Chapter 59: Siege Wei to save Zhao and relieve the Jingshi
Lu Yi watched the Wen brothers fight their horses away, and then turned sideways to Li Mubai and asked, "Brother Li, what is the origin of this Buddha Bathing Festival?" Shocked so many people in the rivers and lakes? ”
Li Mubai said with a smile: "The Buddha bathing festival is one of the most important festivals in Buddhism, according to legend, the Buddha was born on this day, and the later generations of Buddhism in order to commemorate, they bathe the Buddha's golden body with fragrant soup on the eighth day of April every year, so it is called the Buddha bathing festival." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Lu Yi asked suspiciously, "But isn't this a matter in Buddhism?" What are these people doing here? And my master often said that the children of Buddhism have never asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes! ”
"Buddhist disciples just ask about the rivers and lakes, it was a long time ago." Li Mubai sighed, "Since the Tumubao Incident eight years ago, Emperor Yingzong's northern hunting, and the siege of Beijing led by Wara, the border of our Ming Dynasty has also been looted, and the Wara people have burned and looted everywhere they go, and no one can be spared, even the temple monks are not spared." ”
"It is in this situation that the abbot of Shaolin Temple, who has never asked about the world, is grateful for the suffering of the common people and the misery of life, so he went to Saiwai alone, and broke into the Sanfeng Mountain with his own strength and seriously injured the leader of the Sanfeng Sect, Aharahu, and then came to Sali non-stop to fight with Zhao Shengming, who is known as the 'Saiwai Sword God'......"
"No one knows the outcome of the battle between the Great Fool Zen Master and the 'Saiwai Sword God', but since then, the two major forces that the first people are proud of have suddenly died down, without the support of Aharahu and the Saiwai Sword God, and then the attack on the Ming border has been repeatedly blocked, and finally had to temporarily withdraw to the Saiwai."
"After these two wars, the prestige of the Great Fool Zen Master and the Shaolin Temple was unmatched for a while, but at this time, the Great Fool Zen Master suddenly announced that he would retreat and practice, and rarely showed up, that is, many things in the temple were also handed over to his junior brother, the first Great Ninja Zen Master of the Dharma Academy."
"Could it be that the Great Fool Zen Master was injured in a battle with the 'Saiwai Sword God' Zhao Shengming, so he retreated to recuperate?" Hearing this, Lu Yi couldn't help but ask.
Lu Yi had heard his master evaluate several masters in the world, although this Aharahu is unknown in the Central Plains martial arts, but it is a well-known task in the north of the Saiwai Mobei, and the limelight even overshadowed the "Saiwai Sword God" Zhao Shengming, and Zhao Shengming is recognized as one of the four great masters of today's martial arts.
Li Mubai shook his head and said: "No one knows whether the Great Fool Zen Master's trip outside the Saiwai was injured, that is, even the Shaolin Temple was tight-lipped about this matter and never mentioned it, so when people heard that the Great Fool Zen Master held a feast and preached on the day of the Buddha Bathing Festival, they came from all over the world to see the demeanor of the world's first monk." ”
Li Mubai paused for a moment before continuing, "If my expectations are correct, so many masters of the rivers and lakes gathered at the foot of Shaomu Mountain are likely to have something to do with you!" ”
"And me?" Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What does it have to do with me?" ”
Li Mubai nodded and said, "Of course it has something to do with you, don't forget your other identity now." ”
Lu Yi was surprised: "Could it be that the Great Fool Zen Master and Zhongsu Gong are also related?" ”
"Isn't it just related? It's a lot of connection! Li Mubai said, "The night before the Great Fool Zen Master's trip outside the Saiwai, he once met a person in Jingshi, and as far as I know, this person is Zhongsu Gong. At that time, Warat besieged the Jingshi with 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the Sanfeng Sect members of Ahara Hu and the disciples of Zhao Shengming's Shendao Sect were in his vanguard camp. ”
"At that time, my Ming elite soldiers were wiped out in the battle of Tumubao, and there were less than 20,000 old and weak remnants left in the Beijing Division, and Zhongsu Gong was ordered to be responsible for defending the city, and it was certainly not a problem to deal with ordinary soldiers in Wara with his ability, but it was unrealistic to use these old and weak remnants to deal with the martial arts masters of the Sanfeng Sect and the Divine Sword Sect."
