Sword of Coming

Previously, Cao Ci took his two newly acquired disciples and entered the territory of Daduan Dynasty via the palm-printed ferry. During this period, they entered Yunzhuang County. When the ferry docked, Cao Ci got off the boat in advance and took them to explore the mountains and rivers on foot. The Dou family is the sky of this ancient county. It just so happened that the two senior sisters are here now, so Cao Ci wanted to let the two apprentices get to know the elders of the same sect. Because the old man of the Dou family is going to celebrate his ninetieth birthday. Cao Ci calculated the time and still had some spare time, so he thought of letting Ji Jie and Bai Yu slowly strengthen their bodies on this stretch of road. They had been recognized on the ferry earlier, even if Cao Ci thanked the guests behind closed doors, without saying anything. Those who knocked on the door only said that there was an endless stream of people walking in the corridor outside to "watch the excitement". Cao Ci was really annoyed. He himself didn't care, but the two disciples had already been undecided. After a few days, I felt an unavoidable sense of alienation from him, my master, and it was no longer the state of mind I had when I first met him.

At the beginning of boarding the ship, they were pure-minded, lively and free-spirited. They practiced whatever Cao Ci taught them, and each of them became more pure and light in their boxing, which is a good sign. After they roughly understood the weight of the name "Cao Ci", their fist intentions began to stagnate. The same pile boxing move became extremely heavy after learning and practicing it again, as if every punch was weighing down a "Master Cao". kindness" weight.

The two children became more and more silent and reserved. Now when they looked at Master Cao Ci, their faces and eyes changed.

Fear it like seeing a ghost. Respect it like meeting God.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Cao Ci simply pointed out what should have been said when he arrived in Daduan capital. Since they had become a master, they would have to know some things sooner or later, so Cao Ci neither deliberately exaggerated nor deliberately concealed it, so he told the two children roughly who their master was and who their three senior brothers and sisters were. identity.

Probably because he felt that it was not good to keep his newly recognized "Master" in the air like this, Bai Yu timidly asked: "Master, since our sect is so powerful and you are so famous, even the gods on the ship are vying to see you. On the one hand, speaking a few words is like getting rich, so have you never lost a fight with someone?"

Cao Ci smiled and said, "I haven't lost for a while, maybe it's because the master doesn't ask people too many times."

Ji Jie asked curiously: "Does Master have any opponents that he thinks are very powerful?"

Cao Ci nodded and said: "Of course there are. Let's not talk about the older generation of grandmasters. Just talk about those who are about the same age. There is a pure martial artist named Chen Ping'an. He is the same age as me and seems to be a few months younger than me. His His boxing skills are very good. In addition, there are seven or eight people who I have never met, but I have heard that they are one or two levels different from me. I believe that their future martial arts achievements will be very high."

Cao Ci's so-called one or two realms, of course, has regarded the three levels of the end realm as the same realm.

Ordinary martial artists, if they say that those who are lower than themselves will have high martial arts achievements in the future, they will inevitably be suspected of being self-important or arrogant. It is estimated that others will feel uncomfortable and a bit resentful after hearing this.

But when Cao Ci said it, the speaker was calm and the listener was willing to be convinced.

I remember that Chen Ping's birthday is May 5th, while Cao Ci's birthday is February 2nd, so he is three months older than Chen Ping'an.

"If he can concentrate on practicing martial arts, I believe his boxing skills will be even higher."

"It's just that he has many identities, so I can't help him relax."

"There are actually many more rumors and deeds about him in the world than me. He is a big celebrity. When you arrive in the capital and settle down there, you will hear more and more about him in the future. Generally speaking, people with great reputations tend to It’s actually hard to be good under the circumstances, Chen Ping’an is different, he is worthy of every identity.”

"People who are both talented and willing to work hard are often high-spirited. Such people are not discouraged when they lose. They become more courageous the more frustrated they are. It sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult."

"His boxing style is complicated, but the key is to be able to master it, and it can be melted into a furnace, which is Wude... so-so."

