Sword of Coming

Cui Dongshan came over to take a seat, three people at a table, master and disciple, master and student.

Cui Dongshan bent down and reached out, took the pot of Xianjia wine buried behind the bamboo building, Chen Pingan also picked up the wine in front of him, and the two drank it in one gulp.

Chen Pingan wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and asked, "When are you leaving?"

Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "The students have never left. Wherever Mr. is, the students have thought to follow."

In the deep night, the boy smiled brightly.

Chen Pingan turned to look at Pei Qian, "Don't learn from him in the future."

Pei Qian was confused, shook his head vigorously and said, "Master, I have never learned it before."

Cui Dongshan held out his thumb.

Pei Qian folded his arms around his chest, trying to show the demeanor of a senior elder sister.

Chen Pingan said: "Chen Ruchu, you put so much effort into it. Guarding against thieves for a thousand days is the most exhausting."

Luopo Mountain is still some distance away from Longquan County City. Although the little girl in Fenqun had the sword talisman cast by Longquan Sword Sect early on, she can be free from wind and wind, but Chen Ruchu likes to shop around when buying things. She is very meticulous. It's not that you can buy it immediately when you go to the county town, it may take a day or two, so she used her own money to buy a house in the county town early on, and the county government office helped to bridge the gap. At a very cost-effective price, I bought a geomantic treasure land, and the neighbors in the neighborhood are all the wealthy portals of Dali Gyeonggi. At that time, the person in charge was just a little-known literary secretary Lang, the assistant official of the former prefect Wu Yuan, but now he is the parent official of Longquan County.

Just like today, Chen Ruchu rested at the county house and waited until the goods were ready tomorrow before returning to Luopo Mountain.

Normally, before leaving Luoba Mountain, Chen Ruchu would hand over a bunch of keys to Zhou Mili or Cen Yuanji in advance.

Cui Dongshan said: "Students do things, sir, don't worry. Dali's spies and slain soldiers are best at making a word. Wei Bo has also asked the northernmost mountain god to be responsible for watching the movement of the county. What's more, Nuanshu girl The magic robe that used the blinding method is an old possession of the student. Even if something happened suddenly, the Dali dead warrior and the mountain god couldn't stop it. With the magic robe alone, Nuan Shu could still block Yuan Yingjian's sword repair one or two times. After the sword, Wei Bo should know that even if the other party wants to die, it will be difficult."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Is this counting as selfishness?"

The stability of some people in Luobashan will inevitably require the contribution of others.

The girl in the pink skirt needs to go out worry-free, and requires Chen Pingan, Cui Dongshan and Wei Bo's careful planning and careful layout.

But on the other hand, he and Cui Dongshan traveled abroad separately, no matter what kind of treacherous and thrilling battles they experienced outside, it was the great contribution of Chen Ruchu, the little housekeeper, to be able to feel at ease when they thought of Luopo Mountain.

There was a time when Chen Pingan would be obsessed with his own calculations, and felt that he was an accountant who weighed pros and cons, calculated gains and losses, and was unwilling to let go of people's hearts.

But looking back now, it’s nothing more than mediocrity. This kind of calculation is not only about money, but also has merits and valuables.

In short, Chen Pingan absolutely does not allow it to bring regrets because of his "unexpectedness" and not "thinking about it".

At that time, what's the use of the kind of angrily shot afterwards, the anger of the common man, and the blood splattered three feet? Can there be few regrets, or no regrets?

The Lost Mountain at his feet now is Chen Pingan's job.

In the future, the blessed land of lotus roots under the eyelids will also be.

Talk about conscience first, and then make money.

Money still has to be earned, after all, money is the courage of heroes and the ladder of practice.

It's just that the sequence can't be wrong.

Cui Dongshan said: "Let's not talk about Mr. and Senior Sister, Zhu Lian, Lu Baixiang, and Wei Xian. With the extra martial arts brought to the Dali Dynasty by Luopo Mountain, even if I ask for a Nascent Soul to be stationed in Longquan County all the year round The city is not an exaggeration. The old bastard will not fart. Take a step back and say, there is no good thing in the world as long as the horse runs and does not feed the horse. Servant, in charge of such a big mess, helping the old bastard stabilize seven or eight fronts, both open and dark, and my brothers need to settle accounts clearly, I didn't open my mouth to the old bastard lion to ask for a salary, it's already Count me kind."

Chen Pingan said nothing.

The "housework" between Cui Dongshan and the old national teacher Cui Chan is not mixed.

Until this moment, Pei Qian didn't realize that there were so many twists and turns on the side of Nuan Shu's little butler. He was a little worried and asked, "Why don't I go shopping with Nuan Shu in the future?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "You are a warrior of the four realms, are you going out to give away the head?"

Pei Qian sighed, knocked his head on the table, slammed his head, didn't raise his head, and said dully: "What's the matter, I practice boxing too slowly, Grandpa Cui said that I am like a turtle crawling, an ant moving, angry Dead man."

Chen Ping'an had a strange expression on his face.

