Sword of Coming

Inside a tall building in Chishui City.

Cui Xun, who is the Grand Master of Da Li, has shelved three flying sword summons tonight and never paid attention to them.

Cui Dongshan walked slowly along the edge of the circle of the golden thunder pool, with his hands behind his back, and asked: "What is the meaning of what Zhong Kui wrote? What did Ruan Xiu see?"

Cui Chan asked a few questions before casually dismissing Cui Dongshan, "Do you think I am the Taoist ancestor? All the final truths deduced require a large amount of information collection, and this bit of common sense is gone?"

Cui Dongshan said even more, "I'm bored. Let's find something to talk about. Are you serious about it?"

Cui Han received another extremely concealed flying sword. It was exactly the same as all the flying swords before. It did not fly from the sky above Shujian Lake. Instead, a spring first appeared in this high-rise building, and then the spring water gurgled. , a flying sword came through the air, and then the spring disappeared.

This is naturally one of the top secrets of the Dali military, and it has cost a lot of efforts of the Dali Mo family monks, and of course an astonishing amount of fairy money.

Cui Zhang still did not open the flying sword and said slowly: "People-oriented, let's not talk about ghosts and ghosts first, is the height that an academy saint sitting in a continent must have, and then he has to think about the world and the relationship between 'human beings'" External matters. This is higher than the knowledge of a gentleman. A gentleman only needs to benefit a country and then go to seek a continent. Therefore, the foundation of a gentleman lies in people."

Cui Chan added: "Chen Ping'an came up with the scope of this circle. He didn't talk about knowledge and knowledge, but only the size. The rest is similar to Wei Liang, the governor of Qingluan Kingdom, who proposed that the laws of the world must be people-oriented. This means that It is not applicable to talk about human laws to all the mountain spirits and ghosts."

Cui Dongshan asked: "That's why you regard Wei Liang, a disciple of Legalism, as half of your own comrades?"

Cui Han nodded and said: "Before reaching the end of the road, we can still reach the same destination through different paths, and it can complement the theory of meritorious service."

Cui Yi turned his head and said with a smile: "By the way, why didn't you ask me to help cover up the weather at the ferry before? Aren't you afraid of attracting unnecessary attention?"

Cui Dongshan continued to walk in a circle along the golden thunder pond, and said casually: "No, after all, it is something that we can all figure out, let alone the height where the old scholar participated in two debates on the three religions. Chen Pingan's knowledge , can’t scare people to death. What can really scare people to death are the old scholar’s ​​words that directly frightened the golden body of the Buddha’s spiritual platform and the pure state of mind of the Taoist true spirit.”

Cui Chan seemed to agree with this statement, "Chen Ping'an was walking halfway up the mountain, holding a lantern in his hand. The light was flickering, slightly illuminating the surrounding paths. You and I don't count. It won't be of much benefit, so it's a pity that only those who can see it can see it. There are just two people, Zhong Kui and Ruan Xiu."

Cui Dongshan stopped, glanced at the landscape painting spread out on the ground in front of Cui Han, and said with a smile: "The rest of the people saw it and thought it was just an eyesore, and couldn't understand it at all. But it was okay, they took a look. Half-understood, that is, the left hand in the upper semicircle is getting more and more guilty. Chen Ping'an can see through the way people's hearts are in the world. Gu Can, that porter monk on Qingxia Island, what do you think they will do if they see it? It will only make them more irritated. So. It is said that life is destined to be sad and joyful, and at least half of it is right. It should be like an ant wallowing in the mud, and it will be like this for a lifetime. People who can climb out of the cesspool when they see a little light will naturally climb out and shake. After being covered in excrement, he changed from a muddy leg on the outside to a handsome young man in mind, like that Lu Baixiang."

Cui Chan's expression was calm and leisurely.

The old fox and the little fox, who were "one person but separated from each other", had a gentle chat from beginning to end. The implication seemed to be that they had a tacit understanding, and they were trying to keep Chen Chen down, intentionally or unintentionally. The height and significance of that ferry circle.

The next two were speechless.

Cui Chan began to open the four messenger flying swords one by one.

Since the amount of fairy money required to support such a flying sword "wandering between the gaps in the long river of time" is extremely huge, the length of each thing explained in the letter is usually not long, and the wording is as concise and to the point as possible.

This is also one of the results of Cui Chan's focus on managing the redundant directions of officialdom after becoming the Great Li State Preceptor.

Try to speak words that everyone can "understand" among the civil servants and generals of Dali.

Cui Chen seems to be dealing with busy government affairs.

Cui Dongshan was so connected that he recited a sentence silently in his heart. Once, an old scholar and a great Buddhist disciple who traveled far and wide were discussing Taoism in private, and they mentioned a "big talk".

"My heart is bright, what can I say?"

