Wanyang Town is just south of Yinhan Mountain, walking along the mountain road to the end, you can see several houses.This place was originally an ordinary village, and before the birth of the yin and yang twin fruits, even a foundation-building monk was rare.Later, Wan Yuezi prospered, and with his support, the family gradually rose, and Wanyang Town also developed.

In the future, even though Wan Yuezi died, others would not dare to invade due to Tian Fangzi's prestige. The once desolate villages and towns now have more than [-] households, and several Jindan monks have retired here, making it the most prosperous nearby where.

There were no pedestrians on the street in the middle of the night, only a lantern was still lit outside the inn, and the dim light was crumbling in the cold wind, as if it would suddenly go out in the next moment.In the silence, Shiying bound He Wuqi with vines, took the unexpected gains with her, walked into the inn and said, "Shop, one room is up."

A master of swordsmanship is daring, even in the dark, he dared to search around the Yinhan Mountain. Now it was almost midnight when he went down the mountain, and there was only one young man in the inn lying on the table sleepily, rubbing his eyes in a dazed way , subconsciously asked: "Three, do you share a room?"

It was indeed strange for three big men to live together, but Gu Yusheng was obviously happy to share a room with Master, pointing to He Wuqi who was still depressed, and said: "This person is very dangerous, we need to keep an eye on him all the time."

Both he and Shi Ying are dressed in the green clothes of sword cultivators, and they are cultivators at first glance, and Xiaoer also feels that this person has a righteous face, so the person locked by him must be a villain.It was the first time he met a live monster, and after looking at He Wuqi for a while, he was surprised: "There is such a demon with such a beautiful face? What kind of monster is that in black and white?"

He Wuqi was born with strange hair color, and he was often questioned by others when he was young. These words just hit his sore spot, he frowned and said: "Presumptuous!"

After all, he is the future lord of the north. Although he is still young now, he can show a bit of dignity when he is serious, but when he gets angry a little, Xiaoer is shocked to drop the teapot. The back kitchen pushed back and said, "Liu Er, why are you talking too much? Why don't you prepare food and drinks for the guest officer!"

The shopkeeper is also considered to have some experience, knowing that with He Wuqi's eyes that seemed to be looking at ants just now, the status of these three people is not low, so he immediately smiled flatteringly: "The waiter has no knowledge, honored guests, don't be as knowledgeable as him. I come."

The north is different from the south. There is a clear hierarchy between monks and mortals. A nobleman like He Wuqi has never had the opportunity to contact ordinary people since he was born, let alone being questioned as a monster by mere mortals. Still a little unhappy.

Southern monks didn’t have so many problems, Shi Ying followed casually, and only asked the question raised by Lu Sheng: “Shopkeeper, your place is not a small place, why don’t you see any pedestrians at night, and there’s not even a brothel or Chu house?”

No matter how strict the curfew is, there are always some places for dignitaries to have fun at night, and this place was built with the funds of Wan Yuezi. With that person's temperament, he should at least create a street of fireworks.But when they came with their swords, the city was completely silent, even there were only a few lights, the silence was really strange.

The shopkeeper did not expect that the cold-looking Taoist would ask about those places as soon as he opened his mouth. Although he secretly said that Taoists should not be judged by appearances, he still answered honestly: "This is a rule handed down from the ancestors. You are not allowed to go out after Haishi. All lights must be extinguished at midnight. Everyone I'm used to it."

At the end, he recalled how the monks resisted this matter when they first came, and only after they got into a ghost did they know how to abide by the rules.Thinking that these three people are newcomers, in order to prevent them from making trouble, he added: "Of course, the Taoist priest is very capable and strong, so don't worry about these things. The candle can be lit for as long as you want."

Hearing that this has been a custom since ancient times, Shi Ying glanced at the Yinhan Mountain in the distance, didn't say any more, just threw the money bag to the shopkeeper, and said: "This is silver, you can withdraw it."

The monks have never taken money and other vulgar things seriously, and they are extremely generous with their hands. The shopkeeper overturned the weight of the purse, and his smile was even more enthusiastic when he quit, "The food will be here soon, and Liu Er also lives on the second floor. Orders are always available!"

Shi Ying and Gu Yusheng were both thinking about whether such a strange custom had something to do with the Bone Sect, but He Wuqi saw all this but wondered: "You actually need to pay for staying in a mortal inn?"

