Volume 1 Interrogation Chapter 5 Chang'an (1)

The group of people was martial arts, and they traveled extremely fast with all their strength, and they traveled for five hours a day, and arrived at Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire, seven days later.

Although Chang'an City is called a city, but the area is very large, enough to have more than half the size of the place, the north is connected with Tianxin Lake, Tianxin Lake is a big lake, the smoke and waves are vast, the water is sparkling, the area is not under Chang'an City. There are countless tributaries of the river that flow into it. At the same time, the giant city wall surrounding Chang'an is also surrounded by three missing one, leaving a big hole here, which is convenient for the other two border places connected with Tianxin Lake - Extreme North Road and Tianbei Road.

Xu Yunshen was in front of him.

He looked up.

In front of you is the city wall of Chang'an City.

A few miles away, you can see a piece of black intercepted between heaven and earth, swallowing half of the blue and white sky. On the left and right, Rao is Xu Yunshen's eyesight, and he can't see the edge. Different from the previous Lijiang City wall, such a huge city wall is as new as new, which is amazing.

The group approached the city wall and found that there was an oval hole in the wall, and it was dark inside, and there was nothing to see, and there were only some lamps and lanterns on the wall inside. The cave is like a gate, but there is no gate and no man.

"Who built such a big city wall?" Xu Yunshen was determined, and he didn't drop his jaw in shock, but asked curiously.

Ruan Meizhi shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's an immortal." She pointed to heaven and sent the wall to heaven. But she continued: "I've heard that the wall seems to be guarded against something else. Not the barbarians of the North. ”

"Anything else?" Wu Pingtian had heard of it for the first time, although he had been to Chang'an many times.

More Ruan Meizhi didn't know, vaguely past, and the three of them had to let go of their curiosity.

Yuzhong Song on the side has always been expressionless.

"This hole is the city gate, and there is one every fifty miles, and there are mechanisms in it that can be opened and closed, but it is open all year round. There are soldiers guarding the other side of the door, and it is usually deserted, and only inside is it popular. Ruan Meizhi acted as an explanation, of course, mainly to Xu Yunshen.

They walked into the hole.

Xu Yunshen looked up, looked down again, and then looked left and right, wanting to see the doorway of the city wall, but he didn't get anything for half a day, only knew that it was the same material, which made him even more amazed by the magic workmanship, and at the same time he became more and more yearning for life after entering Beijing.

They all came here, and the group did not run at full speed like they were outside, but walked slowly and walked for an hour before coming out.

I'm afraid the city wall is twenty miles thick.

When I came out, I saw a scene like a dark night, and the lights were flickering, which made people wonder.

In the excitement, Xu Yunshen learned that because the city wall was too high, there would be no sun at a certain time of the day in a section of the road near the city wall. In other words, there are fewer daylight hours in areas near the city walls than in normal areas. This is especially noticeable in winter. At the same time, Chang'an is generally divided into several parts of the area, first of all, the outermost circle is close to the entrance, the flow of people is larger, and it is also more prosperous, called the near wall. Further inward, there are endless fields that are used for food, called grain areas. Further down is the most prosperous area of Gyeonggi, which is the most prosperous, including the Imperial Palace.

Due to the long darkness, the area near the wall developed a unique scene.

The "Night Market" is one of them.

Bursts of laughter and laughter came from the restaurants and teahouses on the side of the street, and there were also the tunes of silk and bamboo orchestras. The streets were as bright as day, and there were bursts of noise. There are also official residences scattered among the shops dotted around. However, if it is in the crowd, there will be no difference in identity, and they will all be integrated into the prosperity of Chang'an.

"It seems like a lot of fun here. Xu Yunshen looked left and right, bought a few strings of sugar gourds from the vendors passing by, and then took a bunch by himself.

Ruan Meizhi was holding a sugar gourd in his hand, licking it was not, biting it was not, and the corners of his eyes jumped: I don't know if the fairy can't eat this kind of food outside, what if he eats it all over his mouth, it will damage the image.

The remaining three kissed and licked the sugar gourd without any burden, including Yuzhongge, although he had been expressionless, he ate more fiercely than Wu Pingtian.

Seeing Xu Yunshen sighed, is this girl so pitiful, is she also abused like me in the mountains? But why doesn't my sister eat it?

Looking at Xu Yunshen's puzzled eyes, the corners of her eyes continued to jump, and said, "Then let's say goodbye, I still have something to do, I have to go back quickly, don't forget to go to Wuzijian." As she spoke, her hand holding the sugar gourd tightened, because passers-by frequently looked sideways at the strange combination and stood in the middle of the road eating the sugar gourd.

"Oh good, sister, be careful. Xu Yunshen finished eating the licking stick, and then put it in his mouth.

"I followed him. Yuzhongge took half a step back and stayed behind Xu Yunshen.

Ruan Meizhi had a headache, deeply worried about the future of Yuzhongge, and then slapped Wu Pingtian with an eighty-pound knife: "Don't eat, let's go, follow me." ”

Wu Pingtian was in pain, and dropped half of the sugar gourd, and he kept looking at the sugar gourd on the ground, as if he wanted to pick it up again.

Ruan Meizhi couldn't bear it, nodded to the other two, and then stunned Wu Pingtian, carried him and started light exercises, and disappeared into the distance.

"It's so beautiful, when will I learn it? Xu Yunshen couldn't help but sigh, because when he was in a hurry a few days ago, he was running wildly with his legs spread, although the speed would not fall, but it was really unsightly.

