Enter the temple.
Wang Ke ordered his men to look at the luggage and horses, and then everyone straightened their robes and walked towards the depths of the temple together.
Not long after.
After everyone entered the Ershan Gate and passed the Wei Tuo Hall, they entered a far-reaching corridor. Looking up, the four corners had not been repaired yet.
See this situation.
Wang Bodang said with a smile: "I just said that this temple is so strange. It must have been built recently."
Qin Qiong said: "That's right! It should be a newly built temple. Let's take a look at the back later!"
As they spoke, everyone walked back.
Walked for a while.
But I saw a new Hutoumen tower was built in the east, with a large vermilion plaque and three golden characters "Baode Temple" written in big letters.
Wang Bodang smiled slightly and said to everyone: "Let's go in and see what kind of virtue we can repay."
Everyone immediately walked inside.
Once inside the temple.
It is a small three-room temple, with a shrine standing in the middle.
The seat inside the niche is three feet high, and the shrine reaches to the ceiling, which is more than ten feet long. There is a Shinto statue standing inside, but it is standing.
But I saw this statue - wearing a cyan Fanyang felt hat with lotus leaf eaves on its head, a soap cloth sea green arrow suit, a yellow hood, a cooked leather collar belt, a tooth-branded hand-relieving knife hanging on the left and right, and a sanitary knives on the bottom. Wear buckskin boots.
Under the statue of the god, there is an immortal tablet with six gold characters written in regular script, which is "Benefactor Qiong's Five Life Tablets".
There is also a line of small characters next to the tablet that reads "Li Yuan, the official of the letter, worships with his hands washed".
When Qin Qiong saw this statue, his expression changed slightly.
at the same time.
Qi Guoyuan on the side said "Hey" involuntarily.
Wang Bodang stared at the statue, looking at the statue's face for a while, and then at Qin Qiong's appearance, and then moved his eyes to both sides. He saw two servants on the left and right of the statue, one leading a yellow gelding, and the other holding two sticks. Golden trump card.
"In previous years, when my brother went out to Luzhou, did he dress like this?"
Wang Bodang nodded slightly, then looked at Qin Qiong and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, this statue is none other than Brother Yu."
Qin Qiong knew what Uncle Wang wanted to ask, and immediately nodded and answered.
Wang Bodang felt quite strange when he heard this, so he asked: "Then, why is my brother's statue here?"
Qin Qiong sighed and told everyone about an old incident of his.
That time of year.
Qin Qiong is also a horse racing leader in Licheng County, Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province.
At that time, he was sending a group of prisoners to Luzhou on the order of the prefect.
He and his colleague Fan Hu were walking forward and passed by the Wu Xiangguo Shrine near Lintong Pass.
Qin Qiong said to Fan Hu: "I heard that Wu Zixu used to be a minister of the Ming Dynasty and held the princes hostage. He lifted a thousand catties of cauldron at the Lintong meeting and was famous in the world. He was loyal and righteous in life and became a god after death. I want to go up the mountain to pay my respects so that I can enlighten my mind. . But you can take the prisoner for me and wait for me outside the customs."
Fan Hu heard the words and happily agreed, and immediately led the prisoner on his way.
Qin Qiong came step by step to the Wu Xiangguo Temple and bowed several times to the sage. While playing, he felt very sleepy and took a nap on the worship board.
I don’t know how long I slept.
Qin Qiong suddenly heard a thunder-like sound in his ears: "If Qin Qiong doesn't help me yet, when will we wait?"
shouted by this.
Qin Qiong was shocked.
He immediately opened his eyes, and it turned out to be Nan Ke Yimeng.
but.
The yellow gelding tied at the door whinnied and struggled up and down, as if extremely excited and impatient.
then.
Qin Qiong flew on horseback.
The horse didn't wait for Qin Qiong to control it. It immediately spread its four hooves and ran like flying, rushing down the hill in an instant.
Just reached halfway up the mountain.
Sure enough, there was a cry of death coming from the bottom of the mountain.
Qin Qiong reined in his horse and looked closely, but there were countless strong men surrounding a group of Sui soldiers, fighting there.
Saw this situation.
Although Qin Qiong didn't know what the reason was, as a horse speedster, he naturally had to solve problems.
then.
He pressed Fan Yang's felt hat, tightened the straps, held up the gold mace, clamped the horse, and used the mountain to rush down, shouting loudly: "Hey! Don't be brave, the thieves are coming!"
This shout.
It's like spring thunder bursting from the gap between the teeth, and thunderbolt jumping on the tip of the tongue.
Many strong men were startled and turned around to look. They saw that it was just one person, so they took it to heart.
Not long after.
Qin Qiong came to the front.
Only then did three or five people come to resist with knives, but Qin Qiong dropped his mace and beat more than a dozen of the gangsters to death with a series of playful blows.
When the other strongmen saw this, they were so frightened that they ran away in all directions.
Qin Qiong rode forward, caught one of them, and asked sternly: "Where are you waiting for a thief who dares to commit robbery on the ground of the imperial capital?"
The man's eyes flickered and he replied: "Bold! I am the King of Jin..."
This sentence mentions the word "King of Jin".
Qin Qiong broke out in a cold sweat.
The golden mace in his hand couldn't help but hang down. The man took advantage of this opportunity and immediately ran away, escaping without a trace in an instant.
Watching the man's back as he walked away.
Qin Qiong secretly thought to himself: "How can a little pony like me get involved in such secret matters that involve King Jin? If we delay any longer, there will be disaster."
Subsequently.
He pushed Fan Yang's felt hat forward, covered his face, let go of his mount, and headed towards Daxing City.
but.
Right now.
The Sui army official who was rescued by Qin Qiong took a few steps to catch up and said: "Strong man, please stop and accept my courtesy from Li Yuan!"
I heard names like Li Yuan again.
Qin Qiong secretly complained and walked faster.
Seeing that he could not catch up with Qin Qiong, Li Yuan could only shout loudly: "Strong man, walk slowly! Walk slowly! Please leave your name!"
Qin Qiong moved forward and turned back. Seeing that Li Yuan was still chasing after him, Qin Qiong had to shout: "Master Li, don't rush. The villain's surname is Qin Qiong."
As he spoke, he shook his hand twice, clamped the horse, and flew away.
…
Speaking of which.
Qin Qiong paused, then continued: "I think that day I only said the word Qin Qiong, and waved my hand to tell Mr. Tang not to chase me. Maybe Mr. Tang heard the word "Qiong" at that time and saw me extending my hand. I misunderstood the five characters, so I wrote them here by mistake."
After listening to Qin Qiong's words.
Even though Wang Ke was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
But at this moment.
Outside the Baode Temple, there was suddenly a burst of chaotic footsteps.
From a distance, I heard someone shouting: "Where is my benefactor? Where is my benefactor, the Li family in Taiyuan?"
As he spoke, the voice and chaotic footsteps got closer and closer to the Baode Temple.
Not long after.
Outside the Baode Temple, two figures turned around, one tall and one short, two handsome young men.
The tall one is a young man in red robe.
The short one is actually a young man in purple.
And these two people happened to have a relationship with Wang Ke.
"My benefactor! The Marquis of Dingbei is here too? Chai Shao (Li Shimin) has seen my benefactor and met the Marquis!"
Entering the ancestral hall.
The two of them also saw Wang Ke, and the expressions on their faces were slightly startled.
Immediately.
The two of them walked a few steps together, bowed to Qin Qiong and Wang Ke, and said.
