Countless Buddha statues illuminated by red candles in the Daxiong Treasure Hall shine, and the bronze incense tripod is filled with incense bunches. The main hall was filled with smoke, and groups of believers bowed down to the Buddha in front of the monks on both sides of the forest.

In the abbot's courtyard, Hui Rong is receiving Tie Li, who has come here secretly.

"Amitabha, I don't know what Lord Tie has to do when he comes to the temple. ”

"Master Huirong, this matter is a long story. When Tie served as the criminal officer of Kaifeng, he was ordered by Prime Minister Liu Cheng to secretly investigate the detention of soldiers by Zhiwenke, the head of the forbidden army.

not only collected evidence of his corruption and perversion of the law, but also found out the people behind it, Cheng Huangshang and Hou Baoliang, the right prime minister, in the imperial history.

Who knew that these traitors had eyes and ears in the Criminal Division, and Huang Sheng and Zhi had strong martial arts skills and attacked Tie.

After Tie escaped by chance, he learned that they not only destroyed the evidence, but also beat him upside down, slandering Chen Ying and Gao Taiwei, the chief catchers of the six doors who knew about the matter, in front of His Majesty.

As a result, the two loyal ministers were wronged and humiliated.

Among the destroyed evidence, Tie also found evidence that Zhiwen's traitors colluded with Western Xia. This time, the traitor went to Western Xia in front of His Majesty on the grounds of opening up the Western Xia trade route.

In fact, it was to hand over the secrets of the Great Song Dynasty to the Western Xia.

After Prime Minister Liu learned about it, he wrote this traitor's crime overnight, and asked Tie to hand it over to the abbot, wanting the decent men of the martial arts to get rid of the traitor for the Great Song Dynasty.

Now His Majesty is bewitched by traitorous ministers, and he can't listen to the advice of loyal ministers, so he implores the abbot to eliminate the harm for my Great Song Dynasty, and never let the secrets of the Great Song Dynasty fall into the hands of the enemy. ”

Tie Li's face was full of dust, his hair was scattered, and his clothes were full of tears from the blades, and he looked embarrassed, so he was not miserable.

"This. ”

Hui Rong looked at the iron force in front of him, and he was very hesitant in his heart. This matter is related to the officials of the imperial court, Shaolin is both a Buddhist temple and a sect, so it should not be taken care of.

Tie Li saw that Huirong was hesitant, and used the method of agitation: "The master of Xuzhu in Shaolin back then, led the Central Plains martial arts to defend the country, what a hero. Isn't it that now, Shaolin will only be able to protect himself. ”

When Huirong heard this, he was afraid that the person in front of him would deceive him, after all, everything was his own words. This charge has to find someone to verify the authenticity.

Clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, Lord Tie, please wait for a while, the old man still has to discuss with all the senior brothers." ”

"Tie understands, the abbot please. Tie Li nodded.

After a while, Huirong, who had verified the handwriting and seal, returned to the room and said with a solemn expression: "Amitabha, after discussing with all the senior brothers, Lao Wei agreed that Shaolin should come forward to remove this scourge for the Great Song Dynasty.

This Zhijiao head was originally expelled from my Shaolin because of the rules and precepts, and now he has done such a hurtful thing, and I Shaolin cannot escape the blame.

It's just that this traitor is strong in martial arts, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to subdue him with Shaolin alone.

Lao Wei wrote a few copies of this hand, and invited a few martial arts colleagues to work together to get rid of this fang. ”

Tie Li clasped his hands into fists and said with a look of reverence: "Abbot Huirong is really a virtuous monk. ”

Kaifeng is not too far from the Western Xia border, and there is only one Hedong Road in between.

In the evening, Zhiwen and his entourage walked to a mountain forest on Hedong Road. At this time, I saw floating clouds all over the air, a light one, a thick one, and the sky was like a faded gray cloth.

Estimating that there would be heavy rain pouring down soon, Zhiwen led the guards to find a dilapidated temple in disrepair and overgrown with grass to take shelter from the rain.

The storm shook the whole mountain forest, and the thunder was mixed with lightning, and the lightning was thundering.

A bonfire was lit in the temple, and the guards consciously formed a circle to protect the Zhiwen in the middle.

Zhiwen looked at the broken Buddha statue in the temple and felt a little hideous.

Shaking his head, he thought carefully for a while about how to complete the task of this trip, only to feel that his mind was rising, so he simply closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

What Zhiwen didn't know was that deep in his body, a cell began to slowly exude the spiritual power that had been stored for a long time with a wonderful charm.

Zhiwen was suddenly awakened by a burst of Sanskrit sounds, and when he looked around, all the guards disappeared.

The dilapidated temple also became solemn and majestic, resplendent in gold, and a scent of sandalwood came to his nose, making Zhiwen have to believe that it was true.

When I looked up, the previously broken Buddha statue had become a Buddha wearing a brocade robe, with the index finger of the left hand pointing to the sky and the index finger of the right hand pointing to the ground. The back of his head was lit with a dazzling golden light, making Zhiwen unable to see his face clearly.

Gradually, the golden light dissipated, revealing the face of the Buddha, who was the monk Taosheng.

"Master!" Zhiwen immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Tao Sheng said with a smile: "Zhiwen, the teacher knows that your trip to Western Xia is full of difficulties, so I am here to guide you."

Xixia Yipintang has the head of the four evildoers in the past, and the evil is full of Yingying Duan Yanqing, and his martial arts are comparable to yours.

There is also a hundred-year-old master Li Qiushui in the palace, and his martial arts are far better than yours.

However, he has an old opponent, who is in the southeast of the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, in the Ethereal Peak Vulture Palace, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called Tianshan Tong Ma.

You can go to her first, and if you can convince her, it will be a great help on this trip.

For the sake of the teacher, I will give you three ways to protect the Dharma and keep you safe all the way. ”

With that, the palm of his hand spread forward, and three golden lotus flowers flew out of the palm and disappeared into the Zhiwen Heavenly Spirit.

Zhiwen felt like the world was spinning for a while, as if a long time had passed, and it seemed like a moment.

When I opened my eyes, it was still the temple in disrepair, the broken Buddha statue. The guards around him did not look out of the slightest, as if they had just hallucinated themselves.

But the three methods of luck that emerged in my mind were real, and they were deeply imprinted in my mind, as if I had been practicing for many years.

"Buzz"

A mosquito flew around Zhiwen's body, and when he saw that he was not moving, he landed on Zhiwen's neck and stabbed it hard, but he couldn't stab it.

I saw the mosquitoes persistently piercing again and again.

Zhiwen tried to slightly activate one of the heart-destroying powers, and his entire body suddenly emitted a high-frequency tremor.

The mosquito was instantly bounced off and floated to the ground, dead and stiff.

Zhiwen was overjoyed, it seems that it was indeed the master who became a Buddha who came to guide him just now.

Then he followed the advice of the master and first went to the Ethereal Peak Vulture Palace to find the mountain boy to help.

Now that the means have increased greatly, I can't say that I have to tie my head to the waistband of my trousers this time and go to the Xixia Palace.

At this time, in a small town inn near the border of Western Xia in the Northern Song Dynasty, several masked people gathered in a room.

"This matter is related to the imperial court, if it is known to outsiders, I am afraid that it will bring monstrous disasters to the sect.

Thank you very much for coming forward. A slightly clumsy masked man folded his hands.

"The abbot is a highly respected person, and besides, this trip is for the Great Song Dynasty, and it is our duty to wait.

However, in order to ensure the safety of the sect, when we act, we still use our code names.

Let's call the abbot the eldest brother, and the Shi gang leader the second brother......"
