Sword of Coming

Tao Ran swallowed, gritted his teeth, and plucked up the courage to ask from the bottom of his heart: "Who are you really?"

Even Tao Jianxian didn't dare to call him by his first name, it was too shameful.

Chen Ping'an smiled and replied from the bottom of his heart: "I already said it last time when we were on the bank of the Ling River. If nothing else happens, it will be me. Tao Jianxian himself just doesn't believe it."

How can I believe it?

I randomly saw a young man on the way, wearing a pair of swords hanging from his waist, wearing a blue shirt and a long coat and cloth shoes. He claimed to be Chen Ping'an, so I stupidly believed him.

It's like a person from the horizon suddenly walking in front of you, or like a person in a book walking out of the book.

Today, Cui Dongshan, who is wearing white clothes and wearing a sword, extends his thumb towards Tao Ran from a distance. Mi Da Jianxian, who is beside him, is winking at Tao Jianxian.

It was about half a stick of incense before the auspicious moment of the opening ceremony. Chen Pingan walked forward quickly and exchanged a few words with the guests. Taking advantage of this opportunity, sword cultivator Tao Ran, who was confused in his mind, looked to his left. Looking to the right, he chose a place to stay. Finally, Chen Pingan took the hand of his nephew Zheng Yougan and stopped at a "small hilltop" at the edge. These will soon become the genealogy of Qingping Peak in Xiandu Mountain. It’s funny to say that monks, most of them still don’t know the true identity of the green-robed swordsman in front of them. They gathered together subconsciously after they came to the square, but they had nothing to talk to each other. When the square was crowded, After that, he obviously felt more cramped and reserved.

At this moment, Chen Pingan cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself formally. My surname is Chen and my first name is Pingan. I am a native of Longquan County, Dali, Aquarius Continent. I am the master of Luoluo Mountain. I am a Confucian scholar of the literary sage lineage. My husband is the former The Literary Saint who will soon be restored to the throne of the Confucian Temple, I am also the husband of Cui Dongshan, Pei Qian and Cao Qinglang."

This was also the first time that Chen Pingan revealed his identity as the master of the Shangzong Mountain and had a serious dialogue with them.

Chen Pingan touched the head of the child next to him and introduced with a smile: "Zheng Youqian is the founding disciple of Senior Brother Jun Qian and my nephew."

The group of people standing opposite Chen Pingan at this moment except Tao Ran, a golden elixir sword cultivator who was born in Tongyezhou Mountain Zeye Xiu.

There are also two earthly immortal ghost cultivators, a pair of Taoist companions who are proficient in formations, Wu Gou and Xiao Manying.

Three exiled monks from the old Yuzhigang Shuyi Tower were Lan Yi, Yu Xinglou and Fu Zhu.

His true identity is the subjugated prince of the old Zhu Ying Dynasty of Aquarius Continent, Shao Poxian, a sword cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm. As well as the maid Meng Long who followed him all over the country and had a long period of escape. She has now been renamed Dugu Mengyu, and Tongyezhou is about to welcome its second female monarch. For this pair of master and servant, Cui Dongshan had previously asked Xiao Mo to help with the deception. Next to the two of them, there was a female cultivator from Luzhou Dajiao Mountain in Beiju, Shi Qiu.

Chen Ping'an looked at Shi Qiu, who smiled and nodded slightly.

Chen Pingan once again clasped his fists and expressed his thanks: "Xiandu Mountain established the sect. From site selection to construction to today's celebration, in fact, every link was extremely rushed. In a short period of time, Xiandu Mountain was able to establish the sect." The peaks are of this scale, which is equivalent to building a ferry from flat ground, literally starting from scratch, you all have worked hard.”

Leaving aside Shao Poxian, the three old men of Luolu Mountain, Tao Ran, the sword cultivator who took over the shop by the Ling River, and Wu Gou, the ghost cultivator, and Lan Yi, the Yuzhi Gang Lan Yi, were all brought to Xiandu Mountain by Cui Dongshan himself. , so he can be regarded as the founder of the sect who followed Cui Dongshan. The two sides had previously mainly contributed to the Feng Yuan ferry and the construction of the ferry. One of the cross-continental ferries, Feng Yuan, was equivalent to a small sect on the mountain in terms of number of members and combat power.

On the ferry, Cui Dongshan carefully refined the talisman puppets and golden-armored warriors, numbering nearly a hundred, and they were named Yugong, Jinshi, Mountain Picker, Moyuer, etc. Whether they were skins or minds, they were related to each other. Real people are no different. Responsible for the daily maintenance of Feng Yuan Ferry and the geographical survey on the ferry route. The main responsibility of the latter is actually to "hunt for treasures and pick up leaks" in the mountains and rivers of Tongyezhou. Therefore, they were given a temporary official position by Cui Dongshan. , "Landscape Inspection", and Wu Gou and Xiao Manying, who are proficient in formations, are responsible for the daily operation of Feng Yuan Ferry.

Chen Ping'an and Shao Poxian said in their hearts: "I have seen the tiger Jin Qing. We will talk about your establishment of a country on the banks of the Ling River later."

Shao Poxian smiled and nodded in thanks.

Chen Pingan asked with a smile: "When will you reach the upper five realms?"

Shao Poxian's face was filled with sadness, "It's difficult."

In addition to these weird "landscape inspections", there are also more than two hundred talisman warriors and machine puppets whose ranks are far lower than those of rain workers and fishermen. There are as many as two hundred people who work as coolies. They were used to create immortals. They are all responsible for the Dushan Mansion and the ferry. The three monks who were born in Shuyi Tower in Yuzhigang were previously temporary governors of the ferry. The three of them are not very old, more than a hundred years old. They are not at a high level now. , two views of the sea and one cave.

In fact, the three of them were completely frightened before Chen Pingan arrived.

Because of the chatter among the many guests watching the ceremony, no one deliberately used their true feelings. For example, the young woman with her hair in a round bun was no stranger to her. We often met her at the ferry. We knew her name was Pei Qian, but how could she communicate with that woman? The famous female grandmaster "Zheng Qian" is hooked up? After Pei Qian and the man whom she respectfully called "Xu Jianxian" talked about the Jinjiazhou War and mentioned Cao Ci, Yu Xuanfu and others, Pei Qian also took the initiative to mention that she had once met an old man in purple. Immortal, the talisman is in Xuan! In this way, the identity of the man came to light. It was Xu Xie, the Great Sword Immortal of Jinjiazhou who was known as "Sword Immortal Xu Jun". This guest of the Liu family in Aaizhou, after crossing the continent to Tongyezhou, settled on the side of Qushan Ferry. According to the gossip reported in several Shanshui Residences, it was said that this was to prevent Yu Guizong from attacking the Liu family's ferries. As a result, the Jade Guizong specially sent the Ancestral Hall to worship Wang Ji to confront this "Sword Immortal Xu Jun" at Qushandu.

