Chapter 5 Huangzu Lane
Yihuan became more and more strange because of the expression on his face, and even Zhang Tao's expression began to be a little unnatural. Not for anything else, but for whom will worship himself?
However, the two of them fell into the eyes of the city guards, and their meaning was a little difficult to guess. Do you think you shouldn't worship the statue of the emperor's ancestors? Don't want to worship, or do you disdain to worship?
Whatever the case was, the guards naturally came to a result in the end: these two people were disrespectful to the statue of the emperor!
Not long after, it was not only the one guard who spoke to Huan Yin and Zhang Tao again, but all twelve guards of the city gathered together, their faces showed obvious vigilance, and they shouted in unison: "Don't you hurry up!?"
This shout naturally immediately alarmed all the passers-by, even if they hadn't noticed Huan Yin and Zhang Tao, the two "outliers" before, now they all turned their eyes over and kept looking.
In the end, on top of the high city, an old man poked his head out, frowned and observed for a long time, seeing that Huan Yin and Zhang Tao did not move after all, an order was immediately issued: "Disrespectful to the emperor's ancestors, take the two of them to me!"
Although none of the twelve guards could see through the depth of Huan Yin and Zhang Tao's cultivation, they all knew in their hearts that disrespecting the emperor was the number one sin in the entire Qingzhou City, and it must not be forgiven. Therefore, they will not hesitate to carry out the order to arrest Huan Yin and Zhang Tao.
With a loud shout in unison, the twelve people directly formed a circle and came over to Huan Yin and Zhang Tao. Huan Yin and Zhang Tao glanced at each other with a wry smile, and as soon as their bodies flickered, the monks who had locked their eyes and divine sense on the two of them suddenly felt that there was a flower in front of them, and the person was gone.
Where the two of them disappeared, a little bit of essence was scattered, and at the same time floated towards the twelve guards guarding the city and the old man at the head of the city. They wanted to dodge, but they couldn't dodge at all, and after being hit by the essence, the essence submerged into their bodies.
To their surprise, however, this essence was not some kind of attack, but a nourishing force so powerful that they couldn't understand it at all. This force immediately made their cultivation begin to break through and climb up!
The cultivation of the twelve guards has all been upgraded by two levels in just one moment.
As for the old man at the head of the city, he had originally cultivated to the Heavenly Chong Great Perfection. Due to the wounding of the enemy and the damage of the Daoji, he could not break through again in this life, so he came to be the commander of the defending city. But at this moment, that little bit of essence power actually directly repaired his Dao foundation, and even made his cultivation break through in one fell swoop and stepped into the extreme realm!
"Who are those two people?" the old man and the city guard were shocked at the same time, and the first thought in their hearts was this.
Then, a voice echoed in their ears: "Thank you for your protection." ”
Then, they heard a childish voice from a child standing under the city: "Mother, that white-clothed and white-haired uncle just now looks like our imperial ancestor." ”
......
In a flash, when Huan Yin and Zhang Tao reappeared, they were already on a lively street. However, they did not actually appear, and they were naturally not visible to others. After all, they broke the rules of Qingzhou City just now, and there was no statue of Bai Huan Yin, so they forcibly broke in. They are afraid that they will be discovered when they reappear, and it will be inconvenient.
"Just find Wei Qianlong's kid directly and meet him, anyway, I don't have any other old people here. Huan Yin thought so in his heart.
Then, Huan Yin raised his eyes and saw that an extremely bright smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect to come here in a flash. Huan Yin muttered to himself.
Zhang Tao's eyes lit up at the moment, looking at the endless flow of people around him, looking at the vendors who were setting up stalls and shouting, and looking at the tea customers who were talking loudly, and asked: "Childe, what kind of place is this, are you familiar with it?"
Huan Yin looked at Zhang Tao with a surprised look, thinking that he was a monk from hell, he had never seen mortals, let alone the downtown of mortals, and now he suddenly saw so many new things, it was not surprising that he was surprised and excited. So Huan Yin explained with a smile: "This is a vegetable market, a place for mortals to buy and sell rice, meat, and vegetables. Look at that grandma, the one she sells is called watermelon. There is also the uncle, the one he sells is called Chinese cabbage. As for the big man over there, he should be selling beef. ”
Zhang Tao was amazed: "I see, I see." However, I don't seem to be very particular about the things they eat, and many of them are meat that has just been killed, and vegetables that have just been dug out of the soil. Do mortals eat so casually?"
