Chapter 90: Journey to the West (53)

Tang Xuanzang said: Amitabha! The poor monk was caught by the scorpion spirit in the Xiliang women's country. I don't know much about what happened in Xiliang Women's Country. As for Wang Jushi, he has been in the Xiliang Women's Country, so you should ask him.

Guanyin said: There is a monk of King Lao, tell me what happened in the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.

I said, "Where Guanyin Bodhisattva is, I'll just tell the truth."

The Xiliang Women's Country was encircled and suppressed by the 15 countries of Xiliang, and it happened to be an official of the Tang Dynasty. So the king of Xiliang Nu asked for help from Datang through me. And the Xiliang Women's Kingdom as a whole was merged into the Tang Dynasty. Cheng Bingjin, the commander of the Datang Tiance Army, is quelling chaos in the Baoxiang Country. Received my flying pigeon and led the army to the Xiliang Women's Country. first escorted everyone in the Xiliang Women's Country and went to the Tang Dynasty. Then leave one to contain the enemy army in the Xiliang Women's Country, and the rest will go to attack the 15 countries. Now the entire Xiliang is the border of the Tang Dynasty.

Guanyin said: Amitabha! Thank you Wang Jushi for solving your doubts, and the poor monk has thanked you here.

I said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva doesn't need to thank me, I'll just repeat the matter to you."

Guanyin said: Then I still want to thank you. Where did Tang Xuanzang go to that fake Wukong just now?

Tang Xuanzang said: Qiyu Guanyin Bodhisattva, the fake Wukong just now was beaten away by the real Wukong.

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

Guanyin said: Tang Xuanzang don't shake the heart of learning scriptures, all this is the calamity of your scriptures.

Tang Xuanzang said: Thank you Guanyin Bodhisattva for your advice!

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: Tang Xuanzang, you should be careful all the way. The poor monk is gone.

Amitabha!

I said: Master Xuanzang, you will also tell lies!

Tang Xuanzang said: Although the monks dare not speak falsely, they have to be in a hurry when necessary.

I said: Master Xuanzang, you are really good, and you know how to be flexible!

Tang Xuanzang said: Hey! This is also forced!

I said, "Master Xuanzang, have you perfected your own scriptures to that extent?"

Tang Xuanzang said: I condensed 36 pieces of relics Xuanzang scriptures, that is, I have just started. Condense 72 relics, Xuanzang's true scriptures are small. I condensed 108 relics, and Xuanzang's true scriptures were completed. It's something I've vaguely sensed.

I said: Master Xuanzang, you are really amazing! The position of the Buddha beckons to you!

Tang Xuanzang said happily: Where is it! The position of the Buddha is fixed, and the wheel is not my turn.

I said: Master Xuanzang, go on your own path, don't shake your heart!

Tang Xuanzang said: Yes! The poor monk knows! Wukong, keep going!

On the way, Tang Xuanzang asked Wukong: That six-eared macaque, what is the kind-hearted Buddha to deal with him?

Wukong said: Master, you can even sense this?

Tang Xuanzang said: I'm not sure, but I have a lot of affection for six-eared macaques.

Wukong said: Master, did you take him as me?

Tang Xuanzang said: I know who is against whom. This is definitely not a problem, you don't have to worry.

Wukong said: The six-eared macaque was chased and killed by Buddhism. It was after I left Huaguo Mountain to apprentice, and I don't know why.

Tang Xuanzang said: Hey! It's a bit of a pity, the next time I encounter a six-eared macaque, I must ask clearly.

Wukong said: Then you will ask again next time!

Along the way, we walked into the Flaming Mountain Desert!

Tang Xuanzang said: Wukong, is it so hot in this desert?

Wukong said: Master, you just bear with it! At night, it's cool in the desert.

Zhu Bajie said: Master, find a place to rest! My old pig is about to become a roasted pig.

Sha Seng said: Yes! Master, I can't hold on anymore.

Tang Xuanzang said: Okay then! Everyone rested first, and they were on their way when it got dark.

I took down the four bamboo poles I was carrying on my back, and then I took down the straw nets that I was knitting in my idle and boring manners. Stick the bamboo pole on the ground first, and then hang the grass net. A shade net, right on the desert.

Zhu Bajie said: Wang Guard, you still have a way! It doesn't have to be so hot now, it's so comfortable!

Tang Xuanzang said: Wang Jushi, at the beginning, we thought that where you were bored and making up and playing!

I said, "I'm making things up and playing, what are you doing making up so much?" I'm afraid of this situation, so don't you use it now!

Tang Xuanzang said: Wang Jushi, it turns out that you have been prepared for a long time!

I said, "Of course you don't know these things." I took out the naan, and then I took out a few bags of water and gave them to the people.

Wukong said: Wang Jushi, why don't you boil porridge?

I said, "On such a hot day, I'm boiling some porridge." Except for Master Bajie here, who can still drink?

Wukong said: That's right, it's still Wang Huwei's thoughtfulness.

Zhu Bajie said: Wang Huwei, you are a big man. Why do you live so finely! It's really uncomfortable for my old pig!

I said, "If you don't have me, will you have a hot meal, and will you have a good night's sleep?"

Sha Seng said: Hehe! This is true, it's really not good if it's not fine!

Tang Xuanzang said: Wukong, can you find out where this is?

Wu Kong recited the spell, and the land lord came out of the sand. Then he respectfully asked: General Wu, what are the instructions for summoning the little gods?

Wukong said: What do you still want to do in this land?

The land said: General Wu spoke, and the little god didn't understand!

Wukong said: You make it so hot here, isn't this going to kill people!

The land said: General Wu, you are wrong to blame the little god.

Wukong said: Oh! I'm still wrong for you, tell me where I blame you?

The land said: The little god is so powerful, he can't even attract the earth fire, how can I make this place so hot.

Wu Kong thought for a while and said: Oh! Then I'm wrong about you!

The land said: There are other people who have made this situation here!

Wukong said: Who?

The land said: Taishang Laojun!

Wukong said: Him!

The land said: Once, Taishang Laojun failed to fry the furnace in alchemy. One of the fragments of the alchemy furnace fell in this place. Presumably Taishang Laojun's samadhi true fire, General Wu knows it very well!

Wukong said: Oops! No wonder!

The land said: Little god, there is nothing to go back to. What else did General Wu command?

Wukong said: Thank you for the land, you go back! I'll look for you again if there's something.

After the land left, Tang Xuanzang said: Wukong, you look for Laojun and collect the fragments of this alchemy furnace!

Wukong said: Master, if only it were so simple. Taishang Laojun, didn't he take back this fragment a long time ago!

Tang Xuanzang said: What should I do?

Wukong said: Let's take one step at a time! Let's talk about it before we get to the mountain!

Tang Xuanzang said: Hey! That's all there is to it!

When it was almost dark, we were on our way again. It wasn't until dawn that we finally found a gathering place for people's houses.

Because Tang Xuanzang knows Sanskrit, he communicates smoothly with the local people.

Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng joked: Senior Brother Sha, this person looks very similar to you! Is this your hometown?
