old grace

Fu Chuan went to the outer gate to inspect, how could An An dare to stay alone with Xie Qinghe?After paying his respects, he left with Fu Chuan.

Xie Qinghe did everything from the beginning to the end. He re-discovered the classics that had not been edited yesterday, without Fu Chuan to tease him, and fluently annotated while reviewing, the speed was much faster.While he was excited to write, Yun Chao touched it back, entered the door and kowtowed: "Congratulations, master."

What joy is there?

Going over the experience of becoming a demon, isn't the so-called happy event just a love affair with Fu Chuan?

It's one thing for Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan to play in the boudoir, but it's another thing for an outsider to tell him about his private affairs.

However, Xie Qinghe glanced at Yun Chao, but instead of reprimanding him, he smiled and agreed softly: "Yes."

It's a happy event.

Congratulations are acceptable.

Yesterday Fu Chuan went out to have a banquet, and Yun Chao was also invited.Xie Qinghe knew that Fu Chuan missed him after a long absence, and wanted to reminisce about the old days, but Chen Yiwei, Shi Qin and the others didn't know what happened, they thought it was Fu Chuan's love affair with the head master, and it was a different way to invite a wedding banquet.

——As for why only Fu Chuan attended the wedding banquet, everyone understands very well.

After all, senior brother is the real person in charge.

Yun Chao knew about the enchantment, and could vaguely guess the truth from Fu Chuan's state, so he could only follow the crowd and eat the "wedding feast".

It was not until today that Fu Chuan went to the outer sect to inspect the matter, and Yun Chao took the time to return to the Star Observatory to pay a visit.He was not a member of the Hanjiang Sword Sect from the beginning to the end, and his benefactor only recognized Xie Qinghe, and it was inconvenient for him to disturb Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan when they were alone, but once Fu Chuan left, he would still return to his master's side to wait.

"It is said that you found a place to live in Sandalwood Xiaozhu?" Xie Qinghe asked.

Yun Chao naturally approached him, helped him sort out the annotated manuscript, and replied: "Temporarily live in Sandalwood Xiaozhu. I have no long-term possessions, and I can put it in any grass nest." The implication is, The living conditions don't matter, he wants to live closer to the observatory.

Xie Qinghe also thought about the issue of relocating Yun Chao.

A few years ago, he thought about letting Yun Chao go out, but Yun Chao seemed stern and reserved, but in fact he was deeply attached to him.

Others only know that Yun Chao's swordsmanship is unique and his cultivation is extremely high. He stays cheerfully at the observatory every day, with a pure mind and no desires.Only Xie Qinghe knew that he was once a murderer who was possessed by demons and caused disasters, and he had suffered from emotional trauma and his heart was as cold as iron.Yun Chao not only regards Xie Qinghe as the benefactor who changed his fate against the sky and transcended the sea of ​​suffering, but also has complicated feelings about Xie Qinghe as a "more perfect self", so he cannot do without Xie Qinghe.

Yun Chao refused to set up his own family no matter what, insisted on staying by Xie Qinghe's side, and Xie Qinghe could not force him to go out.

With more and more experiences of becoming demons, Xie Qinghe also gradually clarified the relationship between him and Yun Chao.

Yun Chao is naturally a poor person who has suffered too much suffering and developed a heart disease. However, some people's heart disease can be completely cured by various means and medicines, while some people are very unfortunate. If they want to maintain their health, they have to take medicine for life.

Xie Qinghe is the medicine that Yun Chao must take for a lifetime.Once he leaves him, Yun Chao's murderous hidden disease will deteriorate rapidly.

Therefore, in these years, Xie Qinghe rarely mentioned the matter of letting Yun Chao leave.

What's more, for so many years, Yun Chao has been serving him diligently and earnestly. He travels thousands of miles a year just to run errands and deliver letters. As for "marrying a daughter-in-law", it is necessary to "separate the family".

