fairy cage

Chapter 187
After curing Erniang's eye disease and arranging miscellaneous matters, Yu Lie left Yu's house in Qianjun that night. He waited in the crowded boat station and bought a ticket to Qianzhou Daocheng.

In the world of mountains and seas, according to the division of forces stipulated by the Taoist court, there are roughly three classes, namely prefectures, counties, and counties. It is the lowest class, including townships and villages.

Although he is already an eighth-rank Taoist, Yu Lie has a little status in Diving County, but when he boarded the boat, he found that it was just like the rumors, almost all of his contacts were Taoist, and there was no preferential treatment.

When he buys a ticket, he can only buy a ticket for a second-class seat.For the first-class seat, the Zhouche Office said that there was no ticket, but looking at the dead face of the salesperson, the other party obviously didn't bother to talk to him.

In addition to the second-class seats, the rest of the train can also buy tickets without seats, but this kind of ticket is not located in a regular car, it is not mixed with second-class seats, and it cannot stand on the aisle.

Seatless is located in the carriages of pack animals and monsters. People and animals are mixed together, the smell is unpleasant, and there is not even a window.

These tickets are exactly what Taoist disciples can buy, that is, the first-class nine-rank Taoist boy.

Regardless of whether you are middle-ranked or high-ranked, or a low-ranking mortal, you can only get on the car like an animal, and take the animal passage instead of the pedestrian passage.

All kinds of noisy voices rang in Yu Lie's ears.

He squeezed in the crowd, dawdled for a while, and then stepped into the boat that was as wide as a building.

"Taoists, apprentices of the immortal way, since they are apprentices, how can they make great achievements. I heard that the Taoists in ancient times were just existences of eating and drinking."

Suddenly, Luo Xiaofang asked: "Brother Yu, do you know why only the prefectural city is called 'Daocheng', and the counties and counties can't be called that?"

"Small place, Diving County, there is only one station here."

It is said that when we parted ways with She Shuangbai last time, in the restaurant where the two of them were, one of the waiters was a high-ranking Taoist boy, and the shopkeeper was a Taoist.

In the crowded crowd, their bodies were all stunned, causing many people to bump into each other, sparking bursts of spiritual light.

The other party identified Yu Lie's face, and said in surprise: "You look fresh and young, and it's the first time to go to Zhoucheng?"

But immediately, Yu Lie also came to his senses, and found that "[-] million" Taoists were not outrageous.

The Taoist surnamed Luo crossed his hands, walked up and down, and happened to find the seat next to Yu Lie, and then sat down comfortably with his Taoist robes, and bowed his hands towards Yu Lie in his spare time:

Among this group of newly promoted disciples, one of them may have already learned about this situation from the elders. The other party's eyes were surprised, but his face was still pretending to be calm, and he said with a light smile:

Before entering Qianzhou Daocheng, Yu Lie once again felt the clear hierarchy under the "Nine Grades Taoist Law" system.

It should be known that the original Heishui Town and the two surrounding Daoist towns are both a town with only a seventh-rank Taoist official, an eighth-rank Taoist can be domineering, and a ninth-rank high-ranking Taoist boy can also boss around.

The other party's words made the newly promoted disciples who walked with him look slightly embarrassed, and some people were shocked and shouted:
"Brother Luo is right! A man should aim far away!"

There is also a passenger who seems to be the same as him. The other party seems to be a new Taoist who is riding a dragon boat for the first time. He opened his mouth and whispered:
"A lot of people.", "A lot of disciples!"

This made Yu Lie secretly ponder in his heart:
"Such flying instruments are actually only used to see off guests in boats and carts. The Taoist just now was not walking on air, but on a flying carpet. The other party's cultivation base may only be the middle-level among the seventh-rank Taoist officials." inferior."

Although Taoist disciples walk in a crowd, like ordinary people going to a market, they are people with status after all, and they don’t really crowd shoulder to shoulder. They are all covered with body protection charms, which can also effectively prevent some thieves who are good at fishing in troubled waters. start.

It's just that the Heishui Town where Yu Lie used to be was too dilapidated and small, with insufficient background and lack of mortals, which made him feel uncomfortable with it.

Although the location of the restaurant at the station is special, Yu Lie was already surprised by this, but now he did not expect that the seventh-rank priests who were rarely seen face to face in the past saw five or six of them at a glance. Taoists even walked everywhere in the carriage.

Among them, when he was walking and moving slowly, just above the heads of the Taoists, guided by the Taoists in the standard Taoist robes in the boat and cart, he respectfully sent a Taoist into the dragon boat.

Another person opened his eyes from his doze, glanced at the person boarding the dragon boat looking for a seat, and muttered:

Such an exclamation immediately provoked the jokes of some Taoist disciples in the surrounding seats, and some chatted, "Where did this go?"

It wasn't until the Taoist on the exotic flying carpet on the top entered the dragon boat, and beside Yu Lie, there was a middle-aged Taoist who sighed and said two words:
"Divine consciousness."

