Beijing, Chang'an.

The first rays of light in the morning break through the horizon and illuminate the best city in the world.

A horse came from the east side of the inner city, and immediately the man wore a golden crown on his head, a red embroidered fish and dragon scarlet robe, a handsome and masculine face, and a brown and simple long sword hanging from the side of the saddle.

Who is it if it's not summer, autumn and winter?

"Imperial City Forbidden Land, the prince dismounts!"

Xia Qiudong, who was on the horse, took out a gold medal from his waist and held it high above his head.

The gold medal is engraved with four words.

"Your Majesty Doesn't Stop"

"This official is the official Yu Longwei commanding the affairs of the summer, autumn and winter, and he is ordered to go out of the city by His Majesty!"

Seeing this, the captain of the garrison hurriedly evacuated the guards of the city, and then held a spear in his hand and knelt on the ground.

This order is the highest pass order of Dali, see this card as if to see the emperor in person.

Xia Qiudong didn't look at them, his eyes looked firmly ahead, looking at the morning glow.

Inside the Qiankun Palace.

After the Yellow Silk case, the new Kandi sat on the throne as always, and Zhao Ying, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, still stood respectfully, bowing his head slightly.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, Xia Qiudong knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.

"The Heavenly Palace of Falling Whale Mountain has come out, and the Zunsheng Jade in the hands of the three families of Jiangnan Province must be in hand, the whole world is not the king's land, and that Heavenly Palace must also be mine!"

Three years ago, the Liuyun Prefecture Falling Whale Mountain Range shook, the mountain collapsed, and the people were killed and injured countless times.

Unexpectedly, it brought back a shocking news.

The mountain collapsed to reveal a black city buried deep in it, the shape of which is indescribable.

During the period, it was like a city on earth, with a lot of traffic and a flow of people, but it was a statue, dead and silent, and strange and abnormal.

The only thing that was functioning was a huge flying sword that surrounded the towering structure in the center of the city.

It's not a good thing, but that's it.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and soon the news spread to the rivers and lakes, and then the whole world, countless people rushed to Liuyun Prefecture Whale Mountain.

According to Gu Dali's book "Strange Chronicles of Heaven and Earth":

There is a city in the sky, called the Heavenly Palace, the sun and the moon live on it, the true immortals come and go in the meantime, stand in the world and exist forever, but it can not be said that the years are long.

The days are unknown, the war is in the sky, the sun and the moon are separated, the true immortals are like rain, the heavenly palace sinks into the sea, the name is called the whale, no one knows.

At first, the students of the Hanlin Academy who were annotating this book only thought it was an absurd legend, but when the rumored city actually appeared, people remembered this strange story.

And what really shocked the entire rivers and lakes was the appearance of the Sword River Sword Valley engraved with countless Heavenly Palace secrets and secret methods, and countless scattered people in the rivers and lakes and famous sects all flocked here, trying to occupy a place for themselves and the sect.

Gangnam Province, Lingju City.

Everyone suppressed the urge to go up and beat people, and looked at the sloppy rosacea middle-aged man with a smile on his face in front of them.

"Let's go, this person is a well-known madman in Lingzhou City, even if he says that he is the emperor, I am not surprised."

Several people crowded around the inexplicable fortune-telling booth that left the sloppy middle-aged man, but his voice came from behind him.

"Who is psychopathic? I'm also very good at psychiatry! ”

Wei Zigeng listened to the strange words in his mouth, and felt that this middle-aged man was even more confused.

"A man with such a sword should never be like this."

Looking at the figures in the distance, the sloppy middle-aged man with a rosacea nose had deep eyes.

Border City Villa, Stone House.

The huge mansion is hidden in the continuous Dangyang Mountain, and the base camp of the most mysterious spy organization in the rivers and lakes, the "Lip and Tooth Sword", is in it.

"Where's my dad?"

The young man wearing a complex Chinese pattern and dark color robe had a grim face, like a knife carving, his eyes were sharp, and he was holding a goose feather knife that was only two feet long.

A young man who is inconspicuous, there are few rumors of him in the rivers and lakes.

But the knife in his hand is very famous.

Today's god arithmetic hall master, God operator Wei Wuxian once made the world list, and then added the world's famous sword list 13, this Yanling knife is impressively listed, once beheaded seventy-six in the desert battle, the thirteenth in the world's famous knife list, the name of the knife is lonely.

The little guy who was staring at trembled, his lips trembled, and he lowered his head deeply, not daring to say a word.

Does he recognize this man?

Joke, how could he not recognize this person.

The young man in front of him is named Shi Chongji, the eldest son of Shi Mu of Border City Villa, ruthless, murderous, one of the most clever killers in Border City Villa, and the sharpest knife in Border City Villa.

"With ...... In ...... with the second son In the study. ”

Hearing this, Shi Chongji's eyes became even more gloomy, and the green tendons of the hand holding the Yanling knife were bulging.

"Got it."

After speaking, he walked in the direction of the study, and the little guy behind him was covered with sweat on his forehead.

