Just when Du Shanyue was in the limelight, Su Jing was quietly sorting out and revising the catalog of books in the Sutra Pavilion. With his good handwriting and serious and responsible attitude, he has been allowed to assist the book collector and have access to the library cave.

A vast array of books of all kinds.

He took the initiative to sort out the most complicated travel books. Any Xuanyuan disciple who is qualified to walk down the mountain can record what he sees, hears and does when walking in the rivers and lakes, and compiles it into a book and submits it in exchange for sect merit points. In the past hundred years,

The accumulated collection of these travel notes has resulted in an overwhelming number of books on this type of travel notes. There are so many of them that it is very difficult to sort them out.

The book collectors not only organize the books, but also excerpt the important information involved in the books, summarize them regularly and submit them to Qiankun Hall for reference in decision-making by the heads and heads of each hall.

It can be said that the strange things in the world, sects' grievances, conflicts between good and evil, martial arts gatherings, etc. are all involved, and the past lives of countless powerful people are vividly revealed on the page.

Su Jing first selected those travel notes from the same period as the ancient heroes.

The ancient hero has left too many legendary stories, and his shadow can be found in almost all the travel notes at that time. However, in the travel notes, there are not many mentions of master sculptors. After all, there are so many different lines, like mountains, that a warrior cannot

I won't pay attention to the carving business.

Su Jing spent all his time reading and searching, and his perseverance moved the bibliophiles who didn't know why, and they all lamented that there was someone to succeed him!

I don’t know how many books I read before the suspicious clues finally surfaced.

Although the seniors who traveled around the world did not pay attention to the sculptors, they had recorded martial arts events one after another. Just like the Xuanyuanmen viewing ceremony, the grand gatherings were often accompanied by magic weapon secrets, panacea, rare treasures, etc.

Transactions. There have been many records in travel notes: "...the Guanyin master carved by Wu Xin Jushi has both form and spirit, is solemn in appearance, and is worth thousands of gold." Although there are not many words, we can still imagine the superb carving skills of "Wuxin Jushi"

Already.

Before the debut of the ancient heroes, there were no records of Wuxin laymen.

After the death of the ancient hero, the sculptures of Wuxin layman were occasionally mentioned, but the frequency of their appearance was significantly reduced.

This shouldn't be a coincidence.

Su Jing closed the last book, raised his slightly sore neck, and stretched out his arms, his bones crackling softly. He looked at the rows of neatly stacked and dense books in front of him, and his heart was filled with joy and joy.

Sense of achievement.

The secret that no one has known for decades is very likely to be cracked by him!

This is related to the secret inheritance of Xiaogu Flying Knife. Once the news is released, I don't know how many conflicts and killings will be caused, and how many families will be destroyed.

With this secret, he has endless wealth and glory throughout his life.

Su Jing's mind suddenly moved. There were the most travel books but the least attention. Except for the disciples inside the Sutra Pavilion, few people came to borrow and read them, and no one was too free to delete them one by one and keep them.

With the original flavor, it records the most real world. Apart from the secret of Xiao Gu Feidao, are there no other secrets hidden under the water?

This is an inexhaustible treasure!

Xuanyuan Sect has never lacked talented disciples. Has no one discovered the secret hidden here before? No, it is impossible! He is definitely not the first person to try this. If there are seniors who consult the books with other purposes,

There should be clues left behind. If you follow the footsteps of your predecessors, you will surely discover more and greater secrets of the world.

Su Jing once again carefully looked through the piles of books from beginning to end, and he actually found some secret marks on the pages, among which a certain triangular mark appeared most frequently. He tried to read all the books with this mark.

After selecting it and summarizing it, I was shocked to find that these travel notes are all handwritten by the great masters, sect leaders, and principals! In other words, they are the travel notes of the young core disciples of Xuanyuan Sect throughout the ages. The words are full of vitality, passion, and strong passion.

