Chapter 105: Qin Zongquan

Since there were no major warlords in the Central Plains at that time, the power of Qin Zongquan began to expand dramatically. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In less than 2 years, Qin Zongquan occupied Nanyang, Zhumadian, Xuchang, Luoyang, Zhengzhou, Sanmenxia and other places, and he became the largest warlord in the Central Plains.

Qin Zongquan, who had been fighting with Zhu Wen for a long time, was completely different from other armies in the process of fighting, and the other armies had to eat human flesh when their own military rations were insufficient. Qin Zongquan, on the other hand, never considered the issue of military rations, and his army used human flesh as military rations from beginning to end.

During the march, Qin Zongquan only needed to carry table salt, and of course people were everywhere. Everywhere this army went, everything was swept away, and the cruelty was similar to the three-light policy of the Sun Banner that invaded China.

Su Ren remembered that the history books once commented on the harm of Qin Zongquan to the Central Plains.

"West to Guannei, east pole Qingqi, south out of Jianghuai, north to Weili, fish rotten birds scattered, people cut off, thorns and hazel cover the wilderness."

To explain it in layman's terms, it is that everything on the land of the Central Plains has been eaten by Qin Zongquan's army, seeing fish eating fish, birds eating birds, seeing people gnawing people, and finally even the green smoke of the people cooking can not be seen, and the fields are deserted, leaving only patches of desolate weeds.

This shows the extent to which Qin Zongquan has harmed the Central Plains, and compared to it, although Zhu Wen in the north is not a good thing, he is at least much stronger than Qin Zongquan.

At that time, there were two main warlords in the Henan region, in addition to Qin Zongquan, there was also Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen's strength is relatively weak, and the territory is also in the Kaifeng area. Kaifeng was the capital of the Henan region, and Qin Zongquan had always hoped to occupy Kaifeng and completely control the Central Plains.

Qin Zongquan gathered troops to launch two sieges of Kaifeng, and Zhu Wen's family was very thin at that time, but he knew what it was to use strength to fight. Zhu Wen asked the warlords in Shandong for help, which means that after I can't stand it, Qin Zongquan's next target is you. After Zhu Wen's flickering, he got the support of the three-way warlord, and Zhu Wen was full of confidence for a while.

In terms of fighting, Qin Zongquan was really not Zhu Wen's opponent. Qin Zongquan not only did not take Kaifeng, but his own army also lost more than half, and this time he and Zhu Wen's offensive and defensive posture had a big reversal. Zhu Wen began to encroach on Qin Zongquan's territory step by step, and then completely isolated Qin Zongquan.

After gradually occupying the territory of Qin Zongquan, Zhu Wen led his army to the city of Caizhou. Qin Zongquan's character is indeed not very good, and in the critical situation of Caizhou, Qin Zongquan asked for help from Yang Xingmi, a warlord in the Huainan region.

Yang Xingmi didn't pay attention to him at all, and handed over Qin Zongquan's letter to Zhu Wen. With no reinforcements outside, Qin Zongquan staged a battle of trapped beasts. Zhu Wen besieged Caizhou in the early summer of 888 AD, but he could not attack it.

The two sides fought fiercely for 6 months, and when Qin Zongquan had eaten up the people of the city, Zhu Wen's army conquered Caizhou. Qin Zongquan was escorted to Kaifeng to see Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen handed over Qin Zongquan to the Chang'an court. Tang Zhaozong, the emperor who could be called the last hope, ordered Qin Zongquan to be beheaded. What is ridiculous is that just before the execution, Qin Zongquan shamelessly shouted "loyal minister" to the prison officials.

Well, some of them are far away, and He Shen saw that Su Ren knew the deeds of Qin Zongquan, the cannibal demon king, and he didn't talk nonsense, so he immediately said in contemplation: "In the late Tang Dynasty, Qin Zongquan used human flesh as food, fierce and powerful, and could stop children from crying, and I don't know whether he did bad things, or was haunted by the people's souls. ”

In the end, I don't know which bastard gave Qin Zongquan's attention, and asked him to make a book out of human skin, write Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", and suppress the evil spirit of the soul with the words of a saint. ”

Hearing this, Su Ren felt a chill, and shook the Tao Te Ching in his hand: "This is it?" ”

"This is indeed the book."

He Shen nodded, his tone was very affirmative, he pointed to the beige "Tao Te Ching" in Su Ren's hand, and said with a solemn expression: "Master, don't look at it, it only has dozens of pages, but it is entangled in tens of thousands of lives. ”

According to rumors, in order to make this book, Qin Zongquan arrested the girls who had not been out of the pavilion for thousands of miles in the station, those with scars on their backs, and those with birthmarks and moles, and picked out the girls with delicate and smooth skin, and then peeled off the skin on their backs alive, and made adult leather paper rolls with special secret methods. ”

There are also the words on the book, these words are not written with a brush, but like embroidery, with an unknown potion, a needle embroidered, the production of human skin paper rolls failed, the size of the embroidery is deviated, before and after, Qin Zongquan for the production of a neatly handwritten human skin "Tao Te Ching", at least thousands of girls died, not counting the people who were implicated when they were arrested. ”

"Master, you said, such a human skin book where the souls gather, who dares to collect it, and who dares to ask for it, isn't it afraid that it will be haunted by ghosts and ghosts, and it will not be a good death, even after Lord Qianlong knows about it, he will find someone to destroy it immediately and cut off the head of the person who pays tribute.

Hmph, if it weren't for those eunuchs who disobeyed the yang and the yin, this book would definitely not have been circulated now······"

He Shen's indignation could not dispel the coolness in Su Ren's heart, looking at the human leather book in his hand, it was as if he saw a girl wailing in pain.

How ridiculous it is to make a paper scroll with the lives of countless people to write the Tao Te Ching of the saints.

Su Ren pursed his lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, moistened his somewhat dry throat, and said silently: "Then did this book suppress Qin Zongquan's nightmare?" ”

He Shen spread his hands and said: "The slave doesn't know, because after the production of this leather book was completed, Qin Zongquan had been besieged in Caizhou City by Zhu Wen and his army, and then he was defeated and his head was cut off, and there is no detailed record of the function of the human leather book." ”

The weather was hot, the sun was full, and the pure black of the little milk cat was really a gathering point to attract firepower, and it didn't take long for him to bow his head and spit out his little pink tongue, and his blue eyes were dripping around, and finally the heat was helpless, and he slipped into his arms along the neckline of Su Ren's t-shirt.

There was suddenly an extra stove on the belly, but it didn't dispel the chill in Su Ren's heart, a leather book, tens of thousands of lives, how could it not make people feel palpitations.

"Master, you ······ You better return the human skin book, since ancient times, making utensils with human bodies has a lot of bad implications. ”

He Shen cautiously persuaded: "These bad things will greatly reduce the longevity of the people, whether it is collecting or making, none of those people's results will end well." ”

After being silent for a while, Su Ren gently stroked the surface of the human leather book, feeling the softness and delicacy coming from his fingertips, and said softly: "I want to keep it." ”

"What? Main ······ The master wants to keep it? He Shen glared and exclaimed.

"Yes."

Su Ren nodded seriously and said, "Don't you think it's strange." ”

He Shen said dumbly: "What's so strange about the minion. ”