"What the hell am I like to be like that nerd!"

In the study, a tall and burly man stood with his hands in his hands, dressed in a dark robe, and the scars at the corners of his eyes were shocking, in front of him was a young man who looked like a weak scholar, and his temperament was in stark contrast to that of a middle-aged man.

"Chongyu, for the recent events in Jiangnan Province, my father wants to hear your thoughts."

Shi Chongyu, the second son of Border City Villa, was smart and clever since childhood, and was accepted as a registered disciple by Liang Shu of Huze Academy in the south of the Yangtze River when he was a child, teaching the art of warp and weft and game theory, and then traveled the world with him, and finally worshiped the sage Liu Ziyuan in the Confucian Temple in Qingyangzhou.

Shi Chongyu unfolded the folding fan, the sandalwood on the desk curled Nana, the breeze blew, and the young man smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking like he was holding a victory ticket.

"The Heavenly Palace of Luojing Mountain was born, and the three families of Jiangnan Province each held a piece of Zunsheng jade that was said to be able to open the gate of heaven, and when there was no full certainty that the gate of heaven could be broken, these three pieces of Zunsheng jade were the best attempt, whether it was true or not, Jiangnan Dao would definitely change the sky."

Shi Chongyu drank a cup of tea, Shi Mu stood, he sits, but in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with this, and it was even a matter of course.

"The teachings of the saints are weak and unusable, but they are restrained and unbearable. Pinghu Villa has strong financial resources and is the best in the world, half of the world's taxes are out of Jiangnan, and half of Jiangnan is from the Cheng family, which is what the imperial court needs, so at least in the near future they are safe, my border villa has always been low-key, coupled with the particularity and the chips we hold, the border city villa is solid, on the other hand, the Jiangnan villa is dangerous. ”

Shi Chongyu shook his head, leaving a free time for Shi Mu to ask questions.

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

Shi Chongyu nodded with satisfaction, he enjoyed his father's inquiry very much.

"The silk in the world is out of Jiangnan, and the silk in Jiangnan is out of Yangjun, even so, it still can't change the fact that he has been weak for a long time. Yang Bofan, the old head of the Yang family, has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes for many years and has not asked about the world, and the eldest prince Yang Qiyun is a minister, but who doesn't know that the military department has always been the forbidden body of the hussar general Fu Daohua, he can't do it for a long time, and the emperor of the Li family is suspicious by nature, and he won't let him do it for a long time. As for Yang Nuying, the head of the Yang family? If she had tied the knot with the immortals, Jiangnan Province would not have been divided by Pinghu Villa in half, persimmons have always been soft and easy to handle, if the court really has a big move, Jiangnan Villa bears the brunt, we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight for the time being. ”

Shi Mu nodded, with a smile on his face.

"Then Yang Qiyun didn't know, but he didn't expect that even the old master of Yang would look away, a sword cultivator who entered the upper three realms from the Hedao, Yang Bofan's old thing actually allowed his eldest son to force him into a madman, that is the upper three realms that he entered by the Hedao! The monks and martial artists in the world are like carps crossing the river, and there are not a few people in the upper three realms, but how many people can enter the upper three realms from the joint path? The former Yan King Jicheng, the immortal Li Canglan, and now the disciples of Yuyu Lou Taixuan Zhenjun in Yuzhou City, these are all characters who are expected to achieve the immortal realm, if we can grasp Li Canglan, we Jiangnan will not be so passive, and maybe we can also fight against the imperial court like Yuyulou. ”

What is Harmony? One into three, three into thousand, this is a child's walking and running, is a practice. And the three thousand return to one, the road to the ultimate simplicity, regain the pure heart and clear state of mind, that is, the road.

Cultivation, whether it is a martial artist or a monk, from the middle four realms to the upper three realms is not achieved overnight, the water is full and high, and this vessel is itself. In addition to accumulating over time, the second thing is to cultivate the mind, and the state of mind is to coordinate the cultivation.

There is a flood ditch between the middle four realms and the upper three realms, the name is Hedao, some people find another way, choose to build a bridge on it, leading to the upper three realms, but this bridge is under the baptism of the years, the foundation is not stable and collapses under the washing of flowing water, and some people choose to fill this flood ditch, so that even if it is self-abandoned, it can return to the upper three realms at any time, which is the way to achieve immortals.

A few days ago, the news that Yuyulou Taixuan Zhenjun's only personal disciple had entered the Hedao realm quickly spread throughout Jianghuai and Huai, coupled with the miscellaneous of the three sects and nine streams coming and going from the Jianghu Inn, the entire Jianghu was almost boiling for a while.

Thinking of this, Shi Mu was even more distressed.

"Bang bang."

There was a knock on the door, Shi Chongyu suddenly sat up from the seat, put away the folding fan, and stood in the dark, Shi Mu's brows furrowed.

"Come in."

With a "crunch", the door opened inward, Shi Chongji held a two-foot-long Yanling knife in his hand, his eyes looked at Shi Chongyu in the shadows, and then bowed his head and saluted respectfully to Shi Mu.

