Returning to the post house, closing the door, Pu Xuan sat down and said, "Master nephew, I think that Long Cheng'en is not easy to deal with. You should be careful."
Hong Zhi also said: "Before leaving, my junior brother specifically told us to be especially careful about Long Chengen."
"You two uncles, don't worry. Master has a clever plan and you will win this battle."
Mojie suffered a small loss yesterday, but he didn't care. He was confident of winning the competition.
....
Fengming Palace.
Long Chen followed Di Waner to the door, and Di Waner said, "Go in."
"You won't go in?"
"How can I get in like this?"
Di Waner cursed in a low voice.
The clothes outside looked fine, but the clothes inside had just been torn to pieces by Long Chen.
After the dynasty was over, Long Chen planned to return to Commander Long's Mansion, but Di Waner sent a message to Long Chen to go to Fengming Palace to meet the saint.
Along the way, Long Chen was particularly dishonest, and his inner clothes were torn.
Long Chen entered the royal study alone with a smile. The empress asked, "Are you sure about the competition in two days?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "The Holy Lord cannot trust me."
This matter has been mentioned before, and the empress asked again.
"Will your plan come true?"
"Wei Chen can only say that everything depends on manpower, but dare not make any guarantees."
The empress nodded slightly: "Okay, go ahead according to your plan."
After finishing speaking, Long Chen was still standing.
"Is there anything else?"
the empress asked strangely.
Long Chen was stunned for a moment, then bowed: "Wei Chen, please retire."
Long Chen quickly walked out of the imperial study room, feeling a little embarrassed.
The empress looked at Long Chen's back and cursed in a low voice: "You brat, you won't leave until you can take advantage! You can't be spoiled!"
When they got outside, Di Waner went back to her room to change clothes. Long Chen shook his head and sighed as he walked: "I thought there were other things, but that's it..."
Returning to Longshuai's Mansion, Long Chen entered the guest room.
Xiaomanzi leaned on the bedside, and Liu Qingqing talked with him.
Long Chen gave Xiao Manzi a lot of good medicine, and his body recovered quickly.
"Sir General."
Seeing Long Chen come in, Liu Qingqing hurriedly saluted, and Xiaomanzi also wanted to salute.
"You're welcome. We are a family when we live here. You see, they don't need to salute."
Long Chen sat on the chair beside the bed.
"The general is a good officer."
Liu Qingqing said gratefully.
Long Chen smiled and asked Xiao Manzi: "I see you have practiced before, why didn't you fight back then?"
As a hunter, you must have skills.
Xiaomanzi said helplessly: "Qingqing is in their hands, I don't dare."
Liu Qingqing looked sad and said, "I asked you to leave me alone."
Little Manzi wanted to say something but didn't say it. Long Chen felt like he had become a light bulb, and he laughed and said: "Okay, it's all over. I beat that evil young man to death, and all his men were killed. Your revenge has been taken."
.”
"When your injuries are healed, I will take you back to Ningyuan."
Liu Qingqing said hurriedly: "General, there is no need to be so polite. We will go back by ourselves."
Long Chen smiled and said: "I'm just on the way. I will lead the troops to Yanmen Pass when the time comes. The barbarians have been causing trouble recently, so you guys will go with me."
At this point, Liu Qingqing and Xiao Manzi suddenly fell silent.
"have a good rest."
Long Chen stood up and left the guest room.
Back in the study room in the backyard, Long Chen asked Xiang Ning to get pen and ink, and then started writing at his desk.
I started writing at noon and continued until late at night.
Bai Tingting opened the door and came in, sat across from her, snatched away the writing brush, and said angrily: "If you don't eat for a day, you can write after eating."
Long Chen rubbed his eyes and said with a smile: "Why are you back?"
Xiang Ning came in with food, and Bai Tingting scolded: "If he doesn't eat for a day, you don't care."
Xiang Ning was helpless: "I asked several times, but there is nothing I can do if the adults don't eat."
Bai Tingting put down the food and put away the things on the table.
