Chapter 216: Stealing the Yi Jin Jing

At the foot of Shaoshi Mountain in Dengfeng, Henan, Jiang Weichen sat cross-legged under a tree, practicing while waiting for dark.

If he wanted to enter Shaolin to steal scriptures, he would naturally have to go at night.

Shaolin is the most famous sect in the world, and now has many eminent monks of the Xuanzi generation.

Apart from Xuan Cheng who had gone astray by practicing the seventy-two unique skills and had his martial arts skills completely destroyed,

Xuan Ci, Xuan Ji, Xuan Bei, Xuan Nan, Xuan Ku, Xuan Du, Xuan Tong and others are all famous.

What's more, there is an unfathomable sweeping monk.

Time passed slowly, the sun set in the west, and night slowly fell.

Jiang Weichen put the Immortal-Slaying Sword into the Yandao Hall, took out a simulated human skin mask and put it on, then changed into a nightgown.

Then he started to practice the Stepping Void Step, and his figure was like a puff of green smoke, passing by the trees.

Soon he arrived at Shaolin Temple. He tapped his toes on the treetops and instantly arrived on the wall of Shaolin Temple three meters away.

During the day, he had disguised himself as a wealthy businessman and visited Shaolin Temple. After donating some money, he asked to visit the scenery of Shaolin.

With the help of money, the young monk in the temple took him to visit the scenery and architectural layout of Shaolin.

Now, coming again, with the help of foresight, he went straight to the Bodhi Temple.

Although there were warrior monks patrolling the temple, their martial arts skills were average and no one had caused trouble for a long time, so they were very lax.

Jiang Weichen was very skilled in lightness skills and he kept passing through one courtyard after another without being noticed by any of the patrolling monks.

Soon Jiang Weichen arrived at the Bodhi Temple. It was just getting dark and the monks had not yet rested. The candlelight was flickering inside.

Jiang Weichen stood in the shadows, restrained his aura, and sensed the situation calmly. There was no warning in his mind, so there should be no danger.

The Grand Master opened the Niwan Palace, giving birth to spiritual consciousness, which enabled him to see both inside and outside.

Jiang Weichen was not sure how far the Sweeping Monk could sense.

But the Sutra Repository is several hundred meters away, and the Sweeping Monk should not be able to sense the situation here unless he keeps his spiritual consciousness outward all the time.

In addition, after breaking through the transformation of strength, you have the ability to sense danger and avoid it. If your mind doesn't give you a warning at this time, then you should be fine.

Jiang Weichen poked a hole in the window paper and saw a middle-aged monk and six young novices cleaning inside.

Jiang Weichen performed the Lingbo Weibu technique, and his figure was almost invisible in the night.

After approaching the main hall, he used his secret finger to point out seven times in succession, and invisible finger force shot out, pressing the mute points of seven people while also freezing them in place.

After immobilizing the seven people, Jiang Weichen glanced around the hall and found a bronze mirror behind a screen.

The bronze mirror was polished to a sheen, gleaming in the candlelight. The flickering candlelight caused the mirror to alternate between light and dark.

There were only four Buddhist verses on it: All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, they should be viewed in this way.

In Jiang Weichen's memory, Ah Zhu seemed to have found the "I Ching Jin" from this bronze mirror.

Jiang Weichen came to the mirror, looked around, reached out and felt around the edge, but couldn't find the secret compartment.

He reached out and touched the Buddhist verse on the mirror. When he pressed the fourth "yes", a creaking sound was heard.

Jiang Weichen turned to the back of the bronze mirror. The secret compartment had been opened, and there was a cloth bag inside.

Jiang Weichen picked it up and opened the cloth bag. It turned out to be a book with three big characters on it: Yi Jin Jing.

Jiang Weichen casually opened it and saw that it was written in Sanskrit. However, since he had the scriptures, the Sanskrit text would not be difficult for him.

Having achieved his goal, Jiang Weichen naturally didn't want to stay any longer. As for the martial arts in the Sutra Library, he didn't care at all.

He turned and walked out of the hall. Although the seven people saw Jiang Weichen's actions clearly, he was wearing a mask and night clothes, and it was night.

Once I leave Shaolin Temple, they won't know where to find me in such a big world.

After leaving the main hall, Jiang Weichen did not stop for a moment and went straight out of the temple.

As he flew past a courtyard, a man also wearing nightgown suddenly jumped out from the side.

When the two met, they were both startled. After looking at each other for a few times, Jiang Weichen found that it was not Murong Bo. He nodded to him and went out of the temple in a few jumps.

The man in black laughed and said, "Interesting, another master who stole the scriptures has come to Shaolin."

After saying this, he also went out of the temple.

After a while, the man in black came out of Shaolin Temple and found the man standing in front of him. He stepped forward and asked, "Are you waiting for me?"

Jiang Weichen turned around and asked with doubt: "Xiao Yuanshan?"

The man in black was stunned for a moment, then asked in a bad tone: "Who are you? How do you know my name?"

He had been hiding in Shaolin for 10 to 20 years, and even the man in black who came a few years ago didn't know his identity.

I met this person for the first time tonight, and I didn't expect him to reveal his identity at a glance.

He has no acquaintances in the Song Dynasty, and those who know him just think he is dead.

Jiang Weichen confirmed Xiao Yuanshan's identity, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Are you planning to kill someone and frame your son?"

Qiao Feng's identity was exposed in advance because of his intrusion and because he did not kill Kang Min.

But now Qiao Feng is still the elder of the Beggars' Sect.

In the original novel, after Qiao Feng's identity was exposed, Xiao Yuanshan began to deceive his son.

Xiao Yuanshan's thoughts were revealed, and he immediately used the Prajna Palm to strike from mid-air.

