Although the empty samadhi is dead, there are miraculous remnants of the fusion of Buddhism and Taoism in his sea of consciousness.

When he was alive, a Buddha kingdom of consciousness had already been built within the sea of consciousness.

It is full of lotus flowers, and the sound of Buddha spreads through.

After his death, the lotus pond withered and dried up, and the sound of the Buddha disappeared.

But in the center of his Zhihai Buddha Kingdom, there is a stone monument.

After the death of this ancient monument in the empty samadhi, there is still a glimmer of light.

The ancient monument was baptized by the light of the Buddha, and I don't know how many years have passed, and it has been transformed into almost jade.

In addition to the Buddha's light, there is also a layer of dark purple rhyme.

Father......

Huo Quzhi came into contact with Lao Tzu's handwritten Taoist Jane, observed the corpse of empty samadhi, and soon found that there was an ancient tablet hidden in his sea of knowledge, and recognized that the Taoist rhyme contained in the tablet came from Lao Tzu.

Lao Tzu sent a letter to Guguan in the west, stayed in the body poison, and also had contact with the Buddha Siddhartha...... Huo Quzhi guessed.

The light of the Buddha that can coexist with the breath of Lao Tzu in the stele can only come from the Buddha Siddhartha.

The Spring and Autumn period of China was a very mysterious era.

Lao Tzu, Kong Sheng, Sun Tzu, Guiguzi, Zhuangzi...... All emerged in a concentrated manner during that period.

Including saints from other countries, Buddha, Socrates from ancient Greece, and many more.

The ancient monument left by the Buddha and the Taoist ancestor is of immeasurable value and is undoubtedly a holy relic.

This also explains the reason why the empty samadhi was killed before, and the corpse still has a slight fluctuation of divine soul.

At the moment of his death, he was full of unwillingness, overflowing a wisp of divine consciousness, wanting to enter the ancient monument, get its support, and retain his immortality.

The human body has three souls and seven spirits, with the physical body as the carrier, and they are dependent on each other.

However, even if there is a holy relic of this ancient monument hidden in the consciousness of empty samadhi, at most, it is only to flee into the monument when it is dying, seeking refuge for a while.

That doesn't change the fact that he's dead.

A little consciousness escapes, like an obsession, but it has lost its foundation, like a dilapidated house leaking everywhere, stormy and shaky, even if it is hidden in a stone tablet, it is difficult to survive forever.

At this time, the remnant soul of the empty samadhi hidden in the stele had already sensed that Huo Qubing had discovered the stele.

He was terrified, realizing that a catastrophe was coming, and there was no more luck.

His last consciousness pushed out the remnants of hatred:

"This stele contains the power of the Buddha, and you don't want to dissolve my consciousness in the stele.

If you sow evil causes, you will suffer evil consequences, and your spirit will perish and die. ”

Huo Quzhi said: "The divine soul needs to be attached to the physical body, I only need to completely destroy your physical body, even if the remnant soul of Ling escapes into the stone tablet, it will be affected, and then die together, and can no longer exist." ”

In the stele, the remaining thoughts of empty samadhi suddenly trembled.

Huo Quzhi said what he was most afraid of.

Huo Quzhi was planning to make a move to completely destroy the corpse of the empty samadhi.

But just before he could do it, his heart moved slightly, revealing a deep groan, and he gave birth to another better way to use the empty samadhi corpse.

Huo Qu's illness sees the sea.

In his sea of knowledge, there was still a Xuanhuang symbol and two pale gold symbols left.

When his mind moved slightly, the Xuanhuang symbol in it suddenly moved into the soul resurrection plan by borrowing corpses, pushing it to transform into a middle strategy!

Huo Quzhi sent one of the two golden symbols into the borrowing corpse resurrection plan again.

This military strategy has been continuously improved, and the displacement changes in the military book, alongside the other three strategies.

Above the original simplicity of the soul restoration plan, the two ancient characters of the seal body in the middle strategy slowly transformed into the best policy.

The best strategy borrowed the corpse to resurrect the soul, and the power has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Huo Quzhi sealed it with one hand, and the best strategy was to return the soul, so he released the power of Ji Jian and imprinted it on the corpse of the empty samadhi.

The corpse changed, as if it had been reborn from death.

The best strategy borrowed the corpse to return the soul, so that the empty samadhi was slowly bridged under the action of the strategy.

The secret in his body glowed, and the sound of Buddha reappeared.

In his consciousness, the dried lotus pond flowed with a glimmer of light, and began to reconnect with the faith of the believers, and the light gradually grew.

