Sword of Coming

Chapter 288 Northbound

Lu Tai sat down on the ground, but fortunately he hadn't lost the meat bun in his hand.

After kicking me, that guy still had the nerve to smile?

You keep saying you are afraid of death, but how come you, Chen Ping'an, are not afraid of death when you are here with me, Uncle Lu?

Do you really think that my needlepoints and wheat awns are just like those discarded rouge and gouache, just decorations?

Lu Tai suddenly felt depressed because he just remembered that Chen Ping'an didn't even know about the existence of these two natal flying swords.

Lu Tai stood up, ate the meat buns fiercely, and warned: "That punch from the treasure-swallowing whale, and this kick from the ferry, twice!"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "It only takes three things."

Lu Tai said sternly: "If you dare to do it for the third time, I will either beat you to death or change into women's clothes and disgust you to death!"

Chen Pingan immediately raised his arm, put his fingers together, and pretended to swear to God, but the content of his words was, "If there is a third time, please choose to beat me to death."

Lu Tai suddenly smiled.

Seeing that Lu Tai had no intention of pursuing the argument, Chen Ping'an looked up and saw a towering mountain in the distance. Halfway up the mountain, there was a sea of ​​clouds blocking the scene, preventing the world from seeing the scenery on the mountain. It is said that there are only a few opportunities in a year. , you can get a full view from the bottom of the mountain, and a large number of palaces and palaces stand on the top of the mountain.

The Immortal Book "Shan Hai Zhi" records the Fuqi Sect. Two points impressed Chen Pingan the most. Fuqi Sect, like Longhushan Tianshi Mansion, does not belong to one of the three branches of Taoism. "Teaching", to put it simply, is similar to the Fengxue Temple and Zhenwu Mountain in Aquarius Continent. It can invite gods to the world. The difference lies in whether the person who invites people to the human world is a god or a real immortal.

Then there is the hilltop of Fujizong, which supports many ghosts and ghosts, surpassing Tongyezhou. Halfway up the mountain, there is a street called Tianjie, which is full of strange things.

Chen Ping'an has always been interested in those lively and cute quirky spirits. I just wanted to broaden my horizons in the Fuje Sect. In the past, I could only think about it in my heart, but now I am willing to do it.

Moreover, when Chen Ping'an was walking north, the sword's energy would tremble slightly, thus shaking Chen Ping'an's soul. If he walked south, the sword's energy would be silent.

This made Chen Pingan breathe a sigh of relief and walked north. At least he was getting closer to Aquarius Continent.

Lu Tai applauded the visit to Shoutian Street, saying that some of the gadgets there were not only rare and rare, but also reasonably priced. It was a must-visit place for Qi practitioners visiting Tongyezhou.

Looking at the mountain, I ran to death. I saw that it was not too far from the big mountain. I walked on foot, sometimes walking. Chen Ping'an is no longer a fledgling in the world. He looked at the mist-shrouded mountain from time to time along the way. He knew very well how powerful the Fuji Sect was. If it were placed on Aquarius Continent, it would only be slightly inferior to Shen Gaozong.

This Fuji Sect located in the middle of Tongye Continent, since it is an immortal family with the sect's prefix, means that there is at least one Jade Pu Realm cultivator, and compared to the smallest Aquarius Continent, the top immortal family in Tongye Continent is more important and background. In addition, there are Tongye Sect and Yugui Sect in the north and south, which hold the two ends of this land respectively. They seem to occupy half of Tongye Continent's fortune. Therefore, the sects that can still stand out in Tongye Continent are often the ones who kill. A powerful force that will blaze a trail of blood.

With nothing to do, Lu Tai chatted about the different customs and customs of Tongye Continent and Aoping Continent. Aquarius Continent is a small place. If it weren’t for Shen Gaozong Qizhen to join the Twelve Realms of Immortals and obtain the title of “Twelve Immortal Realms” in Middle-earth. The title of Heavenly Lord conferred by Zong did not appear to be in the Immortal Realm, so Chen Pingan saw someone offering a reward to Song Changjing, the Great Li Domain King, on the wall of the Master Sword Room. The reason was that he just felt that Aquarius Continent was not worthy of a ten-year-old being. Jingwufu is actually not funny at all.

