Meng Xiuyuan had never thought about these things before this.

After going through two lives, from the time he got off Wudang Mountain and saw the first thief who robbed the people's daughter, he can be said to have killed countless people.

But they asked themselves, Meng Xiuyuan admitted that he had killed either a great traitor or an enemy who wanted to kill him, and he had never been wrong.

Therefore, even if his hands were full of blood, he had never suffered any trouble because of this.

After all, although he didn't dare to say that he was a great chivalrous man or a good person, in this world where the moral standard was generally low, Meng Xiuyuan thought that what he had done was already very good.

People are not saints, so there is no need to be too yourself.

But after a series of events in recent days, a series of contradictions broke out one after another, and Meng Xiuyuan realized that he had inadvertently indirectly hurt many innocent people.

Just when he was thinking about whether what he had done could be improved, the appearance of Xuzhu touched his heart.

Seeing that the sages were thinking together, Meng Xiuyuan thought for a moment, and then simply asked Xuzhu again:

"Little Master Xuzhu, I want to ask you.

What would you do if you met a man who had committed great treachery and was sure that he had harmed many innocent people? ”

He asked this question mostly out of curiosity, just to use it for reference, not to say how serious it was.

However, Xu Zhu was stunned by this sudden question, and stood for a long time before answering Meng Xiuyuan:

"The monks are merciful, and when the little monk encounters a bad person, he should be stopped from continuing to do evil.

It's just that the little monk's martial arts are not good, far inferior to Meng Gongzi, I'm afraid it's ......"

"Just like me in your martial arts." Meng Xiuyuan smiled helplessly when he heard this, and interrupted.

"Ah...... Such a good thing, the little monk never dared to think of it. ”

When Xu Zhu heard Meng Xiuyuan say this, he touched his head embarrassedly and smirked for a while before he spoke again:

"If I really have the martial arts of Meng Gongzi, I will subdue that wicked man.

And then...... Then I used the Dharma to transform him and make him change his ways.

When his faith is changed, let him do more good deeds and atone for the evil deeds he has committed in the past. ”

Obviously, this kind of fanciful thing Xuzhu has never thought about, so he stumbled and stumbled when answering, and what he said was the sincere words that appeared in his heart for the first time.

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said to Xuzhu:

"Where is it so easy to deal with the great traitors.

What if he just deceives you and makes you think that he has changed his ways, but when you don't notice it, he will harm others again?

In such a situation, don't you also have a part of the sins he committed later? ”

"This ......" Xuzhu was stunned by Meng Xiuyuan's question, and he was quite embarrassed in his heart. He glanced up at Meng Xiuyuan and hesitated:

"Then according to Gongzi's thoughts, should such sinners be killed?

But killing to stop killing and creating more injustices is not the way to do it after all......"

Speaking of this, a hot current surged in Xuzhudi's heart, and he couldn't help but say to Meng Xiu:

"Meng Gongzi, I thought about it.

When encountering such a great traitor, only with great wisdom and great perseverance can he be curbed.

As long as the Buddha sacrifices his life to feed tigers and cut meat to feed eagles, if you think about it for a long time, no matter what kind of wicked person you are, you can be influenced by the Dharma......"

Meng Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then laughed, shook his head, and did not answer with Xuzhu again.

Although this little master's realm is high, he really can't learn it.

……

In the next few days, Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu lived together in this small village.

At first, it wasn't for any special reason, but Xuzhu had just been swept out of the temple, and he didn't know where to settle down for a while, so Meng Xiuyuan took him in for the time being.

But then, things changed dramatically.

On this day, Xuzhu said goodbye to Meng Xiuyuan, saying that he had been bothering Meng Xiuyuan for a long time, and he was really embarrassed to stay any longer.

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he didn't keep it, but just took out the "Divine Foot Sutra", soaked it in water and handed it to Xuzhu to watch, wanting him to learn this kung fu as well.

After all, this little monk is simple-minded and kind-hearted, and he will encounter a lot of trouble when he wanders the rivers and lakes alone. If you don't have a good martial arts, it will be too dangerous.

There are not many good people in this world, and Meng Xiuyuan doesn't want to see these few people suffer disasters.

Meng Xiuyuan lied to Xuzhu, saying that this was just an ordinary guidance technique to strengthen his body, and he learned it because he was a little weak, so he didn't refuse.

No, after simply learning a few strange movements in the "Divine Foot Sutra", this Xuzhu was soon unconsciously attracted by the scriptures in this book:

"'Everything has no birth, and no cause destroys. In the midst of his birth and death, and the cause and cause of his thoughts'......

Meng Gongzi, what kind of Buddhist scripture are you, why have I never seen it?

Also, your picture doesn't seem to have anything to do with the scriptures in the book, right? ”

Meng Xiuyuan was surprised when he heard this, and asked towards Xuzhu:

"Little Master Xuzhu, you can actually understand the Sanskrit in this book?"

He knew that what Xuzhu was reciting just now should be the content of the Sanskrit version of the Yijin Sutra.

