Sword of Coming

Li Huai slept for a long time. The sun was so hot that he didn't want to get up. The bed was so comfortable, like sleeping in a ball of cotton. The child opened his eyes in a daze, sat up, and looked around. He didn't turn around for a while, and finally remembered that this was neither a hard bed at home, nor an open bed in the wilderness. The child's first feeling was that it was great to have money, and his second thought was that no wonder Chen Ping'an wanted to be a child. miser.

Li Huai actually wanted to go back to sleep, but when he saw that Chen Ping'an was not around and did not appear in his sight, Li Huai became a little panicked. He put on his clothes and boots neatly and went to the green bamboo bookcase to carry some colorful paintings. The puppet rushed out of the house and saw Lin Shouyi playing chess with a poor old man. Even Li Baoping, who was born with no butt, was sitting on the stone bench and paying close attention to the chess game. Yu Lu and Xie were standing Lin Shouyi was by his side, helping to make suggestions.

Chen Pingan sat across from the two Li Baoping. When he saw Li Huai, he waved. When the child ran to his side, he gave up his seat to Li Huai. As soon as Li Huai was about to sit down, he found the young man in white standing behind Chen Pingan. , staring at him with a serious smile, Li Huai thought for a while and silently placed the painted puppet on the stone bench. He stopped sitting and only dared to lie down at the table with his butt stuck out.

Cui Shan, a young man with a red mole between his eyebrows, turned to look at Yu Lu and Xie, his dark eyes like streams flowing on their faces.

The girl Xie Xie was keenly aware of Cui Han's gaze and did not raise her head to look at him. She was just confused in her heart. Usually, once the gloomy gaze of the Great Li State Master was focused on her, her skin would have goosebumps. But today It's different. It's just the sight of an ordinary master. It no longer has the same sense of oppression as before. Is it because of the warm autumn sunshine?

Yu Lu calmly raised his head and smiled at this "own master".

Cui Zhang first stretched out his fingers and hooked them, "Yu Lu, thank you, you two come over."

Then he smiled at Chen Ping'an and said, "Can you go to Zhibu Pavilion and have a chat? There are some things that need to be discussed openly and honestly."

Chen Pingan nodded, and the four of them went to the pavilion together. Before leaving, Chen Pingan patted the coward Li Huai on the head and joked: "Now you can sit down with peace of mind."

When he arrived at the pavilion, Cui Han glanced at the iron horse and wind chimes under the eaves, and said to Lu Xie: "Introduce your true identity yourself, there is no need to hide it, don't worry, there is no conspiracy, even if you don't believe me, you should always believe Chen Are you safe?"

Yu Lu and Xie looked at each other, and neither of them was in a hurry to speak.

Yu Lu, a tall young man in simple clothes, has been working as a horseman since he came out of seclusion. He is the one who helps Chen Pingan the most among the team. He was keen on washing clothes and straw sandals. When he saw someone whose clothes and sandals were stained with mud, or who had holes punctured while walking on the mountain road, the tall young man felt uncomfortable all over. He even saw Li Huai's bookcase being crooked. The arrangement of eight made Yu Lu look worried when he accidentally saw it. As long as it stops next to a water source, the carriage will be cleaned spotlessly by the tall young man.

Even Chen Ping'an felt ashamed about this. Is there such a non-stop person in the world?

As for Xie Xie, a girl with a dark face and a slender figure, Li Baoping had a childish nature for the first time. He hated her deeply and regarded her as an enemy. Lin Shouyi had an average impression of her. She was neither good nor bad. At most, she just talked a few games in his free time. Li Huai was very friendly with her, and the two were keen on the game of arranging troops.

Cui Chen said angrily: "You guys can chat openly, I will finish it later."

The handsome young man strode out of the pavilion, walked around, bent down to pick up a handful of pebbles from the ground, and sat boredly by the old well, throwing pebbles underneath and listening to the sound of water.

When he thought that he was really so bored, Cui Han's eyes were blurred, as if he was from another world.

He glanced at the dark well. It was now a real human being with the naked eye, and he could no longer see through the scene below. At this moment, Cui Chang almost wanted to turn his head and throw himself into the well.

In the pavilion, Yu Lu was the first to speak, "I am the prince of the former Lu Dynasty. Yu Lu, who used to hide among the founders of the Lu family, actually has another alias, Yu Shilu, which means I It's a remnant of the Lu family. Every time someone calls me, it helps me reflect on myself once, and the past is over."

The girl was furious, stood up suddenly, pointed at the tall boy's nose and shouted angrily: "It's over?! Your Highness, you said it very lightly, Yun Danfeng is very light, you are really more pure-minded than the monks on the mountain, but Hundreds of lives, from top to bottom of my division, shed their blood for you, the Lu family, and died for their country! How can this be done?!"

