Chapter 33 Master of Silence

Zhang Yuanshan pondered for a moment and said with a slight smile: "Junior brother Zhending is the disciple of my master's friend, nicknamed the 'Buddha Sword that cuts off karma'."

"The Karma-Cutting Buddha Sword..." Lin Bie Xue repeated in a low voice, and then said with a chuckle, "Master Zhending turned out to be a disciple of an expert outside the world."

Karma-cutting Buddha knife... Meng Qi's mouth twitched, he was not satisfied with the nickname Zhang Yuanshan gave himself. Am I willing to use the knife?

He picked up the tea cup with a smile, took a sip of the tea, and made an alert: "We are all in a sea of ​​misery, how can we talk about this world?"

At this time, Meng Qi felt extremely regretful as to why he was wearing tattered, blood-stained gray monk robes and failed to show off the elegance of an accomplished monk!

"Interesting, interesting!" Lin Bie Xue laughed, raised his glass and drank the liquor in his hand.

"Buddha knife?" Wei Wuji and others in the inn murmured to themselves, savoring this nickname that they had never heard before. However, since it was Mr. Zhang who said it, this Master Zhending seemed to be indeed extraordinary. He and others My knowledge is still a little shallow, and I don’t know much about things outside the Heluo Wulin.

Zhang Yuanshan looked back at Qi Zhengyan and others who were not approaching, and greeted Lin Bie Xue: "I have a visitor here, please forgive me, Brother Lin."

Lin Bie Xue waved her hand nonchalantly: "Lin has to go back to his room to meditate and adjust his breath. Doercha's masters will attack here at any time. We have to be on guard and keep our spirits up."

After saying goodbye to Lin Bie Xue, Zhang Yuanshan led Meng Qi and others to the third floor of the inn, and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhending, Junior Brother Qi, seeing that you are covered in blood and your clothes are in tatters, this trip must be difficult, but you can do it without any trouble." The death of one person is really shocking.”

"I haven't encountered any enemies in the awakening stage." Qi Zhengyan simply explained the reason.

"Well, maybe it's too late to catch up with you. I've inquired, and Doercha has four great innate masters, 'Zhenhe Luo' Guan Haoran, 'Various Scholar' Kuang Chengwang, 'White-browed Evil Wolf' Borhan, and 'The World in the Palm' Tang Shun, you must be careful about the remaining three." Zhang Yuanshan stopped in front of a door and knocked lightly.

"Come in." Jiang Zhiwei's voice came from the room like an oriole coming out of the valley.

Pushing open the door, Meng Qi saw Jiang Zhiwei sitting cross-legged and meditating, with the sword "White Rainbow Penetrating the Sun" unsheathed and lying across his knees, reflecting the sunlight, like a blue spring.

And the enchanting young woman was sitting at the table doing nothing, playing with the teacup in front of her.

"Young monk, you have had a wonderful life." Jiang Zhiwei returned the sword to its sheath and greeted with a smile, "I'm bored. I finally had an opponent, but I was snatched away by Senior Brother Zhang."

Since no one died, she was in a good mood and joked.

"Amitabha, I am a merciful Buddha. Even poor monks do not want to kill. However, killing is to protect living beings. Killing karma is not killing people. If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell?" Meng Qi made nonsense of some of the more elegant words he had heard before. .

"Haha, you are a talkative monk. What you said makes sense. I almost got fooled." Jiang Zhiwei said without concealing her smile. Zhang Yuanshan laughed and shook his head, obviously he had never heard of such nonsense.

Then, Jiang Zhiwei pointed at the enchanting young woman, "This lady is called Ke Bijun. She has a small skill in accumulating energy. She also put in a lot of effort when breaking through the interception."

Meng Qi nodded, said hello, turned around and introduced Xiao Zi and Xiang Hui, and finally asked: "Where is that one? Did he die in pursuit?"

"Hero Wang Jin is a master with open eyes. After arriving in Shaolin and completing the first main mission, he was not happy to hang out with us juniors. He was walking around to contact foreign aid." Zhang Yuanshan was not angry or annoyed. Answer calmly.

Meng Qi was quite concerned about the main mission: "Have you completed the first main mission? What is the second main mission?"

"We entered the temple last night to meet the abbot, completed the first main mission, and received rewards for good deeds. However, our origins are unclear. They did not dare to let us live in the temple, and they still sent us down the mountain, saying that after interrogating the traitors, we would not return. Let's discuss." Jiang Zhiwei briefly explained what happened yesterday, "The second main task is to stick to Shaolin until the last moment and complete the reward of 100 good deeds, otherwise it will be deducted."

After a pause, she continued: "You don't have to worry too much, they will definitely ask you to enter the temple to verify, so as not to be deceived by us."

After listening to Jiang Zhiwei's words, Meng Qi felt calm and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Zhang, do you have any extra clothes you can lend me? This outfit is really uncomfortable."

Zhang Yuanshan chuckled and said, "I have prepared clothes for you a long time ago. Junior Brother Zhending, Junior Brother Qi, and Brother Xiang Hui, follow me to the next door to take a shower and change clothes."

…………

After taking a shower, changing clothes, and feeling refreshed, Meng Qi and others came to Deguang and learned that Master Xinji, the abbot, would personally meet with him and others to inquire about the breakout and the traitor.

The mountain road is winding and green, and the scenery looks more and more familiar to Meng Qi as he walks.

Isn’t this the mountain road I usually take to carry water? Meng Qi suddenly woke up and turned to look at Jiang Zhiwei, Zhang Yuanshan and Qi Zhengyan, and received affirmative nods from them.

Could it be that this place is really the same as my own Shaolin, except for the people inside?

