Chapter 212: Excessive Demands
Suddenly, Monk Yuanjue's face changed, and he whispered: "There are actually three great grandmasters in that Nalanda Temple, how is it possible?"
Three powerful breaths appeared in the temple, and the monk Yuanjue was the first to perceive them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Chilong Dao Chang and Ben also had a solemn face. Nalanda Temple is worthy of being the place where Tang Xuanzang studied scriptures, and it is really profound. Even if the temple was destroyed once before, after it was rebuilt, it could still surpass the other temples.
When they arrived in the backyard of Nalanda Temple, they finally met three very old Indian monks. Their skin, like the bark of a withered tree, is dark and rough, losing its original luster.
If it weren't for the clear and bright eyes of the three Indian monks, Fu Lin would have wondered if they would all be decrepit.
"Four cultivators from Huaxia, I didn't expect you to come to Nalanda Temple, we welcome it. You may be seated. One of the Indian monks at the head said with a smile.
He spoke very jerky, but Monk Fulin and Monk Yuanjue could still understand it.
Monk Yuanjue clasped his hands together: "Thank you." ”
After sitting down, the monk Yuanjue said in Sanskrit: "The three Venerable Ones of Nalanda Monastery, your yoga practice has reached the level of perfection, which is really eye-opening. ”
When you are successful in yoga, you can reach the level of a guru (guru), and after you are perfect, you can touch the edge of a great guru.
Yoga is somewhat similar to tai chi, which is easy to learn but difficult to master. It is not easy to cultivate yoga, especially ancient yoga, to the state of perfection.
Venerable is the honorific title of the great master of Indian Buddhism.
The Buddha is called the World-Honored One.
An Indian monk on the right smiled and said, "Four Chinese cultivators, we also admire your cultivation. Although Chinese martial arts are not the same system as our Tianzhu martial arts, Chinese martial arts are also broad and profound. ”
The three eminent monks of Nalanda Monastery went to China when they were young.
Just like the head of the White Crane Road visited Tianzhu when he was young. If you want to achieve something in your cultivation, you can't do it by just practicing hard, you also need to travel the world and increase your knowledge.
Ascetics, that's where it comes from.
They introduced themselves.
In order to gain the trust of Nalanda Temple, Fu Lin did not hide his identity. The three senior monks of Nalanda Temple glanced at Fu Lin in surprise, but they didn't expect that this little monk with good cultivation was actually the former emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
Monk Yuanjue said, "I don't know the three Venerables, have you ever heard of the White Lotus Sect?"
The Indian monk at the head nodded and said, "We practice at Nalanda Monastery, but we are not isolated from the world. The White Lotus Sect in China, which originated in the Song Dynasty, is a branch of the Pure Land sect of Buddhism. Speaking of which, the White Lotus Sect and our Buddhism have the same root and origin. ”
Monk Yuanjue shook his head and said, "Venerable, what you said was the former White Lotus Sect. And now the White Lotus Sect has completely changed its taste. Since Chen Ji took over as the leader of the White Lotus Sect, this organization has transcended the Buddhist and martial arts worlds and developed into a huge warlord organization. Chen Ji led his subordinates to continuously expand their power along the southeast coast of China. Recently, the White Lotus Cult has also destroyed the Spanish garrison on Luzon and taken Luzon Island for itself. ”
Monk Yuanjue roughly told Chen Ji's deeds, and then Fulin began to add explanations.
Fu Lin was once the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and he knew more about Chen Ji than anyone else.
The people who know themselves best are often the enemies.
Fulin knows Chen Ji very well, and of course, Chen Ji also knows him very well.
Fu Lin described Chen Ji as an extremely evil person, and the White Lotus Sect naturally became a demon sect. After that, he told the story of Chen Ji's harm to India from the frontal side. It is hoped that Nalanda Temple can fight against Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect together with the Great Qing.
The three Indian monks are all people of great wisdom, and each of them is a hundred years old. The firmness of the mind is not comparable to ordinary people. Fulin wanted to fool them easily, and it was almost impossible.
The Indian monk at the head said with a smile: "The former emperor of the Qing Dynasty, your words are very convincing. But how can we trust you? Although we are monks and practitioners, we still know a lot about politicians. Politicians will do whatever it takes to achieve their ends. It is entirely possible to slander an opponent. We can't take your word for it. Besides, even if what you say is true, Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect are only a threat to the Chinese martial arts world and the regime of the Qing Dynasty, and Chen Ji has no ambition for us in India. ”
The monk on the left said, "Four practitioners from China, if you come to Nalanda Monastery to exchange culture and martial arts, we are very welcome. If you want to borrow the hand of Nalanda Temple to deal with the White Lotus Sect, we will not agree. Today, we're going to talk about it here. If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
Afterwards, the three Indian monks asked the young monks of Nalanda Monastery to take them down to settle down and rest.
