Chapter 1045: Thirteen Stick Monks Save King Tang (II)
Wang Mang wanted to get the opportunity to cooperate with the Liang army by rescuing Li Shimin, and to gain support to compete with Qin Hao.
Wang Mang also knew that saving Li Shimin was not the best choice, after all, Yang Jian was the easiest person to unify the Liang army, but Yang Jian was upright at this time, and he had been perfunctory in his overtures and requests for help from Wang Mang.
Perhaps in Yang Jian's view, Wang Mang will be defeated by Qin Hao sooner or later, and a person who is bound to lose is naturally not worth investing, after all, no matter how many resources are consumed, it will be wasted.
Wang Mang also guessed Yang Jian's thoughts, so he could only shift the target and try to rescue Li Shimin, and although this road is more difficult, once it succeeds, the rewards will undoubtedly be huge, after all, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow.
Regarding the location of Li Shimin's imprisonment, although Wang Mang had so many goals in mind, no one under his command had the ability to rescue Li Shimin, so he could only try to contact the Taoist so that he could rescue Li Shimin with the help of the Taoist.
Although Wang Mang did not send his own people to the rescue, he provided the most important information after all, and if the Taoist rescued Li Shimin with his information, then he would naturally be a great hero, and this was enough to get Li Shimin's gratitude.
Even if Li Shimin can't be saved, Wang Mang himself has nothing to lose, after all, he just provided a piece of information that is dispensable to him.
Wang Mang's abacus can be said to be extremely shrewd, and then he finally contacted the Taoist with great effort, but after the news of the possible detention of Li Shimin was sent, there was no movement from the Taoist, which made Wang Mang doubt whether the Taoist had given up on Li Shimin.
What Wang Mang didn't know was that the contradictions between Taoism and the Hundred Schools of Thought were intensifying, and they couldn't spare people to rescue Li Shimin, but Taoists were not indifferent.
There are no masters in the Taoist family, but it does not mean that they cannot ask for foreign help, and the Taiqing Taoist people have found the leader of Buddhism, Sakyamuni.
Shakyamuni was once the eldest disciple of the Shangqing Taoist, the elder brother of the Taoist Shangqing faction, Duobao Taoist, but after the separation of the Sanqing family, he broke away from the Taoist family and joined the Buddha, and eventually became the head of the Buddhist family.
Shakyamuni didn't know what he was planning, and he really agreed to help the Taiqing Daoist rescue Li Shimin, and sent his most satisfied disciple to the rescue, and he was the golden cicada with the early cultivation of the great grandmaster, Chen Xuanzang.
Luoyang, which was occupied by Qin Hao, was simply a tiger's den in Longtan, and it was impossible for Chen Xuanzang to rescue Li Shimin alone even if he was a great grandmaster, so he picked twelve helpers from among the disciples of the Buddhist family.
These twelve people are also summoned characters, and they are all famous monks in their respective worlds, among which there are five super-first-class early masters, who are the four major monks in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer": Empty Vision, Empty Smell, Empty Wisdom, Empty Nature, and Master Chengguan in "The Legend of Deer and Ding";
There are three masters in the middle stage of the super-first-class, who are also from "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and join forces to use the three crossings of the King Kong Demon Circle: Crossing the Tribulation, Crossing the Disaster, and Crossing the Doom; There are two masters who are super first-class in the late stage and even at the peak, one is the Fang Zheng master who is proficient in the "Yijin Jing" in "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and the other is the Kurong master who has mastered one of the six veins of the divine sword Shaoshang Sword in "Tianlong Babu".
As for the grandmaster, there are also two masters, one is one of the four unique masters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the other is the monk Jueyuan who accidentally learned the Jiuyang Divine Skill in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
One great master, two grandmasters, and ten super-first-class masters, this is the lineup of the Buddhists to rescue Li Shimin.
The thirteen Buddhist masters led by Chen Xuanzang blended into Luoyang after a simple disguise, but they did not rescue them at the first time.
Wang Mang provided three places of detention, and he could not be sure where Li Shimin was being held, but Chen Xuanzang only had one chance to rescue, so he had to determine the specific place of Li Shimin's detention first.
After nearly a month of stepping on the spot, Chen Xuanzang finally determined the place of Li Shimin's detention after analyzing several small details.
Wang Mang is worthy of being the originator of crossing, his premonition is still very accurate, and the three detention locations he gave are Ghost Street, White Horse Temple and Zilanxuan, among which Li Shimin is really imprisoned.
Zilanxuan, on the surface, is one of the most luxurious restaurants in Luoyang, but in fact it is one of the secret strongholds of Jinyiwei, and Li Shimin is imprisoned in the underground dungeon.
Chen Xuanzang stared at the tall building in front of him, his handsome face was full of determination, and whispered to himself: "Brother Shimin, Xuanzang is here to save you." ”
After the thirteen stick monks glanced at each other, they immediately led by Xuanzang, each holding a wooden stick, and slowly walked towards Zilanxuan.
The two women who greeted the guests at the door saw that thirteen monks were coming with wooden sticks, and they also knew that they were afraid that the comers were not good, so they immediately rushed forward to report, and the other stepped forward to delay the time.
"The masters are really Yaxing, they will come to our Fengyue places, and it just so happens that the sisters will perform Zhao Dance today, oh yes, the masters probably don't know what Zhao Dance is, right? The slave told you......"
Before the woman's words were finished, I saw Xuanzang clasping his hands together, bowing and saying, "Female donor, offended." ”
"Master, you ......"
The woman showed a look of panic, and then was knocked unconscious by Xuanzang's hand knife.
Xuanzang walked to the door of Zilanxuan and carried the lion's roar, and shouted inside: "Zha ......"
Rumble......
Xuanzang's mouth emitted an incomparably loud sound wave, which shocked all the diners to cover their ears in pain, and even the dishes on the table were shattered.
Hearing Xuanzang make such a fuss, everyone thought that this was a vendetta in the rivers and lakes, so where did they dare to stay longer, they all rushed to the outside of Zilanxuan, and Xuanzang took advantage of the chaos to directly lead the stick monks to the entrance of the dungeon.
The garrison strength of Zilanxuan's dungeon is not tight, but it is still not enough to see in the face of the thirteen stick monks, and it is very easy to be beaten through the bottom of the prison by the thirteen stick monks.
Soon, Xuanzang and others hit Li Shimin's cell, but there was another person in the prison besides Li Shimin, and this person was obviously not a prisoner without even wearing shackles.
Xuanzang was afraid that this person would use Li Shimin as a threat, so he did not open the prison door immediately, but asked cautiously: "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
After Dugu looked at Xuanzang, he turned his head and said to Li Shimin: "Li Shimin, your luck is really good." ”
"What does Mr. Dugu mean by this?" Li Shimin smiled bitterly.
"The order given to me by the lord is that as long as someone robs the prison for thousands of years, I can kill you immediately."
Xuanzang and the others were shocked when they heard this, and the bitterness on Li Shimin's face became even stronger, and he sighed and asked, "This can also be called luck?" ”
"But a few days ago the lord revoked this order......"
Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned.
