Chapter Ninety-Six: The State of the World, Heaven and Earth.
Outside Ronghua Mountain, although there are many monks who cannot enter the "Ronghua Mountain" to live, but in the same way, there are also many mortals who have lived near Ronghua Mountain for generations, although the vicinity of Ronghua Mountain has gradually become a world of righteous immortal cultivation over the years, and the total number of immortal cultivators of various factions is probably nearly forty or fifty thousand people, but within a radius of three hundred miles of "Ronghua Mountain", there are still many mortals, and there are as many as one million people.
There is a reason why such a small area has so many mortals.
At that time, when the Righteous Path Alliance was established, in line with the principle of defending layer by layer if there was an accident, and thinking that there would be a steady stream of other monks coming, if it was just "Ronghua Mountain", I was afraid that it would not be able to receive it, so in addition to the "Ronghua Mountain" set up many formations to defend steadily, the grandmasters personally took action, and set up three large formations within a radius of 500 miles, 300 miles and 100 miles outside the "Ronghua Mountain" respectively, surrounding the entire "Ronghua Mountain", and the defense was not unsolid.
And when the big array was set up, the mortals who originally lived near the "Ronghua Mountain" couldn't be driven away, after all, cultivating immortals were still people, and protecting human beings was also one of the duties of cultivating immortals, so they simply let the mortals within a radius of three hundred miles stay where they were, protected by the Righteous Path Alliance, so that those cultivators below the Bigu period could buy some needed things in the mortal world on weekdays.
It's just that after the formation was deployed, the Righteous Path Alliance got into unexpected trouble.
Over the years, the entire vast land of Shenzhou has been extremely chaotic, not to mention its own natural disasters*, even if it is the immortal fighting method in the sky, it is often just an aftermath, and a village is destroyed. In the past few decades, the population of hundreds of thousands of people in the vast land of China has been reduced by half.
And in the midst of this chaos and despair. The mortals near the "Ronghua Mountain" were protected by the "Qingxu Gate" and the Righteous Path Alliance, so they did not receive any major threats before and after the catastrophe, although the chaos and despair in other places were heard from time to time, but they felt too far away, as if it was a matter of another world, after all, it had nothing to do with them.
But when the news came out that the vicinity of Ronghua Mountain was closed by the formation. The mortals three hundred miles away from Ronghua Mountain suddenly thought of it. Isn't it precisely because they can have such a stable life that they rely on the protection of the Qingxu Gate? "Ronghua Mountain" has been cut off from them for 300 miles, and even if it is 500 miles away, it has been greatly restricted, so how should these mortals from 300 miles away get along in this catastrophic and chaotic world? Where can they seek refuge? How can they protect themselves?
For a while, all the mortals within a thousand miles of "Ronghua Mountain" panicked and gathered together. Outside the isolation and protection formation three hundred miles outside Ronghua Mountain, they either knelt down and couldn't bow, or made a loud noise. It is very much to accuse the Righteous Path Alliance of abandoning them and ignoring them. In desperation, the Righteous Path Alliance could only let these mortals clean up their homes and bring them into the formation.
Even now, there are often a large number of displaced people kneeling outside the formation to seek refuge in this way, within three hundred miles outside the "Ronghua Mountain", it is really a rare dense population in the vast land of Shenzhou, especially compared with the chaos and despair of the entire vast land of Shenzhou at this time, it is even more lively and stable. But it's a paradise on earth.
Except for the fact that at the beginning, some people were a little uncomfortable with the "immortals" constantly flying around in the sky or descending directly into the crowd to buy and ask for something, but these mortals also accepted the new life very calmly. After all, in this day and age. It's incredibly lucky to be alive.
As they got used to it, these mortals no longer made a fuss about the gods flying around in the sky. Some people even really established a friendship with Xiu Xian, and they were eating and drinking around with the news of the so-called immortals all day long. And the latest generation of young men were born like this, but they have taken the coexistence of immortals and mortals for granted, and feel that this world is like this.
Or because mortals have a lot of contact with cultivating immortals, and the group of boys who have watched the immortals fly around since childhood are also extremely yearning for this kind of flying ability, or in order to raise such a large population, there are often low-level cultivators who use Taoism to help mortals cultivate and obtain the worship of mortals, and often see people kneeling in front of Ronghua Mountain to apprentice, and over the years, the Righteous Path Alliance has increased a large number of low-level disciples, especially the registered disciples are numerous, and after Jiuhua joined the Righteous Path Alliance, he also received a lot of disciples, but there are also a few good seedlings.