........................
In the room, the four of them sat at the table, their faces sad. The three respects of Nalanda Temple were unwilling to join forces to deal with Chen Ji, and in this way, there would be a big trouble. The first to lose his breath was Fu Lin, and he said in a cold voice: "We came to the Nalanda Temple by mistake. I didn't expect those three old guys to not get in the oil and salt. What are we going to do now? Are we going to just go back in disgrace?"
Gone back in a gloomy way, but there was nothing. More importantly, how to face Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect's next counterattack.
What kind of person Chen Ji is, Fulin knows best, as long as he makes a move, it is to kill with one hit, or maximize the benefits.
Chen Ji clashed with the Qing Dynasty several times, which not only swept away the prestige of the Qing Dynasty, but also lost millions of taels of silver wealth, making the White Lotus Sect make a lot of money.
The Red Dragon Dao Elder said, "The three Venerables of Nalanda Temple have a point. The White Lotus Sect is powerful, and Chen Ji's martial arts and swordsmanship are even more unbeatable. We suddenly came to Nalanda Temple and asked them to deal with Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect, which was indeed a bit unrealistic. After all, Chen Ji and the White Lotus Sect did not infringe on the interests of Nalanda Temple. ”
Honben nodded and agreed with the words of the Red Dragon Dao Chief: "If you want Nalanda Temple to join forces with us, you must make Nalanda Temple trust us. ”
Monk Yuanjue was silent for a while and said, "Perhaps, the situation is not as bad as we imagined. Nalanda Temple's refusal today is not necessarily not to retreat into advance. Fulin, tomorrow we will directly propose an exchange of benefits and see how they react. The poor monk didn't believe that the three Venerables of Nalanda Temple were really bodhisattvas who didn't eat the fireworks of the world. ”
Monk Yuanjue is a great monk of Buddhism, and it is precisely because of his profound Buddhism that he can see through human nature. If a person like Monk Yuanjue understands psychology, he will be a master of psychology.
Fulin nodded, "Okay." ”
The next day, the conversation continued.
In the beginning, the condition they put forward was only to give silver. But Nalanda Temple disagreed.
Nalanda Monastery is a first-class temple in India, and the princes and nobles have to give three points to the three Venerables, how can they not have wealth.
After a long negotiation, Fulin and Master Yuanjue agreed to let Nalanda Monastery go to China to preach, which relieved them. It's just that the three Venerables still haven't completely agreed to deal with Chen Ji.
The Indian monk at the head said, "If the White Lotus Sect and Chen Jizhen are as powerful as you say, then it will not be a matter of three or two days if we want to deal with them. This matter needs to be considered in the long run. I asked Senior Brother Kamodo to go to China with you to go on a field trip. ”
Kamodo, one of the three great grandmasters of Nalanda Temple, ranks second in his martial arts, and can be regarded as a very strong existence.
Fu Lin sighed secretly and said, "Okay. We agree with His Holiness's arrangement. ”
If you ask for help, you will naturally not be able to straighten your waist. There is nothing Fulin can do but compromise.
The Indian monk at the head said with a smile: "Don't underestimate Kamodo, his martial arts cultivation is the top among our entire Indian ascetics." As a teenager, Kamodo once worshipped the Brahmanical religion to practice qi. Therefore, the Kamodo disciples have received a complete lineage of Brahmanical martial arts. ”
The Brahmanical practice of qi is a bit different from the secret method of internal breathing in Chinese martial arts.
The secret method of breathing in Huaxia is to refine the qi and blood, and to exercise the muscles and bones of the whole body. And the Brahmanical practice of qi is only to exercise the lungs. However, this kind of qi cultivation technique, once cultivated to a high level, is also very powerful.
Human breathing depends entirely on the lungs. The lungs contain hundreds of millions of alveoli that are used to increase the amount of oxygen in the blood. It provides energy for the body's action and thinking. However, the utilization rate of the lungs, like the brain, is very low.
The average person is short of breath and doesn't even use one percent of the alveoli in the lungs.
If all the air bubbles in the lungs are utilized, the oxygen content of the blood in the whole body will increase exponentially, and the strength and speed will reach an incredible level.
The yoga of Indian Buddhism is to temper the fascia of the mind and body, while the practice of Qi in Brahmanism is to practice only the lungs. The two sects have different martial arts inheritances.
The origin of Brahmanism predates Buddhism by more than 1,500 years, and for thousands of years, countless followers have specialized in the practice of qi and exercised their lungs to the extreme.