"Daddy."

They were originally brothers of the same mother, but due to the different living environments, their personalities are also very different.

Shi Mu sighed and said:

"Come in and sit down and pour your own tea."

Shi Chongji drank a cup of tea, and after not saying a word for a long time, Shi Mu opened his mouth and said:

"Chongji, do you know what happened to my father calling you this time?"

Shi Chongji put down the teacup and shook his head.

"You should know what happened in the Ayara Prefecture Underworld."

Without thinking, Shi Chongji opened his mouth and said:

"The Liangqiu brothers and sisters fought among themselves, and in a fit of anger, they killed Liu Zhong, the king of the Yama of the Five Palaces, and then absconded in fear of crime."

Then he seemed to think of something.

"Did they flee to Gangnam? Dad, do you want to? Nothing good will come of it if you have something to do with Hades. ”

石牧 says:

"Naturally, it won't be those two calamity stars, helping them will definitely anger the Hades, what I want you to pick up is Hou Yang, the king of the four halls and five senses of the Hades."

Hearing this, Rao is as calm as Shi Chongyu couldn't help but be surprised.

"Hou Yang, the king of facial features?"

Shi Mu let out an "um" and nodded.

The most mysterious organization in the rivers and lakes, no one even knows why they were established, as if another river and lake independent of the world hidden in the shadows of the rivers and lakes.

Follow Mount Tai to lower the capital city, set up ten halls of Yama, the division of duties is different, maintaining the final order of the rivers and lakes, all of them are cultivated to be profound, and they cannot be named.

It is rumored that there is even an Emperor Xudu on it, but it is impossible to verify whether it is false.

In the early years, because he saw a family of daughters-in-law who drowned them because they gave birth to a baby girl, Hou Yang was angry and put the family in front of the tomb of the poor mother and daughter.

He was not a good man, but he was a man of extreme justice.

The murder of Liu Zhong, the king of the five halls of Yama, when everyone still had doubts, it was Hou Yang who strongly advocated immediate execution, which led to the escape of the Liangqiu brothers and sisters from the underworld.

"Yes, it's Hou Yang of the Fourth Palace, don't make enemies with him, anger him, even I can't protect you, go!"

Shi Chongji bowed down, looked at Shi Chongyu coldly, and strode out of the study after retreating.

"Dad, leave this matter to the eldest brother, will it ......?"

Shi Mu said indifferently:

"He's my Shi Mu's son."

Shi Chongyu nodded, looking at the back of the eldest brother who had gone away, that figure had been standing in front of him since he was a child, and had never made him worry at all.

Thinking about it, Shi Chongyu frowned slightly.

"But for some reason, my eldest brother and I have become more and more estranged."

Outside the study, Shi Chongji's left hand holding the Yanling knife was furious.

"I'm your own son!"

There was a man walking on the side, five short figures, with a flattering smile.

"Childe, there is news from Lanxiangyuan, a batch of fresh goods has been delivered recently, ask Childe when he will enjoy it?"

Hearing this, Shi Chongji's expression softened and showed a playful smile.

"Let her keep it for Young Master Ben, and Young Master Ben will go tonight!"

In the evening, Pinghu Villa, Chengfu.

"Brother Xu, Brother Wei, I'll take you to see the real Jiangnan style later."

The three of them raised their wine glasses in the air, Cheng Xi, the little son of the Cheng family, raised his eyebrows at the two, the two were confused, and the second lady sighed when she heard it and shook her head.

After the dinner, Wei Zigeng, Xu Yue, Cheng Xi and Cheng Huan walked together on the main road in the city.

Wei Zigeng and Xu Yue looked at Cheng Huan on the side suspiciously, which gave the second lady goosebumps.

"Tell ...... I'll tell you, Ben ...... Ben Gongzi doesn't like men. ”

Listening to her pretended hoarse voice, the two laughed heartily, and Xu Yue was the first to speak:

"Hahaha, Miss Cheng Er, no, Cheng Er Gongzi, I don't think you will still be so magnificent in disguise as a man, and you are also extremely handsome in this Jiangnan Province where scholars are gathered."

Tonight's Cheng Huan was dressed in white, his head full of green silk was only held up with a white hosta, and he was holding a pure white white ripple long knife, with a graceful demeanor and extraordinary handsomeness.

"You'll know why when you get there."

After walking for a while, the building that greeted their eyes made Xu Yue's smile stop abruptly.

"This ...... This is...... Prostitution?! ”

Cheng Xi on the side didn't know where to take out a folding fan, Xu Yue looked behind him with a little confusion, wondering if he had taken out a folding fan from somewhere.

The little boy unfolded the folding fan and slapped it on Xu Yue's head without a trace.

"This place is not called a prostitution hall, this place is called a incense house."

The warbler flies in the leaves, and flies into the group of flowers and is invisible.

The garden is full of spring, attracting heroes to bend their waists.

Wei Zigeng looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

"If you don't come to Jiangnan, you can't come to Jiangnan."
