"Chapter 46: Sage City!"

Li Yiming took the map in his hand while changing the direction he was running in, and it was not far from walking out of the 100,000 mountains.

"Big brother, I'm looking at this map, we're about to get out of the range of this 100,000 mountains!"

"Hey brother, although I thought I was congenital, I was really sweating profusely when I was in such a hurry, and I was really not as comfortable as a horse to walk!"

"Big brother, how can you say that you are also an innate master, and the monks of the acquired realm like me are really embarrassed! With your Dao heart, when will you be able to break through the martial artist realm? Your Ning'er girl can't wait to get your title on the gold list in the imperial examination!"

Sure enough, as soon as Li Yiming mentioned the three words of Li Peining, it was Zhao Dezhu's weakness, Zhao Dezhu was originally in a tired state, but after hearing Li Peining's three words, his body seemed to be beaten with ox blood, and he raised his arrogant head again, and under the infusion of divine power, he ran faster than Li Yiming!

Li Yiming shook his head helplessly, and also instilled divine power under his feet to speed up!

With the attack of Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu, two hours later, the two finally walked out of the 100,000 mountains.

Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu are like savages, covered with dust and dust, Li Yiming is okay, Zhao Dezhu is wearing white clothes, and now they are black, gray, and the juice of weeds, green, like a dalmatian!

When Zhao Dezhu saw the familiar official road, he shouted: "Lao Tzu Zhao Dezhu has come out!"

Li Yiming looked at Zhao Dezhu with disgust, and said that it was you who entered the mountains to train, and now it is you who are tired when you walk out of the 100,000 mountains, and you are helpless.

"Big brother, pay attention, don't just get out of the mountain, and then recruit robbers or something!"

Zhao Dezhu tore the sleeves of the clothes on his body, revealing his huge biceps muscles, showing off in front of Li Yiming!

"Brother, don't say that the robbers are coming, now there is a second-grade beast, and the master is also confident that he will tear it alive and use its meat as a snack!"

There is little oil and salt in these 100,000 mountains, and there is a shortage of materials, so this "gourmet" Zhao Dezhu has already been hungry, and he was quite satisfied with eating a fat meal of Dapeng meat, but Dapeng meat has a violent spiritual power, so that Zhao Dezhu has not had time to taste the deliciousness of the meat, and his stomach hurts to death!

Now Zhao Dezhu sees the flat official road, of course, the joy is blooming, where there is an official road, there will be a post station, where there is a post station, there will be horses, Zhao Dezhu can go on like this, but there are horses to travel, and horses must be preferred!

Li Yiming took the map and pointed to the direction to the west, Zhao Dezhu headed towards the west of the official road, galloping away, generally speaking, the post stations on the official road will not be far apart, at this time Zhao Dezhu galloped away, it was to find the post station, eat a big meal, take a bath, change into a horse, that is enough to be happy!

After a while, after walking for about half an hour, Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu really saw the post station.

Zhao Dezhu suddenly turned into a familiar image of a local tyrant, "Xiao Er, prepare two best horses for me and prepare the best meal!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Er to react to Li Yiming, and ran to the back of the post station by himself, carrying water, taking a bath, and changing clothes.

When Zhao Dezhu came out after finishing his work, the wine and food also came up.

"Brother, don't wait for me, eat, eat!"

The two brothers rushed for two days, and they were really hungry, and there was nothing to eat at the post station, only sauce beef, and pig's head meat, and then vegetables and steamed buns.

But the two brothers traveled day and night for two days, and now they can eat a mouthful of hot food, and they are very happy!

After the two starving ghosts came back to their souls, Li Yiming asked Xiao Er.

"Little brother, I don't know how far this is from "Sage City"?"

Although Li Yiming has a map in his hand, there is still a gap between the map and the actual distance!

"Yo, this uncle, you are going to "Sage City"! Then you are asking the right person! This Sage City is less than a hundred miles away from here, according to the best horse you want, the horse can travel five hundred miles a day, and it will be almost there in two hours!"

"Thank you for this little brother, I went out with my brother, and I heard that this sage city was named in honor of Sage Kong, so I came here with my brother!"

"This lord, you are here at this time, it is really the right time, once every ten years, the Confucian saint festival should be in these few days, when the time comes, these many young Confucian disciples will gather in the sage city to hold a four-art competition, in order to comfort the Confucian saint, we descendants are continuing his inheritance!"

Zhao Dezhu interjected and asked a very discordant sentence: "What are these four arts? Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling? Brother, I'm good at this, I'll bring you four leaders back when the time comes!"

Li Yiming looked at Zhao Dezhu with a proud face: "Big brother, are you serious?"

"If this is not serious, it will not be fake? Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, what can't I do? You can say it!"

"Please, big brother, the four arts of Confucianism are talking about qin, chess, poetry and painting! What bullshit eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, big brother, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand it in the future, don't talk nonsense, there are no outsiders here, don't be so open-mouthed when you get to the Sage City!"

