The national teacher does not practice

Chapter 159
Outside the courtyard, seeing the wooden door close, Ji Ping'an's back disappeared, and the Pei mother and daughter waiting outside had different expressions.

Wearing purple clothes and wearing a golden step, the dignified Li Xiangjun's eyes showed hope, and he turned to look at his daughter beside him:

"This expert, where did you invite him? You are young, but you have an extraordinary bearing."

Pei Qiuwei was distracted. Hearing this, he looked at his mother and said:
"I heard it's from Zhongzhou."

Zhongzhou?Could it be that they are walking in Taoism?

Li Xiangjun is not stupid, as the mistress of the Pei family, she is in charge of the internal affairs of the big family, even if she is worried about her relatives, she will not lose her mind.

Allowing Ji Ping'an to meet the old Patriarch was a decision made after he was sure that he would not be easy.

"Mother, you said that he wants to see his grandfather, is it really just the benevolence of the doctor?" Pei Qiuwei asked suddenly.

Li Xiangjun looked at Conghui's daughter and asked, "You don't think so?"

Pei Qiuwei hesitated for a while and said:

"I didn't doubt it at first, but the more I got to know him, I always felt that this person seemed to know my Pei family too well. My daughter is just worried that his purpose is not pure."

It was clear that at noon, she had vetoed the maidservant's suspicion in the carriage, but at this time, she also felt that she couldn't figure it out.

However, Li Xiangjun was not surprised, but said:

"Because of this, it is necessary to ask him to see my father. Although my father is crazy, his martial arts cultivation is extremely strong, and he is not afraid of any malicious intentions. No matter what the purpose of this little gentleman is, he will never hurt his father. Moreover, according to the past From experience, my father's epilepsy was only temporary."

Pei Qiuwei suddenly realized:
"Mom, what do you mean, if he has good intentions, it will be fine, if he has other thoughts, you can use your grandfather's insight to see through? Or at least test him a little bit?"

Li Xiangjun smiled and said nothing.

Pei Qiuwei silently wrote down the matter, and was going to go back and study carefully at night. Mother looked innocent, but her thoughts were also very deep.

At this time, a figure trotted over in the distance.

"Mother, Second Sister, I asked my servant why you are here, why didn't you go in?" Pei Qian asked curiously.

He learned that the hexagram masters had finished divination, so he rushed to ask about the result.But I learned that my mother and sister were talking with a man in the side hall, and after finally passing by, they were attracted here again.

Li Xiangjun glanced at his silly son, but said nothing.

Pei Qiuwei sighed, ignored the guy, and turned to look at the unusually quiet yard:

In order to avoid causing noise when going crazy, the courtyard is equipped with a soundproof array.

"At this time, he might have met his grandfather, so don't be scared." She thought to herself.

……

……

"Pei Wuju! Come out and meet me!"

In the cold and chilling courtyard with fallen leaves everywhere, Ji Pingan sank into his dantian, exhaled and opened his voice, and his voice immediately exploded like thunder.

In the next second, in the small lake next to the three-story red patent leather pavilion, the water surface suddenly boiled up and down, with bubbles bubbling up, as if boiling.

Immediately, with a bang, a three-foot-high water column exploded on the water surface, and an old man wearing a soaked martial arts shirt broke through the water.

Only see the person:

His white hair was messy like weeds, his body was strong, and his chest was half open.

On the ankles of the brown bare feet, several arm-thick iron chains were imprisoned, which pierced wetly into the bottom of the lake, pierced through the mud, and at the end were poured Zhenjiang stone locks weighing a thousand catties.

As soon as Pei Wuju came out of the water, he punched the air wave and exploded. The fine water droplets shot towards the shore like bullets, but they were pushed away by invisible forces when they approached Ji Ping'an.

"Hahaha..." Like a madman, Chi Mu Wufu, who had been trapped in the top of the well for many years, let out a voice that seemed to be crying and laughing.

Stepping on the water, looking around, under the white hair like weeds, there is a pair of gray eyes, but there is no aura.

