After a few days of practice, Chu Xiqing's boxing method has achieved a little success, and he has a lot of confidence in walking in the city.

One day, Chu Xuping took Chu Xiqing to the restaurant. It's called "improving food". In fact, the Chu family suddenly had meat, but Chu Xiqing rarely went, so he pestered Chu Xuping to go.

When he went to the restaurant to speak, Chu Xiqing found that a storyteller was telling the story of the fairy and ghost.

After ordering food with Xiao Er, Chu Xiqing ran to listen to the book.

What the storyteller said about the gods flying to the sky, the thousands of miles of flying swords to take people's heads, and what evil demons have horns on their bodies and are full of demonic energy, Chu Xiqing was shocked when he heard it. These are very different from those in the Romance of the Rivers and Lakes, which are nothing more than fists and kicks, but here are spells.

Chu Xiqing was so engrossed in hearing that he didn't know when the food arrived, and he didn't come back to his senses until Chu Xuping called him. Maybe because of eating out, this meal feels different.

Chu Xiqing lowered his head to eat, and suddenly raised his head and asked Chu Xuping: "Brother, is there really an immortal in the world?" ”

Chu Xuping thought for a while and replied, "Maybe." ”

Chu Xiqing let out an "oh" and continued to eat. He didn't know what was going on in his head again.

The meal ended quickly, but the two didn't plan to go back like this, Chu Xuping took Chu Xiqing to walk around the street and buy some food.

About an hour later, the two of them went back to Chu Mansion. Seeing a person wandering in front of the door from a distance, Chu Xiqing was very puzzled, there were few guests at home before, not to mention that he had never seen this before.

Chu Xuping, on the other hand, was very happy, walked towards the man with a smile, and said loudly: "Brother Han! ”

The man was even happier and said, "Brother Chu, you're back, let me wait." ”

The person who came was Han Yi, the only son of Jingzhao Yin Han Liang, who was a good friend of Chu Xuping, and was taken care of by Chu Xuping during the period when he had not yet made his career, and later he was recommended by Han Liang. Although his father is not a small official, Han Yi did not seek a half-official position, Han Liang does not seem to want Han Yi to be an official in the capital, more like letting him go out of Beijing, this may be to sharpen him, or it may be to protect him, it is unknown.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Chu Xuping asked, "Brother Han, why did you suddenly come to me?" ”

Han Yi replied: "Although the capital is big, it is boring to have no friends, and my father asked me to travel, so I wanted to see what kind of place can raise a wonderful person like Brother Chu." I have visited most of the scenic city, and it is indeed an outstanding person. ”

Han Yi noticed the child behind Chu Xuping, leaned over and asked with a smile, "Child, who are you?" ”

Chu Xiqing grabbed the sugar gourd with one hand, pointed at Chu Xuping with the other, and said, "I am his younger brother, my name is Chu Xiqing, who are you?" ”

Han Yi also pointed to Chu Xuping and said, "I'm his friend, my name is Han Yi." ”

Chu Xiqing nodded: "Well, well, one family, one family." ”

Then Han Yi took out a piece of jade pendant and handed it to Chu Xiqing: "Come, Xiqing, a meeting gift for you." Chu Xiqing glanced at Chu Xuping, the latter nodded, Chu Xiqing happily accepted it, and thought in his heart: "Okay, this person can handle it." Han Yi smiled and rubbed Chu Xiqing's head.

After the three of them entered the door, Chu Xiqing poured two cups of tea, and then ran to ponder the boxing technique. Leave the two of them chatting in the hall.

Chu Xuping asked: "Have you found a good inn to live in, if you don't find it, you can stay at my house." ”

Han Yi shook his head and said, "No, no, the shopkeeper of the largest restaurant in Jingcheng is my father's old friend, I will live there, and I won't be able to stay for a few days, after all, I am out to travel, and I can't stay in one place all the time." ”

Chu Xuping nodded. Han Yi said suddenly: "Oh, tell you, the national teacher personally visited my father before, and the two of them didn't know what to say, and then the national teacher also saw me and praised me for being handsome. ”

"Oh, and that?" "No, I'll talk to you."

