Sword of Coming

Well, in the recent summer, a shocking event happened on the mountain.

In the Wei and Jin Dynasties at the Immortal Platform of Fengxue Temple, they found the great monk from another continent who was temporarily practicing in the central area of ​​Aquarius Continent, Xie Shi, the Heavenly Lord of Luzhou in the north.

After the First World War, Wei and Jin left Aquarius Continent and went to Daoxuan Mountain alone with their swords.

In that battle on the top of the mountain with only a few spectators, the outcome was not revealed, but since Xie Shi continued to stay in Aquarius Continent, this Taoist Heavenly Lord who had already incurred the wrath of the Aquarius Continent must not have lost.

However, even if the Wei and Jin Dynasties failed to defeat Xie Shi with one sword, the monks from Aquarius Continent had no complaints against the land swordsman who had just entered the upper fifth realm. They only had the honor of being a monk from the same continent, especially He is a sword cultivator from Aquarius Island, and he is even more proud.

This is a major event on the mountain that attracts the attention of the entire continent.

Among them, there is also a certain incident on the mountain that attracts attention in the central part of Aquarius Continent.

A Zhenwu Mountain monk named Ma Kuxuan was less than twenty years old and had only been practicing for a few years. He actually killed two Jindan sword cultivators in two deadly battles. It is said that this was Ma Kuxuan's hidden pressure. Under the premise of the ability at the bottom of the box. The Zhu Ying Dynasty chose to remain silent on this, because during the two battles, both Ma Kuxuan's Zhenwu Mountain protectors and the royal family members of the Zhu Ying Dynasty were watching. Ma Kuxuan's actions were without any problems, they were fair and honorable. .

For a time, Ma Kuxuan's name spread throughout Aquarius Continent.

After Xiaoman, especially once it enters the plum rain season, there is a lot of moisture and evil. Whether you are a Taoist or a layman, you should pay attention to warming and nourishing the yang and righteousness to resist the moisture and evil.

When Chen Ping'an and his three riders went north, they took a route east of the capital of Shihao Kingdom. When they went south, they took a different trajectory.

In the torrential rain that day, Chen Ping'an and the others took their horses to rest in a dilapidated pavilion. Chen Ping'an's heart strings trembled, and the wooden box in his sleeves trembled and became slightly hot.

There was actually a messenger flying sword that should never have appeared.

Liu Zhimao has been detained in the water prison. There is absolutely no way that under the noses of Liu Laocheng and that group of strange monks, he still has the ability to control his own little sword tomb flying sword to send a message to him.

Chen Pingan even planned to turn a blind eye.

After weighing the pros and cons, he carefully put away the messenger flying sword that was indeed Liu Zhimao's and opened the flying sword ban.

The secret message is just three sentences.

"This trip returns to Shujian Lake, you have to be careful."

"The reason for this reminder has nothing to do with you, Chen Ping'an, nor our established business. It is purely because I don't like some faces, so to show my sincerity, I borrowed Liu Zhimao's flying sword."

"Interception of Feijian, no need to reply."

After Chen Pingan put away the wooden box, he fell into deep thought.

It is undoubtedly the work of Liu Laocheng of Gongyanagi Island, but why it is so is worthy of scrutiny.

Liu Laocheng's frank "reminder" was by no means a major change in Shujian Lake's situation on the surface. There was no need for Liu Laocheng to tell Chen Ping'an that Chen Ping'an was not blind or deaf, and Zhang Ding came to inform him. , with Liu Laocheng's meticulous thinking and ambition, he would never waste any time or words on such a matter. So Liu Laocheng's so-called reminders and cautions must be in more subtle ways, and it is very likely that they are closely related to Chen Ping'an himself.

Chen Pingan stood on the edge of the small pavilion that was constantly leaking, looking out at the gloomy rain curtain. Now, a worse result was waiting for him.

Zhang Dao escaped from Shujian Lake by using the hidden secret passage in Qiaotu San Cave on Qingxia Island. Maybe it was due to the expectations and calculations of some people behind the scenes.

But why didn't he take action directly against Gu Can and Chunting Mansion? Why didn't he choose a simpler, less troublesome and immediate method to force himself to rush to Shujian Lake and kill him directly?

Chen Pingan sighed and murmured: "Is it another battle between the great avenues? Then it makes sense that it is not the sect leader on the Aquarius continent who takes action, the Tongye sect where Du Mao is? Or? Taipingshan, for sure No. The first major sect we passed when we boarded Tongye Continent, Fuji Sect? But I was just passing by Lu Tai at that time and had no disputes. In the dispute between avenues, there are also differences between high and low, broad and narrow. , to be able to chase him to Aquarius Continent without mercy, the other party must be a monk in the upper fifth realm, so the possibility of supporting the Ji Sect is not high."

