Chapter 370: New Year, New Weather
Chinese New Year's Eve wrote the Spring Festival Lian for the Spring Lian, and the dust medicine shop had previously bought a lot of Spring Lian base red paper, one on the side of the store gate, and three side houses in the main house behind the shop, a total of four Spring Lian.
Chen Ping'an, Pei Qian, Zheng Dafeng and Lu Baixiang, each wrote one, all according to a small folded book of Spring Festival couplets purchased in the market, copying the content from above, without much attention.
Chen Ping'an wrote well, Lu Baixiang wrote elegantly, Zheng Dafeng wrote very well, Pei Qian volunteered to write one, but he wrote very carefully, but he was disliked, Zhu Yong kept shaking his head there, and even Wei Xian wrote very well, but unfortunately he was afraid of comparing goods. Pei Qian also has a weak heart, I never thought that Chen Ping'an said that it was like this, just to please a celebration, don't worry too much about the quality of the words, Pei Qian Wei Xian and Sui on the right of the three, this year's goods three people, responsible for moving stools, ladders, rice milk, posting Spring Festival couplets, Chen Ping'an and Zheng Dafeng on the side, standing and talking without back pain, Pei Qian thinks that the Spring Festival couplets are not written well, so they must paste the Spring Festival couplets, which makes the thin little girl who wants to atone for her sins sweat profusely, and finally Sui is on the right side to ask Chen Ping'an and Zheng Dafeng to shut up, Pei Qian is done.
The word spring was written by Chen Ping'an, and the word Fu was written by Zheng Dafeng.
Zhu Zhen was cooking for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, busy for nearly an afternoon, Chen Pingan and Pei Qian helped wash vegetables, choose vegetables, cut vegetables, and help with miscellaneous work, Sui came to the door of the stove room on the right side and stood for a while, and then left.
Finally, Zhu Zhen served a large table of rich Chinese New Year's Eve rice with meat and vegetables, full of color and aroma, hard dishes have a big braised fish that means more than every year, the main dish is a casserole stewed pig's trotters, Chen Pingan and Pei Qian use a pair of chopsticks to help disassemble.
Zheng Dafeng sat on the main seat, sitting north and facing south, Lu Baixiang and Wei Xian sat on Zheng Dafeng's left hand, Sui sat on the right and Pei Qian on the right, Pei Qian stole the fun, saying that the sister on the right sat on the right, but was twisted by Sui's right ear and immediately begged for mercy.
Chen Ping'an and Zhu Yong sat on a bench near the gate.
The Yin God surnamed Zhao was not happy to come in and occupy a position, so he had to give up.
The wine on the table is the osmanthus brew produced by Fanjia Osmanthus Island, with a fragrant aroma, sweet and sweet entrance, and endless aftertaste.
Chen Ping'an saw that Pei Qian was greedy, and he was busy for most of the day without resting, thinking that the osmanthus couldn't be brewed anyway and was not spicy, so he poured her a small cup, two or three sips, just to remind her that she would be able to drink a glass of wine on the day of the New Year in the future, and if she dared to drink secretly, don't blame him for cleaning her up. Pei Qian pecked at the rice with a chicken, and her swarthy face, which had a little more meat, was full of the innocence and happiness that a child should have in her years.
At Chen Ping'an's insistence, Zheng Dafeng must be the first to pick up the chopsticks and pick up the dishes, so that others can move the chopsticks to touch the bowl and drink, and Zheng Dafeng must raise his glass and say something polite, just two or three sentences.
Zheng Dafeng, who was originally very thick-skinned, was so embarrassed that he twisted and pinched for a long time before he said some words that everyone eats and drinks well, and everything goes well in the New Year, Pei Qian took a sip of wine and osmanthus brewing, his eyes were shining, there are such sweet and delicious things in the world? It seems that there are some benefits to growing up, at that time, she should drink if she wants to, right?
At the dinner table, there was a lot of noise, and it was difficult for Pei Qian to eat quietly.
