Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 307 Entering Jinling

"Is this Jinling City?"

At noon, everyone arrived at Jinling City.

It is already winter now, and there is a light snow in the sky, and there is a chill in the air.

But in front of Li Xiuyuan's eyes, there is a huge city full of flowers and brocades. This is the most prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River since ancient times. The famous Qinhuai River stretches out to the outside. The painted boats on the river are like clouds, and there are countless singers. Even in broad daylight, you can hear bursts of vocal music coming from there. Obviously, there are many disciples from rich families looking for fun there.

Li Xiuyuan was brought to Jinling City by his father when he was young, and now he still remembers that he spent very little time in Jinling City, just wandered around, but now nearly ten years have passed.

The last time I came here, I stopped the plague god in Jinling City.

And he made a bet with the gods in the sky near the pavilion that he passed by before.

It's just that he didn't go to the city to play that time.

This time, if time permits, he plans to stay in Jinling City for a while.

"Jinling City is the key to governing the boundaries of Yangzhou." Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly. He had already dealt with trivial matters, and it was time to fight the gods in the sky.

"Jinling City is the most important city in Yangzhou. If I can take down the ghosts and gods here and control the demons and goblins here, then I can issue orders here and lay out Yangzhou. It will not be difficult to govern this state."

He managed Guo Beicheng well.

But that's just the beginning.

Yangzhou is very big, and Guobei City is just one of the cities. Its importance is much lower than that of Jinling City.

You know, this Jinling City will become the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. Since ancient times, it has been said that this place has a royal atmosphere and excellent geomantic omen. As for whether it is true or not, it is not known.

But what Li Xiuyuan is sure of is that the more prosperous the city, the more powerful ghosts and gods entrenched here.

People fight for the city for the sake of the country, ghosts and gods fight for the city for incense and morality.

Because the more people pray to gods and worship Buddha in a prosperous city, the more incense can be provided for a ghost.

Therefore, there are many large and small temples in Jinling City, and there are temples of various ghosts and gods, all of which want to get a share of Jinling City.

"Since I'm here, I'll take care of the ghosts and gods in Jinling City." Li Xiuyuan's eyes flickered, and he rode a healthy horse and led four guards into the city slowly.

On an ordinary day, there was a light snowfall in the sky. This was an auspicious snowfall, and with this auspicious snowfall, the ghosts and gods in the city did not know that a human saint stepped into the city, preparing to bring a new world to this ancient and prosperous city. A whole new change.

After entering the city, there were many people on the street, so Li Xiuyuan and the guards dismounted early and led the horses on foot.

"There are more people here than in Guobei County. I thought there were more people in Guobei County. No matter how prosperous the city is, it can't compare." Wu Fei grinned and touched his bald head. snow water.

"The heritage of the thousand-year-old city is not comparable to that of Guobei County. Everyone in the world knows about Jinling City, but no one knows about Guobei County." Li Xiuyuan laughed.

Guobei County is very prosperous, but its reputation is not obvious, and its background is also poor. Although there is the Li family and a big family is entrenched there, but compared with Jinling City, he still thinks it is more than a star and a half behind.

After all, it is limited there, Guobei County is just a county.

"Young Master, look at that, look at that, there are two big snakes." Suddenly Ma Dong pointed to a craftsman by the side of the road in surprise and said.

But I saw a performer sitting by the side of the road, in front of him were two bamboo boxes, in each of these two bamboo boxes, there were two blue-colored ones, one big and one small, the big one was as thick as an arm, The body is entangled in the box, with half of the body sticking out, the small one is as thick as three fingers, and the body is slender and slender, nearly a foot in length.

Following the call of the busker, the two blues swayed in various movements, sometimes wrapped around his body, and sometimes fiddled with the beat, as if they were dancing, and sometimes devoured each other, forming a big circle.

"Okay~!"

"Good job."

The fascinated people watching nearby applauded and shouted, and from time to time they threw out copper coins as rewards.

