However, she miscalculated.
Even if her attendants control Master Kongwen, Li Yao will not be coerced by him.
Of course, her attendants no longer had a chance to control Kongwen.
Li Yao's figure flashed, appearing in front of the carriage like a bolt of lightning.
Immediately, he brandished the stick, demonstrating the eight techniques of the Dog-Beating Stick Method—tripping, chopping, entangling, poking, picking, leading, sealing, and turning—to their fullest extent.
Soon, all of Zhao Min's followers were lying on the ground, some dead, some seriously injured and unconscious.
Zhao Min was stunned.
She never expected that she, along with the Xuanming Elders, Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San, and others, would sweep through the entire Shaolin Temple.
But now, Li Yao has almost single-handedly dealt with all of these people.
If this is the case, wouldn't Li Yao be able to sweep away the entire Shaolin Temple all by himself?
This strength is absolutely terrifying.
Chapter 110: Just a Visit, The Seventy-Two Shaolin Arts
Finished, that's all.
Wait, there are still some spoils of war we haven't gotten yet!
Li Yao glanced at the ground.
Immediately, pleasant notification sounds rang out one after another.
"Ding! Successfully picked up 'Luck Point', Luck +6!"
"Ding! Successfully acquired the 'True Qi' attribute, True Qi +4!"
...
This time, he gained a lot of different attributes.
Of course, Li Yao also acquired Ah Er and Ah San's "Vajra Finger" and the Xuanming Elders' "Xuanming Divine Palm".
At this moment, Fan Yao asked, "Master, what should we do with Zhao Min?"
Li Yao smiled and walked towards Zhao Min.
Zhao Min said viciously, "You'd better kill me, otherwise I will definitely..."
Bang!
Li Yao used his hand as a knife and slashed Zhao Min on the back of the head, knocking her unconscious. He laughed and said, "You're a prisoner now, and you still dare to be so arrogant."
Immediately, he ordered Fan Yao, "Lock her up; she'll be very useful soon."
Zhao Min's father, Prince Ruyang, held military power in the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.
Therefore, Zhao Min is a very good hostage.
Then, Li Yao walked to a carriage.
Inside the carriage sat a monk dressed in unusual attire.
Li Yao could tell at a glance that this monk must be Abbot Kongwen of Shaolin Temple.
Despite his dejected appearance, Master Kongwen mustered his spirits, chanted a Buddhist prayer, and said, "I am the abbot of Shaolin Temple. Thank you, Master Li, for saving me."
Li Yao said with a half-smile, "Master Kongwen, do you still think that self-preservation is effective?"
This is true. When faced with the Mongol invasion of Han China, the Shaolin monks did resist, but in order to protect the Shaolin Temple, they ultimately chose to protect themselves.
Even now, the Prince of Ruyang's mansion is still targeting their Shaolin Temple.
So what's the point of being a prudent person and protecting yourself?
If someone wants to kill you, they can pick up a butcher's knife at any time and kill you without saying a word.
Therefore, after hearing Li Yao's words, Master Kongwen lowered his head in shame.
Li Yao continued, "If you truly want to preserve Shaolin Temple, the only way is to completely eliminate these Tartars. Therefore, Shaolin Temple must cooperate with my Ming Cult to overthrow the Mongol Yuan Dynasty and restore our Han Chinese land. This is the true way to eliminate evil and protect the righteous path."
Today, Shaolin Temple almost suffered a catastrophic disaster, and Li Yao's words are thought-provoking.
Kong Wen pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement to cooperate with the Ming Cult to overthrow the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.
Li Yao pointed to the pile of corpses on the ground and laughed, "Master Kongwen, do you know who these people are?"
Kong Wen asked blankly, "Aren't they people from the Prince of Ruyang's mansion?"
Li Yao smiled and said to Wei Yi, "Wei Bat King, remove these people's headscarves!"
Wei Yixiao was taken aback for a moment, but he still did as he was told.
"It's a bald monk!"
As soon as the headscarf was removed from one of the people's heads, Wei Yixiao exclaimed in surprise.
However, remembering that Kong Wen was also a bald monk, he quickly smiled and said, "He is a monk."
He then removed the headscarves from many people and discovered that they were all bald monks.
Kong Wen was also quite surprised at this moment. Pointing at these monks, he asked in confusion, "Are they all monks?"
