Let's say that the four masters and apprentices of Tang Sanzang traveled all the way to the west, walked for more than a month, and just crossed the Wusi Tibetan boundary, they saw a high mountain in front of them, blocking the road.

Tang Sanzang restrained the white dragon horse, looked at the mountain carefully, and asked with some worry: "Wukong, Bajie, the mountain ahead is high and the water is dangerous, you need to be more careful when passing by." ”

Zhu Bajie listened to it, smiled and replied, "Master, don't worry. This mountain is called Futu Mountain, there is a Wuchao Zen master in the mountain, who practices here, and my old pig has also been in contact with him. ”

Tang Sanzang asked, "That Wuchao Zen Master is also a hidden master?" ”

Zhu Bajie replied: "He also seems to have some Taoism, and he has persuaded me to practice with him in the past, but I didn't agree." ”

When Hu Rong heard this, he raised his head and took a closer look at this Futu Mountain, only to feel that the mountains here are verdant and peachy, mountain birds and cranes, weeds and flowers, there is surging green water under the stream, and there are auspicious clouds in front of the cliff.

The four masters and apprentices watched at the foot of the mountain, only to see a huge cypress tree on the mountainside, there was a bird's nest made of firewood and grass on it, there were elk flowers on the left, there were mountain monkeys offering fruits on the right, there were green luans and colorful phoenixes singing together at the top of the treetops, and the cranes and golden chickens were salty.

Zhu Bajie was overjoyed, pointed to the Taoist in the bird's nest, and said, "Master, Zen Master Wuchao is there." ”

Tang Sanzang whipped his horse and came to the foot of the cypress tree, Hu Rong Bajie and Gohan also followed, and the Wuchao Zen Master saw a few people, and also left the nest and fell from the tree.

Tang Sanzang got off the horse and proclaimed the Buddha's number, bowed his head and bowed, but was held by Wuchao Zen Master with his hand, and said: "Holy monk, please get up quickly, you and I have listened to the teachings in Elysium, how can I accept your courtesy?" ”

When Tang Sanzang heard this, he was a little confused, and he was about to ask for an understanding, but he saw that the Wuchao Zen Master was silent, and turned to look at Zhu Bajie.

"Old Zen master, disciple Zhu Bajie has made a move." , Zhu Bajie knew that Wuchao Zen Master was a hidden power, so he gave a Buddhist disciple ceremony.

When Zen Master Wuchao saw it, he asked in surprise: "You are Fuling Mountain Boar Gangguana, you actually have such a fate, can you walk with the holy monk?" ”

Zhu Bajie replied with a smile: "A few years ago, the disciple was instructed by Guanyin Bodhisattva to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures with the master Xitian. ”

Wuchao Zen Master was overjoyed, and even said a few "good, good, good." Then he looked at Hu Rong and Gohan, and asked in confusion and surprise, "Who are these two?" ”

"I'm Monkey King, and he's my junior brother Xiong Gohan." , Hu Rong looked at Wuchao Zen Master and replied, but he was muttering in his heart about the origin of this mysterious mage,

Wuchao Zen Master said "oh", obviously he didn't know the origin of Sun Wukong and Xiong Wuhan, but his face showed a more strange and indescribable look, looked at Hu Rong, and then looked at Wuhan, and sighed for a long time: "Sure enough, what Yuan Zongbing said is true." ”

"General Yuan?" When Hu Rong heard this word, he was a little vigilant at the moment, and hurriedly asked, "Where is that sacred?" ”

"The Buddha said, don't say it." , Wuchao Zen Master shook his head, then took out a piece of jade Jue from his arms, handed it to Hu Rong, and said: "However, that person entrusted my hand to give you a creation, you can do it yourself." ”

After saying this, Wuchao Zen Master no longer paid attention to Hu Rong, and exchanged two words with Tang Sanzang, and passed on a copy of the "Multi-Heart Sutra", which is the general scripture of cultivating the truth and the door of the Buddha.

"In that case, I will go!" , Wuchao Zen Master passed on the scriptures, stepped on the clouds, and was about to go back to the bird's nest on the tree, but was stopped by Tang Sanzang and asked about the westward journey.

"The road is not difficult, listen to me. Thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers are deep, and there are many miasma and many magic places. If you encounter a cliff, rest assured that you will be terrified. Walk to Moore Rock and follow the footsteps sideways.

Carefully in the black pine forest, the demon fox intercepts the road. The elves are full of cities, and the demon lord Yingshan lives. The tiger sits in the piano hall, and the blue wolf is the main book. Lions and elephants are kings, and tigers and leopards are kings.

