Chapter 188: Funeral Ceremony
As soon as the words came out, Bajie was furious, and said angrily: "This monkey, either he doesn't teach, he wants to eat alone as soon as he makes a move, and the master said that everyone has a share of teaching elegance and vulgarity, but you want to monopolize it, what is your intention?"
"Although our combat power is not as good as yours, after all, we are also the head of the family, how can it be more complicated than your stinky monkey's stick method, how can you teach you alone to be elegant and vulgar, and you don't take us seriously?" The old pig said this, and couldn't help but arouse the injustice of Ao Bai and Wujing, and at the moment Yuan opened his angry eyes and stared at the monkey with gritted teeth.
Seeing that a few people were so deeply disgusted, the monkey knew that he was unscrupulous, and he was angry, so he hurriedly waved his hand and comforted: "Hey, hey, don't be busy, listen to my explanation, it's true that my grandson is too anxious and said the wrong thing, I just see that Ya and vulgar have that kind of understanding, and I also see that I am happy to hunt, and I want to teach him well tonight, and you brothers will be accommodating and convenient." ”
Seeing that he changed his face again at this time, everyone was still resentful, and said hatefully: "I just have such an attitude towards you, but I shouldn't give it to you plainly, even if I line up for rotation, I should also queue you to the end." ”
In this way, in order to teach the elegant and vulgar seats at night, several brothers fought for each other, refused to give in to each other, and quarreled so much that their faces were red, but they couldn't distinguish the reason.
In the end, Wen Tianshu was angry at the quarrel of a few people, and shouted: "Okay, you all don't fight, Yashu has practiced combat power for the first time today, and he has already learned several forms, as the so-called greed is bound to lose, let him study and consolidate well at night, and you all go back to rest." ”
This made perfect sense, and the brothers looked at each other, then they all nodded, and went back to rest with great interest.
So, for several days, the brothers took turns to teach the elegant and vulgar, one is the elegant and the vulgar is very studious, and the other is that his qualifications are indeed extraordinary, and he has studied hard, and has already integrated the rake method of the eight precepts and the wand method of Wujing into the use of the halberd, and the furnace is perfect, and the moves are skillful, at the moment it is just a lack of actual combat experience, and I believe that in the future journey and the little demons along the way to fight, will definitely be able to become a master of each.
However, after many attempts, the brothers also regretted to find that Ya Shi seemed to have a very high level of understanding purely in the cultivation of combat power, but in the cultivation of Dao Fa True Qi, he seemed quite clumsy, and he was an absolute imbecile, even worse than a master with a low eye.
This result made several people puzzled, and Wukong also secretly regretted that the master had not been able to save the next nine-turn golden pill for Ya Shi to take, otherwise, he would have given birth to a lot of innate true qi in his own body for his own use, and everyone didn't have to work so hard to train his method of conducting qi, and many attempts were useless.
Fortunately, Ya Shi was naturally born with a pair of meat wings, which is enough to support him to fly in the air, so he is not so important in cultivating true qi and feeling cloud flight, in addition, his endowment in cultivating combat power is too high, and his strength is amazing, as long as he cultivates diligently and is skillful in moves, it is enough to make up for his lack of qi training, although he may be at a disadvantage in master duels, but it is more than enough to deal with the demon king with weak mana.
Therefore, after a short discussion, the brothers decisively gave up the training of Ya Shi in Taoism, and instead focused on his gifted combat power training, which was both labor-saving and effective, and was very satisfactory in all aspects.
After three days of bathing and fasting, His Majesty the King also chose the day for the joint burial of the tenth generation of monarchs and the mother of the Golden Sacred Palace, and he also personally came to the dormitory to invite the three Tibetan masters and apprentices to participate in the joint burial ceremony, and predetermined the time and process of the entire ceremony.
When it was, the sky was still midnight, the stars and the moon were shining, and the entire inner courtyard of the palace resounded with the sound of monks and nuns singing, and the sound of bells, drums, wooden fish beating everywhere made everyone in the Sanzang army sleepless, tossing and turning. I don't know how much time passed, and there were attendants who lit lanterns and held honor guards to knock on the doors of the masters and apprentices.
When the master and apprentice finished washing up with sleepy eyes, and came to the imperial tomb in the eastern suburbs of the royal city in a sedan chair with the guard of honor, His Majesty the king and all the ministers, princes and grandchildren, and harem concubines had already arranged in the wilderness in order of rank, and in front of them was the towering and majestic imperial tomb, and a high platform was built in the middle, and a mourning banner was erected above the high platform, swaying and stretching in the wind, and many high-quality white wax were lit on the table, and a plate full of fruits was placed.
On both sides of the high platform, hundreds of monks and nuns sat down, knocking on the bell chime and wooden fish, chanting scriptures incessantly, with pious faces, falling and dusting. And directly opposite the high platform stood seven or eight Taoists, all dressed in fairy robes, wearing star crowns, holding swords in their hands, shaking bells, shouting and chanting.
