53. Maple Leaf Temple

Maple Leaf Temple is a large temple with a long history and profound heritage, and it is not weaker than Shaolin, which is now known as Wulin Taishan Beidou, and even surpasses Shaolin a few points above the martial arts attainments.

The specific time of the temple can not be examined, it is said to be traced to the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when Emperor Wu of Nanliang believed in Buddhism, for a time the large and small temples in the country were erected one after another, there were poems: four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty, how many buildings are in the smoke and rain, it is said that the grand occasion of Buddhism in Nanliang territory. And among them is a large temple, called Maple Leaf.

Subsequently, after the change of dynasties, the barbarian invasion, the Central Plains region was in dire straits, tens of millions of people were slaughtered by foreign races, and the Maple Leaf Temple also withered from prosperity to decline, and almost lost the temple.

It happened that there was a monk in the temple who was martial arts and created the King Kong incorruptible magic skill, and with this magic skill to protect himself, this continued the incense of the Maple Leaf Temple.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, in order to avoid the disaster of war, the Maple Leaf Temple moved to the temple and left, abandoned the thousand-year-old temple, came to the edge of Luoyang City, after more than 100 years, gradually restored the glory of the past.

Unlike other temples dedicated to practicing Buddhism, the Maple Leaf Temple advocates martial arts, and even takes one as ten, there have been such rumors in the rivers and lakes, when you meet a monk when you walk, you must ask whether the other party is from the Maple Leaf Temple, if it is other temples or have the power to fight, if you meet the monk of the Maple Leaf Temple, even if it is a disciple of the outer door, it is good to slip away as soon as possible.

Li Guxing really couldn't imagine who could seriously injure the Yongjue Master of Maple Leaf Temple, if it wasn't one of the top three, who could have such strength?

Thinking back to the past, thinking of Master Yongjue's martial arts, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

He once went to the Maple Leaf Temple with his father Li Sigu to get people, and he didn't agree with the Yongjue Master of the Maple Leaf Temple.

At that time, Li Guxing's martial arts had already attained, and even a first-class master in the rivers and lakes did not dare to say that he could defeat him with a single move.

But Li Guxing encountered Master Yongjue, who was known as the first person in the Maple Leaf Temple in a hundred years, and as soon as his swordsmanship came out, he was broken by his Vajra incorruptible magic skill before he could reach Master Yongjue. If it weren't for Lin Feng's self-murder, Li Guxing might have fallen into this huge temple.

A group of four people embarked on the journey again, Li Guxing brought masks to a few people to avoid trouble, chose three fast horses, rushed away, and came to the foot of the temple in less than half a day, and was surprised from afar.

In the early spring, the weather has just warmed up, and there is still a lot of cold in the air, but the foot of the Maple Leaf Temple is unusually warm, and it is more warm than the spring breeze. The red leaves of the mountains are all over the mountain, the sunset shines, the artistic conception is far away, I am afraid that it is not much worse than a fairyland on earth.

Li Guxing and the others were amazed, attracted by this scenery, and stayed in place for a while.

It happened that an old farmer passed by with a bucket of water, and said with a smile: "It looks like a few of them are from other places." ”

Li Guxing said: "Yes, I never thought that the Maple Leaf Temple was so magical. ”

When the old farmer heard this, there was a look of reverence on his face, and he folded his hands and made a Buddhist salute to the Maple Leaf Temple.

"It's because of those masters who have advanced Buddhism that they have this view, this temple is spiritual, and there is nothing wrong with seeking officials and children. If there are poor people who can't afford to live, they should be done during festivals, weddings and funerals, and the monks in the temple will pay for them. We all feel that the monks in this temple are not the Buddha himself. ”

Li Guxing smiled indifferently, his heart was reverent, his eyes slanted at Zhao Wuqian, and he laughed: "Look at other people's sects, and then look at you, all of them are like landlords." ”

Zhao Wuqian said angrily: "Hate the rich, bite me." ”

One sentence stunned Li Guxing, which caused Xiao Han and Luo Dagou next to him to laugh for a while.

