Chapter 80: A head-on confrontation between Sanzang and Gongjin! [Part ]

Chen Xiaohu suddenly didn't want to bother with this guy anymore.

He was clearly just urging me to sneak out tomorrow night to eat mutton bone soup, but he changed his mind in the blink of an eye?
"Master, isn't it said that the later we go, the less mutton there will be? There won't be any fresh mutton by then..."

Chen Xiaohu couldn't help but tease.

Tang Xiaolong looked a little unnatural, and said with a wry smile:
"Alright, Xiaohu. Finding the second volume of the treasure book as soon as possible is the most important thing!"

"As for mutton, you can go eat it next time."

Lin Xuan glanced at the two of them and said calmly:
"Let's not discuss this for now and go back to sleep."

"Let's talk tomorrow."

In his opinion.

Master Gongjin is not in a good state at the moment. He ran out like a mad bull just now and must have been greatly shocked.

May go berserk at any time!

At this time, it’s better not to join in the fun.

To avoid getting burned.

After all, according to Lin Xuan's guess, the only person in the temple who can suppress Master Gongjin is Abbot Sanzang.

Even if the elder guarding the pavilion comes, it will be difficult!
Of course, this is only for others.

But for Yu Xiaolong, Xiaohu and Xiaolan, it does not exist.

After all, the three of them are the reincarnations of Shaolin monks and have amazing luck.

Back in the dormitory, Xiaolong and Xiaohu must have been sleepy, so they stopped arguing and fell asleep on the bed.

Lin Xuan sat alone on the bed, practicing the "Dragon Elephant Subduing Demons" technique, and ran through the Great Circulation several times before closing his eyes.

……

……

late at night.

Shaolin Temple, Bodhi Courtyard.

In the main hall, a group of Shaolin elders gathered there with solemn expressions.

After hearing what Abbot Sanzang said, everyone looked at each other in astonishment:

"Is this true, Abbot Sanzang?"

"Gong Jin really came back and found the second volume of the Book of Power?!"

"Didn't he fall into the abyss of the Snow Valley and die back then?"

"How come you're back alive in Shaolin after so many years?"

"..."

Facing everyone's questions.

Abbot Sanzang nodded and said bluntly:
"It's Senior Brother Gongjin, that's right. He's still alive."

"I haven't been back to Shaolin Temple for so many years. I've been out looking for the second volume of the Book of Power."

Upon hearing this, an elder was puzzled:
"Gong Jin is too stubborn. Will he come back only after he finds the second volume of the Book of Power?"

"Yes, it has been so many years, even Abbot Tianlong is no longer here..."

"If we really find him back, what if he covets the position of abbot?"

"..."

Everyone was talking about it, and the topic became increasingly serious.

To be fair, Abbot Sanzang's character and virtues are admired and respected by everyone.

If we let him take the position of abbot of Shaolin Temple, everyone will definitely support him.

If Gongjin is brought back, he will make a fuss and fight for the position of abbot, which will be troublesome.

It may even disgust some monks.

Hearing this, Abbot Sanzang understood everyone's concerns, but now was obviously not the time to discuss this matter.

So, he straightened his expression and explained in a firm voice:

"Brother is not stubborn, but he went wrong in practicing the Sixth Patriarch's Ten Bull Skills. He was trapped by his obsession and lost his true nature."

Immediately, he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice:
"The most urgent task is to find him!"

"No matter whether the second volume of the Book of Power he brought is true or false!"

"From now on, all the monks, deacons, and supervisors in the temple, as long as their cultivation is above the Qi Yuan realm, unless there is anything else urgent, go down the mountain to look for him."

After a pause, Abbot Sanzang glanced at Elder Zhaozhen and others and warned:
"Also, elders, please do not deal with Senior Brother Gongjin alone. He has reached the Spirit Refining Realm, and is protected by his Primordial Spirit. His strength is no less than mine!"

The words fell.

All the monks' faces were filled with emotion!

Unexpectedly, Gong Jin also broke through to the Spirit Refining Realm!

