Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 360: Advance or Retreat?

The state of Lu was extremely prosperous, far beyond the reach of the northern states.

Moreover, the population is large, and there are many cities with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.

Along the way, Feng Qingyan was amazed. He found that even some women and children could answer some scriptures fluently, which shocked him.

And many people have opened the Wen Palace.

"This Lu State is so prosperous."

Jiuge looked around with his little head, shocked by the prosperity of Lu State.

He thought that Bo City, which originally had a population of tens of thousands, was prosperous. However, he didn't know that the cities along the way were many times more prosperous than Bo City.

The streets are filled with cars and scholars.

Feng Qingyan, who had once stood out from the crowd, did not seem as stunning as before after arriving in Lu, a country with many literati.

But still stunning.

"Where are we going, sir?"

Jiuge asked while driving the carriage.

"Rucheng."

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Rucheng?"

Jiuge was a little surprised, but it was also reasonable.

Sir, when you come to Lu, where else can you go if not to Rucheng?

Rucheng was not the capital of Lu, but it was more prosperous than the capital, gathering countless scholars from all over the world. Confucianism was in Rucheng, and the 27 Book Mountains of Confucianism were also in Rucheng...

Along the way, countless scholars went to Confucian City, and countless scholars came out of Confucian City.

Two days later, Feng Qingyan finally arrived at Rucheng.

Rucheng was very large, stretching for dozens of miles, and had a permanent population of almost one million.

At this time, Feng Qingyan looked out from afar and exclaimed: "The palace is ten feet high, and it is more than a hundred steps away from the government office. The eaves are connected to the Han River in the distance, and the flying pavilions are far above the sky. The clouds hide the layers of palaces, and the wind and smoke are sparse."

When he entered the State of Lu, he saw an extremely huge column of air, which was emitted from the City of Ru.

"Sir, is this Rucheng?"

Jiuge looked at it curiously.

Feng Qingyan nodded and said, "Let's go into the city."

Jiuge immediately drove the carriage in, and then asked with some doubt: "Sir, I heard that Confucianism has twenty-seven book mountains, and each book mountain is extremely large. This Confucian City should not be able to accommodate them? Could it be that the twenty-seven book mountains are not in the Confucian City?"

"Although the Twenty-Seven Book Mountains are extremely large, they are indeed located in the Confucian City."

Feng Qingyan said with a smile.

"what?"

Jiuge was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Why can't I see it? Although the Confucian City is at least dozens of miles wide, a mountain of books must be at least dozens of miles wide, right?"

“Although the Twenty-Seven Book Mountains are in Confucian City, Confucian City is a world of its own.”

Feng Qingyan Road.

"Another world?"

Jiuge was a little confused.

“My Holy Religion has opened up a world in the Confucian City, and the Twenty-Seven Book Mountains are within this world,” Feng Qingyan said.

"what?"

Jiuge was a little shocked and asked, "Open up the world?"

"Why is this so strange?" Feng Qingyan said calmly, "Didn't Taoism open up the Mountain and Sea Realm not long ago? Moreover, the Mountain and Sea Realm is extremely huge, and it is not necessarily smaller than the Zhou World."

"The Mountain and Sea Realm is so big?"

Jiuge couldn't help but widen his eyes, seeming a little unconvinced.

"The Three Immortal Mountains behind the Mountain and Sea Realm are even more gigantic, making them impossible to peek into."

Feng Qingyan hesitated for a moment and said.

Although he could not see the true face of Sanxian Mountain, he felt that Sanxian Mountain was vast and boundless. It seemed that Sanxian Mountain was another world, and it might even be the legendary fairyland.

However, when he saw the Three Immortals Mountain, he felt that there was something strange about it, and that it had cut off his path to becoming an immortal...

"What's your name?"

"Seal it back."

When entering the city, there were Confucian disciples guarding the gates, checking the identities of the scholars one by one. Now Feng Qingyan was using the alias Feng Hui, a scholar from one of the vassal states in the north, who came to the Twenty-Seven Book Mountain to study...

His identity was arranged by the Grand Master himself, so there would naturally be no problem.

After entering the city, he wandered around for two or three days and got to know a few scholars, but he did not develop close friendships with them. Then he went to the Confucian school.

The Confucian School is the entrance to the world of Confucianism.

The Confucian world, also known as the Confucian world or the holy land, is generally called the holy land by Confucian disciples.

The Confucian Gate is located in the center of the Confucian City. There are squares for miles around, and in the center stands an extremely huge gate, more than ten feet high. On the Confucian Gate, countless words are carved, bursting with a faint white light, making people feel the majestic atmosphere.

The words on the Confucian Gate seem to be flowing, which is very magical.

Feng Qingyan stood in the square, looking at the Confucian sect curiously, and vaguely sensed another breath, which seemed to come from the holy land...

At this time, many scholars gathered in the Rumen Square, almost all of whom were at the level of literati or above.

In the Confucian Gate, there was something like a water curtain. People who walked through the water curtain disappeared, and some people walked out of the water curtain. Although the Confucian Gate was not guarded by scholars, one needed a Confucian card to enter, and Feng Qingyan naturally had a Confucian card...

Without looking at it any further, he took Jiuge and walked towards the Confucian sect.

Jiuge also has a Confucian plaque.

Confucianism had long known about the existence of Jiuge, so naturally it would not make things difficult for it.

At this time Feng Qingyan brought Jiuge and walked directly into the Confucian sect, passed through the water curtain and entered a new world.

When you enter the Confucian school, a mountain appears before your eyes.

This mountain is called Wuchang.

What are the Five Constant Virtues?

That is, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness.

At this time, Feng Qingyan looked at Wuchang Mountain and felt that the world was filled with a mighty aura of utmost strength, righteousness, and greatness.

But at this time, Feng Qingyan frowned.

For some reason, the majestic aura in the holy land actually suppressed him a little, making him feel uncomfortable.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

"What's wrong, sir?"

Jiuge asked doubtfully.

"nothing."

Feng Qingyan shook his head.

However, he still felt uncomfortable.

After a while, he walked towards Wuchang Mountain because there was only one road in front of him.

However, as he walked, Feng Qingyan's feeling became clearer, as if the majestic aura in the holy land really had a certain effect on him.

Strange?

Feng Qingyan couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Could it be because of the ghost gate behind?
However, the ghost gate behind him did not appear...

He frowned and continued walking forward.

When he reached the Stone Elephant Road, the suppression of the vast heaven and earth on him became even stronger.

At this moment, it was as if a thousand mountains were pressing down on him, making him feel a little overwhelmed. Moreover, in his eyes, the stone beasts on both sides of the Stone Elephant Road seemed to come alive, baring their fangs and roaring at him.

What's happening here?
Not only did the stone beasts come to life, but even the eight stone statues came to life as civil and military officials.

The civil officials exude a majestic and righteous spirit, while the military officials burst with blood like a blazing flame.

The civil officials scolded and the military generals roared!

It seemed to make all the evil spirits dare not come even a step closer.

At this moment, Feng Qingyan's expression suddenly changed. He felt that the ghost gate behind him seemed to be about to emerge, which made him startled.

The ghost door behind him is his biggest secret.

This must never be known to anyone.

Enter?
Or retreat?

If you continue to walk in, you may be forced out of the ghost gate...

But what if it doesn’t go in?
