Northern Wei, Jizhou.

Wuyi County.

It had just snowed heavily in Fucheng. After nightfall, the ice was broken and there were no pedestrians on the streets and alleys. Even the patrol soldiers were lazy and hid in the camp without going out. Yang Shun and three or five people appeared quietly at the Golden Land Temple. After reporting, they met the abbot Fagui.

"Abbot, this is the Winter Solstice girl, the head of the Jiangdong Secretariat, the secretary of the Jiangdong Secretariat. She is fully responsible for my master. I hope she can talk to the abbot."

Yang Shun's master is the God of Wealth, and the Winter Solstice is the representative, that is, the boy who dispersed money. No one will be unable to get along with money. Especially when the Dharma returns to the ground, it requires a lot of money and goods. His enthusiasm is enough to melt the snow outside the temple. He personally welcomed the Winter Solstice into the Zen room in the backyard, ordered his disciples to serve tea, and asked himself: "The Master of the Ministry has come from thousands of miles, but has he brought good news for the monk?"

Dongshen smiled and said, "I added a thousand pieces of silk, one million pieces and five thousand stones of sesame oil before the Mahayana Buddhism. This time I donated five million pieces of silk and five thousand stones of grain to Jindi Temple."

Fagui's excitement was beyond words, and he put his hands together and said, "Good, good! I won't say much about thanks. This winter, I have a serious shortage of food and I don't know how many people are going to starve to death. With these money and food, I have the confidence to recruit soldiers. The Master of the Ministry, when the Mahayana Buddhism seized the Sohu land, today's gift will be returned thousands of times in the future."

"Right, there is no need to return it!" Dongzhi said: "But, my master wants to know when the abbot is going to raise an army?"

"Everything is ready, I'm going to take a swearing to rise up in five days!"

"Five days later? Will it be too rushed?"

"You can't wait any longer! The Wei Lord is unrighteous, the people are conservative, and the people have no food to eat. It's better to rebel and find a way out if you wait to starve to death. Now you are in a state of war, and the time is right, and the people are at your right time!"

"The abbot knows that Wei and Chu have signed an alliance in Luoyang, and the Wei army is about to return to the court. If the army is raised at this time, it may not be the best time."

Fa Gui said in surprise: "Have Chu and Wei negotiated?"

"Yuan Guang and Yuan Mulan led hundreds of thousands of soldiers in armor to fight for more than a month, but they had no choice but to fight the Chu army. They could only negotiate and establish an alliance and lost most of Yuzhou. Now is the time to be overwhelmed. Why not avoid his edge first and then make a plan?"

Fagui waved his hand and said, "Master of the Situation, I have long seen that the Wei army's claim to be powerful is just a mirror and water moon, which is not worth mentioning. Since the Chu army has won, my monk soldiers will definitely win. Whether it is Yuanguang or Yuan Mulan, as long as they dare to lead the troops, I will teach them that there will be no return!"

Dong Xie advised: "There are hundreds of Baoxianbei under Yuanguang, and the abbot thinks twice!"

"The little monk is not afraid! He has a hundred Xianbei, and I have Maitreya's protection. All disciples who believe in Mahayana can be brave and not afraid of death. Not to mention Xianbei, even a thousand Xianbei and a thousand Xianbei are not opponents!"

The winter solstice is silent.

Fa Guiteng stood up and said, "If the Master of the Ministry doesn't believe it, please follow me and see with your own eyes."

There is a martial arts practice field behind the temple, and there are iron cages next to it, with five evil wolves, with scarlet eyes and fierce eyes, obviously they have eaten by people.

Fagui took out two magic talismans and burned them, sprinkled them into a bowl full of clear water, and said, "Maitreya will come to the world, eliminate all the demons!" He took out two dark pills and put them in the water to melt.

The two disciples raised their heads and drank the talisman water, rushed into the cage without hesitation. They held short swords in their hands, only wearing short-plated monk robes, without armor or shields, and fought with the evil wolf face to face.