Listening to Cao Ci's eloquent words, the two children looked at each other a little strangely.

In the past, except for imparting boxing techniques and explaining boxing principles in a strict manner, the master was usually not so talkative.

Therefore, Bai Yu and Ji Jie felt that this guy named Chen Ping'an was not simple except for his average martial arts ethics.

Cao Ci is indeed a very boring person.

He doesn't talk much and has few friends. He doesn't like drinking or socializing. Besides learning boxing, Cao Ci's only interest is reading.

And he usually only reads one kind of books, counting.

It was the first time for the two children to be apprentices. It was not the first time for Cao Ci to be a master, so he wanted to use the help of traveling together to visit the great mountains and rivers to ease the complicated mood of the two direct disciples.

People who learn boxing take their master's status and ancestral boxing techniques too lightly. They are prone to have a vain mind, are not good at learning skills, and rely too much on themselves and external objects other than boxing techniques.

But if it goes to the extreme, it is not a good thing for Wufu to take both of them too seriously. It is easy to underestimate himself and regard the word "I" too lowly and too lightly.

Along the way, we saw many different scenery, but Cao Ci spoke little. He only talked to the two children about the customs and customs of various places.

In his spare time, Cao Ci would take out three old and yellowed pictures. They were drawn by his own hands when he was practicing boxing at the Great Wall of Jianqi when he was young. They depict the muscles, tendons and bones of the human body, as well as the acupuncture points and organs of the body. The route of Qi and blood flow. Let the two disciples observe the three scrolls so that they can have a more intuitive feeling. There are various annotations and small auxiliary diagrams written in small capital letters in the blank spaces of the scrolls. In fact, Cao Ci still has a few volumes, but he is just worried that he will bite off more than he can chew. , it was not taken out in one breath.

Few martial arts masters may have imagined that martial arts can also be related to mathematics, academic calculations, and organizational structure. It even involved the Taoism and Dao marks of the Xian family.

This is Cao Ci's unique understanding of martial arts. For example, the memory of the muscles in the whole body is a dry river bed waiting for a mouthful of pure Qi to flow like a flood at any time.

To use an analogy, if saying that fists are like arrows is a description of ordinary martial arts masters, then Cao Ci's fists are like bed crossbows.

At the top of the city, Cao Ci and the boss Sword Immortal were neighbors, and the latter would occasionally tell Cao Ci some of his experiences. For example, the end is a static temple on the top of a mountain. The degree, and the arrival of the gods, is a complete "shinto" that walks from the mountain gate into the main hall to offer incense. Reversely, if you want to reach the end, you have to go to the "mountain top" step by step. This is naturally a "long journey", and the "golden body" is the prototype of the god statue that the temple will enshrine in the future... Therefore A clay bodhisattva not only has to cross the river, but also to go up the mountain. The martial artist's breath of pure true energy is like a stick of incense.

It's a pity that whenever Cao Ci raises questions, the boss sword fairy always prevaricates them with the excuse that he is not a martial artist.

The three masters and apprentices came to a waterside ferry today, intending to cross the river by boat. There were hawkers selling river fresh food on the bank, and they smelled like fish.

When she really learned boxing, her five senses became more acute, and Bai Yu pinched her nose vigorously.

The little girl had an experience earlier, saying that the scene of heaven and earth is like a painting that catches the eye. Before learning boxing, it was a fake. After learning boxing, the picture gradually changed from blurred to clear.

Their master said at the time that this metaphor is very vivid, but it may not be appropriate.

As for what is inappropriate, Cao Ci did not explain in detail.

Bai Yu asked a question that had been curious for a long time: "Master, is talent more important in learning boxing, or is hard work more important?"

Cao Ci replied: "It's all important. You Ma Shibo have made no comparisons. Martial arts training is a hungry man who cooks rice and eats. He has no talent, and he can't get in through hard work. It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and her achievements are limited. Such as the ceiling of a house, the height is very low. With talent, if you don’t want to practice boxing diligently, even if you have a granary and a big pot, you cook rice in small pots and eat in small bowls every day, your martial arts achievements will not be too high. "

Ji Jie asked more and more curiously: "Master, do you have what you are capable of today, do you rely on talent or hard work?"