Adventure spirit.

When they are promoted to masters or serve as heads, the written words are classified into the "grandmaster's notes" category, which are relatively confidential and important classics, and are revised and kept by special personnel.

Due to limited time, Su Jing suppressed his curiosity for the time being and did not further solve this new mystery. After handing over his errands, he immediately went into the city to find Qiao Hui.

"Wuxin layman? It's actually him!"

Qiao Hui was not idle during this period. Through the special channels of Jubao Pavilion, he found the list of master carvers of that year, among which the Wuxin layman was quite special.

The name, appearance, and place of birth of Wu Xin are unknown. It is said that he is best at carving Buddha statues. The statue of Guanyin he carved is known as "the best in the world" in the industry and is highly sought after by Buddhist temples. Most of his sculptures are

They are enshrined in Buddhist temples and are very rare in the world.

Su Jing was overjoyed: "Isn't it possible to see the masterpieces of the ancient hero in any big temple?"

Qiao Hui shook his head and smiled bitterly: "How can it be so simple!"

Speaking of what happened to Buddhism and major temples, we have to mention Chai Rong, the Emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty.

After Chai Rong came to the throne, he led his army to personally conquer the country and defeated the elite armies of the Northern Han, Khitan, Southern Tang and other countries. He achieved a series of remarkable results and was famous throughout the world. But on the other hand, the continuous wars caused a serious deficit in the national treasury.

The population dropped sharply, which even affected the replenishment of military resources.

In order to solve the difficulties of financial and military resources, Chai Rong took the advice of his advisers and personally presided over and launched a "Buddhist extermination" movement that swept the Central Plains in the second year of Xiande of the Later Zhou Dynasty. He ordered nearly 200,000 monks and nuns to return to secular life and demolished more than 30,000 temples.

Millions of acres of temple property were confiscated, and countless people melted Buddha statues into copper coins. Due to the mass extermination of Buddhism in the Central Plains, thousands of eminent monks either fled north to Yanyun and committed themselves to the Liao Kingdom, or went south to Jinling and took refuge in Li Tang.

The direct consequence of this incident led to the great power of Buddhism in the Southern Tang Dynasty, which led to the glory and prosperity of Wuxiang Temple.

After Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao rebelled and changed the Zhou Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, they also continued Chai Rong's strict restrictions on Buddhism and prepared to conquer foreign countries.

The major temples in the Southern Tang Dynasty were extremely frightened by this, fearing that the Song army would cross the Yangtze River and destroy the foundation of Buddhism. Therefore, they tried their best to persuade the Li Tang court to resist Zhao and Song Dynasty, and even sent monk soldiers to help. The Song Dynasty imperial army had suffered from the monk soldiers, and the military front had to be stopped.

He is located in the Huaihe River area, so his desire to win over Xuanyuanmen is quite urgent.

Qiao Hui spread his hands and said: "Emperor Zhou destroyed Buddhism and affected more than 30,000 Buddhist temples. Now the remaining temples are extremely low-key and will not easily accept outsiders. I estimate that it will be difficult to find well-preserved works by unintentional laymen.

Ascend to heaven." The movement to exterminate Buddha was so powerful that how could the Buddha statues carved by Wuxin laymen be spared? It is estimated that 99% of them were chopped into wood and burned.

Su Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, I was smart and saved some money in advance. It is recorded in the travel notes that the statue of Guanyin carved by Wu Xin was once auctioned, and finally fell into the hands of a hero. It does not belong to the collection of the Buddhist temple.

Scope." He took out a note and handed it to Qiao Hui, "Try to check if any of these three people have any descendants alive? If so, you can come to buy the statue at a high price."

Qiao Hui carefully put the note away, scratched her head and said: "Although this method of acquiring at a high price is good, I don't have enough money and I don't have enough confidence!"

Su Jing smiled and said: "You go to see the third child. Is it possible that such a trivial thing can defeat him?"
