Through conversation, Yun Qi knew some of the past of these monks, these monks are composed of warrior monks from major monasteries in Zhejiang, like them, there are several in Zhejiang Province, scattered in different places in the province, their one is led by Hui Ke's master, that is, the tall monk, Hui Ke's master is called Fuyuan, is the chief warrior monk of Lingyin Temple, good at making a long iron stick, weighing forty-eight pounds, exquisite martial arts, extraordinary strength, Jianghu people called "Fuhu Arhat", since they fought with the Japanese Kou, every battle is victorious, No defeats.

Yun Qi has seen Fuyuan's skills with his own eyes, and he thinks that it is much worse in comparison, when he was in the mountains, he thought that Lei Chunshan's stick skills were the top level in the world, but now it seems that he is really a frog at the bottom of the well, I don't know that there are many stronger masters than Lei Qingshan in this world, and it is estimated that if Qingshan competes with Master Fuyuan, he will lose in less than three rounds.
"Master Fuyuan's skills are really breathtaking, when I fought with the Japanese Kou last night, it was really like a golden steel demon subdued, I really thought it was a god descending." Yun Qi exclaimed.
Hui Ke heard that Yun Qi was admiring his master's skills, and he was also very happy, although he didn't look back, but his words were obviously proud: "That is, my master's skills are quite high, since I followed him, I have never seen him lose for a while, I heard that before the master became a monk, he was a young and famous knight, and he was also quite famous in the Jiangnan martial arts." ”
"It turns out that the master didn't become a monk since childhood?" Yun Qi asked in surprise.
"Yes, the master's ambition when he was young was to be a general, he once worshipped the first swordsman Li Liangqin as a teacher, after practicing the sword for a few years, he walked alone in the rivers and lakes, for some reason, suddenly saw through the red dust, entered our Lingyin Temple, there was originally a group of warrior monks in our temple, and also had a set of their own stick method, after he came, the original stick method was promoted and discarded, and the essence was removed, carried forward, and finally had the current power." When Hui Ke talked about his master, his eyebrows fluttered, with a face of admiration and pride.
"Isn't Master Fuyuan the number one master in the rivers and lakes today?" Yun Qi asked, for young people, everyone once dreamed of becoming the first master of the rivers and lakes, that is a crown on the high mountain peak, but after all, there is only one first, if you can't reach it, it is also something to boast about and be proud of to be able to become friends with the first master, or have intersected.
Who knew that Hui Ke shook his head and said: "Master said that his senior brother is much higher than his martial arts, and compared with his senior brother, it is simply the distance between the river and the river, of course I don't believe it, the master has always been humble, this must be his humble words." ”
"Your master's brother? What is your name? Yun Qi asked curiously.
"His name is Yu Dayou, and now I heard that he is a general in Ningbo." Hui Ke replied, and then added: "But I haven't met Shibo, and it's not easy to evaluate." ”
"Yu Dayou, Ningbo General." Yun Qi chewed in his mouth, but he was puzzled in his heart, he always thought that the martial arts were strong in the people, in the rivers and lakes, but he didn't want this general surnamed Yu to be so powerful, which completely subverted his cognition, especially since he had seen countless cowardly officers and soldiers over the years, arrogant but straw generals, if not, how could those wouldn't be unscrupulous in the Ming Dynasty, like entering a no-man's land?
The two walked, chatted, time passed quickly, turned a mountain, and walked forward in the dense forest for a while, suddenly a building with a yellow waist and white wall flashed in the forest, and looked at it, it was a temple, and the temple gate was written with three big characters "Yunyin Temple".
The time is close to noon, the water vapor in the mountain is very abundant, the sun shines, it shows the beautiful scenery of the clouds and clouds, the white mist drifts with the wind, one will be like a silk scarf, hanging in the treetops, one will be like a ribbon around the waist, a gust of wind blows, the fog will disperse, not shaped, the air is moist and fresh, take a breath, there is a trace of sweetness, the clouds and mist disappear, the hair, there are countless small water droplets on the face, it seems to have walked through the drizzle.
Hui Ke put down the cart, knocked on the door, the mountain gate soon opened, out of a young monk, saw Hui Ke, raised his hand to salute, called out a Buddha number, asked: "This senior brother, come to our temple, what do you do?" ”
Hui Ke also returned the salute, took out the letter handed to him by the master from his arms, and said to the little monk: "This senior brother, I am Hui Ke of Lingyin Temple, here is a letter from my master, Monk Fuyuan, and I also ask the senior brother to present it to Master Lu Jue." ”
The little monk received a letter, glanced at Yun Qi lying on the cart, and said to Hui Ke: "Senior brother wait, I will come with a report." ”
"I'm in trouble."
The door of the temple slammed shut, cutting off the inside and outside of the temple.
After a while, I heard the sound of footsteps in the temple, the temple door opened again, and the little monk and another middle-aged monk walked out and said a Buddha name to Hui Ke: "Senior brother, there is a please." ”
The monk who followed him didn't speak, but just stepped forward and assisted Hui Ke in pushing Yun Qi's cart into the temple.
Crossing the Daxiong Treasure Hall, at the door of the side room, there stood an old monk, about seventy years old, with crane hair and childish face, full of wrinkles, but with a ruddy complexion and bright eyes, he felt that he had to be a Taoist monk at first glance.
"Abbot, Hui Ke and the injured benefactor have arrived." The little monk bowed to the old monk with his palms folded.
