Yang Guang looked at this group of people suspiciously, the dress of the Buddhist monks, and the behavior of the bandits.

"Who are you?"

In the face of Yang Guang's inquiry, no one answered, and Laihu'er was short-tempered and extremely emotionally unstable, so he rushed to one of them with a furious face and kicked the door in front of him.

The man was kicked to the ground with a large shoe print on his face.

Lai Hu'er shouted angrily: "What did His Royal Highness the King of Jin ask you? Dumb one by one? ”

Only then did the arrested person know that the person in front of him was the king of Jin in the current dynasty.

"My Buddha is merciful, for my Buddha, kill the rebel king."

The person who shouted was tied hand and foot, and he wanted to attack Yang Guang with his head, of course, he could only fall and eat.

Yang Guang knew from looking at him that this guy was not lightly punished by PUA, and these brainwashing methods common to messy religions looked like he was not lightly ill.

In this era, the people had a low level of education, and there were many ignorant people, and there were many people who were fooled.

Yang Guang has a headache, this kind of person is the most troublesome, depending on the situation, what he wants to ask, the other party should not be honest and cooperate to answer his own questions, after all, their "faith" is very firm.

Just when Yang Guang was at a loss, Qin Qiong brought back two captives with broken legs and a homeless teenager.

Yang Guangxian still blamed and said: "Qin Qiong, without my order, you will not chase after you in the future, I know that you are strong in martial arts, but be careful." ”

"It's Your Highness, Qin Qiong knows that it's wrong."

"It's okay, how can one of these three captives be sound? Isn't it tied either? ”

"I'm not a prisoner."

Qin Qiong hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, this chivalrous warrior is called Zhou Wu, he ambushed this person from the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom in the mountains and forests before, and he just helped the last general, I think His Highness should want to meet such a chivalrous knight, so he took him to meet His Highness." ”

"Zhou Wu quickly saluted His Royal Highness King Jin."

"Grass...... Grass people, Zhou Wu, have seen ...... Your Highness. ”

Zhou Wu obviously didn't often salute awkwardly, and Yang Guang didn't care, so he asked out of vigilance: "Why did you ambush this group of people in the mountains and forests, Qin Qiong, what did you just say they were called?" ”

Zhou Wu replied instead of Qin Qiong: "Yiye Tan Buddha Country, in the past few years, the gang of mountain bandits in the front mountain don't know where to get this organization, all of them have shaved their heads and believed in Buddhism, but what they did was not bad, I and a few friends couldn't look at it, and today I know that they came here to rob, but I don't dare to fight hard only with me, so I ambush in the mountains and forests, and I can kill one by one." ”

"You have the courage at a young age, are you from here?"

"My family is in Shuozhou City, my parents thought I was disobedient and ran out, I couldn't get used to this group of mountain bandits bullying the people, so I made some friends on the rivers and lakes, and I came to stop the mountain bandits when I got the news, but the mountain bandits have a large number of people and good weapons, we can only hide in the dark and do something a little, and the mountain bandits are still wanted to kill us."

Yang Guang nodded and smiled when he heard this: "I can't see that I am very bold at a young age, our trip is to go to Shuozhou City, how about it?" Want to go with us? ”

This is a local, and dare to ambush mountain bandits, some chivalrous and some bold, Yang Guang wants to better understand Shuozhou City, which is a good object to understand.

Zhou Wu looked around at the people around him, and directly rejected Yang Guang's solicitation: "Caomin, you are used to living a ranger-like life, and you can't even salute well, please forgive Your Highness." ”

This is the solicitation of the king of the dynasty, and others can't ask for an opportunity.

Yang Guang was a little surprised when he refused, but he didn't force it.

"Since this is the case, it means that our fate has not arrived, and the twisted melon is not sweet, but I just arrived here, and I am not familiar with the country of the Buddha of Yiye Tan that you said, and the mountain bandits are the people who are troubled, and I hope you know everything."

Speaking of this, Zhou Wu spoke directly.

"There have been mountain bandits in the surrounding area for many years, large and small, repeatedly banned, and they are very well hidden, and the government has been fighting for many years in vain, for the sake of the disaster, but it has not made much noise, but it has changed since three years ago."

"Originally, the head of the largest cottage suddenly began to believe in Buddhism, it seems that a monk from other places let him convert to my Buddha, that mountain calls himself a leaf of sandalwood Buddha country, and gradually many of the surrounding cottages have been merged by him, two months ago another big cottage was merged by him after this area is his family."

Zhou Wu sighed: "What kind of ghost Buddha do you say he believes?" In the past, if you don't believe in Buddhism, you will rob money, food, and occasionally rob people's women, but now I believe in Buddhism, rob money, grab food, rob women, the elderly, children, and men, and rob them to the mountains to be monks. ”

Yang Guang took a closer look, and the people in this village who were robbed of money seemed to be bald, and many of them were freshly shaved.

"Why are they doing this?"

