Chapter 178 The heart is hesitant
Huali suddenly reported that Zhenjiang had fallen, so he personally rushed from Yangzhou, the capital of Jiang, and sent 30,000 elite divisions overnight. Suddenly noticed that there were monks passing in the sky, so he took to the air to inspect, but unexpectedly met Pan Ruoxue who was in a hurry. After a fight, Pan Ruoxue did not endure the battle, used illusions, and fled far away.
Suddenly, lest Pan Ruoxue spy on the military situation of the army, he flew around Zhenjiang for a hundred miles before he slowly landed and returned to the army.
The torches lit by the pine resin sesame oil crackled, illuminating the big tent as if it were day. Hua Li suddenly sat on the tiger skin chair, secretly recalling the scene of the fight between Fang Cai and Pan Ruoxue, and his gestures were full of charm, but he was secretly murderous...
It's very much like his fellow sister, Guo Min. Hua Li suddenly grabbed the mutton fat jade bowl full of milk wine, slowly brought it to his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp, and a hint of wine red suddenly appeared on his wide face with yellow and black.
With a snap, the jade bowl rewarded by the palace fell heavily to the ground and fell to pieces. Hua Li suddenly got up, supported the desk with both hands, looked at the map made of thick animal skins on it, and his eyes fell on the three big characters of the red Ying Tianfu, staring at it for a long time. He whispered to himself, "Since you have gone to Yingtianfu, you will always see each other." Wait until our army enters the city, and at that time, see who is the real hero!"
Suddenly, a jade talisman flew out of the Sumeru ring, it was Wang Baobao's message, Hua Li suddenly stretched out his hand, his consciousness was swept away, and his face was slightly angry, how could the enemy army in Chuzhou escape into Hongze Lake?! Wang Baobao actually ordered himself to lead the army to retreat, return to Hongze Lake, and exterminate the so-called demon army!
Although he is a deputy marshal, he must be controlled by Wang Baobao, but he is a young man and brave and good at fighting, how can he only be a submissive echo worm, not to mention that he will not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside, and he led an army of 200,000 to capture Zhenjiang in the east, and the lands in the south of the Yangtze River are in sight. Could it be that just because there are only 10,000 people who don't know the so-called demon army, they withdrew to the area around Hongze Lake!
Huali thought for a moment and replied, "Zhenjiang has been lowered, and the marshal can choose a good day to attack Yingtianfu with his subordinates." Hongze Lake, the remnants of the enemy's army, can make the surrounding armies work together to annihilate it.
Wang Baobao, who retreated to Chuzhou from the main tent, looked at the message that came from the flowers, put the jade talisman aside, and said to the generals under the tent the meaning of the flowers, "Sure enough, as I expected, the flowers are just for their own use, so happy, and they have captured Zhenjiang, so they want to ask me to attack Tianfu together." ”
groaned slightly, and then gave another order,
"That's fine. After passing the order, the Hongze Lake Naval Division landed, boarded a ship from Huai'an Road and went to sea, secretly sailed to the sea where the Yangtze River entered, and anchored on the sea 30 miles away from the land, waiting for dispatch. ”
"The county governments around Hongze Lake are closely blocking and monitoring the enemy forces in Chuzhou in the lake, and if there is any movement, report it immediately. ”
"At dawn tomorrow, the army on the left will attack Liuhe, and the army on the middle and right will be divided into two ways to annihilate all the enemy troops in the area of Laoshan!"
The generals received their orders in unison and dispersed.
..
Ying Tianfu Governor's Mansion, Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang, looking at the map, had hidden worries on their faces. The emergency military report of Huali's sudden capture of Zhenjiang was passed over and over in the hands of the two of them, and it had been read no less than seven or eight times.
"At the moment of the great enemy, I can't imagine that Zhang Shicheng, an old horseman, still only cares about his own one-third of an acre of land, so that Hua Lihu can calmly take Zhenjiang!" Li Wenzhong was furious and slammed the case with his fist.
"According to the Tanmalay report, the monks of Qixia Temple have found sporadic Yuan army sentry spies at the foot of the mountain. Li Shanchang, pinching his beard, suddenly asked, "Where is Li Linfu? Why haven't you come yet?"
Ma Linghua's Yin Body Confucian cultivators were headed by Li Linfu. At the beginning, Ma Linghua and Zhu Yuanzhang had an agreement that in case of emergency, Li Wenzhong could dispatch and command the Yin Body Confucian cultivation. Now that Zhenjiang has fallen, Zhang Shicheng's army has shrunk back like a turtle and is stationed far away in Changzhou. Ying Tianfu was directly exposed to the soldiers in the flowers. Therefore, Li Wenzhong discussed with Li Shanchang to requisition the Yin Body Confucian cultivation to defend the area of Qixia Mountain.
