Chapter 138: Escorting the caravan
The early morning day is quite refreshing, even in the hot summer, the cool breeze blows, which is always refreshing.
On a rugged dirt road, you can already see some caravans hurrying away, taking advantage of the cool breeze of the early morning, to find an inn where they can rest, at least at noon.
Otherwise, when the heat is unbearable at noon, the carriage will have to rest in the woods.
As for rushing at noon, that's what only fools do.
"Commander, let's go like this, when will we get to Kaiping."
The fat pig lay on the box behind the carriage, looking down at Zhao Ke, the hot weather made him uncomfortable.
Especially when it's almost noon.
When the time comes, it will be extremely tormenting for his zombie body.
At this time, the only thing that the fat pig thought of was the comfortable aura in the Great Xia Ding, and the special fragrance that permeated the air.
If you're serving a glass of chilled wine, it's the best thing to do.
Zhao Ke glanced at the fat pig, knew the fat pig's thoughts, shook his head and said: "Mazi can't come out yet, this guy is our secret method, as for Camille, forget it, now it's not her turn to appear, don't mention the bantam, you can't let me be a head of the regiment to be a coachman for you." β
The fat pig lay on the box with a sad face and a desperate face.
At the same time, I summoned the stamp album and looked at the main quest and background space this time.
It is different from the previous horror space, which required hazy guessing and judgment.
This time, the background of the space was directly explained.
Spatial background: the 8th year of Yuan Xianzong (1258 AD)
MΓΆngke Khan once again ordered Kublai Khan to seriously hold an unprecedented debate on Buddhism and Taoism in the Da'an Pavilion of Kaiping Prefecture.
Many sects are already rushing to Kaiping Province (in the territory of the Blue Banner of the Xilin Gol League of the Mongolian Autonomous Region)
It is not so much to participate in this academic discussion as it is to loot the division of Taoism.
The Taoist family, which is already weak, is the elite of the Quanzhen Dao.
But only in the Quanzhen Sect......
[Main Quest 1: Participate in the Kaiping Buddhism Debate Conference]
[Join one side of the Dharma Debate Conference, or be the strength of one side of the Party alone, and win a victory in the Buddha Debate Tournament. γ
The main quest this time is not too difficult, especially for Zhao Ke.
"Hehe, boss, you can join Shaolin Zen Buddhism, anyway, you can be regarded as a Buddhist monk."
The fat pig lowered his head and teased at Zhao Ke.
This statement is true.
Zhao Ke practiced the authentic White Horse Temple's White Bone Concept, and obtained the inheritance of Tibetan Buddhism in the Buddha beads.
Plus in the mysterious place, inherited stupas.
Although his own Buddhist supernatural powers are not much, they are enough to rely on these Buddhist supernatural powers to rank among the top monks.
As long as Zhao Ke joins a Buddhist sect, it is enough to easily occupy enough benefits from this robbery of Taoism.
"The candidate of the Constant is said to be a master of the sacred department, do you think we can take advantage of joining the Buddhism side?"
Zhao Ke squinted and glanced at the fat pig.
The fat pig shook his head with a bitter face.
Zhao Ke's original Dharma was only half-baked, and compared with that kind of profession, it was not half a star.
"If you don't join the Buddha Sect, do you still want to join the Dao Sect?"
After the fat pig finished speaking, he suddenly covered his stinky mouth, looked at it, and saw Zhao Ke's thoughtful expression, and couldn't help screaming: "Leader, don't be crazy, if you join the Dao Sect, we will die." β
Whether it's history, or the backdrop of this horror space.
The outcome of the Great Debate on Buddhism and Taoism could not be clearer.
The Quanzhen Sect was almost completely wiped out, countless classics were burned, countless Taoist properties were returned, and a large number of disciples were cut off and turned into monks.
It's like the interception of the religion in the god list.
It was divided up by the major sects like jackals, and all that was left was a pile of bones.
In this case, joining the Taoist sect is simply asking for your own death.
"You're thinking too much!" Seeing the nervous appearance of the fat pig, Zhao Ke shook his head and comforted him.
In fact, Zhao Ke thought about joining the Taoist Sect.
Although the Dao Sect is against the trend, it is also the defender.
In an environment where wolves have more meat and less meat.
Change direction and become meat in the eyes of the wolf, and the opportunities will become a little more.
It's just this idea, Zhao Ke just thought about it and temporarily rejected it.
Without it.
If you fight alone, you will definitely lose.
Although on the surface, it is a great debate on Buddhism and Taoism, but it is more accurate to say that it is a great debate on the Quanzhen Religion.
An elite 200 people of the Quanzhen Sect headed by Zhang Zhijing.
What we have to face is the siege of the mainstream and non-mainstream sects of the whole world.
If Qiu Chuji was still alive, Zhao Ke would definitely join the Dao Sect.
But Zhang Zhijing ......
This person is the head of the Quanzhen Sect today, and he is counted as a disciple of three generations.
But its name is not obvious, and its strength is still unknown.
The key question is that if Zhang Zhijing is a person who understands, he should know what the nature of this great debate on Buddhism and Taoism is.
