A big gift?

For a while, everyone was stunned by Liu Yuan's words, they didn't understand, why did the general seem to be more interested in that Jisang Temple than in saving people, could it be that this young and promising general was still a devout believer?

If Zhao Fu was here, as soon as he saw Liu Yuan's face, he knew that he definitely didn't have any good intentions, and he must be holding back some bad water again.

"General, a big gift? What do you mean? Guan Yong couldn't help but ask.

Liu Yuan smiled and waved his hand and said, "Keep it secret for the time being, you just wait to see a good show." ”

Although he doesn't like the feeling of being hung up, Liu Yuan's position is the largest and the most powerful, and he wants to sell Guanzi, and everyone can't do it.

Liu Yuan explained a few more words, and then led Shi Shiran out of the jade shop.

After connecting with No. 1, Liu Yuan didn't dare to slack off, and led people to Luosang Temple to inquire about the news as soon as possible.

Now it is rumored that the Tubo capital is rumored to be the practice of Lord Gu Xin, which can make Tubo strong, that is, the people who visit can obtain the blessing and blessing of the gods of the Three Realms, so that there are many people who go to the Luosang Temple to pray for blessings and burn incense, as if to catch the market, many people along the way are interested in discussing this blood sacrifice, Liu Yuan listened to it for a while, and vaguely understood a meaning, that is, the usual sacrifice, mostly with cattle and sheep as sacrifices, and the use of human blood sacrifice, is one of the extremely mysterious and solemn rituals, recently rare, The vast majority of those who go to Lausanne Monastery are Bon, and there is a faint sense of reviving the glory of Bon.

"Songtsen Gampo is really a good means." Liu Yuan sat in the carriage and said with a sneer.

Wei Chi Baoqing asked curiously, "Why did the general say this?" ”

"Bon is a monopoly and threatens the status of the Tibetan royal family, so Tubo Zampu introduced Tianzhu Buddhism, promoted Buddha and suppressed Ben, and now Tubo. Buddhism is in the ascendant and Bon is declining, and in the long run, he will not use his rule, and he will still retain the position of Gu Xin from now on, which also shows that the influence of Bon is still there, and he does not dare to kill it all, so he made this blood sacrifice, and made a big two-way balance, controlling both religions in his hands, and suppressing the one that came out. On the one hand, this move showed his nostalgia for the heroic soldiers who died in battle, aroused the desire of the Tibetan soldiers to fight, and on the other hand, it was also conducive to the unity of Tibet. After all, now that the war with Datang is officially started, there must be no civil strife. Otherwise, give him an internal and external cooperation in Datang. It's just too much to eat. ”

Everyone nodded secretly when they heard this, Guan Yong nodded and agreed: "I heard my father-in-law say that this Songtsen Gampo is a character, who ascended to the throne at the age of thirteen, fought all the way, and not only suppressed the rebellion. The unification of Tibet, and the gradual annexation of Subi, Yangtong and other countries, step by step growth, is really very scheming. ”

Li Er's methods are also good. In the case of absolute impossibility, let him turn the tables and become the emperor, in the Tang Dynasty, where there are many families, he has done a good job as an emperor, and his ability and scheming must not be underestimated, Liu Yuan wanted to say it, but when he thought that it was ancient times, he couldn't comment on the emperor behind his back, so as not to get into trouble, so he kept silent.

"Here we are." Guan Yong whispered, and the carriage slowly stopped, and finally arrived at this famous temple.

Liu Yuan jumped out of the carriage, looked at it, it was not bad, leaning against the cliff, there was a small stream flowing in front, it can be said that it was close to the mountains and rivers, the environment was quiet, there were many trees planted by the temple, and the branches hung a lot of ice shuttles, shining seductively in the sun, looking beautiful, but when Liu Yuan's eyes fell on a platform about one zhang high in front of the temple, his face couldn't help twitching, and his eyes showed an angry light.

If you guess correctly, this altar is used for blood sacrifices, and Nima and Songtsen Gampo are really a matter of weight loss.

"General, let's go." Yu Chi Baoqing took Liu Yuan by the hand and followed everyone to the temple, which can be regarded as inspecting the scene in advance.

Liu Yuan walked in the middle of the crowd, wiped his nose with his hand, and commanded in a low voice: "Baoqing, you are responsible for drawing the map, Guan Yong, pay attention to their defense, how many people there are, the position of the defense and the situation of changing the guard, Brother Wild Wolf to observe where their secret post is located." ”

"Yes"

"Yes"

"Good"

The three of them whispered, and then divided into two groups, each of whom dispersed to observe the terrain.

Liu Yuan had no intention of worshipping, all his thoughts were on saving people, and he walked around in front of him, but he didn't find anything, this is the same as many temples, lighting incense, worshiping the gods he believes in, the same is the same incense, the same pious kneeling and longing eyes, the difference is that the gods worshiped above are different, Liu Yuan is not interested in this, hastily done, but as the No. 1 Cheng Ge said, the front hall did not find the figure of Zanmeng Saimaga, nine times out of ten it is locked in the back hall.

"Stand still, what are you doing?" When Liu Yuan just wanted to enter the back hall, two uniformed Tibetan soldiers suddenly blocked his way.

