Zhongtu Suishan.
On the top of the mountain, a golden-armored god holding a sword in both hands slowly opened his eyes.
The real name of this tiger spirit is Zhou You, and its divine name is Dajiao.
There are nine mountains and rivers in the vast world, and the number one mountain god in the world.
Zhou You looked at the swordsman in blue shirt standing thousands of miles away.
Not far or near, this person happened to be on the border of Beiyue, and he was accompanied by a retinue.
Zhou You frowned slightly, thinking together, his dream shattered, and there was a slight sound of cracks in porcelain between heaven and earth.
Looking around at the green-shirted man in the distance, he asked, "How did you do this?"
After all, even the peak Ascension Realm monks cannot do this by forcefully dragging a Central-Earth Mountain King into a certain dream state.
Besides, who can do this kind of thing when they are full? This is not a fun thing.
Of course, except for the Huolong master from Luzhou in Beiju, he did it twice. The first time was the act of enlightenment by Huolong Zhenren from the Immortal Realm to the Ascension Realm. He once sleepwalked in the Five Mountains and Lakes.
The second time was that the old god was just bored. To use the words of Master Huolong, even a poor man could not afford a cross-continental ferry, so he could only use some unsophisticated tricks to enjoy the great rivers and mountains.
Already.
The young Yin official looked sincere and said: "Is it possible that sincerity leads to spirituality, and heaven and earth will work together in time?"
The burly golden-armored god took a deep breath, smiled, raised a palm, and tapped the hilt of the sword with his palm.
Damn, it's very familiar, couldn't be more familiar, because it sounds like the tone of an old scholar.
Zhou You and Chen Pingan have actually met many times.
The last time we attended a meeting at the Confucian Temple, neither party said a word. The young official seemed to be a little guilty and did not dare to get close to the great god Suishan.
After all, the first time he "visited Suishan", Chen Ping'an was still an ignorant boy with straw sandals. He once split the landscape restrictions of Suishan with a sword and committed an act of great disrespect.
Because of this incident, many monks on the mountaintops of Middle-earth were suspicious. After that, the temple received a lot of oblique letters asking about this matter, and Zhou You was too lazy to reply.
Is it the truly invincible one from Qing Ming who left Bai Yujing and traveled far to Suishan with his sword? Or are the old swordsmen of the Great Wall of Sword Qi settling old scores with Suishan?
As for Haoran's local sword cultivators, who dares to act so arrogantly and want to go to the Merit Forest to eat in prison and read books about sages?
In addition, there was another time, but the two sides did not meet because it was Chen Pingan who was forcibly dragged here to meet with the Holy Master.
It is not appropriate to show up when traveling around at that time, so as not to reveal the secret.
Chen Pingan bowed and apologized: "I was young and ignorant, acted impulsively, and often caused offense."
Zhou You shook his head and said: "It's just an unintentional act, you don't need to pay too much attention to it."
Every injustice has its own owner, and every debt has its own owner. Suishan was restrained by the sword, and Zhou You had no prejudice against the straw-shoe boy. If he had to settle the score, he would have to blame it on the old scholar who made the connection.
It's just that the old scholar was so shameless that he kidnapped an ancient sword pill named "Xiao Fengdu" from Suishan.
The root of this object is somewhat similar to the "Niwan" sword embryo presented by Wu Yi of Ziyang Mansion. It was a treasure refined by the real person who was stationed in the Five Mountains of the Central Plains. It has special magical powers, like a military talisman, and is equivalent to being tied to a mountain.
Those who have good luck can enter the mountain with tokens in hand to open the door to the real cave ruins. As for how many blessings they will get in the future, it is impossible to say whether the Qi practitioner will enter the treasure mountain and return empty, or return with a full load.
It's a pity that Chen Ping'an didn't know how to practice in the future. The opportunity didn't come, so he never got in. He just managed to refine it into his natal object, but still failed to become a genuine sword cultivator. Moreover, he was born in the shabby alley of Lizhu Cave.
The young man was simple-minded at that time and failed to hear some hint from the old scholar, so he never took this thing with him to travel to Suishan. If only Chen Ping'an could have left before visiting the Great Wall of Sword Qi for the second time.
