In the city lord's palace, Empress Jiang Shen explained the information obtained.
After hearing what she said, the Confucian gentleman sighed: "Hey, it's a pity."
Their expectations were too high at first, but as a result, this new middle five realm didn't know what it looked like, and it didn't know its realm.
The most regrettable thing is that this person is probably just passing by and may not come to Maiyue City. And now that so much time has passed, how can he find him if he continues to look for him.
"No matter what, this is barely good news, just in case." Seeing the depressed atmosphere, the City God said.
Among the people here, he is the only one who is a local monk in Maiyue Mansion, and he is the most concerned about the situation in the city.
For example, the Confucian gentleman with the highest realm was sent by Kuzhou Academy, while Liu Jiangyan, the empress of Jiang Shen, was sent by the imperial court.
As for the military monk named Xin Jiaxuan, he happened to be passing by and drew his sword to help.
There are only so many five realms in a Daqian country. It is not easy to gather four of them in such a short time.
"During the recruitment in the past few days, more than ten monks from the lower five realms have arrived, but now the most important thing is to need the power above the cave realm."
The Confucian gentleman rubbed his chin and ended the topic, "In any case, I have been paying more attention to the monks entering the city recently."
Then, Liu Jiangyan asked the question that everyone was most concerned about: "The collapse of the reincarnation formation here has been reported for half a month. I wonder how long it will take for Bai Yujing and the seniors of the upper five realms from the Confucian Temple to arrive?"
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Huang and Xin Jiaxuan also raised their heads and looked at the Confucian gentleman.
Since ancient times, the three giants of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism have each performed their own duties.
Taoist Bai Yujing was born, responsible for intimidating the monks in the world and spying on the changes in the world;
The Confucian Confucian Temple joined the world and was responsible for managing the fortunes of major dynasties and the rise and fall of humanity;
The Buddhist holy mountain Bodhisattva lies somewhere between the two.
As for the Samsara Formation, it was a great formation created by three saints from Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism two hundred years ago. The formation has points all over the world.
Maiyue Mansion is one of them. Some time ago, the formation here was broken for no reason. For such a big event, the city god immediately reported to the court.
But after waiting for half a month, there is still no arrival of the powerful master of the upper five realms.
"I don't know either. I haven't received any news yet."
The Confucian scholar touched the "Nothing" sign around his waist and looked in the direction of the Confucian Temple. He also hoped that someone powerful would come.
The words "Shangwujing" carry too much weight.
Even the national master of Daqian Kingdom and the mountain chief of Kuzhou Academy are only in the Nascent Soul realm. They seem to be only one realm away from the upper five realms, but in fact they are like a ravine in the sky.
Once the upper five realm monks join, the current dilemma will be solved.
...
Two days later, at dusk.
The red sun sank into the Western Mountains, and outside the mottled walls of Maiyue City, there was a buzz of people.
The ancient official road connects the city gate. On both sides of the official road, simple bamboo sheds are next to each other.
Under the bamboo shed, there were many people squatting or standing. Some of them were cooking dinner, and some were chatting with their hands. The outside of the city was as lively as a vegetable market.
"It's been half a month, why haven't you put it in yet?"
"How long do I have to wait? I just went out to the city to chop some wood and firewood, and now I won't even let me go back home."
"Don't ask, just wait quietly. My master used gold to build a road, but he can't even get into the city."
There are also some rich people among these people who want to secretly give some money to the officers and soldiers and make them look blind.
It's just strange that the officers and soldiers who were jealous of the money before not only refused to accept it this time, but also beat up the person who gave the money.
At this moment, a commoner pointed at the city gate with a look of surprise on his face: "Look! There is a short winter melon going to the city gate to seek death!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone outside the city stopped what they were doing and looked towards the city gate.
I saw a short old man on crutches walking slowly under the city wall and talking to the soldiers guarding the city.
The people watching the excitement had already figured it out, and the old man was driven back to the scene by random arrows.
