Sword of Coming

The old Taoist held a small snow coin between his fingers, and it dissipated little by little on his fingertips.

He stepped out of the capital city of Nanyuan Kingdom and arrived at the Guniu Mountain ruins. He was so quiet that even Yu Zhenyi, who was practicing cultivation here, didn't notice anything strange.

Outside the simple hut, Yu Zhenyi stood with his hands behind his hands under the moonlit night. The masters of the Hushan Sect and several direct disciples have been ordered by him to return to the sect and are not allowed to appear in public in the near future.

This childish-looking leader of the world's righteous path is currently wearing the silver lotus crown. This is one of the two people's covenant. After the completion of the agreement, Ding Ying will give him this Dao crown. The Dao crown is called " "Hook Shen" is the most mysterious magic weapon in the history of Ouhua Blessed Land. There is no such thing. In addition to being able to protect the body and soul of the person who wears the crown, it can also temper the body and calm the mind. More importantly, this Taoist crown can... Help find the banished immortals hiding everywhere.

Yu Zhenyi has roughly mastered the magical power of cactus to view mountains and rivers. Previously, when he was on the top of Guniu Mountain, looking at Nanyuan Capital, Ding Ying, Chen Ping'an, Lu Fang and others were the most dazzling "lights" in his eyes. Now, now With this Taoist crown, Yu Zhenyi is 90% sure that as long as he successfully escapes from the encirclement and suppression this time, all the immortals in the world will be unable to move forward.

The glazed flying sword hovered next to Yu Zhenyi.

There is also an important weapon from the Immortal family that he just got in his sleeve.

The little Taoist boy carrying the huge golden gourd on his back did not break his promise and refused to ascend. Anyone who chooses to walk down the city can get a magic weapon. Yu Zhenyi found one at the Guniu Mountain ruins that was razed to the ground. This is a jade ultimatum, which is a "text to tell heaven" that ancient emperors and monarchs offered sacrifices to heaven and enshrined Zen. However, the text is strange and there are no records from the Four Kingdoms. Yu Zhenyi knows that the answer will probably be in Jingzanglou or Jingxinzhai. These two places are very important to the world beyond the sky. The banished immortal has the best understanding.

Yu Zhenyi didn't feel much about Ding Ying's death, let alone sad. At most, he was angry that Ding Ying fell short, which made him and the Hushan Sect have to make big changes in many of their plans.

You fight against the sky, and I take care of the world.

This is the tacit understanding between Ding Ying and Yu Zhenyi, and their paths complement each other, so the two masters, one good and the other evil, the two masters who are most likely to fight life and death, privately chose to form an alliance and set up the Nanyuan situation. The difference between the two is that Ding Ying wants to kill everyone on the list except them, while Yu Zhenyi only targets those banished immortals, Zhou Fei, Tong Qingqing, Feng Qingbai, and of course the last Chen Pingan.

Yu Zhenyi began to walk under the moonlight, every breath and every breath was a practice. This was also the reason why Yu Zhenyi sacrificed his peak martial arts cultivation with great perseverance and courage.

When it comes to cultivating Taoism, the most important thing is your mind. This is the scenery that Yu Zhenyi longs for. The level of martial arts is too low, and I will spend my whole life wallowing in the mud, and those gangsters are still unaware of it. Cheng Yuanshan and his ilk are insatiably greedy, wishing that everything they could see would be in my pocket. Tang Tieyi and his ilk were greedy for power on the battlefield, and dreamed of one day having beautiful women in the country. It would be best if they could leave their name in history after death, but they did not know that they would not live forever, which was all vain. Liu Zong and his like only excel in strength and are not worth mentioning.

It's just a pity to plant autumn.

This former friend, who was close to life and death, drew the ground as a prison,

Yu Zhenyi walked in any direction, and the size of his steps was also uncertain. When he was young, he was no different from ordinary people. When he was big, he could travel more than ten feet with one step, but he never went too far in a certain direction. Sometimes he walked along an invisible road. Walking leisurely on the arc trajectory.

This scene made the meritorious generals of Nanyuan Kingdom who led troops stationed in all directions feel frightened. Afraid that he would be in bad luck, Yu Zhenyi happened to break through from his own direction. The capital was so close and could be seen by turning his head. This meant that His Majesty the Emperor had a clear view of what was happening here. Once Yu Zhenyi made up his mind to break through tonight. Who dares to be timid and avoid fighting?

