Chapter 2 The Second Hiding in the Ice Valley and Encountering Strange People

Gui Huasheng smiled and said, "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have woken up yet. Who are you?" The lama in white noticed the two lotus petals in his mouth, and then looked at the blue, white and red strange Hua, said in a voiceless voice: "Hey, it turns out that this is the Asura flower. I only know of this flower from Buddhist scriptures, and I don't want to see it here. Who are you, and why do you have such supernatural powers? Can you wake me up?" Gui Huasheng said: "I'm just an ordinary Han Chinese. I happened to have a Tianshan snow lotus that can detoxify a hundred poisons. It's nothing to save you by chance! Why is this asura flower so surprising to you?" the white-clothed lama said. : "Asura means devil in Sanskrit, so it is also called devil flower. It is recorded in "Buddha Kingdom" that when a person smells the fragrance of this flower, it is like encountering a devil. Immediately fascinated by it, it really is not bad. This flower can only be found on the extremely high ice peak, and now they transplant it here, and they can do a lot. Hey, who are you carrying? Are you from them? "

Gui Huasheng asked: "Who are they? Who are you?" The lama in white was surprised: "You don't know who they are? Then what are you doing here?" Gui Huasheng said: "I just want to visit this devil The secret in the city." The lama in white murmured: "Devil City? No wonder there are demons dancing here. So, you are really not one of them? Since you are not, you go down the mountain quickly!" Gui Huasheng shook his head, and the white lama Zhuang Rong said: "If you don't go, I'm afraid you can save me, but I can't save you. Go away!"

Seeing his solemn persuasion, Gui Huasheng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll sneak away later." At this time, a black cloud flew from the sky, covering the crescent moon.The mountain wind blew again, and the lama in white rushed up the mountain, and Gui Huasheng followed him secretly while the night was dark. When the dark clouds parted, the lama in white had disappeared.Gui Huasheng took advantage of the stone barrier to take a peek, and found that he had arrived in front of the White Pagoda.The white pagoda has a strange shape, and there is a square temple below it. In the temple, there is a tall tower with a round pavilion built on the top. On the lower floor of the tower, there are two eyes molded on the outer walls of the four sides, and there are two curved lines on the eyes. Under the eyebrows, there is something that seems to symbolize the nose, which is shaped like "?". Not only has Gui Huasheng traveled all over the world, he has never seen it before, even in books.

The two gleaming buildings are right next to the white pagoda. In front of the white pagoda, there are two black-clothed warriors facing each other. Walking, each walked to one end of the temple, then turned around and walked towards each other again, and it went on and on again, which was very funny. Gui Huasheng was excellent in lightness kung fu, and when they turned around, a "white crane soaring into the sky" flew over their heads and landed on the side of the bright and bright building. This house was actually made of solid ice. The other house was not so cold, but it tasted salty when licked on my fingers. It turned out that this one was made of crystal salt.Gui Huasheng smiled secretly: "Devil City really has a well-deserved name. The places, houses, and characters are all eccentric."

Looking around, the two warriors guarding the gate of the temple were walking to one end, and before turning around, Gui Huasheng flew away, falling like a leaf, falling silently.When the two warriors turned around, he had already flown up to the first floor of the White Pagoda, hiding in the cornice of the corner of the temple, secretly peeking down from the translucent glazed tiles on the top of the temple. But I saw a huge Buddha statue several feet high in the temple. A middle-aged man with eagle nose, deep eyes, long hair and shawl, wearing a big red robe decorated with pearls, looked very majestic, standing in the middle of the Buddha statue, on both sides There was a row of monks and a row of warriors. At this time, three Tibetans dressed as officials saluted him.

I only heard a black-robed monk call his name and said: "The envoy of the Sakya feudal king, the envoy of the Nongzan feudal king, the envoy of the Yadong feudal king to meet the prince." Gui Huasheng's heart moved, and he thought: "So this person is the prince, look He looks and dresses clearly, he is not a Tibetan, where did this prince come from?" Both the monk and the prince can speak Tibetan quite fluently, but the prince said: "I don't expect any reward, and I wholeheartedly help you three vassals to become the overlords of Tibet. As long as you treat the people I send well, I You will send troops to help you in the future, do your vassals understand?" The three Tibetan officials said one by one: "Understood, we are here to make an alliance with the prince."