After traveling to the Divine Continent of the Middle Earth and Suishan, where he cultivated immortality and gained a connection with the Tao, he finally succeeded in refining the sword. The young man would have to go to the Great Wall of Sword Qi again without many ups and downs.
Regarding this matter, the old scholar and Zhou You had a review in the early years. The old scholar regretted it and was heartbroken. He only said that he had made a mistake and blamed me.
It turns out that Chen Ping'an hadn't drunk wine at that time. He only heard Master Wen Sheng say that Suishan's flower and fruit wine was a unique thing in the world. How could a young man take it seriously? Besides, he was thin-skinned, so he felt that he had cut it with a sword for no reason.
With the mountain and water formation at the mountain gate, how dare you ask for a drink? But the old scholar changed his mind and said that the great god Suishan is the most generous, he is a man of great arrogance, and he is full of charlatanism. There are fairy money everywhere in the mountain.
, no matter how lucky you are, you can pick up some. If you don’t pick up the mountain god, you won’t be happy... Do you think Chen Ping’an will come to Suishan to find a way to visit the immortals? It’s only twelve or ten in a day.
Every hour, maybe eleven, you can see the figure of the young man walking with his head down.
You can avoid looking at the old scholar scratching his head and beating his chest in annoyance when you travel around, but you can't escape the noisy chatter of the old scholar's mother-in-law. It's really annoying, so he had to say, "Take some detours and endure more hardships."
Isn’t that a good thing?”
In the end, it was fine for Zhou You not to speak. When he heard this, the old scholar seemed to have finally found a reason to jump and curse, "What a bastard! He is tall and can stand taller. He is older and has more abilities. He just likes to stand and talk without backache, right?
? Enduring hardship? How else do you want that child to endure hardship?!"
Zhou You said disapprovingly: "I was born in a poor alley, lost my parents at a young age, was unable to study, and was isolated and helpless, so I had to wander around and work hard to survive. To be honest, this kind of hardship is nothing. In the Zhongyue area of ​​my country, not to mention ten thousand people with
It would not be difficult to find hundreds or even thousands of people of the same age who have been in the same situation as Chen Pingan."
The old scholar sighed, probably unwilling to say more about the matter, and ended the topic with "Insensitive, you know nothing".
Finding joy in suffering is just the way to live in the world. Not knowing suffering is the way to establish oneself.
Suishan Mountain in Zhongtu is unparalleled in its majesty, developing all things, and is as high as the sky.
Wuyue Mountain must be domed and swollen, as high as the sky, and the watercourse should be deep and wide, with a long history, and open to the sea.
Therefore, some Confucian sages have commented on this, saying that the way of the sage is high, similar to a mountain, and reaches the highest point in the sky.
Standing next to Chen Ping'an, this was the first time Qing Tong saw the magnificent scene of Suishan with his own eyes. It is indeed the only one in the world.
No wonder the most holy master would choose this place as a temporary "study" to do battle with the great ancestor of Natuo Yueshan.
Qing Tong had previously traveled to the Five Mountains of Aquarius Continent with Chen Ping'an. He only said that the mountains and rivers contained the Tao Qi of heaven and earth. Compared with it, it was like a middle-level Qi practitioner of the Earth Immortal type who met an Ascension level practitioner.
Suishan's flower and fruit wine is as famous as the Qingshenshan wine in Zhuhai Cave and the Baihua wine in Baihua Paradise. In addition, the vegetarian restaurant in Shanjun Temple is even more famous in Jiuzhou.
The god named "Dajiao" travels around, has a high status, and has vast supernatural powers. It is said that he is much higher than the other four Chinese-earth tigers.
According to the old temple master, as long as he is in the Suishan realm during this tour, he can be regarded as most of the fourteenth realm monks, second only to Jingsheng Xiping who is in the merit forest.
Zhou You said to Chen Ping'an, "You and I will meet at the mountain gate."
Chen Pingan took out a hiking stick in his hand, nodded, and walked to the mountain gate of Suishan in one step. Apparently, Zhou You approved and allowed Chen Pingan to use a Guangyin stream as a long bridge across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.
In this dream, if Qing Tong deliberately conceals his whereabouts, then the relationship between Qing Tong and Chen Ping'an is like a night ship to the vast world.
Just as Qing Tong was about to move, he noticed the sharp gaze of the golden-armored god, so he had to stop immediately, stretched out two fingers, and held the edge of the power fence to express his apology.
