Chapter Forty-Eight: Reopening the Forbidden Arts
The Shin Hayabusa that flew out of the Yamen of the Guard of Rimya Prefecture soon arrived in Kyoto.
It all the way down to the courtyard of the commander.
The brocade guard who was on duty that day took the falcon, took off the letter from the falcon's leg, and handed it over to a special person to raise.
Then he turned and knocked on the door of the commander's room.
The voice of the commander came from the room.
"Enter!"
Hearing this, Jin Yiwei cautiously pushed open the door and walked into the room.
In the room.
Behind the desk.
Cao Xiang, the commander of the capital, sat at the table, holding a case file in his hand and was carefully examining it.
As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he is also the thirteenth brother of the current emperor.
He controlled all the Jinyi guards in the Great Wei Territory, and few case files could be handed to his desk.
But the case file that can enter his eyes must be a shocking case!
However, there is a special place, that is, the new thousand households who have just been sent to Youzhou.
Left Road.
Only his letters can go straight to the front of the commander's case.
Jin Yiwei whispered to Cao Xiang: "My lord, there is news from Youzhou. ”
Hearing this, Cao Xiang raised his head slightly, revealing a face that looked extremely resolute.
There is a scar on his left eye, resembling a sinuous body, that extends from near the center of the eyebrow to the lower eyelid.
It was when he went out on a mission in the early years that he was injured by a worldly demon who broke in.
It was also after that time that he realized that the current luck of Dawei may be passing away.
In this world, there are demons again.
He beckoned, "Send it up." ”
Hearing this, Jin Yiwei stepped forward respectfully and carefully placed the letter in his hand on the table.
He then bowed out of the room and closed the door carefully.
After the brocade guard left, Cao Xiang picked up the letter on the table, opened it and read it confidently.
After a while, Cao Xiao's brows furrowed, and there was a chill in his eyes.
He muttered to himself, "Yin Si Soul? These ghost things recorded in the ancient books of the royal family actually appeared again. ”
He read the letter carefully.
In addition to the basic situation of Youzhou, and the appearance of the soul of the Yin Division.
He wanted to hear the most about the Dao seed, which was not recorded in the slightest.
This kind of thing was specially told by the ancestor to him.
and told him that the place where the Dao seed appeared was Youzhou.
That's why he sent that young Qianhu with great potential to Youzhou to garrison.
After a long time, Cao Xiang stuffed the letter in his hand into his arms, and then left the mansion and headed in the direction of the palace.
When he was about to enter the palace, he also met the car of the national teacher Pudu Cihang outside the palace walls.
Pudu Cihang sat on a lotus platform carried by several small novices.
looked at Cao Xiang who came over, and immediately said with a smile: "The commander is going to enter the palace?" ”
Cao Xiang said coldly: "What? What do you think? ”
Pudu Cihang said with a smile: "The commander is joking, the poor monk is also going to enter the palace, I just want to ask the commander if he wants to go with the poor monk?" ”
Cao Xiang opened his mouth and said: "The status of the national teacher is noble, and Cao is not worthy of walking with the national teacher." ”
After finishing speaking, he walked directly towards the palace wall.
On Pudu Cihang's side, a little novice said with a cold look in his eyes: "This Cao Xiang does not respect the Buddha, and he has a way to die." ”
Hear the words.
Pudu Cihang said with a smile: "I am a monk, we should be compassionate, and enter the palace quickly, Your Majesty is still waiting to listen to the poor monks talk about the Dharma and explain the Buddha's principles." ”
"Today's saint, I am really a destined person of my Buddha, and I have specially built a Buddhist hall in the palace wall."
"It's really fun!"
The little novices responded one after another, and then carried the lotus platform and walked towards the palace.
The other side.
Cao Xiang walked in the palace, recalling the Pudu Cihang he met outside the palace wall before, and his face became more and more gloomy.
Since this Pudu Cihang was enshrined as a national teacher.
His Majesty rarely went to the early court, and every day he either listened to Pudu Cihang's lectures on Buddhism, or indulged in Buddhist scriptures.
He did not listen to the advice of the ministers.
There were even ministers who wanted to threaten to resign, but His Majesty still let it go, which made a lot of gossip in the court.
But what made him feel a little strange was the idea of the old ancestor in the depths of the palace.
Because the national teacher's edict was proposed by the ancestors.
It's just that why did his old man let this centipede essence into Kyoto?
You know, in the records of the royal classics back then.
In order to expel those demons into the deep mountains and old forests and overseas islands, Dawei didn't know how many soldiers' lives he had paid.
The ancestors even used the dragon veins of mountains and rivers and the luck of humanity to unite with the Great Wei National Movement to suppress the world.
It is imperative to expel all the evil evil ways from Great Wei.
But right now, there is actually a monster who has become the national teacher of the Great Wei, which is really ridiculous.
Ancestor, what are you thinking in your heart?
Soon.
Cao Xiang came to the main hall where His Majesty is now, and the eunuch guarding the door immediately went in to report it.
With the sound of communication in the main hall.
Cao Xiang walked directly into the main hall, and as soon as he stepped into the main hall, he was completely shocked by what he saw.
I saw that in the originally glorious hall, I don't know when a golden body of a Buddha was erected.
It was supposed to be the appearance of a sleeping palace, but now it has been built into a Buddhist hall, and the incense is prosperous.
