The little girl has already begun to look forward to that day. Instead of being afraid, she is full of childish expectations. She is waiting for the little uncle to step on the flying sword and land next to her from far away from the end of the world, telling everyone,
He is his little uncle.
As for the murderous intent and danger that day, Li Baoping didn't think much about it. After all, no matter how precocious the little girl was, she couldn't imagine the sinister human heart that wasn't described in the books. Even if she tried her best to think about it, she couldn't think of those undercurrents.
Move, the cold murderous intention hidden behind Gao Guanbo's belt.
A little girl who is new to the world simply chooses to trust one person wholeheartedly.
The old scholar, who was sleeping soundly on the young man's back, probably chose to reveal the secret because he cherished this rare tenderness.
Li Baoping reminded softly: "Uncle Junior, if you can't make noise and beat others by then, we can run away."
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Of course, as long as you don't find it embarrassing."
After that, Chen Pingan took Li Baoping to visit several grocery stores and bought brand new boots for all three children. Chen Pingan didn't buy them himself. It's not that he is stingy, but he is really not used to wearing them. When he tried them on,
I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn't even walk.
In addition, they also bought two new sets of clothes for each of the three people. The money was spent like water. Chen Ping'an must be lying if he said he didn't feel bad, but money must be spent.
Li Baoping still chose bright red clothes. Not only because of the joy, Chen Ping'an had heard the little girl complain early on. It seemed that when he was a child, a wandering Taoist passed by Fulu Street and tested the fortunes of the three brothers and sisters of the Li family. Among them,
When calculating the horoscopes for Li Baoping, he mentioned that it would be best for the little girl to wear red clothes in the future to ward off evil spirits. No matter how much the Li family pampered this little girl over the years, there was no need to discuss this matter. Although Li Baoping
The older I get, the more depressed I become, but I still do as I am told. Last time I received three letters from my family at the Hongzhu Town Station, without exception, from my father to Li Xisheng and Li Baozhen, my two brothers, all warned the little girl not to try anything.
I changed into clothes of other colors when I was fresh.
The little girl often told Chen Ping'an in private that if she saw that smelly Taoist priest in the future, she would definitely beat him up.
When visiting the shop, the old scholar was still asleep, so Chen Pingan could only carry it on his back. Fortunately, it didn't weigh too much. It was estimated to be less than 100 kilograms. Chen Pingan really didn't know how such an old man could carry such a heavy weight in his stomach.
Can you pretend to have so much knowledge?
On the way back to Qiulu Inn, Li Baoping's bookcase was filled to the brim. However, after traveling thousands of miles along the way, the little girl looked darker and thinner, but she grew strong and had good strength and energy.
, Chen Pingan is not worried that this weight will hurt Li Baoping's body bones.
When we arrived at the alley with flowing clouds and flowing water, it was still a mysterious scene of steaming clouds and mist. Chen Ping'an looked at it many times and still found it incredible. The painting "Searching Mountain" given by the blind old Taoist as a farewell gift, although the gods and monsters painted on it were also very strange.
It's surprising and weird, but it's not as shocking as being in it right now.
When he arrived at the door of the inn, which was engraved with two tall painted door gods, the old man suddenly woke up. The moment his feet landed on the ground, the luggage appeared behind him, holding a silver ingot in his hand. The old scholar looked at the two guys with confused faces.
, smiled and said: "There is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever. I still have to go to many places. I need to go all the way to the west. I can't stay here any longer."
The old scholar said slowly: "Chen Ping'an, that half of Cui Zhan has been divided into good and evil. Although it is not complete, it is roughly clear. I will leave it to you from now on. Teaching by words and deeds is more important than words. This is why I give him
The reason why I put it next to you."
Li Baoping frowned and said, "That guy named Cui Chan is a big bad guy. Master Wen Sheng, why do you always protect him?"
"There is no way."
The old scholar was a little helpless and patiently explained with a smile: "I have removed the restraints on him. If you think he should be killed next time, then don't worry about what I, a terrible man, think, just do whatever you want.
Therefore, I am so biased and protective of him. Firstly, he is on the wrong path. Most of it is because my teachings back then were wrong and I should not have been so categorical in denying them. This caused Cui Chen to have a misunderstanding that I made a very arbitrary conclusion."
The old man looked tired and spoke in a low tone, "Besides, I was really unhappy at the time. There was a fight that I had to win, so I didn't have time to explain the reasons to him and help him deduce it bit by bit, so what happened next was like that.
In a fit of anger, this kid simply betrayed his school, leaving behind a big mess, and Ma Zhan was one of them. Furthermore, if every step of the new path he chose could be taken steadily, it would indeed be a blessing to the world.
Hundreds of years and thousands of years, maybe we can add another stick of incense to our Confucian orthodoxy... These stupid accounts are both great and useless. When you have the opportunity to climb high and look far in the future, you may encounter it. Don't learn from me then.
Think more, don’t make a decision in a hurry, be patient, especially with the people around you, and don’t be in the dark, otherwise you will be very sad.”
