The sun was high, the banquet was getting better, Xu Qi'an saluted for a round, left the table on the pretext of going to the toilet, returned to the study, and considered how to face the envoys of the Western Regions Buddhism.

Zhong Li sat at the square table, bowed his head, and ate his meal in small bites.

Based on the homework done during this time, he believed that the envoys of Buddhism in the Western Regions had two purposes for visiting the capital this time.

The primary purpose was, of course, to understand the beginning and end of the Sambo case, and it was also the main purpose of their trip.

"I just don't know if the bald donkeys only want to understand, or if they want to live in the capital for a long time and track down the whereabouts of the Shenshu monk........ This, presumably, will have to wait for them to figure out the situation before making a decision. Xu Qi'an turned the brush in his hand.

The secondary purpose should be to ask the teacher for sin.

The relationship between Buddhism and Dafeng is very complicated, and they belong to the kind of allies who smile on the surface and MMP in their hearts.

For example, in the Battle of Shanhaiguan that year, the Buddha Kingdom of the Western Regions and Dafeng were allies and belonged to the victorious countries. The southern and northern regions were defeated countries.

However, after experiencing that dream of resurrection from the dead, Xu Qi'an found that the Battle of Shanhaiguan was not as simple as recorded in the history books, because the Wushen Sect in the Northeast was also involved.

"The barbarians of southern Xinjiang, the barbarians of the north, the demon tribes of the north, and the witch god cult of the northeast........ If you add that the remnants of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom are also involved, the camp of the defeated side is huge.

"In other words, how strong was the national strength of Dafeng back then? How strong was the Buddhism Sect in the Western Regions? How strong was Wei Yuan's ability to lead the army to fight? ”

However, the relationship between this alliance was not strong, and in the past 20 years, the northern and southern frontiers have repeatedly violated the Dafeng border, and the imperial court has repeatedly asked for help from the Western Regions, but Buddhism has turned a deaf ear.

Let's not talk about the north, but half of the southern Xinjiang region today has fallen into the hands of Buddhism - the territory of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom back then.

If the Buddha country really thinks of the friendship of the alliance, just send troops to steal the crystal. Do the barbarians in southern Xinjiang still dare to attack the border?

Of course, Dafeng is not a good thing, far away, Yunlu Academy single-handedly led the action of destroying Buddha back then. Recently, the monk Shenshu was out of trouble, and the bad old man pretended to be sick directly.

"Xingshi's questioning has nothing to do with me, I'm just a humble silver gong, and naturally the princes of the court and Emperor Yuan Jing are going to suffer by themselves. I don't know if the supervisor will make a move, most of this old silver coin won't.

"As the presiding officer of the Sambo case, I will most likely come into contact with Buddhist monks....... To be on the safe side, go see the superintendent.

"In addition, the arrival of this mission is both a crisis and an opportunity. The identity of the monk is best known to the people of Buddhism. I can take this opportunity to dig up more information, so that I can give an explanation to Monk Shenju. ”

A bold plan took shape in Xu Qi'an's mind.

"Zhong Li, let's go. ”

Immediately, he changed into the errand clothes of the watchman, put on a mink hat, and left the Xu Mansion.

Riding a little mare that never gets stuck in traffic, he soon arrived at the stargazing tower, he tied the little mare to the side of the steps, and climbed the stairs side by side with Zhong Li.

As soon as I walked through the stone steps and entered the hall on the first floor, there was a flower in front of me, and there was a white warlock's back, and a sonorous voice read:

"Holding the moon and picking up the stars......"

"There is no such person as me in the world. Xu Qi'an replied.

......... Yang Qianhuan paused, came again, and said leisurely: "Holding the bright moon and picking the stars......."

"There is no such person as me in the world. Xu Qi'an replied again, and then said, "Senior Brother Yang, we are going to see the prison official, don't get in the way." ”

Yang Qianhuan was silent for a long time, and said, "I came here for this, and the teacher asked me to inform you." ”

Lord Jian Zheng knows that I am coming? Xu Qi'an bowed his head and said, "You say." ”

Yang Qian's phantom sank dantian: "Get out of !!"

..........

Xu Qi'an patted his ears while untying the reins of the little mare, and said depressedly: "Your Si Tianjian will also roar as a lion in Buddhism?"

"What should I do if my ears are ringing, will I be deaf? ”

After speaking, he saw Zhong Li silently sign language: I am deaf, I have to go back to take medicine, otherwise my ears will be useless.

“........”

Xu Qi'an pointed to his ears and then to himself, meaning: Did I hurt you?

Zhong Li shook his head (shaking his head helplessly, not wanting to talk nonsense with Xu Qi'an).

Xu Qi'an nodded, it seems that this is another catastrophe for Zhong Li, but he was implicated by the other party.

The prison is not seeing me, which shows that the effect of shielding the heavenly machine should be enough to deal with the Buddhist monks......... Getting the answer he wanted, Xu Qi'an breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting downstairs for a while, Zhong Li, who had finished the medicine, returned.

