Chapter 741: Betraying Li Hao

The mountain road was very wide, but the three Tibetan monks did not shy away from it, and they actually came to Xu Jingzong and their cavalry, the prayer wheel in the right hand "buzzed" non-stop, and the demon-slaying pestle staff in the left hand could make a metallic sound every time it fell on the ground.

Seeing this, the cavalry captain raised his hand to stop the cavalry, stared at the three monks, and asked sharply, "Who are you!" Why stand in our way! ”

The leader of a black-faced middle-aged monk with no short face stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "Ladies and gentlemen, the poor monk is an ascetic, walking for a day, he is thirsty, I would like to ask you Tanyue to give some water to quench your thirst." ”

As soon as he heard that it was a monk who had come to transform his fate, Xu Jingzong suddenly showed impatience, and drove forward immediately: "There is no water, go away, I have something urgent, don't stand in the way!" ”

"Tan Yue, God has the virtue of a good life, the Buddha has the ability to live the world, if Tan Yue is a Buddha, the merit is immeasurable, please give some water." The black-faced middle-aged monk was still smiling, although he was begging for charity, but when he spoke, he had a momentum of his own, and he couldn't see the meaning of pleading at all.

Xu Jingzong also saw that the monk's aura was not ordinary, and he felt that something was wrong, so he glanced at the cavalry captain on the side, and said softly: "Catch them." ”

"Yes!" The captain of the cavalry answered, and suddenly flicked his spear, glared and shouted, "Catch them!" ”

As soon as the words fell, several cavalry rushed up, and the shock protruded, but the three monks did not have the slightest surprise, their movements were even faster than this group of cavalry, only to see the leader of the black-faced monk suddenly smiled forward, like a ghost, his body shrank, dodging the spear of the cavalry captain, and then his body suddenly became shorter, as if he had become a dwarf, holding a demon pestle, and the horse's legs were knocked, and the cavalry wanted to stab him with a spear, but saw him drilling under the horse's belly, extremely fast, and frequently dodged the spear, All the legs and feet of all the horses were knocked off, and all the cavalry were turned on their backs, and the two monks behind had already shouted forward, and picked up the demon pestle to hit the cavalry, and the cavalry just fell off the horse, and before they could get up, they were knocked on the head by the demon pestle, and they all fell to the ground with wailing, and blood was spilled.

Xu Jingzong looked at all this in front of him in shock, he couldn't believe his eyes, the movements of these three monks were too fast, and in just a moment, fifty cavalry were killed and there was only one left, leaving him as a bare-pole commander.

The black-faced monk smiled and held the demon pestle, came to Xu Jingzong's horse's head, and sneered: "Tan Yue, come down." ”

Xu Jingzong was terrified in his heart, got off his horse with trembling hands and feet, and stood there, his legs trembling like chaff.

The black-faced monk circled around him and asked lightly, "What do you call it?" ”

"Xu ...... Xu Jingzong ......" Xu Jingzong replied truthfully.

The black-faced monk nodded, and motioned to the other two monks to come forward and search his body, and after searching for a while, the two monks found a military document and seal, and handed it to the black-faced monk.

The black-faced monk looked at the documents and seals, and grinned: "Yo, the official is not small, the prison army!" ”

Xu Jingzong laughed dryly, not daring to answer.

The black-faced monk stuffed the documents and seals into his arms, and said with a smile: "You may not know the poor monk, the poor monk is the king of Dalun Ming, the teacher of the Tubo country, Ba Suyan. ”

Xu Jingzong was surprised when he heard this: "The master of the Tubo National Sect of Dalun Ming has sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty, but Xu remembers that it is not you, the master. ”

"That's right, that's the poor monk's senior brother, Basutuo." Ba Suyan raised his eyebrows and said, "However, the senior brother of the poor monk is not good at learning and art, and when he went out to the Tang Dynasty with the Minister of Gar Dongzan, he lost his life in the Tang Dynasty...... This position should have been for a poor monk. ”

Ba Suyan was not sad at all by his brother's death, on the contrary, when he talked about his brother's death, he seemed to be very happy and proud.

Xu Jingzong hurriedly laughed: "Yes, Master Xu Mouguan has profound Buddhism, and his martial arts are superb, especially above the master's senior brother Basutuo." ”

"Don't be a sycophant." Ba Suyan sneered, "These words, why do you need to say them, now you are a prisoner of the poor monk, the poor monk asks, you answer, if you answer wrong or don't answer, every time, the poor monk will twist off one of your legs, if the leg is not enough, there is also an arm." ”

"The master asked." Xu Jingzong tried to calm down, and bowed down to make a big salute, saying, "Xu must know everything, and his words are endless." ”

"Okay." Ba Suyan asked, "This time, the Tang State sent troops to recruit me in Tibet, obviously it was Li Hao, the king of Qiongnan, who was in charge, why was the leader of the army a female general, and Li Hao was missing, where was Li Hao hiding, and was he secretly planning a conspiracy?" ”

"This ......" Xu Jingzong didn't expect him to ask this kind of question directly, betraying the whereabouts of the chief of the march, that would be tantamount to treason.

