When Wang Junlin heard this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, but he pretended to be astonished on his face. He thought this was a test from King Bodo.
But Dharma King Bodo sneered and said: "Now it seems that you are the one who assassinated that idiot Hurunubi. And six days ago, the 2,500 Sui troops in the Sui Dynasty mission were under our surveillance, so
In the past few days, I have been curious about who poisoned the forage of the Wangting Tribe and the water source of the Ashina Tribe that night. Presumably, these people were the ambushes you brought from Gaotai City!"
Wang Junlin's face changed drastically, and his heart sank to the bottom. Since King Bodo had already anticipated the existence of such a team, how could he not take precautions? Or maybe he was a bait, and King Bodo wanted to destroy him after all his hard work in training.
Five hundred special forces were dispatched.
Thinking of this, Wang Junlin suddenly stuck his head out of the car window. A rough iron whistle appeared in his mouth. He blew it with all his strength. The rhythm was fast and slow. This was an order to retreat immediately. The sound was sharp and passed through.
The whistle was very penetrating, even in the wind and sand, it was still clearly transmitted to the ears of every Sui army. In the past six months, they had listened to this whistle countless times, and it had even become an instinctive conditioned reflex, so they did not notice it at all.
Without hesitation, he hid himself in the wind and sand and ran away with all his strength.
Almost at the same time they fled, thousands of cavalrymen galloped in front from the direction of Gaochang City.
"Although I'm in the Western Regions, I also know that many officials in the Sui Dynasty said that your achievements came from your ruthlessness. Many people said that you don't know how to train troops, and your ability to lead troops in battle is also very average. Now it seems that you use poison.
Perhaps the second thing is that the real skill lies in troop training. I have recently been planning for our divine religion to have a cavalry guard, and this task may be given to you." King Bodo never stopped Wang Junlin from blowing the whistle.
, his greatest interest now seems to be on Wang Junlin.
Wang Junlin is too lazy to speak now. His loyal subordinates have been exposed. King Bodo will definitely take precautions. It is too difficult to save him in the territory of the Turks. Now the only one who can save him may be his own.
It’s easy for Master Chang Kuzi to die, but although Chang Kuzi is powerful, he is surrounded by King Bodo who is no weaker than Chang Kuzi, and there are thousands of Turkic cavalry. Chang Kuzi really has a chance to save him?
However, Wang Junlin now also vaguely understood the thoughts of Bodo Dharma King. Bodo Dharma King did not care at all about the life and death of the Turks or the life and death of his five hundred subordinates. What he cared about was that more people became Nestorian believers.
Therefore, when the wind stopped, Bodo Dharma King personally got off the carriage and chanted sutras to the dead Turkic commander, because this commander was a fanatical believer and the true confidant of Bodo Dharma King. He had just been killed by a long-planned weapon.
San emerged from the sand and stabbed him directly. His whole head was cut off by Wu Sanyi's sword. The Turkic cavalry found his head and put it together with the corpse. A Turkic cavalry was cutting open the belly of the captain's mount.
The war horse itself was also seriously injured. After the Turkic cavalry eviscerated all the internal organs of the war horse, they loaded the body of the commander into it and buried it on the spot.
"Life is as short as a meteor and as fragile as a mayfly. Only the glory of our religion can last forever. Only by believing in the teachings of the Dharma King, can we enter paradise and be reborn after death..."
King Bodo used a unique rhythm to praise the shortness and fragility of life, telling the greatness and eternity of Nestorianism. All the Turkic cavalry looked solemn and yearning.
…
…
No matter where he walked, King Bodo would always have books by his side. Even when he was personally chasing Master Sodaji, there were still two horses without cavalry dragging the books he wanted to read.
In addition to Nestorian teachings, Wang Junlin actually discovered that these books contained some books on mathematics and medicine, especially a book called "Elements of Geometry", which surprised Wang Junlin.
As we all know, "Elements" is a mathematical work written by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid. It is the foundation of European mathematics and the first work to propose perspectives, conic sections, spherical geometry and number theory. Euclid
It used axiomatic methods and became a model for establishing any knowledge system. In the three thousand years since its emergence, it has been regarded as an example of rigorous thinking that must be followed. Moreover, this work is the basis of Euclidean geometry.
It is the most widely circulated book in the West after the Bible.
Therefore, when Wang Junlin remembered that Nestorianism originated in Europe, he was no longer surprised that this book appeared in the hands of King Bodo.
Wang Junlin actually studied very well when he was in later generations. Except for English, his grades in other subjects were those of a top student. Therefore, he read this "Elements of Geometry" with the geometry knowledge of later generations, and his learning progress
Naturally it is very fast.
