Xihe Sword Sect Night Rain Sword Immortal Li Twelve, after looking at the green-shirted Confucian and apologizing, suddenly sneered but did not speak, planning to leave directly with the unhappy little girl Li Yuyao beside him.

Su Sanzai, a young man in black who had been hiding behind Mr. Cui just now, suddenly showed a head from behind the Confucian scholar, rubbing his chin and staring at the little girl, his eyes turned around, like a profiteer who didn't want to pay for business.

The girl Li Yuyao frowned, her originally unhappy expression instantly turned cold, and one hand pressed on the handle of the knife on her waist again.

Confucian Cui Jue had a little headache, and looked back at the sneaky Su Sanzai, but the young man in black smiled and winked at Confucius.

Cui Jue was stunned, then frowned, and then blinked.

Li Twelve, the stunning woman standing at the door, looked at the two men standing in the courtyard, and inexplicably felt that they were uneasy and kind, so she moved slightly sideways without a trace to block the little girl behind her.

Su Sanzai smiled when he saw this, moved two steps from behind the Confucian scholar to show his figure, arched his hand towards the two women who were standing at the door of the school, one big and one small, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, just now it was just because it was rare to meet a good seedling with outstanding talent, so I couldn't hold back the itching for a while, but you should all have seen it, I didn't actually do it ruthlessly, if the two of you are not satisfied with this, I can apologize personally!" Of course, if you want compensation, you can also do it, and the conditions are casually mentioned by this little girl! ”

Li Twelve, a stunning woman who blocked the little girl behind her, stared at Su Sanzai, and said in an indifferent tone: "Mr. Su, right?" Although you and I have never met, I have heard of Your Excellency's reputation somewhat, and I think Mr. Su should also know that although my Xihe Sword Sect can't do anything to you for the time being, I don't want to have anything to do with Your Excellency! ”

She turned her head to look at the little junior sister behind her, then turned back to look at Su Sanzai and continued: "So we accepted the apology, but the compensation is not necessary, I just hope that Mr. Su can settle down a little and don't act too much, otherwise don't blame my Sword Sect disciple for not recognizing people when he comes out of his sword!" ”

Su Sanzai shook his head again and again when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Look at what you said Mr. Twelve!" I've been here for so long, but I haven't done anything against the rules, isn't it the conscience of heaven and earth? ”

Li Twelve just quietly looked at Su Sanzai, who had an exaggerated expression and tone, talking to himself there, his face expressionless, cold as snow.

Su Sanzai, who was a little bored with himself, couldn't help but touch his nose, then thought about it and smiled: "Otherwise!" Since the two of you are not interested in the compensation below, why don't I send you a message for free as compensation? ”

He glanced at the girl standing behind Li Twelve, and said with a smile: "I heard that the kid surnamed Chu at the east entrance of the town has already embarked on the guillotine because of Shui Yun, but the bronze bell at his door seems to be a little interested in him, so I suggest that the thirteenth girl, you, you can go over there later, I think that kid should need some help, if the thirteenth girl is interested and wants to pay off the debt owed because of the knife in your hand, you can make another deal with him, there is a purchase and a sale, money and goods, It's not that you take advantage of him. ”

The stunning woman looked at the feminine and handsome man in black on the opposite side, her brows furrowed slightly, but after all, she didn't say anything, the girl in white behind her listened to Su Sanzai's words, lowered her head and thought about it, and then appeared from behind her senior sister, nodded towards Su Sanzai, and then turned around and left directly.

The stunning woman looked back at the girl who was getting farther and farther away, turned her head and stared at Su Sanzai coldly, as well as the green-shirted Confucian who had not spoken since just now, without saying a word, she disappeared directly.

The two men standing in the academy watched the two women, one older and one young, leave one after another, Su Sanzai glanced sideways at Cui Jue, and his eyes seemed to say: How is it, Lao Tzu is witty, right?

