Chapter 46: Conspiracy against Tianlong Temple

Ben Yin sighed when he heard this: "This..."

Zhao Ti said, "I have known Master Benyin for a few days, and I am familiar with all of you masters. I feel like we are old friends, so I am just saying this out of the blue. If your temple is really in trouble, I can help you."

Ben Yin showed a thoughtful look, and after a moment he said, "I have been talking about martial arts with Mr. Zhao a lot recently, but I don't know how good your martial arts are."

Zhao Ti raised the corner of his mouth. Among the five monks in Tianlong Temple, except Ku Rong, the other four were about the same as Duan Yanqing.

Taking Baoding Emperor Duan Zhengming as an example, Duan Yanqing has strong internal strength, but Baoding Emperor Duan Zhengming is stronger than Duan Yanqing in actual combat, and also stronger than the Four Monks. This was proved when he fought against Jiumozhi. Benxiang and Duan Zhengming took Jiumozhi's flaming sword at the same time, but Duan Zhengming was unharmed, but Benxiang was spurting blood.

Zhao Ti has not stopped practicing martial arts these days. His Huan Yin Qi and Sunflower Qi have made further progress and are almost reaching the fifth level. If he were to face Duan Yanqing and the South China Sea Crocodile God together at this moment, he would definitely suppress the two of them completely, and it is hard to say whether he could even kill them.

He said: "My martial arts... should be no worse than those of the masters of this sect."

Ben Yin's face was solemn. The four brothers were on par with each other. Zhao Ti said that he was not inferior to Ben Shen, which meant that he was not inferior to him. Moreover, people would usually be modest when talking about their own martial arts, so maybe the real skill was even higher.

Although he had known Zhao Ti for the past few days and knew that he was not the kind of person who boasted, he still couldn't help but say, "Donor Zhao, you should never exaggerate when it comes to martial arts. You are of noble status, and it would be bad if you make some mistakes because of this."

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "Master Ben Yin, do you want to take a look or give it a try?"

"This..." Ben Yin smiled awkwardly: "Mr. Zhao, just show me a little bit, and let me see it. There is no need to test it."

Zhao Ti smiled lightly, raised his hand and pointed towards the window in front of him. Then he heard a gloomy and light voice, and the force of his fingers shot out, instantly making a hole in the window frame.

"Ah?" Ben Yin was immediately shocked: "Master Zhao, what kind of finger technique is this? Is it one of the Flower Picking Finger, the Formless Tribulation Finger, or the Dorje Leaf Finger?"

Seeing that this finger style was completely different from the One Yang Finger, he guessed several famous finger techniques in the world.

Zhao Ti shook his head and laughed, "Master Ben Yin was joking. What you said was all Shaolin martial arts. I have never been to Shaolin, so how can I know those finger techniques? This is a family martial arts."

"I am ashamed." Ben Yin put his palms together and said, "I saw that Mr. Zhao's finger strength was very strong, and I was shocked and forgot about it. I think Mr. Zhao's finger skills are better than mine."

Zhao Ti asked, "Master, can you please tell me about your dilemma now?"

Ben Yin sighed and said, "Actually, there is nothing to hide. Donor Zhao is a member of the royal family of the Song Dynasty and is not a man of the underworld. I am not afraid that Donor Zhao will hear it."

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "That's right. Song Li is friendly and this is seen in the imperial court. How can it be compared to the underworld?"

Ben Yin nodded and said, "That's right. Then I'll tell you something. Since you worship Buddha, do you know about the Great Wheel Temple in the Great Snow Mountain of Tibet?"

Zhao Ti said: "We know this place, and its sect is spread in the Western Regions, not in the Central Plains."

Ben Yin said: "Since Mr. Zhao knows, then it is easy for me to tell you. In the Dalun Temple, there is a Dalun Mingwang Jiumozhi, who has profound Buddhist teachings and superb martial arts..."

Zhao Ti listened to him quietly until he finished speaking. It was exactly the same as he remembered, except that the name of Six Meridians Divine Sword was hidden and replaced by the temple's unique skills.