"Half a mile to the west of Feiyu Rock, there are two houses, which were originally the place where Patriarch Su Qingyuan practiced and enlightened. After the lightning strike of Zhihe, Tianjing Peak was broken, and Tianfeng Huanbi was filled under Feiyu Rock. It became a cliff, and no one usually goes there. When I was young, if I wanted to hide and relax, I would go there for entertainment. It’s just that it’s been so many years, and I don’t know if I can still live there...Can you repair and clean it yourself? "Xie Qinghe arranged a place for Yun Chao.

Banshan Taoli is naturally a good place, but the Hanjiang Sword Sect has different levels of food and clothing. It is no problem for Fu Chuan to live in Banshan Taoli as the head disciple. Shangguan Shiyi once arranged for Shiqin to live in Banshan Taoli. Seeing that he is Yan Buqie's "widow".

Chen Yiwei, the direct descendant of the dignified head of the sect, and the disciple of the head of the inner sect, is still living in Tanxiang Xiaozhu at this moment, and dare not touch the peaches and plums in the middle of the mountain.

Yun Chao is not considered a disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, so how could he really be allowed to live in Taoli in the middle of the mountain?

On the contrary, the two huts he lived in when he was young are located on the cliff, connected to the observatory, not far away and actually separate the two places. If the conditions are difficult, it’s really true. Xie Qinghe would pick a place when he was young. , Feng Shui is not good and does not support people, he is not willing to live.

As long as the house is cleaned up, the place is full of aura and suitable for cultivation, and the window is a beautiful view of the cold river, it is definitely a good place.

Yun Chao has been jumping up and down in the past month to survey the terrain near the observatory. He also took his fancy to those two houses. Of course he knows that the place has excellent feng shui. You can live on the floor without any hassle.”

Xie Qinghe couldn't help being dumbfounded.Well, I've already taken care of the house.

After dealing with the issue of Yun Chao's residence, Yun Chao asked about his daily life.Xie Qinghe had a regular life, and he was unwilling to indulge Fu Chuan's Hu Tianhudi any more, so he told Yun Chao the time for three meals and one night.It's nothing more than going to bed an hour earlier and getting up half an hour later.The day is the same as before.

After Yun Chao found out his future position, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xie Qinghe continued to turn over and write annotations, Yun Chao quickly made the bed, tidied up the fabric clothes, and tidied up all the messy Xingtai that Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan had made, and there were special disciples at the outer door to help unpack and wash the large pieces of the Xingtai , Yun Chao made a trip to deliver laundry as usual.

After Yun Chao finished tidying up everything, Xie Qinghe's comments were also finished, and the manuscript was re-revised and revised, ready to be bound into a book.

Yun Chao came up to serve attentively: "Master, let me come."

Xie Qinghe thought to himself, how simple is it to bind books?After all, Yun Chao is also a master of swordsmanship with subtleties, so he won't have any problems with sewing a few pieces of paper with a needle and thread, right?Immediately, he put down his hands in peace and asked Yun Chao to help.

But he didn't know that his sleeves had just been put down, and the thread on the other side flew towards the needle, and there was a tearing sound.

The manuscripts that had been neatly stacked by Xie Qinghe exploded into a bunch, tied with silk cotton thread.

Xie Qinghe: "..."

Yun Chao hurriedly laid the manuscript flat on the table, and kept stretching his hands, trying to restore it.

Xie Qinghe picked up the bamboo ruler for the whole book and shook it on the back of his hand, Yun Chao hurriedly pulled his hand, Xie Qinghe took the manuscript back from his hand, and said helplessly: "Go and tidy up your place, don't touch my booklet gone."

Yun Chao knew he had caused trouble, so he turned around and ran away without saying a word.

Xie Qinghe looked at the house that Yun Chao had tidied up, and shook his head slightly.

