Before the summer solstice, Chen Pingan hardly left home and spent nearly ten hours a day practicing Qi.
Ning Yao was even more exaggerated and went into seclusion directly.
As soon as there is a message about the flying sword from Ning Mansion, Fan Dache will go to Ning Mansion to practice. Either he will be punched by Chen Ping'an, or he will be hit by Yan Zhuo or Dong Heitan's flying sword. Chen Sanqiu cannot take action, so he has to carry Fan Dache home. Yan
Zhuo and Dong Huafu each have swords with purple electricity and red makeup. Once they draw their swords, Fan Dache will be even worse. Now Fan Dache only hates that his qualifications are too poor. He only has "Da Che" but no "Great Enlightenment", and he still can't break through. Chen Ping'an said
As long as he, Fan Dache, reaches the golden elixir level, his sword training will come to an end, and then he will go to the wine shop and sing a few times, and he will be done.
How can it be so easy for a Longmen realm sword cultivator in the Great Wall of Sword Qi to break through the bottleneck and become a golden elixir? For a sword cultivator in the Great Wall of Sword Qi, it is like a real crowning ceremony.
The reason why the Great Wall of Sword Qi has become the strongest place for sword cultivators in the world, and can also attract waves of sword cultivators from all over the world to come here to hone their skills, is naturally a mystery. It is that sword cultivators here are like pure martial artists.
If you are punched and don't stop for a moment, you will have an excellent foundation in the realm. A solid foundation means that the bottleneck of breaking through the realm is greater. If there is a big road pressing on your shoulders, you must not straighten your back.
The same Fan Dache, the same Longmen realm, if he goes to the Hanging Mountain in the vast world, it will be much easier to break through the realm. However, if he breaks through the realm in this way, the level of the golden elixir will be much worse. In the long run, the gain will not be worth the loss. Unless those who are in Sword Qi
Only those Earthly Immortal monks who really have no hope of breaking through the Great Wall will go to Daoxuan Mountain to practice for a period of time and try their luck. After all, after the Golden Elixir, every time you reach a higher level, you will actually live a hundred or even a thousand years.
However, it is an iron rule of the Great Wall of Sword Qi that monks under the golden elixir are not allowed to go to Daoxuan Mountain to practice, in order to completely kill the luck of the young sword cultivator. So Ning Yao ran away from home and secretly went to Daoxuan Mountain.
, even with Ning Yao's qualifications, there is no need to take any shortcuts, but the criticism is still huge. But the boss swordsman turned a blind eye to this, and A Liang secretly escorted her and followed Ning Yao all the way.
When they arrived at the Capture and Fang Pavilion in Daixuan Mountain, the others only complained a few words, and no swordsman actually tried to stop Ning Yao.
In the recent martial arts performances, Chen Ping'an teamed up with Fan Dache, Yan Zhuo, and Dong Huafu. They used their natal flying swords casually, but did not wear swords. The four of them only used wooden sticks as swords. The way to determine the winner was also very strange. Someone had the wooden sword first.
Both sides lost. As a result, almost all the piles of wooden sticks placed on the martial arts field were used by Fan Dache. This was the result of Chen Pingan's rescue of Fan Dache again and again.
No matter what, Fan Dache was finally able to leave Ning Mansion standing up. Every time before going home, he would go to the wine shop to drink the cheapest Zhuhai Dongtian wine.
Chen Sanqiu would also chat with Fan Dache about the gains and losses of sword practice and the flaws in sword shooting. When Fan Dache was drinking, he listened to the careful instructions from his good friend, his eyes bright.
Especially Chen Ping'an's suggestion that the four of them work together to fight against the senior swordsman Nalan Yexing made Fan Dache even more eager to give it a try.
Yan Zhuo's silk and satin shop, in addition to selling more than a hundred Sword Immortal seals one after another, also released a brand new book of Jian Sword Immortal seals, and there was also a bonus bamboo fan with the seal
Some private seals that are not included in the seals of the Emperor Jianxian, such as the bamboo fan bones and fan surfaces are still made of ordinary materials, and the skills are only used in the poems, lines, and seal scripts.
Just like the large and small restaurants are forced to hang couplets by Diezhang Winery, Jianqi Great Wall and the large and small cloth shops and satin shops are also forced to give away some folding fans, powder sachets and other exquisite items to Yan Zhuo's shop. They are just guests, especially
Those wealthy women who come from well-off families and have no shortage of private money don't seem to like other shops. In fact, many women may not really like the seals and folding fans of Yan's shop, but only a few women, including Li Cai,
The Sword Immortal and many women from wealthy families all visited Yan's shop. It seemed that if women didn't go there to buy something, they would have to pay attention to others. How could this be done?
