Everything starts from Tian Long Ba Bu

Chapter 289 Return to Shaolin
At the foot of Shaoshi Mountain, a man in white suddenly appeared here.

This person was none other than Murong Fu, who had bid farewell to Lingjiu Palace not long ago.

Murong Fu should have arrived at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain two days ago, but he was delayed for a few days because he happened to meet Wu Laoda and his party holding the so-called "Ten Thousand Immortals Conference" on the way.

Knowing that their group was secretly plotting to deal with the Lingjiu Palace, Murong Fu naturally could not sit idly by, so he specially used thunderous means to kill Wu Laoda and Zhuo Yifan.

Without the strong support of Zhuo Bufan, Taoist Buping, and Fairy Furong, the remaining members of the thirty-sixth hole and the seventy-second path are naturally not enough to worry about.

However, just in case, Murong Fu still took action to kill some of the notorious guys.

Although the members of Thirty-six Cave and Seventy-two Islands are not all heinous people, some of them, such as the Shennong Gang, the Two Monsters of Zhuya, and other weirdos, use even worse methods against ordinary people than the Xingxiu Sect.

As for the others, Murong Fu only punished them slightly or let them go.

After all, these people still need Child Lao's life and death talisman. Based on this experience and their own martial arts, even if they have other ideas in their hearts, they have not been able to make waves in the past ten years.

And more than ten years after ascending the throne, even if Murong Fu did not interfere in this matter.

After he succeeded to the throne, Master Xuanji, in order to maintain the reputation of the temple and Brother Xuanci, and also had the idea of ​​​​rectifying the sect rules of the temple, so he chose to close the temple for three years after he succeeded to the position of abbot. Year.

Tong Lao and Wu Yazi who were stationed at Lingjiu Palace alone could annihilate them all, not to mention the eight friends of Han Gu and others who stayed at Piaomiao Peak.

Master Xuanji saw the guest monk suddenly appearing in front of him and said unexpectedly: "Didn't I tell you that within three years, this temple will not receive any visitors?"

Moreover, although Senior Brother Xuanci did not explain the details in detail that day, Xuanji and others understood that the Shaolin Temple owed them a huge favor in this matter.

However, Master Xuanci decided to tell all these crimes and was willing to be punished.

……

Before senior brother Xuanci abdicated, he had revealed these things in front of all his brothers. Only "Nan Murong" and "Bei Qiao Feng" knew about these things in the world.

It turns out that during this year, "Beiqiao Feng" who was originally the leader of the Beggars' Gang, followed the example of Brother Xuanci and took the initiative to step down and handed over the position of leader of the Beggars' Gang to the deputy leader Ma Dayuan.

I saw a young man in white standing outside the mountain gate. He had a light robe and a long waist. He was definitely not a dandy.

Even if he is a disciple of the Beggar Clan, it is extremely difficult to see him in person unless there is something important.

One can imagine how powerful Mr. Murong’s martial arts is.

Just because Senior Brother Xuanci warned him before he abdicated that Master Murong's martial arts was already the best in the world, and even he was far behind!

Outside the mountain gate of Shaolin Temple, Master Xuanji personally went out to greet him.

Xuanji then slowly stepped forward to greet him, and said slowly: "Old monk Xuanji has seen Nan Murong!"

Hearing the reproach from Master Xuanji, Zhike Monk quickly replied.

As for him, he lives in seclusion outside Yanmen Pass. In recent years, few people have seen him in the world.

When Murong Fu saw this, he bowed in return.

But Murong Fu, who came to visit today, knows all this best.

"Today I came uninvited, but actually I have something important to ask for help from Master!"

Therefore, he could avoid seeing other people, but he had to go out to greet Mr. Murong in person.

"Reporting to the abbot, it's Mr. Murong who is visiting!"

It can be said that no one in the temple knows about this matter, but the Zhike monk who is responsible for receiving visitors on weekdays knows it?

After Master Xuanji became the presiding officer of Shaolin, during this year, the Shaolin Temple rarely participated in major affairs in the world. Except for the secular disciples under the sect, the rest of the disciples in the temple were strictly prohibited from going out at will.

Shaolin Temple, Main Hall.

Since Master Xuanci voluntarily abdicated the throne in favor of a more talented person, the abbot of the Shaolin Temple has been Master Xuanci’s junior brother, Master Xuanji, who was originally in charge of the Discipline Academy and Nagarjuna Academy.

All this naturally makes people in the world puzzled. They don't understand why the rules of Shaolin Temple suddenly become so strict!

In front of Xuan Ji, Murong Fu directly stated his purpose of coming without any concealment.

The only exception is that the business of "Fuwei Escort Bureau" is getting bigger and bigger. Now even the Western Region has a branch of their escort agency, and its power has surpassed that of the Beggar Gang.

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji couldn't help but change his expression.

If it were just for the Jianghu forces, it would not be worthy of Master Xuanji's change of attitude.

