The carriage on the official road was getting farther and farther away, but he didn't know that there was a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe watching every move of the carriage in the clouds.

The middle-aged man in the robe pinched his fingers, and the last mouthful of blood spurted out, almost carrying it down the clouds.

"Damn, this is a monster from which sacred mountain, it's not a member of the Holy Land Clan, this fate can't be touched!"

"I hope this unfilial disciple will come to work from time to time!"

In the middle of the frame, there was a small table, on which there was wine and food, and the stubborn young man was the only son of the county guard of Qinghe County.

Named Lu Wen, the family is not easy to discipline, and his parents also let him play, although he often makes some noise, but his heart is still good, he will not hurt people's lives, and he is gentle, so the county guard is also satisfied with this son.

Because of his stubbornness, he entered the Lingxi Sect to cultivate for two years, and although he read a little book, he still had a ruffian habit.

When they saw Xia Ziyu and them getting into the car, they didn't want to be happier, and the scolding words sounded a little fresh and refined to Xia Ziyu.

Resident on the mountain, don't ask about human affairs!

It can be regarded as having seen this interesting place in the world, don't look at this stubborn son, he seems to be ignorant of the world, but he knows a lot about the things of the world.

Qing Geng pulled the curtain of the car frame and looked out, the scene above the clouds was in his eyes, and he laughed secretly, but there was nothing taboo, if he wanted to calculate Xia Xiaozi, he couldn't do it with the middle-aged robes in the clouds.

Not to mention that the robe is middle-aged, even he can't do it, Xia Ziyu's life has been integrated with this heaven and earth, as long as it is in this world, no one can calculate Xia Ziyu's life.

Qing Geng was a little curious, what kind of sparks would a person as unattainable as Xia Ziyu collide with this mortal person after entering the mortal world.

What kind of changes will two completely different people bring to Xia Ziyu, and it is also thanks to him that he is ruthless, changes into a human form, and comes out with Xia Ziyu, otherwise he will not be able to see such an interesting thing.

Qing Geng looked at Lu Wen, there was a heroic spirit in his belly, he was indeed a person who had read books, although he was inconspicuous in his eyes, but he was indeed a rare reader in this world.

The cat demon of the mountain temple was the same before, but he didn't know why the cat demon chose such a path, although he didn't know much about the secular rules of this world, but some rules were common in all the heavens and all worlds.

He thought quietly, and there was a sound of Lu Wen chattering in his ears, and it was not an exaggeration to say that Xia Ziyu was listening quietly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

Lu Wen took a sip of wine and asked, "This son, seeing that you are also rich and noble, why don't you have an entourage or anything when you travel?"

Xia Ziyu smiled indifferently when he heard this: "We are bored at home, and we want to come out for a walk, well, it's the so-called chivalrous righteousness." ”

"You still have such a cute child, aren't you too troublesome?" Lu Wen was a little curious.

Xia Ziyu smiled: "What's the matter?

"Hey, that's not it, it's just that in this world, most of the people who do chivalry and righteousness are people from the rivers and lakes, or people from the mountains, they either carry knives on their waists, or they carry swords on their backs and walk in the world. ”

"It's just that I've never seen people like you, who don't seem to have the slightest bit of charlatanism, but like those children of scholarly families who come out to play in the mountains and rivers, and like those Confucian protégés. ”

Lu Wen touched the long sword on his leg, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile: "When I was a child, I just wanted to be a swordsman who fought the sword world, and now I have fulfilled half of my wish." ”

"I still remember when I was a child, when I told my old man about my dream, I was stunned that he ran all over the yard with a broom, but I didn't expect that in the end he personally sent me on this road. ”

Xia Ziyu looked at the cynical young man in front of him, feeling very interesting, his words were somewhat similar to Chu Tianling, and he was also the same bohemian and uninhibited, ruffian.

He asked: "Tell us about it, it's the first time I've heard of this rule, and it also opens our eyes, otherwise we won't be laughed at when the time comes." ”

Lu Wen instantly became interested, and said: "Actually, there are no big rules, that is, ordinary people will ask you which family you are from, or people from that mountain." ”

Xia Ziyu was puzzled: "Is there any difference?"

