Sword of Coming

The Yao family behaved in a sophisticated manner. There were people waiting for Chen Ping'an at the post house, including Zhu Lian, and the young scout Yao Xianzhi shamelessly stayed behind.

Chen Ping'an apologized to the two veterans of the Yao family, and they laughed. One of them quickly waved his hand and said that Mr. Chen was so polite and treated himself too much as an outsider, so he couldn't help it.

The way Yao Xianzhi looked at Chen Pingan was like looking at a meritorious military general returning triumphantly from the battlefield, which made Chen Pingan a little confused.

A group of people rode horses to catch up with the large team. Pei Qian and Chen Pingan rode on the same horse. The little girl was very happy. The old general Yao Zhen had already slowed down the carriages and horses, so Chen Pingan soon saw the team.

After this period of recuperation, Yao Zhen received another elixir from His Royal Highness. His injuries from the assassin were almost healed. Today, the horse's hooves slowed down as he traveled north. After obtaining Yao Jinzhi's consent, he left the carriage and started riding. After all, he is an old man who has been fighting on horseback for most of his life. When he was young, he was accustomed to long-distance marches. Even if he slept on the horse, he would not fall. Today, he and Chen Pingan were kept pace with each other. The scenery along the way was pleasant and there were little benefactors. Chatting with him and talking about the scene of the temple buried in the river, Yao Zhen was in great spirits and laughed heartily.

Chen Ping'an wanted to ask the old general to help him get a map of the Burial River Basin from the government, but Yao Zhen agreed without asking.

Pei Qian had already rushed to Chen Ping'an's carriage, and was once again in the same room with Sui Zuoyou. The latter was sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, with a sword across his knees and a stern demeanor.

Pei Qian has always disliked this cold woman. Everyone she met seemed to owe her dozens of taels of silver. She showed off her stinky face all day long. Be careful, she would become an old woman next year.

Before entering the carriage, Pei Qian asked Chen Ping'an to get back the small-script writing brush and rice paper. Now he was sitting in the corner, opening the cotton package by himself, carefully putting his new belongings into it, and pulling out a seriously wrinkled book from the bottom. She glanced at a pair of boots inside the package and saw that they were new and covered with mud. She stuck out her tongue and quickly put away the package, not daring to be seen.

Lying back, Pei Qian held the worn and old book high in his hands, turned it over and over for a long time, and finally put it on his face and fell asleep.

Before falling asleep, the little girl thought about the guy's words, asking her to really study hard in the future and not just use her strength to memorize. She thought for a while, she was too tired today, let's talk about it tomorrow, and she will definitely do it tomorrow. Just when she thought of the saying, "Tomorrow comes tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows," she was so happy that she almost laughed out loud.

So the little girl slept particularly soundly today.

Sui opened her narrow peach blossom eyes on the right side and let out a breath. She quickly raised her palm and smashed the energy with a gentle flick.

The four people in the picture scroll, except Wei Xian who was the first to walk out of the prison of the picture scroll, the other three all came to this vast world in one day.

Zhu Lian followed a path of extreme martial arts, and only after reaching the pinnacle of martial arts, did he turn from the outside to the inside. Otherwise, this martial arts madman who was killed by Ding Ying himself would not want to kill the other nine great masters by himself. Grandmaster. The most terrifying thing about Zhu Lian in that tragic battle was that the more seriously he was injured, the more powerful his attacks became. Although Ding Ying was lucky enough to survive to the end and got the lotus crown on Zhu Lian's head, this man Ding Ying, who is known as the best person in the history, has never mentioned the battle of the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom to anyone in his life. Maybe there is a lot of mystery in it.

Lu Baixiang was extremely talented and could learn everything quickly and accurately, so he was able to embrace all kinds of martial arts along the way. This was roughly the same as Ding Ying, the first person in the Ouhua Blessed Land in later generations. It's just that Lu Baixiang's ambition, or ambition, is not as crazy and pure as Ding Ying. Therefore, after he founded the Demon Cult, he was still a loner and liked to travel around, so he was trapped in a tight siege. It was just that he participated in a bloody battle. The righteous master who was encircled and suppressed and suffered a huge decline in his realm, deep down in his heart, did have a little admiration for Lu Baixiang. As for the one thing that was destined not to stay in the world, it was that the two people who fought the most to the death in that battle were both fairies from a famous family who admired Lu Baixiang. They probably wanted to die for their love.