The wild boar carries the burden, and the water monster meets in front. The old stone monkey for many years has to be created. You ask the acquaintance, and he knows the way to the west. Wuchao Zen Master sang and went on his own.

"Wukong, what do you mean by this, mage?" , Tang Sanzang didn't know that Wuchao Zen Master's words vaguely involved the ordeal of the westward journey, and asked Hu Rongdao.

"Master, these people just like to hide and play with their wits, just now this sentence means that on our road to the west, we will encounter monsters such as wolves, insects, tigers, leopards, snakes, ants, lions, elephants!"

Hu Rong said as he groped for the jade jue in his hand, and his divine sense swept it, only to feel that it was a door Xuangong, and it was somewhat similar to his own seventy-two changes.

"Amitabha!" When Tang Sanzang heard this, he pronounced a Buddha name, then bid farewell to Wuchao Zen Master, turned over the horse, climbed over Futu Mountain, and went to the west.

In this way, after a long time, it was getting late, and Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice were hungry, but they saw a cottage next to the mountain road.

Tang Sanzang was overjoyed and said, "Wukong, there is a family on the side of the road, let's go over and spend the night and leave tomorrow." ”

Zhu Bajie heard this, and also responded: "What the master said is true, my old pig is also a little hungry, let's go to that family to eat some fasting." ”

Gohan also nodded, he carried the burden all the way to the west, and he had long felt hungry in his belly, and when he heard Zhu Bajie's words, he thought it was true.

"Okay, let's go spend the night and ask for some fasting by the way! However, Bajie, Gohan, you two don't do anything out of the ordinary and scare others! Hu Rong looked around and replied.

"Brother Monkey, look at what you said, my old pig is born like this, how can you teach me to hide it?

Moreover, my old pig looks like now, and he is more handsome than when he was in Gao Laozhuang, if that person is frightened, my old pig has no choice! Zhu Bajie rubbed his nose and said.

"Idiot, if you want to meet someone, you naturally ask the master to go first, and then introduce me and other disciples, so that you can go with the flow." , Hu Rong patted Wu Han and asked him to put his luggage on the side of the road, and then walked to the door with Tang Sanzang in his arms and knocked on it.

"Old man!" , Tang Sanzang looked inside the door, and when he saw that it was an old man, he said: "The poor monk is a monk of the Tang Dynasty in the eastern soil, and he went to the West Tianleiyin Temple to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures. Passing by here, I saw that it was getting late, and I wanted to spend the night here. ”

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I can't go, it's difficult to learn from the west." If the holy monk wants to get the scriptures, go to the east! ”

"Old man, the Bodhisattva has already pointed out the way, and the scriptures are in the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple, why do you ask me to wait for the east?" , Tang Sanzang asked puzzled.

The old man smiled bitterly a few times and replied, "The holy monk doesn't know anything! Hit us to the west, about thirty miles away, there is a mountain, called eight hundred miles of Huangfeng Ridge, there are countless monsters in the mountain, and there is a yellow eyebrow king sitting in the town, how dare ordinary people go over! ”

"Hehe, Huangmei child, don't be afraid! As long as you wait for your grandson to eat and drink to your heart's content, when you pass by Huangfengling, you will naturally get rid of those monsters for you! ”

"This hairy-faced little monk is a good brag." The old man said this, but he still opened the door and instructed his family to prepare a pot of food.

When he turned around, he saw Zhu Bajie and Wu Han, and he was so frightened that he only said that it was the Huangfengling monster who entered the village, but fortunately Tang Sanzang was relieved, so he relaxed a little and entertained a few people into the house for dinner.

But he said that Zhu Bajie's stomach was really big, and Tang Sanzang, Hu Rong and Wu Han had only eaten three bowls in total, but he swallowed three bowls of rice alone, and urged the old man to eat rice, until the old man ate all the pots of rice, and he was barely half full.

Subsequently, Wu Han made a cover under the hall and waited for Tang Sanzang to sleep, and then squeezed together with Hu Rong and Zhu Bajie on a large bunk and slept by himself.

At dawn the next day, Zhu Bajie went to lead the horse, Wuhan sorted out the two burdens, and when Tang Sanzang finished breakfast, he said goodbye to the old man's family and drove Ma Xi to go.

However, before leaving, Hu Rong threw a silver ingot in the door, about fifty taels, which was regarded as the cost of his junior brother eating up the old man's family's food, and then strode towards the direction of Huangfengling.

This road is not as smooth as before, with steep mountains on both sides, barren grass all over the mountains, and wild beasts roaring from time to time.
