Chapter 364: A Trip to Shaolin
Songshan Shaomur Mountain is majestic, but the mountain road is a long row of wide stone steps, the scale is magnificent, the project is huge, it is for the Tang Dynasty Gaozong to dig for the Shaolin Temple of Linxing, a total of eight miles long. On this day, a purple-robed Taoist priest suddenly appeared on the mountain road and walked towards the Shaolin Temple on the mountain.
This person is Fang Zhixing, after he and Li Mochou returned from the Western Regions, they said that they wanted to go to Wutai Mountain and Shaolin Temple, but Li Mochou was reluctant to go. After discussion, the two temporarily separated, Li Mochou went back to Zhongnan, and Fang Zhixing went to Wutai Mountain, Shaolin Temple, and then went to Zhongnan Mountain to meet her. By this time, it had been more than a month.
When Fang Zhixing arrived, Master Tanhua was in the temple, and he was also a mouthful of words to participate in the third Huashan sword discussion. Fang Zhixing was invited by him and stayed for a few days before going south to Shaolin and inviting Master Tianming.
Walking up, Fang Zhixing saw five waterfalls on the opposite mountain flying beads splashing jade, rushing down, and then looking down at the mountains, already like ant leeches. Turning a corner along the mountain road, I saw the yellow wall and blue tiles in the distance, and it was a big temple. Seeing this scene, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, Fang Zhixing had been to Shaolin Temple in his previous life, and he had a big battle in it, and when this life first came, he also came to visit, wanting to seek the "Jiuyang True Scripture". However, at that time, the Shaolin Temple was closing the mountain, he was a Taoist atmosphere, and he was not an important person, and he needed to be taken seriously by the Shaolin Temple, so he was invited by the monks guarding the door before entering the temple, which was really not a good experience.
As for whether this trip can invite Master Tianming of Shaolin Temple to participate in the Huashan Sword Debate, Fang Zhixing is really not sure. Although Shaolin Temple is known as the source of martial arts in the world, due to the heavy losses of the fire foreman Tuo, martial arts fell into decline. Even the first two Huashan sword discussions did not send anyone to participate. Look at it this way. There won't be much hope of going this time. After all, the prestige of Shaolin Temple is too great, and now it has fallen into decline in martial arts. If it is because of the defeat and prestige of participating in the Huashan Sword Debate, it can be said that the gains outweigh the losses. It was because Fang Zhixing didn't report much hope for this trip, and the reason why he came to the door in person, in addition to showing respect, was to communicate with the masters in the temple to see if he could get a harvest. Shaolin Temple as early as the Sui and Tang dynasties martial arts has been famous all over the world, hundreds of years do not know how many masters hidden in it, there must be a place for reference.
"Zen Master Tianming is here, Quanzhen Fang Zhixing will meet you!" Fang Zhixing said loudly. The voice was condensed and spread far into the temple. When the people in the temple heard this, they felt that his tone was clear and gentle, as if he was speaking in his ear, and their hearts were terrified. Even the seven old monks in a meditation hall were all shocked.
When the first few monks of Shaolin Temple saw Fang Zhixing wearing a Taoist robe, they were already puzzled in their hearts, and when they heard this, they were taken aback. In recent years, although the Shaolin Temple has been closed, it has not come out. But it doesn't mean that he doesn't care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, of course, he has heard of Fang Zhixing, the top master of the younger generation. Not to mention that when he won the Guan Heroes Club that year, Fang Zhixing once defeated the Golden Wheel with a sword. Even he, as the person with the highest martial arts among the descendants of the Quanzhen Sect, is enough to make the Shaolin Temple remember it from time to time. At this time, seeing that he came to visit alone, Rao is several monks were a little prepared in their hearts. There was also a bit of a rush for a while.
After all, they were the disciples of the Great Sect, and these people calmed down after a while. stepped forward to take Fang Zhixing's greeting post and invited him to sit down in the pavilion in front of the door. Send someone in to report. The rest of the people stayed in front of the temple and kept staring at Fang Zhixing.
Fang Zhixing saw that they were like a great enemy, and secretly shook his head in his heart. Although the Shaolin Temple has declined because of the changes in the temple, it has always been the largest sect in the world, and it will naturally not be convinced by the Quanzhen Sect, which is currently the largest religion in the world. Moreover, the two are in the same north, one belongs to Buddhism, and the other belongs to Taoism, so the relationship will naturally not be good. Seeing the appearance of these people, Fang Zhixing could think of the attitude of the monks in the Shaolin Temple towards him, but he was afraid that if he was a little careless, it would be possible to make a move. Thinking of this, he was also more cautious in his heart, thinking about how to deal with it.
Just thinking about it, Fang Zhixing suddenly saw the temple door wide open, and walked out of two rows of monks in gray robes on the left and right, fifty-four people on the left and fifty-four people on the right, a total of one hundred and eight people, that is the disciple of the Arhat Hall, the number of one hundred and eight Arhats, can form a hundred and eight Arhats. Eighteen monks followed, older, with light yellow robes on their gray robes, who were disciples of the Bodhidharma Hall of the higher generation, and could form an eighteen Arhat array. After a while, seven old monks wearing large plaid robes came out. The seven monks are full of wrinkles, the young ones are more than 60 years old, and the old ones seem to be 80 years old, and they are the seven elders of the Heart Meditation Hall. Then the abbot of Tianming walked out slowly, the left Dharma Hall seat Wuxiang Zen Master, the right Arhat Hall seat colorless Zen Master. With more than 100 people, the monks in the Shaolin Temple can be described as elite.
Seeing such a battle in Shaolin Temple, Fang Zhixing was really taken aback. He traveled all the way, and successively met with the Kunlun faction, Wutai Mountain and other factions, but he never received such treatment, but he didn't expect that when he arrived in Shaolin, the other party put on such a big battle, looking at their appearance, they must not simply welcome themselves, but more wary.
In fact, Fang Zhixing didn't know that he had traveled all the way, although he hadn't done anything earth-shattering, he had already been known by the major forces in the rivers and lakes. Although the Shaolin Temple is closed, the monks have gone out a little, but there are still a lot of lay disciples, and the news is naturally quite well-informed. Tianming Zen Master and others had already heard the rumors of Junshan Huiwu and Huashan discussing swords, and knew that after Fang Zhixing visited Wutai Mountain, they had already guessed that the next stop would be Shaolin. Because he was worried that Fang Zhixing would take the opportunity to pick Shaolin and sit on the position of the number one sect in the world, the abbot of Tianming passed down the decree early and summoned the monks to practice the formation. Just now, Fang Zhixing sent a message to visit, which shocked all these people, and they appeared one by one. Even the seven elders of the Heart Meditation Hall also appeared under the notice of Tianming.
Abbot Tianming, Colorless, Wuxiang and others were really shocked when they saw that Fang Zhixing was only twenty or thirty years old. They knew that Fang Zhixing was extraordinary in martial arts at a young age, but when they saw it with their own eyes, they still couldn't suppress the surprise in their hearts. The hand that Fang Zhixing showed just now, they thought that they couldn't do it, and after hastily arguing, they knew that the requirements for power control could be said to be appalling, and it was even more incredible that Fang Zhixing could reach such a state at a young age. Although Zen Master Tianming thought about inviting the seven elders of the Meditation Hall to come to the array, he really didn't know how deep their martial arts were, and whether they could control Fang Zhixing when they started. Thinking of this, he could only hope for the Arhat Great Array. (To be continued!)
