Chapter 519 Lamaism
Shen Changgong was not surprised by his reaction.
After all, whether in the previous Kundi or in Qidi, his reputation was not good, and the local officials of the previous dynasty would portray him as a big devil.
Some are as strong as a tiger and as ferocious as a bear, some are as vicious as a wolf and kill people without mercy, some have horns on their heads and a bloody mouth, and some can eat three children in one meal.
There are all kinds of images, but they are not human.
Shen Changgong waved his hand and told him to go down and take care of his daughter first.
Suddenly, Xiao Qiao, who had been covering her eyes in front of Shen Changgong, spoke.
"I see. They are Lamaists, a sect west of Chuan and Qian."
"Ok?"
Shen Changgong rode his horse to the side. It was already completely dark at this time. The visibility was poor and he could not see those cruel things clearly. Only then did Shen Changgong let go of her eyes.
He dismounted with Xiao Qiao and came to a quiet place.
Xiao Qiao raised her cute little face and said to Shen Changgong,
“In fact, I just saw that those people’s skins were peeled off. It was so cruel.
I remembered a travelogue written by a senior expert that I had read before. It said that the area to the west of Qian Kingdom and Chuan Kingdom was a region jointly managed by the chieftains and the Lamaism. There was no country name there, just an area.
That Lamaism uses the skin, bones, and skulls of young girls to make ritual instruments and vessels, and it is said that this can gain the power of Buddha.
The drum is made of human skin, and the sound of the drum can be heard by the gods.
Dharma instruments can communicate with the Buddha.
The chieftains in the southwest were very cruel. Their people were all serfs, whose status was lower than that of slaves. They even ate people.
Both the Qian Kingdom and the Chuan Kingdom are extremely wary of them."
Shen Changgong's face turned pale and he turned to look at those people. He recalled some ethnic customs from his previous life.
But what he thought more about was whether these people were also supported by the Qian Kingdom.
After all, there was a precedent before, in which the Qian Kingdom supported the Yellow Fish Sect in the Yan Kingdom to cause trouble for the Yan Kingdom.
Given the despicable and shameless nature of the State of Qian and the indecisive character of Emperor Qian, he might hesitate for a long time before confronting the State of Yan. However, Emperor Qian was more than capable of spending money to let the Yan people fight against each other, engaging in proxy wars, and supporting rebel forces to disgust the State of Yan.
Moreover, this southwestern chieftain is adjacent to the Qian Kingdom, and it is very likely that Emperor Qian will bribe a group of people to send them over.
Just then, several guards came over with torches and some magical weapons in their hands.
The guard said,
“Your Highness, please look at this staff. The bottom is made of wood, and on top is a baby’s head. It looks like it was dead no more than three months ago.
There is also this string of Buddhist beads, which are uneven and probably carved from bones. We speculate that they may be human bones.
And this oil lamp, originally unremarkable, but I suddenly discovered that the smell of the oil in it is very similar to the smell of burning corpses. It might be made of human fat."
Xiao Qiao was so scared that she shrank behind Shen Changgong and said,
"That's right, it must be those southwestern toasts."
"These beasts!"
Shen Changgong gritted his teeth and said,
"Have you forced them to reveal their lair?"
"It's under review."
"Speed up and destroy their lair tonight. We must not allow them to harm anyone again."
"As ordered!"
After the guards left, screams were heard again from the other side.
Shen Changgong ordered people to collect these sinful instruments as evidence to warn future generations.
The torture was intensified, and finally someone could no longer hold on, his faith collapsed, and he shouted,
"Stop torturing me. Our lair is in the valley behind Shenglong Mountain in the southeast. We still have thousands of followers, spreading our teachings in the surrounding areas. Stop hitting me, just kill me."
Shen Changgong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately walked over and asked the man,
"Tell me about your organizational structure and the identity of this monk."
"He is one of our four great monks. Our sect is called the Sect of All Beings. The leader is the abbot, and under him are four great monks who spread the teachings and manage the believers, as well as hundreds of monks and thousands of believers.
This person is one of the monk officials, he holds a high position of power and authority, and he knows the most.”
Shen Changgong nodded and said,
"Twenty men, except the one who confessed and the monk, will be assigned to escort these prisoners back to the barracks."
"As ordered!"
Those who were beaten to death were thrown directly into the fire outside the village, and those who were not beaten to death were taken away for trial.
Only the man who confessed and the monk were left.
Shen Changgong squatted down and said to the monk who had been beaten into a blood gourd,
"Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"
"Pu... Pushen sentient beings..."
"Even the King of Hell thinks he's a good person when he sees people like you, and he wants to save all living beings?
Let me ask you another question: How many people like you have been sent out from your lair to harm the people? And how many of them are still outside now?"
What Shen Changgong was most worried about was that after destroying the old nest, it would alert the evil monks outside and allow them to roam around and harm people everywhere. It would then be difficult to catch them.
"No...don't know."
This monk is a tough guy. He never makes a sound no matter how he is beaten.
Shen Changgong sighed and said,
"Let's take this guy back to the camp. He has faith in his heart, so it's hard to get anything out of him here. Let's go and destroy his lair."
The guards also handed the monk to the people escorting the prisoners and asked them to take all the prisoners and Buddhist instruments back.
Shen Changgong picked up Xiao Qiao and asked,
"What about you? Will you also go back with the prisoner group?"
"Xiao Qiao is not going back. Xiao Qiao wants to go and gain some experience. Xiao Qiao is not afraid of you killing people. You only kill bad people. Xiao Qiao can help you purify the sins of killing and accumulate merits."
"Then you are not allowed to be frightened and cry."
"Xiao Qiao, be good. Xiao Qiao, don't cry. Xiao Qiao didn't cry just now."
This little guy is young, but he has a very tough character.
"Well, our Xiao Qiao is awesome."
Shen Changgong rubbed her hair lovingly, then carried her onto the horse and said to the others,
"All troops, mount your horses. This captive will lead the way. Let's wipe out that evil cult!"
Although the journey was slow at night, the moonlight was very good tonight and the sky was cloudless. Although the visibility was not as good as during the day, we could still see things and there were shadows on the ground.
It is urgent to eradicate the cult, otherwise if these people don’t return overnight, they will be alert.
Under the guidance of the captives, they left the village under the stars and moon, and headed towards the southeast in a mighty force.
After they left, the new village chief Zhuangzhuang comforted his daughter, looked in the direction they left, sighed, and his eyes were filled with tears of excitement.
“Everyone says that Prince Lanling of Yan was a ruthless killer. Even the State of Qi fell at his hands.
But most people in the world spread false information.
Seeing you today, Prince Lanling of Great Yan is truly the most powerful judge of the time.
We, the people of Daqi, are finally saved."