From this perspective, it seems that Abbot Tianlong had a very experienced look back then.

"I will obey the abbot's decree!"

Everyone responded respectfully.

At the same time, I also remembered the abbot's words.

Don't deal with respect alone.

You have to know that the opponent is a Shaolin master in the Soul Refining Realm who is always on the verge of going berserk. If you are not careful, he will either be injured or disabled! ...

……

On the second day.

When Lin Xuan and others got up for morning class, they clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the temple.

Most of the powerful brothers had left, and even several elders were missing.

After morning class, Senior Brother Yuan Hai suddenly found Chen Xiaohu.

Tell him that Elder Xuanfeng is out for something.

The teaching examination was postponed directly.

Hearing this, even though Chen Xiaohu had guessed it this morning, a hint of joy still appeared on his face.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. Come and tell me."

Chen Xiaohu thanked him.

The Yuanhai monk smiled and said:
"This is Master's order, you are welcome, Junior Brother."

"However, Junior Brother, you must not be lazy in your training these days."

"I understand, senior brother." Chen Xiaohu nodded.

After watching Brother Yuan Hai leave, Hua Xiaolan approached Xiao Hu, looked at him curiously with her beautiful eyes, and asked:

"Xiao Hu, you don't seem surprised at all. Did you know that Elder Xuan Feng didn't have time to examine you today?"

"What happened in the temple? Why didn't I see Abbot Sanzang this morning?"

Xiaohu didn't know whether to tell Xiaolan.

He glanced at the silent Lin Xuan, and seeing that he did not say anything to stop him, he pulled her aside and explained in a low voice.

After a while.

Xiaolan suddenly understood.

It turned out that it was the uncle who respectfully returned to Shaolin Temple last night, and claimed that he had found the second volume of the treasure book.

"That's what happened. Xiaolong also suggested that we go look for Uncle Gongjin, but Senior Brother didn't ask, so we didn't go."

Xiaohu spread his hands and finished his words.

Xiaolan is a thoughtful girl. After listening to what Xiaohu said, she looked up at Lin Xuan:

"Brother, you don't want us to go. Are you worried about us?"

"Actually, there's no need to worry. Xiaolong, Xiaohu, and I have all reached great inner strength. With the martial arts taught by our master and the elders, we can deal with those in the Qi Yuan realm."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at the three people:

"When did you say you couldn't go?"

"Then go!"

Xiaolong suddenly looked up and stared at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan said decisively:
"Of course I want to go!"

"However, if you find Master Gongjin, don't act rashly. Follow my arrangements."

Lin Xuan remembered that in the original novel, Gong Jin and Abbot Sanzang finally fought with their souls in a ruined village. At that time, the Black Fox King had already arrived here, but he did not show up. Instead, he was lurking on the side.

After the two of them fought until both were injured, he secretly made a move, causing Abbot Sanzang and Gong Jin to fall into the ruins of the earth at the same time!

In the end, although Abbot Sanzang survived.

But Gongjin couldn't get out.

Most likely he died.

This is undoubtedly a tragedy.

Now that Lin Xuan is faced with this situation, he naturally has to stop all this from happening!

Apart from anything else, Gong Jin is also a master in the realm of spiritual refining.

If I could live.

By then, Shaolin will have two great monks in the realm of spirit refining in charge, which will provide additional help in dealing with the Black Fox King!
Moreover, it can also protect him, Long Hu Lan and the other two to a certain extent.

It's a win-win!

There was no reason for Lin Xuan to just sit back and watch this accident happen and do nothing!
"Yes, senior brother."

Hearing this, the three of them were delighted and agreed immediately.

"The second volume of the Book of Power that Master Gongjin found probably attracted the attention of the Black Fox Gang."

"Go back and grab your weapons first, just in case. We'll sneak down the mountain through the secret passage later."

Lin Xuan, who was familiar with some of the original plot, gave instructions to the three people.

Say it.

Long, Hu and Lan went back, got their weapons and reunited with Lin Xuan.

The four of them quietly slipped down the mountain along the secret passage through the sewer.
