Chapter 111: Great Vajra Temple

"Lord Tianyang is very strong. We are brothers. Please move around more often in the future." At the door of the curtain, Pan Man smeared ointment on his hands, wrapped them with gauze, and pretended to be like those scholars, and saluted to Lu Yi with his hands crossed.

He winked at Lu Yi and said, "Later, as your brother, I will give you a present. The South is desolate and there are not many good things. Lord Tianyang, please don't despise it."

Lu Yi smiled without saying anything and bowed to Pan Man.

There are still good things in Nanmanzhou.

Apart from other things, there are at least one hundred rivers in Nanmanzhou named "Jinsha", which shows the specialty of that place.

desolate?

How could Nanmanzhou be a remote place?

Apart from the fact that the people are a little more barbaric, tough, cruel and brutal, the Southern Barbarian State can be described as vast, densely populated, abundant in products and extremely rich.

Lu Yi would definitely not despise such a thoughtful gesture.

The brocade curtains enclosed an area of ​​about an acre in size. Inside the curtains, large braziers were set up in the four corners. The heat was rising and there was no chill at all.

In the middle of the curtain, a large piece of oilcloth was spread on the ground, on which was placed the feng shui map of Baimafang.

The map was drawn in great detail, especially the small hill to the south of the curtain. It clearly marked which hilltops had several forest gardens, which family each forest garden belonged to, and which family had the backing of other families.

Next to the feng shui map, there are seven or eight cushions.

As soon as Lu Yi walked into the curtain, he saw a bald man sitting cross-legged on the cushion in the middle. He was nearly six feet tall. Once he stood up, he was definitely over ten feet tall. He had a very large frame but was extremely thin.

The bald man's scalp was shaved so shiny that it could almost serve as a mirror reflecting his image.

He sat cross-legged on a cushion, his aura hidden but giving Lu Yi an inexplicable sense of danger, even greater than the sense of danger he had felt last month in the Bai family's backyard when he had to deal with three sneaky people at the same time.

The bald man was extremely thin, with an ordinary-looking face, except for a pair of extremely bright eyes - his eyeballs had a faint beeswax color, which made a deep impression on people at first sight.

"This is Senior Brother Shi'e." Lu Yu pointed at the bald man casually and said, "I joined the sect. Senior Brother Shi'e and I are brothers with the same master. Most of my Kung Fu skills were taught by Senior Brother Shi'e on behalf of the master. You can call him Uncle Master, too."

Lu Yu glanced at Lu Yi.

Lu Yi took two steps forward, followed suit, and bowed to Shi E: "I am Lu Yi, meeting Uncle Shi E."

Shi E, who was staring at the feng shui map, raised his head, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his thin face: "Tianyang Lord Lu Yi, good, good, good... What a pity, from the noise you made when you fought with Pan Man just now, it seems that you have mastered the Lu family's Jieshi Kung Fu?"

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes.

The Infinite Return to the Abyss Body can be said to be an advanced version of the fusion of the three skills of Canghai Jin, Jingtao Shou, and Jieshi Gong. Of course, the level of the Infinite Return to the Abyss Body is far beyond the comparison of these three skills.

However, when he activated the Wuliang Guixu body to fight against others, the outward characteristics were indeed a bit like the combination of those three techniques.

"Yes, I got the inheritance stone tablet of Jingyang Lu family in the Secret History Bureau." Lu Yi smiled and said, "Even the Jingyang Lu family has not been able to practice Jieshi Kungfu successfully for many years. I was lucky enough to get started."

Shi E glanced at Lu Yu and shook his head: "It's too late. The Jieshi Kung Fu is extremely overbearing. Once you get it, you can't change the technique unless you practice it to perfection."

Sighing, Shi E said calmly: "For the time being, I will let Lord Tian Yang be our outer disciple. When he has mastered the Jieshi Gong and modified the subsequent advanced techniques, it will not be too late to accept him into the inner sect."

Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat.

What Shi'e and Lu Yu said is quite interesting.

He looked at Shi'e and said with a smile, "Uncle Shi'e, what is this sect you are talking about?"

Monk Shi E smiled without saying anything, lowered his head, and continued to stare at the feng shui map in a daze.

Lu Yu laughed, stroked his long beard, and said leisurely: "Do you remember what I told you last month at the South Gate of the Imperial City?"

'Eternal life'? This thought crossed Lu Yi's mind.

Pan Man stood beside Lu Yi and nudged Lu Yi's arm with his shoulder: "Lord Tianyang, Master and Uncle Master, that is, Lord Tianen, are all true disciples of the inner sect of the Great Vajra Temple."

"The Great Vajra Temple is one of the three sects, three temples and three Zen forests of the Dayin Buddhist sect. It is known as the best in fighting and is the guardian sect of the Dayin Buddhist sect."

Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, and countless thoughts were running through his mind, but he said with a smile: "Three sects, three temples, and three Zen temples? My Great Yin owns the land of Kyushu. Not to mention other things, there are at least thousands of temples in the city of Gaojing."

Shi E raised his head and said calmly, "They are all wild fox Zen that has not obtained the true Dharma, unorthodox ways, not worth mentioning. When the true teachings of our Buddhist sect are revealed, the people who belong to these temples should either sincerely submit to us and serve us, or just let them die."

"Our Great Vajra Temple is the guardian of Buddhism. We not only defend against evil spirits from outside, but also eliminate heresy from within."

His eyes slowly turned into amber-like pale gold, and Shi E released a suffocating aura of terror from his body: "The thousands of temples in Gaojing City that you mentioned are just like the hundreds of thousands of temples in Zuzhou and other states. They are all heretical in my Buddhist sect."

