Sword of Coming

The saint Ruan Qiong, who had disappeared for a long time, finally returned home. He first went to the shop on the bank of Longxu River and met his disciple Xu Xiaoqiao. Then before going to Shenxiu Mountain, the main mountain of Longquan Sword Sect, he first vassalized both ends to the Immortal Family's Mansion in Dashan to the west, but... The unruly spirit was casually thrown out of the realm. Ruan Qiong then returned to the top of his mountain. The twelve disciples he had collected after Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao were called together by his second senior brother Dong Gu and asked them to use their swords one by one to perform martial arts. Ruan Qiong remained expressionless and did not instruct these named disciples on any specific sword skills. He sat on a bench. After reading, he got up to forge iron swords. This made the originally high-spirited registered disciples feel uneasy.

The senior sister who likes to wear blue clothes did not show up from beginning to end.

Fourth senior brother Xie Ling was present. He sighed and returned to his house to continue practicing.

As soon as Ruan Qiong appeared, people kept rushing to the Longquan Sword Sect, hoping to be favored by the Immortal Family with the title of this sect.

There were young disciples who were escorted by the powerful families of Dali, young girls who came alone, and many wild cultivators from Shanze who hoped to become the guests of the mountain.

A mixed bag.

This made Dong Gu, Ruan Qiong's nominal disciple, a little troubled.

Dong Gu not only has to serve as half of the disciples of the twelve juniors of the same sect who have not yet recorded the genealogy of the ancestral hall, but also has to take care of all the affairs of the sect, not to mention the twelve people in the Longquan Sword Sect. They have been practicing for a while, and they all know each other's level of qualifications and talents, and their human nature is gradually revealed. Some people think that their talent in sword practice is not as good as others, so they are distracted by interpersonal relationships, and some people practice hard but can't achieve it. Those who are making slow progress in swordsmanship and swordsmanship include those who are respectful and humble on the mountain, but like to consider themselves disciples of the Sword Sect when they come down. There is also the innate sword embryo whose realm is advancing rapidly and is far superior to his peers. He has privately asked Dong Gu to learn more. The best swordsmanship in Menfengxue Temple.

As for those Xianjia sects who built mansions in the mountains to the west, most of them visited Shenxiu Mountain. Naturally, they still needed Dong Gu to come forward to manage the relationship, which was a very energy-consuming and time-consuming thing. Senior sister Ruan Xiu will definitely ignore him. Junior sister Xu Xiaoqiao has a cold temperament and does not like socializing by nature. Xie Ling is naturally not willing to smile and say nice things to others.

If Longquan Sword Sect didn't have to work hard on money matters, Dong Gu would have wanted to regret it and take the initiative to pray to his master Ruan Qiong to open the peak, and then go into seclusion and practice in good faith. The Nascent Soul must be restored within a hundred years. This is a rule Dong Gu has set for himself. After all, unlike Xu Xiaoqiao, who had been one of the sword cultivators of Fengxue Temple since early on, Dong Gu was not a sword cultivator even though he was the founding disciple in the Longquan Sword Clan's genealogy. This was actually a very illegal thing.

Ruan Qiong didn't mind, but Dong Gu felt extremely guilty about this, so Dong Gu thought of the stupidest way. If he wasn't a swordsman, he would use his realm to make up for it.

As for junior brother Xie Ling, he has given birth to a natal flying sword and is currently being nursed. Not only that, the ancestor of the Xie family, Xie Shi, the Tianjun of Luzhou in Beiju who showed the style of suppressing a continent by one person, successively presented this descendant of Taoye Lane with two treasures from the mountain. One of them was for Xie Ling to refine into his own life. The relic of the Luzhou Sword Immortal in the north of the object is called "Taoye". It is a natal flying sword that the sword immortal left in the world after he was defeated. Although it is not Xie Ling's natal flying sword, once it is refined into a natal object After that, one can imagine the power of the relics of the Sword Immortal.

There is also a sword-raising gourd named "Full Moon", which is of extremely high quality.

Dong Gu knew very well that in the eyes of his junior brother Xie Ling, he was not a senior brother at all. It was not that Xie Ling relied on his family background to be arrogant and domineering. On the contrary, on Dong Gu's side, Xie Ling was not disrespectful at all to Dong Gu. There is no slightest disdain for his status. Xie Ling can help him on weekdays and never shirks it. During the critical period of practice after Dong Gu reaches the Golden Core Realm, Xie Ling will take the initiative to teach swordsmanship on his behalf. This elder sister of Xie Ling, You can't find any flaws.

It's just that Xie Ling's talent and opportunity are so good. On the mountain, he only has eyes for Ruan Xiu. At the bottom of the mountain, Xie Ling only has eyes for a handful of young people, including Ma Kuxuan.

When you reach the realm of Dong Gu Xie Ling, the food on the mountain no longer consists of whole grains. Most of them follow the recipes carefully compiled by hundreds of Chinese herbalists to prepare three meals a day. This actually costs a lot of money.

