Chapter 1098: Family Reunion

Bai Yujing, the highest point.

The young Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown is lying on the railing, squinting and smiling. Anyway, he is idle, so it is better to sit quietly and watch the world. In the eyes of the sisters and sisters on the twelfth floor of the five cities below, at least they can still follow Fairy spirit touches the edge.

Lu Chen looked towards a high city palace. There was someone who received a decree to teach the Dharma. He had just set off, and Yu Feng came to the Shangqing Pavilion to meet Lu Chen. Some immortals had already keenly noticed the trajectory of this person's "ascension". I am quite envious of this person's fortune. After all, it is a great honor to be able to climb to the twelfth floor of the Shangqing Pavilion overlooking the entire five cities. Lu Chen waved at the blue figure, and said with a smile, "Yang Xiaotian, this way."

The young Taoist fell to the ground lightly, stood in the corridor, respectfully, and had a door-to-door quiz with Lu Chen, "Yang Ningxing of Lingbao City, I pay my respects to Headmaster Lu."

Lu Chen smiled, waved his hands and said: "Excuse me, excuse me, how many times have I said it, just call me uncle. Since you and Chen Pingan are good friends who are called brothers and sisters, then you are best friends with me, and there are no outsiders here. , show it to someone politely, isn’t that the reason?”

This Yang Ningxing was born in the Yunxiao Palace of Chongxuan Department in Luzhou, Beiju, and came to Qingming Tianxia through Wucaitianxia. After reaching the sky in one step, he entered Baiyujing and became the registered disciple of Senior Brother Yu, and Lingbao City was also Senior Brother Yu's. Therefore, Yang Ningxing is now practicing in Lingbao City. Although she is young, her seniority cannot be higher.

Yang Ningxing still lowered her head, "Don't dare."

Lu Chen scolded his face and said: "Senior nephew, don't be like this, it will be boring. It's the black-clothed scholar who plots against Chen Ping's time and time again, he's cuter."

Yang Ningxing raised her head, hesitated for a moment, "I don't know if Master Lu summoned the junior today?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's nothing serious that you think, I just want to take you to see the scenery together, and fulfill my duty as an uncle."

Although Yang Ningxing was confused, she didn't dare to ask more questions.

Lu Chen stretched out his fingers together, and flicked Yang Ningxing's fingers at the center of Yang Ningxing's eyebrows. In an instant, the latter's eyes turned golden yellow, and Yang Ningxing felt dizzy. The weather was shaking, but he still couldn't help shaking his head slightly, put the back of his hand against his forehead, and pressed the railing with his other hand, finally stabilizing his body, Lu Chen smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, I will help you temporarily open your eyes." , I can borrow a little vision from Bai Yujing, whatever I see, you will see."

Sure enough, as Zhangjiao Lu said, Yang Ningxing found that what he saw right now was "Yang Ningxing".

Lu Chen turned around and looked at a tall building. In Baiyujing, there is a reputation of "planting green peaches against the clouds at the edge of the sky". A group of green phoenixes soared in the clouds and mist, and the Taoist officials were in the forest, with blue faces.

Lu Chen wanted to see the scenery of the world, but it couldn't be simpler. With his own realm and the geographical advantage of being in Baiyujing, he could have a panoramic view of the people and scenes in the world, and even the details, as if they were close at hand. But to find a certain person and find out the whereabouts of the other person accurately, especially those who are proficient in concealing the secrets of the sky, it is not like looking for a needle in a haystack, and taking the initiative is futile, but it is quite difficult and extremely strenuous, and Lu Chen He is notoriously lazy, and besides, there is a viewing tower in Bai Yujing, which is responsible for watching the movements of monks on a mountain top in the world, but it is not without flaws, there are endless tricks of deception in the world, mysterious and mysterious.

Lu Chen first took a trip to the Lizhu Cave, where he had set up a stall in the small town for more than ten years. Not long ago, he took a trip to the Great Wall of Sword Qi and the Wild World. Things are becoming more and more wrong.

After that, Yang Ningxing "followed" Lu Chen's line of sight, as fast as an arrow, passing through layers of clouds, overlooking the land like a flying bird, and saw the outline of a continent, and then mountains and rivers stretching like dragons and snakes, and then a The majestic city with rich dragon luck is finally a Qingwu Temple built by the royal imperial order...

"The world, Bingzhou, Qingshen Dynasty, Qingwu Temple. The world is getting smaller and people are getting bigger."

Lu Chen shifted his gaze a little, and said with a smile, "The boy from Wuling is right here, the Taoist Cave of the Jinyu Daoist Temple. You must go to this place when you travel in the future. Rice Thief Wang Yuanlu, Martial Artist Qi Gu They all went out from here. However, Yaxiang Yao Qing is not in the capital now, and has gone to protect the couple Chaoge and Xu Jun. The Qingshen Dynasty is also one of the few places where temples are built. The purple-clothed monk with great swordsmanship is the Jiang Xiu who is now famous. Jiang Xiu's swordsmanship is so high that he can wrestle with your master. Jiang Xiu's appearance this time is due to the fate and the trend. Bai Yujing asked for an explanation."

"This is Ruzhou, Chijin Dynasty, Yashan."

"The Chijin Dynasty has a 'Master Lin' and a Crow Mountain. Its martial arts are prosperous and it is the best in the world. Immortal Lin Jiang came to our Qingming Tianxia as a guest, and I don't know what to ask for."

Hearing this, Yang Ning asked curiously: "Mr. Lu, this Master Lin, could he be a Qi trainer?"

After coming to Qingming Tianxia, ​​even in Lingbao City, where the Taoist officials are quite conceited, as long as they talk about Lin Jiangxian, they are respectful.

Lu Chen said with a smile: "In this life, Lin Jiangxian is not a Qi practitioner, let alone a swordsman, but... a swordsman?"

