Chapter 396: I don't know how to escape

In Gaochun City, there is a house next to the north wall. There is actually an extremely secret cellar in this house. The entrance to the cellar is actually in the stove where the fire is burning and cooking.

This cellar is not only a cellar, but also an authentic one. The tunnel is about 200 steps long and leads directly to a temporary shack outside the North City. These shacks live in local vegetable farmers. Vegetable farmers plant various vegetables and vegetables in the fields outside the city, directly supplying the needs of the people in Gaochun City.

A man in black was lying on a platform in the cellar, with a black feather arrow inserted on his shoulder. The feather arrow penetrated his entire body and stuck in his shoulder blades and collarbone. The arrow shot out of his body had been cut off. The feathers that controlled the body at the tail of the arrow showed bright red under the dim light of the oil lamp, and blood was constantly seeping out of the body.

"Master, you can't pull it out. The arrow shaft is stuck in the bones. I don't know where it hurts. If it is broken in the body, the consequences will be unimaginable. I'd better invite a good doctor tomorrow?" a man dressed in an extremely ordinary frowned and said.

I saw the man in black with a bare head, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, his figure was trembling, and his face was even more enduring pain. This person was Deng Yuanjue, who had just assassinated Zheng Zhi. He heard Deng Yuanjue’s teeth were important and a word popped out in the gaps of his teeth: “Pull it out!”

The man next to him had no choice but to hear the words, he reached out to grab the scissors, cut open the black clothes on Ye Xing's left and right a few times, held the arrow shaft tightly with both hands, took a long breath, and said, "Master, bear it more!"

Deng Yuanjue said nothing and his teeth were tight.

The man next to him lifted one leg and stepped on Deng Yuanjue's back, pressing against Deng Yuanjue's body, preventing Deng Yuanjue from getting up with his own arrow when he was in pain, so as not to fail to draw the arrow.

The movement was ready, and the man burst out all his strength and bounced back. The feather arrow made a sharp friction sound with the bones, and then pulled it out from Deng Yuanjue's back and spurted it out with a bloodline!

"Ah!!!" Deng Yuanjue screamed, heart-wrenching!

The man who pulled the arrow quickly threw off the bloody arrow rod in his hand, took a random cloth ball and stuffed it directly into Deng Yuanjue's mouth, and said hurriedly: "Master, bear it, there are officers and soldiers everywhere, so you can't scream!"

Deng Yuanjue bit the cloth ball in one bite, his whole body trembled and sweated like rain. He stood up sideways with the man's movements, and his mouth whimpered.

There were seven or eight bottles and jars on the table next to the man. The powder inside kept pouring into Deng Yuanjue's front and back wounds. The clean cloth was blocked in the front and back wounds, and white cloth was wrapped around it. The busyness was orderly and full of experience.

"Master, I don't know where this arrow hurts the body..." After the matter was done, the blood was still seeping through, and the man was worried and said something.

"Life and death are destined!" Deng Yuanjue's words came from the gap in the cloth, with a sense of determination.

The man nodded. At this time, he was really alive and had a life and death. He brought strong wine to feed Deng Yuanjue.

Deng Yuanjue waved his hand and pushed away the liquor, slowly took down the cloth, and said, "If I die, the position of the leader will be passed on to the Lord's position. All the people in the church will obey the orders of the Lord and will not violate it."

"Master, is this worth it?" The man put down the strong wine in his hand and went to feed it with water. The man was able to say this when Deng Yuanjue gave his will, which obviously has a low status in Manichaeism and has an extraordinary relationship with Deng Yuanjue.

"Listen to me." Deng Yuanjue didn't have the intention to explain slowly at this time. He only had a great thought in his heart, which was to carry forward the Manichi religion. As long as Fang La succeeded, the Manichi religion would soar into the sky from then on. Deng Yuanjue wanted Fang La to be the leader and emperor like Zhao Ji. A Taoist leader and emperor of the leader of the Manichi religion.

"Oh... the leader of the sect has a good fortune, so how can he die here?" The man couldn't bear to let Deng Yuanjue die like this in his heart. Perhaps he didn't want to see Fang La become the leader, because Fang La did not believe in Light Mani at all. People who believe in religion always regard these things as important. Faith is like-minded, and faith is the leader.

When Deng Yuanjue heard the words, he suddenly raised his head and glared coldly, making the man shudder.

"I just follow the order! As long as the light is everywhere in the world, what else is it?" The man looked at Deng Yuanjue's eyes and nodded in response. In fact, he understood Deng Yuanjue's thoughts in his heart.

Manichaeism advocates light, and its core doctrine is actually the same as the doctrines of other sects in the world, and it also encourages people to be good. However, Manichaeism is different from Christianity, Buddhism, Taoism, and Islam. The latter four are mostly based on personal inner cultivation.

Christianity lies in personal enlightenment and repentance, thank God for giving, repentance of one's own sins, achieve inner thoroughness, and reach heaven.

Buddhism is about enduring human suffering, treating everything well, pursuing spiritual liberation, achieving Pure Land, and cultivating the next life.

Taoism lies in the harmony between man and spirit and nature, pursuing transcendence in realm, and understanding the consistency between man and the universe, philosophically transcends the secular world, becoming an immortal and free.

Islam is more straightforward in terms of personal cultivation. Islamic doctrine directly stipulates that Allah and the prophets have accurate behavioral norms and public welfare obligations. Everything can be done, what cannot be done, what must be done. There are clear cognitive norms, and the content is naturally about human self-cultivation and belief in God. Islam has even more stringent requirements for individual self-cleaning.