Cao Ci said frankly: "I practice boxing fairly diligently, but in the final analysis, I still rely on talent."

The two children looked at each other, one happy and the other sad, Pianpian felt that he was very similar to Master, and Ah Xian felt that he had become a peerless master, and it was probably useless.

Cao Ci added: "Warrior Golden Body is an obvious watershed. Before that, talent and hard work are both important. After that, talent is more important."

The little girl grinned and said, "After all, talent is the most important thing."

Cao Ci smiled, "Another Uncle Liao said that learning to work hard, first of all, prevents oneself from taking the wrong path, and secondly, you can go faster on the right path. Isn't it an invisible talent?"

Ji Jie asked suspiciously: "Master, there are not one man and two women who are of the same generation as you. Where did you find another uncle?"

Cao Ci smiled and said: "I forgot to tell you that the masters and uncles in the rivers and lakes and the mountains say that both men and women can be called. The heaven and earth, the king, the master, and the scholars are used to calling their mentors and respected seniors as sirs. In fact, some scholars A woman who is very big and has high morals will also be respected as a gentleman, and the weight will be even more important."

They suddenly realized that they remembered that at the martial arts gym in their hometown, the owner also accepted a female disciple, but he was scratched all over the face by his wife that day, and the owner did not dare to fight back from the beginning to the end.

Bai Yu asked: "Why is it their reasoning. Master, you don't have your own theory?"

Cao Ci said: "Learning boxing to me is a daily routine like breathing. Naturally, I can't explain any major principles. Before accepting you as apprentices, I didn't think about boxing principles, and now I'm trying to make up for it."

After a pause, Cao Ci said, "If you want to learn the kind of boxing theory that is qualified to write down on paper, I can introduce someone to you in the future. He is better at it."

He once had four sparring sessions with his first disciple, and it must not be too much to ask him to talk about boxing theory with his two personal disciples later on.

Bai Yu asked: "Master's friend must know a lot about boxing, but his fighting skills are average?"

Cao Ci said helplessly, "You can't say that."

Ji Jie said: "It's that Chen Ping'an who is as good as a martial artist, isn't he?"

Cao Ci suppressed a smile, "It's fine for us master and apprentice to talk about this kind of thing in private, but don't say it in front of others."

Standing by the water, Cao Ci suddenly asked: "Actually, master has also figured out a boxing principle, do you want to listen?"

The two children nodded in unison.

Cao Ci pointed to himself, "This human body, the heavens and the earth are clear and harmonious, I am the master."

"This kind of martial arts state that seeks from within, I describe as the number one person in the world who does not need to seek from outside."

Speaking of this, Cao Ci added with a smile, "This kind of great truth, let's forget it."

Bai Yu said: "I sound confused, but it sounds domineering."

Ji Jie exclaimed, "No wonder Master is so powerful."

The little girl bumped her elbow into the peers beside her, "Stupid Ah Xian, did you remember?"

Ji Jie nodded and said, "Remember it. Listen to the emperor's imperial decree."

Cao Ci couldn't help laughing.

After getting on the boat, business was deserted and there were only a few passengers. There was a thin girl singing with a good voice by the window on the boat. Next to her, there was a man playing the erhu. He would stop from time to time to correct the flaws in the girl's singing. It was probably the kind of rural grass-stage troupe. Business, making money by playing tricks.

Cao Ci ordered three bowls of shredded pork noodles with pickled mustard. Sitting at the next table was a kind-faced but official-looking old man, accompanied by two capable followers. He sat upright, with a straight back, and his eyes often wandered around the cabin, wary of assassins.