Li Yao nodded and explained, "These people are all members of the Vajra Sect of Shaolin Temple in the Western Regions. The founder of the Vajra Sect is the traitor of your Shaolin Temple, the Fire-Worker Monk."
"ah?"
Kong Wen looked extremely embarrassed, as if he had just eaten a rat dropping.
He never expected that a traitor from Shaolin Temple would have his disciples turn around and wipe out their Shaolin Temple.
How ironic!
Li Yao asked Wei Yixiao, "Wei Bat King, have you figured out the poison and antidote for the Ten Fragrant Tendon-Softening Powder yet?"
Wei Yixiao nodded and said, "Reporting to the Sect Master, I have already tested it. The blue porcelain bottle does indeed contain poison, while the red porcelain bottle contains the antidote."
Li Yao sneered, "Those Tantric monks are indeed very cunning!"
Then he asked Fan Yao, "Right Envoy Fan, was the poison that Master Kongwen and the others were given the Ten Fragrant Tendon-Softening Powder?"
Fan Yao cupped his hands and said, "As expected of the leader, you are very perceptive. They have indeed been poisoned by the Ten Fragrance Softening Powder."
Li Yao nodded and instructed Wei Yixiao, "Wei Bat King, give Master Kongwen and the others an antidote."
Wei Yixiao accepted the order and, together with Fan Yao, detoxified the Shaolin monks.
Soon, the poison in Master Kongwen and the other Shaolin monks was neutralized.
Master Kongwen and the other monks were naturally extremely grateful to Li Yao.
Afterwards, Li Yao had Wei Yixiao search A Da, A Er, A San, and the others.
Soon, Wei Yixiao found some unknown drugs and handed them over to Li Yao.
Li Yao smelled the black medicine and felt a fragrant and cool aroma wafting towards him.
He murmured, "Is this the Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Yao asked in surprise, "Master, do you recognize this Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment?"
Li Yao nodded and explained, "I once obtained Hu Qingniu's Medical Classic by chance, which recorded the medicinal effects of the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment, which is extremely effective for treating sprains and bone injuries."
Fan Yao then nodded in realization.
Li Yao put away the Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment, and then said to Kong Wen, "Master Kong Wen, I have a favor to ask."
Kong Wen quickly put his hands together and said, "Master Li has done a great service to my Shaolin Temple. Please speak freely."
A sly glint flashed in Li Yao's eyes, then he said with a serious expression, "I have long heard that the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository houses countless scriptures, and I would like to go in and take a look."
"this……"
Kong Wen's face froze instantly.
The Sutra Repository does indeed contain countless scriptures, and it also contains the Seventy-Two Arts of Shaolin Temple.
Li Yao's request was probably not to visit the scriptures, but rather to obtain the Seventy-Two Unique Skills.
Therefore, Kongwen is in a dilemma.
Knowing Kong Wen's concerns, Li Yao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just visiting the Sutra Pavilion. If I wanted to steal the Seventy-Two Arts of Shaolin Temple, why would I save you?"
Kong Wen thought to himself, "That makes sense. With Li Yao's strength, he could easily wipe out the Shaolin Temple in one go."
After hesitating for a moment, Kong Wen led Li Yao and the others to Shaolin Temple.
At this moment, Shaolin Temple was in complete disarray.
When passing by the main hall, I saw that the offering table in front of the Buddha statue was overturned to the side, the incense burner had fallen to the ground, and the ground was covered with incense ash.
Seeing this, Kong Wen and the other Shaolin monks immediately bowed and chanted in unison towards the Buddha statue, "Amitabha!"
Immediately, without Master Kongwen's instructions, the other monks began cleaning and tidying up.
Kong Wen couldn't help but sigh.
The calamity that befell Shaolin Temple today has severely damaged its vitality.
If it weren't for Li Yao's timely intervention, Shaolin Temple would probably have never recovered.
At this moment, Li Yao was not concerned about the rise and fall of Shaolin Temple, but rather about Shaolin's Sutra Repository.
Soon, under Kong Wen's guidance, Li Yao arrived at the Sutra Repository.
Chapter 111 Soul Transfer Technique, Next Stop: Beggars' Sect
The library is indeed a great treasure trove.
It is filled with a dazzling array of Buddhist classics.
As soon as Li Yao entered the Sutra Repository, his eyes gleamed.
