Chapter 323 The Grand Master of Buddhism (first update)
…
…
It was snowing heavily, and the border areas outside the Great Wall were crying most loudly. A cold wind blew by, taking away all the remaining warmth.
In the continuous military camp, a group of soldiers are still in their armor. Although there are few wars in the middle of winter, they still have to be on guard.
"What a heavy snow..."
Yu Liang stood at the height of the military camp, looking at the surrounding fields, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Thanks to Wei Zhengxian's decisiveness and rapid purge, Dali Junguan saw that there was no advantage to be taken, so they ceased their activities. If it hadn't been for the heavy snow, they would have returned to the pass.
"Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest. With this heavy snowfall, it will be a good harvest in the future."
Wu Changbai took a step behind and echoed the words.
He has been in the military camp for several months. Although he has not been involved in any battles, he has become familiar with Yu Liang and others.
It's just a pity that he is still not among the candidates recommended by the military for the military examination.
"Colonel Wu seems to be very laid-back?"
Yu Liang glanced at him, his tone neither salty nor cold.
From the beginning, he was extremely optimistic about Wu Changbai. With his family background, talent, and character, he would be very advantageous in the military.
It's a pity that at that banquet, he acted too eagerly and was too utilitarian, and he didn't like people who were too utilitarian.
Although he himself lives in the army, a person like Yang Yu who is indifferent to fame is more in line with his temperament, rather than someone like Captain Wu who is good at sneaking into the camp.
"Where, where."
Wu Changbai's smile was slightly stiff, but he didn't care about Yu Liang's indifference. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the whistling of the wind.
An eagle flew over from the distant mountains and landed on Yu Liang's arm not long after.
"This is?"
Wu Changbai was just wondering when he saw the eagles coming one after another. He glanced at them and saw that there were not as many as seven or eight of them, so he suddenly became confused.
In order to prevent the eagles from being intercepted, he had seen several eagles being used for one message, but this was a bit too much.
Where did something big happen again?
Yu Liang ignored him and took off the letters one by one from Ling Ying's body.
"What is supposed to come will come sooner or later."
Yu Liang sighed, turned around and left, heading towards the Chinese army's tent.
In the big tent, Wei Zheng was not wearing any armor. He was only wearing a thin long robe and holding a book in his hand. He was reading carefully. When he heard footsteps and calls, he did not raise his head and only responded lightly.
"General..."
Yu Liang entered the tent and bowed to salute.
"Mr. Yu is here."
Wei Zhengxian put down his book, smiled slightly, and politely asked him to take a seat.
"I'm guilty."
Yu Liang not only did not sit down, but also bowed for a long time to apologize for himself.
Wei Zhengxian shook his head slightly and said unconcernedly: "You are devoted to your friends, what crime do you have, sir?"
"You can't hide it from the general."
Yu Liang smiled bitterly, knowing that Wei Zhengxian had known about his seizure of the letter for a long time. I am afraid that he himself did not want to accept the letter...
"Actually, Mr. Wei took all the letters with him and it relieved Mr. Wei's worries..."
Wei Zhengxian looked calm:
"Forget it, we still have to face this problem."
Yu Liang silently stepped forward and handed over two non-overlapping letters. The seven or eight eagles plus the previous ones actually delivered only two letters.
"It's troublesome..."
Wei Zhengxian sighed:
"My lord, I gave you a lot of support back then, and I was almost half a mentor to Wei. Logically speaking, I should give him face, but..."
Pressing the table lightly, Wei Zhengxian seemed to be having trouble making a decision. He looked at Yu Liang, seemingly asking.
Yu Liang understood what he meant, and even more clearly understood that Wei Zhengxian had already made his decision, but he still couldn't help but sigh:
"Nie Wendong has no conscience, Ling Chi is not unjust, and Yang Yu did a lot for us to eliminate Xiao Zhan..."
"It's a pity that someone wants him to die."
Wei Zhengxian's tone was full of regret, and he seemed to have made a decision.
"General, you can actually ignore it."
Yu Liang's face tightened slightly.
"Mr. Yu is a smart man. You should know that at this moment, the documents to replace me may be held in someone's hand. I don't care, but the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of brothers in the army..."
Wei Zhengxian was slightly silent, but he still threw out a wooden box.
"This is... the Great Pill of Renyuan?"
Yu Liang's eyes widened, he actually asked for it?
"This general always has clear rewards and punishments in his actions. You will send this 'Ren Yuan Great Pill' to Pingdu Mountain on my behalf. If he is injured or not, just give it to him..."
As the words rumbled, Wei Zhengxian stood up, his sleeves full of wind, and an eagle cry came down from the sky:
"You ride on the goshawk, and I'll ride on the dragon and horse! Whether it's life or death, let's see what happens to him!"
Yu Liang was moved and turned to leave.
…
…
Dong dong dong~
Yang Yu gently pressed his heart. In fact, the moment he approached the mountain wall, he felt the extraordinary beating of the Cauldron of Gluttony.
It was like a gourmet who was about to starve to death. Seeing a table full of delicacies, the beating was so violent that Yang Yu almost thought it was going to jump out of his chest.
This is the first time for me to beat so violently.
On the cliff, there is a cave. Between the clouds and mist, half of the entire mountain peak has been cut off, and there are faint wisps of mist.
"Is this really food?"
Yang Yu touched his chin, feeling quite surprised.