"Xuandu Guansun Daoist, the reason why he said 'be ashamed to live before Master Lin' is not only a kind of sympathy, but it is not a compliment, but Lin Jiangxian is really capable of fighting, very good at fighting! The rest of the world, together with the female Martial God Pei Bei of Haoran Tianxia, ​​these three world firsts have different meanings from Lin Jiangxian's number one. First, the gap between the second in the world and Lin Jiangxian is as big as the Ascension Realm and the Fifteenth Realm, and the gap between Zhang Tiaoxia and Pei Bei is far less exaggerated. "

Yang Ning asked suspiciously, "Swordsman?"

Lu Chen nodded: "Because with or without a long sword, there are two Lin Jiangxians."

"It's a pity that there are tens of thousands of martial arts practitioners in the Qingming world, and no one has ever been qualified to let Lin Jiangxian use a sword."

"Look at this Youzhou again. Every time it snows here, it always snows heavily, and this year is no exception. The snowflakes are almost as big as a fist. Have you seen the ruins of the ancient battlefield? Is the evil spirit heavy? They all rise into the sky If it weren't for the Huayang Palace of Difei Mountain, and the Hongnong Yang family, each with its own masters, guarding one side, and not hesitating to wear down the Taoism of a monk in the Ascension Realm every thousand years, there would have been turmoil by millions of Yin soldiers. It is said that A few years ago, the Yang family gave birth to a peerless beauty, who was in her twenties and eighties. Look, she is combing her hair under the water curtain. Her lazy sitting posture is beautiful, so beautiful. Look at the post again. The full arc of the spring stool... and how white the arm holding the environment is, hey, why can't I see her face clearly, Hongnong Yang's things are really unscrupulous, this is to guard against thieves!"

Yang Ningxing couldn't do such a thing. She closed her eyes, but found that it was useless. Whatever Lu Chen saw, he could see.

"Nephew Yang, listen to my uncle's teaching as a person who has experienced it. In the future, the Taoism will be advanced. Don't do this kind of thing too much. It's too disturbing. It's a big taboo in Taoism."

"Let's take a look at Yongzhou. This is the smallest state in Qingming Tianxia. It is similar to Aquarius Continent in Haoran Tianxia. Isn't this very interesting? This used to be the location of Wuzhou's Taoist temple in the early years, and now there is an additional fish charm In the dynasty, the young empress Zhu Xuan was building a great sacrifice to the heavens. On the top of the mountain range in the water, there was a temple with a long history of lotus root. Inside the temple was enshrined a godly soldier of the country, and outside the temple was an old camphor tree, which could be used for divination. The state is good or bad."

"This Zhu Xuan is really a fickle woman. When she was young, she hanged herself with a poor Taoist hook for a hundred years. She said that she would marry brother Lu when she grew up. Now she is really beautiful, but she turned her face and refused. Sigh, isn't it true that pretty girls like to talk like this, so it doesn't count?"

"Yongzhou, in Bingjie Mountain, there is a grand patriarch, Long Xinpu, who likes to spread songs and prophecies, but has always liked the prince and grandson of Xuandu Temple. He is so infatuated, he is not at all like a Qi practitioner who has proved Taoism and longevity. This Yongzhou used to be the birthplace of the rice thief lineage, but at that time, the group of Taoist priests who conferred talismans would not be belittled. There are millions of candidate Taoist officials in Luan, and this is just on the table, Yang Ningxing, do you know what this number means?"

There are many feather guests in Zhuzhou.

Qizhou, Xuandu Guan. It is also a state and a Taoist temple that Lu Chen visits most often.

Yinzhou, Liangjingshan and Dachaozong are all married in this way. That elder sister Chaoge, whose Daoist name is re-examined, is really a good match. She has made wedding clothes for others to such an extent. Xu Jun, the Taoist companion, can hope to take the lead in occupying a place among the monks in the fourteenth realm.

Yao Qing raised his head suddenly at the entrance of a heavily restricted cave in the Dachao Sect, and shook his head with a smile on his face, as if reminding Master Lu not to peep here.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became exasperated. He jumped up and cursed: "There are so many strange people in the world, so it's hard to say that only poor people will be able to eat and support themselves!"

In Youzhou, there is a purple-clothed monk who has no trace of treading snow, singing loudly, "Talk about Xuanxuan in the hermitage, talk about morality on the futon, and don't mention anything else."

As if the monk noticed the clues, he turned his head and smiled, and looked at Bai Yujing from a distance. The monk swiped casually, and the sword light between heaven and earth exploded, cutting off that line of sight on the spot.

Lu Chen clicked his tongue and said in amazement: "Nephew, did you see that Jiang Xiu's swordsmanship is very powerful, isn't it well-deserved? Impoverished people have always been very accurate! Do you believe that if Jiang Xiu uses all his strength to strike, a sword light can reach directly?" Bai Yujing?"

Yang Ning was speechless.

On a secluded mountaintop, white snow covered green bamboos, a handsome young man left the Yanxia Cave of Zhenyue Palace, he chose this place, he was eating a pot of stewed bacon with winter bamboo shoots, two women were sitting at the table, one of them had slightly dark skin, The first is a wooden hairpin, linen and straw sandals, and the other one is more in line with the appearance of a fairy in the general sense. She is dressed in a green robe and is full of Dao.

Lu Chen smiled and introduced the identities of the three to Yang Ningxing, "Little Headmaster Zhang Fenghai, Lu Bixia, of course, can also be said to be Sanxian Nie Bixia, and there is also a teacher Xingyuan."

Zhang Fenghai suddenly put down his chopsticks, wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and said with a smile, "Master Lu, I haven't seen you for many years."

After a while, Zhang Fenghai picked up the chopsticks again, apparently that line of sight had withdrawn.

The last scene in Yang Ning's vision was the Palace of Sui Chu and the Guanque Tower.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "What a 'literary' Gao Ping, a scholar talks about military affairs on paper, and a defeated general dare not speak bravely."

Lu Chen sighed, and wiped away the supernatural power that Yang Ningxing had temporarily borrowed.

Breathing the water and drinking the mountains and rivers, the spirit of soldiers is reduced to the light of the sun and the moon.

The world's engagement shop, the world's matching mountain, Cai Daohuang, known as "the old man holding the red line" by later generations, used to be in charge of a marriage book.

