longevity road trip

When he went there that time, he didn't see the kind-faced Zhenjun surnamed Mu and the indifferent old man with simple swords.On the way back, he set up an array to kill a group of second-tier sea beasts and two third-tier sword shark monsters, and then quietly returned to the Green Bamboo Valley in the coastal city.

The most recent shot was because of a Jindan casual cultivator.This man has been in the alchemy for more than 140 years, and he practiced the wood-type kung fu. He took refuge in Xuanyuanzong and became a guest minister.

Maybe it's because Zhang Shiping hasn't shown mountains or waters since he formed alchemy for nearly a hundred years, and this person doesn't know whether he is too conceited, or he was bewitched by others and promised something, and he actually sent a letter of war to Zhang Shiping through the sect .

This kind of thing has rarely happened once in the hundreds of years in Binhai City. Jindan Daoist, who had a good relationship with Zhang Shiping, visited several times for this, and told all kinds of news about this person, and more Jindan Daoist Watching the excitement, the market in Fangshi is even more open.

When Zhang Shiping received the letter of war, his anger and murderous intent rose suddenly.But he suppressed it in front of many friends, and he looked like he didn't care at all, talking and laughing with his friends, just to let them relax.

In the end, during the fight, Zhang Shiping accidentally confiscated the hand, causing the sect to lose a new Jindan Keqing.

After this time, Zhang Shiping returned to the state of living in seclusion, but the business of the Zhang family became more and more prosperous, and the wealth was abundant.

Chapter 433 I Can't Hide The Final Coming

The fall of the Jindan cultivator is considered a major event in Binhai City. With Zhang Shiping's attack this time, the Zhang family's reputation in Binhai City has grown a bit. Face, so the Zhang family's business has improved to a higher level.

But this is not a good thing for Zhang Shiping, and certainly not a bad thing.

Now Zhang Shiping is only two hundred years old, he has both strength and potential, and he is in his pocket, no one wants to have any trouble with him.Because this kind of person is either beaten to death with a stick, or he is not good with him.

The Zhang family has been growing slowly over the years.Among them, the child with double spiritual roots of the "Tian" generation of the Zhang family entered the inner sect of the Xuanyuan Sect when he was 16 years old. Doesn't it mean that the Zhang family can't afford to train a descendant with dual spiritual roots? It is an attitude that the Zhang family expressed to the sect.But when the child was just able to walk on the ground, the clan sent him to the Green Bamboo Valley.Zhang Shiping personally taught him for a few years, and he was sent to the sect after his temper had been polished.Clan, sect, primary and secondary are clearly distinguished!

He is cultivating in Xuanyuan Secret Realm. A few days ago, the Zongmen sent a message to Zhang Shiping saying that this child practiced hard and had broken through to the late stage of Qi training. He was somewhat stronger than those little monkeys from other families. When he said, he earned enough face.When Zhang Shiping was his age, he had only just reached the middle stage of Qi training, but the predecessors planted trees, the descendants enjoyed the shade, drinking and pecking, there is a definite number.

As for those "Tian" descendants with average qualifications in the valley, at a certain age, if their cultivation cannot reach the level set by the clan, they can only go out of the valley to handle chores for the clan and earn their own cultivation resources.

Even though Zhang Shiping has a few children in these years, Zhang Shiping is very optimistic, but he has never broken the rules he set.

The sky is round and the place is square.Within this radius, the most unpredictable thing is people's hearts. Once the rules are broken, it will be like an embankment. First there will be a small hole, and then the family will fall apart amidst strong winds, heavy rains and turbulent waves.

Therefore, even if Zhang Shiping had been optimistic about Zhang Tianyu, when he practiced to the late stage of Qi training, Zhang Shiping only agreed and rewarded him with a high-grade flying sword.

Then the child chose to go out for training, but now nearly 20 years have passed, and the child still has not returned.The members of the Zhang family's qi refining period did not have their own soul lamp in the ancestral hall, so whether Zhang Tianyu is alive or dead, maybe only God knows!

Under the loess on the Changsheng Road, the bones are in disorder, and I don't know the new tomb or the old tomb.

