Chapter 94: Elders of the Ten Dynasties (1)

Zhiku stared at Mingwu for a moment, and suddenly his face became solemn, and Heshi asked: "May I ask where the Buddhist temple is from Monk Mingwu? Which eminent monk taught you the Tianleiyin Kung Fu?"

"Master is a wandering monk, and the young monk has now returned to Qingliang Temple." But he didn't want to cause trouble to Baoguang Temple, so he told the truth but did not reveal the temple where he was ordained.

When Wen Yi saw Zhiku's expression, he guessed that even Zhiku didn't know that the 'Tianleiyin' could break the Hundred Tribulations Fist, but he was also secretly surprised.

But after thinking about it, after Yan Zhongchang was injured, Master Jue inadvertently noticed that the "Heavenly Thunder Sound" was more powerful than the "Lion's Roar" and could break the catastrophe. He told Luo Xiaoyao and others about the guess, which led Luo Xiaoyao to find

When I arrived at Qingliang Temple, I discovered that he was the protector...

The wandering monk who taught Mingwu the Great Wrathful Fist and Heavenly Thunder Sound techniques thought that Mingwu had a predestined relationship with the Buddha, so he went to Baoguang Temple to teach him. However, he knew that this was a destiny.

The Dharma is incomprehensible, and Wen Yi can't help but say it in harmony: "It is clear that the eminent monks without masters have known and complained for many years before the 'Heavenly Thunder Sound' Dharma appeared in the world. Our Buddha's compassionate path is smooth, why should Master Zhiku hinder his knowledge..."

"

"Hey, what can the 'Tian Leiyin' technique do if it appears in this world..." As he spoke, the Zhiku Qi machine moved with the sound, and Mingwu felt that a Qi machine with the force of collapsing mountains and seas hit his chest out of thin air.

As soon as he thought about it, his soul suddenly came out of his body, volleyed from top to bottom, then stepped back with his left foot and met with his right fist.

In the blink of an eye, the Zhiku Fist Gang suddenly separated from him. The Yuan Shen Qi Ji used by Mingwu suddenly hit nothing, and the dispersed Gang Qi passed by his side, spinning like the wind, and surrounded him from all directions.

Ming Wu became nervous and quickly gathered his moves to protect himself.

The Gang Qi was like a fish net, tightening and tightening. When it came into contact with the protective Qi machine, Ming Wu suddenly shouted "Broken", only to hear a muffled "chu tu" sound, and the fist gang dispersed in response.

At the same time, Zhiku's body moved, but he punched Wenyi two feet away. However, Wenyi did not resist. After being hit by Zhiku's fist, his body followed the punch like a piece of paper.

The air flow rushes towards the drifting direction.

Seeing this, Mingwu's spirit of death erupted, and he suddenly punched Zhiku on the back. At the same time, his soul used a move to volley down towards Zhiku's head. In the lightning flash, Zhiku turned sideways and crossed his elbow, with his right elbow against Mingwu's right fist, and with his left

The fist struck the sky, and as Mingwuyuan Shen's consciousness was shaken, Zhiku's body rushed forward and flew five feet away.

Ming Wu was afraid that he would attack Wen Yi, and then hit him with another punch. Suddenly, his energy was like a violent wind whistling and whistling like snow, and his energy was like an angry wave crashing on the shore.

Two feet away, Qi Ji had already struck in front of Zhiku.

Zhiku stepped forward with his right foot, bent his right knee, leaned forward, and punched out both fists. When their fists were ten feet away from each other, the two Gang Qi collided with each other, and there was a "bang" sound like a thunderous explosion.

, Ming Wu's blood was surging and he kicked his feet back, taking six steps before he stood still.

"Amitabha, 'The King of Ming is not angry, the King of Diamonds is not born.' The old monk finally understood the power of the 'Great Wrathful Fist'." Zhi, who was also shocked by the backlash, took a step back and said bitterly, his words seemed to be in admiration, but his expression showed a sneer.

Knowing that he was laughing at what he had just said, "Why is my Buddha so merciful?" he couldn't help but smile bitterly for a moment. He was annoyed and tortured and used the power of his soul to attack himself, while he used his physical body and energy to attack Wen Yi, frightening and angry him.

