The higher you go up the eastern capital, the more prosperous it becomes and the more dignitaries there are.
As Su Yun observed along the way, he saw that there were quite a lot of sexy people coming from overseas. Some came to do business, and some worked as private tutors for famous families.
Dongdu also treats Semu people preferentially, and Semu people are given priority in everything.
However, there are indeed some people in the Eastern Capital who hate the new learning because of their hatred of those with dirty eyes, and regard the new learning as heresy.
"I've only been here for a short time, so I can't see much."
Su Yun withdrew his gaze and said to himself: "Observe for a while longer."
They arrived at the fifth level of Yuhuang Mountain and stopped outside Xianliang Courtyard.
The chief registrar hurriedly came to greet them, registered their names and origins, and then led them to stay in Xianliangyuan. He arranged for them to stay in a small house and said, "Is this your first time in Beijing? There are a few things you need to know.
Instruct some adults."
Su Yun solemnly said: "Please speak."
The chief clerk said: "This is the foot of the emperor, not Shuofang. You must be careful. If you are not careful, you may offend anyone, let alone officials, and your life may be lost."
He raised a finger and said: "The first class of people who cannot be offended are the people with lustful eyes. The second class of people who cannot be offended are the officials of Dongdu. The third class of people who cannot be offended are the upper-class people of Dongdu.
.The upper class, even the sweepers, may be the fifth-rank officials of the Prime Minister's family, so be careful not to be punished! As for the people at the bottom of Dongdu, they don't have such scruples."
Su Yun thanked him and sent the chief clerk away.
Mr. Ye Luo said: "What the chief clerk said just now is right. To the people of Dongdu, we are just bumpkins from the countryside. Even officials who have made great achievements are looked down upon."
Li Muge asked curiously: "Brother Ye Luoshi, I heard that you lived in Dongdu for a period of time before. Did your habit of picking up leaks everywhere be developed in Dongdu?"
Mr. Ye Luo smiled bitterly and said: "I'm telling you seriously, don't make fun of me. Dongdu has gathered the most powerful families in Yuanshuo. The power of these families is beyond your imagination. It's easy to control your life or death! We are the same way.
Being born into a noble family can be considered powerful in the local area, but in the eastern capital, there are many noble families like the Li family and the Ye family! There are hundreds of people who surpass our family, so we must be careful!"
Su Yun didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "We didn't come to the East this time to cause trouble. Mu Ge and Zhuxian came to test the Tian Taoist Academy, Wutong, and Uncle Jiao came to absorb the demonic energy here to practice, and you and I came to meet the saint.
, Taoist Saint is here to deliver a message. Who would get into trouble if nothing happens?"
Mr. Ye Luo looked worried and said, "I hope nothing will happen."
Everyone settled down.
The Taoist sage smiled and said: "The old Taoist has Taoist temples in the east, so I won't bother you here. Farewell, farewell. Pavilion Master Su, if you have time, you can go to the Qingxu Temple of the old Taoist to taste tea."
Su Yun stood up to see him off. When he arrived outside Xianliang Courtyard, he suddenly heard someone beating gongs and drums, running around and shouting: "His Majesty the Emperor has changed his reign! His Majesty the Emperor has changed his reign!"
The Taoist Saint showed surprise, stopped, and murmured: "Change the year name? Isn't it the first day of the new year that the year name will be changed? It's almost summer, why should the year name be changed at this time?"
"His Majesty, the Emperor, has inherited the fortune of heaven, obtained the magical magic, and attained eternal life. He has changed the name of Yuan Shou to Yuan Shi! From this year on, it will be the first year of Yuan Shi!"
Su Yun and Tao Sheng couldn't help looking at each other when they saw people running around telling each other in the streets.
Young Master Ye Luo, Wu Tong and others heard the noise and came out to watch.
I saw a joyous atmosphere in the eastern capital, and people began to put up lights and streamers, waiting to celebrate.
"The demonic nature here is so abundant that it can condense into water." Wutong shrugged his nose and closed his eyes, his face full of intoxication.
In her Li Yuan, the billowing demonic energy vibrated endlessly, which was extremely terrifying.
The Taoist Saint had a worried look on his face and whispered: "In the first year of the Yuan Dynasty...hehe, does your Majesty plan to continue to sit on the throne and rule after becoming an immortal? It is enough to rule the world for thousands of generations.
One person may make the royal family restless, let alone other big families? The emperor's immortality may not be a good thing..."
