Chapter 31: A false alarm
Traveling all the way, Mo Feng once again came to the camp of the great general Wei Kai. The guards in front of Wei Kai's camp saw Mo Feng rushing towards the camp tent in a hurry, and they all looked puzzled: Isn't this the forward general of the Guiyi Army, didn't he just disperse, why did he come again so soon.
Doubts are doubts, they still dutifully stopped Mo Feng, the general's tent is not so casual to break into.
"Get out of the way, I'm in a hurry to find the general!" Mo Feng was so anxious that he almost hit these guards in the face.
"General Mo wait, let me wait to report first." As he spoke, one of the guards ran in. After a while, the guard ran out again, saluted Mo Feng, hugged his fists and said, "General Mo, the general is invited!" ”
"Thank you!" Mo Feng didn't care about returning the salute, and ran in directly.
Seeing Mo Feng rushing into the tent in a panic, Wei Kai couldn't help frowning, and shouted angrily: "General Mo, you are so flustered, what are you doing?" ”
"General Qiqi, Mo Feng is here to inquire about someone from you."
"Inquire about someone?" Wei Kai was strange, how could he ask someone to find out that he was here.
"Yes, that person is a monk, and his Dharma name is 'Daoyan'. I wonder if the general knows each other? ”
Wei Kai pursed his lips disapprenously, he had never seen any monks in his life, where had he heard of this person.
"I don't know!"
Hearing Wei Kai say this, Mo Feng also patted his head, secretly scolding himself for being useless, why did he forget everything in a hurry. "General, if you haven't seen it, have you heard anyone talk about it somewhere, for example, in Qiongdu."
Wei Kai was a little impatient, and he said that he hadn't seen it, so why didn't he give up. Wait, he suddenly remembered something, Qiongdu, monk, how did it sound so familiar. In Qiongdu, someone must have mentioned something about the monks to himself.
That's right, that's right, it's the turtle king bastard in Wucheng, he said, saying that the rich merchants in the city colluded with the barbarians and spies, and he was caught and put in prison. And almost all of those spies were wearing the armor of the imperial army, and one was a monk in a monk's robe.
It's just that at that time, he was busy settling the people and cleaning up military discipline, so he didn't pay much attention to these things, so he casually ordered to see if he could get useful information from them. Unexpectedly, Mo Feng actually knew that monk.
"General Mo, where did you learn about that monk?"
As soon as he heard Wei Kai's words, Mo Feng understood that Wei Kai must have known Dao Yan's whereabouts.
"General Qiqi, when our army invaded Qiongdu, five people were rescued from the prison, two were local officials, two were wealthy merchants in the city, and the remaining one was a monk."
"So he's not a barbarian?"
"Fine, what fine!" Mo Feng was very puzzled, when did Dao Yan become a barbarian's fine work, if it was his own fine work, it would be almost the same.
"The old turtle surnamed Wu told me that he had caught a few small works, and one of them was a monk, and they were all thrown into prison."
When I heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue, what kind of joke to throw them into that smelly and dirty prison, wouldn't it cost them their lives. This Daoyan is really unlucky, and he actually "revisited the old place".
Seeing Mo Feng's surprised look, Wei Kai also understood something: "Could it be that those people are your people who returned to the righteous army?" ”
Mo Feng nodded and said, "Yes." After rescuing them from prison, I brought them back to their family. As for the master, because he was malnourished in prison, I left a few guards to look after him, and placed them in one of the rich merchants. ”
"This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family anymore. General Mo is not in a hurry, I immediately flew pigeons to pass the book and let them be released from prison. ”
"Thank you, General!"
Wei Kai smiled, then immediately picked up a piece of paper and wrote, and then called a personal guard and asked him to send the letter out as soon as possible.
"Thank you, General!"
"Thank you, Ben is just remedy. It's all because I didn't notice it for a while, which caused the brothers of the Guiyi Army to suffer from this. ”
"The general's words are serious, and this is not the general's fault. If you want to blame, you can only blame that despicable villain in Wu Cheng. I'm just worried now that those who were held are still alive. I've been in that prison before, and it's no different from a pigsty. ”
"You can rest assured of this, General Mo, the guards are all soldiers under the command of this general, they will never careless of human life, even if it is meticulous, without my military order, they will never dare to act without permission. I'm sure they're still alive now.
Although this Wu Cheng is a prison army, no one under my command will obey him, and no one will listen to him. As for the fact that he had the brothers of the Guiyi Army arrested, it should have been done by a dozen or so guards under him. Even when I captured him, my guards were under my control. ”
After listening to Wei Kai's speech, Mo Feng also secretly said "Fortunately" in his heart.
"In that case, then the general will retire!"
"Wait, General Mo, there's one more thing I want to ask you, why do you value that monk so much?"
"Well, let's start with the origin of the monk. That monk's name was Daoyan, who was originally a monk from Jinling City of the Yucang Federation, and he came here to spread the teachings of their Buddhism and educate the people. But he didn't expect that the four counties in the southwest were in rebellion, so the Gao brothers caught him and put him in prison.
After I rescued him, I talked to him. It was found that this monk was really well versed in Buddhist rituals and was a real monk. So he asked someone to take care of him. ”
After Mo Feng finished speaking, Wei Kai couldn't help laughing: "You said he came here to preach the doctrine. Hahahaha, is he tired of being alive, most of the four counties in the southwest are barbarians, and they believe in 'witch religion', and he, a monk, will be arrested as a heretic when he comes here to preach. ”
Wei Kai still agrees with him, and he also thought so when he first heard Xiaoxing introduce Daoyan's implanted identity.
"The general's thoughts are the same as the general's, so ah, the general's people are left behind. One is to take care of him, and the second is to protect him. ”
"General Mo really has a heart. In this case, please ask General Mo to be patient, my people should send him over soon. ”
"Thank you, General, for your kindness. I also have a reluctant request, can you lend me a few horses, you know, the only twenty or so horses I have in the rebel army are in Qiongdu, I want people to bring those horses back. ”
"I'm afraid it's not for the horses, but to see what those people are doing!"
"The general is wise!"
"Okay, okay, I'll let my soldiers send a few horses to your camp."
"Mo Feng thanked the general again, and in this way, the last general retired."
"Well, go ahead!"
Looking at the back of Mo Feng leaving, Wei Kai couldn't help but admire in his heart: It's really a manufacturable material! In time, it's a blank night! He then summoned his own soldiers and explained to him about the horse.
Returning to the forward battalion, Mo Feng worked hard to write an order for the defenders of Dianchi to send Liu Gaozhi, and then gave the order to Xiao Si and asked him to release the pigeon to deliver the message.
After a while, Wei Kai's own soldiers came with a few horses. After thanking them and sending them out of the camp, Mo Feng summoned a few of his personal guards, told them to investigate the situation of Daoyan and a few people, and ordered Daoyan and a few people to be brought back with the defenders.
Of course, Mo Feng naturally did not forget to tell them to bring back the horses left in Qiongdu by the way. This kind of "effort" Mo Feng is naturally very happy to do.
After sending away a few guards, Mo Feng said that the big stone named "Worried" in his heart had not been put down, but at least he still breathed a sigh of relief, and the situation was not as bad as he imagined.
