Chapter Eighty-Eight: White Horse Temple
Su Jing shook his head again, when he first met the ugly Taoist Sha Jingren, he made up his mind that he would not let himself be in danger in the future. The relationship between the Hou Mansion and the Qingyang Dao Palace is inevitably too tense.
Even if the people of Qingyang Dao Palace didn't dare to kill people in Yujing City, it was possible to find someone to humiliate themselves.
If you go out of the river and have fun, your nose and face are swollen and swollen by someone who is smoked, and it is spread that you will be laughed at when you enter the feather forest.
"Or ...... Uncle is idle today and is not on duty, so how about calling him out with him?" Su Jian asked.
Su Jing remembered Xiaoyaohou's words to warn him, but he still shook his head and said to Su Jian: "You say first, where are we going?"
"Today is December 18, the most lively time in the west of the city. Families from all over the country have almost sent people to Yujing City to congratulate the emperor on his birthday before this. I don't know how many scattered cultivators will come to the White Horse Temple, peddling rare treasures. ”
When Su Jing heard this, he felt that the place he was going to was mixed. However, he was tempted, and carefully searched his memory, and there were really a lot of good things about the annual market of the White Horse Temple.
At this time, most of the scattered cultivation in Yujing City is active in the East China Sea, and at the end of the year, there are a lot of treasures obtained.
Among the casual cultivators, there are only a handful of people who can refine the pills by hand, and the number of casual cultivators is so huge that even if half of them can refine the pills, it is not enough. To be able to come to the Yujing City for casual cultivation, at least at the realm of the innate stage, they don't care about erysipelas. These lifelong dreams of casual cultivation are just the achievement of Jindan.
Without comprehensive and systematic knowledge of qi refining, if you want to become an immortal, it is wishful thinking.
Another purpose of these loose cultivation is to be favored by the major families and absorbed into the family, so that once they have made meritorious contributions, they will be able to obtain a more perfect qi refining formula, and the hope of achieving the golden pill will be greater.
The White Horse Temple was originally built by Buddhism, but after the Daomen occupied Shenzhou, the Buddhist disciples of the entire Shenzhou were driven away. They are luckier than the hundred families, but they are also displaced, and the 10,000-year-old ancient temple of the White Horse Temple has been transformed into a big market by the Jiang royal family.
A hundred years of fireworks in the world have wiped out the Buddha light of the White Horse Temple. This is more consuming than directly dismantling the Buddha's luck.
The huge White Horse Temple is now a freak of the Qinglou Theater Square Market, and the royal family guarding the White Horse Temple has been able to extract something like the Buddha light from the Buddha statue every day.
It is easier to destroy than to build, 10,000 years of savings, 100 years of depletion.
"Okay, let's go to the White Horse Temple. But I don't have any money on me......"
"Go to Mr. Big, every year we have a certain amount that can be withdrawn. "Su Jian is a veteran, although Su Jing is the son of the world, but it turns out that the unlucky guy has no interest in recruiting loose cultivators, or rather, he has died of a motivated heart.
In his memory, Su Jing could hardly find any news about the White Horse Temple.
"I'll go and call Su Mu, and Su Xue, what about the eldest brother?" Su Jing thought to himself, since everyone has a certain amount of withdrawal, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to recruit some casual cultivators.
"Big brother is very busy, but he doesn't have time to hang out. Su Jian smiled: "Fifth sister, if she doesn't want to go, forget it." The fourth sister went out early this morning, and it is estimated that she has already gone. ”
"Fifth sister, let's go, go to the White Horse Temple to have a look, it's good to hire a few people to come back. Su Jing greeted in the courtyard, and Su Mu walked out reluctantly. Su Jian was suddenly surprised, he knew the temper of the fifth sister, and if he made up his mind not to go, no one could persuade him.
The three of them went to the great housekeeper Juyue Mountain together.
The chief housekeeper was not there, and the steward in charge of the treasury directly turned out the account books, seeing that Su Jingzu had not received the quota for more than six years, and said with a smile: "Young master, you have to wait a minute, I will ask someone to divide it." ”
Su Jing nodded and sat in the small hall outside the warehouse. In half an hour, a few servants in armor carried out a dozen large boxes.
"Young Master, Second Young Master, Fifth Miss, this is the amount you can withdraw now. ”
"I have it too?" Su Jian said strangely, "I just got it the day before yesterday." ”
"The lord ordered yesterday that this year's quota has been doubled, and the fourth lady has already received double copies. The steward replied with a smile.
Su Jing stood up and walked to a box. The size of this box is the same as that of the army, and it is four feet long, three feet, and two feet high. This is a small storage compartment, there is no space formation, but the materials are exquisite, absolutely sturdy, and have the attribute of significantly reducing weight.
Open the box, the precise gears turn, and rows of wooden shelves rise, from top to bottom, like terraces. The shelves were filled with thumb-sized porcelain bottles, and the porcelain vases were only cast with a rune, not even the Earth Evil Prohibition. In each porcelain vase, there is an elixir.
This is the elixir used for trading with Sanxiu, and there are thousands of bottles in one box. However, looking at the labels on the shelves, Su Jing found that the value of most pills required more than a dozen bottles to exchange for a Chongyuan Dan.