His corpse gradually regained its 'life', repairing the injuries caused by Huo Qu's death.

The remnant soul consciousness hidden in the stone tablet was pulled by the body, and involuntarily emerged and blended with the body.

This is the relationship between the body and the spirit, which complement each other and cannot be separated.

When the strength of the body is restored, the strong and intact body will form a 'gravitational pull', so that the little soul of the empty samadhi cannot be resisted, and the remnant of the body is attracted to merge with the body, which is called the return of the body!

And the ancient monument has been sacrificed by him, and the traction force formed by his own body, the miracle of the existence of the ancient monument will not stop it.

"No ......"

The remnants of the empty samadhi were shocked and wanted to struggle back into the inscription.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out.

His remnant soul was weak and had lost his original strength.

In fact, at this time, it was Huo Quzhi's differentiated consciousness that dominated, relying on the method of returning the soul of the corpse, stationed in the corpse, and treated his corpse as a 'magic weapon', which was being sacrificed.

In the process, the power of the Soul Restoration Scheme absorbed and assimilated the remnant soul of the empty samadhi.

The traces of his existence have been completely wiped out by now.

Change continues.

The best strategy is to restore the soul of the corpse, not only after recovering the damage of the corpse and absorbing the remnants of the empty samadhi, but also obtaining most of his memories.

In a sense, this resurrection body is almost equivalent to the previous empty samadhi.

The only difference is that his self-consciousness has disappeared and has become a pawn of Huo Quai.

Time passes.

Outside the body of the empty samadhi body, the light of the Buddha emerged, and the image of the Buddha mother with eighteen arms reappeared.

The empty samadhi also has a prayer cylinder and a golden bowl, both of which are Buddhist vessels with great origins and treasures of body poison.

Huo Quai's thoughts were transmitted, and he immediately stood up, walked into the small soldier's mansion, sat cross-legged, and continued to recover from his injuries.

Huo Quai's illness also sits and cultivates to warm up the strength in the body.

It is worth mentioning that before he started in Gandhara City, he urged the small soldiers' mansion to jump out of the demon destroying array evolved by the golden bowl in the empty samadhi, and a new military strategy was opened in the book of knowing the sea - the golden cicada is out of the shell!

This is the strongest escape ability among the thirty-six strategies, and it involves a magical skill of space shifting attributes.

According to ancient records, Meng Mingshi, a famous general of the Qin State in the Spring and Autumn Period, was defeated and fought repeatedly, but every time he was defeated without dying, he made a comeback, and finally won a big victory and became a generation of famous generals, because he mastered the method of the golden cicada shelling.

This magical power is known as the Immortal Strategy, and only a handful of soldiers in the past generations have obtained it.

Gandhara City.

The five giants sat opposite each other in the central hall.

Several people were also injured.

When he fought with Gongsun Hong, half of his body was stained with blood, and two faces were shattered at one point, and he only urged his strength to recover after he returned.

"The Buddha treasures that the empty samadhi mastered, and the things that the Buddha handed down to the world, were all carried by him and let the world-destroying demon take them together."

It is unwillingness to speak.

Several giants looked at each other with solemn expressions.

"That evil demon has become a climate, and there are many accomplices, and the strength of the two old men before is not ordinary."

"The Han army is hanging in Wuzhen, it seems that a few of us will have to stay here in Gandhara for a while longer, see the follow-up situation, and guard against the demon who destroys the world again."

Dao Di sighed: "The truth of suffering has not yet absorbed the fruition, and the empty samadhi has been killed by evil demons.

No matter how difficult it is for us to form a demon destroying array, how can we get rid of the demon destroying demons? ”

Wu Xiang pondered and said: "You can contact the Han people's vertical and horizontal paths, and look for opportunities to deal with the world-destroying demons."

A person has seven emotions and six desires, and he must also have people or things that he cares about, and when he understands something, he will consider how to deal with him. ”

"Hmmm......"

After a while, they dispersed.

After they returned to the ashram where they lived, they became extremely cautious, and when they entered the room, they first activated their supernatural powers, checked every inch of the void, and made sure that they were safe.

He even did not hesitate to use Buddhist weapons and set up an array to protect his body before he dared to enter the meditation practice.

At noon, the sun was fine.

Bai Nanyu walked into Huo Quai's big tent.

She is now a confidant of the forbidden army, and she has the position of military staff, so she naturally took over the task of helping Huo Qu sick and tidying up military affairs, including personal life.

She is wearing an apricot-colored curved deep skirt with a flowing hem, which is the kind of fishtail three-knee skirt inherited from the Warring States Period and rich in Chu style, which can best reflect the woman's graceful and elegant posture and has a different charm.

