Shao Baojuan smiled and said: "The autumn wind on the Wei River will take the bait to those who wish."
Chen Pingan asked: "So this is Liyang Road?"
Shao Baojuan nodded and said: "Good knowledge, remember all this."
Even those in later generations who devote themselves to Buddhism will often not pay too much attention to an insignificant place name if they carefully read Buddhist koans.
Chen Ping'an suddenly understood. Li County also has an area under its jurisdiction called Mengxi. No wonder Collator Shen would come here to hang out. It seems that he is a frequent visitor to the bookstore that specializes in official records. Collector Shen is probably similar to Shao Baojuan. , they are not locals in Toutiao City. They just have the advantage of being behind the scenes and taking advantage of the opportunity. Therefore, they prefer to pick up missing items everywhere. Like the Shao Baojuan, it seems that in a few blinks of an eye, you can find several treasures, and there must be other treasures in other cities. There is another opportunity, waiting for City Lord Shao to rely on "stones from other mountains can attack jade" to obtain them one by one and put them into his pocket. Shao Baojuan and Shen Xiaokan, the opportunity magic weapon they obtained in Toutiao City today, whether it is The book edited by Shen is still the same precious sword "Xiao Mei", as well as a bag of green and a length of rope, all of which are genuine.
As for the skinny old Taoist priest's eager gaze, Chen Pingan didn't care much. It wasn't like that ghost valley in the Skeleton Beach back then, so he was doomed to have no choice but to escape but not to fight. Chen Pingan's only worry at the moment was still the fear that a single move would affect his whole body. For example, The bearded man next to the fortune-telling stall, especially this Shao Baojuan, didn't know how many tricks he had hidden waiting for him.
This is like a Middle-earth sword cultivator who travels to the Great Wall of Sword Qi. Facing himself who has already served as a hidden official, the disparity between victory and defeat does not depend on his level of realm, but on the right time and place.
The monk who originally planned to buy cakes and snacks obviously also saw Chen Pingan. The monk stopped talking to the old woman and picked up the "Qinglong Shuchao" with every word written in his own handwriting again. He asked: "Look. You are also from your hometown in the north. Are you going south to meet those people on the soles of your feet?"
Shao Baojuan showed no expression, but was slightly surprised in his heart. The monk actually evaluated this person as "a native of his hometown in the north" when he first met him. You must know that Shao Baojuan read very miscellaneous books and was most familiar with all kinds of allusions in his life. He had previously As the lord of a city, I was able to travel around the cities easily, so I picked the right opportunity and came to this city many times to wait, follow, and ask the monks. Even if I copied dozens of Ji Feng clearly recorded by later generations, I always stayed there. The monk had nothing to gain. So Shao Baojuan's mind suddenly changed and he immediately began to think about it again.
Chen Pingan put his hands together and saluted the monk who was later known as "Zhou Jingang", but he shook his head, hesitated, caught a glimpse of the hiking sticks in the hands of Pei Qian and Xiao Mili, and smiled with the monk: " It’s better to owe sixty sticks first.”
According to the historical records of the world, the monks would stop at Longtan, burn the load of personally written scriptures, and say "Don't doubt the tongue of the old monks in the world", and even the shocking Jie Mao Mountain top, shouting at Buddha and ancestors. , and there is also the Zen koan of thirty sticks, which means that the way can be achieved and the way can not be achieved.
Over there at the bookstore, the old shopkeeper leaned against the door, watching the excitement from a distance.
Not many of these foreigners came to Toutiao City first after boarding the ship. Most of them disembarked in Caisuan City or Benmo City and settled down. And year after year, the locals saw more headless flies scurrying around, like this one today. The green-robed swordsman was so careful in his words and deeds, as if he was fully prepared and came prepared, which was really rare. As for Shao Baojuan, who had deep blessings, he was the most exceptional one. The shopkeeper slightly averted his eyes and glanced at the weapon. Shop, that Du Xiucai was also standing at the door, holding a bowl of sour plum soup from Benmo City in one hand, and nibbling a piece of Tongling white ginger on the other hand, looking very leisurely. It seems that Mr. Wusong has learned from Shao Baojuan, the lord of Rongmao City. , filled in the complete content of the "Hua Qi Xun Ren Calligraphy", then Du Xiucai will soon be able to use this calligraphy to go to the useful city also known as Baiyan City in exchange for an opportunity that he has longed for. On the ferry, In each city, a word, a thing, and an object have always been going around like this. It is indeed hard to come by and even harder to obtain.
The shopkeeper was a little strange. The look in Du Xiucai's eyes seemed to have rested on the sword carried by the man in green shirt many times. Could it be that he was an old friend? It was absolutely impossible, that young man was not the right age.
