By the time Master Dingxian, Zheng Gui and others sent Master Fang Zheng, Taoist Chongxu and others down the mountain, the sky had darkened.
Although the atmosphere on Songshan Mountain was very subtle, Master Dingxian had already become the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance. Lehou and the Songshan disciples did not dare to express any opinions. They just invited everyone to Junji Zen Temple to talk.
Junji Zen Monastery was Zuo Lengchan's retreat for many years. Now that his political future and lifelong pursuit were ruined, and he knew that the Hengshan Sect would not let him live, he committed suicide. Junji Zen Monastery became ownerless again.
place.
Master Dingxian, Yue Buqun, Mo Da, Taoist Priest Tianmen, Lehou and others walked into the main hall of the Zen monastery. Before they had time to sit down, Master Dingxian began to discuss with everyone the burial matters of Zuo Lengchan, Ding Mian and others.
Although many people from the Songshan sect died at the hands of eminent monks and nuns from the Hengshan sect, they had spoken out beforehand, and Lehou had always obeyed after taking charge of the affairs. Therefore, when talking about funeral arrangements, it did not arouse the resentment and hostility of the Songshan sect.
After the funeral arrangements for the left leader of the Songshan Sect and others were settled, Master Dingxian looked at Lehou and said: "Junior brother Lehou, the family cannot be without an owner for a day. Now that the Songshan Sect is leaderless, I think you will be the new leader.
Take charge."
Lehou did not refuse, and agreed after bowing his hands.
When Zheng Gui saw that the new leader of the Songshan Sect had been decided, he suggested: "We, the Five Mountains Sword Sect, are of the same spirit. Today's Fengchantai battle is the most tragic event in decades. Senior sister, the leader, you should stop asking about secular affairs.
Our five major factions are divided into one side again. If time goes on, this will inevitably create discord and cause trouble. Therefore, I suggest that we elect a deputy leader to assist the leader in handling affairs and supervise the other factions, so as to avoid another situation like Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan faction.
Things like making friends with demon sect elders happened..."
As soon as Zheng Gui made the suggestion, both the monks Bujie and Dingyi of the Hengshan sect nodded their heads. Yue Buqun also felt happy and twisted his beard and said: "Yes, that's right. The tragedy we suffered today is definitely not the fault of Senior Brother Zuo. So,
In my opinion, the lack of contact between our five major sects has created a gap, and Zen Master Dingding’s discussion is a great good thing, and this is exactly what it should be.”
Mo Da and Tianmen were already convinced by Master Dingxian and others at this time, and they knew that their opposition would not help, but would offend the Hengshan and Huashan factions, so they both nodded in agreement.
Then, with Zheng Gui's advance advice, most people recommended Jian Yue Buqun, a gentleman of the Huashan Sect. Even though Yue Buqun repeatedly declined, he finally refused and became the deputy leader of the Wuyue Sword Sect, responsible for supervising each sect.
The Hengshan sect became the new leader, and the Huashan sect became the deputy leader. The Songshan sect suffered heavy casualties, and the Hengshan sect and the Taishan sect gained nothing. Although the attitude of Master Dingxian of the Hengshan sect not to fight for rights is reassuring, but what about Mo Da and Tianmen Taoist Master?
I didn’t catch it either, and I was still feeling disappointed.
Master Dingxian seemed to understand the thoughts of Taoist Tianmen and Mr. Mo Da. She smiled slightly and began to reorganize the business and dealings of the Wuyue Sword Sect. In order to satisfy both the Taishan and Hengshan sects, the Hengshan sect gave up private salt and tea.
He also promised that he would only serve as leader of the Five Mountains Alliance for ten years. After ten years, the Five Mountains Sword Faction would reunite at Jianxing Peak and re-elect a new leader.
Except for the Songshan sect, the other three sects were also very satisfied with Master Dingxian's noble and upright actions, and then the Five Sacred Mountains Conference came to a successful conclusion.
The disciples of each sect came out of Junji Zen Temple and went down the mountain together. When they walked out of Songyang Academy, the four major sects said goodbye.
Watching Yue Buqun, Mo Da, and Tianmen Taoist Priests leading their disciples away, Master Dingxian glanced at Zheng Gui and asked, "Junior brother, do you want to go to Shaolin?"