It's just that the Longquan Sword Sect has a big family and few disciples. Ruan Qiong is also the first-class enshrined person in the Dali Dynasty, and he can receive a large amount of immortal master's salary from the imperial court every year. As for Dong Gu, because he is in the Golden Core realm, he once walked through Shujian Lake in his early years. Without doing much, he earned a lot of credit in vain. Afterwards, he got a Peace and Nothingness Card issued by the Ministry of Punishment. He still has it now. He had a name with Niangan Lang of Dali, so he also had a considerable official salary.

Ruan Qiong left the sword furnace that day, cooked a table of food himself, and called Dong Gu alone.

As soon as Dong Gu looked at the popular dishes on the table, he knew that the senior sister would definitely be there.

As expected, Ruan Xiu quickly entered the room, served himself a meal, and sat next to Ruan Qiong. Dong Gu, of course, had his back to the door, sitting opposite his master Ruan Qiong.

"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Ruan Qiong naturally put a chopstick of braised pork into his daughter's bowl, and then said to Dong Gu: "I heard that the original county governor Wu Yuan was transferred out of Xinzhou?"

Dong Gu immediately put down his chopsticks and said respectfully: "After Longquan County was promoted to Longzhou, this disciple of the Imperial Master did not follow the steps and become the governor of Longzhou. Instead, he was transferred to the territory of the original Zhu Ying Dynasty south of Guanhu Academy. , and continue to serve as the county governor near the foot of the Great Li Xinzhong Mountain."

Everyone guessed that Wu Yuan had high hopes from the Imperial Guard and came here to take the lead in expanding the territory. He never expected to be squeezed out by the four major surnames and ten major clans in the small town and suffered a lot of humiliation. Although he was later promoted from county magistrate to county magistrate. However, the Imperial Master had long been dissatisfied, so Wu Yuan, who actually had no merit but hard work, was demoted to a foreign country this time.

Longquan County was promoted to Longzhou, covering a vast area, and administered four counties: Celadon, Baoxi, Sanjiang and Xianghuo.

The town still belongs to Huaihuang County.

Magistrate Yuan has now been promoted to the position of governor of Celadon County. Long Kiln Supervisor Cao Duzao still has his original official position. However, the Ministry of Rites has quietly revised the official rank of the superintendent to be equivalent to that of a county governor, so the two of them are promoted. The young handsome men with the surname of Zhuguo were all promoted, but one was in the public eye and the other was not famous.

The governor of Longzhou was an outsider in the officialdom of Da Li. He came from the vassal state of Huang Ting. His name was Wei Li. He was from the Han tribe. In Huang Ting State, his official rank was only a small county guard of the fourth rank. However, when he arrived in Da Li, he became a veritable official of the frontier. This surprised the Dali Temple. Later, rumors spread in the capital. It was said that the candidate was hand-picked by the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel of Dali, so there was no dispute. Such an unusual move to promote a vassal official to the position of a local minister in Dali was inappropriate. system? Anyway, His Majesty the Emperor didn't say anything, and the Ministry of Rites didn't bother him either. Who dared to act like that? Did he really think that Mr. Guan was a vegetarian? There are only a few Dali officials who can argue with Cui Guoshi and win.

In addition to the changes in officialdom, the three city gods in the prefecture, county and county have also been determined. The two city gods in the county and county are local heroes recommended by the two neighboring states. Although they have been recorded in the Dali Ministry of Rites for a long time, they are the Confucian temples, city gods and gods in various places. Candidates for the gods of mountains and rivers, but under normal circumstances, they are destined not to have a good position for them. This time they were inexplicably appointed as the city god under the jurisdiction of Longzhou, which is an enviable job.

As the highest-ranking first city god in Longzhou, the revelation of this city god also caused quite a stir in the officialdom of Dali. Many important officials in the central government were watching the joke of Yuan and Cao.

Because Zhou Chenghuang was not the candidate recommended by the two major surnames, but a small temple and small land called Mantou Mountain at the intersection of the Xiuhua and Chongdan rivers.

Ruan Qiong said slowly: "It may not be a bad thing for Wu Yuan to stay away from Dali."

Dong Gu didn't know much about the inside story of Dali Temple, so he didn't dare to say anything.

However, Dong Gu still felt a little regretful about Wu Yuan's departure, because the young prefect was very good at conducting himself, and Dong Gu admired the way he dealt with the Longquan Sword Sect.

Fortunately, he served as the new county governor of Baoxi County. His name was Fu Yu. He was the first assistant officer who followed Wu Yuan to enter the small town and county government. Only then did he discover to his surprise that this Governor Fu turned out to be the eldest son of the Fu family, a powerful family in the Great Li Kingdom.

After Fu Yu was promoted to the governor of Baoxi County, he quickly visited the Longquan Sword Sect, and Dong Gu had a pleasant chat with him, which was considered a good thing.

Ruan Qiong said: "From now on, don't worry about the reception and delivery here on the mountain. As long as you don't turn down this kind of thing, you will be busy for the rest of your life. How can you practice? The foundation of Longquan Sword Sect is not Be a good person."

