Chapter 347: New Life
When Wanyankang's order to stop killing arrived, most of the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. But there were still some people who killed their sex, as if they had not heard of it, until the military judge cut off a dozen heads and sent orders to all directions, which stopped the chaos in the city.
According to later statistics, in Kaifeng Prefecture, more than 6,000 defeated troops were killed after surrendering, so more than 3,000 civilians were killed.
After Yan Kang listened to the report, he called Wu Shiman, Wu Feixiong and several important generals in the army to the handsome tent, and said in a deep voice: "I ordered the slaughter of the city and made a big mistake." ”
Wu Feixiong knelt down on one knee: "Dashuai, this matter is up to me alone, and I am solely responsible for it!" ”
Wan Yankang pulled him up, shook his head and said, "I can't blame you, the fault is mine, the fault is mine." From now on, we should learn from this. The orders of the superior must be obeyed by what is right, and resolutely resisted by what is wrong. ”
"Yes!" Everyone saluted in unison.
Wan Yankang said to Wu Shiman: "You are fully responsible for the aftermath here. Those who died in vain will be given subsidies according to the standards of martyrs of our army. ”
Wu Shiman heard the meaning of leaving in Yan Kang's words, and immediately asked, "Dashuai, you?" ”
"I want to escort the abbot back to Shaolin, Xiao Baili, you will lead the people of the headquarters to accompany you."
"Yes!"
After Xiao Baili received the order, he found a good Nanmu coffin in Kaifeng Mansion, and after Yan Kang personally buried Huineng, the group immediately set off on the road under the escort of the army.
When passing near Zhengzhou, Huang Yanpei, the defender of Zhengzhou, discovered the whereabouts of the army and thought that the Northern Army was coming to attack Zhengzhou. After a struggle in Huang Yanpei's mind, he sent people to run ten miles outside the city with a white flag and took the initiative to surrender.
In the face of unexpected joy, Wan Yankang asked Xiao Baili to lead most of the cavalry to take over Zhengzhou, leaving only a battalion of cavalry to accompany him, and continued on the road non-stop.
Before going up the mountain, Huineng's coffin was dragged by four horses on a cart. When they arrived at the foot of Mt. Shomuro, the carriage could no longer travel, so it had to be carried by manpower.
Colorless jumped off the horse, ready to borrow some flat poles and ropes to carry the coffin, but after seeing Yan Kang stop him, he shook his head: "I'll carry it." ”
Wan Yankang walked to the side of the cart, supported the coffin with one palm, held up the coffin slightly, and then used his arms to lift the coffin to the top of his head, and walked towards the mountain with his legs.
When the monks saw it, they were all surprised. The coffin itself weighs more than 1,000 catties, if an ordinary sedan chair man comes to carry the coffin up the mountain, at least eight people must be involved.
Tianwu has opened up the second line of Ren Du and has been promoted to the rank of top masters, and he is confident of himself
can hold up this thousand pounds of coffin, and at most it can only walk ten steps. Although he knew that Wan Yankang's apprentice's martial arts were already above him, carrying the coffin up the mountain alone was still an impossible task for mortals in Tianwu's opinion.
Sure enough, after walking about a mile, Wan Yankang's breathing began to become heavy. At this time, it was the cold winter wax moon, but Tianwu could see it clearly from behind, and on Wan Yankang's cheeks and neck, large drops of sweat continued to emerge.
"Don't worry, stop, let the teacher come."
Wan Yankang's figure was slightly stunned, and he squeezed out a sentence from his mouth: "I'm okay." ”
Tianwu sighed lightly and said no more.
After walking another mile, Wan Yankang's footsteps slowed down significantly, and his body trembled slightly.
"Don't worry, stop."
Wan Yankang stopped, took two deep breaths, and continued to walk forward.
"I'm okay!"
If Wanyankang is in good condition, he can really support the coffin to the temple by himself, but his previous injuries have not healed, and he once went crazy under Kaifeng City, and the state is not as good as the seventy percent when it is intact, and it is close to the limit to be able to hold the coffin.
But Wan Yankang was unwilling to give up, although his internal strength was gradually exhausted, and his physical strength was close to exhaustion, but the physical torture made him feel better.
