Traveling through the heavens starts from practicing swords in the palace

Chapter 37 Zen Master Putuo Invites
Lin Pingzhi heard Guang Cong said that this distinguished guest could make Shaolin Temple troublesome, so he couldn't help laughing and asked:

"Could it be that Mrs. Baihua is putting on airs as a young lady, and you can't serve her well?"

Guang Cong shook his head and said, "Madame Baihua and Miss Yufang, her accompanying girl, are polite and understanding, and they are not rude."

Lin Pingzhi said: "That's because Shaolin Temple doesn't accept women, so it makes it difficult for you?"

Speaking of this, Lin Pingzhi said again: "Speaking of the four of us in the Lin family, two of them are female family members."

"If there is any inconvenience, I would like to ask the eminent monks in the temple to forgive me."

Guang Cong said: "Young Master Lin, don't worry, my Putian Shaolin Temple has no rules not to accept women."

Lin Pingzhi said: "Since it's not for this..."

"Then does Mrs. Baihua take refuge here like our Lin family?"

"Her enemies are even more powerful than the Qingcheng Sect, and even your Southern Shaolin Temple finds it difficult to deal with them?"

Listening to Lin Pingzhi's continuous speculation, Guangcong just shook his head like a rattle.

He sighed, and said: "It seems that although Mr. Lin knows Mrs. Baihua, he doesn't have a close friendship."

"I don't know much about her family history..."

Lin Pingzhi said: "Master is right, I only have a casual acquaintance with her girl Yufang."

"I just want to go to Mrs. Baihua for something right now."

"It's really not very clear about her situation."

"According to Master, it is because of her family background that she troubled your temple?"

Guangcong said: "Hey, this Mrs. Baihua is the daughter of the governor of Fujian province."

Lin Pingzhi was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect this woman to be the official lady.

The governor has military and political power, so it can be said that he is a prince or an emperor.

It's no wonder that when you come to Shaolin Temple, you also live in a first-class guest room.

Seeing Lin Pingzhi's surprise, Guang Cong continued:

"My Putian Shaolin Temple is located in Fujian Province, so it is naturally under the jurisdiction of the governor."

"Hey, but to tell you the truth, Mr. Lin, our Jianghu sect has never had much dealings with the imperial court."

"No matter how high-ranking an official he is, we can at most be polite for a while and not be afraid of him."

"Madame Baihua makes us sad, not just because of her natal family, but because of her husband's family."

Lin Pingzhi became more curious and asked, "Her husband's family?"

"Listen to what you just said, Master Guangcong, you are not afraid of the government."

"It seems that Mrs. Baihua's husband is a well-established figure in the martial arts world?"

"Madame Baihua lives in your house, and his husband's family may not have feuded with your monastery."

"Why does it bother you again?"

Guangcong didn't say any more, just laughed a few times, and asked:

"Mr. Lin, just now you said you wanted to see Mrs. Baihua if you had something to do?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "Exactly, I met her girl Yufang a few days ago. She said that Mrs. Baihua's pet puppy was lost and asked me to help keep an eye on it."

"I promised at that time that if there was any news about the puppy, I would inform them."

"It is precisely for this that I want to visit her now."

With a complex expression on Guang Cong's face, he said slowly:

"Mr. Lin, Mrs. Baihua is married after all."

"Now she's living deep in the room, and it's not easy to find her."

"After noon, Mr. Lin can go to the gate of our temple."

"Madam Baihua will be there at that time, you can talk to her by chance."

Seeing that what he said was unclear, Lin Pingzhi wanted to ask questions later.

However, Guang Cong asked for a speech and said that he still needed to tell the monk who cleaned the guest room some things, so he turned his head and left.

After Lin Pingzhi chatted with him, he became even more curious about Mrs. Baihua.

But after hesitating for a while, he finally listened to Guang Cong and did not go to Room [-] of Tianzi immediately.

I returned to my guest room and practiced the exercises for a while, but suddenly I felt something was wrong.

He went to the next room and knocked on the door, but no one opened the door.

Go back to the room and ask Rui'er, "Have you seen my parents?"

Rui'er said: "Just now, a great master came over to send a message, saying that Zen Master Putuo wanted them to come over and sit and chat."

