"Fate?" Xuanzang glanced at Li Wei, "Monks often turn into relationships. ”

Li Wei said: "I mean, go to Junzhou to turn into a fate, Li Cuilian, Jin Hai, does the master think of anything?" ”

Xuanzang recited a Buddha name, closed his eyes, and said after a while: "The poor monk dreamed that Guanyin Bodhisattva mentioned this matter last night, and he didn't dare to believe it, so he didn't leave. ”

There is Guanyin Bodhisattva in everything.

Li Wei exhaled a long breath: "Then this matter, can I do something for the master, Junzhou is still quite far away." ”

Xuanzang said slowly: "It's not a matter of distance, the poor monk can't bear to do it." ”

Li Wei was stunned.

In the section "Liu Quan enters the melon" in "Journey to the West", it is said that Liu Quan's wife Li Cuilian gave a golden hairpin to the monk who turned into a relationship, but was scolded by Liu Quan, Li Cuilian committed suicide, Liu Quan regretted it, and did not want to live, so he volunteered to send melons to the underworld for the Tang King.

This episode, including Taizong's entry into the underworld, was filmed in both the old version and Zhang Jizhong's version of the Journey to the West TV series, but it was later deleted, so the general audience did not know.

In fact, if it involves feudal superstition alone, the entire Journey to the West can't be filmed.

If you want to tell children that there is no hell in the world, then why should the monkeys be kept in the underworld?

Probably, Taizong's entry into the underworld and Liu Quan's entry into melons are both "soft texts" by traditional literati to promote karma for Buddhism, and this kind of "persuasion" is actually equivalent to brainwashing and belongs to "feudal dross".

Because of the involvement of these two stories, the plot of the Dragon King of Jinghe in the TV series was also deleted, so as not to make the plot incoherent.

In a sense, Radio and Television deleted it well this time, because those three stories were originally imposed into Journey to the West in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as restoring the original appearance of Journey to the West and maintaining the copyright of the original authors of the three stories, hehe.

Well, to say "Liu Quanjin melon" is to preach karma. Then we have to mention the original appearance of this story.

The meta-miscellaneous drama of this story can only see the title now, and the content is lost, and through the folk songs that are now circulating, it may be possible to speculate a thing or two.

In the Qing Dynasty's "Cuilian Treasure Scroll", it is said that Guanyin asked Xuanzang to raise gold hairpins from Li Cuilian, and then deliberately sold them to Liu Quan, causing Liu Quan to misunderstand and forcing Li Cuilian to death.

Because Li Cuilian has a good heart and will not die, she will not only be resurrected later. also became Li Shimin's royal sister.

In doing so, Guanyin can be regarded as taking advantage of the influence of the major event of Taizong's entry into the underworld to take the opportunity to promote Buddhism.

From Xuanzang's prayer for rain to the dragon king of the Jing River, to Taizong's entry into the underworld, and then to Liu Quan's entry into melons, Guanyin's series of means, put into modern times, can be regarded as a very classic marketing case.

The effect is that all the people of the Tang Dynasty are looking forward to the arrival of the Western Longitude.

This version is actually more reasonable.

Why when Tang Taizong wanted to send pumpkins. happened to have the Li Cuilian incident, which made Liu Quan feel painful.

And what prompted Li Cuilian's suicide was a monk who turned into a relationship, and the golden hairpin circulated for hundreds of miles. was bought by Liu Quan, who was doing business in other places, is there such a coincidence in the world?

There is no Buddhism to manipulate behind the scenes, who believes it!

However, such a statement as the Cuilian Treasure Scroll. After all, it is late folk literature, and it is not elegant, obviously. The system is reluctant to use this kind of plot to change the plot of the original book.

So, Xuanzang just had a dream.

Xuanzang refused to go to Junzhou, and Li Wei couldn't.

Soon, Li Wei came to the capital land temple again, found the old monk transformed by Guanyin, and mentioned the same keyword.

