Chapter 9: Master Huiyun

To see Master Huiyun, the abbot of Shaolin, Qin Yi originally wanted to leave a letter for his master and fifth uncle. But he thought that whether it was the old couple who left the letter to the housekeeper or Li Rugang, if the letter fell into the hands of someone with bad intentions, it would bring them disastrous consequences. Come to think of it, it's better to let them know nothing.

Before leaving, he told Li Rugang that he was going to go on a long trip. When he was not at home, he asked him to take care of his home, and Li Rugang agreed.

He left a large sum of money for the old couple who took care of the house, and told them that they were going out for a while. They asked what they were doing with so much, how long would it take to spend these silver taels? Qin Yi said, it doesn't matter, be prepared, if you can't spend it, he will continue to spend it when he comes back. Qin Yi told them that if the fifth uncle came back and asked him where he was going, he would tell him that he had gone to Songshan to play.

When he was about to go out, he asked the old man what he would say if someone he didn't know asked about the owner? The old man thought for a moment and said that they didn't know anything.

Qin Yi said: "It's better to say whatever you know." You already know very little, and if you seem to be trying to hide something, it will make people think that you know everything, and it will cause you trouble. ”

The old man said that he was a janitor, what trouble could there be? Qin Yi said that the world is unpredictable, and there is nothing wrong with being careful in everything. Told them to do what they said, and although the old man was puzzled and reluctant, he agreed seriously.

A few days later, Qin Yi came to Songshan Shaolin Temple. Qin Yi said to the porter that he had something important to see Master Huiyun, the abbot of Shaolin. The porter said that the abbot was busy with affairs, and there were many people who wanted to see him, and not everyone could see him. Let him tell the reason for the incident, and they will report it, and whether they can meet the abbot or not, will decide.

Qin Yi thought for a while, took out the Buddhist bead bracelet that the master gave him, and handed it to the porter, saying that it would be okay to show it to the abbot.

The porter took the bracelet and told Qin Yi to wait. The effort was not great, the porter came back, didn't say anything, and took Qin Yi to see the abbot in a hurry.

The abbot looked like an amiable old man, and he took Qin Yi to a secret room.

After sitting down, someone brought tea. The abbot told the person who delivered the water to go out and close the door, and not to disturb him unless there was anything particularly important.

When there were only two of them left, the abbot looked at Qin Yi with a deep gaze, "Donor, may I ask who are you my junior brother Huiyu?"

"Senior brother, my master is the master, your junior brother?" Qin Yi had never heard that the master was a Shaolin disciple.

The abbot nodded, "So you're my junior brother's apprentice?"

"Yes, Master. Qin Yi said, took out an oilcloth bag from his body, opened it and took out the secret book, and handed it to the abbot.

"Master, you should have heard that I am deeply guilty, this is the secret book I stole from Master, I thought ......"

Qin Yi had already thought of his words on the way, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Master Huiyun.

"Donor, you didn't steal your master's cheats, please tell the truth. ”

Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, "Master, you...... How do you know?"

"The donor's eyes are clear, and he is by no means a treacherous person, besides, if you steal the secret book, how can your master give you this bracelet and let you know that you can use this bracelet to find me. If I guessed correctly, you should want to help your master?"

Qin Yi thought secretly in his heart, he was not the abbot of Shaolin, a generation of grandmasters, and he couldn't hide anything from him.

"Master, my master is your junior brother, so he should be a Shaolin disciple, so why did he leave Shaolin Temple?"

"It's hard to believe, even unbelievable, but it's true. At that time, our master, that is, my predecessor's abbot, wanted to pass on his mantle, that is, the position of abbot, to my junior brother, that is, your master. Your master resolutely refused, but the things set by the master cannot be changed, and your master fled from my Shaolin Temple because of this.

"When Shizun was there, he kept his name incognito. When your master left, he left a letter for his master. He said that he was too persistent, lacked modesty, was not flexible, and was really immoral and incompetent to run Shaolin, and tried his best to recommend me to Shizun. When the master passed away, the person he wanted to see the most was your master, and he told me more than once that Huiyu was a true lover. By the way, how is my junior brother?"

Qin Yi told Master Huiyun that he hadn't seen his master for a long time, and also introduced the master's recent upheaval and lack of a fixed residence

"You want your master to live a stable life, don't you?" Huiyun asked. Seeing Qin Yi nodded, Huiyun then asked, "The donor is looking for me?"

"The master is a martial arts master, and he is highly respected, I want you to be a witness, the secret book is in my hands, and it has nothing to do with my master. ”

Huiyun picked up the cheats and said with emotion: "Yes, that's it, there is no cover." ”

"The master has seen this cheat?"

