Chapter 436: Buddha Garrison Camp

The spring breeze is proud, and I see all the Chang'an flowers in one day (read the full text of the martial arts).

After taking the Chinese Jinshi exam, he was able to ride a horse hairpin flower around the streets, but Wujinshi did not have this treatment (the latest chapter of the Entertainment Little Heavenly King of Rebirth). However, Song Zheng was still in a good mood on horseback. Even though the north wind is howling now, but riding on the horse still makes Song Zheng's mind open and relaxed.

The camp of the forbidden army is at the foot of Niushou Mountain, seven or eight miles away from Jiangning City. The war horses ridden by Yao Yukun and Song Zheng were quite miraculous, and the tea kung fu, Niushou Mountain poured into view. Niushou Mountain is not high, and it is named because the north and south twin peaks resemble ox horns. If it weren't for the emergence of the Great Qi Dynasty, Yue Fei would have defeated the Jin army here, leaving the traces of his hometown. However, in this life, the Jin army only ravaged the north of the Yangtze River, and the south of the Yangtze River did not kill soldiers, and many Buddhist temples here were not destroyed, but became more and more prosperous.

Before reaching the bottom of the mountain, there was a faint sound of bells, and then Song Zheng heard the sound of Buddha singing, which was very pleasant and made people feel dusty.

After turning a mountain road, Song Zheng's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but cover his eyes. Looking closely, a seven-story stupa appeared in the distance. The pagoda is gray-white, and the eaves are decorated with glazed tiles, which seem to flash golden light under the sunlight, multiplying the sacred atmosphere.

When he arrived here, the monk's voice and Buddha horn were heard more clearly, and a trace of sandalwood was added to the air, which made Song Zheng excited, but his mood was a little more peaceful. Song Zheng suddenly remembered that Niushou Mountain is a famous Buddhist mountain. During the Southern Dynasties, especially Emperor Wu of Liang worshiped Buddha, Niushou Mountain built many large and small temples. It has also formed a relatively unique branch of Buddhism - bull head Zen.

"This is the Hongjue Temple Tower." Yao Yukun sighed, "Guarding this Buddhist treasure all day long, I have a lot less killing heart in my heart." ”

The corners of Song Zheng's mouth curled slightly. This Hongjue Temple is extremely famous, and the Hongjue Temple Pagoda built in the former Tang Dynasty is one of the famous pagodas in Shenzhou. However, the choice of the forbidden army camp here is a bit nondescript. The forbidden army should be the most elite army of Daqi. Now he is bathed in this Buddha's light every day, and this sergeant is no longer like a sergeant. Song Zheng didn't speculate randomly, but he felt a little strange when he entered the palace. The forbidden troops on duty had bright armor and neat movements, but they had no spirit. Moreover, these sergeants look tall and burly, but in fact they are relatively rich, and that kind of sturdy is completely raised by a good diet.

The forbidden army camp is not far from Hongjue Temple, two or three miles to the south. The permanent camp of the forbidden army naturally could not be finished with a tent, but a huge courtyard (peerless face) was built. The courtyard covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres and is surrounded by a five-zhang high stone wall. Inside, there are neat rows of houses, forming a huge complex.

When Song Zheng and Yao Yukun rode into the door, the four forbidden soldiers guarding the gate of the courtyard just arched their hands in unison and ignored them. Song Zheng frowned secretly, these forbidden soldiers were obviously sluggish, one of them was still yawning, and Yao Yukun seemed to be surprised, which showed that this was a normal situation.

Entering the courtyard, Song Zheng suddenly brightened. In the middle of the courtyard, there are hundreds of acres of open space, with several white lines drawn vertically and horizontally. Divide the site into several pieces. There are two fields, each with a team of sergeants drilling. However, the content of the drill made Song Zheng feel funny. A team is practicing their movements in unison, and a man who looks like a hundred households is shouting the trumpet of his left and right feet, and shaking the spear in his hand up and down - it is the ancient version of "queue exercise". The other team stood there like a log, a colonel, with a small whip in his hand, looking back and forth, shaking out two whips from time to time.

The dignified Great Qi Forbidden Army even practiced these things every day, which made Song Zheng pout. This is obviously training to cope with the so-called "royal etiquette", and it has nothing to do with combat power.

"Xiaolang, over there is the barracks of your Zhenzi team." Yao Yukun reined in his horse and pointed to the left.

Song Zheng's gaze left those sergeants and looked at the audience. The buildings in the entire large courtyard are divided into several communities. On the left and right, there are four large houses, and behind the big houses, there are many bungalows. In front of each big house, a big flag is erected, and the flag is embroidered with eight big characters such as Qian, Kun, and Zhen. Come to think of it, these eight communities were the camps of the eight forbidden armies.

Yao Yukun constantly introduced:

"The tall room directly opposite is the Huiwu Hall, where the two adults of our Imperial City Division are discussing matters. The two small courtyards behind the Huiwu Hall are temporary resting places for the two adults. However, the two adults usually don't come here to stay overnight......

"Over there is the Arsenal Division, where the forbidden army places their weapons. The leader of the Arsenal Division is surnamed Zhong, you can just call him Gonggong Zhong. If you want a weapon, you can find him to craft ......"

……

"Over there is Jingning Hall, and our forbidden army sometimes invites some eminent monks to explain Buddhism, and it is there."

Song Zheng was stunned, the Buddha Hall entered the barracks, this joke was too big? It's incredible!

