Sword of Coming

Chen Ping glanced at the green bamboo scabbard on the waist of the uninvited guest, pretending to be puzzled, and asked, "Swordsman?"

The man held the hat in one hand and patted the hilt of the knife with the other, said with a slight smile: "I can't find a sword that doesn't match me for the time being, so I had to use it instead to humiliate the world's swordsmen."

Hearing this somewhat familiar tone, Chen Ping was relaxed, thinking that Liu Baqiao should be able to make good friends with this man.

Behind Chen Ping and Li Baoping, the father and daughter walked slowly side by side. The girl Zhu Lu was a bit disapproving and said with a smile: "The dragon king yawns and can breathe in a river. It's a big breath, dad, this Does the guy have a brain problem?"

Zhu He saw a silver white wine bottle gourd hung on the other side of the man’s waist, palm-size, and it was slick and shiny. At first glance, it was an old object of some years. He whispered to his daughter: "Although I can’t notice What’s wrong with his qi machine, it’s just a bit longer than ordinary people, but you still need to be careful. Although Dad has never traveled far in his life, I heard Old Ancestor talked about a lot of anecdotes about the rivers and lakes, saying that he was walking the rivers and lakes, be careful Daoist Nun Old monks, children and alcoholics, apart from this, the more you look at roles that don’t look like Grandmaster Expert, the less you can take it lightly."

The girl gave a cry, both nervous and excited, wishing that the unimposing in appearance man was an assassin killer, just as her fledgling grinding blade stone.

Chen Ping asked: "Are you looking for me?"

The man grinned said with a smile: "I will send you to the border of the Great Sui Dynasty. Before that, we walked with each other so that we could take care of it."

Chen Ping asked tentatively: "Do you know Master Ruan who strikes iron?"

The man nodded said: "Of course I do."

Chen Ping is relaxed again.

Before leaving the town, as one of the transactions, Master Ruan promised himself that he would guarantee his safety before reaching the Ye Fu Mountain Pass, the military school of thought on the border of the Great Li Dynasty.

Chen Ping believes that Master Ruan will not break his promise, especially since this person appeared so early, almost under the nose of Master Ruan, so it should not be one of the three forces of Righteous Sun Mountain, Red-Clouds Mountain and Old Dragon City.Moreover, the timely appearance of Zhu He Zhu Lu, father and daughter, also gave Chen Ping a lot of confidence.

However, Chen Ping is afraid of 10000 one.

So he asked: "Then you accompany me to meet Master Ruan in the town, shall we leave for the next south? I just know that the east gate of the town is actually going out. Although there is a detour, there is a post road that works. You can walk, but it's faster than us crossing the mountains."

The man smiled and said, "So cautious? You don't have the boldness of the children of the world at all."

Chen Ping did not turn his head, his eyes were fixed on the man, but said solemnly: "Zhu He, can you let Zhu Lu take Baoping back to the town first. We are not in a hurry."

Zhu He figured out the joints at once, nodded said: "This is the best way."

Then Zhu He said to his daughter: "Lu'er, you take the Young Lady back first. Chen Ping and I will accompany this Ah Liang brother. Whether it is drinking or discussing, meeting is a fate, it is not too much."

The little girl in the red cotton-padded jacket held by Zhu Lu did not hesitate, did not cry and shouted to be with her Little Master-uncle, she just pulled Chen Ping's sleeve, and said two words carefully. , And then decisively followed Zhu Lu and walked away quickly. Li Baoping did not slouch. Instead, the servant girl of the newborn calves do not fear tigers was disappointed and hoped that she would change positions with her father.

After seeing this scene of life and death, the man rolled the eyes, took off the bottle gourd, leaned against the white donkey, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "Let the little girl take the little girl and go first That is, after an incense stick of time, we three big Lords will go to the town again."

Then the man raised the silver white wine bottle gourd in his hand, reached out to the back of the patted donkey, looked at Zhu He, and asked with a smile: "You are also a good player, don't you recognize this thing?"

