Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 705 704. The way you frown
"My lord, it's over."

In the quiet room, Master Huqiu nodded slightly after hearing Li Zhen's words:
"How about the battle damage?"

"Shouzhen saw that not many people died. The main general is gone. These people can't withstand a few rounds of charges. And... it seems that they don't have much fighting spirit, and they surrendered quite completely. We are still lightening the battlefield here, and reining in the baggage. , I guess it will take a while to know how the battle report is."

While listening, Master Huqiu picked up a map from the side.

All those drawn on this map belong to the generation of Shanxi, and there are many coded symbols that only Baiqisi can understand.

After carefully checking the circle, she put away the map.

"Let Shouzhen tell the second child that the next step is to keep an eye on Yongfeng warehouse and be careful of Xue Ju... In addition, after leveling Taiyuan and opening up the east road, prepare to go to Guanzhong. Li Mi will not give Zhai too much time, keep quiet Over there... let him figure it out. When necessary, it's okay to show weakness or pretend to be blind, in short... let Zhai Rang and Li Mi fight as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Li Zhen responded.

Then he asked tentatively:
"Then when are we going to find Xuanzang?"

Seeing him mentioning this, Lord Huqiu broke away from his contemplation, and watched him shake his head slightly:
"In the past few days, I have been thinking about it. Do you want to see Xuanzang~"

"...?"

Li Zhen was taken aback.

"Where did you say this...?"

In his opinion, isn't it reasonable to go looking for Xuanzang after knowing his whereabouts?

That is my friend.

But looking at his bewildered appearance, Master Huqiu said:
"Taoist, have you ever thought about what if Xuanzang doesn't want to see you?"

"Uh……"

"I know what you and I have experienced together in Hedong, and I can also understand that if Shoujing's words were not on your mind, he would not have said them at all. Therefore, after knowing Xuanzang's whereabouts these days, I have been Thinking about it, Xuanzang, the most promising Buddhist son in 500 years. Is his way really up to you?"

Master Huqiu asked suspiciously what he had said from the bottom of his heart:
"It's just like you. What you seek for enlightenment is simply enlightenment? Or is it the desire to fulfill the long-cherished wish in your heart?... I have been thinking about this question. And, I am still thinking, what will you do when you meet Xuanzang ? If he figured it out, why did he stay in Luoshenna for so long? And if he couldn’t figure it out, even if you went, he would go with you? The Buddhist scriptures teach all sentient beings. If his thoughts are not clear, how can he succeed? Buddha?"

"..."

Li Zhen frowned all of a sudden.

He understood what Lord Fox Qiu said.

To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a thoughtful version of "Would you bother others?"

Because in his opinion, whether it is the matter of the Bodhi Meditation Institute, or Shoujing's sentence "Learning Buddhism cannot save this world", the two are essentially irrelevant.

Xuanzang is Xuanzang, and the monastery is the monastery.

The two sides are not next to each other.

Li Zhen doesn't care about the activities of the Buddhist monastery.

At his stage, there is basically nothing to worry about in this world.

But Xuanzang was his friend, and he was looking for it, but when he got the news after searching, he wanted to call his friend over.

It's as simple as that.

However, Mr. Huqiu's words today made him not know how to respond.

Because Xuanzang appeared in Luoshen, it was a very strange thing.

Logically speaking, shouldn't the white-clothed monk immediately yell out the phrase "I can tell you're not human" when he sees the demon girl?

Happily not.

Instead...

To put it bluntly, it is called collusion, and to put it bluntly, it is called "a nest of snakes and rats".

It just came together like this.

What is Xuanzang's picture?

He hadn't been able to figure this out either.

Engage in that "I don't go to hell who goes to hell" drama?

Shouldn't it be?

If you want to watch something crappy...do you still need to go to Luoshen?
The world itself is bad enough.

Xuanzang's wisdom should not be so superficial.

The more he thought about it, the more he frowned.

Lord Huqiu also kept looking at him.

Looking at his frowning...

Until... Xue Rulong's voice sounded:
"grown ups."

"Say."

Lord Fox Qiu looked outside the door.

Xue Rulong stepped in, cupped his hands and said:

"The news came from the palace just now, and after receiving the request for help from Luoyang, the queen empress decided to order Xue Shixiong, who was defending Dou Jiande in Yandi, as the commander-in-chief to retreat to the Central Plains and defend Luoyang to support the king of Yue after discussing with the officials. It is also decided to dispatch [-] Jianghuai troops led by Wang Shichong to support them!"

"Oh?"

There was a hint of surprise in Master Huqiu's voice...

But immediately showed a look of disappointment.

murmured:

"These people... can't even tell that the land of Yan can't be lost? If even Xue Shixiong is withdrawn, wouldn't the whole Hebei land be given to Dou Jiande for nothing?"

After speaking, she thought for a while and said to Xue Rulong:

"Give this information to Dou Jiande."

"Yes."

Xue Rulong responded, and then asked:

"Then do you want to tell Du Fuwei about the [-] Jiangdu soldiers being transferred?"

"We don't need to tell him, he will know sooner or later. It doesn't matter. In addition, give Li Mi the list of nails buried in Wagang by Wang Shichong. Since Wang Shichong left Jiangdu, all the military reports that Baiqi Division should submit are all Delivery will be delayed by three days."

"……grown ups?"

Xue Rulong who heard this was obviously puzzled.

Master Huqiu waved his hand casually:
"The cooperation is almost done now. In addition... send a message to Uncle Zhong. Within a month, all the confidential files of Baiqi Division have been burned. From then on, the news will not go to Luoyang Technical School, but to Taiyuan. The second child will be in charge..."

Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, looked aside and didn't know whether she was in a daze or the Taoist who was thinking, and added:
"On the other side of Luoyang, only one team of heavenly stems and earthly branches is left, let Chen Yi personally lead the team, and use it to meet Hong Ying in the palace to escape. The rest, except for the hidden piles, all evacuated from Luoyang."

"...My lord, if this is the case, if the East Palace cannot get accurate and timely information, they will definitely send a letter to Jiangdu to hold them accountable, and then we..."

"It's okay, the war is starting, and they don't care about Baiqisi's news. It's almost the same."

Suddenly, Master Huqiu stood up and walked to Xue Rulong's side:
"Prepare the car. Prepare ten days' worth of water in the car. Early tomorrow morning, go to the palace and report to the empress that I have left the city."

"I'll report it? My lord won't go in person? What if..."

"Let's just say that I found Luoshen's trace and went to track it down."

Hearing this, Li Zhen recovered from his thoughts, and met the helpless eyes of the woman:

"If you don't go out this trip, I'm afraid someone will always feel at ease, right?"

After finishing speaking, he waved to Xue Rulong:
"Go. Prepare the car~"

"……Yes."

Xue Rulong responded and left quickly.

As soon as he left, Li Zhen said puzzledly:

"Didn't your lord say... not sure if we should go or not?"

Master Huqiu waved his hand casually:

"That's just my idea, not yours. What's more..."

"...?"

"I don't like the way you frown."

She said so.
