Dao fruit.

Dongdu, Da Rui accompanied the capital.

Backed by a big river, the city is convenient for water transportation, and it is connected to the inner road, so it is convenient to travel. It goes to the grassland in the north, goes to the water town in the south, looks at the sea in the east, and connects to Xingjing in the west.

When the previous dynasty collapsed, the feudal lords divided their regimes, and the Eastern Capital was successively acquired by three people, all of whom used it as their capital, and the last one was Taizu Darui.It has changed hands several times, but it has hardly been involved in wars. It can be called a paradise. Therefore, it retains the language of the previous dynasty, has a brilliant culture, gathers many great Confucian scholars, has several academies, and has derived several schools of thought.

Today, the capital of Darui has been moved to Guanzhong, but it does not hinder the prosperity of the eastern capital.

Qiu Yan and others passed through the city gate and entered the city. They saw people coming and going on the road, shoulder to shoulder, and crowds everywhere they looked.

"Good boy! In my entire life, Dai Guo has seen the most people today!" This scene caused Dai Guo to exclaim again and again, but the passers-by around were not surprised at all. At most, they took a look at it and stopped paying attention. Obviously, they have seen a lot up.

"Brother Dai, what you said is right. As far as I know, the population of this eastern capital is now nearly a million, and the garrison alone has 10,000+ people!" .

His name is Qi Bai.

Earlier, Qiu Yan and others left Lizong Academy and were planning to go to Dongdu, but they ran into a carriage on the road. The person in front of the carriage said that they were waiting there specially to meet Qiu Yan under the order of the young lady.

Hearing these words, Qiu Yan was unavoidably surprised. He asked himself that he had no friends in Dongdu. Although he had some reputation, it was only limited to Jiannan Road, so he was very curious about the identity of the lady. When it comes to the place, you will know it yourself.

Qiu Yan also knew.Some people abide by the rules, and women are not allowed to show their faces easily, and it is not convenient to reveal their names.

"I'm here for the first time, and I'm here for traveling, so it's okay to meet." When Qiu Yan made a decision, he faintly felt a change in luck.Can't help but wonder.On the subsequent road, Qi Bai was respectful and even took on the responsibility of a tour guide.

"Nearly a million? A garrison of 10,000+?" Hearing Qi Bai's introduction, Hu Qi couldn't help being surprised. When he and Dai Guo wandered around in the rivers and lakes, although they traveled all over the world.But he never came to Dongdu.

Qiu Yan said: "Although I have never been to Dongdu in the future, I have read a random note. It described Dongdu as 'there are so many people, adding a hundred thousand people does not add more, and subtracting does not feel less.'"

The meaning of these words is easy to understand, that is, there are too many people gathered in the city, and the reduction and changes of the hundreds of thousands of people in it are nothing.

After hearing this.Only then did Hu Qi and Dai Guo have a vague idea of ​​the large population of the Eastern Capital.

As they walked along the road, there were dotted with large and small shops along the street, and there were many merchants coming and going.Each one hawked, and the things they sold were all-encompassing, and Hu Qi and Dai Guo couldn't catch them all.

Even Qiu Yan couldn't help being amazed. You must know that this mortal merchant cannot use Taoism and supernatural powers to transport goods. Traveling from south to north, driving a horse and boat is not easy.

This is ancient times, and it is different from Qiu Yan's previous life. It is extremely difficult to support a city with a population of one million. Not to mention other things, it is quite difficult just to discharge sewage, maintain law and order, and maintain rations. A slight mistake may cause chaos. The consequences could be disastrous.

Looking at it, Qiu Yan couldn't help feeling emotional: "The jujubes of Anyi, the oranges of Jiangling, the lacquer of Chen Xia, the hemp of Qilu, the valley of ginger, osmanthus, silk and silk... There are so many things to see and everything that one expects to find. The next article, "Ode to the Eastern Capital", I saw it today, and then I realized that what was said above was true."

The Zhou Xuezheng he was talking about was a poet in the past who once wrote a fu describing the prosperity of the Eastern Capital.

"Young Master Qiu is really knowledgeable." Qi Bai smiled and complimented, without urging the three of them to hurry.

Walking and walking, a group of people suddenly appeared on the road ahead, densely crowded together, looking from a distance, it seemed like a wall enclosing a street.

"What's going on? What are those people doing?"

This scene aroused the curiosity of Hu Qi and Dai Guo. With their lives on their bodies, they focused their attention and extended their senses. Their senses surpassed the crowd and shrouded the inside. They immediately heard the voices of several people talking from inside.

There are questions and answers, it seems that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are asking directions, and soon some kind people give advice...

"What's so interesting about asking for directions? There are so many people around."

But as they listened, the two felt something was wrong. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law asked the way and thanked them, and then there was the sound of a carriage coming from the crowd, followed by the heavy rain, and a picture of the situation in the rain was drawn in the hearts of the two of them. The scene of rushing on the road infects thoughts and makes people feel depressed.

But when they looked up, it was clear sky, not to mention heavy rain, not even the slightest dark cloud, besides, the streets and alleys were surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside, not to mention carriages, even people couldn't get in go.

Realizing this, the two looked at each other in blank dismay.

At this time, there was a melodious flute sound, followed by string music, like a clear spring flowing into the heart, dispelling the feeling of depression in everyone's heart.

The sound of the song was faint, and it lasted for about a cup of tea before it ended.

Then, the group of people applauded loudly, everyone applauded and praised, many people reached into their pockets, took out three taels of copper coins, and threw them in front of them.

ding ding dong.

