France ceded several pieces of territory, and the HRE coalition retreated, leaving a garrison of troops.

Other small countries were either annexed or divided into several pieces.

It's not that they don't want to occupy the whole country, it's too difficult, plus there is a big enemy in the east, the Ottomans, if the strength is consumed too much, it is easy to cause the whole collapse, and swallowing so much territory is already their limit.

The current situation of the Shenluo is similar to that of the Qin Dynasty in Shenzhou, many places have been changed to counties for the first time, and many nobles and their descendants are still in the territory, although they have been suppressed temporarily, once they are relaxed, these nobles will immediately fight back.

There is only one word to deal with them: "boil", stay up until they die, and stay up until they have cultivated a large number of officials to replace their ecological niche.

To deal with those who have prestige, the only way to deal with them is to adopt the parallel system of counties and states, and then gradually reduce the feudal domain.

In addition to the army, there are also Ai Xiru and a group of White Emperor disciples, both foreigners and Chinese.

People walked on the streets of Paris, sewage flowed, and the roads were lined with feces and urine, and men wore high heels to prevent stepping on feces and urine.

"Tsk, what a bunch of barbarians, is this the most prosperous capital of Europa?" Canaan, a member of Esiru's people, sarcastically said that it was not as good as Venice.

In fact, Venice was similar before, and later Aisiru and the Chinese came to improve it.

Canaan is a little to blame them, the water supply and sewage here are actually not bad, but no one has cleaned them because of years of war and poverty.

On both sides of the street, there were still many people staring at them with resentment, some of them still had traces of syphilis and measles, but fortunately they did not see smallpox, otherwise more people might have died in the future.

"Hehe, it seems that the people still don't trust us enough." Asiru laughed.

But that's okay too.

According to the old practice, food is distributed first and then free treatment for diseases, especially infectious diseases.

More importantly, syphilis, the disciples of the White Emperor Sect, who have the ability to treat syphilis, will be welcomed by all classes of Europa.

The original church, this place was temporarily converted into a hospital.

"O Lord!! You are the real messengers, for we were once deceived by the devil! ”

An old nobleman with all his hair and teeth gone, after feeling that his body was devastated by syphilis, immediately bowed down to everyone.

Tell the conspiracies of some people before.

"Haha, the truth will never fade because of someone else's smear, let them say it."

Soon, the reputation of the White Emperor Sect was successfully spread, and the disciples of the White Emperor Sect, who had the ability to treat smallpox, measles, syphilis, and plague, were regarded as gods descending to earth, if they did not have divine power, how could they have the means to turn death into life.

Before the conspiracy of the old church could be carried out, it was defeated, and the people left them behind, and the White Emperor Church became orthodox.

For them, they worship the same God, but with different names and different churches.

At the French royal palace, Louis XIV hosted a banquet for Esijous and others.

At the banquet, looking at the people of Ai Xiru who were holding chopsticks, the king and other nobles were a little curious.

"What is this?"

"The chopsticks of Shenzhou, the real nobles never use knives themselves."

The servant helped him cut it, and Asiru held the food with chopsticks.

"Elegant, so elegant, I'll get a pair of chopsticks when I go back."

Thinking about it this way, Louie also felt that it was not very elegant to hold knives and forks, and a group of people were like murders, slaughtering and cutting a piece of meat, like a rude butcher, how could there be the elegance of chewing slowly with chopsticks.

Customs such as drinking hot water and using chopsticks began to spread among the nobility of Western Europe.

On this day, Ai Xiru suddenly called Wang Qi on a whim and said, "I'm going to go back to Shenzhou and want to go and see." ”

"Why?" Wang Qi was puzzled, Ai Xiru was so old that he was at risk of death at any time.

"I'm counting my life, and I want to return to my roots."

There is an old saying in Huaxia that entering China is Huaxia, and the best years of his life are in Huaxia, and he has already formed a sense of belonging to that place after receiving the influence of Chinese culture.

I heard that Shenzhou has developed well in recent years, and he also wants to go back and have a look.

"Okay, go back and bring me a message." Wang Qi brought his family over, and he still wants to continue to develop here, his dedication is greater than his homesickness.

The news of Asiru's trip to Shenzhou spread throughout Europa, and some monarchs who were more curious about Shenzhou also sent their princes or envoys to France, Spain, Poland, Denmark, etc., either sending princes or other great nobles.

Everyone wants to know about Shenzhou, the mastermind behind the revival of the Roman Empire, and even more so wants to see what the celestial master with mysterious power is like.

Of course, Esiru would not take them for free, but took the opportunity to ask for many royal treasures, especially books on the occult, as long as they were old enough, the more numerous the better, regardless of the genre, all of them were in his pocket.

These things are real and fake, and Asiru can't tell them, so he can only bring them all.

Soon, the ship departed and headed for Shenzhou.

This is the second time Asiru has returned to China, and most likely the last.

The ship was bumpy, and Ai Xiru's body was a little unbearable, but he usually taught Chinese on the ship.

Gradually, Ai Siru was a little tired, and sometimes had to give up the work at hand, and as soon as he was free, he remembered the past.

