The last night, spent in sleeplessness and thinking, rolls of suicide notes were buried under a tree in front of the military camp by the soldiers. From then on, they waited for those who survived the battlefield.
The five thousand forbidden soldiers continued to move forward without any regrets. Ning Chen walked in front of the army and glanced at the lime beside him, a touch of guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Don't think about it, this is the path I chose, and it has nothing to do with anyone," Lime said calmly.
Ning Chen sighed in his heart, Lime could not have been used.
For the first time, he felt that he was so powerless. In front of absolute strength, no amount of calculations would be pale.
However, he couldn't just sit back and wait for death. He was a human being in two lifetimes, betting on what he had learned, and he had to pull this group of fake Buddhas into the world before he died.
Thinking of this, Ning Chen turned his head and asked, "Sister Qingming, the abbot of Du'e Temple may have a weakness, or a relative weakness." Qingming was silent, thought for a long time, and slowly said, "It is said that cultivating a vajra is not bad. The physical body will become heavier and heavier, and the speed may be the only shortcoming, but the abbot of Du'e Temple is the existence of the three disasters, even if it is slow, it is faster than all the acquired powerhouses.
many"
Hearing this, Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "If you fight, how long can you last without fighting?"
Lime was puzzled, with a suspicious look on her face, and replied, "I haven't played before, I'm not sure, but I should be able to hold ten strokes. What do you want to do?"
"Nothing, just asking." Ning Chen shook his head and replied.
Ten moves, not too many, but enough, he needs an opportunity, the abbot of Du'e Temple is too powerful, when fighting, there must be one person who can protect himself.
Since he can't do it, Lime can do the same.
After walking on for a while, a surging river appeared in front of me, and a commander of the forbidden army stepped forward and said respectfully, "Hou, the front is the South Lijiang River. After that, it will not be far from those monks in the Buddhist country."
The river is in a hurry, but it is not too wide. There are dykes built along the way, and there will be a bridge every 100 miles. This is to facilitate the people to cross the river. It really cost Daxia a lot of manpower and financial resources.
The group was walking on the bridge, and the group passed by. Ning Chen looked at the river behind him, squinted his eyes, and immediately continued to drive forward.
After walking another thirty miles, you can see the majestic city in the distance, Gulan City.
In the past, it was the land of Daxia, but now it has changed hands.
The people of Daxia did not believe in Buddhism. After the war, most of them became refugees and went into exile everywhere.
Daxia, who was once invincible, can't even protect his own people today. It must be said that it is a kind of sadness.
Today, the city of Gulan has become a holy place in the Buddhist country, and many Buddhist believers have come one after another from the Buddhist country to continue to pay homage to their Buddha.
The abbot of Du'e Temple is a Buddha in the human world, and he is the supreme god in the Buddhist country, so he will naturally have a large number of Buddhists to make offerings.
Ten thousand Buddhist disciples have been training in Gulan City for several days. Although the abbot of Du'e Temple is a human Buddha, he is extremely powerful. However, since he is in the human world, he still has to worry about his own Buddhist sons and grandsons.
He can sleep all the time, but those Buddhist disciples can't.
After successive battles, Buddhist disciples also began to suffer casualties and had to take a break for a while.
Ning Chen stood on the high ground, looking at the direction of Gulan City from a distance, Xiongcheng was close to him, but in fact it was at least three hundred miles away. The terrain on their side was slightly higher, so they could see it more clearly. .
The 5,000 Guards and the two Guard leaders all turned their attention to their Hou. They will stop the Buddhist disciples from going north here in the future, but this is too difficult.
They are waiting for Ning Chen's order. Their marquis is one of the smartest people in the world. If it wasn't for Beimeng's military advisor, this one could even be removed, and he would definitely find a way.
Outside the city of Gulan, thousands of hectares of fertile fields have begun to sprout green. When spring comes, everything recovers. It should be the best time, but because of the war, the people are displaced and become a bit desolate.
Ning Chen stood on the high ground for a whole day without saying a word, and only walked down when night fell.
The two leaders of the guards looked at each other, and really couldn't understand what Hou Ye was thinking.
After Ning Chen returned the account, he picked up a pen and wrote two letters, one was sent to the Daxia Imperial City with a letter eagle, and the remaining letter was handed to a forbidden army leader together with the ink sword in his hand, and solemnly said:
"You have to hand this letter to the barbarian king, this ink sword can be used as a token, go and return quickly"
"obey"
After receiving the sword and the letter, the leader of the forbidden army set off immediately, not daring to delay for a moment.
For the rest of the time, Ning Chen was still thinking in the account, weighing every detail. At this time, there could be no more mistakes.
Lime is in charge of taking care of Xiao Mingyue to rest, and the two have been together for a few days, and they have already become familiar with each other.
The only thing that makes Mingyue a little awkward is to always pay attention to her identity as a girl, and not let Lime see the flaws, so she has always tried to avoid physical contact.
