Chapter 16: The Past of the White Dragon
Tang Sanzang was furious in his heart, and roared: "Little White Dragon Ao Bai, as a candidate for learning from the scriptures, you blocked the way on the Eagle Sorrow Stream, ruined the lives of the people, and tried in vain to resist the pursuit of the heavenly soldiers, and you have already committed the heavenly capital crime. I advise you not to be obsessed with it, make mistakes again and again, put away your evil nature, and follow me to the west to learn scriptures, and you can also offset your merits and cover up your sins. ”
Bai Long looked at Tang Sanzang contemptuously, and snorted coldly: "Go to your candidate for learning from the scriptures, to put it bluntly, you want this prince to be a despicable horse." You people who learn from the scriptures talk about righteousness and morality, but you are nothing but liars who make promises. For your sake, this prince is going to put down the proud dignity of my dragon clan and be a horse that can be ridden by others, which is simply a fool's dream. ”
Tang Sanzang couldn't help but be shocked, and said in a lost voice: "Damn, then why are you staying in Eagle Sorrow Stream, isn't it just to wait for someone to learn the scriptures?"
Ao Bai laughed wildly when he heard this, and said hatefully: "But now that the prince has changed his mind, I just want to destroy you, the so-called scripture learner, so as to calm the humiliation I have suffered for two hundred years." Then I set myself up as king in this eagle's sorrowful stream, and those who obey me prosper and those who disobey me perish, how free and easy I am. As for those bullshit rules, they are all things that confuse right and wrong, and make things out of nothing, even if this prince commits thousands of things, what is it? Which one has the courage to catch this prince, but he still has to show some skills, otherwise this prince will kill the gods when he sees the gods, and the Buddha will kill the Buddha, so why is it difficult?"
Sun Wukong laughed, he didn't feel that he had a good impression of Ao Bai, and clapped his hands vigorously: "Well said, well said, you kid is really arrogant, just like my old grandson back then." Well, you have a very good appetite for this great sage, the master chose you to go to the west to learn the scriptures, and my grandson raised his hands in favor. ”
Sanzang smiled bitterly when he heard this, but he was shocked in his heart, I, this is really strange, it stands to reason that Ao Bai should be full of expectations for the people who learn the scriptures, why there is such a big prejudice? After all, he can go to the west to learn the scriptures, it is Guanyin Bodhisattva to give him an opportunity to atone for his sins, he will return from the scriptures, he Ao Bai will no longer be a sinner who has committed the rules of heaven, but a meritorious man who has made great contributions to the great cause of learning the scriptures, this point can not be unclear to him, so why should he destroy his future and decide to intercept and kill the people who learn the scriptures? What's more, the person who learned the scriptures had never met him, so how could he talk about having a festival? All of this made Tang Sanzang unpredictable, and he didn't feel that it was a big headache.
The archmage shrugged his shoulders and said depressedly: "Ao Bai, I said that you always need a reason to hate someone, you and I have never met, how can we talk about hatred, if I die at your hands so unexplained, wouldn't it be too unjust?"
Ao Bai glared angrily, and couldn't help sneering: "That's right, we haven't met, because of this, this prince has to wait for two hundred years on this desolate eagle stream, it's too outrageous, right?
Sun Wukong laughed when he heard it, and said full of ridicule: "Damn, you said that you have waited for two hundred years to learn the scriptures, which is too funny, you know, it can be several generations." If a person wants to take two hundred years of scriptures, then he has already turned into white bones, how can he stand in front of you alive? Haha, this is really funny. ”
Sanzang nodded, and said with deep sympathy: "Ao Bai, Wukong is right, I only came to learn the scriptures now, how can I make you wait for two hundred years, and it is too much to say?" Oh, I understand, it must be a punishment for you for violating the rules of heaven, but two hundred years is indeed long enough, think that when I wait for the bus, if I don't come in twenty minutes, I am so anxious that I want to jump my feet, these two hundred years, it is really unimaginable." ”
Ao Bai exhaled and snorted coldly with disdain: "Even so, is the suffering of the prince in vain in the past two hundred years? Anyway, I have already made a big mistake, and if I kill the person who learned the scriptures, my merit will be complete, Tang Sanzang, you don't need to quibble, you can obediently suffer death." ”
Hearing him admit it himself, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but blush, and said in a trembling voice: "So, is the rumor that you slaughtered the 400,000 army of the Harba Kingdom true?
Ao Bai's teeth cracked when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Why, because they have offended the dignity of my dragon clan, because this prince is too lonely, killing people can bring me happiness, seeing their panicked appearance, this prince feels happy from the bottom of his heart." Tang Sanzang, since you are a genuine scripture learner, the prince will make an exception to tell you about it, so that you can go on the road with peace of mind. ”
"When I committed the Heavenly Rules, I was pressed to the heavenly court to ask for guilt, and when I was about to open the knife to ask for the beheading, I was met by the South China Sea Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she pleaded with the Jade Emperor on my behalf, saying that the person who went to the West Heaven to learn the scriptures was lacking at this moment to be able to camel him across thousands of mountains and rivers, and the difficult asceticism of 108,000 miles away was by no means capable of ordinary horses. The Bodhisattva begged the Jade Emperor to forgive me for my sins, and I waited for the arrival of the scripture collector in the Eagle Stream, and then turned into a white horse and went to the Western Holy Realm to face the Buddha to seek scriptures to atone for my past sins. ”
"At that time, I was really moved, thinking that it was an extra blessing for me to be immortal, and what was it to be a cow and a horse for the people who learned the scriptures? So I came to the Eagle Sorrow Stream with gratitude, and looked forward to the arrival of the people who learned the scriptures day and night. I turned into a human form every day and went ashore to inquire if there was a monk who went to the west to learn scriptures, but fifty years have passed, and the answer is still negative. ”
Gradually, the people around Eagle Chou Jian knew that I was looking for someone to learn from the scriptures, and some people began to deceive me for pleasure, saying that they were the people who learned the scriptures. I was so happy that I immediately turned into white horses and let them ride, but they scared people away, and of course there were people who were brave enough to ride me, but they wanted to take advantage of me to go home. ”
Ao Bai paused and continued: "After countless encounters, I finally understand that my dignified third prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace was actually tricked by a little mortal. At that time, I didn't bother to bother with them, after all, the people who learned the scriptures still had to wait, and I just had to pay more attention in the future. But I was wrong, the more time passed, the more people came out to mess around, and I was so busy dealing with those people all day that I was really tired physically and mentally. ”
"I'm tired, I feel very worthless, the dignified dragon prince is waiting here, but I want to be a horse to be ridden. I am not reconciled, and I am not reconciled to death, why is the third prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace so played. I became angry and began to seek out those who had played tricks on me, and to kill them to vent my hatred. It was a pleasure to see those guys pleading with me before they died, and I became obsessed with the feeling. From then on, I began to kill people openly, and I wanted to make the people around me fear me and submit to me. I want to replace the emptiness and loneliness in my heart with a sense of superiority that intimidates the Quartet, and restore the dignity of the dragon that I am proud of. It's really refreshing and enjoyable. ”
