lucky son

Regardless of how awkward and tangled the atmosphere at the generals' banquet was, Meng Hui, who was standing in the middle of the courtyard with a group of monks, also had a very helpless expression.

——There is no other reason, but because the gatekeeper of Yuxia didn't pay much attention to the arrival of him, Xuanzhen's national teacher, the courtyard assigned to him was remote and narrow, and more importantly... the quality was not so good.

Although judging from the total number of 30 people, there are very few people who secretly came to listen to Meng Hui's evening class with the monks of Anguo Temple, but even one out of hundreds of people would gather in the courtyard without any place to stay. .

It was hard to find the residence of the national teacher, and most of the people were unwilling to return without success. Fortunately, this group of soldiers was exceptionally agile. Since the courtyard could not be squeezed in, they looked around and focused on the loess courtyard wall that was as tall as a person. .

However, everyone never expected that this courtyard was very dilapidated and in disrepair for a long time. When the courtyard wall was seized by layers of soldiers, it didn't last long before it collapsed neatly, leaving them nothing behind. feelings.

When the courtyard wall collapsed, both the soldiers in the courtyard and the "culprit" on the wall were stunned. Even Meng Hui and the monks were forced to suspend evening classes, not knowing how to clean up the mess.

In short, no matter what, this Master Xuanzhen, who was proclaimed as the national teacher by the emperor, "fame to fame" in Yuxia Pass.This surprising and funny incident spread like a whirlwind throughout the Yuxia Pass, and the boundless "magic power" displayed by the national master Xuanzhen when he chanted sutras was quickly known to everyone.

The 30 army is more than double the garrison at Yuxia Pass, and the unanimous opinion of the 30 people cannot be doubted.

But what is regrettable is that since the top of the wall was crushed, Master Xuanzhen was arranged together with the monks into the large courtyard near the Duhu Yamen, and there were guards patrolling and guarding for twelve hours, and no one was allowed to approach easily—— After all, being crushed by a courtyard wall was enough to embarrass Chen Chuan, and he definitely didn't want to experience it again!

Human beings are probably like this, the more they can't get it, the more they want to get it.The defenders of Yuxia Pass listened to the hype of the reinforcements, and they were very eager to feel the feeling of being baptized by the magic power of the national teacher. What's more, the reinforcements marched hard for several months, but they faced off against the Huns in Yuxia Pass for so long , Sleeping on the bed every night, is also physically and mentally exhausted, okay?

Since everyone works equally hard, they deserve the same benefits!

As the saying goes, the will of the people is strong.Hearing too much nagging from the soldiers under his command, even the guards were gradually brainwashed. They quietly went to Chen Chuan for a meeting to discuss, and finally decided to invite Xuan Zhen Guoshi and other masters to hold a Dharma meeting in Yuxia Pass.

If Xuan Zhen's name is not worthy of the name, the "demon wind" caused by him will naturally dissipate; and if the other party does have this ability, then it is also possible for them to relieve the tense spirits of the soldiers and improve their morale. It's a good thing.

Faced with the request of the officers and soldiers of Yuxiaguan, Meng Hui naturally responded.Such a good thing that comes to your door to earn your reputation, only a fool would refuse!

In fact, speaking of it, the soothing effect of mental power is not omnipotent.Whether it is effective or not depends on two conditions: the first is the number of listeners, and the second is the willpower and demand of the listeners.

Everything has two aspects of "quantity" and "quality". The former condition means "quantity", while the latter condition is equivalent to "quality".

If you use force on one person, Meng Hui's mental power can quickly hypnotize the other person, but if you spread the target to hundreds or even thousands of people, the effect will naturally be greatly reduced. This is the effect of "quantity".Similarly, if a person has strong willpower, it will be difficult to be affected by the spiritual power of others, and if a person is happy and satisfied, he will not need too much comfort from spiritual power. This is equivalent to changing the value from 97 to 98. It won't make much change, but when the value jumps from 0 to 1, it is a "qualitative" leap from scratch.

Meng Hui's great success at the Buddhist banquet held by the royal family was due to the fact that there were not many dignitaries who were eligible to participate in the Buddhist banquet, and there were only a few hundred of them, which were completely within Meng Hui's control; Hui can get a good response when facing hundreds or even thousands of people, because the soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, precarious, and desperately eager for comfort.

