Sword of Coming

When the scholar woke up, he had a splitting headache and found himself on the edge of a cliff. Not far away was a long iron cable bridge with two branches hanging from the head and tail of a snake, swaying slightly in the mountain wind.

The robe called Bai Jing Taotie on his body was gone, and the family's secret talisman that was originally stored in his sleeve naturally fell into other people's pockets.

Moreover, he was tied up with a golden demon-binding rope. When he lowered his head, he saw that his rank was not low. He actually used two dragon beards. The age of the old dragon was definitely not low. The so-called dragon beards of the bronze lake silver carp were comparable to In comparison, maybe it was the Moon Palace species of the Summer Empress who met the real Guanghan Palace toad? Maybe not that exaggerated, but not far off.

The scholar couldn't help but laugh.

There was no struggle.

Because there are two natal flying swords hovering between the eyebrows and the center of the back, one behind the other.

Fortunately, as long as he doesn't wake up from the resurrected lotus lantern in his ancestral hall, it's not the worst outcome.

The scholar sighed, "Good brother, I borrowed something. Please remember to return it to me later."

Not far away, a young ranger wearing a bamboo hat was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, practicing setting up a sword furnace.

The man remained silent.

The scholar continued: "Good brother, your habit of taking off people's clothes is not very good. Is the dragon robe worn by the Bone King in the Summer Empress's treasure house, as I said, destroyed at the touch of a touch? That Qing Dynasty The robe of the Dezong female cultivator, I’m not lying to you, is of extremely ordinary quality. It is the same as the ceremonial wine bowl from the Dezong ancestral hall of the Qing Dynasty. It is just a spiritual weapon and cannot be sold for a good price unless it is Only when I meet those monks who like to collect robes can I make some money."

Chen Pingan never responded.

The scholar was not the slightest bit angry. He just lost a robe that could not be seen in the light. He was not naked. The three golden talismans inside made him feel a little distressed. One of them belonged to the side branch of the Mountain Talisman and was called the Bixiaofu Talisman. It could be transformed into A monk is in the palace of the true king of Thunder City. He can withstand several blows from Yuanying's natal magic weapon. If he replaces it with golden elixir, he will probably not be able to break open the door within half a stick of incense. A jade-clear light talisman was thrown out by the monk. It illuminated the underworld and shook demons and ghosts. It had a huge range and covered the world for several miles. It was not aimed at the great monks and was specifically used to break the formation and rescue the siege.

The last one, the most precious one, is the secret among the family's secrets, the Yunxiao Slaying Talisman. The talisman's gall contains four priceless divine lights. Once it is taken, it is the four ancient gods of Thunder God, Lightning Mother, and Feng Boyu Master. The dharma forms of the gods all appeared and struck together.

Previously in the backyard of Guanghan Hall in Huoluo Mountain, this was the talisman that the scholar was twisting in his sleeve.

But at that time, the opponent was also naughty and had some hidden moves in his sleeves. The scholar couldn't tell the depth of the opponent, and the distance between the two sides was so close. The power of the talisman was too great, and he would cut off half of the entire peeling mountain at every turn. He didn't want to kill the enemy. He had suffered a loss of eight hundred, and he had no chance of leaking his traces, so he suppressed his murderous intention.

As for the talisman that was later broken by this person's sword, the killing power was still quite high, but it was not as spectacular as the Yunxiao Kankan talisman. Moreover, it did not belong to the secrets of the family. It was the caretaker of a talisman sect in Luzhou, Beiju. This skill is specifically designed to restrain swordsmen in the world, so in fact, until that moment, the scholar had not been forced by the group of monsters to use his special skills, he just looked at him in embarrassment.

His real thought before was to deliberately create a big noise visible from the mountains, because the scholar concluded that the man would sneak back secretly and hide somewhere quietly, and then he might look at the situation and wait for an opportunity to assassinate him.

Why didn't the scholar show his weakness to the enemy and take advantage of the situation to kill him?

It's a pity that God did not fulfill his wishes.

It’s true that the Tao is higher than the devil.

The opponent's sword was very strange, too strange. A golden Dizu Palace Sword Locking Talisman failed to lock the opponent's long sword successfully, so the Earth Escape Technique that he was ready to attack and the second Cutting Talisman in his sleeve would be of no use to the hero, otherwise Fu Churen escaped, but the opponent was seriously injured even if he was not dead. He could have been left to the demons to take care of him, but he was still alive?

And that guy was even more sloppy. He even temporarily fainted and forcibly seized the dominant power of most of the soul. He dropped all defenses against this person. What was the result? Wasn't it because the opponent gave him a black punch without hesitation, causing him to end up like this?

But luckily among the misfortunes, the other party did not decisively kill people and steal goods, destroying the corpses and destroying all traces.

Isn't this a little blessing accumulated by the other party's mercy?

