Volume 2 The Beginning and End of the Martial Arts League Chapter 158 Critical
1.
Vajra Demon Suppression.
I had heard this name in the mouth of Yuan Zhi in Shaolin Temple. I don't know what's going on, but I know that it might be in Yuantong's hands.
It's just that YTO has now disappeared without a trace, and there is nowhere to be found.
I asked Sharma, "Have you ever been to the Shaolin Temple?"
Sharma chewed a mouthful full of chicken and said indistinctly, "I've been there." The Shaolin Temple is gone. Moreover, the Po Ye Jin Shen Gong was no longer in Shaolin Temple more than 200 years ago. ”
I said, "No way." It should be in the Yuantong. ”
Sharma's eyes lit up and he asked, "Who is Yuantong?" and where is he?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know." ”
Sharma stuffed another piece of drunken chicken into his mouth, skillfully spit out the bone, and said, "Back then, Master Gu Ye snatched out the Po Ye Jin Body Gong, and he has long since disappeared. ”
I asked, "Why did he rob the Po Ye Jin Gong?"
Sharma took two bites, leaned over to me and whispered, "It's another secret." ”
I asked, "What's the secret?"
Sharma's white eyes rolled in the black sockets, and he said in a low voice, "When Master Gu Ye came to the Great Song Dynasty, he got the wrong secret book. He gave a copy of the Maha Bowl Temo Mantra to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty as a golden body gong of the Buddha Leaf. It is an extremely cold internal skill of the Eight Cold Hells, a forbidden book of Tianzhu Buddhism, and no matter who practices it, it will go crazy. ”
"Damn!" I couldn't help myself, and exclaimed, "You can get such an important book wrong!
Sharma spread his hands and said, "I think so too, but that's the way it is, and as a descendant, I have no right to comment." ”
I asked, "Then why did you come to that book more than 200 years later?"
Sharma said: "Because I only found out three years ago that the Maha Bowl Temo Mantra could not be found, and after checking for more than half a year, I found out that it was brought to the Great Song Dynasty by Master Gu Ye. We originally thought that Master Gu Ye did this on purpose, but yesterday I found Master Gu Ye's suicide note in the Stone Buddha Temple, and I realized that he had taken the wrong book back then. ”
I said, "So Master Gu Ye snatched that book from the Shaolin Temple?"
Sharma nodded and said, "Yes." Master Gu Ye found out that he had taken the wrong book and went to the Great Song Emperor to ask for it, but the Great Song Emperor did not believe him, and the Shaolin Temple did not believe him. So he snatched the book out and wanted to send it back to Tianzhu. As a result, halfway through, he was beaten to death by the Shaolin King Kong Eighteen Arhats. Before he died, Master Gu Ye hid the book, but I don't know where he hid it. ”
It is no wonder that such an ancient temple as a royal temple has been dilapidated to this point. Perhaps Emperor Taizu was dissatisfied with Master Gu Ye's snatching of the Po Ye Jin Gong, but he didn't want to be known about the theft of the secret book, so he claimed that he suddenly contracted a serious illness and died violently, and symbolically built a temple to hide people's eyes.
I said, "You're looking for a needle in a haystack." ”
Sharma said to me righteously, "Then you have to look for it." The Maha Bowl Mantra is too powerful to fall into the hands of others. ”
On a whim, I asked, "What if you can't find it in your life?"
Sharma looked at me in a daze, his expression was very sincere, and he said firmly: "I'll come back in the next life." ”
I smiled and said, "The Buddha taught people to let go of delusional attachments, and your attachments are too heavy." ”
Sharma said: "I am going through the suffering of the world, and I am a practice, not an obsession. ”
2.
At the end of August of the fifteenth year of Shaoxing.
Guan Tianxia controlled the whole of Jiangxi. After two months of quelling the rebellion, the imperial army has been completely defeated, but what is shocking is that the civil and military officials in various places are quite dignified, and none of them have taken refuge in the world.
Back then, when Jin Bing went south, I don't know how many people were not humiliated and turned against him. Only twenty years have passed since the Jingkang Revolution, and the officials of the imperial court seem to have suddenly gained backbone.
Or do they despise the world in their hearts, and like Chen Boyang, they believe that the world is just a gang of thieves, and it is difficult to become a big tool?
