Infinite Myth Counterattack

Chapter 404 Arriving in Luoyang
After Luo Changfeng and Shen Jianxin were full, they watched Hong Ji eat. He ate milk porridge with his left hand and mustard pancakes with his right.

A bowl of porridge was not finished, his senior brother came back, seeing Hong Ji sitting on the table eating porridge and cakes, walked over in surprise, and called, "Ah Ji."

Hong Ji looked back and saw that it was his senior brother, he quickly greeted him: "Senior brother, come and have breakfast."

Then he said to Luo Changfeng: "Brother Changfeng, this is my senior brother Wang Kunyang, he is a disciple of the five bags."

Five bags of disciples are already the highest level of beggar gang disciples. The status of the beggar gang is divided into nine levels. The first five are disciples, the last four are elders, and the six bags are elders. They can be the master of an altar. Bag elders can act as the helmsman.

The rudder manages one "Tao", and the altar controls one continent. There are also strongholds in various counties, and the person in charge of the strongholds is usually held by the Wubao disciples.

There are only four Nine Pocket Elder Beggar Gang, one is "Zhang Bo Long Tou", one is "Zhang Bang Long Tou", one is "Cheng Gong Elder", and one is "Law Enforcement Elder". Presbyterian.

The Council of Presbyterians usually maintains a number of 11 people, but it is similar to the parliament of later generations. The minority obeys the majority. Any decision can be implemented as long as more than six people agree, and it cannot be implemented if more than six people oppose it.

The administrative division of the Tang Dynasty adopted the three-level system of "Daozhou County", which is equivalent to the provinces, cities, districts and counties of later generations.

Yangzhou is actually a continent, not a city. This Yangzhou city should be called "Guangling" in this era. It belongs to the border city of Yangzhou on Huainan Road and is adjacent to Jiangnan East Road.

"Yellow Crane Tower Sends Meng Haoran to Guangling" is a poem written by Li Bai for Meng Haoran when he went to Guangling, Yangzhou. However, this world belongs to an overhead world, and Guangling is called Yangzhou, which is not unacceptable.

Luo Changfeng and Shen Jianxin took the initiative to stand up, and greeted Wang Kunyang with clasped fists, "Brother Wang."

Wang Kunyang returned a salute and said, "Hello, both of you, I haven't asked for advice yet."

Luo Changfeng said: "Here, Luo Changfeng, this is Shen Jianxin, from the Yuhang family. Brother Wang hasn't had breakfast yet, right? Why don't you sit down and have a bowl of porridge?"

Wang Kunyang smiled and said: "Thank you Brother Luo for your kindness, but there is no need, I have already eaten."

Luo Changfeng didn't force it, and chatted a few words casually. After Hong Ji finished eating and Shen Jianxin paid the bill, they said they cherished each other and went their own way.

Shen Jianxin said to Luo Changfeng: "Brother, what shall we do next?"

Luo Changfeng thought for a while, and said: "Stay in Yangzhou tonight, rest for a night, and go to the pier tomorrow to charter a boat. Taking a boat is more convenient and easier for you to practice. Let's rush to Huayin County first. Huayin County is waiting for the ten-year arrival of Chunyang Palace."

Shen Jianxin had no objection, Luo Changfeng thought of him everywhere, he was only grateful.

……

The so-called money can turn ghosts, every time Luo Changfeng enters the world of reincarnation, he will carry a few catties of gold and silver with him.

A catty is 16 taels, but in fact, a tael in the Tang and Song Dynasties is not 50 grams, and 16 taels is not 800 grams, only 596.82 grams, so a few catties of gold and silver are not actually heavy, but their value is not low.

Luo Changfeng had one catty of silver and three catties of gold. In this day and age, an ordinary family of three would spend more than a catty of rice in their lifetime. After all, one money can buy more than one catty of rice.

Chartering a two-sailing boat, plus food and beverage supplies, is only five guan, that is, six taels of silver.

Taking a boat is indeed much easier and more comfortable than taking a carriage or riding a horse, but the speed is inevitably slower, but it is still acceptable.

There is no wind at this time of year, and the journey from Yangzhou to Luoyang is upstream, basically relying on penny punting, and the water in the canal is not too deep, and some places have to be stretched, so the speed is naturally not fast.

What's more, the canal's waterway is limited, but there are many ships, and the grain transport boats are constantly running all year round. In addition, various official and private ships often block the river.

As a result, it only took six or seven days to ride a horse, and only ten days to ride a horse-drawn carriage, and it took more than a month to walk.

Fortunately, Luo Changfeng and the others were not in a hurry, and they could afford it for more than a month. The key point was that taking a boat was safer, less bumpy, and much easier.

The back half of the ship is a cabin with a roof, and they can go back to the cabin to meditate and practice when the time comes. Luo Changfeng teaches Shen Jianxin how to practice swords on the deck when there is no need to practice.

He was not afraid of the boatmen stealing lessons, if they could learn his martial arts so easily, then they would not become boatmen.

There are seven boatmen and boat bosses, all of whom are in their twenties and thirties. They are all dark-skinned and exposed to the sun all the year round, making them look a few years older than their actual age.

They used to pick up some goods on weekdays. After the ship was full of goods, the draft was deeper and it was more difficult to move. Just pulling fiber was exhausting, and it took more than two months to travel.

And Luo Changfeng and the others chartered a boat for just two people, so it was naturally much easier. Many places that needed to be stretched in the past can now be directly covered, saving a lot of time.

So this trip was very pleasant, and they also respected the two "Gods" Luo Changfeng and Shen Jianxin very much.

Forty days later, they arrived in Luoyang smoothly. As the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty, Luoyang City is naturally more magnificent than Yangzhou. The city wall alone is as high as ten or twenty feet, which is five to sixty meters.

The city walls in the normal historical world are only about three feet high. The most common is the two-foot-high city wall. The highest known city wall is nearly six feet high. It is the ancient city wall of Nanjing, and it will not be until a thousand years later Ming Dynasty.

But after all, this is the world of high-level martial arts. For any martial arts master, if the height of a column cannot exceed five feet, he is ashamed to call it light work. The normal height of the city wall will not be able to defend at all.

Just like Luo Changfeng, his skill of nearly a hundred years can go straight up to nearly ten feet in a single stroke. This is because his true energy is not concentrated enough, which can be imagined by an expert in this world.

The two disembarked at the pier outside the city. After paying the fare, they bid farewell to the boat boss and all the boatmen, and went straight into Luoyang City.

After practicing on the boat for more than a month, Shen Jianxin had developed a weak internal force in his body, there was no way to practice internal force, unless he got some natural treasures or others passed on his skills, otherwise there was no shortcut.

No matter how high your aptitude is, you still have to accumulate it bit by bit, as much as you practice. At most, your aptitude is higher, and the inner strength you improve every time you practice is stronger than others.

But that kind of strength is a long-term advantage that has been piled up into a tower, but nothing can be seen in a short period of time.

However, in terms of swordsmanship, Shen Jianxin's progress is very good, his aptitude and understanding are not inferior to A Fei's, and even slightly higher.

After all, the aura of heaven and earth in this world is relatively stronger, and Shen Jianxin's living environment is much better than that of A Fei. Luo Changfeng estimates that when the ten-year period of Chunyang Palace comes, he will be able to learn all the Changfeng swordsmanship.

Changfeng swordsmanship includes swordsmanship, footwork, and bodywork, and Changfeng swordsmanship does not need to comprehend the unity of heaven and man, it can automatically arouse the blessing of heaven and earth aura when it is performed.

With such strength and foundation, Shen Jianxin should be fine. As for other aspects, he still has to rely on himself.
