Chapter 2917 The initiator has no descendants
The autumn grass is turning yellow.
?The world seems to be getting more and more desolate because of this.
??The herdsmen in the Western Regions who are now gathered in the name of Buddha have experienced the malice of heaven and earth before they taste the taste of victory.
‘The weather is getting colder...’ Tong Geluojia said slowly.
This is an obvious fact, a fact that cannot be changed.
Bu Sen sat on one side, looking at the bonfire lit in the distance, and exhaled. The air coming out of the body formed smoke near the mouth, and then quickly dissipated in the air, just like their slogans and dreams.
There were no other people around, only people from Shanshan and some monks and disciples from Busen.
"Master, your monk..." Tong Geluojia looked back and said in a low voice, "It seems that there is a lot missing..."
Bu Sen raised his eyebrows, "In the past few days, a total of more than 800 people have left. 』
Tong Grojia''s face stiffened, and then he laughed, "Well...I saw it wrong, the master has many disciples..." Because the number Bu Sen mentioned was the Shanshan Guards directly under Tong Grojia. The number of people who sneaked away in two days.
?Bu Sen also nodded, "Yes, your people are here too." 』
The two were silent for a while, and Tong Geluojia said: "Master, where are the other countries?" 』
Tong Geluojia thinks Buddhism is very powerful, and so is the Buddha. This greatness does not mean that the Buddha really has great magic power or great power, but that the set of teachings devised by the Buddha is very powerful. In other words, people like Bu Sen, who take the name of Buddha, are very powerful in doing things in the world.
For example, the teachings of the Buddha say that you must not lie.
So when the monks who appear in the name of Buddha ask about some specific matters, the herdsmen will not lie, nor will they think of lying, because this is in front of the Buddha''s messenger, how can they lie?
?In this way, the movements of any country in the Western Regions cannot be hidden from the monks who are watching silently all the time and quietly hiding among the people.
?Buddhism requires believers not to lie, but what about the Buddha himself who said he would not lie?
The Buddha did not lie, he just said: "Don''t tell." 』
??Thereupon Bu Sen also squinted his eyes slightly, clasped his hands together, and softly announced the Buddha''s name, "Buddha said, don''t say it." 』
This is like some announcements in later generations, which only say some things that can be said, but as for other content, detailed processes, and specific matters, "cannot be said." 』
『In that case, what are you afraid of, Master? Tong Geluojia said, "Every country has left seeds, just like the land in front of you. The grass withered this year, but it will grow again next year!" 』
This time, Busen was silent for a longer time, and finally said softly: "What if it doesn''t grow?" 』
length...what? ! ” Tong Geluojia was stunned.
?Tong Grojia''s expression changed, as if the calm desk in his heart had been overturned, and his heart was in such a mess that he didn''t know what to say.
?Bussen raised a finger, pointed at the sky, then at the ground, and then at himself.
What''s the meaning?
Tong Geluojia’s eyes widened, “Am I the only one in heaven and on earth? Master, are you... going to become a Buddha? 』
?Bu Sen showed a smile, and there was sober cruelty and obsessed madness in his eyes, mixed together, "Either reincarnation in heaven, or falling into the **** of hungry ghosts forever..."
Tong Grojia thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don''t understand, master." 』
Bu Sen glanced at Tong Grojia and said, "You can''t say it." 』
?Tong Geluojia: "..."
?Bussen did not give Tongluojia more time, and waved his hand, "When the time is up...just do what you want. This is the true meaning of the Buddha." 』
??Although Tong Geluojia still had some things to ask and some unanswered questions, just like Busen said, his time was up, and he saw the leader of Nuoqiang walking over from a distance...
?Tong Geluojia lowered his head and worshiped in front of Master Busen.
Master Busen stretched out a hand and touched Tong Grojia''s head.
Tong Geluojia stood up, bowed again, turned around and walked away. On the road, he only made eye contact with the leader of the Nu Qiang who passed by him. He didn''t even say hello, but left with full of doubts. .
