Chapter 833: Lin Chong trusts 'Zuoming' so much that he entrusts Wang Tu's hegemony to him?
Salute to Lord Zhenwu!"
The master of obedience held the Pisces pendant in his hand, looked extremely pious, and recited the name of God in a low voice.
He has been like this all these days, and it is with this spiritual sustenance that he can survive the increasingly harsh treatment of Khitan officials such as Xiao Hutu.
After the routine sacrifice, he had no desire to get a response, but a ray of light suddenly appeared in his mind, and he immediately fell down in ecstasy.
The god has arrived!
Li Yan has never been very fond of faith, and he does not do to others what he does not want others to do to him. If the incarnation of "Zuoming" did not need this support, he would not spread the faith.
Now it is just a temporary measure. Only when the great cause is completed and "Serving Ming" is accomplished and retired, the faith of Zhenwu Sage will be dissipated.
But at this moment, seeing the envoy of the Liao Kingdom open his heart and offer his memories in an extremely obedient manner, allowing him to quickly observe Tian Hu's situation from the perspective of the Liao Kingdom, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh at the convenience of faith.
.
It is no exaggeration to say that imperial power cannot be taken away in such a way.
Thinking again that Wu Yuan was currently focusing his energy on rectifying the numerous Buddhist temples in Yanyun and the Confucius family in Qufu, Shandong. With this person's ability to take action, he would do it slowly, and Li Yan strengthened his belief.
Buddhism must collect taxes!
Of course, the current one is still Tian Hu, the Jin king who is taking the lead in preparing to claim the title of King Jianzhi.
Tian Hu was troubled by the high city and deep pond of Daming Prefecture, which was still so difficult to fight without Cai Jing to guard it. Li Yan was also surprised that Tian Hu could actually raise an army of tens of thousands under the current situation of peace in Hebei.
Although the army's combat power is far inferior to that of the rural army, it is still stronger than the corrupted Northern Army and the Beijing Forbidden Army. It can be said that they are worthy of being the four major bandits in the original work. Being able to stand out is indeed impressive.
From this point of view, Tian Hu's threat far exceeds that of Zhang Xian. The latter uses his faith to fool the people and is very destructive, but he is a rogue from the beginning to the end. If Tian Hu is allowed to occupy the next place, it will really become a success.
With this thought in mind, Li Yan quickly looked through his memory, focusing mainly on two things.
One is that Tian Hu is preparing to transfer Gao Lian to the Liao envoy and bring him back to the Liao Kingdom to Emperor Tianzuo;
Another thing is auspicious: "In the river behind my hometown, there is an old turtle that I rescued when I was young. There are dragon seals and phoenix seals on the turtle shell. Does the book of tadpoles mean that Tian Hu should be the king of Jin?"
The use of rotten auspiciousness from heaven will inevitably seem ridiculous to future generations, but it did work in ancient times when culture was not popular.
Not to mention anything else, even the prefectures and counties of Yanyun have some thoughtful officials who reported the discovery of similar auspicious signs as a test.
Li Yan suppressed them all.
He is not Zhao Kuangyin who bullied orphans and widowed mothers to get the upper hand. He will naturally take action when the time comes. Whoever wants to follow the dragon in this way, then don't blame him for teaching the other person what it means to be smart but be misled by the clever!
However, Tian Hu is completely incomparable to him. Starting an incident far earlier than the original plot requires such steps, and this has become a huge flaw.
With a thought in Li Yan's mind, the instruction went straight to the depths of Shunshou Gao's soul: "Find the location of the auspicious turtle."
Being able to do things for the Holy Lord, Shunshou Gao burst into ecstasy from the bottom of his heart: "Yes!"
The light in his mind dissipated, and he bowed a few times before arranging his clothes, putting his hands behind his back, and walked out of the tent.
Among the envoys, he, a Han citizen, was bullied and humiliated by the Khitan people, but in front of Tian Hujun, he was still the superior Liao envoy.
Seeing that Shen Feng had left the camp and received Tian Hu's three orders and five orders, the soldiers who must be friendly to the Liao people immediately came forward and said respectfully: "I don't know if the envoy has anything important to do, but you can tell us to do it!"...
Obedience Gao Dao: "Take me to see the three kings!"
