He passed by Xianjia Ferry several times before. Except for the one at the border of Shushui Country and Songxi Country, and the time he bought and sold at Qingfufang, Chen Ping'an either came and went in a hurry, or he just went shopping without buying. Today he simply went
After taking Pei Qian and the others around the ferry, Chen Ping'an gave each of the four people in the painting a small summer coin, allowing them to buy items on their own. The fairy money on the mountain has a saying of "thousands and hundreds of ten".
A piece of snow money is worth a thousand taels of silver from a secular dynasty. A piece of Xiaoshu money is worth a hundred thousand taels of real gold and silver. You don’t have to expect extravagant spiritual weapons and magic weapons, but there are some rare and interesting mountain objects with interesting craftsmanship. Buy a few and put them in your pocket.
It’s not difficult to take it out for daily use as a treat for your eyes.
They made an appointment with the four people in the painting to meet at the most famous place on the ferry an hour later. Chen Ping'an took Pei Qian to go shopping at the ferry. In a place like Qingfufang where an expert is in charge, there is a possibility of picking up things.
They are extremely small and relatively expensive. Some of the baggage houses without a place to stay are the ones that make people try their luck the most and test their eyesight. Most of these people are casual cultivators in the mountains and rivers. They live all over the world and like to learn from some family traditions.
They fell into the hands of the rich and powerful children of the past and collected them at low prices, or they claimed to be the ancestors of the family. The ancestors of the sect had produced golden elixirs and Yuan Ying earth immortals. There were roughly these ways to sell things. Buyers did not need to care about these. Chen Ping'an back then
I learned a lot from Xu Yuanxia, a bearded hero who traveled all over the world. Later, Yao Jinzhi explained that "pairing in a cage" also belongs to this industry.
Pei Qian was not deeply involved in the world, so he was dazzled by the various fairy calligraphy and paintings, spiritual treasures, and charming mountain monsters that were found in various shops. Pei Qian was a bit good, and was ridiculed by Zhu Lian as a little glutton. He liked to collect things and would not refuse anyone who came.
, doesn’t like spending money and can’t afford to spend a penny. So no matter how coveted the object is, she will only look at it a few times and will never open the small sachet that Mrs. Gui gave as a gift. In the end, she used it as a money bag. She really likes it.
She just cut it into pieces, looked at it, and treated it as her own. She just kept it in the store temporarily.
Chen Ping'an had never been lavish, so he and Pei Qian walked around for about half an hour and walked through more than a dozen shops without taking out a single copper coin.
Halfway through, he met Bao Fangzhai, a middle-aged lame man with a simple and honest appearance. He claimed his surname was Liu, and you could call him Liu Gangzi. He saw Chen Pingan, who was dressed in white robes and carrying a white sheath sword on his back. He followed him for seven or eight hundred people.
Bu Lu, who was honest in appearance but not clumsy in speech, said that his grandfather was the general of Wenjing Kingdom. After the fall of Wenjing Kingdom, His Majesty the Emperor died on the way to escape and lost one of the seventeen treasures of Jiaotai Palace.
The Chihu Button Jade Seal was brought to the people by his grandfather. Now a great immortal master from Qingluan Kingdom has collected sixteen treasures, and the only thing left is this "Magic Treasure of Condensing Luck". In this collection industry, "seeking goodness and seeking perfection"
is the first priority, so this precious treasure that "may also contain the dragon spirit of national destiny" is priceless.
The reason why the man followed him seven or eight hundred steps away was that, firstly, the young man next to him looked like a wealthy young man. He had a good temper and did not chase people away, but listened carefully. Secondly, the man really believed that if the business did not open, there would be big trouble.
He had to suffer a lot. The New Year's Eve that he had finally deceived last year was related to three small summer coins, which could buy him several lives. He lived a miserable and miserable year. According to the rules, once the first month of this year is over, if there is no more
If the wrong person takes the bait, he will really suffer. The country has national laws and regulations, and it can really kill people.
In order to sell some things to survive, the man did everything possible. As a Qi practitioner in the third realm, he shamelessly followed along without saying a word, and even took the initiative to introduce the scenery of the ferry to the young man.
This Xianjia Ferry on the border of Qingluan Kingdom is called Fengwei Ferry. It originated from the beginning of the ferry's construction. It was once a small town. In history, there was a Jade Pu Realm deity who came from a young age here.
As a wild cultivator in Shanze, he entered the upper five realms with great perseverance and great opportunities. Various deeds of gods spread throughout the continent. He is extremely famous among all the wild cultivators in Aquarius Continent. His ancestral home is located on a road called Jiafeng.
The alley of the trail happened to be at the end of the alley, so in later generations this ferry was named Fengwei Ferry.
Since the ferry is located at the border of the three countries, in order to compete for the ownership of this alley and this ancestral house, for hundreds of years, the Tang family of Qingluan Kingdom and the two neighboring countries used pens and knives to fight on paper and on the battlefield.
There were countless fights, but the three parties had a tacit understanding that the war would not affect the ferry. For this reason, Guanhu Academy sent gentlemen and wise men to mediate the matter several times.
Thanks to the man's recommendation, there is a kind of well-water fairy brew in the ferry that is unique in the world. A piece of snow can cost a small pot. The high-ranking officials of Qingluan Kingdom like to use it to show off their extravagance. The young master is actually on the corner of a street.
I bought a pot of well-water wine from the shop and asked the shopkeeper for two white bowls. After I sat down, I actually smiled and extended my hand to the man to sit down and drink together. The man originally wanted to stand aside and act pitiful, but maybe the young master felt sympathy.
, so I bought his shabby belongings. It was really because of the alcohol bug in my stomach that I sat down and drank. While drinking, I complained that I couldn’t control my mouth. I thought that I was too greedy and drank too much, so I would probably end up like this.
I had mixed feelings about this transaction for a while, and I just tasted it as a bowl of guillotine wine.
