The next morning, everyone in the room didn't close their eyes all night, except for Shi Jian and Tang Seng, everyone else's eyes were already swinging, wanting to sleep. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
A loud "bang" sounded outside the house, startling everyone in the room and scaring away everyone's sleepiness.
"What's wrong, what's wrong, what's going on?" several people muttered.
At this time, Sun Wukong's voice came from outside the door.
"Master, master, I'm back!"
Tang Seng exhaled, and he was also frightened by the heavy sound just now.
"It's Grandpa Dasheng who is back, open the door quickly. Gao Yuanwai hurriedly shouted to a few family members squatting at the door.
"Yes, yes, sir. Several of the housekeepers quickly stood up, removed the sticks from the door, and opened the door.
After the door opened, Sun Wukong walked in with a smile on his face.
"Master, the pig demon has been caught by me, and now it is outside. Sun Wukong pointed behind him and said to Tang Seng.
When everyone heard this, they looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, they saw that the pig demon's hands and feet were tied to a wooden stick, and he kept struggling.
"Stinky monkey, dead monkey, you Bi Ma Wen, let go of me!" the pig demon scolded Sun Wukong as he struggled.
"Dead fat pig! You are scolding my old grandson to try again, believe it or not, I sewed your mouth and roasted you into a roast fat pig!" Sun Wukong turned his head and pointed at the pig demon and said loudly.
Hearing Sun Wukong's words, the pig demon suddenly closed his mouth.
Although he closed his mouth, he still kept struggling, making "hum, hum" sounds from time to time.
"Wukong, is this the pig demon who harassed the family outside the senior ranks?" Tang Seng said, pointing at the pig demon.
"It's him, right master, and one more thing. Sun Wukong looked at Tang Seng and said.
"What's the matter?" Tang Seng asked.
Sun Wukong walked to the pig demon, twisted his ears, let him face Tang Seng, and then said to Tang Seng: "Master, this pig demon said that he was looking for something with you, and he didn't say anything when I asked him anything, but only said that he saw the master and told the master, I don't know if you know him, master?"
Tang Seng looked at the pig demon and shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Dead fat pig, dare to lie to me!" Sun Wukong gritted his teeth and pinched the pig demon's ears hard.
The pig demon shouted in pain: "Dead monkey, I didn't lie to you, old pig, master save me!"
"Why do you call me master?" Tang Seng asked the pig demon with some confusion.
"Master, did you learn scriptures from the east to the west?" the pig demon asked loudly.
"It was from the east that the poor monk went to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. Tang Seng nodded and said, "How do you know about the poor monk?"
"That's right, dead monkey, let me go. The pig demon shouted to Sun Wukong.
"Huh, dare you scold me?" Sun Wukong twisted the pig's ears vigorously and said to the pig demon.
"No, no, it's going to be broken, let go. The pig demon hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Hmph, answer the master's words honestly, otherwise. When Sun Wukong let go of his hand, he didn't forget to pull the pig demon's ear as a warning.
"Hiss~" The pig demon couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
After a while, the pig demon looked at Tang Seng and said: "My old pig was introduced by Guanyin Bodhisattva, a few months ago, Guanyin Bodhisattva found my old pig and said that let my old pig come here and wait for a monk who went from the east to the west, let me worship him as a teacher, and then escort him, and send him to the west after giving me a good idea." ”
"Oh, I see. Tang Seng bowed his head and said.
"Since that's the case, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked you to wait here, what are you doing to harass other people's high-ranking families?" Sun Wukong on the side said while pulling the pig demon's ear.
"Hey, hey, monkey, why are you pulling my ears again, it hurts, let go of your claws. The pig demon shouted at Sun Wukong.
Seeing that Sun Wukong let go of his hand, the pig demon hurriedly said: "Master, my old pig has been waiting for two months, and I haven't waited for the master, and my old pig thought that the master was not coming, so he planned to stay and live, who ever wanted to miss the prototype when he drank, and then that's it." ”
"Oh, so you're like this, the master didn't come, so you don't plan to wait. Sun Wukong patted the pig's head and said.
"Go, don't hit me in the head. The pig demon moved his head and said to Sun Wukong.
"Master, just this lazy thing, we still slaughtered him, and the Bodhisattva told him to wait here, and he made these things, and he didn't know what would happen to him in the future. Sun Wukong said to Tang Seng.
"Don't, don't, my old pig knows it's wrong, master, spare me this time. The pig demon hurriedly spoke.
Tang Seng thought for a while and asked the pig demon, "What's your name?"
"My old pig is now called Wu Neng, and this name was taken by Guanyin Bodhisattva for my old pig. The pig demon said.