Underneath, the boxing intention of the "Great Wrath Fist" was brought into full play.

Zhi Kutu looked sideways to the left, facing the empty left side, and said: "What a 'Zen Forgetting Magic', good, good..." Before he finished speaking, his body was already rushing towards the hillside forest,

Gone like lightning.

Mingwu was surprised to see Zhiku saying "Okay" repeatedly to the air. Worried about Wen Yi's safety, he quickly rushed to Wen Yi, who was more than ten feet away. Wen Yi lowered his head and closed his eyes.

Standing, his face was pale but expressionless, and he was horrified, "Master..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a slight muffled sound, and Wen Yi took a step back. His face suddenly turned red, his eyes opened, and he covered his right chest with his hand. He looked at Mingming with an indifferent expression, his face showed relief, and he shook his head and sighed.

: "If my soul hadn't meditated in time, something might have happened to me... This 'Leaking Power' is indeed the best magical power in the world. It was able to hurt me when my soul returned to my body..."

It turns out that Zhiku was annoyed by Wen Yi's constant persuasion, and in a rage, he used his "Shenjingtong" Yuanshen to attack Mingwu. According to Mingwu's cultivation level, it was enough to deal with the power of his Yuanshen, but when Zhiku made his move, it was already

He had a plan in his mind, and when Ming Wu made him greet him, he used the "Luo Jingtong" technique to divide the fist energy flow and surrounded Ming Wu.

After withdrawing his Qi machine to protect himself, at this moment, Zhiku attacked Wen Yi.

And Wen Yixiu has the Buddhist method "Zen Forgetting Magic", which can cause the soul to leave the body instantly. It is even more mysterious than the golden body state. The Yuanying person's soul and elixir spirit leave the body. The only shortcoming is that it cannot cause harm to others.

.

He knew in his heart that his realm was not as good as Zhiku, and he would definitely suffer losses if he resisted, so he used the "Zen Forgetting Magic" in an instant, and his soul left the body. At that time, the physical body without a soul in the body escaped into an ethereal state, and when it encountered Yang, it became Yang.

When it encounters yin, it becomes yin, but it floats away like the wind along with the fist's energy.

Zhiruo felt that his punch seemed to hit the air, with no impact. He was also a scholar of heaven and man. He immediately knew that Wen Yixiu had the "Zen-Forgetting Magic", so he pulled back halfway and just broke through.

Go to Mingwu's attack.

And he is a practitioner of the "Leaking Out" method. He also found out where Wen Yi's soul was. When he spoke, he secretly used "Leaking Out" to cover up a qi machine. When Wen Yi's soul returned,

When he hit him, he was suddenly injured.

"Then Master..."

"There is nothing serious about me. You don't have to worry about it." Wen Yi smiled slightly and looked towards the forest on the hillside. "If I had been late for two breaths and returned to my body, he would have been hundreds of feet away.

The concealed energy will also dissipate, and I will not be caught by him. Alas, this wisdom is extraordinary...

Sensing the location of Lao Na's departed soul, he spoke to me, forcing me to feel fear, and then left to lure me back to my body... Fortunately, the Qi hidden inside could not last long, and it was very weak at that time, so it only allowed me to

Qi and blood are not smooth."

"Good, good." Ming Wufang understood the reason for Zhiku's words to the air. He hesitated as if thinking, and said: "Then he can sense the location of Master's soul, so why doesn't he attack..."

"Hehe, but remember when I met Master Chu that day, what happened at the Shenyu Mountain Temple... Lao Na's soul can think a hundred feet away. Even if his cultivation is powerful, he can't be faster than his divine thoughts?"

"Then...why is Master afraid?"

"Fool, if he takes away his body, I will become a lonely ghost, haha..."

Ming Wu Pore froze, bowed his head and said, "That's good, that's good."

Wen Yi sighed, "If he hadn't used the 'Leaking through' method several times and consumed his true energy, I'm afraid he wouldn't have left so easily... Mingwu, if he encounters Zhiku in the future, he must do it

It’s better to be careful.”

