Chapter 264: The Ascetic of the Small World

Ye Zan and the others booked a room in the inn, randomly picked up some messy things as luggage, and threw them in their respective rooms. After August 1 √√, everyone didn't really need to rest, so they left the inn one after another, and went to the city separately to inquire about the news.

In fact, Ye Zan didn't have to ask the locals for news like other people did. As long as a handful of electronic flies are thrown out, no matter what secrets there are in the city, they will not be able to escape his monitoring. However, it still needs to be done, otherwise even if there is any news, it will be difficult to explain the source to everyone.

Therefore, Ye Zan and the Lin siblings also left the inn and wandered around the city.

At this time, the high-altitude detectors are still continuously detecting the world, and sending the detected information back to Ye Zan. Through the detector, Ye Zan gradually got a general understanding of the world.

First of all, the size of this world is far from comparable to that of Yuqingzong's secret realm. The area of ​​the continent is about 200 million square kilometers, which is equivalent to five times the size of the continent of America in the world of science and technology. Besides land 6, there is still a large area of ​​ocean. The high-altitude detectors have not detected it yet, but the area is definitely not small.

In addition, even the human beings in this world seem to be living and multiplying quite prosperously. Large and small cities are scattered all over the continent, and the population can reach hundreds of millions.

Through the high-altitude detector, you can only see the general situation of the world. If you want to really understand more deeply, you still need the detection of electronic flies. Fortunately, Ye Zan had thought of this a long time ago, so electronic fly delivery devices were installed in those high-altitude detectors.

In the high-altitude detector, after reaching some specific locations, the stealth aircraft flew out of the detector and released the electronic flies into the city where humans gathered. Then, the stealth aircraft will serve as a temporary base station to transmit the electronic fly's signal to the high-altitude detector, and then the high-altitude detector will transmit it to Ye Zan.

Therefore, although Ye Zan didn't seem to do anything while wandering in the street, his understanding of the world was increasing little by little.

Soon, Ye Zan learned another important piece of information, that there is no Taoism sect in this world. Of course, this is not to say that there are no cultivators. People in this world use another form of inheritance in cultivating the Tao, called the Taoist Palace.

This palace is actually a form of academy, just like an academy. There are county schools, prefectural schools, and national studies in the academy, and the same is true for the Taoist Palace. Although not every city will have a Taoist palace, the county-level Taoist palaces are still widely distributed. The city where Ye Zan and others are located happens to have a Taoist palace.

The disciples in the Dao Palace are just like entering a school. After a period of practice, the Dao Palace will evaluate them. This assessment is not for everyone to fight against each other. There are many things to examine,

From the mastery of Taoism knowledge to the pros and cons of personal aptitude, etc., of course, competition is indispensable.

Those who pass the assessment will be promoted to higher-level Taoist palaces, such as from the county level to the prefectural level, and then from the prefectural level to the national level. The national-level Taoist palace is called the Huguo Taoist Palace, and those who "graduate" from the Huguo Taoist Palace will become Huguo Masters.

Therefore, the inheritance of Taoism in this world is neither like the inheritance of the sect nor the inheritance of the family, but has become a national inheritance. It can be said that the vast majority of ascetics are under the control of the imperial power, and while serving the imperial power, they will also receive corresponding benefits.

Ye Zan also had no way of knowing whether this special method of inheritance evolved naturally, or whether Taoist Xuanqing wanted to do some experiments.

Of course, there are also ascetics who refuse to obey the control of the imperial power. Such people will be labeled as evil ways and will be wanted by the Taoist palaces of various countries. In this world, the evil way is just like the evil way outside. It is not about the behavior of the evil way, but about the status of the evil way. It seems that everyone is intentionally maintaining this method of inheritance, and no ascetics who are out of control are allowed to exist.

This is a bit troublesome, Ye Zan originally planned to make up the identity of a hermit monk family for himself and others. Then use this identity to mix in the circle of ascetics in this world, so as to inquire about some more secret information. But now it seems that if he really does that, he and others will become evil ways that everyone shouts and beats.

It was getting late, and everyone returned to the inn from outside. Ye Zan noticed that Lin Mumu looked a little unhappy, so he asked curiously: "Mumu, what are you thinking?"

"Brother Ye, do you think there is a possibility that we are actually no different from them outside. Although the outside world is much bigger than here, who knows if it is also a secret place in the eyes of others?" Lin Mu Wood said a little depressed. Obviously, the situation in this world touched him a little bit.

