Lu Qian's understanding of the Great Dao began to undergo subtle but fundamental transformations.

As soon as this transformation happened, Lu Qian felt inexplicably great joy and excitement. He was like a toad jumping out of a dry well, and suddenly saw an extremely vast, fresh, and vivid world appearing before his eyes!

And this toad that jumped out of the dry well, because of the sudden new perspective in front of it, its entire body, from skin to bone marrow, began to transform into a more perfect and powerful creature.

However, this transformation has just begun. For Lu Qian, who has an extremely strong foundation, it may be that a few insignificant cells on the skin have just begun to metamorphose... everything came to an abrupt end!

The Taoist charm contained in the two Little Emperor coins was so thin that Lu Qian had just tasted it, and everything was gone!

Lu Qian had a gloomy face.

He raised his head, raised his eyebrows, and stared at the void of heaven and earth with his three eyes.

The majestic avenues of heaven and earth were clearly visible in Lu Qian's Dharma eyes. He could see the great avenues that ran through the void like giant dragons and supported the entire heaven and earth. They were so clear and dazzling, but he

You can't get close to it, you can't touch it, you can't get any insights from it, and you can't touch any Taoist charm!

authority!

authority!

authority!

He only has the authority to ‘see’, and nothing else!

If you want to touch the Tao, want to understand the Tao, want to absorb the Tao, and use it to improve your own Taoism and promote your whole person to start a comprehensive 'evolution', at least judging from the current conditions, the only way is through Emperor Qian!

Zhou Laodao watched with heartache as the two imperial coins dimmed in Lu Qian's palms, and all the aura completely dissipated, leaving only two inconspicuous 'money embryos' that were as gray as bronze.

In the wasteland, two emperor coins like this are two lives!

However, I remembered the scene where I was seriously injured by the heavy-armored saber-slayer of the Hu family, almost cutting myself into dumpling fillings, but was pressed down by Lu Qian's palm, and the injuries on my body disappeared immediately, and my whole body returned to peak condition in an instant...

...Zhou Laodao forced himself to turn his head, no longer looking at the two green money embryos.

"Brother Fahai, this emperor's money is hard-earned." Zhou Laodao complained angrily: "We braved the wind and snow in the wilderness, went through life and death, and worked hard for several months to be able to go back and forth to the deserted city... to collect it.

The goods that come here are sold in the deserted city. In the end, I can only have twenty or thirty pieces of emperor's money on hand, which is great!"

"It sounds like a lot, but this practice...tsk, I can't make ends meet."

"I'm not just practicing on my own, I also have the whole family waiting for me!"

Grinding his teeth, Zhou Laodao murmured: "It's still the deserted city where the big bosses who sit on the ground to collect goods are making a lot of money!"

"I'm a little curious." Lu Qian clapped his hands and threw the two emperor's money embryos back to Zhou Laodao: "Hurry up and clean up the beginning and end of the Hu family's enclosure. I want to go and see the deserted city you mentioned...

This imperial money is a good thing."

"Isn't it a good thing!" Zhou Laodao clicked his lips: "This emperor's money..."

After going through several circles in his mind, Zhou Laodao, who was lacking in vocabulary, stamped his foot heavily: "This emperor's money is a good thing!"

Lu Qian smiled and said nothing more.

Having just absorbed two pieces of Emperor's Money, his chaotic mind has calmed down a bit. The bright light of the soul floating in the sky above his mind has returned to the size of the mouth of the ocean. If there are enough Emperor's Money and enough Dao Yun to absorb, then he can return to his peak state.

, it is not a problem at all to retrieve all the lost memories and understand the causes and consequences of being here!

Emperor's money, enough emperor's money!

Lu Qian held the Buddhist beads strung with white bone relics between his fingers and looked at the caravan guys who were busy taking care of the surroundings of the Hu family.