Cui Dongshan said something that made things worse: "Is this worrying? Next, the master sister's martial arts five and six realms will go slower, especially the martial arts issue, which needs to be considered in the long run. It really won't get up soon. "

Pei Qian raised his head and said angrily, "Big White Goose, are you annoying?! Can't you say a few nice words?"

Cui Dongshan asked: "It's so obedient, can it be eaten as a meal?"

Pei Qianli said bluntly: "You can eat! I eat with Mi Li, and I can eat an extra bowl every time. Seeing you, I don't even want to eat."

Chen Ping comforted: "If you are anxious about useless things, don't worry."

Pei Qian immediately shouted: "Master is wise!"

Cui Dongshan turned his head to look at Chen Pingan, "Sir, what's the matter, our geomantic omen in Luoba Mountain has nothing to do with the students?"

Chen Ping pretended not to hear anything, and changed the subject, "I have already talked with Wei Liang, the former emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom, but the new emperor Wei Yan has a lot of ambitions, so you may need to say hello to Wei Xian."

Wei Xian is the founding emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom, and also the first king in the history of Ouhua Blessed Land to visit mountains in search of immortals on a large scale.

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Wei Xian is the lucky one who was taken out of the Ouhua Paradise by Mr., and he is reborn with kindness. Mr. speaks, Wei Xian has no reason to say no."

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Luopo Mountain, within the rules, we must give everyone room and freedom to follow their hearts. It's not that I, Chen Pingan, deliberately want to be a moral sage, I just want to have a clear conscience, but I don't want to be like this for a long time. You won’t be able to keep people, you won’t be able to keep Lu Baixiang today, you won’t be able to keep Wei Xian tomorrow, and you won’t be able to keep that seed master the day after tomorrow.”

Cui Dongshan nodded and said, "Mr. is wise."

Pei Qian said angrily: "Hurry up and change the word, don't steal my example!"

Cui Dongshan shook his head and shook his two big sleeves, "Hey, no. You come and hit me, come on, if I hide for a while, I will have the same surname as the old bastard."

Pei Qian clasped his head in both hands, his head ached. It means that the master is by her side, otherwise she would have already punched.

I never thought that Master would remind me with a smile: "If someone begged you to fight, why didn't you agree to him? Walking in the rivers and lakes, it is a good habit to respond to requests."

Pei Qian's eyes were shining brightly.

Cui Dongshan raised an arm and shook his fingers together in front of him, "Master, I know the magic of the immortal family. If a person who is full of food and drink is used by me to hold the body, tsk tsk tsk, what will happen?" , It’s unimaginable, it’s so beautiful.”

Pei Qian said solemnly: "Master, I think it's better to be harmonious among the same sects, and harmony makes money."

Chen Ping nodded with a smile, "It also makes sense."

Then Chen Pingan said: "Go to bed early, tomorrow the master will give you punches himself."

Pei Qian's eyes widened, "Huh?"

It's not that she's afraid of suffering, but Pei Qian is worried that after the punching, she will reveal her secrets, and show the master a joke in the pitiful surroundings.

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's not that you don't work hard. When you reach the bottleneck of the five realms, you can go down the mountain alone. It's up to you whether you want to call Li Huai or not. Of course, the master agreed. One of your little donkeys will definitely have one."

Pei Qian eagerly said, "Master, it will be 'today' in a while, and you can teach me boxing techniques now."

Chen Ping pressed her little head and pushed it lightly, "I'll talk to Cui Dongshan about something serious."

Pei Qian said aggrievedly: "It's understandable to talk about business with Mr. Zhong. I have something to talk about with the big white goose. Master, I'm not sleepy. If you talk, I'll listen."

Cui Dongshan said, "I don't even listen to Master's words. This is just a warrior of the fourth realm. If he reaches the fifth realm and sixth realm, he will not go to heaven."

Pei Qian refused to move, put his arms around his chest, and said with a sneer: "Separate master and apprentice, what a villain!"

Cui Dongshan said: "Sir, anyway, I can't control it."

Chen Ping put his fingers together and bent slightly, "Does the cerebellum hurt?"

Only then did Pei Qian run away angrily.

After a while, Chen Pingan did not turn his head and said, "Is there any money in the grass?"

Pei Qian, who had been poking his head over there, stood up resentfully, "Master, I was walking halfway just now, and I heard the crickets chirping and caught them. Now I'm running away, so I'm really going to sleep."

Wait until Pei Qian is gone.

Chen Pingan was a little worried, "I know that there is no need to worry, and it is useless to think too much, but it is easiest to persuade others with the truth, but it is really difficult to convince yourself."

Cui Dongshan said softly: "Pei Qian's breakthrough was indeed a little faster, and he had so much martial arts luck. Fortunately, Wei Bo suppressed the weather, and Li Zhu Dongtian is famous for its strange people and strange things, but when Pei Qian himself It is indeed a bit troublesome to go to the rivers and lakes."

Chen Pingan was a little emotional, and said slowly: "However, after listening to her talk about the trip to the blessed land of lotus root, I am still a little happy to be able to think of and say the truth of 'holding the fist'. If you learn from me, then Pei Qian's own rivers and lakes may be eclipsed a lot in the future."