Chen Ping'an clinked the wine bowls with the man and asked with a smile: "Since this jade seal is valuable, and there are immortal masters waiting for it to complete the seventeen treasures of Wenjing Kingdom, why don't you just come to sell it directly?"
The man had already prepared a plan to deal with such problems as buyers, and said with a wry smile on his face: "That old earthly immortal, his cultivation is as high as the heavens, but his character... I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the money if I take it."
The man's voice was deep and he spoke half of his words vaguely.
Chen Pingan nodded. This explanation makes sense. The gods on the mountain are said to be cultivators, but this path has eight hundred side paths and three thousand left paths. So it’s different that there are Ascension Realm monks like Du Mao on the mountain? It’s earlier, it’s different.
Is there Jiejiang Zhenjun Liu Zhimao from Shujian Lake? As for the evil-minded Qi practitioners from Fuji Zong Huantianjie, if their skills were not inferior to others, they would end up being killed thousands of miles away. Once he and Lu Tai were surrounded and killed, now
But he is really wealthy. With this kind of financial resources, there may be one or two more golden elixir immortals in the world.
The man probably felt that if he didn't take some strong medicine, he would miss this foreigner who was not short of money. He put down the wine bowl and whispered: "Actually, my ancestor was General Wen Jingguo, and the words were reserved for His Holiness."
, you brought it to me to deceive people. My grandfather was actually the owner of Anlefang, the capital of the old Wenjing Kingdom. Anlefang was first used as a place for the royal family to raise rare and exotic animals. Later, due to lack of financial resources, it was abandoned and used to house errant animals.
Later, she was deposed as a eunuch, a palace maid, and the subjugated king of the Wenjing Kingdom. She grew up in the filthy Anlefang when she was young. She was often taken care of by my grandfather when she was a child. Later, she became a prosperous person. From an illegitimate child who was hidden outside,
Somehow he became the emperor. No matter why the country fell, he was still a caring monarch. After that, he treated my grandfather very politely. After the capital was attacked by the Yunxiao Kingdom army, he fled to Anlefang. I was young at that time and can't remember anything.
, in short, this jade seal was handed down from my grandfather in the end. Before he left, my grandfather also told me that I must give the jade seal to the descendants of Wen Jingguo and not treat it as my own property..."
At this point, the man took a sip of wine and said with dull eyes, "I'm an unworthy descendant. I'm sorry for my grandfather's dying instructions, and I'm also sorry for the rumored Prince Wenjing who changed his surname and went to the mountains to practice Taoism."
The man's lips trembled and there were tears in his eyes, "Sir, please do a good deed and buy this jade seal, which is a national treasure. I can then buy wine and get drunk and pretend to be stupid. I don't have to face it every day and feel guilty to death."
"
Chen Ping'an poured the man another bowl of amber Shuijing Xianren Brewing, shook his head and said, "I can treat you to wine, but I won't buy anything."
The man still refused to give up, "Young master, don't you even take a look at it? I believe you can tell whether something is real or fake, and I won't regret it even if you bargain hard."
Chen Ping'an still shook his head, "I don't have any luck with wealth...so let's forget it. Find a buyer who knows the goods and is predestined. Don't waste your time on me."
Just as Pei Qian was about to speak, he glanced at Chen Pingan and immediately shut up.
After the man drank the second bowl of wine, he apologized and thanked him, then stood up and left in despair.
Pei Qian then said softly: "It's quite pitiful."
Chen Ping'an drank wine, "It's true that the pity is real, but the things may not be real."
Pei Qian wondered: "I haven't seen it, how do I know? What if it's true? We're not in a hurry anyway."
Chen Ping'an patiently explained: "If this unexpected event really falls on us, this is of course the best outcome. Let's talk about the worst outcome."
Pei Qian was confused, "Isn't it just a fake? We got it wrong and we cheated that guy out of some fairy money?"
Pei Qian suddenly slapped the table with both hands and said distressedly: "This is intolerable!"
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "What's the worst outcome? The worst case scenario is to design a fairy dance for others. Not only will they be forcefully bought and sold, but maybe once we can afford the fairy money, the other party will take advantage of it. So we might as well
Killing people and stealing goods. Let's just say that we are not familiar with this person. Even if his nature may not be that bad, once he encounters a difficult obstacle, such as owing a lot of debt, the person who owes the debt is weak and the person who collects the debt is ruthless.
Taken together, the poor man must be hateful. If we pity him now, who will pity us then?"
Pei Qian thought carefully and said, "There are quite a few of us. Anyway, we are justified. How about we kill them with a few punches?"
Chen Ping'an swallowed his chest and said, "When you go out, if you only rely on your fists to reason, then Du Mao can meet us, but we can't meet others?"
Pei Qian said aggrievedly: "But we are good people? The old thief Du is not. The evil man was struck by lightning. After death, he went into the oil pan, pulled out his tongue, cut out his heart and liver, and poured red iron juice into his mouth..."
Chen Pingan interrupted Pei Qian's nonsense, "Where did you know these things?"
Pei Qian said with lingering fear: "Last time I was admiring lanterns at Old Dragon City during the Lantern Festival, there were so many lantern festivals that were said by novices to 'warn the world and educate people, shock evil and encourage good'. I stared at it with wide eyes for a while.
I don’t think it has much to do with me, but it’s said in the book, if there are problems, correct them and encourage them.”
Chen Ping'an now has a small medicinal wine in his sword gourd, so he can't put it in the Shuijingxianren wine, which is a specialty of the ferry. He also has a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine donated by the Fan family and placed in the jade plaque nearby. In fact, there is no shortage of it in the past year.
After a good drink to satisfy my craving, I only bought two jars from the store. I planned to put them together with the sweet-scented osmanthus wine later. When they arrived at Luolu Mountain, they buried them together behind the bamboo building. One jar every ten years was considered one of Chen Pingan's rich assets.
Already.