Huan Yin shook his head and said, "Elder Zhang, you don't understand this." In our immortal family, there is no such thing as eating, eating is hospitality, etiquette, and exquisiteness. And mortals eat, that is for life, three meals a day, one meal is indispensable. Therefore, the things sold in this market are not the best products carefully selected by our immortals. But although those things look average, you don't know that the real deliciousness comes from these home-grown things. ”
Zhang Tao looked surprised: "So that's the case, today is really a long experience." It seems that I have to taste this mortal food, otherwise this trip to the world will be in vain. By the way, Childe, what kind of tea are those people drinking, why do I look so ordinary, but they are as happy as fairies after drinking them one by one?"
Huan Yin said: "You don't understand this again, mortals drink tea, literati and scholars drink elegance, martial arts masters drink magnanimity, and three religions and nine streams drink the world." Those people, although they have three religions and nine streams, but a bowl of tea, a few words, new things and all kinds of strange news in this world, they are all melted in. They drink tea, but they taste all kinds of things, do you think they can not be happy?"
Zhang Tao's expression froze, and he muttered to himself in a low voice: "It turns out that the realm of mortals is so high......"
Coming here, Huan Yin was happy from the bottom of his heart. Because for him, this is not only a vegetable market that he has not seen for a long time, but also a vegetable market that he is extremely familiar with.
In the human world for decades, Ruan Shushu always held him by the hand and came to this vegetable market to buy vegetables and grain. In every inch of land here, there may be footprints of the two of them.
A touch of emotion came from the bottom of his heart, Huan Yin traced the footprints of the past in this vegetable market with Zhang Tao, who had bright eyes, and sighed faintly after a long time.
"Elder Zhang, accompany me over there to have a look. Huan Yin said.
Zhang Tao noticed the more and more obvious melancholy on Huanyin's side, and asked, "Childe, do you remember anything sad?"
Huan Yin said, "Do you remember Huan Shu?"
Zhang Tao nodded: "Fairy Ruan has a stunning appearance, she should be a fairy in the heavenly realm, right?"
Huan Yin said: "She and I have been a mortal couple in the alley over there for decades. The past is really vivid. ”
Zhang Tao didn't speak anymore, but nodded silently and followed Huan Yin over. Zhang Tao was happy in his heart, because Huan never talked about his personal affairs. Although he is touching the scene at this moment, he can say to Zhang Tao according to Huan Yin's temperament, which means that Huan Yin has really regarded Zhang Tao as a person around him and a person close to him.
The more you go, the fewer people you get. walked out of the vegetable market, and walked less than thirty zhang away, Huan Yin found that there were almost no people here.
This section of the road, in Huan Yin's memory, is the connecting road between Green Willow Alley and the vegetable market, and it has always been lively, unless the vegetable market closes the market. Then why are there so few people here now, and there is a faint solemn atmosphere, as if it is close to the imperial city?
After walking some distance further, when Huan Yin saw the four guards standing guard at the mouth of Green Willow Alley from a distance, he finally seemed to understand something.
"Could it be because of me? But Qianlong has always regarded the people as the sky, and knows that I am easy-going by nature, so I shouldn't do such a thing. Thinking like this, Huan Yin and Zhang Tao finally came to the mouth of Green Willow Alley quietly and stood in front of the guards.
With Huan Yin and Zhang Tao's cultivation, the four guards naturally couldn't see them at all. And when Huan Yin looked up at the archway at the entrance of the alley, he saw three big characters on the archway: Huangzu Lane.
"It's really because of me. Huan Yin shook his head and smiled bitterly. Then he looked at the four standing straight, dressed in black, like guards who could kill at any time, and the wry smile on their faces slowly turned into a slight anger.
It's just that the name of this Green Willow Alley has been changed, and it looks like it has been sealed up, driving all the neighbors away. Now the guards in front of him are murderous one by one, where is this still the Fancheng alley in Huan Yin's memory where he has lived for many years and spent an ordinary life?
"The people are gone, the name has changed, the vitality is gone, and the slightest memory is gone! What the hell is this kid doing, he actually drove away the neighbors who have taken root for generations for me, it's really unbelievable!" Huan Yin was a little angry, thinking to himself that Wei Qianlong had been in a high position for a long time, and he was not the hot-blooded young man who could rob the rich and help the poor for the people? If that was the case, he didn't want this apprentice!
"Let's go, Elder Zhang, let's go see what this alley has become. Flicking his robe, Huan Yin raised his feet and walked into the alley in a huff.
