Chapter 537: The poor monk is also a little proficient

After all, it's your own territory.

Zhang Ke didn't go straight to the point as soon as he came up, but put away his true appearance and turned into an ordinary person's size, waiting for the general who should be the receptionist to come and complete the due process.

"Since the previous parting, it has been a hundred and fifty years since I saw the heroic appearance of the Spirit King, and the memories of the past wars in the Western Regions are still in front of me."

In the smoke and dust, a group of people galloped in front of Zhang Ke, and the general led by him almost did not hesitate to turn over and dismount and take off his helmet, and said with a smile.

"Marshal, it's wrong, the Holy King is now the Emperor!"

The young general who followed beside him vaguely pulled the corner of the former's clothes and reminded in a low voice.

"In front of the emperor, the party is reckless, and please Haihan!"

Zhang Ke shook his head with a smile when he heard this:

"General Su is too worried, why don't you tell me what the process is in Kyushu now, as far as my memory is concerned, Tubo should have been destroyed at that time, why did it pop up again?"

Although Zhang Ke has not been to Kyushu once since his debut, he has many acquaintances here.

Naturally, Dahan doesn't need to mention much, maybe Zhang Ke's name is already thunderous on the Dahan side, but he himself is really not familiar with the local Dahan in Kyushu.

Even before this, Zhang Ke had cooperated with Zhang Tianshi once.

But that was also the Eastern Han Dynasty recreated by Emperor Guangwu, and it had little to do with the Han Dynasty in Kyushu and was still in the prime of Han Dynasty.

And the Tang Dynasty, which was juxtaposed with the Han Dynasty, thought that it was because of his alliance with the Xiyue Emperor that many barbarians were swept away, so that the Tang Dynasty, which was unified by heaven and earth, was also able to be incorporated into the Kyushu territory, and while enjoying the core treatment of the Pan-Kyushu civilization, it also undertook the first front of the digestion of foreign war results.

In addition, Nanyan, who was only mentioned in the relevant introduction of the event, is also an old acquaintance.

Its original body was the Liao State, and after the western expedition to unify the Western Regions and Europe, it also received the Great Song Dynasty, which had long been dying, and thus merged into Kyushu itself with the unification of heaven and earth.

However, compared with the strong Han and Tang dynasties, Liao lacked too much in terms of legitimacy and heritage, and in the case of the Han and Tang dynasties, the north and the west looked at the world, and the Liao State could only move to the southwest corner of Kyushu aggrievedly and provoked the defense line on the south side of Kyushu.

And Yan is the Liao country after the ascension, in order to show his legitimacy in front of the eldest brother and the second brother, he changed the original country name, Yan is the new country name of Liao, and the south is its geographical location.

Zhang Ke's luck was not bad, so he hit these two-thirds of a good start.

As for the veteran who is nearly middle-aged in front of him, he is a well-known acquaintance for both Zhang Ke and Datang.

Su Dingfang.

The Tang Dynasty criminal Guogong, a young and famous general, once captured the Turkic Khan alive during the Taizong period, and then saved Silla, broke the battle of 500, destroyed the Western Turks, defeated the Tubo to open up the Western Regions, razed Baekje, and conquered Goguryeo.

has traveled thousands of miles in his life, "destroying the Three Kingdoms before and after, and capturing their masters", even in the star-studded Tang Dynasty, he is a fierce general.

And after the Tang Dynasty broke out of the original historical cage and flew to the mainland of Kyushu, along with the myth of heaven and earth, it is difficult to predict what the originally famous Meng will become.

And Su Dingfang is just a member of the epitome of the Tang Dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty of the same era, there are not a few generals who can compare with him.

"This matter is a long story, the original Tubo has been extinguished, and now Tubo is the new barbarian co-master under the reflection of heaven and earth, the Tubo of the Tang Dynasty, the Xiongnu of the Han Dynasty, is a kind of integration of the barbarians under the transformation of heaven and earth, in detail, they have a wide range of sources and many names, but for convenience, the Tang Dynasty will unify it to refer to Tubo."

"Anyway, they are all barbarians who will die sooner or later, and they don't bother to write about the country. The emperor should not look at me like this, this is the original words of the civil officials! ”

Seeing this, the veteran hurriedly explained to Zhang Ke.

