Li Xiuping didn't know where to turn out a book, and asked Chu Yan to lead Yang Erni to read it, if there was a word he didn't know, he could ask him or Qingming Layman, and he would find a place to sit down, close his eyes, and listen to the sound of the two little girls reading aloud, Chu Yan again, Yang Erni again.

Every time I stop after that, it's almost like that; And when Li Xiuping passed by some bookstalls, he would also buy some books, and when the two little girls finished reading, he would take out another book and let them continue reading.

At the beginning, Yang Erni could only read with Chu Yan, and Chu Yan would also encounter a lot of words she didn't know, and later, it was difficult for Chu Yan to encounter words she didn't know, and Yang Erni could basically recognize them, so the two read them almost at the same time.

Of course, Li Xiuping hadn't read these books, so when the two little girls read them, he listened, and the three of them studied together and made progress together.

At this moment, the cold winter has passed, the weather is getting warmer, and the further south you go, the stronger the breath of spring becomes, and the group finally arrived at Tianchan Temple and left the late autumn country.

Along the way, he walked quite steadily, in addition to the daily rush, it was the practice and reading of the two little girls, and during this time, Li Xiuping also absorbed and transformed all the demonic qi in his body, as he expected before, after transforming all the demonic qi, his cultivation entered the nineteenth layer of the foundation.

And along the way, Chu Yan and Yang Erni's refining body is almost no problem, but Li Xiuping did not teach the two of them the qi refining method, but let them continue to work on their physique, when will this process be, Li Xiuping did not give any clear statement.

Evergreen City is the only way to Tianchan Temple, many pilgrims who come to visit will stay in Evergreen City, now it is just like spring, it is the beginning of the year, the world hopes to have a good vision in the coming year, and it is also the most lively time in Evergreen City.

After Li Xiuping and others entered the city, the streets were full of all kinds of pilgrims, including rich and noble families, dignitaries, poor people, peddlers and pawns, which truly showed the equality of all beings in Buddhism, and those who came did not refuse.

Almost all of what you see and hear along the way are about Tianchan Temple, and most of them are discussing how the sign of Tianchan Temple works, and it is really responsive......

Li Xiuping saw a bookstall on the side of the street and walked up. Picked up a copy and flipped through it, almost all of them were Confucian classics and famous sayings of sages.

Li Xiuping asked casually: "How can this book be sold?" ”

The book seller hurriedly smiled and said, "Five cents for a book, if the son wants more, there will be a discount." ”

Li Xiuping nodded, and while putting together the books he needed, he said: "Each sect has sage classics, but only the Confucian classics are truly readable by everyone. ”

The Qingying monk also nodded: "It is precisely because everyone can read it, so it seems to be worthless, so that no one cares about it here." Confucianism has been suppressed over the years, which actually has a lot to do with this. Something, once it is rotten on the street, it is worthless, even if it is a saint's classic, it can't escape. ”

Li Xiuping said with a smile: "But there will always be people who buy it, and there will always be people who will read it." Therefore, although Confucianism has been suppressed, in this world, the most people are still scholars, poor scholars of literature, and rich scholars of martial arts. ”

At this time, he had already put away all the books he needed, then took out some scattered silver, handed it to the book seller, and said: "There is Brother Lao, and there is no need to look for the rest, just thank the eldest brother for the sages who left these truths." ”

After saying that, he turned around and continued walking.

Because it was getting late, Li Xiuping planned to rest in the city for one night now, and go to Tianchan Temple tomorrow morning, so that he could join those pilgrims and have a good time.

Li Xiuping soon found that in a crowded place, it is really not easy to find a place to live, and the money required for food, clothing, housing and transportation is also extremely expensive.

I finally found a place to live, but I had to go a long way to eat, because this inn only provides accommodation, not food.

The point is that it is already late at this time, and if you go elsewhere to find food, the store may not be willing to earn this money.

But basically I haven't eaten a good meal along the way, I don't care, I can't let other people suffer this sin, so after settling down, Li Xiuping still led everyone out of the post house, looking for a place to eat.

After leaving the post house, go west and walk two streets, but there is a restaurant that has not yet closed, the lights are bright, and you can hear the voices of the drinkers talking in the distance, Li Xiuping took everyone into this restaurant.

After entering the restaurant, people have begun to leave one after another, so the entire restaurant hall seems a little empty, but there are still many people on the second floor talking loudly.

A little guy ran up with a smile on his face and asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat for a few guest officers, the small shop has excellent wine and food, there are warm and mellow wines from the south, there are also high-quality spirits from the north to keep out the cold, and there are two famous chefs from the north and south, which can definitely meet any needs of the guest officers." ”

Li Xiuping asked Chu Yan to pull Yang Erni to order food, and they found a place to sit on the first floor.

