Looking at the unsightly corpse, Yang Lin's face turned pale, and his heart felt a pain in his heart.

These young scholars listened to their own words and came here thousands of miles away.

I never thought that when I suffered such a catastrophe, wouldn't my family be like the sky had fallen.

A few short soldiers next to him sweated like rain and didn't dare to raise their heads.

They are the soldiers sent by the Chengdu Prefecture in Sichuan and Shu Province, and they are here to escort these scholars.

The leader was the Chengdu Prefecture regiment training envoy, who came out and said: "Shaozai, when they arrived in Chang'an, they didn't say they wanted to go out for a long time. These scholar dolls, we also say that we don't listen to him. ”

Yang Lin nodded and said, "Have you caught the culprit?" ”

Governor Liu said: "Shaozai, I caught a group of villagers, and it was they who did it, but the main culprit escaped." The ignorance of these bad people in the countryside is the most susceptible to the temptation of traitors. ”

"It is natural to kill people to pay for their lives, in the past, when Gao Zu entered the customs, he knew that there were three chapters of the law with the father of Qindi, and this is the first one." Yang Lin heard the words of Governor Liu, and defended the foolish people, and said coldly: "The evil demon is outside, and the harm is endless, if you find one, you must kill one, otherwise it will be passed on to ten or ten, when will it be eradicated." ”

Every time he went out of Bianliang, Yang Lin could find that under the surface of the Great Song Dynasty's burning fire and flowers, the place was actually very backward.

The whole country has made Bianliang a little poor, and in this way, all kinds of unbelievable things have come out.

Today's cult is definitely more than this, Yang Lin covered his mouth and said: "Go to the village to have a look." ”

The terrain of Jinji Gorge is dangerous, all saline-alkali land, and it is steep and difficult to walk.

Most of the villagers make a living from hunting in the mountains, and more than a dozen ragged and gloomy-faced villagers, both men and women, are lined up and escorted by the public of Jingzhao Mansion.

When they saw so many officers and soldiers, they were not afraid at all, but looked up gloomily and stared at them.

What Yang Lin was most afraid of was these evil eyes, he turned his head and glanced at them coldly.

"A little bewitchment, so cruel, is it good? Tomorrow, he will behead the public in the downtown area to set an example. ”

As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged woman, breaking free from the public, rushed over, grinning in a terrifying shape.

This is a complete madman, and the accomplices around her applauded her, but unfortunately before she reached Yang Lin, she was kicked away by Lu Wang.

Yang Lin stepped forward with a sneer, stomped a few feet desperately, and then picked up a stone and threw it down, and the village woman on the ground suddenly stopped moving.

"You will be sent to hell by Maitreya." A man bared his teeth and roared at Yang Lin.

Lu Wang stepped forward and said, "Shaozai, it seems that it is taught by Maitreya." ”

Maitreya Sect, first founded in the period of Emperor Wu of Liang, the founder Fu Dashi called himself "under the double forest tree to liberate the good wisdom of the master", Guanghong Bodhisattva line, there are Fu Xuande and others under the door. Maitreya has been spread among the people for hundreds of years, and people have continued to rebel against it.

In the Northern Song Dynasty alone, under the banner of "Maitreya's present life", there were not a few people who killed officials and rebelled.

During the time of Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Jizhou Shamen Faqing proclaimed himself the "New Buddha", and Li Guibo was the "Ten Dwelling Bodhisattvas" and created the "Mahayana Buddha"; The so-called "new Buddha" is to quote the Buddhist scriptures that "Maitreya descends to become a Buddha", and "Maitreya Buddha replaces Shakyamuni Buddha to save the world" and other ideas appear, which contradicts the principle of the five precepts of Buddhism and abstains from killing, and vigorously advocates "killing people and causing chaos", believing that those who kill one person are a Bodhisattva, and those who kill ten people are ten Bodhisattvas, "slaughtering monasteries, beheading monks and nuns, and burning sutra statues", "and madness drugs are convincing, fathers and sons and brothers do not know each other, and only killing is a matter".