He patted his head, "Forget that your Black Pearl Paradise just opened, you know it's a weird thing. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, we can talk slowly and spend a lot of time."

The man pointed to the Old Liu tree across the river, "Shall we go there and sit and talk?"

Chen Ping and Zhu He looked at each other and thought it was the best, and they could watch the change.

The man took the white donkey, followed Chen Ping and Zhu He, and went to the Old Liu tree, loosened the reins, and let the donkey eat the grass at will. He walked up to the willow tree, walked out of the river bank along the main trunk, and finally sat down Next, after putting on the hat again, he mentioned the bottle gourd of silver liquor, and was about to put his head up to pour the wine, suddenly turned his head, handed out the jug, and asked with a smile: "Who wants a bite? It's not as good as the others. , 2 silver taels, the immortal brew, is the favorite of all wealthy people in the Great Sui Dynasty. I went all the way north and drank and tasted more than 2 kinds of wine. This immortal brew is the most authentic."

Chen Ping shook his head, "I don't drink."

Zhu He also shook his head, "Before the Great Accomplishment of martial arts, I dare not drink."

The man shook his head, looked at them, and said with regret: "It turns out that I am not a man of temperament. I met a Young Hero not long ago. It is really suave..."

The man suddenly found that Chen Ping and Zhu He had weird faces. He was a little confused, but he didn't want to lose his expert style, so he had to take a sip of wine to hide his confusion.

Chen Ping coughed slightly, and the man asked, "What's the matter?"

Chen Ping extend the hand refers to the outermost part of the Old Liu tree with crooked neck.

The man was frowned, turned his head and looked around, and saw that his eyes were blocked by two legs. The man's face was instantly stiff, and he suddenly raised his head. He saw an expressionless middle-aged man, at least has 2 fifty-sixty. Standing lightly on the top of a willow tree that was not thick and thin, this person's appearance and disappear unpredictably scared the man with a hat to sit unsteadily, fell into the stream, and was extremely embarrassed.

The visitor is the Military School of Thought Saint Ruan Qiong. As Old Head Yang said, he is not interested in the movement within 1000 miles of mountains and rivers, unless it is Cui Chan’s provocation against the rules and the sword-making Ruan Qiong. Will shoot. Ruan Qiong didn’t think anyone would dare to be within 100 li, so he shot Chen Ping. It was just hitting him in the face of Ruan Qiong, but the face of a Military School of Thought sword cultivator on the 1th floor was compared to a dynasty. His face is more important than light.So Ruan Qiong simply didn't bother to pay attention to the situation here. A straw-shoe youngster and an innocent little girl were traveling together. How could it be worth his personal attention?

But Ruan Qiong was involved in one thing.

When someone shook the object, Ruan Qiong immediately felt the majestic sword energy contained within the object, pure and vast, especially feeling extremely familiar, with a touch of intimacy and sorrow. Regarding this matter, Ruan Qiong was sect I have been cultivation for many years. Although I have never seen it with my own eyes, I have heard of it for a long time, so I immediately came from the blacksmith shop.

At this time, seeing that the man was inferior to the ordinary master's attitude, Ruan Qiong was not ridiculed, but a bit more solemn, and asked: "But the god Immortal Platform Wei Jin?"

The man who fell into the creek swooped and finally stood up straight. After picking up the hip flask from the creek, he took off the hat on his head and shook it. He looked up at the culprit, said ill-humoredly: "My name is Ah. Liang ."

Ruan Qiong stared at him condescendingly, full of scrutiny, and asked, "Can you lend me two sips of wine?"

The man threw out the bottle gourd and threw it at Ruan Qiong, "Why not? But remember to pay me back."

Ruan Qiong took the jug, took a sip of wine, and asked with a smile, "It's not 5 rice wine?"

As soon as the man heard this, he became very angry, and said with a blank look: "The price has increased."

