After Chen Ping'an came out of the mountain, he went to the blacksmith shop first. When he walked past the stone arch bridge, the young man folded his hands together, lowered his head and walked quickly, with an extremely solemn and sincere expression, and he murmured: "The old god has something to say, don't hit people. If you have any requests, you can send me a dream at night, it's best not to go in broad daylight. I'm really a little scared."

Fortunately, when he reached the other end of the stone bridge, Chen Ping'an was safe and sound. The boy immediately smiled and went to find Master Ruan and Ruan Xiu.

The boy doesn't know the taste of sorrow.

Ruan Qiong was still entertaining Chen Ping'an under the eaves, each with a small bamboo chair. Ruan Xiu stood behind her father, with an unconcealed joy on his face.

Ruan Qiong saw the young man covered in straw sandals, carefully placed the basket in front of him, and gently took out the cloth bag wrapped in two mountain and river situation charts from most of the basket, and handed it to him, and said guiltily: "When climbing Mount Chaudeng, the mountain road was blocked by a large waterfall. I found a place to hide the basket near the deep pool under the waterfall, and built a small tree shelf to shelter from the wind and rain. Unexpectedly, it rained heavily not long after climbing to the top of the waterfall. The rain was too heavy. When I went down quickly, the tree shelf had indeed been crushed, and the basket and cotton bags were soaked in the rain. Fortunately, the two maps were wrapped tightly in butter paper. When the sun came out, I took it out and looked at it. It was a little wet at the corners of the map, but there were still obvious traces after it was dried..."

Ruan Qiong opened the cloth bag and butter paper and found that the two maps were almost intact, and the damage was negligible. Besides, there were only two copy maps, so the Kiln Supervision and Construction Office and the Longquan County Government had no intention of taking them back. However, Ruan Qiong was unwilling to use this truth to comfort the young man. He glanced at Chen Ping'an, who was standing in front of him and asked: "During the heavy rain, climb up and down the Longqiu Waterfall in Chaudengdeng Mountain, are you looking for death?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and didn't say anything.

Ruan Qiong waved his hand and signaled the boy to sit back and not stand in front of him and be upset.

Chen Ping'an sat back on the cute and green bamboo chair. When he returned the two maps to Master Ruan, he finally felt relieved. If he hadn't been afraid of ruining the two precious maps along the way, he would have saved at least three or four days in this trip. Moreover, the boy who has been dependent on each other for so long and has always been nostalgic, is actually a little reluctant to leave the two maps deep in his heart. Whenever the weather is clear and he climbs up and looks far away, Chen Ping'an likes to choose a place with the widest view, then spread the two maps, raise his eyes and look at the mountains and rivers, and retracts his gaze and looks down at the map.

For more than half a month, Chen Ping'an never felt that he had been so fulfilled.

Ruan Qiong suddenly threw the two maps to Chen Ping'an, "The chair is not bad, I will make two more pictures in the future, and I will treat the map as a reward, and I will give it to you."

Although Ruan Qiong still doesn't like this young man in Nipin Lane, Ruan Qiong didn't completely deny Chen Ping'an because of this.

Ruan Qiong could fully imagine that scene. In a heavy rain, the anxious thin young man walked down the waterfall, just to take a look at the map to be at ease.

Of course, in Ruan Qiong's eyes, this behavior is not heroic at all, but on the contrary is very stereotyped and pedantic.

To be honest, compared to this bitter boy, Ruan Qiong admires Song Jixin, the prince of Dali who knows how to judge the situation at a young age, or Liu Xianyang, who is cheerful by nature and has no worries about everything, and even Ma Kuxuan, who is sharp, has many advantages. Even Zhao Yao, who has followed Qi Jingchun since childhood, is not as rigid as Chen Ping'an.

The reason why he changed his mind temporarily and gave Chen Ping'an a reason to give the map to Chen Ping'an was actually determined to draw a clear line with this young man. The blacksmith shop could accommodate him as a sword-casting apprentice, but he would never become his pioneer disciple. In the future, he would protect the mountain he bought as promised, but this kid would never want to have any involvement with his daughter.

In fact, after all, Ruan Qiong did not look down on Chen Ping'an because of his background, but did not plan for each other.

Ruan Qiong's apprentice must be his fellow disciples, both of whom are both teachers and friends, and can join forces to create a prosperous era for the sect for thousands of years, so it is extremely important to be consistent in temperament.

