Chapter 1535: Imperial Master Pudu Cihang
The sky was slightly bright, and Zuo Xiong returned to the escort team. All the guards were already up. There was a stream next to them. Some were washing their faces, some were filling water bags, and some were taking out dry food and preparing breakfast.
Zuo Xiong came to the prison car with a bag of freshly poured stream water and a steamed bun, and said to Xue Ji who was sitting in the car: "Master Xue, let's have something to eat."
Xue Ji looked at Zuo Xiong, nodded, took it, drank two mouthfuls of water, and slowly ate the steamed buns.
But Zuo Xiong did not leave, and said softly: "Master Xue, if you need anything, just ask, I will try my best to satisfy you."
Xue Ji looked at Zuo Xiong and said softly: "Thank you Qianhu for taking care of me. I just need to give you food and drink along the way so as not to die of thirst and starvation. I just hope that I can meet His Majesty when I get to the capital. I am afraid that I will not escape this time. I just hope that I can Use this passion to awaken Your Majesty."
Zuo Xiong was silent for a while.
Seeing the chains on Xue Ji's hands and feet, he said, "Master Xue, it must be very uncomfortable for you to have the chains on. How about I take them off for you?"
Xue Ji looked at Zuo Qianhu in surprise.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Zuo Xiong opened his hand and released the official seal of the City God's guard. The official seal floated in the palm of his hand. Xue Ji was slightly startled after seeing the official seal and asked in surprise: "Do you also belong to the City God?"
"Lingwang Fuming summoned me last night and asked me to be the guard general and ask me to take care of Xue Chenghuang all the way!" Zuo Xiong said.
Xue Ji felt warm in his heart. He didn't expect Lord Cheng Huang to think so thoughtfully about him. How lucky he was to be the subordinate of King Fu Ming Ling.
"Do you want me to take off the chains, sir?" Zuo Qianhu asked again.
Xue Ji shook his head, "Wearing shackles as a prison cart is a court rule and cannot be broken. There is no need to break the rule for me."
Zuo Qianhu gently handed over to Xue Ji and returned to his team. Everything he did was seen by the other Jinyi guards. One of his subordinates asked in a low voice: "Qianhu, he is just a governor. Our elders, The minister has arrested many people, so why do you care so much about Xue Ji?"
Everyone else also looked at Zuo Qianhu.
Zuo Qianhu glanced at these brothers and said solemnly: "Please be careful and take care of Mr. Xue on the way. Don't ask any other questions."
"Yes, Chihu!"
All the royal guards responded immediately.
But with Zuo Xiong's words, they knew what they should do along the way, and they would never dare to neglect Xue Ji.
After breakfast, we continued on the road. The speed of the carriage was obviously much slower. Liu Langzhong came over and asked why the speed was lowered. Zuo Xiong replied that it was safer to go slower. In fact, he was afraid that Xue Ji in the prison car would be too bumpy.
Jiang Hao returned to Kaifeng City God's Mansion, sat on the main seat and began to think deeply.
Knowing that the Imperial Master was in the capital, he had never gone there before. All he had done was to accumulate strength. Now that he had achieved strength, it was time to go to the capital.
Perhaps this time, it will be a head-on collision with the national master.
With a gentle flick of the table, there were pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table. I picked up the brush and started writing the letter. After writing, I waited for the ink to dry, then folded it skillfully into a paper crane, and then blew gently on the paper crane.
Thrilling.
The paper crane flapped its wings and quickly flew out of the City God's Temple.
In this way, Jiang Hao wrote dozens of letters and released dozens of paper cranes.
After finishing this, Jiang Hao said in a deep voice: "Where is Zhu Guang!"
Brush~!
Zhu Guang flashed out.
"I've met the young master!"
"Go back to Jinhua immediately and inform Zhuge Wolong to take all his men and rush to Hejian Mansion as quickly as possible. I will meet him there." Jiang Hao ordered.
Zhu Guang's figure disappeared.
Laoshan.
Taiping Palace.
The old Taoist Xuanji is meditating, feeling peaceful and happy. Since he became the Provincial City God, the pressure on him to cultivate immortality has been reduced by 80%. In the past, he was still a little anxious because he was worried about longevity, hoping to make a breakthrough, but now he no longer has to worry about longevity. Later I could become the City God, and suddenly I felt so relaxed.
