Great Sumeru Mountain, Tianyin Temple.

Compared with a year ago when Uncle Zeng often led the crowd to attack, today's Tianyin Temple is still very lively, even better than the temple fair on the fifteenth day of the first month.

It's just that the people who came were not ordinary people, all of them were monks.

If there are many monks, it is inevitable that they will talk about the Tao and talk about the Fa, and where they rise, they will have to fight one or two, so it makes the monks of Tianyin Temple nervous, and a large number of disciples take turns to patrol, for fear that there will be some bloody incident.

Fa Shan stood at the door, greeting the monks of the various sects, he was the junior disciple of Fa Xiang, since Fa Xiang's death, among the disciples, he was the most outstanding in cultivation, and this kind of thing should naturally be brought forward by him.

"Senior Brother Fashan!"

At this time, a cry of surprise came from the sound of an urn, and I saw a tall and strong man, and in front of him, there was a short, thin and dark old man.

"Venerable Hercules!"

"It's from the Vajra Gate."

"They're coming so late?"

……

The monks talked a lot, and the person who came was the pair of master and apprentice of Venerable and Shishi.

King Kong Gate is a subsidiary force of Tianyin Temple, although it is not comparable to the three righteous path giants, but the strength of the door can not be underestimated, in the eyes of each small sect is definitely a giant, a single strong Venerable, the strength is not inferior to the monks of the Qing realm.

"Amitabha."

Fashan recited the Buddha's name in a low voice, then folded his hands, bowed his chin, and said to the two of them: "Uncle Strong, Senior Brother Shi, the disciple is polite." ”

"Fashan, why don't you see the Fa Xiang, you are here to welcome guests?" Venerable Hercules asked a little strangely.

As a subsidiary force of Tianyin Temple, he is very clear about the internal inheritance of Tianyin Temple, the older generation is of course headed by the four great monks, but the next generation is a well-deserved senior brother with the law as the next abbot.

Although Fashan's qualifications and deeds are good, they are still not as good as the Faxiang, not to mention the cultivation of human feelings.

Such an important moment of opening the mountain gate wide to welcome the monks of the world, it stands to reason that it should never be Fa Shan, but it is he who appears here, so Venerable Dali does not have doubts.

Fa Shan's face was a little gloomy, but he remembered Fa Xiang's death, he recited a Buddha name in a low voice, and said: "Senior Brother Fa Xiang is gone, Uncle Dali, please come in." ”

The law is dead!

Venerable Mighty was excited, and his pupils shrank slightly!

"Amitabha!"

He recited the Buddha name in a deep voice, and then said, "I'm sorry, but the old man was abrupt." ”

"It's okay, this time I invited Uncle Shi and everyone to come here for this matter." The law is good.

Qingyun's attack on Tianyin Temple can't be covered up at all, it has long been rumored and known to the world, but the specific reasons for it, the two giants are silent, and no one has the courage to ask.

Everyone knows that this Manjushri Festival was held for this purpose, but it also involves the death of heirs such as the Dharma Minister, and there is no doubt that the conflict between Qingyunmen and Tianyin Temple is far more intense than imagined.

The Venerable Hercules had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but his face did not show anything, and he and the stone walked in calmly.

The square in front of the Daxiong Hall of Tianyin Temple is already full of people.

Dozens of long tables are arranged in two rows, and those who can sit on them are all quite famous figures in the cultivation world, or leaders of one party's forces, or real people with advanced Taoism, as for the others, they can only stand.

Above the main seat, it was empty, but the Venerable Napu Hong had not yet arrived.

But no one dares to put their beaks, this is Tianyin Temple, in today's world, except for the Qingyunmen who is in the limelight, who dares to spread wild in front of them?

Besides, it was Qingyunmen, which was also folded in front of the other party a year ago.

Venerable Might's heart was heavy, and he was still thinking about the death of the Fa Xiang, this was by no means a trivial matter, no wonder Tianyin Temple wanted to summon the monks of the world to make such a big move.

It's just that if you want to deal with Qingyunmen, these monks can't play a role at all, but will drag them back half-heartedly.

Soon, the sun was rising overhead, and it was already noon.

Only three heavy bells were heard, and the originally noisy square was suddenly solemn.

The monks of Tianyin Temple held all kinds of spiritual fruits and wines and placed them on each long table, and then, a thin old monk wearing a big red robe slowly walked out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and walked towards the main seat.

Seeing the monk, the entire Tianyin Temple was boiling, and everyone shouted: "Master Puhong!" "Puhong Divine Monk!" ……

Even the monks who were sitting at the long table stood up one after another, looking admiring.

