Water Margin people

Chapter 680 Traces
"You keep your word!"

Cheng Wan'er's voice sounded from inside the carriage.

"Do you really think that thief dares to come to Tokyo?"

Cheng Wanli looked at the carriage and smiled.

"I won't marry if you don't want to!"

Cheng Wan'er continued.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Cheng Wanli readily agreed that there was no way he would lose. Sun Lei had just defeated Gaotang Prefecture and occupied Cangzhou, causing turmoil in Shandong and Hedong.

Cheng Wan'er was overjoyed when she heard that, quickly took off a pearl earring, and threw it at Sun Lei who was watching the juggling.

Suzaku Avenue is very spacious and bustling with people. Cheng Wanli was on the left side of the carriage, and Sun Lei was in the crowd on the right. Cheng Wanli didn't notice Sun Lei at all.

"what?"

Sun Lei looked at the pearl earrings on the mutton kang bun in his hand, the shape was beautiful, the pearls were round, plump and shiny, and they were very valuable at a glance.

Sun Lei looked around with the pearl earrings, and happened to see Cheng Wan'er who was looking over in the carriage. At this moment, Cheng Wan'er had a resentful face and looked over with her mouth pouted.

"What do you mean?"

Sun Lei brightened the pearl earring in his hand, Cheng Wan'er still had another earring on her right ear, obviously this earring could not have been lost.

Cheng Wan'er didn't speak, but just looked at Sun Lei sadly, and the carriage left quickly, leaving only Sun Lei with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Brother, isn't that person Cheng Wanli, the prefect of Dongping Prefecture?"

Lu Fang looked at Cheng Wanli who rode away with the carriage and said.

"I heard that Cheng Wanli has resigned as the prefect of Dongping Prefecture. It looks like he has been transferred back to Tokyo!"

Guo Sheng also spoke.

"Brother, that woman seems to be interested in my brother!"

Lu Fang and Guo Sheng looked at Sun Lei with smiles on their faces.

"Then what does that mean?"

Sun Lei looked at the pearl earring in his hand, Cheng Wan'er admired him, so there is no need to throw an earring, right?
"How nice to have a note."

Sun Lei was a little speechless, this woman had a needle in her heart, and she guessed without saying a word, maybe there would be no result.

"Brother, little brother knows!"

Guo Sheng smiled and disappeared into the crowd.

"I know an eggplant, brother, I don't know yet!"

Sun Lei was speechless for a while, he hadn't thought about anything yet, what could this guy know.

"elder brother!"

The voices of Li Zhu and Qiao Daoqing sounded.

At this time, Li Zhu was holding a cloth banner, as if he was a fortune teller, while Qiao Daoqing was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk, he was an immortal Taoist.

This dress may be very conspicuous in ordinary places, but Tokyo is an exception. The emperor likes Taoism. Now that the new year is approaching, there are countless sacrificial ceremonies in Tokyo, and Taoists are indispensable in every place.

"Sit over there, eat and chat!"

Seeing Li Zhu and Qiao Daoqing coming, Sun Lei pointed to a booth selling almond tea and said.

"Brother, younger brother has found out that Fang La is in the Kaibao Temple in the northern outer city, and the monks in that temple have already believed in the Ming religion."

Qiao Daoqing said.

"Oh, is Mingjiao so powerful? Can temples in Tokyo also be incorporated?"

Sun Lei was a little surprised that the Ming Cult could annex Buddhism. Although Buddhism is now suppressed by Taoism and the emperor does not support Buddhism, its foundation lies there, and it cannot be shaken by a small Ming Cult.

This can be seen from the scale of Daxiangguo Temple. In Bianliang, Tokyo, where every inch of land is expensive, Daxiangguo Temple can guard such a large temple group in the inner city and its incense is flourishing, which shows its heritage.

"Brother, this battle between Buddhism and Taoism has been going on for a long time, and it is no less tragic than the battlefield. Now that the emperor believes in Taoism, Buddhism is naturally not reconciled. Some people will think of using other forces to achieve their goals when they have wrong ideas."

Qiao Daoqing said that he was not interested in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.

The Taoist school has always been at a disadvantage in the struggle. The reason is that the Taoist school is relatively loose, there are too many idle clouds and wild cranes, and it is natural to talk about Taoism. They like to live their own lives, understand the world, and are not good at fighting.

Unlike Buddhism, the religious law is unified and the precepts are strict. Although there are factional struggles internally, it is still a family in general. Since the mission to India, it has fought countless times with Hinduism, and its experience in fighting can be described as rich.

"That is to say, the monks in Kaibao Temple are going to use the Mingjiao to change the dynasty? Or change the emperor? These bald people are not small!"

Sun Lei smiled. It is not without reason that Buddhism has been destroyed several times. These foreign religions do not understand the survival principles of this land at all. Both gods and Buddhas must submit to imperial power. This is completely opposite to the Western religious world. Here The imperial power is sacred and inviolable, and any force that tries to subvert the imperial power will be destroyed.

"However, Fang La really put a lot of money into it this time. He even took out the trump card of Kaibao Temple. No wonder he dared to agree to come to Tokyo to hold a hero conference."

Sun Lei shook his head and said.

"Brother, I found out where Tian Hu is. Tian Hu and others are now near the Town God's Temple in the northeast of the outer city. They rented a yard, and they eat, drink and play near the Town God's Temple all day long."

Li Zhu said, Town God's Temple is also a lively place, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are not a few people going to offer incense, and there are snack streets on the streets outside the temple.

"Tian Hu is so greedy!"

Sun Lei smiled, Tian Hu seemed to come from a bitter place, and he never forgot to eat wherever he went.

"So only Wang Qing is still missing!"

Sun Lei nodded and said, the three major bandits, Fang La and Tian Hu, have been found, and only Wang Qing is left.

"Brother, this Wang Qing is a native of Kaifeng Prefecture. He is very familiar with Tokyo. It is not easy to find him."

Qiao Daoqing opened the mouth and said, Wang Qing is different from the others. Several generations of his family are locals in Tokyo, and he is also a platoon in Kaifeng Prefecture. It is too easy for this local snake to hide from others.

"It's fine if you can't find it. It's enough to have Fang La and Tian Hu's traces. Wang Qing just needs to keep an eye on Tong Guan."

Sun Lei looked at Qiao Daoqing and Li Zhu and said.

"How is brother going to deal with them?"

Li Zhu asked.

"You don't need to deal with them, just wait for them to show up. Since it's a contest of guts, it's natural to play something exciting, such as the imperial city!"

Sun Lei smiled and pointed at the imperial palace at the end of Suzaku Street.

"Brother is going to enter the imperial city!"

Li Zhu and Qiao Daoqing's expressions changed. This is really bold. It's not easy to enter this imperial city.

"Otherwise, how can you compare your courage!"

Sun Lei laughed and said, since you are here, let's play some exciting games, speed up this decaying world, speed up its demise, and speed up its reconstruction.

"Brother, this is too risky. The inner city of the imperial city is no different from ordinary places. It is heavily guarded. Once it is discovered, the whole of Tokyo will be blocked."

Qiao Daoqing persuaded that there are quite a lot of troops stationed in Tokyo. Once an assassin is found in the imperial city, all the troops will be mobilized, and not a single fly can fly out of Tokyo.

"Don't worry, I must stay behind first, and leave when the trouble is over."

Sun Lei said with a smile, taking a risk is definitely a risk, but as long as everything is arranged, it is not impossible to try.
