Chapter 734: The First Brahmin High Priest
"We have been resting for three days. If we wait one more day and the enemy does not make any move, we will march directly!" Zhang Song said with a slightly tired sigh.
There are masters among the Kushans. Even after being slapped in the face like this, the other side can still hold it in, forcing him to be bolder.
But the further he goes, the greater the pressure Guan Yu will have to bear in the future, and he really doesn't dare to gamble.
"That's what I mean. Our purpose is to act as bait. If we continue going forward, it will be really dangerous. The further we go, the more prosperous Kushan becomes. This place is no less prosperous than the former Central Plains!" Zhang Su agreed with his brother without hesitation.
It may seem like a big move now, but Zhang Song and Zhang Su both understand that they are just paper tigers that may even burst with a single poke.
The prosperous Kushan area west of the city of Purpura opened the eyes of the two brothers Zhang Song and Zhang Su. They realized that there was such a fertile place in the world.
The Ganges and Indus rivers nourish this land, making it a very fertile place with basically three crops a year.
It is precisely because of this unique condition that the life of the Kushan people is not difficult. The caste system is also based on this geographical advantage. If the climate is really the same as that in the Central Plains.
No system can resist the desire to survive.
Since ancient times, unless people can no longer survive, it is basically unlikely that uprisings or riots will break out.
"General, military advisor, someone wants to see you!"
Zhang Song was stunned and looked at Guan Yu who was sitting in the main seat.
Guan Yu nodded and said, "Bring him in!"
A little old man followed the guards into the tent.
“Hiss… It really is the power of God that is as great as a prison. No wonder the general was able to attack the Galan God and become a god himself!”
The old man gasped as he looked at Guan Yu, his face full of horror. To be honest, he had seen him in the book of fate, but he didn't expect that seeing Guan Yu in real life would be so oppressive.
The difference between the two is like the difference between seeing a tiger in a zoo and seeing a tiger in the wild.
"Why are you so frightened, old man? The God of Galan is not an evil god! I think you know a lot, why don't we talk about it?" Zhang Song said with a smile.
Although the other party was terrified, his attitude towards the God of Galan in his words made him feel that they might have caught a big fish.
"Hehehe, this old man has met everyone from the Han Empire!" The old man composed himself and spoke with a sense of nostalgia.
Guan Yu squinted his eyes and looked at the old man opposite. There was a very strange aura, which was somewhat similar to Nanhua Zuo Ci overall, but the other party was definitely not an immortal, but a physical being.
"A powerful person who can break through boundaries?" Guan Yu said slowly.
"A powerful world-breaker? Is that the name used in the Central Plains? We are more accustomed to calling ourselves gods and Buddhas!" The old man looked at Guan Yu calmly.
He cursed Mu Jianlian a thousand times in his heart, and only now did he understand why Mu Jianlian came to find him.
Not only did he want to know the attitude of the reclusive faction from him, he also wanted to use him to pass information to the Han Dynasty so that he could concentrate on dealing with the Han Dynasty. What a contradictory guy.
At the same time , he had a better understanding of Mu Jianlian. It turned out that Mu Jianlian saw more than him?
"Oh?" Guan Yu opened his eyes a little, and put his pressure on the old man, locking his eyes on him tightly. The other party was too dangerous, and he couldn't let him get away with it.
He was not afraid, but he did not want to see any mishap with Zhang Su or Zhang Song.
"Lord Galan, there is no need to do this. I am just an old Brahmin who has abandoned the human world and lived in seclusion. I am not here to cause trouble for the general!" The old man's hair stood on end.
Are you kidding? Even the top-level strong men cannot ignore Guan Yu's lock, not to mention that he is not one of the top ones. He is just an existence similar to an immortal.
"I'm very confused. Why can't I sense any ill will from you? Strictly speaking, we have occupied the territory of Kushan. Shouldn't they kill us when they see us?" Zhang Song's face was full of confusion. He could vaguely see something wrong, but he couldn't understand it at all.
"Why do we have to kill them? Aren't there people from Kushan Empire outside? How many of them would dare to take action?" the old man forced a smile.
Guan Yu never relaxed his lock on him. If he made any mistake, he would be hit by a thundering blow.
Even if he had abolished his ability to see the future, he could still sense that if Guan Yu struck him with one sword, he would definitely die.
"Interesting, General Guan, there is no need to be on guard, he means no harm!" Zhang Song smiled and said to Guan Yu.
“……” Guan Yu looked at the old man with a little disgust. It was obvious that he was another traitor. Unlike Lidas, this old man was a pure traitor.
"Brahmins, we should be your enemies!" Zhang Su asked curiously. In his opinion, anyone could join them for the sake of interests, but not the Brahmins. They have eradicated the roots of the Brahmins, so why would they still cooperate with them?
"Haha, that's what you think. For us, your occupation of this place may be a good thing for the people!"
After Guan Yu gave up the lock, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and spoke calmly again.
"Those guys who were greedy for power had taken the wrong path, and it was only right that they were destroyed by the Han Dynasty. You should have sensed some things, the true appearance of those Kushans outside!" said the old man, pointing outside.
"The people here are no longer human! They have completely become slaves of God!" the old man said with a hint of nostalgia. "Hehe, the Han Dynasty probably doesn't know yet, Brahma is real, but he has fallen into a deep sleep forever!"
Guan Yu frowned, then quickly checked himself. After finding that there was nothing wrong, he looked up at the old man.
"God Galan, there is no need to do this. We have already discovered what you have discovered!" The old man said indifferently, "After all, I am the first high priest of the Brahmins!"
"Becoming a god or Buddha was also our original idea!"
"I came here today to see the Han Dynasty that can break through its fate in the future, to see what we expected in the beginning!"
Zhang Song and Zhang Su were shocked. This fish was bigger than they had imagined and revealed too much information.
"You are quite strong, why don't you give it a try?" Guan Yu said suddenly.
“Hehehe, in my life till now, I have tried to bend destiny for nearly thirty times, and all failed!” said the old man, shaking his head.
"I have no other purpose for coming here today except to get an answer!" The old man looked at Guan Yu.
"explain!"
"How did the Han Dynasty break through its fate? According to destiny, the Han Dynasty should have perished in internal strife like our Kushan Empire, but why did the Han Dynasty break through its fate?"
The old man suddenly became a little crazy. He was young once, and he even personally participated in the establishment of the Kushan Empire. However, he could not break free from his fate and could only watch everything go according to his fate.
But the Han Dynasty should have perished together with them. Why did it suddenly break its fate, while the Kushans just died in a different way?
