As a Taoist, Changsheng didn't know much about Buddhist relics, but Song Ji said that this thing was magical, which also aroused his curiosity. If this thing really helps Buddhist disciples practice, it can He tried to find it and gave it to Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming.
It was nearly the second watch when we returned to the Yushitai. As soon as we dismounted, Datou and others walked out of the concierge.
Seeing all four people waiting at the door, Changsheng knew something must have happened.
As expected, before he could ask any questions, Datou came forward, led the horse and said, "Sir, we have captured an assassin."
"Assassin? Who are you stabbing?" Changsheng asked casually.
"Her target is you," Datou said. "I went to the stable to load materials during the watch and found a night walker climbing over the wall from the backyard. I called on everyone to chase him, stopped him and captured him, but this time The man remained silent and said nothing, so we carefully checked the backyard and your room, only to find that the teapot in your room and the manger in the stable were poisoned by it."
"Oh? How old is this woman?" Chang Sheng took out the split blood spirit beads from his waist bag and handed them to the four of them respectively, "Here is a little gadget for you."
Blood Spirit Pearls are extremely rare in Middle-earth, and several people did not recognize what they were, but they all knew that what Changsheng gave could not be ordinary things, so they thanked them and took them, inspecting them.
"About the same size as Guanyin." Datou said.
Because there is a red mole in the middle of Yu Yi's forehead, which is located at the same position as the white hair between the eyebrows in the statue of Guanyin, he got the nickname Guanyin. However, this nickname was not given by Da Tou. Yu Yi's fellow disciples and the policemen of Dali Temple They all shouted that.
"What kind of cultivation?" Changsheng stepped forward.
Several people turned around to follow, but the big head still answered, "Red aura."
"What kind of poison was administered?" Changsheng asked again.
"Poisonous arsenic." Big Head said.
"Where are you this fool? I can't even smell arsenic?" Chang Sheng said with a smile. Although arsenic is highly poisonous, it is not colorless and odorless like the legend. Instead, it has a spicy smell. The higher the temperature, the spicy smell becomes stronger. The heavier.
"Sir, this woman is not a fool. Not only does she want to poison you, she also poisons the manger and harms the livestock. She has a terrible intention." Datou said.
Changsheng did not go to the backyard, but went straight east to the Yushitai Prison. However, while walking, he did not mention the assassin again, but turned to look at Shi Xuanming, "Master, why didn't you go out to listen to Qianggener tonight? ?”
Shi Xuanming was looking at the rosary beads at this time. Hearing Changsheng's words, he didn't react for a moment. After being stunned, he realized that Datou had secretly told Changsheng what he had done recently. Changsheng's words were obviously teasing him. He didn't need to answer, he just rolled his eyes at Da Tou, who was leading the horse by the side.
"Real man, what do you think I'm doing?" Big Tou pretended not to understand.
Shi Xuanming had made a mistake in Anxiang Tower before. Although he had never broken the rules, he was embarrassed. True Man was the nickname he gave himself according to the requirements of Anxiang Tower. Da Tou's seemingly casual questions were actually a joke.
Shi Xuanming couldn't answer his words, so he could only tilt his head to the side and ignore him.
Seeing that Da Tou was holding Young Master Hei, Chang Sheng said casually, "You don't have to hold it, it is invulnerable to all poisons, let it go and let it go back."
"Oh," Da Tou let go of the reins, "We have already painted the manger, and we have also changed the teapot and water cups in your room."
Changsheng nodded.
The prison where people were imprisoned was some distance away from the Yasi lobby. While walking, Chang Sheng looked at Yang Kai again, "What's your reaction?"
Yang Kai knew that Chang Sheng was asking about entering the palace in the afternoon to deliver the memorial and present the sweat-blooded BMW. Since Chang Sheng asked in public, it meant that he did not want to avoid others, so he said, "Several ministers will enter the palace in the afternoon to deliver the memorial, and there is no chance to be alone." Talking, but I could tell he was happy.”
After Yang Kai finished speaking, he added, "I'm really happy, not pretending to be happy for me to see."
"It's really difficult for you to go to court every day. I know you don't like living in a temple. If you wait until the end of the year, we will be free." Changsheng said.
"It's okay," Yang Kai said, "In life, it's not a bad thing to have more experiences. You can't just do one thing in your life."
"Haha," Big Head Ring pointed at everyone and said with a smile, "Yang Kai, look at the rest of us. Apart from adults, you are the only one who is normal. Only you can do decent things."
Seeing that both Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming were looking at him, Datou said again, "Don't be dissatisfied. Otherwise, when you go to the palace to meet the emperor, you can say Amitabha first when you see the emperor, hahaha."
Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming knew that Datou had been involved in the world for many years before becoming an official, and was tainted with the spirit of the market, so they did not take it seriously with him.
Chang Sheng said to Yang Kai again, "What Big Tou said makes sense. Master Yu Yi and Master Xuan Ming are both monks, and it is inconvenient for them to frequent the palace. I can only work harder for you."
Yang Kai shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm serious. Apart from going to the palace in the morning and occasionally delivering memorials, I don't have anything else to do. I'm not as busy as you."
Changsheng said, "Actually, it's not that I don't have official duties that I need your help with, but I don't want to delay your breathing and practicing. Your Zhoutian Divine Skill can transfer spiritual energy. At critical moments, you can learn from each other's strengths and pass on the help. The higher your spiritual energy cultivation, the better the four of us will be." The more confident people feel.”
"What your Excellency said is absolutely true," Datou said with a smile, "Sir Yang has unparalleled magical skills and wonderful magic. We will have to rely on Mr. Yang's protection and care in the future."
