"Miss Lin, to be honest, the three of us are from out of town and are going to attend the Quqin Festival in the Holy City."
"It's just that I'm not familiar with the place, and I don't know what it's like in the Holy City."
"Since the girl is from this holy city, she must be very familiar with it."
"Just in time, we are almost reaching the Holy City now. I wonder if Miss Lin would mind if we come with you."
"By the way, we also looked after each other on the way."
Chen Changan said.
This place is very close to the Holy City of Zhongzhou, probably only a few dozen kilometers away.
Even walking down such a short distance would only take half a day.
So Chen Changan was too lazy to take the flying boat back.
Just in time, take a look at the scenery of this holy city in Zhongzhou along the way.
"Of course it's okay, sir, please."
Lin Qingxue nodded happily after hearing this, even though this place was already very close to the Holy City.
But the distance is still ten or twenty kilometers.
Such a long distance, and it is in the Qilian Mountains.
If there are masters like Chen Changan and others in the team, then there is no need to worry about safety issues.
How could Lin Qingxue refuse such a great good thing?
Of course, she also knew that Chen Changan was taking the initiative to help them.
Lin Qingxue is not stupid. For strong men like Chen Changan and others, this forest can be passed by them in just a short volley.
Immediately, she felt nothing but gratitude.
Soon, after getting organized, the group began to hit the road again.
Chen Changan chose to walk, stopping and stopping along the way. It could be seen that he was really enjoying the scenery here.
Behind him, Lin Qingxue and Mao Ruxue followed closely.
As for the carriages of the convoy, they were used to accommodate the wounded.
"Sir, you seem to like enjoying the scenery?"
Walking on the road, Lin Qingxue watched Chen Changan look at the world around him from time to time. Occasionally, he would be fascinated for a moment or two, and immediately asked Chen Changan curiously.
"Yeah." Chen Changan nodded when he heard this, and then said:
"Miss Lin doesn't know something."
"I used to rarely go out for some reasons."
"Even if I go out occasionally, I have never properly stayed in this world."
"So I became more curious about the outside world."
“Everywhere I go, I want to stop and take a look.”
"This is an old problem. I have tried to change it but never succeeded."
Hearing Chen Changan's words, Lin Qingxue nodded in understanding.
She found that she really couldn't understand the benefactor in front of her.
His temperament is too casual and he doesn't look like a practicing person at all.
Instead, he looks like an ordinary, ordinary person.
However, he is indeed a cultivator, and his cultivation is so powerful.
This is difficult to understand.
Then she said: "So that's it."
As he spoke, a feeling of envy quietly emerged from Lin Qingxue's heart.
She really envied Chen Changan.
Because Chen Changan's living situation is what she has always wanted.
Unfortunately, the current situation of her family makes it impossible for her to expect this.
As a person in charge of a large family, Lin Qingxue is not stupid, on the contrary, she is very smart.
She could almost guess that this time the monsters attacked the convoy, maybe someone wanted to target the Lin family.
She could even guess who the person behind this incident was.
This requires no evidence.
In the mountain forest, a group of people walked slowly in the forest.
After walking for about two or three hours, a towering city wall appeared in front of everyone.
On top of this tall city wall, four powerful characters stand majestically.
【Holy City of Zhongzhou】!
"Sir, here we are, this is the Holy City of Zhongzhou."
After arriving at the Holy City of Middle-earth, Lin Qingxue said to Chen Changan and the others.
"My house is not far ahead. Please don't mind coming back with us, sir, so that my little girl can repay your kindness for saving your life."
As she spoke, she pointed to a mansion in front of her.
Lin Mansion.
It covers a large area and the houses inside look very majestic.
There is no doubt that this is a large family.
Maybe he can still occupy one-third of an acre in this Shengzhou City.
Of course, this may not be necessary.
There are a total of five major secular families in Shengzhou City, and the Lin family is one of them.
Lin Qingxue is the eldest daughter of this generation of the Lin family.
Chen Changan shook his head and said:
"No need, Miss Lin. We have our own place to live."
"I won't bother Miss Lin."
