Chapter Eighty-Five: The Truth Comes Out
After asking him again about the reason for becoming a monk, Zhao Weiming knew: It turned out that when Lin Yuantu followed Song Dart to send darts to the mysterious dart master, at that time, as soon as the dart team passed Chuzhou, seeing that it was not far from the destination, everyone also began to talk and laugh and relax. Unexpectedly, when passing a cliff, the horses carrying goods were suddenly frightened and fell off the cliff. Knowing that the person who supported the dart on this trip paid very well, Lin Yuantu immediately took the lead in running to the bottom of the cliff to find the dart. But when I arrived at the scene, I saw that the big box had already been shattered, and the books contained in it were scattered all over the ground. What kind of books are so precious? Lin Yuantu, who was curious for a moment, picked up a book wrapped in brocade and flipped through it. Who knows, after a glance, I realized that this book called 'Sunflower Treasure Book' was actually a secret book for martial arts practice. In particular, the cultivation methods of swordsmanship on several pages made him ecstatic, who was already obsessed with swordsmanship. Just as he was about to take a closer look, Song Dart and the others had already arrived. In a hurry, he hurriedly tore off the few pages with the content of swordsmanship cultivation and hid them, and then casually repacked all the scattered books with the others and continued to hurry.
After returning to Fuzhou, Lin Yuantu often secretly took those pages of cheats to study. But how can it be that the swordsmanship is extremely profound, and it is a fragment of pinching the head and removing the tail, and there is no progress for several days. "Probably peerless martial arts are so profound, only by studying slowly can you succeed in cultivation," Lin Yuantu thought at the time. During this period, although Lin Zhenying also asked him about the lack of books, he was all prevaricated by him. After a period of peaceful days, just when Lin Yuantu thought that the matter was over, but one day not long after, Lin Zhenying told him: Because one of the books was missing a few pages, Song Dart's family had all been killed, and he knew that he had fallen into a big disaster! When the dart owner pressed tighter and tighter, the dart game began to kill one after another. Under tremendous psychological pressure, he had to choose to run away from home.
Who knows, in a panic, a few days later, he ran all the way to Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City. Thinking of the many people who have been victimized because of myself, I have the heart to use the Dharma to transcend the souls of the dead in this quiet place. He lied to the abbot of Hanshan Temple and kept Hanshan Temple. After staying, although he chopped wood and carried water every day, the morning bell and the dusk drum, he never forgot for a moment those who were killed by himself. But the big mistake has been made, and at this time, he can only wait for them to avenge them in the future. Thinking of the mysterious dart master's superb martial arts and vicious methods, he thought that his martial arts were definitely not his opponent. So, he remembered those pages of cheats again. From then on, he began to secretly study the martial arts on the fragment every day. Unexpectedly, a few pages of cheats actually caused him to practice for more than ten years before he became a small success.
"Your father, Mr. Lin, has been looking for you, do you know?" Hearing this, Zhao Weiming couldn't help but interject and asked. Lin Yuantu nodded, "I have already seen my father, he told me that he was rescued by you, and you are also looking for me; because my swordsmanship was not fully practiced at that time, I wanted to go with you to avenge them after finding you." But I searched all over the rivers and lakes, not only did I not find the clue of the mysterious dart master, but also did not find out the whereabouts of Wang Yuanheng! During this period, I did not forget to take revenge for a moment, and in desperation, I took leave of absence from the old abbot on the grounds of going back to my hometown to find my relatives, and lived on the island where my father was previously imprisoned, hoping to find the original perpetrator here. Lin Yuantu said in a fit of anger.
'Then how did you know that we were here to get rid of the thief and show up in time?' Zhao Weiming asked. Lin Yuantu paused and said, "In the past few days, I have found that several groups of characters from the rivers and lakes have appeared in this area, and I am sure that something must have happened here; After listening, Zhao Weiming thought of his aunt Lin Zhen'er who died in vain, and a huge pain immediately surged in his heart. This is really 'old people don't know each other, and they are all dreamers!'
As he was talking, Master Fang Zheng and Lingxu Dao Master had already walked closer, 'Little monk, which temple are you placing an order in, and what are you called?' Master Fang Zheng asked. Seeing Zhao Weiming saluting the two, Lin Yuantu also hurriedly and respectfully saluted and replied, "The little monk Mingxin is now a monk of Hanshan Temple. ''Although the sword technique you just cast is extremely exquisite, it is not at all like the martial arts of Buddhism; "Back to the predecessors, this swordsmanship is my family's peerless learning, because it is taken from the meaning of subduing demons and subduing demons, so it is called 'swordsmanship to ward off evil spirits'!" Lin Yuantu replied.
A few days later, Zhao Chengzong sent someone to take Zhao Weiming to the capital and told him that after several days of interrogation in Dali Temple, Wang Jien, a golden-faced man, had completely explained the ins and outs of the whole matter. He will be punished soon!
When asked about the reason again, it turned out that when Wang Jien served Taizu back then, he was shrewd and capable at the beginning, and he was also quite popular with Zhao Kuangyin, but later because he was too calculating, he was often reprimanded by Taizu. This made Wang Jien hold a grudge and often feel precarious. Later, Taizu died violently. Wang Jien was secretly happy, for the sake of his own future, he violated Queen Song's will to invite his son Zhao Dezhao into the palace, but went to the mansion of Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, and discussed with the king of Jin so much.
After Zhao Guangyi succeeded to the throne, he did rely on Wang Jien a lot at the beginning. But as time passed, Taizong remembered Taizu's previous evaluation of Wang Jien, plus the impeachment of some important ministers of the court; In desperation, Emperor Taizong demoted Wang Jien to a concubine and drove him out of the palace. Unexpectedly, at that time, Wang Jien was secretly studying the relics of Taizu before, and accidentally found a martial arts secret book "Sunflower Treasure Book" written by the eunuchs of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Seeing that it was hopeless to return to the court, he started to think of becoming king in the rivers and lakes. As a result, he practiced the martial arts on the Sunflower Book more diligently. After a few years of practicing without sleeping and eating, the martial arts on the "Sunflower Treasure Book" were indeed completely practiced by him.
After many years, after the Wanxian Gang that he had painstakingly managed began to take shape, he began to transport a large number of 'Taizu Books' that had been smuggled out of the palace many years ago to his headquarters in Zhanlu Mountain. However, the past of helping Zhao Guangyi and Li Dai Taozhuang made it difficult for him to sleep and eat all the time. While hating Zhao Guangyi for being ungrateful, he was always worried that Taizu's descendants would come to him to settle accounts. So, after pondering and meditating, he had a poisonous plan: while wantonly slaughtering the descendants of Taizu, he would blame Taizong for the same lineage, hoping to provoke a fight within the royal family so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman. Things are indeed as he wanted, many years have passed, not only have he not seen Taizu's descendants go to seek revenge, but even the imperial court seems to have completely forgotten him, the deposed person. However, the desire is difficult to fill after all. Just when the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Gang' had become famous, he started the idea of becoming the king of the dynasty and bowing down to the ministers.
