It's just that the great gods have calculated everything, but I am afraid that they did not calculate that there would be a visitor from outside the heavens who would leak the heavenly secrets to the monkey in advance before the arrival of the scripture learner......

In the world of Liaozhai, Gu Ming generally does not leak the secret of heaven unless there are special circumstances.

But in the world of Journey to the West, he is not afraid.

After all, he didn't belong to this world in the first place, and he had a feeling of jumping out of the Three Realms and not being in the Five Elements.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for a group of great gods to try to manipulate his fate.

To put it simply, Gu Ming is not afraid that the great gods will secretly yin him, but he is afraid of using strength to face to face.

As long as you keep a low profile, it's generally not a big problem.

So, after Gu Ming pondered for a while, he said to Sun Wukong: "Great Sage, don't worry, and listen slowly......

However, what I will tell you next will involve some heavenly opportunities, and remember not to talk about it to the second person. ”

"Oh?" Sun Wukong's eyes lit up, and he said hurriedly: "Quick, tell my grandson about it." ”

"Well...... this"

Gu Ming pretended to groan.

Sun Wukong was anxious: "Hey, why are you mother-in-law...... Okay, my grandson swears that I will never talk about ...... second person."

A mortal swears is tantamount to a fart.

But at the level of Sun Wukong, swearing is not a joke.

Gu Ming was waiting for this sentence.

So with a whole face, he said slowly: "After deducing the heavenly machine, in less than twenty years, there will be a monk who will go to the west to learn scriptures."

Although he is a mortal, he can easily open the seal of this Marble Mountain.

When the time comes, you will be able to get out of trouble......"

"Monk?"

As soon as he heard the word monk, Sun Wukong was obviously a little unhappy, because it reminded him of Rulai who suppressed him under the Five Elements Mountain.

"That's right, that's your only chance to get out. Otherwise, I don't know how many years I will be crushed under this mountain. ”

Hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help frowning: "Are you sure the result of the deduction is correct?" ”

"Eight or nine is not far from ten!"

Gu Ming still kept a hand, what if the situation changed?

After all, he came to this world like a small lever with a gentle prie...... Future development will inevitably undergo some subtle changes as a result.

"Okay, when my grandson comes out, I'll go to the west to find the old man to settle the account!"

"Great Sage, you'd better stop first, your strength alone can't fight them."

"Hmph, what's there to be afraid of? I think back then, my old grandson made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals couldn't help my old grandson ......"

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of the mountain pressed on his body, and his words changed: "Although he is pressed under the Five Elements Mountain now, it is only the old grandson's carelessness that he will catch the way of the old man." ”

"I know that the Great Sage is very strong, but there are so many Dharma Treasures of this Heavenly God that I am afraid that the strength of the Great Sage alone will not be able to compete with it."

"Yes...... But this bird is so angry that my grandson can't swallow it! ”

"Great sage, as the old saying goes, there are clouds, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will urge it.

The same is true of people, who are easy to fold when they are rigid.

Taoism has clouds, good as water, water is good for all things without fighting, and everyone is evil, so it is more than the Tao......

Confucianism also has a similar concept, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness have not yet occurred, which is said to be in the middle. It is said to be the sum of the middle sections. Those who are in the middle are also the great capital of the world.

Those who are harmonious are also the way of the world. To neutralize, heaven and all things are nurtured......

Buddhism also has the saying of seeing through, letting go, and being at ease, and the heart is like a mirror......"

Poor Wukong listened to Gu Ming talk endlessly, alternately talking about the theories of Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, and the whole person was a little bad.

Fortunately, Gu Ming finally stopped talking and summed up the theory just now in a simple sentence.

"Great Sage, in a nutshell, take a step back and open the sky, and endure the calm for a while."

"Take a step back and open the sky and endure the calm for a while?"

Sun Wukong muttered a sentence repeated, with a pensive look.

"That's right, you must learn to judge the situation, not be brave in the moment.

The current situation is not good for the Great Sage, if you go to make a big fuss again, it will not be as simple as suppressing it for five hundred years.

I know that the Great Sage is unwilling to be manipulated, but with your talent, your ability, and your strength, even if you want to go back to Huaguo Mountain and be a mountain king, it is impossible.

