Chapter 30: The Whereabouts of the Scriptures (Part 3)
"Brother Ji, why does the imperial court know about the existence of these bandits, but it never sees the imperial court send troops to suppress the bandits? Could it be that the imperial court really doesn't care about letting the people in this area take care of it?" Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Su Wushi said indignantly.
As the eldest disciple of the Taoist Sect, although he had also gone down the mountain with his master on weekdays and experienced some of the world's various situations, he had never seen such a massacre of people by bandits as today.
He could actually imagine what it was like for Osan Town to turn over before it became a ruin.
The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the fishermen and farmers rest at sunrise and sunset.
Therefore, when he saw this scene in Osan Town, his heart was very depressed.
Suppressed as a cultivator, but failed to protect these kind people.
"Brother Su doesn't know, the imperial court has also sent troops to suppress bandits many times. However, because these rebels were familiar with the terrain, they occupied the mountains and defended them. In addition, it was also the imperial army. He knows the art of war used by the imperial court very well. That's why this has led to many failures in the suppression of bandits."
Although Ji Gang's words at this time were reasonable, Su Wushi was also somewhat clear.
But he is a man in the rivers and lakes, and he is only good at fighting in the martial arts, and he doesn't know that when the two armies are fighting, his personal strength is actually insignificant.
So, I saw him and asked, "What can the court do next?" ”。
didn't wait for Ji Gang to answer, Mu Yiyi suddenly asked in a deep voice, "How many people are there on the enemy?" ”。
"There are five or six thousand troops, but less than a hundred. Because of the high mountains and forests in this area, it was difficult for the cavalry to make a difference here. Half of the opponent's troops are archers, good at shooting, and can play the greatest role under the cover of this mountain forest."
"What about the enemy's generals' cultivation?" Mu Yiyi continued to ask in a deep voice.
"The enemy's chief general, Zhao Banshan, was the governor of Huguang in the 'former dynasty'. His cultivation is even more so that under the three grades, he is among the grandmasters. There are more than a dozen second-grade centurions under his name. And it is precisely because of these highly cultivated generals that they will lead to repeated failures of the imperial court."
"Oh, yes. Uncle Wang, Senior Brother Su. Ji Gang suddenly thought of something, maybe it would be helpful for your sect's search for books."
"Master Ji, please speak."
Although Ji Gang talked about the matter of Taoism, he looked at Shi Wuwei and Mu Yiyi, and said, "After the investigation of the imperial court in recent days, I asked. One of the surviving villagers discovered that a strange person had come to Osan and left with a package. And the day of this person's departure is exactly what the two said, the day when the grandson's house caught fire."
These words seemed to light up the lights in the hearts of several people in the audience. I saw that everyone was staring at Ji Gang at this time, waiting for his words.
Ji Gang saw that his words seemed to have hit the doubts in the hearts of several people, and he continued, "Moreover, according to the survivor's dictation. The strange man was dressed like the leaders of the horse thieves. He said he was sure that the horse thieves must have sent someone to investigate the area beforehand before they attacked."
After listening to Ji Gang's explanation, Wang Zhengnan also had a slight eyebrow in his heart, and said, "According to what my master and nephew said, the Taiyi True Scripture of my Taoist Sect is very likely to be in the hands of those bandits?" ”。
"What Uncle Shi said is also the conjecture of my nephew, and the tragedy in Wushan Town has alarmed the imperial court, so His Majesty specially ordered Lord Li, the squire of the military department, to come here to sit in town, determined to kill all these rebels who endanger the people."
When Wang Zhengnan heard that there was the whereabouts of the true scriptures, he wanted Su Wushi to return to the Taoist sect first. But after hearing that it had attracted the attention of the imperial court at this time, he also made a decision. "Master Ji, nephew, since the imperial court is preparing for the army, the Dao Sect will also fully cooperate. Wipe out these rogues in one fell swoop."
………..
"Brother Ji, why haven't you buried these corpses after five days? Rather, it's a violent corpse here? ”。 After several people talked about these rogues, Su Wushi still asked about the situation of these deceased people.
"That's right. Actually, we planned to bury these corpses today, but because last night a Buddhist master came to Wushan Town, and he wanted to overtake the dead villagers in the town. That's why it's not buried today."
"The people of Confucianism are also here? When several disciples of the three major sects are here today, it seems that Wushan Town is going to be lively these days..... Mu Yiyi was thinking in his heart.
When a few people were talking about the future, they saw a young bald monk with a pious demeanor suddenly come to the door of Sun's house.
