Songshan is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, east of the old capital of the Great Song Dynasty Bianliang, west of the thousand-year-old city of Luoyang, known as "Bianluo two capitals, the famous mountain in Jinnei".

The peaks of Songshan are strange and majestic, and there are many palaces on the mountain, including the ancestral court Songlin Temple of Zen Buddhism, and the great faction that has stood in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and is also established under the five milk peaks of Shaomu Mountain.

It's just in the context of the prosperity of Taoism and the decline of Buddhism.

The geographical location of Songlin Temple, and not too far from the border of Song and Jin, the embarrassing situation and the chaos in the temple several times, finally caused the martial arts Songlin Temple, not to perform in the rivers and lakes for decades.

But this is only limited to not participating in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and it is not a complete severance of communication with the outside world.

On this day, Zhao Kong, who had changed into a strong suit, stepped into this ancient temple openly.

Although he did not report his history, he was affected by the bloodline of the Netherworld Demon Ape, and his stout figure of nearly two meters was like the qi and blood of a great river, even if he hid the cultivation of Taiji Xuanqing Dao, the great monks of Songlin Temple would not treat him as an ordinary person.

However, before Zhao Kong entered the mountain gate, he explained to the welcoming monk that he came here only to visit the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, not a matter of the rivers and lakes.

Of course, no matter how beautiful Zhao Kong said, there are still three monks with a heart to follow him at this moment, which is called to guide the distinguished guests to visit, but in fact, to prevent him from misbehaving.

The heart of the word generation is the Songlin Temple is currently in the prime of life, although there are no outstanding figures, but relying on the profound martial arts heritage in the temple, these three monks are also first-class level figures.

The previous generation of bitter monks, because of the fire foreman Tuo, the strongest ones were either killed or injured or left, and there are currently only four old monks left, who are in retreat in several places in the temple and do not ask about the world.

The next Tianzi generation is not very old, although there are a few good qualifications, but the martial arts of Buddhism are rarely quick to achieve, and Songlin's various exercises are extremely important.

Although the Tianzi monk is about the same age as Zhao Kong, he is obviously not Zhao Kong's opponent.

Therefore, we can only come to a few more great monks with hearts, and guard against Zhao Kong, who is not as good as a good generation.

However, since Zhao Kong went up the mountain openly, it was naturally impossible to go to the traitor department, and honestly under the leadership of the three great monks, he went to visit various places of interest in the temple.

Especially when Zhao Kong entered the various halls and pretended to worship the Buddha, he sprinkled thousands of taels of silver sesame oil money, which made these monks who had greatly reduced their income smile because they were not involved in the rivers and lakes.

He only watched from a distance when he passed through the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, listening to the introduction of the leading monk, and did not show the slightest intention of wanting to enter, which also made the accompanying monks breathe a sigh of relief.

When the sun was setting in the west, Zhao Kong also roughly turned the Songlin Temple.

This trip not only recorded the terrain and architecture, but also confirmed that there is no innate first-class master in Songlin Temple.

In this realm, there is no way to conceal the breath, nor is there a consciousness to hide one's own sense of existence.

With Zhao Kong's current spiritual strength, the vigorous innate true qi in their bodies was like a huge flame, which could be faintly detected from afar.

Zhao Kong has been distracted from exploring during his tour for most of the day, although many buildings and venues have not entered, but there is not a single breath that can make him alert.

Thinking about it, the Fighting Wine Monk who created the "Jiuyang True Scripture" either left or passed away.

Zhao Kong, who has already completed the stepping work, just waited for the night to sneak in and loot, and now that he has a storage bag with him, it is not too easy to do this work.

But things in the world often surprise people, and when Zhao Kong was about to go down the mountain, a tall young monk walked up to him and folded his hands.

"Amitabha, the little monk Tianming has seen Zhao Shizhu, and the abbot of the family teacher wants to meet with the donor, I don't know if Zhao Shizhu can take the time to go."

Zhao Kong first took a few more looks, the future Songlin abbot Tianming, and then guessed from his words that Songlin Temple probably found out his identity, and asked him to go to a showdown at this moment.

This is also a matter of course, even if Songlin does not participate in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, there must still be some basic intelligence channels.

Zhao Kong was in the limelight during this time, and the succession ceremony repelled Qiu Qianren, and the Peach Blossom Island was commensurate with the East Evil Brothers, and Luoyang City and the Northern Beggars fought to a draw.

Such a top master who has been recognized by the rivers and lakes, coupled with his majestic physique that is difficult to hide, if Songlin Temple can't find out his true identity for most of the day, then it's called a ghost.

