Chapter 136: Is it okay not to kill you?
Ryoma carried Xuanzang back to his original place. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Wukong and Bajie were fighting happily.
Xuanzang said: "Hold back! Hold back! Help!"
Bajie said: "It's so rare to find a chance to quarrel, and I was interrupted by the master again, it's really disappointing!"
Wukong said: "The master is calling for help." ”
Bajie said: "Have you met a monster?"
Xuanzang grabbed the reins and said, "It's not a monster, it's a robber!"
Wukong said: "I don't know how many I have encountered on the road with this kind of little thief! ”
Ryoma said: "Senior brother, Master's illness is cured! You can't fix me anymore!"
Wukong smiled: "Haha, I didn't expect a few little thieves to actually cure the master, it seems that the method of Bajie is really effective!"
Bajie hurriedly corrected: "You have to make it clear! I just made a small suggestion, and the specific idea was not made by me!"
Xuanzang said: "Okay, okay, you don't have to shirk your responsibility, I don't blame you for the teacher, hurry up and send the robbers away." ”
Wukong said: "Just a few robbers, let Bajie send them away." ”
Bajie said: "Old pig, I only fight monsters, not robbers." Let's let the third junior brother take action. ”
Xuanzang said: "Hey! This appetite has been raised, and a few robbers still can't look down on it! Wujing, or you can take action, there will be meritorious results." ”
Wujing said: "What the master says is what it is, I took this deal, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat." ”
Xuanzang said: "But remember, don't hurt their lives." ”
Wujing said: "I know, I'll make a fixation method and fix them." ”
Wukong smiled: "Master is always so fake compassion. ”
Xuanzang said: "Why am I pretending to be compassionate?"
Wukong said: "I don't know how many lives these robbers have injured. Now that I keep them, I don't know how many people will be harmed. ”
Xuanzang said: "That's why I'm going to learn the scriptures." ”
Wukong said: "Master, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and it is difficult for a scripture book to save the common people!"
Xuanzang said: "Wukong, your thinking is too extreme. Let me give you an example: since the Tang Dynasty publicized and promoted Buddhism, the crime rate of the entire Tang Dynasty has been much lower, and it is called the rule of Zhenguan by the world. ”
At this moment, a group of robbers had caught up.
Enlighten the Dharma and fix them there, and they can't be moved.
Wukong said, "Master, do you really plan to let them go like this?"
Xuanzang said: "Huh, do you really want to kill them? If you kill them, this story will evolve into another version." ”
Wukong said: "Don't say it, the disciple really has this kind of thought. ”
Xuanzang said: "There are many reasons why these people are robbers. Some people are lazy, some are forced by life, or for other reasons, and not all of them are ruthless outlaws. We leave some money for them, and they can also make a small business to make ends meet. If you still want to do evil, you will not be able to escape the restoration of the heavenly net. As the saying goes, it's not that you don't report it, it's just that the time has not come. ”
Wukong said: "Learning scriptures like you, no amount of money is enough to squander." ”
Xuanzang said: "If you can help, you can help, I can only do it here." Okay, it's getting late, let's hurry. ”
So they left a few hundred taels of silver and went on.
――――――――――――
After walking less than ten miles, I suddenly saw a village courtyard not far from the roadside.
Wukong said: "Master, there is a family in front of you. ”
Xuanzang said: "Then let's spend the night there." ”
So everyone arrived at the door of the fence yard, and Xuanzang stepped forward and knocked on the door. A voice came from the garden, "The youkai are coming, the youkai are coming!"
Everyone looked closely, but it was a parrot barking.
Wukong said: "Thief bird, if you call again, believe it or not, I will pinch you to death!"
The parrot said, "What an ugly monkey, scared the baby to death! Help!
At this moment, an old man came out of the cottage and asked, "Who is this person who has come to my door to make trouble?" Oh, it turns out to be a few elders, what is the matter with you?"
Xuanzang said: "I am a monk who went to the West Heaven to worship the Buddha from the Tang Dynasty in the East Soil, if it is late today, please also ask the old donor to make it convenient and stay for one night." ”
The old man said: "Since it is a holy monk from the east, then please come in." So he opened the door and welcomed some people in.
After entering the door, the old man sat down with Xuanzang to talk, and asked his old wife to serve two cups of tea.
The old man said: "My parrot is really right, you monks on the same road are really too ugly, and they scared me a lot when I first entered the door." ”
Xuanzang said: "They are my apprentices, although they are ugly, they are all authentic disciples of Buddhism." ”
Wukong said: "Old man, although my appearance is not very dignified, my magic power is not small." What kind of monsters do you have here for me to call? Anyway, I haven't received any business in a long time. ”
The old man said: "We don't have any monsters here, only some jackals, tigers and leopards. If there is more, it is that the folk customs are stronger, and many young people like to do some business that does not cost money. ”
Wukong said: "To put it bluntly, it's a robber's den." ”
The old man said: "Don't hide it from the elders, my son is a bandit leader, and he can't listen to persuasion." ”
At this moment, a rough voice came from outside the door: "Dad! Mother, I'm back!"
Then I heard the parrot screaming there: "The rabbit is back!
The old man was shocked when he heard this: "Elders hide quickly, my unfilial son is back again!"
