The Prequel of Baolian Lantern Konghouyin

Yang Jian hid himself on the cloud, silently watching the black swarm of locusts under his feet.They are like fast-moving black clouds, rolling, roaring, and passing low against the ground.Wherever he went, the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and accompanied by the sound of chewing and chewing, he went up and down and jumped up and down.When the whole locust swarm finally spread its wings and flew to the next place, it had been gnawed bare and empty, not even a grass stalk was left, leaving only sticky saliva and black feces all over the mountains and plains. The green Yellow River is also polluted like a muddy pond.In the fields, there are people who want to cry but have no tears, lamenting the lack of food and clothing this year.

The disaster finally came.Yang Jian has moved to Yao Chong's mansion in Hualong with Cun Xin and strictly ordered her not to go out.He knew that Cun Xin couldn't see others being sad, so he must come to the rescue.That's all there is to it, the locusts are strange, they don't fly to the richer and more fertile places in the east, they just linger in this bitter cold place in the Western Qiang, with the help of strange winds from time to time, it seems that someone is hiding in the dark manipulate their whereabouts.Yang Jian has inquired about the land of the mountain god here, but no one has noticed the evil spirit, so he is still puzzled.

Cun Xin became increasingly restless.Seeing that the locusts have eaten Kuozhou into a piece of white land, there will be no harvest this year. The people are miserable, and some people have already started to flee the famine to live in other places. If this is the case, it will be even more difficult to find Liu Che's reincarnation. Met him once.Fortunately, all the soldiers and civilians in Kuozhou were mobilized to kill those who were culled, those who set fire to them, and those who buried them. Yao Chong asked the holy order and ordered the treasury to be opened wide. All victims of the disaster can exchange locust corpses The relief food was gathered in the government office and burned.

Cun Xin was surprised and said: "What is the use of this insect corpse? Can it be used to feed livestock?" Yang Jian smiled: "The folks often bury it on the spot to prevent water leakage or trouble. This is not enough. Thoroughly, there will often be another locust plague in the next year. Collect them and burn them together. Not only will the weeds be wiped out, but the government will also know how many places have been affected and the extent of the disaster. As for the food, it is used for relief anyway.”

Cun Xin nodded, suddenly blissful in his heart, and said with a smile: "Why don't I go and distribute the relief food with the yamen servants!" Yang Jian raised his eyebrows, spread his fan and smiled and said, "You want to use the food to check the palms of the victims nearby. Don't you have the sky-reaching pattern?" Cun Xin tilted her head, smiled without saying a word.But Yang Jian said: "It's not impossible, but if you visit that person, don't disturb him, you'd better come and talk to me first."

Cun Xin gave him a blank look: "You have a lot of rules." Seeing that Yang Jian was still talking, Cun Xin hurriedly said: "If you can save it, I won't act rashly."

Yang Jian put away the ink fan and got up and said: "It's getting late, I'll go to the front to see Yao Chong, and I'll tell you about the rations. Even if he agrees, you must not..." Cun Xin cut off Said: "You are so nagging! If you are not here, I will not let A-Jiao come out to meet you."

Yang Jian said with a smile: "I mean, feeding food is a labor-intensive thing, you should take care of yourself and don't be too tired." Cun Xin smiled and pushed him out: "You are more troublesome than my mother when you talk! Go make arrangements for me." Yang Jian laughed and went out without mentioning it.

Since then, Cun Xin has been very busy. Every day before dawn, she would go out with the secretary office of the yamen, and go to the Ximen Inner Grain Depot to meet Mao.When Yao Chong saw Mrs. Yang go out in person, he also sent his family members to accompany him, expressing his sympathy with the enemy. The people all admired and praised him.Only half a month has passed, and countless soldiers and civilians around have come, but they still can't find a person with the sky-reaching pattern on his palm.Yang Jian didn't allow Cun Xin to go out of Hualong, so the dragon girl became more and more anxious.

One day, Yang Jian had some free time, so he went to inspect the grain depot in person, but Cun Xin was nowhere to be seen in the courtyard. When he turned around, he saw her half squatting under the shade of a tree, surrounded by several children.The youngest of these children are three or four years old, and the oldest are only seven or eight years old. Most of them are boys. They are at an active age, chasing and playing around Cunxin. , rubbing his forehead with one hand, with tears in his eyes, sobbing with his mouth curled up.

I only heard Cun Xin softly say: "Good girl, auntie rubs it for you, can you stop crying?" The little girl just shed tears, twisted her body and cried, "They didn't play with me, and they knocked me down , only bullying me as a girl!" Cun Xin pursed her lips and smiled, turned her wrist, and a wax gourd candy had already been melted, and she handed it to her, "They didn't mean it, I'll take you to play with it, Is it okay?" The girl laughed through her tears, stretched out her hand to take the candy and said, "It's just the two of us, what can we do?"

Cun Xin was about to answer when she saw Yang Jian beside her out of the corner of her eye, she was overjoyed and hurriedly stood up.After squatting for a long time, she suddenly got up, and when her eyes went dark, she staggered on her feet.Yang Jian strode up to hold her arm, Cun Xin had recovered, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" The girl next to her saw a stranger, and hurriedly ran away shyly to play.

"Yao Yuanzhi is so busy with things, please let me come here to check the food balance and distribution situation for him." Yang Jian waved his ink fan, "I am also busy these days, and you even leave early and return late, so you can't take care of yourself." look at you."

