Chapter 179: The Beginning of Divine Achievement
Li Xuan knew that he had been indulged in the enlightened mind before, and when he took care of himself, he had already consumed a lot of internal breath, if he fought with the three monks one after another, I was afraid that he would not be able to pass even a hundred moves, and secretly complained of suffering, so he naturally did not dare to be careless, and was hesitating, but he saw that the Zen Master Zhixing had already attacked a move lightly, which was the seventh type of pine forest Buddha light of the Compassion Tiger Snatcher that he had made before. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that although this move was precise and ingenious, it had no power, and then he understood that the three monks of Zhixing Zen Master wanted to fight with him again, perhaps because he wanted to repeat the situation of the right talent in the trick of not exerting force, so as to help him quickly overcome the problem of insufficient integration of internal breath and moves. He hurriedly collected his mind, his left hand was horizontal, and his right hand surrounded Wei to save Zhao's moves, and he was fully focused on attacking.
The four of them couldn't make a move, and in an instant, they had already fought three hundred moves. In the meantime, as long as Zen Master Zhixing's move to attack Li Xuan was blocked and it was difficult to get out, Zen Master Zhizong would quickly attack from the side to relieve his danger. If the attack of the Zen Master of Zhizong is blocked, the Zen Master of Zhicong will also attack from the side...... Under the gradual fighting, Li Xuan found that if he fought alone with any of the three monks, he would definitely win. If you have one against two, you can barely keep the draw. But if the three monks go together, they will definitely be defeated.
Although the rivers and lakes hide the dragon and crouching tiger, but the people who can fight to a draw with the chief leader of Shaolin Panruotang, the Zen master of Zhizong, even if you count the well-known hidden masters, I am afraid that there are no more than thirty people. And there are only a dozen people who can defeat any of the three monks of Zhizong, Zhixing, and Zhicong alone. Now that Li Xuan's injury has only healed, he has not only broken through the defects of the first three chapters of the treasure source secrets, but even after realizing the essence of the "Empty Phase Washing Pulp Sutra", he can burst out with such an amazing ability, which shows how powerful the "Empty Phase Washing Essence Sutra" left by Bodhidharma Zen Master is! But what he doesn't understand is why the three monks don't shoot together?
Li Xuan was extremely smart, and his mind changed slightly, and he already understood that although the three monks of Zhizong, Zhixing, and Zhicong trapped themselves in it, and even did not hesitate to spend their spiritual rest to deal with themselves, they were completely feeding themselves to practice, helping him to integrate the "Empty Phase Cleansing Technique" with the upgraded Cloud Demon Sword Technique as quickly as possible, and achieve a state of proficiency as much as he wanted.
Since he understands the other party's intentions, he fights more diligently. Although the four of them did not exert their strength, their moves were exquisite, and they did not lose in the fierce fight. In a moment, after the three hundred and seventy-one moves were completed, the Zen master of Zhizong shouted violently, and the three monks accepted the recruitment and stood up.
Zen Master Zhizong clasped his hands together, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said to Li Xuan and the three monks of repentance, foolishness, and knowledge: "This time is much better than last time." However, there are still twenty-nine moves that are not well integrated with technical attacks, and there are still thirteen moves that are extremely obvious. ”
The repentant host smiled and looked at the two monks of Zhiyu and Zhimu Zen Master beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Li Shaoxia is indeed making rapid progress. After finishing speaking, he said to Li Xuan: "According to the rules of Shaolin, Shaoxia is not a Shaolin shaving or lay disciple, not only can not stay in the temple for a long time, but also cannot enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. But the rules are dead, people are alive, although I wait for a few pieces of old rotten wood not to cherish this stinky skin, but still let you enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to study martial arts, in order to thank you for saving the lives of the monks in the whole temple. By this time, you have realized the essence of the Dharma Master Martial Arts, so you must leave the Shaolin Temple immediately. As he spoke, the smile on his old face became stronger, and he said slowly: "There are a few idle houses on the back mountain outside the Shaolin Temple, and in front of the house is a vacant land for practicing martial arts. But Lao Qu said first, since you left the Shaolin Temple, whether you succeed or fail in the rivers and lakes, it will have nothing to do with Shaolin. ”
After finishing speaking, Gao Xuan Buddha sounded and left with the two monks who knew the fool and the eye.
Seeing that the three of them were leaving, Zen Master Zhizong said enviously: "Congratulations to the young man." Li Xuan was slightly stunned, puzzled and asked, "What is the joy of it?" Zhizong Zen Master said: "Don't you really know?" Li Xuan smiled and said: "What should I know?" Zhizong Zen Master said: "The idle house that the repentant host let you go to is not an ordinary place. It was the residence of the Bodhidharma master facing the wall, and the four walls of the house were engraved with the heart method, although it was obscure, but the words were like gold, which was very conducive to the practice of martial arts.
