Chapter 318: Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng appeared in Shaolin Temple
Songshan Shaolin Temple is located at the foot of the five milk peaks of Songshan Mountain, because it is located in the forest of Shaomu Mountain in the hinterland of Songshan Mountain, so it is called Shaolin Temple.
Shaolin Temple was founded in the Northern Wei Dynasty Taihe 19 years, is Emperor Xiaowen in order to place the Indian Taoist monk Batuo Venerable, after that, all dynasties have had a large-scale expansion and reconstruction, is one of the important temples of Buddhism to promote the Dharma, is the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism of Han Buddhism, Bodhidharma Patriarch is in Shaolin Temple on the back mountain retreat for three years, and finally got the realization of the golden body is fruitful.
On this day, the Shaolin Temple closed the mountain gate, and the monks in the temple were holding a grand ceremony, and the rumbling Sanskrit sound turned into the power of purification in all directions.
Kneeling outside the gate of Shaolin Temple is full of nearby people, each of them has tears on their faces, and even more has cried and swollen their eyes, it seems that they have been kneeling outside the door for a long time, kneeling to the Shaolin Temple over and over again, and chanting a name - Elder Du'e.
The front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall was full of Shaolin Temple monks, and the black pressure was overwhelming. The monks where they were each clasped their palms together and hummed the mantra of the past in their mouths, so that the sound of the Buddha filled the sky and the scriptures were immense. With the endless sorrow of the monks, through the high wall of Shaolin Temple, through the jungle of Shaolin Mountain, and straight to the Buddha Land of Lingshan, the air is slightly vibrating.
Daxiong Treasure Hall is full of Buddhism and Taoism all sides of the power, in front of the solemn three golden body Buddhas, the nine Ming kings of Buddhism sit around the lotus futon, only do not see the South China Sea Agarwood Pavilion Ran Shi Tai, in addition to this, there are many Taoist monks of all sides of the temple.
Buddhism has five kings and four great kings, collectively known as the nine kings of Buddhism, these nine kings in the modern era can be regarded as the existence of the living Buddha of the guru, under the leadership of the three Buddhist elders, in charge of the nine Buddhist affairs.
The five kings of Jiedi Ming respectively guard the five holy places of Buddhism, the dojo of the King of the Earth Bodhisattva, Jiuhua Mountain, the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the dojo of Puxian Bodhisattva, Mount Emei, the dojo of Manjushri Bodhisattva, and the dojo of Maitreya Buddha and Bodhisattva.
Although the four great kings of Garan Ming did not guard the sacred mountain of Buddhism like the King of the Five Directions, they also guarded the important places of Buddhism in the four directions. The status of the Nine Great Ming Kings in Buddhism is second only to the three elders of the Buddha, and the eight masters of Taoism are respected alongside, and they are the mainstays of Buddhism.
Now that the second elder has been killed for no reason, except for the first great elder Puji who has not come out of retreat, the nine great apologetic kings have reached the eighth. At this time, they are all reciting scriptures in their mouths for the elders of the Crossing Journey, including the legal elder of the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple of Qianshan who is one of the kings of the five directions, and the presiding officer of the Great Compassion Zen Monastery of the four great kings of Garan.
The physical relics of Elder Du'e were placed in the center of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, wearing a golden dragon robe, surrounded by nine lotus soul-attracting lamps, and the eight Guardian Ming kings sat around Elder Du'e, with Sanskrit sounds in their mouths continuously, and the power of purification was surging in all directions.
In addition to the eight kings of Buddhism and the great power of Buddhism from all sides, there are many Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, all of whom are the Taoist temples near the Taoist temple who heard the news and came to the Taoist friends, and the Taoist friends who made friends before their deaths, there is only one person who is different from each other, this person is wearing the Taoist robe, this person is one of the eight masters of the Taoist sect Laoshan Zhangjiao - Ying Long.
