Dimensional Invasion of the Real Earth

681. Chang'an Tea House

"The poor Taoist Taishang Laojun! What do you call a fellow Taoist?"

It's been a long time since Taishang Laojun introduced himself for the first time, and it's a little weird to say these words.

Liu Hao was stunned for a moment, and after carefully looking at the Supreme Lord, he realized that it was a coincidence that he met this legendary figure, the incarnation of a saint.

"Human Liu Hao! I have met the Supreme Lord!"

Liu Hao bowed his hands and bowed slightly to the Taishang Laojun, neither humble nor overbearing. If it was Lao Tzu's sage himself, he would still be more respectful, but he would not respect the sage, but Lao Tzu.

His self-introduction also made Taishang Laojun a little strange. This self-introduction did not expressly inherit it. Thinking about the exercises Liu Hao practiced, it seems to be so.

"The practice practiced by fellow Taoist is the way of 'Tai Chi'?"

"However, as for where it came from, I can't tell Laojun. If Laojun wants to know, he can ask Laozi himself!"

Liu Hao's facial paralysis also disappeared, and it would be better to be calm when facing the Taishang Laojun.

"I see! Pindao understands, these two rings are for you!"

"Laojun's karma is not easy to accept!"

But Liu Hao didn't reach out to take it. In his previous life, he was familiar with some of Honghuang's books, and the theory of 'cause and effect' is vivid in his memory. If he is not careful, others will use it to fill in the hole. No matter how careful he is, he can't be too careful.

Taishang Laojun was not annoyed by Liu Hao's words, but appreciated it very much. The more cautious people are, the longer they live.

"You can exchange two talisman seals with me. Although I wear the way of Zhang Daoling's talisman seals, he only knows how to use them. Why don't you understand divine carvings!"

Liu Hao is not too polite, the old gentleman speaks to this level, if you don’t put it away, you will lose face. He took out a seal of the sky and a seal of the earth, handed it to the old gentleman, and accepted the two rings, He didn't check it either, and just entered the scale space casually.

"Where do you want to go now?"

"Walking south, you should go to Nanzhan Buzhou to see what it is, let's talk about it after walking one step at a time!"

"Do you know the theory of measuring calamity?"

Liu Hao's heart moved,

He felt that Laojun might regard himself as Laozi's hidden inheritor in the world of immortals, but he didn't point it out. Anyway, he didn't say so, and he could justify himself at that time.

"Buddhism spreads eastward, the arrangements from above, what should be done must be done, but the effect will need to be calculated!"

"That's right, since you already know, I won't stop you! The general trend is his, if you want to plan, you have to be more cautious, don't put yourself in it!"

"Thank you, old gentleman. I'm just going to lay out a chess piece at will. Whether it succeeds or not will be decided in the future!"

"Oh? I'll give you a document. With this document, you can go in and out of the Nantianmen smoothly. The environment of Tushi Palace is not bad, and it's also a place for cultivation!"

"Thank you sir!"

Taishang Laojun really thought that Liu Hao was Lao Tzu's secret son in the world of immortals. He was released by Lao Tzu when Journey to the West was about to start. He didn't want to ask which task I took. Darkness is also more suitable. Giving the document is also a way out for Liu Hao. When he is really in danger, he can go to his palace to hide.

Liu Haozheng passed the document directly, but he felt very strange in his heart. He felt that he might be pretending to be big this time, and I really knew about it.

In front of him, he could only pretend, thinking about going to Datang this time, he really had to play a few tricks.

This flight has exhausted Liu Hao. He is now fully aware that relying on Tang Seng to give mortals, and wanting to reach the West Paradise in ten years, it is simply a dream. A person who learns the scriptures is simply a marionette, and everything has already been preordained.

This made Liu Hao even more aware that he should not pretend to be a big-tailed wolf on the way to learn the scriptures. There are countless eyes watching him. With his current rank, if he is not paying attention, he may be smashed to pieces.

After much deliberation, only Datang Chang'an, as the starting point for learning scriptures, can play tricks.

Datang, Chang'an, the size of the city is far beyond Liu Hao's imagination.

In Chang'an City, there are at least tens of millions of people. Perhaps the aura of the immortal world is too full. The physical fitness of the population here is also much higher. The soldiers standing guard at the gate of the city all have the strength of the third or fourth rank, and ordinary people also have one or two. High-level cultivation base, this is not the result of cultivation at all, but it is caused by the environment. It is just the improvement of physical fitness from generation to generation.