Thinking of Zhiku's all-pervasive "Leaking Power" magical power, Ming Wu nodded with lingering fear.

Wen Yi turned around and looked at the cliff next to the pool, "I didn't expect that he could also use the Taoist method of returning earth veins, which is really powerful."

Recalling that Wen Yi once said that the two of them had come a step earlier and missed what Zhiku was planning, my mind moved and he said: "Zhiku led the auspicious energy into the cliff...what is his plan?"

"It seems that Zhiku found the real dragon vein three years ago before the celestial phenomena appeared and before the auspicious energy descended..." Wen Yi looked at the water pool and muttered: "And where this water pool is located

He thought it was the dragon vein of a certain court in the past thousands of years... He used the method of returning to the moon to find this waste vein, guiding the spiritual energy in the valley to gather here, and misleading others to find it.

But he didn't make this pool of water gather spirits, making it look like a treasure place for gathering spirits, and making it impossible for people to see the truth. Instead, people mistakenly thought that this place was indeed the location of the true bloodline, but it was just hidden by others.

He just used his magical power to cover it up... This gave him time to cover up the real layout of the dragon's veins."

"Do you have time?" Mingwu was confused for a moment.

"The Dragon Veins of National Destiny cannot cover up its aura in just a moment... Even if the 'Luojietong' method can follow the energy of yin and yang, see everything, and cover everything, it will take a while."

"Then why did he want to draw out this auspicious energy at this time?" Ming Wu looked at the purple energy that was still looming on the cliff, and was puzzled.

"I think he can't find a guardian now, so he will make arrangements to attract people who are interested in the location of the dragon vein... just like you and me, and then wait for the opportunity to look for clues from the strangers to find the guardian."

"But...why is this auspicious energy in the middle of the cliff? If it weren't for the 'Sky Eyes' technique, ordinary people who look at the aura would not be able to see it. There is no aura in this pool of water..."

Wen Yi knew the meaning of his words and smiled, "Although this place is a waste vein, it is not easy to fill it with spiritual energy all at once, and the color of the vegetation here will be immediately different from that of other vegetation in the mountains.

People see flaws.

So Zhiku found a way from top to bottom, following the veins on the cliff to introduce spiritual energy... I thought it would stop when it reaches a depth of one or two feet on the surface of the pool. When someone comes to find this pool,

There is spirituality on the surface of the water, and one would think that it was because of the new emperor's accession to the throne that the hidden dragon veins appeared.

And he can secretly track down these people in order to find clues and find out where the guardians are."

Mingwu knew that Wenyi's judgment was reasonable, Heshi chanted the Buddha's name, and asked: "Then will he continue to guide spiritual energy into the pool now?"

Wen Yi walked out of the valley, saying as he walked: "Maybe I won't be hit by you and me now... but no matter what, he will still be here to observe secretly."

"But..." Ming Wu was startled when he heard the words and hesitated, "Disciple, if you don't understand something, please ask Master for advice."

"What's the matter? Tell me." Wen Yi said with a smile.

"In this world, the Buddhists have the magical power of 'Heavenly Eyes, All Outflows', which can detect the difficulties of the Buddha. Who else outside the Buddhist family... can detect this aura that destroys the Buddha."

But thinking that Zhi Ku would come back, Ming Wuzi guessed that he would have to find clues about the protector from the person who saw the aura that destroyed the Buddha. And if the aura was not led into the pool, even if there was hope for the aura in the Sitian Prison

A person skilled in the art may not be able to detect the spiritual energy in the cliff, so he was suspicious and asked for advice.

Wen Yi was startled for a moment, but he understood what Ming Ming meant by asking no questions, and said in a deep voice: "In addition to the two great magical powers of Buddhism that can reveal the aura of disaster in our Buddha, Taoism also has great supernatural powers that can spy out... It's just that Taoists have never

I interfered in the Buddha's Tribulation, so I didn't talk to you about it at the beginning."

"But these legal tribulations are all related to the emperor. When the emperor dies, the court is in turmoil, affecting the people. Taoism also enters the world to help the people. Why is it indifferent?"