Ruan Qiong glanced at Dong Gu, who was a little trembling, probably because he mistakenly thought that he was not satisfied with his disciple.

Ruan Qiong rarely had a smile on his face, "I accept you as a disciple, not just to do odd jobs. The cultivation matters are divided up and down the mountain. You are now considered a half-stick man. Every time you encounter a small bottleneck here at the top of the mountain, you don't have to go there. I was busy on the mountain, so I took this opportunity to go out and practice. I usually took the initiative to exchange letters with the Punishment Department of Dali. Now that the world is in chaos in Aquarius Continent, after you come down from the mountain, you might be able to bring a few disciples back. Next time, you can communicate with the Punishment Department. We agreed to go to the Ganzhou mountain border first, and anyway, you still need to win over the relationship with Fengxue Temple."

Dong Gu felt relieved and nodded.

My heart is filled with gratitude to this master.

The master's few words were not only to relieve him of pressure, but also had profound preaching meaning. More importantly, they were a disguised way of gaining recognition from the monks of Fengxue Temple.

Ruan Qiong suddenly picked up his chopsticks and swatted away his daughter's chopsticks that were reaching for the last piece of braised pork. "Leave some for Dong Gu."

Ruan Xiu had already filled up an unknown number of bowls of rice.

Dong Gu didn't dare to laugh.

Ruan Qiong said to Dong Gu: "What do you think of the twelve named disciples?"

Dong Gu then described the talents and temperaments of the twelve people one by one.

Ruan Qiong looked at his daughter.

Ruan Xiugang picked up a large piece of food with chopsticks, shook it slightly, and used less food.

Ruan Qiong looked at the dish that was almost bottomed out and simply pushed the dish in front of her.

Ruan Xiu smiled and asked, "Dad, why don't you drink today?"

Ruan Qiong shook his head and suddenly said: "From now on, when you go to the Longji Mountain to practice cultivation, just remember not to conflict with the Zhenwu Mountain monks. And no matter what strange things happen to you, don't be surprised. Dad knows it well."

Ruan Xiu nodded.

Ruan Qiong asked some more about Da Li's current situation.

The Longquan Sword Sect possesses the most detailed landscape report in Aquarius Continent, which was personally formulated by the Dali imperial court and regularly sent to Piyun Mountain and Shenxiu Mountain in Longquan County.

Ruan Qiong said for no reason: "Actually, the disciple I wanted to recruit the most back then was Liu Xianyang."

Dong Gu had heard of this man.

He is the best friend with Chen Pingan of Mu Pingxiang.

He almost died at the hands of the old ape from Zhengyang Mountain.

For this reason, Liu Xianyang and Chen Ping'an formed a deadly feud with the Xu family in Zhengyang Mountain and Qingfeng City.

When the Xu family sold the already built Xian family mansion to the Dali court at a low price, they did not fear Chen Ping'an. Later, the Xu family of Qingfeng City took advantage of the situation and made some measures to remedy the situation. They married a legitimate daughter to a concubine of the Yuan family in Shangzhu Kingdom. They also provided money and effort to help the Yuan family's children control a border cavalry. .

After all, no one could have imagined that the boy from Mud Bottle Alley would be able to reach today step by step.

Ruan Qiong and Dong Gu just ate a few chopsticks symbolically.

Then the master and apprentice started walking.

Dong Gu said softly: "Weishan God held another night banquet. The shop Baofengzhai left behind at the Niujiao Mountain Ferry has reopened. The items for sale are all mountain worship rituals for the mountain gods and monks from all over the country."

Ruan Qiong smiled and said: "It seems that there is a shortage of money over there in Luolu Mountain."

Compared with Dong Gu who is in the Golden Core realm, Ruan Qiong is not only in the Jade Pu realm, but also a saint, so he can see more clearly. Wei Bo's breakthrough this time is the kind without bottlenecks. To be precise, the bottleneck of Wei Bo's advancement to the fifth realm had been broken long ago, and the break was extremely clever and concealed. Ruan Qiong only came to this conclusion after long-term observation. What Wei Bo pursues is the Jade Pure Realm that is easily accessible and more flawless, rather than whether he can break through it.

So that person's bamboo sword stroke at Qidun Mountain was very accurate.

Ruan Qiong felt melancholy in his heart.

Generally speaking, great swordsmen have different swordsmanship and swordsmanship. In fact, the sword cultivators of the upper five realms who are slightly inferior can barely see a rough difference.

But some people use swords, and it takes many years to see the strength.

Great power but not obvious.

In the final analysis, maybe the sword still has to fall on people's hearts to see the power.

Ruan Qiong hoped that one day in the future, Longquan Sword Sect would be able to have such a swordsman, even if it was a little later.

Dong Gu quickly said goodbye and left.

Ruan Qiong looked into the distance.

In the realm of Beiyue, as the land of Longxing in Da Li, Wei Bo, the Beiyue Mountain God and the only mountain and water god in Aquarius Continent who could compete with him, was not Zhongyue, but Nanyue, a female mountain god.

