Although he was traveling in the world of mortals, Xu Ke did not stray too far from home.
A large secular city 12,000 miles away from Haoyang Mountain is the place where Xu Ke experienced the world of mortals.
Twelve thousand miles, with Xu Ke's current level of cultivation, if he could control the Escape Light Flying Escape, he would be able to return to the Blue Water Pond in half an hour.
If you use the Lingbao "Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu Divine Talisman" to open a portal, step out in one step and you will return to Bishuitan.
Therefore, the higher the level of cultivation, the more blurry the concept of distance becomes.
This big secular city is called "Liangcheng", and it is the capital of a secular country called "Daliang".
Daliang Kingdom is the largest mortal country near Haoyang Sect, and this "Liang City" has a population of one million. Just with this population base, it is very suitable for the world of mortals to refine their hearts.
Along the way, Xu Ke flew through the sky using the "Soaring into the Clouds and Riding on the Mist" technique of the Yunzhong Dao Sutra.
This "flying through the clouds and riding on the mist" technique of flying and escaping has no difference in speed compared to riding on the light, but riding on the clouds is less ostentatious and will not attract the attention of mortals.
A cloud passing by in the sky is certainly not as conspicuous as a rainbow passing across the sky.
Soaring through the clouds, Xu Ke pressed down on the cloud light and landed in a mountain ridge dozens of miles away from Liangcheng.
If you want to enter the mortal world to experience, of course you cannot do it as an "immortal master". Only by practicing as an ordinary mortal can it be effective.
The robe on his body was made of such good quality that it looked like it was not ordinary at first glance, so he put on a set of ordinary mundane robes first.
When he reached out and touched it, the magic weapon "Purifying Lotus" gathered its spiritual light, shrunk into an ancient lotus-shaped hairpin, and inserted it into the bun.
The "Tian Luo Umbrella" has become more old-fashioned and ordinary, just like an ordinary ordinary oil-paper umbrella. The jade gourd also turned into an ordinary yellow-skin gourd, hanging on his waist.
With a flick of his hand, a "water mirror" appeared in front of him.
Xu Ke looked in the mirror and found that... he was so handsome.
His face is like a crown jade, and the treasure is shining brightly. At first glance, he does not look like a mortal.
Moreover, if you want to walk in the world as a doctor, you cannot be too young and tender-faced.
As soon as the thought occurred, Xu Ke's skin color became a bit darker and rougher. His face had a weather-beaten look, a long beard under his chin, and gray hair on his temples.
A middle-aged uncle who was clear and dignified, with a bit of a bookish air, and a bit of a worldly look, appeared in the water mirror.
This appearance is very medical-like.
Carrying a baggage on his back, carrying an oil-paper umbrella, a yellow leather gourd hanging on his waist, and wearing a green cloth robe that was not old but new, Xu Ke's figure swayed and floated out.
After leaving the mountains, Xu Ke walked naturally onto the post road and blended into the flow of people, not conspicuous at all.
Uh... Actually, he's a bit handsome.
Even if Xu Ke tried hard to lower his appearance, he still looked a bit handsome and elegant.
This caused some drivers on their way to Liangcheng to stop next to Xu Ke and say: The hostess is kind-hearted and expresses gratitude for the difficult journey for her husband, so she specially invites him to board the car.
I’m here to be a doctor, not to experience the “rich woman’s happiness”!
Xu Ke naturally refused without hesitation.
Fortunately, in broad daylight, the other party did not dare to use force. Otherwise, Xu Ke would have betrayed him on the spot during his trip to the world of mortals.
After rejecting four or five invitations to board the car and ride together, Xu Ke walked to the gate of Liangcheng.
This made Xu Ke couldn't help but sigh, the women from the rich families here are really having fun, even middle-aged uncles like "I" are not spared.
Just nibbling on the fresh meat is enough. Why should I be greedy for old bacon like this?
When I arrived at the city gate, I stood in line, slowly waiting for my identity to be verified and the city gate tax to be paid before I was allowed to enter the city.
Xu Ke naturally has an "identity household registration".
All mortal kingdoms in the entire Cangmang Plain are protected by the Cangmang Immortal Alliance and are considered vassals of the Cangmang Immortal Alliance.
Because of Xu Ke's status, he asked for a "household registration" in the mortal world. The master immediately sent a bunch of household registration documents, and Xu Ke could fill them out however he wanted.
"Xu Zijing, a native of Guyang County, Qishan County, has a reputation as a scholar and is now practicing medicine?"
The captain of the city gate took the document and glanced at it, then looked up at Xu Ke.
"Exactly down there."
Xu Ke bowed his hand to the captain of the city gate, then quickly took out a few pieces of silver and handed it over.
"this……"
The captain of the city gate hesitated for a moment, then took the money, raised his hand to Xu Ke and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu has a reputation as a scholar. Our court gives preferential treatment to scholars. You can enter the city for free. But..."
The captain turned to look at the soldiers behind him and waved his hand, "You haven't thanked Mr. Xu for the reward?"
"Thank you Mr. Xu for the reward!"
