Chapter 469: Dunhuang

The place where Li Hongru escaped was in the Tuhun country.

He reported to the eldest grandson Wuji in advance.

The Jianghu Division is currently delegating the fifth list with the help of many departments, and is laying the Luoyang event, so there are not many additional things.

The eldest grandson Wuji attaches great importance to basic ability, and he wants to see if the Jianghu Division can reach the whole country with some government decrees.

He was also waiting for the effect at this time.

Li Hongru's request for leave is up to Li Hongru to ask for leave.

This guy has made a name for himself, and his face feels like his dead parents, and the eldest grandson Wuji also went out with Li Hongru to relax.

If you don't take the path of the Western Fan Hami Kingdom and other countries to enter the Tuhun Country, the path will be more convenient.

From Chang'an to the northwest, first pass Liangzhou, and then go west for dozens of miles to enter the Tuhun country.

This journey took only ten days.

Li Hongru went out of Liangzhou Chengguan and slowly stepped into the territory of Tuhun.

The state of Tuhun was not exactly the same as the khanate, and was a semi-nomadic country.

The country has its own cities, which are built on the edge of mountains and rivers, and have the technology to grow and develop commerce.

The city opposite to Liangzhou is called 'Zhangye', and the city is built of adobe bricks, which is much smaller than the scale of Liangzhou City.

Although it is close to Datang, this kind of border city does not prohibit Datang merchants from passing, but there will be heavy taxes back and forth.

Before the court's reward for silver was obtained, Li Hongru was charged a head fee of twenty taels of silver by taking advantage of the passage.

"No wonder the price of things from the Western Regions is so high in Datang!"

was complained about by Li Daozong about the harm of reselling, and Li Hongru did not extinguish his interest in this regard.

Now feeling the efforts of the businessmen along the way, Li Hongru feels that the price is high.

It takes money and time for them to travel on horseback, not to mention the caravans that pass slowly with the help of camels and wagons.

Entering Zhangye City, Li Hongru also looked at this foreign city with two eyes.

There was no shortage of Tuhun sergeants in gray robes and white trousers patrolling the streets, and these sergeant mounts did not differ much in appearance from ordinary horses, but when the yellow horse on which Li Hongru was sitting approached, he shuddered, as if he had seen a superior person.

"This is the dragon stallion of the Tuhun country, with the blood of the demon dragon, it is better than ordinary demon horses, and it will be very troublesome when fighting."

Yang Su followed boredly, his paper horse was not afraid of this influence, and casually introduced it to Li Hongru.

He led many troops to fight in the previous dynasty, but at that time, he mainly suppressed the domestic war situation.

However, the Great Sui sent troops to the Tuhun country, and even defeated the Tuhun country once, and when a princess married the other party's khan, the Tuhun country also settled down.

It's just that the world is changing too fast, and the Great Sui, as the suzerain, has died.

Tuhun did not retaliate against the Tang Dynasty like a khanate because of this princess.

However, when the Tuhun State was acting in the Khanate, it did not cooperate with the attack, which made some high-ranking soldiers grit their teeth with hatred.

"That's naturally a combination of foot and horse, two steps with one horse, the infantry kills the horse, and the cavalry cuts the enemy!"

The Great Sui defeated the Dragon Stallion Legion and relied on geographical advantages? also relied on the huge number of people, and under the continuous encirclement and annihilation, the Tuhun Kingdom was defeated and retreated.

Did you hear Li Hongru ask? Yang Su also gave a brief introduction.

"At that time, it was the general Yuan Harmony who defeated the Tuhun Kingdom? Is he strong? But the mouth is not stopped than your Li Daozong, and Yuan Harmony is also dead on his big mouth, he ......"

Yang Su also mentioned the generals who commanded the army.

The former military generals were not inferior to the Tang Dynasty? Even some people's strength surpasses that of the current dynasty.

Yang Su mentioned an old man? He also recalled some things, and the content of his mouth changed.

"Yuan Harmony seems to say that there is an area in Tuhun called Dunhuang, which is the holy place of Buddhism."

"Emperor Wen was once because of the Buddha Mother? Carry out the release of the family? It also went as far as Dunhuang. ”

"Ten thousand Buddha Mountain not only dig caves and build caves to repair Buddha statues? It seems that it is still the place where many Buddhas preached! ”

Is Confucian grammar difficult to practice? What Yang Su learned came in handy.

He has few means at this time? can only rely on Li Hongru to go to the Royal Library to find some books improved by demon law.

But far beyond the Great Sui and the Great Tang Dynasty? There are many different realms of practice.

These people rarely have Confucianism, and they practice whatever ability is strong, and all kinds of meat and vegetables are not taboo.

This has also caused confusion and a lot of competition among many denominations in many kingdoms.

In the Tuhun country, it is undoubtedly the Shi family that has the upper hand.

"There are many sects of the Buddha? There may be something to learn from the demon cultivator. ”

Out of the customs? Yang Su went to Dunhuang to have a look? Find the mind of the place where the Buddhas of the Buddha Buddha preached.

When did he have this interest? and kept urging Li Hongru to go.

"I haven't changed yet, and I'm sneaking into the barracks to spy on the news!"

Li Hongru muttered dissatisfaction.

