Chapter 108: Outside the Dou Yuan of Diling County

More than half a month after leaving the Tianzhu King's Palace, Shi Jian and the others saw another city. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Shi Jian and the others entered the city and pulled a passer-by to inquire, it turned out that this was Diling County, Tongtai Prefecture, Tianzhu Kingdom, not far from West Tianling Mountain, and there were probably hundreds of miles to get there.

Hearing this news, Shi Jian and the others were extremely happy, they had been walking for so many years, and they were finally going to the West Heaven.

"Sanzang, this is already very close to the Buddha of the West Heavenly Spirit Mountain, and we have been on the road for so many days, and we are also a little tired, and the dry food we brought before has already been eaten, it is better to take a rest in this Diling County today, and by the way, replenish the dry food, how about we are on the road tomorrow?" Shi Jian asked Tang Seng.

Looking at the crowd, Tang Seng thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, let's rest in this Diling County for a day." ”

"Whew~ I can finally take a break, I'm tired of the old pig. Hearing Tang Seng's words, Zhu Bajie threw down the nail rake after speaking, and leaned on the luggage carried by Sha Seng.

"Wukong, you go and eat some fasting. Tang Seng turned his head and said to Sun Wukong.

"Okay, master. Sun Wukong nodded, and he was going to fast.

I saw that the passers-by who were stopped by them just now hurriedly stopped Sun Wukong, and said to them with some confusion: "Elders, you are not monks from Tianzhu Kingdom, right?"

"Amitabha, this benefactor, the poor monk is indeed not a local monk, the poor monk is a monk who came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty to worship the Buddha in the West Heaven and seek scriptures. Tang Seng recited a Buddha name and said to the passerby.

"No wonder you still have to go to fasting, you don't know. The passerby replied.

"Donor, I don't know what you mean by this?" Tang Seng asked with a puzzled expression,

"Elder, do you know, our Diling County is close to the West Heaven, so many families believe in Buddhism, especially the Kou Yuan Wai in this county, not to mention, if you want to fast, just go directly to the Kou Yuanwai's house, and the Kou Yuan Wai will definitely entertain you well. The passer-by said to Tang Seng and a few people.

"Outside?" Shi Jian asked.

"Yes, Kou Yuanwai's house, just in that direction, keep walking, and it won't be long before you can see a big courtyard, which is Kou Yuanwai's home. The passer-by pointed to a direction in the distance and said to Tang Seng and the others.

"Amitabha, thank you very much for this benefactor. ”

"You're welcome, if it's okay, I should be busy. ”

After Shi Jian and the others said goodbye to the passer-by, they walked straight towards the house of the Kou Yuanwai, and not long after, they passed by a large garden and came to the gate of the Kou Yuan's house that the passer-by said in his mouth.

Looking at Zhu Bajie, who was about to step forward and knock on the door, Tang Seng stopped Zhu Bajie and said to Zhu Bajie: "Bajie, come for the teacher." ”

"Oh. Zhu Bajie replied and returned to Tang Seng's back.

"Tuk tuk. ”

"Coming, coming, who?" a man's voice rang out, and the door opened.

Looking at Tang Seng and the others in front of him, the man asked, "Who are you?"

"Amitabha, a poor monk who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West Tianling Mountain to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures. Tang Seng recited a Buddha name and said to him.

"You are all monks?" the man asked, pointing to Sun Wukong behind Tang Seng.

"This benefactor, we are a group of five people, only the poor monk and the three apprentices of the poor monk are monks, and this one is the general manager who accompanied the poor monk to the West Tianling Mountain on the order of the Tang Emperor. Tang Seng pointed to Shi Jian and the others behind him and introduced him.

"Why do these three look so much like monsters?" the man muttered in a low voice after listening to Tang Seng's words.

"Who do you say is a monster!" Zhu Bajie stepped forward, straightened his stomach, and said to the man.

The man was startled by Zhu Bajie's movements, and couldn't help but take a step back and tripped to the ground.

"Hahaha~" Seeing the man stumble and fall to the ground, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie couldn't help laughing.

"Butler, why is it so noisy outside the door?" At this moment, a slightly wealthy old man stepped out of the door and asked the man.

"Master, demon ~ monster!" The man who was called the housekeeper by the rich old man pointed to Zhu Bajie and said to the rich old man.

"Huh?" When he saw Zhu Bajie and them, the rich old man was also taken aback.

Tang Seng hurriedly stepped forward and said apologetically: "Amitabha, donor, they are all apprentices of poor monks, not monsters. ”

"You~ are you a monk?" the rich old man asked, pointing at Tang Seng.

"Amitabha, hello Dou Yuanwai, the poor monk is a monk who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West Tianling Mountain to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures. Tang Seng said.

Looking at Tang Seng in front of him, looking at Zhu Bajie and the others, Dou Yuanwai asked suspiciously: "Do you know me?

"Amitabha, only the poor monk and the three apprentices of the poor monk are monks, this is the general manager of the Tang Emperor who accompanied the poor monk to the West Tianling Mountain, we just passed by here, a passerby told us, let us go to the staff outside the house to eat some fasting, if there is inconvenience outside, the five of us will leave. After Tang Seng finished saying to Dou Yuanwai, he was about to turn around and leave.

Looking at Tang Seng and the others who were leaving, Dou Yuanwai hurriedly grabbed Tang Seng and said: "Holy monk don't go, how can there be any inconvenience in my family, don't hide it from the holy monk and say, my name is Kou Hong, I am sixty-four years old this year, when I was forty years old, I made a vow to fast to ten thousand monks, and I want to make a great merit." Today, my family has fasted more than 9,996 monks, and there are still four more to complete. Now the holy monks and apprentices have just four people come to my house, isn't this providence? ”

"Amitabha!" Hearing Dou Yuanwai's words, Tang Seng didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to recite a Buddha name.

"Holy monk, please come in. Dou Yuan pulled Tang Seng outside and made a gesture of please.

Tang Seng thought for a while and said to Dou Yuanwai: "Amitabha, thank you for being outside." After speaking, he walked in with Dou Yuanwai.

Looking at the Dou Yuan who was talking and laughing with Tang Seng, and the housekeeper who was standing at the door to welcome everyone in, Shi Jian touched his chin and followed in.

Tang Seng and the others stayed for more than half a month, and every time they wanted to leave, they were very enthusiastically retained by Dou Yuanwai.

Finally one day, Tang Seng couldn't sit still, this West Tianling Mountain was about to arrive, but he couldn't get out, which really made people a little anxious.

Tang Seng went out to find Kou Yuanwai and explained his intention.

Looking at Tang Seng who wanted to leave, Dou Yuanwai was helpless, sighed, and invited the band to send Tang Seng to the city gate.

When parting, Shi Jian handed a letter that had already been written to Dou Yuanwai and asked him to open the letter after they left.

Dou Yuan, who looked puzzled at the time, looked at the letter handed by Shi Jian, thought about it and accepted it.

Seeing Dou Yuanwai accept the letter, Shi Jian smiled at it, turned around and stepped on the road to West Tianling Mountain with Tang Seng and his party. (To be continued.) )