Lu Chen was in the Lizhu Cave, and he personally confirmed one thing, the marriage book that was "useful if you say it is useless, and extremely useful if you say it is useless" has long been out of the hands of the old man who opened a wedding shop in the small town. Not surprisingly, this matter is again the work of old man Yang from the pharmacy behind the scenes.

Half of the marriage book has long been in the hands of Liu Qi. The reason why the latter traveled to foreign lands with his friend Cao Zu, and came to Qingming from Haoran is very likely because of the remaining half of the marriage book. . Is that Chaoge? After all, the registered permanent residence of this female crown is that Chaotian girl.

What Liu Qi did was not considered a helpless act by Bai Yeqian.

The biggest feature of Liu Qi's poems is that it is a complaint for all the lovers in the world who have never become family members in the end.

So trying to use the "whole marriage book" to lead the red line for lovers in the world is indeed in line with Liu Qi's way.

Cui Cheng, a martial artist in Baopingzhou, has always regarded himself as a scholar all his life. In the end, he only accepted two disciples, both of whom were anonymous. As a result, he accidentally taught boxing and taught him two limits.

Lu Chen let out a long sigh.

If it's not because martial arts are not free, Cui Cheng has already stood up.

The sun rises and the moon sets, all are swordsmanship.

Lin Jiangxian, formerly known as Xie Xin'en, is just a pseudonym that hides the beginning and the end.

The real name is probably written on the secret file of the Jianqi Great Wall Summer Palace.

The old hermit official Xiao Xuan, the new hermit official Chen Pingan. The old criminal officer Hao Su, and the new criminal officer Qi Shou.

For ten thousand years since the Great Wall of Sword Qi, among the three sword cultivators with official titles, only the priest who has disappeared and is dead or alive has always been old and never replaced.

Noticing that Master Lu was in deep thought, Yang Ning took three steps back, slapped his head, and said softly, "Master Lu, this junior is leaving here?"

Lu Chen came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Let's go together."

Holding the railing with one hand, he climbed over, and Lu Chen went to the side of Shenxiao City.

The current city lord of Shenxiao City is Jiang Yunsheng who looks like a little boy.

The former city lord, Yao Kejiu, with the Taoist name "Biangu", failed to return to his hometown in the end.

A good flower is like an old friend, if you don't drink the cup, it will be empty, but it's a pity that an old friend is not like a flower.

On the top of the city in his hometown, a young sword repairer named Fang Ai picked up the wooden whisk handle left by Yao Kejiu.

Only he and Dong Huafu chose to stay in Shenxiao City on the twelfth floor of the five cities, and the other seven sword cultivators scattered into the other towers of Baiyujing, and soon became official Taoist officials, each with a teacher.

This wooden handle is Yao Kejiu's only relic.

When Lu Chen saw old things, it was like seeing an old friend. So I often come to Shenxiao City to find that young man to drink.

At the wine table today, Fang Ai poured wine, and insisted on letting Teacher Lu, who was blushing after drinking, drink an extra bowl.

Headmaster Lu held the wine glass in both hands, turned his head, and kept saying don't pour the wine, if you can't drink it, you will get drunk if you drink any more, don't stop, enough is enough...

Come on, come and go, no matter how slow the pour is, it will be full.

Dong Huafu came here for a drink today, and Lu Chen's drink is worth some money.

As for Fang Ai and Lu Chen's pouring and blocking of wine, Dong Huafu is not surprised, they often put on this kind of virtue.

Probably just like what Chen Pingan said back then, drinking without persuasion is boring and not lively.

Of course, this is because the wine shop is jointly opened by Chen Pingan and Die Zhang, and there are not many wine tables to persuade people to drink, so how can the wine sales be good.

Lu Chen looked down at the full wine bowl, sighed, raised his head and complained: "Look, it's filled up again, don't do this again next time, or I won't come next time."

Fang Ai nodded and said with a smile, "This is not an example."

When he first arrived here in Xiaoxiao City, Fang Ai was still a genuine young man.

Lu Chen took a sip of his drink, shivered, and quickly squinted his eyes and smiled, "Good wine, good wine."

Lu Chen crossed his legs, leaned against the stone table, and asked, "Fang Ai, do you want to sit in the top spot in the city of Shenxiao in the future?"

Fang Ai said: "Become the deputy city lord first."

The implication is that of course I want to be the city lord.

As the city lord, there must be no shortage of fairy money. Sword cultivation is recognized as a bottomless pit, and the consumption of heaven and earth treasures can be piled up into mountains.

But Jiang Yunsheng has only been the Lord of Shenxiao City for a few years. In general, according to Bai Yujing's old practice, this means that the shortest period can be hundreds of years, and the longest period can be thousands of years. The city owner will not be replaced, but the deputy city owner. I'm still looking forward to it, since there is no such thing as a city lord, and as long as there are enough reasons to make the two headmasters nod at the same time, it's not impossible to add it temporarily.

Lu Chen liked Fang Ai's point of view, he said whatever he wanted, without being pretentious, and asked with a smile: "Poverty Dao has a trick up his sleeve, do you want to hear it?"

Fang Ai toasted quickly, and left first.

Lu Chen's face was full of mystery, he gritted his teeth, and only said one word: "Boil!"

Fang Ai twitched the corner of his mouth, Zhang Zhang taught you that this is not nonsense.

If I can survive for three to five thousand years, I can't be the lord of the city or the landlord of the twelfth floor of the five cities of Baiyujing.

If you really want to be sincere, let me go to Nanhua City where Zhang Zhang teaches you, and be the deputy city lord. As long as you dare to do this, you can see if I dare to be the deputy city lord.

Lu Chen asked, "Will you miss your hometown?"

Fang Ai said truthfully, "Occasionally."

Lu Chen seemed a little surprised, and said with a smile, "Just occasionally?"

The young sword cultivator nodded and said, "Just occasionally."

I don't miss it often, but every time I think about it occasionally, I miss it very much.

Lu Chen patted the table lightly with his palm, "Yes, this kind of missing is called homesickness."