In the casual cultivation, there is no alchemy at all. Even if it is the Twelve Dao Palaces, the alchemists are all hiding like treasures.
Su Jing originally thought that Chong Yuan Dan was worthless, and after he crossed over, he was treated as poison. Now it seems that the Chongyuan Pill that he can receive every month is an astronomical amount for casual cultivation.
It's no wonder that these disciples of the Su family, at a young age, have built foundations one after another. Out of a thousand scattered cultivators, no more than three people can build a foundation within 100 years old.
It's just that the number of pills that can be used is enough to make the scattered cultivators envious to death.
There are a total of sixteen boxes, Su Jing has thirteen, and the remaining three boxes, Su Mu has two, and Su Jian has one. Su Jing has a lot of boxes, which he has accumulated over the years. Although he is a prince, he will not have too many preferential treatment in this regard. At least it won't be so outrageous by several times.
Su Jing waved his hand and put a mouthful of the box into his bracelet. Su Jian and Su Mu also received the pill and signed their names in the account book. The steward called someone over again and brought Su Jing a Taoist robe.
This is not Xiaoyaohou's idea, but the steward to curry favor with Su Jing. Anyway, Su Jing has the right to receive the Dao robe from the treasury, this Dao robe is a low-grade magic weapon, and it looks ordinary, but it is equipped with an extra belt made of red and gold silk threads, and twelve jade talismans are worn on it, and the value is a little high.
Su Jing patted the butler on the shoulder, and there was no need to say thank you to his subordinates. The steward was already flattered, and his heart rejoiced.
There were already ten pro-soldiers waiting outside the door, and the two leaders were Qi refiners in the foundation building period. Su Jian's little servant couldn't get close to the storeroom, and waited outside the courtyard gate farther away.
There were fifteen men in all, and fifteen horses were prepared, and the steward went all the way to the outermost gate. Su Jing thought about it, took a Chongyuan Pill and threw it to him, and said, "I've rewarded you." ”
The steward smiled, but Su Jian said, "Third brother, you are a big man, but it's not good." ”
"There is nothing to do, and the person who can be assigned to be in charge here must be my father's cronies. The left and right are their own people, and it is not a waste. Su Jing said, flying on the horse, the dragon and snake in the body are really running, and there is no need to penetrate out of the body, the pure black horse has already obeyed, and runs in small steps, as if it is a demon beast that has followed Su Jing for countless years.
Out of the Hou Mansion, Su Jian immediately raised the speed, there is no speed limit in Yujing City, as long as you don't hit people. The White Horse Temple is in the west of the city, and the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion is in the north of the city. If you don't hurry, it will take at least an hour to arrive.
Su Jing sat upright on the horse, the scenery around him kept reversing rapidly, and suddenly thought to himself, this is a freshly dressed angry horse, galloping in Beijing, right?
"Young Master, slow down!" The pro-soldiers behind couldn't help but shout, Su Jing's riding skills were too good, and the horses were the best among all of them, and they had already left the pro-soldiers behind for a distance.
Su Jingha laughed, increased his speed, and rushed forward two streets away, which made the dark horse under his crotch slow down and wait for the soldiers to catch up.
The places where they lived were all aristocratic mansions, and there were no ordinary people on the streets. Otherwise, I don't know if there will be any ** silk in the road who secretly despises it.
Do you think you have money and power and can drive over the speed limit?
When the soldiers caught up, Su Jing no longer galloped with all his might, but just maintained the same speed as everyone. Su Mu saw that Su Jing clearly didn't use any Taoist skills, and ran faster than himself, so he couldn't help but ask, "Third brother, where did you learn riding skills?"
"Master Lin taught. When I entered the Feather Forest, although it was unlikely that I would be able to charge, this riding skill must be learned. Even if the foundation is built, it is impossible to drive the magic weapon, and flying all day long, in that case, you will be tired to death. ”
"Third brother, you can buy a demon beast, even if it is in the feather forest, it is not forbidden to bring your own mount. No matter how good this war horse is, it is not as durable as the demon beast. ”
Su Jing smiled: "It's troublesome." ”
He is telling the truth, Daomen Qi Refiner already has a tradition of riding demon beasts. It's just that demon beasts are different from war horses, and they have to raise them by themselves, Su Jing's mind is all about invention and creation, and he spends time raising a mount like a pet, and Su Jing doesn't have that patience.
Talking and laughing, unconsciously, the towering tower in the White Horse Temple has been seen in the distance.
It is the only building in the temple that has been destroyed, and it was originally a hundred stories high, a miracle among the Buddhist gates. Now there are only thirty-three floors left, and it still stands out from the crowd, but it is only half the shorter than the stargazing tower in the palace.
The archway in front is towering and guarded by soldiers, and the speed limit begins here. Entering the White Horse Temple from the east gate, the number of pedestrians began to increase. Su Jing and the others slowed down the speed of the horses, and the fifteen horses took small steps, with an indescribable rhythm.
"Stand still, don't pass in front!" a group of soldiers in crimson armor rushed out from the side, led by an officer with a bronze beast head on his chest, which was the symbol of the Terracotta Division responsible for arresting the bandits.
In this world, there is no military service, and all the armed forces belong to the army. The military signs are also very complicated, and people who are not from Su Jing's family background may not be able to distinguish them completely.
