Chapter 128 There is a demon monk in the White Horse Temple
Chapter 128 There is a monster monk in the White Horse Temple
Although the White Horse Temple is a bit dilapidated, it only adds to its historical significance.
The incense in Baima Temple is extremely popular.
Pilgrims were as densely packed as moving ants, coming in and out, crowded and crowded.
The abbot of White Horse Temple is about 50 years old. He has white eyebrows lowered and a kind face. He looks like a senior monk! All the monks behind him are wearing gray robes and they have all been ordained. So from a distance, they look like thousands of people. At first glance, they look really different.
It was difficult to distinguish, but fortunately the abbot was wearing the only red cassock. Feng Jiuxiao thought that all she had to do was identify him!
It stands to reason that Abbot Shiyin can completely ignore him as the "Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial City Department". The abbot of White Horse Temple has a very high status in the eyes of the emperor! Even comparable to Taoist Zhang Tianshi! Because White Horse Temple also has an ancestral-level status in Buddhism!
But it can also be seen from this that it is not unreasonable for the incense in Baima Temple to be so prosperous.
Feng Jiuxiao thought to herself: This is like a down-and-out scholar who went up a mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha. Unexpectedly, the abbot personally received him. The scholar would naturally think: Today you condescend to treat me, how can I turn a blind eye? If I am to be a good person in the future, I will definitely burn incense to fulfill my wish.
!Big roast, special roast!
This is incense love!
There are a total of six or seven monks around the abbot, all of whom are not too young. They are the chief monk of each monastery, the supervisory monastery and the guest monk. The abbot introduced them one by one. Each monk put his palms together and saluted.
Feng Jiuxiao put her palms together and bowed one by one in return.
When he and the leader of the back hall looked at each other, Feng Jiuxiao's heart moved! These eyes seemed familiar, and he couldn't remember where he had seen them before, and they felt very uncomfortable. He kept his expression and continued to return the courtesy to the next eminent monk.
Abbot Shiyin introduced Feng Jiuxiao into the guest hall, knowing that the guest monk had already arranged for the monk to serve tea and water.
After the guests and hosts took their seats, Abbot Shiyin smiled and said, "Is this your first time coming to White Horse Temple, little benefactor?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Exactly."
Abbot Shiyin said: "The bell of this temple is known as one of the eight scenic spots in Luoyang. The bell's melodious sound can reach up to ten miles. It can resonate with the big bell of the bell tower in the east of the city. It is really a wonderful work. Later, the donor can go to the bell tower to have a look."
Feng Jiuxiao clasped her palms together and said, "Thank you, Abbot."
Abbot Shiyin added: "There are many stories about famous people in the history of White Horse Temple. The previous abbot hired some skilled craftsmen to copy and carve portraits of all historical figures, including the portraits of eminent monks from past dynasties, on the stone steles. Now a large forest of steles has been formed."
Feng Jiuxiao looked at Yuan Zishan, who nodded. She was still dressed as a man at this time. In order to be more low-key, she changed into gray clothes and her beard became thicker. Following Feng Jiuxiao's advice, she also soaked the gray robe with tea leaves.
To cover up the body odor, I applied lipstick mixed with honey and black pearl powder on my lips, otherwise the red lips would be too bright. I also specially applied a precious special lipstick on my face, the color is close to flesh color, to cover the suet.
She has a very fair and tender complexion. In addition, Feng Jiuxiao also spent a lot of time talking about her walking posture before Yuan Zishan changed her gender. Although it is ugly, it is closer to the pace of a man. So without looking carefully, no one would notice that Yuan Zishan is a woman.
.It doesn’t matter the pepper. According to Feng Jiuxiao, she is a manly woman and is not afraid of thieves. Of course, a baptism of flying knives is indispensable!
Under the leadership of Abbot Shiyin, the group of four people first appreciated the ancient charm of the giant white horse bell. The abbot had already seen that Feng Jiuxiao had always followed the lead of "Mr. Yuan", so he made a special exception and allowed Yuan Zishan to ring the bell three times! The sound of the bell was indeed loud and distant.
