Chapter 386: Poetry and Friendship
The Dajin Dynasty has a vast area, beautiful scenery, and many historical sites and scenic spots.
Although Zhang Yifan is ready to return to Chu State, he finally came to the Great Jin Dynasty, so he naturally will not go back so eagerly, obviously he has to travel a lot to come here in vain.
In the process of going south, Zhang Yifan sometimes turned into a ranger and experienced the customs of the Great Jin Dynasty.
From time to time, he reverted to his identity as an immortal cultivator, going in and out of various markets to buy some spiritual materials and elixirs he needed, and at the same time selling some treasures that he didn't need.
However, in order to keep a low profile, Zhang Yifan does not ship much, but every time he sells a little, the level is not too high, and he himself knows the art of disguise, and basically no one notices it, so he has been safe.
For several months, Zhang Yifan traveled unhurriedly and bought a lot of classics of the Great Jin, combined with the information given by Qi Yun, he could be regarded as having some understanding of the Great Jin.
The Great Jin Dynasty is very different from the Chu State, the people here are more casual, greedy for pleasure, and not as hard as the civilians of the Chu State, so the folk customs of the entire Great Jin Dynasty are generally full of glamour sounds, not as strong as the Chu State.
Zhang Yifan also experienced some of this point in the ordinary immortal cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Although the method of cultivating immortals in the Great Jin Dynasty is more subtle than that of the Chu State, and the cultivation material is rich, most of the monks are relatively easy to cultivate, and the cultivation is generally relatively high, but the combat toughness of the immortal cultivators of the Great Jin Dynasty is not as good as that of the monks of the Chu State.
This is also related to this atmosphere in the Great Jin.
However, the advantage of this atmosphere is that the commerce and trade of the Great Jin Dynasty are extremely developed, whether it is in the mortal world or in the immortal cultivation world, all kinds of materials are very rich, which makes Zhang Yifan sigh.
In the market of a small immortal cultivator family, Zhang Yifan could find some spiritual materials needed by Jindan stage monks. This was unimaginable in the Chu State, even in a Dafang city like Jiangyue Island, it was very rare for him to find some spiritual materials of Jindan stage monks.
Moreover, the spirit stone resources of the Great Jin Dynasty seem to be extraordinarily rich, so the price of some treasures is also several percent higher than that of the Chu State. Therefore, the spirit stones obtained by Zhang Yifan from selling excess treasures have reached the level of tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones, but he has never had so many spirit stones.
Zhang Yifan traveled to the central region of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the folk customs here are a little different from those in the north.
Perhaps because of the Confucian power, there are many private schools in the central part of the Great Jin Dynasty, and there are many academies, and the reading atmosphere is strong, and scholars can be seen everywhere.
This kind of scene made Zhang Yifan a little surprised, he rarely saw such a scene.
Moreover, most of the monks here practice Confucianism and Taoism, and cultivate the spirit of Haoran, which is called Confucianism. Confucianism is a new form of cultivation, and the important evidence for advancement is whether the monk's cultivation of Haoran Qi is strong, and even some cultivation thresholds must be cultivated to a certain extent.
Regarding Confucianism, Zhang Yifan knows very little, and it is rare in Chu State, at least he has never seen it.
For this reason, Zhang Yifan curiously talked with some loose cultivators in some markets in the central part of the Great Jin Dynasty to understand the characteristics of Confucian cultivation, and even found an opportunity to learn a thing or two.
After some time, Zhang Yifan also had a general understanding of Confucianism.
In the final analysis, Confucianism is similar to Buddhism, except that one reads the books of sages and the other reads Buddhist scriptures, but the form of practice is similar.
Confucianism pays attention to the cultivation of the soul and does not pay much attention to the physical body, and the spirit of a majestic body is the foundation of all the exercises of Confucianism. The stronger the aura of Haoran, the easier it is to practice Confucian exercises, and the more difficult it is to do vice versa.
Confucianism has no special advantages over other Taos, demons, Buddhas, etc., but it is rarely disturbed by demons, and the aura of Haoran is very useful in both attack and defense, and there are no obvious shortcomings.
