Chapter 149: The Battle of the Covenant
Chen Ping'an's eyes widened, and he saw that the "Jing Xin Proud" seal, after hitting the forehead of the young man in white, first rebounded, then stagnated in the air, and finally pulled back as if he was being pulled back, but the strength of the person who pulled the line over there was a little smaller, and the static word print was dangling in the air, high and low, and the speed was not fast.
Chen Ping'an traced its trajectory, and saw that between himself and Li Baohua, there was the locust wooden sword hovering, and there was a gold-clothed girl with a height about the same as the tail finger, lying on all fours, hiding under the flying sword, holding the wooden sword with her hands and feet, at this time, she finally got up, and after standing up, the delicate and lovely gold-clothed girl stood on the sword, it was dizzy, and her steps were dangling like a drunk, it seemed that the experience of this sword flight was not so good.
The static character seal fell on the wooden sword, the seal was a little heavy, and the tail of the sword was cocked at once, and the girl in gold slid towards the seal, hurrying.
Li Baohua also didn't notice the existence of the golden-clothed girl before, but when she saw it, she only thought it was interesting, so she rushed over happily, squatting slightly on her knees, holding both ends of the Huaimu sword with both hands, and staring at the little guy who was trying to dodge at close range, the golden-clothed girl was stunned, it seemed that she was very shy by nature, and after reaching out to cover her face, she put her feet together and jumped straight up.
Chen Ping'an didn't know what was going on, and he didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he reminded hoarsely: "Treasure bottle, throw the wooden sword to me, and you can put away the seal first." β
Li Baohua immediately put away his curiosity, knowing that the top priority was to clean up the guy surnamed Cui, and after grabbing the seal, he snorted lightly and threw the Huaimu sword to the little uncle.
It's just that the little girl's strength is a little inaccurate, and the Huaimu sword is a little deviated from the position where Chen Ping'an was standing.
"Turn around!"
Chen Ping'an gave Li Baohua an order, then tiptoed a little, stepped towards the left side of the old well, stepped on the edge of the well, accurately held the wooden sword, continued to take a big step forward, and after landing, he stabbed the young man in white with a sword.
At this moment, Chen Ping'an held the Huaimu sword in his hand, revealing the upper half of the golden-clothed girl's body, crying, full of regret and guilt, shaking his head and waving his hand at him, as if to stop Chen Ping'an from killing.
But Chen Ping'an from the sword to the sword, extremely decisive, in one go, and when the gold-clothed girl appeared, the tip of the wooden sword had already resisted the heart of the young man in white, Chen Ping'an because of the perennial porcelain drawing, the control of the strength can be called subtle, even if he has the heart to stop, but from the operation of the qi machine in the body, the expansion and contraction of the arm muscles to the inertia carried by the wooden sword, Chen Ping'an cannot change the ending.
An old show carrying a cotton bag suddenly appeared out of thin air, "It's okay, it's okay, it's almost a handful." β
With the birth of Lao Xiucai at the last moment, the young Cui Yun seemed to be pulled back by the neck, and stood still instantly, although he was still in a state of syncope, his waist was straight, standing like a green pine, and he avoided being pierced by Chen Ping'an's sword.
The old man looked at the straw sandals boy who quickly retreated, with a horizontal sword in front of him in one hand, and Li Baohua behind him with the other hand.
The old man sighed: "It's you." β
Chen Ping'an was like a great enemy, he didn't dare to take it lightly, and said softly: "Treasure bottle, you can run away when you have the next opportunity, don't worry about me." β
Chen Ping'an found that Li Baohua pulled his sleeve, three times and twice, he was a little surprised in his heart, and looked down sideways, "What's wrong?"
The little girl's face stiffened, she raised her arm, pointed to the side behind Chen Ping'an, opened her mouth, and said two words, "There are ghosts." β
Enemy on the belly and back?
Chen Ping'an's heartstrings were tense, and when he looked at it, his face was sluggish, the young man blinked his eyes, blinked again, and after making sure that he was not mistaken, he turned his back to Lao Xiucai and the young man in white, and did not dare to say anything clearly, so as not to eavesdrop on others, but instead hurt this fairy sister, but he was really anxious, and the young man stopped talking, like an ant on a hot pot.
