Chapter 303 Zen Master Zhenyou, King Huyi Ming
"Good!"

Amidst the roaring sound of tigers in the valley like waves, an old but loud voice came from the top of Qi Jing's head. It was as firm and stable as the rocks on the shore. No matter how windy or waves hit me, I remained unmoved.

The young man followed the sound and saw a deep hole suddenly opened in the stone wall on the west side of the valley.

A bare-chested old monk, wearing only a tiger skin skirt around his waist, stepped out of the cave, took a few steps in the air, and then flew straight down, hitting the ground with a thud, causing rocks to break immediately. There was a huge splash and smoke.

Bannu was so stimulated by the smoke that he snorted hard, while Zuowu Banner had already soared into the air, blocking all the gravel that shot through the air like a rain of arrows.

Qi Jingzhi stared at the old monk in the tiger skin skirt who strode out of the smoke, but saw that the man had a square face, a raised forehead, round eyes and a tiger beard, which was somewhat similar to Taoist Tiger Lord.

It's just that this old monk is old after all. He is similar to the father of the old army. His muscles and bones are still there, but his flesh and blood are withered. He is far less strong than Taoist Hujun. A strange feeling of kindness and calm.

Looking at the old monk, Qi Jingzhi suddenly had a thought in his heart: "If the tiger spirit in Xiaosongshan could uphold the right path and seek good results, he might one day be able to develop a spirit and aura like the old monk."

"I've met Zen Master Zhenyou!" Medicine Master Zuo took the initiative to greet him and put his hands together in a respectful salute.

The old monk suddenly stopped, lifted up the tiger skin skirt around his waist, and then waved his hand casually: "I heard that the Serpent Flag was snatched away?"

Pharmacist Zuo's face twitched, he lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows and said: "This junior is not good at learning and has failed to live up to the high expectations of all the eminent monks. I am really ashamed!"

"Bullshit high hopes! The scheme in the temple was simply out of whim. The poor monk was very unfavorable about it at the beginning, especially because it was too petty!"

Zen Master Zhenyou ranks first among the Four Idiots of Fuya, but he does not call himself Lao Na like Zen Master Zhenjue, who has gorgeous clothes and solemn treasures. Instead, he calls himself a poor monk, and his speech is even more straightforward.

"Then I just offered the snake flag, but I went to superfluous measures and sent the Xiuling tiger to ride over to make people feel uncomfortable. How can the king and Lord Langya lack people to carry the flag?"

"On the contrary, you, Medicine Master Zuo, originally advised you to follow the poor monk in seclusion in the mountains and participate in the Tiger Zen. But you want to covet the power of the deep sand general and do not hesitate to feed him with your own body... What happens now? Hey! There are mountains and gods outside the mountains. If there is a God above, won’t we encounter something even more ruthless?”

Pharmacist Zuo felt as if he had been forced to drink a large bowl of medicinal soup. When he opened his mouth, there was a hint of bitterness: "What this junior met was not even a serious god, but... just a sword ghost!"

"Huh? Idiots and idiots haven't realized it yet!"

Zen Master Zhen You resented the inability of iron to become steel: "What's wrong with the sword ghost? To put it bluntly, your Shensha general is just the leader of the Yaaksha evil ghost. How can he be better than others?"

"Lifting the Golden Bridge and ferrying people to become Buddhas...are just means for preaching and converting falsehood into reality! If you really have that ability, why don't you save yourself first?"

Pharmacist Zuo suddenly raised his head, not speechless, but still quite shocked: "This..."

He turned to look at Qi Jingzhi, who was calmly standing aside. The meaning was very obvious, there was an outsider from a Taoist sect here!

"What is this? You are obsessed with the appearance of a general, and you don't see the true heart of Shensha. You ruined the protector god who is good at eradicating disasters and eliminating attachments. How can you still have the nerve to look at others?"

While scolding Master Zuo, Zen Master Zhenyou glared at Qi Jingzhi, Qi Huchan and Ban Nu with a pair of tiger eyes, with surprise flashing across his eyes from time to time.

"Each family has different names of protector gods and different schools of Dharma. The holy way likes to attract peace and protect the five spirits. The Taoist school likes to appoint spiritual officials and train the outsiders. Buddhism also absorbs the protectors of the outsiders and uses the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to transform their wrath. The appearance of respect and terror is called the King of Ming. For example..."

The old monk wearing a tiger skin skirt suddenly turned his eyes and focused on Qi Jingzhi: "For example, the Ming King in Tiger Clothes!"

"In order to save all sentient beings including the eight tribes of gods and dragons, Universal Worthy Guangming Buddha transformed into the tiger-robed King Ming, wrapped in the fire of wisdom, illuminating the spiritual world and eliminating the karma of all sentient beings!"

The young man was slightly startled when he heard the words, and there seemed to be fire in his eyes, but he just smiled casually: "Junior Qi Jingzhi was born in the Xianyu Xuandu lineage of the Taoist sect, and he practiced the sect's secret heart candle Dinghuo. Previously, I have never heard of the Ming King in Tiger Clothes, or the fire of wisdom that illuminates the mind and eliminates karma."