The moment he saw Ji Pingan, like an enraged beast, the old warrior arched his back, his beard stood on end, and he took big strides like a madman, and ran towards him.

The soles of the feet stepped on the lake, and every step that fell, white waves exploded, and the momentum was terrifying.

Arriving in front of Ji Pingan in the blink of an eye, he raised his right fist.

And at this moment, the iron chains on his feet were stretched to the limit, like a tight dog chain, making a sharp creaking sound, freezing his tiger's body in place.

"Peng!"

A punch was thrown out, so close at hand, the wind of the fist suddenly whipped up a storm, blowing Ji Ping'an's hair back, and his whole clothes trembling.

However, there was no panic in his eyes, only sighs and pity.

Pei Wuju was furious, and waved his fists continuously, but he was trapped by the iron chain, and he couldn't get close for a long time. He couldn't help being furious, screamed strangely, ejected back suddenly, and smashed half of the rockery that had already collapsed with his fist, as if to vent his anger .

There was a loud bang of smoke and dust, but no spiritual essence was used, which showed that its destructive power was terrifying.

But the old Patriarch, who was once glorious, is now like a wild beast, no wonder he would be willing to seal himself here.

Ji Pingan sighed softly and said:

"Pei Wuju, do you still remember the night of the full moon 13 years ago?"

His voice was not loud, but the moment he uttered the words, Pei Wu's movements, which were originally like a mad tiger, froze suddenly. His whole body was struck by lightning, his whole body collapsed, his neck turned around with a "click", and he stared at him intently. he.

In the gray eyes, a little bit of light gradually squeezed out, as if there was a sober will trying to wake up, but it was hard to break free.

Ji Pingan shook his head and sighed, and suddenly shouted:

"Wu Ju, wake up!"

There was a trace of spiritual essence in this voice, Pei Wuju only felt the roar of Huang Zhong Da Lu in his ears.

The whole person trembled like a sieve, the gray and madness in the eyes melted like ice and snow, and the whole person knelt down on the stone platform by the lake, holding his head in his hands and screaming.

Then, his muscles trembled, the dissipated spiritual essence shrank in his body, and the murderous intent pervading in the other courtyard quickly subsided.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying warrior in front of him became a frail old man with disheveled hair.

He raised his head slowly, brushed his white hair away with both hands, looked at the young man in front of him suspiciously, stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice:

"Who are you?"

At this moment, although Pei Wuju was embarrassed, there was a trace of demeanor like a martial arts master on his body.

He recalled the phrase "the night of the full moon 13 years ago" that Ji Pingan said just now, and he had a faint guess. He felt his mouth dry, and his voice trembled even if he didn't realize it. He cupped his hands and said:
"Old man Pei Wuju lost his composure just now and made the guests laugh. How dare you ask your name?"

Ji Ping'an looked flat: "No name, no surname."

Pei Wuju didn't dare to be careless: "Dare to ask about the background of your step?"

Ji Pingan said indifferently: "Scattered people in the mountains and fields."

Pei Wuju frowned: "Your Excellency, why are you here?"

Ji Pingan said, "Take one thing."

Pei Wuju's eyes lit up suddenly: "What do you want, sir?"

In a few short and inexplicable conversations, his address to the young man in front of him has changed several times.

Ji Pingan stood with his hands behind his back, gave him a weird look, waved his sleeves, and threw out a wooden sign:
"Don't tell me, the box that was stored with you back then is lost."

Pei Wuju's spirit was greatly lifted. At this moment, the old warrior's face showed an uncontrollable surprise, as if he had waited for countless years and finally waited for this moment.

He subconsciously held the tattered wooden signboard with both hands, as if he was holding a supreme treasure, and suddenly knelt down on his knees, the blue bricks under his knees split like spider webs:

"Pei's Martial Arts, pay homage to the national teacher!"

Ji Ping'an smiled, "Who are you meeting?"