Wei Xian's martial arts is the rarest. He is born to fight against thousands of people on the battlefield. He is good at dealing with siege situations. One person can build an array, even if there are thousands of people, he can attack. Historically, there is almost no record of any fights between the founding emperor of the Nanyuan Kingdom and his unofficial history and anecdotes.

As for Sui Youyou, both in terms of aptitude and character, she is actually more like a Taoist who is famous in the world, rather than a pure martial artist who longs for some "end".

Although Sui Youyou has been in a remote place recently, what she really sees is still not the human world, but the heaven.

She is now trying a deviant swordsmanship. In the Ouhua Blessed Land with thin spiritual energy, she can only be a loft in the sky, but in the vast world, she has great potential.

The current step is somewhat similar to a warrior's "reclamation", but she is different. She is fanning the flames between her waist and ribs, making a self-made sword furnace, warming up a breath of sword energy, imitating a pure warrior's breath of true energy, swimming like a fire dragon, and patrolling all directions. .

Once Sui Youyou succeeds, he will not only refine his body and spirit, but also refine a ray of sword energy into a sword embryo, which is almost the prototype of the sword cultivator's natal flying sword.

As for everything about sword cultivation, Sui Youyou has no chance to come into contact with it now. It can be imagined that Sui Youyou's talent in sword training is very high.

These days, she has only heard some private discussions among the Yao family's frontier troops. It is precisely the feats of the assassins of the Yao family's benefactor Chen Ping'an. Among them, there are mentions of the swordsman's style, the fierce and huge killing power, and the ghost of the flying sword god. She longed for it.

This is great. The Lotus Flower Blessed Land is too small to hold her sword. This world is big enough. One day, she must go to the highest place to draw her sword!

Sui continued to close his eyes on the right side.

She would never lose to anyone in practice, and her opponents were never Wei Xian and the others.

There are horseshoes outside the carriage. The Daquan Dynasty is at its peak of prosperity. Many children from the countryside will stop and watch along the way. The villagers and couples are not afraid, they only have curiosity in their eyes.

Chen Ping'an rode on horseback and looked at the people of Daquan.

Back then, when I was passing through the border with a boy in green and a girl in pink skirt, I met an elite frontier scout from Da Li Yibiao. He was well-trained and extremely capable. After reading his customs clearance document, I laughed and said It is suggested that they go to Fengsui to stay and avoid the wind and snow.

Chen Ping'an didn't have a good impression of Emperor Da Li, the vassal king Song Changjing, and his neighbor Song Ji Xin, but it was precisely because of that chance encounter that Chen Pingan had no prejudice against the Da Li dynasty.

At dusk that day, the team stayed at a large post house near the city. The post house was extremely elegant, and there was also a small garden with green bamboos.

That night, Yao Zhen personally sent Chen Pingan a map of the world. Chen Pingan was carefully studying the jade slip in the room. Pei Qian was yawning across the table with a pagoda demon-suppressing talisman on his forehead. The reason was that she heard It is said that there are often female ghosts in bamboo forests. When the wind blows and rustles, I always feel that there will be female ghosts floating around in the bamboo forest. After Yao Zhen knocked on the door, Pei Qian immediately ran to open the door. The old general saw the little girl with the talisman on her forehead. When asked why, he laughed and said that there was no need to be afraid. Even if there was something sneaky hiding in the bamboo forest, the Yao family was born in the military Erlang, all of them are full of yang evil spirits. It is only ghosts who are afraid of them.

Pei Qian said oh, took off the talisman and put it on the table, then went to sleep in his room.

Yao suppressed his hand and motioned for Chen Pingan to sit down and talk.

The two sat down, and Chen Ping'an naturally wanted to express his thanks. The government had a clear plan, and the imperial court had always strictly prohibited items from flowing into the private sector. It was more strictly controlled than weapons such as bows and crossbows.

Yao Zhen smiled and said: "It's not a big deal. The local governor agreed readily. Once you become an official in the border area, you don't need to pay too much attention to this kind of thing. Don't think you owe me a big favor. Having said that, , when Governor Liu saw me at first, he was very embarrassed and had no choice. He had an in-law who worked in the Yamen of the Ministry of War, so this fell into my hands. As soon as he heard that I wanted to create a map that could be used as a map, wouldn't you Knowing the look on his face at that time, it was a huge relief."

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Then I'm really rude?"

Yao Zhen pointed at Chen Pingan, "You, you, I don't understand. In two fights, life and death are the top priority. My benefactor is such a happy person. How can we get along with each other so well in daily life? It's not pleasant, it's not. Pride.”

Chen Pingan was speechless.