Today, Dali Zhongyue is the old Zhongyue of the Zhuying Dynasty, and the mountain's righteous god is still there. It can be said to be a blessing in disguise, and it has become the Zhongyue of Aquarius Continent today.

Xu Ruo, a Mohist ranger and swordsman, is still sitting on the top of the mountain, living next to the Zhongyue God.

What Ruan Qiong is staring at is Ganzhou Mountain, the new Xiyue Mountain. Since it is not far from Fengxue Temple, and Ganzhou Mountain has never been included in the Five Mountains of any dynasty, Ruan Qiong's trip is the easiest, so this As the number one swordsmith in Aquarius Continent, he also went to Fengxue Temple to reminisce with his seniors and brothers. This was actually the new Emperor of Great Li who deliberately gave Longquan Sword Sect a piece of merit for supporting the dragon.

Compared with the undercurrents and murderous intentions on Xu Ruo's side, Ruan Qiong was fine and light. On the other hand, the Xin Dongyue Qishan side of Da Li was in a state of confusion, and most of Da Li's first-class ministers , everyone is a golden elixir Yuan Ying Earth Immortal. Just during the Great Li Edict sealing the mountain ceremony, there was an extremely brutal fight. Monks from all over the world swarmed in from all directions, trying to kill the Great Li envoys. Even the new emperor's imperial seal document with "gold mud and silver rope and seal seal" was almost smashed to pieces by a hostile Nascent Soul monk. After repelling those monks, the Great Li Consecration also suffered heavy casualties.

Later, the right minister of the Great Li Ministry of Rites patrolled the sky on behalf of the sky. Another siege was clearly a trap. There were still a group of monks from various destroyed countries who entered the game and died generously. This led to the Qishan area of ​​Xindongyue. , with a radius of thousands of miles, the spiritual energy was extremely chaotic, and there were sporadic monks turmoil later. However, Qishan Mountain finally became the new Dongyue of Dali in the bumpy road, and the deity in charge was one of the old five mountains of Dali.

A bigger thing than the imperial seal of the Five Mountains is that Da Li has already begun to select a site in the southern part of Aquarius Continent to build a capital.

Song Jixin granted the royal vassal to Laolong City. When the capital was built, Song Jixin, who was named Song Mu on the clan's genealogical certificate, would control the capital from afar.

One of the several selected sites is the old capital of the Zhu Ying Dynasty. The advantage is that it does not require too much national power. The disadvantage is that it is too close to Guanhu Academy. As for the more hidden temple taboos, naturally some people do not want it. The new vassal king Song Mu, relying on the co-operation between his capital and the old Dragon City, conquered half of Aquarius Continent in one fell swoop.

However, the Dali court has not yet decided where it will be located.

As the chief minister of Dali, Ruan Qiong can make suggestions, and the new emperor of the Song family of Dali will definitely listen to his opinions, but Ruan Qiong will only keep silent.

Ruan Xiu appeared next to Ruan Qiong.

Ruan Qiong, who walked by the Fengxue Temple this time, said softly: "When my father was young, the teachers at the Fengxue Temple thought that the world would not change too much and that we only needed to practice hard, so we juniors also had the same idea. . Now all the old people are lamenting that they can no longer see what Aquarius Continent will be like in just a few decades. Xiu Xiu, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing? "

Ruan Xiu thought for a while and answered the question, "Longquan Sword Sect lacks a cave of its own."

Ruan Qiong's expression became solemn, and he isolated a small world with his saint's magical power, "There are two things. First, the Dragon-Zhanping Platform cliff in Longji Mountain was divided into three, belonging to our Longquan Sword Sect and Fengxue Temple respectively. Zhenwu Mountain. But you may not know it well. The dragon-slaying platform that Fengxue Temple is responsible for guarding and mining is actually almost an empty shell. Dad has been pretending not to see it, so this time he visited Fengxue Temple’s ancestor and mentioned When it comes to this matter, as long as I don't have to take care of it, the Patriarch has acquiesced that the Dragon Slaying Platform has disappeared. So when you go to Jiemao to practice there, you don't need to pay attention to this matter."

"The second thing is the Dongtian Paradise you mentioned. In fact, it is possible to do business at Yang's shop, and there are ready-made ones, but the price is probably difficult to accept. In fact, the price is not bad, and the big deal is that it is on credit."

Having said this, Ruan Qiong looked at his daughter and said worriedly, "Dad still doesn't want to cause trouble."

After all, I still don’t want Ruan Xiu to enter the game too early.

Everything Ruan Qiong did, from leaving the Fengxue Temple, to serving as a saint in Lizhu Cave Heaven at the cost of wasting his cultivation, then to standing on the top of the mountain on his own, being invited by the Dali Song family to serve as a worshiper, etc., was all for his daughter.

Ruan Xiu said: "Dad, it's okay. What kind of temper does Old Yang have? Dad, do you understand?"

Ruan Qiong smiled and said, "Dad, I really don't know."

