Chapter 72 A tooth for a tooth on the mountain
It's the day, and the little room is under the mountain.
At this time, it is the time when the sun rises in the east, the light is ten thousand ways, like fire, the whole heaven and earth, a group of colorful and colorful, Shaomuro Mountain seems to have become a "submerged" island.
On the mountain road of Shaomuro Mountain, the two golden lights cover the body, winding up, it is really like bathing in light. This rider is naturally Gu Chaoci and Mu Nianci.
The two of them traveled all the way, and they saw that the Shaomuro Mountain was majestic and precipitous, steep and straight, and the peaks were clustered and undulating, such as the banner surrounding, like a sword halberd listed, quite spectacular. Although the mountain is steep, but this mountain road is eight miles long, very wide stone steps, the scale of this project is magnificent, this is built by Tang Gaozong Li Zhi when he was fortunate in Shaolin, it consumes a huge amount of manpower and material resources, it is rare.
At that time, Dajin occupied Henan, has gone through a hundred years, the world's Taoist temples, has been destroyed in the war is very many, but Shaolin to the martial arts self-respect, and carry the name of the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, do not participate in the change of dynasty, but did not suffer from the disaster of the fire, the sole claim is intact.
After a while, the two arrived in front of a stone pavilion.
Gu Chaoci knew that this place should be the place where the people in the Shaolin Temple met with some people who were inconvenient to enter the Shaolin Temple. Thinking about it, he tied his horse to this place.
The two of them climbed the stairs again, but saw that on the opposite mountain, five waterfalls splashed jade, rushing down, it was spectacular, this is the five milk bees of Shaolin Mountain, and they were already able to see the Shaolin Temple.
Just see the place surrounded by the peaks, the temple is horizontal, the building is magnificent, who has seen it, not to mention the great grandeur of this Zen ancestral court, it is difficult to have the Buddha temple in the world.
The two looked at the continuous houses, for a while, in the admiration, and slowly walked up the mountain, straight to the temple gate, there was no one on the way, the two felt quite strange.
Come to the front of the temple gate, you see the yellow wall and blue tile, the trees are forested, in front of the temple gate erects Tang Taizong Li Shimin, the stone tablet of the royal pen himself, carrying the thirteen high monks of Shaolin, helping him to besiege Luoyang Wang Shichong, and capturing the exploits of his son Wang Renze.
It's just that it's a long time ago, the wind has eroded and the rain has peeled off, and most of the handwriting on the stele has been blurred.
Outside the temple gate, there are several small monks sweeping the floor, who are sweeping from time to time, and there are bursts of melodious and undulating Sanskrit singing in the temple.
Gu Chaoci knew that if he came here today, he would inevitably offend people, and he would not play false, so he said directly and loudly: "After the martial arts, I learned from Gu Chaoci, and I have long admired the prestige of Shaolin, and I came to worship the mountain with my wife today!" ”
His voice was not very loud, but his voice was deep and majestic, like the waves of the sea, far away, the mountains echoed, the wind moved the clouds, and even the bronze bell and drum hanging high outside the temple gate were stirred by the words, and they were buzzing at the same time.
The shouting of the Brahman in the temple also stopped abruptly.
Several novices who swept the floor saw a young man and woman coming, and wanted to ask what the person was doing, but before they could ask each other, they heard this person talk like this.
Although they are young, they also know that the so-called mountain worshippers are basically here to pick the door.
And as soon as the other party spoke, the bronze bell began to buzz, and they just lay down in front of the bronze bell and shouted, but they couldn't do it. This shows how powerful the people are.
As soon as I thought about it, I remembered the name "Gu Chaoci", and immediately took a seat, and suddenly changed color in shock, someone was more determined, and rushed into the temple to report.
As everyone knows, they are doing this too much. As soon as Gu Chao's resignation came out, Mo said that in the Shaolin Temple, even half of Shaolin Mountain was buzzing. The front and back yards of Shaolin Temple can be heard everywhere.
At this time, Master Xintong, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, was discussing with several juniors and disciples about the "spicy hand scholar" appearing in Luoyang and killing hundreds of people. Suddenly, outside the temple, Gu Chao's words came from afar, and several people looked at each other, thinking: "This spicy scholar is really unfathomable!" ”
Of course, those who had fought with Gu Chaoci, the three first hearts, hearts, and hearts were surprised, and their hearts were shocked: "His internal strength has actually improved again!" ”
At this time, the abbot put his palms together, chanted "Amitabha Buddha", slowly stood up, and said softly: "Brothers, this person's internal cultivation is unmatched by this temple, and the martial arts attainments must be extraordinary.
Now that it's coming, we can't avoid it!
