Zhu Lian sat at the top of the steps, and the tiger Wei Bo stood aside, looking at the little fool with flying eyebrows at the gate of the mountain.

Wei Bo hurried before Chen Lingjun and found the Yujiang Water God who was sending a message to Luoluo Mountain with his flying sword.

In fact, it was the instruction of the mountain owner Chen Pingan.

It seemed that he had expected this to happen, saying that if he happened not to be on the mountain, the sword-wielding water god would come to see Chen Lingjun again. If it was really just drinking, that would be great. Let Chen Lingjun go to Luopo Mountain before going

It's okay to have a drink at Piyun Mountain, and ask Zhu Lian to say hello to Wei Bo, saying that he promised Chen Lingjun. But if Chen Lingjun is asked to help again, then Feijian will send a message to Luo Po Mountain, and Zhu Lian will

I notified Wei Bo as soon as possible and asked Wei Shanjun to block the door. If I could help, I would try my best to help. If you need to convert it into fairy money, you don't need to be polite to Luo Po Shan. Just treat it as a brother and settle the accounts openly.

But I have to remind the river-controlling water god carefully, so I won’t do it again.

Wei Bo asked curiously: "If Yujiang Water God doesn't say this today? Will Chen Ping'an really invite him to drink on the mountain?"

Zhu Lian smiled and said, "Of course. Otherwise, what do you think? My young master is actually very fond of this uncle Chen. Since Chen Lingjun is stupid, the young master will also be stupid with him."

Otherwise, he would not have deliberately left the position of Protector of Luo Luo Shan Zuo vacant for many years.

Just talking about Chen Lingjun's trip to Dadu River in Luzhou, Beiju, how much thought did his son spend? In Cui Dongshan's words, he even wanted to carefully mark out where to go to the toilet.

Zhu Lian raised his hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked with a smile: "What help did you help?"

Wei Bo twitched the corner of his mouth and said angrily: "Fortunately, no lions opened their mouths. It's just that this time in the mountain and water god assessment, at the Yujiang Water God's Mansion, I originally got a 'C', but I helped raise it to a level and was promoted to

It’s ‘Yixi’.”

Only the two Gonghou Water Palaces at the Five Mountains boundary of Aquarius Island and Dadu in the central part are qualified to hold the landscape evaluation every ten years. The evaluation of the various landscape gods and city god temples in their respective jurisdictions has a total of only three grades, A, B, and C.

, A is hanging in the air, which is actually just for show. Unless it is a person with great merit, this comment will not be given. A person with a lower level can be promoted to one level. Therefore, a person with a middle level can be promoted by skipping a level.

Generally speaking, the Dali court is only responsible for inspections and is unlikely to overturn a certain evaluation result, unless it is a "A-top" comment, which requires His Majesty the Emperor to hold a court meeting. If there is a landscape god who is rated as "A-top", it will be dismissed by the later dynasty.

The matter in the imperial study room was put on the agenda. As for the subordinates, all that was needed was for the Minister of Rites, who was responsible for the Shanshui Genealogy, to contact Wuyue Mountain Monarch and Dadu Gonghou Mansion privately.

Zhu Lian clicked his tongue and said, "Is this a small favor? According to the laws of Dali, if you are graded as 'C', you will be left with nothing to eat."

If it is the lowest level C, you will lose your divine status directly. If you are in C, your golden body will be lowered by one rank. If you are in C, your rank will remain unchanged. However, in addition to observing the effects, if you fail to reach B in the next evaluation

If you are in the middle, even if you are in the bottom of B, you will still be lowered to a lower level.

I believe this is the reason why Yujiang Water God dared to come to Luopo Mountain to find Chen Lingjun.

Otherwise, the current landscape gods of Aquarius Continent, let alone the fifth-grade water gods of a small country belonging to the Great Li Fan, are probably high-ranking third-grade water gods. As long as there is no incense accumulated in the early years, no one can guarantee that they will reach the gate of Luoluo Mountain.

, you will definitely be able to climb mountains.

Therefore, who dares to rush to the Luolu Mountain to be a guest? The reason is very simple. There are only so many members in the Luolu Mountain. Who do you want to be responsible for hosting the guests?

