Three Wonders of Huashan

Chapter 90 Shaolin Temple

Dongfang Bubai still has lingering fears. If it weren't for He Er and He San's lack of experience in fighting the enemy, he might suffer a big loss.

The enemy has retreated, and Fang Ze no longer argues with Dongfang Bubai, and directly asks: "Where is my master now, I hope the Dongfang leader will tell you!"

"Hmph, how many years have I not been out of this garden, does Fang Shaoxia know? Dongfang Bubai has long been tired of fighting and killing in the rivers and lakes, and just wants to accompany Brother Lian on the Blackwood Cliff. Remnant life. I really don’t know where Yue Buqun is going. I only told you so much today for the sake of fighting against a powerful enemy. If I continue to entangle you in the future, I won’t be as polite as I am today.” After Dongfang finished speaking, he walked away, apparently in a hurry to appease his brother Lian.

"I'm bothering you!" Fang Ze turned around and left.Dongfang Bubai turned his head and threw a token over, Fang Ze reached out to pick it up, only to hear Dongfang Bubai say: "Hold this token and go down the mountain without hindrance!"

"No need!" Fang Ze threw back the token casually.After a few run-up steps, he jumped and jumped off the cliff.

"Could it be that he is looking for death?" Yang Lianting is quite self-aware, but he cannot handle anyone who finds Dongfang Bubai.Therefore, when Dongfang Bubai was fighting against others, he would never come out to get in the way.It was only now that he poked his head out of the house, and just in time to see Fang Ze jumping down, his face changed color in shock.

Dongfang Bubai let out a long sigh, and said, "Brother Lian, don't provoke the Five Sacred Sword Sect in the future."

Although Yang Lianting is good at playing Weifu, he is not a fool.He knew that his current status was entirely due to the reputation of Dongfang Invincible.Hearing this, he just nodded and helped Dongfang Bubai into the monastery.

Fang Ze tried his best to climb up the Black Wood Cliff this time, but he didn't find any useful news, and he was depressed and frowning.Alone, I don't know where to find the master's whereabouts.He secretly said in his heart, "Master's wife should have also heard the news of Master's disappearance, but I don't know what kind of chaos Huashan is now." Fang Ze sent people to Huashan to report safety, and at the same time listened to the news along the way.

There was no news from the beggar gang either.Fang Ze's melancholy couldn't be resolved, and he wandered aimlessly along the official road.It wasn't just a day, and I came to the boundary of Songshan Mountain unknowingly.Fang Ze didn't have much friendship with the Songshan School, so he thought of going to the Shaolin Temple to visit the eminent Shaolin monks.

Shaoshi Mountain in Henan Province is quite steep, but the mountain path is a long row of wide stone steps, the scale is magnificent, and the project is really not small. It was excavated by Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty for the Shaolin Temple, with a total length of eight miles.Fang Ze went up along the stone steps, and saw five waterfalls on the opposite mountain flying beads and jade, rushing down, and looking down at the mountains, they were like ants.Turning a corner along the mountain road, you can see a huge temple with yellow walls and green tiles.He walked slowly towards the front of the temple, only to see a forest of steles shaded by dense trees.Most of the stone tablet has been destroyed, and the handwriting is blurred. I don't know what is written on it.

Fang Ze looked at the forest of steles in a daze, and suddenly heard the voice of reciting Buddhist scriptures from behind the bushes beside the forest of steles: "It is the time when the king of Yaocha is about to, and among the countless hundreds of thousands of millions of people, he said Shengmiao Jiata: "Because of love." Sorrow arises, and fear arises out of love; apart from the beloved, there is neither worry nor fear..."

In Fang Ze's previous life, he studied classical literature, and all schools of thought have dabbled in it, but he knows little about Buddhist classics alone.Fang Ze waited until the chanting was over, and pushed aside the bushes, he saw a big monk, wearing a gray robe, with a sad face, sitting cross-legged under the gazebo.Not far away, a woman was facing the old monk from a distance, and her face was full of dissatisfaction.

"Miss Ren? Why are you here?"

Ren Yingying suddenly turned her head when she heard the familiar voice, her face flashed with joy, then she lowered her head shyly, and said in a muffled voice, "I...I..."

Fang Ze saw the discontent on Ren Yingying's face, he bowed to the old monk and said, "Fang Ze is sent to Xiahua Mountain, I don't know how this girl offended the eminent Shaolin monk?"

"Amitabha! There is no offence. The benefactor is just in time. Hurry up and take this female benefactor away." Seeing Fang Ze, the old monk hurriedly replied as if seeing a savior.

"Miss Ren, what's going on?" Fang Ze became curious.

