Chapter 15: Righteousness
The two sisters laughed and walked out together, and when they arrived at the door, they saved themselves and stopped to stop Xiao Yu: "What are you doing with me?" You don't have to go with me, you don't like those things, stay in the town and chat with Song Yang. ”
Xiao Zhu showed fake disdain, looking like he was not uncommon to accompany Song Yang, and was about to say something, Chu Rong laughed softly: "You have to follow him closely, he is going to act today, I really want to watch it, but unfortunately I can't watch it, you can tell me about it at dinner." ”
After speaking, he didn't explain anything, took people on the horse, and left the town to rush to the construction site...... Soon after Chenghe left, the second fool came again, Lord Liu was tired of seeing the monk, and now he wanted to go into the mountain to see the big bird, Song Yang called the dumb man and Mu En, first told the two of them a few words, and then whispered something to Mu En, so they let them protect the second fool into the mountain.
Song Yang brought Nan Rong and Ayiguo again, and asked the two of them to work hard, and ran around Fengyi in a group to send letters to Lao Gu, Jin Ma, Alihan and others, and arrange some things to follow. Next, as Chenghe said, Song Yangzhen didn't bother with the monks outside the yamen, and took Xiao Yu to visit Chen Hui's master and apprentice first, the old man liked the Qingning of the town very much, and he lived happily on the first day, but he was tired of the dozens of monks who chanted the scriptures, Luo Guan looked at Song Yang: "If it's inconvenient, I'll deal with them, to what extent you can give a sentence." ”
Song Yang smiled and refused the kindness, and after leaving Chen to return to his residence, he walked the streets and alleys to visit the villagers. The people of Yanziping are kind and simple, Song Yang lived here until he was eighteen years old, for him, there are relatives and elders in every courtyard here, and he will always talk about the past after entering the door, which makes Song Yang very relaxed.
Xiao Yu couldn't interject, just sat on the side and watched, and every time Song Yang smiled, she would also smile.
Although the town is very small, but Song Yang's stay at each house is not short, only half a circle down the sky is close to dusk, Song Yang finally walked towards the warrior monks, Xiao Yu was in good spirits, hurriedly followed, his eyes were full of excitement, and he couldn't help rubbing his palms twice.
The Red Bowei who monitored them had changed several rounds, and the monks still sat in place and did not dare to move, but they all brought dry food and water with them, and they didn't know if they were prepared to spend it in the town in advance in order to pursue the fugitives for a long time. was eating and drinking, when he saw Song Yang coming, some of them were timid and showed vigilance, some of them were disdainful, and Hui Yan, who had thin eyes and thin lips, looked directly at Song Yang with a smile on his face, and he had a very 'you want me' posture.
Song Yang didn't mean to talk to them, as if he was just going to pass by here, without even looking, and passed by them with Xiao Yu. Unexpectedly, when Kankan was about to walk by, Song Yang suddenly let out a miserable scream, pulled Xiao Yu together, flipped out one by one, and directly threw himself to the ground, at the same time, Qin Cone came out of nowhere, and shouted angrily: "The demon monk is assassinated, it's reversed, it's reversed!" ”
I'm afraid of being shameless about everything.
It's shameless enough for the monks to cheat, but I didn't expect the dignified Changchun Hou to be even more excessive, regardless of his identity, he turned his head and threw it on the ground to plant a false accusation, especially let Hui Yan grit his teeth, since he thought about cheating people, why bother to hang us for a whole day.
But Song Yang acted really well, at that moment, Xiao Yu thought that he really had a hidden weapon, he didn't even want to think about it, it was completely emotional, and he cried with a wow, and then she saw Song Yang rolling around wailing and smiling at herself.
Not only Xiao Yu, but even some slow-witted monks thought that their companions had shot a hidden weapon and really assassinated Chang Chunhou...... Before they could find out the truth, a rain of arrows poured in!
The sharpshooters on the roof didn't aim at their bald heads, they all fired crossbows at their legs and feet, and the next moment, Qin Cone led a large group of guards and rushed over like a tiger and a wolf...... is just an ordinary warrior monk, how can he be compared with Qin Cone, a group of fierce men who came out of the pile of dead, not to mention that the former is unarmed and the latter holds the murder weapon tightly; The injuries in the front line have been gathering momentum for a long time.
The fight was miserable and fast, and when Lord Murong heard the news and ran out of the yamen with Pantou and many other officials, Qin Cone had already closed the team, and all the warrior monks below Huili and Huiyan were rolling all over the ground, and none of them could climb up again.
