Chapter 144 The Giant City
The reason why Jucheng is called Jucheng does not just refer to its large area, but because it was built by a famous general from an ancient country named "Ju". It is a classical military fortress.
Of course, its area is indeed very large, three or four times larger than Montenegro City. It looks like a large octagonal urn, upside down on the ground, with walls as high as mountains. This architectural technique has been lost today.
"The school captain of the Wuping Governor's Mansion outside the Pass? His surname is Hong. He belongs to the Hong family of Zhan Dao. The brothers are very powerful."
"Qi Long, a craftsman from Heishan City, is he the craftsman you recruited? A person from outside the customs drives a car for a person from the customs. Haha, I have gained some experience. Open the door!"
When the carriage drove into the long city wall ramp, Qi Long suddenly smiled, his smile was a bit playful, "For those outside the customs, the concession inside the customs has gained a lot of experience."
Hong Xiaosi's expression was a little awkward. After thinking for a while, he simply said nothing. The light in front of him lit up and he drove into the city with a very ancient country style.
Outsiders are not completely excluded from the customs.
There are sporadic gathering places of "nobles outside the pass" in each of the four mountains and the five seas. They declare to the outside world that people and livestock within the pass are not allowed to enter.
However, these words obviously did not apply to the former leader of the Naked Party. He tried it. When a knife was cut on the necks of outsiders, they would scream and beg for mercy. The blood they shed was also fishy-smelling.
In places where wars are frequent, there are many such 'concessions', and there are not entirely no insiders among them, including generals who have stepped down, various brokers, spider nobles with fluttering sleeves, military contractors who have made a lot of war fortune, and famous actresses.
, a famous prostitute, a womanizer.
The officials here, including the captives inside the city and the guards outside the city, are all served by outsiders. No warlord from Shanbei Road dares to plunder this place. To put it simply, this is equivalent to the 'aristocratic version' of a public city.
On the road filled with all kinds of luxurious buildings in the style of the late ancient country, Hong Xiaosi drove away a group of shameless coachmen who came to grab their jobs, turned around and whispered a warning:
"I said Master Qi, this is a place with a background from the Tianbing Division. Please don't cause any trouble for me. You are a son-in-law in the Xue family, and it is better to be a grandson here. We are not far from the ancient battlefield. We will leave after buying the medicinal materials.
, the overall situation is the most important thing!”
He knew this man. When he was a bandit, he dared to rob the troops outside the customs and cut his own brother to death. He disappeared in the past few years. On the surface, he looked like a good gentleman, with fair and soft facial features, similar to Wei Wei.
Like a young lady who has left the pavilion, once the evil spirit rises, it is the standard behavior of not recognizing her relatives, and she is not afraid of being exposed.
"Master Hong, look at what you said, how can you do that? I, Mr. Qi, am now a standard good citizen, a very good citizen," Qi Long looked like an honest man and put his hands obediently on his knees.
Hong Xiaosi stared at him suspiciously for a few times to make sure he didn't seem to be causing trouble, then he whipped his sheep whip and drove in the direction of Qifu Dajiurou.
"Hey, Master Hong wants to take us to a restaurant today?"
As soon as he heard about going to a restaurant, Qi Xiaogu subconsciously opened his mouth, revealing a mouth of small fangs.
"This is a shitty restaurant! I just collected money for you to buy medicinal materials along the way. I almost pawned my knife. Go ahead! There are so many captains who have entered the customs, and I have never seen anyone who is worse than me!"
When he thought of this, Hong Xiaosi became very angry. If this man was really the medicine jar lying on the hospital bed, he gritted his teeth and admitted it. It turned out that this guy was more energetic than anyone else and had enough food.
More than anyone else.
The big one and the small one are like two rice buckets, and Hong Xiaosi, who is responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation, looks at the increasingly swollen wallet every day and his teeth hurt. If it weren't for the border army's sign, he could still go around to catch some autumn wind.
He, Mr. Hong, really had no choice but to make a living by mowing trails.
Could it be that the real purpose of this man's eating and drinking was to push him to the limit and finally go up the mountain to join the party - to join the naked party?
Qi Xiaogu opened a curtain and looked out with big black eyes blinking.
This place is much more interesting than the dilapidated official roads facing the loess and back to the sky. The "horned antelope" like the one they drove is not rare here, because outside the customs, there are more "spiritual animals" and "demon animals" artificially raised, even
There are also specialized war beasts.
People in ancient China considered their beauty to be "spiritual", and the people outside Guan Guan seemed to have inherited this characteristic. They were used to decorating themselves with luxurious animal furs, and the people outside Guan Guan were extraordinarily tall, often eight or nine feet tall, and their facial features were also obviously different from those of others.
The locals are different.
In addition, there is the second generation ancestor of the hawk-running dog, a hunter like a green-skinned wild monkey, a lady who walks a dog like a dozen handsome young men with ropes, and some products that can only be found outside the country. In short, there are two
Words, fresh!
"Master Hong, I want to buy two eagles to play with."
"Bullshit! You guys stay here for now, don't run around, the people here are not friendly to the people in Guan, don't cause trouble, I'll come back as soon as I can!"
Hong Xiaosi pointed to the splendid Qifu Grand Winery, which resembled a royal palace, and a dilapidated hotel opposite, with an expressionless face.
"Just live here?" Qi Long looked dissatisfied.
"——Chicken?" Although Qi Xiaogu has a transverse bone in his mouth, he has been learning the language of "Yaya" recently. His petite facial features are twisted, as if he is imitating Qi Long's contemptuous expression.
"Is this the standard of you outsiders?"
"Shut up you two!"
