Those who knelt down were dressed in monk attire and kowtowed to Shan Fei with great respect. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Shan Fei was a little reluctant in his heart, secretly thinking that Sun Zhong somehow sent himself here, causing this misunderstanding, but he didn't know how to explain it.

However, seeing that those people did not have the slightest hostility, Shan Fei could only wait for these people to raise their heads, and then made a gesture and said, "You wait until you get up first." ”

Those people didn't understand Solo Fei's words, but they understood Solo Fei's gestures, and slowly stood up and gathered around Solo Fei, still full of respect.

The first time Solo Fei encountered this situation, I secretly thought that I am not a god after all, and I can't give you any benefits, how to solve this misunderstanding?

After staring at everyone for a long time, Shan Fei finally said: "I passed by here unintentionally, not an immortal of your faith...... I have other things to do, so don't leave it at that. ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't want to entangle with these people anymore, so he turned around and walked in the direction of the outside of the temple. Others are on the top of the mountain, and there seems to be a small village at the foot of the mountain.

If his guess is correct, this place is really within the scope of the Kushan Empire, there should be many merchants in charge of the business and trade operations between China and the West, and it is inevitable that there will be people who can speak the Chinese dialect, and he wants to inquire a little before making a decision.

Seeing this, those people actually gathered around again, and they didn't seem to dare to pull Shan Fei, but just kowtowed again.

Shan Fei saw that these people were very respectful to him, and this kind of action really meant to be retained. He couldn't bear to lie to them, but he couldn't walk away at such a time.

After a while, those people saw that Shan Fei no longer wanted to leave, they all showed joy, and one monk had dark skin, his hands and feet were like dry wood, like the host of everyone, and he made a gesture to Shan Fei to invite inward.

Seeing the host's extremely pleading and eager look, Shan Fei finally walked towards the main hall of the temple.

The architectural style here is very different from that of the Central Plains temple, but there are also statues of gods in the temple. Shan Fei was not very familiar with foreign gods and ghosts, and he didn't look at the statue after entering the main hall, but the monks immediately knelt down in front of the statue as soon as they entered the main hall, and let out cheers.

Shan Fei couldn't help but look in the direction of everyone's bowing, his heart beat violently, and he almost jumped.

The idol turned out to be a woman. The woman is very much like ......

His fingers trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but touch the goddess spirit talisman in his arms, but he didn't take it out. He didn't have to take out the goddess talisman, and he knew that the statue of the god enshrined in the temple was the same as the woman on his goddess talisman.

The same beauty, the same loneliness......

Nine Heavens Xuannu?

The temple here is actually enshrined in the statue of the Nine Heavens Xuannu?

Shan Fei's heart trembled, he only thought that Sun Zhong had made a mistake in the place of landing, but the moment he saw the statue of the Nine Heavens Xuan Goddess, he realized that things were not as simple as he imagined.

staring blankly at the lonely Nine Heavens Xuannu between her eyebrows, she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart. Seeing that the monk finally got up, Shan Fei flashed in front of the host and asked, "Which is this idol?" ”

The host looked at Shan Fei blankly, not understanding what Shan Fei was asking.

Shan Fei secretly thought that he was a little confused, knowing that they didn't understand what he was saying and still asked, so he couldn't help but ask blindly. took out the spirit talisman of the goddess from her bosom, and shook it at the host, naturally with the intention of asking the truth about why the Nine Heavens Xuannu was worshiped by such a person.

The presiding officer's eyes lit up when he saw the rune, and he couldn't help kneeling down again, and all the monks knelt down again, and there was another burst of cheers.

Shan Fei could only sigh, secretly thinking that the god these people worshipped was actually the Nine Heavens Xuannu, seeing that he was holding the spirit talisman of the Nine Heavens Xuannu, maybe he thought he was the messenger of the Nine Heavens Xuannu?

He's not a messenger, he's half a descendant?

The more you are in a confused environment, the more you can keep your mind calm. He knew that no matter how much he asked now, it would be half the effort, so he simply stayed to find out.

When the presiding officer saw that he had no intention of leaving, he was overjoyed, and offered food respectfully at noon. Shan Fei saw that the food was messy like mud, which was a bit characteristic of Indian food. He saw the respect of these people, and secretly thought that no matter how unpalatable this thing was, he would have to follow the local customs, but fortunately, although the food was dry and hard to swallow, there was no curry, otherwise it could be said that the originator of dark cuisine appeared.

After the food was eaten at noon, there was nothing to serve at night.

Solo Fei knew that the current Kushan Empire was an open country, whether it was India, the Great Qin Empire, or even Greek culture, and the style of these monks should be the characteristic of inheriting Indian Buddhism and not eating for lunch.

He walked around the temple slightly, and found no anomalies other than the statue of the goddess Xuan. The monks were extremely respectful to him, and although they were afraid that he would leave, they did not restrict his movement, and when they saw him turn around, they showed a look of joy again.

As a result, Shan Fei couldn't bear to leave quietly.

For three days, the host seemed to be afraid that Solo Fei would disappear and seemed to be afraid that he would be lonely, so he stayed by Solo Fly's side every day, but the two of them have been talking like chickens and ducks, and they don't know what each other knows. On the fourth day, a monk ran in from outside the temple and said a few words to the host, who nodded, respectfully went to Shan Fei's body, bowed three times, and made a gesture to invite outside.

Is this because I eat too much, and you want to drive me away?

Shan Fei felt strange in his heart, and walked out of the temple following the gesture of the host, and saw that the monks were carrying a simple package, which looked like they were going to travel far away.

