    Chapter 149 Save your money

    Dean Zhou seemed to be unconcerned with Qiu Yu's last piece of wisdom that he was able to leave because you let him go. He curled his lips and said, "Speaking of which, he has the ability. There are some masters in Chang'an who can stand on the stage.  Less than half, but he was still escaped You are right to say that I let him go. After all, everyone in Chang'an City who knew about it felt that I was the only one who could capture him. "

    "But there is only one of you in Chang'an City. The Buddhist sect has four heavenly deities and one Maharaja. There are also three thousand golden-bodied monk soldiers who are said to be invulnerable to swords."

    Qiu Yu said seriously.

    "Yesthere are four deities and one Maharaja."

    Dean Zhou shook his head slightly and said meaningfully as he walked: "But when the Sui army marches west, who knows how many monks are still available and how many Tianzun can move? Eleven years ago, we could not  One moved, so there should be at least one this time, right?"

    Qiu Yu didn¡¯t understand this sentence.

    He was not a witness to the fierce battle eleven years ago. At that time, she was not exposed to things on this level.

    But Qiu Yu heard something from Dean Zhou¡¯s words. She was not involved in what happened eleven years ago, but that didn¡¯t mean she didn¡¯t know.  So what she immediately thought of was, could someone else be heading west again?  Eleven years ago, that amazingly talented and beautiful man led a group of people who died generously in the Sui Dynasty and headed west resolutely, and the color of the world changed.  Eleven years later, who has the courage, courage and strength to travel west again?

    She wanted to ask, but she knew that Dean Zhou would definitely not tell.

    I don¡¯t know why, but Dean Zhou¡¯s demeanor changed after he said these words.  Qiu Yu looked at his back and suddenly felt a hint of cold desolation.

    Dean Zhou, do you feel unwilling to do so?

    She wasn¡¯t sure, and couldn¡¯t be sure.

    Changchun Garden

    Qionglu

    Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ouchi Guards Department, bowed and stood in front of the emperor, his face solemn and worried.  The news he just learned was so shocking that from the time he learned the news to the time he rushed to Qionglu to report to His Majesty, his heart beat at least twice as fast as usual.

    News that can make a person like him so uneasy is equally important to the Sui Dynasty and His Majesty.

    After the emperor heard what Luo Weiran said, the brush he was holding fell on the low table with a clatter.  His hand was trembling slightly, and he wanted to pick up the brush but seemed afraid to reach out.  He lowered his head slightly, his face turned pale, and something gradually surged out of his eyes involuntarily, making his eyes wet.

    "Eleven years agoI first ascended the throne as emperor"

    After being silent for a while, the emperor took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, picked up the brush that fell on the low table, and slowly inserted it back into the pen holder.  This simple action seemed to consume a lot of energy from him.  So much so that even his voice was trembling slightly.

    He looked at the area on the low table that was stained red by the red ink of the brush, and seemed to see a large stain of bright red blood.

    "Because of the entanglement between me and my brothers, even the imperial court was unstable. Before his death, the late emperor named me as the successor to the throne. Didn't he want to settle the matter quickly and stabilize the court? But in the end, it was still seen.  It seems that there are cracks in the foundation of the Sui Dynasty. I have been imprisoned and deposed my younger brother less than half a year ago, and I still have no heirs. If I die again, the Sui Dynasty will definitely be in turmoil. "

    "The Meng Yuan people gathered a large number of masters to sneak into the Sui Dynasty eastward. Li Yuanshan detected the news and reported it to Chang'an immediately. Lao Qi traveled alone from Chang'an and went all the way west without even telling me. He was in the rivers and lakes.  He had a wide network of people, and when he arrived at the northwest border, there were hundreds of gangsters following him. In the northwest, Lao Qi led his men to kill all the masters of Meng Yuan.  I thought he would return to Chang'an, but he only asked someone to bring me one sentence"

    "The Great Sui Tianwei, His Majesty's Majesty, can't be violated by barbarians at will? If they dare to come, why don't I dare to go? Let those in the west know that no one is allowed to desecrate His Majesty's majesty, not even a thought. If he is moved,  If you think about it, then kill them and let them know how powerful Sui is."

