Chapter 105: Not practicing good deeds in life
Xu Qingan slept all night to replenish his energy. After having a meal early in the morning, I rode the Huoyun Horse out of the city and headed to Jinguang Temple.
He had been to this official road many times. When he walked to the foot of the mountain, he suddenly heard the extremely rapid ringing of the bells in the temple, which could be clearly heard both inside and outside the mountain gate.
Xu Qingyun took a look and saw more than a dozen fresh horse hoof prints on the mountain road, and there were people carrying loads up the mountain one after another.
He returned to his shell in spirit, thinking to himself: "Many uninvited guests came to Jinguang Temple today."
He had always known that the old monk had great supernatural powers, so when he bumped into him today, it was a good time to secretly take a look at the old monk's methods. When he really needs help, he takes action.
Xu Qing then went to the foot of the mountain, found a tea stall, and wrote a handwritten letter asking Huo Yunma to go to Sergeant Zhang's camp and bring a team of people over.
And he went straight up the mountain.
He has been to Jinguang Temple many times and is extremely familiar with it.
Xu Qing did not go through the main entrance, but climbed in through the yellow wall of the temple. Avoiding the eyes of others, he quietly climbed onto the roof of the Main Hall.
He has the breath-containing jade talisman left by Elder Bai of the Lotus Sect. After wearing it, he cooperates with Lin Tianwang to teach him the method of condensing qi and blood. Even the manifested soul master cannot detect his presence.
Xu Qing found a good observation angle and focused on the main hall.
With his current strength, even if his soul has not emerged from his shell, he can clearly see what is going on in the hall with just his ears and eyes.
Now in Jinguang Temple, more than two hundred monks from the temple are outside the temple. There are also more than ten monks in the temple holding swords and iron rods, waiting in strict formation.
In the main hall, the host and the guest are clearly distinguished.
The uninvited guests were four middle-aged monks. All of them had bulging temples, full of energy and blood, and strong muscles and bones. In addition, there are two warrior monks beside each other, both of whom are warriors with good health.
Then there are about a dozen heroes, all dressed in different clothes, with evil spirits on their brows, and most of them have a lot of human lives on their hands.
After everyone arrived, the four foreign monks, Master Yankong and his disciples met and bowed to the Buddha statue in the hall, and then the guests and hosts took their seats.
After Xu Qing heard this, he found out the origin of the other monk, who turned out to be four deacons from the Great Zen Temple.
Most of these heroes are lay disciples of the Great Zen Temple, and the rest also have close friendship with the Great Zen Temple.
The four deacons are all monks of the Hui generation in Dazen Temple and belong to the current Mesozoic era of Dazen Temple.
"Four senior brothers, all are true disciples of the great sect. I wonder why you come to this small temple?" Fayue replaced Yankong to receive the monks.
In terms of seniority, counting from Hongyue, Yankong is actually one generation higher than the current abbot Xiongchan of the Great Zen Temple.
However, Jinguang Temple is a small sect, and seniority is not calculated together with that of Dazen Temple.
What's more, Hongyue had a conflict with Dazen Temple back then, and the two families were not very close.
The leading deacon monk said: "I came here this time for nothing else. I came here on the order of the abbot to get the relics of Zen Master Hongyue."
Fayue couldn't help but said angrily: "Master Hongyue From this temple First Patriarch, how can I give his relics to your temple?"
The monk said: "All the martial arts in Jinguang Temple came from the Great Zen Temple. This time I only ask for the relics from you. , already the abbot is particularly open Well. If not, it’s natural to accept your martial arts skills.”
Fa Yue: “It depends on whether you have this ability.”
The monk looked at it. After seeing Fa Yue, he stopped talking to Fa Yue. His eyes fell on Yankong and said: "Abbot Yankong, the message has been brought to you. Please give me your reply. If you are willing to return the relic, the inheritance of martial arts will be a matter of , and will no longer pursue it.”
Yankong said calmly: "It has been a hundred years since Jinguang Temple inherited the Patriarch Hongyue. Why did your temple come to your door now?"
The monk: "That was what the previous abbot told me, and that's why my temple didn't come. Looking for you. Now the temple only needs the relics, so please consider it carefully, Abbot Yankong."
Yankong nodded: "Xu. Abbot Kong has a broad mind. When I was young, I corresponded with him a lot and was influenced by his Buddhist teachings. "
The monk said: "If Abbot Yankong thinks well of the old abbot, I will do this. Merit, achieve good results."
Yankong glanced at the monk and said: "It's a pity, it's a pity..."
The monk asked: "What's the pity?"
"The Sa family has never practiced good deeds in their lives."
