"Hey, Brother Ma, look, there's a tall tower in front of you. It's so beautifully built."
"Look there is a big incense burner there... My dear, this is the first time I have seen such a big incense burner. It must weigh several thousand kilograms."
"And those towering trees, they grow so tall and straight."
"No wonder so many people come to Shaolin Temple every year. The scenery here is so good."
…
The two of them chatted and walked around the Shaolin Temple.
Unknowingly, the two of them wandered to the back hall. At this time, two monks wearing monk robes stopped Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang: "The back hall is where the monks of Shaolin Temple live. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Please forgive me."
"
"The apse is where the monks live." Ma Xiaoyao looked up and saw that the apse was obscured by high walls, and he could only vaguely see a few towering buildings and a few towering trees.
"Yes." The two monks nodded: "The two donors should go visit other places."
"We are not here for a visit." Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "We are here to see the abbot of your temple."
"You want to see our abbot?" The two monks suddenly showed alert expressions: "Who are you? Why do you want to see our abbot?"
"Oh, my name is Ma Xiaoyao, and his name is Lei Dazhuang. We are both national civil servants. We need to discuss some official matters with the abbot of your temple." Ma Xiaoyao said politely.
"I'm sorry! Our abbot is in retreat and it's not convenient to see guests." The two monks said in a cold tone.
"Retreat? What retreat?" Ma Xiaoyao didn't understand.
"Retreat is to close yourself in a room. Every day you simply drink some water, eat some simple meals, and meditate most of the time." The two monks explained patiently: "Our abbot often retreats to meditate on Buddhist scriptures...
"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "What, how long will it take for your abbot to end the retreat?"
"We don't know about this. Anyway, the time will not be short." The two monks shook their heads.
"Then what...since your abbot is in retreat, who will take care of the daily work of Shaolin Temple?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"It will be under the auspices of Bodhidharma Academy." The two monks did not hide it.
"Then can I meet the host of Bodhidharma Academy?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up: "I really have something very important..."
"This..." The two monks hesitated for a moment: "Please wait a moment, we will ask for permission to see if the host of Bodhidharma Academy is willing to see you." At this point, one of the monks took out a mobile phone and started
Make a call.
Ma Xiaoyao was immediately stunned: "What? Do you still have mobile phones?"
"Why can't we have mobile phones?" The monk who was not on the phone rolled his eyes: "Although we are monks and usually live a secluded life, we have not derailed the society. We also use high-tech products outside.
Yes, not only mobile phones, we also have computers and TVs in the room."
"I see, I understand, I understand." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
"Wait a moment, the host of Bodhidharma Academy will come out to see you soon." The monk who called put his phone away, then raised his head and said to Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Sorry to trouble you."
After waiting for about ten minutes, the heavy iron door was slowly opened, and three monks wearing cassocks walked out. The leading monk was tall and powerful, and he walked with great momentum. He looked about five years old.
Around ten years old.
"Disciple pays homage to the Master of Bodhidharma Academy!" The two gatekeeper monks hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The leading monk waved his hand casually: "Get up."
"Thank you, host!" The two gatekeeper monks stood up straight and then stepped aside.
The leading monk looked Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang up and down: "You are the ones who want to see me?"
"Are you the host of Bodhidharma Academy?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Yes, I am Wuwen, the host of Bodhidharma Academy." The leading monk nodded.
"Hello, Master Wuwen." Ma Xiaoyao greeted politely: "My name is Ma Xiaoyao, and his name is Lei Dazhuang. We are both state servants. We came to Shaolin Temple today to ask for a meeting with the abbot. Who knows the abbot?
The master is in retreat, so we seek to see the unknown master..."
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. Brother Abbot has gone into seclusion, and now I am in charge of all matters of Shaolin Temple." The unknown monk said calmly.
"Well... what about that, can we go in and talk about it?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Let's talk here. I'm very busy and don't have much time to entertain you." Monk Wuwen said impatiently.
The corner of Ma Xiaoyao's mouth twitched imperceptibly: "Okay, let's talk outside... Well, that's the case. We have encountered a little trouble recently and want to ask the disciples of your temple to come out to help. Oh, we won't
If the disciples of your temple help you for nothing, we will pay you a high reward..."
"That's it?" Monk Wuwen frowned.
"Yes, that's it." Ma Xiaoyao smiled and nodded: "I know that the disciples of your temple are all martial arts masters, so..."
"I will give you a clear answer now." Monk Wuwen waved his hand: "We are not willing to help."
"Why?" Ma Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows: "If you think the remuneration is too low, we can discuss it again..."
