Dreaming about the world, embarking on the path of spiritual practice

…

House seemingly endless rain.

At night, a heavy rain suddenly fell in Chang'an City, with heavy rain and lightning and thunder.

Accompanied by the aftershocks of the earthquake, this made it even worse for the people who had not yet recovered from the disaster.

"Natural disasters are merciless!"

Rumble~

There was a roar of thunder and lightning in the sky, and the aftermath was rising again underground.

At this time, even though Yu Liang had extraordinary abilities, they seemed so insignificant in the face of the disaster. At this time, he could only do his best and obey fate.

The sound of uniform steps suddenly came to my ears.

Yu Liang looked up and saw a large group of soldiers arriving. Their uniforms were more sophisticated and dignified than the previous soldiers.

"This is the Forbidden Army dispatched!"

The person commanding this forbidden army is not a general but an imposing and noble young man. He wears a towering crown, a red robe, a jade belt around his waist, and various accessories hanging below. Black high boots.

This kind of attire shows this person's noble status, Prince!

Rumble~

Suddenly there was a burst of thunder in the sky, and another aftershock of the earthquake followed. Everyone was well prepared, and with the prince sitting in charge, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner!

Have a rough night.

The sky turned white, the thunder stopped, the heavy rain gradually became smaller, and the aftershocks stopped appearing.

When the sun rises, it seems to indicate that all disasters are over.

In the next few days, Chang'an City quickly entered into the reconstruction work.

In addition to the government's disaster relief, various Taoist temples and temples have also launched sacrificial activities to ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people.

It's just that compared to Taoism, the Water and Land Dharma Conference jointly organized by Buddhist temples is more grand, and it has gained a lot of popularity for its ability to save the dead and comfort the people.

Everything in Chang'an City seems to be developing in a good direction, but there is an undercurrent.

Natural disasters have always been God's punishment for unscrupulous emperors.

Yu Liang heard some secret discussions about the emperor from the mouths of some common people. They were talking about people with noses and eyes. It would be strange if no one spread it deliberately.

noon

Yu Liang was sitting in a restaurant eating.

"Have you heard that something evil happened to Old Yang's family on East Street last night? The family was sleeping well at night. Suddenly, they were attacked by an invisible monster. The whole family's head, face, limbs, abdomen and back were all covered with cloth. It’s full of burns, it’s scary!”

"There is something like this, please tell me in detail."

"..."

Yu Liang listened to such market rumors as a matter of fun.

But in the next few days, there were more and more such rumors.

The vixen seduces men in the middle of the night, sucking them dry and killing them.

Bloody water appears in the wells, and everyone around them suffers from strange illnesses.

Ghosts knock on the door in the middle of the night; man-eating beasts appear...

People in the city of Chang'an couldn't help but feel panic, and the rumors became more and more intense, saying that the king was immoral, disasters were coming from heaven, there were monsters in the country, and the country was in disgrace.

Is this an earthquake that shakes out all kinds of monsters and monsters?

night

Yu Liang deliberately wandered around Chang'an City without rest. He was very interested in all the strange things people said and wanted to see what these evil spirits were.

Pu Ling Leng ~

In the dark night, a group of bats flew overhead. Yu Liang looked up and didn't pay much attention.

But just as he was about to leave, he saw a group of bats frantically crashing into the door of a house.

what's the situation? Yu Liang waved his hand, and all the bats died and fell to the ground. He stepped forward to check and found that the door of this house was smeared with blood. It was no wonder that the bats kept hitting the door.

“Someone kept knocking on the door in the middle of the night, but when I opened the door, no one was there.”

"This is the ghost knocking on the door in the rumors!"

Yu Liang continued to wander around Chang'an City.

Suddenly there was a scream in his ears, and he ran over quickly. The sound came from a room in a house.

After entering, I didn't see any monsters, but I saw a family of two frantically swatting at a small insect.

Yu Liang frowned slightly, raised his hand and pinched a small insect. It had a black head, a transparent abdomen, and a pair of small wings on its back.

In his eyes, the bugs would bite people. Every time the two of them killed a bug, a liquid would flow out of the bug's body. If it sticks to the skin, it will corrode the skin and cause injuries similar to burning.

With a wave of his hand, all the poisonous insects died and fell to the ground, then left directly.

Bats, poisonous insects, no monsters, they are all just people pretending to be gods!

If this is the case, then he has no interest.

Yu Liang wandered around the city again and came to Chunxiang Courtyard unknowingly.

There were rumors that there was a vixen here, so Yu Liang stepped forward to check it out.

"Hey, guest, you haven't been here for a long time!"

When the old bustard saw Yu Liang coming, he immediately came forward to entertain him warmly.

After taking out a lot of money, Yu Liang said: "Arrange a private room for me!"

"okay!"

After taking the money and welcoming Yu Liang into a private room, the old madam smiled and asked, "Which girl does your guest want to accompany you?"

Yu Liang replied: "I heard that someone encountered a vixen in your place and was sucked to death. Is it true?"

Hearing his inquiry, the old madam smiled and said: "Hey, the guest is also here for Xiao Yi? Then you don't have enough money!"

"Xiaoyi is a vixen?"

Seeing Yu Liang's puzzled expression, the old madam smiled mysteriously and said: "Xiao Yi is not only beautiful, but also has great kung fu. There is no man who can walk out of her room the next day. Do you think she is a vixen?" "

Hearing this, Yu Liang finally understood what the news about this vixen sucking people was about, and he immediately lost interest and got up and left.

Return to your hotel.

What a monster, it’s just a conspiracy of conspirators!

Chang'an City is now the center of a whirlpool. Yu Liang no longer wants to stay here. He doesn't want to encounter any trouble because of this.

Rest for a night, leave tomorrow, and then find a secluded place to practice in peace.

the next morning.

Yu Liang first came to Jinchengmen Mansion, intending to say goodbye to Dai Ling'er and the others.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the old woman Zhou leading Dai Ling'er to practice dancing in the courtyard. They all wore masks on their faces.

Seeing this mask, Yu Liang remembered the night when the old woman Zhou was "tranced" chasing him.

Stand aside and watch their performance without disturbing them.

The old woman's "trance" is to hypnotize herself into the role in the way of an actor's performance. The more immersed she is in the performance, the deeper her "trance" will be.

The reason why they wear masks is because this method of "trance" is still very dangerous, and actors can easily get too deep into the drama and be unable to get out.

So I put on a mask to enter the play and take off the mask to play, using this method as a means of control.
