I didn't excuse myself, I walked back to the bedroom, I didn't take off my clothes, I fell on the bed, and immediately fell asleep.

Before, I didn't dare to rest at the same time as the general, there had to be someone who was awake and kept guard in the living room. People in the rivers and lakes, even when they sleep, they have to keep one eye open. Otherwise, the slightest negligence can send people to the crematorium. Moreover, I don't dare to ignore Zhao Tan, whether he is pretending to be crazy or really crazy, he is a very harmful *. Once it explodes, the general and I are dead.

In my dreams, I saw an overwhelming number of ancient scriptures stacked on top of three stories high, at least tens of thousands of copies.

In the scriptures, countless red-haired and blue-eyed foreigners are bending down to check what they should be looking for.

I know that most of the books are useless, and only a few, if not a few, dozens, hold secrets.

The Eight-Nation Coalition is competing for the Central Plains, and what they really want to grab is these "useful" scriptures.

"Japan sent so many Tang envoys to Chang'an, most of them were useless pretenses, and they paralyzed the emperor of the Tang Dynasty by studying poetry and songs, astronomy and geography, and opened the door for Japanese friends. As a result, people with ulterior motives such as Oda Oninu will take advantage of this invasion to collect useful information.

In the Tang Dynasty, the two major sensational events surrounding the Buddhist scriptures were "Xuanzang taking scriptures" and "Jianzhen Dongdu".

I keenly associated Xuanzang, Oda ghost slave, and Jianzhen with the three for comprehensive consideration.

Oda Onino once said, "Seek scriptures for the sake of our country's strength," and it is obvious that his goal has always been to "seek scriptures," and by "seeking scriptures," we can make "our country strong."

Under Li Tang, Zhao Song is also a powerful country.

Historically, the emperors of the two Song Dynasty believed in Taoism, and there was no large-scale "seeking scriptures and chanting scriptures".

"So, the two Song Dynasty perished so tragically, first the 'Shame of Jingkang', and then the 'Death of Yashan', is it because they didn't find the 'Scripture of a Strong Country'?" I asked myself in my dreams.

Reasoning more carefully, Daqin, Liu Han, Li Tang, and Zhao Song were all governed by the Han nation, while Mengyuan, Zhu Ming, and Manchu ruled for other nationalities. Could it be that it was because the Han Dynasty lost the "scripture of a strong country" that led to the collapse of the balance of victory and defeat?

If the metaphysical treasure of the "Sutra of the Strong Country" really exists, could it be that it was stolen by Oda Oni and shipped to Japan?

"It is the responsibility of all the people of the Chinese nation to find the 'scriptures of a strong country' and seek the scriptures for the strength and prosperity of our country. The problem now is not just 'seeking scriptures', but other small countries are also deliberately searching for scriptures, in a vain attempt to seize the first place in the balance of national rivalry. "I told myself in my dream, "Stand taller, take a longer-term view, although you are in Dunhuang, you must think about the problems outside of Dunhuang, and take into account the tilting and competition of all countries in the world." ”

The life and death of a person, the gain or loss of a city, the ownership of a treasure, and the victory or defeat of an event...... It doesn't matter. Whoever can stand on the level of global hegemony and fight for the fate of a great power will have a winning opportunity on the 21st.

In the rivers and lakes, the way of serving the country is naturally different from that of people in the court, and many times, even if you do great things that benefit the country and the people, it will not be recorded in the official history.

In this sense, I would even admire a Japanese patriot like Oda Onito.

They risked their lives to enter the Central Plains, tossing and lurking, with the only goal of achieving their mission. It can be said that they changed the fate of Japan, but did not become famous figures who shocked the world.

A true patriot should be like this, only caring about the wind and rain, and not looking at the monuments of the world.

"Seek scriptures for the strength and prosperity of our country—magnificent!" I admire the courage of Tang Xuanzang, a high-ranking monk of the Tang Dynasty, to learn scriptures from the West, and at the same time, I also admire all the efforts made by the Japanese Oda Oninu, a Japanese, for the rise of Japan.

"An enemy is near." I woke up suddenly, and my sixth sense made all the cold hairs on my back stand upside down.

It's been a long time since I've felt this way, and the last time I remember being attacked in my sleep was when I was at the Tsim Sha Tsui Resort on Hong Kong Island. In that battle, I did my best, one person, two guns, to protect Lei Dongtian unscathed out of the siege and return to Perak Hall.

The more dangerous, the more courageous, this is the true nature of my walking rivers and lakes.

I rolled out of bed, groped the back of the second drawer on the bedside table, and pulled out two fully loaded and *fully screwed short guns.

These weapons, all confiscated from local gangs, were not intended to be used, but now they have to be used.

The general quietly pushed the door open and stooped in.

"Someone invaded, it's Lao Sheng's people." She said.

I couldn't help frowning: "Didn't you see Master Cha and Aunt Cha?" ”

The general shook his head: "No, I only saw Lao Sheng and seven other people from the telescope." ”

"Is there an eight-seater van parked on a nearby street? If there were another car, it would prove that not just eight people came, but more. I asked.

The common commercial vehicles in Dunhuang are Buick and Honda, with a total of eight seats, including the driver.

It's daytime and there is no possibility of overloading. So I judged that if there was only one car, it would already be all the people brought by Lao Sheng.

"Well, two blocks away, there's a Buick van parked. There was only one and no other cars. The area around Dongcheng is Lao Sheng's territory, but Bai Dao is checking tightly, and it is impossible for him to find more thugs in a short period of time, and seven people is already the limit. The general replied.