Is it the young Sword Immortal Mountain Master of Luolu Mountain? Or Chen Ping'an, the hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall?!

Wei Bo smiled and said: "I am actually just giving Yujiang an extra ten years. If he fails to get a 'B' in the next big exam, my Beiyue Assessment Department will have to settle the old and new accounts together."

"Although I didn't say it so directly, the guy understood it. Anyway, with Yujiang's background, if you really want to be more careful, you can take some of your wealth from the treasury and throw more fairy money into Yujiang and its tributaries.

It's not too difficult to get a B grade. What's more, if you really get a B grade, you can also get a sum of gold and fine copper coins from the Rewards and Punishment Department. This account is easy to calculate, and Yujiang doesn't lose much money."

Zhu Lian joked: "If you don't say anything else, I just want our Lord Tiger to show up in person and block the way. Whether it's good words or hard work, it's just a wine table conversation that no amount of money can buy."

"

Wei Bo glanced at the mountain gate and couldn't help but ask: "Do you think our uncle Chen can guess the twists and turns here?"

Zhu Lian smiled and shook his head and said: "He is a real fool. He would not even think about it if he could not guess."

Wei Bo smiled and nodded, "If you really had that kind of brain, you would have already reached the Jade Pu realm, and your tail wouldn't be able to reach the sky."

After all, Zhu Lian said to his family, "It's okay."

Wei Bo couldn't help but asked again: "I just can't figure it out. What on earth is Chen Lingjun thinking? No matter how stupid he is, he should know the point. Are he really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"

Zhu Lian smiled and said nothing.

The old cook just sat on the steps, put his hands in his sleeves, raised his eyes, and looked into the distance.

There is no one in the vast ravine of Yun Sheng, so I searched all the strange peaks to make a draft.

Wei Bo couldn't help laughing when he thought of something, "Guangfu Temple really likes the couplet sent by Luopo Mountain, otherwise it wouldn't have been hung in the middle together with the couplet from Xuankong Temple in Zhongtu."

Zhu Lian smiled and said nothing.

In the Zen temple in Aquarius Island, which has just been ranked among the first sects, there is a highly respected Buddhist dragon elephant, who just held an enthronement ceremony not long ago.

Somehow, he managed to find Wei Bo from Piyun Mountain through connections, and then found Luo Po Mountain. Because the matter was in a hurry and could not be delayed, Wei Bo asked Zhu Lian to do it for him and presented him with a pair of couplets.

Zhu Lian originally wanted to send a letter to Xiandu Mountain with a flying sword. Originally, this kind of thing should have been written by the owner of the mountain due to emotion and reason. However, it was really too late in time, so he had to imitate his own master's handwriting, and the master deliberately left one side "

"Chen Ping'an's" private seal was in the bamboo building, and it was meant for Zhu Lian to use it whenever he wanted. After writing the couplet, he printed the private seal and asked Wei Bo to send it to the Buddhist temple together, and the man who had just

The old monk who serves as the abbot has profound Buddhist teachings and has two Zen allusions: Cai Yun and Fang Hu.

Pick the clouds to mend your skin, release the tiger back to the mountain. Follow the wind like a dragon, see your nature and become a Buddha.

Climb the Dharma throne and roar like a lion. A thousand-year-old dark room can be illuminated by a single lamp.

Wei Bo is about to return to Piyun Mountain, and the documents are like mountains and seas, it is no exaggeration.

Unexpectedly, some of Zhu Lian's words made Wei Bo not only stop, but also sit on the steps.

"Some people like to go back and flip through books when they read."

Zhu Lian put his hands on his chin, squinted his eyes and smiled, and said softly: "Chen Lingjun is the same, and so is you Wei Bo. It's just that the content you read is different."

"And when we are selecting and looking through the pages of old books, we all like to see the most beautiful words."

"So even if time has passed and things have really changed and people have changed, what does it matter?"

At dusk, the vast mountains are far away, with drizzle, gentle breeze and light clouds.

The peaks of my house are so thin that they come out of the clouds.

After completely moving out of the Longquan Sword Sect in Chuzhou, Xu Xiaoqiao took his two new direct disciples on a trip, while Xie Ling practiced in seclusion.

