I saw Jiumozhihe bowed and thanked him: "'Non-nature, form, and emptiness are the true nature of the Tathagata.' The young monk was born with a stubborn nature and lacked the root of wisdom. Until today, he has no clear understanding."

At the moment when he was on the verge of death, he completely forgot about his own external appearance. His body, life and death were all in vain, and only his "heart" was real, thus he realized "emptiness" and "no dwelling". The true meaning of.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiumozhi suddenly struck out a "flaming knife" in front of him. The power of his palm was as small as smoke and as soft as gauze.

However, in Zhao Qing's perception, the power has not weakened at all. On the contrary, due to the unpredictable effect, it is even more difficult to guess the origin, and it is almost irresistible.

"Jun Zhao, if it weren't for your guidance, this young monk would not have been able to understand the changes in the flaming sword's 'Kong Jin'. It integrates the path of 'the heart is born without dwelling' in the Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra into the martial arts. middle."

Zhao Qing nodded. Fortunately, as she expected, after being guided by her to point out the principle of the unity of mind and spirit, what Jiumozhi realized was indeed martial arts, rather than the need to give up martial arts. That kind of Dharma.

Moreover, Jiumozhi's understanding is indeed astonishing. Relying on the influence of a large number of Buddhist concepts, he has accumulated a lot of knowledge and is very knowledgeable in this regard.

Buddhist martial arts takes "emptiness" as its ultimate purpose, while Taoist internal martial arts moves from "no stagnation and no hindrance" to "the realm of no distinction." The two approaches lead to the same goal. When they reach the highest point of practice, they are very similar, and they have the effect of drawing parallels.

The understanding of "emptiness" in martial arts also affects the progress and attainments of martial arts practitioners in Buddhist martial arts.

In the Tianlong era, internal energy for external use was divided into three types: real energy, virtual energy, and empty energy.

In martial arts, the so-called "beating a cow across a mountain" refers to the master's air-splitting palm and invisible divine fist, which can hurt people with "virtual strength"; martial arts such as "Flame Knife" and "Six Meridian Divine Sword" can use invisible swords. Learning is a more advanced magical skill, which is called "empty power".

The "emptiness" of Buddhism, or the "emptiness" of all things, is not non-existent or false, but emptiness without "substantial reality". Relative to 'there', it has the meaning of denying the existence of entity, but it is not 'nothing' or 'emptiness'.

"Empty Jin" is more sophisticated precisely because it combines the advantages of "real Jin" and "virtual Jin".

"The mind arises without abiding" means that no matter what situation it is in, the mind can arise naturally without attachment. If the mind is attached to something, as if it is rooted in something, it will not be able to effectively control everything.

Therefore, no matter where you are, your mind must not have the slightest attachment, so that you can be free at any time. This is "non-attachment", which is the true meaning of Buddhist martial arts.

Under Zhao Qing's guidance, Jiumozhi realized the secrets of the two martial arts, and made a qualitative improvement in the use of the flame knife.

Due to the thought of "no abiding and no attachment" in his mind, the empty energy of his palms flows freely, which changes the moves of his flaming sword, reaching the deep state of "no move" in one fell swoop.

Even the master of esoteric martial arts who created the "Flame Knife" was at least half as good as Jiumozhi in terms of skill, but could not gain half an advantage in moves.

While expressing gratitude and awe to Zhao Qing who pulled him out, Jiumozhi seemed to have broken the shackles. He kept thinking about the deeper meaning of the "Flame Knife" and murmured to himself:...

"The flame sword has substance and form, and is ever-changing, just like a real flame. Does this mean that the way of martial arts should be consistent with the nature of heaven and earth..."

Listening to Jiumozhi's new understanding, Zhao Qing was quite satisfied, and he realized all the secrets of the flame knife and understood the potential of this martial art.

At the same time, I couldn't help but think about whether I had looked down upon other martial arts students after improving my martial arts skills, and ignored the valuable martial arts concepts contained in them.

