"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

The main entrance of Wang Daying is filled with the afterglow of the setting sun.

Xin Sixuan, Qu Baotian and other generals who were trapped in the camp, as well as the two Zhu family brothers, faced the three-column green-cloaked carriage and saluted respectfully.

"No need to send it again."

In the carriage with three green hoods, Xu Yi waved slightly to everyone through the window.

After he finished speaking, the car curtain slowly lowered and the wheels turned gently.

The three-column green-covered carriage slowly left Wang's Camp, guarded by more than a hundred cavalry, just as it had arrived.

"Colonel Xin, Colonel Qu, we and I will take our leave."

After the carriage with three green hoods slowly disappeared from everyone's sight, Zhu Zongting turned around and said goodbye.

After a brief greeting.

The Zhu family's motorcade slowly embarked on its return journey.

After a while.

Approaching the official road of Juyang City.

Zhu Zongting suddenly turned around and looked at Zhu Zongnian beside him, slowly driving his gun and saying: "Zongnian, you go back to the workshop with the motorcade first, and I'll go look for the prince."

Zhu Zongnian's face paused slightly when he heard this.

Then he nodded understandingly and said, "Okay."

The words are over.

Zhu Zongting suddenly clamped the horse's belly and ran quickly towards Juyang City.

...

...

In the distance, there are three carriages with green hoods.

Xu Yi slightly closed his eyes and leaned on the soft couch.

His fingers tapped on the small wooden table next to him.

At the same time, his mind was constantly thinking about 'Fire suppression, together.

For example, Zhu Zongnian made ten-shot crossbows and twenty-shot crossbows.

To a certain extent, these two repeating crossbows can be regarded as important military weapons.

But for Xu Yi, this military weapon had inevitable flaws.

The flaw is the cost!

There is no need to calculate the value of the crossbow body of a ten-shot crossbow or a twenty-shot crossbow.

If Xu Yi wanted to, he could spend enough money to order Zhu Zongnian to make three to five thousand in an instant.

What really made Xu Yi feel financially strapped was never the Liannunu body, but the loss of Wuyu.

It should be noted that if you want to ensure the power of the ten-shot crossbow and the twenty-shot repeating crossbow, you can only use the matching Wuyu Lost.

However, the featherless body is made of iron and is eight inches long!

The value of the eight-inch iron required for Wu Yu's loss alone is not a small amount!

Not to mention whether the Wuyu Lost can be recovered again after being fired on the battlefield, whether the Wuyu Lost is bent after being retrieved, and whether it can continue to be used.

In addition, the maintenance costs required for the loss of 50,000 feathers in one year are also astronomical.

Not to mention that Xu Yi only had the land of two counties and the tax revenue of ten thousand households.

Even Emperor Zhengde, who had the whole world in his hands, could not afford to equip his soldiers with too many repeating crossbows!

That's why.

After Xu Yifang saw the power of the Liannu with his own eyes, he was eager to find a replacement for him.

Or create a high-quality and low-cost military weapon that can be used for fire suppression.

I don’t know the geometry of time in my meditation.

I do not know how long it has been.

Xu Yi, who had his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened his eyes.

A flash of joy flashed across his eyes.

"This thing can be of great use! It should be Wang Daying's trump card!"

Xu Yi slowly sat up straight and murmured in a low voice with a slight smile on his lips.

The words are over.

Xu Yi, who was all worried, reached out and picked up the neatly arranged teapot on the small wooden table. ….

After slowly pouring a cup of warm tea, Xu Yi gently opened the closed car curtain.

As the car curtain was slowly opened by him.

The sunset outside the window slowly came into view.

"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk."

Xu Yi took a sip of fragrant tea and murmured in a relaxed voice.

murmured to himself.

Just as Xu Yi was enjoying the beautiful sunset.

A horse suddenly drove up from behind the three-horse carriage with green hood.

"Sixth Master." Yang Xianan steered the horse to the window of the three-yuan green-covered carriage. He cupped his fists and saluted, saying, "Zhu Zongting is asking for a meeting from behind, saying he has something important to report."

'Something important? , Xu Yi murmured in a low voice when he heard the words, and then slowly said: "Invite him to come here."

"Follow the order." Yang Xian'an clasped his fists and saluted again, then turned his horse's head and ran quickly toward the back of the convoy.

After Yang Xianan leaves.

Xu Yi turned his head slightly and looked at Gu Dengyun, who was always guarding the carriage.

After waving his hands slightly, he ordered: "Repair in place."

"Obey the order!" Gu Dengyun clasped his fists in salute, then quickly ran forward to deliver the order.

After just over a hundred breaths.

Three carriages with green hoods and more than a hundred cavalrymen parked neatly beside the official road.

at the same time.

Zhu Zongting, riding a horse, followed Yang Xianan and slowly arrived three steps away from the three-yuan green-covered carriage.