On the other hand, in Tongyezhou, the leaders of Tongye Sect and Yugui Sect are all old bastards who have been lying in the Immortal Realm for hundreds of years.

There are two Jade Purity monks in the Fuji Sect, one male and one female. They are a pair of Taoist lovers who are envious of others.

According to legend, the reason why the Fuqi Sect has the bustling Shoutian Street is that the female cultivator in the Yupu Realm likes to raise spirits. Even though she became the Earth Fairy Queen, she was still willing to show up often and go down the mountain to collect all kinds of spirits. The head of the Fuqi Sect then He simply waved his hand and spent all his personal financial resources to build Shoutian Street, just to allow Taoist monks to be close to water and terraces without having to walk a few extra steps.

Speaking of this love affair, Lu Tai's face was full of intoxication and admiration, and Chen Ping'an looked at him with horror, because he didn't know whether Lu Tai imagined himself as the master of the Fuji Sect or a Taoist monk.

Later, probably because of the lingering sadness in his heart, Lu Tai took the trouble to talk to Chen Ping'an about the plum blossom makeup, the yellow wine dimple on his forehead, and the colors of several kinds of blush powder, even though he was currently decorated with aristocratic family members. In order, the fairies from the Middle-earth Divine Continent and the fairies from other continents have different dressing preferences. They have different preferences for those who wear heavy makeup and heavy colors and those who wear light makeup...

Chen Pingan endured it for a long time, but finally couldn't bear Lu Tai's seemingly endless "boudoir talk". He turned to this guy and said sternly: "Lu Tai, I'm begging you, you talk to me about this, I don't want to hear it." , not to mention it’s useless to listen to it.”

Chen Ping'an only said similar words to Ma Kuxuan once, and that time was during the battle between Ma Kuxuan and Ma Kuxuan.

It's just that he hates the latter. Chen Pingan rarely hates a person so much. The girl Zhu Lu who assassinated him is one, the ghost who killed innocent married women is one, and the golden-robed old dragon in Jiaolonggou is one. countable.

As for Lutai, I am still helpless.

Lu Tai raised his eyebrows, and then said sadly: "It's useless? You don't have a girl you like? If you do, don't you want her to be prettier? If not, you can at least use this to chat with others. Let's chat, do you really think fairies don't fart and don't care about beauty? You deserve to be beaten to a bachelor's degree!"

Chen Pingan suddenly understood and said decisively: "Yes! Think about it!"

Of course he has a girl he likes and wants her to be prettier... huh? No, no, Ning Yao is already the prettiest!

Lu Tai shook his head and said, "You're stupid! I guess I can't keep the girl even if I have one."

After finishing speaking, Lu Tai did not give up. He conjured up the bamboo folding fan out of thin air and tutted: "I can't keep it, I can't keep it."

Chen Pingan laughed.

Sensing that Chen Ping'an was showing signs of taking action, Lu Tai squinted and reminded, "Don't take action. You are a person who reads books every day. Even if you are not a gentleman, you are still half a scholar. We have only walked a few steps, and you can't do what was promised." What about three?”

The ferry was originally the private property of the Fuji Zong. Along the way to the top of Fuji Zong Mountain, there were many strange scenes. There were more than ten people riding on a purple python named "Purple Beard Gong", which was speeding like lightning, but the people riding on it Everyone is stable. There is often a rainbow light full of sword energy passing above the head, which is fleeting.

Having seen Old Dragon City and Daoxuan Mountain, Chen Pingan was already familiar with this.

Lu Tai explained that Tongye Sect is very different from the fragmented Aquarius Island. There are not many mountains, but many of them are giants. Here you can’t just pull a tattered flag and declare yourself the mountain king. Tongye Sect The dynasty and Jianghu, these two forces should not be underestimated.

