Chapter 178: Xiuning, Happy Birthday!

The four of them walked out of the two-zhang wide Fang Street, entered the seven-zhang wide East Fourth Street, and finally came to the nine-zhang wide "North and South Heavenly Street".

As soon as Li Luo went to the "Heavenly Street", he didn't have time to observe when he heard a "rumbling" sound of horses' hooves galloping towards him. Pedestrians on the street stopped to watch, and then a fast horse galloped first.

The Mongolian knight on the horse shouted: "Lord of Yunnan, also Timur, like an eagle flying thousands of miles, he flew to the great capital and Tuo to celebrate the birthday of his great grandfather!" ”

Zhang Sanfeng said: "It's the king of Yunnan who has returned." ”

After the knights who opened the way, there were hundreds of Mongolian cavalry with the banner of the blue wolf and white deer, and then 300 red soldiers with the banner of horses.

It was the first time for Li Luo to see so many Yuan army cavalry, and he couldn't help but have his pupils constricted a little.

Is... Man is more dead than man.

Li Luo now has thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, and he was originally very proud. But now seeing these hundreds of yuan troops, it suddenly made Li Luo's heart cold several degrees.

Not to mention the Mongolian cavalry that is one with the war horses, and the three hundred Tanma Red Army behind them are all extremely fierce, everyone looks solemn and sharp, and the momentum is sharp, it is really like a tiger and a horse like a dragon.

Every knight seems to be a warrior with an extremely strong fighting spirit.

There were only hundreds of cavalry, galloping like thunder, full of tension, and even rushed out of the army of thousands of horses.

Can your thousands of recruits stop these hundreds of cavalry? Li Luo was skeptical.

And such elite cavalry, Kublai Khan had hundreds of thousands.

If you don't develop firearms, you can rely on cold weapons to fight against the Mongol cavalry......

Li Luo inadvertently revealed a trace of emotion, which was keenly captured by Zhang Sanfeng. The Taoist priest found that this young man, who did not look like a Goryeo, became more and more interesting.

After a few hundred cavalry, there were more than a dozen carriages full of things, which should have been gifts.

After the limousine, there is the white horsetail hair of the king of Yunnan, and under the big chariot, a group of warriors surrounds a Mongolian boy with a cold look and luxurious costumes.

The Mongolian boy had a falcon on his shoulder, and on his horse, a big lama in red sat on his horse.

The Mongolian boy was the second king of Yunnan, and the grandson of Kublai Khan was also Timur. And the big lama next to him is the king of Yunnan.

When the people on the side of the road met the king of Yunnan, they all bent down to salute with their hands on their hearts and chests, and Li Luo also made a symbolic appearance.

The young king of Yunnan didn't even glance at the pedestrians on the side of the road, but just looked preoccupied.

But Wang Shi Jie Siduo beside him looked at Zhang Sanfeng who was wearing a Taoist robe. Nowadays, the contradiction between monks and Taoists is acute, and he has launched two polemics in front of the Mongol Great Khan, but the result is that the Taoist debate failed, resulting in a large number of Taoist priests changing their courts to monks.

This makes Taoism even worse, and it also makes the relationship between monks and Taoists the same thing.

The great lama looked at Zhang Sanfeng, and suddenly left the army of the king of Yunnan and came towards him.

"Daoist, how many apocryphal scriptures do you have in Taoism, do you know?" Jie Siduo sat on the horse with a smile, he was obviously wearing a golden silk monk's robe, and he was not young, but there was an indescribable evil spirit.

Zhang Sanfeng said lightly: "Taoism has no apocrypha. ”

The Grand Lama laughed and said, "It's good, it's good!" Taoist priest, you should have heard of the third Buddha and Taoist fighting method, right? It was at this Great Khan Longevity Conference. This time, I'm afraid that even the Tao Te Ching will become an apocryphal. At that time, the Great Khan will issue a decree to ban the Heavenly Taoist Scriptures. ”

Jie Siduo is very proficient in Chinese and sounds effortless.

After he said this, he didn't wait for Zhang Sanfeng to speak, and left straight away.

Li Luo only shook his head, these lamas, one by one, are masters, but they are full of competitiveness and competitiveness, where is there any demeanor of a great monk? It's no different from a smug little person.

After Zhang Sanfeng's experience, his face also turned cold, his eyes were gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking, completely losing his previous indifference. "This lama is just a prostitute monk who practices great joy, and he dares to speak out. Morning and evening took him away. ”

Li Luo almost burst out laughing. This Taoist priest finally broke through the world and exposed the fireworks in the world,

"Li Tanyue, the poor road has gone. There is a fate to meet again, and there will be a period later. Zhang Sanfeng suddenly saluted, then turned around and left.

