Rebirth of the Son Raiders

Chapter 141 The Monk

For Qudu, these monks brought not only food and medicinal materials, but also hope.

The Northern Territory, which had fallen into despair due to successive tribulations and blows, finally had some vitality.

The monks in Liangjing have always been knowledgeable, and there are many monks who know medicine because of helping the world. This time, in order to treat the refugees in Qudu, Huayin Temple invited nearly 200 monks from the surrounding Buddhist temples, and monks who know medicine accounted for more than half of them. .

This is still the case when some monks sent supplies to Hanyang County.

In order to resettle the refugees as soon as possible, they did not enter the city, but directly set up a stone stove for boiling water and medicine at the gate of the city.

Lin Yanhong sent government soldiers to help them successfully complete the fortification. Some doctors and doctors who originally wanted to save lives and heal the wounded outside the city also came outside the city together and joined the ranks of monks.

Lin Yanhong and Li Jingcheng met Master Hong Chou of Huayin Temple. He was the younger brother of Master Hong Xu, the abbot. Although he didn't know about Prince Yu's son, he still remembered that Lin Yanhong lived in Huayin Temple for a while.

The young man back then was enough to make people's eyes shine, but today's Lin Changshi is even more charming and unforgettable.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, benefactor Lin is fine." Master Hong Chou has just reached the age of knowing his fate, because he is a monk, he looks very strong, if he is not shaved and wearing monk robes, he looks like a general in the army.

After saluting, Lin Yanhong said: "Master You Lao came all the way to Qudu, we are ashamed to let the common people suffer so much."

"Benefactor Lin, don't blame yourself. It's a blessing that the current situation in Qudu is like this. Whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it cannot be stopped by other people's external forces. We can only do our best."

Lin Yanhong nodded and continued: "Master, there are currently 21 doctors in the city who are willing to go outside the city, with Dr. Li as the head. I wonder if there is a unified arrangement on the master's side?"

"Benefactor Lin, don't worry, the poor monk has asked Junior Brother Hong Qian to communicate with him."

Lin Yanhong looked at the monks making preparations in the distance, and saw that they all covered their faces with a large scarf, leaving only their eyes to see.

The big towel is bulging, and it seems to be filled with things. If you see ordinary people dressed like this on weekdays, others may think it is funny.

Seeing Lin Yanhong's doubts, Master Hong Chou explained: "This is an old method. Charcoal is ground into powder, and medicinal powders such as wormwood and mountain indigo are added, and sewn into a face towel to cover the mouth and nose, which can prevent the doctor from being infected. poison."

——It turns out that this strange-looking face towel has such miraculous effects!

Lin Yanhong wondered if it would be possible to equip everyone, at least those outside the city, with such a "baby". After thinking about it, it was indeed a huge effort, mainly due to the scarcity of medicinal materials, and it might not be possible to achieve it in the short term.

Seeing the regretful expression on Lin Yanhong's face, Master Hong Chou knew what he was thinking: "It's not difficult to make this thing, and charcoal powder alone is also effective. Donor Lin can make the people in the city prepare their own."

When Lin Yanhong heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately asked the people around him to ask the monk for specific methods.

Master Hong Chou saw that he arranged things in a clear and orderly manner, with the unique demeanor of a long history, but also found that his face was pale when he was in a vigorous state, so he couldn't help sighing in his heart: Is it possible Is it a person who is exhausted and can't escape the exhaustion?

Thinking of this, he said softly: "Master Wujue was not able to come with us this time, so I asked the poor monk to convey to Donor Lin. Master Wujue asked Donor Lin to take care of your health and don't overwork yourself. It's too late to regret it." Well, you must know the principle of the long flow of water."

Lin Yanhong was listening carefully to what Master Wujue asked Master Hongchou to give, and he couldn't help being stunned when he heard this.

Li Jingcheng, who was standing beside him, also frowned when he heard this sentence.

——Master Wujue's words are clearly admonishing Lin Yanhong!

"Is Master Wujue okay?" Lin Yanhong came to his senses at this time, always felt that Master Hongchou looked a little strange, so he asked Master Wujue.

"Master Uncle is very old. He has been traveling in two places in recent years. In addition, this time he went to the surrounding area to look for medicine monks. He was so unbearable that he just fell ill. When we left, he was already better, but he couldn't get up yet."

Originally, Master Hongchou didn't intend to tell Lin Yanhong the truth about them, but he thought that since Master Wujue told him to talk to Lin Yanhong, he must hope that Master Lin would pay attention to it, so he told them about Master Wujue's illness.

Master Wujue is a descendant of the Yonghuang clan, with the soul of barbarians in his body, and his body has been very healthy for decades.

In the past, he was in Wushan, where the scenery was beautiful and life was carefree. As his twin brother, the first emperor died of illness early on, but Master Wujue became stronger and stronger.

Until a few years ago, His Majesty was troubled by nightmares and suffered from insomnia. In order to reassure himself, he frequently summoned Master Wujue to Beijing, and it was winter every year—the worst time of the year.

But that is both a nephew and an official, the master of the world, which concerns the entire Liangzhou, and cannot be relaxed at all.

I couldn't see anything in the first few times, but after a few years, the traveling between these two places has gradually become a troublesome cause of illness.

This time, Emperor Yongxin bloodbathed the king's tent, causing chaos in Yongzhou, and even the border of Liangzhou was miserable.

