Lord God Investigator

Entering the city of Hangzhou, Luo Feng looked around and saw willows lining both sides of the road. The houses in the city had green bricks and green tiles, there were many pavilions and pavilions, there were many ancient Buddhist temples and pagodas, there were many pedestrians on the streets, there were many cars and horses, and there were many canal piers. The upper sail is shadowy, and it looks like a bustling commercial city in ancient times.

Luo Feng planned to go to Shu to try his luck. Since he couldn't become Ling'er's senior brother, he would try to join the Shushan sect and become Li Xiaoyao's senior brother.

Yuhang is thousands of miles away from Shu, and you have to climb many mountains by land. There are monsters in the wilds of the Fairy Sword World, so it is very difficult to travel by land.

Luo Feng thought about going to the Hangzhou City Wharf, hiring a boat to go north along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal into the Yangtze River, and then up the Yangtze River to Baidi City in Shu. Entering Shu by water would save time and effort, and was much more convenient than the land route. .

As for why he didn't take out the Quinjet and fly to Shu. Similar to the situation in Faerûn, the Xianxia world has great suppression on technological creations. Unless you use Xianxia flying props, you can't get into the sky. .

This is like entering the world of Journey to the West and flying a supersonic fighter jet to carry Tang Monk to India to learn Buddhist scriptures. The round trip only takes one day. It is simple and convenient, but due to the restrictions of the world's rules, it is impossible to achieve it.

Walking along the street, most of the pedestrians are dressed as scholars and business travelers. The restaurants, inns, and shops on both sides are decorated in an antique style. However, there are also many two or three-story buildings on both sides of the road. There are plaques with the words "Yihongyuan" or "Red Sleeve Moves". The beauty was standing on the railing. When she saw Luo Feng passing by, she waved her handkerchief and called out: "Sir, come in and sit down, listen to the girls sing a little song for you, and recite poems with you, okay?"

There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. The saying of paradise on earth means that on the one hand it is picturesque and beautiful, on the other hand it is a cloud of beauties like a "man's paradise".

The land of Suzhou and Hangzhou has been famous for its brothels since ancient times. In addition to these girls with fixed places of business, there are also singing girls in wine shops and teahouses, half-open doors in alleys, boat girls from canal fishermen, and women with different temperaments. There were countless beauties, and the countless gold leaves in Luo Feng's pockets allowed him to play and sing every night, and he could live happily ever after in the gold cave.

But Luo Feng didn't have the leisure to look for flowers and flowers, and he just took a quick glance at it. When he looked at the street scene in Hangzhou, he couldn't help but wonder what historical period it was now.

In the world of Fairy Sword, the key building, the Demon Suppression Tower, was built by Emperor Wu of Liang during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. From the words of the monsters who were suppressed in the tower, it can be seen that it has been more than 500 years ago. So we can calculate down the long river of time. , today is the end of the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, many details in the plot do not reflect the historical background of the late Song Dynasty. For example, the capital of the country is in Chang'an, and the Nanzhao Kingdom still exists. If it were the late Song Dynasty, the capital should be in Bianliang, and the Nanzhao Kingdom would have been destroyed for hundreds of years. Well, if we infer based on certain details that appear in the plot, it should be during the reign of Tang Tianbao.

The main reason for the inference is a crude poem written by a brothel woman in the plot. The brothel woman said that a month ago, Mr. Li came to see her and listened to a poem.

The poem says: "In front of the bed, on the ground, I raise my head and lower my head."

The brothel woman said that Mr. Li became very interested in poetry after hearing this. He wrote many good poems and was summoned by the emperor, but he never came to see her again.

Historically, it was during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty that the poet Li Gongzi came to see Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty.

Feeling impatient and confused, Luo Feng grabbed a passerby, raised his hands and saluted, "Excuse me, my dear friend, what year is it today?"

The elder brother who was dragged looked at Luo Feng as if he were a madman. He didn't want to take any notice, but Luo Feng smiled and handed over a gold leaf. The man's eyes lit up and he said attentively: "Master, you are too polite. Why do you need to do this for such a small effort?" Thank you very much, this year is the year of Bingzi, the third year of Shaosheng in the Song Dynasty!"

Luo Feng scratched his head, but he didn't expect that it was the Song Dynasty. The emperor should be Song Zhezong, but why did the capital become Chang'an and why was Nanzhao still there? That Mr. Li is not Li Bai, but which historical celebrity is he?

There was no such thing as Chang'an among the four capitals in the Song Dynasty. Nanzhao Kingdom had long since ceased to exist and was replaced by Dali Kingdom.

"Brother, let me ask again, what is the relationship between our country and Xixia, Tubo, Liao and Nanzhao? Have there been wars on the border in recent years?"

The man looked puzzled and said: "I have never heard that there were Xixia and Liao Kingdoms on the border of the Song Dynasty. Tubo and Nanzhao did exist. Tubo repeatedly invaded our borders and tried to win over Nanzhao. But now Nanzhao's Black and White Miao are in civil strife. It’s just that we don’t have time to take care of ourselves, and the border is relatively stable.”

Luo Feng was confused again. The historical background was a bit confusing. It seemed that Tianbao of the Tang Dynasty and Shaosheng of the Song Dynasty were mixed together, which was very different from normal history.

If you think about it carefully, there are gods, demons, and demons in this world. Golden toad ghost mothers, fox demons, snake demons, and red ghost kings are rampant in the mountains and wild ridges. Demon kings are born at every turn, and all living beings are devastated. It is strange that history can be normal.

Foreign races outside the Central Plains such as the Liao Kingdom, the Jurchens, and the Xixia Kingdom probably had no chance of rising due to the overrun of demons in the borderlands.

The Central Plains has the Bagua array left by the Fuxi clan and the demon-suppressing tower erected by Emperor Wu of Liang to suppress luck. It is much more stable than the same period in history. Otherwise, in another twenty or thirty years, the Jurchens will rise, and the Jin Kingdom's army will They conquered Bianliang and kidnapped Huizong and Qinzong, which brought disgrace to Jingkang.

The shame of Jingkang was caused by the fake Taoist priest Guo Jing, who deceived Emperor Qinzong by saying that he could defeat the enemy with the "Liujia" method. The Jin army broke through. However, in this time and space, Taoism and magic really existed. Liujia's method may really attract heavenly soldiers and generals, but the Jin people's shamanism and witchcraft may not necessarily be able to break the Xuanmen method.

In the world of Fairy Sword, the main conflict is not the conflict between alien races and the Central Plains, and the hardships suffered by the people are not due to military disasters.

In this world, on a larger scale, the world's crises mainly come from natural disasters; on a smaller scale, they are the conflicts between supernatural beings such as gods, demons, monsters, and ghosts and human beings. The people of the Song Dynasty were mostly harmed by demons, so they were not too worried. The dynasty will fall and foreign tribes will attack.

Examining the humanistic environment is also a required course for Luo Feng before making plans. He is good at mobilizing the general trend when doing tasks. Of course, he must understand the main and secondary contradictions in the current world and recognize "who is our enemy and who is our friend." basic questions.

After walking around Hangzhou and conducting some historical background research, Luo Feng came to the canal dock, hired a passenger ship that had been to Shu, and boarded the ship immediately.

The passenger ship went north along the Jiangnan Canal, passed Suzhou, and arrived at Dantu County (now Zhenjiang). From Dantu, it entered the Yangtze River, traveled westward against the current, and sailed slowly toward the land of Bashu.
