Chapter 104: The Zhao Family
Chapter 104 The Zhao Family
"Venerable Lord, according to your instructions, I have examined the cave lords of the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands one by one, and it has indeed been found that Boss Wu and others have secretly united with the rest of the cave lords in a vain attempt to overthrow the rule of the Vulture Palace."
Listening to the reports of the Nine Heavens and Nine Sects disciples of the Vulture Palace below, a trace of coldness flashed on Wu Xingyun's face.
"Pass my order, Boss Wu and other evildoers, and leave no one alive...... The remaining cave lords and island masters, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, each of them will be rewarded with a heart piercing bone nail, and notify the disciples of the Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions that it will be executed on the same day! ”
"Yes, Lord!"
Hearing this, the visitor bowed silently, turned around and left the Vulture Palace.
For this scene, Ye Chen was not surprised at all.
The Vulture Palace has been in charge of the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands for many years, so they naturally have a set of control methods, and the reason why Boss Wu and the others made such a big move in the original book is that in addition to just in time for the day of rejuvenation of Tianshan Tong's grandmother once in thirty years, Murong Fu, as well as the intervention of Zhuo Bufan, Unjust Daoren and others.
And now, Murong Fu is dead.
As for Zhuo Bufan and the others, they don't know where to go, and with the strength of Boss Wu and these people, they can't set off any storms at all.
The slightest sign of it is nipped in the bud.
"Boy, what you entrusted me with is almost done."
Seeing that Ye Chen on the side was silent, Tianshan Tong's grandmother raised her eyebrows, and a trace of curiosity appeared in her eyes: "Previously, you asked me to train that little girl as the next master of the Vulture Palace, this request is reasonable, but I don't understand, why did you ask me to send people to spread rumors about the Shaolin Temple on the rivers and lakes?" ”
"Because, my surname is Zhao."
Naturally, there is no stalk of the Zhao family in this world, but Ye Chen's identity is also obvious.
"Grandma Tong doesn't think that as the largest faction in the world, Shaolin has rarely been active in the martial arts over the years, compared to the beggars who took the initiative to devote themselves to the Song Liao battlefield, the Shaolin faction seems to be deliberately reducing its sense of existence."
"Humph!"
When Tianshan Tong's grandmother heard this, she also showed a little contempt, and sneered: "After all, it is a centuries-old inheritance, and it is reasonable to want to protect yourself at such a time......
"But that's not a reason for you to take action on it, is it?"
"Not bad."
Ye Chen nodded: "If it is Mingzhe to protect himself, it is still human nature, but what if the Shaolin faction has already colluded with the Liao?" ”
"What?"
At this moment, Tianshan Tong's grandmother showed a shocked face.
The Shaolin faction has lasted for hundreds of years, and has undergone several dynastic changes, but it has always stood at the top of the rivers and lakes, which shows that its heritage is profound, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary small sects.
If such a behemoth colludes with the Liao State, the consequences are simply unpredictable.
"Is that true?"
"It's just speculation, and I can't find tangible evidence to prove it."
Seeing that there seemed to be doubts on Tianshan Tong's face, Ye Chen also told Tianshan Tong's grandmother about the beginning and end of the battle of Yanmen Pass, as well as Qiao Feng's life experience, combined with some of the content in the original book.
"What do you mean?"
"Xuan Ci, or the Shaolin faction, in this matter, was really just used as a gunman by Murong Bo, and became the fuse that provoked the war between the two countries?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Ye Chen said unceremoniously: "Do they really think that relying on the seventy-two stunts that the senior monks of the past generations have not been able to practice in the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion can really enhance the combat effectiveness of the Great Liao army?" This kind of simple truth, if he really can't understand it, he is not qualified to sit on the position of Shaolin abbot! ”
This suspicion, in fact, Ye Chen also discussed it with Zhao Ji in private, and the two came to the conclusion that the reason why Xuan Ci did this was mostly to make a plan.
After all, the national strength of Da Liao is slightly better than that of Da Song.
Once the two sides are in a full-scale war, the first to suffer must be the Great Song Dynasty!
Therefore, the tragedy of Xiao Yuanshan's family is not so much caused by Murong Bo, a careerist, but rather the result of the high-level leaders of the Liao State and some of the Shaolin faction!
Other than that......
Looking at Qiao Feng's life experience, it is also full of many doubts.
Those who are familiar with the plot know that Qiao Feng was given to Shaomu Mountain by Xuan Ci, adopted by a peasant couple, and then Xuan Ci's younger brother, Master Xuan Ku personally taught his martial arts.
As a master of the Xuanzi generation, could it be that Xuanku is really so idle that he would accept an ordinary peasant child as an apprentice?
And when Qiao Feng grows up, it stands to reason that he should also be a Shaolin disciple.
But he joined the beggar gang, which was among the most involved in the Song Liao battlefield, and became the leader of the beggar gang!
It can be seen from this that what kind of intentions the Shaolin faction has!
Once Qiao Feng's life experience is revealed, the beggar gang will be leaderless, and it will inevitably suffer a huge blow......
In the original book, the beggar gang gathered in the apricot forest and revealed Qiao Feng's life experience, but they were attacked by the Xixia Yipintang, if it weren't for Ah Zhu's eagerness, he and Duan Yu turned into Qiao Feng and Murong Fu, and deceived Helian Tieshu and others, I am afraid that the high-level beggars will be wiped out in the battle of the apricot forest!
In this way, I am afraid that the huge beggar gang will also be torn apart and will no longer be the number one gang in the world!
It can be said that the Shaolin faction, with its layout thirty years ago, has already included the beggar gang.
"Having said that, why did Shaolin do this......
Hearing Ye Chen's analysis, Tianshan Tong's grandmother also said that it was difficult to accept.
She has always been a Han person, and she doesn't want to believe that someone is willing to collude with the Liao people, and she is such a behemoth as Shaolin.
"Because Buddhism has not been valued by the imperial court......"
Ye Chen said quietly.
There was the Song Dynasty, and it was almost the peak of Daomen's luck!
Not only did the royal family of the Song Dynasty recognize Zhao Gongming as their ancestor, but even the emperor himself also respected Taoism very much......
Among them, Zhao Ji, the Daojun Emperor, is the most, and he is simply obsessed!
Moreover, all kinds of Taoist masters are also endless, Chen Tuan Laozu, Shao Yong, Chen Jingyuan, Wang Wenqing, Shi Tai, Zhang Boduan, Bai Yuchan, ......
There is also a rather controversial Lin Lingsu!
Not to mention how much true skill this person has, just that clever mouth that can speak well has made him embark on the road of a god stick that brings disaster to the country and the people.
Relying only on his lip service, Lin Lingsu fooled Ye Chen's cheap father Huizong, believing that he was the reincarnation of Emperor Qinghua, and changed his name to Emperor Daojun with great interest, and also called Cai Jing as Zuo Yuan Xianbo, Wang Hao as Wenhua officials, Sheng Zhang and Wang Ge as Yuanyuan Baohua officials, Zheng Juzhong, Tong Guan and many powerful ministers and eunuchs were all immortals.
When the concubine Liu was favored, she was regarded as the concubine of Jiuhua Yuzhen.