Coincidentally, Wang Ji also came today, and brought with him a child who looked to be less than ten years old, who turned out to be the new peak master of the Jade Guizong Jiuyi Peak.

Pushan Huang Yiyun.

She was selected as one of the top ten martial arts masters in the history of Tongye Continent, and she and Martial Saint Wu Shu are the only two remaining martial arts masters in Tongye Continent today.

And that old man turned out to be the grandfather of Yao Jinzhi, the current empress of the Daquan Dynasty and the head of the ten major dynasties in Tongye Continent, the old general Yao Zhen. Among the two people beside the old man, one is the Minister of Rites, and the young man with a limp leg and a broken arm is the Fu Yin of Daquan Mirage City.

In addition, there is also someone who claims to be a monk from Iron Tree Mountain in the Divine Continent of Middle-earth. There are also two Taoist priests from Paidi Peak in Luzhou, Beiju. Are they the descendants of the Fire Dragon Master? They may even be direct disciples?

They had told Master Cui in advance that they could ensure that the three notorious people, while retaining their identities as monks of the Yuzhi Gang Genealogy, could make a living in Xiandu Mountain, at least without wandering around outside and receiving so much glare. After all, the sect in Yuzhigang was destroyed because of open-door thieves. In the end, a big demon from the old throne, Qie Yun, took the lead in climbing the mountain and slaughtered them all. Especially the beautiful cultivators suffered a terrible end. But now, almost all the local cultivators in Tongye Continent have I feel that they, Yuzhigang, are to blame for themselves.

In fact, the three fellow students of Lan Yi are already satisfied with this. It is hard to say how grateful they are to Master Cui Xian, but it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that they are sincerely grateful to Xiandu Mountain. Even if Mr. Cui spoke directly and made his intention clear early on, what would it matter if he was interested in their secret craftsmanship of Shuyilou? They have a place to stay, and they can share the accounts and make money together, not to mention that Cui Xianshi will not ask them for the Shuyi Tower secret method of refining the talisman beauty.

Chen Ping'an didn't use his heartfelt words, and directly spoke to the three of them: "You just have to practice peacefully here in Xiandu Mountain. If you want to resume your old identity one day, wait until you feel that the time is right in all aspects, even if you take the initiative to ask for it. Without the genealogy of Xiandu Mountain, I can promise you on behalf of Cui Dongshan that there will be no obstruction from Xiandu Mountain to continue the inheritance of the incense of Shuyi Tower in Yuzhigang, or even rebuild Yuzhigang, and Xiandu Mountain will be a little thinner. In addition, if you are willing, on our side of Xiandu Mountain, you will see people's hearts over time and trust Cui Zongzhu and Xiandu Mountain. At that time, the two parties will officially become allies on the mountain. Before that, you can take the initiative to find people scattered in various places. For the Yuzhigang monks, Xiandu Mountain will use a peak as a temporary dojo to accommodate them."

Lan Yi and the three of them seemed to have received a huge reassurance, which was simply a huge unexpected surprise.

With them alone, they don't even have an Earth Immortal monk. In their lifetime, rebuilding Shuyi Tower is a great luxury, let alone renewing the incense of the entire Yuzhigang Patriarch Hall.

Cui Dongshan smiled knowingly. The gentleman obviously said it deliberately to everyone present.

Sir, you want to make your own conclusion about the destruction of Yuzhi Gang.

Probably in my opinion, if in troubled times, there is no room for a Yuzhigang who can be said to be dizzy, then in the future peaceful world, Tongyezhou will definitely be indispensable for a Yuzhigang.

Therefore, no matter how the entire Tongye Continent views the incident in Yuzhigang, from Aquarius Continent’s Luolu Mountain to Tongye Continent’s Qingping Sword Sect, they are willing to renew the reputation of Yuzhigang.

Cui Dongshan is full of energy.

That's good.

The more Mr. Tuo can do, the better.

I'm just afraid that my husband will completely become a hands-off shopkeeper. From now on, if he is not enthusiastic about Xiandu Mountain and will be indifferent, then I, as a proud student, will be very worried.

Cui Dongshan came to Tao Ran, bumped Tao Jianxian with his elbow, and said with a heartfelt smile: "Tao Jianxian, let me tell you a few things. First of all, Jiang Shangzhen is our sect on Xiandu Mountain, the chief minister of Luolu Mountain, but with I gave him a pseudonym named Zhou Fei. In our Luopo Mountain, Old Sect Leader Jiang has a good temper and a strong reputation. So if you become a member of the Ancestral Hall of Xiandu Mountain, it doesn’t matter if you scold him a few times. He can’t return the favor. Mouth. Surprise or not?"

Tao Ran grimaced and silently told himself that even "Chen Ping'an" was really Chen Ping'an. Whether or not to scold Jiang Shangzhen was a trivial matter.

"Then there's that Yu Mi who seems to be an eyesore to you, that's Mi Yu, the Mi Ban Yao of the Sword Qi Great Wall, is that surprising?"

Tao Ran cautiously glanced at Mi Yu with the corner of his eye. Tao Jianxian smiled awkwardly and subconsciously rubbed his waist, always feeling chilly.

In fact, everyone from Chen Ping'an to Xiao Mo to Mi Yu has been scolded by Tao Ran.

As the senior sister of Shuyilou, Lan Yi cried with joy and choked with sobs: "Why should Mr. Chen treat us three unknown people so favorably?"

Chen Ping'an gave his own answer, "I won't talk about the merits and demerits of that tragic accident, nor the established facts that made a big mistake. I will only say one thing. If there is no compassion, why open the door."

Chen Ping'an said: "The road is bumpy and the task is long. There will definitely be a lot of criticism during this process. You should be mentally prepared early."

Then Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Of course, if you give up this idea one day and feel that it is too difficult and try your best, you are still unable to do it. If you can't do it, you can't do it. We at Xiandu Mountain also welcome you. At that time, Qingpingfeng Ancestral Hall will arrange a special chair for one of you."

Lan Yi, Yu Xinglou, and Fu Zhu bowed to the two sect leaders Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan to express their gratitude.

The auspicious time has arrived.

Cao Qinglang took out the key and opened the door of Qingpingfeng Ancestral Hall.

Chen Ping'an and Cui Dongshan, both teachers and students, walked into the gate side by side, crossed the threshold, and took the lead in walking towards the main hall of the Patriarch's Hall in front.

As the ancestral mountain of Xiandu Mountain, there is only one scroll hanging in the Qingpingfeng Patriarch Hall.

Chen Ping'an, the founder of Shangzong and the master of Luolu Mountain.

