Sure enough, I sat until three o'clock in the morning, and my eyelids were fighting, but the abbot had not let me go.

"Oh, oh!"

There was a rooster crowing outside, and the abbot finally opened his eyes, and then said to me, "Let's go and make incense." ”

"Xingxiang?"

I looked at the abbot and was amazed, what is Xingxiang?

The abbot explained to me that incense is a necessary course for monks in the temple to practice every day, originally I was a lay disciple, no need to practice incense, but seeing my impetuousness, I also asked me to participate in incense and hone my mind.

Walking incense is also known as burning incense, incense, in Biyun Temple incense is to let the monks hold the incense around the Bodhisattva to walk for an hour, until the whole body sweats slightly, will end.

On this day, I fully experienced the ascetic life of the monks of Biyun Temple in the morning, went to practice incense at three o'clock, had breakfast at five o'clock, meditated after that, and then ate lunch.

Nima, Lao Tzu is here to learn martial arts, not to practice meditation, and I even began to suspect that the abbot was deliberately manipulating me.

Despite the complaints, I gritted my teeth and persevered.

In this way, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and I have stayed in Biyun Temple for half a month, except for the occasional opportunity to go down the mountain and be happy with Ning Caijie, the rest of the days are more depressed, and my mood has also changed from the beginning of impetuousness to tranquility, as if integrated into the life here.

There are no cars, no televisions, no electric lights, no modern entertainment, and there is not even a shadow of wine and meat.

In the past half a month, the big knife that Lichen built for me has also been built, with a total length of one meter nine, the blade is thicker and slightly heavier, but the edge of the blade is extremely sharp, as if there is a kind of cutting gold and jade like chopping melons and vegetables.

The body of the knife is in the shape of a half-moon, very similar to Brother Yao's Daguan knife, and the knife body is also engraved with dragon patterns, to be exact, the dragon head is on the knife body, and the blood basin is wide open, revealing sharp fangs, as if it is a beast that wants to eat people, but the dragon body is wrapped around the handle of the knife, and it feels very good to hold on it.

The creation cycle of this knife exceeded three days, and it took seven days to build, and perhaps more effort was still in the details of the shape, the scales of the dragon body were lifelike, and the dragon claws gave people a sense of violence.

It can be seen that Lichen put a lot of thought into creating this knife.

When Lichen respectfully presented the knife in front of me, his face was quite proud, as if this knife was his proud work, and said, "Uncle Shi, what are you not satisfied with this knife?" ”

I took the knife and waved it casually, and I heard the sound of the fierce wind, full of majesty, I felt very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Very good, thank you." ”

Lichen smiled: "Uncle Shi doesn't have to be polite, it is an honor for my nephew to serve you." After speaking, he paused, and continued: "Uncle Shi, you may not know the power of this knife. ”

I said, "Oh, what's so special about this knife?" ”

Lichen said: "This knife is made of special materials by me, and it is cast by the secret method of our Biyun Temple, and the iron is like clay, so Uncle can try it." ”

"It's so magical!"

I couldn't help but be amazed.

Lichen turned around and asked a little monk to take a ring knife, hold it in the palm of his hand, and say, "Uncle Shi, you can cut it and try it." ”

I laughed and said, "Okay." Then he spat a bubble of saliva into the palm of his hand, and slashed at the ring knife in Chen's hand.

Boom!

I only heard a crisp sound, and the ring knife was cut off by force, and the upper half was thrown into the air, and the fracture was extremely neat, like the cut left by the knife cutting a watermelon.

"This knife is so sharp?"

I looked at the tip of the broadsword that shimmered with a terrifying cold light.

Lichen said: "Uncle Shi, it's not all, this knife can be disassembled, you bring it to me and I'll show you." ”

I immediately handed the knife to the dust.

Lichen held the handle of the knife and turned it, and the handle of the knife was divided into two sections, and then held the section close to the tip of the knife, and then twisted it, and then divided it into two sections, and Lichen immediately explained: "This knife can be disassembled into three sections to cope with different occasions." For example, only a part of the tail end is used, he is an iron rod, the lethality is limited, only the upper half of the two sections, it is just an elongated machete, only the top one is used, it is no different from the general short weapon, easy to carry. The three sections are connected together and combined into a big knife, which is a heavy weapon with extremely lethal power, the handsome of a hundred soldiers! ”

It was the first time I heard the term "the commander of a hundred soldiers", and I was curious to ask Chen, why is it a commander of a hundred soldiers.