What's strange is that before Du Xiucai boarded the ship, he was once one of the best mountain refiners in the world. He blasted red lightning and raised purple smoke, which was very majestic. It is said that the Tongling Mountain near his hometown was refined by him.
Most of them. Even those long swords with the rank of semi-immortal soldiers are rarely able to catch the eye of Du Xiucai. And because of Du Xiucai's pioneering forging, a huge joke was made about this, which was all over the city.
According to the record in one of the absurd chapters, there was once a Xuyi Water God's Mansion next to Du Xiucai's hometown. The shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the river were known as "the most powerful in the world." As a result, Mr. Wu Song was forced to practice.
After boiling half of it, the water house suffered so much that he had to go to the temple to complain and complain. Is the long sword carried by the stranger a relic of an immortal who was known to Du Xiucai in his early years?
The monk on the street was a little confused, but he still clasped his hands and bowed in return. Then before moving away with the burden, Leng Buding and Chen Ping'an asked: "Coming out of the Yi Xue Li Cave, Niezi has a scholarly air?"
Chen Pingan could only remain speechless. The monk shook his head and carried his burden out of the city. Just when he was about to pass by Chen Pingan, he suddenly stopped, turned to look at Chen Pingan, and asked: "Why can all eyes detect the smallest details?
Can’t you see it clearly?”
Chen Ping'an replied: "As long as the Zen lamp shines, the dragon elephants in ten directions will open their eyes and burn through the dark roads through the ages."
The monk frowned slightly.
Chen Pingan asked back: "Who will light the lamp? How to light the lamp?"
The monk laughed and said: "Good answer. My son, my son, I am not that southern man with soles."
Chen Pingan was about to speak but stopped. Zen Buddhism in the world can be divided into North and South, but in Chen Pingan's view, there is no superiority between the two sides. He always believed that Dun Jian was the same sect.
But the monk had already carried the burden and walked away. As if in the blink of an eye, his figure had disappeared on the other side of the city gate.
Shao Baojuan spoke from his heart and kindly reminded: "Opportunities are hard to find and easy to lose. You should strike while the iron is hot."
Chen Pingan remained silent.
Shao Baojuan smiled and said, "I have no intention of plotting against you. It's just Yin Guan who overthinks it."
Chen Ping'an narrowed his eyes and asked: "Why, City Lord Shao is so bold and wants to collect Deshan sticks, Linji drinks, Yunmen cakes, and Zhaozhou tea?"
Shao Baojuan said helplessly: "I was a little greedy before, but now I've been blocked by Yin Guan and taken away sixty sticks, not even the thirty sticks. Naturally, it's absolutely impossible."
Shao Baojuan suddenly smiled and asked: "Then let's treat it as evenly matched? From now on, you and I will not be in conflict with each other. Each of us will find his own opportunity?"
Chen Ping'an did not comment, but just smiled and said: "What kind of city lord is Lord Shao? Since the well water does not interfere with the river water, you must let me know where the well water and the river water are."
Shao Baojuan smiled and said: "Here and now, there is no knowledge that can be obtained without spending money. Why should a hidden official ask questions knowingly?"
Chen Ping'an has actually seen a general clue. On the ferry, at least in Toutiao City and Nabenmo City, one person's knowledge and knowledge, such as Shen Xiaokan knowing the truth about the formation of the peaks, Shao Baojuan filling in the blanks for the copybook.
, fill in the content, once it is verified as correct by "someone" on the ferry, you can win a big or small opportunity. However, what is the price? It is most likely to leave a ray of soul on this ferry.
On the road, he became the kind of "living god" that Pei Qian saw in ancient books, and was trapped in the prison of certain characters. If Chen Pingan did not guess this context wrongly, then as long as he is careful enough and learns from the city lord Shao Baojuan,
If you go from house to house and only do certain things and say certain words, then it stands to reason that the later you board this ferry, the easier it is to make a profit. But the problem is that this ferry is not well-known in the world and is too obscure.
, it is easy to get caught up in the problem, and one careless move will lead to the whole game being lost.
As for why Chen Ping'an was able to remind Pei Qian and Xiao Mili not to answer as soon as they saw "Tiaoyu City", it was also because when he and Lu Tai traveled to Tongye Island, Lu Tai accidentally mentioned a ferry and joked about it.
Generally speaking, I asked Chen Ping'an what was the most difficult thing to deal with in the world. Later, when Chen Ping'an went to the Great Wall of Sword Qi again, during his free time, he checked the secret files of the Summer Palace, and he actually found a record about the ferry at his feet.