The soldiers sent had been there for almost an hour, and Li Wenzhong's eyes widened, and he was about to call someone to invite Li Linfu to come quickly.
But I heard Li Linfu's voice outside the hall, "It's too late, the two adults have been waiting for a long time." ”
Li Wenzhong looked at Li Shanchang beside him, stepped forward to greet him quickly, then slowly got up, hugged his fists and said, "Zhenjiang is lost, does Li Lao know?"
Li Linfu, who was still fighting with Li Shanchang, suddenly turned pale, "The reason why the old man is here is because of this matter."
Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang waited for Li Linfu to finish speaking, only to know that after Li Linfu knew that Zhenjiang was lost, he got up and went to Pingjiang Mansion to find Pan Ruoxue, the spokesperson of King Wu and Dongji Island, to ask for a reason. Subsequently, he flew to the Zhenjiang area overnight, and secretly saw that Hua Lihu was already in Zhenjiang, and tens of thousands of elites crossed the river and landed, whether it was a person or a horse, they were wrapped in thick iron armor.
Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang glanced at each other, their hearts heavy. These tens of thousands of iron horse heavy soldiers, once they attack and kill, the defenders outside Ying Tianfu City are afraid that it will be difficult to resist!
"Now we have to guard against the direction of Zhenjiang, the situation is urgent, and Li is afraid that he will be troubled by Li Lao. Li Wenzhong's eyes were blazing, staring at Li Linfu.
Li Linfu didn't think about it, and replied, "If Li Dudu has any military orders, the old man will take it as soon as he can." ”
"Okay! Li Lao is worthy of being a Confucian master, Wen Zhong admires it!" Li Wenzhong patted his thigh and stood up again, "Please ask Li Lao to lead all the Confucian sect to overhaul it, move Qixia Mountain, and be sure to stop and delay Huali suddenly coming to attack the headquarters." ”
Li Linfu stood up briskly, "Old man, let's go back and gather all your fellow Daoists and go to Qixia Mountain!" With a slight arch of his hand towards Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang, the figure disappeared in the hall.
Li Wenzhong looked at the direction where Li Linfu disappeared, and was born for a while, and Li Shanchang next to him said softly, "Wenzhong, Mrs. Ma has a noble status, and Li Linfu and the others are Confucian overhauls who have died once, you and I should not be easily neglected when we meet with them." ”
Li Wenzhong was shocked, then woke up and was about to answer.
But when he saw Li Linfu suddenly appear in front of him like a ghost, he saw his eyes squinting slightly, looking at himself and Li Shanchang lightly, and asked, "Qixia Temple, there is Master Wuxu." I don't know if the time comes, will the old decay join hands with Master Wuxu and the White Lotus Sect to meet the enemy?
Li Shanchang immediately replied with a smile, "Elder Li is too worried. The White Lotus Sect, we have planned to send it to Laoshan and Xiaguan, and I am afraid that Master Wuxu will also go. The monks in the area of Qixia Mountain are going to bother Li Lao to take command. ”
Li Linfu smiled and nodded absently.
Looking at Li Linfu, who came and went like the wind without a shadow, he faded his figure again, and Li Wenzhong, who had experienced a hundred battles, couldn't help but feel a little jealous, and was stunned for a moment, then said to Li Shanchang, "What Master Sima said is extremely true. But somehow, all of a sudden, I thought of Wuxulai, who lived in Qixia Temple, Qixia Mountain. At the moment of the great enemy, monks like Wuxu and Li Linfu play a role in the army, and they cannot be ignored, is it appropriate to sum up with Li Shanchang and others before?
hesitated, so he consulted Li Shanchang with his worries.
After hearing this, Li Shanchang was silent for a long time before he sighed, "You and I are actually acting according to the strategies of Mrs. Ma and Fairy Nalu, and the marshal also knows. Even a few days ago, the military documents you and I wrote were just for the courtiers to share their worries for the king. The deep meaning of this, Wen Zhong, you still don't understand?"
After all, Li Wenzhong is the commander of the Ying Tianfu army, "But now that the situation has changed, if you follow the previous strategy, I am afraid it will be difficult to win." ”
Li Shanchang shook his head, "We must not act without permission. Just now, Li Linfu went and returned, and suddenly asked each other, the meaning of which is quite evocative. ”
Li Wenzhong is also a smart person, and he can understand it at one point, "What does Master Sima mean, then Li Linfu is testing you and me?"
Li Shanchang nodded solemnly, "Li Linfu is Mrs. Ma's confidant, and Mrs. Ma's plan must be known to kill two birds with one stone." He was not so much a temptation as a warning. ”
Mrs. Ma, Ma Linghua, is a fairy from the sky, with a monstrous mana, she said that she moved Zhu Yuanzhang and joined forces with Fairy Lu, who is also outside the sky, to get rid of the White Lotus Sect. If Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang show friendship and dependence on Wuxu and others, I am afraid that the time will come.
