Chapter Ninety-Six: Tai'an (1)
Three days later, Cangzhou ferry
Ten Khitan warriors knelt on both knees, and in the Khitan the face of the emperor was also kneeling on one knee, but they believed in the grace of heaven and earth, and they mistakenly thought that they would retribution.
Zong Xin chuckled in his robe: "Don't be like this, the poor monk's Dharma name Zongxin naturally has to say the word 'letter', and the poor monk has to talk about credit in what he promises." Now you are also considered to have completed your merits, and after returning to the Khitan, the poor monks will say hello to the Khitan Emperor Yelu Deguang. ”
"The great kindness of the host is unforgettable. ”x18
"If you don't forget, you don't forget, it can only mean that you have a good memory. Zong Xin said: "Okay, everyone stand up, these wolf cubs must take good care of them, if they like the scenery outside the Saiwai, let them move to the Khitan land, and report this matter to the Khitan Emperor for the poor monks." ”
"Obey the master. ”x18
"Thank you master for saving your life, I ......" Yelu Beier had some words to say, this is the only Central Plains person who does not hate the Khitan, and the only enlightened monk recognized by the world. But this monk was not disciplined, let alone eating meat and drinking wine, and even slept with women......
"Go, go, the poor monk is waiting for you in Weinan. ”
Eighteen Khitan warriors rode on wolves, escorted the carriage across the river, and then headed north.
Yelu Beier opened a bag on the carriage, which contained the underwear he had left behind when he was a Khitan. Yelu Beier has not been idle in the past few months, but has peeked at Fu Yanqing's training as a beggar, and finally sketched the general formation of the five-shaped formation.
As long as the father emperor gets the formation graphics of the five-shaped formation diagram, there will definitely be high-energy people who will find a way to crack it.
Originally, Yelu Beier wanted to tell Zong Xin about this, but he didn't open his mouth when the words came to his lips. I had a lot of things in my heart, and I was stunned for a while.
In the past few days, Yelu Bei'er has been staying with the Eighteen Dharma Protectors, and after listening to Master Zongxin's deeds, she has developed great admiration for him. There are even some girls who are jealous of the demon demon next to Master Zongxin...... But she is a Khitan princess, how can she marry a monk?
The Eighteen Dharma Protectors sang triumphal songs outside the carriage, and these Khitan languages were not understood by ordinary Han people. They were so happy, so happy that they couldn't contain it, and they had to sing it.
At this time, the Eighteen Dharma Protectors were not afraid of being heard by the Han people at all, because they were all dressed as monks, and they were riding wolves, as long as they reported that they were the protectors of Master Zongxin, the Han people would never do anything to themselves.
It would be better if you ran into the Khitans, and you could follow the large army and return directly to the border of the Great Liao.
Jerubel put the clothes in his baggage and kept them, and when he returned to the palace, he gave them to his father. After all, she is the princess of Da Liao, and it is good to be able to share the worries of her father.
................................................
"Ahh
The white wolf looked at the eighteen wolves in the distance and wished them a smooth journey.
Zong Xin said: "The boss should look like the boss, let them take a look at the situation first, and then take all the clan wolves to settle north." ”
The white wolf really wanted to take a look, and although he didn't understand Zongxin's words, he understood what Zongxin meant.
"Amitabha Buddha ~ It's good to go, it's good to go~" Zongxin sighed: "Princess Khitan returns to Daliao, so Yelu Deguang must die." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Kuangyin looked at Zong Xin in surprise, could it be that this was also in his plan?
Zong Xin said: "Demon demon, if you tell Zhao Kuangyin the secret in Yelu Bei'er's clothes, he will know why I said this." ”
"Yelu Bei'er's clothes have the formation diagram of Fu Yanqing's five-shaped formation, which I believe was secretly drawn when I was begging in Cangzhou in the past few months. After watching it for a few months, Yelu Beier finally had some eyebrows, and the formation was well drawn. The demon said excitedly: "As long as she gives the formation map to Yelu Deguang, Yelu Deguang will naturally not doubt the formation map drawn by her own daughter who endured humiliation." At that time, the biggest obstacle in the Khitan was gone, and Yelu Deguang must have greatly increased his confidence, and he would definitely go south after spring ploughing next year. ”
"Is this what Zongxin said?"
The demon nodded immediately, with her intelligence, she couldn't have imagined that far. Even in the entire Central Plains, only Zong Xin dared to boldly let go of Yelu Bei'er, and no one could do it. Even if she let go of Yelu Bei'er, she wouldn't let her take the formation map away.
Zhao Kuangyin sighed: "Fortunately, I am your friend~ Otherwise, I would have to count the money for you if I was sold by you." Just like Li Shouzhen, he doesn't even hate you now. ”
Zong Xin nodded proudly, Li Shouzhen was trapped in Tongguan, and the news could not enter at all. Even if the news entered Tongguan, Li Shouzhen would think that this was a lie made up by Zong Xin for self-preservation. After all, in Li Shouzhen's opinion, Zong Xin was helping him from beginning to end, and even when he arrived at Tongguan, he sent people to send grain, grass and armaments.
And most importantly...... It was clear that victory was in sight that night, but it was a pity that he didn't hold out to the end, otherwise he would have won. Guo Wei was already at the end of his crossbow, but he listened to two spies who he didn't know at all to report, and as a result, he ordered to retreat. If not, the world is decided.
Now Li Shouzhen still has two hopes, Yongxing Festival makes Zhao Siwan secretly help him under the guidance of Master Zongxin, if Zhao Siwan rebels, there is still a chance of life. As for the Fengxiang Festival, Wang Jingchong did not have much effect. Although Wang Jingchong secretly transported grain and grass, it could only solve temporary worries and could not last long.
