Chapter 50: Departure from Shaolin

Shaolin Temple was built in the nineteenth year of Taihe of the Northern Wei Dynasty, that is, in 495 AD.

In the third year of Emperor Xiaoming of the Northern Wei Dynasty (527 years), the 28th generation of Shakyamuni Buddha Bodhidharma came to Shaolin Temple, and on the basis of his creation, he gathered believers and taught Zen Buddhism.

In the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui worshiped Buddha and gave Shaolin Temple a hundred hectares of land, plus other rewards, Shaolin Temple became a large temple with 100 hectares of fertile land and huge temple property.

During the Tang and Song dynasties, Shaolin Temple has more than 14,000 acres of land, 540 acres of temple foundation, more than 5,000 buildings and palaces, and more than 2,000 monks.

In the novels Xu Hao has read in the past, many protagonists are full of anger and murderous intent as soon as they see the monk.

Why?

The authors' explanation is that the Shaolin monks do not produce, do not contribute to the country and society at all, and hide filth and dirt, as long as the murderous demons who put down the butcher knife can be ordained as a monk, and hide in the temple in the name of repentance before the Buddha.

Well, everyone has their own worldview, you can't just bully the monk's family.

Every group organization can't be 100% pure, there are always a few scumbags, right?

In the history of the real world, during the Jiajing period, the Japanese Japanese invaded the coast of China, and the Shaolin monks went out to resist the Japanese, so the imperial court repaired the temple on a large scale.

During the Ming Dynasty, it is recorded that Shaolin Temple had accepted six conscriptions from the imperial court, participated in wars, and made many meritorious achievements.

During the anti-Japanese period, many monks also went down the mountain to fight devils and participate in the liberation struggle.

So you can't look at a group organization one-sidedly, and it's not a world organization.

Far away, Xu Hao didn't want to go up and destroy other people's doors without a head or brain, and then take other people's exercises away.

People are watching the sky, in case they go to the world of Journey to the West in the future, and the big man of Sakyamuni will see that you have the blood of the Buddha on your body, isn't this a complete calf.

For Shaolin Temple and even the entire Buddhism, Xu Hao really doesn't like it very much, but there is no need to make enemies.

They are all adults, the benefits should be maximized, the costs should be minimized, and even the criminals know how to reduce the risks.

About 400 kilometers from Xiangyang to Zhengzhou, where Shaolin is located, Xu Hao's physical strength is now a step further and he can withstand greater speed, which means that he is now using his mental power with all his strength, and he can make his flight speed break through the speed of sound.

It only takes more than 20 minutes to fly over, which is sharper than an airplane!

But isn't it good to walk, I haven't appreciated the scenery of this ancient world yet!

decided to go to Shaolin, so naturally you have to be prepared.

The big iron box with the ingots is good, so bring it with you. After getting the martial arts cheats of Shaolin Temple, you can put it inside, lock it with a lock, and prevent fire and theft.

Then prepare four large sedan carriages, one to sit by himself, one to put boxes, one to sit on Mu Nianci, and the last one to put sundries to eat.

There should be a cook with him, and then a few horse-drawn carriages and chores.

After a simple day of preparation, Xu Hao took Mu Nianci and the sticky little tiger girl on the road.

Leading the way was an old cook named Lao Wang in the manor, the only one in the ranks who had ever been to Shaolin. I heard that he longed for the rivers and lakes when he was young, so he left home and went out alone, but in order to mix rice, he became an apprentice in a restaurant, learned a good cooking skill, and had a rich experience in traveling north and south over the years.

From Xiangyang to the north to Zhengzhou, the middle should pass through Nanyang City and Pingdingshan.

The group left Xiangyang City and drove the carriage on the official road to Nanyang.

Mu Nianci held her baby Tiger Niu and Xu Hao in a carriage, the two talked and laughed along the way, and General Hu Niu was running and jumping in the narrow sedan chair, so lively.

After this little guy was adopted, he was served with good food and drink every day, his little belly was round, and his buttocks twisted when he walked.

"Brother Li, you haven't told me what we're going to Shaolin for!"

Holding the dishonest little guy in his arms and stroking his hair, Xu Hao looked at Mu Nianci and said with a smile: "It is said that the world's martial arts are out of Shaolin, Brother Li is okay except for flying knives, but his fist and foot kung fu is not as good as you, doesn't Shaolin Temple have seventy-two stunts, let's go over to learn from the teacher." ”

"Humph! Those bald donkeys, you can't learn anything! I see you, this time you have to go home empty-handed! ”

Mu Nianci frowned and said unhappily, and pouted under her upturned nose, with a little dissatisfaction and disgust.

Seeing her reaction, Xu Hao said that there was a situation, put away his chuckle and asked suspiciously, "Oh, did the monk offend you?" ”

"No, I just hate them for no reason, huh!"

"Okay, let's dissipate my anger, can Nianci tell my eldest brother why he hates it?"

Mu Nianci nodded, and began to analyze the reason for Xu Hao's dislike of monks: "You see, a hundred and ten years ago, I heard that Shaolin was the biggest force in the rivers and lakes at that time, and the monks in the temple were all extraordinary in martial arts, and no one dared to provoke them.

How do you know that when the war is chaotic, they will close the mountain and not come out, and they are called studying Buddhism behind closed doors, which is one of them.

Second, those monks obviously have their own fields, and they still go around to seek fasting, and some of the poor people who are not knowledgeable can not eat enough and still help them, do you say it harms people?

Not only that, but they deceived everyone and asked the worshippers of the Buddha to donate money to give the Buddha statue a golden body.

As a member of the Great Song Dynasty, when the country was dying, he closed his door and became a turtle with a shrunken head, and when the war was over, he ran out to show off his might, the first major sect in the world, which is really annoying to me! ”

Xu Hao listened to her and lowered his head and pondered, Mu Nianci said well, these Shaolin in the martial arts world are really fucked, they are talking about compassion, and they are doing the work of harming the people behind their backs, they really should be scolded.

The most important thing is to choose to hide in the face of the country's righteousness, how is it different from a traitor?

I was stupid when I chanted the Buddha, and I didn't know whose blood was flowing in my body!

"You know what? Others accuse them of not taking responsibility in the face of national disasters, how did those monks answer? They say all beings are equal! If all living beings are equal, should we Han people be bullied and killed at will? ”

"Okay, okay, let's not be angry, this time Brother Li gave you this breath, Mu Nuxia will dissipate his anger, okay!" Xu Hao looked at the little girl with his arms crossed and hugged her chest with tears and smiled, and stroked her back.

It seems that this girl has been instilled by Yang Tiexin with the idea of protecting the family and defending the country since she was a child, so this kind of person is particularly disgusted and even hated by those who don't care about the country and only care about themselves.

…………

Along the way, Xu Haojing teased Mu Nianci with witty words, which made the girl with a lot of temperament smile.

Lifting the curtain of the sedan chair and looking out, before you know it, the sun is about to set, and the sunset is like a red dress fluttering in the sky.

"Young master, there is a small city more than ten miles ahead, we will repair here tonight, and we will be able to reach Nanyang at noon by hurrying tomorrow morning." Lao Wang, who was driving outside the car, said into the car.