Chen Ping'an naturally didn't know that Master Ruan's thoughts had gone around so much. The boy just took the map, held it in his arms, and asked, "Will the supervisor of the government office have any ideas?"

Ruan Qiong sneered: "At least for sixty years, I am the Supreme Emperor of Longquan County, so I have the greatest rules."

Ruan Xiu muttered: "Dad, how can you be so giggled to your face?"

Ruan Qiong ignored his daughter's sabotage and said in a deep voice to Chen Ping'an: "When it comes to serious business, which five mountains did you choose in the end?"

Chen Ping'an subconsciously sat upright, "Around Shenxiu Mountain, I chose three, Baolu Mountain, Caiyun Peak, and Xiancao Mountain."

Ruan Qiong nodded, "The vision is pretty good. Baolu Mountain occupies a large area and ranks among more than 60 mountains, and it is not an empty aura. If I hadn't considered the mountain protection formation in the future, I would have abandoned Henglu Peak and chose Baolu Mountain. After all, among these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, unless the mountain god is in charge or has secret treasures, whoever has a larger territory will have more spiritual energy, and he will definitely take advantage of it."

"Xiancao Mountain is the only Feng Shui treasure land that is expected to give birth to the essence of plants and trees. Unfortunately, the place is too small. Even if one appears, the roots and quality should not be too good. The reason is very simple. How can a small pond raise a big dragon? As for Caiyun Peak, it is relatively average. Apart from the high terrain and beautiful scenery, it does not benefit much from practicing. Unless you have the ability to get Yungen Stone from Yunxia Mountain and place it in several mountain acupoints on Caiyun Peak, it may be a good deal."

"You haven't seen the lake in Huanghu Mountain?"

Ruan Qiong's last question made Chen Ping'an stunned, "I've seen it."

"You go ahead, what are two more hills?"

Ruan Qiong stopped when he clicked, but did not continue the previous topic. It was considered that the benevolence and righteousness were over, and the mystery would no longer be revealed.

Because the small lake in Huanghu Mountain has a similar effect to Xiancao Mountain. The difference is that Xiancao Mountain has hope of showing the essence of plants and trees. Huanghu Mountain is surrounded by a python as thick as a wellhead, which is a veritable "local snake". It is just that it was unfortunately defeated in the "water battle" with a small loach and lost the opportunity to the road that is close to you.

But the wonder of the great way is that there is no way to go. Now that the Lizhu Cave Heaven is broken and fallen, the golden carp of the Great Sui Dynasty was captured by the Dragon King basket, and turned into the fire dragon with the bracelet on Ruan Xiu's wrist, the loach beside Liu Zhimao, the wooden dragon with the finishing touch by Zhao Yao, and the earth-yellow four-legged snake who tried his best to follow Wang Zhu. These five small things are the Li Xiaozhu Cave Heaven. When it is about to die in three thousand years, the five great opportunities have been accumulated. As for those magic weapons and spiritual weapons such as sword gourds and demon mirrors, of course, they are definitely not bad, but they are still much inferior to those five living blessings.

The big python in Huanghu Mountain is now a blessing in disguise. With a radius of thousands of miles, no opponent can compete with it and become the overlord who dominates the country in one fell swoop. In the future, once the mountain god, the river god, enters it, the big python can be recruited by one of them and obtain the amulet of the government of the Dali court. Maybe it will be a smooth road from now on and truly embark on the road of cultivation.

Chen Ping'an said: "I plan to buy Zhenzhu Mountain and Luopo Mountain."

Ruan Qiong was stunned for a moment and asked curiously: "It's fine to be Zhenzhu Mountain, just a money for welcome spring, it can be said that it's hard to buy a good thing for a thousand gold coins. But how did you like that? Logically speaking, this mountain is located in the southwest border of Longquan County of Dali. According to your itinerary, you must have never been there. It was the banned mountain of Dali before, so you chose it with just one name?"

Chen Ping'an was a little ashamed and was unwilling to tell the reason.

At that time, Chen Ping'an was spreading the map and was hesitant to choose which mountain to choose. As a result, a bird passed by his head and actually pulled a piece of shit on the situation chart. Chen Ping'an quickly wiped it clean and found that the location of the shit before was just on the three words "Liaopo Mountain". Chen Ping'an no longer thought about anything, so he resolutely chose Luopo Mountain, regardless of whether the mountain was not bad or not.