Not only that, but for the first time, some of the usually dull-looking old men, who had heard something after drinking at Diezhang Liquor Shop, actually came to Yan’s shop by themselves or invited their family members to go to Yan’s shop.
I bought some exquisite silks and satins that I didn’t see much of, and gave them to my women along with the folding fans. Many women actually felt that the purchase was expensive, but when they looked at the expectations in the eyes of the dull men at home, they could only say that they liked it.
.Afterwards, in your free time, in the middle of summer, to escape the heat and enjoy the coolness, open the folding fan and enjoy the cool breeze. Take a look at the beautiful words on the fan. If you don’t understand, ask others quietly. Once you understand the meaning, you will feel that it is really good.
Chen Ping'an finished his Qi refining that day, took a walk in the night, and came to the Dragon-Zhanying Pavilion alone.
Ning Yao is currently in seclusion in a secret room. Before the seclusion, Ning Yao didn't say much. He only said that he didn't want to break through the realm and become Nascent Soul. Anyway, there was no risk.
Chen Ping'an will stay at the Sword Qi Great Wall for at least five years. If the war still hasn't started by then, he will have to rush back to Aquarius Continent. After all, there are a lot of things going on in his hometown of Luoluo Mountain, and he needs to leave immediately.
Return to the Xuanxuan Mountain. Today's cross-continental flying sword communication, the Sword Qi Great Wall and the Xuanxuan Mountain are both very strictly controlled. It requires two hands to verify that both are correct before there is a chance to send or get it. This is for Chen Pingan
, it will be particularly troublesome.
It's not that we can't find the right time to go to Daoxuan Mountain, and then hand over the secret letter and family letters to Old Dragon City's Fan family's Osmanthus Island, or Sun Jiashu's Mountain Turtle. Generally speaking, the two sides are not breaking the rules, and they can win the treasure vase.
Zhou will help forward it to Luopo Mountain. Now Chen Ping'an, it is not too difficult to accomplish this, and of course there will be a price. Otherwise, the inspection of Feijian at the Jianqi Great Wall and Daoxuan Mountain will become a big deal.
It’s a joke. Being a swordsman and a Taoist king is just a show-off. But Chen Ping’an is not afraid of paying the necessary price, but he doesn’t want to involve the Fan family and the Sun family too much with Luoluo Mountain outside of their fair and honest business.
If someone is doing business with Luopo Mountain with good intentions, he, the owner of Luopo Mountain, cannot be dragged into many whirlpools before the dividends are distributed.
Chen Pingan walked down Dragon Dragon Cliff and returned to the small house. Originally, there was only a side room with a seal table. Now there is an extra table. It is a map of Longquan County and the kiln affairs supervisor's office drawn by Chen Pingan.
When the officials saw it, they would probably be unhappy. Because on this map, all the Longquan kilns, Tiankui kiln, Xingdou kiln, Wenchang kiln, Wulong kiln, Chongxiao kiln, Huahua kiln, large and small, are accurately drawn.
Tongyin kiln, paperweight kiln, Ganoderma kiln, Yuqin kiln, lotus kiln...
There are also two booklets on the table, both handwritten by Chen Ping'an. One records the historical inheritance of all Long Kiln entrances, and the other records the origins and circulation of a total of fourteen major surnames in the town. Both are written in small regular script, densely packed.
It is estimated that the Huaihuang County Government Office and the Dali Xingbu Government Office would not be happy if they saw this.
Many records were written by Chen Pingan based on his memory, and most of the secret files were secretly collected bit by bit through Luolu Mountain in the past few years.
Chen Ping'an put his hands in his sleeves and shook his body gently back and forth, staring at the map.
Without turning his head, he stretched out his sleeves and opened the pages of one of the books with two fingers. It was Zhengyang Mountain. He glanced at it and turned it again. It was the Xu family of Qingfeng City.
They are all old acquaintances.
The eighteen generations of ancestors are all clearly recorded in the books. It is estimated that Chen Ping'an knows the details of their respective mountains and families better than the direct descendants of these two wealthy immortal families.
These are two main volumes that have been roughly completed, and there will be two supplementary volumes with more text content. One is about the sale of natal porcelain in Long Kiln, and the Aquarius Island immortals who may be the buyers.
Family, Bizhou sect, in addition to the Ma family in Xinghua Lane, which seems to be the lowest level of the market, there is also the Qionglin sect, who is aloof and can use money to communicate with gods. When I write about the Qionglin sect in Luzhou, Beiju, I can't avoid it.