Otherwise, when he wakes up in the family, although he barely saves his life, the loss of one soul and one soul will be a huge price, and the avenue will be fundamentally damaged. Even if the family has a secret method to make up for it, it will delay the breakthrough for at least a hundred years. How can the family then Spare this person lightly, let alone pursue him for thousands of miles. Even if you are the direct descendant of the other continent sect, you will still be pursued across continents. If it takes ten years, it will take a hundred years.

The Yang family of Yunxiao Palace in the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty has always been recognized throughout the continent as being extremely grateful for kindness, repaying kindness extremely hard, holding grudges for a long time, and taking revenge extremely ruthlessly.

No matter how valuable the three gold-made ancestral hall talismans or the hundred-eyed Taotie robe are that are left unused, can they be as valuable as the life of a monk and his great path?

So scholars are very open-minded.

My father always told me that I must suffer more small losses on the way to practice.

The scholar smiled and asked: "Good brother, how did you lead me to escape from the siege of the monsters? Did it take a lot of effort?"

After the Jianqi Eighteen stopped running, Chen Ping'an collected the sword furnace stake and said: "It's not a big deal. The demons have been fighting with you for too long. They are exhausted. They are also afraid that there will be help besides me, so they are shrinking. Not moving forward, the encirclement and interception was a bit pretentious, but I still struggled with it for a while, and finally I got away with it, and ran all the way south to the Ghost Valley. It's just that your robe was stripped off by the other party, and I couldn't stop you. , very guilty."

The scholar smiled bitterly and said, "What about this demon-binding rope and two flying swords?"

Chen Ping'an said with a matter-of-fact expression: "I'll protect you. There are two big monsters here. They're just on the other side of the cable bridge. They're a python spirit and a spider spirit. You should have seen them too. I'm afraid that I'll devote myself to my practice and miss your life." "

The scholar glanced at the other side of the chain bridge. There were indeed two pitiful spirits, but were they called "big monsters"? He hadn't even completed the human form yet, but after seeing this innately overwhelming demon-binding rope on his body, he didn't get scared and ran dozens of miles away, which was considered a good thing.

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I'm afraid that after you wake up, you won't listen to my explanation and will start fighting with me when you open your eyes. Won't the misunderstanding be even deeper? Now, are we finally talking about it? ?”

The scholar nodded and said: "Not only does the good man have a chivalrous heart, but what is even more valuable is that he is very meticulous in his actions. I really can't find any fault with him!"

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Brother Mu Mao, can you tell me what your last name is? Friends of life and death, brothers in need, it would not be good if we still hide it."

The scholar smiled brightly and said with great sincerity: "My surname is Yang and my name is Mu Mao. I was born in the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty since I was a child. Because of my good qualifications, I am lucky enough to rely on the connections that my ancestors have been working in the Chongxuan Department for generations. He became an internal disciple who was given a surname by Prime Minister Yuyi of Yunxiao Palace. This time he went on a trip and headed south. Before arriving at the Ghost Valley, he had very little immortal money left, so he just wanted to slay demons and demons in the Ghost Valley. I’ll accumulate my virtuous character and earn a little money at the same time, so that I can put together a decent gift for the birthday of a prince from the Dayuan Dynasty who has good relations with the Chongxuan Department next year.”

Since this person recognized the word "Dragon Gate" on the head of the monument, the three talismans were probably seen through.

Therefore, the scholar will not treat the other party as a fool, lest the other party become angry and punch him again.

Chen Ping'an smiled half-heartedly, "I, a foreigner from other continents, have heard of the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty. It's like thunder. I wonder if Brother Mu Mao recognizes Yang Ningxing, who was born with Taoism? "

The scholar rolled his eyes and said: "As an inner disciple of Yunxiao Palace, how could I not recognize this famous little immortal? Not only do I recognize him, I also recognize the eldest son Yang Ningzhen who likes to travel around the world. I have a good relationship with them. Of course, These two are the direct descendants of the high-ranking Yang family, and they and I are just acquaintances, not very good friends."

The scholar was doubtful when he saw him, half-believing but not believing, and the scholar had no idea. The other party couldn't torture him, right? But if this is really the case, a magic weapon that binds the demon rope and two flying swords may not be able to trap him.

Chen Ping'an suddenly asked: "You were walking a group of wild dogs to play earlier, just to make me mistakenly think that you had the opportunity to beat up the drowned dogs, and you just wanted to kill me?"

The scholar was about to talk nonsense when he suddenly frowned, his eyebrows stung, and he lamented. The next moment, the scholar's whole person changed, just like when he first met Chen Pingan, who claimed to be "full of pure yang righteousness" and practiced qi. Whether it is a warrior or a pure martial artist, Qi can be hidden and momentum can be changed, but it is difficult to fake the kind of atmosphere that is conceived by a person.

Chen Pingan frowned and said, "Are you suffering from soul-leaving syndrome? Are the two sides fighting for the soul?"

It's like brothers fighting and arguing within the walls.

Generally speaking, this is a big taboo for monks.

