The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 294 Plum Ridge in the Painting

It's hard to say anything else about this era. The monk's temple was definitely not a shoddy project.

Those are all real, finely crafted materials used to build a temple for the Buddha! Who dares to be a monster? !

The construction level of Panlong Temple is also of a sophisticated level that has stood the test of time. Who would have thought that the hundreds of years of unconditional and safe operation record would be broken today.

Countless wooden citrons fell down along with the crackling green tiles, causing the sergeants and monks to scream in agony.

Of course, Ergou was definitely not exempt from the attack from Brick, or it should be said that he was the key target of this accident.

However, Ergou was much smarter. He ducked down and shrank himself to the side of the old Zen master, letting the old monk, who was almost a head and a half taller than him, bear all the burden.

Then Ergou saw a scene that made him unbelievable.

In fact, at this chaotic moment, except for Ergou, the chicken thief who had been prepared for it, everyone else was in panic and confusion.

Damn it! ~Who has the time to worry about the life and death of others when a brick is being hit on his head?

A wave of tiles fell on Ergou's head, and then was whipped away by the obstacle Zen Master Dahui in the middle with a single whip; a thick sandalwood beam hit Ergou's shoulder, but was hit by the old monk who was in the way. The fist smashed open; then the tumbling sandalwood beam knocked over a young monk and two brave warriors. The tail suddenly rebounded, but was knocked out again by the old monk...

During the entire duration of the curse of misfortune, Ergou witnessed the old monk's invincible attitude to stop at least seven waves of tile attacks, three blows from thick beams, and one from the pillars, but they were all defeated by the magical old monk. The attitudes of a hard bridge and a hard horse are resolved one by one.

Of course, only Ergou was the only one who really noticed the old monk's demeanor. The others were all suffering from the aftermath of the curse to varying degrees. Some had their heads broken and bleeding, while others had broken muscles and bones, and even some were directly hit by heavy beams and huge pillars. How can he have the time to pay attention to what others are doing when he is dying?

The entire "disaster" lasted no longer than a cup of tea. The beautiful Buddhist hall had already turned into a mess of ruins, with countless people lying in the ruins and wailing in pain.

Among all the people, only Ergou and Zen Master Dahui were unscathed.

These two dogs can only be regarded as a coincidence. They all rely on the "power" of Zen Master Dahui to protect them, which truly proves the proverb that "when the sky falls, the tall one will hold it up."

Although the sky did not fall, the Buddhist hall did.

However, the old monk managed to escape completely by relying on his true ability. What made him feel most depressed and frightened was that those bricks, tiles and wooden beams seemed to be deliberately trying to get in the way of the old monk. Almost most of the injuries were caused by running. As he went, only a few aftermaths would affect others, even those unlucky ones who were seriously injured or even died, but these were secondary injuries caused by the bricks and beams lined up by the old monk.

In other words, at least half of the blame for the innocent deaths must be shouldered by Zen Master Dahui. As for the other half, the owner of the blame is naturally Ergou, the source of the disaster.

Ergou took a deep look at the old monk's side, then took a few steps back, casually patted the slightly dusty clothes a few times, and said: "Something happened, but the earth dragon turned over (another name for earthquake in the old days)" Is it done?"

The old monk looked back at the two dogs who were unharmed, but was greatly shocked in his heart. He said: "It's not that the earth dragon turned over, but that the Buddha was angry and collapsed the temple! Little donor Chen suffered this disaster but was unscathed. , It’s really good luck, it’s rare! It’s rare!”

Ergou pretended to be humble and waved his hands: "The elder is so complimentary! I was scared to death just now, and I was almost beaten to death several times!"

Then Ergou shouted to the people around him: "Brother Yang Wen! Where is brother Yang Wen?"

Just as he finished speaking, Yang Wen stood up from the ruins with two big bags on his forehead.

He let go of his arms covering the back of his head and said, "How is brother Chen? This broken Buddhist hall will collapse sooner or later, but it will collapse when we get here. It will kill our grandfathers!"