Jiang Weichen had no intention of fighting with him in Shaoshi Mountain. He used his lightness skills to dodge and quickly went away.

Xiao Yuanshan chased after him, and the two of them quickly descended Shaoshi Mountain, one in front and the other behind.

After reaching the foot of the mountain, Jiang Weichen stopped, and Xiao Yuanshan stopped right after Jiang Weichen, but did not take any more action.

Xiao Yuanshan shouted, "Who are you?"

Jiang Weichen did not answer, but said: "You killed Zhao Qiansun, you killed Zhiguang, you killed Mr. Tan and Mrs. Tan, you killed Xuanci and others, and you all had your reasons for killing them.

They teamed up to kill your wife, and it's only right for you to seek revenge, but there are two people you shouldn't have killed."

Xiao Yuanshan was a little shocked when he saw Jiang Weichen so easily reveal the truth he had been investigating for many years.

"Could it be that you were also one of the participants back then?"

Seeing Jiang Weichen shaking his head, Xiao Yuanshan snorted coldly: "I hope you are not, otherwise I will not let you go."

After saying that, Xiao Yuanshan asked again: "Then tell me, which two people should not be killed?"

Jiang Weichen replied, "You shouldn't kill Qiao Sanhuai and his wife. They are just ordinary people. They have no grudge against you. On the contrary, they are a favor to you."

When Xiao Yuanshan heard this, he burst into laughter, and his laughter could be heard from far away.

After laughing, she pulled off her scarf and questioned, "Have you done me a favor? Ridiculous. What have they taught my son to be like?

My son is a Khitan, but they taught him to be loyal to the Song Dynasty. Now they let him go around killing Khitan warriors. Is this considered a favor?

Jiang Weichen asked in return, "Were they the ones who taught your son and made him do these things?

They are just ordinary people, do they know that much?"

Xiao Yuanshan said sternly, "Kill them! Only by killing them can my son escape his Song identity and be free from all ties to the Song Dynasty."

Jiang Weichen sighed and said, "Xiao Yuanshan, the man outside Yanmen Pass who showed mercy to the enemy even when his wife was dying, is really dead."

Jiang Weichen agreed with his revenge, as he was also a person who would never give up, but Jiang Weichen despised him for killing someone who had done him a favor.

Chapter 217: Human Appearance, My Appearance, and All Living Things

Jiang Weichen didn't wait for Xiao Yuanshan to answer and said, "You, Xiao Yuanshan, didn't fulfill your responsibilities as a father. Qiao Sanhuai and his wife fulfilled that responsibility for you and raised your son to adulthood.

You can kill those who taught your son martial arts and let your son kill the Khitans because you have a position.

But Qiao Sanhuai and his wife didn't deserve to die. Killing them won't help, it will only make Qiao Feng feel guilty."

Jiang Weichen was not being kind-hearted, but wanted to spare Qiao Feng one less regret, as a way of repaying him.

For someone like Qiao Feng, he would definitely feel guilty because his biological father killed his adoptive parents.

As for another regretful person, Azhu, she was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, and it was not certain whether she could meet Qiao Feng.

Xiao Yuanshan was lost in thought when Jiang Weichen spoke again, "That's all I have to say. It's up to you whether you listen or not."

Jiang Weichen stood up and left. When Xiao Yuanshan saw Jiang Weichen leaving, he immediately chased after him.

When Jiang Weichen discovered that Xiao Yuanshan was chasing him, he suddenly didn't dare to use the stepping step that consumed true energy to fly, and instead used the Lingbo Weibu that could accumulate true energy and ran wildly on the road.

Jiang Weichen wanted to see if Xiao Yuanshan could catch up with him.

Under the night sky, the two of them, one in front and one behind, looked like ghosts.

After one kilometer, five kilometers, and ten kilometers, Xiao Yuanshan's speed gradually slowed down.

Jiang Weichen turned around without blushing or beating his heart. The true energy of a late-stage grandmaster could only last for ten kilometers?

I ran ten kilometers, and not only did my Qi not get consumed, it actually increased, which is equivalent to the result of meditating for half a quarter of an hour.

Xiaoyaozi, who created the Lingbo Weibu, is indeed a brilliant idea.

Jiang Weichen looked at Xiao Yuanshan who suddenly stopped, his face flushed, knowing that the hidden danger in his practice of Shaolin skills had appeared again.

He immediately stopped and said, "Xiao Yuanshan, it's better for you to practice less of the Shaolin 72 unique skills. The more you practice, the more likely you are to go astray.

There is a man named Xuan Cheng in the Xuan generation, who is said to be the most talented martial artist in Shaolin in the past two hundred years.

He practiced thirteen Shaolin martial arts and was known as the 'Thirteen Divine Monk', but he eventually became possessed and his skills were completely wasted."

"Also, it's better for you to avoid going to the Shaolin Sutra Library. There is a great master hiding there."

After Jiang Weichen finished speaking, he quickly walked away. When Xiao Yuanshan heard what Jiang Weichen said, he was shocked and confused.

He wanted to chase after him and continue asking questions, but his Fengchi acupoint was aching slightly. Jiang Weichen's lightness skills were not weak, so he could only watch Jiang Weichen disappear in the moonlight.

…………

The next day, Jiang Weichen arrived in Tokyo, the capital of the Song Dynasty. He had no intention of wandering around, so he went straight to Daxiangguo Temple.

Daxiangguo Temple was the royal temple of the Song Dynasty, highly respected by the emperor and favored by dignitaries.

Its status in the Song Dynasty far exceeds that of Shaolin Temple. Shaolin has an extraordinary status in the martial arts world, but it is not favored by the Song Dynasty.
