Chapter 294: The Jade Seal of the Country

The Cihang Sword Book is one of the four great books of martial arts, and belongs to the same level of broken martial arts as the "Recipe for Eternal Life" and "Heavenly Demon Strategy", of which the thirteenth chapter records a kind of dry meditation that hovers on the edge of death, called "Death Pass".

If those who do not practice the Tao enough, they will practice in vain, and their whole body will burst with essence and blood and die.

What's more, in the original work, "Sanzhenren" Ning Daoqi once borrowed the book "Cihang Sword Codex" and vomited blood in public.

"Hehe, Ning Daoqi is really going back more and more...... first created momentum for the second son of the Li family, and then made an advertisement for Cihang Jingzhai, a dignified grandmaster and master, and became a senior thug in Buddhism! โ€

Flipping through the sword book in his hand, Su Zimo's face was filled with a faint hint of mockery, if the sword book is really so powerful, then why is there only one half-step Qin Mengyao among the descendants of Cihang Jingzhai?

It is not so much that the "Cihang Sword Codex" is too profound, but that the "Dao" contained in it is only suitable for women's cultivation.

As for Ning Dodge......

I have to admit that if the Tang World evaluates the Oscars, a golden man for the best supporting actor will inevitably belong to the other party!

In his opinion, in the Tang world, the power of Buddhism is rising, but the power of Taoism rarely appears, and Ning Daoqi, the title of the first person in Taoism, is indeed a bit unworthy of the name.

is called a Taoist, but he is actually a Taoist!

"This time I demonstrated at the Jingzhai Mountain Gate of Cihang, and I believe that a group of old women who hold grudges will not give up."

Recalling the actions of Cihang Jingzhai and others in the original work, Su Zimo couldn't help but start thinking about the next possible measures that the other party might take, and muttered.

"If I remember correctly, the jade seal that represents the imperial power has already fallen into the hands of Buddhism, and according to the inertia of the original work, most of them should be in the meditation monastery now."

The jade seal of the country is engraved by Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, on the order of the first emperor.

Its square circle is four inches, on the New York hand over five dragons, the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", in order to serve as a token of "imperial power granted by heaven, orthodox and legitimate".

After the Qin Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties took this seal as a symbol, and they were like treasures, and the country's heavy weapons were also obtained, which symbolized their "orders from the sky", and the loss showed that their "qi has been exhausted".

Those who ascend to the throne without this seal are ridiculed as "tabula rasa emperors", which appear to be lacking in confidence and are despised by the world.

On top of the orthodox history, this heirloom jade seal was included in the Sui Palace, and then flowed into the Mobei Turks after Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was killed in Jiangdu.

But in this Tang world, Su Zimo's cheap father Yang Jian, after dominating the world, also sent people to search for this thing, but found nothing.

According to the records in the original book, Shuanglong and Bafeng Han once visited the meditation monastery at night, and by chance, they successfully stole this heirloom jade seal, and attracted its internal energy, so that the bodies of the three of them were reborn.

In other words, the probability that the jade seal of the country now exists in the Jingnian Zen Monastery is at least eighty percent!

"Eighty percent of the time...... It's enough," In the carriage, Su Zimo's eyes were faint, flashing with inexplicable brilliance, and he sneered: "Isn't the Buddhist sect collecting this thing just to throw it out for him to build momentum for the hidden dragon." Forgive them for not dreaming that someone would be able to predict the prophet and know all the plans.

Now it's time to take advantage of the other party's reaction before it can react. As for the evidence, if a widow acts, why should he explain it to others! โ€

The emperor was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and bled for thousands of miles!

Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Buddhism steals the jade seal of the country and harbors evil intentions can cure its great disrespect.

What's more, with the promotion of sweet potatoes, Su Zimo's prestige among the people has been raised to an unimaginable level.

The people take food as the sky, and don't underestimate this little insignificant thing.

If it is not a last resort, why should the people take the risk and do the following crimes?

The imperial examination system, in the past ten years, has also achieved initial results, so that countless children from poor families have come to vote.

With these two measures alone, the Sui Dynasty extended the state for at least a hundred years.

Now that everything is ready, it should naturally be time to attack the Buddha Gate, and as for how the latter will fight back, it is not something he needs to care about......

As soon as he thought of this, Su Zimo immediately made a decision, and said loudly: "Come on, Xuanyu culture and audience!" โ€

โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ

Luoyang.

"Boomโ€”"

Violent tremors shook like a tidal wave.

From a distance, I saw countless cavalry in iron armor rushing out from the city gate, like a black torrent, heading towards an unknown direction, not to mention thousands of people.

After a while, a hill that was not very tall came into view.

"Stop!"

Along with this sound, countless iron horsemen reined in one after another, and their movements were uniform.

But when he saw the bronzed-skinned middle-aged man with a stern face at the head, he said in a deep voice: "At the behest of Your Majesty, surround this place, and don't let go of any living mouth, do you understand?" โ€

"Yes!"

The momentum shook the sky, and a cadre of cavalry moved one after another.

