Chapter 726: Shaolin Temple 8 - Arhat Array (3000 words please subscribe)

Xiang Wentian's face darkened as thousands of people below, dressed in plain white robes, holding up spiritual banners, walked towards the mountain sobbing and wailing.
On both sides, there are countless descendants of the Xie family supporting each other, and the whole Shaoshi Mountain is filled with endless desolation.
A thought arose in my heart, it turns out that this person is the one competing for business with me today. At this moment, I remained silent and directly looked down below.
Liu Yu looked at these civilians slowly approaching, unable to help but angrily say, "Are these people the ones who were killed after going crazy?"
"Mr. Liu's eyes are sharp." Xie Yanke bowed, feeling pleased. He didn't expect that these people would be unaware of their secret, and he could use them for help.
He pointed randomly below and said, "These are just a drop in the ocean, brief in time. It took me only three days to find this little bit."
Liu Yu's spine felt a little chilly. The Xie family doesn't have much influence in Dengfeng. In three days, they definitely couldn't have expanded the search area much. It's unthinkable that they actually found this much. The things they didn't find must be even more numerous, it's simply insane.
This is a commoner. Such an action will surely provoke a great war in the court and the martial world," I hurriedly asked, "Is what you said true?"
"It concerns the death of Clan Uncle. I dare not jest," Xie Yankè bowed respectfully and earnestly said.
There is also some luck in my heart. I have been secretly monitoring every move of Shaolin. Unexpectedly, after neglecting for a day, news came out that a team of highly skilled monks left Shaolin and disappeared.
Following some clues according to some traces, but lost the traces, unexpectedly found many victims like our family uncle, and then sorted out the whole story.
"What a magnificent Shaolin Temple, truly virtuous in appearance." Xiang Wentian spoke slowly, scrutinizing the direction.
"Martial artists must not harm ordinary people, this is an iron rule and also the boundary between the martial world and the court. As the head of the righteous path, Shaolin has committed such an evil act. I'm afraid we won't be able to leave today."
"Amitabha Buddha, the Kasyapa Buddha verse: all sentient beings are inherently pure, originally unborn and indestructible. This body and mind are illusionary and within the illusion, there is no sin or virtue." Fang spoke with a compassionate expression.
This matter, though it can be explained, is not appropriate to explain in this situation. Otherwise, not only the entire Shaolin, even the entire Zen Buddhism would be in great trouble. We can only tough it out.
Lou Yumin was taken aback, recalling what Ren Woxing had said to her about there being problems with Shaolin Temple's martial arts or Zen Buddhism.
This resulted in significant issues with the entire Zen Buddhist martial arts; could it be that Shaolin Temple is constantly modifying their own techniques and conducting experiments?
The Miao Dian, however, was still upright and resolute, taking a step forward and saying, "All sins and faults belong to me, and all appearances are false. If you see that appearances are not appearances, then you will see the Buddha."
"What a load of self-righteousness. Today, I finally get to see your true colors," Xiang Wentian disdainfully looked at the people in front of him.
When he really doesn't understand, he can say whatever he wants as a sin. What you see is fake. There are other reasons behind it, but I won't explain.
However, the direction is still firm, with even more compassion on his face, and he directly says, "Amitabha Buddha, if you want to know the cause of past lives, look at the one who is suffering in this life; if you want to know the future fruit, look at the one who is creating in this life."
"Don't play dumb with me. Shaolin today is so rebellious, the killer must be handed over," Xiang Wentian said impatiently.
But deep down, he was somewhat uneasy. These two men were playing dumb, but the monks were secretly divided into two factions.
A group of people exuded a calm energy, but their numbers were not large. Another group, however, consisted of individuals filled with murderous intent. These individuals had an overwhelming desire to kill, and it was apparent that they intended to take immediate action.
Xie Yanke directly said, "The Buddhist teachings of Shaolin are profound, and I am deeply grateful for them, but the disciples who have done evil in Shaolin must be handed over and compensate the families of the victims."
Xiang Wentian couldn't help but look at Xie Yanke with some surprise. He was impulsive and almost missed a big event. But this guy said what I wanted to say.
However, this is somewhat different from what I originally designed. The proposed time is too early, and I'm afraid there will be problems with the integration at that time.
But now the arrow is on the string, and I must shoot, otherwise this guy will take action, and if I remain indifferent, I am afraid I won't be able to face Miss Lou and it would also be a violation of the martial arts principles.
He muttered, "Yes, we martial artists do not wish to take sides, but we cannot stand by while evil runs rampant. Shaolin's actions are too despicable, the culprit must be handed over to compensate the wounded hearts of the victims."
Xie Yanke looked at the other person with astonishment. Could this guy be a tapeworm in his own stomach? How does he know what I want to say?
He also directly said, "As the leader of the righteous path, Shaolin must lead by example, otherwise how can it command the respect of fellow martial artists in the martial world?"
Lou Yumin's expression stabilized, she was familiar with the words of these two people, they were taught to her by Ren Woxing, they were some typical keyboard warrior words, it seems that the encounter of these two people here is not a coincidence.
