Please ask me to be the emperor

After some time, it was the day to worship Buddha. All the monks in the temple "fast, bathe, burn incense and chant sutras".

Li Ji met the monks who were unprepared, so he personally led five hundred soldiers, wrapped in armor and armed with swords, and broke into the scripture hall.

How could these monks be prepared? They are all wrapped in cassocks and carrying wooden fish. How can they resist?

Immediately, Li Jiyu led the crowd forward and stabbed one of them to death. Some who resisted with their hands cut off their arms with a knife; some who tried to turn around and run away were chopped to the ground and stabbed to death on the spot; some brave ones picked up the wooden fish in their hands and threw them at the rebels, but only The armor of the rebels was smashed, and there was no pain at all.

In addition to the temple, Shaolin Temple also has twenty-five other halls and courtyards, which are called the four courtyards in the east, west, south, and north, as well as various halls, nunneries and Zen courtyards.

Li Jiyu took the lead in attacking the Yonghua Hall in the south courtyard of Shaolin Temple. Shaolin Yonghua Hall was built in the 20th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. Its founder was the 26th generation abbot of Caodong Zhengyi, the ancestral Shaolin Temple in the Ming Dynasty, and the Wuyan Zhengdao Zen Master who was proficient in Zen martial arts and medicine.

Yonghua Hall is located on the south bank of the Shaoxi River in Shaoshi Shanyin, across the river from the ancestral Shaolin Temple Changyuan on the north bank of the Shaoxi River, so it is commonly known as the South Shaolin Temple.

Yonghuatang is famous for its three specialties of "Zen, martial arts and medicine". It has always been said that "the world's Kungfu comes from Shaolin, and Shaolin Kung Fu comes from Yonghuatang".

His Shaolin warrior monks and Shaolin lay disciples were ordered to go on many expeditions, participating in wars such as fighting against the invasion of Japanese pirates along the southeast coast, the crusade against the Jurchen rebellion in Jianzhou in the Northeast, and the encirclement and suppression of rogue bandits in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Countless people died for the country.

Therefore, in terms of threat level alone, the monks at Yonghua Hall in the South Campus of Shaolin Temple pose the greatest threat to the rebel Li Jiyu.

As luck would have it, the South Campus of the Shaolin Temple happened to be close to the rebel camp on Yuzhai Mountain. Li Jiyu took the opportunity to attack and entered the Sutra Hall of the South Campus in one fell swoop.

There are no monks in the Sutra Hall who have not experienced war, but they are unable to fight against four punches with both hands and cannot be used as weapons with bare hands. Even in Shaolin Kung Fu, it is rare to be able to use bare hands with bare hands.

In the sutra hall, blood flowed like a river, and corpses were scattered in the sutra hall. The remaining hundreds of monks held futons, Zen staffs, lamp posts and other objects in the sutra hall and stood guard under the Buddha statue.

The old monk who was the leader couldn't help but shouted: "Li Jiyu! You traitor, is this how you worship and respect Buddha?"

Li Jiyu laughed loudly when he heard this. He laughed for a long time until his tears came out, and then he said: "Buddha said: Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha on the spot! We will kill all you guys who bully men and women. It is just right." Follow the Buddha’s teachings!”

"When the time comes, you will go to hell, and I will naturally enter the Western Paradise and achieve great results!"

"Bah!" the monks couldn't help but cursed angrily, "A robber who kills people and sets fires dares to deceive his mind and call himself a Buddha? Aren't you afraid of five thunderbolts from heaven?"

"Don't be afraid!" To the surprise of the monks, Li Jiyu replied categorically, "If the sky has eyes, it would be appropriate to beat you bunch of fake monks who deceive the world and steal their reputation first. How come it's my turn, Li Jiyu?"

"Since you have nothing to say, just be obedient and get on your way as soon as possible. I have to rush to other halls to slay demons and defend the Way!"

The monks had no choice but to recite "Amitabha" in a low voice and rushed forward with whatever they had at hand.

Li Jiyu gave an order, slashed with knives, and poked with guns. After a while, only an old monk was left sitting cross-legged under the Buddha statue and whispering the rebirth mantra in a low voice!

Li Jiyu struck with a knife, and the gushing blood splashed on the Buddha statue, dyeing the Buddha's face behind the old monk bright red, dripping down the chin of the Buddha's face, and dripping between the index finger and thumb of the Buddha. superior.

The Buddha statue in this sutra hall bears the Dharma seal, which is said to be the seal formed by the Buddha and Bodhisattvas when they preached sutras. The monks set it up in the lecture hall, hoping to listen to the Buddha and Bodhisattva's sermons at all times.

