Chapter 143 Taoist Disciples New Capital of Qin

Deep in Yunling, strange beasts appear from time to time.

Ying Ziyi followed Xiaoyaozi, walking among the lush mountains and forests.

"Master, wild beasts roam here and there are few people here. Why is there such a smooth path?"

Xiaoyaozi walked in front and said, "The roads here were all made by my disciples of the Renzong."

"Come out?" Ying Ziyi really couldn't figure it out. He looked back at the trail behind him that was hidden in the forest and had no end. How long does it take to walk?

"Forget the love, remember. There is no Tao in the world, Tao is created by people."

"Yes, Master."

After walking out of the dense forest, the field of vision suddenly opened up. There was a bush on both sides, and there were mottled butterflies dancing on the low trees. The spring water left from the high mountains gathered into a stream and flowed down slowly, making the rock wall on the left side of the valley smooth and smooth. Under the sun, it sparkled with sparkling luster.

"Who is trespassing in Lingyun Valley?"

Two Taoist disciples dressed in gauze and blue robes suddenly sprang out from the rock walls on both sides of the valley. From Ying Ziyi's perspective, they were at least masters.

"See the leader."

The two Taoist disciples saw clearly that the person who came was Xiaoyaozi, and immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed their hands.

Xiaoyaozi waved his hand, signaling the two of them to get up.

"What's going on in the valley?"

"Everything is fine, Master." said the fat little man on the left.

"Yes!" Xiaoyaozi nodded and walked into the valley with Yingziyi.

The valley is shaded by mountain trees, and green bamboos dance in the wind, looking like they have been carefully pruned by humans.

From time to time, boys and girls danced swords in the forest. When they saw Ying Ziyi, their eyes flashed with curiosity.

Xiaoyaozi took Yingziyi to the end of the valley, where there was a bamboo house.

The decoration in the bamboo house is very simple, with two low tables and a few futons. Xiaoyaozi sat on the futon in the middle and said to the disciples serving outside the door: "Who is stationed in Lingyun Valley today?"

"It's Senior Uncle Mu Xuzi."

"Call him."

The boy outside the door nodded gently and walked down the long corridor extending outside the bamboo house.

Xiaoyaozi said to Yingziyi: "Wangqing, although I accept you as a disciple, you still have to go through a ceremony of apprenticeship. My Taoism is simple, but the necessary procedures are still required."

"Yes, Master."

Summoned by the leader Xiaoyaozi, Mu Xuzi came soon.

"Senior Brother Head." An old man with a pale face came in. He glanced at Ying Ziyi, frowned, and saluted Xiaoyaozi.

"Junior brother, this is my new disciple. Tomorrow you will gather all the elders in the sect to Lingyun Valley. I will hold a apprenticeship ceremony for Wang Qing here."

"Brother, head master, I have something to tell you."

"Wangqing, you go down first!"

"Yes, Master."

Mu Xuzi tilted his head, looked at Ying Ziyi and walked away, and said to Xiaoyaozi: "First the princess of Zhao, and now the prince and grandson of Chu, senior brother, do you really want to drag my Taoist to death? ?”

"Did you see it?" Xiaoyaozi looked at his junior brother and asked calmly.

"Wangqing carried the jade pendant with her. I saw her giving it to you with her own hands back then. Senior brother, Qin has now unified the world, how can the remaining tribes of these six countries be willing to accept it? They gathered their old troops and hid in the mountains and forests, secretly They have accumulated huge power and want to overthrow the Qin Dynasty. But who is the Emperor of Qin? Who is the Prince of Qin? Will they turn a blind eye to all this? Keeping these disasters will sooner or later bring disaster to our Renzong Yes!"

"The laws of heaven are always constant, and it will not exist because of Yao, nor will it perish because of Jie. If all this is destined to happen, how can we alone stop it? When one thing becomes the concern of everyone in the world, then even we hidden people People who go into the mountains and forests cannot escape. In this case, it is better to just accept the situation as it comes."

"Due to different understandings of Tao, our Taoist school is divided into two sects: heaven and humans. However, one thing remains unchanged, that is, we will never participate in the grudges between princes. Do you want to break this rule, senior brother?"

"The Emperor of Qin conquered the world, and all the princes in the world disappeared. Junior brother! The times have changed." Xiaoyaozi sighed and said: "The Emperor of Qin wants to create a new era and forge a new order. This is very clear. Everyone can see it. But where will he take this world? No one knows. But even if he is a peerless emperor in the ninth level, he cannot decide the fate and belonging of everyone in this world. Tao is determined by people. Come out."