Cui Dongshan said: "Learn well first, and then be yourself, what's wrong? Mr. Mr. himself, these years, isn't that how he came over? All the children in the world don't have any rules in mind, so they learn first. Hurrah, is it good? In the era when the rules are most needed to be remembered, the elders deliberately get close to the younger generation everywhere, chestnut is not willing to part with, and serious words are not willing to part with, I think it is very bad."

Chen Pingan nodded and listened.

Cui Dongshan said: "Are you also worried about Cao Qinglang's future?"

Chen Pingan sighed, "Of course. I don't want to dictate Cao Qinglang's life, nor do I want Cao Qinglang to delay her studies and practice."

Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "It's better to let Zhong Qiu leave the blessed land of lotus root, and take Cao Qinglang with him, let Cao Qinglang and Zhong Qiu live together in the new world, travel far away to study, start from Aquarius Continent first, if it is far away, it won't work Cao Qinglang's aptitude is really good. Mr. Zhong preached and taught careers to solve doubts, and worked hard on the word mellow. Mr.'s friend named Lu Tai also taught Cao Qinglang to stay away from the word pedantic. They complement each other. In the end, it is still kind Qiu Li has an upright body and excellent knowledge, and Lu Tai has a full body of knowledge, miscellaneous but not chaotic, and is willing to respect Zhong Qiu from the bottom of his heart. Cao Qinglang has this kind of atmosphere. Otherwise, Cao Qinglang will be abolished if they each hold their own. In the end, it is still the credit of Mr. Zhang. "

Chen Pingan asked: "If I say that I really want the name Cao Qinglang to be included in the genealogy of our Patriarch Hall in Luoba Mountain, will I be too selfish?"

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Sir, at the small house in the alley, have you ever mentioned this matter to Cao Qinglang?"

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "Of course, I have to ask him about his own wishes first. At that time, Cao Qinglang was just being silly and happy, nodding vigorously, like a chicken pecking at rice, which gave me the illusion that I saw Pei Qian, so I instead A little guilty."

Cui Dongshan laughed loudly and said: "Isn't this just a matter of your love and my wish? If you feel uneasy in your heart, you may wish to think about the many troubles and troubles of cultivating a reading seed in the future? Will it be better?"

After Chen Ping thought about it, he really felt much more at ease.

Then Chen Pingan thought of another child named Zhao Shuxia.

I don't know what happened to that young man learning boxing and walking.

Chen Pingan also attaches great importance to Zhao Shuxia, but Chen Pingan has different concerns and expectations for different juniors.

Zhao Shuxia's way of practicing boxing is actually the one that most resembles him.

Don't rely on everything, only rely on diligence.

Chen Ping likes the pure mind of the young man, the heart of learning boxing, and the pursuit of martial arts.

Chen Ping'an and Cui Dongshan mentioned Zhao Shuxia for the first time, and of course there was the Taoist embryo, the young girl Zhao Luan, and Mr. Wu Shuowen, a fisherman whom he admired very much.

Cui Dongshan said slowly: "The meaning of ancient clumsiness has been the meaning of boxing since ancient times. On top of this, if you can innovate from the old, it is the great skill of martial arts."

Chen Ping smiled and said: "You yourself are not even a martial artist. I can't say enough about you, but for Zhao Shuxia, don't add superfluous things."

Cui Dongshan nodded in agreement.

With him as a student, if you have to take a few more glances in your spare time, you can avoid many accidents.

What's more, Cui Dongshan is too lazy to do those things that are icing on the cake. If he wants to do it, he just does it in a timely manner.

For example, improving the Pima Sect's mountain protection array will increase the power by 20%.

Cui Dongshan naturally retained his strength.

Pi Ma Zong Zhu Quan knew it well, but Zhu Quan still didn't take advantage of his passion to make progress when it came to major events involving the rise and fall of the sect, and he didn't even hint at it, let alone talk about it on Chen Ping'an's side.

Because the Pima Sect couldn't offer the same kind of incense for the time being, or the kind of incense that Cui Dongshan, a student of Chen Ping'an, wanted, Zhu Quan simply didn't speak.

If it was Chen Ping'an, Zhu Quan would definitely say it bluntly, even if it was not enough to settle the settlement with the ancestor of the Pima Sect, then the old lady would pay on credit first, and she, Zhu Quan, would owe the debt without feeling guilty at all.

But Chen Pingan is Chen Pingan, and Cui Dongshan is Cui Dongshan. Even if they are students of their husbands, they all call Luoba Mountain their home.

This is the sense of proportion.

Although Zhu Quan seemed to be incompetent and high-level as the suzerain of the Pima Sect in Bone Beach, it was not enough for the sect, so he could only use the worst choice to lead the way in Qinglu Town , Steadfastly carrying the southward trend of Beijing Guancheng.

But everyone in the world knows that the Pima Sect is a very neat sect on the mountain, with clear grievances and grievances.

This kind of well-known family style and monk reputation is a large amount of immortal money accumulated by the Pima sect invisibly.

