Chapter 526: Wandering through the years
In the Hall of Light, Chu Nan was also thinking about the trade between Zhongjiao and Daqin in the future, Liu Yuan took the three sects of Daqin and the King of Qingle, and was in contact with the local merchants of Zhongjiao, as well as the famous families, among them, whether it was the Chen family or the Ma family, the Liu family knew how to handle it in their hearts.
There is no suspense in reaching the intention, but after all, Zhongjiao is in the gap between the three major dynasties, and the geography is extremely bad.
Therefore, there needs to be a reasonable step between the three dynasties. For Chu Nan, this matter is already imminent.
Some things should be done as soon as possible, while everyone is interested, and implement some things quickly, so that the spirit can be raised.
Therefore, sooner or later, the monarchs of the three major dynasties had to come into direct contact. However, this time the ceremony of opening the sect only invited the people of Dayuan Academy, and did not invite the three monarchs, they were all neighbors, and it was a little unreasonable for Chu Nan to act like this.
However, the three great monarchs are in the same breath as Dayuan Academy, and in general, Chu Nan is not ugly.
Chu Nan also wanted to have a head-on contact with the three monarchs, but in the territory of the three major dynasties, people left their hometowns one after another and came to the territory of Zhongjiao, which naturally made many officials in the three dynasties unable to hang their faces.
A reasonable step aside, how to make decent contact with those three is a rather tricky thing now.
While thinking about it, Wang Zhao came.
"Your Highness, in the Heart Cultivation Palace, the National Teacher is talking with your guests, and there is a woman who has come to meet Your Highness." Wang Zhao said with both hands.
Chu Nan was a little in a trance, the national teacher in Wang Zhao's mouth was naturally Lao Chen, Lao Chen was very repulsed by this title in his heart, but he couldn't refuse it on the scene.
Who made him the master of the King of Chu in Xizhou, and his virtue is worthy of a national teacher.
"Let her come." Chu Nan frowned slightly. Wang Zhao bowed slightly and retreated to speak, and after a long time, a beautiful woman in a plain and elegant dress came to the Hall of Light under Wang Zhao's careful leadership.
"Why is the King of Chu bothered?" Xiong Xiaomeng said with a light smile. Seeing that it was Xiong Xiaomeng coming, Chu Nan suddenly chuckled in his heart, and Wang Zhao on the side saw Chu Nan's face change slightly, knowing that it was best not to hear the next conversation, so he hurriedly left the venue.
Chu Nan's body trembled for a moment, and he walked slowly towards Xiong Xiaomeng, and asked in disbelief: "So, Lao Chen is talking to Uncle Xiong Yunxian?" Between the words, Chu Nan's face was slightly red.
Seeing this, Xiong Xiaomeng suddenly laughed and said, "What, so they can't talk together, are you afraid that they will sit together and chat, and they will say something unfavorable to you?" ”
"But in fact, they're just communicating normally."
"It's not what you think it is." Chu Nan's mind was quick, and he didn't have enough confidence to respond: "Actually, I didn't think much about it, I just felt that it was too sudden, you came from afar, I should have gone out of the city to greet you in person." ”
"Right now, you have come to the Chu Palace, without my knowledge, I am a little caught off guard, and I feel that I am not considerate and decent." Xiong Xiaomeng smiled softly and said: "Where is it, if we come to your Chinese education, it is equivalent to you going to Wanshou Mountain, don't care about these red tape, I know that you want to perform well in front of my father and mother, and the two of them don't care about these superficial articles. ”
"I'm very satisfied with your many initiatives, as well as the inscriptions on those stone tablets."
"They appreciate you deep down." Chu Nan touched his forehead and said with a light smile: "So they are still communicating, and you think that the conversation between adults is a bit long, so you came to me first." Xiong Xiaomeng's face was calm and responded: "This is also one reason, but there is another reason." Seeing Xiong Xiaomeng's calm face, Chu Nan suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The entire Hall of Light fell silent inexplicably. In an instant, Xiong Xiaomeng's toes touched the ground, turned into an emerald green shadow, and attacked Chu Nan with one palm.
