Although Old Minister Liu was good at talking and was able to play the chess game of Qingluan Kingdom without losing, he naturally would not make fun of his daughter's marriage and refused again.

From then on, the handsome young man came to pester him every other day, and the young lady gradually became thinner and haggard, so haggard that she could hardly walk normally. Only then did Old Minister Liu realize that something was going to happen, and immediately sent someone to the capital to ask for help, but that person turned out to be

The devil beat the wall, and walked back to the Lion Park again and again, but could not get out of the mountain path. Fortunately, a staff member of the Lion Park was well versed in the immortal family affairs, and after a lot of hard planning, he finally managed to spread the turmoil in the Lion Park.

First, an old Taoist deity from Beijing who had a good relationship with Mr. Liu came generously and successfully broke through the obstacles of the mountains and rivers. He successfully entered the lion garden and stayed under the poor girl's embroidery building. He set up an altar and drew talismans in all directions. As a result, the next day

In the Lion Garden, they found this venerable Dragon Gate Immortal tied by his hands and hanging naked on a big tree. After being rescued, the old temple owner was ashamed and said only that the fox demon was too advanced and he was no match for him.

After that, groups of Qi practitioners came to drive away the fox demon. Some were chivalrous people who admired the Liu family tradition, and some came for the three ancestral antiques of Old Minister Liu.

They were all tricked by the fox demon into a miserable state.

So much so that the fox demon openly told Mr. Liu that it would visit the Lion Park once a decade, and the "father-in-law" just invited guests from all over the world to fight with his son-in-law riding a dragon to teach the Lion Park how powerful it was.

As a family, today's misfortune will surely be tomorrow's good news.

Chen Pingan listened silently.

The cardamom girl with some freckles on the tip of her nose is the daughter of the housekeeper of the Lion Park. The girl didn't speak during the whole journey. She was probably just chatting with her father in the pavilion.

Before entering the garden, he glanced at the lamplight talisman on Pei Qian's forehead. Chen Pingan quietly tapped it with his finger. There was no movement on the talisman, which was extremely sensitive to evil spirits.

Chen Ping'an gave up the idea of ​​taking off the talisman, and was not in a relaxed mood. This bold fox demon must have its own unique skills, and maybe it was really a great demon like the Earth Immortal.

There are currently three groups of monks in the Lion Garden, waiting for the fox demon to show up in half a day.

Including Chen Pingan, there are four groups.

Chen Ping'an and the others were moved to the cave by Liu's housekeeper, Lao Zhao, and were arranged to live in the four corners of the Miss Xiu Building in the Lion Garden. In fact, the fox demon came and went without a trace. This superficial arrangement was just to appease people's hearts a little.

On the way to the residence, you can enjoy the pleasant scenery of the Lion Garden, the halls and pavilions, the pavilions, the pavilions and the corridors, the vegetation on the bridge walls, and the plaques and couplets, all of which give people a comfortable feeling of a masterful genius.

If one is from a scholarly family and is rich and noble, walking in this private garden, even if he does not interact with other people, does not play chess, calligraphy, painting, drink or drink tea, can still be so pleasing to the eye.

There is not a house full of gold and jade as common people imagine, let alone a few gold poles and a few silver stools at home.

The prime minister's porter is an official of the seventh rank, and there are no dogs barking in front of the houses of noble families.

If we don't talk about power and power, but only talk about family tradition, some of the suddenly wealthy families cannot compare to the real hairpin family.

The four of Chen Ping'an live in an elegant private courtyard. In fact, the location is past the flower courtyard and only a hundred steps away from the embroidery building. It is inconsistent with the customs and etiquette. Some places in Aquarius Island where Neo-Confucianism is dominant, will be extremely particular about women.

He never goes out of the door, and he has the so-called good family relationship, but now the life of the young girl is in danger, and the father, Mr. Liu, is not a pedantic scholar, so he naturally does not care about these things.

Mr. Liu has three sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter has married a well-matched man from a well-matched family. In the first month of the year, she and her husband went back to their parents' home. Without thinking, they couldn't leave and they stayed in the Lion Garden. The other children were also in such a bleak situation.

The eldest son, as a county official near the Hebo Temple, escaped the disaster by not going home for the New Year. After the incident, the letter sent by Old Minister Liu after the incident included a letter from home, with strict wording, forbidding the eldest son to return.