The prince laughed loudly, and the head monk came out, holding a skull filled with blood wine, and handed it to the prince respectfully. The prince held up the skull and said loudly: "Jirong Kirida Bujiashi?" This Tibetan saying means: "I am proud to drink your leftover wine. Do you agree?" Gui Huasheng was stunned. Startled, he could understand the Tibetan words, but he didn't know the meaning.The envoy of the Sakya feudal king took a sip first, and the prince took back the skull wine vessel, took a sip as well, and handed it to Nongzan and Yadong's envoy of the feudal king in turn.After the ceremony was completed, the prince laughed and said: "From now on, we are all one family. I will send someone to train your army first." Gui Huasheng suddenly realized that this ceremony is just like China's blood alliance.The prince's words are the etiquette of the guest first giving way to the host.

The three vassal envoys drank the blood wine and retreated one by one.After staying for a while, the monks on both sides sang loudly: "The envoy of the Dharma King has arrived!" The prince smiled and went up to greet him in person. It was the two white-clothed lamas led by the black-clothed warriors who came.It seemed that the prince attached more importance to these two men than the three vassal envoys. The prince bent down, returned a salute to them, and said, "The dharma king is in good health?" The two lamas in white clothes respectfully said, "I am blessed by the Buddha, and I am safe." I feel very uneasy, so I wish to act as a Dharma protector and welcome the Dharma King back to Tibet. I don't know if the Dharma King understands the mere meaning of it?"

The leading lama in white said: "Relying on the prince's strength and protecting the holy law, the Dharma king is so happy. He sent his disciples to come to thank the prince and make an alliance." Gui Huasheng was taken aback and thought to himself : "For more than a hundred years, the disputes among various sects in Tibet have caused several conflicts. If the Baijiao in Qinghai wants to fight back to Tibet, wouldn't it set off a monstrous storm." The prince laughed loudly, raised the skull wine vessel again, and said loudly: "Jirong Kiri, Dabujiashi!" The leading lama in white took the wine vessel, and was bending over to drink. Suddenly, the monks and warriors on both sides shouted loudly, and the prince shouted loudly: "Who is here? Trespassing on the holy temple!"

Gui Huasheng took a closer look, and saw that it was the lama in white who had been awakened by himself. He held up the nine-ringed tin staff and shouted: "Mashi Canaan, the protector of the throne of the Baijiao Dharma!" As soon as this remark came out, the monks and warriors on both sides showed astonished expressions. The prince frowned and said, "Messenger of the Dharma King, who are you here now, how dare you pretend to be a fake?" Raising the nine-ringed tin staff against the wind, the two strings of gold beads on the head of the staff rattled. He raised his head and smiled, and a golden Buddha statue hanging around his neck shone brightly.

