Chapter 701 Pusher

Of course, the so-called chat cannot be an open visit. All clues will be covered behind the scenes, and nothing can be seen.

Zhao Changhe found the joy of wandering in the world. A puff of smoke passed behind the temple and hid in the shadow of the apse.

At this time, the temple fair was coming to an end outside.

Although Da Zhou said that there were often some gatherings during this period, they were obviously relatively small. This large-scale temple fair held during the Laba Festival is obviously the first and largest event after the revival of Buddhism in this world. The temple is also facing a formidable enemy and has sent enough monks to maintain order and ensure safety, for fear of causing any trouble. , which would be a devastating blow to the revival of Buddhism.

Master Yuancheng, the abbot, also sat in the hall, closing his eyes and chanting sutras. In fact, he used secret techniques to use his five senses to observe the changes within a few miles around.

It's a pity that his cultivation in the middle of the list has been crushed by Zhao Changhe, and he can't even notice that someone is watching behind him.

Sitting next to him was another old monk, Master Yuanxing, who was also an acquaintance of Zhao Changhe. He once helped Zhao Changhe stop the Wang family from assassinating him, and passed him the map of the Xuanwu Secret Realm to Zhao Changhe, although it was Zhao Changhe who saved it from the Maitreya cultists first. In return for their repayment, the affection was not shallow. Zhao Changhe had a very good impression of this old monk.

He also had a good impression of Yuan Cheng. When they first dealt with Maitreya together, the old monk didn't talk much, but he was very effective and he divided the spoils in a measured way.

These two masters should be the few remaining representatives of orthodox Buddhism in this world. Appearing here together proves the importance of this place to them.

Generally speaking, the character of orthodox Buddhism in this world should not be bad, but some things are a matter of stance - such as faith and luck. The secular royal power often conflicts with this sect on various issues such as taxation, corvee labor, population association, brainwashing and education. From the perspective of royal power, Zhou would feel that this is not fundamentally different from the Maitreya religion.

In fact, it is not that exaggerated. Zhao Changhe has seen Buddhists and Taoists who have had their legs broken in this world, and he knows that they can become huskies without any threat, but they may not always be Huang Tiandangli and Maitreya.

But this time, Zhao Changhe instinctively felt that there was a bit of a strange aura. They emerged too quickly, and they actually had a conflict with the Blood God Sect's branch here. This momentum was not right. I feel that Buddhism has been suppressed for too long, and I suddenly have a chance to breathe. I am afraid that I am too eager and may be used and pushed. Even Da Zhou felt that there was a "pusher", which further confirmed the speculation. What the promoters want to achieve remains to be seen.

At this time, a monk came in and reported: "The temple fair has ended and the lay people have dispersed one after another. There is no problem."

Yuan Cheng said: "Don't neglect it. Send monks to watch along the way and make sure everyone is safely inside the city. If we are robbed and killed outside, if anything goes wrong, our reputation will be very bad."

The monk who reported the report said: "It has been arranged. Along the way... I also found people from the Blood God Sect sneaking around, but I didn't know..."

Yuan Xing said: "Don't be nervous. The Blood God Sect is now under the direct subordinates of Donor Zhao. They don't dare to discredit their holy son and kill people indiscriminately. Logically speaking, they are now affiliated with the City Defense Department and should be secretly protecting them. The people are afraid that something will happen. They are scolding us thieves for looking for trouble and giving them extra work in the cold weather."

There was some laughter in the hall, and this vivid sound might indeed be the inner drama of the Blood God believers.

But there are also many monks who don't think so, and one person said: "The Blood God Sect believes in blood demons and killing, and has no intention of leading people to do good. I don't believe that these demon believers can become knights overnight. If King Zhao is here, he can restrain them , I do believe it... But the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. King Zhao doesn't know what sinister things they will do. "

This is indeed the worry of many people. Even Yuan Cheng was worried and said in a low voice: "There is no more suitable place to start than Jingxiang at the moment, and we can't do it just because of a few people who are at the helm of the Blood God Sect. Stay away and be careful. If possible, try not to conflict with the Blood God Cultists."

