    Chapter 244 Abbot

    Yang Mengzhen came and drifted away, her snow-white boots and socks not stained by dust, and she didn't say a word. This was just because she was indifferent by nature and didn't like trivial matters. If she landed, she would be surrounded by people asking questions. She  Is extremely disgusting.

    Even though she comes and goes without leaving a speck of dust, her beautiful and cool appearance and temperament are captured by people at a sudden glance, which makes her even more amazing and she is called a fairy.

    The legend of "The Fairy Lingbo on the West Lake" began to spread from that day, and since then, the stone arch bridge has become a famous scene on the West Lake.

    A group of people from the Canglan Sect stayed at the Yuelai Inn not far from the first gate of Lin'an City for the past two days. When they checked in, they were told that someone had already paid the bill for them, so they just stayed there.

    When asked by Ouyang Yousi, the head of the Canglan Sect, who the shopkeeper was with a kind and friendly face, he replied with a smile: "Haha, the guest did not tell me his surname, he just said that he was  The surname is Xiao."

    Ouyang Yousi's mind suddenly appeared in Ouyang Yousi's mind, the extremely ordinary face that came to greet the leader of the Qingwei Sword Sect. Could it be that the man named Xiao who disappeared in front of him after taking two steps was really him?  Except for him, there is no one named Xiao that he knows.

    Ouyang Yousi's handsome face suddenly changed color, he turned around suddenly, his eyes flickered, and slowly looked at the crowd of guests in the building. His inspection was fruitless, but he did not give up, and walked out of the inn again, looking around.

    He had a stern expression and a solemn heart. He didn¡¯t know why the other party knew that he wanted to stay at this inn. Even he didn¡¯t know that he would choose this inn beforehand!

    It¡¯s just that the streets are full of people and traffic.  How can you detect other people's prying eyes? Moreover, even if someone is following you, you may not be able to know in advance the inn you choose to stay in. It's really a very evil thing!

    He is a very smart person. In a flash, he has figured out that Master Xiao is so powerful.  I'm afraid I won't be able to notice it, so there's no need to waste my efforts.

    Since he had this opportunity to get acquainted with him, Ouyang Yousi would not let it go, so he lived here calmly.

    In fact, this was just a guess by Xiao Yuesheng.

    Ouyang Yousi finally chose Yuelai Inn, which was not surprising, partly because the inn was decorated in an antique style.  It is full of warmth and the atmosphere is much better than other inns.

    Furthermore, this place looked very familiar to him. There were many people named Yuelai Inn in the whole Jiangnan area.  The layout and setting are almost exactly the same. As soon as you enter, you will feel familiar and in a foreign land.

    This feeling can determine a traveler¡¯s stay almost instantly.

    This is naturally the business method of Ziming Trading Company, which is similar to the chain business model of later generations. It is obvious at a glance that it is Xiao Yuesheng's idea.

    " Xiao Yuesheng's guess that Ouyang Yousi and the others could choose Yuelai Inn is not a big deal. Besides, even if he guesses wrong, it doesn't matter. Why not?

    Yuelai Inn is huge and has many elegant residences.  After the three-story main building, there are dozens of small courtyards dotted around. Each elegant residence is a unique courtyard, with flowers, grass and green bamboos planted inside, surrounded by mountains and flowing water.  The word elegant.

    They settled down.  Live in a courtyard.  There are two beautiful girls in the hospital who take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation.

    These two girls are not only well-behaved and agile.  He is meticulous in serving people, and he is a master at observing facial expressions. He can easily open people's hearts.

    I heard that Ouyang Yousi and the others came to Ancheng for the first time, so he introduced them to Lin'an City. Where are the beautiful scenic spots that can be seen, where are the pastries that are good and can be tasted, where are the exquisite dishes that must be tasted, and so on.  , very detailed and eloquent, which made them listen with great interest and couldn't help but want to visit it themselves.

    Ouyang Yuzhu was already impatient and had already dragged his brother Ouyang Yuming out to the main building of the inn. It was three stories high and flags fluttered high in the sky, reaching into the sky. In fact, this was a restaurant, similar to the one outside Yongjin Gate.  Fengle Tower is very different.

    On this day, Ouyang Yousi and his junior brother Qi Zuping were sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, admiring the small bamboo forest around them, listening to the green bamboos moving in the wind and making a soft rustling sound. They drank with each other over a plate of side dishes.  Pour, quite leisurely.