One month later - a month in this world, in Liangyi Heaven, that is, almost half a year. After a month in local time, Lu Qian followed the caravan to the deserted city called "Luoyi".

After capturing Hujiawei, Zhou Laodao formally formed an alliance with several caravan leaders.

They left some people to sit around the Hu family and take care of daily affairs. Others, under the leadership of Zhou Laodao and two caravan leaders, formed a group with nearly a hundred carts and three caravans.

A large team of more than a hundred camels trekked all the way, and after conducting some transactions in three wilderness areas along the way, they finally arrived at Luoyi.

Luoyi is named after Luoshui. Its city is located on a large bay of Luoshui.

Luoshui, I don’t know where it starts or where it ends, and no one who lives in the wilderness is willing to waste their brains thinking about this issue. In short, Luoshui is very long and flows through many places. In this area, Luoshui is wide.

It stretches for more than 300 miles, forming a large bay with a radius of more than 2,000 miles. Here, the water flow becomes gentle and slow, forming a huge alluvial plain.

Luoyi was built on this alluvial plain, surrounded by endless neat farmland dotted with numerous large and small farms.

Lu Qian hadn't figured out the changing laws of the four seasons in this place. When he came here, in the surrounding farmland, rice-shaped crops were growing just right. The 'rice' as thick as your wrist had grown to nearly seven feet high, with heavy ears of rice.

It is green, as thick as a human arm, hanging down nearly three feet long, and the rice grains are as big as a bag of grains.

How can a crop like this produce tens of thousands of kilograms per acre?

And at a glance, such farmland is spread out, stretching for thousands of miles in all four directions, east, west, north, and south. How much farmland will be opened up?

Developed agriculture has brought abundant food, followed by a sufficient population and a sufficient labor force.

Therefore, the city of Luoyi that appeared in front of Lu Qian had a city wall nearly thirty feet high, and the entire city was built with three-foot-square boulders. What was even more extravagant was that between the boulders, dovetail troughs were dug out, with green and faint grooves inside.

Made of alloy steel, punched with thick dovetails.

The entire city wall is integrated under the action of these metal mortises and tenons, and its defensive power goes without saying.

Luoyi City is divided into three districts: "ancient", "old" and "new".

The ancient city is the oldest city in Luoyi. It has experienced many damages and reconstructions...but it is well documented that the most recent reconstruction was probably tens of thousands of years ago. The ancient city is located in the 'Old City'

At the core of the city, the square city wall has a circumference of sixty miles, and the residents inside are numerous wealthy families in Luoyi City.

The 'old' city is a circle of cities that was expanded from the ancient city ten thousand years ago. It surrounds the ancient city squarely in the middle. The city wall is 180 miles in circumference. The people living inside are Luoyi City.

Rich businessmen, powerful people, such as Zhou Laodao, who have entered Taoism and are true cultivators, have a house with a very large area in the old city.

As for the new city, thousands of years ago, due to the rapid growth of Luoyi's population, the wealthy families and leading figures in the city donated money and materials respectively, and it took ten years to expand the new city.

district.

Luoshui is to the north of Luoyi. The original ancient city and old city are already adjacent to the river bank. Therefore, the expanded new city can only be built in three directions: east, west and south.

The circumference of the new city is 420 miles, slightly shorter from east to west and slightly longer from north to south. The city is densely populated, with various industries developed, and there are all kinds of food, drink, entertainment, communication and trade. In Zhou Laodao's words, it represents "the happiness of the world"

Wozi'.

The caravan moved forward. Lu Qian and others were returning from the west side of Luoyi, so they naturally entered the city through the west gate.

Lu Qian saw that three city gates of different sizes were opened on the west wall of Luoyi.

One of the largest city gates has large fleets of vehicles coming in and out, loaded with all kinds of food, wine, vinegar, firewood, coal and other materials. The huge Luoyi has a population of millions, and every day

The daily necessities are astronomical, and supplies must be continuously imported from outside the city.