Pei Wu raised his hand to hold the wooden sign, with a frenzied expression:
"In the past, when the Master of the National Teacher was leaving, he said that seeing the person holding this wooden tablet is like visiting the National Teacher in person."

These words are plausible. If you put it in an easy-to-understand way, it is similar to an official meeting Shang Fang's sword.

What Pei Wuju knelt was not the young man in front of him, but the deceased Great Master Zhou, but he didn't know that what he said was, in a sense, a false hit.

Pei Wuju showed reminiscence and said:

"13 years ago, the national teacher broke through and left the capital of God, and passed through Yuhang. It happened that the old man became obsessed with martial arts and almost died. Fortunately, the national teacher took action, and he saved his life. I was even more fortunate to follow the national teacher for half a month, and got his old man's advice. Martial arts practice, although there is no name, but there is also the kindness of rebuilding teachers.

Before leaving, the national teacher entrusted me with an iron box for safekeeping, saying that in the future someone will come to pick it up with this card, and told me that the root of the disease is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and it is difficult to cure it with external force. The maximum life extension is more than ten years. "

As he said that, Pei Wuju showed shame:

"However, the old man's life is almost at the end of his life, but he still hasn't taken the last step."

In the words, there are endless regrets and loneliness.

For a martial idiot, no breakthrough in the martial arts realm is more desperate than falling into madness. In other words, it is precisely because this inner demon cannot be solved that the epilepsy is getting worse.

Ji Pingan listened without commenting.

At that time, he had a premonition that the time limit was approaching, so he traveled to Kyushu to prepare for his reincarnation. Yuhang was an extremely important stop, and the Pei family indeed kept some "hole cards" here.

He originally wanted to find time to pick it up, but it turned out that he came here just in time for this opportunity, and he was also curious about Pei Wuju's state.

Now it seems that it is indeed only one step away.

It's just that the Wufu path is different from others, its threshold is the lowest, but the upper limit is more difficult to break.

However, if you can really step into Guantian, it will be a new world.

At this time, after Pei Wuju finished his memory, he got up and handed back the wooden sign, then raised his right hand and grabbed it towards the lake.

"boom!"

The lake exploded, and a huge black metal box about half a person's height burst out of the water and landed at Ji Ping'an's feet.

Perhaps it was soaked for too long, the surface was seriously corroded and entangled with aquatic plants.

But Ji Pingan didn't care, he raised a finger and put it down, just a little, a circle of white halo fell down along the top of the box, its dark surface was outlined by silver threads.

With a "click", the box popped open and the seal was lifted.

It wasn't until watching this scene that Pei Wuju completely believed that this person was the person predicted by the national teacher.

From the beginning to the end, Pei Wuju did not inquire about Ji Ping'an's identity and origin. When he saw him flicking the iron box, he disappeared without a trace, and he was included in the "Tao Jing" space, and there was no sign of strangeness.

Instead, he let out a long sigh of relief, showing a calm and satisfied look.

Ji Pingan looked at him, and suddenly said: "You seem to have been looking forward to this day for a long time."

Pei Wuju laughed and said:
"Wouldn't it be a good thing to be able to complete the entrustment of the national teacher and repay this kindness before death? If you wait until you die, everything will sink in the lake, and you will not die with peace."

Ji Pingan took a deep look at him and said:

"Aren't you curious about my identity?"

Pei Wu raised his head:
"Curious, but since my husband doesn't want to say anything, why bother to ask."

Ji Pingan nodded lightly. Back then, he dared to entrust things to this martial idiot because he liked his character, sincerity and sincerity.

Holding treasures in his arms for ten years, even the national teacher died for such a long time, he did not try to destroy the mechanism by force and take the treasures by force...

"It's rare."

As he said that, Ji Pingan flicked his fingers, and a white jade bottle flew out. Pei Wuju subconsciously took it with his big hand, and was stunned for a while, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Ji Pingan said lightly:
"This medicine can help you suppress epilepsy for one month. If the earth's spirit element is revived today, the shackles have been lifted. With your accumulation, as long as you are not disturbed by the disease, you are only one chance away from stepping into the sky. You have to recuperate your body this month. , Guben Peiyuan, I will come back today next month."

