(Six chapters are still owed.) ）

Chen Ping'an did not go back to Liu Xianyang's house directly, but went back to Mud Bottle Lane first and told Ning Yao about Liu Xianyang's plan.

After Ning Yao heard it, she didn't express her opinion, she only said that this is a matter between you, she only collects money and money for others to eliminate disasters, if Liu Xianyang can escape without her help, she will return the three bags of gold and copper coins. Chen Ping'an said that it was not a matter of money, but Ning Yao replied coldly, Then you want to talk to me about feelings, let's get to that point? Chen Ping'an was almost choked to death by her words, so he had to squat on the threshold and scratch his head.

Ning Yao glanced at the pastries brought by Chen Ping'an on the table, there were cheap and beautiful glutinous rice and jujube cakes, and relatively expensive rain and dew cakes, it must be the way of hospitality that the young man did his best, the girl was a little soft-hearted and guilty, and for a while she felt that she seemed to be a little unkind, eating other people's and living in other people's houses, and when she encountered difficulties, even if she couldn't help a lot, she couldn't add fuel to the fire, so she asked: "Could Liu Xianyang be at the blacksmith shop, and was really threatened personally, so he had to sell the blue and black scarlet armor?" For example, there are minions of four surnames and ten clans hidden in the shop, and they secretly taught Liu Xianyang a lesson?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Ping'an shook his head and said: "No, Liu Xianyang is definitely not the kind of person who bows his head and admits defeat when he is threatened, the first time I saw him, even if he was beaten by the gang of Fulu Street and vomited blood, he didn't say a word of convincing, he kept carrying it, and he was almost beaten to death. ”

Ning Yao asked again: "The blood is strong, the courage of the will, the promise is not over life and death, in fact, there is never a shortage of alley rangers, I have seen a lot of them with my own eyes along the way." It's just that once the great profit is now, there is a different temptation, can he Liu Xianyang keep his heart?"

Chen Ping'an fell into contemplation again, and finally said with a firm look in his eyes: "Liu Xianyang will not be a loser because of what outsiders have given, he has a deep affection for his grandfather, unless it is really like what he said, his grandfather told him before his death, the treasure armor can be sold, but don't sell it cheaply, and the sword scripture must stay in their Liu family, and it will be left to future generations in the future." ”

Ning Yao said: "As far as I know, that piece of Monkey Armor is in good condition, but it is not too rare, but that Sword Sutra, since it can be coveted by Zhengyang Mountain for a long time, and it does not hesitate to send two people to hunt for treasure here, it is clear that it is regarded as a thing in the bag, so it must be a good thing." Therefore, the decision to sell the treasure armor and keep the sword scripture makes sense. ”

Chen Ping'an nodded.

Ning Yao stroked the green scabbard, his eyes were cold, "Be careful, I will accompany you to Liu Xianyang's house, and send that woman first, since Liu Xianyang personally said that he wanted to sell it, then the box loaded with the treasure armor will be moved, and then I will go to Ruan's shop with you, meet Liu Xianyang, and ask him what he thinks, if it is really his grandfather's dying will, you and I don't need to point fingers, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, it shouldn't be you who care, don't be blind." If not, let him tell him what he wants, and I'll get that box back again!"

Chen Ping'an asked worriedly, "Miss Ning, is your body okay?"

Ning Yao sneered: "If it is against the old ape who moves the mountain in Zhengyang Mountain, it will definitely be disgraced, but if it is that girl, in this town, I will have enough one hand." ”

Chen Ping'an was curious: "The mountain moving ape?"

Ning Yao said perfunctorily: "An ancient fierce beast species left in this world, the real body is a giant ape as big as a mountain peak, and it is rumored that once the true body is revealed, it can lift a mountain from the ground and carry it on its back. It's just that these are all rumors, after all, no one has really seen it. Zhengyang Mountain has been holding back for hundreds of years, in fact, the background is very thick, although the sect's ranking in Dongbao Aquarius is not high, but it should not be underestimated, so we can not quarrel with them, it is the best, there is a dispute......"

Chen Ping'an cautiously asked, "What should I do if there is a dispute?"

Ning Yao stood up, pushed the knife out of the sheath with his thumb, and looked at the straw sandals boy with an idiotic look on his face, and the girl said righteously: "What else can you do?

Chen Ping'an swallowed.

After that, the young man carried a basket on his back, took the girl who put on the hat again and wore a green knife at her waist, and slowly walked to Liu Xianyang's ancestral house together.

Ning Yao turned his head and glanced at the young man's basket and asked, "Why is there so little today?"

