Chapter 572: Extend Huangfu Song's Life! [Ask for Monthly Votes]

"Old monk, come slowly, don't pinch your fingers and make them bleed."

Wukong joked, pretending to sit on the grass casually. Just when he wanted to touch the huge bird's nest, it moved back several feet as if it was alive.

The black bear demon chuckled:

"This nest seems to have consciousness, don't scare it, brother."

Wukong observed it and became more interested. Just when he was about to walk over to observe it again, Xuanzang spoke:

"Wukong, don't be naughty, lest you make the Zen master unhappy."

The Zen master Wuchao couldn't calculate the changes in the world, so he simply stopped worrying about it. With a wave of his sleeves, the huge bird's nest flew over, gradually became smaller, and was finally put into his sleeves.

Wukong gave up now:

"Master, do you know Zhu Ganglie?"

"Two years ago, I passed by Yunzhan Cave and saw that the god had turned into a demon cultivator. I felt sorry for it, so I specially invited him to practice with me. After he refused, I calculated that he had a great opportunity and thought he would become Xuanzang's disciple. I didn't expect it to be a misunderstanding."

Wukong said with a smile:

"You are not wrong, but it's a pity that the world has changed now. It's not the same as before."

Master Wuchao nodded:

"That's true. I just calculated and realized that it's different... The Heart Sutra I originally prepared for Xuanzang seems to need to be modified."

After saying that, he sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and silently recited the scriptures.

Wukong didn't care at first, but soon noticed that the bird's nest in Master Wuchao's sleeve flickered, which looked very special, and those messy dead branches seemed to imply some concepts of both Buddhism and Taoism.

Obviously, Master Wuchao's origin is very mysterious.

Soon, the old monk stood up and said to Xuanzang:

"Just now, Vairocana Buddha personally revised the content of the Heart Sutra. I will tell you now...your two disciples..."

Before he finished speaking, Xuanzang pointed to the little white dragon next to him:

"Three disciples, this horse is also my disciple."

The original book always mentioned three disciples, but the little white dragon always called the master, so now in front of outsiders, this point must be emphasized.

Although the little white dragon turned into a horse because he was guilty and made meritorious deeds to eliminate his sins, who in the world is not guilty?

After hearing this, the white dragon horse let out a joyful neigh, and the eyes of the Zen Master Wuchao also showed approval:

"Then you and your three disciples listen carefully, I will teach you the content of the Heart Sutra now, don't panic if you encounter an accident, and someone will help you if you recite the Heart Sutra silently."

The Heart Sutra can not only eliminate tension, but also summon the care of Ksitigarbha.

Master Wuchao recited the Heart Sutra, confirmed that everyone had memorized it, and raised his hand to flick it. The bird's nest made of a pile of dead branches became two or three meters in diameter again.

He sat in it, put his hands together, and the bird's nest slowly flew into the air.

Wukong asked:

"Old Zen Master, aren't you going to give us verses?"

Master Wuchao said:

"The world has changed, and the verses are no longer useful. I wish you all a safe journey and we will meet again in Lingshan someday!"

After that, he flew away with the bird's nest.

After a long while, the black bear demon silently recited the Heart Sutra and whispered to Wukong:

"Brother, I found that this Wuchao Zen Master doesn't seem to be a human..."

"Nonsense, if he were a human, he would have died of suffocation if he didn't freeze to death after flying so high... I don't know what level this Zen Master is."

The black bear demon pulled Wukong's sleeve and said:

"That's not what I meant. Brother, didn't you find that his bird's nest is very different?"

Wukong thought for a while and asked back:

"You mean, the bird's nest is his body?"

"It's very possible, but I don't know the details. The bear can't tell either. If you want to know the specific situation, you may have to rely on the Conferred Gods... If a war of gods breaks out there, can I apply to watch it? "

Wukong laughed:

"Of course, I want to go there to learn a few more magical powers, so that I won't be insufficient when fighting the enemy... It's good for Xiao Erlang to master the one-qi-transformation-three-purities, which is better than my external incarnation."

Although Wukong has top talent, he has only studied in the Three-Star Cave of the Slanting Moon for twenty years. For a cultivator, these twenty years are not even as long as they yawn, and they can't learn any real skills at all.

Now that he can go to the Conferred Gods world for further study and witness the magic battles of the Daluo level, he will naturally not miss this opportunity.

