About half an hour later, Hou Junji returned to the teahouse with a grin. He came to send compensation to the teahouse shopkeeper on behalf of Li Shimin. The money is not much, a total of five taels of silver, but it is enough to make the teahouse shopkeeper lie on the ground with tears streaming down his face, and shout "King Qin's thousand years of life" in the direction of Chang'an City.

As for the guests who died in the teahouse, Li Shimin also made arrangements, just waiting for the arrival of the Tang officials who captured Yuzhou, and he would be properly compensated by the imperial court.

No matter who Li Shimin's hand is for, anyway, he can at least have this heart, and he deserves to be commended after all.

With Hou Junji, there were also Master Zhicao, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, and several monks in the temple, who helped clean up the aftermath in the teahouse, and did a ritual like a decent, and the soul of the unjustly died.

When everything stopped, it was getting dark, and the monks of Shaolin Temple were going to return to Songshan. Diao Xiaosi pushed the boat down the river and proposed to Master Zhicao that he wanted to stay in the temple for two or three days, and was warmly welcomed by the abbot of Shaolin Temple.

In fact, in addition to Master Zhicao, more than a dozen other Shaolin Temple monks, including Master Shanhu and Tanzong Monk, were very unimpressed by Diao Xiaosi's despicable behavior of robbing His Royal Highness King Qin while the fire was on fire.

But the abbot is the abbot after all, far from being comparable to those monks who only know how to chant scriptures and worship the Buddha, with a broken boulder on their chest and an elm head on their chest.

Master Zhicao knows very well that the person who dares to extinguish Wang Renze's arrogance in one acre and three points of land in Yuzhou, and who dares to knock Li Shimin's bamboo pole in front of him is definitely not an ordinary person. Thinking about the eyes of His Royal Highness King Qin looking at Diao Xiaosi, it is not difficult to understand how iron the relationship between people is, how can a character like this miss out?

Therefore, as soon as Diao Xiaosi put forward his request to live in the Shaolin Temple for a few days, Master Zhicao agreed without a word, ignoring the zombie faces of Master Shanhu, Tanzong Monk and others next to him.

Along the way, Master Zhicao and Diao Xiaosi talked and laughed, and focused on introducing the humanistic allusions of Shaolin Temple.

Diao Xiaosi then knew that the original Shaolin Temple also has a great background, when the ancestor of Bodhidharma came to the Middle Earth from Tianzhu, it was here to participate in Zen practice and enlightenment, and accepted Master Hui Ke as a disciple, since then Buddhism Zen Buddhism has spread all over the world, and Shaolin Temple has won the reputation of "Zen ancestral garden".

That night, Diao Xiaosi stayed in the Shaolin Temple. Early the next morning, Master Zhicao arranged for a sharp-toothed little monk in the temple, Jueyuan, to be Diao Xiaosi's guide and lead him to wander around the mountains.

Diao Xiaosi took a turn in the temple, and the Tianwang Palace, the Thousand Buddha Palace, the Daxiong Treasure Palace, and the Lixue Pavilion were all finished.

He originally wanted to stay in the Scripture Pavilion for a while longer, looking for two interesting books to flip through. Who knew that he met an old sweeping monk who didn't understand the amorous feelings, opened his mouth and closed his mouth and went around, all of which were "knowledge and obstacles", and also turned out two copies of "Azahan Sutra" and "Lotus Sutra", and persuaded him to read more Buddhist scriptures and be less angry.

Diao Xiaosi felt disappointed - isn't he afraid that Lao Tzu will steal the mastery of Shaolin Temple, why do you say it so high-sounding? With the heart of a monk, I really want to give him two spring palace pictures.

He left the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in a huff, and let Monk Jueyuan lead him to the stone cave where the Bodhidharma Patriarch had been facing the wall for nine years.

The stone cave is on the middle peak of the five milk peaks, and there is nothing special about a hole in the square from a distance. There is a small lawn outside the cave, the thick shade covers the sun and does not see the sky, and inside is the place where the Bodhidharma patriarch participates in meditation and enlightenment.

