Chapter 957 Indifference(1/2)
Li Yu is not in a hurry to go to Jinling this time because he has plenty of time.
However, he brought Lin Lingsu, an old light bulb, with him, but he could not slow down along the way and soon reached the Qinhuai River.
After the Ming Dynasty moved the capital and returned it to the capital, Jinling City scored twice and became the capital again, even more prosperous than before.
The emperor was benevolent, had good governance, and was a neighbor to the people. He did not exert heavy pressure to maintain the emperor's majesty, but put down his airs and always enjoyed himself with the people.
There were also a large number of Yanjing people who followed the emperor's move south, filling the vacancy left after the Jinling nobles were eradicated.
The last time Li Yu came, Jinling was not so lively, so he looked around curiously.
Jinling is a place with a naturally charming scenery, which is more in line with the customs of the first few years of the Ming Dynasty.
After the death of the Hongwu and Yongle brothers in the Ming Dynasty, hedonism slowly began to prevail, and the luxury of the upper class gradually became uncontrollable.
This is also the reason why Emperor Taizu Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty pressed it too hard. Just like a bullet, the tighter you press it, the higher it bounces. It is said that in the Ming Dynasty, even... any regime cannot change it.
When the dragon-slaying warriors slay the evil dragon with all their hard work and passion, they may not have the scales of the evil dragon themselves, but their descendants have lived in caves full of treasures since childhood.
Here, when they could reach out their hands to get the wealth that originally belonged to the people but could never be returned to the people, their scales quietly grew.
This is not some dark speculation, this is a cruel inevitable law.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Qiao saw someone who was absent-minded and said dissatisfiedly: "He is stupid all day long."
Li Yu touched his nose and said nothing, because he knew that once he opened his mouth, there would be endless things to say, so it was best to shut up at this time.
The bells in the distance seemed to come from the palace. Li Yu raised his head and looked up. Sure enough, the people on the street also stopped and began to look curiously.
"What's going on?" Lin Lingsu said nervously.
"Palace Master, what's the matter with you? Why are you so timid as soon as you come to Ming Dynasty?"
Lin Lingsu cursed, but Li Yu didn't hear it clearly. He just vaguely heard something about Zhu Yuanzhang, which was not a human being.
It seems that he was treated by Zhu Yuanzhang when he was young. Thinking about it, if he came to the Ming Dynasty to try his luck in the Ming Dynasty, he might be treated severely by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Looking at the entire Six Dynasties, he was able to conquer the Song Dynasty. Who said the emperor at that time was Zhao Ji?
"Palace Master Lin, you have to be careful what you say and do here." Da Qiao was afraid that he would cause trouble.
"I know, I'm really cowardly. I have the same virtues as your man."
Hearing what he said, Da Qiao was not only not annoyed, but even felt a little sweet in his heart. He pursed his lips and glanced at Li Yu secretly with a pear dimple on his cheek.
"When will we go to the palace?" Lin Lingsu asked.
Li Yu shook his head and said, "There's no rush. I'll search in Jinling first to see if there are any clues. If I go to the palace too early, I'm afraid I'll be exposed. People in the dark will know I'm here and they'll be scared away."
This is not because he is conceited. Li Yu's strength and record are now such a deterrent.
When Lin Lingsu heard this, she immediately said: "Then let me go to Chaotian Palace first. There are a few familiar Taoist friends there who I haven't seen in decades."
"Palace Master, please excuse me. When we enter the palace, we will go to Chaotian Palace to look for you."
Lin Lingsu, Li Yu and others acted separately. After he left, Xiao Qiao became even more unscrupulous and immediately went to buy rouge like a baby.
"Why are you buying those things? Don't you know you are naturally beautiful?"
Xiao Qiao was not fooled by his compliments. Her beautiful eyes turned white and she said, "Stop doing this, and leave quickly."
"I have serious things to do. Besides, the rouge and gouache I buy are crudely made by others. If you really want something good, you have to grind it yourself. I'll get some for you from Diao Chan when I go back."
"Ah?" Xiao Qiao's eyes lit up and she was very interested and said, "She also uses rouge?"
"Use it, I grind it myself, I use the petals I picked."
The ones who loved rouge the most in the Zhengjing Sect were actually the little saints Qiong Ying and Qin Keqing, but Li Yu deliberately brought up Diao Chan's head, so that he could easily change the subject and stop them from entangled, so that he could have time to search in Jinling.
Da Qiao also came over and said, "I can't tell at all."
Xiao Qiao smiled and said: "I knew that the fragrance on her body must have been applied too."
"We didn't wipe it off, it was so dirty." Da Qiao agreed.
"That's right, we sisters are all born with nature." Xiao Qiao raised her chin with pride.
Most of the real beauties of China are not oval-shaped faces, but round and round, and very beautiful.
Looking at their gossipy little looks, Li Yu burst out laughing. No matter what level of women they were, they were really obsessed with this kind of thing.