Zhuque Street, as the main road in front of the Great Tang Imperial Palace, is linked to countless arterial roads. All the towns and cities rely on these arterial roads for construction. The closer to Zhuque Street, the more precious it is. On the contrary, the price is far lower.

Yangquefang is at the end of one of the main roads. There is a restaurant here. Because of the poor location, the current boss lost money, and the current boss has never died. Today, the boss changed again. People around Merchants were also not surprised, and they all speculated which fool fell into the pit.

The new boss, of course, is Liu Hao. He arrived in Chang'an, and after a day of shopping, he chose this location. He didn't care about making money or anything like that. He chose this place because it was more secluded and had the best sanitary conditions.

After taking down the tavern, Liu Hao asked someone to renovate it. The original two-story structure was occupied by him on the first floor to entertain guests. In the lobby of a hundred square meters, there were many green plants, and he didn't like being narrow. Three tables are done.

Of these three tables, one sits facing each other, and only two people can be accommodated. This table is in the best position, behind the table, there is a lot of space, even if guests bring their entourage, they can still stand a lot;

There is a long table, three people can sit on the left and right sides, and the last table is a round table surrounded by nine tables and chairs.

His tavern can no longer be called a tavern. Its main business is drinking tea. If you meet someone he is used to and can chat with, it is not impossible for the whole table to try the dishes. Others are out of the question.

The customer's positioning can only be the outstanding talents of Datang, so he spent a lot of time arranging bookshelves in it, and tens of thousands of books are placed in it, but if he wants to check it, he needs to nod his approval.

When he arrived in Chang'an this time, he had already made plans for Luozi, and after much calculation, only the "Confucianism and Taoism Hundred Schools of Practice System" was the most effective;

The spread of Buddhism and Taoism, on the surface, is a dispute of faith, but in fact, it is the infiltration of civilization;

The decline of Taoism's self-cutting religion is tantamount to self-destruction of an arm;

This is also helpless. Lao Tzu’s inaction advocates nature and allows it to develop. The original teachings pay attention to conforming to God’s will, so there is not much competition. This makes Taoism weak. Once Buddhism enters Nanzhan Buzhou, it will soon be able to gain a foothold Follow, multiply rapidly, and by that time, it will be too late to stop.

Liu Hao doesn't dislike Buddhism too much. The starting point of Buddhism's persuasion of goodness is still good. However, Buddhism pays attention to cultivating the afterlife, which seems to be fucked. This is completely escaping from reality. For civilization, it is simply Being dragged down, this is also the reason for his displeasure, since he told Taishang Laojun to come to Chang'an to set up a secret, he naturally had to think about it.

Therefore, he chose to open such a teahouse, which is specially designed to attract talented people;

The couplet at the door is very special:

Busy for fame, busy for profit, take a break from the busy schedule, and drink two cups of tea;

Work hard, work hard, have fun, and bring a pot of wine.

The opening was quiet, but the surrounding merchants pointed and pointed, and Liu Hao was not in a hurry, as if willing to take the bait.

After a few days, there wasn't a single guest, and Liu Hao was still not in a hurry.

The winter snow fell, very early in the morning, Liu Hao stood in the window and looked down, frowning. Although the physical fitness of the human beings in the earth fairy world has improved a lot, the supplies are still very backward, and the heating in winter basically depends on shaking. This is only in Chang'an. After entering Chang'an, the people will definitely suffer more. Under such conditions, it is no wonder that the theory of Buddhism and Taoism in the afterlife can become a spiritual sustenance.

Originally, Liu Hao really never thought about developing technology, but the current situation forced him to rethink.

On the street, a little girl was wearing a shabby single dress. The snowflakes were falling. She was trembling badly. She jumped a few times occasionally. It seemed that she was worried about exercising too much and consuming energy, making herself more hungry, and she didn’t dare to continue doing it. She stared at the sesame seed shop opposite Liu Hao, waiting to open it, holding a few copper plates in her hand, looking around from time to time in order to distract herself and dispel the cold in her heart.

Liu Hao often has a strong heart. As an adult, he would just forget it at a glance, but as a child, he seems very uncomfortable. The most he can't see children suffering has become his weakness.