Having said this, the old man touched Chen Ping'an's head with his withered and thin palms, and then rubbed Li Baoping's little head, "You guys, don't always think about growing up quickly. If you really grow up, you won't be able to survive."
There will be more and more things that you have to do by yourself, and friends are rarely by your side all the time. The newer the clothes and boots, the better, but the older the friends, the better. But when you get old, you will die of old age.
ah."
Li Baoping asked: "Lin Shouyi said that mountain gods like Qi practitioners can live a hundred or even a thousand years if they practice Taoism successfully!"
The old man smiled and asked: "What about a hundred years from now or a thousand years from now?"
Li Baoping asked tentatively: "Shall I go first?"
The old man was amused by the childlike innocence of the little girl and said with a dumb smile: "Then on the other hand, Xiaobaoping, a good girl like you, if one day you are no longer alive, your friends will be so sad. Anyway, I
This old man will be so sad that he won’t even be able to drink.”
Li Baoping suddenly realized, the little chicken nodded and said: "Yes, yes, no one can die!"
The old scholar stretched out his hand and handed out the silver ingot. Chen Ping'an looked at it and asked, "Isn't it insect silver? Cui Chan has one."
The old scholar shook his head and said with a smile: "That little thing was something Cui Chen would have cared about when he was young and found it interesting. But when it was the old Cui Chen, he didn't bother to take a second look. This thing that looks like a silver ingot is a piece that has lost its owner."
The sword embryo is of much higher quality than the piece Cui Han hid in Fangcunwu. The key is that the origin is very deep. If you have the opportunity to go to the Middle-earth Divine Continent in the future, you must take it to Suishan and say,
Maybe you can even have a nice meal of wine from a certain guy, Suishan’s flower and fruit wine, it’s the best in the world!”
The old scholar raised his thumb and said, "Even the gods will be drunk."
Chen Pingan took the silver ingot.
The old man joked: "Hey, you were not willing to be my disciple before. I even refused to nod and agree even though I was talking about it. How can I accept it now?"
Chen Ping'an said awkwardly: "I feel that if I refuse the kindness again, it will hurt my feelings."
Li Baoping whispered: "Master Literary Saint, it's because this thing looks like silver. How can I not like it?"
Chen Pingan knocked a chestnut over.
Li Baoping held his head and did not dare to say anything.
The old man laughed and said: "Xiaobaoping, next time we meet, don't call me Master Literary Saint. You are Qi Jingchun's disciple, and I am Qi Jingchun's husband. What should you call me?"
Li Baoping was stunned, "Master? Master?"
The old man smiled and nodded: "That's right. Both names are fine, whatever you like."
The little girl quickly bowed and bowed, but she forgot that she was also carrying a heavy bookcase. Her center of gravity was unstable. Li Baoping almost fell over. Chen Pingan quickly helped to lift the small book.
box.
The old man straightened his back, remained motionless, and accepted the salute calmly.
The old scholar checked his luggage behind him and sighed, "The name of the sword embryo is 'Xiao Fengdu'. Just accept it with confidence. The causal relationship on the sword embryo has been completely cut off. As for how to control and use it, it is very simple.
As long as you are careful, the boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge, and it will automatically recognize its owner. If you are not careful, even if you hold it for ten thousand years, it will not wake up, and it will be worse than a piece of broken copper and iron."
Chen Pingan put it away carefully.
The old scholar nodded and said, "Let's go."
The old man turned and left.
Li Baoping asked in confusion: "Master?"
The old man turned around and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"
The little girl pointed to the sky and said, "Master, aren't you going to take a long way? Why don't you just squirt and then disappear?"
The old scholar couldn't help laughing, nodded and smiled, and as expected he disappeared in a swish.
Chen Ping'an and Li Baoping raised their heads at the same time and looked at the sky. The old man was no longer there.
But in fact, in Xingyunliushui Lane near the other end of the street, there was an old scholar who turned his head to look at the door of Qiulu Inn and slowly left.
————
Back in the courtyard, the tall woman was sitting on a stone bench, looking up at the sky with a soft smile on her lips.
In the same courtyard, just a stone's throw away, Yu Lu and Xie Xie were unaware of the existence of this sword spirit from the beginning to the end. Whenever she appeared, she would isolate the energy between them, making the young girl unable to see or hear.
, completely unable to sense her.
Li Baoping said hello and went to put things in the house. Chen Pingan sat next to Sword Spirit.
The tall woman stretched out her hand and wiped it horizontally, and in her hand appeared the old sword that had been hanging under the bridge for countless years. She said straight to the point: "Since things have changed, I will make appropriate changes. Originally, we made a hundred-year agreement.
It remains unchanged for now, but I will speed up the pace of sharpening the sword and strive to polish it to restore it to its original appearance within a month. This means that your dragon-slaying platform will not be enough.
, very insufficient.”
Chen Ping'an was confused. The small dragon-slaying platform that suddenly appeared in his yard had to be carried to the blacksmith shop by him.
