Chapter 2 Prancing Horse City Head
The city guard sergeant heard this and hurriedly stopped shaking the winch, and the huge door bolt slowly fell back into the lock pin.
Just hearing the rustling of armor leaves, a man from the city ran down the stone steps with an anxious look on his face. It was Commander Yan.
Qin Langchuan said: "Ren Zheng, what do you mean?"
General Yan stepped forward and held Qin Langchuan's horse by the head, raised his head and said, "Old Master, are you going to assassinate me?"
Qin Langchuan said: "Exactly."
General Yan said with sincerity: "Although you are highly skilled in martial arts, you can't beat four hands with just two fists, let alone the opponent's army of 100,000 people. This is like a moth throwing into fire. Old Master, please think twice!" Several generals followed behind him.
The soldiers all looked disdainful. I expected that the old man with a white beard must have lost his temper at such an old age. I don't know why the commander-in-chief treated him with such respect.
Qin Langchuan smiled lightly: "Ren Zheng, have you forgotten what I told you twenty years ago?"
Hearing this, Mr. Yan burst into tears and knelt down with a bang: "Old Master! I will remember your words deeply in my heart and will remember them for the rest of my life. It's just that what happened today is very different. I knew I couldn't do it but I did it.
It’s unwise! At this time of national crisis, it’s time to keep yourself useful for great things, how can you give away your life for a moment?”
When everyone saw that he actually knelt down to Qin Langchuan, they were shocked. The several generals who followed him down to the city and the soldiers present were even more shocked.
"Did you also expect that I would die?"
Qin Langchuan took a long breath, looked at the floating clouds in the sky, and said: "Don't take the enemy lightly, nor be afraid of it. My answer is that the army is majestic. I, a Qin man, don't have three sacred sands, and I dare not turn against the West."
Qi! Please don’t say anything anymore. Qin went out of the city as an ordinary citizen today, and he will be responsible for his actions!"
An Ziteng and others were also mentally unstable, fearing that the old man would make mistakes during his trip. Seeing Master Yan's persuasion, they were about to echo a few words, but seeing Qin Langchuan's determination, they could not speak.
Commander Yan knelt on the ground. Seeing that Qin Langchuan was not moved at all, he suddenly stood up and said loudly: "As a common people, you must obey the government. Now the enemy is fierce. I don't know when they will arrive. The city gate
How can you open it lightly? Come here!" The general behind him responded: "Here!" Commander Yan said: "Give me the order. From now on, the whole city will be under martial law and the city gates will be guarded. No one is allowed to open it without my order.
Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" The generals replied loudly: "Yes!"
An Ziteng, Chen Sheng and others did not expect such a change to occur, and looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.
Qin Langchuan laughed: "Haha, the general guarding the gate is very majestic!"
General Yan cupped his hands and said, "People do this as a last resort, so don't blame me!"
Qin Langchuan nodded, indicating that he knew what he meant, looked around, and said with a smile: "The general has strict orders, and the common people must obey them. It's just that they can't go through the city gate, and they can't go anywhere else? Haha!" With a silk rein, he walked around.
General Yan drove his horse away and walked up the horse road to the city. Everyone was shocked and chased after him, shouting: "Old Master!" "Hold on!" "What are you going to do?"
Qin Langchuan's horse galloped away and reached the top of the city in the blink of an eye. The soldiers did not dare to block it and retreated one after another. The horse rushed to the crenel, whizzed and roared, and stopped suddenly. Qin Langchuan's beard and hair were flying, and his expression was resolute.
Ruo Tianshen, wearing white clothes, covered the horse's eyes, clamped its legs, and shouted: "Let's go!" He slapped the horse's hind crotch, and the horse felt pain, raised its hooves, jumped down from the city wall!
Everyone caught up to the top of the city and screamed in unison. They threw themselves at the crenels and looked down. They all said in their hearts: "It's over!" The city wall was six feet or seven feet high. How could anyone fall if they fell?
The war horse's eyes were covered, and it knew that it was certain to die. It stamped its hooves in the air and screamed loudly.
Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground within a few feet, Qin Langchuan shouted angrily, his feet flew away from the stirrups, and landed on the left side of the horse's body. He thrust his hands under the horse's belly and kicked off with both feet——
The horse was like a small boat dropped into the water. It floated in the air, slid forward several feet, and touched the ground with all four hooves.
At the same time, Qin Langchuan's white clothes were flying, and with the elasticity of kicking on the ground, he was already back on the horse's back. He lowered his body and shouted: "Drive!" Taking advantage of the momentum of falling, he accelerated suddenly and rushed towards the moat.
Everyone's hearts dropped and they thought again: the acceleration distance was too short, and with this inertia, even if the rider did not fall to death, he would inevitably fall into the moat and drown.
There was no time to miss, the river bank was coming in an instant, Qinlangchuan pinched his legs at the brow peak, the war horse leaped up, and hissed like a dragon roaring from the sky.
Everyone's eyes were frozen, and they felt that the white-clad horse in front of them seemed to be like clouds in the sky, slowly moving across the river inch by inch, floating towards the end of time.
The war horse was in the air and saw that there was a plain in front of it. Its hooves were slightly bent and landed on the turf. It took advantage of the momentum to rush out for more than thirty steps, and then the inertia was relieved.
——The moat that was more than three feet wide was actually jumped across!
Qin Langchuan laughed loudly and tightened the reins. The horse stopped and turned around. He stood up. Knowing that he would survive the disaster, he kicked his hooves in the air and screamed loudly, like a joyful dragon emerging from the water. He was extremely excited.
Everyone in the city was speechless, unable to believe that this was true.
An Ziteng lost his voice and said: "The old man is so brave, even though Lian Po is still alive, he can't be as good as him!" A group of sergeants and militiamen raised their swords high, and the sound of applause shook the heaven and earth, erupting like a mountain torrent.
The sky was clear blue, thousands of miles of clouds were floating, and the dust and green grass under the bright sun covered the horses' hooves, but they could not hide the pride that spread across the sky and the earth. Qin Langchuan sat on his horse, white clothes following the wind, holding his long sword high, and laughed and said: "I'm going too
!" A group of horses galloped northwest.
"My lord, my lord!" Qi Beishan, An Ziteng and others gathered around.
General Yan was stunned for a long time, then turned to look at the soldiers beside him: "What else are you looking at? Shoot!"
The city gate creaked open, Chang Sihao thrust his two swords at an angle, and rode out first. Qi Beishan, Liangyin, and Qingyin followed behind, and the four of them jumped up and raised their hooves, chasing after them.
Running straight until noon, the speed of Qinlangchuan slowed down, and the four horses caught up. Qi Beishan called out: "Old Master, running so fast, the horses are too tired, and I'm afraid they are exhausted during the war. Let's take a rest."
Qin Langchuan stretched out his hand and pointed: "In front is Wuzhou Mountain. Two masters, how about we rest there?"
Liangyin said: "Very good."
Several people slowed down, and soon a rocky mountain appeared in front of them facing the sun. It was not very high, but it seemed to be one piece. The stone was ancient, with caves of different sizes carved on it. Inside, there were various Buddha statues, tall and tall.
The top of the cliff is huge, and the small one can be held in the palm of the hand. The Buddha body is either sitting or standing, or standing alone in a region, or in groups of three or five. Some faces are kind and peaceful, some are mighty and angry, each with its own look.
, the various flying sky, spectrum, and cloud pattern reliefs on the wall of the cave behind are also extremely detailed and exquisite. Although some parts of the surface have been eroded and destroyed by the strong winds of the frontier fortress, their splendor is still difficult to conceal. Qi Beishan praised: "The Yungang Grottoes are truly amazing and amazing.
The heavens and the earth have created it, and it cannot be done by human beings."
Qin Langchuan shook his head: "This is really the work of skillful craftsmen, how can ghosts and gods do it! In one word from Beishan, all the sweat and hard work of the ancients have been wasted!"