"It's really worthy of the Tang Dynasty!"

Zhang Ke muttered, and then asked about matters related to the event, and for him, the hero of the Tang Dynasty's ascension, the veteran naturally would not hide it.

Carrying the rhino canal that was packed and brought under him, Zhang Ke and Su Dingfang, who was riding a beast-like beast, were in parallel:

"So that the emperor knows, because of the warning of heaven and earth, His Majesty sent us to divide into three routes, each leading an army of 300,000 to go to the expedition, I am responsible for the way of Tubo, and now the army has gathered more than 100 rangers from other worlds, with such efficiency, when we reach the border pass, we may be able to pull up a team of more than 1,000?"

"As for the war. Originally, there was a plan, but now that the emperor is here, all the previous plans have to be changed in due course, if you suppress the formation, everything will be business as usual, but if you are us, you can also be a good auxiliary. ”

After all, this cooperation is not the first time for Su Dingfang or Tang Bing, who had participated in the Western Regions War.

Zhang Ke nodded knowingly.

His temperament will not sit in the rear safely.

In fact, it was a process, by the way, so as not to accidentally injure his allies, and he had no patience to wait for the army to move slowly to the border.

Even under the conception of Kyushu, Datang has entered the category of mythology, and the already elite soldiers have become little supermen-like existences in the changes of a hundred years.

"In this case, then please let Rong Chen pass on to Your Majesty!"

Su Dingfang was not surprised by Zhang Ke's idea of abandoning the army and going deep behind enemy lines alone, but after finding a team of scouts to explain, he turned around and explained: "Since the emperor has gone to Tibet, then you have to pay attention to one person and one religion on this trip." ”

"One person refers to Master Xuanzang, after my Tang Dynasty ascended to heaven, Master Xuanzang expedited the translation of the scriptures, and thirteen years ago translated all the scriptures, passed down the classics, and said goodbye to His Majesty five years ago, and led the four disciples to Tubo alone, wanting to argue with the Tibetan evil monks, the Master and Lingshan are not all the way, if the emperor encounters, please don't embarrass Master Xuanzang!"

"A religion is Lingshan, to you after the destruction of the monks in the world, in order to maintain the stability of the Taoist system, the Lingshan Buddhas and Bodhisattvas returned to Kyushu, closed the mountain gate at the same time also shifted attention to the adjacent to my Tang Dynasty, but there are monks in the Tubo land, according to secret reports, since thirty years ago in the Tubo temples there have been monks large-scale discernment of the scriptures, and because the temple is relatively closed, now it has developed to what stage, the Tang Dynasty does not know much about the inside story."

"Except for these two, most of the rest are witch barbarians, even if they have foreign heels, they are just some scabies."

For the rest of the Pan-Kyushu civilization, the problem of the surrounding barbarians can actually be big or small, in the period of the dynasty's territorial expansion, any barbarian hero had to be crushed into a puddle of mud under the wheel of the monster of Kyushu, and in the last years of the dynasty, when natural disasters and man-made disasters broke out continuously, the problem of barbarians will be expanded accordingly.

Of course, that's exactly what it is.

For example, the divided princes after the strong Han and the Three Kingdoms period, any defeated prince can cry for his father and mother according to the barbarians.

But there are exceptions to everything, just like the orthodox Great Song Dynasty, from the beginning of the dynasty to the day before its demise, it has been pressed to the ground and rubbed by the barbarians, which is really a loss of face for the Kyushu civilization circle.

But that's for the rest of the Pan-Kyushu civilization.

In Kyushu itself, whether it is the Han Dynasty or the newly promoted Tang Dynasty, they have long been familiar with the conquest of barbarians, and in more than 100 years, the number of barbarians who have been destroyed by the Tang Dynasty has exceeded 30, and the expansion of land is not limited to thousands of miles.

However, Kyushu itself is the first front line for the transformation of mountains and rivers in the outer regions, and most of the transformations here are hard bones, and those who can be smashed by the heavenly court and the earth to put the true spirit here, even if it is just a small nomadic tribe, its original body should be part of the multiverse, not to mention those who are strong enough to establish a dynasty, and the civilization level is at least.

In this way, even if it is a strong man and a prosperous Tang Dynasty, he has to face countless barbarians like leeks.