The girl burst into tears and said in a trembling voice: "Be careful with your own conscience. How many Qi practitioners in the world who have attained immortality are willing to fight and die for a country? Only us! Ever since Dongbaopingzhou has had a country, , since the beginning of the dynasty, we are the only ones in history who have refused to retreat or surrender, fighting to cut off the bridge of immortality for everyone, just to prove that your Lu family’s dynasty is upright!”

Yu Lu looked calm, "Then what do you want from me? It's true that I am the prince of the Lu family, but my father has always been arbitrary. He is just afraid of those groundless prophecies and ballads. He is worried that if the East Palace becomes powerful, he will drive me to the enemy country Da Li." I am studying in an academy. I have never been in power, nor have I ever been involved in the world of temples. I only focus on reading the books of sages. Thank you, tell me, what do you want from me?"

The girl was even more upset by Yu Lu's cold gesture. She was so angry that she trembled all over and gritted her teeth and said: "My surname is Xie, but my name is not Xie. My name is Xie Lingyue. I am the youngest Qi practitioner in your Lu family's dynasty to break through the bottleneck of the Five Realms. Sir! He is a descendant of the Xie family of the God of Wind! I hate you, the Lu family, for being stupid and mediocre, but I hate you even more for your highness, the Crown Prince, for following the crowd and working as a servant for the great enemy of Da Li Imperial Master, and yet you have the nerve to be content with it. If you The ancestors of the Lu family knew well under the spring..."

Yu Lu's face remained as usual, his tone was still calm, and he interrupted the girl's accusation, "If you, Xie Lingyue, have the backbone of a descendant of the Wind God Xie family, why don't you die? If you feel that suicide is not heroic enough, you can justly assassinate the national master Cui Yi. How wonderful it would be to die vigorously."

Yu Lu turned to look at the straw-shoe boy who was watching coldly not far away, and asked with a smile: "Chen Ping'an, can I borrow a hundred taels of silver from you? I can build a big tomb for Xie Nvxia Xie Xianzi to express my heart. Admiration.”

Chen Pingan glanced at the tall boy and then at the slender girl, "If you still want to live well, why not live well?"

Chen Ping'an thought for a while and continued: "I just said a few words about my feelings. It may not make sense, so just listen to it. If there are some accounts that are not clear for the time being, then let them go for a while. Just don't forget them. One day in the future we will be able to speak clearly and do things clearly."

Chen Pingan looked at the two noble survivors of the Lu family, one was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who almost sat on the Dragon Throne, and the other was the most talented mountain god in the dynasty. Chen Pingan knew his reasons for persuading the fight, and they might not listen at all. That's not surprising. Why should you listen to a country bumpkin who grew up in Mud Bottle Alley?

But Chen Ping'an looked at the two people who showed their true feelings at this moment. Xie Xie was no longer so cold and distant, and would cry with anger, while Yu Lu was no longer so kind and gentle, and would use words to hurt people. Although Chen Ping'an was not gloating about his misfortune, he did feel that at this time, the two guys standing in front of him had gained some popularity that he was familiar with.

Therefore, Chen Ping'an, who felt that he was the worst at reasoning, tried hard and reluctantly added: "You are much more knowledgeable than me. I don't know how you think about things. Like me, the thing I'm most afraid of is when I have some ability, and when I can decide the fate of others, I am especially afraid of things that I think are reasonable. In fact, they are not reasonable. Unless it is a last resort, such as a life-or-death situation, when I have no choice, then I have no choice. I will take action. Take action. But in other situations, don't just follow your current thoughts and be led by "what do I think?" A Liang said that you should think more about "why" for everything. I think it's very right."

"So I want to study and be literate. In fact, I know that when I was discussing teaching with Li Baoping and Lin Shouyi, or when I was practicing calligraphy with Li Huai on the ground, you two looked down on me. I want to study, and I want to be literate. To learn principles from books, I want to see more people and travel to more places, just like A Liang, who dares to pat his chest and say, I have seen more rivers than you have eaten salt. Only in this way, In the future...I just mean that if by chance, one day, I have the ability of the Land Sword Immortal from Wei and Jin Dynasties in Fengxue Temple, then I will use my sword to kill people or save people with one sword. Hand it out, it must be very fast! Or if my sword practice is not good and my boxing practice is okay, then that punch will be thrown out..."

Having said this, Chen Ping'an's face glowed, as if he was thinking of his "that day".

Draw your sword heartily and punch with great joy!

There once was a man wearing a bamboo hat who always teased Chen Pingan, "You are a handsome young man, can you smile a little every day?" Is it bad to have so many thoughts?

Chen Pingan is actually very depressed every time. He wants to tell that guy loudly. I want to too, but I can't do it now.

Yu Lu always sat where he was, Xie Xie sat back down aggressively, but he no longer had the previous attitude of trying to fight Yu Lu.

Yu Lu looked at the calm Chen Pingan, smiled and asked curiously: "Chen Pingan, aren't you very good at talking? How come you never talk about this with Li Baoping, Li Huai and the others?"