Wukong smiled: "We've met him, no need to hide, no need to hide." ”
As soon as the man entered the house and saw Xuanzang and the others, he was immediately shocked and said, "Emma, it's you again!"
Wukong said: "What, do you still want to rob us?" It turned out that this person was the bandit leader he met on the way just now.
The leader knelt down in front of Xuanzang and said, "Thank you for the elder's grace not to kill, the villain has decided to reform himself!"
Wukong said, "You don't have any ideas?"
The leader was dazed: "Why do you have an idea?"
Wukong said, "Shouldn't you have an idea?"
Xuanzang said: "What's wrong with people changing their ways and returning to righteousness, Wukong, what are you doing?"
Wukong said: "It's so easy to change the evil and return to the right? ”
The leader said: "Elder, you think too much! If you can find a satisfactory profession, who would want to do that kind of knife and blood licking business." You gave me so much money, and I can live a good life. ”
Xuanzang said: "Your parents have been farming at home all their lives, didn't they come over too?"
The leader said: "What's the use of farming at home? I'm in my thirties this year, and I can't even ask for a wife!"
Xuanzang said: "As long as people are down-to-earth and hardworking, how can they not marry a wife? Didn't your father also marry your mother?"
The leader said: "My father couldn't please his wife back then, but after a few years of being a robber and having some savings, he married my mother." ”
The old man said embarrassedly: "Well, that was many years ago, why mention him." ”
Bajie said: "What's wrong with being a robber, I'm born to be a robber! Brother, I support you to continue to be a robber, it's really pitiful to be a single Wang." ”
Xuanzang said: "Bajie!
Bajie said: "Master, I still remember the stories you told in the past. ”
Xuanzang said: "Is there such a thing?"
Bajie said: "Yes, wow! You said that the Tang King's subordinates had many Shandong Xiangma and Green Forest heroes, and later they became the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty." Have you forgotten?"
Xuanzang said: "This ......"
Wujing also said, "Second Senior Brother is right! Master, you have indeed told these stories. You also said that there was a man named Cheng Biting Jin under King Tang, who had not yet found a wife in his thirties, so he was determined to be a robber with ideals and ambitions. Later, he got what he wanted, married the famous Bai Fumei Pei Cuiyun in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and finally even ranked among the heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion of the Tang Dynasty, becoming a big winner in life admired by thousands of people. ”
Xuanzang wanted to cry without tears: "What kind of apprentices did the Buddha choose for me, I can't remember a word of good words, but I remember that these unpopular deeds are ripe!"
Wukong immediately jumped out and cleared up the relationship: "I didn't say anything this time! The two of them are robbers, but I'm not! Although I have also occupied the mountain as the king, but I have never robbed the passerby, I am not a robber, I am doing the right thing for heaven!"
Bajie retorted: "Your golden hoop sticks are all robbed, and you say that you are not a robber!"
Wukong said: "That was given to me by the Dragon King! If you don't believe it, you can go to the Dragon King to testify!"
Bajie said: "Now that the Dragon King of the East China Sea has a good relationship with you, how can he testify against you?"
Wukong grinned and said, "Isn't this the end!"
Bajie said: "But you also robbed the armory in the mortal capital! Don't deny it, you said it yourself!"
Wukong said in a vain heart: "That's not robbing, it's stealing......"
Bajie smiled: "What is the difference between stealing and robbing? You are a habitual thief!"
Wukong said: "I won't steal it now!"
Xuanzang said: "Wukong, don't say it again, the more you describe it, the darker it gets." Last time, I asked you to go to the fate, but the donor thought you were ugly and refused to turn it into you, but you helped the teacher steal a bowl of rice and came back, which is what you said. ”
Wukong said: "What is this called! Oh, I helped you speak, and you beat me up!"
Xuanzang said: "It's the pig that uses the rake!"
Bajie laughed loudly: "Brother Monkey, Master's lovesickness this time is really good, and he is willing to quarrel with us!"
Xuanzang retorted: "Do I have lovesickness?
Wukong said: "Sure enough, it's all good, I don't remember!"
The three of them were arguing here, dumbfounded the old man's family of three.
The old man said, "Do you usually quarrel like this?"
Xuanzang said: "That's right." ”
The old man said, "Don't you feel annoyed by being so noisy?"
Xuanzang said: "We have been going all the way to the west, and we have been walking for almost ten years, if we don't make such noise, how will we live?"
Wukong said: "This time, I would like to thank you as a robber son." If it weren't for him, my master's illness wouldn't have been cured, and if my master's illness wasn't good, we wouldn't have been able to quarrel happily!"
The leader said, "I really made such a great contribution?"
Wukong said: "Sort of." ”
The leader said, "Then should you send me a big red envelope?"
Wukong said: "Didn't I give it to you before?"
The leader said, "Who doesn't want to live a better life? If you become a rich peasant, you want to be a rich man, if you become a rich man, you want to be a rich man, and if you become a rich man, you want to marry more beautiful wives, don't you?"
Xuanzang's master and apprentice exclaimed together: "Sure enough, the human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant!"
The old man scolded: "The rabbit cub is not satisfied! Now that you have this money, you can completely do some profitable business! Can you rely on others for a lifetime?"
The leader was silent.
In the end, Xuanzang and the others had a meal at the old man's house and stayed.
