Huo Yuan led more than 300 masked black-clothed bandits disguised as elite soldiers of the city defense army to ambush in the woods around Faxiang Temple, until the monks were asleep, Huo Yuan gave an order, he waved his hand: "The action begins!"
The brothers tied up all the bald donkeys and escorted them to the square, pay attention, don't touch the abbot here, that is, Na Hongyi Shi, his martial arts are very high, you are not his opponent, the big bald donkey will be dealt with by this seat himself. ”After Huo Yuan gave the order to act, this group of black-clothed people quickly rushed towards the monks' dormitory like a black wind in the night.Of course, Hongyi Shi lived in the abbot, and in the dead of night, the mage still hadn't fallen asleep.He was wondering why people do evil.Is it the original goodness of human beings?
Or is it the original nature of human beings?
Is it the law that regulates the wicked and makes them good?
Or are good people being tempted astray aswise?
Is it universal for all living beings?
Or can you only die with Buddha in your heart?
Is it to feed the tiger with the body, take righteousness?
Or do you not hear and meditate?
Just as Master Hongyi was meditating in the hope of receiving the Buddha's prompts, a little monk stumbled and ran into Master Hongyi's meditation room, he tripped over the threshold when he pushed the door, and panicked and couldn't care about the pain: "Master, it's not good, there are more than 300 masked robbers who have taken the temple monks to the square of the Daxiong Treasure Hall to prepare to kill their heads, and the leader of the bandits also said that if the master does not go to meet him in front of the temple, he will start killing the monk until he is killed!"
”Just now, when Master Hongyi was meditating, he did hear noisy footsteps and various cries in the temple.The Master is meditating, and the emphasis on meditation is to put the knife on the neck, and the mind is not disturbed.Besides, this is a monastery, a place of monastic practice, a daily light meal, one meal a day, no money, what can be robbed?
If you are dedicated to goodness and worship the Buddha wholeheartedly, it is even more impossible to make enemies with the world.So Hongyi only thought that what he heard was illusory.Concentrate on meditation.But the little monk in front of him was so panicked, he said that the bandits wanted to kill the disciples, and this Hongyi Master couldn't sit still, and the mage retracted.He opened his eyes and said calmly: "Don't panic, immediately go to the Daxiong Treasure Hall with this master to check." ”The area of Faxiang Temple is not very large, and the distance from the abbot to the Daxiong Hall is not too far, and Hongyi Shi soon came to the Daxiong Hall.How far away you can see the square in front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, and the pine oil torches are lit brightly.Nearly 100 monks knelt on the ground.Next to each monk stood two masked bandits armed with steel knives, one of which was already on the monk's neck, waiting for an order, and then the knife rose and fell.Master Hongyi stepped up his pace, and as soon as he came to the square, Huo Yuan came out head-on: "The mage is finally willing to come out?"
I've been waiting for a long time!
”Master Hongyi saluted the masked man: "Forgive the old man for the sin of being late, I don't know what the donor means by leading the crowd to come here with a murder weapon?"
Why embarrass innocent disciples?
Even if there is a holiday, why can't you sit down and talk about it?
”Huo Yuan smiled, his eyes showed a fierce light and said viciously: "Master Jiuwen has compassion and merit in sacrificing oneself to benefit all sentient beings.In the future, I want to witness with my own eyes whether the teacher can sacrifice his life to save the people.Didn't the teacher often say: People do not come to this world to eat, drink, and have fun, nor to be prosperous and rich, but to cultivate the Dharma, to give up their own skin, to uphold the Dharma with their death, and to die in Nirvana?
Now I want to see you sacrifice your life to save the people, as long as the mage dies here, all the monks in the Dharma Temple can be spared death, otherwise they will all be slaughtered!
”Hongyi only frowned slightly, and folded his hands.Reciting the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, it's not a problem for the old man to pass away, the old man just wants to ask Your Excellency before he passes away, what grievances do you have with the monks of Faxiang Temple?"
”Huo Yuan waved his hand coldly.I saw a flash of cold light, and a monk kneeling next to him had already fallen to the ground, and blood was dripping like a spring.Huo Yuan then said, "Teacher, aren't you as afraid of death as the laity?
