In the Mid-Autumn Festival of this year, the temple routinely held an annual Dharma Hall competition, by the abbot and the Dharma Hall, Luohan Hall two first test the martial arts of the disciples of the temple, to check what has entered the country in the past year. The disciples have finished dedicating their skills, and the first Kuzhi Zen master in the Dharma Hall has been promoted to the throne.
Suddenly, a head with hair came out of the crowd and said loudly, Kuzhi Zen Master's words don't make sense, he doesn't know what martial arts are, and he is in the position of the chief of the Dharma Hall, which is very shameful. The monks were shocked, and when they looked at this person, it was a fire foreman who burned under the stove in the incense kitchen. The disciples of the Dharma Hall did not wait for the master to speak, and they had already shouted in unison.
The fire foreman shouted: "Master can't understand bullshit, and disciples don't understand bullshit. As he spoke, he stood in the middle of the hall. All the disciples stepped forward to fight with him one by one, but they were all defeated by him with three punches and two kicks. Originally, the Dharma Hall was tricked, and the same door competed in the arts, and it was from point to point, and everyone was merciful. This fire foreman Tuo shot extremely ruthlessly, he defeated the nine disciples of the Dharma Hall in a row, and the nine monks either broke their arms or broken their legs, and all of them were seriously injured.
The first Kuzhi Zen master was shocked and angry, seeing that all the fire foreman Tuo had learned was the Shaolin faction's own boxing moves, not the masters of other sects who had sneaked into the temple to make trouble, he held back his anger and asked who his martial arts were transmitted.
The fire foreman said, "No one has taught me martial arts, I learned it myself." ”
It turned out that this head was burning a fire under the stove. The monk who supervised the incense soup kitchen was irritable and beat him at every turn, and he had martial arts and was self-respecting. The fire foreman Tuo was beaten three times in three years and vomited blood three times in a row, and he was resentful. secretly went to learn martial arts. The disciples of Shaolin Temple are all good at martial arts, and there are many opportunities to learn boxing tricks. He was bitter and lonely. He also has extraordinary wisdom, and has practiced extremely excellent martial arts in more than 20 years. But he kept it hidden. Still silently burning the fire under the stove, the kitchen monk pulled out his fist and beat him, but he never fought back, but he was already refining his internal strength, and he would never be injured again. This fire foreman was born yin, until he thought that his martial arts had surpassed the monks of the temple, and then he came out to show his skills on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Decades of depression made him hate the monks of the temple. As soon as he made a move, he was merciless.
Zen Master Kuzhi asked the reason, sneered three times, and said, "Your hard work is really respectable!" He got up from his seat and stretched out his hand to compete with him. Kuzhi Zen Master is a master of Shaolin Temple, but first, he is old, the fire foreman Tuo is in the prime of life, and secondly, Kuzhi's subordinates are tolerant, and it is enough to stop, but the fire foreman Tuo is a killer. Therefore, he fought to the outside of the five lilies, and the bitter wisdom side won the battle. When the two dismantled a move "big winding silk", the four arms twisted together. Kuzhi's hands have already pressed on the opponent's chest, and as soon as the internal force is released, the fire foreman Tuo is killed immediately, and there is no room for dismantling. Kuzhi cherished him for his self-study, and he actually had this attainment, and he couldn't bear to hurt his life, so he split his palms and shouted: "Retreat!"
How do you know that the fire foreman Tuo will be wrong, and only say that the other party is using one of the tricks in the "Eight Dozen Divine Palms". This "Eight Dozen Divine Palms" is one of the unique learnings in Shaolin martial arts. He had seen the big disciples of the Dharma Hall make it, and his palms were split. Breaking a wooden stake is not trivial. Although the fire foreman Tuo's martial arts are strong. After all, it is all stealing, not getting the guidance of a famous teacher, Shaolin martial arts are broad and profound, he only secretly peeps, although the time is long, how can he learn it all? The fire foreman Tuo mistakenly regarded it as the sixth palm of the "Eight Dozen Divine Palms", "Splitting Heart Palm", and thought: "You want to take my life, but it is not so easy." "Fly up and pounce, fists in unison.
The power of these two fists surged over like a mountain of seas, and the Kuzhi Zen Master was startled, and hurriedly returned his palms to counter them, but his momentum was too late, but he heard several clicks, and the arm bone of his left arm and the four ribs in front of his chest were broken immediately.
The monks in the audience changed color in panic, and rushed to the rescue together, and they couldn't say a word, because their internal organs had been seriously injured. When I looked at the fire foreman again, he had already fled in the chaos and did not know where to go. That night, Ku Zhi died of his injuries. When the temple was grieving, the fire foreman Tuo stole into the temple again and beat the five monks who supervised the incense soup kitchen and Pingsu to death one by one. Under the earthquake of Hesi, dozens of masters were sent to pursue it, but they searched all over the south and north of the Yangtze River, and there was no trace of it.
The senior monks in the temple even quarreled over this matter and blamed each other. The first Kuhui Zen master of the Luohan Hall left the Western Regions in a rage, creating the Shaolin school in the Western Regions. Shaolin Temple has also set the rules of the temple since then, where the teacher is not allowed to teach and steal martial arts on their own, they will be executed after being found, and the meridians of the whole body will be cut off, making them a wasted person. However, Rao is so, Shaolin Temple after this battle, martial arts have also declined for decades, and the mountain gate has to be closed.
"When Uncle Ku Zhi died, I was still young, and my martial arts were low and difficult to approach, and I didn't see the specific details, and these things were also spread in the temple later. But Senior Brother Lekong is the little disciple of Uncle Kuzhi, not far from the stage, for the tragic death of Uncle Shi, for decades, he has been deeply impressed in his heart, and has always wanted to find the fire foreman Tuo to take revenge. It's a pity that I have visited Shaolin Temple many times over the years, but I have not been able to find a trace, but I just guess that the person may have fled to the Western Regions, the Southern Wilderness and other remote places, but it cannot be verified. Now more than 60 years have passed, and the fire foreman Tuo is estimated to have died a long time ago, and this matter has become a headless public case. Senior brother has not been able to get revenge for this revenge, has been depressed, today he used this trick, not to be relieved, alas! It has even affected the laymen!" said Zen Master Lezhi. He explained to Fang Zhixing in detail, and apologized again, obviously still looking forward to it.
When Fang Zhixing heard about the fire foreman, he also understood a little in his heart, remembered something, and asked Zen Master Lezhi: "Although Shaolin martial arts is a little biased towards the outside family, the foundation should still be the inner family, right? Besides, no matter how powerful the fire foreman Tuo is, he is only one person, and he has no martial arts function to cover everyone in Shaolin, how can he bring much damage to Shaolin, and even force it to close the mountain gate? According to Fang Zhixing's point of view, the reason why the Shaolin Temple is in decline is only because of the majority of internal divisions, and it cannot be entirely blamed on the fire foreman Tuo. However, this is just his speculation, but it is inconvenient to talk to the people in the Shaolin Temple, so he only asks about the fire foreman.