There is also the practice of Confucianism and Taoism, which pays attention to "establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a life for the people, continuing to learn for the saints, and opening peace for all generations", and does not shy away from ordinary people, but also actively enters the WTO to teach the world, so there are basically monks in a private school or academy in Dajin.
Zhang Yifan admires Confucianism very much, and it must be known that the deeper the involvement with the mortal world, the heavier the cause and effect, and the more difficult it is to advance later.
However, Confucianism is not afraid of hardships and insists on benefiting the world, which is also the main reason why the people of the Great Jin Dynasty are relatively loose and free.
As the so-called blessing and misfortune depend on each other, the heroic spirit of Confucianism can eliminate the involvement of the demons brought about by cause and effect, so that Confucianism can practice without scruples, spread out in the Great Jin Dynasty, and eventually become a vein.
This was an eye-opener for Zhang Yifan.
The Great Jin Immortal Cultivation Realm is full of flowers, which makes Zhang Yifan gain a lot. Although these did not improve his cultivation, they increased his knowledge, broadened his horizons, and made his path of cultivation clearer.
Traveling all the way and practicing all the way, Zhang Yifan's life passed quickly and was very fulfilling.
One day, Zhang Yifan traveled to the foot of a mountain called Yinhe Mountain, which was nearly 100 miles away from the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty.
At this time, it was summer, and it was a hot summer, Zhang Yifan pretended to be a scholar in a hurry at this time, and also found a pergola to rest.
Originally, Zhang Yifan planned to enter the capital directly, but he didn't expect to hear two scholars in the same pergola looking tourists chatting about some scenery of Yinhe Mountain.
"Brother Xia, I heard that there are fairies in this Milky Way Mountain, I don't know if this rumor is true?"
"Haha, Brother Zheng, of course this matter is true, have you heard Mr. Su's famous sentence 'The Milky Way Fairy in the Milky Way Mountain, wrapped in silver and making a new look', isn't this just talking about a fairy? haha...."
"Brother Xia, you are having fun again. Everyone knows that Mr. Su Da was drunk and mistook the splash from the Milky Way Stream as a fairy flying in the air. ”
"Brother Zheng, even if you are not a fairy, it is worth your trip to see the spectacular scene of the Milky Way Flying Stream today. I don't know if Brother Zheng has watched Han Lao's "The Legend of the Galaxy Mountain"?"
"Of course I've read these famous articles, Han Lao wrote too much in the book, and this Milky Way Flying Stream has Han Lao's "Galaxy Mountain" said that it is two percent good, so I didn't come in vain. ”
"Brother Zheng, you are optimistic, and I promise not to disappoint you. ”
"Then let's go. ”
The two of them talked and laughed and walked towards Milky Way Mountain.
Zhang Yifan pondered for a moment, looked at Xiao Er, who was not too busy at the moment, and said, "Little brother, how should I browse this Galaxy Mountain?"
"Childe, you're asking the right question. To tell you the truth, I have been at the foot of this Milky Way Mountain since I was a child, and I know the scenery of this Milky Way Mountain very well. Don't look at this Milky Way Mountain, the reputation of many landscapes in our Dajin is not very loud, but this scenery is very unique, some great literati have left a lot, masterpieces. Originally, it was lively here, but unfortunately some of the scenery needs to be seen, there are many tourists who come to the city disappointed, and they are very dissatisfied with the Milky Way Mountain, and the crowd is leisurely, so the reputation of our Milky Way Mountain is much worse, and the tourists who come here are much worse than earlier. Xiao Er said regretfully.
"I see. I don't know what attractions are in this Galaxy Mountain?What is the most worthwhile thing to see now?" Zhang Yifan raised his eyebrows, and then asked.
"The most worthwhile thing to see in the Milky Way Mountain is the Milky Way Flying Stream, the silver Flying Stream goes straight down thousands of feet, which is very beautiful. Didn't the Li Immortals in ancient times say, 'The flying stream goes straight down to 3,000 feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way falls for nine days', and the Milky Way Mountain also came from this. Xiao Er talked endlessly.
"That's a real need to see. Zhang Yifan nodded and said.
"You don't have to look for the rest. ”
Then he put down a piece of silver and walked directly towards Milky Way Mountain.