After finishing speaking, he said no more, turned and left.

Only Pei Wuju was left in a daze, as if he hadn't recovered from Ji Ping'an's words.

Suppressing madness... Consolidating the foundation and cultivating talents... There is only an opportunity to reach the sky-viewing realm... These words roared in the ears of the gray-haired old warrior.

How could he not hear what Ji Pingan was hiding?
Does the other party have a way to help him break the shackles?
Reborn?

At this moment, Pei Wuju, who was already ashamed of martial arts, felt his heart beating wildly, feeling the long-lost ardor, and his depression was swept away.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly picked up the food box and began to feast on it, eating meat with his left hand and drinking wine with his right.

After filling his belly, he jumped up to Tingchao Pavilion, and when he walked out, he was no longer dressed in rags, but in a clean robe of a martial artist. His white hair like weeds was simply tied behind his head, revealing a resolute face. faces.

"Father!"

When the beautiful woman Li Xiangjun led a pair of children and hurried in from the outside, what she saw was this scene.

The gentle woman was startled for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand to cover her mouth, surprise and emotion bloomed on her round face.

It's been a few years, and I haven't seen such a normal father?
Pei Qiuwei next to him, and the third son Pei Qian also showed astonishment, especially Pei Qian, who couldn't help but said:
"Grandfather, are you... alright?!"

Li Xiangjun gave his son a hard look, but in his heart, why didn't he think so?
Can't help being curious: "What exactly did Mr. Li tell you?"

Pei Wuju glanced at his daughter-in-law, granddaughter, and grandson, and frowned:
"Mr. Li?"

Li Xiangjun immediately told the story of what happened in the mansion. After hearing this, Pei Wuju thought for a moment and said:

"You don't need to know, as long as you remember what happened today, it is strictly forbidden to spread it. Except for the three of you, you must not let the fourth person know. In addition, you must not investigate this person in any way."

Li Xiangjun was puzzled, Pei Qiuwei bit his lip, his beautiful eyes were full of confusion and strong curiosity.

That young man, what exactly...is his identity?
……

at the same time.

Guided by his servant, Ji Pingan walked through the labyrinth-like Jiangnan gardens and walked towards the gate.

When he came, he had a clean sleeve, and when he left, not only did he have an extra hole card in the Taoist scriptures, but he also had a thick stack of bank notes in his sleeve.

This was a reward from Li Xiangjun, and Ji Pingan happily accepted it.

This time I came to Pei's, and I gained a lot.

On the one hand, new clues have been obtained, and the suspected rebirth of "Pei's eldest son" has been locked... Unfortunately, there is no clear direction for the time being, and we have to think about how to find it.

In addition, in addition to getting back part of the hole cards, he also got the unexpected joy of Pei Wuju.

Originally, according to Ji Ping'an's thinking in his previous life, it was extremely difficult for Pei Wuju to step into Guantian during the low period of heaven and earth, almost impossible.

But now, the shackles of heaven and earth have been loosened, and there is a chance instead.

"Although my lifespan is short, with this person's accumulation, plus my own painstaking training, maybe I can really break the shackles. At that time, if I can harvest a martial artist who observes the sky, I can add another card to my hole card." .”

Of course, if Pei Wuju did anything wrong today, if he hesitated when taking out the iron box, or if the box was tampered with, what Ji Pingan would give would no longer be a gift, but a punishment.

"Look at it again, it is not a matter of a day to break through."

While thinking, Ji Pingan turned around a rock, and suddenly his eyes were attracted by two figures walking towards him.

To be precise, it was a woman in a plain skirt with a slender body, fine eyebrows and quiet eyes, who looked a little unhealed from her injuries, and beside her was an old woman holding an umbrella to shade her.

The woman's face is very pale, just like the whole person, weak like a thin white and soft water plant that rarely sees sunlight.

