Chapter 1018 A Little Depression

The sky was dark, because of the continuous rain for several days, which made the air gloomy and damp!

In this kind of gray tide, there is a faint chill, which is obviously rare in this season! If the weather is not clear from now on, the area north of the Yellow River will gradually become cooler!

Bianjing, today's Kaifeng Mansion, later Tokyo! At this time, it seems to be shrouded in a misty middle layer of smoke.

Because it has just been washed away by a drizzle, and it has been raining for several days, it makes the whole world feel a little wet! The capital, which has very little vegetation, has also made the whole world a little fresher because of the baptism of drizzle.

However, this freshness is also mixed with some gloom that cannot be ignored, which makes people feel a little more depressed out of thin air!

It is because of this baptism that the whole city seems quiet! It didn't rain much in Tokyo, and every heavy rain should be happy, but the rain on the past two days has been depressing!

Because this rain seems to have brought misfortune, everyone feels that because of the attack of this rain, it has added a lot of uneasiness to the people who have been unknown. Because everyone understands that the piety of this faith and the persistent pursuit of the goal seem to have no direction!

Many people didn't go out, because everyone knew that since the emperor's class returned to the court at the beginning of the month, the entire capital was covered with a layer of sadness!

The emperor's northern expedition returned in vain, and the emperor himself was seriously injured!

I don't know where this news came from, but the emperor didn't have anything about the early dynasty, but even many people knew about it! On the contrary, no one from the court came out to avoid the rumors, which seems to verify everyone's suspicions!

And this rumor spread quickly, because Tokyo has been in turmoil since the previous dynasty. With this rumor, whether it is the people's own feelings or the people's instinctive worries, anyway, it makes the capital feel a little noisy!

Since the change of dynasty in the Central Plains, this time the stability has only been more than ten years. If you count from the time Zhu Wen usurped the Tang Dynasty, in just forty or fifty years, there have been five dynasties in the Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and now the Zhou State!

Ordinary people are actually very simple, that is, to live a stable life, but this kind of thing seems to have become a luxury. Changing the dynasty is like a marquee, and the people have lost confidence in this era! Because no one knows who the emperor will be replaced by when he opens his eyes tomorrow morning!

Finally, nearly ten years have passed, and compared to the stable days, there are some expectations and hopes in everyone's hearts, who knows that the founding emperor will return to heaven in a few years.

Now it is hard to look forward to a promising young emperor, who will go south to the south of the Yangtze River to recover more than ten states, and even take the land of the four states in the west of Shu. Seeing the emperor's civil and military rule, it really gave people a bit of a posture to unify the Central Plains.

This time, the emperor went north to fight against the Khitan, and the original intention was also to subdue the Northern Han puppet state by the way, seeing that the unification of the Central Plains was a matter of time. I didn't expect a small northern expedition, but suddenly everything became unstable, because it is said that the emperor returned with a serious illness!

The palace and the court did not come out to avoid the rumors, so the common people felt a little panicked. Even though the emperor already has several heirs, but because these heirs are too young, the common people feel a little unstable!

Everyone followed the external state of the palace, and naturally felt a little unstable!

Daishokokuji Temple!

A majestic place to visit Buddhism in Tokyo!

I don't know how many dynasties have been experienced, but it can be said that the courts of all dynasties have greatly respected this place. Even if the emperor strictly controlled Shamen in the first two years, and even banned many monks who did not have a degree, Daxiangguo Temple was not affected!

But today it seems to be a little different!

At this time, outside the mountain gate, there are heavy regiments surrounding! And this kind of encirclement is still layer by layer, and it encloses a big Xiangguo Temple!!

The soldiers with loaded guns and arrows were all on guard at this mountain gate, as if there was something important to happen in this temple, and it could happen at any time.

Because everyone didn't make any noise, there was a strong sense of depression in the air! Everyone stared closely at the mountain gate and the surroundings of Daxiangguo Temple, as if they didn't want to let go of even a mosquito!

The mountain gate is closed, and the tall courtyard wall blocks the inside and outside, and the outside is quiet, and the inside seems to be extremely quiet!

You must know that this was once the dojo of Master Luhu Chengchu, who in the world did not give Daxiangguo Temple some face?

The whereabouts of Master Chengchu have always been a mystery to the world. Because some people say that he has gone to the Western Elysium, and some people say that he is hidden in the Great Xiangguo Temple to practice. But the common people prefer to believe that he went to the Western Bliss, because for an enlightened monk, it is the best place to go.

However, as an ancient temple that leads the world's Buddhism, Daxiangguo Temple, like the ancient Buddhist dojo "Berlin Temple" in Zhaozhou, is not welcomed in the Central Plains. Daxiangguo Temple has a law tiger Chengchu, and Berlin Temple has a master of the Central Plains Buddhism, but Guo Rong, as the emperor of the Zhou State, for the sake of the people of the Central Plains, once attacked Buddhism. Probably for these reasons, Daxiangguo Temple is also very low-key at this time.

Although it was a little dark, it was not yet noon.

Perhaps feeling that the silence of the voice was depressing, the soldiers outside the Great Xiangguo Temple, under the signal of a general, suddenly approached the temple gate. And the footsteps of these soldiers seem to be even more anxious! Because of the original pure cultivation place, because of the siege of these soldiers, it suddenly seemed a little unstable!

These soldiers are fully armed, looking at the standard of armor, they should actually be the forbidden army in the palace!

Praetorian Army!

No matter what era it is, this should be the emperor's pro-army!

The emperor's pro-army, even if the emperor is no longer accustomed to Buddhism, he should not send his own personal guards! But now the soldiers besieging the Great Xiangguo Temple here are really the forbidden army of the Zhou State!

The emperor's pro-army was actually sent to besiege the famous cultivation place in the capital, which really made people feel a little inexplicable!

Faintly visible, there are monks in it, leaning on the top of the wall and peeping out. Because everyone didn't say anything, everything seemed a little weird!

In the past, at this time, there should be a lot of pilgrims here in Daxiangguo Temple, but because of something today, not only was the temple gate closed early, but even some people who wanted to come over were blocked by the soldiers from afar. Of course, these people will not be stupid to this extent, obviously seeing that there is a forbidden army doing things here, they will come to look for trouble, so they can't see half of the people approaching.
