Chapter 3 Apprenticeship

The two of them were very tired, and the next day, the sun was shining before they woke up. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info yesterday evening, I didn't find it, but today, it's really a fairy treasure land.

See this treasure mountain, thousands of peaks row halberds, ten thousand open screens. The sun reflects the light and locks the green, and the rain is cold and green. Withered vines entangle old trees, and the ancient crossing realm is secluded. Strange flowers and grass, bamboo and pine. Evergreen bullying blessed land for thousands of years; Strange flowers and grass, four o'clock do not thank Sai Pengying. The cry of the bird is near, and the source is clear. The valleys are surrounded by Zhilan, and the cliffs are mossy everywhere. The ups and downs of the dragon vein are good, and there must be a master with an anonymous name.

Li Ziqiu and the stone monkey were amazed, and walked all the way up along the stone road, with good scenery all the way, thousands of old cypresses, and ten thousand festivals to repair the fence. Thousands of old cypresses, with rain in the middle of the sky; Ten thousand festivals are repaired, and the smoke is pale.

Wait to climb to the top of the mountain, see a view in the distance, set up a stone tablet at the head of the cliff, about three zhang more than high, eight feet more than wide, there is a line of ten big characters, it is "Lingtai square inch mountain, oblique moon three-star hole", the view door is closed.

Strange flowers outside the door, the grass by the bridge is fragrant. The stone cliff is abrupt and mossy, and the hanging wall is high and green and long. When I hear the cranes, I see the phoenix soaring. When the crane chirps, the sound vibrates Jiugao Xiao Hanyuan; The phoenix soars, and the feathers are colorful and cloudy. The white deer of the ape is hidden, and the golden lion and jade elephant are hidden. Take a closer look at the blessed land, what a paradise!

The stone monkey exclaimed, "What a blessed land, that woodcutter really didn't lie to me!" Li Ziqiu was also amazed, and when he was about to step forward and knock on the door, the stone monkey became timid, "You first!" After speaking, he jumped to the side, climbed up a big tree, sat on it, picked fruits and ate them, and waited for Li Ziqiu to knock on the door.

Li Ziqiu tightened the flower pot behind his back, tidied up his clothes, and stepped forward to knock on the door! The door opened a crack, and a Taoist boy stretched out his head, looking at the same age as Li Ziqiu, his face was like Fu Fan, his head was combed with two claws, and his hair was floating behind his head, and he glanced at Li Ziqiu, "You knocked on the door just now?" "Exactly, may I ask the little fairy, this is a three-star cave? ”。

Seeing that Li Ziqiu looked like Sven and spoke politely, Dao Tong opened the door wider, "What's the matter with you?" "I'm here to learn from the teacher, and I hope the little fairy will report it!" Li Ziqiu bowed to Dao Tong. Dao Tong looked left and right, "Why don't you see monkeys!" He muttered a sentence and said to Li Ziqiu: "Come in", Li Ziqiu was about to say that there is one more person, oh, there is also a monkey! Dao Tong had already slammed the door shut.

Dao Tong took Li Ziqiu to walk inside, and said as he walked: "Like you, who come to learn art, the master usually asks him to do some miscellaneous work in the Taoist temple after meeting him. Would you like to? Li Ziqiu hurriedly said: "I am willing!" ”。

"Okay, today the master has something to order, the brothers are preparing, there is no time to see you, Yaopu is still one less person to serve, I see that you are carrying flowers and plants, you must know something, you will help Xinyue Fox take care of the flower garden and Yaopu first", Dao Tong took Li Ziqiu through the side of the front hall and came to the back side hall.

"Heart Moon Fox! Where are you? Dao Tong shouted loudly, "Senior Brother Guangyunzi, what are you looking for me?" "A beautiful girl came out of the moon gate on the courtyard wall with a flower hoe in her hand." Xinyue Fox, this is just here to learn art, temporarily help you manage the garden Yaopu, you settle him first, I still have something to do, go first" After Guangyunzi finished ordering, he turned around and went back to the front hall.

