Chapter 1,100 I know Jiajing is in a hurry, but let him not be anxious yet
"Drive! Drive!"
The city gates of Hangzhou opened wide, and fast horses galloped in.
Looking at the messenger on horseback, the people looked sideways: "The capital has come to invite Dr. Li again!"
Some merchants recognized the difference between different messengers and smiled happily: "In the morning, they deliver to the shipping office, in the afternoon they rush to the shop, and Shui Ma Post sends messages all the time. The four directions gather together, and the Japanese invasion has subsided. Recently, business in Zhejiang has become better and better."
,Thanks to Dr. Li!"
The Ming Dynasty was the culmination of the development of post stations in China. The various systems and methods accumulated by the previous dynasties were basically perfected, and various routes also tended to be rationalized and networked. Starting from Zhu Yuanzhang's order to establish the post office institutions, the five hundred systems of the Ming and Qing dynasties were followed.
Year.
This organization is roughly divided into Shuimayi, delivery office and express delivery shop.
Water horse stations can be subdivided into water stations and horse stations. Water stations are basically distributed along the Yangtze River, canals and other important rivers. They are mostly used in the south of the Yangtze River, while horse stations are spread all over the country. The two complement each other; the delivery station is mainly responsible for transporting people.
supplies and tributes; the express delivery shop is responsible for delivering official documents and letters.
Although it seems complicated, it is still simplified compared to the Yuan Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, there were water stations, horse stations, railway stations, donkey stations, dog stations, etc. In the Yuan Zaju version of Journey to the West, Tang Monk left Chang'an, and before he got the dragon and horse, he followed the postman.
While chatting, we talked about horse, cattle, donkey and dog stations, which are all distinctive features of the Yuan Dynasty and have nothing to do with Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty's Hundred Chapters of Journey to the West, these are naturally not used, and then replaced with contemporary Ming Dynasty
feature.
Not to mention the characteristics of each dynasty, the large and efficient post stations all supported a large number of postmen. Later, Chongzhen laid off 30% of its staff, causing one postman to lose his job. He raised his arms and gathered people to rebel. That person was Li Zicheng.
Now Li Zicheng would have to wait fifty years before he was born. The postmen in the Jiangnan area were busy receiving the messengers rushing from the capital to Hangzhou, Zhejiang in batches. They traveled by land and water, and several messages could be delivered in a day.
At first, the people of Hangzhou regarded it as a curiosity, but now they have adapted to it, but there is a sense of pride in their voices, and they go to the Earth Temple and the Dragon Temple to offer sacrifices and burn incense.
And the messenger galloped all the way, not going to the Hangzhou Yamen, but directly to the tea house outside the East Wall Courtyard. When he got to the door, he got off his horse and was greeted by the guards in golden clothes.
Jin Yiwei took the letter skillfully and hurried upstairs to Zhu Zhong, who ranked second among the thirteen Taibao of Jin Yiwei: "Second Master, there is another urgent message from the capital."
Although there was already a thick stack of letters in his hand, Zhu Zhong was not impatient at all. He opened the letter and took a closer look, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The Governor is really coming to Hangzhou!"
"Is Governor Lu coming?"
The tall, burly, beautiful beard, eager for justice, and the most protective of his subordinates came to mind. The Jin Yiwei present suddenly showed expressions of respect and expectation.
Just thinking about the current situation, they became nervous again: "Second Master, Divine Doctor Li has not left yet, are we..."
Zhu Zhong raised his hand to stop what he was saying, and said calmly: "We'll wait for Master Twelve to come back first."
Half an hour later, footsteps sounded, and Zhu Twelve walked in. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he knew that there must be important news from the capital: "Second brother, is there another urging from the capital?"
Zhu Zhong did not answer but asked: "What is Dr. Li doing?"...
Zhu Twelve said: "Sitting in the clinic, refining elixirs, practicing cultivation, this person who entered the Dragon Palace, cured the real dragon, suppressed ghosts, and his life can actually return to the past. It has to be admired. Let's look at the little heavenly master who immediately rushed back to the capital to claim credit...
Tsk!"
Before it was changed, Zhu Zhong would still tell him not to be too biased in his words, but now it is no longer necessary. He sighed softly: "The governor is coming!"
Zhu Twelve's expression changed: "Then if Mr. Li is unwilling, can the Governor please move?"
In the past, this question would not have been asked at all. With the power of Jin Yiwei in charge of the security affairs, who would dare not give face to him, but after experiencing Donghai and his party, and witnessing those miracles, the Thirteen Taibao was not sure.