"Xuanzang doesn't go to Junzhou, why don't you leave this matter to me?" Li Wei said.

The old monk didn't even raise his eyelids: "You are not from Buddhism." ”

Li Wei was stunned, and this is exquisite.

Can't Taoist priests turn into fate?

Well, for Guanyin, the people in the Dao Gate are certainly not trustworthy.

The spread of Buddhism to the east is to rob the Taoists of their jobs.

"Forget it, let's wait for Yingluo to go online." Li Wei shook his head.

Li Wei came to the melon, fruit and vegetable market, but when he looked at the coordinates, he remembered that the merchant who sold melons and fruits was in Luoyang, and this is Chang'an.

Playing for too long and getting a little dizzy.

In the market of Chang'an, players are like clouds, after all, many novice players are coming to Chang'an for the first time, and they must be crazy to buy all kinds of nine-product goods on the market.

In front of the stalls of melon and fruit merchants, there are even more crowds.

"It seems that everyone knows the plot of Liu Quan's entry into the melon, and they are preparing in advance." Li Wei said with a smile.

I really don't know how the system sets up this main quest.

After all, Liu Quan is only one person, and he just brought a pumpkin in the plot, so many players, how can they participate?

Li Wei bought some Jiupin melons and fruits, including Jiupin melon and fruit seeds that could be seen.

However, things that everyone can buy are probably not much help for the main quest.

By the way, the pumpkin we eat today was only brought from the Americas in the Ming Dynasty, and before that, "pumpkin" was another variety native to China.

So don't study what the Western Halloween wearing pumpkin head and lighting pumpkin lanterns has to do with Liu Quan going to the underworld with a pumpkin.

And in many folk treasure scrolls, there are watermelons and pumpkins, and some people say that because Liu Quan sent the pumpkins to the underworld, there are no more watermelons in the world......

Li Wei returned to Luoyang City and found the melon and fruit merchant.

"Want a better pumpkin? I've grown it before, and I've sold it a long time ago, and I have a seed here that might make a better pumpkin, but it will take a long time. The melon and fruit merchant said.

"Sell it to me first." Li Wei also knew that his friendship with this businessman was very shallow, and he was not a celebrity, so he would not come up with too good things.

Bought a pumpkin seed at a high price, seven pins.

In any case, it is stronger than the pumpkins you can see on the market.

Li Wei usually visits auction houses, and he doesn't seem to have seen pumpkins or seeds above eight grades.

Including other plant seeds, only Li Wei himself had obtained the seven grades in the dungeon.

At present, only a very small number of lucky players can make eight-grade things, so it is difficult to have seven-grade rewards in career tasks, such as Danfang, drawings, and paintings.

Li Wei immediately returned to the manor, ready to plant this kind of seed.

"No, in the past, it took a few days for higher-grade seeds to mature." Li Wei stopped at the edge of the vegetable garden.

The task of Taizong's entry into the underworld will not drag on for long, and the plot of Liu Quan's entry into the melon is coming soon.

How can I shorten the time?

Li Wei took out the Nine Heavens Immortal Pillow and hesitated.

I was sucked into the Immortal Pillow by Bao Zheng before, and accidentally found that in the world of the Immortal Pillow, the duration and cooldown time of the skill were greatly shortened, which showed that in some ways, the time flow rate in the pillow was much faster.

Decades have passed since the work of a meal outside and inside the pillow, which is exactly the setting of Huangliang Dream.

However, when dealing with NPCs, the time ratio is reversed, and this is where the Wandering Pillow is magical.

When he was unsuccessful in looking for the secret realm on the forum, Li Wei thought about whether to enter the Nine Heavens Immortal Pillow to practice the copying technique, but he felt a little reluctant.

Youxian Pillow has the opportunity to use it once a day, and if you use it well, you can kill a big boss and open up a nightmare copy. (To be continued.) )