The second hope is that Yelu Deguang will wave his army south, as long as Guo Wei leaves, he will kill Tongguan, and then join forces with Zongxin Master Weinan to take Chang'an in one fell swoop. As long as Chang'an is obtained, he will be able to continue the old part of the river, re-take charge of the 200,000 army in the river, and directly enter Kaifeng to ascend the throne and become the emperor.
Of course, Li Shouzhen actually has another hope, that is, to worship the eldest brother Lei Hong. It's a pity that Lei Hong will not participate in the government, and now that things have reached this point, he won't care anymore. I hope he can remember the righteousness and save his family.
"Whatever, it doesn't matter if Li Shouzhen is dead or alive, let's go to Tai'an first. After Zong Xin finished speaking, he turned over and got into a wolf, and the demon jumped directly on the wolf and hugged Zong Xin from behind.
Zhao Kuangyin turned over and followed behind Zong Xin. The most depressed is him, and he has been wondering, why doesn't Zongxin leave a wolf for himself? Those eighteen wolves are so enviable~
No matter how strong the horse is, it is not as good as this white wolf, Zongxin, this wolf was originally the patriarch of the wolf clan, tall and with sharp claws, and the speed of running is by no means comparable to that of horses, and the most frightening thing is that the white wolf runs silently under his feet, like a ghost.
From Cangzhou all the way to the south, there are 600 miles from Tai'an. At the speed of a white wolf, it can arrive in a day, but to take care of Zhao Kuangyin's horse, it took three days to get to Tai'an, and even then Zhao Kuangyin's horse is tired.
When he came to Tai'an, it was extremely prosperous at this time, which frightened Zongxin. I have never seen such a bustling street, it can be said that it is crowded with people, and everyone is holding weapons and blades, and it can be seen that they are all people from the rivers and lakes.
Not only Zongxin was shocked, but everyone who saw Zongxin was also shocked, because he was riding a white wolf, which was much larger than a horse, and it was strange that he was not afraid when he saw the wolf at first sight. But if you think about it carefully, you immediately know who this monk is.
Zong Xin's deeds spread quickly in the rivers and lakes, and everyone knew that Zong Xin had subdued more than a dozen giant wolves to serve as mounts for the Dharma Protector. His own mount is a giant white wolf, which is by no means comparable to ordinary beasts of prey.
"Are these people all here to take over the Red Emperor? I'm afraid there is no inn. "The demon is most concerned about this issue, because he hasn't dressed up well in the past few days because he is in a hurry, for fear that Zong Xin will not look good.
Zhao Kuangyin said: "There will always be a way." ”
"Amitabha, as long as you go around the city a few times, my father will definitely come to the door. ”
The demon also reacted, Lei Hong, the son of the night sky, will definitely come to Tai'an, and he will also go to the Taishan Conference. I believe that the strength of Lei Hong, the son of the night sky, will definitely charter the most expensive and luxurious inn in the entire Tai'an, and outsiders are not allowed to stay.
As long as you know that Lei Hong lives in the inn, no one dares to live in it even if you give money......
"Brother Yuen Long, what time is it today?"
"August 11. ”
"I didn't expect it to take a turn, and it only took a month. Zong Xin sighed, this lap is not small, starting from Fengxiang, first to Weinan and then to Taiyuan, after Xinzhou Wutai Mountain, then Cangzhou, and finally to Tai'an. This is almost all the land of the entire Han Dynasty, and south of Tai'an is the border of the Tang Dynasty.
Now that there are four days left until August 15, let's think that everyone who should come has come. Everyone came for the Red Emperor, but no one knew what the Red Emperor was.
When Zongxin came, everyone automatically gave way, and they all knew that this was Master Zongxin, a contemporary high-ranking monk. Zongxin walked around the street casually twice, and sure enough, someone stepped forward to block the way.
"Master Zongxin, Yu Pengfei, the head of the Lower Taishan Sect. How about a drink with the master?"
"In the Lower Wuchang Gate, the master of the sect, Wu Yi, wants to invite the master to have a drink. ”
"In the Lower Ink Bamboo Sword Sect, the sect master Mo Jianzi wants to invite the master to have a drink. ”
..............................
People kept coming forward to ask for wine, these people knew the value of Zongxin, he was able to break Li Shouzhen, he was deeply trusted by Liu Chengyou, and he also accepted Guo Wei's son as an apprentice. Not only the Central Plains, but even the Khitan Emperor Yelu Deguang personally rewarded him. Either way, it's good to be friends with him.
"This king Lei Hong wants to have a drink. This sound almost suppressed everyone, and the sound was so loud that people's eardrums were cracked and their hearts were blocked. At this time, Lei Hong was on the top of a tall building, and his huge round body stepped on the roof faucet, and with Lei Hong's weight, he didn't crush the carved dragon, so he knew that this person was outstanding.
Zong Xin took out the Bacchus gourd from his waist and threw it directly at Lei Hong. Lei Hong opened the gourd and took a sip of it, and threw the Bacchus gourd back. The crowd that had been in a heap gradually dispersed as they heard Rayhon's name. People are self-aware, who dares to rob guests with Lei Hong? Isn't this looking for death?
Zong Xin stretched out his hand to pick up the gourd, but someone was the first to get there, and Zhao Jing, who was full of white hair, grabbed the wine gourd first and took another sip.
Zhao Kuangyin immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Grandpa." ”
"Well~ good wine, the wine of the Dionysian gourd is really never tired of drinking. Zhao Jing smiled: "Don't stand so tall with the surname Lei, be careful of falling to your death." ”
Lei Hong took a step forward, and his huge body suddenly fell, and after he landed, he didn't even raise a trace of dust, as if his huge body was full of air. Everyone was stunned, one was surprised by Lei Hong's huge body, and the other was Lei Hong's amazing cultivation.
