Chapter 364: The Last Tang Traitor (I)
"Great Shamanβ" Cai Zhongman's face changed suddenly.
"I'm sorry, the situation is unclear now, I can't bring a burden-"
Before the great shaman of the Persian temple finished speaking, he could no longer speak.
Because the seemingly weak Jin Manxian Commander had already jumped out of the back hall the moment he opened his mouth to speak, and ran out of the back hall in three steps and two steps, and ran out desperately.
Really fast!
The corners of the big shaman's mouth twitched, there are also many officials in Jinman County, those people are not from the Persian Temple, and those who have converted to Ahura are actually the only ones who are Cai Zhongman. I wanted to kill this guy before leaving, but I didn't expect this guy to react very quickly, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he actually slipped away.
ββ¦β¦ If you have the surname Cai, don't reveal the whereabouts of this seat, or else Ahura, the god of light, will not let you go. The great shaman muttered, walked to the corner of the wall, lifted a stone slab, and jumped in with the two eagle slaves.
The carpet shop in Guanshi was only put down last year, and it was not the stronghold of the Persian Temple in Tingzhou, which was the first stronghold of the Persian Temple in Tingzhou. Of course, this stronghold did not exist for a long time, and it was set up when Cai Zhongman, a Han Chinese who had converted to Ahura, came to Jinman County as a county magistrate. Cai Zhongman has been in Tingzhou for more than ten years and has not been promoted, so this stronghold has existed for more than ten years.
More than ten years ago, his attention was still on An Lushan, who had just begun to rise in the north, and at that time Ma Lu had not yet come to Anxi, so the great shaman did not expect that this stronghold would be used one day.
More than ten years is not a long time, but it is enough to dig a secret passage from the Yahoutang of Jinman County to the outside of Tingzhou City, after all, Tingzhou City is just a small city.
The stronghold in Seki City was raided. The situation is unclear at this time. He was the great shaman of the Persian monastery. Shouldering the hundred-year expectation of the Persian Temple, how precious this life is, where can he put himself in danger, at this time, he naturally has to leave the danger first, and then make plans after figuring out the situation.
When it comes to his current status, he is naturally extremely life-sparing. It doesn't matter if those shamans in the city are dead, he has to live anyway. After all, only by being alive can we continue to carry out the plan. Only then can the sacred flame of the Zoroastrian Temple burn throughout the Tang Dynasty. It was just a minor setback, but he was still confident enough to get things to the point he had hoped.
The stone slabs were carefully covered behind him, the corridor was not narrow, the ventilation was good, and the dim oil lamps were lit on both sides. If you go all the way out from here, you can walk directly out of Tingzhou City. The Great Shaman asked the two eagle slaves to clear the way in front of him, and he followed behind and walked forward quickly.
Jinman County ordered Cai Zhongman to rush out of the county back hall, and immediately a group of officials surrounded him. Now the people in Tingzhou City are shouting and neighing, and the officials don't know what happened. The county magistrate came out, so he naturally needed him to give everyone an idea.
Cai Zhongman looked back. The Great Shaman didn't chase after him.
He converted to Zoroastrianism, but when he was young, he read poetry and books but could not seek fame, so he was disheartened and wanted to find a sustenance, after all, he grew up reading the books of sages, and the way of Confucius and Mencius was preconceived, how could he be really devout to Ahura.
Later, he was able to obtain the position of Jinman County Order, but he relied on the power of the Persian Temple, but he was also subject to the Persian Temple, and he spent more than ten years in the position of the county order. This adventure followed the Persian Temple to do such a big thing, saying that the two of them left the Son of Heaven in Tingzhou, and they also wanted to fight for a great fortune, so that Ma Lan would become the emperor in the future, so that he could be reused and show his ambitions.
Since he was not devout to the fire tree, he naturally had no intention of dying, and when he saw that the great shaman wanted to extinguish his mouth, he naturally ran away.
He had seen the great shaman's kung fu, and now that he found that he was still alive, Cai Zhongman secretly called luck in his heart.
Seeing these officials, Cai Zhong felt a little relieved. He knew that the great shaman wanted to leave Tingzhou through the secret passage, and he should have entered the secret passage at this time, but he didn't want to pay attention to it, the most important thing at the moment was naturally to save his own life.
"What's going on? Why is it so noisy? Cai Zhongman looked at the officials and shouted in a deep voice.
"My lord, it seems that Ma Xiang has returned, some people say that they saw Ma Xiang enter the city, but we don't know what these movements are." A servant said in a loud voice.
"Is Ma Xiang back?" Cai Zhongman's heart was sudden, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he waved his hand and said, "Go and find out and see what's going on." Ma Xiang came back in a panic, go and go! β
The officials thought about it, too, Ma Xiang was the backbone of everyone, and he was panicking when he came back. A group of people ran out of the Jinman County Ya in a chaotic manner, and Cai Zhongman himself also slipped out, but did not follow the direction of the officials, but ran to the back streets and alleys.
Finding a remote corner where no one was around, Cai Zhongman took off his official uniform, grabbed two handfuls of dust and scattered them on his head, and walked quickly towards the outside of the city against the root of the wall.
It's a matter of time before Ma Lan returns. However, it seems that things have been completely different from what was planned.
