Chapter 41: The Calculation of the Great Generous Master
When the living man in black saw the tragic image of his companion, he stood motionless on the ground. At this time, Guangren walked to Liu Xiu's side and picked up this Wu Xinhou from the ground. said: "Your Excellency is Wu Xinhou Liu Xiu? I heard the thief call your name just now. We are all exiled monks, and it can be regarded as providence when we meet Wu Xinhou......"
As he spoke, Guangren bowed to Liu Xiu. Seeing that the two black-clothed assassins were killed and captured, Liu Xiu's heart let go. After wiping the cold sweat on his head, he said: "Thank you Mr. Guangren for the rescue, if it wasn't for Mr. Guangren's timely arrival, Liu Xiu would already be a ghost under the assassin's knife at this time." ”
As soon as Liu Xiu's words came to this, the volcano had already pressed the man in black in front of everyone. After throwing the man in black in front of Hirohito, Volcano said to him, "Who are you?" Whoever instructed you to assassinate Wu Xinhou, speak out, and Master Dafang will spare your life. ”
After Volcano finished speaking, the man in black kept his head down and said nothing. Seeing this, Volcano sneered, and just when he wanted to teach the man in black a lesson, he was stopped by Guangren. Dafang Shi smiled faintly, and then said to the man in black: "You should know who I am, and if you don't say what I want to know, I will know." If you don't talk about your body, your soul will tell me. It's just that if you do that, it will inevitably damage your soul a little. Of course, if you don't mind, I won't mind......"
Before Guangren's words were finished, the face of the man in black had become panicked. After a while, the man in black glanced up at Dafang Shi and said, "Dafang Shi wants to ask, I don't dare not say it......"
This person and the black-clothed man who died just now were all members of the Taishen army under the personal command of the first emperor Liu Xuan, and after Liu Xuan saw that he was not returning to the army and used the mystical magic to resist the enemy, he had to imitate the Tiger Ben army in the period of Emperor Wu to form an army formed by monks.
It's just that the war was chaotic, and the victory or defeat of the Green Forest Army and Wang Mang's new army was unknown, and Liu Xuan couldn't find any great monks, so he recruited more than 30 monks in more than a year. Such a number of people is naturally not suitable for killing enemies on the battlefield, and at the moment, under the advice of the close strategists, Liu Xuan hid these people and went to do some assassination and meticulous work.
The two assassins who made Chang'an City uproar at the beginning were sent by Liu Xuan to disturb the hearts of the soldiers and civilians of Chang'an City before the Green Forest Army attacked the city. It's a pity that he was defeated in the hands of Wu Mian after that. Regarding the matter of Taishenjun, Liu Xuan handled it extremely closely. Even his younger brother Liu Xiu and the person in charge of the Green Forest Army's meticulous work have never heard of whether they will return or not.
It's just that when he was recruiting monks, he was heard by Red Mei Fan Chong. He also learned to form a similar team, but his foundation was thinner, and there were only a dozen or so monks in it. In the previous time when there was a big disturbance in Chang'an City, Fan Chong's subordinates also participated. It's just that the idea of the Red Eyebrow Army is more complicated, in addition to disturbing the capital, there is also the use of looted property as military funds.
At the same time that Liu Xiu received the holy decree, the two men in black also received Liu Xuan's order. ordered the two of them to rob and kill Wu Xinhou and others on the official road, which was the same as Liu Xiu had guessed. The various paths outside the official road have been guarded by Liu Xuan's personal general, and the two of them are guarding the official road to prevent Liu Xiu from escaping from here. Unexpectedly, when he saw that it was about to be done, he was disturbed by the sudden appearance of Guangren.
After listening to what the man in black said, Guangren turned his head and smiled slightly at Liu Xiu, and said, "It seems that what this person said is true, there are also people who have come into contact with the disciples of the Fang Shi Sect a few years ago. Xu Yili begged him to join, if it weren't for the fact that Fang Shi couldn't control the fortunes of the country, maybe among the assassins who came to assassinate Wu Xinhou today, there would be my disciples, so it would be a little embarrassing......"
