Chapter 149 Chang'an
Sun Wukong and his companions learned the real secret of why the Qingshan Sect asked them to go east, so they held a small meeting to discuss the matters concerning their trip to Chang'an.
If what Sun Wukong thought was correct, they had accidentally stepped into the trap set by the heaven and earth. Now it was the end of the Western Han Dynasty, when Wang Mang was usurping the Han Dynasty. The way of heaven would wipe out the people and things that presented uncertain factors to the catastrophe and allow the Han Dynasty to continue.
If Sun Wukong was right, they were the chess pieces to eliminate the uncertainties, and the sect asked them to go to Chang'an to assist the new emperor in regaining the Han Dynasty, which was Sun Wukong's guess. I don't know much about the history of the Journey to the West, but I do know a lot about the history of the real world.
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was already on its last legs, and it was basically a foregone conclusion that Wang Mang would usurp the Han Dynasty and seize the world. Wang Mang had an army of hundreds of thousands, while Liu Xiu had only tens of thousands, and it was unknown how many of them were composed of peasant uprisings. However, despite such a huge gap in military strength, Wang Mang's army was able to survive the rare drought, locust plague, epidemic, and flood. In addition, a meteorite fell from the sky during the battle between the two armies, disrupting the enemy's morale. This allowed Liu Xiu to establish the Eastern Han Dynasty and continue the fortune of the Han Dynasty.
But even such luck was exhausted due to war and plague. Wang Mang's army continued to weaken, and Liu Xiu's strength continued to increase. In the end, Liu Xiu won.
Now Sun Wukong was at his wit's end. He was unexpectedly drawn into the great trend of the universe without realizing it. Sun Wukong had a vague feeling that things were not that simple. He always felt that something was going to happen. Although he inherited the legacy of Huangdi and was proficient in the art of the Book of Changes, it was difficult for him to calculate himself. In addition, he was in the midst of a catastrophe, so he could not calculate anything. He could only speculate based on the tasks assigned to them by the Qingshan Sect and the history of the real world.
Sun Wukong looked up at the sky. There seemed to be something in the sky, which made him feel uneasy.

The brothers discussed it and decided to rush to Chang'an as fast as possible. They couldn't wear anything so obvious when going to Chang'an this time. Although the Qingshan Sect's uniforms might not be known in Chang'an, those monsters from the Tianmo Sect would definitely know their identities. According to what the sect said, the Great Tianmo Sect now wanted to deal with their Qingshan Sect and the Small Tianmo Sect.
Therefore, in order to avoid being exposed, they need to disguise themselves well. It is best to be an ordinary knight, so that they can still be chivalrous and righteous. Even the moves of Taiyi Xuanqing Jue that stimulate plant attacks should be used less, unless people who see these moves are told to shut up.
The city wall, rammed solid with loess, was several feet high, with a wide trench outside the wall. This magnificent building stood tall on the ground, and at the west gate, there were ten young men dressed like hunters, holding long swords. Sun Wukong and his companions rode at full speed to Chang'an, and their appearance was modeled after hunters.
Sun Wukong and his companions had obtained a pass long ago and entered Chang'an City very smoothly. Walking on the street, Sun Wukong and several of his fellow disciples began to look around Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty. The street was not as lively as they had imagined and looked a little desolate. As the capital of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an was a central city in terms of economy, politics, and culture. In particular, the agriculture here was much more developed than that of Qianqiu City.
Such a developed metropolis has lost its former prosperity. It is because there is a rare severe drought here now. Many crops have dried up. The people have no harvest, and taxes cannot be collected. The people cannot survive, and they either leave or are captured, or become bandits.
After Sun Wukong and his companions entered Chang'an, they found an inn and stayed there temporarily.
They have to keep a low profile for a while.
When they arrived in Chang'an, they had to first find out about Liu Xiu's news, the actions of the Great Demon Sect, and their next plan. Sun Wukong discussed with several of his fellow apprentices and decided that what they needed to do now was to stabilize their own footing.
They didn't have any money on them, but they had only a few spirit stones left. They had almost used up all the spirit stones along the way. Their cultivation required the assistance of spirit stones, so it seemed they had to find a way to get some spirit stones from the righteous people in Chang'an or even from the evil cult, the Great Demon Sect.
These days they have heard a lot of news about the Great Demon Sect. They have been wreaking havoc in the martial arts world. Whenever they encounter immortal cultivators or martial arts sects, as long as the interests of the Great Demon Sect are touched or if they go to the Great Demon Sect, the demons of the Great Demon Sect will find ways to retaliate, slaughter them indiscriminately, and directly wipe out the entire clan.
Therefore, most of the people they met along the way were cultivators, but there were also some disciples of the immortal cultivators who were forced to join the Great Demon Sect under the tyranny of the Great Demon Sect, but more immortal cultivators hid in the deep mountains and forests, and never cared about worldly affairs again.
Many of their disciples died under the tyranny of the Great Demon Sect.
If Sun Wukong's guess was correct, Wang Mang should have secretly used the power of the Great Demon Sect to conquer the Han Dynasty and use the Great Demon Sect to deal with the enemy.
Sun Wukong guessed that if Wang Mang had not met Liu Xiu, the son of destiny, the Han Dynasty would have been truly destroyed, and the Eastern Han Dynasty would not have come into being.
They come to Chang'an now to prepare in advance
, they must not let the people of the Great Demon Sect realize that they already know their whereabouts.
There is still one year before Liu Xiu starts his rebellion. During this year, they must build a force in Chang'an to deal with the major crisis that may arise next. Of course, they must also guard against sneak attacks from enemies hiding in the dark.
Not only Wang Mang, but also the Great Demon Sect and other warlords are their enemies. They must do their best to lay a solid foundation for Liu Xiu to start his army.
They inquired in Chang'an for a long time and finally got some good news. They knew that there was a cult near Chang'an called the Blood Gang. The strength of this cult was decent, but it was no match for the Great Demon Cult. The Blood Gang was suppressed by the Great Demon Cult, and the situation between them and the Great Demon Cult was simply incompatible.
The Great Demon Sect is very powerful and cannot be shaken by the Blood Gang. They have always wanted to get rid of the Blood Gang, but the people of the Blood Gang are quite cunning and always avoid fighting with them. Their hiding skills are very sophisticated.
The Blood Gang often secretly made small moves for the Great Demon Sect, making the Great Demon Sect suffer terribly, but in the end they were unable to find the Blood Gang's hiding place.
When Sun Wukong heard the news, he was immediately excited. It seemed that this was a good opportunity for them to rise. They could use the power of the Blood Gang to fight against the Great Demon Sect and weaken the power of the Demon Sect.