Of course, since Meng Hui took the initiative to use this method to gain his reputation, Meng Hui also thought about it and thought he was competent.Otherwise, I would chant scriptures on the stage to cheer myself up, and the audience would look indifferent and indifferent. Even Meng Hui, a thick-skinned defender, would probably be too embarrassed to end it.

Since you want to pretend to be aggressive, you must pretend to be successful, otherwise you will become a fool and be ridiculed by others.

However, although it was decided to hold the Dharma conference, the guards of Yuxia Gate did not understand how the Dharma Dharma conference should be held, and neither did Meng Hui himself.At this time, the monks of Anguo Temple began to display their value.

Before leaving Beijing, the eighteen monks were told by Abbot Puhui that Master Xuanzhen grew up deep in the mountains and ignored common affairs. One is to rely on the skills of practicing martial arts since childhood to ensure the safety of the national teacher, and the other is to help the national teacher deal with mundane matters such as arranging pujas and giving blessings.

Regarding the volunteering of the monks of Anguo Temple, Meng Hui, of course, was unceremonious as the shopkeeper, and happily left these messy things to the other party to deal with, while he walked around the streets in Yuxiaguan, doing things that could be subtly influenced. Things that boost popularity.

For example, go to the graves of martyrs buried by the fallen soldiers to save the souls of the dead, such as preaching simple and easy-to-understand Buddhist principles to those family members who are nervous or curious, or go to the wounded barracks to soothe the wounded soldiers. Heal wounds.

Speaking of it, medical skills have always been an essential skill for defenders. A defender does not need to be proficient in medical skills, but he must be able to prepare simple poisons, drugs, and antidotes to treat headaches, brain fever, and bruises. , and Meng Hui is no exception.

With Meng Hui's medical skills, it is enough to deal with the conditions of most of the wounded. As for those more difficult cases, experienced veteran military doctors will naturally deal with them. After all, Meng Hui's current status is a monk rather than a doctor. What a brilliant medical skill.

However, in order to earn as much reputation as possible, Meng Hui used some tricks when treating the wounded.Not only would he use his mental power to soothe the wounded, making them more relaxed and rested better, but he would also add a little psychic liquid to the medicine ointment he prepared.These diluted elixir can only better reduce inflammation and swelling, and promote healing, and there is no significant curative effect, but just this is enough to stand out in the wounded barracks where the wounded are gathered.

In short, soon, everyone found that all the wounded who had been taken care of by Master Xuanzhen not only had more positive emotions, but also recovered faster than ordinary wounded, and this was even more embarrassing. Everyone firmly believed that Master Xuanzhen was blessed with profound blessings and was favored by heaven. He was a natural son of the Buddha who had gone down to earth for many kalpas.

Originally, Buddhism was not prosperous in this bitter and cold frontier with frequent wars. Apart from believing in the border guards who protected them, the people on the border only believed in their own hands and that man would conquer the sky.However, after Meng Hui helped them in various ways and let them see the magic of eminent monks, a wave of fanatical belief in Buddhism arose throughout Yuxia Pass, and the deeds of Master Xuanzhen followed suit. The caravan was rumored to have gone to the remaining frontier forts.

It can be said that in just a few months, Meng Hui has become the spiritual belief in the hearts of the people of Yuxiaguan. Although his status is not as good as that of Chen Chuan who has been guarding for many years, it is not much inferior.

Furthermore, the prince who had a good relationship with Meng Hui was quickly accepted by most people - after all, the prince is the heir apparent of the country, and he has the assistance of a holy monk, which means that the other party is indeed the son of destiny.

One must know that even the emperor himself does not have such a high reputation and sense of presence in such a place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

With the help of the people's trust and respect for him, Meng Hui quickly figured out the form of the entire Yuxia Pass. In addition, he was very handsome and gentle, and was very popular among women and children. He even faintly surpassed Chen Chuan, who was majestic and bloody.

Meng Hui is very self-aware. He knows that no matter how high his prestige is, as an outsider, it is difficult to pry the mouths of those trained, loyal and strict soldiers.So from the very beginning, the direction of his attack was not these soldiers, but the families of the soldiers.