"Buddhism is not good at speed, senior brother, it is very rare for you to be able to be so fast. Unless you cultivate some more Wild Dao Kung Fu, but that will affect your later progress in the Dao, and do more harm than good. Yu Zhongge said, and also finished eating the sugar gourd, and with a light throw of his hand, the sign entered the road box.

Xu Yunshen was thinking, since I am still in the initial realm, then I can completely cultivate the wild path, then I can also use light skills, as for the Buddha Dao?

......

Far away in the Qingshan Temple, the old monk began to sneer.

Luo, the little monk who was listening to the lecture on the side, heard the sound interrupted, saw the old monk's laughter, and asked suspiciously, "Abbot, what are you laughing at?"

The old monk's smile became a little warmer, and he touched Luo Wuxin's head and said, "It's okay, it's just a bit fun to guess some of your senior brother's situation now." But he said in his heart, little rabbit cub, still want to cultivate other ways? You can go, hehe, if you can do it, just do it.

Luo Wuxin didn't seem to understand whether he understood or not, and continued to listen to the scriptures obediently.

......

Xu Yunshen and Yu Zhongge began to go around in this night market, but the main thing was that Xu Yunshen wanted to turn, and Yu Zhongge was not interested in these, but Xu Yunshen insisted that he must enter the world like this, so he followed him.

In this near-wall area, you can also get a glimpse of a little Chang'an's style.

Even if it has been more than 100 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the blood of martial arts still flows in the Tang people, both men and women, most of them will wear swords or carry knives, of different lengths and styles. Some of the men wore long robes, brocade robes when they had money, and plain clothes when they had no money, striving to be elegant and chic; some of them walked in a martial style and dressed in similar ways, all of them were sturdy and strong, and most of the weapons they wore were heavy weapons. There are also boundless and wandering wreckage, which has its own peculiarity.

And women are bold and open in their clothes, and they have a variety of styles. There are light gauze and thin clothes, looming, with all kinds of styles; there are also brocade and jade robes, which are heavy and gorgeous; and there are heroines among women, who are dressed in inches for the convenience of movement, but the muscles make many men ashamed of themselves.

Under the darkness caused by the tall city wall, with the light, Xu Yun has gained a lot of insight along the way. Not only people, but also things.

All kinds of strange things, all kinds of new shops.

"Okay!" Xu Yun coaxed in the crowd watching the show.

In the middle is a troupe performing tricks.

Yuzhongge still followed behind Xu Yunshen expressionlessly.

Xu Yunshen, who was in high spirits, turned around and saw a "stone", which was also slightly cooled, and touched his head, but he took Yu Zhongge's hand and walked out, saying at the same time: "Go, since you are with me, I have the responsibility to cure your facial paralysis, just as you and I are destined." ”

Yuzhongge's expression changed, and he followed Xu Yunshen in a daze.

Xu Yunshen took her as if it was the first time he entered the city, of course, it was Xu Yunshen's first time in the city.

Yuzhongge went from having no waves in his heart at the beginning, to occasionally smiling and laughing later, and only this little change also made Xu Yunshen greatly encouraged.

For the first time, Yuzhongge was dragged around like a child, playing everywhere.

It was right for me to come down the mountain to seek the Tao, Yu Zhongge thought firmly. She herself opposed the infinite elevation of the natural avenue by the Natural Gate, and claimed to be the ancestor of all the paths, requiring all disciples to conform to "nature" and have a dead state of mind.

She's always wanted to break this backwater-like vibe.

In the future, when I bring my younger brothers and sisters down, I will also take their hands and walk around, maybe they can also experience it. Oh yes, and I'm going to stare at their chests, maybe it's an opportunity to get in the mood. Yuzhongge was cranky.

After two days of shopping, Xu Yunshen's wallet was much empty. Instead, there are all kinds of snacks in the belly, as well as many objects on the hands.

You have to go to the Gyeonggi area first, or you may starve to death. He looked at Yuzhong Song next to him.

Who would have thought that this girl was fine on the first day, but on the second day, it was like a different person, and Xu Yunshen, who had a big appetite, touched her wallet. When going to bed at the inn at night, Yuzhongge also said that he wanted to sleep with Xu Yunshen, Xu Yunshen hesitated, and then agreed. Because the bed is not small, and the cost of opening another room is not small. He couldn't help it.

It's just that the shopkeeper's eyes are a little strange.

Ruan Meizhi only said the taboo once, and he had forgotten it cleanly. If she were here, I was afraid that she would have to hit Xu Yunshen's shiny skull with an eighty-pound knife one after another.

......

In the distance, Ruan Meizhi sneezed.

Strange, who scolded me? Ruan Meizhi frowned.

She was in a beautiful garden pavilion.

"What's wrong Meizhi, I'm sick this trip to Jiangnan. A beautiful woman looked at Ruan Meizhi worriedly. She was dressed in a formal dress, combing the noble lady's bun that was popular in the upper class, and the skirt was wrinkled, with patterns inlaid on it, and gold threads, which was graceful and luxurious.

There were also several serving maids standing around.

Ruan Meizhi swept away the image of the cold fairy and the spicy woman who was usually outside, and replied softly: "No, Sister Huang, I don't know what's going on." ”

The beautiful woman muttered: "It stands to reason that you are already a person from the Three Realms of Martial Arts, and ordinary diseases will not invade your body, could it be the induction of heaven and man that the national teacher often says?"

"Don't worry about it, Sister Huang, let's talk about the details of how you beat the disciples of the Great Sect at the beginning, I'm very curious. Ruan Meizhi pleaded there.

The beautiful woman smiled and touched her head and agreed.
