There is a person on the left, with a pale gold dark grid on his shoulder, and inside is a Yaoqin, and as he marches, the Yaoqin also seems to have a pleasant sound.

A person on the right shoulder, with the same pale gold dark grid on his shoulder, but inside is a suspended scroll, which seems to float and sink in the dark grid, and each of the ups and downs is full of light and shadow, which is extremely special.

The three of them went upstairs at the same time, and the shopkeeper bent down deeply, and didn't even ask nonsense such as "what did the three sons use to pay the bills", and the whole person almost fell down.

However, the three of them went upstairs, their backs were no longer visible, and the shopkeeper was angry again......

Lin Su has the Tongtian card, but there are no contribution points in the Tongtian card at present, and it may not be the time to "pay salary" every month, so he is not qualified to go to the second floor at all, so he can only spend a hundred taels of silver in the hall below and eat a big bowl of rice.

One hundred taels of silver, in the lower realm, it is equivalent to the monthly salary of the prime minister, and it can buy twenty yellow flower girls, even on the side of the temple, it has the same strong purchasing power, enough for the normal expenses of dozens of Lin Su's permanent residents for a month.

But here, it's just a bowl of rice!

And there's no food yet!

On top of the rice, a piece of meat that I don't know what kind of meat it is, plus three green vegetable leaves, is considered a vegetable!

Lin Su is not an uninformed person, he has seen the "black" of those merchants in Yaocheng who "have not opened for ten years, and have been open for ten years" when the Yaochi meeting was held, but he still has to admit that the blackness of the merchants in the world is small compared to the city outside the sky.

This was the first feeling, but soon, Lin Su seemed to feel the true intention of the temple through the discussion in the restaurant.

The temple is layered!

They are deliberately strengthening the class!

On the temple side, there is a consensus that everyone agrees, and that is that the Babel card is the only way to enter the outer heavens.

But in fact, as soon as Lin Su arrived in Zhicheng, he found that the real situation was not the case.

There is an endless stream of people on the street, and ninety-nine percent of them do not have a Tongtian card.

Those cultivators who hold the main position of guarding the border, the service staff in the restaurant, and the practitioners in the green building are even more unlikely to have the Tongtian card.

Aren't they people?

The answer was cruel, and in the eyes of the temple higher-ups, they really weren't!

They were just tools to serve the people in the temple, they were just the dust of the city, so in the minds of the temple masters, these people were automatically filtered out.

This is the ubiquitous stratification of classes in the world.

Nowhere is this more evident than here.

Those who have the Tongtian card have made meritorious achievements, offered advice, and obtained the treasure of heaven and earth outside the territory......

can be exchanged for contribution points.

And without the Tongtian card, you are a black household without an ID card, and no matter how great your feats are, you will only be rewarded with silver tickets, and it is impossible to reward contribution points.

What can you do with contribution points? Buy food, buy drink, buy land, buy natural treasures, buy yellow flower girls, and even be able to atone.

In a word: the work that silver can do, and the contribution points are all capable.

However, the reverse is not true, and the contribution point can do the work, but the silver may not be able to do it.

For example, the heavenly and earthly treasures of the temple Wenbao Hall, such as the penitential sin, these are not capable of silver.

Silver is for the subordinate, and contribution points are for the master—this is what the temple emphasizes to all kinds of people at all times.

In this way, the temple hierarchy was strengthened and the dominance of literature and Taoism was demonstrated.

Even if it's just a restaurant for a meal, it's all preaching this.

People who have contribution points are considered people, they have the qualifications to go to the second floor, they have the qualifications to order food, and those who do not have contribution points lose the qualifications to order food, and they can only stand in the hall to eat, and a hundred taels of silver is a "customized dish", are you not enough? Another hundred taels of silver will add a bowl to you......

After eating, Lin Su walked out of the restaurant, in front of which was a small lake, a small lake in the border city, and the lake was still leisurely, quite Jiangnan flavor.

The weeping willows were lightly raised, the blue waves were rippling, Lin Su strolled by, and a voice came directly into his sea of knowledge: "Do you have some feelings, it is difficult to move an inch in the city without a contribution point?" ”

The voice came from a suppa.