The evil wolf stood apart, advancing and retreating in moderation. Soon he saw the gap. A wolf rushed forward and bit a disciple's arm. His skin was blooming and blood flowed. But the disciple didn't say a word, and he stabbed the wolf's neck without saying a word. He swayed his hand and killed him immediately. Another wolf took advantage of the situation and bit his calves, swaying his head left and right, and bit off a large piece of meat. The disciple still didn't shout or scream, and pulled out the knife to slash at the wolf's neck.

The evil wolf let go and pounced forward again, stepped on the disciple's chest with both feet, pounced on him, jumped up, and bit his throat.

Before his death, the disciple waved his short sword frantically until he lost his anger. He didn't let his right hand hang down weakly, but the handle of the knife was still tightly held in his hand.

Another disciple was also covered in blood under the siege of the other three wolves, but Dongzhi found that he did not take a step back from beginning to end, his face exuded indescribable fanaticism, his eyes flashed with strange lights, and his mouth was different from the disciple who never spoke. He seemed to be muttering the spell "Maitreya protects his body, invincible", and then fought until the last moment.

The three still alive wolves ate the bodies of two disciples. The scene was terrible, but Fagui said complacently: "Master, how about it? Do my monk soldiers have a chance of winning compared to Baibaoxianbei?"

Dongzhi knew that he could not persuade him. Such a madman had actually fallen into the devil's way and could not listen to anyone's persuasion. She smiled and said, "The abbot has great supernatural powers, and it is not enough for us ordinary people to know. If you offended him before, don't blame him!"

Fagui laughed and said, "It's not a big deal for those who don't know it! As long as the Master of the Ministry delivers money and food within two months after I raise my army, I can guarantee that the Yuan family's world will come to an end!"

"Okay, the money and food will be delivered later, I'll wait for the good news!" Winter solstice's eyes rolled and said, "I see that the secret medicine that the abbot just now has is quite powerful. Can you give it a few and take it back to open your eyes to my master?"

"It's easy to say!"

Fa Gui generously gave a pack of thirty pieces. It was collected from the Winter Solstice. He said goodbye to Jindi Temple, but did not leave Fucheng, but hid in the dark.

Five days later, Fagui indeed raised the Mahayana Buddha flag in the Golden Land Temple, claiming to be the true body of Maitreya Buddha, calling himself the Mahayana Buddha, and named Fayan as the Pingmo Army Office, and Fayan as the Wanzhu Bodhisattva. He vigorously advocated the doctrine of killing people to become Buddhas. Anyone who kills one person is a one-pillar Bodhisattva, and ten people are a ten-pillar Bodhisattva, and so on. The more people you kill, the more rewards you will get. This reward not only includes money, food, land, houses, but also women.

That night, the Mahayana religion captured Fucheng County Government, killed the county magistrate and a group of clerks, opened warehouses and released grain, gathered 5,000 people, and was a huge momentum.

Jizhou vibrates.

Fa Gui set an example and married beautiful nuns from the Fucheng Nunnery as his concubines. He also rewarded all the nuns and the looted gentry and wealthy businessmen to his soldiers. His morale was greatly boosted. The next day, he led his troops north to attack Wuyi County, the county seat of Wuyi County.

The county prefect led a thousand five hundred county soldiers out of the city to fight, but found that the enemy was possessed by ghosts and braved arrows and never retreated. With just one charge, the county soldiers were defeated, captured Wuyi County, killed the prefect, and slaughtered the corpse and hung them on the top of the city for public display.

Wuyi County fell!

The Mahayana Buddhism developed to 20,000 people, and then took advantage of the victory to pursue it, and continued to go north to attack Bohai County, and soon defeated the county town. Then, they continued to attack Changle County and Wuyuan County, and controlled the four counties. The troops also expanded to 80,000 people!

Among these 80,000 people, not only are oppressed Buddhist monks, but also ordinary people who cannot survive. There are also many large aristocratic families who are dissatisfied with the court who want to take advantage of the chaos to seek benefits. Therefore, the Mahayana religion spread across the four counties and was almost unstoppable.

