    A moment later, Samantabhadra was seen walking over surrounded by a group of young monks. Songshen came to greet him, and Earth Walker quickly picked up a pistol and followed him.  After the two sides bowed, Samantabhadra asked: "Mr. Songshen, Mohe Bodhi Temple is a pure land of Buddhism. Why did you lead troops to break in today?" "Master Samantabhadra, I entered the temple today because I received news.  : Someone in Mohe Bodhi Temple colluded with the compliant soldiers outside the city to lure the compliant soldiers into the city and massacre the New Army soldiers. They also secretly transported weapons into the city. They wanted to harm me personally, so I led the troops into the temple! ¡± Pu!  When Xian heard this, he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart. What Song Shen said at this time was the same as the situation during the secret meeting that day. It was obvious that he had obtained practical information and was not just trying to make excuses. But now he could only grit his teeth and hold on.  Thinking of this, Samantabhadra recited the Buddha's name and said: "Amitabha, the monks in this temple have always understood the Buddha's teachings. They are not doing ordinary things, let alone colluding with the army and smuggling weapons as you said. Mr. Songshen, you still have to do it."  Hurry up and exit the temple. The temple will conduct self-examination for what you said!" Puxian said these words, which has already given Songcan a lot of face. It should be noted that even if the monks in the temple violated the law in Myanmar,  The officials usually hand it over to Mohe Bodhi Temple and let them handle it according to the temple's precepts.  Song Shen looked at Samantabhadra, who was wearing a gorgeous cassock and a solemn appearance. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Honored Master, I have solid evidence. There are people in the temple who are smuggling weapons and plotting against evil. There are also people in Bagan who are involved in the conspiracy.  There are a lot of people involved. I must take those involved back for strict interrogation and catch all the evil thieves!" A young monk next to Puxian couldn't bear it anymore and sneered: "Bring the monks back from the temple!  ? Songshen, you are so majestic. It should be noted that even the kings of Myanmar have never brought back the monks of Mohe Bodhi Temple for interrogation. Today you dare to say such things. Please note that this is Mohe Bodhi Temple, not you.  A place to act wild!¡± The young monk¡¯s words were like a spark, igniting the anger of the monks. All the monks pointed at Song Shen and shouted loudly. Song Shen calmed down at this time, and he turned a deaf ear to the monks¡¯ scoldings.  After making a gesture, the soil traveler led the soldiers and pushed the two monks over. The soldiers behind him also carried two wooden boxes and placed them in front of Samantabhadra. When he opened them, he saw that they were full of short guns and yellow bullets.  Songshen pointed to the two monks and the wooden box and said: "Honored Master, when these two monks were handing over weapons to the Shun army outside the city, we caught them, and they both got the loot. They also had the Mohe Bodhi Temple with them.  He also claimed to be a monk in the temple." Puxian looked at the two exhausted monks. It was obvious that they had suffered a lot after being caught by the soldiers, and he couldn't help but feel confused. He had also thought about it before.  The situation may be very bad, but at most it is just a lawsuit. I never expected that Song Shen would be caught and he would get all the stolen goods. These two monks are his disciples. Even if he had the shame to deny it to his face,  There were so many acquaintances nearby who couldn't hide it, let alone these bullets. There was no way he could hide it.  Thinking of this, Puxian could only lower his head and whispered: "Mr. Songshen, yes, these two people are the disciples of the poor monk. However, the poor monk has no idea what they did. It should be their unauthorized actions.  Mohe Bodhi Temple is a pure place of Buddhism, and there are no weapons. These two people have violated the Buddhist rules. The poor monk has kicked them out of the temple and left them at your disposal. The poor monk has nothing to say!"  At the exit, everyone in the venue, including Song Shen and the two disciples, were stunned.  Song Shen was surprised because he did not expect that the other party would put all the blame on these two disciples and completely separate himself from the other monks in the temple; while the two disciples did not expect that the master would buy them so cleanly.  Liliu, the two of them were able to participate in such confidential matters. Naturally, they were quite trusted among Puxian's disciples and were quite shrewd and capable in handling matters.  One of them was so anxious that he pointed at the monks beside Puxian and shouted loudly: "No, no, I contacted the army outside the city, and I did not do it on my own to transport weapons into the city, but because I was respected.  The commander ordered. There are many people involved in the conspiracy. You guys, Powu and Huhun, have a lot of money in your waist, and you still have the pistols I brought back last time. Don¡¯t think about getting rid of yourself! " Everyone immediately followed that!  Looking in the direction of the monk's finger, sure enough, the monks pointed by his finger looked frightened, and subconsciously covered their waists with their hands.  The earth traveler reacted very quickly, snorted coldly, and then led a few soldiers to press towards the monks.  Pu Xian was about to say something when he heard a gunshot. The monk he had just identified covered his chest, shook his body, and fell to the ground motionless.  There was chaos in the square. The gunshot seemed to be a signal, and the gunshots rang out like a barrage of cannons. Some monks and soldiers fell to the ground. People in the square immediately cried for their fathers and mothers and fled in all directions.  Only Puxian stood in the middle, looking numbly at the crowds of people running around and shooting, with a dull expression on his face.?It was like living in another world, turning a blind eye to the fighting and dangers around him. Finally, his good intentions ran out, and a bullet hit him. Puxian's straight body shook a little, and he extended his right hand.  He waved twice, as if trying to catch something, and then fell to the ground, dead.  His gorgeous cassock stood out among the many corpses on the ground.  The moment after the first gunshot was fired, Song Shen was thrown to the ground by Earth Walker.  He only heard the intensive gunshots and the familiar yelling of Tu Walker in his ears. After about two or three minutes, Tu Walker resumed effective command of the soldiers and led the soldiers to cover Songchen Xiang Temple.  