During Chen Ping's trip to Beiju Luzhou, he learned a lot of non-book truths from the Pima Sect where Zhu Quan was in charge, and the Padi Peak where the Huolong Daoist has been sleeping soundly.

Chen Pingan took out two pots of glutinous rice wine, one pot for each person.

This time, both of them drank slowly.

With a mountain that has begun to take shape, things will naturally become more.

How to deal with the new governor, Wei Li, and the city god, you need to be careful.

This is by no means a simple matter that Cui Dongshan can get a little bit of good by showing his status as "the leader of the Great Li Lubo Pavilion".

On the back of the fish, Lu Baixiang and Liu Chongrun, who have obtained the water palace and the dragon boat, are already on their way back. Therefore, the two direct disciples of Lu Baixiang, when he arrived at Luopo Mountain, Yuan Baoyuan, the siblings, should be named on the genealogy, but what is more embarrassing is that no patriarchal hall has been built in Luopo Mountain so far, because many For things, he, the owner of the Lost Mountain, must be present, laying the foundation, erecting beams, hanging statues, offering incense, etc., all require Chen Pingan to be present.

Therefore, Chen Ping still needs to stay for a while, first to wait for Lu Baixiang, and then for Zhu Lian to return from Old Dragon City.

Among them, Zhou Mili officially became the right protector of Luoba Mountain, and Chen Pingan had to think deeply about whether it would arouse some people's hearts.

Chen Pingan stood up, "I'm going to ride the dragon alley."

Cui Dongshan smiled and said, "Walking?"

Chen Pingan said: "Pei Qian has a sword talisman issued by Longquan Sword Sect, but I don't have it. It's midnight, so I won't bother Wei Bo. I just happened to stop by to see Zheng Dafeng, who has sprained his ankle."

Cui Dongshan said: "Then I will walk with my husband."

When the two were going down the mountain, Cen Yuanji happened to practice boxing up the mountain.

Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan stood sideways, making way for them.

Cen Yuanji remained silent, his fists flowed freely, and he walked up the mountain with no other distractions.

The two continued down the mountain.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "This little girl is also stubborn, she only looks at Zhu Lian with admiration."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "It shows that Zhu Lian has a good vision for recruiting disciples. The unhealthy tendencies of Luopo Mountain that you brought down, you can rely on Cen Yuan's machine to bring it back a little bit. Cherish it."

Cui Dongshan said helplessly: "If the master is determined to think so, he can feel more at ease, and the students will admit it."

At the foot of the mountain, Chen Pingan knocked on the door, but there was no movement for a long time. Chen Pingan didn't intend to let Zheng Dafeng go, and knocked loudly.

Zheng Dafeng was limping, with sleepy eyes, opened the door, saw Chen Ping'an, pretended to be surprised, and said, "Shanzhu, why didn't you tell me when you went home? You didn't want to walk more than a few steps away." Go? Look down on me, the gatekeeper, right? Since you look down on me, Zheng Dafeng, what's the matter with visiting tonight? I'm sad, sad, and go to bed, so that the mountain master won't be an eyesore to me, and I'll feel bad if I lose it. I have a bowl of rice, and I have to pack up and get out tomorrow. Isn’t it the end? Is it possible that I have to sleep on the streets of the county? It’s going to be winter, and it’s freezing, the mountain owner has the heart? I’ll talk about it later, anyway, I’m just watching the gate. There are important things to talk about, and the mountain master will go to the big things first..."

Zheng Dafeng was about to close the door.

These words were fluent and fluent, without any flaws.

Chen Ping pressed the door with one hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Dafeng, I hurt my leg and foot. Of course I want to say hello to such a big thing."

Zheng Dafeng was full of righteousness, shook his head and said: "It's not a big deal, gentlemen, as long as the third leg is not broken, it's a trivial matter."

One person closes the door, the other presses the door, and there is a stalemate.

Zheng Dafeng murmured: "Sir Shanzhu has broken the boundary and bullies people like this, then I, Zheng Dafeng, will be about to roll around."

Chen Ping angrily said with a smile: "I really have something to talk about."

Zheng Dafeng asked: "Whose business?"

Chen Ping said angrily, "It's not Pei Qian's anyway."

Zheng Dafeng said hello, bowed his head, his legs and feet were in a mess, grabbed Chen Pingan's arm, and pulled him into the gate, "Please come from the mountain owner, the place is not big, the hospitality is not good, don't be disgusted, this matter It’s not that I’m complaining, I like to gossip behind my back, it’s really that Zhu Lian is stingy, the money allocated is a drop in the bucket, look at this house, does it have the slightest style? I'm sorry to say that I'm from the Lost Mountains when I buy wine in town. Zhu Lian, brothers should be brothers, and business should be business. He's a thief!"

Cui Dongshan laughed and said: "It's true that the speaker sheds tears, and the listener is moved."

Zheng Dafeng turned his head and said: "For the sake of little brother Cui, I almost got into a fight with Zhu Lian and Wei Bo about the division of accounts in Ouhua Fudi. After a beating, it was really dangerous and dangerous, but in the end, it still didn't help, and I could only drink dull wine every day, and then accidentally sprained my foot?"

Cui Dongshan nodded with a smile, "I am grateful."

