The Tang Dynasty started from saving Empress Changsun

Farin staggered and nearly fell, and supported the chair to stand upright, and said, "What did you say? When did this happen?"

Fang Ming replied: "I have a very close personal relationship with the precept name of Baoyi Temple. I entrusted a benefactor to deliver the news to me yesterday, but the benefactor only delivered the letter this morning."

As he spoke, he took out a letter and handed it over.

Falin snatched it. The content on it was very simple, that is to say, Huiqing, the abbot of their temple, sent a dead man to assassinate Chen Jingke in order to help Buddhism survive the catastrophe.

He felt that this method was unreliable, so he went to persuade the abbot.In the end, not only was he not persuaded, but he himself was grounded.

He really had no choice, so he secretly wrote this letter, hoping that Fang Ming could resolve this crisis.

Farin said helplessly: "It would be great if this letter could arrive one day sooner."

Fang Ming smiled wryly, "It's so important that I dare not disclose the news to outsiders. The benefactor didn't know it would be so important, so he delayed sending it until today."

Falin gradually came to her senses at this time, and said, "Time is running out and we have no time to delay."

"Go to Zixiao Temple and tell Zhenren Chen right away, just say that we have received news that some villains are going to harm him, and tell him to protect himself in the near future."

Fang Ming hesitated and said, "What if they ask where they got the news from?"

Falin said: "Let's just say that one of our disciples overheard it on the way to alms for alms, and don't know anything else."

Fang Ming nodded and said, "Then I'll say I heard it myself, lest the disciples show their flaws."

Falin said: "I don't care about that much now, so let's do this. You hurry to Zixiao Temple, and I will go to Baoyi Temple to see Huiqing now."

The master and apprentice split up, one went to Zixiao Temple, and the other went to Baoyi Temple.

Longtian Temple is closer to Yonglefang, and Fang Ming soon arrived at Zixiao Temple. When he proposed to visit Chen Jingke, he received a news that shocked him.

"Chen Zhenzhen is not in the audience, master, please come back another day."

Fang Ming was in a bad mood, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know where Chen Zhenren went and when he will return? The poor monk has urgent matters to find him."

However, Dao Tong did not dare to disclose Chen Jingke's whereabouts, and refused to tell him no matter how he asked.

Fang Ming was in a hurry, so he had to say clearly: "When I was out for alms, I overheard the gangster's plot. I wanted to harm Chen Zhenren. Please inform Chen Zhenren immediately to take precautions."

The Daotong was shocked when he heard it, and hurried back to the temple to tell the knowledgeable guest Congqi about it.After hearing from Qi Qi, he didn't dare to delay, and found Wu Shu immediately.

Although Wu Shu was full of doubts, she didn't dare to delay her husband's comfort, so she hurriedly asked people to go to Dongshi to look for Chen Jingke.

Regardless of whether it is true or false, at this time, it is better to believe it or not, and the most important thing is to get the person back quickly.

At the same time, people invited Fang Ming in, and just in case, Yang Tianlu was brought with him to protect his safety.

Fang Ming also knew her identity, so he repeated what he said just now after meeting her.

Wu Shu didn't believe it directly, but asked: "Master is a senior disciple of Longtian Temple, how could he go to ask for alms in person? And where did you hear about it?"

Fang Ming said anxiously: "Ms. Wu, don't ask these questions for now, go and tell Zhenren Chen to be careful, and it won't be too late for you to ask after he is safe."

Seeing that he didn't look like a fake, Wu Shu couldn't help believing it a little more, and secretly became anxious, but said calmly on his face:

"I have sent people to find the real person, now please answer my question first, master."

Hearing the words, Fang Ming's mood eased. Whether he can find Chen Jingke or not, he has already done what he can, and the rest is left to the Buddha.

"Amitabha, Mrs. Wu doesn't need to ask any more questions. I will tell Master Chen when he comes back."

After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and silently recited the Buddhist scriptures.

Wu Shu knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he walked out of the room and said calmly: "Look here, don't let him run away. Then send someone to find the real person, hurry up."

Gong Xun said solemnly: "Here, I will send all the people out... No, I will lead people to look for it myself."

After he took the people away, Wu Shu took a deep breath and said, "He is in charge of raising people, who do you think will harm the real person."

Yang Tianlu looked heavy, and said: "There are many, but the most likely one is the thief shouting "Stop the thief."

