After making an agreement with his junior sister to fight another day, Baozi Tou followed Huang Shang and reluctantly left the valley.

In the valley, everyone headed by the junior sister looked at them even more reluctantly.

Huang Shang's original plan was to teach them for half a year, but due to the pressure from the Temple of War, he had to leave early.

Fortunately, everyone's foundation has been corrected and solidified, and the junior sister was quietly promoted to the seventeenth level of the Heavenly Demon Dafa last night.

I wanted to give him a surprise, but it ended up causing this separation.

However, with the little junior sister who has become a grandmaster here, there is also someone in charge of this valley, and they will not disperse casually.

Like Jinyang Academy, one is south and one is north, one is evil and the other is righteous.

"I'm still not strong enough."

"Eighteenth level! Eighteenth level!"

The junior sister slowly clenched her bare hands and watched as the two figures, one large and one small, disappeared at the mouth of the valley.

Arriving at Jiankang Pier and taking a boat down the river, Huang Shang took Baozi Tou and headed for the land of Bashu.

Along the way, we still traveled around and enjoyed the scenery.

But let alone Huang Shang, even Baozitou, who has a keen mind, could faintly feel a net being laid around him.

In the Four Hundred and Eighty Temples of the Southern Dynasties, the power of Buddhism is so powerful. Not to mention Huang Shang, even if he is cautious, as long as he does not stay in one place, such as the secret valley of Xieji Sect, otherwise he will be traced.

to the trace.

Huang Shang turned a blind eye and continued to teach Baozitou cultural knowledge, and further laid a solid foundation for her Cihang Sword Code.

A month later, the two came to Chengdu.

As for the origin of the name Chengdu, it is based on the historical process of the establishment of the capital in the Western Zhou Dynasty. It is named after the king of Zhou moved to Qi, settled in Qi in one year, established a city in two years, and Chengdu in three years.

Similarly, Chengdu means Biye, which means end. Chengdu was originally the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and its meaning is actually the last city of the Shu Kingdom.

But the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom has long since disappeared in the long river of history. The foundation of the current capital was built by Zhang Yi after the Qin State annexed the Shu State.

Later, everyone knew that after the construction of Dujiangyan, by the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Chengdu had replaced Guanzhong and was called the Land of Abundance.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, compared to the devastated Central Plains, Chengdu suffered less damage due to its geographical advantages in Bashu.

But again, this place is hindered by dangerous mountains and rivers, and the people's customs are simple... The people are really simple, they love a self-sufficient life, and they are relatively safe. If they want to use this to dominate the world, it is almost impossible.

When Huang Shang entered the city, he felt an atmosphere of prosperity and wealth. Even if it was not a festival, the streets were crowded with tourists. The men were full of energy, the girls were showing off their flowers, and the sounds of laughter and play filled the streets lined with shops.

At the same time, monks could be seen passing by everywhere, and people would move to either side or put their hands together to show respect.

In the past, Baozi Tou would have looked proud, but looking at him now, his eyes were calm and leisurely, neither happy nor sad.

The two wandered around casually, and after most of the day, they came to a temple.

Seen from outside the wall, this temple covers a huge area, with towering ancient cypresses, bamboo trees and green onions. Surrounded by red walls, there are pagodas in the sky, and the temple towers are majestic and tall.

Entering from the main entrance, it is even more lively than the Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, with people making wishes and praying constantly coming and going, and incense filling the air.

However, this temple is much larger than Hanshan Temple. Starting from the Shanmen Hall, to the Heavenly King Hall, the Seven Buddha Hall, to the Main Hall and the Sutra Library, etc., there are many halls and grandeur, and the believers are spread out, which makes it appear that

No more crowded.

Huang Shang took Baozitou, avoided the flow of people, walked through a long corridor, and came to the Luohan Hall.

There are no believers here, but instead there are rows of Buddha statues all over the main hall.

At a glance, there are dozens of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the center.

Among them, the Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara, which resides in the center of the temple, is the most eye-catching. Not only is it majestic, but the shape of each hand and the instruments it holds are different, giving people a sense of vast supernatural power.

Of course, those who know the goods will also have a sense of money making ability.

Although it is not an all-gold Buddha statue, the amount of money required for such a large bronze statue, plus hand-painting, is probably enough to cover the annual needs of thousands of households.

There are no fewer than dozens of such statues in the hall, and there are even five hundred Arhats arranged around them. Each one is exquisite in shape and bright in color. Whether standing, leaning, sitting or lying down, they all look like real people, with extremely vivid expressions.

"This is showing off your wealth!"

Huang Shang laughed in his heart and walked forward with his hands behind his hands, arriving in front of the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara Seat. Surrounded by rows of Arhat Buddha statues, a boundless aura of Buddhism was suppressed in the sky.

There is no doubt that this Luohan Hall is the absolute home of Buddhism.

Buntou glanced at him slightly worriedly.

Along the way, she felt the faint aura of Buddhism. If an ordinary child walked into this big stone temple, she would naturally think that she came here by chance due to interest, but she knew that it was because of the spirit of a top master.

To induce them to come here.

But with Huang Shang's state of mind, he has a clear understanding of fire. He still comes here, confident to take on the challenge.

However, before the enemy appeared, he admired the handprints of the Buddha statue and said to Baozitou: "Buddhism was introduced to China from Tianzhu. It pays most attention to the three methods of body, speech and mind, and this handprint is the body

'The most important part, pay attention!"

As Huang Shang spoke, he put his two palms together vertically, with the palms slightly empty, like lotus flowers blooming.