He said that he would come, and he would leave as soon as he said, and he was really free and easy. But Li Luo knew that Zhang Sanfeng's heart was in turmoil.

In this third debate between monks and Taoists, the Taoists lost even more, and they simply lost face to their uncle's mother's house. This time, Kublai Khan almost burned all the Taoist scriptures except the Tao Te Ching, and the entire Taoist family was dealt a huge blow.

It was after this time that Taoism, which had historically been fighting against Buddhism, fell into decline and collapsed.

Zhang Sanfeng most likely went to his "Taoist friends" to inquire about the situation or discuss countermeasures.

After all, if there is really a "Tartar Emperor Extermination", they have no good fruit to eat, and there are no eggs under the nest?

This is religion! Ordinary people can believe, and it should be regarded as a spiritual sustenance. But the ruler of the superior must not be taken seriously.

Li Luo lowered his head and thought as he walked, how should this Taoist be used? How to use Buddhism?

"Bell-" The huge bell suddenly rang, interrupting Li Luo's thoughts. He looked up and saw a ten-foot tall platform in front of him, from which the bell was ringing.

This is the famous giant bell of the central pavilion, and when the bell rings, the whole city hears it. It is said that the bell tower has the world's most advanced copper engraved pot leak and other timekeeping instruments.

Not far from the central pavilion, there is another building, which is still brightly lit at this time. Li Luo and the others walked over and found that it was a 'Persian temple'.

The Persian temple is actually the "Qinjiao" church. The so-called Qin religion is the West Asian branch of Christianity: the Nestorian sect.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the Persian Christ (Nestorian) was very powerful, second only to Buddhism. So much so that the emissaries of the Holy See could not move an inch in most of the capitals, but were branded as "heretics" by the heresy of "Persian Christianity".

After the Mongol Empire occupied the Central Plains, a large number of Persian Christians arrived and established many "Persian cross monasteries" throughout the country to develop believers.

As soon as Li Luo entered, he saw a large number of people singing praises in the church.

Most of these people are Semu people, but there are also a few Mongols.

"This official, why are you here at night?" A high-nosed, deep-eyed priest said enthusiastically, speaking Mongolian.

Nowadays, many Semu people speak Mongolian.

Li Luo also said in Mongolian: "I was attracted by the liveliness here, by the bright lights, and came here. ”

The priest made a cross, "Oh, Lord! It seems that October 18 should be a good day for you, this official......"

October 18?

Li Luo was stunned, today is September 22, the 17th year of the Yuan Dynasty, not October 18? Could it be that he is talking about the Western calendar?

"Excuse me, is this year the 18th of October in the Western calendar?" Li Luo interrupted the priest.

The priest said, "Yes, honorable official, today is indeed the 18th ...... of the 10th month of the Western calendar."

But before he finished speaking, he saw Li Luo rushing out.

What the? Damn pigs! I thought there would be one more Christians tonight, damn Oriental!

The priest looked at Li Luo's back and scolded.

Why did Li Luo run?

Because today is Cui Xiuning's birthday!

Cui Xiuning's birthday is October 18, but it is the Western calendar, and she doesn't know what her birthday is on the lunar calendar. This is not to blame her, many people in later generations only know the solar calendar birthday, not the lunar calendar.

Du Lie and Utu didn't know why Lord Lang was in a hurry to go back, it wasn't too late now.

Li Luo was in a hurry to rush back, thinking about his birthday gift. Suddenly, he saw that a shoe and hat shop was still lit, so he walked straight in.

Since the shoe and hat shop can be opened on the side of the royal street, the scale will certainly not be small. But there are very few Han costumes, Li Luo finally picked out a set of Han family dresses and hurried back.

Back in his own courtyard of the post house, Cui Xiuning was doing his homework under the lamp.

"Why did you come back so soon?" Cui Xiuning couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw Li Luo go out and return in less than an hour.

Li Luo closed the door and placed the neatly folded clothes in front of her.

"A set of Han costume skirts, but unfortunately there are too few Han clothes in the store, this one is so-so, just take it as a mind." Lee said with a smile.

Cui Xiuning looked at him a little inexplicably, "I have a lot of clothes, why did you suddenly give me a skirt ......?"

Li Luo grabbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes, "Xiuning, happy birthday!" ”

What the?

Cui Xiuning suddenly understood, "Have you met a Westerner?" ”

Li Luo nodded, "Sort of." The man told me that today is the eighteenth day of the tenth month of the Western calendar. ”
