Chapter 51: Shaolin Temple Lingyan

Songshan Shaolin Scenic Area is located in Dengfeng City, Henan Province. Mt. Song, which is composed of Mt. Taimuro (1,494 m by sea) and Mt. Shaomuro (1,512 m by sea), stands majestically in the Central Plains, with towering peaks and mountains. Located in the ancient capital of Bian, between Luo, since ancient times for the literati to gather, the emperors of the past dynasties, the literati to learn the soil, the famous monks, the boxers and heroes left a large number of places of interest and historic sites, such as the Shaolin Temple that was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the large-scale Zhongyue Temple, one of the four major academies in our country Songyang Academy and the two "general cypresses" in the courtyard, as well as the oldest existing Songyue Temple tower in our country, the Tai Room, the Shao Room, the Qimu Three Han Que and the ancient astronomical observatory, etc.

Shaolin Temple is a holy place for martial arts in the minds of many people, and many people really go to Songshan Shaolin to learn Shaolin kung fu. But what I want to say is that Shaolin really had martial arts masters before the Republic of China, not to mention the cornices, it is still okay to win more with less like special forces.

During the Republic of China (1911-1949), Shaolin Temple suffered a major man-made fire. In 1928, the warlords fought and affected the Shaolin Temple, the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the Zangjing Pavilion and other important buildings and collections, all of which were burned down and suffered heavy losses.

Zhongyue Songshan is composed of Taimur Mountain and Shaomuro Mountain, and the Shaolin Temple we are going to talk about today is Shaomuro Mountain on Songshan Mountain.

Duan Rui came out of the customs on the first day of September, and the people of the Xiaoyao faction, except for Wang Yuyan, were all sent by him to find out who Master Xuzhu was before he went into retreat. Flash Dance

The people of the Carefree faction also lived up to expectations, and inquired who the second master of Xuzhu was.

You heard it right, it's the second master. Xuzhu's martial arts are all from this so-called second master, and the reason why the second master is caused by Xuzhu because he does not worship his master.

Xuzhu was placed in the Shaolin vegetable garden by Xiao Yuanshan since he was a child, and was found by Huilun, who planted vegetables, and reported to the abbot, who measured his physique to the extreme, and accepted him as a disciple of the three generations of Shaolin.

Huilun seems to have a fate with it, seeing that Huilun is very well-behaved, and other monks are crying and making trouble, but Xuanci asks Huilun to accept him as a disciple, and the law name is Xuzhu.

Hui Lun's cultivation is low, and he is also the kind of person who is not outstanding in the crowd among the Hui characters, and even some disciples of the Void Character generation will not take him seriously, but he is kind and does not care.

Under his teaching, although Xuzhu is stupid, his heart is very good, and he is wise and foolish.

In the thirty-ninth chapter of the Heavenly Dragon, it is said: 'When Huilun saw him returning, he was surprised and delighted, and asked, "The abbot sent you out of the temple to write a book, why did you not come back until today?" Xuzhu fell to the ground, repentant, cried loudly, and said, "Master, disciple...... The disciple is really damned, after going down the mountain, he is uncertain, and the master will be ...... Master's ordinary teachings are all ...... None of them comply. Hui Lun's face changed color and asked, "What...... How? Are you stained with meat? Xuzhu said: "Yes, it's not just meat." Hui Lun scolded: "Damn, damn! You...... Did you drink alcohol? Xuzhu said: "The disciple not only drank alcohol, but also got drunk like mud. Hui Lun sighed, two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, and said: "I see that you have been loyal and honest since you were a child, how did you fall into such a depravity as soon as you came to the world of flowers, cough, cough ......" Xuzhu saw that the master was sad, and he was even more frightened, and said: "The master is above, and the precepts committed by the disciple are even better than these, and ...... also committed ......". ’

The two of them treat their disciples as relatives sincerely, and Xuzhu also regards them as long, and they dare not overstep, and they are respectful. In Tianlong, even if Xuzhu's status in the Xiaoyao School is on the same level as Xuanci, and his martial arts are slightly better than Xuanci, in front of Shaolin disciples such as Huilun, he is only a disciple of the Xuzi generation.

The second master of Xuzhu is a senior monk of the Shaolin Lingzi generation, and his legal name is Lingyan.

Lingyan is the uncle of Shaolin abbot Xuan Ci, Lingyan was attracted by the secular world of flowers when he was young, and also leaked some private things of Shaolin because of the treacherous tricks of ignorant people, resulting in two serious injuries to the uncle of the Shaolin Wuzi generation, and more than ten brothers of the Lingzi generation were killed.

Although his master and the two injured uncles did not blame him, he could not forgive himself, and he himself knew that the Shaolin disciples had a lot of complaints about him because of this incident.

He disappeared alone on Shaomu Mountain, no one knew where he went, his master and the entire Shaolin people did not find him, in fact, he was still in Shaomu Mountain, and he didn't go far.

However, he had his own fate, he originally just wanted to find a place to face the wall and think, but unexpectedly, his feet fell into a deep pit and he couldn't go up.

Lingyan thought to himself that this seems to be good, no one knows about this place, he thought about it on the wall, but he didn't expect that this place didn't seem to be so simple, he found a lot of Shaolin monks' bodies and weapons here, and after looking back, he wanted to know where this was.

This is the place where Bodhidharma used to sit in meditation and teach the Dharma, and it is also the place where Bodhidharma retreated and practiced, but later there was a monk with super high qualifications who went mad here, and his cultivation was greatly increased and he wantonly slaughtered Shaolin disciples. The abbot had no choice but to let everyone kill him, and that battle happened in this place where Dharma retreated, and the Shaolin prestige of that battle was greatly reduced, and the blockade of the mountain gate was not in the WTO.

This place was also blocked, Shaolin disciples were not allowed to enter, and over time it became desolate, overgrown with weeds and left unattended.

Now, even if his master is savvy, he probably only knows that there is a place in the mountain behind the Shaolin Temple that is a place for Dharma retreat, but he can't find its location.

It was here that Lingyan obtained the inscription of Bodhidharma, and he practiced in retreat for decades without going out to see the world. Unexpectedly, he was hungry and uncomfortable as soon as he came out, so Xuzhu Xinshan gave him his own food and took him to the fasting room to look for food.

Unexpectedly, Xuzhu made people difficult, and Lingyan was also humiliated, Lingyan was so angry that he shouted the abbot Xuanci to be beaten violently, and he didn't care about Xuanci's old age or something, and later Lingyan showed his identity to accept Xuzhu as a disciple, although Xuanci had a whisper but didn't say anything.

Huilun knew that he was also happy for Xuzhu, but he was still a little sad, Xuzhu saw this and resolutely did not worship Lingyan as a teacher, Huilun was annoyed to fight Xuzhu, Xuanci came forward and said that Xuzhu worshiped under Lingyan, but the name was still under Huilunmen, Xuzhu had two masters, Xuzhu immediately agreed, although Lingyan was dissatisfied but did not say anything.

Ling Yan could see that Xuzhu was reluctant to Huilun, and he was a real lover, and he found that Xuzhu was not extremely poorly qualified, but wise and foolish, so he didn't pursue it too much, after all, there was such a disciple who was not worried that he would murder himself!

Xuan Ci is the happiest, after all, Ling Yan is a spiritual generation, his uncle, and he makes a disciple of his own become his junior brother, which makes him unable to let go of his old face!

Although it's a bit insidious to do this, isn't it for everyone's good! Xuzhu worships Lingyan as a teacher, Huilun and Lingyan are happy, let him have two masters, he doesn't have to call him a junior brother, he is also happy! Everyone is happy, so why not!
