Chapter 237: The Wind and Clouds Change, the Rivers and Lakes Rise
"Come on, come on, two distinguished guests, please come in quickly. ”
Down the mountain road, along a quiet path, Cui Shiyuan and Huikong monk came to the hut under the guidance of Gongye Jinghong, and when they got inside, Lin Yi Xiaotong had already set up a vegetarian meal, standing there respectfully, smiling and greeting.
As soon as he saw these many serious dishes, Cui Shiyuan's Five Organs Temple couldn't bear it, after all, a young man like him, if there were no three or four steamed buns to support him, where could he eat enough.
Before, I watched them play chess leisurely on the top of the mountain, and I had been greatly wronged, but now that the food is present, how can I live up to the wishes of others? I swallowed the saliva in my mouth violently, and rolled up my sleeves to be a storm, and the Huikong monk who watched it frowned, but it was not good to say anything.
Gongye was shocked and knew that because of his whim, he could make this child hungry enough, so he hurriedly instructed Lin Yi, who was waiting on the side, to pour tea and water for him, and choked.
"How about Shaoxia, the coarse tea and light rice in my country house still meet your appetite?"
"Well, yes, yes. Cui Shiyuan was busy filling his stomach, and at the same time casually said a few perfunctory words, in his opinion, at such a critical moment, it would be disrespectful to the food to say more.
In order to alleviate the current embarrassing situation, after Monk Huikong tasted a bite of the food, he said to Gongye Jinghong, "The old hero took such pains to lead the two of us up the mountain, I'm afraid it's not just for a meal, right?"
"Hahaha, Master Huikong is worthy of being one of the three famous monks of Shaolin, and he really can't hide anything from your eyes. Gongye said with a hearty smile, thinking that now that he has had to tell the details.
"The old man set up the game this time, nothing more than two things, one is that the day Luo chess game, the master has been quite accomplished in chess, admired for a long time, and accidentally heard the apprentice come to report, saying that you have come here, so I moved my thoughts, and I hope that the monk Duoduo Haihan will be offended. ”
Speaking of this, Gongye Jinghong stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to Monk Huikong. Out of courtesy, Huikong also stood up immediately, stood on his chest with one palm and saluted back, "Amitabha, where is it, the old hero is serious." ”
In fact, if you dig deeper, the two of them had a relationship at the Heroes Meeting thirty years ago, but at that time, the two of them were troubled by some trivial matters in their hands, so it was inconvenient for them to sit down and talk for a long time like today.
"The second thing is to talk to the master about the troubled times in the world, and see if he can get a sentence or two of Buddhism from the monk with the foolish opinion of the old man, and he will benefit for life. ”
Although this Gongye Jinghong said it without shock, in the eyes of Monk Huikong, it was obvious that there was something in the words, but for the time being, I didn't know what he wanted to metaphorize, and if I wanted to figure it out, I still needed to be patient and continue to listen to him.
In order to lead him to the Yellow Dragon, Monk Huikong smiled slightly and said, "Since the old hero said this, he must have a unique opinion on this world, and the poor monk is willing to hear about it." ”
Monk Huikong picked up the cup as he spoke, drank all the fragrant tea in it, and then naturally left his eyes on Gongye Jinghong, just to see what he was going to do next.
"I don't know if the master has heard recently, when the pilgrimage has issued a desperate order, sent three people to swear to exterminate the people in the martial arts, Han Taichong Han's Kunlun faction has been slaughtered by the official army, and the remaining major factions such as Wudang, Emei, Huashan, and Kongtong are also in danger. Dare to ask you, as a pure place of Buddhism, what do you think about this matter?"
The Great Monk Huikong, who originally looked indifferent, immediately changed his face when he heard him say this, and asked in disbelief, "Old hero, the stakes are very high, but is this source accurate?"
"It's true, the old decay has been verified. Gongye stared at him with his hands twisted into his beard, and his eyes were full of meaning.
"How did it develop like this? It seems that the poor monk is still a step late. "Monk Huikong went down the mountain this time and traveled all over the world to say it, but in fact, he came to investigate the murder case that was rumored to be rampant. Now that I heard what Gongye said in shock, it was what I was most worried about, but it still happened.
"Master, don't be busy with chagrin, this whole thing is very strange according to what I have seen, since Taizong rejuvenated the country, our martial arts people have also contributed a lot to the imperial court openly and secretly, why did you get to the point where you are now forbidden by force? There must be traitors in it. ”
When Cui Shiyuan heard this, he wiped his mouth, grabbed the topic and said, "Do you need to talk about this, it must be a ghost from the Flying Star Pavilion." Who doesn't know that these guys are doing evil in the rivers and lakes, doing all kinds of evil, and it is not clear that the important ministers of the court who died tragically one after another before were all done by these guys. ”
Monk Huikong was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to remember something, and instantly fell into deep thought.
For Cui Shiyuan's rude behavior, Gongye Jinghong was a little unhappy, but he didn't care about him when he said the truth, and continued to say to Monk Huikong, "The Shaolin faction is an authentic family, the Taishan Beidou of martial arts, and is kind to the royal family, if you want to turn the tide, the old man feels that you have to rely on the master in the end." ”
"Does the old hero mean that I should start investigating this matter?" Hearing him mention his sect, Monk Huikong seemed to understand the purpose of Gongye Jinghong's establishment to bring him here this time.
"That's right, this matter is beyond the reach of the master. The old man was also quite suspicious of the Flying Star Pavilion that the young man said, and the key to solving this catastrophe was to start from here. ”
"Amitabha, the poor monk is also going to the city of Yuzhou to take a trip to resolve the conflict between the Flying Star Pavilion and the dragon servants. Now that there is another such thing, I have combined the two in one place and done it together. ”
Gongye Jinghong saw that he agreed to come down, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the overall situation, it is naturally best to deal with this matter as a monk of Huikong. It's just that I'm afraid there will be a lot of changes in this, and I'm afraid that there will inevitably be a bloody storm at that time.
"Cui Shaoxia, let's set off now, right?" Monk Huikong, who was very worried about the various factions of the martial arts, couldn't wait for a moment, in his opinion, the only way to solve this sharp contradiction at present was to find a suspicious person first, and then hand it over to the imperial court, and with the gold medal on his body, he might be able to forcibly resolve this catastrophe.
"Master Fu stay, how to say that the Flying Star Pavilion also has some names in the rivers and lakes, and there are many masters like clouds, especially their pavilion master Yunzhong swordsman Xia Bufan is even more swordsmanship, I am afraid that it will not be possible to rely on the two of you alone. ”
