Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 376 The Great Tengu Fights the Demon King

There is a mountain about zhang high tens of miles north of Ping'an, and this is Anma Mountain.At the southern foot of the mountain, there is a majestic treasure temple, which is also the Anma Temple.

The Anma Temple was founded by Master Jianzhen, an apprentice of Master Jianzhen of Guohai, and it has been more than years since then.

There is a valley behind the temple, which is the place where the monks of all dynasties in the temple are buried, and it is called Sengzheng Valley.

A monk is an upright person, the title of a monk official. It is said in "A Brief History of Monks in the Great Song Dynasty": "Uprightness means politics; self-righteousness means restraining government orders. It is said that monks can't do it, just like a horse without a bridle, and an ox without a penis." The rope, which gradually catches the customs, will be obedient and elegant, so if there is a person with virtue, he will be roped according to the law, and the order will return to righteousness, so it is called Seng Zhengye."

In a word: the first seat of the Discipline Academy.

Sengzheng is also called Fayin, and its subordinate is Sengdu, which is also called Fayan, and its subordinate is lawyer, and lawyer is also called Faqiao.

In the monk Zhenggu of Anma Temple, there are monks who practice here. Their surname is Guiyi, but their name is unknown. People call it "Guiyi Dharma Eye".

Gui Yifayan is well-known in Fusang for his swordsmanship, and he lives in seclusion. Whenever he appears in front of people, he always wears a mask with a red face and a long nose.Little people don't know the truth, and spread rumors, saying that he is a monk who is reincarnated and turned into a tengu, that is, "Anmashan Temple Monk Zhengfang Big Tengu".

One day, Gui Yifayan was meditating, when a monk came to report suddenly, and a royal messenger came to see him. Gui Yifayan received a lot of offerings from the royal family, so he put on a mask and sent the messenger into the valley.

The messenger hurried forward, saluted, and handed over the letter. After the ghost saw it, his eyes flashed, and he said indifferently: "With the power of one person, I can kill a hundred people. I can do it. Send more people to encircle and suppress." , why do I need to go out?"

The messenger said in a low voice: "His Majesty the Emperor invited Mr. Abe Taiqin to watch the stars and divination in person. The divination words said: the demon king rides a dragon to the west, the nine-tailed fox conceives a calamity, the sixteen ghosts make trouble in the world, and Ping'an capital is blood-stained." Moss! According to the report of the scouts, the man crossed the sea with a whale, the whale was as big as a mountain, Mr. Abe must have been transformed by the Dragon King."

Hearing this, Gui Yifayan remained indifferent for a moment, slowly straightened his back, and said in a deep voice, "Abe Taiqin's ability is not inferior to that of his great ancestor Qingming. Since it is his divination, it should not be underestimated. Zizai Tianma It is the enemy of the Buddha, and when it comes to Fusang, it must be the Buddha who wants to use my hands to destroy this beast!"

Speaking of this, he suddenly got up and shouted: "You go and report to the Emperor, I will kill the demons on the shore of Lake Biwa, and protect the country and the Dao."

At the same moment, Cao Cao frowned, and said coldly, "There's no need to look for it, your servant must be a spy sent by the enemy."

Sakabe Ichiro looked ugly, shook his head and said: "How could this be? This person has been following me for more than three years, how could he be a spy?"

Cao Cao sneered, "That only means that three years ago, you were targeted by the enemy."

It turned out that three days ago, in the battle outside the dense forest of the Echizen Kingdom, Cao Cao beheaded hundreds of people, Shiqian and Sakabe raided the formation, and none of them escaped. However, when he woke up at the camp the next day, one of Sakabe Ichiro's servants suddenly called Xiong Zaka Chang Fan's whereabouts are missing.

Before meeting Cao Cao, Sakabe and his party went to Heian-kyo, and were assassinated many times along the way. This Kumasaka Changfan was the bravest in battle, and he was highly expected by Sakabe Ichiro. He was going to recommend him to his lord, Fujiwara Nagami, as a samurai, but unexpectedly. Time is gone.

Seeing Ichiro Sakabe shaking his head in disbelief, Cao Cao didn't want to say more, but Yuzao in front of the sedan chair said softly: "My lord foster father, didn't you have any doubts? We came from Nasu, how are our whereabouts kept secret? But why the enemy Can you repeatedly surround us?"

Ichiro Sakabe was startled, and said in shock, "Because there are spies among us?"

He looked viciously at the remaining six servants, including Hattori Shinobi, and shook his head quickly. Ichiro Sakabe looked away, and his expression gradually became grim: "Is it really Kumasaka-kun? It's in vain that I treat him so favorably." ! If we meet again, I will kill him."

Yuzao said softly: "If he is really a spy, I am afraid that at this time, the information that Lord Wu Zhi and Lord Shi Qian have helped us is already in the hands of Emperor Baihe..."