Chen Ping'an sighed, "Ma Kuxuan, oh, it's the grandson of Granny Ma over there in Xinghua Lane, who is about the same age as me, and now it seems that he has completely changed a person, according to him, it is the feng shui of the town that has changed, so the stones in these creeks are becoming more and more unable to retain 'qi'." ”

Ning Yao's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "He is right, this town is about to change." You'd better get out of town as soon as possible, even if you leave and come back, it's better than staying in the town all the time. ”

Chen Ping'an is not a tendon who does not hit the south wall and does not look back, he has been used to being alone since he was a child, but he knows more about the warmth and priority of human feelings, nodded and smiled: "Yes, as long as I see Liu Xianyang and Master Ruan have drunk apprenticeship tea, I will leave here immediately." At the best time, Master Ruan also promised to forge a sword for you. ”

Looking at the guy with a face full of joy, Ning Yao wondered: "Things that have nothing to do with you are also worth being so happy?"

probably thought that the two were a little familiar with each other, Chen Ping'an was not as secretive as before, and said confidently: "Liu Xianyang, Gu Cang, plus Miss Ning, you think, there are so many people in the world, I also care about the quality of the three people, why am I a bad person?"

Ning Yao smiled and asked, "Among the three people, how many am I?"

Chen Ping'an said sincerely and humiliatingly: "Third for the time being." ”

Ning Yao took off the saber, held it in his hand casually, and gently patted the young man's shoulder with the scabbard, and said with a smile: "Chen Ping'an, you have to thank me for not killing." ”

Chen Ping'an asked inexplicably, "Don't you feel annoyed by the decoction?"

Ning Yao was stunned and understood his thoughts, "Chen Ping'an, I suddenly found that even if you go outside in the future, you can live quite well." ”

Chen Ping'an was not greedy at all, and said sincerely: "It's as good as now." ”

Ning Yao was noncommittal, and gently shook the green knife in his hand, like a country girl shaking a flower branch.

At the corner of the alley of Liu Xianyang's house, a black shadow suddenly burst out, Ning Yao was almost about to pull out the knife out of the sheath, but fortunately held back in time, it turned out to be a yellow dog, revolving around Chen Ping'an, Chen Ping'an bent down and rubbed the yellow dog's head, got up and said with a smile:" It was raised by the family next door to Liu Xianyang, called Laifu, for many years, the courage is particularly small, in the past, Liu Xianyang and I often took it up the mountain, it would only follow behind our ass to join in the fun, Liu Xianyang always disliked it for not being able to catch the hare and pheasant, always said that Laifu is not as good as even a cat, like the cat raised by Ma Kuxuan, some people see that it can often pick pheasants and snakes at home. But Laifu is old, ten years old, very old. ”

Speaking of this, the straw sandals boy couldn't help but bend down again, touched Laifu's head, and said softly: "If you are a lot older, you have to serve the old, right? Don't worry, when I make a lot of money in the future, I will not be hungry for you." ”

Ning Yao shook her head, she couldn't empathize with this.

Even if she has traveled all the way, she has seen many people and many things, such as the high-ranking immortal masters, the ordinary people in the market with the naked eye, the brocade clothes and angry horses of the children of the powerful, the fairy demeanor of the wind and the volley, and the joys and sorrows of many joys and sorrows.

Ning Yao

There are Buddhist walkers, in the bleak stormy night, walking barefoot in the dervish, singing the Buddha's name, and the pace is firm. There are poor scholars who went to Beijing to take the exam, in the dilapidated ancient temple, for the gentle thrush of the fox in human skin, and finally set off again, even if he knew that he was already a slight frost on his temples, he had no regrets.

There are young Taoists with the title of Heavenly Master, walking alone among the ancient battlefields and mass graves, silently reciting the immeasurable Heavenly Venerable of Fusheng, and not hesitating to consume their own cultivation to lead a path of transcendence for the lonely souls and wild ghosts. At the beginning of his tenure, he personally banned the obscenity of the Dragon King Temple, a middle-aged civil official, with chapped lips and oozing blood, on the edge of the dry riverbed, he put down the incense case, hoarsely recited the "Dragon King Praying for Rain", and finally for the people in the jurisdiction, facing the Dragon King Temple, kneeling down to ask for sin.

There are old people who are old in the previous dynasty, and they don't want to take their sons from the new dynasty, but only take their little grandson who is Mengxue, ascending to the heights, facing the old mountains and rivers of the broken family and country, the old tears are horizontal, and tell their beloved grandsons what the states and counties that have been renamed should be called. There is a leaf boat in the thousand-mile long gorge, straight downstream, there are scholars on both sides of the ape sound, high-spirited, read to the place where the eyes are quick to understand, looking up to the sky and roaring. There is a woman with an armored face, and after the smoke of gunpowder falls, the horse drinking is the most stunning.

Along the way, all the way to see and hear, all the way to the understanding, Ning Yao's heart to the Tao has always been as steady as a rock, without any mud and water.

Now, Ning Yao has seen one more scene.

A lonely boy in the alley, carrying a basket tied to a fish basket and touching the head of an old dog, the boy is full of hope for the future.

Not long after the two returned to Liu Xianyang's house, someone knocked on the courtyard door, Chen Ping'an and Ning Yao glanced at each other, and then Chen Ping'an went out to open the door, Ning Yao was just standing at the door of the house, but she glanced back at the long sword lying quietly on the counter.

The person who knocked on the door was Lu Zhengchun, naturally headed by the woman, and there were also two loyal servants of the Lu family.

