After Ouyang Feng heard this, his heart moved. I’ve been reading the book for so long that I don’t remember some of the plot very clearly. But the incident mentioned by Master Ku Hui seems to be recorded in the book, but he really can't remember when in "Shooting the Condor", there was something about Shaolin, but he didn't respond slowly, saying: "Master is too polite. , I am not qualified to comment on Shaolin monks, it is a great honor to be able to accompany him to the last seat."
Master Ku Hui heard his humble words and thought highly of him. I just feel that he is young, but he doesn't have any arrogance of young people. In this era, communications were not well developed. Most of the young warriors worked behind closed doors. There were many arrogant Yelangs. Those who could be so polite must have a strict family tradition. I couldn't help but have a higher evaluation of Ouyang Chi.
Zen Master Ku Hui arranged Ouyang Feng's residence and went back to report to the abbot.
The abbot, Zen Master Kucheng, also knew that a stranger had come to the temple, so he sent Zen Master Kuhui, the head of Luohan Hall, to receive him.
Zen Master Ku Hui came back and reported that he was the young owner of White Camel Villa and that he had a high personal opinion of Ouyang Feng. Of course, he is not talking about martial arts. He is expected to be in his twenties, and White Camel Villa has always been "a single lineage". He is not the future owner of the village, so how can his martial arts be so high? But he was highly praised for his words and deeds.
Before going to the Grand School, Ouyang Feng followed the courtesy and met with the abbot Kuchen and Zen Master Ku Zhi, the head of the Bodhidharma Hall. Only then did he learn that Zen Master Ku Hui was the head of the Luohan Hall and was the leader of a department responsible for dealing with external challenges.
He secretly laughed in his heart: "Shaolin really thinks highly of himself, and he actually sent the head of the Arhat Hall to receive him, borrowing the light of the divine sculpture."
This year's college competition is quite grand because there are outsiders watching the competition.
Shaolin Temple often invites outsiders. This time Ouyang Feng was invited to participate. In fact, he also wanted to show him the martial arts of the younger generation of Shaolin Temple.
Shaolin's martial arts is the best in the world. You can't say it all by yourself. You still have to rely on others to spread the word in order to improve your reputation. White Camel Villa is a suitable mouthpiece.
The outsiders present were not only Ouyang Feng, but most of them were small sects and boxers from nearby Shaolin Temple. They usually followed the Shaolin Temple's lead.
Zen Master Ku Hui also introduced Ouyang Feng one by one.
Everyone here is a nobody, being polite and polite on the surface, and saying some hypocritical pretentious remarks.
White Camel Villa is far away in the Western Region, and few people here have heard of it. And with a big eagle beside him, he has been practicing martial arts hard in the mountains and on the seaside in the past few years. He looks weather-beaten and makes people feel that the wildness of the frontier is still there. Others thought that Ouyang Feng admired Shaolin martial arts and came to see him.
Ouyang Feng had nothing to explain, but he was seated next to Zen Master Ku Hui. It's fine if others don't know, but Shaolin knows the importance of White Camel Mountain. Among the many guests, Ouyang Feng is of course the most important one, so he sits closest to the center.
The school ground at the back of the Shaolin Temple occupies a very large area, and all the monks from the temple are here. Even if they don't have to leave, it's not in vain to listen to the comments of the eminent monks.
The young disciples came off the stage one by one, displayed their own kung fu, and competed with each other. Although they were all vying for victory, they stopped at the last minute, showing their magnanimity.
Shaolin is worthy of being the leader of the martial arts world. It has a profound foundation. The young disciples have strict rules and solid skills. Although it seems that the martial arts is not very high now, as long as they practice persistently, they will have a promising future. Many masters can emerge from every generation, which is why they endure for so long. Like White Camel Villa, there is only one disciple in a generation, and if something goes wrong, the inheritance will be cut off.
Ouyang Feng has great martial arts skills and extensive knowledge, but his research on Shaolin Kung Fu is somewhat insufficient.
Kuzhi, the first Zen master of Bodhidharma Hall, has studied martial arts in Shaolin for many years and has profound attainments. His comments are just right, and Ouyang Feng feels he has benefited a lot from listening to them.
All the disciples who needed to compete had competed and received guidance from the master. Guests like Ouyang Feng also expressed their sincere admiration. Shaolin also gained great satisfaction.
Just when everyone was satisfied, a haired tutu came out of the crowd and shouted loudly: "Kuzhi's words are nonsense. He has no idea what martial arts is. He unexpectedly occupies the position of chief of Bodhidharma Hall. It is really shameful."
But he is a fire worker who lights the fire under the stove in Xiangji Kitchen.
Everyone was shocked, Ouyang Feng suddenly remembered this matter. It turns out that this incident was not recorded in "Shooting the Condor", but in "Yitian", and it actually appeared at this point in time.
The disciples of Zen Master Kuzhi didn't wait for the master to speak, and they shouted in unison, cursing: "You are a fire-headed monk who cooks on the fire, how dare you talk nonsense here."
If you ridicule Zen Master Kuzhi in front of outsiders, even if he is finally cured of his crime, that person will be humiliated, and the disciples of Zen Master Kuzhi will also be humiliated.
The Huogong Tutuo shouted: "Master is ignorant of bullshit, and the disciples are even more ignorant of bullshit."
As he said that, he rushed to the middle of the field and stood up, as if he was ready to take on the challenge and not reject anyone who came.
How could Zen Master Kuzhi's disciples endure such humiliation? One by one, they stepped forward to fight with him, but were defeated by him with three punches and two kicks.
