Great Transcendence

Chapter 39 Chang'an Conference, the yellow-faced boy

"It's time to go to Datang in the south."

During this year, Lin Yi also inquired about the situation in the south from some monks he met in his free time.

It is the Li Tang Dynasty that now rules the Central Plains.The Holy Son of Heaven, Li Ying, reigned with the title of Tianbao.Calculating the time, it should be Tianbao's ninth year now.

As soon as he said he would leave, Lin Yi made a little tidy up and set off for the south.

The borders between the demon kingdoms in the north and the Tang Dynasty in China are very long, about [-] miles, and there are a total of six or seven demon kingdoms bordering on the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

There are huge cities with high walls and deep fortifications everywhere here, and the soldiers in the cities are strong and strong, even ordinary soldiers have some cultivation.

These cities are lined up along the border, and there is one every hundreds of miles, and the cities are also very prosperous.

It's just that the people in the north don't have a handover with China, and they don't have any business contacts.

If it is an ordinary civilian, it is naturally difficult to cross this heavily fortified defense line of the northern demons like a moat.But for a monk like Lin Yi, it's no problem.

More than a month later, Lin Yi has gone deep into the hinterland of Tang Dynasty and set foot on the land of Chang'an.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an has been the capital.Although this city continued the buildings of the previous dynasty, it had been extensively renovated twice, and its scale had been expanded by more than ten times.Yinyin is already the most powerful city in the world, and the rich and luxurious are unparalleled in the world.

Lin Yi entered Chang'an City just in time for the lively Chang'an Grand Ceremony.

Emperor Li Ying of the Tang Dynasty was celebrating his [-]th birthday, and specially invited the world's Buddhist and Taoist experts to come to Chang'an to hold a water and land meeting.And let these Buddhist masters pray to the heavens and extend his life for a century.

You must know that life and longevity are governed by the heavens, even if the emperors, generals, and ministers have the power to spread all over the world and become the richest in the world.This lifespan is not meant to be extended.

This blessing meeting has become a grand event for both Buddhism and Taoism today. There are countless people from all walks of life, wandering monks, alchemists, and sorcerers who came to participate in the grand event.

Following the surging crowd, Lin Yi came all the way to the widest Suzaku Avenue in Chang'an City.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous country in the world, not only the politics of the court and the middle were enlightened, but also good ministers and famous ministers governing affairs.There are also fierce generals who have expanded the territory and conquered the Western Regions many times. They all returned with great victories.Moreover, the style of writing is open, the literary circles emerge in large numbers, and the colorful articles are far ahead of the previous generation.

The Western Regions and overseas countries all admire the Tang civilization, which has a long history. Envoys often come to pay homage, and even the princes and kings of various countries also live in Chang'an for a long time and are reluctant to leave.

Just the weather of Chang'an City, there is a poem that says: "The beautiful city and the beautiful scenery are not enough, and the Hu Niang in the Western Regions is dancing gracefully".

Suzaku Avenue is the main street of Chang'an. From the Xuanwu Gate in the north of Chang'an City to the front of the imperial palace, it is a straight avenue wide enough to accommodate eight carriages.

On both sides of Xuanwu Gate, there is the East Market and the West Square, which are Chang'an City, and even Datang, or even the most lively and prosperous market in the world. Not to mention the products of the Tang Dynasty, even the horses and weapons of the Western Regions, and the products of overseas countries. Spices, knacks, everything.

This time, the water and land meeting held by the Holy Emperor Li Ying was held on Zhuque Street.

Lin Yi looked up, and saw groups of monks and strangers entering from Xuanwu Gate one after another.

There are those who are busy in the world, dressed in rags, but appear to be dignified, and there are also those who are held by a large tray under their hands, and there are those who blow and beat, hug each other, but sit still, showing their superiority.

Today is a good day, so there are quite a few people who have traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an, even monks from the Western Regions and strange people from overseas also participated in this grand event.

Lin Yi took a few glances, then shook his head slightly.

Nine out of ten of these monks and strangers have no skills, their eyes are scattered, and there is no aura on the top of their heads. They are obviously liars with no mana.The remaining one-tenth, although stronger than ordinary people, also has its limit.

Although Li Ying is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, in the end he just fetched water from a bamboo basket in vain.

At this moment, a beggar with a giant snake around his waist suddenly broke into Suzaku Avenue.

There seemed to be a red light in this person's eyes, and there was a black air rising faintly from his head.The big snake at the waist was red all over, covered with a layer of fiery demonic aura.On the top door there is a unicorn protruding faintly, the eyes are like lightning, the snake's letter is flickering, and its speed is as fast as lightning, obviously it is not a common thing.

The beggar already had a ferocious face, and with such an evil thing wrapped around his waist, no one dared to approach him, and he was allowed to wander around in the garden, walking on Zhuque Street, just like a number one scholar parading through the street.

"This beggar has some magic power." Lin Yi thought to himself, but didn't bother to pay attention.As soon as he turned around, he walked outside, and the crowd behind him involuntarily parted to the two sides, making way for him.

Lin Yi came to the outside of the crowd, but saw a girl in white clothes staring at him intently. Although this girl is still young, she has bright eyes and white teeth, and skin like snow. She is a perfect little beauty.

"My concubine is rude, please don't mind the Taoist priest." The woman in white said with a smile, like a flower blooming, which is inconceivable.

It's a pity that Lin Yi travels through various realms, pursuing the Dao of Longevity with all his heart, and has already become as calm as water. He regards pink as a skeleton, and all appearances are false.

For example, in the world of Ming Dynasty, Lanruo Temple, which has beautiful female ghosts and touching legends, was burned to ashes by him.

What else is Qingfengyuechi, as well as countless ladies and noble ladies, for various reasons, want to see the real Qingxuan, but they have never been able to do so.

"It's okay." Lin Yi said, without stopping, and continued to walk outside.

"Daoist, please stay." A soft call came from behind.

Lin Yi felt a chill in his heart, but luckily it wasn't "Fellow Daoist, please stop", otherwise he would have run away without looking back.After that, once you meet the other party, you will take the initiative to back away.

"What's the matter?" Lin Yi asked.

"Please be merciful, Taoist priest, save my sister." The woman in white said, and knelt down with a "plop".A pretty face with pear blossoms and rain, arousing love and affection.

At this time, the attention of most people around was attracted by the monks and strangers on Suzaku Street, but there were still a few people standing outside who turned their heads to look over after hearing the movement.

The closest one was a handsome young man about twelve or thirteen years old, with a sallow face, but with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a handsome appearance, and a slightly bookish look.

"Quickly get up and talk." Lin Yi said, walking forward quickly and pulling the girl in white up from the ground.

The hand of the girl in white was very soft, weak and boneless.These are not the point, the point is that Lin Yi sensed a faint evil spirit from her body.
