Chapter 254: Martial Arts Conference (2)
Last night's battle in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, although it didn't last long, also made the martial arts people who checked in early. It is clear that there are still people who dare to touch this tiger's butt. This also means that this martial arts conference will not be too calm.
The Shaolin faction, which is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, is also aware of this kind of conference, and all kinds of people have it. To say that there is no one in it who has hatred for Shaolin, it is absolutely impossible.
In this case, what Xuan Ci can do is to let the senior monks of the Xuanzi generation of the House of Elders be responsible for all important places in Shaolin. Once there is a situation, the other elders will immediately rush to support, and it is necessary to ensure that the martial arts conference can be held smoothly.
If this martial arts conference is leaked, it will have an impact on the prestige and reputation of Shaolin Temple in the past. It is about the millennium honor of Shaolin, who dares to relax their vigilance in the whole temple?
In this case, Zhao Xiaoxi finally decided to let Xue Muhua stay in the small courtyard of the farmhouse and continue to experiment with that drug. Once the experiment is successful, it will be sent to the Shaolin Temple immediately. He took the first step and stayed at the Shaolin Temple.
In any case, at this time, Shaolin is in dire need of help. Even if Zhao Xiaoxi confessed, the seven people of Hangu Bayou passed ahead of schedule. can share some guard tasks for Shaolin, but Zhao Xiaoxi knows that Shaolin may not believe them.
Although the Shaolin Arhat Formation is famous all over the world, the strength of a single monk of the Xuanzi generation is actually not very strong. Otherwise, if he met a scripture thief last night, the four elders would not have left each other behind.
Despite what I learned, the thief was wounded. But as long as it is not a fatal injury, with the strength of the scripture thief, it can be concealed. As long as the body is not checked, anyone is suspicious.
With this worry, Zhao Xiaoxi entered the Shaolin Temple in advance, hoping to do his best for Shaolin. Anyway. The existence of Shaolin over the years also played a role in deterring the martial arts people of the Central Plains for the Song Dynasty.
In addition, when dealing with Fanbang martial arts people, Shaolin also sent many masters. This means that whether it is public or private, Cho Hyo-seok cannot sit idly by. Go up the hill early. It is also a very necessary thing.
Decided to go up the mountain a day earlier, Meilan Bamboo Sword was still left behind. If they want to participate in the conference, they can go up the mountain with Xue Muhua tomorrow. At that time, there will be no one to stop them from entering.
Even if the Tianshan Vulture Palace is located in a remote place in Fanbang, its fame in the Central Plains is also not small. The four personal sword maids of the Eagle Palace Tianshan Tong, the ordinary heads of the Central Plains Martial Arts Sect, should also be polite to them.
Zhao Xiaoxi, who went up the mountain with a long sword, saw the monk again. Look at each other. planned to notify Shaolin Xuanci and others to put on a big battle to welcome, but they quickly refused.
did not hide the intention of the monk to go up the mountain in advance, and heard that Zhao Xiaoxi deliberately went up the mountain to help, and the monk also knew very well how strong Zhao Xiaoxi's strength was. Immediately expressed his gratitude to him as a Shaolin person.
In these years, the martial arts people who can ignore their false names. Actually, it's not much. Zhao Xiaoxi's move is in the eyes of the monk Zhike. It is undoubtedly very admirable. In the end, he listened to Zhao Xiaoxi's words and let him enter the Shaolin Temple quietly.
Compared with others staying in the Shaolin Temple, they live directly in the welcome room. Zhao Xiaoxi came directly to the elders' house and found Xuzhu living in the same room with him. This approach undoubtedly shows that Zhao Xiaoxi is different.
Xuzhu is undoubtedly very happy about Zhao Xiaoxi's arrival. With the permission of the elders. can let Zhao Xiaoxi and him recount their brotherhood, and the two can live in the same monk's room.
made the bed for Zhao Xiaoxi, but Zhao Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Second brother, I know you are very busy now." If there's anything going on, just go get busy first. I'm going to walk around on my own. Don't be too raw, I'm a Shaolin lay disciple these days! ”
Knowing what Zhao Xiaoxi was talking about, Xuzhu also smiled and said, "Okay, then senior brother is welcome." Anyway, if you're familiar with the temple, then you can walk around first, and I'll go to other things first. ”
Looking at this Xuzhu, who lived in the elder's house, and really walked out of the meditation room to do other things, Zhao Xiaoxi hung the long sword in his hand in the room. Soon left the monk's house and headed for the stupa.
As a Shaolin land, it is strictly guarded at this time. It's just that compared to other martial arts people, they are not allowed to enter it anywhere, but Zhao Xiaoxi, who has an elder token, can enter and exit it at will.
Seeing this scene, many people in the rivers and lakes have a heart for Zhao Xiaoxi. But Zhao Xiaoxi made his debut, after all, the time is still short. Many people who have never seen him don't know what Zhao Xiaoxi's identity is.
Like a Zhao Xiaoxi, who came to Shaolin for sightseeing, he went unhurriedly in the direction of the Relic Pagoda. Not long after, I saw the sweeping monk sweeping the leaves in the stupa again.
Just when Zhao Xiaoxi was about to step forward, he heard the sweeping monk say: "It's inconvenient today, you can come back after the conference!" ”
Hearing this voice, Zhao Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, but it was still the same as if he hadn't heard it. Continuing to walk behind the stupa, of course, when he passed the sweeping monk, he still performed a Buddhist ceremony, as if he didn't know the sweeping monk at all.
failed to talk to the sweeping monk, Zhao Xiaoxi came to the back mountain of Shaolin. Although it is not a forbidden place, it is also forbidden for ordinary disciples to come. And this back mountain, there are few people in ordinary times.
