In Jinjing City, Bai Jun hid his face, pretended to be a scholar, and rushed to Xicheng.
The northern city of Jinjing is the main palace of the imperial palace, where the deep palace is located. Nancheng is where ordinary people live. Most of them are tile-roofed houses and alleys, which are crowded and messy. The east city is mostly home to wealthy families, red walls and green tiles, rich families, princes, generals and ministers.
Xicheng is the most prosperous place in Jinjing, where commerce is located. It ranges from grain shops and banks, carriages and horses running around the world, to snacks and steamed buns for breakfast, regular major commercial houses, exotic shops, unhealthy flower streets and willow lanes, and the Red Mansion and Chu Pavilion stretching for thirty miles.
Here, you can see poor people and slaves everywhere, and those passing by may be blood relatives of a certain prince, or even princes and princesses in the palace.
The Holy Emperor came to the throne and the Jin Dynasty was immortal, so there was no talk of his death. Therefore, the succession of the crown prince was just a fantasy. These princes and princesses had nothing to fight for, so no one paid much attention to them, let alone the Holy Emperor. The emperor had already killed dozens of his children.
Now there are only nine concubines in the palace, two concubines, three concubines and four nobles. It can be said that there are no palace fights and there is harmony in the harem.
Since the death of Queen Xiaoren three hundred years ago, the Holy Emperor has been obsessed with her and has not entered the harem for a hundred years, and the throne has been vacant for a long time.
During those hundred years, the harem was almost deserted, and there was no longer competition for favor and power except for the draft. In the past hundred years, the Holy Emperor had just chosen several concubines to enter the palace, and the Holy Emperor only visited the harem once in a while.
So now there are only five or six princes and princesses in the palace, but their titles are already weird titles like Thirty-Two Prince and Forty Princess.
Bai Jun walked by the shops along the street, and from time to time he could get some gossip from these mortals. The rumors in the palace made him raise the corners of his mouth. At least this Holy Emperor dares to let the world talk about him as an emperor, which shows that his broad mind is extraordinary.
As he was walking, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at a grain store.
It was a medium-sized grain store. There were only three or two people in the store asking about the price of rice and preparing to buy some.
The waiter in the shop was waiting for us, with a smile on his face and he was persuading and boasting about how good the food in his own grain shop was.
There was a wealthy man sitting behind the counter. He was offering incense to the two small statues enshrined on the pavilion with a pious expression.
One of the statues was clearly Bai Jun's body, and he worshiped none other than Liu Xian, the God of Mount Fei. But the other statue is a mouse.
Bai Yan muttered in his heart, "How come there are people here who worship Liu Xian and believe in Liu Sect? At this time, it's better to keep a low profile."
It is also necessary to worship the Rat Immortal in the grain store. Many rats mean thieves, and worshiping rats means staying away from thieves. What's more, if you worship the Rat Immortal, the rats will no longer be able to eat more food in the granary.
Bai Jun took only two steps and paused again. Because not far away, a cloth shop in front also enshrines its own statues. This time, there is also a statue of a fox fairy enshrined, in the hope that the fox fairy will appear and make the fabrics in the house beautiful and attractive. In addition, a golden leopard statue was also enshrined in the hope that the Leopard God of Wealth would make them rich.
He raised his head, dispersed his thoughts, and scanned hundreds of shops, large and small, on Kaiyuan Street, one of the thirty-six streets in the West City. All kinds of people, people, officials, chickens, ducks and livestock passed by his eyes one by one. In his spiritual thoughts, dozens of shops were locked, and these shops all enshrined his statues and believed in the Liu Sect.
Bai Jun felt something bad in his heart. This was only one of the thirty-sixth streets in Xicheng, and nearly 20% of the people believed in the Liu Sect. Then I was afraid that more people in Jinjing would believe in it.
The Imperial City God's Palace, Jin Yiwei, Imperial Procuratorate, and even the Yushitai are not blind. With so many statues of gods dazzlingly displayed, they must be clear in their hearts.
Bai Yan truly realized in his heart that there was an invisible hand behind his back helping him build momentum to compete with the Holy Emperor for power!
It is impossible for Liu Jiao's determination to cross several states and spread so widely in Jinjing in such a short period of time. It is only possible that someone with ulterior motives is using his name to spread followers.
The Golden Dragon of National Fortune in the imperial capital is here again. All evils cannot invade, and it is difficult for hundreds of gods to move around. The perception of Shinto will also be greatly affected. In addition, some mysterious methods can block the perception of Shinto incense. Naturally, it can hide the Shinto from far away in Hui Mountain. Incarnation.
