The famous Shaolin Temple stands at the foot of Shaolin Mountain. The name of Shaolin Temple is precisely because it was built in the forest under Shaolin Mountain, which means "a temple hidden in the dense forest under Shaolin Mountain". In this era of martial arts, although Shaolin has been closed for several years, there are still legends in the rivers and lakes that belong to Shaolin, and a sentence of "the world's martial arts out of Shaolin" reflects what kind of temple this is, and has become a martial arts holy place in the hearts of martial arts people in the world. Zhao Zhijing looked at the towering Shaolin Mountain, thinking about the Zhongnan Mountain of the Quanzhen Sect and couldn't help but feel: "Although today's Shaolin monks have disappeared in the rivers and lakes, I want Shaolin to close the mountain for several years and the Quanzhen Sect has become the number one faction in the world, but the world's first major faction seems a little frivolous, without a hundred years of precipitation like Shaolin, the foundation is insufficient, and the only masters who can handle it in the Quanzhen Sect are the seven sons of Quanzhen and himself and an unreliable uncle Zhou Botong." ”

Zhao Zhijing deposited Xiao Hei and his two long swords in the farmhouse below the mountain, and he stepped on the stone ladder of Shaomu Mountain in a green robe, looking at the stone ladder that had been somewhat polished and smooth, which was a witness of time and the accumulation of heritage. Zhao Zhijing walked to the Shaolin Temple on the mountain step by step like an ordinary person, until he saw five waterfalls rushing down on the opposite mountain, like the Milky Way falling in nine days. Turning a corner along the mountain road, I saw a temple with yellow walls and blue tiles in the distance, looking at the scene in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh "what a big temple", I walked in and saw a plaque hanging on the main entrance of the temple, there were three big characters on the plaque, called "Shaolin Temple", there were old trees standing in front of the door, and there were one hundred and eight stone steps inlaid with bluestone. Zhao Zhijing straightened his clothes slightly, stretched out his hand to support the Dao crown on his head, walked to the stone steps, and climbed the steps.

Walking up the one hundred and eight steps, Zhao Zhijing saw the door of the Shaolin Temple open, the inside was full of cigarette smoke, and the hall was deep. Zhao Zhijing just walked the steps, only walked a few steps forward, suddenly there was a monk inside, he quickly greeted him, and saluted: "This Taoist chief is invited, I don't know if all come to the temple, what do you see?" Zhao Zhijing returned the salute and said: "Zhao Zhijing, who has always heard the name of Shaolin Temple for a long time, has not been able to visit. Today, I passed through Dengfeng and came to visit the mountain. When the monk heard the words "Quanzhen Sect", his face couldn't help but change slightly, and then he glanced at Zhao Zhijing again, and said: "It turned out to be the Taoist of the Quanzhen Sect, please wait here for a while, and let the little monk go in." With that, he titheed again, turned around and went into the temple. Zhao Zhijing said: "There is labor." He also returned the salute. Seeing the back of the monk go away, Zhao Zhijing turned around, put his hands behind him, and looked at the scenery around Shaolin Temple.

After a while, a forty-year-old monk wearing a yellow monk's robe walked out, walked up to Zhao Zhijing, put his hands together and saluted, and said, "This Taoist is the Quanzhen Zhao Daochang! I am the empty view of Shaolin, please come with me." Zhao Zhijing walked into the Shaolin Temple with the air view, only to see the yellow courtyard wall of the Shaolin Temple, the green glazed tiles, shining in the sunlight A good Buddhist holy place. The two walked through the courtyard walls and came to a large hall, when an old monk wearing a big red robe and holding a string of red sandalwood beads and beards had turned gray and several monks who were about the same age as Kongjian ushered in. Walking in front of him, Kongjian pointed to the old monk in the middle and said: "Dao Chief, this is the abbot of this temple, Senior Brother Kongwen" and introduced these monks to Zhao Zhijing one by one. Zhao Zhijing returned the salute one by one.

In the abbot's monastery, there are several monks in yellow robes and a Taoist in green robes, and a fragrant tea with wisps of mist is placed in front of each other. Zhao Zhijing was talking to several Shaolin monks about the Xuan Sutra, and the Quanzhen Sect is a Taoist sect that respects the three religions. Since the founding of the religion by the patriarch Wang Chongyang, the Quanzhen Sect has absorbed some of the scriptures and ideas of Confucianism and Buddhism, claiming that the three religions are of the same stream and advocating the unity of the three religions. The Tao Te Ching, the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra, and the Book of Filial Piety are the main classics. When Zhao Zhijing first came to this world, he didn't have a basic martial arts foundation, and he couldn't even understand the basic mental method of Quanzhen, and those mysterious and mysterious languages were simply heavenly books for a person from modern times, in order to be able to understand these words, Zhao Zhijing soaked in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Quanzhen Sect to study those scriptures, and naturally understood the meaning of the three sects of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. At this time, talking to the great monks of Shaolin naturally does not seem to be lacking in cultivation, and sometimes his way of understanding will point out a different path for these great monks.

The words in the abbot's meditation courtyard gradually became smaller, and then I saw the abbot stand up and salute Zhao Zhijing: "Daoist Zhao's understanding of the meaning of my Buddhism is not under the old monk, and discussing the Buddhist scriptures with the Taoist chief today has benefited the old man a lot, and the old man has thanked him here." It's just that I don't know what advice I have when I grow up to the temple, and please make it clear that if you can do it, you will not refuse. After that, he looked at Zhao Zhijing with straight eyes.

Zhao Zhijing couldn't help but secretly rejoice when he heard Kongwen's words: "Thinking that I have been talking to you here for so long about the Buddhist scriptures, it is really useful, and the tone at this time has become very good." Zhao Zhijing stood up and saluted to Kongwen Ji: "Boy, come and love the classics of the three religions, I think my Chongyang Palace Scripture Pavilion is full of Taoist classics, and there are few Buddhist classics. I want to have the largest collection of Buddhist classics in the world is naturally the Shaolin Temple, the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, and the boy has the courage to come to visit, and wants to borrow all kinds of Buddhist scriptures from your temple to take a look. ”

Kong Wen looked at Zhao Zhijing's eyes that were shining with wisps of essence, frowned and thought: "This Zhao Dao Chang doesn't know if he really just came to study the Buddhist classics, or if he wants to steal my Shaolin's martial arts, don't I think my Shaolin is forced to close the mountain today because of the disaster caused by the former fire foreman Tuo stealing my temple's mastery?" Zhao Zhijing looked at Kong Wen for a long time and didn't answer, so he naturally thought that this great monk was worried that he had stolen their martial arts. The kid just wants to see all kinds of Buddhist classics, and he will definitely not read the various martial arts scriptures of your temple, if the abbot is not at ease, then I will say the titles of some Buddhist classics, and then the abbot will let the little master of your temple send them, and I will not go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of your temple."