In fact, as soon as you go down the mountain and see the bustling mortal towns spread over the hundreds of miles, the cultivators also have a process from being stunned to adapting.
The above is the situation in the vicinity of "Ronghua Mountain" over the years.
And Xu Qingfan, after feeling that he had nothing to do, flew towards the mortal world under the "Ronghua Mountain".
Descending from the sky into the bustling crowd, but it provoked a burst of chaos on the streets, pushing to make way for Xu Qingfan to land in the open space, in the eyes of a group of mortals who respected and worshipped or awe, Xu Qingfan stepped on auspicious clouds, his temperament was ethereal and mysterious, and he landed slowly, but it really had a bit of the appearance of a legendary immortal, but what made mortals feel a little strange was that the divine beast on the shoulders of this immortal was a crow-like thing? Could it be that this immortal with a delicate face and calm temperament is a legendary black god?
Thinking of this, the mortals pushed again, and made the open space left for Xu Qingfan even bigger, because in the legend, the black god is in charge of bad luck, and wherever he goes, everyone who sees it will be unlucky for three days......
Many people secretly decided in their hearts that they must bathe in incense after they go back, and find one or two Taoist priests to do it for themselves, so as to get rid of the mildew on their bodies.
Xiao Hei rarely saw so many people, although the two small eyes were still full of indifference, but they kept looking around with the rotation of their heads, and seemed to be extremely curious, not knowing that it had been taken by the surrounding mortals to take advantage of the beast, and even affected his master.
Xu Qingfan didn't care about the eyes of the mortals around him, but just walked towards a beautiful attic not far away. Just looking at the lively street meeting in front of him, he felt a little emotion in his heart, he has been acting outside the "Ronghua Mountain" all the year round, and the scenes he has seen are all full of devastation, the beast mad monks are rampant, there is no living mouth within a hundred miles, and there are no dead people, compared with such a noisy but peaceful scene, but it is really heaven and earth.
After all, emotion is just emotion, and people can't always indulge in emotion, just like Bai Yu's determination, it's just a fleeting moment.
Over the years, Ronghua Mountain has not opened the formation in a fixed place for a period of time, one is to allow those refugees seeking asylum to enter, and the other is to allow those bold businessmen to enter and trade.
In this place, the population is dense, and the vacant land is either used to build houses, or is opened up for farmland, and there is nowhere to grow tea.
It is precisely because of the shortage of tea sources that there is only this one teahouse around the entire "Ronghua Mountain", and the price is extremely expensive, except for a few immortals and a few mortals with rich families, but few people enter
In this noisy world, under the obstruction of the high price, it is rare to be quiet here, I like the environment here, and the tea art here is even better than Zhang Ningmei's by three points, so whenever Xu Qingfan returns to "Ronghua Mountain" after completing the task, he will go to this teahouse to drink tea and consume time to relax his nerves.
"Immortal Xu, you're here. ”
As soon as Xu Qingfan stepped into this teahouse, the shopkeeper immediately greeted him, seven years is not a long time, not a short time, but it can change many things, such as making Xu Qingfan the current emperor, and making a running hall become the current shopkeeper.
Xu Qingfan nodded, but the shopkeeper said: "The seat you usually sit on happens to be empty this time, unless it is full, I will keep it there." ”
While talking, the shopkeeper led Xu Qingfan into the second floor of the teahouse, and sat down at a corner, ordinary people like the upstairs window, through the window, looking at the bustle downstairs from upstairs, the world is full of states, there is a sense of epiphany, as for what is enlightened, but it is impossible to say.
Xu Qingfan was originally the same, but I don't know when, he was tired of the noise of the world, and he was tired of being in the noise, so why bother to feel the noise of others?
Seeing the shopkeeper leading Xu Qingfan in, everyone upstairs was stunned, at this time the upstairs were all mortals, and they were quite wealthy, they were all people with good eyesight, and even understood the difference between immortals and immortals, and at a glance Xu Qingfan knew his identity as an immortal, although it was strange, he was not surprised, he just gestured to Xu Qingfan, and then went to drink tea.
"The old rules?"
After Xu Qingfan sat down, the shopkeeper asked.
Xu Qingfan nodded, and just wanted to say something, but he saw another person walking up from downstairs, but the image of that person made Xu Qingfan stunned slightly.
