Li Chouxin walked slowly all the way, carefully studying the wooden sword in his hand all the way.

When I came to the east of the city, there was a dilapidated image here, and among the weeds, some broken walls and ruins were faintly exposed, which should be the broken temple that the beggar said.

Li Chouxin used a wooden sword to block the weeds and walked inside.

At this moment, a thin little beggar-looking child, about thirteen or fourteen years old, suddenly flew out of the grass on the side.

Before Li Chouxin had time to take a closer look, the little beggar jumped up towards Li Chouxin and came towards Li Chouxin.

I saw that where the little beggar jumped up, a pit was stepped on in an instant, and a domineering momentum came into the air, followed by the little beggar's fist, which was so thin that only bones remained.

Li Chou hurriedly avoided it, but the little beggar still refused to give up.

Li Chouxin observed the little beggar while dealing with the little beggar's fist.

This kid is not very old, he is quite tall, but he is too thin, but he has a domineering true qi, but he is not very good at using it, and even the offensive moves are rough, and no one should have given him good guidance.

Dressed in a red cotton rag, with a bun on his head, but still a little scattered, a lot of messy hair swaying back and forth in front of his face, his eyebrows are full of heroism, and his childish face is still some mud, but the whole person does not look as simple as a beggar.

Li Chou didn't make any effort, and played with the little beggar in front of him, only to feel that every time the little beggar attacked, it seemed like he was running towards a wooden sword. Li Chouxin held the wooden sword in his hand, put it behind his back, and used only one hand to fight the little beggar.

The little beggar saw that he couldn't get a bargain, and after accumulating his strength, he punched Li Chouxin fiercely, Li Chouxin reached out to pick it up, but he didn't expect this punch to be strong, and when he received the punch, the weeds around him bent over like a strong wind.

Li Chouxin almost didn't notice the loss, but he still stood firmly, while the little beggar took a few steps back.

The little beggar was about to step forward, and Li Chouxin made a pause gesture.

"You're crazy, aren't you? I'm not welcome to do it again. Li Chou said to the little beggar.

The little beggar replied, "It's just to do it to you, who let you take the wooden sword." ”

After that, the little beggar hit again reluctantly, Li Chouxin was not used to him this time, he subdued the little beggar and held him in front of him, and asked the little beggar while walking towards the broken temple.

"Stinky boy, who the hell are you? What does this wooden sword have to do with you? ”

"Zhang Xiaopan!"

The little beggar only said his name, but did not say what was the matter with the sword.

"Don't say yes, do you? Then I'm going to have to work hard! ”

As soon as Li Chou finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice from the broken temple, "Sorrowful son, what to do with children".

When you hear the voice, you know that the person who spoke is the person who exchanged his sword for wine in Fumanlou during the day.

Li Chouxin let go of the little beggar and went into the temple, and since the man spoke up, the little beggar named Zhang Xiaopan didn't do anything again.

Li Chouxin walked into the broken temple, and saw the beggar who was exchanging wine during the day was lying on the altar in front of a broken Buddha statue, holding a wine gourd and drinking wine freely with Erlang's legs crossed.

Seeing this scene, I was indeed a little surprised, after all, no matter how dilapidated this statue is, it is also respected by everyone, but this beggar directly used the offering platform as his bed to rest, and drank wine without scruples, which is really strange.

The man closed his eyes and said, "Since the sorrowful prince is here, I think the trouble of the martial arts family has been solved, right?" ”

"You know I'm coming?"

Li Chou looked at the beggar curiously. And the beggar slowly sat up, and on the altar it was more like a statue of a god.

"Looking at Childe's sword, you know that Childe is a person with profound attainments in swordsmanship, and since he has a wooden sword, Childe will definitely find out."

After listening to the beggar's words, Li Chouxin was indeed the case, but in addition to figuring out the matter of the wooden sword, he also wanted to find out who the beggar was, so he told the beggar what he thought, and the strange little beggar who suddenly appeared suddenly made Li Chouxin interested.

