When it comes to robbing and killing Liantai Temple, there are really a few people who escaped, including the three village relatives, but no one went to Guanlong Temple and Panzhao Temple for help, not that they didn't want to, but they couldn't, in the case of the tragedy of Liantai Temple, the presiding monk died unexpectedly, and someone always needs to come out to be responsible. This kind of thing is very clear to the three village families, and the others are not stupid, when Guanlong Temple and Panzhao Temple got the news of the accident in Liantai Temple, Zhengheng had already got accurate news, but it was too late. The presiding officer of Guanlong Temple or Zepanshoin Temple was shocked by the tragedy of Liantai Temple, and in shock, he stepped up his efforts to hire more ronin to gather believers to defend the temple leader, and on the other hand, led the warrior monk group to investigate the situation in Liantai Temple.
The presiding officers of Guanlong Temple and Panshoin Temple are really scared now, they originally thought that the formation of horns by the three Begben Mountains would be able to turn all the nearby land into temple territories, become a forbidden land for samurai families, and they could become a country within a country after a few years of operation, but they didn't expect that a tragedy would happen in Liantai Temple, and the mountain gate was full of slaughter, and they didn't know that there were still a few ronins stationed in the temple who escaped. It's also strange to say that when they learned that Liantai Temple was robbed and killed, the first object of suspicion in the minds of the two hosts was not the Date clan, but the bandit Shuikou, but this idea was quickly dispelled.
The Date clan could only use the garrison of Yukiyama Castle if they wanted to make a move, but it was not Yukazan Rentai Temple in the hinterland that directly faced the garrison of Koyama Castle, and Kanryuji Temple and Panshoin Temple were obviously more vulnerable to attack, so they had to calmly attack Rentai Temple through the gap between the two temples, and then calmly return to the station. There are fifty or sixty warrior monks in Liantai Temple plus the ronins stationed in the temple, and the other young and strong people who know it now are one or two hundred, and the death toll has reached five or six hundred, and it takes hundreds of elites to kill them overnight. If the Date clan completes it unknowingly, not only will the Liantai Temple be destroyed, but Kanryuji Temple and Panshoin Temple will not be spared.
The second thing they thought of might be the water thieves in the Seto Inland Sea, but the water thieves were rampant. However, their relationship with the Murakami Water Army and the Salt Water Army has always been that the well water does not interfere with the river water, and the other water thieves have not formed a climate, and now the Seto Inland Sea is in turmoil, but there are really no large-scale water thieves who have the courage to go ashore and attack and kill Rentai Temple.
The presiding officers of Kanryuji Temple and Panshoin Temple appeared at the foot of the mountain gate of Rentai Temple in Yukazan surrounded by warrior monks like stars and moons. A strong fishy smell inhaled into his nose, which made both of them a little unbearable, and he found that the tall torii gate outside the mountain gate had been cut off, and a bare-legged corpse in the grass next to the torii had fallen to the ground, his eyes widened, he had been strangled to death, and he had suffered brutal humiliation before his death. Most of the longhouses in front of the mountain gate were damaged. There are no more valuable belongings in the longhouse, although the three villages and ten guards try their best to prevent their subordinates from looting the longhouse outside the Liantai Temple, but the water thieves are water thieves after all, and wherever they will obey orders, they will become demons in private.
It was gloomy and dreary everywhere. A viscous, choking stench disgustingly stimulated people's sense of smell and led them to the courtyard in front of the temple inside the mountain gate, in the center of which was a huge incense burner. It is here that devotees put a stick of incense and sincerely pray for the blessings of the Buddha.
When they walked into the mountain gate, they couldn't believe their eyes. Inability to breathe normally. Monks, ronin, old people, women, children, and babies were all brutally slaughtered, one on top of the other, and some of the monks and ronins had their heads cut off and placed in the incense burner, and the head of the head of the abide of the Lotus Temple was placed on top.
A terrifying feeling instantly swallowed the hearts of everyone who entered the mountain gate, and the faces of the hosts of Guanlong Temple and Panzhao Temple turned pale, they did not expect that the thieves who attacked Liantai Temple would be so ferocious and so unscrupulous, as if they had a deep hatred with Liantai Temple. A great fear swelled up in the hearts of the presiding officers of Guanryuji Temple and Panshoin Temple. Such an enemy is hidden in the shadows, and I don't know when I will stretch out my clutches to catch Guanlong Temple and Panshoin Temple, and I don't know if they can defend the mountain gate, and it is difficult to think about it.
Thinking like this, they are even more desperate to know who the real murderer is.