Lin Pingzhi sneered in his heart: "Humph, I've been clean for a few days, but I'm still here."

Rui'er saw that there was a difference in his expression, and asked: "Young master, do you have something to do with the master and madam?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "There is something wrong, I will go to Putuo to find them."

"Rui'er, you go with Young Master Buhe."

Ruier naturally agreed.

She didn't dare to interrupt Lin Pingzhi's practice in the past few days, and she didn't talk to the young master very much.

At this moment, I heard that the young master is willing to take me out, which is a big wish.

Since Lin Pingzhi knew that there were monks in the temple who wanted to misbehave with the Lin family, he didn't want Rui'er to be alone in the guest room.

Take her hand and go out together.

He didn't know where Putuo was, but fortunately, there were many monks in the temple, so he knew it when he asked.

He came to the Zen monastery where Putuo was located, showed his identity to the monk guarding the monastery, and asked him to pass on the message.

After a while, the monk came back with a message saying that Zen Master Putuo was invited.

Lin Pingzhi brought Rui'er inside.

Sure enough, in the inner room, Zen Master Putuo and Lin Zhennan and his wife were sitting and drinking tea together.

The fierce-looking monk Guangming was naturally also present.

Guang Ming's expression is arrogant, partly because of his own personality.

On the other hand, it is natural to pretend that the Lin family is not welcome, and retreat in order to advance.

No one would suspect that he was actually playing with the Lin family's evil sword manual.

Zen Master Putuo looked merciful.

Seeing Lin Pingzhi come in, he warmly greeted him and Rui'er to take a seat.

If Lin Pingzhi hadn't just heard about his plans, he would really have thought he was a virtuous monk.

Seeing Lin Pingzhi coming in, Lin Zhennan laughed and said, "Ping'er, you came just in time."

"Your mother and I wanted to bring you here, but we couldn't find you just now."

"I just told Zen Master Putuo that I will ask you to make a special trip to visit him someday."

Putuo also said: "Sponsor Xiaolin, Chief Escort Lin just discussed some martial arts matters with this old monk."

"It just so happened that you have made great progress in martial arts these days, and your swordsmanship is much more refined than before."

"If you trust the old monk, you can tell the situation of your martial arts training, and let the old monk help you to refer to it."

Lin Pingzhi secretly resented his father for selling him out, thinking that it would not be easy to refuse this request.

If I hesitate to speak clearly, I will definitely be suspected.

He smiled at the moment and said: "That's a good relationship. Chan Master Putuo, you have a superb cultivation level. You can give me a few words of advice and keep them for endless benefit."

"It's strange to say that in the past six months, I feel as if I've gotten through a certain trick."

"Not only is the practice of internal strength twice the result with half the effort, the swordsmanship is also handy, much faster than before."

Lin Pingzhi wanted to say that he had practiced half of the Sunflower Canon within half a month, and had gained more than ten years of internal strength, that would be too terrifying.

So nearly half a year, let these people accept it better.

This time span is inherently ambiguous.

Even if Lin Zhennan and his wife were strange, they would not delve into the exact date when their precious son began to open up.

Putuo pondered for a while, and said: "Above martial arts, there is indeed a saying of getting through the meridians or becoming enlightened."

"Some people have poor bones, and their progress in martial arts is very slow, but after they get through the two veins of Ren and Du, they can practice internal strength by leaps and bounds."

"It's normal for some people to have insufficient comprehension at first, and it's rare for them to learn the essentials in advanced martial arts, but they suddenly become enlightened one day."

"For example, Guo Jing, the hero Guo Jing who guarded Xiangyang in the Southern Song Dynasty, is said to have studied martial arts in the desert for 20 years, and he died."

"After leaving the desert, I made rapid progress and achieved great success in martial arts within a few years."

Lin Pingzhi was secretly amused. This great monk could really explain it. Even Guo Jing used it as an example.

On the surface, he naturally pretended to be taught, and said: "So that's the case. After the master said this, the younger generation suddenly became enlightened."

Putuo said again: "Today, I am destined to gather with you here."

"Donor Xiao Lin, you might as well show me some of your Lin family's sword skills."