Fortunately, Hong Bowei wanted to keep his mouth alive, and the knife was not unsheathed when he started, but waved it with the sheath as a stick, otherwise the monks would not be enough to kill them with three more surnames. Murong County Ling ran out of the door, ignoring the monk, and ran to Changchun Hou in a panic, he was still quite puzzled, why did Hong Bowei just think about beating the assassin, and no one thought about going over to investigate Hou Ye's injury... When he ran over, he didn't know that the Hou Ye didn't need to look at it, his old man was smiling happily.
The Murong County Commander was quite clever, and immediately took up his footsteps, pointing at the monk and scolding severely: "The demon monk wolf is ambitious, assassinating the ...... of the prince and prince who is hand-picked by Long Live ". Pantou has a difficult face, this time there are more prisoners than the servants, the small yamen really doesn't have so many pairs of shackles, Qin Cone smiled and came up with an idea: "If the shackles are not enough, use the rope, if the rope is not enough, there is no way, you can only break the tendons of the monks first." ”
Pantou was startled, compared to being ruthless, the town was too far away from Hongbowei, and hurriedly nodded in response: "The rope must be enough." ”
Escort the monk down, and then free Hongbowei to torture and extort confessions, no need for others to worry about it, but Song Yang didn't have much hope, those warrior monks might not know anything. Pantou and the others called clean water to wash the streets, Song Yang also rolled up his sleeves and followed suit, the blood stains were not washed away, and the group returned to the town.
Ren Churong had already guessed that things would be like this, and said to his sister: "If the scoundrels on the street dare to splash and roll in the court, they will be beaten to death by the sticks; But if the official master is shameless, the people of the entire state and county will only stare dryly. Playing this kind of thing also depends on identity, status, and authority, and the monks don't even understand this, and they deserve to be beaten. ”
Xiao Yu was a little sullen: "At the beginning, I hated that group of monks to death, but later I saw that they were so miserable, and I felt strange and pitiful......"
Ren Churong shook his head: "You can't be pitiful, you have to beat hard, this is an attitude." The other party's intentions are unclear but menacing, and Song Yang can't be a little soft-hearted at this time. ”
The truth Xiaozhu also understands, that is, his heart is too soft, and he feels uncomfortable when he sees that the monks are beaten to a 'horizontal and vertical' heart, and he inhales and exhales fiercely at the moment, throwing that bit of unhappiness out of his heart and lungs, his eyes gradually brighten, and the smile returns to his face: "What about the 'later text', the old monk will take the believers to play tricks again, and then use this trick?" ”
"That's not going to work." At this time, Song Yang also stepped forward and casually took over the topic: "This small group of warrior monks stabbed me because they were rebellious and had no king's law; If a few large temples, hundreds of monks, and thousands of believers in the vicinity came to stab me, it would be Chang Chunhou's incompetence and arouse public resentment. ”
After speaking, Song Yang diverted the topic and said to Chenghe: "Do you have eyeliner in Hongcheng?" ”
Ren Churong reacted quickly: "Master Wuyan? ”
Song Yang nodded: "A few years ago, Shi Xiaoxiao and I resigned and went to Hongcheng, and said that we would come to Yanziping to meet me for a while, and more than half a year has passed... I'd like you to check if he's still in Red City. First, this matter is related to Buddhism, and his status in the Buddhist family is not low, so he can help me a lot; Second, the monks came to me to make trouble, but Shi Xiaoxiao never heard from him, and I was afraid that something would happen to him. ”
Chenghe did not delay for a moment, and immediately arranged it, and Xinque set off to Phoenix City first, and then the henchmen of the Imperial City went to Red City to investigate. Unexpectedly, before the county lord's finches were released, there were letter sparrows flying into the town outside, and there was more than one, and there were a total of five finch books in the front and back directions.
They are all military letters from nearby states and counties that are close to Hongbo Province, as Chenghe guessed, the nearby big temples are connecting in series, and at the same time calling on believers, and they have not yet left, but the purpose has been discovered, and they are coming to Yanziping.
Such a large-scale gathering, generally speaking, the imperial court will not allow it, but Nanli respects the Buddha, and the other party is a monk who comes forward and preaches the scriptures in the name of the Buddhist puja, so it is inconvenient for the official family to interfere. However, there are many descendants of the king of Zhenxi nearby, and if the county lord speaks, they will still come forward and disperse.
Chu Rong looked at Song Yang, and the latter smiled: "It's my trouble, don't make it difficult for the family, let it go, let it go and we'll deal with it." ”
In the following days, the finch books were constantly coming and going, all about the movements of the monks, but the Fengyi was unusually calm, the supervisor of the supervisor, the double cultivation of the double cultivation, the visit of the door, Chang Chunhou's expression was relaxed, he could often be seen on the street, sometimes chatting with the old people, sometimes teasing the dolls for a while; Her Royal Highness the princess seems to have really eaten the fairy fruit, her face is white and red, her pretty face is radiant, and she has a spirit from her bones.