In a mountain not far from Jingcheng, a man in red was holding a spear, his long hair fluttering, and the tip of the spear was pointed at a young man in white opposite. The young man in white covered his eyes with a white cloth, and beside him stood a handsome boy holding a rectangular object in his hand, wrapped in cloth.

The man in red said provocatively: "Heh, Lin Yuan, you are not blind, you just use a white cloth strip to block your eyes, don't give your eyes to others, you have to be a demon, today Grandpa Xu will make you really blind." ”

The man named Lin Yuan frowned and said, "Xu Wu, I remember that I have no grievances with you, but you want to embarrass me?" What does it have to do with you when I cover my eyes? ”

The man in red, Xu Wu, sneered, and stabbed the two of them with a shot, the red light flashed on the tip of the gun, Lin Yuan pushed the boy away, and then slapped Xu Wu with a palm, Xu Wu dodged sideways, and another shot swept, directly cutting off Lin Yuan's head.

Lin Yuan jumped up suddenly, jumped to the boy's side with one foot on the tip of the gun, took the rectangular object, and peeled off the cloth on it, revealing the piano inside, which had seven strings.

Lin Yuan was very displeased, and said, "If you have to be like this, don't blame Lin for being polite." After speaking, he swept all the strings with one hand, and for a while, there seemed to be seven sword qi attacking Xu Wu.

Xu Wu resisted with a spear, and the surrounding vegetation was destroyed, the fallen leaves were flying, and there were a few more cracks on the ground.

Xu Wu laughed and said, "It's good to come!" The spear in his hand burst into flames, and the temperature around him suddenly rose a lot.

Xu Wu rushed towards Lin Yuan with an arrow step, and where the gun slashed, an explosion sounded in the air! While Lin Yuan dodged, he hooked the strings with his fingers and popped out, the sound of the piano was beautiful, but it was about to kill people at this time.

The boy on the side had never seen such a scene, and his face turned pale with fright, and he only dared to shout: "Son, be careful!" ”

After a few back and forth, Lin Yuan felt his fingers tingle slightly, and said calmly: "Brute strength is not small, but that's all." ”

"Heh, there's a lot of nonsense, that's all." Xu Wu said disdainfully.

Lin Yuan held the qin in one hand, and the other hand flew quickly, and more than a dozen sword qi popped out one after another. Xu Wu waved his gun to resist, saw the opportunity, grabbed a flaw, bullied forward, and smashed down with a shot.

At this time, Lin Yuan quickly took off the white cloth on his eyes, pulled out a long sword from the bottom of the piano, and swung out a sword, Xu Wu secretly said that it was not good, and if he wanted to stop him, he could only forcibly restrain his body, and finally the long sword left a not deep but long wound on Xu Wu's chest.

Xu Wu stepped back, looked down at the wound, sighed, and said, "I didn't expect that there was still this hand, careless." ”

Lin Yuan, who opened his eyes, held a long sword, a sword slashed out, and the sword qi directly took Xu Wu's head, Xu Wu jumped on the branch, turned around and fled, and said with a smile: "You can't die today, grandpa's body of essence and blood is precious, and it can't be lost. ”

Lin Yuan watched Xu Wu escape, but did not take advantage of the momentum to pursue, and collected his sword and returned to the qin. sighed and said, "I didn't expect to expose this sword in advance, I'm afraid it will be guarded against in the future." ”

The leaves are fluttering, and a battle that does not belong to the mortal world ends.

When Lin Yuan and Xu Wu were fighting, three people in Jingcheng Qingyun Temple were looking at them.

One of them was wearing a four-clawed python robe, smiling, and beside him stood a black-clad guard. The other two are Chu Xuping and Xu Guanzhu.

When he saw Lin Yuan picking up the white cloth, King Cheng'an spoke: "I heard that this king's subordinates said that Xu Daochang had said that he could buy it, and then this king came to buy it with sincerity today, and I hope that the road will be perfect." ”

Xu Guan brushed the dust in his hand, "As long as you don't grab it, feel free." King Cheng An smiled.