The entire hall is filled with quaint scents.
The eunuchs and maids in the palace all shaved their hairs one by one, pretending to be novices and nuns.
There are even unfavored concubines, who dress up as nuns in order to please His Majesty.
His Majesty sat under the golden body of the Buddha, holding the concubine dressed as a nun in one hand and knocking on the wooden fish at will with the other.
After seeing Cao Xiang come in, he said with a smile: "Thirteenth brother, how do you see the transformation of my Buddha hall in the second brother?" ”
Cao Xiang's face was a little ugly, and he reported the matter of Youzhou.
Hearing the news that the soul of Yin Si had entered the yang world, Emperor Cao Yan not only did not get angry, but said curiously: "The road between Yin Si and Yang is open?" ”
Cao Xiang opened his mouth and said: "It's just that there are Jinyi Wei Qianhu who found the Yin Si soul in Youzhou, and it only appeared for a moment, and the minister estimated that it should not be completely clear." ”
When Cao Yan heard this, she said with pity on her face: "That thirteenth brother knows how to enter the Yin Division." ”
Cao Xiang frowned and said, "I don't know, why is Your Majesty asking this?" ”
Cao Yan said with a yearning face: "I heard that there is a bewitching female ghost king in the Yin Division, with a peerless demeanor, and she is alone as the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, I don't know if there is one more Yin Si beauty in the harem?" ”
Cao Xiao heard His Majesty speak, and his face instantly darkened.
Ignoring Cao Yan's question, he directly asked if he would spread the ban technique of the year.
Now although Youzhou Jinyiwei has temporarily recovered some vitality, if there is no suitable method, it must not last long.
Not only Youzhou, but also all parts of Great Wei have begun to show signs of demonic chaos.
With the current strength of Jinyiwei, it is difficult to quell the chaos.
Cao Yan was inevitably a little disappointed when she saw that Cao Xiang didn't reply.
Just mentioning the forbidden technique, he said: "This matter, you still need the nod of the ancestor, if the ancestor agrees, then you will take the lead and let the Jinyi guard change his appearance." ”
Hearing Cao Yan speak, Cao Xiang responded respectfully, and then walked directly towards the depths of the palace.
Not long after Cao Xiang left, Pudu Cihang also came to the front of the main hall.
Cao Yan immediately said in a loud voice: "The national teacher, come in and take a look, what else is missing in this Buddha hall?" ”
When Pudu Cihang heard this, he immediately walked into the hall with a smile.
And in the depths of the palace at this moment.
Cao Xiang was standing outside the royal ancestral hall with a respectful face, and talked about the affairs of Youzhou to the inside of the ancestral hall.
After a long time, an old voice came from inside the ancestral hall: "Since this is the case, then pass on those forbidden arts, and you are in charge of the Jinyi Guard, the old man is very relieved." ”
When Cao Xiang heard this, he immediately responded.
Then he hesitated for a moment, and then spoke again: "Old ancestor, is what the second brother has done recently a little too ......?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard the old ancestor in the ancestral hall say: "It's okay, you can go down!" ”
Hearing this, Cao Xiang sighed deeply, and then walked directly outside.
Inside the ancestral hall.
An old man with a wrinkled face and gray hair, like a piece of rotten wood, sat cross-legged in the middle of the field.
His body was filled with a desolate and decaying aura, like an ordinary old man who was about to die.
In his hand, he held a small Dan furnace and kept gently stroking it with his hand.
In the Dan furnace, wisps of smoke wafted out and were instantly inhaled into the nasal cavity.
The old man's face suddenly became a little more ruddy.
Suddenly, he glanced up at the hall where Cao Yan was, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
It's just that there are too many wrinkles on his face, so the smile looks rather hideous.
The old man muttered to himself: "Come on, wait until you eat more, eat more......"
That day.
The commander of the Jinyi Guard, Cao Xiang, opened the stone gate located in the mountain behind the royal family, which had been silent for hundreds of years.
He summoned the royal children of the Jinyi Guard, as well as some of his henchmen, to remove all the things in the stone gate.
Then he began to record it uniformly, and classified and copied it, and ordered someone to compile it into the merit exchange list of Jinyiwei.
Subsequently, the most elite craftsmen in the Great Wei were summoned and a new department was established.
Specially create some weapons and equipment that belong to ancient books.
A few days later, the first batch of things that were created was led by a thousand households, and they quickly headed towards Youzhou.
……
In Youzhou.
Zuo Dao was in the Jinyi Guard's yamen, listening to the reports of his subordinates, and nodded slightly from time to time.
During this time, I don't know why.
There seem to be a lot fewer evil and harmful incidents in Youzhou, and even Zuo Dao has a delusion that "the big one is coming".
But overall, this is undoubtedly a good thing for the people of Youzhou.
And there is another good thing for their brocade guards, that is, in Kyoto, the commander has sent a message to inform them to reopen the door of forbidden arts.
Presumably, it won't be long before those forbidden magic powers that belong to the martial arts to subdue demons and eliminate demons will be sent to Youzhou.
In this way, their Youzhou Jinyiwei can be regarded as an additional boost.
Just when Zuo Dao breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Du Wanshan walking from outside the door with a solemn face.
When he came to the front of the hall, he arched his hand and said, "My lord, something has happened." ”
