Chapter 651: Conditions
What the four women needed most at the moment was a secret place to discuss plans, and there was no such magical corner in the tent, and the only option was the rudimentary latrine outside.
So, Xu Yanwei went inside, and the three of them lined up outside, pinched their noses and discussed for a while, and when they returned to the tent, they all turned pale, which made the monks and nuns feel quite uneasy, thinking that there was another problem in the food.
Lian Qing knew that they were planning to escape, so she looked at Shangguan Ru expectantly, hoping to be able to participate, but Xu Yanwei asked him a question first, "Why, nun's ...... Things stink, don't you have a pure heart and eat vegetarian every day?"
Lian Qing was shocked, he couldn't speak for a long time, if he was still a robber, he could easily answer this question, or scold a sentence brutally, or tell a joke obscenely, but he is now a monk, he must take the problem seriously, thought about it, scratched his head, in the scriptures he has read, there seems to be no similar question and answer, so he said: "You don't know, the monk's stinker is even worse." ”
Xu Yan raised his hand slightly and slapped it a few times in front of his nose, "No more than a quarter of an hour, let's do it." ”
Lian Qing was taken aback again, "Do this now......?"
Three of the four women didn't know martial arts, and one lost all their skills, and Lian Qing couldn't think of how they could escape.
But he could only be a bystander.
Queen Ju called Shangguan Hong, "Are the monks willing to be obedient?"
They all admired His Highness, saying that His Highness's vow to promote the Dharma was a great meritorious feat. ”
Queen Ju already saw a trace of respect in the eyes of the monks and nuns, and she just wanted to be confirmed here in Shangguan Hong, so that the other three daughters could hear it, "Okay, now that I am in trouble, I need the comfort of Buddhism the most, I hope they can recite the sutras to me, the louder the better." ”
This requirement is very easy to achieve, and the monks usually have to recite the sutra silently when they have nothing to do, not to mention that there is a queen hand-picking? It took some trouble to choose which sutra to choose, and in the end, it was still bitter to make the decision, and all the monks recited the Vimala Sutra together.
Lian Qing was disdainful at first, but when he saw Master Fa Yan conforming to the crowd, he also sat down, and his voice was louder than anyone else.
Queen Ju clasped her hands together and chanted in a whisper.
This trick worked very well, and the Buddha quickly helped her achieve her true purpose.
The officer rushed in and reprimanded loudly: "Noisy and noisy, raising you bald donkeys for nothing, and the rice money is enough to buy as many high-quality horses as you, and you don't want to be quiet for Lao Tzu?
The chanting sound weakened slightly, and after a while it rose again, and the monks had been trapped for a long time, and felt deeply humiliated, and found that the sound of chanting could make the guards upset, but they became more energetic.
The officer raised his leg and was about to kick someone, but Shangguan Ru stepped forward, "I want to see the person in charge here." ”
The officer stopped his feet and squinted at the man, "I'm just, what, you want to talk to me alone? My tent is much more comfortable than here." ”
"I want to see the people of the proud building. ”
The officer was stunned for a moment, "You mean the Immortal Mage, what time does he have to see you? Obediently follow me." ”
The officer smiled and reached out to grab Shangguan Ru's arm, and Shangguan Hong, who was kneeling with the monks, suddenly jumped out, pressed the officer down, pulled out the matching knife, and put it on the opponent's neck.
Shangguan Hongzhen didn't want to save his half-sister, but the queen's order didn't dare to disobey.
"Don't mess around!" shouted the officer.
When the monks saw that the matter was getting bigger, they all shut up and got out of the way.
"This time we can meet that immortal mage, right?" Although Shangguan Ru didn't like to kill people, he was still very happy to take revenge on the vulgar officer.
"Dare to touch a single hair of my hair, you ......"
"Are we still us, the Old Khan King and the Immortal Mage, going to kill for a little cell boss?"
The officer's voice was silent for a moment, and his tone softened when he spoke again, "The Immortal Mage doesn't live here, where can I find it?"
"That's your business, you can't do it, you send someone to spread the word. ”
"I'm sorry for you, I want to pass on a word, I've said it earlier, can I move the knife away first?"
Shangguan Hong glanced at the queen, but the knife did not move.
"We have a few demands, first, there are different men and women, monks and nuns, we can't be locked together, we want separate tents. ”
Shangguan Ru hadn't said the second request yet, Xu Yanwei hurriedly said: "There must be a bed in the tent, I can't sleep when I lie on the ground." ”
"I've got to be able to take a shower, I've got a change of clothes, I'm going to die. Xiao Fengchai raised his sleeve and sniffed it, with a look of disgust.
"I want at least one maid. "There are two people around Queen Ju, but Shangguan Hong is a eunuch, and there are many inconveniences, Xu Yanwei is a servant in name, and her status is similar to that of her master, at most she will help her, and she will not do anything else.
"Clean up the latrines outside, and have a night pot in the tent. Xu Yanwei added.
