Chapter 254: The Strange Monk
Zu Qianqiu said: "Chen Gongzi's words are very reasonable, if you really do it, there will be many casualties on both sides." Now that Chen Gongzi has already spoken, let's take Chen Gongzi as the leader, he gives orders, and everyone should obey them. ”
When the heroes heard this, they all claimed yes.
Chen Xiao raised his voice and said: "Friends, counting on your fingers, there are still seven days before the March appointment, everyone will set off and walk slowly, and when you arrive at Desong Mountain, the time is almost there." We're not doing it in secret, we're going to do it with a lot of fanfare. Tomorrow, let's go buy cloth flags, write the words 'Heroes of the world go to Shaolin to welcome the Oriental Master', and then buy more leather drums, and beat them all the way, so that the monks and lay disciples of Shaolin will be frightened when they hear it. Speaking of which, Chen Xiao secretly thought, this should be pulling the tiger skin as a banner.
Since these high-rollers have come here, the top ten are all good deeds, and they are all overjoyed to hear him say that they want to make such a big fuss, and the cheers shook the valley.
Among them, there are also a number of old and stable people, who don't want to make such a big move, but after thinking about it, Dongfang Undefeated is currently missing, and he may not be in Shaolin Temple. is the only way to attract her by making a big fuss in the rivers and lakes, and seeing that everyone likes to mess around, she is noncommittal and smiles.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Xiao asked Zu Qianqiu, the old man and other subordinates of the Sun and Moon God Sect to rush to make flags and purchase leather drums. By noon, dozens of white cloth flags had been written, but only two were bought. Chen Xiao said: "Let's start here, pass through the towns along the road, and keep buying." Remember that the momentum must be loud and grand, we are going to greet the Eastern Sect Master, but we can't make her sad because of the small movement. ”
What he said won the hearts of the old man and the others, and immediately some people beat drums, and the heroes shouted in unison, and marched in line to the north.
This is a large number of people, it can already be regarded as the category of marching formation, Huang Yaoshi is a scholar and a celestial, and sent seven gangs, two gangs as outposts in front, two groups of left guards, two groups of right guards, and another group of palace guards to respond, and the rest are the Chinese army brigade; He also sent decent people to deliver news back and forth.
The reason why decent people are chosen to deliver the news is because these people have a relatively better temper and will not draw their swords against each other without saying a word. If you change the high-rollers subordinate to the Sun and Moon God Sect, you will inevitably use knives and guns.
Qunhao saw that his distribution was in good order, and he was naturally satisfied.
After traveling for several days, there were constantly heroes gathering along the way. Flags and drums, more and more, in the sound of puffy drums, more than 3,000 people shouted noisily, flocking to Shaolin.
When it came to Henan, two more groups of heroes came from the east and west, with a total of more than 2,000 people, so that the total number was more than 5,000. These 4,000 people can just sleep at night, regardless of grasslands, forests, barren mountains and mountains, they can sleep upside down, but eating and drinking is a great trouble.
For several days in a row, the restaurants and hotels in the towns along the way were all eaten and drunk, and the tables and chairs were broken. Qunhao was not drunk and not full, so he was annoyed, so he planned to beat the hotel to the ground.
Fortunately, the Ming Sect advocates Wuji and Huang Laoxie Li Qiushui pressed the formation, where was their opponent who wanted to make trouble, and they were beaten in one or two rounds, especially Huang Yaoshi, who was originally a righteous and evil character, and he immediately ate to death against these high-rollers, and finally didn't make any big mess.
Chen Xiao saw that these high-rollers in the rivers and lakes were both good and evil, and they were all straight men with great righteousness, and he only hoped that the two sides would not start a bloody battle, otherwise it would be miserable.
Counting on the fingers, there are only two days left before the appointment in March, and it is less than a hundred miles away from the Shaolin Temple, and the time is just right. Although I don't know where Sister Yu is, I should have gotten the thing that I brought people to Shaolin in order to find her, and I should have come out to see myself when the time came.
As soon as I thought about it, I could see Dongfang Jade immediately, and I immediately felt warm all over my body.
That night, the heroes camped in the open field, and patrols were set up all around to prevent the enemy from suddenly attacking at night.
On the plains within a radius of several miles, piles of firewood were burned everywhere. These heroes did not have military orders, rabble, gathered together, but they could hear the sound of singing and shouting, which shook the four fields. Some people even wielded swords and swords, fought fists and wrestled corners, and shouted loudly.
Chen Xiao stood up and looked around, but when he saw the flames rising one by one, and the crowds around the fires were surging, he thought, "They don't live up to Sister Yu, and I can't bear them." ”
After drinking a lot of wine, seeing that the Shaolin Temple was in front of him, he immediately rested early to prepare for the upcoming unknown.
