At the foot of Mount Fanke, the inn was previously destroyed by a knife, and Wu Peixian was now in a small makeshift bamboo building.
Sitting on the third floor with his eyes closed and concentrating, the bright sunshine was pouring in, and the ancient sword was lying across his knees. Next to him sat a very beautiful woman, with a phoenix tail dotted between her eyebrows, and a temperament far beyond that of ordinary people.
Beauty Review No. 12: With such a fragrant and beautiful figure, her true identity is that the Queen Empress secretly inserted her as a chess piece next to Wu Peixian.
She has been lying dormant for these years, sending back important information again and again, especially the investigation of the military commanders under Wu Peixian, which shows how great her achievements are.
Originally, she was supposed to replace Taozhi and become one of the four maids beside His Highness the Crown Prince. It's just that she took the initiative to infiltrate Wu Peixian's side, just to avenge her father's murder.
Only she knows that Wu Peixian is not really lecherous. The reason why she can stay with him is because she looks like his wife who died of illness, that's all.
Outside the bamboo house, a man dressed in snow-white lay comfortably on a boulder, opening his eyes and looking directly at the sun.
He was thinking about the timid and weak girl again.
If the love between Guiliu and Wang Sizhi is that of a wealthy family, then the love between him and Princess Nanzhao is that of Xiaojiabiyu. The love affairs of wealthy people involve the family, so even if it is lively and glorious, freedom is rare, and the marriage between the criminal Wang family and the emperor Gui family will definitely arouse the criticism of the world. Although Xiaojiabiyu's love seems to be unknown and does not attract the attention of many people in the world like the former, it is free and unrestrained.
This Boxing Immortal, who was actually extremely cold-tempered, would never show any mercy when killing someone in the past. Even if a woman knelt down to beg for mercy while holding her child, or even if an eighty-year-old woman held her head and cried, she would always kill him with one punch. It wasn't until he met the girl with the soft almond eyes that he imitated her and became much gentler, as if by subtle influence. Nowadays, there is a popular saying in the world, "Fistes have fluttering white clothes." It not only means that he likes to wear a white suit and has superb boxing skills, but also focuses on the word "piaopiao", and is as elegant and gentle as a gentleman. That year, there was a natural disaster in Jiangnan Province. Heavy rains fell continuously for a whole month. The water level was several feet above the ground. Many people were drowned because there was no harvest, and a huge famine was triggered afterwards. If it weren't for a boxing master who punched the rain away with one punch after another, I'm afraid more people would have died in Jiangnan Dao. The grandmaster in white stood in the heavy rain and boxed for a whole month. In the end, his strength was exhausted and he almost died. When he appeared in the eyes of the world again, he was ranked twelfth in the Dajing Dynasty's martial arts review. There were only four words in the review, but everyone's heart was swayed. It was the four words "White Clothes Boxing Immortal". There is a small temple in Jiangnan Road to this day. There are no ghosts or gods worshiped in it. There is only a statue of a man punching in a heavy rain. It was built for Yao Tiao.
In the first half of his life, he practiced boxing to kill people and considered himself to be hard-hearted. In the second half of his life, it didn't matter to him whether he was a boxing immortal in white or a martial arts master. His world was so small that it could only accommodate her.
When Xie Guanzhao found the dumpling stall, he asked him an interesting question.
what is love?
The answer given by Yao Tiao is very interesting.
Love is a bowl of dumplings.
Some people like to eat the skin, and some people like to eat the filling.
But no matter what, as long as you are happy eating, that's fine.
For this reason, Xie Guanzhao, who was dull by nature and not proficient in anything except kendo, actually asked Wu Peixian to solve his doubts.
However, Wu Peixian did not answer him, but said this to himself.
"I got up and slapped my hands to seal the title, but I missed the word "Yuanyang".
"The world is safe and sound, and I will live up to the Tathagata and I will never let you down."
"The fermented wine is gone, and the flowers are still hanging on."
Xie Guanzhao was even more confused after hearing this, and went back to read the three poems to Yao Tiao intact. As a result, Yao Tiao laughed loudly and said: "You, you are really good." Seven orifices are open to six, but none is clear. To ruin such a good poem is to play the piano to a bull."
But Yao Tiao is not completely making fun of Xie Guanzhao, because he knows that the third kind of love Wu Peixian talks about is exactly himself.
It's a pity that there are flaws in the ointment. But compared to the first two, or compared to the prince's love, that is simply the greatest blessing in the world.
In the bamboo house, the woman made tea with bare hands, then turned sideways to the man, holding the tea cup with both hands, and said nothing. Wu Peixian opened her eyes and took the tea cup. Suddenly her hands trembled and she almost lost her grip, but she smiled slightly the next second.