This order had no beginning and no end. The soldiers didn't understand what was going on, but they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They quickly called their companions to come over and lead the way together.
Under the careful escort of four soldiers, Shunshou reached the center of the camp and saw a man sitting uneasily in a large tent, walking around, muttering to himself: "Daming Mansion"
Did you win the fight? Will something happen?"
Stopping the soldiers' announcement, he obeyed Gao and walked into the tent. The man was stunned at first and then was shocked: "Ah! Aren't you an official from Daliao? Why are you here?"
Shunshou Gao cupped his hands and said: "I, Shunshou Gao, named Liangchen, have met three great kings!"
The man was embarrassed and said: "I can't afford it! I can't afford it! I'm not one of the three kings. I'm just a farmer..."
Shunshou Gao said a few more words, and after observing his words, he was basically certain that although Tian Hu was born as an Orion, he had a somewhat heroic spirit, while Tian Hu's biological brother Tian Biao was a farmer through and through.
In the original plot, this man was still guarding a city, and his army was defeated by Lu Junyi. He fled back to Tian Hu and cried loudly. He only had the title of three kings, which can be said to be of no use.
In fact, this is also a common problem of sudden wealth. When one person attains the Tao and a chicken or dog ascends to heaven, those who ascend to heaven are still chickens and dogs, and they do not transform into dragons and phoenixes. If virtue is not matched, there will be disaster. The children of the Wu family in the Tang Dynasty are a standard example.
, Empress Wu couldn't help her up.
Seeing this person's level, Shen Shenggao immediately changed his title, and at the same time stopped beating around the bush so that the other person would not understand him at all: "I am here to see with my own eyes the god-given spirit tortoise that was raised as an offering, Your Majesty.
After learning the news of Gao Lian's arrest, I was very happy, but also very interested in this thing. After seeing it, I can report back to Your Majesty and ask the three kings to lead the way!"
Tian Biao showed reluctance and waved his hands: "I can't make the decision on this matter. Please ask the officials to ask my eldest brother!"
Shunshou Gao emphasized again, but when he saw that he still refused, his pleasant expression suddenly darkened: "If the King of Jin is here, of course I will ask the King of Jin for advice. Now he is attacking Daming Mansion, and His Majesty the Liao Emperor sent him
The envoy is waiting in the tent, how about you go back with me to explain?"
Tian Biao's legs softened when he scolded him sternly and with such mighty official authority. It was like he knelt down when he saw the local magistrate before: "Please forgive me, officer!"
Submissive Gao was afraid that the soldiers outside would see him, so he quickly lifted him up with quick eyes and hands, and regained his pleasant expression: "What are the three kings doing? We are friends who help each other. I, Daliao, want to support King Jin with many soldiers to help him
I have laid down a huge territory...Why do you kneel to me? From now on, more people will kneel to you!"
Tian Biao stood up tremblingly. He was confused at first, but after listening to it again, he began to feel that he had been respected as never before. He also realized that his brother was the queen, and he was indeed different from before. He happily said: "I will really do it in the future."
Will many people kneel down to me?"
He smiled submissively: "Of course it's true. Other officers may not know the feeling of being fawned over, but I know it very well. I'm about to tell the three kings, but I also ask the three kings not to hide this from me.
An ally of Daliao!"
As the questions and answers were narrated, in less than half an hour, all the secrets in Tian Biao's heart were shaken out like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.
Finally, with Shunshou Gao, he walked towards the tent in the southeast corner: "The spirit turtle is being raised by Master Qiao Xian. Brother has taken care of it and no one can approach it, but Daliao is our helper, so of course it's different...
…"
"Not bad!"
Obediently nodded, the tight guard was called away by Tian Biao, and he walked in unimpeded...
I saw a large tank placed in the center of the big tent. The water inside was rippling slightly, and there was an old turtle swimming vaguely.
"I didn't expect that the matter entrusted by the Holy Lord could be completed so easily!"
Shunsheng Gao was so ecstatic that he couldn't help but take a step forward, wanting to take a closer look.
However, at this moment, a thin stream of smoke filled the air from the vat, and it transformed into the shape of a Taoist priest, guarding in front of the vat, staring over with bright eyes: "I have seen something different from you a long time ago, and you are indeed planning something evil!"