After all, it is Shaolin Temple, the world's recognized Longtan Tiger's Den, even if it is the top of the six poles, it will never be good to break into Shaolin easily. I'm afraid that only a peerless master like Dugu or Zhang Sanfeng can retreat.
Now the closer he gets to Shaolin, the more Chen Xiao smiles.
No matter how worried he is, he can't put it on the surface, otherwise it will affect morale, and if he encounters any unexpected situation, it will be a complete tragedy.
Nothing was said all night.
Early in the morning of the second day, Chen Xiao got up early, finished grooming carefully, tightened the burden of the neon coat and feather, and everyone was ready to go, even if he wanted to go to the mountain in Shaomu.
Chen Xiao was silent, his face was solemn, and along the way, the situation became more and more weird.
On this day, a large number of heroes came to the meeting. But of course, the monk didn't see half of it, and even the passers-by didn't see half of them.
When Qunhao arrived at the foot of Shaomuro Mountain, it was already evening.
Hundreds of large leather drums beat at the same time, and the fluffy sound was really earth-shattering. The group beat the drums for a long time, but not a single monk came out. Chen Xiao said: "Stop the drum!" The order was laid, and the drumming grew softer, and finally stopped. Chen Xiao took a breath and said loudly: "The junior Chen Xiao, together with a group of friends from the rivers and lakes, came to visit the abbot of Shaolin Temple. Thank you for your reception. His words were transmitted with abundant internal force, and they were heard for miles. But there was silence in the temple, and there was no echo. Chen Xiao said it again, but still no one responded. Chen Xiao looked at Zu Qianqiu and said, "Please ask Brother Zu to offer a prayer post." ”
Zu Qianqiu said: "Yes." "He took the worship box he had prepared in advance and walked up the mountain.
But he didn't want him to go fast and come back faster, and after a while, he had already returned to Chen Xiao's side, and said in a low voice: "Chen Gongzi, things are weird. ”
Chen Xiaoqi said: "How? ”
Zu Qianqiu said: "In the entire mountain gate of Shaolin Temple, there is a crazy monk lying on the ground drinking wine and eating meat. ”
In front of the Shaolin Temple, there is a crazy monk who is still lying on the ground drinking wine and eating meat?
Chen Xiao only felt that today's events were extremely weird, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, leaving people to protect the wings left and right, and sending some people to report the situation at any time. Sure enough, after walking forward for a while, Chen Xiao finally saw the first character he met today, a character he would never have imagined.
It was a sloppy monk to the extreme.
A pair of gray eyebrows drooped to the corners of his eyes, a shaven on his mouth, and a face full of wrinkles like old bark, so he couldn't tell how old he was. On his head was a gray and torn monk's hat, and a gray monk's robe full of patches and holes was opened, revealing the bony ribs inside.
On his feet was a pair of tattered straw sandals with his big toes exposed, but he carried a large wine gourd around his waist, and in his hand he held a pair of extremely tattered cattail grass fans.
In front of this extremely strange old monk, there are a few snacks, chicken, duck and fish.
Such a monk who didn't take the Shaolin rules and precepts seriously at all was so arrogant that he just lay in front of the mountain gate of Shaolin Temple and drank wine and ate meat, but he couldn't see half a figure on the wide steps of Shaolin Temple.
Not to mention that there are no monks, even mice and birds, there is not a single one.
Not to mention such a scene, Chen Xiao didn't expect it, even if he was a well-informed Huang Yaoshi, he was afraid that he would never imagine it.
And often, the more such a position, the more strange it becomes.
The originally noisy crowd gradually quieted down, and the martial arts heroes dispersed to both sides with curiosity, and when everyone saw the strange monk, they finally calmed down completely.
Needle drops can be heard.
No one can imagine what this monk is all about, and where all the monks of Shaolin Temple have gone.
Chen Xiao had thought about thousands and hundreds of possible situations in his heart, but the vision in front of him was still far beyond his expectations.
There are more than 5,000 people on his side, and they are all martial arts masters.
So many people are looking at a person, even if they are a little timid, they have to be scared enough, but the monk is so leisurely lying on the bluestone floor drinking and eating meat, the smell of wine spreads far away, but no one dares to step forward and say even a word.
