Chapter 581 0578 [Finally got rid of this madman]

Now that the opportunity to make meritorious deeds was imminent, how could Li Du let it go?

He immediately ordered a quick squad to be summoned to capture the leader. As if he felt it was inappropriate, he also brought along the city's archers and patrolmen.

In less than half an hour, Li Du had gathered nearly a thousand people.

Under the leadership of shopkeeper Hu, more than a thousand people arrived in the city where Geng Xiao lived.

"Zhang Dutou, lead the fast team to guard the South Alley exit."

"Kingdutou, you lead three hundred archers to surround the east alley, and the rest will follow me."

Although Geng Xiao had already said that Fang Qifu was alone, Shopkeeper Hu still acted as if he were facing a formidable enemy and set up a dragnet.

He didn't want to take the credit for his work and fly away due to various accidents.

Although it seems that there is only a trial rank of "千户" between a hundred households and a thousand households, there is actually a world of difference between them. A thousand households is a real fifth-rank official.

There are two thresholds for becoming an official, one is the seventh rank and the other is the fifth rank.

Only when you enter the fifth rank can you be considered to have a name and a place in the court.

There are so many officials below the fifth rank. Not to mention His Majesty, even the ministers in the cabinet cannot name a few officials below the fifth rank.

After all the troops from all sides were deployed, shopkeeper Hu waved his hand: "Follow me to arrest the leader of the thief!"

……

Steady snoring sounded from the bedroom.

Suddenly, Fang Qifu suddenly opened his eyes.

Years of being on the run have made him extremely vigilant. Even if he sleeps, he doesn't dare to sleep too hard.

In fact, Geng Xiao deliberately offered to buy wine and meat just to get Fang Qi Buddha drunk.

But what he didn't expect was that Fang Qifu had practiced martial arts since he was a child, lived an extremely regular life, was not addicted to alcohol, and was not close to women.

The first two sips I took were just to clear away the depression in my chest, and then I stopped drinking.

Fang Qifu's eyes were alert and he listened attentively.

Not right.

It was so quiet, not only the hawking sounds in the streets and alleys, but even the chirping of birds disappeared.

His intuition told him that a crisis was coming.

Fang Qifu quickly got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom.

When he arrived at the small courtyard, he leaned forward to the wooden door and looked out through the crack in the door.

I saw that the alley outside the door was crowded with archers, holding long spears, and walking softly towards the small courtyard.

Fang Qifu was shocked and had no time to think about whether Geng Xiao betrayed him or the government discovered his traces. The top priority now was to escape from the city.

Obviously, his identity has been exposed and Haiyang County can no longer stay.

After just a moment's thought, Fang Qifu thought of an escape route.

As a running start, he pushed his feet hard on the wall, grabbed the eaves with his hands, and with a little effort, he jumped up to the roof.

Fang Qifu leaned down and moved quickly on the beam.

Despite this, he was discovered by a sharp-eyed archer.

"There's someone on the roof!"

Shopkeeper Hu followed the sound and exclaimed: "No, the thief is running away first, chase him quickly!"

The north of the city is an area where residential buildings gather, and alleys are connected together, which is convenient for Fang Qifu.

At this moment, he was like a vigorous cheetah, running wildly on the roof. In a flash, he left the archers led by Shopkeeper Hu far behind and fled towards the nearby North City Gate.

Fortunately, shopkeeper Hu had been careful and ordered people to block both ends of the alley.

After running for a while, the ground in front of me suddenly became empty. There were no houses to rely on, and outside the alley, there were hundreds of policemen on standby.

One of the detectives shouted: "Look, Zhang Dutou!"

Zhang Dutou had already discovered Fang Qifu without the need for the police to remind him.

After a brief moment of confusion, he immediately ordered: "This person is the Seven Buddhas of the Thief's Head, arrest him!"

Fang Qifu had no expression on his face, jumped down and fell into the small courtyard.

Looking around the small courtyard, he quickly stepped forward, pulled off all the clothes to be dried, lifted the clothes drying pole and used it as a spear.

boom!
With a loud noise, the door of the small courtyard was knocked open, and more than a dozen catchers filed in.

"Well done!"

Fang Qifu showed no fear in his eyes and held the bamboo pole instead of retreating.

woohoo~
A bamboo pole was in his hand, and the afterimage was danced out, making waves of breaking wind.

As the saying goes, a sword and a stick last a lifetime.

Marksmanship is born out of battle formations and is quick to learn, but if you want to master it and even enter the palace, even if you are extremely talented, you will need to practice hard every day for decades.

Fang Qifu is a good wielder of the spear. Every time he swings it, the force goes straight through the top of the bamboo pole.

It seemed to be light and fluttery, but when it landed on the catcher, it weighed more than a thousand kilograms.

clap clap clap!
Following bursts of crisp sounds, seven or eight policemen fell to the ground and howled in an instant.

The other detectives looked horrified and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Zhang Dutou, who was outside the hospital, saw this and shouted: "The rebels are fierce, set a net!"

