Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 269 Mr. Qin and the sweeping monk

Wang Yuyan shook her head secretly and sighed inwardly.

Among the Jianghu martial arts world, the Murong family can be regarded as a powerful party with some status, but compared with the government and court, they are too weak and vulnerable.

With Mr. Qin's martial arts, virtue, knowledge, and wisdom, no matter whether he goes to the Song Palace, Liao Kingdom or Western Xia, he will be honored as a guest of honor.

The Murong family has no territory, no army, no population, and no huge financial resources.He bears the identity of a descendant of the "Great Yan Kingdom" royal family, and he is also a member of the Xianbei tribe.

Murong Bo wanted Mr. Qin to work for him, to help Murong's family seek to rule the country and conquer the world.

Wang Yuyan felt that Murong Bo's proposal of such a "deal" was no longer stupid, but a joke.

Murong Bo is really old.

When Murong Fu saw that Qin Zhiyong despised the Murong family, he immediately became angry, and said in a cold voice: "Qin Zhiyong, you don't know how to flatter you. The Murong family invited you because they think highly of you. Don't be ashamed."

Qin Zhiyong can ignore Murong Fu's words.Even if Qin Zhiyong ignored Murong Fu, no one present would dare to underestimate "Mr. Qin".

However, Wang Yun, as the elder sister of Huichun Hall, is Qin Zhiyong's direct disciple.She can't tolerate anyone being disrespectful to her husband.

Wang Yun stood up and stared at Murong Fu with a cold look in her eyes: "Murong Fu, give you the face of the Murong family, this girl calls you Mr. Murong. When you don't give you face, what are you? Martial arts, you are not worthy of carrying your husband’s shoes. In terms of virtue, my husband established the Huichuntang Medical Center, which has cured countless diseases and saved lives. It can be said that your merits are immeasurable. Your Murong family has not only failed to save people, but has harmed countless people. In terms of knowledge and wisdom, Murong Fu, you are an idiot in front of Mr.

"I dare say that the children in our Huichun Hall are stronger than you, Murong Fu. For the sake of sister Yuyan, I will let you go. If you dare to disrespect my husband again, even if it is in the Daxiong Palace, I will You also need to splatter five steps with your blood. If you don’t believe me, you can try it.”

Wang Yun usually looks like a quiet little girl, plus she has learned medical skills and is kind-hearted, she doesn't seem to be aggressive.But the aura she erupted at this time shocked everyone.

Xiao Yuanshan secretly thought, not long ago, he had just fought against Wang Yun in Suzhou City, and Wang Yun was only slightly better than him at that time.But now, Wang Yun's skill has increased by at least [-]% compared to then.

Before, Xiao Yuanshan could barely escape from Wang Yun's grasp.

If he fights Wang Yun again now, Xiao Yuanshan might not even have a chance to escape, even though Xiao Yuanshan's martial arts have also strengthened a lot recently.

Murong Fu is known as "Nan Murong" in Jianghu martial arts, not to say he is superior, but he has always been respected.

Wang Yun's words really did not save face for others. In front of the heroes of the world, he belittled Murong Fu and the Murong family to nothing.It's just too deceiving.

Murong Fu was angry, and his mentality suddenly became unbalanced.

Just when Murong Fu wanted to reprimand Wang Yun, Murong Bo said: "Fu'er, calm down. Don't say any more."

The situation is stronger than the people.

If Murong Fu dared to speak rudely again, Wang Yun would really kill him.On this point, Murong Bo has no doubts.

When Xiao Feng arrived at Shaolin Temple, he quickly found Ah Zi who was watching the excitement among the crowd.

Xiao Feng walked into the Great Hall of Great Heroes.

Having been the King of the South Court of Liao Kingdom for a few months, Xiao Feng's aura of calmness and prestige can be said to have been thoroughly cultivated.

His aura alone gives people the illusion of thousands of troops.

As soon as he entered the Daxiong Palace, Xiao Feng suppressed the aura of the heads of the various sects.

Seeing Xiao Feng, Xiao Yuanshan couldn't help shouting: "Feng'er."

Wishing a child to become a dragon is not only the wish of the Han people, but also the wish of the Khitan people.Xiao Feng's martial arts skills are overwhelming, and now he is the king of the South Court of the Liao Kingdom, he can be said to be truly outstanding and a very respectable minister.

Xiao Yuanshan was so powerful back then, but he was only the head coach of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Liao Kingdom.There is a world of difference between teaching hundreds of thousands of troops to fight with guns and sticks, and directly controlling the military and political power of hundreds of thousands of troops.

When Xiao Feng saw Xiao Yuanshan, he was shocked and blurted out: "Father!"

Xiao Feng strode up to Xiao Yuanshan, knelt on the ground on one knee, and said excitedly: "Unfilial son Xiao Feng, I have seen my father."

Xiao Yuanshan helped Xiao Feng up, and said happily: "Feng'er...you are much better than Dad. Okay, okay, okay. Your mother is under the Nine Springs, if she knows your achievements, she will be very pleased. However, Today, father and son, we have one more important matter to do. That is to kill the old man Murong Bo! He is the mastermind behind the destruction of our family."

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Father, don't worry, the boy will definitely avenge his mother today."

Kang Long has regrets.

Xiao Feng directly hit the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, attacking and killing Murong Bo.

A dull dragon chant sounded.

The air within three zhang radius of Xiao Feng became viscous.

"retreat."

"This palm is too strong!"

Those who were closer to Xiao Feng all backed down one after another.

The oppressive force of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms made it difficult for the people around to breathe.

