Chapter 252: The murderer once said that he would kill all the corrupt officials in the city
Whether the person was killed by Fahai or not, only he knows best.
And Fahai can be sure that this is the first time he has come to this place, but this happened, and there seem to be eyewitnesses who saw his murder...
First of all, the big hat that Bajie buckled on the opposite side can be ruled out first, because these grass cowards don't have the ability to report to the people of the government under the noses of their master and apprentice... Moreover, judging from their testimonies, the people of the government saw them, let alone talk about cooperation... I'm afraid I'm going to eat their knives first.
So, is it a frame-up?
After all, he traveled all the way to the west, and now he is even more famous, and there are demon kings such as the Bull Demon King who gather a group of demons in Xiniu Hezhou, and it is impossible for the courts of various countries to turn a blind eye.
Except for the countrymen... I believe that the imperial courts of all countries to the west should already know the name of Master Sanzang, the imperial brother of the Tang Dynasty, and perhaps they have already had the physiognomy of the five masters and apprentices.
But when they first arrived, they followed Hua'an Mansion without grievances, why should they be like this?
Could it be that they knew of my reputation and had scruples, so they simply set up such a trick and blamed me for it?
But if that's it... There are too many loopholes to justify.
This thought just turned in Fahai's mind, and it was thrown aside, not so much that it was the people of Hua'an Mansion who designed him, but that the Bull Demon King had changed his appearance and came here to kill people and ruin my reputation.
After all, Wukong once said that the Bull Demon King has quite a method of change, but he is not as superb as him.
"Demon Monk! Fateβah! β
Just thinking like this, he saw the general rushing closer, and the horse was afraid of the great sage, and did not dare to step forward, he dismounted and raised his spear on foot.
Wukong in front of him showed a fierce look, and knocked the Xiao general to the ground with a stick, and now he has a measured hand, and he has not hurt his life, and at this moment he is stepping on his back, and scolded: "The wild rider from there, I don't know the etiquette... My master is the royal disciple of the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, and the Heavenly Dynasty is sent to the Emperor... When you see it, you don't know how quickly you kneel down to greet you, and you dare to use the sword soldiers, do you dare to bully me Tang Xuanjia and dare not go on an expedition? ! β
The Great Sage was also afraid of causing other twists and turns, so he pulled out the banner of Datang first.
Besides, he had seen it before, although the blood and evil aura on this horseman's body was not small... Whether it is a good official or not, but he is definitely a human general, with his support in this city, ordinary demons dare not come in and spread wild.
It's a pity... This time I met Sun Dasheng, and he was not an opponent at all.
The general struggled slightly on the ground twice, and when he saw that he couldn't break free, he also calmed down a little, just with a cold face, and said angrily: "Shameless demon monk! Drive the demon monkey to commit murder! β
"Master, this is a brainless reckless man." The Great Sage replied to the master.
Because his general was captured alive, the soldiers who surrounded him didn't dare to be too presumptuous, but the words of the great sage caused the anger of the public, and one by one, even if they couldn't bear it, they were going to come up and fight hard with knives and guns.
"Stand down, step down!"
It was the general who saw that the opportunity was not good and yelled loudly, so that they stopped their figures, so as not to lose their lives in vain.
"Amitabha, the poor monk is a monk who went to the west to worship the Buddha on the order of the Tang King, and his name is Tang Sanzang."
Fahai recited the Buddha's name, and formally introduced himself, before saying, "Wukong, let this donor go first." β
"Yes."
Wukong listens to his master the most.
Fahai can distinguish between good and evil, and the murderous general in front of him has a very clear source of killing, mostly from slaying demons, and then a small part is battlefield killing.
He was even more curious about why such a general was not sent to the real front line, but asked him to guard this Hua'an Mansion.
Hua'an House.
It is the county government of Gaochang County, which borders the Three Kingdoms, borders the West Liang Women's Country in the east, and connects the Benbo Country in the west, and its southern corner originally penetrated into the territory of the Saisai Country... But five or six hundred years ago, a mountain of flames fell from the sky... He cut off the road to the country of the bowl and the country of sacrifice by borrowing Hua'an Mansion directly. (This Gaochangguo is the Gaochangguo in Journey to the West, please do not substitute the Gaochangguo in history into... οΌ
It was also the sin created by the monkey back then, and now he, who is a master, knows that there is a flaming mountain here, but he still walks this way... Naturally, he also had the idea of cleaning up the mess for this stubborn man.
Now this Hua'an Mansion only borders the daughter country, because the daughter country has geographical characteristics, so it is useless for other countries to occupy its land... Therefore, there is no war between the daughter country and the surrounding countries, but there are many commercial and trade exchanges.
