Thirty-three days away, away from the hateful sky, in the palace.

Taishang Laojun hung the purple gold and red gourd on the gossip furnace, sat cross-legged on the futon, and said to the gold and silver boys behind him: "Today I am closed to alchemy, and no one will come!" Go! ”

"Yes!" When the gold and silver boys heard this, they bowed their heads and answered, and went to guard outside the Tushi Palace, not teaching anyone to approach.

After a while, I saw Chang Geng Xing bright, and then the white-haired, pleasant-faced Tai Bai Xing descended outside the Tushi Palace, and saw the gold and silver boys from a distance, so he asked with a smile: "Xiantong, I don't know where Lao Jun is?" ”

"Master is refining the pill behind closed doors, and no one will see the word when it comes down, please go back!" , the Golden Furnace Boy replied.

"I am here on the order of the Jade Emperor, if I have something important to say to Lao Jun, please be accommodating!" , Tai Bai Xing said with a smile.

"Okay, you wait here, I'll pass the word." As soon as the Golden Furnace Boy heard that he had come by the will of the Jade Emperor, he didn't pay attention, entered the Tushi Palace, went straight to the Danfang and asked, "Master, Tai Bai Xing asks to see you." ”

"Nope." , Taishang Laojun closed his eyes and recuperated, brushed the dust and moved, and replied.

"Yes!" , The golden furnace boy hurriedly returned to the outside of the palace, waved his hand and shouted: "Master's alchemy is at a critical juncture, I don't have time to see you, go back quickly!" ”

"Okay!" , Tai Bai Xing had no choice, although he had a will, but he didn't dare to make Taishang Laojun unhappy, so he turned around and went down for thirty-three days and returned to Nantianmen.

After a while, I saw that the West was full of brilliance, and the clear-eyed Hui'an walker rushed to the clouds, saw the two boys, and hurriedly said: "Two Taoist boys, do you know where the old man is?" ”

"Master is refining the pill behind closed doors, and no one will see the word when it comes down, please go back!" , the silver furnace boy replied.

"I was ordered by the Bodhisattva of the South China Sea to come to inquire about Sun Wukong, and I also asked the two of you to make it convenient and help me pass it on!" , Hui Anxing said.

"Okay, you wait here, I'll pass the word." As soon as the silver furnace boy heard that he was coming by the Bodhisattva's decree, he didn't pay attention, entered the Tushi Palace, went straight to the Danfang and asked, "Master, Hui'an Xing asks to see." ”

"Nope." , Taishang Laojun closed his eyes and recuperated, unmoved, and replied.

"Yes!" , The silver furnace boy hurriedly returned to the outside of the palace, waved his hand and shouted: "Master's alchemy is at a critical juncture, I don't have time to see you, go back quickly!" ”

"Okay!" , Hui'an walkers were helpless, although they had the law to protect themselves, but they did not dare to break into the Tushi Palace, so they had to go down to the auspicious clouds for thirty-three days and went to Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea.

But it didn't take long for a golden streamer to fly in the sky, and then Yuan Zongbing, who was eight feet tall and had a golden crown and bundled hair, came forward with his hands and dropped a sentence, "I'm here to see the master." Then he went to the Tushi Palace.

"Hey, hey, this is Tushi Palace, not Lingxiao Palace! No matter how anxious you are, you have to let us know about it! The Golden Furnace Boy stopped Yuan Zongbing, and then motioned to the Silver Furnace Boy to sneak in and report: "Master, Yuan Zongbing asks to see." ”

"Oh?" Taishang Laojun opened his eyes slightly, his divine light flowed, and said, "Let him come in!" ”

"Yes!" , The silver furnace boy hurriedly ran back to the palace and said, "Master let you in!" ”

"Well, thank you, thank you!" , Yuan Zongbing bent his hand and patted the heads of the two boys, and then entered the Danfang by himself, and when he saw Taishang Laojun, he bowed and said: "Master is above, please accept the disciple's worship!" ”

"Well, you haven't thought about it behind closed doors in Long Dexing, why did I leave the hated heavens?" , Taishang Laojun asked.

"Uncle Master, since the last time I received your teachings, Shui Sheng has been living in Longde for a long time, and I don't dare to leave even half a step!

It's just because I haven't seen the master for a long time and misses him very much, so I sent Shui Sheng to visit and greet him! Yuan replied sincerely.

"Hmph, you used the pseudonym Tiangang before, and you leaked many heavenly secrets in the world, and you have committed a mortal sin.

It's only because the Jade Emperor remembers that you are the protector of my Daomen, and you have an old relationship with Haotian God, that you will be punished for guarding Longdexing, and you will never be able to come out!