The two white-clothed lamas who came first were very surprised and said, "Why did the king send you here again?" It turned out that these two white-clothed lamas were the king's confidantes. This time they came to Devil City to make an alliance with the prince. Only a limited number of people in the church know about it.This Max Canaan's seniority is very low in the Baijiao, and his position is not a guardian envoy. It is said that he should not know about this matter, let alone be his envoy, but the nine-ring tin rod in his hand, and the golden statue But the Buddha statue is indeed a magic weapon in teaching. Seeing their expressions, the prince guessed that there must be something strange, rolled his eyes, forced a smile and said: "Okay, the French king sent an envoy, which shows that this matter is solemn, and you also come to participate in the alliance. Jirong Kiri, Dabujia Time!" Max Canaan rolled his eyes, and unceremoniously snatched the skeleton wine vessel from his companion, and suddenly smashed the skull with a horizontal blow, splashing the bloody wine on the ground, and said loudly, "What order?" Alliance? The King of Fa has ordered you two to rush back quickly, and you must not let the evil spirits go astray!" The two white-clothed lamas who came first changed their colors, and one shouted: "Dharma King really said that?" The other shouted: "The Dharma King's oracle is now in my hands. You are so bold to spread the Dharma decree!" Max Canaan said: "You Which dharma king's decree is it preaching?" The lama in white scolded: "How many dharma kings can there be? I am passing on the decree of the fifteenth dharma king who empowered the national teacher and turned the wheel!" Max Canaan said loudly: "the first dharma king The Fifteenth Dharma King has long been in meditation, and what I am passing on is the decree of empowering the sixteenth Dharma King, the national teacher and wheel-turning Dharma King!" Among the red, yellow, and white lamas in Tibet, only the Baijiao Dharma King can take the Zen position, but the fifteenth Dharma King is in his prime and ambitious, so there is absolutely no reason for the Zen position.The two lamas in white were stunned for a while, and shouted in unison: "Okay, it turns out that you gang of apostate demons have usurped the current Dharma king's position. Prince, this envoy is fake!" Max Canaan shouted: "You two are fake!" Of course, the prince stood by the two white-clothed lamas who came first, and said with a sneer: "If you don't ask, you can tell the truth from the fake. Then there is a reason to make trouble in this holy temple." With a wave of his hand, the two white-clothed lamas and the black-clothed warrior who led them in immediately rushed forward. Only two slaps were heard, and the two white-clothed lamas had been knocked unconscious on the ground by Max Canaan.The black-clothed warrior gave a strange howl, and pulled out a gleaming crescent scimitar. With a swipe, he slashed at Max Canaan's neck. The head was hooked by the crescent scimitar, and a stream of sparks splashed out. Max Canaan slapped his staff back, and both the tin staff and the blade touched a small gap. The black-clothed warrior quickly retracted the saber, turned the saber light, and took the middle plate again.Max Canaan unfolded his tin stick, like a horned dragon flying in the air, and the black warrior also danced the crescent scimitar vigorously, chopping, stabbing, hooking, chopping, every time the knife and stick intersected, there was a jingle sound! Gui Huasheng thought to himself: "The black-clothed warrior's crescent scimitar has a special shape, but when it comes to martial arts, it doesn't necessarily have anything special about it. It's this Max Canaan's stick technique, which is fierce and powerful. It's perfect, but it can be compared with Middle-earth's crouching wand." Sure enough, it only took a moment, but seeing Max Canaan yell loudly, and with a wave of his tin staff, he knocked out the crescent scimitar of the warrior in black and flew out of his hand. The prince snorted and murmured a few words, but it was not in Tibetan. A monk standing at the head of the first row came out with bare hands and shouted in Tibetan: "Take this tin staff Let me down!" Max Canaan yelled angrily: "Come and get it if you have the ability!" The tin stick circled and danced in a circle, enclosing the yellow-clothed monk in the shadow of a mountain like a stick. The monk sneered coldly, and stretching his palms in a circle, he actually led Maxcanan's tin staff out of the outer door, stepped on the middle palace immediately, and slashed Maxcanan's wrist with his palm.Gui Huasheng was secretly surprised, and said in his heart: "I heard that Tianzhu martial arts has its own school. The ancestor of Shaolin School, Bodhidharma, came from Tianzhu (India). Tianzhu, Tibet, Nepal and other places are adjacent to each other, and martial arts schools influence each other. It seems that the yellow-clothed monk's palm technique and the Chinese