Chapter 4 Thousands of Miles of Travel Can't Escape
It is difficult for every family to recite the scriptures, and it is difficult for every household to sing songs. www.biquge.info In less than half a year, he had to perform the family's crown ceremony, and after the crown, he had to travel 20,000 miles, which is a routine for each generation.
That's right, it's a journey of 20,000 miles! And also set a good route, every time you go to a destination, you have to go to a specific place to sign in, you can't be lazy.
His father Li Yu has two titles, one is the king of Hengnan Li who covers the sky with one hand, and the other is the head of the Li family who is rich in the world. There is a thousand-year-old tradition in the Li family, and if the clansmen want to have the right to inherit as the head of the family, they must travel 20,000 miles at the time of the crown.
Regarding this journey that is destined to endure hardships for 20,000 miles, Li Yu actually said: "Only you have the opportunity to temper yourself, and others can't ask for it when they kneel." Traveling around the continent, experiencing some hardships, you will have an enterprising understanding, when I traveled alone for two years, through the ice field above the northern wilderness, all the way through the pass. If you are strong-willed, you can go. β
Li Xiaoyang was very puzzled, do you think I am you, your cultivation is so strong, it is not easy to defeat those demon generals, and I am a person who has no cultivation!
He doesn't know anything about martial arts, even if he has read hundreds of martial arts cheats in the Guanxin Tower, he has made no progress, in fact, he is indeed lazy, fishing for a day, drying nets for six days, but whenever his father asks him to practice, he is perfunctory, meditating and pretending, and when he causes trouble, he uses his mother as a shield and tries all kinds of things.
Pampering does make people lazy, and he has also become sluggish in his previous life, but he is not as unlearned and unruly as other rich children. He spent almost all of his playtime on the physical study of his past and present lives, and found that the physical system of this world was basically the same as that of his previous life, but with a little more thing, that is, the spiritual power, aura, and true yuan that cultivators said.
He roughly understood that there was a transformational relationship between the three.
True Yuan flows in the body, is the initial form of power, can be transformed into a specific form of spiritual power, such as more than ten years ago the white-clothed Xuanyuan Yu Wan Qian Sword hundreds of sword qi is the spiritual power gathered, and the aura is ubiquitous, mixed in the air, soil, sea water, cultivators can feel the aura of heaven and earth, turn it into their own use, into the true element, so the aura is the source of power.
But no one knows what the source of aura is, and there is no explanation for this in the books, so he assumes that aura was formed by a long chemical reaction when this world was born, similar to oxides and the like, which means that there is an element in this world that is not on the earth, and he temporarily calls that element spirit, which is a bit awkward. And he guessed that after the spiritual power dissipated, the aura would be formed, and the three would be transformed into each other in a cycle.
It's a pity that he really doesn't have the talent for cultivation, similar to the domineering peerless magic skills "Burning the Sky Decision", "Tiangang Sword Record", "Taiyin True Scripture", ...... He tried all kinds of cultivation methods, but he couldn't sense the aura of the fart, so he decisively abandoned martial arts and decided to arm himself with knowledge.
Fortunately, the knowledge of chemistry and physics in his previous life was still passable, otherwise he would be useless. At the age of five, he succeeded in making a variety of gunpowder from oil separation and chemical compounds, and then made a pistol. Don't look at the modern pistol is just an assembly of several parts, in this technologically backward world, many resources have not been exploited, and it takes him a lot of time to make this palm-sized thing. His studio is very large, it took dozens of manpower and hundreds of tons of marble to build, and he pays great attention to details, ensuring the ventilation and drying of the studio, the forging of steel, and the cutting of wood, all of which he hires the best craftsmen in Nanheng to help.
And his father couldn't understand what he was doing at all, and often scolded: "What a loser, it's not good to practice martial arts, it's not good to study academically, what are you doing all this?" Playthings are demoralized! β
Of course, there are countless modern technologies, and he only knows a little about the skin, but even if it is the skin, it is already shocking in this world. But there is no intention of publishing these developments, at least not yet.
He was preparing to develop electrical equipment, and he didn't know how many years it would take to design and meditate, but now his entire plan was disrupted by this trip to the crown, and his scientific research dreams would be wasted. But fortunately, many self-defense weapons were invented in advance, otherwise it would be a problem whether he would even be able to come back alive.
Thinking about it, I still feel worried that my good future will be ruined by this travel, no, I have to find a way.
He got up and returned to his messy bedroom, the room was very decorated with very few things, and it could be seen that the only precious thing was a screen of a hundred birds and a phoenix, a few cases of white marble, a wood-grained stone inkstone, and a rich red mattress that was enough to sleep three people. There were a lot of papers on the ground, and it was because of these papers that he recorded his important design plans that he didn't allow the servants to enter the room, or his mother couldn't stand it, so she helped him clean up the things he didn't use, and he had to watch out for the paper with things written on it, and he would be scolded if he lost one.
"Xiaoyang, I'll bring your favorite lychee." said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and his mother pushed open the door and held a large plate of fresh fruits, especially lychees, which are tropical fruits.