Going to the West Heaven to learn scriptures is actually a good thing for you, and you can accumulate a lot of merit, strength, and prestige.

When the time comes, you can do what you want to do, and others will not be able to interfere with you......"

"Huh? Does that seem reasonable? ”

Sun Wukong finally opened up a little.

Of course, this is also due to Gu Ming's export chapter, even if he is as strong as Sun Wukong, he will be more or less affected.

Gu Ming smiled and said: "At least, the first advantage of learning from the scriptures is that you can no longer be pressed by this Five Elements Mountain, although you will still lose some freedom, but it is much better than now." ”

"Well, that makes sense......"

Gu Ming's face turned pale: "Okay, this topic will end here, remember not to talk about it to anyone." ”

"Don't worry, my grandson has already sworn an oath, so I will never tell the second person."

"That's good...... By the way, I brought a lot of food and drinks, why don't we have a few drinks? ”

"Hahaha, good, very good!"

As soon as he heard that there was wine and food, Sun Wukong suddenly let out saliva.

After all, in the past few hundred years, although villagers have often sent him food, almost all of them are wild fruits, mountain spring water, and the like......

Gu Ming's mind moved, and he took out a jar of wine, as well as roast chicken, beef, smoked duck, etc., and the pungent fragrance made Sun Wukong's saliva flow, and urged vigorously: "Quick, hurry up and give Lao Sun a chicken leg." ”

Although his body was pressed by the Five Elements Mountain and he couldn't move, his head and hands were exposed, and eating was still not a problem.

"Haha, the great sage is not in a hurry, there are chicken legs!"

This time when he came to Journey to the West, Gu Ming prepared a lot of wine and delicacies.

These drinks and dishes can be stored in a carry-on package for at least half a year without deterioration or taste.

In fact, when Gu Ming is in the current realm, he can completely do Bigu.

However, even immortals can hardly resist the delicacies of the world, not to mention that Gu Ming has cultivated all the way from the people.

I'm used to good wine and food, so if I have the conditions, I will naturally bring more with me, and it's not a pleasure to have a few drinks if I don't have anything to do.

After a few glasses of wine, the monkey began to reveal his true feelings, chattering non-stop......

Gu Ming didn't interrupt him, and quietly played the role of the audience.

I don't know how long I spoke, Sun Wukong's voice began to become erratic, until it ...... Snoring?

This guy actually fell asleep?

Gu Ming shook his head speechlessly, and subconsciously looked around, and the sky was dark for some time.

After that, Gu Ming did not leave this place, chatting and drinking with Sun Wukong every day, and telling him the Tao Te Ching, Nanhua Jing, Zhou Yi, Rites, Mencius, and the Mean......

This is done on purpose.

Learning scriptures from the West is a big game of chess, and it is also a game between the gods who are high above.

To put it simply, it is a struggle between different factions for territory, incense, and resources......

It's pretty much the same as fighting wars between countries.

And Sun Wukong's master and apprentice, including Bailongma, are all chess pieces in the chess game.

It is impossible for Gu Ming to stop it, and he has no ability to stop it, but he can quietly change the person who learns the scriptures subtly.

Including Tang Seng, he will also find an opportunity to brainwash this pedantic guy in the future.

Before you know it, a month has passed.

In the afternoon of that day, a couple stumbled over, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and crying and begging: "Grandpa Sage, please save our children......"

Sun Wukong asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with your children?" ”

"Our maid and a few children in the village were taken away."

"Arrested? Who caught it? ”

"It's someone sent by the river god...... We know that Grandpa Dasheng can't leave, but we really have no choice, and we ask Grandpa Dasheng to help me think about it, woo woo woo ......"

The woman's liver and intestines were broken from crying, and she almost fainted and fell to the ground.

Yaya?

Gu Ming was sitting cross-legged on a nearby boulder to breathe, and when he heard the name Yaya, he couldn't help but think of a cute little face in his mind.

So the thought moved, and immediately flashed in front of the couple.

"Don't worry, what's going on?"

As soon as the couple saw Gu Ming appear, they hurriedly kowtowed.

Although they hadn't seen Gu Ming, Yaya had been here several times, and after she went back, she said that there was a big brother who accompanied Grandpa Dasheng every day.

"Immortal Master, please save Yaya, save the children in the village......"