Glancing around in a hurry, I tried to find any trace of the other person, but a tinge of disappointment crossed my face as there was no response to the perfect atmosphere.
……
Looking at the two of them singing and toasting, there was a hint of bitterness on my face. I didn't expect this matter to explode, and the other side actually found so many victims. It seems that Shaolin Temple will close again.
At that moment, I couldn't help but feel a bit startled. I saw a flash of murderous intent in the face of my disciple, which quickly disappeared. I sighed inwardly. Although this disciple woke up from the depths of hell, his inclination towards violence is still too strong.
Miaodian looked at her master ignoring her and quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Master, for the thousand-year reputation of Shaolin, these people cannot be left."
Although she sighed inwardly, with the abbot not present and the intelligence unclear, it was better to take decisive action and show off their might.
Show them ruthlessly, and some followers will naturally be afraid of retaliating afterwards and back down, so the person in charge cannot form an overwhelming momentum. Everything will be much simpler at that time.
"Amitabha Buddha, we have already made great mistakes in our actions. If we wield our swords again, we are likely to make the same mistakes." However, the direction shook his head.
At present, the situation seems unfavorable, but it is obvious that the people from these two families have not arranged it in advance. There must be a hidden move that has not appeared yet. If we recklessly act, we are likely to fall into the enemy's trap.
Miào dì liǎnsè yī biàn, bù chéngxiǎng zì jiā shīfù nèixīn jìngrán rúcǐ yūfǔ, sìxià kànle kàn, quèjiàn hái yǒu jǐ gè miàn lù bùrěn zhīsè, qítā de què shì yǒuxiē shàyì. The expression on Miaodian's face changed, unexpectedly, their own master's heart was so conservative. Looking around, they saw a few expressions of reluctance, but others were rather sinister.
At this moment, with just a meaningful glance and a pointed finger, the bodies of those few people froze, and then they directly said, "Please have Senior Fangyuan take them away."
Direction didn't expect the situation to turn out like this, and immediately became anxious, but their acupoints were restricted, and they couldn't move at all.
Can only be swept with the corner of my eye, couldn't help but feel a little chilling, several monks who were familiar with me in usual days were all restrained.
My heart couldn't help but sigh, I didn't expect my disciples to be infiltrated so deeply by that evil spirit, never discussing matters with the Buddhist teachings, and directly resorting to violence against me. It is really against the teachings of the Buddha.
"Or should we wait-" Fangyuan paused, only getting halfway through his sentence.
Miaodi's expression turned cold as she stared at him, not saying a word.
Fangyuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, feeling completely defeated by her gaze, and said directly, "Yes."
随即便默运玄功，带几名中立的弟子搀扶着其他几名被点住之人朝着外界走去。
妙谛松了一口气，眼下少林大难将临，他们这些人意见却不统一，还分成三波，实在是有些不知所谓。
Why not try using the thunderous power to directly unify the opinions within the temple, so that everyone can work together to overcome any obstacles.
Upon looking around, I noticed that there were many confused expressions among the martial monks behind me. I quickly stepped forward and angrily shouted, "You find some ignorant villagers to recklessly tarnish the thousand-year reputation of Shaolin Temple. What are your intentions?"
Upon seeing this, Liu Yu felt puzzled again. Could it be that the Xie family had wrongly accused them? It is not impossible.
After all, Shaolin Temple is the ancestral temple of Zen Buddhism. Its thousand-year reputation cannot be false. And if they are not righteous themselves, how could they lead the martial arts world for hundreds of years?
Quickly said, "If all these people are from the nearby area of Dengfeng and have such great pain, there must be a great conspiracy hidden within. I hope the Zen master can investigate thoroughly and clear Shaolin of any wrongdoing."
"With both human and physical evidence present, I never expected Master Miaodi to actually dare to deny it. Truly shameless," Xiang Wentian said, looking amusingly at the scene in front of him. He never imagined that his position would be usurped by his disciple.
I do have some concerns in my heart. This guy acts so impulsively, and now the situation has suddenly become serious. I'm afraid we can't delay for much longer.
"Hahaha, Liu Xiaoxia really thinks that under the Buddhist teachings, everyone is a good person..." Xie Yanke said directly.
He has a deep connection with Shaolin and is very knowledgeable about the dark side of the Buddhist tradition, readily able to recall various allusions and concealed information.
"Amitabha Buddha, heretical ways, how dare you defile the righteous court of my Zen sect," Miàodì's expression changed, directly rebuking.
Seeing this, Xiang Wentian chuckled and said, "I just came from the Qingyu Temple a few days ago. The Buddhism practiced there is profound, and it is known for producing corporeal bodies of Buddha."
Although the crowd was not well-versed in Buddhist scriptures, they had some understanding of such things. Upon hearing this, they became very curious, and many eyes continued to fixate on him.
"Master Zhang Jun passed by this place and discovered the dirty tricks inside." Xiang Wentian felt the gaze of these people.