The woman was silent on the surface and her pretty face was calm, but her heart was already in turmoil. I have followed him for so many years, and I have never seen his expression of shock and shock just now. He could even barely hold the tea cup. What happened in that moment just now?
Yao Tiao's extremely tense body gradually relaxed, and his fisting intention, which had reached its peak state in an instant, slowly dissipated.
At that moment, Xie Guanzhao almost used all his strength to draw the sword.
At this time, a young Taoist priest appeared without any warning, lightly knocked the lotus crown on his head, and said with a smile: "Oh, it was so dangerous, we finally caught up."
He looked at the man in white lying on the boulder, as if greeting an old friend, "Yao Tiao, long time no see."
Xie Guanzhao looked at the Lotus Crown Taoist with complicated eyes.
At that moment, a huge pressure hit this small world. It is no exaggeration to say that it was like the entire Fanke Mountain was pressing down heavily, with the intention of destruction.
That's why I almost had to contribute twelve points.
Yao Tiao also instantly reached the peak of his boxing intention.
But in just one thought, no, without even reacting, the terrifying and huge pressure disappeared, and then the Lotus Crown Taoist ranked seventh in the martial arts review appeared without any warning.
At that moment, life or death was completely out of your control.
Is this the realm of crossing the chasm?
In Fanke Mountain, in a secluded Zen room, the old abbot sighed heavily, turned to a white-haired man and said, "It failed. Now that he has appeared, I can't take action."
Guiliu nodded, "If Wu Peixian died so easily, I would be unwilling to carry Wang Sizhi's body up the mountain, watching Chen Luyao lose her soul bit by bit, almost being killed by an immortal in Greenbelt City, and in Xinghua Town He was intercepted and killed by Xie She and Yu Jiaxin, and almost beaten to death by a drunkard in Qingqian City, all thanks to him. I want to cut off his head with my own hands, and then go to apologize to Chen Luyao's parents and go see My mother, please plead for Jin Zhi."
Guiliu's face was calm, as if he had said something ordinary.
But the more this happened, the more frightened the old abbot became.
This man now looks like a murderous god every moment.
The hostility is so severe that I have never seen it in nearly four decades of my life.
If this continues, plus the luck of half of the blessed Buddhist lands, will he become a Buddha just like the ghost Bodhisattva who walked barefoot on the Mountain of Skeletons?
The old abbot sighed worriedly, turned around and entered the house.
In the Bamboo House at the foot of the mountain, Taoist Lotus Crown stood at the door and shouted with a smile: "Can you come in?"
A faint voice came from the top floor, "It's okay."
Lotus Crown Taoist smiled, stepped over the threshold, and appeared on the third floor of the bamboo building.
At the beginning of my travels in the past, I passed by Jiangnan Road and had a lot of drinks with the censor of Jiangnan Road who had the golden seal and purple award, so it was a reunion of drinking buddies.
Taoist Lotus Crown glanced at the woman who was sitting quietly with her head lowered and her eyebrows lowered, and said with a smile: "With the phoenix tail between the eyebrows and the body of a born sword embryo, with such talent, it is very possible to join the ranks of great masters and great monks. Isn't it just to keep it for your eyes?" What a pity."
Wu Peixian said calmly: "She became a great master and a great monk, and I will be the one who dies."
The woman's hands on her legs trembled imperceptibly.
Lotus Crown Taoist laughed it off, clasped his hands behind his head, and said proudly: "Is this poor Taoist here in time?"
Wu Peixian smiled for the first time and said: "It came just in time, I almost died."
"I'm not your chess piece, so you are so sure that I will come? What if I didn't come? Then the chess game that you and the giant of the Yin and Yang family have painstakingly planned for more than ten years, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
"My gambling luck has always been very good." Wu Peixian stood up, walked slowly to the window, looked at the mist-shrouded Fanke Mountain in the distance, and said softly: "It's you, you bet on whether the abbot of Fanke Mountain will take action. Now I can tell you clearly that with the powerful blow he just made that affected the fate of Buddhism, he would never be able to take action. If you insist on making a bet, I can make a bold guess. You will be hunted down by the Queen, even if you Keep the clone to sleep in the Lotus Cave as a backup, but if the real body is killed, it will also ruin your path to the eighth realm. Your Lotus Cave will fall into the world in a few decades, and the avenues of hundreds of thousands of monks will be ruined. , you will indeed be able to survive when you become a useless person, because we, the Queen, will not survive that time."
The woman listened quietly, her nails digging into her flesh.
Taoist Lotus Crown looked calm, "If I have the chance to reach the eighth realm, can I prevent the cave from sinking into the human world?"