Who said, you still don't know how to repent, and went to Gao Laozhuang first without permission, and then visited Wuzhuang Temple, don't you know when I do? Taishang Laojun snorted coldly.

"Hey, hey, the master has vast magical powers, boundless mana, immortal blessings are eternal, longevity and Tianqi, the three realms of shock, and the world is invincible!"

Mr. Yuan came casually, patted Lao Jun too much, frowned, and reprimanded: "Okay, what is the reason why you came to my Doushi Palace today?" ”

"Ask the master to spare my brother's life!" , The smile on Yuan Zongbing's face disappeared, and he fell down in the tunnel.

"Sun Wukong has resurrected his demonic nature and intends to kill the gods, if I don't destroy him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the Jade Emperor." , Taishang Laojun refused without thinking about it.

"Uncle Master, this is our Taoist business, what do you explain to the old boy of the Jade Emperor?!" , General Yuan raised his head and said angrily.

"The Jade Emperor is in charge of the Three Realms on behalf of Haotian, this is the Mandate of Heaven! And Sun Wukong killed the gods, which is to disobey the mandate of heaven!

Since the flood and famine, anyone who disobeys the mandate of heaven is destined to be intolerable by heaven and die between heaven and earth. ”

Taishang Laojun paused and said slowly: "Moreover, Sun Wukong is the demon fetus incarnated by the ancient demon Wuzhi Qi, who was originally abandoned by heaven and earth, and should have had this fate 500 years ago!"

It was only because you begged bitterly when you thought of the same origin with him, that I borrowed the hand of the West Heaven to remove the demonic nature in his heart with the light of the Buddha, thinking that he would be able to embark on the right path from now on......"

"......", Yuan Zongbing knew the truth of what Taishang Laojun said, 500 years ago, Sun Wukong was like a heavenly demon who came to the world, reborn without a branch, disobeyed the jurisdiction of heaven and earth, and gathered countless demons in the world in Huaguo Mountain, intending to fight against the heavenly palace......

The Taoist thought that Sun Wukong was a natural stone monkey, and he couldn't bear to take his life, so he either pretended to be deaf and dumb, or pretended to be invincible, which made Sun Wukong unscrupulous and hit the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

But the Jade Emperor was already dissatisfied with the dominance of the Taoist family in the Heavenly Court, and saw that this time the face of the Heavenly Court was damaged due to the lack of work of the Taoists, so he deliberately led Xi Tianru to the scene and suppressed Sun Wukong......

"Shuisheng, this monkey-headed demon has a deep heart, you can save him for a while, you can't save him for a lifetime, let's go back by yourself!" , Taishang Laojun sighed slightly.

"Uncle Master, if I can save him once, I can save him a second time!" , Yuan Zongbing knelt down again and said: "I implore the master to return the moonlight treasure box to me, I want to return Sun Wukong to the right path!" ”

"You're still not giving up?"

"I'm not going to give up!"

"You don't regret it?"

"I don't regret it!"

"Shuisheng, even if you really return to the right path for Sun Wukong again, you will still be controlled by the mandate of heaven, continue the road of learning scriptures from the West, and finally return to the West Heaven Buddha Gate in vain, why bother?!"

"Buddha is the way! As long as Sun Wukong can return to the right path, is it a Buddha or a way, what makes the difference?! Yuan Zongbing knelt down for the third time.

"Since this is the ......", Taishang Laojun pondered for a moment, took out a boxy long box from his sleeve, and handed it to Yuan Zongbing:

"This map of mountains and rivers was originally a treasure given to you by Nuwa Niangniang, and it was only because you caused trouble in the lower realm last time that I accepted it.

Now I officially return you, I hope to use it properly, don't get into trouble again, remember to remember! ”

"Thank you, Master!" , Yuan Zongbing took over the map of mountains and rivers, engraved with Sanskrit "Maha Prajna Paramita" in the center, painted mountains and rivers on the left, and engraved the sun, moon and stars on the right -

Originally it was Nuwa Niangniang's baby, one of the top ten innate spiritual treasures, this picture has heaven and earth, nourishing heaven and earth, can incarnate all things, and can reverse time and space, and the end is the treasure of the wilderness.

Only for some reason, Nuwa Niangniang gave the Shanhe Society map to Yuan Zongbing for self-defense, in order to do the way of heaven and gods.

Later, in order to make it easy to carry, this mountain and river society map was transformed into a rectangular treasure box shape by Yuan Zongbing and walked in his arms.

And because Yuan Zongbing's body is a white ape with a straight arm, he likes moonlight the most in his life, so this treasure box has been nicknamed by him since then: Moonlight Treasure Box, that's it......