As a result, the old man stretched out his arm, opened his palm, and a ball of fire was generated in his hand.
"It's the Immortal Master!" the people said in unison.
"Giggle." The city gate was opened by the officers and soldiers. The old man put away the flame in his hand and slowly entered the city.
After a while, the city gate was closed again, and the officers and soldiers continued to resume their selfless behavior, while the people outside the city began to discuss heatedly.
"How many immortals is this in recent times!?"
"Sure enough, only immortal masters can enter the city. It would be nice if I were an immortal."
"With your appearance, how can the old gentleman just come out of nowhere?"
The human eye always automatically beautifies those things that are out of reach.
None of them realized that the immortal that everyone now calls Miao Miao was called Dwarf Winter Melon by them before.
Sudden,
Another person made a sound of surprise. He pointed at the man riding a bull on the official road and shouted: "Look, everyone! Someone is passing by again!"
"Isn't it the Immortal Master again?"
"No...it's impossible."
They said it was impossible, but this time, everyone was careful in their words and deeds, and did not dare to give nicknames to people on the road.
It is said that immortals have extraordinary hearing. If they are really immortals, but they are still the kind to hold grudges, they will be in big trouble.
On the official road outside the city gate.
Yi Ning hung the wine gourd back on his waist, and then jumped off Ting Wu.
Naturally, he listened clearly to everything the people said, and he listened for a long time.
Yi Ning got a rough idea of the current situation in Maiyue City from their conversation.
"Closing the city and only allowing monks to enter?"
Yi Ning walked slowly towards the city gate, thinking about whether to enter the city.
After making a plan a few days ago, Yi Ning's plan was to avoid exposing his own strength until he knew the world's top combat power.
The pool of water I have accumulated so far is not enough to cope with a protracted battle, and if the power of merit is not enough to cope with the top experts, then the joke is too big, I am afraid that I will be skinned alive for study.
Of course, this does not mean that he will become a coward. If he meets someone who has no conscience, Yi Ning would not mind pretending to be a regular monk.
Along the way, he also roughly figured out the ratio between the amount of pool water consumed and the power of the spell.
For example, Yi Ning can now pull up the smallest amount, which is a drop of pond water. After hitting it, it can probably exert the power of the sword repair sword in Qianniu Village.
He was quite dissatisfied with this. It wasn't that it was too powerful, but that it was too lethal.
This made Yi Ning want to teach some bandits and gangsters who committed crimes that would not lead to death, but it was difficult to do so.
Thinking about things in his mind, he walked under the city wall without realizing it.
"Who is here, an immortal master?" On the city wall, an officer and soldier was very angry.
"I am a relative of the local government official Zhang Chenglin. I brought him some dumplings. Can the sergeant help deliver them?"
Yi Ning still decided not to enter the city. With the city closed like this, something must have happened in the city.
But for now, it seems that there is no bloody atmosphere in the city, and the people should be fine, so he is too lazy to go in and wade in the muddy water.
The soldier did not answer immediately and seemed to be talking to someone else.
After a while, the soldier shouted again: "We don't know Zhang Chenglin. The city has been closed recently. You can wait outside the city."
Sure enough, you can't get in without exposing your strength...
Yi Ning was not discouraged and led Ting Wu towards the bamboo sheds on both sides of the official road.
The things promised to others must be completed naturally, but it is getting late today, and if you want to enter the city, you will have to do it tomorrow. It is better to take this time to chat with the people outside the city and get to know the customs.
The people outside the city saw the bull rider turning back, which disappointed those who were prepared to worship the immortal family's methods and booed.
It was also at this time that the sun completely set behind the horizon.
Darkness gradually came, and the sound of "whirring" wind sounded from the city.
The sound was loud, but the people seemed not to hear it and continued to do their own things.
In front of the bamboo shed, Yi Ning stopped. He turned back and looked into the city, his brows already furrowed into the character "Chuan".
He was too familiar with the sudden burst of aura in Fucheng.
This is the breath of reincarnation!
