Chapter 102: Wangjing
This is the fairyland on earth.
Unlike the fire poison city, where there is dust floating everywhere, and even the rain is mud spots, the air here is fresh, the sky is clear overhead, and there are flat rivers all around, all of which are fertile, and it is the cold winter season at this time, which seems to be a little sluggish, if it is summer, this city will be surrounded by green vegetation, and it will be full of vitality.
Since the swordsmen of Yunjian Mountain retreated, Princess Jing has never left the carriage again, and has been stuffy in the carriage all the time.
Fang Dang was injured in his ribs, so he was basically healing his injuries along the way, and practicing hard, striving to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.
The distance between Zheng Shouge and the others and Fang Dang was also eliminated not long after, at least on the surface, there was nothing to be seen. Everyone began to call each other brothers and sisters again.
Ding Ku'er, Ding Su'er and Fang Dang thanked them and said goodbye to Fang Dang, they always thought about the weak female snake and scorpion, so they almost kept looking for the female snake and scorpion.
This is called Fang Dang's grandparents and grandmothers are quite sorry, but Fang Dang's grandfather now likes the two daughters more and more.
Filial children are always treated by the elderly.
Fang Dang's grandfather kept telling Fang Dang to find an opportunity to take the two sisters in, and when necessary, he could get some sweat medicine, whenever his grandfather vomited in a bad stomach, Fang Dang had to pluck out his ears.
After Fang Dang's injuries recovered, he began to cultivate, but unfortunately, the strange poison Neidan gurgled endlessly, making Fang Dang unable to concentrate on cultivation.
Fang Dang often looked at the box in Zhang's carriage along the way, which contained the snake gall of the pig-headed python, which was extremely poisonous, at this time, Fang Dang's mouth was full of qi and weak Strange Poison Neidan was always thrown around, constantly hitting Fang Dang's teeth, hoping that Fang Dang could snatch the box back immediately.
Of course, Fang Dang would not do this kind of self-defeating thing, in the end, Fang Dang still found a hibernating poisonous snake in the hollow under a tree, and after eating the snake gall of the poisonous snake, the strange poison Neidan stopped purring and screaming.
Later, Fang Dang caught a few more poisonous insects on the road, and after eating them, the Strange Poison Neidan even began to have spare strength to help Fang Dang quench his blood.
The journey went smoothly, and after a few days, a city lay in front of you.
Wangjing!
Fang Dang and his party had also seen a lot of cities along the way, but they had never entered it, either because they were afraid of delaying time, or they were afraid of extraneous branches, in short, this was the third big city that Fang Dang came to in addition to Fire Poison City and Yi City.
When he arrived here, Han Guang grabbed the horse's head, turned the horse's body, and arched his hand towards Princess Jing's carriage and said, "Han Guang can only send the princess here." After Han Guang finished speaking, he didn't wait for the princess to speak, and immediately turned his horse away, followed by ten flag-carrying knights, and along the way, the colorful flags were displayed, and the dragon flag was mighty, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a black spot.
Han Guang came and went quickly, he didn't say a word along the way, and he was an incomprehensible character.
Father-in-law Zhang stepped down from the carriage at this time and looked at Han Guang who was far away, his eyes full of suspicion.
"The third prince has the ability to make General Han Guang move??" Princess Jing, who had never spoken, finally asked in the carriage, Han Guang's name was known to everyone in the entire Xia Kingdom, and Princess Jing had naturally heard of Han Guang's deeds.
Gonggong Zhang shook his head and said: "Princess, don't you know, this guy Han Guang has a nickname, called Royal Slave, he is the family dog of the current emperor, he only listens to the orders of the current emperor, and the third prince wants to call Han Guang, which is far from qualified." ”
However, Han Guang was able to come, probably because of some favors from the mother of the third prince to Han Guang back then. These things are a long story, but the more you use this thing, the thinner and thinner the three princes are for the princess this time, which shows that the three princes attach great importance to you. ”
"To me, it's the importance of my father!" Princess Jing said with a sneer.
Father-in-law Zhang smiled and said, "Aren't they all the same?"
Princess Jing then stopped talking, and Gonggong Zhang put his hands on the wheel of the carriage with his hands, staring at Han Guang's gradually disappearing figure.
