At this time, the people of the Quanzhen Sect had already finished cleaning up the other rebels and surrounded Zhao Zhijing. Seeing that the Mongol army had descended, Wang Chuyi stepped forward to capture Zhao Zhijing and let him leave. Seeing this, Zhou Botong was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, shouting bored. was about to step forward to ask Zhen Zhibing, but was stopped by Fang Zhixing and beckoned everyone to evacuate.

The Quanzhen Sect had already been prepared these days, and although it had suffered losses due to accidents at this time, it was not panicking. Each of them carried some remaining things from the mountain, and according to the assigned route, the east team and the west team ran down the mountain. Fang Zhixing and Zhou Botong escorted everyone to evacuate.

The Mongol army finally moved away from the obstacles piled up by the Quanzhen Sect and attacked the mountain, but they only saw an empty house, and they were all very angry and set fire to Chongyang Palace. Seeing this, the leading Mongolian officer thought that it would be difficult for the Quanzhen Sect to run far for a while, so he withdrew his army and sent people to set fire to Zhongnan Mountain, trying to force the Quanzhen Sect people to appear. But I don't know how the people of the Quanzhen Sect are familiar with the terrain and have already withdrawn to a hidden place in the mountains, so how can they force it out.

Fang Zhixing and the others walked for more than ten miles, and when they saw that they were far away from Chongyang Palace, they were relieved. Seeing the fire on the mountain from afar, I was very angry in my heart, but I was helpless. After the plan, everyone dispersed according to the original plan, leaving only some people and horses, staying in the mountains, waiting for the Mongol army to leave and rebuild the Chongyang Palace.

"Where's Uncle Zhou?" Qiu Chuji was dispatching everyone, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Zhou Botong for a while, and asked everyone. When the group heard this, they shook their heads and didn't know, Fang Zhixing saw this, asked for his life to leave, and went to find Zhou Botong. Qiu Chuji knew that the two of them lived nearby, and they were not often in the Quanzhen Sect. Thinking that the affairs of the sect are now over, Fang Zhixing's disciple Yang Guo is highly poisoned, and there is no information now. He agreed to come down and let Fang Zhixing leave on his own.

Fang Zhixing said goodbye. He went to Zhongnan Mountain again. I don't know if it was affected by the fire of Zhongnan Mountain, and the snow fluttered in the sky, which was small at first, and then the north wind gradually strengthened, and the snow became heavier and heavier. Fang Zhixing didn't take it to heart, and started a light journey under the heavy wind and snow, and rushed to Zhongnan Mountain.

When he arrived at Zhongnan Mountain, Fang Zhixing saw that the fire in Chongyang Palace was extremely strong. remembered that Zhou Botong didn't like to stay here, but played with bees in the back mountain, and was worried about Master Lin, Xiaolongnu, and Grandma Sun in the ancient tomb, so he went to the ancient tomb. Fortunately, there is a stream in the mountain that leads directly to the ancient tomb, and Fang Zhixing is no obstacle to walk in it.

Enduring the high temperature brought by the fire, Fang Zhixing went to the tomb and called for a long time, but he didn't hear anyone in the ancient tomb respond. Thinking of his instructions a few days ago, he knew that the people in the ancient tomb should be on guard against the burning of the mountain in Mongolia, and go to the secret passage of the ancient tomb or other places in the mountain that cannot be burned by fire. See here. Fang Zhixing also put his mind at ease. As for Zhou Botong's safety, he was not worried, seeing that the ancient tomb was temporarily unoccupied. left a handwriting, explaining that he was going to the Valley of Despair, and then returned to Chixia Villa, so that after Zhou Botong got the news, he went back.

After doing this, it was already dark, and Fang Zhixing saw that the fire could not be extinguished for a while, so he had to leave temporarily. Turning the mountainside, I suddenly saw two small wooden houses between two large pine trees. There was a thick layer of snow on the roof. He didn't want to rest, but his heart moved. Walk towards the hut.

Ran to the approach, and saw the door half-hidden. There seemed to be no footprints in the snow, and he said aloud: "Passers-by encounter snow and beg to spend the night." After a while, there was no answer. Fang Zhixing pushed open the door and saw that there was no one in the house, and the tables and stools were full of dust, showing that they had not lived for a long time.

Fang Zhixing closed the door and lit a pile of firewood. With bows and arrows hanging from the walls of the wooden house, and a rabbit catcher in the corner, it seems that this house was the temporary residence of the hunters. In the other room, there was a bed and a table, and on the bed were several tattered wolf skins. Fang Zhixing went out to catch a roe deer, came back to peel the skin and open the cavity, scrubbed it with snow, and roasted it on the fire.

At this time, the snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, and the fire inside the house is blazing, and it is as warm as spring. Fang Zhixing was feasting, only to hear a person outside the house say: "Amitabha, the poor monk encountered snow in the mountain, and asked the donor to borrow a night." When he turned around, he saw two old monks standing in the snow, one with long white eyebrows and a kind look, and the other much shorter, with a pale beard and a tie in his clothes.