Jiumozhi thought immersedly for a while. When he caught a glimpse of Zhao Qing next to him, he couldn't help but shudder. He bowed again and said, "The layman has profound magic power and vast supernatural powers. If you don't give up, I am willing to follow you."

Zhao Qing's random moves gave him an incomparable feeling every time, especially the magical martial arts instruction at the end, which made him fall in love and willing to follow.

Random feeling.

In Jiumozhi's mind at this time, even if she was not a figure on the level of a god or a Buddha, she was not far behind.

"If you follow me voluntarily, you don't have to continue forever. Just three years."

Zhao Qing sensed that the other party's words were indeed sincere, nodded, turned around and walked ahead, towards Tianlong Temple.

The reason why the three-year period is set is because the time she can stay in this world is only three years.



Tianlong Temple is located to the north of Zhongyue Peak in Diancang Mountain outside Dali City. The official name of the temple is Chongsheng Temple, but the people in Dali are used to calling it Tianlong Temple. It has Cangshan Mountain on its back and faces the Ershui River.

The temple has three pavilions, seven floors, nine halls, and one hundred buildings. It is large in scale and exquisitely constructed. Even the famous mountain temples in Buddhist resorts in the Central Plains such as Wutai, Kaiyuan, Jiuhua, and Emei are rarely comparable. Located in southern Xinjiang, its name is not well known.

On the short ten-mile journey to the gate of Tianlong Temple, Jiumozhi watched Zhao Qing flip through the three volumes of secret books left by Murong Bo while using all the Shaolin stunts that reached the state of trance, but he didn't have any idea in his heart. Not the slightest bit surprised.

In his opinion, all this was just Zhao Qing's expected performance, and there was nothing unexpected about it.

As for the nine Tibetan followers, they had already left under Jiumozhi's order to return home first.

"Monk, do you still want the Six Meridian Divine Sword of Tianlong Temple?" Zhao Qing walked directly into the gate of Tianlong Temple, put away the three volumes of secret books, followed the leading monk, and transmitted the message to Jiumozhi.

"It is rumored that Dali Duan's 'Six Meridians Divine Sword' can emit six kinds of internal forces from its fingers and cross them. Its power is unparalleled in the world."

Jiumozhi thought about it for a while and replied through a message: "However, now the young monk's flame sword has no form and no trace. Even if he switches to the Six Meridians Divine Sword, because the internal strength is no longer so matched, the gain will probably be even greater. micro."

"However, the young monk was so kind and kind that he did not dare or forget Mr. Murong's gift of excellent martial arts secrets. If I could obtain the sword manual and burn it in front of Mr. Murong's grave as a reward, it would be considered as fulfilling a lifelong wish. "

Zhao Qing chuckled and said, "Oh? Don't you want to use this as an excuse to peek at Murong's martial arts secrets in the "Huan Shi Shui Pavilion" in Shenhe Village? "

Jiumozhi's face changed slightly and he chanted the Buddha's name, but he acquiesced and did not dare to argue. ….

"Actually, Murong Bo is not dead. He didn't have many good intentions when he gave you the Shaolin secret book."

Zhao Qing saw that Jiumozhi did not dare to lie, so he prompted: "Did you know that Gusu Murong is actually a descendant of the Murong family of Xianbei, and has always wanted to restore the Yan Kingdom?"

Jiumozhi clasped his hands together and said, "The young monk just found out today that his family was originally the queen of the royal family. Mr. Murong has never gone west."

As for the possibility that Zhao Qing deliberately deceived him, Jiumozhi naturally had some suspicions, but out of awe, he did not say anything about it.

"I don't know how many years ago, the queen of the king and grandson thought about restoring the country all day long, which is also speechless." Zhao Qing said lightly and reminded:

"When Murong Bo deliberately mentioned the One Yang Finger and the Six Meridians Divine Sword to you. Today, as the Tubo Imperial Master, you come to Tianlong Temple to demand the temple's treasure. If it triggers a conflict between the two countries, Murong can Take advantage of the chaos and profit from it.”