    When the emperor finished saying this, the tears in his eyes could not stop flowing out.

    "He took his Jianghu friends, and after a battle of hundreds of people, most of them were killed or wounded, leaving only a hundred or so But they walked out of the Sui Dynasty without hesitation, crossed the Langru Mountain and entered the Meng Yuan Dynasty and headed west. How many people were killed that time?  I don¡¯t know how many people have died, but I know that I have never seen this brother again. For me and for Sui, he gave up everything he should have and was not afraid of life or death."

    "Eleven years, I haven't seen him for eleven years."

    ? ?The emperor watched his tears fall and wet the low table, and he also melted the small piece of bright red ink.

    "Eleven years later, did he guess that I was going to launch an army against Meng Yuan? So in order for me to win, and to help me reduce obstacles, he went west again. He knew my ambition from the beginning, and knew that I wanted to conquer the country.  The dragon flag of the Sui Dynasty was planted to the west of Langru Mountain. Before the late Emperor fell seriously ill, the eldest brother asked my seven brothers about their ambitions to consolidate the Sui Dynasty and build a ten thousand-year foundation.  "

    "I only said two words, go west. Seventh brother said five words, help fourth brother go west."

    "I know that it is precisely because of these words that the late emperor passed the throne to me before his death. And because of these words, Lao Qi has never stopped."

    "He has always understood me best, always"

    "But for the sake of the Western Expedition, I had to pretend that nothing happened. Not only did I not give those heroes the honor they deserved, I also signed an agreement with Meng Ge, the Great Khan of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, to remove the northwest area where they had fought and fought.  The place we passed through was designated as a place for trade Does he blame me for not coming back to see me for eleven years? Does he blame me for turning the land they swore to protect into a place filled with the smell of copper?  City? Will those heroes who are sleeping underground curse me every day as they watch the barbarians from the Western Regions enter the gate of the Sui Kingdom?"

    The emperor¡¯s tears were released without any scruples for the first time in eleven years.

    "Eleven years later, he went west again, still for me"

    Luo Weiran lowered his head and did not dare to look at the emperor's face, let alone his tears.  His heart ached because the man who traveled west twice in the past eleven years also had something to do with him.

    Gyeonggi-do is very mountainous, especially the mountains to the north of Chang'an City.  It looks like a huge crescent moon half surrounding the majestic Chang'an City.  Ordinary people don't know much about Feng Shui terrain, but they have heard people mention that the terrain of Chang'an City is excellent and can protect the Sui Dynasty's foundation for thousands of years.  The common people also don¡¯t understand why Feng Shui can protect the Sui Dynasty. Isn¡¯t it possible that those who saved the Sui Dynasty are not those passionate men and women on the border?

    But this does not hinder his good mood. After all, it is not a bad thing for them to have another kind of consolidation in the Sui Dynasty.

    The mountains are half -hugged, and Changan can't fall.

    This sentence has been circulated for hundreds of years. It is said that it was said by an outsider when Emperor Taizu established his capital here.

    It has been four days since he walked into this mountain, and Fang Henshui has been living a humble and cautious life.  He and the young monk carried the old monk all the way through mountains and rivers.  He didn't dare to show any reluctance, because he didn't see any reluctance on the young monk's face.  It was as if the young monk carrying the old monk forward was a matter of course and unquestionable.

    The old monk also sat peacefully on the sliding pole and hardly moved around on his own.

    In the past four days since entering the mountain, Fang Henshui was very tired, but he did not need the young monk to give any instructions. He took the initiative to find water sources and food.  He is becoming more and more like a qualified servant, serving his two masters with all his heart.

