Chapter 467 There are no gods and Buddhas in the world!
In the teahouse opposite Yunbai Xiaoxiu, the old shopkeeper opened the door early in the morning. He just stretched half of his body and was stunned. He looked at the opposite person with a look of astonishment and even sniffed subconsciously.
In the fresh morning air, he smelled a strong floral fragrance. The old shopkeeper was not too old to distinguish things clearly, and it was clearly the fragrance of plum blossoms.
The problem is wrong, it is late spring now, and the plum blossoms are not blooming in this season at all!
'I definitely smelled it right. The fragrance of plum blossoms is coming from the Yunbai Xiaoxiu backyard opposite...'
With this in mind, the old teahouse owner turned around and asked the busy waiter who got up early: "Xiao Lin, come here and smell it, can you smell the fragrance of plum blossoms?"
Xiao Lin, who was wiping the tables and chairs, heard this. Although he didn't understand why the shopkeeper said this, he still put down his work and came over to do what he was told. Not to mention, he also smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms.
"Uh, shopkeeper, this floral smell seems normal, but I always feel like something is wrong," Xiao Lin scratched his head and said.
The old shopkeeper knocked him on the head and said: "Of course it's wrong, the plum blossoms are not blooming in this season at all."
"Yes, yes, this is the wrong place, and the floral fragrance is not the smell of powder at all, it is a normal floral fragrance. I occasionally go to Red Romance, and the plum blossom scent of the lady there is not like this at all," Xiao Lin suddenly said, and also listed
Evidence description.
The old shopkeeper pondered for a moment and then glared: "You are running to Hong Kong and Romance at a young age? You are still so young and haven't even started a family yet, and you are messing around like this. How can you save money? How will you marry a wife in the future..."
"Shopkeeper, I made a mistake. I won't dare to go there again." Xiao Lin immediately apologized to the shopkeeper as he rambled on.
The fragrance of plum blossoms coming from behind Yunbai Xiaoxiu was so obvious that it attracted many people to stop early in the morning. This was a bit strange, after all, plum blossoms are not in bloom this season.
People were curious, but they didn't do anything rude like breaking into a house out of curiosity. It was like this at first, but if the news spread, it wouldn't necessarily be the case. There would always be people who wanted to find out what was going on out of curiosity.
In the backyard of Yunbai Xiaoxiu, it had been twelve days since Yunjing came to Nujiang City. Early in the morning, he was sitting under the plum blossom tree and was not interested in reading. He was holding a book in his hand, but his vision was a little wandering.
The plum tree has a thick mouth and is four to five meters high. Bai Zhi told him that there was a plum tree when he bought this small building. Bai Zhi did not dig it up, but kept it.
This season is not the time when plum blossoms are in bloom, but at this time, the trees are full of flowers. The pink petals bloom beautifully, complementing the green leaves, and the garden is filled with fragrance.
The reason why the plum trees bloom in this season is because Yunjing arranged a spiritual gathering array in the courtyard. Under the nourishment of spiritual energy, the plum trees glow with a second spring.
These are not the important points. Yunjing has no intention of admiring the scenery of the blooming plum trees. Instead, he is silently absorbing the spiritual energy that is constantly gathering to nourish his body.
Originally, Yunjing usually didn't need to set up a spirit gathering array to absorb spiritual energy. He could just absorb all the spiritual energy within the range of his telekinesis. However, now he has actually arranged a spirit gathering array. Don't ask, it just feels like his body is being hollowed out...
In fact, it's not that exaggerated. With his physique, how could he be drained out in just ten days? Most of it was psychological. Anyway, Yunjing felt that he needed to 'replenish'.
For more than ten days, he has been living here with Bai Zhi. He and Bai Zhi played around during the day and hugged each other at night, inevitably doing some exercise.
Ahem, Bai Zhi is a martial arts practitioner. She has a good figure, good flexibility, and can easily handle any difficult task. So what, Yun Jing took the initiative at first, but gradually, Bai Zhi actually took the initiative.
