338 Shattering the Void
On the second day of the first lunar month, the courtyard of the dark family is setting up color platforms everywhere, wearing red and hanging colors, preparing to hold a grand party with the people to pray for blessings on the third day of the first lunar month, and the construction personnel do not need to be invited, that is, the officials of the criminal department and the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp.
A large area was vacated in the backyard, the snow had been swept away, and a high platform was erected on the ground, with vertical wood as a base, and a layer of loess on top of it, which looked like a high platform made of earth and stone, which was stronger. This platform is a place where the four living Buddhas are ready to try out their magical powers, Yang Ling attaches great importance to it, and Song Xiaoai personally supervises the construction, only using more than 100 personal soldiers she brought from Guangxi and more than 20 of her own guards to construct, and the construction progress is much worse than the stage temporarily erected in the front yard.
Yang Ling was dressed in a fox fur light robe, standing in front of the pavilion window with his hands on his sleeves, looking at the high platform gradually erected in the backyard, and said to a person waiting next to him: "Go on, what else is the situation?" ”
"Yes!" That person's name is An Zhibao, and he is also a person in the inner factory, this person is a man in his thirties, with a sturdy figure and an ordinary appearance, and he can't see anything unusual: "The thousand-man team that Guogong stayed in the six provinces in order to drive the entire army to improve its combat strength has been forcibly transferred back to its original place by Liu Jin's order. Lord Yang Yiqing, the squire of the military department, tried his best to oppose it, but Liu Shangshu was ambiguous and did not resign, and Liu Gonggong kept saying that the soldiers missed their hometown and missed their hometown, especially when the New Year was approaching, and the army's morale was even more unstable, so the emperor ordered all the thousands of troops from all over the country to return to Zhejiang."
Yang Ling sighed leisurely, walked back to the table and sat down, poured a cup of hot tea, turned the cup gently, and sniffed the light fragrance.
This matter was long expected by him, Liu Jin tabooed the elite soldiers he personally trained were scattered in the provinces, and these soldiers seemed to be the main force of the local officers and soldiers, these soldiers had great achievements, and in the long run, they would definitely spread out and become middle and lower level generals among the local officers and soldiers, in that case, Yang Ling's influence in the army would be too terrible, and he could even bypass the senior generals and directly order many soldiers who were loyal to him.
It was precisely for this reason that Yang Ling could not come forward to ask the emperor to leave the thousand-man team in the local area for any reason, and the emperor had no scheming and trusted him. However, the people around the emperor, and even many people in the imperial family, did not let their guard down, if he asked for his cronies to be kept in various places, who knew if he was for justice or selfishness?
Yang Ling didn't forget that when he went to Jizhou Tangquan, Princess Yongfu also questioned his ambitions and ambitions. Princess Yongfu's little girl is quite friendly to him, and as his power increases, he has also been jealous of whether he has other ambitions, let alone others.
Yang Ling raised his glass, thought about it and put down the cup again, and said, "What else is there to do with Liu Jin?" ”
"It's the first month of the year, and the officials are on vacation, but Liu Gonggong has been making constant decrees, and he ordered that all officials who are promoted or transferred must not leave their posts when they have not completed the food, and the accounts must be thoroughly investigated first. When the person is raised and the supervisor is elected, the policy and the transfer of the examination shall be increased".
"Huh?" Yang Ling was surprised and laughed: "This Liu Jin, sometimes I really suspect that he is a comrade who has crossed over, and the anti-traditional things such as the outgoing audit and the Confucian examination are added to the old papers, but they are also very scientific and effective in the modern political system, and I can't imagine that he can do it." ”
As soon as this decree was promulgated, Liu Jin began to meddle in the official assessment and the imperial examination system. He cut 50 places for the township examination in Jiangxi, but added 100 places for the township examination to his hometown of Shaanxi, and in order to win over Jiao University scholars, he added 95 places for the township examination to Jiao Gelao's hometown of Henan.
Because the scholars of the Hanlin Academy have been standing on Yang Tinghe's side against him, Liu Jin ordered the assessment of the Hanlin Academy, in addition to the assessment of the Hanlin Academy, but also with the Ministry of Officials to inspect, both aspects of the assessment are qualified before they are considered to pass, this time he passed the Ministry of Officials Zhang Cai, and controlled the promotion of the Hanlin Academy. ”
Yang Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's a pity, the scripture is a good scripture, as soon as it comes out of Liu Jin's mouth, it will be crooked, and it will be high-sounding, but in fact, it is just to pinch the necks of the officials."
He laughed and said, "Presumably, Liu Jin also ordered that in the future, if the Chinese military officials in Beijing are transferred to advance and retreat, they must first go to him to do an outgoing audit before they can take office, right?" ”
An Zhibao was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the general meaning of the outgoing audit, and couldn't help laughing: "Grandpa Guo is like a god, that's exactly the case." Now the officials are being evaluated at the end of the year, and they are promoted and transferred according to their political performance, this order is an order, Liu Jin's mansion is full of traffic, officials come and go, the door of Liu's mansion is open, and the gift givers are rubbing shoulders from dawn to late night. ”
Now there have been many jokes in the capital, some officials gave gifts in the morning and were entrusted with a fat errand, but in the afternoon someone gave a heavier gift, so the officials immediately ordered the dismissal of the predecessor and the reappointment of the new official. There are also people who have already received letters of appointment and left Beijing, and they immediately sent people to chase them back to other posts, and to exchange important posts for officials who give more gifts."
Yang Ling's eyebrows locked when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "All this evidence has been recorded?" ”
An Zhibao smiled heartily and said: "Guogong rest assured, the time, place, and number of gifts given, we all remember clearly." Governor Shenying, obviously there was no war on the frontier this year, but he bribed Liu Jin heavily and took the border credit, Liu Jin asked for an edict to promote him to Yangbo, give him a coupon, and increase his salary to 800 stones.
Wu Zhuangyuan An Guo should have been appointed as a commander and went to Shaanxi to make meritorious contributions, but because he had no money to bribe, the dignified Wu Zhuangyuan was incorporated into the army by Liu Jin and was killed, and he did not even become a small army commander. Pingjiang Bo Chen Xiong did not send bribes, and was falsely accused of corruption by Liu Jin, not only took away the death penalty given by the previous dynasty, but also cut the knight and raided the family, and the whole family was assigned to Hainan to fill the army. ”
Yang Ling's heart was a little impatient when he heard it, and he heard that Liu Jin was constantly tossing in Beijing, harming the country, and he obviously had the ability to let him have some peace, but he deliberately forbears and indulges, and he can't help but have a sense of guilt for indulging in evil. But because Liu Jin's inferior surname is like this, if he can't be subdued in one fell swoop, as Yang Shen said, he has been fighting with him in the court for decades, even if he wins in the end, it will be a miserable victory, how much will the court pay if it is tossed for so long?
