Chapter 243: A Soft Knife to Conquer Kyushu
When the two entered the dark hall, they saw only the tall statue of the god and the footsteps of the two.
Suddenly, Cui Xiuning grabbed Li Luo's arm and whispered in his ear: "There is a smell of blood." ”
Her sense of smell is sharper than that of Li Luo. But as soon as Li Luo was reminded by her, he also faintly smelled a trace of blood.
The two stopped talking, and walked back together. It's too dark in this temple to react to danger.
At this moment, a voice came from the temple: "Dona Tower? The voice was faint, but it came clearly into the ears of the two of them.
Li Luo immediately heard that it was Japanese! Meaning: Who?
In this hall, there are Japanese people!
It's not surprising to think about it, Ninghai Prefecture is the easternmost tip of the Qilu Peninsula, close to the Wa Kingdom, and close to the sea on three sides, and has been harassed by the Wa Kou since ancient times.
"Seven nests of Eroman... Dascoru...", another sentence came from Japanese, and his voice was intermittent and faint. Obviously, the speaker was either seriously injured or seriously ill. The meaning of this sentence is to save me!
"Arrow... Nundiesiga? Dorsitaru? Li Luo also spoke in Japanese, and asked the other party what the situation was and what was wrong.
"Guo Manasa... Yonako... Yonko..."The other party's intermittent voice came. It turned out that he was going to drink water.
Li Luo didn't rush to agree, he and Cui Xiuning walked out of the Sea Lot Temple, planning to wait for Yan Ying and other guards to come.
"Listen to the talk of a Japanese, what did he say?" Cui Xiuning asked.
Li Luo replied: "Ask us for help and ask for water." The man seemed to be dying. ”
After waiting for a while, all four guards arrived.
"Light torches and go into the temple, and there will be people inside calling for help." Li Luo commanded.
The four guards responded to the order, especially Liu Dadao, who was the most powerful, and simply smashed the gate with one knife and used it as firewood to light torches.
When the torches were lit, the four guards entered the temple with two of them in a cluster.
The originally dim hall suddenly brightened up under the reflection of several torches. Seeing the situation behind the palace, everyone was taken aback.
There were more than a dozen corpses, lying on the ground. The blood on the ground had dried up, and it looked like he had been dead for at least three or four days.
Next to the corpse was a bloody knife with cold light, and the dress of the deceased was undoubtedly a widow.
And then... There is also a living person. His costumes are very luxurious, and at first glance he is not an ordinary Japanese person. He was about twenty years old, and his appearance was handsome, but his face was as white as paper, and there were stains of blood on his body, and he was dying against the wall.
Seeing everyone, his dark eyes immediately lit up, and he had a strong desire to survive.
"Yonago... Yonago (water)..."His lips were chapped.
Li Luo asked in Japanese, "Who are you?" Say where your name comes from, and see if it's worth saving you. ”
"Chikuzen Province... Less and less credit. This dying man struggled to say this, as if all his strength had been expended.
When Li Luo heard about Chikuzen and Shaoer, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The guardian daimyo of Chikuzen Province on Kyushu Island seems to be the Shaoji clan. This person's name is Shao Er Xinzi, and he is wearing a gorgeous fur suit, so he should be the family of the guardian of Chikuzen Country.
This person may be useful and worth saving.
Li Luo instructed Yan Falcon to go outside to catch some snow and feed it to Shao Er Xinzi. Shao Erxinzi greedily ate a few mouthfuls of snow, and his complexion was unexpectedly better.
"Which of you brought dry food? Feed him a few bites. Li Luo said.
Liu Dadao said: "I have." He reached into his arms and pulled out a piece of naan.
Shao Er Xinzi barely ate a few bites of naan, his face turned a little ruddy, thanked Li Luo, and leaned his head against the wall, drowsy.
"When he slows down and recovers a little, I'll take him back." Li Luo said, "Let's go outside and take a look at the scenery first." ”
Everyone no longer cared about Shao'er Xinzi, and went out of the Tanah Lot Temple to find the Temple of the First Emperor.
But I searched and searched, but I only found a ruin hidden by heavy snow. Standing on the ruins of the Temple of the First Emperor, looking east, it is the vast sea. Legend has it that Qin Shi Huang stood here to worship the god of the sea and ask for the elixir of immortality.
"Lord, this temple of the First Emperor, I heard that it was still there decades ago, but it was burned by the Yuan army, and the stone statue of the First Emperor was thrown into the sea." Guard Liu Dadao said. He was a native of the Qilu Peninsula, and later lived in Goryeo and became a village warrior.
Only then did Li Luo know that the Temple of the First Emperor was destroyed by the hands of the Yuan army.
Needless to say, the Han Wutai on the mountain was also destroyed by the Yuan army.
Destroy and destroy. In the future, if he has the opportunity, he will build a larger temple of the First Emperor, Hanwutai, in this "mountain at the end of the sky".
After watching the snowy sea view on the mountain for half an hour, everyone entered the Tanah Lot Temple again. At this time, the young man had already woken up.
Shao Erxinzi, who has drunk water and eaten, and rested, has significantly improved his condition. It seems that this person has a big life, and he can be regarded as alive.
"Shao Er, you can tell me what happened to you. If you are satisfied, you will save people to the end. Li Luo said.
Shao Er Xinzi nodded and told the story as it was.
It turned out that he was the youngest son of the former Chikuzen Province Guardian Shao Er's ability, and he was most loved by his father, and he wanted to set him up as the successor to the guardian family.
But because Shao Erzi was still young when he died, Shao Erxinzi was still young, so in the end, the position of guarding the royal family fell into the hands of his third brother Shao Erjingzi.
As Shao Er Xinzi grew older, a group of old warriors gradually gathered around him, and Shao Er Jingzi began to be afraid of this younger brother until he decided to get rid of Shao Er Xinzi.