Chen Ping'an replied: "I'm familiar with them, so there's no need to reason."

The implication is that of course I, Chen Pingan, am not familiar with you, so I need to say these things.

Yu Lu was immediately deflated.

Xie Xie's face was indifferent, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but she forced them to flatten them.

Xie Xie cautiously glanced at Cui Han, who was sitting in a daze at the mouth of the well, hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "I was originally a Qi practitioner in the Guanhai realm among the five middle realms, and I was only half a step away from reaching the eighth realm, Longmen realm. But after I became a remnant, a vicious-hearted empress in the palace sent a famous sword cultivator from Dali to use a secret method to drive trapped dragon nails into several of my acupoints. It will make you miserable, and even if you try hard to cause endless troubles, you can only use the strength of the fourth and fifth realms."

After Xie finished telling these important secrets related to his fate, he stared at Yu Lu who was pretending to be mute. The latter asked: "What are you doing?"

Xie sneered and said: "Don't be pretentious here. Chen Ping'an can catch fish only by relying on his accumulated experience and relying on stupid birds to fly first..."

At this point, Xie Xie paused slightly. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that the boy who had been stabbed by him was not only not angry, but also a little silly and happy. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "But if it weren't for your martial arts cultivation, Yu Lu , if you catch those swimming fish, I will take your last name!"

Yu Lu smiled and said: "Oh, that's what you're talking about. I thought that none of you would like this trick. There is nothing worth mentioning about the martial arts world. When I was in the East Palace, because of my status as the prince, I was destined not to To practice the method of immortality, I had no choice but to look through the martial arts secrets hidden in the palace. As I said before, my father was afraid of those songs, not a son who was well-fed and struggling to get familiar with martial arts. "

Yu Lu put away his smile and laughed at himself sincerely: "What's more, others don't know the situation of Jianghu and Wufu. How can you, Xie Lingyue, not know? It's just a pond at the foot of the mountain. No matter how big the big fish in it is, how big can it be? No. Let’s talk about other things, let’s just talk about our former Lu Dynasty. There were not many monks in the Nine Realms, but there were not many martial artists in the Nine Realms. So when I started practicing martial arts, it was just a joke. You might think I feel like I am talking standing up without back pain, but I still have to say, in the dull and boring East Palace, if a lecturer accidentally farts, it is a rare thing worth talking about."

Xie Xie sneered: "Oh? From your tone, the martial arts level is not low."

Yu Lu sighed, with sincere eyes, shook his head and said: "Not high, only the sixth level."

Xie Xie's eyes showed a hint of shock, and his face was slightly stiff.

Climbing to the martial arts realm is most about one step at a time. It is often a matter of accumulation and accumulation. Most of them are late masters. Freaks like Song Changjing, the king of the Great Li vassal, have looked at the entire history of Aquarius Continent and described it as a once-in-a-hundred-year event. No exaggeration. Therefore, for young high-level monks, others will envy their talents, opportunities, etc., and call them geniuses, and then they think it is natural, because the word genius can explain everything.

But martial arts is different.

A six-level martial artist aged fourteen or fifteen.

It's a real monster!

Don’t forget that Yu Lu, the crown prince of the Lu family, lived in a privileged position in the East Palace, and it is very likely that he has never had a life-or-death battle.

Can you tell someone in the sixth level of martial arts by reading a book?

After Yu Lu saw the girl's eyes and face, he silently swallowed the words on his lips.

It’s almost time to reach the seventh realm, maybe three to five years at most.

The girl Xie Xie felt uncomfortable at the thought of being so close to a six-level warrior. She always felt that Yu Lu would violently attack her and smash her head with a punch.

Qi practitioners in the Sixth Realm can have a lot of water content, but when facing pure martial artists in the world, it is best not to have such thoughts.

Chen Ping'an stood up, first looked at the dark-skinned girl, and said happily: "Lin Shouyi is also a Qi practitioner. Thank you, girl. Although your cultivation is limited now, your vision is still there. Please talk to him more about cultivation in the future." The thing is, um, Lin Shouyi has a bit of a cold temper. You should be more patient. By the way, Lin Shouyi is soft-skinned and can't stand the hard words. Thank you, girl, for polishing him. For example, by using I think it’s good to play chess and chat about spiritual practice.”

Then Chen Ping'an looked at the tall young man and said, "Yu Lu, since you are a master of the six realms, I won't have to worry about tiring you with trivial things like washing clothes and sandals from now on. Just keep talking and take care of the clothes!"

Finally, Chen Ping'an shouted to Cui Han in the distance, "I've finished chatting with them two, you can come back. Well, in the words of scholars... we had a great time talking!"

Chen Pingan left the pavilion with a smile, his steps brisk, obviously really happy.

In the pavilion, the boy and girl looked at each other, always feeling that something was wrong, but unable to think of a reason.
