Danzo Kato, Goemon Ishikawa, and Ahri chased them out of the tunnel with torches, following the obvious traces left by the Mori family when they fled, and then from the direction of the broken trees in the woods where the tunnel was located, it seemed that they had run to a nearby temple.
In fact, even after a previous attack on the Luo family, a large number of temples and shrines were cleaned by the Luo family, but at this time, there are still many temples and shrines in the local area of An Yi Country. Of course, compared to Kyoto, Nara and other places, there are temples and shrines everywhere, and monks and novice priests walk all over the place, and there is a monk priest thrown in the crowd with a brick, and there are a few people who are related to them.
In Aki Province, the temples and shrines are mainly built near the main rivers of the Numata River, the Kose River, and the Ota River, or in the densely populated areas of nearby towns.
And it just so happens that there is indeed such a unique shrine in the vicinity (Warring States Troubled Period. Shrines and temples are not separated. This is especially true in these rural areas. And these temples and shrines are often changed for the taste changes of the local samurai lords).
This temple, Kato Duanzang once visited, he still clearly remembers that in the front yard of this temple called Daizo Shrine, the statue of the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman is based on the appearance of the lord and the lord (this is actually after the Luo family began to rectify the local temple shrine, forcibly asked those who did not participate in the previous anti-Luo family, and took the initiative to surrender to the Luo family and accept the Luo family's qiē law). A statue of a worship god placed in the temple shrine where a large amount of land was handed over from the temple), and the side hall is dedicated to the Guanyin Bodhisattva, and all the people in charge of the temple are a group of monks with bare scoops.
"It seems that those people of the Maori family can only flee to this temple now, what a fool, even if they escape, some people are left in the wooden house and not taken away, doesn't this let us know from the mouths of those who you have left, and if you search carefully, you will naturally find your tunnels, poor fellow. I thought we couldn't find the tunnel, but we left such obvious traces in the process of escaping. "After a hard time in my heart. Kato Danzo then ordered his men to continue the pursuit.
The main gate of the Great Tibetan Shrine was closed at this time, and the people in the entire temple and shrine were in a deep sleep at this time, completely unaware that two teams of people were rushing towards them.
As the presiding monk of the shrine, he was sleeping with two maids in his arms, and the temple shrine he presided over was the only temple shrine near the local area, and there were more than ten monks and novices in it, plus their family servants totaling fifty or sixty people.
In the past, due to the occupation of a large number of fields, and there were a lot of farmers to help the temple farm, so the life of the people in the temple was good, but now after the Luo family took control of the local area, the temple not only had to hand over a large number of fields, leaving only the same number of fields as the number of people in the temple, but also because of the Luo family's somewhat unbelievable preferential laws, so that all the farmers who originally followed the temple ran back to cultivate the fields given to them by the Luo family. The people in the temple were left to fend for themselves.
It is impossible to say that the monks in the temple did not complain about this, but under the coercion of the powerful Luo family, they also had to give in, at least it was much better than the temples and shrines that had been involved in the previous attacks against the Luo family. These temples and shrines were all burned down by the Luo family, including the temple's territory, money and other property were confiscated by the Luo family, and many of the people in those temples and shrines were directly beheaded, and the rest were also moved to other places, or became slaves of the Luo family's road construction, or became the Luo family's lords and settled elsewhere because of their innocence. It was precisely because the nearby temples and shrines were destroyed by such a blow that this place became the only remaining temple shrine in the nearby area.
At this time, the presiding monk was dreaming, in the dream he was eating a large pot of rice, at this moment, the temple gate was "bang, bang, bang......"
The sound of banging on the temple gate made the whole shrine quiet in an instant, and all the sound of sleeping breathing stopped, and then someone began to get out of bed, and even the monk Daizo, who was dreaming, began to put on his clothes under the service of the two maids.
"Bang, bang, bang......" There were several more knocks, and the monk finally got dressed and walked out of the room, and then hurriedly took the two great monks who also arrived in a hurry, which is commonly known as the deputy supervision temple, towards the temple gate.