"Is it important?"

……

Why Master Xuanci took the initiative to abdicate was naturally all because of his affair with Ye Erniang, even though Murong Fu had promised him that he would never mention this matter in the world.

Murong Fu may not be able to guarantee that he will be able to save others by himself.

Behind all this, it is naturally to maintain the reputation of Shaolin Temple.

After all, once this matter is leaked, Shaolin's thousand-year reputation will be destroyed.

It should be noted that Senior Brother Xuanci's qualifications are still above him. He is the first person to master the "Great Vajra Palm" in this temple in two hundred years. However, this Young Master Murong can make him say such words.

"Master Murong?"

"Master Xuanji, you're welcome!"

And "Nan Murong" has also been living in seclusion this year. Not only him, but also the four village owners under the Murong family rarely appear in front of outsiders during this year.

Ever since Senior Brother Xuanci took the initiative to reveal to him the sexual precepts he had committed in his early years in front of all his brothers, as well as his credulity in other people's words, which led to the wrongful killing of good people, and he took the blame and abdicated the throne.

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji pondered for a moment, then clasped his hands together and said, "In that case, please invite Mr. Murong to come to the temple for a talk!"

Without taking a cup of tea, Murong Fu followed Master Xuanji to the outside of the Main Hall.

After entering the main hall, Murong Fu saw no one else in the hall. Compared with the first time he visited Shaolin, this time it seemed that Master Xuanji obviously did not want more people to know about this matter.

Seeing this, Murong Fu knew that Master Xuanji had misunderstood something, so he said directly: "Master Xuanji, I visited your temple today for no other reason than to seek help from your temple!"

As he spoke, Murong Fu revealed his withered right hand under his robe.

"This……"

Seeing this scene, Master Xuanji couldn't help but change his color in horror.

People who practice martial arts will naturally inevitably fight in daily battles, but even if they are seriously injured and die, they will die in the same way.

The injury to Murong Fu's right hand was beyond his imagination. A few years ago, the "Xingxiu Sect" had the most bad reputation in the Central Plains, but even Ding Chunqiu's "Transformation Technique" was determined not to create such a scene.

Xuanji's cultivation level was only inferior to Xuanci among the eminent monks of the Xuan generation in Shaolin, so he could naturally tell that the injury on Murong Fu's right hand was not caused by poison.

Xuanji said: "In the opinion of the old monk, Master Murong's right hand injury was caused by an extremely domineering martial arts that seemed to have absorbed the vitality of the right hand. However, the old monk is ignorant and has never seen such a domineering martial arts!"

Murong Fu sighed: "Master Xuanji, you are right. This person is unknown in the world, but he is the most difficult person I have ever encountered in my life."

Hearing this, Xuanji clasped his hands together and sighed: "The rivers and lakes are so vast, there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons!"

Speaking of which, it was not difficult for Xuanji to guess Murong Fu's intention. It was just that Shaolin's seventy-two stunts were famous all over the world, but in the eyes of various sects, the medical skills of Shaolin Temple were more important.

As the saying goes, a long-term illness makes a doctor, and the Shaolin Temple has been passed down for thousands of years, focusing on studying martial arts, so natural medicine has been the deepest in the journey.

Regardless of internal or external injuries, it is extremely rare for them to be admitted to the Shaolin Temple.

But Master Xuanji had never seen Murong Fu's injury today, so he didn't dare to make a promise for a while.

Murong Fu said: "To be honest, I came to your temple today for two things!"

Xuanji said: "Mr. Murong, please speak frankly!"

Murong Fu said: "First of all, I want to borrow the Yijin Sutra, the treasure of your temple, to have a look at it. It is said that this thing was left by Bodhidharma, the founder of your temple, and it contains infinite mysteries!"

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji's eyes showed strange color.

It should be noted that he naturally knew the name of the "Yi Jin Jing".

It turns out that the "Yi Jin Jing" is actually the supreme treasure book in martial arts, but the method of practice is very difficult, and it is necessary to explore the "self-image and human-image".

There is no thought of practicing martial arts in my heart. However, monks who practice this superior martial arts must be brave and diligent in order to achieve success. Who doesn't want to benefit from practice as soon as possible?
It is really difficult to have "nothing to live in". In the past hundreds of years, there have been many eminent monks practicing the "Yi Jin Jing" in the Shaolin Temple. However, after years of hard work, they often gained nothing. Therefore, the monks thought that this sutra had no efficacious effect, so the original work was written by A on that day. Zhu stole it, and although the eminent monks in the temple were angry, they didn't take it as a big deal.

Hearing that Murong Fu actually wanted to use the "Yi Jin Jing" to gain insights, Master Xuanji couldn't help but frown slightly and wanted to explain.

But before he could speak, Murong Fu continued: "Secondly, I would like to ask the master to come forward and introduce me to a senior from your temple!"

"senior?"

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji couldn't help but look surprised.