Zheng Dafeng and Chen Ping'an didn't talk much about Lizhu Dongtian and Longquan Town.
Zheng Dafeng asked more about the strange people and strange things in the lotus lotus blessed land, the four people in the picture scroll, and they were also quite interested in Ding Ying, the first person in the world before Chen Ping'an, and then the immortal Jiang Shangzhen, Chen Ping'an picked some things to say, until here, Zheng Dafeng took the opportunity to talk about the inside story of the blessed land of the cave and mentioned the Lizhu cave.
Generally speaking, the ten major caves and the thirty-six small caves, the reason why the cave is the cave is the cave is that the aura is overwhelming, and it is rumored that the cave room goes straight to the sky, and there are all kinds of opportunities left by the ancient immortals or military solutions, or soaring, and it is the first choice for the immortals to practice, and the result is twice the result with half the effort, such as the Wutong small cave of the Tongye Sect, which was monopolized by Du Mao, and it was just a piece of the pie for the monks of the upper five realms in the sect.
It's just that there are some exceptions, the lotus small cave that the Taoist ancestor is connected with the lotus flower blessed land, of course, there is also the Lizhu Cave Heaven, the latter aura is naturally abundant, not known for the treasure of heaven and earth, what is really coveted is that the people of the town are born with excellent cultivation qualifications, the vast world elsewhere, after the land fairy went down the mountain, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, looking for a good seedling, it can be said that there is no place to find the iron shoes, even if you find a good qualification, it may not be suitable for income under the door, or the heart is not in line with the teacher's doorway, etc., maybe in the end or the bamboo basket is empty, disappointed to return to the mountainγ And in the Lizhu Cave Heaven, there are not a few cultivators who are expected to rank among the Middle Five Realms, and the heirs of ordinary pairs of immortal couples may not be able to have this cultivation qualification.
After this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, everyone changed into new clothes, Wei Xian was not very happy to wear new clothes at first, saying that it was really not possible to wear that dragon robe, the new clothes always felt unfitable, unpleasant, and pestered Pei Qian for a long time, before agreeing to change into new clothes and new boots. In order to meet the occasion, Chen Ping'an also temporarily took off his robe Jin Li, and changed into a cyan robe that Pei Qian and Sui helped to choose on the right.
Chen Ping'an gave Pei Qian and the four of them a New Year's money, a snowball money for each person, wrapped in red paper.
Pei Qian knew that this fairy money was worth a thousand taels of silver, and he was happy, and the other four people accepted it, so naturally they would not be in such a state of mind as Pei Qian.
After this comes the vigil.
In the end, Chen Ping'an, Zheng Dafeng and Pei Qian were left, sitting around the fireplace and sitting until dawn.
Chen Ping'an cocked one leg, the lotus figure sat on the instep of his foot, Chen Ping'an shook his leg, and it followed the ups and downs, and the little guy was very happy.
Chen Ping'an didn't dare to drink more of the small refining wine in the sword gourd, and drank with Zheng Dafeng all night, but it was only the amount of half a catty of osmanthus brewed by each of them, and he ordered it to the end.
Zheng Dafeng talked about many peers in the town who were about the same age as Chen Ping'an, Ma Kuxuan, Song Jixin, Zhao Xuan, Lin Shouyi, and a little younger, Li Baohua, Gu Can.
said that the last thing I didn't expect was you, Chen Ping'an, who not only survived, but also got to this point.
Pei Qian was actually asleep in the second half of the night, so he didn't hear these stories about Lizhu Dongtian, Zheng Dafeng took the initiative to ask Chen Ping'an's natal porcelain, Chen Ping'an smiled and said that it was a white porcelain paperweight, roughly in the shape of a dragon, he left some relics of broken porcelain back then, not much, and kept sneaking into the clay pot in the corner of the ancestral house in Mud Bottle Lane. Not surprisingly, once it is fired, it will not be placed on the study case of Emperor Dali as an imperial tribute, and most of them will be secretly hidden in the immortal mansion on a certain mountain, because according to the sword immortal of the sword qi Great Wall boss, he Chen Ping'an should have the qualification of an earth immortal.