Seeing Zen Master Zhenyou's eyes shift to his shoulder, Qi Jingzhi pointed at Qi Hu, who was wearing tiger skin monk clothes and red cassocks, and said: "This is Qi's younger brother. Born according to the law, turning into a little monk is just a joke."

The reason why the young man was eager to clear things up was because there was the matter of the Little Songshan Tiger Spirit in front of him, and he thought it was best not to let the old monk in the tiger skin skirt have any misunderstandings.

It's just that Zen Master Zhenyou specifically mentioned King Tiger Yi Ming, especially the fire of wisdom, which finally aroused Qi Jingzhi's interest. However, at this time, the other party's intention was still unclear, but it was difficult to ask for advice.

Zen Master Zhenyou laughed and did not feel dissatisfied with the young man's attitude at all. Instead, he picked up what he had said before and continued: "In the eyes of the poor monk, the so-called protector of the Dharma, no matter how whitewashed it is on the outside, is actually a thug raised by his master on the inside. For your own use, to ward off internal and external demons.”

As he spoke, he pointed at Bannu, obviously classifying this black and white tiger-striped beast as one of the captive thugs.

"Or... just like the Ming King of Buddhism, the master puts on a mask and changes his clothes and goes off in person!"

When saying this, Zen Master Zhenyou actually pointed at the young monk.

"For example, the Ming King in Tiger Clothes who was transformed by Universal Worthy Guangming Buddha has three dharma appearances: white tiger robe, red tiger robe and black tiger robe. The body color, dharma robes, dharma implements and handprints are all different, and the methods of saving sentient beings are also different. .”

The meaning of the old monk in the tiger skin skirt is very obvious, that is, in his opinion, Qi Hu Chan is to Qi Jingzhi, just like the tiger-clad Ming King is to Samantabhadra Guangming Buddha.

Qi Jingzhi blinked and didn't take this coincidence to heart.

There are many methods of practice in the world, and it is inevitable that there are similarities among them, so there is no need to bother yourself.

However, if we really trace the origin, the little monk is indeed the most angry and ferocious side of the young man's heart. He sharpens his sword under the moon, holds his own sword, kills traitors by day, and kills evil spirits at night!
Although Qi Huchan gradually came up with various little ideas of his own after establishing their identity with the "Tibetan Front Method", and even dared to take the initiative to refuse the fate of being named the God of the Lingtai, and became closer to an independent creature, the two brothers The connection to spiritual origin remains deep-rooted.

Seeing that Qi Jingzhi did not deny it again, Zen Master Zhenyou smiled on his face.

He turned to look at Zuo Yaoshi: "It's just that thugs are just thugs after all. In the final analysis, they still have to take advantage of the master's power. To put it bluntly, it's just a fox pretending to be a tiger. If the master himself can't stand up, how hard do you expect these minions to work?"

"In short, the weak one is not General Shensha, but you Zuo Yaoshi; the strong one is not the sword ghost, but the man who wields the sword!"

In front of Qi Jingzhi, an outsider, the lecturer monk of Fuya Temple showed amazing acumen, wisdom and magnanimity.

Especially the last few words were so blunt that Pharmacist Zuo's face became a little darker.

He was silent for a moment, and finally nodded heavily: "The pharmacist has learned a lesson!" "Do you really understand?"

Zen Master Zhenyou suddenly grinned: "Actually, if someone captures the flag this time, you don't have to blame yourself too much. After all, the Shensha General's suppression of the Snake Flag is indeed a bit weak."

After saying that, the old monk put his hand into the tiger skin skirt as if no one else was around, felt between his legs for a long time, and actually pulled out a strange-looking purple four-legged snake.

The reason why this four-legged snake is weird is because its purple body, which is no more than the length of a hand, actually has two small red horse heads.

Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi's eyes flashed with surprise, but he thought of the snake god with a purple robe and a red crown, a snake body and two heads.

Zuo Yaoshi, who once kept the Snake Flag for Geshu Dashi, obviously had the same association and couldn't help but ask: "Is this?"

"This is a mass of ten thousand miles of essence that the poor monk found on the Xiuling Ancient Road. It is just right for a general like you to use."

"Thousands of miles away, the essence of the horse is also the dragon body with two heads. Seeing that it is auspicious, it is appropriate for the army to march."

Zen Master Zhenyou was obviously talking about lucky things like the carcass of an elephant or an old dog, but there was a look of regret on his face.

"This mass of thousands of miles of spiritual energy has taken shape, is about to be born, and has even achieved the body of a dragon. However, it was born in the wrong place. As soon as it made some movement, it was noticed by the tiger evil in Xiuling, and it was forced to be born early. , so that it fell short of the mark and failed to truly give birth to spirituality, and became what it is now, neither death nor life."

After saying that, Zen Master Zhenyou shook his head and handed the Wanli Essence in his hand to Zuo Yaoshi.

From what Qi Jingzhi could see, Zuo Yaoshi's expression was very exciting at this time. Besides surprise, there was also a trace of disgust that was tried hard to hide.

"Idiot! Didn't you just say you were taught? Why are you still so obsessed with appearances?"

