Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 973 Lobbyist (2)

After the death of Zen Master Ku, the chief dean of the precepts, Chan Master Dawu, the chief dean of the precepts, became the elder of the dean of the precepts, and the position of the elder of the precepts was replaced by a senior monk who was originally the head of the precepts, which left a Bodhidharma empty. The seat of the head of the academy, and Qingyuan, the eldest disciple who was originally the head of the precepts academy, became the head, and this seat was also vacant.

Finally, after discussion among the monks, Qing Cheng became the head seat of the Prajna Hall, Qing Zhi, the head of the original Bodhi Hall, became the head of the Precepts Hall, Qing Xuan, the head of the original Arhat Hall, became the head of the Dharma Hall, and Qinghe, the head of the original Prajna Hall, became the head of the Bodhi Hall , and Jue Dian will be the first seat of the remaining Arhat Hall.

At that time, Juedian had only been a monk for a year, and he was a monk of the Jue family, so it was not up to him to say anything, but because his martial arts were high enough, and the master often called him to listen to the teachings, so he became the most suitable candidate.Not to mention, after Jue Dian became the head of the Arhat Hall, all his time was spent on practicing kung fu and teaching the disciples of the Jue family in the Arhat Hall.

One year, an eminent monk from Mount Putuo, Master Kongming, a good friend of Tiandu sage Yu Tiandu, came to Shaolin Temple to pay homage. In his spare time, he specified that he wanted to compete with Juedian.There was no winner in this battle, but Juedian's reputation grew louder and louder.Those who have good things, even compared him with Dugu Jiutian, the leader of Zhengtian Sect, and said that the battle they most want to see is when these two people will have a contest.Naturally, this does not rule out the instigation of people with ulterior motives, but the current Juedian has indeed been listed as a top expert.

The mysterious person who came yesterday has not come out since he and Juedian entered the secret room. The three elders were afraid that something might happen, so they came to wait outside the secret room early in the morning.

Seeing that the sun had already set to the west, he suddenly heard a soft knock from the door of the secret room, and soon, the door opened, and two people walked out from it.One of them is Wu Shiming, who is now Master Juedian.The person who walked out with him was no longer wearing a bamboo hat at this time, and he looked 36. In terms of age, he had entered middle age, but he always had a charming smile on his face.

When Fang Jianming saw the man's appearance, he couldn't help saying: "It's you?"

The man smiled and said, "Yes, it's me."

Zen Master Da Neng looked at this man and said angrily, "So it's you. What are you doing in Shaolin Temple? This temple doesn't welcome you."

The man said with a smile: "I come to visit my younger brother, won't the master allow it?"

Chan Master Da Neng was about to say something when Juedian said, "Although you are my elder brother, I have already become a monk and a Buddhist. From now on, we don't want to see each other again." There is such a brother.

Obviously, this person is none other than Sima Chenyu.

Since Fang Jianming recognized him, he naturally guessed about the mysterious man just now, and said: "The big man who came today is your adoptive father?"

Sima Chenyu said: "Yes, brother Fang must have met the old man."

Fang Jianming snorted and said, "Yes, I did, but I didn't see his face. Your adoptive father is very mysterious."

Suddenly He Jue called out: "You... are you Jianming?"

Fang Jianming turned his head to look at Juedian, stepped forward to salute, and said, "Jianming has seen Brother Shiming."

Jue Dian hugged him and laughed out loud, very crazy.As soon as he saw Fang Jianming, he couldn't bear to go insane. The penance of the past few years was in vain.

After a while, he let go of Fang Jianming and said with a smile, "You finally came to see us."

Fang Jianming glanced at Sima Chenyu and said, "He told you?"

Jue Dian nodded.

Sima Chenyu coughed and said: "Brother Fang, can you take a step to speak."

Fang Jianming also wanted to ask him something, so he said to Juedian: "Brother Shiming, I will come as soon as I go." He resigned from his master and three elders, and left with Sima Chenyu.

The two left the Shaolin Temple and walked into a forest. They didn't speak for a long time. In the end, Sima Chenyu was the first to break the silence and said, "Brother Fang, Senior Fu and the others have already looked for you, right?"

Fang Jianming said: "We met last night and had a fight."

Sima Chenyu said: "I knew you would not agree."

Fang Jianming said: "You already knew me very well when we were enemies. It was unnecessary for your adoptive father to send them here."

Sima Chenyu said: "What if I come to be the lobbyist?" When he said that, he put away his smile.

Fang Jianming was startled, and said: "Brother Sima, we are all people who survived a catastrophe, and we should all know the preciousness of life. Can't you persuade your adoptive father?"

Sima Chenyu sighed, and said: "The reason for this cannot be explained clearly in a few words, and I can't help myself."

Fang Jianming said seriously: "Brother Sima, are you really willing to sacrifice your life for your adoptive father?"

Sima Chenyu said: "My life was saved by his old man. He wanted me to die, so I must die too. The so-called one should not be ungrateful, I only realized it after I was reincarnated. Unfortunately, it was too late, my life was over. Not in my hands."

Fang Jianming also knows his difficulties, if he were himself, he probably wouldn't be able to choose, how can you resist a person who saved his life?Yes, you can resist, but you have to be ungrateful.If you are a hero, a villain, or something like that, it doesn't matter what kind of infamy you have.

That's why it's hard to be a hero.Therefore, sometimes, people are most afraid of being a hero because they have too many scruples.All right, if you want to be a hero, that’s fine, charge into battle, you are the first to go; go up the mountain to fight tigers, you go alone; assassinate traitors, you take the lead... Even if you have a hundred or a thousand lives, it’s not enough for you to fight! .

Troubled times produce heroes, bullshit, troubled times produce villains, because all the heroes are dead.

Fang Jianming pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Sima, it's useless for anyone to be a lobbyist. I don't know what kind of character I am? I can say promises, but that's not what I said, and I can't say too much."

Sima Chenyu looked at him, heaved a long sigh, and said: "Up to now, I can only say four words: cherish, be careful." After speaking, he turned around and strode away.

Fang Jianming raised his voice and said: "Brother Sima, please say sixteen words to your adoptive father on behalf of my younger brother: One thought of ignorance is the end of prajna, and one thought of wisdom is the birth of prajna." The voice echoed in the forest, as if it had not dispersed for a long time.