Zhao Wuqian was proud for a while, turned his head and whispered in Luo Dagou's ear: "The monks in the Maple Leaf Temple are both upright and strong, they can't stand your deception, and if we don't get it, we will have to fall into it, you have to weigh it carefully." ”

What he said clearly was to let Luo Dagou be careful, don't think about hurting Li Guxing, so as not to get burned.

Luo Dagou naturally knew that although he did not give up the idea of killing Li Guxing, he was not in a hurry, it was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and he would not do it if he was not completely sure that he would kill Li Guxing alone.

But he is not an easily threatened master, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he put his small hand on Zhao Wuqian's shoulder through the horse, and asked in a low voice: "Little miscellaneous hair, do you still have a stomachache?" ”

Zhao Wuqian's face changed suddenly, goosebumps all over his body, he took laxatives today, was robbed of toilet paper yesterday, and was woken up by firecrackers when he slept the day before yesterday...... Looking back on these three months, it seems that his unlucky days have not stopped since the day Luo Dagou was able to get out of bed, where can he not be afraid of this little devil.

He begged for mercy slightly: "Little Ancestor, I'm afraid of you?" We have no grievances in the past, no hatred in the near future, I still healed your whip wounds, you don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, let me stop it. ”

Luo Dagou didn't react, but Xiao Han couldn't "giggle" and looked at Zhao Wuqian with a bitter face, "Why don't I help Luo Dagou next time?" ”

Zhao Wuqian frowned and asked Li Guxing for help, "Lao Li, you say two sentences about them." ”

Li Guxing said: "I can't control Xiao Meiren and the big dog, I just ask God to bless me now, so as not to write the word bad luck on my face like you." ”

Zhao has no money and is helpless, ordinary people are the boss who is rich, but he, the rich master, seems to owe money, more like a small servant for a few people, and has no status at all.

The old farmer looked at the cheerful appearance of several people and was in a good mood, put down the flat burden, sat in the middle of the flat burden, took out a cigarette pouch pot from the rough sweatshirt, knocked it on the sole of his shoe twice, rubbed the fire and lit the dry tobacco, inhaled sharply and spit out a smoke ring, and the carefree appearance lived like an old fairy who practiced in the mortal world.

Li Guxing jumped off the horse, saluted respectfully, and asked, "Old man, what has happened on this mountain in recent days?" ”

The old farmer spat out another puff of dry tobacco, the smell of smoke is strong, slightly choking, but it contains the aroma of hay, and people can't help but smell more.

When the tobacco burned out, the old man knocked on the sole of his shoe again and said, "What can we do here?" That is, the spring flowers are blooming, many people have begun to sow seeds, and then there are more people who go up the mountain to worship incense, and it is nothing, it is like this every year. ”

Li Guxing smiled, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, he was still worried that something had happened to Master Yongjue, but he heard that the farmer said that the news brought by Hai Dongqing was false.

Li Guxing thanked the old farmer and wanted to give him some money, but who knew that the old farmer glanced at him, picked up the eye bag and hit the pot, and scolded while beating: "Who are you?" Your stinky money is not rare, get out! Get out of here!! ”

Li Guxing didn't expect it, he jumped on the horse with a smile, and fled in a hurry with a few people, and the old farmer chased after him for a long time, until Li Guxing ran away and was still scolding, "Don't let me see you again!" ”

A few people fled in embarrassment, but they were happy in their hearts, especially Zhao Wuqian, thinking that when he asked the fisherman for the news and sold the corpse, it didn't make those seemingly honest fishermen rip off the bamboo, and even the ring of the head of the door was also put in, compared with this farmer, how dirty those fishermen were, I couldn't help but feel happy.