In the Lion Park, private affairs must never be used at the expense of public affairs.

The second son of Mr. Liu was the most pitiful. He went out for a trip and was already lame when he came back.

Said to be Liu Lao Shilang, in fact Liu Jingting is not too old. He is just a child prodigy. He went very smoothly in the imperial examination. He became the number one scholar in high school at the age of 18, and he has been in the official career for thirty years. Among them, he served as a minister in the Ministry of Rites for twelve years.

position, so after he resigned before the age of fifty and retired, everyone in the government and the public liked to call him Lao Shilang Liu.

As soon as Chen Pingan put down his luggage, Mr. Liu came to the door in person. He was an elegant old man with a strong sense of culture. Although the family suffered a great disaster, Liu Jingting still looked calm. When talking to Chen Pingan, he was chatting and laughing happily, not with a forced smile.

The look on his face was just the worry and fatigue between the old man's brows and eyes, which made Chen Ping'an feel better. He had both the calmness of being the head of the family and the sincere feelings of a father.

After sending Liu Jingting outside the courtyard gate, the old servant smiled and asked Chen Pingan to walk more in the Lion Garden.

Back in the yard, Pei Qian was copying books in the house, with the talisman on his head, and he didn't even take it off even if he was going to sleep.

Shi Rou was a little helpless. It turned out that the courtyard was not big, and there were only three rooms for people to live in. The housekeeper of the Lion Park thought that it would not be rude to accommodate two elderly servants into one room.

Who knew that there was a withered female ghost living in the remains of "Du Mao"? Shi Rou and Zhu Lian, an old woman, were asked to live in a room. Shi Rou would rather stay in the yard all night until dawn every night. Anyway, as a ghost, she could not sleep or not.

Sleeping will not harm your soul and vitality.

It's just that Chen Ping'an said he wanted her to live in the main house, so he came to live with Zhu Lian.

Shi Rou hesitated for a moment, nodded in agreement, and said thank you.

Zhu Lian had a regretful expression on his face, which made Shi Rou's heart turn upside down.

Zhu Lian turned to look outside the courtyard door. Chen Pingan nodded to him. Zhu Lian stood up and opened the door. Six people came from a distance. They should be two groups of Qi practitioners who came to the Lion Garden to slay demons.

A couple of monks, the man looks older, around forty years old, and the woman is relatively younger, around thirty years old, they should be in the cave realm. The man is carrying a long sword with a shark skin sheath. This is also a monk.

As usual, if a Qi practitioner travels with a sword behind his back, there will be an invisible intimidation effect. What if he is a sword cultivator?

The woman in palace clothes looks like a middle-aged woman, but her skin is better than snow, which gives her a sense of natural beauty.

The remaining four people, some old and some young, looked at their positions. They were led by a young man with a beautiful face, who was actually a pure martial artist. The other three were serious Qi practitioners. The old man in black squatted on his shoulders.

There is a smart little raccoon with bright red hair, and a long snake as green as a bamboo leaf is wrapped around the arm of the tall young man. Behind the young man is a beautiful girl, like a personal maid.

Zhu Lian led them into the courtyard and greeted them politely in Baopingzhou Yayan.

The couple are from the Yunxiao Kingdom and come from a sect on a mountain.

The young man's surname was Dugu, and he came from a large dynasty in the middle of Aquarius Continent. They were a group of four, divided into master and servant and master and apprentice. They were close friends who met on the road. Together they dealt with a group of people who occupied the mountains and became kings, causing harm to all directions.

The demons are evil. Because of this huge debate on Buddhism and Taoism, the two parties traveled together to the Qingluan Kingdom.

The young master said that there was another one who lived alone in the northeast corner. She was a middle-aged lady wearing a sword. Baopingzhou was too arrogant to speak and had a withdrawn temperament, so she couldn't get her to come here to visit her colleagues.

people.

Chen Pingan saw him off again to the gate of the hospital.

After returning to the yard, I thought of the woman wearing a crown with a sword, and said to myself: "It must not be such a coincidence."

Zhu Lian asked curiously: "Is there an explanation?"

Chen Pingan nodded, "I once visited a place called Shidaofang on the upside-down mountain south of Posu Island."