The old man probably regarded the gentle Cao Ci as a scholar and took the initiative to invite him to share the table with him. Cao Ci wanted to decline politely, but seeing that the two children were really bored, he agreed. The old man was quite talkative, and Cao Ci happened to be not very good at socializing, but he was a good listener, so he was a good match. The old man said that he had been in high and low officialdom for most of his life. He was often released as a local official, and his favorite thing was traveling on rivers and boats. It is even more leisurely to retire and return to one's hometown now, especially since the eunuch's purse is still abundant.

The old man laughed and said that there are only four seasons in a year. There are bitter heat in the hot summer and severe cold in the midwinter. An old man like him who is dying has little and weak Qi and blood, so he is boiled day and night.

Cao Ci always nodded with a smile.

After getting off the boat and walking for a while, Cao Cicai told the two apprentices who were guessing each other's identity. The old man was actually a mountain god who traveled around with an ultimatum. Only with a high official status could he manage the mountains and rivers.

The people over there were also guessing about Cao Ci's identity, but they misunderstood that he was the kind of Taoist who practiced immortal magic. He was possessed of Taoism, traveled up mountains and rivers, traveled all over the country, and could get away with strange things.

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun is like a ghost hanging from a mountain.

I saw a mountain god, and I had seen a lot of gods earlier on the Xianjia ferry. I also saw ghosts in the dilapidated ancient temple in my hometown.

The two children have mastered the martial arts, which is equivalent to entering the martial arts world. Even if there is no light to illuminate the road, walking at night is still not a big problem. Cao Ci told them that when they were walking at night without a moon, they would often see ghosts holding fires in cages and holding fires on ancient roads without a moon, so even ordinary people in the market, unless they were weak in body, weak in spirit, and insufficient in yang energy, would Otherwise they are invisible.

That's what I said, but the night walk in the mountains, the sounds of the falcons chirping, and the wooden guest chirping, it was really intrusive, and both children got goosebumps.

Suddenly, I met a huge mansion among the gloomy hills, which looked like a princely mansion.

The master and apprentice either went back the same way, or went to knock on the door to stay overnight.

Before Cao Ci knocked on the door, he asked Pianpian and Ah Xian to put away their fists as much as possible.

The door was opened by a kind-hearted old servant. When he saw the two children beside Cao Ci, the old man wanted to refuse, saying that his wife was a widow here and it was not suitable to entertain guests.

Not far behind the old man, there appeared a pair of siblings who were four or five years apart in age and had somewhat similar features.

There are many red tapes and rules in a famous family. For example, children are not allowed to wear silk, damask and satin clothes, which will ruin their fortune. Therefore, they wear common clothes all year round and only wear remade old clothes.

And A Guan is a kind of respectful title for the servants to the master's children. It's just that this pair of wealthy siblings who were supposed to be well-fed and well-clothed looked a little sallow and emaciated, and their faces were dull.

The girl tightly held her brother's hand, not daring to look at Cao Ci and his party.

According to the customs here, there is an ancestral sacrificial book, the types of dishes, the arrangement of incense candles, etc., are clearly stipulated. When a girl reaches the age of fourteen, she has to dress her maid, wear a red dress, and go to the ancestral hall to pay homage to the portraits of her ancestors, which means that she can talk about marriage from this day on. The old man claimed to be the gravekeeper, who knew how to make bricklayers and carpenters, and came here to help with repairs. The gravekeeper was the dedicated tombkeeper of the big family, responsible for the servants and their family members who managed the ancestors' tombs. The relationship between the two parties was as close as relatives. .

Cao Ci took his disciples to spend the night here, rested all night, and had nothing to do all night, Cao Ci turned on the lamp to read at night, and set off before dawn, and left the huge house together with the two sleepy-eyed children.

When the dawn was about to appear, the two children found that on the road behind them, there was a woman holding an umbrella, bringing her sister and brother who were glowing with divine light, saluting with them from a distance, and soon disappeared.

Bai Yu asked softly: "Master, the whole house is full of ghosts, right?"

Cao Ci nodded, "That's why I told you to hold back your punches earlier, so as not to run into them, otherwise you would not be visiting them for a night, but seeking revenge."

Ji Jie asked curiously, "What's the matter with that lady saying goodbye to us?"

