When entering Xijing, you need to check the road guide. The road guide is issued by the local government. However, the people in black are not under the control of the local government. There is no road guide. Just as the Taoist people only use urns and never use road guides, so Qi Xuansu still shows them.
Qin Wubing gave him the badge and entered the city smoothly.
After being baptized by the flames of war many times, the original ancient city of Xijing has been completely destroyed. It is precisely because "the prosperity of the past has been buried, and everything is desolate and has no reason. The inner storehouses were burned to beautiful ashes, and the bones of public ministers were trampled on the streets."
Today's Xijing is no longer comparable to that of the past. Only half of the area of that year remains, and the rest has been destroyed in the war.
In addition to its grand scale, Xijing City also has a rigorous layout, symmetrical structure and neat arrangement like Yujing.
There are three gates on each side of the outer city. The six streets running through the twelve gates are the main roads of the city. The Zhuque Street running from north to south is a central axis, which connects the Chengtian Gate of the Palace City and the Zhuque Street of the Imperial City.
The gate and the Mingde Gate in the outer city divide Xijing into two symmetrical parts, east and west. The east and west parts each have the East City and the West City. There are eleven streets from north to south and fourteen streets from east to west in the city, dividing the residential area into
There are neatly arranged one hundred and ten squares, whose shape is similar to a chessboard.
The palace city is located in the middle of the north, with Taiji Palace in the middle and Taiji Palace as the main hall. East Palace is in the east, and Yeting Palace is in the west where the palace residents live. The imperial city is connected to the south of the palace city, with the Ancestral Temple on the left and Sheji on the right, and there are various major
After Yamen and Tantaiyun occupied this place, they renamed it Wuxu Palace, which is still in use today.
This is the core of Qinzhou Daofu and Wuxu Palace. There are two groups of people in one place, one belongs to Qinzhou Daofu and the other belongs to Wuxu Palace. The master of Wuxu Palace is in the east, at the former site of the East Palace
.The real person in charge of Qinzhou Daofu is in the west, at the former site of Yeting Palace.
In this regard, the three roads are different. The Zhenjing Palace, Qingling Palace, and Qizhou Daofu on Taiping Road are located in three places respectively. The Shangqing Palace and Dazhen Palace on the same road are in the same place, and Wuzhou Daofu is alone.
One place. Quanzhen Taoism means that Wuxu Palace and Qinzhou Taoist Palace are in one place, and Wanshou Chongyang Palace is in a separate place.
In terms of grandeur, Wuxu Palace is far better than Shangqing Palace. After all, Shangqing Palace is built on a mountain, which is not as open as a plain. It is also adjacent to Dazhen Mansion, so the territory it can occupy is quite limited. No matter how ingenious it is, it will not be able to do anything.
Magnificent and magnificent, it can only be said that Xianjia is slightly better in terms of weather.
Wuxu Palace is different. It was rebuilt from the Imperial Palace. Even if half of the previous palace city was destroyed and only half remained, it would still be quite an exaggerated area. The main atrium hall located between the East Palace and the West Palace only has one floor, but is as high as
Twenty feet, supported by 365 coiled dragon pillars held by five people. After walking into it, because it was too high and there was insufficient light, you could not see the dome when you looked up. You could only see pitch black, like
In the night sky, there are also luminous pearls hanging, just like the stars at night.
There are not many windows in the entire main hall and the light is dim, so the lights are kept on day and night, so it is also called the "Night Court".
Qi Xuansu had heard about the name of Yeting for a long time and wanted to see it for a long time. After entering the city, he walked along Zhuque Street. After walking for more than half an hour, he finally arrived at the gate of Wuxu Palace. There is a river that goes around the palace.
There is a straight bridge that can accommodate four horses running abreast. There are Taoist officials guarding both sides of the bridge, prohibiting anyone from entering or exiting at will.
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. In the past, there were Taoist ultimatums and it was not difficult to enter the Taoist palace, but you couldn't walk around at will. Now it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Fortunately, the night court is high enough, and he can stand outside the palace.
I could vaguely see it. After stopping to admire it for a while, I turned around and left.
There are never a few people who behave like Qi Xuansu. The spiritual officials of the Taoist sect have long been accustomed to it, but they don't care.
There is a Taiping Inn not far from Wuxu Palace. It occupies a convenient location and is located on the street opposite Wuxu Palace. I don’t know how many people come to Wuxu Palace to do business or pay a visit in a year. They are not allowed to enter.
Or when waiting, I would rest here, and many people from Wuxu Palace or Qinzhou Taoist Office would have drinks and talk here. Most of them were lavish.
An ordinary inn can earn more money than it can spend in several lifetimes by relying on this business, but how can an ordinary inn occupy such a territory? Only Daomen's own property can have such convenience.
Qi Xuansu newly received five hundred Taiping coins, so he was not stingy and went directly to this Taiping Inn. It was a bit expensive, but it was next to Wuxu Palace, so he could stay at ease.
But this time Qi Xuansu miscalculated. He stayed at the Taiping Inn, and a white-haired old man followed him to the inn. This person was none other than Feng Bo, who was chasing after him, and he also stayed in this hotel.
Taiping Inn.
The Taiping Inn occupies a large area. The surrounding shops have been purchased one after another, opened up, expanded the main building of the inn, and carefully decorated it to become a specialized restaurant. There are many partitions near the windows on the second floor.
The luxurious private rooms and the lobby on the first floor are also separated from each other by screens, so that guests can drink and chat. The guest rooms have all been moved to the back of the main building and divided into many independent courtyards, eliminating the need for individual guest rooms.