In the past, there were some men's caravans to the Xiliang women's country, and after suffering a few losses, they also formed women's trade teams to interact with each other.
Leave that to the moment.
Therefore, such a member of the general did not put him in a key place on the border of the country of this bowl or the country of sacrifice, but lived here... In Fahey's view, it is tantamount to being exiled.
Thinking of the confessions of these bandits before... It seems reasonable for such a thing to happen.
Hmmm-
When the general saw that the self-proclaimed Tang Qincha Sanzang Master was approaching him, he first lowered his eyebrows slightly, as if he was watching the other party's pace... went down and up, looked at the demeanor again, and finally stopped on the face, and he had doubts in his heart for a moment...
Seeing that Master Sanzang was getting closer and closer to him, he couldn't help but make a move after all.
Finger hook into an eagle momentum, reach out and explore...
"Poof-ha, heng heng-"
Well? Is this the laughter of the pig demon?
"Ahh
Before he could take a closer look, he felt that his claws had hit a steel plate, and then his wrist was locked, and then a huge force struck, causing him to twist his body and immediately half-kneel on the ground.
"Hiss-" After the general screamed in pain, he gasped, but said in his mouth: "Demon monk, you are not a murderer!" β
He was tempted by his body to try the means of this demon monk, and now he will capture himself with one move, plus there are several disciples under his command who are so vicious, not to mention killing Taishou Manmen, it is easy to kill them Hua'an Mansion Manmen... Well?
It was his hesitation.
Suddenly, he felt that the strength of his twisting was released, although he was defenseless, and let his body flicker, but he didn't fall because of this... Instead, he turned around and looked at the Buddha-faced Master Sanzang.
He was about to speak, but it was the Sanzang Master on the other side who spoke first: "But you figured it out?" β
The general was still a little hesitant in his heart, but for the sake of the face of the Tang Kingdom and the skills of their master and apprentice, he handed over his hand and reported to his family: "Hua Feilong, the captain of the Xiaoqi Cavalry in Hua'an Mansion of the Lower Gaochang Kingdom." β
Is this kind of skill just a school captain?
When the Great Sage heard this, his heart moved, and he deliberately said, "Who is the guardian of this Hua'an Mansion?" Since your family is too guarded to die, it is time for the Fuzhong University to welcome my master in the future. β
"There are no generals in the house." Hua Feilong shook his head: "The highest position in the city is now me. β
"What about the rest of the officials?" The Great Sage asked again: "What about Changshi, Gongcao, Master Book and others?" β
"When the Taishou family was killed last night, someone heard that the demon monk... The murderer once said that he would kill all the corrupt officials in the city... As a result, overnight, the city officials dragged their families and ran away. β
"Report!" At this time, a quick horse newspaper.
Seeing such a strange situation at the city gate, he paused slightly.
Hua Feilong glared at him: "Speak quickly." β
"All the adults who went out of the city at night were ambushed ten miles north of the city... There is no life left. β
"Daring fanatic!"
After Hua Feilong scolded, he hurriedly bowed to Master Sanzang: "Previously, it was the young general who wronged the mage, and asked the mage to forgive him." β
"It doesn't matter." Fahai waved his hand, he didn't ask Hua Feilong why he ruled out his suspicions, nor did he inadvertently reveal a dark meaning in Hua Feilong's eyes, but asked: "Did the general see the appearance of the murderer last night?" β
"Yes." Hua Feilong nodded and said, "Yesterday, the young general led the guards to inspect the city defense as usual, and suddenly saw a fire in the Taishou Mansion, and it was already a long time late when I rushed there... The Taishou Mansion family, with the servants and maids, did not leave a single living mouth in the door, and under the light of the fire, a figure was reflected.... Even the face is clearly visible. β
"That body and appearance are like poor monks, no different?" Fahai asked?
"With my eyesight, I can't see the difference in body shape." Hua Feilong frowned and said, "Judging from now... It seems more like he's deliberately showing his face in front of us... It's to blame the mage. β
Speaking of this, Hua Feilong glanced at the Great Sage, and seemed to say: I am also the leader of the troops... Captain, not a brainless man.
duangduangduangοΌ
Peng Peng Peng!
Suddenly, gongs and drums began to beat in the city.
It's not even a year's worth of festivals... There are also people who blatantly set off firecrackers.
Of course, they are not to welcome the Tang Dynasty monks, but to see off the corrupt officials in the city... If you meet someone who is kneeling on the ground and crying, most of them will cry with joy.
A few... It's the handyman or the maid's own roll in the Taishou Mansion.