The big clock in the bell tower in the east of the city really resonated, and Yuan Zishan was quite excited. The abbot saw that Mr. Yuan smiled very softly, and couldn't help rubbing his eyes, wondering if he was a little dazzled! Then he browsed the Forest of Steles. According to the Forest of Steles
From the content of the seal carvings, Feng Jiuxiao learned about the history of the White Horse Temple's beginning, rise, decline, and revival.
Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, Liu Zhuang, had a dream about a golden man at night, so he sent envoys to the western regions to pray for Buddhist teachings. In the seventh year of Yongping, the envoys of the Han Dynasty and two eminent monks from Tianzhu took pictures of the Buddha. Zhu Falan carried the Buddhist scriptures on a white horse. The Buddha statue arrived in Luo, and Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty personally greeted it.
So this temple was built.
Because Zhu Moteng and Zhu Falan are from Tianzhu, the White Horse Temple was built in the Tianzhu architectural style at that time. Although the White Horse Temple was almost destroyed after the Anshi Rebellion and the Huangchao Rebellion, some places still retain the Tianzhu architectural style.
.
Now that Emperor Sejong has rebuilt Baima Temple, it can be described in eight words.
"Renovation and great construction", "More like the heavenly palace".
Feng Jiuxiao had "examined" the martial arts of several eminent monks while walking!
As long as there is internal energy running in a person, some kind of "magnetic field" will be generated outside the body. Masters often "see through" each other's martial arts state at a glance. This is due to the "invisible magnetic field" that ordinary people cannot detect at all. The strength of the magnetic field
Weakness is proportional to the strength of internal force.
Feng Jiuxiao discovered that there was one person whose inner energy flow in martial arts was completely different from others.
Although the martial arts of other monks are not high, they imply compassion and compassion. Although that person's martial arts is well disguised and he has decent martial arts on the surface, he is evil in his heart!
Among the monks, he has the highest martial arts, the pinnacle of the Eight Realms!
Whenever Feng Jiuxiao's eyes glanced at him inadvertently, he would avoid Feng Jiuxiao's eyes.
He is hiding from himself!
His martial arts are clearly those from the Demonic Sect's Book of Bliss, but the intensity is much different, far from reaching the "Buddha Realm", and lacks the enlightenment and guidance of Buddhism. The direction goes further and further away, and the more he practices the martial arts, the more evil he becomes!
The reason why the Demonic Cult is called the Demonic Cult is because it clearly has a good hand but it is eager for quick success and plays it to pieces!
The "Corpse Exorcism Technique" draws on the Taoist "Five Ghosts Moving Technique" and Maoshan's "Corpse Exorcism Technique". However, these two magic arts were originally used to do good deeds and accumulate evil virtues, but they were used by the Demon Cult to kill people.
Tool of!
The "soul-locking technique" borrowed from the Taoist soul-locking method. It was originally intended to save people who were about to die, but it also turned out to be a harmful method!
There is no distinction between good and evil in martial arts. It's just that the practitioners and those who use martial arts distinguish good from evil!
A crow suddenly landed on the branch of a locust tree. Looking east and west, it seemed that it was frightened by something and suddenly flew away again.
In a flash of lightning, Feng Jiuxiao finally remembered whose eyes the leader of the back hall looked like!
Crow King!
The sky above Jingyang City.
Demon Crow Formation.
Crow King!
There is a Crow King with two poles that look like human eyes!
There are actually double "crow's eyes" in the first seat of the back hall!
No wonder it always feels weird, sinister and uncomfortable!
Feng Jiuxiao asked calmly: "Abbott, has anything unusual happened in the temple recently?"
The abbot thought: The conversation finally got to the point! He smiled and said: "I haven't felt anything unusual lately." He knew that a large number of commanders from the Imperial City Division had come to Luoyang, just to track down suspicious people.
Now that the deputy commander-in-chief is here, it is normal for him to ask about the situation.