In the face of the Songlin Temple, which has not recovered its vitality, there is no congenital strongman, and the situation is embarrassing and unspeakable.

Zhao Kong didn't care what they thought, even if he guessed that he had stolen a lot of exercises, what could he do with him and the Giant Whale Gang?

Therefore, Zhao Kong nodded meaninglessly, and walked towards the temple under the leadership of Tianming, until he walked to a large meditation room, and Tianming stopped and said to Zhao Kong.

"Master Zhao, the family teacher is waiting in the house, and the little monk will not go in, the donor is invited."

Zhao Kong was not afraid of any ambush by these great monks, and said to Tianming casually: "Thank you, little master." ”

Then he strode into the meditation room, leaving behind a somewhat surprised monk Tianming.

The simple layout in the meditation room surprised Zhao Kong, no matter how it was said that this was also the place where the abbot of Songlin received people, there was only a wooden table in the middle, and a chair was placed on each side.

There is a Buddha shrine in the west, which houses a Buddha statue, and there is no other worship item in front of the Buddha statue except for a few green smoke.

Even the Buddha shrines, Buddha statues, and incense burners look like ordinary objects.

There is a meditation bed on the east side of the meditation room, and on the wall next to the meditation bed is a big word "Buddha".

A great monk in the prime of life is sitting on a meditation bed knocking on a wooden fish and chanting sutras.

Zhao Kong didn't wait for Abbot Xincheng to finish reciting the scriptures, and walked directly to the meditation bed and said.

"The giant whale gang Zhao Kong, I have seen the abbot of Xincheng."

Xincheng didn't expect Zhao Kong to have a showdown when he entered the door, so he had to stop chanting, put down the gandhammer in his hand, folded his hands and returned the salute, and said unhurriedly.

"Gang Master Zhao doesn't have to be polite, although my Songlin Temple has not been in the rivers and lakes for many years, I have also heard of the prestige of Gang Master Zhao, I don't know what is important to come to my Songlin this time?"

Zhao Kong smiled and said: "I said that I just came to Songlin for a tour, presumably the abbot won't believe it, so why does the abbot think I came to Songlin?" ”

Xincheng listened to this somewhat unkind words, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he said after a moment of silence.

"Although my Songlin Temple has not asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes for many years, it is not a person to be bullied, and the Zhao gang leader really wants to provoke disputes between the two families?"

Hearing Xincheng's slightly threatening words, Zhao Kong laughed out loud without care.

"If I really want to provoke a dispute between the two families, I won't go up the mountain alone, besides, now that the weakened Songlin is fighting, what can I do to fight the Giant Whale Gang? Which master can fight with me again! ”

Although Zhao Kong's words were arrogant, Song Lin's weakness was also a fact.

At least Xin Cheng listened to Zhao Kong's threat, and the rest of his heart was helpless except for sadness.

Yes, the timing of Zhao Kong's arrival was quite coincidental.

Songlin's last innate master, the Doujiu Monk who was not weaker than the Divine Power Wang Chongyang, had passed away two years ago.

Although there are eighteen Arhat arrays in the temple that can fight the innate ones, the one hundred and eight Arhat arrays can even surround and kill the strong people who have just entered the innate world.

But the great array is dead, and the people are alive.

The congenital strong person insists on not entering the battle, and a group of second-rate top monks, how can they catch up with each other.

What's more, Zhao Kong, an innate powerhouse who has achieved great external achievements, is the most unafraid of the siege of the weak.

If there was no strong man with a little difference in strength to contain and delay, Zhao Kong could completely stay away from these big formations and do whatever he wanted in the temple.

Therefore, the Songlin Temple, which is now green and yellow, is really unable to fight with Zhao Kong.

Abbot Xincheng's face was blue and red for a while, but after weighing the pros and cons, he still suppressed the anger in his heart, closed his eyes and chanted the Buddha's name, and said to Zhao Kong expressionlessly.

"Amitabha, Gang Master Zhao can tell your purpose, and the things that can be allowed can be agreed directly to the old man, and the things that cannot be accepted will not give in even if the jade is burned in our temple."

Hearing the determination in Xincheng's words, Zhao Kong no longer deliberately provoked the other party.

"Abbot Xincheng, Zhao won't go around in circles with you anymore, the fundamental exercises I practice are a bit special, and I need to learn and confirm the strengths of a hundred martial arts in order to go further."

It was impossible for Zhao Kong to tell the other party the secret of the Ten Thousand Worlds Mall, so he could only make up such an excuse.