But he still resolutely rushed forward with the elite of the Quanzhen Sect, which was like hitting a stone with an egg.
You know, even in the Yuan Dynasty.
The power of Taoism is still amazing.
Not to mention the Quanzhen Sect, which was designated by the ancestor Genghis Khan as the head of the world's Xuanmen.
There is also Longhu Mountain, which has a deep foundation and dominates the Zhengyi Alliance, and Zhengyi controls the entire Sichuan Bashu Taoist sect.
The great true religion of the prosperous gate of the coastal area of Fujian.
The Central Plains Dazong Taiyi has a strong ability to influence the entire Central Plains Henan.
Jiangxi Jingming Dao, the Fu Gong faction with Xu Xian (Xu Xun) as the ancestor, can be described as the dominant force in Jiangxi.
If Zhang Zhijing can get the support of the above-mentioned Four Great Dao Sects, even if there are only one or two of them, this Buddhist debate will not end in a fiasco.
In the final analysis, Zhang Zhijing refused to bow his head, after all, Qiu Chuji's aura was too powerful.
Even if Zhang Zhijing is subordinate, Li Zhichang, who had already lost the last Buddhist debate, took over the Quanzhen Sect.
But at the head of the Xuanmen, this aura still hangs over his head like a bright moon.
Stop killing with a word, and become famous in the world.
The ancestor Genghis Khan also had to pay tribute to three points, and was enshrined as the true bishop of Changchun.
The aura of glory brought to the Quanzhen Sect is so great.
Zhao Ke remembered that when he followed the old man to Beijing, there were still people there who had passed the ninth eunuch (the nineteenth day of the first month).
It is a festival set on the birthday of the mound.
It is conceivable that such a large aura is shrouded.
Whether it is the previous head Li Zhichang or the contemporary head Zhang Zhijing.
It was difficult to lower their arrogant heads and invite the other Four Great Dao Sects to participate.
Therefore, if this status quo is not changed, Zhao Ke does not plan to join the Taoist Sect.
His goal is very clear, that is, the Heavenly Pole Four Elephant Beads of the Quanzhen Sect.
"That's good."
The fat pig patted his chest, he was afraid that Zhao Ke would die, as long as Zhao Ke did not join the Taoist Sect, with Daxia Ding, Zhao Ke had space to take a detour.
Just as the two of them were talking.
The convoy in front of it gradually came to a halt.
I saw a middle-aged man riding a horse in front of the convoy.
Throw the water bag on his waist to Zhao Ke.
Xiang Zhao Ke and the fat pig smiled and smiled: "Two brothers, the weather is very hot, there is a stream in front of us, let's rest here first and then go on the road." β
This middle-aged man has a beard on his face, his name is Chen Pan, and he speaks very arrogantly.
He was the head of the guard in this caravan.
But don't underestimate that he's just a guard.
After Zhao Ke and the others entered this space, they saw Chen Pan's strength with their own eyes.
In the face of the siege of more than a dozen mountain bandits, Chen Pan was almost at ease, with a little finger, the finger force penetrated the blade, and easily smashed the head of the mountain bandit leader with one finger.
Zhao Ke assessed it in his heart.
In terms of Chen Pan's strength, at least he is also a low-level postman.
Even if he had only experienced two or three low-level postmen in the terrifying space, he was far from being Chen Pan's opponent.
Such a master is just the head of the guard of this caravan.
It is conceivable that the standard of force in this space is far higher than everyone imagined.
It was also at that time that Zhao Ke and the others intervened to help Chen Pan's caravan and kill the other mountain bandits.
It was this that led them to a side quest.
Side Quest: Escort the caravan
[Requirements: Escort this caravan to Yancheng, and the loss of the caravan shall not exceed a quarter. γ
I didn't expect to get a side quest just after entering this space.
Zhao Ke, of course, they will not refuse.
Moreover, Zhao Ke asked that if you want to go to Kaiping Mansion, the capital of Yuan, Yancheng is the only way to go.
This is also the reason why Zhao Ke and the fat pig will ride on this caravan carriage.
"Very good, very good, I'm dying of heat."
Before Zhao Ke could speak, the fat pig had already jumped off the carriage impatiently, and rushed into the woods in three or two steps.
Just listening to the sound of 'coo', this guy has already jumped into the stream to cool off.
Zhao Ke took a sip of the water in the water bag, feeling not very good, with a thick leather smell.
Returning the water bag to Chen Pan, he smiled at Chen Pan and asked, "I don't know how far away it is from Yancheng!" β
After Chen Pan looked at the surrounding mountains for a while, he pointed to the mountain behind him with a horsewhip in his hand: "There is Heifeng Ridge, after Heifeng Ridge, there is half a day's journey, you can reach Yancheng, just ......"
"Just what?"
Zhao Ke saw Chen Pan frowning and was silent, and couldn't help asking.
Chen Pan looked left and right with his eyes, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, he jumped off the horse, took Zhao Ke's arm and walked to the side to the shade, and said with a mysterious face: "It's just that I heard that this Black Wind Ridge is a goblin!" β