All the soldiers happily bowed their hands to Xu Ke and thanked him.
The people nearby who were waiting to enter the city looked at Xu Ke a little strangely.
You don't look like a wealthy person dressed like this. There was obviously no need to give money, but a few taels of silver were given away. What's the fuss about?
Through the "purity lotus" inserted on his head, Xu Ke felt all kinds of distracting thoughts and desires, including doubts, ridicule, envy, and greed...
Sure enough, the world of mortals refines the heart!
The mountains are so pure, where can there be so many distracting thoughts and desires? No wonder they have to enter the world of mortals to experience it.
As for giving money... Xu Ke had just left the mountain, so he didn't know the purchasing power of a few taels of silver, so he was naturally given too much.
The captain of Chaocheng Gate bowed his hands, and Xu Ke walked into Liangcheng.
The market is bustling and busy with traffic.
Judging from the people I met along the way just now, ordinary mortals in this world have very good physical fitness.
Especially the soldiers who were at the city gate just now had some faint fluctuations of energy and blood in their bodies.
This must be because of the existence of "spiritual energy".
The nourishment of spiritual energy allows ordinary people in this world to have better physical fitness. There is more or less spiritual energy in your daily diet, not to mention that you naturally inhale spiritual energy when you breathe.
Although most ordinary people do not have spiritual roots, they can still strengthen their bodies and enhance their physical fitness under the nourishment of this long-lasting spiritual energy.
However... the spiritual energy here is still too weak.
Along the way, Xu Ke could clearly see through his celestial eye that the closer he got to the mortal realm, the lower the concentration of spiritual energy became.
This phenomenon is of course not a natural phenomenon, but the result of the sect's monopoly on spiritual energy.
The first thing every sect should do after choosing a location is to set up a large formation to contain the earth's spiritual energy.
Large sects occupy large spiritual veins, medium-sized sects occupy medium-sized spiritual veins, small sects occupy small spiritual veins, and cultivating families and casual cultivators occupy micro-spiritual veins.
What's more, these sects not only restrain the spiritual energy of the earth's veins, but also the spiritual energy of the sky.
With such layer upon layer of monopoly, the aura left to the mortal world was peeled off layer by layer and became very thin.
Regarding this... Xu Ke himself is a vested interest, and he has no position to say that this is wrong.
Mortals without spiritual roots will not be able to step into the gate of immortality after all. No matter how abundant the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is, they will not be able to become immortals.
The only possibility is...
For example, the snitch flashed past in the alley ahead.
Abundant spiritual energy from heaven and earth may breed a prosperous martial arts world.
Mortals without spiritual roots can only obtain spiritual energy through food and cannot directly introduce it into the body. Practicing martial arts is the only possibility for transcendence.
Xu Ke smiled, ignored the snitch, and continued to move forward.
After buying some pens, ink, paper and inkstones in a literary and ink shop, Xu Ke took the opportunity to ask the waiter about the most prosperous place near Liangcheng.
The answer he got surprised Xu Ke, but also felt it was reasonable.
The most prosperous place in Liangcheng was actually the "Taoist Temple" established by the sect in Liangcheng.
This is also normal.
All the mortal kingdoms in the entire Cangmang Plain are vassals of the Cangmang Immortal Alliance, and every large city has set up a "Taoist Academy" to recruit disciples.
Even Xu Ke himself came out of the Taoist Academy before awakening his past life memories.
The world of cultivating immortals is not out of touch with the secular world. For the common people, cultivating immortals is not a legend, but the road to heaven that is just around the corner.
God is ethereal. The Tao is right in front of you.
Under such circumstances, is it necessary to choose whether to believe in God or to believe in faith?
It is naturally a good thing for ordinary people to worship Taoism and worship Buddha without seeking gods.
But for Xu Ke's "incense to refine the true spirit", this is not a good thing.
Mortals worship Taoism, but it is not a kind of incense to pray to gods and Buddhas, but a kind of "pan-faith". It cannot be said that there is no incense and aspiration, but it cannot meet the standards required by Xu Ke.
If I want to "refine the true soul with incense", I shouldn't have to "pretend to be a ghost" myself, right?
In Xu Ke's plan, the divine way, the demonic way and the righteous way, the three methods of cultivating the true spirit, must go hand in hand, otherwise... if the thoughts of good and evil are out of balance, the character will change drastically.
This certainly does not meet Xu Ke's requirements.
The plan to collect incense didn't go well.
Xu Ke has discovered that his previous ideas were still behind closed doors and took it for granted.
Any plan made without understanding the actual situation will be unrealistic. Plans must be adjusted now.
There are solutions to the problem... of course.
The way tech geeks solve problems is, of course, to rely on technology.
When people are sleeping, their minds are most unrestrained, and their desires and wishes are more than normal.
So... let millions of people in Liangcheng dream together at night, and the problem can be easily solved.
Now, let’s settle down in Liangcheng and open a medical clinic!
After asking about the location of Yahang, Xu Ke found Yahang and bought a house with a street-facing shop and a courtyard.
The housing prices in Liangcheng are indeed a bit expensive, but fortunately Xu Ke is not short of money now.
