"Uncle Wang, do you know what the Buddha Kingdom of One Leaf Tan is?"

"One Leaf Sandalwood Buddha Country? I've never heard of it. ”

Yang Guang told Yang Shuang all the things he encountered on the road when he came.

After hearing this, Yang Shuang frowned slightly: "It's strange that a group of bandits still came up with such a name, I haven't heard of it before." ”

"Uncle Wang, you are busy with official business, it's normal that you haven't heard of it, Zhang Xiangren, you should have heard of it."

Yang Guang suddenly asked about Yu Dehuai's deputy general Zhang Xiangren, Zhang Xiangren did not show anything abnormal, but replied directly: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin, this group of bandits has not been in trouble in the area of Guannei for a day or two, but it is very slippery like a loach, and it can't be beaten or caught, and the affairs are managed by the local officials' government, so we haven't interfered too much." ”

Yang Guang nodded after listening: "I see, but the bandits are making trouble not far from Yanmen Pass, and I always feel apprehensive in my heart." ”

"Your Highness, you can rest assured, it's just a group of little thieves, it's just that because they live in the mountains, I don't have time to exterminate them."

Yang Guang nodded.

Yang Shuang took Yang Guang to the temporary residence, the number of people in Shuozhou is not small, the market has no planning, it is very messy, and the place where they live is the best house here.

Yang Guang, Yang Shuang and Yang Yichen sat down, and let the others go out first, seeing this situation, Yang Guang understood what Yang Shuang wanted to say to himself.

Sure enough, after Yang Shuang sat down, he said, "Have you noticed that something is wrong in Shuozhou?" ”

"Uncle Wei Wang, I just walked through the two streets of Shuozhou, how do I know that there is anything wrong with it."

"Change into casual clothes and go out with me privately."

"Uncle Wang pretends to go out without an escort, it's too dangerous."

Yang Shuang was stunned for a moment, pointed at Yang Yichen and then pointed at himself: "With the two of us protecting you, what are you worried about?" ”

"Well...... I'm a very careful person, so let Qin Qiong follow. ”

Yang Shuang was speechless: "You are really careful." ”

The four of them changed into civilian clothes, Yang Shuang also changed his appearance a little, and the other three just arrived in Shuozhou today, and there are very few people who know them.

Yang Shuang took them across the street to the most lively market, the chaotic planning made it very messy, but it was also more lively.

There are everything to buy here, mountain goods from the north and south, all kinds of precious silk and burlap put together, looking at the antique jade in the small store is also worth a lot, as if any corner can take out any treasure.

Yang Guang looked around, it is the norm to be pushed and crowded, and the market here is too hot.

After finding a store to sit down and eat something, Yang Shuang asked, "How is it?" Do you see what's wrong? ”

"The market is lively, ordinary small cities can't afford to consume those expensive goods, and there are a lot of Turkic and Western Regions goods here, many fur styles are different from the Great Sui style, I haven't seen Turkic fur, but I guess it should be."

Yang Shuang nodded: "Well, there are a lot of Turkic items here, and it is not uncommon for these border cities to have foreign goods, but such a large-scale existence is nothing more than two situations." ”

"First, plundered, plundered the Turkic territories and obtained their things, but this is impossible, there is no news of our dynasty plundering the Turkic cities so far."

"Then it can only be the second, there is a way to trade with the Turks in private, which leads to a large number of goods entering Shuozhou, and those goods from the Western Regions should also come from the Turks, and these goods should be relatively cheap, and they will flow into the customs from the traders here."

After listening to this, Yang Shuang said: "Your Majesty said that the King of Jin has an abnormal intuition about the affairs of Shang Jia, so I thought about giving it a try, I have observed the things I found for several days, and you can see it at a glance, what Your Majesty said is true." ”

"Uncle Wei Wang, I have the right to praise me as you."

After a few jokes, Yang Guang continued: "Uncle Wang, I said before that in the Yiye Tan Buddha Kingdom, they were arrested by us today, and they used Turkic scimitars. ”

"Oh? The Turkic scimitars used by the bandits of the Great Sui? ”

"Well, this is where I'm worried, I don't know if this group of people made their own scimitars or bought them, if they bought it, then the matter is really big, swords and armor are forbidden to trade, and I'm afraid it won't be innocent to enter Yanmen Pass from Turkic trade."

Yang Shuang said solemnly: "I didn't let the guards of Yanmen Pass and others know about this matter." ”

"No, I told Uncle Wang today, and the four people present have heard my guess."

Yang Shuang said worriedly: "Yanmen Pass has been a throat fortress for many years, if there is something wrong with Yanmen Pass, it will endanger the Central Plains, there can be no problems, and we came to Shuozhou to defend against the Turks, the Turks do not know their internal intelligence leakage, once Yanmen Pass is really connected with the Turks, fighting in Shuozhou, we have become enemies before and after, and we are locked in the valley." ”

The military consciously let Yang Shuang know that this would be a mortal situation, and immediately made a decision: "King Jin, you have to check whether there is really a situation of trade with the Turkic private market." ”

"Well, the Turks don't know when they will come over, according to the fortifications of Shuozhou, if the Turks really attack, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to resist, if there are still spies who leak the information, our army is in a critical situation."

