Chapter 6 Mingguang Night Talk

17days ago Xuanhuan Novels 8
Mingguang Temple in the night is deep and quiet

At the steep gate of the back mountain, two men in black clothes were guided by a little novice monk and entered the back Zen temple.

After walking for a while, the little novice monk led the two to a low small Zen room. The little novice monk pressed the door and called softly: Abbot, a guest is here

A turbid elderly male voice came from inside, Amitabha, two donors, please come in!

The door opened automatically, and the two men looked at each other, then entered the Zen room one after another.

The man in the lead took off his black hat from his head, revealing his slender face, his face was a little blue and gray, and his eyes were a little gloomy. He locked at a monk who was sitting against the wall at first sight.

The monk looked only fifty years old, with a fat body, full of flesh on his face, especially the flesh on his chin, which had to have two layers of thick soles.

From the perspective of appearance, it is considered kind-hearted and kind

He smiled slightly and said: It turned out to be a distinguished guest! Please take a seat, he pointed to the straw mat on the ground

Two men took off their boots and sat face to face on the straw mat while the other man also took off his hood and showed his face. It turned out to be Huluying.

What are the two donors? The abbot looked directly at the two people in front of him

The man with a blue-gray face bowed his head and saluted, stood up and paused, saying: Lieutenant Zhang Bao, who is in the Northern Army, is here! Come to the abbot to discuss a deal with the captain Huluying!

Huluying also smiled and said: I hope the abbot does not refuse!

A trace of light flashed in the abbot's eyes and said calmly: All the officials are the imperial court, and I am the abbot of the Yeshi Temple. Although they are in Anjing, there are differences between the Jinghe River and there is no other connection. How can I get it? If you talk about business, I don't understand any business in the secular world. The Buddhist sect only talks about saving sentient beings.

Zhang Bao coughed and said: The world is bustling, all for profit. Although Mingguang Temple does not talk about the interests of the world, it also needs to talk about the difference between Buddhism and Taoism? Sitting in the back mountain in this way, he does not know that a great disaster is coming!

The abbot smiled and asked: Why did the donor say this?

My Great Wei fought with Zhao State in Kawahara. Anjing City now looks calm, but in fact it is undercurrent. For example, in recent days, many deacons of the Dao Sect have entered Anjing, and it seems that they are suspected of stealing Anjing. Isn’t this a bad situation for you Mingguang Temple?

Even if what the donor said is true, it would be normal for the Daozong to come to Anjing! But what's wrong with my Mingguang Temple? The abbot's face still had a faint smile

Zhang Bao said word by word: This time, the one who came is Masayoko, the top master of the Dao Sect! Doesn’t the abbot know this person?

His eyes were staring at the monk's eyes, as if he was catching something

When the abbot heard this, he hesitated for a moment and said: Zhengyangzi is a master of the world. How can I not hear it? But what this Taoist sect wants to do when they come to Anjing and cannot interfere with the Mingguang Temple of our Buddhist sect, and they will not do anything about our Buddhist sect. Although there is a dispute over the theory of Buddhism and Taoism, it is definitely not a matter of blood when they meet. Moreover, Anjing is at the foot of the King of Wei. Since the donor under the imperial guards is the captain of the imperial guards, they should deal with it themselves. Why did they visit our temple at night and say something dangerous?

Zhang Bao thought to himself: What an eloquent old monk!

He looked at Huluying, and Huluying smiled and said: "Abbot has made some comments!"

, and said again: Did the abbot forget that the mountain where Mingguang Temple is located was given by whom and who invested in building it?

The abbot looked solemn and replied: This old man naturally knew that he was the kindness of the Supreme Emperor of Wei and welcomed the request of the most holy Buddha mother of our Buddhist sect. He specially approved Mingling Mountain and built Mingguang Temple here to promote Buddhism and save sentient beings.

Huluying said: Isn’t this a gift from the former king to Mingguang Temple? Isn’t it a great good deed!