Speaking of which, Jiumozhi was too naive when he was young. After being deceived by Murong Bo for a few days and given some secrets, Jiumozhi regarded him as a friend and never forgot him in his heart.

But in fact, Murong Bo did not regard Jiumozhi as a friend at all. He never mentioned it to Murong Fu and others, and no one in his family knew about it.

Perhaps when Murong Bo mentioned Dali Duan's martial arts to Jiumozhi, he really just mentioned it casually, but judging from the result, it did cause a conflict.

If Jiumozhi captures Duan Zhengming or incinerates Duan Yu, it will be an irresolvable conflict.

"In addition, he has been pretending to be dead for many years. As long as someone secretly reveals that you have secretly learned martial arts from Shaolin Temple, he can also instigate Tibet and Song Dynasty to fight." Zhao Qing saw the other party thoughtful and added on the side.

In the world of Tianlong, Murong Bo, Xuanci, Ye Erniang, Yun Zhonghe and others are her

Some of the more disgusting characters.

However, Zhao Qing did not spend time specifically to deal with their ideas, but was prepared to let others do it for him. Jiumozhi was a good candidate.

After Jiumozhi made a breakthrough, he should have some advantages against Murong Bo. If he faced several other people, he would naturally be able to capture him easily.

"Mr. Murong gifted me his skills, does he really have malicious intentions?"

Jiumozhi was a man of extraordinary wisdom. He immediately recalled the situation more than twenty years ago, searched for doubts, and understood that Murong Bo's gift of skills at that time was indeed suspicious.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Zhao Qing skipped this topic and continued to talk about the Six Meridians Divine Sword, saying: "There is no need to mention the visit to Tianlong Temple this time to obtain the Sword Scripture for Murong Bo."

"In my opinion, the value of Dali Duan's Yiyang Finger, which can heal injuries and save people, and even the inner strength of Kurong Zen Kung Fu, is not inferior to that of the Six Meridians Divine Sword. If we can learn from each other, maybe we can gain some insights. .”

The six meridians of the Six Meridians Divine Sword are the six meridians of the hand: Taiyin Lung Meridian, Jueyin Pericardium Meridian, Shaoyin Heart Meridian, Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian, Yangming Large Intestine Meridian, and Shaoyang Triple Burner Meridian.

According to Zhao Qing's inference, the main purpose of practicing the Six Meridians Divine Sword is purely to use internal force. That is to say, the internal force cultivated by Yiyang Finger is transformed into six types of Qi with slightly different attributes, giving it different sword Qi characteristics.

The Six Meridians Sword Qi Wheel Transporter, the properties of the sword Qi are constantly changing, making it difficult to deal with. Coupled with its corresponding six sword techniques, it is also the most superior move in the world. When combined with each other, the power is extremely amazing. ….

But for her, this is no longer a profound truth. She realized a long time ago that as long as she spends some time, she can create a similar sword energy martial arts.

On the other hand, as the Yi Yang Finger at the front of the Six Meridians Divine Sword, although its power is just an ordinary superior martial arts, its healing ability ranks among the top in Jin Yong's world.

If it can be integrated into Shen Zhao Gong, it can be said to be even more powerful and the effect will be even greater.

As for the Kurong Zen skill, it is said to be related to Sakyamuni.

"Existence is permanent and impermanent, and the two trees withered and flourished, north, south, west and east, are neither false nor empty." The World Honored Sakyamuni passed away between the two trees of Sala. There are two trees in the east, west, south, and north. The two trees on each side are one. One flourishes and one withers, which is called "four withers and four with glory."

According to the Buddhist scriptures: the twin trees in the east mean "permanence and impermanence", the twin trees in the south mean "pleasure and non-happiness", the twin trees in the west mean "self and non-self", and the twin trees in the north mean "purity and nothingness". net".

The lush and glorious tree shows the signs of Nirvana: permanence, happiness, self, and purity; the withered and withered tree shows the signs of the world: impermanence, no happiness, no self, and no purity. The Tathagata Buddha enters and annihilates between these eight realms, meaning it is neither withered nor prosperous, neither false nor empty.