Looking at such a battle, Bajie couldn't help laughing, stroked his palms and said: "Hehe, look at this formation, it's too funny, this is a monk and a Taoist, it's nondescript, the soul of the dead ghost is difficult to do, but I don't know if it's the excesses of Buddhism, or a few volumes of Taoist scriptures, both of them are big customers, but they can't afford to offend." ”
Tianshu couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and reminded: " The second senior brother said respectfully, His Majesty the King is still standing next to him, don't talk like this, I think it is Zhu Ziguo after two hundred years of oppression by the forces of the Pig Cave, the original belief fell apart, whether it is the Buddhist canon, or the Taoist scriptures, as long as it can deter demons and evil spirits and calm people's hearts, they can establish spiritual support in the minds of the people. ”
As a few people were talking, the Taoist priest over there had finished reading the scriptures, and shouted, and the first old Taoist priest who was close to ancient times turned around, made a joke, and sang: "The funeral begins, the family members see the ceremony, one kowtow, then kowtow, three kowtows, after the ceremony, play mourning music, and carry the coffin." ”
As soon as the words fell, the sound of crying and suona suddenly sounded, and eight strong men with broad shoulders and round waists bent down and bowed respectfully towards the luxurious black lacquer carved coffin, and they were about to lift the coffin vigorously. Unexpectedly, these eight strong men exerted their strength at the same time, and they were so tired that they gritted their teeth, and the blue tendons on their foreheads burst out, and they couldn't lift the coffin.
His Majesty the King forcibly supported his weak body, his face flushed, and he coughed and asked: "Ahem, eight wrestlers, just a coffin, how much weight can it take, how can there be so many of you, still can't lift it, what do you mean, if the time of the burial is delayed, how can you afford it?"
As soon as the words came out, a group of strong men were so frightened that they were drenched in cold sweat, and even if they abandoned the log that carried the coffin, knelt on their knees, and crawled forward: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, and the ministers are confident that the eight people work together, even if this coffin has a weight of thousands of catties, it is like a mustard, but today I don't know what is going on, we have used all our strength, this coffin seems to be pressed straight to the ground by some majestic force, or it has taken root, it just can't be lifted, and please ask Your Majesty to cure the sins of the ministers, we are really powerless." His Majesty was also slightly surprised when he heard this, and raised his head to cast an inquiring glance at the old Taoist priest standing majestically in front of him.
The old Taoist priest also had a solemn face, said "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable", and said to His Majesty the King with one hand: "Your Majesty, according to this situation, it is not that the eight wrestlers have not fulfilled their responsibilities, but that the inner obsession of the Golden Saint Palace Niangniang has not disappeared, and she refuses to obey the king's order and bury the emperor's mausoleum. ”
His Majesty the King heard the "ah" sound, his body trembled, and he said with a slight panic: "How is this possible, returning to her homeland and being buried in the imperial mausoleum, but isn't it the lifelong wish of my grandmother, recently the widow has fasted and bathed, prayed sincerely, and held a funeral ceremony, so that she will be buried in the imperial mausoleum with the ten generations of ancestors.
The old Taoist priest looked motionless, bowed down slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Poor Dao will cast a spell here, and he will definitely talk to the mother of the Golden Sacred Palace and ask her the real reason why she refuses to be buried in the imperial tomb." ”
As he spoke, the old Taoist priest stretched out his hand and lit a yellow talisman and threw it in the air, rattling the bell and dancing the sword, looking crazy, and there were words in his mouth, not knowing what he was saying. After half an hour like this, the old Taoist priest seemed to have been punched heavily in the chest, his old face twitched, his face was as white as earth, he fell to the ground in a dejected manner, the bell also fell, the sword also fell, like a rooster drenched in water, his hands and feet trembled, panting, and his momentum was completely lost.
He was stunned on the ground for a long time, and then he bowed to His Majesty the King very reluctantly and said: "Your Majesty, the old Dao is incompetent, the spell is low, and the Golden Saint Palace Niangniang is obsessed with being strong, and she refuses to talk to the old Dao. As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked, looking at each other and at a loss.
Wen Tianshu smiled with a smile on his face, stepped forward and saluted: "Old Taoist, in my opinion, it is not that your spells are low, nor is it that the mother of the Golden Saint Palace is obsessed with being strong, but that you have neglected the basic etiquette of dealing with the world, so you have failed." ”
When the old Taoist priest heard this, he was furious, and said: "You are a girl who came from, do you know what kind of identity and authority I enjoy in the country, and dare to say that I have neglected the basic etiquette of dealing with the world, is it simply unreasonable?"
Seeing that the old Taoist priest was facing anger and blaming himself like this, Wen Tianshu didn't care, and said with a slight smile: "Old Taoist, don't worry, I said that you don't understand etiquette, naturally I have a reason, and listen to me slowly." ”
"Although the mother of the Golden Sacred Palace died, after all, she was the holy lord of the world of the mother and the world, how noble her identity was, don't say that you are a person who is close to ancient times, what kind of status and status you enjoy in the Zhu Zi Kingdom, and for Niangniang, she is just a mere minister. Since ancient times, there is a way that there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, and you can't trespass, not to mention that Niangniang is a virgin, but you are an old man, and you have always been a great defense of men and women, such as the next abyss, the first life of the Virgin Mary is clear, and how can you be tarnished at will, she does not talk to you, that is the most reasonable, but you are very pedantic, how can you not understand it?"
