The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 17 The sword is strong in Longquan Temple

Longquan Temple was first built in the Cao Wei period and is located on the hillside of Longquan, hence the name Longquan Temple.

For thousands of years, incense has flourished.

It is also at this time.There is an endless stream of pilgrims going up and down the mountain.

Feng Jiuxiao saw that Longquan Mountain stretched for several miles, with beautiful scenery, dense pines and cypresses, and water around the southeast, forming its own climate.In short, Feng Shui is excellent.

The closer you get to Longquan Temple, the more pilgrims there are, shoulder to shoulder, almost impenetrable.

Enter the main hall with the flow of people.There are three Buddha statues enshrined in the hall, the past Buddha, the present Buddha and the future Buddha.This is the first time I have seen this kind of worship formation.

The Buddhas of the past are the Buddhas of Kasyapa, also known as the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamps, the Buddha of the present is Shakyamuni Buddha, and the Buddha of the future is Maitreya Buddha.

There is a case in front of the niche, and there is a signature on the case.Before the trial, an elderly monk sat next to him and was in charge of drawing lots, and many devout men and believers lined up to draw lots.

At this time, a young girl was sitting at the table opposite the monk, her eyes were wide open, and her face was full of anticipation.Standing next to her was a girl who looked like a maid, her almond eyes were also wide open.Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but take a second look.

Feng Jiuxiao thought to herself: This girl is so beautiful, she doesn't seem to know martial arts by looking at her movements, how dare she go deep into the forest with only a maidservant?Searching with imperceptible eyes, I found that many martial arts masters were mixed in the crowd, or pretended to appreciate the words on the wall, or pretended to worship Buddha, but their eyes wandered to the girl's side from time to time, thinking that the gods did not know ghosts. However, unexpectedly, Feng Jiuxiao's every move fell into Feng Jiuxiao's eyes.When the two girls finished testing the lottery and got up to go out, the servant girl gave him a glare and scolded softly: "What are you looking at?" Then the two walked out of the hall.After the lottery testing by the previous few people, Feng Jiuxiao was finally in line.Now that I'm here, I naturally ask for a sign.

Shake the lottery container and draw a lottery:
Su Qin got his wish to sign!
The monk looked at the bamboo stick and said: "Pedestrians complain that the sun is hard to swallow, and if there is a sudden disaster, don't come near; birds break through the forest and have nowhere to stay, so they can find a deep place to stay safe."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Master, what is this sign? Solution?"

The monk said: "You may encounter danger and trouble in the near future. Fortunately, you can turn the danger into good luck, so don't worry."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Thank you, master." But he was quite strange in his heart, how could there be any trouble recently?Is there something wrong with Mr. Gao?I thought to myself: Never mind him, let's live with the situation.

After leaving the main hall, I am going to continue to browse the halls behind.

At this time, I heard an angry shout from outside the hall: "Brave maniac, court death!"

Then there was an exclamation outside, and the crowd fled in all directions.Someone shouted: "Run, kill!"

Feng Jiuxiao hurried out of the hall.

The crowd fled in all directions like a frightened flock of sheep. On the open space in front of the hall stood a few menacing figures with weapons in their hands.In this Buddhist pure land, it still looks ferocious.A young man fell to the ground, and the blood on the ground was bloody red.

One of them said viciously: "This kid dared to insult my eldest lady, he deserves to die, it has nothing to do with everyone, don't panic!"

But who wasn't panicked at the scene?I ran away early, only some people in the distance who don't know the truth but are curious are watching from afar.

Some monks appeared from all around one after another and surrounded him. The first one was wearing cassock, holding a Zen stick, with white eyebrows drooping, and his eyes were electrified without anger and majesty. It was the abbot, Master Zhiguang.Zhiguang chanted the Buddha's name, and said: "Several benefactors actually killed their lives in my Buddhist pure place, it is really a peace!"

"Master, I'm passing through Guishan with my master, and I came here to offer incense at the treasure temple to fulfill my vows. I don't want this prodigal son to molest my young lady. There is a saying that the master humiliated the minister to death. How can I just sit idly by? It's just that I never thought of this. The silver-like wax gun head of the boy, I can't help but hit it, I will clean it up later, and donate more incense, and hope that the master will be merciful."

"The Millennium Pure Land of Longquan Temple, you are here to say that killing people is killing people, and leaving as soon as you say, is too presumptuous! I, Longquan Temple, don't need your incense money. If you leave like this, my thousand-year reputation of Longquan Temple will be destroyed. Once, who would dare to offer incense?"