The next moment, three police officers rushed into the small courtyard holding nets.

This kind of net is almost the same as the fishing net used by fishermen. The difference is that the net is full of tiny iron hooks. Once trapped, the iron hooks will penetrate into the flesh. The more the opponent struggles, the deeper the iron hooks will penetrate. .

Generally, it is rarely used by police officers. It is only used when arresting gangsters or desperadoes.

Fang Qifu naturally knew the insidious nature of the net, so he took the initiative to rush forward with a bamboo pole in hand.

"Side by shoulder!"

The three catchers holding the nets were all veterans. They immediately spread out and threw out the nets from different directions.

Swish!
The net is spread out in the air, covering an extremely wide area.

Fang Qifu's reaction was not unpleasant. He quickly rushed forward to avoid the two nets. He raised the bamboo pole in his hand and used the length of the bamboo pole to hold the net.

Immediately, he exerted force on his waist, and the bamboo pole came down, hitting a policeman on the forehead.

It was obviously just a bamboo pole, but it was like an iron spine. In an instant, blood flowed from the forehead of the policeman, and he screamed and fell to the ground.

With one successful blow, Fang Qifu immediately rushed out of the courtyard holding a bamboo pole.

He knew that he could not fight for long, otherwise he would have no chance of escaping when hundreds of archers came after him.

Zhang Dutou and the other detectives did not expect that Fang Qifu would be so tough and dare to fight out alone.

A bamboo pole was used by Fang Qifu to make a tiger look powerful, making waves of breaking wind.

For a moment, the man fell on his back and was caught off guard by Fang Qifu.

The police officers on the periphery were frightened when they saw how brave Fang Qifu was.

"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

Seeing this, Fang Qifu roared loudly and rushed into the crowd holding a bamboo pole.

Wow.

More than a hundred arresters dispersed in a flurry, and no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Fang Qifu was overjoyed. After breaking out of the siege, he ran towards the city gate.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Hu came chasing after him with his archers.

Seeing a group of policemen watching Fang Qifu leave, he angrily cursed: "You trash, hurry up and chase after me!"

What a bunch of rubbish.

Hundreds of police officers were escaped by a thief armed with a bamboo pole. It was so embarrassing that they were thrown into grandma's house.

He knew that the officialdom under Zhao Song was corrupt, but he did not expect it to be so outrageous. "Hurry up!"

Zhang Dutou looked ashamed, roared, and took the lead in chasing after him.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Hu felt a little regretful.

At that time, when Fang Qi Buddha was found on the roof, he should be ordered to shoot him with arrows.

It's a pity that he was greedy. He felt that he had laid a dragnet and the other party was alone, so he planned to capture him alive.

After all, capturing alive and shooting to death are not the same feats.

However, despite all his calculations, he did not expect that Fang Qifu would be so tough and the Haiyang County police officers would be so corrupt.

"Go away!"

Fang Qifu's eyes were red, like a ferocious beast, knocking away the people in front of him.

"what!"

A little woman didn't react in time and was hit head-on by Fang Qifu. She screamed on the spot and flew backwards.

Fang Qifu only felt numbness in his ribs, as if he had been stung by a mosquito.

He didn't pay attention and continued to run wildly.

But before he could even take two steps, his body suddenly went numb and he fell heavily to the ground.

Fang Qifu wanted to get up, but his limbs refused to move. A sore and numb feeling spread throughout his body, making him unable to move.

It wasn't until this moment that he discovered that a silver needle had been inserted into the Qimen point on his left rib for some time.

Most of the silver needles were inserted into the body, leaving only an inch of the needles outside.

Conspiracy!

In just a moment, Fang Qifu understood. He tried his best to turn his eyes and look towards the place where the woman fell just now.

As a result, the ground was empty, and wherever there was a figure of the little woman, she had long since disappeared.

"Buddha Mother, Maitreya Sect!"

Fang Qifu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his mouth.

Such insidious methods came from the same lineage as the Maitreya Cult, and the person who plotted against him was a beautiful little woman. The combination of the two made him think of the Maitreya Cult in an instant.

But, why would Mother Buddha betray herself?

Did she think that after Manichaeism was destroyed, Han Zhen would let her Maitreya religion go?

Before he could think about it, the policeman behind him had already caught up with him.

As if they were worried that he would escape again, two detectives pounced on him, one on the left and the other on the right, and pressed him tightly. The other took out iron cuffs and locked his hands and feet.

"Hahaha, God help me!"

Shopkeeper Hu looked at Fang Qifu who was captured alive, and felt a surge of ecstasy in his heart. He ordered: "Take him to a prison and keep him under strict supervision!"

On the street corner not far away, a pretty little woman watched this scene quietly.

It was the woman who was knocked away by Fang Qifu just now.

When Fang Qifu was arrested and taken away quickly, she turned around and disappeared around the corner.

After walking around in the alley for a while, he finally stopped in front of a courtyard, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door with three light and two heavy sounds.

