At the end of last year, the Nanli mission that visited a product of the first product, after hardships and dangers finally returned to the country, on the eve of returning to the capital of Phoenix, a set of commentaries came out of the market, and the wizards were all written as the reincarnation of the spirit child, the possession of the golden immortal, the story was exaggerated and mysterious, but it was catering to the pride of the people, and in the blink of an eye, it became popular in the whole city, and then spread to the Quartet, in a few months, it became the most popular set of books and words among the people of Nanli, almost as long as you enter a teahouse, you can hear Dr. Tea telling this story.

Tan Tuzi is the gentleman who compiled this set of books.

When Song Yang and the others faced the saint for the first time after returning to the court, Feng Long also specially sent Tan Tuzi and spoke a verse in front of everyone. The emperor is a young man, a lively and playful surname, and this is just to have a good time, although it is not in accordance with the rules to let the storyteller go to the palace, but it is harmless, but it is just to have a good time.

is also because he once got along with the same hall, so Song Yang is a little familiar with Tan Tuzi. Listening to the other party's name again, I also remembered this person.

Tan Tuzi's status is humble, but he is a person who has been to the Golden Palace and lectured to the emperor, and if he has such a glory, ordinary people on the street will be polite to him, unless he commits a big crime, he will not fall into such a field.

Song Yang frowned again and asked, "How could you get hurt, who chased you?" At the same time, he waved his hand, and Hong Bowei also confirmed that this person was not a threat, and let him go.

Tan Tuzi read the rules, and wanted to bow down and salute after he got free, but his body was too weak, and he couldn't stand steadily when he bowed, and he fell down headlong towards Song Yang. The latter hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it, first tore open his shirt to check the injury, a knife more than a foot long slid across the chest, into the flesh is not deep or shallow, it will not be fatal at that time, but if the wound is not treated properly, it will definitely die.

Tan Tuzi should know some emergency treatment methods, he smeared a thick layer of grass and wood ash on the wound, barely to stop the bleeding, at the moment his body is weak and abnormal, and he can't speak at length, just gasping and intermittently: "The villain has never been a criminal, and the person who wants to kill me is inexplicable... Hou Ye, help..."

Song Yang and Xiao Yu glanced at each other, both of them had doubts in their eyes, Song Yang didn't say anything for the time being, put the old man flat on the ground, took out the needle bag he carried with him, and first sealed several of Tan Tuzi's big points to help him keep his vitality.

At this time, Cheng He also got the news, and came out of the yamen with the guards, Xiao Yu was afraid that his sister would ask him why he was outside, so he hurriedly stepped forward and told Tan Tuzi's situation first, Ren Churong listened, and turned his eyes to Lord Murong.

Murong County Commander is a shrewd character, much stronger than the original Master Zhou, as soon as he saw the county lord looking over, he understood what she meant, and immediately shook his head and said: "Every time the subordinate officials sent over by the Criminal Department have carefully read it, this old man is not wanted." ”

Tan Tuzi is not an important person, but the most important character in his set of books is Song Yang, he blows Song Yang majestic, Ren Churong still wants to help him, it is not wanted by the official family, and the matter is simple, just as he was about to say something more, suddenly a string of iron whistles sounded loudly in the distance, which was a signal sent back by the guards on duty in front, indicating that there was an enemy attack, and there were quite a few people.

The surrounding Hongbo Wei people frowned, Qin Cong's eyes flashed with anger, and there was no need to command, one of the fastest Red Bowei jumped in the direction of the transmission to find out the news. Soon the news came back, and to everyone's surprise, it was not a bandit or a gangster, let alone a person from the rivers and lakes, but ...... A group of monks, all warrior monks, there are more than 50 people in total, and now the people have been stopped by the front, but the monks are very noisy and noisy, and they may move at any time, and the outposts have been supported in place, whether to rush or kill only waiting for the rear order.