At the entrance of Bee Tail Alley, I met Wei Xian and four other people who were arriving one after another.
During this trip to Fengwei Ferry, Chen Ping'an didn't find anything particularly interesting. He only bought Pei Qian a book about sages with rich pictures and text. The prints were well-engraved and every word was full of spirit.
Just when Chen Ping'an was about to leave the ferry, a young man carrying an empty wine bottle walked out of the alley. He was tall and had a fine iron chain-like belt around his waist.
Chen Ping'an narrowed his eyes for a moment, but soon returned to his normal expression. He decided to do more than not, and pretended not to recognize him.
Unexpectedly, the man saw Chen Pingan, walked quickly to Chen Pingan, stretched out his finger and pointed. He probably vaguely recognized Chen Pingan, but couldn't remember his last name, and he looked a little anxious for a while.
Whether it was a blessing or a curse, Chen Pingan had no choice but to say hello with a smile and said in the elegant language of Aquarius Island: "We met once at the gate of that small town. I was inside with the gatekeeper, and you were standing there
Outside the fence gate, you have such a good memory that you can still recognize me after such a long time."
The burly young man smiled and nodded, feeling a little happy, "Yes, it's you. Apart from the gatekeeper, you are the first local person in the town that I met. I never thought I would see you here again. At first I thought
I dare not recognize you, you have changed too much, you said that I have a good memory, but I think you are not bad at all, you are even better than me."
Seeing Chen Ping'an holding two pots of Shuijing Xianren Brewing in his hands, the young man with a green stubble on his chin smiled and said: "You have lost money on Shuijing Liquor. The real Xianren Brewing can be drunk from the three oldest wells."
Wine is made from water. The two pots you have are the result of unscrupulous merchants who dug more than a dozen new wells without permission. The taste is not right. Come on, I will take you to buy real old water well wine, otherwise you are a bee-tailed person.
If you cross the river, it will be a wasted trip."
As soon as he took a step, he laughed and said: "Forget it, the world is dangerous, let's not get close."
The burly young man reported the addresses of two wine shops to Chen Pingan, "If you want to buy wine, go by yourself. I won't make people think that I'm being courteous for nothing, so that both of you and I won't be worried."
He said goodbye to Chen Pingan with fists clasped in his arms, and strode away to buy a drink.
He is a cheerful person.
Chen Pingan sighed in his heart.
The iron chain used as a belt by the burly young man was clearly the thick iron chain in the lock shaft of Lizhu Dongtian before it shattered and fell. At that time, Chen Ping'an heard that this person had taken away this great opportunity, except for that
The Five Elements Object, among the many magic weapons hidden in the market in Lizhu Cave Sky at that time, this object is the most precious together with the five or six items including Song Jixin's green gourd, mandrill pot, and a bright evil-suppressing mirror.
The dragon-locking iron chain is the most valuable. It was once a demon-binding rope that successfully bound the last real dragon in the world. It is of such high quality that you can imagine.
Now that it has been refined into a natal object by this person, and to show it to others openly and openly, it is probably because of the boldness of a skilled person, or because the backer is high enough, or both.
That was Chen Pingan's first real contact with the outside world.
Moving Mountain Monkey in Zhengyang Mountain, Cai Jin Slips in Yunxia Mountain, Xu Family in Qingfeng City, and Fu Nanhua in Laolong City.
It was one life and death situation after another. It was the most difficult period for Chen Pingan. The helplessness was much worse than when Chen Pingan faced the Nascent Soul Jiao in Jiaolonggou and the old dragon in Laolong City in the years to come.
Du Mao, who has ascended to the Ascension Realm, will be even bigger.
But just like Lu Baixiang confided his feelings in the courtyard that time, on the road of life, as long as you can meet a flower in the desolation, everything will be different.
Chen Pingan met a good girl who smiled and made Chen Pingan feel like the richest man in the world.
How could I not like her? How could I not take her to heart?
The last time Lao Longcheng and Fan Er were drinking on the roof of a drug store, Chen Pingan said, "The girl I like, she is already the prettiest. But she is even prettier than the prettiest when I was looking at her.
, when she pretended not to know, she turned her face sideways and her eyelashes trembled slightly."
Fan Er was a little confused at the time and asked him, how much do you, Chen Pingan, really like that girl?
Chen Ping'an was a little drunk at that time, and he was just holding the sword gourd and having fun.
————
In Chen Pingan, we followed the route to find the authentic Laoshuijing Wine. The burly young man did not want to bump into the young man who had left Lizhu Cave Heaven again, so as not to arouse suspicion, so he deliberately chose a restaurant elsewhere. There was a restaurant on the way.
The introverted old man appeared quietly, came to the young man's side, and said a small thing.
The young man laughed angrily and said, "These guys are out of their minds. They really want money rather than their lives. Send a message to the people in charge and tell them to stop and stop giving people teeth."
I wanted to say something more, and wanted to take this opportunity to clean up the unhealthy trend in Fengweidu, but when I thought about the difficulty of the life of wild cultivators, the young man shook his head helplessly, "That's it, there is no need to deliberately beat them, they are all
It's your own creation. But no one in Fengweidu is allowed to provoke the group of outsiders I just met. Also, take this opportunity to help Lao Liu pay off the debt in private. According to the rules,
It’s just a few Xiaoshu coins. After this, you can find an opportunity to scare Lao Liu again and make him stop being a bad gambler. His little wealth now is enough for him to live comfortably in this life.
."
The old man asked cautiously: "If Liu Gangzi can't control himself in the future, will he gamble again?"
The burly young man said: "Then he brought it upon himself. I can help him once, but I cannot help him forever."
The old man wanted to speak but stopped.
The burly young man shook his head and said: "Although that jade seal is genuine, ordinary qigong practitioners cannot touch it. Master said, don't underestimate the residual luck of the country's subjugation. The blessings and misfortunes here are great. After all, Wen Jingguo and Chiang Kai-shek
There is also a prince who is still practicing Taoism in the mountains. As for the guy who is obsessed with collecting the seventeen treasures of Wenjing Kingdom, he is following the path of Fulong. He is suitable. We are not good at this kind of thing.
