Chapter 20 The abbot died and left the Buddha Wudang abandoned the door overnight

Master Qingyun entered the abbot's room with Zhenhui and the abbot, the abbot was very weak, sitting cross-legged on the bed, and said weakly: "I didn't expect that Shaolin's reputation for nearly a thousand years was finally ruined in my hands, I really have no face to see the Buddha and the patriarch of Shaolin!"

"Abbot" Xiao Shami Zhenhui knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times respectfully, and then still knelt on the ground and said: "The abbot does not have to blame himself too much, it may have been doomed in the dark, and all this is not the fault of the abbot, the Buddha said: "Mortals are afraid of the fruit, and the Bodhisattva is afraid of the cause." The evil result of destroying the temple was not caused by the abbot, but this evil result was the evil cause of the man in black, and there will be retribution in the future of the cycle of cause and effect. On the other hand, the abbot has done good deeds all his life, all of which have good causes, and the disciples firmly believe that the abbot will be able to get rid of the sea of suffering, ascend to bliss as soon as possible, and see me as he comes! If you see things that are not like each other, you will see them as they are. So don't take it to heart the abbot. ”

Qingkong Abbot and Master Qingyun, looking at the kneeling on the ground Xiao Shami Zhenhui, their eyes were full of relief, at a young age, they actually have such a deep understanding of Buddhism, and the Buddha nature is so high, I am afraid that it is not much higher than the Sanxiao monk back then.

"Child, you get up and speak, the ancestor is in love, and I am awakened by your words, you are very right, Buddha Yun: Knowing and seeing is knowledge, that is, ignorance, knowing and seeing nothing, that is, Nirvana. The ancestor still hasn't escaped one of the eight sufferings: I can't let it go!" The abbot was already angry, "Qingyun, you have found a good successor for Shaolin, and it is also a great merit! Amitabha, child, the Shaolin Temple will rely on you in the future." ”

"Yes, Master. Little Shami Zhenhui stood up and replied.

"Qingyun, there is a secret passage under the third row and the fourth floor tile in front of my bed, the mechanism is on the pillar next to my bed, just turn left three times, before I die, the whole room will be set on fire, you can leave." Remember, bring true wisdom. Go to the junior brother of Sanxiao, and then think about it in the long run. Senior Brother Sanxiao is the real great wisdom, and everything is entrusted to him. 'There may not be a true Buddha in the temple, but there may be high monks in the city. Where is there no red dust, where is there no Buddha, when, what, where is not to practice?' Amitabha Buddha ......" The abbot casually put the candle on the bed, and in a moment the flames rose to the sky, and the abbot slowly closed his eyes in a murmuring voice......

"Senior Brother Abbot......" Qingyun tears fell like rain.

"Let's go, Uncle Shi, 'Everything is impermanent, everything is suffering. There is no self in all laws, and silence is happiness', perhaps this is the best relief for the other father-in-law. After so many years, the pressure on the abbot may be too great...... "Zhenhui folded his hands and respectfully faced the abbot, bowed three more times, and then knelt down and kowtowed three times. There was not a single tear in his eyes, but a resolute look.

With tears in his eyes, Qingyun glanced at the abbot who was already in the raging fire, turned his hand on the bedpost three times, and the floor tiles were removed, revealing a hole that could only be drilled into the ground by one person, grabbed Zhenhui with one hand, and jumped down......

The news of the destruction of the whole temple of Shaolin Temple spread in the rivers and lakes, and all the major sects were panicked, thinking of the Yama Hall that was destroyed not long ago, Renhe Hall, for a time, the whole rivers and lakes suddenly rose, and the mountain rain was coming. The various sects are preparing for war, and they are dodging. For thousands of years, Shaolin has not resisted the mysterious organization, how many sects in the world can compete with it? Many sects are already far away, and people are empty.

Wudang Mountain, a sect with the same name as Shaolin in the rivers and lakes, although it is also like Shaolin, has gradually declined in the past hundred years, and has long lost the prestige of the year, but it is still a major sect in the rivers and lakes. Like the master of the three laughs, they are all the leaders of the new top ten in the world, in fact, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that whether it is three laughs or a cry, the martial arts are far above the other eight people, and in terms of seniority, they are also higher than the other eight people. Therefore, the various sects in the rivers and lakes are very martial arts face-saving. And Wudang is also closed-door, and the people in the sect almost do not walk around the rivers and lakes, and they are at peace with various sects.

