Gongsun Chu remembered that when he said goodbye to the emperor and went out on the expedition, under the imperial city on horseback, in the quiet night sky, the moonlight as white as jade, sprinkled on the monarch's palace like the Milky Way, and Guanyin came to the night sky in person to practice for Gongsun Gongzi.

"Have you ever heard the story of Master Xuanzang? At that time, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty entrusted Tang Sanzang to go to the Leiyin Temple in the West to seek the original Sanskrit scriptures of Buddhist scriptures, and to ask questions about the common Buddhism. Guanyin Bodhisattva held an amber bottle in his hand, standing in the dazzling white light of the sky, like a magnificent Buddha, asking Gongsun Chu.

Gongsun Chu knelt on his knees, put his head on the ground, and replied reverently: "Back to Guanyin, Master Sanzang traveled to Tianzhu to obtain the Western Scriptures, went through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, countless hardships, and perseverance, everyone knows. ”

Guanyin Niangniang smiled in the white light, "Today, I have to follow the example of Xuanzang in person." The Silk Road connects the Eastern and Western worlds and is the corridor of the world's Shenzhou. The ancients used to transport silk to open the passage between the two worlds, and it was not only the determination to send silk and trade, but also to obtain more than just diplomatic relations and goods. The real meaning lies in the communication between culture and heart, and the exchange and progress of the world.

The reincarnation of history, the ancient road post station remains the same, what changes is the people's hearts, the determination to seek progress and communication. Every time I embark on this trip in search of a true person, I am puzzled and can't help but ask myself: the corridor connecting the world is there, why do I have to find a real person to guide the way? After I looked for Zhang Qian, Ban Chao and Xuanzang, I knew the answer to history. It is the world that has closed its door, and those who take that step are not leading their own world, but welcoming the feelings of the whole world.

The guide needs to bring the same feelings to the world, afraid of the unknown, afraid of being baptized and eroded by culture, and will only sit in the well and watch the sky, cocooning himself. The true meaning of the guide is not to lead everyone to find the way to the truth, but to open their doors to the world with courage. ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Chu immediately bowed three times to Guanyin Bodhisattva, "The disciple must keep it in mind and always remember the Bodhisattva's teachings!"

Gongsun Chu thought of this, and felt that he was fortunate to be appreciated by Mingjun, to be supported by national strength, to be taught by the Bodhisattva, and to coincide with the opening of the cultural door of various countries and regions, and the golden age that has not been encountered for hundreds of years, all countries and states have the feelings of accepting the world, and now the problem is not in the mentality of each country itself, but the preservation of the cultural post road, and the burden of shouldering itself.

The power of the elves and horse gangsters is eroding this route, and the situation changes from year to year, destroying and hindering the determination of the world to communicate. And feeling that his own learning and art are not refined, and the Taoist mana is not enough to deal with the goblins who are profound, Guanyin Bodhisattva did not ask for some Buddhist spells, magic weapons or tricks when he visited, everything depends on his own fate and creation, and he is really empty-hearted.

On the way back from the grassland tribal country, I saw the magnificent migration of the desert dragon, the desert desertification, the diversion of the river, the wind and sand, and the people of the village were struggling. On this day, it was the time to feel it, and I passed through the market of Yangguan in the desert. This Yangguan is the pass that the southern road of the Silk Road must pass through, and the Yumen Pass is the gateway of the Western Regions traffic, and people from all walks of life gather here. The market was full of shouts and shouts, and the streets were full of people coming and going.

Suddenly, a troop of Buyi troops came up in the bazaar, and they stopped on horseback at the most lively street and set up nine tables. Nine tables were arranged in a row, and a large iron basin was placed on each table, covered with a red cloth. The leader of the soldiers shouted in the common language of the tribe, "The army recruits, and the heroes who are willing to test their courage are invited to come here and line up." After taking off his shoes, barefoot, he can pass the nine basins on the platform, do not jump, do not fly, do not borrow tools, and dare to step on the basin with one foot, after passing the nine iron basins, the nine gold bars on the table are his, and he can also enter our military camp as a general. ”

Many tribal warriors were already eager to see the gold bars on the table and went over to line up. The first warrior to come to power was from the Qiang Gordan tribe, this tribe can fight well and often produces heroes on horseback, so he came to try his head first.

The onlookers applauded him, and the two rows of soldiers at the table opened the red cloth of the first basin for him. There are many scorpions and centipedes in the basin, as well as other poisonous insects such as spiders, crawling in the smooth basin.

Looking at this formation, half of the people in the queue behind them have dispersed, and money is still more important than life. Being bitten by these poisonous insects, if you don't die, you will lose half of your legs, and you can't do it. But the warrior did not speak, took off his boots, and stepped down with his bare feet, trampling the poisonous insects under his feet until they squirted black juice.

After the first iron basin, the audience applauded him. Gongsun Chu also stood in the crowd of onlookers and applauded him. The soldiers lifted the red cloth of the second iron basin, and inside were several broken blades, fixed vertically inside, with a bright edge.