And another Zhang Tianwu who is quite talented in body training, now in his thirties, is finally dragged down by his own cultivation aptitude, and his cultivation is only at the eighth level of Qi training stage.However, his "Wood Xuan Body" has reached a certain stage, and those who have not yet started to condense their magic power, the casual practitioners of the ninth level of Qi training, will probably lose to him.Now this person is doing things outside for the family, earning his own cultivation resources, accumulating family contribution points, and wants to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill.

People in the world, once they are born, their fate starts to be different.There is nothing fair or unfair, or the word fair is a creation specially used by the superiors to give people hope.

Prince and general, would you rather have a kind?

It's a rhetorical question, a question, perhaps only God knows!

As a disciple of the "Tian" generation, the child with two spiritual roots doesn't have to be like Zhang Tianwu, who will come and go in the wind and rain for a Foundation Establishment Pill.At the ninth level of the child's qi training, when he wants to build a foundation, the Zhang family will provide a foundation building pill, plus one from the sect, and there will be two at once.

Of course, no one can say for sure about things in the world. Some people have four spiritual roots, but they get a small bottle and become the ancestor of the heavenly god;

Fortune and misfortune are impermanent, life and death are fateful.

……

……

One day, there was a small pavilion in the middle of the valley.

Zhang Shiping sat alone in it, a long piano was placed on the low table in front of him, his slender white fingers pressed tightly on the surface of the piano, pressing down on the strings, his brows were furrowed, and he was speechless for a long time.

The years did not leave many traces on Zhang Shiping's face, but his eyes became deeper and deeper, calmly and like a deep lake, neither sorrow nor joy.

In the genealogy of the Zhang family tree, "Yuan Hengtai of the same age, Tianzhi must be Wentian".

The clansmen of the Yuan generation just happened to meet Wan Jianmen annexing the Zhengyang Sect and other six sects, and were dragged down by Zhang Shiping. died.

There are only a few foundation-building monks left in the tribe of the Heng generation, but Zheng Hengyun is the only one who has reached the ninth floor of the foundation.Zhang Shiping taught him various methods that are helpful for alchemy such as Condensation Technique, as well as his own practice experience in alchemy, and even took him to watch several alchemy trials in the sect.Zhang Shiping deliberately asked Qi Feng to borrow a place in Qinghuo Valley with rich fire aura for him to retreat and practice.

Zheng Hengyun is more than 140 years old, and it will take another 20 years to condense his mana. By that time, he will only have one chance to form an alchemy when he is already old.For him with Yanlinggen, his practice is really too slow, which is the fault of the Zhang family, but without Zhang Shiping's guidance and Zhang Tong'an's teaching, Zheng Hengyun would not have the opportunity to step into the practice.

The love is intertwined, and they have long been indistinguishable from each other.

As for the clan members of the Tianzi generation, there are now some people who have achieved foundation building and have begun to become the pillars of the family. The Zhang family members of the Hengzi generation are also relieved, and the pressure is also relieved.

There are also members of the Zhang family from the Zhizi generation and the Bizi generation. The family inheritance continues and the incense is endless.

It's just that in Zhang Shiping's heart, with the passage of time, the family affection has gradually faded, and it has become more of a responsibility.

There were three people standing in front of him, one of them was an older middle-aged female cultivator who was the new patriarch Zhang Tianya after Zhang Hengren. Not long after he took office, Zhang Hengren raised some points, and he handled all matters in the clan well. Looking good saved Zhang Shiping a lot of worries.

Who would have thought that the ordinary little girl in the valley would be able to catch up with her peers and become a foundation-building cultivator.

Zhang Shiping originally disapproved of her being the head of the Zhang family, not because of any prejudice against her, but because she felt that what she should do more was to practice.But this child is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and has always had his own opinions, so Zhang Shiping agreed.But Zhang Shiping also stated first that if the trifles in the clan delayed her practice, she would resign the clan leader and go to practice with peace of mind.

After all, in the world of cultivating immortals, strength is always seen.

The other two young people were about twenty years old, and there were faint aura fluctuations from their bodies, and they had three levels of qi training.The two of them were not wearing the clothes of the Zhang family. They bowed and saluted, and said in unison:

"Junior Su Zhe (Su Yuan) pays respects to Master Zhang."