He wears a green shirt with a sword on his back and a jade hairpin on his head.

Extremely expressive.

After all, Cui Dongshan still did not follow his husband's wishes and hung the three hanging portraits in the Jise Peak Patriarch Hall in the middle, and then hung his and Cui Dongshan's portraits at the extreme left and right positions respectively.

Today's celebration of the establishment of the lower sect in Xiandu Mountain is still the same as before. Like the previous sect of the upper sect in Luolu Mountain, there are no red tapes and it appears to be extremely simple and not complicated.

In the Patriarch Hall, there are two rows of chairs on each side, one on the left and one on the right.

As soon as you go to Zong, you will reach Luolu Mountain. The next sect, Xiandu Mountain, Qingping Sword Sect.

On one side are Chen Pingan, Chang Ming and Wei Wenlong. Pei Qian, Zhou Mili, Xiaomo, Jia Sheng, Zhang Jiazhen.

The back seat, Nalan Jade Certificate, Bai Xuan, Sun Chun Wang, Chai Wu.

Twelve people in total.

On the other side is Cuidong Mountain, the Immortal Realm. Mi Yu, a sword cultivator in the Immortal Realm. Cui Wei, Yuanying realm sword cultivator. Zhong Qiu, a martial artist at the peak of the Far Traveling Realm. On the right side of Sui, Yuanying realm sword cultivator. Cao Qinglang, a golden elixir monk. Tao Ran is a sword cultivator in the Golden Core realm.

In the back row is Shao Poxian, a Yuanying realm sword cultivator. Meng Long, Shi Qiu. Jiang went. On the way back, Cheng Chaolu, how could he be wrong? Wu Gou and Xiao Manying are two earthly immortal ghost cultivators. Lan Yi, Yu Xinglou, Fu Zhu.

Nineteen people in total.

The upper and lower sects have a total of thirty-one members.

Behind the two rows of chairs on the left and right sides, there are seats for the guests watching the ceremony. One group is from Tongyezhou natives, behind Cui Dongshan, and the other group is from outsiders, on Chen Pingan's side.

In Yao Town of Daquan Dynasty, Yao Xianzhi, the governor, and Li Xiling, minister of the Ministry of Rites. Huang Ting, the lord of Taiping Mountain, protects the mountain and worships it at Fushan. Pushan Thatched Cottage, the owner of the mountain is Ye Yunyun, the palms are Tan Rong and Xue Huai.

Zhang Fenggu, the ancestor of Yugui Sect, worships Wang Ji, Qiu Zhi, the master of Jiuyi Peak, Wei Gusu, Wei Xianyou, and Jiang Heng of Yunku Blessed Land. Qiu Du, Hu Chuling. Zhong Kui, Yu Jin. Zhenyao Tower Qingtong.

The surnames of the Great Celestial Master Liang Shuang and Ma Xuanhui were born outside Longhu Mountain. Paidi Peak refers to Xuanfeng Yuan Lingdian and Zhang Shanfeng. Taihui Sword Sect, the leader Liu Jinglong, has a white head on the peak. As expected, Tieshu Mountain talks about Yingzhou. Zheng Yougan. Xu Xie, the Great Sword Immortal of Jinjiazhou. Liu Jubao in Aaizhou, Liu Youzhou. The Mysterious Dynasty of the Divine Continent of Middle Earth, Yu Panshui.

Two groups of guests attended the ceremony, totaling thirty-five people.

The seating arrangement for the ceremony on both sides is also very interesting, because there is no arrangement at all, everyone can just sit wherever they want.

Last time at Jise Peak in Luolu Mountain, Chen Nuanshu and Zhou Mili were responsible for handing out incense.

This time Qingpingfeng was replaced by Cao Qinglang and Zhou Mili, each holding an incense stick.

During the last celebration of the founding of the sect in Luopo Mountain, incense was offered in the Jise Peak Ancestral Hall. Forty-three Jise Peak Ancestral Hall genealogists were in the front, and thirty-six people watching the ceremony were behind.

In this incense ceremony of the Lower Sect, except for Chen Pingan, who is the ancestor of the Shangzong and does not need to offer incense, he is dressed in a green shirt and just stands at the head of the left side.

After everyone offered incense one by one, they each found chairs to sit down.

Zhong Kui could clearly feel Chen Pingan's embarrassment.

It’s not good to be too young and promising.

The feeling of being stuck there alone, and then being offered incense by the Great Celestial Master of the Longhu Mountain, the God of Wealth of the Liu family, and Yu Panshui, is probably not something outsiders can appreciate.

Fatty Yu Jin felt helpless and always felt that he had suffered a big loss. But when he thought that Zhong Kui had to fight with Chen Ping'an to get back 50% of his family wealth for himself, he couldn't bear it.

Zhang Shanfeng was also holding back his laughter.

Qingtong thought it was quite interesting.

After that, Cui Dongshan took Cao Qinglang and Zhou Mili, the right protector of Luolu Mountain, to first unveil the two plaques on the mountain gate and the ancestor hall in accordance with the agreed rules on the mountain.

Qingping Sword Sect.

At the foot of Qingping Peak, one had to set up a ladder and hang up the couplets presented by Wu Shuangjiang.

Then he returned to the Patriarch Hall.

If it weren't for Xiandu Mountain's intention to keep everything simple, there would be a highly respected monk who would hold a position similar to a roll-call officer, responsible for reciting aloud some of the sect's founders, heads of the Immortal Mansion and dynasty monarchs who could not be present in person. various congratulatory messages. In general, the grand ceremony of establishing a sect in the world, because of the foundation of the sect and the strong connections from all walks of life, this part alone may often take half an hour or even longer, because the congratulatory messages often amount to more than a hundred pieces. .

Skipping this link, Cui Dongshan began to introduce everyone present step by step, starting with Shang Zong Luo Luo Shan, then Qing Ping Sword Clan Genealogy Monk, and finally the guests watching the ceremony.

Next, Changming, the leader of Luolu Mountain, announced the members of the Qingping Sword Sect’s Ancestral Hall.

Chen Pingan. Cui Dongshan, the first sect leader, Cui Wei, the ancestor of the law, and Mi Yu, the chief worshiper, were in charge of the financial affairs of the sect. On the right side of Sui Dynasty, there are Cao Qinglang, Tao Ran, Wu Gou and Xiao Manying.

Later, Cui Dongshan, as the leader of the Qingping Sword Sect, officially invited Huang Ting of Taipingshan to serve as the chief guest. Pushan Ye Yunyun and Daquan Yao Xianzhi are guest guests.

Then invite Qing Tong and Qiu Du, who are both named worshipers of the Qingping Sword Sect, and Cao Jun, a swordsman who was unable to attend the meeting today, to serve as the last worshipper. The three of them are equivalent to being replacement members of the Qingpingfeng Ancestral Master Hall.

