Chapter 218

Before Meng Xiuyuan's visit, he had never thought about these things carefully.

Traveling through two lifetimes, counting from the time when he descended from Wudang Mountain and saw the first bandit who robbed a civilian girl, he could be said to have killed countless people.

But when he asked himself, Meng Xiuyuan had never been in a state of confusion when he thought that what he killed was either a treacherous person or an enemy who wanted to put him to death.

Therefore, even though his hands were covered with blood, he never had any distress because of it.

After all, although he didn't dare to say that he was a great hero or a good person, but in this arena where moral standards were generally low, Meng Xiuyuan thought that what he had done was pretty good.

People are not sages, so there is no need to be too harsh on yourself.

However, after these series of incidents in recent days, and the concentrated outbreak of conflicts, Meng Xiuyuan discovered that he had unintentionally and indirectly hurt many innocent people.

Just when he was thinking about whether his actions could be improved, Xu Zhu's appearance touched his heart quite a bit.

Seeing the virtuous and thinking together, Meng Xiuyuan thought for a moment, then simply asked Xu Zhu:
"Little Master Xu Zhu, I want to ask you.

What would you do if you met a treacherous person who confirmed that he had killed many innocent people? "

His question was mostly out of curiosity, and he just wanted to use it for reference, so he didn't mean to be serious.

However, Xu Zhu was stunned by this sudden question, he stood there blankly for a while, and then he replied to Meng Xiuyuan:

"The monks are merciful, and when the monk encounters a bad person, he should stop him from doing evil.

It's just that the little monk's martial arts are not good, far inferior to Mr. Meng, I'm afraid..."

"Just pretend your martial arts are the same as mine." Meng Xiuyuan interrupted with a helpless smile when he heard the words.

"Ah... such a good thing, I have never dared to think about it."

Hearing what Meng Xiuyuan said, Xu Zhu patted his head in embarrassment and giggled for a while, before he spoke again:

"If I really have the martial arts skills of Mr. Meng, I will subdue that villain.

Then...then I used the Dharma to save him and let him correct his evil and return to righteousness.

When his faith is restored, let him do more good deeds to make atonement for the evil deeds he committed in the past. "

Apparently, Xu Zhu never thought about this kind of unconstrained and unconstrained style, so he stumbled when answering, and what he said were the sincere words that first surfaced in his heart.

Hearing the sound, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help shaking his head, and said to Xu Zhu:
"How can it be so easy to save a treacherous and evil person.

If he just pretends to deceive you, making you think that he has changed his ways, but only when you don't notice, he will harm others again, what should we do?
Under such circumstances, didn't you also indulge in the sins he committed later? "

"This..." Xu Zhu was taken aback by Meng Xiuyuan's question again, feeling rather embarrassed.He looked up at Meng Xiuyuan, hesitated and said:

"Then according to what you think, should all such sinners be killed?

But killing to stop killing and creating more injustices is not the answer after all..."

Speaking of this, Xu Zhu suddenly felt a surge of heat in his heart, he couldn't help saying to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Young Master Meng, I thought of it.

When encountering such a treacherous and evil person, only with great wisdom and perseverance can we save him.

As long as the Buddha has the ambition to feed tigers and cut meat to feed eagles, no matter what kind of wicked people they are, they will be able to be influenced by Buddhism..."

Meng Xiuyuan was taken aback when he heard the words, then he laughed and shook his head, then he didn't answer Xu Zhu again.

Although this little master has a high realm, he really can't learn it.

……

For the next few days, Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu lived together in this small village.

At first there was no special reason, but Xu Zhu had just been swept out of the temple, he didn't know where to settle down for a while, Meng Xiuyuan took him in for the time being.

But later, things changed abruptly.

On this day, Xu Zhu bid farewell to Meng Xiuyuan, saying that he was bothering Meng Xiuyuan for a long time, and he was really embarrassed to stay any longer.

Hearing this, Meng Xiuyuan didn't hold back, he just took out the "Shenzu Jing", soaked it in water and handed it to Xu Zhu to read, he wanted him to learn this Kung Fu too.

After all, this little monk is simple-minded and kind-hearted, so he may encounter many troubles in the world alone.If you don't have good martial arts, it will be too dangerous.

There are not many good people in this world, and Meng Xiuyuan didn't want to see the few remaining in disaster.

Meng Xiuyuan lied to Xu Zhu, saying that this is just an ordinary Daoyin technique for strengthening the body, and he learned it because he saw that he was weak, so he didn't refuse.

I don't want to, after this Xu Zhu simply learned a few strange movements in "Shenzu Jing", he was soon and unconsciously attracted by the scriptures in this book:

"'Everything has no birth, and there is no cause and death. In the midst of that birth and death, the thought of cause and condition arises'...

Mr. Meng, what kind of Buddhist scriptures are you talking about? Why have I never seen them before?

Also, your picture seems to have nothing to do with the scriptures in the book, right? "

Meng Xiuyuan was greatly surprised when he heard the words, he asked Xu Zhu:

"Little Master Xu Zhu, you can actually understand the Sanskrit in this book?"