"Be optimistic about Zhao Tan and let the enemy in." I commanded in a low voice.

I don't want to get the attention of my neighbors, especially the long-tongued women in the streets. They spend their days in a panic, wishing that something special would happen, preferably something big that would make TV news and headlines, so that they could be in the limelight in front of reporters.

On the contrary, wait for all the people in Lao Sheng to come in and then fight, and the noise produced by the muffler will not be more alarming than a slap.

"It seems that Lao Sheng wanted to eat black and did it without telling Cha Ye." General analysis.

She said very reasonably, in the rivers and lakes, as long as you have the ability, black eats black, black eats white, and black and white can eat all. The premise is that if you don't vomit up after eating indigestion, it will be ugly and terrible.

"Extreme cripple, stay alive, don't kill." I told the general.

There is a huge difference between maiming and homicide, the former is a street disturbance and gang fighting, while the latter is a serious crime in any country or region, and it is a taboo for gangs to do things.

"I'm not sure." The general shook his head, "Lao Sheng is not a vegetarian. ”

I smiled: "You go and see Zhao Tan, I'll deal with Lao Sheng's problem." ”

In my opinion, Lao Sheng is actually not a problem. If he honestly follows Cha Ye to get a piece of the pie, then there is a solid alliance between them, with a deep heritage, which is not easy to break, and it is a strong rival between me and the general.

Now, he is rushing to do it, and he regards "grabbing people" as a top priority, so he is completely putting the cart before the horse.

It is enough to prove that his IQ is much lower than that of Cha Ye.

I remembered again that Cha Ye placed a hairpress under our wheels*, which is what a veteran should do.

Before placing *, he ordered Aunt Cha to send us Zhao Tan's confession and distract us with the sensational news contained therein. He almost succeeded, but unfortunately he met the same veteran Jianghu who had experienced a hundred battles.

"Cha Ye is a big trouble and must be solved. Otherwise, if he releases Zhao Tan's news, it is likely to attract the attention of the Northern Emperor, and it will be troublesome. "I started to worry about one other thing.

This bungalow has a front and back yard, but the only exit is in the front yard.

I heard a "pop" behind the house three times, proving that three people had come in from behind the wall.

Looking out of the small kitchen window, there were indeed three young people approaching quickly against the wall.

According to the rules of tactics, they are surprise soldiers, and they will only wait for their companions in the front yard to start attacking, and then wait for an opportunity to enter the house.

The contact points of Cha Ye, Lao Sheng and others were funded and established by the Yellow Flower Society, so I judge that when these people conduct collective operations, they must use the group tactics of the US military.

You know, military experts from all over the world are studying how to defend against American-style group attacks, and even * is familiar with this. It's a pity that Asian gangs have never paid attention to this, and they still arm themselves with the old Delta Special Forces group tactics, Ranger Alley tactics, and Navy SEAL stealth assault tactics, and they also call it "American-style combat methods", which is really speechless.

The rivers and lakes also need to keep pace with the times, and once any technology is outdated, no matter how brilliant it was, it will only bring * annoyance to users.

I left the back window and turned to the front door.

There were five people at the front door, and I could easily spot which one was Lao Sheng - a lewd man in a black suit with a lot of hair wax walking at the back, taking advantage of the cover of the four people in front of him, constantly waving his hand to the four of them to rush forward.

Of course, these people will not be my opponents and the generals, we know it, and Cha Ye knows it.

"It's just using some ignorant little people to explore the way, killing them is really dirty your own hands." I inserted two guns into the holsters under my armpits and picked up the stainless steel baseball bat by the door.

For the current ruffian-like attack, there is no need to shoot, and a baseball bat will solve the problem.

I opened the hidden lock and latch of the front door, and the other party could easily enter by simply turning the doorknob.

I also noticed just now that none of the eight men were carrying guns, but each holding an earthen dagger.

If it weren't for the quick resolution of the battle, I would have saved even a baseball bat and could have dealt with eight people with just hand-to-hand combat.

The front was finally pushed away, and five people crept in and stood in the living room.

"It's all light, and if you find someone, take it away." Lao Sheng said.

I slowly paced a few steps forward and greeted the five from the side: "Looking for what?" Can I help you? ”

Except for Lao Sheng, the other four people pounced on me at the same time.

Although the daggers they used were made of earth, the blades had a cold gray glow, proving that they were made of the best cold-forged steel, and that they had been carefully opened and used well, enough to kill without blood.

I was very decisive, the first time I smashed the opponent's dagger, and the second time I directly shattered the shoulder blade of the opponent's hand holding the knife. Injuries here not only lose the ability to attack, but also cause severe pain in the body, and you can't move at all.

It took only five seconds to knock out four people.

Lao Sheng was stunned and looked at me in a daze.

"Lao Sheng, are you here to find the general of the Yellow Flower Society?" I asked.

Lao Sheng was dumbfounded, and immediately hid the dagger behind his back.

"What did Cha Ye tell you? Tell me word for word. One word less, and you'll have to try, is your head hard, or my baseball bat hard? I said coldly.

We had an accident in Cha Ye's shop, and it seems that Cha Ye contacted Lao Sheng as soon as possible and rushed to the health building of the Fifth Municipal Hospital together. It can be seen that Cha Ye's eloquence is also amazing, and he quickly persuaded Lao Sheng, and the two formed an alliance to seek great wealth.

"I don't know anything, Cha Ye said, the person was taken away, and he asked me to bring someone back. For the rest, you can tell Cha Ye to go yourself. Lao Sheng said.