Monk Jueyuan also said the allusion of Bodhidharma Patriarch crossing the river with a reed and Master Hui Ke breaking his arm to seek the Dharma, Diao Xiaosi heard it very interesting, so he wanted to go to the Bodhidharma cave to sit down and try if he could understand something like Bodhidharma Patriarch.

Monk Jueyuan knew that Diao Xiaosi was a distinguished guest invited by the abbot, so it was indispensable to pay respect.

Diao Xiaosi walked into the Dharma Cave and saw a vague figure on the wall of the cave, and couldn't help but wonder: "Little monk, what is this messy and black thing?"

Monk Jueyuan's face turned white all of a sudden, and he sweated on his forehead and said, "Amitabha, sin and sin...... Childe, this is the legendary Shadow Wall Stone. At the beginning, the ancestor of Bodhidharma was in this stone cave to participate in meditation and enlightenment for nine years, and unconsciously reflected his shadow into the stone wall, and finally cultivated the positive fruit to break the wall and get out of the pass. ”

Diao Xiaosi chuckled and said, "I'll just ask casually, you don't need to be so nervous, right?" He sat facing the shadow wall and stone, posing as a high-ranking monk, and put his hands together and pretended to say: "Good, good--there was Dharma in the past, and there is Xiaosi today; you are the grandmaster, I am a scoundrel; Wishing you prosperity, bring the red envelope!"

He was happily speaking, and suddenly looked at the shadow wall stone and was stunned for a while, vaguely feeling that the figure on the stone wall seemed to have been seen somewhere, but it was not all the same.

Monk Jueyuan heard Diao Xiaosi speak loudly at the shadow wall stone of Bodhidharma Ancestor, and his legs were weak.

Shaolin Temple is also a well-known ancient temple of Zen Buddhism, every year to visit the Buddha and make a wish to the dignitaries do not know how many, which is not respectful and pious to the Buddha, before leaving a considerable amount of incense money?

In order to prevent Diao Xiaosi from continuing to talk nonsense about the shadow wall stone, he had to tactfully urge: "Gongzi is not a member of Buddhism, it's good to have a look at the Dharma Stone Cave, why don't I take you to another place." ”

Unexpectedly, Diao Xiaosi's eyes stared straight at the shadow wall stone, and the monk Jueyuan called a few times before he woke up like a dream and said, "Don't speak, this son is participating in Zen and enlightenment." ”

Monk Jueyuan was stunned, his heart was full of slander, and he was secretly anxious, for fear that Diao Xiaosi would do something out of the ordinary in the Dharma Cave. He is a distinguished guest invited by the master of Zhicao, even if he causes trouble, he will probably be fine, and he will be the one who will be beaten and punished when the time comes.

Fortunately, he waited outside the cave for a long time, only to see Diao Xiaosi sitting honestly in the cave, staring at the shadow wall stone without blinking, his brows slowly twisted into a knot, with a thoughtful expression.

Monk Jueyuan's heart relaxed slightly, and he couldn't help asking, "Childe, could it be that you see something from the shadow wall stone?"

Diao Xiaosi replied absentmindedly: "I saw the sky full of stars......

"The sky is full of stars?" It seems that this sentence contains the mystery of infinite Zen machines-

However, when Jueyuan cheered up and looked at the shadow wall stone, he had to admit that whether it was looking up and down, looking left and right, or looking horizontally and vertically, looking crookedly, he just couldn't see where the image on the stone wall could be related to the stars?

Looking at him, he didn't feel a little dizzy, and the shadow found that there were many small stars floating around in front of him, and he suddenly realized.

Suddenly, Diao Xiaosi shouted without looking back: "Quickly bring me a pen and paper!"

Monk Jueyuan scratched his bald head in amazement, I don't know which one Diao Xiaosi is singing? Barren mountains and mountains, where to find him paper and pen?