"Brother, if you don't say it earlier, you will cause me to lose such a big person!"

After Li Yiming's explanation, Zhao Dezhu's face at this time was red to the base of his neck, and he couldn't wait to find the crack in the ground to get in!

The two of them were full of food and drink, Xiao Er pointed out the direction to the two, Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu rode on horses and galloped towards "Sage City"!

As two hours passed, the two saw the gates of the Sage City!

What should be in Li Yiming and the two is a couplet, which is carved on the city wall!

"Lao Tzu is virtuous, and he is only eight buckets. Kong Qiu through the scriptures, learn rich five cars. Confucius: The name of the sage of Confucius.

Li Yiming praised this couplet without hesitation!

"Good! good! good! Big brother, you see, this couplet, with the Taoist Lao Tzu as a foreshadowing, praises the knowledge of the Confucian sage, this "Sage City" The couplet at the gate of the light city is so amazing, I don't know how wonderful the four arts competition will be during the Confucian Sheng's sacrifice!"

"Brother, you don't have to explain to me the couplets and poems of Wen Xuan, and you didn't write it, you wrote it, I can still be proud, I have the capital to tell others that this is a hand-me-down couplet written by my brother, or a work of Narushu or something. ”

What Zhao Dezhu said is true, his attainments in literature are indeed not good, but when he said this, he really brought disaster to himself!

Sure enough, a scathing voice had already reached the ears of Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu!

"Which mountain village man dares to be so arrogant, the hand-me-down couplet, and Narushu's work is so worthless, and you still want to use these two masterpieces as bragging capital, you are so angry!"

Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu were attracted by this duck-like voice.

I saw the appearance of a young man, dressed luxuriously, and holding a fan in his hand in the snowy world, revealing an indescribable temperament, well, a sullen temperament!

Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu looked at this sullen man from the beginning, and found that they really didn't know this person, Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu simply ignored this sullen man, twisted their heads to the side, and continued to talk about them!

Seeing that these two people didn't take him seriously at all, the sullen man said angrily.

"You two juniors who insult Sven, dare to ignore Ben Xiucai! Do you know that in this sage city, Confucian children are the most respected people! Believe it or not, I called the soldiers to defend the city and punish you for the great crime of despising Confucian children!"

This show is in a hurry, he is a Confucian disciple who has won the title of Xiucai, and he is ignored by two little dolls in this sage city, and the fat man is Zhao Dezhu, and he also said wildly that he will take the heirloom couplet and Mingzhou's work as the capital of bragging, which is a big disrespect in the sage city!

Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu don't want to pay attention to this person at all, this person is stubborn and pedantic at first glance, but he is still a showman, Li Yiming doesn't plan to make any noise, he wants to enter the city with Zhao Dezhu in a low-key manner, he is here to compete with the four arts, but he doesn't want to have anything to do with Sour Xiucai!

Li Yiming pulled Zhao Dezhu and hurriedly walked into the city gate, ready to be inspected, pay the entrance fee, and quickly leave this sour Xiucai to avoid noise! Li Yiming was afraid that this sour Xiucai would continue to chatter, Zhao Dezhu's innate cultivation would slap him against the wall!

Seeing that the two of them left in a hurry, wanting to enter the city quickly, and ignoring him at all, he was furious and immediately shouted at the guards guarding the city.

"Come on, these two people despise Confucian disciples, and slander Confucian culture, come quickly, and take down these two vulgar people!"

Li Yiming doesn't want to cause trouble, he wants to enter the city in a low-key manner, but there are always villains who want to harm him!

When the guards guarding the city heard that there were people in this Sage City who dared to despise Confucian disciples and slander Confucian culture, it was a challenge to the majesty and bottom line of Sage City!

When the Tang Dynasty Imperial City did not establish "Chang'an City", "Sage City" was originally the cultural center of Luzhou in the west, and now even if "Chang'an City" establishes the imperial system, it is only power, and political center, cultural center, or "Sage City"!

Therefore, in "Sage City", Confucian culture is the sky, and the Confucian disciples are the earth!

The guards guarding the city immediately gathered dozens of people and surrounded Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu!

The guards stood up and took the knife in his hand and pointed it at Li Yiming and Zhao Dezhu.

"I'm the captain of the gate guards of Sage City, but the two of you despise Confucian disciples? If it's true, not only will I not let you into the city, but I will punish you accordingly!"

Zhao Dezhu replied with a wicked smile: "Who said that we despise Confucian disciples? Who can testify that we have slandered Confucian culture? Who, stand up!"

After speaking, Zhao Dezhu's innate realm breath was fully released, and he also arched his strong biceps!

This is a threat, a naked threat!

Zhao Dezhu's style of doing things is not a tirade with you, don't force it if you can do it!

These guards guarding the city, except for the captain of the guard, who is a monk who has stepped into the acquired cultivation, the remaining twenty or so people are ordinary people, at this time, in front of Zhao Dezhu in the innate realm, one by one, they are overwhelmed by the coercion of Zhao Dezhu's innate cultivation, and they can't breathe!

