Huo Yuanzhen still remembers that when Dongfang Qing left, she told herself that if she went well, she would be able to come back in three months.

I left at the beginning of October, and now it is late December, and tomorrow will be the New Year.

But at this time, Dongfang Qing didn't have any news, which couldn't help but make Huo Yuanzhen worried.

If the Holy Mother of Great Xia was really Li Qinghua, it was impossible for Dongfang Qing not to know such a big movement, because she went to the Western Regions to find Li Qinghua.

It's been almost three months, and it is impossible for Dongfang Qing not to get any news at all, and he has gotten the news while sitting in the Shaolin Temple.

And Dongfang Qing is congenitally perfect, under the kind of magical ability that is almost heaven and earth, what can be hidden from her?

If this Fallen Flower Lady is really Li Qinghua, then it is very likely that she has already met Dongfang Qing, and it is very likely that the two of them have already fought each other.

But Dongfang Qing didn't come back, and Li Qinghua became the Holy Mother of Great Xia!

I still remember Dongfang Qing said that Li Qinghua's martial arts in other aspects are not very strong, and if she does it, she is definitely not Dongfang Qing's opponent, her only strength, that is, her strongest point, is her sword.

Thinking of the characteristics of Xiao Li's flying knife, the sweat on Huo Yuanzhen's forehead suddenly flowed.

If Dongfang Qing fights with Li Qinghua, the victory or defeat may be an instant, dodge her knife, Dongfang Qing wins, can't dodge her knife, Dongfang Qing dies!

Huo Yuanzhen's originally calm cultivation heart was in turmoil at this moment, and he could no longer continue to cultivate.

Henan and the northwest are still far away, and earth-shaking changes have taken place over there, but I can only watch and wait powerlessly here.

If the Shaolin Temple is like the Demon Sect, the rudder is all over the world, and any news can be transmitted back in time. Where, as now, after hearing the occasional piece of news. I was anxiously scratching my ears and cheeks at home. Overwhelmed.

When you finally make a decision and are ready to deal with it, you find that the previous message is outdated.

Now the first thing Huo Yuanzhen needs to know is this Falling Flower Divine Sect. Is it Li Qinghua's sect?

Do you want to take the Golden-Eyed Eagle and fly to the Western Regions again?

When he was in a dilemma, Huiyuan came to report outside. Said it was a light coming.

Huo Yuanzhen thought that their Zhao family's country was threatened, and Yideng might not be able to sit still.

I just couldn't sit still. Now a light is coming. Huo Yuanzhen felt a little calmer in his heart, and told Hui Yuan to invite a lamp in, Huo Yuanzhen brewed strong tea indoors, now that the weather is cold, it still feels good to drink some hot tea.

Yideng came indoors and saluted Huo Yuanzhen. Then he sat down, and he didn't see how anxious he was. picked up the teacup and drank it slowly, and took the initiative to discuss the tea ceremony with Huo Yuanzhen.

Yideng not only greatly improved his skills, but also exercised his qi cultivation kung fu well, Huo Yuanzhen nodded secretly, and chatted with Yideng Tiannanhaibei for a while, and Yideng got to the point.

"Abbot, junior brother, I came to you to discuss something with you. ”

"The junior brother has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to speak. ”

"Senior Brother Abbot may have also heard that now that the army of the Northwest Imperial Court has been defeated, and most of the entire Northwest and Western Regions have now become Ma Daoyuan's territory, and the Great Xia Kingdom is still to be established, does the abbot know about this?"

"The poor monk has just heard about it. ”

"Senior brother, junior brother is not here to ask the abbot to help my nephew who is not a good thing, now the junior brother is already a monk, when the country is in danger, the abbot helped him ascend to the throne, but the country is not good, it is his own problem, if he really loses the country, it is also the Tang Dynasty, he will be exhausted, he can't complain about others, and the junior brother will not care. ”

Hearing Yideng say this, Huo Yuan was a little surprised: "Oh, what does the junior brother mean by coming here?"

"That's the case, the northwest is initially decided, Great Xia is about to establish a country, this matter is irreversible, whether Yuan Kui wants it or not, nothing can be changed, and the Tang Dynasty is not able to conquer Great Xia for the time being. The junior brother came to find the senior brother, is to discuss with the senior brother, our Shaolin Temple is located in the Central Plains, except for some troubles when Guan Tianzhao was divided, it has always been peaceful, the monks of the temple have also enjoyed a comfortable life for a long time, and the abbot has always attached importance to the diet and daily life of the monks, it can be said that in addition to not drinking wine and eating meat, the monks enjoy more than ordinary people, which is probably not good for practice. ”

Hearing Yideng's words, Huo Yuanzhen nodded slightly, what Yideng said was very reasonable.

When he just crossed over, Huo Yuanzhen, for his own reasons, thought that Shaolin disciples could not live too badly in other aspects except for being bound by the precepts of Buddhism and not being able to do some lewdness, lies, wine and meat, etc.

But after living like this for a long time, it runs counter to the original intention of Buddhism.

Material life can be had, but not too much, Shaolin is still Buddhism, or to cultivate the monks' hard and simple style, cultivate everyone's hard-working spirit, so that it can last for a long time.

Otherwise, one day suddenly the incense in the temple will not work, and everyone will have no new clothes to wear, and no vegetables to eat all year round.

It is not enough to be able to endure hardships together, but not to enjoy it alone.