    The purpose of their coming here is to increase their knowledge and increase the experience of Ouyang Yuzhu and Ouyang Yuming. They have no ambitions, so they can be so leisurely.

    They get up in the morning and go to the main building to eat. Although they can have the food brought over, they want to increase their knowledge and go to the main building to join in the fun and hear some interesting things.

    As soon as I arrived upstairs, I heard the news that twenty-two martial arts masters had lost their swords last night and were arrested and disabled in martial arts by Jiaxing.?Hung on the pine tree outside Lin'an City Gate.

    By the time they ran away, it was already too late. The twenty-two masters hanging on the trees had disappeared, and they could only hear people talking.

    Even though they were disappointed, they still felt that their trip was worthwhile. They were able to meet such a master. Although they had heard about the reputation of Jiaxing Iron Traitors, they did not pay much attention to it because they had never planned to go to Jiaxing Mansion. Today, they finally  Seeing their methods was eye-opening.

    "Master, master!" A hurried shout interrupted Ouyang Yousi and Qi Zuping's interest. Ouyang Yuming suddenly ran in from outside, his calm and steady demeanor was gone, and there was still a green stick stuck to the corner of his mouth.  Lai Si, her tone was eager and excited.

    Ouyang Yousi frowned, his handsome face darkened, the white porcelain wine cup slowly took away from his lips, stopped in mid-air, and snorted with some displeasure: "Look at you, what a shame! Could it be a human life?"  It¡¯s a matter of heaven¡¯s concern?¡­ If you take a few steps slowly, you won¡¯t lose your life!¡±

    Ouyang Yuming stood obediently in front of his father and uncle, took a few breaths hard, used his skills to calm down his pounding heart, took a breath, and said calmly: "The leader is Tianming.  Abbot,I met Abbot Tianming!"

    "What?!" Ouyang Yousi's frowning eyebrows suddenly raised, and he suddenly stood up from the stone bench, pressed on the stone table, leaned forward and asked eagerly: "Where is Abbot Tianming?"

    Its eagerness.  He immediately threw away his original calmness and still held the white porcelain wine cup in his hand. The wine in the cup overflowed without him noticing.

    Ouyang Yuming has long been accustomed to his father's scolding. He has become accustomed to hearing his words in his left ear and out of his right ear. It does not affect his mood at all. Now he sees his father acting so gloomy.

    I couldn¡¯t help but laugh a few times in my heart. When I saw my father¡¯s sharp and eager eyes, I didn¡¯t dare to make any further mistakes. I said slowly and calmly: ¡°Abbot Tianming is in the restaurant now, and Master Wu Se from Luohan Hall is also here.¡±

    "Quick, quick, quick!" Ouyang Yousi waved his hand and put down the white porcelain wine cup.  He stepped out of the seat, walked out of the pavilion, and walked out quickly, saying: "It is really rare to meet Abbot Tianming here.

    You guys come up with me to pay my respects!  "

    Ouyang Yuming smiled bitterly, shook his head, and followed his father, while Qi Zuping, with a solemn face, picked up the long sword on the table.  He also walked quickly with him.

    The founder of Canglan Sect is a lay disciple of Shaolin. The director of Shaolin Temple is of great significance to them, so he would be so rude.

    "Master, don't be anxious!" Ouyang Yuming walked behind him, practicing Qinggong, his long gown fluttering.

    He seemed to be quite calm, and he spoke in the same way. While opening the flower branches sticking out of the flower garden, he said slowly: "Master Abbot and the others were passing by the inn. My sister, with her sharp eyes, saw them and ran downstairs to meet them.  and invited them up.

    Now she is accompanying the abbot and the others.  "

    Ouyang Yousi heard the words.  His steps suddenly slowed down and returned to his original calm rhythm.  The change was so fast that it was quite sudden. He stroked his beard under his chin and nodded: "Well done!  Well done Yuzhu!"

    The goal of the three of them is the third floor of the main building of Yuelai Inn. This floor is full of private rooms, elegantly decorated and quiet, allowing people to say confidential words.

    Ouyang Yousi walked slower and slower, thinking in his mind, suddenly turned around, and asked Ouyang Yuming who was walking behind him: "Apart from Master Wu Se, is there no one else following the abbot Buddha?"

    ¡°There is also a young monk and two old monks with white eyebrows, I don¡¯t recognize them.¡± Ouyang Yuming answered without hesitation.

