Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Chapter 186 New South Road, Fangzhou City, Su’s daughter

The Tang Dynasty prospered for thousands of years.

Since the rise of Emperor Taizu in Zhongdu, the Tang Dynasty has been located in the eastern continent.

Generations of ancestors worked hard to achieve this behemoth.

The centipede is still dead but not stiff, not to mention that in the Tang Dynasty, it is the time when flowers are blooming and the fire is cooking.

Jiang Sheng also wanted to take this opportunity to see with his own eyes this huge dynasty that lasted ten thousand years and the prosperity of the Humane Holy Tang Dynasty.

The distance from Lucheng in Yu State to Xinnan Road, which is now actually controlled by Datang, is no less than five thousand miles.

In this entire five thousand-mile area, what Jiang Sheng saw the most were the destroyed towns and the large numbers of mortals flocking to the New South Road of the Tang Dynasty.

Those mortals were dragging their families, carrying luggage, and pushing carts, and they couldn't even see the end.

Their clothes were in rags, and most of them were already skinny. Some people kept falling behind along the way, but no one paid attention to their life and death.

Mortals are the most important resource, how could the coalition not know that.

"But their king and nobles don't need them anymore."

"Before, they would kneel on the ground in fear, praying for their lives."

Ouyang Chun looked at Jiang Sheng's silence and couldn't help but ask: "Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen, what are you thinking about?"

Ouyang Chun explained: "Yes, but not entirely."

The coalition forces have been defeated one after another and do not have enough resources anymore. In addition, there is still internal intrigue. It is not easy to take care of the existing monks. How can they take care of the mortals.

But now that the Tang Dynasty is in deep trouble, Jiang Sheng knows very well that the Tang Dynasty has reached its final moment of prosperity.

Because Datang is now constantly winning and acquiring new land and resources.

When two auspicious clouds flew over the heads of these mortals, these people were indifferent, as if they were used to it.

The huge dynasty, the wealthy and aristocratic families that have developed from generation to generation, how many talented people are attached to the Tang tree, and how many loyal ministers and righteous people follow the Tang Dynasty?
Even if we encounter a generation of foolish kings, it is impossible for the ten thousand-year-old foundation of the Tang Dynasty to be completely destroyed in a hundred years.

Even Ouyang Chun, who seemed to be compassionate and compassionate, just lamented how difficult it was for the people to survive.

Not to mention the golden elixir, the Taoist priest of Zifu can live for five hundred years.

Otherwise, the more prosperous the luck, the greater the price will be in the end.

Seeing that Jiang Sheng seemed used to it, Ouyang Chun smiled again and said, "Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen, do you know why they are heading north instead of south?"

The two of them continued to head north. They didn't care much about the stretching survival team below.

A glint flashed in Jiang Sheng's eyes.

The Tang Dynasty had a vast land and rich resources, and the imperial government reached all directions. There was no shortage of resources to support them.

People often fall dead on the roadside while walking. The grass on both sides of the road is full of corpses, mostly old, weak, women and children.

Ouyang Chun sighed and said no more.

What a great idea.

This method not only reduced the losses of the Tang army, but also eliminated some hidden dangers, and even gained the support of the people.

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "I just feel that the Tang Dynasty can still retain a trace of benevolence and righteousness at this time."

"In Xinnan Road in the Tang Dynasty, they can have food, a place to live, and work to survive. Only in the Tang Dynasty do they have a way to survive."

Not only the young children, but also the young adults are the best sources of soldiers.

After all, there are thousands of miles along the way, and anyone who can reach the border of Datang is a bit lucky.

"Actually, many of the refugees here are from nearby countries."

Listening to the conversation between the two, the boy asked again: "Immortal, then my sister and I went to the Tang Dynasty, can we also work to survive?"

Jiang Sheng thought and gained some new understanding of the power of the Tang Dynasty.

Ouyang Chun is the Jindan Zhenren, a practitioner who has initially sublimated his body and has lived for hundreds of years.

Ouyang Chun explained to Jiang Sheng, and Jiang Sheng nodded slightly in approval.

The Tang Dynasty needed a lot of manpower for its conquests, and these were helpless or displaced people. With a little training, they could do many things.

The best thing is that this is a conspiracy.

"If you have some qualifications for cultivation, you can enter the Taoist Palace and the Martial Arts Garden. In the future, you will not only have enough food and clothing, but also live a good life."

Does the coalition not want these people?

And if even one out of a hundred of these young children has a talent for cultivation, then Datang will still make money.

The Tang Dynasty picked up these helpless young children and began to train them. Then what will they remember when they grow up?
I will only remember the goodness of Datang and serve Datang.

If you don't go to the Tang Dynasty, you will either be affected by the war or be captured by evil cultivators. Besides the Tang Dynasty, there is no force that can feed so many people at one go.

