Outside the Mahavira Hall on the mountain, the abbot of the Zen Yuan had not slept for almost the whole night. At this moment, he stood in front of the hall and watched the mist outside the mountain top. When he heard the voice of the little novice, panting for breath, he sighed softly.
"Abbot, abbot!"
Although the body bones are not bad, it still takes a little effort to run all the way from the bottom of the mountain. When the little novice stops, he needs to support his knees with both hands to stand firm.
"Then, a lot of people came down from that mountain, all with swords and swords, and they looked like the devil surnamed Shen that several senior brothers had said!"
"Amitabha, what should come will always come..."
There was no surprise on Yuan Mie's face, but instead there was a sense that things had finally come to an end, and he just turned around and gave instructions to the other monks.
"Go and invite the first disciples of the Bodhidharma Academy and the Discipline Academy and the Arhat Hall to go out with Lao Na to welcome guests from afar."
"Yes."
Several disciples have also heard about what is going to happen in the near future. Although there is still a bit of anxiety on their faces, but there is no panic when they bow to answer.
Only when he was leaving, he was stopped by Yuan Mie again.
The disciples were puzzled: "Abbot, do you have any other orders?"
Yuanmie let out a long sigh, looked back at the direction of the Cangjing Pavilion, and finally said, "Send another person to go to the Cangjing Pavilion, and ask Shanzai to come to the mountain gate as well."
I want to invite Senior Brother Shanzai...
Everyone was startled, vaguely feeling that the abbot had been in charge of the affairs of the Chanyuan for many years, and he had never shown such a solemn and obscure expression.
Is something going to happen
No one can be sure.
Tianji Temple is located in Bukong Mountain. Because it is far away from the martial arts, it is regarded as a place outside the world. The monks neither fight for fame and fortune in the rivers and lakes nor participate in the battles of the rivers and lakes. Only a Ge monument is placed outside the mountain gate. "Stop Go".
But these people who came today are obviously not good people.
The news on the rivers and lakes always goes very fast, not to mention that Shen Du brought people all the way to the Tianji Temple, and he never concealed his whereabouts. Whereabouts, understand clearly.
Therefore, upon receiving the news from Yuan Mie, the head of the Bodhidharma Institute, the Disciplinary Institute, and the Luohan Hall all guessed that the "guests" they were going to welcome were the legendary ones who once passed through the Thousand Buddhas Hall and returned to the temple. Shen Du, a demon and Taoist master who escaped from Zenzai.
A group of monks then headed for the mountain gate.
Before stopping the Ge monument, Shen Du had been waiting for a long time.
Gu Zhao, who seemed to be light-hearted beside him, smiled yin and yang strangely: "In the early years, I only knew that Taoist Shen was murderous and cruel, and no matter what he did, he would not save face for anyone. Unexpectedly, when he came to Tianji Temple today, he was a guest. It's a gift, and I didn't say that I would forcefully break into the mountain gate. It's really like 'Scholars should be impressed in three days' ah."
Shen Du ignored the thorns hidden in his words, knowing that the little novice should go to communicate, so he no longer sent people from his side up the mountain, just turned over and got off the horse, stepping on the river beach and soaking in water. He looked up at the stone tablet with "Zhi Ge" engraved on the back of "Tianji Temple".
Immediately he laughed.
Gu Zhao looked at him, but saw Shen Du stretch out his hand to point at the stone tablet, and said unexpectedly, "Gu Shaoshan, you must be mad with hatred when you see this stone tablet? A Hongmen banquet was planned against me a month ago, and it was the right time and place to catch up. People and people, it’s rare to meet my people who betray their relatives and leave. It’s a pity that I fled here, afraid of the prestige of the Chanyuan, and watched the Taoist master make a comeback.”
"… "
Which pot is not open to mention which pot!
Gu Zhao's eyelids jumped, and the rest of the righteous people who heard this also felt like they had been slapped in the face, and the blood all over their bodies rushed to their faces.
Even Pei Wuji, Cui Hong and the others on the Demon Dao side are not very good-looking. After all, it wasn't just the righteous people who wanted to die alone.
But who could have guessed
An escape in a desperate situation allowed Shen Du to successfully escape to the Tianji Temple, which is difficult for ordinary martial arts forces to set foot on, making everyone's calculations in vain.
There was a moment of silence in the field.
Everyone on the demon path and the right path has passed through the narrow canyon, and gathered together under the first mountain gate, which looks dark.
After waiting for more than a moment, someone finally came to the mountain.