After Cui Chan handled all military and political affairs in an orderly manner, he replied to the letters one by one.

Then Cui Chan sat silently, immersed in his mind with the method of inner vision. The "Cui Chan" Yuanying sat on the ground in the natal acupoint, reversed the trajectory of the straight line of the ferry circle, and became the Taoist ancestor. The yin and yang fish pattern painted in the human world.

Then he reached out and waved his sleeves, gently pushed the circle aside, and then looked at the original circle again, and saw that it was cut into six large pieces of territory. Six pieces, Chen Pingan mentioned at that time that he never looked from high to low, but It's going in a circle, that is, it can only be divided into left and right, moving mountains and seas, and moving people's hearts. This is called endless reincarnation!

Cui Han's inner soul Yuanying, the more he looked at it, the colder his face became.

Cui Zhang suddenly pulled out his mind, opened his eyes, and quickly made a secret with two fingers in a big sleeve, starting with the word "Yao".

Sometime thereafter.

"Cui Dongshan!"

"Cui Chan!"

An old man and a young man shouted each other's names almost at the same time.

Cui Dongshan quickly took out the time travel picture he had shown to Pei Qian and spread it on the ground.

Cui Chan quickly came to the edge of the golden thunder pond in Cui Dongshan and said in a deep voice: "Only pick out the pictures of the person named Yao at the head of the Long Kiln! All of them!"

Cui Dongshan became angry and said: "That old man Yang is even more of an old bastard than you! He must have deliberately hidden all the traces of Yao Yaotou and concealed it from the public. Our previous unintentional deduction was simply for Old Man Yang. Brought to the smelly ditch! This damn thing must be a deal between Old Man Yang and Yao Yaotou! Cui Chan, you and I are not allowed to make wedding clothes for others. I, Cui Chan, can be a Confucian Those who are forced to death by their cultural background, those who are crushed to death by the general trend of the world, but absolutely, absolutely, must not die of stupidity!"

Cui Dongshan was so anxious that he didn't care about his slip of the tongue when he called himself "Cui Han".

The more Cui Dongshan thought about it, the crazier he became, and he started to curse: "Is Qi Jingchun blind?! Isn't he so good at chess that even the Lord of Baidi City regards him as his opponent? In the first fifty-nine years of Lizhu Cave, let's not talk about it, Qi Jingchun He was only disappointed, but after he decided to put the most important part of his disappointment on Chen Ping'an, why did he still ignore it? Let it go and turn a blind eye?! I'm talking about Buddhism, as the one who collects the three thousand years of rent from Lizhu Cave. Existence is definitely not that simple! Maybe that ascetic is just a cover-up!"

Compared to Cui Dongshan who was furious, Cui Chan was much calmer and asked: "What are the real names of the two flying swords on Chen Ping'an's body before the names of the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month?"

Cui Dongshan frowned and said: "I only know that the one named by Chen Pingan as the first grade of junior high school belongs to Huang Tingguo. After the old scholar's mountain and river scroll appeared cracks, the old scholar walked out of the scroll and gave it to Chen Pingan. The second one was given to Chen Pingan. Flying Sword Fifteen, it is Old Man Yang, this ten thousand-year-old bastard who has lived almost as long as that stinky cow nose in Donghai, asked Chen Pingan for some worthless junk, and in exchange, he took the initiative to give it to Chen Pingan, Yang The old man said he would call him Shi Fifteen, and it was obviously a bullshit name he just made up in accordance with Chen Ping'an's change of name for the first year of junior high school."

Cui Zhang lowered his head and stared at the fragments extracted from the picture of the horse in the long river of time using a unique secret method.

Cui Dongshan pointed to the outside of the building and cursed: "Qi Jingchun opened his eyes and went blind. Did the old scholar also go crazy?"

Cui Chan said calmly: "Who put all the effort into asking Chen Ping'an to study Buddhist scriptures?"

Cui Dongshan spat hard towards the outside of the golden thunder pool and flew towards Cui Han's head, "Get out of here, you didn't set up this situation to harm our master and disciple. I will let Chen Ping'an read through the Three Religions and Hundreds of Religions." Those serious ones at home?”

Without raising his head, Cui Zhang waved his sleeves, and the spittle hit Cui Dongshan's face.

Cui Dongshan wiped his face casually, angrily, still cursing heaven and earth.

After watching it for the second time, I saw all the scenes about the "Old Man Yao" in Chen Pingan's mouth.

Cui Chan said softly: "Don't forget, there is also the 'Yao' locust leaf that Qi Jingchun helped to beg for. There are so many ancestral locust leaves in a locust tree, but only one fell." The long river of time, cut it out and let us take a look."

Cui Dongshan did as he was told.

Cui Dongshan is never awkward or pretentious when it comes to really big things.

