Chapter 766: In the Name of the Buddha
Perhaps it was Cangjia's eyes that calmed Mindu, who turned to me again and asked again, "But, why?" ”
He wanted to ask why Toast, who was beloved by the villagers, did this.
I told Mindu: "For the sake of power, the imperial power is divinely granted, and your toast is the soil emperor here." If everyone knew that his rights came entirely from the lies that perpetuated a few years ago, he would have fallen from the altar and perhaps lost all his rights. ”
Mindu: "But the villagers love him so much, why does he ......?"
I said, "He doesn't want love, he wants control and obedience." Like now, he let these survivors stay here and take away their food, and they can only obey. ”
Sensitivity: "But...... But...... But toast used to be very good, and it was good for everyone. ”
I said, "Well, that's his merit, at least when life is good, he disguises himself as a good person." But now, the man took all the food, and the rest of the people had to wait for death. Mindu, do you think that those people who live in Baoding are more noble than the people here, no, I put it another way, do you think that the lives of those people are more valuable than the lives of these people? ”
I say this because I am worried that Toast's class system has been ingrained in Mindu's mind, and he may just think that Toast's family is more noble than the other clans in the village. But they are Buddhists after all, and all Buddhists should have the same understanding of life.
Provided that their toast did not tamper with the teachings of Buddhism.
Mindu was silent for a while and gave me the answer I wanted: "The Buddha said that all beings are equal. ”
I nodded: "Then what do you think, do you also think that all beings are equal?" ”
Sensitivity was silent for a while, and it took a long time before he nodded.
I patted Mindu's shoulder: "I'm going to bring everyone into the treasure top, but I don't understand your language, you have to help me." ”
Sensitivity asked me, "How can I help?" ”
I said, "Tell those people that Toast has summoned them to the Treasure Summit." ”
Min's eyes widened again: "But Toast didn't gather them, this is a deception." ”
"It's not a deception," I smiled at Mindu, "There is so much food over there in Baoding, and the people here are dying of starvation, if you Tusi also knew the truth that all living beings are equal, he would definitely gather the survivors here." Let's put it this way, if your toast is really the one chosen by the Buddha, he has to let everyone go to the summit. ”
Mindu was indeed very smart, he pondered for a while and asked me, "You mean, let's make this decision for Toast?" ”
I shook my finger: "It's not that we make this decision for him, it's that the Buddha needs him to make such a decision." ”
Mindu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "I understand." ”
I have talked so much and guided Min Du step by step, just to make Min Du understand a truth, that is, in the eyes of the locals, the status of the Buddha is far higher than that of Tusi. We falsely pass on the order of the toast, not to confront the toast, but to act as the agent of the toast in the name of the Buddha.
After all, the villagers are accustomed to obedience, and even if they choose to kill each other, they are not willing to forcibly attack the treasure top. Therefore, it would be very unwise for us to clash with Tusi now, as it might provoke hatred among all the villagers.
There is also a layer of meaning in this way, that is, to use this method to set up the toast, Min is very smart, and he knows the situation here very well, so this must be done by him.
I believe that with his intelligence, he can understand all the meanings of my words, and the reason why I don't say these words too clearly is because I want Sensitivity to think about something for himself, and he has to grow up in a short time.
If we bring down the toast, there must be another person to lead the villagers here, that person is not the old and frail Jidan Great Witch, not the often delirious Cangjia, nor the two leaders who led the villagers to kill each other, that person can only be Mindu. Therefore, he must grow as soon as possible, even if it is to help him grow, but also to make his mind mature.
After a while, Min asked me again, "But can I do it?" ”
The fact that he can say that shows that he fully understands what I mean.
I gave Mindu a firm look: "Now it's not a question of whether you can do it or not, it's that you have to do it." ”
Minuin looked at me and finally nodded.
Actually, I didn't expect Min to reach an agreement with me so quickly, and now he has decided to fight Toast, and a few minutes ago, he was extremely respectful and protective of his Toast. And it was only later that I learned that the reason why his mind changed so quickly was because of the person with whom he was a brother.
Minuto slowly stood up, he took a deep breath and said to me, "I'll do what I have to do, but please don't hurt Toast." ”
I nodded, "I'll try." ”
After that, Min Du said something to Ma Ci, just now Ma Ci was still staring at the fluctuating Min Du, when Min Du just talked to him, he still had doubts on his face, but not long after, Ma Ci's face appeared with irrepressible excitement, he began to dance, hugged Min hard, and smiled at us.
I know that Miniti has told him that Toast is going to gather everyone to the Treasure Peak.
Mintiness pointed in the direction to his right, and Ma Ci spat out a few short bytes in his mouth, and then galloped happily in that direction.
Seeing that Ma Ci had already run out more than ten meters, Mindu turned his head and said to me: "With Ma Ci's ability, it may not be able to stop the villagers from fighting. ”
I raised my chin towards Ma Ci: "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”
Ma Ci ran in a hurry in front, and we people followed behind, I asked Mindu, how old is Ma Ci this year, why do you have a wife and children.
