Chapter 1076 The Lineage of Literary Saints

The city of Chuzhou is in the same city as the county seat and government seat of Longquan County, so it is naturally more prosperous than Hongzhu Town at the confluence of three rivers.

A well-dressed woman, after returning to her hometown, after these years of being pampered and graceful, if you just look at her face and ignore the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, she looks like she is in her thirties, and you say "senior lady" as a compliment. , not the least bit conscience-stricken. Anyone who doesn't know her well would mistakenly think that she is a wealthy woman from Fulu Street.

The house is paved with earth dragons. If you need a brazier at your feet, you can even save the charcoal cage on your hands.

When she returned to her hometown from Qingxia Island in Shujian Lake in her early years, she bought many houses directly in Zhoucheng. Facts have proved that the huge amount of money she gritted her teeth and spent back then not only did not go to waste, but actually made a lot of profits. Just the sales of those shops every year Rent is the entry of a large sum of money. Of course, she has long since despised those gold and silver. Fairy money is money.

In recent years, the woman often went to the house in Huaihuang County to worship her ancestors during the Qingming Festival, and then returned to Mu Ping Alley to sit for a while.

All her thoughts are still on her new home, such as in the house, where everything must be in order and there must be a distinction between superior and inferior, in order to be able to manage the family well.

There is the Xianjia Inn on the mountain next to the city. She will ask the housekeeper to go there regularly to buy landscape newspapers.

This was a big expense. After all, it was all fairy money, but the woman didn't feel any distress at all. Firstly, she wanted to inquire about the Middle-earth Divine Continent, especially Baidi City, and secondly, it could show her high status. door identity.

In the house, the woman took several maids to chat about household matters, sat around the fire at night, warmed a pot of glutinous rice wine, and each had a drink. The flower table was filled with all kinds of snacks.

A plump maid lowered her head to take a sip of wine and smiled sweetly: "Madam, with the young master's cultivation qualifications and the young man's status as the direct descendant of Baidi City, it will not be difficult to establish a sect when he returns to his hometown in the future. .”

Back then, the wife brought a few personal maids from Hengbo Mansion on Qingxia Island. They were here to do as the local customs do. Today, with the wife, they posted Spring Festival couplets, burned incense to invite the door god, the kitchen god, etc. The wife's hometown is very particular. , but practice makes perfect, and they get used to it year after year. Just like tomorrow is the first day of the first lunar month, I have to go with my wife to the mountain temple on Fengliang Mountain to burn incense. I just moved to Zhoucheng, and my wife will still think about leaving on New Year's Eve and get there early so that I can burn the first stove of the New Year. I even wanted to stay in the temple overnight. However, since the last time Gu Can returned to his hometown and had a chat with his wife, she no longer deliberately competed for the first fragrance. Gu Can said that according to the Buddhist teachings, the so-called There are two ways to say the first incense. One is sincerity, and the incense is fragrant. Whether it is in a temple or at home, it is the same wherever you burn incense. The other is to worship the Buddha piously, so every time you offer incense, it is the same. You are burning the incense yourself, there is no need to compete with others.

The woman smiled and said: "Xiao Can is just one of the direct disciples of City Lord Zheng. Even if a sect is established in Baidi City, according to what is written in the residence newspaper, it will probably be in Fuyao Continent and will not come to our Aquarius Continent."

Over the years, the woman has learned a lot about the world through the newspaper on the mountain in the Xianjia Inn, and the newspaper in that inn is said to have a wider background than the Chenghuang Temple in the state.

The woman suddenly looked regretful and said: "It's just a shame for you. Who would have expected that a Zhenjing Sect would pop up over Shujian Lake. If you hadn't followed me here, you might have become a member of the sect today. The genealogy is like a fairy, and you are called a fairy when you go out. How can it be like now, when you can only stay in such a palm-sized house and work as a maid for a woman?"

The woman knew that they, who were cultivating the Taoism, would write their names on the golden and jade genealogy of the immortal mansion with the prefix Zong there, which could be regarded as a smoke coming from the ancestral grave.