internal palm technique have their own merits. The sticking and connecting styles are somewhat similar to Taiji techniques. It can be seen that although Chinese and foreign martial arts are different, the principles of martial arts are roughly the same. In terms of internal strength, this yellow-clothed monk's strength can reach the top level in China." Max Canaan's stick technique is masculine, while the yellow-clothed monk's palm strength is feminine. It's just a competition between outsiders and insiders. After fighting for half an hour, the strengths and weaknesses are gradually separated, but Max Canaan Sweating like rain, the strength of the nine-ringed tin rod weakened, and the moves were often controlled by the enemy, unable to do what they wanted. Gui Huasheng secretly screamed that it was not good, but when he saw that the yellow-clothed monk circled his palms with both palms, the move was somewhat similar to the Wudang School's "Holding the Moon in His Arms". live! At this moment, even Gui Huasheng thought that Max Canaan's nine-ringed tin rod was about to be taken away by him, but when Max Canaan's tin rod shook, several golden lights suddenly shot out. The two strings of gold beads are not ornaments, but hidden weapons. The yellow-clothed monk was caught off guard, and hurriedly let go, but was hit in the eye by a golden bead, and immediately covered his eyes and yelled.The prince was furious and waved his hand. The monks and warriors on both sides rushed forward one after another. Maxcanaan threw the nine-ringed tin staff into the wind, and dozens of golden beads shot out. However, all the warriors and monks were prepared, and many of them The master only injured a limited number of people, but Max Canaan was stabbed twice and received another palm on the shoulder from the monk in yellow.The yellow-clothed monk blinded him, he was so angry that he chased and beat him regardless of the pain! Max Canaan was also considered clever, and sent out the two strings of golden beads at once. Although he could not retreat from the enemy, he took advantage of this opportunity to run out of the temple, but how could the yellow-clothed monk let him go, and the other two A monk followed and chased out of the temple gate. The yellow-clothed monk was very handsome, I saw him jumping in the air, turning around in mid-air, his big fan-like hand had already grabbed Max Canaan's vest, and Max Canaan was so alive, he felt the back of his head Feng Sheng, Huo Di backhanded a stick, only heard "Ouch", the yellow-clothed monk went up and down, and fell headfirst.Max Canaan was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "How come he fell before my magic staff touched his body. Could it be that there is really Buddha power secretly helping me?" There were two more screams, and the other two monks also fell down! These few blows were as quick as lightning, none of the monks and warriors chasing after them could clearly see how the three monks were defeated.Hearing a loud shout and whistling wind, Max Canaan's eyes blurred, as if two red clouds were flying towards the sky, he looked closely, and saw that the prince and another monk in red had already rushed in front of him.Max Canaan was shocked, knowing that these monks were distinguished by the color of their cassocks, and the monks in red were the highest. No wonder the martial arts were so good, and the prince had such skills, which was beyond his expectation. It was too late and then it was too late, I saw the red-clothed monk spread out his cassock, and "slapped" Max Canaan to the side. The prince shouted: "Leave me the nine-ringed tin rod first!" As soon as he flipped over, he immediately grabbed the golden ring on the rod, and suddenly there were two chi-chi sounds, and the prince yelled loudly, as if he was injured a little, but he still snatched Max Canaan's nine-ringed tin rod from his hand.The monk in red raised his cassock and followed him, Huo Di gave him a slap in the chest! Max Canaan was being dizzy from the palm wind of the monk in red, when he suddenly felt his body lighten, and he was lifted up like a cloud and fog.It turned out that it was Gui Huasheng who helped him, and he knocked down the three monks with broken tiles. The prince yelled, and jumped up the tower as soon as he jumped. Gui Huasheng saw that he was able to jump high and low when he was hit on the acupuncture point. He turned around and shot out the palm. Although the prince was extremely brave, how could he block Gui Huasheng's internal strength, and he fell to the ground with just one palm.The monk in red came after him, he slapped it with his palms, and the monk in red was shaken too, suddenly he let out a strange howl, he shook his red cassock and covered his head.Gui Huasheng jumped out of the way, and the monk in red followed him quickly, his cassock fluttering in the air, and he rolled in quickly. Canaan, move around and show off, after all, he can't do whatever he wants, risking his cassock being rolled up.The two