Xuanzang said:

"If there is a war in the Conferred God World, I will ask the Queen to take you there to watch the war, but now the Conferred God List has not been released, and both sides are quite quiet."

The master and his disciples did not set off immediately, but rested for a long time in this place with birds singing and flowers blooming. Xuanzang did not eat noodles today. He turned on the gas stove, switched to a frying pan, heated a stack of naan, and ate it with the mushroom sauce sent by Lin Xu.

It is not a good thing to eat noodles all the time, you have to change your taste.

Xuanzang ate most of the naan, and the rest went into the stomach of the black bear.

Wukong ate a can of assorted food, and flew to the Five Elements Mountain with a somersault cloud, and watched the grand scene of Qin Qiong, the great marshal of the Western Expedition, leading his troops out of the pass in mid-air.

As for Su Dingfang, who served as the vanguard general, he was already two hundred miles away at this time, enjoying the joy of passing the order.

The classical militaristic dragon of the Tang Dynasty bared its fangs, and the neighbors around should not be able to sleep!

After eating the naan, Xuanzang came to the real world and told the story of his encounter with Master Wuchao.

Li Yu was also very interested in the origin of this old monk:

"Let's go back to the Conferred Gods and maybe we can get the answer."

Xuanzang went to the mountain to check the progress of the small temple construction and found that it was much faster than he had imagined. At this moment, the foundation part has been completed. As for the main part, it will take a few days to complete. When the time comes, the pillars will be put on the wall and the roof will be sealed.

The workers saw a monk in plain clothes coming and said with a smile:

"After we get the donation box, you should buy some new clothes. If you dress too plainly, it will not be conducive to believers to donate money. The more luxurious the clothes, the more people will think you are welcome, and they will donate more money."

Xuan Zang shook his head and said:

"There is no donation box here, and believers are not required to donate money or materials."

Everyone became curious:

"Then how do you make money? Do you charge for spiritual classes? You can't make much money from that."

"Not making money, believing in Buddhism is to give people a spiritual sustenance and soothe their tired souls. If you do it for money, it's too low."

After chatting with these workers for a while, Xuan Zang came to the foot of the mountain, took out his mobile phone and bought a few boxes of drinks, and asked the workers in charge of the cableway to send them to the mountain with the materials to quench the thirst of the people above.

The owner of the canteen was a little confused:

"Didn't Boss Li pay for the project? Why are you so polite?"

Xuan Zang smiled and said:

"As the descendant of Buddha, I can't treat anyone who works for Buddha unfairly."

After leaving the scenic area, Xuan Zang returned to the homestay, said hello to everyone, and then went back to the Journey to the West to continue his journey.

Li Yu came upstairs and happened to meet Diao Chan dragging a suitcase out of room 201:

"Are you ready? Then let's go now."

Today is the day to go back to school. The little girl has to report to the school and pick up the camouflage uniform by the way, preparing to participate in the school's military training.

Li Yu took the box, took Diao Chan's hand and went downstairs, put the suitcase in the car, and then the two drove straight to the city.

When they arrived at the door of the archaeological team, Zhou Ruotong was already waiting with a parasol. After she got in the car, Li Yu turned to the driving school and picked up Mu Guiying who had just finished practicing subject three, and everyone went to the Moral Education Bilingual School together.

Diao Chan still lives in the old dormitory, and her roommates are still the same girls. They were still in the same class in high school, so they can take care of each other.

After settling the little girl, they went to the cafeteria again. After a summer vacation, the restaurant had several more windows, and even Cantonese-style snacks were available.

As expected of a private school, the food is rich.

Li Yu thought of the lunch when he was in high school, which had few choices, and felt that it was really different from here.

After a round, he went to the principal's office to chat with the leaders here, and accompanied the little girl to get a set of suitable camouflage uniforms. Li Yu and the other two said goodbye and left.

"Little Fairy Chan went to school, but I am about to graduate..."

Mu Guiying was not honest in the car, and she lay on the back seat with a tilted body.

Li Yu quickly slowed down the car, fearing that a sudden brake would make the girl roll under the seat:

"You just go to a driving school, don't even mention graduation, you're more sad than the senior students... Speaking of driving school, I remember the summer vacation after graduating from high school, when I was learning to drive with Sun Facai, a guy who was practicing subject three, gave Sun Facai and me a wedding invitation the next day after we met, and said something about the friendship between classmates that can't be forgotten."