…(O_o)??…
From a distance, Taksa stood on a small dirt bag and watched Busen meeting the leaders of the Western Regions one after another. The expression on his face was very ugly.
Busen did not act in hiding, but found a place openly and openly, and even met with the commanders of these Western Region countries not far from King Taksa''s tent. This naturally attracted the attention of Taksa and others.
But the problem is that Taksa doesn''t have any good solution, because he still needs the herdsmen cannon fodder from the Western Regions. If Busen is killed at this time, there is no way that the Western Region Allied Forces will immediately fall apart in the next moment.
『Damn it! Damn it, you''re threatening me! ” Taksa said angrily, “He is demonstrating! Demonstrate to the great Kushan General, demonstrate to me! I should really kick his ass... This old monkey, he is showing that this place is still under his control! He has a way to make those generals obey like sheep! One by one, they lined up to wait for his interview! Damn it, **** it! 』
That’s right.
?Bussen is threatening Taksa.
?Of course, it can also be said that he is appeasing the commanders of the Western Region countries for Taksa.
It depends on how you understand it.
??It''s like a government notice that says it''s a duck, it must be a duck. It has nothing to do with tigers, and naturally has little to do with flies and mice.
It’s just about the human heart.
The human lifespan is really too short, and it is easy to die. There is a shell with extremely strong regenerative ability all over the body, but this shell cannot resist even a wooden thorn. Just like other human organs, many of them are just used for temporary purposes, as long as they are not broken for thirty or forty years. Can. This may be the fundamental reason why humans are very short-sighted.
? Thirty or forty years later, everything in my body starts to go wrong, and every day seems like I am making money, so what can I not look away from? And why should we take a long-term view? Are long-term things relevant to you? He will be dead by then, and will be unable to control anything, and nothing will matter to him.
This is especially true if there are no descendants and no descendants.
?Those who want to understand this change their state of mind.
As for what they become, they are different.
??Taksa''s heart is a deer or a horse, a duck or a mouse, that is, in a matter of seconds.
Before sending troops, Taksa might still have some conscience, but when he climbed to the position of the current commander of the coalition forces and the general of the Western Region, he was used to seeing hundreds of herdsmen die, so he continued to die. Hundreds or thousands, what’s the problem?
It’s like telling a lie for the first time, your face will turn red.
The ten thousandth time I lied, I believed it.
The first time you take money, your hands will shake.
The ten thousandth time I took money, I didn’t even bother to take it if it was less.
The first time you kill someone, you will be scared.
The 10,000th time I kill someone, my hands are just sore...
General, do you need me to ask what they said? ” Taksa’s confidant asked, “I’m going to find some generals from small countries. They don’t dare to hide anything from us... Ask a few more, and then compare them with each other. If they dare to lie to us, we will send them next time. Die to them! 』
Are you a fool? ! Taksa was furious, and reached out to slap his confidant on the head, knocking his helmet off, "Now that the countries in the Western Region are dissatisfied with us, are you going to let them explode completely?" They just have no reason, you are going to put the knife into their hands! 』
The confidants did not dare to resist, and responded repeatedly. After Taksa''s anger subsided, he asked: "General, what should we do now?" 』
Do nothing! "Taxa said in a deep voice, "There is only one thing now, train our soldiers well! The next battle may be our life and death battle! 』
?Everyone knows that the war in the Western Region is not easy to fight now.
? Then everyone is thinking about the what-if situation, because the current "what-if" is no longer considered a "what-if".
As for the ordinary herdsmen of the Western Regions, they didn’t know these things before, so they can continue to know nothing now... ? ? ? Anyway, in the beginning, these herdsmen from the Western Regions either dedicated their brains to the commanders of the Western Regions or to the Buddha. , let’s continue now. It’s impossible to give our brains back to these ordinary herdsmen in the Western Regions.
The confidant nodded in agreement, then turned around and walked down the slope. Taksa had bitten some fat on the bodies of the Western Region countries before, and now he had to digest it thoroughly. Before it was digested, Taksa didn''t want to move.
