Murong Nobunaga narrowed his eyes, wondering whether he should order his subordinate Zhao Yilang to kill this monk. The appearance of this guy from India in Xiangji Temple was like a stabbing.
For a good man, this kind of person who has caused danger to Zhang Yan's safety should not exist in the world.
The reason why he was a little hesitant was because this Fan monk had a very high reputation in the old Khitan land. After all, in the past, he mainly taught Dharma in Khitan and was a guest of the Khitan nobles.
Master Cixian saw the murderous intent in Murong Nobunaga's eyes. He was not afraid at all. Instead, he was even more happy. He clasped his hands together.
"Namo Sakyamuni Buddha, Murong Tanyue is indeed a disciple of the Buddha, and he actually had the intention to kill the old monk."
Even though Murong was well-informed, he was stunned by Master Cixian's words, and then he stood up and dismounted in a state of confusion.
The Tuyuhun people always believed in Buddhism, and Murong Nobunaga also became interested in the old monk in front of him, because this sentence always sounded like he was willing to take refuge.
"Why did Master Cixian say that?"
Master Cixian had a smile on his face, and the snowflakes falling on his long eyebrows fell down with his smile.
"It has been fifteen years since the poor monk came to China from Tianzhu. He has always followed my Buddhist teachings, so no matter where he goes, he is treated with courtesy by believers.
The old monk traveled all over the north and south of the river, and only when he met the Supreme Dharma King did he feel the endless killing intent in him, and today he felt it in Murong Tanyue again.
The old monk boasted that it still takes a lot of perseverance to kill a great virtuous man. "
The old monk was not completely bragging. On that day at Daxingshan Temple in Chang'an, he said in front of Murong Yanchao that he would betray him. Even someone like Murong Yanchao failed to decide to kill him right away.
Murong Nobunaga smiled noncommittally, "Master Cixian must be waiting for a certain family here on purpose, right? It's impossible to say this just to talk to a certain person."
"Of course not." Master Cixian nodded, not knowing what he meant or what he meant.
"The old monk is waiting for Murong Tan Yue here because he wants Tan Yue to help him tell the Supreme Dharma King that he wants to visit the Buddha's face again."
Murong Nobunaga narrowed his eyes, "Don't tell lies in front of the true Buddha. Not only does a certain family not want to help introduce the master, they also want to chop off the master's head with a knife."
"Hahaha!" Master Cixian no longer looked like an enlightened monk, and he laughed like an ordinary person. This was not in line with the behavior of a generation of eminent monks.
"The old monk knew that Murong Tanyue was unwilling, so he allowed the old monk to introduce the three people behind him."
Master Cixian pointed to the youngest strong man on the left and said: "This is the leader of the Helian tribe in Tuyuhun, Hedong, Helian Hailong!"
Murong Nobunaga's heart was moved. There were tens of thousands of Tuyuhun people from Hedong who were forcibly recruited under his command. Among the Tuyuhun people who originally roamed north and south of Yinshan Mountain, only Helian Hailong, the leader of the Helian tribe, was left, and he had not surrendered yet.
He now has three tribes of Tuyuhun from the Hehuang Valley and four thousand households from Shuofang and Yanxia.
If he can get Helian Hailong's surrender and Yinshan Tuyuhun basically belong to him, then he Murong Nobunaga will be the true complete form of Tuyuhun Khan.
"This person is an old acquaintance of Tan Yue." Master Cixian pointed at the tall and strong man in the middle and said. As soon as he finished speaking, the strong man took off the hood covering his head, and it was Murong Yanchao.
Murong Nobunaga's expression changed. Murong Yanchao was one of the sources of trouble in Tuyuhun, east of the river. He actually knew Murong Yanchao and had dated him in Tokyo in the past, but they were not very familiar with him.
Now that he had taken off his hood, Murong Nobunaga took a few more glances and found that it was indeed Murong Yanchao.
"Yan Kunlun, you are really courageous! I heard that Wang Jun and Li Ye rebelled in Xuzhou. Were you not involved?"
Murong Yanchao raised his hand and tilted his head with a complicated expression, "Sanlang-kun, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so energetic!"