No one thought it was funny that nearly 10,000 elites from Nanyuan and the capital were mobilized to surround and suppress a "child".

Who could have imagined that a battle between two masters could make the Guniu Mountain disappear. They are just flesh and blood who are proficient in battle formations and martial arts. They can die on the battlefield without regrets, but they will die like these immortal figures. At the click of a finger, under the sleeve? Maybe he died without even seeing the shadow of the other party, leaving behind a large area of ​​bones. What the hell is this? !

Of course Yu Zhenyi would not care what those Nanyuan soldiers thought.

There are only two people he really cares about now, "Tong Qingqing" who has not made a move yet. On top of the city, when she pulled out the sword from the broken mirror, Yu Zhenyi felt a hint of danger.

The person Yu Zhenyi feared more than her was, of course, Chen Ping'an, who had killed Old Devil Ding head-on.

Yu Zhenyi is not afraid of being surrounded by this large army, and he is not even afraid of Tong Qingqing fighting against him.

Only Chen Pingan and Yu Zhenyi did not dare to take it lightly.

As for why Chen Pingan did not stop himself from absorbing the spiritual energy of this place and allowed his realm to rise steadily, Yu Zhenyi was puzzled.

Could it be that he was seriously injured in the battle with Ding Ying and is now an embroidered pillow?

So Chen Ping'an's stop when entering the city was actually a trick to deceive everyone in the city?

Yu Zhenyi stopped and looked towards the capital, the outline of the city under the moon. He finally gave up the idea of ​​finding out. Once Chen Ping'an joins forces with Jing Xinzhai and Zhong Qiu, it will be the real disaster. At that time, Tang Tieyi and Cheng Yuanshan's stubborn temper will definitely turn to the wind and completely fall to Nanyuan Kingdom.

Yu Zhenyi returned to the hut, stretched out his hand, and gently wiped the blade of the glazed flying sword with his palm.

He is now able to travel far and wide with his sword like an immortal, but it is far behind the real journey recorded in the books. He cannot rise too high into the sky or ride the wind too far, which is really a pity.

Yu Zhenyi moved his gaze upwards and looked at the bright moon. One day, he would be able to wield a sword above his head in the world and overlook the mountains and rivers. The only people higher than me are the sun, the moon and the stars.

Yu Zhenyi suddenly lowered his gaze. On top of the dilapidated city in the capital that had not yet been repaired, he could not see the appearance of the characters clearly, but in Yu Zhenyi's eyes, a bright light appeared, which was extremely annoying.

Yu Zhenyi sneered: "Is this coming?"

On the top of the city, there is a young female crown with a sword on her back, sitting cross-legged on an arrow stamping, holding a steaming casserole in one hand, filled with aroma, and holding chopsticks in one hand like flying. While eating, she muttered: "Aiyo mother Hey, this thing is really delicious, but it’s a little too spicy, no, no, no, I can’t buy two bowls at once next time.”

From the city gate below, a number of horsemen galloped out, delivering a military order issued by His Majesty the Emperor himself.

Except for the large army responsible for guarding the south gate of the capital city, the Royal Forest Army and the three garrison troops of the capital city stayed where they were, while the others withdrew from their respective positions and retreated twenty miles back.

It's like making room for people.

Give Yu Zhenyi and this beautiful woman a crown on top of the city.

She was engrossed in eating, occasionally raising her head to glance in the direction of Guniu Mountain. If Yu Zhenyi rubbed oil on the soles of his feet right now, she would have no way to catch up.

Putting the casserole beside her and placing a pair of chopsticks gently on top of the casserole, Taipingshan Girl Crown Huang Ting stood up and patted her belly, full of regret, "This late-night snack was a bit too much. Ah, I must have gained two pounds. Oh, Fan Wan'er, a rice bowl? You are a rice bowl, right..."

When the three elite Nanyuan troops began to move slowly, they began to relocate.

Huang Ting, the female champion, had sharp eyes and stared at Yu Zhenyi. She wiped her mouth and said softly: "I guess I will lose weight after this fight."

————

Chen Ping'an, who was sleeping on the roof, was awakened by the huge movement outside the city. He looked up to the south and saw two bright sword lights that reflected each other.

It's Yu Zhenyi's glazed flying sword and Huang Ting's realm sword.