On the side, Chu Xuping frowned slightly, and asked, "Did King Cheng'an ever think that His Majesty might already know?" ”

"Brother Huang? Of course he knew, with the well-informed level of the people in the Imperial City Division, I was afraid that the royal brother of this king would know as soon as he left the capital. ”

Chu Xuping asked again: "Does King Cheng'an think it is better to cultivate the Tao and live forever or to keep his name in the red dust?" ”

King Cheng'an glanced at Chu Xuping and said, "Taifu, this king thinks it's all good, and this king has to have both." ”

At this time, Xu Guan said: "Since you are already a mountain person, why should you be greedy for mundane things, when you will be entangled in mundane affairs, you will not be free." Cultivating the Tao is the Great Dao of Immortality, not your own selfish desires, and if you are like this, I am afraid that it will not last long. ”

King Cheng An laughed softly: "Why don't you bother with Daoist Xu, the stone hammer belongs to the Qingyun Sect outside the city, this king is just to tell Daoist Xu on his face, so as not to misunderstand Daochang." ”

said that King An and Hu Cong left, and the tea on the table was not moved.

Leaving Chu Xuping and Xu Guanzhu, both of them were silent.

Lord Xu Guan broke the silence and said: "Hey, I don't know the goods, the poor Dao gave him Qingxuanguan tea to give him a face, but he didn't want it, it's really a ......" and was about to pour out the bowl of tea.

Chu Xuping hurriedly stopped it, and waved his hand to create a barrier to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping, although Xu Guan had already done it before. "Why waste it, it's not easy to grow tea in this place in Jingcheng, disgusting is disgusting, after all, I haven't touched it yet."

Lord Xu Guan shook his head and said, "Poor Dao still thinks it's good, dirty eyes." ”

After a moment of arguing, Chu Xuping suddenly said, "Cultivation doesn't need to be far away. ”

Lord Xu Guan smiled and said: "People live for a lifetime to fight, mortals fight in the hearts of mortals and the way of the world, we cultivators are just slightly different, in fact, the same people's hearts, the same way. Who has escaped from the Red Dust? Who has ever been an immortal? It's all delusional. ”

Chu Xuping gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Daochang Xu is worthy of being Daochang Xu, with a high realm and a thorough understanding. ”

"Chu boy, your good days are coming to an end, I'm afraid you will really be like that duckweed in the future."

Chu Xuping's tone was indifferent, his face was indifferent, and he said, "Who is afraid? It's just that...... I'm looking for a place that is safe and not so safe, and I have to have a lot of people. ”

Lord Xu Guan looked at this man who had grown from a teenager to a young man and asked, "So, do you have any plans to let your younger brother cultivate the Dao?" By the way, your father seems to be a cultivator. ”

Chu Xuping nodded, "I will let Xiqing embark on the path of cultivation, but not now, in the future, after I send them away." ”

Xu Guanzhu patted Chu Xuping on the back, Chu Xuping shook his head with a smile, and said: "Receive the light in the court, and receive the light in the world." ”

Lord Xu sighed, but looking at the ancient singing and dancing place, only the birds and birds were sad at dusk.

Why bother?

The autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves and blew the clouds.

The child, who has been practicing boxing for many days, has a deeper understanding of boxing, and has added a graceful bearing to him.

Although I can't fly the eaves and walk the wall, I am very satisfied.

Outside the city, King Cheng'an took a carriage to Qingyun Sect, and was warmly greeted after identifying himself.

Although Qingyun Sect hesitated on the matter of the stone hammer, he finally agreed, after all, the form is stronger than the person.

Lin Yuan, who was in white clothes, took the boy to settle down at an inn in Jingcheng, planning to continue his journey overnight.

In the evening, Chu Xuping and Chu Xiqing sat and chatted.

Chu Xiqing suddenly asked: "Brother, isn't the most famous thing in our Jingcheng is porcelain, brother, do you know how to make porcelain?" ”

Chu Xuping shook his head, he patronized and studied in his early years, and he really didn't have time to learn this.

Chu Xiqing was excited: "Then let's go learn tomorrow!" ”

"What about your punches?"

"Don't worry, it won't be left behind."

"Alright, it's settled, go to bed."
