Chapter 275: Heading to the capital
On the second day after meeting Hualong, Lin Mo resigned to Zhang Liang and Ning Caichen and prepared to go to the capital. In this regard, Zhang Liang, who was still dealing with business matters, could only say goodbye, but Ning Caichen was a little surprised and said after a moment of silence, "If there is fate, we will meet in the capital after a while" - it turned out that Ning Caichen was already preparing to go to the capital to do some activities to see if he could save the teacher Wang Sheng who was imprisoned in the capital.
All in all, after saying goodbye to these two people, Lin Mo immediately flew up and turned into a streamer and headed towards the capital.
The capital of the Great Xia Dynasty is called Yanjing, located in the north, and Jinhua is thousands of miles away, if it is an ordinary mortal, I am afraid that it will take more than a month to travel. It's just that in the eyes of cultivators, it's not a thing, Lin Mo only took five days to rush to Yanjing, which is still useless in the case of the copycat version of somersault cloud.
As the capital of a dynasty, Yanjing naturally has a huge number of people and luck to protect each other, because of its existence, compared to rushing to the top of Echeng and then directly turning into light, Lin Mo is much more cautious this time, there are still dozens of miles away from Yanjing, he took the initiative to descend the streamer, and stepped on the official road as a mortal. However, even at this distance, with Lin's gaze, he could see the dragon-shaped luck entrenched in the sky above Yanjing with a single glance.
"Hmm, just looking at the situation of this dragon-shaped luck, I also know that the number of Great Xia Qi is not good!"
Although the luck of the people cannot directly show the future situation of the country, the connection between the two is enough to show many signs. For example, at the moment, although this person's vitality and luck are still converging in the form of a dragon, they have not collapsed and scattered, and there is also a majestic aura that shocks and discloses the hearts of any cultivator. But looking at the tired and feeble curled up, you can see that its condition is not very good-in fact, even the luck of the Southern Song Dynasty, which has already shown the change of dynasty in the Legend of the White Snake, is stronger than it seems.
"It seems that there is only one fuse missing, and the troubled times are really coming!"
With a sigh, Lin Mo retracted his attention and walked forward while checking the situation around him.
At this time, he was on the official road to the capital, although the shape of the Great Xia Dynasty was not good. But outside of this capital city, which is also the most important in several territories. It's still a bit like the prosperity of a hundred years ago, not to mention the post stations on both sides of the wide road, and even tea stalls, and there are a lot of talkers in each of them - but that's not the problem. Just a moment later. Lin Mo's gaze became strange.
"It's weird. There is nothing wrong with a large number of people, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that the camel is not dead. The question is why are there so many monks and Taoists? ”
That's right, although there are many pedestrians coming and going on this official road, nearly half of them are monks and Taoists, and there are some religious people wearing strange costumes who Lin Mo can't tell what kind of way they are, and the number of them is simply surprising. And their direction is also very consistent, they are all heading towards the capital.
What's going on? Lin Mo looked around, and as soon as his mind moved, he stopped his untired footsteps and turned into a tea stall.
The roadside tea stall has five wooden tables, three of which are already occupied, two of which are occupied by a monk and a Taoist priest. The monk and the Taoist priest look to be in their thirties, looking calm, quietly drinking tea while resting, the only difference is the dress of the two and the things they carry: Taoist robes and monks' robes, not to mention, just look at the table of the two, there is a flag with the word 'divination' and a gossip pattern, and a golden tin staff.
After looking at the two of them thoroughly, Lin Mo quietly sat down at the table adjacent to the two of them, greeted a pot of tea, and quietly drank two sips, and then fell silent, as if he was also resting. It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that the Taoist priest got up in exchange for the tea stall owner to give money and leave, that he said, "I will pay for the tea of this Taoist master." ”
A small voice echoed in the tea stall, which immediately caused a reaction, not only other people looked over, but the Taoist priest who was about to pay also turned his head in surprise, and after his eyes quickly and carefully swept over Lin Mo's body, he spoke with a smiling face: "This little brother, you and I have never known each other in our lives, and we can't afford to give kindness like this." ”
Lin Mo is still the improved version of the scholar's costume, and because the material of this costume is expensive, anyone who sees it will think that he is a son-in-law who travels alone. At least this middle-aged Taoist priest in his thirties looks at it, that's what happened.
Lin Mo immediately said: "The Taoist doesn't need to care, I had an adventure when I was young, I was helped by some strangers, and I was quite entangled with Taoism, and now I am just repaying the favor." "Well, that's right, he was accepted by Patriarch Subodhi and did have a constant relationship with Taoism.
When the Taoist priest heard this, his expression was slightly relieved, but he still smiled and said, "It turns out that I am destined for my generation." It's just that even so, the poor road is also deserved. ”
"The Taoist chief doesn't need to say much, the matter is so decided. This is tea money, no need to look for it. Lin Mo didn't allow him to deny it, so he took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and threw it directly at the tea stall owner. The middle-aged boss stretched out his hand to take it, overjoyed, and immediately took out a small money bag from his arms, stuffed the broken silver into it, and then stuffed it into the deepest part of his chest, looking at the posture, even Lin Mo himself would not come back.
Seeing this, the Taoist priest could only helplessly dispel the idea of paying, poured a thank you to Lin Mo, and then pulled up the divination flag and walked out. It's just that he just walked to the door of the tea shop, but after all, he paused, and after hesitating for a while, he turned back to the direction, walked to Lin Mo's table again, sat directly opposite Lin Mo, and said with a smile: "No merit is not rewarded, since Poor Dao has received the favor of the little brother, he should also be rewarded." Why don't you just calculate the future of the little brother by the poor road, as a return? ”
Lin Mo smiled in his heart: Even if this Taoist priest is not stupid, he knows that there is no cause and effect!
After descending from the sky and entering the official road, Lin Mo saw all mortals, and this monk and Taoist priest were no exception. The only difference is that these two people are the most powerful of all the religious people they have seen along the way: although the two of them have not yet stepped into the path of cultivation, and they have not even reached the realm of Qi refining, they are still in the stage of consolidating their foundation before cultivating. If there are no accidents, after a few years, both of them will be able to officially embark on the path of cultivation.
So even though he is also a mortal, this Taoist monk also knows many things, such as leaving no cause and effect as much as possible. After all, no one knows what kind of entanglement this simple cup of tea will turn into in the future.
Of course, in the eyes of the Taoist priest, this is actually due to conservative habits, after all, in his opinion, Lin Mo is just an ordinary mortal, and he has no wealth or even luck, he is not an important person, and there is some cause and effect with such a person, even if it seems to break out after more than ten years, what can it be? In his mind, at most, give him ten cups of tea! used one of his own divination calculations to offset it, or this well-intentioned son-in-law took advantage!
"Anyway, as this little brother said, he has a relationship with my Taoism, so I can even make a good fate." ”
Thinking like this in his heart, the Taoist priest was about to take out his eating guy from his arms and prepare to measure.
But of course he didn't succeed, Lin Mo stopped him with a smile.
"Dao Leader doesn't have to be like this. I wasn't interested in what the future holds, but I wanted to know what was going on right now. He asked in the astonished eyes of the Taoist priest, "Why are so many Taoist monks rushing to the capital?" (To be continued......)
