Chapter 28 Two or three past events (4)
After a while, Monk Yu asked, "Lu Jian, what do you think after hearing this story?" Lu Jian thought for a while and said, "This Mr. Siqin's actions are very strange and incomprehensible. For example, Why would he burn his whole life and still clap his hands and laugh?"

Monk Yu said: "This clapping and laughing is ten times more desperate than that crying. When Mr. Siqin realized that the way of 'suppressing Confucianism and restricting imperial power' that he insisted on, he could not implement it in this world after all. The wisdom of the unity of the Dao is not only difficult to promote, but will become a tool for the emperor's sole husband. It is better to destroy it in the fire than to harm the world. Although he smiled in his mouth, the pain in his heart is rarely known, so when he died, he shouted, "It's a pity for future generations." The person who is so good will never know me again' This sentence is his heartfelt voice."

After hearing this, Lu Jian still didn't quite understand. He wanted to ask again, but suddenly there was a warning sign, and he stretched out his hand to hold a green bamboo. Several people leaned on the bamboo, moving from far to near, erratic.

Lu Jian thought for a while, swung his knife and chopped off a few bamboo branches, cut them into bamboo arrows, and threw them towards the hiding place of one person. After only twenty steps, the bamboo arrows fell to the ground with a bang.

Monk Yu guessed what he was thinking, and said, "Try using 'my appearance'." Lu Jian took another bamboo arrow, twisted his body according to "my appearance", and threw it vigorously.

There was a sharp sound, and the bamboo arrows flew away like a shock. After a flash in the forest, a scream was heard, and a man fell from the green bamboo. He was covered in black, his limbs were twisted, and the nock of the bamboo arrow was clearly visible on his forehead.

Lu Jian originally just wanted to scare the people who came, but he shot one of them to death. He was stunned for a moment, hearing the rustling of the bamboo forest, and the rest of the ninjas were frightened by the bamboo arrows, and fled away in a blink of an eye.

Monk Yu was also very surprised, and murmured: "This is an accident, and the monk didn't expect it." Lu Jian killed three people in a row, feeling extremely unhappy, and after a while, he chose a thick bamboo and held it up. Knife chopping.

Monk Yu asked curiously, "What are you doing?" Lu Jian said, "Grandpa said that every big river must lead to the sea. I'll build a bamboo raft first, and at night, we will quietly sail along the water and reach the beach. Those ninjas must have never expected it." .”

Monk Yu nodded silently, thinking about the crisis at every step on the land, if he changed to the waterway, it would have unexpected effects.Seeing that the bamboo pole was thick and tough, Lu Jian was struggling to cut it down, so he said, "You use the 'Shou Zhe Xiang' to strike, the knife reaches the bamboo body, and then change to the 'Monkey King'."

Lu Jian used it in accordance with the law, and cutting the bamboo was like mowing grass in the direction of the blade. It became very easy, but his body twisted and twisted, which felt very strange.

Monk Yu nodded and said: "When you first practice '32 Phrases', you must use the phases to stimulate strength. After practicing for a long time in the future, the phases will be completely eliminated, and only the spirit will remain. When the spirit moves, the strength will be self-generated, even if you sit upright. Can hurt."

Lu Jian chopped more than a dozen big bamboos, cut off the branches, broke one of them, cut it into strips, and twisted the bamboo ropes.Monk Yu taught him to tie the ropes with the "figures of the heavens" and bind the bamboo raft with the "figures of the many-headed snake", and it really got twice the result with half the effort.From time to time, Lu Jian felt the movement around him. All the ninjas were expected to lose their soldiers and generals, and no one came for a while.

At night, Lu Jian dragged the bamboo raft into the water, and the monk Fuyu sat on the bow of the raft and went down the river with his pole.

At that time, the stars and the moon were dark, the sound of the water was like a man whimpering, and the precipices and dangerous rocks on both sides of the bank outlined slender and vague shadows on the horizon, some like a thirsty horse galloping, or like a lion and a hungry tiger.

Lu Jian's heart was always hanging, afraid that with a "crash", someone would come out of the water again.Fortunately, there was no movement in the middle of the night. Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, I was convinced that the plan was successful, so I sat down and was about to take a nap when Monk Yu suddenly coughed and shouted in Japanese: "Lu Jian, do you know that the ninja Killing people is very learned, if you are not sure about killing, you will never take it lightly. Now the danger has just begun, so you must not be careless."

Lu Jianteng stood up and asked in a hurry: "Is there an enemy?" Monk Yu raised his voice, "The gist of ninjutsu is only in the eight characters: 'Surprise by surprise, attack by surprise.' How and when he strikes is up to you. It is not wise to catch it. As for the timing, it must be when you are most defenseless. And the time when ordinary people are most negligent is just at dawn."

