To put it more seriously, 'I will kill whoever kills me' cannot be regarded as Straw's own rules. This rule was set by Hua Xiaofei for him.
The first thing that Straw did when he left the army was to go to Phoenix City and go on a killing spree. Before leaving, Hua Xiaofei specifically told him: "When you are wandering around outside, you must remember carefully: you will kill whoever kills you."
The Imperial Master was present at the time and laughed out loud when he heard this: "How can you teach your disciples like you?"
Hua Xiaofei always paid great attention to Yan Ding's words. After thinking about it seriously, he added to his apprentice: "By the way, there are two exceptions. One is me. I want to kill you. You can't fight back, but you can run away; the other
The first one is him." Hua Xiaofei pointed to the Imperial Master next to him: "If he wants to kill you, you are not allowed to fight back or run away."
After saying that, Hua Xiaofei turned around and asked the Imperial Master: "Is it okay now?"
The Imperial Master had nothing to say: "You can do it if you think it's okay."
However, Straw had another question and asked his master: "What if Emperor Yan wants to kill me?"
Hua Xiaofei was speechless for a moment, and the Imperial Master responded from the side: "Jingtai is your brother. He knows that you are one of his own, and it is not too late to be happy. He will never touch a hair on your head. You can definitely rest assured about this. If it is true,
One day you commit a serious crime and he has to kill you. I will not let him kill his brother. I will take over the task of killing you at that time." At this point, the Imperial Master laughed: "Then I will kill you again.
Leave this job to Xiao Fei, you can still escape."
Dao Cao understood and nodded in agreement... Bo Jie is the Buddha Lord of the Western Regions. In terms of identity and status, he is not inferior to Yan Ding, but he is not among the "two exceptions". If he wants to kill Dao Cao, Dao Cao will kill him.
In the Golden Dome Hall, the rabbit rises and the falcon falls, and the successive fierce battles only take place in a few moments. Almost all of the important figures are injured, especially the Imperial Master, who has two broken fingers. But he is stubborn and refuses to tell the truth.
, I would rather stab myself with a knife.
Because Bo Jie was injured, Yan Ding hurt himself on the shoulder, thinking that he was repaying the sword that stabbed Bo Jie with straw.
Following Bo Jie's decree, the temple warriors quietly retreated and hid in the darkness again. The eleven people who fought against the Imperial Master also woke up at this moment. They were counterattacked by the Imperial Master's strong internal energy during the combined attack. Although they saved their lives,
The eight extraordinary meridians were all seriously injured, and one of his abilities was considered useless, and even the support of each other disappeared.
The Imperial Master did not leave anyone else behind, and took action to heal Straw's wounds himself. His movements were extremely fast, and the matter was taken care of in a blink of an eye. He reached out and patted his shoulder: "If you can't die, let's lie down here for a while."
After being struck by the sword, the Great Living Buddha also changed his appearance. He smiled kindly and laughed heartily. He said to Yan Ding: "This young man is quite interesting. You are lucky to have such a young man by your side... He won't
Is he your son?"
The Imperial Master was also laughing: "If you say yes, then let's just say it is."
The Great Living Buddha stared: "Yes, it means, if it doesn't, it doesn't, how do you call it yes? Don't fool me." His tone was questioning, his expression reproachful, but his eyes were full of smiles, as if the two were old friends for many years and were making fun of each other.
The Imperial Master's eyes were full of seriousness: "I have a friend who is so close to me that we are the same person. My friend treats him as his son, so he is also considered my son. It is indeed 'regarded'. How could I dare to lie to you."
The Great Living Buddha pretended to be surprised: "Do you still have friends?" Then he said regretfully: "This person must be very interesting to be your friend. Why didn't you bring him along so that I can get to know him too?"
The Imperial Master shook his head and smiled: "That friend of mine is extremely boring, has a bad temper, and is a stubborn person. If he sees you beating me, he will have to fight you to the death. You'd better not look forward to seeing him."
Bojie laughed loudly: "How come you are so sycophantic when it comes to seeing things? Why did I ever hit you? It was just a competition. Bojie is lucky enough to meet Master Shengjing in his lifetime, so how could he miss it?"
If we don’t learn from each other, I’m afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life.”
The national master's eyes were smiling and his tone was relaxed: "You have been a reincarnated soul boy since you were a child. You have received careful guidance from eminent monks and great virtues. You can read countless classics and secret volumes. When you grow up, you have become the master of Tantric Buddhism and the king of the Western Region. You have mastered Buddhism and practiced Dharma to reach the heavens.
There is no way I can compare with you. But no matter what, I have been a monk for half my life. I have read more than a dozen Buddhist scriptures and smashed dozens of wooden fish. No matter how dull my qualifications are, I have been influenced by Buddhism to some extent...
