Naruto Puppet Master

In the White Horse Temple, in the abbot's Zen courtyard, a middle-aged monk reported respectfully like a young monk: "Abbott, Dong Zhuo is going crazy. He has completely cut off his own chance of survival. Those who explain the teaching have begun to move. Well, I’ll wait and see what to do.”

"Isn't the White Horse Temple closed? Why bother with this?" the young abbot said calmly.

"But we are in Luoyang! The city of Luoyang will probably become a whirlpool of humanity in the future, and Dong Zhuo, who stirred up this whirlpool with one hand, is also in front of us."

"Brother Abbot, please don't forget that we closed the mountain last year when people were going up the mountain."

The middle-aged monk said worriedly: "Although we didn't meet each other at the time, it's impossible that Dong Zhuo didn't know our attitude."

"Originally, he had some concerns, but now, junior brother, I can't understand whether he is really cruel because of giving up or crazy because of force."

"If he goes crazy and besieges White Horse Temple, what should we do?"

"If we really want soldiers to surround White Horse Temple, then even if he is destined, just give him a Buddhist scripture." The young abbot said still calmly.

"This", the middle-aged monk was very surprised when he heard this. He would not think that giving a Buddhist scripture was really just a Buddhist scripture. The abbot brother in front of him made it clear that if Dong Zhuo really surrounded the White Horse Temple, he would give him a long-lasting Dharma. It means to eliminate disaster.

"If that's the case, abbot, why didn't you send him away last year instead of sealing off the mountain to avoid it?" the middle-aged monk asked in confusion.

"At the beginning, all the Taoist monks from the Zhongyuan Taoist Sect had already come to say hello. When the Buddhist sect first came, I couldn't refuse, so I had no choice but to close the mountain and end the matter."

"But if Dong Zhuo dares to surround the White Horse Temple, and we cannot attack him at will, then naturally we don't need to take into account any comradeship. Of course, the inheritance of the sect is more important." The young abbot said lightly.

"Anyway, I think this Dong Zhuo is a decent person. Even if he cannot cultivate the way of Buddha and Bodhisattva, he can still cultivate the way of Arhat and Dharma Protector. Giving him away does not mean it is an insult to Buddhism."

"Brother Abbot wants to cross Dong Zhuo." The middle-aged monk said in surprise.

"No, it won't work in this life." The young monk shook his head and said: "In order to delay the rise of Buddhism, those people in Chanjiao did not hesitate to trigger a war on humanity and set off a bloody storm. Dong Zhuo, as the first chess piece to move the world, Those people will not let him go."

"At this time, my Buddhist sect has just begun to flourish. I am not going to start a big war, but I should stay in hiding and take charge."

"The poor monk just planted a chess piece for him and waited for the future."

"A person like Dong Zhuo, whose human destiny is entangled with cause and effect, will not be a simple person even if he is reincarnated in the future."

"And our Buddhist Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is here in the underworld. It is very easy for reincarnated people to awaken the seeds of my Dharma. When the time comes, there will naturally be fellow disciples to come and guide them."

"It can be regarded as adding another Arhat protector to our Buddhist sect." The young man said lightly.

"I see, senior brother has foresight." The middle-aged monk said with admiration.While he was still attached to the White Horse Temple, his senior brother, the abbot, had already begun to consider the interests of the entire Buddhist sect as a reference.

"No wonder Senior Brother was sent as the abbot of White Horse Temple."

"Then how does the abbot brother plan to reply to the person who explains the teaching?" After confirming his brother's purpose, the middle-aged monk asked.

After all, even though he was not poor at the beginning, he did promise the Taoist Baima Temple not to interfere in this change of humanity. Even if he knew that they were targeting Buddhism, he still said that if the time was not available, he could only lurk.

"But if you regret it later, those who explain the teachings are not easy to talk to." The middle-aged monk thought solemnly.

"What's your reply? The poor monk only agreed to seal the mountain for ten years when Dong Zhuo came to find him." The young monk said calmly: "The poor monk will seal the mountain. As for other things, it has nothing to do with the poor monk."

"How can we cover up the matter of teaching the Dharma?" the middle-aged monk said again.

"There is no need to cover it up. Isn't there an abandoned disciple from the master academy who came from Xihe Niuzhou next to Dong Zhuo? Just let him take over." The young monk said calmly.

"Ah! Is that guy willing?" the middle-aged monk said in surprise.

"We are both Buddhist disciples, so why don't we want to do something important to Buddhism?" the young abbot said calmly: "Abandoning disciples from the temple does not mean that we are traitors to Buddhism."