"Who is it all this night? Is it like this evening, when passers-by ask for accommodation? ”
But when they opened the gate, they did not see passers-by seeking lodging, but rushed in a few fierce men who were like wolves and tigers, and as soon as they entered, they scattered in all directions, and at last a pale samurai lord was helped in.
"What do you want to do?" Monk Dazang is not a samurai master, he does not have the strength to be armed with the spirit of bushido, but he is a monk, or an old monk, in the words of a layman, he has eaten more salt than you have eaten, and the bridge he has crossed is longer than the road he has walked, and he calmed down after a while of panic.
I immediately understood the origin of the gang of fierce gods and evils in front of me, there are no more than three possibilities, the first is to flee. The second is to heal the sick and heal. The third is to heal the sick and flee. This kind of person doesn't accept it, and it doesn't accept it.
If you take it in, I'm afraid it will cause big trouble for the shrine.,Don't you see that the nearby temples and shrines are burned by the Buddha's enemy Kyushu Eagle Luo Shi Zhengliang? If you don't take it in, the gang of murderers in front of you can burn the temple with a fire now, and the most depressing thing is that the Luo family implemented the so-called knife hunting order before, so that the knives and guns and other weapons in his temple were confiscated, and there were only a few bamboo guns left, as well as a few kitchen knives for cutting vegetables and wood knives for chopping wood, so that even if they wanted to resist, they were not the opponents of these guys with weapons in front of them. In this way, it's really going to be burned anyway.
But the Tibetan monk deserves to be the host, and he made a decision all of a sudden, accept it, pass the current level first, and then talk about it, and then count the future matters.
"Master, save me!" The pale samurai lord was the messenger of the Maori family, and he was unlucky enough to fall on the way to escape, spraining his thigh. And there were a lot of wounds from the shrubs and branches on the ground.
This envoy of the Maori family is not a simple person, he is none other than Gui Yuancheng of the Maori family. Previously, he had reached a trade agreement with Wang in Minami Kyushu. I ran to the territory of the Miyoshi family in Shikoku to help the Kuchiwa Tsuryo stationed there communicate with the Miyoshi family, and it was at that time that I learned some of the situation in Tosa Province, and then secretly went to Tosa Country to plan a conspiracy against the Nagamune family.
However, as a matchmaker, after secretly introducing the Ryuzoji Takanobu and Usuki Kensu there to the Miyoshi family, he took the initiative to withdraw from this Miyoshi family's conspiracy against the Tosa Country region, and then, because of the sudden news from home that the governor of the family was sick, he returned to the territory of the Mori family.
Fortunately, the illness of the governor of Maori Yuan was not too severe, but it was difficult to find a good doctor near Maori's house to quickly treat Maori Yuan's illness for a while, so after some discussion in the Maori family, he finally decided to help the Luo family, who controlled many famous doctors in the world.
Of course, since it was to help the Luo family, the Maori family was naturally prepared to be exploited by the Kyushu eagle Luo Zhengliang, and Maori Yuan and Gui Yuancheng really couldn't swallow this breath, so after the two discussed, they were ready to take the opportunity to secretly inquire about the Luo family's information in the process of asking for help from the Luo family.
In order to ensure that it is more secretive and at the same time can obtain more information, under Gui Yuancheng's repeated requests, the family governor Mao Li Yuan finally allowed him to pretend to be an ordinary messenger (due to his long-term travel for the Maori family, Gui Yuancheng is indeed the one who shows the least face among the Maori retainers) to go to Luo's house.
Originally, according to the calculations of Maori Yuan and Gui Yuancheng, under the current need for the Luo family to establish a good reputation in Bigo Province and other places, the Luo family should not refuse the Maori family's request to invite a doctor. Moreover, although the two families had fought against each other before, after all, under the mediation of the imperial court, the two families had reconciled, although the two families were still targeting each other secretly, at least on the surface, they still had to make a harmonious appearance. For these two reasons, the Luo family should have agreed to their request, and even if something happened, it was possible for the Luo family to exchange them for the Maori family through guò transactions.