But I think Taoists also have the idea of ​​​​saving the world's common people as their own duty. If the emperor dies due to the Buddha's tribulation, the world will be in chaos and the people will suffer, so he will ask questions when he understands everything.

Wen Yi glanced at Ming Wu in surprise, thinking that he was surprised that Ming Wu would ask such a question. He walked slowly, as if in deep thought, and said after a long time: "I have also thought about what you asked, but if

As you said, Taoists also have the belief to help the world and save the people, but they are very capable people and do not interfere... maybe it is because they do not want to cause a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, or maybe it is the reason why "Ping Long Recognition" has been lost."

"Master, is this the Taoist method of 'Ping Long Recognition'? Can we get a glimpse of the aura that destroys the Buddha?"

"Yes, "Ping Long recognizes" the beginning of Yin and Yang's spiritual energy and the end of the changes in the five elements. It is the art of looking at the great success of Qi. Even if the movement of Qi to destroy the Buddha is a secret of heaven, its Qi cannot escape beyond Yin and Yang, so it is naturally hidden.

But the great skill of "Ping Long Recognition"... I just don't know who in the family has the skill?"

Wen Yi paused for a moment, as if he was thinking for a moment, and then continued in a slow voice: "However, the art of changing the earth's veins and qi comes from Taoism. If Zhiku uses this art to create false images, he may provoke Taoists to interfere in this matter.

But I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse for Buddhism..."

Mingwu frowned slightly when he saw him speaking, and he also guessed in his heart what Wen Yi was worried about. Judging from the Shaolin Temple's closure three years ago, there must be many people in Buddhism who know about the Buddha's suffering.

They are afraid that the Buddha will suffer disaster and that the true scriptures and Dharma will be destroyed. With the worry about gain and loss, they allow people to help eliminate calamity. If Taoists interfere, they may use the excuse that Buddhist affairs do not allow outsiders to interfere.

people, thus causing a fight between Buddha and Taoism.

Mingwu, who had already left Qinglong Mountain, looked back at the mountain peaks behind him and said, "Where in this mountain will the real dragon vein be?"

"Under the cover of Zhiku's 'Leaking Tong' method, it is difficult to spy." Wen Yi hesitated: "Mingwu, when Na Luo, the young layman, went to Fangzhou, did he say when he would return to the academy?

?”

"I never said it, but I won't be going back soon and will leave the academy with him... There are also a few academy students who have heard from the young layman that they want to go to Yaowang Valley to visit acquaintances."

After hearing this, Wen Yi thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Then you and I will go to Fairy Lake first."

"Fairy Lake?" He asked clearly.

"That's right, now we should explain to the layman Chu about this Buddha's calamity, maybe he already knew it but he didn't know it... and used unknown magical powers to make the aura of protecting the Tao in the little layman's body invisible."

Mingwu was startled and doubtful for a while, and when he thought about it carefully, he realized that Wen Yi's inference was very likely. He thought that maybe as Wen Yi said, Chu Nanfeng had already known that Luo Xiaoyao was a protector of the Tao, and secretly granted him magical powers and magic.

, only after the new emperor ascended the throne, Luo Xiaoyao's protective aura disappeared.

****

After the death of Guo Wei, King Guo Rong of the Jin Dynasty was ordered to ascend the throne. Emperor Liu Min of the Northern Han Dynasty took advantage of the fact that Guo Rong had just been established and the morale of the army was not stable, so he united with the Liao soldiers and sent troops south to attack Zhou Ting's Luzhou via the road, intending to capture Bianjing and Kaifeng in one fell swoop.

In the evening of this day, in front of the gate of Zhongshu Ling Feng Dao's residence on the West Street of Bianjing City, three miles away from the Kaifeng government office, an official sedan stopped. The attendant Feng's housekeeper opened the curtain of the sedan, bowed and said: "

Lord Guanglu, the Taishi Mansion has arrived."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiubai got down from the sedan chair, glanced at the Feng Mansion's golden plaque, nodded, and followed the Feng Mansion's housekeeper into the mansion with suspicion in his heart.