Xiao Er was overjoyed, and secretly made up his mind to tell the guests more about the scenery of Yinhe Mountain in the future, maybe he would be able to make a small fortune.
......
The scenery of Yinhe Mountain in summer is very pleasant, although Zhang Yifan has seen a lot of strange scenery as an immortal cultivator, but seeing the lush scenery here is still very eye-catching.
As soon as he entered the mountain, Zhang Yifan heard the faint roar of water, and he couldn't help but look forward to it.
The best viewing point of the Milky Way Flying Stream in Milky Way Mountain is located halfway up the mountain, although Zhang Yifan can reach it in an instant, but he still walks up unhurriedly, like a mortal, but at ease.
On the way up, the tourists are in twos and threes, with smiles on their faces, and there is a group of people who look very dazzling.
Zhang Yifan took a curious look, and found that two of the people in this group had faint mana fluctuations, although the other party was very deep, but under his powerful divine sense, he still found a clue.
"Huh, I didn't think there were royal monks here. ”
Seeing the nun dress with a veil in the middle, Zhang Yifan recognized that this was a unique costume for the royal monks of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Zhang Yifan didn't want to cause trouble, so he hurriedly restrained his breath and quickly surpassed everyone.
"Brother Yan, the monk who secretly inquired into the palace before, his cultivation is not weak. The veiled nun said casually, her voice was like a yellow warbler, very good.
"Hehe, Your Royal Highness Princess, although this person is more clever in controlling his anger, it is obviously impossible to hide from His Royal Highness the Princess. However, this person also has the leisure and elegance to come here to watch the scenery, and he is obviously also an elegant person. The middle-aged scholar next to the female cultivator said with a smile in his hand and a fan.
"It seems that Brother Yan has a good impression of this person, and he is also heading towards the Guanliutai in his direction, maybe he will meet him again. ”
"How can you come to this Yinhe Mountain without looking at the Milky Way Flying Stream, every time you look at this Flying Stream, Yan has infinite emotion in his chest, but unfortunately his literary talent is really unbearable, and he can't make poems like Su University's scholars. ”
"Brother Yan is really too modest, with Brother Yan's status in Zhoushan Academy, he can't do it without literary talent. However, although the scholar of Nasu is a mortal body, the literary talent who is like a mortal person like a Wenqu star is really amazing, if he can practice, maybe he is a Li Immortal again. ”
"yes, that's a shame. The aura of the scholar of Su University is stronger than that of my teacher, and my teacher feels sorry every time he thinks of this. ”
Zhang Yifan naturally didn't hear the conversation between the two, he was in a hurry at this time, and soon arrived at the best place to observe the Milky Way Flying Flow-the Observation Deck.
Before he got close, Zhang Yifan heard a deafening roar.
When he watched from the railing, Zhang Yifan was shocked by the flying scene in front of him.
Although he had seen many spectacular sights, the scenery presented by the silver streams in front of him really impressed him, and he soared into his spirit.
The silver stream poured down like a heavenly river, making people sigh at the power of the heavens.
For some reason, looking at the splashing water, I really looked like a fairy, dancing in the air.
Zhang Yifan was distracted for a while, and his close friends came to mind. The images of Chen Yuling, Jiu'er, Jin Chan, Wu Huan'er and others are presented in the flying stream.
"The Milky Way is tilting towards the sky, and the mountains are pulling out to cover the capital. The flying stream spans 3,000 zhang, and it never returns. ”
Zhang Yifan unconsciously recited a poem to express his feelings in his chest.
"Hehe, good poetry, good poetry. A hearty voice sounded from behind.
Zhang Yifan was shocked in his heart, and secretly exclaimed carelessly, he was so close that he didn't notice it.
He turned his head to look and saw that the other party was the scholar he had met earlier, the royal masked nun and the scholar next to him, and it was the middle-aged scholar who was talking.
"Mr. is overrated, and he just came to the next place, and then groaned. Zhang Yifan said modestly.
"What a good thing, Your Excellency, in this poem, can it be said that this flying stream can cover the capital of my Great Jin?" said the masked female cultivator in a cold voice.