Zhou Ruotong laughed:

"Why do you two always encounter such strange things? Did you go to give gifts?"

"I did, anyway, after practicing driving, there was no place to eat, so I gave a red envelope. After a good meal, Sun Facai even took over the host's position and got the bride's family members drunk so much that they slipped under the table... The guy must have been bullied by the bride's family members a lot, and he was very happy to see this. When he sent us off, he returned the red envelope. "

"Oh, you are a particular person."

"Yinzhou is a small place, you can see people everywhere, and the human touch is strong."

Hearing this, Mu Guiying slapped her thigh:

"Oh, I lost out by choosing this super VIP chartered car. I don't have any classmates, and I have no place to send invitations."

Li Yu: "..."

Why are your focus always so novel?

Turning to the ring road, he asked:

"What do you want to eat tonight? There is still a piece of tuna left. It is not good to keep it frozen. Let's eat it quickly. Let Zishou send some meat every few days in the future."

Mu Guiying sat up straight and thought of a delicacy:

"How about the dumpling soup? Tuna dumpling soup, a collision of high-end ingredients and civilian food, the taste must be different."

"Okay, I will stir some dumplings when I go back later. What does Professor Zhou want to eat?"

"Let's have some tuna meat pie. I didn't eat enough yesterday. I will eat it again today."

"No problem."

When the family of three discussed dinner, Lu Bu and his men finally rushed back to the Yellow River in the Three Kingdoms world.

It has been almost ten days since we last met. Construction has already started here. Although there is no piling, there are many large stones piled up at the construction site. After the piling is completed, these large stones will be used to build slope protection at both ends of the bridge to prevent soil erosion on the levee from causing the bridge to be unstable.

Lü Bu looked across with a telescope and asked the captain in charge of the construction:

"Has the point for piling been determined?"

"It has been determined. We also used a Luoyang shovel to probe the soil layer. There is a rock layer under the clay. It is quite solid and not easy to collapse."

"Since it has been determined, let's get ready to start. Tell me if you need anything..."

After the soldiers took the order and left, Dian Wei turned over and got off his big black horse. He took out a piece of spicy baked naan sponsored by Mu Kezhai from his saddle bag and took a big bite:

"When can we see the scene of piling?"

"At least it won't be until the day after tomorrow. Don't worry, we can't destroy a bridge because of piles."

Upon hearing this, Dian Wei said to Tuoba Liwei, who had his hands tied behind his back:

"I really envy you. You will be free in two days. Unlike us, we have to travel for decades... Oh, what a hard life!"

Tuoba Liwei: "..."

If my hands weren't tied, if I couldn't beat you, I really want to...

He was just about to say some harsh words when Tuoba Jiefen came over with a flattering look on his face:

"Marquis Wen, General Dian, we have realized our mistake. If we kill them, we will dirty the hands of several superiors. Otherwise, we will treat our family like dogs. In the future, if any tribe is displeased, we will take the lead and kill them for everyone." Shangguan vented his anger."

Lu Bu was happy when he heard this:

"No wonder he became the leader of Suo Tou. His attitude of being able to bend and stretch is not something ordinary Xianbei can compare with."

Unfortunately, the more he behaves like this, the more he needs to get rid of him to avoid the trouble of raising a dog in the future.

Seeing that Lu Bu didn't answer any questions, Tuoba Jiefen said again:

"I heard that the general likes gold. In fact, there is still some gold buried in the back of our camp. If the general spares our lives, I am willing to give the gold to the general."

If you can't beg for mercy, are you planning to pay bribes?

Lu Bu followed his words and asked:

"Where exactly is it buried?"

"This... is relatively hidden. I need to go back in person to find it. In addition, I also know where Baibe Xianbei hides food. If..."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Yu, who was reporting the situation through the intercom, waved his hand to the soldiers and said:

"Chop his little son into pieces and feed it to the wolves!"

In front of a big man, why is it your turn to negotiate terms?

At this time, Tuoba Jiefen finally did not dare to be mean, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

Lu Bu asked:

"Have you hidden any gold?"

"It's hidden. It's under the fifth stable. You can find it by digging out the animal trough about three feet. This is absolutely true. The general can send someone over to take a look."

