The heavens begin from practicing swords in the palace

Today, the wind is sunny and cloudless.

Under Shaoshi Mountain, tens of thousands of Qing soldiers have surrounded all the exits below the mountain.

These tens of thousands of Qing soldiers wore helmets, cotton armor, arrow barrels on their backs, spears in their hands, and treasured swords hanging from their waists.The sergeants made no noise, and the ranks were absolutely chaotic. All of them were full of energy and powerful, and they looked like elite soldiers among the Eight Banners.

Not long after, a man of about 60 years old with a tall and burly face, surrounded by a crowd of people, came to the foot of Shaoshi Mountain.

This person is Zhao Qiu.

With a wave of Zhao Qiu's hand, [-] evil-disciplining troops and [-] elite soldiers began to go up Shaoshi Mountain.

After a long time, he saw the gate of the mountain, Zhao Qiu let out a long sigh, and said to himself: "The mountain is still that mountain, and the temple is still that temple!

However, the people in the temple seem to be far inferior to those in the past.In the original book, the contemporary abbot of Shaolin Temple, who is obscure and conscientious, participated in the Turtle Killing Conference and served as the provincial leader of the Rape Elimination League. On the other hand, he was conferred the title of "Fu Guoyou Sheng Zen Master" by Kangxi. He flattered Kangxi and accepted Wei Xiaobao as his junior. Both sides have the source, straddle the fence and work.

The Eighteen Arhats of the Bodhidharma Academy of Shaolin Temple also made great contributions in defeating the conspiracy of the Dragon Sect and the lamas, saving Wei Xiaobao and protecting the Shunzhi Emperor.

[-] elite soldiers in armor, and [-] evil-disciplining troops, under an order, have surrounded Shaolin Temple.

At this time, the gate was wide open, and a group of monks slowly came out, all clasped their hands together, and chanted Buddhist scriptures.

I only heard the leading old monk with a kind face and kind eyes say: "This old man is dark and intelligent. He is the abbot of Shaolin Temple. He has met all your lords and generals. All of us in Shaolin Temple are monks and don't get involved in worldly affairs. I don't know why the imperial army came here. Siege?"

Zhao Qiu laughed for a while, and said: "How can the mind be detached from the world of mortals? It is said that it does not care about world affairs, but in fact, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all matters of the world of mortals."

"I don't know your honor, which prince is he?" Hui Cong saw Zhao Qiu's yellow python robe with nine pythons and four claws.

"Guess, old monk!" Zhao Qiu said with a half-smile.

"Python robes, princes, county kings, embroidered with nine pythons. From Baylor down to civil and military third-rank officials, county monarch foreheads, generals of Fengguo, and first-class guards, all have nine pythons and four claws. However, yellow is exclusive to the emperor, and the rest , whoever dares to wear yellow, I'm afraid...I'm afraid it's just King Yan!" Hui Cong Gujing's face showed a trace of surprise.

"You are King Yan?"

Zhao Qiu snorted coldly, and said: "You are a monk, and you still say that the four elements are all empty, but you know the difference between the dragon robe and the python robe. Hehe, I think you have not exhausted your six roots, and your heart has not died!"

Hui Cong clasped his hands together and said, "What the King of Yan taught is true!"

Zhao Qiu said: "Han Zi said: Confucianism violates the law with literature, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban. Recently, outside the temple, there are not a few people who use martial arts to violate the ban. But the martial arts in the world come from Shaolin. If you want to find out the root cause, you have to come to Shaolin Temple for a while." trip."

Hui Cong lowered his eyebrows and said: "Shaolin martial arts is for physical fitness, and no one relies on martial arts to commit crimes. What's more, the root of people in the world who use martial arts to commit crimes is still above the temple. Just because the world Martial arts came out of Shaolin, King Yan besieged me in Shaolin today, but he was a bit of a loser." He meant that the reason why people in the Jianghu rebelled against the Qing Dynasty was still rooted in the court.

Zhao Qiu laughed and said, "What you old monk said is somewhat interesting! However, if we can fight for literature, why does the imperial court have to raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses? In the world, not everyone is sensible and prudent.

Today, with 83 soldiers alone, how can they retreat easily.How about this!There were 83 evil spirits alone, and [-] soldiers were selected from them.Your Shaolin Temple has been passed down for thousands of years, and you are the largest sect in the world, so you also select [-] monks from among these monks, and fight against each other!

If the evil spirit army loses, they will retreat in isolation!If Shaolin Temple loses, let me handle it!how? "

Hui Cong clasped his hands together and said: "Buddhism originally forbids fighting with swords and soldiers, since King Yan opened the golden mouth, I, Shaolin Temple, can only obey." He saw that Shaolin Temple was besieged, densely packed with elite soldiers everywhere, and he didn't know how many people were still down the mountain People and horses.As "Oboi" the most powerful official in the world, he said that he sent [-] soldiers, and the Qing soldiers surrounding the temple today will never be less than [-].

If "Oboi" ordered tens of thousands of soldiers to encircle and suppress them at this time, with the bravery of the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners, they would know that the temple would be destroyed and people would die.

He thought to himself: "My Shaolin Temple has been passed down for thousands of years, and there are 72 unique arts. There are thousands of people in the temple, almost everyone practices martial arts, and there are so many masters. If you choose 83 people from them, you may not lose to him."

Afterwards, Hui Cong selected 83 people with the strongest martial arts from the Shaolin Temple, and Cheng Guan and others walked out from among the monks.

Cheng Guan proclaimed the Buddha's name, and whispered softly beside Hui Cong: "Brother Abbot, please be at ease, we will do our best to keep the thousand-year foundation of Shaolin Temple from being destroyed."

This Chengguan is the first Prajna Hall in Shaolin Temple. He entered Shaolin Temple at the age of 11 and is proficient in One-Finger Zen. The speed of practicing One-Finger Zen is known as the third in the millennium.

The remaining 82 people are also monks who have practiced diligently for many years. They possess advanced martial arts, and they are also first-class masters in the world.

Not long after, 83 small captains of the evil spirit army came out.

These 83 eunuchs held long swords and looked arrogant.

Cheng Guan clasped his hands together, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said: "I will not go to hell, whoever will go to hell! This first round, I will do it!" After finishing speaking, he lifted a wooden stick, stood in front of him, and walked to the square .

In the evil spirit army, a eunuch about [-] or [-] years old came out, his name was Wen Youdao.

This Wen Youdao, and his direct brother Wen Youfang, used to be little eunuchs in the study room. They loved gambling and making money, and they had a cowardly personality.

However, Huainan produces tangerines, while Huaibei produces trifoliate oranges. Different environments create different people.

That Wen Youfang was also in the evil-proofing army, although he had practiced evil-proofing swordsmanship, his personality was still cowardly, but after Wen Youdao practiced all 72 ways of evil-proofing swordsmanship, a radical change took place.