Once this happens, it will be even more difficult for a Qi practitioner to break through the realm, just like climbing a mountain with a limp. Being able to become a golden elixir earthly immortal is already a great luck, and wanting to break the inner demon of Yuanying is simply a luxury.

The scholar was sitting, his eyes were clear, and he smiled and said: "In order to save me, you were seriously injured and suffered a lot of damage. The golden Shuchi talisman you sacrificed in the end is not only precious, but it should have some connection with my family's talisman." Origin. So the robe of "Bai Jing Taotie" and the three talismans in the sleeves should be regarded as my thank you gifts. As for me, naturally my name is not Yang Mumao, but I did come from the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty. I won’t tell you my real name, you can just guess.”

Chen Pingan asked doubtfully: "After 'he' fell into coma in his own small world, 'you' can actually still be awake and look at the big world outside?"

The scholar nodded, but did not explain anything in words.

Chen Ping'an said: "But it's your original intention to kill me."

The scholar smiled and said: "Isn't it your true intention?"

Chen Pingan was silent.

The scholar said: "Since you finally chose to save me instead of killing me, I think it is necessary to come out to see you again. The battle between the avenues in my imagination should be upright and aboveboard. If you agree with this, we can choose one Time and again, when our respective experiences are over, will we have a life-and-death battle on that Cari Mountain in the future? By the way, there is one more thing that I need to remind you of. I always feel like someone is spying on you from afar in the Ghost Valley, intermittently, and it doesn’t last long. I just I can vaguely sense that it is somewhere in the north, the Taoism is profound, so be careful."

Chen Pingan was noncommittal.

The scholar smiled and said: "I will concentrate on refining the Dragon Gate Stele next, and I must be focused on it. Please be more patient when dealing with the other 'me'. How can I put it, he is equivalent to the evil in my heart, all thoughts, Although I was reduced to a mustard seed, it seemed very small, but in fact it was huge and extremely pure. Evil is real evil and there is no need to hide it. My nature is unscrupulous. But every time I was distracted, he showed up and took control of this scene. Skin will make a three-part agreement with him, not to exceed too many rules. By the way, when he acts, I can watch and have a clear view. It can be regarded as a way to observe the Tao and sharpen his heart. But when I speak, he can only sleep. .”

Chen Ping'an was shocked. Just as he was about to speak, the scholar had already closed his eyes.

During this time, Chen Ping'an noticed that the scholar seemed to be looking at the side while his eyelids were lowered.

When he opened his eyes again, he was the familiar Huashan scholar again, with an awkward expression on his face as if he had pooped in his crotch.

There was silence between the two for a moment.

Chen Ping'an said: "Yang Ningxing, you can do it. Among the ten people in Luzhou, Beiju, I am the Little Heavenly Lord of Yunxiao Palace. Why should I hide such a majestic name?"

The scholar looked confused.

Chen Pingan laughed endlessly.

The scholar felt that "he" should not be so open to others, so he continued to set up the ecstasy formation, and said helplessly: "If my little Tianjun from the Chongxuan Department hears this, he will be angry, Yang Ningxing This person is the most rigid and can't hear a joke. I am more willing to get along with Yang Ningzhen and Yang Ningxing, the two brothers, and the female crown who is responsible for our Chongxuan Department's dealings with the court is really top-notch. Handsome and lovely child, I went on a trip and ventured into the Ghost Valley, just to make a name for myself so that she could look up to me. Good brother, you have a good name and are more capable. Come back later. In the Dayuan Dynasty, you must meet her. She was just a girl when she was young, so she organized a Taoist grand ceremony for Zhoutian Dajiao. She was the most intelligent. When you see her, you will most likely fall in love with her, and she will also If I don’t like you, then we two brothers will drink together to drown our sorrows. We will become brothers in distress, and our friendship will become everlasting!"

Chen Pingan stood up, ignored the man's jokes, looked around, Yuqi took the demon-binding rope in his hand, and on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, he also grabbed the sword gourd around his waist.

That glance before the scholar's mind fell silent, was it the scholar's deliberate act of pretending to be a ghost, deliberately making himself suspicious? Or is there really a mystery near this mountain? An expert is coming, but you can't see him? If that's the case, is it the Yin Shen from Pu'an, the peak of Nascent Soul, who is traveling far away and hiding somewhere around? Or is he an outsider with a higher realm? Is it the Xiaoxuandu Temple and the Great Yuanyue Temple that are not recorded in the "Anxiety Collection"? Or the heroic spirit from the north of Ghost Valley?

Anyway, it’s unlikely to be Jiang Shangzhen.

It is normal for Jiang Shangzhen to look at the mountains and rivers from a distance and stare at the movements on his side. However, it is definitely not Jiang Shangzhen's style to come here quietly but not show up.

Regarding Jade Guizong's plan in Shujian Lake, Jiang Shangzhen had previously been frank and honest in Mural City and revealed some secrets.

Chen Ping'an was seventy-eight percent convinced.

So for the time being, Jiang Shangzhen can be regarded as a friend rather than an enemy. Even if he is not a friend, he will not plot to harm himself.