Of course, nothing is absolute, and there will definitely be unqualified immortal sects. After all, the territory of Tongye Continent is too large. Besides, there is no mouse nest in any piece of land.

But like Aquarius Continent south of Guanhu Academy, there is almost a scene of a state-owned fairy mansion, but there is definitely no scene in Tongye Continent.

The two of them walked side by side on the side of the broad road, which was actually very eye-catching. The women passing by, whether they were immortal masters or wealthy daughters, were willing to cast curious and appreciative glances at her. They were slightly surprised, mainly due to the graceful Lu Tai. , the fairy spirit and the book spirit are all outstanding, which is very rare. Chen Pingan stands beside him, playing more of a green leaf role.

Lu Tai sighed with emotion for no reason: "Not to mention Wusuzhou, it is very powerful, with a prosperous literary style, and many immortal teachers. Especially, there is a mellow Confucian Chen Chun'an sitting in charge. The Tongyezhou under our feet has a quiet temperament, similar to a virtuous and virtuous woman, and is out of the ordinary. There is no dispute, and the location is advantageous. There are not even a few cross-continental ferries. There is no way to go to the sky or the earth, so I prefer to be exclusive. In fact, it is a huge paradise. Fuyao Island in the southwest is very lively. , There is no boundary between the mountains and the bottom. Fighting and killing all day long, the qi practitioners are very full of martial arts."

Chen Pingan suddenly asked in a low voice: "Lu Tai, what state are you in? Can you tell me?"

Lu Tai gently shook his folding fan, his temples flying, and said with a smile: "Children of the Lu family don't care much about their level of realm. They only care about how far they can see the river."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "That's not high."

Lu Tai twitched his lips and said, "Compared to the Taoist geniuses in the Middle-earth Divine Continent, of course it's not that high, but compared to you, it's more than enough."

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I know a person who is slightly older than me, a martial artist of the Seventh Realm. I met a Posuzhou swordsman who looked like a fox at the door of my house. He seemed to be of the Ninth Realm. I have two little guys at home, one. A fire python and a water snake are probably close to the sixth and seventh realms. What about you? Which realm are you in?"

Lu Tai still didn't want to reveal his level of realm, but said with a proud look on his face: "My two masters, one is a tutor and the other is a preacher, both are in the fifth realm."

Chen Pingan said oh.

Lu Tai glanced at Chen Ping'an, "What do you mean? Not convinced, or just not impressed?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "I'm convinced."

Lu Tai said with a smile: "Chen Ping'an, with your unsatisfactory behavior, do you expect to be toasted lying down?"

Chen Ping'an asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Lu Tai put away the folding fan with a snap, "After you die, someone should go to the grave to pay homage to the bar."

Chen Ping'an said angrily: "Bending your intestines."

Lu Tai laughed heartily, and then opened the folding fan, and the breeze blew. It was really refreshing in the autumn.

The two of them walked for half a day before reaching the foot of the Fuji Zong Mountain in the dusk. The name of the mountain is Chuoshang. According to Lu Tai, it means that the king folds his hands and hangs his sleeves to rule. But why does the hilltop occupied by the Fuji Zong have Confucian teachings? Lu Tai I can't tell you why. An hour later, in the dusk, Chen Ping'an and Lu Tai finally saw the Shoutian Street. It was brightly lit and as bright as day. Even at night, it was still full of tourists.

After walking into the crowded street, Lu Tai made Chen Ping'an see what it means to spend money like water, what it means to spend a lot of money and think that I am poor in the blink of an eye.

There are indeed many magical things in Shoutian Street.

Chen Ping'an was eye-opening.