Even so, the court has become ants on a hot pot. The emperor issued two edicts in succession, ordering Fuzhou to pacify Xue Bi and organize the army on the spot to block the southward movement of the army in charge of the world.
According to folk rumors, after Xue Bi received the holy decree, he immediately submitted a report that someone was secretly provoking the trouble in the world, and asked the court to issue an edict to recruit peace, and strictly investigate the person who caused the accident.
The person responsible for the accident referred to by Xue Bishu is undoubtedly me.
When I heard this rumor, I almost panicked to the extreme. I had a vague sense that a great calamity awaited me. Perhaps, only with my life can this turmoil be quelled.
But...... Why?
I can't help but feel ridiculous, angry, and aggrieved...... It's only a matter of time before the world rebels, and I just pierced this layer of window paper earlier, so that the world was forced to do it in advance.
When I arrived at Lujia Villa, it was early September.
At this time, the weather is still a little hot and humid during the day, and at night, the mountain wind is cold and cold, like ice and bones, which is unbearable.
I brought Sharma to Lujia Villa.
I told him that there might be news of the Bhamyejin body here.
Although, Lu Shi intercepted and killed Yuanxin, there is a secret that I still can't unravel, and even this secret is related to Yuantong and Vajra Demon Suppression. However, I'm not sure.
I took Sharma with me, but I felt lonely and wanted someone to talk to.
At night, the wind howls.
Sharma shivered and said, "It's too cold." ”
I asked, "Is Tianzhu cold?"
Sharma said: "Tianzhu is not cold, it is very warm. ”
I knocked on the door of the Lujia Villa, and the sound of the knock was carried into the courtyard by the wind. After a while, a little boy dressed in gray opened the door, he rubbed his sleepy eyes with his round head, and his voice was full of childishness, and asked, "Who is the gentleman?
I asked, "Is Satsuki here?"
The little boy scratched his head, lifted the lantern in his hand and shone it on me, and then on Sharma, and then shook his wit, threw the lantern in his hand and ran away, shouting as he ran: "Master, Master, come a black-faced goblin." ”
Sharma smiled awkwardly, revealing his white teeth again. I shook my head helplessly and smiled bitterly, so I had to enter the Lujia Villa uninvited.
As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he suddenly heard a terrible cry from the depths of the courtyard. Then I saw the little boy running back with his face covered in blood.
When he ran up to me, he stumbled and fell at my feet, never to get up again.
I hurriedly lifted him up. The moment I came into contact with his body, I only felt as if I had touched a piece of ice that would not melt through the ages, and my limbs were stiff and extremely cold to the bone.
But the boy was not dead, his soft eyelashes were covered with a layer of white frost, and the blood from his mouth had coagulated and shone brightly.
Blood freezes!
My heart shook like a heavy blow. I don't know what kind of terrible thing happened in this courtyard, which can freeze a living person into an iceman in an instant.
Suddenly, a cold air came from the depths of the courtyard against the wind.
The bitter wind of this autumn night was overshadowed by the strange cold. In the depths of the courtyard, a red light flashed in the gloomy corner, as if a red phantom was flashing from nowhere.
"Maha Temo!" Sharma shouted, immediately clasping his hands over his chest. He moved forward quickly, standing in my way as the red shadow flew in.
"Boom!"
There was a violent crashing sound. A chilling, bitter cold wind spread rapidly from between the two of them.
The ground was frosty white, and the dew on the dead grass condensed into translucent ice crystals.
At that moment, I felt like I had fallen into a valley of snow, surrounded by cold, and the warmth in my body had suddenly dissipated at that moment.
A red ice of blood slipped from the corner of Sharma's mouth.
It dripped on the back of my hand, and it didn't merge at all.
My hands seemed to freeze at that moment, and even my fists felt like my skin was shattered.
Lu Shi was scattered, and the scarlet light in his eyes flickered. He clenched his teeth, and his head shook incessantly, as if in great pain.
I whispered tentatively, "You, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Shi's lips were already purple, and he said tremblingly, "Cold, cold!"
Suddenly, as if he had recovered, Sharma clenched his fists and grabbed Lu Shi's arms, and the moment his swarthy hands touched Lu Shi's arms, a layer of crystal white frost slowly spread on the back of his hand until it covered his hands as white as snow.
