Chapter 637: The Encounter Between the Monk and the Lama
Che Guo said that the topography of the Tang Dynasty is a vague rectangle, so the location of the Butterfly Valley is a little south of the center of the Tang Dynasty.
The location of the Shaolin Temple is in the northeast of the center.
As for the location of the snowy plateau, it is located in the southwest direction.
Shaolin Temple is about 1,000 miles away from Butterfly Valley, and the snowy plateau is 1,7800 miles away from Butterfly Valley, which is not a lot of difference.
A hundred miles away from the north of the Butterfly Valley, there is a town called Qingtang Town, which is named after a pond with a large area on the edge of the town.
On the edge of Qingtang, there is a mountain close to the official road for dozens of miles, called Barren Ridge, although the area is not very large, but the mountain is also relatively steep, on this mountain, there is the largest bandit here, the gold thief.
The gold thieves are dressed in yellow, and sometimes they will wrap their heads in yellow silk, these bandits are numerous, and they defend according to the danger, robbing the merchants, not only Qingtang Town has suffered from their scourge, even the nearby county town has even been captured by these bandits, creating a bloody case that shocked the imperial court.
After Zhao Yuankui ascended the throne, the local prefect once wanted to capture the barren mountains and wipe out the gold thieves and nets, so as to show his face in front of the new emperor.
To say that this gold thief has not been surrounded and suppressed by the government before, but without exception, the government has failed every time, the reason is that in addition to the steep terrain of the barren mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is because there are many masters among the gold thieves.
Every time they were about to capture the barren mountains, those masters would take action, relying on their strong martial arts to either sneak attack the opponent's grain and grass convoy, or sneak attack the opponent's command post.
Ordinary soldiers could not compete with the opponent's master team at all, and each time they were hit by the opponent by seven inches, which led to the failure of the attack and the result of fleeing in embarrassment.
After many defeats, the arrogance of the gold thieves became more and more rampant, and there were more and more rivers and oceans, and the grass thieves took the initiative to join the gold thieves, making the gold thieves stronger and stronger, and the arrogance became more and more arrogant.
Later, the government simply turned a blind eye to the gold theft.
It wasn't until the gold thieves captured the nearby county town that the government panicked and gathered tens of thousands of troops to fight hard for two days to recapture the county seat, and the result was also a heavy loss.
Since then, the gold thieves have also known what cannot be forced, and simply robbed the merchants and villages everywhere, but no longer attacked the city.
Since the gold thieves have reined in, of course, the government will no longer ask for hardships, and the two sides have formed a tacit understanding that as long as the gold thieves do not attack the city, then the government will not pay attention to them, even if someone reports to the official, the government will not send troops for a long time.
Even if the troops were dispatched, the gold thieves would have fled long ago when they got the news, and the government would not pursue them, so the two sides would be safe.
The government's laissez-faire has made gold thieves a local evil.
However, there are also places that gold thieves dare not touch, such as Butterfly Valley hundreds of miles away, which is a forbidden area for gold thieves.
Especially when Dongfang Qing was the leader of the alliance, the golden thief would never approach the point in the direction of Butterfly Valley.
Later, Dongfang Qingzun opened the Butterfly Valley, and the power of the Martial Arts Alliance gradually exhausted, and the golden thieves gradually approached this area, but they did not have the courage to try to attack the Butterfly Valley.
Now Dongfang Qing suddenly announced that she would return to the rivers and lakes and continue to come back as her alliance leader, and inform all the major sects in the world to go to Butterfly Valley on the ninth day of September to participate in the new martial arts alliance leader election.
But they don't want to cause more trouble, there are always those heroes who are willing to fight on the rivers and lakes.
When the heroes first entered the rivers and lakes, they were just like the current college graduates who had just entered the society, always with endless ideals and ambitions, wanting to make contributions and achieve brilliant achievements and be admired by the world. ...,
But the harsh reality often teaches lessons to these young people with low eyes, whether it is today's college students or young people who wanted to become heroes at that time.
If the gold thief is so easy to touch, can he still persevere in the rivers and lakes for many years?
—Generations of future heroes have gone forward and lost their lives on the road to defeat the gold thieves.
At the beginning, the future heroes yearn for a single sword to kill the golden thief's lair, - people fight each other alone, how many masters, and then kill all the enemies, and finally fight with the opponent's leader for three days and three nights, when they are about to be exhausted, make Shengping's best skills, - sword slashing the enemy under the sword, and finally - burn the opponent's nest, and then inscribe on the wall the murderer so-and-so Yunyun.
Such a thing will go down in history and will be remembered for eternity, and thinking about it will make future heroes excited.
But after the future heroes fell without even seeing what the other party's leader looked like, the heroes also learned to be obedient and knew that it was unreliable to fight alone, so they began to go in groups.
Later, with the annihilation of the group again and again, the heroes finally recognized one thing, that is, there is no three, two, three, don't gather Liangshan.
