Chapter 3280 Thinking about danger(2/2)
The place where Gu Yong chose to meet with the representatives of the three families was in a Taoist temple.
Compared to the bald monk, Gu Yong thought it was better to have a local Taoist school.
The Taoist temple is between the mountains and forests, with one side of the cliff and the other side of the ramp, so anyone who comes can be seen on a high place. Although the Taoist temple cannot be said to be full of incense during the day, there are still many people who come and pray to the immortals, which makes Gu Yong and others wearing casual clothes not too abrupt and obvious.
When I got up the mountain, it was getting late, so it was very normal to stay in the guest room of Taoist temple on the mountain for a night and wait for the next day to go down the mountain. Even if no one could find any problem.
The moon rises to the treetops.
Gu Yong sat quietly in the room.
I don’t know how long it took, but a shadow swayed in the corridor, “Master, everyone has arrived.”
"Yeah." Gu Yong responded, got up, and walked out of the guest room.
Outside the guest rooms is a long corridor.
The Taoist temple is very quiet.
Gu Yong walked slowly in the corridor. The wooden boards under his feet were loose, and they couldn't help but make a creaking sound, rippling in the night.
Taoism developed earlier in Jiangdong and Wudi.
For example, Master Ge Tian’s alchemy sect is very famous in Jiangdong.
However, due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the influence of the three brothers of Zhang Jiao, some Taoist people were regarded as dangerous elements and were suppressed for a while. In addition, Zhang Lu was in a state of unity in Hanzhong, which made the local princes feel alert. However, as the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled, the impact gradually dissipated, and the disputes in the world changed from chaos to a state of stagnation, and the local suppression of Taoism was no longer so strict...
Outside the gate of the back hall, a Taoist priest bowed his head with one hand.
Gu Yong stopped and returned the greeting.
The Taoist temple worships God Xuantian.
The Emperor Xuantian is also called the Emperor Xuanwu, the True Lord of Yousheng, etc.
The late Eastern Han Dynasty was the stage of Xuanwu's status rising, so there was no problem in worshiping Xuantian God here in Jiangdong.
After the formation of Taoism, the first of the seven Xuanwu constellations, namely Douxing, also known as Nandou, was respected because of the belief that "Nandou is imprisoned for life and Beidou is imprisoned for death".
At first, Xuanwu was just a guardian god in Taoism, but because the people's belief in it continued to deepen, the position and status he mastered became increasingly prominent, and eventually became the great god God worshipped by Taoism.
From a certain perspective, it is obvious that the Xuantian God finally ascended the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, relying on the faith of thousands of people, and it is also a reflection of the people's hearts and opinions...
Gu Yong stood at the back door and looked up at the statue of the god in the hall.
The light and fire of the eternal lamp before the statue of the god illuminates on the statue of the god.
"Dare you dare to ask the Taoist priest, are there any equal parts of the gods?" Gu Yong looked at the statue and asked softly.
The Taoist priest recited the Infinite Heavenly Lord aside, and said, "There are equal parts. Those who practice the highest immortals will ascend to the void, have an invisible body, and will be in the same body as the Tao, and will never have a disaster. The highest immortal ascends to heaven in the sun, live in the upper palace, and have infinite blessings. The middle immortals can form palaces in the sky, drink the flowing clouds and eat the essence, and they will be thousands of miles in a single thought. The lower immortals often live in famous cave palaces, lead ghosts and gods in the three realms, and control the life and death of life and death on the ground. The lower immortals have merits and accumulate kalpas, and they should also replenish the heavenly immortals. This is the difference between the upper and lower immortals.
Gu Yong nodded, but after a moment he shook his head again, "If you are an immortal, you will inevitably work hard, and you will be in charge of ghosts and gods' worries about life and death..."
The Taoist arched, "Under the great way, there are straw dogs."
『…』
Gu Yong nodded, then bowed to God Xuantian in the back hall, bid farewell to the Taoist priest, and turned around and passed the back hall.