You, Kirihasu Seito, want to set foot on our Suishan Shinto?
Where is the customs clearance document issued by the Zhongtu Confucian Temple? Otherwise, why don't you go and ask the sage for a verbal decree?
Zhou You appeared at the gate of the mountain. Next to it stood a huge stone tablet with the four words "Only Heaven is Above" engraved on it.
Both parties climbed up the steps together. There were many scenic spots along the way. Many ancient stone tablets with dragon seals, phoenix seals and celestial scripts were destroyed and eroded by the long river of time, so that no one in later generations knew their true meaning.
Suishan's stone carvings are unparalleled in the world both in terms of quantity and number. There are thousands of existing stone tablets and more than 10,000 cliff inscriptions.
It is said that all the Suishan stele rubbings in the world, as long as they are written by the genealogy monks on the mountain, must be divided with the Tiger Mansion on a scheduled basis.
Zhou You and Li Yehou, Lord of the South Sea, have similar meanings, but this Suishan god makes it more clear.
"Do you know that in the future, meritorious deeds will become very valuable, extremely valuable, no matter how useless they are? Especially those Ascension Realm monks with outstanding military exploits will regard this object as one of the great opportunities to break through the realm.
, as long as there are merits and virtues to protect you, it is like being in an excellent Taoist temple with both the right time and the right place. From then on, you can get twice the result with half the effort. Even if the retreat fails in the end and the breakthrough is unsuccessful, there will not be too many sequelae. For Longhushan Zhao
The sound of nature, Liu Jubao and his like, if they make further progress, there is hope that things will come true. For people like Aai Aizhou Wei She, it will be like rain after a long drought, and another village will be bright with flowers."
"I just want to talk about the next meeting of the founders of the three religions. It turns out that a person like you who has great merits and virtues is so "uniquely blessed by nature" that I even envy him."
"Besides, it's a foregone conclusion that the land will sink to the southeast. But maybe others don't know the secret behind it, but you don't know that then the energy of the entire vast world will naturally flow from other parts of the eight continents, especially from the northwest, to Tong.
The side of Yezhou is tilted. This is where the main road is. Like water flowing from high to low, it is the general trend. This is also the reason why Qing Tong stood by and remained confident, because Qing Tong can just sit back and enjoy the results. I don't understand.
It’s fine to say that you were kept in the dark, but since you know what you are doing, why are you anxious?”
"You are just using 30% to 40% of your own merits to get 10% to 20% of the income for Tongyezhou. Do you not understand this account?"
"Chen Pingan, tell me what you really think. Say it so that I can laugh."
After being "reprimanded" all over, Chen Ping'an smiled. He was not a senior like his elders and could not say such angry words.
The golden-armored god caught a glimpse of the young man's face and eyes, and said angrily: "I'm familiar with the old scholar, but that doesn't mean I'm familiar with you."
"The Tao is impartial and the Dharma is like falling rain."
Chen Pingan explained softly: "In this majestic rain that benefits the earth, I am in it, and I cannot be an exception. Of course I can learn from Qing Tong and wait for good fortune, but there is a problem here. I am a Qi practitioner.
, and especially for sword cultivators, the breakthroughs achieved in exchange for merit, even if it is one breakthrough after another, such as directly changing from Nascent Soul to Yu Pu and then to an immortal, but for a pure sword cultivator, in the long run, it is still
If the gain outweighs the loss, this account may have to be calculated in this way."
Picking up the hiking stick in his hand, Chen Pingan pointed to the mountainside, raised it a little higher, pointed to the top of Suishan Mountain, and said slowly: "If you walk fast, you can only spin around there, but if you walk slowly,
But they can go all the way to the top of the mountain before stopping."
Zhou You smiled and said: "A great swordsman is so worthless in the eyes of Yin Guan?"
Chen Ping'an can think this way, and it cannot be said that he is completely wrong. It is a kind of abandonment of the near for the distant. But the problem is that an Immortal Realm sword cultivator, even in the Middle-earth Divine Continent,
As expected, Chen Ping'an gave the final answer, "I want to become a pure swordsman in the Fourteenth Realm."
When I heard this statement when I was traveling around, I looked at him sideways and was speechless for a long time.
To be continued...
