Chapter 218: Broken Oath
The joy and expectation on the face of the old monk Kongji stagnated slightly, and turned into a sigh of relief: "This...didn't I say that I would wait until you understood the mystery? You haven't done it yet..."
"Bear!"
Deep red flames of anger appeared in Chen Yi's eyes again, spreading instantly, and blazing blood flames were vomiting all over his body, as if boundless anger was sweeping over him, which made people frightened.
"King Kong broke the precept... As expected, as expected..."
However, the old monk Kong Ji’s face was full of joy.
The bloody flames all over his body disappeared as soon as they appeared. Chen Yidao said: "I can defeat the six gods and see the Tathagata. It's just two sets of martial arts. What's the mystery?"
He has a very loud tone now.
He barely learned one of the Six Divine Techniques, but he even despised the Tathagata Divine Palm.
"Well, yes, yes, junior brother, you do have some talent. In that case, you should work harder here and strive to gain enlightenment as soon as possible. Well, I won't disturb you anymore."
The old monk Kong Ji put away his unstable expression, maintained his abbot tone, and was about to leave.
Whoosh~
As soon as the figure flashed, Chen Yi was already standing in front of him, his face expressionless: "Brother Abbot, do you want to break your promise?"
The white beard of the old monk Kongji trembled: "Nonsense! How can I be that kind of person? You have only learned one form of the Six Gods Art, so what are you proud of? How can you be considered to have understood the mystery? When will you understand the Six Gods Art and learn the Tathagata Divine Palm?
Bar."
Chen Yi narrowed his eyes when he saw him cheating.
Not to be outdone, the old monk Kong Ji raised his finger-long white eyebrows without wind, and his eyes sparkled.
Chen Yi suddenly laughed: "Brother Abbot, I saw before that all the nephews are pretty, thin and weak. There should be little money in the temple, and they can barely afford food, right?"
"Another nonsense! Our temple has been passed down for thousands of years. Whatever you take out is worth a lot of money. How can you not even be able to afford food?"
Chen Yi nodded and said: "Well, it must be that the abbot senior brother is of a high level and regards money as dirt, or he is afraid that after selling his belongings, he will be scolded so hard that he can't hold his head up when he meets the Shaolin ancestors, so he let the master
My nephews are so hungry."
"..."
Chen Yi didn't seem to notice his old pig liver-colored face and continued: "What if you tell me that from now on, the food and clothing expenses in the temple will be all the responsibility of the junior brother, and there will never be a shortage of anyone?"
A flash of light flashed in the eyes of the old monk Kong Ji, and his face suddenly returned to calmness. He stroked his white beard and said solemnly: "Well, since you have learned the Six Divine Techniques, it is only a matter of time for you to comprehend the Tathagata Divine Palm. This matter will eventually fall to you.
On my shoulders, it doesn’t hurt to tell you first.”
"..."
Afraid that he would become angry due to shame, Chen Yi decided not to expose him.
"well……"
The old monk Kong Ji sighed and slowly walked out of the hall, followed by Chen Yi.
Standing on the high stone steps in front of the Thousand Buddhas Hall, you can see almost half of the Shaolin Temple in front of you.
The old monk Kong Ji pointed at the ancient, desolate, dilapidated and decaying buildings everywhere, and finally stopped at the mostly broken martial arts arena.
With a heavy expression: "Junior brother, look at it, do you know why Shaolin has become like this?"
It is clear……
Chen Yicheng said: "I was beaten."
"..."
Old monk Kong Ji now feels that this newly recruited junior brother is good at everything, but he is too disrespectful!
"More than a hundred years ago, a senior monk in our temple suddenly vomited blood while in Dingzhong. The disciples were surprised and asked, but it turned out that it was the senior monk who had caught a glimpse of the secret in Dingzhong..."
"The sacred monk used his mortal body to glimpse the heavenly secrets, and suffered backlash. However, the sacred monk was locked in death. A few years later, the place where he sat was suddenly opened, alarming the monks in the temple."