Ren Churong looked at Tan Tuzi: "It's the monk who is chasing you?" After he confirmed, the county lord seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Because you made up that set of books?" ”

Tan Tuzi smiled bitterly and nodded, Ren Churong sneered, his mouth moved, and he was about to pass the order, but he suddenly saved something, he actually lowered his head and laughed secretly, and then walked to Song Yang's side: "You pass the order." ”

The town is indeed controlled by Hongbowei, but this fifty-mile radius is the fiefdom of the Marquis of Changchun...... Song Yang didn't care, it didn't matter if the county lord ordered him, and now he didn't have to give his own order: "Let it in, I want to hear what they have to say." ”

The guards received the order to go, Qin Cone shouted in a low voice, and the red wave guards in the town were immediately divided into two parts, more than thirty people stayed in place to protect the princess and others, and the others dispersed, climbing to a high point to find cover, the bow and crossbow were wound but not stealth, they were not going to ambush, but to fight majestic, momentum.

Song Yang looked down at Tan Tuzi, who was still lying on the ground, and said to Xiao Jiu and the dumb man who ran out to see the excitement: "Carry the old man in first." ”

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cheng He said to Song Yang: "There may be monks practicing martial arts in the nearby temples, but it is impossible for any temple to have so many warrior monks, it should be made up of several temples."

Just when Tan Tuzi was supported and entered the yamen, a noise came, and many monks were led by the guards to see Chang Chunhou.

Most of the monks are burly, with powerful steps, or with a precept knife or a monk's stick, especially the one who is the leader, who is in his early thirties, with a big face and a round waist, and a thick Yue Zen staff in his hand, which is very weighty.

When the distance between the two sides was more than ten zhang, there were Hongbo guards who stopped each other. Song Yang didn't pay much attention to his identity, so he asked first, "What is the matter with coming to town?" ”

The sturdy warrior monk led by him looked like a torch and glared at Song Yang: "Tan Tuzi fell into the demon path and bewitched the people, this seat is arrested by the law, and no one else should get out of the way as soon as possible." ”

Murong County Commander's eyes were shrewd, and he saw that the county lord intended to protect Tan Tuzi, and he was the first to sneer and speak: "The monk arrested people, but let the court officials avoid it?" He raised his voice abruptly, and his tone changed to majesty: "How different is your words from rebellion! ”

The eldest master threw over a big hat as soon as he opened his mouth, and the monk's momentum really subsided a little, but there was no fear in his tone: "The demons bewitch the people, preach the evil demons and disturb the purity, my Buddha disciples should be arrested and eradicated, the law is everywhere, and Huili is duty-bound." Buddhism has its own Buddhist law, which has nothing to do with the imperial court and has nothing to do with it, please get out of the way. ”

The monk with the Dharma name Huili mouthed one decree at a time, and Song Yang heard it extremely harshly, frowning and interjecting: "Whose decree?" What is the purpose of the law? ”

Huili looked at Song Yang again and asked rhetorically, "Which one are you?" ”

Without Song Yang opening his mouth, Qin Cone answered on his behalf and reported the 'trade name' of 'Changchunhou'. Huili looked disdainful and cooled down.

Song Yang is not surprised, Tan Tuzi said that the story is a rumor to confuse the public, and Song Qishi, the "protagonist of the gossip", must also be a demon.

Monk Huili didn't dare to do anything to him, but he didn't have a good face, his expression was impatient, and he didn't pay attention to Song Yang's previous question, and asked himself, "Where is Tan Tuzi now?" ”

Song Yang smiled, stretched out his hand and went all the way to the county office: "It's inside, you want to take people, rush." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden hum of crossbow strings, and a red wave guard on the roof shot out, the sharp arrow was impartial, and it was shooting into the front of the head monk's feet, the monk was surprised and looked up at the same time, only to find that a crossbow with a handle had already been aimed at them from a high place, and the taste of being under the sharp arrow was so pleasant, and the monks' faces changed slightly.