Wan Xing also said: "The last time we beat someone to death, it was indeed our people who acted unreasonably. It is not a problem with the Blood God Cult... On the contrary, they are upholding the law. You need to reflect again and again and restrain the disciples." ”

Zhao Changhe nodded after hearing this. These orthodox Buddhist schools seemed to be acceptable, and Da Zhou also had some prejudices.

In addition, they are worried about the Blood God Cult, but Zhao Changhe is not worried about the problems of these Blood God Cultists.

Because this group of people are not true blood god believers at all. They have never been baptized by the blood god's faith, and they have not even learned the blood evil skills... because these people are his Beimang subordinates, the bandits, because they are too Because he was a loser, he was not taken to the north by Xue Canghai to join the war. He stayed in a relatively peaceful place like Jingxiang and occupied a position in the Imperial City Defense Department, where he could lie down and eat his wages. This was considered the first benefit to follow Boss Zhao.

Although this group of people was not a kind person, they really didn't dare to embarrass him, and they were very different from the Blood God cultists that others imagined. The True Blood God cultists are basically not interested in women, but it is said that at least half of this group of people got married and settled down within this year. Their wives and children are still on the hot bed, and they still have the style of being bandits... At least Dazhou didn't sue them for anything bad. I just say that they are like firecrackers, which means they have a bad temper and may also imply contempt for intelligence, but it is obviously nothing evil and has nothing to do with bloodlust.

As a result, a monk in the hall said: "How could our believers be so angry that they killed someone? I still suspect that it was evil spirits guided by malicious intent. The Blood God Cult's skills are good at this. I'm afraid it was the people of the Blood God Cult who secretly drove them, and then they cried thief and made trouble for us."

Zhao Changhe's heart moved. This suspicion is quite interesting, but it's a pity that the target is wrong. Those people really don't know the blood evil skills. But from this point of view, is there a third party causing trouble?

Yuan Xing frowned and said: "Nonsense, what motive do they have to do this? If they want to blackmail, they don't come to blackmail!"

"Why do we need a motive... We are Buddhists, and they belong to the Four Symbols Cult. The struggle for human destiny and the struggle for incense are here..."

"This is just a group of low-level Blood God believers. How can they have such a far-sighted mind? Do you think Zhuque is here?"

"That may not be the case..."

There was an argument in the hall... Zhao Changhe frowned tightly, thinking in his heart that it was not good.

In this atmosphere, if a monk kills a Blood God believer or a Blood God believer kills a monk, hostile conflict between the two sides is inevitable. The ultimate goal is to break up Buddhism and the new dynasty, and to make Jingxiang chaotic again?

"No, no!" Just thinking about it, a monk ran in hurriedly outside, and said anxiously before entering the door: "Outside the forest at the edge of the city, Blood God believers robbed the people returning to the city. A senior brother went to stop them, but was hacked to death by the Blood God believers!"

A group of old monks in the hall stood up suddenly, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

An old monk said angrily: "Abbot, what are you thinking about? We respect King Zhao, but we can't let him be bullied!"

Yuan Cheng didn't bother to say more, and went out first: "Don't be impatient, stop the war first."

Zhao Changhe raised his head and looked at the air. He always felt that there was an extremely strange chaos in the sky above this place. When the incense and the power of faith disappeared in the space, it seemed to have a strange mutation, and it was distorted and enlarged in the shadow of the night sky, like a ghost face.

He thought about it, and instead of going to the murder scene, he went back into the forest from where he came. He took out a piece of paper and wrote a sentence on it, and stuck it on Wuzhui's back, and patted Wuzhui's head. Wuzhui nodded and flew away.

Zhao Changhe went back to the back of the temple, and while there were almost no strong men in the temple at this time, he unscrupulously released his five senses to find the entrance to the secret realm.

There must be a secret realm here, and the secret realm may be the "upper Buddha" of these monks, but Zhao Changhe can almost be sure that there are things in it that these monks don't know at all.