Although the Shaolin Prajna Hall is a hall dedicated to the practice of martial arts, only the warrior monks with the fastest progress and the best understanding are allowed to go there for half a day every year. Now, the penitent host loves you so much, and gives you such an honor, shouldn't he congratulate you?"
When Li Xuan heard this, he was surprised and delighted: "It's really an honor to be like this." ”
Seeing his surprised appearance, Zen Master Zhizong laughed heartily and said, "It is indeed an honor. Hey, our Prajnatang monks are obsessed with martial arts, and although they have delayed their Buddhist practice, they still have some experience in the way of martial arts. Now that there is a repentant host, you can learn from young talents like Shaoxia, which is not only a promotion for us, but also a promotion for the way of Shaolin Zen and martial arts. ”
The four of them talked and laughed, and came to the retreat where the Dharma Zen Master had been practicing on the wall in the back mountain of Shaolin Temple. However, the three monks of Zhizong did not get the permission of the repentant host, and they could not enter the house without authorization, so the four of them exchanged skills in the open space in front of the house and talked about it happily.
Zhizong is good at fist and foot martial arts, Zhixing is good at finger and claw kung fu, and Zhicong is good at guns, sticks, knives, and swords. Since Li Xuan learned martial arts, he has never been promoted by people who are knowledgeable in martial arts. Now that you have this opportunity, how can you not be careful. Although the three monks of Zhizong are monks, they are also temperamental, because they see that Li Xuan is extremely smart and has a straightforward personality, so wherever there is a place to ask for advice, they will be explained in detail. Time is like water, and before he knows it's noon, Li Xuan feels that he has benefited a lot, but he is still unsatisfied.
The four of them were happily talking, but they heard footsteps in the distance on the mountain road. Zen Master Zhicong turned his head to look and saw that it was a young novice and a lean man in the temple walking slowly, so he smiled and said, "They are carrying food boxes and must have come to bring us lunch." ”
The little novice and the lean man approached, Li Xuan saw that the lean man was Xu Sangu, and he was strange, but he saw him open the food box, not only took out a few plates of exquisite vegetarian dishes, but also took out a few pieces of snacks and a large pot of warm tea.
When Li Xuan saw these pieces of dim sum, he knew that it was a healing dim sum made from the flesh of deep-sea sea insects, and the tea was also a medicinal tea made of thousand-year-old ginseng, ice lotus, and blood grass, and said in his heart: "This second son, Li Shimin, is not only a careful person, but also his power is really not weak. It seems that a lot of thought has been put into keeping this precious water warm here. ”
Xu Sangu and the other four finished eating, and did not stay, so they said goodbye to Xiao Shami and went down the mountain. After that, Xu Sangu and Xiao Shami, who had three meals a day, came on time and left in a hurry, making time for Li Xuan and the three monks of Zhizong, so that they could devote themselves to practicing with each other. At dusk on the tenth day, Xu Sangu not only came on time, but also brought a small package that Tang Bing had given to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan opened it and saw that the package contained an unsealed letter and an extremely thin, silky white vest.
In the letter, Tang Bing told Li Xuan that he had recovered most of his body, and now he had entered Shaanxi with several masters of the Taishou Mansion and was on his way to Chang'an. As for the white brocade silk vest, it was made by carefully dismantling the brocade mesh after she hadn't slept for several days and nights. Brocade wire mesh, any sharp sword can be cut continuously, if it is woven into a vest and worn closely, the sword will not hurt. Li Xuan stroked the brocade vest that was as light as nothing, and his heart was warm. He read the letter several times, although he felt that Tang Bing's handwriting was not as beautiful as before, but every time he read the poem she wrote at the end of the letter, his heart was more lovesick, and he couldn't help muttering: "Xingxing Xingxing, parting with Junsheng." More than 10,000 miles apart, each in the end of the world. The road is blocked and long, and the meeting can be safely known. The days are far away, and the days of clothing and belts have slowed down. The clouds cover the day, and the wanderer does not care about returning. Sijun makes people old, and the years are too late. Don't give up, try to add food...... Alas...... Bing'er, what are you really worried about? Why don't you tell me the truth!"
