Volume 1 A Hundred Battles and Yellow Sand Wear Gold Armor Chapter 52 Master Sardinia
On the surface, Ashina personally traveled four or five miles from the tribe to greet Wang Junlin, which is Ashina's attention to Wang Junlin, and also shows sincerity to cooperate with Wang Junlin.
But Wang Junlin knew that this was not the case, and there was still Zhou Hu, a substitute for the poisonous general, in the court of the Western Turks, but Ashina came to greet his real body in person with great fanfare, which made Wang Junlin quite annoyed. There are Ashina's people under the Tongye Hu Khan and King Bodofa, and the stronger former will have no spies by Ashina's side? Wang Junlin absolutely did not believe it. And as long as this spy sends back the news that the poisonous general appeared in the Ashina tribe, Changsun Sheng and Zhou Hu will not be able to explain to Tongye Hu Khan and King Bodofa.
However, Wang Junlin was not very worried about this matter, because he had never thought of entering the Ashina tribe. Even if the shaman of this tribe is a Sardinia Guru of Bon, and this Sardinia Guru is the younger brother of his own master.
"If Master really wants to help me, please give this secret recipe for using poison to Ashina, and I will personally indicate the efficacy and usage on it." Wang Junlin took out a note from his bosom and handed it to Chang Kuzi.
Chang Kuzi was a little surprised, but he smiled, did not refuse, took the note, and said, "Don't worry, the teacher will definitely give this note to Na Shina." ”
"Master must also tell Ashina that there is a secret recipe that is even more poisonous than this, in the hands of King Potato." Wang Junlin added.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and galloped eastward.
Ashina saw Wang Junlin leaving from a distance, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he ordered: "Ubak, you take three thousand people to chase the poison general, remember to capture him alive, don't kill him." ”
A commander of a thousand said yes, and then led 3,000 men to change direction and chase after Wang Junlin.
Wang Junlin dared to risk coming alone, how could he not take precautions, he took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a green pill that looked ugly, put it in the water bladder and dissolved, and let the war horse drink it in one gulp, he had been deliberately thirsty for the war horse for a long time, and the war horse soon drank the water in nearly half of the water bladder.
Then, with a long neigh, his eyes began to redden, and he galloped forward like crazy, nearly twice as fast as usual, and most importantly, he did not slow down. The 3,000 Turks chasing after him were originally four miles away from Wang Junlin, but now the distance was getting wider and wider, and soon Wang Junlin disappeared from their field of vision.
The ingredients of stimulants in later generations are not a secret, and they can even be searched on Du Niang, Wang Junlin has already collected some of them, and boiled them together to make stimulant pills. The effect was tested when he was in Gaotai City, so he wasn't worried that it would fail.
The thousand-commander Ubak led people to chase desperately, but he still couldn't find the shadow of Wang Junlin, so he could only take people back to his life with a depressed and unbelievable face.
At this time, Ashina was sitting in his big tent, holding a note from Chang Kuzi, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he hesitated.
A literate Hannu next to him had already read it to him. Many Turkic people can speak Chinese, but very few can read Chinese characters.
After a long silence, Ashina still didn't make up his mind, glanced at a captain next to him, and said in a deep voice: "Go, show this secret recipe to Master Sardin, and tell him that there is a more vicious secret recipe in King Potto's hand, and see what he says." ”
The captain bowed yes, and then left.
The nomads lived on water and grass, so the Ashina tribe was also next to a lake, but it was much smaller than the Chaiwobao Lake, where the Western Turkic court was located, but it was barely enough for the people and livestock of the Ashina tribe to drink.
And at the west end of this small lake there is a hillside, and there is a small temple on the hillside, and in the temple lives the Satin master of the Ashina tribe.
When the captain came to the small temple, the swarthy and skinny-skinned Master Sardinia was busy.
In front of this small temple, there are mountains of bones, people, cattle, sheep and horses, and from time to time herdsmen send clean bones, and then bow to the five bodies of Master Sardin, and then quietly leave.
The Bon Sardinian Master was using these dry bones and skeletons to build a throne of skeletons and bones next to a small temple.
When the captain came, the throne had already taken shape, and every bone had been cleaned by the faithful, but the Sardinia had to use red sand stones to clean the remaining hair from the scalp of each skull, until the skull was also as white as new, and the Bon Sardin master would find a suitable place to place the skeleton on it.
At the entrance of the small temple, the long withered son sat cross-legged, and he felt a terrifying and eerie beauty when he looked at this white bone throne. Then, he glanced at the Captain Wan who was walking over, closed his eyes slightly, and began to cultivate. He came to the Western Turks, in fact, not just to follow Wang Junlin, but to use the inexplicable aura of white bones here to cultivate, and get Wang Junlin over, first, he was entrusted by this Sardin master, and second, he wanted to see if Wang Junlin had practiced that mysterious technique and whether he could help him as soon as possible.
