Chapter 2 The North-South Controversy
("readerFs").className = "rfs_" + rSetDef()[3]
In many ancient books, "Spiritual Wasteland" has been described.
In the scriptures of the world of practice, more special terms are "Dharma End of End of Spirit".
This is just a very simple natural phenomenon between heaven and earth.
The kind of spiritual energy that cannot be felt by ordinary people at all, but for practitioners is the source of power. At a certain period, it begins to gradually become thinner.
The practitioners rely on absorbing spiritual energy to transform into their true energy. The spiritual energy becomes thinner, and the states that can be easily reached in the past will become difficult, especially for new practitioners, the more difficult it is to catch up with the previous practitioners.
Not only people, but also those spiritual medicines that could naturally absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and can be used to improve the cultivation of practitioners will also grow slowly and even die directly due to the lack of spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"In the entire world of cultivators, there are three recorded spiritual desolation in total, with a shorter than 60 years and a longest of nearly 200 years." Chen Baowan was not calm, but she learned the exact news very early, and she had this temperament, so her expression was still very dull: "According to various signs, what is most likely now is that the spiritual desolation we happened to encounter is neither short nor long, and it is probably lasting for about a hundred years."
Lin Yi came back to his senses and smiled bitterly: "Even for sixty years, it is the same for us. It is enough to affect our lives, and it doesn't matter how long it takes."
Chen Baowan nodded.
The key is that the speed of spiritual wasteland in the south is faster than that in the north.
There are beams in the south.
In the six years since Emperor Wu of Liang ascended the throne, to be fair, he was considered a good emperor who worked hard to govern. He was much better than the emperors of the previous dynasty. The prosperous and prosperous Jiankang City is a microcosm of the entire Liang Dynasty.
But there is more than one beam in the world.
There is Wei in the north.
Fifteen years ago, Emperor Xiaowen of Wei had already unified the north and moved the capital to Luoyang, just like a tiger looking at the south. Even though the Liang Dynasty is so prosperous now, it is only a stalemate with Wei Nanbei.
It can be said that the success of Emperor Wu of Liang was not only because of the foolish emperors of the previous dynasty, but also because of the pressure of the continuous southward advance of the Wei Dynasty in the Northern Territory, and the officials in the court had no confidence in the rule of the previous dynasty emperors.
"Is it going to fight a big battle?" Lin Yi took a deep breath, looked at her quietly, and said.
Chen Baowan turned her head and looked at his eyes without saying a word.
it goes without saying.
The north is a tiger and wolf. In the past, the north invaded south, but the current situation forces the south to invade north.
Lin Yi felt sad that his parents were all laying horses in the border army, and because they had a high status before, they could not get exemptions. Even letters had been unreachable for many years. If the war lasted, he would probably have no chance to see his parents again.
"It's not just this city, not only the people in this city have changed, but the whole world has changed. I won't go to the class meeting today. I have a bad relationship with others, and it's not meaningful to be silly with them." Chen Baowan spoke very directly, just like when she was studying with Lin Yi back then, and never pretended to be pretentious. "I advise you not to go to the class meeting either, first, so as not to anyone target you, and second, I guess Xiao Shufei won't go either. What's her current identity? What's the useful relationship these classmates in the old days can bring her? What's more, she's so smart. The more she thinks about the old love, the less she will appear in front of you. Otherwise, if people think of you, it will bring you disaster."
Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
Xiao Shufei was the "she" that Chen Baowan mentioned at the beginning, and one of the four people he wanted to see the most.
When he was at Qiyun College, he and Xiao Shufei had the most outstanding academic performance and had similar family backgrounds. They were recognized as golden boys and jade girls. They naturally fell in love with each other. Although they had not yet reached the point of discussing marriage, if there were no changes, they would probably have to decide their family and make a lifelong decision.
But now it is different. Xiao Shufei's surname is Xiao, and Emperor Wu of Liang is her father's brother. Her father is not only a prince, but also a marshal of the world's military and horses. Her status is no different from that of a princess.
And he is the descendant of the criminal, no wonder Chen Baowan speaks directly, and his status is too far from Xiao Shufei.
"Anyway, I'm idle, so go and have a look."
Lin Yi certainly understood that she had good intentions, but she still shook her head and did not hide it. "What's more, my father used to say to me that there is still hope for heaven and disgrace himself. If he even abandoned himself, it would be like a pile of mud and could not be supported on the wall."
Chen Baowan was not angry, but laughed.
Lin Yi is indeed the same as before, stubborn, confident and optimistic, and to her, Lin Yi is very sincere and real, not as false as the so-called young talents she has seen.
"Then you are the ones, I'm really coming back to see you anyway." She sorted out her hair that drifted to her forehead in the morning breeze. "I have arranged a lot of preparations at home, and I will leave Jiankang in the afternoon."
“Where to go after leaving?”
"Maybe go to Sizhou, or Shangyong County, but it's not necessarily true now." Chen Baowan looked at Lin Yi, "Anyway, the better the north you go."
Lin Yi pondered for a moment and said, "There is another thing I want to ask you for help."
Chen Baowan was very casual, "What's the matter?"
"I want to go to the Qiyun Academy library to take a look. There are many ancient books about Linghuang there, which may be of some use, but many books from previous dynasties were classified as banned books, and some banned books collected from various places are said to be placed in the library. In my capacity as a person, they are not allowed to be checked." Lin Yi was also very casual, unlike a person who asked for help, because he knew that Chen Baowan also regarded him as a real friend, and would definitely help if he could do it.
Chen Baowan agreed immediately, "It's simple, just go directly tomorrow. I will arrange someone to wait for you, or go after the classmate meeting today."
Lin Yi said: "Then I will go after the classmate meeting today."
"Yes." Chen Baowan raised his eyebrows slightly, "But I remind you that in three days, you should not forget to report to the South Heaven Academy. But don't forget the time when you read books and read them like before."
"You were not the same at that time." Lin Yi laughed.
He and Chen Baowan were both famous book lovers at Qiyun Academy back then. Originally, he had no friendship with Chen Baowan, and Chen Baowan was not hypocritical. He had to talk about people and things that he couldn't stand, which was easy to show people's face. Therefore, among the classmates of the same period, Chen Baowan had a good reputation and was difficult to get close to dating. But once, the two were in the same book pavilion to read the classics, and they all forgot the time and stayed together for two days and nights. When other classmates came to find that so long had passed, and the two met because of this.
Later, the two of them became friends with each other.
"The dynasty has changed, the world has changed, but fortunately you have not changed yet." Chen Baowan also laughed. She slowly turned around and said softly, "Take care."
"The further north, although the speed of spiritual energy disappearing will be slower, the closer it will be, the more dangerous it will be. You have to be careful." Lin Yi knew that she was leaving, and he didn't know what to say, but he just felt that it would be even more difficult to see Chen Baowan again after this separation.
"Miss, what's so special about him? It's worth asking for a letter of advice and a yellow pill for him?" When Chen Baowan returned to the carriage, a middle-aged female coachman was already waiting for her. The female coachman looked at the dilapidated courtyard with confusion, "And his identity is special, and it may cause trouble."
"Special?" Chen Baowan entered the carriage and sat down. When the curtain fell, a fleeting sadness appeared on her face. "It can be said that he had not lacked what the famous children of the classmates had lacked at that time, and he suffered such huge setbacks and changes. Over the years, he did not need my yellow bud pill to condense into yellow buds. Do you think he was very special?"
The middle-aged female coachman was stunned.
She didn't say anything else, but just sighed quietly as the carriage started walking, and said in her heart, "What a pity."