"Great Sage, I'll go to the village first."

Gu Ming didn't bother to ask any more questions, and called the couple to hurriedly walk towards the village together.

When I arrived in the village, I found out what happened.

It's a bit complicated to say......

Three years ago, the villagers unanimously decided to expel a scum named Alu from the village, who could not return for the rest of his life.

This Alu has been lazy since he was a child, often doing things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and he is still very arrogant.

For this reason, I was angry with my father and mother.

As a result, this guy still did not repent, but intensified.

I never cook on weekdays, and when I get to the meal, I go door to door, and I sit down cheekily and uninvited to see who has good food and drink, and I can't drive away.

That's fine, everyone can bear with it.

The key is that this guy is quite shameless, and he often peeks at the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the village taking baths and changing clothes...... Or even a thatched house.

One night, he forcibly rushed in while a little daughter-in-law was taking a bath.

This guy knows that the little daughter-in-law has always been timid, and the man happens to be away from home, so he may have a chance to succeed.

It's a pity that God has eyes, and the man of the little daughter-in-law came back at night......

After the incident broke out, the anger of the villagers finally broke out, and they beat Alu violently, and the village chief took the initiative to drive him out of the village, breaking his leg if he dared to return.

After wandering outside for a while, this guy actually climbed into a high-ranking family for some reason and joined a large family in Liujia Village.

Although the wife he married was a widow and ten years older than him, she was rich in the family, and she was one of the richest families within a radius of tens of miles.

From then on, Alu trembled, and ran back to the village with a few family members to try to be imposing.

As a result, he was driven away by a group of villagers with hoes and flat poles.

However, the hatred in this guy's heart has not been extinguished, and he has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge.

As a result, I really waited for the opportunity.

There is a river temple near Liujia Village that has been abandoned for many years, and it is almost about to collapse.

One night, the village chief had a dream in which a man who claimed to be the god of the river was furious and said that he would bring disaster to the villagers in order to punish the villagers for not offering incense for many years.

The village chief begged bitterly, saying that he must repair the river temple and offer incense and three animals, and the river god gave up.

After waking up from the dream, the village chief was sweating profusely.

As soon as the morning dawned, he summoned the villagers to tell them about the dream of last night, and asked each family to raise funds to renovate the river temple so as not to invite unforeseen disasters.

At first, some of the villagers were skeptical, thinking that it was just a dream, so many villagers did not have a positive attitude.

But I never expected that a few days later, the river god would come to the village in his true form, and the frightened people knelt down and kowtowed, saying that they would do their best to repair the river temple and ensure that the incense continued.

Soon after, the temple was renovated and the villagers took turns offering incense.

When the people of the nearby villages heard about this, they also came to the river temple to offer incense and make wishes.

As a result, the incense of the river temple can be said to be more and more prosperous day by day.

However, the river god was not satisfied with this.

On this day, once again revealed that the incense had been broken for many years, and as a punishment, the people had to sacrifice five pairs of boys and girls, otherwise disasters would still fall.

At this moment, the villagers of Liujia Village suddenly panicked.

After all, who is willing to sacrifice their children?

Only one person was overjoyed...... It's Alou, who has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge.

This guy ran to the river temple with a strong stomach to show his loyalty, saying that he was willing to be a slave of the river god and let him be punished, only hoping that the river god could give him some strength, and the affairs of virgins and girls were wrapped up in him.

As a result, the river god really gave Alu some strength......

With that, Alu shuddered again and launched a frenzied revenge.

"Immortal Master, that guy relies on the power given by the river god, and we are not his opponent at all......"

"How many children in the village did he take?"

Gu Ming asked with a gloomy face.

"Eight ......"

"Don't worry, I will definitely save these children!"

Gu Ming inquired about the direction of Liujiazhuang, and then quickly rushed over.

By this time, it was already getting dark.

Not far from Liujia Village, there are almost three or four hundred villagers gathered on the river beach in front of the river temple.

Hundreds of candles and more than 100 torches are lit along the river, illuminating the night sky as if it were day.

Five pairs of boys and girls knelt by the river with their hands tied behind their backs, whimpering and crying in horror......

The youngest of them was only six years old, and the oldest was twelve.

