God and mystery

Chapter 259
The world of mortals is in harmony, and the smoke and clouds are connected.Yingtianfu was originally the original capital of the Ming court. Even after the capital was moved to Shuntian, Yingtianfu still had a set of six teams, and because it was located in the south of the Yangtze River, no matter in terms of population density or prosperity, it was like all the beautiful words in the world. , have been blessed to the name of this ancient capital city.

Because Shuntian Mansion is close to the border, under the background of prosperity, the sights that are often seen are usually the officers and soldiers patrolling, and occasionally there will be generals appearing. The most common thing people in the north see is weapons and swords.

But in Yingtian, these things cannot be seen.

There is only the most sinking thing in the world here.

Here, there is no scourge of war.

Here, singing and dancing are peaceful.

There are celebrities who are full of pride and talk about world affairs with a smile, and there are even high-ranking officials who spend money like water.

The painted boats on the Qinhuai River are like stars in the sky. The boats are connected end to end, and there are non-stop melodious singing day and night. , there are one hundred and three industries, and sixteen prosperous big bazaars.

Ji Xiang's friend, Matteo Ricci, had already been to Yingtian before going to Shuntian. When he got here, he almost lingered here. If it wasn't for the missionary business, he almost didn't want to go back to his hometown.

Therefore, even in the vicinity of Yingtianfu, there are 36 guards.

But the people in Yingtianfu have not seen a war for many years.

The sword is sheathed, and the horse is released to Nanshan.

Moreover, the city scale of Yingtianfu is much larger than that of Shuntianfu.

After arriving in Yingtian, Ji Xiang, who had been silent for a long time, faintly began to churn.

Gradually, it began to merge with the national prestige and divine power contained in Yingtian Mansion.

"The national prestige can be used. After all, it is one of the two capitals. Even if the soldiers in the guard are corrupt, the national prestige is still protecting the people here."

"But it's only limited to fighting monsters. This thing is not safe."

But anyone who has experienced the Forbidden City incident will no longer believe that Guowei is a force that can 100% resist the means of demons.

It's like practice is to intercept a ray of life, there is absolutely no perfect thing in this world, as long as this thing exists, there must be loopholes to exploit.

The patron saint of Shuntian Mansion is Doumu Yuanjun.

Ying Tianfu's guardian deity is Ziwei Yandu Dijun.

It is also the great god who is in charge of the stars in the sky.

"It's really the same. Shuntian Mansion really looks like a copy of Ying Tianfu, no, it should be called a high imitation pirated version."

Likewise, there is also a palace here.

This palace is also called the "Forbidden City"!
From a distance, you can see the thick national prestige covering the palace. It is as thick as a dark cloud. Even if you look at it from a distance, you can't breathe. Of course, people who are not monks can't see it.

The population density here is too high, and the city scale is the largest that Ji Xiang has ever seen. Among them, there are at least seventy or eighty temples, not to mention hundreds. Ji Xiang couldn't find the location now.

Fortunately, the news of the Dengxian Conference has already spread all over the city. Of course, ordinary people don't know what will happen. They just heard that this grand event was initiated by the government. All in all, it is just a carnival. smell, while the scholars smelled the fragrance of courtesans.

Ji Xiang couldn't help thinking of Feng Menglong.

This guy seemed to say that he was going to see the Qinhuai River Lantern Festival, but now that he is almost in Wudang, he probably won't be able to see it.

But fortunately, when they ransacked those branches of the White Lotus Sect, they got some useful treasures.

I didn't get many scriptures, but there were quite a lot of strange things.

Ji Xiang is holding a palm-sized small mirror. This mirror is called a photo mirror. Its effect is similar to that of a camera. It can reflect the scenery in the mirror and preserve it. It was originally created by a branch leader with great painstaking efforts to fool the masses. thing.

Ji Xiang was going to save some more images, and turned around to show Feng Menglong. After all, that guy had listened to his own suggestion, and ran back to Wudang Mountain with the little fox to take refuge instead of watching this grand event. Let him make up for it, so that In the future, when I borrow books from him and wish to read, I will have a more legitimate reason.

While filming, I saw many scholars reciting poems to the girls in the boat on the bank.

"It's no wonder that Zhiguai is full of scholars and witches, and there are almost no candidates. I'm afraid it's because the candidates are all ready to attack the officials. Those who have no money are preparing for the exam at home, and those who are rich are colluding with the officials to clear the way. , there is no time to come out to flirt with girls, in other words, because the scholars failed in the exam, they are all free."

"Speaking of which, when I came here before, I was a little restless, as if some disaster had happened again, but this feeling disappeared soon, which is really strange."