Except for Qi Jingchun, there are so many saints from all three religions and one family in the history of Lizhu Cave Heaven, and probably no one dares to say that they know what the old man is thinking.

Ruan Qiong is certainly no exception.

Ruan Xiu looked at the other side of the town, took out her embroidered handkerchief, twisted a piece of pastry, and said vaguely: "It's very simple, who is more pure and has the hope of going higher, Old Man Yang will bet heavily on him. I think I'm not bad, so dad can go and give it a try. As for how to set a price, it's better to tell the old man that the ready-made Cave Heaven Paradise, no matter how big it is, is for our Longquan Sword Sect. As for what Ruan Xiu will do in the future, it depends. Ruan Xiu’s mood.”

Ruan Qiong asked doubtfully: "Is this okay?"

Ruan Xiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, probably because the pastries tasted good and she was in a good mood. She clapped her hands and said, "Let's give it a try."

Ruan Qiong hesitated for a moment, "Really talking like this?"

Ruan Xiu nodded.

She was about to reach out.

Ruan Qiong had already used the magical power of a saint and appeared quietly in the backyard of Yang's shop.

Ruan Xiu sighed, hoping that her father would bring some pastries back.

In less than half a stick of incense, Ruan Qiong returned to Shenxiu Mountain with a strange look on his face. Looking at his daughter, he shook his head and sighed: "Is there really such a thing as pie in the sky?"

When doing business with Old Man Yang, one thing can be guaranteed, which is even more reliable than any other landscape oath in the world, and that is that the words spoken by this old man are accurate and there is no need to have any doubts.

Ruan Xiu glanced at the sky and thought it would be nice if some cakes fell down.

————

The Old Dragon City located at the southernmost tip of Aquarius Continent, after Fu Nanhua married the Yunlin Jiang family's legitimate daughter and the city lord faced off against the Nine Realm warriors, for the Qi practitioners, it was just a matter of time to take a breath and welcome Something bigger is coming.

Song Mu of Dali, as the half-brother of the current Emperor Dali, has now become the most prominent and powerful vassal king of the Song family, and he happens to be vassal of Laolong City. The other sons of the late emperor also each received the title of vassal king, but they were all three-character kings. They left Dali and went to various destroyed countries, and the lands were sealed. However, they were far inferior to Song Mu, the one-character king, who was so beautiful. To the point of being scary.

This should have been bad news for Lao Longcheng, who was used to being free and loose. However, several major families, including the Fu family, seemed to have communicated with the Dali court for a long time. Instead of any backlash and conflict, they were each in Lao Longcheng. In the vast territory north of Longcheng and south of the Zhu Ying Dynasty, business is booming, and compared with the previous separate formations, the boundaries are clear. Nowadays, several major families in old Longcheng have begun to cooperate with each other, such as the Fan family It has a close relationship with the Sun family. No matter who is making money with the abacus, the only thing they have in common is that the trade routes of these wealthy families in Old Dragon City have Da Li to help clear the way. As long as they hold the Taiping No Matter Card, they can go to All the Great Li cavalry and Song vassal states along the way sought help.

So when the Fu family gave up half of the inner city of Old Dragon City to serve as the residence of Song Mu, no one was surprised.

However, as the hub of the continent, the business of Old Dragon City was still affected to a certain extent. Many Qi practitioners who regarded Old Dragon City as a paradise and a haven for selling gold also quietly left and watched the changes. However, as the south The Tongye Sect and Yugui Sect of Dazhou expressed their attitude one after another. The business in Old Dragon City soon returned to its peak, and the business was prosperous, even worse. Especially after Song Mu took charge of Old Dragon City, he did not change anything. As a result, many monks returned to the city to continue enjoying themselves.

That day, a young man who took off the feudal king's python robe left the feudal mansion and took his maid to a medicine shop in a back alley in the outer city.

There are no followers because they are not needed.

A four-legged snake with horns curled up in the young man's sleeve.

What's more, the head of the Fu family in Old Longcheng is tantamount to his personal tribute.

The drug store that had been closed for several years had just reopened. The shopkeeper was an old man, and there was also a young man in white clothes with a mole between his eyebrows. He was extremely handsome, and he was followed by a silly child who seemed to be born. Her lips are red and her teeth are white, but her eyes are distracted and she can't speak. It's a pity.

Song Jixin walked into the alley, the autumn air was cool, and the maid Zhigui beside him became more and more beautiful.

When the master and servant crossed the threshold of the drug store, the old shopkeeper arrived for the first time. He did not recognize the identity of the young man in front of him and asked with a smile: "But buying medicine? The customer can choose whatever he wants, and the price has been written down."

Song Jixin frowned, glanced at the old man, and began to select medicinal materials.

Zhigui moved a stool from the drug store and sat at the door.

The old man smiled, these two little guys were really invisible.

He is now fearless and dares to walk across the entire Aquarius Continent. Of course, the prerequisite is to follow the young man in white.