An answer that completely surprised Yu Lie, saying:
"A city in Qianzhou covers [-] miles, and there are about [-] million permanent Taoists in the city."

It's just that although everyone staggered for a while, none of the Taoists dared to look up.

Among the Taoists who fly on the dragon boat, those who ride on the flying carpet are the most unremarkable.

This Taoist sat cross-legged on a flying carpet full of exotic styles. When passing by Yu Lie and the others, he inadvertently glanced at them from the corner of his eye, and a chilly feeling suddenly appeared in everyone. On the body of the Taoist.

"Poverty Luo Xiaofang, I have seen this fellow Taoist."

The man murmured: "In Diving County or the places below Diving County, we can live a decent life anyway, but it's not necessarily the case when we go to Daocheng."

It should be known that the size of a region of [-] miles is larger than the entire world in his previous life, and the world of mountains and seas is a world of immortals, not a dynasty of mortals. It has various methods of feeding people, and it can also feed foreign lands. One state can feed tens of billions of people It's not a problem at all, it just depends on whether you want it or not.

Outside the window, the scenery quickly reversed, and everyone suddenly felt lighter, and found that the dragon chariot had submerged in the sky, and the flowing clouds flew past, like flying clouds and fog.

This person shook his head: "The third-level forces in the prefecture, county and county, the county and below, are just places where the Taoist court raises the population. Living like a human in this kind of place is only able to show power over the heads of mortals." That's all.

The temperament of these people is impressive, and all of them are Taoists.

Yu Lie saw that this person seemed to have some knowledge in his words, but he didn't mind the familiarity of the other party, so he said politely, "Exactly, I'm a poor man."

Why care about these imaginary things?Dao karma is the most important thing. "

Out of the corner of his eye, Yu Lie could also see the carriages ahead, and there were also scattered Taoists flying on the upper deck of this row of dragon boats. Scattered and scattered.

Yu Lie and others stepped in, causing a slight commotion.

Not only Yu Lie was emotional, but also the few newly promoted Taoists who boarded the dragon boat with him also looked surprised.

According to the discussion in the dragon boat carriage, it seems that in the real Dao city, there is a vast world, and the eighth-rank Taoist will be directly inferior to a dog?

Yu Lie's heart moved, and he said curiously: "Brother Luo, please tell me."

"Haha! Be polite."

The gap between them was so great that for a while, Yu Lie had a feeling of living in Heishui Town in the past, as if he was living with dogs.

Just at this moment, the huge dragon carriage moved, and the entire carriage shook and swayed, causing the two of them to sway unceasingly.

Yu Lie was alone, listening to the discussion in the carriage, he was also full of sighs.

Hearing this, Yu Lie's eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself:
"Sure enough, this cold feeling is the feeling of being nakedly swept away by other people's consciousness. In this way, the Taoist just now is at least a Taoist official."

"That's too many people? When you get to Zhoucheng, you will know that few of you in the carriage can live like a human being."

Some people even began to doubt whether they should go to Daocheng after all.

Yu Lie had the courage to raise his head and look around, and found that the exotic flying carpet that the Taoist had just gotten into the car suddenly flew out of the boat, and then fell back to the side of the crew of the boat station, and was carefully swept up by the other party. stand up.

Yu Lie's pupils shrank: "Forty million Taoists!?"

"Even if the ninth-rank Taoists account for the vast majority of them, how many are eighth-rank, seventh-rank, and sixth-rank and above..." He was speechless for a moment.

He paused, his eyes brightened, and he stared out of the window: "From now on, Brother Yu, you and I are truly going to step into the world of Taoists and come into contact with the prosperous world of immortality!"

Hearing this, Yu Lie subconsciously asked, "How many Taoists are there in Zhoucheng?"

The two sat next to each other, and after exchanging pleasantries, they began to communicate with each other.

Luo Xiaofang pointed to the scene outside the window and said with a smile:
"Those in Taoist City, the sacred place of cultivating Taoism, belong to the place where true Taoists gather. In county towns and other places, there are still mortals, but in Taoist City, even those who pick up waste by the roadside are at least Taoist boys. Mortals cannot enter by themselves."

But even if the Taoist just now was just a seventh-rank Taoist official who had just broken through, compared with the current Yu Lie, the other party is still a whole level higher than Yu Lie, which is worthy of Yu Lie's envy.

They continued to step into the dragon boat in a crowded way, and when they finally stepped into the carriage, there were already many people sitting in it, all kinds of costumes, and some people were wearing strange clothes, and their tone was quite mixed.

"Besides, if there is no such a huge number of Taoists, how can the world of mountains and seas re-open the fairy world to raise immortals, and what should they use to conquer foreign lands?!"

Yu Lie was thinking excitedly, and also looked out the window.

From the perspective of ancient times, he is now finally leaving the mortal world and formally entering the realm of cultivation.

hold head high!
The dragon chariot moved across the sky, as huge as a mountain range, broke through the sky, and rushed towards Qianzhou Daocheng.