"As for the life-saving grace, Miss Lin doesn't need to worry about it anymore."
"As I said before, when the road is rough, draw your sword to help, that's all."
As he spoke, Chen Changan pointed to the motorcade and said:
"And, if I remember correctly, as you said before, girl, your Confucian sect will need this batch of goods today."
"Seeing that it's almost sunset, I think the girls should send their things over first to avoid any mishaps."
After hearing Chen Changan's words, Lin Qingxue fell silent.
What Chen Changan said was extremely pertinent and reasonable.
Immediately, she bowed to Chen Changan and said:
"Qingxue, thank you sir for the reminder."
"Sir, you are so kind. My little girl will definitely come to thank you in the future."
Chen Changan nodded and said: "If that's the case, then Miss Lin, let's say goodbye."
"Sir, walk slowly." Lin Qingxue nodded.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people separated here.
Lin Qingxue led the people to continue delivering the goods to the Confucian Sect, while Chen Changan led Mao Ruxue and Li Ziwan and turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
"Yo? Young Master, are you guys staying in a hotel or having a meal?"
After a while, Chen Changan and the other two arrived at a restaurant.
Yuesheng Tower.
Yuesheng Tower is the largest restaurant in Zhongzhou Holy City.
Not only in Zhongzhou, but also in the entire human realm of the Formless Realm, their power is basically distributed.
However, in many places, they are not called Yuesheng Tower, but Jubao Pavilion.
Here, as soon as Chen Changan and the others entered, the waiter inside immediately greeted them respectfully.
"Boy, is there still a room?" Chen Changan asked.
The waiter nodded and replied: "As for you, sir, yes."
Then I just listened to his introduction:
"Sir, we still have one supreme room, five sky-shaped rooms, twelve earth-shaped rooms, and several herringbone rooms left here."
"Among them, the price of a Tianzi house is one Daoyuan stone per day, the Dizi house is half a Daoyuan stone per day, and the Herringbone house only costs ten taels of silver for one night."
"As for the supreme room, it is not currently available for rent."
"I wonder what you want, sir?"
After the waiter finished speaking, Chen Changan said:
"Secretary, give us three emperor rooms."
As he spoke, he took out a Najie from his hand and stretched out his hand to draw it.
Then, a white light flashed through, and dozens of Principle Source Stones appeared from inside.
"Okay, sir, I'll arrange it for you."
Seeing so many Principle Source Stones, the waiter immediately smiled and went to tidy up the room for Chen Changan and the others.
After a while, under the leadership of the waiter, Chen Changan and the others arrived at the so-called Tianzi Yajian.
There is a special spirit gathering array arranged in the room, so that the richness of the spiritual energy is almost comparable to some caves and paradises in the outside world.
You get what you pay for, this piece of Principle Origin Stone is indeed worth the money.
The waiter pointed to the room and said:
"Then guests, please check first to see if you want to stay here. If you are sure to stay, I will go down and register the information for you."
Chen Changan nodded: "These are the three rooms. Sorry to bother you, brother."
"Okay, three guests, I wish you a pleasant stay."
Hearing this, the waiter went down.
However, not long after leaving, I saw him coming again.
And he didn't come alone, there was a group of people following him.
The people who came here were similar to the waiters, they all looked like servants.
And in their hands, they were carrying a lot of things.
There are quite a few large and small ones, probably dozens of them.
There are books, bookshelves, good paper, pen and ink, etc.
There are many daily necessities.
The things brought by the waiter and others were finally placed in the rooms of Chen Changan and the others.
Upon seeing this, Chen Changan immediately asked doubtfully:
"Brother, can I ask what you are doing?"
Chen Changan was really confused.
Although the price of these things is unclear, it is conservatively estimated that the combined value will at least not be lower than the house price he gave before.
The rental price of one Principle Stone brings about the same experience as the price of a dozen or two Principle Stones. This is wrong no matter how you think about it.
After hearing Chen Changan's words, the waiter smiled and replied:
"Young master, you don't have to worry. These things were ordered by our young master and are brought here for you, young master, to use for free."