At that time, the Ming Dynasty, which had a good foundation, was only afraid that it would be tossed and dying by this scourge. It's like a sick person, a choice is to be sick and want to die, and then completely eradicate the disease; Another option is to linger on the sickbed, tossing for decades, which one brings more pain? This is probably a kind of utilization of shock therapy in the Korean war.
Yang Ling sighed heavily and said, "There's nothing to do, right?" ”
"Well, the last thing, Liu Jin ordered all governors from all over the country to come to Beijing to accept the imperial seal before May this year, and those who fail to arrive within the time limit will be convicted and imprisoned! The order has been ordered to be issued to the provinces."
It's for bribes again! The governors of various localities are the principal officials of the local military, government, and civil affairs, and some of them have to leave for Beijing more than two months in advance, which is the spring of March, the busy agricultural season. At this time, the chief civil affairs officer of a place wanted to rush into Beijing to give gifts, and he Liu Jin didn't even care about the stomachs of the people in the world in order to fill his own treasury, and once a famine occurred, wouldn't it provoke a civil uprising?
All the governors of the world entered Beijing at the same time? , just with the current traffic conditions and communication conditions, how many things will have to be wrong! Yang Ling slammed the table, his eyes twisted, it was really hot!
Liu Jin, Liu Jin, you can toss hard! Not only tossed a sin, but also tossed away the little friendship since you and I met. If one day I judge you in court, I will never leave half a cent of affection!
"Ai Yuanwai, this Chinese New Year, you ran to our house to cry and mourn, this is too unlucky", Zhang Zhong impatiently picked up the dried fruit and threw it into his mouth and chewed it slowly, Erlang's legs swayed, and he swayed under Ai Yuanwai's nose.
"Father-in-law Zhang, you raise your noble hand! Xiaomin kowtows to you! Raise your noble hand, please raise your noble hand! Ai Yuanwai's fat body was like a ball of meat, piled on the ground and kowtowing incessantly.
"Yo yo yo, what are you doing here? Hehehe, speaking of which, you are older than our family, and our family can't give you New Year's money if you kowtow to the New Year", Zhang Zhong's coconut teaser caused a lot of house slaves to laugh.
Ai Yuanwai wiped the sweat on his face and begged bitterly: "Father-in-law Zhang, your people are about to dig under our house, this Chinese New Year, our family does not dare to stay in the house, for fear that the house will sink, father-in-law, you are a living Bodhisattva, please send a word, let us go."
"Alas!" Zhang Zhong sighed, put down his legs, and said solemnly: "Outside Ai Yuan, there is no way for our family." Our family has received the emperor's mission, and has been given a holy decree, and Gonggong Liu in Beijing has personally approved it to explore gold mines in Bazhou, according to the guidance of the Kanyu masters we invited, it is likely that the bottom of your family is a gold vein, if this is dug out, it is a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, and the people of Bazhou will also benefit. This so-called sacrificing the small self, completing the big self, the rise and fall of the country, the husband is responsible! ”
"This", Ai Yuanwai wiped his sweat again, and said with a wry smile: "Father-in-law, Xiaomin has lived for most of his life, and it is the first time that I heard that we have produced gold in Bazhou." Let's talk about it again", he accompanied him with a dry smile and said: "You can be a master, that's the study of feng shui, right?" What do they know about gold prospecting? ”
Zhang Zhong pulled a long voice and said, "They don't understand, you understand?" Okay, okay, please go back, we still have to visit a few guests, I really can't accompany you here. Our emperor is in charge, and the exploration of gold mines is not something you can stop if you say stop, huh? ”
Zhang Zhong said that he stood up and was about to go out, but Ai Yuanwai hurriedly grabbed his robe and pleaded: "Father-in-law, don't go, father-in-law, please stay." There is really no gold mine in my family's area, it is my family's land, I have a title deed, but I can't dig any further."
As he spoke, Ai Yuanwai trembled and took out a title deed from his robe, Zhang Zhong didn't look at it, and said with a sneer: "Wow, the land belongs to your family, and we don't occupy your family's land~~ skin." Our people are digging underground, and the land is still yours."
"How much ground do you have to dig and when?"
Zhang Zhong rolled his eyes and said, "What do you say?" This is the emperor's errand, and it was done by the head of the capital, Liu Gonggong's father-in-law [***], can our family not care? You can't dig under your house, then there is a yard, there is no whole house, then there are 100 hectares of fertile land, all turned over, our family does not believe that we can't dig gold! ”
Ai Yuan's face turned red, he gritted his teeth, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, respectfully held them in his hand and said: "Father-in-law Zhang, father-in-law Zhang, you see it clearly, maybe it is the master of Kanyu who has seen it badly, please ask his old man to take a look at it again, our piece of land, when the foundation was dug very deep, I really haven't seen a gold grain." This bit of silver, if you are sorry, should be regarded as a reward for hiring a feng shui master."
Zhang Zhong "poofed" and was happy: "You old thing, everyone says that Ai Jing Ai is an iron rooster, and he doesn't pull out a hair, hehe, dare not see the coffin and not cry, Lao Tzu doesn't pluck your hair, let you become a bare chicken, you can't show our family's ability!" ”
"Hehehe, Ai Yuanwai, this is not good, what we want to dig is a gold mine, what do you want to do with this bit of silver? The master Kanyu invited by our family, that is the apprentice of the master who gave the first emperor the feng shui of the emperor's tomb, can the master invite this bit of silver back? ”
"Yes, yes, Xiaomin is short-sighted", Ai Yuanwai knocked out his teeth and swallowed blood, and took out a stack of silver tickets in distress, raised it tremblingly and said: "Father-in-law Zhang, you help, please you are old."
"Hmm", Zhang Zhong wiped his eyes and gave a look to the housekeeper next to him, who hurriedly stepped forward to take the silver, and helped Ai Yuanwai up with a smile by the way. Ai Jing squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying and said, "Thank you Grandpa Zhang, thank you Grandpa Zhang."
"Thank you, we are a eunuch, eating and drinking royal, of course, you have to be loyal and dedicated to the royal errand. Well, I'll take this money and ask the feng shui master to choose another auspicious place, but the short-term workers we are looking for have been busy for several days, and our family has allowed three times the salary for the Chinese New Year, these people."
Ai Jingxin said: "After taking all this money, do you still need to send the wages of some helpers?" If he really asked him to turn over all the land in his house, and the bottom of the house was full of holes, and my home would be ruined. ”
He touched his pocket and said with a wry smile: "Father-in-law, Xiaomin has no more silver on him, I'll go back and get it again immediately."
Zhang Zhong glanced at a house slave, and then said with a smile: "Well, don't be in a hurry, you go back and prepare, our family will send someone to inform them immediately, stop working and stop digging first."
Ai Yuanwai was overjoyed when he heard this, and he thanked him for a thousand gestures, and then withdrew from the hall. walked all the way, but my heart twitched in pain all the way.
