Chapter 259: Penang Island

The ship sailed into the South Seas and anchored at a small island, the island is full of betel nut trees, clear water and sunny days, and betel nut on the beach, if it is placed in the future generations, this place will definitely be developed into a tourist attraction. www.biquge.info In this tourist resort, there is a magnificent temple called Shwedagon Temple.

This Shwedagon Temple is a very prestigious temple in the Nanyang area, because the presiding monk here is a disciple of the ancient Buddha of ten thousand years, and he is also the master of the overseas school. The "Four Uniques" of the Ten Gates of the South China Sea are practiced in this temple, and it can be said that this Shwedagon Temple is a major stronghold of overseas schools.

Now in this temple, the 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha muttered Arhat and his junior brother Elder Baojing, as well as his subordinate Yuan, the four peerless monks, Jiang Zhaohui and others all met Hua Chong and Zhihua here.

Zhihua has obviously been in contact with the 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha, and they seem very familiar with each other. Once you are seated in the house, you can get straight to the point.

The 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha said to Zhihua: "Lord Zhi, the situation in the South China Sea is a bit complicated now, the old monk and I have secretly contacted the five tigers and the nine strong in the South China Sea, and they all seem to be a little wavering. Now it can be determined that Li Qing is not in Nanyang, and he personally led the army to conquer Tianzhu. As you expected, the Nanyang area is now guarded by Cui Lang, but Cui Bolang is very cautious, only knowing that he is not in the capital city of Shenglong, and I still don't know where he is hiding. ”

Zhihua pondered: "This Cui Lang can lead the entire Nanyang sailor, he is not an ordinary pirate, he has a certain understanding of the situation of the ten gates of the South China Sea, and it is likely that he also feels a certain danger. That's why he hid and commanded in secret. Li Qing sent troops to Tianzhu, and those who intend to do something in Nanyang will definitely choose this time to do it, and he is the smartest way to do it. No matter what we do, for him, we are always in the light, and he is hiding in the shadows, ready to strike at any time and attack us!"

Hua Chong thought for a while and proposed: "Why don't we take the initiative, I heard that the Three Immortal Views are the biggest force supporting Li Qing among the Ten Gates of Nanyang, we can consider starting with the Three Immortal Views first, and see if we can lead Cui Bolang out!"

The Ten Thousand Years Ancient Buddha hurriedly shook his head and said: "This matter must not be done, the terrain of the Three Immortal Temples is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is difficult to pass just to the five checkpoints of the Three Immortal Temples." If we show our strength and make a surprise attack in one fell swoop, it may expose our strength, but it is a little unwise!"

Hua Chong wondered, "Why are these three immortals setting up so many ambushes?

The Ancient Buddha explained: "This pass is not an ambush, but someone guards, and it is natural for them to pass by, and others want to pass through, unless they fight all the way." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhihua and Hua Chong asked at the same time, "When was this level set up?"

Seeing that the two of them were so excited, the Ancient Buddha of Ten Thousand Years recalled for a moment: "This is about a year ago, the terrain of the Three Immortals Temple is already very dangerous, and those places were originally some natural barriers. More than a year ago, the three churches began to build a large number of construction and checkpoints, it seems that you said Zhaohui, right?"

Jiang Zhaohui, who is known as the copper-headed iron-armed hairless monster, agreed: "I said it, at that time, they held a banquet in the Three Immortals Temple, invited us eight monsters to participate in the meeting, and planned to let us join the Southern Tang Dynasty." A few of us went there once when we were there, and the checkpoint was being built. Later, we didn't talk about it, but the two brutes of Miao Lin and Han Bao had secretly taken refuge in them and plotted against me. Come to think of it, if the level had been repaired at that time, I was afraid that I would have died in the Three Immortals Temple!"

After listening to this, Zhihua asked Hua Chong: "Brother Hua Xian, did you also understand something?"

Hua Chong said: "This Cui wave should be hiding in the Three Immortals Temple!"

The 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha said: "You mean they built the checkpoint to protect Cui Bolang?"

"I don't know if it's to protect him, maybe there are others, and other things, but now it seems that the possibility of this Cui Bolang hiding in the Three Immortals Temple is still very great!"

Zhihua also thought so: "I agree with Brother Hua Xian's opinion, Cui Bolang has a heavy responsibility, and in addition to us, I am afraid that the Lu family brothers and Shang Huaishan have also set their sights on him." Destroying the Three Immortals in one fell swoop is the only way for other sects in the South China Sea to gain a firm foothold. Imagine that the Three Immortal Views have already gained power, even if the beggar gang is powerful, it is not as big as the Southern Tang Dynasty, even if they are willing to surrender, with the Three Immortal Views and these people in front, coupled with Shen Zhongyuan's caution, Shang Huaishan and they will not be reused, but will be suspicious. ”

Hua Chong said, "Do you want to contact the beggar gang?

"The louder we are, the more they can't sit still, as long as they move, we have a chance!"

The 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha said: "In this case, the old monk will rely on this old face to see what characters he can invite to help, cheer for a few people, and let these young people mess up!"

When Hua Chong heard this, he said to the 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha: "Senior, the martial saint gave me a letter, which was for me to deliver to the Yunxia Immortal Gu of the Purple Cloud Temple, saying that he wanted to ask the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest to help, I don't know where this Purple Cloud View is?"

The 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha said: "This purple cloud view is not far from here, if you want to go, I can take you there." ”

"How dare you bother your predecessors? ”

"I also want to go to the Purple Cloud Temple, this bamboo forest Seven Sages is also quite famous in the South China Sea, although it belongs to the Daomen, but it is not the Three Immortals Xiao Daocheng and the like. ”

"The Martial Saint also said that the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest are not those people, so I want to visit them in person. ”

Zhihua said: "Then I'll go to the beggar gang and contact the Shang gang leader to see if I can get their support." ”

"Okay, then let's split up and get together when we're done. ”

The rest of the people stayed behind in Dajin Temple, and Zhihua led his men by Jiang Zhaohui and got up to go to the beggar gang. Let Jiang Zhaohui lead the way, which can be regarded as an attitude of the 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha.

Hua Chong and the golden lantern swordsman Xia Suiliang followed the 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha to the Purple Cloud Temple. This Purple Cloud Temple is indeed not far from the Shwedagon Temple, leaving Binglang Island, walking forward for less than an hour, and coming to an island full of purple bamboo.

"The name of this island is Purple Bamboo Forest, and Purple Cloud View is in the bamboo forest on the island. ”

Hua Chong saw that the two islands were not far apart, but they had their own beautiful scenery, and couldn't help but praise: "This purple bamboo forest is simply like the Bodhisattva dojo back then, it is really a fairyland on earth!"

The 10,000-year-old ancient Buddha said: "That's why Yunxia Immortal Gu chose to practice here, and the name of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest was also derived from this." ”

After the three of them got off the boat, the ancient Buddha of 10,000 years led the way, entered the bamboo forest, only to hear the birdsong and the water, a piece of birds singing and flowers, the flowers rushed to see this beautiful scenery, as if intoxicated, almost a little stunned.

The Golden Lantern Swordsman suddenly said loudly: "Chong'er, be careful! This is the formation! Hurry up and concentrate on your strength, beware of losing your mind!"

Hua Chong was startled, and then he came back to his senses, and he was really a little confused just now, so he hurriedly used his skills silently to contain his mind. My mind must have been clear, and I instantly felt that my ears and eyes were clearer than just now.

At this time, a person's applause came from the bamboo forest, followed by a sweet female voice: "Two strong internal forces, this bamboo forest maze, can't trap the two, old Arhat, where are you sacred?"