Brother Yu is like a Chen Pingan who has been to Shujian Lake but never stayed in Shujian Lake.

Any quagmire of people's hearts can't keep Yu Dou. It has been so in the past, and it will be so in the future.

Lu Chen once set up a questioning situation similar to Shujian Lake for his junior brother with the Taoist name Shanqing, who used gourds to paint ladles and learned how to embroider tigers.

It's a pity that the answer sheet given by Shan Qing seemed nondescript to Lu Chen, neither like Senior Brother Yu nor Chen Pingan.

This disappointed Lu Chen, but after all, he personally led him into the gate of Baiyujing, so he just let it go, so Shan Qing, a junior, was thrown into the colorful world by Lu Chen.

Lu Chen put down the wine bowl, put one hand on the table, stretched his legs, and knocked his shoes lightly on each other, looking extremely bored.

Dong Huafu asked: "Mr. Lu, in the city, everyone said that the white bone real person who entered the candidate is one of your avatars?"

Lu Chen immediately sat up straight, shook his clothes, and said solemnly, "That's right."

Dong Huafu said: "Then can you beat Yu Dou?"

Lu Chen hurriedly took a sip of his wine while quickly waving his hands, "I can't beat it, I can't beat it, Senior Brother Yu is really invincible, and it's not just a blown name. Everyone is in the world, since they are people in the world, they can only take Wrong name, never give wrong nickname."

Dong Huafu asked: "Is Master Lu a sword cultivator?"

Lu Chen thought for a while, and he was already half of his own family, so he confessed frankly and put his hand over his mouth, "Poverty swordsmanship is not pure enough, so he can't be regarded as a real swordsman."

Dong Huafu asked again: "Apart from Master Baigu, among the twenty or so candidates, is there a clone of Master Lu?"

Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Guess."

Damn it, Pindao really can't answer every question anymore.

If Dong Heitan continues to question him like this, he will completely expose himself.

At this moment, a woman in a palace costume came slowly, smiling sweetly, but her eyes were full of tears, and she murmured: "Ruthless man, heartless man, is it okay?"

Lu Chen glanced at the woman, jumped up, put his hands on his hips, and started yelling at the other party for being too wicked, spitting everywhere, the drink just now was considered wasted.

It's just that Lu Chen's cursing words are some kind of ancient language that Dong Huafu and Fang Ai can't understand.

The woman stopped, stretched out her hand to Lu Chen, with a sad face, "Lu Lang, I have nothing to ask for personally, but to give me back my heart."

Lu Chen waved his sleeves, "Stop making trouble."

The woman changed her figure accordingly, which was described by an old Taoist priest.

Fang Ai was taken aback, as if... Daozu? !

Inside the Ancestral Hall of the Divine Firmament City, there are statues hanging on the wall.

Lu Chen rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know whether to live or die."

So the old Taoist became a middle-aged Taoist again.

Lu Chen sighed, "It's up to you if you want to fight."

It's just that Lu Chen quickly added another sentence, "Pindao will bring Senior Brother Yu again."

In the end, "this person" turned into a dull young man, and wanted to get a drink, but when he walked outside the abbot of the stone table, he seemed to have encountered an invisible wall. He bent his fingers, tapped the barrier, and nodded Said: "Lu Chen really is proficient in Buddhism."

Lu Chen reminded: "Don't push yourself too hard."

It nodded and said, "It's easy to say."

People who practice Taoism want to maintain their original mind, just like ghosts maintain a little bit of authenticity.

Whether it is a human, a ghost or an immortal, they are all like a boat sailing across the sea. There must be a ballast stone, which serves as a needle for the heart of the Tao. In layman's terms, it is an obsession. , and according to the mentality handed down by the first "Taoist" in the world at the beginning, maintaining the "nature", and extending several Taoisms of the same origin and different streams.

And this alien demon, the root of the Dao, to some extent, is that Taoist priest, or some kind of... "shadow" gathered by all those who practice Taoism!

Ten thousand years dark room, a fuel-efficient lamp.

It smiled: "You talk about your own."

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Let's continue."

Fang Ai's heartstrings were already tense, but Dong Huafu was the one with the biggest heart, and continued to ask: "There is a Zhufang Pavilion on the other side of the inverted mountain, and the inverted mountain is also Yudou's mountain seal. It's only a few steps away, why don't you go to the sword?" The Great Wall of Qi?"

Hearing this question, Fang Ai also pricked up his ears, waiting for Lu Chen's answer.

The implication of Dong Huafu's words is very simple, since you are truly invincible, why don't you go to our Sword Qi Great Wall and fight with the boss Sword Immortal, if you win, who would dare not recognize your nickname?

Lu Chen quickly poured himself a bowl of wine, he had to suppress his shock first, this question is hard to answer.

Why does this Dong Heitan always ask such tricky questions.

Lu Chen sipped his wine slowly, feeling like he could last a day with just one sip.

Dong Huafu said: "Since you don't want to answer, just drink."

Lu Chen sighed, "It's embarrassing for the boss Sword Immortal to join the Great Wall of Sword Qi."

Fang Ai interrupted and asked, "Headmaster Yu thinks that asking swords over there will not take advantage of the land, and will suffer a disadvantage?"

Lu Chen shook his head, "It's not a matter of suffering or not, if Brother Yu can't beat him, he will definitely lose."

"But Senior Brother Yu didn't go to the Great Wall of Sword Qi because he was afraid of losing. If you misunderstand like this, then you all underestimate Senior Brother Yu."

"Senior Brother Yu, all his life, he's been asking for a lost character. Hurry up and fight hard, and sincerely admit defeat."

"It's just that once Senior Brother Yu lets go of his hands and feet, and has a real swordplay with the boss sword fairy, the consequences will be too great and the implications will be too wide."

Dong Huafu asked: "Could it be possible that Yu Dou can cut through the city wall with one sword?"

Lu Chen shook his head, "I can't do it."

The reason why the Patriarch Tuoyueshan was able to do this was because Chen Qing had to hand out that sword to help Feishengcheng go to the colorful world.

