Listening to Manjushri's explanation, Sun Wukong still refused to be kind, and after some difficulty, he knew that the green-haired lion was actually a gelding, and he couldn't help but be a little speechless while embarrassed.

When Manjushri left with the green-haired lion, the four of Sun Wukong's master and apprentice were warmly welcomed by the king of the black chicken country. Before leaving, he was sent by the king himself for more than ten miles before turning back.

"Hey! What a good king! That bodhisattva is so stingy! Let the family go to the west to prove the golden body of the Arhat early, can they make so many things? When the king returned, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but say.

Sun Wukong was not angry and said: "Idiot, are you still thinking about the vegetarian banquet of other kings?" ”

Tang Seng smiled lightly: "Disciples! This is my Buddhism, and naturally there are many tests. If it is difficult to endure even a few tests, how can you become an immortal saint? His Majesty, the king of the black chicken country, has gained a lot after this catastrophe! ”

"Master is right, we go all the way west, isn't it also grinding?" Sha Seng said.

Tang Seng nodded happily and smiled: "Wujing is right!" ”

Sun Wukong pouted and shook his head and said: "Hehe, my old grandson, the king of the black chicken country, I am afraid that there will be some taboos against Buddhism in the future." ”

"Wukong, what do you say?" Tang Seng frowned slightly, slightly puzzled.

Zhu Bajie said: "Then you don't need to say!" The king of the black chicken country is just a mortal, and the Bodhisattva is so calculating with him. How could he not have reverence and scruples? Once this is the case, where is there any sincere heart for the Buddha? ”

"This?" Tang Seng was stunned when he heard this, shook his head and sighed lightly without saying much.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand: "Okay, okay!" Leave it alone with the black chicken king. Let's go ours. Don't delay the trip, it's good to go to the west as much as possible. ”

And sent away the Tang monk and apprentice, and returned to the king of the royal capital. It ushered in two more guests, an old man and a young one.

In the palace, seeing the sloppy old Taoist and the handsome little Taoist priest, the king of Wuji couldn't help but get up in surprise and stepped forward to salute: "Old Taoist! I haven't had time to thank you for saving my life, I thought the old Taoist was gone! ”

"Hehe, the old way goes and returns, I hope Your Majesty doesn't blame the old way for bothering!" Lao Dao said with a smile.

"Where, where! I'm looking forward to the Taoist's coming! The black chicken king, who was laughing, hurriedly said, "Come." Chief, please take a seat! ”

Lao Dao was not polite, and went directly to the side to sit down with the black chicken king and sip tea.

Make small talk. The King of the Black Rooster couldn't help but ask curiously, "Old Daoist, I don't know what advice you have here?" ”

"Hehe, Your Majesty is really a person with a wise heart!" The old Taoist who smiled didn't answer and asked, "But I don't know how His Majesty feels about this incident on the Western Buddhism?" ”

When the King of Wuji heard this, his expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and he shook his head and sighed helplessly: "Old Daoist." How can I, the Buddha, be said lightly by me? ”

These words. The bitterness and different feelings in the words are very obvious.

"Huh!" Lao Dao laughed when he heard it: "It's not that you can't say it, but you don't dare to say it, right?" Also, there is a god in this head, but the belly of this god is not very large. If you accidentally say the wrong thing, you will inadvertently offend people! The West is compassionate and rigorous, and the Buddhist precepts are even stricter! ”

Hearing what the old Taoist said, the king of black chickens could only smile embarrassedly and didn't dare to say anything.

Lao Dao turned his voice and said: "And my Dao Sect is different!" Daomen advocates freedom. And do mercy and know, and help the world. The fairy family is free. It's not like that. ”

"That Buddhism came to punish the world, and they didn't forget to use the identity of Taoism to defile the Taoist statement, which is really shameful!" The old way and the way.

King Wuji smiled embarrassedly and didn't dare to say more, but in his heart he agreed with what Lao Dao said.