The beggar looked at Li Chou and no longer concealed it, and said, "Since you are here, I will tell you everything." ”

"The wooden sword in the hand of the prince is called Qi Xian, which is made of thousand-year-old dragon wood, the sword body is red, and the blade is indestructible, which is not comparable to the sword of the ordinary world. This sword is owned by Pei Jianyi, the sword saint of Xijing, he is also my master, and then the master passed this sword to me, and I carried this to walk the world, but I never thought that the master family was in trouble later, and I began to break the heart of cultivation, and eventually wandered around. ”

When Li Chouxin heard Pei Jianyi, his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "It turns out that you are Pei Jianyi's descendant." ”

The beggar was also a little surprised: "You actually know the master?" ”

"It's not a secret, in the next is the descendant of Chang Geng Sword Immortal Li Chouxin, when the Sword Immortal and Pei Jiansheng were inseparable in the battle of Jianmen Mountain, and then the master stayed in Jianmen Mountain to painstakingly study and create the strongest sword intent of the three moves, and wanted to compete with Pei Jiansheng again, but in the end he failed to do so, and got the inheritance of the Sword Immortal by chance, and received the wish of the master, if he met the heir of the Sword Saint, he must complete the long-cherished wish for the master to compete."

The beggar listened to Li Chouxin's words, and remembered that his master had talked about this battle, because he did not distinguish between the superior and the inferior at that time, and it has always become a regret in his heart.

Li Chouxin watched the descendant of the dignified Sword Saint fall to this point, and asked, "Dare to ask Brother Taizun's surname?" Why are you willing to fall? ”

The beggar smiled and said: "I was originally picked up by the master from the beggar pile, so I gave the name Pei Chen. ”

It turned out that this beggar was called Pei Chen, Li Chouxin threw the wooden sword in his hand and returned it to Pei Chen, and said: "Brother Pei Chen, the gentleman does not win the love of others, this sword is still kept by himself, if he is interested in the future, he will definitely have a discussion with you." ”

"Even if you are as strong as Shizun, you can't escape the heat and coldness of the world after all, so why care about who is high and who is low, a pot of turbid wine, just get by, learn about it, let's see it in the future." Pei Chen said lightly.

Knowing that Pei Chen's fighting spirit at this time was completely lost, Li Chouxin didn't persuade him more.

And Pei Chen threw the wooden sword fairy back into Li Chouxin's hand again, and said: "This sword is as its name, even the immortals in the world can be killed, the master held this sword to look down on the world, and now it is only like waste wood left in my hands, maybe one day it will be burned by me as firewood, or give it to the sorrowful son, maybe this sword can regain the glory of the past in your hands." ”

Li Chouxin took the wooden sword and swung a sword towards the broken incense burner outside the door, only to see a powerful sword intent fly out, shattering the huge incense burner and filling the sky with dust.

"Good sword, really good sword!" Li Chouxin said, but Li Chouxin would not accept the sword, so he shifted the topic to the child named Zhang Xiaopan on the side.

At this time, Zhang Xiaopan was still immersed in Li Chouxin's aftermath when he had just swung out the sword, and he didn't realize that Li Chouxin had already asked Pei Chen about himself.

"This child is also a hard-working man, his parents died and he lives on the streets, when I saw him being bullied, and saw that his bones were strange, so I took him with me, he had no name, just because I met him in a place called Zhangjiacun, so I took Zhang as my surname and named him Xiaopan. This child has been growing taller for the past two years, but at the age of thirteen or fourteen, he has already climbed straight into adulthood. When Pei Chen talked about this child, he seemed to have changed again, no longer like the sloppy appearance just now.

Li Chouxin looked at Zhang Xiaopan, and then asked Pei Chen, "Then the domineering true qi on his body was also taught by you?" Why don't you teach him some exquisite martial arts? ”

Pei Chen sighed, "Brother Sorrowful misunderstood, this Xiao Pan's true qi was learned by himself." ”

Li Chou was very surprised.

Pei Chen continued: "Xiao Pan's true qi is really "Flying Elephant Jue", it is a practice of qigong method, after practice, every blow is like the power of the flying elephant, extremely fierce, it is indeed passed on by the master, but I have been referring to it for a long time but have not been able to learn the method, so I have been carrying it with me, and then Xiao Pan was bored in this broken temple, shouting every day to learn martial arts, but I never wanted to teach him, just didn't want him to get involved in this complex dispute, so I gave him "Flying Elephant Jue", thinking that I couldn't practice this kid and couldn't practice. In recent days, Xiao Pan has been practicing this exercise every day, and he has really found the method, just fighting with you, presumably the son also felt it, but at this time Xiao Pan is just getting started. ”

"Since everything is providential, why don't you take the opportunity to teach him some sword moves?" Li Chou was really puzzled.

