There were wine glasses in the house, and there were a few lightly read and brand new books on the table, including Confucian sages books, Taoist classics, and people s notes.There was great excitement, and some graceful female monks had quietly turned on the Mirror Flowers and Water Moon.
You are on the border between the two countries. The official road is within the boundaries of the temple, and there are many merchants passing by.of gods. Before going to the mountain temple in the northern border of Shushui Kingdom, Chen Ping an hurried on the wind and quietly fell to the ground.
In just a few years, the sinister and sinister nature of people s hearts can be seen at a glance. So when the world was at peace, the old emperor of the Yu family took the prince and a group of pillars of the country to clean up the old mountains and rivers as a matter of course, but he did not forget to issue several heartbreaking edicts.
As for walking in the world , it s nothing to have a few aliases, it s the same as a Taoist cultivator using blind tricks to go down the mountain to play in the world.The biggest protector in the world, after all, It s every monk himself. Not only do they protect the most roads, but they also protect them for the longest time.
On the top of the mountain, there is a hill platform, carved out of an elephant chessboard, with thirty two chess pieces, as big as stone piers, weighing a thousand kilograms.The Samadhi True Fire suddenly shrank to ten feet. tied up Chen Ping an s entire knife holding arm. The next moment, Han Yushu s mind moved slightly, and the scene of a fire dragon walking through the water emerged.
How can it be so It s not worthy of its name. Chunqing didn t mind the idea of half a bamboo sea cave and large and small green sacred mountains.However, it generally followed a rule that only increased but never decreased. There was only one exception, that is, after the end of the March 4th War, because the statue of Wen Sheng was moved out of the Chinese Confucian Temple and lost its status as a companion, many academy inscriptions were revoked.
The news was received from the summer palace, but Chen Ping an did not show up at that time. After sitting down, Chen Pingan said with a smile The first time I saw a certain landscape travel book in a foreign land, my first thought was that Mr.Could it be that Master Sheng received my flying sword message Without waiting for Chen Ping an s reply, he didn t see the young master coming towards him vigorously.
She is good at refining all kinds of clouds in the world, and she is said to be good friends with Li Yu, the Yuanjun of Taixia in Luzhou, Beiju.The town s folk customs are simple and honest, and it is indeed well deserved. I learned it personally back then. An old man wearing bamboo sticks and mango shoes, beside him She was followed by a book boy carrying a suitcase and a maid carrying a suitcase.
It s just that Du Hanling didn t even say a word about this matter to the ancestor of Bailongdong. Seeing the handsome young man dressed in white as snow, the Yuanyoujing martial artist clasped his fists and saluted, while the chief priest of Jinding Temple gave a Taoist bow.At first, Chen Ping an s goal was very simple, which was to rescue all the monks on the ferry boat in Luzhou, Beiju within one month, leave the night ship, and return to Haoran together.
However, in one step, he shrunk down to a place halfway across the mountains and rivers. Suddenly, he was ten thousand feet tall and appeared directly in the sky.Together with the academy gentleman Wang Qi, Caomu an Xu Tong, and Shen Guogong Gao Shizhen, they all participated in the previous dangerous hunt to kill Chen Ping an.
It just has a good relationship with our Luolu Mountain, so there is no need to think too much about it.After seeing the young girl squatting at the foot of the wall, he slowed down and turned his head several times.
That s called Zhuxi. Mr. Chen Ping an Smiling, he corrected one of Yao Xianzhi s statements, and then asked, Have you ever heard of a young looking monk, but he must be quite old in real life.The former Oizumi supervisory vassal king was reduced to such a miserable situation. Liu Cong, who was leaning against the wall and curled up, raised his head and looked at a rickety old man outside the prison, accompanied by an old housekeeper in a black gown.
made of ordinary green bamboo, written with ordinary pen and ink, but did not write the name or taboo, but used thick ink and heavy pen to write the sentence I can t create a book at all.Just like today, Chen Pingan took his children to visit the market shops. There were many people on the road, but almost everyone kept a distance from each other intentionally or unintentionally.
Of course, there were also the Tianque Peak and Jinding Temple of the northern sect, especially Jinding Temple.He was still in the Fourteenth Realm. He seemed to be under the pseudonym Lu Fayan. Anyway, he admired the name of my poem. took the initiative to find me at the top of the city and said that my poems were in rhythm and were amazing.