Li Baohua secretly held Uncle Xiao's sleeve, glanced at the old man with a pleasant face, and then turned his head to look at the elusive female ghost.
Compared to the last time I saw the ghost in the wedding dress, tonight this one is wearing white clothes and white shoes, and is carrying a snow-white ...... Big lotus leaves? Li Baohua muttered a little, are the female ghosts of the world outside so fresh and refined? I think that the eldest brother was once coerced by himself, and he had to tell a lot of bloody ghost stories, and the red and pink skeletons, water ghosts, river demons and other spirits and ghosts there are often cutting through people's hearts and livers and eating human flesh and blood, and their appearance and posture are extremely terrifying.
Where will it be like the one in front of me, more beautiful and moving than the previous wedding girl ghost.
She is tall, but she still gives people a slender and natural beauty, full of black and bright green silk like a waterfall, from behind to her chest, with a golden silk scarf tied in a knot, looking particularly demure and dignified.
Li Baohua only felt that the tall woman in front of her was really tall and good-looking, which made her very envious, and the little girl quietly stood on her heels, and soon stepped back to the ground in discouragement.
In the eyes of the tall woman, there seemed to be only Chen Ping'an.
She smiled and said, "Wait a minute, we have to fight with someone, don't be afraid of that old man, it's just a little bit of a beating." β
"Don't worry, this sister is not a bad person, she is our own person!"
Chen Ping'an first comforted Li Baohua beside him, and after raising his head again, he finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you can't leave the town?
The tall woman shook her wrist, the lotus leaf in her hand swayed gently, her tone was gentle and slow, and she had a reassuring bearing, "Do you know that there is a place called Lotus Cave Heaven?"
Chen Ping'an suddenly remembered Ning Yao, nodded and said: "Someone told me before that it was a place where the Taoist ancestor was distracted, although it was only one of the thirty-six small caves, but the lotus leaf there, even the smallest lotus leaf surface, was bigger than our Dali capital." β
The woman said with a smile: "It's not that exaggerated, like this lotus leaf in my hand, if it shows its true appearance, it is almost an area of more than ten miles, of course, the largest lotus leaf there must be much larger than the capital of Dali." These lotus leaves can cover the heavens, to put it simply, so that the saints of the three sects and the masters of the hundred schools have no way to discover my movements. β
She saw Chen Ping'an's face full of doubts, and explained with a smile: "When we met, I didn't have this good thing in my hand at that time, it was before Qi Jingchun left the world, he went to the outer heavens, found Dao Ancestor, and bargained with that old immortal to help me ask for this lotus leaf umbrella, as for what Qi Jingchun paid, I don't know, after all." The natal word 'Jing' is a taboo, and there are many people who are dissatisfied with it within the Taoist system, so it is certain that Qi Jingchun will leave this vast world, and the trip to the Lotus Cave will not be small. β
Speaking of this, it was a tall woman, and her eyes also showed a trance, and she sincerely admired the Confucian protΓ©gΓ©.
After Qi Jingchun returned to the world from the outer world, they had their last small talk.
"This lotus leaf?"
"I went to the Outer Heaven and plucked it from that Lotus Cave Heaven, which can help you leave this place, and at the same time, it will not disturb the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and you don't have to worry about the sage inquiry. β
"A good thing is a good thing. But aren't you afraid that Chen Ping'an will become unscrupulous with me by his side, so that he will become the kind of person you Qi Jingchun doesn't like?"
"What Chen Ping'an's temperament is, I Qi Jingchun knows it well, so I never worry about Chen Ping'an bullying others, even if you protect him from beginning to end, I, Qi Jingchun, don't worry about it. β
"Are you so optimistic about Chen Ping'an?"
"Tell me, he's my little brother. β
"You and Chen Ping'an are equals, and then I recognize him as the master, so what do you mean by Qi Jingchun?"
"Haha, don't dare!"
Thinking of this, the tall woman sighed slightly in her heart.
It's a pity that there is a missing Qi Jingchun between heaven and earth.
Li Baohua, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, spoke timidly for the first time: "Sister, you are so good-looking." β
The tall woman nodded and smiled, "Yes, it's much better looking than you." β
Not only is it unceremonious, but the words are also hurtful!
The little girl in the red cotton jacket was a little sluggish and speechless.
Chen Ping'an was covered in cold sweat.