The three giants of the righteous path, since the immolation of the incense valley was all destroyed, only the Qingyunmen and Tianyin Temple are left.

It can be said that the monk in front of him, in the absence of Dao Xuan, is the person with the highest prestige on the righteous path.

"Amitabha!"

Venerable Puhong bowed to everyone, and his voice was not loud, but it sounded clearly in everyone's ears.

He smiled at the crowd: "Today is the birthday of Manjushri Bodhisattva, this temple holds a puja, and all the donors are here, which is really full of brilliance. ”

"A few fruits and vegetables, a pot of vegetarian wine, the old man wishes all the donors good health and all things safe."

All the monks sitting at the table raised their glasses and said, "Congratulations to Manjushri!" ”

Then they all drank it all.

At this time, I saw an old man with a bright head and a gray beard asking: "Master Puhong, your old man invited us to participate in this Manjushri Festival, I am really honored, but Tianyin Temple has not held such an event for hundreds of years, this time suddenly invited colleagues from all over the world, such a grand event, I don't know why?" ”

The old man was burly, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he was quite imposing, and it was Huang Tianren, the head of Zixia Sect who had dealt with Mo Li and others once.

Venerable Puhong looked bitter, sighed softly, and said, "Today I just want to invite all of you to a happy gathering, and I have no other intentions, so you still don't want to ask, and taste the specialties of Mount Meru." ”

Seeing his sad face, Venerable Mighty immediately shouted: "Senior Brother Puhong, do you have anything to do with Qingyunmen, why did you invite your fellow Taoists from all over the world today, but you didn't invite Qingyunmen?!" ”

There is no Qingyunmen!

The righteous monks couldn't help but panic in their hearts, and looked at the main seat, where there was no empty table or empty chair except for Pu Hong, but it was clearly not prepared for Qingyunmen!

With the status and momentum of Qingyunmen, how could Pu Hong miss it alone?!

Everyone thought of what they had heard recently, the rumor that Qingyunmen had fought with Tianyin Temple a year ago, and keenly felt that something was wrong.

"Qingyun and the Taoist friends are used to being at ease, and they don't like this kind of celebration, it's not that the old man didn't invite them."

Pu Hong looked a little unnatural and said: "Drink, use some fruit, don't talk about Qingyun today, just chat." ”

"Senior Brother Puhong, today the righteous heroes of the world are gathered here, if you have anything unhappy, if you have any grievances, you can tell it, you don't have to hide it."

Venerable Mighty shouted: "The old man heard that the nephews of the Dharma Master have passed away, and Qingyunmen came to attack the mountain a year ago, what is the reason for this?" ”

"If Qingyunmen really dares to bully Tianyin Temple, we will never stand idly by!"

He looked righteous and awe-inspiring, eager for justice and righteousness, but he bewitched many hot-blooded monks present.

However, the monks sitting at the table, all of them were old foxes, but they looked indifferent, they knew the affiliation between the Vajra Gate and the Tianyin Temple, and of course they would not be easily touched by three or two sentences.

"Senior Brother Strong, why are you forcing the old man?" Master Pu Hong couldn't bear it, "Today is a day of celebration, why bother talking about these unhappy things?" ”

This statement is undoubtedly acquiesced.

Venerable Force's eyes flashed, and he slapped the table and said, "The old man knows that it must be Qingyunmen who has done something, so he has no shame to come here today!" ”

"Senior Brother Puhong, just say, we righteous people, who are upright, what is there that cannot be said?!"

Many of the monks below shouted, "Exactly, let's just say it!" "Although Qingyunmen is strong, it can't be domineering!" "We are willing to witness for you, Master Puhong!"

……

Seeing the anger of the crowd, Master Puhong gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind.

He recited the Buddha's name in a low voice, and then said helplessly: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, be quiet......"

The audience was suddenly silent, and everyone looked at this old Buddhist monk.

I saw that Puhong Shangdao: "This matter, the old man was reluctant to mention it, after all, the Mo Shi of Qingyunmen had just killed the beast god a year ago, and he was seriously injured for this, and he made great contributions to my righteous path, but since you insist on knowing, then the old man will listen to you......"

Hearing that it was about Mo Li, everyone pricked up their ears and listened quietly.

After all, this young monk, who has only been in Qingyunmen for a few years, has really done something earth-shattering.

Several wars of righteousness and demons have turned the tide, dueled with beast gods, and it is said that they also attracted gods and demons to descend into the world, and they were all surrendered by him one by one.

Now, the legends about his Taoism and his deeds are already superb, extremely outrageous, and there are even rumors that he has ascended to the immortals!