Tianwu saw that Yan Kang was about to die, he turned his head and exchanged glances with the monks behind him, first pointing at himself, and then at Tianqing, Colorless, and Phaseless. Tianwu swept to the back of the coffin in two steps, and after the other three people took their places, the four of them stretched out their hands in unison to support the coffin.
Wan Yan Kang suddenly felt a light in his hand, took a step forward, and almost fell.
He turned his head to look and found that it was the four Tianwu who took over the coffin, so he was no longer reluctant, but silently retreated to the side.
"Don't worry, the abbot seeks benevolence and benevolence, and exchanges his body for the lives of the people in Kaifeng City, which is the great creation of my Buddhist children, why do you need to blame yourself too much." Tianming came to Yan Kang's side, supported him with one hand and continued to move forward, while slowly unraveling.
In terms of the story of Buddhism, the Buddha cut the meat to serve the eagle and sacrificed himself to feed the tiger to achieve a positive result. Hui Neng can exchange his own body for Yan Kang's repentance, and order the killing in time is definitely a great merit, and according to the merits of Buddhism, at least he can prove the golden body of an Arhat.
Although Wan Yankang understood the meaning of Tianming's words, the big mistake he made the old monk Huineng lose his life, how could he be at peace in his heart. He looked at the coffin in front of him, and he couldn't stop talking, but he couldn't stop the tears in his eyes.

Wu and Tianqing are both great masters who have opened up the second vein of Ren Du, and they are also the leaders in the wordless generation, and they have already penetrated the twelve canons, and their skills are quite profound. The four of them carried the coffin, which was completely different from Wan Yankang's reluctance alone, and they ran outside the mountain gate in less than half an hour.
Two days ago, the old abbot led the crowd down the mountain in good spirits.
Two days later, what came back was a nanmu coffin.
After the news of Huineng's death spread, crying was heard everywhere in the Shaolin Temple.
According to Huineng's instructions before his death, after Tianming organized the monks in the temple to pay homage to the body, he transported the coffin to the rear Tallinn, and piled firewood inside and outside the coffin.
When the firewood was stacked, there were several Tianzi monks on the side, and they began to ask how Huineng passed away. Tianming only said that the abbot had attained great cultivation and achieved positive results, but it was not clear that Hui Neng could really die.
This statement was explained to Tianming and Tianwu before Huineng entered the handsome account, the old abbot has always been thoughtful before his death, if the monks in the temple learned that he died in the hands of Wan Yankang, I am afraid that there will be many incidents.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Tianming, Tianwu, and Tianqing were the three high-level people in the temple with the same caliber, and the colorless and phaseless accompanying people would have no other voice, how could the monks in the temple believe that the abbot of Huineng passed away so suddenly.
As Tianming lit the firewood and listened to the monks reciting the mantra of death, Wan Yankang's guilt was even stronger. When the fire was at its highest, he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell backwards.
Tianwu knew that Wan Yankang's condition was not right, so he stayed by his side, and when he saw Wan Yan Kang vomiting blood, he moved his steps and supported him in time before Wan Yankang fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Tianming nodded to Tianwu and said, "Senior brother, you take Wuwu back to heal." ”
Tianwu nodded, picked up Yan Kang and left.
Tianming saved the matter, and shouted again: "Use it when it should be used." ”
Tianwu understood that Tianming was to allow himself to use the Great Returning Pill, he had thought that he could save it, but now after looking at Yan Kang's condition, he can also use this treasure.
After returning to the meditation room to probe Yan Kang's pulse, Tianwu smiled bitterly: "Idiot." Then he fed the Great Returning Pill to Wan Yan Kang, and crossed into the True Qi to help him dissolve the medicinal power.
Wan Yankang dissolved the madness because of Hui Neng. But he recklessly carried the coffin up the mountain, and his internal strength and physical strength were exhausted, and he was close to the place where the oil ran out.
In Tianwu's opinion, if he didn't use Da Huan Dan at this moment, Wan Yankang was only afraid that his life would be in danger.
One night later, Wan Yankang woke up, smelled the curling sandalwood, and listened to the sound of Buddha outside the house, as if he was reborn.
