On the way to the Bodhidharma Cave in Houshan Mountain, Qiao Feng was filled with emotion.
"Master Xuanbei is worthy of being an eminent monk of the generation, he is really impressive." Wu Changfeng also said with admiration.
When He Xie heard this, he just smiled and said nothing more.
He Xie told Xuan Bei that those martial arts secret books and land deeds were temporarily stored in Shaolin. After he finished meeting the sweeping monk, he would be transported back to Ziwei Palace by Qiao Feng himself.
Passing through Talin and Chuzu Temple is the location of Houshan Bodhidharma Cave.
From a distance, the three of them saw an old monk sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, like a sculpture. He was the floor-sweeping monk.
When the three of them approached, the sweeping monk opened his eyes and said with a smile: "He, almsgiver, this poor monk has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Thank you, senior." He Xie cupped his fists.
"A stream flows eastward into the sea, and never turns back. Facing the wall, only reeds cross the river." The sweeping monk chanted slowly and slowly got up. "I think back to the time when Bodhidharma finally attained Bodhi here. It should be
What a grace?"
He said with emotion: "It's a pity that the younger generations are unworthy and have brought shame to our ancestors. Fortunately, Xuanbei still has a benevolent heart. Otherwise, the thousand-year-old temple will be cut off sooner or later."
He Xie's eyes flashed and he nodded: "That's true."
Xuan Bei really touched He Xie. Originally, in his plan, Shaolin was going to perish sooner or later. At least the word Shaolin could not be left behind.
But now, he changed his mind just because of Xuan Bei.
The relationship arose from the acquaintance of the Jieji Temple, and the fate of the Mahavira Palace was destroyed in a battle. This cause and effect is worthy of He Xie's unsatisfactory ending.
"Donor He is also a kindhearted person with a kind heart..." the sweeping monk said with profound meaning.
This old monster really penetrates people's hearts...
He Xie looked at him: "What is the connection between senior and Xiaoyao Sect?"
The sweeping monk sighed: "The past is like smoke, why bother mentioning it again? But since Donor He asked about it, the poor monk had no choice but to refuse to answer."
"In the past, when the poor monk was still in the world of mortals, Almsgiver Pan was once the poor monk's book boy..." A trace of reminiscence flashed in the eyes of the sweeping monk.
What a shame!
Pan Lang only worked as a book boy for one person, and that was Zhao Dezhao, the second son of Taizu, later known as Prince Yin!
He never expected that the status of the sweeping monk would be so noble!
"In the past, the poor monk and Donor Pan both became disciples of Mr. Xiyi." The sweeping monk said slowly, "But Mr. Xiyi accepted the poor monk as his disciple, but he only registered his name. Therefore, Donor Pan has always been troubled, and even
He did not hesitate to turn against the poor monk because of this and did not have any contact with him for a year."
He Xie was shocked, but Qiao Feng and Wu Changfeng were confused and confused.
They neither know who Donor Pan is, nor what Mr. Xiyi represents.
"The poor monk originally thought that he was a lonely and weird madman, but when he was twenty-four years old, he encountered great changes. He actually came to see the poor monk and swore a strong oath to seek justice for the poor monk."
The sweeping monk looked complicated.
He Xie nodded silently. If he guessed correctly, the big change he was talking about should be the mysterious case of the sound of axes and candle shadows, the sudden death of Taizu, and the succession of Emperor Taizong.
In other words, the sweeping monk has lived for 142 years.
What an old monster.
As for Pan Lang's so-called seeking justice, one can imagine why.
"In the following decades, Donor Pan repeatedly worked hard for the poor monk's cause, but was repeatedly frustrated. However, he was arrogant and refused to admit defeat."
The sweeping monk shook his head and sighed: "The poor monk told him that the poor monk had actually put this matter down a long time ago, but he only thought that the poor monk looked down on him, and became even more obsessed with it."
He Xie heard this and already understood why Mr. Xiyi only accepted Pan Lang as a registered disciple.
"Thirty years ago, Donor Pan suddenly found the poor monk. He was very happy to invite me to take charge of the overall situation, saying that the great cause would be accomplished." The sweeping monk said, "But the poor monk had no nostalgia for the mortal world at that time, how could he agree?