Before the words were finished, there was a low howl from the left bank, and several black shadows suddenly rose up and disappeared like light smoke.Lu Jian broke out in cold sweat unconsciously. He thought he had a plan, but unexpectedly, the group of ninjas had already followed him. He expected to do it at dawn, but Monk Yu told him right away.

Lu Jian cheered up and supported the bamboo raft with all his strength, making it hard for four horses to catch up. Suddenly, Monk Yu sighed, "Sit down, I have something to say." Lu Jian had no choice but to put aside the penny and sit down.

Monk Yu said: "There is no danger now, let's talk about the fourth story. This story is about the monk himself." Lu Jian regained his energy and listened attentively.

When Monk Yu was silent for a while, he said quietly: "Monk, I belong to the Zen sect. I send people to travel all over the world, never open the mountain gates, and do not belong to the five Zen sects of Linji, Yunmen, Weiyang, Caodong, and Fayan. They are self-contained. One faction, be at ease."

"Since Patriarch Jiuru opened the sect and Master Peanut flourished, there have been six generations in the past 300 years. Each generation is a master and an apprentice, and it is passed on from a single source. Why is this so? It is only because of the 'Great King Kong Divine Power' after training , to be like a powerful bodhisattva who transcends the three realms, if the teaching is not human, it will inevitably cause boundless crimes. By the generation of monks, the general situation of martial arts has undergone drastic changes.

"I think in the past, after Mr. Siqin passed away, he was married and had no children. Therefore, according to the law of Mr. Xicheng, the lord of Xicheng was elected by the eight ministries and changed every ten years, and they took turns to lead Xicheng..."

Lu Jianqi asked, "Why does Mr. Siqin have no children?" Monk Yu said, "This matter is quite strange, maybe because he hated the bad habits passed down from father to son and intended not to marry for life. But after Dong Dao's defeat, he always held a grudge , Mr. Siqin is still alive, they are nothing. Once Mr. left, they attacked the west city. Although Mr. Siqin divided the "Zhouliu Liuxugong" into eight, it is still no small matter. After several battles, the East Island did not Taking advantage. But once this dispute started, the East Island and West City fought for more than 200 years. In order to win, they did everything they could. 100 years ago, West City got the "Book of Black Sky" from nowhere, in order to fight against East Island , even in disregard of the laws of nature, and started raising Jie slaves..."

Lu Jian exclaimed in surprise: "I started keeping slaves a hundred years ago. Didn't there have been many robbers?" Monk Yu nodded silently and sighed softly: "After years of fighting, whether it's East Island or West City, there have been heavy casualties. The hatred from generation to generation has grown deeper and deeper. Unexpectedly, 40 years ago, in the west city, there was a Tianbu disciple named Wan Guizang. Because of his extraordinary talent, he was discovered by chance. The mystery of "Liu Xugong", thus penetrating the eight unique learnings, flowing through the six emptinesses, and applying all things, has reached the realm of Mr. Siqin. But not only his understanding is extraordinary, but his ambition is even more extraordinary. First, he killed the publicly elected city lord Zuo Mengchen , Forcibly ascended to the position of the city lord, and then attacked the East Island with all his strength. The disciples of the East Island were almost wiped out, and the survivors fled overseas."

"Although the monk is an outsider, he can't see it. After all, the East Island and West City were originally a family 300 years ago. It is unreasonable to kill them all like this. So we asked Wan Guizang to meet at Tianzhu Mountain and tried to persuade him to stop."

Lu Jian worried: "This man is so cruel and vicious, wouldn't it be dangerous for Master to see him?" Monk Yu sighed, "Before I met City Lord Wan, Monk thought he must be arrogant, fierce and violent. Seriously I saw it, but it was absurdly wrong. This Wan Guizang is not only unrestrained and unrestrained like a god, but also has an extraordinary demeanor, and is also highly intelligent and insightful. When you get along with him, it is like tasting a millennium of wine, and you will get drunk without drinking. Heartbroken, we talked very happily. It can also be said that the monk has not yet fought, and he has already lost to him in terms of demeanor."

"Speaking of the joy, the monk advised him to let go of the remnants of the East Island, but he was flatly rejected. After a long time of persuasion, it was inevitable to go to war. However, the 'Zhou Liu Liu Xugong' has broken the way of heaven, and the monk tried his best, but he could only accept it. The next three moves. From then on, not only is there only half of the skill left, but the injury has never been healed."

Lu Jian was shocked: "Master's old injury was actually caused by Wan Guicang? Master's power is halved now, but he is still so powerful. When he was in his prime, he didn't know what it was! Even so, he only received three wounds. Trick, I really don't know what kind of character Wan Guizang is?"