The housekeeper Han Bing stepped forward, raised his big finger and said, "Master, your trick is really high." Second Master Mao led the gang to fight and kill, hehe, take a trip, before you sit at home, people take the initiative to send it up. Master, you keep it".
He handed over the stack of silver tickets, Zhang Zhong laughed proudly, took the silver tickets and took out one and said, "Take it, the lord will reward you", and as he spoke, he stuffed the other silver tickets into his sleeve and beckoned to Han Bing.
Han Bing took the silver ticket with a flowery face, nodded and thanked him, and then leaned closer to his ear, and then felt that his palm sank, and with the silver ticket, there was actually a small cloth bag: "Here, there are more than 20 grains of gold sand, you go to Ai's house and tell our people not to dig it, and then find that there is golden sand in the soil, understand?" ”
Han Bing's eyes flashed, he glanced at Zhang Zhong in awe, and nodded again and again: "The little one understands, the little one understands, uh, how much blood will that Ai rooster make?" ”
Zhang Zhongge smiled, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Isn't there still two silk shops in the Ai family, a grain and oil shop, and a medicinal herb shop, let him hand them all over."
Han Bing was taken aback and hesitated, "Master, is this too ruthless?" He's a famous iron rooster, will he break up and not agree? ”
"Hehehe", Zhang Zhong shook his head and smiled: "No, no, if he didn't bring so many silver tickets today, maybe he would have fought to the end of the net and won't take a penny, but he has vomited so much blood, if he doesn't hand over the shop, even if he takes it for nothing, he is a smart man, since he knows that Ye Zhi is here, he doesn't pay it, don't want to do business with these shops in the future, and what about his house and his land?" That big mansion is worth at least 60,000 taels of silver, and if it collapses all at once, if all the hundreds of acres of land are turned over the raw soil that does not grow crops, the iron rooster will have to become a dead rooster! ”
Han Bing also felt a chill in his heart when he heard it, he was ruthless and black, but this master was even darker and more ruthless, he was simply eating people and not spitting out bones. Han Bing hurriedly answered and hurriedly withdrew.
Zhang Zhong pinched the thick silver ticket in his sleeve, smiled, and was about to turn around and go into the backyard, when a servant hurriedly came to report: "Master, Liang Hongliang's father-in-law is here."
As soon as Zhang Zhong turned around, he saw Liang Hong, the deputy commander of the family who was named Jin Wuwei's right governor, walked in with a smile, and said with a smile as soon as they met: "Lao Zhang, our family is here again."
Zhang Zhong descended to greet him, grabbed his arm and scolded with a smile: "You ghost, you have no place to go in this poor and remote place, come to our house every day to fight the autumn breeze, hehe, let's go and drink a few cups in the back."
Liang Hong smiled: "That's not nonsense? Coming to Bazhou, who will you eat if you don't eat it? But I still have something to do today, Lord Qincha was idle in the Chinese New Year's Eve and had nothing to do to go to the street to walk around, and saw the four living Buddhas of Longquan Temple coming to your house to pray for blessings, he inquired and heard about the many miracles of the four Buddhas, which also moved his heart, and Zhang Luo wanted to hold a Hongfu ** meeting to plant yin blessing and yin virtue for himself."
Zhang Zhong was stunned and said, "Do you want to invite the Living Buddha to spread the Dharma?" Please, please, haven't we been avoiding him as a killer, what's wrong with our family? ”
Liang Hong said seriously: "It's really about your, he invited the four living Buddhas to preach the Dharma, asking for blessings in the next life, planting the fruits of the afterlife, and at the same time doing ** things to favor the people of Bazhou, so the grandfather also posted a post to invite all the local civil and military officials, gentry and landlords, and allowed the people in the city to go to the courtyard of the dark mansion to worship the Buddha and ask for blessings."
Zhang Zhong was stunned and said, "So pious? It's such a big move, could it be that you still invite our family? ”
Liang Hong took out a gilded invitation from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "How can you be the grass king of Bazhou?" Well, here's the post."
Zhang Zhong took the invitation sticker, and said suspiciously: "He Wei Guogong came to Bazhou to raid his house, our family and his well water do not violate the river water, and the eight poles can't be beaten, I haven't been to visit him since he came, he is a dignified Guogong, what are you asking us to do?" ”
Liang Hong snorted disdainfully, and scolded with a smile: "I said that your kid is not easy to collect money?" This brain doesn't know how to turn? It's the New Year, people are the grandfather of the country plus the order of the Qincha, are you embarrassed to come to the door empty-handed? ”
Zhang Zhong said "ah", and suddenly said: "Damn, this is running Bazhou to rub oil?" ”
Liang Hong rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense, do you think the surname Yang is a good man and a woman?" I was about to visit you, so I volunteered to take the post."
He took Zhang Zhong's hand and said as he walked: "Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat, you are a fierce big mud fish in Bazhou, and when it is the turn of Grandpa Guo, you have to mix in the pile and pretend to be." What's wrong? Not happy? Don't look at the fact that people are not in the court, they are still celebrities in front of the emperor, and there is no harm in climbing the relationship."
Zhang Zhong cried and laughed and said: "Mom, the chicks don't pee, each has its own way." He is more serious than me when he holds his wealth, and he is embarrassed to make a move if he takes less."
He pinched the thick stack of silver tickets in his sleeve again, and scolded angrily: "The left hand in, the right hand out, the master has become the god of wealth on the way!" Who is this for, and who is it busy for? ”
The dark mansion is now regarded as the temporary trip of the grandfather of Weiguo, dressed in red and hung with colors, and the flow of people is blazing, just like visiting the temple fair, it is really lively. Yang Ling and Liang Hong accompanied the officials of Bazhou who arrived early to drink and talk in the living room.
The eunuch Zhang Zhong, the Zhizhou Fan Moli, and the commander of the guard Zhu Qianhu sat in the chief, today Liang Hong is really happy, the officials who came to the banquet have prepared generous gifts, and there is no reason to send the deputy Qincha to the lord, Liang Hong also earned a lot of money, and sighed that the trip was worthwhile, so although Yang Ling only drank slowly, Liang Hong was elated, drunk seven or eight points of wine, and his face was red.
These officials were profligate, and the beautiful singer girl Liang Hong found sat next to the adults and served the wine with a smile, and moved from the stool to the adult's lap with the buttocks.
The warm hall is not for ordinary people to come into, ordinary people can only walk in the courtyard and enjoy the big drama sung by a few invited troupes, only the officials and gentry who have served the invitation are eligible to enter the hall and sit down, everyone has spent a lot of money to earn this wine, but to be able to eat wine with the prince is enough to be recorded in the family tree and show off for three generations.
Several graceful dancers are relaxing their jade bodies, singing slowly, and singing beautiful and moving tunes.
They wore pink translucent light thin robes, jade shirts and skirts almost like cicada yarn, and thin obscene pants with a few visible flesh inside, tightening the plump and round buttocks, embroidered with bright flower busts, squeezing the deep cleavage into everyone's eyes, the pepper milk was angry, and the curves were exciting.
