Sword of Coming

Before going to the capital city of Li, Chen Pingan took Ning Yao and stood on the bow of the boat together. He couldn't help but ask, "Do you find it annoying to follow me around all the time?"

Ning Yao glanced at him and said nothing.

When things are not annoying, someone is the most annoying.

Jiang Shangzhen stayed in his room, looking at the fairy tales of various fairies. Chen Lingjun took Yu Yue to learn more together. Yu Yue only felt that Chief Zhou was really rich. The magic weapons used to browse the mirrors were piled up on the table. , the landscape paintings unfolded at the same time, but Chief Zhou had a pile of Xiaoshu money in his hand, chatting here and there, throwing money non-stop, not messy at all, and he was an expert at first glance.

Cui Dongshan accompanied his husband and talked about some things to note when traveling to the Great Li Capital. It seemed that this was his first time going there, so Cui Dongshan talked about some of the customs and customs in the capital.

There is a private residence in the capital city of Dali, where there is the Renyun Yiyun Tower, and the ruins of the old Shanya Academy. Sir, I will definitely go to both of these places.

This time during the Luolu Mountain viewing ceremony at Zhengyang Mountain, neither Wei Xian nor Lu Baixiang showed up, because it was not suitable to reveal their identities yet. Wei Xian and Cao Jun had been the right-hand men of Liu Xunmei, their younger brother, in the early years, and they were very addicted to officialdom. Wei Hailiang not only relied on his solid military exploits, but also won the title of Captain of Mounted Cavalry in the past few years. Now he is an officer in the Dali Border Army and is also a serious fourth-grade general with real power. He is qualified to single-handedly command a battalion of fine cavalry of the border troops. As for Lu Baixiang, he has developed a relationship with a prince mountain god of Zhongyue. The chief worshipper.

Chen Pingan talked about Yanghua, the water god of the Tiefu River, and naturally mentioned the all-too-familiar Longxu River.

The Longxu River Goddess Temple on the Xisheng River is an exception that does not enshrine a golden statue of the God. Therefore, the local people in the town, except for the high-ranking families in Fulu Street and Taoye Lane, still don’t know about the River Goddess. It's Malan flower. And Malanhua, an old woman, was once a well-known figure in the small town, because she was not only a deceiving goddess, a matchmaker, but also a midwife.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Old man Yang seemed to have promised that river woman that after thirty years, when the old people in the town who knew her face when she was young are almost gone, then he can build the statue and enjoy the incense."

When it comes to the matter of natal porcelain, the relationship is complicated. In addition to the Ma family in Xinghua Lane, there are also the owners of the dragon kilns in the town. In addition, it also involves the "pingtiao" relocation from Luolu Mountain to Qidun Mountain and the reconstruction of the mountain god. The former superintendent of the temple was Song Yuzhang.

The father of Lin Shouyi, the assistant officer of the kiln superintendent's office. This man who went to the officialdom in the capital and still remained inconspicuous had assisted several long kiln superintendents.

There is also the Qin Tianjian of the Great Li capital, which includes both horoscopes and earth masters, as well as a small group of "water masters" who were once responsible for the secret firing of the town's natal porcelain.

It was Ma Kuxuan's father who leaked the inside story of Benming Porcelain, but the Ma family in Xinghua Lane would definitely not be the real mastermind behind it.

Compared with a quest for swordsmanship in Zhengyang Mountain, which is just walking upstream along the river, the context and route are actually extremely simple and there are no detours to speak of. However, the matter of natal porcelain is a complicated mess, just like the big and small. Rivers, streams, lakes, the water network is dense and intricate.

It's just that the situation is complicated, and Chen Ping'an doesn't find it difficult.

Cui Dongshan asked: "Sir, are we going to open Luopo Mountain and accept disciples? Or should we wait a little later and continue to maintain the state of being half-closed and half-closed?"

Chen Ping'an had already considered this and said without hesitation: "Choose the latter. At least within thirty years, unless one of you takes a fancy to someone's qualifications and each accepts him as his heir, Luo Luoshan will not charge any A Taoist monk who comes to visit me on his own initiative will not be accepted, no matter how good his qualifications are."

Cui Dongshan lay on the railing with his legs dangling in the air and said: "If we make such a fuss in Zhengyang Mountain, there will definitely be people who come after hearing the news. There are as many as crucian carp crossing the river. They want to become Luolu Mountain. Direct disciples. Including Mi Da Sword Immortal, who is not the best teaching teacher in the mountain? They are all big legs. If you hug one of them casually, you will be able to envy others. "

In fact, as long as there is an immortal family with the prefix "Zong", there will never be a shortage of Taoist embryos who take the initiative to come to the door and visit the immortals in the mountains.

Chen Pingan said softly: "If they are willing to wait, let them wait in Longzhou, just to see what their temperament is. If they are not willing to wait, just go back to their homes. There are mountains and rivers in the continent, and everything is waiting for prosperity. There is nowhere to go, and there is nothing to do. Worry cannot be regarded as a genealogical god."

The immortal family on the mountain accepts disciples and incorporates them into the genealogy. There are generally a few paths. The dynasty and country where the mountain is located help select the Taoist embryos within the country and send them to the mountain to practice. Either by chance, there is no teacher to teach, or by chance, I accidentally hit the road of spiritual practice, or I am a wild cultivator in the mountains and rivers, or I am cautious and go to those great immortals' houses to have a chance. luck.

Within each sect, there will also be a group of genealogy monks who are good at examining bones and looking at the spirit. Every few decades, they will receive a job from the Patriarch Hall, which can take as short as a few years or as long as For more than ten years or even decades, he has been sneaking under the mountain all year round, responsible for finding good materials and jade for his sect.

Tian Wan from Zhengyang Mountain often does this kind of thing.