At this time, there were also people downstairs one after another, and after taking a look at Li Xiuping and others, they left the restaurant, their faces were flushed, they couldn't see the road clearly when they walked, swaying from side to side, and stumbling.

By the time the food was served, the entire Evergreen City had become extremely quiet, with only one or two dog barking sounds from time to time, and the sound of the evening breeze blowing through the windows.

There are still guests on the second floor, but the voice is much quieter, and it is no longer real to hear downstairs.

At this time, almost all the guests in the restaurant walk out of the restaurant, and it is impossible for anyone to enter the restaurant, because even the little people in the restaurant are already leaning on the counter and falling asleep. But someone really walked in from the outside, and he was still a monk.

It's not strange to see a monk at the foot of Tianchanji Mountain, but it's strange to see a monk at such a late hour, and it's in this kind of place.

Therefore, Li Xiuping felt a little curious, and couldn't help but glance at the monk who entered the restaurant.

This monk is a bit cultivated, around the Jindan period, wearing a yellow monk's robe, with a pair of mangshoe, his body is thin, but he gives people a feeling of wealth and compelling, to be precise, he exudes the smell of money.

Li Xiuping has not seen many monks, but in fact, it is not a few, and it is really the first time he has seen such a monk.

After the monk entered the restaurant, he glanced at Li Xiuping and others at random, and then walked towards the second floor.

Huo Ling Zhenren retracted his eyes and said with a smile: "This day the Zen Temple is a little interesting, and the disciples in the door actually went to the restaurant late at night. ”

Li Xiuping was thoughtful and did not speak.

The Qing Ming monk asked, "What do you think?" ”

Li Xiuping said casually: "It should be that the people of Puyun Mountain colluded with some forces under the mountain to provide convenience for these pilgrims and make profits from them, which is not an unusual thing. ”

The Qingming monk nodded and said, "There are indeed a lot of such things in other temples, but the occurrence of such a thing in Tianchan Temple is indeed a little unbelievable."

Li Xiuping was stunned.

Qingming monk continued: "Tianchan Temple has always had strict precepts, and it is not allowed for disciples in the sect to have any dealings with the forces under the mountain, or even with any forces in the cultivation world, which is also the reason why Tianchan Temple is obviously second only to the Seven Holy Lands, but it is not well-known in the cultivation world. I heard that this is the rule set by the patriarch Huici of Tianchan Temple, and all monks of Tianchan Temple will face extremely severe punishment if they are worried about violating it. ”

Li Xiuping glanced at the second floor, but unfortunately with his current situation, he couldn't perceive the specific situation above, let alone hear what the monk said to whom.

Huo Ling Zhenren smiled and said: "This matter has nothing to do with us anyway, the so-called equality of all beings, in fact, that is to say, it may really be equal, how can people who have no power and no money compete with those who are rich and powerful?" There are many such things, not to mention this little incense. ”

Li Xiuping nodded, but said: "If you can't be equal in the Holy Land, it will be even more impossible to be equal elsewhere." ”

The Fire Spirit True Man couldn't help frowning and asked, "Does Childe want to interfere?" ”

He was really a little worried, the matter of Puyun Mountain last time was already a big trouble, if he interfered in the affairs of Tianchan Temple again, the trouble would only be greater, after all, ten Puyun Mountains were not as good as one Tianchan Temple.

It seemed that he knew the worries of the fire spirit real person, Li Xiuping said with a smile: "This is just a trivial matter, there won't be any big trouble, whether you want to interfere or not, you still have to look at the specific situation, if this person is really secretly carrying Tianchan Temple for personal gain, let's just remind Tianchan Temple when the time comes, Tianchan Temple will deal with it after the fact, we don't need to do anything, and it is unlikely to offend Tianchan Temple." ”

The Fire Spirit True Man nodded, and he was really relieved.

Li Xiuping said: "You guys eat, I'll go up and have a look." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and glanced at the little guy, who was still leaning on the counter and was drowsy.

Li Xiuping walked up the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor is completely different from the first floor, it is simply a day and a place, just the decoration, it is not the first floor can be compared, it can be called splendid.

After going up to the second floor, Li Xiuping glanced left and right, and found that the location of the second floor was different from the first floor, there were partitions between the seats, and there were guests on these tables.

Li Xiuping quickly found the monk who had gone upstairs earlier, but the other party obviously didn't notice him, so Li Xiuping walked towards the next table to the table, and before he got closer, he heard the monk say, "This time the price has to be increased." ”

Someone asked, "Why is this the same number in previous years?" ”

The monk said: "This time is different, I heard the elders in the door say, that Li Xiuping will come to Tianchan Temple recently, that is a nosy person, if this matter is installed by him, I am afraid that it will not be hidden, the little monk is helping you with his future life, you take more money out, it's not too much." ”

Li Xiuping couldn't help frowning, feeling that this matter was not just as simple as incense......