This kind of simple and crude doctrine is very suitable for spreading at the bottom, taking advantage of the miserable life of the people at the bottom to incite them to extremes.

Since then, every few decades, there have always been people claiming to be Maitreya in the world, gathering people to raise an army.

Buddhism is well versed in the human heart, so there is the theory of reincarnation, which is like an aphrodisiac for the people at the bottom who have suffered a lot and have no hope.

Therefore, since ancient times, cults that have spread among the people have always liked to have some relationship with the Buddha.

Yang Lin naturally understands this Maitreya Sect, and said with a smile: "Just Maitreya, it is false, it is true, in front of my Chiyangzi, I must bow my head and raise my eyebrows." ”

---

Walking out of this ignorant and terrible mountain village, Yang Lin had an idea in his heart, Cai Jing's academy system was not very thorough.

It would be great if education could be carried out more vigorously so that there would be fewer of these ignorant mountain people who are like livestock.

If human nature is cultivated in this way, how is it different from that of animals?

It's a pity that what is needed is a society that is prosperous to the extreme, and the Great Song Dynasty has not yet reached this level for the time being.

On the way back, after walking through Jinji Gorge, Yang Lin couldn't help but stop.

Such a handsome landscape, no wonder those scholars can't help but stop and play, but it's a pity...

There was a giggling from the top of the mountain, and suddenly a voice said, "Ah, madam, you see that there are officers and soldiers." ”

Yang Lin raised his eyes and saw a group of people picnicking at the foot of the mountain.

Looking at their appearance, they should be large families, and there are more than 20 people in the group.

They were setting up a tent under a big tree, and several old servants also raised their heads and smiled when they saw Yang Lin passing by.

Suddenly, Lu Wang's ears moved, and his eyes rolled and he made a gesture inadvertently.

The guards of the Long Live Battalion quietly protected Yang Lin in the middle, only to hear a muffled sound, and a person actually fell from a tree.

The surprise was not trivial, and all the servants of the picnic screamed.

Behind the Banzai Battalion, a guard put away the sleeve crossbow in his hand, Lu Qian pulled out his knife, and with a wave of his hand, the guards surrounded them in the middle.

The face of the dead turned purple, and the crossbow arrows of the guards of the Banzai battalion were quenched with poison, and they would be lifeless after being shot.

This person is ambushed here, and he has already threatened Yang Lin's safety, and the guards will not show mercy.

"What a boldness, who are you who dare to ambush and assassinate here."

The old servant quickly knelt down, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and cried bitterly: "Wronged, this person has nothing to do with us, we are the family members of the government." ”

Before Lu Wang could speak, the villagers escorted at the back of the team all started crying.

Obviously, the people on the ground were their accomplices, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves in the government, they disappeared without a trace, and it turned out that they were hiding in a tree.

If it weren't for Yang Lin passing by, and his subordinates were alert, the family members of the government who had a picnic would have suffered as well.

Lu Wang was not gullible, holding the knife and asking: "Which mansion are you from, what kind of official is the master of the mansion, and what is his name?" ”

"Our lord, it's Jingzhao Mansion who raised the point of Xing Prison Zhao Mingcheng."

As soon as these words came out, everyone relaxed a little, since it was a family member of an official with a name and surname, it could not be an accomplice.

When Yang Lin heard this, he thought about it for a while, and then remembered that Zhao Mingcheng's father was Zhao Tingzhi, the former secretary of the ministry.

At the beginning, Yang Lin and Cai Jing teamed up to launch a monument to the Yuan Yu traitorous party, which knocked many senior officials of the DPRK and China out of Beijing, and there was no day to turn over.

Among them is this Zhao Tingzhi, although he is the head of the six departments, but he has a bad relationship with Cai Jing and Yang Lin, and he is not in the same vein as Liang Shicheng, the position of the head of the six departments is naturally the focus of contention. The immortals fought, and he, a mortal, suffered and was driven out of Bianliang by Cai Jing.

His son is Zhao Mingcheng, and his daughter-in-law is Li Qingzhao, since this family belongs to the Zhao family, then the voice in the tent is not...
