[Comprehensive martial arts] I fall into the city

Jingnian Temple is one of the two holy places of martial arts. There are thousands of monks. However, in recent years, there are not many people who are willing to shave. Most of the temples are elderly monks and young monks, and there are few younger ones. Those who are strong and strong are mostly refugees who want to make a living. After all, the world is chaotic, which is a disaster for ordinary people, but an opportunity for young and strong.

Rebel armies all over the country are recruiting soldiers. As long as they dare to kill people and put on skins, they can live a good life. Can be regarded as the overlord, there were many young monks in the Jingnian Temple before, but in recent years, most of them have gone away. Li Che and Li Ning followed the monks along the way, and almost all they saw were old monks.

Li Che felt relieved, and when the monk took him outside a meditation room, he asked, "Master, how long are we going to stay here?"

The monk smiled and said: "Tomorrow later, the brothers who are in charge of the temple today are all in the main hall, so it's not easy to toss around at night. There are vacant rooms around here, you can rest assured to stay for a while."

Li Che hastily thanked the monk, and said, "The junior's surname is Li and his name is Che. Haven't you asked the master's Dharma name yet?"

The monk said: "The poor monk is dusty."

Li Che felt that this dharma name really had some Zen meaning, it should be the meaning of ending the fate of the world.

Unexpectedly, Liaochen sighed: "Master gave me this dharma name back then. I always thought it was to tell me not to think about the past, but later I realized that Master asked me to concentrate on sweeping the dust. I have been in the dust since I entered the temple. , it’s been 50 years now!”

Li Che couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile.

Liaochen also laughed, and said: "That's right, young people should laugh a lot, become a monk in the future, recite scriptures and practice martial arts every day, have no entertainment, no longer enlighten themselves, and don't hold back a closed phrase? "

Li Che realized that this was calling him, and quickly thanked Chen.

Liao Chen waved his hands, and left slowly with his hands behind his back.

Seeing that the surroundings were indeed clean, Li Ning was so bored that she quickly untied the blue cloth on her face. Due to the rough cloth, her face was covered with blue dye. It happened that the side of the meditation room was close to the bamboo forest. There was a well, and Li Che brought her a basin of water to wash her face.

In the middle of washing her face, Li Ning suddenly thought: "Brother, you said that I will not wear a cloth when I go out in the future, so I can apply putty dye on my face, okay? Covering the cloth is stuffy and easy to take off, and the putty looks like a lot of blood." Wouldn't it be better if it was pitch black? But wouldn't it make the face really black if it was plastered all the time?"

Li Che couldn't help laughing, "Why do you keep covering it up? Those bandits outside will snatch young women when they see them. It doesn't matter what you look like. I want you to cover your face for fear of accidents in the city. In the future, if you can With the ability to protect yourself, of course you don’t need to cover your face when you go out.”

In the end there was silence.

Beauty is not a fault, and being weak is not a fault, but it is a big fault for a weak person to have beauty. Even in the peaceful and prosperous age, he failed to protect his sister. In today's world, if you want to live, you must live with dignity. How difficult it would be to survive.

Li Che was naturally fond of rhythm, but since he came here, he never touched an instrument, because he knew that rhythm can only entertain others and himself, and under the power, rhythm cannot save life.

Li Ning was silent for a while, then laughed out loud, and said: "Let's just talk about it, if you talk about it, you'll be ashamed, I'm not a fairy."

Li Che patted her head and said, "Who are you throwing away? My sister is pretty, and she is not afraid of people talking about it."

Li Ning rested her head in Li Che's arms, sniffed her nose, and said, "I'd rather not look good, be a hag, and whoever bullies me, I'll beat him to death."

Li Che couldn't help smiling, rubbing her head, "Nonsense."

Probably when a beautiful person speaks softly and cruelly, it is easy to be misunderstood as coquetry, and Li Che did not believe it. Only Li Ning knew that she was serious.

At nightfall, a little novice came to deliver meals. The Buddhist monastery was simple, there was no meat, only steamed buns, pickles and water. Li Ning added an extra boiled chicken egg. Before he could ask, the little novice ran away blushing. .

There is also Buddhism in Daxia, which came from other countries. Most of Daxia natives believe in witchcraft passed down by Yu Zu. Because Buddhism pays attention to the rewards of suffering in this life and the retribution of sins in this life, it is difficult to integrate into the Daxia, which has always believed in the supremacy of blood and the birth of nobles. , almost only circulated among the lower classes, but in this world, it has the same detached status as Master Yu praying for rain.

For example, Fotian does not pay agricultural tax, sesame oil money does not pay commercial tax, exempts from corvee, and so on.

There are still so many privileges in the peaceful world. In troubled times, it is like a private army. It is said that everyone in Jingnian Temple practices martial arts. There are two hundred monks whose martial arts can reach second-rate masters in the world. All of them are strong in martial arts, and the Zen master Liao Kong is an unfathomable martial arts giant.

Zen Master Liaokong is still a young monk in appearance alone, not more than 40 years old at most. He is dressed in a yellow monk robe and shows a handsome face. Only a pair of eyes are extremely penetrating and wise, showing an age that does not match his appearance.