Sharma didn't care, his brows furrowed, his mouth twisting Buddha's words, his white teeth flickering like stars as his lips opened and closed. 135 Chinese
......
It felt like a long time.
The cold air slowly dissipated, and the autumn breeze came again, but the original autumn coolness made me feel warm. Lu Shi's expression gradually softened a lot, and the terrifying purple on his lips gradually became a lot more ruddy.
The hoarfrost melted, and a gentle white smoke rose, and Sharma's hands were dark again. He let out a long sigh of relief and opened his eyes, which turned to reveal white eyeballs.
"Thank you!" Lu Shi was relieved, but there was still exhaustion in his voice.
Sharma smiled, his teeth tinged with dark blood. He said, "It turns out that the book is with you." ”
Lu Shi persisted for a while, it still didn't seem to resist the strong exhaustion, his body sank, squatted on the ground, he reached out and touched the little boy lying in the crook of my arm, wiped the blood stains from the corners of his mouth for him, and said to himself: "It's the teacher's fault, it's all the teacher's fault." ”
The boy's eyes were closed and motionless, and although his body was no longer so stiff, he still felt that there was still a chill on his back that had not completely dissipated. I put my hand to his nostrils, and a hot and humid air poured out.
I said, "He's alive." ”
There was a hint of relief on Lu Shi's expression. He looked at me for a moment, and then his eyes flickered, as if there was some secret in his heart that he was afraid that I would see through it.
Sharma squatted down and said, "The Mokbot Mantra will confuse people's minds and cannot be practiced. ”
Lu Shi's eyes were confused, as if he was in shock, and he said, "What kind of Mokba Temo Mantra? I haven't practiced this thing you said. ”
Sharma said, "It's the Bhamye's Golden Body Skill." ”
I corrected, "It's Vajra Demon Suppression." ”
Lu Shi's eyes lit up, and he said coldly, "I don't know what you're talking about!"
Sharma was a little anxious, and he explained, "You are not practicing the real Bhamye Golden Body Skill, and Tianzhu forbids the Book of Moksha Bowl Mantra. Now that you're still practicing the martial arts, you can still save it. If you continue to practice, you will go crazy and die. ”
Sharma's words almost suffocated me with horror. Everything that happened just now is still vivid, and every picture makes my heart palpitate. Such a powerful martial arts, he actually said that it was just a shallow practice?!
If a person practices such martial arts, I don't know what kind of terrifying appearance it will become.
However, Lu Shi is not like me. He sat cross-legged on the ground, breathing, and said, "Today I practiced and went crazy, but fortunately you two helped. When Lu Mou's health is a little better, he will definitely thank him carefully, and the night will be deeper today, so he will not leave the two of them in the house. ”
Lu Shi issued an eviction order. Sharma's face was full of anxiety, and he wanted to continue to persuade him, so I preemptively said, "Is Satsuki here? ”
"Yue'er ......" Lu Shi's eyes were melancholy and fluttering, making me feel faintly uneasy.
I hurriedly asked, "Where is Satsuki, and how is she?"
Lu Shi sighed and said, "Yue'er...... She was ...... "He was halfway through his words, but he stopped talking. I was even more anxious, and grabbed Lu Shi's arm, which was as hard and cold as jade.
I asked, "Where the hell is Satsuki?
After a long time, Lu Shi finally spoke, and he simply said a place name, but it made me suddenly feel like a thunderbolt from the sky, and my heart was like ashes in an instant.
He said, "Marble Prison!"

The horsewhip slammed into the air, making a "popping" sound, like a firecracker explosion in the cold winter at the end of the year.
The horse's hooves were scorching, and the hooves kept beating on the ground, but I couldn't wait for what happened.
Two months ago, it was after the uprising in charge of the world. The hidden forces cultivated by the Shuangdaomen over the years, the peripheral disciples recruited in the martial arts halls in various places, actively responded to the call to govern the world, like a spring breeze blowing overnight, blooming everywhere in Fujian and Jiangxi.
Such a huge move naturally attracted the attention of the imperial court.