Innate is not an ordinary martial artist, if it weren't for the preconceived thoughts and the true energy Ning Chen left in Mingyue's body, I'm afraid this matter would have been hidden.
"What are you thinking, it's been a day, and I haven't seen you speak." Lime walked forward and asked.
Ning Chen thought for a moment, then said the truth, "I'm going to borrow the way with the barbarian king and go to the Buddha country"
With their current strength, they can't stop it hard. It's better to take advantage of the absence of Du'e Temple and destroy the foundation of the Buddhist kingdom.
Lime frowned, the solution is good, but there is still a biggest problem.
"What to do here"
This was what she was most worried about. If they had just left, the Buddhist disciples would go north, who could resist.
"Diverting water from the southern Lijiang River will completely submerge this place. I have observed the terrain here today. The north side is slightly higher than the south side. As long as a few dams on the southern side of the Lijiang River are blown up, the river will immediately burst and flood the whole place."
"Most of the disciples in the Buddhist country have practiced the vajra, and their bodies are much heavier than ordinary warriors, and the land after the flood will turn into a swamp or mud. "
Ning Chen calmly analyzed and said, according to the current intensity of sunlight, from now on, after a flood, even the fastest place will take more than half a month to travel.
Even if these monks could think of other ways to advance the date a little, they would have already arrived in the Buddhist country by that time.
As long as the old monk and the four Buddhist guardians can be brought back, the pressure on the forbidden army left here can be greatly reduced. With the natural danger of the southern Li River, it should not be a problem to wait for the reinforcements to arrive for the last few days.
The only pity is the tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land in front of us. After the flood, this piece of land will basically be abandoned. However, at this time, we can no longer manage that much.
"How many people are you going to take with you?" Lime asked directly upon hearing the plan.
"One thousand." Ning Chen thought about it and said.
"Is it too little?" Lime asked, frowning again.
"Enough," Ning Chen replied. He knew very well that the people who went to the Buddhist country this time were basically bad luck, and it was very likely that they wouldn't be able to return even one. Not too many people.
At dawn, the leader of the forbidden army had already arrived at the palace of the Man Dynasty. After the ink sword was delivered, he was summoned by the King of Man before long.
The leader of the forbidden army handed over Ning Chen's handwritten letter, and immediately stood by His Highness and waited quietly.
The barbarian king looked at the letter, and his rough and mighty face changed several times. This boy, his courage is not ordinary, he actually wanted to enter the Buddhist country from him.
Borrowing is not a big deal, but he can't just take this guy so cheaply.
"Go back and tell your Marquis Zhiming, this king wants a city as the price for borrowing the way, and this king looks at Tianfu City well," the barbarian king said mercilessly.
The eyelids of the leader of the forbidden army jumped, and the appetite of this barbarian king was too great.
"I will report this matter to Lord Hou when I go back, and leave."
"Bring a letter eagle back, you must have a lot to talk about with this king," the barbarian king reminded with a faint smile.
The leader of the forbidden army nodded and left immediately.
After more than half a day, the leader of the forbidden army returned to the forbidden army camp that was stationed in front of the southern Li River. After seeing Ning Chen, he stated the request of the barbarian king word for word.
"Go back and rest." Ning Chen waved his hand and didn't say anything else.
The barbarian king's conditions are pure nonsense, he will not agree, nor has the right to agree, splitting the territory and breaking the soil is a taboo of the imperial court, even the eldest grandson dare not say this.
It was impossible to negotiate once and for all, and not long after that, another letter was sent to the Manchao Palace via a letter eagle.
The content of the letter is simpler this time, the ideas are prominent, and there is only one meaning expressed from beginning to end. You can wake up and stop dreaming for a hundred days.
Moreover, at the end of the letter, Ning Chen mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that if the negotiation failed, he would seriously consider going to the Barbarian Palace in person.
After reading the letter, the barbarian king was extremely upset, he knew that this kid was threatening him.
In this world, the last person he didn't want to see was Ning Chen, especially in the Man Palace, because as soon as Ning Chen came, Aman Bacheng would leave with him.
His daughter was getting older, and his elbows had begun to turn outwards. He was helpless.
The Barbarian King replied and severely reprimanded Ning Chen for his shamelessness. In the end, he put forward a condition of many concessions. He wanted Barbarian merchants to be exempted from customs duties for ten years.
When Ning Chen received the letter, the eldest grandson's reply letter also arrived. There were only four words in the letter, "Treat as appropriate"
This is because the eldest grandson is delegating power to him, and he will not be subject to military orders abroad. It is impossible to ask for instructions every time. These four words can be said to be the greatest support for him.
The barbarian king's request was not too much. After Ning Chen thought for a while, he replied, he didn't have much time, so he couldn't waste it here.
The letter eagle flew to the Man Palace, and when it flew back, it brought a gold medal. In the tent, Ning Chen, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly got up after winning the gold medal. Now that everything is ready, he can finally set off.
