Chapter Twenty-Five: A Chance Encounter

In the evening, Dao Yuan and Yuan Jue did the Dharma and returned to the Baoling Temple. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Hearing that Lin Yi was beaten today, he immediately called Jing Kong to go for questioning, and after about a quarter of an hour, he sent someone to call Lin Yi to the abbot to inquire.

Lin Yi walked into the house and saw Yuanjue sitting on the bed, Dao Yuan and Jingkong standing beside her. Lin Yi hurriedly took a step forward, and Yuan Jue looked at him and said, "Meditation, what are you doing today, being beaten by the female benefactor named Xinyuelan?" ”

Lin Yi cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Master, it has been a month since the disciple returned to Baolin Temple, and the ancestor and the uncle are really good to the disciple!" Therefore, the disciple thought of going to the market to buy a pair of cotton shoes for the master and his uncle to wear, so as to thank the master and his uncle for their kindness to me these days. Who would have thought that she would be discovered by Xinyuelan and her maids in the market, she first sent someone to pretend to be an old woman and broke her foot, so that Ji Zhi opened Senior Brother Jingkong, and then she wanted to capture the disciple. Seeing that the situation was not good, the disciple fled to the river, who would have thought that she would not let go, and her two maids caught up with the disciple, beat the disciple all over the body, and almost lost his life, and said that she was Miao Qingqing's cousin, insisted that the disciple had molested her cousin before, and said that the disciple took one of her cousin's things, and if she didn't take it out, she would chop off the disciple's fingers one by one. Thanks to Senior Brother Jingkong's timely appearance and saving the disciple, otherwise the disciple would not have seen the master and uncle again today, and asked the master to be the master for the disciple and seek justice. With that, he kowtowed. His words were full of emotion, and he was moved by feelings, which naturally made Yuanjue and Dao Yuan empathize with him and feel pity for him.

Yuan Jue said: "You get up!" This crescent orchid has gone too far! ”

Lin Yi didn't get up, and said again: "Master, the disciple still wants to ask the ancestor for something today, please ask the ancestor to agree." ”

Yuan Jue was surprised: "What do you want me to agree to?" ”

Lin Yi looked sad and said: "Master, that Xinyuelan was ruined by Senior Brother Jingkong today, and threatened to come to the disciple for revenge in the future, the disciple has no half of his martial arts, if he is caught by her again, there will be no good end, so the disciple thinks about it, and feels that it is better to rely on others, and wants to ask the ancestor to teach the disciple a hard qigong method, just to be able to withstand her punches and kicks, and to escape when it is critical, just save your life!" ”

Yuan Jue raised his eyebrows, a cold light radiated from his eyes, his eyes stared at Lin Yi fiercely for a while, and suddenly smiled: "What you said has some truth, okay!" I have some martial arts cheats here, the method of luck, you can choose a few by yourself! As he spoke, he pouted on the bookshelf against the wall, gave Dao Yuan another look, and motioned for him to take Lin Yi over to choose.

Lin Yi walked to the bookshelf with Dao Yuan and took a closer look, and sure enough, there were many martial arts exercises on the bookshelf, including fists, palms, swords, sticks, fingering, and dozens of other martial arts cultivation methods. Lin Yi picked them up one by one, flipped through them briefly, and pondered: "It doesn't seem to be of much use to learn these martial arts?" We were born in mechanics in college, and I remember the formula of this gunpowder clearly, and I can make a pistol in the future. I roughly flipped through the books on the shelves, but I didn't like them, so I put them all back again.

Suddenly turning his head, he saw that there were many scriptures on the bookshelf near the Wulin secret books, but there were some Buddhist classics, some Taoist doctrines and Confucian classics, and his eyes were immediately attracted. Secretly thought: "I stay in the meditation room every day, it's so boring, why don't I borrow a famous work such as a historical record and watch it for fun!" Stretched out his hand and grabbed the thick historical book, and was about to pick it up, but at a glance, he saw a copy of the "Washing the Marrow Sutra" placed not far from the historical record, and said in surprise: "Isn't this the secret passed down by the ancestor of Bodhidharma?" It is said that the Bodhidharma Patriarch left two martial arts cheats before his death, one is the treasure of Shaolin Zhenshan "Yijin Sutra", and the other is this "Washing the Marrow Sutra"? Why don't you take it and see for yourself what it says? So he stretched out his hand and pulled out the "Washing the Marrow Sutra" and held it in his hand.

Yuan Jue saw it from afar, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and he said eagerly: "Meditation, which book of "Washing the Marrow Sutra" is just a Zen Buddhism's experience of the Buddhist scriptures, what are you using it for?" Let's get a new one! ”

Hey! This old monk is in such a hurry? Isn't this book important? Why don't we have to take a look! Lin Yi bowed and replied: "Master, the disciple has been feeling bored for a while now, and he needs to read some of the experience of his predecessors to deepen the disciple's understanding of the Buddhist scriptures, and the disciple is determined to carry forward the Dharma and magnify the teachings. ”

Yuan Jue saw Dao Yuan and Jingkong's gaze slipping towards him, so he stopped his mouth and said lightly: "Okay! Whatever you want! That's your uncle's posthumous work, after reading it, return it immediately! ”

"Disciple obeys!" Lin Yi hurriedly replied.