The key is that Governor Lu personally went out for one reason. Long live the Lord just couldn't wait any longer. As a result, he stayed in Hangzhou, living in seclusion and living in poverty...
Living in peace and quiet, I feel that I am living a very fulfilling life and practice hard.
He is really working hard. From the time he entered the world to the present, he has been practicing diligently and his attributes have been improving.
This is actually the benefit of the mythical world. Even if the mortal world also has a limit of 30 points, the five basic attributes of the Tang Dynasty world can only rely on achievement points and cannot be self-improved.
Now in the world of Journey to the West, after this period of practice, in addition to his luck, his four major attributes have improved.
Family background is the most interesting. Li Shizhen was born in a medical family. His father and ancestors were practicing medicine, but the status of ordinary doctors was not high, so he originally only had 5 points, which was among the top among ordinary people. Now it has been increased to 7 points, because of the achievements he brought
The influence has caused the doctor's status to also change, which is why this improvement was achieved.
The physical constitution was originally 10 points, but it has been raised to 14 points. After extracting 1 physical point from the Ten Palaces of Yama, it was successfully reached to 15 points.
Wisdom rises faster. After all, the golden elixir avenue in this world is the most important spiritual wisdom. His method of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth was also learned through hard work in the world of Water Margin. It has been raised from 14 points to 19 points.
In the process of cultivation, his appearance has improved, even to the greatest degree. This should be related to the fact that he has eliminated the dirty air most cleanly and absorbed all the power of pure spirit. It has reached 22 points from 18 points.
Of course, in this world, 22 points is still far from the limit of self-improvement. With the improvement of Jindan Dao, Li Yan believes that he can rely on his own practice to reach the mundane limit of 30 points.
But that time was slower.
His plan is two kinds of efforts that complement each other. Strong cultivation can improve attributes, and the improvement of attributes can also make cultivation faster.
Therefore, after having a basic understanding of this world, coupled with the disappearance of gods and Buddhas, the enemy is still very powerful and cannot be used sparingly.

Use 5500 achievement points to increase wisdom to 25 points.
Even so, there are still plenty of achievement points, which can be replenished at any time depending on the situation...
Because in terms of fame, in addition to opening up a path to fame in the underworld, the name of Taoist medicine has spread throughout the five southeastern provinces, and has also begun to become famous in the Ming Dynasty.

【Achievement Points:】
…
Li Yan is quite satisfied with the current state of achievement points, and his strength will also enter a period of improvement. The alchemy furnace obtained from the West Sea Dragon Palace is of extremely high quality, and he will become more and more comfortable in refining alchemy.
Seeing that another batch of elixirs was about to be completed, Tao Yin's voice came from outside the elixir room: "Young Master, Taoist Chongxu, Taoist Tanyang and Taoist Yuxuan are here to pay their respects."
Li Yan said: "Please wait for them to drink tea."
Half a quarter of an hour later, the alchemy furnace vibrated slightly. Li Yan stretched out his hand and pulled, and a round and flawless elixir flew out and fell into the jade bottle.
The little turtle slowly crawled over, held up the bottle skillfully, and crawled out slowly.
Li Yanguan looked after him and said, "The spiritual power in He'er's body is still overflowing. I can only feed him one pill these days."
The little turtle nodded slowly.
Recently, as the breeder of the spirit crane, it has become quite handy. When the particularly greedy crane wanted to take the elixir, neither Tao Yin nor Chi Lian could hold it down. Only the turtle leaned forward and immediately became submissive.
Stop being greedy and start digesting the spiritual energy accumulated in your body.
With this little helper, Li Yan no longer cared about the matters in the alchemy room. He came to the main hall, stood up three times, and greeted each other.
We had a lot of contact with each other during this period, so there was no need to be polite. Yuxuanzi was the first to take out something: "Here is the document on the renovation of the treasure ship. Please take a look at it, sir."
Li Yan looked at it carefully, nodded and said: "I am a layman when it comes to weapon refining, but I can still feel the Taoist Master's hard work. Thank you very much!"
Tan Yangzi smiled and said: "Sir, what you said is a bit exaggerated. Our two factions have received so much favor, but a mere treasure ship, what does it mean?"
This time we went to sea to exterminate the Japanese pirates, the ordinary war was actually very difficult to describe. It was Wang Zhi's businessman's thinking. After all, he did not dare to kill them all and stopped midway, so that the defeat was not too ugly...
