Chapter 449 Cleaning the Buddhist Temple
Xu Minshi cupped his hands and said: "In order to rectify the Buddhist temple, everyone in your temple must come here immediately to be counted, and the money and food account books should also be brought immediately!"
Huiju's face was shocked when he heard that: "No way!"
"If you can't do it, you have to do it! This is not something you can bargain for!"
Xu Minshi said.
Hui Gu immediately shouted: "Come on!"
Soon, a large number of strong and healthy temple monks came from around the Buddhist temple with knives, guns, sticks and Zen sticks, no less than a hundred people.
The so-called hall monks are equivalent to the "Forbidden Army" in the temple's armed forces, who are directly responsible for the security of the main temple, and are also equivalent to wealthy thugs, and most of them are gangsters or deserters from border towns who have surrendered to the powerful. Naturally, they also have martial arts and are brave.
Turn the words back.
Xu Minshi saw this one and asked in a deep voice, "What's the meaning of this?"
Huiju sneered and said:
"The Fucheng doesn't know to ask, whose family temple is this Xiangcheng Temple! How dare you come here to investigate, let alone you, a small Fucheng, even Shuntian's Fuyuan and Fuyuan came here. You have to give our temple some thin noodles!"
"If the Prime Minister wants to please his superiors and clean up Buddhist temples, he should go find a few ordinary ruined temples. Why come here to find yourself uncomfortable, unless you don't want to be on top of yourself!"
Xu Minshi looked at Huang Kezuan and said in a low voice:
"Sure enough, the Buddhist temples in Gyeonggi are the most difficult to rectify. The first Buddhist temple we encountered had a difficult background, but we can't back down from it. As the saying goes, we will go all out, then decline, and then we will be exhausted! You can't be soft now, you go and send a message to Chen The general manager, just say that the other party resists the decree, and let him shoot and kill!"
As Xu Minshi said, he handed his card ticket to Huang Kezuan.
Huang Kezuan clapped his hands and said yes.
At this time, Chen Feng, the commander-in-chief of the Jingying Patrol Battalion under the control of Shuntian Mansion, rushed over with his troops from the place where he camped [-] miles away from the temple.
At this time, Xu Minshi and Huang Kezuan had also come out from Xiangcheng Temple, and happened to meet Chen Feng.
Xu Minshi said to Chen Feng: "Don't hurt the sojourners and those who come to the temple to burn incense."
Chen Feng bowed his hands and said yes, although he led his troops straight to Xiangcheng Temple.
When Hui Gu saw Xu Minshi leaving, he thought he was subdued, so he smiled contemptuously and didn't care.
But when he went back to the temple and embraced his concubine to be happy in his own garden, he saw a monk in charge come in and said that the officers and soldiers had gone and returned.
Huigu was furious immediately, and immediately brought out more than 100 hall monks.
"Why are you still here?"
"Does this abbot have to tell you the origin of this temple?"
"Tell you, this is the family temple of Uncle Yongchang, and our Uncle Yongchang is the in-laws of Uncle Wuqing!"
As soon as Huiju finished speaking, a puff of white smoke appeared, followed by a bang.
Chen Feng directly ordered his firearmsmen to go to the front of the steps, and opened fire on Hui Gu and other monks on the steps.
Huigu was shot on the spot, and watched helplessly as he saw several large holes appear in his chest and abdomen, and blood was gurgling out.
"you!"
Hui Gu was stunned, and before he had time to say more, he fell down in front of the steps, and his blood flowed down the stone steps.
Most of the temple monks behind him were also shot and fell to the ground, and many of them were holding their wounds and screaming in pain on the steps.
At this time, the officers and soldiers under Chen Feng's command were very well-trained, armed with swords and shields and holding shields in front, followed by spearmen and firearmsmen, and they walked towards the main hall of Xiangcheng Temple in an orderly manner, and they were very agile. Seeing a monk alive, he directly stabbed him with a spear or a knife, killing him.
Many faithful men and women who came to burn incense and worship Buddha in the temple screamed or their legs trembled, and ran out of the temple.
