Chapter 173: Shaolin
The Venerable Master of Wutai Mountain arrived on June 14, and Shaolin thought that this merchant was still the same as the rest of his fellow martial artists, who came to watch Xiao Feng, but he did not expect that on the 15th of June, the Venerable Master Shenyin was the first to attack.
On the 15th of June, I suddenly heard the bell ringing loudly, continuously, which was a signal to convene the monks of the whole monastery. Except for the birthday of the Buddha and the birthday of Patriarch Bodhidharma every year, the temple has rarely gathered all the monks. When Zhang Wei turned around, he saw that more than 200 people had gathered in the hall, and the rest of the monks kept coming in. In a moment, more than 1,000 monks of the whole temple have gathered in the hall, and each branch is lined up, although the number of people is large, but it is silent. I only heard the bell ring three times, and all the monks announced the Buddha's name: "Nan no Shakya Buddha!" Abbot Xuanci and the three senior monks of the Xuanzi generation, accompanied by seven monks, walked out of the apse slowly. The monks in the hall bowed down together, and Xuan Ci and the seven monks first paid homage to the Buddha statue in the hall, and then sat down as the host. Seeing that the seven monks are not young, the color of the clothes is different from the Shaolin Temple, it is a guest monk from other temples, one of the monks has a high nose and blue eyes, the hair is curly, the body is very tall, it is a Hu monk, sitting in the first place is about seventy years old, the body is short, the eyes are bright, and the time of looking forward to it is very majestic.
Xuan Ci said loudly to the monks of Shaolin Temple: "This is the abbot of Qingliang Temple in Wutai Mountain, everyone has seen it." When the monks heard this, their hearts were all in shock. Most of the monks know that the people on the sacred mountain are extremely famous in the martial arts, and Master Xuanci is called "descending the dragon" and "Fuhu" two arhats, in terms of martial arts, it is said that the people on the sacred mountain are still above the abbot of Xuanci. It's just that the scale of Qingliang Temple is smaller, and its status in the martial arts is far less than that of Shaolin, but its reputation is not as good as Xuanci, and they all think: "I heard that the people on the sacred mountain think very highly of themselves, and they once said that the monks asked about the secular affairs in the martial arts, and they inevitably fell behind, and they have never been willing to deal with this temple. Then they all bowed down and saluted to the people on the sacred mountain. Xuan Ci stretched out his hand to the other six monks, introduced them one by one, and said: "This is the master of Guanxin of Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng Prefecture, this is the Daoqing master of Jiangnan Pudu Temple, this is the master of Juexian of Lushan Donglin Temple, this is the master of Rongzhi of Chang'an Jingying Temple, this is the master of Shenyin of Qingliang Temple of Wutai Mountain, and the junior disciple of the Shenshang Mountain people. "The four monks such as the master of Guanxin are all from the famous mountain and ancient temple, but the Great Xiangguo Temple, Pudu Temple, etc. have always emphasized Buddhism and light martial arts, although these four monks are very famous in the martial arts, but their position in the temple is not high. The monks of Shaolin Temple bowed and saluted, and the master of Guanxin stood up to return the salute. Abbot Xuanci stretched out his hand to the monk and said, "This master is from my Buddha Tianzhu Kingdom, and his legal name is Zheluo Xing. And all the monks bowed.
