Chapter seven hundred and seventy-ninth, for the sake of sacrifice
When everyone asked Elder Zhizhen why he was doing this, Elder Zhizhen just smiled bitterly, and then said: "I came from poverty, witnessed the economic boom, and witnessed the rampant materialism, and these are all conditions in the world.
But I never thought that the world would become what it is now. It’s just the end of the world. But in comparison, Chengdu can have a stable life. Although it is tiring, it will not be miserable. Looking at Yuzhou, although it is a master
It is in the hands of a young man, but it is very stable. On the other hand, the wine city is already in such a sad situation. The city owner is stupid, leading beasts to eat people, and evil cults are rampant. How can I stand it? "
When Elder Zhizhen said what he was thinking, everyone nodded, and they also felt that it was okay to start resisting at this time. After enduring it for two years, it was really impossible to survive now.
If we resist, how long will we have to wait?
However, at this time, a pilgrim hesitated for a moment, and then said: "But, I heard that after this matter is over, Xue Ba will give us land. If Xue Ba is overthrown, the land will not be lost."
Will it not reach our hands?"
After hearing what this man said, Elder Zhizhen immediately cursed: "What are you talking nonsense? Are you still not a human being? There is no problem in dividing the land, but you place your hopes on a weekday and you are robbing the people of the people."
This guy is simply a fool. Do you think you have the ability to let Xue Ba share the land? Just by relying on the few words he said with white teeth this time? "
Elder Zhizhen is really angry now. He feels sorry for his misfortune and is angry with him. He actually believes the words of a demon. Can we just pretend that what these two demons did before was not seen? This is obviously a matter of seeking skin from a tiger.
In the end, some people actually believed it and were really blinded by the immediate interests. Don't these people know that Xue Ba may regret it at any time after he takes control of the power?
Elder Zhizhen got angry now, and the guy who was still asking the question immediately said: "I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Elder Zhizhen."
After Elder Zhizhen heard the words of apology, he also knew that the other party had now realized that he was wrong. He did not pursue the case now, but said in a deep voice: "At such a critical moment now, we must respond to the people outside, even though we can only send out messages.
Flyers, but it’s better than doing nothing.”
Everyone nodded quickly and then chose to leave, preparing to distribute leaflets throughout the city. This was the only thing they could do now.
After everyone left, Elder Zhizhen sat silently in the Buddhist hall, looking at the empty space on the altar. He seemed to understand something, but also seemed to be confused. He had worshiped the Buddha all his life, and suddenly found that the Buddha was no longer there.
So, what should I worship next? However, although the Buddha has disappeared, the Buddhist principles I learned in the past came to my mind in an instant, and I seemed to have a clear understanding in an instant.
"What is a Buddha? I am the Buddha. The so-called Zen enlightenment and all the principles I understand are all obtained by me. The Buddha has no form at all. He is not in a golden body, a wood carving, or a clay sculpture. The Buddha is in the heart, and he is in the heart.
, understand all the principles, then I am the Buddha!" At this time, Elder Zhizhen suddenly understood a lot.
"I have a bright pearl, which has been locked away in the dust for a long time. Today, when the dust is gone, the light is born, shining through thousands of mountains and rivers."
At this time, after fifty years of learning, Elder Zhizhen finally had an epiphany and understood what Buddha is. This kind of enlightenment is the result of seeing thoroughly, and it cannot be explained by the unclear Tao. This is epiphany. In Taoism, this kind of enlightenment is
This situation is called entering the Tao, which is a state that ascetics can encounter but cannot seek.
After going out, everyone will disperse and post and distribute leaflets in the city. It is late at night. Someone must be patrolling during normal times. If they are discovered, they will be arrested on the spot, or they will die in the end.
In jail, or eventually being released after being drained of money.
But it is still snowing heavily at this time. In such weather, the beggars on the streets are looking for places to hide. As for the soldiers patrolling, there are even fewer soldiers. It is the most appropriate time to post leaflets now, and there is no need to do so.
will be discovered.
Among the dozen or so pilgrims, not all of them believed the words of Elder Zhizhen. One of them, who had once questioned Elder Zhizhen, had his head twisted at this time.
This person's name is Shi Jiwen, and he doesn't have a very good mind. At this time, he still believes what he heard during the day, that is, after this matter is over, the city lord Xue Ba will divide the land for everyone. It's so amazing
The news appeared in his mind and he couldn't get it out of his mind.
"No, the old monk must be lying to me. I can tell from his tone that he is connected with those people outside the city, so after the wine city is occupied, he will be able to rise to prominence, but we people
There will be nothing left, no, for the sake of the possible future industry, we must prevent this from happening." Shi Jiwen thought silently in his heart.
There is an old saying that greed leads to greed. A person who is originally quite upright may actually change his mentality when faced with huge profits.
But now, as the ancients said, people who are blinded by interests will do things that are unbelievable. Shi Jiwen stuffed the leaflet in his hand into his clothes, and then went to find someone.
, when he found the soldiers in the city, he immediately started shouting: "I want to report that someone in the city is conspiring to rebel."
After the soldiers heard the news, they didn't dare to neglect it at all, and then reported the news. Shi Jiwen finally had a smile on his face, because he knew that the property he might get in the future was saved.
Maybe he can even join the city lord's command.
