Chapter 158 Small love for the country, big love for the world, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world

Xiao Bayi followed Ailuo [Northern Xuanwu] and entered the world of the dragon and phoenix interface reincarnation mirror.

Xiao Bayi, as the [West White Tiger] general, fell into the Xijin Palace of the Zodiac in late autumn, angrily rushed to the crown, listened to all directions, and had the extraordinary power to punish evil and promote good, avoid evil and disasters, pray for abundance and get rich, and tie the knot.

Alone occupies the western Kui, Lou, stomach, Pleiades, Bi, Mi, Shen and seven stars of the Seven Residences, and is one of the overlords of the 28 Residences in the east, west, north and south, the white tiger is majestic and noble, and the power is incomparable.

Many believers in the ancient stars worship and admire, and they will go to the Xiyu temple courtyard of the zodiac star to worship incense, chant scriptures and worship, and admire the living Buddha in general.

On this day, it happened to be the 15th day of August in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Weihe River basin was flooded, hundreds of people were homeless, and many people who fled the famine rushed to the Xiyu Temple.

For a time, the crowd of worshippers and the wave of refugees gathered in turns, all over the mountains, and the ancient roads in the mountains were all depressed and soul-destroying people, flying and urinating, and the miasma was stinking.

The hazy black mist swirls between the mountains and forests, covering the entire Xiyu Temple in the lunar haze, and the war, strife and contradictions that have been suppressed for many years in the Xijin Palace have completely erupted.

The Zodiac Star Imperial Power faction was divided into two factions, one faction advocated the northern crusade against the barbarian land of the Western Regions, and the other faction advocated the natural autonomy of the Xiongnu with the Wei River as the boundary.

The main battle faction took [Western White Tiger] as the general of the god of war, thinking that it was their own way, thinking that they would support the crusade against the barbarians of the Western Regions.

The Lord and the faction thought that the [Western White Tiger] had always regarded great love and benevolence and deep understanding of the great righteousness as its own responsibility, and directly wooed it to support the autonomy of the Western Xiongnu cronies, and regularly worshiped the Zodiac Star Dynasty.

[West White Tiger] is in the chaotic forest hills, can not go up the mountain, can not go down the mountain, facing the situation that it is difficult to ride a tiger, deep in the ravine, nine bends and eighteen bends, quagmire in the long-term crusade and land war entanglement, dilemma, irritability.

"Report, General, another group of thieves who robbed the disaster relief grain and grass convoy have been captured, and more than 20 batches of thirteen people have been captured, how to deal with it?" Huaihua Zhonglang will report back.

The furious [West White Tiger] shouted sharply: "Three days of snatching the food of the Jimin army, are you annoyed? Kill! Kill chickens and set an example for monkeys, and shake the military authority and national law! ”

"No! General! The general Chungmu beside him directly stood up and dissuaded.

"Why?"

"The reason is that there are years of war, drought and flood, the people are not struggling to make a living, fleeing here, just want to find a place to live, there are disasters inside, there are hidden dangers outside, and each of them is dragging their families and taking their families with refugees."

"All the family members are hungry and hungry, and their lives are hanging by a thread, but fortunately, there is a great general, you are doing justice, and you are doing your best to collect the remaining grain and grass in the military depot, and provide disaster relief, which is a benevolent act of great mercy and compassion."

"These grass people are also forced to be helpless, if it weren't for the fact that their families would starve to death, or if they didn't have relatives, they would run out of food, who would openly rob the military for disaster relief for a little food?"

General Zhongwu cried with emotion, because he was also a child born in a poor peasant family, and he met the [Western White Tiger] general and a good man, and he fought all the way to get promoted to this position.

"Don't they know the severity of military regulations? This is military rations! It is clearly marked that the war urgently needs supplies, why do they dare to risk the condemnation of the world? ”

"They are desperate, there is no hope in their hearts, and they can only sacrifice their lives, just for their wives, children, sick and elderly people in exchange for a little food for life, they are helplessly forced to choose to decide."

"General! Are they at fault? Are they doing something wrong? What would you do if you were standing in front of your parents who were about to starve to death, and your own children were facing you, crying and crying for a bowl of porridge to live on? ”

General Zhongwu moved with affection, and persuaded the [West White Tiger] general with reason, pausing for a moment.

In the hall of the four people, there was silence, and Hua Chenyu, a military counselor, stepped forward and bowed to the [West White Tiger] general.

"Please think twice, General!"

"Please think carefully, General!" Huaihua Zhonglang also bowed Li Liang to the courtesy.