"Then what do you think we should do? Let the Taihang Four Ghosts listen first!" Threats and intimidation were already implied in the words.

"Huh, the four ghosts of the Taihang have such a great reputation! I only have one request, the four of you will be ordained here, and you will be free after ten years of crossing the cliff in the back mountain. It is best if you are willing to continue practicing, or you are willing to go down the mountain."

The four ghosts looked at each other for a few moments, and suddenly laughed out loud at the same time, as if they had heard a big joke.

The big ghost had red brows and said with a sneer, "Master, the man has already been killed, and we have said everything we should say, but the master is not willing to let it go. I will take my leave." Since the old monk is not happy, then he is not happy. , The corpses are ignored, let them clean up by themselves.

Zhiguang said: "There are two reasons why you are so arrogant. Either you think your master is so powerful that our Little Longquan Temple can't afford to offend you, or you think your martial arts are too high, and you think we monks can't keep you. Donor, There is a saying for you, there are mountains beyond the mountains, and there is a sky beyond the sky."

The two ghosts with big heads, wide mouths, and scars on their faces said, "Are you that Heaven? Or that Heaven Beyond Heaven? Let's go out like this today, what can you do?" Extremely arrogant and domineering.

The eyebrows of the three ghosts are like eight knives, they are born with eight-character eyebrows, their eyes are like the sun and the moon, one big and one small, their noses are like Xuantian, and their mouths are like cattle. What's your business?" The four ghosts have broom eyebrows, triangular eyes, and a big hemorrhoid on the right cheek, with three strands of long hair growing on it, and their words are the most direct: "Bad donkey, if you don't get out of here, you will be reborn in bliss immediately!"

Master Zhiguang said: "Amitabha. All the benefactors said that this young man is contemptuous of the noble master. Can anyone prove it?"

Big ghost: "You bald donkey, you talked nicely with you but you didn't appreciate it. Brothers, if we kill him now, the head will not blame me, right?"

The three ghosts said: "No. The sect master said that in everything, you should be courteous before fighting. You must first reason with others. If they don't listen to our principles, it's not too late to act!"

Master Zhiguang sighed and said, "If others don't listen to your reasoning, it means they are being unreasonable? Can you do it justifiably?"

The four ghosts said: "Not bad!"

"Okay, okay, very good. I've been telling you the truth for a long time, but you don't listen, so I won't blame you if you kill the Buddha!" ​​Master Zhiguang suddenly took a step forward, and walked in front of the four ghosts with just one step !So easy!The four ghosts were all shocked!Master Zhiguang swiped his Zen stick again and again. Before the big ghost, the second ghost, and the third ghost could react, they were already beaten and flew out like kites with broken strings. withdraw.

I don't want to, a sharp sound of breaking the wind rushed towards me, I knew it was going to my calf, but I couldn't dodge it!Because the hidden weapon is too fast!Various complex feelings of helplessness, fear, and horror came to my heart in an instant!
With a pop, the calf was pierced.With a scream, he fell to the ground.The moment he fell down, something finally pierced his calf.

A Buddhist bead.

Not only the skin and flesh of the calf was pierced, but a big hole was also pierced in the calf bone, comminuted fracture!There is no possibility of recovery in this life!
The other three ghosts vomited blood, their ribs were broken, and they also sat on the ground and groaned.

Master Zhiguang said: "Lock them up first, Huijing, go find some medicine to stop their bleeding first. Huiming, go and report to the government, and say that four murderers have been caught, please send someone to take over."

Huijing and Huiming pressed their palms together: "Yes."

The four ghosts were so painful that their faces were deformed, and they sneered ferociously: "Do you know who we are? How dare you report to the police?"

Master Zhiguang ignored him, and said loudly to the pilgrims in the distance: "Benefactors, some bandits have already subdued the Dharma, please rest assured and continue to worship Buddha!" ​​The voice can be heard for several miles.

The four ghosts endured the pain and said, "Do you really want to report to the officials?"

Master Zhiguang said: "Could it be fake?"

A voice sounded from behind Master Zhiguang: "Master Zhiguang, your reputation for subduing demons and fighting skills is indeed well-deserved, how about letting me teach you a few more moves?"

Master Zhiguang turned around slowly.

Three people in different costumes stood in front of them with their hands behind their backs.The one in the middle wears a golden crown and wears a jade pendant around his waist.On the left is a man with a face like a jujube, a red robe, and a long sword hanging from his waist.The one on the right has leopard eyes, a hooked nose, a green robe, and a long knife hanging from his waist.All three are in their 40s.