Cun Xin met Yang Jian's eyes, it was autumn, but it was still hot, but there was no sweat on his forehead, his focused eyes were full of warmth, and Cun Xin's face blushed when he saw it: "In front of the child, don't talk nonsense..." Yang Jian brushed her temple hair for her, and said with a smile, "Is there any clue to your matter?"

Cun Xin shook her head: "I've seen quite a few strangers these days, and some of them have been here two or three times. I've seen all kinds of palm lines, but there's no Tongtian pattern."

Yang Jian smiled and opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and the visitor hurriedly walked up to him and said to Yang Jian, "Mr. Come up. Master Yao is currently trying two robbery cases, and he really can't get away, please go and have a look."

Yang Jian smiled helplessly at Cun Xin, and turned to leave, but Cun Xin grabbed his wrist and said, "I'll go with you." Yang Jian was taken aback, and was about to find a reason to refuse, but he heard Cun Xin whisper in his ear: "These few days I have seen people from Hexi, Hedong, Heyin, and Changmu, but there are few people from Garang, and you don't allow me to go far away..." When Yang Jian turned his head to look, he saw the book office first. Looking down at his feet, he just turned a deaf ear, then smiled silently, nodded in acquiescence.

When we arrived at Ga Rang, it was almost evening, and the left-behind yamen servants saw that the county had sent someone, and they were busy leading the way.The yamen servant was very talkative, and told all about the whole story along the way.

It turned out that two foreign monks came to the town today, and when they saw people burning insect corpses, they also helped to set up a fire and collect firewood. Unlike the Northern Buddhism in Longxi, or the Yongzhongben religion in Tubo, he kept chanting "Ahura... Mazda", so someone secretly reported to the county captain Lu Huaishen.

When Lu Huaishen arrived, these two monks had already gathered hundreds of people, and they seemed to be about to open the altar to give lectures. Among them, the tall and bearded one was sitting on the high platform among the crowd, with his eyes closed and his knees crossed, chanting, while the small monk with delicate features A large bunch of thatch is being distributed to the onlookers, no matter men, women, old or young, a small handful will be given to those who stretch out their hands.Not long after the distribution was over, I saw the bearded monk put his palms together and recited:

"Yeye, my body was given by Huo De.

When using Huo Ji, it is allowed to be like.

When the star enters Xu, it goes with the fire.

The fire comes out of the morning and stretches out with the stars.

The five lucks are only fire, and the ancestors are all yang.

Su Zhuang uses the light, and the light will heal after a thousand years.

Shen Baoyu returns, and lives in the fire room.

If Yu You doesn't do anything, Yan Tu will prosper forever. "

The monk's voice was not high, but it seemed that there was a collision of gold and stone, and his face was devout and solemn.After he finished reciting, he stretched his arms to the sky and shouted, "Even if there are all kinds of disasters, they will be nothing if they are burned away!", only to see the flames "shooting" on the firewood mountain that had been set up in advance, and the sound of beeping, beeping, and beeping. Accompanied by thick smoke billowing like black clouds, it flew away into the sky.The surrounding villagers hurriedly threw the thatch in their hands into the fire, watched the chai mountain roast hundreds of thousands of insect corpses, and were amazed at the magic of the monk.

This Lu Huaishen secretly thought it was not good, so he suspected that these two people belonged to a cult and came here to preach.Guide is adjacent to Tubo, Buddhism and Taoism are mixed, Hu and Han disputes continue, it is already extremely difficult to deal with, adding a "fire god" to the locust plague, one carelessness can cause great changes.Seeing the large number of people here, he didn't dare to act rashly, so he hurriedly sent someone to report to Inspector Yao Chong urgently, asking for reinforcements.

The bearded monk here shook his robes and stood up when he saw the crowd worshiping him, and said loudly: "This plague of locusts is caused by the evil god Ahriman. I have seen it with my own eyes. Only Ahura, the great god of light, can sweep away the poisonous insects and clear up the universe." , let us return to the peace and tranquility of Flashkad!"

Lu Huaishen gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Where did the monstrous monk come from, who speaks lies to confuse people and people's hearts, and you still won't take it down with me!" Hearing this, all the yamen servants hurriedly surrounded him with their knives and swords drawn.At this time, the square in front of the town was in chaos, the spectators fled in all directions, the peddlers packed their belongings in a hurry, and the women hid in the shops protecting their children.A yamen servant looked at the little foreign monk who was not on his guard, holding a chain around his head and covering his head, but when the monk pressed his left hand, he opened his mouth, and a flame rushed towards the front door, burning the yamen servant and running away with his head in his arms, killing pigs Yang shouted: "Fan monk is amazing!"

The two monks tore through the line of defense, seized the road and fled. They didn't want to run two steps, but were blocked by one person.When I looked up, I saw Yang Jian standing firmly on the ground like a nail, shaking the ink fan in his hand, but his face was calm and breezy.

The author has something to say: There are many bugs. Zoroastrianism, also known as Persian Zoroastrianism, has declined in the mainland in the sixth century. This method of restraint, or spread in Xinjiang for a generation, is unlikely to spread to Guide, where Tibetan Buddhism is dominant.Still the same sentence, if you know how to do it, please skip it directly, everything is floating clouds, floating clouds~