"Old Taoist, this is exactly why the demonic nature grows stronger."
Wutong said quietly: "This is not caused by me, nor is it caused by my arrival. I was attracted by the evil spirit here. Don't reverse the cause and effect."
The Taoist Sage sighed and walked away.
Su Yun raised his head and looked at the highest point of the Eastern Capital, which was in the direction of the imperial palace. He said silently in his heart: "The magical magic? Could it be that Mr. Shui Jing taught the subsequent levels of Hong Lu's transformation to Di Ping and Xue
The saint also passed on the Seven-faced Tower to him?"
He immediately shook his head: "Impossible, these two are old foxes, they cannot be handed over directly, they must be kept to control the emperor. Besides, Saint Xue only has seven sides facing the sky, and the eighth side is in my hands..."
He suddenly laughed, shook his head, turned around and walked into Xianliangyuan, thinking: "Why should I ask about these things? The first thing I did when I came this time was to find the pen monster transformed by the team leader. The second thing
, just to meet my parents. As for other things, it has nothing to do with me!"
This time, Emperor Ping ordered him to come to the Eastern Capital to meet the Holy Spirit, and there was probably some kind of reward, but Su Yun didn't take it to heart at all.
He took out the wooden box and put it on the table, and gently pushed it. The wooden box vibrated slightly. On the ground outside Xianliang Courtyard, a piece of blue brick quietly changed when others were not paying attention, and a wooden box pattern appeared on the brick.
After Su Yun finished all this, he yawned. They traveled a long distance, and many geniuses came to Dongdu. They were all very tired, so they took a rest.
Late at night, Su Yun suddenly woke up and saw a paper figure squeezed in through the door and window under the moonlight. He stood on the window sill and bowed: "The master of the pavilion has given orders."
Su Yun looked at the little paper man in surprise, but still told the paper man Su Ye's information, saying: "Some people said that they came to Dongdu from Shuofang seven years ago, and Su Ye was arranged to study in an official school. You can find out.
?”
The paper man nodded and said: "This matter is simple. You only need to go to the Ministry of Accounts to find out. There is someone in Tongten Pavilion at the Ministry of Accounts."
Su Yun felt relieved and said: "One hundred and fifty years ago, Saint Cen from the Four Great Myths bought a pen monster. The pen monster should follow him in practice, not an anonymous person. The whereabouts of this pen monster
, also look for it.”
The person on the paper was called, left through the crack in the window and disappeared.
Su Yun sat down and lay down.
On the way, Tao Sheng told him about Uncle Cen's origins, but he didn't know much about the book monster transformed by the leading school brother, so he could only ask Tongtian Pavilion to find out the whereabouts of the leading school brother.
When Su Yun woke up, it was already bright. He washed up and had breakfast. He saw that Wutong, Li Zhuxian, Li Muge and others had already left, wanting to visit the city.
Although he also wanted to go out for fun, the news from Tongtenkaku had not yet arrived, so he had to stay in Xianliangyuan.
When his spirit came to the Tianmen Town mark in his eyes, he activated the Chaotian Tower over and over again, observed the Chaotian Tower mark, and tried to deduce the unified technique of the Yunling realm.
Qiu Shuijing has taught him the Honglu Transformation Technique of the Yunling Realm, but it still needs to be integrated with the induction of twelve other gods and demons before it can be considered as a unified technique of the Yunling Realm.
Su Yun had worked hard these days and had no time to complete this matter.
On this trip to Dongdu, it was rare for him to calm down and try to create a new induction chapter.
His Foundation Establishment Realm Induction Chapter was learned from Tiandao Academy and was created by the scholars of Tiandao Academy. It was the first time for Su Yun to study the sculptures on Chaotian Tower and understand the techniques.
However, in the past few days, he has roughly created the framework of the twelve new induction chapters.
These twelve kinds of gods and demons are Tianpeng, Dakun, Jiufeng, Xiang, Xiang, Feiyi, Baize, Jixie, Zhuyan, Thundergod, Xiangliu and Guiche.
He had to figure out the forms of various gods and demons bit by bit, speculate on their body structures, simulate the movement of their energy and blood, and even try to see if he could imitate the talismans of the gods and demons.
It is extremely difficult to transform the forms of gods and demons into various supernatural powers, but it is much easier to transform them into runes first.
Branding runes on your magical power, the Big Yellow Bell, can greatly increase the power of your magical power.