The Supa that Tianyan gave him, the messenger he had with her.

"You saw the embarrassment just now?" Lin Su's voice returned.

Ming Tianyan smiled lightly: "I can actually give your Tongtian card tens of thousands of contribution points, so that you can go up to the second floor, but I think you may prefer to experience the world at the bottom level." ”

"You are wrong, the bottom understands the world, that is a long-term high-level position, does not eat the fireworks of the world, and I, I am from the bottom, my creed has always been to enjoy never hardship, the most important thing is that the bowl of rice, really can't swallow, I think the chef in this restaurant, probably retired from the pig farm, and it is very likely that those pigs have to retreat under the collective protest of the ......"

Ming Tianyan probably had a sour expression: "Your teeth are sharp and sharp, I have already understood, so don't waste your tongue on this trivial matter...... Let's talk about an important thing, how do you feel about the three sons of the Holy Son coming to the city at the same time? ”

"Three Holy Sons!" Lin Su said: "Who is it? ”

"The one on the left, the holy son of Lejia Fengyang, the one on the right, the painter Wu Liben, and the one in the middle who needs special attention, he is the Confucian holy son Kong Shengyan!" Ming Tianyan said: "These holy sons are not the holy sons you see in the world, they are the real holy sons!" ”

"The true Son, their Father...... Is it really holy? ”

"There are also mothers who are holy! For example, Lejia Fengyang, he is the seventh son of Lejia Sage! ”

"The seventh son...... There are a lot of sons and daughters, right? ”

"Many!" Ming Tianyan said: "Twenty-seven Confucian saints and daughters, thirteen musicians and saints, and painters are considered to be few, only nine ......"

There are only nine ......

Only......

Lin Su sighed infinitely: "Admire! ”

"What does it mean to admire?"

"Admiration means sincere admiration. The saint is not young, but for the sake of the successors above the holy path, one by one, regardless of old age and weakness, hard work, this dedication, let me wait for the future generations to be embarrassed? ”

Ming Tianyan was a little surprised, she seriously suspected that someone Lin was saying the opposite, but she had no evidence.

Of course, what Lin Su said was the opposite!

As soon as he stepped into the temple, he was caught in the throat of the temple's greatest current evils.

The temple may seem like a harmonious mess, but it is more divided than anywhere else.

The greatest division is the division of the Tao.

A family with one surname, one with the Lord.

Orthodox Confucianism, from top to bottom, the surname Kong.

Taoist orthodoxy, from top to bottom, surnamed Li.

The Mo family is orthodox, and the surname is Mo from top to bottom.

Legalism is orthodox, and the surname is Xun from top to bottom......

is not this surname, there is no way to become orthodox, for example, Luo Wuxin, originally a peerless poet, just because he was not surnamed Li, he couldn't stay in the Poetry Palace, so he was full of resentment towards the Poetry Palace, and then switched to the White Pavilion, and later, whether there was a reason or not, he had to step on the Poetry Palace.

There are many people like him.

The Holy Dao was originally a great avenue, but in this case, it became a small circle of interests composed of surnames.

The way is not the way!

The saint is high in the triple heavens, and he knows this kind of malpractice better than anyone else, and he should have changed this dead end, but how did they do it? We are going further and further down the road of division.

In the palace under their banner, the palace master needs to have a surname with them, and the key departments in the palace need to have a surname with them, and the holy family below is even more so, a surname is a country.

Now it's a step further.

They probably think that a surname alone is not enough to keep their line pure, so they simply come and sow their own seeds in person, isn't it? Therefore, the saints began to compare their sons, painters gave birth to nine, Nale family gave birth to thirteen, and Confucianism gave birth to twenty-seven......

What are you doing here?

O saint, where is this saint?

Of course, these are not what they can question in front of them, and there is only one problem they are facing in front of them: why did the three descendants of the Holy Son, who would not easily set foot in the border city, suddenly come to Zhicheng?

Regarding this, Lin Su smiled faintly: "They came in person, and they probably have only one mission, to send me out of the customs!" ”

Ming Tianyan also smiled lightly: "No matter what the final result is, at least your first difficulty will be easily solved!" ”

What is the first hurdle?