But he did not rush forward, but stopped and waited.
At the foot of the cliff, Taoist Yun was in shock. He first climbed down the cliff, then hesitated for a long time. He carefully made another divination and found that there was no danger, so he gritted his teeth and climbed up.
"you……"
Before Taoist Yun could stand still, he saw the red flying fish robe floating in the wind, and his heart skipped a beat.
It's not that he was surprised that a Jin Yiwei would come here, but that this man's aura was unbelievably strong.
Shuiyun Temple has been in decline for many years, and his martial arts can only be said to be average. The formation of Zhen Gang was a bit of a coincidence, but he quietly practiced the hexagram technique and his perception was extremely strong.
The moment he saw this person, his heart was filled with a chill, and he felt that he was standing with his hands behind his back, like a mountain peak lying in front of him, which made him unable to breathe smoothly.
"Could this be Jinyiwei Qianhu?!"
Taoist Yun's pupils shrank, but before he could speak, the mysterious man in a black robe with a hood covering his facial features appeared behind him like a ghost, and a cold palm fell on his shoulder.
"Let's talk?"
Yang Yu turned around, half-smiling but not smiling.
Naturally, his eyesight was very good. Even though it was bright and blocked by mountains and forests, he still saw the old Taoist priest shaking the turtle shell.
It seems to be a hexagram technique that is widely spread among the magicians in the world. It is called Immortal Guidance.
"..."
Glancing at the disciple who was forced to the edge of the cliff by the calf-sized black dog, Taoist Yun's eyelids trembled and he forced a smile and said:
"Whatever you want to know, I can tell you everything you know."
"How about this fairyland?"
Yang Prison smiled.
He could guess from the old man's expression that he must have some understanding of this fairyland, or that the teacher in the sect had experienced this fairyland before.
Otherwise, with his martial arts skills, he might not be qualified enough to access information about the fairyland.
"this……"
Taoist Yun had sweat on his forehead, which he naturally didn't want to say.
"Yang just wants to know the origin of this fairyland, and is not interested in its secrets. You can pick some irrelevant stories and listen."
As soon as Yang Yu waved his hand, the living dead retreated, and the big black dog bared its teeth and retreated slowly.
"This fairyland of immortals and demons..."
Taoist Yun breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't believe the person in front of him. His eyes signaled his apprentice to retreat off the cliff, and then he said:
"The illusory realm of immortals and demons here is the legacy of a supernatural being who lived more than two thousand years ago. It is not the legacy of the legendary gods and demons..."
Seeing Yang Yu's expressionless face, Taoist Yun paused and continued:
"That magical person is suspected to be left behind by the founder of the Zen sect. It is suspected that the spirit of the founder of the zen sect who taught the Dharma to subdue demons was remembered by heaven and earth..."
"The founder of Zen Buddhism, Master Bodhidharma?"
Yang Yu was slightly startled.
There are too many paradoxes in past and present lives, such as Emperor Qin, Ba Zun, Emperor Tang, Ming Dynasty, etc., including the first ancestor of Zen Buddhism.
Buddhism is widely spread, and there are actually no fewer legends about this Zen master than there are immortals and demons.
It is said that this great master came across the ocean to spread the Dharma to the world, and there are also various deeds about how he subdued demons and eliminated demons. Of course, there is no way of knowing whether he subdued demons or eliminated demons.
"My lord, I understand that this little old man only knows so much about this fairyland."
Taoist Yun bowed his hands.
This was the limit of what he could say. If there was anything else, he would kill him without even saying it.
He was already prepared to face the violent storm, but he didn't expect that the person on the other side didn't seem to have the slightest intention of embarrassment. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he actually led the living dead into the clouds and mist.
"Leaving now?"
Taoist Yun was slightly startled. He looked around and seemed to have really left. Then he called the disciples from Yadi to come up.
Mu Shaoyou was exhausted from climbing up and down. When he came up this time, he was out of breath.
"Then Jin Yiwei is gone?"
"gone."
Taoist Yun was convinced, but he did not dare to say anything more, and his voice was not loud:
"The fantasy world of immortals and demons here is related to the first ancestor of Zen Buddhism who 'enlightened the Tao and subdued the dragon'. You follow my master's instructions and hold the Buddha beads I gave you before in your mouth, and you must also hold on to the relics you asked for..."
Mu Shaoyou couldn't tell the story, so he could only nod his head and follow the instructions one by one.
"So what if you take the first step? This fairyland is the private property of Shuiyun Temple!"
Taoist Yun sneered in his heart.
The two waited for a long time, and suddenly heard the whistling of air again. Their hearts tightened, and they hurriedly held the Buddha beads in their mouths, clutched the relics, and rushed into the clouds and mist.
Whoosh!
In the shrouded clouds and mist, Yang Yu saw the movements of the master and the apprentice. Although he could not hear the sound transmission between the two, he could see something from their actions.
"Buddha beads? Relics? It seems that the little old man is not lying. This fairyland is indeed related to the founder of Zen Buddhism, Grandmaster Bodhidharma?"
Yang Prison thought silently in his heart.
It wasn't until he heard the approaching wind in the distance that he made up his mind to hide the living dead outside, and stepped into the wisps of mist with the big black dog that never left.
The moment he stepped into it, Yang Yu activated the purple gold gourd, and the light flickered from it, with a ray of light coming out.
But it is exactly the destiny I got from the Eyeless Monk,
