Chapter 96 The Three Saints Test the Mortal Heart and Drive the Monkey King

Then the group met the Yellow Wind Monster Lingji Bodhisattva was waiting for Sun Wukong to ask for help in the dojo, never thought that Sun Wukong knocked it down, but directly killed the Yellow Wind Monster, and the Yellow Wind Monster entered the underworld without any experience, and then several people continued to move forward, and when Lingji Bodhisattva calculated that the Yellow Wind Monster was dead, several people arrived at the quicksand river.

Here received the golden-bodied Arhat, and gave the Dharma name Sha Wujing, so far the group of four people is finally complete.

On this day, everyone walked through the pine forest, but saw a house in front of them, with a magnificent hall, obviously a large family. Xuanzang was overjoyed when he saw it, and said, "Apprentices, there is a place to live tonight." His apprentice's name is Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, Sun Wukong is not his apprentice, at most he is a fellow traveler.

Sun Wukong raised his eyes and saw that the fairy aura was swirling here, and he was determined to be an extraordinary residence, pursed his lips, and said secretly: "It's also boring." But he said, "Finally, you don't have to sleep in the open, Elder Tang, I'll leave quickly." ”

Xuanzang nodded imperceptibly, and rode to the house. When I got to the door, I just knocked on the door a few times, and then I asked, "You are also here to spend the night?"

Xuanzang turned around, but saw a man and a woman strolling over, the man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, Sun Wukong looked at the two people in front of him with some doubts, just because he couldn't see the heels of the two, that is, he could see them in the room, but these two people couldn't see it at all, they were just ordinary mortals.

Xuanzang smiled slightly, folded his hands and said, "Exactly." I don't know who the two are?"

Lin Xinggong arched his hand and said: "My husband and wife went out to play, and they never wanted to get lost, but they saw the smoke rising from a distance, and someone must have come to ask for a stay." ”

Xuanzang was about to say something, when the door suddenly opened, and a woman walked out of it, saying, "Who is knocking on the door?" ”

Xuanzang hurriedly replied: "Female donor, the poor monk is Tang Xuanzang, a monk sent by the Tang Dynasty to the West to seek the true scriptures, these two are my apprentices, and the other one is ordered to protect the poor monk, I will wait to pass by the treasure land to borrow it for one night." ”

Lin Xing chuckled, pointed at Xuanzang and said, "My name is Zichen, this is my wife Huang'er, we are with the elders, and we also want to borrow it for one night." ”

This old woman was transformed by Guanyin, frowned, looked at Lin Xing and the others, and had to say, "Since this is the case, then come in." ”

They entered the gate, crossed the corridor, and rested and drank tea in the main hall.

Xuanzang asked, "What is the name of the place where the female benefactor is name?" The old woman smiled, shook the fan in her hand and said, "This is the Heavenly Holy Mountain." The little woman's maiden name is Jia, and her husband's surname is Mo. The husband's family died early, leaving only two daughters. Although there are thousands of family properties, but no one inherits the heir, and now I want to find a son-in-law, so as to provide for the old and send the old to the end. ”

When Xuanzang heard this, he had to be silent, neither admitting nor refuting.

Lin Xing interjected at this time: "What the old lady said is reasonable, I think this Elder Tang is white and tender, if he is recruited as a husband, he will not lose your daughter." ”

The old woman glanced at Lin Xing and said, "This little brother is right, I don't know what the elder thinks?" Xuanzang saw that he could burn the fire on himself without saying a word, and couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Lin Xing, and hurriedly said: "The poor monk really learns the scriptures, how can he be a son-in-law here." For those of us who are monks, external things are not disturbed, and there is yin and yang inside. There was once a saying: It is better to be greedy for blood and food at home, and to fall into stinky skin when you are old. ”

The old woman nodded secretly, and said angrily: "Good monk, I am sincere, but you hurt me with words today." You just can't do it, and neither can these apprentices under you?"

Xuanzang was submissive and didn't dare to speak, so Nuwa interjected at the right time: "What the old lady said is true, I think this one is good, it's just a little shorter, but it's harmless." Nuwa pointed to the Monkey King.

The corners of Sun Wukong's mouth twitched when he heard this, at this time he was already sure that these two people were not mortals, and they were also a master who didn't think much of a big deal to watch the excitement. Sun Wukong just wanted to refuse, his eyes were eyeballed, and he smiled: "It's okay for me, anyway, I haven't been ordained, but I don't like people who are much older than me, I think it's better for Elder Pig to stay." ”

The Bodhisattvas who were eavesdropping in the back didn't get angry when they heard it, and their incarnation couldn't hide it from Sun Wukong, and he said that he was clearly watching their jokes. The old woman forced a smile and said, "The little brother's face is very different, and the little daughter is afraid of it, so she can't kiss her." ”

Sun Wukong heard the old woman's ridicule, but he didn't say anything, and Zhu Bajie listened to Sun Wukong's words, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Brother Monkey, how can I marry if I have entered the Buddhist sect, I think let Senior Brother Sha stay." ”

When the innocent Senior Brother Sha heard this, he hurriedly said: "I am on the orders of Master Guanyin, and I protect my master to go west to learn scriptures, how can I stay here in vain." ”

The old woman slapped the table and said angrily, "It's the old woman who is abrupt." Then he got up directly, went back to the back room, closed the door, and no one came out again, and there was no tea or dinner.

Lin Xing sighed and said, "Look at it, what should I do now that I have no water and no food?" Sun Wukong smiled when he heard this: "This donor said that he laughed, he traveled leisurely without water and food, and he was still afraid of starvation with the ability of the donor?"