If you can't control your greed, you are just like Lao Liu. Maybe it's even worse. We Qi practitioners are cultivating immortality. We don't care about it. If we continue to gamble with God, we will get tired of living."
The old man was ordered to leave.
This old retinue who lives in seclusion at Fengweidu is the golden elixir monk who noticed Chen Ping'an's "awesomeness" at a glance.
The burly young man sighed all the way, until he bought a pot of wine and drank the most mellow and authentic fairy wine, and then his mood improved.
When he was young, he was spotted by a wandering master who was passing by the seaside. He told his family that he had excellent bones and was accepted as his disciple. His parents happily agreed, because at first the family elders were sure that he was not suitable for practicing Taoism, and he was rejected by the family for his precocious temperament.
He was regarded as trash by his peers and looked down upon. After that, he left that family at a young age, brought the Beetail Ferry to his master, and lived in a dilapidated alley at the end of the Beetle Trail.
.In these years, his cultivation level has risen rapidly, and he has seized many opportunities. However, the young man has no idea of returning home in fine clothes and proud of his high-ranking family with strict rules. He only wants to secretly go home and meet his parents.
It's enough to repay the kindness of raising him. However, the young man is always grateful to his sister, who is the direct descendant of the eldest son of the family. He repays every drop of kindness with a spring. Mountain people like to talk about this, but they don't take it seriously in their hearts. He is willing to be more serious.
This is true, so even though the master was very distressed, he still insisted on giving away the little thing that he accidentally captured as one of her dowry. It is said that the whole family was in a sensation at that time, and they couldn't believe it.
You can be a human being without owing money or feeling guilty.
He thinks this is good.
While drinking, the proprietress of the wine shop is a plain-looking woman. She is honest and sticks to her ancestral craftsmanship and the old well. She is not very good at doing business. The cornucopia of business that should have made a fortune every day was done for her.
I started a small business. After all these years, I still blush when I see this gentle neighbor next door marry and sell drinks year after year.
, will be embarrassed and annoyed, but wrinkles are also growing in the corners of her eyes little by little. The burly young man will be glad that he has met the master. Maybe one day the grandson of the landlady will be old, and he will still look like he does now.
Although Fengwei Ferry is a Xianjia ferry, there are many ordinary people who cannot escape birth, old age, illness and death.
Master always said that these people at the foot of the mountain, who have gray hair and are in their seventies, are the root of the small group of Taoists on the mountain.
Without them, the so-called monasticism is just a loft in the sky.
The burly young man didn't think too much about this. He was really too lazy to think about it. Anyway, he always liked to take things easy when it came to his practice. He would not take the initiative to harm others, and he would not be soft-hearted if he was harmed by others. Therefore, the master had always advised him to study in the Tang Family of Qingluan Kingdom and Yunxiao.
Among the three emperors of the Yan family and the He family of the Qingshan state, he chose one, and then went to the court to sharpen his Taoist heart incognito, and prescribe the right medicine early to resolve the inner demons, so that he would not have to wait until he became the Nascent Soul one day in the future, but he had been unable to shirk it.
Go, what's the point of dealing with emperors and generals all day long? The Tang emperor was extravagant and wanted to save face. He liked to compete with the gods on the mountain for financial resources. The He emperor of Qingshan had eccentric hobbies and had the astonishing "Five Charms" in the harem.
Up and down, there was a smog. Emperor Yan was ambitious and worked hard to govern, but he was ruthless. He liked the abacus more than the businessmen. It is said that he even wrote a popular "Qian Materia Medica", saying that "money is sweet, hot, and poisonous."
It is also a medicine that can stimulate the mind and can make ghosts grind mills." This sentence explains the merchant's technique.
He drank a jug of wine and paid the bill. He filled the jug with dozens of kilograms of Shuijing Immortal Brewing, put it on his waist, and walked away. He also ordered two more small jugs of fine wine, holding the two jugs between his fingers.
The woman was not surprised by this. The entire Fengwei Ferry knew that this young man had an important identity and no one dared to provoke him. He had lived deep in the alley of Jia Feng Trail since he was very young and never provoked anyone. It was said that he
He just looks after half of the alley for someone and is responsible for collecting rent. The people who can rent a courtyard on Jiafeng Trail are either casual cultivators with huge wallets or arty generals and ministers of the Three Kingdoms. The rest are just direct buyers.
The local forces in Xia Zhaizi treated the young man who grew up under their noses with great respect.
The burly young man walked back to the alley and gradually entered the depths of the alley. Fifty steps behind him, in the middle of the alley, there were two large empty houses facing each other. The posters on the doors had not been changed for hundreds of years, but were always brand new.
On the left hand side are two painted door gods, and on the right side are two Wu door gods. When the young man walked past the two houses, he threw a wine bottle with one hand, and there were a total of four painted door gods on the left and right, each of which was shining brightly.
Stretching out a golden arm, catching the wine bottle, he took it back "inside the door", and then there were words on the portraits on both sides. Wumen was holding an inexplicably extra paper-painted wine bottle. After drinking the wine, he put it in his hand.
The jug was handed out to the nearby colleagues. After drinking the wine, the four painted door gods returned to normal, except for the beard of the bearded warrior door god. The paper seemed to be a little wet, but it soon dried up as before.
The burly young man returned to the house where he lived alone. It was deserted. It had been like this for so many years. The master liked to wander around. Every time before, he vowed that he would find a beautiful master wife for him this time. Now
This time, I wasn’t going for the future master’s wife who, God knows, was still sleeping in her mother’s womb. It was for serious business. It was said that I was going for the glazed golden body of a certain upper-level five-level immortal soldier. Some of them fell into the sky.