"Mother! How many times have you said that you have to knock on the door first. Xiao Yang hurriedly put away the world map in his hand, just now he had delineated an escape route, and he had already planned a rough plan.
There is a big mansion in the Ilo Empire, which he exchanged for a famous sword tortoise a few years ago, and by the way, he sold a favor, and he didn't think it would really come in handy, and then he would hide there for a few months, and the trip should be canceled.
Ruxi widened Danfeng's eyes, as if she had found something, and asked softly, "What are you hiding?" β
"No, mother, you've been a little more beautiful lately, you're really young!" Although it sounds very sycophant, it is true that his mother is very well maintained, and he is still light, charming, and his muscles are like snow.
"Less poor mouth, take it out!" The mother puffed up her breasts and pretended to be fierce, but every time she didn't take him, he was really messing around.
"Mother, I made a special trip to ask a friend to bring me pearl powder to help you take care of your skin."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, I heard that it was made of extra-white pearls obtained from the southern coast, and then it was screened layer by layerγγγγγγ "Bragging about the skin is his stunt, and fooling his mother is even better.
Sure enough, a few words can deceive his mother and forget what he hid.
When it comes to monasticism, there are generally two kinds, one is the Taoist Taoist immortality, and the other is the Buddhist destiny. The Northern Demon Sect is a lot more mixed, and it is difficult to classify.
There are many cheats of the Taoist sect, those Jiuyang Divine Skills, Six Yin True Scriptures, Burning Heaven Formula, Canglong Fist and so on are actually deduced by the Taoist School. Buddhism, on the other hand, is basically not spread to the outside world, and only people in Buddhism can practice it. However, as for how Li Yu learned Buddhist exercises, that is something that even Li Xiaoyang does not know, and Li Yu does not plan to teach him Buddhism, but asks some prestigious masters to give Li Xiaoyang some advice.
Weiguo is a small country on the mainland, since the destruction of Soochow, a corner of the east coast of the mainland belongs to the territory of Weiguo, has occupied about one-seventh of the mainland, to the south is the wilderness ruled by the southerners, and the civilization is relatively backward. To the west, there are many small puppet states and vassal states, and further west are the Ilo Empire and the Stark Kingdom, and the north of the continent is a frozen area ruled by the demons, with countless demon beasts, which are extremely dangerous. Fortunately, Li Xiaoyang's itinerary did not have to pass through the Northern Wasteland, otherwise he would have broken his arm.
According to the plan, Li Xiaoyang has sent someone to prepare the carriage, and the important things are ready.
In the dead of night, he quietly escaped according to the plan, running all the way, walking by road and water for a month, and finally came to the mansion in the country of Iro, what he saw made him cry and laugh. A guard surnamed Yu of the Li family tied two famous swords around his waist, stood respectfully at the door of the mansion he borrowed, and said, "See Your Highness, your subordinates have come to take care of Your Highness on the order of the general."
Li Xiaoyang scolded in his heart, Li Yu, who suffered a thousand cuts, how much you want me to die!
In desperation, he could only go home, but he still did not give up, and tried to escape again, using a man who was a little similar to himself to dress up as him, turning the tiger away from the mountain, and then disguised as a servant to escape from the waterway, but everywhere seemed to be Li Yu's spy, and he was intercepted by the Yu guards as soon as he got on the boat.
"Xiaoyang, is it really that terrible to travel? It's not a matter of two or three years" Li Yu, who is eight points similar to Li Xiaoyang's appearance, sat on a gold-painted dragon pattern chair made of rosewood, sitting almost taller than Li Xiaoyang, with the momentum of a king who reigns over the world, his facial features seem to be carved out of marble, handsome and incomparable, deep and sharp eyes, unconsciously giving people an invisible sense of oppression.
"Dad, I'm a weak man, and I have no power to tie the chicken, let me travel 20,000 miles, and I didn't die at the hands of thieves halfway, not to mention that I still have a lot of things to do." He is very in awe of this burly and serious father, and he still remembers that he almost didn't get killed when he caused trouble when he was young, but he was so thick-skinned that he couldn't do it, and the tiger father had no dogs, how could he really be afraid of his father.
"No more nonsense! If it were someone else, I would have run out of patience for a long time! β
"Dad, don't be angry, I'll just go." As soon as he heard his father's tone strengthen, he was intimidated. "Then Dad, you have to send more masters to follow me, I'm afraid I'll be fine, they'll all die."
"You think the masters are very idle, right, not a single one! Traveling is to let you experience the hardships of the world and make yourself ......"
Hearing that a guard who protected him was not sent, he was so angry that his face turned blue, and then Li Yu's teachings and admonitions were not listened to.
He had no choice but to ask his mother for help: "Mother, you have to find justice for me!" The mother who had always been the most powerful in the Li family's mansion sat next to Li Yu, and she didn't even say a word to help him, but said: "You travel three times every day, and this trip is also very beneficial to you, seeing the outside world." β
Li Xiaoyang was completely desperate, so he could only cherish the remaining time and do something that he didn't have time to do. For example, go on a tour of the mountains and rivers, hang out with pig and dog friends, and meet the woman.