Li Xuan secretly thought that although Tang Bing's departure from him was related to her concealing her life experience and mysterious experience, there must be a last resort. As for what he is doing, he feels that it has a great relationship with Li Shimin. This is also the reason why Li Shimin wanted to high-five him, but he did not agree. Well, when everything is done, Bing'er promised to invite me to drink. Isn't Bing'er hinting to me that she will be waiting for me! Yes, as long as I am strong and alive, we will always have a happy day together. After thinking about it all night, he was sometimes happy, sometimes worried, and I don't know how long, he was sleeping hazy, but he listened to the morning bell outside the door, and the Sanskrit sound came faintly. Li Xuan knew that he had been in the house facing the wall of Dharma for ten days. In the past ten days, his martial arts cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, whether it is internal force or technical attack, it has increased several times compared to before, and the Divine Skill Body Protector is not only stronger, but also can sense more than fifty zhang away, or even farther away. Despite this, he was still unable to reach the supreme state of qi described in the sutras and to control all things at will.
Could it be that he was in too much of a hurry and missed some scriptures? He secretly double-checked the scriptures several times and found that there were no mistakes. Perhaps when Zen Master Bodhidharma wrote the Sutra of Emptiness and Purifying the Marrow, he did not compile it perfectly! You must know that if you reach the level of controlling all things with qi, you will reach a super high realm where every grass and tree can control the enemy. Is there really such martial arts in the world?
Li Xuan thought about it to no avail, got up in a hurry, and after a simple wash, he was sorting out the package, but saw four people with fluttering sleeves on the winding mountain road.
The four of them walked with great effort, and before they could take a moment, they had already arrived in the open space outside the house.
Li Xuan saw that the Zen master of Zhizong was the first, followed by the two Zen masters of Zhixing and Zhicong, and the last one was the beautiful and quiet Linglong girl.
Zhizong Zen Master Heshi saluted and said: "Counting from the time and day, Li Shaoxia should leave here today." The repentant host asked the three of us to see you off, which is considered to be the friendship of the landlord!" After speaking, he turned his head to look at Miss Ling Long beside him, and said, "Miss Ling Long heard that the young man was going down the mountain, so she also came. Come on...... Let's have breakfast first, let's go down the mountain to recover our lives, and then you continue to talk deeply!" Li Xuan humbly thanked, seeing that Zen Master Zhicong had set up a vegetarian breakfast, he stepped forward and picked up the millet porridge bowl, and respectfully said to the three monks of Zhizong: "The younger generation of this trip to Shaolin, and get the love of God, because of the blessing of misfortune, although death but life in the coincidence, in addition to thanking the repentant host and Zhiyu, Zhimu several Zen masters, but also thanks to the three Zen masters for the ten days of companionship. Now that I have gone down the mountain, I am in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know when I will see each other again...... So I borrowed this bowl of porridge this morning to pour out my gratitude. "You must know that since he entered the rivers and lakes, the people he met either have their own plans, or they are good in words and deeds, and several senior monks in front of him and in the temple under the mountain, in addition to being indifferent to fame and fortune, sincere and sincere, there are also people like Zhizong Zen Master with a free and easy temperament. He thought that he was about to go down the mountain, and he had to face the good and evil of human nature again, and start a new journey to the rivers and lakes.
The morning light is like a yarn, the mountain breeze is like water, and under the distant view, Shaomuro Mountain is extremely magnificent.
Seeing that Li Xuan's feelings were so rich, although he was a little embarrassed, he had read all the world, and his cultivation of Buddhism and martial arts was extraordinary, so he smiled faintly and said: "Young heroes don't want to be so affectionate." Although we will inevitably part, we will not see each other forever. You see, the wind passes before our eyes, and it will come back again when it doesn't go away. The old man actually has something to say about his farewell. ”
Li Xuan said: "Please make it clear to the master." ”
Zen Master Zhizong said slowly: "In another twenty days, it will be the Laba Festival." It is said that the Taishan Lingfeng Cliff Songfeng Dao faction has already contacted the major gangs in the rivers and lakes, and a grand Laba Heroes Conference will be held in Taishan at that time. Well, the Shaolin Temple has also received a hero post. The repentant presided over and weighed it again and again, and decided that the two senior brothers, Zhimu and Zhixing, and I would attend this conference. ”
Li Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "I happened to be going to that place to meet my friends...... Are we going to go all the way?"
Zen Master Zhizong smiled and shook his head, "You go first, I can start later." He saw that Li Xuan was slightly disappointed, and said, "Li Shaoxia, Lao Wei still has something to ask." Li Xuan said: "Master, please speak." Zen Master Zhizong looked at the white rainbow Wuxing woodcarved beast head that Yuan Tiangang gave Li Xuan to hang on his waist, and asked: "This woodcarved beast head has a strange image, it looks like some kind of Taoist magic weapon. The young man hung it around his waist, could it be that he was in his heart, or was there another reason?"
After more than ten days of contact, Li Xuan has an understanding of the character of the Zen Master of Zhizong, and knows that if he hadn't discovered the abnormality, he would not have asked himself so straightforwardly.