After a long time, Zhang Gonggong got back into the carriage, and then the entire convoy slowly started and headed towards Wangjing, the capital of Xia Guoguo.
For thousands of years, Wangjing has always been the imperial capital.
No matter how the dynasty changes, as long as it is a dynasty that appears in this land, the imperial capital is set in Wangjing, which shows how the feng shui is here.
It is precisely because this city has always been the imperial capital, after thousands of years of ups and downs, war repairs, and non-stop expansion, this city has a deeper and deeper heritage, even if you stand from a distance and watch, you can be oppressed by the heavy history of this city to breathe heavily.
Fang Dang slowly walked towards the ancient capital in the convoy, watching the city get bigger and taller, Fang Dang's breathing began to slowly become heavy.
Because Fang Dang's enemy was in this city, presumably one day in the future in this city, he would be able to meet the man wearing the three-clawed silver dragon robe again.
Fang Dang was originally very eager to see this guy, but now, Fang Dang felt that he had better see him later, because Fang Dang knew very well that his current strength was still too weak to defeat that guy, let alone compete with the strength that guy had.
Fang Dang thought in his heart, his heart suddenly moved, he raised his head violently, and saw an old dragon hovering in the sky above Wangjing, fierce and powerful, a pair of dragon eyes were staring at him, Fang Dang's pupils suddenly contracted into a state of needles, Fang Dang felt that one of his hearts was clenched, and he couldn't get out of the breath.
At this moment, Fang Dang couldn't even move, so that the pigeon walking behind him hit his head on the back, and with the bang, the cage suddenly disappeared without a trace, and it was as usual.
After Fang Dang rubbed his eyes vigorously, he couldn't see it anymore.
At the same time, the old voice sounded in Fang Dang's ears: "The way to observe the sky, the journey to the sky, all the way." Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous. The five thieves are in the heart, and they are carried out in the sky. ”
This voice was quite familiar to Fang Dang, since he got this Strange Poison Inner Pill, this voice had been lingering in Fang Dang's mind, but this voice had not sounded for a long time.
This time, there is another sentence: "The five thieves are in the heart, and they are carried out in the sky." ”
Fang Dang chewed on this sentence repeatedly, but he didn't understand the literal meaning alone, let alone the meaning in the words.
Fang Dang remembered at this time that he still had a group of old ancestors who didn't need to be used in vain, and immediately spoke: "Grandpa, the way to observe the sky, the way to hold the sky, it's all done." Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and those who see them are prosperous. The five thieves are in the heart, and they are carried out in the sky. What does that mean?"
Grandpa Fang Dang seemed to be sleeping, his voice was a little dazed, and he yawned and said, "Is this the text in the Yin Fu Sutra?"
"The voice in the strange poison nedan told me. Fang Dang said.
Grandpa Fang Dang yawned again, but this yawn was halfway through and he paused stiffly, "What?
Fang Dang was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be." Fang Dang had only heard Fang Wenshan's voice once, that is, when the man in the three-clawed silver dragon robe appeared, although Fang Dang heard Fang Wenshan's extremely angry roar, that voice was far from being so old.
When Fang Dang's grandfather heard this, he sighed, and said after a long time: " Yin Fu Jing is an ancient book, who did it, no one knows, only know that it is found from the wall of a Taoist temple rubbing, after rubbing, the Taoist temple wall immediately collapsed, not a word exists, and then rubbed out of the rubbing, after several tosses and turns, the outside are some manuscripts, hundreds of years ago, there are many people who try their best to understand the truth in the Yin Fu Sutra, but unfortunately, know a lot of one or two, three or four rare, can dare to say that they have the Yin Fu Sutra fifty percent, never appeared. ”
"However, even if the Yin Fu Sutra has been studied three or four times, it has not brought much benefit to your practice, but there are two crazy ones, and later there are rumors that the Yin Fu Sutra rubbing is the version that has not been changed one word, and what is circulated outside is a wrong version, and the difference between one word is thousands of miles, making people crazy, it is not strange, so, over time, this Yin Fu Sutra will also disappear and look for traces, and the world is rarely heard of, but your grandfather and I have a wide range of knowledge, and I have read this book. ”
Fang Dang's grandfather waited, seeing that Fang Dang didn't make a sound of admiration as he expected, he couldn't help but feel slightly depressed, he felt that he had no dignity at all in front of his grandson, and finally found something to show off, but it was like playing the piano to a cow, Fang Dang didn't feel anything at all.