Then there is the immortal master who travels down the mountain and undergoes training. He just goes with the flow and follows suit. It is important for a master to choose his disciples, and the disciples also choose their master. Such masters and disciples in the mountains often have the strongest relationship and can go a long way.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Over there at the Lotus Root Blessed Land, sir, let Changsheng keep an eye on it, so there won't be any big mistakes. Sir, you don't need to be too distracted by this."

This is the advantage of sitting in a blessed land. The first to get the moon is the one who is near the water, the monks who go up the mountain on their own, the pure warriors who have risen in the rivers, lakes and battlefields, and the ghosts and heroes who are expected to build a series of temples of obscenity. They are waiting for the orthodox imperial edict from the court. It can be promoted to the god of mountains and rivers, and it is legitimate to protect a party. Immortal masters of genealogy, wild cultivators of mountains and rivers, ghosts and spirits, various city god temples, Dayue Mountain God, Dajiang Shuijun, River God and Lake Lord, Hebo and Hepo, and Tuigongdi will appear one after another. Po...

As long as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth becomes more and more abundant, and there are various gods of mountains and rivers, each performing their own duties to stabilize the destiny, then the cycle of the great road of a blessed land will be more flawless.

The owner of the blessed land, no matter how much money from gods and magic weapons are thrown into it, the wealth will still not flow to outsiders.

Chen Pingan said softly: "Although it is a blessed land for our family, we cannot regard it as a crop land that must be planted in spring and harvested in autumn. After harvesting one crop this year, we will wait for the next crop next year."

Cui Dongshan nodded and said: "Work hard and harvest carefully. Let everyone have a choice."

In fact, this is the most fundamental style of Luo Lo Mountain. This unwritten rule does not need to be written on paper, but will become the biggest ancestor of Luo Lo Mountain in the future.

Chen Lingjun and Chen Nuanshu were the first to follow Mr. Chen into the mountains, and then the four people in the picture scroll, and then Shi Rou, Cui Wei, Mi Yu, Hongxia Peixiang... everyone was like this.

It’s not that Master Zhu Lengzhong and others, as well as Pei Qian and Cao Qinglang, all came from a blessed land, so their moods must be taken care of, but the reason why Luolu Mountain is Luolu Mountain is that these people “have always been like this, but not like this.” In matters big and small. Within a blessed land, all living beings on the mountain and river map have a choice. In fact, it means that Luolu Mountain has lost its identity as God to a large extent.

Cui Dongshan said: "Sir, this is a huge risk. Jiang Shangzhen's Yunku blessed land, the blood-soaked accident in his early years, with corpses littering the mountains and mountains, is a lesson learned from the past, and we need to learn from it."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "Of course. No extreme truth in the world can bring good things. That's why I asked Master Zhong to go back to the blessed place from time to time and pay attention to Hongxia and Peixiang at the foot of the mountain. As an outsider from the blessed land, I will help watch the trends on the mountain over there. After finally finishing the next sect matter, I will choose a place in the blessed land as a place to practice Taoism. Every hundred years, I will spend a few years in it. Traveling all over the world, in short, I will never let the Lotus Root Blessed Land repeat the same mistakes as the Cloud Cave Blessed Land."

Cui Dongshan nodded and said: "Sir, I am relieved if you have this plan."

Jiang Shangzhen had deliberately let it go. He felt that the Cloud Cave Blessed Land had been run by him for many years. After hundreds of years of peace and quiet, the rules and framework were in place. The Blessed Land was like a strong-minded young man, and he planned to Let it go for a hundred years and see if there are any monastic geniuses who can "ascend" based on their abilities.

Afterwards, Jiang Shangzhen went to visit Beiju Luzhou.

At that time, Jiang Shang was really as high as the sky. He treated the practice as a joke. He even went astray and wanted to learn the master's method of killing three corpses, and he went even more eccentric, leaving only the Yin Shen in the blessed land. , took a path of reincarnation, and then asked his friend Lu Fang to help protect the path.

As a result, within the blessed land of Yunku, there was an intricate chain of interlocking links. Coupled with the instruction, funding and support of the conspirators behind the scenes, most of the local mountains of the Immortal family in the blessed land, plus dynasties and vassals, were included in the mountains. Thousands of qi practitioners, horse hooves formations at the foot of the mountain, clanking iron armor, mountains and rivers changing color, cloud cave blessed land, just the Jiang family's descendants, more than a hundred people were killed in just three days.

In the end, it evolved to the point where anyone with the surname Jiang would rather be killed by mistake than let go.

Many of Jiang Shangzhen's friends in the world and mountains he met when he was young were either sent to him to retire in the blessed land, or they were immortal masters who helped run and repair the ferry in the blessed land, and almost all of them died.

If it were Luopo Mountain, it would probably be like a blessed place, with that kind of master, Xiao Nuanshu, Xu Yuanxia, ​​etc., and then just because of an accident of the young mountain owner, they all became old friends one by one. story.

Therefore, no matter what dangers he encountered in his previous life, no matter what life-or-death enemies he encountered, Jiang Shangzhen's face was almost never stern, but that time he led people to open the gate of the blessed land with a sinister smile.

After that incident that was a catastrophe for the Jiang family and the Yunku Paradise, Jiang Shangzhen actually completely lost the battle to be the next leader of the Yugui Sect.

Because Wei Ying, a sword cultivator, was arranged by Xun Yuan to go to Jiuy Peak at that time. Before that, even Wei Ying, who was very ambitious, didn't think she had the ability to compete with her senior Jiang Shangzhen. Once there was a dispute with Jiang Shangzhen, Wei Ying thought that she had no chance of winning. Once she was targeted by Jiang Shangzhen, , there is only one end, either death, or life worse than death.

After all, the Jade Guizong was the most prominent and upright sect in the continent, but Jiang Shangzhen's methods of renovating the blessed land were too cruel and violent. Xun Yuan privately called Jiang Shangzhen outside the Patriarch Hall and asked him three questions in succession. If he regretted it later, should he accept it? Hands, do you want to die in the Patriarch Hall?

