Chapter 96: Borrowing Soldiers
"It turns out that the nine monks of Linggu Temple who broke into the palace at night are you, it's really disrespectful!
"The government and the White Lotus cultists are searching in Hangzhou City, the poor monk hid for a few days, and could not find a chance to go out of the city, and then the poor monk hid the crown and the holy flower under an ox cart transporting typhoid patients, and successfully took it out of the city, I was not suspicious, and I also went out of the city as a scholar, where did I know that the ox cart was pulled away again, all the way to Quzhou, and then the ox cart also disappeared, and my traces were found by the White Lotus disciples, and I was seriously injured by the Sanyang Ghost King. β
"It's him, I didn't expect the Sanyang Ghost King to be the enemy of the righteous path after all. Stone remembered the meeting between him and the Ghost King, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"What, have you also seen the Sanyang Ghost King?" Jinghong said in surprise, he was a little afraid that he had lost his eyes, he was now desperate, and pressed the bet on the young man in front of him.
The stone will not hide it, and nodded, "Senior Brother Jinghong, I am Zhao Shishi, a disciple of the Shangqing Sect in Maoshan Mountain, and I also came to Zhejiang to exterminate the White Lotus Sect on the order of my master. β
"Maoshan, stone?" Jinghong turned his head, stared at the stone tightly, and said with a miserable smile: "It turned out to be you, no wonder you have spent three consecutive nights here over the lonely soul and wild ghost, what a stone, the poor monk finally did not see the wrong person." β
"Senior Brother Jinghong, what happened later?"
Jinghong ripped open the corner of the package, and the stone saw that the pearls embedded in the crown were exposed inside, shining brightly, and Jinghong continued: "The poor monk escaped desperately, but after receiving a chain of the Sanyang Ghost King, he was in a coma for two days, and completely lost the trace of the ox cart, and the poor monk searched all the way, and finally found that the ox cart had been abandoned here, and the thing was fortunately still there. β
"And what are you going to do now?"
Jinghong looked around, except for the dead corpses and lonely souls, there were only the two of them, and said in a low voice: "The poor monk overheard a White Lotus Sect disciple talking about the fact that there is the chief rudder of the White Lotus Sect hidden in the Rotten Ke Mountain, and I believe that the secret of the White Lotus Sect is in this mountain, and I want to go into the mountain to find out." β
"However, Senior Brother Ma said that the path in the Rotten Ke Mountain is complicated, and if you are not careful, you will have to worry about your life, so you can't enter it casually. β
Jinghong nodded, "For the sake of the common people in the world, even if you go to hell, I have eight senior brothers in Linggu Temple who have dedicated themselves, and it is the turn of the poor monk to do so. β
"I have a few Daomen brothers, right here, do you want to take you to meet them? β
"No, I've seen those companions of yours during the day. Jinghong shook his head, "This matter is very important, there is no room for mistakes, and the less people know about it, the better." β
There was no way for the stone, he bowed his head and was speechless, Jinghong looked up at the night sky and knelt on the ground, "Amitabha, the Buddha is above, please give the disciple a clear sign, should the White Lotus Sect replace the righteous path?"
As soon as the words fell, I heard the slogans of the patrol soldiers not far away, echoing in the valley under the night sky, this is the patrol team under Liu Yanlang, Liu Yanlang set the military rules, every night there must be a team of soldiers patrolling along the official road to prevent incidents.
"It's a subordinate of General Liu Yanlang. Jinghong muttered to himself.
"Who?"
"Liu Yanlang. "Look at good books
Shi suddenly said happily: "Liu Yanlang Lord Liu is here, I have a way." β
Liu Yanlang's account.
The sound of the wind in the middle of the night is still like rain, the light of the lamp and candle is swaying in the small tent, the general is busy with military affairs for a day, and still has not gone to bed, he is sitting upright in his clothes, reading at night with candles, this is his habit for many years.
"Reportβmy lord, there is a family member visiting outside the tent!"
When the general heard this, he couldn't help but smile secretly, his parents had passed away a long time ago, he had no brothers or sisters, and he was unmarried, and because he had been leading troops all year round, he had long since lost his news.
"Come in, please. β
The adjutant stepped forward to inquire, and the soldier said that he had already checked and there was no weapon, so the adjutant let him go.
After the two met each other, Liu Yanlang saw that the two people in front of him did not show their true faces, why did they pretend to be mysterious like this? Just as he was about to ask a question, he felt that things were a little strange, so he immediately retreated, leaving only the adjutant.
"Lord Liu, don't come to harm!" The stone took off his hood and showed his true face, Liu Yanlang remembered the past, got up and took the stone's hand, "It turned out to be a little master of the stone, I haven't seen you for many years, and the stone has grown into a talent!"
"Lord Liu is loyal and courageous, and the deeds of resisting the Japanese have long been spread in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Shi feels very admired. β
"The stone has won the prize!" Liu Yanlang said with a smile: "But the stone is not in Maoshan Cultivation, why did he come here?"
Jinghong on the side also took off his hood, folded his hands, and said, "Lord Liu, the poor monk is back again!"
"What advice do you have for the monks to come this time?" Liu Yanlang felt that they must have something urgent, and couldn't help but put away his smile.
Jinghong briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter, and finally said: "The right stone is mentioned, Lord Liu has done his best, loyal and courageous, and the poor monk has taken the liberty to come and present these two pieces of evidence of the Qiantang King's conspiracy to rebel and fornicate with the White Lotus Sect, and I hope that the adults can make a living for the people in the world and speak impartially!"
After Liu Yanlang listened, his face was as pale as dirt, this matter is very important, and he is just a third-grade general, and he is soft-spoken, and the officials in Zhejiang have been bought by the king of Qiantang, and he is shouting that he is breaking his throat and writing a broken tube, and he may not be able to reach the heavens, he is not sure, and he is speechless.
Stone and Jinghong have been kneeling on the ground, anxious and worried, the adjutant on the side saw that the adult was speechless for a long time, knowing that the adult wanted to take care of this matter, but there was no good solution, so he took the initiative to take the things in Jinghong's hand and said, "My lord, I have a plan, maybe I can do it." β
Liu Yanlang hurriedly said: "Adjutant Wang, speak quickly." β
"My lord, why did you forget, this is not far from the boundary of Jiangxi, you only need to repair a book to the current governor Wu Qingshu, he was Zhou Tianxiang Zhou's staff, and he has always had a friendship with the adult, if you can present this thing, when the time comes, Lord Wu can play a book, borrow troops from Jiangxi and Hubei to enter Zhejiang to quell the chaos, what do you think of this plan?"
The night wind lifted the curtain of the big tent, but Lord Liu didn't care, and ordered his subordinates: "Grind the ink!"