So much so that the new sect leader Liu Xianyang and Miss Yu rarely made a trip back to the sect, only to find senior brother Dong Gu teaching swordsmanship to a group of subsequent disciples.

Among the group of registered disciples who came to the mountain a little later than Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao, the previous sect leader did not leave behind those few Sword Immortal embryos. Instead, those who actually became Ruan Qiong's disciples were a few with relatively poor qualifications. Among them were

The two remnants of Lu's prisoners, who were just young children back then, have now become other people's masters.

Liu Xianyang asked: "Where's Blacksmith Ruan? Why aren't you forging iron on the mountain today? Didn't I send a message with my flying sword before I came to the mountain?"

Dong Gu ignored him.

In the entire Aquarius Continent, this junior brother is probably the only one who dares to call his master Ruan Tiejiang.

The two emperors and their majesties both had great respect for their master. There is no need to talk about Immortal Master Yizhou, except for the master Chen Shanshan who was his neighbor in the past. Do you dare?

Therefore, the current disciples of the Longquan Sword Sect, each and every one of them, admire Ruan Qiong, the founder of the Longquan Sword Sect who has been living in seclusion all year round. This is because they have all heard Xu Xiaoqiao, the elder of the sect, say a few words: "

once

"She said that when Chen Jianxian was a young man in a small town, he used to work in the blacksmith shop built by our sect on the bank of Longxu River. He was considered a part-time worker in the market at the foot of the mountain. In his early years, Chen Jianxian was equally polite and considerate with his master.

, respectfully.

Liu Xianyang coughed and reminded: "Senior Brother Dong, the sect master is asking you something."

Dong Gu said sternly: "As for the sect master, I don't know."

The round-faced girl complained softly: "Senior Brother Dong, how can you act like a sect master? Are you bored if you don't see others?"

Qiangyue didn't use her heartfelt words, but deliberately told Dong Gu.

Tsk tsk, now that I am so sophisticated in worldly matters, not to mention being proficient in everything, I can still count myself as having made a living.

Liu Xianyang complained: "There are just a few people in our sect. Do we have fifty people in total? Isn't it a bit too shabby? I think I had to queue up when I was studying abroad and squatting in a latrine."

Dong Gu chuckled.

According to the promise made back then, Ruan Qiong resigned as the sect leader and was succeeded by Liu Xianyang, the first person from the Longquan Sword Sect to reach the Jade Pu Realm. However, such a major event was just decided at a dinner table, and no celebration was held afterwards, so that now Bao

There were only a few immortals in Pingzhou who knew about this. Only the Dali imperial court sent a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette to personally take people to the Longquan Sword Sect to make up for the congratulations. There were not many people and the weight was not light.

The first thing Liu Xianyang did after becoming the leader of the clan was to be "good at making decisions". He went to Piyun Mountain to find Lord Wei Shan, and used his magical powers to help move several mountains, including Shenxiu Mountain, here.

Patting Dong Gu's shoulder, Liu Xianyang said earnestly: "Senior Brother Dong, you must practice well. It's outrageous that a disciple of my dignified Longquan Sword Sect is just a Nascent Soul."

After that, Liu Xianyang took the round-faced girl to visit the other hills together. The two of them were walking on the mountain road. Liu Xianyang was wearing a cotton-padded jacket like her, with his head lowered and his hands in his hands. Otherwise, why would winter be called cat winter?

The round-faced girl who named herself Yu Qianyue asked: "The establishment of the next sect is such a big thing, why didn't he invite you?"

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "I'm afraid that I will steal his limelight. If I appear on the stage, who will care about Chen Ping'an."

Of course, Chen Pingan had already explained this matter to Liu Xianyang.

Qiangyue rolled her eyes.

Liu Xianyang smiled for no reason: "For the same person, enduring hardship and enjoying happiness are two completely different knowledges."

Qiangyue nodded, "That makes sense."

Liu Xianyang felt a little emotional and stopped to look from a distance, "It's just a false idea of ​​​​a place of heart, moral principles, and material desires competing to be the master."

After getting along for a long time, Qiu Yue almost forgot about this guy. He once studied under the Chen family in Nanbosu Island for many years.