Yao Zhen said softly: "My grandson, Yao Xianzhi, is thin-skinned and dare not speak, so he begged me to tell you that he wants you to give him some advice on his martial arts. What do you think?"

Chen Pingan thought carefully, "If it's just a polite discussion, I'm fine with it. But if Yao Xianzhi wants to really gain something, I recommend him to find Wei Xian, and I'll help him say hello to Wei Xian."

Yao Zhen said seriously: "That guy just wants to be polite."

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "Then I will help him tomorrow."

Yao Zhen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "After being so polite, I will let him go find Wei Xian."

Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "I'll go talk to Wei Xian later. In this way, I can feel at ease with this map. After all, the guidance of masters like us is hard to buy."

Yao Zhen slapped the table and laughed: "That's right, you are as shameless and bad as I was when I was young, no wonder we hit it off!"

Chen Pingan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Yao Zhen came to take advantage of the joy and returned to take advantage of the joy.

Chen Ping'an spread out the map, took out the square water mark from the square object, breathed lightly, and stamped it twice at the Buried River Temple and Biyou Mansion.

Only then did he put away the watermark and map.

Continue browsing the densely packed small characters on the jade slip. The palm-sized jade slip has more than 5,000 characters engraved on both sides. On the front is the text of the Immortal Family's Artifact Refining Technique, and on the back are the comments and insights of the Water Goddess.

Although on the surface it is just a formula for refining utensils, it actually refers to the Five Elements Avenue, the content of the text is clean and subtle, and the purpose is lofty. Because the Water Goddess understood it from an inscription praying for rain, she started with the five elements of water to explain the general context. Water, the kidneys in the five internal organs govern water, the five senses are the ears, the five senses are the sound, the five fingers are the tail finger, and the five senses are the sound. The liquid is saliva, the five notes are feathers, the five ambitions are fear, the five sacrifices are wells, and the main god is Northern Xuanwu.

The veins are clear, the Qifu acupoints involved, and how they should be refined are explained in detail by the Water Goddess on the back of the jade slip. It can be said that she knew everything, and she even told Chen Ping'an clearly on the back of the jade slip that this Immortal Taoist secret could refine the golden body and incense.

Chen Ping'an was shocked to see it, and then he realized that "a drop of water from the golden vase in the sky" engraved on the inscription had a profound meaning. It meant that after practicing the formula, it would be equivalent to melting the entire golden elixir into water essence, which would moisturize the internal organs. "The flying threads in the sky are like machines" are related to the "post roads" of the meridians in the human body, and the four days in "turning into four days of coolness and sweeping away the heat of the world" also involve the Taoist Qingming world. The four floors of the Bai Yujing high-rise building can help monks subdue their inner demons with four Taoist methods. This is not a heretic, but the most authentic method of Taoism. This is simply the smooth road to heaven that all Nascent Soul immortals dream of. Walking in it may not guarantee success, but the Earth Immortal, who is equivalent to "climbing to the top of the mountain", has built four overpasses to the sky, giving four more opportunities to ensure that he will not go astray. He can even return the same way, and during the practice, It can also benefit the body, mind and soul. Who wouldn’t envy these benefits?

No wonder the Water Goddess bluntly said that this technique "can be refined by all things" and concluded that even in the Immortal Cave with the prefix "Zong", this technique would be the unique treasure of the sect master.

Chen Pingan closed his eyes and recited the five thousand words silently in his heart, making up his mind not to take out the jade slip easily in the future.

For some reason, Chen Ping'an held the jade slip in his hand and felt cool and comfortable all over his body. The injuries sustained in the battle at the inn recovered very quickly.

Chen Pingan opened his eyes and realized that there was something strange, but Chen Pingan couldn't recognize what kind of jade this jade slip was. He thought that he could ask Wei Bo when he went to Luolu Mountain in the future.

In the middle of the night, a burst of water vapor suddenly filled the post house and shrouded it in a white mist. Yin Miaofeng and Shao Yuanran abruptly interrupted their sitting and forgetting, and walked out of the house at the same time to go to the garden.

Chen Ping'an also stopped setting up the sword furnace, opened the window, and jumped out.

Soon, under the urgent reminder of several monks accompanying the army, the Yao family members in the post house put on their clothes and got up one after another. The old soldiers put on their armor and held weapons in preparation.

It was pitch dark in Zhu Lian's room, but the rickety old man had actually been circling the table, silently, with a very particular pace.

Sui sat cross-legged on the bed on his right side, opened and closed his eyes.

Wei Xian lay straight on the bed, his hands clenched and folded on his abdomen, motionless.

Lu Baixiang came to the window and stopped.