Lu Tai walked into the first shop and bought two little charms that Chen Pingan had never heard of. One was named Tongzi. According to the almost flattering introduction of the shopkeeper, Chen Pingan knew that these things could be kept in the eyes of the owner. Among them, not only can you absorb some spiritual energy from heaven and earth every day, but the most important thing is that whenever your pupil sees a stunning beauty, it can help the owner "brighten his eyesight". Many Qi practitioners who practice clairvoyance and other techniques, this thing is the most important thing. It is love in the heart.

After Lu Tai spent a full eight hundred snowflakes to buy this thing, he said he wanted to give it to Chen Pingan. Of course Chen Pingan would not accept it. Lu Tai shook his head and said, "Don't you want to be able to improve your eyesight every day?"

The implication is that with me, Lutai, in front of you, and you have pupils in your eyes, doesn’t it mean that you are cultivating when you look at me?

The old shopkeeper glanced at the handsome and handsome Lu Tai, then glanced at Chen Ping'an with a playful smile.

Chen Pingan had goosebumps all over his body and pretended not to understand anything.

Compared with Tongzi who was taken into the pocket by Lu Tai, the group of lively little people next to Tongzi at that time actually made Chen Pingan more excited. They were as small as rice grains and were called "ears", which is homophonic to "son". They are a kind of life. The spirit in the ear uses the eardrum as the drum head and beats the drum quietly when the person is asleep. However, neither the owner nor others will hear it, but it can strengthen the owner's yang energy and invisibly frighten those who walk at night. Many evil spirits.

This is a kind of spirit that the rich and powerful people at the foot of the mountain must spend a lot of money to buy after they are accidentally "haunted and possessed by evil spirits".

Many Qi practitioners in the lower five realms will carry one with them if they need to walk in the mountains, forests and lakes due to their low level.

In addition to the pupils, Lu Tai also bought a spider the size of a fingernail. It was colorful and very cute, but its name was enough to make Chen Pingan stay away from it. Spring Dream Spider likes to pick and collect those beautiful spring dreams. When people After falling asleep, it can weave a small net on the owner's head, with colorful colors, and people will enjoy the golden spring night in their dreams.

Therefore, Spring Dream Spider is often used by sect gangs as a prop to sharpen the Taoist heart of disciples. It is also one of the must-have items for Taoist sects that advocate dual cultivation.

A row of small cages near the Spring Dream Spider also contains many other species of its kind, including the ink-black Nightmare Spider, each with its own unique features.

Of course Chen Ping'an couldn't appreciate this kind of weirdo.

But Lu Tai liked it very much and spent 600 pieces of snow money because he thought the Spring Dream Spider looked cute.

So the old shopkeeper's smile became even more meaningful.

Later, Lu Tai had a dispute with a monk in the fifth level of the middle school in a shop over a rare spirit. This time, Chen Ping'an didn't think Lu Tai was extravagant and thought that the twelve small summer coins were well spent. . The reason why Lu Tai was able to win was because the opponent who was bidding did not have enough fairy coins. In addition, Lu Tai was full of momentum and acted like if you are willing to raise the price, I will accompany you to the end. This made the man curse and leave the shop.

In the palm of Lu Tai's hand, he held an extremely rare mutton-fat beast, which was jumping alive on his palm. The little guy's body was made of beautiful jade, which was condensed by the essence of jade. Its body was a top-grade treasure of heaven and earth, and was used to make talisman jade. It is one of the best materials for cards, but the suet beast has a strong temperament. When it reaches adulthood, it will choose to commit suicide if it is caught, so it cannot be raised.

As for the one in Lu Tai's palm, it was accidentally captured by the monks. Because it was still young, it did not "die together", so it survived. As long as it is raised properly, it may become a priceless "living treasure", but The only drawback is that raising a suet beast is more expensive than buying it, because it only eats snow and costs money.

The shopkeeper was an average-looking woman, and she said with a smile that if the Fuji Sect had not already owned a pair of suet beasts, otherwise such a good thing would have been taken away with a heavy price on the same day.

The two of them walked around the street, going in and out,

Chen Ping'an actually had his eye on three things, but he was hesitant and not willing to spend huge sums of money.

