Nothing happened overnight.

The next day, the morning breeze blew through last night, and the sun rose in the east, gilding the entire Chiming City with a pale golden halo.

In the inner hall, Chu Nan, Lu Li, Ji Yao, and Bai Changping sat around a table, and on the table was the unique breakfast of Chiming City, which tasted sweet and not greasy.

Ji Yao asked intimately: "Later, we will go directly to the Nanming Jedi, Mr. plans to spend a while with Chu Nan, do you need a chariot?" ”

Lu Li looked at Chu Nan, and Chu Nan responded: "No, let's walk all the way." ”

Ji Yao said: "Also, you are used to walking. ”

"Sir is also accustomed to wandering around."

"Then we will meet again, maybe we will meet in Caifeng Tower."

Chu Nan responded peacefully: "Maybe." ”

……

After the meal, Bai Changping and Ji Yao took the first step, Chu Nan and Lu Li and Yellow Dog Gengmeng crossed the void to the outside of Chiming City, and the long post road led to the distance, I have to say that the sun in Nanzhou seems to be bigger than the sun in Xizhou and Zhongzhou.

The red sun was on the head, and the young man's heart couldn't help but surge with blood.

Chu Nan glanced at the sun high above and couldn't help but smile.

Seeing this, Lu Li asked, "Why are you laughing?" ”

Chu Nan said: "Unconsciously, I have come to the end of my teenage career, and in another year or two, I will become a young man, and I will also reach the age of talking about marriage." ”

I don't know how those bigwigs of Songzong will think of Chu Nan as a martial artist at that time.

Lu Li said: "It turned out that I wanted to be a daughter-in-law, but marriage is a big event, it all depends on luck, sometimes I fall in love with one person, and it is another person who gets married and has children, don't take the love of children too seriously." ”

Chu Nan thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a sad and bumpy love story, everything is normal." ”

Lu Li couldn't help but give Chu Nan a thumbs up and said: "Most of the living beings in the world are just suffering from love, and there are not many people who can taste the sweetness of love, I didn't expect your luck to be so good." ”

"I also hope that you will be smooth in your relationship in the future."

Chu Nan smiled and said, "Inherit the auspicious words of the predecessors." ”

"Let's not go all the way, where do we go first?"

Lu Li said, "You want to read first?" ”

Chu Nan's eyes lit up slightly, and he said: "Do your predecessors have Confucian friends in Nanzhou? ”

Lu Li shook his head with a smile and said, "That's not true, but I know that in a village, there are many stone tablets, and on the stone tablets, there are some poems and songs." ”

"Actually, there is quite a bit of content, you can go and see it."

Chu Nan said: "What kind of village is that? ”

Lu Li said: "There are not many people in that village anymore, it is a village deep in the mountains, there may be some lonely old people left, but those stone tablets are still there." ”

Chu Nan said: "How far is it?" ”

Lu Li said: "If we walk like this, it will be about three days later. ”

Chu Nan said: "Then walk, everything in Nanzhou is new to me, and it is really a bit sloppy to reach that village directly, and people occasionally need a pilgrimage road." ”

Lu Li smiled and said nothing, the little guy's mood was really stable.

……

Xizhou, Longchang Town.

Lao Chen was at home alone, except for settling down the meal of the Four Heavenly Kings, he was sitting and drinking with Lao Lu.

Regarding his neighbor Gong Xue, Lao Chen also asked someone to send some braised meat and sauerkraut, although Gong Xue did not respond positively, but she did not dislike it, and the matter was over.

Early in the morning, the Four Heavenly Kings had just finished eating and left, Lao Chen was sitting alone under the eaves drinking tea, and suddenly, an old friend came.

The white hair is pale, the face is withered, but the brilliance in the eyes is very condensed, and the appearance in this simple courtyard in a dark black coat looks a little abrupt.

"You're quite casual and elegant, and you've confirmed your status as a janitor." The nameless old man said.

Seeing the nameless old man coming, Lao Chen smiled and said, "Long time no see." ”

Then he served tea and poured water to the nameless old man unhurriedly, the two have known each other for many years, and the old man is also Chu Nan's uncle.

After sitting down, the nameless old man said: "That kid has entered the Great Sun Realm, Gang Qi has blossomed and borne fruit, and his attainments are great, in the territory of Yan Kingdom, I have seen him make a move, Jin Dan is strong, not his enemy with one move." ”

"Now, we have reached the middle of the Great Sun Realm, and the progress is gratifying."