"The difference between this is great, which is divided into secular people and mountain people, mountain people are generally called immortals by mortals, because these people are flying in the eyes of mortals, unattainable. ”

"Actually, aren't all of his grandmother's people, haven't they just learned to cultivate? ”

Lu Wen scolded and scolded, and there was no respect for the so-called mountain man between his eyebrows.

Xia Ziyu took over the conversation and said, "Is it similar to the so-called mountain god?"

"It's almost that Li'er, but there are still some differences in this, the mountain gods are sealed by these mountain people and secular countries, which is equivalent to a prince, and they don't listen to the announcement. ”

"And the people on the mountain are above the worldly realm, and even many rules are set by them, and there are countless people in the hundreds of sects on this mountain, and there are also a lot of people walking in the world. ”

"They walk in order to absorb the incense of the world and increase their cultivation while doing chivalrous deeds. Lu Wen preached.

Listening to Lu Wen's words, Xia Ziyu understood that these people were actually similar to the mountain gods in the mountain temple, and they were just absorbing the power of the human world to cultivate.

This is a completely different cultivation system from the Holy Land Clan, the Holy Land Clan is to absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth to cultivate, and the path they take is completely pure, and these mountain immortals walking in the mortal world are also fused with the human wishing power, which is more complicated.

And although he has not been in contact with the hundreds of sects, he has seen some of them, and everyone in those hundreds of sects is the same as them, but he never thought that the scope of these hundred sects is so wide.

Lu Wen saw that Xia Ziyu was deep in thought, so he continued to speak: "Actually, these mountain people, their respective disputes are also extremely complicated, each of them has a different layout in secret, competing with each other, and they have been fighting for I don't know how many years. ”

Xia Ziyu was not surprised by these things, after all, in this secular world where Taoism is mixed, it is strange that there is no dispute, just like those Holy Land clans, they seem to be amiable, and they have secretly fought I don't know how many times.

"What are these so-called hundred sects?" Xia Ziyu asked, this is what Xia Ziyu is curious about.

Lu Wen smiled and said: "Niang, this is a lot, what Confucianism, Taoism, soldiers, legalists, yin and yang, Mo families...... It's a lot. ”

"In this ancient Huai country, the most eye-catching one belongs to the unique Confucianism, a heroic spirit, and can read the great truth, his grandmother's, the highest saints of their Confucianism. ”

"Master, although I am not a Confucian protégé, I still admire it tightly, this group of people who are full of literature and ink, every day they open their mouths and close their mouths are rules, big truth, why don't you say they are not annoying, how can we Taoist children be free. ”

Xia Ziyu was stunned and smiled, he thought that this Lu Wen was saying that he admired this Confucian disciple for being able to read and abide by the rules, and he was ridiculing others and raising his figure for a long time, which was really interesting.

Lu Wen didn't think it was anything, after all, he was a Taoist protégé, there was nothing to be ashamed of, he looked at Xia Ziyu and asked, "This son, I don't know what your surname is?"

"Xia Ziyu, that one is my elder, called Qing Geng, and this is my little sister, Qin Hongyi. Xia Ziyu pointed out with a smile, and directly omitted Bai Qing, because Bai Qing is a big demon, and it is impossible to tell this Lu Wen that Bai Qing is his brother.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will scare the son of the county guard, although he is from the mountain, but this is also a bit shocking.

"It turned out to be Xia Gongzi, haha, I don't know how many young women will attract the attention of this leather bag when entering the sacrificial city, if you put a long sword on your back, you will be a sword immortal alive, graceful!" Lu Wen said with a smile.

Xia Ziyu just shook his head slightly, his thoughts didn't know where to fly, even though this mundane world was interesting, but his heart never really stepped in, it was a little bit meaningless.

"Young Master Xia, you might as well put on a long sword on your back, and go to my house with my little brother to have a look, and when the time comes, you can boast to my old man, the little master is also a person who has friends. Lu Wen invited intentionally or unintentionally.