    Ouyang Yousi nodded, his heart racing, he had already thought about it.

    As the abbot of Shaolin, he rarely leaves the temple on weekdays. There are almost always people in charge of everything, so there is no need for him to do anything. This time he came to Lin'an City, there must be something important.

    The Sunflower Book?  Does Shaolin Temple also want to compete for the Sunflower Book?

    He then wiped away this thought. Shaolin is the leader in martial arts. It has a long history and profound knowledge. It doesn¡¯t matter whether it has the Sunflower Book or not. It will definitely not lower its status and rob it.

    ¡°Furthermore, even if they want to rob, they will not let Master Abbot personally take action. Could it be that they are here to stop the fight for the Sunflower Book?  !

    Well, with the prestige of Shaolin, it is not impossible to stop the martial arts heroes from competing for the Sunflower Book. When it comes to the prestige of martial arts in this world, Shaolin should be promoted.

    The Quanzhen Sect has been in decline since the death of Wang Chongyang. Although the Beggar Gang is the largest gang in the world, when it comes to force, it is far behind. The Maple Leaf in the South is Qingwei in the North. Although it is powerful, it is only a new gang after all, with a very low prestige.  It will take time to establish.

    The more Ouyang Yousi thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

    Passing through the bustling first and second floors??, arrived at the quiet third floor, walked around three times, stopped in front of a room on the south, knocked on the door, and entered.

    The large round table on the vermilion floor looks extremely majestic. Sitting on the main seat is an old monk wearing cassocks. He has a ruddy complexion and white beard and eyebrows. His eyes are clear and soft, faintly revealing the vicissitudes of life and compassion. Under his soft gaze,  It makes people feel respected unconsciously.

    This person is none other than Abbot Tianming, the current abbot of Shaolin Temple.

    Sitting next to Abbot Tianming, who had a peaceful aura, was a strong middle-aged monk with tall bones. His eyes were sharp, and when he looked around, there was a faint electric light, full of power. Even sitting there quietly, he already gave people a sense of power.  With great pressure, he is like the Protector Vajra beside Buddha, who is the first colorless master of Luohan Hall.

    Next to Master Wu Se, there are two old monks in gray robes with white beards and rosy complexions. They have long eyebrows and long beards. Even when Ouyang Yousi comes in, they still lower their curtains and pay no attention.  , seems to have entered concentration.

    Behind Abbot Tianming, there stood a young novice monk with fine features, standing quietly behind the abbot. Unless he was intentional, it would be easy to ignore him.

    Ouyang Yuzhu sat at the bottom, with a calm expression, and spoke to Master Wu Se in a gentle and comfortable manner.  Master Wu Se was born in the martial arts world. He acted and spoke more like a hero than a monk. He and Ouyang Yuzhu chatted quite speculatively.

    "After becoming a lay disciple, Ouyang Yousi pays homage to Master Abbot!" As soon as he entered the door, Ouyang Yousi fell over and paid homage.

    "Donor Ouyang is so polite!" A soft air held him up, preventing him from falling to his knees. Abbot Tianming smiled kindly.

    In fact, they are not strangers, but have met each other several times.  Considered an acquaintance.

    Ouyang Yousi goes to Shaolin once every year. The founder of Canglan Sect is a lay disciple of Shaolin, so he has a connection with Shaolin.

    Ouyang Yousi has a lofty ambition, so he makes full use of this and makes every effort to strengthen his connection with Shaolin. He goes to Shaolin once a year to pay homage to the eminent monks in the temple for martial arts advice.  I have talked with Abbot Tianming several times.

    His efforts were not in vain. After some pleading, he was finally able to get his son to become a disciple of Master Wujue of Luohan Hall.

    But unexpectedly, Ouyang Yuming disagreed and did not want to go to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts, which made his father's efforts in vain.  Naturally, this resulted in a father-son battle.

    Ouyang Yousi greeted the others one by one, and secretly glanced at the gray-robed old monk with downcast eyebrows. He felt that the two of them seemed to be deep in the mountains and ancient pools, unfathomable.  Knowing that he is a master in the temple, he doesn't think it's strange.

    "Shaolin has a profound heritage. There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the temple. There are many unknown masters. These two old monks must be rare masters to protect Abbot Tianming.

    He felt that the young novice monk behind the abbot was a bit unfamiliar.  It seemed that he had never seen him before. Standing behind the abbot, it was almost difficult to detect his presence.