The old monk in the tiger skin skirt snorted dissatisfiedly: "Whether this thing grows from the ground or from the crotch of a poor monk, is it really that important?"

Pharmacist Zuo looked embarrassed, and quickly took Wanli Jingqi with his hands: "Zen Master, I'm sorry, it's my junior who is obsessed with me again!"

Seeing his appearance, Qi Jingzhi knew that most of the guards under Zuo Yaoshi's jurisdiction would be renamed "Wanli Guards".

There is the Gou Qian of the two stars of heaven above, and Wanli with the dragon's body and two heads below, controlling the domineering power of the snake... On the surface, it is just two young captains of Gou Chen competing, but in fact, there are experts from all sides hidden behind the scenes. How much planning and gaming.

It's just that compared to Zen Master Zhenyou, Lord Yaoguang, who is backed by the Qizheng Pavilion of Daqi, is obviously better. He can control even the God of Snakes in the "Gou Jie Tian Royal Technique". Against this group named "Wanli" The horse spirit is not to mention.

Pharmacist Zuo naturally thought of this and immediately informed the old monk in the tiger-skin skirt.

"It doesn't matter! If we can't do it hard, let's do it softly!"

Unexpectedly, Zen Master Zhenyou just pondered for a moment, and then waved his hand nonchalantly: "Wanli and Weishi are both Dragon Qi and Water, and are naturally close to each other. You are also a Xiuling Tiger Rider who swept the mountains and forests, so it is easy for him to do it." Get their favor. When you have nothing to do in the future, you might as well go boating and meditate on Tianqi Yuan more often, and you may gain something."

"Gou Qian is the guardian of heaven, and Wanli is the guardian of earth. It's like the fight between Sword Demon and General Shensha. It's still unclear who will be stronger and who will be weaker in the future. It all depends on your own methods!"

As soon as these words came out, Zuo Yaoshi was immediately convinced.

Zen Master Zhenyou said again: "Don't talk nonsense, quickly swallow this mass of essence with the method of eating clouds! Otherwise, once you leave the Shiweng Valley, you will provoke the tiger evil again and scare the whole mountain!"

Zuo Yaoshi's face fell. Even though he was already prepared in his mind, he still managed to gather his energy for a long time before crushing Wanli's essence and slowly inhaling it into his nose.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zen Master Zhenyou suddenly looked at Qi Huchan again.

"I find you very pleasing to the poor monk. I have here a piece of "Heart Mantra of King Ming King Vajra in Tiger Clothes", which originated from the Sacrifice Cliff of Canyue Temple in Qixia Mountain. It is the Taoist lineage of the third generation of King Ming."

"If good men and women can always uphold this mantra, they will be able to realize the true meaning, prevent curses, burn out wrong views, and subdue arrogance and other five poisons."

"If the true Buddha-nature is profound and suddenly enlightened, it may be possible to eliminate the two obstacles, achieve the fruit of perfect Bodhi of the three bodies, and achieve the Dharma body of the tiger-robed King Vajra Buddha, which can fulfill the wishes of all living beings and lead all living beings to The compassion and power of the paradise of Buddha.”

"Haha, doesn't it sound more reliable than General Shensha who can help people become Buddhas?"

The old monk in tiger-skin skirt grinned at the young monk, showing his big white teeth: "I wonder if you would like to learn this tiger-skin mantra?"

Hearing this, the young monk's eyes suddenly widened. He was both excited and frightened, so he had no choice but to turn to his elder brother for help.

Qi Jingzhi sensed his younger brother's thoughts, and faintly heard his master's evil words in his ears: "In the future, when you go down the mountain, don't listen to other people's nonsense. If someone has bad intentions and deliberately leads you astray, that's terrible." It’s too late to regret it!”

So, the young man smiled warmly at Zen Master Zhenyou: "Has Zen Master ever dabbled in the "Fishing Chapter" of the Demon-Suppressing Academy?"

The old monk in the tiger skin skirt was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "You little kid is very suspicious!"

"But it's no wonder. You had a relationship with Fuya Temple before, so it's normal to have such concerns. And if you really want to say it, Buddhism's mission to the world is indeed to lay bait for the Lord Buddha, to catch the true from all living beings. Buddha!"

The old monk was still astonishingly candid. He reached out and pointed at the auspicious fur on the young man's body: "However, when Buddhism spreads the Dharma, it must be in accordance with the ruler of the world, otherwise it will be difficult to establish the Dharma."

"What's more, you are a little brat who has perfected the appearance of a Taoist guest to your bones. What's the use of a poor monk trying to catch you? Not only has he greatly offended the king, but he has also forged a deadly feud with Xianyu Mountain. It is really harmful but not beneficial at all!" "

After hearing this, Qi Jingzhi still did not let down his guard, but he had to admit that what the other party said was very reasonable.

He thought for a while and then said straightforwardly: "No reward for no merit, not to mention the feud between the two families? The Zen Master loves Qi's younger brother so much, but what else should we ask our brothers to do?"

Zen Master Zhenyou grinned when he heard this: "What's wrong with receiving no reward for no merit? Are you trying to say that a poor monk has no benefit and can't afford to stay early and show his courtesy for nothing?"
