All orthodox sects are wary of Dongfang Bubai, and even fear them. Even Buddhist masters such as Master Dingxian, facing the external troubles of the demon sect and the internal worries of the Songshan sect, are also nervous and pull Zheng Gui
Discuss countermeasures in detail.
Since Zheng Gui joined the Hengshan Sect, he has been thinking about how to preserve the Hengshan Sect, so he exchanged his ideas with the two senior sisters again.
If the Hengshan Sect opens its gates, increases its disciples, and expands secular business and influence, it is the first step to strengthen the Hengshan Sect and protect itself, then training the disciples to a certain level and then focusing on teaching the Seven-man Sword Formation is the second step.
Step two.
As long as the disciples become proficient in the sword formation, every combination of seven people can unleash several times or even ten times the strength. This is the Hengshan Sect's method that can truly make Zuo Lengchan and the Demon Sect fearful.
Although Master Dingxian and Master Dingyi also knew that their sect's sword formations were very powerful, due to limited knowledge, vision, and values, they never thought of copying the sword formations in large quantities and relying on them to build up the Hengshan Sect.
A first-class sect.
After thinking for a long time, Master Dingxian felt more and more that Junior Brother's suggestion was the best, so she clapped her hands and smiled and said: "Junior Brother, you are right, our Seven Rings Sword Formation has indeed been ignored by me in the past. From now on, I will rely on you to give it."
Disciples with good foundations will focus on teaching the Seven Rings Sword Formation!"
Master Dingyi also laughed silently and said: "It takes twenty or thirty years of hard work to practice martial arts, from entering the gate to becoming perfect both inside and outside. Even a very talented disciple will take more than ten years. Our disciples
Although there are many, the training time is not long. The only way to greatly improve our strength in a short period of time is to rely on the Seven Rings Sword Formation."
The original name of the Qijie Sword Formation is the Seven Emotions Sword Formation, which refers to the seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, fear, love, hatred, and desire that need to be overcome in Buddhist practice. Later, because Buddhist martial arts were named after emotions, it was inappropriate.
Therefore, it took the meaning of "Jieqing" and changed it to "Seven Rings Sword Formation".
This sword formation is the essence of Hengshan School martial arts. After setting up the formation, the seven people and the seven swords are each other's exterior and interior. The tip of each long sword points at the opponent's head, throat, chest, abdomen, waist, back, and side of the body.
Vital points, and at the same time, they seem to point to seven key points.
These seven vital points are the internal organs and the lower yin of the five senses, which are in charge of the seven emotions of the human body. When the seven swords are struck, they combine offense and defense. The seven swords are connected in a chain without any flaws. Even if the enemy's martial arts is several times that of the seven, he is trapped in the sword.
It is difficult to escape from the formation.
The Hengshan sect is headed by bhiksunis. They have neither ambition nor ambition. For hundreds of years, they have never thought of doing something big with the sword array. Even if there are occasional disputes in the world, they can settle them with the Hengshan sword and martial arts. This sword
The formation is rarely seen in the world.
Under Zheng Gui's in-depth and simple analysis, presenting facts and examples, both Master Dingxian and Master Dingyi understood that they had been begging for food with a golden bowl for many years and guarding the treasure without knowing how to use it.
If they had recruited many disciples, passed down their martial arts, and focused on cultivating the martial arts of the Seven Rings Sword Formation, within ten years at most, the Hengshan Sect would have become the strongest among the Wuyue Sect. Even though the number of top-notch masters was not as good as that of the Songshan Sect and Taishan Sect, it would still be able to rely on its strength.
The overall strength under the blessing of the sword array can still be compared to one.
It has been nearly a hundred years since the Five Mountains Sword Sect formed an alliance. For a hundred years, the Hengshan Sect has been the last member of the Five Mountains Sect. If two nunneries and one temple cultivate disciples with the sword formation as the core, the Master Guang Sect will be realized in the hands of their own generation.
Already...
