Sword of Coming

The prosperous County City in the north of Yellow Court Country, in the eyes of the carefree little girl, is just lively. There are so many hometowns and small towns that can’t be compared.

But in the eyes of old scholars who have seen the mountains and seas, they will of course see farther and more imaginary. They may have seen the bleak scene of the iron ride south and the gunpowder. Those bustling happy laughter and cheerful voices will become the tears of the future. The root cause of the heart and lungs is those ragged roadside beggars. The pain and suffering they will suffer in the future will be lighter and lighter. As for those rascals, they are more likely to jump up in troubled times, maybe even. Will become the official upstart and generals of Yellow Court Country.

It’s just that the old scholar has gone through the vicissitudes of life, and naturally will not show this emotion on his face, so as not to spoil the good shopping pleasure of the teenager and little girl.

The old man took them 7 turns and 8 turns all the way to find an old bookstore. He bought a few books for two people at his own expense. The old man in the shop was an old scholar who was unsatisfactory in the imperial examination. He didn’t take it seriously when he met him. Such as the poor old scholar of Xuanhe, it is considered a heroic cherishment. In addition, I am subdued by the academic morality of the old scholar. The book money of 2 2 silver taels and 10 silver taels are counted. After the old scholar goes out, look. Chen Ping and Li Baoping, who were full of admiration, said with a smile: “Well, reading is useful, right? I have helped us earn more than 10 dollars today. So, there is a golden house in the book… “

Speaking of this, the old scholar lowered his voice and said mysteriously: “Don’t tell me, there is a land to the south, of course not to the south of your Aquarius Continent, the Chen Clan family, there is one who is the most uncomfortable with me. Old-fashioned. When he was young, he read day after day and night after night. About several decades later, he was very sincere. One day he really read a golden house and a Yan Ruyu from the book.”

Chen Ping widened his eyes and swallowed, “How big is that golden house?”

Li Baoping asked curiously: “That Yan Ruyu, how beautiful is that?”

The old scholar laughed heartily and pointed his finger at the two children, “I will have the opportunity to see with my own eyes in the future. I won’t tell you that hearing is frustrating, but seeing is believing. There are beautiful mountains, rivers, and beautiful scenery. There are descriptions in the books. , Can’t be compared to earn money by yourself.”

Li Baoping suddenly asked, “Literary Saint Mister, why did you buy those books for me Little Master-uncle? It’s really superficial. Even Lin Shouyi and I can teach. Isn’t it a waste of money?”

The old scholar converged with a smile, and said solemnly: “It’s different, it’s very different. The most learned books in the world must be the most profound and simple, and the most suitable for educating people. Do you know that these books are the cheapest? Just like Dao. Ancestor’s old man’s 5000 essays are sold so cheaply. Anyone who wants to read it can buy it. Anyone who wants to read it can learn from it.”

Li Baoping ignorantly said: “There are more printing, plus more people buy it, so it’s cheaper.”

old scholar nodded said with a smile: “It’s half right, the truth in the book, if it’s too expensive, who is willing to pay for it? Why not buy food and fill your stomach. The remaining half, then It is those moral saints who are aloof and remote. If they want to teach their own knowledge more widely, and become the orthodox knowledge of a state, a country, or even a continent, and the whole world, how many can be taught by themselves? How many? A wide cast net and imprinted his own academic principles on the book, the threshold is low, and there are more people walking in. The threshold is too high to be able to climb, how many proud disciplines and students can there be in the end? “

Chen Ping is lightly sighed.

The old scholar asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? I think it’s boring? This is not good, the book still needs to be read.”

Chen Ping shook his head and said: “I just think it’s like the old 100 surnamed opening a shop to grab business. At Dragon Riding Alley in my hometown, I have two shops that my friends take care of. I don’t know if it is a loss or a profit.”

The old scholar seemed to think of a little old sesame thing, a little sigh, and waved his hand, “Go, take you to drink, if Chen Ping is really greedy, you can drink a little, Baoping is too young to drink.”

It’s still early, and many restaurants have not yet opened for business. Fortunately, the old scholar found a restaurant on the corner of a street. It was dirty and greasy. Fortunately, three people would not pay attention to this. If Cui Chan Yu Lu Xie Xie three were present, I am afraid that I’m going to frown. I have a high vision, a cleanliness, and a pampered since childhood. It is estimated that I will never drink on such occasions in my life.

