Chapter 127 – Quarrelsome Sounds of Buddha

The southern dynasty has its own court, but the same official position, rank compared to the northern royal court reduced by half a grade. The old generation of the remnants of the first into the territory of North Mang, some seniority status are superior enough of the Central Plains family, have seen the royal tent disagreements at every turn to fight the scene, at that time doubly shocked, can not imagine that such a barbaric court can be called to the plate has been a unity of the spring and autumn of the Liyang dynasty. Later, the female emperor to open grace, the South Dynasty was established, the temple is obviously to Wenqi elegance many, the great hall of quarrels, some red face will certainly have, but more than a decade has not been like today’s quarrels, noisy to become rolled up sleeves to fight, this is all due to the southern border of the new smoke, the 10,000 Dragon Elephant Cavalry slaughtered the border town of Wazhu, if the first battle will be successful and then stop just, and then in the The second son of the king of northern Liang led a roundabout raid on the next major town of Junzi Pavilion, six thousand dragon elephant army even ate up eight thousand troops, the southern dynasty two big defeats has been the undisputed fact of the board, the situation has not only the eyebrow, but also scrape the bones of the pain, in addition to the kind of shentong can’t dare to go back to the rest of a few handful of great generals all coincidentally shut up and not say anything, above the hall with each other occasionally have a look at each other, but also slightly swinging his head and sighing. On the contrary, those a word big surname high Hua family of civil officials noisy days, in which there is a dead fat man dressed in purple clothes of the Lord of the most ferocious, almost the martyrdom of the country’s Hong Guan ancestors eighteen generations have been pulled out and scolded again, he did not only scold which finger finger pointing haphazardly pointing soldiers of the civil officials, and even a few of the old generals are given to the innuendoes pocketed into the lesson together.

This fat man spit in all directions: “This son of a bitch surnamed Hong fishing for fame and reputation, even if I live, I also want to take the knife to stab him to death! Wazhu City is located on the height of the green tile basin, cavalry charge innate advantage, you despise the Dragon Elephant Army, out of the city to fight on the out of the city, even bold enough to let the straw man to lead troops to the bottom of the slope, what, bent on the North Rang Cavalry to start a fair fight with the complete and complete? Hong Guan not claimed to be familiar with the book of war ten million volumes? Did you read them all in your stomach and shit them out? Hong Guan was the favorite student of which old general, I don’t remember too well, who dares to remind me?”

The temple hall people quietly looked at an old general who closed his eyes and rested his soul, the great general had crane hair, excellent qi nourishing kung fu, ancient wells, it seems that he does not intend to trifle with Fatty Dong.

Dong fat man’s cheeks fluttered, and pointed to a big man who was in charge of the third grade of the household department of the Southern Dynasty, “It took two big armies, Wazhu and Junzikan, to knock out half of the Dragon Elephant Army of Beiliang, and you motherfucking even said to me to let the border army of Ligu Maolong and the two places to take the initiative to pursue the attack, so what, these 14,000 men and horses are not human beings, but all of them are your Yuan Zhen’s family’s attendants’ maids, and you say that you can kill or kill and say that you can give away the people? You, old man, do have a family that is not afraid of squandering its spirit, but it is just a child’s play at the expense of His Majesty!”

That aged civil official was so angry that his face was green with anger and righteousness, he fought with that fat man, only his voice trembled: “My North Mang’s national prestige cannot be insulted! My soldiers of the Southern Dynasty will not be insulted!”

Fatty Dong’s words are mean to the extreme, glaring: “Dead old thief, good to keep your household department of a three-quarter of an acre of land to get oil, and then overstep the rules of talking about the military, I give you a mallet to let you into the coffin! Don’t think that your granddaughter with a pockmarked face throws her eyes at me, I won’t clean you up!”

The old man was so humiliated that he fainted on the spot and had to be carried out.

A young official who had jumped through the dragon gate by virtue of the imperial examination could not stand it and said softly, “That second son of the Northern Liang King is heartless, killing 9,000 people is not enough, but he still wants to massacre the city afterward, he is clearly a madman. If the Northern Liang cavalry is bent on ignoring the two towns of Ligu Maolong, and heading north in a straight line, they will soon be hitting us here. Do you really want the generals to disregard the layout of the defense line and mobilize troops to come here? In case it is that sound east strikes west, with a lone army to pull our dynasty too much military power, Xu Snapu personally leading elite favoring the north-east, coupled with Gu Jiantang’s eastern line of march, it will be difficult to cope with. We can’t be led by the nose by Northern Liang, I’ve heard that General Dong never counts the small gains and losses in leading his troops, it seems that today is not quite the same ah.”

This had high school top for the empress of the green eyes of the new nobility officials look great, voice is not big, just the old Ministry of households fainted in anger, the great hall of the needle can be heard, and what he said is not without purpose, it is extraordinarily seem to be full of gas.

Fatty Dong squinted and sneered: “Pedantic showman on paper, and so you have killed people have seen blood and then come to reason with your grandfather Dong.”

