At the gate of a majestic city, a young man wearing an ordinary blue shirt, carrying a package on his shoulders, was lined up behind a group of merchants, preparing to enter the city. This young man in a blue shirt was Jining.
Time flies, and after about a year, he finally arrived in Jining, Luodu, the first city of Lu.
Jining looked up at a majestic city. The wide moat and towering city walls show the majesty of this city, and the wide and towering city walls!
Such a majestic city made Jining feel the majestic scene when the city was built. Folk rumors say that in order to build the Luodu City Wall, nearly 100,000 laborers were requisitioned, several mountains were dug and leveled, and it took three years to complete!
This city is Luodu City, the capital of the Lu State. This is the legendary Luodu City that can conquer all nine states with one city!
All kinds of buildings in Luodu City are basically built around Buzhou Mountain. Buzhou Mountain stretches for nearly a hundred miles, and Luodu City has a population of nearly ten million. The State of Lu had nine states and counties under its jurisdiction, and the population of Luodu actually exceeded the population of some smaller states and counties.
Therefore, there are rumors that the Luodu of the Lu Kingdom has been prosperous since ancient times, and that Luodu can overwhelm Kyushu with one city.
Thinking back on the journey he walked over the past year, Jining sighed inwardly, feeling the huge difference between monks and ordinary mortals!
Although he also encountered some thieves and highway robbers who dominated the mountains along the way, Jining, who had already reached the seventh level of Qi training, occasionally exuded a strong sense of oppression, which frightened those young people. Trembling and running away.
During the trip, I passed through some villages and towns and occasionally stopped for a few days to rest. When I met some civilians who were seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment, I felt their despair. Jining will also feel unable to bear it and take action to treat him.
I have also studied medicine and pharmacy from my master since I was a child, and I am a monk who practices the seventh level of the Secret of Immortality. For those diseases that mortal pharmacists consider to be incurable, which diseases can be treated like ordinary ailments under the nourishment of spiritual energy, the medicine can cure them!
However, along the way, the thieves and highway robbers who were kings of the mountain retreated on their own when they saw him. Some thoughtful merchants discovered the clues, so these merchants followed closely not far from Jining. Later, when they saw Jining, they showed no displeasure, and more and more merchants followed Jining, gradually forming a huge team.
As the team behind them became larger and larger, the robbers did not dare to take action. From then on, they basically encountered no harassment from thieves along the way. However, when Jining arrived in Lu State, he escaped alone and left quietly!
This unintentional act on the road to Jining has become a legend in the land of Jining and Shandong. In folklore, a magical old horse drives a carriage, and in the carriage sits a special young man. This young man has a noble character and a heart of compassion. His footprints on the East Continent have given him a lasting impression. The common people of Dongzhou brought the good news.
But later on, this legendary young man turned into a monk with white beard and hair. At another time, he was said to be a fairy sent by God to help the poor people. There are many opinions in the world!
Entering Luodu City, the huge arched city gate built of black granite shows the specialness of this ancient city. The shade of the arch under the city wall was crowded with fortune tellers, beggars and some hooligans; the streets were crowded with people, cars and horses, and ordinary people, small traders, tourists and some well-dressed dignitaries mingling around.
Looking at the bustling Luodu City, it seems crowded, but there is something inexplicably kind about it.
Jining saw a mountain in Luodu City from a distance. On the high peak stood a simple and majestic stone tower. He heard that the history of this stone tower was much earlier than that of Luodu City. It turns out that this mountain is Buzhou Mountain, a famous mountain in Dongzhou. According to legend, Wang Yangming, a saint of Dongzhou, passed away in Buzhou Mountain. His disciples built a stone pagoda on Buzhou Mountain to commemorate him.
Although Jining came to Luodu this time, it was to fulfill Mr. Yu’s ten-year agreement! I know that Mr. Yu is no ordinary scholar, but I have always been surprised by his ten-year appointment! However, Jining gradually gained some insights, the reincarnation of cause and effect, the destiny of sowing cause and effect! The constraints on cultivators seem to be even greater than those of ordinary people!
Jining calculated the time of the ten-year agreement that year, and it should be two or three months before the agreed time. So I didn't plan to go to the Yu family immediately, but first got to know each other in Luodu City and wanted to know something about the Yu family. Although he is a monk, he rarely interacts with ordinary people. From my previous experience, I discovered that there are smart and cunning people everywhere in the world. There must be many strange people and strangers among the nearly ten million people in Luodu City!
Seeing that it was still early, I walked around the city first and then looked for an inn!
Jining walked on the streets of Luodu City. From the direction of entering the city, this should be the east side of Luodu City. Looking at the dilapidated buildings and ordinary people on the street, he could see that the east side of Luodu City lived there. Most of them should be poor common people.
Walking towards Buzhou Mountain in the center of the city, Jining gradually discovered that the houses on the streets near the center of Luodu City became more luxurious. From the chats of street vendors, Jining gradually gained a general understanding of Luodu City.