Then Su and Zhejiang presented a light blue jade slip to Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping took the jade slip, only glanced at it, then put it down, without saying a word for a long time.

After a cup of tea, Zhang Shiping stood up with a somewhat melancholy look on his face.

"The one who should come will always come, but I can't think of it so soon. This guy Su Shuang can't be earlier. It's better to say goodbye earlier. He will say it after he dies. I want to see him off. Who are you? Who is this person, don't let me know if you have the ability, hey..." Zhang Shiping sighed, as if he was questioning, and also seemed to be asking and answering himself.

The three lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

Zhang Shiping suppressed his mood. He also understood that there was too much difference in longevity between Jindan and Foundation Establishment monks. One day, there would be fewer and fewer close relatives and friends by his side. The day will come so early!

The human heart is a wall that builds higher and higher as time goes by. It has no doors or windows, and if one does not want to go out, outsiders cannot come in.

Zhang Shiping didn't want to lose his composure in front of the juniors, so he suppressed his mood. With a wave of his long sleeves, a red light gushed out, and he and Su Shuang, the two juniors, turned into a red flying rainbow and disappeared.

Chapter 434 Quiet

Zhang Tianya watched the startled rainbow disappear into the sky, then turned and left.

The shadows of the trees whirled, and Zhang Tianya was wearing a wide-sleeved flowing feather skirt, and walked slowly through the familiar path under the bamboo forest. The mottled light and shadow passed her eyebrows and her eyes.

The little girl in the past has long since grown up, with bright eyes and white teeth, graceful, but in her eyes, there is a bit of sadness that cannot be erased.

She remembered that when the ancestor first entered the valley, although the ancestor was obsessed with cultivation, he would personally teach these children from time to time, either reprimanding or encouraging, after all, with some affection.

But as time passed, the ancestor once asked about Tian Yu. After knowing that he had not returned for a long time, she remembered that the ancestor squinted his eyes, looked up at the sky, and was silent for a long time.

Afterwards, the clan meeting held once a year in the family, in her impression, the ancestor never showed up again, and it has been ten years since then.Now the newly added members of the family have not even met Zhang Shiping, the patriarch of the family.

Zhang Tianya sighed, if the ancestor had several direct descendants, maybe his temperament would not be so cold.But the ancestor's temperament is more like an ascetic monk. If it is not because of the family, perhaps the ancestor has already wandered outside, living and dying for the Tao, just for longevity.

Secular literati and poets always wonder why longevity is not as good as a lifetime, if you live like a stubborn stone and dead wood, and seek longevity for the sake of longevity, then living for a long time is meaningless!

But these mortals have made one thing wrong.Longevity does not need anything to add meaning to it. Its existence itself is the most meaningful thing in the world, or only because of life, those love and hatred, love and hatred, romantic love and romance have their meaning.

As the breeze came, she curled a strand of blue silk that fell on her chest with her fingertips, and held it behind her ear with her bare hands. After walking for about half a mile, she stopped and looked at a green bamboo on the side of the road, It was about three feet high, and at the height of her waist, there were a dozen or so characters engraved on it—Ya, Lan, Wu, Yu, Hao, Wei...

Now 20 years have passed, and this second-order emerald green spirit bamboo has only grown two knots, but they haven't seen each other for a long time, and maybe they will never see each other again in their lifetime.

Life and death, life, is like night and day, heaven!

……

……

Binhai City is still bustling as usual, the air ban here is not opened in normal times, the sky is flashing with all kinds of brilliance, the monks are coming and going, and the monks and mortals on the ground are coming and going.

Those hundreds of feet long flying boats, with various carvings engraved on the boats, flashing thick shields of aura, rushed out of the thick clouds.

Every flying boat here is a magic weapon without exception, and some of them have been cultivated under the magic circle for many years, and their power is even comparable to the magic weapon of Nascent Soul cultivator's life.

There are also some sects that have been passed down for a long time, such as Xuanyuanzong and Shuiyueyuan.

Compared with the Red Moon Tower and Xifeng Pavilion that rose halfway.Although they were created by the venerable, their background is not as good after all.