[West White Tiger] is immortalized in anger, he knows, this is his angry reincarnation back to this situation, and the problem still has to be solved.

After a while, he said calmly: "Temporarily detain, take care of a meal, send some food, and let it go." ”

"It seems that it is still necessary to advocate that only by rescuing the people from the land of the princes of the Western Regions, living in a stable, stable and harmonious peaceful environment, and farming and sheep herding in a peaceful country, can the country and the people be safe."

At first, he was still hesitating in his mind, and when he was hesitant about whether to make peace or the main war, and when the military industry was extremely poor and the supply of armaments could not be guaranteed, he almost gave up the Civil War crusade.

"Now, there is only war for peace, a strong army to calm the hearts of the people, and strength to settle disputes!"

[West White Tiger] finally understood a truth.

"Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, everything is based on the people's livelihood, which is the way of heaven and the true meaning of the martial god."

Look at the country with small love, and the world with great love!

Good people's hearts, love comes from it!

…

A white dragon horse and nine carriages, galloping quickly to the gate of Xijin Palace, eight exquisite dragon and phoenix flags flying, four elephant holy beasts carved rosewood carriage four pillars, four majestic on all sides.

When he saw a scene, [West White Tiger] moved in his heart, and the royal family sent someone to pull people in person, which was to forcibly order him to stand on the sidelines, and Emperor Huangdao Qingyi waited for his news.

"General, it's been two days, and His Majesty the Emperor can't wait, so I eagerly invite you to enter the palace to meet the Emperor." Eunuch Ah Ji came to receive the order to pick up the [West White Tiger].

"Shall we go now?"

The strange tone of yin and yang made [West White Tiger] very uncomfortable, but His Majesty Huangdao Tsing Yi has always been respectful to him, after all, he is a national marshal and warlord who has fought a hundred battles and made many meritorious achievements, expanding the territory of the Zodiac Empire, making countless military exploits, and leading countless martial arts immortals.

"Let's go, don't hesitate, go and come back quickly!" [West White Tiger] didn't want to waste time, his angry body reincarnation was only one year, and after the good time to cultivate the martial arts and spells of the "Sheepskin Scroll", he would be affected when he entered the secret realm of ancient monuments.

The eunuch told the groom to hurry up and fly towards the Zodiac Palace.

[West White Tiger] followed the eunuch Ah Ji and hurried into the palace.

"Meet my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." As soon as the [West White Tiger] entered the main hall, he hurriedly saluted the Huangdao Emperor as respect.

"Excuse me, Aiqing! Get on your seats, get on your seats. "The old emperor Huangdao is already more than sixty years old, and it is inconvenient to move hobbly, and he personally bent down to give the general a position, but the degree of attention can not be ordinary.

"Two days ago, the front-line war reports were frequent, the disaster situation changed, the domestic and foreign crises were everywhere, the civil and military officials, the four prime ministers on the left and right were constantly in dispute, and they sent a letter to the past, just asking for the opinion they wanted to hear, what do you think?"

Between Huang Dao's words, he glanced at the national teacher beside him, and his jade face was distracted.

"I haven't heard back for a long time, today I specially invite the general to come and talk about it, and I hope that you will benefit all sentient beings, save the country, and waste your scheming, and I want to hear your high opinions, how about it?"

[West White Tiger] has already guessed the emperor's thoughts, the general will fight, the general will fight, the general will make peace, he will be the master, under the dispute of the twenty-eight stars, hurry up and come up with ideas and methods for the best policy.

"Your Majesty, I don't know, what do you mean, Your Majesty?"

Huang Dao was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "The national disaster is at the head, natural disasters and man-made disasters and epidemics are blooming everywhere, and the people have been fighting expeditions for many years, and the farmland has not been harvested in disaster years, and it is difficult to collect taxes and silver, and the treasury is weak, so it is difficult to launch a crusade war again." ”

"In addition, His Royal Highness Prince Huang Baoyu is young and ignorant, and more than a dozen princes are unlearned and unskilled, and they are unable to support the eaves of the sky for a while, and they have more than enough heart but not enough strength." Emperor Huangdao sighed.

"However, this is a dispute in the world in the face of the overall situation of the country, and the safety of the century-old foundation is determined, so it must be treated with caution." Emperor Huangdao stared at the [West White Tiger].

"Great Master, what do you think?" [West White Tiger] probed Vientiane, and the peerless master stretched out his face.

The Vientiane Peerless Master was cunning, did not show his attitude, remained quiet, did not set up a scene, turned his head and asked: "What does the general mean?" I will wait for everything to be ordered by the emperor. ”

Pushed the ball to the [West White Tiger] general again.

