"It's really arrogant."
Xue Wangxu drank with a half-smile.
"But it's also very courageous."
Then he said with some emotion: "I remember that person also said the same thing."
Ding Ning's eyes flashed, he thought for a while, and said, "I want to hear your evaluation about that person."
"It seems that although you are young, you have heard the story of that person." Xue Wangxu's face became serious, he looked at Ding Ning, and said seriously: "When His Majesty ascended the throne, someone also came to ask how When evaluating that person, I replied, I cannot evaluate that person, because I am not qualified to evaluate that person. And I will not evaluate that person to anyone, because I know that His Majesty is wise and powerful, and His Majesty can turn the Great Qin Dynasty into To be more powerful, all the cultivation sects in Changling need a more powerful Great Qin Dynasty to be able to live and work in this world."
"To this day, everything has become a story." Xue Wangxu said slowly: "So I still won't comment on these old stories in front of you. In addition to the above reasons, I don't want to give up because of my emotions. And thoughts affect you. After all, you have to walk a long way in Changling, and walk with some special emotions... This road will be more difficult."
The sound of people outside the carriage grew louder.
Ding Ning lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and saw more and more pedestrians on the road, some were vendors pushing small carts, and some were obviously visiting relatives and friends through this temple fair, they all put on Brand new clothes, and some people are obviously devout believers, carrying many offerings to the gods and Buddhas.
"I remember reading in a book that there are several major realms in practice. The first is to see mountains and rivers, then to see heaven and earth, to see oneself, and then to see sentient beings."
Ding Ning looked at the passers-by and said softly, "If you want to cultivate to a very high level, you must be able to see others, but not be influenced by others. Do you think this argument makes sense?"
Xue Wangxu was startled, his brows furrowed deeply, and after more than ten breaths of thought, he asked solemnly: "What book are you reading?"
Ding Ning shook his head, "I forgot, it seems to be a picture album and story book."
"It seems to make sense." Xue Wangxu still frowned deeply, pondered for a moment, but then sighed softly, "It's a pity that even if I heard such a statement a few years ago, I haven't entered the seventh realm, nor can I There may be some special feelings, but now, I don't seem to have enough time to figure out and confirm whether it coincides with the true meaning."
…
Along the official road, through a natural canyon, the fields in front of the carriage are criss-crossed, the streams and rivers are gentle, and the farmland is gradually scarce, but there are more and more courtyards.
"Password!"
With a low shout on the Daoka, it officially entered the boundary of Zhushan County.
"People from Changling?"
Several sergeants who inspected as usual were obviously taken aback when they saw Ding Ning and Xue Wangxu's passing documents, and then they were taken aback when they saw Xue Wangxu's birth date and the identity of Baiyangdong. shock.
The leading sergeant quickly let them go without even asking a word.
However, they had just entered Zhushan County, and had just found an inn with a room. Before they finished drinking a pot of hot tea, a steward wearing a blue brocade robe appeared in front of them.
The middle-aged steward with a pale face saluted Xue Wangxu and Ding Ning who were casually sitting in the corner of the inn lobby, and said very respectfully: "The villain Feng Futang is the steward of the Feng family. Lost and welcome."
It was just that they accepted the routine inspection of the passing documents on the road outside the city, and the people of the Feng family knew of their arrival so quickly, and they responded so quickly, which is enough to prove how powerful the Feng family is in Zhushan County. However, Xue Wang Xu just smiled slightly indifferently, and said: "My relationship with your Feng family is not very good, why bother to be polite."
"Cave Master Xue has a noble status, and the Feng family, as landlords, naturally want to show their friendship." Feng Futang's face did not change, and he said very humbly: "This inn is really ordinary, if Dong Master Xue doesn't dislike it, the villain A secluded courtyard can be arranged for Cave Master Xue."
Xue Wangxu smiled slightly, and said: "That's not necessary, no matter how bad the inn is, it's much more comfortable than my small stone temple."
Feng Futang still said humbly: "I don't know why Cave Master Xue passed through Zhushan County, if there is..."
Xue Wangxu took a sip of his tea, and directly interrupted his polite words: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, I just took the students on a tour, went deep into Bashan to practice, happened to pass through Zhushan County, and left at noon tomorrow."