Seeing this, Lao Dao smiled and said directly: "Your Majesty!" Poor Dao doesn't like to beat around the bush, so I'll tell you directly! The poor road is the free immortal of the wilderness, occasionally passing through the country of black chickens, seeing that His Majesty is very rich, so he has a heart of love. The previous Soul Rejuvenation Grass had already changed His Majesty's physical body into an innate body, which was extremely suitable for cultivation. Poor Dao intends to accept His Majesty as an apprentice, with His Majesty's qualifications, he will at least be a long-lived immortal in the future, I don't know what His Majesty will? ”

"Huh?" With his eyes slightly widened and his face was surprised, the Black Rooster King got up in surprise and knelt down to the old Taoist and said, "I can worship under the old immortal sect, no, it is the disciple's Hongfu." It's just"

As he spoke, the Black Rooster King hesitated a little.

Lao Dao smiled lightly: "But it's okay to say, don't hesitate!" ”

"The disciple is afraid, will the old immortal hate the Buddha because of this?" The Black Chicken King couldn't help but say.

Lao Dao was stunned when he heard this, and then he stroked his beard and laughed: "Haha! So you're worried about this? Rest assured, although I can't say that I am a teacher, but as a saint, the Western Buddhists dare not do anything to me. If you worship me as a teacher, they will naturally not dare to embarrass you at will. So, rest assured! ”

"Under the saint?" When the Black Chicken King heard this, he immediately looked surprised.

Lao Dao smiled, changed in an instant, and turned into a middle-aged Taoist: "Hehe, that's right!" This is the true body of the poor road! The poor Dao's name is Shen Gongbao, and he is a disciple of the Heavenly Venerable. From now on, you are a saint's disciple! ”

"This is your senior sister Yumo Fairy!" Shen Gongbao turned to the black-clothed cold woman who also transformed the deity on the side and said.

The King of the Black Rooster was surprised and excited to worship Shen Gongbao, and then he was busy seeing the Yumo Fairy.

Looking at the King of Wuji who stood up respectfully in front of him, Shen Gongbao couldn't help but smile and nodded with satisfaction: "Since you worship me as a teacher, I will give you another Taoist name as a teacher, and I will call it Wuyu Immortal!" ”

"Thank you, teacher! It's just that this immortal is called, and the disciple is a little embarrassed! King Wuji thanked and said with a slightly embarrassed smile.

When Shen Gongbao heard this, he couldn't help waving his hand and laughing: "Hehe! In vain! This is an immortal, sooner or later! ”

"However, even though you have entered the disciple of the teacher, you do not have to follow the teacher for the time being. Later, the teacher will pass on the method of your cultivation, and you will still be your king for the time being. Just don't neglect your cultivation," Shen Gongbao said again.

The Black Rooster King Wu Yu was surprised: "Teacher, why do you arrange your disciples like this?" ”

Shen Gongbao has not yet spoken. Yumo Fairy opened her mouth angrily: "Senior brother, the teacher praised you for your wisdom before, why can't you even understand this?" You have just cultivated now, and you are no different from ordinary people. It was very inconvenient to follow me and the teacher. We can't take you through the clouds every time, can we? You better cultivate in your Black Chicken Country with peace of mind first! ”

When Wu Yu heard this, he was immediately a little embarrassed.

"That's just one aspect!" Shen Gongbao smiled: "In vain! My Taoist pays attention to cause and effect. You have some qualifications, but you want to achieve great things. Penance alone is useless. As a ruler of a country, you should love your people as sons and have merit for your people. Naturally loved and possessed merit. In this way, it will be very beneficial to your spiritual practice. When you have achieved a small success, it is not a problem to call for wind and rain. When the time comes. It's up to you. It will inevitably make the black chicken country wind and rain smooth, and the country and the people will be safe. Aren't these all deeds? Moreover, you can also go to the people to understand the suffering, and realize the heart of heaven, the people, and the Dao, which will help you to experience the Dao heart. ”

When Wu Yu heard this, he immediately replied respectfully with the comprehension in his heart: "Yes." Disciple understood! ”

"Good! The child can be taught! As a teacher, I will pass on your cultivation method first! Shen Gongbao nodded and smiled

South China Sea, purple bamboo forest. Guanyin and Manjushri walked side by side and talked softly.