At this time, Ying Long Dao frowned, not knowing whether he was silently mourning for the unexplained murder of Du Doom, or worried about the rumor.
At this moment, a small monk ran into the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, hurriedly clasped his palms together, and said breathlessly: "The third elder is back!
When the monks heard that Fakong, who had been missing for a year, had returned, except for the Eight Great Ming Kings, they were still reciting scriptures, and the rest of the monks and Taoists hurriedly came out of the Daxiong Hall to greet them.
The momentum of the Dharma space walking is like wind and thunder, and a few dodges came to the front of the monks, the face is dry and thin, the eyes are cold and contemptible, and the empty robe is windless and automatic, standing speechless and not angry and self-threatening.
All the monks who came to mourn hurriedly stepped forward under the leadership of the Shaolin Temple Supervisor, and said with their palms together: "Three Elders!"
The Daomen, headed by Ying Longzhang Sect, also stepped forward to give a salute: "Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"
Fakong still had a cold and contemptuous expression, and shouted the Buddha's horn to Daoist Ying Long and other Taoist priests and said: "Amitabha, today the second elder of my Buddhist sect passed away, and I am very grateful to all the Taoist friends who came to offer condolences. ”
When Daoist Ying Long heard this, he sighed and said: "Buddhism is originally a family, and they are both leaders of the righteous path in the world. And now the elders of Doom are full of disasters, and the golden body is restored, and since then he has been extraordinary, and he is also reluctant to give up, but God will do so, and I hope that the three elders will settle the things behind the second elder, so that the former can feel at ease. ”
"Blessed life immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! The past cannot be kept, and the deceased cannot be chased! Elder Du Er is in bliss of rebirth, we must send it on a ride, Elder Fakong can say anything straightforward, my Dao Sect will do my best!"
Fakong listened to the words of Daoist Yinglong and another old Daoist, sighed, didn't say anything, and was just about to lead the monks into the Daxiong Treasure Hall, when the little monk hurriedly ran over again: "Daomen Sect Leader Nangong Daoist and Deputy Sect Leader Zhong Ion Daoist, as well as Shamanic Sect Leader Hu Guangcheng Great Shaman has arrived!"
Fakong frowned slightly, but the faces of the people in the Daomen were a little more relaxed, but the monks of Shaolin Temple showed a look of displeasure, and when they heard that the two masters of the Daomen had arrived, they could finally get back an explanation for the abbot of the Doom. So, as several Buddhist elders turned around and looked outside the courtyard, they waited for the arrival of the three of them.
Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng were on the way to Shaolin Temple, and they were rewarded by Huang Xian, and the little monk who came to report the funeral left the town where Nangong Zikuo was located and went straight to Gegen Temple.
Gegen Temple is a Tibetan Buddhist temple under Changbai Mountain, and it has never used shamans as protectors, so the yellow immortal was also stopped by the guardian god, and the yellow immortal lied that he was the little monk's protector and immortal, and he must be protected with him, and there was no malice. But the Dharma Protector God said that there was no little monk who had entered the Gegen Temple at all, and after several discussions, the Dharma Protector God was furious, saying that Huang Xian had a certain plot out of nothing, and almost made a move.
Huang Xian had no choice but to come back and report to Hu Guangcheng, although Huang Xian who was sent out did not see the little monk who went to see who said anything, but at this time, Hu Guangcheng and Nangong Zikuo were already able to determine that the person who killed the elder of Du Er was the lama of the Western Dharani Golden Holy Palace, and the little monk who came to deliver the letter went around sending letters, deliberately making a lot of color about the conflict between Fang Yuan Dao Chang and Du Er, just to provoke the suspicion of Buddhism, and then these lamas were doing their tricks and feet in it, reaching some kind of secret that could not be mastered.
After getting the news, Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng also went to the river before their death, around that river, there was nothing unusual in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of cultivators, they could see that the aura was chaotic, and the surrounding plants and trees had been broken by powerful aura fluctuations, hurting the foundation, and it would not take a few days to wither and wither.
