Li Da ordered to cross the Uighur River, camp by the river, repair for a day and night, and go straight to Hamiwei tomorrow. So he set up camp, buried pots for cooking, drank camels and let horses go, and then had a hearty meal.

Li Da ordered Wen Da to restrain the troops, and he took Li Xian, Chen Lu, Hasan and Nalan, changed into local clothes, and asked Lu Hatu to take them to a famous ancient temple here.

Most of the people here are from the Western Regions, and such ancient Buddhist temples are indeed rare.

A few people enjoyed the scenery along the way, and the fatigue of running around and the unhappiness of the two angels disappeared.

They walked to a large market town, which was really densely populated and crowded with people. The skin colors were mixed, people spoke various languages, and they were bargaining. It was a hundred times more lively than Ma Cheng.

Luhatu inquired while walking, and several people soon came to the ancient temple. It turned out to be a lamasery, Tibetan Buddhism.

This large temple covers an area of ​​more than 20 acres. A tall archway is erected 30 steps away from the gate. There is a large plaque on it that reads: "Edict to build Baoguo Temple", signed in the 14th year of Wei Taihe.

Chen Lu told everyone that it was built during the Taihe period of the Northern Wei Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Xianwen Tuobahong. At that time, it was under the jurisdiction of Yiwu City in the Rouran Kingdom. The city owner Shang Gaozi surrendered to the imperial court. Yiwu County was established here and a temple was built to commemorate it.

This Huguo Temple became Tibetan Buddhism in the previous dynasty. The former Khanate was divided from east to west. The place suffered wars and many things were destroyed.

This Baoguo Temple is different from other lamaseries. There are also monks from the Central Plains practicing here. Several people have already learned Chen Lu's knowledge, and they can be said to have learned from ancient and modern times.

Several people walked in, bowed to each place, and gave some money and materials.

The young novice had already reported to the abbot. The abbot came out with a monk from the Central Plains to greet them and led them to the monk's dormitory. Chen Lu talked with them in Mongolian for a while. Li Da told Chen Lu that he wanted to draw a fortune.

The abbot took out the tube of lottery tickets. Li Da burned incense with his clean hands, took the tube, knelt down and turned it devoutly. Everyone held their breath, and even after he turned it for a quarter of an hour, no lottery ticket came out.

While they were getting anxious, everyone saw that the light in the room suddenly dimmed, and everyone was stunned. At this time, a fortune stick jumped out of the lottery tube, flew up in the room, turned over several times in succession, and seemed to fall into the lottery tube again, and hit it.

On the eaves of the tube, it flew out again, spinning around in circles.

Everyone's eyes followed it, and it seemed to be playing with a few people. It looked like it hadn't had enough fun, and it hit the ground heavily.

Just as Li Dakang was about to pick it up, it flew up again like before. The abbot and the Central Plains monk quickly knelt down. Chen Lu and the others couldn't stand any longer, so they also knelt down.

At this time, the fortune teller fell firmly into Chen Lu's hand. Everyone was surprised.

Chen Lu stood up and handed it to the abbot with both hands. The abbot glanced at it and handed it to Chen Lu. Chen Lu looked at it carefully and saw that it was written in both Mongolian and Chinese characters.

Chen Lu read it out: "Father and son do not recognize each other, and it is difficult for husband and wife to meet each other. On the day of family reunion, when all living beings become immortals."

After Chen Lu finished reading, he handed it to Li Da. Li Da asked, "Master Abbot, can you explain it to me?" After saying this, he gave Hasan a wink, and Hasan took out a piece of silver cake and handed it to the abbot.

Chen Lugang wanted to translate for him, and the abbot waved his hand and said in Chinese: "Although these few are in white dragon fish clothes, I know that they are from the government. The way of heaven is unclear, and we ordinary people dare not reveal the secrets of heaven. But please remember, adults.

The signature will be fulfilled in the future."

Chen Lu glanced at Li Da and was about to speak when Han Liuer hurried in and whispered a few words in Li Da's ear.

Li Da said: "That's it for today. We still have some secular affairs. I'll take my leave. I'll come back for advice when I have time. I'll thank you two masters."

Several people walked to the square, and Li Da said: "Han Liu'er just said that the Wei Department sent someone to greet them and they will go back immediately."

Several people returned to the Chinese army's tent, and Wen Da was drinking tea with his guests. They were two tall Mongolians: one was a young man with a white face and no beard, and the other was a middle-aged man with a curly beard. This middle-aged man wore a sixth-grade uniform.

Military attache clothing.

Li Da said, "Please stay with me," and the others went to change their clothes and returned to the main tent. The two guests asked Saint Ann, performed military salutes, and stood waiting to be questioned.

Li Da asked: "How is Prince Zhongyi?"

The beard replied: "Thanks to the Holy Spirit, it's very good."

Chen Lu translated and asked again: "Are Changshi Zhou An and Marshal Ma okay?"

"Qiu Bearded" said: "Zhou Zhang Shi An is fine, but now he is not Marshal Ma, but Marshal Harazhang, and he is also very good. The prince and Marshal knew that the angel was camping here, and felt uneasy, so they specially sent their subordinates here.

Welcome the angels.”

Li Da signaled Chen Lu to continue asking questions. The two of them did not speak Chinese. Chen Lu asked: "How far is it from Wei Si?"

"Qiu Bearded" said: "There are still fifty-five miles. We have just arrived at the end of the day, and we will be there in two hours of walking. By now, the sky is getting longer, and the sun will not set until the beginning of the month."

Ha San was a little worried. Wen Da could see that the adults didn't seem to trust the two of them, so he said, "Sir, the two of you have already passed the cards, and there is no problem. Han Liu'er has also interacted with them."

Chen Lu didn't understand why Han Liu'er had anything to do with them. He turned to look at Han Liu'er. Han Liu'er quickly said: "When the stolen goods were stolen in Macheng, they happened to be there on business and helped us a lot."

Chen Lu was respectful and said: "Two generals, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. When I get to the Wei Department, I will definitely bring a message to Marshal Ha to ask for your credit. I will discuss it with the envoy now." Put these two things together.

All the people's words were translated to Li Da.

Li Da pondered for a moment, and Li Xian hurriedly said: "The prince and the commander-in-chief came to invite us, but they were disrespectful. We rely on them a lot this time, and we need a lot of supplies there."

Needless to say, Li Da and others understood the meaning behind him. Li Da said: "In this case, without further delay, let's order the departure."

Chen Lu felt a little uneasy. After thinking about the whole process, he realized that there was nothing wrong and he felt relieved. He had been a little nervous for a while, the wind was trembling, and everything was in danger. Seeing that the chief officer had already made up his mind, he went back to take care of things.

The weather was fine and the sun was already heading west. The mission set off. Because Han Liu'er was familiar with them, Han Liu'er accompanied them throughout the journey. After walking for more than 40 miles, they had left the populated plains and reached the hilly areas.

, gradually became sparsely populated.

Lu Hatu came to Chen Lu and said, "Master Chen, I feel like I am going back."

Chen Lu had been to Weisi, but he took another road. He felt that the terrain was wrong. When he heard what he said, he was surprised and asked: "Are you sure? Since it is the road we have walked before, it should be

If there is an impression, there should also be traces, right?"

Luhatu said: "It's not the same direction, it's more east. I hope I'm wrong."

Chen Lu did not dare to neglect and reported to Li Da quickly. Li Da said: "It will get dark soon, and the distance should be fifty miles. Logically speaking, when we reach a big town, it shouldn't be so desolate."