"Are your ears healed? ”

Zhong Li nodded: "Yes." ”

The two of them immediately arrived at the Yamen of the watchman, and went straight to the Jinyutang in Min Mountain, with five big and three thick, and Min Yingong, who had a scar on his cheek, did not have a good air:

"Your One Knife Hall has been renovated, what are you doing here with me? ”

Yidaotang is Xu Qi'an's "office", and the name is chosen by himself, which means "who can block my knife as a hero in the world".

"Is there anything going on in the capital today?" Xu Qi'an asked casually.

"You've heard that, too?"

Min Shan snorted, "The envoy group from the Western Regions is here, I heard that there are high-ranking monks in the team, and within ten miles, the Buddha's light is soaring to the sky." Many of the guards of the city saw it.

When they entered the city, the people of the city shouted madly for the holy monks. If you want to say that the means of demagogic people, Buddhism is the strongest. ”

This should be the ability of the seven-rank mage, I remember that it was recorded in the materials of the case library, the seven-grade mage opened the altar to preach the Fa, and the people heard it, and they were enlightened, and they fled into the empty door one after another........ Xu Qian pretended to be confused:

"What are the Buddhist envoys doing in the capital?"

"Who knows. ”

Min Shan didn't know that the seal in the Sangbo case was actually a Shenshu monk of Buddhism. I don't even know what's at stake.

........

The ship slowly docked at the dock, and on the deck of a three-masted galleon, dozens of watchmen stood on it.

Jin Gong Yang Yan and Jiang Luzhong led a group of watchmen to leave the official ship, and the group looked at the capital after a long absence, and their hearts were very excited.

Especially the vanguard of Jiang Luzhong and Governor Zhang, they have been away from Beijing for more than two months, leaving Beijing in the middle of winter, and then returning, they are already willow branches sprouting, and everything is new.

Li Yuchun beckoned, summoned Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao, and said in a deep voice: "When the debriefing is over, let's go to worship Ning Yan." ”

Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao nodded, their expressions heavy.

More than a month has passed since Xu Ningyan died in battle, and the surging sadness at that time is now precipitated in their hearts, becoming colleagues and subordinates that they will always remember.

Many years later, when I recall the young man who jumped out, I may still have a faint sadness and regret in my heart.

Yang Yan, who was walking in front, turned his head with an expressionless face, but his voice was very low: "I'll go too." ”

Governor Zhang sighed: "If this official wants to meet His Majesty, he will not go with you." Tomorrow I will worship with my wife and children. ”

He has a lot of things to do, and he will definitely not have time to go to Xu Ningyan's grave tomorrow.

This group of people has been floating on the water since Qingzhou, and they can't receive the news from the imperial court at all, so they don't know about Xu Qi'an's resurrection.

Xu Qi'an was not only resurrected, but also solved a palace murder case.

Soon, they arrived at the Yamen of the Watchman.

..........

On this side, Xu Qi'an took Zhong Li out of the Golden Jade Hall, and was about to visit his own hall, Zhong Li walked and walked, and suddenly found that Xu Qi'an had stopped.

She glanced at Xu Qi'an first, and then followed his gaze and looked at the yamen. There, a group of dusty watchmen crossed the threshold........ All froze there.

It's like a stone statue.

"Who is this person, why is he so similar to Xu Ningyan........

"Do we have such a gong in our yamen.......

"Dazzled, I seem to have seen Xu Ningyan, no, how can Xu Ningyan be so handsome........"

"Are they siblings, but Xu Ningyan doesn't have brothers........"

One question after another emerged in the minds of the people who returned to the south.

I'm most afraid of the air suddenly quiet, I'm most afraid of memories suddenly rolling and cramping, and I'm most afraid of suddenly seeing your figure........ Xu Qi'an felt that this lyric perfectly fit their state of mind at this time.

He raised an embarrassed but polite smile: "Hello everyone, my name is Xu Qian." ”

Sooner or later, there will be a day of reunion, but in Xu Qi'an's thoughts, the correct way to open it should be:

After Yang Yan and others returned to Beijing, they were pleasantly surprised to learn the news of their resurrection from the dead from their colleagues in the yamen, and then they rushed over like wild dogs one by one, hugging themselves and crying bitterly.

Such an embarrassing reunion was something he didn't expect.

It must have been Zhong Li who brought me bad luck.

Li Yuchun stared at Xu Qi'an, and used all his strength before he trembled and spoke: "You, you are Xu Ningyan?"

The others didn't speak, but looked at him silently, holding their breath.

"It's me, I'm not dead. Xu Qi'an said with a smile.

Hearing his answer, there was silence for more than ten seconds, Song Tingfeng suddenly shouted, rushed into Xu Qi'an's arms, and hugged vigorously.

"Why aren't you dead, you're obviously dead. ”

"What's going on with the change in appearance? How did you come back to life, tell us. ”

"Alive, really alive...... Hot. ”

The people surrounded Xu Qi'an, and you said a word to me, with excitement on your face.