Seeing Song Zheng's stunned appearance, Yao Yukun asked, "Xiaolang, is there something wrong?" ”

Song Zheng shook his head, "The construction of a Buddhist hall in the barracks is really a bit unexpected to me. ”

"Oh, the Buddha Hall has also been in the past few years, and it was built in accordance with the decree of the Queen Mother. There are many sergeants in the forbidden army who believe in Buddhism, and every two months at the Dharma propagation conference, there are monks from Hongjue Temple who come to preach the scriptures. After a brief introduction, Yao Yukun seemed reluctant to talk more.

Song Zheng's heart moved, and the Queen Mother Huang Jiao worshiped Buddha. Especially south of the Yangtze River, Buddhism is extremely prosperous, but Taoism is extremely weak. This is also the Quanzhen Sect in the north to preach, and even did not hesitate to send disciples to establish Taoist temples in Western Xia and Dajin. The contrast between Buddhism and Taoism in the north and Buddhism in the south is still relatively obvious.

After a rough introduction to the layout of the compound, Yao Yukun said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll accompany you to the camp of the Zhenzi team, and if your predecessor leaves, I'm afraid that those boys will turn the sky upside down." These people are not very capable, but their tempers are not small. You have to subdue them, and you have to use some means. ”

Song Zheng smiled at Yao Yukun and thanked him slightly, "Brother Yao, I'll just go over by myself, and I'll look for you when I go back." ”

Yao Yukun was stunned for a moment, as if he realized something, and then smiled, "It's okay." Then I'll go back to the Qianzi camp first. ”

Song Zheng nodded, but turned over and got off the war horse, "This horse is also troublesome for Brother Yao to take away first, I'll take a look at it casually first." Yao Yukun did not refuse, took the reins, beat the horse and headed towards the Qianzi camp.

Song Zheng took a deep breath, turned to the wall, took off a military uniform, dressed in civilian clothes, and slowly paced towards the Zhenzi camp. The reason why he refused to go with Yao Yukun was because of the idea of exploring the truth (read the full text of the king of the road). This forbidden army is quite different from what he imagined, and Song Zheng wants to find out what these so-called royal guards really look like.

————

In front of the Zhenzi Battalion, not a single sergeant was missing. In the houses behind, there were bursts of frolic and laughter, mixed with the rattling of dice. Presumably, these sergeants were gambling happily.

Song Zheng frowned, and gradually approached the main house in front, and the voices of several people came faintly.

"Lao Ji, come, drink this bowl. The new commander is coming, and we don't know what kind of temperament this champion is, so it's better to be careful. Lao Ji, you have the most flexible mind, and you know a few loads of words, go to the bottom first, and we can deal with it. A rough voice came.

"Lao Tie, you're not interesting enough, in case this champion is an iron-masked person, I won't touch my head and break the blood." Another feminine voice rang out.

"Lao Ji, a few of our brothers, just how many years have you been studying. I heard that the champion is still a Wenju, except for you, the three of us are coarse, and I am afraid that we will not be able to speak. Another high cavity sounded.

"That's it, Lao Ji, don't shirk. I don't know if I can be the captain of the army at that time, so you can find out for my brother. Let's see what this champion likes to do. You can rest assured that you will benefit from it. As long as the matter is done, the fifty taels of silver you lost to me will be written off. ”

"What Lao Qin said is reasonable. My old song also gave twenty taels of silver. Lao Tie, what about you? Gao Yan said again.

"I'm twenty taels too."

"Are you telling the truth?" Lao Ji was obviously moved.

"That's nature, our guys, a spit and a nail. By the way, this is called 'no shopping', Lao Ji, you just do it. The silver is yours. Then snapped twice, Lao Tie slapped his chest twice (eunuch Xianggong, you die to read the full text).

Outside the door, Song Zheng felt amused, these guys were actually discussing how to deal with themselves here. Needless to say, of the four people in the house, three of them were leading the hundred households, and one was the captain of the former Zhenzi team of the thousand households.

As for the names of these people, on the way here, Yao Yukun also introduced them to him. The three leading 100 households, namely Ji Liancheng, Tie Feng and Qu Ren, and the captain of the pro-soldiers was Qin Shan.

"By the way, let a few people clean up here in a while, I heard that the champion went to Miyagi to report today. I don't know when I came to our camp, and it was not appropriate for him to see that they were drinking here. Ji Liancheng said cautiously.

"Haha, Lao Ji is too careful." Tie Feng said with a smile, "Today, the three commanders of Yao, Xiao, and Zhao have all gone to the palace, and Lord Huyan is also on duty in the palace. That champion has just entered the palace, and those adults are not good at entertaining? Besides, the champion is still a teacher in the palace, and maybe a holy decree has come down to summon him. How could he come to the camp so soon? ”

"yes. Although Song Zheng is a champion, he is only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy. According to the rules of our forbidden army, we will definitely have to suffer some hardships. I just don't know what the Commanders have in mind. "Iron Wind gloated a little.

Qin Shan said, "I don't want Zhuangyuan Gong to eat anything, let's still mix under him in the future." If he doesn't help, won't our Zhenzi Battalion be able to raise his head? What do you say, old song? ”

"I don't feel anything, although we know each other, but I'm transferred from the Xunzi team. I'm just curious to see what kind of character this champion is. ”

……

Song Zheng listened for a long time, smiled wryly and shook his head. Although this forbidden army is not rotten to the end, it is also a showmanship. If these people go to the battlefield, won't they be beaten to the ground? Let's go to the sergeant barracks in the back.

Song Zheng didn't enter the house, but went directly to the back of the house and walked towards a room with a gambling game.