The Taoist priest watched Gu Yong leave, and then worshiped the statue of the god of the Xuantian God. His eyes closed slightly, his lips moved slightly, and his voice was muttering softly. If he had not been sticked very close, it would have been difficult to detect. "... I sincerely convert to the origin of Yin and Yang ancestors of Heaven and Earth, received the imperial edict from God, and held the mantras and seal scripts to spiritual treasures. I collected brocade seal scripts, exhaled the essence of the five qi, and emitted the three lights of the three lights. I refined and controlled the body, suppressed evil spirits, great compassion, great sages, great compassion, five spirits, five elders, and five directions to save people and protect their lives..."
Gu Yong entered the backyard, turned over the patio, and walked a few more steps. There was a bamboo forest with a winding path in the forest, revealing a corner of the thatched cottage.
The curtain had already been set up in the thatched cottage, and the silver charcoal that drove away the cold was lit, and the tea soup was cooked.
The three people who had arrived early were shocked when they saw Gu Yong coming in person, and then quickly stepped out of the thatched cottage to greet him.
Gu Yong waved his hand and helped the three of them up one by one, then immediately entered the thatched cottage, and sat down in the main and second place.
After a little silence, Gu Yong whispered: "What do you think about Zhang's words?"
Someone immediately said, "Don't take it seriously. If we really kill the Four Mountains Kings, wouldn't we betray ourselves?"
Jin Qi, Mao Gan, Chen Pu, and Zushan are each called Shanwang.
"If Mr. Zhang comes in person...then it would be fine. Now he is just a son of Zhang. He is talking around in a fog. What kind of face does Mr. Gu give him?"
『That's it, that's it!』
"Good, please relax. The four mountain kings are all old people, and they are very happy and profitable. Even if there are some inappropriate points, they will push the Yue people. Isn't it just a clean one?"
『Yes, yes…』
The three of them squirted, no matter what they said, they mostly meant the same thing, that is, the four bandit leaders, it would be better to keep them and not be killed.
In fact, the reason why the three families cannot be killed is not that they have any feelings for these four bandit leaders, but that they have interests.
Gu Yong could understand it, but after listening to the three of them telling each other, he said: "If this... is not what Mr. Zhang wants to do it, but the lord wants to do it..."
"This... won't be possible?"
The three of them were shocked.
Gu Yong said softly: "Zhu Junli was defeated and Lu Zijing rushed to pay homage to his lord, so the lord sent more doctors and medicines to the place where the governor of Zhou..."
"Is this Zhou Gongjin going to lead the army?"
『His body...』
"If this is...it's still a real life fight..."
"However, this one has another with the Four Mountains King... Oh, I understand... In this way, it's really a headache..."
The people here are not very talented, especially the internal fighting skills are all full, so they quickly understood what Gu Yong meant.
Now Zhou Yu is likely to take over the front-line military affairs, so the unstable factors in the rear of Jiangdong must be eliminated before Zhou Yu is dispatched, or at least suppressed for a while. Then the four major bandits who performed "excellent" in the refugee wave a few days ago naturally became the primary unstable factors that need to be eliminated.
If Gu Yong and others do it themselves and divide the relationship, they can also distinguish some of the relationship. If Zhou Yu takes action, it will be even more troublesome to get involved...
Therefore, as Zhang Zhao, who was fighting and cooperating with the Jiangdong gentry, selling well at the right time becomes a natural choice. Anyway, Zhang Zhao and the pro-war faction have always been unable to get along, and secretly pulling the pro-war faction's pro-war faction is also a natural choice.
"But if there is really no arms...if there is a real turmoil, wouldn't we be like the past, and we can only be..."
"Yes, Brother Lu's death is especially in front of you!"
"Yes, right!"
『Hmm…』 Gu Yong closed his eyes and sighed. After a moment, he opened his eyes and glanced at the three of them.『I heard... Now after King Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande were in Jiaozhou, comforting the local area, reducing taxes and rents, recruiting wise men... He was strong and powerful, and he was quite heroic...』
"hiss……"
"Your Majesty Gu means..."
Gu Yong waved his hand and said, "I don't mean anything... It's just this person, you should always be prepared for danger in times of peace..."
The three seemed to understand something.
