Chapter 774: Li Qinghua Butler, Four Saints Test Zen Heart!(4)
I saw this house, the door hangs down and the cypress house leans against the green hills, and the mud walls are brick-built around the yuan. There is a stone bridge flowing water in front of the door, and the shore next to the bridge is purple and red.
It can be said that the wild chrysanthemum on the edge of the fence is frosty, and the orchid on the bridge reflects the water dan.
Tang Sanzang was stopping to watch, but saw Sun Wukong carrying the old man on his back, Sha Seng leading the dragon horse, and Zhu Bajie approaching with a nail rake.
Tang Sanzang immediately rejoiced: "Apprentice, look, there is a village in front of us, but we just happened to go to spend the night. ”
After hearing this, Sun Wukong hurriedly raised his head and looked up, and really saw that there was a luxurious mansion built against the mountain in front of him.
After seeing this mansion, Sun Wukong subconsciously looked at it with fiery eyes.
At that moment, I saw that the gatehouse in front of the house exuded a cloudy atmosphere, and the sky above the house was shrouded in clouds, and the sky was covered by clouds.
After seeing this scene, Sun Wukong squinted his eyes and said secretly: "Could it be that this is really the residence of the immortal family?"
Just as he thought of this, he only heard the old man on his back laugh and said, "Elders, ahead is the mansion of the old decrepit master!"
When Sun Wukong heard this, his heart moved, and he secretly thought that he had misunderstood this old man this time.
At this time, Zhu Bajie led the horse and sighed: "This family is really a rich family." After saying that, he was about to pass, Tang Sanzang immediately stretched out his hand to stop him, and said: "Eight precepts are not allowed, you and I are monks, each avoid some suspicions, and do not trespass." and wait for someone to come out and ask for lodging with courtesy. ”
As soon as Tang Sanzang's words fell, he heard the old man on Sun Wukong's back laugh and said: "The elder doesn't need to be so polite, this little elder will carry the old man on his back, you can just keep up!"
Before Tang Sanzang could respond, Sun Wukong had already walked towards the gatehouse with the old man on his back.
Seeing this, Tang Sanzang could only sigh, then shook his head and followed. Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng followed his pace closely, leading the horse and walking slowly.
After walking through the archway, Sun Wukong pushed open the two vermilion doors with the old man on his back, and then looked towards the door, only to see that there were three halls facing south in the courtyard. In the main stop, a screen door is placed, and a horizontal painting of Shoushan Fuhai is hung on it. On the gold lacquer pillars on both sides, there is a spring couplet on big red paper, which reads: "The silk is weak and the willow bridge is late, and the snow is fragrant and the plum courtyard is spring." In the middle, there is a faded black lacquered incense table, and a bronze beast furnace is placed on it. There are six chairs, and the four seasons hanging screens are hung on the two hills.
A few people were looking at the room, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind the screen door.
The next moment, a half-aged woman came out from behind the screen door.
The master and apprentice looked up, and saw that the old woman was wearing a gold-woven green silk jacket covered with a light red armor, and a colorful goose yellow brocade skirt with high-soled flower shoes reflected underneath. The time is like a bun and soap yarn, contrasting with two-color disc dragon hair, and the palace-like tooth comb is Zhu Cuihuang, and two strands of red gold hairpin are obliquely held. The cloud sideburns are half flying phoenix wings, and the earrings are double pendant beads. The fat powder is still beautiful, and the romance is still like a young talent.
After seeing this old woman like this, Zhu Bajie's eyes immediately widened, and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.
At the same time, when the old woman saw the master and apprentice, she asked, "Who are you waiting for to trespass into my widow's door?"
When Sun Wukong heard this, he directly used his fiery eyes.
Immediately, a vast golden light rushed into his eyes, and he hurriedly closed his eyes in a panic.
And at the same time, when he heard the old woman's words, he panicked and said in a panic: "The little monk is from the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Territory, and he is ordered to worship the Buddha in the West and ask for scriptures." A group of four, passing by the treasure side, it was late, and they went to the old Bodhisattva Tanfu to borrow a night. ”
When Tang Sanzang's words fell, the old man on Sun Wukong's back spoke: "The master's family, when the old slave went up the mountain to pick up firewood, he didn't want to break his foot, and the pain was unbearable so he had to sit against the tree, thanks to these elders who sent the old slave back!"
When the old woman heard this, she nodded slightly, and after seeing each other with a smile on her face, she invited the four masters and apprentices into the main hall and sat down. The old man transformed into Li Qing was supported by a girl to go to the wing room to bandage.
In the main hall, there is another girl with a silk bun, holding a gold plate and a white jade cup, passing tea and serving. Bow to them one by one. When the tea was finished, the old woman ordered the fasting again.
Tang Sanzang immediately raised his hand and asked, "Dare to ask the old Bodhisattva's surname, what is the name of your place?"
The old woman sat on the throne on crutches, and when she heard this, she sighed and replied, "This is the land of Xiniu Hezhou. The little woman's maiden name is Jia, and her husband's surname is Mo. Unfortunately at an early age, her aunt died early, and she and her husband inherited the ancestral business, and they had thousands of family assets and thousands of acres of fertile land. It's a pity that my husband and wife had no children in their lives, and only gave birth to three girls. The year before last, she unfortunately lost her husband, and the little woman was widowed, and she was full of service this year (until the expiration of the three-year filial piety period). left behind the land and family business, and there was no one in the family. It's just my daughters who take it. If you want to marry someone else, it is difficult to give up your family business. The elders descended, thinking that it was the master and the apprentice. There are four little women and girls, who want to sit on the mountain to recruit husbands, and the four of them are just right, I don't know if they are willing to stay?"