A few people had no time to take a closer look, so they walked forward for more than a mile and reached the end of the grottoes. They found a place with a wide view to stop and rest, and let their horses go to eat green grass.
Seeing the vast, deep and extremely majestic cave opposite, Qingyin sighed: "Amitabha, Master Tan Yao gathered hundreds of thousands of craftsmen to cultivate Buddhism and spent forty years to build such a majestic world.
Senior sister, we should go in and bow down." Liangyin nodded, and the two masters walked slowly into the grotto. They saw four tall rock Buddhas on both sides, standing with one palm in front of their chest.
In the center of the posture, there is a seated statue of Sakyamuni, which is more than four feet tall. It has a high nose, thin lips, big ears and shoulders. The body is slightly leaning forward, and the expression is solemn. However, there is no sunlight in the shadow, making it slightly gloomy.
The two nuns felt admiration in their hearts, clasped their hands together, knelt down and worshiped, and wished: "May the Lord Buddha bless us to stab Anda to death smoothly and save all people from water and fire."
"Hahahahahaha!"
Suddenly I heard the sound of laughter in the cave. The sound was loud and heart-shaking, and it had a majestic tone: "There are people in the world who pray to Buddha for fame, and there are people who pray to Buddha for fortune. I have never seen anyone asking Buddha to bless him who kills someone!"
I think I have been practicing Qing Dynasty for many years, so why can't I end up like this?"
Liangyin and Qingyin were shocked and turned pale. They raised their heads and saw that the Buddha had a kind and stern face and his eyes seemed to be looking at him. He quickly fell down and said, "Disciple, I am guilty!" Qingyin said, "The Buddha does not know something. I answer every question."
Every time we send troops to invade the country, they will massacre, loot, and commit adultery, causing loss of life and mourning all over the land..."
"That's bad!" A deep shout was heard, like thunder. Qingyin was so horrified that she lowered her head and did not dare to say any more.
Just listen to the voice continuing: "Everything has a cause and effect. You only see the effect, but not the cause. The Tatars make a living by herding, and daily necessities are scarce. Take tea for example. They eat beef and mutton every day."
To eat, you must drink strong tea after meals to clear away the fat, otherwise you will get sick. However, the Ming Dynasty emperor implemented a tea ban policy, which made the Tatar people miserable. Other daily use items were not available for tribute and trade, and there was nowhere to buy them.
, smuggled but violated the ban and was beheaded. Ida Zilai had the desire to reconcile with the Ming Dynasty. He took over the military and political power at the age of eighteen, and when he was twenty-seven, he proposed tribute trade to the Ming Dynasty, and exchanged dozens of times.
As a result, the Ming Dynasty not only ignored him, but also killed several of his envoys. Later, he finally tried to open a horse market in the border town to trade goods.
, besieged the capital and sent troops to remonstrate. The Ming emperor regarded himself as the son of heaven and was arrogant, but still stubbornly refused. I replied that the military power at that time was enough to take down the city, but he did not come to seize the land, so he only burned the city.
Demonstration and looting, the crime is excusable. This time he brought 100,000 troops to the east for this matter, not for himself. All living beings are equal, why do you only care about the livelihood of the Han people and ignore the life and death of foreigners?
?”
The two nuns looked at each other with uneasy expressions, and Qingyin said: "Disciple, I really don't know that there is such a joint here. However, I say that if we raise troops this time, it will be another catastrophe. Please ask the Buddha to show mercy and eliminate this disaster."
"
"Hahahahaha," the voice laughed several times, echoing endlessly in the cave, making people feel tight in the chest and painful in the eardrums. Then the voice turned solemn and said in a deep and authentic voice: "Ignorance and stubbornness fight among themselves.
Foreign objects disturb the mind and destroy the pure cultivation! It should be noted that the meaning of cause is caused by conditions, and the meaning of effect is caused by conditions. Everything has cause and effect, and doing something is persistence."
After hearing the words, the two nuns were enlightened and said: "How good!" He closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground with his palms clasped together.
Chapter completed!