So, is this why Busen dared to show it outside for Taksa to see?
?Taksa stood on the **** and stared at Busen and the others in the distance for a while, then he grinded his teeth and turned around to go down.
…(〃 Pan`)convex…
Xihai City.
??Just when Zhang Liao and Han Zheng left Xihai City and carried out relevant matters respectively, some "smart people" in Xihai were preparing to flee.
This is an invisible chamber of commerce.
Some businessmen gathered together to support each other.
Most human beings have the habit of staying in groups, and the characteristics of social animals will also be reflected in these businessmen.
There is never a shortage of "smart people" in this world. Although Zhang Liao has asked his soldiers to announce in the city that reinforcements from General Hussars are about to arrive and Xihai City is safe, some people still don''t believe it and think this is an official scam.
?In a large courtyard in Xihai, groups of people were squatting or standing in their respective corners of the house, shivering on the brazier to keep warm, and cursing at the same time.
In autumn in the Western Regions, the temperature difference between morning and evening is already obvious, and the temperature at night often drops to single digits. Because of the war, some supplies were rationed, so the original "luxury" behavior of sleeping in a room by one person was no longer possible. In order to keep warm and protect the few belongings they had, some people naturally gathered together. .
?A tall man walked into the courtyard. When people in the courtyard and inside the house saw him, they stood up one after another, greeted him with greetings, and called him brother. This man had a cold expression on his face that could only be seen after seeing the blood of life and death. Behind him were two men with knives, probably his bodyguards.
?From the names of others, we generally know that the person''s surname is Guan and his personal name is Guan Er. As for whether the person is called brother or ye at the end, it corresponds to the mutual level difference between the person calling him and the person being called. Guan Er is from Longyou. During the Western Qiang Rebellion, his father and he went to the Western Regions. Then when Fei Qian sent Lu Bu, he began to contact Lu Bu. By virtue of his identity as a Han, he stayed in Xihai City.
??Lü Bu left Xihai City, and the military power in the city was temporarily under Zhang Liao''s jurisdiction. However, in fact, Zhang Liao''s jurisdiction could not immediately make all the soldiers in the city feel at ease.
This is like the CEO of a large branch suddenly being dismissed, and there is always some turmoil after a new leader comes. In addition, if there are no foreign enemies attacking around Xihai City, there is a high probability that this turmoil will gradually subside. However, now the news of the attack by the Western Region Allied Forces in Xihai City has been aroused. It seems that the company is about to be annexed by other companies. In Xihai City, Of course, some guys will have other thoughts...
??If a company goes bankrupt, will the employees in the company live and die with the company?
??If a country falls, will the people in the country coexist and die with the country?
The former is basically impossible, but the latter, whether it is thousands of years of history or the giant bears in modern times, has proved that "coexistence and death" may be possible on a small scale, but once it is expanded, All kinds of fun can no longer be restrained.
"How about it? 』
Yes, second brother, how is the situation now? 』
『Are the Western Region Allied Forces...really coming? 』
??People inside and outside the courtyard gathered in the living room, following Guan Er closely. Some people even held their breath, waiting for Guan Er to give them a conclusion.
? ? Guan Er sat at the top of the table. He was silent for a little while, without showing off too much. He just nodded and said, "The Western Region Allied Forces are really here!" General Zhang is gone! 』
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.
Before this, many people could temporarily deceive themselves, saying that the Western Region Allied Forces would not come back, or they could find a reason for themselves to feel at ease, such as most of the guards were there, and General Zhang Liao was also there, etc. But now that Lu Bu has left, Zhang Liao has also left...
?Those who have a God''s perspective will naturally know that Zhang Liao went to give the Western Regions Allied Forces a severe beating, and the Western Regions Allied Forces are not that scary. But the question is, how can the people in Xihai City obtain a God''s perspective?
Because in preparation for war, we must first ensure the needs of the troops, the supplies for the residents in the city are naturally insufficient. As the temperature drops, the situation of hunger and cold is inevitable. Whether it is ordinary people or merchants like Guan Er, Everyone needs to eat, and if there is no food, they will naturally panic.
