Chapter 598 Dalin Public Trial (Subscription Requested)
After Chu He's verbal persuasion, Qiu Shiliang finally figured out that now that Li Yan is dead, it is not only not good for him, but also extremely unfavorable.
For now, it is necessary to rescue Li Yan first and make a contribution to protecting the dragon, so that not only can he stabilize the power in his hands now, but also restore the sacred heart.
A group of ten horsemen, except for Chu He's master and apprentice, the rest were all masters found by Qiu Shiliang.
The three old eunuchs who were originally hidden in the palace, even Li Yan may not know about their existence, but he doesn't know how Qiu Shiliang moved them and summoned them.
These three old guys, with a cold breath and a lifeless body, obviously had countless lives on their hands, and their expressions were stiff, like three old zombies.
There are four people left, who are masters of the evil sect, and when they hear the name of a decent Buddhist monk on weekdays, they all flee after hearing the wind for 800 miles, but they don't know what benefits Qiu Shiliang promised them, and they dare to take risks together.
Among the ten horsemen, Qiu Shiliang took the lead in the middle, regarded himself as the leader of the line, and arranged everything.
Chu He didn't care about him either.
When he was about to reach the foot of Song Mountain, Qiu Shiliang suddenly received a flying sword message, his face changed slightly, and he turned his head to Chu Daodao: "It seems that these monks did not meet in Dalin, but went to Wutai Mountain. We immediately turned around and rushed to Wutai Mountain, so as not to be robbed of the credit by Zhao Guizhen and others. β
Obviously, he also planted secret agents in the Buddhist sect, but he didn't enter the core.
The public trial of Li Yan, a Buddhist monk on Wutai Mountain, was just a trick used by Buddhism, in order to disperse the counterattack of the Daomen and the army of the imperial court.
Chu He knows what is going on.
Of course, it is not worth exposing Jielu in order to persuade Qiu Shiliang, and when he heard the words, he said: "Don't panic, don't panic, I don't know if this news is true or not." Even if it is true, at that moment, there must be a lack of personnel in Dalin Temple, and they all went to participate in the public trial of Wutai. β
"We rushed to Wutai Mountain at this time, but we were afraid that we would be one step too late and would not be able to grab any credit. Rather than this, it is better to break the mountain gate of this Dalin Temple and steal the book left by Taizong, which can be regarded as a major event, and it is a bad breath for His Majesty. In the future, Your Majesty will be rescued from robbery, and it is indispensable to reward you and me for meritorious deeds. Chu He thought about it, and could only persuade him like this.
The enemy's conscience was obviously unwilling, but he was not stupid enough to get home, and he knew that what Chu He said made sense.
Most of the forces of the Southern Daomen gathered near Wutai Mountain, waiting to find out the whereabouts of Tang Wuzong Li Yan and rescue him.
Under such circumstances, even if the ten of them went to the past, it would only be a drop in the bucket, and it would not affect the situation at all.
"What's more, if Wutai Mountain is a large-scale gathering of Buddhist and Taoist people, I am afraid that it will inevitably be a bloody battle. Although the Duke of Chu has the courage to be invincible and the magic power throughout the ancient and modern, it is difficult to ensure that on the battlefield, what mistakes will occur in the rapid changes. Seeking meritΒ·Β·Β· It's better to seek stability. Chu He saw Qiu Shiliang's expression struggling, obviously a little unwilling, so he added.
This sentence really hit Qiu Shiliang's heart, so he nodded and said: "What the Taoist chief said is good! Then I'll wait for this and go up to Songshan first!"
Chu He nodded and said, "Poor Dao is good at alchemy and healing, but he is not good at attacking. Why don't you stay at the foot of the mountain with the little apprentice to pick up Chu Guogong, what does Chu Guogong think?"
There was a trace of disdain in Qiu Shiliang's eyes, but he nodded impatiently: "That's fine! You stay at the foot of the mountain, arrange the formation, and put out the means." If we return with merit, we need your help to cut off the pursuers. β
After that, he led the three old eunuchs and the four evil sect masters, turned into eight black shadows, and quietly followed the mountain road to the Dalin Temple on Song Mountain.
When the eight of them walked away, Agarwood was puzzled: "Master, I know you want these eight guys to explore the way, but they are so stupid, aren't they afraid that they will startle the snake?"
Chu He nodded and said: "The public trial of Li Yan is a big deal, and in any case, the precautions of the Buddhism Sect must be very strict, so there is no such thing as a surprise at all." Let the eight of them go up first, but it can be regarded as throwing stones to ask for directions. β
"After all, their eight means are not low, if they fight hard, those senior monks of Buddhism will need to work hard to take them down. β
"As long as they cause a riot, there will be a flaw in the defense of Buddhism in Songshan Dalin Temple, and then it will be the opportunity for you and me to make a move. β
"I see!" Agarwood looked like he had learned something new again.
Sure enough, after noon, in the depths of Songshan Mountain, there were bursts of violent aura fluctuations, which ordinary people may not be able to detect, but monks who have cultivated to the Yuan Shen can feel it keenly.
"It seems that we are starting to do it!Let's go!" Chu He beckoned, and according to the route passed by Jielu, he led the agarwood all the way into the mountains and forests.
After successfully bypassing several large formations and some patrolling defenses, he followed the flaws of one large formation and entered a secluded valley.
At this time, a public trial was still being held in Dalin Temple.
'Li Yan' was detained and knelt down in front of the Buddha, accepted the trial, and read out the indictment.
But after Jielu's Tianyan investigation, news came that the one kneeling in front of the Buddha was not the real Li Yan at all, but a Buddhist master disguised with the art of change.
The real Li Yan was actually imprisoned in this valley, in a secluded meditation room.
In the meditation room, Li Yan was not tortured or abused in any way, but was guarded by an old monk and more than a dozen elite disciples of Buddhism.
Li Yan and the old monk sat opposite each other, as if they were playing chess.
On the chessboard, Li Yan's white son was already bleak, cut into pieces, and he was already about to lose.
The old monk was holding a sunspot, and as long as he had one more son, Li Yan would have no chance to turn the tables at all.
As long as Master Li agrees to the conditions, the old monk will let the donor leave. The old monk put his fingers on the chessboard in the void, pinching the chess pieces, faintly threatening.
Li Yan sat opposite, his face pale, but he was quite calm.
"I became a monk in front of the people of the world, and then the prime minister came forward, opened the treasury and released the silver to redeem me. So far, I have always had a Dharma name on my head, to be a monk emperor who is the laughing stock of the world? The old monk is calculating, so that not only will my previous deeds be in vain, but I will also lose my trust in the world, in the ministers, and in myself. With the help of the imperial court, Buddhism can become more prosperous, like being reborn from the fire. β
"The temple covers an area of thousands of hectares, and it should be ten thousand hectares if it is rebuilt!" Li Yan said with a sneer.
The old monk's hand pressed down, and the chess pieces fell at any time.
"Even so, does Master Li have any other choice?"
"Since ancient times, the king has left the shrine, and the world will be in turmoil for three days, and the wolf smoke will rise on ten days, and it is still unknown who the name of the world will be after 20 days. Now that Master Li Shizhu has been out of the palace for five days, if he delays for a few more days, once Sheji leaves and the dragon qi is no longer there, I will not be so easy to talk to. β