Xu Zhu couldn't help but be a little shy when he heard Meng Xiuyuan's words with amazement and praise, touched his head and nodded:

"When I was in the temple, I saw that some of the old scriptures in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion were written in Sanskrit and there was no Chinese translation, so I asked the lecturer of the Dharma Hall for advice.

It's just that I have reckless qualifications and always learn very slowly, which makes my uncle a little impatient.

Later, he simply asked me to learn how to read Sanskrit myself......"

Meng Xiuyuan became more and more surprised when he heard this, only to say that although this void bamboo looked a little stunned, it turned out that there was hidden wisdom in his heart.

Faced with the translation sent to the door, Meng Xiuyuan had no reason to let go. He asked Xuzhu to translate this Sanskrit version of the Yijin Sutra from beginning to end.

Although Xu Zhu was modest and said something like "the little monk is stupid, I'm afraid that the translation will be distorted", but in the end he still did not refuse.

So, the two lived in this small village for a while longer, studying the content of the "Yijin Sutra" together.

It was from this time that Meng Xiuyuan gradually discovered that he had underestimated this "Yijin Sutra" before.

The reason why the word "research" is used is because it is indeed not easy to interpret this "Yijin Sutra".

The reason for this is to talk about the origin of the Shaolin "Yijin Sutra".

According to legend, the ancestor of Bodhidharma died in front of the wall for nine years, leaving this scripture on the side of the stone wall. After his disciple Master Hui Ke obtained the scriptures, he studied hard for twenty years, but he found nothing.

It wasn't until later that Master Hui Ke met a young man who was proficient in martial arts on Chang'an Road and talked about it for three days and three nights that he comprehended all the secrets of martial arts in the "Yijin Sutra".

That young man was the great hero of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and later assisted Zuo Taizong to pacify the Turks, and Li Jing, who became the prime minister and was crowned the Duke of Wei.

At this time, the Chinese version of the "Yijin Sutra" circulated in the Shaolin Temple was from the hand of Li Jing. And the Sanskrit version of the "Yijin Sutra" that Meng Xiuyuan and Xuzhu held in their hands at this time is the original content left by Bodhidharma.

In this comparison, the original version of the "Yijin Sutra" in Meng Xiuyuan and Xuzhu's hands at this time is more obscure, but it is also more profound and subtle, without losing the original meaning.

Compared with the young Li Jing back then, Meng Xiuyuan, who has gone through two lives and learned countless magical skills, is not lagging behind in martial arts knowledge, and it stands to reason that it should not be a problem to interpret the true scriptures.

But this "Yijin Sutra" is strange, it is not just a martial arts, but a fusion of Buddhism and martial arts, implicating each other carefully, regardless of you and me.

This made Meng Xiuyuan, who knew nothing about Buddhism, very distressed, and the progress of his research was greatly affected.

Fortunately, Xuzhu is dedicated to the Buddha, and has read a lot of Buddhist scriptures in the temple in the past. Although the self-evaluation is "stupid, dull, and uncultivateable", it is perhaps because of the purity of the mind, so it is actually quite perceptive in Buddhism.

In the end, after a few days of joint discussions, both of them were quite fruitful.

Xuzhu is relatively straightforward, he was originally a Shaolin disciple, and he was born with a Buddha heart, so it is very suitable to learn this "Yijin Sutra".

Although his skills were still shallow for a while, the foundation of his peerless martial arts had already been laid.

In comparison, Meng Xiuyuan's original martial arts framework has been decided, and it is impossible to change it greatly because of this "Yijin Sutra".

But this does not mean that his harvest is less than that of Xuzhu.

Kung Fu practice to the end, there is a lot in common. Through the study of this supreme martial arts classic of Buddhism, Meng Xiuyuan discovered many wonderful ideas, which corroborated each other with what he had learned in the past.

One of the most important points is that Meng Xiuyuan's "Fitness Technique", which has not changed for a long time, finally took the opportunity to update the version at this time.

With the help of "Epiphany Time", Meng Xiuyuan integrated many of the contents of the "Yijin Sutra" involving body refining into his "Body Strengthening Technique", which greatly increased its effectiveness and made it stronger than one.

Although compared to martial arts such as "Golden Bell Jar" and "Iron Cloth Shirt", "Yijin Jing" is not a practice that focuses on refining the body. But the method of refining the body may be even more mysterious.

】

"Yijin Jing" is the vein of the whole body, which is the spirit of the five organs, which is circumferential but not scattered, continuous and continuous, the qi is born from the inside, and the blood is moistened from the outside. After training, the foundation of the body is stable, and it is unparalleled in the world.

After being integrated into "Fitness", not only have most of the effects of exercising the foundation of the human body been retained, but also like a chemical reaction, many of the potential of "Fitness" itself has been stimulated.

As a result, after Meng Xiuyuan tried to cultivate this new version of "Physical Fitness", he suddenly had an idea in his mind:

To break through the limits of this secular martial arts, "tempering the flesh" may also be regarded as a broad road.