Pei Chen said again: "The sword path I practice is mainly feminine, and this flying elephant trick is mainly fierce, Xiao Pan is still young, I am afraid that he will not be able to master the fire and go crazy, so I am not willing to give him sword moves easily." ”

At this point, Li Chouxin also understood Pei Chen's good intentions, and also understood why Zhang Xiaopan was domineering and sincere, but he couldn't even make a few mature moves.

Li Chouxin looked at Pei Chen again and said, "Brother Pei Chen, are you really willing to spend your days like this with this child all the time?" Aren't you afraid of delaying this child? ”

These words seemed to sting Pei Chen, his face suddenly became heavy, he picked up the wine jug and poured a few sips of wine, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaopan who was standing aside, as if he was thinking about something, but he didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhang Xiaopan saw that Pei Chen was a little hesitant, and stood up and said: "Worried son, don't you have to meddle with Brother Pei Chen's affairs, Xiaopan, I am only willing to follow Brother Pei Chen, no matter what kind of life he wants to live, I only want to follow him." ”

Li Chouxin looked at the stubborn Zhang Xiaopan and said, "Xiaopan, don't you want to see the world outside?" Do you want to bend down and break the temple to be the frog at the bottom of the well? ”

It's good that Li Chouxin didn't say anything, but after saying this, Zhang Xiaopan angrily wanted to drive Li Chouxin out of here, and kept saying: "You don't have to worry about our affairs, the frog at the bottom of the well is the frog at the bottom of the well, don't bother with it, you can leave quickly, don't come to disturb me and Brother Pei again." ”

Looking at Zhang Xiaopan's appearance, Li Chou smiled, and Pei Chen also smiled, but Pei Chen smiled a little bitterly, but he also seemed to have made a decision in his heart, that is, to send Xiaopan away. Just looking at the current Xiao Pan, Pei Chen knew that this was not the time.

Li Chouxin was urged by Zhang Xiaopan to be pushed to the gate of the broken temple.

"Brother Pei Chen, if you figure out that you are willing to use the sword, I will wait for you in Fumanlou, but after three days, I will leave Xunyang, and I ask Brother Pei to think carefully."

After Li Chouxin finished speaking, he was pushed out of the broken temple by Zhang Xiaopan's strong strength.

Seeing that Li Chouxin had already left the broken temple, Zhang Xiaopan turned around and went back to the temple, but was stopped by Li Chouxin.

"Zhang Xiaopan, go on!" After Li Chouxin finished speaking, he threw the wooden sword in his hand at Zhang Xiaopan.

Zhang Xiaopan took the wooden sword, actually smiled at Li Chouxin, and then ran towards Pei Chen with the wooden sword.

Pei Chen took the wooden sword in Zhang Xiaopan's hand and looked at Li Chouxin's departing figure, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Li Chouxin walked on the way back to the restaurant, there was still a trace of joy in his heart, after all, the master said that Pei Jianyi had let himself meet here, it seems that everything is a fixed number in the dark, maybe there will be a contest between the two after all, but the key to all this depends on how Pei Chen chooses.

In the broken temple, Pei Chen looked at Zhang Xiaopan with a somewhat lost look, and he didn't feel good in his heart.

A child of such an age must yearn for the outside world in his heart, he has not even experienced the prosperity and excitement of the world, is he going to waste his life with himself like this? Pei Chen asked his heart, picked up the fairy on the side and stroked it.

The moment when the finger just touched the blade of the sword, it seemed to evoke the days when he walked in the world many years ago, and was happy and happy.

Zhang Xiaopan looked at Pei Chen, who was caught in memory, walked to Pei Chen's side, and said: "Brother Pei, don't think about it anymore, Xiaopan just wants to stay by Brother Pei's side, as long as Brother Pei is here, it will be my prosperity." ”

As soon as Zhang Xiaopan's words came out, Pei Chen became even more uncomfortable.

"Xiao Pan, if there is really that day, you must be obedient, this is by no means your place to live, the vast world is the place you should swim." Pei Chen thought about it as he spoke.

"Brother Pei, don't listen to that sad boy's nonsense and think nonsense, Xiao Pan will not leave you anyway, Xiao Pan will give you a pension."