"Hey! The king of the black chicken has good qualifications, and he should have belonged to me in the west and obtained the Arhat fruit position, but he didn't expect to be robbed of the opportunity by Nashen Gongbao to be a disciple," Manjushri Bodhisattva looked a little annoyed and unwilling.

Guanyin Bodhisattva said indifferently: "That Shen Gongbao is used to being so clever and telling right and wrong. When he became a god, he didn't know how much trouble he caused me. It's just an arhat, if he wants it, give it to him! Is it really for this reason to move him? That Shen Gongbao dared to do this, and it must have been instructed by the Heavenly Venerable behind it. ”

"You say, does the Creation Heavenly Venerable have ulterior motives?" Manjushri, who was helpless when he heard this, couldn't help but say again.

Guanyin Bodhisattva's footsteps paused slightly, stood in place and thought for a long time with his eyes flashing, and still shook his head and said, "I really can't figure it out!" The things that Creation Tianzun does have always been incomprehensible. And after seeing it, it was too late. ”

"Yes! The Buddha asked you to look at the creation of a vein, which is really a difficult errand! Manjushri nodded.

Manjushri, who seemed to think of something, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "By the way, Tang Seng and his apprentices are going to the dry pine stream next, right?" That little doll in Huoyun Cave seems to have a fate with you, right? ”

"Hey!" When Guanyin Bodhisattva heard this, he smiled a little helplessly and said: "That little guy, it's not easy to do!" Although he has some fate with me, if I really try to subdue him, I am afraid that it will cause a lot of trouble again! ”

Manjushri nodded sympathetically and said helplessly: "Yes! That kid is the son of the Bull Demon King and the Iron Fan Princess, and the grandson of the Emperor Shakti and the Holy Mother of the Red Flower. How could the creation of a vein and the interception of the teachings make him enter my Buddhism? ”

"It's okay to say that the first line of creation is not necessarily disagreeing!" Guanyin Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "That Kong Xuan, isn't it just that he has entered the Buddha Gate?" However, it is not easy to intercept the sect. Tongtian Sect Master and I, the Second Saint of the West, have had a very stiff relationship since they were canonized gods! Moreover, those who have recently intercepted the religion have also made some moves. Along the way to the west, there are more and more variables. ”

Manjushri couldn't help but nod and said, "Bodhisattva bothered! ”

"Now, you can only brake quietly!" Guanyin Bodhisattva shook his head and smiled bitterly and continued to walk forward.

Manjushri, who raised his eyebrows slightly, also had a helpless look on his face, and then followed

Besides, the Tang monk and apprentice left the country of Wuji, lived in Xiaoxing at night, and there was more than half a moon, and suddenly saw a high mountain, which was really a skyscraper and obstructed the sun. Sanzang was frightened on the horse, and hurriedly grabbed the reins and shouted to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What does the master command?" ”

Sanzang said: "You see that there are mountains and mountains in front of you, you need to be careful to watch out, I am afraid that there will be evil things to harm me in a while." ”

Sun Wukong couldn't help but smile and said: "Master, just walk, don't be careful, Lao Sun has his own protection." ”

When Tang Seng heard this, he had to be slightly relieved, spurred his horse, and galloped to the front of the mountain, which was really very steep. But see:

