Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 219: Hunting
Chapter 219 Hunting
This is a group of very ordinary monks. The Maitreya sect does not have very special costumes, so it is difficult to distinguish them. Buddhism is in decline in this world, but it is not that it has never existed. It is not unusual to see monks.
But near Langya and Taishan, since the Wang family originally carried out Xia Longyuan's plan to exterminate Buddhism, and the Taiyi Sect of Taishan was a Taoist sect, there were two local overlords here, so there really weren't many Buddhists nearby.
Will the messengers of the Maitreya Cult be these monks?
"Logically, this is not the sphere of influence of the Maitreya Sect. They wouldn't be so arrogant, right? Just cover up whatever they want?" Situ Xiao lowered his voice: "Or do they think they have to show their true colors to show their sincerity when they get to Langya? Are they so pedantic? ”
Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "This is simple."
He drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp and sprinkled some more on himself. He was drunk and staggered out of the door.
Situ smiled and twitched the corner of his mouth. This template was his favorite and he learned it in person...
Speaking of which, the drunken step imitated by Zhao Changhe is a bit interesting... Although I have not learned the footwork system, I have already touched its spirit. Most people would think that Zuibu is messy and unorganized, but in fact it is very organized and extremely stable. This Zhao Changhe has already learned a little bit...
Unexpectedly, Zhao Changhe stumbled two steps and fell right behind the monk at the end of the team.
Seeing that they were about to collide, the monk frowned and looked back, reaching out to support him: "Donor, be careful..."
With just this move, Situ Xiao felt that it was not from the Maitreya Cult. This move was quite solid and heavy, like a warrior monk who had been practicing since childhood, and it was not the same as the Maitreya Cult.
Zhao Changhe felt the same way, and he refused to give up, pretending to be drunk and unable to hold him up, and continued to fall into the monk's arms, while brushing his fingers on the acupuncture points on the monk's arms.
The monk's arm supporting him shook slightly to avoid this finger, and the other hand quickly stretched out and put it on Zhao Changhe's shoulder: "Could the donor's drunken step be Situ Xiao? Our Huayan Temple has never offended Shenhuang. Zong."
Situ Xiao: "..."
Zhao Changhe was not embarrassed at all. He was "drunk" anyway. He pretended not to understand what he was talking about and staggered to the side: "There is wine in life~you must be drunk. How can a drop of it reach Jiuquan..."
Situ smiled: "Grass."
The monk who was supporting Zhao Changhe suddenly heard Zhao Changhe's message: "Master, be careful of sneak attacks."
The monk was stunned for a moment, nodded invisibly, and sent a message back: "Thank you, donor, for reminding me."
Zhao Changhe stumbled back to the hotel. The monks continued to move forward and soon arrived at the door of the Wang family. They said to the guard: "Amitabha, Huayan Temple Yuanxing is visiting. Please inform Mr. Daozhong of the Wang family. I had an affair with Daozhong three years ago. Sir, we have a close relationship."
It seems that serious Buddhists have also come to contact the Wang family. After all, Xia Longyuan banned Buddhism...
It can be said that the Langya wind is blowing and the clouds are moving in all directions.
Zhao Changhe smiled at the expressionless Situ and said, "Brother Situ is indeed famous far and wide..."
Situ Xiao said angrily: "You admitted the wrong person, which means that your move of squatting here as an envoy of the Maitreya Cult may seem feasible, but in fact it is taken for granted. You don't know if they change their clothes and sneak into the Wang family at will, not to mention that even if they are really If you were stopped, maybe it was someone from the top of the list, or maybe he brought a lot of people with him?"
Zhao Changhe looked at the scene where the Wang family guards came in to report, and answered the question: "It's just the Four Symbols Sect, it's a dispute over different doctrines. This time the serious Buddhism is here, what's the matter with the Maitreya Sect? Changed I am the messenger of the Maitreya Sect. It’s okay if I don’t come here at this time. Once I come, I will take action to destroy the contact between the Wang family and Buddhism and follow Ban Chao’s actions.”
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud sound from the bow strings on the left and right eaves of the Wang family, and the arrows fell down like locusts, straight towards the waiting monks of Huayan Temple.
The bow is a strong military bow, and the people are well-trained. If the monks from Huayan Temple over there are not prepared, they may be killed or injured in this round.
Thanks to Zhao Changhe's reminder, the monks were on guard. Suddenly, a golden bell appeared. Thousands of arrows clanked for a while, but none of them could break through the golden bell's protection.
Zhao Changhe took a breath: "This golden bell is more powerful than yours, it can actually protect a wide area!"
Situ smiled and said: "Similar to the principle of the air wall I told you before, a momentary defense cannot last long. In fact, it is a kind of air wall..."
Sure enough, the golden bell disappeared, and the monks quickly formed a formation. Wan Xing said angrily: "I know the courtesy of the Wang family! Let's go!"
The report from the Wang family has not yet reached the inside. The guards were at a loss for a moment and watched helplessly as the monks formed formations and retreated. They quickly evacuated the long street and exited the city.