He didn't come to Tuhun Country to see any Buddhist holy land, he came here to make money.

As long as you find out the military information, secret places, and available connections that meet the requirements of the Ministry of War, you can wait for verification? You will be able to receive the bounty.

At this time, when he had just entered Zhangye City, Li Hongru felt that he should find a place to stay, and then slowly probe the basic information, and then change into a sergeant and blend in.

He recounted his little plan, which suddenly made Yang Su snort.

"You can't even talk nonsense, and you want to transform into it, you really don't know whether to live or die!"

"I can say less and do more to reduce the flaws," Li argued.

"What information can ordinary soldiers have, Liangzhou City can be bought by someone casually" Yang Su said: "Only the real high-level can control the accurate information that the military department needs, and it takes more than ten years of hard work by spies to have a harvest." ”

"I can steal ......"

"Hurry up and let me go!"

Li Hongru also wanted to say that he could become a spy, maybe he could steal a map or a secret or something, and then he was slapped by Yang Su.

A heavy blow came, and Li Hongru began to urge his mount to run.

No preaching is as effective as a slap in the face.

In the face of Yang Su's interest, his plan is not worth mentioning.

Of course, this is also related to Li Hongru's desire to try his luck, after all, he didn't know anything about obtaining the secrets of the Tuhun Kingdom, so he just ran over to look around to see the basic situation.

What did Li Daozong mention about cultivating the holy land of dragon stallions, the situation of the political enemies of the Tianzhu King, the reason why the old king Murong Shiyun was confused, the battle between the prince Tuhun and the prince, and the military strategy topographic map......

As long as there is no overlap of information, many secrets and important matters are worth hundreds to thousands of gold, or even tens of thousands of gold.

But it takes a long time to explore these contents, and Li Hongru came here to try his hand and adapt in advance.

After all, after a while, he will have to go back to Chang'an to see the release list, go to get a jinshi body, and recite the tornado technique to Yang Su, so he doesn't have so much time to toss at all.

"I will refine my tongue in the future, and I will definitely be able to learn to speak muddy!"

Thinking that he didn't have a lot of money to start with, Li Hongru muttered, rode forward, and extinguished his thoughts about wandering around in Zhangye City.

Yang Su had a general impression of the location of Dunhuang City, and the two left Zhangye City and gradually drifted apart.

After only one day of running, the two of them had already seen a mountain like a group of ten thousand Buddhas on the horizon.

There is a small town at the foot of the mountains, and many people have carved their dwellings in the shape of caves and live directly in earthen or stone houses.

This is clearly different from the buildings in Zhangye City and Datang.

"I have taken the number of seven and built seventy-seven Buddha shrines for the Buddha Mother in Ten Thousand Buddha Mountain!"

Yang Su pointed ahead.

The Dunhuang area was once under the control of the Great Sui, but the control was far beyond the control, and it encountered the alternation of dynasties, gradually retreating and drifting away, and finally took Liangzhou as the boundary.

"The Shi family enjoys the incense, the more vigorous the incense, the stronger the effect of the golden body, it seems to defeat one person, but it is aimed at the wish of thousands of believers!"

Yang Su was previously an orthodox Confucian literati faction who hated the Shi family and had a certain understanding of the Shi family.

Li Hongru has encountered many demon monks, from Night Demon Yan, to Hui Cong, and Vinayaka Buddha.

Li Hongru is quite interested in the incorruptible body of the King Kong that the Shi family likes to use, and he is also exploring ways to target it.

"As long as the temple that believes in them is destroyed, it will be difficult to receive the wishes of the believers, and the power of the other party's golden body will be greatly reduced, and the duration will become short, and it is difficult to be invincible."

"They took a shortcut to the idea of taking incense believers, and their strength was easy to come by, and it was easy to go!"

Yang Su didn't think about it and pointed out the flaws in Shi Jiajin's body.

"The cultivation method that is not really bad in the flesh must belong to the Eight or Nine Xuangong, but that kind of anti-heaven exercise is too difficult to practice, and few people have achieved great success throughout the ages!"

Yang Su mentioned a secret realm of the Earth Immortal Realm that he had been to, and there was no lack of emotion in his mouth, and bluntly said that it was the cultivation technique of the real incorruptible body.

Since Li Jing, this is the second time that Li Hongru has heard of Eight or Nine Xuangong.

It is rumored that Yang Su has obtained the inheritance of Guan Jiangkou, and Li Hongru asked a few words casually, which made Yang Su's vigilance suddenly come up.

"Little bastard, don't try to find out my secrets" Yang Su scolded in a low voice, but then he thought of something, so he continued to speak: "If you want to enter the secret realm of the Guan River Estuary, you must first please a dog!" ”

"Pleasing a dog?" Li Hongru doubted.

"As long as you enter that secret realm, the master of the secret realm will give those who occasionally enter the secret realm a chance, you ......"

Li Hongru's memory is extraordinary, and Yang Sugang wanted to make some small investments, but the two immediately saw a piece of golden light on the Wanfo Mountain in the distance.

At this time, the sun is setting, and the red light of dusk shines on the horizon, attracting the light of many caves on Wanfo Mountain to shine out together.

In the light, it seems that there is really the appearance of the Buddha descending.