What he said made Gu Yusheng puzzled, and he asked, "Isn't it just and right to pay for accommodation?"

The current Gu Yusheng has never been to the north, but Shi Ying lived there for a while. He was also shocked at the time. The northern monks did not use gold, silver and copper coins at all. As long as they belong to the five northern sects, mortals must satisfy them for free. For food, clothing, housing and transportation, monks can reward them with spirit stones according to their mood, but mortals cannot charge them any fees.

In the north, those who can practice are the upper class, who enjoy all the favorable conditions. If the aptitude is ordinary and cannot become a monk, they can only rely on the monks to survive at the bottom, and life is very difficult.

Such differences have existed since the birth of the Five Factions Alliance. In fact, the title of mortal also came from the north.The original southern monks never treated themselves differently from ordinary people, but now they are gradually being affected, and even the murder cases like Yujian Villa began to be treated vaguely.

Dongling Jiange is naturally dissatisfied with this situation, but it is inconvenient to say some things in front of He Wuqi. Shi Ying did not raise this issue, but asked lightly: "You, a son of the Tianyu family, came to Yinhan Mountain alone , what is the purpose?"

He Wuqi didn't expect him to ask this question suddenly, his eyes flickered, and he said hastily: "It's just a trial trip."

Both sides of the north and south borders are guarded by elites. Not to mention monks crossing the border, even ordinary people who go to business have to go through many tests.A monk from the north came to visit the Yinhan Mountain in the south. Naturally, no one would believe such nonsense. Gu Yusheng even raised his eyebrows, and directly sarcastically said: "The Yinhan Mountain has nothing but tombs, and you can travel thousands of miles to such a place. , Mr. He is very interested."

However, even though He Wuqi had never been to the south, he had heard of Dongling Jiange for a long time.Relying on these always upright sword cultivators, they would not do anything to themselves. Even if they were tied up, they would still talk nonsense, and they would not even make up an excuse seriously. "The scenery in the south is beautiful, even if it is just the countryside, it will make you linger."

Everyone has just come down from the Yinhan Mountain. If the pile of weeds and trees can be called scenery, Chuanlinfeng is simply a fairyland on earth.Seeing that this person was obviously unwilling to tell the truth, Shi Ying felt even more suspicious, so he tried to say: "The Tianyu family is best at taming mounts. You are a son of a family who does not sit on a spirit beast. You walk down the mountain in the middle of the night. I think you are hiding it on purpose." trace."

He Wuqi felt aggrieved when he mentioned this matter, and immediately sighed: "To be honest, I don't even have a storage ring, let alone a spirit beast."

Jianxiu is the most pragmatic. Hearing this, Gu Yusheng went forward to search his body, and finally nodded to Shi Ying, "Master, he didn't bring anything except the vajra magic circle on his wrist, not even silver taels."

It is impossible for the dignified son of the Tianyu family to be so poor and white, Shi Ying squinted at this person, "Is this how you travel?"

"The law and order in the south is too bad. I was stolen when I first arrived, and I was wondering where to stay overnight."

He Wuqi's answer was still nonsense, but the mood hidden under the relaxed appearance was a bit heavy.Although this young sword cultivator is a Jindan cultivator, his sword aura is far superior to all the swordsmen he has ever seen. He is obviously not an ordinary monk.

And this person called master is even more weird, he recognized his identity at a glance, the Tianyu family has never dealt with sword cultivators, this person must have been eyeing him a long time ago.If you came here for that matter, I'm afraid this trip will be really bad luck... What a bad luck, why did I bump into Jianxiu!

The two sword cultivators were obviously looking for something. He Wuqi knew that he couldn't sit still and wait for death. He immediately looked at the more upright Gu Yusheng and began to persuade him: "You imprisoned me without any evidence. If the door finds out, it will definitely not let it go. If it is not good for everyone to start a war between the North and the South, you should let me go quickly."

When he appeared at this time, Gu Yusheng naturally would not let the suspect go, and ignored him at all, only a little puzzled by an unfamiliar name: "Bright Gate?"

Shi Ying has always been active in answering students' questions, and immediately replied: "The five northern sects have a contract. After forming an alliance, all sects must act in accordance with the rules of the alliance, and Guangmingmen will be responsible for supervising each faction. The sects must fully cooperate. Compared with the South where each sect internally discusses how to deal with offending disciples, they at least have a clear law."