Ergou said: "I'm lucky, I didn't get hurt at all, I only got a few shocks. You can count the people and rescue the wounded, but anyone who is injured can be sent to me for treatment!"

Yang Wen looked at the wailing soldiers and monks all over the ground sadly, and said, "Everyone is going to be hit hard this time. Even if you have some tricks, Brother Chen, I'm afraid you won't be able to save many of them!"

Ergou stretched out his hands and placed them on Yang Wen's forehead. He only used some spiritual power, but Yang Wen only felt a warm current pouring into the injured area, and then he seemed to be back to normal before the injury.

He subconsciously touched his forehead with his hand, and sure enough, all the previous swellings were gone.

Yang Wen was overjoyed and said: "Brother, you have such a method, it is really unexpected! So many soldiers can be saved!"

Only Yang Wen counted the men. Five of the thirty capable soldiers were killed, three were seriously injured, and the other twenty were slightly injured. Two of the eight monks died, two were seriously injured, and the remaining four were considered lightly injured.

Regardless of the dead, the slightly injured people basically recovered as before under Ergou's treatment. However, Ergou spared a little effort for the seriously injured person. He only connected his muscles and bones and eliminated the bruises and swelling, but he was not completely cured. Injury.

In order to take care of the wounded, Ergou, Yang Wen and their soldiers stayed in Panlong Temple temporarily.

Of course, while taking care of the wounded, they also had to help the monks clean up the ruins of the Buddhist temple.

Zen Master Dahui had excellent senses about Ergou, especially when he saw Ergou heal the injuries of soldiers and monks with his spiritual power, he respected him even more.

Psionic power is a very idealistic power. The attributes of psionic power reflect the spiritual characteristics of the psyker. For example, a psyker with a thunder attribute is paranoid about justice, while a psyker with a healing attribute must have compassion. God's compassionate heart to save people.

Ergou's spiritual power can heal injuries, which undoubtedly shows that Ergou is a true "good man".

After all the injured were dealt with, Zen Master Dahui and Ergou said, "You are such a talented person. It is really rare in the world! If the brothers and sisters in the family know that you are such a person, they will definitely be overjoyed. If I have time, little brother, You can come to my home as a guest later!”

Ergou asked curiously: "Isn't this Panlong Temple the elder's home?"

The old monk shook his head and said: "This is the dojo where I live, but it is not the home where my soul resides."

Ergou smiled and said, "But I wonder where the elder's home is?"

The old monk also smiled and said: "Twenty years ago, I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Su Shi and heard him write a poem. Viewed horizontally, there are ridges and peaks on the side. Mountains are always different when viewed from a distance.

I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because I am in this mountain. Although this poem was written by Mr. Dongpo in Lushan Mountain, the use of it here at this time perfectly reminds me of the location of my home. Brother Chen, my home is in this plum ridge. If you want to reach my home, you have to break through the confusion and see the true path! Hahaha--"

Ergou sighed and said, "The elder said this, I'm afraid your home is a little unusual!"

The old monk held up his palms and said with a smile: "My little brother is indeed an enlightened person, and he is no different from other ordinary people! But he and other stupid people will never find the location of my home even if they waste hundreds of times more manpower and material resources." !”

Ergou frowned and said, "Elder Mahamati, I'm afraid there's something wrong with you belittling others like this! It should be noted that a colony of ants can eat an elephant, and a pack of wolves can chase away a hungry tiger. No matter how powerful one person is, how can he defeat a thousand Hundreds of people work together. As I expected, the elder should have some involvement with Duke Shen Yang!"

The old monk laughed so hard that he couldn't see anything at all, and said happily: "This is your unreasonable guess, of course I won't recognize it! But I really love this little brother's talents and thoughts! To tell you the truth, there are four brothers and sisters in my family. , the three eldest boys are just fine. There is only one younger sister who has always been arrogant and refused to lower her eyebrows, so she has not been married yet. With such a handsome and talented young man, maybe I can impress my younger sister, so that she can win over her. You won’t have to live alone in the future.”