The reason why he is called a little monk is because the other party's age is really young.
Above the round head, there was a pair of big watery eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of fear in his eyes.
At this time, when the little monk saw that there were already several people in the house, he whispered, "Amitabha." The little monk has no thoughts. I came today to transcend these dead. I wonder if how many of them are relatives, friends or family members of these deceased? ”。
Ji Gang stepped forward and spoke.
"Master, we are not the family members and relatives of the deceased."
After that, he introduced everyone, "Below is Ji Gang, a disciple of Confucianism and Zhengwumen." This is the Dao Sect Qingzhu Peak Peak Lord Wang Zhengnan Wang Dao Chief...".
"It turned out to be the royal chief. I often hear the master mention that the aisle is long with you." I saw that the little monk was looking at Wang Zhengnan with his stunned expression at this time.
"I don't know who the commander is?". Wang Zhengnan wondered
"Oh, my master's Dharma name is Kongzhi". When this little monk mentioned his master, his face, his eyes exuded an incomparable admiration.
Because, in his eyes, the master is a Buddha who is more powerful than the Buddha.
"Senior Brother Kongzhi?". When Wang Zhengnan heard that this little monk turned out to be Master Kongzhi, his heart was shocked. Immediately afterwards, there was a trace of worry between his eyebrows.
Because he knew very well that this master was once the most promising person in the Buddhist sect to break through the four grades, but helplessly, the incident that happened twenty years ago made this master completely depressed.
And this matter is even more related to his Taoist sect.
It's just that he saw that the little monk in front of him was simple and cute, and he didn't seem to know about the grievances between Buddhism and Taoism.
So, he asked.
"It turned out to be the master of empty wisdom, I wonder if the master is still in good health?"
"The family teacher is in good health, and he is still as martial as he is in the prime of life." The little monk replied very seriously and carefully.
"Haha, good..". Wang Zhengnan was also amused by this pious little monk.
But there was a hint of helplessness in this laughter.
Later, when he saw the crowd talking around the corpse, he felt a little disrespectful.
So he said, "The dead are the greatest, so let's ask the little master to transcend these souls first."
.......
Half an hour later.
Shi Wuwei and the others were arranged by Ji Gang in a relatively undestroyed inn in the town.
The inn has two floors. The first floor is a hall for dining. The second floor is a house for residential purposes. The entire inn is made of wood, but I don't know why this inn survived this disaster.
Although the house is simple, it is better than nothing, but fortunately, there are all the utensils in the house, so a few people don't care.
Su Wushi and Wang Zhengnan had already entered their respective rooms.
So in the inn at this time, above the corridor on the second floor, there were only Shi Wuwei and Mu Yiyi
Mu Yiyi has actually been very worried about her senior brother's situation, she is very afraid that her senior brother will not be able to withstand these blows and make some crazy moves.
But in the Sun Mansion, the senior brother's performance was not out of shape except for a little woodenness, and he didn't even go to check on Miss Wan'er's body.
But it was precisely because the senior brother was too calm that she felt even more uneasy.
So, she asked worriedly
"Senior brother, are you okay?"
Shi Wuwei saw his junior sister asking, but just turned his head and stared.
But a moment later, his eyes radiated a chill that was breathtaking.
Then, he suddenly said, "Senior sister... Tai Xuan Dan".
A few words were enough to show his determination.
He couldn't wait any longer.
He didn't want to care about the martial arts in his body anymore, whether it would be noticed.
He only wants revenge, he only wants to kill.
"But senior brother, you've just broken through, if..."
Before Mu Yiyi finished speaking, Shi Wuwei said in a deep voice, "Senior sister! I have to break through the second grade! ”.
Mu Yi stared at his senior brother's face one by one.
In fact, she had never looked at her senior brother carefully, but she did notice the change in the other party today.
Compared to when the two first met, the senior brother had lost a lot of weight.
And between his eyebrows, it seems that he has receded from the immaturity of his youth.
She knew very well that since her senior brother had made up his mind, no one could make him change.
So, although she was a little reluctant, in the end, he took out the bottle made of white jade from his bosom and handed it into the hands of his senior brother.
"Senior brother, after taking it, you can refine it."
Shi Wuwei looked at the white jade bottle in his hand, then looked at Mu Yiyi's worried face, and said in a deep voice, "It's been a long journey all the way, and my junior sister should rest early."
After speaking, he saw that he walked into his room without looking at him, leaving only Mu Yiyi to think worriedly outside the house.....
