Good morning! Three Kingdoms Workers Section 113
The officials and gentlemen of Gwangling County had recently gathered here to entertain his guests from afar with warmth and friendliness, and wanted to wash him away with wine and delicacies, and they had heard of his good name and were almost eager to associate with him.
Now they finally realized what kind of person Zhen Rong was, but they couldn't spread the news.
Head down, feet up, they were dragged out one by one, leaving long blood marks on the tiles. Occasionally, one or two people died not so willingly, and their fingers would move slightly, so the wrestlers of Zhenrong would inevitably make up for it.
But on this cool and beautiful summer night, Zhao Yu and his subordinates were not the only sad and lamentable people in this city. Guangling City is so rich and rich in goods, when Zhao Yu welcomed Zhen into the city, he told Zhen Rong how rich and stable he was under his rule, and wanted to let this distinguished guest know how diligent and loving he was.
But Zhen Rong was thinking about something else.
He didn't think there was anything to be nostalgic about in this world, and he didn't think there was anything to boast about when he ruled in prosperity and tranquility—those common people knew about the pleasures of the world, and they wouldn't expect much from the Buddha kingdom.
It is sinful for the people of Guangling to be obsessed with wealth, but wealth is not sinful, and he thinks that when he chooses a place to settle, he needs this wealth to build a more grand and gorgeous Futu Temple, and he can also spread the will of the Buddha in all directions.
Therefore, after slaughtering all the people in the county guard, Zhenrong ordered the soldiers to loot in Guangling City for him and the Buddha country in his heart.
But his plans were temporarily interrupted.
"Dispose of the corpse and clean the blood," he calmly instructed his subordinates, "and tell him not to set fire to the crowd everywhere, for in a few days the messenger of the Tao Envoy will come, and I will hold a banquet here for her." ”
When Lu Hangyu and Tian Yu came to Guangling County with these two hundred soldiers, half of May had already passed.
Guangling County, which has not experienced the war, is lush, with men and women spread wildly, and acres of farmland and valleys, which are pleasing to look at.
When she came to the city gate, Zhenrong was already waiting there.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties, tall, with a good face, fair skin, a very neatly combed beard, and standing at the gate of the city in a faded muslin red robe, which made people feel good at the sight.
She and Tian Yu jumped off the horse to greet him, she claimed to be a partial general under Liu Bei, but Zhen Rong still called her "Lang Jun" very politely, and did not despise her young age and low status, so her favorability was a little higher.
Compared with Xiaopei and Pengcheng, who have experienced several wars, this Guangling county is obviously more prosperous, and even makes her feel a trace of the shadow of Luoyang. Especially here is already in the boundary of Jiangsu, the air is humid, and the dust on the ground is not so easy to fly, but there are always long grass and flowers on the roadside, which looks even more pleasing to the eye than Luoyang.
Guangling Taishou left the city in a hurry two days ago and went to Yandu, so he could not come to receive them. But it doesn't matter, originally they came to look for Zhenrong, and besides, Zhenrong also temporarily lived in the county guard's mansion, so there was no inconvenience. On the fly in the ointment, there was something strange about the city, which she didn't know if it emanated from this city or from the retinue.
She had been through several wars and several massacres of cities, and the two were intimately linked, so she was especially familiar with the smell—the smell of blood, the smell of burnt, and the smell of rotting corpses.
This bustling city should not have this kind of smell, and Xiapi has not experienced war, so the people of Zhenrong should not emit this smell either. She wondered, was it because she had been fighting too many battles lately, so she was a little suspicious?
"What is Lang Jun thinking?" Tian Yu took a step closer, "Looking a little dazed?" ”
"I wonder if you don't have to accompany me into the city," she whispered, "and you can go and see the soldiers." ”
Her words were abrupt and unreasonable, so Tian Yu glanced at her a little strangely.
"This can't be done, if you are left alone, I am afraid that you will say something nonsense, which will anger Zheng Boxi, if you and I are bombarded out of the city, wouldn't it be ugly?"
She's not afraid...... Never mind.
Lu Hangyu beckoned, summoned a sergeant, and whispered a few words, asking him to give orders to go down, watch the soldiers, don't walk around, don't drink alcohol, and be on guard at all times.
Zhenrong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and glanced back at her.
The banquet takes place in the evening, of course.
Taishou Zhao Yu's reception room is really good, not to mention the complicated patterns on the bricks, the white wall and Zhu Zhu are also covered with fabric, called "wall clothes", she probed her head to look at the fabric, it is definitely called "the world of pictures, the category is born".