The Confucian raised his eyebrows and gave a look back, and said, "You should know that no matter what the outcome of this matter is, I am afraid that you will inevitably be chased and cut down by those few people who will come to the door in person." ”

Su Sanzai didn't care about Cui Jue's so-called reminder, waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay, if the master doesn't dare to be willing to cut his body, it will be incompetent, and if there is really a big disaster when the time comes, I will definitely say that you have a share in this matter!" Don't worry, the rules of the rivers and lakes, if you are beaten up for this kind of thing, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy! ”

……

At the east entrance of the town, the down-and-out boy Chu Yuanxiao did not get up early today, and slept directly until the third pole of the sun before getting up from the bed, washing briefly, and going out after gnawing half a dry and hard steamed bun, but he didn't go far, just walked a few steps to the entrance of the town, and sat under the trunk of the old locust tree.

The boy has always been diligent, it is not easy to eat alone, go to bed early and get up early to have more strength and energy to pull the three meals a day, but today is different, not because he is willing to lie in bed, just because since the second half of last night, he has been sore, weak, and the teenager who can't sleep after tossing and turning is secretly thinking in his heart, this is probably the sequelae of the so-called water rhyme being stripped away, right? The old monkey said before that once Shui Yun was robbed, he would be equivalent to stepping on the road of broken heads, and it was very likely that he would not live to be thirty years old.

Although the fallen young man who was sitting under the old locust tree had gotten up, he was still not very comfortable, and there was no one around Zhenkou, after he sat alone for a long time, he suddenly remembered the copper coin that the young man in black who looked at his brain not very well last night, so he raised his sore arm and touched it out of his arms, raised his head slightly and looked over and over again, there was a square hole in the middle of the copper coin, this shape was the same as the ordinary copper plates they usually used, he closed one eye, The copper plate is pinched in the hand and then covered with the other eye, and the eye can see through the small hole, and you can also see a small piece of the sky hanging above the treetops, blue as promised, white clouds, light and square.

Thousands of thousands of mountains are quiet and sunny, and the poor room leaks immortals and who smells them.

The young man put the coin in front of him, kept moving the position of the copper coin, and his eyes wandered back and forth, seeing the town from the sky, from the west of the town to the east of the town, and suddenly he saw through the small hole the girl in white who came out of a certain intersection on the north side of the long street, with a long sword on her back and a long knife on her waist.

The girl on the opposite side was probably a little surprised to see this young man look like this, and raised her eyebrows funny, which made the already somewhat embarrassed teenager even more embarrassed, he hurriedly took down the slightly larger copper coin, but after thinking about it, he didn't choose to put it back in his arms, just pinched it between his fingers, smiled and watched the good-looking girl slowly approach, and asked with a smile: "Miss Li, why are you free to come over today, is there anything wrong?" ”

The girl Li Yuyao's steps were not large, but she walked quickly, and it didn't take long to get to the front, she didn't answer the young man's question directly, first twisted her eyebrows and looked at the money thoughtfully, the light in her eyes flashed thoughtfully, and after a while, she moved her eyes to look at the young man, looked up and down, and said slowly: "I heard someone say in the township school, saying that you were robbed of the water charm you got from Xuannu Lake, so come and have a look." ”

The young man was a little surprised, but when he heard her say the word "village school", he probably understood the cause and effect, and heard the girl say: "I also heard from the little senior sister after I went back to the Li family, saying that you got the water rhyme that belongs to the northern Xuanwu, but I didn't expect it..."

The girl stopped talking after she was halfway through, which was tantamount to revealing a scar in front of her, and she didn't think it was good.

Chu Yuanxiao had digested it all night, but now he had calmed down, looked at the girl and smiled, "Well, I haven't even understood it, how can a good thing become a bad thing in the blink of an eye?" The old monkey said, "If this happens, I may not even live past the age of thirty..."