The abbot said: Naturally

Now that the heroes are competing for the same sects, it is a matter of trouble! It is also a battle between Wei and Zhao, and Anjing is inevitably coveted by other forces. The Buddhist sect represented by Mingguang Temple is an allies with our Wei Kingdom. The Dao Sect will not come early and not come late, but it is the reason for this. I believe the abbot can guess one or two things. If the Dao Sect is disrupted and stable Anjing, the mountain of Mingguang Temple will not be seized. The abbot said that the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is a dispute over reason. However, in recent decades, the dispute over theory that you have said has been killed. Is it still a dispute over reason? Although the two Buddhist sects clearly claimed that it was just a dispute over reason, and did not express the hostility of life and death, the abbot naturally understood the connotation, and I would not argue much about it.

Hulu Eagle Road

The abbot's face changed slightly and he said: What do you mean is that the purpose of Daozong this time is to plot against my Mingguang Temple?

Huluying said with a serious expression: Since the Taoist sect and our Wei Kingdom split the way more than ten years ago, the Buddha sect was just allowed to enter the Wei Kingdom for more than ten years, Zhengyangzi had not come out of the mountain for more than ten years. This time, he suddenly entered Wei Kingdom and had a purpose. According to the secret spies, it was to visit his friend Abbot in the future. Do you believe it? The court is not easy to interfere in this journey between the monks. You have many masters in the Buddhist sect. If you take action, it is not the best to protect yourself, and the second is to repay the kindness of the previous king. If you don’t take action, the imperial guards will naturally suppress the Daozong. However, at that time, the empress dowager will not play a promise. Will it alarm the Buddha mother? If the Daozong really turned upside down in Anjing, you Mingguang Temple will be the first to be the first to be in trouble! Zhengyangzi is a tough person and will be revenge if he has any grudges! After the battle at Longgu Mountain, he said: You must be killed! I hope the abbot weighs the pros and cons and thinks about it.

When the abbot heard this, he no longer had his calmness before and said: This matter is of great importance. I cannot make a decision and I have to report to the Buddha Mother.

Huluying and Zhang Bao were both happy and said, "I'll wait for the good news of the Buddha Mother!"

When the two left the Zen temple, the abbot immediately said to Shami: Guanghai, go and invite Master Jiekong!

Yes, the abbot asked Guanghai's little shaman to bow and retreat

After a while, a sound of footsteps came from outside. A white and fat monk came in, folded his hands together, lowered his head and said: Brother Jie Jing

Abbot said: Junior Brother Jiekong, please sit down

When Jiekong sat down, he told him what had just happened.

After listening to it, Jiekong thought about it and said: Senior brother, Masayoko is a powerful murder weapon from Daozong. There must be premeditation and backup plan. We must prevent it from happening.

Well, because of this, the people in the court saw that they wanted our Buddhist sect to step forward and take this muddy water. The abbot's tone was helpless.

My junior brother is resourceful, what can I do about this matter?

Senior brother, it’s better to do this. First inform the Buddha Mother, everything will be decided by the Buddha Mother.

The abbot showed a worried look and said: Well, this is the only way, but the Buddha Lord has been in seclusion for many years and will definitely not be able to take action. This time, it is hard to say whether the Buddha Mother can personally arrive in Anjing. After all, Liang Kingdom still has to guard against the Western Regions and the Northern Mang, and they are not at ease recently.

Jiekong comforted: Senior brother, don’t worry so much. Even if the Buddha Mother cannot come, Master Kuchan from Tuoling Temple will definitely come. Mingguang Temple is related to the foundation of my Buddhist sect in the Central Plains Kingdom, and no one can give up!

Well, then I rushed to Lingjiu Mountain immediately. I would like to worry about the affairs in the temple!

Early in the morning of that day, the abbot of Mingguang Temple, Master Jiejing, rushed to the holy land of the Buddha Sect in Liang Kingdom, and Zhang Bao and Hulu Ying also went to Yingyangwei together.

Yingyangwei is a secret institution under the hands of the Wei State's General Office, so it is difficult for outsiders to know that Zhang Bao and Hulu Ying were blindfolded and were taken into an underground secret room by a deaf and mute eunuch.

The secret room is not big, no light is seen

When the old eunuch walked in, with a cough, an oil lamp lit up, and under the dim light, black curtains on all sides formed a square shape.

