"The bells of Zizhu Zen in the ancient temple are ringing, and demons are subdued in the rivers and lakes;
The Buddha's voice also has heroic sentiments, and the world's martial arts originated from Shaolin. "
…
The world's martial arts comes from Shaolin!
This is the most widely circulated sentence in all major dynasties in China.
Although his words are exaggerated, there is some truth to them.
Because Chinese martial arts only began to rise after overseas monks crossed to the Central Plains thousands of years ago and established the Shaolin Temple.
Otherwise, although there were some martial arts masters a thousand years ago, China's martial arts was far from as prosperous as it is now.
This shows how high the status of Shaolin Temple is in China.
This is also true for the Qing Dynasty.
The Shaolin Temple in the Qing Dynasty also experienced many disasters. For example, when the Manchu Tatars entered the customs a hundred years ago, the Shaolin monks also went out to participate in the war and joined various martial arts sects to prevent the Tatars from entering the customs.
But in the end, the Shaolin monks also suffered heavy casualties under the Tatar cavalry.
Since then, the Shaolin Temple has begun to decline, and it has never regained its previous status as the leader of the martial arts sect.
But as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Although the Shaolin Temple has kept a low profile over the years, it still maintains its status as a top power and has never collapsed.
…
"Master, the Shaolin Temple is unfathomable, and there may even be monks who are stronger than Lei Dapeng. Our trip is too risky, so we should go back!"
In a bamboo forest outside the Shaolin Temple, Xue Qianxun, who was wearing tight-fitting night clothes that accentuated her figure, supported Dongfang Bubai beside him and whispered.
In addition, there are hundreds of experts from the Sun and Moon God Sect densely packed behind them.
They came here to steal the Great Return Pill from Shaolin Temple.
"We're all here, how do we go back?"
Dongfang Bubai said coldly.
Even though she was injured at the moment, with a pale color on her beautiful cheeks, her brows still exuded an arrogant and domineering look.
Moreover, even though she knew that this trip was dangerous and it was not advisable to alert others, she still wore that bright red dress, which was quite conspicuous in the night.
Xue Qianxun advised: "The only holy medicine for healing in the world is the Shaolin Temple's Great Return Pill. We don't have to rely on the Great Return Pill. Moreover, the old man Thunder Whip is extremely powerful. Even if you recover from your injuries, I'm afraid it won't be him." opponent."
"We might as well go to Yuhuatian. Leader, you were injured by Old Man Thunder Whip's energy. With Yuhuatian's strength, you will definitely be able to heal the injury for Leader."
"Furthermore, the leader of the church, you were injured because you were doing something for him. He will definitely not leave you alone..."
"Shut up!" Dongfang Bubai interrupted indifferently: "I don't need his rescue!"
"Leader..." Xue Qianxun wanted to persuade him again.
Dongfang Bubai glanced at her coldly: "If you talk more, I will destroy you first!"
"Alas..." Xue Qianxun could only sigh, but did not dare to say any more.
She understands Dongfang Bubai's character, and even more so how arrogant she is.
No one can change what she decides!
But the leader didn't want to go to Yuhuatian, he just didn't want to bow his head in front of him.
Although that person has not been seen for a long time, he still occupies a special place in the leader's heart...
Thinking of this, Xue Qianxun sighed again in her heart, full of sorrow.
She really couldn't figure out what good things those stinky men had that made them worthy of the leader's efforts?
What's more, that person is not even a man...
Dongfang Bubai didn't care about Xue Qianxun's mood. She stared at the majestic Shaolin Temple hall in the distance and said in a deep voice: "Have you found out the location of the Great Return Pill?"
Da Huan Dan is the exclusive secret medicine of the Shaolin Temple. It can not only bring the dead back to life, but also has the effect of curing all internal and external injuries and increasing the power. Therefore, the Shaolin Temple strictly controls this medicine. Even the abbots of the past dynasties can only consume one pill in their lifetime. Except for the abbot of Shaolin, no one knows where this medicine is stored.