"Su about a small waist, reluctant to hurt the spring. New evening makeup under the shadow of sparse plum. It looks like a light cloud. The song skillfully moves the red lips, and the words are delicate. The peach blossom deep path is a Tongjin. Looking forward to the night moon in Yaotai, it was also sent back to the wheel. ”
After singing the song, Fan Moli clapped his hands and laughed: "What a peach blossom deep path and one Tongjin", subtle, subtle, what I want is this tune. Li Qingzhao is a gentleman's house, a famous lady, and she also does such glamorous words, what a wonderful person, hahaha."
"Hehehe", Yang Ling, Liang Hong, and Zhang Zhong accompanied the silly music for a while, compared with Fan Moli, these three are illiterate, Li Qingzhao is the image of a fairy daughter who does not eat fireworks in the world in Yang Ling's heart, and he really doesn't know that people have also written glamorous words.
Seeing that Lord Qincha was also happy to hear it, Fan Moli hugged the slender waist of the beautiful woman beside him, whispered a few words in a low voice, the woman covered her mouth and smiled, then Yingying got up, took a pipa, and danced into the crowd.
This woman has superb dancing skills, holding the pipa in her hand while dancing and playing, singing softly, dancing gracefully like flying into the sky: "The shallow wine is in front of the people, the nephrite lamp is embraced, and it is always reasonable to look back and hug it, and it hurts and hurts." Gently pushed Lang, gradually heard the trembling, slightly frightened. Try and change the longitudinal, there is no seam, this time the flavor is crazy, moving, arms together, lips together, tongues playing. ”。
The officials and gentry were fascinated by it, and their eyebrows fluttered when they listened, and only Zhang Zhong and Liang Hong were sitting on the table, pretending to be upright and gentlemen.
Yang Ling laughed a few times, thinking about the 'Four Living Buddhas' who were meditating in the backyard and preparing to perform magical powers.
So Yang Ling coughed, picked up his wine glass and put on the leadership shelf, just as he wanted to signal everyone to be serious. Suddenly, Fan Mo smiled uncontrollably: "Song Huizong's words are much stronger than Li Qingzhao, after listening to it, it makes people imagine Master Li's peerless stunner, it's really itchy and hard to scratch."
"Song Huizong?" Yang Ling was taken aback, feelings are the words made by the emperor, Huang Yanjing is a German surname, what kind of pretend to be a prince of the country, and when it came to his mouth, he swallowed it back immediately.
Fan Moli, who was drunk and hazy, turned his head and saw Yang Ling holding a wine glass, which was facing him, so he hurriedly got up and raised his glass flatteredly, and touched Yang Ling on the spot: "Grandpa Guo is polite, too polite, the lower officials dare not be." Song Huizong's beautiful words are really good, when the floating is a big white, the lower officials respect the lord! ”
"Huh? Deserved! When the floating big white, a big white, everyone drink together, drink together! The cup raised by Yang Ling turned into a persuasion, and the officials and gentry at each table raised their glasses and drank as soon as they saw the national prince toasting.
Yang Ling turned his eyes, and suddenly saw Song Xiaoai dressed in a military uniform, looking indescribably handsome and cute, and many wine-colored people in the banquet were attracted by her unique beauty and secretly peeped at her.
Song Xiaoai stood in the corner, pouting as if she was sulking, but her eyes kept glancing at him. Yang Ling smiled, staggered up and said to everyone: "You drink slowly, this grandfather will go to make it convenient."
He walked over to the wall and whispered, "How's it going, everything is all right?" ”
"Hmm!" Song Xiaoai pouted in response, turned around and walked out, Yang Ling followed out under the verandah, and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" It's not going to be a big stick and mallet, is it? ”
Song Xiaoai said angrily: "My lord, what kind of official are you befriending, what kind of adult, gentleman, I look at me, there is no serious person, sing some silver words and songs, you still applaud."
Yang Ling looked at her blushing and embarrassed appearance, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, now he said that he was so profligate in front of the officials and gentry, of course he had his purpose, the first thief of the four thieves in Bazhou was an official thief, if he put on the image of a deputy Qing official as soon as he came, and the officials of the government joined hands to create a false image and conceal the news, then he would take a team of officers and soldiers from other places to find a little powerful information and a witness who dared to come forward.
Even if you have to dispatch the people of the inner factory, it will inevitably take a lot of trouble, not to mention that the forces that have been spun off from the inner factory are basically in the stage of stinging in order to avoid attracting Liu Jin's attention, except for the part that is expanding overseas and the border regions. Except for a small number of core personnel directly commanded by Cheng Qiyun, his intelligence system can be said to be in hibernation, which is also the reason why the inner factory was taken over by Liu Jin, and he obviously found that it was not as powerful as originally expected, but he never suspected that Yang Ling made the 'golden cicada out of the shell' plan.
No matter how bad the corrupt officials in Bazhou are, after all, the scourge is only one place, but Liu Jin and his party are the scourge of the whole world, which is more important Yang Ling still has a lighter share, and they will not be easily used. Then you have to deal with these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and fight wits and courage.
Just like the four gods today, they have the support of the government and the love of the people, and they can't find any evidence, the only bitter master is still a wanted murderer at large, can he deal with the four demon monks through normal channels? Then there is only another way, to mingle with them first, and become your own person.
Yang Ling glanced at her meaningfully, and said in a low voice: "Too high people are jealous, and they are suspicious of the clean world." Little love, sometimes the so-called means of expediency"
At this moment, Zhu Qianhu walked down the corridor drunkenly, and Yang Ling hurriedly raised his voice and smiled: "Man, if you don't talk about this when you get together, why do you have wine?" Besides, a Li Qingzhao and a Song Huizong are all big shots? People write it, can't we still listen to it? Hehe, this is Song Ci! ”
Zhu Qianhu was drunk and hazy, as if he didn't see clearly that it was Grandpa Guo standing here, and staggered into the hall. Yang Ling glanced back at him, and said with a low smile: "Hehe, forget it, men act on the spot, you don't understand, at the banquet, there is a beautiful record with wine, it's strange if you don't open the yellow tone." Don't feel uncomfortable, go to the back and take care of it, don't make any mistakes, you don't have to leave me for a moment to protect me."
Song Xiaoai glanced around alertly, was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Liu Dabang's mallet is ready, I picked a few of the most clever subordinates to pretend to be believers, for fear that someone will miss it, I have prepared eight people to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
"Hmm!" Yang Ling's smile faded, he paced forward two steps, looking at the snow-white courtyard in a daze, a gust of wind came, and the snow foam on the eaves blew into the back of his neck, Yang Ling couldn't help but shrink a little: "Xiao Ai, you said that I did this, is it too vicious?" ”
Song Xiaoai walked to him on tiptoe and hummed softly: "Hmm! It's a bit ruthless! ”
"Alas", Yang Ling sighed, and the snow foam blew into his neck again, but this time he didn't move.