Originally, there were two taboos in the house, one was Shujian Lake, and the other was the accountant named Chen.

No one in the same place can talk.

Unexpectedly, Madam Tonight would actually take the initiative to chat about Shujian Lake.

The two personal maids in the room looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. The maid who was relatively thin immediately laughed and said: "Madam, what you said is not right."

The woman smiled and asked, "Tell me, what's wrong?"

The maid said sternly: "Looking closer back then, it was Madam who personally brought us out of the pit of fire. Now, in the long run, what's the future for us compared to being an outer disciple of the Zhenjing Sect who is dawdling around? But with Madam Around me, the young master is the most filial person in the world. How many of us will be left behind in the future? The young master Hongfu Qitian is one of the most favored sons of heaven. We don’t even talk about the young master’s master, City Lord Zheng, but only that master. Guhan Qiaose is an immortal, as well as my junior uncle Liu Daochun, who is the master of Liuli Pavilion, and my senior brother Fu Xi, who is also a great swordsman. Which one of them is not a towering figure on the mountain? Any one of them, come here Aquarius Island, not to mention the Zhenjing Sect, even if you go to the Shengao Sect, when you meet Qi Tianjun, you still have to call each other Taoist friend and treat yourself as a guest."

Regarding the fact that Gu Can went to Baidi City to practice cultivation, apart from the women, the only ones in the family who knew the truth were a few of their personal maids.

This is a sincere statement.

But she didn't tell the whole story.

Gu Can's achievements in the Dao are only on one side. Among them, who is not afraid of Gu Can? They were afraid to the core of their bones because of the demon king in Shujian Lake.

Strangely enough, when Gu Can grew up, he seemed to have become a Confucian scholar. When he returned to his hometown last time and saw Gu Can again, even though Gu Can looked gentle, they became more afraid and frightened.

If we say that Gu Can, the disciple of Qingxia Island Jiejiang Zhenjun Liu Zhimao, is a little lunatic who may commit murder anytime and anywhere, he is a natural wild cultivator.

Then the young man Gu Can seemed to have become a serious and ulterior person. Even if he stood face to face, it seemed that he would never know what Gu Can was thinking.

Gu Can, who walked out of Shujian Lake, was seriously inconsistent with his age in terms of realm, temperament, and methods.

Before leaving home, Gu Can had called a few of them together in private. Instead of being arrogant and domineering like he had when he was young, he was friendly, spoke politely to them, and made a three-part agreement with them, with clear rewards and punishments. They are even allowed to make a mistake once or twice. However, they are required to send a letter to Baidi City with flying swords every year. As for the content of the letter, it is up to them. Even if they just ask for advice on some difficult problems in the cultivation pass, there is no problem. Moreover, he would pay for the expenses of the letter on the mountain. He just told them not to tell his mother about this matter.

In the end, Gu Can smiled at them and said, "I've had some heart-to-heart talk with you, so don't take it seriously."

The two parties made a three-part agreement, one of which was that they were not allowed to stir up trouble on their mother's side and turn what was originally a small matter into a troublesome matter that required alerting the county magistrate's office or the Dali court. They were not allowed to take the initiative to cause trouble outside, but if someone else provoked them , no matter who the other party is or what their background is, as long as they are in charge, there is no need to be afraid of trouble. Gu Can will know the truth, because they are now half of his family.

In the end, Gu Can stood up, clasped fists with them and thanked them, saying that they would have to worry about her mother's food, clothing, housing and transportation from now on.

The woman was overjoyed after hearing the maid's sincere words. She smiled, picked up a piece of pastry from the plate, and handed it over gently, "My Xiao Can has endured hardship since she was a child. Now she is just getting through the hard days. Without you to say It’s so exaggerated.”

Yes, the hard days that seemed to have no end were actually managed by the two of them day by day.

Thinking of this, the woman's eyes turned red, she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

The two maids quickly offered words of comfort.

The woman smiled and waved her hands, "I'm just remembering the bitterness and remembering the sweetness. Anyway, the past is over."

Over the years, many people have come to seek her out as relatives.