Shen Du was the first to hear footsteps, so he was also the first to look up the mountain, and at a glance, he saw an old monk in a red cassock and holding a vajra stick, and nearly a hundred people of different generations. The monk followed behind.
At a glance, you can see that those behind are monks.
Thinking that he never concealed his whereabouts along the way, the Tianji Temple should have been prepared long ago, so this is the battle to welcome them.
"Amitabha, the Tianji Temple has not been visited by outsiders for a long time. Today, I learned that the donors worshipped the mountain gate early in the morning and were not able to greet them from afar. It is really disrespectful to the academy."
Of course, what brings people here is fate.
When he got under the first mountain gate, he stopped and made a bow with one hand upright, his voice old and peaceful.
It is rumored that the cultivation of fate is not low in this Tianji Temple, and he has experienced the three volumes of martial arts essentials that Wu Sheng fled to the temple back then, so he also has an extraordinary reputation in the rivers and lakes.
Apart from Shanzai who guards the Thousand Buddhas Hall, he is the most well known.
Shen Du's gaze couldn't help but swept across the wrinkles on his face and the gray and white mixed in his long eyebrows, but he didn't return to the great monk's salute for the first time. Instead, he turned his eyes and looked around behind him again. With a bit of disappointment, he retracted his gaze, and made a fake bow: "I waited uninvited today, disturbing the cleanliness of your courtyard, I should be the one to apologize for this, fate. Abbot Mie is polite."
Yuanmie is an elderly person, and he has seen many ups and downs in the rivers and lakes, and he has seen all kinds of powerful figures in the martial arts. Just now, Shen Du's wandering eyes have not been hidden, and it is easy to do In his eyes.
Clearly looking for someone.
So he couldn't help but look at Shen Du, and the first thing he noticed was his outstanding appearance, but then he saw the irresistible anger in his eyebrows. Although the person smiled, it was difficult to hide the evil spirit of killing too much.
"Although the Chanyuan is a place outside the world, it can't be said to be pure or unclean. I just don't know, what is the important thing for Shen Shi who is here today?"
This is knowingly asked.
Of course, Yuan Mie knew what he was here for, but he had to ask.
Shen Du could vaguely see that the old bald donkey didn't like him, but he just remembered that the monk he liked might still be in the temple, so he suppressed his temper and didn't have a flare-up, and said: "The abbot was a witness back then. I still remember that Wu Sheng Lou Dongwang fled to the Tianji Temple 16 years ago, and when he was dying, he left three volumes of the essence of his years of intensive research on martial arts, and left a note saying that in the future, if future generations want to go up the mountain to want these three volumes The essence of martial arts, I asked Tianji Chanyuan to transfer it. Shen Mou is not talented, and recently he accidentally rescued a son, surnamed Lou Mingzhang, who is a descendant of Wu Sheng. So today, I specially brought Lou son, and invited Lu Zhuangzhu, Gu Shaoshan and other martial arts comrades came to testify and worshipped the Tianji Temple, and I hope that your academy will return the three volumes of the Buddha's Tibetan Buddhism according to the last wish of Wu Sheng."
What a high-sounding bastard!
Who doesn't know that Wu Sheng's descendants are the ones who stole it from Gu Zhao halfway? For this reason, he also slaughtered all the people who traveled with him at that time, creating a big murder in the martial arts!
How dare you say such a thing today!
Abbot Rao Shiyuan has seen a lot of this virtuous person in the rivers and lakes, and he has never felt that who has such a vicious and abominable face of the Taoist Shen in front of him, and the expression on his face is a little cold.
He raised his eyes and stared at Shen Du for a long time, and finally announced a Buddha name.
"Amitabha, Master Shen brought the descendants of the sage Wu here today, and there are other martial arts fellows from all over the world to testify. Our institute should return the three volumes of martial arts essence according to the wish of the sage. It's just that my temple has the rules of the temple. If Master Shen wants to enter this place today. Shanmen, for Lou Shi, is mainly returning to these three volumes of the Buddha's collection, but he still needs to understand the cause and effect of his body."
Shen Du had long expected that this matter would not be so easy, but after all, his purpose was not really on the Buddha Treasure, so he was not surprised when he heard the predestined promise.
On the contrary, the words behind the other party made him feel strange.
"cause and effect?"
"My Tianji Chanyuan does not wait for guests with bad behavior. What mortals do, they are all seen by the law of heaven, and no living beings can escape."
Abbot Yuanmie lowered his eyes, but his words seemed to exhort him.