Over there in the bamboo forest, Yin Miaofeng and Shao Yuanran breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the uninvited guest.

Taoist Baozhen smiled and clasped his fists in congratulations: "I am so happy and congratulated on the completion of the golden body of the Water Goddess!"

The person standing in front of him was short in stature and dressed in unusually gorgeous imperial attire. He was the God of Buried River Water who had rushed from Biyou Mansion.

From now on, even if the master of the Golden Summit Temple comes here in person and sees the Buried River Water God whose cultivation has soared, he can no longer look down on her. He needs to know that if he is in the buried river waters, especially in Biyou Mansion and Near the Water Temple, this short woman is equivalent to the strength of a Nascent Soul Immortal.

The Water Goddess smiled and said: "Last time, I, Biyou Mansion, did not entertain you well and was extremely rude. This time, in addition to a private matter, I also want to invite Master Yin to visit my house in the near future. I will give Master Yin , and Master Xiao Shao, I will apologize to you all."

Taoist Baozhen was really flattered.

Firstly, the opponent's cultivation level is different now. Even if he is here, he can be regarded as half a Yuanying boss. Secondly, Biyou Mansion has already established a relationship with the quasi-sage Zhong Kui, even if he leaves the Daquan Liu family behind. Ignoring it, the court could only hold its nose and admit it. Third, the upper echelons of Daquan are aware of the bad temper of the buried river god. She is willing to express her position like this. Yin Miaofeng is just one of the worshipers of the Liu family in the Dragon Gate realm. How can she not be surprised?

Even the arrogant Shao Yuanran had a sincere smile on his face.

Chen Ping'an came to the master and apprentice, said hello to them first, and then looked at the Water Goddess.

Yin Miaofeng and Shao Yuanran realized what they were doing and left. At the same time, the old soldiers of the Yao family and the monks accompanying the army did not need to be so alert. Yin Miaofeng took advantage of the opportunity to reveal the identity of the buried river god.

Yao Zhen smiled and gave the Water Goddess a fist in the distance.

There are many rumors about the burial of the river water god on the border, so naturally they are very angry with this old general.

The Goddess of Water returned Yao Zhen's greeting with her fists clasped, and said a straightforward statement that made people laugh or cry, "One day when the general retires and returns to his hometown and returns to the border, he must go to my Biyou Mansion to drink. I have enough!"

Yao Xianzhi and Yao Lingzhi rolled their eyes almost at the same time.

Yao Jinzhi, wearing a curtain hat, stood beside Yao Zhen, standing tall and graceful.

Finally, the Water Goddess flipped her wrist, conjured a jar of wine, threw it to Chen Ping'an, and said in her heart: "Put away that jade slip carefully. The jade slip itself is a good thing, otherwise it would have been given to those with the Dao inscriptions." It was blown to pieces."

The next words of the Water Goddess were not hidden, and everyone could hear them. She was carefree and said with a bold smile: "I thought about it all the way, and I almost wanted to repay the great kindness with my body." Sorry, I couldn't bear it. I drank half of this jar of water flower wine when I came here. I originally wanted to strengthen my courage, but I never thought of entering the inn. I was still too timid and couldn't say those shameful words. , Chen Ping'an, don't you feel a little regretful that you lost such a beautiful wife like a flower? Haha, I just have half a jar of wine left, so I can use it to drown my sorrows!"

This water goddess.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

Chen Ping'an stood there, holding the wine jar. He always felt that the wine was not good even if he drank it, or if he didn't drink it.

Yao Zhen laughed and gloated.

After Yao Xianzhi was stunned, he stretched out his hands and gave Chen Pingan two thumbs up.

Pei Qian stood in a daze in the distance.

Chen Pingan returned to his residence with Pei Qian with a straight face.

When the two separated, Chen Pingan said seriously: "If you meet a girl named Ning in the future, don't tell anyone what happened tonight!"

Pei Qian blinked, "What if, I mean what if, I accidentally let it slip?"

Chen Pingan said in a deep voice: "After I was beaten half to death, I will beat you half to death again. Do you understand?"

Pei Qian immediately said loudly: "I understand! I have read the book, and now I am so strong that I will kill you without saying anything!"

Everyone returns to the house.

Chen Pingan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Finally laughed.

He stopped practicing setting up the sword furnace and lay down on the table. He took out the small whetstone and engraved the beautiful word "Tian Zhen" and the lovely word "Ning Yao" on it.

Miss Ning, I'm fine.

Along the way, I have gone a long way and met many people and things.

I miss you a little, no, I miss you a lot.