Seeing that he hesitated to answer, Ba Suyan stared at his legs, and muttered with a sneer: "Do you want to break your left leg or your right leg first?" ”

Xu Jingzong hurriedly said: "Master is slow, and listen to Xu Mou's words." ”

"Oh, what do you have to say, hurry up, after saying that, the poor monk will break your legs."

Xu Jingzong hurriedly said: "Master, Li Hao is the head of the march of my Tang Army, if Xu tells the master of his whereabouts, it is a capital crime, can the master promise Xu to give Xu a way to live, Xu is just a prison army, has never injured a soldier in Tubo, ask the master to raise his noble hand." ”

Ba Suyan sneered when he heard this: "Your life is in my hands now, do you dare to talk to the poor monk about the conditions?" ”

Xu Jingzong frowned when he heard this, and suddenly said coldly: "Master, if you are so ruthless, then Xu can only bite off his tongue and say nothing, and you will never know where Li Hao is." ”

Ba Suyan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect him to threaten himself, but think about it carefully, this Xu Jingzong is just a small person, Li Hao is a big fish, don't lose a big one because of a small one, as soon as he thought about it, Ba Suyan nodded and said: "Okay, the poor monk promised you, if you tell Li Hao's whereabouts, the poor monk will let you leave safely, and you will not move a single hair." ”

"It's not enough." Xu Jingzong said, "The master must not tell this matter, otherwise Xu will not escape the court's questioning." ”

Ba Suyan frowned when he heard this, very unhappy, but in order to get Li Hao's whereabouts, he said: "Okay, the poor monk promises you not to tell this matter, otherwise the poor monk will not be allowed by the Buddha!" ”

Seeing that he made an oath, Xu Jingzong was a little relieved, but he was cautious, stepped forward to lead the horse, turned over the horse, and then pointed to the northeast direction, and said: "Master, Li Hao is here four hundred miles to the north, guarded by a hundred cavalry, and there are two or three masters of martial arts to protect him, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close." ”

Ba Suyan frowned and said, "How can the poor monk know if what you said is true or false?" ”

Xu Jingzong said: "If what Xu said is not true, the master does not have to keep his promise and announce today's events, so that Xu will be ruined and discredited, which will not be tolerated by the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Hmm." Ba Suyan thought about it when he heard this, nodded and said, "Listening to you say this, it is also very credible, I hope you didn't deceive the poor monk." ”

Xu Jingzong said: "Master rest assured, Li Hao and I are not friends or enemies, Xu has already wanted to get rid of him, there is a master to make a move, Xu can't ask for it, and tell the master a good news, Li Hao is seriously ill at the moment, and it is quite difficult to even speak, as long as the master can solve Li Hao's guard, it will be as easy to capture Li Hao as a baby." ”

Ba Suyan sneered: "You Tang people, you like to fight in the nest the most, but this is for us in Tibet...... It's a good thing. ”

Xu Jingzong smiled dryly, and secretly thought in his heart: "Isn't it the same for you in Tubo, there are constant internal disputes. ”

After laughing, Xu Jingzong arched his hand and said, "Xu wishes the master a smooth victory over Li Hao." ”

Ba Suyan smiled, waved his hand and said, "Get out!" ”

As soon as Xu Jingzong heard this, not to mention how happy he was, he kicked the horse's belly and ran away.

Watching Xu Jingzong leave, a bearded monk stepped forward and asked, "Master, why don't you kill this person?" ”

"What's the use of killing him?" Basutuo glared at him and said coldly, "This Xu Jingzong is a greedy person who is afraid of death, and he seems to be Li Hao's political enemy, which shows that he likes to play with power, and having this kind of traitor in the Tang Dynasty is a great thing for us in Tibet." ”

The white-faced and tall monk on the side said: "Master is right, besides, we hold this Xu Jingzong's handle now, and one day in the future, it may be of great use." ”

"That's right!" Ba Suyan sneered gloomily, "This is also what the teacher thinks, otherwise how could he let him go so easily!" Okay, let's go find Li Hao quickly, if we can capture Li Hao alive, we will definitely be able to solve this Tibetan crisis! ”

When the bearded monk heard this, he asked worriedly, "Master, don't we inform the Great Discussion first?" Li Hao has a hundred cavalry beside him, and there are also masters to guard him, and there are only three of us, so I am afraid that it will not be easy to succeed. ”

"Waste, so daring!" Ba Suyan glared and snorted coldly, "Master? How tall can it be? For the master to enter the realm of the grandmaster for a long time, but also to practice yoga tantra to the supreme realm, even in Tianzhu, no one has ever reached such a realm, the master next to Li Hao, can be the opponent of the teacher? ”

"What about the 100 cavalry......"

Ba Suyan was silent for a moment when he heard this, and said slowly: "This matter, you should outwit ......"