This is a murderous palm, not a temptation. In a duel with someone like Chu Nan, the temptation was meaningless, so he started to do the trick.
Chu Nan reacted quickly, gathered Yuan Qi in his palm, and subconsciously hedged with a palm, but he kept his hand, if he accidentally injured the girl in front of him, he would become a sinner, after all, his father and mother were in the palace of King Chu.
Boom! Hedged with both palms, Chu Nan suddenly felt that a huge force broke through Yuan Qi and surged towards his body, and Xiong Xiaomeng's palm was full of stamina, like a torrent that was about to burst the embankment.
This was beyond Chu Nan's imagination, and he suddenly felt doubts in his heart. Hurriedly mobilized Yuan Qi, protected his heart, and forcibly dissolved the stamina of Xiong Xiaomeng's palm, although the stamina was dissolved, Chu Nan was also keenly aware that part of Yuan Qi in his body was also dissolved by Xiong Xiaomeng.
The magic of the palm technique is beyond Chu Nan's imagination. Realizing that something was wrong, Chu Nan retreated instantly, looked at Xiong Xiaomeng in disbelief, and said, "Nanzhou, you have made such rapid progress." Xiong Xiaomeng didn't respond to Chu Nan, and continued to shoot, and in an instant, dozens of phantoms were split, filling the entire Hall of Light, Rao is Chu Nan opened the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye, and for a while he couldn't tell which one was the real body, it seemed that all of them were phantoms, all of them were bodies, which was dazzling.
All the phantoms, from all angles, offered a thunderous offensive to Chu Nan. In a hurry, Chu Nan clasped his hands together and held up a protective body barrier.
Thundered...... Xiong Xiaomeng's offensive was like a tide, and I saw a large number of ripples on Chu Nan's body protection enchantment, and the distance was broken, but it was only a line away, Chu Nan was completely confused, how could it be so weird?
Whoosh ...... The phantom like an arrow broke the wind, quickly fused into one, Xiong Xiaomeng pointed at the sword, and with a simple forward stab, it broke Chu Nan's body protection barrier with a bang.
The movement in the Hall of Light quickly attracted Wang Zhao and the Four Heavenly Kings to come over. The barrier was broken, Chu Nan was caught off guard, and when he saw the Four Heavenly Kings coming, he hurriedly accentuated his tone and said, "Go out, don't let anyone in." Wang Zhao saw a slight anger on Chu Nan's face, and hurriedly retreated with the Four Heavenly Kings.
At the same time, in the Heart Cultivation Palace, Shen You also took out an ancient bronze mirror, and the bronze mirror reflected everything that was happening in the Hall of Light at a glance.
The fluctuations of Yuan Qi revealed in the Hall of Light also shocked these elders for the first time. Lao Chen, Xiong Yunxian, and Li Qingge watched intently at this pair of young people.
Lao Chen sighed slightly: "Xiao Meng is really a genius, I have only taught the "Sacred Heart Formula" for less than an hour, and she actually comprehended the essence and fought directly against Chu Nan. Looking at the scene reflected in the bronze mirror, Xiong Yunxian's awe of Lao Chen spontaneously emerged, although Lao Chen said that his combat power was low, but the way he mastered was really broad and profound.
Xiong Yunxian responded: "My daughter, cultivating a technique is indeed a rapid progress, just a glance, you can adopt its main purpose, but it can be used in actual combat so quickly, it is also beyond my expectations, I think it is also inseparable from devouring the innate origin pill, if it were not for Chu Nan, Xiao Meng would probably not be able to obtain the innate origin pill and the innate qi." In and out of the words, he not only looked at Chu Nan, but also praised his daughter, Lao Chen was not confused, he was proud in his heart, the little cub he cultivated was really good at finding a daughter-in-law.