This old shopkeeper was none other than Chen Xiaoyong, the Liuli Immortal who failed in his plans in Rouge County, Caiyi Kingdom. Not only did he not obtain the Celestial Master Seal of the City God hidden by Jincheng God Shen Wen, he almost died and almost lost his Liuli lamp. None of them could be saved. Fortunately, the Grand Master Cui and Lubo Pavilion did not care about his omission. This is normal. The Grand Master Cui is a mountain-top figure who aims to annex a continent. How can he care about the gains and losses of one place, one thing, and one time? When the young man in white found his hiding place, Liuli Xianweng was still trapped. How miserable was he? He was so miserable that he was so full of bad intentions that he planned on the other side. Now he only knows this "young man named Cui". ", is the person in charge of all the dead southern spies in Dali.

Song Jixin's heart was filled with ripples. After receiving that sentence, he started walking towards the backyard of the drug store.

As soon as the bamboo curtain was lifted, Liuli Immortal said quickly: "Guests, you can't go back."

Song Jixin smiled and said, "My name is Song Mu."

The Liuli Immortal thought for a while, smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, please do as you please."

Song Jixin turned to look at the door, "Not together?"

Zhigui turned around and smiled: "I'll forget it."

There are only three people she is afraid of in her life, one is dead, one is no longer in this world, and half of the last one is over there in the backyard.

Song Jixin went to the backyard alone and walked towards the main room with the door open. He walked slowly and straightened his clothes before entering.

The fact that Song Jixin is able to live to this day is a decision made by the person in the house and his uncle Song Changjing.

As for his mother and the emperor's "brother", he probably didn't mind that he re-entered and then erased it from the family genealogy.

Cross the threshold.

The young man in white seemed to regard the lobby of the main room as a study. On the table of the Eight Immortals, there was a picture of Riding on the Plank Road on a Snowy Night.

He also opened a poorly printed Jianghu romance novel in a private bookstore, with small bronze animal paperweights pressed on the pages, and many annotations in ink.

Song Jixin bowed and said: "Song Mu pays homage to the Imperial Master."

Cui Dongshan was lying on the table, his feet twisted together, his posture was lazy, he turned to look at Song Jixin, and said with a smile: "It's been so many years in this small town, and we finally meet again."

Song Jixin said respectfully: "If it were not for the kindness of the Imperial Master, Song Jixin would not have the chance to become a member of the Great Li Clan, let alone become the king and vassal the old Longcheng."

Cui Dongshan's words were not surprising, "Back then, both you and Zhao Yao, Qi Jingchun actually gave me gifts. Zhao Yao, in order to survive, made a deal with me and gave up the spring seal. The gains and losses are not worth it now." Easy to say. As for you, those books were left to you by Qi Jingchun. It’s a pity that you didn’t pay attention to them and didn’t bother to read them. In fact, Qi Jingchun left all the reading experience of Confucianism and Legalism in those books. As long as you are sincere, you will naturally You can see that Qi Jingchun is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to adapt. He has high expectations for you. Who is doing this? If you get those knowledge, your uncle and I may let you wear more clothes. A claw is out."

Song Jixin looked as usual.

Cui Dongshan nodded, "You have a better temperament than Zhao Yao. No wonder Zhao Yao always admired you back then and was not as good as you at chess."

Cui Dongshan pointed to the stool.

Song Jixin sat on the bench.

Cui Dongshan always lay on the table, as if having a family affair with someone, and said with a smile: "Song Yuzhang's death is really undeserved. The method used by the late emperor to build the covered bridge was shady. After all, so many dragons of the Da Li Song family died. Longsun, Song Yuzhang, the superintendent, not only refused to accept the favor, but quickly drew a clear line with you and lived a good life in the Ministry of Rites. Instead, he really regarded you, the prince, as his illegitimate son. If this is not courting death, it is also How to find it?"

Song Jixin's cheeks moved slightly, probably because he gritted his teeth slightly.

Cui Dongshan laughed loudly and tutted: "You Song Jixin has a big heart, and you still have a far-sighted view of whether you can sit on the Dragon Throne or not, but you are also small-minded. Even now, you still haven't been able to let go of Song Yuzhang, a little down-and-out mountain god. .”

Song Jixin clenched his hands into fists and remained silent.

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Ma Kuxuan is so entangled with your maid, does he feel unhappy?"

Song Jixin nodded, "I know Zhigui has no thoughts about him, but it is a disgusting thing after all. So when the situation allows me to kill Ma Kuxuan, I will kill this bitch from Xinghua Lane with my own hands. kind."

Cui Dongshan waved his hands and said with a smile: "You bitch? Don't say such nonsense. You, a descendant of the Song family in Dali, the so-called noble nobleman of Tianhuang, are the bitches in Ma Kuxuan's eyes. What's more, Zhenwushan must be sure We must protect Ma Kuxuan to the death. In addition, the speed of Ma Kuxuan's cultivation is noticed by all Qi practitioners in the continent. So the situation you call may be worse the longer you delay it."