Chen Ping'an frowned tightly, "But it's not like the old temple master who has great Taoism. When it comes to him, the avenue is not so small."

Chen Ping'an suddenly turned around and said: "Zeng Ye, Ma Duyi, you don't need to accompany me back to Shujian Lake, go directly to the border between Shihao Kingdom and Meigla Kingdom, and wait for me at the Liuguan Pass there."

Zeng Ye wanted to speak, but Ma Duyi grabbed his sleeve.

Chen Pingan turned his head and continued to look at the rain curtain.

Farewell to the pavilion.

Riding south alone.

The thick blue cotton robe was replaced by a thin and fitted green shirt.

Chen Pingan successfully arrived at Lutong City on the border of Shujian Lake without any setbacks.

After all, Lutong City is a fringe force in Shujian Lake. The undercurrents and changes in Shujian Lake, as well as Su Gaoshan's shocking words and actions in Chishui City, for the local residents of Lutong City, whether they fail to occupy the island as king , idle monks who founded sects, or ordinary people begging for food. Many times, the bigger the matter, the quieter it becomes, because under the general trend, if you don't accept that fate, what else can you do, especially those ordinary people who are born and raised outside? The world is so chaotic. Even if you have some savings, where can you move it? Do you dare?

There are many delicious foods in Lutong City.

Chen Pingan randomly found a steamed bun shop and was a little surprised. He bought two. He loved eating them and bought two more. It had been a long time since Chen Pingan had eaten until he felt ninety percent full.

The shop is newly opened, and the shopkeeper is very young, not even a teenager yet.

Business is not bad.

Chen Ping'an inquired for some more information on the way from Lutong City to Chishui City around the border of Shujian Lake. Compared with the war-torn Shihao Kingdom, the gossip here would obviously be closer to the truth.

At the familiar ferry in Chishui City, more than half a year has passed, and the ferry is still quietly tied to the shore.

Even though Liu Zhimao of Qingxia Island has completely lost power, his status as the first-class enshrinement of Qingxia Island still has some weight.

On the way here, he left the horse at an inn. Chen Ping'an gave him some money and asked the inn to help feed it.

It's a hot summer day, and the entire Shujian Lake is filled with heat, like a big steamer.

It’s hard to imagine that when we left Shujian Lake, this place was still a landscape filled with snow and white.

Chen Pingan returned to Qingxia Island by boat alone.

After stopping the boat and landing, after passing the mountain gate, the old monk who was the concierge was still listless. When he saw the accountant who had returned to Qingxia Island, his smile remained the same.

It seems that the disappearance of the island owner Liu Zhimao, the ruined Hengbo Mansion, and the Throwing Whip Shujian Lake by General Da Li have not affected the leisurely life of this old monk.

Chen Ping'an greeted the old monk at the porter, chatted for a few words, and opened the door. There was nothing unusual, except that there was some dust accumulated, because before leaving Qingxia Island, he said that there was no need to clean here.

Chen Ping'an first went to the Hengbo Mansion, which had become a ruin and could no longer be rebuilt. He stood on the edge of the ruins and was silent for a moment, then turned and walked towards the Chun Ting Mansion, where the wealthy family was still there.

Nowadays, Qingxia Island is leaderless, and Zhang Jing, who can barely maintain the situation, has disappeared. Liu Zhimao's disciple Tian Hujun on Sulin Island, as a local Jindan monk, actually went into seclusion due to this kind of thing. In addition, Gu Can lost his That little loach, Yu Hui and his ilk, who were the great worshipers on the vassal islands, now interacted secretly with some of Liu Zhimao's direct disciples, as well as the worshipers on the vassal islands, and each had their own plans.

I believe that during this period, the Chunting Mansion, without the Hengbo Mansion and Liu Zhimao who were firmly suppressing them, looked like a beautiful place, but in fact it was quite a torment.

The sky is falling, the top is high, and now Liu Zhimao is like this, who's turn will be next?

Everyone in the Chunting Mansion, no matter how ignorant they are of the general trend, will know it.

Mother Gu Can, she is already waiting at the gate with her two beautiful and young confidants.

Spring Court Mansion still has some intelligence.

The woman walked quickly towards Chen Ping'an and said softly: "Ping'an, why are you getting thinner and thinner?"

