Chapter 382 Journey to Zhongzhou
Xixuanzhou is definitely among the top three spiritual power among the nine provinces, so the strength of the cultivators here is also among the top three in Zhongzhou. Xixuanzhou has only one sect from top to bottom, that is - Xixuan Temple
.
If you can be named after the temple, the monks in it are naturally mainly monks, but the monks in Xixuan Temple are not necessarily all monks with all four elements.
In the secular world, Yi Cheng knew that the Buddhist precepts first were to quit the four sins of alcohol, sex, wealth and energy.
Wine is poison to penetrate the intestines, color is to scrape the bones, wealth is to go down the mountain, and energy is the root of trouble.
However, not all the monks in Xixuan Temple are monks with all four elements. If that were the case, the inheritance of Xixuan Temple would have been broken long ago.
Therefore, almost 80% of people in Xixuanzhou believe in Buddhism, while 20% of those who do not believe in it are foreign monks. Xixuan Temple still has many resources that are not available outside the world.
However, among the monks in Xixuan Temple, ninety-nine percent cultivate their minds, do not cultivate themselves, believe in Buddhism and worship Buddha, but do not take precepts.
Therefore, Xixuan Temple is divided into outer sect and inner sect. Outer sect monks can be said to be lay disciples of Xixuan Temple. They can marry and have children, and they can be big fish and meat, but inner sect disciples need to abide by the precepts and practice Zen and chant Buddha.
Xixuanzhou is like a Buddhist country. The highest is the host of Xixuan Temple. Below are the heads and elders of each courtyard, and then there are the one-level villas. These villas manage the entire West like government officials.
The monks and mortals in Xuanzhou.[
Xixuan Temple is not the strongest in Zhongzhou, but no force is willing to start a war with Xixuan Temple, because at Xixuan Temple, the Buddha's order, Xixuan Temple discusses the inner gate and outer gate, and monks and ordinary people will be the people.
All soldiers.
In short, Xixuan Temple is a place of unity and a place of crazy.
The moment Yi Cheng stepped onto Xixuan Temple, he felt the unique atmosphere here.
The bells surround, the scriptures are erratic, and there is a faint fragrance of incense in the air.
"Welcome to Xixuanzhou. My name is Nanhao. I am very familiar with Jinshan City. I don't know what I have to do when I come to Xixuanzhou. Is there anything I can help?" Yi Cheng had just come out of the teleportation array and heard
He spoke to himself in a clear voice.
Yi Cheng looked up and saw that he was just a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. His cultivation was quite good, and he was already in the early stage of foundation building.
Although it was his first time to visit Xixuanzhou, Yi Cheng was no longer a rookie in cultivation. Naturally, he knew the intention of this young monk, and he was not to lead the way for him in exchange for some spirit stones.
For Yi Cheng, this is a very unlucky thing. He is not familiar with the place here, and having a guide can indeed save a lot of time.
"What can you help me? How many spirit stones should I give you?" Yi Cheng looked at the young monk's eyes that Qingming did not seem to have other purposes, so he asked.
"I am familiar with many places in Jinshan City. I can serve as a guide for my seniors. And those shops are good, and that shop is a black store. I also know that it will not be fooled by seniors. At the same time, it is the first time I came to Jinshan City.
I can tell my seniors about all the precautions here, only ten spirit stones a day!" Nan Hao hesitated for a moment and quoted the price of ten spirit stones a day.
"Okay, the deal is completed. At this time, one hundred spirit stones will be your ten-day fee!" Yi Cheng threw out a medium-grade spirit stone without hesitation.
"Ah!" Nan Hao seemed a little surprised that Yi Cheng was so happy and gave himself ten days of wages without a bargaining.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Yi Cheng asked.
"Senior, why don't you bargain? Those seniors used to bargain when I saw that I was young!" Nan Hao was a child after all, and he had no scheming.
"Haha, what price do others usually want?" Yi Chengrao asked the child with interest.[
"Some people want ten yuan, some people want fifteen yuan, and some people want twenty yuan! But young people like me sometimes do six or seven spirit stones!" Nan Hao said truthfully, after saying that, he looked at Yi Cheng, and seemed to have some
Worried that Yi Cheng would recover the spirit stone.