Kamodo stood up and took a deep breath. This breath, he breathed very long, half a cup of tea. The air within a radius of ten zhang seemed to have been sucked in by him.
Kamodo's heart was beating faster, and the blood flow in his body was faster. The heart and lungs are connected and smashed together. When the lungs are strong, the heart will naturally be strong. If you breathe fast, your heart beats faster, and if you breathe slowly, your heart beats slowly.
It's common sense.
But the amount of air swallowed by the Kamodo's lungs is too large. Inhaling it in one go, the oxygen content of the blood in the body increased by more than ten times, and Kamodo suddenly looked dozens of years younger.
"Whew. ”
Kamodo let out a breath, and everyone present felt a burst of heat.
Monk Yuanjue folded his hands and recited the Buddha's name: "Venerable Kamodo's Qi cultivation technique is really eye-opening. I admire it. ”
Kamodo smiled and said, "My Qi cultivation technique is actually nothing. Although I received the Brahmanical Qi Practice, I did not practice it to the fullest. The three masters of Brahmanism, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, have completed their Qi practice. Their martial arts and strength have reached incredible levels. ”
Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are the three main gods in Brahmanical legends.
The three sect leaders are called by the name of the main god, although arrogant, but it also shows their strength. Nalanda Monastery and Brahmin teachers are mortal enemies, if Brahmanism is not strong, I am afraid that it will be destroyed by Buddhism long ago.
"Actually, you said Chen Ji so well, I have some expectations in my heart, I really hope to have a fight with Chen Ji. Kamodo smiled and said, "I want to see if the martial arts of the White Lotus Sect are powerful, or if my yoga skills are more powerful." ”
The leading monk frowned: "Kamodo, don't be arrogant. After all, Chen Ji is the leader of the sect, and his power and martial arts must not be underestimated. You have to be careful when you touch him, otherwise, you will be in danger. ”
There are many kinds of Chinese martial arts, which are more mysterious than Indian martial arts.
The only practice in India is the yoga of Buddhism and the practice of qi in Brahmanism, which are the two most famous.
The art of cultivation is important in specialization. With these two cultivation methods, there are also many masters in India. It's just that compared with the Chinese martial arts world, it's still a little worse.
Kamodo nodded, "Yes." I know. If I meet Chen Ji, I will definitely go all out and never underestimate the enemy. ”
The leader monk said, "All right. Go now, and set out as soon as possible. ”
Monk Yuanjue saluted slightly: "Venerable, we are leaving." ”
..............................
Chen Ji returned to Taiwan.
Zhang Mingyue said happily: "Xianggong, you are finally back." I heard you're in danger in Luzon? Are you alright? ”
Chen Ji smiled and said, "I'm fine." There is no danger. However, my harvest this time is not small, my Pure Yang Nine Scrolls have been completed. ”
Zhang Mingyue said excitedly: "Xianggong, what you said is true? Your Pure Yang Gong is really a great achievement? Doesn't that mean that you have completely controlled the Fire Attribute True Qi?"
Chen Ji nodded and said, "At noon, make some good dishes." Master and I are going to have a good meal. It is a big deal to practice pure yang gong thoroughly. Zhang Mingyue smiled and said, "Okay." I'm going to prepare the food now. I'm going to cook it myself. ”
After lunch, Zhang Mingyue packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen.
Chen Ji was worried about Daoist Baihe: "Master, the current situation is very unfavorable to me. I didn't expect that the martial arts world would actually stand on the side of the Manchu court. You know, I'm the leader of the martial arts world. ”
The power of the martial arts world is very strong, and if the Manchu court really controls the entire martial arts world, the White Lotus Sect will be in great trouble.
Wutai Mountain, Longhu Mountain, and Shaolin Temple have all joined forces with Fulin.
Even with Chen Ji's martial arts, he has to pay attention to it.
The White Crane Dao Elder sighed: "Over the years, the White Lotus Sect has developed too rapidly. Your martial arts are growing too fast. You are young, and your fire attribute true qi has become great. There is no limit to what you can achieve in the future. Your chances of becoming the strongest are going to increase. Bodhidharma, Wang Chongyang, Zhang Sanfeng, they are not as strong as you at your age. You can imagine how much pressure you put on the entire martial arts world. The battle for Taoism is the most cruel. That's life and death, and you can't afford to back down. If you want to change the pattern of the martial arts world, they are fighting hard with you, and it is a matter of course. ”
Chen Ji shook his head and said, "I'm just doing what I have to do, and I don't want to change the pattern of the martial arts world. ”
"But you're already doing it. The White Crane Daoist said lightly.