It's just that when he came over today, Zhao Xiaoxi saw an old acquaintance. In the original script, the master of the mystery who should have been killed. If you want to come to the back mountain, Master Xuan is in charge of guarding it.
Seeing Zhao Xiaoxi coming, Xuan Yan was also very curious: "Master Zhao, why are you here!" ”
Zhao Xiaoxi held a Buddhist ritual and said: "Master Xuannan, I heard that someone broke into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion at night yesterday, so I came to take a look today." As soon as the matter at hand was taken care of, I came up early to see if I could help. ”
Hearing Zhao Xiaoxi say this, Xuan Nan immediately said: "Amitabha, the donor's kindness to my Shaolin, Lao Na is really grateful. Speaking of which, the person who broke into the pavilion last night was really powerful in martial arts, and he still used my Shaolin stunt.
Although we were prepared in advance by the orders of the abbot. But the thief was too cunning, and when he found our guard, he immediately tried to escape. In the end, he still couldn't, stopping him from escaping and letting him escape into the back mountain. ”
The back hill looks very lush with vegetation. Usually few people enter it, and the woodcutters under the mountain rarely come here to collect firewood. As for the hunters, they rarely come here to hunt.
In the past, when he practiced martial arts in Shaolin Temple, Zhao Xiaoxi also entered it a few times to capture prey and eat. I think it's really difficult to find out if you want to hide someone in this forest.
And it is close to the backyard of Shaolin Temple, and you can escape into the Shaolin Temple from any place. For this reason, it is undoubtedly a smart move to escape among the escapers. As long as you look for an opportunity and quietly return to the monastery, no one else will find out.
If the Shaolin Temple is willing to wake up all the guests and count the martial arts people who are no longer in the room one by one, they may be able to find out who the real culprit is. But in the middle of the night, wake up all the guests who came to attend the martial arts conference, and as a Shaolin monk, you can't do it!
Zhao Xiaoxi, who understood this, quickly smiled and said: "Master, it seems that this person knows the terrain of Shaolin Temple very well, and he also knows the personality of your masters. If the master doesn't mind, I'd like to go into the back mountain and investigate to see if I can find some clues. ”
Hearing that Zhao Xiaoxi was going to enter the back mountain to investigate, Xuan Nan didn't stop him: "It's troublesome Zhao Shizhu!" ”
In this regard, Zhao Xiaoxi smiled and said: "Master, today is not a martial arts conference, you can treat me as a lay disciple of nothingness." ”
Hearing this, Xuan Nan's heart moved, and he also smiled and said, "Then there will be no trouble!" ”
After a brief exchange between the two, Zhao Xiaoxi walked out of the trail pointed out by Xuan Nan and walked out of the dense forest in the back mountain. Although Zhao Xiaoxi knows that he can't find anything when he goes in now, it's better to sit in Shaolin Temple.
Just as Zhao Xiaoxi began to walk into the slightly shady woods, through the sunlight that sprinkled into the woods, small animals could be seen shuttling through them from time to time. The whole forest is as quiet as ever.
Just out of the intuition of a martial artist, Zhao Xiaoxi felt that there was a gaze staring at him when he entered the periphery of the woods. Although Zhao Xiaoxi didn't find out that the other party was hiding there and watching him, he could feel that there were eyes staring at him in the dark.
Zhao Xiaoxi, who walked into the forest, pretended not to find anything, but stared at a fat hare not far ahead, jumping in the grass from time to time. This appearance is no different from a person who goes up to the mountain to find wild things to fight for.
He cut a branch with a dagger on the side of the road, cut it into several sections, sharpened its end and held it in the middle of his body. Zhao Xiaoxi was like the Jianghu people who went up to the mountains to find game, his eyes were fixed on the hare.
Just when Zhao Xiaoxi flew out of the tip of a wooden stake, the whole person rolled in the grass. Towards the dark place not far from him, he spilled the tips of the four wooden stakes in his hand. At the same time, Zhao Xiaoxi, who slapped the ground, rushed into it.
Soon I saw that the tip of the stake that I had shot away earlier had already penetrated into a big tree. Not far ahead, there was a man in gray, standing there staring at him.
Seeing this gray-clothed man, Zhao Xiaoxi didn't speak, and turned the dagger that had sharpened the wooden stick in his hand around. Appearing very calm, he walked towards the man in gray. Because, this person's martial arts may not be able to surpass him.
Originally, it was very simple, the tips of the four wooden stakes before, although they did not hurt the other party, left a corner of the other party's clothes. This shows that the strength of the other party will not surpass him. It's not difficult, this stake tip won't be dodged by the other party.
Looking at the gray-clothed man in front of him, he also had a gray scarf on his head, and only a pair of eyes, staring at Zhao Xiaoxi very coldly. It seems that he can't sneak attack, and he feels a little annoyed by the counter-sneak attack.
What surprised the man in gray even more was that Zhao Xiaoxi, who was sneak attacked, looked very calm. Even when he saw him, he didn't say a word, as if he wanted to see the other party through.
Until the man in gray couldn't help but lower his voice and said, "Who are you?" ”
The answer he got was Zhao Xiaoxi's smile and said, "Who are you?" (To be continued......)