"It's that what a leaf of the Buddha country, very evil, some of the people I know ran back from the cottage, I heard him say, hundreds of people were caught on the mountain, and they were pulled out every day when they were delivered day and night, and chanted scriptures around a Buddha statue, and if they didn't read well, they would be punished, and even every once in a while there was a life sacrifice, and they would sacrifice the living, what kind of fucking ghost Buddha is this."

Zhou Wu, who realized that he was speaking vulgarly, was a little embarrassed and said: "Your Highness, don't be surprised, I'm a rough person, and if I can't speak, it's more ugly, please forgive me." ”

After listening to this simple introduction, Yang Guang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, this Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom seemed to be more dangerous than he expected, and an organization of this nature was far more dangerous than ordinary bandits.

Now the main forces must be concentrated to deal with the Turks, but the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom also has to pay attention to the foreign religions, and now unify the local mountain bandit forces.

And from Zhou Wu's words, this Yiye Tan Buddha country also has the behavior of forcibly developing disciples, people can snatch it away, and if they can't snatch it, they will shave their heads and forcibly take refuge.

If they don't intervene to stop it, these ordinary villagers will not dare to disturb it, and they will probably eventually succumb to their obscenity.

Faith is like a plague, it is contagious.

"Zhou Wu, if you know the specific location of the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, you can tell me."

"I don't know, but some of my friends know, and if Your Highness wants to know, I can ask."

"Good! You help me ask, preferably with a map, or ask your friend if he would like to act as a guide. ”

Zhou Wu was full of enthusiasm for attacking the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, and immediately hugged his fists: "The grass people will go." ”

"Wait."

"What else is the matter with Your Highness?"

"And if you want to come back to me after you go to find someone, you have to ask me where I am first."

Zhou Wu scratched his head, and the enthusiastic young man was a little embarrassed: "Your Highness, how can I find you?" ”

"I'm in Yanmen Pass or Shuozhou City, you can come to find me, you and I are destined, and you are a ranger, how can a ranger not have a sword in his hand, this sword is my usual use, I will give it to you today, and I will show this sword in the coming day and say that it is looking for me."

As he spoke, he threw the sword in his hand to the other party.

Zhou Wu took the sword and couldn't wait to unsheath the sword, looking at the cold light sword, his face was full of joy.

The sword was returned to the sheath, and Zhou Wu hugged his fists again: "Zhou Wu thanks His Royal Highness the King of Jin for the gift of the sword, holding this sword will be a chivalrous and righteous act, and will never insult the feelings of His Royal Highness the King of Jin for giving the sword." ”

Zhou Wu turned around and left, without any stop.

Yang Guangmu sent him away, turned to the few believers of the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom who were arrested, thinking about the performance of these people just now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to ask more questions today, so I simply said: "All of them have been arrested, and they will be taken directly to Yanmen Guan and imprisoned." ”

At this time, the people in this village dared to come out, all with panicked expressions on their faces, and at this time, an old man with shaved hair on his head walked out with two dolls and knelt directly in front of Yang Guang: "The grass people thank Your Highness for your great kindness." ”

In the conversation just now, they also understood that the young general in front of them was King Jin.

As the old man knelt down, the others also knelt down.

"The grass people thank Your Highness for your great kindness."

Facing a group of people kneeling, Yang Guang wanted to help him up, but the old man at the head refused to stand up.

How could Yang Guang not understand, this must be something to ask for, looking around at the houses that had been burned down a lot, and the frightened women and children, he could figure out what he wanted.

Their behavior is tantamount to putting Yang Guang on the moral high ground, so that Yang Guang has to take care of them.

But Yang Guang can also understand.

After all, who wouldn't want to live?

Yang Guang encountered this matter today, and it is impossible to expose it, for the most ordinary people, these mountain bandits are like the gangrene of the bones, if they have always existed, they will continue to directly infringe on them.

"Come to protect the child."

"The minister is here."

"Give you one hundred and fifty elite soldiers, just touch the row in the mountains and fields around here, and if you encounter a person from the Buddha Country, you can catch it, and if you can't catch it, you will kill it, don't be reckless when you encounter things that can't be handled, report more, and don't go deep alone, your safety is also very important."

There are quite a few opinions about Yang Guang leaving him here to protect his children, but he still responded.

Staying to protect the child is not the best choice, Yang Guang thought about leaving Qin Qiong behind, but Qin Qiong is too young, and he has seen it all the way, he can't convince the public, and in the end, the trade-off is to stay with the future Hu'er, the murderer will be right to the villain.

Leaving a small part of the army, Yang Guangjun's army continued to move forward, the road was small, so the line was long.

Yang Yichen rode a horse beside Yang Guang and asked: "Your Highness, why do you want to keep people in that small mountain village, the mountains are rugged, and leaving some people can only protect a small area." ”

"The innocent people can't say that they don't care, this place is not far from Yanmen Pass, I have a very bad premonition."

"What a hunch."

"Have you seen their weapons? That kind of scimitar is not like a weapon commonly used by the Great Sui. ”

Yang Yichen nodded and smiled with satisfaction at this time: "Your Highness has a keen intuition, it is the scimitar of the Turkic cavalry." ”