I saw only golden Buddha light emerging from Yankong's body. On the top of his head, among the golden Buddha light, An extremely powerful Bodhisattva appeared, with one foot on a golden dragon and the other on a white elephant. He had no magic weapon in his body and only made a fist seal.
As soon as this Bodhisattva appeared, both the monks from the Great Zen Temple and the heroes in the palace felt that their energy and blood were suppressed in an instant.
"Appear!"
"The Temple of the Mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva!"
The expressions of the monks in the Great Zen Temple changed with horror.
Although they are good at martial arts, they are not at the level of practicing visceral skills, while the old monk is in the real state of manifesting the soul.
It is true that the Qi and blood of martial arts can restrain the soul, but the person's realm is too high, so it is not something that the Qi and blood of ordinary warriors can restrain.
What’s more, the view of the mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva is the most powerful and courageous method in Buddhism. The fear of the masculine energy and blood is much less than that of the normal soul.
What happened next was beyond the expectations of everyone in the palace.
I saw Yankong pinching a dharma seal, and the energy and blood in his body actually merged with the mighty Tianlong Bodhisattva above his head.
The old monk pressed his hand on the ground, and the mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva punched out.
The spirit of the old monk contained the fierce energy and blood in his soul, forming a terrifying force that blasted towards the four deacons of the Great Zen Temple.
I saw only four people, who burst out with energy and blood to resist, but they couldn't take any moves. Their bones rattled and they fell to the ground.
The old monk simply took away the Buddha's light from his body, stood up and put his hands behind his back and said: "Although Jinguang Temple is small, it can still afford the relics of our ancestors. Please go back and tell Abbot Xiongchan that if he wants the relics, just do it yourself."
The whole palace was shocked when he displayed his magical power.
The four deacons knew that they would not be able to make any achievements today. While they secretly cried out for bad luck, they also had serious doubts about the intelligence channels of the temple.
They were shocked by Yankong's magical power, and they had no choice but to obey, without their previous unruly appearance.
While Xu Qing watched and sighed, he also discovered that the old monk's move consumed a lot of energy, and his hands on his back were still shaking.
It’s just...
Is this the appearance?
Not to mention the power, it is indeed very...
Xu Qing is really envious now.
No wonder those famous real people and holy monks are so good at pretending to be gods and ghosts.
The manifestation of this supernatural power is indeed like the existence of gods and Buddhas in the world.
The appearance is still like this, I wonder if a more powerful "possession", or even the legendary "ghost fairy", can create a scene where the sky and the earth are magical.
The four deacons were surrendered by the old monk with one move. They were about to leave in disgrace.
At this time, the officers and soldiers called by Xu Qing also came up the mountain.
Now everyone in Jiangning Prefecture knows that Jinguang Temple is the place where Mr. Xu is sheltered. Dazen Temple has gone too far by not greeting him.
Xu Qing naturally couldn't let them go easily.
Xu Qing got off the roof, came to Sergeant Zhang and the others, and led them into the palace.
The people in the palace immediately became nervous.
Although I kept scolding the court eagle dog on weekdays, I still felt scared when I encountered it in broad daylight.
"Zhang Duizheng, these four monks came to Jinguang Temple to cause trouble. They were arrested and brought to the Yamen for trial."
The leading deacon said: "We are monks of the Great Zen Temple, and we have a formal ultimatum."
Xu Qing: "Then we have to take you back. The Great Zen Temple is thousands of miles away, and you What are you doing here? Do you want to rebel?"
Now that Taoist priest Foxiao is gone, how can this deacon dare to get involved with the rebellion in front of the officers and soldiers?
He said: "We are here just for matters in the temple, how can we rebel."
Xu Qing: "We will talk about it after entering the Yamen anyway."
"By the way, you are not from the Yamen, so you have no right to arrest us."
Xu Qing smiled secretly in his heart, "It is true that we are not from the Yamen, but the Yamen are all my people."
He asked Zhang Duizheng and the others to take action directly and capture the four deacons.
These four deacons did not dare to attack the officers and soldiers in front of everyone, otherwise they would really be rebelling.
Furthermore, Fayue also brought the monks around without hesitation.
Xu Qing looked around at the other heroes and said, "Please leave your names. If he really rebels, I will have to ask you to come to the Yamen together."
"No, no! "
These heroes from all walks of life have come to help. Even if there are lay disciples from the Great Zen Temple among them, they dare not come out to talk back at this time.
Whether Xu Qing is from the Yamen or not, these officers and soldiers cannot be fake.
There are two different things between killing people and setting fires in private and openly resisting the court.
