Chapter 400: First Approach to Chang'an
The layout of the entire Chang'an City is mysterious, and it seems to form a peerless formation. With the power of the entire Chang'an Capital, the spiritual energy rising from the spiritual veins here is suppressed, making the spiritual energy of the world here extremely rich. Not only the monks in Chang'an City benefited, but also the ordinary people benefited greatly.
These people's means of conquering nature can be said to be against the will of heaven.
While Shen Luo was amazed, he did not stay on the high slope for too long. He continued to move forward and soon came to the city.
Chang'an City is square, with thirteen city gates in the southeast, west and north, and hundreds of official roads lead to all directions.
Chen Luo was in the eastern part of Chang'an City at this moment and came to a city gate in Dongcheng. The three big words "Xuande Gate" were written on the city gate. In addition to the largest main gate in the middle, there were two small gates on both sides.
The main door specializes in providing various vehicles and horses, trucks entering and leaving. The small door on the left allows ordinary people to enter and exit. There are a large number of people there, and there are a long line. The small door on the right has a lot fewer people, but it also lined up in a small line.
The average per capita who ranks here is extraordinary and walks with wind, and they are actually monks.
The ordinary people next to them seemed to be accustomed to these monks and did not care too much about them.
Chen Luo saw this scene and walked straight into the stone gate on the right, standing at the end of the team, with five or six monks in front of them.
Although he has no spiritual consciousness now, his eyes are very clever, and he can vaguely see the cultivation level of these monks, most of whom are in the Qi Refining Stage.
Two young men in blue robes stood on both sides, and their bodies were flashing with inspiration, but they were two monks in the fasting stage.
A yellow-robed man in front came forward and handed over a piece of fairy jade. A young man in blue robes took out a blue token and waved at the yellow-robed man.
A blue light shot out from the token and shone on the man, but it quickly dissipated and disappeared.
The young man in blue robe immediately handed the token to the yellow robe man. The yellow robe man took it, and without asking anything, he stepped into the city.
Chen Luo saw this scene, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The other people stepped forward, and it was the same, and it was soon the turn of sinking.
"This fellow Taoist has invited me." The young man in the blue robe on his left stretched out his hand to Chen Luo.
"Two fellow Taoists, what's the point of this move when they first arrived in Chang'an?" Chen Luo took out a piece of immortal jade, but did not hand it over immediately, and asked with his hands.
"It turns out that fellow Taoist has never been to Chang'an. I am a monk under the Tang Dynasty government. This token is a property issued by the Tang Dynasty government. It is considered an identity certificate. You must carry it with you after entering Chang'an City and do not leave for a moment. Once you find someone without a token, you can be expelled from Chang'an at the least, and you can be imprisoned in a prison at the worst." The young man in the blue robe on his right hand explained.
"This token is just used as proof of identity?" Chen Luo asked.
"It also has a warning effect. fellow Taoists are also immortal cultivators. They should also understand that we immortal cultivators have powerful power. If they are used to do evil, they can easily cause a disaster. This is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, the center of a country, and we have to act cautiously. Therefore, we set the rules that all immortal cultivators must wear tokens when entering the city. Please understand it." The young man in the blue robe on his left said again.
"Can you prevent monks from doing evil by bringing this token?" Chen Luo was still puzzled.
"Well, our Tang Dynasty government naturally has a way." The young man in blue robe on his left smiled and still didn't explain it thoroughly.
Chen Luo's eyes moved and he soon realized that there were special restrictions in this token, so he could monitor the monks who were carrying it.
"Of course, as long as you do not do anything that violates the law, this token will not have any impact on fellow Taoists." said the young man in blue robe on his right hand.
Chen Luo was silent for a while, but without saying anything, and handed over the immortal jade in his hand. This feeling of being monitored made him very uncomfortable, but this was the rule set by the Tang Dynasty government, and even if he was a small person, he was useless even if he opposed it.
"Thank you for your understanding." After accepting it, the young man took out a token and swayed it. A blue light shot over him.
A light flashed at the top of the token, and a small person appeared quickly, just like he was sinking at this moment.
"From today until you leave Chang'an City, fellow Taoists must carry this item with you, and do not damage the token. You will still need to hand over it when you leave the city in the future." The young man in blue robe reminded again.
Chen Luo nodded, put away the token, and stepped into the city.
A bluestone Avenue, six meters wide enough for four or five carriages to drive side by side, appears in front of it. There are rows of tall buildings on both sides of the street, most of which are shops of mortals, and the things they buy and sell are goods needed by mortals, which are extremely prosperous.
Chen Luo quickly withdrew his gaze and walked forward, thinking about finding someone to ask where Changpingfang is located.
"This immortal master is polite." A thin man walked over quickly from the street and bowed to Chen Luo.
"Who are you? What's the matter?" Chen Luo glanced at the other party and asked with a frown.
"The villain Guan Feng, looking at the appearance of Master Xian, is this your first time in Chang'an City? I am a native of Chang'an City. He is very familiar with all the places in the city. Wherever you want to go or do something, the villain can definitely help you." Guan Feng said quickly, looking at Chen Luo with expectant eyes.
"Are you a guide for others?" Chen Luo raised his eyebrows. It was the first time he met someone who did such a thing.
But it’s normal to think about it. Chang'an City is too big. If no one leads the way outsiders, they will be afraid that they will not be able to understand the roads in the city even if they spend a month.
"The villain is the coachman in the city. Because he is familiar with the situation in Chang'an, he dares to guide the way for all the immortal masters." Guan Fengchao pointed at the side of the road.
There was a carriage parked there, much smaller than an ordinary carriage, and it could only ride one or two people.
"How do you charge?" Chen Luo glanced at the carriage, quickly retracted his gaze and asked.
"If you don't have much work for seniors, you only need two taels of silver to finish it in one day. If it exceeds one day, you will charge two taels a day." Guan Feng stretched out his two fingers and said.
"Since you are so confident in your own knowledge, then I will hire you. If you can lead a good road, your reward will be indispensable. But if I find that you are making trouble, this stone will end up with you." Chen Luo raised his foot and put a little on a stone by the side of the road.
A blue light flashed, and the stone cracked in half with a "click".
When Guan Feng saw this scene, a hint of horror flashed across his face, and he promised that he would not.
"Go to Changpingfang, west of the city first." Chen Luo walked to the side of the road, jumped into Guan Feng's carriage, and ordered lightly.
He made an appointment with Xie Yuxin to meet here. He arrived more than a month earlier than planned. I wonder if Xie Yuxin has arrived.
Guan Feng hurriedly agreed and drove forward.
Sitting in the car, looking around.
The layout of Chang'an City is different from that of Jianye City and Chunhua County. There are many roads in the city and very neatly. All main roads are straight south and north, or cross east and west, intersecting each other.
The spacing between these main roads is the same. If you look at it from a high altitude, these roads are like horizontal lines on a Go board, dividing the entire Chang'an City into extremely neat areas.