Master Cixian smiled and said to Murong Nobunaga: "You know, Tan Yue, it was these two people who saved the life of my grandfather Yuan Zhonggong."
Of course Murong Nobunaga knew that Cao Yuanzhong was almost killed, but he was not very clear on how to escape. Liaodong was still a bit far away from the Central Plains, but he thought that Master Cixian would not lie, so he clasped his fists and bent over his knees.
"In this case, a certain family would like to thank you two for your rescue."
Helian Hailong and Murong Yanchao did not expect that Murong Nobunaga, as the king of Liaoyang and a famous commander in the world, would still be like this, so they felt a little surprised and quickly returned the gift.
After the three people saluted, Master Cixian pointed to the strong man with a depressed expression on the right and said: "Tan Yue, this man is Gao Song Gao Mouhan, whom you have been tracking for several months but have found nothing."
】
This was when Murong Nobunaga was truly shocked. Gao Song had been a famous Khitan general that Zhou wanted to capture since he had garrisoned in Zhongli City in the Yellow River section of Luoyang.
Murong Nobunaga recently dug three feet into the ground in Liaodong just to catch him. Unexpectedly, he was in Beiping Mansion, next to Master Cixian.
But immediately, Murong Nobunaga understood in his heart that Master Cixian had a great reputation in the old Khitan land, and countless disciples and grandchildren who had received his favor worshiped him as a living Buddha. Takamatsu could only rely on the cover of Master Cixian. Can escape his pursuit.
Takamatsu was very nervous at the moment, because he was the only one who had no friendship with Murong Nobunaga, but had many enemies. Therefore, he grabbed the opportunity when Murong Nobunaga was about to capture him and raised his hand.
"I heard that the king intends to conquer Goryeo in the south. I have a certain talent who has been traveling in Goryeo for many years. He has two hundred men under his command, many of whom are brave men who fled north from Goryeo. Now I have come to join you at a desperate situation. I ask you to be patient and let bygones be bygones."
Murong Nobunaga's face was solemn. He looked at Gao Song and asked, "Who told you that a certain family wanted to conquer Korea south?"
"Tan Yue, this man is the son-in-law of Wang Jian, the former king of Goryeo. There are many members of the Gao clan near Hengzhou (Ji'an City, Jilin Province). What the king has done can be hidden from the Goryeo people in the south, but he cannot be hidden from this. Human.”
Master Cixian said with a smile, Li Hanqiong, under Murong Nobunaga, has caused quite a stir in Hengzhou recently.
Gao Song took the opportunity to salute Murong Nobunaga again, "Your Majesty, the Wang family in Korea is not a soft persimmon. As far as I know, Wang Jian and his son, including those in Korea, have aspirations to go north. There are quite a lot of Korean spies inside and outside Hengzhou."
Murong Nobunaga stared at Gao Song closely, "Then according to your judgment, the kings and ministers of Goryeo should already know about Hengzhou, right?"
A little self-satisfied smile appeared on Gao Song's face, "They don't know, because the servant covered it up for the king.
The servants are from the Bohai Gao family, and there are still 20,000 tribesmen near Hengzhou. As long as we are willing, not a single Korean spy can reach the Yalu River. "
"Hahaha!" Murong Nobunaga looked at Gao Song and laughed. The damn Bohai Gao family must be a Mohe Rong slave from the Bohai Kingdom who clings to the Han surnamed Gao family.
Moreover, the Bohai Gao family was not a high-ranking family in the Han and Jin Dynasties, but a famous family established through the continuous attachment of Gao Huan of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao Jun of the Sui Dynasty and others.
However, Murong Nobunaga immediately realized Takamatsu's true intention. This guy was telling him that he wanted to be a Han Chinese and was willing to serve him or the emperor.
Thinking of this, Murong Nobunaga looked at Gao Song carefully and said slowly: "Do you really want to be a Han?"
Notice! Murong Nobunaga used Han people instead of Tang children. There is a difference between the two.
Like Qibi Heli and Ashina Simo, you can say that he is a Tang child, but you cannot say that he is a Han. Even Murong Nobunaga is the same. He is a Tang child, but he cannot be completely said to be a Han. .