The more flowers bloom, the more you have to recognize yourself and whether you have the strength to suppress this luck.

Jiang Sheng thought deeply: "I guess that the Tang Dynasty has some measures to accommodate them?"

Ouyang Chun stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Hahahaha, you two can go to the almshouse. In the almshouse, you will have clothes, food, and food, and you can also read and write."

"Later, when they saw more of them, they were no longer afraid, because they knew that Datang would not kill them."

There is a huge difference in status and experience between the Taoist priests of the Zi Mansion and ordinary people, not to mention that ordinary people only have a lifespan of less than a hundred years.

It is compassionate enough for a high-ranking monk to sigh and say that it is not easy for mortals.

The boy seemed to realize this, so he didn't say anything during the whole process, let alone asking the immortal to save the poor people below.

This made Jiang Sheng take another look at the boy.

The distance of five thousand miles was not far away for the two Jindan masters. Not long after, the New South Road of the Tang Dynasty appeared in front of them.

When I first arrived at Xinnan Road, except for the passes, everything was very shabby.

Whether it is a city or a village, they all seem to have been built on top of the original tatters.

But five thousand miles into the New South Road, when you reach the core of the New South Road, everything is completely different.

Xinnan Road, Fangzhou City.

The tall and majestic city walls, the flat and wide official roads, the bustling city gate, the passers-by wearing various costumes, and the stacked pavilions and pavilions in the city
The world of humanity is full of energy and prosperity.

"When I saw this city, I finally felt a bit like the Tang Dynasty." Jiang Sheng said.

Ouyang Chun laughed and said, "Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen, that's because you haven't been to other places before."

"This is just New South Road. If you go to Jiannan Road, it will be an eye-opener for you."

"And if you go to Jiangnan Road and Jianghuai Road, you can truly see the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty. And these are only a few million miles away, and they are just a corner of the Tang Dynasty."

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng also smiled and said: "The greatness of the Tang Dynasty is astonishing."

The two chatted and slowly entered the city through the gate dedicated to monks.

As soon as you enter the city, you are greeted by the noise.

The endless flow of people, all kinds of monks, and some strange figures are nothing strange in this city.

This Fangzhou city has a population of more than ten million.

A large city of this size is placed among the seven countries on the coast of the East China Sea. It is a prosperous and fertile place comparable to the capital. The seven countries on the East China Sea add up to less than twenty or thirty.

But in the Tang Dynasty, there were as many as two hands or more in such an anointed city in a country.

A glance at the writings reveals the breadth and strength of the Tang Dynasty. "Where does fellow Taoist Yuan Chen plan to go?" Ouyang Chun asked.

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "I plan to find a place to live temporarily, but I haven't thought much about it yet."

Ouyang Chun took the opportunity to say: "Fellow Taoist Yuan Chen and I hit it off right away. How about staying at my place first?"

Jiang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Then, it's better to obey orders than to be respectful."

The two chatted and laughed, walking towards the inner city of Fangzhou City.

Two little dolls followed the two of them, looking around.

When I saw the various snacks, fruits, fish and meat, it was okay, but when I saw the monsters and beasts in cages selling goods, and the huge monsters pulling carts and carrying goods, my eyes widened with fear.

The deeper you go into Fangzhou City, the more you can see some practitioners wearing strange beasts and dignitaries sitting in luxurious carriages.

The gap between the inner city and the outer city of Fangzhou City is the gap between monks and mortals.

After entering the inner city, Ouyang Chun took Jiang Sheng to a large mansion.

As a master of the Tang Dynasty, Jin Dan, it is not too much to own a luxurious mansion.

When the servant at the door saw Ouyang Chun, he quickly came forward and said, "Master, you are back."

"Go and tell Madam that a distinguished guest is coming to the house. Prepare the banquet quickly."

"Take these two little babies down and get settled."

After Ouyang Chun finished his instructions, he personally took Jiang Sheng to an elegant villa and asked Jiang Sheng to stay temporarily.

The attitude shown by Ouyang Chun throughout the whole process can be said to be a breath of fresh air and extremely comfortable.

The more this happened, the more vigilant Jiang Sheng became.

When we first met, he was so enthusiastic about himself.

Are all the real people in the Tang Dynasty so hospitable?
Or does Ouyang Chun have other plans?
So what is his plot?
After all, Jiang Sheng right now is just an old and early-stage Jindan cultivator.

Not long after Ouyang Chun left, several maids came and prepared hot water and a change of clothes for Jiang Sheng.

"The real person has been working hard all the way. The master of the family ordered me to wait on the real person to change his clothes and relieve his fatigue."

Looking at these pretty and lovely maids, Jiang Sheng blinked and then smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist Ouyang is interested."

The maids gently took off Jiang Sheng's clothes, helped the Jin Dan master into the pool, and then wiped his body.

