Chen Ping'an's trip to Qingxia Island came and went in a hurry.
In fact, whether Gu Can leaves or stays has nothing to do with the overall trend. In fact, Chen Ping'an can't change much now. There are some things behind the scenes, whether it's the actions of Su Gaoshan in Da Li, the changes in Shujian Lake, or the plans of the monks from Gongliu Island.
, as long as Chen Pingan is not willing to leave the central part of Aquarius Continent, it will be the same wherever Gu Can is.
But Gu Can himself is willing to stay on Qingxia Island and guard Chun Ting Mansion, which is the best.
Chen Pingping sailed away.
After landing in Lutong City, the ferry passed by the Furong Mountain where the founder's hall had been demolished. When the fire dragon appeared, its arrogance was soaring to the sky, which was no less than that of the loach that poured water over the river. Anyone with a high enough level in Shujian Lake could
They mistakenly thought that Gu Can's enemies from the Dao would show up and a fire-and-water dispute would break out. However, they did not expect that the group of foreigners who were rumored to be Da Li Nianganlang chose to stop and leave.
However, people did not miss the excitement afterwards. The woman in green, who was shrouded in mist and aroused suspicion, and a strange young man with a mole between his eyebrows teamed up to kill the Nine Realm Sword Cultivator of the Zhu Ying Dynasty. It is said that not only
The physical body was reduced to food, and even the Nascent Soul was detained. This meant that the two "old monks" with "the color of a young girl" had a lot of energy during the pursuit, which made people even more frightened.
There is a huge difference between defeating an Earth Immortal and killing an Earth Immortal.
After Chen Ping'an landed, he retrieved the horse from the inn, went to the back alley shop to buy a few meat buns with thin skin and lots of fillings, had a hearty meal, and then hurried to Shihao, which borders Meigla Country.
On the southeastern border of the country, the pass is named Liu, and it is famous in history. There are different opinions. Some say that the founding emperor of the Zhu Ying Dynasty once successfully saved the pass here, which is known as the "half-effort".
The counselor of the Han tribe, also said to be the most powerful Nascent Soul sword cultivator in the history of the Zhu Ying Dynasty, was disheartened and could not gain enlightenment here. In the end, he was still unable to become a fifth-level swordsman, so he wrote on the cliff with his fierce sword energy.
The word "stay", with regrets, made the sword cultivators in the central part of Aquarius Continent, as well as many swordsmen in the martial arts world, regard this small pass in the vassal country as a holy place in their hearts, and they would all go there and look up at the cliff "
"Leave a legacy".
Before autumn, Chen Pingan rushed to Liuguan after a long journey and met Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi who had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the familiar figure of Mr. Chen riding a horse, Ma Duyi and Zeng Ye were obviously relieved.
At first, the two of them felt quite comfortable without Chen Pingan by their side. Inside Zeng Ye's bamboo box was carrying the Hell Palace of Hell. In times of crisis, they could reluctantly bring out a few of the cave realm ghosts "hand-picked" by Chen Pingan.
Walking in the world of Shihao, as long as they don't show off, it's enough. So Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi were free and uninhibited at first, but as they walked, there was a bit of noise, even if they just saw the Dali scouts wandering around.
, I felt scared. At that time, I realized that it was very different whether Mr. Chen was around or not.
With Mr. Chen here, the rules are indeed there, but one person and one ghost can at least feel at ease.
Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi also talked about that feeling in private, but they couldn't explain the reason. They just felt that it was not just Mr. Chen who had a high level of cultivation.
When they were staying at the scenic spot in Liuguan, they looked up at the big characters carved on a cliff like a knife. They also keenly discovered that Mr. Chen went to Shujian Lake alone, and after returning, he became more and more worried.
Chen Ping'an also noticed this. After thinking about it, he looked back and said frankly to them: "Before coming here, I took two jade tokens and wanted to see Dalisu Gaoshan, but I couldn't."
Zeng Ye didn't think deeply about it, but felt a little disappointed for Mr. Chen.
But Ma Duyi knew very well that the clouds and waves were treacherous, and there must be danger hidden there.
Chen Pingan tried his best to use a calm tone and said with a smile: "There are many things, if you leave them alone, you will never know the answer. As long as you make a choice, there will be good and bad, and now you are the bad one."