When Zhang Ke heard this, his eyes were thoughtful:

"Okay, I've got it!"

As soon as the words fell, the rhino ditch under him immediately crossed his horse and whipped up, and ran at a high speed, kicking up a thick cloud of sand and dust on the already congested road.

"Over the years, you may have been lazy?"

Looking at the rapidly regressing scenery on both sides, Zhang Ke stretched out his hand and patted the bull's head in front of him while enjoying the local scenery of Kyushu with his thoughts.

Compared with the march of the army, the speed of the rhino canal was much faster, but it did not reach the speed that Zhang Ke was satisfied with.

Even when Zhang Ke rode it in the past, it was slightly inferior, and there was a lot of noise, and the dust in the sky almost turned into turbulent sand, and the beautiful land of mountains and rivers was completely destroyed by this guy.

Fortunately, there are still land gods who follow behind to wash the ground, so they won't let Zhang Ke do it himself.

Just said that he was light and simple, but he couldn't bear this rough cow and begged for nothing, although Zhang Ke was strict with the outside world, but in his own body, he asked himself who he had not treated badly.

As for the elders who are parents, who hasn't cleaned up the mess for the bear children?

"Master, I am still young, two thousand years old, I am still a child in my rhino canal clan, you wait for me to grow up, I will not fall into your majesty!"

What's more, sir, how heavy is your old man now, don't you have points in your heart?

There is no such thing as a miracle that has been transformed into a tire and is not used to cover it up, and under the pressure of this behemoth, it can run as a result of all these years of hard work, and what kind of bicycle do you need.

"You're young, so you're saying I'm old?"

Zhang Ke said indifferently, but it made the whole rhino canal numb.

Patronizing himself to make excuses, and forgetting that his own child is also a big one:

"Master, you know, I didn't mean that!"

Zhang Ke was unmoved when he heard this.

just knocked on the hideous bull's head casually, and then scolded with a smile: "You talk a lot."

Fortunately, Zhang Ke is not in a hurry.

It's hard to have fun on your own turf, and you can't use the home advantage.

Along the way, but the places where Zhang Ke passed, the surrounding mountains and forests, and the rivers were quietly moving, and one by one the mountain gods stood beside the road, helplessly looking at the stripped gods on their bodies.

Diyou is not a monkey, so he doesn't have to worry about not returning what he lent.

It's just that this movement is too big, it's too big!

Tens, millions of miles of mountains and rivers are moving, and with the displacement of mountains and rivers, the rhythm that seems to be like a heartbeat is rapidly being integrated, like the thunder of war drums, so that they can't help but pray to God.

They are the gods of the mountains, they are the land.

It is a protector who protects the safety of the water and soil and protects the people to live and work in peace and contentment, not labor.

Damn barbarians, you have nothing to do with sects, and you can provoke Him to do something!

And when Zhang Ke unified the mountains and rivers on the west side of the entire Tang Dynasty, at the same time, it was far away on a high mountain in "Tubo".

The towering courtyard is as pure as the snow on a snow-capped mountain, and the gilded gold dome glows dazzlingly in the high daylight. The wisps of Dharma spread to all directions with the wind on the top of the mountain, spreading the Buddha's compassion to this dark and cold plateau.

Jokhang Temple is the name of its later generations, and now it is called Jasa, which is intended to be goat soil.

Compared with other ancient temples under the rule of Tubo, and with more inheritance, Jokhang Temple is the holy place of Tubo today, and it is also the more respected temple among the three religions of the Red and Yellow Gods.

But in the holy place of great compassion and great bliss, which is under the attention of all Buddhas and bodhisattvas, the most serious blasphemy is going on in the entire plateau at this moment.

In the square in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, scarlet blood flowed wantonly along the cracks in the ground, the red gold bricks were infected with a dark red color, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

Monks of all sizes dressed in esoteric robes surrounded the square, looking at the middle of the square with anger or despair.

There, a sweaty monk dressed in a red monk's robe and a sweaty hat was arguing with a monk with a pale-faced face.

It's just that the esoteric monks around who are "watching the excitement" are not interested in hearing the truth one by one.

Although with the status of the Dharma King, even if the monk who can debate the scriptures with him is not a member of Esoteric Buddhism, his words are also a collection of great wisdom and great principles of his life, which can be called a treasure like a golden bead.