After hearing the news, Lu Bina, the leader of Jizhou town, hurriedly summoned his troops to attack him and encountered the main force of the Mahayana Sect in Hejian. The Pingmo Army Jushi Yan used the grain transport truck as bait to deceive the shortage of food from Jizhou to intercept him, but arranged an ambush in advance to block the Jizhou army in the valley, and set fire to burn the grain transport truck full of hay and sesame oil. For a moment, the flames illuminated the sky and covered the thick smoke for a hundred miles. The Jizhou army suffered heavy losses. Lu Bina retreated urgently and was chased by Wanzhu Bodhisattva Fayan.

In this service, the Jizhou army, known as the world's strong army, was wiped out in annihilation. Even the town leader Lu Bina was captured by Fa Jue, and then the belly was broken, the head was made into a chamber pot, and sent to Pingcheng for Yuan Yu to use.

It is said that Yuan Yu smashed the man's head chamber pot in anger, slashed several palace servants with a knife, and almost vomited blood.

Bu Tian, ​​the governor of Qingzhou, Chu State who had been on the sidelines for many years, built a platform of thought in the city, burning paper and incense to pay tribute to Lu Bina to express his condolences, and then secretly sold a large number of swords, arrows and armor to the Mahayana religion.

The wealth in war will not be white or not!

Of course, given the current friendship between Wei and Chu, these things are not marked by Chu, nor are they military standards. They are all unscrupulous white and black merchants who are jealous of money and smuggled out of the country, which should not pose much threat to the brave and warlike Wei army.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the Winter Solstice rushed back to Jinling and reported to Xu You and Zhan Wenjun the beginning and end of the Mahayana uprising, saying: "The fanaticism of the Mahayana religion is even far superior to the Baizhe in the Dumingyu period. I think the Wei Kingdom will suffer a great impact this time. However, the Mahayana religion has no tenable program, nor is it reliable. It only relies on the believers to sacrifice their lives and dare to fight and rush, so they temporarily won. Just wait for Pingcheng to react and mobilize elite soldiers and strong generals to encircle it. It won't be long before the Mahayana religion will definitely be defeated!"

"Where is the Dharma returning, can it be a great thing?"

"Although Fagui has great ambitions, he is extremely cruel, unethical, has no morality, only loves to kill people, is greedy for money and lust, controls his subordinates with power, and rewards and punishments are uneven. I think he will die at the hands of his own people sooner or later, and it will be difficult for him to accomplish great things!

Zhan Wenjun felt a little disappointed and said, "I originally wanted to lay down the chess piece of Mahayana Buddhism and cause trouble for the Wei army at the right time. Now it seems that Mahayana Buddhism is not under control and Fagui is not the right leader. Just let them cause trouble. We'd better not interfere."

Xu You agreed and said, "I think so too. I will not send the money and food that I promised to be granted. Since they occupied Jizhou and plundered the family gentry's belongings, they probably have enough money. We are not more, and we are not less, so that we will not end up being paid as military pay."

Zhan Wenjun smiled and said, "It just so happened that the Northern Wei Dynasty was busy pacifying the Mahayana religion and had no time to interfere with our attack on Yizhou. This deal finally did not lose money."

"Not bad! Luanniao is now in a uncertain place. She must be planning a conspiracy behind the scenes. The energy of the Northern Wei Dynasty was dragged down by the Mahayana sect, and she could not make a big mess alone."

"Ah?" The Winter Solstice suddenly remembered something and said, "When I was passing through Qingzhou, I seemed to hear that Bu Tian sold a lot of weapons to the Mahayana religion and secretly benefited from it..."

Xu You said helplessly: "He will make a fortune... The Winter Solstice, use the secret palace to remind him not to do such things anymore. If he is discovered by the Northern Wei Dynasty, he will send envoys to question him at that time, and the court will not be able to explain."

"promise!"
Chapter completed!