A three-legged golden toad is one of the spiritual beasts of heaven and earth. It is said that the holder can increase his or her wealth.

A silver-white treasure-hunting rat with a keen sense of smell for spiritual creatures in the world.

There is also a little guy called the "wine bug", which can only be born from aged wine. If you put it into new brewing water, it only takes a few hours to have a mellow taste that has been buried for several years. The love of wine lovers.

Chen Ping'an didn't spend money, but Lu Tai still spent money. The dragon-bearded carp has a carp body and a palm-sized body. Although it is a carp, it has two long dragon beards. Its beards are one of the treasures of heaven and earth. It's just that compared to the two golden dragon beards that Chen Pingan made into a demon-binding rope, their appearance is naturally much inferior. However, this kind of dragon-bearded carp can thrive. Just imagine, a fairy gate can buy several After being carefully cultivated, after thousands of years, it will be a pond of dragon-bearded carps.

Lu Tai also bought a bullroaring fish, which is no longer than a finger but can roar like thunder.

Chen Ping'an didn't understand what Lu Tai was buying it for, to scare people?

Finally, Chen Ping'an saw a group of paper talisman figures in a shop at the end of the street. The prices varied and they were cut into various styles. They were roughly divided into three types according to height, one finger height, one palm height, and one arm height. They were lifelike and could be cleaned. Gardening, raising flowers and birds, helping to move books and display them, etc.

Paper figurines are quite popular in the world, especially in wealthy families. They are also divided into grades. The conduct, reputation and school of the person who drew the talisman largely determine the price of the paper figurines, and the texture of the paper also has a relationship. There are sects and businesses that specialize in making paper figurines, and the profits are extremely high.

But Chen Ping'an looked at these silly little paper figures as they were extremely fun, but he would never be tempted to buy them.

Because it is expensive and not cost-effective, it is useless to buy, and it has nothing to do with being cheap and high-quality.

However, Lu Tai bought a large pile of folded paper talisman figurines in one go, all of which were the smallest ones. Lu Tai dropped 500 snowflakes on them and put them on the table when he said he was bored. Acting in martial arts fights must be a great relief...

Chen Pingan had nothing to talk to Lu Tai about spending money.

Three or four miles further up the mountain road from Shoutian Street, there is a Xingzhi Pavilion, which means that all outsiders of the Fuji Sect stop here and are not allowed to continue climbing.

Chen Pingan walked into the Xingzhi Pavilion with Lu Tai, who had returned with a full load. Along the way, Chen Pingan couldn't help but glance at Lu Tai a few more times. He was curious about where he hid those monsters. Lu Tai did have square inches of things. , but talisman paper and talismans can still be stored in it, but living things with yang energy such as Jingmei must not be put in. If they are put in, they will explode, and may even cause the square inch to break.

After taking a short rest in the pavilion and watching the night view around Fuji Zong from a distance, the two of them returned to the vicinity of Shoutian Street to find an inn to stay. As a result, they parted ways because Lu Tai wanted to live in a place with a lot of spiritual energy and a mansion of gods. Chen Of course, Ping An can easily find an inn to spend the night.

Nothing happened all night.

It would be difficult for anything to happen under Fuqizong's nose.

The premise is not to provoke those Fuji sect disciples who have higher eyes than the top.

The two made an appointment to meet at Xingzhi Pavilion, and then went down the mountain to the north. However, Chen Ping'an arrived at the pavilion early and saw the magnificent scene of the sun rising over the East China Sea. He stayed there until three o'clock in the morning, but still there was no sign of Lu Tai. He was about to go down to look for it when he saw it. When he arrived at Lutai, he yawned and climbed the mountain. He waved to Chen Pingan and refused to move forward. Anyway, taking another step would be a waste of time. Chen Pingan sighed, walked out of the pavilion and went down the mountain with him.