One of the nuns was encouraged and whispered, "I want a fan, everyone takes turns to use it, the weather is too hot." ”
The officer was dazed when he heard it, he didn't remember a single one, and nodded frequently, "Okay, I'll go and pass the word, let me go." ”
"You are a hostage, you can't let go, tell your men to pass the word. ”
This was the most humiliating moment for the officer, and a dozen or so soldiers rushed in, both surprised and amused, these monks had always been very honest, and almost did not need to be supervised, which made them careless, and no one expected that as soon as the four women arrived, they would immediately cause trouble.
The officer sat on the ground and ordered the soldier to make a request to the immortal mage with a cold face, and it was not until he shouted that a smarter soldier understood what he meant, and left the tent without hesitation.
The two sides are locked in a standoff.
Queen Ju asked the monks to continue chanting, and the Sanskrit chanting began again, but the voice was much quieter.
Lian Qing asked in a low voice, "This is your plan?"
"Wait and see. Shangguan Ru replied in a low voice, "If there is an accident later, you can't help." ”
Lian Qing glanced at Master and nodded.
The time when he needed his help soon came, and the soldier didn't look for the immortal mage at all, but invited the four companions outside the tent, secretly went to the back of the tent, cut the opening with a sharp blade, and swarmed in, intending to take back the hostages.
Lian Qing endured a lot of patience, and finally got a chance to vent, and finally remembered that she was a monk, and her shot was not too ruthless, and she still beat the intruder to the ground, and the soldiers at the door of the tent had not had time to cooperate, and the woman had a few more hostages in her hands.
In the middle of the night, a noble officer came, very politely, first expressing shock and surprise at the practice of co-incarcerating men and women and the conditions of the prison, claiming that this was not the original intention of the old Khan, and then carefully noted down the cumbersome requests of the women, saying that he would try his best to meet them.
Afterwards, everyone will find that this rebellion to improve the conditions is very thrilling, at that time it was more uneventful, the soldiers only tried to save people once, and then did not take any other means, most of the time it was confrontation and waiting, and in the end, Shangguan Hong even removed the knife from the officer's neck.
In addition to the officer's concern for his future, Tie Qing refused to speak, and even the captured soldiers joined in the small talk, "The monk is really powerful. That's a phrase they often say.
In the early hours of the morning, the aristocratic officers returned, meeting most of the demands of the four women, who could have a tent, and the nuns with another, and the monks had to be locked together, and the latrines would be cleaned up every day, and bathwater would be supplied once every three days, and the lustful officers were transferred out and replaced with a leader who respected the Buddha and Taoism.
This was a big victory, the mutual trust between the four women increased a lot, Queen Ju was even willing to talk to Xiao Fengchai directly, but her need for a maid alone could not be realized, the officer only sent a rough envoy, and the queen was never willing to let her touch herself.
The victory also made them believe that the so-called immortal mage, that is, the zombie face of the proud building, must have other plans, and everyone has an idea in their hearts, and no one wants to say it, just guessing and guessing endlessly.
The Immortal Master came at night, and at this time several women had already taken a shower, changed into new clothes, and were in a good mood, as long as the conditions were not too excessive, they were willing to accept them.
The zombie face was still wearing thick clothes, and he was weak to speak, this time there were no Xiaoyue Hall disciples by his side, so he could speak directly.
"You are the people named by the Imperial Master to arrest, and I can't let you go. He first set a bottom line for the negotiations.
"You don't have to let people go, but don't hurt people either, it's all your idea to take ** medicine in your meals and force monks to break their vows, right?" Xu Yan said with a slight snort.
"This is a common trick in Wangcheng Alley. The Immortal Mage didn't deny it, and he didn't think it was too much, "I won't use it anymore, you can eat and drink with confidence." ”
The four girls glanced at each other, but Xu Yan said slightly, "You don't have to hide, even if there are any conditions, we may or may not agree." ”
The Immortal Mage's gaze swept around, and finally landed on Shangguan Ru, "You have the first seven chapters of the Dao Divine Skill." Then he looked at Queen Ju, "You have chapters eight and nine. ”
"You know everything. Queen Ju said coldly that those two chapters of scripture were one of her most important assets, and they would not be handed over to anyone easily.
"As for the two of you. The Immortal Mage looked at Xiao Fengchai and Xu Yanwei, "It's useless for the time being." ”
Xu Yanwei raised his eyebrows, and just wanted to say that he was very useful, but he closed his mouth in time.
"I want the two of you to do the magic of the Dao. ”
"In exchange for this?" Queen Ju pointed to the rudimentary tent, disdainful.
"I can't release people, but I can leak information. ”
The hint of the Immortal Mage was already obvious, and Queen Ju's heart moved, but she couldn't help but glance at Shangguan Ru, wanting to hear how she answered.
"We're going to think about it. ”
The Immortal Mage didn't want to get the magic right away, he retreated outside the tent, "I'm not in a hurry, if you have any other requirements, just mention it, as long as you don't release people, I can do it." ”
A few people really couldn't think of more requests for a while, and Shangguan Ru suddenly became interested and said, "Send a jar of good wine." ”
She needs to get drunk and then find a way to regain her strength.
