The Black Armor warriors escorted groups of prisoners from the houses. These prisoners were in groups of ten. There were as many as six groups of prisoners escorted out of the three houses. Their hands and feet were connected together with iron shackles and chains. These iron chains were very large. It is so short that the prisoners can only move with the same hands and feet. Looking at the clothes of these people, they were dirty and dirty, but they could vaguely be seen as white robes. Although they had been imprisoned for a long time, a short layer of stubble had grown on their foreheads, but it could still be seen that they were all bald originally.
It can be seen from the way these people dress that they are indeed Manichaeans.
Xiao Dayou looked at Lu Yuxuan confusedly and said, "Lu Lang, what's going on? These people seem to be really members of the demon sect."
Lu Yuxuan sneered and said: "Luo Xishi, you hid Brother Xie somewhere else, but you used these thieves to accuse us of having an affair with the devil's sect. It's really a good plan."
Luo Xishi also responded with a sneer: "You don't know that demon sect thieves are imprisoned here, so how can you explain that your young master is with the demon sect elders?" At this moment, he already knew that Jiang Shuo was not a descendant of the Wei family, but Jianghu. The young leader of the League and the Cao Gang pointed his hand at Rui Xi who was beside Jiang Shuo and said, "Rui Xi, do you dare to say that you didn't join the Zhuanshi Yamen just to save these demon cult members of yours?"
Ruixi forcefully pulled off his hair and beard. It turned out that the white hair and beard on his head and face were all fake. At this moment, his true face was revealed. His face was only in his early thirties, with sharp features and he looked very heroic. He had a bald head and no hair. , with a red flame flying pattern tattooed on his forehead, he is indeed a Manichean.
Ruixi put his left hand down, and made a gesture imitating burning flames with his right hand, saying: "I, Ruixi, are indeed Manichaeans, one of the 360 silent sages of the religion." Then he turned to Jiang Shuo. He said: "I came to save my godbrother today. I didn't want to meet Young Master Jiang by chance, but I didn't mean to hide my identity."
Hun Weiming and Nan Jiyun looked at each other, Hun Weiming said: "Nan Ba, this guy is really an elder of the Demon Sect, what should we do?"
Nan Jiyun said: "I didn't expect that all the coincidences happened today. We came to save people, and he also came to save people."
Luo Xishi snorted coldly and said, "You were fighting side by side just now, but now you have turned your back on me. The Jianghu Alliance is indeed a hero."
Hun Weiming pointed his two-fingered halberd and said, "Hey... Luo Xixi, are you a mad dog? You open your mouth and bark."
Ruixi said: "Hey, one person is responsible for the work, Young Master Jiang, it seems that you have been deceived, the person you want to save is not here, why not just go, I will meet Luo Xishi, no need for you to take action."
Everyone present in the Jianghu Alliance and the Cao Gang thought that the Demon Cult was the public enemy of the martial arts. They had had many disagreements with the young master before, and now that Rui Xi wanted to distance themselves from it, it would be better to leave here and look for Xie Baotou and the Cao Gang again. The whereabouts of the brothers were unknown, and they were all waiting for Jiang Shuo's order to evacuate. .br>
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuo said, "I see that Brother Ruixi is acting aboveboard. He was fighting alongside us just now. How can we just let him go now just because he is a member of the Demon Cult?"
Hun Wei said clearly: "Young Master, this... person from the Demon Cult is used to cheating. He may have wanted to take advantage of us just now, so he pretended to be such a generous husband."
Before Jiang Shuo could refute, he suddenly heard a loud sound of landslide and ground cracking from the north, followed by the sound of gongs and clappers. Only then did everyone realize that Luo Xishi had hidden so many soldiers in the city.
A soldier rushed in in a panic, crossed his hands and said to Luo Xixi: "Luo Yushi, big... something bad has happened... The demon sect has destroyed the north gate, and the rebels have already rushed towards the Yamen."
Luo Xishi shook his head and looked at Ruixi. Ruixi smiled and said, "Censor Luo doesn't really think that Ruixi came alone, right? In fact, our Manichaean brothers entered the city in disguise. I'm here to hold you back. The other brothers who entered the city destroyed the city walls and let my followers in."
Luo Xishi said angrily: "How brave you are, you are rebelling!"
Ruixi said: "It's not that we want to rebel. It's just that the court doesn't give us poor believers a way to survive, so we have no choice but to rebel."
Luo Xishi said: "First kill these evil witches and thieves for me, and then follow me to fight against the rebels!"
The soldiers waved their swords and guns and were about to attack. Ruixi suddenly took out a pottery xun and blew it a few times. Hearing rustling sounds coming from the rooms on three sides, countless men in white robes rushed towards him. Come out, these people have
The white robes were all dirty, baggy and unfitting. The clothes exposed under the robes were of various shapes and colors, but without exception they were all shabby. In addition to knives, swords and other weapons, the weapons in their hands were more The most important are farm tools such as hoes, sickles, and axes.
Jiang Shuo wondered: "Are there so many people hiding in the house?"
Hun Wei said clearly: "Hey... there must be some digging troops in the demon sect. They have already dug a hole under the house here. The demon sect members were hiding underground until they suddenly came out and attacked together."
Lu Yuxuan said: "It seems that the diggers who destroyed the north gate before were the ones who dug down the city gate, so there was such a loud noise. Otherwise, the devil's sect's beggar-like rebels would not be able to break through no matter how many times they came." City gate."
The Xuanjia Army is not the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but Li Linfu's private soldiers. Although they are well-equipped, they are not many in number. On the other hand, the followers of the Demon Sect, although they are dressed in tatters and have miscellaneous weapons, are large in number, and they are constantly coming from three gushes around the room.