After hearing this, Zen Master Zhizong turned his head to look at Zen Master Zhicong and Miss Ling Long, and said solemnly: "It seems that it makes sense for you to coincide!" Li Xuan couldn't help but wonder when he heard this: "What could happen to coincide?" Ling Long, who had not said a word since he went up the mountain, suddenly took over the words and said with a faint smile: "I believe you already know that our Ling family has the skill of arranging the 'Phantom Array'. Seeing that Li Xuan nodded, he said again: "To cast the 'Phantom Array', you must be proficient in the Ling family's strange arts, so since I was a child, in addition to practicing martial arts and studying medical skills, I also have to study and practice some Taoist magic skills. However, my mother passed away early, so whenever I encounter such unclear questions, I always ask Zen Master Zhicong for advice. Zen Master Zhizong explained: "Learn from each other's strengths, gather the strengths of the people, turn them into their own, as long as they are connected with the Dharma, it is beneficial to the Buddha's light, and we Shaolin Temple has always paid attention to it." And Zhicong's younger brother was well versed in this way before he became a monk, so he undertook to pay attention to the world's strange arts...... Hehe...... That's why he had the ability to reply to Miss Ling. ”
Miss Ling Long continued, "That night, before you entered the Scripture Pavilion, I found this wooden beast head on your waist. I went back and looked through the classics, and found that this beast head was a magic weapon used to control people's minds in ancient times. But my knowledge and experience are shallow, and I dare not judge, so I asked Zen Master Zhicong...... After several days of observation and pondering, Zen Master Zhicong also confirmed that this wooden beast head is a magic weapon. When Li Xuan heard this, he laughed and said, "What do you mean, if I continue to hang this thing on my waist, will I be controlled by Yuan Tiangang's magic?" Ling Long nodded and said, "It should be like this." ”
Li Xuan laughed and said, "I often hear that most of the people who can be controlled by foreign arts are people of fame and fortune. These people are usually not strong-willed, have different thoughts, and rarely think about others except for themselves after encountering them, so they will be taken advantage of and fall into the net of control. ”
Hearing this, Zen Master Zhicong nodded and said, "Shaoxia is right. But the clever magic is not limited to controlling fame and fortune...... You might as well abandon it!" Li Xuan shook his head and said lightly: "As long as I have righteousness and do chivalrous things, why should I be afraid of such a side-by-side method! If it is really as the two of you said, I would like to see what Yuan Tiangang is capable of and what he can do to me!" Seeing that he was resolute, Zen Master Zhicong stopped speaking. However, Ling Long's face was gloomy, and he took a step forward, wanting to dissuade him a few more words, but when he saw Li Xuan's expression suddenly dimmed, he couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you?" Li Xuan said: "If you can get along with a few masters day and night, and go to Mount Tai at ease, it will be an excellent thing in life...... However, in the past ten days in the mountains, there is another important event in my heart. If it weren't for my own injury, I might have gone earlier. Therefore, before I go to Mount Tai, I must have done this first. ”
Miss Ling Long asked curiously, "I don't know what you have in mind?"
Li Xuan said: "Before I came, I already learned from others that someone set a trap to lure Shi Wanrou to the south in order to destroy the Tibetan Sword Villa. As he spoke, he briefly told how he met the wine monk, Mr. He, and Zhuge Dongfang.
When the three monks of Zhizong heard this, they were each muttering, but they heard Ling Long girl say: "It seems that you and I are really 'spiritual'!"
Li Xuan was puzzled and asked, "Miss Ling......, what is this?" Ling Long smiled and asked, "Do you mean to inform Shi Wanrou of the danger of this trip first, and then go to the Laba Taishan Heroes Conference?" Li Xuan nodded and said, "That's exactly what I meant." ”
When Ling Long heard this, he sighed and said, "This is also the purpose of my going up the mountain to find you this time. As he spoke, he took out a bloodstained Jinpa from his bosom and handed it over, and said in a deep voice: "This is the Flying Wing Peng Bird who followed Sister Shui and a few people to find Miss Rou...... I think something is in danger of them happening!"
Li Xuan took the Jinpa, unfolded it, and saw that there were dry blood stains on it, and wrote crookedly: The thief is very powerful, but we have rushed out of the Flying Goose Valley, and we urgently need to come and answer it. Water.
Seeing Li Xuan's solemn expression, Ling Long said again: "Before the Flying Wing Peng Bird that you called the Soaring Wind carried you, its companion had already carried Sister Shui and several others to find Shi Wanrou...... It is said that in terms of the spirituality and flight ability of the flying winged Peng Bird, after more than ten days, Shi Wanrou will definitely be found, and even return home. But it didn't fly back until dawn today, and its right wing was shot through two holes, and most of its feathers were lost. (To be continued.) )