Seeing this second basin, the people in the queue behind them had already dispersed in a hurry and walked away scolding. I didn't understand the words of the tribe, but Gongsun Chu still understood a few words that I often heard: "It's pure nothing to make us happy!"

At this time, the warrior of the Qiang tribe also began to sweat on his forehead, and as long as he was brave in the first level, he was still sure to step over. The second level can't be avoided, as long as you step on it, the foot board will bloom, and if you don't hurt the hamstrings, you will cripple a leg. But people are already on stage, with so many pairs of eyes, some things can only be stubbornly pointed out sometimes.

So barefoot, he stepped in again. There was a burst of surprise, followed by applause from the crowd of onlookers. The guy passed again, only this time the soles of his feet were bloody, and it was difficult to walk. The head of the soldier commander also personally applauded his courage. The soldiers on either side opened a third basin for him.

The third basin didn't open, but when I opened it, I saw that there was an underage alligator, lying quietly in the basin with my eyes open. Everyone exclaimed, and some of the children immediately began to cry in fright, trembling with fear. The young man of the Qiang tribe was also shocked, what is this done by people, the soles of his feet have been cut open to the flesh, and there is a smell of blood, as long as he enters the basin, the little crocodile will definitely attack.

This time he didn't do it again, bandaged his wounds, put on his boots and jumped off the stage. The crowd of onlookers did not disperse immediately, and everyone waited to see if there were any warriors standing on the stage. After waiting for a while, no one went up, everyone went around the stage, and some onlookers from the tribal friends had already moved stools and chairs from the nearby market, eating grapes while watching the excitement. The people of the Western Regions love to eat grapes very much.

When Gongsun Chu saw this, he really wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this team of soldiers, and what kind of reputation the leader of the leader was going to do. If no one goes up after a while, you can only go up and break through these nine levels to test the gallpot.

Just as he was hesitating, the crowd automatically parted an intersection, and a tall and burly strong man walked in from the middle. The face was resolute and delicate, the thick eyebrows were obliquely erected, and the eyes were like stars, and at first glance they were from Middle-earth, not from the tribesmen. But walking among the brave tribal crowd, he still stands out from the crowd, and his aura is extraordinary, so not mighty.

He came to the side of the platform, first made a long grassland salute with the soldiers of the Buyi tribe, and then said in a fluent tribal language: "Hello warriors of Ankedan, and then go down to Shangguan Bai, a wanderer from Dunhuang, a ronin from Mogao Grottoes." Passing through here, the desert traveled, encountered the wind and sand, the inventory was not enough, and I asked for the courage to come to the stage to try. If you pass the test, don't ask for more money, just a little supply, and continue on the road. I hope that the soldiers of the tribe will give you another chance. After speaking, he covered his left chest with his right hand and bowed like a non-commissioned officer.

As soon as the words were finished, the crowd exploded like a pot and began to talk about it noisily. "Oh, he's Shangguan Bai, the Mobei Ranger, no wonder he's so tall!" "Yes, looking at his dragon print cloak, I know that this person must be the Desert Ranger." "Ah, what a lot of guts, he should have seen all the things in these basins just now! Can he break through these damn things?" "Hey, you don't know! How many jackals, tigers and leopards he has seen in the desert, how many demons and monsters he has fought against, can these little tricks be difficult to get him?"

Everyone, you and I are talking about it one by one. Shangguan Bai ignored it and got on the stage. The soldier captain smiled at him and saluted him back to the prairie and motioned for please. So Shangguan Bai took off his boots and stepped into the first basin barefoot. The poisonous insects in the basin were forced away by the momentum, and they automatically gave up a vacant space for Shangguan Bai to settle down. Shangguan Bai nodded at the insects in the basin and gave the Buddhist rites of the disciples of the Shi family.

When he came to the second basin, on the edge of the sharp knife, Shangguan Bai stepped over like a little water, and did not hurt half an inch of skin. Continuing to the third basin, the little crocodile was still lying quietly in the basin. Shangguan Bai first performed the Shifomen etiquette, and then stepped on it with one foot, the little crocodile didn't move at first, and after Shangguan Bai's feet entered, the little crocodile waved his tail, turned around and walked away. The audience was in an uproar.

When they came to the fourth basin, the soldier lifted the red cloth, and inside was a lying anaconda. The stout body is larger than that of an adult python, and it has already occupied the entire large iron basin, and there is nowhere to put its feet. The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar again, and some shook their heads. Shangguan's white face did not change color, it was still the etiquette of Shi Buddhism, and he stepped on the back of the anaconda with one foot. I saw the anaconda curled up lazily, and then slowly opened the circle of his body, and gave up the center part for Shangguan Bai to put his feet. Shangguan Bai stepped in and passed another level.

At this time, the onlookers were stunned, and they were amazed and impressed by Shangguan Bai's ability. Gongsun Chu took the lead in applauding, and the crowd did not hesitate to applaud. I saw Shangguan Bai continue to advance to the sixth basin, and in the basin were three rows of flywheels that rotated rapidly. The blade of the flywheel was extremely thin, and the soldier threw the red cloth into the basin, which was instantly twisted to pieces, and the rags flew all over the sky.