Behind Chen Ping'an, it was also a reunion.
The old man stared at the young man in white who had come to his senses, and the young man glared back, thinking that Lao Tzu is not afraid to wear shoes with bare feet now, but what are you afraid of?
The old man looked at the tall woman first, and the latter nodded that it was okay.
The old man looked at the young man at this time, and said angrily: "Aren't you Cui Yun very smart? Then now let's review, have you ever thought about why I suddenly lost control of those words, so that you can be separated from the divine soul, and it happens to be on par with the Dao meaning contained in that wisp of sword qi, and they wear each other down, so that you rushed out of the bottom of the well at that time and had the opportunity to use a killing move against Chen Ping'an? Have you ever thought that in the end, you may be killed by Chen Ping'an with a punch, and Chen Ping'an will be seriously injured by you at the same time?!"
The young Cui Yun's face was cloudy, and in the end, he pouted in anger, pretending that it didn't matter, "It's nothing more than a sage of a certain line of Confucianism, what's so strange." Even Qi Jingchun was willing to walk into that dead end, and ended up with a helpless hand, what happened to me Cui Yun being calculated once. β
The more the young man spoke, the more angry he became, and he stretched out his hand to point at the poor old Xiucai, "Old man, are you embarrassed to say this? Qi Jingchun, the one you pinned your hopes on the most, died, and the stupid Ma Zhan, who had the least firm heart, also died, and the one surnamed Zuo simply disappeared completely. You are amazing, I want to say that the prince of heaven and earth is a teacher. Yasheng said that human nature is inherently good, okay, you also said that human nature is inherently evil! Your uncle, how did Yasheng provoke you and provoke you?"
The young man stomped his feet angrily, this habitual action was actually in the same vein as Lao Xiucai, and his fingers were almost pointing at the old man's nose, "What's more excessive is that the Yasheng is not much older than you, maybe they are still in the world, live well, old man, why are you so tendoned, you catch the Holy Master or the Holy Master to scold, maybe the Yasheng will help you, right? You have to sing against the Yasheng, I'm convinced!"
Lao Xiucai was silent, just gently wiped the saliva on the young man's face.
If your family fights in the ring, you sing the opposite, and if you have a small family, you will be closed the door, quarrel and have a red face is nothing.
But you must know that a sub-sage, a literary sage, this "three-four dispute" that shocked the entire Confucian sect and all the academies of the academy was too turbulent, and the two sages, especially under the premise that the first two of the Confucian Temple had long since ceased to exist, could almost be said to represent the entire Confucianism, the Confucianism that set the rules for a vast world. Although there are no signs of falling apart, the family members of the next-door neighbors can not steal joy when they see the subtleties and insights?
After that, within Confucianism, there was a very hidden gambling contract. The loser is willing to gamble and lose, and self-imprisons in the merit forest.
Lao Xiucai lost, so he stayed there and waited for death, allowing himself to stand on the statue of the god of the Temple of Literature, moving his nest again and again, and finally breaking his bones.
But when the most proud disciple went to another continent, carried the way of heaven and died, Lao Xiucai had to make an agreement with all the saints, not just the Confucian saints, in order to break the oath. After all, if the saint's oath can be easily renegotiated, then this world with strict rules may have been changed beyond recognition.
Lao Xiucai took the initiative to give up his body and skin, gave up many magical powers of Confucian saints, and only wandered the world with his soul.
Lao Xiucai waited until the young man crossed his hands on his hips, lowered his head and panted, and asked, "Is it time for me to reason after scolding?"
After the young man in white expressed his chest with a vicious breath, thinking of the various deeds of this old guy back then, Cui Yun became a little weak and timid, and began to say nothing.
Lao Xiucai sighed and said, "Who taught Qi Jingchun how to play chess." β
Cui Yun immediately held his head high, "Lao Tzu!"
The old man was expressionless, and said slowly: "I once told all of you that when reasoning with others, even if it is a quarrel or even a debate, you must be calm. β
Cui Yun immediately fell silent and said in a low voice: "It's me...... He Qi Jingchun has no understanding of chess, and he refuses to play again after losing to me a few times. β
The old man asked again, "Then who taught you how to play chess?"
Cui was reluctant to give an answer.
Lao Xiucai snorted coldly: "Lao Tzu!"