Fang Dang's grandfather continued: "The so-called way of observing the sky, the journey of holding the sky, is complete. That is to say, observing the laws of the operation of all things in heaven and earth, mastering their laws and doing according to their laws, then the way of heaven and earth, yin and yang, and movement will be fully included. Therefore, there are five thieves in the sky, and when they see it, they will prosper. It is said that there are five elements of qi between heaven and earth, and when the five elements are born together, all things will be prosperous. As for the five thieves in the heart and in the sky, it means that they understand and master the principle of restraint of the five elements, and act in harmony with the sky. ”
"Of course, about the interpretation of these three sentences, a person has a person's statement, just like sitting on the same ground and looking at Yue, sitting at different angles can see different scenery, so, you don't have to take my explanation as the only one, you can also figure out the meaning of the inner meaning by yourself, maybe you think more appropriately, after all, the guy who wrote the Yin Fu Sutra does not explain it himself, and the opinions of others can be described by blind guessing. ”
Fang Dang nodded, quite agreeing with his grandfather's words, there are as many people in this world as there are thoughts, one person is the same, and there is no authority of whom.
Fang Dang thought hard, his mind was full of these three sentences, these three sentences made Fang Dang's head swell, that feeling was like eating too much at once, his stomach was swollen like a bulge, he was nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Fang Dang even felt a little dizzy, Fang Dang vaguely felt that he had heard something he shouldn't have heard and couldn't bear, so he was like this.
Fang Dang couldn't figure it out, his head hurt and he had to shake his head to dispel the three sentences that were constantly circling in his ears.
At this time, the corners of Fang Dang's clothes were moved, and Fang Dang came to his senses and found that he had arrived at the gate of Wangjing City.
There was a long queue in front of the city gate, all waiting to enter the city.
Fang Dang looked at it, there were ordinary vegetable farmers and hawkers, as well as gorgeous carriages, all of them were honestly queuing.
The speed of the procession was very fast, and in about two quarters of an hour, Fang Dang and the others came to the city gate.
A black-armored sword sergeant in the team stepped forward and handed over the paper, and the guards guarding the door looked at it and only allowed the carriage and Princess Jing's guards to enter, and of course the three hundred black-armored sword and halberd sergeants were not allowed to enter it.
The black-armored sword and halberd sergeants sent the princess here, and it was done.
Then the black-armored sword and halberd sergeants withdrew, leaving only Princess Jing and Gonggong Zhang's carriage entourage.
Fang Dang followed the carriage into Wangjing, the thousand-year-old imperial capital.
It was the first time for Fang Dang to see such a crowded street, such a lively city, where everywhere gave people a feeling of being in full swing, and no matter where he went, he couldn't avoid the hustle and bustle on the street.
There are all kinds of snacks on the street, all kinds of vegetables and fruits, and miscellaneous goods.
However, the main attraction is the dragon flags that can be seen everywhere on the streets.
As soon as he saw these dragon flags, Fang Dang seemed to see the old dragon suspended above Wangjing again.
Even if he just thought about it, Fang Dang felt that he was afraid for a while, but he couldn't find any specific reason, and he didn't know what he was afraid of. Maybe this is what Zheng Shou and others said about Long Wei.
These dragon flags have been carefully counted, and the dragons on these dragon flags are all five-clawed, and none of them are three-clawed dragons.
The pigeon and the others had never seen such prosperity, and their heads were turning back and forth, looking around, and they were stunned by the buildings that were twenty meters high, and the outside of these buildings were either hung with rows of lanterns or pulled with flags of various colors, which were particularly lively.
As the flow of people moved all the way, the surroundings slowly became clearer, and Grandpa Zhang led the team to the outside of a quiet courtyard.
This is King Hongzheng's other courtyard in the capital, and Princess Jing has not yet married the third prince, so naturally she can't live directly with the third prince.
When you get here, you're home.
Zheng Shou and the others began to pack up their things, and of course Fang Dang didn't just look at it, and stepped forward to help.
