The peaks stretch, protect the foothills, out of the spring water and the intersection of the mountains and stones, a small town is located in it, connected with the smooth official road, become the nearest foothold from the top of Mount Tai.

"Tai'an",

The most conspicuous position in front of the town hangs these two big characters, there are rumors in ancient times, Taishan An, then the world is safe, Taishan Ping, then the world is flat, Taishan Xing, then the world is Xing, perhaps the name of this town is taken from this meaning!

Compared with other towns, Tai'an Town is not comparable, but although the sparrows are small, they are complete, what blacksmith shops, grocery stores, restaurants and inns, etc., there are everything, from a distance, firewood and grass thatched houses, wood, stone and tile houses, mixed together.

"Take a walk, take a look, take a look at my tea eggs..."

"Take a break, stop for a while, listen to the name of my wine..."

There are many small merchants and vendors, carrying burdens, setting up stalls, carving on footsteps, and also on animal skin fabrics, all of which are shouting and selling, bargaining, and the liveliness is not much worse than that of other places.

Where there are people, it is the world, and the most is the fireworks in the world.

"Chir, chirp."

Happy on the branches of the warm spring, splendid mountains and rivers new look.

In this spring season, the ruins of the cold winter are driven away, and everything is waiting to be revived, and it also dissolves the thick white meaning on the high mountains in the distance, so that people can feel more comfortable even in this grove of mountains and forests.

On a street in the center of the town, a group of young people were gathering together, chatting about something.

"Erniu, your kid has been living a good life recently, he has wine every day, and he eats meat every day!"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, didn't you see that Erniu has lost weight, he saved money to eat meat and buy wine, guess why?"

"Haha, is Erniu for wine, but for the beautiful girl of Lao Ma's family, this is called I'd rather be hungry than take care of the business of the beauty's family, the duke is selfless, it's love, understand?"

In the crowd, two people sang and laughed at the young man who stood in the center as strong as a calf, obviously half a head taller than the others.

But the boy just giggled and didn't refute until one of them shouted,

"Don't say it, give Lao Tzu a bite, I'm hungry!"

wanted to snatch the wine jar in his arms, so he lowered his face and raised his fist the size of a sandbag, which meant that if he disagreed, he would beat someone.

Not to mention, his figure, ordinary people really don't dare to provoke, that person can only stomp his feet hatefully, scold a few words,

"If you don't give it, you won't give it, just like you, it's weird that people can take a fancy to you, by the way, I heard that people follow Shi Gongzi's ass every day, Brother Ping'an, Brother Ping'an..."

In the end, he pinched his throat and learned to be a woman.

Erniu's old face was suffocated into a sauce liver color, and he stretched out his hand to slap the man, but at this moment, he was interrupted by another person's voice.

"Alright, don't make a fuss, look, who's there?"

Following the direction of the other party's fingers, everyone turned their heads to look, and a thin body gradually came into view...

Before I knew it, another three days had passed, and Ping An had been counting the days with his fingers on his fingers every day, and he had been lying in bed for three days.

In the past three days, Ping An has been suffering from physical and psychological torments all the time, and six days have passed when he counted the time he made a bet with Xuanjizi.

But the more anxious he is, the slower his body's recovery will be, and if it weren't for Ling Yu's careful care, he would have to lie in bed for a few more days.

In six days, Ping An also had a clear understanding of the injuries in his body, which was very heavy, and his chest was like being pressed by a thousand pounds of boulder all the time, and he was almost out of breath several times.

Every time I beat my chest and cough, it is like coughing out my five internal organs in order to feel better.

Such an injury, not to mention that there are only more than 20 days left, even if it is added for another half a year, it may not be able to be good.

How else do you bet against Xuanjizi?

At this point, Ping An had to suspect that the old splash of Xuanjizi must have done it on purpose.

Such a little trick can only prove one problem, he is afraid, so there is a little bit of hatred in Ping'an's heart, and there is a little more belief in victory.

This also became the reason why Ping An couldn't lie down for a moment, and while Lingyu was not here today, his condition improved slightly, so he forced himself out of the house.

Little by little, the sun shone on the body, and the air poured into the whole body, and Ping An gradually felt that the long-lost comfort had returned, and even the pain in the body seemed to have been reduced a lot.

And unconsciously, he also came to the center of the town and walked into the eyes of Erniu and several people.

"Yo he, this isn't Shi Gongzi, but I haven't seen you for a few days, I heard that you have been poisoned by something, how is it, is it better?"

Before Ping An could say hello, Erniu, who had been ridiculed by several people and was holding back his anger, saw that Ping An was coming from afar, and he was even more angry, and his rough voice roared from afar.

As he spoke, Ping An walked closer, as if he hadn't noticed Erniu's very ugly face, and respectfully returned the salute,

"Hello, Erniu, ahem, you..."

"Seeing that you cough so badly, could it be that you are really poisoned?"

Erniu stared at Ping An suspiciously.

"Ahem, it doesn't matter..."

Ping'an waved his hand casually, but the more he said this, the more suspicious Er Niu became, looking left and right, and the black old face was full of disbelief.

Ping An didn't interrupt, let him look at it casually, and only coughed a few times from time to time in place.