Chen Ping'an did not return to his residence to gain energy. Instead, he took out a sword and a knife from Feijian Fifteen and hung them around his waist. The long sword Chixin, which originally belonged to Dou Zizhi, and the narrow knife passed down from generation to generation in Feiying Castle stopped. Snow.

Sweeping away, the figure is like a misty cloud.

Zhong Qiu was already standing on the top of the city, and Chen Pingan came to the Nanyuan Imperial Master.

Chen Pingan asked: "Is there a fight now?"

Zhong Qiu nodded and said: "Huang Ting is a Taoist from your hometown, and his perception of spiritual energy is far better than ours."

Chen Ping'an said: "Does she think she won't be able to defeat Yu Zhenyi if he swallows his spiritual energy like this?"

Zhong Qiu said helplessly: "No, if that was the case, Huang Ting would have taken action long ago. According to her, she deliberately waited for Yu Zhenyi to be full before she took action, so that Yu Zhenyi would not have an excuse if he lost."

Chen Ping'an really couldn't understand the thoughts of the Taipingshan female champion. How could a life-and-death fight, such a matter of spending money and money, become such a child's play when it came to her.

On the other hand, Chen Ping'an himself, from the battle on the street, from Ma Xuan, Pipa Girl, Xiaolian'er, has been testing the depths of this world while hiding his strength again and again, to the calculation of Bird's Eye Peak Lu Fang, and finally to Zhong Qiu and Ding Baby, no step should be taken carefully and cautiously, no punch should be delivered safely.

Although he didn't understand her thoughts, Chen Pingan still admired and envied Huang Ting. If he could travel around the world, regardless of life or death, he would be so... not afraid of death.

Chen Pingan told Zhong Qiu about books about bridge construction, and Zhong Qiu agreed with a smile.

Then there is the matter about the pipa woman and the poor scholar named Jiang.

For a country's national preceptor, finding a scholar who is stranded in the capital and taking part in the imperial examination is a trivial matter. However, Zhongqiu did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked, "Are you sure you want to see that scholar?"

Chen Ping'an said: "See you or not, let's talk about it then."

Zhong Qiu nodded.

The two of them looked towards Guniu Mountain together. Yu Zhenyi and Huang Ting, the two great masters who firmly occupied the top three in the world, were fighting with increasing momentum.

Often a flash of dense sword light can be more than ten feet long, or even dozens of feet long.

Probably because he felt that the place where Chen Ping'an and Zhong Qiu stood side by side was the safest place in the world.

Queen Zhou Shuzhen, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Wei Yan, Princess Wei Zhen, and a white-haired old general, under the strict escort of the Royal Forest Guards, climbed to the top of the city and came straight towards the two of them.

Zhou Shuzhen naturally did not dare to put on airs with Zhong Qiu, and the two sides exchanged polite greetings. After Wei Zhen saw the Imperial Master, he became even more frightened. He had no choice but to do so. Zhong Qiu was one of her mentors, and the princess was the first in her life. The little girl got hit by a chessboard once, thanks to the imperial master. At that time, the little girl cried with snot and tears on her face. She found her father and mother who were playing chess. One said that the beating was good, and the other said that the beating was too gentle. After that, Wei Zhen feared the national master like a jackal, tiger, and leopard.

The old general was able to travel with these three Tianhuang nobles, so he must be the most distinguished and distinguished old man in Nanyuan Kingdom. Sure enough, when Zhongqiu saw him, he greeted him by his name: "Lu Xiao, why are you here? "

The old general was wearing a suit of armor and was full of energy. He snorted coldly: "Most of the soldiers and horses in the capital outside are good men trained by me. What if I take off my armor and return home? I can't fight in the battlefield. I admit it, but I can train troops in a uniform." I, Lu Xiao, have not lost my ability to dispatch generals! It’s enough for you to stop me from leaving the city, why don’t you allow me to watch them go?!”

The old man patted the city wall and said angrily: "You flying masters, why don't you just stop? One fight after another, the fights were so noisy that most of the people in the capital couldn't sleep well. , especially that banished immortal in white robes, who boasted so much about his gods and goddesses, that Old Demon Ding was defeated by him, and was so handsome that my two grandchildren kept asking me questions. Do you know him? One said he wanted to learn skills from Master Chen Xian, and the other said he wanted to meet heroes. I know him as an uncle. If I saw that white robe, I would definitely point my nose at him and scold him half to death. Nothing else. Say, it’s really not that good to get the name..."