Zheng Gui was startled, and immediately realized that the head senior sister seemed to be aloof from worldly affairs, but she had already noticed that the Shaolin Temple had some connection with him.
Zheng Gui asked himself that he had no intention of harming the Hengshan Sect. All he wanted was to preserve the Hengshan Sect and obtain Yi Jin Jing, the only magical skill in the Xiaoao Jianghu world that could improve his qualifications. So he smiled very openly and said: "
Yes, Senior Sister, I want to go to Shaolin to read the ancient classics in their Sutra Pavilion."
Master Dingxian smiled slightly, looked at Dingjing and Dingyi, and said, "We haven't consulted Master Fang Zheng in person for many years. Shaolin Temple happens to be nearby. Why don't we go and visit together?"
Master Dingjing and Master Dingyi always listened to Dingxian's words the most, and immediately nodded in agreement, and then sent their disciples to return to the mountain in pairs. Hengshan and Si Ding were going to Shaolin Temple together this time. Hundreds of Hengshan disciples were led by Yihe and others.
Disciples, monks who were not disciplined, mute women, etc. led the way.
Master Dingxian first believed in the strength of Monk Bujie and others, and also believed in the strength of the sword array of the disciples of the Hengshan Sect. Secondly, he asked himself that the Songshan Sect was defeated and surrendered. After the Fengchantai Conference, the Hengshan Sect is now at its peak.
No one dared to offend the disciples of the Hengshan Sect, so she felt relieved and let the disciples leave for the time being, and then took Zheng Gui and the others to the nearby Shaoshi Mountain.
It was already night when Master Dingxian and Zheng Gui arrived at the guest pavilion in front of the Shaolin Temple. The moon and stars were sparse. The four of them were all martial arts masters. Even though it was late at night, they could clearly see two middlemen standing in the pavilion.
Year old monk.
Seeing Zheng Gui and Dingxian, the two Shaolin monks bowed and clasped their hands together and said: "Jie Yue, Jue Xin, the abbot ordered me to welcome the Buddhist friends of Hengshan here. You three are Master Dingxian and Master Dingjing."
, Master Dingyi, are you Zen Master Dingyi?”
In terms of seniority, Shaolin monks of the Fang generation were originally of the same generation as Master Cixin. That is to say, Master Dingxian and Zheng Gui were just the same generation as the two monks of the Jue generation in front of them. Therefore, although Master Dingxian was already expensive,
Although he was the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains, he did not show off at all and returned the gift politely. Then the two monks took Zheng Gui and the four of them into the Shaolin Temple.
Shaolin Temple has a long history of not accepting female relatives, but bhikshuni are disciples of Buddhism after all, so they are not exempt from this rule.
Everyone entered the Shaolin Temple, passed through the corridor next to the Main Hall, and saw the abbot's room.
Jueyue walked to the door and said, "Uncle Abbot, the four masters from Hengshan and the Zen master have arrived."
Fang Zheng's voice came out: "Please come in quickly."
The door was pushed open by a gust of breeze. Zheng Gui and the other two walked in and saw Fang Zheng and Fang Sheng getting up from the futon and welcoming them out.
Everyone exchanged a few pleasantries before entering the room again, and then the guests and hosts took their seats.
After chatting for a while, Master Dingxian made an appointment with Fang Zheng to discuss scriptures tomorrow, and then the three nuns were invited to rest in the monastery prepared outside the temple. At this time, only Fang Zheng, Fang Sheng and Zheng Guisan were left in the abbot's room.
people.
Fang Sheng smiled and said: "Brother Abbot, Zen Master Dingding helped the Wuyue Sword Sect change its leader and avoided a great misfortune in the world in the future. It was really a great act of wisdom and courage. Although the leader Zuo and Mr. Ding suffered several casualties, they are not guilty.
Hengshan, it can be seen from this that Zen Master Dingding is a most courageous and eminent monk..."
Fang Zheng nodded slightly and also praised Zheng Gui.
Zheng Gui hurriedly took the opportunity to mention that he admired Shaolin martial arts and wanted to read the Yi Jin Jing.
After hearing the words, Master Fang Zheng pondered for a long time and said: "How precious is the martial arts? It's okay to give it to Zen Master Dingding. However, I have ancestral teachings in Shaolin, and my martial arts cannot be passed on to others at will, because practicing Shaolin's unique skills must cooperate with my Zen Buddhism."