Lao Chen didn't know what Chu Nan's situation was recently, and when he heard the old guy say this, Lao Chen smiled with relief: "He has a high level of understanding, and it is not uncommon for him to make such progress." ”

The nameless old man said: "But the little guy's luck is too good, he actually met Lu Li, and he and Lu Li became a New Year's friend, Lu Li has already taken the little guy to Nanzhou, probably planning to refine the Innate Origin Pill, counting, Lu Li will become half of the little guy's master, aren't you in a hurry?" ”

Lu Li, who is an idle cloud and wild crane, is also one of the contemporary saints, and his qualifications are not weaker than those old guys in the Songbai Second Sect.

Knowing that Chu Nan had such an opportunity, Lao Chen also chuckled in his heart.

"Really?" Old Chen Hu asked.

The nameless old man picked up the teacup and said: "Right now, it's a good fate, thanks to Chu Nan being a martial artist, if it's a monk, maybe Lu Li will forcibly accept Chu Nan as a closed disciple." ”

"But once Chu Nan really refines the Innate Origin Pill, Lu Li may be impressed by Chu Nan, maybe he will discover some ancient secrets, with Lu Li's acumen, this is very likely."

"I came to you this time to discuss this matter, do I need to take action to cut off this good relationship between the little guy and Lu Li in advance? It's too late to start. ”

"But Chu Nan is the one you taught, the one who makes the decision, or you."

Lao Chen fell into deep thought, but soon Lao Chen came to his senses and said, "You care so much about Xiao Chunan, you have even seen him make a move." ”

The nameless old man said: "I happened to be passing by, his aura has gradually had a trace of entering the room, and after refining the Innate Origin Pill, he will go to the next level." ”

"Within the Five Realms, he is already invincible in the world, according to the current progress of the little guy, it is estimated that in a year or two at most, the little guy will touch the threshold of the Six Realms."

"If Lu Li is still by Chu Nan's side at that time, it will be a big trouble."

"You make a decision as soon as possible."

Lao Chen looked at the sky, the sky was clear, and there was nothing great happening in Longchang Town.

"Follow fate, this is Chu Nan's own chance creation, if we get involved in it, we will also be contaminated with some cause and effect, and wherever he goes, it will be a step." Lao Chen said.

The nameless old man's eyes widened, and he laughed angrily: "It's not like you to be the shopkeeper, he is your apprentice after all." ”

Lao Chen smiled indifferently and said, "But I'm also his gatekeeper." ”

The nameless old man was speechless for a while, and said in a deep voice: "He is still so young, you already treat him as an adult?" ”

Lao Chen's face condensed slightly, and he said calmly: "People don't grow up slowly, people grow up suddenly." ”

The nameless old man smiled with relief, he didn't even care about the person who was the master, how could he, the person who was the master's uncle, care.

"The real dispute will not appear in the past two years, but in three or five years, I hope that by that time, your little Chu Nan has become an adult who is in charge of his own affairs." The nameless old man said.

Lao Chen snorted, feeling a little apprehensive, but Xiao Chunan also had his own ideas in his heart, when he took Xiao Chunan out to be a knife catcher for the first time, and saw Xiao Chunan's conduct in the world, as well as his attitude in the face of interests, and several things that happened later, Chu Nan exuded a pure calmness, and Lao Chen was completely relieved of Xiao Chunan.

Otherwise, if he goes out to travel alone at a young age, even if there is a golden beast by his side, Lao Chen is extremely uneasy.

"Let's see, we're not in a hurry, since we're here, let's stay and eat a bowl of sauerkraut noodles that I made myself." Lao Chen said lightly with a calm face.

The nameless old man's mood fluctuated, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lao Chen's gourd.

"It's okay, it's been a long time since I've eaten the sauerkraut noodles you made." The nameless old man responded weakly.

……

Nanzhou.

The two of them were a dog, and they went all the way, and it was quite smooth, and they did not encounter bandits and robberies on the road, and the common people left their hometowns to sell their children and daughters.

For three days, Chu Nan followed Lu Li and finally came to the village deep in the mountains.

Surrounded by mountains, the air in the mountains is moist, the streams are murmuring, and most of the houses are mud houses, but there are a few wooden houses, but they have all decayed and collapsed.

As Lu Li said, in this village, there are only a few lonely old people, and there are no young and strong children.

These old people are roughly divided into two kinds, either they have no children and no daughters, or they are abandoned by their children, in short, they have nothing to rely on, but these old people do not have much sadness on their faces, and some of the old people often go from house to house and join in the fun.

After Chu Nan and Lu Li, two strangers, came to this village, the old people on the street did not come up to inquire when they saw this, because every year at this season, people from outside the mountain would always come to the depths of this mountain to search for medicinal herbs, or to find some kind of wild fruits to taste.

"As you can see, this village is miserable and miserable, but it is also peaceful and peaceful." Lu Lidao.