Although there are all kinds of inexplicable restrictions on the monk's behavior in the human world, it is easy to kill a person.
The more Li Wenzhong thought about it, the more cold he became. walked to the map, took a closer look, and said to himself, "If this is the case, you must have the direction of Huang Tiandang, and also attack in the direction of Chuzhou, so that Wang Baobao no longer has any doubts." ”
The army of Xiaguan has moved forward to the area of Laoshan, and if Huang Tiandang also sends troops to echo it. Then Wang Baobao, who was in Chuzhou, had to gather heavy troops to encircle and suppress the main force of Ying Tianfu in the area of Yulaoshan and Chuzhou. In this way, the strategies of the horse fairy and other masters can be implemented.
The garrison of Huang Tiandang and the south bank is now the reinforcement brought by Hu Dahai from western Zhejiang. Li Wenzhong's move is to use this part as bait and cannon fodder.
Li Shanchang wanted to speak, but saw Li Wenzhong's resolute and murderous face, and then thought of "The so-called one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and Ci will not be in charge of the army, when the time comes, secretly inform Hu Dahai." So he kept silent.
..
Qixia Temple on Qixia Mountain, in a deep meditation room, there is no light from the self-evident, in a white light, Wuxu sits cross-legged, and is contemplating the Buddha statue of Master Padmasambhava in the Dharma Realm. Since the day of Wuxu's enlightenment in the Phoenix Ridge of the old mountain, he has evolved the changes in the Dharma realm, manifested the Buddha statue of Guru Padmasambhava, and made an agreement with Dorjee and others to meditate and return to Guru Padmasambhava every night, which has been non-stop every night.
No matter how busy you are, you will still be able to separate your divine consciousness and do this work in the Dharma realm.
In the past few days, Wuxu has already said that Shihai and others have taken Jiming Temple as the dojo and the White Lotus Heart Law as the foundation, rooted in the White Lotus Sect, carried forward the Dharma, and rebuilt the Taoist system. Tonight, when there are not many obstacles in my heart, I enter the mandala Dharma realm, recite the mantras such as purifying the mouth and purifying the karma, and sincerely recite the "Great Day as it comes." Sutra", such as three or three or nine times, after reciting the dedication, silently meditate on Guru Padmasambhava.
But see, the body and mind disappear, time and space do not know, realize a void of divine consciousness, in the unspeakable, when the unspeakable, see the infinite boundless void, Guru Padmasambhava, half of his body is fire, half of his body is like gold, sitting on the lotus seat, if he wakes up and sleeps, the whole body is full of ten thousand rays of brilliance looming.
Suddenly, Guru Padmasambhava opened his eyes. Wuxu felt that he was getting closer to him. Master Padmasambhava looked at Wuxu for a while, smiled slightly, and spat out a mantra from his mouth.
It seems that Pangu opened the sky, and the void where the Void Consciousness is located, the sky collapses and the earth cracks, and all of a sudden, it is separated from Guru Padmasambhava by thousands of pounds, and the farther it is.
When he arrived at the body of the Enlightenment Void Divine Consciousness, in the Mandala Dharma Realm, he suddenly woke up, opened his eyes, and outside the meditation room, there was a voice from a little monk, saying, "Pan Ruoxue, the old man of the East China Sea, asks to see." ”
Pan Ruoxue realized that the Void Divine Sense was in place, and after thinking for a while, she ordered the little monk to invite him in.
After a while, Pan Ruoxue, who was graceful, swayed and moved slowly and entered the meditation room. Wu Xuan held the salute alone, "Amitabha, Fairy Pan came late at night, I don't know what you are doing?"
Pan Ruoxue was about to say a few witty words, but when she saw that Wuxu had just woken up from meditation, the whole person was like a ball of colorful light, looming, and if she was about to leave, she sighed, "This palace came this time, but I wanted to ask the master for an idea. ”
"Fairy Pan is resourceful, and the woman doesn't let her eyebrows, what's the matter, but you have to ask the little monk for advice?" Wuxu sat there cross-legged, his voice floating, his eyes seemed to be closed, and he was still reminiscing about the scene and artistic conception of the encounter between Fang Cai's divine consciousness and Guru Padmasambhava.
"Zhenjiang is lost, and this palace is here to report one or two. I wonder what the master has to do?"
Pan Ruoxue stood there, thinking that her faint words would stir up turbulent waves.
But who knows the void, not frightened, like a mud bodhisattva, the whole person seems to be wandering elsewhere, there is no response for a long time, for a long time, Fang slowly asked, "Zhenjiang is lost?