To put it bluntly, if Jiang Shang really wanted to kill himself, wouldn't it be easier than the white skeleton in blue shirt who considered himself a swordsman?

Now that he, Chen Ping'an, faced a Nascent Soul, he could only run for his life.

But Jiang Shangzhen is a member of the Upper Five Realm in Tongyezhou who is known to like killing Yuanying.

Chen Pingan sighed in his heart.

Tell yourself silently, don't worry.

Cultivation is not about drinking. It doesn’t matter if you take big sips or small sips.

But the food has to be eaten one bite at a time, the road has to be walked step by step, and the money has to be earned one by one.

The scholar then stood up and stretched his muscles, "Good brother, these are your two flying swords? Sword repair is a business where money and money are eaten up in the world. An ordinary swordsman relies on the sect to give money and gifts to support him. It's the ultimate. How did you do it? Just relying on this business of traveling thousands of miles and robbing families? It seems that you are like me. Relying on the origin of the Genealogy Immortal Master, the cultivation in the sect is not enough, so under the guise of training, one time Are you going to do some household repairs next time?”

Chen Ping'an did not answer the question, looked to the north and said, "I made a huge loss in order to save you before I left. What should I say now?"

The scholar rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "My robe and three talismans fell into the hands of the enemy. Naturally, I have to ask for them back."

Chen Ping'an glanced at him and said, "That makes sense, then let's still go our separate ways. You go and ask for the lost things. I wish brother Mu Mao will become famous in this ghost valley. As for me, I will pick up my missing things honestly." .”

The scholar exclaimed, "How can this happen? I have a deadly feud with the group of monsters. If I show up, I will be attacked by a group of monsters. They will kill them all out of control. I will be in a worse situation then." , No, no, I don’t feel at ease without a good brother to stand up for me. Strangely enough, with a good brother by my side, I am so courageous that I won’t be afraid of anything in the world, even in the dragon’s pond and tiger’s den!”

Chen Pingan asked: "You don't have the robes and talismans with you now. What's the point of me taking you with me? Is it a burden?"

The scholar raised his palm and something appeared. Then he quickly rolled his other sleeve and covered it with spiritual energy. It turned out to be a small purple flying sword. He smiled and said: "The mountain man has his own magic weapon at the bottom of the box. The name of this sword It is Zizhi, imitated from the flying sword of a great swordsman in Luzhou, Beiju. It is not the flying sword of the sword cultivator, but its momentum is better than that of a flying sword. It is used to pretend to be a great swordsman to scare people. It is a unique thing! It is a sword of hatred. Shan’s unique skills are unique in the world and are as famous as the protective spiritual armor cast by Sanlang Temple!”

Chen Pingan pointed to the long sword behind him, "Do I need you to scare people? Can you show some sincerity?"

The scholar angrily put away the astonishing Zizhi, turned his palm over, and found a small object with a copper seal of Chilong Button. He said with a solemn expression: "This is the last and last item to be packed. Smash it to pieces." A chi dragon with astonishing combat power descends and turns mountains and seas upside down, no matter what. Even though it can only be consumed once, this is still an important weapon from the Yunxiao Palace treasure house that I got on credit with the junior sister Qian in charge of the Chongxuan Department."

Chen Ping'an looked at Brother Mu Mao.

The scholars looked at each other with a smile.

Chen Ping'an had some doubts. If he really fought for his life, what chance would he have of winning?

At the Guanghan Palace where the Summer Empress lives, I thought it was seventy-eight points, but now it seems like it’s at most fifty-fifty?

The reason is very simple. That Zizhi is indeed an imitation. It is not the natural treasure of the Mountain Sword Immortal. It is most suitable to scare Yuanying monks.

It can be used to kill Jindan monks, which is even more suitable.

Coupled with the unknown Chilong Button Seal, if it is handed over to a real scholar, the opponent will have both offense and defense in a fight. If the opponent has a higher-grade robe and a soldier's armor, Pill covering the body's treasure armor? After all, the so-called Taotie robe with a hundred eyes was just a disguise used by the scholar in front of him to cover his eyes and ears. A true disciple of the Chongxuan Department who is most likely to be born with Taoism, goes down the mountain to experience, how can he not be protected by the ancestral robe and treasure armor?

The scholar's eyes were full of resentment, and he said with a face full of grievance: "Why didn't you say anything, good brother? Could it be that you are motivated by wealth? I can't beat you anyway, so I can only take out my robe and Lingbao armor to save my life."

"The copper seal you promised will be your last treasure at the bottom of the box?"

Chen Ping'an said: "It's amazing to be rich. I'm afraid of you."

The scholar sighed, "My junior sister said that if you go out to practice, since your skills are mediocre, you can't communicate with others in words."

Chen Pingan said: "Let's go."

The scholar was gearing up, "Should we move to the top of the Great Sage's mountain, or to find our place on Diyong Mountain?"

Chen Ping'an said: "Along the black river, look for the Old Dragon Cave."