Just look at how several sword immortals joined hands to move a round of bright moon and bright colors, and you can know how difficult this move across the world is.

Chen Qing was under the watchful eye of the Wild Monster Clan. To accomplish this matter, Jiazizhang did not have consideration and deduction. After all the calculations, it was all a result, which cannot be stopped.

Whoever stops whoever dies may be the exception of the great ancestor Tuoyueshan, who was close to Wenhai.

But these two, each have a longer-term plan. Impossible to make a move, directly head-to-head with Chen Qingdu.

Just like the world's sword cultivators, those with the highest swordsmanship and kendo can only reach Chen Qingdu's shoulders when standing on tiptoe, how can they fight and ask swords.

Dong Huafu hesitated for a moment, as if he had guessed what Dong Huafu was thinking, Lu Chen smiled and said: "That person, this is a good question."

Ten thousand years ago, there was a sword cultivator among the ten heroes in the world.

In the past, this person's strong swordsmanship, high swordsmanship, great killing power, strong defense, and the high rank and best of the natal flying sword are all "best"!

Lu Chen curled his lips towards the celestial demon who was sticking out of the restraint, indicating that this guy had witnessed that sword's demeanor with his own eyes.

There were a total of three main routes in the battle of ascension to the sky, and this sword cultivator was responsible for leading one route.

It smiled and said, "No, it's still dead."

Lu Chen rolled his eyes and said: "Hey, hey, pay attention and be more polite."

It smiled and asked, "Do you want to see that scroll?"

Lu Chen stood up, "Let's walk together."

It shook its head, its figure gradually dissipated, and sarcastically said: "Lu Chen, the mud bodhisattva is crossing the river, you'd better go about your own business."

In the remote area of ​​Youzhou, there is a small Taoist temple called Zhuxu Temple in the county seat.

A gust of breeze, a young Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown appeared out of nowhere on the street. The nameless Taoist temple in front of him has naturally been emptied, leaving only an empty shelf for decoration. Lu Chen looked up at the small Taoist temple. Plaques, fill in excess to make up for insufficiency, um, not bad, not bad, a bit of knowledge, at first glance it is "my" handwriting, the way to hold the surplus, and to destroy it, can avoid the regret of the dragon, the guilt of the universe . Good meaning, good omen...

Lu Chen laughed at himself, "It's just a step too late."

After stomping his feet, Lu Chen shook his sleeves, raised his hand, pinched his fingers, and began to curse, "Old Gao, Lao Gao, you are quite old, why bother to go into the muddy water, I'm really not afraid of getting lost at the end of the day, just wait , it's best to hide in Huayang Palace and be a turtle, don't be found by the trail outside the mountain, or you will be sprayed with saliva all over your face... Hey, you are really outside the mountain, old Gao, you are tall enough, Really look down on Xiaodao at all, good guy, everyone is bullying Xiaodao, okay, if you have the ability, go and fight with Senior Brother Yu, just pick up soft persimmons, what kind of heroes are you!"

Mao Zhui, a Taoist official of Zhuxuguan, has no Taoist name for now, and once served as a regular guest of the small Guanguan's meals. Just a cook, um, a master chef.

In fact, the more than 20 people in the Taoist temple, and even the Taoist temple itself, were transformed from this real man with white bones.

In this way, it is possible to deceive the sky and cross the sea, and pass the customs in a muddle.

So now the county government is full of noise, and the county does not dare to hide anything. It has been reported to the imperial court. I believe that it will not be long before Bai Yujing will receive a "purple mud seal" secret letter. Such a major incident happened within the jurisdiction, and if it is not handled carefully, it will be stabbed. How can there be such a strange thing that the Taoist master who has an official Taoist certificate just disappeared?

Lu Chen glanced sideways. The bookstalls on the street outside the Taoist temple hadn't been taken away in time. As for those books, they were all emptied, and they probably belonged to the children.

It's like leaving a letter on purpose, or a letter sent home by yourself?

Anyway, full of some not-so-friendly sarcasm.

Teacher Lu was so angry, he made himself angry, and there was no way to ask outsiders to complain.

In the heavy snow season, a flat boat stops at the middle of the slow river. There are people wearing bamboo hats and coir raincoats at the bow of the boat. It is a lonely boat fishing alone.

The fisherman is a handsome Taoist priest with a young appearance, wearing a Hunyuan scarf with a hard-brimmed round hat, and a boxwood hairpin across his hair.

A person fell from the sky, but the speed of falling was extremely slow, swaying like snowflakes, and just landed next to the bow of the ship. He spread out his palms, a piece of oily paper wrapped with sauced meat, and sandwiched a few garlic cloves.

The uninvited guest put a garlic clove in his mouth, moved a little, came behind the fisherman, raised his foot, and pointed it at the back of the fisherman's head, as if he was about to kick him.

It's just that the leg swayed for a long time, but he didn't dare to step out. He took another piece of sauced meat and threw it into his mouth. The leg landed lightly, and said vaguely: "Old Gao, isn't this inappropriate?"

The wooden hairpin Taoist who had been staring at the fishing line all the time said calmly, "Why did Master Lu say that?"

Lu Chen said angrily: "You know what to ask, you like to pretend to be a fool, and play rogue with poor people, right? Learn from your teacher first!"

The young Taoist twitched his lips.

Lu Chen was most annoyed by this guy's expression, he had to be respected and approachable, in fact, he didn't see many people in the world.

After all, there are very few people like Brother Sun in Xuandu Guan. The old Gao in front of him is not good.

Lu Chen squatted down and moved his palm.

The man said: "No, I'm afraid of being poisoned."

Lu Chen said angrily: "Why didn't you say you took an aphrodisiac?!"

The guy simply pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Lu Chen asked: "Did that fellow hide in your Huayang Palace ancestor's cave?"

"I don't understand what Master Lu is talking about."

"It's too wicked to do this kind of thing behind the scenes."

"Okay, why did Headmaster Lu scold Daozu?"

"What do you mean?"