"There are thousands of Buddhist teachings, and there are thousands of races of people. There are always opinions about what is appropriate and inappropriate for those who truly teach. How can we treat all Buddhist disciples according to the rules of other Buddhist lineages."

"Anyone who practices true Buddhism is my Buddhist disciple."

"Uh, yes, senior abbot." Looking at the abbot's incomprehensible tone, the middle-aged monk knew enough not to say anything more about it.

...............

"Fellow Taoist brothers, Qianjizi has succeeded. It's time for our disciples to start taking action." In the main hall of a beautiful mountain peak, an old man with a fairy-like Taoist spirit said to other Taoists with the same different styles.

"good…….."

Just one month after Dong Zhuo kidnapped Princess Wannian in court and returned home, Yuan Shao of Bohai and Cao Cao of Jiao County simultaneously issued documents claiming that they had obtained the blood letters of the three princes and the emperor, asking the righteous men of the world to mobilize troops to serve the king.

For a time, the whole world was shaken by the news.

..........

In Luoyang City, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was many times more strict than before, Li Ru, who was dressed in a plain robe, reported to Dong Zhuohui in a deep voice: "... Now there are 18 people from all walks of life who have responded."

"They are all powerful people from aristocratic families, not to mention those who already hold official positions. Even those with white bodies like Cao Cao will probably disperse their wealth to gather troops. I'm afraid it will be formed after three months. Eighteen princes besieged Luoyang."

"When do we expect them to gather together?" Dong Zhuo, the leader, said calmly.

"If the immortals don't intervene, it is estimated that the combined army will gather outside Hulao Pass in about three months." Li Ru said in a deep voice: "If the immortals intervene, it is estimated that it will take at most one month. In a month and a half, the coalition forces will approach Luoyang and imprison Hulao."

"What about our preparations?" Dong Zhuo asked again.

"Most of the food and grass have been collected, which is enough to last our army for about a year."

"Ordnance has also prepared a batch of maximum equipment, which can completely allow the Xiliang Army and Bingzhou Army to complete most of their equipment changes again." Li Ru said in a deep voice.

"Where are the aristocratic families! Where are the immortals and casual cultivators!" Dong Zhuo asked again.

At this time, a Xie Dao with a face as thin as skin and bones and wearing a pale robe said sternly: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, as long as the earth immortals don't take action, Pindao guarantees that those immortals will not interfere."

The Prime Minister’s army. "

"Well, let's leave it to Master Bai Gu. You only need to stop the people underground. If the Earth Immortal appears, then there will be other ways to stop them." Dong Zhuo said calmly.

Although there was a military killing formation, Dong Zhuo also told Lu Bu and others from the beginning that if they really wanted to take action, they would reduce their power. For this reason, they had almost the same power as the Golden Core Realm.

Part of it is hiding one's clumsiness, and the other part is also to avoid completely falling out with some cultivating sects.

Only in this way can they fight to the end. If the person they support cannot defeat Dong Zhuo, there is still the possibility of negotiation.

Otherwise, if the military killing array, which is comparable to the attack of the Earth Immortal, is struck without hesitation, all the other Taoists accompanying the army will be reduced to ashes. Who knows if there are one or two direct disciples among them, so Dong Zhuo I think it's better to leave it to other evil cultivators.

Of course, if even the Earth Immortals appear later, it means that there is no room for change. Dong Zhuo will naturally not hold back, and will definitely kill them all.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Dong Zhuo asked Lu Bu, Hua Xiong and others on the other side.

"Everything is at the Prime Minister's command." Everyone said in unison.

"Okay." Looking at the fearless generals under his command, Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "Fengxian took a lot of good things from the emperor's mausoleum before, including countless gold and silver treasures. I have asked him to exorcise evil spirits. Well, then take the third layer back and divide it among the soldiers! Count on the settlement expenses that I, Dong Zhuo, gave them."

"Of the remaining seven floors, one will be given to Fengxian's Bingzhou County, and the rest will be given to them after the battle is over."

Of course, Dong Zhuo doesn't care about these external things now. It's true that they can be used.

And as those who were rewarded, it was too late for them to rejoice!How could you object?Although Lu Bu wanted to take one more layer, everyone knew in their hearts that he had put in a lot of effort.

Dig the emperor's tomb!Even the always bold Li Ji and others trembled a little after hearing this, but Lu Bu did it for Dong Zhuo without blinking an eye. Such a great achievement, even if Dong Zhuo didn't distinguish between them, they had nothing to say, let alone Now Lu Bu just takes one more layer.

Lu Bu was also happy. Although it only took one more level than Li Jie and others, and although Li Jie and others had never made any contribution from the beginning to the end, in Lu Bu's eyes, he had done all those treasures before. Dong Zhuo dug it.