After Guo Rong ascended the throne, he originally wanted to grant Jiang Qiubai the title of Prince Shaobao, but Jiang Qiubai refused on the grounds that he had not made any achievements. Guo Rong had no choice but to confer Jiang Qiubai the position of Guanglu doctor instead, and only accepted the order.

The emperor is a man who acts on his own convenience. Although his position is a false one, his status is respected.

When they arrived at the hall and courtyard of the mansion, they saw an old man in his seventies, dressed in purple uniforms and with a thin face coming out of the hall. It was Zhongshu Ling Feng Dao.

Jiang Qiubai stepped forward to greet him: "Student has met the Grand Master."

"Haha, Mr. Jiang is the emperor's master. How can I dare to be so self-effacing?" As he spoke, his left hand lightly touched Jiang Qiubai's arm, and his right hand greeted him, leading Jiang Qiubai into the hall to take a seat. After the servant served tea, he retreated.

He said to the left and right: "I heard that Madam is ill, but I wonder what's going on now? I haven't sent anyone to the mansion to ask about the Marquis, so I hope Mr. Jiang won't be surprised."

"How dare you, student? My wife just suffered from an ordinary cold, nothing serious. Thank you, Grand Master, for your concern."

Feng Dao stroked his white beard and smiled slightly, "I have bothered you to invite you here today because we have something to discuss... The Holy Lord wants to lead the expedition in person, does he know that?"

The position of Guanglu doctor does not require him to meet with the imperial court. If Jiang Qiubai had not suffered from the cold in the past two days, he would have gone to the imperial court to meet the holy emperor. As for Guo Rongyujia's personal expedition, he has already arrived from the time of application today.

Cheng Zheng, who was visiting his wife at home, learned this from his mouth. Not long after Cheng Zheng left, Feng Dao sent someone to invite her.

On the way to Feng Mansion, Jiang Qiubai also suspected that Feng Dao's invitation might be related to Guo Rong's personal expedition. As expected, Feng Daoluo asked directly after a brief greeting. After hearing what was said, he nodded.

"Then I advised the Holy One in court today not to go on a personal expedition...did Mr. Jiang hear that?"

Jiang Qiubai also learned the details of the court meeting from Cheng Zheng's mouth. He also knew that Feng Dao's sharp words in admonishing Guo Rong made Guo Rong angry and left the court. However, when Feng Dao asked, he did not dare to answer clearly.

He cupped his hands and said, "Students would like to hear the details..."

Feng Dao smiled, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of fragrant tea, and said slowly: "I bluntly said that the Holy Emperor is not as good as Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty... What do you think, sir?"

Jiang Qiubai had never expected that he would ask him such a question, but he was shocked. Knowing that the old man in front of him, who had lived through four dynasties and ten emperors, had hidden secrets in everything he said, he did not dare to answer randomly. He raised his hands and said: "Student's perspective

It’s superficial, I hope the Grand Master can give me some advice.”

Feng Dao glanced at Jiang Qiubai meaningfully, then turned to the courtyard well, staring at the lit stone lanterns in the courtyard, seeming to be thoughtful, and after a moment he muttered: "The late emperor first lurked, and raised troops from Yedu to Beijing...

…At that time, I knelt down and worshiped me as a subordinate, and I accepted it calmly. However, the late emperor immediately knew that the time had not come. When the soldiers in Chanzhou tore up the yellow flag and embraced him, he dared to proclaim himself emperor and establish a dynasty with his military spirit strong..."

Emperor Yin of the Later Han Dynasty listened to the rumors, killed Guo Wei and Chai Rong's family, and forced Guo Wei to rebel. Later, Guo Wei succeeded the Han Dynasty and established the Zhou Dynasty. Jiang Qiubai also knew about this, but he didn't know the details, and he thought Feng Dao

When this matter is mentioned now, there must be a profound meaning, and it means listening attentively.