Chen. The Goddess of Buried River Water also had to stand up and say goodbye. Over at the Qintian Prison in the capital, Liu Rou, besides waiting for Master Sheng s reply, actually had one more important thing to do, which was to entrust her to refine a moat to stabilize the city.It s unjustifiable if you don t give me any face. As for Senior Yuan Xuanfeng, he agreed because of his junior brother Zhang Shanfeng s face and because he was familiar with Chen Pingan.
So whether a land immortal can easily control mountains and rivers is a litmus test for a land immortal s qualifications and skills, and whether he can use his sleeves to control the world is a test between a monk in the Jade Purity Realm and a golden elixir in the middle five realms.He found that Pei Qian and the others were already waiting on it. Pei Qian had a strange expression on his face. seeing the big white goose was there, he couldn t help but said nothing.
The water rushed and all the sand and soil were peeled off, leaving only the huge rocks standing firm, so they stood upright like a peak.As well as Yuan Shou, who is responsible for targeting Jade Guizong and Jiang Shangzhen, this great throne demon is what Cui Dongshan and Chun Qing said on the Caizhi Mountain side, the younger brother of our ancestor who moved mountains in Zhengyang Mountain.
Countless swords rose up between heaven and earth, riding eight long rivers of flying swords, rushing towards Pei Min in a mighty manner.Chen Ping an had someone in mind for the Sword Worship Platform, Cui Wei took the lead, and the nine sword immortal embryos all stayed there.
A person serves as a hidden official in the Great Sword Qi Wall and has stayed there all these years.Chen Pingan, who couldn t help but still shoulder the burden of being a hidden official, didn t think much about it.
Chen Pingan is not in a hurry to break through the realm, but cherishes Tong Ye more and more. This is the invisible tempering of this natural martial arts field in Asia.Chen Pingan turned to look at Han Yushu, Are you really determined to kill me Han Yushu smiled and nodded, Otherwise Chen Pingan glanced back at the golden stream, sighed, and slowly rose into the wind.
No wonder Chen Ping an commented on her that she is destined to be so lucky and so talented. It didn t sound nice, but in fact it wasn t mean at all.He said that the word Di was actually related to bundles of firewood and the mirror refined Yangsui, which were used to draw fire from the sky.
He waved the green bamboo stick in his hand casually, disturbing the wind and snow around him. The young man s sword is close, and the hero is the enemy of thousands of people.If a person like Chen Pingan was among them, there was no reason why he should not be famous. To say that Chen Ping an was afraid of death and lived in vain, Liu Zong would never believe it anyway.
Chen Pingan held up his bamboo hat and said from the bottom of his heart, When Senior Song returns home, I will tell him, Swordsman Chen Pingan is the last hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall.After intensively studying the sixteen Buddhist contemplations, he finally chose the White Bones Contemplation among them, and was able to ascend to the realm of ascension.
With so much dissatisfaction, she found the original owner more and more distasteful, and was full of resentment towards the Chu family.You five, go over there and be responsible for watering.
Its iron cavalry is naturally brave and good at fighting The people of Zhao State are insidious and cunning, they are good at raising Yin soldiers, and kill people without warning.Chu Han took the thin girl s hand, Let s go, go to the hospital.
Lan Xin explained.Song Yaming is not bad, but also very good, but she doesn t like him.After a few people came in, seeing the man s familiar face, he froze suddenly, is it him Chu Han How could it be him He and the representative of New Company are actually the same person, how could this be Lan Xin s elder brother, the man who had a conflict with him a few days ago turned out to be the partner he had always wanted to meet, God, what did he do Chu Han naturally also saw Zhou Chen, he hooked the corner of his mouth, and walked towards him.
Chu Han was meditating and didn t notice these.Seeing that he didn t move, Xiaohe and Niuniu didn t move their chopsticks first.Chu Han cooked a large table of dishes, went to buy some wine and came back, and lit all the kerosene lamps in the house.
Yu Xiaoying patiently tells Yunyun about the people and things in the photos, and Yunyun listens very carefully.He sighed.In this life, Ximo disregarded his own life and wanted to help him get rid of demons, but how could he do such unsightly things in his previous life Just as he was thinking, Xue Zhuyu also said, I would also like to take out the inner alchemy to help Chu Han deal with the devil.