After getting married with Ah Zhu, Xiao Feng really changed a lot.Perhaps it was because he had something to protect, his skill became more profound and his palm power more pure.

If we say that Xiao Feng's skill was still a bit behind those of the older generation such as Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo, but now Xiao Feng's fighting power is on par with them.

Clang!
Murong Fu drew out his long sword.

Jianmang froze, ready to fend off the enemy.

"Fu'er, you are invincible." Murong Bo said with a serious face, "Let's retreat."

Xiao Feng's skill made Murong Bo feel the pressure, even though Murong Fu has become a swordman, but against Xiao Feng, he probably has no chance of winning.

Murong Bo is not reconciled, but he has to admit that the descendants of Xiao Yuanshan are indeed stronger than the descendants of Murong's family.

Murong Bo led Murong Fu, turned into an afterimage and rushed to the outside of the Daxiong Palace.

Xiao Yuanshan sneered and said: "Old Murong, you want to escape now? It's too late. Feng'er, let's chase after him!"

Xiao Feng and Xiao Yuanshan chased them out at an extremely fast speed.

All the heads followed and ran out.

"Go. Go outside."

"It's rare to see four peerless masters fighting together."

"You have to watch the battle."

Everyone left the hall.

Now, there are only four people in the hall, Qin Zhiyong, Wang Yuyan, Wang Yun, and Abbot Xuanci.

Wang Yun said: "Sir, Murong Bo has done a lot of evil. For his own ambition, he has made waves for decades. It has disturbed the peace of the Jianghu martial arts world and killed so many people. Will he escape?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "Xiao Yuanshan and Xiao Feng will not let Murong Bo escape. The masters will not let Murong Bo leave Shaolin either."

Abbot Xuanci clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, it's all wrong."

Qin Zhiyong said: "It's not injustice, it's ambition, it's greed. The Murong family doesn't have any merit, and they don't have the qualifications to be the leader of the martial arts, let alone be the emperor. I don't know if the master thinks that Qin is right?"

Abbot Xuanci was taken aback.

The tone of Qin Zhiyong's last sentence was too polite.With Qin Zhiyong's cultivation and status, there is no need to be so respectful to himself, right?

Just when Abbot Xuanci was puzzled, an old floor-sweeping monk wearing a rough monk robe came out from behind the Buddha statue in the main hall.

Xuanci finally knew that Qin Zhiyong's last words were not addressed to himself.

The old monk's eyebrows are very long and already white.His face is old, but without age spots.

It can be seen that the old monk is at least a hundred years old.

However, the old monk's eyes were clear in black and white, very energetic, without any cloudiness.

The aura on the old monk's body was very peaceful, and his every move seemed to have the effect of calming others' minds.

"Mr. Qin is right. Greed is the root of all demons." The floor-sweeping old monk said with a smile, "Layman Murong has done many wrong things in his life and harmed many people. Mr. Qin lit the The arrogance in my heart and the profoundness of Confucianism are comparable to those of the ancient sages. Congratulations. In fact, with Mr. Qin's cultivation, it is easy to stop Murong Layman from messing around."

Qin Zhiyong stood up, showed respect to the old monk sweeping the floor, and said calmly: "The master is right. With Qin's martial arts, it is easy to punish Murong Bo. But Qin is strange that Murong Bo is hiding in the Shaolin Temple. He has been in the Sutra Pavilion for decades, and has secretly learned many Shaolin martial arts, why didn't the master stop him? The master's martial arts cultivation is not inferior to Qin's."

The old monk sweeping the floor said: "Amitabha. My Buddha is merciful. Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately. If Layman Murong wakes up one day..."

Qin Zhiyong frowned, interrupted the sweeping monk, and said: "The way of heaven is fair, good and evil will be rewarded. Qin does not kill people, because he has been cultivating his own roots of goodness. After all, the goal of practice in the Confucian "Great Learning" is to stop Yu Zhishan."

"However, I'm not convinced by the saying 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately'. The villain holds the butcher's knife, with bloody hands, and walks forward with dead bones and flesh. When one day gets tired, the villain throws away the butcher's knife and becomes a Buddha Buddha? If this is the case, it is too easy to become a Buddha. It will make those who practice Buddhism hard, those who do good deeds and accumulate virtue, feel very unfair. It will even make Qin feel shuddering."

"Although Qin is a disciple of Confucianism, he has also learned about Buddhism. When Buddhism persuades people to be good, they almost always say the phrase 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha'. I have read many Buddhist classics, maybe I read it I was not careful enough, and I just didn’t find out which Buddha or Bodhisattva said this sentence. The master’s Dharma is profound, and he must be proficient in various Buddhist scriptures. Why don’t you tell Qin Mou which Buddha or Bodhisattva said it? .”

Wang Yuyan, Wang Yun, and Xuan Ci were all shocked.

In the past, they all thought that "putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately" was a good saying.Now after Qin Zhiyong said this, I feel that this sentence is really unreasonable.

If Buddhism believes in this sentence, it will conflict with the concept of "goodness is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil".

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "I have always believed that 'putting down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha immediately' is something that can only be said by a big devil. What do you think, Master?"

The sweeping monk clasped his hands together, flashed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin's sharp words made it difficult for the poor monk to resist. Mr. Qin came to Shaolin Temple not to participate in the martial arts conference, but to discuss the Tao with the poor monk." . Is the poor monk right?"

Qin Zhiyong laughed, nodded and said, "That's right. This time Qin went to Shaolin mainly to discuss the Tao with the master. I hope the master will give you some advice."