He shook his head with some pity, and said with a helpless expression: "I probably really haven't had a good life since I was a child, even if there is great luck coming, I don't have that good luck to keep." ”

Li Yuyao didn't answer when she heard this, she looked down again at the one that the young man was holding in his hand, which was slightly larger than the normal copper coin in terms of regulations, and then looked at the young man and said, "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

Chu Yuanxiao naturally saw the girl's eyes looking at the copper coin twice, but she didn't mention it directly at the moment, she just shook her head with a smile, "I don't know yet, I'm thinking that if I can't practice, how can I finish what I want to do before the age of thirty?" ”

As he spoke, he lowered his head and rubbed the money between his fingers, hesitated for a moment before raising his head, raised the coin, and said to the girl: "Miss Li, I won't go around the bend, a young man in black came to me last night, saying that I can recognize him as half a master, even if I can't practice, I can learn something else... Mr. Cui said that this choice was mixed, and he did not directly oppose it, and I asked the old monkey later, but he didn't seem to want to say it explicitly, and I don't know anyone else, I don't know if I can ask you, what is the matter with this money? ”

The girl in white with a sword and a sword on her back was a little surprised by the young man's confession, but at the same time she was a little inexplicably happy, after all, she could be trusted by a stranger who had known her for a long time, which was a happy thing, she bent her beautiful eyes slightly, and the corners of her ruddy and white lips were also curled, and after thinking about it, she explained: "In fact, about spending money and this kind of thing, there is not much attention in the fairy family, it is just a special copper coin used to beg for color and commemoration. Then mint some of the various coins that are not within the regulations, also known as the winning money, there are many types, such as the official treasury money used to suppress evil spirits, or the furnace money of the god Najib when the furnace is minted, and some are not poured through the money furnace, but carved by the money maker, such as the style carved mother money used as a royal custom recast regular copper coin, this kind of is not necessarily copper, ivory, jade or other materials, in general, there are many kinds of samples, and so on... Its own help to the cultivation of the Immortal Family is not as special as imagined, and it is useful for some specific things, but it is not universal. ”

The young man didn't seem to understand what he heard, and his face was a little confused.

Li Yuyao smiled when she saw this, raised her finger and pointed to the coin in his hand, and continued: "The most valuable thing about this coin in your hand is actually those four words, not so much how valuable the money is, but the person who gave you the money is very valuable." ”

Chu Yuanxiao naturally thought of the young man who made him feel that his brain was not very good, and also thought of the evaluation of him by the Tsing Yi teacher at that time, and hesitated for a moment: "I think... There's something weird about that guy..."

Li Yuyao smiled, didn't say much about the person's origin, just said: "This matter can only be chosen by yourself, I can't give you advice, and I can't give it, this trip is to see what your situation is, and second, to see if I can make another deal with you to repay the favor owed because of this knife?" ”

When the poor boy heard the girl's intention, he wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he hesitated and didn't speak, the matter of owe favors between people is not clear in many cases, you come and go in fact, there is no way to calculate the benefits just now, and more importantly, for the young man at this moment, in the dark, he vaguely feels that he will probably need this deal.

The girl in white seemed to be quite satisfied with the young man's reaction, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and the smile on her face was a little more than just now, she slowly stretched out three slender jade fingers, and smiled at the young man: "In general, there are three things I want to say. ”

Chu Yuanxiao was a little shaken by this girl's smile, and then smiled and didn't speak, waiting for her to finish, but saw the girl's wrist flip, I don't know where to conjure up a thin booklet, and handed it to the young man, and said: "This book is called "Spring and Autumn Immortal Instrument Spectrum", I bought it from the storyteller Mr. Lu in Wufang Pavilion before, I originally wanted to find a chance for you, which is considered the sincerity of doing business, but I didn't expect to fight directly later, so I didn't give it to it, but it's not too late to give it to you, It's not a valuable thing, it's just an atlas book that introduces the more famous immortal magic weapons that have appeared in Jiuzhou from ancient times to the present, and you can use it to read or write. ”

As she spoke, she reached out and patted the long knife hanging from her waist, and teased with a smile: "This combat knife whose real name is 'Great Xia Dragon Sparrow' is also recorded in this book, you can see what good things you missed when the time comes." ”

Chu Yuanxiao took the book when she heard this, but she didn't say much about the girl's brisk ridicule, just smiled and didn't care.