Finally, half a month ago, Shao Erjingzi made a move. He took advantage of his younger brother's visit to Yuanjue Temple to worship Zen and ambushed the Assassins.
However, the samurai, who sympathized with the young Nobushi, secretly reported to him. Shao Erxin was frightened and could only flee in a hurry.
Where can you flee to?
The third brother who wanted to kill him, Shao Er Jingzi, was the guardian of Chikuzen, and at the same time the guardian of the Hizen country, and the two feudal countries were both the sphere of influence of Shao Er Jingzi.
Not only that, but because of his great contribution to the anti-Yuan a few years ago, Shao Er Jingzi was also appointed as the general of the anti-Yuan resistance of Tsukushi (Kyushu Island), responsible for the anti-Yuan military affairs of the nine feudal states of Tsukushi Island, and he was very powerful.
Therefore, if you stay in Japan, there will definitely be no way to live. Only by fleeing overseas can there be survival. After weighing the funds, Shao Erxin took more than a dozen confidant warriors and hurriedly took a boat to the sea and came to Ninghai Prefecture.
After the group went ashore, they came to this Tanah Lot temple, ready to discuss their next plans. But at this moment, something happened again.
Shao Er Xinzi is just a noble son who lacks experience, and his personality is relatively weak, he can neither recognize and employ people, nor have the ability to win people's hearts. Therefore, the samurai under his command saw that he was at the end of his rope and even had the intention of betraying the lord to seek glory.
They wanted to dedicate Shao Er's letter to the Yuan court in exchange for a reward from the Yuan court. When the Yuan army marched to Japan for the first time, the general who defended Kyushu had the third brother Jingzi of Xinzi, and Jingzi also shot dead a general of the Yuan army, which played a great role in repelling the Yuan army.
If Shao Erjingzi's younger brother is dedicated to the Yuan court, the Yuan court will definitely have a reward, and then they will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Central Plains.
In a hurry, several samurai loyal to Shao Er Xinzi desperately protected, and the two sides fought fiercely. In the end, all the samurai who protected Shinzi were killed in battle, and only three samurai were left who tried to sell their lord for glory.
It stands to reason that there are still three people left on the other side, and that Shao Erjingzi will inevitably be controlled by the other party. However, this is not the case.
The three samurai who rebelled against the lord suddenly felt a strong sense of shame when they looked at the samurai who had died in a tragic battle to protect the lord before.
The more the three of them thought about it, the more they felt ashamed and hateful.
Then, they came to their senses, knelt down, covered their faces with their hair, and committed suicide with a sword in front of Shao Er Shinzi, washing away the shame of the samurai with their blood and lives.
In the end, only the injured Shao Er Xinzi remained.
After listening to this, Li Luo couldn't help but sigh secretly, what a Japanese man! This character is absolute. This incident vividly and vividly interprets the complex contradictions, subterricity, and fickleness in their national character.
A nation with such a complex and contradictory character is estimated to be a Japanese people.
Thinking of the usefulness of this person in the near future, Li Luo suddenly became polite and said with deep sympathy: "I can't imagine that Shao Erjun will go through such an ordeal, it's really a pity." However, there is an old saying in the Central Plains, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing. Shao Erjun will definitely come to work from time to time. ”
Shao Er Xinzi was obviously stunned for a moment. How could this Excellency, who had always looked cold before, suddenly become warm and polite to himself?
"Thank you for your kind words. The grace of saving lives is beyond words. Shao Er Xinzi said, and he actually opened his mouth in authentic Guangyun Chinese.
Li Luozan said: "I didn't expect Shao Erjun's Chinese to be so proficient, it's really surprising." ”
Shao Er Xinzi smiled reservedly: "Xinzi's teacher is none other than Zen Master Song Renxiu. It is not surprising that there are many people who are proficient in Chinese in Japan. ”
Li Luo nodded and said, "It turns out that the Zen master of Daxiu is the Ling Master, and the official is disrespectful." Shao Erjun, in Xia Li Luo, you and I are of the same age, and we are also fated to meet here. The young second brother has nowhere to go, so it is better to stay in the cold house for the time being. ”
Xinzi clasped his hands together and said: "In this way, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate, and Xinzi will thank His Excellency Li Luo for his care." "If Li Luo doesn't care about him, he will definitely die.
Soon, Li Luo ordered the guards to carry Shao Er Xinzi down the mountain and then carry him into the carriage. He himself and Cui Xiuning shared a horse.
Li Luo drove the horse, Cui Xiuning sat behind and put his arm around Li Luo's waist with one hand and an umbrella with the other.
“…… Since his identity is valuable, is it to put him under house arrest? Cui Xiuning asked.
Li Luo nodded: "Heal his injuries first, and then put him under house arrest." This person is the younger brother of Shao Er Jingzi and the enemy of Shao Er Jingzi. If he uses it well, he can reach an army of 10,000! ”
Cui Xiuning's ears were freezing and aching, she put her side face on Li Luo's back to cover her ears, and said, "This person is indeed very valuable, and he is a soft knife to conquer Kyushu Island." I will ask the Special Investigation Bureau to plan a plan that maximizes the use value, which can be regarded as assigning them an assignment. ”
Li Luo said: "The Yuan army attacked Japan twice, and Shao Erjingzi tried his best to resist. He is the guardian of the two feudal countries, guarding the gate of the West Sea of Japan, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, he is a hard bone. The Yuan army was defeated twice, and this person played a role. But if his brother shows up..."
Cui Xiuning said with a smile: "Then there will be a rift within the Shaoer clan, and we will express our support for Shaoer Xinzi, oppose Shaoer Jingzi, and divide and disintegrate the army of the Shaoer clan......"