In fact, the North originally invited Dongling Jiange to be the supervisor, but the sword repairers refused, so Guangmingmen was formed.As for the reason for not agreeing, Shiying thought about it, and told his disciples: "The northern sect has strict restrictions on the monks, and there are few conflicts between the sects. It is indeed more suitable for practicing with peace of mind. However, their laws also It states that if a mortal is killed for offending a monk, the monk can be exonerated by paying compensation."

Gu Yusheng only had key memories in his dream, but he didn't know these details. With the intuition of Jianxiu, he immediately discovered the problem from this decree: "Who defines whether it is offensive or not?"

The so-called offense is too vague, and the north's judgment is completely based on what the monk said. Shi Ying only explained with an example, "The words and deeds of Xiao Er just now are already capital offenses in the north."

Gu Yusheng didn't expect that just a few ignorant words would kill someone, so he immediately looked at He Wuqi with contempt, "Are you so small?"

What Shiying said is true, if Caicai was in the north, even if He Wuqi didn't speak, anyone who offends the son of the Tianyu family will be punished by Guangmingmen.Although he felt that this was a very common thing, he still subconsciously explained after seeing Gu Yusheng's eyes: "It's just the law, and I won't be serious with a mortal."

Even the law allows it, which is far more terrifying than the monk's personal arrogance.

At first, Shi Ying also thought that it was a good thing to have a unified law to manage the monks. It was not until she went to the north that she discovered that their people were divided into many levels.At the top are the monks, who enjoy supreme power and can determine the rules of survival.The following are ordinary civilians who are attached to the monks. They are protected by the monks by paying offerings. Although they must be respectful to the monks, they can live more or less.

Those who were unable to pay tribute to the Northern Alliance were called refugees.Refugees were born without the protection of the law, and no matter what the monks did to them, they would not be held accountable.Most of the people who were imprisoned by the white witch in the dungeon to catch the disease were such refugees.Even if Shiying exposed this matter, because of their identities, Guangmingmen still ruled that Xueyi Tiancheng was innocent, while the northern civilians didn't even have the slightest protest emotion.

This kind of system completely divides all classes. Now the older generation is still there, and there has been no major disturbance for the time being, but the generation of He Wuqi has become accustomed to monks being able to kill mortals. When they come to power, the situation will only continue to deteriorate .Shiying thought, maybe this is why Jing Shizong chose to take root in the north.

Human beings have been keen to kill each other since ancient times, and any difference can make them split into camps.After returning from the north, Shi Ying understood that no matter how powerful his medicine was, it could not cure the incurable disease buried deep in the human body.

Now, he only sighed to Gu Yusheng, the only one who could talk heart-to-heart: "The reason why sword cultivators stay in the south is because although the various sects in the south are passive and avoid the world, they at least take human life seriously. They won't tell their disciples openly, How much money can buy it."

He Wuqi couldn't understand the expressions of these two sword cultivators, and felt that the words were alarmist, and immediately said: "Don't talk nonsense, the Northern Alliance is a righteous sect, if mortals don't provoke us, how can we come to you for no reason? Are they in trouble?"

He didn't understand that the north was obviously very stable, monks obeyed the law and never fought privately, and mortals also conscientiously guarded their own domain.Compared with the south, which is completely dependent on the useless imperial court, the common people in the north are doing well under the protection of the monks, and have never been troubled by natural disasters and man-made disasters. Even if the plague broke out, they would call for medical repairs and heal them immediately.

Since monks make life better for mortals, isn't it natural for mortals to pay offerings and attach themselves to them?Why do these two people have to show this look like something evil?

His reaction seemed to be ignorant of Jing Shizong. Shi Ying didn't know if this person was acting, but just took a deep look at the future Lord of the North, "I also hope that you will always be the righteous sect."

The author has something to say: He Wuqi: PK is prohibited in the north, everyone is a leisure pension gang, how can it be possible to make trouble?

Shi Ying (looking at her leaf): Believe it or not, I don't believe it anyway.

Gu Yusheng (touching his conscience): I don't believe it either.

Shi Ying: Okay, two to one, we won.

He Wuqi (grievance): You just bully me for not being in love!