Ruan Qiong laughed heartily, threw back the bottle gourd, and asked: "Why are you here so fast? I thought it would take about ten years at the earliest."

The man calling himself Ah Liang walked ashore wet, foul-mouthed and said, "You can control it? Saint is amazing."

Ruan Qiong asked, "Would you like to sit in my shop? My daughter admires you very much."

Ah Liang pointed to himself, laughed and said, "To me? Then your daughter has a good vision."

Ruan Qiong seemed to have known the absurdity of this person for a long time, and asked, "Could it be that you are in charge of Dragon Ridge Mountain this time?"

Ah Liang waved his hand, "It's not me, someone else."

Ruan Qiong looked at the uninterested man with a hat and suddenly laughed, "is it possible that on the way north, you met that little daoist aunt?"

Ah Liang's face remained as usual, "I don't understand what you said."

Ruan Qiong sighed in his heart, no more temptation, no more talk.

The Snow Wind Temple of Ruan Qiong origin has a well-known sword cultivator who is young and talented and rarely stays in the sect. Even in Snow Wind Temple, some people do not know the name of this person.When he was young, he was photographed by a Snow Wind Temple Old Ancestor who traveled down the mountain as a retreat discipline, so his seniority was extremely high. When he went up the mountain for the first time, he was not as old as the crown, and many 100-year-old cultivators were required. Call him obediently to his ancestor. Later, the ZTE Old Ancestor of Snow Wind Temple failed to break through the barrier, and this lineage talent withered, the young sword cultivator became even more alienated from Snow Wind Temple.

This person walked the rivers and lakes at every turn for 7 years, except occasionally when he was on Master’s death, he was still alone. Even when he returned to Snow Wind Temple, he never greeted anyone.I heard that he got a priceless Nurturing Sword Gourd very early, but he didn’t use it to warm the Flying Sword, instead he was reckless waste of natural resources, which was used to hold 8 1000 kilograms of alcohol, and at least has half a year to drink a lot. Drunken, so known as Drunken Sword Immortal, when he gets drunk, he is carried by a snow-white donkey, wherever the donkey goes.

Before Ruan Qiong left Snow Wind Temple, I heard that this person, for some reason, fell in love at first sight to a young Daoist Nun known as "Good Fortune". Since then, he has been stuck in it. The beautiful Daoist Nun has no intention of looking for a Taoist couple, and this incident has become a sensational mountain anecdote for Aquarius Continent.

Ruan Qiong thought for a while, "If that's the case, you can send them to the Great Li Dynasty Ye Fu Mountain Pass."

The man was nodded.

Ruan Qiong cup one fist in the other hand farewell, the body flashed and died.

Only the willow branches shook gently.

Zhu He cautiously asked: "Ah Liang... is the immortal of Snow Wind Temple?"

The man held the donkey and lazily said: "I am not familiar with Snow Wind Temple."

Zhu He smiled, not at all embarrassed.

Martial Artists in the world may not look good on Qi Refiner, but for the cultivators of Snow Wind Temple and True Martial Mountain, you still have to give your thumbs up.

Before, Zhu He might think that the population is bigger than the sky, and the posture is pretentious, but after Saint Ruan Qiong came and went, Zhu He now looks back and sees this plain-looking man with a hat is really a daoist. , Divine Immortal hides in the city.It is estimated that the long green bamboo scabbard must be a Divine Weapon as long as the sword is pulled out of the sheath.

Ah Liang drink a mouthful of wine warmed up and said to Chen Ping: "That little girl is back."

Chen Ping turned his head and looked around. Not only did Li Baoping and Zhu Lu return the same way, there were also two familiar faces and a mule with a heavy bag hanging on two sides.

Li Huai and Lin Shouyi.

Chen Ping trot over, Li Baoping looked sullen and Zhu Lu opened the mouth and said: "These two children were met halfway through, saying that they are going to study at Mountain Cliff Academy with Young Lady. We Old Ancestor just now Showed up and said hello, let me look back for you."