Walking gently at this moment, the sun seems to be shining brightly because of this, and it is clear that her appearance is not that kind of stunning woman, but coupled with that indescribable and familiar temperament, it is particularly eye-catching.

At the same time, Xu Yuanyun also noticed the man walking towards him.

Her black button-like pupils were briefly absent-minded, as if in a trance, as if she had traveled through time and saw a familiar... friend.

His heart suddenly pounded like a deer, but when he looked closely, he was disappointed to find that he was just a strange young man with a slightly calm temperament.

Whether it is Ji Pingan or Xu Yuanyun, in order to hide their true identities, they have deliberately changed some of their habits and behaviors, trying to make their true identities known to people who are not familiar with them.

And whether it is the Grand Master of the Zhou Dynasty or the master of the generation, they are undoubtedly the most amazing and talented group of people on this continent.

Smart enough that he can disguise himself very well, very well.

The two sides gradually approached, Ji Pingan slowly took a step to the right, and smiled to give way, Xu Yuanyun smiled back, counting it as a salute.

Passing by, the fragrance is blowing.

When the beautiful figure turned around the rockery and disappeared, Ji Pingan looked away, and casually asked the servant who led the way: "Which lady from the mansion is that just now?"

The Pei family is a big family, with all kinds of messy big and second families... The side relatives can fill a thick and large volume of genealogy.

Except for Pei Qiuwei, a talented woman who is famous in the south of the Yangtze River, Ji Pingan didn't pay attention to the rest of the mansion.

Hearing this, the servant gave an "en" and said, "That's Miss Mo Chou, Madam's niece."

As a family member of a great family, he didn't have the habit of gossiping, he only mentioned a simple sentence and didn't say much.

Ji Pingan said "Yes" and didn't ask any further questions. He met countless people every day, so of course he wouldn't pay attention to investigate when he saw a woman, not to mention that he was full of cases at the moment.

……

the other side.

"Girl?" The old woman holding the umbrella was keenly aware of the change in her girl's expression.

Xu Yuanyun regained his composure, smiled, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that... that is also the divination master who came to the mansion, but he didn't go with the previous group?"

The old woman shook her head and said, "We don't know, we can ask Madam later."

Xu Yuanyun thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No need, it's not an important matter after all."

She is under the roof, she always remembers etiquette, and knows that it is not appropriate to inquire about these things.

……

Outside the gate of Pei's mansion, a group of hexagram masters walked out, and the rest were only one step ahead of Ji Pingan, and immediately left in their carriages.

Ji Pingan didn't take the car, and also rejected the kindness sent by Mr. Pei. Instead, he walked a few steps, turned into a secluded alley, took out the Taoist scriptures from his arms, and shook them lightly.

Wearing a black robe and a pointed wizard hat, with a pale and dull face, Miss Qi Ling, like a large doll, was suspended in the air, looked at him dissatisfied, and said mechanically:
"From now on, without my permission, you are not allowed to put things in my body."

She meant the thick, hard iron box.

Ji Pingan readily agreed, and immediately made a request: "Help me hide my figure."

Jiang Jiang asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do again?"

Ms. Qi Ling has been a little unhappy recently. She feels that Ji Pingan didn't teach herself how to look at the world, but instead used herself as a tool.

Also, doing something sneaky every time.

Ji Pingan said: "Track the reborn."

Jiang Jiang also gave him a guess about "rebirth" and was very interested in it: "Do you have a new clue? Or the Four Sages?"

Ji Pingan shook his head and said, "Not sure."

Then urged: "Hurry up."

Reluctantly, Jiang Jiang raised his sallow finger and pointed at him. Both of them turned into a translucent state. Ji Pingan immediately held the "Mountain Scepter" and cast the "shrink the ground to an inch" spell.

Turning out of the alley, he quickly caught up with an extraordinarily magnificent carriage, which was exactly the carriage of Zhou Banxian who had just left Pei's mansion.
