As night falls, many restaurants and shops gradually close their doors, and the crowds become less and less crowded.
Only in one place, as night falls, red candles begin to be lit, the chirping of orioles continues, and the voices of people gradually reach a climax.
People were coming and going in front of the door, and there was a lot of traffic.
Far away from here, you can smell a strong smell of powder.
Zhang Mingtu raised his head and let out a breath, his eyes flashed as he looked at the three words Yihonglou illuminated by the candlelight.
As one of the areas with developed commerce and trade, the land of fireworks is naturally prosperous. Although it is not as good as Yangzhou where the spring breeze is ten miles away, it is not much better than areas like Jianyi.
Moreover, there are many thin horses in Yangzhou. It can be said that all prosperous places have something in common.
And one of the key intelligence nodes given by the future brother is the place of fireworks at the end of Jiujiang, Yihongyuan.
The oiran of Yihongyuan, known as the jade-faced fox, is from the Land of the Rising Sun.
As long as she doesn't take the initiative to reveal her identity, others will have no idea.
Indeed, who would think that the everyday characters from the Land of the Rising Sun, who have crooked melons and jujubes, short legs and thick waists, and the charming beauties with skin as thick as gelatin and a temperament as enchanting as a fox, are the people of the Land of the Rising Sun.
It has a great reputation in Yihonglou and is quite outstanding.
He was even known as a performer but not a prostitute, and many of the children of princes and nobles fell under his pomegranate skirt. He was the most outstanding oiran in Yihong Courtyard in recent years.
He is the number one among the top. No one would associate such a character with the people from the Land of the Rising Sun. It can be said that he has absolutely no resemblance to the characters from the Land of the Rising Sun.
In fact, such characters seem to be the opposite of the characters in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Apart from being in a brothel together, the two have nothing in common. No one could have imagined that this man would be one of the outstanding figures in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Its achievements are considered outstanding in Jiujiang County and even the entire Jiangnan West Road.
Of course, the most important thing is that the person behind Yihongyuan really controls the entire Yihongyuan and the famous gold-selling cave in Jiujiang County.
With Yihongyuan Street as the center, there are all related restaurants and casinos. As long as you have money, you can enjoy the bliss of the world here. It can be called a happy forest.
In such the most prosperous area, many dark areas will naturally spawn, corresponding underground black markets and intelligence trading centers.
Porn, gambling, and drugs have always been the most obsessed with people. After all, it is not just Hong Shixian who pursues excitement, but many people pursue this.
The higher the status, the more comfortable and comfortable the person is, the more likely they are to pursue these stimulations.
Zhang Mingtu stood quietly in the shadow of Yihongyuan, watching people from all walks of life walking outside the gate of Yihongyuan.
Among them there are figures who look like princes from aristocratic families who are dressed in luxurious clothes, and there are also figures who are wearing close-fitting shorts and dressed as knights in the martial arts world.
At the same time, the coachman and dockworker who smelled of sweat would walk again, but they were not going to the rather luxurious Yihongyuan, but to the cheaper prostitutes near Yihongyuan street.
Survival and reproduction are something engraved in human bones and are simply difficult to remove.
When you are full and warm, you think about lust, the ancients said it very clearly.
Even people who are depressed every day will have such needs.
In this prosperous place of commerce, as long as there is demand, such business will naturally flourish.
And the pinnacle of prosperity here is Yihongyuan, the jade-faced fox.
As a corn fox, he is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has first-class skills and abilities.
She seduced a big shot in Jiujiang County with her beauty, so she was able to acquire a huge street in Jiujiang County where land was so valuable, and many related businesses came into being.
People from various religions and professions would naturally build a special dark market to exchange information here.
The owner of the underground world does not need to work hard to find out the information, as long as she can manage the place well and hand over enough wealth here to her backer.
All kinds of news in the ghost market will naturally be reported to him, and these news from three religions and nine streams will be passed on by her.
Of course, he would wholeheartedly hand over this part of the information to her backer, and at the same time, he would not prevent her from submitting this information to the people related to the Land of the Rising Sun, so that they could better benefit from it.