This also has something to do with the fact that many monks go to Qingyunmen to ask for a meeting, but they can't get it.

Master Puhong said slowly: "A year ago, that earth-shattering battle was related to the safety of my fellow Daoists, so the old man sent Fa Xiang and Pukong to lead a dozen disciples to watch the battle, and also thought that they could do their part for Master Mo's nephew. Who knows......"

He paused for a moment and said: "A few days after the incident of fighting the Fa, Qingyunmen Zeng led a large number of Qingyun disciples to Tianyin Temple to come to the door to ask for guilt, and also sent the heads of Pukong Senior Disciples and Fa Xiang and other disciples to the door, along with the treasure of the temple's inheritance, Futu Golden Bowl, and said that it was my Tianyin Temple that attacked their Qingyunmen disciples, and they killed all of them in Puhong Senior Brother, and now they want to come to the door to seek justice." ”

"This is absolutely impossible, the Pukong Monk is a famous monk who moves the world, I don't know how much I have done to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and defend the righteous path, how can he be the villain who sneaks up on the passage behind him?!" The Venerable Mighty shook his head.

"There must be a misunderstanding in this matter!"

Huang Tianren also said: "On that day in my Zixiamen realm, the old man and many fellow Daoists saw with their own eyes that the disciples of the Demon Sect wanted to sneak attack the Qingyunmen and the Daoists, but it was the monks of Tianyin Temple who repelled them with the Futu Golden Bowl and saved them, how could the disciples of Tianyin Temple follow up on the Qingyunmen?" ”

"As long as they watch that day, all the fellow Taoists in Qingyun will die and die."

"Is what Huang Shizhu said true?" Master Puhong asked with a shocked face.

"No lie!"

Huang Tianren said: "Many colleagues were still on the scene that day, if you don't believe it, Master Puhong, you might as well ask them!" ”

"Exactly! What the Lord of the Yellow Gate said, we will see it with our own eyes! ”

"On that day, it was indeed the Pukong Divine Monk who used the Futu Golden Bowl to save Qingyun and the Taoists!"

"I can testify!"

……

Behind Huang Tianren, the clamor of many monks was to prove that what he said was not false at all.

The rest of the monks present couldn't help but murmur in their hearts when they heard this, could it be that Qingyunmen really took revenge?

Master Puhong nodded slightly, and said, "It turns out that there is still this matter, it seems that it is really a misunderstanding." ”

"At that time, the old man didn't know the reason, and he didn't dare to admit such a big thing easily, and the senior brother of Pukong and the Fa Xiang have always been good-natured, and they would never do such a thing, so the old man said that after finding out the reason, he would return to Qingyunmen, if the investigation is true, he will never shield any murderer."

"Unexpectedly, Zeng Shouza didn't listen to the explanation at all, but instead shot directly at Lao Wei, fortunately, the patriarch in the door was blessed, and the magic circle was lucky enough to block the offensive of Qingyun's fellow Daoists, which made them reluctant to retreat."

"It's just that Lao Qu and others have investigated this matter for a year, but they haven't found any clues, only to see that the Qingyun disciples are intact, and all the disciples of my Tianyin Temple have been beheaded, and the Qingyun Sect still has to hold on to this matter, but I am afraid that they will come to the door to find trouble."

"It happens that all of you are here today, please be a witness, if you know the inside story, please speak out, the old man will definitely be rewarded."

This abbot of Tianyin Temple, with a sad face and a frightened look, seemed to be extremely afraid that Qingyunmen would come to the door again to ask for trouble, but it made many monks present sympathize.

Whether the disciples of Tianyin Temple attacked or not, no one knows.

However, the result was that the disciples of Tianyin Temple were all wiped out, but the disciples of Qingyunmen came to the door unharmed and came to the door to look for trouble, and then Huang Tianren testified that the disciples of Tianyin Temple also extended a helping hand to Qingyunmen on that day, what do you make them think?

"There must be a misunderstanding in this matter!"

Huang Tianren frowned and said: "Qingyun fellow Daoists are also reasonable people, the old man doesn't think it's as good as this, all the fellow Daoists present, let's go through Qingyunmen together, ask this matter clearly, presumably Qingyunmen fellow Daoists will not embarrass us." ”

"This ...... Still don't have to. ”

Master Puhong sighed and said, "Now that the Qingyun Gate is in full swing, you don't have to offend them for my Tianyin Temple, forget it, forget it......"

"Not really!"

A clear cheer suddenly sounded in the square.

Then, a figure suddenly appeared in the center of the square, he looked around at everyone, and said in a cold voice: "Since Master Puhong wants to make it clear today, then let's make it clear!" ”

……
