Chapter 323 The fog of Zhongyue Temple (4)
In the wing room of Chen Shuqing of Shaolin Temple, Su Sanniang gathered Pu Zixuan, Chen Shuqing, Zhu Yuanliang and Yu Xiangdi together to inform everyone of the information she already knew about the Eternal Night Competition and Huo Zhizhang's strange behavior.
Everyone was indeed shocked, and Pu Zixuan asked repeatedly, "Ah? What did you say? There is such a magical thing in the Zhongyue Temple, and now it is about to be given to the Purification Messenger as a prize?"
Seeing Su Sanniang nodding to confirm, Pu Zixuan realized something and sighed: "No wonder, the last time I met Huo Zhichang, Huo Gu said that they had something else to look for in Henan, and Huo Zhichang hurriedly stopped him. I felt that they came here not just to grab Elder Huike's fragment of "Huanyue Jue"! This must be famous!"
Su Sanniang said: "I just don't know if Huo Zhizhang already knows what the holy object is, or is just like us, and I feel curious."
"Haha, no matter whether he knows it or not, we must know it anyway!" After Pu Zixuan said that, he looked at Chen Shuqing with anticipation and asked, "Xiao Jiu, in that era, which purifying messenger was as powerful as my ancestor Pu Songling, and had contact with him? You must know?"
Chen Shuqing thought for a while and said, "At that time, there were several top purifiers, and they all had some relationships with their husbands. After all, heroes cherish heroes. However, Master Li said that the man came from a foreign country, so I guessed that he was almost inseparable. But I don't know much about his abilities. After all, they were all in the wild when they competed with their husbands."
Pu Zixuan's eyes suddenly shone, "That's okay, we just need to know a name first."
Chen Shuqing glanced at Pu Zixuan, then hesitated for a moment and replied: "No, I can't say it."
"Ah? Why?" Pu Zixuan said in confusion.
"The holy objects of Zhongyue Temple have been passed down to this day, and they are no longer holy objects of anyone, but holy objects of the purifying messengers in the world. Since Taoist Master Li Shengqing regards it as the highest secret that determines the fate of mankind, I must respect it."
Pu Zixuan was so angry that he stamped his feet and said, "You, you...who are you from?"
Su Sanniang smiled and said, "It's not a problem, Chen Shuqing's statement makes sense. Since Master Li tried his best to keep the secret, it must be a rule passed down by Zhongyue Temple over the past 100 years. The reason for this rule must be that the purifying messenger explained to the abbot at that time 150 years ago. After all, it's a matter of the whole world. I think we should respect the good intentions of our ancestors."
Yu Xiangdi also said, "I think so too. Moreover, what's the point of knowing the answer in advance? As long as the three of us participate in the competition together, the chances of taking the lead will be very great. At that time, we will listen to Master Li as a winner and give us a sense of accomplishment. Wouldn't we feel more accomplished?"
Zhu Yuanliang also said concisely: "Although I am not qualified to participate in the competition, I also think what they said makes sense."
"Fatty! You...you..." Seeing everyone singing and showing their support, Pu Zixuan felt that his heart was poured through several basins of cold water from head to toe, but now that things have come to this point, being stubborn will only make him more isolated, so his expression changed drastically, "You are saying so well. We must rely on our own strength to win back the holy objects and history! Sanniang, this matter is settled, you can report the name for us!"
Yu Xiangdi said: "We must participate in the competition, but there are still five opponents, especially the Huo Zhizhang you mentioned, who is not very good at. If we want to win the competition, we must improve our strength as soon as possible in the past two months. I will stay in Shaolin Temple to practice, where are you?"
Su Sanniang said: "Huo Zhizhang cannot leave it alone, he must pay attention to his actions at any time. My ability is more suitable for investigation, so it is more appropriate for me to go to Zhongyue Temple."
Pu Zixuan did not make a decision immediately, and after a while, he whispered: "No matter where you practice, how effective can it be in just two months?"