On the territory of Aquarius Island, once you grab one of the pieces, you will make a fortune and you will have a wife. For this purpose, the master also found a close friend, otherwise he may not be able to compete with several old tortoises of the same age.
With that friend helping out, the possibilities become even greater.
The burly young man also had some concerns, worried about whether his so-called friend would be greedy for such a valuable treasure.
The master laughed and said that everyone in Aquarius Island has this possibility, but this old turtle who calls himself the Jade-faced Young Man will definitely not do it. Although this person has a hard and smelly temper, worse than a stone in a latrine, he can
This person, on the road of spiritual practice, is known as "no ghost in his heart". In this life, for the sake of loyalty to his friends and the honor and disgrace of the sect, he has fought to the death twice. After reaching the Jade Pu realm twice, he fell back to the Nascent Soul realm twice. This hero
Ruan Qiong, the master swordsmith of Fengxue Temple, is now a military saint. He was also famous for his straightforward temper in his early years. He once threatened that as long as this person needs a sword, he will
Ruan Qiong not only forged the sword immediately, but also sent it to the top of the mountain himself.
This was the first time for the burly young man to see such a resolute master, and he felt relieved.
For a moment, I was a little curious about the master's old friend whose nickname was more "elegant and chic".
————
After Chen Pingan bought two more pots of Laoshuijing Immortal Brew, the group went to the last tourist attraction in Fengweidu, which was a thousand-year-old apricot tree that covered several acres of land. The bottom of the big tree was full of empty stomachs and was full of copper coins.
With gold and silver, about this tree, the man from Baofuzhai who called himself Liu Ganzi said a lot. Before the Qingshan Kingdom emerged from the ruins of Wenjing Kingdom, this old apricot tree had a lot of stories.
The founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the Qingluan Kingdom was granted the imperial title of Emperor Mu. Later, Emperor Wenjing of the Kingdom was unwilling to lag behind and sent a temple chief to come here to confer the title. He was probably demoted to one level.
Just to join in the fun, three hundred years ago when the Yunxiao Kingdom was at its peak, a meritorious military general came here on horseback and set up a monument and wrote an article. Therefore, the people of the Yunxiao Kingdom are still used to calling him General Xing.
The emperor's tree, the prime minister's tree, the general's apricot, one tree and three imperial seals are a strange story.
Under the tree, Pei Qian took out the small sachet given to her by Aunt Gui. At that time, in addition to a few green osmanthus leaves, there was actually a small cassia branch as long as her finger, which was full of cinnamon seeds. Even if it was broken off,
The fragrance of the tree still remains undiminished, and the golden cinnamon seeds will not fall off. The osmanthus leaves and cinnamon branches are placed in the multi-treasure box, occupying an exclusive compartment. Only the empty sachet is used to hold the Chen Ping'an as a gift.
Her snow money, and a few copper coins earned through hard work, such as when she begged Sui Youyou to buy New Year goods in Laolong City and negotiate with others for one penny at a time. At that time, she made seven or eight coins in one go, all pretending
In this sachet and money bag.
Because Chen Ping'an said that the sachet is not an ordinary object, Pei Qian did not dare to tie it around his waist carelessly. He usually only dared to put it in his sleeve pocket. Now he was holding it with his hands, thinking that if he got some more apricot leaves
An apricot branch would be fine.
There are not many tourists here at Millennium Xinghua. The native people of Fukou only come here to throw money and pray for blessings during festivals. Most of the ferry passengers at Fengwei Ferry are familiar mountain businessmen who neither believe in this nor want to spend money.
So at this moment, there were only Chen Ping'an and his party, and a few groups of market children playing and riding bamboo horses. Farther away, sparse children were holding paper kites, and there were a few hanging on the high branches of the apricot trees.
A paper kite that unfortunately got tangled and broken.
Chen Ping'an saw the apricot tree where the spiritual energy was flowing faintly, and was about to leave, but found that the little lotus figure came out of the ground, standing on the hollow belly of the apricot tree like a door, and probed his head.
Soon another head emerged from the pile of money and looked at the lotus figure.
The latter climbed out of the pile of money, straightened his back, put his hands on his hips, and looked full of arrogance, but he could not hide the curiosity and excitement in his eyes.
The little guy's clothes are luxurious and funny. He wears a cute and cute bright yellow dragon robe, an ivory jade wat at his waist, and a mahogany sheath knife.
Pei Qian tugged on Chen Pingan's sleeve. Chen Pingan thought for a while, took out a piece of snow and gave it to Pei Qian, and said with a smile: "Go, remember to talk to this little fairy Xing well, and don't offend others."
Pei Qian ran over and squatted at the "small door".
After about a stick of incense, Pei Qian came back with a full load of money. Chen Pingan couldn't laugh or cry. Without saying anything, he rewarded him with a chestnut.
But this time, for the first time, the little lotus figure stood on Pei Qian's side, dancing and babbling.
Pei Qian felt a little guilty and turned around honestly, wanting to hand back the soil and the pink sapling in her hand to the apricot tree spirit. It was a pity that she took out two coins for this purpose.
Since Kexue spent money, this transaction is considered a loss.
Little Lotus is stupid and can't even speak, but the little one dressed in fancy clothes is smarter and can speak Aquarius Island's elegant language more smoothly than her Pei Qian. The little thing chatted with Little Lotus for a long time.
, Pei Qian didn't understand at that time, and then the little lotus man knocked Pei Qian's boots with his hand, pointed at the snow money in Pei Qian's hand, and after going back and forth, Pei Qian began to bargain with the little apricot tree demon.
, by the way, I also gave it a bit of bullshit, saying that the spiritual energy in my home is infinitely more abundant than here, and it is as thick as water, and you can be full with just one sip. In the end, the silly little thing just squirmed.
He pinched the dirt in front of Pei Qian and a small sapling appeared. He told Pei Qian to take it back to his hometown and find a place to plant it. He must not treat it badly and make sure it drinks enough of the spiritual energy that is like water every day.