Zhong Qiu held back his laughter.

The old man was so angry that he frowned and was about to curse. Zhong Qiu waved his hands and said, "Okay, the Queen, the Prince and the Princess are all here. You, Lu Xiao, just stop spitting."

The old general muffled his voice.

Chen Pingan said nothing, thinking that the old general was an upright person, but he had a hot temper.

Lu Xiao caught a glimpse of the young man's gaze, and the angry old general glared: "Boy, what are you looking at?! Dare you laugh at me?"

Chen Ping'an didn't talk back, he just took off the wine bottle and took a sip of wine.

The old general mistakenly thought that this person was from the Jianghu. Since he could stand with Zhongqiu, he was probably a young master with good martial arts skills and his character must not be much different, so he said seriously: "Boy, look at you His appearance is also a bit bookish, and he looks like a scholar at first glance. I am not relying on my old age to show off my skills. I, Lu Xiao, am very accurate in judging people. I sincerely advise you not to travel around the world in the future. I don’t expect you to go to the battlefield and make achievements. You don’t need to be shrouded in horse leather, as long as you have more If you want to learn from our national masters, of course you only want to learn from the literary saint side, not the bullshit martial arts master, what’s so good about it..."

Chen Pingan was speechless, forced a smile, nodded awkwardly, and took another sip of wine.

In addition to having a hot temper and not being nice to talk to, the old man actually has a very good heart.

Princess Wei Zhen covered her mouth and snickered.

She knew the identity of this young man. She had seen him once before at the Zhuangyuan Lane restaurant.

But Old General Lu only knew that the young man who killed Old Devil Ding was wearing a white robe and knew how to wield a sword and know magic. Little did he know that the guy he threatened to point his nose at and scold was far away and right in front of him.

Even the old general who disliked Jianghu could not help but secretly sigh when he saw the swords gleaming on Guniu Mountain with his own eyes.

But the stubborn old general did not miss any opportunity to teach the young man who had gone astray. He turned around and persuaded: "See, this is the style of a master. How many years will it take for you to reach this level? Here you go. Even if it takes a hundred years, you can't do it, right? So, I'd better give up the military and follow the civil service. If one day you figure it out and are willing to join the army, that would be better. As long as I haven't been in the coffin at that time, you can come to me and I will personally I’d like to introduce you to any elite frontier army from Nanyuan Kingdom. You can choose at will!”

The old general spoke with spittle flying around.

Chen Pingan wiped his face, sighed, and had to register his own number, "My name is Chen Pingan."

The old man laughed and said, "Why is your name Chen Ping'an? It's not about your caste. I am not familiar with any of the guys who are high officials in Nanyuan Kingdom..."

The old general suddenly stopped talking, nodded with a straight face, stretched out his thumb, and pretended to be stupid: "What a name!"

Then, as if nothing had happened, the old man silently walked to Zhong Qiu, then moved silently until he walked to the outermost side of His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince.

The old general plans not to speak in the near future, but to practice keeping his mouth shut.

Chen Pingan watched the Battle of Guniu Mountain for a while and said, "I'm leaving first."

Of course no one stopped me.

After about a moment of burning incense, Zhong Qiu saw some clues about the battle. Zhong Qiu smiled and sighed: "Before, the victory or defeat was only between 50 and 50, but now it is not as good as him."

Zhou Shuzhen can't see anything yet, and Prince Wei Yan is almost the same.

As for the old general Lu Xiao and the princess Wei Zhen, they were even more confused.

Lu Xiao wondered: "National Master, he just left like this?"

Zhong Qiu said with a smile: "As long as Chen Pingan is willing to appear at the city gate tonight, Yu Zhenyi will not dare to act too wantonly."

Having said this, Zhong Qiu turned around and sighed in his heart. Didn't he say that he would not care about anything?

————

When Chen Pingan quietly returned to the yard, it was still dark.

These days, the little lotus figure has been curled up in the golden wine of the robe, sleeping more and more soundly, and Chen Ping'an has not put on the golden wine again.

After entering the house, I found that the little guy's breathing was getting more and more steady. He changed his sleeping position, and Chen Pingan helped roll up the corners of Jinli's clothes.

