Diji Cultivation Manual

Liu Chunian's complexion instantly became very exciting.

If it was said that the gloomy look on her face when she heard the "deficiency syndrome" from the store earlier seemed like the sky was about to rain, but now it is pouring down with torrential rain, which is really rare.

What Nan Qiao said was easy to understand. The first thing naturally pointed out the snow disaster in Longyou that she was worried about implicitly, and the second thing was more straightforward, which made Liu Chunian almost blush in front of the store. .

"I'm a traitor..." Liu Chunian gritted his teeth, barely holding back a smile.

The shopkeeper couldn't help but stand up straight after a while, and said with emotion: "This is really a coincidence. I never thought that I would meet you master and apprentice one after another."

Liu Chunian didn't expect such a coincidence to happen, so he showed some helplessness: "I made you laugh, I don't know what she said yesterday, but I have to settle this account with her carefully."

"Speaking of which, I think she is also infatuated." The storekeeper poured a glass of wine on his own, played with the wine glass in his hand, and sighed, "She said that her master is a master in the mountains and a fairyland in the world, which made her feel distracted but still has nothing to do with it." You can't get your hands on it. There's nothing to say about it, after all, there are so many infatuated people in the world, and how many of them can achieve true results?"

"Yesterday I kept thinking about what kind of woman is worthy of her affection. Now that I see you, girl, I feel that I am worthy of her concern."

Liu Chunian crossed his fingers and leaned on the counter. Hearing her praise, he didn't feel happy: "In my opinion, my apprentice is worthy of anyone, but I'm not worthy of her. It's just a word of love, which has always been It’s hard to tell, who can tell the difference? You said you often release others here, but I really want to know how you release others?”

Hearing what she said, the shopkeeper put down the white porcelain cup in his hand, met her gaze thoughtfully, shook his head after a while and said, "You can think so clearly, but I'm a fool. Actually, those who really fell into How can a man who is emotionally obsessed with resentment be able to listen to the advice of others? I know this too, but I am just pointing out a few words to see if they can come to their senses."

"Just like yesterday, I advise you to stop immediately." The shopkeeper probably felt that he was a little unkind, and looked away slightly, "Girl, don't blame me for bad things, it's just that yesterday I saw that you were really in pain, so That's why I came up with this bad plan. Loving someone should be the most enjoyable thing in the world, but if you have tossed and turned for it, why bother to force it?"

"Is she in pain?" Liu Chunian frowned inadvertently, and lowered his eyes slightly, "There is nothing wrong with what you said, so of course I won't blame you. If you really can relieve her and let her out of the predicament , I thank you before it's too late."

The innkeeper shook his head, drank the wine in the glass, and then sighed: "It's just that I have changed my mind now. If I were to persuade you again at this time, I would definitely change my rhetoric. Master and apprentice are back in Beijing, please come and sit with me again, I need to persuade you again. So now, let me tell you what I think of you, girl?"

Liu Chunian nodded, and took the wine handed by the store: "All ears."

"In my opinion, you are not completely ruthless towards her, on the contrary, you are a little self-deceiving." The shopkeeper looked directly into her eyes, as if trying to see through her heart, "You can see everything well A thorough person, so if you can't guarantee the result of something, you won't do it. In other words, you resist all things that are out of your control, and your disciple's feelings for you are one of them. Rong I dared to make a guess, I'm afraid the girl is someone who has been in a high position all the year round."

After listening to her analysis, Liu Chunian finally put away her ramblings and watched how she planned to continue.

"Of course you have your reasons for doing this, and it's inconvenient for me to speculate. It's just that you don't think this is too unfair to the nobleman. She has never done anything to betray you, but she has to bear your suspicion and responsibility." Suspicious." The shopkeeper shook his head, obviously disapproving of her behavior, "Besides, the world is inherently impermanent, and no one dares to understand it lightly. Girl, what you are pursuing is unrealistic."