In the Zhenwu Palace, Wudang is now in charge of the "Flying Sword". Sitting in the middle with a solemn face, sitting on the left and right are the two juniors of the master, the January Dao Chief, who is known as the "Flying Cloud Sword" in the rivers and lakes, and the one-star Dao Leader of the "Flying Feather Sword". Standing next to him were several second-generation disciples.

"Senior brother in charge, the destruction of Shaolin, now I believe that each sect has received a letter from its own contact point, the flying pigeon. Today's rivers and lakes are afraid that they are going to turn the sky upside down, and all sects are panicking, where to go, I hope that the senior brother in charge will make up his mind as soon as possible, otherwise, I am afraid that it will be too late to change. January Daoist said worriedly: "I want my Wudang faction to be as famous as Shaolin in the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid it will be our turn next." ”

"What are you afraid of, it's a big deal to fight to the death with them, and you won't lose the chivalry of the rivers and lakes!" The one-star Taoist and the Shaolin abbot had a great friendship, and when he heard the bad news of Shaolin, he was angry in his heart, and said angrily.

"I'm afraid that our strength is too far from the other party, junior brother, you ask yourself how your martial arts compare with the Shaolin Qingkong Master? How much is the gap between them and the top ten in the world? According to me, I'm afraid that your and my martial arts are at most slightly higher than the "Yin and Yang Double Judgment" of the Yama Palace. So what are we going to do with the mysterious people to fight to the death? I'm afraid it's just an egg hitting a stone, which will only increase casualties. "The first month of the Taoist said, earnestly.

"Well, Senior Brother January is right, the martial arts of these mysterious people are too high, even if you add me and all the disciples, I'm afraid we don't have the strength to fight, my martial arts, both of you know it, let alone the mysterious people, I'm afraid there is a bit of a gap compared to the top ten in the world. How do we fight, our three old bones are okay, but we can't even affect so many second and third generations of disciples, not to mention that we are different from Shaolin, most of Shaolin's disciples are orphans, all of them are monks, and our disciples basically have families, parents, wives and children, if they follow us to die in battle, their family is old and young, how should it be good. In addition, if we fight to the death, then many lay disciples will definitely come to support the master, and with their martial arts, I am afraid that they will just be sent to death in vain. Yichen Dao Chang also said with a worried look.

"Then according to the meaning of Senior Brother in charge and Senior Brother January, we will flee without a fight? If this is the case, then how will we still have a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future? In the rivers and lakes, how will the various sects and factions view us in Wudang? Will we lose this person? Alas, if we fight, and we don't have the strength to fight, what should we do?"

"Senior brother, think about the nearly 200 disciples of Shaolin, including the abbot, plus the two Zen masters Jingming and Jingfan, all died in battle overnight, except for Master Qingyun, who fled with a little novice, all of them were not spared. Our strength is much worse than that of Shaolin, how to fight, the senior brother also said just now, the key is that our disciples are not monks, dragging the family with their mouths, if they all die in battle, how many families will be shattered, how can we bear it!"

"Yes, what Senior Brother January said is very true, where to go, Senior Brother in charge, you can make up your mind, but as soon as possible, after making a decision, it is best to act tonight, so as not to have too many dreams at night. The one-star Dao Chang replied.

"Well, after thinking about it, I think it's still the old saying 'stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood', since you know that you are not an opponent, and you still go to death, it is not the work of the wise, or retain your strength, in order to make a comeback. In today's rivers and lakes, thousands of horses are together, it is a good way for us to choose to flee without a fight, there will always be sects in the rivers and lakes that confront these mysterious forces, our Wudang faction is lonely, it is better to unite with other resisting sects, and join forces to fight against this mysterious organization, and it is not known who will die at that time, so if we preserve our strength now, it can be regarded as accumulating a strength for the righteousness and justice of the rivers and lakes, two junior brothers, what do you think?"

