Chapter 16: Koike Town
"Squeak......
"Hey......" Ye Tian saw the door of Pude's meditation room, which was opened from the inside by the Fa Xiang. Seeing him looking at himself with a smile on his face, he was about to step forward to ask, when he saw Fa Xiang's whole person fly out like a hungry tiger pounced, and fell in front of the gate of the Zen temple with a "bang......".
Ye Tian hurriedly ran over to help Fa Xiang up, and vaguely heard Fa Xiang say in a low voice: "Run...... run." Ye Tian instantly understood what he meant, and hurriedly supported Fa Xiang, and walked briskly outside the door without daring to turn his head.
After walking out of the door, Ye Tian recalled the scene just now, he saw that after the Fa Xiang flew out, where the original Fa Xiang was standing, in the position of the buttocks, there was something that flashed very fast, but Ye Tian was sure that it was a mango shoe, although many monks in the temple wore mango shoes, but in this courtyard, only the master was wearing mango shoes. Even though he knew that Faxiang must have been kicked out by the master, in order to verify his conjecture, Ye Tian still tilted his head back and looked down at Guan Xiang's ass, and sure enough, it ......
After the two of them left the monastery, they ran out for a distance, after making sure that Pude couldn't hear. Ye Tian asked in a low voice: "It was my master who kicked you out, don't say anything about stumbling or something, I saw the shoe prints on your buttocks." ”
was asked by Ye Tian, and Fa Xiang's white face immediately turned red like a monkey's ass: "Eh, Senior Brother Yingming, you know and I know this, and Uncle Pude knows it, don't let the fourth person know, if the senior brother needs help in the future, as long as the senior brother can do it, it doesn't matter." ”
"Really......" Ye Tian asked with some disbelief.
"It must be true, the monks don't lie......" Fa Xiang stopped and looked at Ye Tiandao with a sincere face.
Seeing that the law does not seem to be fake, after all, this good baby apprentice of the abbot and uncle, although he has been led astray by himself recently, he still does not dare to talk about the precepts, Ye Tian does not lie and says directly: "Okay, senior brother is happy, junior brother just has something to ask you." I heard Senior Brother Fa Yu say, you and Senior Brother Fa Shan are going down the mountain, right? You see, my brother and I have been in Tianyin Temple for five years, and I have been imprisoned in that dark place for an unknown amount of time, and I don't know what this mundane world looks like. So, I want to ask my senior brother to take me down the mountain together, of course, in return, I will give you my "Six-Character Da Ming Mantra", haven't you always wanted to learn it, how about it? ”
"Uh...... Just this matter...... "Fa Xiang didn't expect Ye Tian to make this request, and felt that he needed to confirm it again.
"That's it, what's the matter, is it difficult for senior brother to do. I know that the abbot and my master will not allow me to go down the mountain, for fear that the enemy will seek revenge on me, but it's been five years, and my appearance has changed somewhat, and no one will recognize me. Ye Tian thought that the law minister would not agree to him, and continued.
When he was sure that Ye Tian was indeed asking him for this, he was secretly happy in his heart, and said: "Okay, I promise you, but junior brother, you have to give me the "Six-Character Great Ming Mantra" first, otherwise who knows if you will run away after you go down the mountain." "Ye Tian's speed, the law phase knows, without the help of any magic weapon, the speed of the direct body volley void crossing does not have to fly slowly, or even much faster.
"Senior brother, you've learned badly." Ye Tian looked at Fa Xiang with a smile, regretting that he had nothing to tell him any miscellaneous stories, but he didn't think too much and continued: "Look at this, I'll give you the first three words of the Great Ming Mantra first." When I get out, I'll give you the rest, how about Senior Brother? ”
"Okay...... " Fa Xiang said with a difficult face.
Seeing that Fa Xiang finally agreed, Ye Tian put his hand into his arms, and took out a copy of "Six-Character Da Ming Mantra" from the space under the cover of his clothes, which Ye Tian copied when he had nothing to do, opened the scriptures and found the connection between the "Yet" mantra and the "horn" mantra, and "hissed" the scriptures with both hands, one for two, Ye Tian handed the first half to Fa Xiang, waved the lower half of his hand and said: "Senior brother, you learn the first half first, wait for the second half of the mountain, I will give you the second half." ”
Fa Xiang took over the first half of the "Six-Character Da Ming Mantra", and looked at the position torn by Ye Tian distressedly, for fear that when the scriptures were torn, they would take off one side of the corner. He kept muttering, scolding Ye Tian for being a loser.
Seeing Fa Xiang's distressed expression, Ye Tian put away the remaining half of the scriptures and asked, "By the way, senior brother, what are you looking for my master?" ”
"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just that the master asked me to tell Uncle Pude and let you go down the mountain with me......" Fa Xiang opened the scriptures in his hand page by page, and when he heard Ye Tian's question, he said casually, but he regretted it after saying it. Hurriedly put away the scriptures in his hand, and looked at Ye Tian with an embarrassed expression, "Hehe......" I saw Ye Tian's face gloomy, looking at himself intently.
"Senior Brother ...... Minister"
Just when Fa Xiang didn't know how to break this embarrassing atmosphere, he heard a simple voice calling out to him in the distance, and Fa Xiang hurriedly responded: "Here, Senior Fa Shan." ”
After a while, I saw that a tall monk, with a face full of flesh, who looked like a fierce god and evil god ran over, Ye Tian raised his eyes and saw that it was Fa Shan, if it wasn't for the time spent with Fa Shan, who understood him as a person, he would really be preconceived by Fa Shan's face at a glance, thinking that he was an evil monk.