Zheng Dafeng did not continue.
Chen Ping'an did not embarrass Zheng Dafeng.
The implication is too deep.
It just so happens that Chen Ping'an has enough patience and perseverance.
Zheng Dafeng finally pointed outside the house, "Lao Zhao, it is the ancestor of the Lizhu Cave Heaven Zhao Xuan, after he died, he collected the soul of the old man of our family, a demigod, a half-yin, if he is lucky, he can throw it out and become the god of a mountain somewhere in the Dali Dynasty in one fell swoop, but Wei Yan ascended to the sky in such a step, and directly changed from a small mountain god to a Beiyue Zhengshen in the land of Banzhou, it is absolutely impossible to hope for it, but there is a chance to sit in a radius of thousands of miles like Gu Can's father." β
Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "I guessed it." β
Mr. Qi once left three spring breezes, respectively on his Chen Ping'an, Zhao Miao and Song Jixin.
Zhao Xiang failed to keep the most precious spring character seal, but Mr. Qi said that he was not disappointed in this, Chen Ping'an did not understand at first, with Mr. Qi's temperament, it is definitely not because he has no high hopes for Zhao Xuan, so he is not disappointed, in fact, Mr. Qi is still more important to Zhao Xuan before Zhao Xiang and Song Jixin, now that I think about it, in fact, Mr. Qi does not hope that Zhao Xiang will take this opportunity to completely dissociate himself from this context, whether Zhao Xiang is self-reliant, or invest in other cultural contexts, maybe he can spend his life in peace and stability, Mr. Qi is already gratifiedγ
Chen Ping'an thinks that he can't be as open-minded as Mr. Qi.
In the future, I will read more, know more people, and be happy, but I will definitely not be able to do it today.
Regarding the identity of Ma Kuxuan in Xinghua Lane, Zheng Dafeng leaked a trace of heavenly opportunity, saying that the white cat that depended on Ma Kuxuan for his life had a great background and a great opportunity, compared to the dragon king basket and golden carp of Gao Xuan, the prince of the Great Sui, the fire dragon bracelet on Ruan Xiu's wrist, Zhao Xuan's wood carving dragon, Gu Can's small loach and Song Jixin's four-legged snake, but unlike the latter five, the white cat secretly broke into the Lizhu Cave and would only recognize Ma Kuxuan alone.
Chen Ping'an said that Ma Kuxuan fought with him twice, once in the tomb of the gods in his hometown, and once on Caiyiguo Street.
Zheng Dafeng couldn't laugh well, he didn't take it too seriously, saying that every five hundred years in Lizhu Cave Heaven and the like, there will be a pair, either a mortal enemy or a close friend, the latter is like Cao Yuan Shuangbi of the Dali Dynasty, this time, maybe it's the two of you, Ma Kuxuan in Xinghua Lane, and Chen Ping'an in Mud Bottle Lane.
Chen Ping'an turned his head to look at the sky outside the house, it was early morning on the first day of the first lunar month.
At this time last year, he was still wandering around like a lonely ghost in the lotus flower blessed land, which was really like a world away.
After Pei Qian woke up, he immediately went to the alley outside the pharmacy to set off firecrackers, but maybe he was a year older, and he was very well-behaved, so he first asked Zhao if the Yin God would scare it if he set off firecrackers, and the Yin God smiled and said no.
Listening to the continuous sound of firecrackers on the side of the alley, Zheng Dafeng suddenly said: "Pei Qian stays by your side, you can restrain certain natures, and leave you in the future, what should I do?"
Chen Ping'an thought for a while, "Try to teach her the difference between good and evil before leaving me, only when she does this, can she talk about good and evil, otherwise she will be confused in what she does." β
Chen Ping'an drew a circle on the ground with his toes, "There are no rules, there is no circle." She's still young, and she can do whatever she wants when I help her draw the circle, but if something goes out of the circle, I'll knock it and tell her something. Take your time, you can't do it overnight. After the New Year, the child who is only eleven years old is not doing badly now. β
Zheng Dafeng smiled: "Can I compare with you?"