According to what he knew, the 200 monks in the entire temple were performing their duties and everything was operating as usual. Indeed, no abnormalities were found.
Feng Jiuxiao said: "May I ask what kind of martial arts the monks in your temple usually practice?"
The abbot was stunned for a brief moment, wondering why Mr. Feng asked such a question. But he came back to his senses immediately. The deputy commander naturally would not covet the secrets of our sect. Abbot Shiyin said: "The main martial arts practiced in this temple are
Shaolin Temple's Fuhu Shenquan, those with better qualifications just practice Vajra Palm and Arhat Boxing, and those with better qualifications will practice the ten postures of Bodhidharma. Because Shaolin Temple is not far from us, Emperor Sejong wanted to make the old glory of Baima Temple great, and ordered Shaolin Temple to teach all
The power of the temple supports White Horse Temple! So the martial arts of White Horse Temple basically come from Shaolin!"
Feng Jiuxiao finally understood why the people in White Horse Temple knew Shaolin martial arts.
According to the abbot, since the establishment of the temple, White Horse Temple has been focused on promoting Buddhism and has not paid much attention to martial arts. It has never produced any famous warrior monks. It was not until Emperor Taizu of this dynasty encouraged monks to practice martial arts that martial arts appeared in White Horse Temple.
monk.
Feng Jiuxiao understood again why the monks of White Horse Temple were not very good at martial arts. They had no accumulation.
Feng Jiuxiao suddenly said to the head of the back hall: "How long have you been lurking here?"
The old monk was shocked all over!
He suddenly turned around, bent down and lunged, trying to fly away!
Just as he was about to move, he felt a strong wind blowing towards him. Before he could react, he felt that several acupuncture points had been sealed!
His body was rushing out, but his upper body continued to rush forward due to inertia, but his feet failed to keep up, and he fell to the ground immediately!
Everyone was shocked!
Abbot Shiyin looked at the head of the back hall lying on the ground, and then at the deputy commander-in-chief, and seemed to understand a little. He asked tentatively: "Master, is there something wrong with him?"
Feng Jiuxiao remained calm, "Yes, he is the demon from the Demon Cult lurking around you!"
Abbot Shiyin was a little confused, "He has been at White Horse Temple for more than 20 years. Could it be that he has been hiding in hiding for 20 years?"
"Everything is possible!"
Shi Yin frowned and looked at the head of the back hall, never expecting that he was a member of the Demon Cult!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "There is still a possibility that he changed his mind later!"
The acupoints on the head of the back hall were sealed and he could not move, but the mute acupuncture points were not sealed. He said hoarsely: "Since I fell into your hands, give me a good time!"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled, "Your wish is very beautiful, but do you think I will help you realize it? Hundreds of corpses have disappeared and you don't want to explain it?"
The head of the back hall had his eyes flashing but said nothing.
Feng Jiuxiao slowly walked to him, "You must be thinking at this time, otherwise I will tell you how the body was transported out, and maybe you will let me go!"
The first person in the back hall was shocked.
He really thought so.
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Then why don't you tell us how so many people died?"
The head of the back hall suddenly turned pale, and he completely gave up the idea of survival. He regretted not putting a grain of poison in his teeth. He thought that it would not be used, and he lost Jingzhou because of his carelessness!
How did so many people die? No need to ask? Some of them provoked dissension and made them kill each other, some of them killed directly, and of course there were also those of Zhao Yuntian and the others. Killing people pays for their lives, and with so many lives on their hands, they will definitely die.
Undoubtedly, it is death anyway, so why should we have the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death?
He simply said nothing.
Feng Jiuxiao's original intention was to deceive him. He originally thought that those corpses were caused after the gang war, otherwise how could they be all young men?
Unexpectedly, my guess turned out to be right.
He sneered and said: "If you explain it in detail, I will give you a pleasure. Otherwise, do you think that only the methods of the Demon Cult are called methods?"
The first person in the back hall looked at the young man in white standing proudly, showing off his domineering attitude. In a daze, he actually had the illusion that the person standing in front of him was actually the Demon Lord!
