In contrast, there are many exquisite houses outside the city wall, tall and gorgeous, as if the nobles live outside the city, Zhuge Liang asked puzzledly: "Xiangju, why is this place so special?" ”

"These houses should be where the army of Heras is stationed." Xiangju explained.

Wang Baoyu and Zhuge Liang were even more surprised, they looked at each other, and Zhuge Liang asked again: "Why didn't the army enter the city?"

"Although the city of Fanyin is dilapidated, it is one of the holy cities, and it should not be moved. To hide from the Prime Minister, Heras was stationed here just to prevent the Vedic attack. Xiangju explained.

Zhuge Liang and Wang Baoyu suddenly understood that Heras was unwilling to defend the city and fight, and had to choose an open place to face off, because there was no city to defend.

"An army of 80,000 is just to defend a broken city, is there anything to say about this city?" Wang Baoyu felt incredible, and in a trance he felt like he was being led by Xiangju, and coming here was also one of his purposes.

Xiangju pondered for a long time, and in the face of Wang Baoyu's sharp eyes, he didn't dare to hide it and said: "According to legend, there is a supreme Buddha's blood relic left here, if you get this thing, you can gather all the believers, and the number will be amazing, and it will directly threaten Guishan." ”

No wonder! Such a rare thing, of course, is better than a treasure of time, and whoever has the blood relics can become the supreme spiritual leader.

When it comes to blood relics, Wang Baoyu can't help but think of another thing, his future wife Qian Meifeng, who was once injured and became a vegetative person, and the long-term treatment was ineffective, and it was only after taking a blood relic that she was cured, and therefore had an ageless appearance.

Hehe, what a coincidence, thinking of this, Wang Baoyu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, alternating generations, and the situation is changing, but relics have always been unattainable treasures, not to mention blood relics.

So, could this blood relic be the one Qian Meifeng took? Wang Baoyu was so excited that he finally found something close to the future, forgot his dissatisfaction with Xiangju, and hurriedly asked, "How many blood relics does the Buddha have?" ”

"This, I don't know, there may be a lot of them, but the one left here should be the purest and the greatest Buddha-nature. If there is no great fate, you can't see each other. "Xiangju said.

"So where is this blood relic, and does anyone know any clues?" Wang Baoyu hurriedly inquired again.

"Nobody knows." Xiangju shook his head helplessly, it should be like this, the people looking for blood relics should have searched all over this place.

Since Heras refused to enter the city, Zhuge Liang did not want to violate the local customs, so he ordered the army to stay outside the city. Xiangju said that there were no soldiers and horses in the city, and Zhuge Liang and Wang Baoyu only took a line of entourage and slowly entered Fanyin City from the city gate.

Fanyin City looks smaller than the Yi Tomb where Wang Baoyu is located, there are only a few thousand local residents in the city, and most of the people you meet on the road are wearing monk robes and have a deferential attitude, as for whether they are real monks, it is worth studying.

According to Xiangju, the inhabitants of the city of Fanyin rarely worked and lived on the offerings of foreign worshippers, and although Heras surrounded the city outside, he allowed the worshippers to enter the city without even asking.

There are also bazaars on the streets of Fanyin City, and although there are not many people, the things on display are very precious, such as the golden Buddha statue, and the lavish and heavy worship utensils, which are dazzling. And there are countless exquisite jade carvings and porcelain, which are very symbolic of the mainland, so it seems that many merchants in the Han Dynasty have secretly visited these places.

There was no market for gold coins in the city, and if you wanted to get these things, you had to exchange them for grain, and according to Wang Baoyu's inference, when the merchants came here, they exchanged these things for gold coins, and then took the gold coins with them.

Of course, these actions of the merchant must have been carried out very secretly, and the long journey paid a huge price, and the hard-earned gold coins were re-smelted before they could be used, otherwise a person like Wang Baoyu should not have seen a single such gold coin in the mainland.

There are also several pagodas in the city, all of which are in disrepair and look extremely dilapidated, and one of them has also been tilted strictly, I really don't know how long it will last. And these believers turn a blind eye to this, perhaps in their eyes, a bowl of food is more important than faith.

In the middle of the city, there is also a crumbling royal palace, which has many towering trees, adding to the tranquility. According to Xiangju, this is the palace of the King of Pure Rice where the Buddha lived, and it was here that the Buddha read books that were only available in the upper class such as the Upanishads, and gave birth to the idea of practicing liberation and saving sentient beings.

Wang Baoyu was afraid of being smashed, so in the end, he and Zhuge Liang exchanged food for a place to rest and rest.

After Zhuge Liang sat down, he immediately said to Xiangju: "Xiangju, can you take someone around to investigate, can there be a Han monk, a nun and a horse to come here?" ”

After speaking, Zhuge Liang added with a stern expression: "You can only know about this matter, and you are not allowed to talk about it to others." ”

Xiangju was slightly stunned, knowing that the two characters mentioned by Zhuge Liang must be extraordinary, but he didn't ask too much, and went out as soon as he agreed.

"Wait a minute, by the way, you can find out if there is another Yue man riding an elephant and more than two meters tall has come here. By the way, you don't have to leak this to others. Wang Baoyu said again.

Who is this person? Xiangju was confused, both of them were mysterious, could it be that the Han army had already arranged for someone to come in, with doubts, Xiangju nodded and agreed, and immediately set out to handle the matter.

In such a small city, it is not difficult to inquire about something, not to mention that the characteristics of these three people are quite remarkable. About two hours later, Xiangju came back and reported: "Prime Minister, King Hanxing, has heard the whereabouts of the three people. ”

"Hurry up!" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but light up.

"According to the natives of the city, a few months ago, a monk and a Nehan man dressed as a monk came here, but they have already left." Xiangju said.

Zhuge Liang suddenly showed a look of disappointment, looking for a woman for thousands of miles, but it was still a step too late. Wang Baoyu asked: "There are many monks and nuns in the world, you can tell me about their characteristics in detail." ”

"The monk is more than half a hundred years old, and the law is majestic; Xiao Ni is twenty-eight years old, with excellent appearance, riding a horse, and guarding them is a man who rides an elephant, quite a general. The three of them first entered the city to worship, then went out of the city to worship the Sanssouci tree, and then headed southeast. Xiangju told the truth.

Hey, Zhuge Liang sighed heavily, convinced that it was the daughter he was looking for. Wang Baoyu was a little surprised, Hongpang was actually with Pujing and Guoguo, needless to say, it must have been arranged by Pujing in advance, since he had Hongpang's protection, this made him feel a lot more at ease.

"Have you ever found out where they have gone?" Passing by, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but ask anxiously.
