Chapter 55: The Brocade Robe
The master and apprentice rode their horses to the mountain gate to visit, and it was indeed a temple.
The corridor room of the palace pavilion, row upon row, outside the mountain gate, ten thousand colorful clouds press the top, in front of the Wufu Hall, thousands of red mist surround.
The two roads are full of pines and cypresses, quiet and proud. See the bell and drum high-rise building again, the floating Tujun Tower.
Tang Xuanzang nodded secretly, this place is very magnificent, and it looks different from ordinary temples.
Tang Xuanzang turned over and got off the white dragon horse, Sun Wukong put down his burden, and just wanted to enter the door, he saw a monk walking out of the door.
The monk wore a hat on his head and an innocent garment. His ears were covered with brass rings, and his waist was wrapped with silk cloth. He has grass shoes on his feet and a wooden fish in his hands.
Tang Xuanzang saw it and said hello, and the monk hurriedly replied and asked with a smile: "Where is the elder from?" ”
Sun Wukong jumped over and said: "We are the Qincha of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and we go to Leiyin Temple to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures." It's getting late when I come to you, so I'm going to spend the night!"
When the monk saw Sun Wukong's appearance, he was a little scared, and hurriedly asked, "You, what are you?!"
Tang Xuanzang was unhappy, even if Sun Wukong looked different from a human being, he was also his own apprentice, this monk was too rude, and said: "This is my apprentice!"
The monk shuddered, bit his fingers, and said, "How can such an ugly and weird person recruit him as an apprentice?"
Tang Xuanzang has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, and it is indeed very incongruous with a sharp-mouthed monkey like Sun Wukong.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Tang Xuanzang was a little impatient, "I'm willing, can you handle it!"
The monk confessed again and again, so he had to accompany Tang Xuanzang and Sun Wukong into the mountain gate.
In the mountain gate, I saw the four big characters on the main hall, which was the Guanyin Zen Temple!
Tang Xuanzang was overjoyed in his heart, it turned out to be this place, this place is good, there are many treasures, if you can take some away, it will be even better!
Sun Wukong tied his horse, lost his burden, and went to the main hall with Tang Xuanzang.
Seeing that there was a bell in the hall, Sun Wukong looked strange, picked up the bell and began to knock, not in a hurry.
The monk hurriedly went to stop him and said, "What bell are you ringing?"
Sun Wukong threw away the bell pestle and said with a smile: "What do you know, I'm a monk for a day and hit the bell for a day!"
At this time, the monks and elders in the temple were alarmed, and when they heard the bell ringing, they poured out together: "Who is ringing the bell here indiscriminately?!"
Sun Wukong jumped out and scolded: "It was your grandfather who knocked it!"
When those monks saw this, they fell to the ground in fright, knelt down and kowtowed, "Grandpa Lei!"
Sun Wukong said with a smile: "Lei Gong is still my great-grandson! Get up, don't be afraid, we are the Qincha from the Eastern Tang Dynasty!"
The monks got up and saw Tang Xuanzang, so they were relieved not to be afraid.
The presiding officer of the temple said, "Please also send a messenger to the back meditation room to serve tea." ”
So Sun Wukong untied the reins, led the horse, took the burden, bypassed the main hall, and entered the back room.
The presiding officer of the temple offered tea and asked people to arrange a meal.
Tang Xuanzang was sitting there drinking tea, and saw two children behind him, carrying an old monk out.
The old monk wears a square hat on his head, a cat's eye stone on the top, and a brocade wool shirt with buttons made of jade. The monk's shoes are embroidered with precious stones, and the cane sticks are inlaid with jade. His face was wrinkled and his eyes were cloudy. Hunched back, full of wind, should be toothless.
The monks said, "The master is here. ”
The old monk said: "Just now the little ones said that the Tang Dynasty from Dongtu came to visit, so I came out to meet him." ”
"Qincha, how far is Dongtu here?"
Tang Xuanzang's eyes swept over the old monk's expensive ornaments without a trace, and said: "Out of the border of Chang'an, there are about more than 5,000 miles. After passing through the Two Realms Mountain, I accepted an apprentice, and all the way, after passing through the country of Xifanha, it took more than two months and five or six thousand miles to get to you. ”
The old monk exclaimed: "There are also thousands of miles away! I have never traveled such a long way in my life!"
Tang Xuanzang glanced at him again and said, "Old host, longevity?"
"Two hundred and seventy years old!"
Sun Wukong heard it and said, "Hehe, this is still my grandson!"
The old monk asked, "How old are you?"
Sun Wukong was afraid of scaring him, and said: "Don't dare to say, don't dare to say!"
The old monk took it as a joke, didn't mind, didn't reply to him, and asked someone to offer tea.
There was a little boy who took out a plate of mutton fat and jade, and there were three teacups inlaid with gold.
There was also a boy who carried a silver pot and poured three cups of fragrant tea.
Tang Xuanzang held it in his hand and sniffed it gently, this tea was refreshing, and it could be compared with the tribute tea of Princess Gaoyang's mansion.
Looking at the gold-encrusted teacup and silver-plated teapot, I couldn't help but say, "It's a good thing!"
The old monk smiled and said: "General, general! Qincha is the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and he has a wide range of treasures, so where is it worthy of praise for such a utency? Qincha is from Shangbang, but what treasures do you have to open our eyes?"
Tang Xuanzang smiled slightly, there are really them, and there are a lot of them, among which the most attractive to this monk should be the brocade robe.
The system gave him the Buddha's piece, and Nanhai Guanyin made another one at his own expense, which was also in his hands.
Then he asked the system to make one of the two robes, and one of the two tin rods.
"There's a precious robe!"
When the monks heard the robe, they sneered.
Although Sun Wukong has never seen the robe that the master said, he still has to defend the master and say, "What are you laughing at?"
The presiding officer of the monastery said, "It is ridiculous that the robe was a treasure. Each of us has at least twenty or thirty robes! Not to mention my ancestor, who has been a monk here for 250 or 60 years, has seven or eight hundred robes!"
He said to the old monk next to him: "Master, take it out and show it to them!"
The old monk asked someone to open the storehouse, and Toutuo brought out twelve cabinets, put them in the courtyard, unlocked them, put hangers on both sides, pulled ropes around them, shook off the robes one by one, and hung them up, and invited them to watch.
Tang Xuanzang saw that it was indeed hundreds of valuable robes, and sneered: "What is this!"
Turning his head to Sun Wukong, he said, "Wukong, take out the robe for the teacher, it's in the package!"
Sun Wukong muttered in his heart, what is the robe in the package, it is a few clothes that the master got for him, but since the master has an explanation, there should be a way.
He took a bag and untied it, and there was really a robe, wrapped in two layers of oiled paper!
Take out the robe, and when you shake it off, the red light fills the room, and the spirit is thousands!
When the monks saw this, they looked at each other and praised each other.
There are thousands of pearls and 10,000 kinds of Buddha treasures on this robe!
When the old monk saw this, his cloudy eyes suddenly brightened, and he hurriedly fell to the ground and shouted: "I am really not blessed!"