Song Xiaoai stared at his back from behind, suddenly smiled sweetly, and said softly: "My lord, their sins cannot be atoned!" The Ming canonical punishment is also death, confusion or death, for them, what difference does it make to die?
Didn't the adults already check their identities? These gods are indeed some swindlers who were driven out of Beijing by Emperor Hongzhi in the past, and the evil deeds of collecting money and deceiving people here cannot be concealed at all, but those foolish people believe in vain.
Adults feel that their ideas are not gentlemanly enough, but if the use of gentleman's means is at the cost of taking the lives of many people, and the use of villain means is only to get rid of a few villains, then why should adults be villains for the public? ”
Yang Ling turned his head in huo, met her bright eyes, stared at it for a long time, and suddenly exhaled a long breath as if he had put down a heavy burden, and said with a happy smile: "Well said, treat a gentleman as a gentleman; For villains, treat them as villains! I don't go to hell, who goes to hell? Lord Yang said that he will be a villain Yang again! ”
As soon as Yang Ling said this, he heard a cheer in the hall, and then a clear female voice sang: "The side of the bed, the pillow is biased, gently pick up the little golden lotus." The body moved, the buttocks were upside down, and he was unconscious and sore. Call my brother to play slowly, waiting for the sister to pass the test together. For a while, half a time, the soul flew into the sky. ”
Song Xiaoai's face turned as red as an apple, and Yang Ling smiled dryly: "What is this?" ”
The corners of Song Xiaoai's mouth were crooked, and she said stupidly: "This is Yuanqu!" ”
"Woo~~Woo~~~~", Zhong Xin rang in unison, drums and cymbals sounded, and the four living Buddhas burned incense and meditated, and finally appeared.
The high platform was next to a high wall, and at the front of the platform was a row of seats, and the floor was covered with thick felt, which was for the high-ranking officials and gentry to sit. However, all the officials stood aside respectfully, and Yang Ling had no choice but to follow the customs of the locals, standing in the first place, waiting for the monks in the dome tent temporarily erected next to him to appear.
The periphery of the high platform was surrounded by Yang Ling's officers and soldiers, and the people were isolated, and could only watch from more than 20 zhang away, as soon as the living Buddha appeared, these believers knelt down one after another, bowed and worshipped, and were extremely pious, I am afraid that the emperor would not have such a great deterrent power when he went out on patrol.
The officials were serious, some of them were flushed, some were burping, but they wanted to put on a solemn appearance, their feet were unstable, swaying, and it was a little ridiculous to look at.
"Labor the four masters, Yang is terrified, the four masters, please sit down", Yang Ling walked forward accompanied by Zhang Zhong and Fan Moli, and said to the four gods with a face full of awe and fear.
Wisdom Shou raised his eyebrows, glanced at Yang Ling indifferently, and said in his mouth: "Amitabha, the prince of the country does not have to be polite, my generation is a monk, practicing hard, and is purifying all sentient beings." Guogong sincerely devotes himself to the Buddha and holds a grand event to propagate the Dharma, which is actually the protector of my Buddhism. ”
Speaking of this, he smiled faintly and said: "We and Guogong are also long-cherished, and it is fate to meet today." Lao Wei borrowed a glass of Yaochi immortal wine and saluted the Guogong! ”
As he spoke, the master of wisdom waved his hand, and his big sleeves rolled up like a cloud, and a delicate jade cup suddenly appeared in his palm, and the water and wine in the cup were overflowing.
The officials under the four were envious: This is Yaochi Immortal Wine, and only the four living Buddhas are qualified to take it from the Heavenly Palace, and only the grandfather of the country is qualified to taste it, where have we ever encountered it. The believers in the distance suddenly saw the Buddha's miracle again, and they also excitedly shouted and worshipped.
Yang Ling secretly said in his heart: "This magic trick is good, if you want to put it on hold, that is, a magician of the equestrian troupe, pack it well, maybe it is still a master."
He carefully took the wine and took a sip of the immortal wine with great reverence.
It's not that he doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, it's just that the deceptive tricks similar to the four living Buddhas have been publicized by later generations, and everyone has known them all, and Yang Ling has the foresight of Mu Shengyuan, plus if he really cultivates to become a god and Buddha, how can he be so greedy for Hongchen and make friends with cool officials and corrupt officials? He naturally didn't believe that these four people were really Buddhas.
However, in order to prevent the four demon monks from doing any evil ways, Yang Ling really prepared two buckets of black dog blood, and once it was really weird, he would splash him with dog blood. Now he doesn't have anything to worry about, even if he is a little old man who is indiscriminate, he still knows that if he wants to capture the old man, he will give the target a little sweetness first, and it is too late for the four demon monks to stammer, so naturally he will not deliberately harm him, so Yang Ling took a sip boldly.
"Well, the good daughter is red, and it's not all like it seems to have added a little bamboo leaf green."
Yang Guogong, who had tasted the authentic good wine of the north and south, licked his lips, and then said in surprise: "Good wine, good wine, it is really a jade liquid, and it is extremely sweet." Oh, Yang can have such a grand blessing, I really have to thank the four holy monks. Four masters, please take a seat, there is a little vegetarian wine here, and the four masters will eat some of it."
Monk Zhicong brushed his long hair, and said with a smile: "Amitabha, the believers have been waiting outside for a long time, and I will go to the altar to say the Dharma and chant the scriptures in the morning." As for vegetarian wine, hehehe".
He laughed loudly, looking back at the other three monks, Zhishan smiled and said: "Don't hide it from the Guogong, the four of my senior brothers have practiced for more than two Jiazi, and the Tao is deep, and it is not far from the period of the great success of Bai Yue's ascension." The grains of the world, hehe, have not tasted for decades."
Seeing that Zhishan's face was full of red light, his brain was shining, but he said that Bigu had been in the valley for decades, Yang Ling almost laughed, and hurriedly complimented: "Yes, yes, these ordinary people's drinking things, how can they get into the eyes of the four gods and monks."
He respectfully handed back the cup to a small novice next to Zhishan and asked, "Isn't it true that the four masters ascended to the altar to teach and chant the Dharma?" ”
Master Zhishan bowed slightly, Yang Ling hurriedly led the four divine sticks to the front of the stage, and the two lines of small novices ascended to the stage first, carrying the four lotus thrones, and also Zhong Xin magic utensils and various utensils. In the middle of the high platform, the Buddha statue of Shakyamuni is offered, and the statue is seated behind it, indicating that the master is preaching on behalf of the Buddha.
However, the four holy masters did not sit on the futon in front of the Buddha, but placed the lotus seats at the four corners of the Buddha Shakyamuni, each ascended to the throne, put his hands together, and the Dharma was majestic, just like an Arhat in front of the Buddha.