The glorious achievements of the Golden Bandit were spread again and again, and gradually, the enthusiasm of the people to fight the bandits faded, and few people went to the barren mountains.
But the golden thieves are all very smart, knowing that now that Dongfang Qing is back in the rivers and lakes, the martial arts conference will be held, and people from all over the world will come to Butterfly Valley, and it will be difficult to guarantee that there will be a few unsightly heroes who will come to the barren ridge to do chivalrous deeds, so during this time, the golden thieves have died down, and they have honestly stayed on the barren ridge to consolidate their defenses, and they will wait for the end of the martial arts conference before they start to act.
If someone is uncomfortable in the barren mountains, then the golden thief will definitely give the other party a thunderous blow.
But what is the most lacking in the rivers and lakes? The most indispensable thing is the heroes and heroes who are not afraid of death, among which there are fake heroes and real masters.
On the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, the barren mountains finally ushered in chivalrous and righteous people.
And this time, it is, two.
The golden thief guarding the barren mountain cottage was stunned and saw someone going up the mountain from a distance, and immediately warned the cottage, and then the little leader who guarded the mountain gate boarded the gate of the cottage and observed the people coming from afar.
Under the sun, I could faintly see each other's two heads shining, as if they were two monks.
For these monks, the gold thief has no good feelings.
Because these monks not only fight very well, but also keep their mouths full of trembling, they often come to an ideological education class before fighting, which makes people feel upset when they listen to it.
So the little leader immediately ordered the minions guarding the mountain gate to prepare with a strong crossbow, and if the two bald donkeys who did not know whether they were alive or dead dared to approach the mountain gate, they would not say anything, but shoot them into a sieve with arrows.
The minions all prepared their bows and arrows, waiting for the two monks who were still miles away and their heads glowed to approach.
But these two monks were a little weird, because they didn't seem to be coming up the mountain from one direction, and they actually stayed there, refusing to move forward, as if they were communicating something.
"Didn't these two monks get up?"
The gold thieves were puzzled, so they had to wait patiently here at the mountain gate.
......
"Amitabha! This little master is very young, what are you doing here in this barren mountain?"
—A—dressed in red, with a half-exposed shoulder-to-the-shoulder, "No Watermark" - looked at the little monk walking opposite with a curious face.
This lama "no watermark" is Sange from the Tantric Potala Palace.
After leaving the Kalachakra Hall and bidding farewell to the four Kalachakra Venerable teachers, Sanger descended the snowy plateau and headed for the Central Plains.
—On the road, Sange also saw a lot of martial arts people in the Central Plains. ...,
Similar to what he imagined, the level of force in the Central Plains martial arts is not worth mentioning at all in Sange's eyes, not to mention that it can be compared with himself, that is, he has not seen any congenital perfection, and even in the late congenital stage, it is also a rare feather, and he has occasionally seen two, that is, he has just entered the late congenital stage, and there is no strong martial arts to protect himself, and he can't help himself.
Sanger has been staying in the Potala Palace since he had an impression, he has been by the side of the four Venerables, and he has never left, so it can be said that this person is extremely simple.
Although Sanger is in his thirties and his skills are extremely high, his experience in the rivers and lakes is almost zero, and everything he sees is fresh.
And he has never heard of those chivalrous things since he was a child, and he admires the heroes who are only swordsmen and chivalrous heroes, and when he was a child, he fantasized that he had - the world is mountainous, and he will kill the wicked people on the rivers and lakes, and return the people of the world - a bright and prosperous world.
Of course, the number of villains in the snowy plateau is relatively small, and Sanger still has a task in his body, and he has no chance to do chivalrous deeds, so he can only keep this dream for the Central Plains and then realize it.
After all, Sange had just entered the Imperial Realm, and he was quite tired from walking against the wind, and he began to slow down after leaving the snowy plateau, and he had gained a lot of knowledge along the way.
But even so, after coming to the vicinity of Butterfly Valley, the time has not yet reached the ninth day of the ninth month, and there are still a few days before the general election of the alliance leader.
So Sanger began to inquire about the neighborhood and heard about the gold thief.
After hearing that the gold thief was a gang of thieves who did all kinds of evil, Sanger was so excited that he "didn't want to watermark" and didn't mention it.
The Kalachakra Venerables taught themselves not to kill innocents indiscriminately, but they did not need to show mercy to the wicked, they should be taught a lesson, they should be struck, Sange did not dare to do anything to ordinary people, and he did not bother to clean up those who were not able to be attacked, and he did not have much actual combat experience for more than 30 years, and now he finally heard that he could let go of the object of his actions, and he was ecstatic, and without saying a word, he came to the barren mountains, ready to raze these bandits.
But when he came to the barren ridge, he actually found that there was a monk on the opposite side who arrived at about the same time as himself, but in the opposite direction, the two monks met on the mountain road a few miles in front of the cottage.
- On the way, I saw the level of the Central Plains martial arts people, and I felt frightened!
Because the monk on the other side has very good eyebrows and eyes, and he is much younger than himself, but he didn't see his skills!