With a sigh, he went downstairs and exchanged glances with the girl, as if startled, the touch of eyes made the girl tremble a little;

As if she didn't feel the malice in Liu Hao's eyes, the little girl raised her eyes again and looked over. This time, she saw the warm smile on Liu Hao's face, saw Liu Hao waving at him, and hesitated for a moment. Maybe it was Liu Hao's kindness. The smile made the little girl walk over slowly.

"Little sister, are you queuing up to buy biscuits?"

"Ok!"

The little girl's voice was very soft, revealing the tension she suppressed in her heart.

"Wait, can you buy some biscuits for me too, I don't want to queue up!"

"it is good!"

Helping others is a happy thing, and it is also a way to prove one's worth. The help Liu Hao offered made the little girl feel more at ease. Obvious smile.

"You helped me buy it, how can I thank you! Yes, I remember that the previous boss left some old clothes, which I wanted to throw away, so I will give it to you as a thank you fee for helping me buy it!"

Liu Hao emphasized the shabbyness of the clothes, emphasized that these clothes were of no value to him, and emphasized that he wanted to throw them away at first, and the use of waste was general, just to implant this concept into the little girl's heart, so that the other party could accept it with peace of mind, and even more so to pay for it. The way of remuneration is given, which respects the dignity of the little girl and makes her understand that this is the reward for her labor.

The little girl's eyes lit up when she heard this, but she still dared not agree. Although she knew that these clothes were of no value to Liu Hao, they were worth a lot to her, and she didn't know what to do.

"However, you have to help me buy it for ten days. As for those old clothes, I can give them to you first!"

Liu Hao saw the little girl's entanglement, and added another weight to the other party. Now, the little girl felt that her labor could be equivalent to Liu Hao's giving.

Liu Hao didn't have any clothes, but during the time when the little girl was waiting in line, he had already fixed them, made them old on purpose, and didn't give too much. There were two sets in total. Watching the little girl happily carrying her clothes, she took Bouncing away with the two biscuits, Liu Hao's heart was still very heavy, and his spiritual sense followed, following the little girl's footsteps to a nearby common people's gathering place.

Compared with the bustling Chang'an, this People's Square is like a slum area, with many people and crowded households. The little girl walked through the maze-like alleys with sesame seeds and arrived at a dilapidated hut. Inside, a gray-haired grandmother was Beat the starch coat.

"Grandma, I'm back! Grandma, I helped a distinguished customer line up to buy biscuits today, and he gave me two sets of clothes, but it's a pity that they are still too small, otherwise I can wear one with grandma!"

"Sister, come and show me!"

The old grandma didn't have much joy on her face, she took the sister's package with her red hands and checked it;

"Grandma, that distinguished guest asked me to queue for him for ten days, but he gave me his clothes first!"

Mei'er's words, on the contrary, let the old lady breathe a sigh of relief. She is not young and has rich experience in life. She doesn't know the meaning of Liu Hao's words, and there is a smile on her face;

"My sister is also very lucky, remember to thank that distinguished guest!"

"Well, my sister knows, grandma, I'll wash it for you!"

"Okay, okay, let's eat first, and then we'll have the strength to wash the clothes after dinner, and the guests are waiting!"

This is a typical family where the grandma pulls her granddaughter by helping others with laundry. The dilapidated hut is only a dozen square meters, and half of the space is filled with the guests' clothes, neatly folded, which is their only source of income.

In this slum area, there are not a few such families, and the number of young and strong is rare. Even if they are young and strong, they all lack arms and legs. Judging from their wounds, most of them are retired soldiers. These people are likely to fight for the Great Tang The orphans left behind lack systematic subsidies, so they have no family support and can only be reduced to the bottom of society.

The aristocratic nobles of the Tang Dynasty would not care about these miscellaneous soldiers fighting for them, they had long taken it for granted.

In the teahouse, Liu Hao made himself a cup of clear tea, feeling depressed. Although this was not his world at all, the civilization was in the same line. He tried to persuade himself to ignore it several times, but he still couldn’t convince himself. sigh.

But he didn't know that when he brewed this cup of clear tea, the fragrance had already spread for more than ten miles. In the Tang Dynasty Hall, which was only seven or eight miles away from him in a straight line, this fragrance directly covered it, making the originally noisy court The hall instantly calmed down, and Dahongpao's unique meditation made them sink into it unconsciously.

When the fragrance dissipated, there was commotion in the court, but the original topic of quarreling could no longer arouse their thoughts, and they discussed where the fragrance came from.