It’s a pity that although this Buddhist teaching is good, it can’t help those who have no destiny!

When Li Jiyu and other rebels killed all the monks in the south courtyard, they crossed the Shaoxi River covered in blood and went straight to the permanent residence of the Shaolin Temple.

The resident resident of the Shaolin Temple is the main temple of the Shaolin Temple. At this time, the news of Li Jiyu's murderous general coming in was obtained through the monk who had escaped back.

They quickly closed the temple door and hurriedly summoned their monks and lay disciples to "protect the Dharma."

But where can I get it? After Li Jiyu and others rushed to the Chang'an Hospital, they saw that the door was locked, so he ordered his soldiers to find beams in the south courtyard to knock against.

After hitting it seven or eight times, only a clear "click" sound was heard, and the door latch of the Shaolin Temple gate was broken.

The next moment, the temple door opened, and a group of warrior monks armed with sticks, shovels, and spears rushed out. Li Jiyu was not surprised at all, he just took off the long bow from his back and shot a heavy arrow from the big bow.

The monks in the temple all wear thin robes, how can they resist? Unexpectedly, Li Jiyu shot an arrow through the person in front and nailed the person behind him.

When all the soldiers saw that Li Jiyu was so brave, their morale was greatly boosted. Li Jiyu also quickly abandoned his longbow and went up with a big ax to kill without hesitation.

All the soldiers rushed forward in a swarm. The wooden sticks could not be hit, the shovels were not hurt, and the spears could not penetrate.

Before the monks could take back their tactics, they immediately attacked with swords and guns, and made two moves. Some monks were even chopped down by Li Jiyu's big axe, and their entire bodies were deformed.

After a while, everyone killed the monks and captured the temple abbot alive. The old host couldn't help but shouted: "Li Jiyu, our Shaolin Temple has nothing to complain about and worry about you, so that you are like this!"

Li Jiyu felt happy and said with a smile: "Noble people often forget things. There are too many grudges in Shaolin Temple. I'm afraid they have forgotten it a long time ago!"

"The monks in your temple disturbed my wife and caused my son to have a miscarriage. Although my husband and wife are very loving now, we still have no children. This is one of them!"

"Later, the monks in your temple falsely accused me of treason, so I had no choice but to abandon my family property and gather people to commit robberies. The Shaolin Temple was willing to be the court's lackey, harassing and guiding the officers and soldiers many times, and this is the second reason!"

"Now I have elite soldiers and strong generals, and I am temporarily staying in Yuzhai Mountain. The monks in your temple have harassed me many times, and they dare to come and stroke the tiger's beard. I am afraid that I don't know what happened today? This is the third reason!"

"The above three are all personal enmities, so that's fine. It's just that your Shaolin Temple claims to be a place where people eat fast and chant Buddha, but in fact they prey on the common people, prostitute women, and are even better than the king's bully. If I, Li Juyu, can't do justice for heaven, what's the point of me? Stand in the world!"

After hearing this, the abbot of the Shaolin Temple couldn't help but sigh: "When I forced them to abandon evil and do good, there was no one who didn't complain. You should have known what happened today!" Then he died with a knife and gun.

Since the abbot of Shaolin Temple died, the Shaolin monks either dispersed or surrendered. Li Jiyu was not shy about it, and all those who surrendered were accepted.

Afterwards, they coerced these monks to kill other halls, and only killed all the twenty-five halls of Shaolin Temple before stopping.

At this time, Li Jiyu was tired, his knife was curled up, his gun was bald, and his ax was blunt. Then he felt a little regretful and said, "Did I go overboard with this killing? My lord has always been kind and righteous. If he knew that I was like this, would he blame me?"

Chen Jindou couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "General Li, doesn't he understand the principle of 'if you don't do one thing, you won't stop doing the other thing'? If you want to kill him, you will kill him." Although my lord is benevolent and righteous, he always hates evil and hates evil, so he turned around and distributed the stolen goods seized in the temple to It’s just one share for my lord!”

When Li Jiyu heard this, he couldn't help but said happily: "The one who knows me is Jin Dou! I regret that I didn't listen to your words earlier."

Li Jiyu's bloodbath in Shaolin was a real event in history, and the Shaolin Temple suffered relatively large damage as a result. It was not until the early Qing Dynasty that there was any recovery. As a result, the Qing court no longer appointed Shaolin as its director, and the power of Shaolin Temple began to decline! It was not until after liberation that the original Shaolin Temple was liquidated. Apart from the name and location, there is almost no big relationship between the Shaolin Temple today and the Shaolin Temple in history. Please don’t take your seat!