"But Master Yideng and Master Ci'en, it's an honor for the kid to meet two!" Fang Zhixing saw the two of them, and immediately invited the two into the house, and said respectfully.

This mercy is none other than Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang. On the same day, he had an epiphany at the top of Huashan, and took refuge as a monk under the seat of a lamp master. This white-eyed old monk is a master of the same name as Wang Chongyang, Huang Yaoshi, Ouyang Feng, and Hong Qigong. After Qiu Qianren shaved his ordination, his Dharma name was mercy, he sincerely converted to the Buddha and worked hard to cultivate. On this day, Master Yideng heard the message from his disciple Zhu Ziliu in the hermitage of Jinghu North Road, and learned that the Quanzhen Sect was in trouble, so he came to Zhongnan Mountain with mercy. I didn't know that I was in a hurry, but in the end it was still a step too late, and I only saw the fire on Zhongnan Mountain, and sighed in vain.

When Master Yideng heard Fang Zhixing call out the names of the two of them, and saw that he was wearing a Taoist robe, he also roughly guessed that he was a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, and said: "But Chongyang Zhenren's disciple doesn't know the Changzun number!"

Where did Fang Zhixing dare to lose his manners in front of Master Yideng, he didn't dare to do it, and replied: "Poor Fang Zhixing, the family teacher Guangningzi, dare not be a master to inquire." ”

"It turned out to be Fang Dao Chang, and the old man was polite. Fang Zhixing has also become famous in the past few years, and Master Yideng also knows his name, thinking of what Zhu Ziliu said, his tone was even more cordial, and he said to Fang Zhixing: "The old man heard that the Quanzhen Sect was persecuted by the Mongols, so he rushed over with mercy, but he still ...... late, alas, he sighed deeply.

"Master's mind, the whole true sect is in mind!" Fang Zhixing heard that Master Yideng was specially here for the Quanzhen Sect, his heart was slightly moved, and he said to Master Yideng. Then he explained to him that the Quanzhen Sect had been prepared for a long time, and this time it was not damaged much, and then again.

Master Yideng was relieved to hear that the Quanzhen Sect had not suffered much loss, and he sounded the Buddha's horn several times in succession, congratulating the Quanzhen Sect on getting out of great trouble. Fang Zhixing returned the salute again and again and thanked Master Yideng.

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard two choking sounds, and Ci En took out two black iron objects from his arms, clicked twice, and fastened one black object to his feet, which turned out to be a pair of iron cuffs. The other pair of iron cuffs clasped his hands.

Seeing this, Master Yideng had a caring look on his face, and said in a low voice: "Are you going to have another seizure?" Ci En said: "The disciple always feels that something is wrong along the way. I'm afraid I'm going to have another seizure. Suddenly, he fell to his knees and folded his hands. Said: "Ask the Buddha for mercy." When he had said that, he bowed his head and knelt motionless, and after a while his body trembled slightly, and his mouth began to gasp and make a loud noise, until then he roared like a bull. Even the walls of the wooden house shook with the roar, and the snow on the eaves fell down.

When Fang Zhixing saw Ci'en like this, he also felt compassion in his heart. After Qiu Qianren became a monk, he was tortured in his heart. Thinking of Aunt Ying and the old urchin, he sighed in his heart and decided to try his best to resolve the grievances for the four of them.

After a few moments, Ci'en's roar became even more rapid, as if it was hard to catch it. Master Yideng said slowly: "Do what you shouldn't do, do what you should do but don't do it, and regret is burning." Enlightenment has been ...... since then" These words are softly spoken, and even though they are breathing like a benevolent ox, they are still clearly audible.

Fang Zhixing was taken aback. Xin said: "The skill of Master Yideng is so profound, I don't know who in the world can match it?" He thought to himself that his skill had improved greatly, and it was similar to Hong Qigong, Ouyang Feng and others, but when he heard what Master Yideng said, he suddenly felt that this person's skill was so deep that it was difficult for him to figure it out. Among the people seen in this world, the old naughty boy Zhou Botong can be compared with it. I don't know how far Master Yideng's innate skills have been cultivated, and his skills can be so profound.