...If you really want to compete, you might as well tell me directly, I will just admit defeat; but you didn't say anything, and suddenly came to me to spar... Look, you are not all injured. You should spar less in the future, I will
There is only one arm left, and it really can’t stand the torment.”
Yan Ding's words were covered in mist, and Wu Da on the side didn't understand them at all, but the Great Living Buddha understood. The Imperial Master referred to the physical contest as a Dharma discussion. After Luo Li rambled for a long time, there was only one meaning: since the Great Living Buddha is the emperor,
I am also the Lord Buddha. I, Yan Ding, am just a monk of the Dayan Zen Sect. I cannot compare with you anyway. But if we really fight against each other, it will inevitably be a lose-lose situation in the end, which will not benefit you at all.
Bojie's laughter became even louder: "I'm not a martial arts lunatic. I've just sparred once, how can it be endless? If you don't bother me, I'll bother you. How about it? Do you need to heal your injuries first?
Take a look?"
Yan Ding treated his wounds with straw and talked and laughed with Bo Jie, but he never looked at his injuries. The short sword was still stuck on his shoulder. The imperial master glanced down and said: "Don't pull it out yet, that's it. I guess you
It makes me happy to see it, so I should give you a piece of happiness."
As if he was afraid that others would not know that he was stingy, the living Buddha beamed with joy: "Seeing that you have a tantric knife stuck in your body, I feel... really happy. While everyone is happy, why don't you talk about something serious?"
Everyone on the Golden Summit was fighting with each other, but the reason was that you wanted to overwhelm me, but I wouldn't let you overpower me. After a 'spar', we ended up in a draw, and the national master suffered a blow.
I have admitted my defeat. Now that the trouble is over, it's time to get down to business.
The Imperial Master nodded and sighed: "I've waited until you said this." Then he got straight to the point: "The Wanggu ghost soldiers are ready and can march eastward at any time. I have also made arrangements for Dayan. After the war starts,
In time, the ghost soldiers were invincible, and the Yan army collapsed at the first touch... I wonder if the 80,000 troops and horses promised by the Great Living Buddha are ready."
In the plot of the two men, the Tubo rebel Wanggu ghost soldiers attacked Dayan. The national division first responded internally, allowing the ghost soldiers to be invincible. As a result, Yan was in civil strife. Da Leiyintai added fuel to the fire and took advantage of the situation. Tubo also wanted to
Lend the Imperial Army 80,000 elite soldiers to be used for rebellion. After the Imperial Army stabilizes its power, it will then turn around and destroy the ghost soldiers. This will not only help Tubo eradicate the rebels, but also increase Yanding's reputation in the country.
In addition, Yan Ding treated the Uighurs with millions of dollars to buy dogs and soldiers and 100,000 wolf soldiers, and cooperated with the Tibetans to attack the Uighurs from both sides. This was not to destroy the Uighurs, but mainly to contain the Great Living Buddha and the Imperial Advisor when they plotted against Yan.
The Uyghurs saved Tubo from worries; the other was to vent his anger on the Great Living Buddha and retaliate against the Uyghurs for organizing the enthronement ceremony, which was a counterpoint to Tubo's July 7th Day.
Bojie did not rush to answer, but asked instead: "How is the matter with Quanrong? I heard that the gold you gave to the Wolf Lord happened on the border." As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed: "So much gold,
Captured by Yan Bing... Jing Taiping made a fortune in vain, which is really enviable."
One million taels of gold were divided into 300,000 yuan, with a principal of 700,000 yuan. The bulk of it was robbed by Mrs. Bo and Tan Guide. However, the 300,000 gold that was placed in the border town by Da Leiyintai was not taken away by Mrs. Bo.
She had no ability to rob them, but she was not idle either. She 'reported' this matter to the border general of Yan State... This was Song Yang's idea after he treated them with poison in the backyard of the restaurant.
All of Yan Ding's calculations were kept secret from Jingtai. The emperor knew the purpose of the money, but how could the general at the border know? He also said that successfully preventing a huge sum of money from unknown sources from flowing into the enemy's country was a great achievement, and he snatched it back.
It was turned over to the national treasury. Jingtai was furious about this matter and almost killed the general's nine tribes.
Something went wrong with the millions of gold, but Yan Dingfu and Bojie did not explain it in detail. Therefore, the living Buddha did not know that the money was actually robbed by the two groups. He only thought that it was confiscated by the Yan State.
"After the accident, I sent an order to my disciples to raise gold and silver again, and I managed to cope with it. Now the deposit has been sent." Raising a huge amount of money again required more caution than the first time, but the process was smooth sailing.