"I just sighed at the Milky Way Flying Flow in front of me, making a metaphor, maybe it's inappropriate, it's not intentional, don't blame it. Zhang Yifan thought that the royal nun blamed him for being disrespectful to the royal family, so he took a step back and said.
"As long as you can hold on to a cup of tea under the attack of this palace's divine sense, this palace will take over the matter. ”
The words of the masked female cultivator made Zhang Yifan a little stunned, he didn't want to cause trouble, but he was not afraid of things, although the two monks in front of him were both late Jindan cultivators, especially the middle-aged scholar was almost a Great Perfection cultivator, but with his current strength, he would not pay too much attention to the two.
"You can take your attack next, but then you have to tell you the real reason for it. ”
"You go on. ”
"This is not a place to learn, you and I are looking for another place?" Zhang Yifan looked at the tourists who were enjoying the scenery around him, and said with a moving expression.
"No, it's just a divine attack. ”
After the masked nun finished speaking, a feminine aura erupted directly, and the visitors around seemed to be frozen.
Then, the feminine aura condensed directly into three yin thorns and went straight to Zhang Yifan's door.
"Divine Consciousness Crystal!" Zhang Yifan was very surprised.
Divine Consciousness Crystal is a kind of Divine Consciousness Divine Power, although he doesn't think that the other party has mastered this kind of Divine Ability, but the power of those three Yin Thorns is not trivial, and it does look like Divine Consciousness Crystal Divine Power.
He didn't dare to be careless, and directly summoned the illusion of six Miao Lian and released the Miao Lian Protector Shield.
Bang! Bang!
Three yin thorns struck the shield one after another, causing the shield to tremble sharply, but it was always intact.
The power of the three yin thorns seemed to be much smaller than he expected, which made Zhang Yifan very puzzled.
Just as he was about to attack again, the masked nun withdrew her breath and stopped attacking.
At this time, the surrounding tourists recovered as if nothing had happened, and continued to watch the scenery.
Zhang Yifan's expression moved: "Your Excellency is no longer attacking?"
"No need, I can't imagine that Daoist friends can actually use Buddhist methods, it's really impressive, could it be that Daoist friends are from the Western Regions?" said the masked nun in a somewhat softer tone than before.
"In the next casual practice, I am not a person in the Buddhist sect. Zhang Yifan said lightly.
"Haha, it's the so-called don't fight, don't know each other. Seeing Brother Tai today, Yan was very happy. Introduce yourself, Yan Ming in Xia Zhoushan Academy, this is Her Royal Highness Sima Lan, the princess of my Dajin royal family. I don't know my brother's name, where does he come from?" Yan Ming said to Zhang Yifan with a smile.
"In Xia Li Yuan, he was born in a small city near Poison Ze in the north of the Jin Kingdom, and he cultivated freely. Li Yuan replied politely.
"Li Daoyou used the secret method in Buddhism before, right? Could it be the rumored Nine Wonderful Lotus Sutra?" asked Sima Lan curiously.
"I didn't expect Her Royal Highness the princess to know this method. Zhang Yifan indirectly admitted it.
Sure enough, it seems that Li Daoyou has a relationship with Buddhism. It is rumored that only monks who are related to the Buddha can practice the "Nine Wonderful Lotus Sutra", this secret method is extremely rare, there are not many Buddhist monks, and I can't imagine that Brother Li, who is not a disciple of Buddhism, will also use it, which really makes the palace admire. Sima Lan said.
Her Royal Highness praised it. Previously, Her Royal Highness the Princess used the Divine Consciousness Transformation Crystal Divine Power?" Zhang Yifan asked rhetorically.
"Hehe, that kind of power is not supernatural when I think about it, Brother Li also knows that it is not a supernatural power, but it is only activated by this palace with the help of a magic weapon, but it is just a power with supernatural powers. Sima Lan was vague and didn't want to elaborate.
"Haha, it's rare to get together today, and with beautiful scenery as a companion, it's better for us to chant poetry. Seeing this, Yan Ming hurriedly said.
Seeing this, the two didn't say anything, and began to enjoy the scenery, and under the strict guidance, the three of them also got along well.