"At that time, many Zhenjie in the Central Plains were on the sidelines, and the only person who could compete with the late emperor and be justified... was the current puppet Han emperor Liu Min. I knew that the late emperor was on the string. If they did not obey the military spirit, those vassal and town Jiedu who were eager to support and perform meritorious services would

You will definitely be disappointed, and if you change your mind again at that time, you will suffer the consequences.

And if Liu Min's army east of Hedong was not appeased and the defense was not deployed in time, it would be a great disadvantage to the late emperor. Therefore, the late emperor suggested that he first appoint Liu Min's son as emperor, make the army east of Hedong retreat, and then deploy troops to resist defense. Fortunately, the late emperor was wise and the great event was planned.

"

As Jiang Qiubai knew, when Guo Wei wanted to proclaim himself emperor, Feng Dao dissuaded him and gave up. The plan to support Liu Min's son as emperor was indeed proposed by Feng Dao.

But later Liu Min's son was killed, and Guo Wei took his place and proclaimed himself the emperor. Everyone thought that Guo Wei was greedy for the throne. Unexpectedly, Feng Dao secretly conspired first. Then he heard that Feng Dao had ruined his reputation and told the secret.

Jiang Qiubai felt a chill in his heart, but he guessed that he must have a hint and couldn't help but think about it.

He also heard Feng Dao say: "The late Emperor Shengming worked hard for the past three years, and the people of our Central Plains have been able to achieve peace. However, the weakness of the vassal town's self-esteem in supporting troops is still there, and there is no shortage of arrogant soldiers and capable generals. Most of them regard the soldiers and horses of the vassal towns as their own soldiers."

Over the years, he has either raised armies to rebel, or taken advantage of the chaos to kill his lord, and has been plotting for glory. Do you think, sir, that the Holy Emperor can be compared to Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty?" The conversation changed, and he suddenly asked Jiang Qiubai.

Looking at Feng Dao, whose eyes were suddenly sparkling, Jiang Qiubai's heart trembled. Even though he was extremely skilled in martial arts, he was frightened into a cold sweat by Feng Dao's words. He hesitated and said: "Then what Grand Master means is...

Isn’t the military morale gathered now?”

"The world does not belong to one family and one surname, and there are people who have their own plans. At present, the four states of Qin, Fen, Cheng, and Qin in the northwest are still in the hands of Hou Shu, and in the south of the Yangtze River, the Khitan is watching from the north and south, and the emperor will personally conquer... If the army is defeated,

The Central Plains was in chaos. I said that the Emperor was not as good as Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. This did not mean that he was not as talented and general as Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, but that he did not have as many loyal and good generals as Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty."

Jiang Qiubai already understood what Feng Dao meant, and was secretly shocked: "Then why didn't the Grand Master point it out to the Holy One?"

Feng Dao's eyes flashed in surprise, and he smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew that although Jiang Qiubai was good at both civil and military affairs, he was not familiar with the dangers of court affairs. He sighed and said: "It is not that there are no people in the army who are loyal to protect the country, not to mention that the Holy Emperor immediately answered me.

There are many good soldiers and generals in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they can destroy the hypocrites with overwhelming force. If I say it clearly, I think it will hurt the morale or arouse the suspicion of the generals, so I can only remind the Holy One...

When I heard that the Holy One mentioned that our armies and horses in the Great Zhou Dynasty were as powerful as Mount Tai, I took the opportunity to say that this mountain may not be moldable. Unfortunately, the Holy One thought that I was sarcastic and showed an angry look on my face... I thought that I was an old man and couldn't bear to blame him.

Then he folded his sleeves and walked toward the court."

Jiang Qiubai smiled bitterly in his heart, but he knew that although Guo Rong was wise and powerful, his character was a bit impatient. Feng Dao was so angry that he walked away with a wave of his sleeves.

He thought that as far as he knew, he had never heard that when the court was discussing the strategy of resisting the enemy, some ministers bluntly said in front of all the officials that the emperor was inferior to others and that the troops and horses in the court were weaker than the enemy without being punished. Guo Rong was furious.

, I did not blame Feng Dao for his disrespectful and disturbing military morale remarks, which is enough to show my respect for him... Thinking of this, I was deeply gratified and admired Guo Rong's benevolent and wise style.
