181, Shangyuan Lantern Festival, the princess of Tianzhu Kingdom
The second day, night.
The festival of the upper yuan of Jinping Mansion.
On the spacious gallop road, there are crowds, bright lights, and constant sounds of joy.
The scholars were elegant, the peasants had dinner and participated in the festival, the craftsmen who had worked all day took to the streets to enjoy the prosperity, and the hawkers cried out in a constant manner.
The lights of thousands of homes outline a picture of Haiqing River!
Chen Jiangliu was in the bustling street market, his expression was a little dazed, as if he had returned to the Tang Dynasty in an instant......
After going out for more than ten years, I don't know if my parents are okay and how my friends are.
In recent years, the development of the human race has indeed advanced by leaps and bounds, and outside the Tang Dynasty, there has been such a prosperous scene.
Chen Jiangliu has traveled all the way, everything he has seen and heard is the misery of the human race, and the humiliation of the human race. Anti-saint religions?
The old monk followed behind Chen Jiangliu, with a chuckle on his face, "Master, Jinping Mansion is okay, right?" ”
Chen Jiangliu nodded, "It's okay, it's just a little worse than Chang'an." ”
"Amitabha, who in the world doesn't want to be born in Chang'an in the next life?"
"The lecture is about to begin, let's go over."
Jinping Mansion, there is a pagoda, eighty-one levels high, non-human can be built, after the arrival of three true Buddhas, cast by mana.
The pagoda is hung with lanterns of various colors, emitting a purple and red glow in the dark, which is the most conspicuous and representative landmark of Jinping Province!
The stupa was already surrounded by a crowd of people, and the people prepared incense offerings to listen to the teachings of the three true Buddhas.
The old monk led Chen Jiangliu to find a position in front of him and waited quietly.
The old monk showed a deep smile on his face, looked at the pagoda, and recited a Buddha name in his heart, "You died for the great plan of Buddhism, and you died without regrets!" ”
Chen Jiangliu was eating a rock sugar gourd, and he also looked at the pagoda, his face was flat, "This... The host lured the poor monk here, and his mind was not pure! ”
"Kill with a knife?"
"Huh!"
After Chen Jiangliu finished eating the sugar gourd, he began to eat melon seeds and continued to wait.
The hustle and bustle of the Shangyuan Festival continued, but the pagoda did not move at all.
Whispers rang out from the crowd, "No... At this time of year, the true Buddha has already begun to preach the Dharma, so why hasn't he come this year? ”
"Don't worry, maybe the True Buddha has something to delay, so be patient and wait."
"That's right, wait and see!"
As the night deepened, the hustle and bustle of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival gradually receded.
"Why hasn't the True Buddha come yet?"
The noise in the crowd grew louder.
The old monk's face also changed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart: "Why haven't you come yet?" Didn't something happen? ”
Chen Jiang yawned a few times, looking sleepy-eyed and a little sleepy, "What's that... The poor monk is a little tired, why don't you go back and rest first? ”
The old monk hurriedly spoke: "Master, the true Buddha's teachings are rare and valuable, not to be missed, maybe the true Buddha will come in a while, now is the test of the true Buddha, see who is sincere to the Buddha!" ”
"Okay, the poor monk will wait a little longer."
The old monk appeased Chen Jiangliu, and immediately quietly transmitted the message to the Nine Heavens Sea of Clouds, "Quickly go to the Xuanying Cave of Qinglong Mountain to check, why haven't the three rhinoceros spirits come over yet?" ”
"If this calamity is lost, my Buddha Gate will have to make up for another calamity..."
In the sea of clouds, a Brahma light crossed, and Manjushri flew towards the Xuanying Cave of Qinglong Mountain.
It was late at night, there were few people on the gallop, and most of the people went home to sleep.
Under the pagoda, the crowd yawned one after another, and left silently in groups.
The third watch arrived, the night was cold, and the last person left.