…………
One night, Xu Xing, Lin Yue and Li Yiqiang all discussed countermeasures in a dilapidated room outside the city. Because the verbal offensive did not have a good effect during the day, the three of them were also thinking at this time.
Is it necessary to find ways to expand the advantages of publicity?
However, just when it was daytime, someone suddenly came to report, "Lord Xingxian, there are more than a dozen corpses hanging on the tower. Please go and take a look."
After Xu Xing learned the news, she quickly went out to take a look. The snow had stopped, and the ground was covered with thick snow. The sky was overcast, and the surrounding light was not very good, but Xu Xing's physical fitness was always on display.
Here, standing hundreds of meters away and looking towards the city tower, I could clearly see a group of people hanging on wooden poles on the city tower in an instant.
When Xu Xing saw the body on the wooden pole, he was immediately stunned. He didn't know many people in Liquor City, only two people. One of them was the uncle who took him in, and the other one was
It was the old monk who gave him advice before, but now, Elder Zhizhen is hanging on the wooden pole at this time, and his whole person is already livid, and Elder Zhizhen's bald head is the most conspicuous, from their stiff bodies
From the looks of it, he must have been dead for a long time.
"Elder Zhizhen had stab wounds on his body. He was probably killed by someone. I just don't know how Elder Zhizhen was exposed." Lin Yue said, standing next to Xu Xing.
Li Yiqiang did not have such good eyesight. Even after using a telescope, he could not see very clearly.
Xu Xing was already angry after seeing this scene. Although she once pushed down the Buddha statue in the temple, Elder Zhizhen later gave her advice regardless of past suspicions, and he was able to admit his original mistakes. This performance had already let Xu Xing know
Well, Elder Zhizhen is definitely a good person. It's a pity that good people don't get rewarded. Now he was killed and he had no peace after his death. He was hung on a wooden pole to show the public. At this time, there was someone on the city wall.
He brought out a huge speaker and then started shouting, "Listen to the people outside, these guys on the wooden pole who intend to rebel are your role models. Get away from us as soon as possible, otherwise, we will kill you in the future."
Their heads were also chopped off, their bodies were fed to the dogs, and their heads were used to play football.”
There was no chaos in the city. The civilians had been dazzled by the promises made by Xue Ba and Dong Chao. The cult founded by Dong Chao also played a huge role at this time, with 20,000 believers in various places in the city.
This kind of propaganda says that as long as the refugees from outside rush in, they will kill everyone. In this case, people who don’t know the truth can only fight to survive and want to tell the truth.
The elder has also been killed now, and the residents of the city know nothing about it.
At this time, Xu Xing took a deep breath. She knew that her behavior of knocking down the Buddha statue was wrong. After all, it was a god that the old monk had believed in for decades. However, she was pushed down by herself in anger. Now Xu Xing understands.
It was a mistake, I wanted to apologize but there was no chance.
"Lin Yue, tell us to go down and prepare to attack the city. I'll be at the front." Xu Xing said gloomily, her eyes already full of anger.
After seeing Xu Xing's gloomy expression, Lin Yue advised: "Anger will blind your eyes. Now is not the right time to take action. At least we have to wait until the snow melts, right?"
The south is no better than the north. After it snows in the north, the snow will melt very slowly due to the temperature. However, the temperature in the south is higher than that in the north. Even if it snows heavily, as long as the weather is clear, it will only take three or four days.
It melted away, and at this time, Lin Yue just hoped that Xu Xing could calm down and wait for the right opportunity to attack.
However, Xu Xing turned her head and stared at Lin Yue at this time and said: "It has reached this time. I have the final say in everything. I am the leader in this matter, and you are just the examiner."
Lin Yue didn't know what to say at this time. When he said he was an examiner before, Xu Xing kept asking him to help. But now, he wanted to help, but Xu Xing refused him and asked him instead.
Don't interfere.
"Okay, okay, okay, I'm the examiner. I don't care about you. Li Yiqiang, let the people under him put red mud on their foreheads and prepare to attack the city. Breakfast and other things will be eaten after entering the city." Lin Yue finally
I can only agree with Xu Xing’s decision.
In order to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, Lin Yue decided to imitate the practice of the past, which was to use red mud to paint his forehead red. In the southwest, most of the land is red, so the paint can be seen everywhere.
In ancient times, peasant armies invaded Chang'an, and one of the troops was called Red Eyebrow, which used paints such as mud to paint areas such as eyebrows red. This was also the best way to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
.
In the Central Plains, there is generally yellow soil, while in the south, it is mainly red soil, and in the northeastern region, if we divide it according to color, there is also black soil.
Xu Xing waited silently for everyone to smear her forehead. Looking at the city wall in the distance, she was filled with anger. At this moment, there was only one thing he wanted to do, and that was to kill people and kill all the evildoers.
"Have you applied it yet?" Xu Xing couldn't help but urge. Now Xu Xing could no longer hold back.
Li Yiqiang said quickly: "In half an hour, the order has been passed down, but these people are basically disaster victims. It is very difficult to organize them. Half an hour is enough."
"Then let them apply it slowly. Those who have already applied it, follow me!" Xu Xing said this, and then rushed out. In an instant, Xu Xing had already rushed out a long distance, and Li
He gritted his teeth and shouted behind him: "Brothers, follow Xingxian and rush forward." This chapter has been completed!