"I heard from the elders of the sect that there is an anonymous senior in the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion of your temple. His knowledge of martial arts is so high that he can be called the best in the world, so I am bold enough to ask the master to recommend him!"

Understanding Xuan Ji's confusion, Murong Fu quickly explained slowly.

The person Murong Fu mentioned was naturally the number one person in the world of Tianlong, the sweeping monk who lived incognito in the Sutra Pavilion.

No matter the so-called Four Wonders of Tianlong, or the Three Elders of Xiaoyao, "South Murong" and "Beiqiao Peak", none of them can match the demeanor of this unknown monk in the original work.

In the original work, he once lifted Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo with one hand and ran away, even Qiao Feng couldn't catch up.

Moreover, he resisted Qiao Feng's palm, but he only vomited blood and was injured. Then he gave Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo a massage as if nothing had happened, saving them from suspended animation.

With such a level of cultivation, throughout the world of Tianlong, almost no one can compare with him.

If there was no variable like Murong, and going back hundreds of years, perhaps only Murong Longcheng, the ancestor of the Murong family, Duan Siping, the ancestor of the Duan family of Dali, and Xiaoyaozi, the founder of the Xiaoyao sect, could compare.

"Mr. Murong, are you serious about this?"

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji couldn't help but look solemn.

It should be noted that the Sutra Pavilion is the most important place in the Shaolin Temple. It has always been the most heavily guarded place in the Shaolin Temple. Now, we learned from Murong Fu that there is an unknown senior in the Sutra Pavilion...

Moreover, as a senior monk of Shaolin Xuan generation, he had stayed in the temple for nearly a year, but he had never heard of any other early news in the temple.

Suddenly, it was natural to become vigilant.

……

Shaolin Temple, inside the Sutra Pavilion.

Under the leadership of Master Xuanji, Murong Fu once again stepped into the Sutra Pavilion.

The last time he stepped into the Sutra Pavilion was in the Shaolin Temple among the Condor Shooting.

"Mr. Murong, please clarify!"

Master Xuanji looked at the empty Sutra Pavilion and suddenly clasped his hands together.

If the incident with Senior Brother Xuanci hadn't proved Murong Fu's character in advance, Master Xuanji would have inevitably thought that Murong Fu had some idea about the Sutra Pavilion in their Shaolin Temple.

"Younger generation, Murong Fu is here to visit our seniors today, and please ask your seniors to show up!"

Seeing the suspicion in Master Xuanji's eyes, Murong Fu was not in a hurry and just raised his hand slightly.

Among them, Murong Fu naturally used the method of transmitting sound. Others only thought it sounded ordinary, and it could not even be transmitted outside the Sutra Pavilion. However, once the cultivation reached a certain level, people within a radius of one mile could hear it.

After a long time, I suddenly heard an old voice outside the long window saying: "Amitabha! I am just an unknown person, why did Mr. Murong take the trouble to come here!"

When Xuanji heard this, he couldn't help being shocked. How come he didn't realize there was someone outside the window?
And from the way this person spoke, it seemed like he had been outside the window for a long time...

Different from the surprise in Xuan Ji's eyes, Murong Fu looked indifferent and just bowed slightly and said: "Senior, please show up!"

Soon I saw a skinny monk wearing a green robe outside the venue holding a broom and sweeping the floor. This monk is quite young, and his long and sparse beards are all white. He moves slowly and has no strength, and he does not appear to have any martial arts skills.

Master Xuanji took the initiative and said, "May I ask how many years Master has been in the Sutra Pavilion?"

The old monk slowly raised his head and said, "The abbot asked me...how long...have I been staying here?"

The two of them stared at him together, and saw that his eyes were blank and lacked energy, but his voice was exactly the same accent as he had just answered Murong Fu.

Master Xuanji said: "Yes, I would like to ask how many years Master has been in the Sutra Pavilion?"

The old monk counted with his fingers. After a while, he shook his head, with an apologetic look on his face, and said: "I...I can't remember clearly. I don't know whether it was forty-two or forty-three years. At that time, this temple When Master Xuancheng came to see the scriptures for the first time, I... I had been here for more than ten years, and it has been more than forty years ago. "

"Senior Brother Xuancheng? More than forty years?"

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanji's expression changed slightly.

Master Xuan Cheng's martial arts cultivation was the best in the temple for two hundred years. However, due to his excessive diligence in practicing martial arts, the accumulated hostility was not channeled in time, which led to him becoming possessed and losing all his martial arts overnight. After that, he stopped practicing martial arts, devoted himself to Buddhism, and became a generation of eminent monks.

Moreover, this matter is a secret of the temple. Apart from them, the Xuanzi generation, only some junior disciples know about it, but today it was revealed by the unknown old monk in front of me.

Moreover, just as he said, when Brother Xuancheng first stepped into the Sutra Pavilion, he was only over thirty years old, but more than forty years had passed. All of this was verified one by one by the words of the unknown old monk in front of him. .