Wu Shu said: "You mean Longtian Temple?"

Yang Tianlu shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, but it's absolutely inseparable from Buddhism."

Wu Shu was puzzled and said, "Do they really dare to risk the world's displeasure by attacking real people?"

Yang Tianlu sighed: "Buddhism and Taoism have wanted to fight for hundreds of years. Although there are not many similar things, they are not without exception. Whether it is Buddha or Taoism, it is not surprising that fanatic believers do anything."

"If Taoism needs dead men to eliminate someone from Buddhism, there will be a lot of them. Not to mention, the Louguan Sect can find a lot..."

"Buddhism pays attention to laying down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately. There are not a few wicked people who have been sheltered and escaped punishment, let alone such dead men."

"Although the real person used a pseudonym this time, anyone well-informed can guess that Journey to the West was written by him. It is not impossible for fanatical Buddhist believers to send dead men to attack the real person."

Wu Shu's face became even more ugly, and he said, "Didn't they consider the consequences of doing this?"

Yang Tianlu said: "The real person once said a word, nine out of ten crazy believers have brain problems, they don't think about the consequences at all, and only do what they think is right."

Wu Shu clenched his hands into fists, his fingers turned white from too much force, and said coldly:

"I will definitely find out who did it, and let them pay the most painful price to everyone, so that no one in the world dares to think about real people."

Yang Tianlu glanced at her worriedly, and said: "Young lady, you have to take care of your body. A real person may not be so unlucky that he will be met by a killer. And with Yi Nu following him, nothing will happen."

……

Baoyi Temple is located in Jiahuifang, in the southwestern part of Chang'an City, at the junction of the residential area of ​​common people and rich officials and officials.

To the north is the residence of the rich and officials, and to the south is the area where the common people live. It can be said that fish and dragons are mixed.

Falin hurried all the way to the gate of Baoyi Temple, but found that the gate was closed, he felt bad and hurried to knock on the door.

After a long time, a novice opened the door. Seeing that he was also a monk, he bowed and said, "Amitabha, I wonder where the master came from?"

Although Falin was anxious, she replied patiently: "The poor monk is Falin of Longtian Temple. I have something to see Junior Brother Huiqing. Please pass it on for me."

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, the novice's eyes became moist, and he said: "The master is late, the abbot passed away this morning."

Fan Lin only felt the world spinning for a while, and all the strength in her body was drained and she fell directly to the ground, muttering: "It's over, it's over."

Huiqing's death at this time means that he has found an absolutely reliable person, and there is a high probability that he is the only one who knows the identity of this person.

He died before the dead man could attack, no matter whether the dead man succeeded or not, he could clear the suspicion of Baoyi Temple.

But Farin knew that this trick was only useful to ordinary people.For some people with special identities, no evidence is needed at all, and it is enough to think that you are suspected.

And Chen Jingke is such a person.

Ordinary people don't know Chen Jingke's identity, how can he not know as the abbot of Longtian Temple.Glass, cannons, gunboats, canned food, sugar, etc. are all rumored to have been made by this boy.

If there is something wrong with him, it is not Taoism that will go crazy first, but the court.

Once the suspicion points to Buddhism, there is no need for evidence at all, and the saints will directly attack Buddhism. At that time, it will be a real disaster for Buddhism.

Now he only hopes that the dead man has not found a chance, and Chen Jingke is still safe and sound, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

……

On the other side, Chen Jingke was wandering around shopping with two maids, and five guards were scattered around them.

It can be clearly seen that everyone's attention is not concentrated, mainly because they have never been assassinated for so long, so it is inevitable that they will relax.

The greater role of guards is not to prevent assassins, but to prevent them from being bumped by others, or bullied by hooligans, hooligans, and bullies.

Of course, part of the reason is that this is Dongshi, and everyone's attention will inevitably be attracted by the surrounding environment.

Although there was a shortage of supplies in ancient times, Dongshi, as the most luxurious market in Chang'an City, was full of various items.

Even roadside stalls are not lacking in rare items. Chen Jingke saw a stall selling lacquerware, among which several lacquer boxes were very delicately made, and he bought them all.

Yi Nu and Yu Zhu's attention was on toys and trinkets, and they took many things in their hands after a while.

There are rattles for children, wooden nine-linked rings, pearl earrings, wooden hairpins, ox horn grates and so on.

Chen Jingke was not too annoying, and even had a good time bargaining with them.

