The crossing starts from the Datang Shuanglong

Chapter 300 The idea of ​​learning from the West

"Tianfeng Huanpei!"

Accompanied by a clear and melodious sound of the saber, the domineering saber in Chu Tianxiu's hand walked like a dragon and snake, and slashed heavily on the neck of Venerable Emperor Xin, directly slashing his head, making his round head look like a Like a football, it rolled to the ground.

Even if Chu Tianxiu has created a kung fu of beheading and resurrection, but it must be reunited, blood vessels and meridians are connected in the instant after the beheading, so that he can survive the desperate situation of death. Under the circumstances, looking for a glimmer of life.

Otherwise, after the head and neck are separated, even if it is only a few tens of breaths of effort, it will still be fatal, and there is absolutely no reason to survive.

Venerable Dixin's martial arts are very profound, and his footwork can be regarded as exquisite. When Chu Tianxiu caught up with him and was only thirty steps away from him, the old monk cleverly borrowed the advantage of the location in the forest, After holding Chu Tianxiu for a quarter of an hour, because Chu Tianxiu was chasing him so fast that he had nowhere to escape, he was forced to face Chu Tianxiu head-on. robbery.

This old monk is really worthy of being a leader in Buddhism.The means he showed at the last moment of his life made Chu Tianxiu also have some respect for this old monk in his heart, thinking that this man could indeed be regarded as a Buddhist eminent monk.

But it was also because of this that the murderous intent in Chu Tianxiu's heart became stronger, and he must be killed here to reduce a huge hidden danger.

"To the east, twelve miles!"

After Chu Tianxiu succeeded, he just stomped his feet on the ground vigorously to shatter the soil on Emperor Xinzun's body so that all his corpses would be engulfed in the soil so that he would not be exposed to the wilderness. Turning to the east, he seemed to be wearing a high-magnification telescope, and clearly saw Master Jiaxiang who was more than ten miles away and was still running away.

Get rid of evil!

It is advisable to use the remaining brave to chase the poor bandits, and not to be called the Overlord of Learning!
Today's Chu Tianxiu has ascended the throne as the emperor, so he is also bound by the emperor's throne.At this time today, he can kill these five assassins unceremoniously, taking advantage of reason and reputation, without being polite.

But if it is changed to another day, although he can raise the butcher's knife high and cut off the heads of these old monks, there will inevitably be some troubles and entanglements, so most things that can be stopped today must be done today Absolutely, to avoid trouble in the future.

Master Jiaxiang was indeed fast enough to escape, but after Chu Tianxiu used his phantom body skills to his heart's content and chased him away at a speed that can be called super fast, it only took him two quarters of an hour to catch up with him. It fell into the depth of Master Jiaxiang.

Compared with Venerable Emperor Xin who wanted to rely on his own last efforts to hold Chu Tianxiu back for a while, Master Jiaxiang might have been chased by Chu Tianxiu after he had escaped for a long time. This made the old monk look very free and easy at the moment of life and death:
"Since benefactor Chu has arrived, senior brother Di Xin must have passed away, but I don't know what happened to my senior brother Daoxin? Is he all right now?"

The old monk's voice was very calm, as if he was chatting with a friend who had been with him for many years, he had really put life and death aside, and he seemed quite magnanimous. Without any concealment, he opened his mouth and said:

"After I killed Monk Dixin, I came straight to you, so I haven't seen Monk Daoxin yet. However, when I was just now, I had already planted my spiritual power as a symbol and attached it to Monk Daoxin. , so as to firmly grasp the whereabouts of this place. Even if his escape direction is completely different from yours, it will take me more effort, but unless he can quickly escape to a land hundreds of miles away, he will definitely not Might have escaped my capture."

This heavy fact was obviously not what Master Jiaxiang wanted to hear, which caused a bit of pain to appear in his eyes, but it may be because he had already thought of this point and put his life and death at risk, so he did not yell. , uttered harsh words, but sighed, and said softly:
"Good, good! The matter has come to this point, and the old monk has nothing to say. I just ask the benefactor Chu not to take his anger on other Buddhist disciples because of us old fools. The old monk is willing to be slaughtered here, good!"