Dao Laoer has a line of Taoist priests who all use Dharma swords and are called Shidaofang Taoist priests.

He was once very famous in the Middle-earth Divine Continent, but later he gradually faded out of sight due to the same fate as the mysterious knife dealer of the Moh family.

Shi Rou remained indifferent.

After Chen Ping'an noticed this detail, he knew that the Taoist priest Shi Daofang was indeed not well-known in Aquarius Continent.

The reason is very simple, and it's ridiculous to say that all the Taoists of this lineage of Fa Dao have eyes above their heads. Not only are they highly cultivated, they are extremely tyrannical, and they also have extremely bad tempers.

I don’t like this small place like Aquarius Island at all.

Chen Pingan was on the wall of the Master Sword Room when he saw someone posting a reward list to kill Song Changjing, the king of the Great Li Domain. The reason was that a small place like Aquarius Continent was not qualified to have a ten-level warrior.

, Killing counts, so as not to be an eyesore and disgusting person. In addition, the national master Cui Han and the ranger Xu Ruo have announced the amount of the reward on the wall. However, the sword fairy Xu Ruo did it because he had an infatuated woman, and because of his love

Hatred, as for Cui Chan, was because he was too notorious.

After Chen Pingan told the rumor about the Daofang Taoist master.

Shi Rou's face finally changed slightly.

When Zhu Lian saw Chen Ping'an looking at him with a smile, he hurriedly vowed: "Don't worry, young master! No matter how crazy I am, no matter how ignorant I am, I will not provoke a female champion from other continents who may be the master swordsman. Besides,

If she is an attractive woman, Zhu Lian will not be willing to destroy the flowers with his own hands. He will go to the Lion Garden to pick flowers and break willows for her before it is too late. Alas, after saying this, the old slave is really curious.

How is the beauty of the crown? Although Miss Shi Rou must have been a peerless beauty during her lifetime, facing Du Lao'er's skin every day, even if I don't judge people by their appearance, I am really a little... tired of it."

Zhu Lian said in annoyance: "It seems that the old slave is still not mature enough and can't see through the superficial appearance."

The rickety old man turned his head and apologized to Shi Rou: "Miss Shi Rou, please don't worry. I think I have such a vulgar vision. I have to change it. If you don't mind, I, Zhu Lian, will live in the same room with you tonight." , exercise your state of mind! It’s impossible to say that you have a sudden enlightenment overnight and become a Buddha immediately after learning from Zen Buddhism. From now on, when I see you again, you will always be moving and beautiful..."

Chen Ping'an coughed twice, took off the wine bottle and prepared to drink.

Shi Rou's face was as frosty as she turned around and went to the main room, slamming the door.

Chen Pingan chuckled and asked, "When will you let her go?"

Zhu Lian said solemnly, "Young master, I don't know. This is also the journey of cultivating the mind of the romantics of our generation."

As he spoke, Chen Pingan shook the sword gourd.

Zhu Lian immediately understood.

Squatting on the wall was a handsome young man in a black robe, clapping his hands and saying, "Okay, okay, that's so true to my heart. I never thought that you, an old man with a good fist, would be an even better person!"

Chen Pingan raised his head and asked: "There are differences between gods and immortals, monsters do not offend, birds have their own paths, rats have their own paths, can't everyone go their own way?"

The handsome young man sat on the wall with his legs hanging on the wall, one to the left and one to the right. He lightly touched the white wall with his back heels and said with a smile: "If the well water does not offend the river water, everyone will live in peace. That's the truth." , but I want to drink the well water and stir the river water at the same time, what can you do to me?"

Suddenly, a flash of snow-white light flashed from the neck of the young man in black robe.

The head fell from the wall.

Just not a drop of blood.

The figure of the handsome young man who moved his head disappeared, and turned out to be a mysterious and mysterious illusion. In addition, there was a black fox fur as thin as a hair, floating in the air.

The fox demon's angry words echoed in the courtyard, "The ugly woman has such a handsome swordsmanship! Just wait, one night I will cover your eyes with a cloth, blow out the light, and let you learn my crotch swordsmanship!"

On the other side of the roof, there was a female Taoist priest with an expressionless face, holding a bright long sword, standing on the tip of the eaves, and slowly sheathed the sword.

Chen Pingan and Zhu Lian looked at each other.

She is truly a master swordswoman.
