When Xie Xun woke up, he felt that the bed he was sitting on was shaking slightly. There was no sound in the room, but when he heard the whistling wind outside the porthole, it was obvious that he had reached the sea. 【Read the latest chapter】
Just as he was about to get out of bed, a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder. With Xie Xun's ability, he didn't even notice that there was anyone next to him, so he couldn't help but force his shoulders and use "lazy tying" to get rid of him.
"Brother Xie," Xie Xun suddenly relaxed after hearing this call. It turned out that the person next to him was Lu Yuan. It seemed that he had been watching over him since he passed out. Xie Xun couldn't help but feel grateful. Thinking back to when I first met Lu Yuan, the young man's voice always behaved like an adult, which made people feel a little funny. After several fights, Lu Yuan's internal strength was strong and mellow, and his boxing moves were so wonderful that most of this contempt was immediately eliminated. Later, I saw that although Lu Yuan was taciturn and practiced martial arts or boxing most of the time, he had a sophisticated way of dealing with things and looked at people and things deeply. By this time, Xie Xun had already treated him as a peer, and the initial slightness disappeared without realizing it. not see.
He was thinking about Lu Yuan's things, and Lu Yuan was also thinking about his own things.
Just now, Lu Yuan was staying by Xie Xun's side. He had nothing to do, just drinking tea and pondering the essence of boxing techniques. Suddenly, his body stopped, and he started to observe as if he had jumped out of the body to look at himself. This thought is like a fleeting thought, coming and going without a trace. Lu Yuan looked up and down, and saw that he looked like an old man in his seventies or eighties, sitting upright on a green bamboo chair, holding the sleeve of his right hand with his left hand to pick it up, and making a circle with his right hand, holding a cup to drink. This posture...why It just smells like pretentiousness? !
He let out a long sigh and put down the cup. Although Lu Yuan has just reached the top, he has already made a huge reputation in the world. It was in the temple that while presiding over the Shaolin Temple, he communicated with lay disciples all over the world. In this way, Lu Yuan's authority is inevitably increasing. Except for a few senior monks, the other middle-aged monks with round surnames do not dare to call him "Junior Brother" boldly. They all call him "Zhe Shi" to show their intimacy. The younger disciples even called him "Zhen Master Zhe Shi" without being famous.
Just as he was thinking this, Xie Xun woke up and put his thoughts aside to take care of Xie Xun.
Lu Yuan carefully explained the causes and consequences of Zhang Cuishan and his wife's suicide. Lu Yuan deliberately avoided the disputes between the eight sects, so the progress of the matter was not much different from the original work. The only difference is on Shaolin's side. The rights and wrongs between Shaolin and Wudang were clearly separated a few years ago. Although Wudang did not bow down openly, it also admitted that it was somewhat wrong. Therefore, at this Zhang Sanfeng's 100th birthday banquet, Shaolin did not make a gesture of "the three great monks forcing Wudang". Only the abbot went there with a few disciples and made a full gesture of celebrating his birthday.
Anyway, right and wrong have been made clear, and there must be an explanation after Wudang.
After finishing speaking, Xie Xun was not as excited as expected.
"Cause...effect, it is indeed cause and effect. If my brothers and sisters had not thought of harming others, then Cuishan would not have been caught between his senior brother and his wife. If Xie had not killed innocent people indiscriminately, there would not have been so many People have to slay demons and defend their way... In the final analysis, it's all about cause and effect! It's a pity that this karma should be repaid to me, a blind man! Why am I still alive despite my sins, and my sworn brother did not end well despite his heroic deeds?"
Xie Xun was just talking to himself and had no intention of talking to anyone else.
Lu Yuan watched from the side and understood that Xie Xun finally wanted to convert to Buddhism! Xie Xun himself is well-educated, well-versed in both civil and military affairs, and has a tenacious and stubborn character. Who can persuade such a person to believe in Buddhism? Only he can do it.
*********************
A small room made of half stone and half wood, a bright oil lamp, and an old monk wearing gray robes.
The old monk did not chant sutras or practice any martial arts. He just sat quietly under the flickering light, as if thinking about something.
Just as the bang of the third watch was ringing, someone knocked gently on the door twice.
"Master, Huijue would like to see you." A young novice opened the door and said.
"Let him come in and serve tea." The young monk responded, and after a while he brought in a middle-aged monk. He put down two large bowls of crude tea without saying a word, and each poured half a bowl of coarse tea. After putting down the teapot, he bowed and left.
After the young novice had gone away, the old monk took a sip from his tea bowl and asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Uncle Master," the monk Huijue saluted quickly and replied, "Uncle Master had previously told his disciples to pay attention to the movements of the Demon Sect. The disciple's eyeliner suddenly reported back, saying that the Wusan people and Five Elements Banners of the Demon Sect were all there. Rushing towards Guangmingding in a hurry, even Yin Tianzheng, the leader of Tianying Cult who is far away in Ningbo Mansion, is nowhere to be seen, so he must have gone to Guangmingding."
The old monk snorted, "The four heavenly kings of the demon sect, the Green-winged Bat King's whereabouts are mysterious, the purple-shirted Dragon King has long since left his hometown, the Golden-haired Lion King Xie Xun is unknown whether he is alive or dead, and the remaining one is the White-browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng! Now these demons The kids are all gathered at Guangmingding, and they must be discussing some major conspiracy! Do you have a way to find out?"
"Disciple... Disciple still has a few men at Guangmingding, but the time to deploy them is still short. Those people are secretly discussing the conspiracy, and they must be withdrawn. I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."
"Go ahead, I understand. I have my own opinion on this matter, you don't have to ask."
After Huijue left, the old monk paced the room several times with a gloomy face, and finally made up his mind. First, he left a letter for the young novice monk to hand over to the abbot tomorrow. Then he packed up a small baggage and put it on his back, and disappeared in a single bound.
The old monk's Buddhist name is Yuan Zhen, and he is a disciple of the Space Monk, the first of the four great Shaolin monks. After Kong Jian's death, Yuan Zhen gained the support of several senior masters of the Bodhidharma Academy and took control of a force. He was considered the leader of a powerful faction.
But what everyone doesn't know is that Yuan Zhen's lay name is Cheng Kun, who is Xie Xun's most hated enemy, Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand Cheng Kun.
Cheng Kun wanted to subvert Mingjiao and did everything possible to do so. He wanted to instigate the eight major sects to besiege the Mingjiao, and it has been very effective. When the time comes that he encourages the Shaolin sect to take the lead, it will naturally happen. His disciple Chen Youliang was a pawn he placed in the Beggar Clan to help him control the largest gang in the world. Years ago, Chen Youliang came up with a plan to weaken Mingjiao by removing fuel from the cauldron, and Yuan Zhen naturally agreed happily. So the Beggar Clan and the Shaolin Sect worked together, and some people started making noises from within, and demolished the Mingjiao Five Elements Flag to pieces. Except for the flag leader, most of the members of the Five Elements Banner have dispersed, and even a few of the deputy flag leaders have left.
Of course, this incident made Yuan Zhen feel happy, but she didn't expect that a few months later, the situation would change. After the Five Elements Banner was severely damaged, the natural forces shrank, and most of the vacated territory was occupied by various sects. One gave way to the other, and the contradictions invisibly weakened. What's more, there are fewer people in Mingjiao who are ambitious and want to rebel, and the rest are followers who eat vegetables. The friction with the various sects will naturally be reduced. After this back and forth, the various sects secretly promoted by Yuan Zhen besieged the Mingjiao, and there was a trend of disbanding!
This makes Yuan Zhen not angry!