When I was studying, I went from house to house. In the narration at the end of a book called "Zhenzhu Ship", I saw a record about night sailing. Because there is a mountain in my hometown called Zhenzhu Mountain, and Chen Ping'an was very fond of Zhenzhu Ship.
I wrote a variety of content, and I was very interested in it, so I didn’t read it briefly like many books, but carefully read it from beginning to end to the last page, so I could see the sentence, "There is a pearl ship in front, a night sailing ship behind, learn the sea
Boundless, a small boat, with its seams and seams mended, carries people on a night journey between heaven and earth for eternity."
Next to the words, there was another line of words written crookedly. Chen Pingan could tell whose handwriting it was at a glance, "Fuck you, beat it to pieces with two punches."
That's why Chen Ping'an said unintentionally on the horsewalk at the top of the city: "Of all the knowledge in the world, night sailing is the most difficult to deal with."
When Chen Ping'an returned to Haoran Tianxia, he accidentally bumped into Mirage City and found the book seal from Huanghua Temple that Fei Ran had deliberately left with Liu Mao. After seeing those seals, he knew the two books on the book.
In one sentence, it was probably a boring comment made by Xiao Xun, the former hermit official of Jianqi Great Wall, to Hai Zhoumi, the former criminal official.
As for why City Lord Shao was so out of his mind to target himself, as long as Chen Ping'an found a few basic clues about this night ship, he could naturally follow the local customs, follow the clues, and have a good sword fight with Shao Baojuan.
Pei Qian was not worried about the city lord Shao Baojuan. Anyway, the master was watching. Pei Qian paid more attention to the thin old Taoist. He glanced at the pole with the words "If you want to get the secret of immortality, go to this immortal altar first."
"The crooked banner, and then looked at the formation on the ground in front of the stall, Pei Qian took off the basket behind his back, put it on the ground, and let the millet grains stand in it again. Pei Qian pointed the hiking stick in his hand to the ground and circled
The basket drew a circle on the ground, and with a gentle poke, the hiking pole was like a knife cutting tofu, and it penetrated more than an inch into the ground. A hiking pole stood on the ground, and after Pei Qian let go, several silk threads were entangled, as if there was a sword energy lingering, together with the golden thunder pool
, like a pocket sword array, guarding the basket.
Pei Qian shook his sleeve gently, and quietly held a bamboo yellow paper knife in his right hand, which was a gift from Yu Panshui. Pei Qian touched his hand again, and the paper knife returned to his sleeve, but there was an extra one in his left hand.
The extremely heavy iron rod, with a slightly bent body, showed the white ape's back sword technique, twisting the wrist lightly, drawing a circle with the long stick, and tapping the last end lightly on the ground, ripples appeared in waves, and there were countless water patterns on the street.
Waves spread out layer by layer.
At the Leigong Temple in Mahu Prefecture in Aaizhou, Pei Qian split a half-immortal iron spear given by Yu Xuan into three parts, and broke the sharp-edged spear points at both ends, eventually turning it into a pair of swords.
A stick.
The bearded man glanced at Pei Qian, who was using a staff as a sword and drawing talismans, and nodded slightly, not hiding his admiration.
What the old Taoist priest saw in his eyes was different from that of his neighbor with the beard. He said in wonder: "Little girl, you look young. She doesn't have a few magic skills, but her hands and feet are very strong. Who are you talking about?"
Did he learn boxing and kicking skills? Could it be Wang Fuxu, a descendant of Naju Luzhou, or someone from Tongyezhou?
Wu Shu? I heard that the scenery below the mountain is very beautiful, and there are many martial arts styles. Each mountain is higher than the other, but it is a pity that a woman has to fight for it first. Do you and that woman have any connection in martial arts? "
Pei Qian said: "If the old immortal wants to discuss Taoism with my master, he might as well ask a few punches from the junior first."
The man squatting on the ground smiled a little, "It's true that Fengjun is an old immortal, but it's a pity that his fists and kicks are not very good. If you ask for boxing, even if you go to Fengjun's territory, the old immortal will still lose. The little girl is very
clever."
The old Taoist turned around, jumped up and cursed: "In the Dianjing City where Mrs. Kongtong lives, there is a guy who looks at himself in the mirror every day and yells, 'Who is going to cut off my good head and neck?' Who are you telling this to? You have the nerve to say that.
Are you a poor man? Are your one hundred thousand soldiers used to make a living? Don't forget, it was a poor man who spread beans and cut paper to become a general. He helped you gather more than ten thousand soldiers and horses to get the one hundred thousand.
Countless, heartless things..."
The man, who had a beard as bare as a beard, simply sat on the ground and said with a smile, "I'll give you a piece of my mind as well."
