Chapter 504 Choice
Logically speaking, the Palace of the King of Shu and the Queen Mother should not be surrounded by just a dozen mortal warriors as guards.
No matter how elite they are, and no matter how selected they are, they can probably be dealt with by any random cultivator of the fifth level.
As a Liao person and a native of the Tang Dynasty, Concubine Wang must have more than one or two people who hated her.
Then, she is either extremely open-minded and completely disregards life and death, or she is secretly protected by a great monk, and a very powerful one.
You can tell it’s the second one even with your toes.
As it got dark, Zhao Yushu packed up his drawing paper, left the alley amid the contemptuous looks of several beggars, and turned to the east.
The next morning, the good-for-nothing painter Zhao Yushu squatted near the Xiaodongmen, but this time he did not paint. Instead, he set up a small art stall and put out a few scrolls of paintings that had just been made by the poor people he had temporarily purchased last night.
This is the only way to Shengci Temple at Dadongmen.
According to the information provided by the King of Shu, Xiao Qing would go to Shengci Temple to worship every few days. I don’t know if I can wait for her today.
Obviously, his luck would not always be so good. Apart from selling a few paintings at cost price today, he did not see any Liao people passing by, let alone Concubine Xiao Qing. After all, this was the East Gate, not the North Gate.
However, his luck was not bad today, because before closing the city, he saw several lamas coming in from the east gate.
These lamas obviously did not come from far away. Their clothes and shoes were relatively clean, and they were even talking and laughing in low voices on the way. Although Zhao Yushu could not understand Tibetan, he could tell that these people must have gone to some clean place for a stroll.
Zhao Yushu moved his nose and smelled a faint scent of burning.
They went to some temple.
There are many Buddhist temples in Yizhou City, including several outside the east gate, but these temples are all Central Plains Buddhist temples. There is absolutely no Tibetan monastery, and the most famous one is only Shengci Temple.
In front of Yan Hui's corpse, the Tibetan Buddhist sect and the Central Plains Buddhist sect can be considered half enemies. The people from the Great Compassion Temple have not arrived yet. What are the lamas talking about in the Buddhist temple at this time?
Academic exchange?
Zhao Yushu gathered the remaining scrolls and stuffed them into his bag, then stood up and followed the lama who had already walked away.
Although the Tibetan monks’ residence was at the end of my plan, since I had encountered it, it would be better not to waste time.
Following them all the way, several lamas entered a luxurious but not grand ancestral temple.
"Cao Mansion?"
Zhao Yushu glanced at the lanterns hanging on the outer wall without stopping.
Ancestral temples are usually places for worshipping ancestors and daily sacrifices are also held here. Now the ancestral temple is allowed to be lived in by lamas of other ethnic groups, which shows that the owner of this Cao Mansion has a close relationship with Tubo.
Moreover, he did these things openly, which shows that this move was recognized and even authorized by many people.
I don’t know whether this Cao family member is just a simple younger brother or a representative of the local bully.
Zhao Yushu had not walked far when he felt a familiar wave of spiritual energy coming from behind, causing his body to tremble slightly.
In Zhang Yi Tower in Yizhou, Sword Master Dugu was sitting cross-legged, and on the cushion in front of him was an old man in white clothes and a white hat.
"It is unwise for Master to come to Yizhou in person."
Dugu Jiansheng is just like his sword, the sharpest in the world, and he never speaks in a hypocritical or polite manner.
King Puxian smiled and said: "My Bon religion is not like Shushan. All of my disciples are outstanding. If I don't leave the mountain again, I will be ashamed of the trust of the gods."
"The Buddha's bones have nothing to do with you, so it's better to leave."
"Bon religion is not for the Buddha's bones."
The eyes of Dugu Sword Saint shot out sharp brilliance, while King Puxian's gaze was much softer, but he did not dodge and went forward to meet the attack.
"Mr. Dugu, I am no match for you. But although the Bon sect is weak, it is not without the ability to fight back. I hope we can both take a step back."
The Lone Sword Saint snorted coldly: "If I wanted to retreat, I would not have come to Yizhou in the first place. Master, when I draw my sword, there will be no distinction between the inner and outer scenes."
The phantom of the giant sword in the sky of Yizhou seemed to have sensed the consciousness of its master and let out a roar. The colorful clouds in the sky were washed away, and the azure blue and the orange-red of dusk intertwined, dividing the sky into two.
All the cultivators within dozens of miles of Yizhou felt a shudder from the bottom of their hearts. With the top cultivators equipped with top-notch heavenly treasures, no one in the world had the confidence to withstand this blow head-on, not even the old immortal.
The Sword Master of Shushan is about to show his power. Who is he going to kill? !
King Puxian looked at Sword Master Dugu who was about to attack as soon as they disagreed, and finally understood why he was the one who came to Yizhou to take charge instead of the head of Shushan.
This is a person who has no logic, no feelings, and whose original intention will not be shaken in the slightest.
Only with someone like him in charge, all those with ulterior motives would not dare to test the bottom line of this great god. They would be trembling with fear with every step they take, fearing that they would accidentally touch something they shouldn't touch and be chopped down by a sword.
Sword Saint Dugu ensured the moral bottom line of the monks to the greatest extent and protected the safety of the people of Yizhou to the greatest extent.
"I was wrong."
King Puxian finally bowed his head and said: "I will leave Yizhou now. How far the children can go depends on their luck."
"Withdraw thirty miles from the city."
"it is good."
King Samantabhadra left, but he won't really leave. It's only thirty miles outside the city, which is just a blink of an eye for Neijing. If it really comes to the moment of life and death, who will care about your threat? By that time, who knows how many Neijings will come out at the same time. How many people can you kill with just one sword?
"Fu Yun."
Fu Yun's whole body trembled, and he walked towards Dugu Sword Saint tremblingly.
"How are you doing?"
"It's all up to the Master."
"If you still want to stay in Shushan, you have one hour to deal with worldly affairs."
Fu Yun smiled bitterly and knelt in front of the Lone Sword Saint with a sad expression, but did not move.
The Lone Swordsman glanced at his disciple and turned to Wu Ziteng.
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, Shushan disciple Wu Ziteng will obey your orders."
Wu Ziteng sighed in his heart and bowed down: "Disciple is here."
"Take back Fu Yun's token and remove his sword. Fu Yun, from now on, you are no longer a disciple of Shushan. I will not take back the skills I have passed on to you. I hope you will be a chivalrous man in the future, helping the weak and suppressing the strong. If you dare to cause trouble to the world, Shushan's sword will show no mercy. Go."
Fu Yun kowtowed three times, took off his badge and sword, and handed them to Wu Ziteng with both hands.
"Junior brother, the world is dangerous and the road ahead is long. Please take care."
Fu Yun lost his status as a Shushan disciple. No matter whether Miao Yinhai's feelings for him were genuine or fake, he could no longer use his status to do anything to Shushan.
Zhao Yushu looked back at the street corner and saw a sedan chair carrying a woman dressed in snow-white walking into the Cao family temple, followed by four sixth-level guards.
Miaoyinhai arrived in Yizhou and went straight into the headquarters of the Tubo Buddhist sect.
What is their relationship?
What are the two Tibetan religions planning?
