Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 68: Xuanzang Learning from the West

It is said that the host of Qingniling Nunnery originated from the monk of Mount Emei. But when she arrived in Qinling, she didn't promote Buddhism. Maybe she was not good at studying Buddhism. Otherwise, how could she make friends with Taoists of unknown faction? As a disciple from Mount Emei, such things are simply taboo now.

At the beginning, there were many Taoist Taoist palaces in Mount Emei. In the late Han Dynasty and Eastern Jin Dynasty, Buddhism used Mount Emei as the dojo of Samantabhadra, and Taoism was quickly excluded. The Taoist Temple of Mount Emei still exists, but it contradicts the Buddhism more.

Of course, Jingniang's disciples don't care about this. They are called Taoism, but they are a bit nondescript. The host of Qingniling An should pay attention to these things, but now she doesn't seem to want to bother; the temple is on the verge of bankruptcy, perhaps she thinks that it is most important to let a group of women not starve to death.

Now the two nuns came to Sanguan not far away hundreds of miles to pay the favor of the female Taoist Jingniang. Then he got involved in mundane affairs and was asked to describe the terrain and climate of Qingniling.

Although Guo Shao has awe of unknown things such as gods and ghosts in his heart, he does not believe in any religion, let alone whether they are nuns or Taoist aunts, they use them as long as they are useful. He was all about making military merits and waiting to marry the second sister of the Fu family.

According to the nuns, the location of Qingniling is actually very good. It is on the "Chencang Road", but it is the most difficult part of the northern section of the Shu Road; it is located forty miles south of Guzhen.

The Shu Road first stretched along the Jialing River, and after reaching Fengzhou, it was more troublesome to cross the dangerous Jialing River; therefore, it was diverted to the west, passing through Guzhen and then passing Qingniling. Qingniling is the most dangerous place with high mountains and heavy rain and difficult roads. There have been many battles; it is not only difficult to attack, but also difficult to walk over the mountain when nothing happens.

Guo Shao listened to the nun's narration, and said that Qingniling was at the south of Guzhen. It was not the goal of this battle to capture Qin and Feng. Secretly relieved in my heart.

A group of women came north along the Shu Road and discovered the army village north of Mighty City, a total of eight places. This information is very useful to Guo Shao.

... The two troops sent out earlier have returned, and Guo Shao and the generals have agreed to return to Fengxiang. But before leaving, he decided to consolidate the two footholds of Qingniling Temple and Lao Luojia in Tangcang Town and establish strongholds.

This is a simple "intelligence system". The terminus is located at Chencang, the end of Shu Road. A private house was rented out, and Luo Yanhuan and two soldiers stayed behind temporarily. There are two strongholds, one is Qingniling Nunnery, where Jingniang’s subordinates pretend to be Buddhist disciples to stay; the other Tangcang Town is no longer stationed by strong soldiers, but two servants of Li Chuyun’s family disguised as vendors , Hook up with Old Man Luo. At first glance, Li Chuyun's servant was not a soldier, but it was easier.

It was the first time everyone saw that dispatching spies could do this; before, the generals had to inquire about the military situation, either by asking the traffickers who came and going, or sending scouts to check the situation temporarily. Things such as lurking and undercover are really little known in the army... so Guo Shao had to arrange it himself. It's easy, and you can maintain this simple organization if you are willing to spend money to support it; as long as the reward is reasonable, people who are willing to take this risk are everywhere.

On the way, Zuo You couldn't help but praise Guo Shao in front of Yang Biao and others: "The master is good at using people, whether it is Taoist nuns or pawns and domestic slaves, they can come in handy. I remembered the battle in Wufang Town. The lord's ability to quickly reorganize the wounded, dead, and even the old and the weak, women and children into a powerful force, can't help but admire."

Luo Mengzi disagreed and said: "Last time I told the general that what the eldest brother is best at is to seize the opportunity, otherwise the brothers will all die in the battle of Hedong, and Shi Yanchao will not survive!"

...

As soon as he returned to Fengxiang Inn, Guo Shao found that someone was looking at him in the window above the wooden building. Perhaps because of the instinctive reaction formed by practicing archery, he paid extra attention to the commanding heights in a relatively open field of vision, so he suddenly found the Li family young lady hiding behind the window.

Then everyone on the left and right followed Guo Shao's gaze and looked up. He is the leader of a group of people, and naturally his words and deeds are easier to attract the attention of the accompanying people. But at this time, people didn't see anything, only a window, and the bamboo curtain was still shaking slightly.

Just as everyone looked back suddenly in the hall of Li's Mansion in Yuzhou, no one saw her. Lady Li's movements are always so fast.

The mind of Lady Li, let alone Guo Shao, the blind man could see. Guo Shao could only play stupid...If it weren't for Empress Fu's promise to him, he would think the Li family lady would be pretty good.

Then everyone went back to their rooms. Jingniang and Guo Shao walked together. Just as they walked up the wooden stairs, they ran into Li. Li stood in front of him, his head bowed and blushing, Guo Shao and Jingniang were both taken aback. Guo Shao hurriedly bowed his hands and said hello.

Li said softly: "I have washed the gowns that Guo Dushi gave me in Yuzhou, and I will return it to you."