"Send Senior Brother!" The girl bowed and saluted behind the Dao Tong, and Li Ziqiu hurriedly followed. Seeing Guangyunzi walking away, the girl circled around Li Ziqiu, "What's your name?" Where did it come from? , what spells will they be? Do you know what kind of place this is? A series of questions erupted from the ruddy little mouth, just now the charming girl with eyes like peach blossoms and eyebrows like distant dais, in an instant, apricot eyes were threatening, staring at Li Ziqiu, and her face changed!

"In the next, I..."Li Ziqiu is a little stuck, "My name is Li Ziqiu, a person from Lijiazhuang in Xiniu Hezhou, I came here to seek immortals and learn the Tao, I heard that this is Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, the three-star cave of the oblique moon, the old immortals here, the magic power is vast, the magic power is boundless, I don't know the fairy sister, how to call it?" Li Ziqiu stammered and finally finished speaking.

"See you're still honest, let's go, follow me!" The girl didn't answer Li Ziqiu's question, and took Li Ziqiu through the moon gate and came to the flower garden, "The left is the garden, and the right is Yaopu, you can live here, just to take care of the flowers and plants!" The girl said, pointing to a nearby hut. Thank you, sister! Li Ziqiu bent down again.

"Don't call me senior sister, I'm not a formal disciple yet, you're just a handyman, you still call me sister, my name is Xinyue Fox, I only cultivated into a human form after listening to the preaching of Bodhi Ancestor in Fangcun Mountain, but unfortunately I haven't become an official disciple until now!" The girl didn't look very happy. Li Ziqiu carefully looked for the topic: "There is a stone monkey, come with me, and he also asks for immortals, and now he is still outside the door, seeing that he is still a monkey, far less powerful than my sister, my sister doesn't say it, I don't know if my sister is cultivating the Tao."

"What do you say? The stone monkeys are coming? "Xinyue Fox is not interested in Li Ziqiu's sycophant, but he cares about the stone monkey very much." Yes, it's still outside the door" Li Ziqiu was surprised, she seemed to know the stone monkey, "Sister also knows the stone monkey?" "What do you know, today the ancestor gathered his disciples, just for this stone monkey, didn't you see that Senior Brother Guangyunzi left in a hurry just now" Xinyue Fox lowered his head and thought about something.

"Let's go! , let's also take a look, what is this stone monkey capable of? "Xinyue Fox, let Li Ziqiu put things down. Carry him towards the front hall. Xinyue Fox told Li Ziqiu that a few days ago I heard a few senior brothers say that the ancestor of the senior brother is the Buddha of the West Heaven Dari Rulai Buddha asked the ancestor to accept an apprentice, it is this stone monkey, this stone monkey is a piece of spirit stone left by Nuwa Niangniang to make up the sky, nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, a spirit fetus conceived, born from the creation of heaven and earth, the Buddha intends to be included in the door as a protector, and there is some cause and effect in the middle, so he first entrusts the ancestor to teach him skills.

Li Ziqiu followed Xinyue Fox through the layers of Qionglou, came to the back of the Yaotai in the front hall, hid behind the pillar and watched forward, and saw that the Bodhi Patriarch was sitting on the platform, and there were thirty little immortals standing under the stage on both sides, and Xinyue Fox pointed to the standing little immortals and said: "See, those people are the official disciples of the ancestor, and the others are all miscellaneous servants, you can just listen to the ancestor."