Yuan Jue told him a few more words to pay attention to safety, and if he didn't go out in the future, he told him to go back.

After Lin Yi returned to the meditation room, he couldn't wait to open the "Washing the Marrow Sutra", and read it carefully, the book is not thick, no more than sixty pages in total, and it really records some misunderstandings and perceptions of the Buddhist scriptures, but to the last dozen pages, it records a kind of luck method and three illustrations, which indicate the acupuncture points and meridian trends of the human body.

Ha! There are really big articles in the scriptures here! Since Yuan Jue attaches so much importance to this scripture, I'm afraid that what he values is this set of internal strength, so we have to copy it down quickly and keep a backup! Lin Yi then took advantage of the effort assigned to him by the Dao Yuan to copy the Lotus Sutra, and quietly copied the set of qigong exercises on the "Washing the Pulp Sutra", and carefully memorized it in his heart.

On the second day, after the morning class was over, Yuanjue called Lin Yi to his side and whispered: "You immediately return the book of "Washing the Marrow Sutra" to the master, the ancestor has prepared a qigong method called Prajna Zen Gong for you, as long as you practice him, keep your body as hard as steel, and anyone who hits you will not hurt or itch, go and get it back, go quickly!" Just go! ”

Lin Yi hurriedly ran back to his meditation room and carried the "Washing the Marrow Sutra" borrowed yesterday in his arms, and was just about to walk out of the door, when he saw the copy he copied again, he thought about it for a while, walked over and burned the copy in the charcoal stove, and then ran back to the Daxiong Treasure Hall and returned the "Washing Marrow Sutra" to Yuan Jue. Yuan Jue took a closer look, with a satisfied smile on his face, reached out and took out the Prajna Exercise from his arms, threw it in Lin Yi's hand, and slowly walked back to the abbot.

Hum! What's the use of you taking it back? Lao Tzu has memorized that set of exercises in his stomach, you don't want me to practice, Lao Tzu wants to practice? Lin Yi secretly made up his mind, took the book of Pranya Gong in his hand and returned to his meditation room.

In the next few days, Lin Yi pestered the monks in the temple and Jingkong to teach him to recognize the acupuncture points and meridians of Renxiu on the grounds of practicing Prajna Gong, remembered the 365 acupuncture points and twelve meridians of the human body clearly, and successfully learned the qigong guidance technique of Prajna Gong according to Jingkong's instructions.

Jingkong was very satisfied with his performance, and said: "Senior brother, this set of exercises is a monk of Shaolin Temple when he was in Baolin Temple, he taught us the monks of Baolin Temple, as long as you insist on practicing, three or four months, you will have a small success, the average strong man hit you thousands of punches, and it will not hurt a bit, if you practice for a year, someone will beat you with a stick, and it should be tickled with you!" ”

Lin Yi was overjoyed and said: "If this is the case, if Xinyuelan comes to beat me again, I won't feel pain and injury!" This technique is so practical! Thank you Senior Brother Jingkong for your advice, after I become a little younger, I will spend money to invite you to dinner! ”

Jingkong smiled: "This is just a primary exercise, if someone else uses an iron rod and a sword to beat you and cut you, you will still be injured, you can't show it on weekdays, use it at a critical moment to save your life!" ”

Lin Yi had a look of disappointment on his face, and secretly said in his heart: "These monks of Baolin Temple are really hiding their secrets, and they don't know what exercises are recorded in which book of the "Washing the Marrow Sutra", it is better to practice it quietly!" Then I took a look at a secluded place, and according to the records of which set of internal exercises, I practiced carefully, and after practicing, I only felt that my whole body was refreshed, and my body was tired.

Wow! This set of exercises is really amazing! Maybe it's one of the two peerless exercises left by the Shaolin Dharma Patriarch, the Pulp Washing Sutra, it seems that this exercise is not known to anyone other than Yuanjue? It's good to hide yourself, don't let Yuanjue see it. Lin Yi made up his mind.

In the next few days, Lin Yi continued to follow the Daoyuan to study Buddhist scriptures every day, preparing to have a debate competition with the Northern Sect Qing Yin Shitai, and practiced the Prajna Exercises and the internal skills recorded in the Pulp Washing Sutra in his spare time. During this period, Lin Yi once pretended to be casual and asked the monks of Baolin Temple which book was the origin of the marrow washing scripture? But when they asked, they were all dumbfounded, or looked ignorant, and it was obvious that they didn't know anything about the marrow washing sutra.

The secret of this marrow washing scripture can only be asked by Yuan Jue, but considering Yuan Jue's force value, Lin Yi immediately dispelled this idea. Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts, who knows what Yuanjue thinks in his heart? We won't stupidly come to the door, find yourself uncomfortable, this question will be hidden in your stomach rotten! Lin Yi made a decision.

Since Lin Yi was beaten, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and on this day, Lin Yi came down from the Taoist Yuan after learning the Buddhist scriptures, and saw a monk from Baolin Temple hurriedly walking up to him and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Jingxin, there are three female donors outside the door, and they keep saying that they want to settle accounts with you?" You must not go out! Could they be your enemies? As she spoke, she winked at him.

Ha! It must be that this little lady of Xinyuelan has come to the door, go! Look and see what bad ideas she's up again. Lin Yi smiled slightly, and started to walk to the temple gate.