"This is a snake charmer. He has raised these two snakes really well." Li Xiuyuan smiled, but he saw that the eyes of the two green snakes already had a look of wisdom.

This is the performance of being refined.

In other words, these two performing snakes are the lowest level spirits, no wonder how they can cooperate with the snake charmer's orders.

If it is a snake in the mountains, don't say you call them, it is already good if they don't bite you.

"Eldest young master, how about going over there to have a look? There must be other fun to watch as people gather around there." Ma Dong said again,

Li Xiuyuan said: "Don't worry, after watching other people's performances, how can we not leave a little reward." After speaking, he took out a little bit of silver from his pocket and threw it out.

It fell right into the bamboo box containing the snake.

Seeing the silver reward, the snake charmer immediately shouted: "Daqing, Erqing, don't kowtow to this young master yet."

The two blue ones moved rustlingly, and even swung their bodies and lowered their heads in Li Xiuyuan's direction, as if they were saying thanks.

"Okay~!"

His performance made the people nearby applaud again and again.

Li Xiuyuan smiled, and continued to lead the horse forward.

Passing by another place, I saw a group of people gathered around a stone beside the Qinhuai River, pointing.

But I saw a Taoist lying on the stone, wearing a Taoist robe, bare feet, no shoes, with his chest open, sleeping very hard, snoring like thunder.

"It's already snowing, and this Taoist is not afraid of the cold and sleeps on a rock. It's really strange."

"He's been sleeping here for seven days. I've seen him before. I didn't expect him to be sleeping here when it was snowing today. I came here to see him and thought he was frozen to death."

The nearby people gathered around the Taoist man and were amazed.

And after watching one batch, another batch came again, and the place where the Taoist slept was always surrounded by many people.

"This Taoist's cultivation is so advanced, he will soon become a golden core." Li Xiuyuan passed by and took a look, and he was also surprised.

Outsiders watch the excitement, while insiders watch the doorway.

Li Xiuyuan felt that there was a wave of heat in this Taoist's body, and the snow within a ten feet nearby had been melted. He believed that if you get close to this Taoist, you will feel as comfortable as warm spring, and you will not feel cold at all.

Being able to achieve this step shows that this Taoist has already begun to swallow the sun, and has reached a very high level.

Just wait for the yin and yang to reconcile, and the dragon and the tiger will reconcile with each other, and then they can form a golden elixir, and become the same way as the real immortal of the land and his master blind Taoist.

"I don't know how this wild Taoist compares with the Taoist priest?" Niu Er couldn't help but said.

"It's definitely not as good as the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest has reverted to a child, and he looks younger and younger. He looks so old, how can he be as capable as a Taoist priest?" Ma Dong said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and left with his guards without saying anything.

But after he left, the Taoist who had slept for seven days suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep. He looked around with his hazy eyes, but he didn't find anything special. After muttering a few times, it was strange and then turned around to prepare for sleep.

But the barefoot Taoist noticed that there were more and more people around him, which disturbed his rest, so he rolled over and fell headlong into the river next to him.

"It's not good, someone fell into the water." Immediately someone shouted.

But when the crowd was attracted to him, he saw a Taoist floating on the icy river with his back facing the sky, snoring and sleeping soundly.

After walking around the bustling Jinling City, Li Xiuyuan still felt that there was more to it.

The prosperity of ancient times is also a place worth remembering.

"Listen, young master, there is someone performing chest crushing in front of us, should we go and see it?" Wu Fei loves excitement, and he will go where there are many people, and he is not afraid of frightening people with his evil face.

"No, we'll go to the Marquis's Mansion to ask for debts, and we'll have to find a place to live later, so we can't keep playing." Li Xiuyuan said.

As he spoke, he led the horse and escorted him to the Hou Mansion.

The Marquis Li's Mansion in Jinling City can be known by just asking around, just like the Li family in Guobei County, everyone knows, everyone knows.