Chen Pingan walked out of the house. The skinny little girl sat on a small bench and fell asleep leaning against the door. In her sleep, she frowned.

Chen Ping'an could even vaguely tell from her sleeping posture that she was wary of the world at such a young age.

Chen Pingan clenched his hands into fists, placed them gently on his knees, and waited quietly for dawn.

The old Taoist suddenly appeared and stood beside him, standing and sitting next to him.

The old Taoist got straight to the point: "Since you have carried Chen Qingdu's long qi sword on your back, I will make an exception and let you enter this lotus flower blessed land with your skin and soul intact. As for why you came, of course I am responsible. Come out. You just want me to help you rebuild the Changsheng Bridge. It’s not difficult, but nothing is so cheap in the world.”

The old Taoist pointed at Cao Qinglang's house, "I heard what you and that child said before, about the right and wrong order, so I know your relationship with the old scholar. After all, the old scholar talks about the order of things. , I am the first one in the world to know, it is a stupid account, and I have the nerve to mislead my disciples!"

Having said this, the old Taoist sneered: "So I decided to raise the threshold a little. That's why there was that siege and I asked Ding Ying to imprison that square inch object. If you are not good enough, you will die here, If Chang Qi Sword stays, I won’t embarrass you too much. At most, I’ll keep you here for a few decades. No matter how you come or how you come back, you don’t have to worry about your soul and body. If I don’t deal with the old scholar, I won’t take you. It’s okay to vent your anger, but there are still rules.”

Chen Ping'an smiled bitterly and said, "That's it."

The old Taoist sneered and said: "Later, there was an expert from the Yin and Yang family. He was quite tall. He made an ambiguous move and stepped on my bottom line. I tolerated him and didn't argue with him. But he was born with Yin and Yang. The fish-body disciple, who doesn't know the heights of the world, has possessed Fan Guan'er twice, trying to remind you and tell you how to leave the Lotus Flower Blessed Land, so I will destroy the other two magic weapons on your body."

Chen Ping'an asked: "Is it the paper town and... the Northern Jin Kingdom?!"

The old Taoist smiled and said: "You are not so stupid after all. Both of these are the work of that person, which is quite interesting. As for why he is willing to take action, have you ever suffered at his hands?"

Sweat broke out on Chen Pingan's forehead.

It's a fear that comes from the bottom of my heart.

It is smaller than life and death. Matters of life and death often happen in the moment when a knife is raised and dropped.

Chen Pingan's fear was like being in a foggy situation. If he made a wrong move, he would fall into the cliff, and then someone would stand on the edge of the cliff, watching him coldly.

that person.

Chen Ping'an didn't really remember it until now.

It was the honest man he passed by at Flying Eagle Castle last time, and the man even grinned at him.

He is also the man who sold candied haws on a stick when he was a child, that nice guy with a smile!

At the Flying Eagle Fort, Chen Pingan felt that something looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it.

What Chen Ping'an remembered was not this man's appearance, but his smile.

From Lizhu Cave to Tongyezhou.

Chen Pingan raised his arm and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The old Taoist asked: "Finally remember who it is? Have you figured it out?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "I understand why he kindly reminded me. He didn't want me to enter this lotus root paradise that he had no control over. He was just afraid of the old senior and didn't dare to act blatantly."

The old Taoist hummed, "It's a little better than stupid. In fact, you are only half right. That person has no ill intentions towards you now. Otherwise, with your luck, you would not be able to find the little Lotus Flower."

The old Taoist asked again, "I can break this situation, but others really can't? But you didn't know the truth until now, isn't it strange?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said without hesitation: "It's not surprising. If it were before, it wouldn't be surprising, but after all, it's the kind of thing that doesn't understand anything. But this time I walked down from Lotus Flower Blessed Land and contacted me twice to go out far away. You, after thinking about the people and things I met a lot, it’s not surprising anymore.”

The old Taoist nodded and said: "Then you are a little clever now."

Chen Pingan asked: "When can I leave Ouhua Blessed Land?"

The old Taoist smiled and said: "You should first ask when you can leave Nanyuan Kingdom."

This time the old Taoist did not sell out, "When things happen in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom, I will take you to see this world."

Chen Ping'an took off the wine flask and hung it in the air without drinking. He couldn't help it, so he had the courage to ask: "Why?"

The old Taoist chuckled and said, "The old man's Taoism is so profound that it's very boring."