Lin Xing smiled: "You monkey is a bit interesting, but you look ugly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a daughter-in-law in the future." Bajie laughed when he heard this, caught a glimpse of Sun Wukong's murderous gaze, and quickly stopped laughing, but still said with a mouthful: "Brother Monkey has countless monkeys and monkey grandchildren after returning to the mountain, and I'm afraid I won't find my daughter-in-law?"

The rest of the people laughed and laughed when they heard it, but Wukong was angry and ran out. Seeing that Sun Wukong ran away, the hall was silent, Lin Xing got up and said, "Since there is no tea and dinner, I will go out for a stroll first." Then he picked up Nuwa and walked out, leaving only the embarrassed master and apprentice.

Sun Wukong was sitting by a stream at this time, constantly throwing stones into it, venting the anger in his heart, Lin Xing couldn't help laughing when he saw this, and said, "Little monkey, what are you doing?"

Sun Wukong heard Lin Xing's voice and said, "What are you doing here?" "Of course, I'm afraid that you will do something stupid, enlighten and enlighten you." Lin Xing handed Sun Wukong a big peach.

Sun Wukong took it, plucked the peach hair, and bit it down, and after a bite, Sun Wukong felt calm, stable, and had other wonderful uses, so it was not enough for outsiders.

Lin Xing didn't speak, and Nuwa spoke: "Wukong, before this amount of tribulation has passed, you will not be able to transform into shape, and after the same amount of tribulation, you can transform at will, unrestrained." ”

Hearing this, Sun Wukong suddenly looked up at Nuwa, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Wukong thanked Nuwa Niangniang for her guidance." ”

Lin Xing asked with some curiosity: "How do you know that he is Nuwa?" Sun Wukong wanted to be like him, but because Lin Xing's seniority was too high, he had to give up and said, "Guess." ”

Lin Xing wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Nuwa and said, "You can go back, and after this catastrophe, this seat will give you a chance." ”

After Sun Wukong thanked him respectfully, he drove back to his original place. Lin Xing Nuwa also rode the clouds to wander around at will, when they were in retreat or cultivation before, they couldn't feel the flow of time, but now they are only a few hundred years in the world, and they are used to seeing the bits and pieces of the world, but they feel that the time is very long.

However, Lin Xing and Nuwa glanced at each other and smiled, it would be better to be longer, so that they could be together for a longer time, watch the ups and downs of the world, and taste the vicissitudes of life.

Speaking back to Xuanzang, because he didn't listen to the old woman's words, he was hungry all night, and woke up the next day to find that the house had disappeared, Xuanzang was shocked, he only thought that he had met a goblin, and he never thought of descending a piece of Buddha from the sky. ”

Then everyone packed their bags and hurried away. On this day, before coming to Skull Mountain, Sun Wukong went out to make a fate, in fact, except for Xuanzang, the rest did not need to eat, so Sun Wukong was not in a hurry, and because of the rapid technique of cloud escape, he also begged for a glass of wine to eat, and then returned slowly.

Not to mention Sun Wukong, but said that Xuanzang and others were waiting for fasting, only to see a beautiful village girl come forward, holding a basket in her hand, walked quickly to Xuanzang, and said, "The little woman is polite." ”

Xuanzang said: "The female donor is polite, where is the female donor going?" The village girl said: "I was about to send food to my father and mother who went to the ground, and the elder has not eaten, so these steamed buns will be given to the elder." The village girl said, took out a few steamed buns from the basket, and wanted to hand them to Xuanzang.

Zhu Bajie smiled coldly when he saw it, and Sha Wujing couldn't find the heel of the white bone spirit at all, Xuanzang glanced at it, although he was a little puzzled, but when he saw the genuine steamed bun, he still said: "Thank you so much." ”

The white bones were carefully happy, just about to catch Xuanzang and slip away, but he never thought that an iron rod would be smashed on the head, and suddenly scattered the three souls and seven spirits, but the white bone essence had a method of autopsy, and the three souls quietly escaped far away, Sun Wukong was born with divine eyes, how could he not find it, a mouthful of samadhi true fire spit out, and burned the white bone essence completely dissipated and turned into nothing.

It's just that the village girl is a genuine body, Xuanzang can't see the soul with the naked eye, he just thinks that Sun Wukong is bold and reckless, and he actually kills innocents indiscriminately, so he stood up tremblingly and said, "You monkey, how dare you hurt yourself." ”

Sun Wukong said disdainfully: "If I don't kill him, you will be the one who dies." Zhu Bajie also helped and said, "Master, I don't think Brother Monkey will be wrong." Sha Wujing also nodded, pointing to the food that had turned into a frog and toad in the basket and said, "Master, I am afraid that it was a trick to blind the master just now." ”

Xuanzang's face was flushed, and he said coldly: "I don't know whose eyes are blocked, how can my Buddhism have such a disciple." ”

Sun Wukong was unhappy and said: "Who is your Buddhist disciple, I am the sect of Xuanmen, who cares about your Buddhism." Zhu Bajie was also a little displeased, but he didn't show it on his face, just because this tight hoop was really painful.

Xuanzang choked, only to remember that this Monkey King was not his apprentice, and he was a little stunned, but at this time, if he was soft, wouldn't he lose his face, so he had to insist: "Since this is the case, where do you come from, where do you go back, the poor monk doesn't need you to protect you." ”

Sun Wukong snorted coldly when he heard it, and said: "Okay, good, you are mortal, drive away the old grandson, don't come to me in the future." "Drive the clouds directly away, and no longer care about the three people on the ground.

Zhu Bajie glanced at the direction in which Sun Wukong left, smiled, and said in his heart: "Brother Monkey will leave angrily this time, my Xuanmen should stop you, and see how you go west." ”
