Chapter 382: Journey to Zhongzhou Visit Jinshan
Xixuanzhou, in Kyushu, the spiritual power can definitely rank among the top three, so the strength of the monks here is also among the top three in Zhongzhou, and there is only one sect in Xixuanzhou from top to bottom, that is-Xixuan Temple.
can be named after the temple, and the monks inside are naturally mainly monks, but the monks of this Xixuan Temple are not necessarily all monks who are empty.
In the secular world, Yi Chengzhi's Buddhist precepts are first of all to abstain from the four sins of alcohol, sex, wealth, and anger.
Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, color is a steel knife that scrapes bones, wealth is a tiger down the mountain, and qi is the root and seedling of trouble.
However, not all the monks in this Xixuan Temple are monks who are empty of the four majors, and if that were the case, the inheritance of Xixuan Temple would have been broken long ago.
Therefore, almost eighty percent of the people in Xixuan Prefecture believe in Buddhism, and those two percent do not believe in foreign monks, and Xixuan Temple still has many resources that the outside world does not have.
However, among the monks of Xixuan Temple, there are nine out of nine who cultivate their minds, do not cultivate themselves, believe in Buddhism and worship Buddha, but they are not ordained.
Therefore, this Xixuan Temple is divided into the outer door and the inner door, the outer door monks can be said to be the lay disciples of the Xixuan Temple, they can marry wives and have children, big fish and big meat, but the inner disciples need to abide by the precepts, practice meditation and chant Buddha.
Xixuanzhou is like a Buddhist country, the highest is the presiding Buddha master of Xixuanshu, below is the head and elders of each courtyard, and then there are the other courtyards at a level, these annexes are like the government to manage the monks and mortals of the entire Xixuanzhou.
The strength of Xixuan Temple is not the strongest in Zhongzhou, but no one is willing to go to war with Xixuan Temple, because in Xixuan Temple, under the order of the Buddha, no matter the inner and outer doors of Xixuan Temple, monks and mortals will be soldiers.
In short, Xixuan Temple is a place of unity and a place of madness.
The moment Yi Cheng stepped on Xixuan Temple, he felt the unique atmosphere here.
The bells are ringing, the scriptures are fluttering, and there is a faint smell of incense in the air.
"Welcome seniors to Xixuanzhou, my name is Nan Hao, I am very familiar with Jinshan City, I don't know what the seniors came to Xixuanzhou, what can I help?" Yi Cheng had just come out of the teleportation array when he heard a clear voice speaking to him.
Yi Cheng looked up and saw that he was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, his cultivation was good, and he was already in the early stage of foundation building.
Although it was the first time to come to Xixuanzhou, Yi Cheng was no longer a rookie in cultivating the truth, naturally it was the intention of the little monk Zhilu Dao, which was nothing more than to lead the way for himself in exchange for some spirit stones.
For Yi Cheng, this is exactly what he can't ask for, he is not familiar with life here, and having a guide can indeed save a lot of time.
"What can you help me, how many spirit stones should I give you?" Yi Cheng looked at the little monk's eyes and the clarity didn't look like he had another purpose, so he asked.
"I am familiar with many places in this Jinshan City, I can be a guide for my predecessors, and the things in those shops are good, that shop is a black shop, I also know the way, so as not to be fooled by my predecessors, and at the same time, my predecessors should be the first time to come to Jinshan City, I can inform my seniors of all the precautions here, only ten spirit stones a day!" Nan Hao hesitated for a moment and quoted the price of ten spirit stones per day.
"Okay, deal, at this time, one hundred spirit stones is your fee for ten days!" Yi Cheng threw out a medium-grade spirit stone without hesitation.
"Ahh Nan Hao seemed to be a little surprised that Yi Cheng was so refreshing, and gave him ten days' wages without a counteroffer.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Yi Cheng asked.
"Senior, why don't you bargain, those seniors used to bargain when they saw me young!" Nan Hao is a child in the end, and he doesn't have any scheming.
"Hehe, what price do others usually want?" Yi Chenghuan asked this child with interest.
"Some people ask for ten, some people ask for fifteen, and some people ask for twenty! But at a young age like me, sometimes six or seven spirit stones are dry! Nan Hao said truthfully, and looked at Yi Cheng after speaking, as if he was a little worried that Yi Cheng would take back the spirit stone.