Diao Xiaosi quickly thought of this, and suddenly pulled himself up and rushed out of the stone cave, breaking a branch casually, no matter how awkward it was to write on the ground, he kept scribbling like a demon.

Monk Jueyuan leaned over suspiciously, and saw that the ground was full of characters and patterns that he couldn't understand, and occasionally a few words he knew, but he didn't know why.

Diao Xiaosi was completely immersed in his own worldly realm, and he didn't realize that the little monk was standing behind him.

At this moment, in his eyes, the shadow wall stone in the Dharma Stone Cave seemed to turn into a huge star array, which was static at first, but then gradually flowed and operated, forming a bright starry sky in his mind.

However, this star array from the shadow wall stone of Dharma Cave has a completely different origin and artistic conception from Diao Xiaosi's understanding from the Tianluo astrolabe.

This difference can only be understood but not spoken. Every time Diao Xiaosi took a second look, a similar feeling became even stronger.

He still didn't know what the use of this star map derived from the shadow wall stone of the Dharma Stone Cave was, but since they had been in the cave for nine years before leaving such an image, it must be a treasure. Who can guarantee that there will not be a secret map of Tianzhu treasure hidden here?

However, this star map is unusually large and too complicated, vaguely like the seventy-two Earth Evil Star Array, but the difficulty of cracking it is almost more than any Tianluo Star Array that Diao Xiaosi has ever comprehended. Until it was getting dark, he still couldn't figure out the slightest clue, and a large number of deduction calculations were constantly overturned and rebuilt.

Monk Jueyuan couldn't help but worry when he saw this, for fear that Diao Xiaosi would enter the magic barrier, so he couldn't help urging him to hurry back to the temple to eat.

Diao Xiaosi was impatient when he heard this, so he simply drove the little monk back to the temple, and finally ended up with a clean ear.

In the next few days, Diao Xiaosi spent day and night with the Dharma Shadow Wall Stone, and the poor little lawn outside the stone cave was painted and smeared by him, wiped and painted, and took off more than a dozen layers of skin back and forth.

He originally planned to only play in Songshan for a day or two, but at this time, he had already thrown this plan out of the clouds. Songshan is known as Zhongyue, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and picturesque, and it is indeed good to stay for a few more days. But there are two things that make Diao Xiaosi very dissatisfied, one is that the mountains are full of monks, not to mention young and beautiful girls, and even old nuns are not seen.

Diao Xiaosi can still work hard to overcome this shortcoming, but there is another problem that makes him unbearable - for many days, he hasn't eaten a bite of meat, so that he can't help but light up when he sees sparrows jumping on the tree.

On this day, the sun rises in Songshan Pass, and the morning bell startles the birds. Diao Xiaosi touched his shriveled stomach and got up from the ground with a disgraced face. He walked through a grove of trees, came to the creek, washed his face, and waited for Monk Jueyuan to bring the steamed buns.

But when I thought of it, there was no accident that in addition to steamed buns, breakfast was millet porridge, clear soup and little water to wash the intestines and slim down, Diao Xiaosi was not energetic, and he was full of thoughts that he must go to the bottom of the mountain to rectify the delicious food later, Yellow River vinegar fish, called chemical chicken, roast suckling pig...... The more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and the more he thought about it, his cold thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a dog barking from the grass on the other side of the stream.

Diao Xiaosi didn't want to grab a stone and threw it into the grass, scolding: "Shut up, let Lao Tzu think about what meat tastes like?"

The stone was thrown extremely accurately, and a whimper sounded in the grass on the opposite bank, and a big black dog with a dark and shiny light jumped out, glaring at Diao Xiaosi menacingly.

Diao Xiaosi said angrily: "What are you staring at Lao Tzu for? Believe it or not, I stewed you......

Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up with a green and faint light, the anger on his face disappeared, and he slowly stood up and showed a harmless and friendly smile towards the big black dog......