But since Dongfang Bubai was prepared to take advantage of the Shaolin Great Return Pill from the beginning, he naturally sent someone to check out the location of the medicine.
Xue Qianxun nodded and said: "We have found out that the Great Returning Pill should be in the Bodhidharma Courtyard to the west of the Shaolin Temple and is guarded by three Bodhidharma dean elders. In addition to the Great Returning Pill, it is said that it is one of the four great magical powers of the Shaolin Temple. The Yi Jin Jing is also stored there!"
Dongfang Bubai's face was stern. She was not very interested in the Yi Jin Jing and ordered: "You will hold the Shaolin monks down later, and I will go get the Great Return Pill. After you get it, don't be reluctant to fight and lead the people to retreat immediately!"
"yes!"
Xue Qianxun cupped her hands.
The atmosphere fell silent again.
Time passed by minute by minute.
As the moon reached its zenith, fire suddenly burst into flames in the Shaolin Temple.
Not long after, the originally silent Shaolin Temple suddenly became lively.
"It's gone!"
"Inform the abbot quickly!"
"There's a fire, put out the fire quickly!"
…
Thick smoke billowed out from the Shaolin Temple, and streaks of fire shot into the sky. Many monks who were immersed in their sleep were awakened and began to move around to get water to put out the fire.
Xue Qianxun's eyes narrowed and she said: "Leader, our people have begun to take action!"
"Do it!"
Dongfang Bubai did not delay, and with a flash of his body, he immediately led people out of the bamboo forest and rushed towards the gate of Shaolin Temple.
"Who are you?!"
"No, there are enemies breaking into the mountain gate at night!"
"Stop them!"
"kill!"
In an instant, hundreds of masters from the Sun Moon Sect broke into the Shaolin Temple and started fighting with the Shaolin monks.
Under the almost suicidal and crazy attack of the Sun Moon God Sect, the Shaolin monks retreated steadily, and dozens of disciples were soon killed or injured.
But at this moment, a group of monks with extraordinary momentum arrived. The old monk headed by him killed two masters of the Sun and Moon Sect with one palm. He stared angrily, like a Buddhist glaring Vajra, and shouted in a deep voice:
"Where did the evildoer come from, how dare he break into my Buddhist holy land!"
This old monk is none other than Master Tianhong, the abbot of Shaolin Temple.
In addition to Master Tianhong, there were also two old monks following him.
One of them is Zen Master Tianjing, the head of the Bodhidharma Academy who previously led people to the Golden Palace for reinforcements; the other is also an unparalleled master in Shaolin, Master Tianfeng.
The three of them are revered as the three great divine monks of the "Tian" generation in Shaolin Temple, and are quite famous in the world.
In addition, there were also Wuhua, a disciple of Master Tianfeng, known as the "Seven Wonderful Monks", and two people wearing secular clothes.
On the left is a young man with a beautiful face and white clothes. This young man has an extraordinary appearance, but his face is slightly pale. He is obviously injured.
This man's name is Yunzheng, and he is the son of Yun Yi, the leader of the Northwest Iron-Blooded Banner Sect.
Next to him was a dark-faced man in black. This man had a black-sheathed sword slung across his back. His black and white eyes shone brightly in the night. He had an extraordinary bearing, even better than Yun Zheng's.
This person's name is Tie Zhongtang, he is also a disciple of the Iron Blood Banner Sect, and is Yunzheng's senior brother.
Because Yunzheng was injured a few months ago, Tie Zhongtang brought Yunzheng to the Shaolin Temple to seek medical treatment. He never imagined that he would encounter such a change.
At this time, looking at the group of Sun Moon God Sect masters who were all wearing night clothes and had extremely high martial arts skills, Tie Zhongtang frowned and said in a deep voice:
"These people should come from the same martial arts school, but Tie has never seen them in the martial arts world. I'm afraid these people are not from the martial arts community of the Qing Dynasty."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they immediately understood what Tie Zhongtang meant.
Not from the martial arts world of the Qing Dynasty?
Where else could that come from?