The old monk nodded slightly, turned to look at Hui Ke, Hui Ke knew that this was what the master said about Lu Jue Zen Master, and hurriedly took two steps forward and bent down to salute: "Master, Lingyin Temple Hui Ke greeted." ”
The old monk returned the salute with one palm, his long eyebrows fluttered slightly in the wind, and with a kind face, he asked, "Where is Fuyuan now?" These days, we heard that he was at war with the Japanese Invaders, and we lived in the temple gate, and we did not know the news, and we often only heard a few words, and we did not know what the situation of the war was. ”
Hui Ke simply reported to the old monk about the situation in recent days, the old monk listened quietly, nodded slightly from time to time, Yun Qi also listened with interest on the side, it turned out that these monks have been fighting fiercely with the Japanese for more than a month, at the beginning of the enemy is unknown, are tentative attacks, a few times, after discovering the reality of the Japanese Kou, then go all out, with the high martial arts of the warrior monks, the Japanese Kou scattered and fled, this month has been repelled and run away several groups of Japanese Kou, so that now there are many Japanese Kou as long as they see the bald head from afar, Just run away and run away in embarrassment, regardless of whether it is a monk or a bald person.
To say that most of the robbers who harassed the coastal areas of Zhejiang are not to worry, as Yun Qi knows, they are mostly fishermen along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, loosely organized, and their martial arts are not strong, and they often run away after grabbing, scaring the defenseless people, and when they meet this group of warrior monks, they are not opponents at all, and countless people have been injured and killed, and more are captured alive and escorted to the government, and the government will pronounce the verdict after interrogation.
However, since the warrior monks met the nearest group of Japanese monks, they can be regarded as meeting a real opponent, they have become the most difficult bone to gnaw on the warrior monks, this group of Japanese monks is all composed of samurai, each of them is strong in martial arts, outstanding sword skills, and full of strategies, but also understand some of the art of war, in the competition with the warrior monks, actually fought victories and defeats, not equal, but it is very difficult for the Japanese monks to win the warrior monks, but it is almost impossible for the warrior monks to eat this group of Japanese monks, the two sides are fighting and walking with each other, fighting while walking, They had already chased several county boundaries in a row, and the Japanese were undoubtedly distressed, but the warrior monks did not take much advantage.
The only good news is that if one of the Japanese is killed, one is missing, and if one is injured, another may be needed to take care of it, so their prestige is decreasing day by day, while the warrior monks can continue to be replenished, although there are also a few dead and injured people, but soon fresh blood is replenished from other monasteries, and it is foreseeable that in the long run, these Japanese will definitely end in a fiasco.
After hearing the battle situation last night, the old monk pointed at Yun Qi and asked, "This benefactor is the one you saved and let us take care of on your behalf?" ”
Hui Ke nodded yes, Yun Qi also hurriedly raised his head, saluted the old monk with a fist, and said, "Master, please forgive me for causing trouble to the temple." ”
The old monk smiled and waved his hand: "It is the duty of Buddhist disciples to cure diseases and save people, and to purify all sentient beings, so there is no need to be polite." ”
The old monk turned to the monk who was pushing the cart with Hui Ke and said, "Zhixin, you should place this injured benefactor and check his injuries to see if he needs to change his dressing." ”
"Yes, Abbot." Monk Zhixin bowed his head and agreed, turned around, and wanted to push the cart.
Probably along the way, Yun Qi and Hui Ke talked quite happily, so there was also some good feeling between the two, Hui could see that he was about to separate from Yun Qi, so he shouted Zhixin, took off a string of Buddha beads from his wrist, put it into Yun Qi's palm, and said to Yun Qi: "Master Yun, you are here to recuperate with peace of mind, the Buddha will bless you, this Master Lu Jue is a high monk, respected in the Buddhist sect, and has superb medical skills, with his care, you will recover soon, Hui Ke is about to catch up with the master, I can no longer take care of you, I hope to forgive me." ”
Yun Qi pinched the string of Buddha beads in his hand, and his heart couldn't help but warm and dry, this Buddha beads seemed to be made of small walnuts, but the whole body emitted a dark color, like gold and iron, about all year round play, the surface was touched to the oil, if it was coated with a layer of oil film, but you twisted it with your hands, but it was just smooth and warm, and there was no trace of oil overflowing, although Yun Qi didn't know much about it, but he also knew that this Buddha bead must be worth a lot of money, and it was also Hui Ke's beloved thing.
"Master Hui Ke, I can't accept such a valuable gift from you, you saved my life, I have a deep sense of great virtue, I can't repay it, you give me this string of Buddhist beads again, how can I feel at ease?" Yun Qi resolutely refused.
Hui Ke smiled and pushed the Buddha beads back, and said: "Although we have not seen each other for a long time, but you and I have also formed a Buddha relationship, in my opinion, you are kind in nature, but sometimes the heart is still a little extreme, send you this string of Buddha beads, is to hope that you always maintain a bodhicitta heart, when you are excited, you can remind yourself, don't fall into the magic barrier." ”
Yun Qi was stunned in his heart, the magic barrier, what is the magic barrier? Do you have a magic barrier?
Maybe there is a magic barrier, family feud is your own magic barrier, for many years, I have been trying to find a way to take revenge, but I have not found a solution, I am distressed and annoyed, but in the end I still did not find a chance to take revenge, which makes me deeply regretful.
But let yourself give up, that can't be done, family revenge is not avenged, how to stand in the world?
Yun Qi held the Buddha beads, and for a while, he was stupid.
Master Lu Jue stroked his long beard and looked at Yun Qi with an infatuated face, and for some reason, a smile appeared on his face.