fought on the temple, and quickly chased to the second floor of the White Tower. I saw the monk in red pressing his hands on the eaves, suddenly he jumped up to the third floor, condescending, and the red cassock quickly covered him like a cloud of fire. At this moment, he saw a white light The flash, like lightning in the sky, pierced through the thick stratus clouds. It turned out that Gui Huasheng pulled out the Tengjiao sword handed down in his family.At that time, his father Gui Zhongming used this Tengjiao sword to defeat countless martial arts masters, and won the title of one of the "Seven Swords of Tianshan". Jia Zhenli, even if the monk in red is very powerful, he can't stop this cloud piercing sword.But seeing a flash of white light, the big red cassock had been pierced with two big holes. The monk in red threw away his cassock, let out an angry roar, and raised his palms together.Gui Huasheng didn't know his origin, and he didn't want to hurt him. As soon as he got the sword formula, the Tengjiao sword swayed in front of him, drawing his eyes away. Sheng turned the hilt of the sword upside down, tapped his chest lightly, and immediately fell from the top of the three-storey tower.Gui Huasheng laughed long and loudly, carried Max Canaan on his back, turned to the back of the white tower like lightning, jumped off the ground, and immediately sprinted towards the top of the mountain. The sea of ​​clouds on the mountain is confused, the snow peaks stand tall, the snow and the moon shine together, and the scene at night is even more beautiful.Gui Huasheng ran for a while with Max Canaan on his back, and gradually felt a little out of breath. Looking down, the "Devil City" under his feet could only see a pointed white tower under the mist.Looking up, Xuefeng is high in the sky, and the top is invisible. The place where I stand is only on the mountainside, but it already feels a bit "too high to be cold". Seeing that Max Canaan was still in a coma, Gui Huasheng stroked his pulse, which was very rough. It didn't look like he had suffered an internal injury, nor did he seem to have had acupuncture points tapped. He felt very strange, and after walking for a while, suddenly Feeling the cold wind, there is a warm and humid air rushing towards the face. Looking ahead, there is a basin between two peaks in front of it. There is a fountain that is hissing and spraying water. The scorching water is blown away by the wind and forms a There are clusters of white garlands, where the fountain is located, and the atmosphere is relatively hot. Under the ice rocks, there are actually many flowers with unknown names blooming, which is like a world in a fairy tale.Gui Huasheng thought: "Even if they chase after them, it will take some time to catch up here. I just happened to rest in this valley for a while." Gui Huasheng walked to the fountain, put Max Canaan down, and examined him carefully, but he didn't know what injury he had suffered, and he fell into a coma.Putting Tianshan snow lotus close to his nose didn't work, obviously he was poisoned by some kind of poison.Gui Huasheng couldn't do it, so he had to gather his true strength in the palm of his hand, rub it gently around the "Tianshu point" on his spine, and push the blood across the palace for him.This "Tianshu point" is the general outline of the meridians. Gui Huasheng used the best point-solving skills in the "Dharma Sutra". It can be untied, and sure enough, after a while, Max Canaan woke up slowly, and shouted: "Oh, it turned out that you saved me, so hurry up and unblock the blood-clogged meridians." He struggled for a while , still unable to move. Gui Huasheng asked: "What is the meridian that closes the blood, and where is it?" Max Canaan also knew a little Chinese martial arts, and said: "It's like your internal acupuncture points. I know where it is, and I still use it." Do you understand?" Gui Huasheng's family has a long history, and his teachers and friends are all top figures in the martial arts. He is familiar with the acupuncture techniques of various schools and schools, but he just doesn't understand this kind of exotic acupuncture. Max Canaan said: "Have you ever learned the Meridian bleeding method?" Gui Huasheng shook his head and asked him carefully.It turns out that it was spread from Europe to Arab countries, and then from Arab countries to India and Nepal, and then adopted the "breathing formula" of Indian yoga, creating a kung fu similar to Chinese acupuncture.Max Canaan knew this kind of kung fu from the current Dharma King. It is the kung fu of blocking the qi and blood of a certain part of the human body according to the time, so that it cannot flow naturally. Originally, this kind of kung fu is far inferior to the Chinese acupuncture method. It's profound and magical, but Gui Huasheng doesn't understand this kind of kung fu, and Max Canaan can't teach Gui Huasheng to know it. Gui Huasheng carefully tried to use various superior acupoint-relieving techniques to relieve his