Slowly, more and more people came to Dongshi, and it became a little crowded. Chen Jingke had to get close to the two maids to prevent being scattered by the flow of people.

The five guards were not so lucky, two of them were rushed to the side and trying to squeeze in this way, and the remaining three hurriedly formed a triangle to protect them in the center.

However, with the surge of people, this triangle position was quickly washed away and there was no way to maintain it.

Chen Jingke didn't care and continued to wander around.

Walking to a place that sells food, I am going to ask everyone to stop and take a breath, and eat something by the way.

At this moment, someone suddenly heard shouting: "Catch the thief, catch that thief quickly, he stole all my money."

Then the crowd in front of them fled in all directions as if a pot had exploded.

You can vaguely see a man with a short stature and a wretched appearance, waving a small dagger long in the palm of his hand, saying: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, and be careful that I will stab you to death."

Those who stood in front of him avoided.

And behind him not far away, a thick-faced burly man in his forties was panting after him, shouting while chasing:

"Catch the thief, he stole the money I paid for my child's medical treatment."

Chen Jingke frowned, and said to Xu Shanying and Yan Feng: "Too arrogant, you two go and catch him."

Xu Shanying said hesitantly: "This is not good, we still have to protect you."

Chen Jingke said: "Is there any danger here, besides, there are three of Wang Busi and the others, hurry up and wait for a while before they run away."

Xu Shanying and Yan Feng thought about it, so they stopped the thief.

The thief didn't expect that someone would dare to stand up, and he swung the dagger even more vigorously.

But Xu Shanying and Yan Feng didn't pay attention to him at all, and reached out to grab him.

It's just that people didn't expect that the thief was very slippery, using the people around him as a shield to dodge and get into his crotch, he even got past the obstruction of the two and continued to escape.

While running, he taunted: "I want to stop Yeye, you two will practice for a few more years before talking."

How could Xu Shanying and the others keep up their face, and they chased after them, Chen Jingke and others' attention were all attracted by them.

At this time, the middle-aged man who lost the money also chased after him out of breath. When he passed by Chen Jingke, he seemed to flicker for a moment, and his steps suddenly staggered and were about to fall.

Chen Jingke quickly reached out to help, but Yi Nu yelled, "Be careful, real man."

He subconsciously stopped, and when he was wondering, he saw that the middle-aged man had a sharp knife about a foot long in his hand, stabbing him.

The intense fear made his brain go blank, and he froze there, losing all ability to move, watching the sharp knife stabbing his chest.

At this critical juncture, Yi Nu, who was still behind him, swayed and appeared in his arms at a strange angle.

"Puchi..." The sharp knife pierced her left chest half a foot deep.

The middle-aged man obviously didn't expect such a situation to happen, so he couldn't help being stunned.But it was only for a moment, and the next moment his eyes regained the killing intent, and he was about to draw out the knife.

Yi Nu was even faster than him. With a muffled grunt, he suppressed the severe pain and stretched out his left hand to grab the exposed part of the ear knife, preventing the other party from pulling the knife out.

At the same time, with a shake of her right hand, the short knife that Chen Jingke gave her fell from her sleeve. She skillfully grabbed the handle of the knife and slammed it upwards, hitting the strong man's wrist accurately.

"Ah..." The strong man let out a scream and subconsciously let go of the ear knife, then checked his hand and found that he had lost his command.

Yi Nu's unbiased knife just cut off the tendon in his wrist, completely crippling one of his hands.

It's a long story, but in the blink of an eye, everything has already happened.

The reacting crowd screamed and fled in all directions. Wang Busi, Qi Dao, and Yuan Lin rushed towards the assassin with hatred.

It's just blocked by the fleeing people, so it's not so easy to get through.

The assassin was also a ruthless man. Enduring the severe pain after his right hand was crippled, he pulled out another sharp knife from his waist with his left hand, and slashed at Chen Jingke again.

Yi Nu raised a dagger to block her, but her swordsmanship was more suitable for unexpected assassination, she was not good at direct confrontation, and she did not have an advantage in physical strength.

Even if the strong man uses his left hand, she is no match.After a while, he was hacked a few more times, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

At this critical moment, Wang Busi and the others finally rushed over the fleeing crowd and surrounded the strong man.

Seeing this, the breath in Yi Nu's heart finally dissipated, and he fell down as soon as his body softened.