"Is this the situation where I can't help myself?" Bai Jun sighed with emotion: "Someone is building momentum for me, using hundreds of chess pieces to help my wonderful chess move, and treating tens of thousands of mortals as abandoned pieces, and the world is In a chess game, everyone is like a chess piece.
I don’t know which big shot plotted against me, but I wrote it down. "
Bai Jun calmed down his mentality. The lonely state of mind that he had been alone in the mountains and forests for hundreds of years allowed him to have the determination to not be left without a master even if the world collapsed.
Walking into the bustling crowd, Bai Yan, who had just calmed down, almost failed again.
On the street, people come and go, and passers-by collide with each other from time to time, but Bai Jun's waist has been touched six or seven times by passers-by in this short period of time!
Even if he didn't bring a money bag, he would subconsciously think that he had lost his money. This thief is so rampant!
But there is no way, there are always things that are difficult to balance in a prosperous place.
Bai Jun turned around and walked towards a place with fewer people. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw a large group of people gathered in front of him, all watching the excitement and cheering.
He was somewhat interested. It was still early in the day anyway, so it was okay to have some fun.
Bai Yan walked forward and saw a few people standing in the middle of the crowd. There were also two little monkeys with thick ropes tied around their necks. A handsome man in white was arguing with the middle-aged man holding the little monkeys.
"You are a bunch of charlatans and sorcerers who do evil and use evil magic to harm people. Whatever you say today will break your magic and take you to the government!" The man in white put his hands behind his back and spoke with an extraordinary air. It makes people feel quite extraordinary.
The black-faced man holding the monkey said coldly: "Brother, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. If you slander us, you will ruin our jobs! But don't blame us for being rude."
Bai Jun patted a young man beside him and asked with a smile: "Brother, may I ask what happened here?"
The young man looked back impatiently, and when he saw it was a scholar, he restrained himself, pointed at the two of them, and said with a smile: "This is the leader of the juggling class. This young man in white clothes jumped out and said who is the class leader?" Children are transformed into human monkeys to perform tricks and make money for a living.
When the class leader heard this, he became angry and quarreled with the young man, arguing non-stop. But when I looked at it, this monkey was just a monkey. How could it be a child?
In my opinion, these are mostly young people who are trying to impress people, want to be famous, and come here specifically to cause trouble. "
Bai Jun nodded and smiled, "Sometimes, what we see may not be the truth."
On the field, the man in white stepped forward and pointed at the two restless monkeys and said loudly: "Then if you say they are not monkeys transformed by evil methods, can you let me try and find out?
If I could change two monkeys back, they would be children. You must be sent to the government for punishment. "
"Hmph, you said I would give it a try? How should I compensate you for ruining my business?" The class leader narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "I can let you try it, so that all the people present can be witnesses. I am innocent.
However, if you don't change anything, for today's matter, you should at least take out fifty taels of silver! Are you willing or unwilling? "
"Okay! How can I, Bai Jingxing, be afraid of you?" The man in white also agreed bluntly and said, "Bring your monkey here!"
"Huh, take it!" The class leader threw the monkey rope into Bai Jingxing's hand, crossed his arms and stared at him with an unkind expression.
Bai Jingxing took it, touched the heads of the two little monkeys with an unbearable expression, and said, "Don't worry, I will cast a spell to help you get out of this hellish ordeal!"
He took out a small incense burner from his waist, with an ancient Chinese character "Liu" engraved on it. Then he took three incense sticks and bowed to the sky, to the earth, and then to the incense burner. He murmured something in his mouth: "The emperor is above, The soil is thick below, and Liu Xian is respected. My disciple Bai Jingxing is doing justice for heaven, and I especially ask you, old man, to help me. Three incense purple stoves rise to the blue sky, and disciples from all directions worship Hui Mountain. Liu Xian and Liu Xian will be prosperous forever, and my disciples ask God to help. !”
The onlookers started talking a lot when they saw his appearance, and many people discussed it.
"Is this person worshiping Liu Xian? How come we haven't seen this kind of worship before?"
"Is this a true disciple of the Liu Sect?"
"Does Liu Xian really have magical powers? I've been worshiping Liu Xian for a few months and I don't feel any efficacies. Could it be that Liu Xian's magic power is not high?"
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense. You have only been worshiping for a few months. People have been worshiping for years and decades. Some even worship Liu Xian for generations. For such families, as long as they ask for something, Liu Xian will do it. What will you give me?”
…
Bai Jun was stunned. Where did these people hear these statements? He, the bishop, doesn’t even know about these things?
However, the Bai Jingxing in front of him is a good disciple. He is born with a yin body and a yin bone, which is most suitable for connecting yin to the soul. He can also inherit his lunar power and incense divine power.