As a result, not only did we fail to see Su Gaoshan, we might not be able to alert the enemy, but we will definitely be missed by this Great Li general, so we must be more careful in the future. If any of you inadvertently discover the Great Li on this journey of Mei Glaze Country,
The monks accompanying Li's army should just pretend not to have seen it. Don't worry, we won't be in danger of our lives."
Although Zeng Ye nodded, he was inevitably worried.
But Ma Duyi was as broad-minded as heaven and earth. He said jokingly: "As long as I don't get chased by the big Li cavalry, I don't care. Just watch it if you like. Not a single copper coin can escape from us."
Chen Ping'an said helplessly: "It would be nice if your two personalities complement each other."
Ma Duyi glared, "Mr. Chen, don't mess with the mandarin ducks, I don't like Zeng Ye."
Zeng Ye smiled naively, but he didn't dare to say that he didn't like Ma Duyi either.
Under the cliff, there are only a few merchants from Shihao and Meiglai countries who need to pass the customs, and most of them are young. They hope to use this as a capital to show off after returning home. As for the elderly merchants and old Jianghu
, I have read the word "stay" on the cliff countless times, and I really can't leave them behind.
Just as Chen Ping'an and his three cavalrymen turned their horses, a group of swordsmen from all walks of life came on horseback. They all dismounted, took off their swords, and bowed respectfully to the word cliff.
Among them, the old man, for the rest of the young men in the cavalry, spoke loudly and impassionedly about the historical origins of the monuments here. Of course, he had to say a few kind words for their sword wielder. The young men and women listened with high spirits and excitement.
.
Most likely he is a member of the martial arts sect who left his master's sect and came to the martial arts sect to gain experience.
Chen Ping'an could naturally see the depth of the old man. He was a five-level warrior with a fairly good foundation. In a vassal land with a small territory like Meigla Kingdom, he should be regarded as a well-known figure in the world. However, in addition to meeting the old swordsman,
Otherwise, there is no hope for the six realms in this life. Because the Qi and blood are exhausted, it seems that there has been a root cause of disease, and the soul is wandering, making the bottleneck of the five realms more and more indestructible. As long as you meet a younger martial artist of the same realm, you will naturally respond.
There is an old saying about being afraid of young people.
When we encounter each other by chance in the rivers and lakes, we usually pass by each other and then ride away.
The old man turned his head and looked at the backs of the three knights. He saw a slender girl with slightly elongated eyebrows and asked: "Master, the one wearing a green shirt and wearing a sword is a member of our martial arts community. Is he?"
A hidden master?"
The old man smiled and said: "If you don't wear a green shirt and wield a sword, you must be a swordsman."
They mounted their horses one after another and continued on their way to pass the border.
The Meigla Kingdom is relatively stable, but the neighboring Shihao Kingdom is in chaos. Previously, an upright official from the Shihao Kingdom who had long-standing friendships with his sect sent a secret letter saying that a powerful official from the Shihao Kingdom was
The eunuchs wanted to eradicate him and implicate innocent people. The innocent and loyal minister who was as famous as the "Wendan Censor" in the temple of Shihao Kingdom confessed in the letter that he was willing to stay in the capital, die for the country, and teach the great Li barbarians.
I know that there are still a few scholars in Shihao Kingdom who are not afraid of death, but I hope that their friends in the world can escort the children of local families to take refuge in Meigla Kingdom, so that he can go on the journey with peace of mind.
After passing Liuli Pass, the place where the horse's hooves stepped was the territory of Shihao Kingdom.
The official had a sentence in the letter, which was written in a very heavy handwriting. When he circulated it to the old warrior and his brothers, they were all moved with emotion. Therefore, he led his disciples to risk their lives this time and traveled through the rivers and lakes.
No hesitation.
"The Han family is mellow. The emperors of all dynasties have valued literary figures and have nurtured scholars for two hundred years. They have never treated scholars badly. We, the scholars, should not let anyone be ashamed of the Han family."
The old man sat on the horse, sighing in his heart. The Great Li cavalry is also pressing down on the Meigla Kingdom's army. The sky is huge and the earth is huge. Is it so difficult to find a place for the people to stay and a safe place for the scholars?
