Chapter 1299 Xu Xian was assigned to Zhenjiang (for Herodo 1/4)

As the respected founder of Jinshan Temple, Zen Master Fahai should naturally be very positive.

In fact, in the original legends related to the White Snake Legend, Zen Master Fahai's image was indeed positive.

For example, in Feng Menglong's work "The King of War: White Snake Yongzhen Lei Feng Tower", Fahai is a positive image of a monk who has attained enlightenment.

However, as the subsequent interpretation of the legend of "The Legend of White Snake", Fahai's image gradually changed.

Especially some contemporary film and television dramas, even songs, distort and vilify Fahai's image, making him an indiscriminate image of an evil monk who specializes in breaking up other people's marriages and does not understand love.

This may be a need for artistic creation, and it may be understandable, but we should understand and understand that Zen Master Fahai in cultural history is a Taoist monk who has made great contributions to Zen culture.

Speaking of Fahai, we naturally have to talk about Jinshan Temple.

In his previous life, there were many temples called "Jinshan Temple" nationwide, and there were many places, but the most famous and influential one was undoubtedly Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu.

That is, the legendary Jinshan Temple was built by Zen Master Fahai, and it is also the legendary Jinshan Temple related to the Legend of White Snake.

Jinshan Temple has a history of more than 1,600 years since its establishment. During the Qing Dynasty, it was listed as one of the four famous temples in the country, along with Putuo Temple, Wenshu Temple and Daming Temple.

Jinshan Temple is also the only temple in the country that faces east and west, with the gate facing the Western Paradise.

The sunset is setting a few times, and the Zen Temple is still there. The name of Jinshan Temple has been in its forever in history and has a profound historical accumulation, which has welcomed countless literati and poets in history.

There are many related legends, and the most famous one is naturally related to the legend of the White Snake, "Shuihe Jinshan Temple".

As for why Jinshan Temple is related to the Legend of White Snake, Li Fan probably has something to do with Fahai, the founder of Jinshan Temple, who first came to Jinshan, defeated a legend that harmed the White Python that harmed all directions.

And what is the real reason? It doesn't matter, and it doesn't need to be scrutinized. Even if you have to scrutinize it, you are destined to be unable to find out the real reason.

After all, they are just some related legends, and sometimes they don’t need a reason.

...

On the way back to the village, Li Fan thought in his mind that the matter between Fahai and Bai Suzhen was not spoken for a while, and the question Qin Yulin just asked had not answered for the time being.

Qin Yulin waited for a while, but when Li Fan still didn't answer, he couldn't help but say in confusion: "Brother-in-law, what are you thinking? Ask you when Bai Suzhen will tell Xu Xian that we want to know in advance the identity of her thousand-year-old snake demon."

Li Fan pulled his thoughts back and said, "After the "Shuihe Jinshan Temple" serialized tomorrow, Bai Suzhen wanted to tell Xu Xian her true identity. It was precisely because of Bai Suzhen's water flooding Jinshan Temple that she had a bad premonition."

"Water floods Jinshan Temple?" the three girls asked in confusion at the same time, "Is Jinshan Temple not the place for monk Fahai? Why does Bai Suzhen want to flood Jinshan Temple?"

Li Fan did not say it, but said, "You will know after you read the serialization that you understand."

"Tsk!" The three women "tsk" at the same time, but did not continue to ask. Since Li Fan said that he would know after watching tomorrow's serialization, then wait until he saw tomorrow's serialization.

Anyway, time is approaching. If Li Fan said it now, he might have lost a sense of expectation when he watched the serialization tomorrow.

Therefore, the three girls stopped asking questions, but instead talked about other topics.

The three girls stopped asking, so Li Fan naturally stopped answering, but continued to think about things in his mind.

"The Legend of White Snake" is serialized on Weibo every day, and now it is finally the plot of Bai Suzhen flooding Jinshan Temple.

This is undoubtedly a very important plot in the entire work. Bai Suzhen violated the laws of heaven because she flooded Jinshan Temple and injured many innocent creatures. She was eventually detained in Leifeng Pagoda.

Previously, Xu Xian was sent to Gusu and opened a security hall in Gusu. With Bai Suzhen's secret assistance, Xu Xian's medical skills became famous in Gusu.

This aroused the jealousy of the doctors' fellow members of the "Three Emperors' Ancestors Association" and jointly designed to frame Xu Xian, but they were all resolved by Bai Suzhen one by one.

Moreover, Xu Xian also took the lead in the "Three Emperors Ancestors Association".

According to the rules, when Xu Xian was in office, he needed to show treasures to the outside world. In order not to embarrass Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen asked Xiaoqing to steal four treasures from the Liang Palace were exhibited on the same day.

Later, Liang Lian, the son of Prince Liang, went to Gusu to invite Xu Xian to treat Prince Liang. At the Third Emperor's Ancestors' Meeting, four treasures stolen from the Liang Mansion were discovered.

He designed to let Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian go to Beijing to treat Prince Liang's illness, but he stayed in Gusu, and had a conflict with Xiaoqing with the government, and wanted to arrest Xiaoqing.

After Bai Suzhen learned about it in the capital, she hurried back and advised Liang Lian to settle the matter, otherwise she would report it to the Liang Mansion.

Because the four treasures were not belonging to the Liang Mansion, but tributes dedicated to the court by other barbarian countries. They were detained by Prince Liang. If they were accused, they would be a serious crime for the whole family to be executed.

In the end, Liang Lian returned to Beijing with the treasure. When he left, Bai Suzhen asked Liang Lian to send Xu Xian back to Gusu with peace and safety.

However, after Liang Lian returned to Beijing, he tortured Xu Xian, penetrated his collarbone and took him to Gusu Prefecture for punishment.

Later, after a series of conflicts, Bai Suzhen threatened Prince Liang on the grounds of reporting the Liang Mansion. Prince Liang had to order Chen Lun, the governor of Gusu, to lightly sentence Xu Xian.

In the end, Xu Xian was sent to the death again, and this time the exile was Zhenjiang.

Later, because he was worried that Xu Xian would go to the capital to sue the emperor, Prince Liang wanted to kill Xu Xian.

So Liang Lian invited a monk who surrendered the demons and took the officers and soldiers of the Liang Palace to surround the teahouse where Xu Xian and Bai Fu, who were ordered to protect Xu Xian, settled.

Liang Lian asked someone to set fire to the tea shed, and a monk and a Taoist teamed up to kill Bai Fu (Hou Bai Fu was reborn with the help of Bai Suzhen), but Xu Xian was lucky enough to escape the disaster.

Afterwards, Xu Xian went to the capital to find Bai Suzhen and was captured in the Liang Mansion. Fortunately, he was detained by a monk who was detained by Liang Mansion and his master robbed him of prison and saved him. With the help of an old man, he escaped from the capital.

However, at this time Xu Xian already knew that Bai Suzhen had left the capital, and it was very likely that she had gone to Zhenjiang because she knew that she had been sent to Zhenjiang.

So Xu Xian decided to go to Zhenjiang to find Bai Suzhen.

Xu Xian's brother-in-law Li Gongfu learned that Xu Xian had been sent to Zhenjiang again, so he went to Zhenjiang to take care of him, but because of a grudge with the guards of the Liang Palace, he was chased and killed by the guards of the Liang Palace.

Later, he was met by Liang Lian, and Liang Lian also ordered the guards to kill Li Gongfu, but fortunately he was rescued by Xiaoqing.

And in this conflict, Xiaoqing finally killed Liang Lian in anger.

Fahai rushed to save him, but he was finally one step late and failed to save Liang Lian, but he seriously injured Xiaoqing.