"You're right." Liu Chunian nodded calmly, but obviously he wasn't too moved.

The store owner was a little bit dumbfounded, choking on her reticent attitude.

"You know everything, but you can't do it. Forget it, I can't persuade you when I meet someone like you. I can only hope that your little apprentice will be wiped out as soon as possible, or turn around." The shopkeeper Qingzhi couldn't persuade her, so he She was a little uninterested, but when she was about to leave, she still called her, "How many people in this world want to be together but can't ask for it, girls should cherish the blessings, don't wait until you are the only one left in the future, then you will be together." Too late to regret."

The suspicion in Liu Chunian's temperament was planted over the years. Nan Qiao had done a lot but she couldn't get rid of it completely. How could she change her mind based on just a few words from the person in front of her?She was just bored and looked at the woman in Tsing Yi more pleasing to the eye, so she chatted with her for a few words.

It's just that it's not nothing, at least it made her want to deal with Nan Qiao more and more.

But at the same time, she had a headache, and she didn't know how to treat Nan Qiao.

If it were someone else, she would have been completely alienated long ago, out of sight and out of mind.However, Nan Qiao is different from others, she can't be close and can't be close, and she can't be far away, which really makes it difficult for her.

She also asked herself why she couldn't accept Nan Qiao?

But there were too many differences between the two. She didn't want Nan Qiao to be wronged and accommodate her, and she didn't want to change a little for Nan Qiao. After all, it was unacceptable.

It seems to be dawn outside the window, but it may also be the light reflected by the white snow.Only then did she realize that she had been tossing and turning for a long time without knowing it, unable to sleep peacefully.Thinking that there is still a long way to go in the daytime, she no longer dared to think wildly, so she had to force herself to calm down and close her eyes to rest.

After a hurried breakfast early in the morning, she was about to leave again.

The shopkeeper was still standing behind the counter in Tsing Yi, said goodbye to her with a smile, took a plum blossom that looked like he had just folded it, and threw it into her arms: "Girl, there are flowers that can be folded straight away, don't worry." Wait until there are no flowers."

There is also white snow on the red plums, and the two complement each other, which looks very beautiful.

Liu Chunian understood the meaning of her words, although he was a little dumbfounded, he still held the plum blossom and bent his eyes: "Thank you for the beauty, we will see you soon."

After leaving that inn, there was nothing interesting along the way, but it was just a hurry.

It wasn't for any reason, most of the places she chose to stay were in line with Nan Qiao, and there was always a day's difference between the two of them, and they rushed slowly.

Liu Chunian also tried to ask those shopkeepers about Nan Qiao, but all he got were some regular answers, nothing more novel than that day.Most of the shopkeepers opened their shops to make some money, and those like the woman in Tsing Yi were a minority after all.

The only thing worth mentioning is that her traitor smashed a shop.

That day she hurried to a small town to complain, but she heard that the biggest inn was smashed down yesterday, so she had to find a small inn to live in instead.Later, I asked someone casually, saying that yesterday a woman brought her attendants to complain there, but for some reason she broke up the inn with a disagreement, and tied the boss to the official.

She can trust Nan Qiao's character. It's always because the boss has done something that Nan Qiao can't see, that's why this happened.But if she wanted to ask again, no one would know, so she had no choice but to suppress her curiosity and wait until she saw Nan Qiao when she got back.

Long-distance running is definitely the most energy-consuming thing. It is very boring. When the road conditions are bad, it can almost shake the skeleton of the whole person.

In the past few years, Liu Chunian had seldom rushed on the road in such a hurry. Suddenly, he suffered such a toss under the condition of losing his body, almost costing half his life, and all kinds of symptoms of backache and back pain appeared.

When she reached the border of Longyou, Liu Chunian finally breathed a sigh of relief, but as the carriages and horses drove into Longyou, her heart became more and more heavy.