Originally Chu Tianxiu wanted to kill the old monk directly, but after he heard the old monk's "last words", the killing thought in his heart suddenly faded by three points, and another new idea replaced it , so that he didn't shoot directly, but asked an irrelevant question:
"I once heard a monk say that although there are many Buddhist scriptures in your school, the Buddhist theories known to the monks of different sects are very different because of copyists, dictators, translators, etc., and the various scriptures are not the same. But I don’t know if you have the intention to go to the Tianzhu Kingdom in the Western Regions, seek the scriptures there, and make it popular in the middle land?”

After Master Jiaxiang Wen heard about this, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback. He didn't know why Chu Tianxiu mentioned it, but because what Chu Tianxiu said happened to be a hidden worry of Master Jiaxiang, he ignored it. With his own identity, he sighed directly:
"I don't want the benefactor to know so much about the situation of my Buddhist sect. To be honest, I have thought about this in my heart. I want to send someone to Tianzhu to seek the Buddhist scriptures. It is a pity that Tianzhu is far away in the Western Regions. It is a hundred thousand miles away from Tiangao Road here, which really makes me afraid, as a monk, and I dare not talk about it in vain."

Chu Tianxiu felt sure, and said:
"If that's the case, then today I will appoint you as an envoy to seek the scriptures, and go to Tianzhu by boat to seek the scriptures. I wonder if you would like to go?"

It has to be said that Chu Tianxiu's brain circuit at this moment shocked Master Jiaxiang, not knowing what Chu Tianxiu wanted.However, the old monk could vaguely guess that Chu Tianxiu's intentions were to follow suit and expel him overseas, and with this good monk's imagination, it was naturally impossible for him to think that Chu Tianxiu was in the upper class. Before switching to the unification of the Central Plains, he wanted to attack the Tianzhu Kingdom, which is a hundred thousand miles away, and said in amazement:
"This kind of matter is related to the rise and fall of Buddhism, the old monk is naturally willing to go! But no matter why the benefactor Chu is like this, but the little monk is here to thank the benefactor for not killing him."

Master Jiaxiang is indeed an eminent Buddhist monk who puts life and death aside. He is not afraid of life and death. However, being indifferent to life and death does not mean that he wants to seek death.

Especially after the tragic deaths of Master Wisdom and Venerable Emperor Xin in Kong Kong, only he and Daoxin remained as the backbone of the Buddhist sect. It can't overwhelm the two schools of Buddhism and other six sects, so that the world will completely eliminate the demons, and there will be no peace.So even though Master Jiaxiang understood that there must be fraud in Chu Tianxiu's request, he had no choice but to agree.

So, very good!
Chu Tianxiu's idea of ​​ordering people to go west to learn Buddhist scriptures naturally comes from the novel "Journey to the West", but his real purpose is not so, but because after he ascended the throne in Luoyang, because he didn't have enough money, he ordered people to come from the Five Islands of Dongying. The Money League of the archipelago transferred a large amount of silver.

At that time, Chu Tianxiu did successfully withdraw enough money from the Money League, but she also got bad news.That is, although today's Qiangmenmeng can still do some business without capital on the land of Goguryeo.

However, because the Qianmengmeng's actions were too fast and the frequency of harvesting was too much a few days ago, today's Goguryeo has become a poor ghost, and there is hardly much oil to squeeze, so that the pirates under the Qianmengmeng , after continuing to plunder Goguryeo, they found that the income they had recently robbed was too low to make ends meet, so that many bottom-level pirates had to change their careers and become fishermen because of this.

In the eyes of other people, this matter may not be worth noting, and even Yun Yuzhen, who was sitting there, only regarded this matter as general information, and did not specifically tell about it.But they don't need to care, but Chu Tianxiu can't, because he knows very well that the pirates he raises have actually turned into mercenary wolves, and if they don't give them enough flesh and blood as supplies , Those wolves are afraid that they will turn against their masters because of this.

Whether the old monk Jiaxiang can reach Tianzhu smoothly, and whether he can obtain the scriptures of the West Paradise, is naturally not what Chu Tianxiu is concerned about. He just wants to take a look. After Master Jiaxiang is in charge of leading the team, he can borrow the power of Buddhism to help him After finding a sailing route from Middle Earth to Tianzhu, he can then drive those "hungry" pirates under his command to Tianzhu, so that they can resume their old business there and save some trouble.