Walking downstream along the river, in a shallow where the river flows, Nangong Zikuo found a few yellow hairs, which are the yellow hairs on the lama's crown, plus the little monk before is basically certain that the murderer must be the lama of the Dharanijin Holy Palace, and the murderer is likely to be in the Gegen Temple.
Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng glanced at each other, dodged and disappeared in place, only to meet Zhong Ion when they were close to Shaolin Temple. After the three of them met, they didn't do much communication, and went directly through the believers who were still kneeling down to the temple, entered the Shaolin Temple, and came to the front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
When Fakong saw Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng, he squeezed out a smile on the corner of his mouth without smiling, and put his hands together and said: "Amitabha, I haven't seen you for a long time, and the three old friends have always been good?"
When the new sect leader was elected in the Baiyun Temple of Changbai Mountain, Daoist Ying Long did not show up, just because Daoist Ying Long's senior brother Ying Feng was related.
Ying Feng Dao Chang once competed with Nangong Zikuo for the position of the sect leader, although he was not familiar with Nangong Zikuo in terms of cultivation, but he was too small-bellied and selfish, and was finally defeated by Zhong Ion and Fang Yuan, Ying Feng knew that he had lost face, and even if he continued to fight, he would not have the original majesty, so he returned to Laoshan in anger and was no longer born, and only for the development of Laoshan and assisted his own master Ying Long, that is, since then, Ying Feng has formed a deep hatred with the three sect masters in the Daomen now.
Therefore, when Daoist Ying saw that Daomen brought up the old matter again, in order not to make the senior brother sad, he deliberately absent and did not appear in person. Now that he saw Nangong Zikuo, he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and after saluting Nangong Zikuo and Zhong Ion with all the Taoist priests, he didn't say anything more, just stood sideways.
At this time, the eight major apologists who were sitting next to the corpse of Du Er also walked out of the Mahavira Hall and came to Fakong's side.
Today's Buddhism and Taoism several sect leaders and elders, the nine Ming kings of Buddhism, and the Daomen Bafang Sect are all familiar with each other, and they are all Daoist masters who survived the last time the dragon and demon seals were loosened, and now they are in charge of all aspects of Buddhism and Taoism, guarding the peace of one party.
After the Buddhist monks saw Nangong Zikuo and Hu Guangcheng, they greeted each other with their hearts, Nangong Zikuo could see that there were a few monks with unkind faces, obviously believing in the rumor, it was determined that Fang Yuan killed Du Doom, and now that he saw himself, he would definitely ask for an explanation.
Nangong Zikuo thought of this and said, "Elder Fakong has been gone for a year to investigate the Kunlun anomaly, and it has been a hard work!"
"Yes..."Hu Guangcheng shook the wind and thunder fan in his hand, and continued Nangong Zikuo's words unhurriedly: "I didn't expect Shaolin Temple to experience such a change, Zikuo and I are unbearable, and I hope that Brother Fakong will be relieved!"
When Fakong heard this, he answered with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Hu Daxian is still the same as usual!"
"Now it's not the same as before, the shamanic great shaman has been passed down by my Hu family to this day, leading the five clans and thousands of shaman heirs in the northeast region to punish evil and promote good, and accumulate merits! But now the only incense of the Hu family has evaporated from the world for no reason, and its whereabouts are still unknown. It seems that there will be no more great shamans in the Northeast after my death. ”
After Hu Guangcheng finished speaking, he sighed heavily, and continued: "I had a relationship with the old brother of Doom, and now that my golden body is corrected, I disdain to see the old man again, but after all, we are ordinary people, and we must see the last person to feel at ease." ”
After listening to Hu Guangcheng's polite words, Fakong didn't say anything, announced the name of the Buddha, and sideways let Hu Guangcheng and the others into the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