He lowered his eyes slightly, stretched out his hand to open the sandalwood incense box, and saw a pure white and flawless jade seal lying in the box, a square piece with five dragons intertwined on the top, and a corner missing at the bottom, which was filled with gold. It was He's Bi.

Standing in the middle of the hall, the imperial concubine Xuan Xuan, dressed in plain white, said, "He's Bi is just a symbol to outsiders, just like when Cihang Jingzhai gave He's Bi to Yang Jian, after the founding of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian then asked someone to send He's Bi back. The real function of He's Bi is to assist Buddhists and Taoists in their meditation practice. His master asked Fei Xuan to come and ask the Chan Master to help protect He's Bi. Today, Fei Xuan On behalf of Cihang Jingzhai and the Jingnian Temple, a ten-year agreement was made, and after this matter, Heshibi will be with the Temple for ten years."

Liao Kong didn't speak, closed the sandalwood box, and nodded slightly.

This is agreed.

Jingnian Temple and Cihang Jingzhai were born from the same origin and have a close relationship. When Shi Feixuan came here, she didn't think about the possibility of being rejected, so it's not surprising now. She smiled lightly and said: "So The younger generation will take a step first, and come to take the treasure after finding the master."

Liao Kong glanced at her, and there was some emotion in his eyes.

This is only when martial arts practice has reached an extremely profound level, the will will be released, just like at this moment Shi Feixuan clearly felt the intention of Chan Master Kong to stay.

Shi Feixuan didn't refuse, but said: "Then bother Zen Master for one night."

After accepting the Heshibi and making a ten-year agreement, all the principal monks in the monastery who were qualified to witness in the main hall were very happy. There is a clean place in the south corner, no one lives on all sides, occasionally receiving outsiders, Miss Master and the poor monk come."

Concubine Shi Xuan performed a Buddhist etiquette to him and asked him to lead the way.

Li Che found an abandoned Yaoqin in the meditation room. The body of the piano was old, one corner was gnawed by a mouse, and two strings were broken. He also found a box of spare strings along with the piano. He wanted to pretend that he hadn’t seen it. , but after all it was a matter of habit, when he came back to his senses, he was already repairing the piano.

The violins that Li Che used were good and bad. The violin in the meditation room was made of good materials. It could be seen that it had been carefully maintained, but it was abandoned for too long.

It is said to repair the piano, but in fact it means replacing the broken strings with spare old strings, trimming the damaged parts inside, and then scrubbing the dirty surface of the piano. Fortunately, although the piano is broken, the inside is still intact and has not cracked. , It can still be used if the string is changed.

At first, it was just to test the tone after repairing it, but for some reason, it slowly played the qin music, and the wind pierced through the bamboo forest, spreading the melodious sound of the qin.

Outside the bamboo grove not far away, the concubine Shi Xuan paused, and the Zhike monk was also stunned for a moment, and asked the accompanying monk, "When did people live in the south corner?"

The Zhike monk was also a little confused, and said uncertainly: "It wasn't occupied when it was cleaned yesterday, and the door was sealed again today, maybe it was someone brought in by Master Chen?"

Zhike monk didn't know how to say hello to his incomprehensible senior brother. He felt rude to his concubine Xuan, and quickly said, "It's all because the poor monk didn't make it clear. Miss teacher, you can go with the poor monk to the Jingxinyuan in the back mountain." Temporary stay."

Shi Feixuan said: "Even if there are guests, I will only live in one room. There are quite a few vacant rooms here, so Feixuan chooses one to live in. Master, please rest early."

The master monk said quickly: "The reception in the Buddhist monastery is not good enough, please don't be offended, Miss Master."

Concubine Shixuan performed another Buddhist ceremony.

The Master Zhike left with his disciples.

With the lack of human voices, the sound of the piano on the opposite side of the bamboo forest became more ethereal and ethereal. Shi Feixuan really wanted to choose an empty room to sleep in at random, but now she couldn't help but move lightly, following the sound of the piano.

At the end of the sound of the piano is a figure.

The bright moon shines brightly, the young man is in green shirt and black hair, with a Yaoqin across his knees, his white jade-like fingers are like flying butterflies on the strings, and the sound of the piano is like a clear spring.

The music is like the music in the sky, and the people are like the people in the painting.

Concubine Shixuan was stunned for a moment.

Li Che's qin music was halfway through, when he suddenly felt something, raised his head slightly, and saw a plain white figure standing by the edge of the bamboo grove, so frightened that the qin sound stopped abruptly.

Meeting a beauty under the moon is just like the plot written in a story book. However, the beauty is dressed in white and has no expression on her face. Li Che doesn't know when she came here, and he doesn't know why this person has no footsteps, let alone this beauty. It is a person or a ghost.

If people are okay, but if they are really ghosts, how fierce would a ghost be to run into a temple?

Li Che was a little scared. He stood up holding Qin, looked warily at the beauty in white who appeared quietly, and said dryly, "You, you..."

Concubine Shixuan looked at him, and suddenly smiled, like a snow mountain melting, she said: "Are you afraid of me?"

Li Che was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said honestly, "I was afraid just now, but I am not afraid now. You should be a human being."

How can a ghost smile so brightly and beautifully.

Concubine Shixuan was startled, then smiled again.

It looks better than before.