Seeing the bad opportunity, these heroes in the world all shied away and ran away. Seeing that Xu Qing didn't stop him, he walked faster.
Some lay disciples had a conscience attack, and they also said that they should find someone through their connections and ask what was going on. As for going directly to the Yamen to ask for someone, that's not something I dare to do.
The four deacons were surrounded by the officers and soldiers, and Fa Yue and the monks were blocking them, so they did not dare to take action.
The main thing is that the old monk is still watching.
This old guy's soul has manifested, his Qi and blood are at the level of Zang training, and he has also practiced the Great Powerful Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva. They really can't afford to offend him.
The leading deacon had no choice but to signal his companions not to act rashly, and wait until they got down the mountain before finding a way to escape.
"Donors, don't do anything. We will go to the Yamen with you to clarify our purpose." The leading deacon took out a golden bead and handed it to Zhang Duizheng.
Captain Zhang glanced at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing nodded.
He accepted it and said, "Be honest."
Xu Qing walked up to the leading deacon, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are all highly skilled in martial arts, we have to remove your joints first."
Before he finished speaking, he struck like lightning.
“Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist!” The leader of the deacons was surprised.
But Xu Qing removed the joint in the blink of an eye.
It turns out that this is also the power of the Heaven-Building Tribulation Hand.
When Xu Qing patted his shoulder, he used the absolute touch of the Heaven-Building Tribulation Hand to detect the direction of his energy and blood, and blocked the monk's energy and blood circulation with one move, and then used the Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist. The method of dividing his muscles and bones should make him unable to resist anymore.
The other three monks saw that the leader monk had been taken down, and each wanted to take action. At this time, Yankong took action and hit the three monks with his powerful Vajra Palm, causing all three monks to lose their fighting ability instantly.
The monks who followed them were also surrounded by Fa Yue and the others.
Although their martial arts were not weak, Fayue and the others cooperated tacitly and greeted them directly with iron rods and swords. These monks had no time to show their weapons and were knocked down directly.
Originally, Yankong was just posing to scare away the group of monks from the Great Zen Temple. Unexpectedly, Xu Qing also came and attacked the monks from the Great Zen Temple.
He took advantage of the east wind and captured these monks directly.
Anyway, if something goes wrong, Xu Qing will take care of it.
This is the advantage of having relations between North Korea and China.
It doesn't matter, he can't afford to offend Dazenji in private. Now that Xu Qing, who has a government background, has come forward, the Dazen Temple has to be wary.
After all, no matter how powerful the Dazen Temple was, they would not dare to attack Jiangning Mansion.
Xu Qing himself is not afraid of the Great Zen Temple. After all, the emperor does not like Buddhism now. He is right to attack the Great Zen Temple.
This is also the reason why the leading deacon just now did not dare to act rashly.
If we really take action, Dazen Temple will still be implicated, and we won’t be able to protect them.
The current encounter has strengthened their support for their abbot Xiongchan.
The Confucian sages are right when they say that if a ruler treats his ministers like dirt, then his ministers will regard him as a bandit.
The Yu Dynasty has been suppressing the Dazen Temple intentionally or unintentionally, and now it is even worse. They really can't bear it anymore.
Xu Qing asked Fayue and Sergeant Zhang to imprison these monks until the county government sent someone over.
Speaking of which, Wang Huwei and the others are also lay disciples of the Great Zen Temple. Let’s see what their attitude is about this matter.
They thought the Great Zen Temple was good, Xu Qing could understand, but Xu Qing still had to see where they should stand.
People, after all, have to put their own interests first.
…
…
Apse.
Xu Qing drank the tea served to the guests and said: "The master's Dharma is exquisite and has the power of a diamond. I admire you."
He never expected that the old monk would be so brave and take action as soon as he was told.
Yankong smiled casually: "I can't hand over the relics, and they can't give up, so we have to do it."
"Is this seeing the clear nature of the mind? ?”
“It doesn’t matter, it’s just that the matter is complicated, so it’s better to cut off the root cause directly.”
Yankong naturally knew that there must be a reason for Xiong Chan to ask for the relic. But so what?
It was impossible for him to abandon the relics for the sake of the other party.
If you have a clear stance, you naturally have nothing to say.
Xu Qing: "This mighty Tianlong Bodhisattva Temple, I don't know..."
Yankong smiled slightly: "Sir, you have already started to learn the Golden Light Curse, and you will be able to practice the thunder method in the future, so why covet it? The mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva looks at this "The magical path."
Xu Qing smiled: "I'm just curious. I think the master's Qi and blood have reached the level of Zang training, but it is very different from the previous Lin Tianwang of Black Wind Village. Please clarify. .”