, Pei Qian promised and beat his chest loudly, but in fact he was already prepared to eat all-you-can-eat chestnuts.
Chen Pingan understood what happened, took the soil and saplings from Pei Qian's hands, walked to the roots of the trees and squatted down.
Wearing a dragon robe, wearing a jade saber and carrying a sword, he stood among the piles of money, his eyes full of vigilance.
After some questions and answers, Chen Pingan found out the truth. It turned out that it was about to enter the fifth level, but the spiritual energy here was insufficient. To be precise, it did not dare to absorb too much spiritual energy. After all, there were so many spiritual practitioners here that it was an immortal.
At Jia Fukou, it was able to take root and practice here only by relying on three so-called imperial seals that were not so justifiable. The courts of the Three Kingdoms actually didn't care much about it. What's more, the power behind this ferry and the decline of spiritual energy has always been the most taboo on the mountain top of the Xianjia family.
Things like Du Mao forcibly occupying the spiritual energy contained in the entire Wutong Small Cave. Although it is more selfish, it is to ascend to other places, but in fact once the ascension is successful, according to the rules established by the sages of the world, the Tongye Sect can make meritorious deeds.
By his side, Xuegong Academy will protect the word "Zong" for at least a thousand years. It is undeniable that this is also an important reason why Du Mao wants to take the risk of ascending. Otherwise, he could just hide in the Wutong Cave and break through the landscape formations left and right, but
It is destined to be unable to break through the cave's restrictions.
After Du Mao failed to ascend, almost all the disciples of Tongye Sect went from being in awe and loving the ancestor of Zhongxing to being extremely resentful towards Du Mao. To describe him as unforgettable is not an exaggeration, and they regarded him as Tongye.
The sinner of the sect for thousands of years, the ancestor of the bullshit ZTE, the founder of ruin who squandered the ancestral foundation. As for Du Mao’s half-original intention, to throw himself into another big prison to find a way out for the Tongye Sect, very few people will
Thinking about this situation, including the purple-robed sword cultivator of Tongye Sect and the old monk of Yupu Realm who was in charge of the genealogy of the ancestral hall, for some unknown reason, these few people were very angry about the public sentiment in the sect.
Without deliberately suppressing, channeling, and opening up, Du Mao's lineage, such as his direct descendant Du Yan, not only lost the treatment of a Nascent Soul follower, but was also held accountable. The Du family's family fortune was almost turned upside down and used to hand over to the clan.
Door, fill the gap.
It's either this or that, it's either black or white.
Two ends of a ruler.
Especially when it comes to matters that involve one's own real interests, this seems to be human nature.
Chen Pingan hopes that if one day he really opens a sect in the future, he would rather no one thinks that Chen Pingan is a flawless moral saint from the beginning. In the end, if something happens that is irreversible,
, and no one will think that he is a great evil person with unforgivable sins. Even if people's hearts are separated, we should strive to have a good reunion and a good ending, and try our best to have a decent beginning and a good ending.
Chen Ping'an squatted on the ground, looked down at the ancient apricot charm, and asked with a smile: "I haven't discussed it with the immortal master here at Fengweidu, to serve as an enshrinement to the guest, to find a place in the Five Mountains, and to make a mountain alliance.
After the contract, there will be one more king of the Middle Five Realm Mountain who cannot escape, they should be happy to see it happen, right?"
The little guy sat down on the top of Qian Mountain, with a sad look on his face, and said in a childish voice: "I think so too, but those guys who smell like copper can trust me, but I can't trust them. This is a troublesome place, Beetail Ferry
Adjacent to the three kingdoms of Qingluan, Qingshan and Yunxiao, several forces in Dukou are intertwined. No one obeys anyone. For money, they secretly beat out each other's brains when there is nothing wrong. Mountain alliance oath, which country's five mountains do you think I should choose?
?Even if I am stupid and choose one family, the other two families still hate me to death? Maybe one day they will secretly find someone to chop my body into pieces and burn it as firewood? Now, although the incense is bleak, I will be hungry after a full meal.
Damn it, but I can’t die anyway. Don’t you Qi practitioners all say that it is better to live than to die? Well, there is also the saying that a dead Taoist friend will not die but a poor Taoist.”
Chen Ping'an pretended not to hear the last sentence, and took the little guy's worries seriously. As a helpless apricot tree spirit, if he wanted to break through, he needed to make a mountain alliance with a Qi practitioner, but Beetail Crossing
It is located at the border of the three realms and is not under the jurisdiction of any country, so this is really a big trouble. If Fengweidu was a dominant and powerful company, it would be okay.
Chen Pingan was helpless.
The little guy said pitifully: "I heard that little black girl said that the immortal master lives in a place like a cave, heaven and paradise, and absorbs spiritual energy like ordinary people drink water. You might as well help me and take this little sapling back. Once it survives, it can also help
Master Zhuxian stabilizes the spiritual energy of the landscape, which is a mutually beneficial good thing for both of us. Ordinary Qi practitioners will not mention the merchants who are greedy for money, but only the farmers and pharmacists. Who would not regard this as a blessing from heaven?
A good thing, you must cherish this passing immortal master!"
Chen Pingan put the soil and saplings on the ground and said with a smile: "Do you still want to say, 'If God doesn't take it, you will suffer the consequences'?"
The little guy was dejected, scratched his cheek and said: "The two younger ones are easy to fool, but the older one like you is experienced in the world and is really not easy to fool."
Once Chen Ping'an plants this small sapling on the hilltop of his home, the latter can help stabilize the spiritual energy of the landscape. It is not false, but it is extremely limited. More importantly, it will continue to steal the spiritual energy for the ancestral tree, so it is definitely a loss-making business that outweighs the gains.
Regarding the inside story about the charm of these trees, Chen Ping'an was on Osmanthus Island. Because there were old locust trees in his hometown town, he chatted with the Fan family's old sword and horse repairer, and learned some inside stories.