The guests' viewing of the ceremony is now over.

After that, the Qingping Sword Sect’s first Ancestral Hall meeting will begin.

The members include Chen Ping'an, Chang Ming, Wei Wenlong, Pei Qian, Zhou Mili, Xiaomo and Jia Sheng.

Cui Dongshan, Mi Yu, Cui Wei, Zhong Qiu, Sui Youyou, Cao Qinglang. Tao Ran, Wu Gou, Xiao Manying, Qiu Du.

In addition, there are five seats in the Patriarch's Hall: Zengzong, Keqing, Qingtong, and Qiudu. Huang Ting, Ye Yunyun, Yao Xianzhi.

Chen Ping'an personally escorted the spectators out of the Ancestral Hall. Except for a few who stayed in the square, they all began to return to various mansions in Mixue Peak.

Without rushing back to the Patriarch Hall, Chen Pingan came to Liu Jubao and Yu Panshui who were staying on the top of the mountain and said with a smile: "What a neglect."

Liu Jubao smiled and joked: "You don't have to say hello to hundreds of people you know or don't know. You just have to be a free person from beginning to end. It's such a relaxed and comfortable viewing experience. I hope to participate more times."

Yu Panshui glanced at the ferry and said with a smile: "Master Yin Guan, is the Feng Yuan ferry not bad?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "One more would be even better."

Yu Panshui became anxious and complained: "I don't pick the fat ones, I only pick the thin ones. How can there be such a business experience in the world?"

Cui Dongshan jumped up and hugged Yu Panshui's neck, pulling him so hard that the latter had to bow his head and said, "Fat Yu, who is fatter if you are not fat?"

Liu Jubao coughed lightly, and someone was finally willing to look away from somewhere, and hurriedly greeted Lord Yinguan with a smile.

Chen Ping'an looked at Liu Youzhou, nodded and smiled: "I haven't seen Osmanthus Island for many years, and I miss it very much."

Both parties were still teenagers back then.

Qingping Peak of Xiandu Mountain towers into the clouds. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, you can see the sea of ​​clouds billowing in your field of vision.

Wearing a green shirt, above the white clouds, all the scenery falls into his eyes.

————

In the Xuandu Temple, a fat man who seems to gain weight every season, with a Guanli Peach Talisman personally given by the old temple master hanging on his waist, can ignore those things that are enough to make an Ascension Realm monk break the wall. Due to the mysterious restriction, Yan Zhuo found Taoist Master Sun's dojo, which was a famous "Guan Nei Guan". He gently knocked on the red door of the main hall and asked tentatively: "Old master, are you in retreat? Are you busy?"

An impatient voice came from the room, "If you have something to say, get out of here."

Yan Zhuo rubbed his hands outside the door and said: "On the way here, I met an outsider who did not wear a Taoist robe or a Taoist crown. Instead, he wore a hairpin with flowers. The old temple master helped to palm the eyes? What if the other person's character If you are good at it, you might be able to make a lot of big deals and make huge profits!"

Yan Zhuo had just gone out for a trip. He called it an outing for training, but it was actually a tour of the various branches and vassal hills of Xuandu Temple.

Yan Zhuo didn't feel much about the ancestral temple in Xuandu Temple before. Anyway, he would see the old temple owner in the peach grove every now and then. He would sit on two benches in the stream and have a drink together. As for the seven or eight generation difference between the two parties, Taoist Sun did not pay attention to it, and Yan Zhuo was not polite. Taoist Sun did not take it seriously and followed the example. Those high-level masters were even more polite to Yan Zhuo. In addition, Xuanduguan is a Taoist Sword Immortal. Pulse, Taoist officials often carried swords or carried swords, which naturally gave Yan Zhuo an illusion.

It seems like I'm still in my hometown, still at the Great Wall of Sword Qi.

There is no need to worry about seniority, realm, etc.

As a result, when Yan Zhuo really left Xuandu Temple and went to the vast mountains and rivers outside, he realized that the Duli Taoist priests who came from the ancestral family of Xuandu Temple were very famous when they were away from home. Those Taoist disciples and great-great-grandsons from all over the world. The Lord Protector of the Country has spread his branches all over Qizhou. When he saw this young fat man, Yan Zhuo did not need to use the prepared rhetoric, but he was extremely polite to this young fat man from his ancestral home. polite.

In fact, Yan Zhuo misunderstood. Not all Taoist officials who came out of Xuandu Temple were treated in this way. Those Taoist immortals were really curious about what the relationship between this fat man and the old temple master was, so they all used He looked at the relatively unfamiliar Jian Xiu named Yan with a playful look that said, "Did the old patron find an illegitimate child outside and bring him home?"

After all, there are not many Taoist priests from Xuandu Temple who dare to take advantage of that peach forest.

The old temple master has always adhered to a certain purpose. Since he has accepted disciples and does not teach them himself, should he let them go outside and let outsiders teach him the principles of life?

Coupled with the unique and distinctive style of the old temple master, the entire Xuandu Temple is unique in the world of Qing Ming. It can go sideways outside the boundaries of Baiyu Jing.

As for Yan Zhuo's true identity, Xuanduguan, as the ancestral court of all lineages, has not publicized it to the outside world and deliberately concealed the matter. If the old temple master doesn't mention this, who would dare to leak the news to the outside world.

Therefore, even in the Xuandu Temple today, there are no more than ten Taoist officials who know that Yan Zhuo comes from the Great Wall of Sword Qi, including Han Zhanran, the "concierge" of the Taoist temple with the Taoist name "Chunhui".

Anyway, Xuandu Guan never lacks stories and conversation topics.

Daochang Sun sneered: "Is that the crazy guy who likes to pretend to be an aunt?"

I heard that this guy wandered all the way to the border of Qizhou before stopping. He was such a jerk, but the senior sister came running over as soon as she came out of the border.

However, the other party still knew some rules and did not directly enter the realm of Xuandu Guan. After all, Xuandu Guan and the hilltop where he was were not very good at dealing with each other. This guy was probably worried about being trapped in a sack.

As for the so-called business that Fatty Yan talks about, it is not about harming the peach forest.

Yan Zhuo's smile, which he had deceived into a fool at first, gradually solidified.

After a moment of silence, Yan Zhuo jumped to his feet and said angrily: "Is he a liar? He is really a rebel. He dared to deceive and trick him into the door of our Xuandu Temple. I will call Sister Zhanran and ask for justice from him!"