"Our young master said that you are all the future heads of the academy, so you can just use these things."
"Just treat me as a friend with you, young master."
After saying that, the waiter looked at Chen Changan, pointed at the objects that were being moved in one after another, and asked:
“Then young master, do you think you want to keep these?”
After hearing what the waiter said, Chen Changan thought for a moment and then said:
"Then stay."
The waiters and others brought up more than just pens, ink, paper and inkstones. There were just so many pens, inks, papers and inkstones in his possession.
In the boxes that were moved to the rooms of Mao Ruxue and Li Ziwan, Chen Changan saw more things that female cultivators liked to use.
Such as foundation boxes, ribbons, makeup mirrors, etc.
And things like books, pens, and ink, which were plentiful here in Chen Changan's place, were rare in their place.
No need to think about it, Chen Changan almost knew what the so-called young master was thinking.
He knew that it was now the time for Jixia Academy to hold the Qushangliushui Conference, so there would definitely be many Confucian scholars coming from all directions to the Holy City of Zhongzhou.
This includes staying in a hotel.
And he arranged the store here in advance, and also proactively donated books, pens, ink and other items.
It goes without saying what the meaning is.
I have to say, this man is really a very smart person.
With this thought in mind, after the waiter and others had brought all the items in and placed them, Chen Changan came to the table, picked up a book and started reading.
"Wuxianzhiwenlu".
Um?
Chen Changan did not expect that the first book he got was a miscellaneous book.
Moreover, this is a book that he has been looking for over the years but has never found.
Immediately, Chen Changan started to look.
Two hours later, Chen Changan closed the book.
He had finished reading the content of the book and was quite shocked.
This book records various secrets and anecdotes from the Formless Realm since the mythical age.
Like Taoist ancestors riding bulls, Confucian sages burning books, Buddha suppressing hell
Many of these things are no longer verifiable, but it is undeniable that they also play a role in witnessing the history of the formless realm.
Through this, Chen Changan also roughly understood some of the reasons for the fusion of the three thousand realms.
The current Three Thousand Realms are actually part of the Formless Realm, but during the battle in ancient times, the Heavenly Dao Sea was severely damaged and the heaven and earth were shattered.
That's why the world structure of Three Thousand Realms was divided.
But now Tiandaohai has been gradually recovering after this long period of cultivation.
Therefore, the Three Thousand Realms were also attracted back by it.
However, among these three thousand worlds, there are several worlds that are special.
Holy world, demon world, fairy world, god world.
Although these three worlds have also been separated, they retain part of the authority that the formless realm had in ancient times.
Such as the Holy World.
The reason why the Holy World is so powerful is because it took away part of the ancient rules of the Formless World when it was separated, and derived it into the true Tao.
As for the rest of the demon world, the fairy world, and the god world, Chen Changan didn't know this.
He has only been to the Demon Realm once.
【Ding! Congratulations to the host for finishing reading "Wuxianzhiwenlu"]
[Acquire magical power: Eye of the Past Level 1. 】
[Current magical power level: zero. 】
[Do you want to learn the current layer immediately? 】
"systematic learning."
Chen Changan did not expect that reading a book here would yield unexpected results.
You know, he has almost read through many books in the world today.
And as his cultivation level gets higher and higher, the system has higher and higher requirements for the level of the books he reads.
This also led to the fact that it was simply impossible for him to obtain magical powers from books.
But I didn’t expect to get it now.
Although it's just a magical power that doesn't have much use, it's better than not having it at all, right?
and.
Eyes of the past:
Function 1: Can see things in the past at a specific point in time;
Function 2: It has the function of perspective and can see the essence of things through the surface.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Changan read the "Wuxianzhiwenlu" several times, and directly upgraded the magical power "Eye of the Past" to the seventh level.
When it reached level seven, "Eye of the Past" stopped being produced.
It seems that its highest level is level seven.
It's a good harvest.
Feeling the sacred feeling coming from his eyes, Chen Changan nodded with satisfaction.
Then he put "Wuxianzhiwenlu" back.
