Chapter 171: Become a Shaolin disciple
Escorted by the escorts of the Changfeng Escort Agency, Cao finally arrived at the majestic and magnificent gate of the Shaolin Temple in Songshan.
This ancient temple, which has been passed down for thousands of years, is like a wise man who has experienced many vicissitudes of life, exuding an awe-inspiring solemnity. The melodious and deep bell sound, echoing slowly among the mountains, seems to penetrate the soul, and makes people involuntarily feel an indescribable awe. Cao Ye's bright and fiery eyes, full of excitement and expectation, stared at the heavy vermilion gate and the towering palace, with an unwavering light in his eyes, as if he had seen his brilliant achievements in the future on the road of martial arts.
The escorts dismounted swiftly, and Cao Ye hurried forward and bowed deeply with gratitude to the escorts who had escorted him all the way without any effort.
"Dear escort brothers, I have been through hardships and hardships along the way. Thanks to your dedicated protection, I am grateful beyond words." Cao Ye's voice was sincere and earnest, and every word was filled with true feelings from the bottom of his heart. The voice was particularly clear in front of the empty mountain gate.
Chief Escort Lin Hong, a man with a sturdy and resolute face and a tall and straight figure like a pine tree, smiled warmly and encouragedly. He patted Cao Ye on the shoulder affectionately and said earnestly and expectantly, "Mr. Cao, when you go to Shaolin, you must study hard and concentrate on your studies. You must not slack off in the slightest. We bid farewell here. I sincerely wish you a bright future and that you will soon become a respected martial arts hero."
Cao Ye bowed solemnly again and said goodbye to the escorts one by one. He stood there quietly, watching the escorts' figures gradually disappearing in the vast sight, and then took a deep breath, turned around and took firm and powerful steps, resolutely walking towards the heavy gate of Shaolin Temple that carried countless martial arts legends.
When Huikong, the monk in charge of reception in the temple, heard that Cao Ye was coming to become his disciple, he hurriedly led him into the temple respectfully. In the majestic and magnificent Mahavira Hall, Cao Ye finally had the honor of meeting the Shaolin monk Huineng.
Huineng's eyes were as sharp as torches, as if he could see through the essence of everything in the world. He looked at Cao Ye carefully from top to bottom, and said slowly but with every word weighing a lot: "Donor, you have come from afar, and I believe you have a sincere heart to learn martial arts. But you must know that the most important thing about Shaolin martial arts is to cultivate your mind and cultivate your character. Do you really understand the profound truth contained in it?"
Cao also clasped his hands together respectfully, bowed slightly, and answered solemnly and devoutly: "Master, I have long known the famous saying that one must cultivate the mind before practicing martial arts. I am willing to study hard in this sacred place of Shaolin and do my best to comprehend the mysterious meaning of the fusion of martial arts and the mind."
Huineng nodded slightly, with a barely perceptible gleam of approval in his eyes, and said, "In that case, if you want to become a disciple of Shaolin, you must pass three difficult and severe tests. First, you must stand in horse stance under the scorching sun for two full hours to test your endurance and perseverance; second, you must lift a stone lock weighing 100 kilograms with one hand 50 times to test your strength and unwavering determination; third, you must sit in meditation in a quiet Zen room, abandoning all distractions and concentrating your mind for an hour to test your character and extraordinary concentration. Only if you can successfully pass these three tests can you become a lay disciple of Shaolin."
Cao did not hesitate, and there was no hesitation or retreat in his eyes. He agreed decisively, his eyes were firm, and his body was as straight as a pine tree, as if he was ready to face all the difficult challenges. He resolutely came to the open space in the center of the temple, and stood firmly in the scorching sun. The scorching sun was ruthlessly baking the earth, and sweat was flowing down like a raging waterfall, quickly soaking his clothes. His legs gradually trembled under the long-term support, but he bit his lips tightly, clenched his teeth, and his eyes were as firm as a thousand-year-old rock. He relied on his indomitable perseverance to persist for two full hours.
Then, he walked firmly to the place where the stone lock was placed, took a deep breath, and held the heavy stone lock tightly with one hand, and lifted it up again and again. Each movement seemed to use up every bit of strength in his body, his muscles were tense like a bowstring about to break, his veins bulged like a winding earthworm, and each breath was accompanied by a heavy gasp, but he always had a firm determination to practice martial arts in his heart, and with his indomitable perseverance, he finally successfully completed fifty difficult challenges.
Finally, Cao Ye walked into the quiet Zen room with a solemn expression, sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and tried his best to get rid of all the complicated and chaotic thoughts in his mind. The noisy sounds of the outside world gradually faded away, and his heart gradually became like a calm lake. In the end, he sat in meditation for an hour without any distractions.
When Cao Ye completed all the tests and dragged his exhausted but determined body back to the Main Hall, Huineng's face broke into a smile of relief and satisfaction.
"Your will is strong and resolute, and you have successfully passed many tests. From now on, you are a lay disciple of Shaolin. Although you are a lay disciple, you must strictly abide by the temple rules, practice diligently and hard, and not be lazy or negligent in the slightest."
Cao did not hesitate and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, his voice clear, loud, and resolute: "I am willing to follow your teachings and will never let you down."
