After Li Jiang and Xiao Lin finished handing over, they separated from the crowd and walked into the circle.
Zhang Wuji felt as if he had found a savior when he saw Li Jiang coming, and said hurriedly: "Brother Li, my foster father has given up his martial arts and wants to become a monk."
Oh, Li Jiang understands. Although he has changed many things, he cannot change people's hearts. Xie Xun has still reached this point.
Xie Xun also heard Li Jiang's voice, and felt inexplicably frightened. He was a lawless person who would do whatever he said. So Xie Xun endured the pain after finishing the exercises, raised his hand with difficulty, pointed in the direction of Li Jiang, and said: "Consultant Li,
Being a monk is my own business and has nothing to do with you, so please don’t meddle in your own business.”
Li Jiang smiled at the corner of his mouth, walked towards him step by step, and said: "King Xie, how can it be your own business to become a monk? First of all, you are a member of Mingjiao, right? You were in front of Mingzun back then.
I have sworn an oath to never betray my religion, so what does it mean to join Xiaolin now?"
Xie Xun hesitated and said: "If Mingjiao allows you to withdraw from the religion, I can withdraw."
Li Jiang walked up to him and shook his head: "Resignations are ordinary members of the church. Have you ever heard of high-level Mingjiao members quitting the religion?"
Xie Xun opened his mouth and then closed it. He originally wanted to say the purple-shirted Dragon King, but then he thought about it, Dai Qisi did not quit the religion but apostatized, which was completely different from his current situation.
Seeing his silence, Li Jiang added: "Secondly, our Mingjiao is at a time when it is rising up. It is too little for one person to be used as two people. As an important military officer, you have to take care of everything, but you have to give up your job. How can you be so cruel to us?"
Yang Xiao expressed his support and said: "Yes, thank you, brother. You are both civil and military, and we are still waiting for you to go back to discuss important matters!"
"Third, Buddhism talks about the universal salvation of all sentient beings. If you become a monk, you can only save one person, so don't you care about the common people in the world? In my opinion, overthrowing the tyranny and establishing great harmony is the true universal salvation of all sentient beings."
"Amitabha Buddha" is heard in the sky, and the Buddha's name is loudly shouted in the sky.
"Fourth, Brother Wuji has a deep love for each other. He spent a lot of effort to save you, just to let you enjoy the happiness of family relationship. Your becoming a monk is tantamount to cutting off his family relationship. How cruel to him?
Zhang Wuji's eyes filled with tears. He felt that what Brother Li said was so right. He squatted down and choked with sobs and said to Xie Xun: "Father, please give the child a chance to fulfill his filial piety."
Xie Xun was speechless for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "Consultant Li is very eloquent, but I can't speak to you. I can temporarily stop being a monk, but there is one condition."
When Zhang Wuji heard that Xie Xun had given up on becoming a monk, he felt very determined and said hurriedly: "Father, no matter what your conditions are, I agree."
Xie Xun patted Zhang Wuji on the shoulder but ignored him. Instead, he turned his face in the direction of Li Jiang and said, "It doesn't matter if you agree, someone must agree, lest he doesn't admit it and comes up with all kinds of reasons."
."
Well, Zhang Wuji looked up at Li Jiang awkwardly, with a wild look in his eyes, indicating that he should agree quickly.
Li Jiang smiled bitterly and said: "Thank you, old man. How can I disagree with the leader's promise? Then what, tell me your conditions."
Xie Xun said sternly: "When the Mingjiao drives out the Tartars one day, you must agree that I will quit the Mingjiao and become a monk."
Zhang Wuji was confused. He didn't expect that his adoptive father would never die in becoming a monk. He was confused for a while, not knowing whether Brother Li should agree or not.
"A monk, Xiao Lin?" Li Jiang held his chin and pondered.
Xie Xun stayed in the Mingjiao mountainside camp for a few days and listened to Li Jiang's policy presentation to him. Among them, the Mingjiao's attitude toward Xiao Lin was to take back his monk's field.