These days, there happens to be a group of people from the Ming Dynasty who are causing trouble in the Qing Dynasty...
Zen Master Tianjing stared at the disciples of the Sun and Moon God Sect carefully for a moment, and suddenly said: "Donor Tie is right, these people should be members of the Sun and Moon God Sect!"
"Sun Moon God Sect?"
Master Tianhong frowned and said: "Is it the demonic force that was in the Golden Palace before to reinforce the Sword Sect?"
"Exactly!" Zen Master Tianjing said in a deep voice.
Master Tianfeng frowned: "But haven't there been rumors recently that Dongfang Bubai, the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect, was injured by the 'Thunder Saint' Thunder Whip Old Man of the Four Saints of 'Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning', and his serious injuries were hidden? Why? Come to my Shaolin to kill?"
Zen Master Tianjing was also a little puzzled: "Yes, it's time. If she doesn't go to heal her injuries, why did she come to Shaolin?"
"Huh? Healing?!"
Speaking of this, the expressions of several people present changed.
"No! She wants to take advantage of my Shaolin Great Return Pill!"
Zen Master Tianjing quickly turned around and looked to the west in the direction of Bodhidharma Monastery.
Just at this moment, a fierce battle suddenly came from the west, followed closely by a panicked voice:
"Oh no, a thief broke into Bodhidharma Academy!"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly ran towards Bodhidharma Academy.
When they arrived at the Damo Monastery, they saw that most of the Damo Monastery had collapsed, and the ground was full of blood-stained and screaming monks.
The three old monks who were in the Grand Master realm and were responsible for guarding the Great Return Pill, one died and the other was injured and fell to the ground.
On the roof of Bodhidharma Monastery, another old monk was fighting with a figure in red clothes. The battle was extremely fierce.
Seeing Zen Master Tianjing and others arriving, the injured old monk quickly shouted: "Brothers, this man has stolen the Yi Jin Jing and the Great Return Pill, stop him quickly!"
"How brave!"
Master Tianhong and others were immediately furious and immediately took action, stepping forward to help the old monk capture Dongfang Bubai.
But at this time, Dongfang Bubai also noticed the arrival of Master Tianhong and others. Knowing that he could not fight, he repeled the old monk with one palm, and then flashed towards the outside of the Shaolin Temple like a ghost.
Although he was injured, Dongfang Bubai was still very fast. Master Tianhong and others were too late to stop him, so they could only watch Dongfang Bubai escape with eyes wide open.
laugh!
However, at this moment, a sharp sword light rushed over. Before Dongfang Bubai could react, he was cut down by the sword light, and a few drops of blood splashed in the void.
Master Tianhong and others looked at it and were overjoyed.
"Uncle, don't give up!"
"Uncle, see the reluctance to give up!"
Master Tianhong and others saluted one after another.
I saw the person who came was wearing a monk's robe. He was only about forty years old, but he was holding a long sword and had a fierce sword intent flowing from his body. His aura was extremely terrifying!
This man is called the Sword Monk Bu She. He found a new way to practice swordsmanship in the Shaolin Temple, which mainly uses fists, feet and sticks. His strength is extremely terrifying, not weaker than Master Tianhong and others.
The reluctant swordsman ignored Master Tianhong and others. He only saw his cold eyes, staring at Dongfang Bubai who was chopped to the ground, and said coldly:
"You are so bold and evil, how dare you come to my Shaolin Temple and act like a nobody, and treat me like no one in Shaolin?"
Tap tap tap——
Taking this opportunity, Master Tianhong and others also chased after him, surrounding the weak Dongfang Bubai.
A stream of powerful Qi locked it.
Under the pressure of so much momentum, Dongfang Bubai's already pale face suddenly turned a bit paler. A ferocious sword wound in front of him was bleeding, and his breath was extremely weak.
But even in the face of so many masters, she still had a look of indifference on her face that refused to admit defeat. Her eyes were like lightning, full of murderous intent, staring at the sword monk who refused to give up.
At the same time, the true energy in her body was flowing rapidly, and she was obviously ready to fight hard!