The scholar wondered: "Why?"

Chen Ping'an began to walk down the ridge and said slowly: "The mountain protection formation on Diyong Mountain has been torn to pieces by you. A group of demons must have gathered on the top of the mountain where the mountain ape is moving. Maybe... The Bichen Yuanjun in Yongshan has either hid his family wealth, or simply took it with him and moved to his allies. Should he go to Diyongshan to drink from the northwest wind? Or should he go to the mountain ape to fight head-on? Give it another try Did they beat each other up?"

The scholar clapped his hands with his fist and praised: "Yes, good brother, it's really a good plan. Those two turtles didn't show up during the battle at Diyong Mountain. In your words, good brother, you just don't respect the moral principles of the world at all, so even if we Looking for trouble with them, most of the demons on the mountain-moving ape side also hold grudges and will not rescue them if they are beaten to death."

Chen Ping'an sneered and said: "What I'm worried about now is whether the backer behind the summer queen who was killed and eaten by you will come. Tell me, who is she?"

The scholar chuckled and said: "He is an old Yuanying Yinling from Ghost Valley. He is very famous among the cities in the north. He dares not to listen to the orders of the Lord of Jingguan City. He was a general of the Shence Kingdom with outstanding achievements. When he was alive, he was never praised by anyone for being a god in military skills. However, after his death, he was praised by later generations of military strategists as being able to transport troops with integrity and use it without surprises. He was highly praised in the history of history. If it weren't for the stupid emperor he was loyal to, who fell into dissension. The plan was to force him to lead an army to attack, killing more than 30 members of his family, young and old, on the battlefield. This was a very critical turning point, otherwise the final result of the Battle of Skeleton Beach would not be the same. It’s really hard to say.”

The scholar paused for a moment, feeling a little melancholy, "As for how the Summer Empress got attached to this heroic spirit, I'm not a god who can predict the future, so I don't know."

The two of them were walking on the ridge path together. Chen Pingan saw him turning his head, looking towards the side of the cliff, and said aloud: "Don't take advantage of those two monsters."

The scholar asked curiously: "Are you familiar with me?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "Not familiar."

The scholar became more and more puzzled, "Then why are you protecting them? Keeping them as a source of harm... That's right. Nowadays, if you are a humble person, it is destined that they will not be able to leave the Ghost Valley for hundreds of years, and they will not be able to cause harm to anyone."

Chen Pingan said slowly: "There are spiritual beings, and it is not easy to practice."

The scholar looked at Chen Pingan and asked, "Are you really hurt?"

Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "The golden elixir Yin spirit wanted to repeat its old trick, and used the shadow of the tarsus bone on me. After smashing it with a sword, the mountain-moving ape seized the opportunity and smashed it with a hammer. Then the magic weapons arrived. I had no choice but to use up a talisman worth ten thousand gold, and I am still heartbroken."

Chen Ping'an was in a depressed mood. Not only was he distressed, but he not only used up the remaining golden Shuchichi Talisman, but also let his own life-saving means surface. In the future, he would like to use two golden Shuchichi Talismans in succession to use the Sword Immortal. There may be changes in the small world restriction that splits the Ghost Valley and the Skeleton Beach.

The scholar noticed that there was a slight change in the man's tone when he talked about the Mountain Ape. He was keenly aware of it and asked with a smile: "Why, do you have a grudge against the Mountain Ape?"

Chen Ping'an looked calm and said: "I gave it a hard hit with a meteor hammer. Isn't that considered a grudge?"

The scholar clasped his hands behind his back, swaggered, and said with a smile: "Aren't you going to make a good brother faint with blood again?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "If you are really sorry, I don't mind that you feel you owe me a favor anyway. Why don't you give me the flying sword or the copper seal as compensation?"

The scholar waved his sleeves wildly and screamed: "Good brother, I beg you, can you stop worrying about my little family fortune? If you keep doing this, I will feel panicked."

Chen Ping'an looked at the north and said, "When we get to Heihe, we still follow the old rules, three or seven points?"

The scholar was greatly surprised and said with a shy face, "This is so embarrassing."

Chen Pingan laughed.

The scholar instantly understood the implication of what he just said, and then said with a playful smile: "Let's go with 50-50. Harmony makes money, and harmony makes money. If it doesn't work, split the account between four and six. Good brother, I will do it with four."

The two of them walked north, choosing a path in the mountains and wading through mountains and rivers. Chen Pingan flew all the way, the rabbit rose and the falcon fell, and the scholar swam in the wind, neither fast nor slow, just walking side by side with Chen Pingan.

When Chen Ping'an stood on a tall tree, he looked up into the distance.

The scholar asked casually: "Why didn't you stop me from killing the Summer Empress in the Guanghan Palace? Wouldn't it be even more difficult for this Moon Palace species to be able to cultivate a golden elixir?"

Chen Ping's arrangement turned a deaf ear.

Then Chen Pingan took the lead, and the two of them passed by Tonglu Lake, and then carefully circumvented Tongguan Mountain, walking like elite scouts with their coins in hand, the route was hidden and silent.