The debate ended in acrimony.

However, Ying Ziyi didn't know about the controversy at the moment. He was wandering alone in the valley. Soon some Taoist disciples came over.

"Are you the new junior brother?"

"Since Junior Sister Wangyou came to the valley, the master has not accepted a new disciple for a long time. I really want to be accepted as a disciple by the master!"

"May I have your name?"

"Who are you from?"

...

Miscellaneous questions came flooding in, and Ying Ziyi responded hurriedly.

As a villain, ah, no, as a villain wearing a decent appearance, I am really tired of all this.

Among all the Taoist disciples, Ying Ziyi noticed a woman at a glance.

Why did Ying Ziyi notice her?

Of course it’s because it’s beautiful! But it's not just ordinary beauty, it's extremely beautiful.

Even among the Taoist disciples who were generally good-looking, this woman was extremely outstanding.

The cold appearance gives people a feeling that it can be viewed from a distance but not played with. The tall figure and perfect lines, even if she is wearing an ordinary Taoist robe, do not hinder the beauty of a woman who will captivate a country.

She glanced at Ying Ziyi and smiled at him.

Even Ying Ziyi, who was used to seeing beauties, felt like he had left his soul at this moment.

"Haha, you are quite a thief! You fell in love with Junior Sister Wangyou as soon as you came here." A familiar Taoist disciple said, putting his arm around Ying Ziyi's shoulders.

"Her name is Wangyou?"

"Yes! Just like you, she was brought back by the head himself and accepted as a disciple. Let me tell you! In the original jade test, her qualifications were rated as top-grade."

"High grade, isn't it very high?" Ying Ziyi looked like he didn't know what the other person was talking about.

"Of course." The Taoist disciple had a surprised expression on his face, "lower grade, middle grade, upper grade, upper grade. Being able to be classified as middle grade is already the qualification to become an elder. And upper grade, human sect For more than ten years, there has been only Junior Sister Wangyou."

"So, isn't Senior Sister Wangyou very powerful?"

"No, no, no!" The familiar guy shook his finger, looking like you were too young.

"This is not the most powerful thing. Master Xiaomeng of the Taoist Tianzong, he directly smashed the Dingyu test back then, surpassing the limit of the top grade. Even Chi Songzi, the head of the Tianzong at the time, could not be sure of Xiaomeng's qualifications How high is it? In the end, this incident alarmed Master Beiming, and Xiaomeng was accepted as a closed disciple by the old man who had not accepted disciples for fifty years."

Xiaomeng recalled that pure loli with her sweet smile. Ying Ziyi felt warm in her heart and a smile filled her face.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you stupid?" The familiar Taoist disciple patted the dazed Ying Ziyi on the shoulder.

"Ah! It's okay." Ying Ziyi bowed to this buddy, "I wonder what you call me, senior brother?"

"My name is Wangle, and I am the eldest disciple of Feilai Feng Qingxuzi."

"Where is Feilaifeng? Who is Qingxuzi?" Xiaobai Yingziyi asked innocently.

"Feilai Peak is probably a hundred miles away from here! As for my master, he is the senior brother of the master's uncle."

"A hundred miles of land? Isn't this valley the only territory of the Taoist clan?" Xiaobai Yingziyi was very surprised and continued to ask innocently.

"Who told you this?" Wang Le said with a look of contempt, "The mountains for hundreds of miles around here are the territory of our Human Sect, and this Lingyun Valley is just the residence of us true disciples. We usually There is an elder stationed here. The entire Renzong, from the headmaster down to the ordinary handyman disciples, has about seven or eight thousand people! How can this valley be suitable for living? "

"...!" Ying Ziyi was shocked. There are so many people in just one branch of Taoism? How many people are there in the entire Taoist community?

"How many people are there in that day sect?"

"The Tianzong is much smaller than us, probably only three or four thousand."

"...!"

Wangle glanced at Ying Ziyi, as if he had never seen the world before. Said: "What the hell is this? Our Taoist school is considered a hidden school among the hundreds of schools of thought, so the number of people is relatively small. For example, the two major schools of Confucianism and Mohism have disciples all over the world, with tens of thousands of them registered alone. , not to mention those unregistered knight-errants and scribes. There is also a large group of farmers in the world, who claim to have one hundred thousand disciples, and their total number is even greater. There are also military strategists, legalists, and Yin-Yang families... ....Their number is only much larger than that of our Taoists."