When Gao Song heard Murong Nobunaga's question, he slowly bent down, and then gave Murong Nobunaga a respectful salute on the snow.
"Think about it! I have never dreamed of it! Your Majesty, this servant is really from the Bohai Gao family. Please grant me permission, Your Majesty."
Why does Gao Song want to be a Han so much now? Of course it is for my own wealth and the prosperity of my family.
"The Gao family of Servant was originally a high-ranking sect in the Bohai Kingdom, but unfortunately was destroyed by the Khitan.
When he grew up, he served the Khitan for the fate of the Gao family and became the son-in-law of King Wang Jian of Goryeo. After many twists and turns, he finally came to nothing.
I have learned from the pain this year and found that the reason why I have accomplished nothing is that I have not met my master.
Today we can see the majestic figure of the saint, the king, his father and his son, swallowing up the mountains and rivers with great energy, just like the clouds are moving to see the sun.
The old servant is not old enough to serve the saint, but if he can serve under the king, this life will be enough! "
This is what Gao Song said from the bottom of his heart. Who is Gao Song? He is from the Bohai Sea. There are still 20,000 to 30,000 people living by the Yalu River. Why is he jumping left and right? Just to hug him.
At first, he was not willing to work under the Khitans. After all, the Bohai Kingdom was destroyed by the Khitans, so he ran to Goryeo to serve Wang Jian.
Wang Jian married his daughter to him, but compared with the Khitan, the plate of Goryeo was still a bit small, so he ran back to the Khitan and served under Yelu Abaoji and his son.
But as a result, when he went south to the Central Plains, he was beaten several times by Zhang Gao, which made Gao Song suddenly realize.
Sure enough, the thickest and strongest golden thigh in the world must be from the Central Plains Kingdom!
He really learned from the experience and deeply reflected on the reasons for his failures over the years, and in the end, he found a way out.
Since Zhou State in the Central Plains has the biggest thigh, why not hold Zhou State's thigh and follow to attack Goryeo?
He can't defeat the Khitan Taijun, and the Celestial Army of the Zhou Kingdom is no match for him. But go south, go to Wang's Goryeo territory and shout "Assiba" with a big mouth and slap those untouchables from Baekje and Silla. This is you can!
He is almost 40 years old. If he doesn't hug his thighs and find a place to enjoy the blessings, he may never know when he closes his eyes and people pass by. Isn't it unfair?
There are also 20,000 of his tribe members crowded into the mountains and forests south of Hengzhou. Their food and housing conditions are similar to those of stupid roe deer. If they are not taken to a good place, they will become savages.
Human emotions are interoperable. Takamatsu's emotions at this moment cannot be faked at all. Murong Nobunaga can completely feel them.
He looked at Gao Song who was prostrate on the ground, as well as Murong Yanchao and Helian Hailong who were looking at him with hope.
These three people are all generals of bears and tigers who can be defeated by thousands of people! Gao Song was also very talented, and he was one of the best generals in Khitan at that time.
Helian Hailong still has more than 3,000 tribesmen, and Gao Song can recruit 20,000 to 30,000 Bohai survivors, all of which Murong Nobunaga needs.
And there is Master Cixian. If he can help him, the work of stabilizing the Khitan people will be more effective with half the effort.
"Mage, the three of them each have their own needs. Why do you want them?"
The only thing that is uncertain now is Master Cixian. Why did he take the risk to intervene in this matter? It seems that he should go up the pole to send resources to Murong Nobunaga. It is indeed a bit confusing.
Master Cixian smiled bitterly, and the image of the enlightened monk completely disappeared. He pointed at his heart and said: "Old monk, you are also possessed by an inner demon!
In the past, when Yanshou returned to Hangzhou, a certain person said that he should be in trouble due to the surge of water. It was ridiculous that the poor monk himself became possessed by a demon after entering meditation in Daxingshan Temple for ten days.
The poor monk just wanted to meet the Supreme Dharma King and ask him whether Dongsheng Shenzhou was real or fake. Did the Buddha really leave treasures on the other side to alleviate the world's hunger? Does Cangming Water really exist? "
As Master Cixian spoke, his eyes became wild and distracted, and his skinny body seemed to be crumbling in the wind and snow.