Ergou said: "The elder's words are inappropriate. As old as the elder, my sister is only a few years older. And I am only a teenager. How can we be a good match? Besides, I have a fiancée of my own. Concubine, I ordered my hair long ago, how could I change my mind to your little sister instead!"

The elder laughed and said: "My brothers and sisters are all long-lived, and we can easily live for a thousand years. It seems that mortals like you can't live longer than a hundred years, so my sister recruited you as her son-in-law. I'm afraid that by then the same person will be old and buried." You! How dare you judge someone based on their age?

As for your wife and concubines, it's easy to deal with them. I have a brother who is always good at stealing beauty and jade. If he takes action, I can wait for a good place with her. "

Ergou smiled and shouted: "What a monk! The loss of many beautiful women in Meiling has nothing to do with you monks! Haha, you are just asking for it! Let's take care of those lost women. Tell me where you are going! But if you have to hide even a few words, you won’t be able to do it easily!”

The elder said: "This incident was caused by my brother and has nothing to do with the monks! Don't make false accusations against good people!"

Ergou laughed and said: "You are all the same kind of raccoons, how can you say that you are a good person! Please tell us the whereabouts of your brothers, otherwise the monks on the mountain will be taken and punished as thieves!"

The old monk was furious. There were eight Buddhist temples on Meiling Mountain with hundreds of monks. If Ergou was allowed to slander them like this, all the Buddhist monks on the mountain would be in great misfortune.

Don't look at the Zhennan Rebels as if they were an army of justice, but how many of the people who raised their troops to rebel like this are really good people? It's just that fewer innocent people are killed by the knife.

The old monk was so anxious that he reached out to catch the two dogs. He never thought that the two dogs would move away as if they were under their feet. No matter how eager the old monk was, he could not catch him.

The old monk was so anxious that he took out a long tube from his hand and poked the two dogs.

Ergou saw the shape of his long barrel and immediately felt the danger, but he also threw out the Liquan gun and hit the long barrel one by one. It felt like a cricket shaking a tree, but it did not shake the posture of the old monk's hand at all. .

However, with just this stirring, the two dogs used their strength to dodge away.

Then a ray of light was seen shooting out from the long tube held by the old monk, grazing the sides of the two dogs and hitting a surprised soldier not far away.

The soldier immediately became as stiff as a stone sculpture and fell to the ground while maintaining a fixed posture.

Ergou yelled angrily: "You bald donkey has no martial ethics! We all fight, but you use such a magical weapon for fun, it's just too much!"

The old monk held the long barrel with a smile and fired rays of light at the two dogs. Although he kept shooting in strokes, the two dogs were not injured at all. However, Yang Wen, who had been attracted by the surroundings, was in trouble as soon as he started to attack the soldiers. .

Many people were accidentally injured by the brilliance, and then their bodies became as stiff as sculptures. Some fell directly, while others stood motionless.

Even Yang Wen was struck by the brilliance. At that moment, his whole body was so stiff that he couldn't move at all. He couldn't even speak. He could only look at Er Gou and the old monk anxiously.

Facing the old monk's pursuit, Ergou didn't fight back, but it was a pity that the old monk was really powerful, not only powerful. When Ergou stabbed him with the Liquan Spear, it felt like he was being stabbed on an anvil. Apart from piercing the old monk's robe, he was unable to injure his body at all.

Straight bitch! The body of King Kong is invulnerable!

What's wrong with this monk!

Ergou saw that there was nothing he could do against the old monk with only cold weapons, but he took out a pill of Thunderbolt Fire Pill the size of a pigeon egg from his pocket, and while the old monk was talking, he flicked it into his mouth.

The old monk was having fun chasing the two dogs when he suddenly felt a foreign object entering his mouth. He subconsciously spat it out.

As soon as the pill came out of his mouth, it exploded, and the violent impact hit the old monk's mouth and face.

