Under the leadership of Zen Master Zhishan in Shaolin Temple, the monks of the temple are united and hateful, vowing to drive Cui Chengxiu and his thieves out of the Buddhist temple. At the second watch of the night, all the tunnels down the mountain were opened, and Fa Xiang took more than a dozen disciples of Dharma Hall down the mountain to defend against the enemy.

Lu Si and Cui Chengxiu drank happily, and they were unconscious and distracted. When the law probe looked up, there was silence in the Jinyi guard camp, and only one patrol guard was patrolling back and forth in the watchtower with a dejected expression. The enemy let down his vigilance, and it was a good time to sneak attack.

Fa Xiang jumped up to the tower with light skills and lit up the guard's acupoint. Then he shook the torch, and the monks got the message to kill the Jinyi guard. The sound of shouting and killing woke up Cui Chengxiu in Zhuang Shengxiao's dream, and he pulled out the embroidered spring knife and walked out of the camp. Lu Si heard the sound of shouting and killing in his sleep, and rolled from the couch to the ground with a bang. The sergeant walked up to Cui Chengxiu with a panicked expression and said, "The commander is not good, and the monks of Shaolin Temple broke into the camp at night. We can't resist it. ”

Cui Chengxiu stared at the goldfish eyes, the angry green tendons were violent, he kicked the Jinyi guard down, grinned at him and said, "If you dare to speak out to incite the army, I will cut off your head." What are you doing here?"

Lu Si came to Cui Chengxiu's side with a worried face, and he said viciously: "Lord Cui, these bald donkeys are too deceitful, and they brought Shenwei cannons to bombard them. Cui Chengxiu opened her fangs and nodded in agreement.

After the Shenwei cannon was carried out, there were swords and swords everywhere, and the monks and brocade guards were entangled together. The soldiers stood behind the cannon and could not fire at all. Lu Si's evil thoughts suddenly rose, and he said to Cui Chengxiu: "Master Cui, capture the thief and capture the king first, and kill the bald donkey in the robe." ”

Cui Chengxiu saw that Fa Xiang was surrounded by everyone, and if he fired a cannon, Jinyiwei would inevitably be shattered. When he was hesitating, Lu Si's wolf teeth moved sharply, and he said with a fierce face: "Master Cui, those who achieve great things are not informal, and they will kill this leader and kill the sharp spirit of Shaolin Temple." ”

The two thieves colluded and ordered the soldiers to open artillery to bombard the Faxiang. When the soldier saw that Lu Si was about to harm his own people, his hands trembled with anger. Lu Si glanced back at him, and when he saw that the soldier was reluctant to make a move, he stepped forward and slapped the soldier twice. scolded in his mouth: "Useless idiot, don't let me get out of the way." "With that, light the fuse and aim at the Faxiang.

The waning moon shone brightly, and a strange smile appeared on Lu Si's face, and when Hui Jue saw that he was about to fire a cannon, his palms flew thunder, dispersing the brocade guards who were blocking him. He made a leap of the dragon, rushed to the front of the Shenwei cannon, and flew up to kick the muzzle of the cannon.

The sharply burning fuse shone with dazzling sparks, which quickly burned to the bottom. Lu Si found that the cannon was heading in the direction of the barracks, and he was so frightened that he was out of his mind and flashed to the side with a cloud of smoke. After hearing the thunderbolt-like sound, a barracks instantly turned into misty clouds.

The hand of the law minister Qianye is like a faint flower, making the brocade guard unguardable. In the blink of an eye, the besiegers around him all lost the strength to fight back. He said to Hui Jue, who was standing in front of the Shenwei Cannon, "Hui Jue, why is there a raging fire behind you?"

Hui Jue said: "Uncle Faxiang, someone was about to bombard you just now, but I took the lead and removed the muzzle. ”

Dharma Xiang clasped his hands together and recited, "Amitabha, good, good." He glared at Hui and turned around to command the monks to capture Lu Si and Cui Chengxiu. Lu Si took out the fire thunder bead from his arms, and after a puff of smoke rose, he and Cui Chengxiu disappeared.

The tree fell and scattered, and the remaining Jinyi guards escaped and surrendered, and the law ordered the monks to destroy the Shenwei cannon, and escorted the surrendered Jinyi Wei back to the temple to report the victory. Seeing that the Dharma was victorious, none of the monks led by Zhishan Zen Master were injured, and he couldn't stop praising him. Fa Xiang's eyes narrowed, and his dark face couldn't hide his joy.

Then Zen Master Zhishan said: "Strategizing is the key to victory, this time Huijue came up with this strange plan, resolved the crisis of the temple, should be credited with the first credit." Zen Master Zhiqing said modestly: "Senior brother, we have brought trouble to Southern Shaolin, what is the credit." ”

Zen Master Zhishan said: "Senior brother, we are in the same vein, can it be that when I see that the ancient temple of Kapok is in trouble, will I sit idly by? Rescue and problem solving cannot be compared, and Huijue has really made great contributions to this temple." ”

After speaking, Zen Master Zhishan called Huijue to his side and asked him some things about before he was shaved. After learning about his life experience, Zen Master Zhishan said: "Amitabha, I didn't expect that after Huijue was loyal and good, although Lao Gao was a person who turned into an outsider, he should also think of Li Min's life. I have the heart to send Huijue to the Dharma Hall to practice martial arts, and in the future to help his brother get rid of thieves and destroy criminals, and it will not be in vain for my Buddha's purpose to subdue demons and eliminate demons. ”

The abbot opened Chrysostom, and the other Zen masters also agreed. The brothers also sent congratulations to Huijue, encouraging him to practice martial arts diligently when he arrived at Motang, and lived up to the painstaking cultivation of his master and uncle.

