Starting boy Ma Kongqun

Chapter 99 In Shaolin Temple, in front of the Zen Ceremony Stage

Shaolin, Bodhidharma Cave.

Abbot Xinhu of Shaolin walked slowly into the cave, accompanied only by his most valued disciple, Monk Dabei.

When he arrived at the cave, he said to his third junior brother Xinzhou, who was sitting cross-legged facing the cave wall: "Junior brother, you ordered Disciple Dabei to call Brother Yu to come here, but what's the important matter?"

Xinzhou didn't look back and said: "Senior brother, I have been meditating here for many days and have some guesses about the theft of the scriptures, so I specially asked senior brother to come and confirm it."

Xinhu said: "What have you gained, junior brother?"

Xinzhou said: "Last time, Seventh Junior Brother accused Junior Brother Dabei of being suspected of stealing and stealing. Although it was biased, it also reminded me that the 'Sutra Storage Pavilion' is so tightly guarded that anyone who can steal scriptures silently is indeed a thief." The possibility is extremely high.”

"A traitor?" Xinhu's face changed several times, and finally he sighed, "To be honest with junior brother, brother Yu also has this guess, but he really doesn't want to think deeply in this direction."

Xinzhou said: "The reason why senior brother is so conflicted must be because he has thought of the range of suspects, but he does not want the culprit to be any one of them."

Xinhu said: "The success of stealing the scriptures for the first time may be due to coincidence; but the success of stealing the scriptures three times in a row means that the person who steals the scriptures must be able to freely enter and exit the 'Tibetan Scripture Pavilion'. The only people with this authority are you and me, the seven senior brothers. Of course, junior brother, you are stationed at the 'Sutra Collection Pavilion' all year round. If you want to steal the scriptures, you can easily copy the copies without taking the risk of taking away the originals, so you can eliminate suspicion."

Xinzhou also said: "Senior brother, as the head of Shaolin, you have the right to take away any scripture from the 'Sutra Collection Pavilion'. You don't have to steal it. You can also eliminate suspicion."

Xinhu sighed: "But the other five junior brothers have been in the same sect with you and me for at least ten years, and we know each other's moral integrity very well. Brother Yu really can't believe that any of them would do such a thing that would bring shame to our sect. thing."

Xinzhou was also deeply moved. He sighed with Xinhu, and then said: "Of course we should try to be cautious about this matter, but in the end we cannot do nothing."

Xinhu knew that this was the purpose of his coming here, so he asked: "Junior brother, does he have a plan to find out the truth?"

Xinzhou shook his head and said: "Although there is a plan, it was not thought up by stupid people like my younger brother, but by a friend of Master Nephew Dabei."

Xinhu turned to look at Monk Dabei.

Monk Dabei, who finally had a chance to speak, hurriedly bowed to his master and mentioned the strategy Ma Kongqun had mentioned to lure the snake out of its hole.

After hearing this, Xinhu pondered for a long time and asked Monk Dabei: "You have known Nama Kongqun for a long time. What do you think of this person?"

Monk Dabei knew what the master was asking and replied: "Master Qi, from what I have seen, Brother Kongqun is a very smart man who makes decisions before taking action in everything. In this matter, he may have some of his own Plan, but the most important purpose should be to show goodwill to Shaolin and to form an alliance."

His words are quite euphemistic. The so-called "make a decision before taking action" actually means "do not start early without benefit"; the so-called "showing goodwill" and "forming an alliance" are actually aimed at him, Monk Dabei, the future leader of the Shaolin Sect.

Everyone should understand these words, and Xinhu is undoubtedly one of them.

He pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "In that case, you go and invite a few junior uncles to come to my abbot to discuss matters."

Monk Dabei was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and said: "Disciple, I obey!"