Chu Nan frowned slightly, he was old and had nowhere to go, no matter how he looked at it, it was a miserable situation.

"Where's the stele?" Chu Nan asked.

Lu Li said: "You have to go forward." ”

The two of them and a dog went all the way forward, and not long after, they came to the foot of the back mountain, in a wasteland, there were about fifty-six large and small stone tablets, but each stone tablet had been covered with wild grass, vines entangled, and even desolate as far as the eye could reach.

Chu Nan gathered his qi into a blade, and swung out with a slight knife, and the fine and soft knife intent turned into an autumn wind that covered this wasteland in an instant, cleaning up the weeds and vines on the stone tablet.

The stele reveals its original face, the texture is rough, the color is dull, many steles have cracked out of the cracks, and the text on the stele is slightly blurred, under a closer look, its handwriting is also slightly messy, but the pen power is still acceptable, the person who carved the stele should be very attentive in the carving, but he has no calligraphy attainments at all.

"A lonely boat on the sea, mist and stars."

"There is a sad wind in autumn, and the day and night are boundless."

"The bright moon in the south shines on the sea of dust."

"Soft water and clear waves, empty mountains and quiet words."

“……”

Chu Nan casually looked at the words on a stone tablet, the literature and science did not make sense, but he could savor it carefully, and there was still a bit of charm, that person's state of mind was very pure, and it was inclusive of everything in a trance.

Lu Li said: "Actually, I came here by accident back then, and when I saw the words on these stone tablets, I thought it was very rough at first, but it was just a poor scholar chatting with emotion, but when I savored it, it was quite worth scrutinizing." ”

"I guess it's not a poor scholar, at most they know a few words, and they know a little bit of knowledge."

"And these steles are very inferior, but the man is willing to write on the steles, and the steles are so neatly placed in his own field, I think it is quite ingenious."

"Unfortunately, sometimes it's not good to be too pure."

There is a group of people who may be quite talented in certain things, so they will not do anything else, but this kind of people are unlucky, they have no talent, but they have no chance, no one cultivates, and even more tragically, they do not even have enlightenment.

But he knew that he was talented in this matter, and he didn't know if he had an obsession, or if he really wouldn't do the rest, so unconsciously, his life was dangling.

Chu Nan said: "At least this person's talent is respectable, and his heart is also worthy of awe." ”

"Power, fame and fortune, life encounters, complacent, glorious lintel, most aspiring people work hard for all this, no matter the cost."

"But in the end, it's hard to grasp the ultimate wisdom."

"In my opinion, this person has touched the threshold of ultimate wisdom to some extent, but from a secular point of view, he is indeed a speck of dust in the vast world, insignificant."

Lu Li suddenly asked very seriously, "So, what is the ultimate wisdom?" ”

Chu Nan took a deep breath and replied seriously: "I don't know either." ”

Lu Li: "......"

"Okay."

"In fact, there are many people in the world who don't know what their talent is, and they are confused from the beginning, waiting for the arrangement of fate, some people have waited, and some people have not."

"Taste it carefully, it's a little sour, which further confirms the saying that the Great Dao is ruthless."

Chu Nan said: "This person should be a person from this village, the handwriting on this has faint signs of weathering, thinking that person should be no longer alive." ”

Lu Li pouted and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I came here by accident sixty years ago, these stone tablets are here, for a mortal, he is long gone." ”

Chu Nan was ashamed and said: "It's me who is superficial, but these stone tablets he left behind do have great value for me personally." ”

Lu Li was curious if Chu Nan would have an epiphany here.

"Then you read it here first, I'll wait for you in the distance." Lu Lidao.

Chu Nan snorted, some of the handwriting on the stone tablet was very blurry, and it was only possible to figure it out if Chu Nan opened the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye.

The words on these steles are from an unknown person who has no merit.

But that nameless man still left some of his occasional aura on these stone tablets, when he was alive, maybe many people looked down on him, but after he died, he was discovered by a big man like Lu Li.

If that person could be so appreciated by Lu Li when he was alive, maybe his life would be different, maybe at this moment, he would have become a big man on the famous side.

It's a pity that many people and many things in the world are missing a good one.

Chu Nan gradually calmed down and carefully looked at the words on the stone tablet.

Although the text is sparse, it is very deep, and if you are not careful, you will miss some essence.

Chu Nan felt a little ashamed, he shouldn't have cleaned up the vines and weeds here with a knife, he should have taken a sickle in his hand and cleaned up this place.

What he saw was the work of a person's life.

It's a peerless flower that blooms in the wilderness.

He also felt fortunate that with Lu Li's predecessor leading the way, he came here and appreciated everything in front of him.

In my heart, I am more and more happy.

Some people died, but not completely......