Lichen told me that the Spring and Autumn Broadsword and the general Daguan Knife actually originated from Guan Yu's use of the Qinglong Yanyue Knife back then, because the Spring and Autumn Broadsword was wielded with a mighty and fierce spirit, and the broadsword was as fierce as a tiger, with extremely strong lethality, and was known as the commander of a hundred soldiers.

Because the conditions for using broadswords are extremely harsh, they cannot be used by ordinary people.

I heard Chen's explanation and said with a smile: "I have gained knowledge." Then he took the big knife, reconnected it, walked to a stone slab on the side, and slashed it down with a loud shout.

Bang!

The big knife fell, and the hard stone slab was actually split in two from the middle, and the incision was neat, no different from the chopping knife just now.

"What a knife!"

I couldn't help but admire, this knife is simply a treasure, and it should be more deceitful than Brother Yao's.

For the monk, I want to express my gratitude but also feel troublesome, directly give money to others, people may look down on me, I thought about it, or took out the check book, wrote a check for 200,000 yuan and handed it over.

When Lichen saw the amount on my check, he was extremely surprised, and said again and again that he couldn't accept it, so how could a monk covet money and other external things?

I smiled and said, this is the sesame oil money I donated to Biyun Temple, let the dust collect it and buy some clothes for the little monks in the temple or something.

The little monk in the temple is indeed shabby enough, and the monk's robe on his body has a patch here and a patch there.

Hearing my words, Lichen accepted it with unease.

After getting the big knife, I still couldn't learn the knife technique, the abbot old bald donkey, let me study the Buddhist scriptures every day, and I was about to be able to memorize the heart sutra.

In a blink of an eye, another five days passed, it was already the twentieth day that I came to Biyun Temple, I got up at three o'clock in the morning that day, sat on the bed, thought of the things in Xicheng District, I felt uneasy, although there was no movement there for the time being, but I always felt unsteady, I couldn't stay here all the time, learning martial arts is important, but things in Xicheng District are more important.

After thinking about it, I finally made up my mind that if the abbot master didn't teach me the sword technique again, I would leave Biyun Temple.

After getting up, I went to the abbot's room to wait for the abbot, and after the abbot came out, he took me to make incense first, and after the incense was finished, I wondered how to talk to the abbot.

But just when I was hesitating how to speak, the abbot suddenly said to me: "Master Wei heard that Chen has specially made a big knife for you, you go and show it to Master Wei." ”

When I heard the abbot's words, I was overjoyed, is it finally about to begin today? Hurriedly agreed: "Yes, Master, I'll get it right away." ”

The abbot said, "I'll wait for you in Tallinn in the back, and you will come directly to Tallinn." With that, he turned and walked in the direction of Tallinn.

Looking at the abbot's thin back, I actually suspected more than once that with such a small body as the abbot, I could knock him more than ten meters away with one punch, was he really a master?

It doesn't look like it horizontally or vertically.

I went back and got the Daguan knife, and I rushed to Houshan Tallinn, at this time I saw that the fish belly was white and the vision was hazy.

The abbot was holding on a large stone slab, and the old monk was settled, and I didn't even move my eyelids when I arrived.

I know that the abbot's ears and eyes are very dexterous, and ordinary people within a few meters of him will definitely not escape his ears, so he must have known that I had arrived, but he didn't speak, and as a disciple, I could only wait on the side, and the passion was all extinguished as if the abbot had poured a basin of cold water.

"During this time, what do you have learned from studying the simple interpretation of the Heart Sutra, and tell me about it for the teacher."

Master Abbot still closed his eyes and asked me lightly.

Sometimes I really think he is very annoying, old and ugly, but he always likes to pretend to be forced, like a worldly master, at first I thought it was quite unfathomable, and when the contact was deep, I felt very annoying, and I couldn't talk well?