Yun Chao didn't have much talent for serving people, and in recent years, practice made perfect and he came to serve him forcefully, and Xie Qinghe also suffered a lot to be able to serve tea and water with his hands and feet deftly today.However, the work of binding books is, after all, rarely done.

Xie Qinghe didn't intend to continue to train him.

If the booklet is reserved for future generations to admire, if it is ordered crookedly, it will affect the glorious image of Patriarch Xie Qinghe, let alone twist it into twists?

Xie Qinghe disassembled the booklet, re-laid the paper and copied it, resolutely leaving no flaws.

After copying half of the brochure, Xie Qinghe was a little hungry, and he realized that Fu Chuan hadn't come back yet.Get up stretch your muscles and drink a cup of tea, Xie Qinghe was about to find some snacks to pad his belly, Yun Chao came in with a food box, and said: "I went to Sandalwood Xiaozhu to pack my rucksack. The kitchen brought some food for the master."

Xie Qinghe washed his hands and sat down. Yun Chao spread the bowls and chopsticks for him, and said, "It's about the migration of the Miao people to the north. When the little master comes back, I will report to the master in detail."

Xie Qinghe nodded.

Fu Chuan is handling it by himself, which means that the matter is still under control, or the matter is not serious.

Yun Chao had dinner with him and served tea breaks as usual.Xie Qinghe drank his tea and finished his rest. Seeing that he was going to copy the manuscript again, the guilty Yun Chao helped grind the ink and lay the paper, and then quietly closed the door, exited on tiptoe, and continued to move.

In half an afternoon, Xie Qinghe rearranged the ink manuscripts, bound them into a volume, and put them into a letter box together with the old ones.

——There are many different paths in the matter of practice, and Xie Qinghe can't say that he is definitely right.

His revised annotations will be put back in Zhibao Cave together with the old classics for future generations to choose.In his mind, future generations must be better than today's.

At this time, it was still early and Fu Chuan was not around, so he thought for a while and entered the portable space.

The little chubby girl came up to meet him, tilted her head to look behind him: "Where's little brother?"

"He will rest for a few days." Xie Qinghe looked at the demons placed on the round rune wall by the little fat girl, "I will go in alone."

"I specially picked this out, so that senior brother and junior brother can go in together." The little fat girl eagerly stopped Xie Qinghe, not letting him approach.

These carefully selected demons not only meet Xie Qinghe's strict requirements for not cultivating, but also have relatives and friends who accompany the original demons for the future.

This kind of suitable demon is naturally used one less, Xie Qinghe wants to become a demon alone, and the little fat girl refuses to let him waste it.

Xie Qinghe stood where he was and said, "Of course I will follow your arrangement."

The little fat girl patted her chest and said, "It's much easier for senior brother to go in alone. Wait, Wen Lanlan will find you one right away."

Among the four gates of Taoism, Dan, Lian, Qi, and Zhi.

Xie Qinghe already has three foundation-building codes, "Big Bend and Unbreakable", "Inner Fire Refining the Truth", and "Strengthening the God and Armor", which correspond to the Tao of Alchemy, the Tao of Refining, and the Tao of Artifacts.The only thing I know is that there is still a vacancy.

The way of alchemy is the root of the cultivator, and the rest of the way of refining, the way of tools, and knowing are all sideways.

Knowing is also called Zhidao and Huidao. Among many immortal stories, there are records of a certain scholar, virtuous minister, high-ranking official and aristocrat who read scriptures for many years, suddenly enlightened, and ascended to immortality.Those who know that cultivators only read books to understand the principles, never practice life, and once enlightened, they will directly ascend to heaven.

——So, among the four gates, cultivating knowledge seems to be the easiest, but in fact it is the most difficult.

From ancient times to the present, no one can sum up and master the known practice rules. The so-called soaring directly after enlightenment is completely lucky.

Xie Qinghe is determined to succeed in the first three cultivation methods, but he has no idea about the cultivation method, nor does he have much obsession.