Lu Yi stared at Shi E in a daze.
These words were extremely overbearing. Lu Yi didn't know about other places, but in Anlefang, there was a Qingliangyuan. This was a temple that existed when Dayin was founded. It was an ancient temple that had been passed down for nearly two thousand years.

According to Shi E, Qingliangyuan is also a heresy in Buddhism. It is an existence where one either submits or perishes.

Lu Yu patted Lu Yi's shoulder and said calmly: "You will understand the obstacles in the future. The great changes in the world are just around the corner. You should first enter the outer gate of my Great Vajra Temple. This is the foundation for your future survival."

"I asked you to come here today because I have something serious to tell you."

Lu Yu nodded to Lu Yu: "Uncle, just say it. Join the outer sect of the Great Vajra Temple? Since uncle is a disciple of the Great Vajra Temple, it will not be a big problem for me to join."

First the sneak appeared, then the Daikonji came into being.

Lu Yu vaguely felt that the so-called great changes in heaven and earth might involve deeper secrets of this world.

It is certainly good to keep oneself to oneself.

But wouldn’t it be great if you could join a big force and let it provide you with shelter?

Lu Yi looked at Pan Man standing next to him. This guy was actually a disciple of the Great Vajra Temple? Haha, next time if Bai Lu came to kill the worry, it would be interesting to let Pan Man lead people to fight the ghosts, right?

"Thirty thousand years ago, this forest was the location of the outer courtyard of our Great Vajra Temple in Gaojing." Lu Yu squatted beside the geomancy map and traced his finger over a small hill. "After the Great Vajra Temple was established, the abbot and several elders wanted to rebuild the outer courtyard of Gaojing. The location must naturally be on the original site."

Lu Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced over. This stretch of green peaks was about seventy to eighty miles long and more than ten miles wide. There were hundreds of forest gardens in the mountains and forests, all owned by the wealthy merchants of Baimafang.

Looking at the information marked next to the forest gardens, many of these wealthy merchants are involved with officials from the six ministries under the Prime Minister's Office.

In fact, many wealthy merchants' families had children who were students of the Imperial Academy, or even officials of high positions.

"What if we buy these forest gardens?" Lu Yi put forward his suggestion.

"These families are not short of money." Lu Yu frowned and said, "Many of the forest gardens are their ancestral properties. They are wealthy and have a sense of dignity. They would never sell their ancestral property."

"This, the title deed?" Lu Yi thought of an extremely reliable method: "Since this was the outer courtyard of the Great Vajra Temple 30,000 years ago, then..."

"There is a deed, it is in the main hall of the Great Vajra Temple, and it is well preserved." Shi E looked at Lu Yi with a twitching face, "But 30,000 years ago, when David Dynasty still unified the world, if you bring the deed issued by David Dynasty to Dayin Wu Dynasty to claim the mountains and forests, I'm afraid no one will recognize it."

Lu Yi pursed his lips.

That's the truth. If you take the land deed issued by the government of the previous dynasty 30,000 years ago to the government of Dayin to sue and want to get back this piece of forest, you might be charged with being a remnant of the previous dynasty and plotting rebellion.

"We can't force them to relocate to our land. If we provoke one of these cultural and educational officials, we will provoke a whole group of them. In this matter, fundamentally, we are right, but if we make a fuss, no one in the world will think we are right."

Lu Yi stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the feng shui map and sighed.

Shi E also kept shaking his head: "If it was during the heyday of our sect, we could have taken it by force. We could have easily destroyed a few ants. But now, our sect is at its lowest point, and we are powerless to use such drastic measures!"

Lu Fu looked at Shi E.

Just by listening to what they said, you can tell that this Great Vajra Temple is not a serious and kind sect.

"So, it's time for me, your brother, to come in handy." Pan Man patted Lu Yi's shoulder and said, "I will pick fights with the children of these wealthy families. I will take advantage of their various gatherings to cause disputes with them, and then I will be severely beaten."

"I was beaten, so I'll have to trouble Lord Tianyang to come forward and settle the score with their parents."

"Everyone in the capital of Gao knows that we, the hostages of the princes, cannot be provoked... I can make my injuries more serious and force them to hand over these forests to us."

"These guys like to form gangs and hold various gatherings on weekdays. I ran over to fight with them and got beaten up 30 to 50 times, and that was about it."

Lu Yi looked at Pan Man in astonishment.

This is a great idea!

Although it is a bit unscrupulous, it is indeed a good idea and very practical.

"Well, actually, Your Highness, you alone are capable of accomplishing this task, why do you need me to step in?" Lu Yi looked at Shi E and Lu Yu in confusion.

"I'll give you a chance to make contributions to the sect." Lu Yu glared at Lu Yu and said, "Otherwise, my Great Vajra Temple is so noble in Buddhism that the true Dharma is never passed on lightly, not to mention that I will not be able to get you a share of the benefits in the great changes in the future!"

Lu Yu looked at Lu Yu, pondered for a while, and nodded with a smile: "That's right, if I have no merit, why would the sect give me benefits? Well, in this matter, as long as the prince plays a decent role, I will ask for the emperor's decree, and I will come forward in the name of protecting the princes' hostages, and guarantee that this piece of forest will fall into our hands in the end."

Shi E smiled and nodded: "That's good!"

Shi E flipped his right hand, and a light golden palm-sized token flew towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi took the token and took a look. On the token with lotus patterns, there was already engraved the words 'Lu Yi, outer disciple of the Great Vajra Temple'. Obviously, Shi E and Lu Yi had already planned to ask Lu Yi to come here.

Lu Yi nodded and said in a deep voice: "In that case, let me think of a way to solve this matter all at once. Don't drag it out piecemeal, which will only lead to mistakes."