After doing all this, I saw that the middle-aged man walked quickly to the halfway point of the mountain, bowed his knees, and arched his hand: "Chenyu Culture, knock to see Your Majesty." โ€

"Flat."

Looking at the middle-aged man bowing down the steps, Su Zimo couldn't help nodding and said quietly: "This time, it's hard for General Yuwen." โ€

"It's not hard, it's the duty of a minister to serve His Majesty."

Hearing this, Su Zimo also smiled faintly.

For Yu Wenhua and this person, although he is also quite ambitious, but it is also in the original work, in the face of Yang Guang, who has long been addicted to wine and listens to slander, he will move the mind of killing the king.

And now, after Su Zimo's hard work for more than ten years, there is a precedent for killing Fu Cailin.

This General Yuwen looks loyal.

While thinking about it, Su Zimo turned his head, but he set his eyes on the Jingnian Zen Temple not far away, and a trace of light flashed in his eyes.

As the sun sets, the entire Zen temple is reflected in the afterglow of the setting sun, but it is clear at a glance.

The whole temple, there are more than 100 buildings, just like a small city, the main buildings in the courtyard are arranged in order on the central axis facing the temple gate, with the copper hall as the center of the Zen temple, the scale is complete and uniform.

Except for a bronze hall, all the buildings are covered with three-color glazed tiles, and the color is as good as new, but I don't know whether it is because the monks in the temple are diligent in cleaning, or the tiles are so.

In particular, the peacock blue in the three colors is the most dazzling, and you can imagine the brilliant scene under the sun.

Seeing this scene, even Su Zimo couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: "It's really rich!" โ€

Fortunately, there is a precedent of Cihang Jingzhai, and he is not too surprised, but he is thinking in his mind, if these things are exchanged for gold and silver, I don't know how much people's fat and people's ointment will be consumed.

If it is collected from the national treasury, I don't know how much it can be enriched.

Not to mention anything else, in the white stone square alone, in addition to the four stone steps at the entrance, there are five hundred arhats evenly distributed, all of them are cast in gold and bronze, all of them have different expressions and postures, but no matter whether they open their eyes and protrude their foreheads, or hang their eyes and guard inside, they are all lifelike, no different from living people.

In addition to its own material, the craftsmanship of the five hundred arhats cast in gold and bronze is even more rare, and it can only be cast by the top craftsmen.

As for the glazed tiles on the roof and the various decorations along the way, they are even more luxurious and extraordinary.

"Pei Qing, I don't know what you think?"

The words fell, and in the shadows on the side, a middle-aged scribe with gray temples suddenly walked out, it was Shi Zhixuan.

The latter sneered and glanced at the Jingnian Zen Temple, and said quietly: "Your Majesty, the wealth of the Fangjin Buddhism Sect is by no means comparable to any family or gate, and it is even better than the imperial court's income!" โ€

As the "evil king" of the Demon Gate, Shi Zhixuan naturally does not have the slightest good impression of Buddhism, not to mention this opportunity to stumble on Buddhism, which is almost a smear that spares no effort.

In this regard, Su Zimo was naturally happy to see it, nodded and said: "Pei Qing is reasonable, Buddhism does not produce, does not pay tribute, and has a large amount of land, and it is also a cultivation of warrior monks, which is really punishable!" โ€

There is a saying that there are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and there are many Buddhist gates, not to mention the number of 480?

This meditation monastery alone, roughly estimated, there are at least a thousand monks, if you add other temples, such as the Huayan Sect, the Three Treatises Sect, the Tiantai Sect, and the Zen Sect where the four great monks are located, which one does not have a few thousand monks?

This kind of force, gathered together, to form a monk's army, and cooperate with other armies, will surely be able to rampage on the battlefield, as if entering a no-man's land.

Fortunately, at this time, they just caught all these backbones!

"Bell, bellโ€”"

The melodious sound of the bell seemed to come from a distant place, echoing throughout the Zen temple before dissipating for a long time.

When night fell, the last touch of the sunset sprinkled obliquely at the end of the stone steps, as if covering the eight hundred and eight stone steps with a faint golden light.

And under the cover of the surrounding shadows, countless elite soldiers are holding bows and crossbows, waiting for battle.

"Your Majesty."

After a while, Yu Wenhua went back and forth, and arched his hand: "Everything is ready, I don't know if I can act?" โ€

"Do it!"

Immediately decided, Su Zimo smiled coldly, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

At the sound of an order, an elite soldier of thousands of people quickly came to the gate of the temple along the long stone steps, and then the entire temple was also surrounded.

As for those archers, they each found cover, condescendingly, and the crossbow arrows in their hands glowed with a cold and cold light, aiming at the huge square.

This square, as vast as 100 zhang, is made of white stone, surrounded by white stone carved railings.

In the middle of the White Stone Square, there is a bronze statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva, riding on the back of a golden lion, up to two zhang high, and there are three Buddhas such as Medicine Master, Shakya and Mida next to the shrine.

In addition to the lights around the square and inside the shrines, even the chanting hall is dark, making people realize that if they go to the white stone square, they will become the most obvious target, so everyone who comes forward will be noticed.

But now, it is the best cover for the actions of the army.
