Chapter 10: Jueyuan

The difference between Shaolin and the glamorous Shaolin Temple seen in the news of later generations is still quite big, there is no very golden and brilliant decoration, and there is no vermilion gate, there is only a dilapidated and painted temple gate, and the dirt road inside covers the whole temple, and there is no shadow of the stone road.

Dongzhang followed closely behind the team, thinking, there are no various commercial performances in later generations, and there is no endless stream of pilgrims, the Shaolin Temple at this time is the real pure place, and after a while, Dongzhang came to the room at the back of the temple with the team.

Seeing that the middle-aged monk led by Li Laohan settled with Li Laohan, Dongzhang just stood quietly behind and watched silently, and when the settlement was clear, Li Laohan took advantage of the situation and said with a smile to the middle-aged monk:

"It's rare for my nephew to come to your temple, and since he came, he wants to go to the pillar incense to pray for peace."

"The donor is polite, then let the little monk come."

The middle-aged monk glanced at the well-behaved Dongzhang and said to Li Laohan with a smile, and then the two followed the middle-aged monk to the main hall.

And the middle-aged monk didn't explain anything, but stretched out his hand to Li Laohan and Dongzhang and said, "Donor, please take care of yourself." ”

Dongzhang stretched out his hand to tear off the hanging burden from his waist, took out a few incense candles from it and handed them to Li Laohan, then stepped forward to light incense and incense, Li Laohan also did the same as Dongzhang one by one, looking at Dongzhang's pious appearance, the middle-aged monk unconsciously looked at Dongzhang and was much more pleasing to the eye, smiling and standing on Dongzhang's side and waiting quietly.

Dongzhang pretended to be for a long time before he finally got up and walked to the middle-aged monk with his hands folded and said: "Master, not long ago, my father was brutally killed by the Mongols, and the kid wanted to copy a mantra to burn and mourn, I don't know if it is possible." ”

When he said this request, Dongzhang could be said to be full of sweat, success or failure was in one fell swoop, and his expression was as sad as possible, the middle-aged monk was stunned for a while, thinking, no wonder this young man was silent and arrogant all the way, it turned out that there was a family mourning, and the Mongolians were really hateful, so he thought about it and smiled kindly:

"It's rare for the little donor to have this filial piety, my Buddha is compassionate, this little request is not indispensable, the poor monk is called Huichen, the donor please come with the poor monk."

After Huichen finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door, Dongzhang was happy in his heart, and hurriedly followed Huichen without showing a trace on his face, and after a while, the three of them had already passed through the rows of houses to the back mountain, and a somewhat dilapidated pavilion suddenly came into view.

Staring at the three quaint characters on the attic plaque, the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, Dongzhang's heart was inevitably excited, this is the holy land that runs through several masterpieces of the old man Jin, each of the seventy-two stunts in it can be regarded as a first-class mastery when carried to the rivers and lakes, but because the martial arts in it are too lethal, and the threshold is also high, few people can do a few, so they often choose one to practice for life.

Dongzhang stood behind and saw Huichen come forward and knock on the door, the door opened in a moment, and a gray-robed monk stepped out, only to see that he was long and jade, and he was all elegant, if it were not for the bald monk's uniform, he would be a scholar.

The age is about twenty-six or seven, the book says that he was in his fifties when he met Yang Guo at the top of Huashan, and he was an ascetic who had never stepped out of the Shaolin Temple for more than 30 years.

Dongzhang's most critical character at the moment is this person, if he is really as the old man Jin said in the book, then this matter will be inseparable, if the personality is very different from the book, it is a headache.

Then why is there such a thing, his first appearance was with his apprentice Zhang Junbao on the top of Huashan, the reason is to recover the scriptures of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and the people who stole the books are Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi, the reason is that Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi were chased and killed by Mongolian soldiers outside the temple.

Jueyuan took in the two out of kindness, and by chance the two of them discovered the Jiuyang Sutra in the crack of the Lenga Sutra, and they had the idea of stealing the book, so they met Yang Guo and his party on the top of Huashan Mountain later.

Speaking of Jueyuan's character, it is extremely pedantic, how can you say that, Jueyuan's master and apprentice chased to the top of Huashan, Jueyuan himself obviously has far more kung fu than Xiaoxiangzi and Yin Kexi, but he still insisted on using his mouth to persuade the two to return the book, the result can be imagined, the two will definitely not admit it, and in the end, it was really the disciple Zhang Junbao who couldn't stand it and stepped forward to search for books.