Ren Yingying said: "I'm just depressed and want to go to Shaolin Temple for a few days... This great monk refuses to die... They won't let me go up, but I want to go up... So they won't let me go up the mountain for a day, so I will Stay here every day to prevent pilgrims from going up the mountain..." She also knew that she was wrong, so she spoke eagerly.

"Amitabha! It's really inconvenient for the Buddhist holy place of Shaolin Temple to keep the female benefactor to live on the mountain forever." The old monk looked miserable.

Fang Ze couldn't help laughing after listening to it, he had been depressed for many days, but today he began to smile.He said to Ren Yingying, "Miss Ren can't beat the great monk?"

"Amitabha, the female benefactor is strong in martial arts, and the poor monk is no match. It's just that Miss Ren is blocking the pilgrims, and the poor monk can only stop Miss Ren."

Ren Yingying didn't accept his feelings, and said: "The great monk is very skilled in martial arts...but he has been letting me...but I have nowhere to go anyway, so I spend time with him here. I will come when he leaves, and later This old monk just sits here and doesn't leave." After she said this, her voice became lower and lower, and gradually became inaudible.

The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, it is not right for a female benefactor to prevent all sentient beings from turning their hearts to the Buddha."

"Isn't the Great Monk also blocking my heart towards Buddha!" ​​Ren Yingying retorted.

The great monk was speechless, he was really not good at eloquence.

"Master, how about I take this female benefactor up the mountain for a tour, and then come down immediately?" Fang Ze suggested to the old monk.

"Very good! Very good!" The old monk was beaming when he heard the words, the creases on his face stretched out, he got up and walked up the mountain.

Fang Ze looked at this old monk who was at least eight or ninety years old. Just looking at the monk robes he was wearing, his status in Shaolin Temple should not be very high.However, his heart is pure and compassionate, and Fang Ze couldn't help but feel reverence for it.

After the old monk had left, Fang Ze teased, "Miss Ren is disillusioned and wants to become a monk in Shaolin Temple?"

"I'm not going out!" When Ren Yingying faced Fang Ze alone, she felt her heart pounding.Everything he said was missed in her ears.

The two climbed up the stairs and looked at the surrounding scenery. Not long after, the two of them stood higher than all the buildings in Shaolin Temple, but they saw the cliffs of Shaoshi Mountain piercing the sky, horizontal like a screen, the wind and smoke under the cliffs were misty, and the bells in the temple followed the wind Send it, it will wash away the vulgarity.

"Miss Ren, listening to the morning bells and evening drums, and admiring the breathtaking scenery in the mountains, will she feel better?"

Ren Yingying murmured: "That's right, it would be fine if it keeps doing this."

Fang Ze waved his hands and said nonchalantly, "Shaolin Temple won't keep you. I know of a place where the scenery is as good as Shaoshi Mountain, and the beauty of Xuankong Temple is even better in the world. If Miss Ren wants to become a monk and practice, the Hengshan Sect is Couldn't be more suitable..."

Ren Yingying was furious when she heard the words, and couldn't help but said: "Who wants to become a monk? You are the one who wants to become a monk." Her original intention was that it would be fine if she and Fang Ze had been like this forever, but Fang Ze actually thought that she couldn't It is a pity to stay in Shaoshi Mountain for a long time.

Looking at Ren Yingying's shy and coquettish face, Fang Ze couldn't help being a little distracted, and couldn't help but praise: "Miss Ren, you are so beautiful! If you become a nun, I will definitely become a monk as well."

"You...you...you are... full of nonsense...I am ugly, you are not allowed to look at it." Ren Yingying turned her face away, but she couldn't hide the joy in her heart.

"Fang Shaoxia and Miss Ren came to Shaolin Temple, and I am sorry to welcome you! Forgive me, forgive me!" Master Fang Zheng led a monk and bowed to the two of them from a long distance away.

Ren Yingying pursed her lips, and said in her heart: "I have been here for half a month, and you old monk won't even let me go up the mountain. It's a coincidence that I got here at this moment."

Fang Ze quickly stood up and saluted, "Master Fang Zheng! This master is..."

"Amitabha, the poor monk was born."

Fang Ze saluted and said, "Master Fang Sheng."

"Fang Shaoxia, have you found Mr. Yue?" Master Fang Zheng asked.

Fang Ze asked suspiciously: "How did Master Fang Zheng know about the disappearance of the teacher?"

Master Fang Zheng said solemnly: "Seven or eight days ago, I received a letter from Lady Ning. Now that Huashan disciples have come out in droves, there are probably very few people in the world who don't know about Mr. Yue's disappearance."
