Chapter 19 The demon causes chaos and brings disaster to Jingkou

Liu Yu's voice was slow and heavy, and the past events of a few years ago were still vivid in his mind: "But I didn't expect that Lu's purpose of recruiting followers was actually to commit rebellion. Just one night six years ago, he suddenly summoned several people.

Believers from hundreds of families, including men, women, old and young, lied to them that there was evil in the palace and asked them to follow him on a night walk to slay the evil."

"Because everyone believed in him deeply, they followed him to Jiankang. I don't know what magic he used, but the guards guarding the soldiers along the way let thousands of believers pass, and they rushed directly into the palace at night.

City, open the arsenal, want to rebel and assassinate His Majesty."

"Fortunately, the generals who were on duty at the palace at that time took effective measures and put down the rebellion in one fell swoop. Lu Wei was defeated and committed suicide. His death was not a pity. However, there were more than 200 people in Jingkou who were implicated in this at that time!"

"Since the establishment of Jingkou Town, there has never been such a tragedy. Almost every family has relatives and friends who died in this rebellion provoked by Demon Lu. So now, when we talk about Tianshi Dao here, we are filled with gnashing of teeth and hatred!

"

Tan Pingzhi frowned and said: "The forest is big, and there will be all kinds of birds. It cannot be ruled out that some individual careerists sneak into the religious sect and take advantage of the trust of brothers in the sect for their own benefit. Such people are not only

The imperial court will be eliminated, and our divine religion will also clean up its doors."

Liu Yu sighed: "Brother Tan, after Lu Yaoren's incitement, very few people here in Jingkou no longer believe in the Tao of the Heavenly Master."

"Look at my brother, his name is Xu Xianzhi, and his name has the same zigzag as yours. His family was originally a die-hard believer in Tianshi Tao, but during the last chaos, several of his uncles were deceived by Demon Lu.

, lost his life in vain."

"And his family was implicated because of this, and his official title was not guaranteed. You must know that his grandfather was a high-ranking official who served as the governor of Jiangzhou. He, a scholar's son, can only live such a life now. This is not a matter of just one or two sentences.

Hatred that can be resolved."

Tan Pingzhi sighed: "I didn't expect that here in Jingkou, we actually have such a past with the Taoist religion. I'm afraid this misunderstanding is very deep. No wonder the leader does not invite the local people to participate in social dramas, but only preaches among the Taoist people in the north.

.In this case, it’s hard for me to force Brother Liu to participate, so I say goodbye.”

Liu Yu's eyes moved, and he thought to himself: Sun Tai, the current leader of Tianshi Dao, was the military advisor of King Zhao Sima Lun, the culprit of the Eight Kings Rebellion before the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Sun Xiu, known as the scholar in white.

Descendants.

He was born in Yuanyuan and was originally a scholar, but because his ancestor was a dog-headed military advisor who brought disaster to the country and the people and provoked chaos in the world, he was not allowed to enter the promotion system.

So Sun Tai was so angry that he simply worshiped Du Zigong, a living god who was famous all over Jiangnan at that time, as his disciple. This Du Zigong had various magical magic and illusions. Even among the upper-class nobles, there were many believers and admirers. After Sun Taiyi became a disciple

, relying on his ancestral political talent, he quickly became the master of the entire Tianshi Tao, that is, the great leader.

This time this person came to Jingkou, but he only organized this kind of religious activities among the northern refugees. Even these northern refugees were mobilized by him by sending priests to the north. What does this leader want to do in Jingkou by doing this kind of thing?

Could it be that Sun Tai also wanted to take advantage of the time when the powerful Hu from the north moved south, the Eastern Jin army marched north to fight against the enemy, and the city of Jiankang was empty, to cause another Luxu Rebellion?

Thinking of this, Liu Yu took a breath of air and suddenly made up his mind, no matter what, he had to explore this social drama.

He turned to put on a smile and said: "Brother Tan, I think maybe we people in Jingkou have some misunderstandings about your sect. What you said makes sense. Lu Xue's rebellion was not ordered by Master Sun. If this matter

If it has something to do with him, Tianshi Tao must have been banned by the imperial court."

A smile appeared on Tan Pingzhi's face: "Brother Liu is right to think so. The great leader cares about the suffering people in the world, how can he take the initiative to cause chaos?"

Xu Xianzhi frowned and said in a deep voice: "Brother Liu, how can you say that? What kind of religion is Tianshi Tao? Don't we Jingkou people still know it?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "Xianzhi, I know your family suffered a lot from the former Lu Chou, but the people with the surname Lu are the people with the surname Lu, and the Tianshi Tao is the Tianshi Tao. They can call on the northern refugees to go south to defend the Jin Dynasty.

, it’s just good.”

"Moreover, Brother Tan and the others offended Diao Hong yesterday, and I think the Diao family will still bring trouble to them. After all, I, Liu Yu, am just an upright person, and I speak lightly. If they have been protected by Tianshi Dao, I think even that Diao family

The governor, I don’t dare to bully them casually."

Having said this, Liu Yu patted Xu Xianzhi on the shoulder: "Xianzhi, compare your feelings with yourselves. Brother Tan has not been sorry to us, right?"

Xu Xianzhi sighed, shook his head, and walked away. Liu Yu looked at Tan Pingzhi, cleared his throat, and said, "Then, brother Tan, let's go now!"

Jingkou, southeast, Pinglu Village.

This is the area directly under the jurisdiction of the Qiao Zhi South Xuzhou, specially used to resettle refugees from the north. Over the past few decades, a large village of four to five hundred households has been formed.

Surrounded by rivers, there are thousands of hectares of fertile fields outside the village, with cattle and farmers going back and forth. The sound of gongs, drums and singing can be heard clearly from miles away. Many of them have obvious northern accents, which can be heard at once.

The excitement and joy in it.

Liu Yu followed Tan Pingzhi into this village. At a glance, he saw a large open space beside the village, filled with people. There were more than two thousand men, women, and children singing and dancing here. There was a place in the middle surrounded by many people.

In the place where there were fifty or sixty people with flower drums tied around their waists, they danced to the beat of the drums with vigorous and powerful movements, which aroused waves of cheers from the onlookers.

Liu Yu noticed that more than half of the people in the square were wearing Tan Pingzhi's sky-blue clothes and blue turbans. They sang and danced with the drummers, while Wei Yongzhi and several of his

A brother, who was also surrounded by a crowd of spectators, saw his three hare lips cracking and cracking as he smiled heartily, just like a happy big rabbit.

Liu Yu frowned. Although everyone was happy, he always felt something was wrong. There were many people wearing Taoist robes and black Taoist boy hats patrolling around.

Different from ordinary Taoists, they all wear sharp swords hanging on their belts, and these Taoists are all young adults in their twenties and thirties, with stern faces, not at all as peaceful as those monks in ordinary Taoist temples.

Peaceful.

Liu Yu's alertness suddenly rose, and he whispered to Tan Pingzhi on the side: "Brother Tan, where did these Taoists come from? Did Leader Sun bring them? Why are they all wearing swords?"
