"Enter the city to pay the city gate tax, ten yuan per person, double the merchant, and the scholar is exempt from tax!"

At this time, it was late, the heavy rain stopped, and leaving from the river, Qiu Shaohu came to the city gate, and wanted to enter Kangjing, but he directly heard the shouts of the doorman who registered the register.

"Hey, you!" A doorman saw Qiu Shaohu and shouted: "You have to enter the city quickly, don't be rubbing, the city gate will be closed at night." During the day, a group of people came in, I didn't let them in, and I blew them all away, and now you are a vendor, if you want to come in, hurry up! ”

He saw that Qiu Shaohu was a fresh face, and he didn't look like a scholar who entered Beijing, so he directly regarded the other party as a passing businessman, and was thinking about how to extract more money from the other party.

"This person is wrong, he is not a merchant, but Langzhong who walks the rivers and lakes. How much will I have to pay for the gate tax? Qiu Shaohu said as he stepped forward with a smile, handing over a small package and a customs clearance document at the same time.

This time, he gave himself a fake identity as Lang Zhong, after all, Kang Jing is not like Chaomen, and the surveillance of merchants is very serious, but at this time, it is not as convenient as the identity of a doctor.

"Langzhong? Hmph, just pay ten cents. Seeing this, the doorman snorted and directly opened Qiu Shaohu's small bag. In his opinion, there are ten texts in this, and it seems that this wild man who walks the rivers and lakes still knows how to do Taoism, and knows that the extra is filial piety to him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the package was opened, there was not a penny in it, only a few black pills.

When the doorman was furious, he wanted to call someone to take Qiu Shaohu down.

"Don't worry, sir, this is what saved your life." Qiu Shaohu took a moment to recuperate, and said slowly: "I see that your eyes are red and your hall is dark, it is estimated that you are seriously ill, if you don't heal ......."

"Humph! The trick of selling strong pills to cheat money, dare to deceive your grandfather! Lao Tzu, I ......" the doorman was talking energetically, suddenly his eyes trembled, only to feel that the abdominal pain was unbearable, as if there were thousands of sharp knives hot and then rolling in his stomach, the pain made him break out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't shout.

"Oh, God...... Divine healer save me......" the doorman snorted.

"Do you know why you're sick?" Looking at the doorman who shrunk into a ball of pain, Qiu Shaohu said: "It's because I usually do too much power, and my qi and blood are too strong, and they flow indiscriminately throughout the body, so that the vitality is weakened." If you want to be cured, it's not difficult, take my medicine, and then from now on, you must not scold or get angry at will, otherwise as long as you do it once, your efforts will be wasted, and your life will be ...... at that time."

"Oops, I listen, I listen! The villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he collided with the miracle doctor, so I'll do it! The doorman knelt on the ground and kowtowed, as he quickly took a pill from the package and struggled to throw it into his mouth.

Qiu Shaohu nodded, and then entered the city gate directly.

It is also miraculous to say, when a medicine is put into the stomach, the pain disappears immediately. The doorman was a little better, and immediately picked up the package and cherished it in his hand.

"Boss, it's a shift change, huh?" The person who came to hand over the post saw him and said in surprise: "Boss, you ...... What are you doing with leaves? ”

"Leaves?" The doorman was startled, and looked down to see that what he was holding in his hand was not a pile of leaves, how could there be a pill.

"This is the miracle medicine!" The doorman only hesitated for a moment, and then said firmly: "I am seriously ill, and I can only be cured by taking these medicinal decoctions and water!" ”

I didn't suspect that I had been deceived.

……

"It's still the same, it hasn't changed at all."

Qiu Shaohu was strolling through Kangjing at this time, looking at the city he was already familiar with.

The walls are majestic, like a wall of clouds, merging with the sky in the dark night, revealing a silent majesty. "Distant mountains and clouds, lonely cities are absolutely blue." A Kangjing city lies across the mountains and rivers and plains, cutting off the direction of the north and south water systems, and the evaluation of the poets of the previous generation is not exaggerated.

The city is brightly lit, and even at night, the noise is endless, and the prosperity is not inferior to that of the tide gate. Taller lanterns stand on the side of the road, and the connecting machine is constantly filled with lamp oil, and the brilliant lights are more eager than the tide gate.

Rivers pass on both sides of the road, bridges cross up and down, crisscrossing each other, and there are many bridge decks that are flat and wide, not losing the main street avenue at all, countless hawkers and people stop here, coming and going, bustling and lively. The bridges are adjacent to each other and overlap each other, and the entire Kangjing City seems to be divided into several layers, intertwined with each other, and the bottom is a lake, turning into a three-dimensional city on the water.

And here, Qiu Shaohu also saw groups of porters anxiously waiting behind the door of the big family, waiting for the master's family to reward them; The emaciated porter lay weakly on the corner of the street and was unattended, beside him a large package that could no longer be carried, and in it was not known which family to send food; If there is a big cart, there is no need for people to carry these heavy goods on their shoulders, but Qiu Shaohu also happened to see that some people were driving that kind of cart and were transporting a large amount of ice outside the city. So much ice, which can only be supplied from the royal family, is equivalent to requisitioning all the vehicles.