Li Yuyao didn't delay, looked up at the back of the dragon in the east of the town, and then continued to the young man: "The second thing is the fish and dragon pendant I gave you, there are many mysterious legends related to ancient times in the rivers and lakes of Jiuzhou, there was a great literati in the Middle Earth Divine Continent who wrote a book called "Huailu Tang Collection", which said that this fish dragon had another name called Kiss in the earlier years, and it was the last of the nine sons of the dragon,But there is still a wisp of its soul more or less.,I think it might help you a little.,This thing is not the magic weapon of the Xihe Sword Sect.,Although it also has some origin.,But you don't need to care about it for the time being.,As long as you don't give it to others, it doesn't matter.,I can promise that I won't take it back for the time being until you find a way.,It should be somewhat helpful for you who have no charm now.,At least it can help you stabilize your body as much as possible and don't deteriorate anymore, Although it still can't help you solve the problem of broken heads, it is better than nothing, maybe it can make you live a little longer, and there will be more opportunities to find a solution to the broken road. ”

As soon as these words came out, the girl didn't do anything, but the young man who was still sitting under the tree shook her head a little hesitantly, and hesitated: "Miss Li, I don't know much about you immortal methods, but I guess what you said... Ichthyosaurus jade pendant, it shouldn't be something that can be seen everywhere, right? I heard Mr. Lu tell some stories when he told me, such extremely precious things, more or less there will be rules such as not to be easily given to others, if you give it to me like this now, won't it have any effect on you? ”

Li Yuyao was stunned when she heard this, looked the young man up and down carefully, sneered, and said happily: "Alas, I said that you are also quite strange!" You've reached this point, it's not easy to have a life-saving straw, why do you still think that it's inconvenient for others? Shouldn't you just ignore it and get it in your hands first to save your life? ”

The young man smiled when he heard this, and subconsciously scratched his head, his expression was a little embarrassed, "Maybe a person has been living together for a long time, and he is used to trying not to cause trouble to others, right?" I'm not used to owing favors to others, even if I go to Fan Lao's shopkeeper to get things for money, I always want to give him more things, so that others can earn more, so you suddenly give such a precious thing, I... Some don't fit in. ”

The white-clothed girl on the opposite side listened to the words that the young man said in a calm and casual tone, and could hear his sincerity, and she was inexplicably a little sad, she shook her head and smiled: "You don't have to be too polite, I said before, this knife actually has a very big origin, although the jade pendant I gave you is also precious, but it is not as high as you imagined, it is still much worse than your knife, so you don't have to worry, I still don't lose money on this deal, and I don't count." ”

After the girl said this, she saw that the young man who had already held on to the tree pole and tried to stand up still looked hesitant, and said helplessly: "It's really hard to talk to you!" I've rarely talked so much to people before, and you can't be happy? I really don't love! ”

This made the boy feel even more embarrassed, looking at the girl's face that looked a little impatient, and he was embarrassed to say anything more to refuse.

Li Yuyao saw that the other party acquiesced, so she quietly hooked the corners of her lips, and then looked up at the tall sword mountain in the east of Zhendong called "The Back of the Dragon", and then turned around and continued: "The third thing is to talk about the matter of your Dao Guillotine Road, has that Mr. Hou explained to you in detail?" ”

Chu Yuanxiao thought about it for a while, as if he didn't clearly say why, but just said that if he lost Shui Yun, he would cut off the road of the Great Dao, and then he would have a short life, so he shook his head lightly at the girl, and said, "I only know that I may not be able to practice like you in the future, and I may not be able to live for too long, and the rest is not very clear." ”

The girl nodded, this was similar to what she thought, so she pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Then let me explain to you, why did you go on the road of the deadhead?" This one might work for you. ”

It is said that there has always been an inaccurate analogy on the rivers and lakes, when it comes to cultivation, the most important thing is the spiritual root, luck and closeness to the avenue, which is like a farmer in the countryside farming, the quality of the spiritual root in the body is equivalent to the fertility of the field, the more fertile the soil, the higher the yield will be when harvesting crops.

