Chapter 57 I will definitely prevent you from entering Tiandu
I have to say that die-hard people are rare, but they are not impossible.
For example, the protector of Maitreya Sect, Shen Tuhan, is in front of me.
Even though he has been captured by Pei Xuanjing, Pei Xuanjing cannot get much useful information from him.
Even with the help of Lin Qingyi, a member of the Jinyiwei family, and using the Jinyiwei's method of interrogating criminals, he still was not able to get too much information out of the other party.
Of course, no information could be obtained from Shen Tuhan. The few people under him were not so stubborn. Pei Xuanjing still obtained some information about Maitreya Cult.
According to the explanations of those people, they came to Zhending Mansion this time to contact a big shot, and the specific things were controlled by Shen Tuhan, and they did not know.
Pei Xuanjing doesn't care about these, after all, these are matters related to Jin Yiwei.
What he wants to know is the composition of Maitreya Cult and how many masters there are in Maitreya Cult.
Based on the explanations given by those people and some clues provided by Lin Qingyi, Pei Xuanjing probably had a certain understanding in his mind.
As a professional rebel, the Maitreya Cult can still be passed down for thousands of years, so it naturally has a certain foundation and strength.
Today's Maitreya Sect has one leader, one deputy leader, two Supreme Elders, one each for teaching, enforcing the law, and protecting the teachings. After that, there are four Dharma Kings and eight Dharma Protectors.
Each of these people are genuine upper-level third-level warriors. Except for the eight guardians who are third-level warriors, the rest are at least second-level warriors, such as the leader and deputy leader of the Maitreya Sect, and The two Supreme Elders are even rumored to be first-class warriors, and have already stood at the pinnacle of martial arts.
As for the so-called protector Shen Tuhan, a pseudo-grandmaster like him is just an ordinary protector and is not among the eight protectors at all.
According to what those people said, Shen Tuhan also became a pseudo-guru not long ago with the help of the guidance of the elders and the resources of the sect, and then he got the title of a protector.
Four first-grade warriors, seven second-grade warriors, and eight third-grade warriors. This is the apparent strength of the Maitreya Sect. These alone have made Pei Xuanjing speechless.
And it is hard for him to believe that this is the true strength of the Maitreya Sect, and there must be a hidden backhand.
"Is this the strength of the top forces? What an exaggeration!" Pei Xuanjing thought.
"Then what strength does the Ming Empire have that can suppress such top forces and can only survive in the darkness?"
Pei Xuanjing felt a little small at this time. Look at these top powers.
In other words, as his strength continues to improve, the true face of this world is also revealed in his eyes.
Lin Qingyi whispered from the side, "It's strange to say that although first-class warriors were not rare in the past, there were not that many. I once heard Lord Qianhu mention it accidentally, as if it was more than 20 years ago From the beginning, the number of first-grade warriors in the entire Ming Dynasty gradually increased, and the number even more than doubled in the past twenty years."
"Huh?" Pei Xuanjing was stunned.
Speaking without intention, listening with intention. Pei Xuanjing felt in his heart that something must have happened more than 20 years ago, which even affected the changes in the entire world, so that such a situation could occur.
The world revives!
Thinking of the novels he had read in his previous life, and thinking about the legendary traces of immortals and gods in this world, Pei Xuanjing made a bold guess in his mind.
And the more I think about it, the more it seems like this is the case.
It seems that this is the only explanation that makes sense.
"It seems that I need to learn something about what happened more than twenty years ago as soon as possible. Even learn about the historical records and documents about this world." Pei Xuanjing thought in his mind. However, this matter was not an urgent matter. He just wrote it down and continued to ask for some information about Maitreya Cult that he wanted to know.
But it is a pity that Pei Xuanjing did not gain much next.
What he wanted to know was that there was no clue as to which member of the Liu family in Anping Prefecture was behind the scenes.
According to what they said, the affairs of the Northwest Path were personally in charge of a Dharma King from the Maitreya Sect, and they had no access to that information at all.
After staying at the inn in Zhending Mansion for a few days, Pei Xuanjing, Lin Qingyi and others parted ways and continued on their way to Tiandu.
In just three days, he had already arrived outside Tiandu City.
The towering city seemed to rise out of thin air, blocking the road like a natural moat.
The high city wall is about twenty feet long and made of black boulders about ten feet long and wide. Black iron is poured into the gaps between the boulders, reflecting the luster of the metal and making it indestructible.
This is the capital of the Ming Empire.
This is the center of power of the entire Ming Empire. Every move that happens here will set off turbulent waves throughout the entire Ming Dynasty.
Although the entire Ming Dynasty had four big cities: Tiandu, Xidu, Dongdu and Nandu.
But in the Ming Dynasty, the Western Capital was just the old capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the Eastern Capital was also the old capital of the previous dynasty.
Nanying Tianfu Although Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty established the capital of the Ming Dynasty after the founding of the country, after Emperor Taizong Jingnan ascended the throne, Shuntian Prefecture naturally became the new country.
Now, after hundreds of years, several Ming emperors have lived here, and the status of Tiandu Shuntian Mansion has long surpassed that of Nanying Tianfu.
Although the Ming Dynasty now claims to have a two-capital system, everyone knows that only Tiandu Shuntianfu is the real capital, and Nanying Tianfu was only retained out of respect for Emperor Taizu.
"Actually, everyone knows that the group of people in Nanying Tianfu are just a bunch of facades!" Gu Ji said with a smile to Pei Xuanjing.
His words were full of pride and pride as an official of Tiandu.
Facing Pei Xuanjing's visit, Gu Ji greeted him with a smile and welcomed him in directly.
What I just said was that I was spreading some news about Tiandu to Pei Xuanjing.
Pei Xuanjing smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Brother Gu, for your advice."
He would not say that he had known about it for a long time, but just smiled and thanked him.
Gu Ji waved his hand and said with a smile, "I haven't had time to say it yet. Congratulations, brother, for your breakthrough to the upper three realms. Since then, your martial arts has been successful and extraordinary."
Pei Xuanjing said modestly, "It's just a fluke, not worth it. Mention it."
Gu Ji smiled and said, "Actually, if you don't know too much, Later, I will definitely prevent you from entering Tiandu at this time, especially from participating in the compilation of the 'Martial Scriptures'."
Pei Xuanjing was moved in his heart and asked, "Why does Brother Gu say this? Is there a secret behind it?”