It was the first time for Pan Ruoxue to see Wuxu talking about the situation in the world so indifferently, looking at Wuxu who was lowering his head and lowering his eyebrows, smiling and smiling, and couldn't help but ask, "Master, cultivation is diligent, and there is no need to worry about the affairs of the world?"
Wuxu slowly opened his eyes, looked up at Pan Ruoxue, and said lazily, "These military situations have people like Fairy Pan who care about them." The little monk secretly participates in meditation and enlightenment, if there is neglect, please forgive me. ”
Pan Ruoxue saw that Wuxu seemed to be a different person, stomped her feet, and was about to step aside, sitting on a chair not far from Wuxu, intending to re-consider the long term, but suddenly heard a voice sounding outside the meditation room, "Master Wuxu, Li Linfu visited late at night, I don't know if I bother?"
Wu Xuxu sat on the couch, his hands still maintained the shape of the lotus seal, and he heard that someone who claimed to be Li Linfu was coming outside, he raised his head slightly, his eyes revealed a fine light, the door opened without wind, and a black shadow floated in.
"Li Linfu, but I don't know if it's Li Linfu, the famous minister of the Tang Dynasty?" Wuxu asked softly as he slowly dissipated the halo around him.
"It's the old decay," Li Linfu glanced at Pan Ruoxue, and then solemnly bowed to Wuxu.
It turned out to be a generation of traitors Li Linfu! Wuxu glanced at him slightly, secretly playing with the unpredictable world and the feeling of time and space being reversed, and then erased his thoughts, and calmly looked at Pan Ruoxue and Li Linfu in the room.
I was contemplating Guru Padmasambhava tonight, but I didn't want these two uninvited guests to come one after another in the middle of the night, but I collided and disturbed the divine consciousness that happened to meet him, and Guru Padmasambhava said a true word to himself, and he didn't remember it.
"I don't know what happened to the two donors visiting late at night?" asked Wu Xuan with a little displeasure.
Li Linfu bowed, bowed as a junior among the monks, and said respectfully, "The junior is ordered by Li Wenzhong to go to the area of Qixia Mountain tonight to block the enemy from Zhenjiang. When passing by Qixia Temple, I saw that there were Buddhist Tantric Protector Vajra Phases above the temple, and there was a pillar of colorful light, straight into the nine heavens of the clouds, it was known that the master was here to comprehend the Dharma, and he came to visit. ”
After thinking about it, he himself entered the mandala Dharma realm to meditate on Guru Padmasambhava, and estimated that he had opened up the connection between the meditation room and the place where Guru Padmasambhava drove in a mystical way, so that he was so out of phase that he was sensed by a Yin Body Confucian cultivator like Li Linfu, who was naturally sensitive to Buddha's breath.
Then he smiled and said, "When the little monk settled, the two of them were able to walk to the meditation room, and it was also fate. Pointing to the tea set on the table in the room, he motioned for the two of them to pour themselves a drink, "Meeting is fate, even if there is a thousand times and space, as long as there is fate, it will also be born in the center of the underworld. ”
Pan Ruoxue saw that Wuxu's breath was floating, her breath was weak, her expression was indifferent, her speech was confused, and she was about to ask.
saw Li Linfu take the first step, stood in front of Pan Ruoxue, and said to Wuxu, "Master Buddhism is profound, and every sentence has a deep meaning. We are glad to hear it. ”
Wuxu has been immersed in the artistic conception of the encounter between the divine consciousness and the Guru Padmasambhava, Pan Ruoxue and Li Linfu followed a little disappearance, found over, a few words of conversation, but it was in a trance, and saw the Tang Dynasty traitor Li Linfu depicted in the books of the previous life standing in front of him, and couldn't help but feel the confusion of time and space, and sighed with fate.
Now I heard that Li Linfu said that his Buddhism is profound, but Wuxu is half happy and half frightened, scattered his handprints, and waved his hand slightly, "The little monk has been rolling in the red dust pile of the world, and it is rare to be like this night. ”
As soon as the words fell, Pan Ruoxue's crisp laughter rang out, "According to what I have seen in this palace, Master Wuxu, I haven't seen him for a few days, and the cultivation realm has become more and more mysterious." But I don't know what kind of treasure and majesty is the master of Wuxu rolling in this red dust pile?"
Wuxu heard Pan Ruoxue's laughter and jokes, suddenly woke up, frowned and asked, "Fairy Pan, said that Zhenjiang was lost, but is there such a thing?"
That's right
The iron horse crossed the Yangtze River with heavy troops, and the fairies gathered in the Zen room.
Wandering outside the world to listen to the truth, as if coming and going, the heart hesitates.