Then, I don't know which day it started, Yunjing arranged the spirit gathering array by accident, and he just stayed in the array when he had nothing to do, just to study with peace of mind.
"It turns out that what those married people said in the past life is true. Women are more proactive than men after marriage. In fact, this is not bad, but..." Yunjing, whose thoughts were wandering, was thinking about this.
What he meant was that he suddenly thought that a woman's initiative is not just temporary, but will take the initiative in the next few years and decades. Thinking of this, isn't it a bit 'creepy'?
No wonder, no wonder they say that when men reach their thirties, they often soak wolfberry in a thermos cup.
While Yun Jing was "thinking wildly", Bai Zhi came over in great confusion and did not come close. She even stopped three meters away. She said in a complicated tone: "Guan Ren...Guan Ren?"
"Xiao Bai, what are you doing?" Yun Jing, whose attention was called back, looked at Bai Zhi standing far away and asked in shock.
Bai Zhi lowered her head and said: "My lord, I can't get close to you these days, and I can't serve you anymore. I'm sorry, I..."
Yun Jing understood instantly and said in a deep voice: "Is that one coming?"
"Yeah", Bai Zhi nodded, and then said: "Guanren, I'm dirty these days and can't get close to you. I have to stay away from you as much as possible. I'm sorry."
At this time, Bai Zhi's heart was extremely complicated. Firstly, because of Tiankui, she could not be with Yunjing to take care of him and serve him. Secondly, they had been there so many times without any protective measures. Coming to Tiankui meant that
There is no 'winning bid'.
She didn't know whether to be disappointed or happy, but she was more worried. As a woman, if she couldn't continue to produce offspring for her man, what would happen if she was a concubine in this era. You can imagine how entangled Bai Zhi was.
Yunjing didn't think too much about it. They had only been together for more than ten days. It was normal for them not to be attacked. At this moment, Yunjing felt an inexplicable feeling of 'relief'...
Putting down the book, Yunjing stepped over and said with a smile: "I don't care, Xiaobai doesn't have to be like this. My husband understands. Eat more nourishing food these days, don't touch cold water, and have a good rest..."
As he walked over to Yunjing, he expressed concern with the so-called "experience".
Unexpectedly, Bai Zhi hurriedly stepped back like a frightened rabbit to distance the two parties, shook her head and said: "Master, please don't come over!"
"Xiaobai, you..." Yunjing was really stunned. Why did she react so violently? No, it's just a normal physiological reaction of a girl. It shouldn't be the time when she needs care.
Seeing Yun Jing's look of astonishment, Bai Zhi said anxiously: "Guardian, please, please don't come over. I've been dirty these days. If you come over, it will bring you bad luck. Please, please."
I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
So that was what happened, Yun Jing understood.
Women in this era regard Tiankui as a "demon" and think it is the dirtiest thing in the world. In this case, they think it will bring bad luck to the people around them, so they will try their best to stay away from people around them during this period.
, let alone sleeping together, even in daily life, try to stay away from each other and avoid contact.
In Yunjing's view, this mentality is 'feudal superstition', but people in this era firmly believe it. Let alone women, even men will try their best to stay away from women during their menstrual period. No matter how beautiful a woman is at this time,
Will be disliked by most men.
After thinking about it, Yun Jing said: "Okay, okay, I won't go there."
"Well, sir, I'm going back to my house. I'm sorry, I can't accompany you these days. I'll move out later and come back when I'm ready." Bai Zhi backed away gently.
Yunjing said quickly: "No, I understand what you mean, Xiaobai. If you move out, what's the difference between your husband kicking you out of the house? Then what will happen to me? So just relax, I'll move out."
"
Things that seemed normal in Yunjing's previous life, people in this era shun them like monsters. Although he really wants to say that it is not necessary, he thinks it is better to abide by the universal customs of this world. After all, Bai Zhi's
Even if she doesn't care about her reaction, she won't agree to it. It might even cause a 'psychological shadow' on her. For example, she always feels that it has brought bad luck to Yunjing and is always in fear. How can she live her life then?
