Chapter 227 Arrived in Songjiang
The City God Temple in the capital is located in the southeast corner of the city, facing south and north, and is located on the central axis of Kaifeng City of the former Northern Song Dynasty.
In ancient times, cities with water were called ponds, and cities without water were called gods. The two were combined into one, so they were called "City God". The god who guarded the city was what we called the City God or the City God. The city God in one place had the ability to eliminate disasters and resolve troubles, and stabilize the country and the country. At the same time, he was also a judge in charge of the yin and yang worlds. His scope of authority was equivalent to that of local officials in the world. He intended to "search the good and evil of the people and make good fortunes of the people, so that the quiet and clear etiquette would not be spared." That is, after a person died, the crimes and culprits were handed over to the City God for judgment. What we often call General Gan Liu, General Fan Xie, Niu headed and horse face, and wandered around day and night, was the subordinate of the City God's underworld.
According to status, the city god can be divided into county city god, state city god, prefecture city god, capital city god and capital city god, and the county is called "the master god of the realm" and not the city god.
The City God Temple where Bai Zhi and Xiao Ling went this time was actually the "Fu Ming Ling King Temple" of the capital city god. This is the highest city god in charge of the Yinsi in the world, so the temple is also the largest. It is said that even the emperor had to come here to worship in ancient times. Times have changed, although the tradition of the City God is passed down, it is no longer like in the past. There must be a City God in a city, and the City God Temple has become an excellent place for travel and shopping, and is loved by foodies.
At this time, Bai Zhi and Bai Ling were walking on the City God Avenue paved with blue bricks. This City God Avenue is the central axis road leading to the Fuming Lingwang Temple. On both sides of the wide avenue are bustling shops built along the street. Buildings with some Huizhou cultural characteristics are mixed with ancient buildings imitating ancient Kaifeng that can be seen everywhere. The architectural styles of different regions are exchanged together, and they look quaint and full of poetry and painting.
At the moment, the sun is hot. A green landscape tent is propped up to block the sunlight, forming two paths under the shadows. When the crowd walks in the middle, there are many tourists. Alongside are rows of mobile wooden stalls, selling special snacks from all over the country, which has a bit of the flavor of ancient markets.
Xiaoling was holding a box of stinky tofu he had just bought and was eating happily, while Bai Zhi was holding a cup of iced milk tea. She looked like an older sister and introduced Xiaoling where the snacks were delicious. He heard Xiaoling's eyes shining and she looked like she was urging her to lead the way quickly.
"By the way, Xiao Ling, grandpa left you in the capital. He wanted to wait for you to break through to Yuantai before going to my sister's place."
Walking to a long queue of shops, Bai Zhi came forward and lined up and said to Xiaoling casually.
Xiao Ling had just finished eating the stinky tofu in her hand, and threw the cardboard box into the trash can on the side with her short legs. Then she took out a tissue from her small bag and wiped her mouth. When she heard Bai Zhi’s question, she nodded and said, “Yes, the head of the family said, “It’s been a while since I’ve been in the half-step Yuantai, and it’s almost time to hit the Yuantai realm.”
Bai Zhi was shocked when she heard this. Look, is this human language? You know, Bai Zhi was inspired by the spirit at the age of ten and had already entered the realm of Tongxuan at the age of fourteen. Although she didn't dare to say that she was a stunning and beautiful person, she believed that she was also a rare talent who could beautify her.
Now she is sixteen years old, she is about to choose a good day to focus on the middle stage of Tongxuan Realm. But Xiaoling is obviously a few years younger than her, but she has already entered the Yuantai for some time. It is time to reach the Yuantai Realm.
This comparison makes people feel a little heartbreaking.
But she also knew that Xiaoling's situation was quite special.
Xiao Ling's spiritual power naturally overflowed after a little over seven years, and spontaneously completed the spirit-induced energization. At that time, Bai Sihong and his elders were worried that there were not enough outstanding spirit controlers in the new generation. Out of their love for talent, they often "feed" spirit stones. Such preferential treatment is something that few people in the clan can enjoy. Even Bai Yuchen, the "Future Star", is not as good as Xiao Ling's "Good" to some extent.
"Then how are your progress now?" Bai Zhi asked curiously.
Xiao Ling frowned and said with a bitter face: "It's so difficult. I rushed several times, but I always feel something is wrong and I haven't passed yet."
Bai Zhi nodded and comforted: "Don't worry, you're already half a step in the Yuantai anyway, and one day you'll take it."
Although the half-step Yuantai is also a level of realm, it does not have such divisions as the Tongxuan Realm or the Yuantai Realm. To put it bluntly, it is not a realm in the traditional sense. In essence, it is a transitional period that exists as an impact on the Yuantai Realm. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the early stage of the Yuantai Realm. Any spirit controler who enters the half-step Yuantai Realm will eventually move towards the Yuantai Realm.
It’s just that there is a little subtle gap between the real Yuantai realm.
After hearing this, Bai Ling nodded, "I'm not in a hurry, but the head of the family said that this period has been my critical period recently. If I don't want me to go to the eldest lady's place until the Yuantai realm!" The inability to protect Bai Xiao made Bai Ling's body and mind very uncomfortable.
"Then I'll take you out to play, wouldn't it disturb you?" Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment and said.
