Chapter 8 Volume A: Polygonum flowers bloom and the storm suddenly arises

"Brother Chen, want a piece?"

A young man with a round face and a slightly plump face came from the side hall opposite. His small eyes showed a bit of shrewdness. He smiled and raised a large roll of jade and wheat cakes in his hand.

Her hair is combed cleanly and smoothly, with a wooden hairpin inserted horizontally in her bun. She wears a gray shirt, a wooden pendant around her waist, white cloth leggings on her feet, and a pair of multi-eared hemp shoes.

It can be seen that although this person may have an average family background, he pays great attention to details.

Chen Huaisheng suddenly found that his memory suddenly improved a lot.

I worked too hard in my previous life, and my memory is not very good as I age.

Like last night, people with numbers 7 and 8 introduced themselves by name all at once. This would never work if the name and face must match the number.

But now I can clearly recall the other person's self-introduction at that time.

Huozhou Wei Wuyang, Chen Huaisheng had an impression.

After the Taoist Ming Dynasty, they were basically no longer able to eat the rice, wheat and millet that ordinary people eat every day. They could only eat the seeds of crops rich in spiritual energy such as jade, wheat, Jiahe, and spiritual rice produced in spiritual fields.

Eating common people's food will only increase the turbidity in the body, which is not conducive to spiritual practice. Even if it is eaten for a long time, it will degrade the body's functions and eventually degenerate into a common person.

"Brother Wei, I've already had breakfast." Chen Huaisheng smiled and patted his belly, "The morning meal is full of dew, so it's better to eat less."

The little fat man also laughed and squinted his eyes so hard that he couldn't see. "I can't do it. I haven't entered the Tao yet. I can't help but have an appetite. Most of my parcels are filled with cooking cakes and naan cakes."

Chen Huaisheng is also willing to make more friends with these people.

There are many sect disciples, many friends and many paths, who knows what will happen to them in the future, there is no harm in getting acquainted, and the benefits are free of charge.

"Are you ready to go?" Chen Huaisheng asked in surprise as he saw the little fat man carrying his baggage on his back.

"Not yet, we have to wait a moment. Master Yu wants to explore the surroundings to see if there is anything going on. Brother Chen is from here. This should be considered deep in Yushan Mountain, right?"

The little fat man is also very talkative. "It feels like I have traveled at least three to four hundred miles from my hometown of Huozhou."

Huozhou Mansion is located to the east of Yiyang Mansion. In my impression, it is about the same size as Yiyang Mansion.

"Let's just say, there are two fields and eight mountains in Liao County. If you go west and north, it will basically become mountains in Liao County."

Chen Huaisheng nodded and asked curiously: "I feel that you are all very vigilant. I see that Master Yu not only set up a magic circle to guard the night, but also set up a special police post. Is it because of the monster I mentioned?"

There was a mysterious look on the little fat man's face, "Not exactly, it seems that the Taoist master said that it doesn't seem very quiet here, so be careful. I heard that it was very simple to pick up disciples in the past, just take them and leave, but this time it seems to be for us

We have specially distributed sacred wood talismans. Brother Chen saw them yesterday. They are used to save lives. If we go to your Dingling Tomb today, we will probably know what is going on."

Not quiet? How can there be no quietness?

Chen Huaisheng was also a little puzzled.

There are six counties in Yiyang Prefecture. Dingling is the seat of the prefecture. It is located in the mountainous area with the three counties of Xiyang and Zhugao, Liao County, Pang County and Anfeng County.

Although it is located in the Yushan Mountains, it is still quite far away from the forbidden area in the hinterland of Yushan. I have not heard of any special circumstances.

For example, Guzhen, where Yuanbaozhai is located, is a purely mountainous area. Apart from being a little special because it is adjacent to Nanchu, there is nothing else to say about it.

However, Nanchu and Da Zhao have been living in peace for decades.

The center of Zhao's defense has always been in the west. The south and east are relatively calm. Even the people on the border have contacts with each other. Has there been any change after a few years of walking?

Once everything is packed up over there, everyone is ready to hit the road.

A Jianbu Talisman was struck on his waist, allowing Chen Huaisheng to once again see the extraordinary features of this large sect.

Originally, because of this mountain walking, ordinary people can only walk ten or twenty miles. Only strong people can do it. For Taoists like them, fifty or sixty miles is not a problem, but seventy or eighty miles is a bit difficult.

.

But as soon as the spiritual power of the Jianbu Talisman enters the body, I suddenly feel that the meridians throughout the body are smooth and the spiritual power is flowing.

