Yang Jiarui: "Ouyang Feng is timid in front of us, but when he comes out to deal with others, he is very violent!"
Yu Qian'an: "Guess why he is called the Western Poison Ouyang Feng!"
Yang Jiarui: "But it's not good for you to arrange everything like this!"
Yu Qian'an was puzzled: "Why is it not okay?"
Yang Jiarui: "It's not fun. If there are no contradictions or conflicts along the way, and everything is calm, then your life will be smooth sailing from beginning to end. What excitement and fun will there be?"
Yu Qian'an was speechless. "It's not good enough if everything goes smoothly. Why does it have to be full of ups and downs, full of dangers, life and death, and endless troubles?"
Yang Jiarui: "It's not better, but it's more interesting that way."
Yu Qian'an: "Then when we get to Shaolin, I'll let you do whatever you want. I won't stop you. Is that okay?"
Yang Jiarui looked at Yu Qian'an in surprise: "Why are you so easy to talk to? Do you have a grudge against Shaolin Temple?"
Yu Qian'an: "It's not that we have any grudges. Throughout the entire storyline of The Return of the Condor Heroes, Shaolin Temple rarely appears. I suddenly remembered a saying from my past life: Buddhism opens its doors to welcome pilgrims in prosperous times, but closes its doors to cultivate Buddhism in troubled times. Taoism returns to the mountains to cultivate Buddhism in prosperous times, but enters the world to help others in troubled times. I just want to see if Buddhism is really as bad as everyone says."
Yang Jiarui: "That's not true. In fact, there are many compassionate monks in troubled times. And Shaolin closing its doors and ignoring worldly affairs is better than him swearing allegiance to the Yuan Dynasty and dealing with his fellow martial artists, right? After all, behind enemy lines, some things are unavoidable. Just like Qiu Chuji's advice on health preservation to Temujin, right?"
Yu Qian'an: "So I didn't define them. Think about the scene in The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, where Shaolin and the other five sects besieged Guangmingding. The Mingjiao was an anti-Yuan sect, right? These monks don't care about anything... We have to see what's right and wrong, and the outcome will come."
After leaving Jiaxing, the two of them spent another seven days in Suzhou, boating on Taihu Lake. After they had enough fun, they changed boats from Suzhou to Yangzhou. Then Ouyang Feng arranged supervisory identities for the two of them. The two of them visited the gardens in Yangzhou and had some delicious food.
They had already arrived in Yangzhou and crossed the Yangtze River, so there was no need to change boats in Jiankang. However, Yang Jiarui insisted on going to Jiankang for another trip, so the three of them went to Jiankang again and then headed north through Pukou.
Fortunately, this place is far from Huangshan, otherwise she would have to go to Huangshan for another trip.
It took more than a month to reach Shaolin Temple, and Yu Qian'an was very helpless.
When they arrived at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain that day, Yang Jiarui saw the huge Shaolin Mountain Closure Stone Stele. He took out his flying sword and with a few swipes, he added the word "not" above the two words "mountain closed", making the stone stele read "mountain not closed".
Yang Jiarui clapped his hands: "Okay, you can go in now, let's go!"
Two monks holding sticks ran over from a distance: "Stop! Who are you? Why are you tampering with the Shaolin Mountain Sealing Stone?"
Yang Jiarui: "I'll change it, what do you want?"
Monk: "You daring witch! You have committed a crime and refuse to repent. I will capture you and hand you over to the abbot for punishment!"
Yang Jiarui: "Oh! Help! I'm so scared! Monks are bullying weak women!"
The two monks originally wanted to catch him with their hands, but after Yang Jiarui's shouting, they found it difficult to do so. So they used sticks to clamp Yang Jiarui first.
Ouyang Feng dodged and blocked in front of Yang Jiarui, knocking the two monks away with two palms: "Shaolin Temple is nothing but this. They can't beat the Mongols, so they only bully weak women!"
After being slapped away, the two monks were humiliated by Ouyang Feng. They immediately ran over and rang the bell: "If you have the guts, don't leave!"
Of course Yu Qian'an and Yang Jiarui would not leave. The three of them climbed the mountain accompanied by the sound of bells. When they reached halfway up the mountain, the monks on the mountain rushed down. Ouyang Feng did not hesitate to lead the way in front and beat anyone he saw. Soon Yu Qian'an arrived at the gate of Shaolin Temple. All the monks in the temple came out, and several monks in robes were standing at the door.
Seeing Yu Qian'an and the other two, the old monk stepped forward and said, "Amitabha, why did you come to the mountain gate to disturb my Shaolin retreat?"
Yang Jiarui: "What do you mean by celibate cultivation? I think it's just cowardice. I just want to ask on behalf of the people of the world: they donated money during the prosperous times, but now we are in trouble. Are you paying them back or blessing them with peace?"
The old monk was stunned by this question. He only talked about the affairs of the martial arts world and the burning of incense. This was the first time he had seen someone from the martial arts world come to his mountain gate and ask him why he didn't protect the people.
After organizing his thoughts, he said, "Amitabha, everything is predetermined. Although the Buddha is compassionate, he will not save those who do not believe. As long as the believers are sincere, they will surely be saved."
This is a very shameless statement. The monk said that if you don’t believe, he won’t save you. If you believe, he can save you, but if you are not saved, it proves that you are not pious enough.
Yang Jiarui looked at Yu Qian'an and said, "If you argue with him, you'll kill him!"
Yu Qian'an rolled his eyes helplessly: "After all, they are one of the three major religions. If they can't even maintain logical consistency, what's the point of being in this world? If anyone can refute it, then Shaolin would have closed down long ago."
Yang Jiarui: "Then what should we do? If we don't have a reason, won't we just be making trouble?"
Yu Qian'an: "We are here to make trouble for no reason, so go ahead and make trouble. I will cover for you."
Yang Jiarui: "No, that won't work. I'll be crazy. We have to find a reason!
Hey, got it!
"Well, monk, you said you were practicing in seclusion on the mountain, but I don't believe you. Today you must open the gates and let us in to inspect and supervise you. We'll see whether you are practicing in seclusion or enjoying yourself!"
The monks looked at each other in bewilderment. What on earth is this? Why are you supervising us? If anyone comes to supervise us, how can we still live?
The monk said, "Donor, you are joking. My Shaolin Temple relies on the self-reliance of the monks. The temple has its own precepts. Besides, you are a woman. My Shaolin Temple never accepts female guests!"
Yang Jiarui: "Why, you look down on women? You're being sexist! I'm going to take care of this..."
Looking at Yang Jiarui blabbering away, Yu Qian'an felt a little helpless. "You're not a shrew, what nonsense are you talking about? You're talking about sexism with a monk?"
Perhaps the group of monks were also helpless. Seeing them staring blankly at Yang Jiarui talking, one of them finally couldn't help but say, "I think you guys are here to cause trouble. Come on, form the Arhat formation and drive them down the mountain!"
Yang Jiarui retreated helplessly: "I should have listened to you and taken it directly. Now it's like this, it's speechless! Old Huang, what are you still standing there for? Beat them!"
Ouyang Feng rushed forward to break the Arhat Formation. Yu Qian'an shook his head and said, "If you keep doing this, our reputations will be tarnished throughout the martial arts world in less than half a month!
I remember you had the ability to communicate with people, didn't you? How come you're so bad after coming to this world?"