After thinking for a moment, the [West White Tiger] bowed down and made a big salute to the Emperor of Huangdao.

"Will, dare to ask for my majesty?"

Emperor Huangdao couldn't figure it out and asked, "What's the matter?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"What day is it?"

"Mid-Autumn Festival, August 15?"

"Can the emperor ask the emperor to visit the Xiyu Temple privately with the last general? The answer lies in the temple. [West White Tiger] said very seriously.

"No! Cannot! Your Majesty the Emperor, don't go to the Xiyu Temple, the chaos of the epidemic victims, it's dangerous! Your Majesty. "Vientiane Peerless Master rarely speaks and refuses.

Emperor Huangdao smiled slightly.

"Good! I agree to come with you and wait for me to change my clothes! ”

"Ah Ji, prepare the horse and change the car, change clothes, and get ready to go out." Emperor Huangdao turned his head and said to the eunuch Aji.

After the four of them changed their civilian clothes, they made Huangdao transform into a member of Bachu, [West White Tiger] played a private school gentleman, Vientiane turned into a businessman, and Ah Ji became a big housekeeper.

The four of them rode forward in the same civilian ordinary single brown carriage, and the horseman played by the Praetorian Guards drove to the Xiyu Temple, and the dry horse whipped and galloped towards the foot of the Xiyu Mountain.

"Woohoo!"

"Let the carriage stop at the bottom of the mountain!"

Xiao Bayi looked like a green-faced scholar teaching a scholar, got out of the carriage, and got out of the car to meet His Majesty Huangdao, and there were two teams of plainclothes and brocade guards everywhere to protect him a hundred meters away.

"Your Majesty, by the way, it should be called Huang Yuanwai, let's stroll through the foothills from here and climb the Xiyu Temple." [West White Tiger] smiled slightly, and soon entered the drama role.

The four of them saw that the people were overcrowded, and the foot of the mountain was full of people who wanted food to escape the famine, and a small number of people came to the Xiyu Temple to worship the gods and Buddhas who recognized the Lord by taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

[Huang Yuanwai] saw a bleak and miserable scene, and he was about to follow the crowd slowly along the curved rocks and walk halfway up the mountain.

"Huang Yuanwai, wait, wait for me, later." [Vientiane Merchant] and [Ah Ji Butler] were surprised to see what [Mr. West] was going to do?

I saw [Mr. West] go to the nearby baked cake shop and steamed bun shop to buy two large bags of dry food, [Huang Yuanwai] smiled.

"Someone with a heart!"

The [Ah Ji Butler], who had never done a job, couldn't take the initiative to pant and carry two big bags, and slowly followed behind [Huang Yuanwai], forming a strange scene of three masters and one servant.

"Poor me! Poor me! Give me something to eat, I haven't eaten in three days. "A black and gray face, dressed in loess rags, wrapped in skinny dry bones less than ten years old.

Seeing this scene, [West White Tiger] took out a steamed bun and a baked cake and handed it to the little boy.

The little boy cried and kowtowed, and shouted directly: "Thank you, you, thank you, adult!" ”

As he spoke, he devoured it in his mouth, which was very pitiful.

At this moment, a group of imps ran over and snatched half of the cake that the little boy stuttered, as well as the steamed buns that the future and ate also rushed away.

When the [Vientiane Merchant] just wanted to step forward to stop it, he was stopped by the [West White Tiger].

"Let them go, they are suffering and starving children!"

Taking this opportunity, [West White Tiger] walked to [Huang Yuanwai] and asked him to go forward, let [Ah Ji Butler] carry the bag of baked cakes, pick up the bag of steamed buns by himself, and follow His Royal Highness the Emperor.

There were too many hungry people, and for a while, countless people came to pupa in sprites, whether it was children, old people or women, all gathered around.

"All line up and get it in order." [West White Tiger] maintained order at the scene.

For example, those who came with crutches, stump arms and legs, wheelchairs, and crawlers, all those who received baked cakes or steamed buns were extremely grateful to the kind and benevolent [Huang Yuanwai].

At this moment, seeing that the dry food was about to be distributed, His Majesty the Emperor was very uncomfortable, and Jinyi Wei Zhonglang secretly rushed to Warsaw, and sent a large cart of steamed buns, and pushed them to [Huang Yuanwai], so that the hungry refugees at the foot of the mountain in front of them could eat a meal of dry food.