For this kind of short story type book, reading it once is enough. If you read it too much, there is nothing good about it.
Dong dong dong~!
Dong dong dong~!
"Senior brother, senior brother, are you there?"
Around sunset, there was a knock on Chen Changan's door.
At this moment, Chen Changan just finished reading the book in his hand.
Chen Changan put down his book and shouted to the door:
"Junior sister, I'm here, you can just come in."
Zhiya~!
Soon, the door opened.
Two figures walked in from outside the door, it was Mao Ruxue and Li Ziwan.
"Ziwan has met my uncle."
As soon as he came in, Li Ziwan bowed to Chen Changan and saluted.
"Yeah." Chen Changan nodded, indicating that Li Ziwan didn't need to be so polite.
Then, he looked at Mao Ruxue and asked:
"Junior sister, why did you come to see me?"
"Senior brother, Senior Nephew Ziwan and I just discussed it. We want to go out to play. Do you want to go out with us?" Mao Ruxue said.
Going out to play?
After hearing what Mao Ruxue said, Chen Changan shook his head.
"not going."
Shopping with girls?
Chen Changan really didn't have this idea.
But he didn't want to extinguish the enthusiasm of Mao Ruxue and the two of them. Immediately, after thinking about Chen Changan, he explained:
"Go on your own."
"However, you two should remember that the Holy City is not as good as our Tianshui City."
"While the place is bustling, there are also all kinds of people gathered here. Sometimes there are people with unclear backgrounds mixed in."
"Be careful when you go out to play, and don't conflict with others."
Hearing Chen Changan's words, Mao Ruxue nodded quickly and said:
"I understand, senior brother."
Li Ziwan also bowed and said, "Thank you, uncle, for your concern."
"Well, be safe when you go out." Chen Changan nodded.
Then, he reached into his sleeves, and the next moment, he took out two brand-new Na rings.
"This is the Najie I got a few years ago. There are a lot of Principle Source Stones in it. If you want to go out to play, take these with you."
With that said, Chen Changan handed the two Na rings to Mao Ruxue and Li Ziwan respectively with a wave of his hand.
"Thank you, senior brother." After receiving the ordination, Mao Ruxue happily thanked Chen Changan.
But Li Ziwan next to him was startled.
Nothing else, because in that ring, she saw the Principle Source Stone.
Countless Principle Source Stones are densely packed, probably in the thousands.
Thousands of Principle Source Stones, what are these?
This is not a boast, Li Ziwan admitted that she might not be able to earn so many Principle Source Stones in her lifetime!
And now, my uncle just gave it to me casually as travel expenses for going out for fun?
this.?
Who is this uncle of my own?
"Uncle Master, this Najie is too valuable and cannot be accepted by this disciple." Immediately, Li Ziwan returned the Najie to Chen Changan and said firmly.
She really can't accept so many Principle Source Stones.
"Oh, Ziwan, just accept it."
"Don't worry, senior brother, he has a lot of Principle Origin Stones."
"There's no need to worry about senior brother."
After Li Ziwan asked, before Chen Changan said anything, Mao Ruxue spoke first.
While speaking, she directly put Najie back into Li Ziwan's hands.
"Uncle Master, what...?" Seeing this, Li Ziwan looked at Mao Ruxue and then at Chen Changan.
Chen Changan nodded to her:
"Well, let's go out and have some fun."
"Uncle, me"
At this moment, Li Ziwan suddenly felt an inexplicable complexity in her heart.
"Okay, let's go, Ziwan, little girl."
"If you don't leave, you'll be exposed to the sun tomorrow."
In the end, Mao Ruxue pulled, and the two left here.
After Mao Ruxue and the others left, Chen Changan's place suddenly became much quieter.
To be honest, Chen Changan is actually no stranger to Shengzhou City.
As early as three years ago, he came here as [Emperor Song].
And he stayed here for many days.
But at that time, the Holy State was not as prosperous as it is now.
Tomorrow is the Qu Yuan meeting, and Chen Changan is thinking about how to maximize the benefits.
The Confucian Quxiang meeting usually goes through several processes.
