Chapter 492: My Buddha is compassionate
This scene was not uncommon in the world, or it was a common tactic used in marching and fighting. The garrison did not know how many men and horses would come, so they cleared all obstacles after gaining the upper hand, and laid down such tactics to disturb the enemy.
Dozens of people hung outside the city walls, only the young man was burned by the fire, and the rest were safe. The general of the garrison raised his hand to signal the soldiers to hide, and slowly squatted down to observe the situation around the unknown town.
The wailing on the walls continued, only to be hoarse and hoarse from the beginning. The pain spread throughout his body and showed no sign of dissipating, and this constant pain tormented not only the young man, but also the other homeless who were hanging from the city walls.
Because they don't know if they will experience the same fate in the next moment, and at this moment, they have a trace of envy for the homeless people who were cut off just now, if they just left so neatly, how could they suffer such a pain of not being able to survive and not be able to die.
The garrison general did not make any changes, but the doubts in his heart slowly rippled and lingered in front of him. More than half an hour had passed since the young man had been ignited. Except that the sky was getting darker, there was not the slightest change here. Not even a grey-haired hare or wild dog has ever been there, which is really incredible.
It was a different sight from the ordinary, and it didn't make him make a wrong judgment. The leader of the garrison still ordered the soldiers to stand still, so as to wear down the patience of the intruders.
At this time in the city, Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng slowly stood up from the Zhan Tower, and then ran down quickly, running towards the Fang City where Monk Chen was. There is no longer any value of staying here, and if you continue to stay here, I am afraid that you will be afraid of your life.
The two of them had only run a hundred or ten paces before they heard a dense sound of footsteps. But the sound of footsteps was not the sound of heavy iron boots hitting the ground, but a rustling sound of rubbing. The sound was not loud but more concentrated, and the two hurriedly dodged into a house, and then the moonlight slowly overflowed, waiting for someone to appear.
As Chen Fusheng expected, a team of rogues turned back. But they seemed to know that they would be the first to be taken, and they would wrap the iron boots in rags to hide their eyes. A group of rogues rushed towards the city gate, but they stopped about fifty paces from the gate, and the leader ordered them to disperse, and the rogues rushed towards the surrounding houses.
Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly pushed open the back window of the house and went out. Just don't act rashly at this time, so as not to startle the snake. The house they were in was occupied by two rogues, perhaps because of the darkness, and the two rogues did not notice that anyone had stayed here, but they kept complaining about the leader's "insistence".
"Hey, tell me, we've all left, why did the leader turn back? You didn't see the scene just now, those homeless people are like a group of mad dogs and evil ghosts, if they provoke them, they won't even have bones left. The person who spoke stood up and gestured as he spoke, and he couldn't help but look back, for fear that his words would leak through the wind.
The other person was much calmer, but said calmly: "Put yourself in your shoes, what would you do if it were you?" If I had eaten for a few days, I would have died if I didn't, and I don't think I had any other choice. If you want to blame this world, eat people! ”
The person who started first sighed softly, then raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the person who said later, and said with some bitterness: "What my brother said is very true, although we are not from the same place, but since we meet and have the right temper, I will say a few more words." The leader was very ambitious, and when he arrived in Longshou County, he accepted the petition and tried to stay in Longshou County, so as not to lose his life for no reason. ”
When the words fell, there was no more silence, and both of them fell silent. It seems that no one wants to stir up a conversation anymore, and just silently waits for the next order. When the last faint light cleared, there was only darkness left in the house. Both of them slowly leaned against one of the inner walls of the house, hoping that the order would never come again.
But after waiting for a long time, the prophet couldn't hold his breath and asked in a suppressed voice, "Didn't you forget us here?" ”
"Not really, the leader may be trying to lure you into the urn, but presumably the group of guys outside the city have the same idea. This is a lonely city, and there is a garrison rushing to help in half a day, and I think it will be such a fish. If you want to fish again, I'm afraid you can't afford it. ”
"Brother is right, then let's wait?" Although they agreed with what they had just said, the forerunner was obviously a little uneasy, and once again spoke with a question, but this time they did not wait for the answer they wanted, but waited for death.
Torches suddenly lit in the distance, and countless dark arrows shot through the firelight without a point, as if in this way, all the rogues hiding here were annihilated. The two of them secretly said that it was not good, and just as they tried to stand up, they were shot by several stray arrows. The prophet had fallen on his back, and he was no longer breathing.
The other man was obviously not an ordinary person, drew his knife and slashed a few times, blocking the first round of attacks, and did not rush to break through the door, but grabbed the corpse on the ground and blocked it in front of him. seems to feel guilty in his heart, and he doesn't forget to confess when he acts, "Brother, I have wronged you." If your brother can survive, he will put you in the ground. ”
At this time, Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng outside the house were even more shocked into a cold sweat, but fortunately, the direction from which the stray arrows shot was concentrated in the north, giving them a chance to escape.