After Chen Ping'an returned the soil and saplings, Xinghua Jingmei was still a bit discerning and gave Pei Qian two snow coins.
Little Lotus Flower was very sick, Pei Qian was also ashamed, and both of them felt sorry for Chen Ping'an.
Chen Pingan put the lotus figure on his shoulder, held Pei Qian's hand, and laughed softly: "What are you feeling guilty about? It's the one you should be feeling guilty about."
Inside the "gate" at the bottom of the apricot tree, lying in the mountain of money, he yawned and said, "I have to wait for the next fool to take the bait."
It fell asleep in a daze, and had a sweet dream. It actually dreamed that it was growing into a towering tree on the top of a mountain that was growing and towering into the clouds. Every almond leaf was filled with golden aura.
Every branch was immersed in the golden incense, and it became the only flower and tree essence in Aquarius Continent of the Upper Five Realms... On the high branches on its body, there were two blurry people standing looking at the sea of clouds. One of them raised his head.
Drinking wine, one man has swords intertwined on his waist...
After the little guy woke up, he was extremely happy. Even if it was just in a dream, it would have been enough for him to be happy for many years. But for no reason, when he touched his face, his own face was filled with tears.
It was lying in the pile of money in a daze, puzzled and feeling a little lost.
————
The four people in the picture scroll each gained something with the Xiaoshu money worth a hundred snow coins. Zhu Lian, who was originally alone, had an extra package on his back when he left Old Dragon City. This time he left Beetail
After crossing, the package became heavier.
Zhu Lian now considered himself a scholar, so of course he went on a study tour.
The four of them walked to the capital of Qingluan Kingdom and crossed the surrounding three countries. The year before last, a huge water and land dojo was opened in Qingluan Kingdom. The Tang Emperor personally organized it. The next year, Yunxiao Kingdom and Qingshan Kingdom almost simultaneously
, they each held a Taoist Luotian Festival, just like fighting in an arena, dividing all the Taoist gods and gods, and catching the Qingluan Kingdom off guard. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not stop doing it, so he simply held a Taoist festival this spring.
In the debate between Buddhism and Taoism, one should choose between Taoism and Buddhism to become the state religion of Qingluan Kingdom, and its status would be higher than that of Confucianism. The one who loses will naturally be at the bottom.
Therefore, Chen Pingan believes that Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia will stay in the capital of Qingluan Kingdom at least this spring.
Probably because of its proximity to Fengwei Ferry and the many Taoist temples and scenic landscapes within its jurisdiction, Qingluan Kingdom, including the other three countries, does not belong to the kind of "lawless land" where spiritual energy is so thin that it is scarce.
In the Water Country, there is a lot more spiritual energy. At that time, I was a pure martial artist and didn’t have deep feelings. I only had a rough feeling. Now, after refining the water seal as my natal object, I can slowly absorb the spiritual energy. Comparing the two, I found that
understand the mystery within it.
Among the countries in the central Aquarius that Chen Ping'an has traveled through, Caiyi Country has slightly more aura.
Regarding the Caiyi Kingdom, the talisman that Chen Ping'an now has in his square-cunwu still lives in a white-bones ghost with whom he signed a contract.
It's just that Chen Ping'an didn't like her. After arriving on Osmanthus Island, he never let her leave the strange talisman as her shelter.
But when we get to Luopo Mountain and release her later, there will be a mountain god sitting there overlooking the surrounding mountains and rivers. I believe it will also be a shock to the female ghost.
The orthodox landscape gods of the Great Li Dynasty are not comparable to any other dynasty in Aquarius Continent. The Great Li gods are naturally one level higher. As it is now, in the future... half of the Aquarius Continent now belongs to the Song family of Great Li.
What is in the bag only needs the nod of approval from a certain Confucian school in the Middle Earth, so in the future, there will probably not be much difference between the gods of Great Li and the gods of Aquarius Continent.
When leaving the Fengwei Crossing border line, I found that travelers coming in from the outside, whether they are Qi practitioners or martial artists, need to hold a yellow paper talisman sold at the gate crossing. When they enter, a ripple gate will appear.
To let people pass, the talisman is a bit like the customs clearance document of the secular dynasty. This is something new. This is the first time Chen Pingan has seen it. Other ferries do not have this toll. You do not need the customs clearance talisman to leave Fengwei Ferry.
, after walking out of the gate, Chen Pingan went to ask the gatekeeper of the Five Realm Qi Practitioners and sincerely asked for advice. Seeing that Chen Pingan was in good spirits and walked out of Fengwei Ferry, the man smiled and answered Chen Pingan's doubts.
It turns out that there is a landscape formation in Fengweidu jointly built by the Yin Yang family and the mechanism master. The golden elixir and the earthly immortal can walk directly into it. Under the golden elixir, you need a customs clearance talisman worth five snow coins. Once it is forced
If you break in, you will alert the hunting people of Fengweidu. As for that talisman, it is a side branch of the barrier-breaking talisman. It was also the immortal master of Fengweidu who asked Fengweidu to tailor-make this formation.
When Chen Ping'an asked why there was no need for talismans to clear the way for other ferries, the Qi practitioner smiled playfully, stepped on the ground, and asked whose territory this was.
The direction of this gate is to the territory of Qingluan Kingdom. Chen Pingan naturally answered that it was the Qingluan Tang Family. Before the Qi Practitioner could explain in detail, Chen Pingan suddenly realized and sighed that the Emperor of the Tang Family was really good at making money.
The capital of Qingluan Kingdom is more than 1,600 miles away from Fengweidu, and there are still more than two months until the debate on Buddhism and Taoism that started during the Grain Rain season, so there is no harm in walking there.
Along the way, they saw large and small Taoist temples. None of them could talk about how they believed in Buddhism. They generally went into them because of their reputation. Chen Ping'an and Pei Qian both respectfully offered three sticks of incense.
