Chapter 325: The Strange World Within The City Walls, The National Teacher Who Believes In Buddhism
Chapter 325: The strange world within the city wall, the Buddhist national preceptor
A country closed to the outside world,
Today seems important to be out of balance,
The sentries that used to patrol the city wall were now replaced by another group of people.
been stable for too long,
It seems that the army will not fight anymore.
Although there were only three thousand troops, Bai Yu easily defeated the defenders here, broke through the guards, and broke into the world inside the city wall.
"This is Nanli."
At this moment, Bai Yu stood on the city wall that had always isolated Nanli from other countries, quietly looking at this isolated country.
Nanli is a plain with not many hills and mountains.
Standing on the high city wall, you can see far and far.
What caught my eye was a strange world,
People in shabby clothing can be seen everywhere nearby, carrying wood, stone... like zombies.
Their eyes were dull and they were doing the same thing mechanically.
The surrounding houses are also dilapidated cottages,
The breeze blows and rolls up wisps of yellow sand, like purgatory on earth.
Lifeless, with no hope in sight.
However, looking further into the distance, and looking into the middle of the country,
but a completely different landscape,
The giant roc bird statue is carved so lifelike that it seems to be alive. Standing in the middle of the city, it exudes bursts of indescribable majesty.
And on the side of the roc,
It is a palace built in the sky,
The golden light is shining, carved with jewels and jade, piled with gold,
It's really a magnificent view in the world,
It is beautiful, like a place where gods live,
To the utmost luxury, to the utmost majesty,
Even in Qianyuan, the largest country in the world, the imperial palace in Lieyang City has never been so extravagant and beautiful.
And around the palace,
Also build all kinds of luxurious towers, rooftops for worship...
The golden light is shining, exquisite and magnificent, like a fairy creation, full of beauty and grace.
so extravagant,
It was in stark contrast to the desolate scene of the frontier.
And here at the border,
The mediocre people still use all kinds of backward and crude means, as if they are tireless worker ants,
All kinds of supplies are continuously being transported towards the most central city.
"This is Nanli...
Kong Lingshuang stood by his side, and quietly looked at the lifeless land,
With inexplicable thoughts in his eyes, he whispered softly.
After so many years,
She has come back!
"Enemy attack!!!"
"Enemy attack!!!"
"Quick... go and report!"
"Where is this army? Qianyuan's?"
Bai Yu has already led the army to break through the city gate and go up the city wall.
It was only then that the dull and decayed soldiers at Nanli came to their senses,
They kept shouting and ran towards the surroundings, intending to gather the legion and fight back against the invaders.
The general commanding them was a little confused,
He looked at the army that broke through the Nanli Wall, at some well-equipped and orderly soldiers.
I was a little at a loss for a while.
Nanli has not experienced war for hundreds of years.
Soldiers have forgotten how to fight.
Their daily life is just to direct the civilians to work and suppress the occasional people who are not smart and want to resist.
After hundreds of years of mediocrity,
In this generation, soldiers seem to have no concept of fighting.
In the country outside the Nanli Wall, the army from outside has invaded...
This is completely beyond their imagination and beyond their comprehension.
But now... an accident happened,
So, what should they do?
at the same time,
Scarlet Star City, the capital of Nanli, is a place full of extravagance, where the royal family lives.
In the palace under the giant roc statue,
The man with bright eyes slowly opened his eyes,
He has long golden hair, eyes as sharp as a falcon, and a straight nose.
Dressed in a bright red cassock, she sat quietly on a futon.
The palace he was in was huge, and he was the only one.
But in front of him, there are majestic and exquisite Buddha statues,
Lord Buddha, Lord Buddha,
Various meritorious virtues Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat.....
The gods and Buddhas of the Buddha Kingdom of Ultimate Bliss believed by the basic monks are all impressively listed,
The Buddha statues are also carved lifelike, the divine light is shining, and the Buddha's eyes seem to be really looking at the worshipers below, and countless manpower and material resources must have been poured into it.
With one hand across his chest, he wore a string of Buddhist beads in his palm, performing Buddhist rituals.
reciting scriptures softly,
Although he has not been shaved, he seems to have the Zen spirit of an eminent monk.
However at this moment,
He seemed to notice,
He stood up with a bang, and looked towards the west.
Frowning tightly, counting with hands,
Suddenly,
His complexion changed drastically, and his eyes widened.
My heart seems to be grabbed by something,
There is a vague premonition of impending disaster.
The Buddhist beads in his hand seemed to be shaken by an unknown force, and they were directly broken, and the beads were scattered on the ground one by one, making crisp and clear sounds.
々.This...what's going on?"
And at this moment,
"National teacher, the blood food has been prepared, and it will be placed in the dining room."
A servant outside the door knocked on the door lightly and said softly.
But in the small room not far from the side of the palace, there were faint sounds of children crying.
The blond man who was still in shock came back to his senses,
He shook his head, shaking off the messy thoughts in his heart.
He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "I see.
"One more thing..."
The boy outside the door paused, then continued.
"Say it.
Originally, because of the ominous hexagram and strange premonition, the national teacher was a little panicked.
At this moment, the servants outside were still chattering, which made him a little dissatisfied.
Hearing the cold voice of the national teacher, Xiaoston shivered.
Hastily said: "Your Majesty has sent an order saying that the medicine has been used up, please Wang Zhao) please ask the national teacher to refine some more and send it."
"Are you running out again?"
He frowned when he heard the words: "I see, you go down.
"Sister is.
The boy obediently retreated,
Suddenly, the beautiful palace returned to calm again.
He knelt piously on the futon, bowing to the countless statues of gods and Buddhas in front of him,
He murmured softly: "The disciple encounters a sign of catastrophe and death. The Lord Wanwang Buddha recites and worships for a hundred years, and has a devout belief. I will bless the disciple to survive this calamity in peace."
However, the next moment,
But his eyes suddenly shrank,
In his shocked and terrified eyes,
The dark light flickered, and strange power rippled out, bit by bit like ink, eroding the palm of the god and Buddha in front of him.
Originally lifelike, he looked down at his Buddha statue benevolently, but suddenly shifted his eyes, and seemed to become a little colder.
"Crack, crack, crack."
With bursts of tooth-piercing sounds,
Cracks appeared in the Buddha statue out of thin air. .