A few junior brothers, I'll wait and see what kind of style the spicy scholar is! ”
"What Senior Brother Abbot said is very true, please!"
The monks stood up, followed the concentric communication, and went out of the main hall together, and went straight to the temple gate.
After Gu Chaoci finished speaking, he and Mu Nianci stood in front of Shaolin Temple and waited patiently.
After only a moment, I heard more than ten huge bells in the temple, which rang together, and the sound of "bell" only shook the mountains. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, each brisk.
Suddenly, the temple door "squeaked", the left and right holes opened, divided into left and right out, two rows of monks wearing gray robes, rushed out, fifty-four people on the left, fifty-four people on the right, a total of one hundred and eight people, a total of one hundred and eight Arhats.
He was followed by eighteen monks, with gray robes covered with yellow robes, all of whom were older than the Arhat monks.
Then the abbot of Xintong wore a big red robe and walked out slowly, followed by more than a dozen old monks wearing golden robes, all of whom looked to be fifty or sixty years old, all of whom were elders and monks in the Dharma Academy, the Precept Academy, the Prajna Hall, and the Arhat Hall.
After a while, two more old monks wearing large plaid robes came out. The two of them are wrinkled, with fluttering white beards, and they look like they are eighty, and they are Shaolin bitter monks. In the end, they walked out again, and hundreds of Shaolin lay disciples were displayed on both sides.
Gu Chaoci didn't care about other people, seeing this group of old monks, looking at their walking posture, they were all profound in martial arts. On the rivers and lakes, they are all first-class masters. I thought: "Shaolin Temple is now in decline, and it is only because there is no top master in charge that it has been covered up by the five uniques." But after all, it has a long heritage, a wide variety of martial arts, and a profound heritage, which is far from being comparable to other schools. If you don't have a good discussion with them, you won't be a hero! ”
He had this thought in his heart, and when he saw the formation of Shaolin Temple, although he was a little surprised, he also handled it calmly.
Gu Chaoci originally planned to let Mu Nianci wait at the foot of the mountain, but when he thought about it, he had just killed so many people in Henan, and at this moment, there was no safety around him. No matter how bold Shaolin Temple is, he will never dare to do anything to Mu Nianci again.
Because of the clear heart, how can you not tell the other abbot about Mu Nianci's identity? And Hong Qigong came to the rescue that day, although they did not meet, they must have conjectures about that person in their hearts. Besides, if they really have such shameless thoughts, then he can also deal with it.
As soon as Xintong and the monks left the temple, they were also looking at the two.
Seeing that Gu Chaoci was dressed in white, his demeanor was clear, and Mu Nianci was dressed in an emerald green shirt, with a sword hanging from his waist, young and beautiful, and heroic. Xincheng, the first seat of the Luohan Hall, whispered a few words in the abbot's ear, saying that this woman was Mu Nianci, who had been passed on by the nine-fingered beggar.
As for Gu Chao's resignation and official worship of Hong Qigong, not many people in the rivers and lakes know about it. Even the dog stick, Gu Chaoci has been wrapped in a cloth bag, not showing in front of people. No matter how well-informed Shaolin information is, I don't know the clues now.
The heart is clear, the head is slightly bowed, and the heart is clear.
All the senior monks are knowledgeable, but from the two of them, they know that Mu Nianci's identity is not trivial, and his martial arts are average, but when they saw Gu Chaoci, everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, and they were shocked.
From each other's voices, they all heard that Gu Chaoci's internal cultivation was extremely profound, but when they came out, when they came out, this person looked so ordinary in addition to being handsome, but the others looked so ordinary, especially a pair of eyes that did not show their brilliance, but there was a faint sense of warmth and crystalline, and when the sun shone, it could be described as brilliant.
The Shaolin monks naturally know their internal strength and have reached an extremely high level, so their manners and eyes are hidden everywhere. It has reached the wonderful realm of returning from reality to fiction and returning from truth to simplicity.
At such an age, this cultivation is also amazing.
This temple has been established for hundreds of years, and there have never been a few such characters!
The monks admired it very much, and they also secretly praised it in their hearts: "The abbot is really prescient!" ”
On that day, Gu Chaoci was in northern Zhejiang, defeating the three first Shaolin and the three small Arhat formations, which had shocked the abbot and the monks.
Shaolin disciples are prosperous, all over the rivers and lakes, although the temple has been closed for many years, but the big and small things in the rivers and lakes are all known. What kind of spicy hand scholar, with the Nine Yin True Scripture and the Yijin Sutra, the rivers and lakes killed for this, the bloody wind and rain, they are all clear.

Yesterday, I heard that Gu Chaoci went on a killing spree in the "Absolute Heaven Valley" outside Luoyang City, killing more than 200 people at a time.