In fact, they are all untouchables. Most of them get some money from the government and get rid of their work. In short, those scammers will not be rejected.

In order to prevent it from being unpleasant, they would gossip behind her back and say that she had forgotten her roots and turned against others when she had money.

Before Gu Can left home last time, she and her mother, who depended on each other for life, had some personal conversations.

The woman was relieved, distressed, and a little strange.

I am gratified that my son has really grown up and can take on the role of a family leader. At the same time, I feel sad that my son is so sensible at such a young age.

The strange thing is that this son seems to be different from the son in Mubo Alley in the early years and later in Qingxia Island. To be precise, he is too different.

During that chat, Gu Can and her mother talked about some truths that were not in books. The young man wearing a Confucian shirt at that time also joked that these were words he picked up from the ground in the alley in front of his house.

"Only when you have been poor can you realize that almost all the people around you are ghosts."

"But as long as people become wealthy, even if you are walking at night, let alone the people you see, even the ghosts you encounter on the road will be good ghosts."

"But people can turn into ghosts, but ghosts will never turn into people."

"Mom, now that our family is rich, we will never be short of money in the future, so don't be too frugal. For the servants in the house, the rules must be clear and strict. There must be no ambiguity, and we must not be happy. He is very kind to all outsiders. If he is in a bad mood, he will get angry at the people around him. Over time, the servants who understand the situation will look down on my mother, so my mother must not handle the housework 'by herself'. Let the 'rules' follow."

"But outside of family rules, mother can be more polite to them. There are two kinds of favors here. One is money, which is the most real. There are also those positions, identities, and titles derived from money. One is imaginary. Yes, it’s my mother who, as the head of the family, speaks a few words or even a look in your daily interactions with them. None of them can win people’s hearts. You can only have both, coupled with rules and family laws. Only then can our family be long-lasting and stable."

"Of course, if mother is holding a breath in her heart and feels that she has spent too many years of hard life and finally got through hard work, why should she be nice to them, then that's okay. If mother thinks what I said It makes sense. It would be best if you are willing to treat them sincerely and treat them as human beings instead of treating them as ordinary people. Taking a step back, if you have a son, even if you are not with your hometown and mother, they will I definitely don’t dare to make a mistake, but I hope my mother can guarantee one thing. If anyone in the family makes a mistake in the future, I or someone else will deal with that person, and I won’t be able to speak out against him."

"We know everything and do whatever we want. That is a person who lives very freely. But if we do whatever we want even though we don't know anything, we will suffer in vain."

"In the final analysis, how to behave in the world and how to be a human being are two different things."

"I feel that if there is a person who can live his whole life without harming others, there are only two possibilities. One is a pure good person who never harms others. The other is a truly strong person, because they do not need to harm anyone at all. You can live a good life. I hope my mother can treat the former kindly and respect the latter."

The woman just listened quietly to her son's words.

Gu Can used a calm tone and said some truths that she could understand.

When her son grows up, he will teach her how to behave.

The woman came to her senses and joked: "Do you two have a crush on someone?"

The two maids looked at each other, smiled, and shook their heads no.

On every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, rain or shine, the woman would go to the Fengliangshan Temple, where the incense is flourishing, to burn incense and make wishes to bless her son outside, so that his practice goes smoothly and all his wishes come true.

And every time she reached the foot of the mountain, the woman would stop the carriage and hike up the mountain to ask for a sincere prayer.

The reason why she often goes to Fengliang Mountain to burn incense is that besides being close to the house in Zhoucheng, the woman also has some small considerations of her own.

Looking back on those days, I heard too many "criticisms" that made people sad and hurt their lungs over there in Mud Bottle Alley.

The woman murmured: "How happy she would be if she could see what she is today."

Shujian Lake Qingxia Island.

At the entrance of the mountain, there was a locked room, and in the next room, the lights were on, as bright as day.

It was Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi who came here to watch the night. They did this almost every year, and there was no surprise.

Zeng Ye has been having great luck since he landed on Qingxia Island. It's no wonder that he is nostalgic. In such a "Longxing Land", he needs to move around a lot.