After Pei Chen heard this, his eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, and then he picked up the wine gourd and took a long sip of wine, stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Xiaopan's head. At this time, Pei Chen knew that Zhang Xiaopan would not agree no matter what he said, so he didn't continue, but said: "Xiaopan, go and practice your flying elephant trick, when you are almost done, Brother Pei will definitely find you a powerful master to learn a good skill." ”

After Zhang Xiaopan listened to Pei Chen's words, he ran out happily.

Li Chouxin also arrived in the city at this time, thinking that he had been out for a long time, Ziwei and the others should be worried, so he quickened his pace and walked towards Fumanlou.

I didn't walk long before I saw a stall selling jewelry on the side of the road and walked up.

The vendor is a young girl, and when she saw Li Chouxin coming, she hurriedly introduced: "Childe really has a vision, my jewelry is the most distinctive in the whole Xunyang, it is all handmade, if you buy it and give it to Mrs. Miss, you will be able to please them, why don't you pick one!" ”

Li Chouxin stepped forward to take a look, and it was indeed quite distinctive, so he began to choose.

After picking for a long time, she didn't pick out a reason, the girl looked at Li Chou and was entangled, and said, "Childe, why don't you choose one for you, you can tell me what kind of girl you want to send." ”

Li Chouxin scratched his head and said, "It's not one, it's six, all of them are girls of about the same age as you." ”

I saw the girl in front of me laughing, and Li Chou was slightly embarrassed.

"Childe is really blessed, the little girl knows, so she picks six for Childe to wrap up." The girl said hurriedly.

After a while, Li Chouxin hurried back to Fumanlou with gifts.

Sure enough, when they saw Li Chouxin coming back, several girls flocked to her, surrounded Li Chouxin and asked questions, and only relieved when they saw that Li Chouxin was fine.

At this time, the sharp-eyed Zhu Wei saw the gift in Li Chouxin's hand and asked, "Brother Chouxin, what are you holding in your hand?" ”

Li Chouxin scratched his head again and said, "I must have worried a few people when I went out for half a day today, so I bought you a gift on the way back." ”

As soon as Li Chou finished speaking, the things in his hand were snatched by Zhu Wei, and when he opened it, he saw that there were six different hairpins.

At this time, Li Chou said: "I don't know what style you like, so you can choose one you like." ”

The six girls happily chose the hairpin as if they had smeared honey in their hearts, and after a while, they each took a hairpin, and the naughty Zhu Wei took the hairpin to Li Chouxin and said, "Brother Sorrowful, since you have bought everything, help Zhu Wei put it on." ”

Li Chouxin took the hairpin and carefully helped Zhu Wei insert it in the bun, and Zhu Wei's face suddenly filled with a sweet smile.

Seeing this, no one on the side took hairpins to surround Li Chouxin again, and shouted in their mouths: "Brother Sorrowful, I want it too!" I want it too! ”

Li Chou was helpless, but he still carefully put the hairpin on the head of every girl.

Looking at a group of smiling girls beside him, Li Chou was also proud.

However, this scene made the other diners in the Fuman Building envious miserably, what kind of family can be accompanied by so many stunning beauties, but they can only envy out of thin air, pick up the cup and swallow the bitter wine.

Li Chouxin sat at the table with the six girls, eating and drinking while telling a few people about his meeting with Pei Chen and Zhang Xiaopan, and several people were also a little surprised, but they still focused most of their attention on Li Chouxin.

Just when a few people were talking and laughing, the bustling street suddenly quieted down, and only a sound of horses' hooves was heard coming towards Fumanlou.

The shopkeeper at the door ran in in a hurry at this time, and shouted loudly: "Oh no, no, that Wu Dashao came to Fumanlou with an iron horse, and also brought Nangong Qing, the first master of Taishou Mansion, this time we are afraid that Fumanlou will suffer." ”

When the diners heard this, they all crawled out of the Fuman Building.

Li Chouxin and a few girls sat at the table drinking unharmed, Li Chouxin knew that it must be that Wu Dabao did not give up and brought someone to seek revenge.

Iron hooves stopped in front of the door, and sure enough, as soon as the hoof stopped, Wu Dabao's voice sounded outside the door.

"The little white face inside, Young Master Ben is back again, don't come out and die soon!"