Anyway, there are so many demons, anyway, there are so many opportunities to become demons, so try and make mistakes again and again with a calm mind.

It doesn't matter if you make mistakes every time and fail again and again, the right is to practice.

If you accidentally hit the big luck...

After all, a mortal has only one chance, and he can do it again indefinitely, and the chances of hitting the big luck are of course countless more than mortals.

This time I was born in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, a land of fish and rice. My grandfather Jiang Dafu was the landlord of Linjiang Village, and my father Jiang Zhanwen was a scholar who was educated and literate. Very nourishing, mother Zhang is a peasant girl, who is diligent and thrifty in managing the house and taking care of the children. The family lives very happily.

Jiang Yingzhou is the only son in the family. The three elder sisters above him, the eldest sister is gentle, the second sister is cunning, and the third sister is aggressive. They all love him.

Born in such a family, Jiang Yingzhou is very happy.

First, the family is well-off and there is no shortage of food and drink.Second, the family relationship is simple and there is no intrigue.Three years ago, the whole family regarded him as a baby lump, and if the stars were not given to the moon, it was almost the father, mother, sister and the whole family of five who confessed to him alone.

Under such circumstances, Jiang Yingzhou was actually possessed.

Young Master An, a rich man in the town, has a mutton jade pendant worth a hundred taels. Jiang Yingzhou likes it when he sees it. Clothes are poor and humble, and you don't have the face to see people.

Jiang Zhanwen went out to accompany wine and sell poems one after another, and the family saved money on food and expenses, and finally bought him a high-quality jade pendant, so Jiang Yingzhou was so happy that he hung the jade pendant and went out.

The good times didn't last long, and soon Jiang Yingzhou became angry again, staying at home and refusing to go out.

——Because, Young Master An has several different jade pendants, and he only has one piece of jade pendant that doesn't repeat every day!

Wearing the same jade pendant to go out every day, seeing Master An's different jade pendant, Jiang Yingzhou felt that everyone was laughing at him!

In order to buy that piece of jade pendant, he emptied his family's money and lost Jiang Zhanwen's face for many years. It is absolutely impossible to buy a second piece of jade pendant.Mrs. Zhang didn't understand the truth, so she begged Jiang Zhanwen to sell more poems and buy a jade pendant for her son, which made Jiang Zhanwen furious.

Jiang Zhanwen was able to raise the money by selling his poems and essays in a short period of time. What he sold was not his poems and essays, but his contacts and face for many years.

He is a scholar with limited talent, how much can poetry be worth?It's just that the proprietor who has been walking around all these years is showing respect.

Zhang's ignorant peasant woman did not understand the mystery behind it, and even asked him to sell poems and essays again. Jiang Zhanwen couldn't hold back his face and was naturally angry.

Seeing her younger brother bedridden and her parents arguing about it, the eldest sister Jiang Yuanniang sighed secretly and pushed forward her childhood sweetheart's marriage and confessed to her parents that she was willing to marry the rice merchant of the Li family in Zhennan as a sequel. I bought two mutton fat jade pendants for my younger brother.

At this time, Young Master An was taken to study at his uncle's house in the county town, and Jiang Yingzhou became the most affluent boy of his age. The matter of Yupei was barely bypassed. Shang, whether life is going well or not, Jiang Yingzhou is not concerned at all.Old man Li's family is well-off. What's wrong with the elder sister marrying someone who is popular and hot?

Of course, when Young Master An went to study at his uncle's house in the county town, Jiang Yingzhou also wanted to make a fuss.

It's just that my uncle is farming in the countryside, so he can't change his mother's family no matter how much trouble he has, can he?Jiang Yingzhou had no choice but to give up.

As he got older, Jiang Yingzhou read the Four Books and Five Classics in a mess, and he could say that he had accomplished nothing.Summer is too hot to study.In winter, my hands are cold and I cannot read.Reading in spring and autumn also has to choose a day, don’t read when the sun is too dazzling, don’t read when the light is too dark when it’s cloudy and rainy, and you can’t read at night—the candle can damage your eyes, but it’s a lifetime thing!