In fact, in the world of science and technology, there is a similar conjecture. Although human beings immigrated to the interstellar and began to toss desperately in the universe, there may be a pair of eyes watching human toss from above. Just like humans use glass boxes to observe ants, the vast and boundless universe may be like an ant box.

But now it seems that the people in this small world in front of me are like an ant box compared to the existence of Xuanqing Daozu, or compared to the people in the big world outside. People in this small world may no longer know that the world they live in is just a secret realm of others. Then people in the Shenhua domain outside must know their own world, isn't it someone else's secret realm?

This kind of question is actually quite boring, because you will never find the final answer. Jump out of the small world, jump out of the realm of the gods, so the world you live in must be the ultimate world? Who can be sure if there is another world outside, is there another world outside that world?

Therefore, there is no most, only more, this kind of problem is like a ray from a point, and there is never a real end.

However, Lin Mumu's words also caused several other people to think, as if they all turned into philosophers at once. The atmosphere in the room was a bit dull, Lin Miaomiao finally couldn't help it, and slapped his younger brother hard on the head again, and said in a hateful voice: "What nonsense are you thinking, does it have anything to do with you!"

Immediately, the atmosphere in the room changed, and the others couldn't help laughing. Lin Mumu's words almost stunned them, but Lin Miaomiao's words pulled them out again.

"Okay, let's talk about some situations in this small world." Ye Zan drew everyone's attention, and then briefly explained some situations that were easy to explain to everyone.

What Ye Zan said was mainly about the Dao Palace and their identities. After all, judging from the current situation, if everyone reveals their identities and cannot explain their origin, 99% of them will be classified as evil ways.

"Brother Ye, I didn't expect that in this day, you seem to be just hanging out with us, but you already know so many things!" Lin Mumu said in great surprise. During this day, he followed Ye Zan all the time. He basically knew what Ye Zan had done, so he was so surprised.

However, Lin Mumu didn't expect that this sentence would annoy her sister again. As a result, Lin Miaomiao chiselled again, and added another meat bun to his younger brother's head, and said bitterly, "What do you mean we just hang out!"

"Uh..." Lin Mumu also realized how he had told the truth. Everyone went to inquire about the news, but I just wandered around for a day, which seems a bit inappropriate.

Of course, everyone didn't seem to care much about the issue of "hanging out". After all, compared to the information obtained by Ye Zan, what everyone heard this day is actually similar to wandering around.

"So, we have to find a way to find a suitable identity, otherwise we won't be able to contact our colleagues in this world." A grandmaster of Tianfuzong said.

"That's right, once we are identified as evil ways, what we have to face are all the ascetics from all the Taoist palaces in this world." Ye Zan also said helplessly.

The point is that although the information transmission in this world is relatively backward, there is no high-tech thing like Qianli Transsion. However, due to the management method of the Taoist Palace, almost all ascetics have been registered, and it is very difficult to create false identities.

And, more importantly, even if they are not afraid of the ascetics of this world, once they become opponents, how can they find out the information about the mission.

"Didn't it mean that there are still some evil ways? We don't have to deal with people in the Dao Palace, can't those evil ways know some information?" Shi Yingjie said suddenly from the side.

"Well, I'm afraid it's not very good. After all, we are all people in the righteous way, and those evil ways are more like demon ways..." The masters of several other sects immediately expressed their disapproval when they heard Shi Yingjie's words.

The teacher's family is a cultivating family, so despite being very close to the orthodox sect, in fact, the views on the two ways of orthodox and demons are not so black and white. But the other sects are all upright orthodox sects. Although they don't shout all day to eliminate demons and defend the way, they are still quite repulsive when dealing with demons.

However, at this moment, there was a burst of noise outside the inn.

At the same time, Ye Zan also had a smile on his face, and he said helplessly to everyone: "Fellow Taoists, it seems that this time we don't want to be evil."

"Why did you say that, Fellow Daoist?" Someone asked strangely.

"Someone should have exposed his identity during the day, and now the outside is surrounded by people from the Dao Palace. I'm afraid they came here for me." Ye Zan stood up and pushed open the window of the room as he spoke.

"Hiss, unexpectedly... why didn't I notice it before!" Everyone looked out the window, and they saw that the inn was surrounded by groups. Outside the inn, a large number of soldiers were holding torches, and there were more than a dozen monks in sword robes standing in front of the soldiers, as if they were considering whether to rush into the inn.
