Chapter 50: Smooth Descent (Part I)
Li Yao hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiyu, this is indeed the case, what the abbot master said is true, we have been here since dinner, and the grass people have indeed not seen outsiders coming. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" thought in his heart: "What the abbot master said is naturally the truth, this girl is not a monk, what if she deceives you!"
"In that case, old monk, do you dare to let my men search?" Ge Yifan was still a little unconvinced, and the mage replied: "This lord, this is the pure land of Buddhism, and so many soldiers came in at once, I am afraid of disturbing the Buddha." As soon as the mage said this, Ge Yifan became even more suspicious in his heart, and grabbed the mage's clothes, "Old monk, it seems that you are not honest!
Li Yao hurriedly shouted: "My lord, you can't do this! you will be blamed by the Buddha!" At this time, Ge Yifan was even more suspicious that Jian Xin and the two were hiding here. With a wave of his hand, the group of golden soldiers and killers scattered and rushed into various rooms, only to hear the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and the little novice who had fallen asleep and several attendants who followed Li Yao were pulled out of the bed by them and brought to Ge Yifan.
Most of the cave temples were burned down by the Jin soldiers, and Master Yu Hui has been working hard to rebuild them over the years, but due to lack of money, only a small part of them have been restored. As a result, the entire temple was nowhere near as large as it had been at its peak, and Ge Yifan's men quickly searched all the places, but found nothing.
A killer ran over and reported: "Qiqi Protector, all the searches have been made, only these little monks and this merchant's subordinates have not found the two people we are looking for!"
Ge Yifan carefully inspected the crowd, and indeed did not find two Kenshin, but he didn't believe it. He asked the killer, "Are you sure? You've searched them all?" The killer hurriedly replied, "Yes, Dharma Protector, this temple is so big, the brothers have turned it upside down, and they really haven't found anything!"
At this moment, a Jin soldier ran in from outside and said to Ge Yifan: "Ge Protector, our General Wanyan invites you to come over!"
Ge Yifan's eyes rolled and nodded, "Okay, I see." He turned his head to look at Master Yu Hui again. I saw a smile on his face, and he hugged his fist to the mage and said, "It seems that I misunderstood the abbot, and the old man can't compensate the abbot here." He turned around and said, "Let's go!"
He turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly turned back to the master and said, "Master Abbot, if you find those two fugitives, you must inform us in time, and in order to prevent them from escaping, all intersections in this area will set up cards and strictly check them, please master must restrain the monks in the temple and not move around at will." If you are caught as a fugitive, it will not be pretty. The master chanted the Buddha's name, which was regarded as a promise. Seeing the appearance of the mage, Ge Yifan sneered, turned around and left. In a matter of moments, the killers and the golden soldiers were gone. Master Yu Hui and Li Yao comforted everyone and told them to go back to rest. The two walked outside the door and watched Ge Yifan and the others leave with torches from a distance, so they put their minds at ease, closed the temple door, and turned around and returned to the main hall.
The mage closed the door of the main hall as well, and then opened the door of the stone cave and asked Kenshin and the two of them to come out. After Zhang Linxin came out, he smiled and said to the master: "Master, this mechanism is also exquisitely cultivated, who would have thought that there would be a dark hole next to the Buddha?"
Dugu Jian hurriedly said: "Lin'er, Hugh is rude!Master, Lin'er, she ......" The mage smiled slightly, stopping Dugu Jian's words, "Hey, it's okay." This organ was left by the Liao royal family when they rebuilt the cave temple, and the old man only discovered it by chance, and he didn't want to be able to help the two of them escape the search today, which can be regarded as the blessing of the Buddha. ”
Kenshin thanked the mage again, and the four of them sat on the futon again. Li Yao was the first to speak: "Dugu Boss, Miss Zhang, the old thief didn't find you, and your beard was going to be crooked." Zhang Linxin smiled and continued: "Oops, it's a pity that I couldn't see it!"
The mage said with a straight face: "Master Dugu, what the man said when he left, the old man has been thinking about it for a long time, but I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to you. Li Yao asked suspiciously, "Master, the old thief...... yes, I get it too. Halfway through speaking, Li Yao also immediately came to his senses.
Seeing the two Kenshin with questioning faces, the mage spoke first: "When that person left, he said that he would block all the entry and exit paths on the mountain, and strictly check the pedestrians, and he must still be suspicious that you are hiding in the temple." But he didn't find it, and he didn't find any evidence, so it was inconvenient to do it at will. So I plan to force you out in this way, because the whole west and south of the mountain are surrounded by water, and there is no road to go, only two roads to the northeast and east. Now they are searching the mountains with all their might, and they must not have had time to block the road yet, but if it is daylight, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to get out. ”
And Ge Yifan's words just wanted us to be in a hurry, and while they were still searching the mountain, they quickly went down the mountain to escape. But this happened to be his hand, and he must have sent men to lie in ambush around the two roads, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. Dugu Jian also understood, and took over the conversation and said.