"This one will be explained later, and ........ will be explained later"

Xu Qi'an pushed Song Tingfeng and the others away, pointed to the silver gong sign on his chest with a smile, and said to Li Yuchun: "Boss, I have become a silver gong." ”

Li Yuchun put his hands behind his back, pretended to be calm, and said with his head bowed: "Yes, my hard cultivation has not been wasted." ”

Xu Qi'an beckoned and said, "Zhong Li, come here, introduce you to my leader." ”

Only then did Li Yuchun see Zhong Li........

His hair was dry and messy, his coarse cloth robe was full of wrinkles, his embroidered shoes had not been washed for a long time, and his face could not be seen......... Li Yuchun felt a cold snake crawling behind him, and his scalp was numb inch by inch.

He showed a look of horror, stepped back again and again, pointed at Zhong Li and roared:

"Whose girl is this, whose girl is this!!"

"Zhong Li, you go to my Yidaotang first, and turn right in front. Xu Qi'an hurriedly sent away the fifth senior sister.

"Oh!"

Zhong Li lowered his head and walked away aggrievedly.

Li Yuchun was relieved, and the goosebumps on his arms slowly dissipated.

Next, Xu Qi'an explained in detail how he came back from the dead.

"Rebirth pills, rebirth pills that can make people shed their old bodies and harvest new bodies? I heard that His Majesty has asked the prison for it before, but the prison has not given it....... Is Chu Caiwei your boy's best friend?" Jiang Luzhong sighed.

After listening to his explanation, some of the people who didn't know about the rebirth pill suddenly realized.

As the mood of his colleagues gradually stabilized, Xu Qi'an put his arm around Song Tingfeng's shoulders and said, "Go to the sect in the evening." ”

Who knew that Song Tingfeng shook his head and said, "I won't go to the Jiaofang Division again." ”

He glanced at Xu Qi'an, and said righteously: "I am no longer the me I used to be, and the current Song Tingfeng will be a person who is determined to forge ahead and practice hard."

"Ning Yan, you will change, and I will change too. You can't look at me with the same eyes you used to have. ”

Xu Qi'an looked at him in surprise, in the month after his death, Song Tingfeng was really calm and resolute.

Li Yuchun praised: "Tingfeng said well, this trip to Yunzhou, you have changed the most. I'm very pleased. ”

Song Tingfeng smiled calmly.

Xu Qi'an clapped his palms, looked around at everyone, and said, "After everyone reports on their work, we will go to the teaching department to drink together tonight, and I will have a treat." ”

After that, Xu Qi'an put his arm around Zhu Guangxiao's shoulders again and said, "I still owe you five times to teach the priest to set up a note." ”

All colleagues were overjoyed.

Song Tingfeng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Ning Yan, I also have my ....... in the note Tonight, I'm going to have a drink at the Workshop Division. ”

"You can't go. ”

Xu Qi'an's face was serious, and he said righteously: "You are no longer the Song Tingfeng of the past, drinking and having fun, and letting loose the wreckage, it is up to me and Guangxiao to do it, you are the enterprising Song Tingfeng." ”

...........

The foothold of the Buddhist mission is the Sanyang Post Station in the West City, which is also the largest post station in the outer city, with two courtyards and three hundred-year-old willows planted in the courtyard.

Hence the name.

The post man of the post station came out of the gate, looked left and right for a while, and entered an alley silently.

In the alley, there stood a young man who was dressed as a watchman, pressing a knife with one hand, leaning his back against the wall, twisting a grain of broken silver in his hand, waiting for a long time.

"My lord, this is the list of the Western Regions Mission, and the master of the team leader is called "Du'er". ”

The post man handed over the note, his eyes swept over the broken silver, and said, "Master Du Er has just been summoned to the palace, and he is not at the post station. ”

"That's a good job. ”

Xu Qi'an flicked his fingertips, and the broken silver threw an arc, which was caught by the post guard, who smiled: "Thank you, sir." ”

Sending the post man away, Xu Qi'an quickly took off the guard uniform, and then took out a monk's robe from the fragments of the book from the ground and put it on.

He touched his head, and his heart was fierce, and he comforted himself and said:

It can be longer.

A few minutes later, a masculine and handsome monk came out of the alley, his robes swaying.

When I came to the gate of the post station, it was not the post man who guarded the door, but two young monks.

"Senior brother, what do you call it?"

Two young monks met and blocked the way.

Xu Qi'an clasped his hands together and recited the Dharma number: "Amitabha, the poor monk Qinglong Temple Hengyuan, learned that the same sect came from the Western Regions, and came to visit." ”

Qinglong Temple Hengyuan ....... The two monks were not easy to fool, looked at Xu Qi'an, and said, "Senior Brother Hengyuan has not kept the precepts?"

"Poor monks cultivate warrior monks. Xu Qi'an had a look of "his own secret is known to his family".

The two monks suddenly realized, and their tones suddenly became polite: "Senior Brother Hengyuan, please come inside!"

........

PS: Change first, then change. Thanks to the leader of the "Harry Potter YY" boss for the reward.