When the soldiers returned home and got along with their wives, most of them would talk about their daily life and what happened around them, except for the things between husband and wife.Facing family members, everyone's spirit is the most relaxed, and it is inevitable that some things that should not be revealed will be revealed, and adults rarely deliberately avoid ignorant children when talking, so even in the ancient plane, women and children His status is not taken seriously, but it is indeed a force that cannot be underestimated.

Children are innocent and open-minded, and women, due to insufficient education, cannot clearly understand what should not be said.Putting on a mask of holiness and love, Meng Hui could easily extract what he wanted to know from their mouths, and through these connections, he was able to have a panoramic view of the wind and grass in Yuxia Pass, even going out of the city very secretly. The secret passage is well known.

After quickly integrating into the people and establishing his own "intelligence network", Meng Hui began to secretly help the prince to stabilize the rear and eliminate dissidents - after all, this is the stronghold of the second prince's party, so he had to guard against it.

Under Meng Hui's explicit hints and tip-offs, the prince successfully uncovered several spies from various sources. In addition, because the emperor was worried about the prince's safety, he began to rectify the order vigorously and chopped off several claws that were ready to move. The prince was at the border. life gradually became more stable.

Without the sniper behind the scenes, the prince's attention turned more and more to fighting the Xiongnu.

He led a large army and fought several battles with the Huns. Although he could not say that he won every game, he achieved remarkable results, and soon established a great reputation among the Huns.

When the Huns went south to invade, most of them wanted to snatch something to survive the cold winter. They were good at guerrilla warfare and came and went like the wind, but their endurance was not high. They were completely inferior to the vast land and abundant resources of the Central Plains.It can be said that most of the time the Huns practiced "supporting war with war", and once they could not plunder enough supplies, they would soon be powerless.

After a few head-to-head battles and found that there was no good fruit in front of the prince, the Xiongnu army changed its combat policy.They no longer tried to storm the Yuxia Pass, and no longer expected to go deep into more affluent areas after breaking through the pass. Most of the army chose to retreat to the grassland and wait for the cold winter to pass, while a small number of troops dispersed and looted the surrounding villages in small groups. .

The change of the Huns made the Yuxiaguan soldiers and civilians who were waiting in full battle breathe a sigh of relief-this shows that they have passed the most difficult stage.Although the guerrilla strategy of the Xiongnu's division of soldiers did cause a lot of trouble for them to eliminate the Xiongnu, it also meant that the Xiongnu no longer threatened Yuxiaguan.

Now that it is winter and the snow is falling heavily, if you want to completely fight back against the Xiongnu and drive them to the other side of the grassland, at least you have to wait until the beginning of spring next year. It is naturally impossible for the 30 army to travel thousands of miles to return to Beijing, and when the generals asked, the prince also rejected the proposal of returning to Beijing.

The prince solemnly stated that he came to the border this time not only to resist the invasion of the Huns, but to completely drive them back to their hometown and never dare to invade the Central Plains again.Since the goal has not been achieved, he will never leave.

After this period of contact, the generals have long known the prince's domineering and decisive nature, so they can only let him stay at the border, and when the ice and snow melt, they will command the army and go deep into the grassland.

In the eyes of the locals, the winter at the border is very boring, but for the new crown prince, it is very magical and beautiful.

It is rare to have such a chance to fly out of the cage. Naturally, the prince does not want to sleep like a cat in the room like the locals. He prefers to lead hundreds of cavalry soldiers, galloping and patrolling in the snow as heavy as goose feathers. The Huns who have never returned to the grassland can still exercise their muscles and bones.

As for Meng Hui, he is not as careless as he is, but enjoys this leisurely life even more. Now, he has almost ruled out the danger around the other party, and the luck of the prince is also very stable. His achievements have improved, and there is no need for Meng Hui to worry about him and work hard for him all the time.

It's a pity that reality seems to exist just to slap faces.

Just when Meng Hui thought he could enjoy a beautiful and leisurely winter vacation, he heard a bad news--when the prince was out routinely "playing", he was suddenly ambushed by a large number of Huns. A small number of soldiers escaped to report.But when Chen Chuan got the news and led his troops to the scene, he only saw corpses covered in heavy snow all over the ground, while the prince disappeared without a trace, neither alive nor dead.

Meng Hui, who almost fell off the bed upon hearing the news, turned pale:? ? ? ? ! ! ! !