When the Xuanjia Army saw the Demon Cult followers pouring into the courtyard, they immediately changed their formations and formed several circular formations on the spot to defend themselves. The Demon Cult disciples rolled up the turbid white-capped river and instantly enveloped them.
Hun Weiming and Nan Jiyun said to Jiang Shuo, "Young Master, leave quickly."
The three of them jumped onto the roof together. At this moment, the Jianghu League and the Cao Gang were standing on the wall and roof, while the Manichaeans and the Xuanjia Army were mixed together in the courtyard. Although the three parties were eyeing each other, they were afraid of each other and no one took action.
Ruixi said: "Young Master Jiang, this matter has nothing to do with you. Everyone from Jianghu Alliance and Cao Gang please leave as soon as possible. Our teaching will never stop you."
Luo Xishi sneered and said: "Ruixi, if you still want to ask others to avoid you, think about yourself first. Don't think that you can win with more. Bianzhou soldiers will be here soon. I will kill as many of you flower soldiers as you can." How many."
Jiang Shuo wondered: "Why are these people from the Demon Cult so different from those I saw in the North?"
Hun Weiming said to Jiang Shuo: "Oh, young master, now is not the time to dwell on these things. We should not stay in this place of right and wrong for long. Let's leave quickly."
Jiang Shuo said: "But if we leave now, no matter who wins or loses in a war, there will inevitably be heavy casualties..."
Xiao Dayou said: "Li Linfu's private soldiers and demon sect thieves are not good people, so what's wrong with letting them fight like dogs? Young Master, just leave them alone."
Lu Yuxuan also advised: "Young Master, we have many brothers who have entered the city. Once a war breaks out in the city, it is inevitable that we will all be destroyed. There will also be casualties among our brothers. It is better to leave quickly."
Xiao Dayou said: "I'm afraid it's too late to leave now. When I hear the shouts of killing outside, I'm afraid the Bianzhou soldiers have already arrived."
Jiang Shuo shouted to Ruixi, "Elder Ruixi, I only want to ask you one question. Are you a subordinate of the demon sect Apo Damucha?"
Ruixi laughed loudly and said: "Although we both belong to the demonic sect, Damuchan is obsessed with clinging to thieves and has long since ignored the life and death of the poor A Luohuan. He has expelled me from the religious sect, and I don't recognize him. It’s Mu Cha.”
Jiang Shuo said: "Since you have been kicked out of the sect by the leader, how can you call yourself an elder?"
Ruixi said: "Young friend Jiang, you don't know. Da Mu Cha is not the intention of the leader. The leader of our religion is the Ming Zun, a god, not an ordinary person. Mu Cha means to spread the Dharma. There are twelve Mu Cha in the world, all over the Central Plains. There is only one Mu Chai named Apo, and under him there is a Dharma holder named Fuduo Dan, a total of seventy-two, including two in the Central Plains."
Jiang Shuo nodded and said, "These two people must be the two envoys on the left and right, Cui Qianyou and Tian Qianzhen."
Ruixi said: "It turns out that little friend Jiang has already met Cui and Tian. Tian Qian is really a kind man, but Cui Qianyou is a stern-looking villain." He added, "There are three hundred and sixty guardians next. Elder Mo Xide, there are four people in the Central Plains, and Rui Xi is among them."
Xiao Dayou said anxiously: "After going around for a long time, aren't you the subordinate of Abo Na's thief? Young Master, we don't have time to talk nonsense with this man, let's leave quickly."
Ruixi shook his head and said, "I have just said that Mu Cha, Fu Duo Dan, and Mo Xi De mean to spread the Dharma, uphold the Dharma, and protect the Dharma. Although they have high or low status, they are not the relationship of master and servant. All those who spread the Dharma , upholding the Dharma, and protecting the Dharma are all determined by the Mucha Conference of the Persian Manichaean General Forum. Apo has stayed in the Central Plains for a long time, and he actually teaches
The Lord is self-proclaimed, and does not go through the Persian main altar. He uses his own likes and dislikes to abolish and abolish the Dharma and Dharma protectors at will. He excommunicates me without going through the main altar. Naturally, I do not recognize him. "
Hun Wei said: "Young Master, let's leave quickly. The internal strife in his demon sect has nothing to do with us."
Jiang Shuo ignored him and continued to ask Ruixi: "What about these poor people..."
Ruixi smiled calmly and said: "The world says that Manichaeism "eats vegetables and causes demons." In fact, even if poor people don't believe in religion, how can they eat meat? We follow Ming Zun's will, eat vegetables, do good deeds, and help each other in need, but it is really ridiculous to say that we are a demonic sect! Even among the boatmen in your Cao gang, there are many Manichaeans. Are they all villains too? "
Xiao Dayou said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!"
Jiang Shuo turned around and saw Xiao Dayou blushing, but his eyes wandered away, while Lu Yuxuan simply remained silent. I'm afraid Ruixi's words were probably true. The Cao Gang was not one sect. Jiang Shuo had already known that there were many gangs. Most of them are also Buddhist or Taoist believers, so it is not surprising that there are Manichaeans in Caobang. "
Jiang Shuo said: "Elder Ruixi, are you here to save people or kill people?"
Ruixi said: "Of course I want to save people, but if I don't kill people, how can I gain someone?"
Jiang Shuo said: "I have a way to save people without killing people, but you have to promise me to evacuate Junyi City immediately and not to kill again."
Ruixi said: "Mingzun is kind, so naturally we don't want to kill, but can Luo Xishi let us go?"
Jiang Shuo said: "You just answer whether I am willing or not. As for ending the war, I have my own way."