Next, it was Zheluo Xing who began to challenge Shaolin, accusing Shaolin of imprisoning his junior brother Polo Xing for no reason, talking about talking about cannons, Shaolin has never been weaker than others, and the first Xuan Lin of the Discipline Academy stood up and began to talk about the crime of Polo Xing - secretly sneaking into the Shaolin Hidden Scripture Pavilion and stealing Shaolin martial arts, the people on the sacred mountain will naturally not admit it, and neither of the two parties can convince anyone, so they can only see the true chapter. The two sides left the Daxiong Treasure Palace, and were preparing to compete outside the Daxiong Treasure Hall to decide whether Polo Star would stay or stay, at this point in time, due to the boring and boring of the Shaolin bell just now, the martial arts people and others who stayed near Shaolin were attracted, and when they saw so many people, the abbot Xuanci had to come out to explain the reason. As I said earlier, the Central Plains martial arts are very xenophobic, as soon as I heard that I went, a Tianzhu monk of yours dared to go to my Central Plains' largest temple - Shaolin to steal martial arts, cut him, we haven't stolen it yet, so let you guys steal it first? Of course, as the accompanying personnel, the Master of the Sacred Mountain, the Master of Guanxin and others were also baptized by the saliva of a vote of martial arts people, the people of the Sacred Mountain, the Master of the Meditation and others felt so wronged, we just came to attack the prestige of Shaolin, what is the reason for you to spray us? They really don't dare to do it, and when you do it, you can't tell it clearly, so you can only let your fellow martial artists spray. A few people at the beginning of the Shaolin Temple Xuanzi looked at it, not bad, the power of the masses is great, let your six old boys make it bad, this stealing chickens is not a loss of rice, see if you are still convinced. As for Zheluoxing, the atmosphere was not right, there was no helper, his strength was seriously suppressed, and he was cleaned up by Xuanci, and the first few people in Shaolin Temple showed a smile of relief, and then they couldn't laugh.
I saw a young man escorting a woman in her forties with a knife wound on her face walked in, and there were several waves of people around, among which yesterday's people from the government, the five elders of Taoism, and the scholars were all behind him. The chaotic sound sounded from all around, the reputation of "Nan Murong" has been spreading on the rivers and lakes for a while, everyone basically only heard its voice, but did not see its people, and now they finally see the living.
"Lord Murong is polite, I don't know what Lord Murong is doing when he comes to my Shaolin Temple?" Abbot Xuanci replied, now that Shaolin is starting with him, he can only appear, he feels bad when he sees the woman Murong Fu is holding, this is not his old concubine--- Ye Erniang! Why was Ye Erniang caught by Murong Fu, what did Murong Fu do when he escorted Ye Erniang to Shaolin?
"I've seen Abbot Xuanci, Murong Fu, as a member of the martial arts, came to Shaolin today and didn't know anything, so I came here to ask Abbot Xuanci for advice." Murong Fu shook his sleeves and said.
"Lord Murong Shi, please speak?"
"Shaolin is also the leader of martial arts, I don't know if the abbot of Shaolin violates the precepts, will Shaolin cover up?" Murong Fu stared at Xuan Ci with his eyes and said, Xuan Ci knew that it was not good as soon as he heard it, it seemed that the matter between himself and Ye Erniang had been known to him, and now there were two ways in front of him, one was to die and not admit it, and the other was to admit it. Let's talk about death and don't admit it, little Murong Fu can't do anything to himself, he may be angry with Ye Erniang, he has already borne Ye Erniang too much, and he really doesn't want her to be hurt again, and if he chooses to admit it, at most, his prestige will be hurt a little, so at most he will no longer be the abbot, at least he can protect Ye Erniang, so it is more cost-effective to admit it. It's no wonder that Xuan Ci has this idea, the most important thing is that he didn't see Zhang Wei's arrangement clearly.
"Amitabha! If a monk breaks the vows, he should naturally be punished, while the abbot who violates the vows will be punished twice. Xuan Ci said after hitting a Buddha number.
"Abbot Xuanci, this Ye Erniang is your old friend, I don't think you will deny it, right?" Murong Fu pointed at Ye Erniang and said to Xuan Ci, Ye Erniang cried vigorously; You want to ask, why did Ye Erniang honestly be detained by Murong Fu and not resist? This is still Zhang Wei's business, after Zhang Wei came to Songshan at the beginning of the month, after connecting with Murong Fu, he found a time to find Ye Erniang near Songshan, and found an opportunity to take her to look at her son Xuzhu, Xuzhu has Ye Erniang's hot ring scar on his back, naturally Ye Erniang will not mistake her son, and Zhang Wei began to threaten her, she, Xuan Ci and Xuzhu can only live one side, either she admits all the crimes, Zhang Wei does not trouble Xuzhu, or she does not admit it, Xuzhu dies, Ye Erniang can only choose her and Xuanci to die, let Xuzhu live; That's why Murong Fu held her, and she honestly didn't resist.