He retreated outside and looked at the corpses scattered around the square. Songshen couldn't help but feel a little confused. He never expected that there would be such a result. He actually shot in the Mohe Bodhi Temple, a holy place in the eyes of the Burmese people. Those who he respected in the past  The monks of the gods are actually like noble lords, betraying their companions, killing people and silencing them, acting dirty and shameless, even the Samantabhadra Master is the same. What on earth is going on in this world?  "Boss, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Tu Xingzhe saw Song Shen's face pale and absent-minded, and hurriedly greeted him in a low voice.  "It's nothing, I'm fine!" Song Shen shook his head. After a while, he asked in a low voice: "Trail Walker, I didn't expect these monks to be like this. Today really surprised me!" "Nothing strange.  "Yes!" The soil traveler sneered: "These monks eat whole grains and poop out like ordinary people. Is it different if they wear cassocks? They are different from the nobles."  The only difference for those who have to work for rice is that the nobles put a knife on our necks and robbed us, but they used other methods to coax and deceive us. "After listening to the words of the soil walker, Song!  Shen lowered his head and said nothing. Tu Xingzhe's words made him feel a feeling he had never felt before. Although emotionally he didn't like the other person's evaluation of the monk, but these days' actual experience told him that Tu Xingzhe's words were right.  At least it is consistent with reality to a considerable extent.  The knowledgeable and personable Master Samantabhadra and the extremely vicious and tyrannical King Meng Ji were on the same boat. In other words, they were like demons with several heads in mythology. Master Samantabhadra was the one with the smile.  The head, and King Meng Ji is the one with the big mouth. Although it looks very different, these heads are actually on the same body. They are the source of all the disasters for poor people like them. If they want to live a good life,  In the future, I will have to smash both heads.  "Earthwalker, you are right! They are the same, growing on the same body!" Song Shen said suddenly. He turned around and looked at the man who was a little overwhelmed by his sudden words.  Earth Walker hugged the other person affectionately and said, "Dear brother, thank you for removing the fog from my eyes and letting me see the truth!" Although Earth Walker didn't quite understand the meaning of Song Shen's words, he still  Feeling the other party's warm feelings, he also tightened his arms and reciprocated the other party's warm feelings.  After a moment, the two people let go of their arms, and Tu Xingzhe asked in a low voice: "Where are we going now?" "Let's leave here first and join the main force, and then we are going to leave the city and leave Bagan!" "Leave Bagan?" Tu Xingzhe  The traveler was stunned. He looked back at the soldiers behind him and lowered his voice: "Boss, why are you leaving Bagan City? Are you afraid of those monks? If you leave the city, how can these thousands of people get enough food?  Not to mention the salt and other things, not to mention that the brothers will feel that there is no hope, I am afraid that most of them will disappear in two days! " "You are right, it is true that we will not be able to get enough food if we leave Bagan City."  Song Shen nodded. Just as what the earth traveler said just now, most of Myanmar was still in the Middle Ages at that time. The surplus of agricultural production was very limited. Only a few such as Mandalay, Bagan, and Yangon served as religious and religious institutions.  Only cities that are political and economic centers or important ports have a large amount of surplus food and other materials. If the rebels leave Bagan, they will have neither the money to buy food nor the support of civil institutions along the way, plus the frustration caused by leaving the city.  , will soon be reduced to a bandit group and forced to disintegrate.  When Tu Xingzhe saw that Song Shen did not insist on leaving his opinion, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly smiled and said: "Actually, those monks are also good at chanting sutras. The brothers just saw clearly who fired the first shot. They really moved.  I'm not afraid of them anymore!" "Don't say it. It's better to discuss such a big thing next time than to just think about it here!" "That's right!" "That's right!  In front of the old house where we are, there are two to three hundred men standing or sitting in different colors. The only thing these men in different clothes have in common is that they all have a white or red rope tied around their necks.  strips of cloth, which representsThey are all officers and backbones of the insurrectionists.  In the past few days, Song Shen divided the soldiers who participated in the uprising into more than forty squads according to their place of origin. Then, through the recommendation of the squad soldiers, squad leaders and deputy squad leaders were produced, thus establishing a basic command system among the mutinous soldiers.  The first thing he did when he returned from Mohe Bodhi Temple was to summon the captains and vice-captains of all the teams to discuss the next move of the rebels.  Song Shen walked out of the door, and there was a sensation in the crowd. Those sitting on the ground quickly stood up to show respect for the arrival of the leader.  Song Shen's eyes swept over everyone's faces and said: "Brothers, the sentry at the city gate captured two monks from Mohe Bodhi Temple this morning. In their luggage, the sentry found a large number of bullets. After interrogation, these  The two monks confessed that they were ordered by the Samantabhadra of Mohe Bodhi Temple to go outside the city to request the Shun army to enter the city and massacre us. These weapons were given to them by the Shun army to deal with us! "  As soon as the voice fell, the crowd of onlookers immediately began to whisper among themselves. Due to time constraints, only some officers knew the details, and most of the remaining people knew nothing about everything. They heard that the monks who usually believed in the faith actually colluded with the aliens to deal with them.  Most of them forgot about the curse for a while and just stood there dumbfounded!  "In order to confirm that everything was true, I took the two monks to Mohe Bodhi Temple for a confrontation not long ago, but Puxian and other monks in the temple saw what happened and shot at us. We had no choice but to fire back and exit the temple.  "Having said this, Song Shen stepped aside.