Qin Cone said in a cold voice: "As long as you step over that crossbow arrow on the ground, you are intending to stab and impact the county government." ”

Qin Chong's Taoism is clearly drawn, both crimes are rebellion, and he died in vain. Song Yang didn't have the demeanor of a marquis, pointed to the yamen again, and smiled at them: "Tan Tuzi is inside." ”

Huili held the Zen staff in his hand, gritted his teeth and pushed himself hard, and after a few moments, another thinner monk pulled Huili back behind him.

The thin monk has slender eyes and thin lips, and he seems to be a shrewd character, just like Huili, he ignores Song Yang and the others, and only says to Murong County: "Poor monk Huiyan, I have seen adults." If you are deceived by demons or just confused for a while, we will retreat first, and come back tomorrow, hoping that then you will wake up with your blessings and recite the compassion of my Buddha. After speaking, he nodded to the county order, turned around and wanted to take the monks away.

Unexpectedly, there was another crossbow string trembling, and the second crossbow arrow shot down from a high place, but this arrow was inserted at the end of the monks' queue, which startled them again, and Qin Cone spoke again: "I just received a report from an old man surnamed Tan, there are evil thieves who have committed murder and injured people for no reason, you have to stay first, and the Rong Guan's family has clarified the case, and you can only leave when you are innocent." ”

This group of monks came inexplicably, from the Marquis of Changchun to the county lord, they didn't pay attention to it, if they didn't ask to understand, they would go back like that, and Qin Cone, the red wave guard, would not have to go down again.

A monk is a monk after all, how can he fight with a veteran ruffian like Qin Cone, now he can't advance or retreat, and everyone frowns when he freezes in place, and at this time, suddenly the ground trembles, and the horn rolls and the horse's hooves rumble...... When the Uighurs learned that something was wrong, Alihan gave an order, and three hundred knights followed the wind. They got the news late, but the speed of the dispatch was by no means ambiguous, and it only took a moment to go from the set of horses to the whole team and coming.

The three hundred cavalry were inconspicuous on the plain battlefield, but they were powerful when they gathered in the town. After entering Yanziping, although the road is narrow, the formation is not chaotic, the brigade is divided into squads, with the horn as the order to respond to each other, rushing like a gallop, the horses neigh, the warriors shouting, the scimitars have been unsheathed against the rising sun, the light of the knife reflects the four directions, there is no intention of stopping.

It was not until they were only thirty paces away from the warrior monk that Song Yang waved his hand to the cavalry from afar, and Alihan had been looking at the king, and he signaled, and as soon as he raised his hand on the horse, the three hundred elite horsemen said to stop, and in the blink of an eye, the horses' hooves dissipated, and the Uighurs regained their momentum.

The monks may have good martial arts, but they grew up in the Qingjing Temple, where have they seen this kind of battlefield charge, a few people fell to the ground on the spot, and the rest of them were as white as earth. Alihan frightened the group of monks, and he felt very bored, scratching the back of his head and laughing, looking like a fat old lady, his smile revealed kindness.

Dozens of warrior monks were frightened, but the shrewd Hui Yan threw away the ring knife with a 'dang' sound, and said loudly: "Yu is not shocked, Yu is calm, my Buddha is clear in my heart, all senior brothers, please sit down." As he spoke, he sat on the ground with his hands folded and began to chant Buddhist scriptures aloud.

The other monks also followed his example and threw their weapons to recite scriptures on the ground.

Cheng He smiled, Hui Yan had a bit of a thought, and when he was in a dilemma, he could still come up with a way to play tricks. Before, it was a collision or contempt, but the two sides didn't do anything after all, and the monks didn't do anything, but now they all 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot', and the officials can't be rough anymore, otherwise it will be spread out, how to explain to the Buddhists in the world.

Cheng He first passed on the first order: "Collect all the blades and send them to 'Nanwei' to see if the steel mouth can be returned to the furnace for re-refining." ”

'Nanwei' is the name of the ordnance field in Fengyi, Hong Bowei led the order to step forward, the monks continued to chant the scriptures indifferently, the county lord was not in a hurry, looked at the sky, pulled up Xiao Zhu and smiled: "It's time for breakfast." As he spoke, he waved his hand to everyone. The nobles, officials, officials, Uighurs, and others were all dispersed and went back to eat.