He knew that what Xu Zhu recited just now should be the content of the Sanskrit version of Yi Jin Jing.

Xu Zhu could not help being a little shy when he heard the surprise and praise in Meng Xiuyuan's words, he touched his head and nodded:

"When I was in the temple, I saw that some ancient scriptures in the Sutra Pavilion were written in Sanskrit, and there was no Chinese translation, so I asked the lecturer uncle of the Bodhidharma Hall for advice on the contents.

It's just that I'm blunt and always learn very slowly, which makes my uncle a little impatient.

Later, he simply asked me to learn how to read Sanskrit..."

Meng Xiuyuan was even more surprised when he heard the words, he thought that although Xu Zhu looked a little dazed, it turned out that there was hidden wisdom in his heart.

Faced with the translator who came to his door, Meng Xiuyuan never let it go.He immediately asked Xu Zhu to translate the Sanskrit version of "Yi Jin Jing" from the beginning to the end.

Although Xu Zhu was modest, he said some excuses such as "I'm stupid, I'm afraid the translation will be distorted", but in the end he still didn't refuse.

Therefore, the two stayed in this small village for a while longer, studying the contents of the "Yi Jin Jing" together.

It was from then on that Meng Xiuyuan gradually realized that he had underestimated this "Yi Jin Jing" after all.

The word "research" is used because it is really not easy to interpret the "Yi Jin Jing".

The reason is still to talk about the origin of Shaolin's "Yi Jin Jing".

According to legend, Patriarch Bodhidharma left this sutra on the side of the stone wall nine years before his death.After his disciple Master Huike obtained the scriptures, he studied hard for 20 years, but found nothing.

It was not until later that Master Hui Ke met a young man who was proficient in martial arts on Chang'an Road, and talked for three days and three nights before he understood all the secrets of martial arts in the "Yi Jin Jing".

That young man was Li Jing, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, who later assisted Emperor Taizong to pacify the Turks, became a general, became a prime minister, and was named Duke of Wei.

At this time, the Chinese version of "Yi Jin Jing" circulated in Shaolin Temple was written by Li Jing.And the Sanskrit version of "Yi Jin Jing" that Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu held in their hands at this time is the original content left by Bodhidharma.

Compared with this, the original "Yi Jin Jing" in Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu's hands at this time is naturally more obscure and difficult to understand, but it is also more profound and profound, without losing the original meaning.

Compared to the young Li Jing back then, Meng Xiuyuan, who has gone through two lifetimes and acquired countless miraculous skills, is not inferior in martial arts knowledge. It stands to reason that interpreting the scriptures should not be a problem.

But this "Yi Jin Jing" is so strange, it is not just a martial art, but a fusion of Buddhism and martial arts, and they are closely related to each other, regardless of you and me.

This made Meng Xiuyuan, who knew nothing about Buddhism, very distressed, and his research progress was greatly affected.

Fortunately Xu Zhu devotes all his heart to Buddha, he has read many Buddhist scriptures in the temple in the past.Although the self-evaluation is "stupid, dull, and uncultivable", it may be because of his pure mind that he is actually quite enlightened in Buddhism.

In the end, after several days of joint discussions, both of them were rewarded.

Xu Zhu is relatively straightforward, he is originally a Shaolin disciple, and he was born with a Buddha heart, so it is very suitable to learn this "Yi Jin Jing".

Although his skill is still shallow for a while, the foundation of a peerless martial arts has been laid.

In comparison, Meng Xiuyuan's original framework of martial arts has been fixed, and it is impossible to change it because of this "Yi Jin Jing".

But this doesn't mean that his gains are less than Xu Zhu's.

There is a lot in common when Kung Fu is practiced to the end.After studying this highest Buddhist martial arts classic, Meng Xiuyuan discovered many wonderful ideas, which are mutually confirmed with what he has learned in the past.

One of the most important points is that Meng Xiuyuan's "Fitness Technique", which has not changed for a long time, finally took the opportunity to update the version.

With the help of "Enlightenment Time", Meng Xiuyuan integrated a lot of content related to body training from "Yi Jin Jing" into his "Health Fitness Technique", which greatly increased its effectiveness and made it more than one step stronger.

Although compared with martial arts such as "Golden Bell Cover" and "Iron Cloth Shirt", "Yi Jin Jing" is not a kung fu method that focuses on body training.But among them, the method of body refining is perhaps even more mysterious.

"Yi Jin Jing" the veins of the whole body are connected with the spirit of the five internal organs, and they are not dispersed in a circle, and they are continuous in movement, Qi is generated from the inside, and blood is moistened from the outside.After practicing, the foundation of the body is stable, which is unparalleled in the world.

After merging into "Healthy Art", not only the effects of exercising the foundation of the human body are mostly preserved, but also like a chemical reaction, a lot of the potential of "Healthy Art" itself has been stimulated.

As a result, after Meng Xiuyuan tried to practice the new version of "Fitness Technique", an idea suddenly appeared in his mind:
To break through the limits of this worldly martial arts, "strengthening the body" is also a broad road.