However, the Liu family is a nail biting household.Does Niu Niu like this town Chu Han took her little hand and walked among the bustling crowd middle.
The woman is in her early thirties and looks very beautiful.Dong Yufang laughed.Dong Yuan s eyes lit up, Really It s true.
It s not about scolding her, but she can still bear it if it s just scolding.Gao Tianming nodded, and said loudly, I am Gao Tianming, the director of Tianming Law Firm, and I am Mr.
The man came to the car and knocked on the door vigorously.Chu Kuan stopped her, and persuaded her softly Xin er, it s not that I don t want her, but this child.
The next day, when Lan Xin arrived at school, the principal called her to the office.Where s Zhao Ruyue Call Zhao Ruyue out Mrs.Qian arrived at Chu s house angrily, standing in the courtyard and shouting.
If it weren t for him, how could Lan Xin suffer so much and die of illness at a young age He and Zhou Chen are at odds, and he will never let him go Hello, I m Zhou Chen from the Zhou Group.Last night s assassination confirmed your lord s identity.
Looking for it secretly or issuing a hunting order Chu Kuan asked.Chu Heng was surprised, What Brother and Miss Lin s marriage Why didn t he know about this It s just that I still insisted on assigning the girl from the Lin family to your second brother, Heng er, do you know why mother did this Kang looked at his adopted son and asked.
If I had known that the Zhou family was such a family, I would never have discussed marriage with them anyway.Lin Zhilan and Chu Han walked on the way home, and Lin Zhilan sincerely expressed her gratitude.
In my opinion, I will be named the commander of the imperial guards to protect me and the safety of the palace.Liu Xiangguo was beaten until his nose was bruised, his face was swollen, his whole body was in pain, and he couldn t even speak clearly.
Ximo stopped and asked, What s the matter Let s make friends.When it comes to forging weapons, I never cared about the villain s words, and the villain can only follow His Highness s orders.
Her teeth chattered and said Zhou, Mr.Zhou, I, I. Come in.Zhou Chen didn t listen to her continue, threw out two words coldly, and then entered the villa.Who said it wasn t Hearing that the emperor admired Master Xiao Chu s strategy very much, he entrusted him and Master Lin with the task of leading the Jinshi of the new department to rectify the corruption of officials.
Ripple open.The sun is shining brightly, the breeze is warm, the lotus is blooming beautifully, the water in the pool is crystal clear, the fish in the water are wagging their tails, and the shore is full of laughter.Lan Xin sniffed, Brother is right, I can t let my mother see me like this, my mother exchanged her life for mine, I want her to see that I am alive and well, I can t let my mother see me like this.
I don t want you to suffer and hurt again, so I want to do my best to love you.You embroider so well, who did you learn your embroidery from Going back to the empress, my wife learned from an old lady in Huaiyang in the early years, and later made a living by it.
It was the first time they had seen such a powerful weapon.Now that Chu Kuan knew that it was Su Shi who harmed her child, he would definitely feel resentment towards Su Shi, and the relationship between the two of them was not as good as before.
Chu Han was slightly stunned and smiled.He wasn t sure if this Jiangcheng was the Jiangcheng who was going to marry Lanxin in the original plot, but judging from the various actions of this Jiangcheng, this person was definitely not simple.I accepted your request and exempted Mr.Zhao from the death penalty, but the death penalty can be forgiven, but the living crime is hard to forgive.
When Feng Wencai appeared, she felt that God finally cared for her.Dong Yuandao Isn t he just this time s Xinke Pongyan And Fang er, don t you always have that boy who helped you in your heart Why did you give the token to Lin Yuzhi as soon as you came back Father, because Lin Yuzhi is the boy who helped me back then.
How could this be Chu Kuan walked over to weigh it He weighed those new swords, and Zhao Chang s sword, and found that it was indeed much lighter than Zhao Chang s sword.Watching the carriage gradually disappear into the crowd, the expression on Zhao Ruyue s face turned cold.
Lian Er said My servant has already checked it out, and it is definitely her.He was ashamed, annoyed and angry, but he didn t admit defeat, but stuck his neck and said No matter what you say, anyway I m not talking nonsense, Lin Zhilan and I have been in secret relationships for several days, this is a fact, who would want a woman like her who is secretly taught by men Chu Han glanced at him, walked up to Lin Zhilan, and asked, Have you and Feng Wencai done anything I didn t, I have a clean relationship with him, and we have never crossed the line Lin Zhilan replied.