The reason is that all the masters and masters of Xiemen's lackeys rushed to the grassland to save people, and since no one was making trouble with the imperial master, things went smoothly.
After Yan Ding finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the Living Buddha: "You know this matter very well, why do you ask even though you already know it?"
The money was paid by the Imperial Guard, but the 'buyer' was Tubo, and the people who contacted the seller, the Uighur, were also people from the Great Living Buddha. As for the old model being robbed, the new model being in place, and Quanrong sending more troops to Xiguan, these things were all the same.
Clearly.
Bojie stretched out his hand and scratched his bald head: "It's not like I asked knowingly. The main reason is that I'm very curious. I don't know how much money you have. I was too embarrassed to ask directly just now. I have to talk first."
Yan Ding's ventriloquism was dull: "A small family with three melons and two dates is not worth the concern of a living Buddha."
Bojie laughed and did not ask any more questions for the time being. He changed the subject temporarily and answered Yan Ding's question: "The 80,000 soldiers you want have long been listed in Eastern Xinjiang. You can take them whenever you want. However,
…You haven’t forgotten their worth, have you?”
"If one person is lost, the compensation will be twenty taels. Don't worry, the living Buddha, I remember it firmly." Seeing that Bojie was always thinking about money, Yan Ding's tone gradually became calm.
Bojie explained seriously: "It's not that I'm being pretentious, nor that I'm stingy. The main thing is that I have to do my best to help you. These 80,000 people given to you are truly the elite of my plateau, and all of them are the best in a hundred."
, even if one is broken, I will feel distressed for a few days."
Yan Ding didn't talk around in circles with him and asked directly: "Want to increase the price?"
Bojie's eyes lit up and he leaned forward: "If you think so too, that would be great..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yan Ding sneered: "Twenty taels of gold per person is not a small amount. The Great Living Buddha has traveled all over the world and can't find such a price."
Yan Ding's tone was firm, and Bojie chuckled and said: "Forget it, it's not easy for you. Forget it, let's not mention it. It's still the original proposal. If someone dies, you will pay me twenty taels of gold...
By the way, I haven’t mentioned it before, how can I give this money?”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and patted his bald head: "I am a person who gets irritable whenever money matters come into play. It is inevitable that I don't think comprehensively. Don't be surprised. I think you are also wrong. Your thoughts are much more detailed than mine. I
If you didn't expect it, you have to mention it, why don't you have to worry about everything."
Yan Ding ignored his nonsense and just followed the topic, saying calmly: "What do you mean how to give this money? You give me 80,000 soldiers, and I will return 70,000 in the end, and then add 200,000 gold, how much difference is there?
Man, I’ll pay the price and pay it back to you, that’s it.”
Bojie laughed loudly: "Fortunately, I asked you something! It's not right, it's really wrong. Look, you can use these 80,000 soldiers however you want. When there is no war, you have to let them sing
It's up to you to listen to the tunes of the plateau... But what do I have to rely on? If you don't even come back, wouldn't I have thrown away 80,000 men in vain? If you take people away, you have to leave them for me.
Are you going to make a 'guarantee'? Your method of settling the bill is useless."
The Great Living Buddha spoke in a consultative tone and said his own plan: "Don't worry, I won't increase the price. It's just a change in the process. It's 20 taels per person, and 1.6 million taels for 80,000 people. You give the money first."
Come here, and then take the people away. When you come to the throne in the future and return my troops and horses, we will settle the accounts. I will deduct a few twenty taels for the few people missing, and return the rest to you. Of course, you
If even a small amount is returned to me, I will give it back in full with all the gongs and drums. This is the money that men and women work hard for, and I really can't bear to earn it."
Yan Ding sneered and said nothing.
Bojie waited for a while, and when he saw that he was still silent, he asked with concern: "Why don't you say anything? But you are short of money? Haha, no, you have money... cough, forget it, think about Buddhism at the same time
Yimai, I’ll take a big step back. You don’t need to deposit the entire price, just cut it off in half. You deposit 50% first, 800,000 taels, is that okay?”
As he said that, Bo Jie's tone suddenly turned cold: "It can't be any less, otherwise I won't be able to explain to them. We Gaoyuan children are not as obedient as you, the people of Da Yan. Everyone has anger in their hearts. If you care too much,
These few taels of gold and silver have angered them and they refuse to go with you, and there is nothing I can do about it."
Yan Ding's eyes were calm: "The ghost soldiers are waiting in arms, and a big plan is coming soon. I won't be able to get 800,000 taels of gold in a while. If you must see the money before you are willing to lend troops, we don't need to talk. That's it.
It's time to leave. You go and work on your Qiqi Daqing. I'll tell Wanggu that there is no need to attack Yan. What they did before will be used to do what they do in the future."