If in the future, the Xiaoyao School's way of absorbing the spiritual energy of the world does not go smoothly, and it is also a good choice for Meng Xiuyuan to major in this "Fitness Technique".

Paired with "compressed true energy", Meng Xiuyuan would be able to transform from a sword fairy into a Mang King Kong in a few years, and with all his courage, he could beat the floor-sweeping monk.

……

The days of indulging in martial arts always pass quickly.

In the blink of an eye, more than one month has passed, Meng Xiuyuan and Xu Zhu have finally finished researching all the contents of the "Yi Jin Jing" in their hands, it is difficult to find new discoveries in a short period of time.

At this point, Meng Xiuyuan originally wanted to practice his "Fitness Technique" kung fu for a period of time to strengthen his physical body.Just counting the date, the wedding invitation date of Princess Yinchuan of Xixia is approaching, if she doesn't leave, maybe it will be too late.

Although there is a perfect new way, Meng Xiuyuan spent a lot of hard work on the Xiaoyao School's kung fu, and he is not willing to give up just like that.

After all, I still have to try it first, and if it really doesn’t work then, it’s not too late to make other plans.

When parting, Xu Zhu sincerely wished Meng Xiuyuan a few words, saying that he hoped that Mr. Meng will have a smooth journey in the future and everything will be safe.

Meng Xiuyuan laughed out loud when he heard the words, and immediately said the same thing, "I wish little master Xu Zhu a fruitful cultivation as soon as possible", and then turned into a ray of breeze and drifted away.

……

The journey to Xixia was fairly smooth, without any twists and turns.Meng Xiuyuan practiced his kung fu every day and hurried on his way, he only felt that he enjoyed it.

It wasn't until later when we approached Xingzhou, the capital of the Xixia Kingdom, that the number of martial arts fighters we met on the road suddenly increased.

But seeing that these young heroes are all well-dressed, and even their weapons and equipment are very particular, as if they are going to some kind of competition.When acquaintances on the road met each other, they made fun of each other, and they couldn't help asking about the princess's appearance and martial arts;

Apparently, the position of the Consort of the Western Xia Dynasty is really tempting. Many people are willing to try their luck thinking that wealth and wealth can be easily obtained.

Meng Xiuyuan didn't want to participate in it, so he used his lightness kung fu and picked a small path to hurry.

By the time Meng Xiuyuan arrived at Xingzhou, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, the day for choosing a son-in-law during the Qingming Festival was approaching.Although Xingzhou is a big city in Western Xia, it is far inferior to the famous capitals of the Central Plains. There are countless heroes and heroes from all over the world who came to run for son-in-law.

Meng Xiuyuan didn't come to be a son-in-law, so he didn't think about staying in the hotel, but went straight to the Xixia Palace, wanting to talk to his good senior sister Li Qiushui.

But he didn't want to, Meng Xiuyuan walked back and forth in the Xixia Palace for a few times, but he didn't find his figure.

In the end, he found a clue in the palace of the Empress Dowager Xixia.

In front of Li Qiushui's vanity mirror, Meng Xiuyuan found an exquisite envelope that had been laid out long ago, with the words "Tribute to my beloved Junior Brother Meng Xiuyuan" written on it.

When he took it apart, it contained an inn's room card and a marriage proposal document written in Meng Xiuyuan's name.

Apparently, this good senior sister's intention was very clear, she must force Meng Xiuyuan to participate in the selection of the son-in-law.

Meng Xiuyuan didn't know what kind of thoughts she was hiding, but he didn't care too much, he just waited for the time to adapt.

After leaving the palace, Meng Xiuyuan followed the information on the room sign of the inn to find a place to stay, thinking about resting for the night first.

Unexpectedly, the moment he stepped into the backyard of the inn, he saw Murong Fu and his four great officials.

At this time, Mr. Murong was probably seriously injured, his face was already very pale, but suddenly seeing Meng Xiuyuan appearing, his expression became even more ugly.

"Young Master Meng... You are also here to ask for marriage, are you going to be Xi Xia's son-in-law?"

Facing the murderer of his father and enemy in front of him, Murong Fu still didn't show any hatred, on the contrary, he was more concerned about whether Meng Xiuyuan wanted to be the son-in-law of Xixia.

I don't know if he came from the city, or if he really only thought about "reviving the Great Yan" and left the revenge of killing his father behind.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan had no intention of talking to him, so he turned around and wanted to go upstairs to rest.But at this moment, several familiar figures walked in from outside the courtyard.

It was Wang Yuyan who hadn't seen her for a long time, and the four sisters of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum followed behind her.

As soon as Wang Yuyan entered the courtyard, she first glanced in Murong Fu's direction.

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, Murong Fu felt embarrassed for a moment, frowned, and said softly:
"cousin……"

Unexpectedly, Wang Yuyan didn't respond, instead she turned her eyes away, turned her head to look at Meng Xiuyuan, and walked in front of Murong Fu indifferently.

The next moment, Wang Yuyan came to Meng Xiuyuan, saluted him respectfully, and said softly:

"Young Master Meng, please stay safe.

Grandma asked me to say hello to you on her behalf. "