While thinking about it, he suddenly heard Monk Yu sigh: "Since the monk was defeated, he naturally waited to die, but unexpectedly Wan Guizang said: "You and I are two schools, and the relationship is very deep. Vajra is a school, and it is a single lineage. You little The disciple's magic power failed, the Dao brother died, the incense of the peanut master was cut off, and the younger brother Jiuquan had no face to face the patriarch of the sect. Dongdao is not the case. He has been fighting with our sect for more than 200 years, and the hatred is as deep as the sea. Therefore, the only way to stop killing is to kill. If Daoist brother can't see it, you can stay away from the middle land. Either you have supernatural powers, and you have the ability to surpass the younger brother. Otherwise, please don't come back in the rest of your life.'"

"He said it politely, but in fact he exiled the monk. But with his method of cutting grass and roots, he was able to let the monk survive. It is indeed a glimpse of the friendship between Master Peanut and his ancestor. It shows that even though this person is a generation of heroes, he is not ruthless. man of."

Seeing that Monk Yu was seriously injured and exiled by Wan Guizang, Lu Jian still excused him everywhere in his words, and felt puzzled for a moment.

But Monk Yu sighed: "Hearing this, the monk had nothing to say, so he took his young disciples and crossed the sea to Dongying. When they arrived, they found that this small country was raging with war and in troubled times. That's all. I never thought that the Buddhism in Dongying was in troubled times, and it was depraved. The monks did not practice, but relied on the large number of believers, arrogant and promiscuous, marrying concubines and having children, raising children for prostitution, and even robbing people's land and extorting money. Buddhism is originally a way to save the world , when it came here, it turned out to be a tool used by traitors to fool the world and seek personal gain."

"The monk witnessed all kinds of crimes and couldn't bear it. He went to Mount Hiei with his disciples and reasoned with the monks in Dongying. Mount Hiei is known as the Buddhist king's city in Dongying, and many so-called eminent monks lived there. The monk debated Buddhism with the monks on Mount Hiei. The debate lasted for three days and three nights. Those monks were addicted to pleasure, and the Dharma was superficial. How could they be the master of the monks? When they were at a loss for words, they became furious and declared the monks 'Buddha's enemy', and sent monks to hunt them down."

"Since the matter has come to this point, although the monk doesn't mind it, there has been a great change in the heart of the little disciple. He was originally pure in heart and strong in nature, but his fault is that he admires force too much. Seeing the monk's defeat by Wan Guizang, he has no understanding of Buddhism. He was greatly shaken. When he arrived in Dongying, the cruel and murderous nature of the Japanese hit it off with his admiration for martial arts. When he saw the monks in Dongying indulge in pleasure, he was not only not ashamed, but secretly envious."

"That year, my master and apprentice were chased and killed by the monks of the Yixiang sect. When they fled to Beiyishi, the monk suffered from old injuries and was unable to escape. He was blocked by the monks by the Kiso River. The nine-foot-long sword of "Japan's No. [-] Great Sword" flaunts its power and regards my master and apprentice as fish on an anvil. I can't be humiliated by him in every possible way, and finally I can't bear it anymore. Then, regardless of the monk's warning, he rushed into the formation. In that battle, he became so demonic that he killed more than a thousand monks and soldiers, and even the Kiso River was dyed red. Afterwards, he took the sword and left, calling himself The Qianshenzong is rampant in Japan, doing all kinds of evil."

"When the monk recovered from his injuries, he went to look for him. The evil barrier knew that he was no match for the monk, so he hid everywhere, and even for ten years, he did not dare to do evil openly. The hateful thing is that after Northern Ise, Mount Hiei Although they didn’t send monk soldiers, they bought off the ninjas in Iga and offered huge rewards to assassinate the monks. These ninjas have strange techniques and great endurance. They have been relentless for more than ten years. I have been in danger several times, and I have restrained them many times , but in the end they could not bear to kill. Who would have thought that they knew that the monk did not violate the precept of killing, and became more unscrupulous.

Speaking of this, Monk Yu's blood surged up, he coughed a few times, and panted, "Lu Jian, you have to understand that force is not the way to rely on for a long time, and those who use force will die by force. This is the case with Wan Guizang, but it cannot be the same. These Even though ninjas are hateful, they are all born of their parents and raised by heaven and earth. When you fight against them again, you must be merciful, and you must not imitate them, because a moment of anger will lead you to the path of invincibility."

While Monk Yu was speaking, Lu Jian suddenly felt that he was pressing his hand on the top of his head. In an instant, a huge heat flow rushed down. Lu Jian couldn't cry out in time, and there was a rumble in his head, and he suddenly lost consciousness.