The weather in Longyou is almost like freezing water, and because of other reasons, Lu You's frozen bones are no longer words that only appear in history books.Even though she had seen countless bloody scenes, she was still shocked by the miserable appearance in front of her eyes.

She didn't dare to imagine how Nan Qiao would react - those royal family members who don't know the sufferings of the people, even if they are proficient in conspiracy, may not be able to face the hell-like tragedy in front of them.

Liu Chunian put down the car curtain, and couldn't bear to look at it any more.Her heart is like a rock, and she is not afraid of swords, spears and halberds, but the scene in front of her is more piercing than the sharpest sleeve sword in the world.

Bao Hong threw the overcoat to keep out the cold into the carriage, and explained: "I'm afraid there will be many victims of disasters on the road. We can't reveal our wealth, or we may cause accidents."

"I know, I'll trouble you to be tired." Liu Chunian took her cloak and slowly folded it up.

What Bao Hong said was indeed true. Although these disaster victims were very pitiful, they had to be on guard.They are desperate people, what else can't be done?Changing children to eat, I am afraid that it is no longer a shocking rumor here.

In the early years, there was a widely circulated incident in the state of Jin.

At that time, the southern border of the Jin Kingdom was plagued by locusts, and there was no harvest. At that time, it also looked like a hell on earth.There was a very old rich man in the middle of the capital. After hearing about it, he ordered his servants to take out the accumulated grain and escorted him there.She originally wanted to help the victims out of good intentions, but because she didn't trust the government, she escorted the batch of grain in person regardless of the fatigue of the boat.

But this is where things went wrong. Without the escort from the government, they were like wolves entering the mouth of a tiger. As soon as they entered the southern border, they were robbed of all their food by the victims.During the scramble, the victims even started fighting, resulting in casualties. In the end, all the food was robbed, and the victims actually took away their valuables, hairpin rings and other things.The rich man never expected that his good intentions would be trampled on in this way, and he was so angry that he died on the spot.

When this incident spread to Beijing, those rich merchants who had had such sympathy in the past felt sad for the death of a rabbit and a fox, and refused to lend food to the government for disaster relief to treat the gang of "troublemakers".It took Liu Chunian a lot of effort to get around, so he was quite impressed.

Even now, she doesn't know who is at fault.After all, it is probably true that the world is not benevolent, and all things are regarded as dogs.

After many years, she actually saw these situations again. In a trance, she could vividly remember the tragic situation in the southern border.

Liu Chunian felt a heavy weight in his heart, as if a thousand catties of boulder had been crushed on him again.

"Stop!" Bao Hong suddenly reined in the horse and stopped.

Liu Chunian opened the curtain of the car with some doubts, and looked out of the car.

A sallow-faced and thin woman stood aside somewhat at a loss. She could almost be considered skinny and skinny, with slightly sunken eye sockets, like a lonely ghost.

Bao Hong first turned around to plead guilty to Liu Chunian, then jumped off the carriage and picked up the child who was lying on the ground, questioning the woman: "In such weather, you abandoned her here, wouldn't you want her to freeze to death here? "

The woman glanced at Bao Hong at a loss, her eyes touched the child in her arms, and then she avoided it, leaving two lines of tears in her eyes.

"If I don't know where I died, how can I save her?" The woman was silent for a long time, and smiled sadly, "The world is like this, what do you want me to do? Do you want me to die with her in my arms? Or change hands with others?" And eat?"

Bao Hong also froze in place, her hand holding the child slightly tightened.

Liu Chunian sighed, and lowered his eyes: "If I haven't seen it, then it's fine. Since I saw it, I can't let your mother and daughter freeze to death here. Get in the car, I'll ask you something If you tell the truth about the matter, I will give your mother and daughter a way out."

The woman looked at her in disbelief, and when she realized it, she immediately snatched the child from Bao Hong's arms, and was about to stuff it into the carriage, as if she was afraid that the child would freeze to death.

Liu Chunian saw her behavior in his eyes, sighed a little weakly, and reached out to support her.