The ronin of Rentai Temple is a family member of the famous samurai Mimura, and the ronin leaders hired by Kanryu Temple and Panshoin Temple are also mostly some famous local ronin bandit leaders. Noguchi Shinjuro, the resident ronin of Panshoji Temple, was not from Chinese, he was born in Higashi Harima, wandered to become the leader of a wild bandit, and was hired by Banshoji Temple to lead more than 30 of his subordinates to become resident ronin. Noguchi Shinjuro is a ruthless and fierce character from the bones.,It's by no means a good match.,Recently, I've been very close to the daughter of the head of the temple.,I think I want to mix up a good background.γ
The presiding officer of the temple saw Noguchi Shinjuro hurrying out of the apse with a tense face, and just wanted to ask, Noguchi Shinjuro spoke first: "Presiding, the body of the little master has been found, well, there is also a headless corpse that looks like the presiding officer of Rentai Temple." He was a little angry that the monks and nuns of the Panzhao Temple would die in the Liantai Temple, and he chased after him very tightly during this time, but he didn't expect to die with the presiding officer of the Liantai Temple, and his face was dark and gloomy.
When the host of the temple heard that his good daughter was also dead, he was angry, and he glanced at the host of the Guanlong Temple and said, "Let's go, lead the way!" β
A group of people walked through the blood-soaked front hall to the back yard, which was fairly clean, with only a few corpses compared to the front hall. The corpses of the monks and nuns who fell on their backs in the corridor were already stunned and stiff. The two short arrows shot at Bai Nen and a little red were not pulled out, and the dagger did not know who secretly went away, but the wound could not be covered, clearly telling the sΓΉ that he had died under the sword and spear, and it was another ferocious act of Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha and scolding the thief.
The headless corpse recounted a silent tragedy, and Shinjuro Noguchi stepped forward to turn over the corpse, wanting to order his subordinates to bury him alive, and the people ended up in a mass grave, and the monks would bury him well, and the presiding officer would continue to do a waterway puja with the skull and send him to Elysium. A sharp-eyed ronin suddenly jumped out, shouting, as if announcing that his eyes were vicious, and shouted loudly: "Everyone see that there are blood characters written on the robe, it must have been written by the master before he died, everyone see, it's Date Mashiro, yes, it's Date Masato." But he was jealous of Shinjuro Noguchi, and secretly decided that he must clean up after he went back, and he even shouted in front of him to invite meritorious deeds.
Noguchi Shinjuro also saw the blood characters on his clothes, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and he said gloomily: "Host, this blood character is not written by the master, it is really unbelievable that a person in the face of death can write such neat blood characters, and it is also without a head." β
The sharp-eyed ronin was a little reluctant and said: "Who knows if it was the distress signal written by the master for fear of encountering an accident before being attacked, it must have been done by someone from the Date family, otherwise why would the master write Date Zhengheng and not write other names." "It seems that he must be going to put the culprit on the head of the Date family, and looking at the way he gritted his teeth, it is obvious that he is a ronin samurai who was persecuted by the Date family and his family was ruined.
The presiding officer of the temple frowned and couldn't make up his mind, was this the work of the Date family, he was willing to believe in his heart that it was not the work of the Date family, but the blood book had to make him believe that this qiΔ pointed to Date Zhengheng, and was about to ask the host of Guanlong Temple. The slightly self-deprecating voice of the host of Guanlong Temple sounded: "This is not what he wrote before he died, it should be written by a thief after his death." The abbot of Liantai Temple has studied Chinese from the Zen master in Kyoto since he was a child, and he has always been the first Chinese monk to consider himself, so will he write his last words in the Japanese that he has always despised before he dies.? β
The presiding officer of the temple nodded slightly in agreement, and was about to make a long speech, when something happened that surprised them, Abe Shintaro, the leader of the ronin in Guanlong Temple, with more than a dozen subordinates, actually caught a few spies. Shintaro Abe shouted from afar: "Master, we have caught a few spies!" The host of Guanlong Temple thought that he had heard it wrong, and there would be spies in the current situation, and when Shintaro Abe brought people over, they saw clearly that the spies who were tied up several times were actually a few ragged people.
Regardless of whether these people are spies or not, the presiding officer of Guanlong Temple naturally wants to know some of yesterday's situation from their mouths, and the Buddha Nambu Amitabha said and asked, "What are you doing?" Unexpectedly, as soon as they asked, the people began to cry and cry with tears and snot, and from their mouths we could know that they were some local disciples, whose families had suffered heavy casualties in yesterday's massacre, and who wanted to go up the mountain today to see if their relatives were still alive.
The host of Guanlong Temple heard the howls of the people, his brows furrowed, and he waved his hand to take them down, Abe Shintaro's face was a little unbearable, and he threatened the people a few times, and one of them said something that lifted the spirits of everyone present.
The young man said, "I saw a group of dark shadows walking in the direction of Uno. β
Uno, Cizhao Temple, the host of Guanlong Temple and the host of Panshoin Temple glanced at each other, they all saw the definite light in each other's eyes, Cizhao Temple made absolutely impossible to escape the involvement, the expansion of Liantai Temple directly damaged the interests of Cizhao Temple, they definitely have a motive, and thought that the son-in-law of Cizhao Temple seems to be a water thief, they also have the ability to do so, they have motivation and ability, seventy or eighty percent may be done by Cizhao Temple.