They also know their own family affairs, they know that Gu Chaoci is famous and ruthless, and it is not difficult to see from all kinds of deeds that he is a person who will repay him. Now that this kind of person has arrived in Luoyang, how can he not come to Shaolin?
It's just that the prestige of Shaolin Temple, the already big earth-shattering sound, since the establishment of the faction, it has long been common to come to the temple to cause trouble and become famous. It is because of the face, even the daily homework of the monks does not drop out. However, the abbot of Xintong expected that the "spicy hand scholar" would inevitably come to the bad one, and the temple stepped up its precautions, and passed down the decree together, and the monks and lay disciples within five hundred miles all returned to the temple to listen to the tune.
Now I can hear Gu Chao's words and worship the mountain, knowing that today's Shaolin Temple is facing the great juncture of glory and disgrace, but it is estimated that his martial arts are similar to those of Xincheng, Xinyuan, Xinguan and others, and may not be stronger than the three of them.
Only then did I have to invite out, two senior monks who have been cultivating for a long time, come out to charge.
It's just that whether these two elders can control the "spicy hand scholars", the abbot and the senior monks are not very supportive. After all, they didn't know how far these two old martial arts had become.
But at this time, when I saw Gu Chaoci himself, my heart was even more bottomless, and I knew that no matter how high my uncle's martial arts were, he was definitely not Gu Chaoci's opponent.
The abbot of Xintong and Gu and Mu stopped three zhang away from each other, his heart moved, his hands were folded, and he proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Lao Qu Xintong, Shaolin Portal, I have heard for a long time that Gu Jushi's martial arts are unique in the world, but it is a pity to save one." I never thought that I would come from afar today, and I would miss the distance, forgive my sins, forgive my sins. ”
Gu Chaoci arched his hand and smiled: "The abbot has praised it!"
In the next little name, what a word! Today, he came unexpectedly with his wife and disturbed the master's cultivation, which is really a sin. It also alarmed all the senior monks and went out of the temple to greet them, how could they bear it? ”
Xintong saw that he spoke politely and politely, and his heart was shocked: "This person is crazy and famous, and he is so humble, I am afraid that the plotter is great!" He was worried in his heart, but his face was impassive, as if he said: "The layman is too polite, please enter the temple to serve tea!" As he spoke, he stepped aside and stretched out his hand sideways.
Before Gu Chaoci could say anything, he heard an old monk behind Xintong shouting: "Wait." ”
The monks followed the sound and saw that it was the senior monk who had been cultivating for a long time.
Bitter Xiang took two steps forward, raised his eyebrows, and said coldly: "Our temple has been established for 800 years, and there have been no women entering the temple. ”
As soon as he said this, not to mention that Gu Chaoci and Mu Nianci were unhappy, even a few high-ranking monks with hearts and minds had a headache, what kind of trouble is Uncle Shi going to make?
Women can't enter the temple, we have always been separated, don't you know?
In fact, Gu Chaoci never thought that if he entered the Shaolin Temple, if he was alone, inside and outside the temple, it would be the same to him. But with Mu Nianci, if the Shaolin Temple is really shameless, and the whole temple is on the same page, it will not be easy to come and go freely.
But it's one thing for him to get in or not, and it's another thing to let him in.
When Gu Chaoci saw this person, he almost said that he was going to refuse Mu Nianci to enter the temple, and suddenly he was crazy and slanted, and saw that his eyebrows were white, his face was burnt yellow, he had a pair of hanging horned eyes, his eyes were sharp, and his internal strength was obviously not weak, and his face was even more ditched, and if he caught up with the rainy season, he would also store a lot of water.
Youyou said: "There is one thing that has not yet been asked, whether this Shaolin abbot is a master of Xintong, or you are an unknown master!" ”
Kuxiang said without thinking: "Old man is bitter, of course the abbot of this temple is a nephew of Xintong. ”
Gu Chaoci saw that his face was as his name suggested, and said with a smile: "I see, the master of bitterness was originally the lord of your temple, it is really disrespectful." He arched his hand as he spoke.
His words were very vicious, and his bitter face was immediately clear, and his yellow face full of wrinkles turned red as blood in an instant, and this statement was a mockery of his unauthorized speech, refuting the abbot's edict, and his identity was above the abbot.
The rules of Shaolin Temple are very big, the abbot is a word, no matter your seniority, strong martial arts, you have to bow down and obey orders.
A hundred years ago, there was a sweeping monk in this temple, who was invincible in the world, and he had to do it according to his duties, let alone him.