Lu Bu took the walkie-talkie and directly contacted the captain who was staying behind:

"Under the fifth stable, remove the animal trough and dig down to see if there are any surprises."

Tuoba Jiefen originally wanted to sign up for a position, but anyway, it would take several days to come and go, which would be enough for the father and son to survive for a while.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu did not follow common sense and could directly contact the camp. He quickly put aside his thoughts of playing tricks and revealed the real burial location: under an abandoned dry well in the back camp.

In this way, Lu Bu seized hundreds of kilograms of gold at one time.

This gold might have been the capital for Tuoba Liwei's rise later. Unfortunately, now, all the gold belongs to Lu Bu. He plans to melt it, purify it, and then send it all to the real world to purchase new supplies.

After Cheng Yu reported to Chang'an, he ate something casually, inspected the newly built prisoner camp on horseback, and put Xianbei civilians in. As long as they performed well, they would be incorporated into the wasteland reclamation team.

As for the leaders of Suo's head, they are held in solitary confinement.

Two days later, the pile driver officially started working.

Tuoba Jiefen's family, each with a cement pile, was sent underground.

After the death of this family, Xuandu, who was watching from the sky, saw that a large number of merits had fallen on Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Cheng Yu and the soldiers who participated in the battle, and they were immediately envious:

"If I had known there were so many merits, I would have taken action."

Zhang Daoling said:

"The Tuoba family has been wreaking havoc on the Central Plains for a hundred years, and the Tufa family has been in Liangzhou for more than two hundred years. During this period, countless people have been killed and injured. The death of this family now has avoided many killings in the future, and there will naturally be many merits... Brother Dao, don’t worry, we can harvest a lot of merit when they reach the Holy Mountain of the Huns.”

Destroying foreign gods is a lot of merit. The two of them are just about to join forces. When the time comes, they will kill Changsheng Tian like a knife to cut through the mess, so that other gods will not have to share the merit.

However, while the two were discussing, Jizo came:

"Changshengtian is not so easy to kill. Don't eat alone."

Zhang Daoling laughed dryly:

"Nothing happens, we just make some plans... By the way, I heard that the underworld is preparing to besiege Amaterasu in Japan? Is this possible?"

"No, it must be a rumor. No matter what the underworld does, it will definitely communicate with you."

Ksitigarbha laughed and quickly changed the subject.

While a few people were chatting, Sikong Zhangxi, who was traveling westward from Chang'an, hurriedly and slowly arrived at Linqiang City and saw Huangfu Song who was warming himself around the stove.

Compared with some time ago, Huangfusong's condition was worse and he couldn't stop coughing.

He knew that the deadline was approaching, so he told everyone about various arrangements for attacking the plateau almost every day.

Seeing his old colleague Zhang Xi, Huangfu Song stood up tremblingly, raised his hands and saluted:

"It's a blessing to be able to see old friends again when the deadline is approaching!"

Zhang Xi originally wanted to say a few polite words, but seeing Huangfu Song's state, he quickly ordered Huangfu Li and others:

"Hurry up and put the offerings on the incense table. I have an imperial edict to read out...Brother Huangfu, please explain to me, are you nostalgic for the land of Han Dynasty?"

If you really want to leave, you can change to another imperial edict. In short, everything depends on the wishes of the old general.

Huangfusong took two breaths:

"My Han Dynasty has a vast territory. Although it has gone through many ups and downs, it is now rising again. I regret that I can't see that day... Why did Sikong come here? If I are allowed to return to Chang'an, please take back my life. I just want to die here, how can I None of them are gone.”

Hearing this, Zhang Xi hurriedly supported Huangfu Song and asked:

"Brother, to tell you the truth, I was ordered to ask the gods to help you prolong your life... The last time General Lu also had the help of the gods to prolong his life. You have just made meritorious service. His Majesty decided to exchange your military merit for life. Are you willing?"

Huangfu Song thought he had heard it wrong:

"Really? Are you kidding me?"

Zhang Xi helped him calm down:

"Whether it is a joke or not, you will know soon... Just put some things casually, start quickly, don't let the old general wait too long!"

In the sky, Zhang Daoling heard this and stepped over Linqiang City, ready to prolong Huangfu Song's life, and take him to the plateau for a flight to feel the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland!