The old man ordered a catty of loose wine and a plate of salted peanuts. Chen Ping still insisted that martial practitioners should not drink. Li Baoping actually wanted to drink, but with Little Master-uncle by his side, he just stared greedily wherever he dared to make this request. Drinking with old scholar.

I have been with Chen Ping for so long, from Li Baoping to Lin Shouyi and Li Huai. I have been fascinated all the way. I know what I can do and what I can’t do. Li Baoping sometimes feels that Little Master-uncle. It’s too serious, but after taking a look at the beautiful little bookcase and thick soft straw sandals, I won’t say much.

Lin Shouyi has become a Divine Immortal on the mountain and has lofty ambitions. He is not without thoughts about Chen Ping, but standing high and looking far away, he feels that the trivial skin under his nose is not worth his distraction, so he never said anything.

As for what Li Huai is most willing to say and so on, it’s a pity that most of them are unreasonable. Before Chen Ping can say anything, they have been severely suppressed by Li Baoping, so there has never been irreconcilable differences in this way of studying. With a delicate balance, Zhu He Zhu Lu and his daughter left afterwards. Outside the Ye Fu Mountain Pass, Cui Chan led two people into the team, making the previous four people more and more similar to the enemy, but the relationship became closer.

When the old scholar drank the wine, he got a little bit on his head after only half a catty. It was probably a touch of the scene, and he did not deliberately use Magical Powers. It was rare to be so relaxed, so he was so relieved by drinking. The old man looked around all around and whispered: “I There was a friend who had known since he was a child. He was poor at home and dropped out of school. Later, he opened a wine shop, a small shop of almost this size. From 18 years old, he married a wife and had children until he died at the age of 65. He opened a restaurant for nearly 40 years. The wine shop has sold wine for nearly 40 years.”

The old scholar shook the wine bowl gently, “As long as I have spare money in my pocket, as long as I want to drink, I like to buy wine from him, no matter how far away, I will definitely go.”

The old scholar laughed, a little sad, “But one day, the shop closed. I asked the neighbors in the neighborhood to find out that my friend was dead. Since the original shop was closed, I had to buy wine elsewhere, and I knew that he sold it. My kind of wine is more expensive than others.”

Li Baoping said angrily: “Lord Literary Saint, you treat others as friends, but they don’t seem to treat you as friends.”

Chen Ping didn’t say anything.

The old man took a sip of wine, “But after many more years, I learned that the wine he sold to me was brewed by him personally going up the mountain to collect medicine. Regardless of the cost, he used the best things and sold it at a loss. Up.”

Li Baoping opened her mouth wide, and the little girl was suddenly full of guilt.

The old man twisted a grain of peanuts, put it in his mouth and chewed it all, “In 40 years, I was a shabby scholar, and finally got the fame as a scholar. After that… I also gained some ability and fame. That friend every time When I saw me, I would only persuade me to drink. He never mentioned his children’s schooling, or his wife’s family, just persuading me to drink, every time he sits in your place in Little Baoping , Sit opposite, the farthest away from me, but you can look at me as soon as you look up, smiling silly every time.”

Li Baoping thought for a while and left his place silently, sitting opposite Chen Ping, grinning.

Chen Ping made a face at her.

The old scholar slowly said: “Later, I learned that his children had either become the Huangzi high ranking official of the local Imperial Court, bringing calamity to the country and the people, or they had become a fate at a young age. Madam, he beats and kills concubines at every turn. His wife’s family suddenly became rich and wealthy. He became a family member of the county, and the whole family was very bad. All bad things were done, killing a lot of innocent people.”

The old scholar stared blankly at the empty seat opposite, “But you just stayed at that small wine shop, guarding a shabby shop, brewing wine year after year, and waiting until you die of old age.”

Li Baoping opened his mouth wide again, his face full of incredible.

The old scholar regained his gaze, eating salted peanuts with bad wine, and said to Chen Ping: “In the future, you should practice martial arts and swords, don’t be reasonable in everything, especially don’t follow the principles in the book, be flexible, or else You will be very tired. In the end, you will be the only one beside you, and you will have no friends. Since ancient times, Sage, the higher the god, is it because of setting an example and doing less unreasonable things?”