Yunjing didn't pay attention to this in the past, but now that he thinks about it, this situation is everywhere. For example, many women in the village always live alone on one side for several days a month...
"Official, how can I let you move out? What will happen to me? I deserve to be beaten to death. It's better for me to move out, please," Bai Zhi begged.
Yunjing was troubled, and after thinking about it, he took on the attitude of the head of the family and said, "How about this, you still live in the original house, and I live in the attic above the facade? Be obedient."
"Okay then..." Seeing Yunjing's serious face, Bai Zhi stopped insisting.
Smiling, Yunjing said: "That's right, Xiaobai, you go and have a rest. I'll ask Xiao Song to go to Tingtao Pavilion to buy some food later. It's been like this for the past few days, so you don't have to work anymore."
Bai Zhi was obedient. In fact, she was a little relieved. She was afraid that Yun Jing would leave in disgust. After all, Yun Jing was still on his way to the state capital to take the exam.
In the next few days, Yunjing and Bai Zhi lived a separate life, and their "beautiful entangled feelings" were no longer entangled, so they put aside their "worries" and read and study with peace of mind.
In the past few days, because the plum blossoms in the yard were blooming beautifully, there were more and more curious people around the store. Anyway, there was no need to worry about something, so Yunjing simply removed the spirit gathering array and dealt with the blooming plum blossoms.
, gradually calmed down this time.
Yunjing already knew about Youxiao's surrender and being imprisoned, so he was not surprised at all. In fact, if Youxiao wasn't so self-conscious, Yunjing wouldn't mind spending some effort to make him suffer. The final result would be
Same.
Secondly, during this period, the warning about the appearance of strange beasts in the Li River has been widely spread, and it has attracted many people. Now there are people everywhere on the edge of the Li River looking for traces of strange beasts, and they all want to show off their skills and make a name for themselves. Unfortunately,
No one has ever been able to find traces of the strange beast.
The five young talents who stood out in Nujiang City that day heard the news that they would also set off to the state capital together in the near future to compete again.
As time goes by, the Dali Dynasty's imperial examination is getting closer and closer. However, there are still a few months to go. The real examination will definitely take place after the battle between the four great talents. For Yunjing, there is still time.
Very sufficient.
After living apart for a few days, she probably felt a 'debt' in her heart and wanted to compensate Yunjing. In short, Bai Zhi was very proactive and enthusiastic after living together again, so much so that Yunjing was actually a little 'scared'...
Another early morning, Yun Jing rubbed his waist and walked out of the door. Looking at the rising sun in the sky, a thought suddenly popped into his mind, this can't go on!
"Why does something that every man dreams of become so scary?"
Thoughts flashed in his mind, Yun Jing felt that it was time to start his journey to the state capital again to take the exam. At the Tomb of Heroes of Wenwen Township, people must learn to exercise restraint. A knife on the head of lust can cut invisible at the fatal place.
Set off to continue taking the exam. This was business. When I mentioned it to Bai Zhi, she had no objection at all. On the contrary, she was afraid of delaying Yun Jing's business.
Originally Yunjing was afraid of neglecting her, so he suggested that if Bai Zhi wanted to go to the state capital together, Bai Zhi refused, with a very good reason, saying that if he went with her, Yunjing might not be interested in studying for the imperial examination.
Delaying Yunjing's future would be a huge sin for her.
Therefore, Bai Zhi will still stay in Nujiang City and wait for Yun Jing here.
The sadness of parting is always sad, especially for this newlywed couple. On the day of separation, Bai Zhi sent Yun Jing thirty miles away, which made Yun Jing not want to leave. In the end, she was cruel
I turned around and left, agreeing to take time to gather together every ten days and a half. Since I can fly, it is very convenient.