The dress is cinched at the waist and then rounded and upright downward, revealing a plump silhouette with a stride.

In the big tent, Gongsun Hong and Dong Zhongshu were also there.

There are also brave generals such as Zhang Cigong and Hun Evil King, Fulu Branch, Yao Zhao and so on.

Bai Nanyu came to the main seat of Huo Quzhi and knelt on the side, held a pen and studied ink, and was responsible for the work of recording the military staff.

Her charming peach blossom eyes glanced at it, and there was a marching map in the middle of the crowd.

This was a combat meeting that involved the subsequent use of poison against the body.

The old prime minister stared at the poison map that Luo Xiu stole back from Gandhara City, and asked if he didn't understand:

"I look at Huo Hou, you used troops in the past, they were fast and powerful, and you will get something from sending troops, and you can often decide the world in a battle.

Why did this time the fight poison and entanglement for half a month, and there has not been a full-scale war so far, and it is all a small-scale confrontation on the border? ”

Dong Zhongshu, including the Evil King, Zhang Cigong and others also had similar doubts.

Huo Quai's body was poisoned, and he has not broken the enemy deeply, which is obviously different from his unstoppable tactics in the past.

"The border area of the poisonous country is large, and if you fight a little bit, it is better not to fight it if you advance it little by little."

Huo Quzhi explained slightly: "Body poison is not our opponent, it can be determined, no matter how you fight him, you will lose, but there is no need to be in such a hurry."

From the topography, we are located on a plateau, and nature is superior. Only the poisonous man can't see the situation clearly, and he will always have a big elevation angle when he beats us, and it is difficult to find a victory.

Even in the next millennium, it can be asserted that the larger the war, the more they will suffer, and they will always be suppressed by us. ”

Huo Quzhi talked eloquently: "I didn't use the army for body poison in an all-round way, there are two reasons.

First of all, once the body is poisoned and fights deep into its borders, the consumption will be very large. Because of the depth of its border formation and population, it is destined to be difficult to win quickly.

We have just recovered the Western Regions, and we have the Dayue clan and the two countries of Kangju, these places are enough for us to digest for a long time. ”

Dong Zhongshu nodded: "Internally, my Han still has to build a canal and build a grand canal."

If a country is not a small country, if it goes to war with it, it will bring a huge burden on the treasury and taxes. ”

Huo Quzhi continued: "In the confrontation with the body poison, if the army is used conventionally, it will be difficult to win completely if it is not protracted, and it is possible to stalemate for several years. The long-distance transportation of grain and grass alone is a great burden. ”

"The second reason is that if our Han and the body poison start a full-scale war, the Huns will definitely make a move, or unite with the body poison to attack our Han from the northern front, or take the opportunity to recover the consumption that has been suppressed by us in the past two years."

"Either way, it's not good for us."

Everyone nodded.

There are indeed many disadvantages to fighting body poison.

But at the same time, there was a sense of anticipation in everyone.

There are many objective difficulties, but Huo Quai's past achievements have given them a lot of confidence.

Everyone believed that he had a plan to solve or take into account these problems, and that he could defeat the poison without allowing the Xiongnu to take advantage of it, and that he could save national strength.

"What is Huo Hou's good strategy, can raise troops without hindrance?" Gongsun Hong blinked.

Huo Quzhi: "There are indeed some plans, and they have already begun to advance.

But it also takes a while to implement before it can be effective. ”

"So from the very beginning, Huo Hou kept Wuzhen, a small country at the southern end of the Western Regions, and didn't fight it, because he wanted to use Wuzhen as a strategic buffer?"

Dong Zhongshu realized: "And Huo Hou is now coming to the front line in person, and he is still hiding the purpose of confusing the enemy, deliberately starting a small-scale war with the body poison, covering your real intention to use troops in secret?" ”

Huo Quzhi nodded slightly.

As for what tricks he had to use poison on his body, there were many people who talked about it, and he didn't continue to talk about it.

Over the next few days, time passed.

Through Vina, Huo Qubing learned that the Xiongnu had obtained a sum of supplies sent further north.

This material can allow the Xiongnu royal department to survive the winter.

And Yi Zhixian is actively watching the situation of Hanhe's poison.

If the Han goes to war with the body poison, the Xiongnu will also make a move.

In late January, Huo Quzhi decided to go back to Chang'an first.

His arrangement for the use of poison troops was not to go south from Wuqi in the Western Regions, but to make other arrangements, and he needed to go back to Chang'an to make some adjustments.