The host respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Shan Fei, and Shan Fei was slightly happy when he saw this, he knew that these people were probably going to a place, and it was very likely that it was related to him, so that he could solve his mystery.

When I got down the mountain, there was a small village at the foot of the mountain. When the people saw the monks coming down, they all knelt on both sides of the road and waited until the monks had passed by.

Only then did Shan Fei know that the status of these monks here was by no means low, and he wanted to ask a common person to ask, but he couldn't find anyone who understood him from beginning to end, so he had to give up.

After everyone descended the mountain, they marched in the southwest direction, and those monks did not seem to have any martial arts, but they should belong to the ascetic and the like, and their steps were really brisk. When it was time to rest, all the monks meditated silently, and only one or two people went to the nearby field to dig some wild vegetables to satisfy their stomachs.

After walking for five or six days, Shan Fei frowned secretly, and said in his heart, where are we going? Could it be that Ban Chao didn't complete the feat of visiting the Great Qin Empire to be realized by me?

The crowd in front of them gradually thickened, and on this day everyone arrived in front of an earthen city, and the pedestrians inside and outside the city were like a stream, and when they saw these monks coming, they all pointed and pointed, and their expressions were respectful.

When the monks entered the city, they stopped at a simple and quiet inn, and did not seem to have any intention of going any further.

Shan Fei was secretly strange, but there was a market before he arrived at the inn, and there were all kinds of people in it, which could be said to be both Eurasian and diverse. He didn't give up the idea of asking the truth, and gestured to the host. These days, the host has seen that Solo Fei is extremely kind, everything goes according to their wishes, and he has a better impression of Solo Fei, but he does not leave Solo Fei as before, and only makes a gesture to turn around as soon as possible.

Shan Fei sighed and walked quickly to the market, and saw that the goods in the market were dazzling, which could be said to be extremely rich.

Guishan was originally a descendant of the Yue clan in the Western Regions. At that time, the Yue clan was forced by the Xiongnu to move west to Central Asia, and there were still five great princes and tribes, called the Marquis of Wuxi. Later, the Kushan tribe, one of the five marquis, annexed the remaining four tribes and formally established the empire.

The Central Plains still refers to this empire as the Yue clan in the history books, but the Kushan is now spanning Central Asia and South Asia, and the scale is really extraordinary, and it is respected as the Kushan Empire by the surrounding small countries.

Kushan is located at the intersection of the poison (India), the Great Qin (Rome), the Han Dynasty, and the rest of the countries, and commerce and trade have been extremely developed.

When he saw the silk of the Central Plains, the poisonous spices and gems, the luminous walls of Egypt, and the amber corals of Daqin, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart - now that the Central Plains is in chaos, Guishan is a rare place in the world......

As he was sighing, he heard a person beside him say in a hoarse voice: "Holy monk, this is the best balm for the Sabbath Kingdom, do you need it?" ”

Flying Shan was stunned, turned his head to look, and saw a Central Asian who looked like an old fritter pick up a small box on the stall near him and showed him a somewhat flattering smile.

Seeing that the man was looking directly at him, Shan Fei was puzzled, stretched out his finger and pointed to the tip of his nose and said, "Are you talking to me?" ”

The old fritter nodded again and again, "I'm talking to the holy monk below." What he said was quite standard Central Plains discourse.

Solo Fei was somewhat surprised, and hurriedly said: "This is the Guishan Country?" Although he had a guess, he finally met a person who could speak the original dialect after holding it for a long time, how could he miss it?

The old fritter showed a puzzled look, but he still said: "What the holy monk said is right, this is indeed the Guishan Country, and this city is called Lucheng." Not far to the southwest, it is Peshawar, the capital of the Kushan Kingdom. ”

Shan Fei's heart moved slightly, secretly thinking that Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty had been to Peshawar, calling Peshawar the land of abundance with lush flowers and fruits. Peshawar is the city of flowers in Sanskrit, and as the name suggests, it should be an extremely beautiful place. As soon as I thought of this, I longed for solo flight.

"Is the holy monk going to Peshawar?" The old fritter said politely.

Shan Fei listened to this person take a bite of a holy monk, frowned and said, "Do you think I look like a monk?" ”

The old fritter was slightly stunned, and said strangely: "The holy monk and the holy monk of Tongxuan Temple in Mingguang Mountain are together, and they are naturally also holy monks." Those holy monks never associate with outsiders. ”

Shan Fei asked, "The holy monk of the Tongxuan Temple in Mingguang Mountain?" They are ...... in Kushan"

The old fritter is not an idiot, listening to Shan Fei's question, he understood that this kid might be with those monks by chance, and still said politely: "The lord of Guishan has always regarded the holy monks of the Xuanmiao Temple as a monk who protects the country, and since this is the case, their status is naturally high." ”

He knew the strangeness of those monks, and when he saw that Shan Fei entered the city with those monks, he deliberately stammered. Seeing that Shan Fei frowned and was silent, the old fritter smiled and said: "If the holy monk likes it, he will take this balm, and he will only make offerings below, and he will never ask for money." ”

He didn't know that Shan Fei had no intention of standing in front of the incense, he just thought that this holy monk had moved his mortal heart. Although he didn't know the identity of Solo Fei, he was sure that he would not mistake the nobility of this person, so he had to form a "good fate".

I didn't want to have the fragrance of flowers on the side, so a slender jade hand reached out and took away the best balm in the hands of the old fritters. A voice like a silver bell rang in Shan Fei's ears, "This balm...... I want it. ”