As I had previously speculated, Ma Ci is about the same age and sensitivity, just over fifteen this year. Mindu said that because Ma Ci was Toast's husband, theoretically he couldn't get married, but when he was thirteen years old, because he saved Tusi's life, he got a wife because of Tusi's grace, his wife was a widow in the village, and when her husband died, she was still pregnant with a posthumous child, and she was pregnant and married to Ma Ci, so the child was not born to Ma Ci.
I asked Mindu why Toast's husband couldn't get married, and Mindu didn't explain much, just said that this was a rule left by his ancestors.
Not only can the husband not get married, but the people around Tusi, including Dawu, Touren, and Mindu, can't get married, and even when these people die, they can't have their own tombs, which is also a rule set by their ancestors.
The fast running quickly exhausted Ma Ji's strength, and his speed became slower and slower, and finally we caught up, but Mintiness still let him walk in front, and a few of us followed.
I don't know what Mindu's intention was to let Ma Ji go ahead, but since he did this, he must have a reason.
Gradually, I smelled the smell of blood in the air, and I faintly heard the sounds of fighting and weak screams coming from ahead.
Liu Shangang muttered: "It's so murderous." He then put the sniper rifle behind his back, took out the pistol, and changed the magazine.
When he saw that I had been looking at him, he shook the gun in his hand and said to me, "Empty cartridges." ”
The smell of blood in the air made my heart anxious, and I didn't want to talk more, just nodded.
A few minutes later, I saw a figure in the fog, as soon as Ma Ci saw those shadows, he immediately waved his hands and shouted, I knew that he should want those people to stop, but the figure in the fog was still moving rapidly, and it seemed that Ma Ci's voice was not heard.
Ma Ji looked a little anxious, he ran forward quickly for a distance, and shouted again, but the shadow in the fog still did not stop.
I sensed that something was wrong and immediately asked Minuki, "Why did you let Maji go ahead?" ”
Mindu said: "He has a good relationship with the two leaders, and he should be able to stop the fight, but why didn't those people stop?" ”
Liu Shangang, who was walking behind me, said: "I've already killed the red eye." ”
At this time, Ma Ci had already distanced himself from us, and Liu Shangang and I glanced at each other, and then threw off our steps at the same time and ran towards Ma Ci.
Ma Ji shouted something and ran with all his strength, but he was too weak and slow.
When Liu Shangang and I ran in front of him, Cangjia also followed, he seemed to know what we were going to do, when I rushed behind Ma Ci, Cang Jia patted me, I just paused to look at him, he ran two steps to Ma Ci and picked Ma Ci up.
Originally, I also wanted to control Ma Ji and prevent him from getting injured in the fight between the two factions of villagers.
At this time, Liang Houzai, Xian'er, and Luo Fei also came over, and I said to them: "Try to stop the fight, Xian'er, don't plant nightmares." ”
Xian'er winked at me: "Why? ”
I said, "Sensitivity needs to establish authority in front of these people. ”
When I was done, I said to Luo Fei: "There are many enemies, you and Xian'er cooperate well, you must pay attention to safety." ”
Luo Fei nodded and gave me a confident smile.
The situation was urgent, and I didn't talk nonsense anymore, and quickly rushed to the figure that was flashing in the fog.
The two groups of villagers each had weapons such as burning sticks, shovels, and hoes, and some of them had fallen to the ground, some of them were still fighting, and not far away there was a spring that was flowing vigorously, and it was now stained red with blood, and near the spring lay people covered in blood, which could be corpses or seriously wounded people.
Liu Shangang was right, these villagers had already killed the red eye, and as soon as I rushed into the crowd, someone rushed towards me.
The man's face was covered in blood, and he had a hoe in his hand, and when he saw me, he smashed it.
I dodged the hoe that was coming at me with a jerk, and punched him in the armpit.
When a person kills Red Eye, unless his hands and feet are cut off and his body is pierced, he doesn't feel pain at all, and I can only find his acupuncture points.
The armpit was hit hard, his arm went weak on the spot, his hand was de-forced, and the hoe flew out, and then, I stepped forward and punched him in the jaw, and he twisted his body and fell to the ground with a snort, and suddenly lost consciousness.
Liu Shangang shouted at me from behind: "Why don't you use the Tiangang lock?" ”
"I don't have time to use it." As soon as I answered this, two more people rushed towards me, and I was not polite to them, and I threw them down one by one.
As soon as I put down a few people on my side, more villagers surrounded me, and Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai also started work left and right, each dealing with the crowd rushing towards them.
I noticed that the two groups of villagers relied on strips of cloth wrapped around their arms to distinguish between friend and foe, some of them had white cloths tied around their arms, while the other group had black cloths tied to them, and those of us who had nothing on their arms were attacked indiscriminately by the two groups of villagers.
I roughly counted the number of villagers who still had combat strength at fifty or sixty, and not far from the battle, there was a person standing in the distance, looking this way, and it should be one of the leaders.
While I was observing the fight, two people jumped past Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai and pounced on me, Liu Shangang leaned over and swept one of them down with a low kick, I quickly turned sideways and punched the other in the jaw at the same time, and he fell to the ground with his head up, also unconscious on the spot.