In the past, he always hated iron and steel, saying that he had no friends, was idle all day long, and did not do his job, although he had a good life in Lingxi Sect in the past two years, but there were really no real confidant friends.

This river and lake is not easy to mix, people's calculations are everywhere, even in the mountains, it is inevitable, some disciples covet his position, and secretly give him an unknown number of sets, if it weren't for the words that he was arrogant all day long, pretending to be crazy and stupid, and not knowing how many times he died, it was not just talking.

Xia Ziyu didn't refuse his invitation, but the idea of carrying a long sword was still dispelled, not to mention that his swords were a little scary, even if he wanted to carry them, he had to have a scabbard worthy of it, he didn't want to insult his sword.

Lu Wen was so happy that he scolded with a smile: "Dog's day, I have never been so happy as today in these years, and when I go back, I want to go to the city for three or two days, but I don't know if the top card of the Liyuan Building is still as beautiful as before leaving home." ”

Xia Ziyu smiled, didn't speak, just watched, his eyes fell on this stubborn son, and looked at Lu Wen, Qing Geng had already told him that this Lu Wen's cultivation was roughly equivalent to the martial arts realm.

It's not bad in this world, after all, not everyone is like those disciples of the Holy Land Clan, who are born with heavenly and earthly treasures to cast the foundation.

Guhuai country, Qinghe County.

In the county government, a middle-aged man in an official uniform looked at a letter from home and couldn't help laughing.

"Master, are you reading Wen'er's letter again?" said a woman, smiling, pouring him tea.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Madam, Wen'er's little cub is about to arrive home, and now it is estimated that he will soon arrive at the sacrifice city, and it is estimated that he will be able to come back the day after tomorrow." ”

The woman sat on the chair and said, "Master, it's a good thing that Wen'er is back, but the situation in Qinghe County is ...... now."

When the middle-aged man heard this, his brows furrowed, a wisp of sadness crawled all over his face, and he said softly: "There is some trouble, the battle between the gods and immortals on the mountain, but it is we who are powerless to restrain the people under the mountain." ”

"I don't know what the thoughts of the mountain people are, I just hope it doesn't affect us, now there are three mountain people in the county, Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism, and I don't know who the mountain in this county will end up with?"

The woman's face turned slightly pale and said, "Master, this matter won't affect Wen'er, right?"

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, and said: "It's a blessing or a curse, you can't hide from what should come, now it's not just our Qinghe County, but the entire Guhuai country is in turmoil." ”

Qinghe County covers an area of thousands of miles, among which there is a spiritual mountain, this spiritual mountain has not been enshrined by the mountain god, several hundred sects are not in a hurry, now it is the time of the replacement of the old and new in the ancient Huai country, the hundred sects have gone down the mountain, want to become the orthodoxy of the ancient Huai country.

It is precisely because of this that this Qinghe County has become a fragrant dumpling for a while, and the spiritual mountain that has not yet been enshrined as a mountain god has become a place for them to compete for, and who will end up depends on their own nature.

Confucian scholars advocate that the Great Easy to Heal the Country, the Great Easy to Heal the People.

Paying attention to the spirit of humanism and order is the rule of Confucianism.

A hundred years ago, the ancient Huai Kingdom chose Confucianism as the orthodoxy, preaching Confucian teachings, and emphasizing literature over military force in the court, and acting with people is a matter of reason.

But it can't be said that Confucianism doesn't cultivate, Confucian cultivation is reading, and the book has its own Confucian avenue and its own heroic righteousness.

It is precisely because of this that Confucianism has a weighty position in the ancient Huai country, even if the ancient Huai country is about to change, it still has an influence that cannot be underestimated.

Taoism pays attention to a natural and trendy, but there are also extremely strict rules in the etiquette system, especially the human sect, which often walks in the world and preaches the teachings of Taoism.

As for the Legalists, they are not close to each other, they are not special to the noble and the lowly, they are judged by law, they pay attention to the rule of law, enrich the country and strengthen the army, and they are extremely popular among the secular dynasties, that is, in the ancient Huai country, although it is not an orthodox academic, but among the nobles of the royal palace, it is still advocated.