"The Difei Mountain of the poor way is not too thin in Bai Yujing's credit book. It should have several pages. If the poor way is wicked, how many people in this Qingming world dare to claim that they are not wicked? It can be seen from this that your Bai Yujing's achievements in enlightenment are worrying, so what is the master of Master Lu who has been in charge of this world for more than ten thousand years?"

"Can you still say that? Old Gao, you are tall."

"Headmaster Lu is the one who speaks eloquently and doesn't know what to say."

Chatting like this is exhausting, Lu Chen pouted his buttocks, stretched his neck and glanced at the fish basket, the fish basket fell into the water, Lu Chen wanted to reach out to pull the rope, but was reminded by the young Taoist that his hands were hot, so he had to give up.

"Old Gao, are you catching fish?"

"Caught it."

"Besides Xiaodao, a small fish with thin chopsticks, are there any big fish?"

"Then there will be no big fish."

"Empty bait, maybe even the fishing rod will be torn off, and the fisherman's muscles will be injured. If the whole boat is overturned by a big fish again, why bother, why bother."

"Pindao is willing to give it a try. Is the big fish invincible in strength, or is this fishing line strong enough? By the way, try to see if the hook can break the big fish's mouth."

Lu Chen looked sad, and said softly: "Old Gao, listen to a word of advice, really don't do this, really, trust me once."

It was rare for the young Taoist priest to show a strange look. After a moment of silence, he said, "Lu Chen, Pindao regards you as a friend, so I waited for you here on purpose, just to chat a few words, not to listen to your persuasion, can you please tell me next time?" Say something unsightly?"

Lu Chen's legs were hanging out of the boat, and he didn't move for a while except for the sauced meat and garlic cloves. When he finished eating, he clapped his hands, wiped the board of the boat with his greasy palms, and asked, "Gao Gu, what do you guys think? Are you really afraid that Senior Brother Yu will travel far away with his sword, come to the door, and drop a head on the ground with the sword?"

This Gao Gu, with a perfect Ascension Realm, is recognized as the number one alchemist in several worlds, and one of the ten people in Qingming Tianxia.

He is also one of the most promising monks in the world to enter the Fourteenth Realm.

After the accident happened that year, this "young" Taoist official stood on the border of Bai Yujing, looking at Bai Yujing from afar.

It was a kind of silent eyes that no matter who looked at it for a moment, it would feel more permeating.

Ruthless people often don't talk much. What's more, Gao Gu is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to bring hatred into the coffin after forbearing for so many years.

Sure enough, Gao Gu nodded, and said in a calm tone: "Huayang Palace on Difei Mountain, I have dreamed of it, and I am waiting for it. I have been waiting for this day for a long, long time."

Lu Chen knew that Gao Gu's real support was not only that his cultivation level was high enough, the mountain was big enough, and his disciples and grandchildren were all over the continent.

The biggest reliance is that the world is like a big net. All the grievances and hatreds are knots. Some knots will gradually decay and disappear as time goes by, but some dead knots will only become tighter and tougher, so they will be more and more able to hold you together. It moves the whole body, and the Ou Temple is just one of them, as is the "Youth Cave" in Sui Chu Palace, and Gao Gu is even more so.

Now it's up to who will be the first to push the wall. Gao Gu? Sun Huaizhong? Wu Shuangjiang?

Bai Yujing's genealogy of Daoist officials is indeed countless, but they are just a world of mortals, deeply trapped in it, and their Dao heart is dusty, especially when the war spreads all over the world, killings occur everywhere, Taoist officials take action, damage Yin virtue, or get injured or die, and countless fall.

"What is poverty?"

Gao Gu smiled and said, "I've lived up to my crazy reputation for three thousand years."

When a ruthless person speaks ruthlessly, he never has to look ferocious, he is always so calm.

Lu Chen sighed, "Old Gao, as a friend, I have to persuade you, but you can't be angry."

Practicing on the mountain, the longer you live, the longer you live, and the fewer friends you have.

Gao Gu's young disciple, who was born in the Hongnong Yang family, is also Gao Gu's most valued and beloved direct descendant, not one of them.

The reason why he values ​​it is because of this person's aptitude for cultivating Taoism, Wen Tao and martial arts, of course it is extremely outstanding, but also because of this person's temperament, in Gao Gu's view, the most "self-like".

The old palace lord, who had no Taoist partner and no heirs all his life, simply regarded this young disciple as his own.

Lu Chen stretched out three fingers, "Somewhere in Baiyujing, after a rough calculation, you will not exceed 30%."

Gao Gu smiled and said, "So many? It's a surprise."

Lu Chen fell backwards, lying on the bow of the boat, making pillows with his hands, watching the sky full of snow.

Gao Gu said, "Lu Chen."

"Um?"

"There must be Yudou in the world, and there must be Lu Shen in the world."

"I thank you."

"Then give Pindao three knocks?"

Lu Chen closed his eyes and muttered "dongdongdong".

Gao Gu stretched out a hand and patted Lu Chen's sleeve robe lightly, "Don't be sad."

In a snowy day, a group of three walked on foot.

The first person is a middle-aged female crown who cannot see the orthodox Dharma line just by her attire, followed by a pair of teenagers and girls.

She is one of the candidates for Qingming Tianxia, ​​Ascension Realm Sword Cultivator, Baolin, and Ghost Immortal.

The Daoist who confers the imperial seals in the Qingming world needs to wear according to the rules every time he fasts for legal affairs, and he must not be overstepped in the slightest. He is just traveling outside, except for some weird personal preferences, he is often like Baolin, Wearing a traveling crown and wearing cloud shoes are the most common Taoist attire. This is the rule set by the Taoist ancestors to encourage monks to practice Taoism and establish morality, and to be clean.

Baolin has recruited two new direct disciples, both of whom are sword cultivators.

A pair of teenagers and girls who look like Bi people are named Lu Yi and Qiu Yiyi respectively.

Lu Yi asked curiously: "Master, since you want to ask the sword with that Taoist second child, it seems that the direction is wrong."

Baolin said, "I need to see a monk first."

The two disciples looked at each other.