It turned out that the other party threatened that he could help sell the peach branch pens, peach charm cards, peach leaf bookmarks and other items carefully made by Yan Zhuo to Yongzhou, which was not bordering Qizhou. He was guaranteed to make a lot of money, and the two parties would split the accounts 30-70. As long as Yan Xianguan nods, he can wait to collect the money.

In addition, don’t Xuandu Temple still have baskets of peaches every year? Anyway, there are them every year. You Taoist officials in Xuandu Temple can’t finish them. You don’t charge for giving away, so why waste it? Yongzhou’s large and small fairy mansions, There are so many Taoist temples, and there are celebrations every day. If there is a celebration, we need dustpans and baskets of fruits and vegetables from the Xian family. How can Xuandu Guanxian Peach, which is famous in the entire Qingming world, worry about sales?

Yan Zhuo thought it was feasible. No matter how courageous the other party was and how high his backing was, he wouldn't dare to deceive us, Xuandu Guan, right?

"How did he register his number with you?"

"This guy calls himself Qing Ling. He has no name, no Taoist name or anything like that. He says he has just been around the world for a long time. He has many friends in the Taoist community, and they are all willing to give him some thin noodles..."

Hearing this, the old spectator in the room sneered, this is a gangster, and he has many friends.

"I asked him what his realm was, and he told me honestly that he was in the Immortal Realm. He came from the top of a mountain in Yongzhou and was very prestigious in his sect. Moreover, I saw that he had three followers with him, and they all seemed to be from land. Immortal, probably because he was afraid that I would not believe it, this Daoist fellow Qingling also took the initiative to ask for an iron flute that he carried with him as a deposit, but I did not dare to accept it. He reported a mailing address, and it is estimated that at this time, Still waiting for news from me.”

Daochang Sun smiled and hesitated whether to inform his senior sister about this person.

This place is actually the Ancestral Hall of Xuandu Temple, the root place of all the branches and leaves of the Taoist Sword Immortal lineage in the world.

There are as many as forty or fifty portraits of the Taoist ancestors of the past dynasties hanging in the main hall.

For Tianxia sects and Taoist temples outside Bai Yujing, the matter of hanging statues also depends on their respective backgrounds. Some are Jindan Taoist priests. After death, the statues can occupy a place in the ancestral hall and enjoy incense, but For a behemoth like Xuandu Temple, one needs to start as a Jade Pu Realm monk.

Just because he, as a contemporary temple master, has a high level of Taoism, has lived long enough, and has been living in a manhole for too many years, the "ancestors" on many hanging statues are actually lower in seniority than Sun Huaizhong.

The hanging statues in the Patriarch's Hall are arranged according to seniority, from high to low, and ultimately resemble a pagoda.

On a higher place on the wall, there are three hanging portraits. They are blank and two are side by side. They belong to the future viewer Sun Huaizhong and senior sister Wang Sun respectively.

It's like a kind of "empty position", which is not so strange in the world of Qing Ming. This is the same as in the market, old people are not taboo about talking about life and death, and will prepare coffins for themselves early when they are alive.

The more blank statues hanging in the Immortal Mansion Patriarch Hall on a mountain naturally means the more living ancestors of this sect.

The door of the Patriarch's Hall opened slowly. Taoist Master Sun stepped across the threshold and walked out of the hall. He stroked his beard and squinted his eyes, "He is here to find the senior sister of Pindao. He is looking for business with you. He is just a helper and treats you as a stepping stone."

When opening the door, Fatty Yan lowered his head and did not look at the scene in the hall. After closing the door, Yan Zhuo raised his head again and asked a very pragmatic question, "Master, can you tell me the truth? I will tell him Can a partnership really make a lot of money?"

Daochang Sun nodded and said: "Yes."

Yan Zhuo felt relieved when he heard this, "As long as he is not a liar, it is always a good thing to get to know more of such an expert and become familiar with him."

Sun Daochang said with a smile: "This Long Xinpu doesn't like to stay in the mountains and practice hard. He likes to go to the rivers and lakes to stir up trouble. As time goes by, he is respectfully called 'Dragon Master' by those with shallow eyes. It's just that he is different from Lin Jiangxian." Compared to that 'Master Lin', the gold content is far behind. Anyway, Long Xinpu is thick-skinned, even if there is someone who is not afraid of death and is willing to call him Dragon Master, he will still dare to accept it."

The old Taoist priest whose pseudonym is Qing Ling, whose real name is Long Xinpu, is an old patriarch of the Bingjie Mountain in Yongzhou. If calculated by seniority, he is still the supreme ancestor of the current mountain owner.

Bingjie Mountain is one of the top mountains in Yongzhou. As the only remaining "old man of his generation" who has made great achievements in Bingjie Mountain, he claims to have prestige in the sect, but he is a bit humble outside. It is indeed not bragging and not drafting.

However, the atmosphere in Bingjie Mountain is rather strange. The monks are not very old. There is a saying of "a calamity that lasts for a thousand years", and the older you are, the better you are at fighting.

Because the monks there are not long-lived enough, this person's seniority actually takes a big advantage. Otherwise, in sects such as Xuandu Temple and Caishuishan, there is a temple master and the patriarch of the sect. Don't you want to scare people to death?

After all, if you can live for five or six thousand years, how low can your realm be?

Long Xinpu, a soldier from Bingjie Mountain, is from the same hometown as his senior sister, and they both come from a small place in Yongzhou.

But when it comes to realm, cultivation qualifications, and fighting ability, they are all far behind his senior sister.

This guy was wandering around. He didn't starve to death or be beaten to death. He just relied on his mouth. The three times he fell into trouble were all caused by his poor mouth.

Yan Zhuo asked out of curiosity: "Is this senior coming for the temple master's senior sister? Is there any hint here?"

Daochang Sun glared and said, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

If you kid talks nonsense with your big mouth, and with the temper of senior sister, you won't care about anything with a junior like you, then what senior sister will deal with later will be a poor Taoist.

When I was young, it was nothing, but now I am the master of the world. I have to save my face every day and cover half of my face with my hands when I go out. It is outrageous.

Taoist Sun led him out of this forbidden temple and asked casually: "How do you feel after going out?"

Yan Zhuo said with great emotion: "It's so majestic and popular wherever I go. It's so good. It's not in vain that I have a unique eye and have fallen in love with the Xuandu Temple of the old temple master early. In this matter, Dong Heitan Not as good as me."

In fact, this must be attributed to the recommendation of the young hermit official. Otherwise, Fatty Yan, who is full of copper odor, may not have much room for display of his eighteen martial arts skills on the road of making money in the strict rules of Bai Yujing. .

Lin Jiangxian's Yashan, with its status in Ruzhou, relies on its strength of numbers, and is a martial arts sect strongly supported by the Chijin Dynasty. Yashan's direct martial arts master, of course, can go sideways in the mountains and rivers of that continent.