Ringing bells, chimes, incense praises, worship, and melodious Sanskrit singing, for a moment the crowd was solemn, and the wisdom master sat still, but raised his voice and said: "You must know that hearing the Dharma is the supreme cause, you must be sincere, respectful, not scattered, hold your breath, listen to the sound of the Dharma, if you can follow the law, you will live up to the Buddha's grace." ”
All the novices, the people outside, and even many of the officials clasped their hands together and said in unison: "I respectfully ask the holy monk to explain the true meaning of my Buddha, and the south has no clouds to gather the Bodhisattva Mahasattva, and the south has no clouds to gather the Bodhisattva Mahasattva, and the south has no sea to gather the Bodhisattva Mahasattva."
Yang Ling put his hands together and his mouth was shigan, his eyes were dripping and rolling, and he suddenly saw Song Xiaoai's whole body armor, a sword under his ribs, and a small half of a grass and wood stalk in his mouth, with long legs and leisurely, wandering under the Dharma platform, his beautiful figure was wrapped in a nervous robe, the curves were extremely attractive, and his appearance was both handsome and handsome.
When meeting his gaze, Song Xiaoai's willow eyebrows were raised, but the grass stalk in the warped little mouth was pressed downward, Yang Ling understood, bowed slightly, and also closed his eyes and read matter-of-factly: "Nan Wu Master Shakyamuni Buddha."
If you want to mix in the Beijing Division, just with a mouth is naturally bluffing, the four demon monks really memorized a few Buddhist scriptures, Zhicong Zen Master proclaimed the Buddha's number, and sang: "Guanzi Bodhisattva, when he walks deep Prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and all the sufferings are overcome, and the relics are relic." Color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and it is the same when you want to know it."
He first recited a passage of the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra, and then said, "All the good knowledge, all the Dharma teachers, all lay people, the old man is reciting it today, and everyone knows it, and it is called the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra. This word of heart is very important, becoming a Buddha is also the heart, creating sentient beings is also the heart, heaven is also the heart, hell is also the heart, so the generous Buddha Huayan Sutra says: 'If people want to know, all Buddhas in the three worlds should be contemplated in the Dharma realm, and all idealism is created'."
To learn Buddhism, you must know your surname and see your heart, and this heart must have a heart, a heart, and a sincere heart. If you lose this mind, you will suffer immeasurably, and the cycle of life and death will be endless, but only the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will understand this mind and fully understand that this mind is called a Buddha. So how do you be sincere? Take refuge in my Buddha, believe in my Buddha, always do good deeds, plant good causes with the merits of this life, and obtain the good fruits of the next life. Duh! All beings are equal, who is stupid and who is clear? The Buddha's heart sees the surname, and the Daigo is empowered".
"Irrigation, irrigation, all on?" Outside the high wall is the low shack built by the short-term workers of the dark family against the wall, since the dark family was suppressed, it has been abandoned, but now there are more than ten shadows swaying sneakily inside, and the one with the largest body is Liu Daba.
"Don't worry, my lord, this morning I poured the fourth case, the brothers got all the pig intestines, sheep intestines, mule and horse intestines in Bazhou, and the whole child circled around the firewood inside and out several times on the platform, and all the small eyes were pierced on the top, and the intestines were filled every day for the past two days. It is estimated that the firewood below is soaked in oil, and for fear of vomiting smoke, the brothers puffed in for a while to ensure that ** is out of control."
"Hey, hey, hey" Liu Dabang mallet thief laughed twice and said: "It's done, wait for the news from General Song, the black dog's blood is ready, in case the demon monk really understands the demon law, he will be splashed with the dog."
One of the guards said worriedly: "My lord, I heard that the people of Bazhou have seen their great magical powers, it can't be a real living immortal, right?" In that case, we're in trouble."
"Impossible!" Liu Dabang said: "You don't know, right? I heard that the Lord of my family and Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain are brothers, and they are the best at subduing demons and subduing demons. The marshal not only borrowed the wind and borrowed cigarettes, but when he was on the Qiantang River, 800 officers and soldiers were suddenly attacked by 3,000 Japanese pirates.
The handsome man of my family only recited a spell, the waves rolled up half a day high, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea came to help, and the three thousand Japanese were dragged to the river by Wang Ba Two thousand seven, and the remaining three hundred were lit with sky lanterns, that night, ho! Bright Hall".
"I've heard of it, I've heard of it", several Zhuang soldiers nodded again and again, and the originally uneasy mood immediately settled down, Zhang Tianshi's brother said that the four great monks are monsters, then it must be wrong, just wait for the order to set fire. A few people hurriedly returned to the wall, which was like a stove pit, with four black holes, and a high platform on the other side of the wall was like a fire pit.
The four monks not only explain the meaning of the scriptures, but also talk about a certain year and a certain place, how someone believes in the Dharma, worships the Buddha sincerely, donates incense, and later encounters some great misfortune, and the result is to save the day.
What's even more amazing is that although there is no sky when the four of them preach, the sandalwood wafting from nowhere, although it is in the open land, it still lasts, which makes people even more convinced that the four eminent monks are the masters of the Tao.
After Zen Master Zhicong finished speaking about the scriptures, the four eminent monks clasped their palms together and chanted in unison: "May with this merit, solemnize the Pure Land of the Buddha, report the fourfold grace, and help the three paths." If there is a person who has seen or heard, he will develop bodhichitta and do his best to recite his body and be born in the realm of bliss together. Nam no Amitabha".
Under the deliberate indulgence of Yang Ling's officers and soldiers, the believers got closer and closer to the high platform, and when they heard the verses, all the believers were busy and fearful, and chanted in unison: "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha ~~~".
Zhong Xin rang in unison, Sanskrit chanted again, and the lecture ended. The statue of Buddha Shakyamuni was carried down by the small novices, but the four lotus seats did not move, the small novices placed a huge incense burner in the place where the Buddha statue was originally placed, the incense burner was separated by two layers on the lower top furnace, the lower layer was split and burned with fine sandalwood, and a huge bundle of incense pillars stood there on the upper layer, smoking billowing smoke.
The people all knew that the Buddha was going to perform miracles again, and they were all excited, and the little novices were busy on the stage under the command of several big monks, moving and laying all kinds of things, and the four black-bearded warrior monks stood in front of the stage, and no one was allowed to come on stage to help or watch.
Yang Ling and Lord Fan, Zhang Gonggong, and Liang Hong invited the four monks down and offered fragrant tea, not knowing that the four monks said that they had not eaten the world for a long time, and the fireworks package did not include tea, or that they were really thirsty for preaching, so they not only drank it, but also stacked the empty cups on the lid and signaled that they were full.
Yang Ling and others praised the four monks for their profound Buddhism, and the faces of the four masters couldn't help but show a reserved smile. They said that they were working so hard to preach the scriptures and teachings today, just to let Yang Ling enter the palace, as long as he became a disciple, maybe he would be able to return to Wanchun Palace and Shou'an Palace.