Inside the Temple of Light. Chu Nan was on the safe side, and subconsciously kept a distance from Xiong Xiaomeng, both of them had a tacit understanding, Chu Nan never took out his imperial blade, and Xiong Xiaomeng did not sacrifice his longevity.
The body protection barrier was broken, which was not a trivial matter for Chu Nan. Suddenly, Xiong Xiaomeng teleported to Chu Nan in one step, and slashed at Chu Nan's neck with a light hand knife, Chu Nan raised his right elbow and swung away Xiong Xiaomeng's attack.
Competing for the strength of the body, Xiong Xiaomeng is far from being Chu Nan's opponent. Under the head-to-head fight, Xiong Xiaomeng suddenly felt a shock pain in her slender jade arm, but the girl's family did not retreat, she ran a wonderful body technique, close to the middle of Chu Nan, and sacrificed three palms one after another, the true yuan in the palm was boiling, the palm technique was secret and ingenious, seemingly light, and the power of the earth was hidden.
Chu Nan didn't dare to be careless at all, evaded again and again, and waited for an opportunity to move. Xiong Xiaomeng was a little anxious in his heart, this set of palms, only thirty-six palms, after the thirty-six palms are over, Xiong Xiaomeng has to ventilate, and at the moment of ventilation, it is difficult for him to mobilize the true yuan, which will become a huge flaw.
Therefore, Xiong Xiaomeng can only either win or completely gain the upper hand within thirty-six palms. However, within Chu Nan's Martial Dao Heavenly Eye, Yuan Qi was surging, and between evasions, he also grasped some laws.
Between the left and right, Xiong Xiaomeng's every palm was muddy and disappeared into the sea. Xiong Xiaomeng realized that something was wrong, the golden light in his eyes shone brightly, and two green pine sword qi burst out, Chu Nan had already taken precautions against this, and two surging sword intent also shot out of his eyes.
Thundered...... In the Hall of Light, a large area of fiery runes burned. Under such a head-on hedge, Xiong Xiaomeng fell behind unexpectedly, but Xiong Xiaomeng suddenly raised his right hand, and the true yuan in his body suddenly became silent, Chu Nan saw this, and subconsciously noticed that something was wrong, and took the initiative to retreat.
Seeing this, Xiong Xiaomeng smiled proudly: "Actually, I lied to you, I was just trying to get time to ventilate, you are too worried about yourself." When Chu Nan heard this, he just smiled faintly and said, "It's better to be cautious, you gave me too many surprises today." Between the words, Xiong Xiaomeng successfully ventilated and attacked Chunan again.
However, so far, Chu Nan has also seen through the strangeness of Xiong Xiaomeng's true yuan, Yuan Qi is restrained, and he pushes out with a straight palm, and the palm roars and presses horizontally.
As long as she doesn't make physical contact with Xiong Xiaomeng, it will be difficult for her to dissolve her Yuan Qi. Sure enough, under the power of this palm, Xiong Xiaomeng retreated.
Chu Nan saw that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly withdrew his palm, and at this point, the victory and defeat had been divided.
"What's going on?" Chu Nan said curiously. Xiong Xiaomeng said: "It was Lao Chen who taught me the "Sacred Heart Formula" that can restrain Yuan Qi, it seems that it really has a miraculous effect, but it is limited to close combat, once the distance is pulled, you will be able to separate the victory and defeat with me in a very short time." Chu Nanhu said suspiciously: "When was it taught to you, the old man didn't tell me about it." Xiong Xiaomeng said: "It was probably taught to me before a stick of incense." Chu Nan: "......"
"You're really talented."