Jiang Shangzhen said that he had no regrets. There was no one to kill in Yunku Blessed Land, so of course he could stop. As for those old bastards in the Patriarch Hall, since they can't be defeated for the time being, let's think about it in the long run. We will talk about it later, just as a matter of cultivating one's mind. Nourish your character.

Cui Dongshan once chatted with Jiang Shangzhen about this past event, and smiled and asked Chief Zhou how he felt when he looked back on the past.

Jiang Shangzhen was drinking at the time and just said with a smile, I am stupid and can't blame others. Those who are stupid enough to be my enemy don't have the ability to escape like me. Of course, don't blame me if you die.

Cui Dongshan finally asked with a smile, Chief Zhou, you are so dedicated to helping our Lotus Root Blessed Land, are you just waiting for a good show?

Jiang Shangzhen cursed endlessly.

The last two extremely smart people just drank in silence. People like them actually don't need food to accompany their drinking.

For example, those old bastards in the Jade Guizong Patriarch Hall actually died in that battle. So there is no need for Jiang Shangzhen to settle accounts or seek revenge.

Regardless of whether you are a good person or a bad person, whether you are a good person or a bad person, whether you are a man or a woman in adulthood, who doesn’t have a few jars of wine of sadness buried deep in your heart? It’s just that some have forgotten where to put them, and some are afraid to open them. On the road of life, every time you dare to be angry but dare not speak, and you have to bow your head to make up for the smiling face, it may be a jar of bitter wine. Maybe there is too much bitter wine, and in the end, people can only be silent, and one after another becomes a sea of ​​bitterness. .

Cui Dongshan looked into the distance with soft eyebrows and said, "Sir, I hope that Luo Luo Shan will always be the Luo Luo Shan of today. I hope that you will always be the Mister of tomorrow."

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Why not today's sir?"

Cui Dongshan was lying on the railing, smiling and squinting, and murmured: "Students believe that every gentleman tomorrow will be better than every gentleman today."

Chen Ping'an stretched out his hand to hold down the head of the young man in white, then raised his palm, bent his fingers, and slammed down a chestnut, "You are still saying that the atmosphere in Luoluoshan was not caused by you?!"

Xiaomi Li in the distance tugged on Pei Qian's sleeve, put his hand to his mouth, and said with a secret smile: "Pei Qian, Pei Qian, take a look, the big white goose must have said the wrong thing again."

Pei Qian smiled and said, "Don't call me Big White Goose. My junior brother likes to keep accounts the most."

Xiaomi Li laughed and said, "Shout as much as you want. If you have something to do, call me Junior Brother. If you have nothing to do, call me Big White Goose."

Pei Qian blinked, "What are these words? Who taught you? No one taught you. You must be self-taught, right?"

Xiaomi Li was surprised and said: "Ah?"

His eyes pointed to Pei Qian, giving him a hint so that I could answer this difficult question.

Pei Qian raised his arm, bent his fingers into a chestnut shape, gently twisted his wrist, and breathed out.

Xiaomi Li understood and immediately shouted loudly: "I've learned on my own, I've learned on my own, there's no one to teach me!"

Cui Dongshan turned around and smiled.

Xiaomi Li coughed, turned around, winked at the big white goose, and glanced sideways at Pei Qian.

Cui Dongshan shouted: "Sister, the right protector seems to be hinting at something to me."

Xiaomi Li quickly stood between Pei Qian and the big white goose, jumped up, waved vigorously, blocked Pei Qian's sight, and shouted: "Pei Qian, Pei Qian, what the heck! The big white goose is sowing discord."

As a result, Cui Dongshan got a chestnut blow from Chen Pingan, and Xiao Mili got a chestnut blow from Pei Qian. Both parties made no profit or loss.

Cui Dongshan held his head, turned around and said with a smile: "Sir, in order to save money, the ferry can only go back to his hometown so slowly. Sir, he is busy in advance, so it is better to go to the capital faster by Yufeng."

Chen Pingan nodded, thinking it was feasible. Luo Luo Shan Xian adheres to the tradition of being diligent and frugal in managing the family. We cannot spend a lot of money just because we have a little family fortune.

So after that, I took Ning Yao away from the dragon boat ferry and went on a long journey together with Yufeng.

Xiao Mili hugged the railing and rubbed his face on his arm, while the good mountain master went to work again.

Cui Dongshan sat on the railing and moved his butt little by little, "Xiaomili, can we chat?"

Xiao Mili was busy thinking about things and complained about Big White Goose's dishonesty. She deliberately did not look at Cui Dongshan. She just smiled and said: "Who are you? The Big White Goose I know is generous, and the little senior brother is awesome. Someone is not the least bit... It's not like him, even as small as a melon seed."

Cui Dongshan leaned back, turned upside down, and fell to the ground, hugging the railing with Xiaomi Li.

Pei Qian hesitated for a moment and asked something about the Empress Dowager Dali. Pei Qian had heard about it at the battlefield in the capital.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said that there was nothing to talk about. He was just a woman who clung to a three-quarter acre of land and scratched whoever he saw.

Xiaomi Li is not interested in these and cannot remember them after hearing them.

In the past, when Pei Qian was only a little taller than me, it was fun to patrol the mountain bandits together every day.

Go and ask for some pieces of cloth from the old cook, learn from the heroine's costume in the novel, and ask Sister Nuanshu to help cut it into a cloak. One is holding a green bamboo staff, and the other is holding a golden pole. They go through the woods of Wuthering Mountain and kill enemies all the way. As long as they If you run fast enough, the cloak will fly.

Every time it snowed heavily in Luolu Mountain, Pei Qian asked her to stand still and turn into a big snowman. Sister Nuanshu would either wait under the eaves with a charcoal cage or prepare a stove in the house. Haha, she is a big snowman. Water monster.