"Well, since you want to worship the poor monk as a teacher, how about giving you a Dharma name for the teacher, just call it Bajie?" Tang Seng said.
"Well, what do you say, master, I will call my old pig, and my old pig will be called Bajie in the future, Zhu Bajie. Zhu Bajie nodded and said.
Tang Seng nodded, looked at Sun Wukong and said, "Wukong, help him untie the rope." ”
"Oh. Sun Wukong answered and blew at the rope tied to Zhu Bajie, and the rope and wooden stick suddenly turned into an iron rod and flew towards Sun Wukong, which was caught in his hand, and then became smaller and smaller and was taken into Sun Wukong's ears.
"Thank you, master!" Zhu Bajie hurriedly got up and said to Tang Seng.
"Bajie, this is your senior brother Sun Wukong. Tang Seng pointed to Sun Wukong and said to Zhu Bajie.
"Oh, I've seen my brother. Zhu Bajie said with some unhappiness.
"This is a good friend of the teacher, Shi Jushi, who was ordered to accompany the teacher to the West Heaven, and was named the chief manager of learning scriptures by the Tang Emperor, so you can call him the chief of Shi. Tang Seng pointed at Shi Jian and said to Zhu Bajie.
"Yes, master, I've seen Mr. Shi. Zhu Bajie said to Shi Jian.
"Well, I'll call you Bajie in the future. Shi Jian said.
"Bajie, Wukong used to be the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he has strong skills, and the Bodhisattva will let him escort me to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, I don't know where you come from?" Tang Seng looked at Sun Wukong and asked Zhu Bajie.
"Master Hui, my old pig used to be the marshal of Tianpeng who managed Tianhe in the heavenly realm, because he violated the rules of heaven by moving his heart, he was beaten down by the Jade Emperor, and experienced all kinds of hardships in the world, but in this life, he strayed into the way of beasts and became what he is now. Zhu Bajie said helplessly.
"What, it's you! When my grandson saw your nail rake, he felt a little familiar, it turned out to be you idiot. Sun Wukong on the side heard Zhu Bajie's self-introduction and said in surprise.
"Hmph. Zhu Bajie snorted and didn't reply.
"It turns out that you used to be a god in heaven, and it seems that you have some of the same, both of you have made mistakes and been punished. Tang Seng looked at the two people in front of him and said.
"Little Master Xuanzang, seeing that Wukong and Bajie know each other, that's right, then all this is a misunderstanding, it's not too early this day, let's hurry. Shi Jian said.
"Well, good. Tang Seng nodded.
When the senior officials and others on the side heard their words, they hurriedly walked up and said, "Don't you stay for a few more days?"
Tang Seng shook his head and said: "Outside, we are going to the west for a long time, and if we stay for a day, we will be late for a day, and we can return early if we go early." ”
"In this case, come on, take something for the masters to eat on the way. Gao Yuanwai said to the housekeeper behind him.
"Yes, sir. The housekeeper answered, and left with a few of the housekeepers.
"This ~ outside, you have already entertained us, so you don't have to spend so much. Tang Seng said with some embarrassment.
"Master, don't be polite to him, my old pig has been working here for a few months, but I have helped him plant a lot of land, which is all as it should be. After Zhu Bajie finished speaking, he looked at the clothes with a few holes on his body, thought about it and said to Gao Yuanwai: "Father-in-law~"
Zhu Bajie also opened his mouth to see the sudden ugly face of the senior member, as well as the expressions of Tang Seng and others, and hurriedly said: "It's wrong, it's wrong." Outside, you see that my clothes are broken in the fight with the senior brother now, why don't you get me one, so I can go on the road. ”
Gao Cuilan on the side thought about it, pulled the old woman into the house, and soon took out a set of clothes for the old woman to send to Zhu Bajie.
"Here's the clothes. The old woman handed over the set of clothes in her hand to Zhu Bajie and returned to Gao Cuilan's side.
Zhu Bajie looked at it and saw Gao Cuilan hiding behind the old woman, and he was overjoyed, so he put it on the spot.
After a while, the official came over with a few servants and handed over some dough and a full head in his hand.
Zhu Bajie hurriedly took it and put it away.
After packing their bags, the four of them began to leave the high-ranking family's house and walked outside.
Zhu Bajie looked back at Gao Yuanwai's house step by step, and after walking for a while, he shouted at Gao Cuilan and the others: "Cuilan, after I escort the master to Xitian, I will come back to marry you!"
Gao Cuilan was so frightened on the spot that Gao Yuanwai and the old woman fainted, and those family members hurriedly helped the three of them in and closed the door, for fear that Zhu Bajie would come back. (To be continued.) )