For practitioners, silver is just an ordinary metal material and is worthless at all.
The house is pretty good, except for the fact that someone died in the house, there are no shortcomings.
For Xu Ke, this is not a problem.
The Corruption Technique removes weeds, and the Dust Removal Technique cleans up dust. This house with a store in the front and a courtyard in the back is the residence where Xu Ke entered the world and practiced spiritual practice in Liangcheng.
I bought some daily necessities, as well as some furniture and medicinal materials needed for hospitals and pharmacies.
After renovation, Xu Ke's "Huichun Tang" medical center was officially opened.
An industry like medical clinics needs word of mouth the most, and business doesn’t come as soon as it opens. Xu Ke has been open for a few days, and there is not a single person to see a doctor or buy medicine.
However, Xu Ke didn't care about this, he just took his time, since he didn't make a living by practicing medicine anyway.
Coming to the backyard, Xu Ke started working in the room.
To realize that millions of people in Liangcheng can dream together, some arrangements need to be made.
He waved his hand and released the spiritual treasure "Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu Divine Talisman", which turned into an ordinary jade and was placed on the desk in the room in the three positions.
Take off the "pure lotus" that turned into a hairpin, throw it into the lotus pond in the backyard, and turn it into a lotus.
He opened the Tianluo umbrella again and placed it under the eaves of the utility room on the left.
With a wave of his hand, he activated the spiritual treasure "Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu Talisman" to connect the Pure Lotus and Tianluo Umbrella with the invisible and colorless Taichu spiritual power.
Pure Lotus is a magical magic weapon refined by Xu Ke using the "Magic of Transformation into Self-Contained Heavenly Demons". It is best at inducing the mind and manipulating people's hearts.
Using this as a guide can arouse the hearts and minds of millions of people in Liangcheng.
The Tianluo Umbrella is a Shinto magical weapon refined by Xu Ke using the "Yunzhong Dao Jing". Shinto? Dreaming is the basic operation.
The pure lotus attracts the mind, the heavenly umbrella supports dreams, and the Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu divine talisman uses the mirage water and moon technique to cast illusions. The combination of the three can create a "dream scene".
The foundation for dreaming is already in place.
This dream... how to play it, you still need to think about the script.
In ordinary daily life, there will naturally be no strong emotions. Unless they encounter an unstoppable disaster, people will not place their hopes on praying to God or worshiping Buddha.
If there were no evil demons and chaos in the world, how could the Buddha save the people?
The script is ready-made. As long as Xu Ke himself is removed, the plan of the High Priest Quanrong will definitely succeed. The alliance of the four factions will rebel, the Haoyang Sect will be destroyed, and the Manghe Sword Sect will resist to the death but will be unable to save the day.
On the vast plains, the Dog Rong raged and led the beasts to eat humans. Countless mortals became the blood food of the alien tribe of the Dog Rong.
In such an apocalyptic scene, how intense will be the good and evil thoughts, righteous thoughts and evil thoughts in people's hearts?
Under such circumstances, if a "god" who protects the common people can really have divine power, countless people will naturally believe in him. You don’t have to worry about the incense and your will power.
In this same situation, if a "devil" appears and preaches evil, how many people will be involved?
As for the final development of the plot, it depends on the specific results.
This is a TV series. You can't finish the dream in one night. It will take ten years to finish this dog army invasion and disrupt the dreams of the people.
In order to avoid excessive impact, it is necessary to intervene. After waking up from the dream during the day, the dream plot cannot be remembered, and the memory is restored after dreaming at night, and the dream sequence continues.
Xu Ke's own mind can also be invested in this dream, which is more effective than the normal experience of the mortal world.
It’s just a dream. Who hasn’t had a dream? This will not cause any harm to these dreamers.
It was such a happy decision.
then……
That night, Xu Ke activated the "Three-piece Dream Set" and started a dream that spread throughout Liangcheng.
This is a dream activated by the Lingbao "Hunyuan Yiqi Taichu Talisman", which is equivalent to the power of Yuanying level.
Even if there are some practitioners in the Qi refining stage in Liangcheng, they still don't notice that they have been mentally interfered and fell into a dream.
Tonight’s dream begins the first episode.
The alliance of four factions rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, and the female devil attacked Haoyang Mountain.
Without Xu Ke, he could control the catastrophe and kill the female devil. There was no Xu Ke to control the formation and destroy the teleportation formation. The plot took another turn.
The Haoyang Sect was destroyed, and countless practitioners fled in all directions.
The dog-rong army entered the hinterland of the vast plains through the teleportation array, burning, killing, looting and eating people everywhere, and the end of the world was coming.
In this case, Liangcheng was already in chaos before the Quanrong army could attack.
The royal family and senior officials of the Liang Kingdom fled first and fled to the Manghe area in the south. Without the management, Liangcheng's order completely collapsed.
All kinds of strange and weird things happened.
In Xu Ke's eyes, all kinds of evil thoughts, desires, and distractions poured into the Pure Lotus like a tide, making the lotus look more pure and holy, and even more filthy inside.
The effect is very good!