After bidding farewell to Yun Jing, Bai Zhi returned to Nujiang City with an empty mood. Facing the empty yard, she thought of the scene of getting along with Yun Jing. Now she was alone, and she felt lonely for a moment.
Even if the little sister came to see her, she couldn't get rid of this feeling.
Some time ago, strange beasts appeared in the Li River, and there was competition among young talents. Faced with these eye-catching things, Bai Zhi's little sisters had no time to come to her, so they missed the opportunity to meet Bai Zhi's sweetheart Yun Jing.
It makes Bai Zhi’s little sisters feel very depressed.
When Bai Zhi's little sisters were chatting with her, in addition to mentioning recent events, they also told a widely circulated story about a very unlucky person who was called a master in the early stages of his congenital life.
A situation in which a mid-term congenital hunter had a near-death situation, but something went wrong. The mid-term congenital strongman who was chasing the unlucky guy was plotted against by his enemies who came out. On his deathbed, he actually reconciled with the unlucky guy and repaired his whole body.
The blame was passed on to the unlucky guy, and he was asked to help him get revenge, and he even swore a poisonous oath.
Regarding this news, Bai Zhi's mind only accidentally flashed to the figure of Yang Feng she saw when she was with Yun Jing that day. She just made a bizarre comment and paid no more attention to it.
She didn't care about the world, so instead of thinking so much, she missed the days with Yun Jing even more...
That unlucky guy was indeed Yang Feng. He was targeted and hunted by a mid-term Xiantian master that day. After a period of time, he narrowly escaped death. In the end, the person who was chasing him was plotted by his enemies. When he was about to die, that person passed on his cultivation to
Yang Feng also helped Yang Feng open some acupuncture points, and even helped Yang Feng condense the innate true energy into true essence.
At this point, Yang Feng had achieved the middle stage of Xiantian by accident, but his life still could not calm down. After all, the old man's enemy had now become his enemy!
I don’t know if Yang Feng is lucky or not. He lives a peaceful life every day...
After separating from Bai Zhi, Yun Jing felt a little uncomfortable for a while after living together for so long, with so many first times in his mind.
On the oxcart, Yunjing couldn't even read a book because he couldn't lift his mood. He spent a lot of time in a daze.
"Friendship in this world is priceless. It's normal to be hard to leave. No matter how rational a person is, as long as he still has the emotion of being a human being, he can't adapt to this kind of thing all at once."
Although Yunjing tried to explain himself repeatedly, Yunjing still couldn't lift his mood for a short period of time.
There is only a few hundred miles between Nujiang City and Jiangzhou Prefecture. Since I was delayed for more than half a month in Nujiang City, the route of Yunjing will have to be adjusted accordingly. Song Yan can arrange these small things.
.
The capital of Jiangzhou is not on the other side of the Li River, so there is no need to cross the river, and there are no ferries or bridges to cross the river in that section of the river where the water is fierce. Of course, even if they want to cross the river, it would be difficult for Yunjing and the others.
It's not a difficult thing.
As he walked along the official road, Yunjing felt empty in his heart. Even though there were many people from the rivers and lakes coming and going for the strange beasts, he couldn't get excited.
After being separated from Bai Zhi for a day, Yun Jing finally got used to it, regained his calm mood, and devoted himself to reading and studying.
Maybe it was a mistake, but on the third day after Yunjing left Nujiang City, the impatient Su Xiaoye forced her father, Su Orion, to come out and wanted to go to the Lijiang River to search for traces of strange beasts.
It's not that Su Xiaoye wants to hunt down the alien beasts in public to make a name for herself, it's just for fun and to join in the fun. Both she and Su Orion have this self-knowledge. Are the alien beasts so easy to kill? I guess they can just sneeze.
The father and daughter were gone.
As a father, Su Orion was worried about his daughter running around, so he could only hold his nose and follow her.
All in all, the kind of Shura field where sparks hit the earth did not happen to Yunjing. Of course, Yunjing did not know that Su Xiaoye and his daughter would be attracted to the alien beast.