At that time, the Emperor of Hanchang was still a local warlord, the Heavenly Master had just traveled down the mountain, the Ming Dynasty was still there, and he was a small priest who traveled to the Central Plains.

At that time, I remember that on the way to Changsha, I saw the Heavenly Master exert his magical powers for the first time.

The gears of fate, from that moment on, began to turn, and the history of Europa began to change.

Thinking of the past, Ai Xiru was in good spirits, and the whole person seemed to be glowing, and on the way, he kept telling everyone about the history and culture of China, as well as their amazing resilience and knowledge.

It is a land of gods, a place where countless miracles are born.

Even if you fall asleep occasionally, you will wake up again and create new brilliance.

A remark that made the nobles fascinated.

Soon, the continent appeared ahead.

"This is Yuezhou, we are in Yuezhou!"

As the ship approached, everyone was shocked to see the sight on the shore.

"This ...... The Holland is no more than a coachman at sea. ”

Huge harbor, so many ships...... Hundreds of millions of goods are handled, including cargo ships from Dongying, raw materials from Qiongdao, spices from Nanyang countries, merchant ships from all over the world, large and small, large and small, large and small, and large and orderly.

The ship docked, and the coolies on the shore were also ruddy and full, except for the fact that their skin was a little darker, they were in a much better state than the bottom people in Europa, and their height was also tall.

Factories spewing black smoke can be seen everywhere on the shore.

"What is this?" The Prince of France asked.

Officials in Canton took them on a tour of the steam factory, and they were stunned and horrified as they watched the huge number of steel castings and textiles rush out at an incredible speed.

"The production capacity of this factory is enough to eat the demand of the entire HRE, and thousands of factories in Jiangnan, even if there is no steaming, can crush the industry of Europa." Officials in Guangdong said with a smile.

I thought that Europa was not much worse than this side, but it turned out to be such a crushing lead.

The nobles couldn't help but reflect, what happened to Europa? It must be a problem of the system.

Esiru did not stop, but set off directly.

The railway from Guangdong to Zhongjing has not yet been fully completed, so it is a train for some distance and then departing from the waterway.

Zhongjing is the thoroughfare of nine provinces, and it is no more than two provinces separated from any one province.

On the way, they got off the bus and went to Changsha, and the rest of the people continued to set off for Zhongjing, and when they arrived in Changsha, they saw their old friend Li Jianxing, who is now also gray-haired.

"Haha, Lao Ai, you're still alive." Seeing Ai Xiru, Li saw that his eyes were red, and he still joked.

"Are you okay?" Esiru shook his old friend's hand.

"Very good, I'll be the east tonight, and I'll invite you to dinner."

I haven't seen each other for many years, and the two are also drunk, and at their age, if they see each other less once, they may not have a chance to see each other again next time.

The servants helped them into the room to rest.

The next day, Li saw that he had a splitting headache and came to Asiru's room.

"This old man ......"

Pushing open the door and seeing his old friend silently, as if sleeping peacefully, Li Jianxing smiled helplessly: "This old man went before me." ”

The bright stars of the times faded one after another.

The news of Ai Xiru's death was transmitted by train to Chang'an, and then to Zhongnan Mountain.

The bell rang at Jungnan Mountain, bringing the news.

……

Sycamore Cave Heaven.

The vegetation is luxuriant, and the real fire fruit, water reishi, and ginseng grow through the earth's qi, and the fruits are filled with transparent butterflies, and between the flapping of the wings of these butterflies, a little fluorescence can be seen.

There are about six of them, this kind of butterfly is very expensive, Tianluo spent a lot of resources to find six, this butterfly can be used as medicine to improve physical defects.

In the mansion, Xu Xuan had a bunch of resources and classics from Europa in front of him.

Looking at the "static word" in the center of the main hall, I don't know what to think in my heart.

News of Esiru's death has been received.

Xu Xuan didn't say much, he really regretted in his heart that he couldn't send them on their last journey.

Death is always unexpected, and unconsciously dying in a daze is not a kind of happiness.

Those who know the date of their death are often painfully terminally ill.

As your cultivation increases, time becomes faster and faster.

There will be more and more such things, why in the ancient myths of the mirror realm, monks often have to avoid the world, in order to be less contaminated with cause and effect.

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.

Watching the former lovers, friends, and colleagues pass away one by one, one disappears into time, how can I not be touched in my heart, and the fear of death.

As time goes by, life spans decrease, and this fear comes to the heart, devouring people themselves, until they destroy a person and break their hearts.

However, Xu Xuan is different from the people in the mirror realm, but there is no fear of death in his heart, and some only have the perception of death.

Maybe the world here is changing too slowly, and there is no need to fight for your own survival every day, and your mind is tense; In a more relaxed environment, I can calm down and think about life.

Feeling the red dust and cultivating the state of mind has never been the preserve of top masters, but the state that monks must maintain at every stage, but the low-level monks in the mirror realm do not have that stable atmosphere.

"It's a good end."

The wine was poured on the ground, and a glass of turbid wine was toasted to the deceased.

The Yangtze River flows forever, and the mountains and rivers have no reason.