It is impossible to resolve the hostility in martial arts. If it is spread rashly, the fear is that people will fall into the devil's path and create karma..."
Master Fang Sheng said: "Zen Master Ding is an eminent monk who has attained enlightenment. If he can learn the Shaolin Yi Jin Sutra, he will not be angry in his heart, and he may be able to further our Buddhism."
Master Fang Zheng hesitated for a long time and said: "However, this skill is about the method of destiny. Among the hundreds of monks in this temple, not one person has the destiny. Although Zen Master Ding has great compassion and perseverance, after all, his heart is in worldly affairs and he cannot calmly practice our Zen Buddhism...
…”
Zheng Gui looked at the dilemma on the faces of the two old monks, his heart moved, and he bowed and said: "Master Fang Zheng, this young monk is willing to worship you as his teacher and live in Shaolin to study the Yi Jin Jing and Buddhism. What do you think?"
Fang Zheng and Fang Sheng showed joy on their faces and said: "If this is true, then it will be the blessing of my Buddhism."
Fang Zheng said with a smile: "Zen Master Ding Ding doesn't need to worship me as his teacher. I will introduce you to worship under my mentor. You just become our registered junior disciple. In this way, you can live in the Shaolin Temple permanently...
"
Zheng Gui knew that Fang Zheng was worried that he would pass the Yi Jin Jing back to the Hengshan Sect, so he also intended to let him worship in Shaolin again. He originally thought that he could return to the world after learning the Yi Jin Jing, and he had already helped Master Dingxian
Having rented the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, the Five Mountains Sword Sect has been safe and sound in recent decades, so I decisively decided to become a disciple.
Master Fang Sheng said: "Although Zen Master Ding's mentor, Master Ci Xin, has passed away long ago, you still have three senior sisters here. If you want to worship me in Shaolin again, you should discuss it with Master Dingxian and others first."
Zheng Gui nodded and said: "Then I will discuss it with the head senior sister tomorrow before deciding."
After the matter was decided, Zheng Gui went to the wing to rest under the guidance of two monks, Jue Xin. When it became clear the next day that Master Dingxian and his wife had come to the temple again to listen to Buddhist scriptures, Zheng Gui informed Master Dingxian.
Master Dingxian didn't seem surprised. She nodded and said, "My mentor once told me after I accepted you as my disciple. She knew that you had wisdom and that you were the reincarnation of an Arhat. You would not stick to any one family.
That’s why she once asserted that the great success of our Hengshan Sect will be your fault. Now that our Hengshan Sect has become the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains and has hundreds of disciples, it is already the most prosperous period since the sect was founded hundreds of years ago.
You have your pursuit, how can we stop you? Don’t worry, I will talk to Master Fang Zheng later.”
Zheng Gui looked at the reluctance in Dingyi's eyes and suddenly remembered that during the more than twenty years he had been at Jianxingfeng, all his martial arts were cultivated by his mentor and three senior sisters. He had grown from a little beggar to what he is today.
The best master in the world, the "monk-killing" Zen Master who is famous in the martial arts world. What a kindness and deep emotion this is...
Zheng Gui's eyes were slightly red, and he bowed and said, "Thank you three senior sisters. It will be enough for my little brother to become siblings with you three in this life."
Soon the four of them met Master Fang Zheng in cassocks and more than a dozen eminent monks of the Fang generation in the Main Hall. After the meeting, Master Dingxian told Fang Zheng about Master Dingxian's transfer to Shaolin to learn Shaolin Buddhism and magical skills.
, Fang Zheng saw that Master Dingxian had no hard feelings, so he smiled slightly and said: "In that case, I will accept the disciples on my behalf. Dingxian already has a dharma title, and there is no need to change it. Become my mentor."
Just follow me and study Buddhism and the Yi Jin Jing from now on."
Master Dingxian bowed to express his thanks, while Zheng Gui hurriedly stepped forward to kowtow.
After a period of tedious etiquette, Zen Master Ding of the Hengshan School was also blessed with the identity of an eminent monk of the Shaolin School. Although there are not many inheritances from the two schools in the martial arts, it is not uncommon. In addition, the Hengshan School and Shaolin Temple are both Zen sects.
, so it doesn’t feel out of the ordinary.
After the apprenticeship ceremony of Zheng Gui, Hengshan Sanding, Fang Zheng and other eminent monks discussed Buddhism for a long time and then left.