Li Guxing also feels this way, maybe those fishermen in Luoyang City, followed the Fuwei Dart Bureau naturally developed the habit of not being profitable and not early, and this old farmer is under the Maple Leaf Temple, and the mountains are all highly respected monks, who have no quarrel with the world, and they have become so pure and good under the influence of their ears and eyes.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh, "Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black." ”

Zhao Wuqian said: "Yes, I walked the rivers and lakes with you, and my temperament has become bad, as the so-called one who is close to Zhu is red and close to ink is black." ”

He didn't think about how to defeat Li Guxing in his mouth all the time, even if he won more and lost less, he couldn't crush him, and he was always unhappy in his heart.

Li Guxing glanced at Luo Dagou, and said with a sneer: "If you talk more, be careful that you can't get up tomorrow morning, the big dog will still be angry with you, if you didn't deliberately keep him in the Fuwei Dart Game, how could he suffer so much." ”

After Li Guxing mentioned it, Zhao Wuqian came back to his senses, no wonder it was difficult for himself everywhere since Luo Dagou recovered from his injury, the crux of all this was here.

He asked in a low voice, "Lao Li, did you tell him?" ”

Li Guxing said: "What do I say, he wants to kill me, and one more thing and one less thing will not change anything?" ”

"And how did he know?"

Li Guxing said: "Does he look like a fool? Guessed and guessed. ”

Zhao Wuqian was speechless for a while, the sins of heaven are forgivable, and the sins of oneself cannot be lived, he is not angry at all now, all of this is his own fault, and it is really no wonder that others.

He turned his head and saluted Luo Dagou respectfully, and said apologetically: "Big dog, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have thrown you off the dart game in the first place." ”

Luo Dagou smiled, his eyes were full of cunning, and he didn't know what bad ideas he was thinking. Stared at Zhao Wuqian for a long time before replying, "Do you know it's wrong?" ”

Zhao Wuqian said sincerely: "Wrong, wrong, don't dare anymore, I'd rather lose myself than leave you in the future." ”

Luo Dagou clapped his hands and pretended to be an adult, "Okay, I'll spare you this time, but next time, I'll poison your food and poison your calf's nose!" ”

At this time, it was already late, and several people came to the night market with laughter and laughter, although this place is not a prosperous place, but this night market is rarely lively. The two emperors of Renzong and Xuanzong loved the people like sons and the people began to cultivate, and the people recuperated and recuperated, which is why there is such a grand scene.

Xiao Han looked at the colorful lanterns hanging in the distance and the sound of selling on the bustling streets, and had the intention to join in the fun, and said, "Why don't we go and have a look?" ”

From the farmer's mouth, I learned that there were no strong people to go to the Maple Leaf Temple to find a field, but I was not in a hurry at this time, there was nothing to do left and right, and it was too late to play.

Li Guxing said: "Let's go shopping first, and then find an inn to stay overnight, and then go up the mountain early tomorrow morning." ”

Xiao Han was overjoyed in his heart, and rushed out with Luo Dagou, "I'll wait for you in front!" ”

Zhao Wuqian said: "Xiao Han's temperament has changed a lot. ”

Li Guxing said: "I have been in the tomb for a long time, and my temperament is also stuffy. It's a girl, and at an innocent age, it's not like she's been lifeless. ”

Zhao Wuqian looked at the top of the mountain and thought for a while, "You don't have any ideas in your heart?" ”

Li Guxing smiled, "What do you say?" ”

Zhao Wuqian said: "The Maple Leaf Temple can regard you as a great enemy, not to mention your identity as being chased and killed by the rivers and lakes temples, black and white, just because you forced Lin Feng to commit suicide, the Maple Leaf Temple will never die with you." ”

Li Guxing took out a mask from his bag and said with a sly smile: "So I prepared this." ”

"Masks, they're not a rare object."

Li Guxing said: "This is a rare object, you have to lend me your sword." ”

"Sabre?!" Zhao Wuqian looked at his waist and immediately understood, "Li Guxing, your uncle!" ”

"False and real, true and false, I know you well, you have never come down the mountain, that group of monks is said to be very wooden, and this is guaranteed to be foolproof."

Zhao Wuqian had a big headache, "My reputation in this life has ruined you, a thief." He scolded as he walked, and unconsciously caught up with Xiao Han and Luo Dagou.