After handing over the horse to the soldiers on the side.

Zhu Zongting walked quickly towards the three-column green-covered carriage three steps away.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Zongting, pays homage to the prince."

Zhu Zongting stood outside the carriage carriage with three green awnings and bowed his hands in salute.

"No courtesy." Xu Yi nodded slightly and then motioned Zhu Zongting to enter the carriage.

After Zhu Zongting took his seat in the carriage.

Xu Yi picked up the teapot on the small wooden table and slowly poured two cups of fragrant tea into it.

After slowly pushing one of the cups to Zhu Zongting, he asked: "Is the important thing Zongting said about auspiciousness?"

Zhu Zongting's face paused slightly when he heard this.

Although he was full of surprise, he still bowed his hands and said, "It is auspicious to return to the prince."

Xu Yi nodded noncommittally upon hearing this, and then asked: "How exaggerated is the auspicious thing Zongting heard about?"

The reason why he could accurately tell what Zhu Zongting was here for.

Not because of his ability to read minds.

But he is good at finding problems in details.

Today when he was at Na Wang's camp, whenever there were fewer people around Xu Yi, Zhu Zongting would always subconsciously make small gestures of hesitating to speak.

Moreover, after Xu Yi left Wang Daying, Zhu Zongting came alone to chase Xu Yi's frame.

All these actions prove that what Zhu Zongting said had a great impact on Xu Yi.

If you think about the recent major events and Zhu Zongting's recent actions, it is not difficult to guess the truth of the matter.

Zhu Zongting suppressed the surprise in his heart and quickly bowed his hands and said, "Back to your lord, someone said that at chenshi today, a white dragon was seen hovering over Prince Yan's Mansion for a long time in the fog."

"Some people say that they saw phoenixes dancing in the sky above Prince Yan's Mansion in the heavy fog."

"Some people say that they saw an immortal falling into the palace of Prince Yan in the heavy fog."

"Some people even said that they saw unicorns playing in the sky above the Yan Palace in the heavy fog."

“Nowadays, you can say anything, and the more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes.”….

Zhu Zongting finished speaking.

Xu Yi's lips couldn't help but reveal an unexplainable smile.

'White dragon, phoenix, unicorn, immortal? , Xu Yi couldn't help but sneered in his heart: "It's really outrageous." ,

So many outrageous auspicious signs appeared in just one morning, and they have spread outside Juyang City.

If there was no one behind this, Xu Yi would not believe it even to death.

If the person behind it is allowed to continue to add fuel to the flames, God knows how great the final impact of this incident will be.

Xu Yi composed himself, and then slowly said: "There is indeed auspiciousness in the sky above the Chenshi Palace today."

"Ah?!" Zhu Zongting immediately screamed after hearing this.

In his opinion, the so-called auspiciousness is just a rumor created by someone to frame Xu Yi.

But he never expected that Xu Yi would personally admit the auspicious appearance in the sky above Prince Yan's Mansion.

Seeing Zhu Zongting's face showing surprise.

Xu Yi smiled slightly, and then slowly spoke again: "There are indeed auspicious phenomena in the sky above the palace, but they are not like the white dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, immortals and other visions rumored by the people."

"Rather." Xu Yi paused for a moment, then continued: "Buddha's light."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zongting's expression changed again. After forcibly calming down, he asked in disbelief: "Buddha's light?"

"It's the Buddha's light." Xu Yi nodded slightly and confirmed.

The words are over.

Xu Yi paused for a moment, then slowly spoke again: "It's not just a vision coming from the sky."

"Shocked?" Zhu Zongtingfang's calm mind became confused again as Xu Yi finished speaking.

Zhu Zongting asked questions without waiting for him to open his mouth.

Xu Yi slowly spoke with a mysterious face: "Before the vision of Buddha's light descending from the sky today, I had a dream."

"In the dream, there was a figure bathed in soft golden light, floating in the air and crossing his legs next to the lonely bed."

"The figure in the dream, whose whole body was bathed in soft golden light, said something to Gu Yi, and then handed over to Gu Yi the object wrapped in soft golden light."

"Then it disappeared completely. As soon as it disappeared, I woke up from my sleep."

"As soon as Fang woke up with a start, he found that there was something in his hand."

"Just when I looked at the object in my hand, a golden light flew out from the object."

"Soon after, a majestic Buddha's light appeared in the sky above the palace and refused to dissipate for a long time."

After finishing speaking, Xu Yi slowly picked up the tea on the small wooden table.

While drinking tea, the corner of his eye flashed past Zhu Zongting, who had a dull face.

I do not know how long it has been.

Zhu Zongting trembled all over and gradually came back to his senses.