"I will go to Yanmen Pass to deal with possible problems in military affairs, as for the matter of the private market, I will leave it to you, you and I will investigate in both directions at the same time, as soon as possible, time waits for no one."

"Well, Uncle Wang, I still have a few prisoners in my hands, I will investigate this matter in the name of exterminating the bandits, Uncle Wang, you should be careful when investigating the defenders."

"The same goes for you."

As soon as the news of the two converged, they noticed something different and immediately separated.

When it was dark, Yang Guang came to the dungeon of his residence, and the monks and soldiers of the Buddha Kingdom who were caught at this time were imprisoned here.

In order to avoid leaking the news, Yang Guang only asked his most trusted guard, Li Feng, to interrogate them.

After a series of humane means such as whipping, someone finally spoke.

A few people are not trained dead soldiers, so it is naturally impossible to resist the punishment, but among them, those who have extremely firm beliefs would rather die than speak, this is what Yang Guang is most worried about.

The one who opened his mouth was one of the people who had his leg broken by Zhou Wu with a wild boar trap before.

At this time, he fell to the ground in pain, clutching his legs and wailing.

"Li Feng, how did you interrogate him?"

"I didn't interrogate, I just saw that his wound was serious, Sun Zhenren said that salt can be disinfected, so I sprinkled some."

"Huh? You rub salt in someone's wounds. ”

"It's not much, Your Highness should not be able to die without worry."

The man was pulled to kneel in front of Yang Guang, and Yang Guang asked, "What's your name?" ”

"I ...... My name is Wang Er. ”

"You group of bandits are called the Buddha Kingdom of One Leaf, right?"

As soon as he said that the eyes of the person in the country of Yiye Tan Buddha changed: "Don't call us bandits, we are the followers of the reincarnation Buddha, and the reincarnation Buddha will bless all its believers, although it is bitter in this life, to become a Buddha." ”

Yang Guang scratched his head awkwardly, this group of people was not lightly affected by PUA.

"Alright, alright, let me ask you, where did you get your scimitar?"

"It was issued by the abbot, and all the monks and soldiers holding the Buddha sword are the arms of the Buddha, and the scimitar will give us endless power."

Yang Guang's black line at the end: "Who is your abbot?" ”

"Who is the abbot?"

"Our abbot is the second disciple of the Buddha of Samsarara, the first tear of the Buddha's left eye, the embodiment of kindness and compassion, he can get rid of calamities and diseases, he will eliminate all injustice in the world."

"If you talk like that again, I'll kill you right now."

Yang Guang couldn't listen to this abnormal nonsense, and directly pulled out a knife to threaten, and the timid Wang Er immediately stopped talking.

"When did you join the One Leaf Sandalwood Buddha Kingdom?"

"Half a year ago, I used to be from other cottages, but the country of Yiye Tan Buddha broke through our cottage, and I surrendered, and later under the inspiration of the reincarnation Buddha, I became a monk."

He only joined half a year ago, and his faith was not so firm, so Yang Guang could interrogate him.

"How many of you are there?"

"There are more than 200 monks and soldiers, I don't know the total number, maybe five or six hundred."

This scale is already very large, and the hidden dangers are endless.

"What other main people in your cottage besides your so-called abbot?"

"There are also karema nuns who are in charge of all the priests and preachers, and there are also the seven arhats who are responsible for teaching us monks and soldiers."

Continue to ask, as a low-level monk Wang Er didn't know much, Yang Guang said to Li Feng: "Stay for a good life, don't be lazy in eating and drinking, and go to grab medicine for the injuries on your body, and let him lead the way to find the Buddha Kingdom in the future." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

……

Yang Guang was a little apprehensive on his first night in Shuozhou, but he didn't expect that he would also have insomnia, so he walked out of the door and looked at the starry sky.

Yuan Tiantian came behind him: "Why can't Your Highness sleep?" ”

"Well, I always feel apprehensive in my heart."

"Your Highness, the slave has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?"

"Do you see anything again?"

"Yes, Your Highness's face."

Yang Guang was a little puzzled: "Haven't you seen my face a long time ago?" ”

"People's physiognomy will also change with time and state, the closer you get to Shuozhou, the more gloomy Your Highness's face will be, and the slave maid is afraid that His Highness will encounter a disaster of blood and light."

"Myself?"

Yuan Tiantian shook his head: "It's not His Highness himself, but His Highness may encounter a disaster of blood light, or the disaster of blood light may endanger His Highness, and please be careful recently." ”

"We're going to fight, can't it be a bloody disaster?"

While speaking, Yang Guang hugged Yuan Tiantian: "It's okay tonight, let's talk about it." ”

Yuan Tiantian broke free slightly, and said shyly: "Your Highness, it's inconvenient today." ”

"Huh?"

"Is this what you yourself call the Bloody Plague? Are you counting? ”

"Your Highness!? That's not what I'm talking about. ”