As for the little girl named Ma Duyi, she is a ghost. She has been wearing fox skin talismans over the years. She seems to like to buy some rouge and gouache to reward herself.

Liu Zhimao clasped his hands behind his back and walked to the Shanmen Archway, but did not go to sit down in the room. He just glanced at the Spring Festival couplets and the word "Fu" over there.

It seems to be posted by the second-class worshiper of Qingxia Island, the ghost cultivator of Zhu Xian Mansion who was a food carrier, and his concierge Hongsu.

Liu Zhimao walked straight to the ferry. A breeze blew by, and an uninvited guest appeared beside him.

Liu Zhimao turned around and said with a smile: "The master is so leisurely and relaxed."

The old man on the side of the ferry nodded, "Have you really thought about it? Don't you think about it anymore? You don't want to think about it next time you visit Gongliu Island. What should I say?"

Liu Laocheng, now the leader of Zhenjing Sect, is also the first Shanze Yexiu in Aquarius Continent to reach the upper five realms.

The implication is that if he agrees to what he said, Liu Zhimao will be the fourth sect leader in the history of Zhenjing Sect.

Liu Zhimao shook his head and said: "My humble life means that I cannot be the leader. I wanted to succeed the sect leader and serve as the co-leader of Shujian Lake. I have tried so hard and planned so many things. It's not like I'm trying to draw water from a bamboo basket in vain. I want to Don't you still know a little about the truth of being a human being? I almost lost my life. Now every time I think about it, I still feel scared. Master, please don't make things difficult for me."

Liu Laocheng nodded and said, "Then I will make other arrangements."

Liu Zhimao sighed for no reason, "The weather is old and the clothes are old, but the new year is new."

Liu Laocheng smiled and said: "People on the mountain should not speak the language of the mountain."

Liu Zhimao asked tentatively in his heart: "Is it easy to deal with the new Lake Lord?"

Liu Laocheng said: "It's okay now, but it will definitely become more and more difficult in the future. It's just that compared to back then, it was always a little easier to scheming with that young accountant."

Liu Zhimao burst out laughing, "It's really unimaginable that I would go out at night with Liu Laocheng on Gongliu Island without having to worry about being beaten to death."

Liu Laocheng smiled and turned to look at the lake. The islands were like immovable boats.

While surfing the sand and boating at night, the vanilla beauty dare not sing in case the dragons listen.

In the early days of Shujian Lake, everyone had to be careful. The only rule was that there were no rules, and it was not easy to sleep peacefully.

Over at Shanmen House, Gui Xiu Ma Yuanzhi and the concierge Hongsu were keeping vigil here together.

Anyway, the whole house is basically the same as the foot of the mountain, so it is naturally a bit closer.

Zeng Ye talked about some past events, but he couldn't get around the two of them anyway, Mr. Chen at first, and Gu Can later.

Whenever Zeng Ye mentioned the latter, Ma Duyi couldn't help but make fun of him, not knowing that he was scared to death of Gu Can before. As a result, during the last parting of the year, someone actually started to cry silently. Was it because he was extremely sad or because he was crying with joy.

Zeng Ye looked embarrassed. He had never been able to quarrel with Ma Duyi, so he only dared to mutter, who knew that Gu Can's temperament would change drastically, and he would be completely different from the other two.

"Mr. Chen once said that we can become the children of our parents. Becoming the parents of our children in the future may be a debt collection or a debt repayment."

"When Mr. Chen said this, he smiled and said that he was just a debt collector."

The whole room fell silent, and there was a slight sound of charcoal cracking in the brazier.

Ma Duyi suddenly shouted angrily: "How come I didn't know that Mr. Chen talked about this with you?"

Zeng Ye said helplessly: "Mr. Chen and I always have time to be alone."

Ma Duyi complained: "Why don't Mr. Chen talk about this when we are alone?"

They were drinking wine, which was made from Hongsu's hometown. Zeng Ye started talking about Mr. Chen's gossip about drinking, saying that there were two most interesting things in life: meeting old friends again after a long separation, half-drunk from drinking, and looking back. Looking back at life, drinking tea brings happiness.