For every minute you live, a head will hit the ground.You can do it yourself.As long as you dare to sit down, not only all the monks of Faxiang Temple can avoid death, but also all the righteous people in Xia and will kneel to send the teacher to heaven!
”Huo Yuan pointed to a pile of dry wood in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, where there was a pile of more than two meters high.Hongyi Shi did not speak again, he silently walked to the pile of materials, sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and held a rosary to recite Buddhist scriptures silently.Huo Yuan glanced at the person next to him, and a man in black jumped over and set fire to the pile of wood.The pile of materials instantly ignited a raging fire, and the face of Hongyi Master in the firelight was like a flat lake, peaceful and meditative.It was as if the fire was burning only a shell, and the mage's soul was gradually wandering away from the shell and gradually flying to heaven.At this moment, even Huo Yuan also felt the greatness of the master, he couldn't help but kneel down for Master Hongyi, everyone present also knelt down, the monks were crying bitterly Hongyi Master died, Huo Yuan did not lose his words, he led people to quickly evacuate the Faxiang Temple, and the monks who survived the catastrophe began to collect the relics of the master after his death, preparing to build a Buddha relics pagoda for the master in the future, and some people went to the government to report the case.It was late at night when Lu Zhenshou received the report, the matter was serious, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, Lu Zheng immediately reported the case to Cui Long, the secretary of Jinyi Wei.In fact, without Lu Zhenshou's report, Jin Yiwei also secretly controls Huo Yuan at all times.Huo Yuan privately transferred troops to bravely besiege Faxiang Temple and forced Hongyi Division to death, Cui Long had already gotten the news, but he had no way to take Huo Yuan now.After all, Huo Yuan is the prince's person, even if the emperor takes the prince now, there is no good strategy, although the atmosphere is still harmonious on the surface, but he is on guard in his heart.Lu Zhenshou saw that Cui Yan had not spoken for a long time, so he dared to ask: "Master Cui, that Huo Yuan has been doing evil in Furong Town for a long time, and now he is privately transferring troops and forcing the mage to death, this is a capital crime!"
Could it be that the court has no way to take him Huo Yuan?
”Cui Long still looked embarrassed, in fact, Cui Long, who is the No. 3 person in Jinyiwei, knows some top-secret information, but that must not be said.For example, the current crown prince is not the emperor's own son, but the power behind him is extremely powerful.The emperor is now facing not only the problem of the crown prince, but also the foreign army is eyeing the rich Huaxia Kingdom.According to the internal military intelligence report: the Mengnu country in the northwest, the Manjin country in the north, the island country in the east, the Dongying country, and these three countries flew into the sky in a hurry before Chiyou had time to recover, so that these three little fart countries have become the climate, and they are mobilizing strong troops to attack our Great China at any time.The Great Huaxia Kingdom is now in the midst of internal and external troubles, and every step must be cautious, so it is even more impossible for the emperor to tear his face with the prince now, and the prince's subordinates will not be able to move for the time being, the time is not yet ripe, but these cannot be revealed too much to Lu Zhenshou.Cui Long also thought for a while, and then said: "Lord Lu, Furong Town is an important economic and military town in Huaxia, naturally there will be many forces competing here, at present, there are too many places to take care of the power on the emperor's side, and many details are not taken into account, and we as courtiers should share the emperor's worries, Lord Lu, as the supreme governor of Furong Town, although he cannot control the local soldiers and horses of the military department, but your subordinates should also take action, I have heard of the four famous catches in Furong Town when I was in the capital, but it is not ordinary!"
You let them all out, and monitor the city defense soldiers and horses of Furong Town and the East China Town Field Army stationed thirty miles outside Furong City, this East China Town is the 200,000 elite iron cavalry of the empire in the east, and it is also the most powerful A field mobile force in the empire, which can be said to be East China Town, the world!
Your mission is to spy on Huadong Town," Lu Zhenshou and Cui Long kept talking about the wee hours of the morning.After this night's negotiation, Lu Zhenshou basically understood the emperor's intentions, and his most critical task now is to send out the four major catchers to carry out the tasks arranged by Jinyiwei.To be continued.