"Senior Brother in charge, what I said is extremely true, in today's rivers and lakes, there is really no sect or faction that can fight against this mysterious force alone. So, senior brother, if we preserve our strength, where will we go? And how will the second and third generations of disciples in the sect be arranged? They are all dragged by the family, unlike the three of us, who are alone and have nothing to worry about. Just go. January Michijo asked.

"Listening to the rumors in the rivers and lakes, after the destruction of the Yama Palace, the 'Yin and Yang Double Judgment' and the 'Black and White Impermanence', all took refuge in Shandong Renhetang's 'Three Peerless Doctor Saints' Xue Qingxue Hero, well, on the night of the attack on Renhetang, they escaped with the Snow Hero, it is said that there is also 'Hell Swordsman' Li Changyang, as well as 'Thunderbolt Heavy Sword' Xiahou Kong, together with his wife and 'Three Strange and Four Strange' two elders, a group of people are heading north, and it is said that they are taking refuge in Feng Ruyi, the owner of Ruyi Fang outside the Saiwai. In addition, I also heard that the desert Taibao Yao Jin scimitar iron to the north, the first master of the clay hand. Silver Fox 'Ouyang Mei'er, also all took refuge in Ruyifang, if these people all gathered together, in the rivers and lakes must also be a force to be reckoned with, we might as well go to Ruyifang, I firmly believe that maybe Ruyifang will become the backbone of the fight against the mysterious organization, in addition to our senior brother a crying Dao Chang and three laughing masters, after hearing the news of the rivers and lakes, I want to use the friendship of the three laughing masters and a crying Dao to be long in Xue Qingxue Hero, and will definitely go north to find them, then at that time, our strength is relatively strong, I think there may be a battle force。 Yichen Dao said.

"Then what should we do with our many second and third generations of disciples and their families? If we go straight to the Black Mountain and Baishui, we will definitely be ambushed halfway, and their families basically don't know martial arts, and occasionally they will be three-legged cats. The one-star Taoist asked.

"I think so, the three of us with a small number of two or three generations of disciples who have not yet started a family, the number should not be too much, about ten of us, the rest of us are broken into pieces on the spot, disbanded on the spot, each returned to his own family, waiting for the opportunity, I think no matter how powerful the mysterious person is, it is impossible to find them one by one, and he can't find the second or third generation of disciples, in fact, the purpose of the mysterious person is very obvious, that is, he wants to step on the various major sects and major inheritance sects in the rivers and lakes, raise his own prestige, strengthen his own momentum, in order to achieve the purpose of deterring all sects and factions in the rivers and lakes, so their target must be us, not these second and third generations of disciples, if this is arranged, I guess we should make sure they're safe. If we choose this way, we will not only preserve our strength to the greatest extent, but also better protect our second and third generations of disciples and their families, two junior disciples, what do you think? I really can't think of a better way. The head of the dust road said his final plan.

"Good idea, just do what our senior brother said, I think this idea is very good, after we leave, will they burn our Wudang Mountain like a fire to the Shaolin Temple? There are so many disciples who want to withdraw all of them tonight, I'm afraid it won't be so soon." The one-star Taoist asked.

"Regardless of whether they will burn down our Zhenwu Palace, let's save our strength first, let's talk about it, the house burned down, we can build it again in the future, but people can't be resurrected when they die, at present, there is really no better choice for us, as for the second and third generations of disciples in the sect, fortunately, most of them are currently on the mountain and have not yet started a family, occasionally a few have a family, parents and old people or wives and children are not on the mountain, it should not be so troublesome to evacuate, you can let them notify the various disciples under the mountain, hide on the spot, if in the future, we have a foothold in the black mountain and white water." 。 Then these disciples are ambushed in the rear as surprise soldiers, and it is not a bad move to inquire about the news. In this way, the two junior disciples, all the second and third generations of disciples we did not take away, each of them will be given a settling-in allowance of five hundred taels of silver, so that they can live in seclusion in the local area or in the surrounding area, and leave a secret message for contact, so as to facilitate future contact, in addition, select a few martial arts are relatively strong, and the number of our three personal disciples cannot exceed ten, let's prepare tonight and set off immediately, without further ado, there will be changes later. What do you two think?"