"Maybe there will be a chance." Wu Peixian said calmly.
"It's like I didn't say anything and left." Taoist Lotus Crown turned and left, suddenly stopped, and said softly: "I forgot to tell you that we have an eighth-level monk in Lotus Cave, so I was very nervous before. I was worried that I might offend the Queen in the capital, but now, I am not afraid at all."
Wu Peixian smiled and said, "That's very good."
After walking out of the bamboo building, Taoist Lotus Crown glanced at the sun. It was only noon, so why not go to Shuanghua City to have a good look at the local customs and customs here.
Suddenly, with a sudden thought, Master Lotus Crown transformed into a young girl. He took out a bronze mirror from nowhere, as if admiring himself, and said sincerely: "This is so beautiful."
A girl wearing a goose-yellow dress and a green ponytail entered the city full of energy and cheerful steps.
Soon a group of well-dressed and angry aristocrats were gathered. The leading dandy whistled loudly and said with a frivolous smile: "Which little girl is so pretty?"
The Lotus Crown Taoist subconsciously wanted to say: "I am a poor Taoist." He quickly closed his mouth, deliberately twisted his hands behind his back, stepped on his embroidered shoes and took a few steps back. His almond-shaped eyes were soft and timid, and he kept his head lowered, feeling uneasy.
"My father, the Qipin County Magistrate, you... you..."
The children of the aristocratic family looked at each other, and the next second, they burst into deafening laughter.
"You, what are you laughing at? Don't laugh!"
Her girlish little face turned red and she stamped her feet fiercely.
The arrogant dandy in the lead even broke out in laughter. He paused for a while, then narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Come home with me and be my bed-warming maid."
The girl's soft almond-shaped eyes widened, her face full of bewilderment, and she shook her head desperately.
"Do you think this young master is begging you?"
Suddenly there was a sharp and ear-piercing sonic boom, and a riding crop inlaid with gold came over.
The girl didn't hide, she just wanted to take action.
Suddenly a lazy voice came from behind, "You're kicking your nose in the face, right?"
The breeze blew by, and all the dandy boys fell heavily from their horses. As for the dandy boy who used the whip, it was even worse. He grabbed the ground with his head, and blood spurted out.
Before the girl could react, the man behind him grabbed her wrist and lifted her up high!
Like an immortal controlling the wind.
An Anan landed safely in a secluded alley. The girl's eyes widened because he saw clearly the clothes of the person in front of him. He was also a Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest still held the girl's hand, lovingly, with anticipation in his eyes, "How about I show you the girl's palm, don't worry, it's free, and you don't charge a penny."
The girl immediately blushed and whispered, "This...isn't good."
The Taoist priest was a little anxious, "What's wrong? Don't girls want to see their good fortune? Doesn't the girl not care whether she marries a pig, a dog, or a happy man?"
"Then...okay." The girl blushed.
The Taoist priest couldn't wait to take the girl's white and tender hand, and couldn't help but secretly admired it: "It's soft and tender, what a good hand."
"Grandmaster?"
"Um?"
"Why do you keep touching the back of my hand when reading palmistry?" the girl asked doubtfully.
The Taoist priest coughed in embarrassment, turned over the girl's wrist, and looked at her carefully, revealing a very realistic look of astonishment.
"This is it! This is it!"
The girl couldn't wait to urge: "What is it? Tell me quickly."
The Taoist priest suddenly raised his head, with tears filling his eyes, "You and that prince have the same horoscopes, so you are destined to be a perfect match!"
"Girl, look at how well your hands are taken care of. There are no calluses at all. You must be the daughter of a wealthy family. In this way, for the sake of saving the girl, why don't the girl give a few taels of silver to the poor man? I told the girl that Pindao has been hungry for several days and nights, and if he continues like this, he will starve to death."
"But this?"
The girl looked suspiciously at the half-eaten chicken drumstick in the white bowl at the Taoist's feet.
The Taoist priest hurriedly said: "Girl, please don't misunderstand me. This half chicken leg was... given to me by an old yellow dog. It must have been because I felt so pitiful for me. Please do me a favor. Otherwise, please do me a favor." Tao can just have a meal, but Pindao is really hungry."
The girl tilted her head slightly, thought for a while, then turned to look at the Taoist priest, "What do you want to eat?"
The Taoist priest couldn't wait to rub his palms, his eyes gleaming, "There is a kind of rice called flower wine."
With a bang, a crisp slap sounded in the alley.
The girl dropped a few taels of silver and left the alley with satisfaction, not forgetting to wave to the stunned figure.
Little did he know that there was a little child with purple-gold eyes, looking down at the cauldron of national destiny and seeing the scene in front of him.
He laughed so hard that he burst into tears.