One of the two-hundred-foot-long silver-white flying boats just emerged from the clouds. Standing on the side of the ship were a few teenagers in silver-white brocade clothes, who were looking into the distance through the spiritual shield of Ming Xinzhou. Somewhere, or overlooking the seaside, they chatted quietly from time to time, their faces full of excitement.

Of course, there are also older ones who are not so escaped. Most of them are meditating and practicing Qi.Only three monks, two men and one woman, accompanied an old man in Tsing Yi, with the appearance of humbly asking for advice.

The old man looked a little rich, he was Jin Datong, the elder of the Mingxin Sect.Of the two male disciples among the three, the one with the smiling face is called Zhao Tong, the rather serious one is called Lei Yun, and the remaining female cultivator with a graceful figure is called Liu Huan'er.

Jin Datong is easy-going and likes to support his juniors.And these three people had just reached the foundation building stage, and the questions they asked were not deep. After listening to them, he answered them easily.

The three of them have a tacit understanding. Usually, one person asks a question, and after getting the answer, he changes to another person. No one will keep asking questions, which makes people disgusted and disgusted!

Jin Datong naturally knew about their small calculations, but he didn't point it out. It's too late for him to be happy that the younger generation can make progress!

"Lei Yun, what you practice is the earth attribute technique, and the five elements produce restraint. You can find a place with a strong fire attribute aura and practice for a period of time, and your problem will be solved. Otherwise, you can also take some fire attribute medicine, of course Refining some kind of fire spirit to make up for the lack of skills, once and for all is naturally..." Jin Da's words stopped abruptly, at this time a red startled rainbow flashed from the bottom to the side of the flying boat, slightly touching the flying boat's aura mask After touching it, the mask rippled away like water waves, and the flying boat shook slightly.

The children on the flying boat thought that an enemy was coming, and they all exclaimed.The dozens of disciples who were practicing meditation stood up abruptly, with their aura shaking, they took out their magic weapons,

"Quiet." Jin Datong said, his voice was very clear and spread throughout the entire flying boat.

Beside him suddenly was a middle-aged man in black, Min Caiquan, looking at the red startling rainbow that had flown away, with a slightly frivolous expression, but with a serious expression in his eyes, he said:

"That person should be fellow Daoist Zhang from Cuizhugu who beheaded Mu Tongling. Hei Yanduan is poisonous. I heard that fellow Daoist Mu accidentally got hit with one move, and his soul was severely injured. I underestimated him, maybe this person will be the next True Monarch Yu Xing, I really look forward to it!"

That Mu Tongling was Xuanyuanzong's Ke Qing who was beheaded by Zhang Shiping, and Zhang Shiping's hole card was also revealed in the eyes of others in that battle. Those real people who knew the news were jealous, and naturally they were also on guard. This is unavoidable. result.

"It should be him. You Bo and this fellow Daoist Zhang are the only ones around here. I have seen You Bo before. The breath that flashed just now is not weaker than that of the middle period. It must not be this person. This fellow Daoist Zhang looks like a pill About a hundred years ago, with such profound cultivation, I never thought that his evasion technique is even more superb, I'm afraid he is not weaker than Senior Brother Chang, he is not easy to provoke, not easy to provoke." Jin Datong laughed.

Jin Datong continued: "We old men will be careful in the future, and besides, we don't need to get involved in the muddy waters of Baimang Mountain. It's better not to be friends than to be enemies."

"Senior Brother Jin said that, of course it's the truth." Min Caiquan read Jin Datong's words and seemed to be pointing, but as if he didn't hear it, he said loudly.He understood that the fat man was talking about himself. After all, his father was a monk of Wanjianmen, and he was also the one who led him on the road of cultivation. However, he has lived in Mingxinzong since he was a child. ?

Trees fall and monkeys scatter, as has been the case for all ages.

……

……

Naturally, Zhang Shiping didn't know about this little episode, he was very anxious, wrapped around the two boys of the Su family, and used his escapism day and night with all his strength, without delaying for a moment.

It took him only half of the original three-day journey, and a familiar island was right in front of him.He landed in Fangshi under a small stone mountain with ease.

When the red light dissipated, the faces of the two young juniors of the Su family were pale and feeble. They resisted the nausea from their stomachs, not daring to lose their composure in front of Zhang Shiping!