However, Chen Feng and others were Qi Jiguang's new Beijing camp officers and soldiers, they were very disciplined, they didn't attack these faithful men and women, they just kept killing monks whenever they saw them.
As I said before, most of the monks in the temple are Jiangyang bandits who surrendered to the powerful or deserters from the frontier army who violated military discipline, so they are so brave and ruthless.
At this time, several hall monks took the initiative to kill the officers and soldiers with Zen sticks, and they had obviously practiced, so the chassis was very stable. Shaolin, how dare you destroy my benefactor's family business?!"
clap clap!
Suddenly, the firearmsman of the advance team of the official army under Chen Feng directly used the wind chasing gun invented by Zhao Shizhen in recent years, and fired a shuttle of bullets at the tutuo.
The advantage of the wind chasing gun is that it has a long range, and one gun has four lead bullets. Although it requires the cooperation of two people, it can indeed take advantage of the range advantage to strike first.
At this time, Toutuo hit four bullets and fell a hundred paces away.
At the same time, the other temple monks who followed also fell to the ground.
"It's so far away!"
The other abbot of the temple, Fang Zhi, also stood there in astonishment when he heard the sound, and then knelt down on the ground, clasped his hands together, and looked kindly:
"Amitabha, please put down the butcher knife, Master Wang, lest the Bodhisattva be angry."
Pfft!
However, Chen Feng came over at this moment and directly stabbed the abbot Fang Zhi:
"There are so many wicked people in the world, why haven't you seen the Bodhisattva angry? What's more, you have disobeyed the order and disrespected it. You have broken the king's law. You are undoubtedly the most evil people. If the Bodhisattva wants to get angry, he will be angry with you."
"In addition, the destiny is clear, even Bodhisattvas have to be controlled by my emperor, we are acting according to the emperor's order, even the Buddha should obey the will!"
Chen Feng was trained in Jingwei martial arts, so he said these words at this time to dispel the doubts of the officers and soldiers under his command about entering the important place of Buddhism. After he said, the officers and soldiers under his command did look calmer, and Follow Chen Feng and continue to suppress monks.
……
The backyard of Xiangcheng Temple.
The chief abbot, Ru Dazheng, drank tea and listened to music with Chen Jingbang, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Bo Chaofu of Yongping Bo, so he did not go to see Xu Minshi, Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture.
Because the first batch of subscription coupons did not make any money, Chen Jingbang came here to take away a sum of silver dollars that he had saved in Xiangcheng Temple for lending, so as to buy the next subscription coupons, so he came here on purpose.
But Yongpingbo Wang Chaofu and Ruda did not want Chen Jingbang to take the money and affect their own interests, so they persuaded him.
"I still have a private nunnery that is very good. It's not far from here. Seeing that noon is approaching, why don't Da Sima try it?"
For this reason, Wang Chaofu even wanted to trick Chen Jingbang into changing his mind.
Chen Jingbang was struggling, when suddenly he saw a monk in charge coming, the chief abbot Ruda murmured in his ear for a while.
Ruda suddenly changed color after hearing this.
Wang Chaofu also asked Ru Da at this time: "What's going on?"
Ru Da quickly replied: "The officers and soldiers of Shuntian Mansion are killing us on the grounds of our resistance and disobedience, and they have almost reached the backyard!"
"what?!"
Chen Jingbang also got up immediately and walked outside, suddenly he saw the corpses in the temple, immediately took out the official seal, and shouted loudly:
"stop!"
Chen Feng saw the words "Shi Yu Si" written on his official seal, so he hurriedly asked people to stop him, and asked, "Why is your lord here?"
Chen Jingbang ignored Chen Feng and only waited for Xu Minshi and Huang Kezuan to arrive, then walked up to Xu Minshi with an angry face.
In other words, this Xiangcheng Temple also has his part, how could he let the government destroy it like this.
Because Chen Jingbang was his tutor in the provincial examination, Xu Minshi hurriedly bowed his hands: "Enfu!"
Snapped!
Chen Jingbang slapped Xu Minshi directly: "You still know that I am your benefactor! Then how can you do evil in the pure place of Buddhism without authorization!"