The old eunuch took off his blindfolds and retreated

The two bowed and said in unison: Meet Lord Changshi! A cough came from inside, and they walked closer to the curtain, pulled the opening cloth and flashed in.

A lamp also lit up inside the square surrounded by the curtain, with a long table in the middle and a simple straw mat underneath.

The chief of the case, sitting upright, pale, thin, and needless old man

The old man wore a Diao Chan crown on his head, a straight-hem black robe, and a blood eagle embroidered on his chest.

This is exactly what Ying Yangwei dresses

Judging from his appearance, he seemed a little humble, but his eyes often revealed the aura of a superior.

The two sat face to face with the old man, Zhang Bao lowered his head and said: Sir, Jiejing has set out to Lingjiu Mountain.

Hehehe! Well, cough cough cough cough cough... The old man also had a series of strange laughter. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth, and said in a sharp voice: I didn't expect that Jie Jing was so straightforward. It seems that Zhengyangzi still has a great deterrent force to them. Since he has gone to Lingjiu Mountain, it can be concluded that the Buddha Sect will take action. Though Zhengyangzi is known as the Sword Sect and has unparalleled swordsmanship, there are masters of the Buddha Sect intervening. In this way, Bo Wanghou also lost his strength and wanted to truly turn the world up, he had to pass the Buddha Sect's level first!

Judging from the voice, he should be an old lady

Yes, he is one of the four regular attendants, Song Gong

It’s still good that the adults are far-sighted and clamping the two uncontrollable forces at the same time is really beneficial to us. Huluying praised

Song Gong glanced at him and said: Well, but we still cannot underestimate the Marquis of Bowang, and we cannot underestimate the fact that the Daozong Zhao State attacked Wei was not for some miracle. It is most likely that there was another intention! Unfortunately, even if we predicted that there was a fraud, we had to send a general and a general of the chariots to Kawabara to resist the Zhao army. Once the eight docks were lost, our decades of operations would be wasted!

Zhang Bao said: These rioters are really tricks! They are so sinister! They make us in a dilemma

Song Gong said helplessly: Even if we see this kind of open conspiracy, we can only fulfill their intentions to mobilize troops and generals to deal with the current enemy's darkness and our slightestness, and we are deeply trapped. It can be seen that there are experts among them to help!

Sir, what should we do next? Zhang Bao asked cautiously

Well, Zhang Bao, from tomorrow, you must contact Xuan Bingwei and be ready to suppress the incident. I will lead Ying Yangwei to assist you behind the scenes, keep an eye on the important officials of Anjing, and strictly investigate internal spies. Hehe, are these people dragons or shrimps, tigers or dogs? They will have nowhere to hide in our eyes!

Yes, Zhang Bao answered in a deep voice

Song Gong smiled at Huluying again and said: I guess Zhang Feng has already told you all the instructions of the Grand Assassin, so I will not repeat them. I will help Zhang Bao consolidate the safety of the capital and prevent rebellions from outside and investigate spies internally! Do you understand?

You should give your best efforts!

After saying this, Song Gong said to the two: The Seventh Sect of the Black Witch Sect has arrived in Anjing in the past few days. The Grand Assassin cannot pull himself away for the time being. I am fully responsible for all matters. If there is any disturbance, I will inform me immediately!

yes

Go down!

Hearing this, the two of them stepped out. After half a stick of incense, another person came in outside the curtain. He was a white-faced eunuch.

What happened? Song Gong asked

According to insiders, Zuo Qian, the governor of Nanping County, did have close contacts with Daozong. Last month, he had letters with his elder brother Zuo Qun, and he complained about the court. He seemed to be dissatisfied with him for a long time! He had bad intentions! This is a letter!

The eunuch took out a letter from his arms and handed it to him

Song Gong glanced at the letter a few times, his face was gloomy and gloomy, and after a while, he said: Immediately send a letter to General Cavalry and order him to take Zuo Qian!

When the eunuch took the order and left, he laughed sinisterly: Hehehehe! Zuo Qun! It seems that you are still a big fish, but our family has taken a look!