Cao Ci explained: "Ghosts cut off the incense and offering sacrifices, just like people who are hungry. They can easily lose a little of their true spirit, and either turn into ghosts or be scattered. There are three solutions, the best, of course, is to practice Taoism, But this needs to pay attention to the opportunity of the immortal family, and then eat incense, offerings, big families and small sects, all need to worship ancestors. Then it is to absorb the yang energy of living people."

Hearing the words, Ji Jie was terrified, and widened his eyes and said, "Master, are you alright?"

Cao Ci smiled and said: "We lingered in their house for one night, our own yang qi condensed, we are warriors, this loss is nothing, but it is enough to help the owner of that house avoid the worry of having no food for many years. "

The so-called "many years" is actually a hundred years.

Bai Yu said: "Understood, the old uncle declined us to stay overnight, because he was afraid of harming our two children, the elder sister showed up with the little official, because they were really hungry, and they were too embarrassed to say so, right? ?Master, just pretend that you don’t know anything, deliberately don’t tell the truth, and borrow our place to stay for a night, so that people and ghosts live in peace. "

Cao Ci rubbed the little girl's head and said, "Smart."

Ah Xian let out a wow, "Master, you are too kind."

Pianpian said, "I don't have a master's wife yet, so it can't be justified."

Ah Xian said: "With the master, can the master's wife be far behind?"

Cao Ci smiled and reached out to hold the two children's heads.

It seems that being a master is indeed quite interesting.

After such an incident, the two children became close to Cao Ci again.

Nearing the destination, a young woman came. The two children looked at each other. Could it be that the future master's wife was here?

Of course not, the woman is Liao Qingao, one of their three uncles.

Liao Qingao smiled and explained: "Senior Sister Dou is very busy with the family, and she really can't get away, so she asked me to pick you up."

Cao Ci nodded, and introduced the two children beside him with a smile, "Senior Sister Liao, they are the apprentices I just accepted, Ji Jie, nicknamed Ah Xian, Bai Yu, nicknamed Pianpian. When I first met them, they were already It is rare to have the intention of boxing. They can use what they have learned now and use it now, or even turn it into their own use. In a rural temple Yes, I have seen their moves, and they are impressive."

Liao Qingao was greatly surprised, because except for the senior brother Ma Guixian, the three of them had not accepted a disciple so far.

Senior sister Dou Fenxia is lazy. Her mantra is to find a good family and marry her as soon as possible.

Liao Qingao felt that she was not good at boxing and was not qualified to teach boxing to others, as she was afraid of misleading others.

Liao Qingao didn't think it was surprising that the two children had such a "realm".

The disciples you Cao Ci accepted must be monsters among geniuses? Is it reasonable?

Liao Qingao looked at the two slightly cautious children and said with a hearty smile: "It happened unexpectedly. I didn't prepare any gifts. I owe you."

Both children timidly called out to Master Liao, one with a low but steady voice, the other with a loud but trembling voice.

Liao Qingao thought it was funny and asked, "Do they know who Cao Ci is?"

Cao Ci nodded and said: "When I came here, there was a lot of movement on the ferry, and there were many visitors knocking on the door. After Pianpian asked, I gave a general overview of our sect, who is the master, and what do the three uncles do?" About the ten realms of martial arts, I also talked about it."

For the two rural children, there is only a general idea that Master Cao Ci may be a powerful figure, and they worshiped this Master and hit their luck.

For example, when I heard the name "Cao Ci" in the dilapidated ancestral temple, I immediately lost my ferocious arrogance. In the palm print crossing, I was completely taken aback, especially when the gods gathered together. On the Xianjia ferry, there was an endless stream of visitors. Looking at the eyes of these two country children, they had everything from envy to flattery. Bai Yu and Ji Jie are young and don't read much, but they have good intuition and have a little knowledge of people and the world. They are all in their hometown and have seen some of them.

If Cao Ci was just an ordinary powerful master, going out together would be full of novelty, like traveling in mountains and rivers.