Then the two palms are lifted up and clasped together, like squeezing water, and then the hands are folded backwards and the fingers are intertwined, creating various different mudras.

Counting from the little finger to the thumb, these mudras are "Earth, Water, Fire, Space, and Wind". The right hand shows "wisdom" and the left hand shows "concentration". By connecting the ten fingers of both hands with the inside and outside as a meridian, you can practice "wisdom" in the body.

Qi, chakras, chakras”.

This is Tianzhu’s cultivation system.

The emphasis on three meridians, five qi, and seven wheels is similar to the eight meridians of the Central Plains martial arts, but there are great differences.

This is actually the "orthodox" Buddhism, but after it was spread to the Central Plains, it absorbed the essence of the Central Plains martial arts and evolved into what it is now.

Baozitou listened unconsciously.

If it weren't for the fact that Huang Shang didn't have any dignity or even the slightest awe in his appearance, she would have thought he was some Buddhist elder.

But indeed, as he spoke calmly, the Buddhist atmosphere around him that originally rejected him unconsciously surrounded him, guarding him like stars over the moon.

"Amitabha!"

Suddenly, the monks hiding in the darkness could no longer hold back. The vast and thought-provoking chants of the Buddha sounded in unison, and several figures appeared, surrounding him in the center.

The seals in the immortal seal method undoubtedly come from Buddhism, because Shi Zhixuan once worshiped under the disciples of two great Buddhist monks, secretly learned the essence of Buddhism, and integrated it into his own martial arts. The mudra is "Externally, it connects to the universe, and internally, it penetrates the five internal organs.

"Eight Extraordinary Meridians", as a bridge, brought Shi Zhixuan's strange Tianyi Zhenqi into full play.

But Huang doesn't need it yet.

The ultimate in martial arts, different paths lead to the same destination.

The founders of the two sects, Buddhism and Demonism, have had experiences with each other and have exchanged martial arts with each other for a long time. For example, the Lotus Seal of the Tianlian Sect has absorbed part of the essence of Buddhism.

What Huang Shang is currently studying is the way in which the extremes of things must reverse and the transformation of two poles. After he obtained the "Heavenly Demon Strategy" of the Yingui Sect, his immersion in the martial arts of the Demon Sect has reached the level of being the best in the world. The ordinary martial arts of the Buddhist Sect,

There are no secrets in front of him, and he has a clear vision.

This kind of ever-changing, arbitrary behavior is what the Buddhist monks who are secretly observing fear the most.

Obviously, his realm is no longer limited by good and evil Buddhas and demons, but pure self.

Huang Shang looked at the newcomers, scanning them one by one, and nodded slightly: "The lineup is good, but it's a pity that there is no 'Holy Monk'."

The first thing that met Huang Shang's eyes was an eminent monk who looked like Maitreya Buddha. He had a bald head and a swollen belly. Although he was fat, he was not bloated. He looked leisurely and contented, and he looked happy and contented with his life, giving him a friendly and amiable feeling.

This is Daoxin, but now he cannot be called the Fourth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism, but he is already at the level of a master. His cultivation of Buddhism is extremely profound. In the original plot, Shi Zhixuan worshiped under his disciple.

When faced with other enemies, even the bloody demons of the Demon Sect, Dao Xin also likes to say a few thought-provoking words like morning bells and evening drums.

It's not just nonsense. This type of spiritual offensive is what Buddhism is best at, psychologically weakening the enemy's fighting spirit.

Some people with less experience may even directly arouse favorable impressions. Even if Buddhism is always against them, they will feel that Buddhism is for the common people of the world and does not contain selfish desires. On the contrary, they are driven by desires, which is not the case.

But being stared at by Huang Shang's eyes as deep as the vast night sky, Dao Xin wisely did not press too hard.

After him is the wisdom master of the Tiantai Sect. This monk wears a gray monk's robe and a dark brown cassock. He looks the youngest. His eyebrows are black and shiny, and his eyes are shining with the light of wisdom.

The third monk is holding a Zen staff and has a tall and powerful figure. He is the Emperor Xin of the Huayan Sect. The other monk is the skinny and black Master Jiaxiang of the Sanlun Sect, who is no better than a mummy.

The next generation of four holy monks gathered together. In the original plot, they were all very close to the Grand Master, and each of them was fifty-fifty different from Mu Tianmiao, the current Lord of the Underworld.

Of course, today's four great monks are not yet called saints, they are just masters who have just reached the level of two Qu Ao.

In addition to the four eminent monks, there is also a female nun with the same natural beauty. Her brows are full of compassion and compassion for all living beings. She stands quietly holding a sword, and the sword energy envelopes the four directions. She has the highest level of Buddhist cultivation here.

Huang Shang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you the master of Cihang Jingzhai?"

The nun clasped her hands together and said, "Poor nun Jingyi, you are also a great master, why bother with a child?"

"The Lord of Jingzhai and the four eminent monks came from all over the country to gather in this Arhat Hall. It is also a grand event!"

Huang Shang's face was full of sincerity: "If I don't give you an excuse, how can I be a good teacher?"

The conversation couldn't go on anymore. Both sides knew very well that Bao Zitou was just an excuse. At the critical moment when the Buddha was destroyed in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Buddhist sect still dispatched such a lineup. It was precisely because the information inside the Demonic sect was exposed and they learned about the man who turned out to be the leader.

The demon leader began to unite the two sects of the Demon Sect and the Six Paths. In order to prevent the Demon Sect from getting bigger, they had to strike with one strike.

"Amitabha!"

As a result, the five monks and nuns chanted the Buddha's name in unison, and their breaths began to faintly merge into one.