    Ouyang Yousi's mind was sharp and delicate, and he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He couldn't help but take a second look at this young novice monk with delicate features, but he couldn't see anything strange, and there was no longer the weird feeling that he couldn't keep his eyes on him at first glance.  .

    He certainly doesn¡¯t know.  This little novice monk is easily ignored.  It's not that he was born like this, but because he has practiced a unique mental method.

    And this mental method.  It is the Dragon Stinging Sutra given to Shaolin by Xiao Yuesheng.

    The name of the stinging dragon is self-evident, and it is a hidden way. It not only converges the inner energy of the whole body, but also condenses the essence, energy and spirit. It gives people the feeling of being dull and lifeless, and it is easy to ignore the past.

    ??Although when Xiao Yuesheng presented the Heart Technique as a gift, there were people who practiced the Dragon Stinging Sutra and did not leave the temple for three chapters. However, there was an exception and they could travel with the abbot to perform the duty of guardianship.

    This time, the young monk was asked to accompany him, but he had an ulterior motive. The Dragon Sting Sutra is very mysterious and can only be practiced by one person. Although this young monk has extraordinary enlightenment, he is still young and practicing on his own is nothing more than a dream.  , so the elders of the Heart Meditation Hall taught the technique according to the secret manual.

    However, the Stinging Dragon Sutra vaguely belongs to the Taoist lineage, and its purpose is very different from that of Buddhism. These elders of the Heart Meditation Hall, who are profound in Buddhism, are not allowed to enter. It happened that Xiao Yuesheng's invitation was sent to Shaolin, so Abbot Tianming had an idea and took advantage of this.  When the opportunity arose, he took the first generation descendant of the Dragon Sting Sutra with him to seek help from Xiao Yuesheng.

    "Master Abbot, Lin'an City has been agitated these days because of the Sunflower Book. It's so lively!" Ouyang Yousi personally stepped forward to pour tea for Abbot Tianming, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

    "Amitabha, all living beings suffer, and everything cannot escape the suffering of greed and ignorance!" Abbot Tianming pronounced the name of the Buddha, with a look of compassion on his ruddy face.

    "Sunflower Book, Sunflower Book, I really don't know if there is such a secret book!" Master Wuse snorted, his voice loud and clear, like the sound of a copper bell, faintly carrying a soul-stirring power.

      "Huh?! What the master said is absolutely true! So far, she seems to be the only one who has actually seen the Sunflower Book!" Ouyang Yousi, who had just returned to his seat, suddenly became alarmed, and slapped his thigh hard with some surprise.

    "Is the abbot here to resolve this dispute?" Ouyang Yousi asked carefully.

    Master Wu Se touched his slightly blue bald head with his big palm-like hand, glanced at the thoughtful Abbot Tianming, and shook his head: "That's not true. When we set out from Shaolin, there wasn't much noise here.  Awesome, I came here this time just to be invited as a guest!"

    "Oh, that's it I wonder which famous elder can bother the abbot Buddha to come in person?!" Ouyang Yousi asked in surprise. He just asked out of emotion and had no other thoughts. After all, the abbot of Shaolin is so prestigious.  Long.

    "Haha I'm afraid you don't recognize this person's thoughts." Master Wu Se was bold and heroic by nature. He chuckled and waved his big hands like cattail leaf fans.

    Ouyang Yousi is very familiar with Master Wu Se and has received many guidance from him. The two have a good friendship and talk without any scruples.

    "Are you from the temple?" Ouyang Yousi asked with a smile. He was also very casual when talking to Master Wu Se. If he was cautious, he would look down on him.

    Master Wu Se shook his head and smiled, and was about to speak when suddenly, a clear and gentle voice sounded: "Master Abbot, you are polite, I would like to pay my respects to Xiao Yuesheng!"

    Abbot Tianming stood up, shouted the Buddha's name loudly, clasped his palms together, walked towards the door, and softly announced the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, layman Xiao, please come in!"

    Master Wu Se and the two old monks in gray robes who seemed to be in trance also stood up and looked at the door, which made Ouyang Yousi and others stand up involuntarily.

    The door of the room was slowly pushed open, and the two people stepped in, and the room suddenly lit up.

    It was Xiao Yuesheng who was smiling and Xiaoyu who looked like a fairy concubine. Both of them were dressed in mink fur and were white and flawless, naturally lighting up the room.
