A knife in love

Chapter 3070

When Shang Heyang recalled this past event, he felt a little surprised in his heart, and said in his mouth: "It has been more than 100 years since Zhang Shijie led the Song army to defeat here, so why is there such a ghost story?"

Qin Tieyi said: "Brother Shang doesn't know something. In the battle at Yashan that day, Zhang Hongfan set fire to more than a thousand warships of the Song army, and none of the Song army surrendered. Zhang Hongfan won a complete victory and was about to order the salvage of the little emperor Zhao Bing, the empress, and the empress dowager." Waiting for the corpses of other people to bring them back to ask for credit to the Tartars. Suddenly there was a strong wind and heavy rain on the sea, and huge waves rolled up. The Tartars’ warships were damaged countless in the wind and waves, and they fled back to the shore in embarrassment. Do you have any more energy to search for the corpses? Although Zhang Hongfan was annoyed, he was terrified when he saw the rough sea, so he had to give up. The heavy rain lasted for seven days and seven nights. After the heavy rain stopped, the cliffs and seas were covered with corpses of soldiers of the Song Army , 20 people!"

When Qin Tieyi said this, his voice trembled even more.Shang Heyang and several of his guards were murderers without batting an eyelid, but when they thought of the tragic situation of the Yashan War more than 100 years ago, they felt uneasy.Outside the tavern, the wind was howling, and the rain was rumbling. Everyone was worried and looked terrified.

Qin Tieyi went on to say: "Since the Yashan War, this place has been haunted frequently. Yashan was originally the only way to go from Fujian to Guangdong by sea. In the past hundred years, I don't know how many ships of all sizes have been here. Destroyed people. Sometimes I saw ships floating on the sea. When I boarded the ship, there was no one on board. At first the local officials thought it was the work of pirates, but the property on the ship remained intact, which was very strange. And every time there was a strong wind on the sea During the heavy rain, standing on the shore can hear the sound of fighting between the two armies..."

Even Shang and Yang, who had fought battles for a long time, could hear their hair explode at this moment.It's just that the four guards under him are by his side, he suppressed the fear in his heart, and before Qin Tieyi finished speaking, he rushed to say: "Brother Qin, I think we have fought dozens of battles with the emperor back then, and we haven't seen any scenes before. But I have never seen any ghosts and gods! You are also considered a hero, how can you believe in ghosts and gods?!"

Qin Tieyi showed a terrified look on his face, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Shang didn't know something. At first, my younger brother didn't believe in ghosts in the world, but after I returned to my hometown, I saw those ships floating on the sea with my own eyes, like ghosts. I can’t help but my little brother doesn’t believe it. And I’ve heard the terrible sound from the sea during the storm, it’s definitely not man-made, it must be ghosts and gods.”

Shang Heyang shook his head, thinking to himself that Qin Tieyi was also a murderous man back then, and made a lot of military exploits.It's just that this person loves money like his life, and it's true that he desperately killed the enemy on the battlefield, but he killed the good and pretended to be meritorious, and he also did a lot of bad things such as looting the people's property.Later, he entered the capital with the emperor, and this bastard already had several 10 taels of furniture.The emperor rewarded him for his meritorious service. It stands to reason that he has done a lot of meritorious service, so it is not difficult to be the commander of a guard.But he has done too many evil things, and there are many complaints against him.Although the emperor couldn't bear to kill him, many people would not accept him if he wanted to reward him as an official.This bastard knew that the situation was not good, so he only said that he had no intention of being an official, so he resigned from his job as a superior official, and left the capital with the wealth he had plundered, and returned to his hometown to enjoy the blessings.Looking at the appearance of this person right now, he looks like a pampered rich man.If a person has money, a wife and children, he will naturally become less courageous, and it is not uncommon to believe in these illusory ghosts and gods.

Thinking of this, Shang Heyang showed a look of disapproval on his face.Shopkeeper Hu, who was waiting on the sidelines, saw Shang Heyang's unbelieving expression, and couldn't help but said: "Everything that the official Qin said is true, not lies. The villain grew up here since he was a child, so the old man According to legend, those ghosts who died at sea are always worshiped, looking for scapegoats everywhere, if the Zhenhai Temple hadn't been built later, these ghosts don't know how long the troubles will last!"

Hearing Shopkeeper Hu mentioned Zhenhai Temple, Shang Heyang was taken aback, turned his head to look at Shopkeeper Hu, and asked, "Is Zhenhai Temple built nearby?"

Qin Tieyi nodded and said: "Old nonsense is right. To be honest, my younger brother came here today to rush to Zhenhai Temple. Unexpectedly, there was a strong wind blowing on the road, and it was going to rain heavily, so he had to turn back. This The Zhenhai Temple was built by the merchants and common people in Yashan during the reign of the first emperor. After the temple was completed, under the auspices of the monks in the temple, the common people moved the bones of the Song army buried in the random graves on Deshengling to Zhenhai Temple. On the hill behind, a large tomb was built, and a tomb was built for the young emperor Zhao Bing and Lu Xiufu Zhang Shijie. The abbot of Zhenhai Temple led the monks to run a water and land dojo, and the Zhao Song royal family and Soldiers of the Song Army, let go of their grievances. Since the Zhenhai Temple was built, there have been fewer and fewer ghosts in this area. But every time there is a storm, some people will still encounter evil spirits."

After listening to Qin Tieyi's words, Shang Heyang thought for a moment, shook his head, and said: "The theory of ghosts and gods is ultimately vague, so don't be too superstitious."

When he said this, he glanced at Qin Tieyi, and then continued: "I heard from my brother, it seems that I often go to Zhenhai Temple. I think that my brother was a good man who killed people without blinking an eye. After the official returned to his hometown, he put down his butcher knife and became a Buddha immediately, so he went to Zhenhai Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha? Hehe, hehe."

Hearing what Shang Heyang said, Qin Tieyi shook his head, gave a wry smile, and said, "Brother Shang is joking. My little brother has at least a hundred lives in his hands. He just wants to shave his head and become a monk. After death, you will still go to Avici Hell, and the wicked will do everything to the end, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling every day, doing everything."

When Qin Tieyi said this, his expression was a little gloomy, he sighed, and then continued: "However, Master Chengxin, the abbot of Zhenhai Temple, is a remarkable eminent monk, and my younger brother is very close to him, so I have nothing to do in my free time. So I went to Zhenhai Temple for a walk, listening to him talk about the scriptures, I felt quite peaceful in my heart. When I go to Zhenhai Temple today, I am going to visit Master Chengxin and listen to him explain the Diamond Sutra."

Shang Heyang nodded, and said: "After I arrived in Fujian, I heard about the name of Master Cheng Xin, and he is indeed an eminent monk. However, I heard that Zen Master Zhengyi was haunting Yashan recently. Zhenhai Temple puts up the order, I wonder if Brother Qin knows this person?"

After listening to Shang Heyang, Qin Tieyi said with a smile on his face, "Brother Shang is asking the right person, and my younger brother really knows Zen Master Zhengyi. Although Zen Master Zhengyi has only been in Yashan for three months, his name is in Yashan. Everyone in the town knows about it, and even the governor of Guangdong, Mr. Cai, once invited Zen Master Zhengyi to his mansion for a talk. This Zen Master Zhengyi not only knows Buddhism, but also is good at playing the piano. Brother Shang knows that the younger brother is illiterate He is a vulgar person, but when he listens to Zen master Zhengyi playing the piano, he can really hear a little trick."