The young official reported with a cold smile, and also not with this luck to the fat man endless stalking, point to the point, have taken a position on it. In the future, if he was right in his words and Her Majesty the Empress settled her scores in the fall, it would be tantamount to stepping on Fatty Dong, invariably raising a large step of prestige for himself. But did not wait for that day, an old general’s remarks let him be ashamed of himself, it is the first to the Spring and Autumn relics identity to seize the military power of the general Huang Song Pu, the southern dynasty now, although there is a great later on the trend, his majesty is known as half of Xu Xu Snapdragon Liu Gui, as well as pariahs to join the army of Yang Yuanzan two generals have begun to cover the momentum of the Huang Song Pu, but where do not talk about seniority, and Yang Yuanzan himself was once Huang Song Pu, half of the pawns, and the generals are not the same, but they have been the same. Half of the pawn, and also Song old general is willing to go to rule Dong Zhuo this head of the devil, so Huang Song Pu in the southern dynasty to speak, the weight can be said to be the most important. Brewed a big trouble Hong Guan from the general Huang Song Pu disciples, in the temple is also difficult to escape by the fat man Dong scolding Samuel.

Surprisingly, this time, the old general is actually on the same camp with Dong Zhuo, “The book of war is dead, the person who leads the army is alive, the sand field against the battlefield, you have to think about the opponent’s temperament first. First of all, this time, the Dragon Elephant Army first shocked our dynasty border line, do not take prisoners, and even the slaughter of the city is inevitable, the policy of wistfulness and softness, for the Liang and Mang both sides are a joke. Secondly, as Dong Zhuo said, the original intention of the Dragon Elephant Army is to not hesitate to detour and eat the four towns of Wazhu Junzikan Ligu Maolong, as for the battle can survive a few people, I think Xu Snapdragon does not care about, the force of that amazing teenager will not be even more interested in it. With a lone army and a battle, do not expect to defeat half of the military power of the southern dynasty, but the collapse of the southern dynasty is not easy to use more than ten years of time to build up the morale and popularity of the people, which is the heart of the North Liang scourge. The next big war opens, the entire army of Northern Liang nest, the hoofs of the trampled, has had a warning, ask who dares not surrender? Third, I guess a drum to the north of the Dragon Elephant Army after the inevitable follow-up forces to follow up, perhaps 50,000 people, whether or not to attack, and no certainty, can fight or not, if the Dragon Elephant Army swallowed away from the Valley of the Maolong, that is really going to be a big fight, can not be eaten off, we can be considered to be a respite. As for the matter of Liu’s concern, the Northern Liang Army is trying to tilt the military strength of our frontier to the west, tearing a hole for the army to break through in the northeast, of course, not without a slight possibility, but perhaps Liu is unaware that, in order to prevent the Northern Liang Army from merging with Gu Jiantang’s eastern front, the big pocket of the central line over the years, the Northern Liang Army, even if they let them push forward for eight hundred miles in one breath, filling in 160,000 troops, may not necessarily be full in the aftermath. When it comes to that, it’s not up to us, or even the king of Beiliang and Gu Jiantang, it’s up to His Majesty and the son of Zhao to make the final decision. This matter of the center line, it’s inconvenient to say more, and it’s impossible to go into detail, so I hope Servant Liu will bear with me.”

The young official was terrified, still harboring a few moments of complacency of having the South Court Grand King Huang Song Pu himself explaining the confusion, arched his hand and said in a deep voice, “It’s Liu Shu who is shallow in his knowledge.”

Huang Song Pu as the king of the South Court, nominally in charge of the South Dynasty 400,000 troops, but His Majesty the Empress has always supported the North Mang generals and hold the order of the section of their own government, self-contained system, each other’s elbows, coupled with the Huang Song Pu gradually retired from the background over the years, the so-called king of the South Court title, sooner or later, it is someone else’s bag of goods, if not for the emergency of this war, had to step in to mediate, he had already faded out of the vision of the South Dynasty. Huang Song Pu and Liu Gui Yang Yuanzan two generals have always been incompatible, for Dong Zhuo can not talk about half a good feeling, only really to the chaos, Huang Song Pu feel stretched to the limit, especially the only take the hand of Hong Guan died in battle, but also to let the old generals disillusioned.

A clan leader of the A character clan frowned and said, “Since that lone army is going to attack Ligu Maolong regardless of the consequences, is it possible to let the remaining 4,000 riders of Northern Liang roam the territory?”

Liu Gui was known to have a good relationship with that fat man, but at this moment, seeing that dead fat man’s eyes rolled back in his head, the tall and powerful old general was still furious and approached that fat man with a strong kick, “You’re a scoundrel who doesn’t want to make any profit, you’ve spilled a lot of spit and don’t want to solve this mess? The king of the Southern Court has spoken for you, why didn’t you climb up the ladder this time?”

Dong Zhuo looked puzzled, “The 4,000 Dragon Elephant Army is fine, but that Ren Tu’s second son is really tricky, in case the two sides face off, and he takes the general’s head from amongst the ten thousand soldiers and kills me, my two beautiful daughters-in-law will become widows, and they will not cry themselves to death?”

