Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism
Chapter 107
Xiao Meng had never been to Xianyang, or more precisely, she had never been to any big city.
She was born in a poor family when she was very young, and all she saw and heard were the straw villages around her.
She didn't have much impression of her parents, she only remembered that they were a very numb young man and woman who ignored her.
She was not the only child in her family, but there were several children.
Compared to her, a girl, boys were obviously more valued in this era.
Xiao Meng's childhood was miserable, but she barely had enough to eat.
Until that year, the Qin army passed through the border, and the entire Wei State completely lost order.
Countless people who had no homes and no land took risks and became bandits.
Where they passed, no grass grew, and countless innocent people died under their butcher knives.
Xiao Meng's home and her village were destroyed by these bandits.
She was lucky enough to hide and escape.
After that, she lived a wandering life.
When she was hungry, she looked for weeds and tree roots, and when she was thirsty, she looked for muddy sewage.
She didn't know how long she could live, but as a life instinct, she lived tenaciously and hard.
Then, she met him, the man who influenced her life and would never forget her in this life.
She couldn't remember who her parents were, and had long forgotten what they looked like, but only the man's face was forever engraved in her mind.
She believed that no matter what the man looked like now, even if he aged with age.
She would definitely recognize him when she saw him for the first time.
She was so sure.
After meeting the man, her life changed dramatically.
Not only did she no longer have to worry about eating skewers, he also taught her to read and write, and to practice martial arts and swordsmanship.
In fact, Xiao Meng thought she would stay with him for the rest of her life.
But in the end, she still went to the Taoist Tianzong according to his request.
It was not that she was willing to go to Tianzong, but he said that she was suitable for Tianzong.
In that case, then listen to him.
In the early morning, when Xiao Meng closed her eyes and finished regulating her breath, she stood up from under a tree and found that her mind was in a mess.
When she was in Zhongnan Mountain, she had never had such complicated thoughts, but was thinking about practicing Taoism.
"Maybe he is wrong, I don't think I am suitable for practicing Taoism."
Xiao Meng stood up and whispered softly.
However, everyone in Tianzong said that she was the most suitable for practicing Taoism, because she could treat everything with an equal eye, even life and death, she could completely look down on it.
At this moment, Xiaomeng found herself a little confused.
But with Xiaomeng's understanding, she immediately understood that this was why the master asked her to go down the mountain.
If you don't experience the world, how can you leave the world?
She will definitely find the answer to her confusion in this world.
The gates of Xianyang City had already been opened.
She walked into the city with many villagers who had been waiting outside the city.
Xiao Meng was wearing a light green summer dress. Her eyebrows and hair were all white, except for a dark black streak on her bangs, like the yin and yang of Tai Chi.
With such a dress and such a unique appearance, anyone who saw her knew that she was not an ordinary person.
Especially Xiao Meng's calm temperament and the whisk in her hand made people know that she was unusual.
This is good, that is, Xiao Meng has never encountered any trouble along the way, and no matter how blind or amazed by her beauty, she dare not be presumptuous.
As the largest city in the world today, Xianyang City is very lively. (To read the most exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
The Wei River divides the entire city into north and south, with a clear distinction.
Early in the morning, countless vendors were hawking their goods, and the lively atmosphere made Xiaomeng stunned for a moment.
The only big city she had ever been to in her life was Daliang of Wei.
But when she went to Daliang, Daliang City had just been broken.
The entire city was still a trace of war, and the only things that could be seen on the road were patrolling soldiers, and there were no busy vendors at all.
After arriving in the city, Xiaomeng was not in a hurry, as the Xianyang Palace was there and she could not run away. Instead, she was interested in strolling around the Xianyang City Center.
With Xiaomeng's current martial arts level, she has almost reached the state of fasting, but looking at the dazzling array of snacks, she was also a little moved, showing her rare lively side of a girl.
She bought a piece of candy, put it in her mouth, felt the sweetness, and said to the vendor: "This tastes good."
The vendor smiled and said: "We have to thank His Majesty for inventing these candies and allowing them to circulate among the people, so that we can taste this sweetness.
We have never eaten such delicious food before, and we all ate malt.[]
Is this your first time in Xianyang? You can go to the restaurant over there, where they sell snacks, and those snacks are really delicious."
As he spoke, the vendor couldn't help but wipe the corners of his mouth.
Xiao Meng nodded gently and left here with a calm look.
She continued to walk around Xianyang City, and bought some to try whatever she wanted to eat.
Gradually, she heard more news about him.
Among the people, at least in Xianyang, he has a high prestige, and the people are full of praise for him.
Whether it was flour or sugar, it allowed these things that were only seen in the homes of the nobility to be circulated among the people, and even taught people how to grind flour.
In this way, those who had no one before couldThe wheat for food has become a hot commodity at this time.
"The grinding wheel is very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it."
"But His Majesty requires each village to build a grinding wheel. As long as it costs a small amount of money, the villagers can use it. Now many places have begun to grow these wheats."
"The flour made from these wheats tastes great, and it's also filling."
Chatting with people along the way made Xiaomeng understand a lot about the world.
Not long after, she saw a clinic very close to the inner city, and many people were queuing up.
She went over to ask and found out that the doctor here was going to do charity work today, and he would treat you for free and even give you a medicine.
This made many poor people rush here.
It is impossible to allow so many people to gather in this place close to the inner city.
But the owner of this clinic has a great background. She is the descendant of a medical family and has a close relationship with the current emperor.
When Xiao Meng heard the descendant of a medical family, she thought of Duanmu Rong who had treated her before.
She entered the clinic with a ethereal figure. She did not see Duanmu Rong at the front desk and walked to the back.
No one could notice her, so Xiao Meng easily entered the backyard of the clinic.
In the backyard, she saw a girl who was a few years older than herself and was busy in plain clothes. She called out in a calm tone: "Sister Rong."