It is worth mentioning that the weather is gradually getting warmer. Whenever the weather is clear and clear, Su Xiaoye likes to wear a green hat made of willow branches, sometimes decorated with some flowers, and ask her father if it looks good.
"Dad, where are we going to find the strange beast? I heard it was a giant python, very big, and it first appeared in this place." Not far from the Wangtao Pavilion outside Nujiang City, Su Xiaoye, who was carrying a folded spear, looked at the rough waves.
The Lijiang River is full of enthusiasm.
She has jet black hair tied into a neat ponytail and wears a wicker hat. Her skin is not the delicate white texture of ordinary women, but rather wheat-colored. With her sweet appearance, she is agile and lively, like an eternal bird.
The little wild cat who can't even take a break.
After all, it has not been completely opened. Su Xiaoye's figure is not as plump as Bai Zhi, and it is not as big as Bai Zhi. Well, it is far from it. The silver leather armor outlines the girl's energetic figure, and the whole person looks very heroic.
Su Xiaoye looked at the Lijiang River curiously. There were many people in the Wangtao Pavilion who came for the exotic beasts. There was a mix of good and bad, but she did not go there.
Su Orion is a terrifying height of 2.23 meters. He has explosive muscles as dark and shiny as he is doing horizontal training, and he looks fierce with a big beard. Now that he is innate, he can withstand a broadsword like a door panel on his shoulders. Wherever he stops, he is extremely intimidating.
People, with a quick glance, those guys who were secretly looking at Su Xiaoye shuddered and looked away.
Next to Su Orion, Su Xiaoye was as petite as a chicken. No one believed that they were actually father and daughter. People seriously suspected that Su Orion was a villain, and some were even secretly thinking about whether to rescue Su Xiaoye.
, the premise is that before Su Xiaoye calls daddy out...
"You really want to find exotic beasts. Your little arms and legs are not enough to fill your teeth with exotic beasts. Listen to my father's advice and let's go home and don't get involved." Su Orion said speechlessly.
Having just arrived here, Su Orion clearly felt that several people were not weaker than him in cultivation. God knows how many people in the world who came here for the strange beasts were Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons?
With his daughter's out-of-the-box temperament, if a dispute arises, Su Orion feels that no matter how big he is, he may not be able to withstand it.
"No, daddy, it's a rare trip. It would be boring to go back like this. Besides, I will marry Brother Jing in two years, so I will rarely have this kind of freedom," Su Xiaoye said coquettishly.
You're out of town, and you're going back if you haven't had enough fun?
no way!
Su Orion's heart was filled with panic when he thought that his daughter, who had finally raised him, was going to get married. He also thought that his daughter would never be able to be so happy as a husband and child. Su Orion suddenly softened his heart and said, "Then let's make an agreement and let's go home."
Play, but you can’t cause trouble for me, otherwise I will knock you unconscious, take you back and tie you up with a chain, and I won’t let you run around again until you are beaten to death!”
"Okay, it's settled, daddy is the best," Su Xiaoye said coquettishly, humming in her heart asking daddy, are you willing to let me go? Besides, can an ordinary chain tie me down?
Knowing that she didn't listen, Su Orion was helpless and said: "Let's go and look elsewhere. If there is a strange beast here, it will have been discovered by someone long ago."
"That's right. Look at those people. From time to time, they plunge into the river. I guess this section of the water has been fully explored. Let's go and take a look elsewhere." Su Xiaoye said with deep understanding.
Just as they were about to leave, the father and daughter turned around and left.
However, not long after they walked, a young swordsman appeared in front of them blocking the way. The other party looked at Su Orion warily and said to Su Xiaoye: "Girl, have you met a bad person? If you are threatened, just blink. Don't be afraid.
, in broad daylight, how can we, the righteous men of the world, allow evil men to kidnap women and remain indifferent?"