These four people were originally the four great scourges that Li Guang recruited into Beijing, and they were indispensable in Beijing, and they were originally pretending to be gods, but unfortunately they had been hypnotizing too much and felt too good, Li Guang's dead eunuch really thought he was a living immortal, and he actually took the trouble to calculate feng shui for Emperor Hongzhi, and asked the emperor to build a pavilion on Jingshan, saying that it was a good omen.
Who would have thought that this pavilion had just been built, Yongfu's sister, the little princess who was not yet ten years old at the time, fell ill and died, the queen mother was furious, thinking that Li Guangjian Pavilion was angry with Tai Sui, and he was held responsible.
But the capital is prosperous and atmospheric, and Bazhou can't compare, and now that there is a chance to return to Beijing, how can the four demon monks not be moved?
Seeing that the four eminent monks were very appreciated by the national government, Zhang Zhong and Lord Fan also felt that there was light on their faces, such a talent is not, such a talent, it is from my rule, can it be disgraceful?
Zhang Zhong boasted: "Guogong, the four masters have vast magical powers and strong mana, if you see their magical powers in a while, then you will really be shocked."
Yang Ling was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Can the Duke of China be lucky enough to see the four masters perform miracles? Oh, this trip to Bazhou is really worth it. ”
The four monks of Zhishan smiled silently, at this time, the people around also shouted to the holy monk to show a miracle, the call became higher and higher, and gradually converged into a high-pitched sound, Yang Ling and the officials also urged, the four monks Shi Shiran got up and climbed the high platform in the limelight.
At this time, the believers had already crowded under the high platform, mixed with the officers and soldiers, out of reverence for the gods and Buddhas, although the flow of people was crowded, they did not dare to move forward, and spontaneously vacated a distance of more than a zhang from the high platform.
Four monks with big red robes, walked to the front of the copper tripod incense burner, shouted, raised the sleeves of the robe, made angry eyes King Kong, suddenly the golden light around the body was brilliant, the Buddha's light was dense, like an arhat descending to earth, panicked so that the people bowed their heads and bowed, Yang Ling and Zhang Gonggong and others also hurriedly bowed down.
Immediately, the four monks performed in turn, sitting on the nail board, swallowing charcoal fire, taking things from the air, and changing the living, and the large-scale magic party officially opened on the third day of the new year with the people, and the exclamations sounded from time to time, Yang Ling was worried about the people arranged by Song Xiaoai, but don't see these so-called miracles, I was afraid and fearful, and I didn't dare to start, so my eyes kept searching for Song Xiaoai's figure.
Fortunately, the gods and Buddhas of these Zhuang families themselves have never been very interested in the gods of other families, and they have heard a lot of miracles about Yang Ling, and the orders have been given by the head people who have been accustomed to obeying since the day they understood them, so they were not moved.
Song Xiaoai saw that Yang Ling was always staring at her, knowing what he was worried about, she couldn't help but smile at him, and quietly made a reassuring gesture, but Rao was like this, Yang Ling's heart was still pounding with nervousness.
The final finale is finally coming, 'Phoenix Nirvana'. This is the most powerful and demagogic miracle performance of the four gods, the fire is all over the sky, the four people sit in the fire, cover their hair and facial features with robes, put out the fire with tea and look at it again, the clothes are as good as new, safe and sound. The flame in front of the stage felt scorching, but the four of them were unharmed in the fire, if it weren't for the true Buddha who practiced the Tao without Vajra, how could he have this kind of ability?
The little novices on the stage all stepped down, leaving only the four great monks to kneel and worship at the four corners, they were the personal disciples of the four great monks, and only to hear the Zhishan monk chant loudly: "Phoenix Nirvana, reborn from the fire!" ”
Zhiyuan continued: "After Shakyamuni Buddha passed away, he burned his body in flames, leaving 84,000 relics, which were built by Emperor Ashoka and treasured to the world. Those who are on fire burn their flesh and break their attachments. ”
Wisdom and wisdom said in unison: "The poor monk burns himself with karmic fire, crosses the suffering of all people, cleanses the sins of the world, and purifies the heart of the Buddha!" ”
"Nan no Amitabha!" The four monks put their palms together and declared the Buddha's number, Yang Ling held his breath and stared at it with wide eyes, only to see the incense and fireworks in the middle of the four people suddenly grand, Mars spread all over the sky, dazzling eyes in an instant, so that people couldn't help but stare at it, at this moment, "boom" sounded, the ground caught fire, and the four monks were surrounded by fire.
Yang Ling couldn't help but regret it, he knew that magic tricks often use some dazzling and dazzling obvious actions to attract people's attention, and took the opportunity to secretly engage in some other actions, the copper tripod flame became prosperous for no reason, and the sparks flew all over the sky.
The sleeves of the four monks' robes were rolled, covering their mouths and faces, and the sound of chanting in a low voice began, and the people looked at it with their eyes, and also put their palms together and chanted the scriptures, according to the regulations, the four monks finished chanting, and the fire around the Great Buddha horn had to be extinguished. Yang Ling hurriedly went to see Song Xiaoai, Song Xiaoai was also nervously searching the crowd, and after a while, he suddenly turned around and winked at Yang Ling, smiled mischievously, and a big stone in Yang Ling's heart suddenly fell to the ground.
He has not yet understood the mystery of this fire, and standing under the stage the flames are surging suddenly, it is indeed hot, and there can be no technology to make cold flames in this era, there should be no problem with the fire, I am afraid that the problem is mainly to use the high platform, the fire and so on The visual confusion, looking at the fire under the stage, in fact, the distance from the four people can not hurt people, if the robes of the four people are asbestos and other fireproof things, then the tea kung fu is safe.
This is just Yang Ling's own speculation, whether the internal organ is like this, he doesn't know. Looking at the four people sitting in the fire, as if the flames were far away, and there was indeed a great appearance, Yang Ling couldn't help but smile faintly, at this time, the wooden planks under the thin layer of loess on the stage began to burn.
The bottom is supported by countless pieces of wood, the wood is soaked in oil, there are gaps left between the woods, the fire is lit, Liu Dabang mallet leads more than ten Zhuang soldiers who have become arson experts in Duzhangman with a big bellows and then blow the wind vigorously, the fire burned the four monks around the first to find that something was wrong, the feet were hot, and the steaming smoke came out of the loess, in the eyes of the people in the audience, the miracle of the living Buddha showed that the majesty was beyond the world, but they knew that there must be something strange, and the four of them shouted urgently: "Master! ”
They were about to rush forward, but at this time, the flames in the center of the high platform had penetrated the wooden plank, and the thin loess seeped down, and the flames suddenly burst out, and the flames of a foot high burst out of the ground, and the four people hurriedly staggered away.
"Master!" The four people screamed urgently, but the four monks sitting in the middle of the high platform were still silent, and at this time there was no one standing on the stage, and the four people turned over and jumped off the stage, so anxious that they turned around.