The other women in the Zhengjing Sect were all inferior to Er Qiao in appearance and figure, but Diao Chan and the others couldn't hold him back. Although they usually pretended not to care, in fact, when this was mentioned, their interest was immediately aroused.
While Li Yu was following them around, he was carefully releasing his consciousness and searching for Jinling.
There are many monks in the city, some of them hide their cultivation, and some of them don't care at all.
This is also a normal phenomenon. After all, Jinling is one of the great cities of the human race, so it must be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
The breath of Bon monks is easy to identify, with an unmistakable smell of blood.
They live with bones, blood, and corpses all day long, so it would be strange if there was no smell.
While Li Yu was searching, he could still cope with Er Qiao. He was carrying more and more things, but it did not affect his actions at all.
Jinling City is very large, especially along the Qinhuai River, which extends for hundreds of miles.
In these places, there may be hidden masterminds behind the scenes.
Unless the person casting the spell is Jia Baoyu, he can cast the spell thousands of miles away, but Li Yu thought about it and found that Jia Baoyu didn't seem to have this need.
Because of this incident, it did not cause any substantial damage to the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Biao, and it is rumored that the Ming Emperor Zhu Biao recognized it immediately.
If Jia Baoyu takes action, he shouldn't be defeated so easily. Even if Zhu Biao already has the power of earth veins, his strength is far from Jia Baoyu's level.
There are not many people in the world who can break Jia Baoyu's magic in an instant. Over the years, he has dabbled in almost all Taoist arts and is proficient in them. In addition, he has even created many magic methods of his own and has followers in the world.
He has no shortage of the power of faith that the gods and Buddhas around him seek. The southern Xinjiang alone can provide him with enough power of faith.
In short, he has almost everything. Everything that others dream of is within his reach.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that he became extremely bored and developed an infinite ambition to rebuild the Three Realms after they were destroyed.
Li Yu hated him very much, but he never dared to underestimate him because this man's strength was there.
If it were him, it would be impossible for him to be found out at once. The more Li Yu thought about it, the more he felt that this matter itself was full of rashness and resentment.
He might be a descendant of a wealthy gentry from Jinling, Li Yu thought to himself.
Finally, Er Qiao got a little tired from shopping. They found a restaurant and walked in with Li Yu.
Choosing a private room by the window on the second floor, Xiao Qiao felt a little tired and lay down on her sister.
Li Yu looked out the window and saw the Qinhuai River in front of him. The long river water reflected the sparkling light like silver scales.
Suddenly, he felt a gaze peeking at him.
Li Yu remained calm and created an avatar outside his body, while his real body became invisible and jumped down from the window.
In a stall downstairs opposite, a nun was shopping with a group of young nuns. It was from here that the person who peeked at him just now came out.
Li Yu, who was invisible, slowly approached and took a closer look, feeling a little surprised in his heart.
It turned out to be her...
This little girl has a very thin body and fair skin. It looks like she has never suffered hardship since she was a child.
but
Her eyes were very strange, giving people the illusion of being without any emotion, as if she was already like a god and a Buddha at a young age, indifferent to everything in the world.
Li Yu had met her twice, and once thought of accepting her as his disciple, but he missed it.
This person is Jia Xichun, and she has indeed entered Buddhism now, but looking at her like this, she may not be as simple as practicing with a nun.
Li Yu has already tried it. Except for Jia Xichun, none of the people present have any magic power and are just ordinary nuns.
But Jia Xichun is different. She has spiritual power, and at such a young age, her aura is already calm and restrained, very powerful.
As expected of someone who has spiritual roots and Buddha bones in his body, practicing cultivation can indeed get twice the result with half the effort, just like Tang Saier who rebelled from the orthodox sect.
She recognized herself, but after taking a look, Jia Xichun lowered her head cautiously.
It's a pity that she met Li Yu, and in just such a short moment, Li Yu discovered her.
At this time, Xichun didn't know that she had been discovered. Li Yu was right next to her, and he could hear her breathing clearly.
Xichun's breathing accelerated briefly, and her heart beat faster in her chest. It seemed that she was not completely emotionless, at least she was still afraid.
She found herself, why should she be afraid?
Li Yu thought for a moment and hesitated, could it be her?
Speaking of which, Jia Xichun's father Jia Jing died in her own hands.
At that time, Li Yu and monk Dao Yan went to kill the scabby monk and the lame Taoist priest. Jia Jing was eager to protect his ancestors and took the fatal blow for them.
This was also the reason why Li Yu gave up accepting disciples. If she knew that her master was the enemy who killed her father, she would probably feel very uncomfortable.
Li Yu didn't know that because of his slight mistake, Jia Xichun took another path.
Not only Li Yu noticed such a root, but also Jia Baoyu.
"You have brought the Ming Dynasty into chaos and no peace, but you are still enjoying yourself in Yingtian Mansion. You are really arrogant." Li Yu said through a message.