Cui Dongshan stopped, said to go to the mountain gate to wait for Mr., stepped over the threshold, and gently closed the door.

Chen Pingan and Zheng Dafeng sat down respectively, and talked about the soul and soul that they had heard from Li Liu on the Lion Peak.

Zheng Dafeng nodded and said: "There is such a thing, but I don't have to worry about it now."

Then Zheng Dafeng asked: "Why, do you feel that Luoposhan lacks thugs, let me take care? Help Luoposhan grow face?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "You know I don't think so."

Zheng Dafeng said with a smile: "I know I can't, that's why I'm asking this, it's called talking for nothing. Otherwise, I would have gone to the old house to drink the northwest wind."

Chen Pingan said: "I came to you this time because I thought that if you want to relax, you can often go to the Lotus Root Blessed Land to take a look, but it still depends on your own wishes, so I will mention it casually."

Zheng Dafeng nodded, "Half of Mr. Cui's martial arts, deliberately stayed in the lotus root blessed land, and after being promoted to a medium blessed land, after the sudden increase in aura, it will indeed be more interesting there now."

Zheng Dafeng seemed a little moved, rubbing his chin, "I will think about it."

For example, open a brothel with a thriving business over there?

Zheng Dafeng grinned and waved his hands to himself. This kind of immoral thing can't be done. It's not bad to open a wine shop in the downtown area. Hire a few elegant wine girls. A plump woman who sells wine is good, can chat, and can have many repeat customers, otherwise, if I go there, I won’t earn a few dollars, and I am ashamed of Luopo Mountain. The people around him are like the moon, their bright wrists are frosted and snowy, so seductive, as the shopkeeper, he can cross his legs every day and just collect money.

Chen Pingan didn't know what Zheng Dafeng was planning, seeing him just smiling and wiping his mouth from time to time, Chen Pingan felt that something was wrong, so he left.

Zheng Dafeng sent it all the way to the gate. If Chen Pingan hadn't refused, he would have been able to send it all the way to the town.

Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan went away on foot.

Zheng Dafeng sighed, and Chen Ping'an looked normal when he deliberately mentioned Cui Cheng's martial arts earlier.

It's a good thing, but it's not a good thing.

no way.

What kind of person will have what kind of suffering and joy.

As for that Cui Dongshan, Zheng Dafeng didn't want to deal with him too much, he was too good at chess.

Zheng Dafeng didn't go back to sleep, instead he went out the door, hunched, walking under the moonlight, to the mountain gate, leaning against the white jade pillar.

There are no obvious small hills in Luopo Mountain, but if you look closely, there are actually some.

Surrounding Cui Dongshan, there is one.

Lu Baixiang outside the mountain, Wei Xian, yes.

Shirou from Qilong Lane, too.

As long as Cui Dongshan is willing, this mountain can become the largest camp in Luoba Mountain overnight, with many new faces.

But Zheng Dafeng didn't feel that he was a dispensable existence, because those people who surrounded Cui Dongshan with stars and moons, if they wanted to enter Luoba Mountain, especially if they wanted to become the name on the genealogy in the future, at least they had to go through the mountain gate first.

Coincidentally, Zheng Dafeng happened to be a gatekeeper.

As soon as Zheng Dafeng thought of this, he felt that he was really a great person. Luopo Mountain would not be able to do without him. He waited quietly for a long time, but Zheng Dafeng suddenly stomped his feet. Downhill? !

Shi Rou opened the door of the shop, and seeing Chen Ping'an and Cui Dongshan were there, she was a little embarrassed.

If it was just a young mountain master, it would be fine, but with Cui Dongshan by his side, Shi Rou would feel palpitations.

After going to the backyard, Chen Lingjun yawned and stood by the patio.

Chen Pingan asked Shi Rou to open the door of a side room, lit a lamp on the table, took out a large stack of notes, or a landscape map drawn by the government or himself, and began to tell the story of Jidu's departure from the river, and at the same time took out a A black and white chess piece engraved with a name and sect, for example, Li Yuan of the Water Dragon Sect, the Water Goddess of the Nanxun Temple is Bai Zi, and there are also monks such as Tan Ling, Tang Xi, and Song Lanqiao from the easternmost Chunlu Garden in Jidu. There are Yunshang City, Caique Mansion, Duckweed Jianhu, which is relatively located in the middle of Luzhou in Beiju, etc. As for the relatively small number of sunspots, they are mainly from the Yang family of the Chongxuan Department. The chess piece, explained with a smile that the chess piece is like this, but human nature does not pay attention to black and white, I just give a general impression, when you go to the river by yourself, you can’t just follow the rules, or you will suffer a lot .

He looked at the snow-white line on the table that was connected by chess pieces.

Chen Lingjun held back for a long time before whispering, "Thank you."

Chen Pingan was a little surprised, so he laughed and joked: "In the middle of the night, the sun can come out from the west?"

Chen Lingjun became annoyed and said, "Anyway, I've already thanked you, it's up to you whether you appreciate it or not."

Chen Ping'an was a little cheerful, and planned to explain in detail the matters needing attention for Chen Lingjun on this matter, and he had to talk about everything slowly, probably until dawn.