The white and tender tender pancreas pressed against the body takes away the pain of running all the way and makes people feel relaxed.

Then the maids changed Jiang Sheng's clothes into new clothes, and the whole process was graceful and well-behaved, without any transgression.

How could Ouyang Chun, a real person in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, have the background to cultivate so many well-educated maids?
It was getting dark before I knew it.

Soon, another waiter came to invite Jiang Sheng to the banquet.

After Jiang Sheng passed through the bamboo forest and flower garden and walked through the entrance corridor, he arrived at the banquet place.

The table is full of delicacies and fine wines.

Ouyang Chun and his wife greeted him at the door. After seeing Jiang Sheng arriving, Ouyang Chun stepped forward and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan Chen, this is the Su family."

Mrs. Su smiled and saluted Jiang Sheng: "I have seen a real person."

This Su family's cultivation level is also in the Zifu realm.

Judging from his aura, he must have broken through the realm after taking the Ziyun Barrier-Breaking Pill.

Judging from the conversation and behavior during the meeting, this Su should be from a certain family in the Tang Dynasty.

Jiang Sheng also nodded: "I have met Mrs. Sister-in-law."

"please!"

The three of them took their seats, and singing and dancing gradually began in the courtyard.

After Ouyang Chun and Jiang Sheng drank a few bottles, they laughed and said, "Brother Yuan Chen, I wonder what your plans are for the future?"

Jiang Sheng said: "When you enter the Tang Dynasty, you will know how big the world is. Now I plan to travel around the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty, and then find a disciple who can pass on the mantle of Taoism."

Ouyang Chunjie said with a smile: "Brother, you are right. Only when you enter the Tang Dynasty can you realize how big the world is. Our Tang Dynasty is vast and encompasses all directions. There are countless spiritual peaks and blessed places, and the famous sects of the Immortal Sect are countless."

"The number of heroes and geniuses in the Tang Dynasty is comparable to that of gravel. Taoist friends will definitely be able to find good disciples."

Jiang Sheng also smiled and said, "Then let me borrow Brother Ouyang's good words."

After the two had several more rounds of drinking, Ouyang Chun smiled and told his story again.

Ouyang Chun was born in a poor family, but he was smart and studious. After entering the school, he showed his talent for cultivation. Then he entered the academy, then the Taoist palace, and step by step he got to where he is today.

He also married Su, a considerate and gentle girl from an aristocratic family.

The Su family was born in the Su family, a wealthy family in Jiannan Dao.

Although he is not a direct descendant of the Su family, he still has an extraordinary status.

The Su family of Jiannan Road, the Wei family of Jiangnan Road, and the Cui family of Huainan Road were all famous families in the Tang Dynasty.

Many people say that Ouyang Chun was lucky enough to marry a daughter of the Su family.

Nowadays, Ouyang Chun is also one of the top big shots in Fangzhou City. Apart from the Yuanying Master who is in charge of Fangzhou City, Ouyang Chun has the highest status among the several Jindan Masters in Fangzhou City. .

It's not because of Ouyang Chun's strength, but because of another layer of Ouyang Chun's background.

Ouyang Chun pointed out in a subtle way that there was a layer of connections behind him.

That was the reason why he was able to marry the daughter of the Su family and had an extraordinary status in Fangzhou City.

At this time, Jiang Sheng also understood what Ouyang Chun meant.

So Jiang Sheng looked curious: "May I ask, dear friend?"

Ouyang Chun smiled faintly and cupped his hands in a certain direction.

There were two capitals in the Tang Dynasty, one was Chang'an, the holy capital, and Luoyang, the central capital.

The direction Ouyang Chun handed over was Luoyang.

Luoyang
Jiang Sheng didn't ask any more questions, but nodded with a smile.

Then the banquet became more and more harmonious, until late at night, both of them were very drunk.

Jiang Sheng got on the chariot and was sent back to the other courtyard by the waiter.

Looking at Jiang Sheng's leaving figure, Su asked softly: "Master has brought back a lot of people these days."

"Those geniuses who built the foundation and Zi Mansion are more valuable than this old Jin Dan Zhenren."

There was no hint of drunkenness in Ouyang Chun's eyes: "A genius who is in the foundation-building Purple Mansion realm, no matter how evil he is, is only in the lower three realms."

"And Jin Dan Zhenren, no matter how old he is, he is still Jin Dan."

"In the long run, genius is certainly important. But unless it is a truly supreme evildoer who can successfully form elixirs in less than a hundred years. Otherwise, what use is it to us and His Highness?"

Hearing this, Su Shi nodded.

Indeed, genius is of no use if it cannot grow.

Ouyang Chun said again: "What's more, there is something mysterious about this fellow Taoist Yuan Chen."

"You can't win over others, but you should also make friends with them."