At this time, there was only one person among the monks who was dissatisfied with the decision of Zen Master Zhishan, and this person was the Dharma Minister. He secretly pondered: "What is the outstanding point of this Huijue, which can make Zen Master Zhiqing have a good eye for him, and once he enters this temple, he shows himself everywhere, so that the senior brother takes good care of him." Now that he has entered this Dharma Hall, once he has learned advanced martial arts, will there still be a foothold for me as the first seat at that time?"

Fa Xiang stood silently to the side and pondered, and Zen Master Zhishan's eyes were bright, and he saw that Fa Xiang's face seemed to be unwilling. He said to Fa Xiang: "Senior Brother Fa Xiang, you are the first seat of the Dharma Hall, what do you think of Huijue's entry into the Dharma Hall to study martial arts?"

Fa Xiang first praised Huijue and praised him for his wit and courage in the face of the enemy. Immediately, he changed his words, and his words implicitly refused Huijue's admission to the Dharma Hall to study. Zen Master Zhishan said in a calm tone: "Senior brother, since Huijue is a manufacturable material, why do you deny it in your words?"

Senior Brother Zhishan asked, and the Fa Xiang told Zen Master Zhishan about Huijue's bombardment of the camp. He thinks that Huijue is too angry, and he is not suitable to enter the Dharma Hall. As soon as these words came out, several disciples of the Dharma Hall expressed their opinion that the Dharma Minister was ungrateful, and they said to Zhishan Zen Master: "Abbot, the words of the Dharma Master are biased, and at that time, the situation was extremely critical, and Hui Jue did not have time to think about it in order to save the Master. The bombardment of the Jinyi Wei barracks was definitely not Huijue's original intention. ”

Seeing that his disciple's elbow turned outward, he actually helped the monks of the outer temple to count him, he opened his eagle eyes and glared fiercely at the disciple who spoke. The disciples stepped aside, silent and silent.

Zen Master Zhishan nodded, and he said to Hui Jue: "Hui Jue, you have recklessly moved to kill, against my Buddha's precepts, and now I will punish you to the precept institute to recite scriptures and copy texts for 100 days, can you be convinced?" ”

If you have merit, you will not be rewarded, but you will be punished. The monks expressed sympathy for Hui Jue, and a sneer appeared on the corner of the Prime Minister's mouth, and he looked very proud when he saw Hui Jue being punished in the precept institute. Zen Master Zhishan looked at the fire and saw every move of the Dharma Xiang clearly.

It is said that Huijue chanted sutras and worshiped the Buddha in the precept institute, and sincerely accepted the reform. Before you know it, a hundred days have passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, Zen Master Zhishan called Huijue to him, pointed to a pair of verses on the wall and said: "The body is a Bodhi tree, the heart is like a mirror platform, always diligently wipe, don't make dust." After that, Zen Master Zhishan asked Huijue, can he understand the mystery of the verses?

Huijue put his palms together and bowed to Zen Master Zhishan. He said: "Uncle Abbot, this verse is well written, but there is a feeling that my wish has not been fulfilled. ”

Zen Master Zhishan said kindly, "You try to change it." Huijue said: "Bodhi has no tree, the mirror is not a platform, there is nothing originally, where to stir up dust." ”

Zen Master Zhishan nodded and chuckled, praising Huijue for having a lot of wisdom. Then he summoned a young monk and ordered him to ring the bell outside and summon the monks to the Mahavira Hall. Hui Jue asked, "Uncle Abbot, it's past the morning recitation time. Zen Master Zhishan smiled without saying a word, and asked Huijue to follow him to the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

The monks gathered in the main hall, Zhishan Zen Master asked Huijue to go down to listen, and the Fa Xiang saw that the senior brother and Huijue came out one after another, and began to mumble in his heart again. He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, so now he could only wait and see what happened, and then think of a way to deal with it.

Zen Master Zhishan got straight to the point and asked Fakong to inform the monks of Huijue's performance in the Vinaya Academy. The monks already had a good impression of Hui Jue, and coupled with his humble acceptance of punishment, their admiration for him deepened.

After Fakong finished talking about Huijue's performance, Zen Master Zhishan asked the monks if they were satisfied with Huijue's performance? The monks said in unison: "Huijue knows that mistakes can be corrected, and it is really commendable to accept them sincerely. ”

Zen Master Zhishan pushed the boat down the river and told the story of Huijue's understanding of Shenxiu's words, and the monks praised in unison. At this time, it was the only Dharma Minister, who was depressed, and his face was red and purple, like a frosted eggplant.

Zen Master Zhishan turned his face to the Dharma Xiang, and still said with a pleasant face: "Senior brother, Huijue has been ordained sincerely, can you send him to Dharma Hall to practice now?"

Thinking of this, Fa Xiang also swept away the clouds on his face, and he secretly calculated in his heart: "Today, I will temporarily fulfill my senior brother's will and let you enter the Dharma Hall." Teach you there, it's not something I can do as I please?"

Therefore, for the old matter of Zen Master Zhishan again, Fa Xiang happily agreed. He did this to make it difficult to restrain Huijue, and secondly, to test the mind of Zen Master Zhishan, he wanted to see if Huijue entered the Dharma Hall, what chess would the senior brother take next?

The evil thoughts of the law are reckless, and I am afraid that there will be a storm in Southern Shaolin. The good intentions of Zen Master Zhishan will eventually turn into a bubble.