"Amitabha! The cause of the day before yesterday, the result of today, the evil fruit that the old man planted when he was young, really came back today, yes, the old man has committed adultery. Xuan Ci admitted that his plan was to admit the crime and change Ye Erniang's survival, and the martial arts people on the scene immediately fried the pot when they heard it, this news was too violent, and the dignified Shaolin head actually broke the precept many years ago.
"Amitabha! The monk violates the precepts, the rod is punished forty, the abbot is punished twice as much, the rod is punished eighty, where is the law enforcement disciple, immediately executed, Xuan Lin junior brother, Xuan Ci can no longer serve as the head of Shaolin, now is not the period, temporarily by your abbot Shaolin all affairs. Xuan Ci immediately arranged, quickly cut the messy horse, if you don't deal with it immediately, who knows what problems will be found later, the first seat of the Discipline Academy, Xuan Silence, heard it, this is currently the best way to deal with it, and after performing a Buddha ceremony, he began to call the law enforcement disciples to take action.
"Slow, slow." Murong Fu hurriedly said.
"I don't know what else Lord Murong has to say?" The first seat of the Discipline Academy, Xuan Lone, was now extremely unhappy with Murong.
"Xuanci Abbot's matter is not in a hurry, this Ye Erniang, known as doing all kinds of evil, takes pleasure in killing young children, one day at a time, so many years, count the children who died in her hands, there are not tens of thousands, there are thousands, the Buddha said that everyone is equal, so many children who have died, how can Shaolin explain? Ye Erniang's knife technique is obviously your Shaolin's 'Breaking Ring Knife Technique', and I have reason to believe that seeing Ye Erniang bending the law on the rivers and lakes so much is the protection of your Shaolin abbot. Murong Fu shouted loudly, it's not that he doesn't know, he is shocked, he usually says that Ye Erniang is a wicked person, as for how to be evil, everyone just heard that she killed young children for fun, and now let Murong Fu calculate, the group of heroes is even more angry. At this time, the farmers and others who had been waiting outside the Shaolin Temple for a long time, under the arrangement of Bao Wei and others, ran in, crying and kneeling in front of Yuzhou Mu and others, please save the abbot justice.
It was originally a battle for martial arts, since a large group of farmers ran in, the nature has completely changed, and now it has become a catastrophic accident, Yuzhou Mu, Kaifeng Yin and others are also angry eyes full of gold stars, you know, the ancient birth environment was bad, the national policy is to encourage everyone to have more children, you Shaolin is good, there are murderers who kill young children do not deal with it, but also to cover up, what do you want to do? Do you have any opinions? Or do you want to rebel? The death of thousands of children, as long as Yushi goes back tomorrow to make up a chapter, can we still be an official? Even if there is no imperial history, the group of scholars next to him will vigorously publicize it, and it will be ironclad, and they can't ignore it! When the abbot Xuanci heard Murong Fu's accusation, his eyes were also starry, this little rabbit cub of the Murong family is too ruthless, this is a planned set!
"Come on, take down Xuan Ci and Ye Erniang, and put them on death row to wait for the court's notice. Also, inform the Privy Council, send troops to seal Shaolin, and wait for the will of the Hou Guan's family. Yuzhou Mu shouted at a few generals behind him, don't look at the few soldiers brought by others, and the force value is not high, Shaolin really doesn't dare to object, this is the world of the Great Song Dynasty after all, if you dare to resist, it will really become a rebellion, and it will be impossible to say it in the future.
"Wait!" A loud shout sounded outside the courtyard, and I saw a big man walking in, and Qiao Feng arrived.
