Rebirth for the good

You's technique is really good, you must have practiced it. "

Lu Shangming said in a deep voice: "I am very familiar with the muscles and bones of this human body. You said I haven't practiced it before."

The old man obviously felt less pain immediately, and yawned unconsciously, "Old man, sleep for a while." He closed his eyes before waiting for the others to react, as if he had already fallen asleep.

Even if Lu Shangming was full of anger, he could only helplessly smile a few times at this time, and said, "Daohui, go and get a quilt."

The bed was already occupied by his younger brother, so Lu Shangming had no choice but to let the old man lie on the ground. Fortunately, Dao Hui brought the bedding so that the old man would not catch a cold, otherwise if he woke up, there might be some troubles.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Lu Shangming whispered to Daohui, "Let's go out for a walk?" He didn't want to spend the last two days in this world with the old man and the young monk.

Daohui echoed repeatedly, and said with a smile: "I'll take Master Lu to the place where I live to have a look."

Lu Shangming wished he could leave this place immediately, he nodded in agreement, and went out with Daohui.

The two stopped and walked, only hearing the Sanskrit sounds in the distance, coupled with the quiet and beautiful scenery in front of them, it made people feel peaceful and peaceful, and there was a poem to prove it: "The Sanskrit sounds in the clouds are often ethereal, and the loose tower The shadows come from the forest."

There are many majestic Buddhist temples in the temple. Lu Shangming remembered that he had never worshiped a god or Buddha in his life, but he was able to have such a chance when he died that day. .

Daohui clasped his hands together, lowered his head and recited the Buddha's name silently, Lu Shangming didn't bother him, and watched it quietly by himself, thinking that although this Shaolin Temple is simple and old, and the interior decoration is even more simple, it is more solemn than the Liuhe Shengjiao General Altar The solemnity made him fascinated and envious.

The two of them were walking slowly, when they suddenly heard loud voices not far away, many people rushed towards this side in a hurry, all of them were wearing monk robes, the leader was holding a Buddhist staff, wearing cassocks, and white beards. The wind is fluttering, and his face is full of kindness, which looks like an eminent monk.

Daohui raised his head suddenly, he could see clearly, and called out in a low voice, "It's the abbot."

He was wounded, Lu Shangming couldn't help being a little startled, maybe it was the Sutra Pavilion that was exposed, but he had heard about the abbot of Shaolin Temple, Master Yuan Ku, from Nangong Yu that day, not to mention his superior martial arts as a junior He has a lot of talents, and his character alone is enough to be praised by everyone in the martial arts circle, so he would never act hastily if he thinks about it.

That Master Yuan Ku was only ten feet away, and now he has arrived in front of the two of them in an instant, but his face is not red and his heart is not beating. Huan said: "The benefactor came from a long way, but I couldn't meet him, please forgive me."

Seeing that he was polite, Lu Shangming liked him a little more, waved his hand and said, "It's okay."

Daohui bowed to the abbot and asked, "I don't know why the abbot's master came here?"

Master Yuan Ku said: "I don't beat around the bush, the Buddhist scripture pavilion in this temple was broken into by thieves, and one of the scriptures was stolen, and your brother Daoyuan is also missing."

Daohui was about to speak, but was grabbed by Lu Shangming, and said first: "I didn't expect such a disaster to happen to your temple. I wonder if there is any clue?"

The Shaolin disciples who were following Master Yuan Ku also caught up at this time, and one of them pointed at Lu Shang and yelled sharply: "Abbot, that's him, I saw him come out of the Sutra Pavilion with Junior Brother Daoyuan with my own eyes!"

Daohui couldn't help wondering why the abbot didn't know about this matter, so he wanted to explain it, but he was stopped by Lu Shangming, who only heard him say: "How is this possible, it's the first time I come to Shaolin Temple in my life. How can I know the location of the Sutra Pavilion, not to mention if I committed such a crime, why would I stay here and endure your censure?"

With Lu Shangming's temperament, he didn't need to hesitate to admit these things, but he was worried that Daohui would be implicated, so he had to lie.

Master Yuan Ku said: "The almsgiver is right, but as the abbot of Shaolin, I should find out the truth, and I must not listen to one word. Besides, the scriptures are nothing but things outside the body. If you lose them, you can find them. Daoyuan Life is a matter of great importance, so we must not delay."

Lu Shangming said seriously: "The abbot's implication is that I killed Daoyuan and hid it in the corpse room?"

"Amitabha," Master Yuan Ku shook his head and said, "Don't worry, benefactor, I'm just worried about the safety of Daoyuan and want to find him as soon as possible."

The monk next to him scolded: "You are so unreasonable. The abbot is trying to persuade you, but you are so rude. If you are really innocent, then let us go to your room to have a look."

"Not bad, not bad, let us see if you have the ability!" The other monks responded one after another.