"Compared to Jianyi, such a city is larger, more prosperous, and the rules of the game are more complex, but its underlying logic remains unchanged."
Zhang Mingtu watched everything that happened in the darkness.
In the casino, some people laughed wildly, their faces glowing red, and they put a lot of chips in their arms, while others were lost and dejected.
In the Yihong Courtyard, the chirping of warblers and swallows continued, and the scent of powder wafted far away. As the red candles flickered, the enchanting figure reflected on the window paper made people blush, their ears red, and their hearts beating.
Any place here can make people have intense mood swings and high desires.
Zhang Mingtu even saw many colleagues of Jinyiwei among them. They changed into their daily clothes and changed their appearance. During this period, they were not as serious as they were at work during the day, and their faces were full of smiles.
In this rolling world of mortals, Zhang Mingtu had no rising desires in his heart, and his heart felt clear and clear.
Being in such an environment allowed him to quickly get rid of the strange state in the book of life and death where he regarded all living beings as stupid dogs.
The lives inside the Book of Life and Death are all extremely glorious, with sages and sages talking and laughing, and no one in vain coming and going.
After many consecutive experiences, Zhang Mingtu gradually discovered that his character was a bit close to indifferent.
Originally, when he came to the vicinity of Yihongyuan, Zhang Mingtu planned to find an opportunity to attack the secret controller of Yihongyuan and obtain a large amount of resources for cultivation from his hands.
But after arriving here, Zhang Mingtu gradually realized that something was wrong with him. In such a lively and bustling environment, he still couldn't help having too many strong fluctuations in his heart.
"This state is not good. There is something wrong with my state of mind..."
At any rate, Zhang Mingtu will have a brother who becomes a Martial Saint in the future. Although it was only for a short moment, he was once a Martial Saint at the top and had a wide range of knowledge.
After arriving here, he found that his heart was still calm, and Zhang Mingtu immediately discovered the problem keenly.
"I have experienced too much destiny criticism from the Book of Life and Death. Even if the Book of Life and Death filters me out, the deep imprint of Brother Future will inevitably leave some traces on me."
Originally, when the level of strength was low-risk, this situation was not obvious. After all, when the strength was low-risk, you would die if something unexpected happened.
But as Zhang Mingtu becomes stronger and stronger, and his realm becomes higher and higher, his corresponding status will also be very high, and it will be very difficult for him to die.
Even with Zhang Mingtu's character who often seeks death, and with his current profound accumulation, it would be difficult for him to die. Instead, he would compose a legend.
After realizing something was wrong, Zhang Mingtu did not enter Yihongyuan immediately. Instead, he hid in the dark shadows and interrogated himself.
Having had a brief experience as a martial artist, even if it was only for a moment, Zhang Mingtu felt that he was very different from before and could detect the most subtle changes in his body.
"The pressure on the physical body is not too great, the real pressure is on the soul..."
After a brief induction, Zhang Mingtu discovered the situation inside Yuanshen.
His Yuan Shen is far more powerful than those in the same realm, but he can feel a deep fatigue from within his Yuan Shen.
Zhang Mingtu was not familiar with this state, but his future brothers were very familiar with it. This was a state in which the soul could not carry its own huge memory.
This state often appears in those reincarnated characters.
Because before the reincarnation, the realm of strength was actually extremely strong, and the memory of a lifetime was too huge.
If the memory is awakened in the reincarnated child at a young age, it is very likely that the child in that early age will directly develop dementia.
In more serious cases, his head may even explode and he may die on the spot.
That's because the physical mind cannot bear such a huge amount of information, and Zhang Mingtu is in such a situation now.
Zhang Mingtu even felt the signs of aging in his own soul.
At this moment, Zhang Mingtu had a clear understanding in his heart.
"It turns out that the book of life and death is not free."
If you want to wear a crown, you must first bear its weight.
Perhaps for those big figures in mythology, using the Book of Life and Death to carry the fate of everyone in the world and record their past and future is not a problem.
Life and death are not only used as a recording tool, but in the case of Zhang Mingtu, if he uses the book of life and death to peek into his own destiny too many times, it will be affected to a certain extent.
