Chapter Fifty-Six: The Old Monkey's Way of Solving the Problem

After two days of repairs in Ganzhou, Yun Chu was ready to set off, but Ding Dayou couldn't go, Ganzhou is a big city in Longyou Road, and there are Ganzhou people among the soldiers replenished in Shangzhou Zhichong Fuzhong, so he has to stay here for a few days and send out some goods, so as to send the money that the soldiers deserve.

Yun Chu didn't plan to wait, there was an old monkey's Hu Ren merchant team, and he was ready to leave for Chang'an immediately.

The four schools will start after New Year's Day every year, and now it is almost September, and he has to travel 2,500 miles to reach Chang'an, and when he arrives in Chang'an, it will basically be October.

He also has to settle down and deal with the problems left by Fang Zheng, He Yuanshan, Liu Xiong and the other five palms, and the time is very tight.

Just as the caravan was about to leave the city, the accident happened.

A large group of soldiers and bad people stood at the door, checking the people who passed by one by one, and heard that they were chasing the perpetrators of the tragedy in the horseshoe temple.

The Horseshoe Temple tragedy happened half a year ago, is it too late to chase down the culprit at this time?

Yun Chu was dressed in a green shirt, so he leaned up and asked a few words, whether it was a soldier or a bad person, he was very polite to Yun Chu, and after a few words, Yun Chu came back with a stunned face.

Looking at the eyes of the old monkey, he said: "Just yesterday evening, the twenty-one new monks in the Horseshoe Temple were killed again, and I heard that the monk's blood was drained and poured on the stone Buddha, causing the stone Buddha to begin to shed blood and tears." ”

The old monkey also put a piece of licorice in his mouth and whispered, "There are still thirty-six missing." ”

Yun Chu looked at the old monkey for a long time, then turned around, took Naha off the camel's back, and dragged her by hand, not allowing her to run around.

The eyes of the bad guys were fixed on everyone who went out of the city, and they pinched the bodies of passers-by a few times from time to time.

After one of them was pinched, he couldn't help but scream, and a group of bad people pressed that person to the ground, and tore off people's clothes in three or two, and found an abscess the size of a copper coin on his back.

Yun Chu glanced back at the old monkey again, and found that his expression was relaxed, and he was still talking nonsense and laughing with the Hu people around him, and he seemed to be very confident.

The benefits of being an official were finally reflected in this search, no one stepped forward to search Yun Chu and Naha, even Yun Chu's camels, horses and goods were not searched, not only did they not search, but they also helped Yun Chu sort out the camel team and tie the ropes connecting the camels one by one, which was very intimate.

The old monkey was thin and small, and he didn't seem to be a person who could kill people, so he was not searched, and the other Hu people were thoroughly searched, which led to the fact that when they left Ganzhou, they were already on the rise.

Yun Chu originally thought that if he entered the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, he should be safe, and in order to keep a low profile, he even put away his spear and bow and arrows.

After listening to the old monkey's words, he still prepared spears, short spears, bows and arrows, Tang knives and so on, and the relatively comfortable camel did not ride, but rode a jujube red horse.

The Hexi Corridor at the end of August is the best day of the year, not to mention the high sky and clouds, just the lukewarm climate makes people always have a desire to die in Hexi.

Of course, the Hexi here is not talking about Hexi more than 1,300 years later, at this time, Hexi, the Qilian Mountains are lush, the snow-capped mountains are covered with snow, and the glaciers are mixed in the valleys, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a blessed land.

The camel strolled with its head held high, the camel bell tinkling, and some of the Hu people on their backs sang loudly, and some played the simple huqin.

They look optimistic and strong, with hope in their eyes as far as the eye can see.

The buckwheat on the hillside is ripe, and the black grains are hidden among the yellowed foliage, waiting to be harvested.

"This is where people live."

Because the wind blowing in front of him was very soft, it made it easy for the old monkey to think of the great wind and sand in the Western Regions.

"I've heard that Guanzhong is even more prosperous, and I've heard that it's fertile for thousands of miles, and it's been farming for thousands of years, nurturing generations of Tang people.

Yun Chu, you said, there is such a good place, no wonder the Tang people swear to protect her.

If I belong here and look like you, I am willing to protect this God-given land with my life.

The Tang people are so lucky, you are so lucky, no wonder Xuanzang was worshiped by countless people in Tianzhu, and he still traveled thousands of miles to return to the Tang Dynasty.

Yun Chu, you don't understand, in Tianzhu, a master of the Three Tibetan Sects who is well versed in the scriptures, the Vinaya, and the Treatises, he has broken away from the human category, he is the true God of the world, the true Buddha of the world.

People would welcome him with flowers, they would kiss the land he walked on, every sound he made would be thought to be a Buddhist message, and people would interpret his every action, even every action.

Every word he said would be recorded on Baye, and even if he was as powerful as the King of the Ring Sun, he would bow his head when he saw Xuanzang and personally dedicate his crown to him.

Yun Chu, if Chang'an is not good, I will be very disappointed. ”

"I still haven't figured it out, what are you doing killing those monks? What makes me most criticized is not that you killed the monk, but that you didn't kill it cleanly, and you ran thirty-six. ”

The old monkey smiled bitterly and said: "I am undermanned in the territory of the Tang people, this is a helpless thing, when we arrive in Guzang, we will kill some monks in Gantong Temple, will you help me?" ”

Yun Chu said coldly: "You talked about murdering a Tang monk in front of a Tang official, don't you think it's too much?" ”

The old monkey pouted and said, "Do you know why Xuanzang asked the government for help before entering the Jade Gate Pass?" ”

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Where would I know." ”

The old monkey said sadly: "Because my ability is not enough to protect Xuanzang when he arrives in Chang'an, there are too many people who want to kill him." ”

"It's just a monk who asked for some scriptures, why did they kill Xuanzang?"