Ouda on the side immediately shouted sharply: "Bold!"
The Imperial Master slowly turned his head, glanced at Uda, and suddenly a smile appeared in his eyes: "You must never speak again, remember, remember."
The iron face was cold, strange and stiff, but there was a smile in those dim red eyes, and Uda felt a chill in his heart.
Bojie waved to his disciples and scolded him in Tubo dialect. Then he turned to the Imperial Master and said with a smile: "Look at you, you were joking and laughing just now, but in the blink of an eye you became anxious. After all, you are also a disciple of Buddhism, so you have to
Some self-cultivation skills are not... It doesn't matter if you don't have cash. You can slowly make up the money. It doesn't matter if it takes a year and a half. I can wait... But big things wait for no one and you can't delay them. Or like this, can you write me a note first? There is a piece of black and white writing on it.
Document, I can at least give you an explanation."
This time the Imperial Master hesitated and nodded: "Bring me a pen and paper."
Bojie kept waving his hands: "No hurry, no hurry, I haven't finished talking yet. It is our Tubo custom that before soldiers go to war, they must first reward them to boost their morale. They go to fight for you. I shouldn't pay for this money...
…”
Before he could finish speaking, the Imperial Master interrupted and said, "I'll give you a loan book worth one million gold."
Bo Jie ordered the people to put out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the Imperial Master wrote a loan letter crookedly with paper and pen, with all the signatures and signatures. Everyone is sensible, and there is no way they can hide any details. Yan Ding did not keep any secrets.
He was careful and did not forget to take off his gloves in the end, drawing a smear of pus and blood, his unique secret technique.
Bojie read the borrowed book and smiled with satisfaction. After the ink and blood stains were dry, he put it in his arms. He seemed to have remembered something again and said to the Imperial Master: "Didn't I just say that I wanted to talk about something serious?
, and ended up getting involved in annoying things like sending troops and going to war."
It turns out that those things he just said were not serious matters. Yan Ding shook his head indifferently: "What is your serious matter?"
Bojie said with great interest: "It's my July 7th celebration. You are the most distinguished guest among the distinguished guests, and you are also the richest man in Middle-earth. I really can't help but want to ask you what gift you brought me."
The rap of the bamboo pole of the Great Living Buddha became louder and louder. Yan Ding laughed, put one hand behind his back, looked at Bojie, and said slowly: "Monk Shengjing wishes the Living Buddha a long life and a prosperous age in Tubo that has never been seen in ancient times."
After saying that, Yan Ding stopped talking. His meaning couldn't be clearer...a gift? It was this neither salty nor bland congratulations.
As if unwilling to give in, the Great Living Buddha waited for a while and finally understood what Yan Ding meant. He did not hide the disappointment on his face and cursed a few words in Tubo dialect that he knew Yan Ding could understand, and then he was full of joy again.
: "Thank you for your kindness. This word from you can be compared to a gift worth millions of gold..." With a half-assed politeness, Bojie changed the subject again: "I got a treasure recently, but it's a pity that others
They are short-sighted and most of them don’t know the goods, so it’s pointless to show them. It’s rare for the Imperial Master to come to visit, so I’d like to invite the Imperial Master to appreciate it together.”
After speaking, he gave a few instructions in a loud voice, and a Golden Palace warrior came out, holding a brocade bundle in his hand, and placed it respectfully between the Great Living Buddha and the National Master.
The Great Living Buddha stepped down from the throne and opened the baggage with his own hands... Inside the baggage was a piece of leather. With a flick of Bojie's wrist, all the leather was unfolded, all four limbs were complete, and the facial features were still there. It was a piece of skin that was 'exquisitely handmade' and perfectly peeled off.
The human skin underneath.
Even Wu Da didn't know what the master's intention was. He raised his eyes to look at the human skin and felt that it looked vaguely familiar. He used his eyesight to look carefully and was shocked. Although he had turned into skin and no longer had a full human form, this time
All the characteristics of his life have been retained, including the red mole on his face, the birthmarks on his arms, and the missing tail toe on his left foot... He is indeed an acquaintance, Khenpo Kichak.
The two most trusted people under the Great Living Buddha are his close disciple Uda and the chief manager of the Chai Tsota Pagoda Palace, Khenpo Kichak.
In the past few days, Uda had not seen Khenpo Kichcha, and he had not returned from a business trip. Unexpectedly, he was skinned alive by the great living Buddha. But Uda was still a little confused, and the great living Buddha thought Khenpo Kichak's skin was
Baby, show me to Master Yan what it means.
However, Uda was not slow in thinking. He suddenly realized it after thinking about it for a moment, and then broke out in a cold sweat.
