Chapter 154 Passing Peng Lize
"He did not intervene in the battlefield in Wubo County!"

"Ridiculous! Isn't he easy to fight against injustice?! Since there is rebellion, why not suppress it!"

"You trash..."

"Is all the news wrong?"

"Shut up, let's think about Chaohu Lake!"

When Wei Hao left Wubo County, many flying figures suddenly appeared above the battlefield in Wubo County, and these figures kept arguing.

"He's picking up the strong and supporting the weak!"

A voice sounded, Yu Yun stood up, stared at Wei Hao's departing ship, and said solemnly, "It's also about punishing evil and promoting good. The information collected is not wrong..."

"Damn it, I finally invited the magic weapon, but he didn't enter the battlefield. Could it be that he has the ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil?"

"impossible!"

A figure turned into a big bird, "If he really has this ability, he is imitating the strong of the human race, who is fearless and dangerous. Even if he is given the magic weapon to seek good fortune and avoid evil, I'm afraid he will be dismissive. Just like 'Dachao', 'Suiren' and 'Shennong'..."

These voices disappeared quickly, as if they had never sounded, but on the ground, the slogans of the rebels continued.

"Heaven saves people, it's ominous to sweep the world!"

"Heaven saves people, it's ominous to sweep the world!"

"Heaven saves people, it's ominous to sweep the world!"

……

Continuing on the road during the day, Wei Hao always felt that someone was watching him all night, but this time, he couldn't deter him back, because he couldn't grasp the other party's mental will, and couldn't sense the target.

This feeling is a bit strange, Wei Hao thinks that there may be another evildoer trying to make trouble.

He feels that the follow-up development brought about by the "Chaohu Change" will be very intense, as can be seen from the behavior of many small gods in Wutong County.

The big fish put on the reins again and headed upstream.

Along the way, accompanied by finless porpoises and fish and shrimps, Wei Hao felt strange, so he asked Bai Xing, "Sister Bai, why are these animals following us?"

"It's just because the enlightened ones among them all want to go to Chaohu Lake to settle down. Knowing that my brother has a connection, they want to get a breath by the side. If they go to Chaohu Lake like this, they won't be afraid of being eaten at will."

"Haha, everything has animism."

Several finless porpoises chirped and quacked for a while, and threw up a few live fish to express their gratitude, and then ran eastward.

"Hahahaha, a world where only fish were injured was born."

Wei Hao didn't dislike it either. He removed the scales and gills of the live fish, and fried them directly on the small stove.

When the boat arrived at Peng Li's mouth, Wei Hao felt that the south side was full of monsters, but it was also full of air. When he took a closer look, it was really magnificent with colorful lights.

So Wei Hao asked Bai Xing again: "Sister Bai, what day is it today, Peng Lize is so lively? But the local Dragon Lord celebrates his birthday?"

"Shouldn't be..."

Bai Xing couldn't see anything, but still followed Wei Hao's gaze, seeing nothing, and then said, "Peng Lize's Dragon Lord's birthday is in April, not this time. If we talk about water festivals, it should also be in spring." During the summer festival, it’s already winter, and we have to save rice for the New Year, so how can we make a fuss in the water.”

"That's really strange. The South Bank is really competing for splendor now, with demon spirits and gods intertwined. It's like a rainbow bridge and burning clouds."

Frying fish in the bow, Wei Hao also couldn't figure it out, wondering if there was also a military disaster in Xunyang Mansion in the south?
Seeing the azure mirror falling from the sky last night, he felt that this matter should not be simple, it should be similar to the heaven-sent streamer.

The streamer bestowed by heaven can also be regarded as a blessing from the gods, and the azure mirror is probably also a means of gods.

Just like this, we slowly passed the north bank of Peng Lize. The huge lake is connected with the Yangtze River, making Peng Lize look like an ocean, not an inland lake.

After traveling to Wuxue County, it was evening again, Wei Hao let the big fish rest, and stopped by the riverside of Wuxue County.

Similar to Wubo County, the local area is also illuminated by Buddha, even more lively than Wubo County.

On the bank of the river, one could even see Dharma protectors casting spells on soldiers. For example, the common seals and formulas for repelling evil spirits were spread casually and were not hidden.

On the pier, there is a huge rock with two big characters written on it: Widely spread Buddhism and benefit all living beings.

Looking at the signature, it turned out to be Ren Xingkong, the current county magistrate of Wubo County.

"It's worthy of the 'Iron Pen Exploring Flowers', every word is full of charm."

The rhyme is entwined on it, connecting the hidden stars in the sky, surrounded by Buddha lights outside, and there is a Dharma altar in front of it. Many good men and women come to offer incense, which makes people's wishes more powerful.

"No wonder the brother of the Wei family is not worried about the safety of Wubo County."

"It's not that I'm not worried, but I don't want to interfere."