The crowd of onlookers were dumbfounded when they saw this, this was about to cut their legs! I saw that the three rows of flywheels were so closely arranged that they couldn't get their feet down, only the gap between the rows, and they could barely stand on tiptoe and stick their toes into it. In this way, if you are not careful, your body will lose your balance, and your whole leg will be twisted in.

Shangguan Bai did not give Buddha salutes here, and there was no surprise between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be still calm in his heart. I saw that he closed his eyes, judged the position of the gap by his voice alone, stuck his toes in, stood with his feet steady, and walked out of the gap. Seeing this, even the soldier commander began to applaud him.

The seventh pot was a pot of boiling butter, and a soldier carried the tail of a giant rat in one hand, put the live mouse into the oil pot, and then brought it out only the tail, and the flesh and bones were instantly gone. The crowd began to scream, and some onlookers began to vomit nearby.

Shangguan Bai fell into deep thought this time, and Gongsun Chu also fell into deep thought. Gongsun Chu was thinking that if it was him, if he didn't use spells in this level, he would inevitably hurt his body. But looking at the test of the soldier commander, it should not be recommended that the hero who tries his courage use spells, otherwise he may not end up seeing the test that the soldier commander really wants to give. Shangguan Bai was thinking about the same problem as him. But after a while, Shangguan Bai had a plan.

I saw Shangguan Bai pull down his robe and untie the dragon cloak. The robe was wrapped around one of his legs, and the cloak was directly over the boiling oil pot. He stepped in with one leg, and his entire calf was submerged in the boiling oil pot.

Everyone was surprised, but soon Shangguan Bai stepped out, his legs intact, and when he untied his robe, his calves were only slightly red. Shangguan Bai pulled out the dragon cloak from the oil pot, and suddenly all the oil and water slipped off, only to see that the cloak was not wet at all, and the leather-textured cloak was steaming hot on one side, but the other side was still clean and tidy. Shangguan Bai continued to drape the cloak over his shoulders. The soldier next to him nodded with a straight smile.

Seeing this, Gongsun Chu couldn't help but admire, and gave Shangguan Bai a thumbs up, and Shangguan Bai also nodded at him with a smile. Both are Middle-earth people, and they are guests in a foreign land, and the faces of the two make each other feel more cordial.

In the eighth basin, people thought it would be a more dangerous mechanism than the oil pot, but this time everyone guessed wrong. In the eighth basin was a basin of clear water, and there was nothing but water. Shangguan Bai looked at the reflection in the water, and he was so confused, lost, not firm, so vicissitudes and immature.

This level really stumped Shangguan Bai, and the onlookers were puzzled. The dangers of so many levels in front of him have come over, why is it that in the face of a basin of clear water, the ranger fell into contemplation. When Gongsun Chu saw this scene, he couldn't help but fall into contemplation, which was a truly thought-provoking level. The soldier commander also began to look at Shangguan Bai's expression with a serious face, expecting him to continue to make any moves.

After a long time, Shangguan Bai didn't take that step. For him, this step is really difficult. Gongsun Chu understood very well that although he didn't know Shangguan Bai, at this moment, he seemed to immediately understand Shangguan Bai. He knew that the most difficult step to break through himself was to make a very strong decision in his heart.

When Shangguan Bai came to this eighth basin, he seemed to have a rough idea of what this group of soldiers was going to test himself. Only by breaking through oneself can one have the determination to say goodbye to past failures, otherwise courage alone is not enough to support one's decision. Shangguan Bai remembered the truth and mission he had been searching for all these years of walking alone in the desert. How many times I wanted to give up, how many times I fell into danger, how many times I thought about going back to survive in the situation of water and food cuts, but in the end I persevered and became a tourist who can travel through the desert alone.

The world he saw was braver and more open than anyone living in this desert. Therefore, Gongsun Chu also instantly understood the meaning of the name "Mobei Ranger", which is really the weight of every word. Shangguan Bai suddenly opened his eyes, as if he had figured out something, his eyes looked ahead, and his still resolute face was blazing eyes. He no longer hesitated, and quickly stepped into the water.

The rippling surface of the water, imprinting on his gradually blurred face, gradually became clear again. Shangguan Bai took a deep breath and stepped out. The soldier commander smiled again, and Gongsun Chu also loosened his frowning brow. The soldier next to him opened the last basin for Shangguan Bai, and inside was a bronze mirror.

Once again, the crowd of onlookers was filled with doubts. If there are still people who can understand the meaning of the basin of clear water just now, then what is this bronze mirror being interpreted now? Shangguan Bai looked at this bronze mirror and saw his true figure, without any shadow of anyone. Through this bronze mirror, the soldier commander saw not Shangguan Bai himself, but the dragon descending Arhat deity of the Great Lei Yin Temple. Gongsun Chu looked at this bronze mirror, and it was not Shangguan Bai inside, what Gongsun Chu saw was the desert earth dragon churning in the yellow sand in the mirror, guiding the underground dark river.

Shangguan Bai took another deep breath, bowed three times with his back to the sky, and then knelt on the bronze mirror with both knees, and knelt over step by step.
