Chapter 238: Self-destruction
"What's so lively?" Nanfeng waved his hand repeatedly, "It's better to have more than one thing." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Those two monks are purple qi masters. The fat man said.
"What's wrong with the purple qi master, this is the sphere of influence of the Taiqing Sect, hurry up and hurry, and give birth to right and wrong. Nanfeng said.
The fat man pursed his lips and drove the car with his head bored.
Seeing that the fat man did not slow down, Nanfeng said again, "Hurry up and do it so quickly, I didn't joke with you, and I am not allowed to go." ”
"You tell me to go quickly, hurry up and you are noisy," the fat man turned to deliver the whip, "you come and hurry." ”
Nanfeng knew that he was wrong, and he didn't argue with the fat man, so he waved his hand and didn't take the horsewhip, "Let's go, let's go." ”
After walking a short distance, there was a waterhole on the side of the road, the fat man carried water and drank the horse, and Nanfeng took the opportunity to clean up the feces for the eighth master.
At noon, however, there was a city in front of them, and while seeing the city, the two also saw a large group of people gathered in the open space outside the south gate of the city, and the arc-shaped crowd surrounded the city gate and the area around the city gate that was a hundred steps square.
"Something went wrong. The fat man pointed at the crowd outside the city with his horsewhip.
Nanfeng did not answer, in addition to the passing merchants and a large number of people in the rivers and lakes gathered outside the city, there were also a large number of Taoists and monks, because the periphery was blocked by the crowd, and the situation inside could not be seen.
"What should I do if the city gate is blocked by them?" asked the fat man.
The south wind looks around, this is the main road between the north and the south, and there are no small roads around except through the city.
"Why don't you wait here?" said the fat man.
Nanfeng looked at the sleeping Eighth Master, and then at the carriages and horses that were blocked from the crowd in the north, "It will be suspicious to stop here, go forward, and mix in the middle of those carriages." ”
The fat man answered, shook the reins, and rode his horse forward.
The fat man drove the carriage over, waited until the carriage was parked, and asked a nearby coachman, "Brother, what's going on inside?"
"A group of Taoist priests caught a few monks in the hall," the coachman was a middle-aged man in his forties, who was blocked here and could not move forward, and was miserable by the sun, "Little brother, do you have any water?" ”
"Yes. The fat man got out of the car and brought down a wooden bucket, which was filled with water, but only for drinking horses.
The coachman was very thirsty, where could he take care of so much, he lowered his head and drank, and other coachmen around him also came to drink water, which was good, and half a bucket of water changed to a good popularity.
There are still few people who have received favors from others for nothing, and most people will repay, and the most direct reward at the moment is to tell the two of them what happened here.
To put it shortly, there are a few monks who did bad things and were taken by the Taoist to send them to the official, and the county government suddenly collapsed for some reason, and the county official could only decide the case outside the city.
It's complicated to say in the long run, this matter has to start with the emperor monk, this Emperor Wu of Liang is very out of tune, three times before and after running to the impermanence temple monk, the first two were redeemed by the courtiers with money, the last time the impermanence temple offered 500,000 taels, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military racked their brains, searched and scraped, finally scraped enough, Emperor Wu of Liang put forward two conditions, one is to seal the abbot of the Wuchang Temple Yinguang monk as the protector of the country, the other is to build a temple in the territory of Liang State, a city and a temple, a total of 480.
The two of them knew about this matter, and it had been rumored outside before entering the mountain, but the two did not know how things developed, and they knew that the Manchu Dynasty finally succumbed to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and if they did not give in, they would not succeed, and the emperor would not return to the court if he stayed in the Temple of Impermanence.
With a will, the Yinguang monk became the protector of the Liang Kingdom. As the saying goes, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Tianmingzi of Taiqing Sect was originally the real protector of Liang State, but now there is suddenly an additional protector, and his identity and status have become very embarrassing.
However, Tianmingzi did not attack immediately, but forced his anger and waited for the opportunity, and soon the opportunity came, before he said that the Yinguang monk wanted to build temples across the country, one city and one temple, and if he wanted to build four hundred and eighty temples in two years, he could not build them one by one, and he had to start construction at the same time, and if he wanted to build a temple, he had to choose a site, so Wuchang Temple sent a large number of monks to various places to choose a site to build a temple with local officials.
It is not yet known what kind of situation the monks sent to other places were, but the monks sent here relied on the emperor's weight on Yinguang, and committed many serious crimes such as murder, adultery, extortion, and forcible occupation within a few days of coming.
They also deserve their bad luck, a few days ago he killed a woman surnamed Qian, this person's uncle is no one else, but the prestigious Qingyang Guanguan Lord Tianmo Zhenren in Jiangnan.
Tian Mozi was furious when he learned of this, and led the Guanzhong Taoist to come overnight, and took these monks to escort them to the official mansion.
In addition to the Qian family, several other bitter masters also rushed to complain about the evil deeds of these monks.
What these bitter masters said was based on evidence and could not be refuted by the monks, and the trial ended quickly.
But after the trial, the problem came, and according to the law of the dynasty, these monks should be decided. But these monks were all ordered by the emperor to come down on errands, where did the county officials dare to kill.
I wanted to write a letter to ask the court, but the bitter master headed by Tian Mozi quit, saying that this situation should be asked and beheaded according to the law, and asking the court to ask for instructions is to draw a snake to add to the law, bend the law for personal gain, and have the heart to cover up.