Even though Master Dingxian was profound in Buddhism and didn't care about fame and fortune, she still felt her breathing become a little short when she thought about this. She recited the Heart Sutra silently to calm her mood, and then she made a final decision: "From tomorrow onwards, we, the two nunneries and one temple in Hengshan, will begin to select disciples.
, teach the essence of the Seven Rings Sword Formation, the footwork, body skills, mental skills, and sword skills, all must be taught by you and me personally!"
Zheng Gui and Master Dingyi knew that the teaching of the Qijie Sword Formation was of great importance, so they all stood up to accept the order.
It was already dusk when Zheng Gui returned to Baozhu Temple. At this time, it began to snow sparsely on the mountain again. When he arrived in front of the Main Hall, Zheng Gui saw Yi Guang and dozens of disciples standing together dejectedly.
Seven or eight of Yi Zhu's disciples who have been practicing for a long time and have high martial arts skills all have red and swollen faces, obviously suffering from trauma.
Opposite Yiguang and other disciples, under the golden body of the Buddha, a tall figure was illuminated by candlelight. When Zheng Gui focused his attention, he saw that it was Monk Bujie, with his hands behind his back and his belly bulging, scolding Yiguang and others for not respecting him enough.
Since there are no mentors such as the old Zen master Ding and the great monk Bujie, he naturally needs to be punished.
"Are you going to accept the beating or the punishment?"
Yiguang is not a stubborn person. He has no persistence and no pursuit. He knows that his martial arts status is far inferior to that of a monk who refuses to quit. He can only bow his head and admit his defeat, saying: "Disciple accepts punishment."
Monk Bujie laughed. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Zheng Gui approaching. He took two steps forward to greet him and said, "Senior Brother Abbot is back."
Zheng Gui asked: "How come Senior Brother Bujie disciplines them?"
Monk Bujie chuckled and said: "Our Baozhu Temple has just been built five years ago. Senior brother, you have to practice and take care of things. How can you stay busy?
These boys don't understand many rules, and the senior brother Yiguang is also very lazy. When I came just now, they refused to obey the discipline of me, the supervisor of the temple. As a senior brother, Yiguang secretly ate meat and drank wine, and I caught him.
How can we not confiscate the food and wine and punish him properly?"
As he spoke, Monk Bujie subconsciously wiped his mouth. Zheng Gui immediately knew that Monk Bujie came to Baozhu Temple and announced his identity, saying that he was the monk overseeing the temple. Yi Guang and other disciples did not recognize Monk Bujie and did not ask him.
Even more unbelievable, monk Bujie took action when he was angry.
As for eating meat and drinking alcohol, the monks who refused to abstain naturally did not take care of them seriously. They probably hated Yiguang for eating and drinking on his own and did not want to honor him.
After all, Zheng Gui was not a serious eminent monk. He only asked his disciples to adhere to the right and wrong. He always turned a blind eye to Yi Guang's secret drinking and eating meat. When he heard this, he snorted coldly and said: "No."
This is exactly what Senior Brother Jie disciplines."
"This Master Bujie will be the supervisor of our Baozhu Temple from now on. He will be responsible for the precepts of your disciples. You must strictly abide by our Buddhist precepts. If you dare to violate the precepts, you will be severely punished. Brother Bujie, how do you want to punish them?
"
Hearing the abbot's question, how could a monk without discipline know anything about it? He touched his belly and said with a smile: "This young monk is new here, please ask the abbot to give me a try."
Zheng Gui smiled and nodded, looked at Yi Guang, and said in a deep voice: "You have been practicing under my disciple for almost six years, how can you still be unable to control your desire for words?
If you lead the junior fellow apprentices into evil, you will be the sinner of this temple. As a senior fellow apprentice, how can you lead by example?
If you don’t quit, the elders will punish you in the future, and you should all reflect and repent!”
After scolding Yiguang and other disciples, Zheng Gui said in a low voice: "Now is the time for the temple to employ people, why not let Yiguang and others go to Guolao Cave and face the wall for ten days as punishment?"
Monk Bujie nodded and said, "That's what the abbot said, so let's do it."