Don't look at the old monk's outer skin, which is as tough as steel, but the inside of his mouth is still ordinary flesh and blood. Although the toughness is several times stronger than that of serious human flesh and blood, it is like the difference between ordinary tender meat and old cowhide, but the surface The shock wave of the explosion is also treated equally.

The old monk wailed in pain, and then vomited blood and saliva. The long tube in his hand had no time to continue to attack the two dogs.

Especially when Ergou saw that the attack was effective, he continued to bombard the old monk's face with the Thunderbolt Fire Pill. Even if the old monk closed his mouth tightly, the shock wave of the explosion still hit his face.

The old monk was so forced that he threw away the long tube in his hand, covered his face with his hands, turned around and ran away.

The two dogs chased the old monk and continued to bombard him until they drove him out of Panlong Temple.

He returned to the earlier battlefield and found the long tube that the old monk had thrown away. Upon closer inspection, it looked like a dark gray stick with a texture that looked like jade but not jade, and that looked like bone but not bone. The whole thing was completely integrated, and its surface looked like It is naturally endowed with many complex and gorgeous texture lines, and has a unique rhythmic beauty.

Don't look at the thickness of the cup mouth and the length of this thing. It is as light as a feather in your hand.

Ergou tried the stick. It was used as a lever to move several thousand kilograms of weight, but it did not bend at all.

When Ergou injected spiritual energy into the stick, the object instantly became countless times heavier. With just one stick, it could smash a rockery weighing dozens of tons to pieces.

But when Ergou chooses to shoot his psychic energy through the stick, he can shoot out many different effects of brilliance. There are paralysis rays that can make people stiff and paralyzed, hot melt rays that are enough to melt gold and iron, and some that can only ablate the flesh. Biocorrosive rays, etc.

Of course, these are just some of the functions of the stick that Ergou figured out on his own based on the amount of psychic energy injected into it, not all of its functions. He also cannot be like when he played games in his previous life, only needing an identification skill to use this stick. The function is fully understood.

However, the few functions that the two dogs could find out already proved the preciousness of the thing discarded by the old monk.

Ergou unceremoniously added it to his arsenal and named it "Ruyi Stick".

The soldiers who had been accidentally injured by the old monk had been stunned in place for six hours, but they finally regained their ability to move tremblingly.

However, almost everyone's first action when regaining mobility is to hurriedly remove their pants and clean their bladder.

It's a pity that the long-term stiffness made most of them unable to control their hands and feet. Except for the two lucky ones who untied their belts in time, most of the remaining unlucky ones couldn't help but add hot urine to their pants. render.

Unfortunately, Yang Wen was not among the two lucky ones. He moved his wet legs and approached Er Gou with an embarrassed look on his face, but said: "I have seen that old monk many times, but I never noticed it. He is the culprit! Brother Ergou really knew everything and found out the origins of Duke Shen Yang in one go, but it was a pity that the old monk escaped!"

Ergou wrinkled his nose, but said with a look of disgust: "Brother Yang, please don't come near me! I have some mysophobia!"

Then he added: "That guy is not Duke Shen Yang, I guess he is the brother of Duke Shen Yang. Brother Yang, don't worry, he can't run away!"

Yang Wen said: "Do you want me to go back and mobilize the army to round up that guy?"

Ergou shook his head and said: "There is still no trace of the abducted women. Mobilizing the army is nothing more than alerting the enemy. It is not what a wise man would do! Wait for now, I will deal with it later. I think you should go and wash yourself now. It’s better to change your clothes for a moment!”

Yang Wen rubbed his hands excitedly, but found a place to change.

But it was said that the old monk covered his head and ran around in the forest, but not long after, when he came to a temple, he broke into it and found a landscape mural. He plunged his head into it and Xumi disappeared.

Only the ethereal and illusory mural is left. The mountain scenery depicted in this mural is not any mountains and rivers in reality. Only the words "Meiling in Dreams" are written on the inscription of the mural.