In this Qingming world, what would a Taoist priest do with a monk?

It's just that they thought about it again, it's not a big deal, who is the master, even that Dao's second child and Bai Yujing are not in their eyes.

Lu Yi asked: "Master, I have seen that monk, we master and apprentice are going to Baiyujing, right?"

Baolin was noncommittal, just smiled and said nothing.

Lu Yi became more and more flustered, could it be that Master is going to escape into Buddhism? !

Baolin smiled and said: "Don't think about it, Master is just reminiscing about the old days."

Qiu Yuyi asked cautiously: "Master, can you not ask Bai Yujing about the sword?"

The young man coughed quickly, reminding the junior sister not to turn on any pot and carry it.

Bao Lin was not angry, and said: "From outsiders' point of view, of course I'm looking for trouble, but from my own point of view, it's something I can't avoid."

The world is impermanent, footprints come and go.

There are those who reunite and meet again, and those who end up sadly.

Yu Dou, the second head teacher of Bai Yujing, once met three close friends at the end of Yuwei, practicing together and climbing high together.

Share adversity and wealth, and prove longevity together. True words of one heart, friendship between life and death.

The four best friends have protected each other within a thousand years, and ascended to the ascension successively.

In addition to Yu Dou, there is also a grand master of talismans, a pair of Taoist couples, and a beautiful family of immortals, who are sword repairers and formation masters.

Liu Changzhou, who once called himself Taoist Taoist, is now Jiang Zhaomo of Ziqilou.

Xinglou, the master of formation, is named Tianchi.

Baolin, sword repairer.

Travel together and travel the world. The high-spirited spirit of the four Ascension Realm monks can be imagined.

In the end, only Yu Dou entered Bai Yujing.

At that time, Baiyujing was not as large as today's five cities and twelve floors, but only three cities and six floors.

Yu Dou's nickname of "True Invincible" was spread during those turbulent years. This nickname, which is more famous than Yu Dou's Taoist name, is of course not self-proclaimed by Yu Dou, but Yu Dou never bothered to deny it.

From the Ascension Realm, I want to go to a higher level and enter the Fourteenth Realm. It is both a difficulty and a concern.

Great cultivators want to cross this chasm, they can't try hard, just look at their Dao heart. It may be at your fingertips, or it may be harder than reaching the sky.

In the end, both Liu Changzhou and Xing Lou died under Yu Doujian.

Therefore, every time Baolin practiced his sword in seclusion, and every time he left the seclusion, he would go straight to Bai Yujing, and after defeating the sword with Yu Dou, he would go to seclusion again.

For thousands of years, she has asked the sword many times.

The whole world knew that she was bound to lose, even she herself knew it well, but it seemed that there was nothing else to do except this matter.

Only to seek revenge with Yu Dou.

She has an obsession in her heart, everyone in the world can kill Xing Lou, but you, Yu Dou, can't.

Because her Taoist partner, Xing Lou, is from the same town as Yu Dou, and it can even be said that Xing Lou was Yu Dou's first guide. In the subsequent road repairs, it was because of Yu Dou that Xing Lou fell twice. It hurt the foundation of the Dao, which made Xing Lou, who was dragged by the heart demon to Huawai Tianmo, when he was trying to break the bottleneck of the Ascension Realm, and a treasure on the mountain that originally belonged to Xing Lou had long been given to Yu Dou Dalian If it is not the case, even if it fails to break the realm, it will definitely not go crazy during the retreat... It can be said that without Xinglou, Yu Dou would have died long ago, and there would be no second head teacher of Bai Yujing. really invincible.

Baolin walked slowly, reaching out to catch the snowflakes falling on his palm.

Lost in the fog, crossed in the maze of the moon, the past is empty, like a dream.

The whole body is still there, deep in the chaotic mountains. Dead wood can still be in spring, and old trees can still bloom. What about the old man?

Wu Shuangjiang was right, to do something truly meaningful.

It takes three fourteenth-level monks with great killing power, and they don't care about life and death, and they are ready to go and never return, and then join hands to ask Bai Yujing, so that Yu Dou can really suffer.

When Wu Shuangjiang found her back then, Baolin could only smile wryly when he heard the words.

Where can I find three fourteen-level monks?

"This return to the Lunar New Year's Eve Palace retreat is over, and I'm done."

"What about the other two?"

Leaving aside that obsession, Baolin is not lacking in self-knowledge. Sword cultivators in the world can be regarded as a higher level, because facing other Qi practitioners, they are generally recognized as invincible at the same level. Even if there are occasional exceptions, they are just exceptions.

Only a sword cultivator at the Ascension Realm can't do that.

Wu Shuangjiang smiled and said, "This is not something you need to be distracted by."

"Baolin, don't rush to give me an answer."

"After all, letting a pure sword cultivator join hands with outsiders to ask Bai Yujing about sword is like a conspiracy. After all, it goes against the heart. When you really figure it out, you will find me next year."

"You and Yu Dou, now the mortal enemy is the mortal enemy, and the old friend is still the old friend. If you don't think about this, don't agree to this matter."

Baolin said in a deep voice: "Okay! It's settled! When I go out of this retreat, I will go to the Palace of Extinction."

But Wu Shuangjiang shook his head, "It looks like I didn't think about it. Go back and think about it slowly."

I don't want to find an ally who will defect temporarily on the battlefield.

At that time, Wu Shuangjiang showed a slightly sarcastic narrow-minded expression, which seemed to say, you can use your emotions, but don't take me for a fool.

Yongzhou border.

At the bottom of a Dadu water, there is a temple of lotus root on the top of the mountain. Outside the temple is an old camphor tree with a black fox and a black ape on it. The camphor tree is used as a dojo.

“Wonderful shrine!”

A young Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown gave a secret praise, then bowed his head and stalked, trying to sneak across Huilong Bridge.