It's just a courtesy to the gods. Wei Xian didn't believe in this and usually didn't go in, just waiting at the door. Zhu Lian didn't believe it either and just accompanied Chen Ping'an and Pei Qian for a walk. Lu Baixiang only went to the temple to burn incense and worship the Bodhisattva. He was very pious. Sui
On the right is a person who enters the temple and offers incense, which is also quite sincere.
Chen Ping'an had reminded Pei Qian that it was okay to burn incense, but not to make wishes casually, let alone kowtow to the Bodhisattvas and gods in the temple and make wishes one by one.
But he also told Pei Qian that if one day he feels something in his heart and really wants to make a wish, then he should take it seriously and remember the content of the wish, as well as which temple and deity the person offering incense and kneeling to worship is. Once the wish is fulfilled,
No matter how far away I am from now on, I will come back to fulfill my wish.
Seeing Chen Pingan's solemn expression, Pei Qian was so frightened that she didn't dare to make a wish at all, just to burn incense. Otherwise, when she thought of coming from Longquan County to Qingluan Country to fulfill her wish, she felt that she would either die of exhaustion or regret it on the way.
His intestines were bruised and he cried half to death.
Moreover, when going in to kowtow and burn incense, Chen Ping'an had a rule, saying that the money for "incense" cannot be borrowed from others, and she must pay for it herself.
Fortunately, along the way, Chen Ping'an asked Pei Qian to run errands several times. The skinny little girl got several coins. After converting them into copper coins, it was enough to pay incense at the Taoist temple.
Pei Qian didn't think that Chen Ping'an was stingy with these few copper coins.
She felt more and more that Chen Ping'an was much more generous to her, the founding disciple, than to Lao Wei and the other four.
This made Pei Qian very happy.
At the time of the Waking of Insects, in the wilderness of a small county in Qingluan Country, even though they were more than a hundred miles away, Chen Ping'an and his party felt the ground shaking and the mountains shaking. In the distance, dust was flying, covering the sky and the sun, and there was the outline of a figure.
The huge blurry monster seemed to be suffering great pain, roaring to the sky, and countless forest birds flapped their wings and flew away.
Chen Ping'an thought for a while and asked Wei Xian and Sui Zuoyi to rush to investigate and see if any innocent people were hurt.
He himself has not yet fully recovered from his injuries, and he has to weigh the compatibility of the water and fire between the aperture lake that stores spiritual energy and a mouthful of pure Qi. Although the martial arts realm that is the bottleneck of the Five Realms is still there, his real strength is only that of the Four Realms.
for the level.
Wei Xian holds the Manna Armor Huashan in his hand, and Sui carries the Chixin Sword on his back. They are both capable of offense and defense. Even if they encounter danger, it is not difficult for them to support each other and escape unscathed.
Chen Ping'an didn't deliberately speed up the pace. When Sui Youyou and Wei Xian returned, they said that there was the so-called Di Niu turning its back. A group of wild cultivators in the mountains and rivers somehow found this Di Niu that had been dormant here for hundreds of years.
I wanted to surround him and get the heavenly materials and earthly treasures from Di Niu's physical body. But I was stopped by two troublesome people, a young Taoist priest with a mahogany sword, and a bearded man with a knife. There was no discussion between the two parties.
When they gathered together, a big fight broke out. There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. One side was surrounded and killed, and it was bound to win. There was also a golden elixir monk who personally presided over the overall situation, and the outcome was no doubt in doubt.
Chen Pingan slapped the sword gourd and jumped up high. The flying swords first and fifteen flew out of the sword gourd. Chen Pingan just stepped on the flying sword step by step, rushing away like an immortal flying in the wind.
The four people in the picture scroll looked at each other.
Pei Qian was holding a hiking pole and looking left and right, what was going on?
Sui's right side flashed away.
Zhu Lian laughed loudly, then swept away, "It's great to have another fight!"
Wei Xian carried Pei Qian on his back.
Lu Baixiang followed silently.
It's a little strange why Chen Ping'an is so gloomy.
Is there an acquaintance there?
But Chen Ping'an, who came from the Lizhu Cave and lived in Muping Lane, even if he was an acquaintance, shouldn't he be the ninth-level warrior Zheng Dafeng, the ten-level grandmaster Li Er, the swordsman Cao Xi, and the heavenly king Xie Shi?
In Chen Pingan’s hometown, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a bit unreasonable.
Even if an old monster from the Ascension Realm suddenly appears one day, the four people in the painting, including Lu Baixiang, will not be too shocked. But if a "little character" from the Middle Fifth Realm suddenly appears and says that he is Chen Pingan's friend
, the four of them will not adapt.
Even though Chen Ping'an had two flying swords to help him, he was injured after all, and the pure energy was somewhat hindered, so his speed was still roughly the same as the group on the right of Sui on the ground.
In a huge mountain col with countless rubbles, a yellow ground cow was seriously injured and had to reveal its true form, lying in a pool of blood.
In front of it stood a embarrassed young Taoist priest and a bearded hero, back to back, surrounded by more than twenty Qi practitioners and a pack of wolves.
In front of everyone's eyes, a young man who came with the wind or a sword, dressed in white clothes, floated out of the dust like a true immortal.
I saw the white-clothed immortal master falling sharply and floating to the ground. After taking five or six steps with light steps, he walked up to the two people and raised his palms to them with a smile.
The young Taoist priest and the bearded swordsman were stunned, in disbelief. The young Taoist even rubbed his eyes, and then a smile spread in the Taoist priest's clear eyes.
The young Taoist priest and the big-bearded hero each stretched out a palm and gave the young immortal master a high-five. They no longer looked depressed at all. The two of them were in high spirits and were very happy.
Chen Pingan looked at the two of them. His eyes at this moment were probably brighter than Pei Qian, who had the sun and moon in his eyes. He held the hands of his two friends and laughed: "I knew it! I'm the only two in the world.
Only friends, Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia are willing to do such a thankless thing!"
