1487 Fu Lou Sha
The news that the Guishan army was quietly withdrawing soon reached Zhuge Liang's ears, but he only pretended not to know, and drank tea and chatted with Wang Baoyu every day.
The news was also quickly discovered by Xiangju, and he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but Zhuge Liang just didn't move, Xiangju knew that he had his own intentions, and he didn't dare to point fingers, and the perfect opportunity to eliminate Guishuang was in front of him, but he still regretted missing it.
Xiangju finally realized that if he wanted to develop and grow in the true sense of the word, it was not enough to rely on empty checks for the equality of all beings, but also needed to have strong enough military strength. Of course, the economic base determines the superstructure.
About a week later, the Kushan king Gasserga, his son Vaskar, and the 200,000-strong army of the Kushan all evacuated the royal capital of Fulousha, carrying a large amount of treasure, and fled to the northern mountains. Due to lack of preparation and a hasty escape, countless jewels were scattered along the way, forming a jewelry avenue.
Along this jewel avenue, you can grasp the escape route of the King of Guishan, but Zhuge Liang still did not do so, but led the army into Fulousha. Xiangju sighed secretly, knowing that there was no possibility of fantasy, and he would have to rely on himself in the future.
The city is still in order, trade does not seem to have been affected too much, the people here live in abundance, dress luxuriously, and do not panic in everything.
Zhuge Liang ordered not to disturb the people, and immediately settled in the tall and majestic and magnificent Kushan Palace. The Kushan palace was more ornate than any other palace in the mainland, covered with red Persian carpets, huge stone pillars supporting the vaulted roof, and although the valuable gold and porcelain had been taken away, the use of gold was still ubiquitous, including palace doors, balustrades, windows, tables and chairs, and countless gemstone inlays on the carvings that could be seen everywhere.
It is said that Yiling is luxurious, compared to the palace of the Guishan Palace, Wang Baoyu's living environment is at most a middle noble, and it may be lower, because Wang Baoyu is not rich enough to use gold as an iron block.
Most of the things that could be moved were removed, and the large rare gems were also removed, but even the remaining empty palace was very impressive and artistically valuable.
Zhuge Liang also admired the King of Guishan very much, if the King of Guishan destroyed all of this place, it would be the slightest thing, which shows that the King of Guishan has a heartfelt respect for culture and art.
After resting for a while in the palace, Zhuge Liang and Wang Baoyu and others still went to worship the Shakyamuni pagoda, which is more than 300 meters high, covered with gold sheets outside, under the sunlight, the gold is brilliant, magnificent, as if stepping into the Elysium.
Of course, the King of Kushan did not forget the phalanges of the Buddha enshrined here, and took them all away, although he lost the holy relics, but the crowd of worshippers was still like a tide, and the river was endless.
Walking into the pagoda, the tall statue of Sakyamuni Buddha is all made of pure gold, and the statues of various Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are covered with pure gold, which is also pure gold, and Wang Baoyu and his party are amazed. But it has to be said that under the light of faith, people have less greed in their hearts, and there are not many people who come and go, but they have never lost a single golden statue.
Zhuge Liang stood still in front of the Buddha, looked at the Buddha for a quarter of an hour, tears appeared in his eyes, and he bowed solemnly for the first time, and the futon was wet with tears. Zhuge Liang was still babbling in his mouth, obviously praying for something, he didn't have to think about it at all, it must have something to do with Guoguo.
Wang Baoyu also bowed to the Buddha, praying that he could find the fruit along the way, and at the same time, he also hoped that the Buddha would have compassion for the common people and let him return to his modern home.
Nothing unusual happened, and the Buddha seemed to be accustomed to seeing the hustle and bustle of the common people, and always maintained a compassionate expression and did not say a word. Xiangju and Wukong knocked one hundred and eight heads again, and their heads were red, and that pious heart was also very moving.
After everyone bowed and walked out of the pagoda, Wang Baoyu asked with feeling: "Xiang'er, do you know why the Buddha has been offered by people for generations?" ”
"Buddhism allows people not to be greedy, to gain great freedom, and to achieve great liberation." Sun Shangxiang thought about it, tilted his head and said.
"I don't think that's the case, after the Buddha left, he stopped expressing his attitude, so we can't find fault with him at all." Wang Baoyu said quietly.
"Baoyu, it's disrespectful to say that." Sun Shangxiang hurriedly stopped.
"We worship the Buddha, worship the Buddha, and hope to gain liberation, but the Buddha does not speak, which is telling us that we have to rely on ourselves." Wang Baoyu said.
Wukong nodded humanely, feeling that Wang Baoyu had just said the essence. At this time, Wang Baoyu also had a trace of doubts about Wukong, along the way, he had seen a lot of Buddhist holy places, but Wukong did not insist on staying in any place, it seems that it has not yet reached the place it wants to reach.
But where exactly is this spirit monkey going? Wang Baoyu couldn't figure it out, Wukong couldn't speak, otherwise he would have to ask clearly.
Subsequently, Zhuge Liang led everyone back to the palace to live, and after dinner, Wang Baoyu and Sun Shangxiang stayed in a spacious and comfortable room. The overall space of the room is also too large, and it seems that people are very small, and Wang Baoyu is still a little unaccustomed.
"Baoyu, this palace is even more luxurious than my brother, I want to stay here and not leave." Sun Shangxiang snuggled in Wang Baoyu's arms and said in a coquettish voice.
"Hehe, if you really want to stay, I don't object, I'm going back anyway." Wang Baoyu said with a smile, and also understood what Sun Shangxiang thought in her heart, once she returned to Yiling, she would face the situation of sharing a man with her sisters, and there was no woman who didn't want to dominate her man.
"Hmph, since you're leaving, of course I won't stay here." Sun Shangxiang snorted.
"Xiang'er, because we are busy fighting, we don't have so much time to think about our hometown. When it really calms down, you will find that there is no home anywhere. Wang Baoyu hugged Sun Shangxiang tightly, this face that was the same as a modern lover, so he couldn't get enough of it.
The two of them had a good time in the palace of Guishan, and just fell asleep sweating, but the servant outside the door came to knock on the door, Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but scolded angrily: "But if there is anything, report it tomorrow, otherwise, don't blame and blame." ”
"Prime Minister Zhuge invited King Hanxing to come over, and the little one didn't dare to delay." The servant shouted.
"Xiang'er, you go to sleep first, I'll go see Mr." When Wang Baoyu heard this, he hurriedly got dressed and walked out.
"Hmph, in your heart, no one is as important as the Zhuge family." Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but nag, but she didn't dare to implicate Huang Yueying, it was Wang Baoyu's forbidden area, she was so tired that she still fell asleep.