"Okay, senior brother, if you arrange it this way, neither of us has any opinion. January and the one-star Taoist both said.

"Okay, the two of you will make separate arrangements now, and all the disciples in the other hall, you have also heard it, so go and prepare separately!"

In addition, the gold and silver in the faction and the martial arts cheats are also divided, and those that should be taken away are taken away, so as not to leave a little usable material for the mysterious person, and smash all the things that cannot be taken away, such as furniture and bed boards, so that the mysterious person can pounce on it. ”

The Dust Dao Leader began to give the order to retreat.

"Yes!" The second and third generations of disciples in the hall received the order in unison, and each went separately to prepare.

In less than half an hour, in the Wudang Sect, many second- and third-generation disciples were basically ready and returned to the hall to resume their lives. The January Dao Leader and the One-Star Dao Chief, each carrying a burden, also came back with a colorful ancient sword on their backs.

"Master Qiqi, everything has been arranged, when will we leave?" the disciples asked.

"Without further ado, we will go down the mountain separately, all from the secret path, and no further down the mountain, and now we will set off at once. When you descend the mountain, you will divide up and inform the disciples and other lay disciples at the bottom of the mountain. Yichen Dao Chang said, "You all come here." After speaking, his left hand was on his own head seat, and he gently pressed the head seat in the middle and slid it away gently, slowly, revealing a tunnel opening. "Follow me. Yichen Dao Chang shouted, everyone heard the words, the clouds entered, a while of effort, more than 100 people disappeared cleanly, Yichen Dao was in the tunnel, with his hand to turn the lamp in the hole slightly, the chair slowly reset. Back to normal. Then with a light touch of his hand on another lamp, the mechanism will be destroyed.

At the time of the third watch, a group of black-clothed people quietly touched Wudang Mountain, but found that the huge Wudang Mountain, together with the Zhenwu Hall and the backyard, there was no one, and more than 100 disciples, including the head, were all gone, every room was searched, and no figure was found, and the furniture in each room was smashed.

"Escaped? No, isn't it? The dignified Wudang actually abandoned the mountain and fled?" said the man in black at the head of the group.

"Yes, the entire Wudang Mountain is empty, and they smashed all the furniture before leaving, it seems that they don't plan to return to Wudang Mountain in the near future. A man in black who was in charge of the search replied.

"Yes, I didn't expect the dignified Wudang Mountain to run away without a fight, this is really a bit unexpected, hey, yes, our disciples who are in charge of monitoring at the bottom of the mountain, didn't we say that we didn't see the Wudang disciples coming down the mountain? So, where did so many Wudang disciples go? Where did they escape?" asked the man in black who was the leader.

"According to the observation of my subordinates, I think that Wudang Mountain has been operating for many years, there will definitely be a secret road, and they should all have escaped from the secret road, however, I think that although they escaped, our goal has also been achieved, and it is even better than destroying them, because from today on, it will definitely be rumored in the rivers and lakes that Wudang, one of the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts, actually fled without a fight, and our prestige will be more prominent, and it will definitely make the big and small sects in the rivers and lakes talk about the color change, compared to our comprehensive, their effect is more than that. The man in black said.

"Well, what you said is not unreasonable, I just didn't expect that the dignified Wudang would run away without a fight, this is really unexpected, I estimate, not only I can't think of it, I'm afraid the elders and the alliance leader can't think of it, Wudang actually abandoned his reputation for hundreds of years, and fled in a hurry, 'panicking like a lost dog, anxious like a fish that slipped through the net', this kind of embarrassing escape, if it spreads to the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid it will also be made fun of by other sects, as you said, it is better than killing them, hahaha." The man in black said with a laugh.

"What should we do now?"

"Let out the words, Wudang fleeing without a fight is equivalent to destroying the door, and then we will go down the mountain to rest for a while, and prepare for the next target. The man in black commanded.

"Yes. The man in black replied.

The man in black in charge of the search waved his hand, and a group of men in black surrounded him. "Let's go!"

More than 100 black-clothed people rushed out of the mountain gate and disappeared into the vast night in an instant......