Another time, Pei Qian pulled her and they hid in the corner. They had made an appointment in advance to let the old cook know what the most powerful hidden weapon in the world was. In the end, she stood still and nodded. Pei Qian stretched out his hands, grabbed her face with a slap, then staggered, spinning one after another, until he reached the middle of the road, and just threw her out. As a result, the old cook He also had some real skills and barely blocked her and put her on the ground, but the old cook was still very frightened. He kept moving and retreating, punching randomly with both hands, and finally stood still. Finally, he could see clearly, the old cook His face turned red, and he said angrily that such a hidden weapon in the world. I have traveled all over the world and read novels, but I have never heard of it. I was caught off guard. I was really caught off guard.

Every time there was a thunderstorm, they would stand side by side on the second floor of the bamboo building. I don’t know why. Pei Qian was very powerful. Every time he held a hiking stick and moved a little closer to the rain curtain, there would be lightning and thunder. Every time she asked Pei Qian where he was. How did you do it? Pei Qian said, millet grains, you can't learn it at all. The master took a fancy to my martial arts aptitude at a glance.

When Pei Qian grew up, the two of them stopped being so noisy.

Pei Qian also said that in fact, after Chen Lingjun entered the Nascent Soul realm, he had deliberately kept his figure unchanged, otherwise he would at least be a monk with a young appearance. If he wanted, he could become a mountain layman of about the same age. body shape. Xiaomi Li asked why. Isn’t it good to grow taller for free without spending money? Pei Qian smiled and said that he was waiting for Sister Nuanshu. Xiao MiLi immediately understood that Jing Qing actually liked Sister Nuan Shu. Pei Qian reminded her that you just need to know about this, and don't ask Sister Nuanshu or Chen Lingjun. She put her fingers together and wiped it on her mouth, understand!

Pei Qian also said, when you are patrolling the mountain alone in the future, if you encounter Cen Yuanji practicing boxing on the steps, you can keep walking, but don't forget to say hello to Cen Yuanji, regardless of whether the other party agrees or not. , you just do it as a coursework, it doesn’t matter if you forget it, you can just make it up next time. Xiao Mili thought it was not difficult, but asked Pei Qian why. Pei Qian smiled and said that in the eyes of the master, Sister Cen is a true pure martial artist. When he heard this, Xiao Mili nodded and felt sad. Pei Qian didn't even call him that nickname. Fortunately, Pei Qian quickly added that from now on you will call her Sister Cen in front of her, and we will continue to call her Cen Hanhan behind our backs.

Pei Qian saw that Xiao Mili had been in a daze and couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about? Is there something on your mind?"

Xiaomi Li let go of her hand, landed on the ground, nodded vigorously, stretched out her palm, and then made a fist, "Such a big worry!"

Then he spread his hands again and Xiaomi Li chuckled: "Swish, it'll be fine."

Among the layers of clouds, two figures disappeared in a flash, looking down at the mountains and rivers, they looked like silk threads.

In Ning Yao's field of vision, Chen Ping'an seemed to be practicing an excellent escape technique. His body turned into dozens of sword lights and dispersed with a bang. However, when he was finally forced to regroup his body, he would stagger and redraw the arc. He flew to Ning Yao's side and started over and over again, never getting tired of it.

Ning Yao then remembered that Chen Ping'an, who liked to learn everything, seemed to have only not studied the life-saving escape technique. This was actually not common among the Immortal Masters of the Genealogy on the Mountain.

Ning Yao had nothing to do anyway, so she took a moment to pay attention. After watching him perform a few times, her mind changed, and her figure quietly scattered eighteen sword lights. Finally, over the sea of ​​clouds dozens of miles away, Ning Yao condensed her figure. Yao Tie Yun hovered, waiting quietly for the guy behind him.

Chen Pingan followed Ning Yao, and after that, he stopped practicing this escape technique. Soon the two of them passed by an immortal sect in the wind, with towering green ridges, ancient pavilions, and precariously constructed towers and mansions, rising against the mountain. There was a waterfall in the mountain, and a red-lacquered book on the cliff. There happened to be a group of fairies in colorful clothes. , carrying a flower basket, as if they were going somewhere to pick flowers to make incense. The orioles and swallows were laughing and chatting happily. When they saw two stunning figures in the wind, they immediately stopped talking and cast their eyes on the strange man and woman. Looking out of curiosity, could it be a pair of Taoist monks traveling in the mountains?

Ning Yao asked Chen Pingan if he knew what sect it was. Chen Pingan explained the historical origins of this small sect. Ning Yao raised his chin and asked if he knew anyone and wanted to say hello. Chen Ping'an smiled and said no, no, I just heard about it and wasn't familiar with it at all.

When they finally recognized the face of the man who was passing by in the distance, a woman suddenly took the lead and exclaimed in surprise. She was so excited that she quickly told the sisters around her that it was the swordsman in blue, the one from Luoluo Mountain!

It turns out that during the previous Zhengyang Mountain Questioning Swordsmanship, the monks of this Immortal sect had watched half of the excitement with the help of Mirror Flowers and Water Moon.

Chen Pingan didn't recognize them, but they did recognize Chen Pingan.

Previously on the top of the mountain, they were chattering in front of the mirror, and the content of the argument was very feminine. Some people thought that the direct descendant of the Longquan Sword Sect named Liu Xianyang might have better swordsmanship, but after all, his appearance and magnanimity were not as good as that of Luo Luoshan. Shanzhu Chen. Later, some people learned that Luopo Mountain was near Piyun Mountain, and they had already made an appointment with their fellow disciples. Next time they went to the Northern Great Li to practice, they must go and take a look, and try to get a closer look at the Luopo Mountain Sword Immortal.

I never thought that when I went out today, I would see the young swordsman passing by in the wind.

It's a pity that Shanzhu Chen is accompanied by a woman who looks just fine.

Maybe he is a disciple of this sword immortal.

The same cultivator Yu Feng, whose speed is so different from that of cloud and mud, has already left those women behind. Looking at Chen Ping'an's helpless expression, Ning Yao couldn't help but smile and said: "You don't need to deliberately act like this, I actually I don’t care at all.”

Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "I know."

But in fact, why not give it a try?

It's one thing that Ning Yao doesn't care. It's definitely another thing that he doesn't care. The reason why she doesn't care is because she cares very much every time?

Things are arranged in order, and Chen Ping'an is applying his teacher's order theory to what he has learned.

————

After Liu Xianyang left Yixian Peak, he gathered with several of Dong Gu's disciples at the Mountain God Temple on the outskirts of a small country in the north. Xie Ling said with a smile, "We just received a message from Master Feijian, telling us to hurry back. Master is at Shenxiu Mountain." Wait for us."

Liu Xianyang was a little surprised. Blacksmith Ruan had not returned to Shenxiu Mountain for many years. Why, this boring gourd secretly looked at the mirror and the moon, and felt that the master's sword skills were not as good as those of his disciples. He had lost face. He was annoyed by this question of swordsmanship and wanted to challenge his family's skills. Served?

After the Song family of Dali allocated the vast territory of the old Zhongyue to the Longquan Sword Sect, they moved their family properties to the north one after another. First, Xu Xiaoqiao and Xie Ling were responsible for building mansions and repairing monasteries there. With the help of the people, they started to build a lot of construction projects, and they also needed to work with a Beiyue prince mountain god to stabilize the water transportation of the mountain roots. Later, Ruan Qiong also started to forge swords there. Several direct disciples of the Sword Sect left the mountains to the west of Longzhou's jurisdiction and went to the new site of the Sword Sect to practice swordsmanship. In the end, only Liu Xianyang was left alone, guarding the blacksmith shop on the bank of the Longxu River.

Currently, the four oldest direct descendants of the Longquan Sword Sect, except for Liu Xianyang, is already a Jade Pu Realm sword cultivator, the senior brother Dong Gu is a Nascent Soul Realm Qi Practitioner, Xu Xiaoqiao is a Jindan Sword Cultivator, and Xie Ling has learned a lot, and is a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator. Jing Jianxiu is also a hidden formation master and is proficient in alchemy. It's no wonder that Ruan Qiong is not anxious at all about receiving direct inheritance and re-inheritance, and is even willing to make wedding clothes for others. Sending Yu Ping and Liu Yu, the embryos of sword immortals who can make great achievements down the mountain, is equivalent to giving them away to others for free. Several golden elixir immortals. Ruan Qiong has always been like this when he accepts disciples.

If before, there were still two sects that were based on swords, and Zhengyang Mountain stabilized Longquan Sword Sect, but after Liu Xianyang asked about the sword, no one would think that Longquan Sword Sect could only be supported by Xie Ling. It's empty airs.

There are only a handful of Jade Pu realm sword cultivators before the age of fifty, let alone Aquarius Continent, on any continent in the world.

Miss Yu was also present. She just stood there, even if she didn't speak, it was pleasing to the eye. The flowers were beautiful and the moon was full.

The mountain god here was standing far away from the entrance of the temple and saw the Liu Jianxian who was coming. The mountain god bowed his head and smiled brightly. He did not take the initiative to say hello and did not dare to disturb the young swordsman who was bullfighting in Zhengyang Mountain.

Liu Xianyang clasped his fists in the air and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing the mountain god."

The mountain god quickly clasped his fists and returned the greeting: "If there is an immortal, then there will be a spirit. The little god is very lucky."

Liu Xianyang ran to rub the shoulders of senior brother Dong Gu and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Dong and Senior Sister Xu, you must speak for me when you meet Master. I am a guest in Zhengyang Mountain this time. I have to pass through the pass and be surrounded by dangers. , the injury was serious, and I risked my life to let our Longquan Sword Sect show up. If the master wants to curse people, it is too heartless and does not teach morality. I will be depressed when the time comes, and the foundation of the Tao is hurt. The master cannot cry afterwards. "

Dong Gu smiled and nodded, "No problem. In fact, Master has not disliked Zhengyang Mountain for a year or two."

Xu Xiaoqiao, on the other hand, has a single-minded temperament and is not very worldly. "I can give you some advice, but in the end it is Master who makes the decision himself."

Liu Xianyang turned around and asked with a smile: "Miss Yu, is it okay for me to ask about swords this time?"

Qiangyue nodded and said: "It's quite suitable."

Liu Xianyang was speechless.

Xie Ling couldn't help laughing, one thing fell after another. Thinking of something, Xie Ling suddenly said: "I remember that Master said personally that whoever reaches the Jade Pu Realm sword cultivator can be the next sect leader."

Liu Xianyang frowned and said, "Why don't I know?"

Dong Gu nodded, "Master did say this, but at that time, Junior Brother Liu was still studying in Nan Posuo Continent."

Liu Xianyang asked in confusion: "Xie Ling, did you secretly become the Jade Pu Realm Sword Immortal?"

Xie Ling shook his head and said: "Not yet. The Yuanying bottleneck is difficult to break. It will take at least ten years of hard work."

Liu Xianyang rubbed his chin, "Sure enough, you still have to rely on me. How much incense did Blacksmith Ruan burn to receive such a proud and glorious disciple as me?"

Liu Xianyang was silent for a moment and said to himself: "If master plans to tell us about this when he returns to Shenxiushan this time, then I will have to shoulder the heavy burden."

That guy Chen Ping'an is already the sect leader, so he has no reason.

Qiangyue asked: "Over there at Jianding, how much wine did you drink?"

Liu Xianyang rolled his eyes and said, "It's all fake wine."

Regarding Liu Xianyang's initiative to succeed as the sect leader, Dong Gu was relieved, Xu Xiaoqiao was convinced, and Xie Ling didn't care at all and only thought it was a good thing. Except for Liu Xianyang, Xie Ling really didn't think that any senior brother or sister could serve as the second sect leader of the Longquan Sword Sect. These two senior brothers and sisters, no matter who becomes the sect leader, will be difficult to convince the public and will have great hidden dangers. However, if the patient senior brother Dong Gu is responsible for the operation of the treasury, the upright senior sister Xu Xiaoqiao will serve as the leader of the sect. Laws are all good choices, and the master can safely forge swords. As for myself, I can devote myself to practice, climb higher step by step, realize immortality, and finally...