Amidst the sound of copper plates falling into the dishes, the crowd gradually dispersed, revealing the scene inside——

It turned out to be a young man in coarse clothes, sitting on a low stool, without seeing anything else.

"What's the matter with the sound just now? Not only is there no carriage, you can't even see the shadow of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?" Dai Guo was still puzzled, but Hu Qi beside him suddenly realized.

"I understand. This is a ventriloquism. Using one person's mouth to imitate the sound of a foreign object, this young man is very capable!"

After his reminder, Dai Guo also wanted to understand, touched his head and said: "After all, it is the Eastern Capital, and there are many strange things."

Not far away, Qi Bai smiled without saying a word, while Qiu Yan glanced at the young man, moved in his heart, and walked over.

The young man had already stood up from the chair, clearing away the copper plates in the dishes in front of him, he didn't take it seriously when he saw Qiu Yan approaching, and just said "Hi, master".

Qiu Yan nodded, took out a few copper coins from his sleeve, and put them in.

The boy thanked him, wrapped the bits and pieces of copper coins in coarse cloth, and carried the bag in one hand.Holding a low stool in one hand, he turned and walked deep into the alley.

Looking at the back of the man going away, a gleam of light flashed in Qiu Yan's eyes, and a faint blue color appeared.

Immediately, his vision changed, although it was still the same street.But I caught the light of the stars from it——

Qiu Yan is no stranger to this.

Silver light!Divine power fluctuates!

"I didn't expect that when I first came to Dongdu, I didn't see Wubao Tianhua, but I found a trace of unusual divine way. This young man seems to be related to the gods, and this god..."

When Qiu Yan stepped into the Eastern Capital.He sensed a strong aura of divine dao, and the legal domain enveloped the city.Ubiquitous, all-encompassing, there are traces of the divine way everywhere in the streets and alleys, even if it is hard for ordinary people, they cannot escape the eyes of monks.

If Qiu Yan didn't have fame.To cover up luck, as soon as you enter this legal domain, you will be traced by Shinto.

No wonder.Going north on this road, the farther away from the frontier, the more perfect the divine way. Dongdu is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and it is one of the cores of Darui. It is normal for the divine way to prosper.

No matter how prosperous the divine way is, it must be subordinate to the heavenly court and abide by the order. Although the divine way of the city is full of strong breath, it follows certain laws and is compatible with each other.

Compared with this, the little bit of divine power left in this young man seemed out of place.

"Although this divine power doesn't match the surroundings, it's rare and hard to find. If it wasn't for the turmoil in Li Gua, I would have neglected it. It's really strange." After thinking for a while, Qiu Yan shook his head secretly and withdrew his thoughts.

He was able to discover the clues because the Li Gua in the deity's body trembled slightly, and on a whim, it affected the change of the Heavenly Soul, which made him save some time, and took the opportunity of giving money to investigate carefully and found the traces.

"Forget it, he took my copper plate, so he can use Li Gua to sense it, let's just let it happen." Qiu Yan did not do it deliberately, but out of habit, and he may not expect to gain anything from playing idle chess.

On the other side, Qi Bai looked up at the sky, and said: "It's getting late, Mr. Qiu, let's go on our way first, my lady is waiting at the Baiyu Tower in front."

"That's right." Qiu Yan nodded, turned and walked back.

The taverns in Dongdu can be divided into main shops and foot shops. The main shops are the best, such as Baiyu Pavilion, which is one of the best wine shops in Dongdu, and there are often more than a thousand people drinking.

Originally, after listening to Qi Bai's introduction, Qiu Yan thought it was a little exaggerated, but after he actually arrived, he realized that what he said was true.

This white jade building has three floors and is divided into five buildings. There are flying bridges and bead curtains between the buildings. The scale is so large that it dwarfs all the restaurants in Jiannan Road.

This kind of flying bridge is not the kind of Hongqiao designed by Qiu Yan, but for the sake of beauty, it is carved and opened up on the body of the building, and there are colorful lights on the side of the bridge, because it is not yet night, so there are no colorful lights.

"Good guy! It's an eye-opener! An eye-opener!" Hu Qi and Dai Guo were stunned when they saw the huge monster in front of them.

Qiu Yan was also a little surprised. In terms of scale, this Baiyu Building is not inferior to some buildings in the previous life.

On the side, Qi Bai saw that Qiu Yan's face did not change, only showing a little shock at the beginning, and he couldn't help admiring the other party's skill in nourishing Qi. You know, in terms of prosperity, even Xingjing is not as good as Dongdu, and many children from Guanzhong came here , When I saw this building, I was amazed for a long time.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Qi Bai stepped forward to lead, and said in his mouth: "Young Master Qiu, please!"

Qiu Yan was also polite, and walked into the building with Hu Qi and Dai Guo who were still surprised.

Once you come in, the senses are different again, the layout is extremely luxurious, but it is not superficial, mixed with elegance and simplicity, with a unique charm.

Along the way, there are endless slaves, beauties like clouds, one voice, or unusually respectful, or charming, people walk in it, unconsciously will give birth to a sense of dignity.

The building was huge, Qiu Yan followed Qi Bai all the way, went up the ladder and turned the corner, and walked for a long time before arriving at the door of the elegant room.

There is a word "Autumn" written on the door. Although there is no charm, but the appearance is very good, and the person who wrote it is obviously obsessed with this way.

"Young Master, wait a moment," Qi Bai said, and then knocked on the door, the Xiangmu room door opened in response, and a man walked out, with a Chinese character face, a beard, and a peaceful heart.

As soon as he saw this person, Qiu Yan's complexion changed.

"Mr. Ji?"

This person is precisely Na Ji Zheng.