Master Yilan continued to recite: "If people can repent of their sins, there is no need to repent. If the mind is at ease, it should not be thought of constantly. No remorse. If you do not do it, you can do it, and all evil things have been done. It cannot be left unordered. When he had finished reciting, Ci'en paused, pondered, and whispered, "If a person can repent of his sins, he will no longer be repentant...... Master, the disciples know very well that the past is full of sins, troubles and hatreds, and they can't help themselves. The disciple thought, 'All evil things have been done, and we cannot stop doing them.' 'How can it be good to never be happy in your heart?'" Master Yideng said: "It is rare to be able to repent of committing sins. If a person is not a sage, who can do nothing? Knowing that he can change, and being good is great. ”

Ci En said: "The root of the disciple's evil is difficult to eliminate. Ten years ago, the disciple had taken refuge in my master for a long time, but he still injured three people. Today, the blood in his body is boiling, and it is difficult to control himself, but I am afraid that I will commit a great sin again, so I ask my teacher for mercy and cut off the disciple's hands. I can cut off your hands, but you must get rid of the evil thoughts in your heart. If the evil thoughts do not go away, what is the benefit of cutting off the hands and feet?" Ci'en suddenly cried bitterly and said, "Master has taught all the things, and the disciples can never get rid of the evil thoughts. ”

Master Yilan sighed and said, "Your heart is full of hatred, although you know that your past behavior is wrong, just because you lack benevolence, in short, evil thoughts are difficult to get rid of. Let me tell you the story of 'The Buddha Says the Deer Mother Sutra'. Ci En said: "Disciple listens." He sat down cross-legged. Fang Zhixing saw Master Yideng giving an apprentice, and he also listened quietly.

Master Yilan said: "Once upon a time there was a doe who gave birth to two fawns. When the doe is caught by a hunter, the hunter wants to kill her. The doe prostrated and pleaded, saying, 'I have two sons, young and ignorant, and will not seek water and grass.' When begging for a fake film, I told the child how to forage for food, and he would definitely die when he came back. 'Hunters don't. The doe begged bitterly, and the hunter was moved, and let it go.

"When the doe found the second son, she bowed her head and groaned, licked the body, sad and happy, and said to the second son: 'All love will be due to karma, and there will be parting from each other, and impermanence is rare for a long time. Now I am my mother, I am always afraid of not protecting myself, I am afraid of life and death, and my life is in danger of morning dew. Erlu was young and didn't know what his mother meant. The doe took her two sons, pointed out the beautiful water and plants, and exchanged tears, and said, 'I have been unlucky in my court, and I have fallen into the hands of hunters, that is, I should be slaughtered and broken, and I will be turned into decay.' Remembering your begging to mourn, you should die now, pity your little orphan, and try to live yourself. ’”

When the doe had finished speaking, she parted ways with the fawn. The second son cried, weeping and adoring, and followed closely from behind, although the young man did not run fast, he still fell and got up again, and refused to leave his mother. The doe stopped, turned back, and said, 'Son, do not come with you, for the hunter will see it, and mother and child will die together.' I was willing to die because I had pity on you for your weakness. The world is impermanent, and there is separation. I have deprived yourself of a mother. When he had finished speaking, he ran to the huntsman. The two little deer were eager to pursue the hunter's bow and arrow.

"When the hunter saw that the doe believed in the righteousness of death, sacrificed her life and kept her oath, and her ambition was sincere, which was beyond the reach of others, and saw that the mother and son of the three deer were inseparable, he took pity on the sorrow, so he let the deer not kill. The three deer were sad and happy, and the sound of the song was groaning, in order to thank the hunters. The hunter reported the matter to the king, and the whole nation was amazed, and the evil act of killing and hunting was stopped. ”

When Ci'en heard this story, she burst into tears and said, "This deer believes in righteousness, and the mother and son are filial, which is beyond the reach of the disciples. Master Yilan said: "Compassion together, killing karma will disappear." Kindness replied, "Yes!" Master Yideng said, "If you want to make up for it, you can only do good." Instead of regretting what you shouldn't have done in the past, you should do more in the future. He sighed slightly and said, "It's me, and I haven't done many wrong things in my life." He closed his eyes and pondered.

"'If a person is not a sage, who can be without fault? In fact, the master's words have already pointed out the true meaning. As long as you sincerely repent, how can you know that the other party is not sincere and forgiving? Fang Zhixing heard what Master Yideng said and said.

Master Yilan shook his head when he heard this, and he didn't want to say much about it. And Ci'en was irritable in his heart, and it was always difficult to restrain him, and when he heard what Fang Zhixing said, he shouted angrily: "What does the kid know, he is talking nonsense here!"

Fang Zhixing smiled slightly, and said: "You haven't tried it, how do you know what the other party thinks now? Now Yinggu's seniors are living in seclusion with the junior couple and others in Chixia Villa, if there is anything that needs the help of the juniors, the seniors can bring it up." ”

When Master Yideng heard that Aunt Ying was living in seclusion in Chixia Villa, his expression also moved slightly, and he was about to ask for details, but he heard Ci'en roar angrily and shouted, "Little beast, what nonsense are you talking about?" But when he heard Aunt Ying's name, he thought that he had killed her son back then, and he could no longer suppress the evil thoughts in his heart and wanted to kill people to vent his anger.

Ci'en made a sudden move, and Master Yideng couldn't react, seeing that Fang Zhixing didn't dodge or dodge, he was even more annoyed, and said secretly: "Alas, why didn't I save his life in time?" Seeing a smile on Fang Zhixing's face, he felt strange in his heart. (To be continued)