Liu Gui raised his leg to kick again, the fat man hurriedly jumped away, the old general laughed and scolded, “Your little daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Tibing Mountain Lord, will you not have any powerful fighters by your side? If you don’t dare to go, go to Tibing Mountain to call for help, and it’s best to bring that person along with you to the Valley. You’re allowed to take 8,000 men to the valley, but no more. If His Majesty is to be held accountable, I’ll take the blame for you! If you dare to bring one more soldier or one more soldier, just pretend that I have not said this before.”

Dong Zhuo said, “Really? Don’t turn your back on me afterward, the whole court can hear you now.”

After saying this, Dong Zhuo muttered with a blank stare, “Damn, it seems that none of them are willing to come forward to prove my innocence.”

Those Southern Dynasty pillars all smiled heartily.

This Fatty Dong was sinister, but he was never short of self-knowledge.

Liu Gui said angrily, “Even a fart from me is more useful than your oath!”

Fatty Dong rubbed his hands together and laughed, “In that case, I’ll I’ll do the thankless dirty work of going to Maolong to die.”

After saying this, Dong Zhuo trotted off on his feet.

Liu Gui and Yang Yuanzan, who was a good personal friend, also left one after another, and Huang Song Pu still had to stay in the courtroom.

Liu Gui waited outside the hall until Yang Yuanzan stepped down the stone steps, the latter, who was known for being as careful with his words as he was with his gold, calmly asked, “Dong Zhuo went to Maolong instead of Leigu?”

Liu Gui laughed, “It’s obvious that he’s certain that the Longxiang Army will massacre Li Valley. This brat is lazy to the bone, never standing if he can sit, never sitting if he can lie down.”

Yang Yuanzan anciently smiled.

Liu Gui suddenly asked, “What do you think of that man slaughtering his second son?”

Yang Yuanzan blandly said, “On the battlefield, there is never a long-lived ten thousand enemies.”

Dong Zhuo ran out in a huff, not forgetting to glance back at the great hall, digging his ears, and sighing, “So damn noisy! Alas, when will there be only one voice here?”

※※※※

The Dao De Sect was built at the beginning of the Yellow River, and it was rumored that there was a floating mountain behind the Heavenly Gate, where the State Master, who had already transcended into sainthood, cultivated longevity, and did not ask about the world for half an eternity.

Kirin real person has senior disciples six people, in addition to the two real people were sitting in the Heavenly Gate and the foot of the mountain, the rest scattered all over the North Mang, but when an old monk sat in the Tao Teh Sect Heavenly Gate mist and mist outside, outside the preaching to help the world’s four immortals in addition to the one of the King’s Court, but surprisingly, they all returned to the Tao Teh Sect.

The old monk with kind face and kind eyes did not say a word and sat down on the ground outside the Heavenly Gate.

Heaven’s gate is a towering twin peaks confrontation surrounded by a natural hole, inside the clouds, outside the door there are nine hundred and ninety-nine jade steps, that is, picking up the door outside the close view, but also shall not see inside the mystery.

Beyond the Heavenly Gate, there are eighteen Taoist temples, nine each on the left and right, with an endless stream of visitors, and the year-round continuous incense into the mist, setting off the Taoist sect more and more of a heavenly realm on earth.

A main road leads to the Heavenly Gate.

The old monk was on the flat ground in front of the first step, meditating peacefully.

First, the sword-wearing purple-robed real person came out from the Heavenly Gate and flew his sword down the mountain.

Sword spinning dragon sound more than three days.

The only thing that was not allowed to enter the three feet around the old monk.

Then there are holding a jade ruyi real people from the foot of the floating mountain swept to the sky outside the door.

Purple-robed real people harness the sword, one step at a time down.

Walked for three days and three nights, has walked to the three hundredth step.

Three more Immortal-style real people arrived.

Two of the Immortals were either standing or on their knees at the top of the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain.

The remaining one of the last direct disciple of the State Master pinched his knuckles and walked towards the old monk, every step was extremely slow, but every time he stepped out and touched the ground, it was a heavenly movement.

Half a decade later, the old monk began to read the sutra.

Word by word, reciting the Diamond Sutra.

After reading the Sutra of the Vajra, since the word is not much knowledge of the law is also not much old monk began to tell the saying.

More and more people gathered at the foot of the mountain, densely packed, no less than ten thousand people.

From the old monk after sitting on the ground, nearly a decade of time.

The flying sword has scratched that cleaning whitened robe a thousand times.

The Taoist real person who took one small step and one day of thunder had also walked to a few feet behind the old monk.

The old monk’s entire body was golden and covered in blood.

The old monk folded his hands, having finished all the Buddhist teachings he knew, and softly said, “Amitabha Buddha.”

Many of the incense users guessed how that moment would be pictured, and they all skimmed their heads, unable to stand on tiptoe to see it again.

A white rainbow streaked across the sky, high above the Heavenly Gate.

Behind it was a yellow waterfall!

I don’t enter the Heaven’s Gate, I am higher than the sky.

The white rainbow stops and reveals itself. The white-robed monk says aloud, “The poor monk comes to return the favor!”

It is not polite to come.

The sky hangs yellow.

This white-robed monk, pulled an entire Yellow River.