The key point is that this expedition against Japanese pirates was ordered by Jiajing himself. It was difficult to explain at first, but in the end Chaotian Palace and Shen Guanglan defeated the Japanese practitioners and undoubtedly reported it as a victory.
Jiajing Longyan was very happy and specially commended these two royal Taoist temples, which had gradually lost their sense of existence, with great pride...
Favors are hard to repay, especially to those who are cultivators. The two factions have made great efforts to renovate the Kagura Treasure Ship this time.
Li Yan is also planning to own a car, which does not require too many functions. It can be used for living, refining elixirs, practicing cultivation, and it can go to heaven and sea.
He is also very interested in weapon spirits. The wish-fulfilling orb is difficult to transform, but the Kagura treasure ship can be used as an attempt.
Talking about the weapon spirit, Tan Yangzi's face darkened slightly, and anger showed on his eyebrows: "It's a pity that Bachi Jing escaped. There is something really unexpected about this Japanese artifact. I still haven't figured out how to escape.
It really makes me feel aggrieved."
There was a hint of worry in Chong Xuzi's eyes, and Li Yan also expressed concern: "Taoist master, be careful of the wrathful calamity..."
Tan Yangzi waved his hand: "Nine tribulations are impossible to prevent, so why not face them calmly? It will come when it comes. Fear is useless!"
Her words were very free and easy, but there was still a subtle tremor in her voice, which showed that she was not as fearless as she appeared on the surface.
The power of the nine tribulations really makes every cultivator feel like they are stuck in the throat, especially those who are more advanced in their cultivation, the greater the possibility of suffering tribulations.
When Li Yan first met Tao Zhongwen's two disciples, Guo Hongjing and Wang Yongning, he found that their cultivation was shallow and he felt that they were not worthy of being the direct descendants of the Heavenly Master.
But after understanding the situation of the Nine Tribulations, I realized that the other party may have done it deliberately. He did not seek great achievements, but only wanted to live a stable life, be able to associate with ordinary predecessors, and be stable and wealthy.
Whether it was his own possibility of overcoming the disaster or the friendship he had fought side by side before, Li Yan had already made plans: "There are ways to escape from the three disasters, and there are countermeasures to the nine disasters. I am willing to do my best to do this."
Tanyangzi showed a look of expectation, Yuxuanzi was overjoyed, and even said to Xuzi: "Each faction also has its own method of exploring the Nine Tribulations. You can discuss it with Sir!"
Li Yan said: "That couldn't be better."
The four of them started talking about the Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations. They talked for a full hour. When they finally came to an end, they said to Xuzi: "We are here under the entrustment of the Jinyi Guards and want to invite you to the capital. Your Majesty is looking forward to meeting Long."
Female, I’m even more looking forward to meeting my husband..."
Li Yan paused after hearing this: "You three, please follow me."
The four of them came to the backyard and outside a room. Chong Xuzi did not come forward.
Tan Yangzi and Yuxuanzi looked inside and saw a woman in palace clothes lying on the table, her crystal clear dragon horns shaking gently, and murmuring: "I'm so hungry, so hungry, so hungry. I'm so hungry."
So hungry..."
Tanyangzi was stunned, while Yuxuanzi suddenly realized: "Ah! Is the Dragon Girl not adapted to this secular place?"
Li Yan nodded: "Immortals eat wind and drink dew, and do not eat the fireworks of the world. They can live forever, but they are in the blessed land of cave heaven and exist as spiritual energy."
"Nowadays, the place where the Dragon Girl lives is no longer Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea or the Dragon Palace in the West Sea, but the living world, a filthy place where heaven and earth are. What to eat every day has become a big problem."
"I have refined a batch of elixirs these days, but in my opinion they are extremely pure elixirs. In the eyes of the dragon girl, they are still very impurities, and I am still looking for a solution..."
Tan Yangzi said: "The blessed land spiritual area within our sect is incomparable to the cave heaven blessed land of gods and Buddhas. Your alchemy technique is a restoration of the ancient sect. If it cannot meet the needs of the dragon girl, then we will not be able to do it!"
"
Chong Xuzi also frowned, and Yuxuanzi had no choice.
Li Yandan said calmly: "For ordinary people, the revival of Shinto means that they have the protection of gods and Buddhas. For Long Live, it means that there is a real hope of eternal life. However, this matter still has to wait, and there is no need to be impatient...
…”
The three Taoist priests looked at each other.
I know Jiajing is in a hurry, but I tell the emperor not to be anxious yet.