The captain of the guard was quite sober, and immediately took out a jade talisman from his arms, and immediately crushed it, this is the alarm jade talisman given by the city lord's mansion, when the city guard encounters a powerful monk who is defeated, crush the jade talisman, and the masters in the city lord's mansion will also be notified as soon as possible!

At this time, in the city lord's mansion of "Sage City", the main and deputy city lords are all powerful existences in the Jindan period, and there is also a white-haired old man, and a young man in a four-clawed python robe!

The main and deputy city lords are all Confucianism and Taoism, and when they leave, they are in the same vein, Liu Yanzhen, the main city lord, Gong Yiping, the deputy city lord, and the young man who can wear a four-clawed python robe is the prince of the Tang Imperial City, Li Yi!

And that white-haired old man is none other than Zhou Lao Hanlin!

"Uncle Shi, I really didn't expect that you have lived in seclusion for hundreds of years, and at this time you will go to your nephew to participate in the great sacrifice of Sage Kong, it is really rare, I have reported to the master, but the master said that he has a lot of things to do at the headquarters of the Eastern Shenzhou, and he is not free to go to Sage City, otherwise he will have a few drinks with you!" Liu Yanzhen said!

"Just my junior brother Yan Ziyi?, pull it down, I will say something nice, I really want to go back to Eastern Shenzhou to find him for a drink, I'm afraid that he won't want to see me!"

"How come, the family teacher still misses the master very much, the family teacher often says, if it weren't for the fact that the master was injured by the demon king back then, and Daoji was harassed by the demon qi, I believe that it is very possible to achieve Yasheng now!"

"Let's not talk about the past, what about me, I accepted two apprentices this year, one is born with divine power, and is a good seedling born with the route of refining the body, but the way of the article is bullshit, and the other one, diligent and inquisitive, but shy and too introverted, both of them went out to practice, and I became a loner again, so take advantage of the Confucian Sage Sacrifice to see the four arts competition of young people now, and I can also see how young people are learning and behaving now!"

"Oh, it turns out that the master and uncle have accepted two more apprentices, and the master and nephew have congratulated him first!"

"Then I wonder how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to visit my "Sage City"?"

For the crown prince to suddenly drive to this sage city, the main and deputy city lords are still very strange!

The prince Li Yi said angrily: "Father Li Yuanba is a protégé of Zhou Lao Hanlin, but Zhou Lao has been living in seclusion for a long time, and suddenly showed the token given by his father in Xiangyang City, I received the news and decided to visit Zhou Lao in person, I can be my father's teacher, and I as a junior also want to listen to the teachings of my master! No, I am the prince of a dynasty, and I have been yearning for a long time for learning Confucian articles and Confucianism and Taoism spirit, so after visiting my master in Xiangyang City, I invited my master to this "Sage City" Let's take a look at the great sacrifice of this Confucian saint, and watch the literary brilliance of the young Confucian people now!"

As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, this Li Yi is not a grade higher than the pampered and arrogant second prince Li Hongyuan, whether it is self-cultivation, politeness, and treating people and things!

After hearing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually invited Zhou Lao to participate in the Confucian Sage Festival, he was flattered, because although Zhou Lao's realm was at the peak of Jindan and could not go further, but in terms of qualifications and literature, he had already obtained the title of Hanlin hundreds of years ago, and his cultivation could not be increased, but no one knew what level Zhou Lao had reached!

Just as the City Lord's Mansion was chatting happily and drinking tea, the chief and deputy commander in charge of border defense of the City Lord's Mansion hurriedly broke into this meeting hall!

"Report ...... Big things are not good!"

Liu Yanzhen replied with a displeased face: "Why are you in such a hurry? Don't you see that I am entertaining distinguished guests?

The deputy commander stubbornly said: "Enemy attack! The signal of enemy attack is coming from the city gate!"

"Oh, at this time, it is not the beast tide that is coming, the righteous Confucian Sage Sacrifice, which one dares to come to the Sage City to make trouble?"

"City Lord, we've been drinking tea for so long, otherwise let's go and see who is making trouble?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, your status is noble, if you encounter danger, if you make a mistake, I can't explain it to the Tang Imperial City!"

Suddenly, Li Yi released his cultivation aura and built the pinnacle of the foundation!

Li Yi is only fifteen years old, and he is actually at the peak of foundation building!

Zhou Lao said: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to go and see the excitement, with the old man here, no one can hurt a single hair of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

For Li Yuanba's seven sons, Zhou Lao first met the second prince Li Hongyuan, and then met the crown prince Li Yi, and the second prince gave him the impression that he was arrogant, pampered and arrogant!

And the crown prince Li Yi, with great ambitions, knowledgeable knowledge, and also respects Confucian culture, even won the heart of Zhou Lao, for the future development of an imperial city, Zhou Lao is still very willing to support this apprentice!

The main and deputy city lords had no choice but to invite Zhou Lao and Li Yi to go to the city gate!