Old man Yao once said that there are gods between the mountains and rivers.

So Chen Ping'an regarded it as a hint from Master Shan God.

Ruan Qiong thought for a while, "It's not impossible to choose Luopo Mountain. Then let's decide, Luopo Mountain, Baolu Mountain, Xiancao Mountain, Caiyun Peak, Zhenzhu Mountain. Five mountains, three hundred years, during this period, even if you hollow out all one of the mountain, there will be no one to stop it. Everything on the mountain, whether it is plants, trees, elixirs, birds and animals, or even secret treasures obtained by chance, belongs to the name of the person who was labeled in the Dali Mountain River Genealogy Contract."

Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "I understand."

Ruan Qiong said patiently: "One thing to note is that before you die, you must inform the Dali court of the Dali court through the Longquan County Government that you need to change the names or names of some individuals that inherit the five hills. Of course, the Dali Ministry of Revenue will store a secret file. You can write a beneficiary of the inheritance in the five hills under your name, so that you will not have time to explain your funeral before you die. Another thing is that within three hundred years, if you want to sell the hills, you cannot decide anytime and anywhere. You must agree through the nod of the three forces in the Dali government, so that the transaction can be achieved. And I do not recommend you to sell these hills, because no matter what high price you sell, you will find that you have lost money in the end."

Although Ruan Qiong was a military saint who was in charge of the country, he discussed affairs on the same level with a young man who suddenly became rich and wealthy. It seemed absurd, but it was actually reasonable. It involved the great cause of establishing a country and establishing a faction, and the opportunity of his daughter to prove his truth. Ruan Qiong was not allowed to do anything and wish to break the truth and explain it to the young man in front of him.

Ruan Qiong asked, "Chen Ping'an, do you have anything to ask?"

Chen Ping'an shook his head and smiled, "It's gone."

Ruan Qiong nodded and said, "Then let's do it first. I guess you still have some copper coins left. I'll help you pay attention to the shop transactions in the town. You can also take the opportunity to buy it, but you won't be able to chew too much. In the future, the forces in the town are mixed with all the fish and dragons. You can buy one or two old-fashioned shops with relatively thick foundations."

Chen Ping'an's face turned slightly red, "Thank you, Master Ruan."

Ruan Qiong laughed at himself: "A gentleman cherishes virtue, while a villain cherishes soil."

Chen Ping'an was a little confused because he didn't understand what this sentence meant.

Ruan Qiong waved his hand and rushed the person and said, "You are busy with your own heart, don't worry about these things. Besides, you are young and are not as good as you can talk about your heart and state."

Chen Ping'an stood up and carried the basket. Suddenly he heard Ruan Qiong say something stupid, "After Mr. Qi left, he will miss Mr. Qi occasionally. Of course, there is no problem. It is human nature, but don't let yourself get in, and don't think about digging the bottom. When you buy five hills and one or two shops, you will be comfortable and lie down and collect money, marry and have children, and have branches and leaves. It is also considered to be a glorious family. Whether I, Ruan Qiong or the Dali court, will take care of you and your family business. Just like your name, peace and safety are more important than anything else. I, cannot be said to be able to operate one day in the future and embark on the road of cultivation, and there is no lack of chance."

Chen Ping'an left silently.

After the boy left the shop, Ruan Xiu sat on a bamboo chair and asked, "Dad, what do you mean?"

Ruan Qiong said calmly: "It means that a villain whose ideological level is not as good as a gentleman will only focus on thinking and gain a place of comfort."

Ruan Xiu said strangely: "What's wrong with this? An earth is relocated and can't find any problem, why is it a villain? Who said this sentence? I don't think it's reasonable."

Ruan Qiong's face was dark and he said softly: "So the Confucian sage said again, "When my heart is at peace, I will be in my hometown."

Ruan Xiu said angrily: "Scholars are so annoying. They have told them all the truths in the world!"

Ruan Qiong said earnestly: "Xiuxiu, this is not the reason why you don't like to read."

The ponytail girl pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, and quickly stood up and said, "Dad, why did I suddenly have more strength? Then I'm going to miss the iron."