Cui Yun was aggrieved and hated so much, old man, do you know what it means to lead by example?
Lao Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief, "When you were teaching Qi Jingchun to play chess, who was higher and who was lower in chess compared to me?"
Cui Yun reluctantly said: "I'm not as good as you." β
The old man asked, "Then do you know that Qi Jingchun learned to play chess and quickly beat me in chess?"
The boy was stunned.
I don't doubt the truth of the old man's words.
The old man asked again: "Do you know what Qi Jingchun said in private? He said to me, 'Senior brother really likes to play chess, and he is a bit heavy about winning and losing, and I don't want to lie to people when I play chess, if Senior Brother always loses to me, then he will lose a happy thing in the future.' ββ
The young man Cui Yun stiffened his neck and said, "Even if that's the case, so what?"
The old man was angry and mourned his misfortune, and reprimanded: "You are a dead duck with a hard mouth." I have always been very quick to know my mistakes, and I am very slow to admit my mistakes! As for correcting them, hum!"
The young man Cui Yun said angrily: "You didn't teach it yet!"
The old man glared at him, was silent for a moment, and said regretfully: "Ma Zhan's betrayal may disappoint Xiao Qi even more than your Cui Yun's plan." β
Cui Yun sneered and said: "Ma Zhan is a kind of person, I don't rarely say him, his heart is higher than the sky and his life is thinner than paper, if I say that I am for the opportunity of the avenue, for the incense context, then what about him, just for the sake of the master of the academy, he is expected to master a school palace in the future, for such a little fame and fortune, he is willing to be a classmate and willing to be someone else's pawn, it is really damned." Old man, you gave Qi Jingchun a parting word, 'It's impossible to learn. Green is taken from blue, and green is blue. 'This sentence is widely circulated, I know it, but what did you give Ma Zhan?'
The old man said indifferently: "Heaven and earth give birth to gentlemen, and gentlemen manage heaven and earth." It's a pity. β
I don't know if it's a pity for this sentence, or a pity for Ma Zhan.
Cui Yun sneered: "After Ma Zhan left the town with those children, he had a very happy conversation with one of my chess pieces at first, and they were quite frank, and he mentioned that he had a dispute with Qi Jingchun about leaving Lizhu Dongtian or continuing to stay, and Qi Jingchun finally said a very strange thing to him, which made Ma Zhan a little frightened, 'When a gentleman is a gentleman, he is a gentleman, and when he is a gentleman, he is also a gentleman. Ma Zhan, a fool, after Qi Jingchun's death in the spring, still followed his selfishness, dreaming of the spring and autumn of the mountain lord of a courtyard, only when he was about to die, he opened his mind, and finally determined that Qi Jingchun was in the school at the time, in fact, he had long known what he was doing, but he was unwilling to expose it, and still hoped that he Ma Zhan could take good care of those children. Ma Zhan is really an afterthought, after being delayed twice, he finally knew that everything was over, and he was finally the only time in his life that he aroused the blood of so many men, and at the cost of losing the afterlife, he hurt my chess piece, so that those children could return to the town, and finally there were so many more things......"
In the end, the young man in white became more and more weak.
Lao Xiucai sighed.
There are many people and things in Lizhu Cave, especially the most recent Jiazi where Qi Jingchun is in charge, the heavenly machine is more tightly isolated, Qi Jingchun, Old Man Yang, and some behind-the-scenes figures, have secretly made moves, making this small cave sky confusing, and there are many variables, even the old Xiucai is extremely difficult to calculate and deduce, and I dare not say that the truth deduced must be the truth.
The tall woman's gentle voice sounded softly, "Finished talking?"
Cui Yun found that Lao Xiucai's face was a little ugly, sighed heavily, and caught a glimpse of the woman looking at him out of the corner of his eye, so the old man had to take off the bag behind his back, take out a pair of scrolls, and gently untie the rope that bound the scrolls.
Chen Ping'an was confused.
She walked up to Chen Ping'an and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, you can draw the sword three times." β
She squinted her eyes, looked at the sky outside the lotus leaf, and said slowly: "Wait a minute, I will return to my true body, you don't have to be surprised." β
Finally, she seemed to remember something, and apologized: "I forgot to say two words." β
Chen Ping'an raised his head.
The tall woman restrained her smile and said respectfully, "Master." β