Cui Dongshan narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you with some snacks, this is the route your master sacrificed his life for. There is no one in the world who is more prepared than you to go to the river."

Chen Lingjun looked a little nervous, and tightly grasped the stack of papers in his hand.

Chen Ping waved his hand, "It's not such an exaggeration. During the trip to Beiju Luzhou, traveling is the main thing, and walking the river is the second time. You don't need to be grateful to me, but you must remember that this is the foundation of your way. If you don't care about it, it's about yourself. I'm not responsible. In the past, you and Chen Ruchu belonged to the Jiaolong on Luopo Mountain. If you wanted to bury your head in cultivation, you couldn't exert your strength, so I never said anything, right? But this time, you must change it. With your lazy temper in the past, if I find out afterwards that you dare to take Jidu out of the river and treat it as a joke, I would rather have someone throw you back to Luopo Mountain than let you wander around."

Speaking of this, Chen Pingan said solemnly: "Because you will die over there."

Chen Lingjun nodded, "I know the seriousness."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "I believe in you."

Chen Lingjun looked at Chen Pingan, who had clear eyes and a warm smile.

Chen Lingjun also calmed down.

Chen Ping took out the pen, ink and paper with a smile and put them on the table, "A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. I may have said it in detail and miscellaneously. If you think it is very important and key personnel, write it down. You can take it out and read it at any time when you leave on your way. Check it out."

Cui Dongshan said: "It's just that I didn't go to the river for this uncle myself."

Just as Chen Lingjun was about to take his seat, when he heard this, he stopped, lowered his head, and tightly clutched the paper in his hand.

Chen Ping glanced at Cui Dongshan.

Cui Dongshan raised his hands and said, "I'll just go out and sit."

Cui Dongshan really went out and closed the door, then sat on a bench by the patio, crossed his legs, put his hands on the back of his head, and suddenly roared, "Grandma Shi Rou, where are the melon seeds!"

Shi Rou timidly said: "Now."

She forgot to cover up her feminine voice.

Originally, after staying in Qilong Lane for a long time, Shi Rou almost forgot her own female body, but when she met Cui Dongshan, she was immediately beaten back to her original shape.

Chen Ping patted Chen Lingjun on the shoulder, "Cui Dongshan's words are ugly. I won't help him say anything good. It's really ugly. But you might as well listen to it. Except for those unreasonable troubles, every word that we think is ugly is mostly poked. We can ignore the words that hit our hearts, but we can chew them more in our hearts. Coptis chinensis tastes bitter, but it can clear away heat and heart. That’s all I have to say, anyway, after this separation, even if I want to say, you I want to hear it, but I don’t have a chance for now.”

Chen Lingjun kept it in his heart silently, and then asked in confusion: "Where are you going?"

Chen Ping smiled and said, "The Hanging Mountain, the Great Wall of Sword Qi."

Chen Lingjun complained: "There are a lot of things going on on the mountain, sir, you are the owner of the mountain too much."

He originally wanted to say why he didn't return to Luopo Mountain earlier, but he held back in the end and didn't say anything.

Because he also knows that anyone can say this, but he, Chen Lingjun, is the least qualified.

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Accept the criticism and will not change it for the time being."

Chen Lingjun grinned.

Chen Lingjun sat up with a pen, spread out the paper, and began to listen to Chen Pingan's talk about local customs, customs, and sects.

After Chen Lingjun wrote down a note on the paper, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "Master, will you do this again in the future?"

Chen Ping asked puzzled, "How?"

Chen Lingjun said: "In the future, there will be many people in Luopo Mountain. Master, will you treat everyone like this?"

Chen Pingan thought for a while, shook his head and smiled and said, "It's very difficult. It's hard to avoid the difference between relatives and estrangements. Of course, there are more things to worry about. It doesn't matter if you have to do everything yourself. If there are too many people and the world, it will become more and more complicated. It is impossible for me to do everything myself. I can only try my best to ensure that there is a good atmosphere in Luoluoshan. Everything is right, you should listen to him in everything, if you have no reason to say to him and feel unconvinced, then you can talk to me and I will listen carefully."

Chen Lingjun hummed.

Cui Dongshan grumbled outside: "Sir, students are best at convincing others with virtue."

Chen Lingjun rolled his eyes.

Chen Pingan continued to tell Chen Lingjun about going to the river.

Sure enough, after this nagging, it was dawn.

Chen Lingjun also wrote down dozens of crooked key items.

Chen Ping'an clicked his tongue and said, "Chen Lingjun, your handwriting...is far worse than Pei Qian's."

Chen Lingjun blushed, "I don't copy books every day. If I copy books for so long, the words I write should at least sell a copybook for a few Xiaoshu money... snowflake money!"

Chen Ping asked with a smile: "Do you believe it yourself?"

Chen Lingjun was devastated.

In the end is thin-skinned.

Chen Pingan sat on the bench with his hands covered in sleeves, closed his eyes, thought about it, and checked to see if there was anything missing, but if he didn't, he planned to think of it later and write another letter to Chen Lingjun.