Anyone in a circular position would feel that the Wang family had already contacted their opponents and made a choice. If we don't leave, everyone will really have to confess here.
Situ Xiao finally understood what Zhao Changhe meant by "following the example of the class leader", and his eyes changed when he looked at Zhao Changhe.
It can be said that the messenger of Maitreya is a character! But Zhao Changhe, who could even predict this, is even more of a monster. How did you guess this?
Zhao Changhe actually didn’t predict it himself. How could anyone guess this? He just heard the message from Suzaku, saying that there were archers on the left and right. Suzaku thought it was the one who killed him... But with this information, Zhao Changhe quickly analyzed that it might not be the one who killed him, but the monk might be killed, so reminded the monk.
The result is indeed the case.
It’s strange, Chi Chi has left, why is Suzaku still here?
But I saw a housekeeper from the Wang family running out in a hurry: "Master Yuanxing! Master Yuanxing! The second master invites you to come in..."
The voice is stuck in the throat, and there is no one outside the door. Where is the monk?
The arrows were missing all over the place, witnessing that there had been an accident.
A figure in gray clothes suddenly appeared in front of the door and said calmly: "Maitreya teaches Dharma Qing, and I would like to see Mr. Dao Ning, the head of the Wang family."
Faqing, the list of people is seventy.
As expected, Situ Xiao was right, and he really made the personal rankings.
Not only the human list, but also a bunch of well-trained archers... Although most of the archers can't take action at this moment, otherwise it will become a provocation to the Wang family, but if someone assassinates Fa Qing, the archers can still transform. warrior.
Situ Xiao was a little curious at this moment, how Zhao Changhe planned to take advantage of the situation.
He even suspected that Wang Daoning should not be unaware of what happened in front of the door, otherwise the tenth place on the rankings would be too low... Wang Daoning was probably standing somewhere watching the events in front of the door with cold eyes, and so was he Doing a kind of test and screening.
Does Zhao Changhe still dare to move?
However, Zhao Changhe was seen dazed at the door of the inn for a while, as if he was secretly communicating with someone. In the end, his face turned bitter, as if the communication failed.
"Isn't your Four Symbol Sect at odds with the Maitreya Sect? Some time ago, you killed someone from Jiangbei Buddha. The Dharma Festival is here, why don't you kill him to offer sacrifice to heaven?"
"Discord does not mean sworn enemies. The delay in killing Jiangbei Buddha is because they crossed the border first and violated our interests. It does not mean that I will kill every Maitreya believer I see. After all, they are all against the imperial court. Who knows what will happen in the future? Is there any room for reconciliation and cooperation? You want to use me to please your Tang Wanzhuang? Do you think I am a fool?"
"The Maitreya Cult is fighting with you for the royal alliance."
“The directions are different, so the conflict is not big. It’s not as big as the conflict between roundness and them. That’s really big.”
Zhao Changhe sighed: "Then I have to do it myself."
Suzaku watched from a distance with interest, and she also wanted to know what else this guy could do.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Changhe suddenly jumped onto the roof and ran straight to the direction where the arrow had just missed.
A group of Maitreya believers are gathering over there, waiting to see whether Faqing at the door of Wang's house will be received. When he turned around, he saw a big man holding a broad knife and rushing towards him like a tiger entering a herd of sheep.
The mad sword suddenly rises, and the wind blows.
Before the nearest Maitreya cultist had time to react, his head flew up and blood splattered.
"It's Zhao Changhe! Form a formation quickly!" A group of Maitreya believers were stunned and tried to form a formation to defend themselves. However, the broad sword was swung like a windmill. What's the use of forming an formation!
With a "swish" sound, a knife swung across his body, and a Maitreya cultist was cut into two pieces with the knife.
Fa Qing's body flashed over there, and he struck Zhao Changhe's heart with a gloomy palm: "I don't want to cause trouble, but you came to die first, so just stay!"
"Whoosh!" A Zen staff came from far and near, reaching straight for Faqing's head!
The biggest mistake Fa Qing made was that he thought that Wan Xing had been deceived into evacuating. In fact, the monk had not been deceived at all and had not left at all. When Fa Qing arrived at the gate of Wang's house, Yuan Xing had quietly led the crowd around and surrounded the Maitreya believers.
"Whoosh!" A group of monks appeared on the roof and rushed towards the battle formation.
Fa Qing slapped away Wanxing's Zen staff with a cold expression: "You Wanxing is not on the list, so what if you turn back? I will send you back to the west together!"
Before he finished speaking, the wind started up again behind him.
A heavy sword seemed to be slow and urgent, and it was slashing straight at him.
Situ smiled.
Suddenly it turned into a list of hunters... It's not a matter of roundness. After all, the ninth level of the entrance is also a figure lingering on the edge of the list. Situ Xiao and Zhao Changhe are really called newborn calves not afraid of tigers. How come? Their courage... can they do it with their strength?
The corners of Suzaku's lips in the distance raised an interesting smile, and she also wanted to know.