"That, I'm going to go to the hut, and the two warriors will be accommodating." Liu Yuan covered his crotch and pretended to be anxious.

The soldier on the left flatly refused: "Get out, there is a forbidden area behind, no one can enter, the ban will be killed, if you dare to take a step further, the knife in my hand will not recognize anyone." ”

As he spoke, he raised the scimitar in his hand, looking like he was facing a great enemy, and Liu Yuan had no choice but to smile and retreat.

The guards are really tight, and it seems that the Tubo princess is soft and quiet inside.

Liu Yuan was not disappointed, this time he just came to step on the point, glanced at the door, turned around and left, the harvest was not bad, at least, he could still come here, there was no forced blockade, which gave him great convenience, and the defense was looser than Liu Yuan imagined, and the difficulty of saving people was not very great.

As soon as Liu Yuan walked with his front foot, a shadow walked out of it with his back foot, and when he walked to the door, the two soldiers did not draw their knives, but stood side by side in front of the door, blocking the woman's way, and the head was also lowered.

"Princess, where are you going?"

The person who came was Zanmong Saimaga, she suddenly wanted to take a walk in front of her, but she didn't expect that it was only a few seconds away from passing Liu Yuan.

Zanmong Saimaga said coldly: "Why, this princess goes to the front for a walk, and you have to take care of it?" ”

The soldier was embarrassed and said, "Princess, the little one is only responsible for guarding here, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without the order of Zampu or Master Gusin, please forgive me." ”

"Pap" "Papapa" Zanmong Saima raised his hand and rewarded each of them with two ba, and said coldly: "If you don't get out of the way, I will kick you to death." ”

It's almost angry, just now a little maid dared to point fingers at herself, and now two lowly soldiers dare to block their way, it's simply unforgivable, Zanmong Saimaga is a heroine among women, and she is not a gentle kind of woman, not to mention that the pregnant woman has a big temper, and after speaking, she will teach the two soldiers who are responsible for guarding the door.

"Princess, you can kick us to death, even if you kick us to death, we can't disobey Zampu's orders." When the other soldier had finished speaking, the two of them stood there, ready to be beaten by Zanmun Saimaga.

"You," Zanmong Saimah pointed at them, speechless for a moment.

At this time, the maid walked out and hurriedly whispered: "Princess, they also follow orders, it is useless to embarrass them, don't move the fetus." ”

As soon as she heard the child, Zanmonsamaga immediately became nervous, she bit it, stomped on the porter, and said, "It's cheaper for you," and then turned back to recuperate, and when she saw that the princess was gone, the two soldiers wiped the cold sweat from their heads, and continued to do their duty.

At this time, Liu Yuan, who had already gotten into the carriage, didn't know that he had just missed the opportunity to see Zanmeng Saimaga, so he sat in the carriage and went straight to the rented house to go back.

"Have you written it all?" Liu Yuan asked in a low voice in the carriage.

Everyone nodded slightly, and Yu Chi Baoqing, who was in charge of drawing, was breathing at the brush, making the tip of the pen softer, and then drawing a map on the paper, this kid has a good sense of direction, his brain is very active, and he remembers many places at one time, as if he has a camera in his head, take pictures of things, and then look at them at any time, Liu Yuan once tested him, accompanied him through a street in Chang'an, and asked him to remember the names of those shops, just walked once, he listed them one by one on the paper, and only remembered three of the more than 100 shops, made Liu Yuan stunned, and from then on he looked at him differently and trained him to be an expert in drawing.

Luosang Temple is only ten miles away from the city of Luo, and the carriage will arrive in a while, and just as he is about to return to the reverse house, Liu Yuan suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”

"General, is there something wrong?" Guan Yong looked back with a wary face, for fear that others would follow.

Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "It's okay, buy some gadgets for yourself, you wait here." ”

After speaking, Liu Yuan got out of the carriage and plunged into a grocery store, and the wild wolf and the blood knife also hurriedly followed, not long after, Liu Yuan and the blood knife returned satisfied with two large bags of things, and then ordered to continue the journey, everyone asked what it was, and they laughed silently.

"General, you're finally back, are you okay?" As soon as Liu Yuan and the others returned to the small courtyard behind the house, Zhao Fu immediately greeted him and said happily.

As an old soldier, he had to stay here to take care of the Yangwei army that stayed here.

"Nothing happened, did it?"

"No, these little ones are also tired, and they can't sleep anymore." Zhao Fu said with a smile, as if he remembered something, and immediately said to Liu Yuan: "General, the things you asked Qiu Liu to buy, he has sent someone to send them out, and the small ones have been put in the general's room, but the cinnabar is a rare thing, Qiu Liu said that he spent a lot of effort, and only collected half a catty." ”

"Oh, so fast? Great, tell him that if you can't find it, you don't have to look for it, okay, Ben will have something to do, nothing important, don't bother me. ”

"Yes, General."

Liu Yuan carried the sundries he had just bought, beckoned the wild wolf and the blood knife into the room together, as soon as he entered the room, he smelled a smell of sulfur, and then found a lot of things on the desk, including a large bag of sulfur, and then put down the things in his hand, and his face showed a proud look: sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal are all ready.