"Ah, Senior Brother Fa Ming is also here, Senior Brother told you, I want you to go down the mountain with us, haven't you always wanted to go down the mountain, this time I finally have a chance, hehe......" Fa Shan said in his honest voice that was not satisfied with his appearance.
"Oh, Senior Brother Faxiang has already told me. By the way, Senior Brother Fashan, have you noticed recently that our senior brother, Master Faxiang, seems to have learned badly recently. The last sentence, Ye Tian said it through gritted teeth.
"Oh yes, how come I didn't find out." Fa Shan turned his head to look at Fa Xiang.
The Fa Xiang on the side was suddenly in a cold sweat by the two of them, just now he was afraid that Ye Tian would tell what happened just now, who knew that Ye Tian also knew to save face for himself, thinking about what he did just now, it was indeed a bit inauthentic. But I took it out after I put everything in my arms, didn't it...... And this Fa Shan is still here. Forget it, let's go down the mountain first.
"Uh-ahem......"
Having made up his mind, Fa Xiangxiang coughed twice, and said with a wandering gaze: "What, let's go, don't go late and miss the appointment time with the other two factions, which will make people misunderstand." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and walked in the direction of the temple gate.
......
After Ye Tian and the three of them left the Tianyin Temple on Mount Meru, they rushed all the way to the southeast for several days, and finally arrived at the place agreed with the other righteous paths, Koike Town, in the middle of the night five days later.
Originally, Ye Tian was going to fly with them, and he would be able to reach Xiaochi Town at noon that day. However, Fa Xiang didn't want to say anything, it was called a kind of practice, but in fact, he was just afraid that Ye Tian would trap him because of what happened in the morning. But after being nagged in Ye Tian's ear for a day, Fa Xiang regretted it, but what about it, he is a senior brother, how can he regret it when he says it. If he is said by Fashan's seemingly honest big mouth, how will he mix in Tianyin Temple in the future. So, I could only grit my teeth and endure it, but this endurance was five days.
The three of them landed on a hillside outside Koike Town, and walked towards the low gate of the town, and when they passed the city gate, Fa Xiang walked quickly to a wooden table on the edge of the city gate, said a few words to the soldier sitting behind the table, and took out three copper plates from his arms, and after writing a few words on the book on the table, he beckoned Ye Tian and Fa Shan to follow the flow of people to the town.
Ye Tian had seen Fa Xiang do this kind of thing several times in the past few days, and every time they needed to rest in a nearby town, Fa Xiang would take them to land outside the city, and then pay the money to enter the city. And like the second goods in the novel who beat up the soldiers guarding the door because they were unwilling to pay the entry tax at all, Ye Tian has never seen any of them, which shows that the ancients in the Zhuxian world have much stronger recognition and enforcement of the tax law than in the previous life.
At first, Ye Tian was still very curious, why didn't he have to bother with landing directly in the city. However, after hearing the explanation of the Fa Xiang, I realized that this was an unwritten rule in the cultivation realm, and the disciples who went down the mountain could not disturb the ordinary people in the mortal world, and they must act in a low-key manner. Since you enter the city and enjoy the convenience brought by the city, then you should pay taxes, and you can't be a maverick just because you have cultivated, otherwise the world will not be chaotic.
By the time the three of them followed the flow of people into the city gate, it was already dark. Leaving the crowded crowd, the three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, they only had one feeling, that is, it was too crowded. Leaving near the city gate, Fa Xiang took Ye Tian and Fa Shan to start wandering around, and after looking for a long time, he couldn't find an inn for guests to stay overnight.
"Senior brother, are you okay, we won't sleep on the streets today." Ye Tian hunched his body, his two arms dangling in front of him, dragging his heavy steps step by step. Ever since Ye Tian's Yuan Shen was inexplicably sealed by Hades's magic, he also began to need sleep to regain his energy like a normal person. However, the only thing that made Ye Tian happy was that even if he didn't eat or drink, his body could still replenish his nutrition by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth.
"You will definitely find the inn, you have to believe the senior brother." Fa Xiang said with a resolute expression.
Listening to Faxiang's words, Ye Tian suddenly rolled his eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "Only by believing in you can you have ghosts, how many times have you said this, the sky is almost bright." After speaking, Ye Tian looked up at the starry sky above his head.
"Look, there's an inn." Just when Fa Xiang was extremely embarrassed by Ye Tian's words, suddenly, Fa Shan on the side stretched out his hand and pointed to an inn in front of him and said.
Fa Xiang looked at Fa Shan beside him with a grateful face, turned around and gave Ye Tian a roll of his eyes, thinking that he was fortunate to have Fa Shan along the way, otherwise he would have to die of embarrassment. Didn't you just take half of your "Da Ming Mantra", as for the sneering at me along the way? Anyway, I'm also your senior brother, so it's okay to leave some noodles.
Ye Tian ignored Fa Xiang's eyes, and he also looked in the direction that Fa Shan was pointing, but he was not looking at the inn that Fa Shan was referring to, but a teahouse not far from the inn.
"Kang...... Division...... Fu ......" Ye Tian read out the name on the plaque of the teahouse word by word.
"Smack......
Ye Tian took his hand away from his face, and a bright red five-finger print appeared on Ye Tian's face, but it quickly dissipated.
"Fa Ming, what's wrong with you......" Fa Shan, who was walking in front, heard Ye Tian's slap in the face, looked back at Ye Tian and asked.
I didn't see it either, so I crossed the Fashan and said, "It's okay, let's go." ”
"Oh......" Fa Shan looked at Ye Tian's back as he walked away for some reason, and raised his heels.
Ye Tian, who was walking in front, muttered from time to time: "I must have come to the fake Zhuxian world...... I must have come to the fake world of Zhuxian......"