The scholar was a little surprised, he was an expert.

Are you used to walking in mountains and rivers?

But why isn't it like that Shanze Yexiu?

Arriving at the bank of the Black River, Chen Ping'an had already taken off his bamboo hat, sword fairy and sword-raising gourd, covered them with an old man's face, asked the scholar to change his clothes, and then threw him a young man's face made by Zhu Lian.

The scholar did not hesitate at all, and did not reject it at all. Instead, he found it extremely interesting.

The Heihe River meanders for more than two hundred miles. It is not a big river, but it is pretty good in the Ghost Valley with many mountains and little water.

The two turtles from Dayuanyue Temple have occupied this river and have been domineering for a long time.

The Black River is turbulent.

There is also a Niangniang temple built upstream, which is naturally the water god temple of Fuhai Yuanjun. However, the temple is a natural temple for obscenity. The little turtle was not able to shape a golden body, and just sculpted a statue to look like it. , but it is estimated that even if it is really a golden water god, it would not dare to openly place the golden statue in the temple. The passing Nascent Soul Yin spirit would casually hit it, and everything would stop. Once the golden body is broken, it will be worse than the monk's avenue. It is fundamentally damaged and even more miserable. In fact, when the first natural crack appears in the golden body, it is the time when all the gods of mountains and rivers in the world feel cold. It means that the so-called immortality is beginning to show signs of decay. It is no longer something that a few pounds or dozens of pounds of human incense essence can make up for. . And those golden-bodied arhats in Buddhism, once they encounter such a disaster, will name it "bad Dharma", and they will be as afraid as a tiger.

Just like the Taoist immortals who have gone through untold hardships and finally cultivated a stain-free glass body, in the end, there will be stains when there is no stain. No matter how you wipe your mind, you can't erase it. How can you not be afraid?

Scholars feel particularly deeply about this.

Several people in the history of the Chongxuan Bureau were defeated because of this, and could not achieve true transcendence.

In the night, the two walked into the temple.

There was no one there, no obstruction.

The scholar clasped his hands behind his back, looked around, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm completely a coward. What should I do?"

Chen Ping'an asked: "Don't you have the magical power to divert water and create waves?"

The scholar nodded and said: "Yes, there is. I picked up a half-broken water-repellent bead on the road, but it is far inferior to the water-repelling beast earthworm my junior sister raised. If there is this earthworm, it is the earthworm hidden in the big rivers." You can easily find even the deepest dragon palaces. It’s a big-assed thing with a pair of horns the length of a finger, but with just a flick of its head, it can set off huge waves of hundreds of feet, which is really enviable.”

Chen Ping'an said, "Then I'll wait here for you to call the junior sister here?"

The scholar laughed loudly, shook his sleeves, held up a snowflake crystal bead in his palm, and slapped the bead into his mouth. Then it turned into a billowing black smoke and swept away into the river without any splashing.

Chen Pingan continued to visit this ancestral temple. It was similar to the Water Temple where secular dynasties enjoyed incense. The style and regulations were similar, and there was no embarrassment.

When we arrived at the main hall of the temple, we crossed the threshold and looked up. We found that the statue of Fuhai Yuanjun on the altar was not very tall and strictly followed the etiquette of a mid-level river god.

The woman in the statue is tall and tall, holding a big axe. She is indeed not very good-looking.

Chen Ping'an walked out of the main hall and visited the back hall. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, so he returned to the gate of the temple, sat on the steps, and patiently waited for the scholar's return.

What was on his mind was the record in the book about the Chongxuan Department Yunxiao Palace of the Dayuan Dynasty.

Like Sanlang Temple, they are both the prestigious residences of the Immortal family in Luzhou, Beiju. However, Yunxiao Palace also occupies the title of Chongxuan Department, so it is more involved in the world.

Buddhism flourished in Luzhou in the north, and the Dayuan Dynasty was the only one in the middle of the continent. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism was bound to be fierce.

However, since the Dayuan Dynasty was able to uphold Taoism and suppress Buddhism to the point where it set up a Chongxuan Office and let Taoism govern the Buddhist temples in the country, in addition to Emperor Dayuan Lu's dedication to Taoism, the rich foundation of Yunxiao Palace was the key.

In Longquan County, Wei Bo often greeted and dropped off at the Xianjia Ferry at Niujiao Mountain. He also knew that Chen Ping'an was going to visit Juluzhou, so he prepared a lot of books and files related to the Xianjia forces in Juluzhou. Who is Yunxiao Palace? One of the major forces to focus on, because Chen Ping'an also mentioned that he must take a trip to Dadu, and the Dayuan Dynasty happens to be the place where Dadu passes. Not only that, the Dayuan Dynasty attaches great importance to this Dadu It is so unusual that in all the countries along the Dadu route, not just their own vassal states, but all the countries, there are specially appointed supervisory officials and Shuilian officials. Their official positions are quite high, equivalent to the rank of Minister of the Sixth Ministry and the third rank of generals respectively. There are countries in history that have alienated relations with the Dayuan Dynasty. The government and the public have tried their best to oppose it. They regard it as a great national shame that there are officials from other countries on their own land. The Dayuan Dynasty has sent troops to conquer three times, and they have not hesitated to be scolded by the north and the south. This is the origin of his aggressive military activities and his feud with Confucian academies.