Zheng Guize stayed in the Shaolin Temple and began his life as a Shaolin monk.
After getting acquainted with the personnel of each temple in the Shaolin Temple in the afternoon, Fang Sheng took Zheng Gui to the abbot's room at night.
Fang Sheng smiled and said: "Junior brother, I didn't listen to the instructions on the Yi Jin Jing, so I can only send you here."
Zheng Gui put his hands together and saluted Fang Sheng and said, "Thank you, senior brother Fang Sheng."
Fang Sheng turned around and left. Zheng Guance opened the door and walked in. He saw Fang Zheng sitting on the futon.
Fang Zheng raised his eyes and said, "Junior brother, please sit down."
Zheng Guirui sat down on the futon in front of Fang Zheng. Then Fang Zheng raised his right hand and a gust of hot air blew out. The candle on the altar table three feet away was suddenly lit, and the candlelight also illuminated the abbot's room.
Zheng Gui looked at Fang Zheng in surprise, and Fang Zheng smiled and said: "This is my sect's wood-burning knife technique. I use the Yang Zhenqi to activate it, and it can light candles and paper. It's not very clever."
Zheng Gui said with a look of admiration: "Senior Brother Abbot's incredible skills are unbelievable. I think even Dongfang Bubai may not have such means."
Master Fang Zheng waved his hand gently and said: "This sect's magical skill seems to have no end, and I am only getting a first glimpse of its secrets. Please stay calm while I teach you the formula of Yi Jin Jing's Heart Method."
Zheng Gui and Fang Zheng looked stern, and then began an interactive session of teaching and learning.
The entire Yi Jin Jing contains only a thousand words of mental formulas, but each sentence is profound and profound. Fang Zheng first said it over and over again and asked Zheng Gui to write it down. After half an hour, Zheng Gui could write down the mental formulas.
Then I started to explain sentence by sentence.
After more than two hours, Zheng Gui finally understood. Then Master Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Junior brother, please start practicing Qigong with the Yi Jin Jing Xin method. I am here, and I can also check with you."
Make mistakes and omissions to avoid going astray and hurting yourself."
After Zheng Gui thanked him, he closed his eyes and tried his luck. At first, the true energy in his body still circulated according to the Hengshan Heart Method. After a while, he changed the meridian and acupuncture points.
Zheng Gui adjusted his breathing according to the mental method of the Yi Jin Jing, transported the true energy, and penetrated the acupuncture points and meridians. Unknowingly, he fell into a mysterious state where things and myself are forgotten.
When Fang Zheng first met Professor Zheng Gui's Yi Jin Jing Xin method, he was slow to remember and thought that his new disciple's qualifications were average, but when he saw that he was able to meditate and move Qi in an instant, he also entered a supreme state of practicing internal skills.
, Fang Zheng then showed surprise.
Fang Zheng knew that the cultivation of his character and character was no longer inferior to his own. He was a Buddhist genius that was rare to see in a hundred years. Even if his qualifications and understanding were poor, with his cultivation of character and character, practicing internal skills would get twice the result with half the effort, and his achievements would definitely not be low.
Zheng Gui didn't know that his inner strength training could actually arouse Fang Zheng's admiration. At this time, he was just unconsciously running his inner energy.
At first, the movement of zhen qi in his body was still very slow and slow. After a week, the zhen qi in Zheng Gui's body became more and more lively. The zhen qi that originally had a feminine attribute due to the Hengshan Mental Technique he practiced gradually became more yang.
gas.
Zheng Gui knows that the true energy of practicing the Yi Jin Jing is neutral and peaceful, with a balance of yin and yang. Therefore, it can nourish the meridian acupoints and organs of the body, and continuously improve the qualifications for practicing martial arts, whether it is yin attribute meridian acupoints or yang attribute meridian acupoints.
It can be developed to the greatest extent. Because of this, the Yi Jin Jing can be called the number one magical skill of Shaolin Temple and one of the number one magical skills of the low-level martial arts world.
Precisely because he knew that the Yi Jin Jing was powerful and could improve his qualifications, Zheng Gui was determined to learn the Yi Jin Jing and bring it back to this world. Now that he finally got his wish, Zheng Gui naturally devoted himself wholeheartedly to practicing the Yi Jin Jing.
, I wish I could practice the Yi Jin Jing in one breath.