"The monks arrived, only to find that the divine monk looked up to the sky, smiled miserably, and shouted three times: Great calamity! Then his body burned with glass fire, and in an instant, it turned into nothingness, leaving only one hundred and eight golden relics.
"
"Later, the monks discovered that warnings had been left at the place where the divine monk retreated. It turned out that the divine monk had glimpsed the heavenly secrets and knew that there would be a catastrophe in the world, so he stayed in seclusion for several years. With the thought of certain death, he
The divine monk may have really seen the catastrophe revealed by the heavenly secret. He lamented that he was unable to recover, and was afraid that trying to detect the heavenly secret would bring disaster to Shaolin. He only left two warnings and then passed away on his own..."
The old monk Kong Ji sighed again: "It's just that maybe there is really God's will in the dark. The monk's move angered the God above, and Shaolin has been plagued by disasters since then."
"First, there was an endless debate in the temple over the warning left by the sacred monk. One person believed that the Buddha was compassionate and should come out of the mountain to save all sentient beings. The other believed that the Buddha was born in the world and should not act recklessly in the mortal world and disobey God's will. Otherwise, he would be like the sacred monk.
Even if you have great cultivation, you will lose it all in one day."
"Compassion and salvation are the great vows of Buddhism, and we should follow them."
“But Shaolin’s thousand-year heritage cannot be ignored.”
"There were endless arguments between the two, and the temple was no longer quiet. They started arguing based on Buddhism, and finally developed into fighting for victory..."
Kong Ji said, with a look of sadness in his eyes.
"In such a fight, there will inevitably be injuries and deaths. Some people are dissatisfied and break out of the temple. There are also people who are so disheartened that they cannot come out of seclusion. Shaolin's vitality has been severely damaged..."
Chen Yi remained silent.
This situation was much more serious and cruel than what he saw from the gray screen. Come to think of it, it was more than that.
really……
The old monk Kong Ji added: "At this moment, a mysterious man broke into Shaolin and defeated thirteen eminent monks in our temple. No one in the temple could defeat him. Half of the thousand-year-old temple was destroyed in this battle!"
He pointed at the dilapidated buildings and martial arts arena with an expression that was both sad and smiling.
"He even forced me, Shaolin, to make a big oath to seal the mountain for five hundred years!"
"For five hundred years, Shaolin is not allowed to have any disciples leave the mountain, nor is it allowed to recruit more disciples. He said that since he defeated thirteen people, from now on, Shaolin will not be able to accept more than thirteen disciples!"
Chen Yi looked at the sad and smiling expression of this senior brother, and frowned: "So, senior brother, if you wanted to accept me as a disciple that day, you broke this oath?"
The old monk Kong Ji turned his head and laughed: "That man also said that if he breaks this oath, unless someone in Shaolin can defeat him, there is no need to keep even the number of thirteen. Junior brother, do you know that?
what for?"
Chen Yi raised his eyebrows: "Of course we will destroy Shaolin and leave no chickens or dogs behind."
Kong Ji nodded: "I really have selfish motives for accepting you as my disciple. Now, I will give you another chance. If you are afraid, just leave. Although that person acts domineeringly, he also keeps his promise. In the past few decades, there have been
Shaolin disciples broke out and had nothing to do with Shaolin from then on, but they also lived peacefully."
"Senior brother..."
"Well, tell me!"
"Then I'm really leaving?"
"Go ahead, I don't blame you."
"Senior brother, can you let go first?"
Chen Yi looked at his cassock being held tightly in his hand...
"..." Old monk Kongji just ignored it and still held on tightly.
"So, senior brother, don't tempt people casually in the future. There are many things that you can't stand the temptation of."
Chen Yi rolled his eyes and said, "You should tell me what warning the divine monk left behind a hundred years ago?"
This is what he cares about.
To be honest, he really couldn't think of anything that would make so many so-called "experts" so scared to death that they would talk about God's will and disaster all day long, and then do some inexplicable things.
, a stupid move.
It is said that it is to prevent the catastrophe, but in fact it is constantly pushing everyone into the pit...
"cough……"