Zhang Shiping looked at the Su Mansion in front of him, there was no approval list posted in front of the door, and there was no white candle paper money, but the mansion was a bit strangely quiet.He couldn't help feeling a little hope of being cheated.

Chapter 435

The gate of the Su Mansion was already wide open, and there were four people standing in front of the door, maybe they stood for too long, and it was the fourth watch, three of them were squinting, their figures were shaking a little, and they were drowsy. In terms of appearance, there is only one with a calm face, and the older middle-aged Su Lie is still holding on to his spirits.

Su Lie is Su Shuang's grandson, and the three young people are Su Lie's son, that is, Su Shuang's great-grandson.In the past, Su Shuang even teased Zhang Shiping, saying that he didn't have any filial sons and daughters under his knees, unlike his own children and grandchildren now, how lively!

Among the many descendants of Su Shuang, there are a few who have spiritual roots, but they are all middle and lower spiritual roots with three or four spiritual roots. So far, none of them have established foundations. Most of them are in the middle stage of Qi training and cannot sustain Get up.

At that time, Zhang Shiping just responded indifferently, why did he need his children and grandchildren to be filial, he still has hundreds of years of life, if he goes further, he can also live for a thousand years.In such a long time, he didn't want to send away his children and grandchildren one by one, leaving himself even more lonely.

It's just that when Zhang Shiping said these words, he pretended to be serious, which made Su Shuang grit his teeth, and almost made him angry. He drank several sips of Poguang wine, and then blushed and exhaled the wine, which turned into a very strong aura of water and fire. .

"Lie, meet Master Zhang." Su Lie woke up his three sons, then led them over quickly, bowing and saluting.

"Take me in to pay respects." Zhang Shiping said softly with a little support.

"Really Zhang, please follow me." Su Lie straightened up, his three sons had already received the lanterns from the servants in the mansion, and walked in front, leading the way for the two of them.

Zhang Shiping's heart sank, followed Su Lie towards the mansion, the Su mansion occupies half a mile, not too big or too small.The group of them walked slowly for only half a cup of tea, and Su Lie brought Zhang Shiping to the reception hall of the mansion.

On the tung oil-colored grand master's chair in the main seat in the hall, sat an old man with a pale face, wrinkled all over his face.

His eyes are closed tightly, his cheeks on both sides are shriveled and thin, and the hands resting on the armrests are a piece of wrinkled skin with prominent meridians, not much flesh, full of skinny feeling.

Zhang Shiping felt a very faint breath from Su Shuang, like a wick with sporadic fire, slowly rising and dissipating the ashes of burning embers.

Perhaps sensing Zhang Shiping's aura, Su Shuang opened her eyes, and after being dazed for a while, she gradually became clear.He started to laugh, his voice was also small and loud, and his pale and wrinkled face became rosy and plump at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Zhang Shiping was not very happy, he just shook his head and said, "Why bother?"

Su Shuang leaned forward slightly, stood up from the chair, bowed slightly, and walked in front of Zhang Shiping.Due to old age and frailty, Su Shuang no longer had the tall and straight figure of his youth, and now his body bones are a little shrunken, and he is nearly a head shorter than Zhang Shiping.

He raised his head slightly and smiled: "You think I think it's just a relapse of the old disease, and it's coming fiercely. If I don't accept the Turtle's Breath Nirvana Pill, I'm afraid I'll die. How can I persist until you come over?"

"Well, it's a surprise to see that I'm still alive!" He walked around Zhang Shiping and said with a smile.

But in the hall, the six people who came in with Zhang Shiping earlier, and the dozen or so people who were waiting here, all lowered their heads and didn't say a word, the atmosphere was quite dull.

Su Shuang felt uncomfortable, frowned and said, "Let's go outside, let's go to the stone pavilion on the top of the mountain to see the sunrise."

"Okay." Zhang Shiping squeezed out a word from his throat, then waved a red light, wrapped himself and Su Shuang, and slowly flew towards the small rocky mountain not far away.

In the misty night, the sea breeze blows, amidst the whistling sound, the shadows of the trees shake and change ever-changingly.