But under this kind of relaxation, he felt that his cultivation, which had not broken through for decades, was now faintly experiencing a breakthrough.
Old Taoist Xuanji stood up, walked outside, looked at the vast sea of clouds in the distance, and said softly: "As the saying goes, "Tao follows nature." Naturally, doing things without doing anything is the right way."
"The Diamond Sutra talks about the unconditioned Dharma, which means that the Dharma does not take on any form, is not stained, and does not have any faults or renunciations."
"I don't force myself, but I get it, haha."
At this moment, Xuanji's mind suddenly moved and he looked into the distance. Not long after, a paper crane passed through the sea of clouds and flew to Xuanji's side.
Old Taoist Xuanji opened his hand, the paper crane fell down, and vividly pecked his own wings with his small beak, just like a bird.
"Junior brother, the paper crane's skill of passing messages is getting better and better."
Old Taoist Xuanji gently opened the paper crane. There was a text message from Jiang Hao on it. The content was very concise, but the tone was very serious.
"Senior brother, I am preparing to enter the capital. This time I will definitely face off against that old demon. Please help me, senior brother."
After reading this, Old Taoist Xuanji looked a little more serious. He immediately returned to the main hall and ordered people to ring the big bell and summon all the disciples of Laoshan Mountain.
Shushan.
Jinding Hall!
Master Qi Ming, the master of Shushan, was practicing when he suddenly felt something. He opened his eyes, thought for a while, and performed a hand move. Not long after, a paper crane flew into the Shushan formation, flew to the Golden Cauldron Hall, and landed on Master Qi Ming. On hand.
Master Qi Ming was surprised who had written to him and gently opened the letter.
"Master Qi Ming is polite!"
What surprised Master Qi Ming was that this letter was actually written to him by the City God. In the letter, Master Qi Ming saw a piece of news that shocked him.
Jiang Hao told Master Qi Ming that the current national master was transformed into a monster and absorbed the country's destiny for cultivation, causing the country's destiny to decline rapidly. Soon there will be a catastrophe that will overthrow the dynasty. By then, it will be a disaster for the people of the world.
As the City God of the City, he wants to slay demons to save the common people in the world, so he asks Master Qi Ming and his Shushan disciples to help.
Although some people in Shushan have joined the City God system, they are not like other sects. Among the five golden elixir monks in Shushan, only Master Lingyun has joined. There are more than a hundred disciples. Most of the Shushan disciples are still practicing at the mountain gate, hoping to become immortals.
Master Qi Ming is a high-level Jindan cultivator, and his strength can be said to be the best in the world. Jiang Hao naturally hopes that he can help.
Master Qi Ming thought for a moment and immediately called his disciples, "Inform Elder Wufeng to come to Jinding Hall to discuss matters."
At the same time, other sects, sects, and city gods also received the letter from Jiang Haofeihe and took action one after another.
After Jiang Hao passed the letter, he called Hu Xinyue. Hu Xinyue was also very busy now, and she was responsible for the affairs of the chamber of commerce and the bank.
"Xin Yue, I have something to go out for. Please don't follow me this time. You need to continue to keep an eye on things in Henan, but I want to take Five Ghosts and the others away," Jiang Hao said.
"Langjun, just go and be busy, the Hu Family Trading Firm has all the manpower here, and we can fully cope with it." Hu Xinyue said.
The next day.
Jiang Hao led the five ghosts to set out and arrived at Hejian Mansion within a day.
Xue Ji was pressed in the prison car. Although he was cared for by Zuo Qianhu and slept in the open air for more than ten days, he still became very haggard, with his hair disheveled and his beard flying everywhere. However, he was completely unaware of it and rarely spoke every day.
He had made up his mind and was determined to die. When he arrived in the capital, whenever he had the chance to see the emperor, he would state all his thoughts in the hope of impressing the emperor.
The prison car swayed, and Xue Ji's body couldn't help but sway. Zuo Qianhu rode up and said, "Master Xue, Baoding Mansion is in front of us. We have been traveling for many days. I just discussed with Master Liu to take a rest at Baoding Station." In the evening, have a hot meal and set off tomorrow morning. It will take two or three days to reach the capital."