"Master Xinji is an expert at the pinnacle of the innate world. He is only one step away from entering the realm of 'immortality' where the inner and outer worlds meet. Don't be disrespectful." Zhang Yuanshan suddenly introduced the abbot to Meng Qi and others for some unknown reason. Grandmaster.

"Donor Zhang is ridiculous, but in our Buddhist sect, it is not called the 'immortal realm', but the 'Zen realm'." Deguang explained with a soothing expression.

At this time, Jiang Zhiwei's familiar voice sounded in Meng Qi's ears: "The layout of the temple is also consistent with Shaolin. Don't be surprised. There are too many mysteries in the world of reincarnation."

With Jiang Zhiwei's reminder, Meng Qi stepped into the temple gate and walked through the square, main hall and courtyard. He did not show any surprise, but his spirit was a little dazed. It seemed that he was not completing the reincarnation mission, but was working with Junior Brother Zhenhui. They walked together in the temple and carried out their daily routine of carrying water, reading, practicing martial arts, meditating, and chanting sutras.

when!

The melodious and profound bell rang, waking Meng Qi from his trance and calming all the worries and doubts in his heart.

Stepping into the Main Hall, Meng Qi saw a dozen monks wearing yellow robes and red cassocks. The leader had sparse white eyebrows, loose skin, and full of wrinkles, but his eyes were kind and not turbid at all.

"Several donors risked their lives to repay the debt. I am extremely grateful." Xinji clasped his hands together and pronounced a Buddha's name.

"The barbarians are ferocious and are the public enemies of the world. The poor monks and others are just doing their best to protect my Buddhist pure land." Meng Qi is quite knowledgeable in speaking on stage, and then took out the traitor given by the "Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation" from his arms List.

Xinji nodded slightly, raised his hand, and the thin page of paper fell into his hand like catkins in the wind.

Suddenly, Meng Qi's eyes flashed as he saw the golden Buddha statue in the center of the hall holding flowers and smiling, while candlelight flickered below and intertwined into words.

"The list of traitors is sent to Shaolin. Once the main task is completed, each person who enters the temple will be rewarded with fifty good deeds."

"The second main mission begins: Hold on to Shaolin until the last moment, and do not escape early. Success will reward you with 100 good deeds, and failure will deduct 100 good deeds."

The sparks fell and the words disappeared. Meng Qi eliminated the big stone in his heart, lowered his eyes, and waited quietly for Xinjie's inquiry.

Xinji nodded while looking at it, and finally sighed: "Even a monk is not immune to the world of mortals. This time, thanks to the donors who risked their lives to send this list, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"Master Abbot's magical skills are unparalleled. Even if Duo'ercha leads many masters to attack, they still can't break through Shaolin. We are just the icing on the cake." Zhang Yuanshan replied very politely.

Xinji shook his head: "Monks don't tell lies. If a traitor attacks, the mountain pass will not be able to be defended. It will be difficult to stop Duoercha's army. Moreover, I am a man who is about to pass away. His martial arts skills have long been gone. Duoercha's Ercha is also known as the number one master of the barbarians, and when he strikes, Lao Na really doesn't have the confidence to stop him, so he can only sacrifice his body to find an opportunity to suppress him. "

"Abbott, you must not do this! Keep yourself useful for the future!"

"Master, you have been powerful in the world for decades and are the symbol of my Shaolin. If you are here, even if the gate is destroyed, Shaolin will still be intact!"

One by one, the chief elders spoke out to dissuade him.

Xinji raised his right palm to stop the noise: "Amitabha, as monks, why can't you see through this stinky skin?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Meng Qi with a smile: "I am quite interested in the pursuit of several people. I wonder if I can tell you?"

Meng Qi knew that this was the key to gaining trust, so he nodded slightly: "But it's up to Master Abbot to ask questions."

Xinji asked Meng Qi, Qi Zhengyan, Xiao Zi and Xiang Hui one by one, mainly about details.

As long as their origins were not involved, Meng Qi and others had a clear conscience and did not change what they saw and heard based on each other's answers. They just said what they thought.

Xinji's expression did not change at all, and he patiently listened to everyone's answers.

"As I get older, I always have some quirks. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity." Xinji said with a smile, then turned to the monk next to him, "Arrange some donors..."

Before he finished speaking, a figure jumped out from among Meng Qi and others standing in front of him, as fast as a ghost, and pressed his chest and abdomen with a palm.

The cassock swelled up, and the figure flew away. Xinji spurted a stream of blood from his mouth, hitting the man like iron sand, making him stagger.

"Xiang Hui?" At this moment, Meng Qicai realized that the person who attacked the abbot turned out to be his companion Xiang Hui!

"Haha, the general asked me to say hello to the abbot!" "Xiang Hui" laughed loudly and slipped out of the hall as fast as light smoke.

The path he chose was in the direction of Ke Bijun, who had lower martial arts skills.

Snap, he knocked Ke Bijun away with one palm, and saw the empty door in front of him.

Success! he thought excitedly.

Suddenly, a sword light lit up, and a chill penetrated his eyebrows, forcing him to stop and change direction.

But this sword light is like a gangrene attached to the bone. No matter how "Xiang Hui" dodges, he can always feel the sting between his eyebrows!

"What kind of swordsmanship is this?" He was shocked and frightened.

At this time, a certain leader next to Xinji said in shock:

"The ever-changing scholar!"

Meng Qi suddenly realized that Xiang Hui had died in the second attack and was replaced by the "Various Scholar"!

Meng Qi suddenly shuddered at the thought of spending a whole day with such a terrifying enemy.

Fortunately, his target is not himself!