When he was 15 years old, Jiang Zhanwen dragged him to the county to take the entrance examination for children. Jiang Yingzhou lost his temper with a sullen face when he came out of the examination room.

Mrs. Zhang coaxed him: "It's just to learn more, your father was only 20 years old when he passed the exam..."

Jiang Zhanwen raised his eyes: "What does it mean to be admitted to a scholar at the age of 20? How many people fail the exam! If I hadn't married you early, I am a talented person like me, a 20-year-old scholar, and the daughter of the county magistrate's family." They all want to propose marriage to me."

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Exactly. A 20-year-old scholar is too early. How old are you? Don't worry."

Jiang Yingzhou threw the test basket on the ground in a hurry, smashed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the family members were stunned—Jiang Erniang was also married at this time, besides Jiang Zhanwen and Zhang, there was also the third sister Jiang Youniang in the family.

"Everyone uses Wenzhenfang's test basket. The upper and lower floors have separate pens, inks and inkstones. I'm the only one using this crappy thing!"

"People use ink from Huizhou and inkstone from Shezhou. The ink they grind out is smooth and compact, and the writing is beautiful. What kind of broken inkstone is it like a rotten stone? I'm ashamed to take out my broken pen! My pen is more than a dozen taels of silver, and I am a tree branch!"

"What else should I take? It's not enough to be ashamed! It would be unreasonable for a poor man like me to be admitted as a scholar!"

Jiang Zhanwen sighed, and Mrs. Zhang clutched the handkerchief with panic and anxiety on her face.

Jiang Youniang frowned and said, "Father's family was also very embarrassed when he was taking the exam. The pen and ink he used was not as good as what you use today. You said that your pen is worthless, but it is worth more than 700 yuan anyway. How much did my mother and I embroider?" I just bought you a handkerchief. The test basket you broke was also used by my dad back then. He can pass the test, why can’t you? If you can’t poop, it’s the latrine.”

Mrs. Zhang has reprimanded: "Young lady! Why are you talking to my brother!"

Jiang Yingzhou was so angry that she stepped forward and pushed Jiang Youniang to the ground, and kicked her hard on her chest: "You don't care? I'm talking to my parents, what's the matter with you? What do you know about reading, what do you know about exams?" Learning? You are so capable, you turned into a man and came back from the exam for a scholar!"

Mrs. Zhang went to pull Jiang Yingzhou again: "Oh, my ancestor, that is your sister. No matter how angry you are, you can't kick her!"

Jiang Youniang sat up from the confusion, wiped her tears and cried: "Mother, look at him!"

Jiang Yingzhou had already been appeased, but when she heard this, she kicked Jiang Youniang in the face again, knocking Jiang Youniang to the ground, and scolded angrily: "Girls are extroverted. Don't think you dare to take Joe when you are discussing marriage. If you go out, if you are a member of my Jiang family, I will kick you to death!"

Seeing Jiang Youniang spitting out blood, Jiang Zhanwen frowned and stopped: "Okay, don't make trouble anymore!"

Everyone looked at Jiang Zhanwen, and the head of the family raised his legs in displeasure, and said, "Yingzhou just came back from the game, and he was already irritable. Let him vent his anger and let it go. It's really as simple as studying and taking exams." What's the matter? Ten years of hard work, when don't you work hard?—Young lady, what do you know about studying and taking exams as a girl? You eat and drink at home, pamper yourself all day long, but you have to quarrel with your brother who studies hard! She Mother, take her in to play a few hands, and then come to make amends to my brother."

Jiang Youniang was dumbfounded by the training, she knew that her father was eccentric, but she didn't know that she was so eccentric.

Jiang Yingzhou looked at her triumphantly, and went to pour tea for Jiang Zhanwen like a dog: "Father, I am not angry anymore, and you should not be angry either."