Li Ziqiu didn't dare to make a sound, the stone monkey who came with Li Ziqiu was summoned by the ancestor, and the patriarch said: "Who are you?" Li Ziqiu glanced at the Xinyue Fox, "Didn't the ancestor know the origin of the stone monkey?" Xinyue Fox glanced at Li Ziqiu: "What do you know!" Although it was introduced by the Buddha, you can't let him know the truth, you must not leak it out in the future, can you remember? ”。 Although Li Ziqiu had doubts, he looked at Xinyue Fox staring at him with apricot eyes, and hurriedly said: "Remember, remember, never say anything about it!" ”

Li Ziqiu and Xinyue Fox hid behind the pillar to see how the ancestor subdued the stone monkey. The patriarch said: "Even if it comes gradually. What's your last name? The stone monkey arrived: "I have no sex, if people scold me, I won't be annoyed, if they hit me, I won't be angry, just a courtesy, I'm sexless." The patriarch said: "It's not the sex of the sex, what are the original surnames of your parents?" The stone monkey said: "I also have no parents!" ”。

The patriarch said: "That is, there are no parents, and you want to be born on a tree?" The stone monkey said: "Although I am not born of a tree, but it is grown in a stone, I only remember that there is a fairy stone on Huaguo Mountain, and the stone is broken in the year, and I will be born." ”。 When the patriarch heard this, he said, "This kind of saying is born to grow, you get up and take a walk, I'll see!" ”。 The stone monkey jumped up and walked obediently twice.

Li Ziqiu looked at it and wanted to laugh, this stone monkey walked up, but it was much uglier than when he was with him, it must have been deliberate. I felt a pain in my ribs and almost screamed. Turning his head to look, Xinyue Fox clenched his silver teeth, his expression was distorted, and he said hatefully: "This monkey is not human, it is not strange, but it is from a good background, and he was caught by the Buddha, which really me off."

Li Ziqiu didn't dare to answer, turned his head and continued to watch the ancestor accept apprentices. The patriarch gave the stone monkey the surname Sun, and the stone monkey rejoiced: "Good! Good! Good! Today, Fang knows the surname, and the master is merciful, since he has a surname, he begs for a name, but it is easy to call. The patriarch said: "There are twelve characters in my door, and I am assigned to name you as the tenth generation of disciples." The stone monkey said: "Which twelve words? ”。 The patriarch said: "It is the twelve characters of Guang, Da, Zhi, Hui, Zhen, Ru, Xing, Hai, Ying, Wu, Yuan, and Jue." Lined up to you, just understand the word. Would it be good to call you Monkey King? ”。 Stone Monkey: "Good! Good! Good! From now on, it will be called Monkey King! ”。

Seeing this, Xinyue Fox pulled Li Ziqiu: "Let's go, it's really a good fate, as soon as I came, I was accepted as a disciple by the patriarch!" The two returned to the flower garden, "For the sake of the auditors at the same time, I won't embarrass you, you go clean up, I'll go and water Yaopu!" Xinyue Fox seemed to have some sympathy for Li Ziqiu.

"Sister Yue, can I also plant this flower in the flower garden?" asked Li Ziqiu. Xinyue Fox looked at the green and clear flowers and plants brought by Li Ziqiu, "What kind of flowers and plants are you?" ”。“ I don't know it, it came out spontaneously from under the withered old tree in my yard, and I have taken care of it since I was a child, and I can't bear to abandon it, so I always take it with me," Li Ziqiu said about the origin of the flowers and plants. "In that case, you can plant it in front of the door, the flower garden here is full of spiritual energy, maybe there will be some creation in the future!" After Xinyue Fox finished speaking, he left with the bucket.

Li Ziqiu found a flower hoe from the room, planted his own flowers and plants, cultivated the soil, and squatted down to look at the green branches and leaves: "Since you have settled here, you can see that the stone monkeys have names, and I should also give you a name" Li Ziqiu groaned for a while, and said to the flowers and plants: "I was able to learn art here because I was one less person to take care of Yaopu, so I will call you, 'less medicine'." This flower and plant has been lush since birth, and it looks more spiritual than other flowers and plants, but there is nothing special about it. After Li Ziqiu named him, he suddenly felt different, and Li Ziqiu felt that 'less medicine' looked at himself differently.