After all, Chen Xiao was the leader of this group of people, he took a deep breath, slowly stepped forward, hugged his fists deeply at the monk, and said slowly: "Boy Chen Xiao, come to visit Shaolin Temple, and hope that this master will be convenient." ”
He came with so many people, and he spoke politely, and someone else should have left the way a long time ago. But the old monk didn't seem to hear it, he just took another sip of wine and ate two mouthfuls of food, then squinted his eyes and smiled: "Yo~Yo~Yo~ The little brother is here~ Oh, don't worry, don't worry~ Do you want to come over and eat first, and then drink some wine~~?" ”
He spoke unhurriedly, unhurriedly, and with a lot of crutches in his voice, it sounded extremely weird.
There were many bold and grumpy people in the crowd, and the white bear in the Mobei duo took a step forward, pulled out his gong-like voice and shouted: "Where did the crazy monk come from here to get in the way, I'm not welcome if you don't get out of here!" ”
The strange monk listened to Bai Xiong's words, but he ignored them, and just said to himself: "Yo~Yo~Yo~ The poor monk hasn't been out of the rivers and lakes for so many years~ What kind of person is it~ dare to yell at me~ Oh hehehe~ Don't be busy, don't be busy, when I finish eating, I'm not in a hurry~"
Look at the speed at which he eats, if you wait for him to finish eating, I'm afraid you won't have to wait until dark.
The white bear was short-tempered, how could he stand this, without saying a word, he strode forward, and when he lifted the size of a sand bowl, he smashed it with an old fist.
But he didn't want to, he came fast and went faster.
The old monk didn't even bother to get up, he just let out a long sigh, waved the broken grass fan in his hand, and fanned it like a cool breeze, and the almost two-hundred-pound body of the white bear who had just run in front of the monk flew straight out, rolled to the ground with a bang, and fainted.
As if he had done a trivial matter, the old monk dug his nostrils, dug out a large lump of black boogers, and flicked his hand, and the black bear who snatched over to check the white bear's injuries was about to open his mouth to scold, and the boogers flew straight into the mouth of the black bear, and the black bear immediately covered his throat, his face was white and red, and finally opened his mouth, and spit it out.
This time the heroes were shocked.
Although Mobei Shuangxiong's kung fu is not too strong, it is not weak, in front of this crazy old monk, he is like a newborn baby, without the power to resist.
The crazy monk subdued Mobei Shuangxiong casually, and half-squinted his eyes, as if he was a drunkard who had been drunk for seven points, and said with a smile: "Hey~Yay~ The young man now~ The ability is not very good, this temper is really ~ not small~ Yo hehehe~ I don't know who else ~ can come over with me and have a drink~ Drink alone, that's really ~ Hiccup ~ It's really boring ~ Hiccup ~ Thorough ~"
He hiccups while talking, looking very weird, but none of the people present thought he was ridiculous.
After all, Chen Xiao is the leader, and he knows that this level should be the test given to him by the Shaolin Temple. If you can't pass this level, then wanting to go to Shaolin is tantamount to a fool's dream.
At that moment, he stepped forward with a serious face, and shook his fist at the crazy monk, his voice was still full of respect: "This senior, the kid wants to go to the Shaolin Temple to welcome back a friend of mine, and I hope that the senior will make it convenient." ”
The crazy monk glanced at Chen Xiao, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "You're here to pick up your friends~ That~ I don't know if you're going to pick up your boyfriend~ or girlfriend~?" Is it a big friend~ or a little friend? The answer is not accurate, that is not good~"
Chen Xiao said respectfully: "It's a girlfriend." Well, yes, it's the kid's wife. ”
When he said this in public, although the people present were afraid of the mysterious monk's world-beating martial arts, they still couldn't help but shout out for Chen Xiao, and for a while they only felt that only a frank person like Chen Xiao was worthy of the undefeated love of the East.
After Chen Xiao said this, the crazy monk actually smiled and said: "Yo~ Speaking of which, there is still ~ really a female doll on this mountain ~ It seems that he is really waiting for something~ someone is coming~ Could it be you~~?" ”
There really is a woman on the mountain! Chen Xiao's heart was pounding like a drum, his spirit was in a trance, and he hurriedly asked, "Senior, that girl is twenty-six or seventeen years old, dressed in red, and extremely tall?" ”
Sister Yu, it's you, it must be you, right?
The monk shook his head and thought for a while, and said with a smile: "En~En~ There is such a female doll, but he is not wearing a red dress~ Eh~ He is quite tall, and I don't know if it is the person you are looking for~"
It must be, it must be!
Chen Xiao exerted all his strength to suppress the excitement of his mood, and said urgently to the crazy monk: "Senior, can the kid go up to see him?" I'm the only one, I'm the only one to go! I, I'm here to pick her up! ”
But I didn't want the monk to wave his fan slowly, and said, "No~okay~"