Ji Xiang shook his head. The last time we cleaned up the group of demons in Phoenix Mountain, the number of demons above primordial spirits killed in the Chapter of Subduing Demons only stayed at nine, and the last one was short of the second level of cultivation. It's a pity Along the way, the powerful monsters on the ground seemed to have disappeared, and they could not be found at all.

"It's not like I just killed the group of monsters in Phoenix Mountain, and the wild monsters in other places have heard my name so quickly and become frightened, right?"

Ji Xiang turned his head slightly. In the crowd, there were a few people who looked like monks. They didn't dare to look at Ji Xiang, but there was hostility in their eyes, and the mana traces on their bodies made Ji Xiang feel familiar.

Moreover, after Ji Xiang watched them, they seemed to "wake up" from a certain state.

The ears moved slightly, and Ji Xiang's five senses were improved to a certain extent in such a place shrouded in such a majestic national prestige, so although the distance was slightly far away, he could still hear what they were saying.

".I don't know why, but I feel resentful when I see this person."

"...Could it be that this person has a relationship with our Huaguang faction?"

The few monks whispered to each other, this time their expressions were truly unkind, rather than being affected by some kind of force.

Ji Xiang also understood their identities. They turned out to be members of the Huaguang Sect. Because of the psychic incident in Dingjia City, he was watched by Emperor Huaguang. All the monks of the Huaguang Sect would passively regard themselves as enemies. And I can't use any spells of Emperor Huaguang's superior real body, that is, "Taiyi Thunder and Unmovable Heaven".

"Certainly."

Ji Xiang watched them approach aggressively, and didn't want to deal with these junior monks, so he raised his hand easily. In their eyes, they only saw Ji Xiang raised a finger and opened his mouth.

That final word, obviously far away, seemed to ring clearly in the ears.

hum!Several monks froze all over suddenly, maintained their walking posture, and stood motionless in the middle of the road.The people behind bumped into them without noticing for a moment, so they started to curse.

"Why are you standing in the middle of the road! You must be sick!"

Passers-by looked at these unmoving monks strangely, while some Westerners were full of curiosity. They didn't know if this was a new rule of the Ming Dynasty, but it was those idle scholars who saw these people who caused a lot of trouble. The commotion, full of confidence, came to point out Jiangshan, beaming with joy and foaming at the mouth:

"You don't understand, this is an old story in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it's an elegant trip!"

"It is said that Emperor Wei Wen once learned the behavior of a donkey and imitated the sound of a donkey, because doing so would make his inspiration come out continuously. The seven sons of Jian'an also learned similar things, so if they stand still, these days My dear friend, you must be imitating the behavior of the tortoise!"

As for the monks, they watched Ji Xiang disappear into the vast sea of ​​people. Seeing Ji Xiang's mouth shape and being able to read Ji Xiang's lip language, it seemed that you should not move around here.

In the end, only a meaningful back view was left for them.

The eyes of those monks from the Huaguang Sect were blazing. They are monks, and they can't completely freeze their consciousness, so they still retain the state of thinking. The teeth were itchy. Fortunately, Ji Xiang didn't hold them for long. Several people saw Ji Xiang disappear into the vast crowd. After a while, the few scholars hadn't left yet, and the monks felt that they had resumed their actions!
Then, he punched an outspoken scholar in the face!

"You, Qiu Ba, learned how to be a tortoise. Climb for me!"

Several monks from the Huaguang faction severely punished the scholars. Of course, there were also people with backgrounds among the scholars, crying and howling to make these "brothers" pay the price in blood and tears. The monks also directly reported their identities and said that we See you at your bedside tonight.

The scholar was so frightened that he ran away in a flash, covering his face and scolding his mother.

"What about that person, he ran away!"

"What kind of spell is this, hold spell?"

The few monks of the Huaguang Sect looked for Ji Xiang at this time, but naturally they couldn't find him. They saw Ji Xiang disappear just now, and felt a little frightened by this unpredictable method of immobilization.

However, Ji Xiang's behavior was still noticed by interested people.

Of course I saw it by accident.

But the predestined relationship comes from unintentional.

"?"

"Gods and gods?"

The gorgeously dressed girl saw the place where Ji Xiang disappeared by the side of the painting boat. She widened her eyes and tried to find it but couldn't find it. She also held a pipa inlaid with jewels in her hand.

"Sister, yes, there are immortals!"

The curtain in the painting boat was raised, and the half face revealed was that of Qin Nvxiu.

"Fairy? There will be more gods coming in a few days. They are just monks. There are only three real gods in this world."

"One is my grandfather, one is my younger brother, and the other is me."

"Wuxia'er, you will be my disciple from now on, don't make a fuss when you see a monk, it's too embarrassing for Master and me."

"What kind of immortal assembly is this? It seems that some immortals will come. If you see your two ancestors, you should say hello."

