After the big ship set sail and the flag given by the Momeng was hung on the bow, the road was really smooth.

Xu Mochen didn't let go of the scenery along the way, although the ship was large, most of the sailing positions were offshore, and occasionally the water demon clan was seen wandering around, without any abnormality.

But looking at the deep sea in the distance, you can see all kinds of water demon clans from time to time, coming to the sea to patrol the sea.

If you think about it carefully, the world belongs to the sphere of influence of the human race, and it is really limited.

With thoughts, coupled with Gu Jinge's injury, the road was a little dull.

Ten days later, the ship finally approached Danzhou in the south.

Danzhou in the south is actually an island, and in terms of the senses of the human race, the area is still not small.

When he was approaching, Xu Mochen saw that near the port, there were dense ships.

The style is not the same, the Daqian style is very recognizable, and the rest are exotic styles.

In this era, because the transmission of information between human races is very slow, the so-called imperial power, in fact, has reached such a remote area, and no one cares.

On the contrary, immortal cultivators should have penetrated very deeply in the local area.

There is also the exchange of foreign countries, the Great Cadres used to follow the policy of closing the country to the outside world, but the whip is beyond the reach of the whip, and here in Danzhou in the south, private trade is very frequent.

"It seems that a new trading port here is imperative." Xu Mochen secretly made a decision.

When they arrived, Tang Derun greeted them, of course, he didn't say that the emperor was there in person.

The capital is far away in the north, and anyone who comes to it is a big official, so the local Taishou Mansion does not dare to slack off.

A dock was emptied early, waiting for Xu Mochen's ship to dock.

After anchoring, the ship board was lowered, and Xu Mochen and his party went ashore one after another.

"Your Excellency," an official stepped forward and saluted, "The lower official is Cheng Renjun, the Taishou of Danzhou in the south, and he has seen your lordship."

Xu Mochen looked at it, this person had a righteous face, Xu was tanned because of his proximity to the south. ap.

This official uniform looks very old in the past, and some places have taken off the pulp, and after sweeping it again, Cheng Renjun is followed by officials of all sizes, and the situation is almost similar.

They are all human races, there are no immortal cultivators, and they look like they don't have a good life.

"Danzhou in the south, I heard that the climate is livable, and the flowers and fruits are abundant," Xu Mochen walked forward, "Farming should be more prosperous."

Cheng Renjun followed behind and replied cautiously: "Lord Hui, I said it was like this.

But Danzhou in the south is actually a big island, with limited water for irrigation, and some special customs, in fact, it is barely self-sufficient."

Xu Mochen remembered, maybe there were layers of exploitation by immortal cultivators: "What about trading with foreign countries."

Cheng Renjun's face was full of embarrassment, he was on the edge, and the imperial court Xu Mochen had launched the matter of the special zone and allowing foreign trade, and he didn't know the news: "My lord, the national policy of the Great Qian, is not allowed to trade with foreign countries.

It's just that this is indeed a border area, and there are many business trips to and from foreign countries.

The local folk customs are not ordinary, and the lower officials are also powerless."

When Xu Mochen heard him say this, he was curious: "Trade is not a bad thing, the imperial court can understand that it has not been decreed recently, Ningzhou has been opened, and there should be a decree to you soon."

Cheng Renjun didn't look happy: "Actually...... These trades are all private acts, and the official uniform has been repeatedly banned, and it is almost impossible to obtain tax revenue from trade or to be controlled by the government."

Xu Mochen stopped: "Why do you say that?"

Cheng Renjun walked in quickly and whispered, "Your Excellency will know when you enter the city in front."

Xu Mochen nodded, and the group continued to move forward.

Looking all the way, there is smoke everywhere, and every few places, there are temples.

This temple, looking at the layout, is not a common style in the Xianxia world or the Buddhist cultivation world, but it is a bit of a shadow of the Netherworld.

"Weird," Shen Zhining was sensitive to this, "Your Majesty, the aura of incense here is very strong.

Even in the capital, there is no such belief in incense."

Xu Mochen also felt it, the air was filled with the smell of incense, and after staying for a long time, even his clothes had a smell.

Entering the city, the buildings here are also okay in scale, and the eaves are pointed, which is a common setting in the south to prevent heavy rainfall.

The road was crowded with people, all clamoring somewhere.

Xu Mochen looked at the group of people on the left side of the road, all wearing red belts, and there were about twenty people carrying a large platform, on which stood a huge puppet.

The puppet looked quite strange, and there was no resemblance to the gods of Daqian folk beliefs, revealing a little weirdness.

The man carrying it, stamping his feet as he marched, shouted, "Fire God Fire God!"

On the right side of the road is a group of people wearing purple belts.

There were also more than twenty people, carrying another large platform, on which stood a colorful doll.

It was shouted over there, "Mountain God, Mountain God, Mountain God".

Two teams of people met in the middle of the road, and neither let anyone.

A few people who fought in the front were pushing and kneading, but they didn't officially fight.

Xu Mochen was about to ask, when a burst of gongs, drums and firecrackers rang out again, and on the other side of the road, a new team of people came.

This time, it was a female doll, but her appearance was also extremely weird.

The three parties intersected together, and the noise was not lively.

As a result, the road is basically blocked.

The people on both sides also stood at the door of the house, or opened the window, smiling and watching, and from time to time they could echo and coax.

Xu Mochen rubbed his eyebrows: "Master Cheng, what is this doing."

Cheng Renjun reported: "This is a local custom in Danzhou in the south, called "Douxian", which will be held on the fifteenth day of every month, and it will be lively for several days."

Xu Mochen felt strange: "Is it the same when farming is busy?"

"Yes, my lord," Cheng Renjun nodded, "This is the custom that Xia Guan just said."

I see, Xu Mochen understood.

The people here are all faith fanatics.

Regardless of wind and rain, this douxian is indispensable.

For a long time, no one had the heart to do agriculture, business, and so on.

Daqian has always been relatively tolerant of religion.

Originally, it was a small country in the north, and in addition to the big Qian, there were many mixed races.

Now that the world has been unified, there are more foreign races, and the beliefs and religions in various regions are also different, Xu Mochen did not force reunification.

But in general, the prevalent religion in Daqian originated from the Xianxia world and the Buddhist cultivation world.

Compare the blue star with Taoism and Buddhism.

Now Danzhou in the south should belong to a special religious belief.

It is no wonder that the smell of incense here is strong and the power of faith is very strong.

The road ahead was blocked, and a group of people had to take a detour, but the rest of the place was similar.

It took a lot of time, and finally arrived at the Taishou Mansion, and the time was already dusk.

Xu Mochen paid a general attention to it, and the number of "immortals" he had seen along the way was nearly a hundred.

This is still a city, thinking of the entire southern Danzhou, I don't know how many immortals.