Although it is a dangerous mountain path, he is as light as a swallow and can walk as fast as flying.

Chen Huaisheng was also shocked.

This kind of Jianbu Talisman is of little use to Yu Xianxian and Xuan Chimei, but it is very useful to people like Chen Huaisheng and Wei Wuyang who have not yet entered Taoism.

By the time it was getting dark, Dingling County, a hundred and sixty miles away, was already in sight.

We have to admit that these large sects have abundant resources and a complete range of categories. They have specialized supply support for weapons, magical weapons, talismans, robes and armor, elixirs, etc.

Everything costs a lot of money, beyond imagination.

The first place on the list of wealth and law lovers is wealth. If you don't have enough financial resources, you are not worthy of being called a big sect.

With emotion, Chen Huaisheng also followed the group into Dingling City, the administrative center of Yiyang Prefecture.

Combining the memories of the two people, Chen Huaisheng's impression of the city where his hometown is located in front of him is somewhat vague.

The family wanted to stay in their place of origin, but the poor family left for other places.

The Chen surname is one of the five major surnames in Yuanbaozhai, but the Chen Huaisheng family is relatively weak.

My parents died young, but my two uncles and one uncle are still here, but they are all lay people, and none of my cousins ​​are from a Taoist background.

My Ming Dao Bone triggered the incomparable excitement in this branch when I was seven years old. Unfortunately, my spiritual root has not awakened until I was fourteen years old.

Everyone knows that in this situation, one has relatively poor qualifications among Taoists.

But even so, it is still an innate Tao seed after all.

However, the Chen clan has a large number of people and complicated branches and vines, so several distant branches still have Dao species one after another.

There are approximately two to three hundred babies born in Yuanbaozhai every year. Generally speaking, the chance of Taoist seed appearing among them is uncertain, ranging from one person to at most four that year.

But on average, there are one to two people per year, with two people being the most common.

After Chen Huaisheng awakened his spiritual roots at the age of fourteen, he discussed it with his clan members and went out.

He did not even stay in Yiyang Prefecture and Yi County. He first went to Ji County, and then to Qiao County and Sui County to travel and seek Taoism.

But now he's back in despair.

Dingling City is much more lively and prosperous than the hometown of Liao County, and its population is much larger.

Although it can be seen that the lives of lay people outside the city are still hard and poor, but still relatively stable, you can also see cultivation disciples arrogantly walking on the streets in the city.

The group of people went to the gym.

This is a non-governmental organization in the cultivation world in Da Zhao, but it also has some semi-official properties.

All the major sects and aristocratic families communicate and coordinate through various Taoist temples, and the hosts of the Taoist temples are mostly local leaders in the monastic circles.

Looking at the exquisite and elegant gates of the Taoist temple, the strange and beautiful archways, and the Taoist temple towers with overhanging eaves and beams, they are even more magnificent and magnificent than the local government offices, which is enough to illustrate its influence.

Chen Huaisheng gradually began to look at everything around him with the mentality of this world.

To survive better, you must learn to understand the world.

After following a group of people inside, Chen Huaisheng felt that something was not right.

The gym was noisy, with some people arguing fiercely about something, and a few others looking gloomy, nervous, or angrily whispering to each other.

"How many times has this happened? We are still deceiving ourselves and others by hiding our illness and avoiding medical treatment. Next time it will be us!" A man with a red face and a wide mouth roared angrily.

"Last year's incident was investigated for a long time, but it turned out that there was no result. Then there were two cases in succession, but still no result and nothing was left. Now this kind of thing happens again. Shouldn't everyone think carefully about how to deal with it?"

"Brother Taoist, please be patient. This time we must all discuss and come up with a result. It will definitely not be the same as before."

Another monk with a rather celestial spirit and a black robe had a gloomy look on his face.

"This time something happened to my junior brother from the Lingyun Sect. Aren't we angry and anxious? But we must have an investigation direction, right?"

"Hmph, just sitting and talking like this, can we find the suspect?"

The broad-mouthed man who was called Brother Dao spoke in a slightly softer tone, but there was still a hint of sarcasm in his words.

"It was also this time that it fell on you, the Lingyun Sect, so you started to get anxious. In the past few times, you were the most careless and found various excuses to evade..."

Being stabbed in the lungs by the opponent, the black-robed monk suddenly lost his guard and his face became ugly.

"Brother Wu, are you deliberately looking for trouble? Isn't it the time for everyone to work together to tide over the difficulties? It's so unfair to say such sarcastic words!"

There were several people around who saw the two arguing and subconsciously looked at the middle-aged monk who had been rubbing his chin in thought.