"Yes, it must be like this! This old thief is really a thief, and we won't give up until we are caught!" Zhang Linxin also said.
"Master, I wonder if there is any other road that leads directly to the bottom of the mountain?" asked Li Yao. Master Yu Hui shook his head and replied: "The old man has been practicing here for decades, and he knows every grass and tree on the mountain by heart, but if you want to go down the mountain, there are only these two roads, and there is no other road to go straight down the mountain. ”
Hearing the mage say this, Zhang Linxin and Li Yao were very anxious, "How can this be good?" Dugu Jian looked at the mage: "Master, since this is the case, then it seems that we can only break through, while they have just arrived, rush down the mountain now, maybe there is hope." Thank you for the Master's cover, and the two of us will take our leave!" he said, getting up to say goodbye to the Master.
Unexpectedly, the mage said: "Don't be impatient, I have a method, maybe I can send the two out safely." ”
The faces of the three of them were full of joy, and Zhang Lin hurriedly asked, "Master, then please hurry up and talk about it." The mage looked at Li Yao and said, "This matter still needs to fall on Master Li Shi." ”
"I don't know what the master has in mind? Li Yao was a little puzzled.
Master Yuhui smiled slightly, and said: "There is a Huayan Temple in Datong City, the abbot of the temple is named Tongwu, and his local prestige is very high, and he is a close friend of the old man, and tomorrow morning, I will order someone to invite him to go up the mountain." At that time, Master Li Shizhu can hide the two Dugu masters in your caravan, and let the old man and the abbot of Tongwu as a cover......." The mage told his own method, and the three of them listened to it, but it was indeed a clever plan, so that Ge Yifan would not be able to detect it nine times out of ten.
If this is the case, Li Yao will definitely take Dugu and Miss Zhang out safely. Li Yao even said yes.
"It's just one more thing, I don't expect that Ge Yifan will definitely not let you go so easily, he will definitely order someone to follow you all the way. Therefore, after Dugu went down the mountain, it was inconvenient to leave the caravan immediately, so he still followed Li Shizhu to the grassland together, and waited for the chasing soldiers to leave again. ”
Dugu Jian nodded: "What the master said is very true, that old thief did not find us, and he would definitely not give up so easily." He and Zhang Linxin knew very well that as long as the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map" was still in their hands, it would be impossible for Ge Yifan to give up tracking them.
Zhang Linxin also said: "That's fine, if we go south directly after going down the mountain, maybe they will be noticed." If you go north, this vast grassland, sparsely populated, the Five Colors Sect just wants to find it, but I'm afraid there is nowhere to find it. ”
At that moment, a few people discussed it again, and carefully deduced tomorrow's plan again, and after thinking that there were no flaws, they were relieved.
Master Yu Hui said to the three people: "Unconsciously, it is close to the fourth watch, the three of them should go to the guest room to rest for a while, and the old monk will keep vigil for everyone tonight to prevent the thieves from coming again." ”
Dugu Jian hurriedly said: "How can this be? Please rest in peace with the master, I will keep vigil, the kid is young and strong, and it is nothing if he doesn't sleep all night." ”
Master Yuhui shook his head, "Okay, don't fight, you have to hurry tomorrow, but the old man has nothing to do, I will meditate here, you go quickly." ”
When the three of them saw that the mage was resolute, they got up and thanked him, "Then it's bothering the master." Then, under the guidance of the master, they went to the meditation room at the back and slept separately. The Master returned to the main hall and meditated and chanted until dawn.
Early in the morning of the second day, the master instructed two prefect monks to go down the mountain to buy the things that were missing on the mountain, and by the way, he went to ask the abbot of Huayan Temple, Master Tongwu, to go up the mountain to discuss the Buddha, but did not tell the two monks his true intentions, but only ordered them to ask Master Tongwu to go up the mountain. The two monks were ordered to go down the mountain, and sure enough, they were carefully checked by the Jin soldiers guarding the intersection at the bottom of the mountain, but they saw that the two monks were not wanted, so the Jin soldiers did not embarrass them, and they passed the inspection smoothly and went down the mountain.
After a few people on the mountain had breakfast with Master Yuhui, they began to modify their appearance. Fortunately, Li Yao was dressed as a woman, and she also brought a lot of clothes, although most of them were placed in the caravan of the inn under the mountain, but it was relatively easy to order someone to send a few.
Dugu Jian was put on a beard by the two girls, and a long scar was painted on the right side of his face, and then he put on four or five clothes in a row, making himself look thicker, and the boots were also padded a lot, making him look nearly half a head taller than usual.
And Zhang Linxin is much simpler, she glued two mustaches above her lips, a short beard on her chin, tied up her hair, and wore a crown facing the sky.
The dress of the two of them concealed their original faces by seven or eight points, not to mention that Ge Yifan had only seen them in the dim light of the fire at night, even if he had seen them during the day, it was extremely difficult to associate with the present.