When they turned around and returned to the wine shop, they were about to bump into the dust monk and the child surnamed Tong who were about to break out of the door. When the monk saw the two of them returning, he was immediately overjoyed. But looking at the expressions of the two, the mood instantly fell to the bottom again, "What? Messing up again? ”
Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng nodded at the same time, but they couldn't help but push Monk Chenchen inward, "Master worry-free, let me wait to say it quickly." ”
Chen Fusheng explained the current situation in a few words, and Monk Lichen gasped and said urgently: "If you go out at this time, won't you become a living target for human flesh?" ”
"That's right, so I'll stay here for the time being, and it won't be too late to reappear after the soldiers chasing after the rear will kill the rogues who entered the city first." Gu Xing said, and did not forget to comfort the child surnamed Tong. At this time, the little girl was already scared, but she didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of alarming the pursuers outside the door at this time.
It seemed that the premonition that time was running out, the child surnamed Tong grabbed Gu Xing's sleeve and wiped his nose vigorously, and then continued to cry: "Big brother, if I unfortunately die, I must be buried next to my mother-in-law, I am afraid...... I'm afraid that a person will be bullied. By the way, my name is Tong Hatzhu, so you must remember my name. ”
Gu Xing was already anxious, but when the little girl said it, she eased up a little, "Don't worry, I won't let you die." You have to grow up quickly, dress beautifully, and marry that wishful man. Big brother will definitely protect you, rest assured. ”
Chen Fusheng frowned on the side, did not say a word, just stared intently in the direction of the gate, as if ready to kill the person at any time.
Monk Lichen recited the Buddha's name, and also got up and walked to Chen Fusheng's side, and said with emotion: "If you are blessed by the Buddha today, I hope to go to Longshou County with the two of you." When everything is in order, the poor monk will go to Jialan Temple again. ”
"Master, do you really believe that there will be 'Buddha Blessing' in this world?" Chen Fusheng said coldly, which made Monk Chen stunned.
"I don't know what the donor is referring to, why?" Monk Lichen tried his best to maintain restraint and self-restraint, and asked patiently.
Chen Fusheng sank his face and said word by word: "If there is the blessing of the Buddha in this world, how can you fall to this point and lose your life?" If there is no Buddha's protection, then all this is just the handiwork of the court, the world is just a chessboard, you and I are chess pieces. ”
Monk Lichen just wanted to refute when he heard this, but he didn't know how to say it, and he raised his hand again and again to speak, but he wanted to say it again and again.
"Why should the master be in a hurry to refute it, the Buddha is in the hearts of the people. I don't have a Buddha in my heart, because my heart is exhausted. If the master has a Buddha in his heart, the Buddha will always be there. Everyone can speak of Buddha, but they don't know Buddha. Everyone does not speak of the Buddha, but the Buddha is in the hearts of the people. Come to think of it, it should be this truth. At that time, Buddhism was declining and Taoism was sluggish, but it was rampant by evil demons, and I have to say that it was the negligence of people in my generation! Chen Fusheng's words were conclusive, but the words were Buddhaly, so that Monk Chen nodded again and again and slowly calmed down.
When Chen Fusheng said "Buddha's heart" again, Gu Xing had already hugged Tong Hatzhu, lifted the "Silver Jiao" with one hand, and walked to the other side of Chen Fusheng, "Fusheng, then this time it is still out of his heart?" ”
"The world is not peaceful for a day, and I will not stop waiting for a day. Although this statement is too heroic, it can be glimpsed into the heart. Chen Fusheng did not say it directly, but took the "Buddha" one step further.
Gu Xing nodded, "When you see injustice, you should draw your sword, when you see the chaos of the soldiers, you should enter the battle, when you see the homeless, you should make a move, and when you see the smoke, you should disperse." If our generation can pursue this principle, I want to come to the world safely. ”
Unexpectedly, Tong Hate Zhu broke his words, "Big brother, your ambition is better when you can say it to the world." For now, it is only right to get out alive first. Gu Xing laughed out loud when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the child who was worried about life and death just now would "teach" him a lesson at this moment.
Chen Fusheng didn't care, but turned his head to look at the child, and then turned around and pointed to the door, "When it is broken, we will break it!" ”
This encouraging sentence made the four of them all high-spirited, but the four of them waited for a long time, but no one pushed open the closed door. Chen Fusheng took the lead and jumped to the door, looking through the crack in the door, there was a deathly silence outside the door, but there was no one or a horse, not a lamp or a candle.
Just as he was wondering again, a dull explosion broke the results. Torches lit up like lights in the darkness, burning the dark streets. What Chen Fusheng saw in front of him was a team of well-trained soldiers, pulling out the stray arrows that had just been shot. And those rogues must have all lost their lives in the rain of arrows......