Therefore, this game of the three is unfolding in this Guhuai country, using the Guhuai country as a chessboard, and trying to win or lose in it.

Qinghe County has been laid out by the three great powers, and all the people on the mountain cannot use cultivation when they enter it, and if they want to fight for that spiritual mountain, they have to find a way among the secular officials.

And among them, the county guard of Qinghe County is the first to bear the brunt, even if he doesn't want to be involved in this turmoil, but he is in his position, he will inevitably have to make a choice.

It was difficult for him to choose whichever one he wanted, after all, the situation in the Guhuai Kingdom was still unclear, and if he made a hasty choice, the choice made by the Imperial City would be contrary to his choice.

So whether the black veil on his head can be kept, is a dilemma, in fact, in his heart is inclined to Confucianism, he is a scholar, and he naturally has that heroic righteousness in his belly, and over the years, with the help of Confucianism, it can be regarded as the country and the people.

This is what he is most happy to see as a parent official, in fact, the Legalist family is not bad, that is, the change will bring extremely far-reaching pain to the Guhuai country, although the rule of law seems to be a good thing, but in his opinion, in fact, it can't solve the problem of weak national strength.

On the contrary, it will make the surrounding secular dynasties more and more jealous, and it is not possible that one day the army will overwhelm the territory, Taoism He doesn't think about it at all, the Taoist sect is a group of radicals, he will not agree to anything, Taoism has become the orthodoxy of the ancient Huai country.

But these are not for him as a mortal to decide, the final decision is still in the imperial city, and it is also a loss that the sect that sent his little cub to the first place is not a branch of the Taoist sect, otherwise he is afraid that the father will have a dispute with the little cub again.

Thinking of this, the county keeper's eyebrows stretched, he hadn't seen his son for two years, and he didn't know if he had grown taller or not, and if he had a favorite girl.

A spiritual mountain is 300 zhang high, and the stone tablet at the foot of the mountain marks the name of the mountain - Wenxiu Peak.

This is exactly the place where the three families want to fight, this place has gathered spiritual energy in the past hundred years, and these so-called mountain people were not eyed by it a hundred years ago, but recently, this mountain peak has the potential to take off, and it has the meaning of dominating the top.

Therefore, the three mountain immortals fell in love with this place, and wanted to seal a mountain god for their own Taoism, so that when the overall situation is settled, their own family will inevitably have more incense in the world.

A man in a Confucian shirt stood with his hands in his hands, looked up at the mountain peak, and said: "It is a place of beauty, but it is worthy of the word Wenxiu." ”

The sound fell, and he walked towards the mountain by himself, and the names of the mountains and villages that passed by him all knew how to say, hello sir.

In the ancient Huai country, whether it is the people of the government or the opposition, or the people in the countryside, they can read some books, so they have great respect for Confucian people.

And the man in the Confucian shirt is a Confucian gentleman, and he went up the mountain this time to see if this Wenxiu Peak builds a mountain temple in the future, which can accumulate some heroic righteousness for Confucianism.

The man in the Confucian shirt went up the mountain and saw an old man in tattered clothes, stepped forward and saluted: "I didn't expect that Renzong actually came out of your old man's house." ”

"What's the matter, old man, I can't come out, or do you bookish stink worms want the old man to die?" said the old man in tattered clothes, and he didn't take the man in the shirt with his eyes.

The man in the Confucian shirt shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What are you talking about, old man, even if our two families have different doctrines, we don't want to choke on fire like this, right?"

"Fuck your uncle, Lao Tzu has always been unaccustomed to you hypocrites who are full of benevolence and morality, and I obviously want the old man to die immediately, and I still don't admit it!" The old man in tattered clothes seemed to be a little nonsense and a little disgusted.

The man in the Confucian shirt was also good-tempered, but he turned to look at the bottom of the mountain, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

He said softly: "Old man, do you see if this is ......?"

"The view is unique!"