Thinking of this, Xie Ling raised his head and looked at the sky.

Ascend. Ascend to heaven.

If we only talk about skin and fairy demeanor, within the Longquan Sword Sect, we really have to look at the "Youlan Tingzhi" of the Xie family in Taoye Lane.

Qiangyue asked in her heart: "Why are you willing to be the sect leader?"

In her opinion, Liu Xianyang was actually very lazy, not ordinary lazy. He only cared about two things: practicing swordplay in his dream so that he could act like an elder brother to Chen Pingan.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "Master Ruan is a good person, and Chen Pingan is also a good person."

Qiangyue was confused and didn't understand that his master and friend were two good people. What did this have to do with Liu Xianyang becoming the sect leader against his will.

Liu Xianyang said: "If I really become the sect leader, it is actually just a transition. Master Ruan is not here, and I am not here, so the person who will really lead Longquan Sword Sect to the top is the future third sect leader. As for who it is, , it’s hard to say yet, just wait.”

The group hurried on and returned to Dali Longzhou.

On the other side of Shenxiu Mountain, Ruan Qiong stood alone on the edge of the cliff, silently looking at the scenery of the mountains.

In the past, there were sixty-two mountains in the west of Lizhu Cave, including Beiyue Piyun Mountain. The ranks of the mountains were very different. The big mountains were comparable to the mountains of small countries, and the small mountains were dedicated to a golden elixir. The secluded practice of earthly immortals will be a bit shabby and lack spiritual energy. They must spend money from gods to not delay their practice. A Taoist cultivation place with beautiful mountains and rivers in the world, the amount of aura of heaven and earth, and the depth of Taoist energy in the mountains, in the final analysis, is the Taoist charm of how many Grain Rain coins there are.

Among the two major sects, Luopo Mountain has the most vassal hills under its jurisdiction, such as Huimeng Mountain, Sword Worship Platform, Niujiao Mountain, Cheilyu Bei, Weixia Peak, and Zhaodu Gang... The young mountain master, in less than three years, has In the past ten years, we have gradually owned nearly twenty mountains. Regardless of the number, if we only talk about the landscape of mountains and rivers, and leave aside Dayue Piyun Mountain, since Luolu Mountain, Huimeng Mountain and Huanghu Mountain are all mountains that occupy a huge area, In fact, Luolu Mountain already encompasses half of the mountains to the west.

As for the Longquan Sword Sect of the sage Ruan Qiong, in addition to the earliest ancestral mountain Shenxiu Mountain, Diodeng Mountain and Hengshan Peak are at odds with each other, plus Caiyun Peak, Xiancao Mountain, and Baolu Mountain rented from Luopo Mountain. , forming a continuous piece of sect hinterland, and then a group of mountains were included in the pocket, forming a circle of Sword Sect outer sect forces. However, compared to Luolu Mountain, where people continued to settle in the mountains, Longquan Sword Sect always had a small number of people. On the contrary, it seems that the newcomers from Luopo Mountain have taken over, coupled with the fact that the Jianzong opened up new lands and followed the direct descendants to move north, eventually the situation of Luopo Mountain being the dominant one was formed.

In fact, Ruan Qiong once wanted to take root here with all his heart, collecting direct descendants, and passing on direct descendants, and then passing on direct descendants, each with direct descendants. From then on, it spread out, and finally in his hands, a sect was developed and prospered. As for the gift from the Dali imperial court, The land to the north of Yu's was originally intended by Ruan Qiong to be the site of the next sect of the Longquan Sword Sect, but after just a few visits, it turned into an unseemly "big vassal, Xiaozu Mountain".

On the landscape border of Longzhou, a sword flashed, and the wind flew around the mountains, following a predetermined route, and finally flew to Shenxiu Mountain. Ruan Qiong raised his hand and caught the handgun sent back by Xie Ling. Letter of Talisman Sword, several direct descendants are about to enter the Huangting Kingdom. The letter said that Miss Yu also knows how to cook. It looked like Liu Xianyang's tone. Ruan Qiong put away the Talisman Sword and started to cook. He made a table of food with his own hands, and then sat down The master of the main house was waiting patiently for several descendants and a guest to come to this ancestral mountain for a meal.

Shengyue wanted to return to the blacksmith shop alone, but Liu Xianyang refused, saying that he had told his master in the letter that you would be there. If you regret it at the moment, you will not give Blacksmith Ruan face. In our area of ​​Longzhou, Blacksmith Ruan and Wei Shanjun are both responsible. Bazi, these two are easy to talk to most of the time, but sometimes they can be timid.

When they got to the other side of the house, Ruan Qiong, who was usually stoic with everyone, still smiled a little at Qiu Yue. He called Miss Yu and made a rare joke, saying that he was not an outsider, so you are welcome. If the food does not suit your taste, just say .

But Liu Xianyang was so happy that Ruan Ironsmith still knew how to be a good person. He took Xianyue and sat on a bench. Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao, who were sitting opposite their table, were both sitting upright. Xie Ling was more casual, sitting with his back to the door. On the bench.

Liu Xianyang helped everyone fill their meals one by one. After Xianyue sat down, he looked at the table of food. There were both meat and vegetables, all delicious and delicious. Unfortunately, there was no big pot of dried bamboo shoots and old duck, which was the only flaw.

After Ruan Qiong took the rice bowl from Liu Xianyang, he didn't pick up the chopsticks. Liu Xianyang had already started to wolf down the food and received an elbow from Xianyang. Liu Xianyang's cheeks were bulging. He raised his head and saw that no one was using their chopsticks. Ruan Qiong said, "It's okay, let's eat yours."