"Why...are you writing Buddhist scriptures?"
Bai Tingting was very surprised. What Long Chen wrote were all Buddhist scriptures?
Long Chen picked up his chopsticks to eat and didn't answer.
Xiang Ning looked at it and asked, "Sir, don't you hate Buddhism? How can you still understand this?"
After finishing the meal, Long Chen said: "Okay, I won't accompany you tonight, wait until I finish writing."
Bai Tingting didn't care and stayed with her in the study.
By the time I finished writing the Buddhist scriptures, it was already midnight.
Bai Tingting brought Long Chen foot-washing water, and after washing, she slept with him.
After sleeping until noon, when Long Chen woke up, Bai Tingting had already returned to South Camp to train troops.
"Sister Tingting finally came back once, and you just fell asleep and did nothing."
"I was too tired last night, and how do you know I didn't do anything?"
Xiang Ning is speechless...
"Tell me the truth, did you hide outside the window and listen to the noise last night?"
Long Chen picked up Xiang Ning and pressed her into the bed for interrogation.
"What? No, Sister Tingting said it herself."
Xiang Ning was so scratched that she shrank into a ball.
"I'll make it up to her next time. I was too tired last night."
Long Chen let go of Xiang Ning, changed his clothes and prepared to go out.
"Where are you going? Going to visit a brothel again?"
Xiang Ning packed up the bedding and checked carefully. They were all dry. As expected, she didn't do anything last night.
"Don't talk nonsense. I have something to do. If the princess checks the post, just tell me that I...went to check on Wanjin Tower."
Xiang Ning complained: "Sir, how many times have you used Wanjinlou's excuse? Please change it."
Long Chen picked up a bag, packed the scriptures he had written, and then went out.
....
Posthouse.
Mojie is meditating in his room. Yesterday, he was injured by Long Chen while using Buddhist tremolo in the Daming Palace. He needs to heal himself.
Dong dong dong...
"Come in."
A boy from the posthouse came in and said, "Master, you have a letter."
Mojie was a little strange. He had no acquaintances in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, so how could he have letters?
The boy put the letter on the table and left the room.
After getting up, he picked up the letter and opened it. Mojie frowned, with an angry look on his face: "You think I'm afraid of you when we get to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?"
Mojie put on his coat and went out. The monk guarding the door asked, "Senior brother, are you going out?"
Mojie said: "I will take a walk around the capital city to see the local scenery."
"The two masters went out to preach Buddhism again?"
The monk replied: "Yes, the two masters and their brothers lead them to preach Buddhism in the capital every day."
Since entering the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi have been spreading Buddhism, especially when they arrived in the capital.
The Jingzhao Mansion reported this matter to the empress and wanted to ban these people, but the empress said to let them go.
Mojie nodded, left the post house and walked towards the east.
....
East of the capital city.
An ancient temple is located halfway up the mountain. The mountain gate has fallen into decay, wild trees and weeds are overgrown, and many temples have been crushed by heavy snow. Only the main hall is intact. There is a ferocious-looking Buddha statue inside, which is the refuge Buddha revered by Xixia Buddhism.
Holding the sky with one hand and pointing to the earth with one hand, those who follow me will go to bliss, and those who go against me will go to hell.
More than ten years ago, the penetration of Buddhism in Xixia was very strong, and many Buddhist temples were built in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
This Buddhist temple was called the Refuge Temple, and it was the largest one at that time. It had more than a thousand monks and was very prosperous for a while.
Later, the empress took the lead in destroying Buddhism, respecting Taoism, and abandoned the refuge temple.
Even so, there are still many people who secretly burn incense and worship.
Long Chen walked into the main hall and looked at the ruined statue of the Buddha and God of Refuge. There were many traces of incense candles in front of it.
Belief cannot be forbidden, it can only be guided. There were many Buddhist believers in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Long Chen sat down on the left side, took out the scriptures from the cloth bag and placed them on top.
Outside the door, there was a sound of footsteps...