Yankong: "Young master, what you want to say is that my energy and blood are not as cool as those of Benefactor Lin."
"Is this the reason why there is no unity of spirit and body?"
Yankong nodded: " That’s right. The old monk does not have the unity of spirit and body, unless otherwise. If there is a chance, otherwise martial arts will basically come to an end when it comes to practicing the viscera. Without the integration of spirit and body, the biggest difference is that there is no way to combine body and mind, and it is difficult to get a glimpse of the superior realm of martial arts."
"The form and the meaning are consistent?"
< br>"To be precise, it is the inner three unions. The heart and the mind are combined, the mind and the energy are combined, and the energy and the strength are combined. The master's muscles, bones and skin have been trained to the point, and the bright and dark energies are at your fingertips. But in order to train the viscera, you must understand the combination of the mind and the mind. Only by understanding the wonderful principles can we understand the essence of Zang training. The golden light spell only improves the young master's martial arts foundation, but cannot help him gain a glimpse of the superior realm of martial arts. Now the old monk can only practice the art of viscera, which can produce the sound of dragon and elephant and nourish the internal organs, but it can only go so far. ”
"Master, please give me some advice." Xu Qing looked serious and bowed his hands.
Yankong smiled: "Young Master may have guessed it. The old monk reached this state by relying on external objects. If he didn't realize it himself, he really can't teach you."
Xu Qing was startled when he heard this. Then he nodded: "The way of heaven is not created by others, and the master's words are quite reasonable."
Yankong heard Xu Qing's words After saying this, he couldn't help but look shocked, and after a long time he said: "The way of heaven is not faked by others, it is true. It's a pity that the old monk's qualifications are ordinary, and he can only give false evidence."
Xu Qingjian struck the old monk, Somewhat embarrassed, he said comfortingly: "Buddhism says that the four elements are all empty, and Taoism says that you can cultivate the truth through falsehood. Master, there is no need to be depressed."
Yankong couldn't help but smile, "Young Master has a lot of wisdom, but it's a pity that he is not a person in my way."
Xu Qing: "I saw it from the pickings of previous sages, and I didn't understand it myself."
"See the heaven and the earth, see all living beings, and then see the Tathagata. Young master is now at the stage of seeing the heaven and earth all living beings. These accumulations will be used sooner or later." Yankong said quietly.
Xu Qing saw that it was too vague to talk about mystical principles, so he said: "I want to win Qingyun Temple, and I would like to ask the master for help."
Yankong stroked his beard and said: "Young Master is here for the secret medicine of Qingyun Temple?"
"Of course."
"The old monk is also interested in this."
"Shan." Xu Qing continued, "After I deal with the affairs of these monks in Dazen Temple, let's talk again Set a time."
"That's good, that's good. The old monk will send the young master down the mountain first."
Xu Qing and Yankong each received assurances and were satisfied with what happened today.
What makes Yankong even more happy is that Xu Qing's attitude towards Taoism and Buddhism is no different.
Just see if it is useful to you.
This kind of character deserves to be deeply bound to Jin Guangji.
In fact, there is no difference between Jinguang Temple and Jinguang Temple. Patriarch Hongyue was still a Taoist priest in his previous life.
As long as the Taoist tradition of Jinguang Temple can be spread, he can also worship the Taoist ancestors and the Emperor of Heaven.
What's more, since Buddhism was introduced to China, it has already been transformed, and many private activities of Confucianism and Taoism have been added to it, otherwise it would not be possible to flourish.
Not to mention Buddhism, even Confucianism copied hundreds of schools of thought and continued to evolve to what it is now.
Under the way of heaven, it is the survival of the fittest.
After sending Xu Qing away, Yankong returned to the Zen room. Black smoke came out of his body and a voice appeared, "Old monk, that boy has practiced the golden light spell, but seeing his clear eyes, his thoughts must be firm. It shows that his soul has not been damaged, which is really strange.”
“Xu Gongming is an extraordinary person. I am not surprised at all that he practices the Golden Light Curse and is not harmed by it.”
"You trust him so much, you are just a scholar."
"Han Gao was no more than the head of a pavilion, and Emperor Zhaolie was a mat weaver and shoe seller in the past. Heroes do not care about their origin. He said that the old The monk is very decisive, but he is not like that. Besides, I am already getting older. If I don't seize the opportunity and find someone to help me, I'm afraid I will continue to sink into the sea of misery and find it difficult to get over."
Yankong saw clearly that he was the reincarnation of the previous Taoist masters such as Patriarch Hongyue. It is also necessary for the Huiming Divine Monk from the Great Zen Temple to come and save him.