"It needs to calm down slowly, but the impact is not too big."
Zhang Mingtu carefully assessed his own situation.
Because the soul carries too many memories, Zhang Mingtu is not very interested in many things around him. He doesn't care much about most things that can make people blush and lust.
This situation is not good.
"But the problem is not that big. It's because my current level of strength is not high enough, so I can't carry too much. If my level of strength reaches a higher level and my soul becomes stronger, it will naturally return to its original state."
In the final analysis, I am too weak.
At the same time, many of the imprints of the future are showing on my body. At such a young age, I feel like I have seen through the world of mortals and am about to become a monk.
"Damn, it seems that in the next round of destiny deduction in the book of life and death, we must find an extremely high-spirited experience in life to offset it. Now I really feel calm..."
Zhang Mingtu took another look at the various figures reflected on the windowsill in the red candles of Yihongyuan, and listened to the blushing sounds there, but his heart still didn't fluctuate much.
Zhang Mingtu had no choice but to sit cross-legged in the shadows, quietly watching the rolling dust, and at the same time silently looking at the last key part recorded in the Book of Life and Death.
Well, the brother who became a Martial Saint was seriously injured most of the time after becoming a Martial Saint, and might die at any time, but the wealth he left behind was not bad at all, and could even be said to be top-notch.
In Shiwanda Mountain, in a corner that no one knows, little by little, we deduce the past, the magical skills that we have practiced, and little by little we implement the plan that Zhang Mingtu had made before.
He perfected the methods of fellow practitioners in the five supreme magical skills and found the path that is most suitable for Zhang Mingtu himself.
Zhang Mingtu has received guidance from many people on this point, whether it is Zen Master Kurong or Yu Zhifu, who became a martial arts queen.
They all had a clear understanding of Zhang Mingtu's path and thought it would be difficult for Zhang Mingtu to follow it. Of course, they still gave their own practical suggestions.
But the path given by others is ultimately given by others and not as good as Zhang Mingtu's own thinking. No one in the world knows his own body and corresponding conditions better than Zhang Mingtu.
Zhang Mingtu wants to become a Martial Saint this time because he wants to sort out his own path from the perspective of the Martial Saint realm and find his own path.
It can be said that Zhang Mingtu’s spiritual path is different from anyone else’s spiritual path in the world, and can even be said to be strange.
Both Yu Zhifu and Zen Master Kurong learned from the paths of their predecessors in their early years of practice, sorted out their own status based on their predecessors, and then continued to move forward to reach a height that belongs to them.
Only when they reach a high enough altitude can they understand the detours they took during their practice. But by the time they understand, the detours have already been taken and it is impossible to repeat them.
They can only use their own experience for the next generation, so that their next generation of characters and their disciples will not take these detours.
Zhang Mingtu, on the other hand, stands on his own body and on the shoulders of his future self and keeps moving forward.
Since his predecessors took the wrong path, he will definitely not make mistakes when he walks.
Standing on the shoulders of those who came before us, we are destined to lead a glorious path.
"Six Paths of Reincarnation..."
Zhang Mingtu looked at the words that appeared on the book of life and death, and the corner of his mouth twitched, feeling a little weird.
He himself has a book of life and death, and now this future brother has created a so-called six paths of reincarnation.
This name inexplicably reminded him of something.
However, although the name gave Zhang Mingtu a great desire to complain, the content inside made Zhang Mingtu nod his head, feeling suddenly cheerful.
Fellow practitioners of the five most powerful magical arts, their best state is also the most ideal state in legends. They should combine the strongest points of the five magical arts to become the most powerful person in the world.
But in fact, this road is very awkward and difficult to navigate.
The founders of different Shengong have completely different ideas, and their strengths are also different. Many aspects contradict and conflict with each other, just like the famous requirement of Party A, which requires a colorful black.
Zhang Mingtu's future brother, who had been seriously injured for many years and was unable to practice, spent most of his time thinking about this issue.
Consider how to balance the five magical powers and how to organize yourself using the realm of the martial saint level.
Zhang Mingtu couldn't figure it out in his current state, but the future brother did come up with a solution.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation is the answer given by that brother.
