Chapter 26 Wisdom and Courage 12
The heroes nodded one after another, and they all felt that there was only this way to do it now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Cha Ganmu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and said to a small monk beside him: "Little ...... Little Master, please tell Lao Wei that there is an old saying called stay...... Stay in the mountains, don't be afraid of the vegetables burning, let him be obedient. The little monk was nervous, looked at him impatiently, and did not answer. Cha Ganmu was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: "Did I say the wrong thing? Yes, 'Lao Gao' must be a humble statement." Of course, the abbot wants to say that he is old, one is obvious that he is old and respectable, and the other is that he is very modest and powerful...... "I thought about it for a while, and I felt that it was not conclusive, so he smiled at the little monk, put his hands together and said: "I'm sorry, it's rude, I know that this title is wrong." ......Thinking that the old monk was old, it seemed that this little monk must be inappropriate, so he turned slightly in his throat, and asked in a low voice: "Please be obedient." Seeing that many Shaolin disciples were glaring at him, he didn't know what was wrong, so he had to retreat.
Xuan Bei said: "The old man wholeheartedly advises you to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I don't want you to be still obsessed, and he will take the blame for himself...... Amitabha. β
Ouyang Yan said: "Zheng Shouwei, these people are handed over to you." He patted Xuan Bei's shoulders and neck in three key points.
Zheng Shouwei gave an order, ten soldiers stepped forward with swords and put Xuan Bei in prison, and the rest of the disciples were kept in the dark, so they had to follow in frustration.
Seeing the "traitor" leaving, the heroes were not half happy, the Heroes League was already outnumbered and weak, and Shaolin was the pillar of the Heroes League.
At this time, I saw Wang Shen leading the way to report: "Baiyue Gong has moved to the East School Field, please go to the tribute inspection and loading." β
Ouyang Yan said: "Let's go." The crowd said nothing, but followed.
In July, in the Western Regions, the autumn sun is high, the mountains are cloudless, the snow is thousands of miles, and the heaven and earth are bright white. Before Qunhao arrived at the East Campus, he saw a golden light in front of him, which was even more dazzling than the vast white snow. Qiu Yizhang rubbed his eyes and said, "Fuck, what kind of treasure is it dedicated to the emperor?"
Low in the air, a blue bird flew by, the sound of wings flapping can be heard clearly, after the blue bird, the east school field is silent, only more than 3,000 people can hear the sound of different breathing, the group of heroes are talking about it, at this time I saw the moon tribute, but no one spoke.
In the center of the east school field, there are seven hillock-like treasures neatly stacked, and next to the seven treasure mountains are thirty double carriages.
At this time, I only heard a soldier on the east floor say, "My lord, someone is coming." β
Zheng Shouwei said, "Please come in." β
The soldier said, "Open the east gate!"
"Huohuo" twice, the east city gate opened, and a beast-faced monster broke in, opening its teeth and claws to pounce on the Hero League. The three thousand Qunhao were looking at Bai Yuegong "dizzy but not blind, tongue but not down", at this time suddenly saw such a monster, they were all startled, and they all retreated. A disciple of Xiaohuang Nunnery was looking at Yuegong blankly, when he suddenly saw a lion's head pounce and fell into the snow with a scream.
Everyone was in shock, and saw eighteen monsters wearing red foreheads, painting clothes, and red whisks entering the east school field. "Bell, bell" two big cymbals loud sound into the ear drum, deafening, the big cymbal aftersound is not clean, small gong, big gong, waist drum, high hu, suona, pipe played in unison, the silent Tongtianfu suddenly became noisy and lively.
Qiu Yizhang shouted: "My day your ancestor, what kind of name is this?"
Zheng Shouwei said: "Everyone should be alarmed, they are the lion dance team invited by the old man, according to the custom, the moon worship must set off artillery every year, and invite the lion dance team to enter the city to exorcise evil spirits and avoid ghosts." β
Ordinary lion dance team is just wearing lion heads, gold clothes, wool shoes, just because Wang Shen Ling has other instructions, this lion dance team is dressed in strange costumes, and the face is also painted colorful, some bite long tongues, some hold bloody spears, and there is a short and fat man, wearing a blue gown, with two papier-mΓ’chΓ©, blood-red eyes hanging on his face, he stood forward, like a frog. The lion also danced with teeth and claws, and the seven-colored ribbons on his body danced in the wind.
Qiu Yizhang looked at the lion dance team and said: "This fucking pretending to be a ghost, how is it like a lion lantern [Note: Lion dance is called a lion lantern in some areas of Sichuan]?"
Zheng Shouwei arched his hand and said, "I have disturbed everyone, please forgive me." β
Qiu Yizhang wanted to say something, but Ouyang Yan said: "Since it is the old custom of Tongtianfu, we will follow it, it's not too early, just load the tribute and get on the car." β
As soon as Zheng Shouwei raised his hand, Vice General Li took out seven booklets, Zheng Shouwei handed the booklet to Ouyang Yanjue, and said: "This is a tribute book submitted by the seven counties in a radius, please check them one by one." β
Ouyang Yanjue handed the account book to Liu Shaoying and said, "Shaoying, Tiande, you two go to check the tribute." β
Zheng Shouwei said: "Push the tribute box over." β
The soldiers worked in a team of two, pushing the boxes one by one from the entrance of the school field. "Good!" The first two soldiers pushed the box above the entrance of the cave, shook it from side to side, and then opened the lid of the box and stood up.
Liu Shaoying began to check the items one by one in the tribute book: "Xiaoyi County, three hundred and twenty-three catties of red gold, seventy-two catties of gold, ninety-three catties of ball jade, four hundred and twenty catties of blue jade......" The three soldiers came to a treasure mountain, first put the red gold into a basket, and the two of them put the big flat shoulder of the bowl into the weighing buckle, and stood opposite, and said "up!" trembling and standing up, another soldier hurriedly dialed the weighing, and said to Wu Tiande: "Two hundred and thirty catties, please take a look." After Wu Tiande confirmed, he said: "Pack!" Four soldiers came up, lifted the basket, and carefully packed the red gold into the dart box one by one.
In this room, twelve musicians flocked over, beating gongs and drums around the tribute box, and the two male lions walked, ran, jumped, rolled, tossing and turning, as if this was the critical moment to exorcise ghosts.
As soon as the incense was burned, the first dart box was full, and a soldier shouted, "Cover!" The lion dancers all fell silent so that the people in the secret passage could hear clearly.
At this time, a strong man with a sledgehammer walked up. Gu Yuecong, Ouyang Yanjue, and Zheng Shouwei couldn't help but glance at each other, and they all thought: "Success or failure is here." Gu Yuecong thought that the emperor had to rely on a few lion dancers and a cave to make the country eternal, only to feel ridiculous and lamentable.
The two soldiers slowly closed the lid of the tribute box, only waiting for the people in the secret passage to take away the moon worship tribute and replace it with a stone. In the sound of earth-shattering gongs and drums, more than ten lion dancers screamed together, and after a long time, the lion's head jumped and quieted down at the same time. The big man with the sledgehammer stomped his foot, pressed the steel nail to the lid of the box, raised the sledgehammer, and shouted, "One, two, three, knock!"
At the same time, the gongs and drums sounded, the lion protruded, and the lion's head sometimes jumped out a few steps, sometimes spinning in place, rushing left and right among the heroes, shuttling back and forth.
