Li Chongjiu lives in a dilapidated temple outside the vegetable field, which was built when Shaolin Temple was first renovated.
This is because the monks in Shaolin Temple believed in Hinayana Buddhism when Dharma was not in harmony with Dharma, so Dharma moved to the cave of Wufufeng to practice. This practice is nine years, that is, nine years of reflection into the stone.
After that, the monks of Shaolin Temple gradually believed in Dharma and changed to Mahayana Buddhism, which led to the prevalence of Shaolin Temple and eventually became the ancestral family of Zen Buddhism.
After Zhou Wuzong destroyed Buddhism in Shaolin Temple, many temples in the mountain were destroyed. When Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty worshiped Buddhism, this mountain was rebuilt and only half of the temples were built.
Li Chongjiu can live anywhere. He doesn’t mind living in a humble place. After cleaning up briefly, he sweeps away the dust cobweb and then goes to the farmer’s house to get a few bundles of dried straw, which is his temporary residence.
After settling down, Li Chongjiu bought a fat chicken, half a bucket of rice, a bunch of bacon and a pot of fermented wine in the village, and went back to his residence to buy Li Chongjiu to kill chicken, cut meat and simmer the fermented wine. The temple gave off a burst of fragrance, which immediately attracted several people in the village. Li Chongjiu was also generous, so he was invited to have wine with him.
The mountains, the sun, the moon, and the sun are listening. The hills are carefree and the bells are ringing. Outside the eaves, there is heavy snow.
The house is fragrant with wine, meat, transpiration, chicken, yellow rice and stew, which is also fragrant and full of preparing me chicken and rice, old friend’s fun.
In front of the bonfire, Li Chongjiu was wrapped in leather clothes, and this snow scene was ruined and chatted about interesting things.
So for several days in a row, Li Chongjiu lived in a ruined temple, waiting for the news of Jue Yuan’s Buddhist monk in the mountains, and chatting with several poor people himself. Being pulled by these poor people, he gradually became familiar with others in the village.
The farmers here are simple and hospitable, and Li Chongjiu is good at receiving people and treating things generously. He immediately met many villagers and even went to the village head’s house for a meal.
Although it is not a friendship, it is also a familiar face.
Li Chongjiu was resting in the ruined temple that night when he suddenly heard that there were wheels coming from outside the ruined temple.
Li Chongjiu suddenly sat up at this sound and secretly wondered who was driving in the middle of the night. Isn’t it too dangerous?
The ruined temple is half a mile away from the vegetable field and village, but it happened that the carriage must have come for itself.
Lee Chong-jiu suddenly turned over in his heart, copied the pillow knife and waist, and grabbed the back of his hand and half a pot of arrows from the handy place and went to the temple window to observe warily.
In the dark, I saw a carriage jolting along the mountain road with seven twists and turns, and the carriage lit two angry lanterns.
A coachman is struggling to whip the horse and rush the carriage mountain. Not far from this carriage, there are four or five clusters of torches. Judging from the speed of the torches, the horseshoes should be chasing cavalry.
When Li Chongjiu saw that the goal was not himself, he felt that it was important for him to be careful to hide his tracks. It was the most important thing to see injustice on this road, and he couldn’t help it. When Li Chongjiu made up his mind and stood by silently, he suddenly changed and the carriage was driving in the mountain road. Suddenly, the wheels hit the rocks and the whole carriage fell to the ground and dragged.
Li Chongjiu andao, these people are lucky. If the carriage tilts carelessly, they will fall into the mountain stream.
But at this moment, Lee Chong-jiu had a bad back channel, and three people suddenly came out of the carriage.
One of the three people is a woman, the other two are maids, and the other one is a man with a knife. Together with the driver, the three of them ran to their temple to retreat.
Li Chongjiu dark scold a but behind that a few riders see this is more happy to hear a man shouted a run away suddenly hoof more urgent.
These people are all face upheaval, and the central woman seems to be weak and can’t walk fast, so she needs help from others.