Master Zhiguang said: "Your Excellency must be a family with the Taihang Four Ghosts?"

The man in Chinese clothes said: "You can say that."

Master Zhiguang said: "You also want to explain your reasoning?"

The man in the Chinese costume laughed, and said: "How can my reasoning be better than the master's? Why don't we simply say that if I win within [-] moves, I will take the four ghosts away. If I don't win within [-] moves, The four ghosts are dealt with by the master."

Everyone was shocked.

Listening to his tone, it doesn't take thirty strokes to defeat Master Zhiguang. It seems that martial arts is a first-class series.

Feng Jiuxiao thought to himself: This Taihang School is not a famous school, how could there be such a master.Zhiguang thought: "It seems that the other party still has backup, but has been hiding in the dark. If you don't respond to him decisively, I'm afraid it will inevitably hurt innocent people." So he chanted the Buddha's name and said: "Please benefactor!"

The man in Chinese clothes took a step forward without any hesitation, the distance between the two shrank from seven feet to five feet, he saw his fingers parallel to each other like swords, condensing his energy into strength, and slashed at Master Zhiguang with the move of "Iron Lock Hengjiang".Master Zhiguang saw that the man in the Chinese costume was able to control Qi and form a sword, he ate his two fingers parallel to each other to form a sword art, a burst of true energy shot out from his fingertips like a substance, he jumped up quickly, and at the same time swung his Zen stick at the man's face in Chinese clothes. The man in the Chinese costume changed his moves very quickly, and he had already changed into a seal. The sword energy intersected with the Zen staff and made a strange sound.After Master Zhiguang floated to the ground, he felt a slight numbness in his palm, and the Zen stick trembled slightly.Look at the place where the Zen stick is receiving force, there is an obvious deep sword mark!
Pointing to the sword's sword energy, it made a deep mark on the Zen staff!
Master Zhiguang said in his heart: don't say thirty moves, within ten moves, he is afraid that he will be injured by the Qi sword!
Although the skill I have practiced hard for 40 years is not trivial, splitting the palm can also shatter two green bricks three feet away, but with a man in a Chinese suit who uses his fingers as a sword, turns Qi into strength, and can break gold and break jade three feet away In comparison, his own martial arts pales in comparison.But if you admit defeat at this point, Longquan Temple's thousand-year prestige will no longer exist.Zhiguang secretly sighed: "It's a pity that Junior Brother Zhixin is traveling around the world again, otherwise he will surely turn the world around with his great compassionate handprint magic." amazing!The feet of the man in the Chinese costume are like flowing clouds and flowing water, and the finger sword is like writing in the air. He looks chic, but the sword is so strong that he can't stand within a few feet. Half.

Master Zhiguang's only goal now is to survive thirty strokes!

After thirty strokes, even if you are proficient in martial arts, you can only return home in defeat!

After twenty strokes, Master Zhiguang tried his best to use the No. 20 "Sweeping the Demons", and swept away violently from the waist. This time, the man in the Chinese costume did not retreat but advanced, grabbed the Zen stick, and drove straight in with his sword. Straight to Zhiguang's heart!Master Zhiguang couldn't help being terrified, and hurriedly backed away, so he could only withdraw his hand and give up the Zen stick!The man in fine clothes didn't chase after him, he raised his Zen staff high and said with a big laugh, "Master, can you let me go?"

Zhiguang's face was ashen-colored, he closed his eyes, clasped his palms together, and said nothing.

Everyone knows that it has already acquiesced.

Zhiguang was defeated by the man in Chinese clothes in less than thirty moves, he was really ashamed and had nothing to say.

Although Longquan Temple has always been famous all over the world for its profound Buddhism and not for its martial arts, it is the first time in so many years that people have been so humiliated. In front of dozens of Longquan Temple monks, in front of thousands of monks In front of the pilgrims, 21 tricks to take away your own Zen staff!

Since the skills are not as good as people, I have to let them go.

It's just that the reputation of Longquan Temple may plummet!
The man in Chinese clothes said with a smile to the two people beside him: "Let's go, I think the eldest lady is tired of waiting." He waved his hand and pointed to the direction of the Taihang Four Ghosts, and five or six strong men rushed out of the crowd and directly set up the four ghosts. The ghost went out.

Suddenly someone asked: "Is it appropriate to go this way?"