Ma Yuanzhi's face was a bit reluctant, and he said: "This guy Chen Ping'an is still a bit knowledgeable. People who have eaten ink are just different."

Hongsu blinked and said with a smile, "Why don't you call me Mr. Chen?"

Ma Yuanzhi snorted, "I promised to write a book for me, and write about the story between me and Her Royal Highness, but in the end I was so procrastinate that I didn't even know if I had finished the first few thousand words."

Ma Duyi turned to look at Hongsu, but Hongsu only dared to shake his head quietly, indicating that this was not the case at all.

Zeng Ye thought of a woman for no reason. After so many years, he still missed her often.

Probably the so-called "care" is to hang a portrait of a beloved woman in the heart and never forget it.

Ma Duyi asked casually: "Did Mr. Chen ever say that he could get married in this life? What is that?"

Zeng Ye smiled and nodded, giving an answer.

"It's a wish."

————

In the corridor on the top floor of the tallest building of the Demon Suppressing Tower, Chunyang Taoist holding a sword on his back, Xiao Mo and Qing Tong saw the vision almost at the same time.

Taking the building under their feet as the center of the circle, figures of landscape gods and monks appeared in the air one after another, offering incense. They lined up with their backs to the corridor on the top floor, as if dozens of mirrored scenes were opening at the same time. It was an unprecedented "ancestral hall" discussion, with one mind, only one thing discussed, and one thing done.

In honor of the Danjiang Water God, Li Jin got two gold-painted scrolls, left the bookstore, returned to the water house, bathed and changed clothes, put on the official robes of the River God, lit a stick of water incense, and paid homage to Tongyezhou in the south. Make a wish and say silently in your heart, may the dead in this continent rest in peace and the living be well.

The embroidered river god, a river god with a green snake wrapped around his arm, solemnly offers incense. May the broken mountains and rivers of Tongye Continent be restored to integrity, and may the heroes on the battlefield of the continent be reincarnated.

In the Yuye River, the goddess of water, Ye Qingzhu, lit a stick of water incense and muttered something like, "The adults don't remember the faults of the villains. I am willing to do my little bit for Tongye Continent, and wish the continent a peaceful and prosperous life."

In the Lotus Root Blessed Land in Luolu Mountain, headed by Shuijiao Hongxia, they led all the river gods in the blessed land, each lighting a stick of incense. The incense curled up into the sky, and suddenly they all drifted away to the south.

Jidu is located in Luzhou in the north, and the temple in the old Jidu is in the middle of the water. Today's Longting Marquis Li Yuan, a young man in black robe with a pair of golden eyes, speaks out his wish loudly in the Dadu Marquis' mansion. The land of Continent has good weather.

In the Yunxiao Palace of the Chongxuan Department of the Dayuan Dynasty, Yang Qingjin, the national master, and the old master held a dagger tail engraved with the word "Wind God" and lit three sticks of fragrance.

Beside the old master is the Jade Pure Realm monk whose Taoist name is "Kneading Ni". Yang Houjue looks respectful, holding incense in both hands with the ancestor of the Yang family, facing the south.

The river is swaying on the beach of bones. Xue Yuansheng, the river god, no longer wears the attire of an old boatman, but appears in a golden body, wearing a robe and lighting water incense.

Shen Lin, the Duke of Lingyuan of Dadu, was the water god of the old Nanxun Water Palace. She is like a distant mountain hibiscus, standing gracefully at the gate of the palace, with her back facing the plaque of "Deyou Palace". Shen Lin faces the south, wishing Tongyezhou good health and good fortune.

In the territory of Yinping Kingdom, Yinhou, the Lord of Cangjun Lake, who leads a lake, three rivers and two canals. The Lord of the Lake, wearing a purple robe, stands across a Aquarius Island, holds incense in both hands, salutes Tongyezhou, and wishes in advance The land of Tongyezhou has returned to spring, and everything is brand new.

On the dense snow peak of Xiandu Mountain, Yufu Mountain from Moxiandu, after lighting incense, hopes that all the people in Tongyezhou will live well, the rain will fall, the harvest will be plentiful, and there will be good luck inside and outside.