"Isn't there still Dongchang and Jinyiwei?" Lu Yi couldn't help but ask.
"East Factory? Jin Yiwei? Li Mubai smiled, "At that time, the people of Jingshi were panicked, and the 'Red Flame Wanli' Wan Yanlie was known as the number one master in the world, so he naturally wanted to shrink in the palace to protect the safety of Emperor Daizong and his old man, as for Cao Guanxue of Dongchang, in addition to bullying others, it was simply a fool's dream to let him go to the city gate to guard the city." ”
Lu Yi thought of the hateful behavior of Jinyiwei and Dongchang along the way, and suddenly became angry, these people have empty skills, but they only know that they are good and evil, and at critical times, they are even inferior to scholars who are powerless, and scholars are at least full of enthusiasm.
Li Mubai continued: "At this critical juncture, the Great Fool Zen Master suddenly appeared in front of the Zhongsu Public Tent, and he was immediately overjoyed, and even set up this clever plan to 'encircle Wei and save Zhao'. ”
Lu Yi secretly said in his heart: "Although it is a clever plan, the trip to Saibei is tantamount to the tiger's den in Longtan, and it cannot be successful unless it is a person of great wisdom and bold knowledge." If the Great Fool Zen Master was replaced by himself, it is estimated that he would have been trapped in the Sanfeng Mountain before he met the 'Saiwai Sword God' Zhao Shengming. ”
Li Mubai continued: "When the Great Fool Zen Master returned to the Shaolin Temple from outside the Saiwai, the siege of the Jingshi had been lifted, and he had been in retreat until the murder of Zhongsu Gong. ”
Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder after we came out of Luoyang City, there were a lot fewer people chasing and killing us, and the people who dared to love Jinyiwei, Dongchang and Wangjianglou were also the masters who bullied the weak and feared the hard, and they didn't dare to spread wild in Dengfeng!" ”
Li Mubai shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, if it is said that Cao Guanxue of Dongchang bullied the soft and was afraid of the hard, it is still possible, but with my understanding of Wan Yanlie, I am afraid he will not give up, maybe he is bound by something, and don't forget that there is also the undying killer organization Wangjianglou." ”
When Lu Yi heard Li Mubai's words, he was immediately a little worried about Master and Yu Xin, and he didn't know what their situation was now? Did you encounter a killer on the road? Have you arrived at the Dragon Gate safely?
"Brother Li, do you think Wan Yanlie has come to Dengfeng?" Lu Yi asked suddenly.
Li Mubai was taken aback, two sharp eyes burst out, and he quickly swept towards the high-rollers galloping beside him, shook his head and said: "Impossible, with Wan Yanlie's character, he likes to make a big show no matter what he does, if he really wants to come, this place is already Jinyiwei to open the way." ”
Having said that, after Lu Yi's reminder, Li Mubai's heart was also a little worried, after all, Wan Yanlie was not Gao Jianfeng, Xiao Farewell and Liuli and the like, if Wan Yanlie personally chased and killed, he and Lu Yi would never have the slightest chance of survival!
"Okay, don't speculate." Li Mubai condensed his heart and said to Lu Yi, "Three days later, it will be the Buddha Bathing Festival, and the top priority is that we first find an inn to live in, and then go to Shaolin Temple to pay a visit." ”
Jingshi, Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi Yamen, Council Hall.