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Why do you want to compare with me, Pei Qian is Pei Qian, Chen Ping'an is Chen Ping'an." β
Zheng Dafeng said with emotion: "Pei Qian is lucky to meet you. β
Chen Ping'an turned his head to look at Zheng Dafeng, "You Zheng Dafeng met me, it's different? It's just that you passed by Old Dragon City twice, and you are both your preacher and your protector, it's very tiring, okay?"
Zheng Dafeng sighed: "The preacher deserves to be okay, but you are really not a protector." β
Chen Ping'an laughed, and joked with his fists insincerely: "Forgive me, Wujing martial artist, you can't do better." β
Zheng Dafeng rolled his eyes and said to himself: "How will I find a daughter-in-law in the future." β
Pei Qian took a feather duster and carried it on his shoulder, saying that he wanted to rest and rest for the walking stick, and when he arrived in the backyard, he said good things when he saw people, saying that he hoped that Lao Wei would find a beautiful little daughter-in-law quickly, and hoped that Xiaobai would play chess more and more, and strive to be the hundredth in the world. I hope that my sister on the right will get younger and younger, and she will not have wrinkles for the rest of her life. I hope Zhu Yong will make better meals this year. I hope that the realm of Grandpa Zhao, surnamed Yinshen, will rise and rise, and I will take her to the sky to play in the future. I hope that Zheng Dafeng's shop will have a prosperous business.
Pei Qian finally hoped that in the new year, Chen Ping'an's wealth would roll in, and he couldn't stop it, and the gold and silver treasures couldn't be stuffed.
Obviously, in the new year, she doesn't want to be a loser anymore.
I don't know if Pei Qian was transferred or what, from a little crow's mouth that Zhu Yong was afraid of, to a golden mouth that opened and worked on the same day.
On the first day of the first lunar month, according to the customs of Aquarius, the broom is upside down, and he does not welcome guests, does not travel far and does not work, just eat, drink and have fun, but Fan Junmao still came to the dust pharmacy in the morning, in addition to asking Chen Ping'an when he will go to the sea of clouds again to refine the natal object, he brought Chen Ping'an three bags of gold and copper coins. A bag of offerings and spring money, accumulating more than 30 pieces, all of which are the pockets of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty himself, and it is guaranteed that there will continue to be in the future, because with the hooves of the horses riding south, not to mention the obscene shrines forbidden by the imperial courts of various countries along the way, it is some mountain gods who do not know the times, and a golden body can be broken and broken, and the fragments are used to cast gold and copper coins.
Chen Ping'an looked at Zheng Dafeng, who was also confused, "It's similar to the Lizhu Cave Heaven Burning Natal Porcelain, isn't the gold essence copper coin no longer minted now?"
Fan Junmao sneered: "So this is the sincerity of Da Li Song's reparation, otherwise how can he appear to be generous?"
Zheng Dafeng thought for a while, "Unless it is the old man who puts pressure on the Song Emperor, otherwise the Dali Dynasty will not cut the flesh like this, and these golden body fragments will be collected and used to smear the golden bodies of the other three mountain gods in the future, which is more cost-effective." β
Chen Ping'an nodded in agreement.
Zheng Dafeng was a little puzzled, "It's not like the old man's style." β
Fan Junmao said angrily: "Previously, a cross-continent ferry boat that went south from Beiju Luzhou would not have stopped at Longquan Ferry, but as a result, a man smashed directly from the sky to the ground, and now there are so many forces in the mountains in the west that have taken root, building mansions, and there are many people, this news has spread in the north of Aquarius, and everyone knows that in addition to Song Changjing, there is also a legendary martial artist of the Ten Realms." β
Zheng Dafeng wiped his face and said, "Li Er is undoubted, I just don't know when I will arrive in our Old Dragon City." β
Fan Junmao knew in his heart, "According to the itinerary of the Longquan ferry, if you are willing to spend money and go south to Old Dragon City faster, it should be these few days." β
Zheng Dafeng snapped his fingers to calculate, and said with a smile: "From Beiju Luzhou to the northernmost Dali Dynasty in Aquarius, and then to the southernmost here, I was in a hurry, but it was estimated that the old man stopped me." β
Zheng Dafeng asked softly, "Where is Tongye Sect?"