Qin Nvxiu fiddled with the girl's face, but the girl was a little dazed and cautious, nodding her head desperately.

In the painting boat, the old lady of the brothel was kidnapped by Qin Nvxiu, staring with frightened eyes, not daring to look at this beautiful woman.

The girls around are surrounded by the old lady, all looking a little dazed, not knowing what this woman is going to do.

"I said auntie, your painting boat belongs to me now, is it all right?"

The old lady shook her head like a rattle.

Qin Nvxiu glanced at her, the knife in her hand trembled slightly, and her tone was playful:
"Right, one more thing."

"Auntie, I smelled it. Why is there a monster on you?"

The sound of calling made Ji Xiang feel it.

"Is it a test of the Dao Demon Tribulation?"

With the idea of ​​taking a look at the situation and following the call, when Ji Xiang walked out the next step, the scenery around him changed slightly.

This is entering the scope of a Ten Demon Small Calamity.

Someone was going through the ten small calamities, but Ji Xiang realized at this time that he could actually enter the devil's calamity.

Standing not far away is a Daoist demon, this is a real Daoist, not a counterfeiter in Phoenix Mountain, so when Ji Xiang entered the illusion of Demon Tribulation, the Daoist demon noticed Ji Xiang Appearance of the elephant.

He was just surprised, how could there be a second person appearing in the calamity?
A job is a job, and off-site help is not allowed in the exam.

However, next, his expression changed from surprise, to doubt, to anger, to shock, and finally to fear.

The sense of oppression from the upper demon is an absolute gap in level!

Demon King!

The demon leader of the trial road is confused!

It's just a little cultivator crossing the catastrophe, how could it be possible to alarm the demon king from the sky to descend?
"Quietness is not enough, seeing things in the road gives rise to a greedy thought, and attracting the demons in the environment to show up, that is, the demons in the heart."

There are many treasures of money, treasures, treasures, even fairy treasures, and even nine-turn elixir in this illusion, but they are all changed by the illusion.

The cultivator who had crossed the tribulation was erasing these treasures of money and treasures of the fairy family, all of which were caused by his evil thoughts, and when he suddenly saw Ji Xiang appearing, he was stunned for a moment.

It's really strange, I haven't seen this person before, why does he appear in my "greedy demon"?
So the cultivator attacked Ji Xiang, thinking that Ji Xiang was coming from a magical thought, which frightened the demon, and immediately came out to stop it. In an instant, a large mountain of gold and silver drowned the cultivator who had crossed the robbery, and the latter was shocked !
The difficulty of this test paper is wrong!

I am not so greedy for so many gold and silver mountains!

"what?"

Ji Xiang was originally concentrating on studying the illusion of the devil, but now he noticed the movement between the heart demon and the monk. Seeing that the monk was about to be crushed to death by the treasure mountain of gold and silver in the illusion, he stretched out his hand and flicked the mountain of gold and silver. It turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared without a trace.

The inner demon was also terrified, and hurriedly showed up and bowed, indicating that the monk's catastrophe had passed perfectly.

Ji Xiang nodded, then left in another direction, and then sensed more demonic illusions.

"There are quite a lot of monks in Yingtian Mansion."

So on this day, many monks who were going through the catastrophe suddenly saw a young Taoist priest in soap clothes. The evil calamity that lasted for a long time has passed in an instant.

And the name of the demon king proclaimed by some demon lords was also heard by some monks in the illusion of the catastrophe, but they had never heard of any demon king who looked like this.

On the contrary, many people suddenly became excited because of the accidental incident of this day.

The demon king recommended it to the sky and listed it in the realm of the Three Purities. This is a precursor to becoming a fairy!

It turns out that I myself am the legendary proud son of heaven!
Whether the mentality is inflated or not determines the success or failure of the next catastrophe when they cross the catastrophe in the future, but these people don't know it.

And Ji Xiang also suddenly discovered that those demonic thoughts can be condensed by himself as they continue to manifest in the demonic realm.

This evil thought is gathering more and more, getting bigger and bigger, and the degree of danger is getting higher and higher. If it is allowed to fly out and possess someone, within a few years, there will be an extra terrifying head in this world. The big monster is coming.

But Ji Xiang gave these magic thoughts a complete form and spirit.

After being endowed with form and spirit, Mo Nian made a terrifying grinding sound, but the next moment, it was chopped off by Ji Xiang!
hum!A mysterious and mysterious supreme artistic conception appeared!

The inside scene god card is displayed!The tenth primordial-level monster needed for the Chapter of Subduing Demons was killed here!
"The demonic thoughts of all peoples are gathered together, endowed with form and spirit, and they are also a great demon."

"Chapter of Subduing Demons, the second level!"