"I didn't expect Lao Chen to sell me so quickly." Xiong Xiaomeng said calmly: "So, you don't want me to defeat you?" Chu Nan hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I just feel very sudden." Xiong Xiaomeng said: "But today, I am also open and honest, and I will fight with you in your Hall of Light, and I will not give you a cold arrow, I heard that men are always cautious in some things." Chu Nan was speechless for a while, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, and secretly said: "We need to refrain from speaking, I think what is happening here is clearly seen by the elders in the Heart Cultivation Palace." Then Chu Nan deliberately said: "It's not careful, it's just an accident, you're too worried." Xiong Xiaomeng said with a subtle face: "That's fine." Chu Nan glanced at Xiaomeng and said, "There is only clear tea and black tea here, no flower tea, I didn't have time to prepare, are you?" Xiong Xiaomeng said: "Black tea." Chu Nan hurriedly poured tea and water, and in the Heart Nourishing Palace, after several elders saw the end of this battle, their expressions were subtle, and Xiong Yunxian said: "So you still can't restrain Yuan Qi from the root?" After asking this sentence, Xiong Yunxian regretted it, if there was really a way to restrain Yuan Qi from the root, then what was the point of Yuan Qi that had been cultivated with great difficulty.
However, Lao Chen said: "Naturally, it can't restrain Yuan Qi from the root, but it also helps Xiao Meng to understand Yuan Qi. Xiong Yunxian's heart twitched, the "Sacred Heart Formula" turned out to be so magical, but he looked at Lao Chen with a suspicious expression and asked: "Why didn't Mr. cultivate Yuan Qi, it stands to reason that Mr.'s understanding of Yuan Qi should be far above us." Li Qingge suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched Xiong Yunxian's thigh, and Xiong Yunxian, who was in pain, also realized that his question was very impolite, so he could only pretend to be calm and wait for Lao Chen's answer.
Lao Chen didn't think too much about it, and said truthfully: "My understanding of Yuan Qi can only be said to be slight, but it's a pity that my own talent is limited, and I can't even understand the cultivation of martial arts. ”
"But Chu Nan has cultivated Yuan Qi, so he has an object to refer to, and the living Yuan Qi will inspire Xiao Meng even more." In terms of the world, Lao Chen is not a strong man, and Lao Chen also has too many secrets in his heart.
Xiong Yunxian suddenly brightened up and said, "I see. Seeing Xiaomeng's hope of cultivating Yuan Qi, the old father was still very happy in his heart.
In the Hall of Light, after Chu Nan and Xiaomeng took a sip of tea, they hurriedly left the Chu Palace, everything was under the noses of the elders, it was really a very restrained thing.
Outside the palace of the King of Chu, Chu Nan drove the golden beast to carry Xiong Xiaomeng to the distant mountains.
"Although the mountains and rivers here are not famous mountains and rivers, they will become famous mountains and rivers in many years, in fact, the scenery here is very beautiful." Chu Nan said proudly.
After all, it is the mountains and rivers that are built by burning the fire of luck, and the mountains and rivers of Zhongjiao are like Chu Nan's biological children.
Xiong Xiaomeng pouted slightly: "So you plan to let me accompany you to live in Zhongjiao for the rest of your life and live a life without quarrel with the world?" Be a pair of fairy companions that the world envies? When Chu Nan heard this, he was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to answer.
Young people's hearts are always restless, some places are beautiful, but they are not worth staying somewhere forever, the world is big, everywhere wants to see, to experience, to feel.
The scenery is also people, and many people are so unconsciously missed, until one day many years later, I remembered that what I missed at the beginning was the best.