Yaya was also among them, crying so much that her eyes were red and swollen, and she kept calling her father, grandfather, and brother.

"Crying for what? To be chosen to sacrifice to the river god is a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous lives......"

Alu shouted with a majestic look, followed by a few henchmen.

In fact, before this, he was only in front of people, and he had no status at home, and he was often called by his wife, like a dog.

But now it's different, and he's finally turned over.

Although he is still a dog, he is the dog of the river god, and even the village chief is respectful to him, for fear of offending him and then annoying the river god.

The sacrifice ceremony was also presided over by Alu, and the village chief and the villagers fully cooperated.

This also greatly satisfied Alu's vanity, and at the same time, eight of the ten children sacrificed this time were from the previous village, which also made him somewhat angry.

After a while, seeing a whirlpool the size of a round table rising on the surface of the river, Alu couldn't help but exclaim: "Okay, the hour has come, come, throw these five pairs of boys and girls into the river to sacrifice to the river god!" ”

"Yes!"

Several of his men responded in unison.

"Don't, don't throw me into the river......"

"Daddy, save me......"

"Mother......

"Grandpa Great Sage's ...... for help"

For a while, the mournful cries of ten children sounded in the night sky, begging for mercy.

The people couldn't help but sigh to themselves.

However, they simply did not have the courage to stand up and stop it, otherwise they would be against the river god.

"Don't throw it, don't throw it, Grandpa Sage, big brother, Yaya doesn't want to die, Yaya doesn't want to die......"

The poor maid kicked her legs desperately and cried out hoarsely.

But, after all, she is only in her teens, and her hands are tied, how can she break free?

In the end, the small body was ruthlessly thrown into the whirlpool in the river......

"Hahaha!"

At the same time, Alu's wild laughter echoed in the night sky.

"Woo~Woo~"

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in.

Seeing that the girl who was about to fall into the water, and the other two children were swept up by the wind and flew to the shore.

At the same time, the rest of the children were swept into the air by the wind and slowly flew out of the crowd.

"What's going on?"

Alou was taken aback.

"Huh?"

At the same time, a dark shadow at the bottom of the river also frowned, and then surfaced......

"Lord River God has appeared!"

"Lord River God!"

"Lord River God, it's none of our business......"

The crowd was so frightened that they knelt down.

It's really none of their business, because this strange wind was summoned by Gu Ming.

He had been there for a short time, and he had been observing the origin of this so-called river god.

As expected, it turned out to be a monster.

Generally speaking, the river gods, the land gods, the mountain gods, and the like all belong to the gods of the nether realm, and although their status is low, they are also immortals, so how can they do things that let the people sacrifice virgins?

The big deal is to let the people sacrifice incense, three animals, and so on.

Only those bloodthirsty demons could have done such a heavenly thing.

However, how could ordinary people know the rules of the Heavenly Court?

Many monsters take advantage of the ignorance of the people, pretending to be gods to deceive and fool the people.

"Who is it? Who...... Who's messing around? There's a kind of standing up! ”

Seeing the river god appear, Alu was bold and shouted.

As soon as the words fell, the whole person suddenly became light, as if someone had choked his neck, his feet hung in the air, his face became purple, his hands danced wildly, his legs kicked desperately, and he couldn't speak.

"Bold!"

The river demon pretending to be the river god couldn't help but shout angrily, and his body rose into the air, and the void reached out and grabbed it to recapture Alu.

It doesn't care about Alu's life, it's mainly about face and prestige.

If this cleans up Alu in front of it, won't it, the "river god", lose its majesty in the hearts of the people?

As a result, this grasp failed.

"Boom~"

Alu's body suddenly fell at lightning speed, and in the blink of an eye, he was planted in the riverbank.

That's right, it's planting, not falling.

The whole person sank into the river beach like a stump, leaving only a top of his head.

"Demon, don't show up quickly!"

In the night sky, a majestic shout sounded.

Now, the river demon finally knew that he had met an opponent......

As the so-called good demon does not suffer immediate losses, slipping away is the best policy.

So, the river demon turned and fled, trying to escape into the river.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a streamer flew and hit its body accurately.

"Ah~"

With a scream, the body of the river demon suddenly disappeared, and the next moment, there was a mass of half-human, half-fish monsters on the river beach.