Laoqiu Qiudu from Chilinjiang River, an old official of Dadu Dragon Palace, who is responsible for teaching etiquette and rules to dragon sons and grandsons, holds incense and murmurs, wishing Tongyezhou a prosperous future in the new year. , Haiyan River is clear, the world is peaceful, I hope that the people of the new Tongyezhou can be educated when they are young and have support when they are old.

The Daquan Dynasty buried the River Biyou Palace, and the Water Goddess Liu Rou hoped that there would be no war in Tongyezhou in the future, and that the people would be able to have enough food and clothing, and that the gods and gentlemen on the mountain should stop pretending to be superiors and speak more truth. .

Mrs. Dandan, whose Taoist name is "Qingzhong", is the co-owner of land and water transportation in the world. She prays that Tongyezhou will have beautiful wind and sunshine, and that the barns and barns will be well-equipped with etiquette.

Li Yehou, the king of the South China Sea, lit incense and hoped that the mountains and rivers of Tongyezhou would turn into spring, the people would live and work in peace and contentment, the governments of all countries would be harmonious, and the world would be peaceful and prosperous again.

The previous sect leader of the Yulong Sect and now the Patriarch of the Law, the female cultivator made a wish in the cloud, hoping that the books of all the countries in Tongye Continent would be recited, everyone would have enough food and clothing, the country would be peaceful and the people would be safe, and the people would be blessed.

According to legend, it was the woman in the small wine shop at the alchemy furnace of Taoist ancestors. The great demon of the old throne looked up and took the newly admitted disciples to Qiuhe Po Ganzhou. Together they picked up water incense and prayed for Tongyezhou to say goodbye. The old welcomes the new, the wind and rain come, the harvest is abundant, and the country is peaceful.

Aquarius Island is crossing the Changchun Marquis, and the water god Yanghua lights the water incense. He silently thinks in his heart that all things are prosperous and the people are loyal and filial, which will lead to good times and good years.

Mr. Qinhu of Nantang Lake burns incense and prays with pious thoughts. May the grains in Tongye Island be ripe and the house full of vegetables.

The Tiaobo River has been renamed and promoted to Laoyu Lake. Cen Wenqian has been recorded in the Changchun Marquis Mansion and the Dali Imperial Court, and has been officially promoted to the Lord of the Lake. After fasting, Cen Wenqian lit a stick of water incense and saluted from a distance. The mountains and rivers of Tongyezhou, I wish the mountains and rivers of the southeastern boundary of the vast world can be far away from disasters and be prosperous and healthy.

In addition, there are Baopingzhou Qidu and Libo, and the old Qiantang Changcaoyong. In Huangting Kingdom, there is Wu Yi, the founder of Ziyang Mansion, the eldest daughter of Lao Jiao. The old iron bank is the god of river water and has high brew. Baihu River Water Goddess, Xiao Luan... appeared one by one.

The sky above the capital of Aquarius Island imitates the white jade capital.

At that time, Cui Chan and others borrowed the natal characters of "mountain" and "water" from the sages. The character "山" is the natal character of the Grand Ceremony Wine of the Academy of Rites.

As Chen Ping'an guessed, the word "water" borrowed from his senior brother Cui Chan was of course the senior of the dojo who wrote an article "Asking the Sky" in Shujian Lake.

Four chapters, including "Mountain Ghost", "She Jiang", "Dong Jun", and "Calling Souls", were all handed over to Literary Saint.

This old gentleman is not within the cultural context of the Confucian Temple and is independent. Therefore, this old master's stick of "heart incense" will be the most effective stick of water incense in the world.

It seems that this old gentleman is responsible for finishing the lighting of incense by the water gods of various continents.

The scholar also invites you to come into your dream and borrow the Wan Zhong Mountain with you.

When you think about the six meridians and the gods, you cross the sea and think about the mountains. I am the host.

Beiyue of Aquarius Island, Wei Bo of Piyun Mountain. The king of Zhongyue Mountain is Jinqing. Nanyue female tigers, Fan Junmao, each lit a stick of mountain incense to pray for Tongyezhou and eliminate disasters.