The master and apprentice glanced at each other, and there was a bit of helplessness in their eyes, and they said in their hearts: Looking at the dog officials in this mansion is really unpopular with the people.
"It's all scattered, it's all scatteredβ"
Hua Feilong sent his subordinates to follow the people to persuade them to return... He only dared to send his entourage out, if he let the big-headed soldiers out... I don't know what kind of mess is going to start yet.
"Report ββ! The left step is in chaos. β
"Report ββ! The sonic battalion mutinied. β
"Damn it, it's all against the sky!" Hua Feilong turned over and got on his horse, put his fingers between his lips, made a sharp whistle, and saw about a hundred cavalry gathering, he waved his horsewhip, and his momentum suddenly rose, as if this cavalry team was integrated with him, "Brothers, first go with me to take care of the group of rabbit cubs who have never seen blood." β
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
After shouting three times in a row, he rushed out of the city gate and hurried to the location of the military camp, but left five Fahai masters and apprentices and more than thirty bandits in place.
Even Hua Feilong has never seen these thirty or so bandits from beginning to end... Originally, they should be the protagonists of today's Hua'an Mansion, but the sudden changes in Hua'an Mansion in front of them made them uncaring, and no one seemed to care about their existence.
Or Bajie stepped forward and said: "Originally, I said that the government would be called to condemn you, but now it's good... Almost all the officials of Hua'an Mansion, big and small, died..."
Everyone was silent after hearing Bajie's words, and they didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a while.
"Master, where are we going now? You can't block the gates, can you? The little white dragon asked.
"Let's go to the Taishou Mansion first." Fahai decided, "Do you want to go with you?" If you find anything, you can report it to your general. β
Fahai's last sentence was said to Hua Feilong's team of foot guards.
The squad leader thought for a moment and said, "Since you are not a murderer, general, I believe that you are not a murderer, and we will go with you... If we die at your hands, it will be a warning to the generals. β
"Amitabha, you are faithful."
"We are the best soldiers in a hundred battles, and we have our own loyalty, are we those who are greedy for life and afraid of death."
Fahai smiled: "Then bother this little general and show the way for the poor monks and apprentices." β
The squad leader's face flushed, obviously caught off guard by the little general's call.
On the way to Taishou Mansion-
The Great Sage is also pondering the strangeness of this matter, that Hua Feilong should not be lying, the murderer who killed the Taishou Mansion last night was the one who changed the appearance of the master and committed the murder, and there are not many people in the Three Realms who are really proficient in the art of change, like some goblins cast changes, more of them are illusions, commonly known as the blind method.
The Great Sage suddenly thought of what Erlang Zhenjun had said to himself in the Zhenjun Temple: "There are some things that Master is not suitable to do, but he can..."
But this kind of disaster in front of him is definitely not the handiwork of Erlang Zhenjun, if he makes a move, it will never be so rough... Nor will they kill innocents indiscriminately.
"The Bull Demon King?" The Great Sage shook his head again: "If he comes... The people of a city have long since finished eating. β
I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't know anything, and as soon as I put down my thoughts, I arrived at the Taishou Mansion.
Fahai observed for a moment, his brows gradually furrowed, and his expression became more and more unkind.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"It's a Buddhist."
"What?" Several disciples were taken aback.
"The souls of the dead here have already been overtaken in advance..."Fahai shook his head, his face solemn: "It's a death spell." β
The Great Sage asked: "Master, the mantra of the past life is widely spread in the world, could it be that someone is acting in the name of Buddhism?" β
γ
"No, it won't." Fahai shook his head: "Although the mantra of the past life is widely spread, if there is not enough Dharma cultivation and mana blessings, how can it have such an effect of surpassing the souls of the dead?" β
Wujing nodded on the side: "Senior brother, what Master said is right!" β
"You rarely overtook the undead in the past, so you don't know the subtlety, that is, the younger brother has to spend some effort to overtake the undead of this house... People outside the Buddhism Sect want to overtake the souls in this mansion in a very fast time if they want to overtake the souls in this mansion in a very fast time, and they are afraid that if they fail to do so, they will be eaten by the unjust souls. β
These words, Master Fahai did not avoid this small group of personal guards... Naturally, they were dumbfounded, and they didn't know whether to believe it or not.
"Could it be that there is another high-ranking monk in the house?" Bajie asked.
"If there is a high monk, the teacher has already sensed."
"Amitabha." Fahai held the Buddha salute in both hands towards the west, and after reciting the Buddha's name, he said to several disciples: "Disperse, be sure to find this fang before nightfall today." β
ps: It's a chapter for today...
