Chapter Seventy-Four: Shaolin Temple

The three fast horses galloped on the official road under Songshan Mountain and headed southwest.

"Master, why do we want to go to Shaolin Temple?" Qu Feiyan asked.

Zheng Xie said: "The world's martial arts out of Shaolin, the thousand-year-old temple is famous all over the world, and it is a big pity to come to Songshan and not go to Shaolin Temple, just like going to the capital and not going to the Great Wall." What's more, there is no ticket in this era. ”

“……?” The two daughters were inexplicable.

The distance between Shaolin Temple and Songshan is very close, only twenty or thirty miles, and the three of them quickly rushed to the foot of Shaolin Mountain.

Zheng Xie took the second daughter like ordinary tourists, swaying up to the Shaolin Temple, the mood was not at peace, the mountains and forests seemed to have a faint Zen sound, this kind of tranquility, in the tourists full of the street in the future is absolutely not enjoyed. Walking to the mountain gate of Shaolin Temple, the three of them were stopped by the monk who knew the guest.

"The three donors, we are in the land of Buddhism, and we do not accept female dependents." A little novice dressed in gray said.

"Don't let in the tickets?" Zheng Xie asked.

“?” Little novices.

Qu Feiyan's apricot eyes widened, and he said angrily: "There is no place in the world where we can't go, and I will burn down your broken temple with a fire." ”

"Amitabha, the rules of our temple are like this, please forgive the female benefactor." The faces of several monks sank, and the eyes of the three of them changed, but they still endured their surnames and said so.

Zheng Xie said with a smile: "Little master, don't care, the insiders like to joke, and they won't really set fire to the temple." After a pause, he said, "Please ask the little master to report to Master Fang Zheng, the presiding officer of your temple, and say that the deputy sect leader of the Moon God Sect will visit with his family." ”

The little novice's face changed greatly, and he ran in happily.

There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the temple, but after a while, the bell rang in the Zen courtyard, dozens of Shaolin stick monks lined up to greet them, and an old monk in a robe walked steadily, and beside him, he was followed by a big monk wearing a gray monk's robe.

Fang Zheng shook his head and said, "Amitabha, Deputy Sect Leader Zheng is visiting, and the old man has missed the welcome, and he is guilty of sin." ”

What happened on the Black Wood Cliff, although it was not specifically publicized, it was impossible to hide it from the top forces of the martial arts. Dongfang was undefeated and was driven down the Black Wood Cliff, let me retake charge of the Moon God Sect, and Zheng Xie became the deputy head of the God Sect.

Zheng Xie hugged his fists and said: "In Xia Zheng Xie, I have seen Master Fang Zheng and Master Fang Sheng. ”

Fang Zheng calmly and calmly, and said unhurriedly: "Deputy Sect Leader Zheng doesn't need to be polite, I don't know why Your Excellency is here?" ”

Zheng Xie said: "Shaolin Treasure Temple has been famous through the ages, I yearn for it, follow the insiders passing through here, the interest of the tour has increased greatly, and I came to visit." ”

Fang Zheng said: "I see, our temple can be praised by Deputy Sect Leader Zheng, it is really brilliant. Let the old man accompany him and take the three donors on a tour. ”

Zheng Xie said: "Then trouble Master Fang Zheng." ”

Fang Zheng made a Buddha salute, raised his hand and said, "Amitabha, three donors, please." ”

Zheng Xie did not give in and walked into the temple.

Fang Zheng's cultivation is very high, and he took Zheng Xie and the three of them to visit the temples and halls, tepidly telling him the origin of each temple, occasionally mixed with a few Buddhist scriptures, which is completely enough to win the championship award of the Tour Guide Cup.

A few people wandered to the vicinity of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and Zheng Xie said: "I heard that the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin are the best in the world, and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is the first martial arts treasure house of Buddhism, I don't know if I can go in and visit." ”

Fang Zheng said with a smile: "The Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is an important place in our temple, and in addition to the old man, only Uncle Shi is qualified to enter. Deputy Sect Leader Zheng wanted to go, but the old man was afraid that he couldn't do anything. ”

Zheng Xie said: "It's a pity, just forget it if you can't go in." He added: "I don't know which master is cleaning and tidying up the Scripture Pavilion?" ”

As he spoke, the door of the Scripture Pavilion opened, and an old monk dressed in gray with white eyebrows and beard walked out of the pavilion with a broom.

