The martial arts start saved the little dragon girl

Chapter 80 Origin
After hesitating for a moment, Yang Guo held back, he may not believe that the old monk is this Chan Master Duheng, but since he proposed to wait for a few days when the situation becomes clearer, and he is not even in a hurry to see Abbot Hongye, he had no choice but to listen to what he said and wait and see what happened .

Moreover, at this moment, the South Shaolin Temple seems to be divided into different factions with different demands, and it is not known which faction in the South Shaolin Temple this Zen Master Duzhen belongs to.

He may be kind-hearted and compassionate, and he does not want to be affected by Sunshine who has come from afar and is related to Lin Yuantu; but he may also be a Kongxiang faction at the same time, who wants to expand the Southern Shaolin Temple to dominate the southern martial arts.

There is no conflict between character and position, and there are good and bad people in any camp.

So...still wait and see, Yang Guo thought.

Fortunately, there are not too many details disclosed at present. In the South Shaolin Temple, he and Qu Feiyan are only the distinguished guests of Zen Master Du Heng, and their safety is definitely guaranteed.

Yang Guo said: "Zen Master, of course I can trust you. I listen to you and stay in your guest room first. When you say it is convenient, I will come to see Abbot Hongye and ask for my affairs.

Fortunately, your room is clean and the food is delicious. We live in a very comfortable place, let alone a few days - a year or a half is fine, and we even want to stay for a long time! "

During the conversation, Yuan An, the well-known guest monk Yang Guo was following, had disappeared from their sight.But Yang Guo followed him to find the "old monk" Chan Master Du Heng, so he didn't care.

Chan Master Du Heng nodded, as if he didn't know that Yang Guo's last words were just joking, so he replied solemnly:

"If benefactor Yang wants to stay for a long time, it is naturally the best. You can stay for as long as you want. Although our South Shaolin Temple is barren, we can still entertain you."

While speaking, Zen Master Du Heng moved slowly and walked forward.

Yang Guo followed him, walking outside the South Shaolin Temple and in the "city".

Chan Master Du Heng has been practicing Zen for many years, with a peaceful mind and a very kind face.

But at this moment, there was a hint of sadness between his brows, looking at the surrounding scene and people, he was silent.

Affected by his emotions, Yang Guo felt a little desolate, and suddenly felt that this city deep in the cracks between the surrounding mountains was extremely rare: the outside is full of desires, and there is more tranquility in this city.

Chan Master Du Heng was in front of him, and slowly—as if confiding to Yang Guo or talking to himself—said:
"Twenty or so years ago, a group of soldiers came to our southern Shaolin Temple, claiming that they were deserters from the war in the north, and traveled tens of thousands of miles to Putian, begging us to take them in.

This is a group of people with great backbone. They have not harmed any civilians along the way, but they have traveled all over the world, but no one is willing to take them in.

Abbot Hongye asked them to stay, and they voluntarily became monks and guarded our South Shaolin Temple. "

Yang Guo listened carefully to Chan Master Du Heng's words, now said: "They are the first batch of outsiders accepted by South Shaolin Temple? There was no such city at that time, right?"

Chan Master Du Heng said: "Well, since then, many outsiders have come to our temple admiringly, some have made a special trip to ordain or become a monk, and some just quietly reclaimed wasteland and built houses next to the South Shaolin Temple.

My master, Abbot Hongye, is a very good person. Of course he accepts those who are sincere to the Buddha, but there are not a few who just want to take refuge in our South Shaolin Temple to avoid disasters and live safely. He also allows them to settle down. "

When Yang Guo heard him talk about the origin of the small town outside the South Shaolin Temple, he felt a sense of vicissitudes, and he couldn't help being deeply moved.

Zen Master Du Heng continued: "In the beginning, there were only a few scattered people, who cultivated a small piece of land to support themselves, and gradually there were more people, but we didn't take it to heart.

We don't know when it started, but we suddenly discovered that there are so many people gathered next to the South Shaolin Temple where we have been peaceful for thousands of years. "

What Yang Guo thinks is that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Many people gather here spontaneously, and many problems will arise. If they are not resolved, major conflicts will form.

Chan Master Du Heng said again: "Everyone has his own ability, in our Southern Shaolin Temple everyone is devoted to practicing Buddhism, but we can't see anything.

But there are more people gathered outside the temple, and the talents of some eminent monks in our temple are revealed...

They first reorganized the monks in the temple, and based on the team of deserters, they used the method of army drills to train monks with martial arts skills, and raised a group of elite monk soldiers.

With these monks and soldiers as their backing, the rest of the things will be much easier.

Only then did we know that the fields outside were all ours, and those people reclaimed the wasteland, but they wanted to pay us instead, and they had to give us [-]% of the food first...

Abbot Hongye originally didn’t want these worldly things. As monks, it is enough to have food, food and clothing, so why do we need so much?

But those people said that after collecting the money and food, we don't keep it ourselves, but to support the monks and soldiers to maintain the peace in the city, so that those people in the city who are bullied outside can live and work in peace.

Nothing seems wrong.Everyone praised us as holy monks and living Buddhas who saved the lives of many people in the city.Abbot Hongye let these talented people develop their talents.

We never thought at the time that the talents of these people in the South Shaolin Temple may not be a good thing. When we protect some people, we will hurt others, and even in the end, it seems that everything may become worse... "

Chan Master Duheng said a long speech.

Yang Guo listened quietly, and understood that the city under his feet was built by many helpless and industrious people. Under the management of some wise monks from the South Shaolin Temple, life became more and more prosperous, but it also planted some hidden dangers.

This hidden danger has always been there.It's just buried in people's hearts when the time is not ripe, and when it is conceived, it will destroy everything that everyone has worked so hard to create.

As a person who knows more than a thousand years of history, Yang Guo knows that such things have existed since the birth of human beings, and they will never be avoided.

He said: "Zen Master, I don't understand Zen principles, but I always hear people say let nature take its course. According to our common people, you don't have to worry too much about doing your best and obeying the destiny."

Yang Guo didn't know what to say, seeing the old monk's lonely face, he tried to persuade him.

Chan Master Du Heng smiled, and said softly: "It's the monk, I'm too persistent. Our Buddhists say that the five aggregates are all empty. I didn't expect to ask Master Yang Shi to let me go."

Yang Guo hurriedly said: "Don't dare. The kid is talking nonsense, the master laughed."

Chan Master Du Heng turned his head, glanced at the busy and smiling residents in the city, put his hands together, faced the west, and said devoutly: "My Buddha is merciful, great merciful."

Yang Guo saw that he was extremely pious when he spoke, like a Buddha manifesting his holiness, and he couldn't help but be influenced by it, thinking: If the north and the south fight each other, the world will really be in chaos, and the people will be in dire straits.

But this kind of large-scale matter has always been something that peerless heroes have to consider, and it only flashed through his mind.

Yang Guo is just a little-known person in this arena. For him now, the most urgent thing is how to live well and take care of the people he cares about.