But when the image of Cao Ci becomes more and more important, as big as heaven and earth, covering all things, the children will move farther away from home and become more homesick.

Fortunately, Cao Ci was careful and patient. He deliberately abandoned the Xianjia ferry and took them on a long hike to visit the scenic spots and historic sites.

Liao Qingai half-jokingly said: "Should I ask the senior sister to make a show, let the Dou family open the ceremony door to welcome the distinguished guests, and set up a battle? I believe the old lady Dou will be very happy."

Cao Ci shook his head.

Liao Qingai asked: "Worried about taking the lead?"

Cao Ci smiled, but still didn't say anything.

He did not have any official status in the Daduan Dynasty.

Just like Cao Ci has no nickname so far.

The Dou family was in Jixiang Lane, and there was a lot of traffic, and there was an endless stream of congratulatory guests. Many cars lined up in the nearby Vineyard Street and Haier Lane.

Knowing that Junior Brother Cao Ci didn't like the noisy way to interact with others, Liao Qingao took them through the crowded gates and chose a relatively quiet side gate.

A beautiful woman with snake hair in a bun walked over quickly, reached out and rubbed her cheeks with her palm, and apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry, I've been dizzy from busy work these days, and I laughed so hard that my whole face is covered with tears." It's almost stiff. Knowing your character, you don't make a big show of it. At this moment, apart from the old man, there are only a few uncles in charge at home. I know you will come to the door today. If you are not willing to socialize, I will just find an excuse to push you away. Now, if you don't reject it, you can at most go to the grandfather's study and sit there for a while, then you can deal with it."

The Dou family is a family of officials and officials, and Dou Fenxia has been fascinated by it since she was a child. What is meant by being able to get along is the wine that no one dares to persuade you on the wine table. Anyone who wants to propose a toast to you has to prepare a draft in advance.

She didn't think Cao Ci needed to sell anyone's face. Not only the Dou family of Yunzhuan County, but also the Daduan Dynasty, and the whole Haoran world is no exception.

Cao Ci said: "When Mrs. Dou is free, let someone notify me, and I'll go to visit. As for socializing in public, drinking at banquets, forget it. I'm not good at it."

Liao Qingao's face turned gloomy for no reason, and she sneered: "You are better than that man named Chen in everything, except in dealing with people, socializing and banquets, speaking in public, and drinking in public, you can't compare with him. Ha, Grandmaster Chen, Chen Jianxian, Chen Shan Master, Chen Yinguan, with a lot of titles and identities, you have to know how to behave in order to have this family business."

Cao Ci smiled and said, "I'm only slightly higher than Chen Ping'an in terms of martial arts, it doesn't mean I can beat him in other places."

If he hadn't left the Great Wall of Sword Qi too early, and could have waited until Chen Pingan opened a wine shop there, Cao Ci, although he didn't like drinking, would definitely go there occasionally to cheer.

Back then, when Cao Ci went to the Great Wall of Sword Qi for the first time, Master did not arrange any guardians for him. Pei Bei just joked with Cao Ci before leaving, now that you are away from home, people will say that you are Pei cup apprentice. I hope that one day in the future, Master hopes that when people talk about Pei Bei, they will say that she is Cao Ci's master.

Earlier in the Confucian Temple, Chen Ping'an and Ma Huangxian had a questioning match. The two sides of the competition, or their respective divisions, had a tacit understanding and did not disclose the matter afterwards.

Pei Cup's nominal big disciple, Ma Huangxian, was once at the top of the mountain, and was only one step away from reaching the end, but because of that punch, he fell down.

Dou Fenxia, ​​who wears her hair in a chignon, was born in the Yunzhu Dou clan, the number one wealthy family in the Daduan Dynasty.

Liao Qingai, born in Shanzawa Yexiu, practiced martial arts halfway, joined the army, risked his life on the battlefield, but was rescued by Pei Bei.