Pei Qian immediately said in his heart: "Master, it seems that these people have "unique" means. This kind of lord's territory and the bird lifting the mountain, as well as this kind-hearted bearded 100,000 armored soldiers, I guess they can all be able to make their own way in this city.
From a small world.”
Chen Ping'an replied from the bottom of his heart: "This prince, if it is true that the Taoist sect of the 'Qingniu Taoist' is really high, and the Taoist temple is indeed the Bird Ju Mountain, then the old immortal is quite old. Let's wait and see what happens."
The old Taoist priest became more and more angry as he spoke. He kicked the bottles and cans on the cotton stall and knocked them all over. "Pindao asked you to turn your elbows outward to help foreigners bully the people in your hometown. After Pindao closes the stall, you must go and fight with them."
The city lord will sue you."
The man grabbed a corner of the cotton cloth, moved it as far away from the fortune-telling stall as possible, and said helplessly: "Why are you arguing with me? Have you found the wrong person?"
Only then did Feng Jun remember to look at the foreigner in the green shirt with a sword on his back again, and asked: "The man wearing a sword on the street is either a bald donkey or a Taoist priest, or is he?! Just tell the poor Taoist! As long as you are a kid
Tell the truth!"
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "The Taoist teachings may be flawless, but if there are Taoist priests on the street worried about leaks, why should I be blamed?"
The old Taoist stamped his feet and laughed angrily, "Good fellow, now Confucian scholars are getting more and more powerful in their reasoning."
Shao Baojuan suddenly interjected, "The Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, so whether it is perfect or incomplete, it is just a promise in words, but not necessarily in the heart."
Chen Pingan asked: "City Lord Shao, are you not done yet?"
In an instant.
Chen Pingan found himself in a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
There were no streets around the city anymore. There was only an old Taoist priest riding a green ox on the mountain road. He was carrying a bag across his body and a row of bamboo tubes. The sound of knocking against each other was clear and sweet, and he came towards Chen Ping'an on the road.
Chen Ping'an looked at the green ox, feeling dazed for a moment, and was stunned for a long time, because if he remembered correctly, when Zhao Yao left Lizhu Cave, he was riding a wooden ox cart. The young man in Qingshirt,
It was pulled by a green ox. It is said that there was a dull-looking driver at the time. Chen Pingan remembered something again. The cavalry commander holding a long halberd in the city had said something very unreasonable: "You are not allowed to fly up."
Is it possible that the Qingniu Taoist priest in front of me can achieve an ethereal and false realm in a different cave world with the weird posture of a living god?
On the street, Shao Baojuan smiled knowingly. There were so many weird things on the ferry. No matter how cautious you Chen Ping'an was, no matter how careful you were, the ship would capsize in the gutter here.
If it weren't for Shao Baojuan's Taoist aptitude and extraordinary talent, he would have become a living god here, let alone become the lord of a city. There are probably three people in the world who are most blessed here, and one of them is Na Beijulu
There is only one remaining Fire Dragon Master from Liuxia Continent, and it is very likely that he will have a mysterious and mysterious dispute with Shao Baojuan, the "Dream Tourist" from Liuxia Continent.
On the Entry City side, it was only a moment later.
As if Chen Ping'an stepped out of the threshold in one step, his figure reappeared in Entry City, but the long sword "Yeyou" behind his back was nowhere to be found.
At the same time, the fortune-telling stall and the Qingniu Taoist priest also disappeared out of thin air.
Pei Qian looked calm and didn't even ask any more questions.
Chen Pingan still comforted softly: "It's okay."
Shao Baojuan smiled and said goodbye, clasping his fists.
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "See you later."
A young girl came over. She smiled sweetly at Shao Baojuan and said, "City Lord Shao, are you leaving now?"
Shao Baojuan smiled and said, "Next time I go to the city, I'll go visit your husband."
The scholar just took one step out, ignored the city's restrictions, shrank down to the mountains and rivers, and left Toutiao City in an instant. It can be said that he returned with a full load.
The girl then gave Chen Ping'an a blessing, "My master said, let the sword fairy write the next chapter "Sexual Evil", and then you can get out of the city. If you make a mistake in a word, ask the sword fairy to bear the consequences."
."
Chen Ping'an smiled and asked: "May I ask who your master is?"
The girl smiled and replied: "My master, the current Lord of Entry City, was once known as Li Julang in the hometown of Sword Immortal."
At the same time, as soon as Shao Baojuan left, someone came from behind. He was a young man. He bowed to Chen Pingan and said, "My city lord is working on creating a seal. The first seal is the 'Jiu Xian Poem Buddha, Sword Tong'
Eternal, there are still dozens of seals left, and I need your help to fill them in."