Chen Ping'an sighed in his heart, but still smiled: "I have been wandering around Shihao Country, often sleeping in the open air, but I'm used to it, and it's actually not bad. Where is Gu Can?"

The woman smiled and said: "After you left Qingxia Island, he liked to walk alone on Qingxia Island. Now he has gone wild somewhere. Dogs can't change their habit of eating shit. They have been doing this since they were young. Every time they arrive, I have to shout to him loudly to eat, but now I can’t. No matter how loud I shout, I can’t hear him even if I am far away from home. Auntie is not used to it at first.”

Chen Ping'an smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait for him here. After we finish talking about things, I will leave Shujian Lake soon."

The woman was full of disappointment, "Are you so anxious?"

Chen Ping'an hummed.

The woman chatted with Chen Pingan here, mostly reminiscing about the bitterness and sweetness. In those days, the parents of Mu Ping Alley and Xinghua Alley were feuding, and Chen Pingan also talked about some of Ma Kuxuan's current situation.

The woman was filled with emotion. She really didn't expect that the little fool who was bullied so badly back then could be so successful now. It's a pity that Granny Ma, the bad-mouthed one, didn't get to see her grandson's kindness and enjoy a happy life. At this point, the woman seemed to be hurt by the scene and turned her head to wipe the corners of her eyes with a silk scarf.

About half an hour later, Gu Can slowly returned to Spring Court House.

When he saw his mother and Chen Ping'an waiting at the door, Gu Can, who was as tall as a boy from the Northland, this Demon King of Shujian Lake who easily made people forget his true age, still did not speed up his pace.

When he reached the door, Gu Can said hello to the woman, then looked straight at Chen Ping'an and said softly: "You're back?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "I have heard about the things on Qingxia Island, and I have something to tell you."

The woman had realized what was going on and left.

Chen Ping'an led Gu Can towards the ruins of Hengbo Mansion and said slowly: "The more chaotic it is, the less impatient it is. Making mistakes while busy is the most undesirable."

Gu Can nodded.

Chen Pingan asked: "Yuan Yuan of Oriole Island has taken refuge in Dali, do you know?"

Gu Can still nodded, "I heard that there is no airtight wall in the world. After seeing you last time, Lu Caisang didn't come even once, but Han Jingling and Huang He made a special trip after Su Gaoshan's appearance and Liu Zhimao's accident. When I went to Qingxia Island, Huang He wanted to come into your house and take a look, but I refused. His face didn't look very good at that time."

Chen Pingan glanced at Gu Can.

Gu Can smiled and said, "I know now that I'm not smart, but I'm not too stupid, right?"

Chen Ping'an hummed, "Don't be disappointed with people like Han Jingling and Huang He, that's stupid. At the same time, don't be disappointed with Lu Caisang, that's not smart enough. You are true friends. Since you are friends, you must put yourself in their shoes. , think more about the other person’s situation. Lu Caisang also has his own disciples and responsibilities. A true friend should be more considerate. The world is complicated. Don’t expect perfection. It’s best if you have it. If you don’t, just keep that feeling. Maybe it will be better in the future. That day, a best friendship was waiting for me, and when the time comes, it will be like a jar of fine wine, and it will not be too late to drink it again."

Gu Can remained silent, "Chen Ping'an, is it too late for me to listen to your reasoning?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "It's not too late."

Gu Can said: "But I am still the same Gu Can, what should I do?"

Chen Ping'an said: "Every little bit better is a little bit better, and every more truth is a little bit better."

The two of them stopped talking and walked to the ruins of the former site of Hengbo Mansion.

Chen Pingan asked: "Do you want to leave Shujian Lake with me and come back again, just like me this time?"

Gu Can asked, "What about my mother?"

Chen Pingan did not give an answer.

He just gives choices.

Gu Can shook his head and said: "I know you are doing it for my own good, but I won't leave. I don't feel relieved if I leave. Even if I stay here, it won't be of any use, but I just leave like this. I can't bear it, and I can't bear it anymore." You, no matter how sorry I am, little loach, I can no longer be sorry to my mother. I still won’t regret it, Chen Ping’an, if you want to scold me, just scold me.”

Chen Pingan did not insist on his opinion, let alone scold Gu Can.

Gu Can was a little strange.

Chen Ping'an put his hands in his sleeves, looked at Gu Can who looked confused, and said softly: "Has Chen Ping'an ever scolded the little slug in Mud Bottle Alley?"

Gu Can smiled.

Cried too.

So that’s it, Chen Ping’an’s truth is that simple.