Although there are not many exercises in the Condor World similar to the Murong family's way of returning the other body, Yi Songlin's background must have been heard.

Xincheng's face was quite ugly after hearing this, and he was silent for a moment before sighing helplessly.

"Alas, I don't know which of my temple's exercises Gang Master Zhao has taken a fancy to, please make it clear."

Zhao Kong shook his head and said, "If I force the exercises of your temple, it will be a bit deceitful. As far as I know, your temple should have collected a lot of martial arts from various factions in the rivers and lakes, Zhao just asked to read these martial arts once, and after reading it, he went down the mountain directly, and never disturbed the tranquility of your temple again. ”

Seventy-two stunts have already gotten more than sixty doors from the Huanshi Water Pavilion before, and now there may not be this number in the Songlin Scripture Pavilion, so Zhao Kong naturally has no need to get another one.

In addition, Songlin also has two innate martial arts, "Yijin Sutra" and "Jiuyang Zhenjing".

The "Nine Yang True Scripture" didn't even know about themselves, and Zhao Kong could get it quietly, and there were almost no hidden dangers.

The practice of "Yijin Sutra" is of great significance to Songlin Temple, and it has exceeded its own value.

Moreover, it is extremely difficult to cultivate the Yijin Sutra, and Zhao Kong himself can't use it, and he already has it in the Wanjie Mall, so if he can't exchange points, there is really no need to completely force these monks.

Therefore, Zhao Kong chose to see the cheats of various factions collected by Songlin Temple, which could not only reduce contradictions, but also have more hope of getting the martial arts that were not collected by the Wanjie Mall.

Hearing Zhao Kong say this, although Xincheng's face was still not good, he was stable in his heart, and Zhao Kong's request finally did not exceed his bottom line.

Although those martial arts of his sect are also very precious, they do not involve the inheritance of Songlin Temple itself, so it is not too much of a problem.

At most, it is revealed that the ancestors are not very clean, and it is not a big deal for Songlin Temple, which is no longer in the rivers and lakes.

"Alas, Buddhism is compassionate, and it is inevitable that the blood of the two factions will flow like a river, and the Zhao gang leader's request Lao Wei agreed, but please don't tell others about this matter."

In the end, Xincheng, who had compromised, sighed and asked Zhao Kong to cover his ears and steal the bell.

There was no conflict between the Giant Whale Gang and Songlin Temple, and Zhao Kong had no intention of ruining the reputation of Songlin Temple, so he naturally agreed to this kind of inconsequential matter.

……

Lin'an of the Song Kingdom, Prime Minister Shi Miyuan was in the house.

This vast and imposing mansion, no less than the Imperial Palace, is patrolled by a large number of sword-armed guards.

Judging from the shape of their walking, they are basically third-rate or even second-rate masters, but they are surrounded by the power of money and power, and they are willing to be the dogs of guarding the household when they enter this prime minister's mansion.

Shi Miyuan was sitting in the study, this treacherous appearance who was smiling kindly all the time and paralyzing others, was holding the information in his hand at the moment, looking at the master kneeling below with a frosty face.

"When Zhao Yi just died, I asked you to cut the grass and eradicate the roots to prevent future troubles, and now that Zhao Kong's little cub has stepped into the congenital, and has been told the truth by the old beggar, maybe he will touch the prime minister's mansion tonight and take my head! You say, are you trying to kill your true nature? ”

The master who was kneeling on the ground didn't dare to quibble, and knocked on the ground before raising his head and whispering.

"Xiang Ye, the Giant Whale Gang Zhao Kong is proud of his superior martial arts, young and impulsive, and has offended many people in the rivers and lakes, as long as Xiang Ye gives those brainless and reckless men a vague promise, he can use his strength to fight and unite the masters who are dissatisfied with him, and encircle and suppress Zhao Kong and the Giant Whale Gang together."

After Shi Miyuan heard what the master said, the round face that was originally frowning deeply finally eased a little.

Shi Miyuan, who was accustomed to officialdom struggles, was really afraid that Zhao Kong would be desperate and sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion to kill him to take revenge.

With the guardian power of Shi Miyuan's mansion, if the innate master rushes head-on, he will definitely be enshrined by several first-class strengths, with a large number of second- and third-rate martial artists.

But if the innate master chooses to sneak in the dark night, those offerings in the house may not be able to be discovered, and there are only a thousand days to catch thieves, how can they prevent thieves for a thousand days?

Therefore, Zhao Kong, who knew the truth, would not die for a day, and Shi Miyuan would be unable to sleep peacefully for a day.

"Hurry up and get this done, if something goes wrong...... Hum! ”