"Are you doing worse than others?" Yi Cheng continued to ask.
"No, no, I'm young, but I know everything they know. My grandfather has taught me these since he was a child. My grandfather has been working for two hundred years. He is the best guide in Jinshan City, and I've done it too.
It's been three or four years!" Nan Hao hurriedly defended, afraid that Yi Cheng would not want him.
"Then let's go. If you do a good job, I will add spirit stones to you!" Yi Cheng walked forward with a smile.
"Thank you, senior, I will definitely satisfy you!" Nan Hao hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way.
As Nan Hao said, he was very familiar with Jinshan City and led Yi Cheng to a tenth of the place in Jinshan City within one day.
The only thing that made Yi Cheng quite moved was that all the cities in Xixuanzhou were prohibited from flying. Although there was no forbidden air formation, no monk dared to violate it, even in the Nascent Soul stage.
Because all cities in Xixuanzhou have villas of Xixuan Temple, they manage the order of the city like the city lord's mansion. The hosts of this villa are all monks in the late stage of the Nascent Soul, and they are also composed of monks in the inner courtyard.
The precept monks enforce the law in the city, and those monks who violate the rules have been killed by the precept monks.
If you want to speed up your travel, you can only choose to ride in an expensive beast car.
The beast carts in Jinshan City are all second-level monster dragon horses pull carts. It is said that this dragon horse contains the bloodline of the dragon clan, but it is extremely thin. The adult dragon horse is just a second-level monster. Moreover, the dragon horse is gentle and easy to raise, and at the same time, it is fast.
It is also stronger than monsters of the same level as the endurance, so it has become the only choice for beast cars.
However, it takes one hundred spirit stones a day to rent a beast cart led by two dragon horses, which made Yi Cheng feel quite emotional that the wages of this foundation-building cultivator are not as good as those of a monster.
Looking at the beast cars flying by on the spacious road, Yi Cheng couldn't help but sigh that Xixuan Temple has a good fortune.
Those monks who dare to fly in the city will not be resentful at all. It would be strange if they don’t kill you. It seems that these monks are also greedy for money.
What puzzled Nanhao was that the senior who hired him had been wandering around in Jinshan City for three consecutive days, just looking around, occasionally going to some shops, but rarely buying things, just looking at the buildings and Buddha statues of Jinshan City.
I was extremely interested and collected a lot of jade slips in this area.
However, Nan Hao didn't care about these things. He made no less money from his spirit stone. Moreover, Yi Cheng occasionally gave him some advice on his cultivation, which made Nan Hao feel enlightened. Now even if he didn't give him a spirit stone, he would be willing to do so.
Be a guide for Yi Cheng.
Although his grandfather has been a guide for two hundred years, it is only enough for them to practice by themselves. There are spiritual stones there to ask for guidance, so Nan Hao's cultivation is only the grandfather in the later stage of foundation building. Now Yi Cheng is willing to guide Nan Hao.
His practice naturally made him overjoyed.
On the fourth day, Nan Hao was waiting outside the door early in the morning for Yi Cheng.
"Senior, where are we going today? Are we going to visit Jinshan City?" Nan Hao now thinks that Yi Cheng is the kind of monk who came to see the cultural scenery of Xixuanzhou. It took them three days to ride in the beast cart before they could turn around
Half of Jinshan City.
"I won't go today. Didn't you say that the Fozui Jinshan in Jinshan City is very famous? Let's go and try it today!" Yi Cheng said with a smile.
"Okay senior, I will take you to Jincui Pavilion now. The Buddha Zui Jinshan is the most authentic!" Nan Hao answered quickly.
"Okay, let's go. You have drunk a lot of this Fozui Jinshan after listening to you!" Yi Cheng asked with interest.
The so-called Buddha-drunk Jinshan is a famous wine in Jinshan City. It is rumored that a Buddha master passed by Jinshan City and was attracted by this fine wine. However, because of the precepts, he could not touch the wine, so he left behind the jade wine fragrance for thousands of miles. The Buddha's heart was intoxicated with the Zen words of thousands of years.