The old scholar extend the hand refers to sliding a line on the table, and finally straightening the arm, as if wanting to draw a road outside the table, “You think, some roads, you can walk alone for a year, ten What about the year? 100 years, 1000 years? But the problem is here. Some people just want to go on, so what should they do? Then you must do the right things in the right years. Don’t be too old-fashioned. After that, when Great Dao walks alone in the future, he will not regret it. On the contrary, he will feel…”

The old scholar was really drunk, stretched out his thumb and pointed at himself, “I’m so motherfucker awesome!”

After saying this bold and arrogant word, with a bang, the old scholar’s head fell forward and knocked his head heavily on the table.

The teenager settled the bill with the shopkeeper, and walked out carrying the old scholar.

little girl is cheering.

It turns out that Lord Literary Saint is always drunk, and can talk about drinking.

“Chen Ping! You are not a vain boy, you must drink, drink well!”

“Little Baoping, 10000000. Remember, you must cherish Chen Ping, a silly and good person. Don’t think that he is unkind just because he has done too well and right. Instead, you will get farther and farther away from him, otherwise you will regret it sooner or later. Yes, Chen Ping will also become the second Little Qi. When the accident happened, no one knew at all, or they knew, and they didn’t have the guts to help. How miserable…”

“Little Ping, we are reasonable, not to make ourselves wronged, but to accumulate slowly. If there is a day when you suddenly feel that the whole world is unreasonable, you have the confidence and heart to talk loudly to this World Say,’You are all wrong!'”

The old man slapped the young man’s head vigorously while he was soaking in alcohol.

Chen Ping, carrying an old scholar, had a bitter face, and had to desperately nodded.

The old scholar belched his wine, straightened his neck, and seemed to be looking for the little girl in the green bamboo box. Li Baoping hurriedly jumped and said, “I am here!”

The old scholar oh oh two times, and then fiercely slapped Chen Ping’s head again, “Little Ping, I ask you, the more you study in the future, the more the truth in the book makes sense, but if one day , The whole…or half of the Scholar of Grand Virtue World began to accuse Little Baoping, calling her shameless, and even like her Little Master-uncle, what should you do?”

The little girl didn’t take it seriously, panting with rage said: “I like Little Master-uncle and it’s wrong, how do these people read books!”

The teenager has been living hard to survive at the bottom of the market since he was young, so if Chen Ping wants to go further and know more about nasty things, he without the slightest hesitation said: “If there is such a day, they will scold Baoping. , Have to ask me about Chen Ping’s fist first.”

Chen Ping turned to the little girl and said with a smile: “In addition to fists, Little Master-uncle will have swords in the future, so if there is one day, must tell Little Master-uncle that Little Master-uncle will rush even if it is far away. Come to protect you!”

The old man was drunk and said: “Then if the little girl thinks that you can’t beat those people, for fear of you being injured, and deliberately not calling you, Chen Ping only knows the pitiful ending afterwards, what should you do? This is the end, is it possible that you catch those Scholars and kill them?”

Chen Ping stopped and looked at the little girl, “Baoping, are you thinking that Little Master-uncle will kill for you afterwards, be scolded to death by someone, or dignified beforehand, and we are facing each other. Those bad guys, even if they die, they die with confidence without leaving any regrets?”

The little girl panicked, “Little Master-uncle, it sounds like it’s still the choice behind, a little better?”

The old man laughed heartily, “It’s not as miserable as you think, Scholar still wants to be shameless, life and death will not be enough, but it will be a bit bumpy that’s all.”

The old scholar finally tsk tsk said: “In the first order, the kid has used it so quickly, and he can apply what he has learned. It is amazing.”

Chen Ping said with a smile: “Old Mister, if you scare us, just drink and pretend to be drunk in order not to pay, is it a bit too much?”

The old scholar’s head tilted for an instant, and his snoring sound was thunderous.

Li Baoping still had some lingering fears and grabbed Chen Ping’s sleeve.

Chen Ping cracking a joke said: “What are you afraid of? In the future, you will study hard and try to be reasonable and beat them. If this is not enough, Little Master-uncle will work harder to practice fist and sword from today, when the time comes Little Master-uncle controlling sword flying, shovel and come to you from outside the ten thousand li, you think, everyone looks up, staring at your Little Master-uncle, just like we saw at the time Snow Wind Temple Wei Jin is almost the same. When the time comes, you just tell people, this is my Little Master-uncle. Oh, isn’t it handsome? Isn’t it great?”

The little girl was nodded hard, laughed, and jumped up, “Wow, handsome!”