Opening his eyes, Chen Ping asked casually, "How is your Brother Yujiang Water God?"

Chen Lingjun shook his head, "That's it."

Chen Pingan said: "Before leaving for Beiju Luzhou, you can actually take a trip to the Yujiang River to tell others that you should drink and eat, but don't talk about going to the river by yourself, just say that you are going on a long trip. Sincerely When dealing with people, it’s not about telling the truth about everything and not covering it up. It’s about not causing trouble to others, and doing what you can to help them solve some troubles, but you don’t need others to say thank you to you.”

Chen Lingjun put away the pen and paper, lay down on the table with a sad expression, "In the past, I didn't want to do this, just drink and eat meat, and brag loudly."

Chen Ping said with a smile: "The world will not always let us save our worries and effort. Think about it, it is not a bad thing."

Chen Lingjun hesitated for a long time, did not dare to look at Chen Pingan, and said cautiously: "If I said that I really don't want to go to the river, I don't want to go to Luzhou in Beiju, and I just want to stay on Luopo Mountain to eat and die, would you be very upset?" angry?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said nothing, as if he already knew the answer.

Chen Lingjun fell silent, not daring to look at Chen Pingan.

Chen Ping said, "Don't be angry."

Chen Lingjun sat up suddenly, with a look of disbelief, "Really?"

Chen Pingan laughed and said: "From the very beginning, I never thought about going to the river, because it is a great thing, you Chen Lingjun must leave immediately, no matter the weather, you can go to the river with your head buried. I even think that someday you will not be alone I really want to go to the river, so there is no need to worry about this matter at all, and the Jidu River can’t escape. In fact, you have to wait until the day you really understand it, and then go to Jidu, compared to being ignorant now , It is more likely to be successful if you deal with it completely as an errand. But having said that, Chen Lingjun's obscenity is an inevitable path for you, Chen Lingjun, and it is difficult to bypass it. It is not a bad thing to do more preparations now."

Chen Ping paused for a moment, "You may find it harsh to say so, but I should tell you my true thoughts. As Cui Dongshan said, there are so many dragons in the world, mountains, wilds, lakes, and lakes, but not everyone has them." Opportunities can be taken away. So if you know very well in your heart that this matter should not be delayed, but you are just used to being lazy and unwilling to move your nest to suffer, I will be very angry. But if you think this matter is nothing at all So what if I don't go to Jidu, I, Chen Lingjun, have my own way to go, or I think that I, Chen Lingjun, just like to stay on Luopi Mountain, and I am happy to stay on Luopi Mountain for the rest of my life. Not angry at all."

Chen Lingjun smiled and said, "Understood."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Every time Chen Ruchu goes shopping in the county, you will secretly protect her. I am very happy, because this is responsibility."

Chen Lingjun was a little ashamed, "I just wandered around casually! Who told the master so rudely, let's see if I don't slap him..."

Cui Dongshan said lazily outside the door: "Me."

Chen Lingjun was dumbfounded.

Chen Lingjun trotted over to open the door, tiptoed to Cui Dongshan, rubbed his shoulders, and asked softly: "Brother Cui, you have sat hard all night, where is your tiredness, you must tell my little brother, we are all family members who love each other, It's outrageous to be too polite! Is the strength in this little brother's hand too light or too heavy?"

Chen Ping crossed the threshold, kicked Chen Lingjun's ass, and cursed with a smile: "You also have a share of the geomantic omen of Lupo Mountain!"

The Caotou shop next to Qilong Lane has also opened.

It was the girl nicknamed Jiu'er.

Chen Ping greeted with a smile, "Jiu'er, where are your master and brother?"

The girl hurriedly cast a blessing, and said pleasantly, "Master Chen Shan."

Then he blushed a little, and said: "Master has been running the business, and he is getting older, so he will get up later. I will open the door today. It was not like this before. Brother has been going to the mountains to collect medicine for several days, and it will probably be later Only then can we return to Riding Dragon Lane."

Jiu'er was going to call Master, after all, the Mountain Lord came in person, even if Master complained and scolded him, he should inform him.

Chen Pingan stopped Jiu'er and said with a smile, "Don't bother the Taoist chief to rest, I'm just passing by to see you."

Jiu'er was a little nervous, "Master Chen Shan, the business of the shop is not very good."

Chen Pingan said: "It's okay, the business here at Caotou Shop is actually pretty good. If you continue to work hard, go to Luopo Mountain if you have something to do. Don't be embarrassed. This sentence, you must help me bring him the wine later. Old man, the Taoist priest is a kind man, even if something really happens, he likes to carry it on his shoulders, which is actually not good, as the whole family does not talk about each other. By the way, I won’t sit in the shop anymore, I still have some things to do.”

Jiu'er, who just opened the door, wrapped his hands quietly around, rubbed them together, and said softly, "Chen Shanzhu really doesn't want a cup of tea?"

Chen Ping waved his hands and said with a smile: "If you really don't want to drink, let's just treat it as a spare."

Jiu'er smiled.

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Jiu'er's complexion is much better than before, which means that the water and soil in my hometown still support people. I used to worry that you would not get used to living here, but now I can rest assured."