In the scroll, after Qi Jingchun got the only locust leaf that was willing to leave the branch for Chen Ping'an, he quietly turned his head and looked at the highest point of the locust leaf with a sarcastic smile.

Qi Jingchun took this look.

But it happened to be when the two of them "overlooked" the painting many years later, the three of them looked at each other as if they were separated by a long river of time.

coincide?

on purpose?

Cui Dongshan was horrified, and Cui Han's face was gloomy.

Cui Dongshan murmured: "Is Qi Jingchun laughing at the short-sightedness of those ancestors with the surname Huaiyin, or is he laughing at the two of us because we can't guess what he is doing? Or is it both?"

Cui Chan remained silent.

Slowly consider and calculate this matter in your mind.

Cui Dongshan sat down on the ground and howled: "What on earth have we done? Old bastard, you are higher than me in cultivation, older, and have eaten more weights! Why don't you tell me? I'm feeling stuck now. I'm so panicked, just like my husband is now so heartbroken that he can hardly write on the other side of the ferry, I'm also tired now and can't scold you anymore."

Cui Chan pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Cui Dongshan scratched his head with both hands, "It's a hard life. The teacher is worried, and the students are also worried. We don't share the blessings, but we share the difficulties. We can't get through it, but we can't get over it."

Cui Zhang suddenly laughed, "You are more afraid of Qi Jingchun than me, so I know that at the beginning of the break, you hoped that Qi Jingchun would be dead more than I did. But now, have you changed your mind? I hope that Qi Jingchun is dead." Can the ghost linger again?"

Cui Dongshan was speechless.

Cui Han pointed at the horse drawing and said, "Put it away. It's useless to think about it too much. It doesn't make much sense to guess Qi Jingchun's intentions now."

Cui Dongshan moved his buttocks and came to the side of the horse racing picture little by little. He slapped Qi Jingchun's face on the picture. He still couldn't understand his hatred and slapped him twice, "Is there any junior brother in the world who plots against my senior brother like you? Huh? Come on, come out and speak if you can, and see if I don’t have a good talk with you..."

Cui Chan said: "Don't you think it's embarrassing?"

Cui Dongshan put away the horse racing picture angrily.

Cui Chang changed the subject, "Since you mentioned the fight, do you still remember that there was a quarrel between the Buddhist and Taoist families? After the old scholar returned to the school, he was not very happy. Instead, he rarely drank. A few of us lamented that back then, those people who were unknown in the history books, met the most holy teachers and sages on the road, and they dared to argue with each other, and they were not afraid. When he realized what he had learned, he laughed loudly and argued loudly. I remember clearly that when the old scholar said these words, his expression was generous and he was even more fascinated than when he was debating Buddhism and Taoism. Why is this? ?”

Cui Dongshan said angrily: "The old scholar's heart is as high as the sky!"

Cui Chan asked a series of questions in one breath, "Why is it easier to read and write now than in ancient times, but people in the world are more and more in awe of hundreds of saints and sages' teachings? Confucian disciples can actually I feel that my knowledge must not be higher than that of the sages and sages, and that people today are destined to be inferior to the ancients. Why is it that with more and more knowledge in the world, the minds of future generations are getting shorter and shorter?"

Cui Dongshan sighed, "Probably as life gets better and better, we will become more and more slow towards the world, just like those aloof gods back then."

Cui Chan narrowed his eyes, "For us, as long as we survive the next catastrophe, isn't this a good thing?"

Cui Dongshan's face was stiff.

Cui Chan sneered: "Repent?"

Cui Dongshan was trembling all over.

This is unprecedented for the young man in white who has been heartless and lawless all day long.

Cui Chan suddenly stood up and said, "You have found a good gentleman. Others, for example, 99% of the stuff in this Shujian Lake, will be given the same nose as that stinky cow and thrown into the long river of time in the Lotus Flower Blessed Land." Go, let alone three hundred years, even if you show them three thousand years, you won't see any flowers."

Cui Dongshan asked doubtfully: "Why do you say this? Every time you say something nice, I get scared."

Cui Yi looked at the moonlit lake outside the building, "Nowadays, there are many affairs in Dali. It is impossible for me to receive the most important Feijian message here every day. It will delay the real important things for you and me. I am different from you. This hurdle, Chen Ping'an If you can't get through, you will be implicated, and I will be invincible long ago. Therefore, the priority between you and me is not without reason. "

Cui Dongshan didn't seem surprised by Cui Han's departure and didn't say much.

Cui Dongshan's eyes rolled quietly.

Cui Han turned his back to Cui Dongshan, "I advise you to show some courage and don't think about doing some shameful tricks while I'm away. If you do this, I will be very disappointed in you."

Cui Dongshan, who was sitting on the ground, gently waved one sleeve as if "sweeping the floor".

Cui Chen said: "While I haven't left yet, if you have any questions, ask them quickly."