Guo Shao glanced, she was empty-handed and did not take anything. Xindao: Returning things is really a logical excuse to meet each other. This trick is still used in later generations. But Li's work seemed a bit jerky, since he returned things, he didn't even take them. Guo Shao had the illusion that he was in love for a while, but his mind was still clear: ancient love can never be talked casually.

It’s just another thing, her face has been deliberately dressed up; the clothes are also new, the upper body is light red silk material, narrow sleeves and short underclothes, there is a floral ribbon, this time it is called a silk; the skirt is slightly colored Deep, the floral pattern is like pomegranate, forming a sense of hierarchy.

But for Guo Shao, as long as his face is not ugly, he can wear anything; what he cares most about is the figure and temperament of the woman. At this time, his gaze was quickly attracted by Li's puffed up chest... It has been nearly two months since he has been out of Beijing, and he has not known the gentle homeland for a long time. It is really easy to be stirred up.

It was almost October at this time, the weather in Guanzhong was already relatively cold, and people's clothes were thicker. At this time, the woman does not have a bra to support, and the clothes of the Han are relatively loose. The chest that can support several layers of thick clothes will never be too small... Guo Shao doesn't like a chest that is too small. Besides, Li's face is also very beautiful, with a roundness of weak bones and abundant muscles. Regarding her figure, Jingniang is the most exaggerated and attractive, but she deliberately covered it up, and she was usually cold, so Guo Shao didn't dare to make a mistake easily.

He was stimulated by Li's soft words, and shamelessly imagined a pair of white|big jade rabbits in his mind. At this time, Li said lightly: "Let me take a gown... There is a hole in a place, and I have already sewed it for you."

Guo Shao stood still.

Li turned his head again and said, "Come on." That tone seemed to be coaxing and seducing him.

Guo Shao thought for a moment, then greeted Jingniang: "You can help me fetch that dress."

He was fortunate that he was more witty about adapting to changes. Unexpectedly, Li's face was aggrieved, and he said directly: "You left Fengxiang for a total of thirty-two days. I counted them. It looks like thirty-two years have passed... What's wrong with me, you Why did you ignore it?"

Guo Shao was speechless, thinking that she was not bad, but Fu Ermei should be better. If you are not responsible, of course both are good...

At this moment, Jingniang walked up and said coldly to Li, "Aren't you going to return the clothes? Are you still returning?"

Such a cold sentence made Li suddenly stunned, perhaps she realized that there was a woman beside Guo Shao. It's not that Jingniang is not easy to be noticed. She is taller and not easily neglected; it's just that she didn't say a word before that, as if she didn't care, and Li didn't really want to care about her.

Li didn't compete with Jingniang, and brought Jingniang back to the house in frustration.

So Guo Shao and Jingniang went to the guest room on the other side one after another. Jingniang threw his clothes on the bed and was about to leave. She couldn't help but turn around and said, "Why don't you accept Li's kindness?"

Guo Shao pondered for a while, and then asked, "Jingniang has heard of Master Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Yeah." Jingniang replied casually, standing just waiting for him to continue to say something.

Guo Shao sighed ~www.readwn.com~ and he continued: "Xuan Zang is a great monk of the Tang Dynasty, so he is called Tang Monk. Tang Monk went to Tianzhu to learn the scriptures. Legend has it that he has gone through eighty-one difficulties along the way. I don't think all of them are difficult. Some are dangerous, and some are temptation. The monsters on the road heard that Tang Seng meat can live forever, so many monsters want to harm him... But some female elves just fall in love with him, **** | seduction, yet There is a queen of the daughter country, who enjoys endless glory and wealth and is very beautiful. She wants Monk Tang to stay and share the country with her. But in the end, Monk Tang was not moved."

Jingniang listened carefully and said: "It's the first time I have heard Xuanzang's visit to Tianzhu about such strange talks. Then why is he not moved? Do you want to say that he sees through the world, and the four are empty?"

Guo Shao shook his head and said, "After Tang Seng takes the scriptures, he can become a Buddha. Compared with such good things as becoming a Buddha and the same life as the sun and the moon, the beautiful emperor of the country is not worth mentioning. So those temptations can't make him tempted at all. ."

"Xuan Zang became a Buddha?" Jingniang became more and more curious.

Guo Shao nodded and said: "This is what the legend says. Retrieve the scriptures to save all living beings and benefit living beings, and then you will become a Buddha after you become famous. It ends with a happy ending."

Jingniang understood, and nodded if enlightened, and then shook her head: "What does it have to do with your rejection of the Li family? What do you want to get, just like Xuanzang to become a Buddha?"

Guo Shao felt that this "saint-aunt" hadn't been a threat in recent months, but he was not a person who could be trusted unconditionally...The Queen's promise, he didn't tell anyone, even Yang Luo and his brothers did not know.

Moreover, Jingniang has completely ignored Zhao Kuangyin recently, and even ignored the Taoist affairs and ran to follow herself... Guo Shao can probably guess that she is responsible for ruining her innocence, but how does she want to be responsible? Guo Shao didn't believe Jing Niang was willing to be a concubine.

So he said casually: "You will understand from now on."