Chen Ping didn't ask Zhu Lu who the so-called Old Ancestor was. He looked at the ghostly Li Huai and Lin Shouyi who looked like a young master.

Li Huai stiffened his neck and said confidently: "I'm not going to eat with you, do you beggar in a small town?"

Lin Shouyi still looked cold and said: "danger lurks within the riches and honour."

Li Baoping coldly snorted and said: "You can start from the east gate and go to the academy by yourself. Why should Little Master-uncle and I bring you two oil bottles?"

Li Huai angrily said: "Li Baoping! We are friends who have lived and died together in adversity!"

Lin Shouyi is not as rascal as Li Huai, and said frankly: "Li Huai and I don't even talk about Mountain Cliff Academy, even the Great Li Dynasty border."

Chen Ping nodded, gently pressed Li Baoping's head with his hand to stop her from speaking, and then asked: "Then Shi Chunjia and Dong Shuijing are two, are you sure they are not coming?"

Lin Shouyi explained: “Someone will take Shi Chunjia to the Capital at the New Year Shop. Dong Shuijing heard that in the future, the small town and township school will open again and replace your part-time job at the blacksmith shop.”

Chen Ping looked at Li Baoping, Li Huai, and Lin Shouyi, three schools of ignorant child, said with a smile: "Then let's leave together."

Ah Liang brought the white donkey back from the stream, and when he saw Li Huai Lin Shouyi, he reluctantly said, "Just bring a cute little girl, but what's the matter with you two bastard?"

Li Huai yelled: "Which green onion are you?!"

Ah Liang face doesn't change replied: "I am your long-lost father, my dear father."

Li Huai as if was struck by lightning, staring at this strange man.

On the contrary, the man was stunned. Does this Little Bastard and his parents really have an ulterior story?

Li Huai quickly changed the original sluggish expression, tugging at the corner of his mouth, and squinting at the man in the hat with a look of disgust, whispered: "Fight with me?"

The man slumped, tsk tsk said: "Yeah, there are so many little bastard in shallow water."

Li Huai hugged the back of his head with both hands, and muttered: "If you don't listen to bastard chanting."

Chen Ping asked for no reason, "Ah Liang, why do you speak our small town dialect?"

The man smiled and said, "Go ask Ruan Qiong."

Chen Ping looked at him and suddenly smiled, "Forget it."

The man pointed his finger at Chen Ping, and taught: "It's not good to have such a heavy mind at a young age."

Ah Liang, who claims to be a swordsman but wears a sword, and his white donkey.

Chen Ping and Li Baoping each carrying a basket, Li Huai and Lin Shouyi with two empty hands, and Zhu He Zhu Lu and his daughter walking in the back.

Seven people with different identities went south together.

This is because Ah Liang, who is from the same place as Master Ruan, said that the road was not difficult when he came, and he went south along the Iron Mark River, and soon you can see the Great Li Dynasty Post Road being built day and night.

However, Ah Liang is still willing to listen to Chen Ping's advice for the rest and rest.

During the break, Li Huai ran to ask the man in the hat, not afraid of life at all, and asked with his arms akimbo, "Hey! Ah Liang, is your donkey male or female?"

The guy doesn’t hate this child, but is a bit annoying, "mind your own business."

"Give me a ride?"

"I don't want to ride myself, why are you? I really think I am my own son."

"If you send the donkey to me, what if I turn around and let my mother remarry? Of course, if my mother doesn't agree, I can't blame me, the donkey still has to go to me."

"Fuck you and your mother!"

"Ah Liang, it's not that I said you, your temper will change in the future."

Li Huai shook his head and sighed and left after holding both hands.

Leave an eye-opening man with a hat.