The height is not high, and the top is connected to the sky; Deep is not deep. The stream is like an underground. The common bones in front of the mountain are all white clouds, and the Dai is black fog. Red plum and green bamboo, green cypress and green pine. Behind the mountain, there are tens of thousands of soul platforms. There is a strange and strange hidden magic cave behind the stage, there is a tinkling dripping water spring in the hole, and there are more twists and turns of water stream under the spring. I also saw the fruit ape jumping to the sky and sacking the ground, and the girl with horned deer, and the idiot looked at the roe deer. In the evening, Bashan looks for the cave tiger, and waits for the dawn to turn over the waves and come out of the water dragon. The sound of the door of the cave was startled, and the birds fluttered. Look at the way of the beasts in the forest. Seeing this group of birds and beasts frightened people's hearts. The hall is down, the hole is down, and the hole is down. The bluestone is dyed into a thousand pieces of jade. The blue veil shrouded thousands of piles of smoke.

The masters and apprentices were looking at it and were worried in their hearts, and they saw a red cloud in the recess of the mountain, which rose straight into the sky, gathering a ball of fire. Sun Wukong was shocked when he saw it. Approaching the front. Pushed Tang Seng off the horse and shouted: "Brothers, don't go, the monster is coming!" ”

Zhu Bajie panicked and hurriedly nailed the palladium, and Sha Seng hurriedly wheeled the staff and surrounded Tang Seng in it.

But he said that in the red light, he was really a goblin. A few years ago, he heard someone say: "The Tang monks of the eastern soil went to the west to learn scriptures." He was reincarnated by Elder Jin Cicada, a good person who practiced in the tenth generation. Someone ate a piece of his meat. Prolong life and rest with heaven and earth. ”

He waited in the mountains day after day, and he did not expect that day would come. He was in the middle of the air, watching solemnly, only to see three apprentices, surrounded Tang Seng on a horse, each ready. The elf was full of praise and said, "Good monk! I just watched a white-faced fat monk riding a horse, it was really a holy monk of the Tang Dynasty, but how could he be protected by three ugly monks! One by one, they stretched out their fists and sleeves, each holding a weapon, as if they were going to fight with others. Belch! I don't know if it's the one with eyesight, I think I should recognize me, like this, don't think about the Tang monk's meat to eat. ”

After a long silence, the monster thought to himself: "If you want to rely on the situation and capture, you can't get close; Or charm him with goodness, but get it. But he was bewildered, and when I was alive in the good, he took it categorically. Let's go down and play him. ”

The good monster immediately scattered the red light, fell according to the clouds, went to the hillside, and changed into a seven-year-old naughty boy, naked, without clothes, tied his hands and feet with hemp rope, and hung high on the top of the pine tree, and kept shouting: "Save people, save people!" ”

But said that Sun Wukong suddenly looked up and looked again, only to see that the red cloud was gone, and the fire was gone, so he couldn't help frowning and hurriedly said, "Master, please get on the horse and walk." ”

Tang Seng couldn't help but wonder: "You said that the monster is here, how dare you walk?" ”

Sun Wukong said: "I just saw a red cloud rising from the ground and forming a ball of fire in the air, which is definitely a goblin." At this moment, the red clouds dispersed, I think it's a passing goblin, don't dare to hurt people, let's go! ”

Zhu Bajie couldn't help laughing and said: "Senior brother speaks the most skillfully, what kind of goblin has to pass?" ”

Sun Wukong couldn't help but say: "How do you know, if the demon king of which mountain and which cave holds a banquet and invites the spirits of the mountains and caves to the meeting, but there are elves from the southeast, west, and northwest to the meeting, so he only has the heart to go to the meeting, and has no intention of hurting people." This is the fairy who passes by. ”

When Sanzang heard this, he didn't seem to believe it or not, so he had to climb the saddle on the horse and run along the way to the mountain. When he was walking, he could only hear the cry "Help!" ”

Tang Seng was shocked: "Apprentice, where is the name of this person in the middle of the mountain?" ”