Tang Sanzang's face changed slightly when he heard this, and then he pushed his deaf makeup and dumbness, and his eyes were calm, no matter how many benefits the old woman promised, he didn't answer.
When the old woman saw this, she sneered: "There are more than 300 hectares of paddy fields, more than 300 hectares of dry fields, and more than 300 hectares of fruit trees in the mountain fields. There are more than 1,000 yellow buffaloes, herds of mules and horses, and countless pigs and sheep. Southeast, northwest, Zhuangbao grassland, a total of sixty or seventy. There is rice grain that has not been used up for eight or nine years, and Aya Luo who has not been worn out for more than ten years. There is an endless amount of gold and silver in a lifetime. If your masters and apprentices are willing to change their minds and recruit in the Han family, they are at ease and enjoy the glory, but they are not as toiling as if they were going west?"
When Tang Sanzang heard this, he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and his heart was even more flustered, just as he was about to get up to say goodbye, he heard the old woman say: "I was born on the third day of the third month of the third month of the year of Ding Hai. My husband is three years older than me, and I am forty-five years old. The eldest daughter's name is Zhenzhen, who is 20 years old this year, the second daughter's name is Aiai, who is 18 years old this year, and the third youngest daughter, who is 16 years old this year, has never promised to be married. Although the little woman is ugly, fortunately the little girl has a bit of color, and the female worker can do everything. Because his husband had no children, he raised them as sons, and when he was young, he taught him to read some Confucian books, and he also knew how to sing some poems. Although he lives in the villa, he is not very vulgar or anything like that, and he is expected to be worthy of the rank of elder. If you are willing to let go of your arms, keep your head with long hair, be a parent with your family, wear silk and brocade, and win as strong as a bowl and a snowshoe!"
Tang Sanzang had no choice but to be silent, but he had already recited the Heart Sutra in his heart.
And after Zhu Bajie smelled so rich and beautiful, he suddenly felt itchy. Although he was sitting on that chair, it seemed to have a needle poking his buttocks, twisting left and right from time to time.
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, got up and approached Tang Sanzang, pulled his robe, and whispered: "Master! This lady told you, why did you pretend not to pay attention? Wouldn't you lose the etiquette of our Tang Dynasty?"
Tang Sanzang raised his head suddenly, and shouted with a blue face: "You evil beast! we are a monk, how can we be tempted by wealth and beauty?" Seeing this, the old woman couldn't help but shake her head and smile, and only sighed: "Poor, pitiful! What is the benefit of being a monk?"
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang took a deep breath, stood up and raised his hand and asked, "Dare to ask the female Bodhisattva, what are the benefits of being in your family?"
The old woman smiled and said, "Elder, please sit down and wait for me to tell you about the benefits of my family." ”
After saying that, he smiled and recited a poem, and only said: "The spring tailor is better than Silla, the summer is changed to light yarn to appreciate the green lotus; in autumn, there is a new maid fragrant glutinous wine, and in winter, the warm pavilion is drunk." At four o'clock, it is used as well, and there are many pieces of eight festivals; ”
Tang Sanzang immediately retorted: "Female Bodhisattva, you enjoy glory in your family, you are rich, you have something to wear, you can eat, and your children are reunited, it is really good." But those who don't know that I am a monk also have some benefits. After that, he also recited: "The ambition of the monk is very good, and the former Grace Hall is overthrown." Foreign objects do not give birth to idle tongues, and there is good yin and yang in the body. After the completion of the work, he returned to his hometown with a clear heart. It's better to be greedy for blood at home, and fall into stinky skin when you get old. ”
When the old woman heard this, she was furious, slammed the table and stood up, and said coldly: "You monk is so rude! If I hadn't seen you come from far away and saved my housekeeper, I would have driven you out long ago." After saying that, he sneered again: "I am sincere, I want to recruit you and others for your family relationship, but you will hurt me with words." Even if you have taken the vows and made a vow, and you will never return to the world, how can you know what your subordinates think in their hearts?
Sanzang saw that she was angry, but she panicked in her heart, so she had to resign 'Amitabha', and then shouted, "Wukong, you are here." ”
Sun Wukong was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a hippie smile: "Master, don't laugh, I don't know how to do such things since I was a child, just teach Bajie here." ”
Zhu Bajie was overjoyed when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to stay in this heavenly place, but he also had plans in his heart. So I saw a dissatisfied look on his face, and said, "Brother, don't play with my little brother." Let's think about the long term, and think about the long term......"
Seeing this, Tang Sanzang had to shake his head and said, "Since you two are unwilling, then teach Wujing here." ”
Sha Seng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly got up from the chair and said, "Master, don't scare the disciple, I think that the disciple was persuaded by the Bodhisattva, received the ordination, and waited for the master." Since Master accepted me and accepted the teachings, I have followed Master for less than two months, and I have never achieved half of the results, how dare I want to be so rich! I would rather die than go to the West Heaven than do such a deceitful thing. ”
When the old woman saw them, you pushed me, and I pushed you, but they all refused to refuse, and a layer of frost hung on her face. He gritted his teeth and instructed the girl beside him: "There is no need to prepare a meal, these monks who don't know any taste just need to recite 'Amitabha', what else do they eat?"
After saying that, he withdrew and entered the screen door, and the 'servant' closed the waist door with a loud voice, leaving the master and apprentice outside.