Obviously, Qiu Shaohu's "nothing has changed" does not only refer to the appearance of this city.

"Hey, this guest officer, do you want barbecue?" On a stall next to it, a big man was holding a stove, roasting large pieces of meat, full of aroma, "Look at your teenage age, why are you sad, come and eat some meat, today is March 15th, it is the full moon." Isn't it nice for young people to eat meat and admire the moon? ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of fragrant meat and put it in front of Qiu Shaohu.

"Forget it." Qiu Shaohu refused the other party's kindness, the barbecue was smeared with too many spices, especially the smell of pepper, which was quite pungent and inconsistent with Qiu Shaohu's eating habits.

There is a lot of pepper overseas, and small countries in Huijiao and other places also send more such specialties every time they pay tribute, and they are piled up in the treasury for a while, and even to the extent that they are used to pay silver to the courtiers, so peppercorns are also commonly used everywhere in the capital for seasoning, but this is not good news for Qiu Shaohu.

"The moon has risen!" In all directions, pedestrians suddenly looked at the sky, amazed. Some dignitaries and dignitaries couldn't help but ask the servants to stop the sedan chair at this time, and walked out in gorgeous and noble clothes to watch the sky together.

The full moon rises, of course, does not mean that the moon only appears at this time, but that the walls of the capital are too tall, and only at this time can the moon rise above the walls and enter the field of vision of everyone in the city.

Qiu Shaohu also looked at it together, and the moment his eyes touched the moonlight, his eyes immediately went into a trance, as if his head had been hit by a shock, and he was stinging. The eyes are dark, but the sensation is not transmitted by sight, but by hearing.

Suddenly far and near, in his ears, Qiu Shaohu heard bursts of voices, such as thousands of monks singing, the scriptures ups and downs, around the beam for three days without stopping. But the secret language is not fascinating, but like a hook, it always tightens people's nerves, and with a little force, it will be completely broken.

Qiu Shaohu only felt dizzy for a while, and after a while, he slowly woke up. But nothing seemed to happen. The other people next to him continued to admire the moon and talk. I looked at the full moon again, and I didn't feel it before.

"Strange?" Qiu Shaohu glanced at the moonlight a few times, puzzled by what had happened to him just now.

"Kill someone, save someone!"

In the corner of the street, there was a sudden scream, and a person shouted in panic while running, "The moon disciple has appeared, save people!" ”

"Moon Disciple?"

"Moon Disciple! Is it actually true? ”

"How did you end up here!"

The panic spread immediately, and everyone seemed to have heard of it.

Qiu Shaohu turned his head and saw a middle-aged craftsman wearing coarse clothes, fleeing in horror. Behind him, another man with a hammer was in a frenzied pursuit of him.

The incident happened suddenly, and there were no officials on all sides, so everyone was afraid that they would not be able to avoid it, and where would they rush to stop it.

The man seemed to have gone mad, completely desperate to chase after him, and frantically slammed the hammer at the middle-aged craftsman.

The middle-aged craftsman saw that he was about to die on the spot, but he only felt that a flower appeared in front of him, and a young man appeared in front of him, and he kicked the man who was chasing him to the ground at once, and the hammer flew far away.

The man struggled to get up, but Qiu Shaohu reflexively stepped on his body again, making him unable to move.

"Thank you...... Thank you......" Behind the two, a woman who was out of breath ran and seemed to have been chasing them, "Thank you, subduing him ......"

"Sister-in-law, it's okay," the middle-aged craftsman said to Qiu Shaohu, "Youlao, this little brother, help me send him to my house." ”

"You still protect him, know him? What the hell is going on? Qiu Shaohu was puzzled.

"Little brother, you don't know, he ...... This is the evil art of the moon disciples. The middle-aged craftsman wiped his sweat and explained: "Since some time ago, for some reason, every time the moon is full, there will always be a group of people who will suddenly go crazy and lose their minds. ”

"He had a nervous breakdown since the other day, and he thought it was fine, but he didn't expect ......" The woman seemed to be the wife of the mad man, and she couldn't stop crying.

"That's exactly what happened." Qiu Shaohu frowned, it was not his own delusion, it was true that something strange related to the moon happened.

……

"Elder Lianmo, I wonder what happened when you summoned us today?"

On the island of forgetting, in the conference hall, Meng Chen took a group of juniors and disciples to salute the petite woman on the seat, but he was a little puzzled.

I just returned to the island not long ago because of the spiritual truth, and now I ......

"Outside the island, there is some turmoil, it seems that something is happening, you go and take a look. Remember, if something happens, don't do anything just yet, remember to tell me immediately. "Mercy Mo drank tea while taking a good time.

Meng Chen and the others immediately realized the seriousness of it, and Lianmo told them not to act rashly, obviously thinking that their strength was not enough to deal with it. But at this time, Master Wanyin on the island could not go out of retreat, and only Lianmo was in charge, which meant that she couldn't leave easily, so she would let herself wait to see the situation first.

Everyone received the order, did not dare to delay at the moment, and left immediately.

"When the moon is full, does the turbulence of vitality appear again?"

There was only one person left, and she couldn't help but talk to herself.