Whether you can plant seeds into the field on time without disaster or accident, whether you can meet God when there is a lack of rain, whether you can meet the rain at home when you are short of fertilizer, luck is very important at this time.

Getting close to the avenue is like seeing if God is willing to take care of you, you have half a bucket of water to water the ground, if God is willing to take care of you, he can fill your bucket in the rain and let you water the ground thoroughly.

The latter two seem to be the same thing in this analogy, but that's because it's just an inaccurate analogy, and it's completely different things when it comes to cultivation. The pursuit of all kinds of opportunities that are beneficial to cultivation depends on the good or bad luck of the qi, and whether the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is close to you or not, comparing it with the former is naturally another matter.

Chu Yuanxiao originally had a strong water rhyme about the monk's closeness to the avenue, just like filling him with half a bucket of water used to water the ground, pouring it in the ground can make the crops grow better and the harvest higher, this is a real good thing, but unfortunately someone stripped the water rhyme later, which is not only equivalent to taking away the second half of the bucket of water given by God, but also equivalent to directly taking away the bucket together, and the final result is that for this poor boy, he not only has no water to water, And even the opportunity to scoop water from other places to water has not been left, this consequence is tantamount to killing chickens to take eggs, drying up and fishing, which is why it is said that this step is the reason why the path of cultivation has reached a dead end.

Li Yuyao said these words, glanced at the peer standing under the tree, hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "The small world of the human body, the qi charm used to water the realm, before you set foot on the immortal path, there is no distinction between the five elements, just like a colorless and tasteless half bucket of water, when you get the water rhyme, it is equivalent to the half bucket of water added later has a color, so it causes the whole bucket of water to have a color, which is why there will be a later saying that the Great Dao is hydrophilic." Up and down the mountain, blessed land and cave, qi rhyme is not common, most of the immortal monks can only rely on their own only half a bucket of water to water the ground throughout their lives, so the avenue is not close, it is destined for a long time, but you don't even have a bucket now, in other words, you are a person who is equivalent to being directly abandoned by the avenue of heaven and earth in terms of cultivation, so you will not have any results in your cultivation no matter what, and because the stripping thing weakens your body qi and blood, so even the number of longevity has also suffered. ”

The young man standing under the tree listened to this large pile of introductions, only felt dizzy and a little dizzy, he thought about it and looked at the girl in white, and asked softly: "Miss Li, before me, has anyone else had this kind of thing happen?" ”

Li Yuyao glanced at the young man, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Then in the end, did any of them succeed in their cultivation?" When the young man asked this, there was a clear caution in his tone, but there was a subtle light in his eyes.

Then, he heard the voice of the girl on the other side with some pity and said lightly: "The cultivation of the world's nine continents has been inherited for a long time, and tens of thousands of years of time are flowing, but all those who have broken the road of the Great Dao in history have died in the end, without exception!" ”

Although Chu Yuanxiao had been prepared, he still couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he heard this result, he had hoped that there would be a case before, but now it sounded like he was saying that there was no such eventuality.

Just when the young man was about to give up his cultivation completely, thinking about whether to seek revenge in a different way, he heard the cold and beautiful girl on the other side follow lightly: "However, although no one has succeeded, there has been an inference that has been widely circulated in the rivers and lakes for thousands of years, and even if no one has done it, it has never disappeared." ”

The girl's voice paused, looking at the light that suddenly burst out in the young man's eyes, and said eight words in a flat tone: "Enter the Tao with your body, and practice the three paths!" ”