It's just that Gui Yuancheng regretted that even though he personally asked to meet the Luo family governor who happened to be in the territory of the Luo family in Anyi Kingdom, the Kyushu Eagle Luo Clan Zhengliang, the other party still did not agree to the Maori family's request at the first time.
What made him even more depressed was that the intelligence gathering work that had been carried out very secretly (in fact, the cover action of their previous large-scale mission process was really a bit excessive, so it aroused the suspicion of Zhengliang), but suddenly something went wrong tonight. After the Luo family's army outside the wooden house suddenly came in, even he himself lost an inch, and he only cared about his own escape, and forgot to call all the people to flee together, and the people in the other room were probably all in the hands of the Luo family at this time.
With the arrest of these people, it is estimated that those who stayed in the Maori family's envoy station will be difficult to escape, so not only will the opportunity to seek medical treatment from the Luo family be lost, but even the people who escaped from their own team have since embarked on the fate of being wanted and arrested by the Luo family in the territory, and I don't know if there is still a chance to escape from the Luo family's territory, if these people, including himself, are arrested, then Ma will even fail the last mission to collect intelligence.
It was precisely because he was thinking about these problems along the way that he accidentally fell under a slope in the mountains and forests when he was escaping in the mountains and forests, thus causing a lot of pain. Fortunately, at the prompting of a Maori family who was originally lurking in the local area, he learned that there was a temple shrine here, so he immediately came to help.
After looking at Gui Yuancheng's injuries in the firelight, the Tibetan monk said to a big monk beside him: "This benefactor, your injuries are not very serious, so let's go to the house with my apprentice to rest first, clean it first, and the poor monk will come when he goes to the medicine hall." ”
Gui Yuancheng couldn't get up by himself, so he had to say to a retainer next to him: "Taro, you go and help the mage get medicine." ”
After hearing this, the monk instantly understood that this Taro's storage zài said that he was helping to get medicine, but in fact, it was because the injured samurai in front of him didn't believe in himself very much, so he sent someone to monitor him, for fear that he would betray him, so that the old monk was firm that the other party was the type to heal and flee, this type was often the most troublesome one, and he was bitter, and ordered a few novices to bury the blood stains with sand and soil and sprinkle more water to remove the smell of blood, and he took Taro to the medicine hall.
Just waited for the Tibetan monk to enter the medicine hall, someone outside suddenly shouted his Dharma name, Taro heard this voice, immediately glanced at the Tibetan monk suspiciously, and at the same time "whooped" pulled out the knife and handed it over to the neck of the Tibetan monk, and shouted in a low voice: "Say, what's the matter?" ”
The monk was stunned for a moment, secretly thinking that it was the chasing soldiers who had killed him, cold sweat broke out on his head, and he didn't know how to speak at the moment, but there was a voice outside at this time, "Master, what's wrong, why is the front yard so noisy?" The voice of a man with a rough voice, the voice of some monks behind him was not very clear.
But at this time, the monk finally knew that the person who spoke was one of the three passers-by who came to the temple to spend the night this evening, so the monk immediately pointed to the knife on his neck, and said: "That's the passer-by who came to ask for accommodation this evening, the other party claims to be a member of the Luo family, although I don't know the relationship between you and the Luo family, but if you don't want people to know about you, please listen to me obediently, no one wants to use a knife or a gun, without me, no one can treat your master's injury, If you don't worry, just follow the shadows. "Monk Dazang is not a fool, at this time, he deliberately proposed the identity of the passerby, naturally to divert the attention of the guy in front of him.
Taro was very angry at the ridicule in the old monk's words, but he couldn't help but put down the sword, so he had to glare: "Be careful with your tongue, otherwise there will be no living people in the temple." He put down the sword and followed behind the monk of Dazang, watching quietly, and once he found that something was wrong, he killed this person first, and then destroyed the entire temple.
So under the compromise between the two sides, the Tibetan monk finally took the medicine in the medicine hall and took the tools, although he returned to the front yard with a novice who was waiting outside, and Taro, who came back closely, immediately leaned into Gui Yuancheng's ear and said a few words, Gui Yuancheng heard it, his cloudy eyes flashed in an instant, and he said in his heart: "People from the Luo family? What a chance! ”
