Zhu Bajie's two arms were broken by the Bodhisattva's golden light rope, although his complexion improved a little after eating the elixir that Sun Wukong didn't know where to get, but the broken bones could not grow well in a day or two.

In the past few days, Sha Seng has contracted the work of carrying the burden, although Zhu Bajie has always said that his body is very strong, and this little injury is not a problem at all, I still slowed down the speed of the westward journey.

However, Zhu Bajie was indeed not strong, and I was fortunate to see how strong the recovery ability of the big monster was, and in just seven days, Zhu Bajie's injury was almost healed.

Because he lost people in the four Bodhisattvas before, Zhu Bajie after healing was much more diligent, in addition to the work on weekdays, he also took the initiative to find food from time to time to find food and come back, saying that it is not worth washing his heart and changing his face, and the changes before and after are still obvious to all.

The four Bodhisattvas gave Zhu Bajie a blind date that was four months ago, after that time, although Zhu Bajie usually squeezed me all day long, but it was obvious that this pig's head respected me a lot, and it seemed that the heads I pleaded for him at that time were not in vain.

At my strong request, we didn't take shortcuts over the mountains throughout the winter, but kept walking along the main road. When it is fast, it can walk fifty or sixty miles a day, and when it is slow, it can not go twenty miles a day, and the twists and turns can be regarded as traveling five or six thousand miles to the west, although there are many unjust roads, but fortunately, the road is safe, and not even a beast and bandit have encountered one.

I guessed in my heart that now that I had walked more than 60,000 miles, I couldn't help but start to feel proud. Oh, what a hundred and eight thousand miles, I walked another five thousand miles casually, the West Heaven Great Leiyin Temple is just around the corner, at this time my heart is a little floating, and even began to fantasize about whether the monsters on the rest of the road to learn the scriptures have been deleted, and the road in the future may be so smooth sailing.

It coincides with the third spring, there is a pleasing spring scene everywhere, taking advantage of the weather and mood are good, we climbed to the top of this mountain along the mountain road in one breath, standing on the top of the mountain and looking west, only to see that there is a high mountain not far from the southwest, but this high mountain in front of us is completely different from other places.

Having traveled so many roads and passed through so many landscapes, even I, a monk with a mortal eye, could see that this mountain was not an ordinary place.

Looking up, the high mountain peaks were hidden in the surrounding clouds, and from time to time a few white cranes flew off and fell under the clouds, and the sound of apes and deer chirping could be faintly heard from the mountains.

I don't know exactly where this is, but I can see that the person who can live in this kind of place must be a god.

In fact, my way of distinguishing whether a place is good or bad is very simple, there are monkeys and deer such good beasts are definitely not bad places, and there are jackals, tigers and leopards such as fierce beasts are definitely not good places.

If we follow our current route, I can not go to the fairy mountain, go straight to the west at most through the foot of the mountain, but I have never seen such a fairy place along the way, I have a strong desire to go to the mountain for a walk, just give myself a vacation, spring travel.

I led the dragon horse and walked slowly down the mountain, jokingly said: "Wukong, I have come to the west, and I have experienced many mountains and rivers that are not as good as this mountain. ”

Sun Wukong, who opened the road in front, saw that I was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "It's early! It's early!

Zhu Bajie, who was walking behind Sun Wukong with a burden, also smiled: "Master dreams in the daytime. ”

The sand monk behind me asked, "Senior brother, how far is it to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West Heaven?"

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "108,000 miles, we only walked one point in ten miles!"

This monkey is really joking, I have walked more than 60,000 miles, and half of the 108,000 miles have already passed.

Zhu Bajie said: "Brother, how many years will it take to get it?"

Sun Wukong thought for a while and said: "These roads, if you talk about the two virtuous brothers, you can also arrive in ten days, if you talk about me walking, it is easy to walk fifty times a day, and you can see the sun, but if the master goes, don't think about it, I can't count the years!"

Sha Seng said: "Senior brother, although it is not the thunder sound of the West Heaven here, there are also masters here when you look at this scenery. ”

Sun Wukong nodded and smiled: "There is absolutely no evil here, it must be a hometown of holy monks and immortals, we can play slowly." ”

Although he was talking and laughing, I remembered that when Sun Wukong talked about how long I could walk to the west just now, there was no smile on his hairy face, and Sun Wukong didn't seem to be joking when he said that.

Yes, you have somersault clouds, it's not a problem to walk dozens of times a day, the pig's head and the sand monk will soar into the clouds, and they can fly in ten days, how can I get to me even if I can't get there one day?

The first half of the 108,000 miles have walked more than 60,000 miles, and I have only walked for less than two and a half years since I left Chang'an, and the rest of the road is assumed to be the same as the previous time, and I will be able to go to the west in three years at most.

What did Sun Wukong say just now, if he goes to the west and can walk fifty times a day, doesn't he often say that he can fly 108,000 miles in an instant, and the maximum time is three seconds, so I'll treat him as five seconds.

Ten seconds Sun Wukong's somersault cloud can fly out of two hundred and eight thousand miles, but Sun Wukong uses the fastest way to move the somersault cloud can only go fifty times throughout the day, that is, a hundred times a single trip, assuming that the distance from the west to Chang'an is exactly 108,000 miles, then with Sun Wukong's flight speed, it should only take 500 seconds to fly 100 times each way, that is, more than eight minutes, I will equal it to about ten minutes.

Suppose a day is ten hours, that's sixty times as many as eight minutes!

And what Sun Wukong said is still a straight line distance flying in the sky, I went to the West Heaven to walk in a curve of twists and turns on the ground, so calculated, how far is this from Tang Chang'an to the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple?