After Wei Hao finished speaking, he thought about the rebel army. Although this place is not as rich as Jiangdong, it used to be a land of fish and rice, and there was a rebellion. It can be seen that life is really difficult.

The end of the year is approaching, but if there is some rations, who will rebel?
Some things are not convenient for Wei Hao to say directly, he cares about the safety of Wubo County, and the life and death of the rebels, in fact, he is also thinking about it.

In the final analysis, once the two sides enter the game, it is nothing but the grassroots strangling each other, which is really tiresome.

There was a sizzling sound in the pot, Wei Hao turned the fish over, the fish skin was scorched, and took a pot of sweet wine, and sat cross-legged like this, having fun.

When the wharf inspector came over to check his identity, Wei Hao took out the hereditary Zuo Qianhu waist badge, and the local inspector hurriedly saluted: "It turns out that Wei Zuo Qianhu drove here, and I am sorry to welcome you!"

"I'm passing by too, and I'll leave at dawn tomorrow."

"Zuoqianhu, there was a catastrophe in the Huai River, and the victims were very heavy. Many powerful people gathered a crowd to cause chaos. I heard that Qiu Tianxia, ​​the former Qianhu official of Huaiyang Prefecture, was demoted, and started an uprising in the county. Now tens of thousands of people have gathered, claiming to be 20. The army is about to march down the Huai River. If Zuo Qianhu returns home in the future, he needs to be careful not to cross the Huai River."

"Qiu Tianxia?"

Wei Hao was taken aback, "When I passed by Wubo County, I heard the call of a large army in the northwest, and it seems that there is a leading general who calls himself Qiu Tianxia."

"Ah?! Already going to Wubo County? Then...then..."

The patrol at the dock was in a hurry, and he clasped his fists again to salute, "Zuo Qianhu, this matter is urgent, and it is inconvenient for the lower officials to entertain you, so I will report to the upper officials."

"You are busy, you are busy..."

The inspector left in a hurry, and Wei Hao felt that the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

It's just that he has tried tricks with the gods, and he is somewhat unmotivated.

After the inspection was gone, several patrolling monks saluted Wei Hao cautiously: "Good, Zuo Qianhu, I don't know the elves in the boat..."

"Oh, they are all family members, not wild monsters."

"Excuse me. Don't blame Zuo Qianhu, we are also ordered to patrol to ensure the safety of the local area."

"Masters are working hard."

"Don't dare, I'm just following orders. If it weren't for the unforeseen events in the world, we and the monks might still be practicing Zen behind closed doors."

The bald heads did not put on the posture of a master of Taoism, but more like exorcising demons.

The demon sticks in their hands are all covered with copper heads and iron sheets, so it looks like they are not used to light fire, so Wei Hao asked curiously: "How did the masters live in the past?"

"It's just to subdue demons and eliminate demons to earn some food expenses."

"Oh! So good!"

Wei Hao laughed, and jumped onto the shore from the bow of the boat. When the bald heads talked to Wei Hao from the air, they didn't feel anything.

"..."

"..."

Both sides were very tacitly embarrassed.

The bald heads were also very embarrassed and said: "Don't blame Zuo Qianhu, I'm really afraid these days..."

"How powerful are the local monsters?"

"It's not necessarily great, it's just that they come out endlessly. As a last resort, the first temples went to the county government and received the 'Guangji Order'. I was ordered to protect the soldiers and exorcise evil spirits. Only in this way can I live in peace for a few days."

Glancing at the boulder that reads "Extensively spread the Dharma to benefit all living beings", Wei Hao suddenly understood that the "Guangji Order" should be taken from the meaning of these eight characters.

Wei Hao was very tired of Prajna Temple, but he admired the group of monks doing things in front of him very much, and said with a smile: "I am going to Dongting on this trip, but I have not seen any powerful monsters along the way. Masters, if you are afraid , Tell me a few names, if I pass by, I will eat them... No, except."

"..."

The leading stick monk shuddered, feeling that his practice in the Buddhist sect was not in place, so he flinched when talking to Zuo Qianhu in front of him.

After thinking for a while, the leading stick monk remembered something and said to Wei Hao: "Wei Zuoqianhu, there is something related to you."

"Oh? What do you say?"

Wei Hao is very strange, he has never been to this place, how could it have anything to do with him?

"The day before yesterday, I repelled a water demon. Its cultivation base should be more than 500 years. It was no match for it. The head of Guangshan Temple led the crowd and wounded it with the subduing magic pestle. When the water demon fled, it left a The letter was to be sent to a cave in the Huai River, but it was not named, but Zuo Qianhu was mentioned in it."

"Below a thousand years of cultivation, it's all a one-shot job. Don't worry, masters, when I meet that monster, I will help you kill it."

"..."

Seeing Wei Hao being so arrogant, several monks didn't think it was ridiculous, but felt that Zuo Qianhu was really modest.