He suppressed the trembling in his heart, quickly raised his hands and asked: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, what did the figure bathed in golden light say to Your Majesty?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly in his heart, and then pretended to be mysterious again: "The figure bathed in golden light claimed that his name is Fa Hai, and he is the golden Arhat under the Buddha's throne."

"He came from the west and originally wanted to go to the capital to promote Mahayana Buddhism."

"But on the way, I felt the pity of the believers, so I had to leave first."

"He said that before he left, he would give the Buddha's bone relics to me, so that I could present them to the emperor."…

"I hope that today we can find a remote place in the capital and build a seven-story pagoda to worship the Buddha's bone relics."

"If the opportunity comes again in the future, he will definitely ascend to the pagoda and promote Mahayana Buddhism in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

The words are over.

Xu Yi paused for a moment, then slowly added: "I vaguely remember that Fahai Arhat had decided a name for the pagoda before he left."

"Well..." Xu Yi frowned slightly, and after pondering for a few breaths, he slowly said, "If I remember correctly, the name given by Fahai Arhat is Leifeng Pagoda."

Xu Yi finished his words.

Zhu Zongting could no longer suppress the trembling in his heart, and he couldn't help but fall towards the side of the carriage.

People in this era are particularly sensitive to ghosts and gods.

What's more, these astonishing words came from a vassal king like Xu Yi.

And there is even the Buddha’s bone relic as proof!

This undoubtedly made Zhu Zongting more and more convinced.

I do not know how long it has been.

Zhu Zongting finally calmed down.

As soon as Fang calmed down, Zhu Zongting couldn't wait to ask in a low voice: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what... does that Buddha bone relic look like?"

Hearing this, Xu Yi slowly answered: "The appearance is not much different from the relics that ordinary eminent monks turn into after passing away."

"It's just a little bigger in appearance."

Xu Yi paused for a moment, then added: "Gu Guan

The Buddha's bone relic is as big as a baby's fist. "

As soon as this statement came out.

Zhu Zongting's expression suddenly changed again.

It is not that there are no relics of eminent monks in the Central Plains who have achieved enlightenment after passing away.

However, according to Zhu Zongting's knowledge, the relics transformed by eminent monks after they passed away are generally only the size of rice grains.

Since Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains, only one relic the size of a pinky fingernail has been recorded.

However, Xu Yi said that the relic given by Fahai Arhat was actually the size of a baby's fist.

"It's really the Arhat who appears." Zhu Zongting forced himself to calm down, then clasped his hands together and said piously.

Xu Yi smiled slightly when he saw this.

As for the relic the size of a baby's fist in his mouth, although he does not have it now, it will appear in his hand within a day or two.

Not to mention relics the size of a baby's fist, even relics the size of an adult's head, Xu Yi can get them if he wants to.

Xu Yi calmed down for a moment.

He slowly spoke again and said: "The Fa Hai Arhat once told Gu Yan that after the golden light dissipated, he only needed to burn incense and worship for three days before placing it in a rosewood box and then delivering it to the capital."

"I dare not disobey what Fahai Arhat told me, but the Buddha's bone relics will eventually fall into our Yan land."

"How could you not ask me, the people of Yan, to send the Buddha's bones and relics as gifts?"

The words are over.

Xu Yi paused for a moment, and then slowly said: "Zongting, starting from tomorrow, the iron workshop will stop working for three days. Three days later, all the craftsmen in the iron workshop will go to the south gate of Juyang City to salute and send the Buddha's bones and relics. .”

"In addition, within these three days, organize as many people as possible to come and present Buddha bone relics."

"If you can appreciate Fa Hai and Luo Hai, you will definitely protect the people of Yan Land more than others."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zongting's face instantly showed excitement.

"Your Majesty, obey the order!" Zhu Zongting saluted with excitement on his face.

Xu Yi nodded slightly, then gently waved his hand and said: "Go, it's better to go sooner rather than later."

"Yes! I will do it immediately!" Zhu Zongting bowed his hands again and saluted, and then slowly exited the three-column green-covered carriage.

After Zhu Zongting left quickly on his horse.

The three-column green-covered carriage and the more than a hundred cavalrymen set off slowly again.

Inside the carriage with three green hoods.

Xu Yi sat upright on the sofa, gently opened the car curtain, and looked through the car window at the beautiful sunset in the distance.

In his opinion, the best solution to the auspicious issue is to defeat magic with magic! ,

In addition, other solutions have more or less known or unknown hidden dangers.

After all, he will never be able to popularize so-called science to countless people in the world on his own. ,

Using Buddha bone relics to deal with this crisis not only carries no risk at all, but also has countless benefits.

After all, no one except Xu Yi knows whether the so-called Dharma Sea Arhat and the so-called Mahayana Buddhism are true or false.

When necessary, Xu Yi can completely let the so-called 'Fahai Arhat' reappear in Prince Yan's Mansion. .