But at that level, it is useless to listen to it, just like a commoner will not take a whole piece of gold brick to buy, ordinary monks will not be able to understand the wisdom in it at all, but will be shattered by the fallacy of the Buddha's heart.

Although, after seeing one after another eminent monks, His Holiness was cut off by a jeweled gold knife due to a failed debate, and their Buddha hearts were almost broken.

But there is always a bit of a gap between breaking and breaking.

On the other side, a tall and handsome monk looked at the Tibetan Dharma King with sweat on his forehead expressionlessly, as if he was looking at a pig to be slaughtered:

"Lost!"

"Lost again?"

Hearing this, the fat and fat monk wiped the sweat from his forehead and said dissatisfiedly: "It's less than two sticks of incense, this is not as good as the previous one, the Jokhang Temple is here, I don't think it's very good!" ”

Hearing the fat monk's arrogant words, the surrounding monks glared angrily, but then turned their heads unconsciously under the vicious gaze of the other party.

This monk from the East said badly, but in fact he was not wrong.

But what can they do?

Not to mention the Jokhang Temple, which was supported by Tubo as a plateau carrying Ding Temple, is Zizhu Temple and Minzhulin Temple. and other ancient temples, among which the Dharma kings, gods and witches could not win over this monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty in the scriptures.

In particular, this monk also unexpectedly understands the rules.

Every time he visited the temple, he would present several Sanskrit classics in exchange, not for the treasures in the temple but for the most popular scriptures, and then outside the temple by a few of his disciples to build a temporary stone house, study for more than a few days and months before visiting the temple, with the plateau esoteric scriptures for debate.

According to the oldest rules of Esoteric Buddhism, the loser is beheaded.

And the outrageous thing happened, from Zizhu Temple to Minzhulin Temple, from Minzhulin Temple to Jokhang Temple, dozens of Dharma kings, large and small, lost on their own classics and were cut off by people.

During this period, no one has tried to change the scriptures and restrict all kinds of strict rules such as time, but even if he is only given half a day's effort, this ordinary Dongtu monk can be speechless when he can only read through a classic, and the archmage who has studied hard for decades will be speechless.

Then there was another great head, accompanied by gushing blood, dripping down on the square.

As for the rest. Well, can the monks say that they wanted to disturb the mind with the help of the monk's disciples, but instead because of the failure of the debate, their own monks died and injured hundreds of glorious deeds?

Behind closed doors?

That won't work either.

The great monk once said that if the high monks do not argue the Dharma, then the poor monks will also make a fist.

Then the entire temple, even the Bodhisattva Venerables were rubbed, and the treasure tent of the Jokhang Temple was still hanging on the prayer wheel at this time

Even the Dharma Protector didn't dare to squeak, what did they, the monks, dare to say?

At this time, the Dongtu monk, who had closed his eyes slightly since the beginning of the debate, and indifferently asked questions, opened his eyes for a long time, and looked at the monk in front of him who was sweating profusely, but he couldn't answer, he sighed lightly: "Bodhisattva, you lost again!" ”

"This is the third time you've lost to the poor monk!"

Before the words fell, the time in the Jokhang Temple suddenly froze, and in the desperate or helpless eyes of the monks, a voice that ordinary people could not perceive sounded in the field: "Xuanzang, you need to know that the Buddhism of Tubo is not the same as the Buddhism of the Tang Dynasty and Lingshan, and the compassion is not."

Without waiting for the Buddha light on his head and the solemn Dharma King finished speaking, Xuanzang directly interrupted the other party: "Bodhisattva, you have violated the rules, the opportunity has passed, you should be destroyed at this time, and the matter of persuasion should be argued with the poor monk by a new Venerable, or the Buddhas and the Buddha himself."

If they can argue with the poor monks, then the poor monks are willing to bear the results and understand themselves. But this time you lost to the poor monks, so your Dharma is obviously lacking in Buddha-nature and should be abandoned. ”

"If the Bodhisattva himself is unwilling to perish, the poor monk is also willing to help the Bodhisattva be decent!"

As he spoke, Master Xuanzang gently bowed down and picked up the gem scimitar in front of him that was still stained with the blood of a monk, and the already dazzling blade of the knife was even more dazzling in his rough hands.