Master Wujue experienced three dynasties and saw countless natural disasters and man-made disasters. He has experience in this matter. As soon as the news of Yongzhou reached Yunshui, he immediately visited the surrounding Buddhist temples, invited monks who knew medicine to go to Qudu, and raised food and medicine at the same time. , for use in the northern border.

If it wasn't for physical reasons, he might have come to Qudu together.

After years of fatigue and advanced age, even Master Wujue can't resist the attack of illness now, let alone people like Lin Yanhong who are born with inadequacies and sickly in childhood, let alone squandering recklessly with their youth, until something really happens. , is really late.

Lin Yanhong and Li Jingcheng were shocked when they heard the news that Master Wu Jue was ill.

Although Master Hongchou said that Master Wujue was awake when they left, they were still worried and asked for some details again and again, Master Hongchou answered them one by one.

Master Wujue raised Li Jingcheng and was also Lin Yanhong's savior. His status in their hearts was no less than that of their parents.

Even when he was sick, he remembered to persuade Lin Yanhong to take care of his health... This kind of concern made people feel extremely tearful.

When Lin Yanhong returned to the mansion that day, he immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Wushan. On the one hand, he directly asked about the situation of Master Wujue, and on the other hand, he also said that he would take good care of himself, and would not take care of his body just because he was young, so as to comfort Wujue. Master's heart.

Li Jingcheng accompanied him to write the letter, and when he saw that he wrote "guarantee", he silently rejoiced in his heart that there were still people who could listen to what he had to say.

He waited for Lin Yanhong to fold the letter, and put his arms around him from behind.

Lin Yanhong felt Li Jingcheng's heartbeat and body temperature coming from behind, and his heart, which was still a little worried and depressed, gradually relaxed.

"Don't worry, Qu will be fine, Master Wujue will be fine...I will be fine too."

……

If it was said that the house was leaking and it was raining continuously, then after the monk from Yunshui arrived in Qudu, everything seemed to be developing in a good direction.

The monks are sympathetic to others, and they don't care about personal safety and loss. They wear special face scarves almost all day long to help the refugees outside the city.

With the joint efforts of the government soldiers and the craftsmen in the city, temporary low houses were built inside and outside the city to shelter the refugees.

The doctors and monks in the city, who also wore face towels, boiled medicinal materials and hot water on the stone stoves outside the city to give medicine and cleanse the sick refugees, so as to ensure that they could recuperate in a relatively clean environment.

Although the epidemic situation in the northern border was not eliminated immediately, it was not likely to continue to deteriorate.

The reinforcements and food from the east were delivered one after another, and the Zhenyuan army rushed to Nanling immediately. The food brought by King Hui's fief further relieved the urgent need of Qudu.

Except that the grain and grass escorted by Beijing had not arrived at the border, at least there was good news every day, instead of despair day by day.

As a commoner, of course they were rejoicing, but Lin Yanhong couldn't help frowning as he took the letterhead from Beijing and looked at the Di Bao.

——It's unreasonable that these people can still act like this at such an urgent moment!

Li Jingcheng was the first to get the news from King Yu's Mansion staying in Beijing Zhongying Yingwei, and showed it to Lin Yanhong, but Lin Yanhong still had hope, and hoped that Jingzhong could give an answer and response as soon as possible when the northern border was in danger.

However, there has been a round of debate on the matter of all grain collection on the spot, East Dacang or Jingcang.

In the end, it was King Hui who took the initiative to invite Ying, saying that the Zhenyuan Army and Dongdacang were ready at any time, and Beijing and China reluctantly "reached an agreement" to allocate grain to the north with Dongdacang as the main and Jingdacang as the auxiliary.

During this period, the censor impeached Lin Yanhong for doing nothing in Pingyang. When the war broke out, Pingwu had no food available, which was a heinous crime.

What is the situation in Pingwu and Hanyang? It is not uncommon in Beijing and China. The impeachment of Lin Yanhong at this time is simply trying to put the border in trouble.

Although Emperor Liang supported Lin Changshi, who was personally chosen by him, and ignored the impeachment papers, he finally listened to the opinions of the officials and sent an imperial envoy to escort the grain and grass to Qudu, and he would stay there later. , "Assist" Lin Changshi.

Lin Yanhong's so-called "second prince's party" is not human on both sides.

He has nothing to do with the second prince, and the other party naturally knows that Lin Yanhong is not his own, so he will not help.

The second prince even planned to use Lin Yanhong as a target to attract the attention of other princes in order to preserve his true strength and protect his people.

As for those who think that Lin Yanhong has been linked with the second prince, they will not believe their "eyes". They only know that with the degree of Lin Yanhong's favor from His Majesty, in time, he will surely rise to the top. If he can't use it for himself, then he should get rid of it as soon as possible. In order to avoid long nights and dreams.

The imperial envoy who escorted the food and grass could not be settled for a long time, so the food and grass naturally had to wait.

After going back and forth like this for several rounds, the candidates were finally settled, and the food in Beijing Dacang could finally go on the road.

Compared to the speedy and timely arrival of Monk Yunshui and King Hui's Zhenyuan Army, things in Beijing came surprisingly slowly.

It can be said that if we really want to wait alone for Beijing to come to help, the northern border may have been reduced to a purgatory on earth at this moment, and the lives of the people will be ruined.

"You recognize the imperial envoy who came this time."