He was also an extremely intelligent man, and after seeing the two falcons, he made the same judgment as the great shaman. That is the stronghold where the Anxi army is besieging the Persian temple in the city.
Since it was Ma Lan who came back, there is no doubt that what happened in Guan City was done by Ma Lan.
Cai Zhongman's expectation was that when Ma Lan ascended the throne, he would become a loyal minister and show his ambitions, but the plan was not like this, he was not prepared to meet Ma Lan so soon.
He is also a talented person in the Persian Temple, and he has also participated in many of the schemes, and knows what the Persian Temple wants to do, especially after the Great Shaman arrives in Tingzhou this time, he is also deeply trusted by the Great Shaman. According to the plan, it was supposed to be Li Heng, the prince of Chang'an, who ascended the throne and sent troops to recruit Ma Ling's rebellion, Ma Lan had to raise troops to resist, and then the Persian Temple would officially contact Ma Ling, provide various support for Ma Lan, and cooperate with Ma Lan to defeat Li Heng. After Ma Lan ascended the throne, he could appear and receive a reward in the name of a meritorious hero, so as to stand on top of the court.
Now is not the time, definitely not the time, because at this time, the Persian Temple has not yet reached a deal with Ma Lan, how can he go to see Ma Lan at this time.
Ma Lan is a person who will be revenged, and there is no sand in his eyes, now for this person, he is just a guy who designed him in dark red, if he knows that he is an official of the Tang Dynasty, but he is secretly a person from the Persian Temple, he naturally can't tolerate himself, and he is afraid that he will be stabbed in the face when he meets.
Originally, he was going to be a monarch and minister with Ma Lan in the future, but according to the original plan, when Ma Lan's class returned to Tingzhou, the great shaman would inform himself that he would quietly disappear and retire for a while to hide for a while, and then come out to help the world and save the people after the Persian Temple and Ma Lan successfully cooperated.
But now, Ma Lu already knows about the Persian Temple, which shouldn't have happened. According to reason, it should be that the Persian Temple has been in the dark, secretly picking things bigger and bigger, and only came out to cooperate with Ma Lu when the time is right. Why is it now, why does Ma Lu know the Persian temple now!
What it looks like now...... The great shaman was going to kill himself just now, and there was chaos everywhere...... In any case, I have to leave Tingzhou first, and I am afraid that my ambitions will be put on hold for the time being, and I don't know if there will be a chance in the future......
Cai Zhongman walked all the way, and his heart was like a cow's hair. I thought the plan was seamless, but I didn't expect it to be like this. Now that the Great Shaman has not succeeded, it has already turned his face with the Persian Temple. And Ma Lu has already gone to exterminate the stronghold of the Persian Temple, I am afraid that he already knows the existence of the Persian Temple. Li Heng has not yet been proclaimed emperor on the Chang'an side, and this is already in chaos......
Cai Zhongman felt that he was about to collapse, and shook his head vigorously. Calm down, you must be calm at this time! The achievements have come to naught, so let's let ourselves live first.
has been in Tingzhou for so many years, and his wife and concubines are all in the city, but he can't take care of it at this time. Fortunately, his wives and concubines are all daughters of the Han family, and the children are naturally no mongrels......
He walked faster and faster, and his heart became more and more panicked, and the city not far away was full of noise, and the Han Navy sergeants talked loudly, looking extremely excited. The meaning of the obedient words is obviously that Ma Lan is back. For a while, I didn't have a heel under my feet, I tripped over a piece of gravel, fell a lot, and quickly stood up, but I looked even more embarrassed.
As soon as I got out of the alley, I slowly approached the city gate, but I saw that the city gate was also full of soldiers of the Han Navy, blocking the city gate tightly, and the caravans out of the city were blocked at the door, and people were talking about something enthusiastically.
Seeing such a posture, Cai Zhongman knew that it was impossible to get out of the city, so he slowly retracted his body helplessly, wanting to find a safe place to live first. Reaching out to touch it in his arms, there were two pieces of paper, knowing that it was the financial credentials of the Hezhong Group, and he was full of joy for a while.
These two pieces of paper are worth hundreds of dollars, enough to last some time.
Just lowered his head and walked a few steps forward, but he bumped into a person, and the person who came was angry, and he shook it with a slap and shouted: "Get out of the way, don't delay Lao Tzu's errand!" Cai Zhongman was just a weak scholar, he was a little stunned at once, he sat on the ground and wanted to get up, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar face.
The person who came was tall and tall in armor, followed by a team of soldiers, and saw Cai Zhongman stunned for a moment, and laughed again: "Old Cai, what's wrong with you?" Where are you going? I'm looking for you! Our general is back, that matter is your idea for us, let's go to the general with Lao Gao to confess, if you want to kill or chop the general, this is what we said. - Lao Cai, you look like this, it's not fucking instigated to slip away, you can't be so shameless. β
The person who came was none other than Gu Yuanqin, the commander of the Han Navy, one of the masterminds of imprisoning Li Longji, a guy who was not afraid of heaven and earth.
Being caught by Gu Yuanqin like this, Cai Zhongman secretly complained in his heart, and his eyes rolled to think of a way to get out. (To be continued......)
PS: There will be no recommendation for the couple next week, probably the editor has given up, let the puppet cry for a while......
Don't forget the original intention, this is reluctant, ask for votes.