Just looking at the middle aged man who had already sat on the bed and struggled to adjust his body, Lao You asked doubtfully, Everyone is suffering from hemiplegia.If you can come out on top, maybe you can make the instructor look up to you.
Before this, he used his touch the most. Touch was used when he was palpating patients or doing bone setting.Why is the mood so low The reason is of course very simple.
That s it. For his own sake, Director Shi stopped being secretive and just said what he wanted.There was no urgency or anything. He was looking forward to it, but he looked very indifferent.
Since yesterday afternoon, I have always felt hungry and I have eaten more than before.Resistance. You mean, you said those few words to give them confidence Yes.
I thought, after all, seeing that kind of whirlwind that appeared out of nowhere three times in a row, and it was an untimely whirlwind, it was too easy for people to have wild thoughts.He thought that since Tang Jinhan had already thought of this direction, he might as well solve it while the iron was hot.
The name Poison King seems very similar to the title in the book, but the old man we are going to meet this time can truly bear the title of Poison King.He should have been listening to the elder sister s words.
But the first aunt at the door glanced at Du Heng, moved her feet slightly, twisted her butt slightly, and squeezed Du Heng out of the door.That is Lan Changhua and Cao Binghe. Especially Cao Binghe, it can be said that he was anxious and angry.
In addition, even if she needs surgery, the inflammation must be eliminated before surgery.It was originally a good thing, but for Mr. Luo and his son, this visit was actually just a process, and unnecessary arrangements were not necessary.
How is the effect Have you collected feedback from users A proud smile immediately appeared on Mr.But after reading it, let him find these three books.
his face. The man s face was very distorted, and even his eyes were full of pain, and for the first time, a trembling moan came out of his mouth.In addition, we are a hospital, which facilitates communication and coordination in all aspects.
Du Heng stopped with a smile, Is there anything else When Dr.But this society is not one where professionals can thrive, especially after the New Year.
I admire him for his sophisticated vision, rich experience, precise and just right technique.I believe you must have thought of various ways to interrogate the suspect before, or to get him to reveal something.
After pressing the neck, Du Heng walked to the old lady s From the front, he put the old lady s wrist in his palm, placed his two thumbs on the outside of the wrist, and began to massage it again.Du Heng looked at Dr. Xiaobai s serious look and smiled gently, It s just some common sense questions.
Du Heng was a little depressed, why is Master Li involved again Is it possible that Master Jia and Master Li have a conflict The information didn t say it, and the national chapter didn t say it either.There are three outpatient departments here, geriatrics, internal medicine, and acupuncture.
Wu Shengnan quickly adjusted his mood and then continued, Team Zhang suggested that we take the suspect to the place where the cyclone is to have a look.But strangely enough, since she ran away last time, she started to panic when she mentioned the meeting again, and it was not just normal panic.
Du Heng originally didn t want to waste time. He thought of starting the report and study meeting that had become a formality immediately, and went to complete the visit immediately in the afternoon.That was my lover. As soon as the words were finished, Lou Guozhang, as enthusiastic as before, smiled and greeted several people into the room, It s okay, she has entered the bedroom.
Du Xueting was stunned for a moment. Then he hummed softly and said, What do you mean I should be low key When did I become high profile Besides, what does this have to do with me Why are they bothering me if their butts are not clean You should listen to me, some Don t look at people who are usually dog like, they might do some dirty things secretly.
Du Xueting felt a little happier, but said with a hint of coyness, My brother in law just did it last year.
Probably because he was afraid that A Liang would confront Chen Pingan, he also imitated A Liang s tone and smiled, saying that although Chen Pingan didn t say it out loud, I think he must be Thinking this way, of course I feel that you, A Liang, are not like this.The white bowl in his hand could keep pouring water. Look, it was only such a big bowl. I saw him pour water into a bowl with my own eyes.
Listening to the girl s words, these etiquette officials were really shocked. How could Chen Ping an know that such a trivial matter could make these distinguished figures in the capital seem to be thousands of miles away in their thoughts.Ruan Qiong thought that he was about to open up the situation here. Everything was difficult at the beginning. The omen was good, so he felt a little better.