Lu Zhengchun had a kind face and asked softly: "You are Liu Xianyang's friend, your name is Chen Ping'an, right? We are here to move the box, Liu Xianyang should have greeted you." So you can rest assured to accept this bag of money, in addition, our wife promised Liu Xianyang's conditions, and it will be handed over to him in the future. ”

Chen Ping'an took the bag of money, got out of the way, the graceful and generous woman took the lead into the courtyard, Lu Zhengchun followed with two subordinates, the woman personally opened the red lacquered wooden box that had been placed in the main hall, squatted down, stretched out her hand to stroke the ugly armor, her eyes appeared for a moment, and then it was difficult to hide the heat and desire, but this emotion was quickly restrained by the woman, and returned to her normal look, after she stood up, she signaled Lu Zhengchun to move the box, the thing is not heavy, after all, there is only one armor in it.

The woman was the last to leave the house, and when she walked to the threshold, she glanced back at the straw sandals boy and smiled, "Liu Xianyang really regards you as a friend." ”

Chen Ping'an, who didn't know the deep meaning, had no choice but to say nothing, and just silently sent them and the group out of the courtyard.

In the end, Chen Ping'an stood outside the door, refusing to move for a long time, and Ning Yao came to him.

The woman walked behind Lu Zhengchun and the others, and after walking to the end of the alley, she turned her head to look and saw the young man and girl standing side by side, and said with a playful smile: "It's good to be young, but you have to live." ”

————

In the covered bridge that crossed the creek, a tall boy lay in a pool of blood, his body convulsed, and he kept vomiting blood.

Only this time, this tall boy was never able to hear a certain black and thin guy shouting "dead man" over and over again.

On the steps at the north end of the bridge, there were crowds of people, discussions, and they watched the excitement from a distance, but they didn't dare to approach the young man, for fear of getting into trouble.

Two people walked briskly into the covered bridge, and the man squatted down and took the pulse of the young man's wrist, his face became more and more heavy.

The girl in Tsing Yi hated it very much, gritted her teeth and said: "I smashed his chest with one punch, what a cruel method!"

Men don't speak.

The girl in Tsing Yi with a ponytail said angrily: "Dad, you just watched Liu Xianyang being beaten to death like this? Liu Xianyang is half of your apprentice!"

The man never let go of the young man's wrist, his face was expressionless, and he said indifferently: "How did I know that the dignified Yangshan was so unruly this time." ”

The girl got up suddenly, "You don't care, I'll take care of it!"

The man raised his head and asked slowly, "Ruan Xiu, do you want your father to collect your body?"

The girl strode forward, moving forward, and said in a deep voice: "I, Ruan Xiu, don't just eat one thing!

There was a faint thunderous fury between the man's eyebrows.

Half of the reason is that his daughter is stunned, and it is more naturally the vicious attack of the old ape in Zhengyang Mountain.

The man thought about it, since he hadn't officially taken over Qi Jingchun's position, did it mean that he didn't have to be so reasonable?

The girl in Tsing Yi suddenly stopped.

The girl suddenly saw an emaciated young man running madly towards her from the end of the covered bridge.

She saw the familiar figure, wearing a pair of straw sandals, with a expressionless face and no waves.

The two passed by in an instant, and the girl wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it, and for no reason, she felt very wronged, and she shed tears all of a sudden.

When the straw sandals boy sat beside him, reaching out to grab one of the tall boy's hands, Liu Xianyang, whose vision had already blurred, seemed to have a little more energy all of a sudden, tried to squeeze out a smiling face, and said intermittently: "That woman said that if I don't hand over the treasure armor, she can kill you...... She also said that anyway, she came to our town from mother and son, and one of them was expelled, and she came out of this price, I am afraid, I am afraid that she will really kill you...... What I told you before was not all a lie, my grandfather did tell me those things, so I thought it was a big deal to sell it...... It's just that just now she asked people to go to me again, saying that the old man was crazy, and as soon as he heard that I didn't have a sword scripture, she insisted on killing you first and then killing me, I was really worried about you and wanted to say hello to you...... I ran all the way here, and then I was punched by that old bastard, and it hurt a little......"

The straw sandals boy lowered his head and gently wiped the blood from the corner of Liu Xianyang's mouth, the young man wrinkled his dark and emaciated face, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, believe me, don't talk, I'll take you home......"

The tall young man's strong spiritual aura gradually faded, his eyes wandered, and he muttered: "I don't regret it, don't blame yourself, really...... It is...... I'm just a little scared, it turns out that I'm also afraid of death. ”

In the end, the tall young man clenched his only friend's hand and whimpered: "Chen Ping'an, I'm really afraid of death." ”

The straw sandals boy sat on the ground, holding Liu Xianyang's hand with one hand and propping his fist on his knee with the other.

Gasping for breath and desperately breathing.

A young boy, at this time he is like an old dog.

The straw sandals boy's eyes were red.

When he wants justice from God, he is more like a dog.

Chen Ping'an doesn't want to be like this, and he doesn't want to do this again in his life!