    Sitting on a piece of clean bluestone, the old monk glanced at the back of the Sui man who was struggling to climb high to find food. He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Can you tell that he is different from before?"

    "The disciple feels that he compromised because of fear."

    "Why is that so?"

    "Because even if the Sui people harbor demons, they are still afraid of death."

    "Ha ha"

    The old monk seemed to be in a very good mood and couldn't help but laugh happily: "I had the idea to go eastward a long time ago to see how domineering the Great Sui Dynasty was, after the great demon appeared eleven years ago. No.  Before coming here, even I felt that the Sui people could not be bullied because that person used the most direct method to declare this, so I never doubted it. But this time when I came, I found that the Sui people were far less powerful than I thought.  ¡±

    "In this case, what else is there to fear about the Sui people? Just cutting off a piece of flesh can turn a Sui person into a slave If the man who traveled to the west eleven years ago knew about it, I don't know what he would think."

    Chen Ya thought for a while and said, "But my disciple also feels that this Sui man still has unyielding heart."

    "Everyone has unyieldingness in their heart, it depends on how to overcome it. When I was in the Snowy Mountains, I closed my door and meditated. I once thought about how to deal with the large-scale invasion of monsters from the east one day, or what if the Buddha spreads his religion to the east.  Expand. I thought for a long time and determined that the ambition of the Sui people cannot be taken away and they can only be killed. Therefore, if you want the Buddhist teachings to spread throughout the East, you can only kill the Sui people in their prime and even the elderly, and only leave the children to teach them slowly.  I had to be naturalized. Because it was impossible, I gave up the idea of ??going to the East to preach.¡±

    "Now, INow that I understand that I was too obsessed at the beginning, how can there be truly unyielding people in this world?  The Sui people were strong because they had never been defeated, so they thought they would never be defeated.  A hundred years later, this kind of thinking has made every Sui person proud.  But actually Just cut a strip of flesh on them and they will surrender.  Whatever you say, they will obey.  "

    "The Sui people are not indestructible, and the Sui country is not indestructible. After I return, I will explain this matter to King Ming."

    The old monk smiled brightly, and the pride in his eyes was also very strong: "If you don't go eastward, you can't see clearly the facts behind the fog. The pride of the Sui people is such a false pride, and the invincibility of the Sui people is so pitiful  The myth.¡±

    "Master, should this person be brought all the way back to Daxue Mountain and let King Ming have a look? This is what the Sui people were like."

    Chen Ya asked.

    "If there is no need to kill him, it would be better to take him back."

    The old monk said calmly: "However, we may have to kill him today."

    "Why?"

    Chen Ya asked.

    The old monk sighed: "I thought about it along the way. Although this mountain is majestic and vast, it is a dead mountain. There are no living things in the mountain except trees and weeds. The mysterious construction of Chang'an City that took over the world has exhausted this mountain."  There is no spiritual energy, so there is nothing to eat in the mountains, and the dry food that the Sui man brought has been eaten"

    Chen Ya was startled, then thought for a while and said: "Save some, you can eat for a few days."

    At this time, the ragged Fang Henshui climbed back down the slope with difficulty.  Panting, he walked up to the old monk and said guiltily: "I'm sorry I didn't find anything to eat, not even wild fruits."

    After saying this, he saw the strange look in the eyes of the old monk and Chen Ya.  In an instant, fear filled Fang Henshui's heart.

    Just when he was stunned, Chen Ya took a step forward.

    Fang Henshui knelt down almost at the same time, then kowtowed sincerely and said: "Cut my flesh and eat it. I am willing to dedicate myself to the mage."

    As soon as these words came out, Chen Ya and the old monk were stunned.

    After a while, the old monk¡¯s proud laughter floated deep in the mountain.

    Chen Ya asked, "Don't you want to eat it yourself?"

    Don¡¯t eat it!

    Why?

    ??????????????????????????????????????? If you get out of this mountain, you don¡¯t have to eat me.

    But Fang Henshui didn¡¯t dare to say this.
