Chapter 588: Swift
It turned out that Sun Quan was in Huaiyin, using An Shigao's momentum as a stepping stone to contact Buddhism. Why did Sun Quan do this? It is to make the Buddhist monks mistakenly think that he is very familiar with An Shigao. In addition, Sun Quan is in Huaiyin, but all Buddhist believers can enjoy tax reductions and exemptions, which is also a show of goodwill by Sun Quan to the entire Buddhism.
On the surface, this is true, but don't forget that what Sun Quan did will be noticed by other people who have a heart while reaching the ears of Buddhist monks. Especially those with a stake. It will be like a nervousness, and the nerves will be deeply stabbed.
Where is Buddhism most prosperous? What's more, Sun Quan has now entered Xuzhou and occupied Huaiyin. Therefore, the one who is most affected, the most nervous, and the most frightened must be Lu Bu undoubtedly!
Sun Quan himself knew that he just wanted to cooperate with Buddhism, and the specific cooperation had not yet been negotiated. But Lu Bu didn't think so, in Lu Bu's opinion, Sun Quan was clearly friendly with Buddhism, and even formed an offensive and defensive alliance with Buddhism.
Rather than waiting for Sun Quan to hit him and be stabbed from behind, it is better to strike first and eliminate these risks and hidden dangers in advance.
As a result, in just a few days, a major purge was carried out in Xiapi City, from the officials to the people, which made people panic and everyone was in danger, after all, in Xiapi City, the number of Buddhist believers is not a small number. Unlike Huaiyin, where everyone is rushing to become a Buddhist believer, no one in Xiapi now dares to admit that he believes in Buddhism. As for the largest temple in Xiapi, Futu Temple, it is the first to bear the brunt, and it was once in danger of being encircled and destroyed!
Buddhism, maybe the heart is pure, and if you tempt them with benefits, they may be indifferent. But when they are beaten in front of them and need to survive and live, they will still fight hard. Even if the older generation sees through life and death, the younger generation of Buddhism led by Zhiqian is still unwilling to give up their lives in vain.
Therefore, Sun Quan, who took the initiative to find him, is actually the savior that Zhi Qian and others have been looking forward to!
"Murder pays for life, and it is a matter of course. But Lu Bu did the opposite thing and arrested people for no reason. Either they were imprisoned or dismissed, and they lost people's hearts. In Xiapi City, many people with lofty ideals are waiting for the general to raise his arms and shout, they can turn against Lu Bu at any time! Zhi Qian said in a deep voice.
"What about the Futu Temple? Is the Futu Temple okay? Sun Quan couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this question, Zhi Qian suddenly looked pained,
"Futu Temple was surrounded by troops sent by Lu Bu, and many of our warrior monks fought hard to resist. In the end, it was the family teacher who couldn't bear to be ruined and took the initiative to be restrained, which saved a bloody storm. Speaking of this, Zhi Qian looked resentful, "Now, the family teacher is trapped in Xiapi City, and his life and death are uncertain. What's even more hateful is that Lu Bu actually slandered and called the family teacher a demon, Lu Bu is trying to destroy the Buddha!! ”
"Master Zhiqian, don't worry, I will rescue Master Zhiliang when I go to Xiapi. Lu Bu is unkind to politics and will be punished! Without further ado, tell me about the situation in Xiapi, and we will speed up at once! Sun Quan said immediately.
"Good! I have a clear understanding of the layout of Lu Bu's army along the way. In addition, there are a few people in Xiapi City who are familiar with my Buddhism, and they may be able to help the general. Zhi Qian replied.
"With the help of Master Zhiqian, why worry about Lu Bu's immortality! Why worry about big things! Sun Quan was overjoyed, "I have decided that in the future, I will build a temple in Jiangdong that is no less than the White Horse Temple in Luoyang." If this battle fails to capture Xiapi, I will help the master to transfer the monks of Futu Temple to Jiangdong New Temple safely, and strive for no one to fall. And if you succeed in capturing Xiapi, then from now on, Futu Temple will be under the protection of our Jiangdong Army. As for the newly built temple in Jiangdong, I will also hand it over to Master Zhiqian to take care of. ”
"By no means, the little monk is still young, but he can't take such a big responsibility!" Zhi Qian hurriedly shook his head.
Sun Quan smiled,
"Master, you also said that this is a great responsibility, and it is related to the spread of Buddhism in Jiangdong. So, it's not a good thing, and it's drudgery. Doesn't the master want to purify all sentient beings and carry forward Buddhism? Sun Quan said with a smile.
"This 。。。。。 The matter can be discussed later. In the Futu Temple, there are too many people who are more proficient in Buddhism than the little monks. Zhi Qian replied.
"Okay. We'll talk about it later. ”
??????
After that, with the help of Zhi Qian, Sun Quan and the others marched all the way, not only without delay, but also made up for the time they had deliberately rubbed before.
Of course, on the way, Sun Quan did not completely relax his vigilance. When he walked to the place where Sun Quan thought he needed to pay attention, he simulated it with the Three Thoughts Fantasy Realm in advance. It's just that others don't know about these things.
Privately,
"How do you see through the situation in Xiapi? Lu Bu's purge of Buddhism, that is, in the past few days, you can't get the news in advance, right? Diao Chan asked Sun Quandao.
"It's very simple, just look at Zhiqian's outfit. In Xuzhou, monks are not uncommon. When a monk needs to deliberately conceal his identity, it is enough to explain the problem. Sun Quan said with a smile, of course, he is definitely an afterthought, but unfortunately no one can say this about him. What Sun Quan left for others was only admiration.
"Lu Bu shouldn't be stupid, right? Knowing the influence of Buddhism in Xiapi, he still went to Buddhism? Didn't he know that this would cause panic in the hearts of the people and lose the hearts of the people? Wu Jing couldn't help but ask.
"First of all, the Lu Bu regime is already in jeopardy, when Xuzhou is no longer his, what is the use of the people's will? Therefore, he needs to consolidate his rule first compared to the people's heart, and as long as he gets through this difficulty, the future will be even more difficult. That's worth it, too. Secondly, as a foreign warlord, Lu Bu's subordinates may have coveted the benefits of Xuzhou for a long time, so he took the opportunity to make trouble on this ground, brought down several local scholars, and replaced his own people. Sun Quan replied, "Lu Bu is not stupid, even if he doesn't understand it himself, his subordinates Chen Gong and others are also proficient." ”
It is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not. Lu Bu has been operating in Xuzhou for a short time, and there are few trustworthy people. Now that Sun Quan has made such a fuss, how can Lu Bu dare to rest assured? But any character who has something to do with Buddhism, Lu Bu will doubt whether the other party will assassinate him. Coupled with the infighting between his subordinates and the confrontation between political enemies, Sun Quan couldn't imagine what kind of chaos had become in Xiapi now.
However, the more chaotic the Xiapi, the better. The more chaotic it is, the greater Sun Quan's chances.
On this day, after another rapid march, the Jiangdong Army led by Sun Quan finally crossed the Yishui smoothly and went down to Picheng, without the slightest hindrance!
Due to the continuous travel, Sun Quan did not immediately attack the city, but chose to be stationed on the spot. First, it is to let the soldiers rest and recuperate, and secondly, Sun Quan himself also has to adjust his skills and calculate the time, because at the beginning of the month, it is coming again. If possible, Sun Quan naturally hopes to kill Lu Bu directly in the card game!