As he expected, the east of Luodu City is considered a poor gathering area of Luodu City. Since there is a plain outside Luodu City to the east, it can also be regarded as the granary of Luodu City. Most of the civilians living in the east of the city make a living by planting. ; The dynasty of the Lu State was located in the west of Luodu City near Buzhou Mountain, which was also the center of Luodu City; the north of Luodu City was close to the Thousand Island Kingdom on the edge of the Endless Sea of Dongzhou, so maritime trade was very prosperous, and the north of Luodu City was also It gradually became the commercial center of Luodu; and the beautiful mountainous scenery in the south of the city became a gathering place for the residences of Lu kings, princes and nobles.
Wandering all the way to the center of Luodu City, Jining soon saw a huge lake in the city, which was located at the foot of Buzhou Mountain. The green willows on the shore set off the lake, which is extremely beautiful. The water in the lake is crystal clear, and the small fish in the water sometimes jump out of the water, creating slight waves on the surface of the lake! The few small boats in the lake look particularly poetic in the sunset!
Listening to the words of the tourists next to him, Jining learned that this lake is called Ming Lake. It is said to commemorate the saint Wang Yangming, and the last character in his name is the name of the lake! Looking at the beautiful Ming Lake, Jining felt a little relaxed and happy. Not far away, he saw a simple and elegant inn decorated by the lake. The plaque at the door of the inn said Louwailou, so he planned to stay in this inn first.
Jining walked into the building outside the building. There was a waiter standing at the door of the store looking at Jining's ordinary clothes with some disdain in his eyes. He looked at Jining with an indifferent expression, as if he wanted to tell Jining that this is not a place for everyone to live. !
However, Jining didn't care and was about to go to the counter to find a room to live in. At this time, two well-dressed men walked in outside. They looked like they were the sons of officials. When the store clerk saw these two people, he hurriedly stepped forward with a charming smile on his face and said, "Master Zhang and Master Deng are coming upstairs today." Outer building, what needs a little help?”
The two men looked at the store clerk with condescending and somewhat contemptuous eyes. One of the young men threw a gold ingot to the store clerk and said that he would reserve two upper rooms, and then asked the store clerk to arrange a table of wine and food in the guest room. The shop assistant stared at the golden gold, his face even more flattering and he responded quickly.
At this time, the shopkeeper at the counter heard the waiter's greeting and ran out quickly. Jining saw a short, fat middle-aged man wearing a silk and satin gown running out and nodding and bowing to greet the two young men.
The short and fat shopkeeper and the waiter only care about greeting the two officials' sons. Jining next to them is like air in their eyes!
Jining had no choice but to stand on the side and wait. Seeing the store owner's accommodating attitude, he felt a little emotional!
Jining waited for a while. After the shopkeeper finally arranged the room for the two officials, he saw Jining. He only saw Jining wearing ordinary cloth with a dusty package on his back, and there was a trace in his eyes. A hint of contempt.
His hidden look of disdain did not escape Jining's eyes, but Jining didn't care about a mortal's eyes.
The middle-aged shopkeeper was waiting for Jining to speak, so he said with some disdain: "Louwailou is one of the top ten restaurants in Luodu. The people who come here are all the royal children and dignitaries. You are wearing shabby clothes, so you should leave quickly! "
Jining was originally a little disdainful of this short, fat shopkeeper with a smooth beard, but now that he saw such a powerful villain, he no longer planned to live here and was ready to find another place.
However, looking at such an arrogant short and fat shopkeeper, he decided to teach this short and fat shopkeeper a lesson. Jining walked out of the door of Louwailou Inn, turned around and said to the shopkeeper with a smile: "I don't know the shopkeeper's name, I just watched your eyes. You are godless, your hall is dark, and your speech is incoherent. I see you will not be able to escape the bloody disaster today!"
The short and fat shopkeeper heard that this young man in ordinary clothes actually cursed him with a bloody disaster, and he was furious: "You dare to talk nonsense, you dare to talk nonsense, get out of this store immediately!!!" Then he shouted to the waiter in the store: "Prepare sticks. , make this yellow mouth smaller...!"
Before the shopkeeper could finish his words, the shopkeeper suddenly scratched his neck and rolled his eyes, opening his mouth and exhaling loudly, as if his body was filled with evil and unable to move! Then the wine cabinet filled with wine fell down inexplicably behind the shopkeeper. In an instant, the wine jars on the cabinet poured down on the short and fat shopkeeper. In an instant, the short and fat shopkeeper was hit with blood all over his face and fell unconscious!
Several of the waiters didn't care about the others and ran over to see the shopkeeper. Then several of them helped the short and fat shopkeeper and carried him out. It seems that he is going to seek treatment from a doctor!
Seeing that Jining had already taught the shopkeeper a lesson, Jining didn't want to go into details and continued walking to the street outside.
