Chapter 7 Stay

In the evening, Huashan sent people to the inn that Gao Genming had booked first. Everyone felt tired. After Gao Genming arranged, they went back to their rooms to rest. They were about to continue their journey the next day. Shi Daizi leaned over to Gao Genming and asked in a low voice: "The carriages and horses are ready. I have been walking for a whole afternoon, but I don't think there is anything, but if I have to walk for another month, how can I bear it?"

However, Gao Genmei looked serious, shook her head gently, and said, "What happened, we might have to delay here for a few days."

Shi Daizi said in surprise: "What happened?"

Gao Genming was about to speak, but when he saw Yue Buqun was about to enter the backyard, he hurriedly said, "I will tell my master first, you go and prepare wine and meat. You probably won't be able to leave tomorrow. Let's have a chat while eating."

Shi Daizi said, "You are enjoying it." Just as he was about to agree, he saw Lu Dayou's figure, his eyes lit up and he smiled, "I'll ask Liuhouer, you can report to the master."

Gao Genming walked to Yue Buqun's room in a hurry, and turned around and told Shi Daizi: "Remember to buy wine, you must be good."

He knocked on Yue Buqun's door. Yue Buqun was making tea as usual, but the tea was the local coarse tea provided by the inn for free. He heard the sound and said "Come in", his hands kept moving.

After a while, he looked up and saw that it was Gao Geanmei and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

But Gao Geanmei thought about it before saying, "It seems that something big happened."

Yue Buqun took a sip of tea, looked at Gao Genming's expression, and smiled unconsciously. He said lightly: "What are you panic? Tell me slowly."

Ning Zhongze heard the voice of his words, and also came out of the inner room, sat next to Yue Buqun, and said, "Genming, have you caused trouble?"

Gao Genming was about to say what he had heard, but when he heard Ning Zhongze's words, he couldn't help but feel depressed. What does it have to do with me. He said aggrievedly: "I'm here only in the afternoon, so where can I cause trouble?" As soon as he said that, he became even more depressed and quickly changed his words, "I never cause trouble..."

Ning Zhongze smiled and said, "Then I'll feel relieved. Tell me, what big thing happened?"

Gao Genming turned his head and looked around. His pretending look made Yue Buqun unable to see it. He immediately coughed lightly and said, "Why don't you tell me quickly."

Gao Genming sighed, half low and half mysterious in his tone, and a little more gloating out of thin air: "The leader of Qingcheng Sect is dead."

Yue Buqun's face suddenly became gloomy. His mind turned and suddenly said, "Who did you hear me? Is it reliable?"

Seeing that Yue Buqun's reaction was completely different from what he imagined, Gao Genming quickly put away his gloating emotions for the time being and was about to share with Shi Daizi later. He answered honestly: "It's not wrong. Senior Brother Yan He, the Hengshan Sect, said in person. The Hengshan Sect members had already left, but they heard the news, but were ready to return. When the master arrived, Senior Brother Yan had just left. It is estimated that even if the Hengshan Sect members were not in the evening, they would enter the town tomorrow."

Yue Buqun was silent for a while and asked, "How did he die?"

Gao Gean Akira shook his head and said, "This is not clear."

Yue Buqun thought for a moment and said, "Since Hengshan Sect is coming, we are not in a hurry to leave. Genming, please continue to let the brothers rest well, and we will stay in this town for the time being tomorrow."

Gao Geming responded: "Yes." He thought that it was indeed a guess.

When Gao Genming left, Ning Zhongze looked at her husband and asked softly: "Senior Brother, Yu Canghai has done many evil things, and he has the best of death. Why are you so worried when you hear the news of his death?"

Yue Buqun looked serious and said softly: "Yu Canghai is not a pity to die, but his death at this time makes me feel really uneasy."

Ning Zhongze said: "What are you referring to? The Qingcheng Sect has always been alone. Yu Canghai is dead, so it should not cause us any trouble."

Yue Buqun sighed and said, "I don't mean that." He stood up, turned around, and looked at a painting in the middle of the guest room. The inn was arty, but this painting was obviously impossible to be written by a famous artist. The ancient pavilion in the painting was sent farewell to a friend. The two people who left were quite interesting. One was Emei Boguan, and he was a Taoist priest. The man standing by the boat was a monk, with his expression and temperament, and he was all vulgar. Just on his head, there were fewer scars left when he was taking the ordination.

Yue Buqun stared at the monk and gradually disappeared his vulgar expression, but it seemed that there were more swords and swords. He sighed and said, "Junior sister, do you still remember the monks we saw when we came?"

Ning Zhongze said: "Of course I remember, senior brother, have you thought of something?"

Yue Buqun was silent for a moment and said slowly: "I'm worried that there will be a gust of storm in the world."

Ning Zhongze frowned and said, "Do they have anything to do with Yu Canghai's death?"

Yue Buqun did not answer positively, and he said lightly: "Have you noticed that they are already very old?"