However, the fly in the ointment is that the room is not very clean.
For example, in the dead corner of the base of the vermilion pillar, there is still a little blood stain that has not been cleaned, and a trace of scars left by the knife and axe can occasionally be seen on the pattern of the blue bricks.
If the fabrics were removed, she thought to herself, this guest room might look like it again.
But the upper seat of the Zhu Rong sat so steadily, his back was very straight, his eyes were so quiet, and he stretched out his hand to the wine cup calmly and freely.
"The two of you have worked the journey," the Xiapi minister smiled and raised his wine cup, "please drink this cup first." ”
She licked a little of the wine, and there was nothing strange except for the smell of blood, but she still dipped it in her mouth and put it down. Tian Yu didn't notice it, and drank the wine full.
Zhen Rong's gaze swirled leisurely on the two of them, first glanced at Lu Xuanyu's young figure who was not as weak as the crown, and then glanced at Tian Yu, a young man in his early twenties, and then stroked his beard with a smile.
"What are you visiting for?"
She glanced at Tian Yu, and the latter spoke.
"Tao makes the king look forward to the return of the country for a long time."
Zhen Rong sneered, "Tao Gongzu admires his reputation on the outside, but he is not true on the inside, he wants me to return to Pi, do I want to go back?" ”
Tian Kai's brows furrowed, "Let the monarch treat the country with sincerity, how can you say 'the inside is not true'?" ”
"Cao Cao's second attack on Xuzhou is all because of Tao Qian! He could not defend the land, and he was not worthy of his name. Zhen Rong said slowly, "I couldn't bear to see Pi Liangbei being slaughtered by Cao Bing, so I took them south. ”
The atmosphere began to look more and more wrong.
"The thief Cao is powerful, and the people of Xuzhou were slaughtered by him, not because of Tao Zhijun!" Tian Yu said-for-tat, "The cannibal monarch should be loyal to the monarch, how can he escape when the monarch is suffering?" ”
Zhen Rong reacted to this remark, and he stood up and looked at them both condescendingly.
"What kind of lord is he, and how can I be a vassal to such a mortal person!"
This sentence was beyond Tian Yu's comprehension, so he was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean, Prime Minister?" ”
"I am a Dharma Tibetan bhikshu under the Buddha's throne, and I have led sentient beings through immeasurable eons for a long time, and what do you know," Zhenrong stretched out his finger and compared it in mid-air, "But, you are fortunate enough to be able to cross for me." ”
His voice was ethereal, with a mysterious and mysterious taste, and with his strange gestures, a group of strong men walked out from behind him.
…… It's all the kind of wrestler who wears a pair of pants on the upper half of his body and a pair of pants on the lower body, but he has everything in his hand, some with a knife, some with an axe, some with a pestle, and some with a halberd.
This group of wrestlers was also expressionless, surrounding them.
Tian Yu was both shocked and angry, and stood up suddenly, "Rong! You turned out to be a Hongmen banquet! ”
The red-clothed layman on the throne had a pure and compassionate face, "I'm here to lead you—"
"And then?" She asked a little curiously, "Can I go to the Buddha Kingdom after receiving the guide?" ”
Zhen Rong thought for a moment, and he even temporarily stopped the movement of the team of wrestlers approaching them, and then announced in a low voice.
"This is the last days, only when the Buddha of the last days comes, can I see the Buddha country, and I am not responsible for receiving it, whether you can see the Buddha of the last days, you must wait for the completion of your practice——"
She felt that she had almost heard it, and she also stood up with Tian Yu and interrupted Zhen Rong's preaching.
"Guangling guards Zhao Yu too much," she asked, "and you crossed it too?" ”
Zhen Rong was stunned for a moment, smiled and nodded, he seemed to be very proud of the killing a few days ago, and even wanted to say a few more words when he heard the young man ask.
But she wasn't prepared to give him such a chance.
"I'll let you see it today," she pulled out her black blade, "what is the Buddha of the Last Days?" ”
This sentence blasphemed the Buddha, so Zhenrong was originally very angry.
His face sank, and he gave his Dharma Protectors a look, and then the group of people temporarily let Tian Yu go, and they all went towards the yellow-mouthed child who didn't know whether to live or die, and dared to slander the Buddha!