The audience cried excitedly, shouting that the gods descended to earth, chanted the Bodhisattva to heaven, and chanted the Buddha's manifestation.

When Huang Yuanwai finished distributing the last steamed bun, he was already in tears, which was moved and sad for the people.

"Emperor! Half of the Western Regions Huns rushed to seek refugees from our country! ”

[West White Tiger] reminded that [Huang Yuanwai] found out that his appearance was indeed different from that of the Han people.

"No wonder, so many people."

"Let's go, continue up the mountain."

Along the way, some people inquired and heard that the Bodhisattva appeared to give alms to steamed buns, and they came to look for them.

[Huang Yuanwai] deeply felt that it was a great responsibility to be the master of a country, and even the face of [Vientiane Shang] began to change subtly.

As I walked, I saw a crowd of people crying and shouting for the little boy.

I saw a ragged orphan with a straw stuck in his head, kneeling in front of a piece of yellow paper, and a straw mat beside him covered his old mother who had died of illness.

"Go, see what's written on it?" [Huang Yuanwai] let [Vientiane Merchant] come forward to watch the end.

"Sell your son to bury your mother, the son of the Long family, ten years old, is willing to find the price of burying your mother and sacrifice your life."

"Huang --- outside, he sold his son to bury his mother, seeking to bury his mother in exchange for sacrificing his life! It's pathetic. His Majesty the Emperor motioned to remain silent.

When the Vientiane merchant squeezed out of the group, he was already reporting truthfully to his master with tears streaming down his face.

[Huang Yuanwai] was just about to pay for it, only to find out that he himself was penniless at all, and he had never been in the habit of bringing money, so he felt how helpless and pitiful the grass people were in the face of natural disasters and plagues.

[Xibaihu] took out a bag of silver taels, put it in front of the child, and told [Ah Ji Butler] to arrange for someone to bury him, and then take the child to Xijin Palace.

[Huang Yuanwai] is full of admiration, worthy of the general, generous, benevolent and compassionate.

The three of them continued to walk forward, and came to an old locust tree, and along the way, they saw countless starving people dying on the side of the road, and saw the ragged crowd of people fleeing from the famine.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the crowd of old locust trees, and there was a dilapidated adobe thatched hut next to it.

"What's going on?" The three of them were very strange, and stepped forward to take a look.

"One meal, two taels of silver, three pieces of gold a night!" On a piece of paper on the ground, crookedly written in unsightly words.

Looking at the demon girl dressed in flowers and branches, with a leaky and frivolous appearance, [West White Tiger] understood that this was a promise to sell her color image in exchange for starving preserved fruits.

"Ridiculous, ridiculous!" [Huang Yuanwai] looked at the messy and lascivious rich children around him, picked up a handful of silver taels, and touched a handful of secrets, which was simply doing evil in broad daylight.

"Give it all to me, catch it!" [Huang Yuanwai] was furious, and [West White Tiger] hurriedly stopped him.

Laughing, he walked up to the flirtatious girl and took out a piece of gold.

"Go home, do some small business, and get out of here!" [West White Tiger] said solemnly, looking at the little girl who was less than twenty.

After the girl glanced at the gold, she bent her legs, knelt down, and said bluntly with tears streaming down her face: "Thank you for the grace of the immortals for their regeneration and life-making!" ”

Papapa, kowtow three times, weep bitterly and get up and leave. A foul and noisy sound laughed at the courtyard in front of the door under the old locust tree.

And at this moment, [Huang Yuanwai] has already shed tears, these are the tears of the mountains and rivers, and the tears of the flowers splashing tears are painful.

[West White Tiger] also thought of her sister who used to depend on each other, is she okay? is also so weak and helpless, in order to survive, in order to live, don't be cheeky, don't be humble, don't be pure, and don't even be shameless.

[West White Tiger] is even more heartbroken.

"Let's go! [Huang Yuanwai]. ”

Looking at the old locust tree and the dilapidated adobe thatched house, he gradually had an epiphany and felt something.

At this time, [Ah Ji Butler] had already handed over the little boy to Jinyi Wei Zhonglang, and after explaining the matter, he hurried back to escort and protect the safety of the emperor's side.

"Let's go, we're going to the Xiyu Temple."

Seeing the refugees surrounded by the mountains and fields, I saw that countless rich families came to worship the Buddha on holidays, and more and more people worshipped.

…

The four of them saw the temple gate full of people, their heads were a little big, and Buddhist rules such as worship, burning incense, giving marriage, sacrifices, blessings, chanting scriptures, and grace points could be seen everywhere, and they were overcrowded everywhere.