"Are you doing worse than others?" Yi Cheng then asked.
"No, no, no, although I'm young, but I know the way where they know it, my grandfather has taught me these since I was a child, my grandfather has been doing it for two hundred years, and he is the best guide in Jinshan City, and I have been doing it for three or four years!" Nan Hao hurriedly defended, for fear that Yi Cheng would not want him.
"Then let's go, if you do a good job, I'll add spirit stones to you!" Yi Cheng smiled and walked forward.
"Xie Lu Xie senior, I will definitely satisfy you!" When Nan Hao heard this, he hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way.
As Nan Hao said, he was extremely familiar with Jinshan City, and led Yi Cheng to walk one-tenth of the place in Jinshan City in one day.
The only thing that made Yi Cheng feel helpless was that monks were forbidden to fly in all the cities of Western Xuanzhou, although there was no forbidden air formation, but no monk dared to violate it, even if it was the Yuan Infant Period.
Because all the cities in Xixuan Prefecture have the annex of Xixuan Temple, they manage the order of the city like the city lord's mansion, and the presiding monks of this annex are all monks in the late Yuan Infant period, and there are also precept monks composed of monks from the inner courtyard to enforce the law in the city, and those monks who violate the rules have been killed by the precept monks.
If you want to speed up your trip, you can only choose to take an expensive animal car.
The beast carts in Jinshan City are all horse-drawn carriages of second-order demon beasts, it is said that this dragon horse contains dragon blood, but it is thin to the extreme, and adult dragon horses are only second-order demon beasts, and dragon horses are docile and easy to raise, and their speed and endurance are also stronger than those of the same level demon beasts, so they have also become the best choice for beast cars.
However, renting a beast cart drawn by two dragons would cost a hundred spirit stones a day, which made Yi Cheng quite emotional, the salary of this monk in the foundation building period was not as good as a demon beast.
Looking at the beast cars speeding by on the spacious road, Yi Cheng couldn't help but sigh that this Xixuan Temple has a way to make money.
Those monks who dare to fly in the city are not resentful at all, destroying other people's financial routes, it is strange if they don't kill you, it seems that this monk is also greedy for money.
What puzzled Nan Hao was that the senior who hired him had been wandering around Jinshan City for three consecutive days, just looking around, occasionally going to some shops, but he rarely bought anything, he was only very interested in the architecture and Buddha statues of Jinshan City, and collected a lot of jade slips in this regard.
However, Nan Hao doesn't care about this, he doesn't make less money with a piece of his spirit stone, and Yi Cheng occasionally points out his cultivation, so that Nan Hao is like an initiation, and now even if he doesn't give him a spirit stone, he is willing to be a guide for Yi Cheng.
Although his grandfather has been a guide for two hundred years, it is only enough for them to cultivate by themselves, and there are spirit stones to ask for guidance, so Nan Hao's cultivation is only guided by his grandfather in the later stage of foundation building, and now Yi Chengken is guiding Nan Hao's cultivation, which naturally makes him overjoyed.
On the fourth day, Nan Hao waited for Yi Cheng outside the door early in the morning.
"Senior, where are we going today? Or visiting Jinshan City? "Nan Hao now thinks that Yi Cheng is the kind of monk who came to see the cultural scenery of Western Xuanzhou, and it took them three days to ride the beast cart before they turned to Jinshan City.
"I'm not going today, didn't you say that the Buddha drunk Jinshan in Jinshan City is very famous, let's try it today!" Yi Cheng said with a smile.
"Good senior, I'll take you to Jincui Pavilion, where the Buddha is drunk and Jinshan is the most authentic!" Nan Hao hurriedly replied.
"Okay, let's go, listen to your words, this Buddha is drunk on Jinshan, you have drunk a lot!" Yi Cheng asked with interest.
The so-called Buddha drunk Jinshan is a kind of famous wine in Jinshan City, it is rumored that there is a Buddha who passed by Jinshan City, attracted by this fine wine, but because of the precepts can not be drunk, so the jade wine is fragrant for thousands of miles, and the Buddha is drunk with thousands of years of Zen language, and then drifts away.
As a result, this Buddha drunken gold mountain has since spread throughout Xixuanzhou and has become one of the most famous wines.