Zhongtu Divine Continent, the Jiuzhen Immortal Pavilion in the Dayong Dynasty. Immortal Yun Jie and Taoist companion Wei Zi, in a broken blessed land overrun by barbarians and inhabited by ghosts, shared incense and worshiped Tongyezhou.

In Suishan Mountain in Zhongtu, the god is named "Big Jiao". The tiger travels around, showing a majestic golden body, facing the southeast direction of the vast world, holding incense in both hands.

One of the two mountains of Juxu Mountain in Dayue, it is a real person on the land of Niaoju Mountain and a Taoist priest.

Gong Xinzhou, the old mountain god of Torreya Mountain.

Aquarius Island. Wei Wei, the god of Dieyunling Mountain, Douyan, Fenshuiling Mountain, led two mountain temples to accompany the goddesses, facing the south, and together they offered incense from a distance.

The last person who seems to be the final "mountain fragrance" for the world's mountain heroes turns out to be Chunyang Taoist Lu Yan, whose "real body" is in Aquarius Continent.

In the corridor on the top floor of the Demon-Suppressing Building, Xiao Mo and Qing Tong bowed to the Chunyang Taoist next to them to express their gratitude. Lu Yan smiled and bowed in return.

The incense is curling up and the stars are dotted.

The trickling water merges into a river. The accumulated soil forms a mountain, and the wind and rain stir it up.

The Holy Master looked at the figures that were gradually disappearing, stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Go back and ask the Confucian Temple to record them and this matter in their books."

Chen Ping'an couldn't say anything about it.

The Holy Master asked: "Do you have any merit left in your hands now?"

Chen Pingan nodded and roughly estimated that there was about 30% left.

"The thunder is loud, and the raindrops cannot be said to be small. To be honest, it is already a big weather, and it has completely solved Tongyezhou's urgent need. This may sound ordinary, but in fact it is not easy. Just like you pure Wu Fu, when he took a breath of true energy, it was not an act of taking medicine to hang his life, but he came back to life completely."

The Holy Master turned to look at Chen Ping'an and said with a smile: "But if it ends like this, won't you think about it again in the future and inevitably regret it once?"

Chen Pingan was puzzled, what else could he do? Is it possible that the Holy Master is willing to help bridge the gap and give the remaining three successful virtues to the gods of mountains and rivers that he is not familiar with?

The Holy Master smiled and said, "I have misunderstood. First of all, it is no longer appropriate for me to get involved in any specific affairs. Otherwise, it will definitely not be a good thing for the world. Besides, is my face so worthless? I need it." How shameless would it be to go out in person and knock on the doors of every house for you, asking them if they want to do this business with you? How would that be inappropriate?"

Chen Ping'an became more and more confused as he listened, and had to wait for the rest.

The Most Holy Master did not show off, and said with a smile: "It's not that one family doesn't belong to the same family. Although several of your senior brothers from the Literary Saint lineage have very different congenital temperaments, there are always a few things that are particularly in tune with each other."

"The first one was Qi Jingchun who entrusted Bai Ye with the matter. Then it was the people on the Sword Qi Great Wall who entrusted Chen Qingdu with the matter. Then it was Jun Qian who entrusted Jing Sheng Xiping with the matter before going to Qing Ming Tianxia. Finally, it was Cui Chan. ... He didn’t say anything, but everyone in the Confucian Temple understands what he means.”

"Actually, it's the same thing. Give all their merits from the Confucian Temple to my junior brother for disposal."

The Holy Master patted the young man on the shoulder, "So, in addition to being given hope by others, it is a thing that makes people feel that they will not be alone. Then walking with others and walking on the road must be the same."

Not only these senior brothers, I believe that my husband's close disciples and their junior brothers can become the mainstay of the literary saint lineage in the future and will protect the path of my husband's future disciples.

It is a kind of understanding between brothers who are direct descendants of the five literary saints, without the need for verbal communication.

Maybe we have all been disappointed with the world, but we are all willing to put hope in the world.