If in the future, the path of absorbing the pure spirit of heaven and earth is not going well, and he turns to major in this "Fitness Technique", it is also a good choice for Meng Xiuyuan.

With the "compressed true qi", it may not take a few years for Meng Xiuyuan to transform from a sword immortal to a reckless King Kong, and with his bravery, he will be able to hammer the sweeping monk.

……

The days of indulging in martial arts always pass quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was more than a month, and Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu had finally finished studying all the contents of the "Yijin Sutra" in their hands, and it was difficult to make new discoveries in a short period of time.

At this time, Meng Xiuyuan originally wanted to practice his "Fitness Technique" kung fu for a while to strengthen his physical body. Just calculated the date, the date of the recruitment of Princess Yinchuan of Western Xia is approaching, if she doesn't move again, it will be too late.

Although there was a perfect new way, the kung fu of the Carefree School finally cost Meng Xiuyuan a lot of effort, and he didn't want to give up just like that.

After all, you still have to give it a try first, and if it really doesn't work, it's not too late to make other plans.

On the occasion of parting, Xuzhu sincerely blessed Meng Xiuyuan a few words, saying that he hoped that this Meng Gongzi would have a smooth journey and all things would be safe.

Meng Xiuyuan laughed when he heard this, and immediately said the same thing, "I wish the little master Xuzhu an early cultivation fruit", and then turned into a wisp of breeze and floated away.

……

The journey to Xixia was quite smooth, and there were no twists and turns. Meng Xiuyuan practiced every day and hurried, and he just felt that he was enjoying it.

It wasn't until later when he approached Xingzhou, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, that the number of martial artists encountered on the road suddenly increased.

But seeing that these young heroes are all well-dressed, and even the blades and equipment are very particular, it is as if they are going to catch some competition. When acquaintances met on the road, they made fun of each other, and they couldn't help but ask how the princess looked and how high her martial arts were; If they don't know it, they often look at each other angrily and regard the other party as an enemy.

Obviously, the position of this Xixia horse is really exciting, thinking that glory and wealth can be obtained at your fingertips, and many people are willing to try their luck.

Meng Xiuyuan was reluctant to participate in it, so he made light efforts and chose a small road to hurry.

When Meng Xiuyuan arrived in Xingzhou, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, the day of the Qingming selection of horses was approaching. Although this Xingzhou is a big city in Western Xia, but compared with the name of the Central Plains, it is far inferior, and there are countless heroes and heroes from all over the world who come to run for the horses, and several big inns have long been full.

Meng Xiuyuan didn't come to be a concubine, so he didn't think about staying in the hotel, but went straight to the Xixia Palace, wanting to talk to his good senior sister Li Qiushui.

But he didn't want to, Meng Xiuyuan walked back and forth in the Xixia Palace a few times, but he didn't find his figure.

In the end, he still found the sleeping palace of the Western Xia imperial concubine, and only then did he find a clue.

In front of Li Qiushui's dressing mirror, Meng Xiuyuan found a delicate envelope that had already been placed, on which the words "Tribute to my brother Meng Xiuyuan" were written on it.

When I opened it, it contained a room card of the inn and a proposal document written in the name of Meng Xiuyuan.

Obviously, the meaning of this good senior sister is very clear, she must force Meng Xiu to go far away to participate in the selection of horses.

Meng Xiuyuan didn't know what she was hiding, but she didn't care too much, she just waited for the time to improvise.

Out of the palace, Meng Xiuyuan followed the information on the inn room card to find a place to stay, thinking about resting for the night first.

But he didn't want to, as soon as he stepped into the backyard of the inn, he saw Murong Fu and his four ministers.

This Murong Gongzi was seriously injured at this time, and his face was already very pale, but when he suddenly saw Meng Xiuyuan appear, his face couldn't help but become even more ugly.

"Meng Gongzi...... Are you also here to ask for a marriage, do you want to be a Western Xia horse? ”

Murong Fu faced the father-killing enemy in front of him, but he still didn't show any hatred, but was more concerned about whether Meng Xiuyuan wanted to be this Western Xia concubine.

I don't know if he is out of the city, or if he really only thinks about "reviving Dayan" and leaving the revenge of killing his father behind.

Seeing this, Meng Xiu had no intention of talking to him, so he turned around and wanted to go upstairs to rest. But at this moment, several familiar figures walked in outside the courtyard.

It was Wang Yuyan, who had not been seen for many days, and the four sisters of Meilan and Zhuju were followed behind her.

As soon as Wang Yuyan walked into the courtyard, she first glanced in the direction of Murong Fu.

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, Murong Fu was a little embarrassed for a while, his brows furrowed, and he said softly:

"Cousin ......"

No, Wang Yuyan didn't respond, but instead withdrew her gaze, turned her head to look at Meng Xiuyuan on the side, and walked in front of Murong Fu indifferently.

The next moment, Wang Yuyan came to Meng Xiuyuan, saluted him respectfully, and said softly:

"Master Meng, don't come unharmed.

Grandma asked me to say hello to you on her behalf. ”