After a while, a few people gathered around Er Niu and said a few words in a low voice, Er Niu suddenly straightened his waist and muttered in a low voice,

"Why do you come out when you're hurt?"

Immediately after, he turned his head and laughed loudly with a few people beside him,

"However, in our Tai'an Town, only Shi Gongzi knows the most etiquette, am I right, by the way, what do I do is not like that?"

In the end, he still learned what he was like before Ping'an, and made a respectful salute, but when he laughed, he secretly glanced at Ping'an a few times out of the corner of his eye.

"Erniu, that's good, this big gift, with a bit of appearance, Lao Tzu accepted it!"

"Fuck off!"

Pushing the person who took advantage of him, Erniu blushed, angry at Ping'an, and vented a little unrelentingly:

"Phew, what are you pretending to be, call you a scholar, you really regard yourself as a son, and you don't look at your own virtue, sick seedling, is my second cow strong, is my second cow handsome?"

The more Erniu spoke, the more angry he became, and the last sentence was almost shouted, Ping An held back a smile, and hurriedly waved his hand again and again,

"Ahem, no, no, Erniu Gongzi is the strongest and most handsome."

In order to prove that what he said was true, Ping An even turned to others and instructed,

"You all listen to it, just call me safe in the future, what kind of scholar, there is no such title, only Erniu Gongzi."

"Poof,"

Finally, someone couldn't hold it back, haha, causing the others to burst into laughter.

But Erniu didn't seem to notice that others were laughing at him, raised his eyebrows, nodded with satisfaction, and even the tone of his speech became different.

"It's pretty much the same, you all heard it, Erniu Gongzi didn't say it myself."

"Who is that, Shi Gongzi, no, peace, it's not right, it's too tongue-twisting, Xiao Pingping, I'm not allowed to see you in the future, stay away from Li'er..."

"Xiao Pingping, haha!"

Several people around him leaned back and leaned back in laughter again.

"Cheng, whatever Wang Gongzi says, it will be done."

Ping An was still not angry, and stretched out his hand calmly,

"By the way, Wang Gongzi, I will lend you a jar of wine and pay you back tomorrow!"

As he spoke, he snatched the jar of wine directly from Erniu's hand, his teeth were slightly revealed, and he glanced at Erniu meaningfully, and turned to leave.

"Ahh

The others wondered, wasn't Ping'an's act of finding a beating for himself?

But to their surprise, the tall Erniu not only did not object, but almost fell to the ground softly, how can there be any son-in-law?

It's really a eunuch wearing a dragon robe, not a prince is a drama!

……

More than twenty days, twenty-four days!

What's next?

Mentally calculated, after a long time, Ping An couldn't sort out his head, so he could only walk forward aimlessly.

Suddenly, Ping An slapped his head, and his depressed face showed a hint of shock, and secretly scolded himself, stupid.

Perhaps it was too much force, and he couldn't help but bend down and cough violently.

After a while, his face looked a little better, and he turned in one direction and strode forward...

At the end of the hillside in the center of Tai'an Town, there is an independent Lingxingmen courtyard, and a neat word "Xue" is hung on the gate.

This courtyard looks from a distance, very neat, and the occasional sound of reading can be heard in it, which adds a bit of knowledge to the town.

Even the occasional passers-by on the side looked respectful and unconsciously lightened their steps.

At this time, in the courtyard, Ping An and an old man dressed as a mountain chief stood opposite each other.

"Ahem, Master, the student is asking you for advice,"

"You once taught that in ancient times, the dispute between heaven and earth was ultimately the rampant floods in our human world, and all living beings were ruined, why did all this become immortal punishment?"

The elder glanced at Ping'an, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice,

"This... Naturally, it is the fault of the world, not worshipping heaven, not worshipping immortals, and not having faith, and eventually becoming a catastrophe,"

"However, fortunately, Dayu came to the world, he did not harm the public with his own interests, lived outside for thirteen years, passed the door three times without entering, broke the flood, welcomed the immortal family, acted righteously, taught the world, and respected the heavens and the earth!"

After a pause, the elder's voice suddenly rose by three points, and continued,

"Righteousness is great, for the country and the people, Yujun's righteous deeds, even if he soars to become an immortal and enters the god list, it is also deserved."

"Did Yu become an immortal? How did he become an immortal? ”

Ping An couldn't help blurting out, and directly made the elder stand on the spot.

Okay, if the old man knew how Yujun became an immortal, he would still have to stay in this poor and remote place to teach.

The elder coughed dryly a few times, and almost at the same time, Ping An also coughed violently, and the elder hurriedly reached out to support him, his eyes full of concern.

Ping An waved his hand lightly, signaling that he was fine, and then asked the next question,

"Master, the student wants to ask, where did the flood come from?"

After confirming that he was safe and okay, the elder put his hands behind his back and replied quietly,

"This question, the old man once said, nature comes from the sky, the sky and the water are clear, and then through the human world, it enters the earth and becomes polluted, and the clear rises and falls, which is the immutable law for eternity."

"The flood came to the world, isn't it the two worlds of heaven and earth to warn all things in the human world, respect the way of heaven, do not trample the earth, obey the decree, and do righteous deeds!"

As soon as he said this, the elder's heart suddenly swelled with infinite pride, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky.