But the young man's sword was faster than his mage-protector! Every sword he struck into the chest of the wrestler like thunder, and without even waiting for a moment or looking at it, he □□ stabbed into the second person! And then there's the third person! The fourth person! The fifth person! The Sixth Man!
His Dharma protectors were all influenced by Buddhism and had never been timid, but at this time, they were forcibly frightened by this young man's swordsmanship and took a step back, and he didn't dare to step forward again!
In this square inch, in the realm of a moment, she thinks of life, and she thinks of death. The sword wind is extremely strong, and there is no mercy or hesitation!
Zhen Rong's eyes widened in horror, and he subconsciously took a step back, he couldn't admit it, how could he admit it?!
Could it really be the Buddha of the last days?! Could it be that the Buddha he imagined to save the world by destroying the world was right in front of his eyes?!
He only took a step back.
There was only time to take a step back, and all the twenty-four Dharma Protectors under him had been killed by this young man.
The night breeze flickered, and the candle flame flickered for a moment.
The boy stood in the middle of the hall, plainly clothed, not stained with blood, and he shook the sharp weapon at will, so that even his long sword was as clean as fresh snow.
As he slowly stepped forward, Zhenrong finally knelt down.
The red-clothed layman clasped his palms together, and his eyes contained tears of piety.
"Today, I can actually see the incarnation of the Buddha who destroyed the world," he said in a choked voice, "It is not in vain that the disciples have worked hard to spread the Buddha over the years......
The Buddha of Destruction raised his long sword, and when he heard his words, he stopped the sword wind.
He waited and waited, and raised his head in great trepidation, wanting to ask why the Buddha didn't cross him.
But the Buddha looked at him with an unfathomable gaze.
[This man is mentally ill, right? Lu Hangyu shook the black blade in his brain in horror, [You hurry up and make a move! 】
After a long time, the voice of the black blade's lack of strength sounded, [You let me study him first......]
Chapter 124
Zhenrong, a madman, will he kill or not?
Guangling Taishou Zhao Yu treated him as a guest and welcomed him into the city, just because Guangling City was rich, so that Zhen Rong was greedy, not to mention killing Zhao Yu, even the officials and celebrities in the city were killed together. Therefore, from the simple point of view of killing people to pay for life, there is no problem here to chop death with a sword.
So, what are the consequences of killing him?
Won't the Lord Guild rep her? She didn't think there was anything to worry about;
Will Tao Qian blame her? She didn't really care about it, either;
Cao Bao? Xu Tan? And those messy Danyang generals? She doesn't care about it anymore!
Lu Xuanyu quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and found that the biggest problem was not whether anyone complained about this madman after killing Zhenrong, but that he brought more than 10,000 people out of Xiapi, that team was vast and spectacular, and many of them were brainwashed by him, if he was killed now, it would be very troublesome to bring these people back to Xiapi.
They could riot or scatter, and neither of them was what she wanted to see.
But the problem is that even if she doesn't kill Zhenrong, it's hard to trick him into working for herself, right?
Zhen Rong was still kneeling there, her palms folded, still with a look of anticipation with tears in her eyes, waiting for her to kill him with a sword and let him go to the "Buddha country" in his mind.
[What to do?] She muttered secretly in her heart, [At the beginning, everyone thought that as long as they persuaded Zhenrong to go back, these people would follow back, and no one knew that he was crazy like this. 】
[Since you have already weighed the pros and cons, why don't you come again?] After skipping the difficult question of "what kind of creature is Zhen Rong", Black Blade's tone became much more relaxed, [Wouldn't it be better to classify the baggage and goods he carried, and the people who followed him, and after prioritizing them, then classify the human resources you can dispose of, and send them to take over these tasks? 】
She thought for a moment, and then secretly glanced at Tian Yu.
Tian Yu naturally wore a sword, and when he saw those wrestlers coming around, he also got up and drew his sword, his eyebrows were cold, and he had a rather complicated psychological struggle in his heart.
His first reaction was that he must not be able to get out alive tonight, because it was twenty-four wrestlers with sharp weapons, and even if he could kill one or two people, could he kill them all?
Of course, there is also Lu Hangyu by his side, and it is also a famous swordsman in Plains City, but the world is so big, what can a lonely, poor and remote plain town represent? The Montenegrin Army was originally a group of rogues, but they were not frightened away by this young man's momentum of seeing death as home?
Therefore, Tian Yu felt that he must die here, he could have returned to Youzhou with Zilong, returned to his mother, and calmly reappeared under Gongsun Zhan, instead of throwing his young life here.
