He is in a foreign land, without relatives, but faces many difficulties. It is enough for many people to make him confused and anxious. But Sun Tu is not a person who can bow his head easily. He believes that there must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain, and the boat arrives at the bridge. Even if the government makes things difficult for him, there will always be a solution.

So after returning, he only told Ya'er that the matter was almost done, so he stopped mentioning it. The next day, Sun Tu simply let go and took Ya'er around the capital of the Song Dynasty, a thousand years ago, to understand and integrate into such an era more truly.

Their first stop was at the Dasangkyu Temple in the southeast corner of Tokyo, which had long been famous, because it was not only close to the inn where they stayed, but also as the mate said, he could also sell the donkeys. After all, they had to stay here for at least one month, and the daily consumption of mailing the donkeys in the store was quite large.

On the way, Sun Tu was still a little confused. Why does a famous temple make people related to the sale of goods? Isn’t this disturbing the monks’ cultivation? You should know that this Xiangguo Temple is a royal temple, and the abbot is a monk. Does the Xiangguo Temple mentioned by everyone just refer to the place name nearby?

However, after rushing to the place, he realized that he was still wrong. There were several lively streets next to Xiangguo Temple, but they were no longer within the scope. Moreover, one of them was called Xiaotianshuixiang, which was actually a flower street and willow alley. People could smell the fragrance of powder at the entrance of the alley. In the morning, you could see a satisfied man walking out of it.

Ya'er looked inside curiously for several times, and asked Sun Tu to pull her forward quickly and directly arrived at the more lively Xiangguo Temple. Then he found that the outer periphery of the temple could be so lively. This is not what the temple should look like, it is clearly a large market.

I saw that starting from near the gate and extending inward, the entire square of dozens of acres was full of shops and stalls, and the things sold were dazzling. From household decorations to pen and ink books, you can almost see them here as long as you can think of them. There were even people selling flowers, birds, insects and beasts there. In the cage in front of a shop that specializes in fighting dogs, several fierce hunting dogs barking at pedestrians from time to time.

Sun Tu has really gained some knowledge now. He thought that he should be a monk in this royal temple. Now it is better. It looks much more lively here than other places in Tokyo. There are bargaining sounds everywhere, and the smell of vulgarity is full of dust and stench.

However, after seeing so many strange things, Ya'er's eyes were dazzled. She wanted to see some toys, ornaments and snacks, but she couldn't speak to Sun Tu.

Sun Tu soon discovered her reaction and was not saving at the moment, so he bought some snacks like candy cakes and specially selected a few gadgets for her as gifts. This made the little girl smiled so much that she felt that this was the happiest day after she came out of the house.

However, the main business must not be forgotten. Sun Tu found a shop for buying and selling mules and horses, bargained with others, and finally sold the donkey he brought to a reasonable price. However, the donkey was not higher than the price of a horse after all, and five stan of copper coins were enough for them to stay in Tokyo for a few more days.

The two of them were walking in the market of Xiangguo Temple for a while, and Sun Tu suddenly thought of something: If there were Song Jiang and Chao Gai and others in Yuncheng County, would the other heroes of Water Margin also be there? For example, Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen and others are in this Tokyo city?

Thinking of this, he wanted to go upstairs to find the vegetable garden of Xiangguo Temple. Because as far as he knew, before a series of accidents occurred, Lu Zhishen was in charge of the vegetable garden behind Xiangguo Temple.

However, the Xiangguo Temple occupied too much land, and he couldn't find out where the vegetable garden was located, so he had no idea after walking around. Finally, it was almost noon, so he had to give up. He found a small restaurant with Yaer and ordered a large bowl of meat soup and some other snacks to fill his stomach.

While the two were eating, they heard someone beside them say: Is there any good show in the Sang family's tile today?

I heard that there is a drama about the Dragon King killing today, and there is also sumo wrestling to watch. Why don’t we go and have a look?

This made Sun Tu interested. Anyway, he planned to take Yaer to appreciate the various scenery in the capital, so the Sang family's Wazi naturally could not miss it. He made up his mind and asked about the path with someone and took Yaer, who had already eaten her belly round, to the north.