Feng Futang's voice was more modest: "Tomorrow happens to be the temple fair here to worship the Kitchen God, and it is very lively, and because our Feng family has been cared for by His Royal Highness the Queen a few days ago, and has given a pair of calligraphy and paintings. Dongzhu Xue is very knowledgeable, so he must know the Queen's words. Your Highness is not only a master of calligraphy and painting, but also a great practitioner who is proficient in Talisman and Dao. Her brushwork implies the method of cultivation, and the movement of the vitality of heaven and earth is mysterious. Tomorrow, the calligraphy and painting will be enshrined in the newly built Huode Hall. I wonder if Cave Master Xue is interested in taking a look?"
Xue Wangxu frowned slightly, looked at Feng Futang and said: "Guan Feng's language skills are very high... I have seen many stewards of those noble families in Changling, but few of them have the level of Guanshi Feng."
Feng Futang's face was slightly stiff, but his voice was still extremely polite: "Cave Master Xue really loves you."
"Don't worry." Xue Wangxu said flatly: "How can I not understand that Her Highness the Empress loves the Feng family so much, but I'm really in a hurry, and I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in such a grand event."
Feng Futang's brows are slightly loose.
Xue Wangxu waved his hand tiredly, and said softly, "I like to be quiet."
"The villain understands."
Feng Futang said no more, bowed and retreated.
"It's really hypocritical." Ding Ning, who watched Feng Futang's disappearing back and listened carefully to the whole conversation, said softly.
Xue Wangxu glared at him, "You think I'm still in charge?"
Ding Ning chuckled, "It's almost the same."
But Xue Wangxu became serious, frowned and said worriedly: "The Feng family may have heard that I have reached the seventh realm with such an attitude, do you think Feng Qianzhuo will be afraid of this, and directly refine the face-fixing pearl overnight? melted?"
"I don't think so." Ding Ning glanced at him and said calmly, "If so, he wouldn't need to send such a steward to use the name of the queen to suppress you. If a person feels that moving out of the queen's Fame is enough to scare you, he is not afraid at all, it is just a threat."
Xue Wangxu let go of his worries, and smiled coldly, "You're right, this manager is far from being humble, it's clearly just a threat."
…
Feng Futang got into the carriage with the seal of the Feng family, and under the eager and respectful eyes of many passers-by along the way, he headed towards some secluded courtyards in the distance.
Those courtyards occupy a huge area, and they are all gray walls and black tiles. They are obviously in the style of Changling buildings, which are very different from the usual mud-walled bamboo buildings in Zhushan County.
When the carriage stopped in front of the vermilion lacquered gate of a courtyard, Feng Futang got off the carriage.
This seemingly humble steward, at this moment, is unusually tall and straight, with a blade-like coldness flowing from his body, and his originally generous face has become extremely cold.
Two servants opened the vermilion lacquer gate, and on the stone path behind the vermilion lacquer gate, there was a young man in brocade clothes who looked about the same age as Ding Ning was waiting.
This young man has a handsome face, but with his hands behind his back, he looks old and gloomy, like a young eagle that is about to pounce on someone at any time.
"how?"
He looked at Feng Futang and asked with natural arrogance and sneer.
Feng Futang slightly bowed and saluted, and said: "Xue Wangxu kept saying that he was just passing by, but I can't tell the truth, so I always have to be more careful."
"If he is really just passing by, my Feng family can naturally treat each other with courtesy. For the sake of his cultivation, maybe we can give him some convenience."
The lonely and cold boy sneered and said, "But if he wants to trouble my grandfather tomorrow, I will make him pay a heavier price."
After a slight pause, looking at Feng Futang who was convinced, the young man continued to ask: "Didn't Xue Wangxu also bring a young man named Ding Ning with him? What do you think?"
Feng Futang pondered and said: "I only found out about Xue Wangxu's arrival today. Regarding the identity of this young man, it is too late to get the exact information from Changling in a day or two. It is only confirmed that he is a cultivator and has not yet reached the Real Yuan Realm. Judging from the way Xue Wangxu looked at him, he should be the outstanding student he had hoped for, most likely his closed disciple."
The boy narrowed his eyes with a smile.
"Since this is the case, Ruo Xue Wangxu had better not have any special thoughts tomorrow, otherwise I will first abolish him as a proud disciple."
His face was handsome and childish, but the more he was like this, the more gloomy and cold the words were spoken from his mouth at this time.
He is Feng Qinghan, Feng Qianzhuo's only grandson until now.
Feng Qianzhuo had three sons, but the three sons were not very up-to-date and gave birth to a bunch of granddaughters. Only the youngest son, Feng Qingling, gave birth to such a son.
It's just that Feng Qinghan is very competitive.
Half a year ago, he had officially stepped into the True Yuan Realm, and he was already at the lower level of the True Yuan Realm.
Judging by his age, even in Changling, he is already very prominent.