Yu Xiangdi patted Pu Zixuan on the shoulder and smiled proudly, "Don't underestimate our Shaolin Temple. Twenty years, there are twenty years of practice; two years, there are two years of practice; two months, there are two months of practice. Master will arrange the training content for you according to the situation."
Pu Zixuan obviously didn't want to express this, and suggested: "I want to say, why don't we beg Elder Huike to give us his fragment of "Huanyue Jue"? Originally, I wanted to ask him when we left Henan."
Chen Shuqing agreed: "Yes, my piece can also be contributed, so that the three of you happen to be one piece by one. However, the fragment is not in Elder Huike's body, but in Duan Yanxin's body. I have already explored that day."
"Anyway, I'll ask you some more next day." Speaking of this, Pu Zixuan said unconsciously, "Oh, if it's an enemy, just snatch it directly. It's really hard for us to speak for such a good demon king, haha."
As he was speaking, an old man's voice suddenly came from the door: "Amitabha, that means that the donor Pu has a Bodhisattva's heart."
The visitor was Huiyuan, who walked in with Buddhist beads in his hand, "I hope I haven't disturbed you about the matter."
When Yu Xiangdi saw Huiyuan, he immediately became a little restrained, "Ah? Master, you have heard what we said just now?"
Huiyuan was in a good mood, and a joking tone was slightly slight: "Haha, I heard some things like "Zhongyue Temple" and "Eternal Night Competition".
Su Sanniang immediately said with shame: "Sorry, abbot, I didn't inform you first, so I took the initiative to let Yu Xiangdi sign up for the competition."
Huiyuan smiled and said, "To be honest, there is no news about the competition and prizes. Unexpectedly, Master Li even kept his mouth shut, haha. However, in this way, I feel more at ease. Ziyu, since it is a matter of justice, you don't need to report to your teacher, just participate."
"Thank you, Master!" Yu Xiangdi laughed, "Master seems to be in a good mood today. Is there anything good?"
Huiyuan still smiled and said, "Oh? So can I judge my mood by my expression?"
"Isn't that?" Yu Xiangdi said, "Didn't Master say that monks should not eliminate emotions when practicing. It is not difficult to judge when Master is happy or when he is angry."
Huiyuan said happily: "There is a good thing. Xiaoshu's child has been taking medicine for a day and has already awakened. I have made a special trip to inform you to come and take a look."
"That's great!" Everyone looked happy and without saying much, they followed Huiyuan to Sun Xiaoshu's wing room.
In the room, although Sun Xiaoshu was still lying on the bed, he had recovered his consciousness. Seeing many kind faces coming in, he immediately raised his body slightly and said gratefully: "It's all troublesome. Abbot Huiyuan has told me everything. I have had a long dream and finally woke up..."
Huiyuan said: "It seems that the scattered grass is indeed a good medicine to prevent dullness, and it also proves that the little tree has indeed become confused because of the Prajna ability of the drought. To be honest, I was a little worried before. If I make a wrong judgment, it would delay the treatment time. I can't bear this responsibility!"
Pu Zixuan said: "Master Abbot is too worried, there will be no problem. Looking back now, when Qin Yong was exposed by Sister Wei from behind in Liushaping, he became dazed and talked nonsense. It was because of the ability of the drought-bar Prajna. However, Qin Yong was alone and no one could help him. You are different from Xiaoshu. With us here, you will definitely not be in danger!"
Sun Xiaoshu said with relief: "Thank you, when I get completely done, I will be your strong backing."
"Haha, don't be anxious. You will need at least one month to fully recover. As for us, we have a new task and will participate in a competition in Dengfeng. I'm planning to start practicing today."
"The competition? It seems that a lot of things have happened again during this period?" Sun Xiaoshu looked curious.
So, Pu Zixuan told Sun Xiaoshu about the information about the Eternal Night Competition, and then told Sun Xiaoshu and Su Sanniang about the talks with Xiqu.
"This is the situation, so even Master Li didn't know that Ge Duo was actually dead. However, since they had already scheduled to hold the eternal night competition on the first day of the first lunar month next year, we will accompany you as scheduled."