Fang Zheng said: "This is the master in the mouth of Deputy Sect Master Zheng, this person has no name, no surname, no law name, and has been in charge of cleaning and sorting out the Scripture Pavilion for decades. ”

Zheng Xie was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hello master. ”

The old monk remained silent, as if he had not heard it, waved a broom, and swept the Buddhist courtyard one by one.

Zheng Xie greeted again: "Hello master." ”

Fang Zheng was very surprised in his heart, and he didn't know why Zheng Xie attached so much importance to an old monk who swept the floor, and said: "Deputy Sect Master Zheng, forgive me, this person was born deaf and dumb, and he was illiterate, so he was not deliberately neglected. As he spoke, Fang Zheng stepped forward and patted the old monk on the shoulder and made a few gestures.

The old monk came back to his senses, waved at Fang Zheng and Zheng Xie, and then dragged the broom away.

“…………”

Don't be so cheating, if you don't know martial arts, don't take a broom and pretend to be big!

Zheng Xie was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, and sighed lamentingly: "Forget it, don't go shopping, let's take a break." ”

"Amitabha."

Fang Zheng led the three of them to the pavilion halfway up the mountain to rest, and personally poured tea for the three of them.

"Good tea...... By the way, why didn't I see the head of Chongxu Dao. Zheng Xie picked up the teacup and gently stirred the tea leaves.

Fang Zhengqi said: "Chongxu Daoist is naturally in Wudang Mountain, why does Deputy Sect Leader Zheng have this question." ”

Zheng Xie smiled and said, "I see, I thought it was ...... Hehe. ”

Chong Xuan and Fang Zheng are a pair of good friends, and they have never been separated from the stone, and they are not separated from the scale. As long as there is a square evidence, there must be the figure of the head of the void road. This old Taoist stayed in Shaolin Temple longer than in Wudang Mountain, and at first glance, it will make people feel that he is not a Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain, but a monk in Shaolin Temple.

Fang Zheng did not get to the bottom of it and concentrated on making tea.

A few people were drinking tea here leisurely for a long time, and Qu Feiyan's heart was already like a cat scratching, and he couldn't help but ask, "Master, what are you thinking?" ”

Zheng Xie replied with a smile: "Of course, it's a tour of the mountains and rivers, what else can you do?" ”

Qu Feiyan said angrily: "I don't believe it! Shui Lingling's eyes rolled twice, and he said, "Master, are you playing the idea of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion?" ”

Zheng Xie asked rhetorically, "What is there in the Scripture Pavilion that I am plotting?" ”

Qu Feiyan said coquettishly: "Then what do you want to do, tell Feifei." ”

Zheng Xie said: "I'm waiting for someone, and you'll know when he comes." ”

"Wait for someone." Qu Feiyan thought for a moment and said, "Dongfang is undefeated!" Sir, you're waiting for him. ”

Zheng Xie said: "Oh? Why guess it's him. ”

Qu Feiyan said: "Doctor Ping Yi said that if you want Yang Lianting to recover, you need the Zixia Secret Guide or the Yijin Sutra. Dongfang was undefeated and went to Huahua to find the secret of Zixia without success, and the next step must be to come to Shaolin Temple to seek the Yijin Sutra. ”

"Hehe, I guessed right." Zheng Xie said.

After figuring it out, Qu Feiyan felt at ease in his heart.

In contrast, Fang Zheng's Zen skills are much more profound, and after boiling tea, he sits upright as before, holding Buddhist beads, plucking them one by one, and silently reciting Buddhist scriptures in his mouth.

