Chapter XVII. The beginning of the westward journey

Lu Zhi looked at the people who bowed down below, first saluted Tang Emperor Li Shimin to show respect for the human emperor, and then turned his gaze to Tang Seng.

"Xuanzang."

Hearing Lu Zhi call out to himself, Tang Seng was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly bowed respectfully and said: "Poor monk Xuanzang, meet Emperor Zhenwu, dare to ask what the emperor has to tell the poor monk?" ”

Lu Zhi said: "Xuanzang, your original body was originally the second disciple of Jin Chanzi under the seat of Western Rulai, but later because of neglect to preach the scriptures, he was relegated to the lower realm and experienced the horror of reincarnation. ”

"It's been the tenth generation so far, and the nine generations before you have made a great wish, willing to go to the Western Da Lei Yin Temple, seek the true scriptures, and purify the world... If you come to thank you for your sincerity, I will ask the Jade Emperor Datianzun for you to get a destiny to travel west to learn scriptures. ”

"Today, I came to the lower realm to spread the Great Heavenly Venerable's forgiveness and order you to go to the Western Spirit Mountain to obtain the true scriptures, are you willing?"

When Tang Seng heard this, his face couldn't help but show a touch of emotion, and he bowed down and said, "The disciple is willing to go!" ”

The fear of leaving Sun on the side was slightly stagnant, and the mission that originally guided Tang Seng should have been his.

After all, he has been planning in the West for so many years, and he has only contributed to the merit of this westward journey, and Heavenly Court and Lu Zhi have not made any great efforts from it, but now they want to give Lu Zhi the merit of guiding Xuanzang to the west, so it is strange that he is in a good mood.

But this is also something that can't be helped, after all, although they are said to have their own system in the West, but today's orthodoxy of heaven and earth is the Heavenly Court, and if they want to act in the West, they can't bypass the Heavenly Court.

Therefore, he was afraid of leaving Sun and simply didn't say anything more, but after mentioning Tang Seng a few words, he directly took Tuxing Sun into a golden rainbow and returned to Lingshan to give instructions.

And Lu Zhi didn't stay too long, and after nodding, he disappeared in front of everyone.

The vision of the sky gradually dissipated, Tang Seng got up, turned his head to Tang Emperor Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, today Xuanzang has been guided by Emperor Zhenwu and the Buddha who is afraid of Liusun, and has made up his mind to go to the Western Lingshan Mountain and the Great Leiyin Temple to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures, eliminate earthly disasters, and achieve some merits." ”

"So this water and land dojo, please ask Your Majesty to invite another monk, come and do it, Xuanzang will go west today."

After all, although he did not believe in the so-called Mahayana Buddhism, he could eliminate all the disasters and disputes in this world, but since this matter was jointly decided by the immortals and Buddhas, he naturally would not despise it.

Therefore, not only did he not pursue Tang Seng's decision to shirk the water and land dojo, but he was very supportive of Tang Seng's decision, not to mention sending horses and guards, but also forced Tang Seng to become a brother and gave him the title of 'royal brother'.

However, these have nothing to do with Lu Zhi, and his eyes at this moment have already turned to the arrangement of the westward journey.

The westward journey is approaching, and Lu Zhi also has to confirm it again, and he must make careful arrangements.

A few days later, Xuanzang finally got ready, set off in Chang'an, headed to the west, and gradually came to the mountain boundary of the two realms.

However, after arriving at the Two Realms Mountain, it no longer belongs to the human realm of the Southern Ganbu Continent, and Tang Seng and his party were also unlucky, so they stepped into the two realms of the mountain realm, and they actually encountered demons that did not belong to the human world...

The group fell into the hands of the demon unexpectedly, seeing that the demon in that hole had sharpened the butcher's knife and boiled the boiling water, he was about to disembowel everyone and reincarnate in the soup pot...

At this critical juncture, a golden-winged Dapeng eagle suddenly fell from the sky and fanned out a hurricane, instantly turning the demons in that hole into dust and ashes!

After casually eliminating the group of little demons, the Winged Immortal turned into a Taoist and fell into the field, raising his hand to point out the aura and untie the shackles on Tang Seng and the others, while saying.

"I am the winged immortal under the throne of the Emperor Zhenwu, and the emperor calculated that Master Xuanzang encountered a catastrophe, and sent me to rescue him."

The frightened Tang Seng breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him: "Thank you to this great immortal, thank you to Emperor Zhenwu, if you are one step late, the poor monk is afraid that his life will be suspended." ”

Feather Winged Immortal nodded at Tang Seng and said, "On this trip, the mage's journey to the West Heavenly Spirit Mountain is indispensable for disasters and dangers. ”

"But the mage doesn't have to worry too much, in the mountains of these two realms, suppressing a divine monkey who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace back then, if the mage can save him from trouble and accept him as a disciple, he can ensure that the mage has no worries all the way."