And Xuandu Guan is well-deserved to be the leader in Qizhou...

Unlike Yinzhou, the two Jingshan and Dachao sects have been hostile to each other since ancient times. Of course, things are different now. The two families have become one family, and they are a family in the literal sense. Most of the marriages between sects on the mountain are made by disciples who look at each other and then get married. How can two heads of the same sect become Taoist couples? This is indeed the first time in the world of Qing Ming.

There is also a collection mountain in Zhuzhou, which competes with Qingci Palace, one of the ancestral palaces of Taoist Fulu.

Even in Youzhou, there is a Shoushan Pavilion that can compete with the Huayang Palace in Difei Mountain.

It's hard to say who is the dominant one.

In Yongzhou, there are Xianzhang Sect and Bingjieshan, two top sects, Xianfu, who are always competing for the position of leader of the state.

Of course, Bai Yujing is the master of the entire Qingming world. Even Xuandu Guan is still far behind compared to him.

It can even be said that all the sects in the Qingming world are Bai Yujing's "outer sect" vassals.

Yan Zhuo asked: "Old Temple Master, can I do business with him?"

Daochang Sun hummed, "It's up to you, it's just money and business, there are no taboos here."

What's more, the old grudge between Xuanduguan and Bingjieshan, in Sun Huaizhong's opinion, is not a deadlock, but that the contemporary owner of Bingjieshan is stubborn and refuses to come out.

Daochang Sun asked: "Do you really like making money that much?"

Yan Zhuo smiled and said, "I really like it. I have liked it since I was a child. Besides, besides practicing sword practice, I have to find something to do to distract myself."

Daochang Sun nodded, "Very good."

If there is a chance, through this transaction, the relationship between the two parties can be eased. In the future, Yan Zhuo will be recommended as the accountant and deacon of the Xuandu Guanzu Court. At least he will have something to say.

To avoid being accused of nepotism, Xuandu Temple has no shortage of Taoist priests for the time being.

Daochang Sun said: "Go and call Di Yuanfeng and Zhan Qing, and go out with Pindao to relax."

Yan Zhuo nodded and agreed, and then went to call the two lucky people who had a deep fate.

Yan Zhuo asked tentatively: "Shall I fly my sword first to send a message to the old soldier from Bingjieshan?"

Daochang Sun shook his head and said, "No need."

The last time Daochang Sun left his body and traveled far away, he once again traveled around the vast world. Finally, he accepted two direct disciples in Luzhou, Beiju, and brought them back to Xuandu Monastery.

It was just a personal transmission in name only, and he gave them a few Taoist books and a few immortal tactics. In fact, it was an upper-level Taoist official like "Concierge" Han Zhanran who actually taught Shuang the swordsmanship and Taoist tactics.

According to Taoist Sun, there is a shortcoming in being a master when teaching people. He can teach geniuses but not fools.

How dare those two young foreigners from Luzhou, the northern capital of the world, have any complaints.

I just feel that being able to establish a relationship with an unshakable fifth person in the world, even if it is just a master and apprentice in name only, is already a great blessing. I really don't dare to expect more.

Moreover, as long as you are a Taoist priest who observes the ancestral veins in Xuandu, you can practice with peace of mind. At least no one has to worry about being bullied outside.

The old temple master Sun's arms are like a towering ancient tree, blocking out wind and rain and protecting all Taoist priests. Everyone can escape the summer heat and enjoy the coolness in the shade of the tree, and they only need to concentrate on cultivating Taoism.

Yan Zhuo went to find Di Yuanfeng and Zhan Qing and said that your master had issued a decree and asked us to accompany his old man to go out to relax. Comparing people to each other is irritating. As the direct descendants of the old temple master, these two people have an extremely high seniority in Xuandu Temple, and they are able to make an exception to practice in Taolin. When Di Yuanfeng saw Fatty Yan, they didn't dare to look down upon him. Without saying a word, they immediately followed Yan Zhuo to see their master.

Back then, at the ruins of an immortal mansion in Luzhou, Beiju, their hometown, Di Yuanfeng and Zhan Qing experienced firsthand how "unhuman" someone acted.

No wonder he can be called "fellow Taoist Chen" by his master.

But when they later learned that the other party turned out to be the last hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall, they each began to rejoice in their "remaining life" and that they were a blessing in disguise, and they began to cherish the stable years of cultivation now more and more.

Yan Zhuo smiled and said: "When Chen Ping'an comes to Xuandu Temple in the future, the three of you are just reunited as old friends, why don't you have a good drink? Do you have any ideas about this drink? I can help you prepare several jars of immortals in advance. The price of homemade wine is easy to talk about, and the original price is guaranteed!”

Di Yuanfeng didn't answer.

But Zhan Qing smiled and said: "This is so good, Brother Laoyan should have taken more trouble."

In fact, his first encounter with Di Yuanfeng and the others was also the first time Chen Pingan had the courage after accidentally entering the Lotus Flower Blessed Land, and took the initiative to imitate the monks on the mountain and enter the secret realm of mountains and rivers to search for ways to visit immortals and pursue opportunities.

If you only look at the results, Chen Pingan has certainly gained a lot, but the dangerous process is indeed frightening. In addition, Chen Ping'an has unknowingly inherited a very important cause and effect. In the small Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, there is a peach wood statue of a Taoist priest with a middle-aged face. This person's true identity is the junior disciple of Taoist Master Sun of Xuandu Temple. He was taught by Bai Yujing Er. Yu Dou wore robes and carried an immortal sword. The person who personally asked and asked the Xuandu Temple about the sword and died under the sword of Zhen Invincible was this Xuandu Temple Taoist official.

And this person's direct disciple Song Maolu was a Taoist priest who was known as "the youth is better than the master".

According to what Huolong Zhenren said at Tianfu Water Island in the Dragon Palace Xiaodong, this Taoist priest who was the nephew of Master Lao Guan by seniority once used Yongzhou as his base camp and gathered nearly 60% of the Taoist sects outside Bai Yujing. This statement, of course, has a certain degree of moisture. Because the top handful of sects and immortal mansions in the world did not truly form an alliance with Song Maolu back then. There may be a contract in private, but at least on the surface, there is no alliance with Yongzhou. But even so, it is shocking enough. Just like the metaphor used by Master Huolong at that time, in our vast world, it is like there is a person , can compete with half of Confucianism, and compete with the Chinese Confucian Temple.

The mahogany statue of Song Maolu's master, Taoist priest Sun's younger brother, the Ascension Realm old Taoist priest, is now the key to the wooden house, one of Chen Ping'an's Five Elements natal objects.

Except for Di Yuanfeng and Zhan Qing, being taken into the sleeves of the old temple master is like a chicken and dog ascending to the sky, turning into a rainbow, and flying to the underworld. In fact, Liu Guibao, the female nun of Caique Mansion, almost became the old temple master. His personal disciple.