The bitter phase knows his own moderation, Rao is his martial arts are extraordinary, and he was also so angry that he trembled slightly, but in front of everyone, he did lose his manners to the abbot, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
The abbot of Xintong can occupy the position of the abbot, and he is not vulgar, and after listening to Gu Chaoci's words, he only smiled and said: "Amitabha, Gu Jushi has not been debuting for a long time, and some things seem to be unclear. Uncle Bitter is the patriarch of the temple, through many and wide, although the poor monk is in charge of the door, many things often ask the uncle for advice. ”
Hearing this, his expression softened, and he retreated silently and said no more.
But Gu Chaoci secretly admired that this heart not only gave face to the patriarch of the temple, but also faintly said that he was young and ignorant, which hurt himself.
Gu Chao resigned here to challenge the prestige of Shaolin, although Liang Zi did not understand, but most of them were out of his heart, he was a young man, a young man, a young man, he naturally wanted to establish an immortal prestige, and stepping on Shaolin was only the first step.
But seeing the heartache, he always smiles at each other, and the city is very deep, compared to those violent tempers, it is much more difficult to fight.
After all, if Shaolin wants to pick today, it has to take advantage of the reason, and it is not interesting to make trouble directly without reason, and the most important people are rushing up, don't you have to lose this time!
He is not arrogant to the point that one person can destroy a thousand people in Shaolin Temple at one time.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing: "Your temple does not treat female guests, and it is really a strange news in the world." Think that Wu Zetian first accompanied Tang Gaozong, and after becoming the emperor, he sealed Zen in Songshan, and was fortunate to be Shaolin twice, but he didn't hear of it, and she was rejected outside the temple?
Isn't your temple also like a layman, treating people with the dignity of people, right? ”
Gu Chao's resignation is actually nonsense, how did he know that Wu Zetian had never been to Shaolin Temple. But Li Zhi must have come, and Wu Zetian also came to Songshan to seal Zen, but these two things are very certain.
And this matter is a long time apart, seven hundred years have passed, whether there is any, Shaolin monks, who can really look at all the experiences of this temple.
And Ku Xiang and the others saw that he was chiseled, and knew that their mountain road was indeed excavated when Tang Gaozong came, and this matter may be true, but it is not known, and they are a little embarrassed at the moment.
Xintong said with a smile: "The layman is ancient and modern, and the old man admires it." My Buddha is compassionate, all laws are equal, all beings are one, men and women are equal to each other. The temple did have this rule in the early days, but it was just to avoid gossip from the world. The two of them are both martial arts people, so there is no need to stick to this example. ”
Gu Chaoci laughed and said, "Master Abbot, there is really you." When I came down to the treasure temple, there were three small things to do.
I didn't want to enter the treasure temple, but I couldn't get used to it, and you patriarchal rules and precepts said some gossip. ”
Xintong smiled and said, "Thank you for your advice." This temple is divided into men and women, and it does seem stingy. I don't know which three little things, I hope the layman will show them! ”
Gu Chaoci stared at him, nodded and said very solemnly: "First, more than two months ago, the three monks of your temple had no appearance, no pain, and no anger, and there was a conflict with Zaixia, I let them let them go again and again, they were aggressive, and they swarmed up, and they laid siege, they were famous, and I was not angry about these."
But my subordinates are merciful, this painless monk uses the vicious trick of a stick in a stick against me, and plots against me!
According to my temperament, he should have been disposed of on the spot, but I heard that Shaolin is the source of martial arts in the world, so I gave Guisi a face and let him go.
But I once said that I want to kiss Shaolin and return the tooth! ”
As he spoke, his eyes sharpened, and the cold light had already shot towards a monk on the right, who was the painless monk, and said coldly: "Painless, you will stand up!" ”
Everyone saw that he was commanding, like a Shaolin abbot, his painless lips trembled, his fists clenched, and he didn't have time to answer.
Listening to Gu Chaoci's words, it was all the fault of the disciples of this sect, and he couldn't help but have a seizure, and said angrily: "Gu Chaoci, you are clearly reversing black and white, bullying the weak, and suppressing people with skills. In vain, you are so famous, and what you do is no different from that scoundrel! ”
Gu Chao was angry when he resigned, and said with a smile: "Bald donkey, if you don't accept it, you will be taught in the end!" ”
As a monk of the bitter generation, he is the person with the highest rank in Shaolin Temple, and the abbot Xintong also respects him, and when he saw Gu Chaoci's rude words, he challenged him, and he also believed in his position, and did not wait for the abbot to speak, and snorted coldly: "I have learned!" ”。
With a wave of his arms, the monk's robe shook, his toes were forced, his body was already shot out, his right palm was raised, his luck was raised, and he slapped it towards Gu Chaoci in the air.
