Mengshan is called "Liantai Mountain" throughout the Central Plains. It is said that the Buddha taught sutras here for seven years, and there was an endless stream of people coming to listen to sutras every day. On the day before the Buddha left, the entire Mengshan Mountain turned into a huge lotus pedestal. The old people say that the mountain soul has gone with the Buddha, leaving only the Mengshan Mountain that looks like a lotus sitting on a lotus. The current Jialan Temple is where the Buddha lectured.
Originally, Tianjisou wanted to bypass Mengshan Mountain and continue moving forward. When he was young, he had been greatly favored by Zi Wuyu, the abbot of Jialan Temple of the previous generation, and practiced in front of the old monk for several years. Later, he established another sect due to other matters. But he has always maintained a good relationship with Jialan Temple, but the old monk Ziwuyu once told him that he had no master-disciple relationship with him and would never see him again in the future. Now the old monk has passed away, but decades have passed. Those who were once familiar with him have left here one by one, and this place has become less important.
However, the appearance of Monk San Duan finally reminded him of something that had been troubled in the past few days. It seems that the relics of Master Ziwuyu, the previous abbot of Jialan Temple, will be released soon. Although he had no intention of fighting for it, they Tianji received news that someone was going to snatch the relics at this Daoguo Conference. Zi Wuyu was the spiritual leader of the martial arts people of the previous generation. Even though he was dead, how could his relics be so ruined? Tianjisou Ben had already sent his eldest disciple Chu Mu to help Jialan Temple protect the relics. However, the appearance of Monk San Duan made Tianjisou feel slightly uneasy. It seemed that something big was about to happen in Jialan Temple!
They marched for another half day and finally arrived at the gate of the outer temple of Jialan Temple. At the gate of the temple, there were more than a dozen young novices registering the names of the visitors, and there were two big men like King Kong on the left and right of the temple gate, glaring at them angrily. This Jialan Temple is different from other temples. It is divided into an outer temple and an inner temple. The outer temple is a place for lay people to burn incense and worship Buddha. It has a pleasant scenery and looks like a Buddhist holy place. Only a few dozen people in the world know that Jialan Temple has an inner temple called Xiaoxitian. This inner temple is only for those virtuous eminent monks who have given up worldly affairs and are devoted to understanding Buddhism. It is difficult for idlers to find the location of the inner temple in this vast outer temple, let alone go in.
Tianjisou smiled slightly and said to Du Jie next to him: "Look at the two big men on the left and right of the temple gate. They are two of the four famous Vajras of Jialan Temple. These four people are said to be unrivaled in pushing eight hundred people. They are real martial arts practitioners." Experts in martial arts. When Master Sansi passed by Duanlang Mountain, these four people were working as bandits on the mountain. I don’t know what method the old monk used to convince these four people to take the Temple Protector King Kong of Jialan Temple."
Just as he was talking, a young novice monk saw Tianjisou and Du Jie here, hurriedly ran over, and then gave a salute: "Amitabha, the donor wants to enter the temple? The temple has been busy in recent days. If you want to burn incense to fulfill your vows, you can go there." Come back on the fifteenth of this month."
Tianjisou smiled loudly and said to the young novice: "This young master is polite. My master and disciple are not offering incense to fulfill their wishes. Please go and tell Master Sansi that my old friend Zhou Li wants to see you."
After hearing this, the little novice suddenly realized: "It turns out that he is a friend of the abbot. Please wait a moment and let me go and report it." After saying that, he turned around and ran away. As soon as he ran out, he was picked up by something. , and then I heard the loud sound of the urn: "This distinguished guest is handed over to our brothers, you can do whatever you need to do!" After saying this, he threw the little novice behind him. The little novice fell back to the place where he had just registered in a daze.
Only then did Du Jie come back to his senses and look at the people coming. They were the two Vajras guarding the door. The tall man in front of him had shiny black skin, a pair of tiger eyes, and a beard as long as one finger. This big man took a step forward, and then clasped his fists: "I didn't know Mr. Zhou from Tianji Sect was here. Forgive me for not being able to welcome you from a distance!"
Tianjisou returned the favor and said, "It turns out to be King Kong Po Dharma. I'm old and polite now."
Pofa Jingang continued: "Master Chu Mu, your disciple, arrived at the temple half a month ago. The abbot originally thought that your husband would not come again this time. Please allow my two brothers to take you into the temple on behalf of the abbot!"
Tianjisou smiled casually: "You two are too polite."
Just as he was talking, the temple door suddenly opened wide, and a group of monks walked out, led by a fat old monk. This monk was more than seven feet tall. The wrinkles on his face were layered one on top of another, and his eyebrows almost dropped to his cheeks. Her eyes were so old that she could hardly open them. There were two young novices next to her, tremblingly supporting her. She was panting and looked very tired.
The old monk walked to the door and looked around, and saw Tianjisou beside Pofa King Kong. He shouted over there with great joy: "Amitabha, Mr. Zhou, you are indeed here!"
When Tianjisou saw the fat old monk, he hurriedly got off his horse, then took two steps to come to the monk and lifted up his clothes. He was about to kneel down when he was helped by the big monk: "Mr. Zhou, don't do this, hurry up and follow the poor." The monk went to the meditation room to talk about it."