Princess Jing stepped down from the carriage at this time, took a look at this quaint building, seemed to be in a low mood, and walked into the mansion silently.
The land of Wangjing is expensive, and it is the same here, in addition, the place of Wangjing, whether you are a dragon or a snake outside, you have to coil and keep a low profile when you come here.
Even King Hong Zheng didn't dare to do too much ostentatiousness in Wangjing, so the scale of this building was not large, that is, it was more spacious than ordinary rich households.
The room had already been cleaned up by a few slaves guarding the house, and even the hot water was ready to come out, Princess Jing trekked all the way, and the conditions on the road were extremely poor, of course, there was no chance to take a happy bath, so the steaming bath bucket in the room really made Princess Jing happy.
......
"Mother, we're back, are you okay?"
By the waterfall, the female femme fatale, who was shoveling the grass roots under the dead grass with her hoe, suddenly straightened up.
She heard this voice countless times in her dreams, and opened her eyes countless times only to find that there was only darkness in front of her, and when she heard such a sound again, the female snake and scorpion did not dare to look back, she wanted to hear more of Ding Ku'er's voice and Ding Suan'er's voice, even if it was in a dream, so he didn't dare to look back, for fear that once he turned around, this dream would be shattered.
"Mother, what are you doing, are you digging grass roots?" Ding Ku'er's voice sounded bitterly.
The female snake and scorpion was enjoying Ding Ku'er's voice with her eyes closed, and her eyes were slightly fixed at this time, and this voice did not look like she was in a dream.
The female snake and scorpion slowly turned her head and prayed in her heart, if it was really a dream, then let her take a look at the two sisters, Ding Ku'er and Ding Su'er, and she would be satisfied with just one look.
It's pitiful, she really saw the bitter and sour children that she thought about at night.
The female snake and scorpion's appearance changed dramatically at this time, except for a pair of eyes that were still a little turquoise, the whole person completely changed, the puffy face disappeared, replaced by emaciated cheeks, and a sallow-yellow face.
Although the female snake and scorpion is a hundred times stronger than before, she is obviously malnourished, her waist is stiff, and the female snake and scorpion was drained of blood poison by Fang Dang, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, and it was the time when she needed nutrition the most, but because Ding Ku'er and Ding Acid were not around, she could not replenish nutrition, so her body recovered very slowly.
The female snake and scorpion were in a trance, and Ding Ku'er and Ding Su'er threw themselves into the arms of the female snake and scorpion, holding the female snake and scorpion and crying bitterly.
The female femme scorpion seemed to feel that this was true at this time, not a dream, the female femme scorpion couldn't help but reach out and hold the two daughters firmly, tears were rolling in her eyes, she never thought that she would be able to see these two daughters again in her lifetime.
The mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried, and after a long time, the female snake and scorpion gasped and asked, "Why did you come back? Those guys from Yunjian Mountain let you come back? You should practice Yunjian Mountain, it is a road to heaven that ordinary people dare not think of." ”
Ding Ku'er stretched out her hand and touched the emaciated cheekbones of the female snake and scorpion: "Mother, you have lost weight like this, if we don't come back, what will happen to you?"
The female femme fatale couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "Silly child, can't your mother and I survive without you?"
Busteric picked up a broken basket on the ground, full of all sorts of bark and grass roots.
"Mother, you just eat this? On such a cold day, you live on this?" said Ding Su'er sobbing silently.
The female femme fatale glanced at the basket with only seven or eight roots and one or two pieces of bark, and after her lips squirmed twice, she could not come up with any good excuses, so she could only gently pat the two girls on the shoulders.
Ding Ku'er hurriedly took out the steamed buns in his pocket, held them in both hands and sent them to the female snake and scorpion, while Ding Su'er took out the pickled vegetables and dried meat he was carrying and sent them to the female snake and scorpion.
The female snake and scorpion moved her throat, since the two girls were taken away by the disciples of Yunjian Mountain, she had never eaten a meal eaten by people, she had bad legs and feet, and she couldn't go down the mountain, and there was not much food in his house at all, the female snake and scorpion could only drag her heavy body, shaving grass roots and bark in the ice and snow to satisfy her hunger.