In fact, if you want to do all this, you need the guidance of famous teachers, and preferably classmates to support each other and make progress together. It is definitely a difficult and even painful thing to explore alone.
But fortunately, Su Yun has Yingying by his side, and he can ask Yingying for advice anytime and anywhere.
Yingying has memorized all the classics in Wenyuan Pavilion of Tiandaoyuan. No matter what problems arise in cultivation, she can find a solution.
However, for Su Yun, although Yingying is good, her knowledge is fixed in the Tiandao Academy's classics, which is still much inferior to Qiu Shuijing, who has witnessed the unique knowledge of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.
"If you have time, I'd better go see Mr. Shui Jing. Even if you spend money, I'd like to ask him to teach me my new exercises."
Su Yun sorted out the new skills and thought to himself: "The Eastern Capital is so big, where can I find the team leader and my parents? I wonder if Tongten Pavilion can find any clues about them in the Eastern Capital?"
Although Su Yun is the master of Tongtian Pavilion, the people in Tongtian Pavilion are so elusive that he, the master of the pavilion, does not know the whereabouts of the others.
But fortunately, he knows how to contact the powerful people at Tongten Pavilion!
He was meditating when he suddenly felt something in his heart. He opened his eyes and saw a paper figure coming to him at some point and standing there quietly.
"Pavilion Master, it has been found out."
When the paper man saw him waking up, he bowed and said: "Su Ye, a family of three, moved here seven years ago. Su Ye was arranged to be admitted to Dongdu Academy, the third largest university in the world. This year he plans to take the exam to Tiandao Academy...
"
"The Eastern Capital Academy ranks third in the world?"
Su Yun said in surprise: "I heard Mr. Shui Jing say that among all the schools in the world, Tiandao Academy is the first, Taiyuan Academy is the second, and Wenchang Academy is the third. Mr. Shui Jing shouldn't lie to me. Why did you say that the Dongdu Academy is ranked first?"
Third place?”
The paper man hesitated and said: "As we all know, there is no dispute about the first and second-ranked academic palaces, but the third-ranked academy has one in various places in Yuanshuo, and there are more than a dozen in total.
.But in Dongdu, Dongdu Academy ranks third, which is something that people in Dongdu recognize."
Su Yun frowned and reluctantly said, "Okay. So, do you know the whereabouts of Saint Cen's pen monster?"
The paper man said: "Sheng Cen is a great sage from the Confucian sect. There is a Taoist friend from Tongtian Pavilion who is in the Confucian sect. He came to tell me that Saint Cen did have a pen monster, which later turned into a human and became a disciple of Saint Cen, called Danqing."
.”
Su Yun was shocked and said with a smile: "It would be nice to know his whereabouts!"
In his spiritual world, the book monster Yingying was also shocked and very excited.
"...Twenty years ago, Danqing was killed." The paper man continued.
Su Yun and Yingying looked dull: "Danqing is dead?"
The piece of paper said: "His death seems to be related to the death of Emperor Ai. He suspected that Emperor Ai did not die naturally, so he investigated the death of Emperor Ai, and then died unexpectedly."
Su Yun frowned: "Who killed him?"
The paper man shook his head and said: "There is no solution to this unsolved case. But since then, Cen Sheng has left the Eastern Capital and is missing."
Su Yun was stunned, Cen Sheng's Immortal Cord was still in his sleeve. Did Cen Sheng leave Dongdu to investigate Dan Qing's death?
But why did Cen Sheng hang himself under the crooked-neck willow tree outside Tianmen Town?
He clenched his fists, then gently opened them: "I'd better go see my parents and my brother first, and fulfill my wish."
Soon after, he came to the bottom of Dongdu and found the place where his parents lived. He saw that the old couple did not live a wealthy life as he had imagined, but were in great poverty.
Qu Jin and Qu Taichang gave them a lot of money back then, but they are fishermen after all and have no skills. They are living in vain. Now they just rely on Su Ye to make some money to survive.
Su Yun passed by them, but they did not recognize him.
Su Yun was silent and came outside Dongdu Academy. After waiting for a long time, Su Ye finally let out of school.
He watched this young man who looked somewhat similar to himself walking past him, and all of a sudden his hatred for his parents disappeared.
"Hey!" Su Yun called Su Ye, threw a bag of Qinghong coins, and turned to leave.
"Who are you? Why did you give me money?" Su Ye was stunned.
"I'm your brother!" Su Yun waved his hand and walked into the crowd.