Qin Hui, the prime minister of the dynasty, ordered people to strictly investigate the martial arts hall that responded to the rebellion of the world. However, these martial arts halls all point to one person without exception - Xiao Yingru, Xiaoyue's father!
Back then, when Xiaoyue was seriously injured by Chen Boyang, I had a relationship with Xiaoyue's father.
He is not the man of the rivers and lakes. But he is doing business that is closely related to this Jianghu.
The martial arts halls he built in various places are well-known all over the world. The martial artists he hired were all well-known masters in this world.
He worked hard, but he would not have thought that he had already been targeted by the double knife gate. Guan Tianxia sent a close disciple of the Double Sword Sect to change his appearance and infiltrate the martial arts hall of Xiaoyue's father's house as a martial artist.
These people, in the clear sense of the word, are martial artists, teaching martial arts, but in fact, they are secretly accumulating wealth, cultivating power, recruiting cronies, and constantly accumulating strength and pumping blood for the great cause of rebellion in the world.
When the world raised his arms on Tingquan Mountain, almost half of the martial arts halls run by Xiaoyue's father became a den of anti-thieves.
Qin Hui couldn't help but say, and with an order, more than 170 members of the Xiao family were slaughtered.
The fire-like irises are red all over the field, not as fishy as the courtyard of the Xiao family.
Bad news came. Xiao Yue, who was in Lujia Villa, had her liver and intestines broken, she forcibly endured her grief and wiped away her tears, and rushed to Lin'an despite Lu Shi's opposition to the starry night, assassinating Qin Hui to take revenge.
With such an arrogant personality, how can she endure for a moment in the face of such a sea of blood and hatred?
Even though her swordsmanship is superb and her light skills are almost better than many top masters on the rivers and lakes, how can she enter the Qin Mansion, where there are many masters, and cut off the enemy's head?
This time, she must have made up her mind to die.
This time, did she ever think that she would say goodbye to me forever?
Satsuki!
I kept calling her name in my heart. The jade hairpin still waits quietly on my chest for its new owner.
But...... Its owner is already in prison, but I am still stubbornly running around for so many ridiculous things in this world, unaware.
Before leaving, I asked Lu Shi, why didn't you stop Xiao Yue? Why didn't you save Xiao Yue? Why did you hide in the Lu Family Villa to practice this evil skill that harmed others and was not beneficial to yourself, knowing that she was going and never returning?
I couldn't suppress the anger in my heart, and repeatedly asked Lu Shi, is Xiaoyue still your disciple?!
Lu Shi was silent, although his face was full of guilt, but in those eyes like ice, I saw his unrepentant persistence!
Who am I to question?
At the moment of choosing at the fork in the road that day, didn't I also choose the road that ran counter to Lujia Villa without hesitation?
Two months have passed. Satsuki's life and death have become speculation, however, I still can't give up.
Even if that hope is only a tiny drop in the boundless sea.
4.
Lin'an Mansion, Louqin Inn.
When I was now in front of the inn after a long absence, I didn't see Lou Qin's familiar figure.
Luckily, the shiny stake still stood firmly in front of the door, deep into the dirt.
I put the rope on the stake and hurried into the inn.
The guy in the store may have not seen me for a long time, and at the moment of reunion after a long absence, he was stunned for a moment, and asked in a daze: "Guest officer...... It's familiar...... But have you ever been there?"
I had no intention of greeting him, and asked directly, "Where is Sister Lou?"
The shopkeeper suddenly realized, and immediately turned to joy, and said with a smile: "It's Brother Ji who is back, look at my brain......"
I interrupted him sharply and asked, "Where is Sister Lou?!"
The shopkeeper was frightened by my roar, he froze in place, and said tremblingly: "The proprietress has entered the palace and has not come back yet." ”
Zhao Gou!
I suddenly thought of the name and felt a wave of joy in my heart. I used to help him, and he owed me a favor.
Now I have decided not to do anything about the martial arts alliance leader. I'm going to use this favor to beg him to release Satsuki.
If...... If Satsuki is still alive!
She's going to be alive.
I gritted my teeth and insisted, not daring to think anything else. I'm afraid that any thought will delay me for a moment.
I left the shopkeeper who didn't know at a loss, turned around and rushed out of the Louqin Inn, and ran wildly in the direction of the palace.