Last night, Chen Ping'an was worried that Lu Tai's big deal on Shoutian Street would cause trouble, and he was walking around to hide his wealth. However, when the two of them went down the mountain and traveled six to seven hundred miles north, there was still nothing strange. Ping An felt relieved.

Chen Ping'an followed the occasional "reminder" from carrying a long sword on his back, adjusted several times, and followed the general direction. Therefore, it was inevitable to bypass the official road and travel through mountains and rivers.

Lu Tai had no objection to this, but when he encountered busy towns and restaurants and shops, he would stop and reciprocate the favor, and Chen Pingan did not refuse.

Chen Ping'an's journey along this journey was unremarkable. It was nothing more than practicing boxing and swordplay in quiet and uninhabited mountains, forests, and swamps. He never saw how Lu Tai practiced. Only when he arrived in the bustling market with busy traffic, Lu Tai would cheer up, as if he had broken into the paradise of heaven. Very excited. Over time, Lu Tai taught Chen Pingan one thing, what is the importance of rich people.

Lutai can always spend the least money to eat and drink the best. Every dish can reflect centuries of culture and bring out several literary giants and saints.

For every bottle of wine, a few beautiful poems can be said.

Occasionally, he selected an ancient book that he bought from a book store, holding the book in one hand and looking through the book in a very lazy manner, but in Chen Pingan's eyes, he always felt that this is what a scholar should be like.

As long as Lu Tai stayed at the inn, he would make himself a pot of tea almost every day. He never called Chen Ping'an to drink tea. He sat there alone, saying nothing, just drinking tea.

Calm and relaxed, full of rules and etiquette.

Chen Ping'an has seen that kind of style in Cui Dongshan when he plays music alone.

There is also a bamboo flute on Lutai, which is particularly melodious and melodious among the mountains and rivers.

Holding a bamboo fan in his hand, he sat lazily anywhere, looking up at the moon, which was also romantic.

Chen Pingan knows a saying called arty, which is very derogatory.

But Lutai is not.

Just like Chen Ping'an is a bastard at heart, Lu Tai is a born romantic with a seed for reading.

To have money is to be rich, to know etiquette is to be noble.

This is the true son of wealth.

Chen Ping'an couldn't learn from Fan Er's splendid character, and Chen Ping'an felt that he still couldn't learn from Lu Tai's freehand and freehand style.

On this day, Chen Ping'an stood on a tall tree and looked far away, and unexpectedly discovered a castle among the majestic mountains that were rarely visited by people.

Before this, the two of them had not encountered any landscape monsters along the way.

This place is thousands of miles away from the Fuji Sect, which is the largest in the central part of Tongye Continent.

Chen Ping'an originally didn't want to tell Lu Tai that there was a castle over there, and just wanted to bury his head in the road. However, Lu Tai, who had never been interested in landscapes, climbed up the branches for the first time today, shook his bamboo fan, and laughed and said: "Not bad, not bad, it's a place." It’s a feng shui treasured place to kill people, steal goods and then frame them for the blame.”

Chen Ping'an didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at first, but he soon understood it.

There were figures sneaking and rustling in the surrounding mountains and forests. Although it was hidden and subtle, Chen Ping'an had excellent eyesight and ears, and he immediately knew that this was a dumpling made for someone.

Chen Pingan looked around and said slowly: "In the four realms of martial arts, there are also two natal flying swords and several talismans."

Lu Tai had a clear understanding and smiled: "Qi Practitioner Longmen Realm, what a coincidence, I also have two natal flying swords and some magic weapons."

A man in a white robe carries a sword, and hangs on his waist a sword-raising gourd that has not been taken off for drinking for a long time.

A man wearing a green shirt is like a gentleman who keeps his jade from his body for no reason.

The two of them faced a large group of robbers who were planning to travel thousands of miles, and most of them must be Qi practitioners on the mountain.

Lu Tai gently shook his fan and said with a smile: "Before taking action, why don't you talk to them first?"

Chen Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth, patted the wine bottle on his waist, and said nothing.

All the truth to be said is here.