Liu Xianyang was about to nod when his instep under the table was stepped on by Qiangyue again, so he had to put down his chopsticks.

Ruan Qiong said: "I plan to let Liu Xianyang take over as the sect leader. Dong Gu and you guys, if anyone has any opinions, you can talk about it."

The Longquan Sword Sect has always been like this. There is never any discussion in the Ancestral Hall. Some important matters are discussed at the dinner table.

Dong Gu said: "Master, I have no objection to this. It would be best for Xianyang to be the next sect leader."

Xu Xiaoqiao said: "Master, I have no objection."

Xie Ling smiled and said: "Junior Brother Liu succeeds as the sect leader, which is expected by everyone."

Liu Xianyang complained: "Why should I call him Junior Brother Liu? I have to call him Sect Master."

Ruan Qiong turned to look, and Liu Xianyang quickly picked up a chopstick for his master, "Master's cooking skills are clearly based on sword-making skills, he is very skilled!"

Sheng Yue somewhat understood why Liu Xianyang, who was not stingy, was so popular. This was because the military strategist Ruan Shengren was rather old-fashioned. His eldest disciple Dong Gu followed his example and respected his mentor too much, to the point of being too reserved. Xu Xiaoqiao was introverted and disliked In terms of words, Xie Lingtai has an ethereal air and is far away from the world of mortals. He especially dislikes common people's affairs. If it weren't for Liu Xianyang, he would probably have been silent for the whole meal and then left after finishing the meal.

Ruan Qiong continued: "Dong Gu will be in charge of the revenue and expenditure of the treasury from now on, and Xu Xiaoqiao will be in charge of the laws and regulations of the ancestral hall. Xie Ling will practice hard. If he is willing to be distracted, he can recruit a few more direct disciples. There are indeed few further disciples on the mountain. That's right. As for how to deal with the Dali imperial court and the monks on the mountain in the future, you guys can discuss it among yourselves. It's not like Liu Xianyang becomes the sect leader, he must bear the responsibility for this matter."

In just a few words, Ruan Qiong finished talking about a series of important sect affairs.

Ruan Qiong picked up the chopsticks and said, "Eat."

Just give the order and eat.

Except for Liu Xianyang's jokes, there was no other words at the dinner table. Qiangyue only admired Liu Xianyang for this. No matter what he said or did, he was never embarrassed.

Ruan Qiong was the first to finish eating. He put down his chopsticks and said before standing up: "Xian Yang, you are the sect leader from today on, so you don't have to say hello to me for anything. From now on, I will only focus on forging swords."

After looking at the other three direct descendants, Ruan Qiong said calmly: "No matter what position you hold in the sect, fellow sects must behave like fellow sects. Don't bring some dirty habits from the outside with you in the future."

After saying this, Ruan Qiong walked out of the house and Yufeng left.

As soon as Ruan Qiong left, Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao had some words, but it was Liu Xianyang's turn to chew slowly and stop talking.

After the meal, Xu Xiaoqiao was responsible for cleaning up the dishes and helping out on credit. Xu Xiaoqiao had a very good impression of this girl Yu.

Liu Xianyang was like an old man, with his legs crossed and a toothpick in his mouth. When the two ladies went to the kitchen, he tapped his fingers on the table and said seriously: "Old Dong, Xiao Xie, you two are not even that old. It's time to find a wife, otherwise I, the sect leader, would feel guilty and feel uncomfortable facing a bunch of bachelors every day."

Xie Ling said with a smile: "Senior Brother Dong, if you had known that someone had become the sect leader, you would still be acting like this. Why don't you fight for the position of sect leader? How about we change our minds and go to Master to ask for help? I will be responsible for helping to convince Senior Sister Xu. You are responsible for stalking the master, and when the time comes to change the sect master, it will only be a matter of a meal."

Dong Gu nodded and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable."

Liu Xianyang snorted, "You two, do you still want to cause trouble with Ruan Blacksmith?"

Liu Xianyang spread out a palm and wiped his temples, "Besides, let me tell you a secret. The way Senior Sister Xu looked at me, something was wrong a long time ago."

Xu Xiaoqiao was over there in the kitchen, having suffered this unreasonable disaster inexplicably, and said angrily: "Liu Xianyang, are you looking for death?! Even if you don't have a good mouth, and you like to talk nonsense, you must have a restraint! Do you believe that I will tear your mouth apart?" "

Liu Xianyang said with an innocent face: "I mean, senior sister, the way you look at your junior brother is like a real sister looking at a real brother who has been separated and reunited. It is so kind and gentle, and it makes me feel warm. There is nothing wrong with that. ?”

Qiangyue tugged on Xu Xiaoqiao's sleeves and said softly: "Ignore him. He dreams every day and his mind can't be clear."

Xu Xiaoqiao laughed angrily and said, "If you don't have the same knowledge as him, Miss Yu, you have to take more care of Liu Xianyang from now on, so that he won't be so careless, carefree and idle every day."

Shengyue was a little depressed. This girl was so incapable of speaking. She wasn't a bad person, but she was a little heartless.

Liu Xianyang stood up and said: "I have to go to Piyun Mountain to discuss something as the sect leader. You all are busy with your own affairs."

He patted Xie Ling on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Xie, practice well and guard against arrogance and impatience."

Xie Ling smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Listen to the sect leader."

Liu Xianyang felt that it was not enough, so he wanted to pat his elder brother on the shoulder and give him a few words of instruction. Dong Gu waved his hand, "Don't do this."

Liu Xianyang walked out of the house with a smile and asked, "Miss Yu, shall we go down the mountain together?"

Qiangyue shook her head, "No, I have to go back to the shop."

Liu Xianyang went to Piyun Mountain alone and talked to Wei Bo about something.

Wei Bo was stunned. The matter was so important that he neither shook his head nor nodded, but asked, "Is this what Ruan Shengren himself meant?"

Liu Xianyang patted his chest and laughed, "Just leave it alone, Mr. Wei Dashan. Anyway, now Longquan Sword Sect, I, Liu Xianyang, have the final say."