Ichiro Sakabe gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, we can only hurry on our way desperately. I hope Mr. Zhong Nayan can send someone to help when he gets the news."

Immediately hurrying on the road, at dusk, I saw a huge lake head-on. The surrounding mountains were undulating and reflected in the lake, which made people feel refreshed. Cao Cao and Shi Qian praised in unison: "What a big lake, really Extraordinary."

Sakabe Ichiro was very proud to see the two "envoys from the upper kingdom" praising the scenery of his country, and pointed out: "This Lake Biwa is also! It is nearly a hundred miles long from north to south. I will arrive at Heian-kyo by walking along the lake."

Cao Cao looked around, but saw high mountains and dense forests, and only the road by the lake was easy to pass through. He sighed, "In this way, it would be easy for the enemy to intercept him."

When staying by the lake for the night, Ichiro Sakabe took his servants to catch fish in the lake. Seizing an opportunity, Shi Qian pulled Cao Cao aside and whispered, "Brother, since you know that you will encounter enemies if you walk along the lake, why not go around the mountain?" ?”

Cao Cao said: "This time I set foot in Fusang by mistake, I have already lost a lot of time. If I finish this matter early, I can find a boat to go back. If I go around the mountains, I don't know how long it will take."

Shi Qian was puzzled and said: "If you are eager to return, why do you need to get involved in the affairs of the Fusang people? Abandoning these people, my brother and I went straight to the Ping'an capital. How difficult is it for my younger brother to find some means to get some gold and silver? A port, just buy a boat and walk."

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "But it's not! Brother, I didn't intend to come here, but since God's will came here, I gave birth to a different idea-this Fusang country is just to the east of the Jin country, and the whale sea doesn't seem to be very big. Let’s think about it, if one day we fight against the Kingdom of Jin, then we can send an army across the sea to reach the heart of the Kingdom of Jin, so what?”

Shi Qian was surprised when he heard this, and only then did he realize that Cao Cao wanted to make a big deal, and he couldn't help saying: "Then Fusang Kingdom has its own ruler, so how can it be easy to send troops?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "That's why I don't abandon them! Nagato Fujiwara Nagami is obviously a member of the emperor's faction. Now Fusang's authority is in the hands of his grandfather Shirakawa. Hehe, pick up the ashes." How can he be reconciled to the majesty of the emperor? The emperor and the emperor are fighting, isn't it the time for us to take advantage of it?"

Shi Qian said in surprise: "So that's the case! My brother has only been in Fusang for a few days, and he has made such a grand plan. It's really extravagant! Just look at his situation, the emperor is weak, so what if he loses?"

Cao Cao rolled his eyes, laughed and said, "If it wasn't for his weakness, how could I make a good move? As for the defeat, if you lose, you will lose. You and I are wearing treasure armor and are skilled in art. It's not difficult to run for our lives. It's not easy." Escape from that Ping'an capital, don't look for a big city, let you display your skills, earn some money and buy a boat to go back."

When Shi Qian thought about it, he couldn't help laughing: "My little brother thinks too much. Anyway, it's about his Fusang country. It's best to make a big fuss. If you can get it, it's best. If you can't, then you can come and play with your brother." But——hahaha, I thought that the reason why my elder brother wanted to be the guard was because of the lady Fusang, if so, I should bring her back to Qingzhou with a pair of Mongolian sweat medicine."

The more he talked, the happier he became, and his eyes sparkled: "Hey, brother! In other words, that little Fusang lady is beautiful and beautiful, which is rare in the world. My brother thinks that the emperor with a bird tail, what virtue and ability, match Such a beautiful woman? Didn’t this woman tell her fortune that she would be a concubine? Maybe it’s due to my elder brother.”

When he said this, Lao Cao was stunned: My brother is right!

Lao Cao's husband's true colors, how can he be completely unmoved by Yuzao's appearance?It's just that the other party is the daughter of Yidi, and she looks down on her somewhat. Second, after seeing the strength of the Jurchen, she thinks about how to break it. I heard Sakabe Ichiro explain his domestic disputes before. For a while, I didn't make Tamamo's idea.

But when Shi Qian mentioned it, especially the words "concubine's role", it really touched Lao Cao's heart.

Just like Lu Pheasant, the queen of Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, there was also a fortune teller who said that she was "extraordinary in the world". Such things are like auspicious auspiciousness. I really don't believe it in my heart, and the people will inevitably take it seriously——

Otherwise, when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang started troubles, how could they be called foxes?
In addition, Yu Zaoqian's appearance is indeed rare, especially for Lao Cao, this small Fusang woman has a special beauty-he has three wives and concubines, Hu Sanniang is called "Yizhangqing", and Li Shishi is also the elder. Standing tall, although Pan Jinlian is more exquisite, she is still half a head taller than herself. Although a man is informal, who really wants to bow down?
Especially here in Fusang, after experiencing the taste of "superior" that he had never tried in two lifetimes, Lao Cao suddenly fell in love with the exquisite, small and well-proportioned woman.