Out of the customs!

It's not easy to get out!

Why?

This also starts with the city of "Zhicheng......

Zhicheng, originally not called Zhicheng, it was called Bingcheng.

Yes, the city of the Soldier Saint.

A thousand years ago, there were a total of eighteen border cities outside the temple, one holy city and one city, to fight against foreign demons.

Originally, it was also very stable, but thousands of years ago, the Bing Sheng broke the balance, he went out, the reason for the exit is a mystery, some people say that the combat gene in the bones of the Bing Sheng is too strong, unwilling to stick to it, and seek a way to break through, and some people say that he was framed by someone and led to the outside of the territory.

The cause is no longer important, what matters is the effect.

He went out of the customs and fell outside the territory.

The military city has no saints, and it has become a place for foreign fierce demons to attack and plunder, millions of demons rushed through the customs with all their might, the old department of the military palace was swept away, the military city was lost, and the demons invaded by a large attack, and they were about to break through the temple defense line and go directly to the hinterland of the temple.

Since then, this military city has been changed to "Zhicheng".

Confucianism took over the border city.

Some people say that this is a landmark event in the Great Dao Battle, because it marks the defeat of the military family and the strength of Confucianism.

Next, Zhicheng was transformed according to Confucian ideas.

This transformation is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Why?

Because the two ideas are completely different, the soldiers talk about confrontation, the military city has always been the most combative city in the eighteen border cities of the temple, such a city, objectively speaking, the people live very hard, every day in a tense atmosphere, and after Confucianism took over, the tense life has completely changed, the border city has become the south of the Yangtze River, who doesn't like those literati?

Some people say that it is precisely because of this before and after that Confucianism really completely overwhelms the soldiers in the minds of everyone, and this kind of transformation is actually part of the battle of the Great Dao.

The topic is back to the exit!

It is precisely because the purpose of Confucianism is: "to build a city to stop", so the border protection is still very tight.

On the one hand, it is forbidden for the demons to enter the customs, and on the other hand, it is also forbidden for the people here to leave the customs.

However, some things are never absolute, and you can't ban them if you want to, why?

There are some supplies in the foreign lands that the temple cannot leave.

For example, the exotic heavenly treasures are the things needed by the Temple Array Palace, the Instrument Palace, and even the Wenbao Palace and the Medical Palace, which are irreplaceable, and once they are completely sealed, many high-end treasures in these palaces will have no source of materials.

Everything in this world is like this, where there is demand, there must be supply.

The supply is less, the scarcity is expensive, and the price is skyrocketing.

As soon as the price is high, the stimulation of people is not something that can be sealed by a ban.

Those practitioners will also take risks in the pursuit of huge profits.

And the temples, based on the urgent need for materials, will also put pressure on the temple higher-ups.

In the end, out of the customs to hunt for danger, out of the customs to seize treasures, become an industrial chain, the temple after a period of open investigation and secret release, one eye and one eye closed the process, simply take the bright road, set up a customs clearance department, people who plan to go out of the customs, report first, life and death are at their own risk, after returning, all the income is on the clear road, by the customs clearance department is responsible for the acquisition, to avoid these materials into the temple black saint, disrupting the normal order.

Therefore, there is a way for Lin Su to get out of the customs today.

Of course, judging from the festival between Lin and the temple leaders, if the temple leaders deliberately block it, it will be difficult for Lin to do whatever he wants, including customs reporting, and people also have articles to do, so they can completely avoid his reporting.

However, things are scared but......

If the three Holy Sons from the Triple Heaven originally intended to send Lin someone outside the territory to kill him, no matter how big the obstacle was, they would also help Lin Su clean up.

Therefore, Ming Tianyan said that at least the first difficulty Lin Su faced was not a difficulty!

Two people, no! One person and one Supa set foot on the street to the customs clearance division.

The Customs Clearance Division is very lively, which is completely different from the rest of the city.

If Zhicheng is said to be Yanyu Jiangnan, the Customs Clearance Division is like a wharf.

Because this is the place of customs clearance, but also the place of return, customs clearance represents struggle, and return represents harvest.