Xue Ji opened his eyes and nodded to Zuo Qianhu.
It was getting dark, and there were no pedestrians on the official road. According to the map, it was estimated that the inn was five or six miles away, so the team hurried on.
Just when they were approaching the inn, they suddenly heard bursts of drum music coming from in front, mixed with chanting and Sanskrit sounds. Zuo Xiong was stunned and asked the team to stop. After a short time, a huge team appeared on the opposite side, heading towards They come over.
In front of the team is the drum team, with silk umbrellas on both sides. Zuo Xiong is sitting on the horse. Looking up, the entire team cannot be seen. There are probably more than a thousand people.
In the middle of the procession is a carriage, and below it is a huge lotus-shaped altar. The surrounding carvings are extremely luxurious and gold lacquered. The top of the head is covered with fine gauze and silk. There are many people around holding lanterns. The light shines on the fine gauze and silk. It can be seen that There was a figure sitting in the car.
Zuo Qianhu was stunned. He had seen this Luang Chariot in the capital. It was the Luan Chariot of the Imperial Preceptor Pudu Cihang.
"It's Luan Jia, the master of the imperial court. Why is the master here?" Zuo Xiong murmured.
Next to him, Dr. Liu saw the National Master's team and immediately got out of the car. He stood aside obediently and listened to Zuo Xiong talking to himself. He whispered: "Perhaps the Master is traveling to teach the Dharma."
Zuo Xiong thought for a while, and his heart moved. He had already decided that Xue Ji was a good official and must have been wronged. The emperor now trusted the imperial advisor the most. He asked the imperial advisor to state the reason and asked the imperial advisor to explain it in front of the emperor. Maybe Xue Ji Adults will have a better chance.
He didn't know that Xue Ji's arrest this time was under the control of the Imperial Preceptor. The Imperial Preceptor came here to wait for Xue Ji in advance so that he could find out what happened to the City God as soon as possible.
Because Centipede Jing always feels that the City God will become his biggest enemy.
Zuo Qianhu immediately stepped forward quickly, and the team immediately stopped. Zuo Qianhu stood in front of the Dharma frame, bowed and said: "Jinyi Guard Qianhu Zuoxiong comes to protect the country."
"In my humble position, I discovered that Xue Ji, the governor of Henan Province, was not a treacherous minister and a rebel. He was actually a loyal and righteous man who was deeply loved by the people of Henan Province. Many of the crimes convicted by the court were untrue. Please uphold justice!"
Brush~~!
The fine gauze and silk ribbons of the chariot flew up, revealing the national master sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform.
The imperial master was wearing a yellow monk's robe and a pointed hat, with a solemn appearance and a compassionate face. He looked at Zuo Qianhu and said: "In today's world, too many people do not distinguish between right and wrong and do not understand the hardships of the court. I am concerned about Xue Ji's matter." I have heard that killing locusts and smashing the idols saved the country for a while, but it brought greater disaster to the court."
"My abbot's trip this time is to help the court solve problems and eliminate the trouble caused by Xue Ji."
"Let's do this. You bring Xue Ji. I have some things I need to ask about so that we can eliminate this disaster and maybe save him."
When Zuo Qianhu heard this, he immediately went back and asked someone to open the prison car. He personally helped the weak Xue Ji forward.
When Xue Ji saw Pudu Cihang, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes, and he pursed his lips and said nothing. In his heart, this national preceptor was the source of the country's disaster.
Jiang Hao did not tell Xue Ji the true identity of the Imperial Preceptor. Xue Ji did not know that the Imperial Preceptor was more harmful than he thought. It would not only bring trouble to the imperial court, but also drain the luck of the entire country.
A flash of light flashed in the eyes of the Imperial Master, and he stretched out his hand towards Xue Ji. Xue Ji flew over in a swish. When he arrived in front of the Dharma frame car, Xue Ji felt that he was grabbed by an invisible big hand and could not move at all. , and was horrified.
The Imperial Master looked down at Xue Ji with a deep voice.
"Tell me, where did that City God come from, and what is your relationship with that City God!"