Lu Shangming sneered and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill that dao source and throw his body into the lake?"

Master Yuan Ku said: "My old monk once went to the Sutra-Depository Pavilion to look at it, and the books and scriptures are scattered all over the place. If the thief intends to kill the Taoist source to cover up his crime, he will definitely not let the Sutra-Depository Pavilion be as messy as it is. , let alone flee away with the burden of Daoyuan. According to the old monk, it is very likely that the thief still has a heart of compassion, and he acted in a panic after taking the injured Daoyuan away for medical treatment. His disciples saw it."

Hearing that his words were well-founded, Lu Shangming guessed more than half of them, and couldn't help sighing: "I can't tell you, if you want to see it, go and see it."

Daohui was shocked, if the abbot knew about Daoyuan's injury, he would definitely turn against Lu Shangming, so what to do, but he had very little experience, so he could only say at this moment: "Benefactor Lu once saved the life of his disciple, it is by no means Those who harm others, the abbot and the ancestors must trust the disciples." When he said this, it seemed to be pleading for Lu Shangming, which made people more suspicious.

Master Yuan Ku smiled and said, "Your nature is pure and good, the old monk knows it very well, but if you don't investigate this matter clearly, how can the old monk give an explanation to all disciples."

Daohui saw the angry appearance of several seniors, obviously he had lost trust in himself, so he couldn't help but planned to take out the "Marrow Washing Sutra" in his arms, and take all the blame on him, which should avoid Lu Shangming's suspicion.

But as soon as he touched the scriptures, Lu Shangming grabbed his wrist tightly, and he shook his head and said, "If you give up halfway, I will die with regret."

Although he spoke in an extremely low voice, his words were sonorous and forceful, which scattered Dao Hui's thoughts.

The group of people were anxious, and their steps quickened a lot. After a while, they arrived in front of Lu Shangming's room. Master Yuan Ku saluted and said, "Amitabha, Lord Lu, please open the door."

Although he is the number one suspect at the moment, it can be seen that Yuan Ku is still extremely courteous. Lu Shangming can't help admiring secretly. The door opened.

Everyone rushed in, and Lu Shangming stood at the door. He had already prepared a speech, basically saying that he made such a bad move in order to save people's lives. Who knew that Master Yuan Ku was not angry, said a Buddha's name, turned around and said: "I was the one who wronged Lu benefactor."

Lu Shangming and Daohui felt strange, and hurried forward to see that there was no one on the bed, and there was no trace of Daoyuan.

Lu Shangming's first reaction was that Dao Hui's master Fang Neng could help secretly. He must have got the news to take Dao Yuan away. He didn't expect that the head of the Discipline Academy would be so informal. It's really interesting.

A monk shouted: "Abbot, even if Daoyuan is not here, maybe it is true as he said, Daoyuan has already been killed by him."

Master Yuan Ku frowned and said: "Don't speak nonsense, just like what I said before, if the person who stole the scriptures intends to kill Daoyuan, why should he run away with him? "

Daohui felt ashamed when she heard his words, she lowered her head and dared not speak.

Lu Shangming smiled and said: "Although this matter has nothing to do with me, I am willing to help. Let me find the source of Dao."

Master Yuan Ku said: "Since the benefactor is willing to help, it is the best, since there was a lot of trouble just now, the old monk will leave first."

Lu Shangming gave a "hmm" and watched everyone go out.

Master Yuan Ku only took a few steps away, when a disciple beside him couldn't help asking: "Abbot, this disciple clearly saw that benefactor Lu took away the source of Dao, he must have deliberately concealed it from us."

Yuan Ku was calm and calm, "You may not be mistaken, but it is also possible that Lu benefactor discovered that Dao Yuan was seriously injured and saved him."

Seeing his disciple nodding his head thoughtfully, he said, "You and I don't know the truth about this, but we must not make rash judgments and conclude that Master Lu is a villain. Gao Qiang, even the old monk is not sure of defeating him, if he intends to come here to make trouble, how can you survive?"

The disciple hurriedly said: "What the abbot taught is, how should the disciples deal with it next?"

Yuan thought hard for a while, and said, "Daohui is Fang Neng's disciple, I'm going to see Fang Neng, maybe he can give us an answer."

重遇

"Abbot, please come in quickly." Fang Neng was meditating in the meditation room at this time, when he suddenly saw the abbot visiting, he hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

Yuan Ku asked, "Do you know the background of that benefactor Lu?"

Fang Neng's heart skipped a beat, he wondered if the abbot had discovered something, so he had to test out: "He is a friend of Dao Hui, why did the abbot have such doubts?"

Yuan sighed bitterly: "To tell you the truth, my temple's most treasured "Washing the Marrow Sutra" has been stolen by thieves."

Fang Neng pretended to be surprised and said: "There is such a thing? The abbot will tell me the ins and outs in detail."