Song Jixin shook his head and said: "If you are too sharp, everything will turn against you. Since I am a secular vassal king, my identity cannot be changed. Anyway, there is no need to fight with him. There are many more murderers in the world besides fists."

In the Zhu Ying Dynasty, Ma Kuxuan killed two Jindan sword cultivators in a row. Once he was playing step by step, teasing each other, and once he was almost risking his life, choosing to use endless pressure tactics to beat his opponent hard.

Ma Kuxuan's cultivation aptitude revealed in two consecutive fights, vaguely made him the well-deserved number one genius in cultivation in Aquarius Continent.

Before Ma Kuxuan, there were only two proud men of heaven who had the recognized honor on this mountain in hundreds of years. One was Li Tuanjing of Fengleiyuan, and the other was Fengxue Temple in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

If Li Tuanjing was not trapped by love, there had always been a rumor on the mountain that once he was promoted to the Jade Pu Realm Sword Cultivator, he would have the opportunity to successfully enter the Immortal Realm, or even the Ascension Realm! By then, Shen Gaozong would not be able to suppress Fenglei Garden, let alone Zhengyang Mountain. Therefore, Li Tuanjing's grievances and grievances back then were actually very complex, and it was definitely not just Zhengyang Mountain that was involved. It's just that these truths have become a thing of the past with the passing of Li Tuan Jingbing. The wind and water turned, Zhengyang Mountain, which had been suppressed by Li Tuanjing for a long time with one man and one sword, finally felt proud and began to steadily suppress the Fenglei Garden. If the new owner of the garden, Huang He, had not started to retreat, all the forces had to wait for him to come out. , only one Liu Baqiao struggled to support Fenglei Garden, and the angry old sword cultivators from Zhengyang Mountain should have asked Jianfeng Leiyuan again and again.

Cui Dongshan tapped his fingers on the table and fell into deep thought.

Song Jixin didn't have any impatience.

He never felt that being the king of the Great Li clan made him qualified to stand up in front of this person. In fact, even if he changed his clothes and sat on the dragon throne, it would still be the same.

Cui Dongshan looked outside the house and said for no reason: "Birds born in a cage will think that flying with wings is a disease."

"Chickens are pecking on the ground, and hawks are seen flying across the sky, and I start to worry about the rice being robbed."

Song Jixin carefully studied the profound meaning of these two sentences.

Cui Dongshan sighed, "Let's not talk about these things. In addition to relaxing, I also have something serious to tell you. You, the vassal king, can't stay in the old dragon city forever. Next we will The second great battle of Da Li is about to really begin. Go to the Zhu Ying Dynasty and personally take charge of the construction of the accompanying capital, and by the way establish a good relationship with the Moh family. A war that is supported by war, if it only stops at plunder ,Meaningless."

Song Jixin asked softly: "May I ask the Imperial Master, what is the second game?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Destruction without the ability to repair and rebuild is self-destructive and is not a long-term solution."

Song Jixin was very smart and somewhat understood the implication of the Imperial Master's words.

Cui Dongshan continued: "The journey south of the Great Li cavalry shattered all the old rules and dynastic laws. This was just a battlefield on horseback. Next, how will the great Li warriors dismount our great Li cavalry? Promulgation of the law is the most important thing. Laws and regulations are dead, they are placed there, so the key lies in people. The good and evil of the law lies half in the documents and half in the people. How the north is doing, how the south is doing, that is This is a test between you, the vassal king, and His Majesty the Emperor. Don’t think that the Shangzhu Kingdom, including the old man from Da Liguan, are fools. They are all looking at you two with wide eyes."

Song Jixin said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Imperial Master, for your advice."

Cui Dongshan smiled and said, "Do you know why the late emperor clearly chose you to be the emperor, but before he died, he asked your uncle to supervise the country? Do you have to pretend that the throne is passed down from brother to brother?"

Song Jixin's expression changed slightly.

Cui Dongshan twitched his lips and pointed at Song Jixin, "In the past, it was the former emperor and vassal king Song Changjing, but now it is the new emperor Song He and the vassal king Song Mu."

Song Jixin's lips moved slightly and his face turned pale.

Cui Dongshan said: "Your father has done a good enough job in being an emperor. As for being a father, I think it is not bad. At least for you, the late emperor really had good intentions. Deep in your heart, you resent that How much does the Queen Mother have, and how much does the new emperor have reason to resent the former emperor? So your feelings about Song Yuzhang are a bit ridiculous. The funny thing is not your little emotion. How can a human being be ruthless like a tree? It's a very normal emotion. What's funny is that you don't understand the rules at all. Do you really think that the one who killed Song Yuzhang was the remnant of the Lu family who did it, your mother who put the head in the wooden box and sent it to the capital? Was it the late emperor? Clearly? Is that so? You can’t even understand this? You still dare to talk nonsense here and rely on the situation to kill Ma Kuxuan, who seems to be your destiny? "

Song Jixin stood up, bowed and bowed again, "The Imperial Master has taught me, Song Jixin has received the lesson!"