Now in Xihai City, there is a shortage of food and grass everywhere.
Even if someone has food on hand, they will not take it out easily, let alone distribute it to others for free. Moreover, this seemingly benign behavior may not immediately lead to looting under the current circumstances. , and then the people who shared the food would be stabbed to death on the spot, and we don’t even know who stabbed to death...
Do you know? Some time ago, General Zhang had people search... quite a few people..." Someone whispered, "It''s impossible to say that the flesh and blood of those people are what General Zhang is going to fight with..."
…” Guan Er was silent, and so were the others.
???Guan Er watched everyone with cold eyes. In addition to his apparent reason to protect his property, he also had a more hidden reason that forced him to flee Xihai City...
Those gathered in the courtyard were all traders, big and small. These people came to Xihai City because of its wealth and trade, and made a lot of money from trade. Now they are trapped.
Guan Er doesn’t want to die, and others don’t want to die either.
?Because they still have a lot of money to spend. If they die like this, wouldn''t the money be in vain and benefit others?
‘No, I have to go back! ” Someone gritted his teeth and said, “We must go back! I can''t stay here any longer! 』
Yes, yes! Can''t stay here anymore! 』
That’s right! The war is in turmoil, and one more day of stay is one more day of risk! 』
『I heard that there is a tunnel in the city...』
"Shut up! Even if there were, it wouldn’t be our turn...』
Guan Er glanced at everyone. These people all have some money, and they all made some money through trade between the Han and Hu people after the construction of Xihai City.
Of course, everyone present, whether Guan Er or others, believed that they had earned their current money through hard work and hard work. It had nothing to do with the Hussar, and it had nothing to do with the big man.
Therefore, Zhang Liao''s previous investigation of Fatty An frightened them. How could you attack a kind, mellow, and honest businessman? If Fatty An was touched this time, will it be done to them next time?
?The money you have worked so hard to earn will be left to your children even if you die. How can it be taken away by others in vain?
?Is there anything wrong with this?
Everyone was talking and becoming more and more anxious.
Where can we go after leaving Xihai City? 』
『Anywhere you go is better than Xihai City! There''s going to be a war here! 』
"that is! Before the Han Dynasty came to the Western Regions, didn’t we live well? 』
But even if you want to leave now, you can’t leave, right? 』
There are merchants all around. These merchants are mainly from the Western Regions because they are familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. Those merchants who prefer the Han region followed people from some surrounding villages to Yumen Pass during the last migration.
? ? Guan Er sighed, "I can contact Lao De... first find a place to avoid the limelight. If it is really safe, it will not be too late to come back..."
"who? 』
Which color-eyed person? 』
‘Didn’t you hear that he was dead? 』
Guan Er shook his head, "He hid." We rescued him and asked him to find a safe place for us. 』
Lao De is a Semu person.
Guan Er and the others are Han Chinese.
But all have one thing in common, they are businessmen.
『How about... how about we go to Yumen Pass? "Someone said hesitantly, "Go to Han Dynasty, Han Dynasty..."
Before this person could finish speaking, he was overruled by others, "Han land?" Are you stupid or dumb? Why did our fathers and ancestors escape from Han Dynasty? Don’t you know it yourself? If those officials in Han had treated our parents and ancestors better back then, we wouldn’t be here now! I don’t trust the Hu people, but I don’t trust the Han people either! 』
"that is! Look at the Han officials in Xihai City. Aren’t they just like the officials in Han Dynasty before? 』
"How many people die, how many people die, those officials will not care!" It''s just a name change. Before, it was said that it was bandits in the mountains who did the evil, but now in Xihai, it''s said that it was horse thieves who did it! 』
"alright! ” Guan Er said in a deep voice, “Those who are willing to stay, stay, and those who are willing to leave, just leave!” But no matter which one you choose, you can''t betray your brother! If someone becomes a traitor, they will be hunted down to the ends of the earth! 』