Although he could hear that Guangren's words were joking, Liu Xiu no longer had the heart to laugh at this time. After he smiled bitterly, he said to Guangren: "Master Dafang said that he laughed, now it is the Son of Heaven who wants to kill me." What if I hide to the ends of the earth? In the end, it is still impossible to escape death. ”
"Wu Xinhou is wrong to say this." After Guangren smiled lightly, he continued: "Now that the world has not been calmed, where is the Son of Heaven? Although Wang Mang's rebellion has fallen, the world is full of heroes. In addition to the Green Forest Army of the First Emperor, Fan Chong and Tongma and other forces with red eyebrows already have the heart to disobey the king. The first emperor just occupied Chang'an and began to entitle the kings and hundreds of officials, and the red-eyed Fan Chong has also privately accepted Liu Penzi, who is also a relic of the imperial family, if Fan Chong supports Liu Penzi as the emperor and fights against the first emperor. So which one is the Son of Heaven between Liu Xuan and Liu Penzi? ”
Liu Xiu was easy to deal with when he was in the Green Forest Army, and he knew that this person was extremely ambitious. Although he now surrenders to Liu Xuan, he takes the first emperor as his order. But sooner or later, one day he will tear his face with Liu Xuan, but there will be a life-and-death battle. It's just that I didn't expect that a monk who had disappeared for more than a hundred years would also know such a secret thing. So it seems that it is not an accident that he was rescued by this generous master today.
It was also inconvenient to speak at the gate of the city, and at that moment, Guangren and the others welcomed Liu Xiu into the city. After entering the city, Liu Xiu found that the people in the city were all in a circle in a daze, and it was not until they entered the city that they returned to normal. Before, Wu Xinhou was still differentiating why there were people killed at the gate of the city, but no people and officers and soldiers guarding the city came out, and it turned out that this was also Guangren's means.
Under the escort of Guangren and others, Liu Xiu met Deng Yu, the general who was picking him up here. Wu Xinhou told what had just happened at the entrance of the city, and Deng Yu was shocked and did not dare to let Liu Xiu stay in the city. Directly took the people of the headquarters to escort Wu Xinhou through the city, Liu Xiu originally wanted to invite Guangren and everyone to go with him. However, he was politely rejected by Dafang Shi: "Fang Shi can't participate in the national movement, and it's better to say it when I don't know who Wu Xinhou is." But now I can't say that I'm stuck in it again, but the green mountains and green waters don't change, and I will see Wu Xinhou again. The things of the world are mysterious, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future......"
This place is too close to Chang'an City, Liu Xiu did not dare to stay deeply, under Deng Yu's repeated urging, Wu Xinhou followed Deng Yu's men and left here in a hurry.
It wasn't until Liu Xiu's men and horses completely disappeared that Guangren smiled slightly, and said to a small wine shop next to him: "Mr. Return, you have been here for so long, it seems that the person who worries about Wu Xinhou is not only Guangren himself." ”
After Guangren finished saying this, a strong man who was drinking in the wine shop suddenly laughed. The man laughed and wiped his hand on his face. Revealing an old face with an orange peel, after laughing again at Guangren and the others, he said after revealing his true body: "Didn't you say that Fang Shi can't control the fortunes of the country?" So what is this? A few years later, after the princes became the Son of Heaven, they pardoned the monks who had saved the car that year. When the time comes, the generous master will still be the generous master, and the Fangshi will still be the Fangshi. There is no change from a hundred years ago, and the generous master has endured for a hundred years in exchange for a Zhongxing of the Fangshi, which is so calculating. ”
"If Mr. Gui gave it to the ancestor back then, how can there be a Fang Shi today?" After listening to the old guy's words, Guangren simply admitted it directly. After smiling slightly, he continued: "Counting Mr. Gui is the initiator of today, after the Fang Shi is prosperous, he naturally can't forget Mr. Gui's kindness." ”
"What you said, I'm a little embarrassed to be so thick-skinned old man." After smiling or not, he didn't care about Guangyi, Guangyi and the others around him, and continued to say to Guangren: "Then what about the Lord of the Heavenly Tower, whose face is all confused?" He's also in the chess game of Dafangshi, and he let you escape last time, what are you going to do with him next time? ”
Referring to the faceless landlord, Hirohito's reaction was slightly hesitant. After a pause, he said again: "Good luck doesn't happen every time, who knows what will happen next time?" ”