The Sardinian Master was so engaged that even if the Master came to him, he would not be distracted in the slightest.
Ever since the Bon Guru Sinrao Mibao founded the Four Methods of Bon, the Bon religion, which originally did not erect words or statues (Buddha statues), finally realized the mistakes of its own teachings after losing the struggle against Buddhism.
The spiritual gods and Buddhas are too far away, and only ignorant people can see the actual gods and Buddhas. People will believe in it, even if it is just a virtual shadow of a god and Buddha projected on the earth......
And without the protection of the royal power and the army. The Bon would have been brutally slaughtered by Buddhism and Nestorianism, not to mention developed. I don't know when the Bon gurus believed that the royal power controlled people's bodies, and the souls had to be guided by them.
So, they began to become the guru of the Tibetans and some tribes of the Western Regions. They also began to build their own temples, as they did in Buddhism.
In fact, compared to the Nestorian Dharma kings, who liked to meddle in secular power, the various ethnic groups and tribes in the Western Regions preferred the ascetic-like Bon masters, as long as they did not interfere with their religious propagation, they never competed with the secular chieftains for power and profit, and they were also able to unite the people and help these ambitious chiefs rule their people.
But the reason why Bon is not as widespread as Buddhism, and there are not as many believers as Buddhism, is because the masters of Bon always like to sacrifice things to their gods and Buddhas, and the way they sacrifice is to burn things, it is said that in the latest year of Bon, they burned millions of catties of barley, 6,000 yaks, 4,000 war horses, 10,000 sheep, 500 slaves, and countless skins and cloths, plus firewood and grass to cause the fire, a large fire was piled up in a radius of two miles, and the fire burned for three whole months. No rain in the sky can extinguish the fire......
Compared with asking for a pile of bones to pile up the throne, this kind of super extravagance and waste has caused many tribes a headache, so they have to stay away from Bon, and only some large tribes can afford it.
"Master Satin, the big boss asked you to see the secret recipe sent by the Han poison general, and there is an even more vicious secret recipe in the hands of King Bodo." Captain Wan glanced at Chang Kuzi and bowed respectfully to Master Sardin, holding the note in both hands, knowing that the master knew Chinese characters and did not need to translate.
Guru Sardinia put down what he was doing, looked at the captain with ghostly eyes, took the note, and sat down in the pile of skulls, resting and reading.
After half a ring, Master Sardinia leaned over and kissed the earth, and said with a solemn face: "Tell the big chief, do what you have to do, whether it is good or evil, the earth will contain all, spring has come, the grass will grow higher and higher, the bones of the heresy will be used to build a shrine for the gods and Buddhas, whether it is killed or poisoned, King Fuxian Nyorai and Sinla Ohga (Puming Dari Nyorai) will like it, and your soul will go to the Great Snow Mountain to go to heaven with the eagle." ”
Bon worships mountains, grasslands, the earth and the blue sky, and for them the cycle of life is nothing more than a withered grass.
The captain kissed the earth with his five bodies on the ground, and said with a solemn face: "I will tell the chief what Master Sardinia said must be true." ”
After saying that, the captain bowed respectfully to Guru Sardinia and then left.
After listening to Sartin's words conveyed by the captain, Ashina thought for a moment and said: "You can first find the two kinds of forage mentioned here, try the effect, if the effect is as the secret recipe says, then collect a large amount of this forage!" Anyway, sooner or later, we're going to have to fight a battle with Tong Ye Hu. Even if I didn't want to fight him in this battle, that fool would do whatever it took to kill me and Hurunubi at the instigation of King Hata. Ashina sighed and said lightly.

……
Western Turkic royal court.
The eldest grandson and father were injured at the bonfire, and a military attache went missing. Changsun Sheng used these two incidents as an excuse to challenge the Khan of Tongye Hu and King Bodofa, hoping that the two could give him an explanation, otherwise he would tear up the letter of state that canonized Xitong Yehu as Khan.
The Khan of Tongyehu and the King of Hatopa sincerely apologized and were willing to give 100,000 sheep to the crime. Changsun Sheng accepted Tongye Hu's apology, and happily announced the canonization of Tongye Hu Khan by the Great Sui Heavenly Khan, and gave the Great Sui to Princess Xinyi 100,000 pieces of silk, 10,000 pieces of porcelain, 10,000 jars of fine wine, 50,000 taels of silver, and 5,000 taels of gold as a dowry.
Then there was a grand wedding between Princess Xinyi and Tongye Hu Khan.
Everything went smoothly, and it seemed that the Khan of Tongye Hu and King Hata had achieved their goal, and Changsun Sheng had fulfilled his mission as an envoy of the Great Sui.