———

Chen Ping'an rushed to Yang's shop and gave most of the baskets of various herbs to a shopkeeper. After weighing the pounds, Chen Ping'an got two taels of silver. In fact, many rare herbs were sold by Chen Ping'an and given to the shop half and half. Some of the young shopkeepers could not recognize the herbs that were not ignorant. In fact, they were important medicinal materials that Old Man Yang valued quite a lot. These flowers and plants were truly valuable.

However, Chen Ping'an's trip to the mountain was to pick and pick herbs, and he didn't think about making money. In fact, after Chen Ping'an learned to go into the mountain to burn charcoal, he sold medicine to the Yang Family Store's shop's shop almost every time. Except for the honest man named Li Er in the store, he lost money dozens of times.

Old Man Yang never charges Chen Ping'an's medicinal materials. If Chen Ping'an dares to give it to the shop for free, he will be thrown on the street by Old Man Yang. But if he sells it to a shopkeeper or a doctor, no matter what the outrageous price, Old Man Yang with a weird temperament will ignore it.

This time Chen Ping'an did not see Old Man Yang.

After walking out of the shop, Chen Ping'an found that many people were talking about it on the road, saying that something big happened to the twelve-legged crab archway. It was said that it was the old supervisor, the Lord Song who paid for the construction of the bridge before leaving office, who returned to the town in a glorious manner. And this time, as a doctor of the Ministry of Rites, he brought a group of famous officials with a group of polite and majestic officials to the words on the four plaques of the crab archway. After all, they are all scholars, which is understandable, but for some reason, after receiving the news from the office of the Supervisor, he immediately entered the mountain with his butt and informed the Lord Wu who had originally planned to go to Yuanmu Peak to check the logging matters. Then the God of Wealth brought his staff and assistants to the officials and went out together in a hurry to stop the old senior Song of the officialdom.

Chen Ping'an, who was light and was walking along the flow of people to the archway building, standing far away from the crowd.

I saw eight ladders set up under the plaques in all directions, with one ladder on both sides of the plaque. But at that moment there were only two Confucian scholars with great age differences, one of whom was lowering his head, as if he was speaking harshly at someone under his feet, and scolding something with the official Dali language outside.

Someone patted Chen Ping'an on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Chen Ping'an, it's such a coincidence. Do you think it's annoying?"

Chen Ping'an turned his head and saw that it was the squirming boy with a small vermilion mole on his eyebrows. He was really afraid of his nagging, so he said, "Look at it casually, I don't seem to understand what they are saying, so I'll go home immediately."

The young man with a elegant and elegant look smiled and said, "Don't, you don't understand, I can explain it to you. This matter is interesting. If you miss it, you will definitely regret it in the future! Your small town parent official, Lord Wu Yuan, is now in conflict with the men of the Ministry of Rites with higher ranks. Standing on the stairs, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, is considered a serious official of Dali. On the one hand, it is probably the former former supervisor of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Song, who has a seniority, has patted the chest and asked for credit for the matter of the plaque, and said that he would keep the plaque for you and leave it back to your hometown. He dare not say it. It is definitely a matter of delivery to the Ministry of Rites. So this

He became a doctor of the fifth rank, so this time, the masters of the Ministry of Rites took advantage of the enthronement of the mountain god, the river god, and came to collect things with justice. On the other hand, Lord Xiao Wu, who regarded all the treasures in the town as their forbidden food, how could he agree to it when he heard someone was going to take away the few precious old objects left in the town? He took a step back and said that even if he was willing to pinch his nose and was so angry, he had to know that there were so many old foxes in the four tribes and ten clans who were holding up bad jokes next to him. If he pretended to be a grandfather at this time, it would be difficult for him to become the grandfather of those big clans in the future. The location selection of the Wenwu Temple, which was not smooth, would definitely be ruined."

After listening carefully to the young man's explanation, Chen Ping'an asked: "Who are you? How do you know so much?"

The young man stretched out a finger, pointed at himself, and smiled and said, "I? Haha, I am not a decree official in the Dali court. My surname is Cui and my name is Lin. The word "明" is quite rare and difficult to write. It's very troublesome, so you don't have to worry about it."

Chen Ping'an looked into the boy's eyes.

The boy looked calm and laughed: "I am older than you, so you can call me Master Cui."

Chen Ping'an smiled.

The boy also laughed and gently rubbed his cheeks with his hands, "It's okay, I have a nickname, it should be easier to shout, called Xiuhu."