"No." Bai Ling shook his head and said seriously, "The head of the family told me before that the way of cultivation is to open and relax, and one must be clear and clear, and the combination of work and rest can achieve the best results. This time I came out with the second lady, not to play, but to lay the foundation for the subsequent breakthrough!"
Bai Zhi laughed silently. Of course she understood this principle. She just looked at Xiaoling's serious look, but she was a little surprised that this twelve-year-old girl could actually say "shopping on the snack street" so high-profile! She had the urge to rub the other person's face.
But after thinking about it, she gave up on this idea. Xiaoling hated others rubbing her face. After the personal experience of being "Bai Xiao rubbed her face" last time, Bai Zhi also knew that being rubbed by someone was indeed not that comfortable.
"It's better for you. I've already crossed the Tongxuan Realm to reach the half-step Yuantai. I can't say it. My current goal is to achieve the half-step Yuantai before graduating from college!"
With a gentle sigh, Bai Zhi also set a goal for herself.
It should be noted that the half-step Yuantai can already enter the entire spiritual world.
"Miss Second Miss is definitely OK." Xiaoling said with a smile. Bai Zhi is only sixteen years old this year. In six years, it should not be difficult to reach a half-step Yuantai with her talent.
"I hope." Bai Zhi said with a smile, not worried about whether she could reach the half-step Yuantai. Her cousin Bai Yuchen was at the half-step Yuantai level. Bai Zhi believed that her talent was similar to her cousin. If there was no reason, he could reach it, but he would not reach it.
"I don't know what level my sister is now. The last time I was having a video call with her, I didn't tell me secretly!"
Bai Zhi thought of her sister Bai Xiao again, but she became angry when she thought of this. When Bai Xiao left the capital last time, she was already in the middle stage of Tongxuan Realm. Judging from the time she became a spirit controler, she obviously came from behind and was even more powerful than her sister!
Now that it is so mysterious, there must be another breakthrough.
Wouldn't that... it is already in the late stage of Tongxuan Realm?!
You know how many months she has awakened and has reached the late stage of Tongxuan Realm. Aren’t she afraid that she will make a big move and get rid of the egg?
Oh no, as she is a girl now, it is impossible to tell, it is just... so jealous!
Bai Zhi suddenly felt that compared with Bai Xiao, Xiaoling's progress speed seemed to be worth mentioning at once, because there was a more perverted existence!
"I think the eldest lady is really amazing. Maybe she has really reached the late stage of Tongxuan Realm!" Bai Ling looked at Bai Zhi with a very serious expression.
Speaking of Bai Xiao's cultivation speed, even Xiaoling was convinced. And as a qualified maid and maid, she thought this was reasonable.
Alas, you have to work hard, otherwise you will be caught up by the eldest lady!
...
Just as Bai Zhi and Xiaoling were walking around the City God Temple, eating snacks while walking to the gate of the "Fu Ming Ling King Temple" and were shocked to see the magnificent building with "double-eaved hip roof" that appeared in front of them, a high-speed rail from Binhe City slowly drove into the platform at Xinjing Railway Station in Songjiang City, 800 kilometers away.
As the train stopped, the high-speed rail like a long queue opened the door in unison, and then a stream of people came out of the carriage, among which a tall, fair-skinned and beautiful woman walked out of the inside with a suitcase.
Because the final destination was the capital and Songjiang City was just a place to stay in the middle, Bai Xiao did not drive her Maserati over, but chose to take the high-speed rail.
After two hours of riding, Bai Xiao walked out of the carriage and breathed the air outside, and felt like he was down-to-earth.
As the country's leading city, Songjiang City is also one of the largest railway stations in the country. On average, trains pass or stop in one minute. Naturally, the passengers transported from all over the country are quite considerable. On the pedestrian passage, passengers are coming from afar, dragging suitcases almost every moment.
After walking along the underground walkway for a long distance, Bai Xiao finally arrived at the North Square exit of the railway station.
At this time, she took out her cell phone and looked at the time, at 10:08 am.
She called and told the place that she had left the station. Then she stood at the ticket gate of the North Square waiting for the person to pick her up.
Xinjing Railway Station has a basement first floor and three floors above ground. The ticket entrance is located on the second floor. When you go out, you will find a circular fast passage for taxis and private cars to get on and off passengers.
Bai Xiao waited at the ticket gate for about five minutes, and looked at the private car that kept stopping and driving away, so she half sat on her suitcase and took out her cell phone to send a message.
After a while, she saw a white Roewe 550 coming slowly not far away, but when she was about to reach the ticket gate, she stopped and started a double flash.
Bai Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, yes, it was this car and the license plate was correct, but why did he park there?
Just as she was about to walk over, the ringtone of her cell phone rang.
She answered the phone.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, I've arrived, where are you..." A gentle and nice female voice rang out from the other end of the phone.
"I've seen your car, I'm just a little ahead of you, you can drive forward."
"Hey, I didn't see anyone, please wave your hand and try..."
Bai Xiao had no choice but to raise his hand that was originally on the suitcase and move.
A voice rang out on the phone again:
"Ah, I saw it, you are the one wearing white sunshade?"
Bai Xiao nodded, and then she saw the White Roewe who was originally parked not far away turn off the double flash and drive towards her.
Chapter completed!