Tianjisou seemed to be following the monk very well. The muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch, and he tried his best to control his emotions. Finally, he let out a long breath, put his hand on the monk's arm and said, "Master Sansi, you're fine. After decades of separation, the master’s style remains the same.”
This person is the current abbot of Jialan Temple. After listening to Tianjisou's words, Master Sansi shook Tianjisou's hand with trembling hands: "Yes, we have been separated for decades, and we are already this old when we meet again. I’m old, but it’s enough for me to see you before I die, monk.”
"Master, if you are there, come and let me introduce someone to you." Tianjisou turned around and called Du Jie over: "Come and pay homage to Master Sansi."
Du Jie did not dare to be careless, so he knelt down in front of San Si and shouted: "Junior Du Jie pays homage to Master San Si. Master has often talked about you on the way here."
He thought twice and looked at Du Jie, then turned back and looked at Tianjisou: "I wonder who this young hero is?"
Tianjisou laughed and said, "This is Du Jie, the grandson of the old Marshal Du Wei. I thought he was a prodigy in shooting, so I took him under my sect and planned to become a closed disciple."
Sansi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he raised his thick hand to touch the back of Du Jie's head. He didn't know what he touched, but he smiled and said again and again: "Okay! Okay! Okay! My dear nephew, come to my meditation room with your master to talk." , I heard that Marshal Du Master recently returned to the court, and you Du Jie is a hero of the court."
Du Jielian said he didn't dare, and the group turned around and walked into the temple.
The main entrance of Jialan Temple is one hundred and eight steps away from the Main Hall. The golden body of the Buddha in the main hall is 18 feet tall. It was carved by a thousand-year-old strange stone on Feilai Peak. The first abbot of Jialan Temple arrived five hundred years ago. It took five generations for the fifth abbot to finally carve this giant Buddha, and then the court built the entire Jialan Temple around this giant Buddha. It is said that the strange stone on which the giant Buddha was carved was the place where the Buddha lectured.
Du Jie followed Tianjisou into the temple and looked up to see the Main Hall in front of him. What a majestic majestic palace! The closer I get, the smaller I feel. What kind of temple is this? This is simply the real Western Leiyin Temple. Almost all of the hundreds of pillars surrounding this temple require three people to hug each other, and the main entrance is even more than three feet high. The roof of the temple towers into the clouds. It is unknown how many skilled craftsmen and how much manpower and material resources it took to build it like this five hundred years ago. Treasure Palace. At the main entrance of this palace, Du Jie lamented the insignificance of human beings.
Monk Sansi and Tianjisou helped each other walk towards the abbot's Zen room. This scene was clearly seen by many people who had registered at Jialan Temple, including a Taoist with an eagle nose and leopard eyes and a scholar with a feather fan and silk scarf. The two people watched from a distance as Tianjisou and Monk Sansi walked into the Zen room.
The Taoist with an eagle-nosed and leopard-like eyes said to the scholar: "Sir, this is not good. Tianjisou Zhou Li actually came to Jialan Temple. This old man is not so easy to mess with!"
The young man with a feather fan and silk scarf looked at the group of monks in front of him and snorted coldly: "Huh, what are you afraid of? My father is the fourth junior brother of the old monk Sansi. Zi Wuyu agreed at the beginning, and the relics belong to our Xie family. Uncle Shi, don’t panic. Besides, if others don’t know the details of Tianjisou, how could I not know that this old guy is obviously Zi Wuyu’s disciple, and he was kicked out of the mountain by the old monk for some unknown reason. , and made him swear a solemn oath that as long as Zi Wuyu lives, he will not set foot on Jialan Temple."
When the Taoist heard that Tianjisou was Zi Wuyu's disciple, his hands trembled, and the dust in his hands fell directly to the ground. He didn't care and asked hurriedly: "What? Zhou Li is Zi Wuyu's disciple? How is this possible? Everyone in the world knows that he is a student of Guangfa Tianzun Feng Wuhen from North Kunlun Creation Peak, where did this news come from, Master?"
The young master in Yushan Lunjin sneered: "This matter can't be hidden from the world, and it can't be hidden from my Xie family. This is what my father told me personally, and it is absolutely correct. When Zhou Li was studying at Jialan Temple, he followed Sansi Make good friends, he comes here just because he wants to share a relic, people are still greedy after all!"
After the young master finished speaking, he added: "Don't let anyone talk about this matter. I don't know why my father and his senior brothers also swore a vow not to mention Zhou Li as Zi Wuyu's apprentice. I don't know why. My father mistakenly said it once when he was drunk. My expression at that time... tsk tsk! It's no better than you are now, Uncle Shi!"
The eagle-nosed and leopard-eyed Taoist stayed there for a long time like a wooden chicken. After a while, he picked up the dust and said to himself: "Tianjisou is one of the few recognized leaders in the martial arts world today. His four magic weapons are unparalleled weapons. How could he be the junior disciple who thinks twice? I don’t believe that Feng Wuhen is such a cunning and cunning person, how could he accept Zi Wuyu’s abandoned disciple.”
The young man waved his hand: "This is absolutely true. Let's not care about the reason. My father said that he will come soon. When the old man comes, he will make the decision."
The man apologized slightly: "Yes, sir!"
And this kind of dialogue is taking place all over the Jialan Temple. The arrival of Tianjisou Zhouli will undoubtedly make the Jialan Temple even more thunderous when the storm is about to come!