"So do you want to or don't you want to?" Xiong Xiaomeng continued to ask. Chu Nan pursed his lips and smiled, and said softly: "I must think so in my heart, but we will definitely go and experience many beautiful scenery together." Xiong Xiaomeng deliberately sighed and said: "It's a pity that in the future, the world will become a battlefield of beacon fire and wolf smoke." ”
"It's definitely not going to be too beautiful." Chu Nan said proudly: "Then let's ignite the fire of peace in the world together." Xiong Xiaomeng smiled knowingly and said: "Okay, but before that, we have to go to the West Sea, I calculated the days, there is still a period of time before your ceremony, this period is our freest day, after the ceremony begins, you will have to be busy with the rest of the things, and I may also return to Wuji City." ”
"Impromptu travel is the most enjoyable." Chu Nan patted the head of the golden beast and said, "Geng Meng, Xihai." The next moment, the heavens and the earth turned upside down, and the two came to the endless sea, the sea was blue, and a lonely island with birds and flowers came into Chu Nan's eyes.
After entering the island, Chu Nan and Xiaomeng walked all the way, while enjoying this strange and beautiful scenery, while looking for a flat place.
"None of us have been to Xihai, but it feels good to be here together today." Xiong Xiaomeng said shyly.
Walking and walking, Chu Nan found a flat place, opened the space utensils, and took out the Linglong House, which expanded rapidly, a temporary and exquisite foothold, and the beautiful scenery of the West Sea reflected each other.
Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng sat under the eaves, their hearts were fine, like a calm sea. There is nothing better in life than getting along quietly with the person you like.
"But we can't stay here for too long, because after a long time, the elders in the family will inevitably be worried and will come out to look for us." Xiong Xiaomeng said.
Chu Nan thought about it too, and said: "We have to go back before dark, but I heard that the sunset and dusk in the West Sea are very beautiful, so we will leave after reading it." Xiong Xiaomeng snorted, his eyes were as tender as water, he looked at Chu Nan and said, "Listen to your arrangement." Chu Nan smiled and said: "I went to Nanzhou, went to Beizhou, in fact, I encountered many good scenery on the way, and I was thinking at that time, it would be nice if you were by my side." ”
"At this moment, I have been the happiest in so many years, even happier than the moment when I cultivated Yuan Qi." When Xiong Xiaomeng heard this, her heart was warm, and she smiled knowingly: "I know your intentions, I have always remembered you, for fear that you will not follow your Spring and Autumn righteousness well, and fall in love with the rest of the girls on the way." ”
"Fortunately, you have always been true to your heart." The breeze was not dry, the sunlight was mild, Chu Nan blurted out: "I only have you in my eyes." When Xiong Xiaomeng heard this, she immediately said with an arrogant face: "But ah, a manly man, you can't put your mind too much on the relationship between men and women, that will wear down a person's fighting spirit, and gradually lose his edge." ”
"Between you and me, when we work together to move forward, one day, we will stand side by side, standing at the highest place and gazing at everything."
"We can be a fairy couple in our hearts, but in fact, we had better become a pair of unparalleled couples." Listening to the girl next to him talking about this seriously, Chu Nan also listened seriously, he had never thought about such a long-term thing, he just wanted to achieve a positive result with Xiaomeng, it seems that women are really more mature than men in terms of feelings, Chu Nan has also been taught a lot, and his vision has broadened a lot invisibly.
"It's up to you." Chu Nan smiled. Xiong Xiaomeng glanced at Chu Nan, and naturally snuggled into Chu Nan's arms.
On the edge of the isolated island, Geng Meng patrolled and observed the surrounding situation, this place is very close to Dayuan Academy, although Dayuan Academy will not directly send people to make it difficult for Chu Nan, but it does not rule out such a possibility, it is better to be cautious.
Moreover, the eldest brother and Sister Meng are studying some esoteric life philosophies, and Geng Meng also feels that she is a little redundant by the side of the eldest brother...... Silent guardianship is the greatest nobility in the world.
Before you know it, the sun is gradually sinking to the sea level, and the sunset is beautiful, and the whole sea is plated with a pale red halo.
Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng also walked out of the Linglong House, came to the edge of the island, and began to collect dead branches, and the bonfire on the isolated island overlapped with the dusk scene, which was also a pleasure.
Soon, Geng Meng took a dead branch in his mouth, spewed out a faint flame, and lit the bonfire.