People in and out, all kinds of people, there are people with extraordinary abilities, there are cultivators, of course, the main body is still practitioners, outside the territory, it is the territory outside the coverage of literature and Taoism, literati go out is basically looking for death, as a high-end literati, who is a fool? Therefore, few literati will get out of the customs.

Precisely because the people who enter and leave are "people" who are not regarded as human beings by the temple higher-ups, the attitude of the Customs Clearance Department is also surprisingly poor.

When Lin Su arrived, he heard the voice of the literati in the Customs Clearance Department roaring......

"Damn, are you a pig brain, do you have to work so hard to fill out a form?"

"Mother, do you have long ears, what Lao Tzu said is, you fill in what you are going to do, you give Lao Tzu a 'chance', what is the chance? Red Blood Grass or Dream Soul Beads, or Demon Neidan, you can fill it! Rewrite! A piece of paper was thrown directly to the practitioner in front of him, floating on the ground, and was stepped on by a person next to him, the practitioner bent down and picked it up again, and continued to fill it with his butt on the side......

"You group of cultivators, you are really stupid as pigs, Lao Tzu is a dignified literary world, you are about to be driven crazy by you, come on, Lao Tzu will teach you to fill in, the return date, you can write a rough date, you give Lao Tzu a 'come back when the thing is done', don't you talk nonsense? When the thing is done, the pigs know that they have to come back, refill!! ”

The shouting and denunciation are mixed with vulgarity that cannot be heard in the literati world, and the scene is like a vegetable market......

Lin Su had just approached when a holy light suddenly came from above.

The Holy Light docked with his Tongtian card, a holy Dao power, and there was no longer a customs clearance scene like a vegetable market in front of Lin Su, but a house, and in the middle of the house, there was a young literati standing with an elegant appearance, and smiled slightly at Lin Su: "Brother Tai came to the customs clearance department, what's the matter?" ”

Lin Su bowed slightly: "Report when you go out of customs!" ”

"Out of customs?" The young man was slightly surprised: "Why did you get out of the customs?" ”

"Find some chance!" Lin Su Dao.

Looking for an opportunity, this will be scolded at the customs clearance scene below, but the literati in front of him is very friendly: "Can Brother Tai show the next Tongtian card?" ”

As soon as Lin Sutong's card lit up, the young man was shocked: "Lin Sulin is always on the line!" It's you! The younger brother Mei Qilang, who has heard the name of Brother Lin for a long time, really didn't expect to meet here. ”

"Umechiro?" Lin Su was also slightly surprised: "But Mei Zhongzhou, a generation of wizards who was born in a big corner and is famous for his poetry and paintings?" ”

"How dare you!" Mei Qilang said: "In front of Brother Tai, the Wendao Tianjiao, the younger brother's poems and paintings are not worth mentioning, dare to insult Qingting? ”

Sure enough, it was him!

Lin Su had a piece of information in his heart, no, two pieces of information poured in at the same time......

Lin Su has heard of this name......

On the temple book mountain, the first time he saw this name in a book, it was just a short paragraph, he entered the temple six years ago, and he was both poetic and artistic.

Although the record about him is less than twenty words, but it is absolutely extraordinary, you need to know that the temple book mountain is extremely high-end, any name that appears on the book mountain, it represents a stunning masterpiece, and other idlers who are qualified to enter the book mountain "Who's Who"?

What's more, this person came from the Nether Realm and entered the temple from the Nether, that is the best talent!

Even if it is a champion, not everyone is eligible to enter the temple, let alone Who's Who is qualified.

He can enter, and he is crowned with poetry and painting, which is definitely a poetry and painting.

In another piece of information, Lin Su saw another side of him......

That's the Asking Heart Pavilion and the Jingxian Pavilion.

Jingxian Pavilion, is the heart of the Pavilion facing the world's celebrities welcome field, each of the celebrities who come to leave a calligraphy, Lin Su in the name of Zhuge Qingfeng that day, also left two lines of poetry, before him, there are countless celebrities left calligraphy, there are poems and paintings, but there is a word above everyone, that word has only one word: road!

This road word, the mystery is endless, the cultural heritage is extremely profound, Lin Su's judgment that day is: Full Pavilion Wendao, this word is the most!