Wei Bo asked doubtfully: "How do you say that?"

Liu Xianyang laughed loudly and said: "I am already the new sect master, so I don't have the final say?"

Wei Bo was silent for a moment. Liu Xianyang suppressed his smile and nodded. Wei Bo sighed and said with a smile: "I understand, let's do it right away. I'll help explain to the Dali court."

Liu Xianyang lamented: "Friends like Wei Shanjun are hard to find even with a lantern."

On this day, the mountains in the mountains to the west of Longquan Sword Sect, except for the three mountaintops rented by Luopo Mountain, remained in place. The rest of Shenxiu Mountain, including the Shenxiu Mountain, were all summoned by Beiyue Mountain Lord Wei Bo to summon the Prince Mountain God. Together they used their magical powers to move all the people away and moved to the old Zhongyue territory.

From now on, there will be no Longquan Sword Sect in the old Lizhu Cave Heaven. From now on, there will only be Luo Luoshan with the name of a sect.

While Wei Bo was busy, Liu Xianyang had been squatting on the top of Piyun Mountain, holding grass roots in his hands.

In fact, this is what Master Ruan Qiong meant, but he couldn't express it.

Sword Qi Great Wall, Confucian shirt left and right, sitting cross-legged, sword across his knees, looking ahead.

Cao Jun, who had traveled all the way across the sea to come here, was dusty and tired, and fell down not far away. He gasped for air. After his breath stabilized for a while, he turned around with a smile and said hello: "Mr. Zuo!"

Nodding slightly left and right.

Cao Jun waited for a long time and found that Zuo had no intention of speaking, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "Mr. Zuo?"

Left and right asked in confusion: "Is something wrong?"

This embryonic sword fairy from Nan Posu Continent was able to dare to pass the sword on the two battlefields of Aquarius Continent and Tongye Continent even after the sword heart was damaged. Now he has come here on his own initiative. Apparently he plans to use his sword against the wild world?

My impression of this person has improved a lot.

Cao Jun has one head and two heads. Didn't Chen Ping'an ask you, my senior brother, to come to the Sword Qi Great Wall to practice swordsmanship with you? Are you not going to admit it?

But there is no need to argue with the left and right.

Cao Jun asked cautiously: "Mr. Zuo, did you forget something?"

He frowned and said, "As a sword cultivator, I speak directly if I have anything to say."

Cao Jun said with a sad face: "Chen Ping'an suggested that I come here and practice sword practice with Mr. Zuo."

No one dared to tell the truth.

That bastard Chen Ping'an is the junior disciple of his left and right, but he is not.

He nodded left and right and said, "Okay."

Cao Jun breathed a sigh of relief. He was aggrieved. Finally, his trip was not in vain, but he couldn't help but cursed in his heart, what a shameless official.

"My junior brother, did he tell you that it was my suggestion that you come here?"

He smiled and stretched out a hand casually, pressing the scabbard gently, waiting for A Liang to make some movement in the south, and then he could follow and draw the sword.

As for teaching Cao Jun swordsmanship, there is actually no problem. Now Cao Jun's temperament, aptitude, and character are all in place. He is completely different from the young genius from Nan Posuo in his early years.

Cao Jun glanced at the action of holding the scabbard on the left and right, immediately shook his head vigorously, and said decisively: "It's nothing!"

Turning his head left and right, he asked curiously: "Really or not? Tell the truth."

Cao Jun said bravely: "Chen Pingan did say that Mr. Zuo asked me to come."

Looking around into the distance, he seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Senior brother and I are not seeing each other."

Cao Jun was stunned for a long time, but he was also a person who could laugh?

At the northernmost point of Zhengyang Mountain, one night, a boundary monument was quietly erected, "Go north to Luolu Mountain for two hundred thousand miles."

A cross-continent ferry named Feng Yuan came from Zhongtu Divine Continent and slowly hovered at the Niujiao Mountain Ferry.

There is no night ban in the Li capital city, and the lights are as bright as day. On the other side of the gate, two people can enter without any hindrance without submitting the Shanshui Guan ultimatum. There is not even a word of questioning on the city gate, because this pair The young men and women who look like Taoist monks on the mountain each have a Taiping offering plaque issued by the Ministry of Punishment hanging on their waist.

A majestic and majestic Lijing City with a mixture of fish and dragons, there are only two more peace cards tonight, which are actually not conspicuous.

Ning Yao glanced at the Dali Palace from a distance. The layers of landscape restrictions were quite good, and asked: "Where to go next? If the imitation Bai Yujing comes out with a sword, I will block it. You only need to be on the palace side. , reason with people.”

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Don't worry, let's find a place to have a late night snack first?"

Ning Yao nodded, "It's up to you."

After finding a late-night snack stall, Chen Pingan sat down and ordered two bowls of wontons. He took out two pairs of bamboo chopsticks from the bamboo tube on the table and handed a pair to Ning Yao. Chen Pingan held the chopsticks and gently tapped the bowl of steaming wontons. He blew a breath and subconsciously smiled to remind her to be careful of scalding, but he soon stopped laughing. He made a face with her, lowered his head and picked up a chopstick, and began to chew slowly. Ning Yao turned around and looked away, not looking away for a long time. When Chen Pingan looked up, he could only see her slightly trembling eyelashes.

When Ning Yao finished eating, he found that Chen Ping'an had already put his hands on his sleeves and looked at him with a smile.

Ning Yao thought for a moment and said, "I'm not very hungry. Can I have another bowl?"

Chen Ping'an waved his hand, "If you have money in your pocket, it won't be a big deal if you eat more wontons."

There were diners on the side who were complaining, "Look at what you are capable of. How down-and-out does one have to be to be so heroic from a bowl of wontons?"

Look at the woman with squinted eyes and smile again. Bai Chang is so beautiful. She is really a heartless woman to find such a pauper to live together and travel around the world.