It was not just an ordinary task, but also another petition. Before, Lu Bu only hoped that Dong Zhuo would not forget to give him a share. But now, it is not only a share for him, but even more than Hua Xiong and Li urged them to do. One more layer, does this mean that he, Lu Bu, is already more trustworthy in Dong Zhuo's eyes than Hua Xiong, Li Ji and others?

This recognition is even more gratifying for Lu Bu, who has always been looked down upon by Li Ji and others as a direct descendant of Xiliang's army and prime minister.

Therefore, as soon as Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, Li Ji and others responded in unison: "Thank you Prime Minister for the reward."

"Well, in addition, before, when Feng Xian was at Mang Mountain in Zuibei, Niu Fu and Xu Rong were also busy in Chang'an. Emperor Wu's tomb was opened and a lot of lost and good things were obtained. You can each take them when you go back. Go back and study one copy.”

"For you to lead the army in big battles, it is also very beneficial to practice on the battlefield. Moreover, I have deliberately left some secret techniques of the left in it. Although it is not possible for such people to become immortals, it will not be possible if they really master it. Just like now, once you encounter a cultivator when you are alone, you can easily be killed.

"Thank you, Prime Minister." Everyone thanked him again.

Dong Zhuo said again: "That's it, Feng will stay first, and the others can go back and organize themselves! Maintain the stability of Luoyang for me during this period. After three days, you will set out to guard the eight passes of Luoyang for me."

"Yes, Prime Minister." Everyone bowed and said with some eagerness.Not only because of the wealth that Dong Zhuo promised to share before, but also because of the good things that Dong Zhuo said were suspected of being secret.

"Fengxian, foster father, I have something for you to handle." Dong Zhuo said calmly to Lu Bu as he looked at the generals leaving excitedly.

"The foster father only gives orders, and the child has his own duty." Lu Bu had some guesses in his mind after Dong Zhuo secretly left him behind.

After all, Dong Zhuo has indeed left some things to Li Ru and Lu Bu over the past year. Even if Li Ru is responsible for most of them, Lu Bu will actually step in to help, especially when Li Ru feels that he is in some difficulties. , Lu Bu's martial arts skills are worth guaranteeing.

Therefore, upon hearing that Dong Zhuo wanted to leave him alone, Lu Bu had some speculations and preparations in his mind.

"Yes." Looking at Lu Bu who looked submissive and obedient, Dong Zhuo smiled with satisfaction in his heart. "Lu Bu can indeed be controlled. As long as he is stronger than him, he will not be harsh to him. He has a foreign character and is actually not difficult to get along with and recover.

On the contrary, as time goes by, Lu Bu, who is truly impressed, will become extremely loyal. "

Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu's loyal thinker, felt a little relieved and responded with a calm tone: "Your brother-in-law Niu Fu, Xu Rong, Duan Wei and others are already doing it, but someone in Luoyang still needs to do it. I hope you come."

"What to do?" Lu Bu asked curiously.

On the other side, Li Ru's face was trembling and pale.

"The aristocratic family is not ours, and they are not on the same side as us." Dong Zhuo said quietly: "And this battle is very critical. It affects whether we can get what we want in the end, so there is no room for loss."

"|At this critical moment, it is impossible for me to leave any hidden dangers in Luoyang City, so those who are extremely closely connected with the Guandong family will be dealt with." Dong Zhuo's faint words revealed unprecedented murderous intent and coldness. .

An unprecedented bloody atmosphere came oncoming.

Lu Bu chuckled softly and said with bloodshot eyes: "Don't worry, foster father, my son will never be disappointed by his foster father."

"Well, Wenyou will give you the list later. Don't let anything slip through the net. Just sacrifice them all to the military flag!" Dong Zhuo said quietly.

"Yes." Lu Bu and Li Ru both nodded in agreement.

"Are you going to do it tomorrow?" Unlike Lu Bu, Li Ru said with a somewhat pale face.

"Tomorrow Hua Xiong will accompany the Prime Minister to the White Horse Temple to fulfill his wish." Dong Zhuo said quietly: "The Prime Minister will not come back within three days of this trip."

"After the truth is gone, you can take action after sealing the city gate!"

"I hope that when the truth comes back, Luoyang City will be cleaner."

"Don't worry, Prime Minister." Looking at Dong Zhuo's deep eyes, Li Ru, who didn't know about this before, suddenly felt a little hesitant, suppressed the hesitation in his heart and said in a deep voice: "After Prime Minister comes back, Luoyang City will definitely be extremely pure. .”

"Well, I can rest assured that you are doing the work." Dong Zhuo nodded and waved his hand and said nothing.