This word comes from Umechiro!

Mei Qilang's name is not words, but poems and paintings, but what he left in the Wenxin Pavilion was not poetry and painting, but words, even if he was not good at words, he still won the demeanor of the handsome people.

Such a character was met here?

Just an ordinary customs clearance guard of the Customs Clearance Division?

Mei Qilang walked over from behind the desk and gently introduced: "Brother Lin, please take a seat!" My little brother's tea, from my hometown, happened to drink it with my brother. ”

Speaking of this, his expression has changed, it was originally a business-like format, but now, it seems to be a little turbulent.

Lin Su sat down, Mei Qilang personally poured tea for him, put Bai Hao into the cup, and swirled leisurely in the water......

Mei Qilang held up the teacup: "Brother Lin, replace wine with tea, toast you!" ”

"Little brother also respects Brother Mei!" Lin Su also held the cup opposite each other and took a sip gently.

Mei Qilang's teacup was gently placed on the coffee table, and the water surface of the teacup was like a wave, and the waves gently rippled, covering him and Lin Su.

Lin Su's heart jumped, Wendao blockade, and it was a Wendao blockade with great skill.

What is the intention?

Mei Qilang slowly raised his head: "I know that Brother Lin wants to get out of the customs, and the younger brother also understands why Brother Lin got out of the customs, Brother Lin, listen to the advice of the younger brother, dispel this idea, don't get out of the customs!" ”

The last eight words are pressed very low.

Lin Su said: "Why? ”

"Because there are three people who have just come to Zhicheng, they want Brother Lin to get out of the customs, and what they want you to do is something that you can't do!"

As soon as this sentence came out, Lin Su was shocked......

Mei Qilang raised his eyes and looked at him quietly, his eyes full of sincerity......

"Brother Mei...... Why did Brother Mei ......?"

Mei Qilang's hand was raised slightly: "In the temple materials, it is recorded that the younger brother is from Osumi, but can Brother Lin know where is the exact place of birth of the younger brother?" ”

"Where?"

"Meishan!"

Meishan!

Although it is a big place, it is also the hometown of the old Lu, a generation of great Confucian Zhou Yi established a righteous village here, sheltered the orphans of the old Lu courtiers, and Lin Sumei Mountain discussed righteousness, and had the same interests.

Mei Qilang said slowly: "The younger brother received the great grace of his father-in-law, and his surname should have been Zhou, but his old man resolutely did not allow it, and the father-in-law said that when I was young, he shouldered the wind and rain for us, and when I became an adult, I must restore the ancestral surname, continue the wishes of the ancestors, and not be shackled by him. ”

Zhou Yi! Sure enough, it is Zhou Yizhi's righteous son!

Zhou Yi received thousands of children of court officials, and his righteous sons and daughters were all over the world.

Mei Qilang said: "Just after Shangyuan, the younger brother received a letter from his father-in-law, this book is the only time that my father-in-law passed the book after I left home, and the younger brother carried it with him, please take a look at Brother Lin today!" ”

As soon as his hand moved, a piece of gold paper was handed to Lin Su......

"Qilang: Today, there is a big cangzhuang, Lin Su, came to Yizhuang, and talked with his father very happily, this son's road, the road to access, for his father and he met in danger, and his temple road, is also difficult, my son should stand side by side with it, live up to the father's trust! Father-in-law: Zhou Yi. ”

Lin Su stood up, respectfully folded the gold paper, faced the southwest, and bowed slightly.

Mei Qilang also stood up: "Brother Lin's extraterritorial trip, can he be rerouted because of the younger brother?" ”

Lin Su said: "I'm sorry Brother Mei, this trip is still imperative!" ”

Mei Qilang said: "Imperative? ”

"Imperative!"

Mei Qilang pondered for a long time: "That's good, Brother Lin's exit, don't take the ordinary road, the younger brother will arrange an unusual road for my brother......"

Lin Su left the Customs Clearance Division and returned to the city.

A restaurant is inferior, but it is better to be quiet.

As soon as the door closed, there was a fluctuation on the Supa in Lin Su's arms...... (End of chapter)
