One of the Eight Parts of Tianlong, Yuechen Fate

Shaoshi Mountain, outside Shaolin Temple.

In the early morning, the mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist, and the monk who swept the floor heard the knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw a young man in white standing outside the door.

In the meditation room in the back hall, one guest and one monk sit down separately.

"The benefactor has something important to tell me. I don't know why?"

"Thank you, Master, for taking the time to see me. If it wasn't an emergency, I wouldn't have dared to disturb you." Seeing Xuan Ku's benevolent brows and kind eyes, the young man in white clothed himself in a humble manner, and he didn't dare to be negligent. He is a friend of Daxia Qiao, and he is here for his business this time."

"The benefactor is Feng'er's friend?" Xuan Ku was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly showed joy, "I haven't seen him for a long time, and I miss him very much. Good rumors, An Dao must be having a hard time for him. Could it be that this young man came to ask me for help on his behalf?Immediately, he looked at the young man intently.

Seeing the concern in his eyes, the young man thought that this monk really cared about Qiao Feng, so he smiled slightly and said, "I think Master also knows what happened recently in the Beggar Gang. It is suspected that he is the murderer who killed Vice-Clan Leader Ma, what does the master think about this matter?"

Xuan Ku didn't participate in the incident at Yanmen Pass back then, so he didn't know the reason, but he was ordered by the abbot to teach Qiao Feng martial arts, and seeing him grow up, he naturally cared and loved him, so he sighed and said, "Khitan people and Han people are all human, so what's the difference? Feng'er was sometimes naughty when she was young, but she was definitely not a ruthless and treacherous person."

The young man nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, Master Qiao is straightforward and chivalrous by nature, and he was taught by the eminent monks of Shaolin since he was a child. How could he do such a thing? Someone really wants to frame him."

Xuan Ku asked, "Who wants to kill him?"

"It's a long story." The young man said, "Now there are more important things. Someone wants to kill Qiao Sanhuai, Mr. and Mrs. Xuanku, and you, and blame Master Qiao so that he can't gain a foothold in the Jianghu."

Xuan Ku let out an 'ah' and asked, "Who has such vicious thoughts to do this? How did the benefactor know about this?"

The young man sneered in his heart, thinking about meeting Qiao Feng and his father in the future, he also wanted to ask him why he hurt his son so much, and said, "I am in the Jianghu, and I have a way to find out the news, so it is inconvenient to tell Master, please forgive me .I came here this time to hope that the master can remember the relationship between master and apprentice and help him, so as to prevent Daxia Qiao from being framed by traitors again."

Xuan Ku secretly said that I taught Feng'er martial arts. Few people in the Jianghu knew about it, but this young man knew that he probably knew Feng'er. If what he said was true, I could help Feng'er. What did you do to me?Let's listen to what he wants me to do, and immediately ask.

"I've already figured out how to deal with it, but I just need Master to go down the mountain with me." The young man paused for a while and said, "I still need to invite Abbot Xuanci to go down the mountain together."

"I can go with you, but the abbot can't." Xuan Ku flatly refused, he didn't completely trust the young man, he only agreed because he cared about Qiao Feng, how could he take the abbot to take risks, if This is a trap, and he will not be able to absolve himself of the responsibility if he dies.

He didn't want to show precautions and doubts, so he said, "The Buddhist discipline is strict, monks are not allowed to go down the mountain without authorization, and the abbot is not allowed to leave the temple easily. I have violated the sect's rules by going down the mountain with you for Feng'er. How can I send the abbot away again?" Get involved."

The young man was not discouraged either, he smiled and said, "Then please ask Master to introduce the abbot for me, and I will go and talk to him myself."

Xuan Ku frowned and remained silent.

The young man said again, "Master, don't worry. If the abbot refuses to go down the mountain with me, how can I force him? If he is willing, then he has his own reasons, don't you think so?"

Xuan Ku was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was true, seeing the young man's determination, he sighed, "Forget it, I'll introduce it for you." He secretly thought that the young man must not be able to persuade the abbot to go down the mountain with him, it would be good to let him give up.

Now that the two of them arrived at Xuanci's room, the young man would talk about it in the future.

Abbot Xuanci is a tall and thin old monk, his expression is much more serious than Xuanku's, and there is some majesty between his brows. He listened to the young man's words, pondered for a while, and said, "If what the almsgiver said is true, I will do whatever you want with Xuanku and I." It’s okay to go down the mountain.”

Xuan Ku was greatly surprised when he heard the words, even the young man was obviously taken aback, thought for a while and said, "I can't prove to you what hasn't happened, and it will be too late when it happens. But I would like to On my life, I'm telling the truth."

Xuanci stared at him for a while, then shook his head and said, "The benefactor even conceals his own gender, how can we trust you?"