Jiu'er blushed a little.

Chen Ping waved goodbye.

Take Cui Dongshan along the steps of Riding Dragon Lane to the ancestral house in Niping Lane.

This route must first pass through the Gu family's ancestral house. Chen Pingan stopped and asked, "Where is Uncle Gu?"

Cui Dongshan said: "It's hard for an honest official to break up housework. But now Gu Tao has become the mountain god of the old mountain in Dali, and his merits and virtues are considered complete. A woman in the county city needs the wind and the rain. Gu Can You are doing well in Shujian Lake, your son is promising, and your husband has reached the sky in one step. A woman, living a good life, has many problems, so she naturally hides them."

Chen Pingan continued on, "The house with the beautiful water and high wind plaque?"

Cui Dongshan said slowly: "That female ghost in the wedding dress? Poor ghost, fell in love with a poor person. The former has become hateful, but the latter is really pitiful. Academician, he was cheated miserably, and ended up committing suicide by throwing himself into the lake. An infatuated person who originally only wanted to earn the title of sage by learning in the academy, hoped that this could be used in exchange for the imperial court's approval and imperial seal, so that he could marry a It's a pity that she was born too early, in Dali back then, not in Dali today. Otherwise, there would be two completely different endings. That female ghost is a filthy ghost after all in the academy, so naturally She couldn't even get in the gate, she had to force her way in, and she almost lost her mind. In the end, she was not stupid enough to go home, and she spent the only remaining incense with the Dali court, so she took away the scholar's bones, and you know The truth that has been buried for a long time, it turns out that the scholar never failed her affection, and even died because of it, she went completely crazy. After Gu Tao left her mansion, she took a coffin and stumbled all the way back there. By the side, she took off her wedding dress and put on a plain suit, and she was just in a daze every day, saying that she was waiting for someone."

Chen Pingan asked: "How to calculate right and wrong here?"

Cui Dongshan stretched out one palm, cut a few times in the air with a knife in his hand, and said with a smile: "It depends on where to go, as the beginning and the end respectively. Start with female ghost scholars meeting each other and love each other, and start with female ghost scholars. The ghost killed so many scholars as the ending, it is very simple, a slap is afraid of killing her, and now she doesn't want to live, it's over. But if we look forward, judging from the female ghost's landscape achievements, from her temperament It will be very troublesome if goodness starts to calculate. If she still thinks that she will be able to realize her mistakes and correct her mistakes, and make up for the world in the next hundred or hundreds of years, it will be even more troublesome. If you think about the problem from a different angle, it is... a big trouble."

When Cui Dongshan said this, he asked: "Dare to ask, sir, which part of the beginning and end do you want to intercept?"

Chen Pingan did not give an answer.

When Chen Ping took out the key to open the door of the ancestral house, Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Then, have you ever thought about a question, what is wrong with Mr. Yu?"

After Chen Pingan opened the door, he smiled and said, "Think about it again."

After opening the door, Chen Pingan took out two small benches.

After sitting down, Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "On the mountain, there is a very ambiguous saying, 'There is a reason for going up the mountain to practice Taoism, and it turns out that they are all gods'."

Chen Pingan said, "I've heard of it."

Cui Dongshan said: "When ordinary people hear this, they only feel that the world is unfair and treats themselves too poorly. People who think this way are actually not gods. Apart from resentment, it is actually the most appropriate to feel sad for themselves. "

Chen Pingan kept silent, and drew a circle with a tiny gap on the muddy floor of the courtyard with his toes, and then drew a larger circle outward, "There must be a way to go, so that everyone will have the opportunity to choose."

Cui Dongshan was silent for a moment, and then slowly opened his mouth, "Except for the first time, Mr. has never experienced real despair in his life since then."

Chen Ping'an kept silent, with his hands wrapped around his sleeves, slightly bent over, and looked outside the open Niping Lane.

Cui Dongshan continued: "For example, Liu Xianyang was still dead back then."

Cui Dongshan added: "For example, Qi Jingchun is actually the mastermind behind the scenes, the person who schemes the most."

Cui Dongshan continued: "Another example is that Mr. Gu Can made Mr. Gu feel that he knew that he had made a mistake and corrected it, only to find out afterwards that it was not the case. Another example is that Pei Qian returned to the blessed land of lotus roots for the first time, killed Cao Qinglang, and then chose Waiting to die, the bet is that the husband will not kill her."

Chen Ping finally said: "Set up a small world, I have something in my heart, and I can't express it."

Cui Dongshan drew a golden thunder pool with his flying sword.

Chen Pingan stood up, covered his sleeves with both hands, and walked around the yard with his fists, and said softly: "After Mr. Qi died, he was still defending me, because on me, there was a dispute between the three religions that Mr. Qi intentionally caused." .I know."

Cui Dongshan stood up, his face turned slightly pale, and said, "Mr. shouldn't have known the truth so early!"

Chen Pingan turned his head, looked at Cui Dongshan, and said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, I am very smart and calm. So Mr. Qi will not lose, and neither will I, Chen Pingan."