Ning Zhongze thought for a while and said, "Yes, they are all middle-aged people." She completely ignored the old monk who was old. Obviously, in her opinion, the old monk should not be a Shaolin disciple, but just an ordinary old monk who eats vegetarian food and chants Buddha's name.

Seeing that his wife didn't seem to understand what she meant, Yue Buqun sighed and said, "You see, most of them have long hair, so he just thinks they are ordinary Shaolin lay disciples, right?"

Ning Zhongze looked at her with a surprised look and said, "Aren't they?"

Yue Buqun said: "Shaolin Temple is a Buddhist Zen temple and a martial arts sect, but they themselves have always regarded promoting Buddhism as the foundation. Shaolin Temple is famous all over the world, so many people want to enter Shaolin Temple to practice martial arts. Therefore, in order to prevent anyone from coming to practice martial arts, Shaolin Temple specially set up strict rules for returning to the world that are impossible for other temples to have."

Ning Zhongze nodded and said, "That's right, lay disciples can return to secular life at any time after practicing for more than three years. However, monks, unless they pass through the Arhat Formation, they will not even be able to go down the mountain without even going down the mountain privately. This rule is known to everyone in the world." In fact, there is a third method, that is, monks can escape from Shaolin Temple if they violate the precepts. However, this is expelled from the mountain gate, which is not considered returning to secular life. If the Precepts Academy thinks that this person deliberately escapes from Shaolin Temple with this method, he might have to leave his martial arts.

Yue Buqun said: "Relatively speaking, although lay disciples come and go freely, it is much more difficult for them to learn profound martial arts." He paused and continued, "The monks we saw along the way are mostly over forty years old. Most of the Shaolin lay disciples just need to learn the art of making a living. How could they survive until this age? I think if they were Shaolin disciples, they should have left Shaolin in another way."

Ning Zhongze opened his mouth slightly, so surprised that he couldn't even speak. She was stunned for a moment before saying, "You mean, they are all Shaolin disciples who have broken through the Arhat Formation, and Shaolin Temple-protecting Arhats! How is this possible?"

Yue Buqun said lightly: "How is it impossible?"

Ning Zhongze calmed down and argued: "Even if they are really the Arhats in the Arhat Hall, how could they go back to Shaolin Temple together? Shaolin Temple is the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world. Does anyone dare to make the idea of ​​Shaolin Temple?"

Yue Buqun smiled strangely, let out a "hum" and said, "You haven't thought about why Chong'er and Lou'er went to Shaolin Temple?"

Ning Zhongze was shocked. She stood up and was about to speak, but Yue Buqun said quietly: "Yu Canghai is also the leader of a sect. Didn't he die suddenly? Even if Shaolin Temple is the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world, it is not unrivaled."

Ning Zhongze listened to Yue Buqun's analysis and felt frightened. She said tremblingly: "What do you mean is that the people who killed Yu Canghai are also going to kill the people who went to Shaolin Temple?"

"That may not be." Yue Buqun was so calm that he was terrifying. "There are at least twenty people in the world who can kill Yu Canghai. There are probably only one who can make Shaolin Temple face a great enemy..."

Ning Zhongze was shocked and blurted out: "The leader of the Demon Sect, Dongfang Bubai! Yes, Yu Canghai is naturally not Dongfang Bubai's opponent, Dongfang Bubai killed Yu Canghai."

Yue Buqun listened to his wife's words, but he disagreed in his heart: Why did Dongfang Bubai kill Yu Canghai? Yu Canghai and others were probably not in Dongfang Bubai's eyes at all. He thought calmly, knowing that Dongfang Bubai's possibility of killing people was not high, but he didn't know why, but hoped that this was the truth. Because a faint uneasiness gradually grew in his heart. The resolute face of a young man appeared in front of him, and the outline gradually became blurred, but his firm determination was so heartbroken that Yue Buqun couldn't help but feel frightened: Could it be him who killed Yu Canghai?

Early the next morning, Mr. Mo Da from Hengshan Sect did return to this town with his disciples from Hengshan Sect. Yue Buqun and Mo Da met in a low-key and depressing manner. They said goodbye to each other yesterday and met again today, but the situation was very different. When they parted yesterday, both of them were happy. When they met suddenly today, they realized the danger because of the sudden change. This danger was not directly targeting the Hengshan Sect and the Huashan Sect, but if they did not respond to this, they might sooner or later attack the two factions.

The fuse that made them stop was Yu Canghai's death, but what made them decide was Shaolin Temple's sensational enemy.

The two of them found a teahouse, sat down quietly, and took out these important matters in the world one by one to analyze. Because of Tang Jinlou and the winner of the Five Yue Alliance, Yue Buqun and Mr. Mo Da were straightforward when talking about these things. Obviously, both of them had regarded each other as their strong support. When talking about the Arhats of the Temple, Yue Buqun looked moved. Two monks walked upstairs, carrying thick bags on their bodies, and were about thirty years old. When they came to this teahouse, they sat down straightly. After a moment, the shopkeeper came over. They spoke kindly and asked for a pot of tea worth two cents.