The servant girl, a man with a knife, helped him while the driver ignored the sight of the pursuer and threw them away and ran to the field.
At this time, I heard a bang, and the driver screamed. An arrow feather was nailed to the back and rolled directly to the ground.
Seeing this, the knife-wielding man was indignant and shouted, "The rogue is coming! The rogue is coming! Help everyone!"
Rogue!
Li Chongjiu’s eyebrows are wrinkly. In the past few days, he also found some news in his village that the mountain is not peaceful. There seems to be a group of thousands of people thieves from Henan near Chongyang County.
It is said that these rogue thieves are all from the Yellow River, but they can be returned to their own people. They gather together to cross the border and eat, and many people get bloody in their hands, and then the mob rogue thieves dare to attack the official county to grab food.
Now these rogues cross the border like locusts. Are they aiming at Shaolin Temple this time?
When I thought of this, the thieves on horseback were already slashing at the running woman with their swords.
Chapter 36 Snake and Scorpio Woman
In the soft snow at night
The servant girl’s face was extremely frightened, and her hair fell into the snow, and the torch set off her face was full of panic.
Li Chongjiu saw that the woman had a skirt knife at the bottom of her wrist.
The thieves are dancing and whining in the blade, full of yin and warmth, holding torches in their hands, and their eyes are new as if they were hungry wolves
Just when the rogue was about to chase, the woman suddenly shouted to the man beside her, "Leave me alone when the thief is killed."
The escort woman and man turned red, but pushed the woman hard and shouted, "Ernian, run to the temple to escape."
Say this big fellow turned his back and his feet will definitely fight to the death.
However, Li Chongjiu saw that the big fellow was shaking. Don’t say that he had met the enemy. He couldn’t even hold the knife steadily and heard a bang.
The fast horse flew into the man and the other person flew out like a sandbag.
Bang! A hole was smashed out of the snow mud, and the man cried and didn’t know whether to live or die.
Seeing the removal of the last layer of obstacles, the thieves sent out Owlman’s ferocious smile and drove the horse to the master and servant.
At this time, the skirt knife in the woman’s hand was about to swing a knife.
At this moment, there was a buzzing noise. Ma Si suddenly sounded a healthy horse and suddenly went belly-up.
The thieves still couldn’t see what had happened. At this time, there was another boom. Everyone saw a shadow flying out of the temple. A celebrity thief had a long arrow in his throat and sprayed blood!
The rogue turned over and fell off his horse, and the horse neighed and immediately dragged the rogue around.
Take a breath. Four horse thieves have killed two people.
Two horse thieves were suddenly frightened when the torches at the head of the village shouted, apparently the villagers found something moving here.
Two horse thieves don’t know how many people in the temple immediately crouched down and pulled out their horses on horseback and left.
Listen to another bow and the third arrow brush past the horse. The two horse thieves fled faster.
Li Chongjiu breathed a sigh of relief and took the bow back from the window. This 20-step distance is difficult for him to miss his archery. Otherwise, he will rescue the two men in front of four guarded thieves.
When Li Chongjiu bowed out and ran into the snow, he ran to the big fellow first.
Listen to the big fellow’s bulging eyes, but his throat is giggling. There is air intake but no venting. Li Chongjiu knows that the other party is injured and can’t do heavy work. He shook his head.
Then Li Chongjiu went to the woman and the servant girl.
At the moment, the falling torch plopped and rang, which made the woman’s face suddenly dark. Li Chongjiu saw that this woman was pale, but it was difficult to hide that bright color.
Although there is no national color like Li Zhiwan, it also adds a little delicate and touching, which makes people feel particularly pity.
However, Li Chongjiu secretly sneered at him in the temple just now, but he could see clearly that the skirt knife in the woman’s hand was not going to stab herself to commit suicide, but was going to stab her servant girl.
If you don’t say anything, you can guess whether he wants to save, but he can’t bear to let the girl die and put an arrow.