Fan Junmao sneered: "These waste earth immortals in Old Dragon City, how dare they cross the sea to Tongye Continent to wander around and spy on the news, originally Aquarius Continent is a dwarf, and Tongye Sect is the most powerful mountain in Tongye Continent, no one wants to provoke it." Some insiders, at most, only the Fu family will know a little, and the rest of the major surname families, about the movements of the Tongye Sect, are similar to blind people. However, I estimate that there is a big problem on the Tongye Sect's side, otherwise the Fu family would not have taken out three bags of gold and copper coins in the Dali Dynasty, in addition to the old dragon cloth rain pendant, Fu Qi took out something that I couldn't even think of, and asked me to transfer it to Chen Ping'an, but Fu Qi also said that it still needs to be discussed in the ancestral hall of the Fu family, but he will try to pass the agenda, when will Chen Ping'an leave the old dragon city, and when will it be delivered, you two, might as well guess?"
Chen Ping'an hurriedly called Pei Qian in the courtyard to his side, roughly explained the situation of the Fu family, and then said seriously: "You come and guess, the things are better guessed." β
Pei Qian thought about it carefully, and said timidly: "Could it be a half-immortal soldier?"
Fan Junmao was speechless for a moment.
Chen Ping'an and Zheng Dafeng glanced at each other and laughed.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month.
Except for the old man from the countryside who stayed in the dusty pharmacy and chatted about melon seeds, Pei Qian accompanied him to talk to the chickens and ducks, one old and one young, each bragging about it, and the two did not delay.
The pharmacy has another customer today.
A short and sturdy man walked into the alley, and the old man sitting on the bench on the threshold couldn't help but take a few more looks, but no, the man in front of him was much rarer than the Yupu Realm monk on the mountain.
Although the four people in the picture scroll did not see this person with their own eyes, they were frightened almost at the same time, the kind of heart-to-heart induction between the same pure martial artists, the four of Wei Xian and Zhu in the backyard, when the person slowly walked towards the medicine store, it was like seeing a huge dragon, squeezing into a stream ditch.
Is there such a martial artist in the world?
After discovering that Chen Ping'an and Zheng Dafeng were not nervous, the four of them were relieved.
Wei Xian's palm rubbed his chin, Zhu Yong's eyes were hot, Lu Baixiang and Sui stopped talking about the game on the right, and a finger on Sui's right gently tapped an idle chess piece in front of him.
Chen Ping'an and Zheng Dafeng walked to the front shop together.
Zheng Dafeng bent his waist, looked left and right, and the first thing he said was, "Why didn't my sister-in-law come?"
The man looked at Zheng Dafeng, and Mu Ne didn't have much expression on his face, "If it weren't for the master asking me to wait, I would already be at the top of Tongye Sect Mountain at this time." β
Zheng Dafeng scratched his head and didn't speak.
Then the man looked at Chen Ping'an, hugged his fists and said: "Chen Ping'an, that trip to the far house, all the way down, Li Huai is much more sensible, and it is not something that can be learned from some books, I Li Er have to thank you, Mr. Qi taught Li Huai well, Mr. Qi left, you also taught very well, I actually have to call you Mr. Chen." Today, I have to rush to Tongyezhou to demolish Du Mao's ancestral hall, so I won't talk much. Anyway, just a few rough words, put it here, generally only if the family is bullied, I, Li Er, will punch. But I promise, in the future, as long as you Chen Ping'an let someone say something, who do you want me to hammer Li Er, I will immediately rush over to hammer whoever I want, and frown, I will not be Li Huai's father!"
Clenching his fists again, Li Er said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"
The man just left.