Starting with Xu Xuan, and then He Xiaoliang, the leader of the Qingliang Sect, it also involves the Shen Gao Sect, the leader of the immortal family on the Aquarius Island Mountain. The other book is about the wealthy people in the small town and the Qiansi of the many immortal families outside the Lizhu Cave.
Wanli, the two volumes will naturally be intertwined and implicated in each other.
Chen Pingan walked out of the house, and Nalan Yexing stood at the door, looking a little solemn and a little angry, because beside the old man stood an unnamed disciple, Cui Wei, a Jindan sword cultivator who was born and raised in the Jianqi Great Wall.
Nalan's night-walking murderous intent was so intense that he seemed to be tempted to kill this man on the spot if he couldn't help it.
Chen Ping'an understood clearly and smiled at the old man: "Grandpa Nalan doesn't have to blame himself so much. When I have time in the future, I will have a heart-to-heart talk with Grandpa Nalan."
Nalan Yexing nodded, turned to Cui Wei and said: "From tonight on, you and I, Nalan Yexing, will no longer have the slightest bit of master-disciple friendship."
Cui Wei looked indifferent and just cupped his fists to apologize to the swordsman.
As for what Cui Wei is thinking at the moment, a person who has been able to endure it until now will definitely not reveal it at all.
Nalan's night walk passed by in a flash.
Chen Ping'an moved two chairs out, and Cui Wei sat down gently, "Mr. Chen should have guessed it."
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "I was a little suspicious at the beginning, because the surname is too eye-catching. Once I was bitten by a snake, I was afraid of well ropes for ten years, so I couldn't help but think more about it. But after such a long period of observation, my original suspicion has subsided.
Most likely, after all, you have never left the Great Wall of Sword Qi. It is hard to believe that someone can be so forbearing, and I can’t understand why you are willing to pay so much. So, can it be said that the real preacher who first led you to the path of spiritual practice?
, is it a chess piece that Cui Han placed on the Sword Qi Great Wall a long time ago?"
Cui Wei nodded, "Mr. Chen's guess is correct. It's not just me, almost everyone who is unwilling to admit the existence of spies, such as the Huangzhou in Dayuling Lane, and the path of cultivation all originated from inconspicuous people.
Accidents leave no trace, so we are completely kept in the dark even from the beginning. From then on, what we should do and what we should say are all under extremely subtle control. Eventually, one day, Cui Wei, for example, I will suddenly learn
Someone who meets the code's instructions will voluntarily enter the Ning Mansion to reveal his identity to Mr. Chen."
Cui Wei said straightforwardly: "Even if Mr. Chen asked me about the past, I would not talk about it. If I did, it would be meaningless. The first person to preach for Cui Wei had already died in the southern battlefield. Cui Wei visited Ning Mansion today.
Let me tell you one thing. From now on, Mr. Chen only needs to leave the secret letters sent to Aquarius Island to Cui Wei. Of course, Mr. Chen can choose to believe it or not."
Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Of course I don't believe you, and I won't give you any letters. But don't worry, your Cui Wei is of no use or harm to the Ning Mansion now, and I won't do anything unnecessary. In the future, Cui Wei will still be Cui Wei, but he will go less often.
It’s just the implication of Nalan Yexing’s anonymous disciple.”
Cui Wei took out a pebble from his sleeve and handed it to Chen Ping'an. The golden elixir sword cultivator didn't say a word.
Chen Pingan took over and found out that Cui Dongshan had picked up the stones from the Yuying Cliff Creek in Chunlu Garden.
Chen Ping'an took the stone, put it in his sleeve, and said with a smile: "In the future, when you and I meet, we won't be in Ning Mansion. Try to go to the wine shop as much as possible. Of course, you and I should try to meet less often, so as not to make people suspicious. I only need to ask for something."
You will slightly move your "Nothing" sign on Cui Wei. From next month, I will not talk about myself having nothing to do with drinking with friends. If I want to send and receive letters, I will first move the "Nothing" sign, and then I will only
I will show up to meet you on the first day of the Lunar New Year. If there are no exceptions, the next month will be postponed to the second day of the Lunar New Year. If there are exceptions, I will also greet you when I meet you. Generally speaking, I will send you letters during the year.
Two letters at most are enough. If there is a better way to contact you or if you have any concerns, you can come up with a charter and tell me back."
"remember."
Cui Wei stood up and left silently.
Chen Pingan stood up without seeing him off.
Nalan Yexing appeared under the eaves and sighed: "I know people, I know their faces, but I don't know their hearts."
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "You should be glad that there is one less 'bad case' around you."
There is no need to say anything nice for Cui Wei or help Nalan Ye Xing scold Cui Wei.
Nalan Yexing smiled bitterly and even sighed.
To be continued...