Cui Dongshan was not polite and asked immediately: "Is it really up to Liu Laocheng to kill Gu Can? You don't care?"

Cui Han shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with the dead end anyway. I'm not Chen Ping'an. Why do I care about the life and death of a young boy? If Gu Can is beaten to death, Liu Laocheng still has to do business with our Da Li. It's nothing more than It’s just Liu Zhimao replaced by Liu Laocheng. Look, even the surname is the same. In fact, it’s better this way. Liu Zhimao himself can’t convince the public. Shu Jian Hu Yexiu’s style of acting is contrary to the officialdom of the decadent dynasty. It’s nothing Different. It would be better to change to Liu Laocheng. This person knows the general trend better. It will be very smooth to cooperate with our Dali in the future. He will not be like Liu Zhimao who is very likely to get stuck in the quagmire. After getting benefits, he will be powerless to do things. , it is easy to be a coward, and maybe it gives Liu Zhimao the opportunity to sit on the ground and raise the price. So even if Liu Laocheng becomes the king of the world and waits for a price, asking for a higher price, Da Li will inevitably cut more meat in the early stage, but in the long run It seems that Da Li can still make money back."

Cui Dongshan quickly asked, "What if, I mean what if, Qi Jingchun is really haunted and he comes after you leave?"

Cui Han replied: "Of course I have a backup plan. In the darkness of Shujian Lake, just like the Lizhu Cave, the Taoist school has left Master Lu there. I am not you. I can do what I say. . Don’t guess, once you cross the threshold and don’t follow the rules, I also have other back-ups that can be used against you.”

Cui Dongshan remained silent, this time waving his sleeves to sweep the floor.

Cui Chan said with emotion: "The virtuous and unworthy people are just like rats. They are in their own place. Rats will never know that they are stealing things by moving food."

He turned his head and asked with a smile: "What about us humans? The Tao is immortal. If there is an unknown existence higher up, and it is looking at us, what are we humans doing?"

Cui Dongshan muttered: "Ask me what to do when you have figured it out for a long time. Isn't it just because we have to figure it out that we chose to do that thing. Therefore, among the four people in the Ouhua Blessed Land Picture Scroll, Zhu is the most interesting one. Only when you are restrained can you watch the fire from the other side and come to the correct conclusion, saying that you and I are the ones who see the fish in the abyss, which is unlucky."

Cui Han smiled, "I'm afraid that you will become the next Gu Can and be forgetful."

Cui Dongshan rolled his eyes.

Cui Han smiled and said: "Qi Jingchun and I, Li Zhudong Tian, ​​Shu Jian Lake, both times were gentlemen's disputes."

Cui Dongshan looked strange.

Cui Chan said: "You are doubtful, which means that I have had self-doubt this time. But I tell you now, this is a gentleman's dispute."

Cui Dongshan asked again, "Qi Jingchun can just watch Zhao Yao switch to other cultural backgrounds. After all, he is within Confucianism. Qi Jingchun can also leave three books to Song Jixin to explain the essence of Legalism to Song Jixin. After all, Confucianism and Legalism The dispute is not excessive. But if Qi Jingchun pushed Chen Pingan into Buddhism, what would happen if Chen Pingan never looked back? Even if Qi Jingchun was in Lizhu Cave Heaven and thought deeply about Buddhism, I don’t think he really I have no doubt that I have escaped from Zen. So, to Qi Jingchun, is Chen Ping'an the younger brother? The preacher and protector of Li Baoping, Zhao Yao, and Song Jixin? Or is he the real incense inheritance of Qi Jingchun? A person?! Or, simply nothing?"

Cui Chen chuckled and said, "I don't know."

Cui Dongshan murmured: "I knew it."

Like an elder giving guidance to a younger generation, Cui Chan said to Cui Dongshan: "Little bastard, don't say 'I give up' to others in the future. A person's spirit is easy to fall but hard to lift. People who play chess must admit defeat in their hearts and throw the pieces on the chessboard. That’s all, who would say that I would admit defeat?”

Cui Dongshan's enthusiasm waned, "Stop dictating to me, we are no longer the same person."

Cui Zhang did not put away the scroll on the ground, and naturally left it with Cui Dongshan. He finally smiled and said: "You should sigh with emotion at this moment, my husband has a lot of worries."

Cui Dongshan did not refute, but instead agreed: "The green mountains look so charming from a distance, but it is difficult to walk in the middle of the mountains, and there are even mountain thieves on the road."

Cui Chang took one step forward and disappeared in a flash like passing through a door.

After confirming that Cui Han had really left, Cui Dongshan raised his hands and rolled up his sleeves, revealing a chessboard and two cans of Caiyunzi in front of him.

Sitting upright, with a solemn expression, he was serious about his work.

Played backgammon.