----

By the stream, two people walked to the blacksmith shop. One was Ruan Qiong, and the other was an old man with gray hair but with a red light face. The latter was the Old Ancestor in the mouth of servant girl Zhu Lu, one of the four largest surnames in the town, Li. The true backbone of

Li Baoping, such a beloved Li Clan, who has high hopes for him, of course will not only let the father and daughter be personally obedient. If it weren't for Master Ruan to show up today, Refining Qi's successful Li Family Old Ancestor would escort him all the way to Ye. Fu Mountain Pass.

The old man said with a bitter smile: "Master Ruan, this person is your helper from Snow Wind Temple? It looks like..."

Ruan Qiong blunt said: "It's not like an expert at all, it's like a gangster, right?"

Ruan Qiong slowly said: "When I took the bottle gourd and drank, I carefully inspected it. The Life Source sword energy in the Nurturing Sword Gourd is still alive. It is indeed the true story of Snow Wind Temple, and Snow Wind Temple. God Immortal Platform this lineage, there are few people, and Wei Jin is a cold temper who doesn't like to associate with people. Instead, he likes to roam the rivers and lakes. He has a strange temperament. It is easy to explain. Although there are also insidious means of successfully seizing Life Source objects after murder. , But Wei Jin’s cultivation base is definitely not low. He wants to take away Nurturing Sword Gourd and the wisp of sword energy from him smoothly..."

Ruan Qiong laughed, "Then even if Ruan Qiong shoots today, I can't stop what that person wants to do."

The old man sighed, "You can't say that. If the Three Sects family doesn't take away the overwhelming thing and Formation is still there, Master Ruan won't have to be so restrained about many things."

Ruan Qiong thought for a while, "Later, I will still go to meet the people from Snow Wind Temple Giant Salamander Ravine lineage to find out about the situation. They are not far from here. It just happened to be about Dragon Ridge Mountain carve up the Slaying Dragon Platform. In front of True Martial Mountain, it’s hard to say straight. During this period, if there is any accident in the town, trouble Old Li to find Xiuxiu and let her fly sword messenger."

Snow Wind Temple, True Martial Mountain, is the Eastern Aquarius Continent 2 Military School of Thought Ancestral Court, one north and one north, the relationship between the two sides has been good or not, and it belongs to everyone minds their own business. Of course, at the critical moment involving big right and wrong, Will definitely give up the view of the door and choose to join hands against the enemy.

Among them, True Martial Mountain pays more attention to the development of secular dynasty under the mountain. The Great Li Dynasty has many True Martial Mountain cultivators. The destroyed Lu Dynasty and the Great Sui Dynasty Gao Clan all have the shadow of True Martial Mountain cultivators, most of which are general battlefields. The personal obedience, or the middle-level generals with real power.

Snow Wind Temple tends to take care of itself, traveling to and from the major Ancient Battlefield sites, a bit similar to the knight-errant on the rivers and lakes, with a superb martial arts, 10000 reasons, happy, extinguish demons, and extinguish demons. Just find people to learn the sword technique, and most of them rush into Mountain Sect without asking. The owner agrees or not, and they have to accompany them in a fight and talk about other things.But Snow Wind Temple, these weird-tempered guys, are not famous for fighting, let alone killing, so even if they are covered in dirt by Snow Wind Temple’s cultivator, they don’t have to worry about their family scandals.

Regarding the Flying Sword, the old man doubted: "Master Ruan, there are also several flying Swords with good quality in my house..."

Master Ruan smiled and waved his hand. "It's different, it's not a small difference."

The old man immediately understood, and said with a face: "Talking about Flying Sword in front of Master Ruan, it's laughable and generous."

Ruan Qiong suddenly sighed softly: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps going."

----

A dainty and delicate but plump palace woman walking in Mud Bottle Alley.

There were 3 people behind him, a middle-aged man with a burly figure and a resolute expression.

An old man with a bearless white face seems to have weak eyesight, always squinting.

A young woman was carrying a long sword, and the golden sword spikes just curled up on her plump breast.

The woman finally stopped at the gate of Song Jixin's house and said with a smile: "Only Cui Chan can do things like stealing Spring Festival couplets."