If Xiangguo Temple is a large market in Dongcheng, Bianjing, then Sang Family Wazi is a comprehensive entertainment club here. Like Xiangguo Temple, the Wazi is also composed of many large and small pavilions and shops, including gambling files that keep coming, a theater that cheers, and a quiet venue that is dedicated to people listening to and speaking (that is, speaking).

However, if you want to say that the most popular one is a restaurant located in the southwest corner of this place. It is still far away. Sun Tu could hear the constant loud shouts from inside, and the sound was about to lift up the ceiling of the entire house.

With curiosity, Sun Tu went up to inquire, and then he realized that it was actually a sumo wrestling. Moreover, the price for entering the venue was not high, and it could be entered for twenty cents. Sun Tu paid to bring Ya'er in without hesitation.

After entering, he truly realized how unrestrained the Song people were. There were people in the venue and crowded, and there was no place to sit. Almost everyone waved their fists, watching two big men in shorts wrestling sumo wrestling on the stage, while shouting loudly to cheer for the contestants.

Here, there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors. Whether it is an ordinary pawn or a young master, he shouts loudly without caring about his own image, and even screams his throat, he can't feel it.

Soon, Sun Tu knew why these people were so obsessed with the investment, because someone brought a tray to sell the betting chips to the new customers. It turned out that the wrestling between the sumo wrestlers on the stage was also interacting with the audience, and everyone bets on the contestants.

Since the dynasties, the people of Song people have been the strongest gambling. From the emperor's magistrate to the peddlers and peddlers like to gambling, and people at that time called it Guanpu. Whether in the countryside or in the city, gambling halls can be seen everywhere, and the government still guarantees its legitimate rights and interests while collecting taxes. In addition, other gambling methods are emerging one after another, such as fighting cocks and dogs, and the government's operation, sale and contracting of tea and wine, which is also a process of gambling.

The current sumo wrestling is also the same, because everyone has made the bet, allowing the audience to devote themselves to the fights one by one, making people blush and scream.

However, Sun Tu soon saw some tricks. He could tell the difference between the two sumo wrestlers by looking clearly with his eyes. But there were several weak players who could win the strong and narrowly win, relying on some unnoticed details to reverse the situation.

This is naturally a very exciting and dramatic battle in the eyes of others, but in Sun Tu's eyes, someone is secretly operating. Obviously, it is the people in this restaurant who have done their tricks to make more benefits. No wonder the ticket fees for coming in are so cheap, but the key is where is it.

After understanding this, he lost interest in the seemingly even sumo wrestling here, so he pulled Ya'er, who was not very interested in fighting and killing, and then turned to watch the drama of the Dragon King.

In fact, operas in this era are far from mature. Not to mention the film and television dramas of later generations, even Peking Opera and Kunqu Opera are a hundred times better than it. However, the people of this era do not have the knowledge of Sun Tu. Even after watching a few actors with facials sing on the stage, they still applauded.

This time Ya'er watched it, her face flushed with joy. Sun Tu naturally watched it a little, and then she realized that this play was somewhat similar to the content of killing the Dragon King of Jinghe in Journey to the West. The only difference is that when the Dragon King asked Li Shimin for help, he asked Wei Zheng for mercy. As a minister, Wei Zheng actually directly rejected the emperor and said a lot of righteous words.

Sun Tu quickly understood the reason. At this time, the ministers had an independent personality and would not obey everything. But by the time when Wu Chengen wrote the Journey to the West, the power of the king had been highly concentrated, and even if the ministers had other ideas, they would not dare to put it forward in person.

In fact, it is not just a minister, but an ordinary citizen. After a hundred years of invasion and oppression of foreign races, his self-esteem and spirit were also damaged. This is most directly reflected in the title. In fact, in the Song Dynasty and earlier, the word "Adult" was just a honorific title for his father and grandfather, and no one would use it in the officialdom. But later, this title was completely flooded, as if all officials became the fathers of the people, and all superiors became the fathers of subordinates. Finally, there was even a more absurd statement about the parent official!

People’s hearts are not as old as ever, is this a regression of the times?