"Before more than a month ago, Taoist Shen sneaked into the Chanyuan twice, the first time he broke into the Thousand Buddhas Hall and was smashed by others and returned empty-handed; the second time he broke in, he left a rant in front of the Buddha of the West Heaven, and the second time he stole me. It is like a sacred relic in the Chanyuan. Since the Taoist master has come today, the crime of disrespecting the Buddha can be omitted, but this thing is still requested by Taoist Shen to return it completely.”
"Wow!"
As soon as Abbot Yuanmie said these words, the Chanyuan was fine, at most they glared angrily at Shen Du, but the people of the right way who followed him were instantly blown up!
"It's really him!"
"Sure enough, something was stolen. As the saying goes, thieves don't get away..."
As early as when Shen Du came out of the Tianji Temple, the news that the Thousand Buddhas Hall had left rhetoric for the demons and demons had already spread across the rivers and lakes. Although Tianji Temple did not clearly say who did it, but looking at today's martial arts, who would dare to do it except Shen Du
At that time, many people suspected that Shen Du had stolen the three volumes of the Buddha's collection.
It's just that Shen Du first kidnapped Lou Dongwang, the descendant of Sage Wu, and then went to the world to make a big gamble with Gu Zhao. Today, he even forced the Tianji Temple to ask for these three volumes of Buddhist treasures. Everyone thought that he might have gone empty.
But who would have thought that the abbot of Rentianji Temple would throw out such a shocking news-
Shen Du really took something away!
Just listening to the meaning of the abbot's fate, it seems that it is not a three-volume Buddhist treasure, but something in the Tianji Temple.
Shen Du's complexion turned ugly almost instantly.
His sharp eyes were filled with a hint of coldness, and fell on the calm face of Abbot Yuanmie. Although he heard the sudden explosion behind him, he was thinking of this bald man. The truth of the donkey's words.
Three volumes of Buddha Tibetans, sacred objects of the Zen Temple
The eyebrows raised slightly, all kinds of thoughts and all kinds of calculations have been passed from the bottom of Shen Du's heart, and then he laughed contemptuously, as if he had heard a joke: "Abbot Yuanmie didn't joke with this Taoist master? Come here, this is a kind-hearted house, and I want to do what I want for Mr. Lou. You Tianji Temple is detached from the martial arts, and you refuse to return the three volumes of martial arts essentials left by Martial Sage. It’s enough to say that the Taoist master has entered the Temple of Thousand Buddhas at night, and he dares to slander the Taoist master and steal the sacred objects of your Zen temple! Bald donkey, you dare to say this, can you show evidence?”
The "Fate Abbot" who was still in front of him shouted, and if he disagreed, he said "bald donkey" very rudely. How many monks in the temple have ever encountered such a sharp-toothed person, and wanted to scold for a while, But he didn't know where to start drinking.
Right here is also boos.
But the leading people, such as Gu Zhao and others, didn't say a word: Tianji Chanyuan would not slander anyone without any reason, but what Shen Du said was the truth.
Yuan Mie Abbot has not met such a difficult person for a long time.
No one except Shanzai witnessed what happened in the Thousand Buddha Hall that day, let alone Shanzai was not there on the day when the Buddha beads were stolen, and no one saw it at all.
But he did not expect that Shen Du would deny it so easily, and he was speechless for a while.
The two already gray eyebrows immediately wrinkled.
Yuanmie pondered for a moment, and finally turned his head, wanting to call someone to ask something. But just as he turned his head, there was a sudden commotion behind him.
Nearly a hundred monks moved from back to front, all retreating to both sides, as if to make way for someone.
The people below the mountain gate also noticed it.
Shen Du didn't take it seriously, he just guessed that a more important person from Tianji Temple had arrived, and looked in that direction with a full face.
But when the crowd backed away, revealing the shape of a person, his whole person seemed to have been casted by a body-fixing spell, completely stagnant.
Ang Zang's body was wrapped in a loose monk's robe, his fingers like jade were held together in front of him, and there was a little pity between his lowered eyebrows, but his cold and calm expression was like a god and Buddha sitting high in the west. out of reach.
This is clearly the face he has been thinking about all these days.
At this moment, the smile on Shen Du's lips almost hung up, but the next moment, he was dazzled by the snow-white body that was blown by the wind.
Why is the monk he likes wearing a white robe
The huge, sudden daze made him lose all his reactions at once, only with a vague absurdity that he didn't even dare to face, watching the monk walk from a distance to a close place and walk in front of him.
The smell of sandalwood is getting closer.
The monk lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, stood on the steps, and bowed his head to him: "Donor Shen, the poor monk is very good, you are polite."