Before Su Orion could speak, Su Xiaoye waved her hand and said: "Who are you? Go away. This is my father, not a villain. And I'm warning you, don't make any plans against me. I have been married to my husband since I was a child."
You are a scholar, you have a good reputation, and your inheritance is very important. If you dare to get distracted, be careful that my husband will deal with you!"
Young swordsman: "..."
Su Xiaoye didn't know what to say after what the sharp-tongued Su Xiaoye said. Her face suddenly turned red, she smiled awkwardly and walked away in despair.
He did have something on his mind, but before he could say anything, Su Xiaoye strangled him to death on the spot...
After the other party left, Su Xiaoye said to Su Orion: "Dad, am I right to say this?"
"That's right. When we go out and encounter similar situations, we have to inform them as soon as possible. Your brother Jing is a scholar and will not be easily provoked by people in the world. This can reduce a lot of trouble." Su Orion nodded.
Su Xiaoye smiled, thought for a moment and said, "But what if we meet that kind of reckless person?"
"Are we, father and daughter, vegetarians? Besides, your brother Jing's master is now a fourth-rank official and a popular person in the eyes of the emperor. If he encounters a difficult situation and goes to the government for help, who wouldn't give up his face?
"Su Orion grinned and said, even though he looks tall and thick, his mind is very delicate. He has a backing and he has to fight hard when things happen. He is stupid.
Why should we keep things private when it's a family matter?
"That's right, dad can see clearly," Su Xiaoye said with deep understanding.
"How about I be your father?"
"Then where should we go next? Upstream or downstream? The upstream is Jiangzhou, and the downstream... where is it coming from?"
"Let's go upstream. I haven't been to a big city for a long time. It's good to go to the big city if you can't find any strange beasts. It's time to start preparing some dowry for you."
"Oh, why are you talking about this? OK, let's go upstream..."
On the other side, Yunjing and Song Yan came to an interesting place at noon that day.
There is no village in front of it, no store in the back, but it is a large building courtyard located on the top of a hill with a beautiful environment.
What's interesting is that there are actually many people running to the courtyard on the mountain with their families, and they all look pious.
Looking at the courtyard on the mountain from a distance, Yun Jing's eyes flickered and he frowned slightly.
Under his observation, the courtyard on the mountain was somewhat similar to a temple and a Taoist temple. It was unknown what kind of being was worshiped in it. People who went there were all "burning incense and worshiping Buddha". That place was said to be "full of incense."
But the problem is that Yunjing can also be said to have learned a lot. He has communicated with the Master in the Myth Realm and even Liu Neng in the Xiaoyao Realm. Throughout history, there have never been records of gods and Buddhas in this world, so Taoist temples and the like
does not exist!
As far as Yunjing knows, people in this world worship sages and worship ancestors. In this case, what is the meaning of those who go to the mountains to burn incense and pray for blessings?
You can worship and worship your ancestors at home, so why come here all the way?
In particular, people looked pious and even fanatical. From Yunjing's perspective, it was no different that they were brainwashed. This was what caught his attention.
"There is something wrong with this place." This thought came to Yunjing's mind subconsciously. Just like the gang of gangsters he met earlier, he almost instinctively felt repelled and disgusted!
Song Yan noticed that Yun Jing frowned slightly and kept staring in that direction. He looked around and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Master, what are you looking at?"
Looking away, Yunjing said in deep thought: "Xiao Song, slow down, go to the front and find out why those people come to this place to burn incense and pray for blessings. Be sure to be more detailed."
"Okay, young master." Seeing Yun Jing's serious face, Song Yan replied and went over immediately.
As for Yunjing, when Song Yan went to inquire, he observed the buildings and people on the hilltop from a distance. The more he learned about it, the deeper his frown deepened.
People did go to burn incense and pray for blessings. There was a very strong religious atmosphere in the building on the hill...
Before this, Yunjing had never seen such a situation, never heard of it, and even the books he had read on countless places introducing local customs had no records of similar situations!