Mani has a difference in this regard. Mani's envelope of light is full of struggle. The two schools and three sects of Mani's core are light and darkness, good and evil. The three sects are the process of struggle. At first, good and evil are separated, while in the middle, evil suppresses good, resulting in the inseparability of good and evil, and then light returns to the world. The atmosphere of Mani's doctrine itself has a kind of struggle, and also a strong sense of mission to save the world and save the world.

This is also the reason why Mani cannot develop in China. The Chinese people actually lack a spirit of fighting for destiny in their hearts. The more peaceful and stable the period and the more life is, the less there is no soil for Manicheism to develop and grow. Manicheism can only make its mark in troubled times.

This is also the reason why Manichaeism is not liked by rulers. It has been spread to the Central Plains less than a hundred years ago. It was bloody suppressed with Buddhism during the reign of Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty. From then on, Manichae has always been under the surface.

As for the branches of Manichaeism in later generations, many of them became evil and far from the earliest doctrines. For example, the White Lotus Sect is a complete cult organization.

Manichaeism became famous in Persia, and there were also shadows of Christianity and Buddhism, and in fact there were shadows of Islam. Manichaeism mythology also included the Father God, prophets, and Buddhas.

The word Baoguang also comes from Manichaeism, the twelve Manichae Gods, also known as the twelve permanent treasure light kings. The nickname of "Baoguang Tathagata" may not be a simple nickname in the world, but also the incarnation of the sect god of the leader Deng Yuanjue.

Religion itself is a philosophy of advocating people to be good, and it is a standard for doing things. However, once religion is fanatical, there will be many problems. For example, Manichaeism, its doctrine is different from others, and it has the meaning of fanaticism. When the miserable and chaotic times come, that is, when Manichaeism can truly develop.

An hour later, the footsteps of military men fighting horses on Gaochun Street slowly dissipated. The population in Gaochun City itself was not large, and the three thousand people searched the entire city, which was considered to be a large number of people, but the seriously injured Baoguang Tathagata disappeared from everyone's sight.

The southern gate of Gaochun slowly opened in the night, Zheng Zhi took the lead, and Yan Qing led the way to the left.

Three thousand iron cavalry galloped on horseback, and the official road was illuminated by torches.

Zheng Zhi's inner anger has reached the verge of an outbreak. Zheng Zhi takes life and death lightly, but also seriously. In order to fight for the foundation of survival, Zheng Zhi can put life and death aside. It is also for the foundation of survival and life and death. For the sake of the family and the brothers around him, Zheng Zhi regards life and death as extremely important.

Regarding tonight's events, the anger that Zheng Zhi developed from fear was self-evident. Fang La originally had no sense of hostility in Zheng Zhi's heart, and he could only make himself promote his merits. At this time, this feeling gradually changed.

If someone wants to die by himself, how can Zheng Zhi make him live well?

Gaochun City slowly returned to calm, and the sound and vibration brought by horse hooves on the ground disappeared without a trace. Deng Yuan felt so painful that he tossed and felt even more at ease. Some things were really beyond Deng Yuanjue's expectations. It was not the first time Deng Yuanjue had done this assassination, nor was it the first time he fought with someone for life. However, this time, not only did eight good players in the sect die, but he almost died on the spot.

This was the first time in Deng Yuanjue's life. The bravery of the general was vivid in his mind, and the elite soldiers were impressed by the soldiers. Even Deng Yuanjue knew that he could not win, and facing two such masters, Deng Yuanjue felt a little worried.

He was not worried about his own safety, but about the increasing resistance to Fang La's rebellion. From the beginning of the rebellion to the present, wildfires swept across the Yangtze River and Zhejiang like a prairie fire. At this time, the appearance of such an official general named Zheng was already the biggest obstacle on Fang La's road.

Suddenly, Deng Yuanjue seemed to remember something and said, "How is the city so quiet? Go out and check it out quickly."

The man next to him rushed up the stairs, opened the iron plate under the stove, then lifted the iron pot, and came out of the stove.

A moment later, the man came back and said, "Master, the thousands of knights in the city have left the city through the South Gate, and the fire has lasted for several miles."

When Deng Yuanjue heard this, he was shocked and said straight: "The big thing is not good, help me out of the city quickly."

"Master, how can you leave the city like this? Let's just rest here for a while." The man replied.

"I'm still at ease. The officers and soldiers left the city to attack the camp. The family manager would not be the opponent. Hurry up and spread the news, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!" Deng Yuanjue spoke while trying to support his body with one hand, and he was about to leave the city. The family manager was naturally Yu Qing, the Xuanzhou general under Fang La, and the commander of the army stationed outside the city by Gucheng Lake.

"Master, it's too late for me to leave the city at this time. The officers and soldiers are all strong horses. How can we chase them?" This man really didn't want Deng Yuanjue to drag his seriously injured body and go out of the city to rush. Although it was only thirty or forty miles, it might also cause Deng Yuanjue to die on the roadside.

"Stop talking nonsense, go quickly!" Deng Yuanjue actually took a step towards the tunnel first.

The man couldn't, so he had to keep up and hold Deng Yuanjue forward.

No matter how anxious Deng Yuanjue was, he was seriously injured, no matter how good his light skills were, he naturally could not keep up with Zheng Zhi's pace.

In front of Zheng Zhi, there was already a scattered lake beach on the lake beach, with horse hooves coming from the sky, and winding fire dragons illuminating the entire official road.

At this time, Zheng Zhi stopped on the lake beach, and the soldiers on both sides were in full swing.

Zheng Zhi pointed ahead and smiled, smiling extremely cruelly, and said with a smile: "I didn't know how to escape, my courage is commendable."

The enemy camps were built in a very simple manner, which was not as good as those of the Dangxiang people's fence village. However, the thieves inside seemed extremely brave and did not seem to be afraid of the official army. Although they were awakened by the horse's hooves, they all gathered in the direction of the horse's hooves with weapons.