"What the junior brother said makes sense, since you said so, you must already have some plan in your heart, say it and listen to it. ”

Only then did Yi Deng speak: "The northwest region, located in the bitter cold, the people live in poverty, they need spiritual faith, and Ma Daoyuan has not officially ascended the throne, he began to go against the grain, and set up a Falling Flower God Cult as the state religion, this matter sooner or later he will lift a stone and hit his own feet." ”

When Huo Yuanzhen heard this, his heart moved, but he didn't ask questions immediately, waiting for Yideng to finish speaking.

"The junior brother thinks that we should organize Shaolin disciples, organize about 100 people, as ascetics, led by the junior disciple himself, to the Western Regions on foot, without a penny, to the Western Regions to educate those border people, so that they can believe in our Buddha and find spiritual sustenance. ”

"Amitabha!"

Huo Yuanzhen pronounced a Buddha name: "The compassion and willingness of the senior brother made the poor monk awe-inspired, thinking about it, there is really something feasible." ”

"That's right, if we go to the Western Regions like this, we can kill two birds with one stone, not only can we train our disciples. And I can also spread the Dharma, and I had this idea a long time ago. It's just that there has never been a suitable opportunity to implement it. Now that the northwest has been decided, people need to have a spirit of faith and sustenance, so the junior brother has strengthened this idea. ”

Huo Yuanzhen thought for a while: "The poor monk basically agrees with this matter, if he wants to go to the Western Regions." Then you have to take things seriously, and the disciples you are looking for must also be proficient in the Dharma. Those who know the true meaning of cultivation. ”

"Well, I've actually thought about the candidates a lot, so I'm just waiting for the abbot to say a word. ”

"One more point. Even if we go to the Western Regions, we can. But after you go, what is the goal? You can't go aimlessly, you have to have a set line. ”

"This point has also been thought about by the junior brother, before there are Buddhism in the northwest region invited us Shaolin to study and discuss Buddhism together, among which the Ganlin Temple in Shazhou is the real Buddhism, the junior brother intends to be the first stop of our trip. It is to arrive at Ganlin Temple, and then enter the Western Regions from Ganlin Temple. ”

Hear a light say that. Huo Yuanzhen nodded frequently: "I thought about it in detail and did it very well, but there is one thing I don't know if you have thought about, that is, Ma Daoyuan is about to establish a country, and he once said that all the people of Daxia are not allowed to believe in other sects, you can not believe in the Falling Flower God Sect, but you can't believe in anything else, you go like this, aren't you throwing yourself into the net." "...,"I have also considered this matter, first of all, we will go, we will not make a noise, just the ascetics go to the northwest, I believe they will not care, and the area we want to focus on propaganda is the Western Regions, not the northwest region, it is those places that have just been incorporated into the territory of Great Xia." In these places, it is too late for Great Xia to pacify, how can it be suppressed, so the abbot can rest assured. ”

Huo Yuanzhen was still a little uneasy, and asked Yideng: "Among the countries of the Western Regions, which countries are now included in Ma Daoyuan's rule?"

Yideng thought for a while: "There is no too accurate news on this matter, but it is said that among the five countries of the Western Regions, Wusun seems to have become the land of Great Xia, but the Gaochang Kingdom, Loulan Kingdom, etc., are still in a hostile state with Ma Daoyuan." ”

"If you set out, you must be clear about this matter, otherwise there is still no clear purpose and no key goal. ”

Huo Yuanzhen gave a few instructions, and did not say when to let Yideng go, but asked him to come up with a detailed plan and make a decision after he looked at it.

Speaking of this, Huo Yuanzhen said again: "How much do you know about the Falling Flower God Sect?"

"I don't know much, but I've also heard some things, the abbot, the leader of the Fallen Flower God Sect, is actually a woman. ”

"This is natural, otherwise how could Ma Daoyuan make her a virgin. ”

Yideng realized that he had said a nonsense, and smiled awkwardly: "The leader of the Falling Flower God Sect is not only a woman, but also most of the sect members are women, they think that all flowers have life, and they often refer to themselves as flowers, how can this kind of woman's thing be used to educate the people, so I said that Ma Daoyuan is perverse, and sooner or later he will reap the consequences." ”

It was the first time Huo Yuanzhen had heard about the Falling Flower God Sect, and he didn't want to ask what kind of beliefs people had, he wanted to know who the leader of the Falling Flower God Sect was.

But when he asked this question, Yideng didn't give him an answer, just hesitated for a long time before saying: "I really haven't heard of this, it's just a rumor that the Falling Flower Sect Master's martial arts are extremely high and he is very domineering, but he won't make a move easily." ”

Speaking of this, Huo Yuanzhen said: "If our Shaolin ascetics go to the Western Regions, I'm afraid what we really need to pay attention to is not Ma Daoyuan's army, but this Falling Flower God Sect." ”

Yideng said confidently: "It doesn't matter, the junior brother has reached the peak of the late congenital stage now, and the six-vein divine sword has also been practiced, as long as she is a person in the rivers and lakes, then I am not afraid of her, she dares to come to me for trouble, and I have to ask my six-vein divine sword if I agree." ”

Huo Yuanzhen didn't make a sound, it was really a good idea to organize a team of dervishes to go to the Western Regions.

It's just that Huo Yuanzhen is still not at ease, maybe it will be better to go in person.

But with this plan, it can't be implemented immediately, because tomorrow is the New Year, and there will be a lottery, and then the lottery in December, and the lottery for the Spring Festival will come, and you must pass this period first.