Kurong, the top master of Tianlong Temple, only practiced this technique to the state of "half withered and half glorious", but it made his face half withered and half glorious, half like a baby, half like a skeleton, which obviously contains extremely profound martial arts secrets. .

Zhao Qing couldn't help but have doubts, thinking that if you practice this skill at the highest level, maybe you can rejuvenate your youth like the "Eternal Life Eternal Spring Kung Fu"? Or should we say, Nirvana and rebirth?



Zhao Qing and Jiumozhi entered from Ruihe Gate on the left side of Tianlong Temple and passed through Huangtianmen, Qingdu Yaotai, Aowanjing, Doumu Palace, Sanyuan Palace, Tushita Temple, and Yuhuayuan. , Prajna Terrace, and then through a long corridor to the outside of Muni Hall.

Muni Hall is the residence of the four elders of Tianlong Temple. The whole body is made of pine wood. The wooden doors and pillars are not peeled. It is natural and simple. It is completely different from the splendid halls along the way.

The abbot of Tianlong Temple was a skinny monk. He heard footsteps outside and went out to greet them. When he saw Zhao Qing, although he was quite surprised, he did not stop him and entered with the two of them.

Unlike the Shaolin Temple, which strictly prohibits female visitors, the entire Dali royal family believes in Buddhism, and it is common for concubines and princesses to go to the temple together to pray for blessings.

Zhao Qing walked into the Muni Hall and saw four monks sitting on four futons on the east side of the room. Three monks were facing outside, two of them looked haggard, the other was strong and tall; the third monk was thin, his face facing the inner wall, motionless.

"The reputation of Tianlong is admired by the young monk Su

, I am very happy to see the solemn treasure today. "

Jiumozhi bowed to Master Kurong and said: "Senior Kurong, as well as all the eminent monks and junior monks, sent a letter a few days ago. They want to ask for the Sword Sutra from your temple. They will be burned in front of Mr. Murong's tomb, following the example of hanging the sword on Wu Jizha's tomb. The legacy."

"However, after being enlightened by this layman Zhao Qing, the young monk suddenly realized that he has decided not to seek anything anymore. I hope you will forgive me for my previous offense."

Ben Yin and others were all very surprised when they heard this. They looked at each other, feeling confused and puzzled in their hearts. ….

Being able to stop Jiumozhi from seeking scriptures means that he has surpassed the opponent in terms of the meaning of the scriptures or in martial arts.

However, Maharaja Mingwang is a world-famous eminent monk, and according to his previous letter, he has also practiced extremely advanced martial arts. How much advanced cultivation is required to "enlighten" him?

Duan Yu, who was sitting in front of Kurong, heard this unexpected reversal and couldn't help but quietly turned his head and looked away from Master Kurong, wanting to see what kind of master he was, who helped solve the problem of Tianlong this time. The temple is facing a crisis.

Ku Rong faced the wall and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "The Ming King and the layman Zhao came from afar, but Lao Na did not greet them from afar and did not set up a fasting to welcome the wind. But I don't know what the purpose of this layman's visit to this temple is?"

Zhao Qing replied calmly: "Firstly, I want to see the unique skills of the Duan family in Dali; secondly, I heard that the Prince of Zhennan once accidentally ate a red clam and needs his help."

With the characteristics of her Ming Yu Gong, she can absorb a few infuriating energy from Yiyang Finger and Kurong Zen Kung Fu for study.

As for Duan Yu and Manggu Zhuha, who is known as the King of Poisons, this is the real purpose of Zhao Qing's visit.

Judging from the power and poisonous effect of the Ice Silkworm Poison Palm of You Tan in the original work, in terms of cold attributes alone, the Ice Silkworm is not at all inferior to her Ming Yu Gong at this time, and may even be better.

The combination of the Shenzu meridian with the ice silkworm can generate internal energy ranging from yin to cold; if combined with the red clam, it can generate internal energy ranging from yang to heat.

The high-quality Zhiyang Qi is a very important reference for her in the process of sublimating the Yang attribute of Shenzhao Gong.