Elementary school math teacher Li, junior high school math teacher Qiao, high school math teacher, I'm sorry for you, I really can't figure it out.

At this time, my mind was already filled with all kinds of numbers, and the mood that I was originally preparing for the spring outing suddenly disappeared.

Sun Wukong has been with me for the longest time and knows me the best, so it can be said that he knows what I'm going to fart as soon as I pout my ass.

Seeing that I was suddenly silent, Sun Wukong turned back to me and smiled: "Master, but in his heart, how many miles is there to the western sky?"

I hummed and replied.

Zhu Bajie said: "Doesn't Master often talk about 108,000 miles, isn't it so far and near to go to the West Heaven?"

Sun Wukong said: "I don't know how many miles there is on the road of Xiaohan, and I don't know how many miles there is on the road on this earth!"

When I heard Sun Wukong say this, I couldn't help but ask: "When I was in Chang'an, Guanyin Bodhisattva left a simple post, which clearly stated that the journey was 108,000 miles, but now Wukong, you say that you don't know how many distances, why is this?"

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "Master was originally a smart person, why is he confused now." ”

What do you mean by that?

"Master, do you remember that after taking this idiot, we passed by Futu Mountain?"

I nodded. Of course, I remember that if I hadn't met Wuchao Zen Master in Futu Mountain, I wouldn't have gotten that multi-heart sutra.

"That day, in the Futu Mountain, the master asked Zen Master Wuchao, how far is there to go to the west, and does Master still remember how Zen Master Wuchao answered?"

I thought about it, I asked this question that day, and I asked it more than once, but I remember that Wuchao Zen Master didn't give me a definite answer, how did he say it? Oh yes, yes, he just said that it was far away, and he also said that he had to ask Sun Wukong, the old stone monkey, how to go.

"Well, even if you don't know how many miles, you know that you can walk fifty times a day, how can you not know when you can go here for the teacher?"

Sun Wukong thought for a while and said something that was completely inconsistent with his enlightenment.

"Master, you have grown old since you were a child, and no matter how young you are, it is still difficult to grow old and young. As long as you see the sincerity of your ambition and think about the place where you look back, it is Lingshan. ”

If this sentence is said by other Bodhisattva immortals, I will definitely praise people for their great enlightenment, and by the way, I will knock one to someone, but now such lofty words come out of this monkey's mouth, why don't I like to listen to it, don't pour me chicken soup for the soul, I will ask you how far away!

Sha Seng said: "Master, I have not been in Shamen for a long time, but I know that Buddhism's speech is mostly hidden words, and the Bodhisattva's 108,000 li may not mean how many miles there are, but means that the road is far away. ”

Sun Wukong smiled and said, "Senior Brother Sha has opened his mind before Master. ”

What do you mean, is the Bodhisattva's 108,000 miles not a statement but a metaphor?

Bodhisattva!

However, the Buddhist language is like this, and many numbers are not literal, but what does it mean when the Bodhisattva writes down the number 108,000?

Is 108,000 an amplified number?

One hundred and eight thousand, one thousand and eight hundred, one thousand and eighty, one hundred and eight, Liangshan heroes?

My mind was racing to think about what information in the Buddhist family was related to this set of numbers.

The number 1,080 is the most commonly contacted, and the 1,080 Buddha beads represent one hundred and eight afflictions in each of the ten worlds, totaling 1,008.

If you divide the 108,000 into ten and eight, then there are many things that can be associated, ten precepts, ten sects, ten good and evil, eight determinations, eight sufferings, and eight good and evil?

Eight auspicious, eight screens, and a horse coat...... No, no, no, no, I think about it......

The more I thought about it, the more chaotic it became, I couldn't think of a result for 108,000 miles, anyway, I knew, the journey to the West Heaven was far more than just 108,000 miles as I imagined, and my delusional idea that it would only take me five or six years to get the true scriptures might be really naïve.

Alas, why do you think about it so much, just learn from the Tang Seng in the story and just go forward, don't you already know that it will take more than ten years, obviously you have already known in advance that you can clear the customs after the difficulty of ninety-nine eighty-one, but I am entangled in this every day How far to go, I don't have a mobile phone now, I don't have a sports ranking on WeChat, and I don't have to collect energy to plant a shuttle tree, why care about how many steps I have taken.

Yes, why bother to care about how far away the western sky is, and the heart is far away from itself. Sun Wukong's words are really good, as long as I see the sincerity of my nature, I will look back at Lingshan.

The entanglement of 108,000 miles in my heart was put aside for the time being, and I smiled self-deprecatingly, why bother myself here. Pack up my mood again, I don't want to think about anything else, what I should be thinking about now is how to have a good time with my apprentices in the beautiful scenery of this fairy mountain.

Just now, when I was thinking wildly, I had unconsciously walked into this immortal mountain. Looking ahead, I saw a pavilion standing in the lush mountains and forests in the distance.

I looked at the building in the distance, thinking that this must be the immortal mansion that lives here, and I don't know which immortal I will meet here.

I looked at the living telescope next to me and asked, "Wukong, look at what kind of place you are going to be." ”

Sun Wukong's fiery eyes flashed, and he said: "That's either Guanyu or the temple, Master, let's go faster, and we will know the end when we get there." ”

Zhu Bajie said: "Exactly, whether it is a temple or a temple, we can only go to ask for a bowl of rice when we take it out." ”

Yes, this is what Zhu Bajie should look like, he thinks about eating first wherever he goes.

It didn't take long for me to get closer and take a look, and it was really a Taoist temple. I got off the horse in front of the mountain gate, and saw a stele on the left side of the mountain gate, and there were ten big characters engraved on the stele.

"Wanshou Mountain blessed land, Wuzhuang view cave sky"!
