Xiao Bing observed his expression and asked, "Could it be that Abbot Zhi Ming knows this Master Fang Wai? Is he related to Shaolin in some way? "
Abbot Zhi Ming sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, this Master Fang Wai is actually a junior disciple of mine."
"Junior disciple …" Xiao Bing was surprised. The image of this Master Fang Wai did not seem to fit in with these highly respected Shaolin monks in front of him.
Xiao Bing then thought of something and asked, "But Abbot Zhi Ming, your Dharma name is Zhi Ming. Your junior disciples' Dharma names also start with the word 'Zhi'. This Master Fang Wai …"
Abbot Zhi Ming said, "Just like what my junior disciple said, he gave himself this Dharma name to remind himself not to meddle in other people's business. Actually, this is all my senior disciple's fault … "
Xiao Bing said, "Blame you?"
"That's right." Abbot Zhi Ming sighed and said, "If it wasn't for me, he would not be wandering around."
"Senior disciple, this is not your fault!" Abbot Zhi Chan said, "Senior disciple Abbot, how can this be your fault? He broke the rules of the temple."
Abbot Zhi Ming shook his head and his tone suddenly became stern. He said, "Why can't you understand? In fact, in some aspects, we are not as good as Junior Disciple Zhi Hai! "
Only then did Xiao Bing understand that the real Dharma name of Drunken Top's master was not Fang Wai, but Zhi Hai.
Abbot Zhi Ming said with some regret, "This junior disciple of mine grew up in Shaolin, but his personality is different from all of us. Shaolin emphasizes the cultivation of the mind, but his mind seems unstable to all of us. However, his attainments in martial arts are not weak. Among all of us, he may only be slightly weaker than me."
Xiao Bing thought to himself, "He is only weaker than the abbot of the Shaolin Temple. That means he has great attainments. I didn't expect Drunk Top to have such an excellent master."
"Later, I became the abbot of Shaolin Temple. Like my late Master, I strictly followed the rules of Shaolin Temple. I also restricted everyone in Shaolin Temple to follow the rules of Shaolin Temple. Although we Shaolin Temple stay in Shaolin Temple and rarely go out, basically one or two people go out every year. Cultivation is about meditation, but if you can't experience what it's like to be in the world, it's difficult to really understand Buddha nature."
"One time, it was my two junior brothers' turn to enter the world. One of them was Junior Brother Zhi Hai. Half a month later, the two Junior Brothers returned. One of them harshly criticized Junior Brother Zhi Hai, saying that Junior Brother Zhi Hai had killed innocent people. After asking, I found out that they had met a local underground organization. These organizations are used to being tyrannical. They would often capture local girls and force them to have sex with them. In the end, Junior Brother Zhi Hai ran into them. Junior Brother Zhi Hai killed several of them. In the end, he was stopped by another junior brother who went with him. In the end, both of them came back. "
Drunk Top yelled, "That kind of bully deserves to be killed!"
Abbot Zhi Ming sighed, "Shaolin Temple emphasizes the cultivation of the mind. When we meet evil people, we try our best to use Buddhism to enlighten them. We try our best to give them a chance to turn over a new leaf. We don't always kill them. What happened next was simple. As the abbot who had just become the abbot, I couldn't protect my junior brother in front of all the Shaolin monks. So, I expelled Junior Brother Zhi Hai from the sect. Later on, I heard that Junior Brother Zhi Hai changed his name to Fang Wai and disappeared. "
Drunk Top said angrily, "You monks really don't know what's good for you."
Xiao Bing said, "Don't say that. I think Abbot Zhi Ming must have regretted it. But I don't know why he regretted it."
At this time, Abbot Zhi Chan said loudly, "Let me tell you. It was all my fault. I was the one who stopped Junior Brother Zhi Hai. After he came back, I was also the one who blamed Junior Brother Zhi Hai. In the end, Senior Brother Zhi Hai was forced to do things according to the temple rules. Later, Junior Brother Zhi Hai was expelled from the sect. I wanted to see what happened to the remaining people from the underground world. When I arrived there, I found out that two of them had bribed their connections and weren't arrested by the police. Instead, they killed the girl and her parents after getting drunk. Then, they fled without a trace. "
Xiao Bing frowned slightly. Everyone was filled with anger when they heard this. Master Zhi Chan's face was filled with pain. He sighed and said, "At that time, I knew I was wrong. I saved those people, but they killed others. I didn't kill them, but they died because of me!"
Xiao Bing heaved a deep sigh. Drunken Top said angrily, "You ungrateful bald donkeys. You expelled my master from the Shaolin Temple just for those villains?"