Yan Zhuo said with curiosity on his face: "When will we, brothers, have a drink and tell me about that trip that year and how we met Chen Ping'an."

Because of Chen Ping'an's relationship, Yan Zhuo was particularly close to them.

As for what these two people think, Fatty Yan doesn't care.

Zhan Qing agreed with a smile and said that of course it would be no problem, while Di Yuanfeng felt helpless. He really didn't want to talk about that old and cunning "good man Chen" who made money at the risk of his own life.

Di Yuanfeng, whose family was in decline at that time, wore an ancestral sword hanging on his waist. He once worshiped a family who was a border military general and learned some sword skills. He once used the identity of Qin Juyuan of Jiayou Kingdom. Of course, he was framed and blamed by the latter. Along the way, he met "Daozhang Sun", Master Huang and others, and several unpopular Shanze wild cultivators. They worked together to make money and went to the secret realm of the Immortal Mansion. Di Yuanfang tied his head to his belt and went there. I will fight for my life to become rich and noble. On the other hand, Zhan Qing, as the young Marquis of Beiting Kingdom, was a well-known romantic and fickle lover. He used to wear bamboo sticks, mango shoes, and a mutton-fat jade flute at his waist. He acted like a noble prince, carrying the hidden A bamboo stick with a soft sword, and a beautiful woman by his side, it's just like going on a sightseeing tour.

As for why the old temple masters are willing to accept them as disciples and bring them back to the Qingming world, Zhan Qing and Di Yuanfeng are still confused. They became Taoist officials in a daze. When walking in Xuandu Temple, they will be inexplicably attracted by those An old master in the upper five realms is called Master Uncle, Master Uncle, or even Master Uncle or Master Uncle. He was even called Taishang Uncle or Master Uncle with great respect.

It's just that the relationship between two fellow students is actually average now. In the final analysis, the two sides have never been the same.

Different paths, of course, they just think so.

Zhan Qing asked cautiously: "Brother Yan, as a foreigner, how did that Lord Yin Guan first get a foothold on the Sword Qi Great Wall?"

Yan Zhuo thought about it seriously, then laughed and said, "Treat others with sincerity!"

When Fatty Yan went to call someone, Daochang Sun found his senior sister Wang Sun and asked tentatively: "Long Xinpu from Bingjie Mountain came to the door. Do you want to see him?"

The girl-like Nv Guan said with an indifferent expression: "If the other party is doing it under the guise of reminiscing about old times with fellow villagers, no need to meet him. If you think he is here to discuss things with us in Xuandu, and it is more important, you are the observer anyway. Lord, it doesn’t matter from my side.”

Daochang Sun asked: "What should we do if the other party has both?"

Wang Sun said: "Of course, business matters are more important than private matters. It doesn't hurt to meet."

Taoist Master Sun was relieved, silent for a moment, and sighed for no reason, "Senior sister, our master is a man who has a good fortune in his later years."

As the master of Taoist Priest Sun and his senior sister Wang Sun, the old Taoist priest named "Qingyuan" died at the end of his life and died without any illness. The few apprentices are all promising. If they leave a few hundred years later, they may be worried.

Wang Sun nodded and said, "It's a good thing Master can leave. Otherwise, if he had lived a few more years, he would have been pissed to death by the rest of us."

Even when it comes to talking about Master, Wang Sun still has no taboos in speaking.

Daochang Sun said with a smile: "None of you were willing to take over the position of Master and succeed the Master. I have always doubted that Master chose me back then. Did you, Senior Sister, secretly say something to Master? "

"If there is no evidence, stop talking nonsense."

Wang Sun sat under the peach tree, stretched out his hand to hold down a sheathed sword, and lectured: "There are no juniors, big or small."

Taoist priest Sun laughed dumbly.

At that time, Xuandu Temple was appointed as the temple master, "Qingyuan" Taoist Priest, and a group of children who were led by the old master to practice in Xuandu Temple at the same time. There were as many as seven people. After that, the old master never received any direct descendants. .

There were only seven children, but it turned out that among them were only Ascension Realm monks, and later there were three!

In addition to Wang Sun who had just "come out", Sun Huaizhong, the current visitor, and the younger brother from both sides who likes to hold a hiking stick and travel around with a book in hand. His hometown is from a small place rich in loquats. He was born in poverty and his name was Huang Gan. Later he said No. "Qingli".

Three fellow disciples, Sun Huaizhong, senior sister Wang Sun, and junior brother Huang Gan, all reached the Ascension Realm one after another, and also served as the abbot of Xuandu Temple, the first one, and all spoke.

Therefore, the year when he took up the post of temple master and finally accepted disciples was regarded by later generations as a "big year" with the most abundant harvest in the history of Xuandu temple.

Even if it is placed in the pages of the thick old yellow calendar in the entire Qingming world, it is destined to be a rich and colorful one.

That's why the old scholar brought a child with a tiger head hat to visit Xuandu Temple last time. He made a special trip to the Patriarch's Hall to offer three sticks of incense to the incoming temple leader.

The people on the hanging statue and the pilgrims outside the hanging statue are both good at recruiting disciples.

In addition, the old scholar's closed disciple and the young disciple who became the temple master also have a close relationship.

This is very kind.

The incoming temple master of Xuandu Temple, Yuan He, was named "Qingyuan". The first time the old Taoist priest formally taught and taught the disciples, he threw a Tao ancestor's book to those children, which was only 5,000 words long.

But Wang Sun just read the opening six words of "Tao can be Tao but is not Tao", and she closed the book.

At that time, he was just an old Taoist priest who served as one of the three capitals in Xuanduguan. He nodded and smiled.

Let her play.

The little girl, who was still wearing braids at that time, jumped out of the house and went to play alone.

Only the fellow disciples, including Sun Huaizhong, were left, all staring at each other in astonishment.

Sun Huaizhong later asked his senior sister what was going on.

The senior sister's explanation at that time was that I didn't know how to read, so why did Master throw me a book?

Sun Huaizhong really believed it, he was young and ignorant, he was young and ignorant.

Indeed, the hometown is that of senior sister Wang Sun from Yongzhou. Her family has been snake catchers for generations and has never been able to read or write. It is not surprising.

On the other hand, most of Sun Huaizhong's group of practitioners are from good backgrounds. Not to mention literate, they have memorized a lot of books on various branches of Taoism. For example, Huang Gan, the younger junior brother who was first recognized as having the best Taoist qualifications, was less than ten years old and had already read it by heart. The whole Tao is hidden.