However, these thoughts in his heart are not enough for outsiders to understand, otherwise Master Jiaxiang would rather die today than to help the evildoers like that, but since this old monk doesn't know Chu Tianxiu's true intentions, Since I can deceive it again, I opened my mouth and said

"Since this is the case, please do me a favor, Master Daoxin, to help me convince Master Daoxin of Zen Buddhism to let him be your companion next time, and go to Tianzhu together to obtain the scriptures. Otherwise, I can only ask Daoxin Master Xin passed away here and returned to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss."

Chu Tianxiu's words are not considered polite, but at this time, people are swordsmen and I am fish, and Master Jiaxiang is helpless. However, according to the insight of the demon species, Chu Tianxiu chased for more than [-] miles and caught Monk Daoxin After that, he had to let go of the little luck in his heart.

"Haha, brother, it's better to live than to die. Now that the matter has come to this, I will save my little life and go to Tianzhu to take a look and see what the legendary Buddhist kingdom of Tianzhu is like." gone."

Monk Daoxin is the suzerain of Zen. He has never paid much attention to Buddhist etiquette and rules, and even regards those things as a burden. What Chu Tianxiu wants him to do is not to make him betray Buddhism, but to benefit Zen. He couldn't help but refuse a great thing that was beneficial to Buddhism, so his attitude was better than that of the heavy-faced and unwilling Master Jiaxiang, and he directly and briskly said to Chu Tianxiu.

Even Chu Tianxiu knew in his heart that these two monks were not people who were greedy for life and afraid of death. Even if they had to bow their heads to him because of the situation, it didn't mean that they really surrendered to him.But the current Chu Tianxiu didn't care about their real thoughts, why, as long as they could temporarily use them according to their own design, then they would be good monks.

In the following journey, the existence of these two old monks quickly demonstrated his value.

There was something wrong with Chu Tianxiu's martial arts a few days ago, which caused him to have too many desires and it was difficult to control himself. Now, he has these two captives as his help, and let them use the profound Dharma to "sacrifice" himself every day. Although he couldn't really persuade Chu Tianxiu to purify his six sense organs and convert to Buddhism, he was able to help him restrain his desires and prevent him from losing himself as Chu Tianxiu imagined.

I don't know what these two old monks thought of after observing Chu Tianxiu's strange behavior on the road, so that the two prisoners' demands for Chu Tianxiu were unexpectedly cooperative. , It seemed to be turned into two ruthless chanting machines, except for chanting Buddhist scriptures with Chu Tianxiu every day, no matter what, nothing else, it made Chu Tianxiu worry a lot.

With these two kinds of help, it can be regarded as helping Chu Tianxiu solve a big trouble, so that he no longer has to worry about losing control for the time being.If it wasn't for Chu Tianxiu's already written a war letter to Bi Xuan, it's not good to go back on his word, he still needs to go to the grassland for a while, he wants to go to Luoyang first, and solve the messy things piled up in Luoyang ——

At this time, Chu Tianxiu didn't have to have too many taboos. He could already send a letter to Luoyang directly, contact Luoyang directly, and exchange news. He already knew that after he left, the political institutions in Luoyang were still running It's still good, and there is no big trouble. It's just because there is no Chu Tianxiu in the middle to call the shots, so all the officials in Luoyang have become conservatives, and they dare not go too far.

After Chu Tianxiu knew the situation in Luoyang, he couldn't help but feel confident, and at the same time, he accelerated his marching speed a little, which made it take him ten days to rush from the Central Plains to Shanhaiguan.

Shanhaiguan is located in the "throat of Liao Ji" between the mountains and the sea, a key place, and an important military town in the east of the Great Wall.

During the Warring States Period, in order to resist the invasion of foreign invaders, countries successively built border walls on their national borders. After Qin unified the world, they connected the border walls of other countries, repaired and expanded them, and formed the Great Wall stretching thousands of miles from Lintao in the west to Liaodong in the east.Later Han, Southern and Northern Dynasties and Sui Dynasty continued to add tiles and buildings.

Up to the Sui Dynasty, Shanhaiguan had not yet completed the pattern of mutual protection of the city and the city at its peak, but it had become a large-scale customs. Under the current situation where the Turkic people are becoming more and more powerful, Shanhaiguan has lost its military significance, but it is still the traffic inside and outside the customs. The distribution point of main roads and material transactions.