Moreover, it is also born with yin and yang eyes and can see ghosts and monsters that ordinary people cannot see.
He had never discovered such a good seedling before. And it seems that this boy is still a disciple who has just started, and he dares to compete with these warlocks who travel around the world to save people from suffering, which shows that he has compassion.
As Bai Jingxing muttered something, the rising cigarette slowly condensed and turned into a layer of light smoke, covering the two little monkeys.
Seeing this scene, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh, look, this smoke, why is this smoke so weird?"
"Are you stupid? This must be the appearance of Liu Xian?"
The class leader glanced at it and just sneered without panic. With this simple Taoist practice, he still wanted to compete with the animal spirit method he had practiced for decades?
Sure enough, the smoke enveloped the two little monkeys, which could only make the two monkeys struggle happily, but no human form could be seen at all.
The class leader sneered and said: "This person is a human, and a monkey is a monkey. How could I do such an evil thing? You kid, if you can't do it, stop it quickly, so as not to let my monkey suffer some pain."
"Huh, don't be so arrogant!" Seeing this, Bai Jingxing couldn't help but use this spell, so he suddenly bit his finger, two drops of blood fell on the little monkey, and he silently recited the curse.
After a while, the two little monkeys started to stand up unsteadily. Seeing this scene, the leader of the class looked stern. He hid his hand in his sleeve and opened a small bottle. A wasp flew out of it and landed on the person who was casting a spell. Bai Jingxing stung him hard on the neck.
"Hi~ah!"
Bai Jingxing screamed in pain and was immediately distracted. The condensed smoke dispersed, and the little monkeys also lay motionless on the ground.
"You're cheating!" Bai Jingxing said angrily, "Huh, if it doesn't work once, then try it again!"
"Haha, you kid, don't think about trying to show off. I heard that some wild bees are poisonous, and those who sting them will die. If you don't suppress the poison, I'm afraid..." The class leader smiled proudly, half-heartedly. A word of warning.
"You are a charlatan, you have no conscience, but you know that there is a god three feet above your head, and you are not afraid of others and afraid of yourself." Bai Jingxing covered his neck and said: "You secretly stopped me from casting a spell, which means you have a guilty conscience. Do it yourself. You can hide your regrets from others, but you can’t hide them from yourself.”
"You kid, you are really looking for death! You came to destroy my place, and you came to curse me. Do you really think that Wu Santou, the class leader, is a vegetarian? Come here, give this kid a good beating and throw him out. If you take the money you have with you as an apology to us!"
"Yes!" Three fat men stepped forward immediately, with evil expressions on their faces, rolling up their sleeves and about to beat Bai Jingxing violently.
Bai Jingxing held the incense burner in his hand and shouted: "Do you really think that my Liuxian Chuma disciple is easy to bully? The Liuxian treasure furnace is here. Disciple Bai Jingxing, I respectfully invite Liuxian to descend from the gods!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of cigarette smoke suddenly rose up, covering an area about ten feet in radius, scaring everyone into retreating and even a few big men had stage fright.
A snake shadow swayed in the smoke, and everyone who saw it shouted that Liu Xian had appeared.
Seeing this, the group leader hurriedly took off a cloth flag from his body, which was engraved with Taoist divine patterns, something similar to Taoist patterns. He silently recited a mantra, raised his hands and shouted: "The Patriarch Xuantian is on top, the Patriarch Xuantian is on top. , my disciple respectfully invites the Patriarch to show his spirit and subdue the demons!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a divine wind blowing from the flag, blowing Bai Jingxing's smoke into pieces.
Bai Yan, who was standing on the periphery, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene. Bai Jingxing's Liuxian was just a snake demon immortal in his mountain who had only practiced for three hundred years. The power he could borrow was pitifully limited.
Bai Jin stretched out his hand a little, and a stream of divine power fell into the incense burner. Immediately, the incense burner lifted into the sky, and a vast purple cloud of smoke rose up. It looked like a snake and a python, but it was like a long river, but it was the sun shining on the incense burner that produced purple smoke. From a distance, he saw the waterfall hanging in front of the river.
A huge white cloud python was suspended in the sky, lowering its head and looking down at Wu Santou, whose legs were already weak.
The giant python lowered its head and exhaled a stream of white breath, and then saw that the two monkeys turned into two children, a boy and a girl, with scars all over their bodies and fear on their faces.
As soon as the child appeared, the white cloud python disappeared, and the incense burner returned to Bai Jingxing's hands.
He took the incense burner dumbfounded. When did his immortal family become so powerful?