Yang Ling looked up at the flames, and sighed to Zhang Zhong: "Father-in-law Zhang, this is really a miracle, such a big fire, unmoving, if it is not a great creation, great magical powers, how can you accept it calmly?" This fire is fierce, Samadhi is really hot, and it is nothing more than that! ”
"Uh, yes, yes!" Zhang Zhong was a little puzzled, he had seen a monk go to the fire, as if there was no such big movement, today this is well! It must be that the prince of the country is here today, and the four monks have shown great magical powers, alas! The eyes of the Buddha also look at people low.
Mu Shengren was supported by Miao Gang, standing at the height of an attic, watching the flames soaring, the entire high platform turned into a torch, and tears were running across his scarred face: "Mother, beloved wife, you should look under the nine springs, those four demon monks, today and today they finally played with fire [***], and they suffered retribution, woo woo woo ~~~~"
He choked up and couldn't go on, he couldn't help crying loudly, Miao Gang persuaded him warmly, while looking back at the flame mountain, he couldn't help but shudder: "Mother, I used to feel that the surname Yang was like a shrimp ball, and the ladies were willing to rub it, and they were willing to rub it, and now when I look at it, we can't do it if we are thieves." Who's the toughest? The most ruthless person in the world is this class of officials! ”
The flames were raging, and there were no people standing around the high platform, and everyone hurriedly retreated, and the big sticks and mallets on the other side of the wall had blocked the entrance to the cave and came in from the outside. The people also feel that today's fire has been burning for a longer time, and the fire is getting bigger, and it is about to burn the sky.
Although Yang Ling smiled calmly, he was a little unbearable at first, his heart twitched and twitched, but at this moment, he saw the fire and no one was seen, but his mood calmed down, and he took the opportunity to praise loudly: "The four monks are really monks who have practiced the Tao, Bigu for many years, are about to ascend, and have high mana. ”
"Yes, yes!" The officials responded to Liao Liao, but they were stunned by the fire, but the hundreds of people were ecstatic, and many of them were excited with tears in their eyes, dancing with their hands, and their lips trembling, and they didn't know how to praise the greatness of the four great monks.
The fire burned too fiercely, and the crackling sound finally gradually became smaller, and suddenly, with a bang, the platform completely collapsed, and the fire that had just been small increased again, and the fire ashes splashed everywhere. The most frightened thing was the close attendants of the four eminent monks, all of them as if they had lost their souls, staring at the collapsed fire platform in a daze.
The Zhuang family's blowing arrows, one is enough to make a giant bear run for a moment and start to paralyze the whole body, if the eight blow arrow masters, every two people are responsible for one, and the quenching poison on the arrow is doubled, the four demon monks can only immediately seem to be immobilized, don't want to move again, and make a half-sound.
The moment they covered their faces with monks' robes, eight small blow arrows had been shot quickly, piercing into their bodies, four evildoers, with compassion as the heart, in the name of God and Buddha, I don't know how many people have been killed, and the silver monks and thieves who have been ruined and ruined, and finally burned away their sins in the fire.
The flames grew smaller, and at least they could see the pile of ashes on the ground, and everyone stared at them with wide eyes and stunned, and there was no longer a single humanoid thing in it. The officials were still calm and whispered to each other, but the believers shouted in panic: "What about the priests? What about the Living Buddha? Why are the four old immortals missing? ”
Yang Ling looked at the group of monks with earthy faces, and secretly sneered in his heart, he suddenly grabbed two steps, tore his throat and shouted, "I understand, the four masters have shattered the void!" ”
After shouting a sentence, there was no movement for a long time, and after a long time, "Huh? Shattered Void? Liang Hong repeated it like a goose.
"yes!" Yang Ling appreciated his cooperation, patted him on the shoulder, and said loudly: "No worries, no obstacles, no obstacles, the Great Dao of Certification, the four masters have once enlightened, shattered the void, and entered the supreme fairyland!" ”
Yang Ling said, as soon as he turned around and lifted his robe, the people around him suddenly realized, and their hearts that were at a loss were immediately filled with fanatical religious beliefs: Yes, don't the masters always say that they have practiced for many years and are about to soar? Unexpectedly, but today, epiphany, epiphany, this is really an epiphany flying immortal.
The people hurriedly fell to their knees and worshipped, and many burst into tears of joy. The officials were drawing souls in their hearts, and when they saw that the grandfather and the people all knelt down, they hurriedly knelt down and bowed to the fire.
Just bowed three times, Song Xiaoai suddenly looked at the sky and exclaimed, "Grandpa Guo, look! ”
Yang Ling looked up, a foot of yellow silk fluttering, falling from the sky, all the people looked up and saw it, everyone was surprised, Zhang Zhong grabbed the first one to take the yellow silk, glanced at it hurriedly, and shouted: "Oh my God, it's the letter of the four masters of wisdom, wisdom, wisdom, goodness, and wisdom, isn't it, it's the decree of the law, it's the decree of the Buddha!" ”
The people suddenly boiled, and this time even the officials were no longer worried, and many people flocked to it.
Yang Ling took the opportunity to reprimand Song Xiaoai in a low voice: "You blow high enough, if this falls into the fire, my plan will be ruined, and I won't show it off next time!" ”
Song Xiaoai stuck out her tongue and couldn't help but smile: "Yes, my lord!" ”
"The four poor monks are now said to have completed their merits, and they have attained the Great Dao, which has been shattered into the void! Shattered Void, really Shattered Void! ”
"Don't make any noise, don't make any noise, what's the Buddha saying in the back?"
The crowd was tightly crowded, surrounded by Zhang Zhong in the middle.
"We have attained positive results in the western heavens, and we will pray for the blessings of the people in the land of the Buddha of Shengtian. The incense money donated by the people of Bazhou, the Buddhist hall to be built, and the four holy plans of our four saints were all handed over to Weiguo Gong for disposal. The prince of the country has a long-cherished relationship with us, and he is a senior respecter, and he will distribute this money to the poor on our behalf, and give alms to the people, and the temple property donated by the believers everywhere can be demolished by the prince of Weiguo and changed into a school palace and a school."
"Buddha, Buddha, what great compassion! The Buddha went to the west and still remembered our people in Bazhou."
In the midst of the discussion, Yang Ling suddenly stepped forward and shouted: "Yang Ling~~~ receive the Four Holy Decrees!" ”
"That's right, the Buddha said that he has a fate with the Duke of Weiguo, the four saints become Buddhas, this is a great event, I have to let the Grandpa of the Kingdom preside over it, and celebrate it vigorously!" The people were in high spirits.
Yang Ling snatched Huang Aya from Zhang Zhong's hand, and pretended to unfold it, but a sinister aura quietly condensed between his eyebrows: "Killing the four demon monks is very simple, but if you are really praised as Buddhas, it will inevitably lead to more superstitious Buddhism in Bazhou!"
Hmph, burning you four thieves is just the first step, you have become a Buddha, and I have made a desperate plan. Wait for my serial scheme! Within half a month, the Duke of China will drag you down from the altar again, so that Bazhou will have no god stick from now on! ”
(To be continued)
