Shen Tianpeng was born in a family of Xiucai in the suburbs of Gusu, Suzhou. Although his father was full of poetry and books, he was proficient in Confucianism, and he was generous and benevolent, and he was quite famous in the local area. But after being disappointed in the examination room, he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, muddy and wasted his time. Shen Tianpeng's mother is a scholarly disciple, knowledgeable, wise on the outside and wise on the inside, diligent and thrifty, which has a great influence on Shen Tianpeng's life. It's just that I don't know if it's because of my father's frequent alcoholism and uncontrolled life, Shen Tianpeng has been weak and sick since he was born in his mother's womb, and he has struggled on the death line again and again. If it weren't for his mother's desperate struggle against Lord Yama, I'm afraid Shen Tianpeng would have died in infancy.

Fortunately, his mother, who has always been devout and worships God and Buddha, took Shen Tianpeng to Hanshan Temple to make incense when Shen Tianpeng was six years old, so that Shen Tianpeng had a chance to change his fate.

The mother worshipped the eighteen arhats and the shrines of the gods one by one in the temple, and drew lots to ask for hexagrams... During this time, Shen Tianpeng actually broke away from his mother's sight and wandered around the hall alone with the pilgrims. When stepping on the high threshold of a hall, he accidentally fell down when stepping on the steps outside the empty door, and was helped up by an old monk.

"Thank you for your help!" Shen Tianpeng folded his hands and thanked him.

"Doesn't the little donor look at his feet when he walks?" The old monk didn't expect that the little boy would fold his hands and thank him, so he asked more.

"I usually walk and still see, but just now when I went out of the hall, I was confused for a while, and the passers-by on both sides disturbed their sight, so there was this catastrophe, which made the master laugh!" When his father was sober, he would also teach his son what he had learned in his life, the Four Books and Five Classics, and the hundreds of schools of thought, so Shen Tianpeng could hear the Zen machine in the old monk's questioning.

When the old monk heard this, he was secretly surprised, and said to himself: "Just now the old man was meditating in the meditation room, and suddenly a spirit, as if he was in a hurry, just arrived here, and saw the little benefactor go out and fall and kneel... Helping up the little donor, the old man was relaxed at this time, and his internal urgency disappeared, is it not the will of heaven: the old man and the little donor have a master-apprentice relationship?

In the dark, there is a definite number of origins, and the one who helped Shen Tianpeng was actually the abbot of Huiling of Hanshan Temple in Gusu.

Since then, Shen Tianpeng has worshiped under the name of Abbot Huiling.

It is strange to say that since Shen Tianpeng practiced and became obsessed with Zen Taoist Buddhist scriptures and martial arts in the temple, his body has also become stronger, his body has also become healthy, and he is no longer harmed by illness. Motherhood naturally delights and comforts; Not to mention that the son was free from the disease, the mother did not want the son to follow in the footsteps of his father, and because of the setback of the scientific expedition, he was half awake and half drunk, half crazy and half stupid, and achieved nothing. So he let his son choose his own path in life.

Abbot Huiling found that Shen Tianpeng was not only smart and eager to learn Buddhist classics, but also a martial arts wizard, so he often took Shen Tianpeng to travel all over the world, visiting famous masters of boxing and kung fu to discuss the essence of martial arts. When he reached adulthood, Shen Tianpeng, who was introduced by the abbot of Huiling and worshiped under the head of the Dong family's gossip, has become famous and unique with his double palms and secret weapon kung fu. After being introduced, Zhou Zupei, the secretary of the Criminal Department, appreciated and recruited talents, and through several years of hard work, he achieved the Zhejiang Qing Officials of the Criminal Department Shilang Zhong (Zheng Wupin).
