Chapter 36 [Watching chess, the woodcutters are in action! ]

As soon as he entered the city, Lin Xun was dazzled by the prosperity in front of him. He saw merchants and travelers from all directions in the city.

The streets are bustling with traffic, and all kinds of vehicles and pedestrians are passing by in an endless stream.

There are shops on both sides of the street, and vendors are shouting their wares.

There are many shops such as wine shops, tea houses, silk shops, jewelry stores, etc., which are very bustling.

Lin Xun was also amazed after seeing it. The prosperity of this ancient street was not much less than that of modern ones.

In a sense, it is even more crowded than later generations. After all, there are no tall buildings here and all people are on the ground.

"what?"

Suddenly, Lin Xun felt a little surprised. In this Daxing City, he actually had a vague feeling of being suppressed. The operation of his magic power became more obscure and a little difficult.

Why is this?

Upon seeing this, Lin Xun quickly activated his magic power and watched carefully, wanting to know what was suppressing him.

As he looked intently, the entire Daxing City was basically within his sight.

"found it."

Finally, Lin Xun realized the reason. Above Daxing City, a huge golden dragon was hidden in the clouds.

This golden dragon is huge, agile, and its scales sparkle with dazzling light.

It is not a physical entity, but a combination of the national destiny of the Sui Dynasty and the dragon energy accumulated in the city, carrying supreme majesty and peace.

The Golden Dragon is full of vitality, giving people a sense of new life, positivity and optimism.

When Lin Xun saw the golden dragon, he immediately understood the reason.

It turned out that it was suppressed by the destiny of humanity, so it was so difficult to operate the immortal magic power in Daxing City.

Humanity in the world of Journey to the West is one of the important links among the three realms, and it exists independently of the way of heaven.

The capital of the Great Sui Dynasty, as the gathering place of human beings and the place where humanity is most prosperous, will naturally be protected by the fortune of humanity.

Anyone who fights in the city will be suppressed, which can also protect ordinary people from suffering.

If there are no measures, a powerful demon king will come and destroy the entire city with one blow.

This so-called humanity has fallen apart, and there is no longer the current scene of flourishing humanity.

In addition to suppressing practitioners, the destiny of humanity can also assist practitioners in their practice, allowing their cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.

As a result, many cultivators will come down to the mortal world, choose to support the Dragon Court, and participate in the human fight for the dragon.

In this way, one can gain the fortune of the human race, which is essentially the same as the power of faith and vows.

Even the gods in heaven would come down to earth to reincarnate and assist the emperor in his fight for the dragon.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, many stars and gods came down to the mortal world. They had already lived forever, so why did they come down to the mortal world? It was luck, faith, and willpower.

Rumor has it that Pei Yuanqing is the reincarnation of Nezha, Shan Xiongxin is the reincarnation of Azure Dragon Star, and Yuwen Chengdu is the reincarnation of Thunder God Puhua Tianzun of Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion...

It's a pity that the sky was filled with murderous intent, dragons and snakes emerged from the land, and the real dragon could not be determined until the last moment, even by the gods with great magical powers.

Many immortals and gods descended to the mortal world, and because of assisting the wrong real dragon, they ended up with a tragic death.

Even the Lord of Thunder and Universal Transformation of the Nine Heavens Yingyun Mansion would make a mistake in judging people and choose to join Yang Guang, which led to him being torn into two by Li Yuanba later.

After his death, he returned to his position immediately and killed Li Yuanba with lightning, truly achieving a state of mutual growth and mutual restraint with the other party.

Speaking of Yang Guang, he has now officially ascended the throne and become the new emperor of the Sui Dynasty. I'm afraid that the lives of ordinary people will be difficult in the future!
It turned out that during the three years that Lin Xun had been cultivating in Liangjie Mountain, earth-shaking changes had also taken place outside. When Crown Prince Yang Guang ascended the throne, everyone thought that he would be a wise and capable monarch who would lay the foundation for the great Sui Dynasty. No one could have imagined that he would lose such a huge country in such a short time.

But Lin Xun knew clearly that compared with other immortals and gods, he had the memories of later generations and could know more clearly who the next Human Emperor would be.
This way he could make arrangements in advance, and if he could gain approval from the Human Emperor, he would be able to legitimately build the temple.

If a temple in the world of Journey to the West is built by an individual, it will belong to the God of Mao or the God of Night, and it will be difficult to gain recognition from heaven and earth.

Only the Heavenly Court can confer the title, and other than the Heavenly Court, it can represent the conferring of God's will.

The Human Emperor can also do this. If he is worshipped by countless humans, a temple can be built.

For example, the Great Emperor of the Three Realms who subdues demons and whose divine power is known throughout the three realms, and the Lord Guan who is feared throughout China, are all Lie Zi.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Xun came to Southern Continent. If he just wanted to sightsee, there would be no need to travel so far.

The future emperor Li Yuan should not be said to be Li Shimin. After all, Li Yuan was in power for only a few years after he pacified the world.

The person who truly holds power is Li Shimin.

Thinking of Li Shimin, Lin Xun thought of himself in the past, with lofty ambitions and even thinking of competing with him for the dragon in this world of Journey to the West.

In the dark, everything is predestined.

If he really had a conflict with the other party, he would definitely be defeated miserably.

After all, no matter how powerful the black technology is, it cannot compare to cultivating immortals!

Fortunately, Lin Xun was lucky enough to meet Sun Wukong in the Five Elements Mountain and embark on a completely different path.

At this time, Li Shimin was only five or six years old. If Lin Xun wanted to invest in him in advance, he could only find Li Yuan first.

Li Yuan was born into a noble family and was granted the title of Duke of Tang at the age of seven.

He is Yang Guang's cousin and is deeply trusted by the other party.

Li Yuan's mansion was located on a busy and prosperous street. It was close to the imperial palace and every inch of land was worth a lot of money.

All the people living around here are high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

The current Li Mansion is quite decent. If Lin Xun visits directly, it will definitely not work.

As the saying goes: The seventh rank official is in front of the prime minister.

Although the Li family is not a prime minister, it is still first-class in the huge Daxing City.

Lin Xun was just an outsider with no reputation, so he would definitely be stopped or harassed when entering.

Although he could break in by force, doing so would not be making friends with them, but making them his enemy.

If he wanted to meet Li Yuan, he had to use extraordinary methods.

Lin Xun's mind moved, and he performed a transformation spell, and two large loads of firewood appeared on his shoulders.

Along the way, he walked on the busy streets carrying firewood.

When they arrived outside the gate of Li's Mansion, they began to sing loudly.

"I watch chess pieces being played, the sound of woodcutters chopping wood, I walk slowly at the edge of the valley, selling firewood and wine, laughing wildly and intoxicated myself. The autumn is high, I face the moon as I pillow my head on the roots of a pine tree, and sleep until dawn."

"I recognize the old forest, climb the cliff and cross the ridge, use an axe to cut the dead vines. I collect a load of rice, sing and go to the market, and exchange it for three liters of rice. There is no competition, and the price is average.

"I don't know how to scheme, I don't know honor or disgrace, I live a peaceful life. When we meet, we are either immortals or Taoists, sitting quietly and talking about Huang Ting."