"You are such a flatterer." Yang Kai was not used to joking, so he kept a straight face even when joking.
"Second." Yu nodded.
"I also agree." Shi Xuanming nodded.
Datou waved his hands hurriedly, "Hey, hey, tell me clearly. Do you agree with me, or do you agree with Yang Kai?"
Yu Yi ignored Datou and looked at Changsheng, "Sir, I noticed that you have never seen the emperor alone."
Changsheng waved his hand, "It's not that I have never, it's just that I don't want to have too much contact with the emperor. The emperor rewards me for not kneeling before you. Everyone else kneels, but I won't. Over time, the emperor will feel that I am on an equal footing with him. Furthermore, I don’t want to have too close a personal relationship with the Emperor. The Emperor is always the Emperor, and ministers can never be friends with the Emperor.”
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, everyone was thinking about what he said, but no one answered.
Chang Sheng did not want to mention the emperor too much, so he changed the topic, "This kind of life can only last for half a year at most. During this half year, we will do everything we should do and want to do, and at the same time we have to Take the time to prepare. Now all three of your mounts have been accounted for, except Datou, who has no mount..."
Before Chang Sheng could finish speaking, Da Tou took over the topic and said, "Sir, please don't worry about me. I only weigh a few dozen pounds. You can just take me with you when you travel."
"I won't ride with you." Shi Xuanming tilted his head.
"Don't look at me. Although I am a monk, I am still a woman. Isn't it a good idea to ride with you?" Yu Yi said with a smile.
Seeing the boss looking at himself again, Yang Kai shook his head and said, "My mount is still in its mother's womb. It will be good to be able to carry me forward in half a year. I can't take you with me."
Chang Sheng knew that the three of them were joking, so he said, "It is difficult for Da Tou to ride a horse. I am determined to find birds for him to use as mounts. The reason why I came back so late is to look for people to find out the news. There are very few birds that can carry people." , Looking at the whole of Central China, there are only two white cranes in Longhu Mountain, but there is a large bird in the southwest border, but that kind of bird feeds on dead people, so it is very unlucky."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Datou waved his hands repeatedly, "As long as you can carry me up into the air, it won't be a problem for you to feed on living people."
"Okay, if you have some free time, I'll accompany you for a walk." Changsheng said.
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, Shi Xuanming took over the conversation, "Sir, you are concerned about the people's livelihood in the world. For something like this, it's better for me to accompany him."
"No, no, it's not appropriate for you to go." Chang Sheng shook his head. Shaolin Temple belongs to Zen, and the giant eagles are birds used for sky burials in Tantric temples. In the eyes of Tantric monks, they are the incarnations of gods. If they go to capture them, they are likely to offend. When they arrived at the tantric temple, although Shi Xuanming was expelled from the temple, he was still a disciple of Buddhism. It was better not to let him reach out for such a not-so-bright thing.
Speaking of Tantric Buddhism, Changsheng thought of another thing, "By the way, can the relics be beneficial to you and Yu Yi's practice?"
"Why do you ask this, sir?" Shi Xuanming asked back.
"You just need to answer whether it's useful or not." Changsheng said.
Yu Yi vaguely guessed what Chang Sheng wanted to do, "Sir, please don't worry about us anymore."
"If you don't tell me, I'll just assume it's useful," Changsheng said, "I'll look for it and give it a try."
The two of them couldn't help but refuse again. It was a sincere refusal, not a polite refusal.
Chang Sheng did not answer the call. Although on the surface it looked like there was still more than half a year, there was not enough time according to careful calculation. The foal that was about to be born and the possible baby birds needed time to grow and train, and his own spells also needed time to practice and become familiar with, and Although Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming are both Buddhists, they have not dabbled in the magical power of Buddhism to conquer demons. They have to find suitable classics and secrets for them, and it will take time for the two to practice.
It was late next month, and there were still more than twenty days before the fifteenth day of next month. He had not seen Zhang Mo for a long time. The emperor would review the new army on the fifteenth day of next month, and Zhang Mo would definitely come by then. Wait until next month On the 15th, set off after seeing Zhang Mo.
He couldn't go by himself this time. Naturally, Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming couldn't go. Yang Kai didn't have time, so he could only take Da Tou. Moreover, he was looking for a mount for Da Tou, so he should be taken with him. The most important thing was that he wanted to take the opportunity to "explore" "Let's take a look at the pagodas of eminent monks that may contain magical secrets and the temples that may contain relics. He is now a high-ranking member of the imperial court. It is not appropriate to do some things by himself. He has to find a bad guy to take the lead.
While everyone was talking, they came to the prison and saw the captured female assassin. The moment he saw this person, Changsheng knew why this person wanted to assassinate him, because this person's appearance was 70% the same as that of the Jeju governor who was killed by him before. Similarly, daughters usually look like their father, and this person is undoubtedly the daughter of the governor of Jeju.
At this time, the woman was ready to say nothing and would rather die than give in. She never thought that Chang Sheng would not interrogate him, but just said calmly, "Your father is indeed corrupt and perverting the law, and he is indeed guilty of death. The court There is nothing wrong with killing him, but there are indeed flaws in my handling of this case. If it is governed by laws and regulations, he should be executed after petitioning the emperor. If so, he can still delay it until after the autumn harvest. As a child, I have a filial piety to avenge my father. It's commendable, but assassinating an official of the imperial court is a capital crime. I respect your filial piety, so I will let you go now. If you come again in the future, you will be directly questioned and executed..."