Therefore, Xie Xun understood Li Jiang's concerns and said: "Consultant Li, I don't have to join Xiaolin, any other temple will do."
"Is that so?" Li Jiang said.
"That's right." Xie Xun nodded heavily.
Kong Wen and Kong Zhi, who were watching, were relieved at this time. They really didn't want Xie Xun to become a monk in Xiaolin. After the Mingjiao took over the world, Zhang Wuji would be the emperor, and the emperor's father came to Xiaolin to become a monk, wouldn't he have provided a living ancestor? What if?
Any neglect will definitely bring trouble to Xiao Lin!
"Okay, I agree." Li Jiang said decisively.
Zhang Wuji was worried about gains and losses. Seeing Li Jiang agree, he couldn't help but said: "Brother Li..."
He stopped before he finished speaking, and was interrupted by Li Jiang's voice transmission.
"Don't worry, I have a way. If Mr. Xie really wants to become a monk by then, that's fine. We can build him an emperor's temple, whether it's in the palace or around the palace. If he wants to be a monk, let him do it."
Zhang Wuji was shocked! Isn’t this deceiving people?
But he thought again, putting aside the aspect of fooling people, Brother Li's idea was actually a good one. Not only did he fulfill the father-son relationship between himself and Xie Xun, but he also fulfilled his promise and fulfilled his adoptive father's wish to become a monk. It was the best of both worlds.
The two of them communicated quietly, but the onlookers were confused.
What are Zhang Wuji and Li Jiang talking about? Why are Zhang Wuji’s eyes getting brighter and brighter?
There were smart people in the room. Zhao Min rolled his eyes twice and immediately guessed Li Jiang's intention.
She walked forward, came to Li Jiang's side, stood on tiptoes and whispered in Li Jiang's ear: "Brother Haichuan, are you having a bad idea again? Do you want to trap King Xie Fa in the capital to become a monk?"
Li Jiang's ears itched, he tilted his head and pointed his finger on her lips, signaling her to stop talking.
Zhao Min blushed and nodded.
Xie Xun stopped talking, which meant that the martial arts conference had elected the new alliance leader Wuji.
The election of a new alliance leader does not mean that the martial arts conference is over. There is still a process that has not yet been completed, and that is Xiaolin Sandu challenging the new alliance leader on Xiaolin's behalf to demonstrate Xiaolin's military power.
The host Kong Zhi appeared at the right time and said loudly: "All heroes please move to the back mountain to watch the martial arts competition between the three Duzi monks and the leader and others."
"Okay, I just didn't see enough!"
There was a roar.
The onlookers watched a revenge drama today, but they did not see any more profound martial arts, and they were still unfinished. When they heard that there was a contest between the leader of the alliance and the eminent monk Xiaolin, they were overjoyed. Then they invited their friends to go to Xiaolin together.
Back mountain.
The Mingjiao people, accompanied by the Xiaolin monk, also went to the back mountain.
On the way, Zhang Wuji sent a message: "Brother Li, we will take action later and don't end it too soon."
Zhang Wuji finally relented. Seeing that Xiao Lin had released his adoptive father and was also very cooperative with the Ming Cult, he couldn't bear to offend them. He knew Li Jiang's martial arts very well, and he was only one step away from breaking the formation. With Li Jiang, he could defeat Sandu Zhen.
It's just a matter of time.
Li Jiang Chuanyin agreed. He was also very interested in Sandu's method of transferring Qi to each other, making three people become like one person.
After everyone turned a few corners and crossed a few rivers, they arrived at a mountain that was completely different from the previous one, full of green, ethereal and quiet.
Seeing such a beautiful scene, the rough martial arts practitioners couldn't help but hold their breath and restrain their loud talks, for fear of breaking the tranquility of the place.
After walking a few steps, three ancient pines reaching into the sky appeared in front of everyone.
The Xiaolin monk who was leading the way happened to stop here. When everyone looked around, they saw a monk in gray sitting cross-legged under each pine tree.