After rolling his eyes more than a dozen times, Lao Cao chuckled and waved his hands: "Let's discuss this matter later. When I meet Emperor Toba, I will have my own opinion."

Piwa Lake is about a hundred miles long from north to south, and it goes around the lake, but it is far more than that. After another two days, it is still between the lake and the mountains. In the shade, I want to take a rest for a while, wait for the sun to calm down a little bit, and then go on my way.

They took out water and dry food, and were about to feed themselves, when they suddenly saw a strange person swaying in front of them.

The man was wearing a bamboo hat and Ruoyi, covering his face and figure, walking with his head bowed, waving a round fan in his left hand, and a long staff in his right hand, walking slowly.

When Lao Cao saw this person, he was a little displeased: How come there are such elders in the dignified Fusang country?

Judging by the size of this person, he might be around six feet, which is nothing in Song and Jin Dynasties, but in Fusang, it is a bit appalling.

Ichiro Sakabe and others also saw the person coming, and Sakabe called out in a low voice: "Oh! What a mighty big man!"

Immediately, he seemed to think of something, and was startled: "Ah! This big man, is it possible that he is a master sent by the Emperor, and wants to intercept and kill us?"

Cao Cao nodded and said in a low voice, "I passed by that village the day before yesterday. Didn't it mean that someone stole their horse? In my opinion, it was the spy who stole the horse and rushed to Ping'an capital to report. Hehe, now that I know Two brothers help you, if only one person is sent here, he must be a real master!"

Sakabe Ichiro shook his head and said: "Master Wu, don't underestimate yourself, you are not only as simple as beheading a hundred people, but also those who are light in weight, the samurai you killed are all famous masters in Heian capital, but they withered like cherry blossoms on the ground. Under your sword. Facing a unparalleled sword master like you, even with the arrogance of Emperor Baihe, he would not dare to send just one person to die, maybe...just a passerby."

Ichiro Sakabe has been away from Kyoto for more than ten years, but he does not know who has appeared in Kyoto in recent years, so he made such a judgment.

Cao Cao said: "But you don't have to think too much, it's just that soldiers come to stop you."

After all, the few people stopped looking at the weird man and cared about their food.

The weird man walked with his staff on his stick, and the Dodo sound came from far to near, until he was several feet away from Cao Cao and the others, and then he stopped when a strange voice came from under the bamboo hat: "The sword master of the Tang Dynasty who came across the dragon is you!" what?"

Cao Cao sighed: "Forget it, it really is the enemy." Standing up slowly: "You don't need to say much, just fight if you want, and I have to hurry after the fight."

Shi Qian thought to himself: Brother just said that if this person is an enemy, he must be a master. Since he is a master, how can he let brother take risks?If I hadn't made the first move, I would have been defeated, and my brother would have taken the opportunity to see the truth!

Immediately, he yelled strangely: "Rat who hides his head and shows his tail, just watch me 'fleas on the drum' reveal your face!"

The voice is still echoing, the person has leaped high, the slingshot in his hand is fully drawn, when the string is opened, a few cold lights are either directed or slanted, and even a light circles an arc and shoots at the back of the comer!
Shi Qian's slingshot has always been a steel ball, and its accuracy and strength are extremely good. However, he killed all the scouts before, and got some hidden weapons from the scouts, especially the "shuriken" that Ichiro Sakabe said. "For many.

Those shurikens are three-pointed, four-pointed, five-star, or six-pointed. Shi Qian has been playing with them for the past few days. His hands are far better than ordinary people. flowers come.

He felt that the shaking of his hand was not far enough, so he simply used a slingshot to shoot, and depending on the angle of placement, he shot different flight routes. Now he can shoot five shots at a time, either straight or curved, fast or slow, which is really hard to guard against. Difficult to flash.

Sakabe Ichiro cried out: "Good method!" Cold sweat broke out in his heart: If these shurikens are against me, I'm afraid they will definitely die!
However, that weird man smiled lowly, with a round fan in his hand, as if fluttering a butterfly, and with a few light taps, he arranged all the hidden weapons up, down, left, and right, without turning around, the long stick in his hand was thrown back, but there was a sound of ding , also blocked the hidden weapon behind his back, and heard the crisp sound, his staff was either iron or copper.

Shi Qian always remembered Cao Cao's four words "true master". He issued his shuriken, and then abandoned the slingshot. out, hit the opponent's lower plate directly.

It's okay to chop the sickle down, but the iron mound underneath is really unpredictable. Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he was about to applaud, but he saw the opponent leap back and land lightly a foot away, and the sickle hit the mound. Hit, all become empty.

This is exactly: the sword of the Fayan in the valley is cold, and the sickle is entwined by the time by the lake.The dog and the devil are on a narrow road, and the wind blows up the Fusang to cross the sea and mountains.