Sun Wukong stepped forward and said: "Master, just walk, don't worry about anyone's sedan chair, mule sedan chair, Ming sedan chair sleeping sedan chair." In this place, there is a sedan chair, and no one carries you. ”

Tang Seng frowned and said: "It's not a sedan chair to carry, it's a call to call." ”

Sun Wukong's eyes flashed and he smiled: "I know, don't be nosy, and walk." ”

Sanzang followed his words, rode his horse and continued to move forward, and when he couldn't go a mile, he heard the shout "Save people!" ”

Tang Seng couldn't help but say: "Apprentice, this cry is not a ghost or demon. If it is a ghost and a demon, but there is a sound, there is no echo. When you hear him scream and scream, he must be a man in trouble, and we can go and save him. ”

Sun Wukong hurriedly said: "Master, put away this compassion a little today, and after this mountain, be merciful again." This place is more auspicious and less auspicious, you know that the saying of leaning on grass and attaching trees is that things can become essence. All kinds of things are okay, only ordinary pythons, but they have cultivated for a long time, and they have become charming, and they can know people's nicknames. If he calls a man in the grass or in the hollow of the mountain, it is okay if they do not answer; If he agreed, he would leave the human spirit and follow him that night, and definitely hurt people's lives. Let's go, let's go! The ancients said, you can take it off, thank the gods, don't listen to him. ”

Tang Seng had no choice but to follow him, and whipped the horse away. Sun Wukong thought to himself: "I don't know where this monster is, just scream and scream." Wait for my grandson to give him a Mao Youxing Method, so that he will not meet. ”

In his heart, Sun Wukong hurriedly called Monk Sha to come: "Hold the horse, walk slowly, and let Lao Sun relieve himself." ”

He asked Tang Seng to take a few steps ahead, but he recited a mantra to make a way to move mountains and shrink the ground, and pointed the golden hoop stick back, he passed this peak and walked forward, but left the monster behind, he dragged away again, caught up with Tang Seng, and ran all the way to the mountain. I saw that Sanzang heard the shouts from behind the mountain, "Save people!" ”

Tang Seng said: "Apprentice, the person who is in trouble has no chance of the law, and he has never met us." We walked past him, and you heard him cry behind the mountain. ”

Zhu Bajie said: "I was still in front of the mountain, but now the wind has changed." ”

Sun Wukong said impatiently: "It doesn't matter if he turns the wind or not, and walks." ”

But said that the goblin was in the hillside, and he screamed three or four times in a row, and no one came, so he thought in his heart: "I waited for Tang Seng to be here, and I saw that he couldn't leave three miles, but why didn't he get it for half an hour?" I think I copied the road. ”

He shook his body, took off the rope, and then went up to the air to see again. Unexpectedly, Sun Dasheng looked back and realized that it was a monster, and pushed Tang Seng off the horse with his feet and said, "Brothers, be careful, be careful!" The goblin is here again! ”

This shout, so panicked that the Bajie and Sha Seng each held a sword, and surrounded Tang Seng in the middle.

When the elf saw this, he was envious in mid-air and said, "Good monk! I just saw the white-faced monk sitting on a horse, but why was it hidden by the three of them? I will know when I go to meet. first knocked down the eye-sighted one, and then caught Tang Seng. Otherwise, it will be difficult to obtain things in vain, and the prosperity will be in vain. ”

The monster pressed the cloud head again, just like the previous change, hanging high on the top of the pine mountain and waiting, but this time it was not half a mile away.

At this time, Tang Seng could hear the voice of saving his life clearly, it should still be a child's voice, and he couldn't help but feel unbearable, and asked his apprentices to go and see it together.

Sun Wukong wanted to stop him, but Tang Seng refused to listen to him anymore, and reprimanded him that if he didn't go, he would recite the mantra.

Sun Wukong was depressed and helpless, so he had to go by Tang Seng. But secretly, Sun Wukong was cautious, held the golden hoop stick tightly, and followed closely behind Tang Seng. (To be continued......)