After saying that, the Feather Winged Immortal turned his head to look at the two Tang Dynasty soldiers who were sent to protect Tang Seng, and said: "After these two realm mountains, it is no longer the realm of the world, and it is not something that ordinary people like you can set foot in." ”

"You two, let's go back, if the Tang Emperor asks, it will be the emperor's will."

Feathered Fairy explained to the two, and ignored the reactions of the two, and with a wave of his hand, a spell flew out and sent it to them, and then a gust of wind was fanned, and the two of them flew back the same way. With the sigil spell given by Lu Zhi, it was enough for them to go and hand over to Li Shimin.

In the original work, Tang Seng and several people were in distress in the Two Realms Mountain, and these two guards became food in the mouths of the monsters, but this time they were lucky enough to escape with their lives.

In addition, the Tai Bai Xing who came to help Tang Seng relieve the siege in the original book will naturally not appear again this time, after all, Lu Zhi wants to take advantage of the merits and luck of this westward journey to become enlightened, and of course the Jade Emperor strongly supports it, so he simply handed over all the affairs of the Heavenly Court in this westward journey to him to deal with.

The winged fairy came in a hurry, hurried away, appeared to destroy the demons, and after saving Tang Seng, he left quickly, which made Tang Seng a little pity.

If he could get the help of this Dharma Protector under the throne of the True Martial Emperor, why would he go to find the divine monkey who was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace.

However, the winged fairy has left, and the two guards have also been sent away, leaving only Tang Seng alone and a horse, in desperation, Tang Seng can only go on the road alone, hoping that the monkey in the mouth of the winged fairy is really destined for him, can save the monkey out, and have him to protect him, all the way west.

Tang Seng didn't know, just after he left, a middle-aged man dressed as a hunter walked out of the mountains and forests on the side with an ugly expression, looked at the direction of the winged fairy's departure, and secretly gritted his teeth.

"I didn't expect to be preempted by that Zhenwu this time, but now that Xuanzang knows the location of the Monkey King, I can also go back to Lingshan to give the decree."

I saw that the Orion gently raised his hand and made a move into the mountains and forests behind him, and a colorful tiger jumped out of the mountains and forests in an instant, and the Orion was even more golden and turned into a mighty Tiger Arhat!

On the other side, after walking in the mountains and forests for a day and a night, Tang Seng finally walked out of the sea of trees and mountains and forests, and officially walked out of the junction of Nanganbuzhou and Xiniuhe Zhou.

Tang Seng rode on horseback and looked into the distance, only to see that the road ahead had been roughly smoothed out, and a strange-shaped mountain shaped like a raised palm also appeared in his eyes in an instant.

Marble Mountains!

Tang Seng instantly recalled the Five Elements Mountain and the Divine Monkey that the Winged Immortal had told him before.

On the other side, at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, a dwarf was talking to Sun Wukong.

"Sun Wukong, your master has arrived, this time you must sincerely repent and protect Xuanzang to the west, otherwise, I will suppress you again under this Five Elements Mountain for eternity!"

Sun Wukong lowered his head and said in a low voice: "My old grandson knows...."

He verbally agreed, but the pair of golden eyes that drooped down were full of anger and resentment!

Unlike in the original book, this time the West did not have the Guanyin Bodhisattva with great powers and means to appease the domesticated Sun Wukong, but sent the Tuxing Sun master and apprentice to take charge of this matter.

But the fear of leaving Sun is also a person whose eyes are higher than the top, and he didn't put Sun Wukong, a monkey, in his eyes at all, but just sent Tuxing Sun to subdue Sun Wukong.

And what kind of virtue is Tuxingsun? What kind of virtue is Monkey King?

Tuxing Sun was arrogant, only thinking that Sun Wukong was already a chess piece in their hands in the West, and no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't jump out of their palms.

But he forgot, he is not like this! There is no supreme power to suppress Sun Wukong!

And who is Monkey King? A dwarf who is sparsely cultivated and annoying to see is so villain in front of him, he naturally can't bear it, so he immediately blew up his hair and ridiculed each other.

And the result of his doing so was that Tu Xingsun, who was annoyed and angry, was humiliated and whipped several times in his face.

Although with Tuxing Sun's cultivation, those whips could not break his King Kong incorruptible body at all, but that sense of humiliation still made Sun Wukong only feel a hot pain on his face.

But in the past 500 years, after thinking about the past, he has also learned a lot, and after suffering hardships, he no longer works against Tuxingsun, and even admits his mistakes... Tuxingsun really believed it...