He could not help but frown and said, "This Jiumozhi is really going too far. Although Dali and the Song Dynasty are not vassal states, they are both prosperous and famous places. He is a monk from a remote place, but he dares to do such a thing. It's really going too far!"

After hearing this, Ben Yin agreed with it. Dali had sent tributes to the Song Dynasty eleven times, hoping to become a vassal state. Although it was rejected every time, the country has always been proud of imitating the Song Dynasty, using Chinese characters, reading Chinese books, writing poems and lyrics, and boasting that it is a prosperous place. "What Mr. Zhao said is very true. This Great Wheel King is really unreasonable!"

Zhao Ti nodded: "In this case, I am willing to lend a helping hand to Tianlong Temple!"

Ben Yin said: "Donor Zhao, this is a family affair of Tianlong Temple..."

Zhao Ti said: "Song Li will be a family sooner or later. Since it's a family matter, how can you not help?"

Ben Yin thought for a moment and said, "Donor Zhao, I have to ask Uncle Ku Rong about this matter. Donor Zhao is a member of the royal family of the Song Dynasty. If something goes wrong in Dali, this..."

Zhao Ti said: "Master Benyin, please go now. Please tell Master Kurong that even if Master Kurong hesitates, I will definitely help you!"

Seeing that he was determined, Ben Yin hurried to Muni Hall to see Kurong. Zhao Ti sat in a chair thinking.

The only masters Dali can currently muster, apart from the five monks from the Tianlong Temple, is Emperor Baoding Duan Zhengming. As for Duan Zhengchun and the ministers and guards under him, they are not good enough.

It is still unclear whether Duan Zhengming will bring Duan Yu to Tianlong Temple for treatment. After all, he had changed the Langhuan Blessed Land, and Mu Wanqing had been with him before.

If Duan Zhengming had not brought Duan Yu here, it would not be very likely that Tianlong Temple would take the initiative to look for the other party. After all, although the Six-Meridian Divine Sword was precious, it was nothing compared to the country and people of Dali. The old monks could still tell which was more important. If Duan Zhengming made a mistake and the court was unstable and something happened, all the Tianlong Temple and all the peerless martial arts would be just illusions.

After a while, Ben Yin came back with a happy look on his face: "Donor Zhao, Uncle Ku Rong wants to see you."

Zhao Ti stood up and left the Zen hall, followed Ben Yin through the Wuwu Realm, circled the Tushita Bodhisattva Courtyard, passed the Yuhua Courtyard, and finally came to the Muni Hall.

After entering, he saw that his original meditation, original appearance and original view were all there, and there was also an old monk with a haggard figure looking at him.

Zhao Ti looked at the old monk and thought that this must be Ku Rong. Ku Rong’s martial arts skills were extremely high and could not be compared to the other three monks.

The old monk said, "Donor Zhao, I am Ku Rong. I just heard Ben Yin tell you about your origins and experiences. He also said that you are willing to help Tianlong Temple."

Zhao Ti clasped his hands and said, "I also worship Buddha and cannot stand the behavior of the demon king Jiumozhi. Besides, Song Li is friendly and has been seen in the court. Now that I have caught up with him, I will certainly help him."

Kurong looked at Zhao Ti with a sharp gaze: "Donor Zhao, this matter is critical. As a member of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, you are of noble status. What conditions do you require to help my Tianlong Temple?"

Zhao Ti smiled when he heard this. He didn't expect the old monk to be so direct.

Ben Yin said, "Donor Zhao, if you need anything, please let me know. Uncle Ku Rong can make the decision."

Zhao Ti shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet, how can I think of it right away..."

"This..." Ben Yin looked at Ku Rong when he heard this, and a hint of doubt appeared on Ku Rong's face.

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "Just do what suits the occasion. I don't want the skills that Jiumozhi asked for, I don't want any gold, silver or jewelry, and I don't want to take any books or things from Tianlong Temple."

Ben Yin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked at Kurong again. Kurong chanted a Buddhist name: "Donor Zhao has done a righteous deed, but I am too suspicious. Donor, please sit down and discuss this matter in detail."