Ren Churong pinched her face several times and was amazed.
The interrogation of those warrior monks has already had a result, these people almost don't know anything, they come from several surrounding temples such as Huafa and Hongluo, and they have been ordered by the abbot of this temple to arrest the demon Tan Tuzi, and the abbot has said first, even if he enters the territory of Changchunhou, my Buddha disciples do not have to be humble, and Changchunhou is no bigger than a small finger of the Buddha.
It was not until the evening of the seventh day, finally, that the last news came, five large temples, more than 30 small temples, and more than 400 monks gathered a large number of believers, a total of nearly 6,000 people, converged 20 miles outside the Fengyi, and were rushing to the Fengyi.
The report came from a large battalion of soldiers and horses outside the fiefdom, and the chief officer was not only a subordinate of the king of Zhenxi, but also had killed the enemy side by side with Qin Cone.
Song Yang asked Qin Cone to help reply to the letter, thanked the other party for his kindness, and then gave the order to go down, and after a while, the feudal city suddenly became busy, and led a group of officials to the town, sounding gongs along the street, and informing them from door to door to close the door, unless they were notified by the official family, they were not allowed to go out unless they heard any movement; The sound of bangzi in the arsenal and the pinning nest was deafening, and the craftsmen put out the furnace and returned to the house, and they did not have to work anymore, but they were never allowed to move around at will; In the camp of the Stonemen and the Uighurs, the trumpets rang out loud and sound, and the former, under the command of the Golden Horse, reluctantly assembled a team and ran out in a hurry, while the latter drew his sword and mounted his horse, galloped in formation, and raised countless dusts; The Red Bowei also gathered in one place, and the crossbow was wound and half sheathed... Except for the mountain stream, all the armed forces in the fiefdom moved, busy but not chaotic, and there was a pre-war atmosphere of Xiao and Killing.
The blind man and the dwarf had already run back and hid in the yamen, and the fire road man listened to the movement outside, a little nervous and a little excited: "Song Yang is... Is this going to be a hard hit? Directly transfer troops to disperse the Buddhists? ”
Guiguzi rolled his eyes again: "It's not appropriate for him to do this, but... As far as Song Yang's surname is concerned, he can do this kind of thing. ”
The fire man nodded, slightly regretful: "It's a pity that the fire hasn't been arranged yet." ”
Soon after, the outpost Hongbowei reported that thousands of Buddhists had arrived at the edge of the fiefdom.
…… Although it is not a war, it feels wonderful to lead thousands of people all the way forward.
Ku Che is the abbot of Qingyang Huafa Temple, this time the series of the five major temples, that is, he got up, and was naturally promoted by the monks as the leader, although it is for me Buddha preaching, this leader deserves only hard work and no reward, but Ku Che still feels happy.
However, when he came to the edge of the fiefdom, Ku Che was stunned, the horn in his ears was sonorous, and the dust was faintly visible through the afterglow of the sunset, and it was actually a battle formation...... After only being stunned for a moment, Ku Che turned around and smiled at several other senior monks and abbots of other big temples around him: "This is treating us as an army." ”
The abbot of Hongluo Temple, who was following Ku Che's side, was a white and chubby middle-aged monk, and he also smiled when he heard this: "Chang Chunhou is inevitably stingy, can he scare the monk into returning to vulgarity by putting on this posture?" ”
The eldest disciple beside Ku Che frowned, and reminded the master in a low voice: "It is rumored that Song Yang is ruthless and fierce, maybe he will really ...... Master, please stay for a while, and let the disciple go to explore ...... first."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Ku Che smiled and shook his head, and whispered to his disciple, "He doesn't dare, I don't believe it." "Don't say that an Changchun Marquis who has no real power, even if Emperor Fenglong, does not dare to order his subordinates to kill and drive away thousands of Buddhist disciples.
The monk was sure that Song Yang would not dare to kill, and now that Song Yang is making trouble, the more disgraced he will end up with, Ku Che wanted to laugh again, and then raised his voice and said aloud to the believers behind him: "Yu is not disturbed, Yu is calm, and my Buddha sees it clear in my heart." After speaking, he folded his hands and took the lead in walking towards the fiefdom of the Marquis of Changchun.