After all, this is a ruthless man who is expected to break the dragon's claws. He is supposed to be an ancient macho in legends, but he never imagined that there would be one in the world at this time.

"What did the letter say?"

"It is said that Zuo Qianhu will not be able to leave once he comes to Poyang Lake."

"Poyang Lake?"

Wei Hao blinked, "I'm not planning to go to Poyang Lake."

Poyang Lake is a part of Peng Lize, and even the southeast coast of Peng Lize is mostly called Peng Lize after Poyang Lake.

At this moment, Wei Hao was at a loss, and felt even more strange: "That monster is probably mentally retarded, and he didn't even ask carefully where I was going."

"This……"

Several monks were also embarrassed, "The little monk is just telling the truth."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not blaming the masters, I just laughed at the monster for being smart. Why should I go to Poyang Lake? I don't have any friendship."

After finishing speaking, Wei Hao stroked his chin and said, "But this has aroused my interest. It's because someone doesn't want me to go on my way. How dare you block my way even knowing that I broke the dragon's claw. What a shame!" act recklessly."

"Several masters, are there any lack of animals in your temple to guard the house?"

"Uh...not really. Most of the temples in Wuxue County are small and located in the countryside and forests. They are not very rich. How can they afford to raise such auspicious beasts?"

"It doesn't matter if I can't afford it, I have my own way."

Wei Hao chuckled, "If I catch a few suitable monsters during this trip, as long as they don't do much evil, I'll send them to Wuxue County. The masters just pick the ones that are eye-catching, and take them back to raise them. If they need to be fed, I will train them to find food on their own without harming the village."

"And such a good thing?!"

The monks were overjoyed and quickly bowed in salute, "I thank Zuo Qianhu in advance."

"Zuo Qianhu, to tell you the truth, there are nine monks in Guangyuan Temple where the young monk lives, and they need to plant [-] mu of land. It would be the best if they can get one who can cultivate the land."

"Able to plow the land? Haha, little master, you've really caught up."

Wei Hao laughed, quickly took out a pen and paper, and said, "To tell you the truth, last time I fought with that monkey, the Third Prince Wu, and killing monsters was something to eat, but there was a black bull with black horns. , hehe, I am most satisfied. It is strong and strong, and it is an expert at plowing the fields."

"Xizhou Wujiao Black Bull? Such a giant beast, I'm afraid the Guangyuan Temple where the monk lives can't afford it. It's a waste."

"Haha, you little master, what are you thinking about? That cow was bred by me to 'Wu Chao Chuan Lu' Wang Xianggong... Uh, no, I asked Wang Xianggong to bred that black-horned black cow. Calculate the time, next year today, there will be a herd of calves, and they must be high-quality cattle. I will write a letter to Wang Xianggong, and I will give it to you when the time comes..."

"Guangyuan Temple."

"Yes, Guangyuan Temple, just give you Guangyuan Temple a cow."

"Oh! Thank you Zuo Qianhu! Thank you Zuo Qianhu!"

The stick monk was overjoyed. With the cattle, it was much easier.

They are quite different from other temples, because adhering to the meaning of "spreading Buddhism widely and benefiting all beings", things that consume people's power are not allowed.

Therefore, there has never been such activities as leasing farmland. The monks eat and drink, no different from ordinary people.

"Zuo Qianhu, a young monk from Guangfa Temple, there are eight people, [-] acres of land, young monk..."

"Zuoqianhu Zuoqianhu, a young monk from Guangxiang Temple, has five people and 35 acres of land!"

After a while, the bald people became lively, lively and embarrassed, but they were all in high spirits when they heard that there were cattle.

"Haha, I have them all. Take your time. If you don't believe me if you tell me, I have made an agreement with the black horned bull. Let it open a harem in Wuchao County and just breed. Hundreds and dozens a day One cow, after a few months, there will be a herd of calves next year, so there is no need to worry about running out of cows."

"Zuo Qianhu is really wise!"

"My little monk is very grateful, I am grateful..."

Wei Hao became interested, picked up a pen and paper, and began to write: Wang Xianggong saw the letter as if he was face to face. When Hao passed through Wuxue County, he saw local monks doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. ...

After finishing writing, Wei Hao said: "Masters, with this letter, there will be cattle to help next year."

"Thank you Zuo Qianhu, thank you Zuo Qianhu..."

A group of monks were overjoyed, they all happily put away the letter, and then hurriedly invited Wei Hao to have a vegetarian meal, but Wei Hao's words made them give up their thoughts.

"My current appetite, one cow per meal is just enough to satisfy my hunger. Masters, please don't invite me to dinner casually, I'm afraid I will eat up all the food in your temple."

The stick monks did not dare to invite them, and they were even more certain that this Zuo Qianhu was indeed worthy of being a strong man in the world who was like an ancient god.

And Wei Hao was thinking at this moment, what the hell is he so sure that he will go to Poyang Lake?