It was many years later that Sun Huaizhong learned the truth. It turned out that the senior sister just thought that her junior brother "Xiao Sun", whom she had just met for a short time, was a cultivator despite his young age. It was pitiful that he could ask such an idiotic question. , she just found a lame excuse to comfort him.

Anyway, in those years, every time the senior sister saw Sun Huaizhong, her eyes were particularly "kind" and she never had a cold face. She probably treated him like a little fool who needed her pity.

From then on, Wangsun's cultivation path was extremely smooth, and his breakthrough was a matter of great momentum.

He was completely crushing his peers, even if he was riding Juechen, he could only watch the rising figure of the king and grandson from a distance.

Over time, all the Taoist priests of the Hui generation in Xuandu have accepted their fate. If it is obvious that they are incomparable, then they will not compete with Wang Sun.

When discussing Taoism and principles, no one would look for that king or grandson.

Wang and Sun first crushed their peers, then caught up with their masters, and then the two generations above the emblem, among whom there were many amazing monastic geniuses. However, they were all surpassed by Wang and Sun one by one.

Later generations' evaluation of Wang Sun's "general horn hearing" is no joke.

As the junior disciple Huang Gan whose cultivation qualifications are second only to Wang Sun's, before entering Xuandu Temple, he had the prophecy of "becoming an immortal", but he was the slowest in cultivation.

As for Sun Huaizhong, during those carefree years of practicing Taoism, he thought he was not outstanding even if he was not good enough or not good enough. Now that his senior sister Wang Sun is here, there is no point in being a genius or not. As for what he later said He is a late bloomer and has accumulated a lot of experience, but it sounds like some curse words.

In the ancestral court of Xuandu Guan, after the Taoist priests of the generation of Bo Hui grew up, Xuandu Guan, as the leader of the lineage of Taoist swordsmen in the world, was actually a famous "mountain" in Qizhou. "Mountain", lives in seclusion and practices Taoism, is not stained by the world of mortals, and has very little contact with the outside world.

When the Taoist officials of the Hui generation began to grow into the backbone of Xuandu Temple and occupied important positions in the Taoist temple, the originally quiet and noble style of Xuandu sect changed, becoming more sharp-edged and more involved in the world.

Often, there were fellow disciples who suffered losses outside. Wang Sun waved his hand, and dozens of monks of the same age secretly traveled far away together with the seniors behind their backs. Every time, Sun Huaizhong took the lead, with junior brother Huang Gan as the strategist, and senior sister Wang Sun Ci. She is responsible for dealing with those who are at a high level and cleaning up the mess. For example, after returning to the Taoist temple, she was the one who argued with the elders of the disciples. After being trained, she had to face the wall and think about her mistakes. Every time she was in a group. , were banned in Taolin together, this is called sharing the same hardships.

After Sun Huaizhong stood out from the Hui generation and unexpectedly became the abbot of Xuandu Temple, for thousands of years, with Sun Guanzhu's acquiescence and even secret encouragement, the Taoist priests of the Xuandu Temple Sword Immortal lineage liked and were the best at it. The "one-on-one" style of martial arts has been carried forward to its peak. The dozens of exquisite sword formations that Xuandu watched are spectacular. How did they come about? Of course they came from being surrounded and beaten one after another.

As for Taoist Master Sun, who has grown from a young grandson, to a young temple master, and then to an old temple master, those bad habits... to put it in a more reasonable way, they are some fine traditions that are known to everyone on the mountain and down the mountain. Follow senior sister Wang Sunyi to come here.

For example, you should hit someone as early as possible.

————

Qingping Sword Sect, the first meeting of the Ancestral Master Hall.

There is a coffee table next to the chair, with a bowl of tea and a plate of melon seeds placed on it.

From the looks of it, it is estimated that it will become some kind of rule for discussions in the Ancestral Hall in the future.

Cao Qinglang and Pei Qian were responsible for carrying the pot and pouring tea, and Xiao Mili was responsible for dividing the melon seeds.

The little girl in black looked particularly serious. How could she get the total number of melon seeds in each plate? She had to make sure that every melon seed was accurate!

She stayed with Pei Qian last night. She had practiced this for a long time, but she still felt that it was not safe enough. At most, the error would be within two or three melon seeds. She was anxious, so Pei Qian came up with a perfect way for her. She took out When picking melon seeds, if there is an error, Pei Qian will look at the millet grains. If there are two seeds missing, there will be a signal of two seeds missing, and if there is one missing grain, there will be a reminder of one missing. Haha, perfect!

Chen Ping'an took the lead in cracking the melon seeds, and the good mountain master quickly figured out the clue. Well, very good, there were three more than the others. Sure enough, the millet grains were still very much towards him.

Jia Sheng was the most upright person. The old immortal thought that he had no part in the first meeting of the ancestral hall when the sect was established. He never thought that Master Chen was still so nostalgic, and Master Cui really still respected his master so much.

Qiu Du is not much better than Jia Lao Shenxian.

In fact, besides Jia Sheng and the old woman, Yao Xianzhi was the most awkward one. Back then, he and Mr. Chen were half-joking about asking for the status of guest guest of the next sect. There is a fixed seat in Qingpingfeng Ancestral Hall.

As for Tao Jianxian, of course he didn't doze off either.

"Everyone is more casual. It's not just 'just' family chatting behind closed doors. That's what it is."

Chen Ping'an picked up the tea bowl, paused for a moment, seemed to be inspired by it, and said with a smile: "I must admit that we have a very upright atmosphere when we go up the mountain and down the sect, and everyone has contributed."

Cui Dongshan blinked, glanced sideways at Pei Qian, and signaled to the senior sister, are you embarrassed to compete with the master for such a credit?

Pei Qian ignored the big white goose and just motioned to Cao Qinglang beside him with his eyes, please say something.

Cao Qinglang was indifferent.

Sui twitched the corner of his mouth on the right side but didn't say anything.

Accountant Wei and Mr. Zhong looked at each other, with a tacit understanding, and began to drink tea with their heads down.

Just millet grains, gently shaking the dangling feet, nodding vigorously, raising both hands, and applauding silently.

Xiao Mo felt that her time with the young master was still short and she could not afford this evaluation.

A little coldly, Chen Pingan originally planned to say the next sentence. Since everyone here is silent, it is the acquiescence. Very good, let's start the discussion.

Fortunately, God Jia had a sincere look on his face and was the first to break the silence, saying in a deep voice: "It's necessary!"

So Cui Dongshan, Pei Qian, and Cao Qinglang all looked at Old Immortal Jia blankly.

Chen Pingan stood up suddenly.

At the gate of Qingping Peak, a woman in a red cotton-padded jacket with flying eyebrows appeared out of thin air, with a wine gourd hanging on her waist. She held the horse with one hand, beckoned and shouted: "Uncle Junior!"