Bao Hong drove the car forward again, the woman held the child tightly in her arms, and she couldn't stop crying for the rest of her life.

Liu Chunian handed the clothes prepared in the car to the woman, and motioned her to put them on to keep warm.

The woman was flattered, but after a moment of hesitation, she still took the clothes and put them on, wrapping the cloak around her daughter.

"Why are you wandering here, why don't you stay at home?" Liu Chunian watched her trembling body gradually slow down, and asked slowly.

The woman held back her tears: "During the autumn harvest, I encountered a locust plague, and the harvest was very sluggish. Later, in winter, the locusts finally disappeared, but there was heavy snow again. My husband was killed by a wild animal when he went hunting in the mountains. I just I was able to bring my daughter who was under one year old to join my relatives and friends. But who would have thought that he would be locked up in prison by the government because of corvee, and the whole family would be dead and scattered. They can't take care of themselves, how can they take care of me? I have nothing to do , that's all."

Locust plagues, corvees, snow disasters...

Picking out any of them at random is a major event, but the people in Longyou have suffered so much, and Jingzhong doesn't know anything about it.It seems that Longyou's deceitful deception by officials and officials to protect each other seems to be no small matter, and what Nan Qiao wants to gnaw is a hard bone.

Liu Chunian frowned and thought for a moment, only to feel that there were thousands of thoughts in his heart, but he didn't know how to speak.

"Rest first, rest your mind, and I will ask you again if there is anything else to do." Liu Chunian leaned on the carriage with his eyes closed, with a look of tiredness that could not be concealed on his face.

The woman looked at Liu Chunian carefully, and seeing that she had no intention of driving away their mother and child, she finally felt relieved and looked at her daughter silently and weeping.

She thought that she had reached the end of the road, so she abandoned her daughter, which meant that all thoughts were lost.Liu Chunian's appearance gave her hope and finally restored her nature as a mother. Now that she is holding her little daughter, she can't even understand what she was thinking just now, how could she have the heart to do such a thing? matter.

However, this calm did not last long.

"Girl!" Bao Hong's tone this time was full of solemnity and unknowing panic, "There are disaster victims surrounding me!"

Liu Chunian suddenly opened his eyes.

She can already guess what's going on outside the car without opening the curtains—the thing she's most worried about is still here.

If she can't handle it properly this time, then she is afraid that she will follow in the footsteps of the rich man from Jin many years ago.It is true that she is a heartless person and has no hope for these victims. Naturally, she will not be so angry that she was raped because of her passion and died on the spot, but I am afraid that she will inevitably suffer. In a round of exploitation, how many things can be left in the end is purely luck.

"Don't panic." Liu Chunian said calmly, her expression calm, she turned to look at the mother and daughter curled up in the corner of the carriage, "No matter what happens, don't make a sound, don't let them find out your existence."

"I can persuade them, I can tell them that you are a good person..."

Liu Chunian interrupted the woman's words, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile, and whispered: "You still don't know about them, they are already crazy. They won't care that you are a disaster victim like them, but will be jealous You got my help... All in all, if you don't want to cause trouble, just stay here honestly, and I will take care of it."

Although she said so in her mouth, she didn't have much confidence in her heart.

These disaster victims are already in a desperate situation, and they can't listen to any advice or entreaties. No matter how eloquent you are, there may not be room for display.

Liu Chunian pinched his own with the hand hidden under his sleeve, untied the fox fur and threw it in the corner of the car, slightly lifted the curtain and jumped out.

What caught my eye was a group of victims in shabby clothes. They looked at the car surrounded by them either directly or implicitly, with greed that could not be concealed in their eyes, as if wolves who had been hungry for a long time finally saw The prey that came to your door.

They didn't say a word, they just looked at Liu Chunian fixedly, and approached her silently.

"Everyone, please listen to me..." Liu Chunian put on a weak look, brewing some crying, and lying out of his mouth.