After Monk Dabei left, Xinzhou said: "Brother, you actually have a more accurate suspect in your mind, right?" He was silent in his heart, and then there was a look of sadness on his face: "Among our seven brothers, Only the fourth junior brother and the seventh junior brother were monks on the way. The fourth junior brother was originally a high official in the court. He came to Shaolin to convert to Buddhism because he saw the world. Although he practiced martial arts, he only used it to strengthen his body and focused more on understanding Buddhism. Go up. Only the Seventh Junior Brother..."

Xinzhou said in a deep voice: "Although Junior Brother Xinjian is at the bottom among the seven of us, he always likes to care and support the younger generation the most, and he is the most popular among the younger generation disciples. Even Senior Brother, your disciple Dashu, because of his daily life It is more likely that he will pass on the skills on behalf of his senior brother, and it is better to be closer to him than to his senior brother. If this matter is really his handiwork, then his intentions must be huge!"

Xinhu seemed to have no intention of discussing the matter anymore. He just put his palms together and recited in a low voice: "Namo Amitabha!"

Within a few days, the news spread like wildfire that "Songyang Iron Sword" Guo Songyang once again challenged "Heavenly Sword" Ma Kongqun.

In particular, Bai Xiaosheng, who arranged the "Weapons Manual", said in public that Guo Songyang's swordsmanship has now broken through to a higher level, and the name should be changed to "Songyang Divine Sword", which is worthy of being called "Songyang Divine Sword". A powerful enemy of "Heavenly Sword".

As a result, the heroes in the world immediately raised their expectations to the top, and most of the rich and leisure people rushed to Songshan Mountain, where the battle between the two sides was taking place, as quickly as possible.

On the day of the decisive battle, six to seven hundred heroes from three mountains and five mountains gathered in the Songshan Fengchan Platform early in the morning.

Among these people there were old acquaintances and new acquaintances, as well as enemies. After meeting on Songshan Mountain, some laughed and hugged each other, and some drew swords at each other. It was noisy, chaotic, and full of people.

Seeing that the scene was getting more and more chaotic, it was almost out of control.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaosheng, who was the notary of the battle, had already anticipated this. Six of the seven great Shaolin monks came to the scene, leading [-] monks to suppress the situation and maintain order.

Looking at the six old monks who were full of spirit and brilliance, as well as the three hundred strong and strong monks who carried iron rods with six edges and eyebrows, everyone remained silent and honestly followed the instructions of the few Shaolin Zhike monks. The commanders were arranged according to their place of origin, sect, and closeness, and quietly waited for the battle to begin.

The Shaolin monks placed several rows of Taishi chairs in the clearing area closest to the Fengchan platform, but only the Sixth Shaolin monk and Bai Xiaosheng sat down.

Although there were still many empty chairs, the Zhike monks did not invite anyone to take a seat. Of course, everyone present knew that they were not qualified to sit on an equal footing with those seven people, but they did not feel dissatisfied or even make noises.

After a while, the monk Zhike, who was in charge of welcoming guests outside the crowd, shouted loudly: "Flying Swordsman is here to watch the battle!"

Everyone turned around and saw Ah Fei, who was wearing simple cloth and had a three-foot-long black rusty iron drill with thick fingers inserted into his belt, coming side by side with a pretty girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.

Everyone knows that Ah Fei is a guest of the "Wanma Hall" and has a close relationship with Ma Kongqun. It is reasonable for him to come to raid the formation for Ma Kongqun, but it is not too surprising.

Although Ah Fei is young now, after a year of fighting in the world, he has officially become one of the top masters in the world, and his status in the world is no less than that of the six major sect leaders.

Therefore, after seeing him arrive, the monk Zhike hurriedly led him and Tie Linglong, who was following to watch the excitement, to go inside. The Six Shaolin Monks and Bai Xiaosheng also stood up to greet them.

After greeting each other, A Fei and Tie Linglong took the initiative to sit on the two chairs in the corner of the back row.

Just as we sat down here, another Zhike monk shouted from outside: "Master Lu Feng, Master Lu is here to watch the battle!"