Therefore, when Wang Junlin deliberately began to discuss the issues of conic sections and spherical geometry in the book with Bodo Rinpoche, Bodo Rinpoche was shocked by Wang Junlin's learning ability or understanding.
For this reason, King Bodo stared at Wang Junlin for a long time with extremely complicated expressions. Especially when he discussed these two issues with Wang Junlin, he had a clearer understanding of conic sections and spherical geometry.
Afterwards, looking at Wang Junlin, he couldn't even say a word.
Bodo Dharma King was selected from millions of people by the previous Venerable Dharma King. He showed extraordinary wisdom and understanding since childhood, and his learning ability is unmatched. However, he has studied mathematical geometry problems all his life.
It only took a small amount of time every day, but it had not been understood. As a result, Wang Junlin figured it out in half a day, and it seemed to be more transparent than what was said in the classic book "Elements of Geometry".
How embarrassing is this for King Bodo?
The result was that when Bodo Dharma King looked at Wang Junlin again, there was a strange doting in his eyes. Of course Wang Junlin knew that this kind of pampering would make Bodo Dharma King even less likely to let him go, but he could
He is more tolerant. For example, after discovering that he has not really become a Nestorian believer for a long time, he can still maintain enough patience with him so as not to kill him. In Wang Junlin's view, as long as he is alive, he has a chance.
get away.
King Bodo now feels that the appearance of Wang Junlin and the fall of Wang Junlin in his hands are all guided by Tianzun Dharma King. In short, he increasingly believes that Wang Junlin is the most suitable candidate for the next Dharma King.
King Bodo has always believed that any knowledge needs to be accumulated and precipitated, and there is no one in this world who is born knowing it.
Even if Wang Junlin is very good at a certain aspect, it is just the product of a flash of inspiration.
He has seen too many prodigies, but rather than magical powers, he prefers to become a knowledgeable person through hard study.
As his understanding of Wang Junlin deepened, he found that Wang Junlin was the best choice in terms of tact, decisiveness, courage, tolerance, memory, understanding and other characteristics that His Holiness the Dharma King most needed.
He also discovered that Wang Junlin seemed to be different from everyone he had ever met. It was just that he had never seen this difference clearly until Wang Junlin showed his amazing talent in profound knowledge such as "Elements of Geometry".
——It seems that there are really people who know this from birth, and this judgment result shocked him greatly.

Compared with the Central Plains, the Western Region is vast and uninhabited. Even if Gaochang City belongs to the Western Turks' sphere of influence, it still takes seven or eight days to travel from the Western Turks' royal court to Gaochang City.
Of course it was not a random idea for King Bodo to go to Gaochang City. It was a plan of Tongyehu Khan to send troops to the Ashina tribe at the same time. News had already come that Tongyehu Khan, Ashina and Hurunubi
In the great war, all three sides were defeated and suffered heavy losses. The total number of men and horses killed by the three parties was no less than 100,000.
Now the three parties have temporarily ceased fighting to rest, and although they already know that it is the Sui people who are provoking it, this cannot dissolve the hatred that has been formed between them.
In addition to the traditional income from their own cattle, sheep and horses, the Western Turks now also have a very important source of income from the tax revenue generated by the three important Western Region cities and more than 20 important towns under their jurisdiction.
Among them, the most important city of Gaochang is under the control of Tongyehu Khan and King Bodo, and the other two cities are in the hands of Ashina and Hurunubi respectively. In the battle at this headquarters, Tongyehu Khan suffered heavy losses.
In rare cases, King Bodo must come over personally to ensure that Gaochang City remains under the control of the royal court.

…
After the dusty weather, sweating will make the body dirty and uncomfortable. Wang Junlin can even rub a dirt ball out and throw it to the Turkic cavalry, saying that it is a poison that can kill hundreds of people.
The Turkic cavalry would carefully put it away as if they had found a treasure.
King Bodo would naturally ignore such deceptive tricks. But in fact, this was just one of Wang Junlin's many temptations.
Wang Junlin finally couldn't stand the filth on his body, but there was no water source nearby, so he planned to use a method mastered by later generations - sand bathing to solve this uncomfortable problem.
Under the curious eyes of King Bodo and the Turkic cavalry, Wang Junlin started frying sand in an iron pot. After a while, there was a pile of hot sand in the tent.
Then, Wang Junlin took off his clothes and quickly rubbed the hot sand back and forth on his body. This was very comfortable. The hot sand washed with very little water ironed the skin. After a while, Wang Junlin's whole body was red.
, it was still steaming, but except for the sand in his hair, all the dirt on his body had been washed away.
When Wang Junlin put on clean clothes again, he felt that his whole body seemed to be a few ounces lighter, and the comfort in his expression made all the Turkic cavalry envious.