[West White Tiger] signaled to follow him, enter the left side of the temple door, lift the left foot to enter, cross the right side of the right door, lift the right foot to the right, every step represents the Buddha, every detail is not about whether you are rich or poor.

"Raise your legs to be in order, and walk to rely on the Buddha's fate." [West White Tiger] explained that the only fear is of breaking the rules of the Buddhist holy land.

Entering the main hall of the temple, [West White Tiger] is fully dressed, no matter how ragged and torn, you must pay attention to your appearance, neat and tidy tiara and politeness.

Looking at the monk who is in the lobby, chanting Buddhist scriptures, his hands are peaceful, burning incense and sitting, calmly Buddha.

After the four people such as [West White Tiger] and [Huang Yuanwai] entered the temple, they joined their chests and stood quietly for a while, silently reciting the Heart Sutra: "The supreme and profound subtle method, millions of calamities have been encountered, I have seen and heard it today, and I am willing to understand the true righteousness of the truth, and the heart is corresponding." ”

[Huang Yuanwai] looked at the incense, he stepped forward to make a wish to return the incense, lit a set of wishing statues, and wished for the peace of the country and the people.

At this moment, the elder mage Dade suddenly entered the main hall, came to [Huang Yuanwai], made a big salute, and recited the Tao.

"My emperor is well! Long live our emperor! ”

[Huang Yuanwai] was startled, how could he recognize it, at this time, everyone in the hall was in turmoil, and they all knew that the emperor had come to the holy land of Buddhism, and they all followed and bowed to [Huang Yuanwai] in front of Dade.

Chanting: "Long live my emperor, long live long live." ”

After being recognized, the elder mage Dade bowed to the [West White Tiger] again.

"The West White Tiger Buddha God came and was pleasantly surprised."

[Huang Yuanwai] was stunned by the words of the elder mage Dade.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, please come to me." Without words, this is the magic power.

The four of them came to the Xiyu Temple together, and countless refugees and countless poor people entered the temple in turn, worshipping the Xijin White Tiger God of War, worshipping the Buddha after burning incense, and blessing the light.

"God of War, come, Buddha's light is golden!" I saw the jade statue of the West Jade Temple, and the golden circle of light appeared.

[West White Tiger] hurriedly took out a jade space ring and dedicated the Buddha to the Grand Master to preside.

"This is a donation from the Zodiac Emperor, please accept it with a smile!" I smiled with the Emperor of Huangdao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Every word and deed of [West White Tiger] was seen by Emperor Huangdao.

More and more people have heard that the emperor entered the temple, the god of war came to the Xiyu temple, the temple of the god of war showed golden light, the news has spread, the city is full of wind and rain, and the mountains are full of worshipping people.

The Zodiac Emperor understood the meaning of the [Western White Tiger].

"Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world, and only by rescuing the difficulties of the people can they be reborn!" Mind to heart.

"Master, we have to leave, there are too many people now, avoid chaos, there is a path out of the mountain." The West White Tiger asked, seeing as people had already begun to rush towards this side.

"My emperor, please come with me."

The archmage and the host took the four of them down the mountain from the palace trail in the secret territory of the back mountain.

After returning to the palace, Emperor Huangdao had already guessed the main battle of the [Western White Tiger], hoping to dominate the territory of the Great Empire with the Xiongnu Land in the Western Regions, and give the people a stable land to live and work in peace and contentment.

"General Xi, my empire's treasury is empty, and I don't have the strength to support the expedition for the time being, so let's do it, the four major legions of the twenty-eight constellations in the east, west, south, north and south are under your own command, and you can prepare the funds yourself."

"The territory, materials and wealth of the Xiongnu are all owned by you, and you will be crowned as the god king of the Western Regions."

"No matter how much territory you fight, it will be used as a reward for your lifelong conquest on the battlefield and the world of the Zodiac Empire." Emperor Huangdao can only do this, this is the best of both worlds.

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Yes, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world! "[West White Tiger] just wants to tell all this.

"I fully support you, what do you do, you are in charge, I let the civil and military officials choose sides for the people! Hahaha! ”

This is, the most enlightened monarch, give you a piece of policy land, and give you a colorful and proud blue sky!

[West White Tiger] can't do it, you have to go to battle to practice the twelve sets of exercises in the "Sheepskin Book", and in the march and battle, you have to experience the eighteen-style dragon clan physical martial arts cultivation method, and integrate it with the eighteen kinds of martial arts and weapons.

Fusion with the Seven Sisters Ang Xingyun Group swordsmanship, invincible and invincible!