I saw two people kneeling on one knee in the middle of the hall, the man on the left was thin, like a sick ghost, with a sharp double hook hanging from the cold light, and the woman on the right had a waterfall of hair, tied up at the waist, and hung a short sword from the waist.
"My lord, forgive me for my incompetence in my humble duties, and for failing to arrest the two sisters and brothers, I am willing to accept the punishment for my humble duties!" The woman on the right straightened her waist and arched her hand to the red-clothed man sitting in front of her, "It's just that Senior Brother has internal injuries, and I ask you to give me extrajudicial graces......
"Senior sister!" The man on the left hurriedly interrupted the woman's words, buried his head lower, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, this matter has nothing to do with my junior sister, it is all caused by the humble position and the enemy, please only punish the lowly one!" ”
This man and a woman are Xiao Lizhuo and Shen Xingyue, who are chasing Yu Mian and Yu Xin's sisters and brothers all the way to Luoshui, and the man in red sitting in front of them is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, known as the "No. 1 master in the world", and the "Red Flame Ten Thousand Miles" Wan Yanlie.
Wan Yanlie's body was powerful and tall, sitting there still more than five feet tall, his slightly dark face was glowing with a touch of red, and his whole body was full of momentum that was not angry and arrogant.
Wan Yan's blazing gaze swept over Shen Xingyue and Xiao Li's parting eyes, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "You two get up!" ”
"What?" Shen Xingyue and Xiao were stunned when they parted, and they couldn't believe their ears at all.
Wan Yanlie is extremely strict, as long as the task he gives to the people below is slightly worse, it must be a heavy one, not to mention letting go of things like Yu Mian and Yu Xin?
"How?" Wan Yanlie snorted coldly, "Can't you understand my words?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes," Xiao said goodbye and hurriedly agreed, and stood up with the support of his senior sister Shen Xingyue, the two of them each quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at each other, but all they saw were each other's incomprehensible expressions.
Shen Xingyue mustered up the courage and was just about to speak, when she heard a burst of hurried footsteps and shouts, and when she looked up, she saw a young man wearing a flying fish suit and an embroidered spring knife hanging from his waist quickly came to the hall: "Master, the apprentice is back!" Lord Xiao and Lord Shen are also there? She hurriedly nodded to the young man, but did not speak again.
When Wan Yanlie saw the young man who stepped forward quickly, a smile appeared on his face, and he asked kindly, "Qing'er is back so soon?" Is it done? ”
This young man in a strong suit is Wan Yanlie's closed disciple, one of the four sons of the rivers and lakes "Blue Blood Danqing" Yin Danqing, hearing the master's question, he hurriedly replied, "Back to the master's words, the Jinling side has been arranged, you should know that Lord Qiu Ying is responsible for the aftermath, there will definitely be no problems, in addition, Lord He Muyuan has also gone to Dengfeng to pay attention to every move of Shaolin Temple, as soon as there is news, it can be transmitted to Jingshi as soon as possible." ”
When Wan Yanlie heard Yin Danqing's words, the smile on his face became even stronger, and he said appreciatively: "After this trip, Qing'er is more mature, and she is tired from running around in the past few days, so let's go back and rest first!" ”
Yin Danqing smiled, but did not turn around and leave immediately, but looked at Master Wan Yanlie expectantly.
Wan Yanlie asked suspiciously, "Why Qing'er?" Is there anything you can't do? If there is something to say, it is awkward. ”
Yin Danqing smiled again, and then asked cautiously: "Master, I heard that the eldest prince of Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall has come to Beijing?" Really? ”
Wan Yanlie waved his big hand and said, "You stinky boy, you have inquired clearly, and you still ask me if it's really fake?" Hurry up and get out, but I warn you not to mess around, this Lei Qingyi is not to be underestimated! ”
"Master, don't worry, when did you see me messing around?" Yin Danqing said that when he saw the master blowing his beard and glaring, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I'll get out, I'll get out." As he spoke, he turned his head and rushed out as if he were flying.