Record texts for new officials.
If you are a Confucian scholar above the level of a great Confucian, you will be invited to enter the Confucius Temple and the Kewen Palace.
The Wen Palace is equivalent to the Dao Palace for Taoist practice.
If Daogong is the embodiment of a monk who has cultivated Taoism to the extreme, then Wenggong is the embodiment of a Confucian scholar who has learned Confucianism and Taoism to the extreme.
Both of them have the ability to become ancestors!
However, compared to the condition that the Dao Palace requires eight realms of Taoist ancestors to be able to be completed.
The conditions for the formation of Wen Palace are much simpler.
As long as you are a Confucian cultivator who is a senior Confucian or above, it is basically possible to form a literary palace in your body.
There is a great scholar in the Wen Palace, which means that his way has been recognized by heaven.
From then on, he had the qualifications to establish a sect and become an ancestor.
This is also the fundamental reason why a great Confucian can often suppress a country in the land of Zhongzhou.
When Chen Changan was promoted to a great scholar, he also condensed his own literary palace.
Moreover, his literary palace is even more dazzling compared to the literary palaces of other great Confucian scholars.
The Confucian sect invited him here this time in the hope that he could inscribe his literary works in the Confucius Temple.
From now on, enter the Confucius Temple!
This is a win-win result.
Chen Changan carved his own literary palace in the Temple of Confucius.
So this means that his Tao will be passed down in the Temple of Confucius as one of the branches of Confucianism.
It is no longer Confucianism and Taoism that is called the opposition.
Once this thing is successful, then the Confucian sect in the future will be equivalent to having the inheritance of Zhou Tianxu Shen.
At this time, all kinds of weather luck come to your body.
Confucianism will usher in another vigorous development.
It is not even impossible for one or two more Semi-Saints to be born as a result of this!
This is where Confucianism benefits.
But at the same time, Chen Changan also has his own potential to benefit.
In fact, he can benefit more than Confucianism.
This is understandable!
Once Chen Changan burned his Confucianism and Taoism into the Confucius Temple.
So this will mean that from now on, he may take away more than half of the fortune of Confucianism and Taoism.
It may even appear in the distant past, just like what happened in the Buddhist lineage of gods and Buddhas, there is a possibility of the emergence of a second Confucian sect.
Chen Changan himself may also take the opportunity to become a Taoist and become the second Confucian sage after Confucius!
This is a big gamble!
If the bet is successful, the Confucian sect will return to its peak from now on and join the ranks of the ten sects again.
If you lose the bet, the Confucian sect will be severely weakened.
From now on, we face two problems in the world.
A situation in which the two most powerful Confucian and Taoist traditions, Tianshui Confucianism and Confucianism and Taoism, contended and collided with each other.
Of course, the latter is not bad.
The collision of the two most powerful Confucianism and Taoism may not necessarily lead to destruction.
It may also be a further sublimation!
Of course, as to whether it is destruction or sublimation, all this is unknown.
Chen Changan doesn't know this either, the only thing he knows now is.
This time, he had to go to the Confucius Temple no matter what.
This won't change.
Dong dong dong~!
Dong dong dong~!
"Sir, are you there? An old gentleman came down below. He said he was an old acquaintance of yours and wanted to meet you."
At this time, the door outside was knocked again, and then the waiter's voice rang.
"Someone is looking for me?"
Chen Changan was stunned when he heard the waiter's words at the shop outside his door.
Squeak.
Then he opened the door, looked at the waiter and asked.
"Xiaoer, you said someone is looking for me?"
When the waiter heard this, he quickly raised his hands and saluted:
"Yes, sir, an old gentleman came down just now."
"He doesn't stay at the hotel either. He said he is an old acquaintance of the young master and wants to meet the young master."
"The young one couldn't make up his mind, so I came to ask the young master if he wanted to go and see him."
"Let's meet."
Chen Changan nodded when he heard this.
He really couldn't figure out who would be looking for him at this time.
Later, under the guidance of the waiter, Chen Changan arrived in the lobby.
"Mr. Liang?"