The red wave guard in the high place did not move, his face was calm and sharp, and Qin Cone specially shouted before leaving: "Reciting scriptures is a good thing, a good deed, the mages ask for more blessings, and no one can interfere, but if there is a reckless move, most of them still want to storm the yamen." ”

It was not an order, but Hong Bowei, who stayed to monitor the monk, still shouted in unison: "Get an order!" ”

The monks did not dare to move a little, it was easy to sit down, but who knows if if they stood up again, would they shoot a crossbow arrow with the shouts of 'the demon monk is reversed', Hui Yan paused the scriptures, and said in a relaxed tone: "Senior brothers, don't be impatient, the abbot of the great temples has already made arrangements." ”

Song Yang and the others returned to the yamen, first went to visit Tan Tuzi, there was Chang Chunhou personally consulted, the old man was naturally fine, the wound was cleaned, and all the internal and external medicines were used, and Tan Tuzi's spirit also recovered a little, and he told his own experience.

In fact, the old man himself is still confused about this matter...... Mr. Storyteller is a lowly business, but there is also a inheritance in the door, on seniority, worship the ancestors, a while ago he heard his apprentice mention, from the year after the year, there are Buddhist monks who have taken the precepts to find his peers, warning that the set of books they made up is contrary to the Buddhism Qingjing said, and will not be allowed to talk about it in the future.

Monk Nanli is not as powerful as Dayan, he has always been gentle and introverted and kind, so Mr. Storyteller ignored their admonitions, but he didn't expect that someone would soon be punished by the Buddhists. At that time, Tan Tuzi didn't take it too seriously, he himself also believed in Buddhism, and he pondered that maybe there was something in the book that violated the taboo of monks, since it was disrespectful, he couldn't say it anymore, and it was also for this matter that he went to Qingling Temple on the outskirts of Beijing.

Qingling Temple is a small temple that does not enter the stream, the incense is bleak, but Tan Tuzi feels that the Buddha here is more effective than others, so he has been coming here to worship the Buddha for decades, and he has no money to give alms when he is poor, and now he has made a fortune by relying on a strange book, and he has also donated a sum of money to reshape the golden body of the Buddha in the temple.

When he went to Qingling Temple, he originally wanted to ask the abbot where his book was written wrong, intending to know his mistakes and repent, but the old monk just shook his head and smiled bitterly, and whispered three words to him: Run for your life.

After that, no matter how much he asked, the abbot did not speak.

Tan Tuzi vaguely felt that things were in trouble. Don't look at him as just a tea doctor, but he has been in the market all his life, and he is also a little clever, so he calmed down before leaving the temple gate and thought about it carefully.

Monks have to deal with themselves, involving religion, the ordinary government should not interfere, in case of provoking the Buddhists dissatisfied with the state officials, they will be punished by the imperial court, no matter where they flee, most of the local lords turn a blind eye, pretend not to see and let the monks kidnap themselves.

The cause of this incident is still because of the 'Qishi Theory', so let's flee to the fiefdom of the protagonist Song Shenxian...... Tan Tuzi's idea is very correct, the monk said that his gobies confuse the public, and his goblies are all praising Song Yang, if Song Yang doesn't protect him, it is tantamount to admitting that he is also a demon.

When Tan Tuzi fled, Song Yang had already left Beijing. The former fled for his life in a hurry, for fear that he would not run fast enough; The latter's journey was slow, and the state officials along the way were warmly welcomed, and they couldn't even eat if they wanted to, so Tan Tuzi arrived at Yanziping a day later than Song Yang.

But when he fled, he somehow leaked the news, and chased him like a relay in the major temples along the way, fortunately, Tan Tuzi liked to dance with knives and sticks when he was a teenager, and he also had to break through the rivers and lakes.

Sure enough, he is a famous mouth of the Beijing master, even he himself can't figure out why the monk said that he is lying to confuse the public, even if the old man is still seriously injured, he still paints his own experience. However, the time was too long, and everyone was reluctant to listen, and their stomachs were so hungry that they had to move the table and listen to the story while eating breakfast.

