Chapter 82 Drawing on the Nine Tails
A small road leads from the mountain to the village at the foot of the mountain. The green grass is ankle-deep on both sides, with some small trees here and there. The sky is clear and the sunshine is warm.
As Yang Guang walked down the road, he gradually heard faint voices coming from the villages at the foot of the mountain.
This time he did not go to the world with the mark inside the door, but opened the door directly, ready to try to see if he would encounter a world with prosperous martial arts.
As a result, after opening the door, in the changing light and shadow, Sun Simiao and Li Chunfeng who were following him disappeared, and they could be vaguely seen turning into two points of light and falling into different places in the world.
I don’t know whether it was because Yang Guang used the Taishang Gate to deal with the sense of crisis before, which caused the abnormality in this random time travel, or whether it was because every time he took others with him to randomly travel, he would be separated from each other and land alone.
But there is no need to worry. Neither Li Chunfeng nor Sun Simiao are stupid. Sun Simiao only came to travel through this time after he was promoted to heaven. They should be able to protect themselves.
Inside the Gate of Taishang, the mark that represents this world is written on it. Yang Guang has no memory of any literary work with this name, and he knows nothing about this world.
In the village at the foot of the mountain, there is a road in the middle. On both sides of the road are not ordinary houses, but various business shops. Some sell dried game products, and some make some exquisite food. The objects of trade are basically from that road.
The strangers passing by on the road, the sound of camel bells, the light tracks crisscrossed by carriages and horses, and the sound of high-pitched conversation can be heard everywhere, and it looks quite prosperous.
In the process of walking from the mountain to the village at the foot of the mountain, Yang Guang had already improved his perception and got a lot of information from the words of those people talking, the breath of their bodies, etc.
First of all, the words spoken by people here are very similar to Chinese. At most, it has the feeling of a southern dialect, which is not incomprehensible. There is no need to directly learn a foreign language by feeling the mental fluctuations.
This village is called Shixi, and it is a small place in the northwest of Dongting Kingdom. Dongting is a big country, at least in the knowledge of everyone here, there seems to be no other country that can compare with it.
Then there is martial arts and Taoism in this world, among which those with advanced cultivation seem to have performances that are not inferior to those of heaven.
As for other more detailed information, there is no way to get it from the chats of these people. Although Yang Guang can read other people's memories, he doesn't like to do it casually, so he asked someone for directions and found out that he was five miles north.
There was a county town a few miles away, and there was a library in the city, so I spent some time going to that city to read books.
The text in the book is basically in traditional Chinese characters. According to the records on it, Dongting is indeed the most famous country in the world. It has a vast territory and a prosperous culture in Wuchang. The country has been passed down for more than a thousand years, and the high-level system has been in place since 150 years.
After the great chaos before, there has been a fundamental change, which is quite strange.
The royal family still controls the military power, and King Dongting serves as the symbol of the country. However, there are also deans and tutors selected from various academies and major and small schools in various places, working from bottom to top, forming another set of management.
The system is in charge of the economy and people's livelihood. The heads of many schools will jointly elect a chief dean, whose status is almost the same as that of the King of Dongting. The two parties, soldiers, horses and money, infiltrate each other, check each other, and jointly govern Dongting.
Outside the border of Dongting's Eastern Kingdom is a vast and boundless forest, in which countless venomous snakes and beasts live, as well as wild and exotic plants. It is said that a few humans with backward civilization also live in it. The northern border is bounded by vast mountains, and further north of the mountains is the boundless desert.
On the other side of the desert are some small countries that are fighting each other. Beyond the western border is the sea. There are archipelagos on the sea, and some islands are united to form a country of their own.
In the south, there is the only country in the world that Dongting wants to see, and its name is Nanluo.
The ancestors of the Nanluo Empire were nomadic people. They gave birth to several generations of heroes who united all parties and unified the entire prairie. It has been passed down for nearly 300 years. They have been trying to move north and have a very bad relationship with Dongting. The previous battles
There are victories and defeats for each other, but Nan Luo usually has the upper hand.
However, since 150 years ago, the Dongting system has changed and the national power has been increasing steadily, and it has gradually gained a long-term advantage in the confrontation with Nanluo.
After reading the introduction to all the countries in the world, Yang Guang searched for information about practitioners and found that there were really good people with profound backgrounds who had compiled such a book. The opening chapter was just two sentences.
"The three ancestors and two virtuous gentlemen, the Yuan Buddha in Beiling is the only one."
This book was written two years ago. It reviews the contemporary masters of spiritual practice. It recommends the three ancestors of Fire, Thunder, and Wangqing, the Sword Master of Nanluo Snow Mountain, the Master of the Five-Colored Pirates of the West Sea, and nearly a dozen of them.
Xu Junzi, the dean of Zhixing Academy who has become famous this year.
As for "Beiling Yuan Buddha Taishang Gu", it refers to two sects that have been inherited for more than a thousand years, not just an individual.
After these six masters and two major sects, there are also introductions about masters from other parties. However, in the later introduction, only the masters in Dongting are detailed and spend a lot of space. Most of the masters outside Dongting are briefly mentioned.
.All character introductions are based on deeds and do not indicate the level of spiritual practice.
Yang Guang stayed in this library for half an hour before he came out. Walking on the street, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
The sound of busy traffic on the street suddenly disappeared, and everyone's expressions became dull, their eyes were dull, and they kept their original movements motionless.
Even the horses, the caged birds in the hands of wealthy people, looked dull and stopped moving.
The railing of a restaurant against the street suddenly broke. With a loud sound like the collision of two big bells, a young man in a white robe turned over and jumped from the second floor of the restaurant, landing on the street.
He looked a little embarrassed, with a seven or eight-year-old child under his arm. He said with a little sadness in his anger: "Xiahou, you and I are sworn brothers, and you want to kill me too."
The person called Xia Hou was a middle-aged man wearing a splendid robe. He held a scroll in his hand and walked to the gap in the railing. He looked down at the young man in the moon-white robe, looking upright and awe-inspiring.
"Nostalgia for the past. As a Nanluo spy, you have sneaked into our Dongting for many years. You have evil intentions, and everyone has found out and punished you. How can I, the Marquis of Xia, not be able to tell the difference between a small righteousness and a big righteousness between Jinlan and the great enmity between the two countries?"
As he spoke, he stretched his hands forward vigorously, and the scroll in his hand was covered with a dark halo. A black cat with nine tails grew on it, his eyes glowed green, and he jumped out of the painting paper.
People on the street suddenly woke up and turned a blind eye to the nine-tailed black cat. But when they saw the confrontation between Xia Hou and the young man, they all knew something was wrong. The merchants hurriedly packed up their shops and pedestrians hurriedly left.