This old man is much smarter than Xuan Ku, Ye Nian thought to himself, stood up and bowed to the two of them, and said in a sincere tone, "It happened helplessly, I didn't mean to deceive, and I ask the two masters to forgive me." She said this When he spoke, he accidentally lowered his voice, and it was obvious that it was a woman speaking.

Xuan Ku said in surprise, "You..." Looking at Ye Nian, she looks very good, but her words and deeds are not half feminine, so he was not suspicious before.

"This matter is of great importance. I dare not tell others, and I have no way to inform the two masters, so I made such a bad plan." Ye Nian saw that the two looked unhappy, and knew that Shaolin Temple did not allow women to enter, so he really committed a crime. Their taboos forced them to clean up their words and continued, "It is said in the Buddhist scriptures that all living beings are equal, and saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Although I am a woman, I am also one of the living beings, and I want to save the lives of many people. It's really justifiable, and the Buddha would not blame him if he thought about it."

Xuan Ku wondered, "Why do you say you want to save many people's lives?"

"Grandmasters, think about it, if that person succeeds in his scheme, is there still room for Qiao Feng in this martial arts world?"

The two monks thought for a moment and shook their heads.

"At that time, Qiao Feng will definitely be forced to become the enemy of the entire martial arts world. He has been wronged greatly, so how can he be willing to be captured without a fight? With his martial arts skills, there will be bloody storms in the Jianghu. I don't know how much People will die from it."

Xuan Ku and Xuan Ci looked at each other, clasped their hands together and said, "Amitabha."

Xuanci said, "The benefactor has good thoughts, such an ending is not what people in my Buddhist sect would like to see. But the benefactor Qiao is a descendant of Khitan, I'm afraid people in the martial arts world can't tolerate him now."

Ye Nian asked, "Does the abbot feel that being a Khitan is his fault?"

Xuanci said, "Of course not, it's just..." He couldn't say what it was.

"It's just that during the Battle of Yanmen Pass, his biological parents were killed, and he was raised by the Han people as a baby. It’s impossible to have half the trust.”

Xuanci trembled, looked at Ye Nian and said, "You... how do you know?"

Ye Nian said lightly, "I was also there on the day of the civil turmoil in the Beggar Clan, and I heard what Master Zhiguang said personally."

Xuanci closed his eyes slightly, opened them after a long while and said, "Forget it, what has been planted by past causes should have this karmic reward. I will go down the mountain with you."

"Brother Abbot..." Xuan Ku cried out.

Xuanci waved his hands and said, "Junior Brother, don't need to talk too much. In a quiet place of my Buddhist school, how can I really escape the disputes in the rivers and lakes. I learned martial arts for the purpose of expanding the Dharma. I learned from the Buddha's great compassion and compassion to save sentient beings from suffering. How can you sit idly by."

Xuan Ku sighed slightly, and said, "Brother Abbot taught you that." Turning to Ye Nian, he said, "Benefactor, how did you know that I won't ask any more questions, but what needs to be done to go down the mountain, please explain clearly."

Ye Nian nodded and said, "This is what it should be." He just sat down.

An hour later, she walked out of the hall, looked at the blue sky above her head, and breathed a sigh of relief. Monk Xuanci really felt guilty for Qiao Feng. Er Niang's affair was used as a threat to force him to go down the mountain, but he didn't expect him to agree so easily.

Rubbing her eyes, there was a faint blue shadow in her eyes.After separating from Qiao Feng, she rushed from Wuxi to Dengfeng overnight. She shortened the original five or six-day itinerary by half, and then made repeated arrangements. Now the most difficult move has been made, and she felt it when she relaxed a little. tired.

"Benefactor, you are going in the wrong direction, the left is the way out."

Ye Nian turned around, looked at the little novice who was following behind, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Master Qingsong." Suddenly remembered something, almost forgot, and hurriedly said, "Master Qingsong, I have something to ask you to do."

The little novice remembered what the master had explained earlier, clasped his hands together and said, "If you have something to do, just ask the benefactor."

Ye Nian then whispered what he wanted to do, and told him not to tell others, the little novice nodded in agreement.When the two walked to the front courtyard, the little novice suddenly said to one person, "Senior Brother Zhiqing, why are you still here? Brother Zhiyuan was looking for you everywhere just now and told you to go to the Bodhi Courtyard."

The person in front raised his head, and Ye Nian saw that it was a fat monk with a pale yellow complexion, but he didn't pay attention, and when he saw the person, he agreed, "I'll go right away." He walked past the two of them.

When Ye Nian passed by that person, he smelled a faint fragrance in his nose, which was not the sandalwood in the temple. He couldn't help but glanced back, and heard the little novice talking to himself, "Brother Zhiqing these days The sun looks a little weird, and I don’t know what’s wrong.”