acupoints, but it was ineffective at all. Instead, it made him cry out in pain frequently. Gui Huasheng rubbed his hands and said with a wry smile: "There is no way!" After finishing speaking, there was a sudden "click", a stone was thrown from nowhere, Max Canaan suddenly yelled, and jumped up, Gui Huasheng was taken aback, and was about to jump out to see, but Max Canaan Canaan pulled it, and shouted: "So you know it, but you lied to me on purpose, and you worry about me!" It turned out that the stone came while Max Canaan was struggling to turn around. Nan didn't see it at all, but felt as if Gui Huasheng's fingers were touching a certain position on his waist. Gui Huasheng was even more surprised. He jumped onto the ice rock, but saw the wind blowing in the treetops, the wild flowers falling, and the clouds on the mountain, as if covered with a layer of mist and ice. Where is the shadow of anyone?Gui Huasheng thought in his heart: "This man throwing stones to relieve acupoints is very extraordinary, and his lightness is unmatched by anyone. Unexpectedly, in this poor and foreign land, he really met a strange person!" Max Canaan said: "Hey, what are you looking at? Are there any pursuers?" Gui Huasheng shook his head and jumped off the ice rock. The two sides exchanged names. Gui Huasheng smiled and said, "You can always Tell me, who are they?" Max Canaan said: "The prince is the prince of Nepal, and those people are the monks and warriors he brought." Gui Huasheng was taken aback, and exclaimed: "This prince is very ambitious!" Max Canaan said: "Yes. But I heard that this prince is not the prince of the king of Nepal, but his nephew. The king of Nepal has no sons. Son, he wanted to inherit the throne, so he cultivated a group of party members and invited many warriors from Arabian countries and even from Europe. Some masters of Indian Brahminism also became his guests. In order to consolidate his position, he wanted to make meritorious service Overseas, destroy Tibet first and make it his vassal state." Gui Huasheng said "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" It was an ancient city. Later, the terrain changed. There was a desert in the front and icebergs in the back. The ancient city has been completely weathered. The natives here heard strange noises in the wind every night, and they dared not go in to explore. Everyone said that this is a devil city. The Nepalese prince built houses, temples and white pagodas on the ruins of this abandoned city, and has been operating it for several years, but the Manchu Qing minister in Tibet didn’t know anything about it.” Gui Huasheng said: "He contacted those vassal kings and wanted to instigate your Baijiao Dharma King to fight back to Tibet. This just gave him a chance to fish in troubled waters." Max Canaan said: "Our current Dharma King is not like him. when." According to Max Canaan, Gui Huasheng knew that there were two factions among the Baijiao lamas. The former Dharma king was the old school, who advocated the use of force to fight back to Tibet, so he did not hesitate to collude with the Nepalese prince.The modern dharma king is originally a dharma master in charge of classics and scriptures, and his status in the religion is second only to the previous dharma king. He has learned the martial arts of esoteric Buddhism from the secret books, and he is proficient in Sanskrit and Nepalese languages. Among the Baijiao, he is famous for his profound knowledge, and he is supported by some people.His views are different from those of the previous Dharma kings, and he advocates peace with the Yellow Sect who is now in power in Tibet. He is called the new sect.This time the matter of the former French King's collusion with the Nepalese prince was leaked, and the two factions clashed. Nine out of ten people who supported the new faction finally deposed him the day after the former French King sent the two envoys. Gui Huasheng heard that there were such talents among the lamas of the Baijiao, and he yearned for him very much. He said, "If you have anything you want me to do, I will do my best." Pai, although fortunately fulfilling their mission and preventing them from signing the covenant, losing the staff is a great shame. I have to go back and report to the King immediately. Please do one thing for me, go to Lhasa to meet the Dalai Lama, and report What you have seen and heard tonight, and convey the thoughts of my Dharma King on your behalf." Gui Huasheng said: "I heard that the two living Buddhas, the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama, are not easy for ordinary people to see." Mai Shijia Nan removed the golden Buddha on his body, handed it to him and said, "You take this as a token. With your martial arts, you can enter the Potala Palace quietly." Gui Huasheng took the golden Buddha, looked up, and saw the shadows of men in black on the hills on both sides of the north and south. Gui Huasheng smiled and said: "The pursuers sent by the Prince of Nepal have finally found here!"
