Chapter 581: Eating and Fasting and Reciting Buddha
Zhangjiazhuang stands on flat ground, only about three miles away from the county seat.
The village walls are high and thick, with places for archers to stand, and watchtowers, which look less like a manor than a castle.
In the northeast corner of the estate, there is a small monastery. The temple enshrines the golden body of the Buddha, and there are two monks, one teacher and one apprentice.
The monastery and monks are all supported by Zhang Guangcheng and are his family temple.
Inside the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
Zhang Guangcheng, who was in his fifties, wore a monk's robe, knelt in front of the gold-plated Buddha with a cloak and a cloak scattered, holding a rosary, a solemn treasure and reciting the Diamond Sutra.
The little monk with clear eyebrows accompanied him to recite the scriptures. An old monk regularly taps the wooden fish.
Sandalwood burns, and the hall is full of smoke, which is very zen.
Zhang Guangcheng has made a fortune for more than 20 years, the first ten years of wine does not leave his body, the last ten years of fasting and reciting Buddha, in his later years, he has the idea of becoming a monk.
"Da Da Da!"
A rush of footsteps sounded, and Zhang Guangcheng's eldest son, Zhang Yongyuan, walked in from the outside, breaking the Zen in the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
The two monks looked up at Zhang Yongyuan and folded their hands together. "Amitabha." Then he got up and left.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Guangcheng sighed, opened his eyes and asked.
"Father. A large number of people came straight for us. Zhang Yongyuan walked in front of Zhang Guangcheng, knelt down, and said.
"Do you know who it is?" Zhang Guangcheng lowered his eyes, folded his hands, and asked.
"It's the person of Liaodong Tiger Wu Nian." Zhang Yongyuan nodded and said.
"Woe has come. Prosperity and decline, and loss when the moon is full. Our Zhang family, that's the end of it. Zhang Guangcheng opened his eyes slightly, sighing and relieved, and said.
Zhang Yongyuan frowned, the older this old man gets, the more eccentric his temper becomes. What does it mean to eat fasting and chant Buddha all day long?
And he said all the depressing words.
"Why should my father be so pessimistic? Is there any difference between him Wu Nian and Meng Yuanren, and Liaodong Jiangmen? As long as we give money, we can have a good relationship with them. The Zhang family can stand tall. ”
Zhang Yongyuan retorted.
"Hey." Zhang Guangcheng looked at his son and sighed. This son is like himself in his early years, daring to act, not afraid of heaven and earth, and ruthless.
Is there any difference between Liaodong Jiangmen, Mengyuan people, and Wu Nian?
It's really different.
The people of Liaodong Jiangmen can deceive and bribe.
Mengyuan people can be fearful, they can bribe, but they can't deceive.
Wu Nian can't cheat, can't bribe. It is like a stone without gaps, and oil and salt do not enter.
This kind of person is the most terrifying.
"Do whatever you want. By yourself. When Zhang Guangcheng thought of this, he didn't say more, folded his hands, knelt in front of the Buddha's golden body, and chanted the Buddha in a low voice.
"Father. You. Ay. Zhang Yongyuan looked at his father's appearance, he felt breathless, sighed and stood up, stomped his feet and left.
It is impossible to stop it.
I can't stop it.
After Zhang Yongyuan left the temple, he turned his head to his henchman and said, "Go and ask Miss Wang to prepare." I've been raising her for ten years, and it's time for her to help me. ”
"Prepare a banquet of the highest order."
"Take an inventory of the silver, gold, cloth, and granaries in the treasury."
"Yes." The henchman replied, turned and left.
"I don't believe it. What is the difference between Wu Nian and Liaodong Jiangmen and Mengyuan people. Zhang Yongyuan sneered, walked quickly to the gate of the manor, let the door open, let the house slave put away his sword, and waited for Wu Nian.
Miss Wang's name is Wang Xuanji, she is sixteen this year, and she is born in a beautiful country. Because of the fall of the family road, he almost fell into the dust. He saved her and helped her avenge her, and has been raised in the mansion, teaching qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and waiting for men's kung fu in case of emergency.
He planned to find an opportunity to give Wang Xuanji to Wu Nian as a concubine.
"General. Ahead is the Zhangjia Manor. The team of people surrounded Wu Nian and Li Tianbao along the avenue, Zhangjiazhuang appeared in front, and Li Tianbao stretched out his hand and pointed to the manor road.
"Hmm." Wu Nian hummed, rode his horse, and after a while, he arrived at the gate of the manor.
"Li Tianbao?" Zhang Yongyuan knew Li Tianbao, narrowed his eyes slightly, and bloomed with a trace of killing intent. As soon as Wu Nian's army came to Jinghai County, Wu Nian's man suddenly visited his manor.
It must have something to do with Li Tianbao.
But Zhang Yongyuan was puzzled. His family has always been very secretive, even if Mengyuan people can get away with it, why would Li Tianbao know?
Zhang Yongyuan didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly bent down to Wu Nian and said, "This lord." I'm Zhang Yongyuan. I don't know why this adult came to my Zhangjiazhuang? ”
"I'm Wu Nian. Come to your father. Wu Nian glanced at Zhang Yongyuan, and then waved his right hand.
The hundreds of households that came with it immediately greeted and rushed in with soldiers. The whole Zhangjiazhuang is jumping in an instant.
Whether it was the elderly, the female dependents, the house slaves, or the guards, they were all invited out.
Zhang Yongyuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, Wu Nian actually came in person?!!!!!
Sweat was pouring from his head, but he didn't dare to resist at all, so he could only laugh forcibly, clasp his fists and salute: "Meet General Fuhan." ”
"Hmm." Wu Nian snorted, still not meaning to get off the horse. Li Tianbao gave Zhang Yongyuan a sneer.
"General. Zhang Guangcheng is in the manor. Not long after, a hundred households came out and bent down to report to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian turned over and dismounted, turned back to his soldiers and said, "Take care of them all, and don't let anyone run away." ”
"Yes."
The pro-soldier responded. Wu Nian and Li Tianbao entered the manor together.
"General." Zhang Yongyuan sweated like rain, and hurriedly wanted to chase after him. But he was stopped by the fierce and vicious personal soldiers, who held the hilt of the knife at his waist and said: "Don't test my bottom line, if you dare to take another step, I will slaughter you." ”
Zhang Yongyuan suddenly fell into decay and stood in place in fear.
What now?
He has always been shrewd and capable, but he was at a loss for a while.
Wu Nian and Li Tianbao walked along the corridor, and on both sides were soldiers standing guard. Soon after, they came to the small temple and entered the Mahavira Hall.
A team of personal soldiers scattered in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, eyeing Zhang Guangcheng.
"You are Zhang Guangcheng?" Wu Nian glanced at Zhang Guangcheng's dress, then looked at the surrounding layout, especially at the golden body of the Buddha, and sneered: "Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground?" ”
"If you're so scared. Why not raise the butcher's knife and go on a killing spree. People block killing, and Buddhas block killing Buddhas. ”
"General Wu. In front of the Buddha, please be careful with your words. Zhang Guangcheng had already learned Wu Nian's identity from the mouth of his own soldiers, sighed, folded his hands, and said.
"In my life, I killed people and set fires, slaughtered cities and destroyed countries. There is no relationship with the Buddha. There is no need to be cautious either. Wu Nian waved his hand, then came to sit down opposite Zhang Guangcheng, raised his head and said, "Old boy." I know what you've done. I'll just ask you. Just one sentence. ”
"If you help me kill Kunihiko Torii, I'll spare your family. Otherwise, I'll kill your whole family." Men, women, young and old, chickens and dogs are not left. ”