However, the gap between Zhang Junbao and Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi in martial arts is too big, and the two of them did not kill Zhang Junbao only because of the presence of Yang Guo and others, but even so, Zhang Junbao stepped forward and was reprimanded by Jueyuan.

Seeing that his apprentice was beaten, he didn't think of stepping forward to help, but bitterly persuaded Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi not to kill his apprentice, Yang Guo's inner words at that time were that this master Jueyuan was so pedantic, rare in the world, no wonder the scriptures he supervised would be stolen by these two villains.

Yang Guo and a few people wanted to help him get back the scriptures, and he also went to persuade everyone not to use force, and when Zhang Junbao stepped forward to search for books and was beaten, Xiao Guo Xiang couldn't help but say that this great monk was too pedantic, and he pursued the two of them.

It's not because of the Jiuyang Sutra, but to recover the four volumes of the Ranga Sutra, just because this Ranga Sutra is the original that Bodhidharma brought back from Tianzhu, and the Jiuyang Sutra is just a method to strengthen the body in Jueyuan's opinion, and he himself has been practicing it for more than 30 years by chance, and he also feels that it is just a kind of exercise to strengthen the body.

So he also picked up some parts of the body and taught them to Zhang Junbao to practice, if he knew that this was Shaolin's peerless magic skill, with his pedantic character, he would never dare to practice, let alone teach it to the apprentice Zhang Junbao.

Take a look at what he said in the book: "The little monk supervises the scripture pavilion, and every scripture in the pavilion must be read." Thinking that the Buddhist scriptures are full of the wise sayings of the foresight, the little monks are all convinced, and see that there are many methods for strengthening the body and washing the marrow of the muscles in this "Jiuyang Sutra", and the little monks will do it one by one.

For decades, he has been diligent and unremitting, but he has not been sick, and in recent years, he has picked some easy ones to teach Junbao. The "Jiuyang Sutra" is just to teach people to maintain the body of color and appearance, this stinky skin is not important, although the scripture is written by the Bodhidharma Patriarch, after all, it is the study of the skin and the path, and it is just a matter of losing. But the Ranga Sutra is a Buddhist canon, and the two laymen don't understand the Tianzhu script, so it's useless to borrow it, so it's better to give it back to the little monk. ”

It's just a matter of God losing!! From the time he calmly confessed to Yang Guo and the others, everyone already knew that the god had stolen the Lenga Sutra, but he thought that the Jiuyang Sutra, a small method for strengthening the body, was right.

In Dongzhang's opinion, if Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi just took away the Jiuyang True Sutra in the cracks of the Lenga Sutra, Xing Jueyuan would not have cared in the slightest, because in his opinion, this was just a trivial fitness method.

But these two fools actually took away the original Lenga Sutra, which was unbearable in Jueyuan's opinion, this is the master who has not been out of the Shaolin Temple for more than 30 years, he can be called a hardcore otaku, the east is evil and the west is poisonous, the southern emperor and the northern beggar, these famous characters in the rivers and lakes, he doesn't know any of them.

In the book, Yang Guo was also secretly shocked: "He has learned the best kung fu in martial arts, but he doesn't know it, and he just strengthens his body and does not get sick." Such a strange thing has never been seen before in the martial arts.

If I had not seen him so restrained and polite, I would have said that he was a posturer and a hidden one. It is no wonder that Tianming, Colorless, and Phaseless Zen masters have been in the same temple with him for decades, but they don't know that there is such a strange person among their peers. ”

People like Jueyuan will be proper national treasures in the next life, and everyone must know what happened next, in the end, Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi were still searched, but no scriptures were found.

Yang Guo proposed to torture the two to ask the scriptures, but Jueyuan stopped them, and finally put the two down the mountain, but the truth was that the two sewed the scriptures into the stomach of an ape, and then the two took the ape to the Western Regions.

Because of mutual suspicion and conspiracy, in the end, both were injured and died, and Yin Kexi met the three sages of Kunlun He Zudao before he died, and his conscience was disturbed, so he asked him to go to Shaolin Temple to inform Master Jueyuan that the scripture was in the belly of this ape.

But when he spoke, he was confused and slurred, and he was in the monkey, but He Zudao heard it as being in the oil, and in the end, Jueyuan didn't understand what it meant.