Mrs. Zhang also felt sorry for her daughter, Qiqi Ai Ai looked at her husband several times, but Jiang Zhanwen stared back fiercely.In desperation, she had no choice but to coax her daughter into the house, fetched water to wash her daughter's footprints and blood from her mouth, and then hugged her daughter in her arms: "Don't hold grudges. This is a man who studies and takes exams." We women and Taoists don’t understand things at all. My younger brother is tired of studying and taking exams, so don’t bother him... Sigh, your father is also in a hurry. You stretch out your hand and Auntie hits you a few times. home tutor."

Through a door, Jiang Yingzhou heard Mrs. Zhang hitting Jiang Youniang's hand with a bamboo ruler, and heard Jiang Youniang screaming in pain, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Here, the father is kind and the son is filial, drinking and eating meat, while Mrs. Zhang is busy in the kitchen. Jiang Youniang has to use her swollen hands to clean up the pens, inks, papers and inkstones that have been thrown all over the floor by her younger brother. Looking at the smashed inkstone, Jiang Youniang burst into tears. It fell down.

When Xie Qinghe woke up, it happened to be the day after Jiang Yingzhou broke the basketball test.

Last night, Jiang Yingzhou drank two cups too much. Jiang Yingzhou is not good at drinking, and he has to imitate others to "drink their sorrows with wine".Jiang Zhanwen was really worried, Jiang Yingzhou was just pretending to be crazy by drinking, and went back to the house after getting drunk and fell asleep.

Anyway, I've already been "worried", isn't it a matter of course that I didn't get into Tongsheng?No one is allowed to mention this sad thing.

With Mrs. Zhang taking care of her, when Xie Qinghe woke up, he was wearing clean clothes, and the room was clean and airy, without any sloppy drunkenness.He has witnessed Jiang Yingzhou's life and knows all Jiang Yingzhou's emotions. He is now skillfully capturing his emotions and getting familiar with his skin.

The reason why he woke up at this time was naturally because Jiang Yingzhou believed that today could prevent the greatest regret in his life from happening.

According to Jiang Yingzhou's memory, Young Master An went home to visit relatives today and brought his uncle's cousin to the town.

There is a lotus pond in the west of the town, the lotus leaves are as big as buckets, and it is also a well-known scene in ten miles and eight towns.When Young Master An took his cousin to admire the lotus in Zhenxi, he would pass by Jiang's house.

It happened that Jiang Zhanwen was not at home, and Mrs. Zhang went to the street to buy soy sauce. Jiang Yingzhou woke up hungry and asked Jiang Youniang to cook poached egg noodles for him. Jiang Youniang was angry yesterday, so she dared not refuse to cook noodles for him, but her mouth was sulky. Two sentences.Jiang Yingzhou was so angry that she beat her again. Jiang Youniang was very angry after sleeping all night, and picked up a fire stick to confront Jiang Yingzhou.

Although Jiang Youniang is old, she is thin and weak and has little strength. How can she beat Jiang Yingzhou, who is well-nourished and tall?

So Jiang Youniang fought and retreated, and ran out the door.

——I bumped into Miss Biao of An's family.

Jiang Yingzhou believed that it was precisely because of this extremely bad first impression that he lost the possibility of marrying Miss An Jiabiao.

Xie Qinghe sat up from the bed, feeling the clamoring hunger in his chest and abdomen, resisting the original urge to ask Third Sister to cook the noodles.

Some people become demons due to small minds, some people become demons due to their desires, and some people become demons because of their heinous nature.

There are also some people who become demons purely because of... brain damage.

Miss An's Biao, the daughter of the fifth-rank member of the Wailang family, and the granddaughter of the Xungui family, she is missing an arm and a leg, and her mind will always be three and a half years old, so she can't marry you, a good-for-nothing who can't even pass the childbirth test!

What are you thinking? !

Toad wants to eat swan meat!
