Outwitting the King
The scenery along the way is very beautiful, if you look at it with a leisurely eye. It's a pity that we have a task on our bodies and are not in the mood to watch it.
And after a few more months of travel, he came to the outer part of a city. An old woman came up from the ramp and told us that the country ahead of us was very dangerous, and that all the monks who entered it would be killed. When the master heard this, he was so frightened that he rolled off the horse and recited "Amitabha".
Brother Monkey decided that he would go in to find out the situation, and let's wait here, and then we will add it up together.
When Brother Monkey came back, he not only brought back the clothes that went into the city, but also brought back a lot of delicious things such as steamed buns, flower rolls, and buns.
Brother Monkey said that we have to dress up as laymen to enter the city.
At first, I thought I was going to wait for our hair to grow out before going in, but it turned out that Brother Monkey meant to wait until it was dark to go in. This time difference is indeed a bit big, and I can't accept it for a while.
The big guys all know that my old pig's head is very big, and the clothes and shoes are generally oversized, but the scarf stolen by Brother Monkey can't reach my head, and in the end, Brother Monkey tore off some of his for me, so I barely got together. It seems that obesity is not only not good for the health of the body, but also consumes more daily necessities than others. It's like eating, Brother Monkey only eats a few apples, but I have to eat a few buckets of rice; It's like dressing, Brother Monkey only needs one foot of cloth, while I need five feet of cloth; It's like sleeping, Brother Monkey only needs a half-foot-wide floor, while I need a three-foot-wide bed.
When we entered the city, we went in after changing our name and surname, the master is called Tang Daguanren, Brother Monkey is called Sun Erguanren, I am called Zhu Sanguanren, and Senior Brother Sha is called Sha Siguanren. This time, Brother Monkey was quite fair, and he didn't put Senior Brother Sha in the first place like he did last time when he ate the fruits of life.
We're horse dealers now.
Senior Brother Sha said that he wanted to do business in the future, and he didn't know if he had considered really becoming a horse dealer; But then again, it's more appropriate for Brother Monkey to sell horses, after all, he used to be a horse seller and knows how to communicate with horses.
We are all bald people, if we take off our hats while sleeping and are discovered, won't we even lose our lives? So, to be on the safe side, Brother Monkey decided that we all had to sleep in the cupboard of the hotel.
Brother Monkey was still not at ease, and asked the proprietress to lock the cabinet door, plug in the pins, and lead the white horse to the cabinet.
I think Brother Monkey has gone a little too far, and smart people will know at a glance that it is "three hundred taels of silver here"?
slept until midnight, and heard Brother Monkey talking in a daze, probably talking in his sleep.
Before dawn, I was woken up, at first I thought it was Brother Monkey playing, but later through the cracks in the cabinet found that we had been carried outside the city. Judging by the roadside references, we were going west, but now we are being carried back to the east. Brother Monkey didn't know what to do, and said one after another: Don't shout, it's better to carry it to the west sky! Walk-free.
Brother Monkey said that he knew why: those people thought that there was some gold, silver and jewelry hidden in this cabinet, and wanted to rob it and share the spoils. Master kept complaining: How is this good...... That's how it can be good. I don't think it's worth it. If you walk in with great fanfare before, and you are beheaded, it is called heroic righteousness; According to the current situation, when killing the head, it must belong to "catching a turtle in an urn"; The turtle is also Wang Ba, and the name is somewhat unelegant.
Brother Monkey looked indifferent, saying that he would be fine tomorrow. I don't know if Brother Monkey refers to the knife that chops off the head, "It's okay" or if it refers to our head "It's okay".
Sure enough, the next day, someone carried us to the court.
After holding it all night, I was very annoyed, and as soon as the cabinet door was opened, I hurriedly jumped out, frightening the civil and military officials one by one. They had estimated that the chest contained a treasure because it had been snatched from the hands of thieves. I didn't expect it to be a big living person sleeping in the cabinet, it seems that the sense of innovation will really surprise people. There is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that others can't do.
At first, I thought the king was going to click on us, so after I went out, I immediately started a fight. I've said before that there are many things in this world that I can't predict, and this is happening again.
As soon as Master came out, unexpectedly, the king personally stepped down from the throne to greet Master and asked Master to forgive them. Then he took off his hat and stretched out his head to show the master. The king didn't have a hair on his head!
Then, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty also took off their hats and stretched out their heads to show the master; Damn, their heads are even more desolate than ours!
Now everyone is a monk, a family, it's easy to talk about and discuss, and the matter of cutting off the head is naturally forgotten!
The king not only did not blame us, but kept saying thank you. My old pig is a little flattered, you can imagine how easy it is for a murderer on the execution ground to be suddenly embraced as a king.
Of course I know that Brother Monkey did this, even if Brother Monkey doesn't say it himself, I can guess: Master doesn't have that ability, Senior Brother Sha doesn't have that awareness, and it wasn't my old pig who did it; In this way, it must be Brother Monkey. It's just that I haven't been able to figure it out: where did Brother Monkey find so many shavers overnight?
A person who cherishes time is a person who cherishes life. Brother Monkey really vividly interprets this sentence: when we were all just sleeping, we came presciently to move the flowers, so that our heads are still in their original places.