This is not some kind of mermaid.

It's a strange-looking fish demon with an upper body like a fish and a human lower body.

"Whew!"

After revealing its original form, the fish demon remained unyielding and desperately tried to escape back into the river.

After all, on the shore, its strength will be greatly reduced.

In fact, even if it was allowed to escape back into the river, Gu Ming could easily solve it, after all, he also knew how to control water.

Especially after stepping into the realm of true immortals, the control of various natural elements is even more handy, how can a mere little river demon escape his palm?

However, Gu Ming was lazy, and his figure stopped in front of the fish demon in a flash, and then he raised his hand, and a ray of light shrouded him.

"Extinguish!"

"Immortals spare their lives, immortals spare their lives!"

The fish demon was so frightened that he begged for mercy.

It's a pity that it's too late to beg for mercy now, if you just show up and see the opportunity to beg for mercy, maybe there is a glimmer of hope for survival.

Gu Ming is not Tang Seng.

And he has his own judgment, and it is almost impossible for a naturally bloodthirsty demon like this to repent.

If you spare it this time, it won't be long before you go to another place to hurt people.

So, the best way is to do it.

Under the golden light, the fish demon's cry became weaker and weaker.

It didn't take long for the figure to dissipate as a wisp of smoke.

At this time, the people finally came back to their senses, and quickly kowtowed one by one: "Thank you to the immortals, thank you to the immortals!" ”

Gu Ming said lightly: "In the future, don't be deceived by these monsters anymore, let's disperse." ”

"Thank you to the immortals, thank you to the immortals......"

Soon after, Gu Ming returned to the village with the eight children who had been taken captive.

"My child ......"

"Daddy, mother, woo woo woo ......"

"Great, the kids are back......"

For a time, the village was boiling, joys and sorrows, all at this time.

"Thank you, big brother......"

After crying for a while, Yaya wiped her tears and ran to Gu Ming to thank her sweetly.

"Silly girl, kneel down, this is the immortal...... The immortals are not strange, the child is not sensible......"

"Hehe, it's okay, this girl is quite well-behaved."

Gu Ming lovingly stretched out his hand and patted Yaya's head.

"Hehe, big brother is so powerful, he got rid of the monster in one go."

This girl is really heartless, she was so frightened that she actually forgot to laugh happily.

Back on the side of the mountain, Gu Ming told the story from beginning to end.

Sun Wukong couldn't help sighing: "It's okay...... Speaking of which, Yaya, this little girl is indeed very well-behaved, and her mouth is also sweet, and she began to give food to her grandson when she was three years old.

When I have the opportunity, my grandson will definitely give her a peach to eat......"

At the mention of the peach, Gu Ming couldn't help but move in his heart.

This thing is a good thing, not only can it prolong life, but it can also improve cultivation.

The reason why Sun Wukong is so powerful is largely due to the fact that he stole a lot of peaches and golden pills.

So, Gu Ming pretended to say: "I heard that there are three kinds of peaches of the Queen Mother, there are three thousand years of ripe, six thousand years of one ripe, and nine thousand years of ......."

"That's right, this old grandson knows best, I think my old grandson was responsible for guarding the Pantaoyuan back then......"

Speaking of this, Sun Wukong seemed to feel that this was not something to show off, and said with a change of words: "In short, that peach is a good thing, and ordinary gods can't eat it at all."

Not to mention the 6,000 and 9,000 years, even if the three thousand years are ripe, mortals may become immortals after eating them. ”

"Isn't that amazing...... It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to taste the delicacy of the peaches. ”

As soon as he heard this, Sun Wukong's mistake of liking to brag was committed again, and he said in a big tone: "What's so difficult about eating peaches?" After my grandson gets out of trouble, I will definitely find an opportunity to pick a bunch for you to eat. ”

"This ...... Not quite right? What if someone catches me? ”

Gu Ming said pretendly.

"Don't worry, with my grandson's ability, it is impossible for those fairies watching the garden to find out."

"Hahaha, that's great, so I'll thank the great sage first."

Sun Wukong waved his hand with a big grin: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, you have invited my grandson to drink wine for so long, and my grandson should send you some peaches." ”

This is said so grandly, as if Pan Taoyuan is not the queen mother's, but his Monkey King's......

……
