In ordinary days, monks usually come and go, in groups or alone. They have a natural aversion to various places with a large number of people, but they must overcome this when entering the imperial city.
Zhao Shoushou was originally a mortal fisherman, but in the early days of his practice, he mostly made a living on a fishing boat. He had no personal experience of such a prosperous scene. The Imperial City of Zhou and Song Dynasties and his party made up for a big flaw.
The mortals who are busy earning money through various means, struggling to survive with spiritual stones, and have no time to spare may have become accustomed to being crowded with each other. They don't pay too much attention to the monks around them, and just head forward quickly.
Go.
On the other hand, the monk's face showed different changes in response to the scene, either expressionless, disgusted and dissatisfied, or trying to adapt.
No matter what the performance is, in order to purchase some resources in the imperial city, they are still heading towards the city. After passing through the city gate, some carriages, simple puppets, etc. have appeared. The monks quickly made their own decisions.
Of course, there are a small number of monks who happily blend into the crowd, seeming to be very satisfied and comfortable with this special journey.
Zhao Shoushou naturally belongs to this small group of monks. He has no noble thoughts about mortals. The reason for making such a choice is just to make up for the lack of experience in his life and to minimize the future encounters in the process of breaking the pill to become a baby.
The possibility of inner demons invading.
The inner demon is a special kind of existence, which can be regarded as a test for the monk's mental state. Starting from the promotion of the Nascent Soul, this kind of inner demon will accompany the monk's every major improvement in strength.
As for the specific forms and ways in which inner demons appear, they are all different. The only thing that is the same is that every time they appear, they point directly to the deepest, softest and most unwilling place in a monk's heart to be exposed to others.
The only way to fight against the inner demons is through bitter suffering. Once the time for their appearance exceeds, they will dissipate in an instant, return to clarity, and the promotion of cultivation will naturally be successful.
Once fallen in this process, the monk will become a tool controlled by the inner demon, and he will commit bloodthirsty killings and commit all kinds of crimes. The monk will not end until the life force in his body is exhausted.
Of course, in the world of cultivation, there are also some elixirs and magic weapons that can help resist the invasion of inner demons, but the ultimate reliance is still on the monk's mental state.
If, after overcoming all difficulties and obstacles, you are finally succumbed to the invasion of inner demons, wouldn't it be true that all your efforts have been in vain? Everything is in vain?
This is also the reason why in the past practice career, I have always attached great importance to the cultivation of mental state, but I will not let go of any opportunity for improvement.
It took a quarter of an hour to get from the city gate to the market place. When he emerged from the crowd again, Zhao Shoushou felt that his whole body was very refreshed, as if there was an inexplicable improvement.
"This is Fangshi? A Fangshi that is more open and tolerant than Songjun County. It is quite interesting." There was a look of interest on his face, and then he stepped into it to find out.
The Imperial City is supposed to be a very solemn city, and the many tests before officially entering are the most powerful proof. However, this city that belongs to the royal family gives people an unprecedented special feeling.
There are four entrances and exits in Fang City. In addition to monks, mortals can also enter without any restrictions. It is like a lively market.
Gu Bi
Even if there are no substantial restrictions, the city is still dominated by monks. Occasionally, a mortal will come and go. These people who live with the monks all year round have a deeper understanding of the monks, and thus have a better understanding of these magical powers.
The monks who are broad and have an unstable temper are more afraid.
"Royal Winery, Royal Treasure Pavilion, Royal Spiritual Beast Farm" starts from the moment they enter the city, and all the shops, large and small, start with various royal names.
There is no doubt about the quality of the treasures sold in this series of royal shops, and the waiters who serve as greeters and escorts are all internal officials, and they are also a group of monks who are the most loyal to the royal family.
Although the prices are higher than other shops, there are quite a lot of monks coming and going, and it can be regarded as one of the effective methods used by the royal family to raise spiritual stones.
The basis for the royal family to rule a country is the large number of monks, so the consumption of various resources is unparalleled. Earning spiritual stones through shops is really a normal way.
"The royal family is recruiting monks. The royal family has begun recruiting monks again. The recruitment announcement has been posted."
"You have this opportunity that only comes once in a century. Royal recruitment has always been limited in number, and the treatment is favorable. It is mainly based on the place where you are stationed. The risk is not high, so you must not let it go easily."
"At the north gate of Fang City, the person in charge of recruiting is the first deputy general manager of Dauchi, a mid-stage Nascent Soul monk."
When Zhao Shoushou was about to enter the Royal Treasure Pavilion to purchase a batch of supplies, a sound of surprise came into his ears. The monks who were freely buying various treasures in Fang City swarmed away, and as the news spread, there were more
Monks were pouring in from different places.
Seeing this scene, a look of curiosity emerged in his heart immediately, and he couldn't help but follow the flow of monks towards the north gate. From this point of view, the reputation of the royal family here is still very high.
"Every Taoist friend of our family knows the identity of our family. This time, our family has come under the emperor's order to recruit monks above the foundation-building stage to serve as local officials. As long as they can pass the assessment, they can take office on the same day. As for all the relevant benefits,
The notice clearly states, "Recruitment for the royal family, no one can deceive anyone"
Before he even got close, a sharp voice had already reached his ears. It was the Nascent Soul mid-term internal official who was in charge of this recruitment, and he was working very hard to promote the benefits of serving the royal family.
A huge notice was posted on the wall of Fangshi near the official platform, describing the different treatments that can be obtained with different cultivation levels. Suddenly, it seemed that even he couldn't help but feel a little moved. From the early stage of foundation building to Nascent Soul
In the early days, everything was written clearly.
"A monk in the late Jindan period can serve as the magistrate of a local county, assist the county governor in governing all the guards in the county, suppress the forces that oppose the royal family, and offer three thousand high-grade spiritual stones every year. In addition, he can receive a third-grade high-grade spiritual pill every month.
, an additional set of standard third-level high-grade magic weapons is provided, which promises to provide a clear mind elixir when promoted to Nascent Soul."
The high-grade spiritual stone is what it should be. A third-grade high-grade spiritual elixir is enough to meet the needs of a monk for one month, and there may not be any leftover after a year. The third-grade high-grade magic weapon is unified and refined by the royal family, including:
Standard three-piece set of spear, armor and shield.
As for the Clear Heart Pill, it can be used to help resist the invasion of inner demons. It is also the most widely circulated elixir in the world of cultivation and has a certain effect on inner demons.
It is said that this kind of elixir is quite difficult to refine. Even though it is taken by monks in the later stages of the golden elixir, it is no less than some fourth-level mid- to high-grade elixirs.