Chu Nan jumped into the water directly with a thud, caught a few big fish, and the secret sauce was there, although there was a banquet in the palace of the king of Chu tonight, Chu Nan and Xiaomeng wanted to eat a grilled fish more, only when they ate grilled fish, was the time not to be disturbed.
Night is gradually coming in from all directions. After Chu Nan went ashore, he began to grill the fish with his hands and feet, and suddenly, Geng Meng pricked up his ears, and Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng also looked at Geng Meng's eyes.
At the end of the field of vision, a lonely boat walked slowly. A handsome middle-aged man stood on the bow of the boat, his long hair fluttering, standing with his hands in his hands, he was dressed in an ink-colored robe, his face was full of energy, and he greeted Chu Nan on the shore: "Suddenly I smelled the smell of grilled fish, so I came on a whim, but I didn't expect it to be you." Mr. Lu Li's face gradually became clear in the eyes of Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng.
The two glanced at each other, and Chu Nan hurriedly greeted warmly: "Sir, please take a seat." Xiong Xiaomeng also hurriedly opened the space utensils and took out a wood-colored dark and delicate seat.
Lu Li jumped lightly and went ashore. Xiong Xiaomeng stepped forward and bowed slightly with both hands: "Xiaomeng has seen Mr., I remember that the last time I met Mr. was eight years ago, when I was still young. Lu Li looked at Chu Nan with a soft face, then at Xiong Xiaomeng, and said with a gentle smile: "Yes, now he is slim, and there is a handsome young man by his side." ”
"Sometimes life is beautiful and worth savoring." After taking his seat, Chu Nan hurriedly returned to Linglong House, brought a teapot and tea set, and served tea to Mr. Lu Li.
"How did the gentleman show up in the West Sea?" Xiong Xiaomeng asked curiously. Lu Li glanced at the grilled fish on the barbecue grill, not to mention anything else, Chu Nan's kung fu of grilling fish is still in place.
"I heard that Chu Nan has established a Chinese education, although I don't have an invitation, I still plan to come uninvited." Lu Li smiled kindly.
Chu Nan on the side was very moved when he heard this, and said: "I want to send an invitation to Mr., but Mr. is erratic, and I really don't know where to look for Mr." ”
"I have a very close relationship with Mr. and the water, the first time I met Mr. I was alone in the big river, and this time I met Mr. in the West Sea." Lu Li laughed and said: "It seems to be the case, I came to Xihai when I was young, and this time I came to Xihai just to wander around on a whim, I planned to find a random place to settle down tonight, and early tomorrow morning, I will set off for the middle school where you are." ”
"As a result, I met you halfway, or the two of you, and Xiaomeng's parents who wanted to come also came?" Xiong Xiaomeng said: "Yes, my father and aunt will definitely be very happy when they see Mr." "Lu Li, one of the strongest people in the world, the boss of the Flying Immortal Realm.
Not to mention Xiong Yunxian's generation, even Xiong Zhengchao and Ji Shengxiao, the two old men, will be very happy to see Mr. Lu Li.
When the grilled fish was ready, Chu Nan handed the first grilled fish to Lu Li.
"I shouldn't have bothered your Yaxing, did I?" Lu Li suddenly asked. Of course, Lu Li knew that Chu Nan had cultivated Yuan Qi, but he didn't care about it, and he wasn't surprised that Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng walked together so quickly, after cultivating Yuan Qi, no matter how high the shelf of Song Sect was, he would put down his posture and admit Chu Nan's existence.
But seeing that the two were in love, Lu Li felt very good. Chu Nan hurriedly responded: "No, after eating the grilled fish, we plan to return to the middle school, and there will be a banquet in the evening, Mr. will go with us, and we will definitely be able to surprise the elders at that time." ”
"Everything happened just right." Lu Li said: "So you have a good thing to do today." Chu Nan smiled implicitly: "Sort of." ”