Qi Xuansu asked for a courtyard with a land name and five peace coins a day, which was suitable for guests traveling alone.
As for the Tianzihao courtyard, it is mainly larger and suitable for multiple people to live in.
Qi Xuansu was going to stay in Xijing for two days to relieve his fatigue. As soon as he took off his cloak and put down his bag, he heard someone knocking on the door.
After all, the inn was opposite Wuxu Palace. Qi Xuansu completely relaxed his vigilance and didn't think much. He just thought he was a waiter at the inn and stepped forward to open the door.
But the moment Qi Xuansu opened the door, he felt a stream of cold air running down his spine and into the back of his head, then exploding, making his scalp numb.
I saw an old man in green clothes standing outside the door, with white beard and white hair, and a good temperament.
Qi Xuansu recognized this person as Feng Bo who held the "Eagle and Dog Killing Conference" on Jiuwa Hill.
Not only did Qi Xuansu understand the meaning of darkness under the lamp, Feng Bo also understood it, so after he made up his mind, he followed without hesitation. On the contrary, it was beyond Qi Xuansu's expectation and caught him doubly unprepared.
"I am a guest from next door, and I came here to visit you." The old man in Tsing Yi said.
This argument is very far-fetched. We are just staying in an inn, not moving to a new home, so there is no reason to visit our neighbors. But Uncle Feng has no good solution. It is too close to Wuxu Palace. He not only has to consider how to kill people, but also how to kill people.
When thinking about how to escape, he must find a reason to kill people silently and give himself enough time to escape. If he makes any noise, he may be left here.
When Feng Bo thinks about it, although this reason is far-fetched, it does not make people immediately wary. After all, it is under the nose of Wuxu Palace. According to common sense, who would come here to commit murder?
But Feng Bo calculated countless things, but failed to calculate one thing, that is, Qi Xuansu had met Feng Bo.
Because he was raised on the eighth day, Qi Xuansu became curious about the so-called "Eagle and Dog Killing Conference", so he ran all the way to Jiuwa Gang and saw Uncle Feng from a distance. He even cleared the place because of "Fengyan Jialiu".
It can be said that I was very impressed.
Feng Bo is a member of the "Heavenly Court", and Qi Xuansu recently killed Jiazi God of the "Heavenly Court", so Feng Bo's purpose is self-evident.
At that time, there were more than a thousand people in Jiuwa Gang, and Feng Bo was the focus, but he would not notice Qi Xuansu among them.
This made Feng Bo's plan fail. Feng Bo felt that Qi Xuansu didn't know him, let alone his purpose, so he was calculating in his head but not inadvertently. But the two had just met, Qi Xuansu had already recognized Feng Bo, and
Guessing the purpose of Uncle Feng's visit, Qi Xuan turned out to be the unintentional calculation of Uncle Feng.
Qi Xuansu is very clear about where his advantage lies, not in terms of realm cultivation, nor in those little cleverness, but in geographical location, and people in front of him. Location is advantageous. This place is in Xijing City, adjacent to Wuxu Palace and Qinzhou Taoist Mansion. People in front of him are people and people.
The high-ranking figures in the secret society and the Taoist people will never sit idly by.
The key is, how to alert the Taoist people?
In fact, it is not difficult to alarm the Taoist people. Qi Xuansu directly detonated the only two remaining "Fengyan Yisan", which naturally alarmed him. But in such a small environment, it is difficult not to hurt himself. Qi Xuansu is not big yet.
Dare to use his own body to test the power of "Fengyan Yisan", and this situation is likely to make Feng Bogu jump over the wall and take action directly. Even if he can withstand "Fengyan Yisan", he cannot withstand the heavenly beings
A thunderous blow.
Back in Baidi City, Qi Xuansu had already experienced the methods of heaven and man, and he probably knew what he was doing.
Qi Xuansu can't place any hope on his "secondary heart". The last time he fell into the Xingxiu Sea, he barely survived due to various factors. What if Feng Bo cuts off his head this time? He doesn't think he can grow back.
A brain.
It's a matter of your own life and death, so don't be careless.
Qi Xuansu tried to keep his composure to prevent Uncle Feng from seeing the flaw, and then naturally invited Uncle Feng in and asked, "I wonder what you do for me, old gentleman?"
Feng Bo said vaguely: "I have nothing to do. I would like to chat with my little friend for a few words. Wouldn't you mind, right?"
"Of course I won't mind." Qi Xuansu smiled.
The two people with different thoughts are like a pair of strangers who meet by chance.
However, both of them had several thoughts.
Qi Xuansu was thinking about how to alarm the Taoist people on the premise of saving his own life.
What Feng Bo was thinking about was how to kill Qi Xuansu without disturbing the Taoist people.
For Uncle Feng, it is not difficult to kill an innate person. The main problem is to escape. When he came in, he took a few special glances. There were many people with good cultivation in this inn, and some of them were guests.
, some of them are the inn’s own people.
It is not difficult for him to directly use the energy of heaven and earth to split Qi Xuansu in half. But it is difficult for others not to notice at all. He is not an assassin after all. Without using the energy of heaven and earth, many of the strengths of the heavenly and human qi refiner cannot be used, and it may not be possible.
He was able to kill with one strike, but if he was allowed to stir up some movement before he died, he would fall short.
Therefore, Feng Bo had no choice but to carry out sneak attacks as if he were a celestial being, striving to create a situation like a lion fighting a rabbit.