It turns out that everyone in the Bodhidharma Hall has been tricked and competed with others in the same discipline, so everyone shows mercy. But Huo Gong Tutuo was extremely ruthless in his attacks. He defeated nine major disciples of Bodhidharma Hall in a row, all of them suffered broken muscles, fractures and serious injuries.
The first Zen Master Kuzhi was shocked and angry, and asked in a deep voice: "You use all the authentic martial arts of our sect. Who taught you?"
Huo Gong Tutuo said: "No one taught me martial arts. I just watched others practice martial arts and learned it myself."
Zen Master Kuzhi said: "Since you are not from another sect, why are you so heavy-handed in a competition with the same sect?"
Huo Gong Tutuo sneered: "Do I have heavy hands? The steward who supervises Xiangji Kitchen always punches and kicks me. He vomited blood three times in three years. Why don't anyone say that he has heavy hands?"
Zen Master Kuzhi is a high-ranking official in Shaolin. How could he know what happened in the kitchen or who was in charge of Xiangji Kitchen?
Someone nearby told Zen Master Kuzhi that the manager of the kitchen had a bad temper and liked to hit people. He also had martial arts skills, so his attacks were naturally very severe, and the ones who were beaten were all low-level tutuos who served others. They neither knew martial arts nor had any status, so naturally no one cared about them. But I didn't expect such a character who dared to rebel.
Zen Master Kuzhi said: "Even if he is rude and cruel to you, what does it have to do with others?"
Huo Gong Tutuo said with a cruel smile: "I have practiced martial arts secretly for more than 20 years, and I still let others beat me, laugh at me, and scold me. I am waiting for today. Why do you want me to be merciful?"
All Shaolin Temple disciples are good at martial arts, and there are many opportunities to secretly learn boxing moves. This Huo Gong Tutuo was both hard-working and extremely intelligent. In more than 20 years, he actually developed extremely superior martial arts. But he kept it secret and kept silently lighting the fire under the stove. Even when the chef monk punched him, he never fought back. It was just that his internal energy had been refined and he would never be injured again.
This Huo Gong Tutuo had a sinister nature, and he did not show off his skills on the Mid-Autumn Festival until he thought that his martial arts skills were better than those of the monks in the temple. Decades of smoldering made him hate all the monks in the temple, and he turned out to be merciless when he attacked them.
Zen Master Kuzhi understood the whole story, sneered three times and said, "Your painstaking efforts are really respectable!"
Immediately he stood up from his seat and said: "Since you are so confident, let me come and fight with you."
Zen Master Kuzhi is a master of Shaolin Temple. He has been immersed in Shaolin martial arts for many years. He knows every move of Huo Gong Tu Tuo. However, he is old and Huo Gong Tu Tuo is in his prime. Secondly, Zen Master Ku Zhi cherishes Huo Gong Tu Tuo. His intelligence, sympathy for his plight, and kindness to his subordinates. But Huo Gong Tutuo is looking for killers, so he fights to five hundred flowers away, and he is sure to win through hard wisdom.
When the two of them used the "Big Thread Tangle" move, their four arms were twisted together, but Ku Zhi's hands were already pressing on the critical points on the opponent's chest. With the release of his internal strength, Huo Gong Tou Tuo was killed immediately, and there was no room for dismantling him.
Zen Master Kuzhi couldn't bear to hurt him, he spread his palms and shouted: "Get away!"
Huo Gong Tutuo did not stop, but flew forward and struck with both fists.
The power of these fists surged forward like an overwhelming force. Zen Master Kuzhi was startled and hurriedly returned his palms to counter each other, but the power was no longer enough. But after hearing several clicks, the arm bone of his left arm and the four ribs on his chest were immediately broken.
Everyone was shocked. Zen Master Kuzhi lost, which no one expected, let alone that he could be seriously injured. Everyone gathered around. I saw that Ku Zhi's energy was like a thread and he couldn't say a word. It turned out that his internal organs had been severely injured by the shock.
Only Ouyang Feng noticed Huo Gong Tutuo taking advantage of the chaos to escape, but he did not stop him.
By the time the Shaolin Temple monks remembered Huo Gong Toutuo, he had already disappeared.
Ouyang Feng and a group of foreign guests were embarrassed after witnessing this great change in Shaolin, and they all bid farewell to Shaolin.
Zen Master Kucheng, the abbot of Shaolin, and Zen Master Kuhui, the head of Luohan Hall, were not in the mood to deal with them, so they did not retain them.
Ouyang Feng took the big eagle and left the Shaolin Temple with other guests. But Ouyang Feng didn't go far, he also became interested in this Huo Gong Tutuo.
Although this Huo Gong Tutuo does not appear formally in the book and only exists in records, it is extremely important. It is precisely because of him that Shaolin has the precept that no one is allowed to practice martial arts without a master teaching him martial arts. It also directly caused Zhang Junbao to betray Shaolin and found Wudang, adding a sect in the world that could compete with Shaolin.
His martial arts is not low, but it is by no means high. There are many people in the martial arts who can defeat him, but because of him, Shaolin has suffered a great decline. As for his descendants and his entanglements with Shaolin and Wudang disciples, they have added countless disputes to the martial arts world.
Ouyang Feng left the big eagle in the woods and sneaked back to Shaolin alone. He knew that Huo Gong Tutuo would come back again to seek revenge against the monks who had a grudge against him.
Although Shaolin Temple is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, everything in the temple is in chaos tonight. Ouyang Feng's outstanding qinggong, his appearance is like a ghost, hiding from everyone's eyes and ears.
Zen Master Ku Zhi was too seriously injured and could not survive the night and died.