Tian Mozi and the others are not open-mouthed, although these monks came down to do errands, they do not have the status of Qincha, and it stands to reason that there is really no need to ask the court.
It can't be killed, it can't be killed, the county order was forced to have no way, so he could only pretend to faint and try to avoid the disaster, but how could Tian Mozi let him go, and as soon as he pointed down, the county order jumped three feet, and he couldn't pretend to faint.
There was really no choice but to throw a stick and kill someone.
I didn't think that as soon as the fire was thrown out, a group of monks came, these were rescuers who heard the news, but these monks did not come here to rob the Dharma field, but to defend the monks who committed the crime and asked for a new trial.
Those monks were all armed with weapons, fierce and vicious, and the county order did not dare not retry them. But Tian Mozi disagreed, the case had already been tried, and the monks had already pleaded guilty, so there was no need for a retrial.
Seeing that Tian Mozi did not agree to the retrial, those later monks suspected that this matter was a trap set by Tian Mozi and others, in order to design and frame these monks of the Impermanence Temple.
The monks who had already been detained saw that the helpers had come, and they also retracted their confessions, only saying that they had been framed and wronged.
Tian Mozi is not a good stubble, and those monks are not easy to deal with, and soon the dispute turned into scolding.
Seeing that this matter was difficult to get better, the two sides invited helpers to come to help, and Tianmozi's Qingyang Guan was a branch of the Taiqing Sect, and there were many friends of the same sect. The impermanence temple is the head of the temples of the Liang Kingdom, and when it was learned that the monks of the impermanence temple were in trouble, the monasteries everywhere sent masters to help.
At this time, the two sides were still arguing, and the noise inside could be heard from the outside.
After listening to what everyone said, the fat man shook his head helplessly, "What's the matter?" ”
Nanfeng smiled and didn't answer. A discerning person can see at a glance that this matter is a trap set by the Taiqing Sect, and the women are likely to be sent to the door, and it is clear that they want to find fault and teach the Temple of Impermanence. But the monks of the Wuchang Temple are not a good thing, and if they abide by the rules and precepts, they will not be calculated by the Taiqing Sect.
"The county government must have collapsed by Tianmozi, and besides, you can't find a room to judge the case, you have to run to the avenue, these Taoist priests obviously want to ruin the reputation of the monks. The fat man said.
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs, not a single good thing. Nanfeng said.
The fat man snorted at the north, "Listen, it's still noisy." Do you think they can fight?"
"Taiqing Sect has worked hard to create such an opportunity, wouldn't it be wasted if he didn't do it. Nanfeng said.
The fat man stood on the wheel of the car and looked north, "It seems that there are few Taoist priests, only a dozen, and there are still many monks, thirty or forty." ”
Nanfeng reached out and pulled the fat man, "Come down." ”
"It seems that no one from the Taiqing Sect came. The fat man sat down.
"How do you know they didn't come, they should have come a long time ago, but they didn't show up. Nanfeng whispered.
"Why don't you show up?" asked the fat man, puzzled.
"I finally cast the net once, but there are too few fish to catch it. Nanfeng said, he understands the style and methods of Taiqing Sect, this time the pig-headed emperor really did a big stupid thing, Yang Buddha suppressed the Tao too obviously, and forced Taiqing Sect to a dead end, which forced Taiqing Sect to kill the monks in the southern country.
"What net?" the fat man frowned.
"Let's go, it's not safe here, find a safe place to stay. Nanfeng said, Taiqingzong is really angry this time, there are too many monks to stay, and it is likely to kill people, so they have to leave here quickly, and if they leave late, they may be included in the net.
"Where are you going?" asked the fat man.
Nanfeng looked around and pointed to the southeast, "Drive the carriage over, let's hide in the mountains." ”
It took a long time to hear the coachmen tell them what had happened, and during this time many carriages came from behind, and it took a lot of effort for the fat man to drive them out.
Three miles to the southeast was the mountains and forests, and the fat man drove the carriage into the woods, unloaded the wheels, and tied the horses to graze. The fat man carried the dry food on his back and held the fine soft, and the south wind carried the basket and hid in the forest with the eighth master. The two hammers were too heavy to hold and had to be left in the car.
"Let's go to the top of the mountain. The fat man said.
"Don't go, it's easy for them to find out. Nanfeng shook his head and said, he didn't let the fat man go to the top of the mountain actually had another consideration, that is, the monk who did not abide by the rules and precepts was still a monk after all.
It is very cool under the shade of the tree, eat dry food, the fat man fell asleep first, the south wind fed the eighth master before sleeping, when feeding the eighth master, he thought about the impact of the Taoist Buddha dispute on the southern country, the so-called heaven is especially evil, self-inflicted evil can not live, and not to mention that Emperor Wu of Liang has repeatedly become a monk, and he has done nonsense, only saying that he has completely offended Taiqingzong when he built a temple with the title of national teacher, and if he encounters danger in the future, Taiqingzong will not help him.
I don't know how long it took, the two were woken up, and what woke them up was an angry rebuke with aura, "Do you really want to shield these shameless scum?!"
"There is another person who is shameless!" the voice of the voice also helped with aura.
"Get out of the way!"
"Nan no Amitabha!"
"The disciples of Taiqing listen to orders, the monks are not virtuous, they are bad, they defeat the dynasty, they destroy the country, they confuse the king, they take it all, and those who resist will correct the Dharma on the spot......"