Drunken Top was clearly a monk, yet he still called others bald donkeys. However, no one was able to laugh. Everyone felt somewhat sorrowful, while Abbot Zhi Ming and the others had expressions of shame on their faces. This was indeed something that they had always regretted.
Abbot Zhi Ming asked, "What about Junior Brother Zhi Hai? Where is he now? "
Drunken Top's eyes revealed a trace of sorrow as he said, "When Master took me in, he was already ill. In the following ten years, his health was not good. Perhaps it was because of the depression in his heart. Before I finished my apprenticeship, he had already passed away."
Abbot Zhi Ming's eyes revealed a trace of self-blame and sorrow. He put his palms together and chanted with the other junior brothers, "Amitabha, good indeed."
Drunk Top said, "You big monks, if it wasn't for you, how could my master have died? If it wasn't for the special circumstances today, I would have wanted to learn from you! "
Abbot Zhi Ming sighed and said, "Everything happened because of me. If you want to blame someone, then blame it all on me."
"You big monk, do you think I won't blame you?" Drunk Top looked angry.
Xiao Bing patted Drunk Top's shoulder and said, "It's all in the past. It's useless to blame someone now. Moreover, Abbot Zhi Ming was indeed acting according to the rules of the temple. In fact, you can't blame him. Ah, Drunk Top, don't keep thinking about those things. Let bygones be bygones. "
Drunk Top said angrily, "Fine, I will give face to the master this time. But it won't be easy to forgive him."
Abbot Zhi Ming said, "Of course, of course. I can understand that you have resentment in your heart. Just vent all your resentment on me. I will bear all the consequences."
"Good! This is what you said. In the future, I will go and find you to demand justice! "
Xiao Bing did not expect Drunk Top to have such a grudge with the Shaolin Temple. Even Xiao Bing could not say much at this time. After all, this was Drunk Top's matter. Even if he was the master, he could only ask them to temporarily focus on the big picture. But if he interfered or stopped them in the future, it would be too much.
Xiao Bing secretly sighed in his heart. He could only hope that the two sides could untie the knot in their hearts as soon as possible.
Xiao Bing stood up and said, "Let's continue on our way. It will be dark soon. If it was during normal times, it wouldn't matter. But there will inevitably be some poisonous insects and snakes. The sooner we can find the Buddha Mountain Manor, the better."
Everyone agreed and continued on their way.
This time, it took them more than an hour to reach the edge of the Astral Mountain. Looking at the rolling mountains in front of them, Xiao Bing said with a serious face, "The Astral Mountain is in front of us. If we want to search the whole mountain, it will take at least two days unless we spread out and search every inch of the mountain. But if we spread out, it's definitely not safe. After all, our opponent is Buddhism, the most powerful organization in the Dark World. So we can only search bit by bit."
"Good!" The Pope looked up. At this time, it was already a little dark. Even the moon had begun to rise. The Pope asked, "Then shall we start the search now?"
Xiao Bing nodded and said, "After passing through this forest, we will reach the foot of the mountain. Why don't we go through this forest before it gets completely dark, and then rest at the foot of the mountain?"
"Okay!"
"I have no problem with that."
"I have no problem with that."
Everyone agreed and followed Xiao Bing's instructions. Then the group of people began to walk into the forest in a mighty manner.
When they were halfway through, the sky had completely darkened. There was even the sound of wolves howling in the distance. Xiao Bing said, "Let's hurry up."
Xu Mu said in a low voice, "It seems that the wolves are coming!"
Xiao Bing grunted and said, "I will go and deal with them."
"I will go." After saying this, Black Dragon went straight to the front. The others stood up and saw that in the darkness ahead, there was a dense crowd of faint eyes. At this time, pairs of eyes full of cruelty were staring at Black Dragon. It seemed that there were at least dozens of them.
Drunken Top laughed and said, "I will go and help too!"
After saying this, Drunken Top also rushed over. Black Dragon and Drunken Top rushed in, like tigers entering a flock of sheep. These wolves were usually very fierce, but in the hands of the two of them, they were the weakest of lambs. In the blink of an eye, they were completely slaughtered by the two of them.
Abbot Zhi Ming sighed and said, "Amitabha."
Drunken Top snorted and said, "You big monks are really merciful. Then why don't you stay here and use your own flesh to feed these wolves? Why do you need us to do it? Didn't the Buddha cut his flesh to feed the eagles? "
Abbot Zhi Ming said, "This old monk has no intention of blaming them. I just feel that it is a pity. Let us wait for this old monk to first help these dead souls."