There was a young swordsman from Fenglei Garden squatting alone in a place with a heavy face. Liu Baqiao was chatting with Mr. Cui at the Supervisory Office.He even pays attention to when to cook medicine. In short, what happens next Xun, Chen Ping an, how hard you have worked.
The five fingers of her hands were in weird postures, with the fingers intertwined or bent. Chen Pingan felt that she had her eyes closed, but she seemed to be looking at something with her heart.Liu Xianyang comforted It s not me saying good things to Old Man Yao. He doesn t like you, but he doesn t hate you either.
Ruan Xiu squinted his eyes. Wait for the truth to come out. She walked at the bottom of the dry stream, following the ten foot long fire dragon.The girl didn t care whether the boy really understood or not, and said The nine realms of martial arts are divided into body refining, qi refining and spirit refining.
The child quickly stretched out his small white hand and said happily The hook is not allowed to change after hanging for a hundred years The two men pulled the hook with their little fingers and turned their thumbs up.The old Dragon City young master had no choice but to repeat, Song Jixin, do you know that there is a kind of person in this world who is very different from you Song Jixin finally came back to his senses, turned around and continued to squat, looking down at Gao Jixin.
Ah. A Liang said to himself If you don t have the ability to carve two or three words there in the future, I ll see if I don t cut you off.But she just couldn t stand Li Baoping s appearance, and she really needed a beating. The problem is that even the kids in the school who are about the same age as Li Huai can t beat Li Baoping.
Zhu He was a simple minded person. Even though he was a martial artist in the fifth realm, he still had the patience to apologize to his child and promised to buy him a complete set of brand new clothes when he left the mountains and entered the town.It is best to be able to hand over the blacksmith safely. In the hands of Master Ruan , if you can survive the last sixty years, everyone will be happy, the people on the mountain will have opportunities, and the people at the bottom of the mountain will have stability.
Mr. Song was not like those high ranking officials before. Not only did Mr. Song not hide in the official office, cultivate his moral integrity, nor did he thank guests behind closed doors, he concentrated on studying in his study, but on the burning of official kiln porcelain.He ate more happily than anyone else, but he still remembered the embarrassing incident of being pushed to the ground and slapped on the head by Li Baoping.
On the first day of the first lunar month, Song Jixin was sitting on the threshold basking in the sun, and then a little thing commonly known as a four legged snake scurried into the house under his nose.If there is no disaster, you will not recite the gods. If you want to be safe, you should burn incense. Liu Xianyang suddenly turned around and ran to the fortune telling stall at a fast pace.
They did not disperse with the wind, but condensed little by little in the mouth and nose. between. Finally, a three inch long white dragon seemed to be entrenched on the young man s face.He deliberately concealed his murderous intention and said loudly and angrily Earlier, you fingered A flick on the young man s forehead caused him to suffer from diseases all year round.
Even with Chen Pingan s friendship, he only saw it once in so many years, less than half of it. The incense sticks were carefully moved back to the red lacquer box and enshrined.I want to get a place of comfort. Ruan Xiu said strangely What s wrong with this You can t find fault with the resettlement of the land.
Zhuhe Zhulu started to set up a tent. Li Huai and Lin Shouyi ran to pick up flammable firewood. Chen Pingan and Li Baoping used stones to build a stove for cooking.Yangshan is not afraid of getting into trouble, and he also has an unknown secret history. You don t need to worry about it for the time being.
After he got up, he didn t care about the stall and ran away with his head in his arms. Liu Xianyang stood next to the stall, looked at the Taoist s embarrassed figure, laughed loudly, caught a glimpse of the bamboo stick tube on the table, casually stretched out his hand to push it down, and the bamboo sticks slid out of the tube with a clatter, and finally formed a fan shape on the table.
Unexpectedly, the boy in straw sandals still shook his head. Fu Nanhua, who was having more and more difficulty breathing, had lost the energy to bargain and was in a daze for no reason.Let Chen Pingan lead the way. The group of people walked upstream along the nameless stream. Chen Ping an was carrying a large basket with yellowed bamboo slices on his back, while Chen Songfeng was carrying a bamboo bookcase that was still green and lovely.
The Taoist sect of Dongbaopingzhou , there are so many, a pair of golden boys and girls will be selected every thirty years.The four surnames and ten tribes in the town suddenly received the news that within three days, all outsiders must evacuate.