After talking about this time, Mr. Tan fell asleep, Ren Churong looked at Song Yang, and apologized slightly: "At the beginning of the year, you asked me to check the movements of the monks, and I paid attention to them for a while, but I saw that they didn't have much movement, and there were many things in the fiefdom, so I put it down for the time being, but I didn't expect ......."

Song Yang smiled: "If you want to say I'm sorry, I can only kowtow to you and return the salute." ”

Cheng He also smiled and turned back to the topic: "This matter will not be over, anyone understands that sending dozens of warrior monks in is to bring their own bad luck, and there will be a follow-up later, as fast as two or three days, and as slow as five or seven days as possible." ”

When he said, Xiao Yu put down the porridge bowl angrily: "Could it be that they still dare to besiege Fengyi and really rebel?" ”

Chu Rong smiled, took a green vegetable and put it into Xiao Yu's porridge bowl: "The siege is impossible, they dare to kill Chang Chunhou if they dare to fight it, and they are not afraid of the sky, according to me, it is still the same as the group of monks outside, come in and play tricks." ”

Xiao Yu was puzzled: "Tricks? ”

"Several big temples, dozens of old monks, shouted to the monks in the temple, gathered the surrounding believers to sit on the ground in the fiefdom and chanted the Buddha, and asked us to hand over Tan Tuzi, and there are no new tricks." Song Yang interface explained.

Xiao Zhuxiu frowned, and chewed the green cabbage root sullenly: "I really want to come thousands of people at once, and pull the banner of the Buddha, and do not fight or make a sit-in demonstration...... It is necessary to provoke civil unrest when it is killed, and it is a way to ignore it... But if you really want to make such a big fuss, Huang Yanjing will let you hand over someone, what should you do? "From Feng Long, he will definitely choose to rest the people, this is a truth that even Her Royal Highness the princess can figure out.

Song Yang was very relaxed about this, shook his head and said: "Don't worry about this, don't be afraid of how much trouble you come, I just don't understand, why did the monks put me up as a target, is it interesting to kill my prestige, what are they trying to do." ”

Ren Churong shrugged his shoulders: "Let's talk about it after checking, it's useless to guess, this time I will check carefully." As he spoke, he put down his chopsticks and got up, and said to Song Yang: "I have to go to the workshop and the villa, you don't have to come with me, just returned to the town, go for a walk, and visit the villagers." ”

When Fengyi first saw it, countless things were waiting for Cheng He to take care of, I don't know whether he felt that the monk was not afraid of making trouble, or he was full of confidence in Chang Chunhou, Ren Churong didn't mention the dozens of monks outside who were still chanting.

She didn't mention it, Song Yang didn't mention it, Xiao Yu couldn't help but mention it, and while following her sister outside, she asked, "What about those monks outside?" ”

Ren Churong smiled: "There is no good ending, when they read it dryly, the bitter fruit should come, you still don't know Song Yang's surname?" ”

followed Ren Churong to divert the topic: "By the way, there is something... Recently, I've been busy every day, and I can't sleep well at night, and you don't sleep honestly, and I'm very annoying, I spent some money to ask Qi Laohan to live in his son's house temporarily, and vacate his house for you to live in, I just sent someone over to clean it up, so you can move over tonight. ”

Xiao Zhu's face turned red, Qi Laohan was Song Yang's neighbor, and the two families were separated by a wall...... In fact, it has nothing to do with last night, Ren Churong implemented this matter before Song Yang came, but Qi Laohan was slow and didn't have time to move yesterday.

At this time, Ren Churong turned his head, reached out and pinched Xiao Zhu's cheek, and smiled: "I just wanted to ask you, why are you so good this morning, did you steal the fairy fruit in your dream?" ”

Xiao Zhu laughed with a smile: "It's not a fairy fruit, it's a fairy spell, and I'll learn it from you when I rush back." ”