As a result, on the old camphor tree, the black fox and the black ape stood on the branches, and began to spit at the Taoist priest. They were the bastards on the bridge back then, and encouraged them to make a bet. It does not delay the rise of their cultivation realm, but they have not been able to refine their form so far, which has caused them to become a big joke in the neighboring states. They are obviously two monks in the Jade Raw Realm, but they dare not leave the boundary of the Lotus Root Shrine and travel far away. The reason is not because they are afraid of being beaten to death, but because they are afraid of being laughed at to death.

While dodging around, the young Taoist laughed loudly, "Oh, I can't hit it, hey, I dodged again, I'm not angry..."

Suddenly began to curse, "I don't talk about the morals of the world, I don't have the slightest martial arts, and I hurt people with hidden weapons...Your uncle, what a thick phlegm!"

The young Taoist straightened his waist, tossed and turned, jumped up, and threw his fists to the sky, breaking away the spit that was as fast as an arrow.

Ruzhou is a small country.

Yingchuan County, Suian County, Lingjing Temple.

At the end of the year, it will soon be a new year, and the result is another heavy snowfall, and the earth is covered with snow.

The small Taoist temple still has a bit of a new year flavor, posting blessings, Spring Festival couplets and painted Lingguan door gods. Now the old temple master has just resigned, and the new temple master has not yet taken office. Miao Zhu Liu Fang has not dared to come to the Taoist temple to show his face recently. It was Chang Geng who was busy here with a few resident Taoists who were young and had not yet been conferred. On this day, Chang Geng climbed the Drum Tower and beat the evening drum on time, returned to the room adjacent to the kitchen, lit the oil lamp, took out a small wooden box from under the bed, took out a cotton cloth package, put it on the table, and opened it. , was a large pile of bamboo objects, Chen Cong knocked on the door, Chang Geng said to unbolt the door, the young man pushed the door open and closed it, sat at the table, and asked curiously: "Chang Bo, what are these? "

Chang Geng said with a smile, "It's commonly known as Zizi."

Chen Cong asked suspiciously, "What?"

Chang Geng explained: "Shangzhuxianong means the same as 'calculate', which means calculating. It is six inches long, counting the calendar, and six goblets are held in one hand. The number is a bit large. If you are free, you can count and see how many there are. pieces."

Chen Cong didn't bother to determine the number, but just asked, "Is it the word 'chip' for strategizing?"

Chang Geng smiled and nodded.

Chen Cong crossed his hands on the table, looked at the bamboo chips under the yellow light, and said, "Chang Bo, do you have an explanation?"

Chang Geng hummed, "The sages of heaven and earth are evil like iron mountains and stone pillars? The answer is like raising money. Although they are ruthless, those who move them are sentient."

Chen Cong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I still don't understand."

Chen Cong knew that Uncle Chang's belly was full of ink, he knew a little bit about everything, and he would inevitably speak a little sour. It was only because of bad luck and his family's downfall that he ended up in such a field. Probably this is the so-called hundred Wuyi is a scholar?

It's just a lot of things, Chen Cong wanted to get to the bottom of it with Chang Bo, he didn't want to just know what happened, he wanted to ask why, for example, Chang Bo, which book did you read your knowledge from, and whether you will have the opportunity to learn in the market bookstore in the future. When I bought it, Uncle Chang would occasionally quote the titles of some books, but most of the time he said that the books were too complicated to read and he was too old to remember.

Seeing Uncle Chang fiddling with bamboo sticks over there, often separating and gathering together, Chen Cong was not very interested, so he didn't bother to remember, and just said casually: "Uncle Chang, Guanzhu Hong is actually a good person. There is no good face here, but he treats us well. It will be difficult for the next temple master to be so easy-going, right? The new temple master, who once reigned as the emperor and courtier, will not accept the old debt, write off the old account at random, and then find A reason to drive us away from the Taoist temple?"

After all, in a Taoist temple, the status of "permanent Taoist" without a Taoist certificate is still a favorite, and I don't know how many people are greedy, every radish and every hole, everyone wants to take a share.

In the early years, including the temple master Hong Miao, there were only six "permanent Taoists" in total, because Liu Fang, who had the status of a temple priest in name, did not live on the mountain.

Chang Geng said with a smile: "One step counts as one step, and the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge."

Chen Cong said helplessly: "Say it doesn't mean you didn't say it."

Chang Geng said: "Then add a sentence, don't ask about the harvest, ask about the hard work, and don't stand still when things come to an end."

The young man was rather annoyed by these old-fashioned truths, lying on the table, Chang Geng smiled and said, "Whether you sit or not, stand or stand."

Chen Cong was silent for a long time, and said, "Uncle Chang, I actually quite like this place."

Chang Geng said: "The place is small, and the scenery is good. There is a saying in the book, which is very suitable for the occasion. Cang officials and young scholars are left and right trees, and gods and immortals are superior to flowers."

Chen Cong asked with a smile: "Chang Bo, which book is it, can't you remember it? Does this count as being too old and forgetful?"

Chang Geng said, "It's neither big nor small."

The young man laughed and said, "Then I'll add one more thing, I'll be healthy when I grow old."

Chang Geng slightly raised his eyelids, looked at this clear-eyed young man, and smiled, but it didn't change much.

Chen Cong asked: "Uncle Chang, are you still engraving seals recently? If you have a new one, show me it?"

Chang Geng shook his head and said: "Small tricks, not doing business properly."

"What counts as a proper occupation? Get fame and become an official in the yamen? Or grant a talisman, practice immortality, and become a fairy master who rides the clouds and fog?"

"If you need to seek seals from outside the seal, you should seek the Tao from the Tao. Immortal magic is just a skill, and the only way to cultivate morality is the first juncture."

Chen Cong held back a smile and gave a thumbs up, "Chang Bo, speak truth, talk empty words, this is you!"

Chang Geng shook his head, laughed and scolded a brat.

Chen Cong said seriously: "Chang Bo, I'm really not joking with you. Someday when I have money in my pocket, it will not be difficult to collect the seals and help you publish a collection of seals, but how many copies can be sold?" , I don’t make any guarantees.”

Chang Geng asked: "You like seals so much?"

The young man thought for a while, nodded, and lay down on the table again, "I like it, the base of a seal, the words are gathered together, like a family reunion."