"It's not a question of remuneration." Monk Wuwen shook his head: "It's a question of principle... Our disciples in Shaolin Temple have indeed started practicing martial arts since they were young, but they are all indifferent by nature and don't like to go out and walk, let alone fight with others.
, so... you'd better please come back." After saying that, the Wuwen monk turned around and left.
"Wait!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted hurriedly.
"Go back, we will never agree to help." Monk Wuwen not only did not stop, but also quickened his pace and left.
"Master Wuwen, please stay, I have something else to say!" Ma Xiaoyao raised his foot and wanted to catch up, but was stopped by two gatekeeper monks.
"Donor, please come back. Our host has made it very clear. There will be no results if you continue to pester." The two gatekeepers said coldly.
"I want to see your abbot!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted: "I want to talk to the abbot face to face!"
The two gatekeepers shook their heads: "We just told you very clearly that our abbot is currently in retreat to study Buddhist scriptures and has no time to see you... To put it bluntly, even if our abbot finally receives you, he will not have time to see you.
I will promise to send disciples to help you."
"How can you be so cold-blooded! The country is in trouble, and as members of China, you have the responsibility and obligation to help!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted.
"Have you said enough? If you have said enough, please leave!" the two gatekeepers said coldly.
"I must see the abbot today." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao was about to force his way inside.
"Bold!" The two gatekeeper monks immediately grabbed Ma Xiaoyao's shoulders.
"Whoosh!"
Lei Dazhuang, who was standing on the side, immediately rushed over, shook his hands into fists, and punched the two gatekeepers.
"Bang bang!"
The two janitor monks were thrown straight away and hit the ground hard, unable to get up for a long time. They stared at Lei Dazhuang with wide eyes, full of horror... They never dreamed that Lei Dazhuang could be so powerful.
"Let's go! Go in and see the abbot!" Ma Xiaoyao stepped forward and broke into the back hall.
Lei Dazhuang hurriedly followed.
"Someone broke into the temple! Come quickly... someone broke into the temple!!!" The two gatekeeper monks immediately shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
More than a dozen figures rushed from a distance and arrived in front of the gate in an instant. Then without saying a word, they raised their fists and attacked Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang.
Lei Dazhuang pushed Ma Xiaoyao aside, waving his big fists and hitting a dozen monks.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Dang Dang Dang..."
"Boom, boom, boom..."
…
Lei Dazhuang fought fiercely with more than a dozen monks. Even though Lei Dazhuang was just one person, he did not lose at all.
At this moment, more than a dozen monks rushed to the scene after hearing the news. Among them was the monk Wuwen who had just left the Bodhidharma Academy. Seeing that Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang actually dared to break into the back hall, Wuwen could not
Wen monk was very angry.
"Huh?" Monk Wuwen looked at Lei Dazhuang in surprise: "This guy is so talented, he can actually withstand the siege of more than a dozen disciples... It's a pity that he hasn't developed any internal skills..."
"Get out of here!" Lei Dazhuang twisted his body, kicked out two quick kicks, and instantly kicked two monks away. Then he punched two more, and two more monks were knocked away... Lei Dazhuang clenched his hands into fists.
, using a wide range of moves to defeat the remaining monks...
Seeing more than a dozen monks being defeated by Lei Dazhuang alone, Ma Xiaoyao suddenly showed a trace of suspicion in his eyes. The disciples of Shaolin Temple didn't look good either? If this is the true strength of Shaolin Temple, then it is really too great.
Disappointing...
"Get back, everyone!" Monk Wuwen roared angrily.
"Whoa!"
The dozen or so monks who were besieging Lei Dazhuang immediately stopped their attack and all retreated to one side.
Lei Dazhuang did not pursue him. He stood straight on the spot with his head held high and a look of disdain on his face: "I thought the disciples of Shaolin Temple were so powerful? It turns out they are nothing more than that!"
The dozen or so monks who were defeated by Lei Dazhuang immediately blushed and had thick necks. They wished they could turn into ants and find a crack in the ground to burrow in. It was really embarrassing for them to be thrown into their grandma's house today.
"They are just the most ordinary disciples of Shaolin Temple. Even if we defeat them, it will be no big deal." Monk Wuwen said in an indifferent tone.
Lei Dazhuang stretched out his hand and pointed at the unknown monk: "Stop talking nonsense here! If you have the ability, just fight with me!"
"You are not qualified to fight with me." Monk Wuwen said calmly: "Huiping, go and teach this guy a lesson."
"Yes." A monk in his thirties walked out of the crowd, stretched out his finger and hooked Lei Dazhuang: "Come on, let me walk with you a few moves, so that you can see how powerful the Kung Fu of the Shaolin Temple is.