Moreover, his so-called great cause will definitely cause a bloody storm in the world, and the poor monk vows to die not to follow it."
Thirty years ago again...
This timing is really interesting. He Xie speculated that thirty years ago when Xiaoyaozi Pan Lang came to find the sweeping monk, it should be after he planned Murong Bo to provoke the heroes of the Central Plains to attack Xiao Yuanshan.
"The words are not conducive, but he got angry and started fighting with the poor monk." The sweeping monk shook his head, "He has been working in vain for the poor monk all his life, how can the poor monk bear to hurt him? Therefore, he only suffered from his repeated attacks.
Not fighting back."
"He beat the poor monk until he was about to die, and then he was sure that the poor monk really had no fighting spirit, and he immediately went crazy." When the sweeping monk said this, he finally sighed and showed sadness, "He threatened the poor monk. If the poor monk did not come forward, he would
Let the five countries fight and repeat the tragedy of the five indiscriminate wars a hundred years ago."
"This person is simply crazy!" Qiao Feng couldn't help but said angrily.
The sweeping monk took a deep look at him and said, "Donor Qiao does have a reason to say that."
"In order to stop him, the poor monk had no choice but to attack him." The sweeping monk continued, "He has only been busy with secular affairs for decades, and his martial arts progress has been very slow. However, the poor monk has no distractions and devotes himself to hard training. Therefore, although the poor monk's muscles are
His pulse was cut off and all his internal organs were damaged, but he was still defeated by me."
At this point, the sweeping monk was silent for a long time, and then continued: "Unexpectedly, he couldn't bear the blow of being inferior to the poor monk in martial arts. While scolding his teacher for being biased, he cut off his heart and died. The poor monk wanted to save him, but it was too late.
Already."
"Actually, the innate diagram taught to me by my teacher is just a method of cultivating and maintaining health." The sweeping monk's eyes showed sadness, "The poor monk's martial arts were all collected and self-taught by his later generations wandering around the world. What he learned is what his teacher is most proud of.
Martial arts..."
He Xie was shocked in his heart, everything was smoothed out, that's it!
The sweeping monk Zhao Dezhao and Xiaoyaozi Pan Lang both became disciples of Chen Tuan, the deity of Huashan Mountain, who is also Mr. Xiyi. Xiaoyaozi was aloof and jealous by nature, but he was warm-hearted and valued righteousness and kept promises.
Although he was jealous that Chen Tuan only accepted the sweeping monk as his disciple, and he only accepted himself as a registered disciple, but as soon as the mystery of the ax sound and candle shadow occurred, he came over as soon as possible and told his senior brother that he would help him seek justice.
At that time, he was only seven years old.
That's when the tragedy began.
Three years later, the sweeper Zhao Dezhao faked his death and left the court. He may have died for real, but he was rescued by Chen Tuan.
Two years later, Xiaoyaozi began his rebellion. Since then, for more than a hundred years, he has been committed to seeking justice for his senior brother, regardless of whether the sweeping monk is willing or not.
It wasn't until thirty years ago that Xiaoyaozi's layout was completed. He had arranged everything. He happily came to Shaolin to find the sweeping monk and tell him your justice. I can help you get it back. This time, I am very sure. All you need to do is stand up.
Come out, raise your arms and call out.
But the sweeping monk's rejection caused Xiaoyaozi to completely collapse.
A hundred years of obsession turned out to be a reluctance. No one else could bear such a blow, so Xiaoyaozi injured the sweeping monk, and beat the sweeping monk until he was breathless. This is why the sweeping monk's martial arts skills are so high.
, but the reason why the injuries were so serious.
In order to prevent Xiaoyaozi from wreaking havoc on the world, the sweeping monk took action to defeat him. Xiaoyaozi committed suicide in despair. As a result, a series of arrangements by Murong Bo, Xiao Yuanshan, Wu Yazi, Tianshan Tonglao, etc. came to a standstill, even if they went astray.
No one has corrected it.
Later, Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo went to the Sutra Pavilion to secretly learn martial arts. The sweeping monk acquiesced to the two of them with apology. Later, Jiumozhi also came, and the sweeping monk simply let it go.
