Chapter 2 Towering Martial Arts

readx;

Due to the existence of Xianyang City, the new capital of the Qin State, and Yong'an City, the capital of the Jin Kingdom, Zhaowu City did not dare to claim to be "the first male city in the world", but in the minds of many Yan people, it has been regarded as the most prosperous and wealthy place in the world. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info At this point, all the people of Yan have a strong consensus and sense of honor, if there are Qin people or Jin people who dare to say bad things about Zhaowu City, I am afraid that they will have to cut their sleeves and duel at this moment.

Zhaowu City occupies a very large area, the inner city that has just begun to be built is only more than ten miles in radius, there are five city gates, and now it has been expanded again and again, and it is no longer known how much it occupies. The new outer city wall is fifteen zhang high, ten zhang thick, all of them are piled up with cyan long stones, glutinous rice and copper juice are poured in the brick joints, even if it is a flying stone hard crossbow, it can be said that it is a golden city soup pool, unbreakable.

Zhaowu City is located in the heart of the vast plain, close to the big river, the waterway is wide, the pipelines are intertwined, the vehicles and boats are fast, the weather is vigorous, it can be said to be a hub place. The city is close to Weishui, and the nearby ditch is dug to lead the Weishui tributaries around the city, and it becomes a moat. There are several wide stone bridges on the river, although there is no fine and gorgeous carving, but it is better than sturdy and durable, wide and atmospheric, enough to drive several carriages in parallel, which is very in line with the character of the Yan people. At the other end of the stone bridge, there were many red-clothed soldiers, all of whom had neat military appearances, solemn expressions, and standard iron knives at their waists, looking majestic.

As soon as Old Lady Su's carriage arrived at the stone bridge, the soldiers had already stood solemnly and saluted to welcome Old Lady Su's carriage. As for the steps such as name verification and car search, they are naturally skipped. -- Old lady Su wants to sit when he enters the court, and who of these sergeants dares to stop his car?

The convoy quickly passed through the cave and entered the city of Zhaowu. Passing through the faintly lit hole, Su Qi saw the prosperous scene in front of him clearly. The carriage entered from the southeast city gate, and the place it passed through was the official city of Yan Guo. I saw people coming and going on the road, rubbing shoulders one after another, and the shops on both sides were full of buyers, and it was very lively.

Su Dengxiao lifted the curtain and looked outside, and said with some excitement: "Su Qi! Is this Zhaowu City?

Su Qi also came to Zhaowu City for the first time, looking curiously at the lively scene in the city, and unconsciously brought a smile on his face. Along the way, people saw that Old Lady Su's car was all respectfully flashed to the side, and even a few Chinese people saluted the carriage quite excitedly. This feeling is not only the respect for an important minister of the state, but also the worship of a powerful practitioner in the temple.

Although most civilians were unable to break through the Three Realms in their lifetime, this did not mean that they did not care about the affairs of cultivators. In fact, in the Yan Kingdom, almost all the people of the country have an almost blind worship and admiration for cultivators, especially those who are powerful and hold important positions.

Above the Five Realms, he can be regarded as a high-level cultivator. And there are only two ways to break through the five realms, which have never changed since ancient times.

The first is the Tao of Ruthlessness. Practitioners of the Ruthless Dao should be ruthless and extinguished, incarnate nature, die and live, and achieve the realm of "heaven and earth are not benevolent". Although this road may not sound good, it is good that it is easy to do, and although the road is long, there is something to look forward to after all. Most of the disciples of those great sects in the hidden world, such as Biluohai and Ethereal Mountain, are practicing the ruthless Dao, so they rarely go down the mountain and don't ask about the world, and it often takes more than a hundred years of quiet penance before a few core disciples can break through the Seven Realms.

The second is the way of affection. Once the Dao mind changes, it means that all the previous efforts of the practitioner will be in vain, and if they act against the Dao mind, they will also seriously slow down their cultivation progress. But the sentient path is easy to ascend to the sky in one step, once the practitioner's perception of life reaches a certain level, he can quickly break through the realm, and the canonized Fan Li, Shang Ying, Guan Zhong and others are all cultivating the sentient path. It's just that this path is extremely risky, and it is far less secure than the ruthless road.

Therefore, most of the practitioners of later generations have chosen the direction of cultivation from the very beginning. Most of the cultivators who choose the Ruthless Path will join some hidden sects, go out of retreat, clear their minds and calm their minds, and eliminate mundane thoughts in their hearts. Cultivators who choose the sentient path should actively join the WTO, join various major countries to seek official positions, or enrich the country and strengthen the army, or use martial arts to establish honors, and constantly sharpen their Dao heart in the red dust.

The reason why Old Lady Su is respected is precisely because he is one of the few Seven Realm powerhouses in Yan Kingdom who practice the Tao of Affection.

All the commoners in the world know such a consensus: the powerhouses of the Seven Realms who practice the Ruthless Dao are not necessarily bad people, but the powerhouses of the Seven Realms who practice the Ruthless Dao must be good people. Because since these people can elevate their cultivation to the seventh realm through the sentient path, they must always adhere to their Dao heart, and once they become evil, it means that they have to disperse their whole body cultivation and return to the fifth realm, which is too costly, and no one can afford it.

Only then did Su Qi know that Old Lady Su had such a huge influence among the civilians of Yan Kingdom.

After a short time, the carriage came to the center of the official city. Su Qi has also roughly seen all kinds of people from all over the world in Zhaowu City.

Those ranger swordsmen with red clothes and arrow sleeves and long hair are the most special group of people in Yan Kingdom. The heroic and chivalrous style in the market of Yan Kingdom is very strong, and these market rangers with swords and uncrowned are loners who are free from the law, and maintain justice in their eyes in the most simple way in the countryside. These people are free and loose, but they are very fierce, and if they reach Xianyang, I am afraid that they will be arrested and executed according to the law within three days.

Those young men and women who wore various colors of clothes, looked obviously cultivators, but were indifferent, and did not eat the fireworks of the world at all, were the children of many outer sects in the hidden world, and most of them came to Zhaowu City to buy some heavenly and earthly treasures to go back for the core disciples in the sect to break through the realm. Although these disciples have a low level of cultivation, they represent the face of the great sect, so no one dares to mess with them in the city. Fortunately, the big sects often have a lot of rules, and these disciples don't dare to fly around the city and pick quarrels and provoke trouble.

Hu Shang is also one of the very special groups of people. The Hu people are also the Huns, since the armistice between the Yan State and the Xiongnu, the two sides began to trade with each other, the Yan State bought good horses from the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu bought fine iron, silk and sea salt from the Yan State. Slowly, many Hu merchants also went deep into the interior of Yan and started doing business in Zhaowu City. In many Hu Feng ancient residences, the enthusiastic and enchanting Hu Nu is deeply loved by some sons of the world. Hu Shang had a bold personality, and he often traded large quantities of goods, so he quickly gained a firm foothold in Zhaowu City.

In addition, there are also merchants from the Qin and Jin dynasties, people from Zhaowu City, knights who travel all over the world, and sons and brothers of great families...... In the bustling crowd, there are all kinds of people, and Su Qi couldn't help but sigh: "Towering Zhaowu, sword and bravery." ”