A medium-sized city gate is used for ordinary people to come and go in the city, and it is bustling with traffic.

As for the smallest city gate, it is located in the middle, and its layout is much more gorgeous than the other large city gates nearly ten miles away. Not to mention that the streets inside and outside the city gate are paved with smooth, thick stone slabs.

, the metal city gate is also carved with exquisite patterns, and even the soldiers guarding both sides of the city gate, their armor is much brighter and neater than the garrisons at the other two city gates.

"The largest department, called 'Za', has some of the hardest working coolies coming in and out. They work hard for a year and can't make much money. There's nothing to say." Zhou Laodao introduced with gestures.

Three city gates: "The medium-sized one is called 'Ping'. As the name suggests, it is a place used by ordinary people every day. It is ordinary and not interesting."

"And this smallest city gate, named 'Luo', is where real dignified people come in and out."

Zhou Laodao gestured to his face with his thumb, and said with a proud smile: "Old Zhou is not talented. He is a true cultivator of Taoism. In this wasteland, he is also a prominent figure. Old Zhou and his businessmen

The team always enters and exits through this Luomen!"

The two caravan leaders who were traveling together laughed and complimented Zhou Laodao one after another.

With their wealth and strength, although they are also traders who go in and out of the wilderness to make a living, their caravans can only enter and exit through the 'flat' gate. Not only is the efficiency of entering the city slow, it often delays a lot of time, and sometimes it also

You will be challenged by the soldiers guarding the city and lose a fine.

And following Zhou Laodao, they can enter the city through the 'Luo' gate, naturally without any hindrance.

Lu Qian followed Zhou Laodao's explanation and looked at the three city gates for a while. The miscellaneous gates and flat gates were naturally crowded and noisy. There was a large square outside the city with tea shops, restaurants, and a simple post station and goods yard.

Wait, a large area stretches out, amidst the chaos, there is a strong smell of human fireworks.

The area around Luomen seems much cleaner.

Outside the city gate is a stone square that is a hundred acres in size. It is neatly maintained and almost spotless.

On the south side of the square, there is a flower forest in full bloom, with colorful flowers like peaches and apricots. I don’t know what kind of flowers they are, but they are blooming very lively. There are two or three restaurants, a large number of inns, and even

There was a brothel with pink lanterns hanging in broad daylight, and it was open for business.

Luoyi also has a curfew. Once night falls, the city gates will never be opened. Unlucky people who miss the time to enter the city can rest and stay outside the city. After all, there can be two things in one night in this world.

The five pros and cons of Yitian. The long nights and sleeping outdoors are always hard work.

To the north of the square is a neatly maintained black pine forest.

The pine forest is like a sword or a spear. There is a large school field and barracks inside. You can hear the sound of people and horses neighing from a distance. It is a military camp. Looking at its size, it can station at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Again, there is a curfew in Luoyi. Once night falls, the city gates are closed tightly, cutting off internal and external traffic. No matter how shameless you are, you can't even think about taking a step in or out. However, the wilderness is dangerous and the long nights are bound to cause banditry or banditry.

Some ferocious beast suddenly attacked, targeting a farm outside the city, or a nobleman's villa or farm.

This garrison camp is Luoyi's mobile force that patrols all directions at night.

The caravan continued to move forward, crossed the long bridge on the moat outside the city, and arrived at the square outside the city gate. They heard a burst of shouts and curses from the black pine forest to the north of the square, and the sound of weapons and fists clashing.

After the whistle sounded, a large group of disheveled young people rushed out of the forest like wild dogs exploding their nests.

These young men all looked to be in their late teens, mid-teens, fifteen or sixteen, or at most less than twenty years old.

Many of them were beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they were vomiting blood all the way, or blood was constantly flowing out of their noses. Some of them were covering their arms that were twisted at weird angles, or supporting the guys with bent legs and feet, and ran away in embarrassment while yelling and cursing.