Cui Dongshan glanced at him sideways and said, "The books Qi Jingchun left for you, and the knowledge he imparted, seem to be teaching you Confucianism and Confucianism, but in fact, it's just the opposite, but you haven't had the chance to figure it out."

Song Jixin sat down again and said nothing.

Cui Dongshan waved his hand.

Song Jixin stood up, said goodbye and left.

Walking out of the alley with the maid Zhigui.

Cui Dongshan came to the threshold and sat there, yawning.

The old shopkeeper whom he casually carried around with him ran to the courtyard and asked flatteringly: "Master Cui Xian, is that really King Song Mu of the Great Li Domain?"

Cui Dongshan said: "That boy lied to you and was just teasing you."

Liuli Xianweng looked embarrassed. Do you believe it or not? This is a problem.

Cui Dongshan waved his hand, "Continue to be your shopkeeper."

Liuli Xianweng quickly left the yard.

Cui Dongshan changed his position and just lay on the threshold, using his hands as a pillow.

The incident in Rouge County in Caiyi Country back then was just a small link in many plans.

Using the possessed Jin Chenghuang as the thread to influence the Caiyi Kingdom is one of the small plans on the surface. What he and the old bastard really want is more hidden. He wants to use a tactful method that conforms to the rules and principles. , the poor guy who was released from Baidi City and was suppressed by the Celestial Master Talisman for thousands of years should be called Liu Chicheng now, and he had to be attached to the soul of a scholar for the time being. Even if the other party doesn't want to repay this favor, he still has to. As for when to repay the favor, it depends on when Cui Dongshan comes to him and Liu Chicheng.

There are many such unknown masters in the chess game of Aquarius Continent.

But for the two of them, they are not really good players, they just play chess normally.

For example, in the Qingluan Kingdom, Liu Qingfeng, Li Baozhen, and Wei Liang, who were favored by the old man, what the three of them did in this country are of far-reaching significance, and may even have an impact beyond Aquarius in the future. A land of continents. It's just that none of the three of them are very clear about it now. In the end, the one who first understands the meaning may be Liu Qingfeng, who is not a Taoist.

Living in a corner, I did so many trivial things for more than a hundred years.

Sometimes Cui Dongshan will ask himself, what is the point? If we let things go, the mountains will collapse and the earth will fall apart, and the world will change. Will the world have learned enough lessons? Will the final result be better?

Cui Dongshan opened his eyes wide and looked at the scenery just a few feet above his head.

It is the vast majority of people who follow the crowd.

If you are smarter, you like to take shortcuts, look for convenient ways to save worry and effort, seek speed in everything, and achieve your goals as quickly as possible. There is nothing wrong with this. In fact, it is not easy to do this.

But as the sages said, life is like a journey against the odds, and I am also a traveler. Therefore, some sages also said that the wonders and wonders of the world, as well as all kinds of extraordinary views, often lie in dangerous distances and inaccessible places. Only those who are determined can travel slowly and see the magnificence.

Cui Dongshan sighed.

After considering everything in the world, it seems that in the end it is just "boring".

Ma Kuxuan was picked off the chessboard by Lu Chen and placed again.

Song Changjing, a martial artist in the Ten Realms.

Fengxue Temple Sword Immortal in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

The young swordsman from the Zhu Ying Dynasty who was a blessing in disguise and was responsible for the remnants of the civil and military fortunes of the country.

Break and then stand, Liu Xianyang practicing swordsmanship in a dream.

Gu Can in Shujian Lake, who has not changed his character but has only become smarter and better at understanding the rules, definitely has a chance to become a true wild cultivator even more mature than Liu Laocheng.

Li Liu, the co-leader of the world, is born to know it.

Ruan Xiu.

Fengleiyuan Yellow River.

The hidden chess piece carefully cared for by Shen Gaozong and cultivated by Qi Zhen himself.

Xie Ling, who is deeply blessed.

There are also some young people who have not yet stood out or are not well-known, and they may be the mainstay of Aquarius's future momentum.

Cui Dongshan sat up, stayed in a daze for a while, and continued to lie down at the Eight Immortals Table.

His eyes shifted, and the Jianghu romance novel spread out on the table was brought out from the Cliff Academy in Sui Dynasty. When Cui Dongshan had nothing to do, he would flip through a few pages and comment on a few sentences.

When I opened the book page, the writer wrote: "I picked up my sword, took my clothes, and jumped up to the house. The tiles were silent, and the moon was bright, and I left like a flying bird." Then there was the ink pen comment of him who turned the book, " It’s really the style of a swordsman.”

Cui Dongshan moved the paperweight away, spat on his fingertips, picked up the pages of the book and turned it over gently, then turned it back again. He glanced at the text of the comments and did not forget to praise himself, "Good calligraphy and good calligraphy, I am worthy of being a disciple of Mr. "

Cui Dongshan raised his head, and there was a confused and ignorant child standing in the next room.

Cui Dongshan walked around the Eight Immortals table with a smile, bent down, touched the little guy's head, and said with kind eyes: "Little Gao Cheng, grow up quickly."