This old man, who was used to seeing the ups and downs of the world, had an ulterior thought deep in his heart. It would be better if the barbarians of Da Li conquered the Zhu Ying Dynasty as soon as possible. After the chaos, there might be an era of great rule.
The opportunity, no matter what, is better than the few iron cavalry of Dali, which are like a few knives used to destroy Zhu Yingfan's vassal state. They have been cutting the flesh with blunt knives, cutting back and forth. The people who suffer are not the common people? Don't mention it.
Not to mention, the Da Li barbarians treat the territories of various countries within the reach of Ma Hoof. They are merciless on the battlefield and kill so fast. But if you really want to move your eyes north, the entire Aquarius Continent where the smoke has gradually dissipated in the past few years.
In the north, countless people who fled have returned to their hometowns one after another. The Dali civil servants stationed in various places have done a lot of personal things.
It's just that these bastard words are destined to be wrong as soon as they are uttered, so the old man can only pour it on himself with swigs of old wine.
Over there, three horses are galloping.
They are still helping the ghosts and ghosts fulfill their various wishes, and Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi are in charge of the porridge and medicine shop, but Mei Glaze Country is still relatively stable and they don't do much.
The world is in chaos, the world is not good, and the people are ignorant, frightened, and helpless.
Chen Ping'an and the others encountered a strange thing by a stream in a deserted countryside. A group of strongmen who had fallen into the trap of bandits were looking at a middle-aged Taoist priest lying on a boulder in the water, frowning.
A skinny, middle-aged Taoist who came from a side sect of Taoism in the Zhu Ying Dynasty. Now he is in the cave realm. He originally thought that the world was in chaos. As a Taoist priest, he should go down the mountain to save the people. He never expected to meet a linen warlock who was proficient in physiognomy. He was indeed a
The master looked at his face and said that he was a poor man who died young and lived a life of hunger and cold. The middle-aged Taoist priest was so sad that he began to wait for death.
The group of horse thieves who had fled from Shihao Country had just made a deal and got a lot of money. They stopped their horses by the stream. When they saw such a weird man who wanted to die, they almost killed the middle-aged Taoist with a knife.
Unexpectedly, the Taoist was very happy and begged the man to draw the sword faster. The young horse thief was muttering in his heart and did not dare to use the knife. The Taoist wanted to die, so he taught the strongman who was accustomed to robbing homes and houses a lesson and said some words.
The matter of retribution of blessings and misfortunes, after all, in the eyes of the people at the foot of the mountain, he is a god of the middle and fifth realms, and he is also a genealogy master. He still has some knowledge and eloquence. He didn't make people evil, but he was frightened to the head.
The horse thieves looked at each other in shock, and in turn persuaded the middle-aged Taoist not to commit suicide.
So Chen Pingan encountered such a scene.
At this moment, the horse thieves no longer had any intention of killing people and stealing goods, and they didn't think the three horsemen were easy to bully, so they deliberately turned a blind eye.
Chen Ping'an didn't care, so he stopped the horse to rinse the horse's nose, started a fire to cook, and did whatever he had to do.
The middle-aged Taoist would not kill himself when he saw a horse thief. With his body in the cave realm, he could die for a while but could not, so he just lay on the stone and waited for death.
If the horse thieves were interested in those three people's wealth, the middle-aged Taoist would certainly stop them. They would just think that before they die, they should accumulate a small amount of karmic virtue, give birth to a good child in the next life, at least live longer, and continue to practice Taoism.
Chen Ping'an was squatting by the river with his rice bowl in his hands, and they were almost having dinner there.
An angry young horse thief caught Chen Pingan's gaze and glared at Chen Pingan: "What are you looking at? I've never seen a hero eating before?!"
A leader of horse thieves kindly went to the rock and handed a bowl of rice to the middle-aged Taoist. He said that it was not a problem to wait to die. It was better to eat when there was thunder. If there was thunder, go to the top of the mountain or under a tree and try to wait there.
Try to see if there is a possibility of being struck by lightning, then it will be settled and clean. When the middle-aged Taoist heard that it seemed reasonable, he thought about whether to buy a big iron chain in the market, but he still did not take the bowl.