The establishment process of Chongxuan Department Yunxiao Palace is simply a history of the decline of other Taoist traditions and Buddhist forces in the Dayuan Dynasty.

The Tianguan Hall of the Qingxin Palace was demolished to become the Tianyuan Hall of the Chongxuan Department. The giant wood from Jialing Temple was taken from the Jialing Temple to build the Laojun Hall of the Yunxiao Palace. There are many kinds of ancestral halls in Yunxiao Palace. In the early days of the Dayuan Dynasty, this kind of thing happened in all dynasties. It was so arrogant and arrogant. After that, the emperors of the Lu family of Dayuan still thought that the Chongxuan Office was humble. Historically, several princes of the clan were ordered to personally preside over and carry out large-scale construction projects. , in order to expand the scale of Chongxuan Office and Yunxiao Palace, all buildings in the capital that hinder the feng shui of Chongxuan Office will be demolished, and a branch Taoist temple next to Yunxiao Palace will be set up on the ruins to suppress the luck. The names of the Taoist temples are all The affairs of the reign names used in the history of the Dayuan Dynasty were all left to the Taoist abbot of Yunxiao Palace. The imperial government was not allowed to interfere in any disputes within the Taoist temples.

The Yunxiao Palace of the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty is like the head of the Dao Lineage of the continent.

But in fact, the Heavenly Lord Xie Shi, who had gone south and stayed in Aquarius Continent for many years, was the real leader of the Continent's orthodoxy.

Chen Pingan was a little curious. The relationship between the two was that they hated each other, but they were equally powerful, so they never interacted with each other? Or do they regard each of them as a thorn in their flesh, and then quickly remove them?

Chen Pingan looked up and saw that the river was still rolling and the sound of the water was loud.

The scholar still didn't return.

But Chen Pingan suddenly stood up and rushed to the river.

The water became almost dangerous, with water constantly overflowing the banks.

What a heavy smell of blood.

A moment later, far away in the Black River, the scholar jumped out of the river, grabbed a burly woman by the neck with one hand, and dragged her forward. The woman's hair was disheveled and her armor was in pieces.

The scholar walked on the waves as if walking on flat ground. When he saw Chen Ping'an, he raised his hand and waved, "Good brother, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The scholar got closer to the temple and threw the dying woman in his hand on the shore. After a while, the woman rolled on her back and her face was covered with blood.

The scholar came to Chen Ping'an and said with a smile: "It's a good meal. We just had a battle under the water and it was full of dangers. Fortunately, I silently recited a few words of blessing from my good brother, and I was able to save the day. Otherwise, I would have been kidnapped by this bitch." The husband-in-law who suppresses the stronghold."

Chen Pingan glanced at Fu Haiyuanjun who was pretending to be dead with his eyes closed.

The scholar waved his sleeve and hit the little turtle directly into the big pit.

The scholar clicked his tongue and said: "This Water Goddess is really interesting. In front of the underwater cave, a place called the Concubine's Platform was specially opened. On it were placed a pair of bones, all of which were poor people who were lucky enough to be her husband. Insects, there is also a soul lamp lit next to each bones, what a magnificent scene with brilliant lights, what a love between a man and his concubine that lasts for thousands of years. If I hadn't threatened to smash this high platform outside the cave, this would have been The Water Goddess may not be willing to come out to see me. In fact, if I break into it, if she is really determined to hide, she may not be able to find her."

Chen Pingan asked: "Have you extinguished those natal soul lamps?"

The scholar nodded and smiled: "Of course, this is also a big merit. It is much better than killing the summer queen. Good brother, you are really my lucky star."

Chen Pingan squatted next to the big pit. The woman inside had already sat up, raised her head and screamed: "The sky is affected by the sun, moon and stars, the earth is affected by water and dust, and all sentient beings suffer! This is the fate of those men. !”

The scholar laughed when he heard this and extended his thumb to her, "It's so exciting that I almost believe it."

Chen Ping'an looked at the woman and asked, "Have you calculated your own fate?"

The woman said sternly: "We, father and daughter, have an old relationship with Dayuanyue Temple. You dare to kill me?!"

Chen Pingan was silent.

The scholar said in his heart, "Don't rush to do it, let's use her to catch the big one. The Water Goddess is relatively easy to find, but the legend of the Old Dragon Cave has so many twists and turns that it is very difficult to find traces of the old turtle."

Chen Pingan nodded slightly, gathered his voices together, and asked: "Her lair was not raided?"