"Yes, more than ten years ago, my junior brother asked me to study. ”

"That's the best, when I came, I was still worried, how to prove that this is the legendary martial arts cheats. Okay now, the cheats are here, can the master be a witness for me?" Qin Yi breathed a long sigh of relief.

"You are your master's apprentice, is there a difference between the cheats in your hands and in his hands?

"But if I stole my master's cheats, it's different?" Qin Yi was confident.

But Huiyun shook his head, "You stole your master's cheats, and the first thing you did was to hide it deep enough to avoid being tracked by your master and many martial arts people. Why did you run to Shaolin Temple and let me witness that the cheats are in your hands, unless you are insane. ”

Qin Yi just wanted to do something for his master, but he didn't expect things to be so complicated, and he couldn't help but admit that Master Huiyun had a point.

"Master, my master is so pitiful, I must help him, please show me the way. ”

Huiyun didn't answer, picked up the cheatbook and put it on the table, and asked Qin Yi, "Have you practiced?"

"I've practiced it. Qin Yi didn't even think about answering. After a brief encounter with the master, he already felt that the master was open-minded, and he did not want to hide anything from the master.

"How's the situation?" asked Huiyun with concern.

Qin Yi shook his head, "There is also discomfort. But compared to my master, I practiced a little longer, and I practiced a little more. And my symptoms are completely different from my master's, my master's chest is hot, my hands and feet are cold, somehow?"

"It's normal because people have different physiques. ”

"Master, I've always been unable to figure it out, they are all the same people, why are there differences in physique?"

It's hard to answer, but you see that everyone is human, just talk about what they look like, and everyone is different. So we can also distinguish people according to their appearance and posture. This person is Zhang San, that person is Li Si, and that person is Wang Er.

"The appearance should be almost certain when a person is born, so I am afraid that the parents will be the first to receive the difference in people's physique. In addition, different living environments, different foods eaten, and even different personalities and hobbies may have an impact on one's physique. ”

"Is it so complicated? Then I'm going to eat something like this today, and I'm going to eat something else the other day. Will your physique change?"

"The impact is definitely there, but the change will not be so fast, it may take a long, long time. For example, have you ever seen ordinary deer and giraffes?" Seeing Qin Yi nodding, Huiyun continued, "I sometimes think that they may have been the same creatures. In a small place, the deer have eaten up the grass on the ground, and some deer may raise their heads and eat the branches and leaves in order to survive. If you finish eating in the low place, you have to run to the high place, and you need to stretch your neck. The branches and leaves of the trees are different from the grass on the ground, and the grass with your head down is different from eating the trees with your head up, and perhaps an ordinary deer has cultivated into a giraffe. Of course, this will not be done overnight, and it will definitely take a long, long time. ”

"Does any martial art require a physique?" Qin Yi asked.

"Not really, some martial arts can be practiced by all people, but this kind of martial arts is generally used by ordinary people to strengthen their bodies and will not achieve great achievements, while some martial arts are only suitable for a certain number of people. For example, some martial arts are only suitable for women, some are only suitable for men, and some martial arts can only be practiced by children.

"Generally speaking, the more superior the martial arts, the higher the requirements for human characteristics. Like this martial art, after practice, it will definitely be able to reach a very high level, so it may be more demanding on people's physiques. ”

This means that for many people, this cheatbook is not only useless, but harmful. Qin Yi asked again.

"That's how it should be. Master Huiyun nodded, pointed to the cheats and continued: "However, how many people want to get this cheats when they dream! Your master seems to be lucky to get this secret book by accident, but it has become the greatest misfortune. For more than ten years, I have been hiding in Tibet and have endured all the hardships, all thanks to this secret book. ”

"It's better to destroy such a harmful thing. Qin Yi said hatefully.

"Other people can't practice, maybe someone can, and it's a pity to destroy the things that our ancestors have worked so hard to accumulate. ”

"Then we will copy many, many copies of this secret book and spread it widely. Qin Yi said.

"That's what I meant back then, but your master said that I don't know how many people will be harmed like this? I told him, then he will never have peace. He said that he does not go to hell who does. After listening to his words, I understood why the master must pass on the position of abbot to the junior brother, and the high character of the junior disciple is far beyond my generation. ”

"Then it's up to me to go to hell for my master now!" Qin Yi said excitedly.

"How can you take your master's place? You can't walk down the street and see people and say, 'The secret book is here?'

"Is there a way for the master to make an announcement to convince people that the secret book is in my hands? No matter what kind of infamy and pain I have to bear, I am willing. Qin Yi was almost pleading.

Huiyun didn't speak for a long time, he seemed to be thinking hard, and finally shook his head.

"Then I'll figure it out myself! I think I can always figure it out. With that, Qin Yi got up and prepared to leave.

Huiyun waved his hand, "Don't worry, don't worry, let Lao Wei think about it again and see if there is a perfect plan." ”