In the past, Ying Ziyi only had a general understanding of various schools of thought and had never gone deep into the inside. Among the farmers, Ying Ziyi could only arrange two high-level undercover agents from the farm, Sheng Qi and Liu Ji. He never thought that the various schools of thought could be so powerful behind the scenes?

You must know that the disciples of various schools of thought are not just ordinary people. To a certain extent, they symbolize the most elite people in this world and this era. They possess unparalleled knowledge and possess powers that are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Wangle, what are you talking about? You are the most talkative." A tall Taoist disciple with long legs walked from a distance. He has a Chinese character face, but the edges and corners of his face are not very stiff, and the whole person looks very delicate.

"Senior Brother Wangsi, am I also trying to spread common sense to our new junior fellow apprentices?"

"As expected of the kaleidoscope of our human sect, she knows everything." The speaker was a petite girl with an oval face and two dimples when she smiled, making her look very sweet. She walked up to Ying Ziyi, who was half a head smaller than Ying Ziyi.

"Wang Qiao, you are making fun of me again."

Wangle seemed to be helpless with this little female Taoist disciple, so he spread his hands and said.

"I want to call you Senior Sister Wangqiao."

"Come here, you will come in two days earlier than me." Wangle said very dissatisfied.

"Coming in two days early is also early. The seniority of senior sisters and junior brothers must not be messed up." Wang Qiao put one hand on his waist and pointed at Wang Le, who was a head taller than him. Although she looks very arrogant, there is a wild beauty inside. And Wangle seemed to enjoy quarreling with him.

"What are you doing? You haven't practiced your sword yet."

Mu Xuzi walked out of the bamboo house with an unhappy look on his face, looked at the Taoist disciples who were playing, and said angrily.

The Taoist disciples who were laughing around Ying Ziyi just now all returned to their respective places. Only Ying Ziyi was left in the open space, confused and didn't know what to do?

Mu Xuzi walked up to Ying Ziyi and said coldly: "No matter what your identity was before, you must know that it is in the past. From now on, you are a disciple of the Taoist sect. After the Dingyu test, you will Assign appropriate sect classics for study. From now on, you must abide by the sect’s precepts and practice Taoism with peace of mind. Do you understand?”

Ying Ziyi nodded. He really didn't understand why Mu Xuzi was so resentful towards him.

...

Mohist family, government city.

The government city that stands among the mountains and cliffs is the headquarters of the Mohist family and a paradise for anti-Qin people to gather.

At this moment, in the giant's secret room, Gao Jianli stood in front of the Mohist giant Yan Dan with a frown on his face.

"Since the military ban was issued in Xianyang, our sources of weapons have decreased a lot." Even Mohist disciples can't fight just by relying on slogans such as universal love and non-aggression. They still need to have weapons.

"I knew that this day would come sooner or later, and Ying Zheng would eventually take action against our Mo family. But what I didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly."

"Many of the knights we arranged to resist Qin's tyranny on the periphery were captured by Qin's minions, numbering in the thousands."

"Where were they taken?" Yan Dan asked.

"It is said that they are working as laborers to build a new capital."

"Xindu?"

"It was Ying Ziyi, the crown prince of Qin. He told Ying Zheng that Xianyang was connected to the south by the Wei River, and Mount Wei was in the north. Although the mountains and rivers were sunny, it was only the capital of the king, not the capital of the emperor. So Yingzi Yi suggested building a new capital on the fiefdom of Chang'an Township."

"Ying Zheng agreed?" Yan Dan knew Ying Zheng's character very well. If it were him, he would probably fill the entire Guanzhong with his palace.

"Yes. Their conversation has now spread throughout the world. Ying Ziyi said that instead of building useless palaces, it is better to build a city. The palace can only be enjoyed by the royal family, but the city can benefit everyone in Guanzhong and even the world. People. According to the report from our spies, Yingzheng recruited 100,000 laborers in the first batch to build the new capital. Now the foundation of the city wall has been laid. The spies said that the scale of the city is so large that even Jidu in the past cannot compare with it. .”

"Xiao Gao." Yan Dan suddenly said in silence.

"My subordinate is here!"

"I'm going out for a trip, so I'll leave this place to you."

"Where are you going, giant?"

"Going to meet some old friends."
