Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Good Show

This old monk couldn't find the robe, and burned the house of the temple, and when he was in great trouble, how dare he agree when he heard this?

The monks broke in and said, "Master Zu, quickly return the robe to the monks!"

The old monk had a bitter face, shook his hands, and said, "The robe, it's gone!"

"Oh?" Sun Wukong jumped out, "The robe is gone?" I think you have a bad heart and want to swallow the robe alone!"

When the monks knew that their master and apprentice were gods, where did they dare to face the ancestral master, they all said: "Master Zu, don't anger the divine monks, quickly hand over the robe!"

"Why don't you believe me!" The old monk was trembling by the scene in front of him, "The robe, it's really gone!

"Hey, hey, search!"

Sun Wukong saw the robe taken by the black bear monster with his own eyes last night, so he naturally knew that he couldn't find it, or he pretended to rummage through the cabinets in the house and search for it.

Only then did he say: "It seems that it is really lost!"

Then he swept over the faces of the monks and said, "If any of you has taken the robe, hand it over quickly, and spare you from death!"

The monks looked at each other, suspicious of each other, looking at each other, and looking in their eyes: "Did you steal it?"

The presiding officer of the monastery stood up and said, "Listen to my ......"

He took out a list of all the monks, heads, children, and so on in the temple, totaling 230.

Then ask Tang Xuanzang to sit high, Sun Wukong checked from the beginning one by one, and he had to untie his clothes, and he ordered them all, but there was no robe.

He also searched through the boxes and objects that were snatched out of each house, but found nothing.

Sun Wukong got the master's eyes, and then said, "Let me ask you, what monsters do you have here?"

The monks thought for a moment and said, "If you don't ask, we can't think of it." There is a Black Wind Mountain directly southeast of here, and there is a Black Wind King in the Black Wind Cave. Master Zu often talks to it that it is a monster!"

Sun Wukong glanced at the old monk and saw the old monk nodding, so he said, "How far is that Black Wind Mountain from here?"

The abbot pointed to the mountain in the distance and said, "It's only twenty miles, and that mountain is!"

Sun Wukong smiled: "Master, don't worry, needless to say, it must have been stolen by the black bear monster." ”

Tang Xuanzang pretended to be surprised and said, "He is twenty miles away from here, how can you determine that it is him?"

Sun Wukong said: "The fire last night, the fire was soaring to the sky, don't say anything twenty miles, even if it is two hundred miles, you can see it!

Then he called all the monks over and said, "You serve my master well and look at our white horse!"

Where did the monks dare not agree, and promised again and again.

Sun Wukong said again: "Don't agree casually, when I leave, you won't come to serve." Those who look at the master should have a pleasant face, and those who raise white horses should mix the water and weeds evenly. If you dare to make a mistake, it's like this......"

As he spoke, he threw his fist at the brick wall, shattering it and knocking down seven or eight layers of the wall.

When the monks saw this, they were so frightened that their bones were soft, and they hurriedly knelt and kowtowed, and said: "Grandpa, although you can go with confidence, we will do our best to worship the master, and we will never dare to be sloppy!"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong had a somersault and went straight to Black Wind Mountain.

When Sun Wukong arrived at Black Wind Mountain, he stopped the clouds in the air, and if you look closely, it is really a good mountain.

Thousands of ravines compete for the stream, and thousands of cliffs compete for the show. Thousands of birds chirp, flowers and trees are fragrant. The white cranes by the stream drink the spring water, and the wild apes in the forest run wildly.

Sun Wukong was watching the mountain scenery when he suddenly heard someone talking in front of the grassy slope.

He hid under the stone cliff and watched secretly.

Three demons, sitting on the ground.

At the top is a black-faced man, on the left is a Taoist, on the right is a white-clothed Xiushi, and the three demons are talking.

Sun Wukong saw the black-faced man last night, and knew that he was the apprentice that the master had prepared for him, and he was a little excited.

When I was in Huaguo Mountain, although there were so many monkeys and monkeys, it was the first time to accept apprentices.

I was a little drumming in my heart, I don't know how the master prepared, don't let the black bear monster recognize it again.

When he was thinking nonsense, Sun Wukong heard the black man laugh and said, "The day after tomorrow is my birthday, do you want to come over?"

The white-clothed Xiushi said: "I am good friends with the king every year, where is the reason not to come!"

The black-faced man said, "I got a treasure last night, called a brocade robe. Tomorrow, I will take it as my birthday, have a feast, and invite all the mountain lords to celebrate the Buddha's clothes, which is called the Buddha's clothes meeting, how about it?"

The Taoist smiled and said, "Okay, good, I'll come tomorrow to pay my respects, and then I'll come to the banquet the day after tomorrow." ”

After the Taoist and the white-clothed Xiushi left, Sun Wukong jumped out and shouted, "My good apprentice!"

The black-faced man was stunned for a moment, then bowed down in surprise and shouted, "Master!"

Sun Wukong didn't expect that the master really had such a ability, and really collected this black bear monster as his apprentice, stepped forward, helped up the black-faced man, and said, "Get up, get up!"

The black-faced man didn't get up, and cried: "Master is really ruthless! Leave me in this Black Wind Mountain for hundreds of years, if it weren't for the master's dream last night, I wouldn't have known you were coming!"

Sun Wukong suddenly realized and said with a smile: "My good apprentice, as a teacher, I was deceived by that Rulai child and pressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, so I didn't come to you." ”

"Huh?" the black-faced man looked up, shocked, "Master, you have suffered!

Sun Wukong smiled, but he didn't expect to really accept a good apprentice, and said: "You get up first, let me ask you, what did your master tell you last night?"

The black-faced man got up at this time, wiped his tears, and said: "Master said, let's pretend not to know, you knock on the door, fight with me for a few rounds and pretend to be invincible, and then go to the South China Sea to ask Guanyin Bodhisattva to come and bring me down to ......"

Speaking of this, the black-faced man began to cry again: "Master! The apprentice has not yet honored the master, and the apprentice does not want to leave!"

Sun Wukong waved his hand and said, "Your master naturally has his reasons for doing this, so you just listen to him!"

The black-faced man sighed heavily, but also accepted his fate, turned around and walked towards the cave.

Sun Wukong waited for him to leave first, then followed behind, turned the peak, walked through the steep mountains, and saw a cave in front of the steep cliff.

There are two pines and cypresses standing in front of the cave, and the peak is wrapped with biluo.

Sun Wukong walked to the door and saw two stone doors, which were closed very tightly.

There is a horizontal stone slab on the door with the words "Batu Caves of Batu Mountain" written on it.

Sun Wukong shouted: "Open the door!"

There was a little demon with a door inside, who opened the door and came out, and asked, "Who are you, dare to come to my fairy cave to call the door?"

Sun Wukong scolded: "You dead beast! You dare to call any broken place a fairy cave, you can call an immortal? Go in and report to your black man, and ask him to send out his grandfather's robe and spare your dog's life!"

said that if he pretended not to know, Sun Wukong did not know, and he was also handy when he scolded.

The little demon hurriedly ran inside and said, "My lord! The Buddha's clothes will not be done! A monk with a hairy face and a thunderous mouth came outside, and asked him to return his robe!"

When the black-faced man heard him say bad things about his master, he was about to stare at him and scold him, and then remembered that the two were now in a state where they didn't know each other, so he relieved his face and said, "Take my drape!"