After a cup of tea, Zheng Xie smiled and asked, "What sutra is Master Fang Zheng reciting?" ”

Fang Zheng spoke: "Myoho-renge-kyo. ”

Zheng Xie said: "Why doesn't the master read aloud, so that we can appreciate one or two." ”

Fang Zheng said: "The scriptures are in the heart, what is the difference between reading and not reading. Buddhist scriptures teach people to know good and evil, clear cause and effect, Deputy Sect Leader Zheng has a Zen heart and wisdom roots, even if you don't need to use the old man's point, but also from the mirror heart clear. It is said that the Moon God Sect has Deputy Sect Master Zheng, which is really a great luck for martial arts. ”

"The abbot thinks too highly of me, I'm just a tourist in Hongchen, just a living being." Zheng Xie is no longer a fledgling rookie, and he will not be so happy that he can't find the north after a few words of praise, what kind of hero, savior or the like, who loves to be whom.

As soon as Fang Zheng said "Amitabha", he heard a light voice sounding from far away from outside the mountain gate, the voice was not loud and high-pitched, but it came clearly, as if talking face-to-face.

"The East is undefeated and comes to worship the mountain!"

The sound instantly reverberated throughout the temple.

The Buddha beads that were plucked by a bead suddenly stopped, and Fang Zheng got up and said: "Your guests are coming, the old man should go to greet him in person, and the three donors will forgive me." ”

Zheng Xie said: "Master, please take care of yourself." ”

"Amitabha, the old man is gone." Announcing the Buddha's name, Fang Zheng walked quickly to the pavilion.

As soon as he didn't go far, he saw Master Fang Sheng coming in a hurry, and as soon as he encountered Fang Zheng, he immediately shouted: "Senior Brother Presiding, the Demon Sect's deputy sect leader has just been placed on the front foot, and the East is undefeated on the back foot, there must be a conspiracy in it, what should we do?" ”

"Everything has a way, and it should be viewed as such." Fang Zheng sang a Zen chant and said, "Senior brother don't need to panic, I have my own determination in this matter." You go over there to accompany the three donors, and I will go to greet the undefeated East. ”

Fang Sheng said: "Yes, senior brother presiding." ”

The warrior monks of the Luohan Hall had just dispersed, and they were recruited again, and one hundred and eight warrior monks formed an Arhat formation and went to the main hall with the evidence.

"Amitabha, the poor monk has seen the Eastern benefactor and the Yang benefactor."

Fang Zheng said: "The donor is coming, and Shaolin Temple is very honored. ”

In front of the Buddha hall, Dongfang Undefeated had already entered uninvited, and many disciples were afraid of his prestige, so they did not dare to approach, and surrounded him from afar, until the arrival of Fang Zheng, they were a little relieved.

Dongfang Undefeated regarded the monks as nothing, and was surrounded in the Arhat array, and he didn't care, and said to Fang Zheng: "Your Buddhists talk about saving people's lives, and you are better than the seventh-level floating slaughter, I sent the floating slaughter for you, but I don't know if you will accept the certificate." ”

Fang Zheng said: "Good and good, the oriental donor has the heart of the Buddha, and the old man should obey it." ”

Dongfang was undefeated and said: "This is the best, Brother Lian needs the Yi Jin Sutra to save his life, you can hand over the Yi Jin Sutra." ”

Fang Zheng looked at Yang Lianting for a moment, and said slowly: "Yi Jin Jing can only go to the trouble of Yang Shi's skin, and it cannot cure the disease of his heart. It is better for the two donors to stay in the temple, and the old man is willing to chant the Buddha for the Yang donor, so as to remove his heart disease. ”

Dongfang was undefeated and said: "This is not necessary, as long as you hand over the Yijin Sutra, you will already have complete merit." ”

Fang Zheng said: "Amitabha, the matter of the Eastern donor, the old man should have agreed. But the Yijin Sutra is a treasure of my Buddhism, and it cannot be easily shown. ”

Dongfang was undefeated and said: "So, you don't agree." ”

Fang Zheng changed his words and said: "If the Oriental donor is willing to stay in this temple, listen to the poor monk's lectures for ten years, and send the Yijin Sutra to the donor, it is not impossible." ”

Dongfang Undefeated laughed for a while, his eyes widened like electricity, and said: "The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, I don't know which is more important compared to the lives of hundreds of monks in Shaolin Temple and the Yijin Sutra?" ”