The next moment, the courtyard door opened from the inside, and the little woman quickly stepped in.

In the yard, a peasant woman with a blue cloth on her head was feeding chickens.

The peasant woman had a sallow complexion and looked to be in her forties. Anyone who saw her would think she was an ordinary person.

Hearing the footsteps, the peasant woman asked in a slightly older voice without looking back, "How's it going?"

"Reporting to the Buddha's mother, Fang Qifu has been captured alive by the government."

The little woman said with a look of disgust on her face: "The government's arrest of Kuai Xin is incompetent. If it hadn't been for the disciples' intervention, there is no way that Fang Qifu would have been able to escape."

The Mother Buddha said calmly: "The officials under the Zhao and Song Dynasties were corrupt and only knew how to bully the people. However, Fang Qifu was very powerful in martial arts and had few opponents. Even if he escaped, it was normal. Now that he has been caught, everyone is happy. "

Hearing this, the little woman breathed a sigh of relief and said with a relaxed expression: "Finally we are rid of these lunatics."

The Buddha's Mother sighed slightly: "People's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants. Isn't it the same for my predecessor Buddha? As a result, the imperial court was furious and suffered a disaster."

The previous Buddhist disciple was Gao Tansheng from Huaizhou.

During the Renzong period, those who raised the banner of rebellion together with Gao Tansheng were Wang Ze of Beizhou and Liu Ningjing of Shuzhong.

At that time, the Maitreya sect was very powerful, with followers spread all over the country, which gave Song Renzong a headache.

However, as the imperial court suppressed the rebellion and arrested Maitreya believers, the Maitreya religion suffered a devastating blow.

The remaining Maitreya religion lies dormant among the people and lingers on.

At the same time, Manichaeism, which had always been tepid, took advantage of the situation and became powerful.

When Fang La rebelled, it reached its peak.

After Fang La was captured alive by the Western Army, Fang Qifu did not give up and used force to coerce Maitreya, Nestorian, Wo and other cults.

In fact, when the Maitreya religion was founded in the early days, it was not actually a cult, but was born out of Buddhism and was one of the ten sects.

The future Maitreya Buddha is worshiped in the religion.

The reason why Maitreya Religion has been banned by all dynasties is the core of Maitreya Religion's teachings - the future!
There are so many articles that can be written about the word "future".

Especially some careerists.

Why was the Li family, with Lao Tzu as its ancestor, usurped by Wu Zetian?

Because Wu Zetian ordered people to fabricate the "Dayun Sutra" to claim that Maitreya was reborn, it became Wu Zhou's public opinion tool to seize the power of Li Tang.

After the Shenlong coup, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty directly issued an edict and promulgated the "Edict forbidding Demons and Corruptions", labeling the Maitreya Sect as a cult and severely punishing it.

In addition, when Gao Tansheng rebelled, the slogan he shouted was, 'Sakyamuni Buddha has declined, but Maitreya Buddha will last.'

It can be said that the teachings of Maitreya are naturally suitable as slogans for rebellion.

After suffering a catastrophe, the Maitreya Sect became completely honest. This generation of Buddhist concubines began to seek a way out and absorb and learn from the teachings of the Pure Land Sect.

The teaching gradually changed from 'rebirth in the Saha world' to 'white lotus is born in the fire'.

But the tree wanted to be still but the wind didn't stop. She wanted to calm down, but Fang Qifu didn't want to.

From the beginning to the end, the Buddha's Mother was not optimistic about Fang Qifu. She did not want to suffer another disaster, but because of Fang's overwhelming power, she could only compromise temporarily.

Now that the Qi army is attacking Fujian, they finally have the opportunity to get rid of Fang Qifu.

Suddenly, the little woman asked: "Buddha Mother, what should we do in the future?"

After a brief period of joy, confusion followed.

If Fang Qi Buddha is captured alive, Manichaeism will also face a disaster, but what about their Maitreya religion?

With the temperament of the Emperor of Qi, he would definitely not let go of the Maitreya Cult.

The Buddha's mother replied: "For the present plan, the only way is to surrender."

"surrender?"

The little woman was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief on her face.

The Buddha's mother sighed helplessly: "The Emperor of Qi had already issued an order to eradicate evil cults in various places when he was on the Liangzhe Road. We can't hide for long."

In front of the court, cults were like rats hiding in dark tunnels.

If the court doesn't care, the cult can naturally survive and survive in the cracks.

But once the court is determined to destroy the cult, the consequences can be foreseen.

Obviously, the Emperor of Qi was determined to eradicate the cult, and he even did not hesitate to mobilize the people and offer rewards.

Cults can survive because they are hidden among the people.

When people start to report them, where can they hide?
The little woman asked: "But...will the Emperor of Qi agree?"

Mother Buddha smiled slightly: "You have to give it a try anyway. As long as you are sincere enough, you can always impress the other party."

She was confident and believed that the Emperor of Qi would never refuse her sincerity!