Hong Xiaosi looked tired. His title of "Guanwai Colonel" was not so useful in a "concession" filled with people from outside Guanhai.
"Oh, you are such a disgrace to outsiders, my daughter, let's just make do with it."
"——Jiuba."
…
Hong Xiaosi and Hong Ye were struggling to make a living, and Qi Long lost interest in doing stand-up comedy, so he threw Qi Xiaogu onto another small bed and let her play by herself.
And he entered into consistent penance.
In front of him hung a human skin cassock.
The inheritance of Yanfo Temple is very strange. It seems to involve a deep-level evolution of the 'Buddha body', so the inheritance of this sect is separated from the physical body.
The 'cassock' is undoubtedly made of the skin and flesh of Yama Buddha. It is also a rare treasure, invulnerable to swords and guns, and invulnerable to water and fire.
But it’s really human skin.
On this human skin, there are six lifelike images of Buddha, each holding a precious seal.
Among the Six Paths of Reincarnation Seal, Qi Lung successively learned the Heavenly Dao Seal and the Human Dao Seal. These two seals are also the most closely related to the spirit.
In the two seals, Qi Lung incorporated the grand thoughts of "putting down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha immediately" and "killing the Buddha and realizing oneself". Relying on a more profound Buddhist artistic conception than Yama Buddha, he quickly cultivated and perfected it.
The remaining four seals, the animal realm, the asura realm, the hungry ghost realm, and the hell realm are not so easy to comprehend.
In the past ten days or so, he had used the technique of ‘twisting clothes and washing blood with hundreds of fistfuls’ day and night to hone his limbs, plus the ‘Hum Ha’ Qi to cleanse the five internal organs, and he finally felt a trace of the ‘Asura Path’.
In the state of "draping the curtain" and "listening to the government", the human body's Qi and blood make a "gurgling" sound, like cooked red rice porridge.
Qi Lung has been using a knife since he was six years old, and every person he killed, his fierceness, evil thoughts, and murderous intentions were integrated into the changes in the seals one by one. For a time, the shadows of blood were overwhelming, and the illusions of mountains of corpses and seas of blood emerged one after another.
As Qi Lung's face became more sinister, the human skin cassock in front of him became more shiny, the image of the Buddha in the 'Asura Seal' became clearer, and his face seemed vaguely familiar.
However, Qi Lung's face disappeared bit by bit under the evil aura.
There is another way of saying that cassock is called cassock, which is made from rags and rags from many families.
The stronger the evil spirit, the more obvious the stripes of flesh lines on this 'Hundred Neck Clothes' become. It feels like this is not a whole human skin, but every piece of skin torn off and woven by the eminent monks of the Yama Buddha Temple.
In Buddhism, cassock is generally said to cut off the five desires, destroy evil views, and give rise to Bodhi.
But if it were this cassock, the resulting Bodhi would only be "Blood Bodhi".
The pure glass contains endless murderous thoughts.
The 'Asura Seal' on the cassock became clearer and clearer, as if the blood color on the entire cassock was inspired by this seal.
It's like a bucket of living blood poured on it, it's extra fresh.
As Qi Long's five fingers turned, the blood light became heavier, and then a drop of blood slipped between his fingers. Suddenly the room was filled with the smell of blood, and in the blood smell, there was hidden evil thoughts like Shura's.
Among the six paths, the Asura path corresponds to the Demonic path.
Once you enter the devil's path, it means in the true sense, "There is a way to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in."
Qi Xiaogu was like a frightened kitten, hunched over, jumping up, spraying corpse mist, and baring his teeth.
Fortunately, this huge evil spirit passed away in a flash.
Amid the heavy evil aura, Qi Long slowly opened his eyes, his eyes clear and bright.
The nebula is the name of the southern hell. All living beings are often burned by evil fire and their eyes are covered with nebula, so it is called the fire nebula.
When the eyes are touched and the heart is touched, hell appears. Once the true interpretation is realized, the nature is clear and clear, and a single thought is clear, and all the so-called fire haze is transformed into a pure realm.
A wisp of breeze blew by, and Qi Xiaogu felt happy and comfortable all over. He swayed to the west, and finally, amidst the sound of "whirring", his head tilted and he fell asleep standing up.
Qi Lung finally suppressed this Asura demonic thought with his powerful Buddhist spirit.
Transform hell into purity.
'Interesting, the martial arts of Yanfo Temple seems to lure you into hell with every move. If you make a careless move, you will fall into the devil's path, and a ray of thought in the human skin cassock will affect you unconsciously. In the end
Turn you into another 'him'.'
'No wonder even the old monk himself only cultivated the Heavenly Path Seal and the Human Path Seal. He took away his own disciples, and the spirits of the Yama Buddhas of all generations who have been dead for countless years are also spying on him all the time. Isn't this just raising a poison?'
Qi Lung practiced the Six Paths of Reincarnation Seal, and combined with his experience in the battle with Yama Buddha, he immediately understood that this old monk only learned the two seals of heaven and man, so he must be afraid of something.
However, Qi Lung also understood that there was an advantage in doing so, that is, the inheritance of Yanfo Temple would never be discontinued.
If the successor is incompetent, the martial arts of Yanfo Temple will silently 'transform' your spirit into the appearance of the previous generation, or the previous generation of old monks.
Qi Long said "tsk, tsk" twice and put the human skin cassock into the package. Although this thing is equivalent to the top-grade inner armor, he doesn't like the style of human skin. The popular one this season is calf leather.
"Hungry~"
Qi Xiaogu opened her mouth wide, and among all the pronunciation of words, her word was the clearest.