Because Liao Qingai once dabbled in spiritual practice, she had quite aptitude for spiritual cultivation, and she had entered the middle five realms when she was a girl, so even though she is half a hundred years old, she still has the appearance of a girl, with a very thin waist and a long white sheathed sword. Dou Fenxia and Liao Qingai are now pure warriors in the bottleneck of the remote world.

There are no more than five masters and apprentices.

From the outside world's point of view, is it impossible to have a limit of five?

Liao Qingai said indignantly: "How did the news of senior brother's fall come out?"

It didn't make a fuss, but after all, the news was leaked and the mountain learned about it.

What she implied was probably that Chen Ping'an was behind the scenes.

Cao Ci smiled and shook his head.

Chen Pingan didn't bother to do this at all.

Dou Fenxia said: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world, not to mention that there were so many people around the Confucian Temple at that time, it was inevitable that some people would watch or listen to it and use it as a conversation piece."

Junior Sister Liao didn't really think so, she just felt angry, and she had nowhere to vent her anger. Before Cao Ci came here, the two seniors and sisters often spoke ill of that person.

At that time, before senior brother Ma Huangxian fought against Chen Pingan, Dou Fenxia used a method similar to playing a rogue, saying that she wanted to ask Chen Pingan for advice on every move and a half, not counting punches.

After all, there is a difference in the level of martial arts between the two sides. Strictly speaking, it is not fair whether to exchange lessons or ask for debts. As a result, after some trial and error, they did not get the slightest advantage from Chen Pingan, and Dou Fenxia suffered a lot. .

Except for Cao Ci, in fact, Ma Huangxian and others are not regarded as Pei Cup's disciples in the strict sense. Pei Cup has never drank apprentice tea, nor have they kowtowed to their master.

Back then, it was only the request of the old emperor Daduan who persuaded Pei Cupi to accept three more "registered disciples" with an unreasonable reason.

Thinking of something, Liao Qingai suddenly laughed. It turned out that she knew that there is a custom in the hometown of senior sisters. If a man can untie a woman's hair before marriage, it is tantamount to a private appointment for life. Taking off the red hijab is no different.

However, the senior sister took the initiative to provoke the person surnamed Chen before, and returned the color to the convenience. Of course, it was a matter of course. At that time, Chen Pingan just used his fingers to stay outside Dou Fenxia's eyebrows, condensing into a grain of mustard sword energy, which dissipated when it touched her forehead. It didn't hurt Dou Fenxia at all, it just loosened the latter's snake bun. Isn't it?

No wonder when Liao Qingai came to the senior sister's family this time as a guest, she would always see the senior sister gnashing her teeth, her pretty face icy, reminding her of the appearance of a heartless person.

Dou Fenxia complained to herself, and repeated her words, "Sure enough, there is no way to fight."

She came from the line of knife hunters.

A swordsman among Qi practitioners, a swordsman among pure warriors. Both are outliers of the same kind, and are most feared by their peers.

Just like someone in the officialdom, who is both a censor and a judge of criminal and prison cases, so due to his identity and responsibility, he is not just making trouble for his colleagues every day. If he is targeted, he will lose his skin even if he does not die.

Liao Qingai threatened that within 30 years, she must go to Luopo Mountain to ask Chen Ping'an.

Cao Ci hesitated for a moment, but chose to say in person: "Senior Sister Liao, if Master doesn't tell you about some things, it doesn't mean she doesn't know. You have to be careful."

Dou Fenxia frowned unceasingly, it was definitely not some trivial matter that made Cao Ci say something so solemnly.

Liao Qingai has both a guilty conscience of being a thief and a sense of relief that she knew it earlier. In short, her mood is extremely complicated.

Cao Ci said with a smile: "Senior Sister, it's up to you to keep your sense of proportion. You really have a clear conscience..."

Dou Fenxia quickly glanced at her junior sister's belly, and asked tentatively, "Qing Ai has a private life with someone? In a fit of anger, master plans to expel Qing Ai from the school?"

Liao Qingai blushed and glared at the outspoken senior sister.

Cao Ci said: "I plan to go to Aquarius Island in the near future and visit Luopo Mountain."