The scholar still spoke to Chen Pingan with ripples in his mind, and said regretfully: "This guy is also cruel. Seeing the bad opportunity, before he captured me, he directly used his magical power to close the door of the cave. It can be broken open, but it takes too much time. There is no way. For a few hours, it is difficult to open. Monks have always been afraid of the large and small dragon palaces under the water. They are difficult to find and open. It is really involved with the water transport of the mountains and rivers. It is easy to fail to retrieve the treasure. If you are not careful, the sky will collapse and the water transport will explode. When the river rolls, it causes trouble. If it is a crowded place, it will be a tragedy for tens of thousands of people to drown easily. Of course there is no such worry here. We will fish out the old turtle later, and we will go to the bottom of the water to explore for treasure. , Good brother, your magical weapon will only open the door faster."

Chen Ping'an always stared at the black river spirit and said with a smile: "I can't last long under the water. Unlike you, who has the water-repelling magic weapon with me, my spiritual energy is consumed too fast. Once I use my sword to chop down the cave door, you If you give me another sneak attack, stab the flying sword Zizhi a few times, smash the copper seal twice, and conjure up a few Yunxiao Palace killing talismans, wouldn't I be buried in the belly of a fish? Brother Mu Mao, are you right?"

The scholar said with an upright face: "A good brother, don't judge a gentleman with the heart of a good man!"

Chen Ping'an said: "Later, you just go to the mansion under the water to get the treasure. Since I didn't contribute half the effort, let's give it three to seven, you seven and me three."

The scholar murmured: "Can we also get 30% of this?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I will help you look out on the river. You have no worries. You can just search for treasures with peace of mind. But I have agreed in advance that you have something close at hand. I have no way of knowing how many treasures and money you have found. I will divide the accounts afterwards. It all depends on It’s your conscience.”

The scholar asked: "How about the eighty-two split?"

Chen Pingan agreed, "Okay."

Seeing Chen Ping'an being so straightforward, the scholar became suspicious and asked tentatively: "Could it be that you made a rough comparison of the Dongfu family's wealth with the Guanghan Palace basement, and then you feel that you have less to share, so you will do something evil?" Are you so courageous that you are breaking up with me?"

Chen Pingan smiled knowingly and said, "That's what you said."

The scholar squatted on the ground and sighed.

When the woman saw that the two men seemed to be communicating silently and didn't look like they were going to kill her immediately, she became even more arrogant and said angrily: "If you don't let me go quickly, I will spare your lives! Otherwise, wait until my father comes. , teach you to die without a burial place! When my destroyed concubine's platform is rebuilt, I will first use you two who have suffered a thousand cuts to light the water lamp!"

Chen Pingan turned to look at the overjoyed scholar and said, "You deceived such a thing and went out on your own initiative. There is nothing to be proud of, right?"

The scholar waved his hand, "I'm not complacent, I just think it's fun. If it were a real god of mountains and rivers, no matter how low his rank, he would never tell a joke like this as long as he lived for such a long time. This ghost valley is not It has become so bad that we can't fight it out, so the Pima Sect, which has only a few manpower, is forced to stay inside this snail shell and not see the light of day all year round. It seems to be justified."

Chen Ping'an and the scholar looked somewhere on the river almost at the same time.

The scholar smiled and said, "The guests are here."

An aquatic spirit that looked like an old scholar poked his head out of the river. He hesitated for a long time before timidly approaching.

Still not daring to go ashore and approach the two of them, he stood in the river and said in a trembling voice: "The King of Heihe asked me to send a message to the two immortal masters. As long as Yuan Fu Hai is spared, Yuan Fu Hai's cave treasures will be preserved." If it is taken away by two immortal masters, it is regarded as a good relationship."

The woman at the bottom of the pit lowered her head.

The scholar joked: "You dad, you really don't worry about your life and death, so you just sent a bunch of soldiers and generals to deal with us?"

The woman just lowered her head and said nothing, her previous arrogance completely gone.

The spirit said tremblingly: "The two countries are at war, Bu Zhan is here to envoy. Regardless of whether the two immortal masters agree or not, I should be allowed to go to Laolong Cave to answer the question."

The scholar was amused and turned to look at Chen Pingan, "How do you say it?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Then you go back. Just say that we agreed to this condition."

The scholar added: "This Fuhai Yuanjun must stay first."

The spirit wailed: "King Heihe wants me to take Empress Yuanjun back."

Chen Ping'an said: "It's not good to do things well, but you may die in the hands of King Heihe, but it's better than dying here, right?"

The spirit shrank its neck and immediately turned around and fled into the water.

The scholar said: "I'm going to storm the gate of the underwater cave?"

Chen Pingan pointed at the woman at the bottom of the pit, nodded and said: "I will guard the section of the river near the cave. You just take her with you. Maybe you can talk it through halfway and she can open the door by herself, saving a lot of money." trouble."

There was no sloppiness on either side. The scholar once again grabbed the burly woman by the neck and dragged her in his hands. Chen Pingan followed the scholar upstream.

Finally, the scholar disappeared into the water.