"The previous Buddhist scriptures are very different from the Buddhist scriptures brought back by Xuanzang, and the differences are so big that they can overturn the previous macro theory.

Xuanzang preached in the Rota Temple, all the sounds were silent, even the birds and beasts were listening, the lotus flowers in the lotus pond opened spontaneously, and the golden fish jumped on the lotus platform......"

Yun Chu saw that the old monkey seemed to be immersed in his own imagination again, anyway, Xuanzang's lecture will definitely be very exciting, this is undoubted, the problem is that the peacock of the lecture opens the screen, the lotus flower blooms spontaneously, and the goldfish jumps on the lotus platform Yun Chu does not believe it.

Therefore, as an official in Datang who has not yet had a specific job, he can watch the old monkey kill people, but he will definitely not help the old monkey kill people.

No matter what those monks did that made the old monkey have to kill, but, my Buddha is merciful, killing is always wrong.

It doesn't seem right these days, as if everyone will kill people as a necessary option to solve their problems.

If you can't solve the problem, just solve the person who raised the problem, which should be a basic operation in Datang.

This is really not very civilized, Yun Chu thinks that it needs to be improved, so that after he makes mistakes in the future, he will not be physically wiped out by others, and looks forward to a comeback.

In real terms, the essence of the struggle is that there is no middle ground to take in the east wind over the west wind, or the west wind over the east wind.

Yun Chu didn't know if the thirty-six monks who had fled knew that the old monkey was their enemy.

asked the old monkey, but he was squatting on the camel and chewing licorice, looking like he was pulling his thoughts for a long time, and he didn't have time to deal with Yun Chu.

The terrain of Guzang City is high, so there is not as much water as Ganzhou, and there is a Wusheling Ridge to block it, so the wet wind can't blow it, and it doesn't look as green as Ganzhou.

Fortunately, there is a river called Shiyang River that flows through here, adding a touch of brightness to the withered yellow earth.

Guzang City looks majestic, mainly because there is a ring of tall city walls, and you can see the familiar bell and drum towers when you look beyond the city walls.

The city defense here is stronger than that of Ganzhou, mainly because there are often Tubo people running down from high places to rob on the side of Wusheling.

Yun Chu was worried about his family's two thousand taels of gold and wanted to enter the city as soon as possible, but the old monkey was unwilling and insisted on camping outside Guzang City.

In fact, it can be figured out that the old monkey is the mastermind and murderer of the recent bloody case in the Horseshoe Temple in Ganzhou, of course he is unwilling to enter a well-guarded city, once it is recognized, he will be unable to fly.

Yun Chu thought about it again and again, and finally felt that his friendship with the old monkey was more important, so he took Naha to stand firmly with the old monkey and set up camp outside the city together.

A golden eagle hovered overhead, and the old monkey raised his arm in a leather case, and the golden eagle gathered its wings and landed gracefully on the old monkey's arm.

Naha wanted the golden eagle, but the old monkey refused to give it, and took a bamboo pipe from the golden eagle's leg, poured a note from the bamboo pipe and read it, and then fed the golden eagle some fresh meat.

When the golden eagle finishes eating the meat, it will once again flap its wings and fly high, and it will instantly become one with nature.

However, when the old monkey saw Yun Chu setting up his tent near the city gate, the soldiers did not drive him away, so he had to sigh deeply.

Yun Chu's behavior made it clear that he was unwilling to be involved in his act of killing monks.

There are few vegetables that the Tang people can eat, and the okra that the Tang people like to eat the most is exactly the one that Yun Chu hates to eat the most, that thing is slimy and has no taste, and it is drawn when you bite it, just like eating snot.

The radish is okay, refreshing and refreshing, and it is very good to take a bite of the spicy and refreshing.

It's a pity that in Ganzhou, Yun Chu has seen the tragic fate of radish in the hands of Tang cooks.

They first chopped the turnips, which Yun Chu supported, and then, he had no way to accept it, because the Tang chef actually put the refreshing radish pieces into the pestle and pounded them to a pulple.

If you take out the water of the mashed radish at this time, and then add meat foam and seasonings, Yun Chu thinks that the radish dumplings or radish pancakes made are also a kind of food.

Unfortunately, they poured the pureed radish into half a bowl of black, fermented sauce......

Yun Chu treated the radish with much warmth, he casually cut it into messy pieces, sprinkled it with fine salt and pickled it, killed the water in the radish, added a little vinegar, put the green onion and garlic, and finally used the sesame oil he brought to heat it and splash it, just listen to the squeak, so that Naha can eat a plate of radish by himself.

The old monkey can eat two plates!

As for the soup cakes made by Yun Chu with mutton and radish leaves, the old monkey can eat a pot.

Tonight's soup cake is made by Yun Chu tearing up the pulled noodles and throwing them into the pot to cook, then pouring the fried onions, radish, and mutton into the pot, and finally sprinkling the finely chopped radish leaves and chopped green onions.

It can be called a full range of color and flavor.

After the old monkey ate two pots, he sadly told Yun Chu that it was not advisable to eat full tonight, and there might be a battle.