As soon as he moved, everyone moved, a large team of thousands of people, everyone looked pious and folded their hands and chanted scriptures, and when he acted, he also had an amazing momentum, but he didn't know that the Buddha verse he had just sung had also been recited by Hui Yan a few days ago
Sure enough, after entering the fiefdom, the horn rumbled and swayed not far away, but not a single soldier really showed up to kill. made Fengyi look like he was going to fight, but it was just a scary singing, and after walking for a while, everyone's expressions became more and more relaxed, and while chanting my Buddha's compassion, he was secretly laughing at Chang Chunhou singing monkey play in his heart, and he didn't have some bearing.
But there are also some surprises, after entering the fiefdom, the Buddhists stopped and stopped, before and after most of the hour, from dusk to dark, there was not even a welcome official, how to put forward conditions if you can't see people? Ku Che took a look: "Chang Chunhou doesn't see us, let's go see him, lead the way to Yanziping." If there is no one in the town, Ku Che will beckon everyone to sit down and wait, thousands of people will sit and demonstrate, he is not afraid that Song Yang will hide and disappear.
Not long after they identified the direction and took the Yanziping, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves, and dozens of horses rushed out of the oblique thorns, all of them in red clothes and red armor were extremely eye-catching, as long as they were from Nanli, they would know that they were Hongbowei.
It seemed that they were just passing by, but when they encountered such a large group of people, Hong Bowei was also shocked, and the generals led by him shouted, stopped the team, shook the torch in his hand in front of Ku Che, and shouted: "What person? ”
"Huafa Temple, Hongluo Temple, Qingming Zen Temple......" Ku Che's eldest disciple stepped forward and reported on his behalf, but as soon as he said a few words, the general immediately interrupted, and there was some joy in his voice: "Buddhist? Are you all Buddhists? ”
Saying that, the general turned over and dismounted, raised his hand and opened the helmet, Rao is master has a Buddha in his heart, and he was also startled when he saw him, the general's face was twisted and his facial features were dislocated, and then he was illuminated by the firelight, and he looked like a ghost.
Without waiting for the monks to settle down, the general clenched his fists to Ku Che and the others, and his voice was solemn: "The last general Qin Cone, on behalf of Hongbo Mansion and Changchun Marquis, thank you for the grace of all the great monks and monks, if you can escape this difficulty, my marquis will reshape the golden body for many big temples, and remember the five great graces!" After speaking, it seemed that it was not enough, Qin Cone gave a thumbs up to Ku Che again, and praised it: "Righteousness!" ”
With a snap of closing the helmet, Qin Cone turned over on his horse and shouted: "Pass the order, reinforcements are coming, and the monks of the temples will lead the crowd to the ...... first."
Ku Che was completely stunned, for fear that the insider would run away, so he hurriedly stepped forward regardless of his identity and grabbed Qin Zun's reins: "General go slowly, what, what's the big difficulty, is this a war?" ”
It was only at this time that Ku Che was shocked to find that on the general's armor, there were dots of plasma, Qin Cone sighed, as if wondering how the 'reinforcements' could not know how to fight, but he didn't care about saying anything, and immediately nodded: "The barbarians in the mountains went out to plunder, and the Marquis of Changchun led us to fight, swearing to protect the people of the feudal city!" ”
Qin Cone's voice was loud, and the believers were in chaos, but Ku Che sneered: "The general said that he was joking, and Chang Chunhou was also painstaking. ”
How could Qin Cone have the patience to talk nonsense with him: "What strange things are you saying?" Open your eyes and see for yourself, if there is no enemy to attack, will there be chaos in the fiefdom like this? ”
As soon as the words fell, a terrible howl suddenly came from not far away, and a group of tall, hideous-faced mountain stream barbarians rushed out of the darkness and appeared from all directions to kill, obviously the team of Changchunhou in front had been completely defeated and could not stop the barbarians.
No one has ever seen the mountain stream barbarians, but everyone knows that they are mountain stream barbarians, and their figures, appearances, and numbers are not something that the Han people can disguise, they are genuine, hidden in the mountains, and they kill people without blinking.
Ku Che really felt bitter in his mouth, and fell to the ground with a grunt in horror, and the team of Buddhists collapsed in a blink of an eye, crying and fleeing for their lives.
It is true that Chang Chunhou can't kill Buddhists, but he can invite the barbarians out of the mountain, and the barbarians can beat whoever they want, and whoever they beat is in vain...... Song Yang Yinuo didn't meet with the Shanxi Barbarian Brigade, so he sat in the yamen and asked Chenghe: "I fought with the barbarians and defended the people of the feudal provinces, is there a reward from the imperial court?" ”
Ren Churong shook his head: "Chang Chunhou is just a false title, and the credit for defending the place will ultimately be credited to Lord Murong." ”
Murong County Commander was also beside him, and when he heard this, he hurriedly stood up and bowed: "Lord Hou, princess, and the county lord's promotion grace and subordinates dare not forget each other." ”