Shunsheng Gao was shocked, but couldn't make any reaction at all. He only saw this man holding an ancient iron sword, with the tip of the sword pointed directly at the center of his eyebrows: "Edict!"
With a simple curse, boundless fear suddenly surged over like a flood. Submissive Gao screamed, as if he was about to fall to the ground and die.
But then, a light flashed in his mind, the fear quickly dissipated, and a figure in a wide robe and long sleeves appeared in front of his eyes.
Li Yan looked at the Taoist in front of the vat with great interest: "Is Qiao Daoqing?"
Tian Hu is the least powerful among the four great bandits in the original work, but the strength of his generals is not weak. There are ten strong generals, and the weakest ones have the strength of the Eighth Prince. The leader Qiao Daoqing is one of the strongest in the world.
Taoist priest.
This person has two settings, both of which are related to Zhenren Luo. One is Zhenren Luo's junior brother. The junior brothers have a good relationship. Due to breaking the precepts, he lives in the world and becomes Tian Hu's subordinate.
In order to defeat Qiao Daoqing, Zhenren Luo taught Gongsun Sheng "One Sect of Heaven's Heart Zhengfa", but it only broke the opponent's spell and made Qiao Daoqing withdraw his troops. Later, the real winner was Zhang Qing who sneaked into Tian Hu's army, married the princess Qiong Ying, and persuaded
The latter surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and when they led the troops to rebel, they persuaded Qiao Daoqing to join them. Only then did Qiao Daoqing, Zhang Qing, Qiongying and others return to surrender to the Liangshan Army.
It is said that Tian Hu's subordinates also surrendered the most. Six of the ten fierce generals returned to Liangshan, which is comparable to a talent reserve.
Another version of Qiao Daoqing wanted to become a disciple of Zhenren Luo, but he was rejected by Zhenren Luo because he was studying a "heterodox path" and was not the right path. He could only become Zhenren Luo after "encountering virtue and demon surrender".
's apprentice.
In this version, Qiao Daoqing could not defeat Gongsun Sheng, and was defeated by the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Zhengfa". Later, he was persuaded by Sun An to abandon the secret and turn to the light, and finally worshiped Gongsun Sheng as his teacher.
In fact, it is Fan Rui's second role. The surrender process and character design are somewhat similar, but there are more scenes.
Li Yan had also considered before whether Qiao Daoqing, now under Tian Hu's command, was Zhenren Luo's junior disciple, or the second Fan Rui who eventually became his disciple.
Judging from the brief confrontation just now, it should be the former type.
Sure enough, Qiao Daoqing's original plan to use an illusion to cause Shunshou Gao's liver and gallbladder to split and die was resolved in an understatement, and his attention immediately shifted to: "The breath of the Tianshu spell... What is your relationship with my senior brother?"
Li Yan was able to have this incarnation of "Zhu Ming" because he and Gongsun Zhao studied the Tianshu mantra, and the Tianshu mantra was taught by Gongsun Zhao when he went to Erxian Mountain, so he replied: "Thanks to Master Luo
Give me some advice, but I'm just a bit shy."
Qiao Daoqing said calmly: "In that case, I won't embarrass you, just go ahead!"
Li Yan also said calmly: "That's a pity, but I have to embarrass you. Ever since the auspiciousness came from the sky, Tian Hu's own Qi has been related to this so-called spirit turtle. Your Excellency is just a ghost here,
How to stop me?"
Qiao Daoqing raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand and gently touched the water surface: "Really?" Li Yan's eyes immediately fell into the water tank.
Judging from his five senses, he discovered that the turtle in the tank had miraculously disappeared.
Only the sixth sense judgment was different. The turtle did not really disappear, but its position was obscured, making it difficult to locate it.
Such a method made Li Yan not surprised but happy: "Good method, I learned a lesson!"
Listening to this man's suddenly high fighting spirit, Qiao Daoqing also became somewhat interested. It was obvious that he broke the rules and supported the rebels, so he would not have a particularly indifferent character: "Your Excellency is also very good. He wants to fight with the poor Taoist."
A battle of wits?"
Li Yan's brows moved slightly: "That's what I mean, but there are superior and inferior skills in fighting. Simple spell fighting is just the lower level. I am the 'commander' and choose Qianlong. You follow Tian Hu, and you must also have the intention of supporting the dragon.