Chen Jiangliu looked at the old monk with a smile, "There is no one, can the poor monk go back?" ”
"Wait, wait, the true Buddha should be coming soon." The old monk comforted Chen Jiangliu on the surface, but secretly said in his heart: "Why has Manjushri been gone for so long and hasn't come back yet?" ”
Chen Jiangliu sneered, "Poor monk, it's the true Buddha in your mouth who is insincere, so many people have waited for a night tonight, and they don't see the shadow of the Buddha, even if they can't get out of the body because of something, they should let the novice pass on the message!" ”
"In the end, I still don't look down on us, such a true Buddha, don't worship, go back to sleep!" After Chen Jiangliu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
The old monk stood still in place, watching Chen Jiangliu go away, and his face sank.
A Brahma light rose, and the old monk went up to the sea of clouds, which was transformed by the Medicine Buddha.
In the distance, the light flickered, and Manjushri returned, but he looked a little embarrassed.
"Manjushri, what happened? Qinglong Mountain is only thousands of miles away from here, and it can be reached in the blink of an eye, how can you come back so slowly? Medicine Buddha asked in a deep voice.
Manjushri hurriedly explained: "Senior brother, those three rhinoceros spirits are not the sons of men, and they set up a large array in that cave mansion and blew the entire Xuanying Cave to the ground. ”
"Huh? What about the three rhinoceros essences? Medicine Buddha's face changed slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
"It's gone." Manjushri Path.
"How could it be gone? Those three wild rhinoceros spirits have no backing, where will they go? Where can I go? ”
"I don't know ......," Manjushri shook his head helplessly.
"Can you see what kind of big array is in the Xuanying Cave?"
Manjushri shook his head, "That formation is extremely powerful, trapped formation, killing formation, and maze combined, not like the three clear and one vein, but like the scattered cultivation of one vein......"
Listening to Manjushri's answer, the Medicine Master's face softened, as long as it wasn't Sanqing's intervention.
"There are not a few powerful scattered cultivators in the Three Realms, if they are really cut off by scattered cultivators, the three rhinoceros essences will fall into the sea like needles, and there is no way to find ......"
"Eighty-one is difficult, and one is missing!"
"What should I do?"
Maitreya's Yellow Eyebrow King, Guanyin's Golden Retriever Roar, and Manjushri Puxian's Green Lion Old Elephant are all launched by Buddhism, and those who supplement the calamity are all miserable... were all beaten and killed by the golden cicada, and their bodies and spirits were destroyed......
Now Jinping Mansion is missing a difficulty, and it must be made up for in the future......
"Alas!" A sigh rang out from the clouds.
Following.
The sun rises and warms the earth.
All the people went back to their posts and toiled hard.
Prosperity and beauty, food and clothing, not believing in Buddhism, worshipping Buddha and seeking Buddha, but hard work!
Chen Jiangliu slept until the third pole of the sun, and went out of Ciyun Temple to the street, "Boss, cut five catties of mutton, ten flatbreads, and a bowl of mutton soup." ”
"Okay, guest wait." The shopkeeper got busy.
Chen Jiangliu had a beautiful meal, and his heart became more and more nostalgic for Chang'an, "It's almost to Lingshan, it's almost to Lingshan, and I'm about to go home!" ”
"Disciples, let's go, hurry!"
Sun Wukong came out of the fruit market, and Zhu Bajie came out of the kiln factory......
The five groups of master and apprentice met and went all the way to the west, continuing their journey.
And at this time.
Jinao Island, Biyou Palace.
After the three rhinoceros spirits knelt down and worshiped the saints of the Shangqing Dynasty, they were officially admitted to the sect.
The three rhinoceros essences are not bad in nature, they have never hurt anyone, and their character and qualifications are excellent, which is suitable for income interception!
The three rhinoceros spirits were overjoyed, their three brothers were just wild rhinoceros, and they only stepped into the cultivation world by chance, and they never thought that they would one day be able to worship the great sect of saints?
The three rhinoceros spirits worshiped the sect and threw away the name of the previous demon king, and since then, there are only sect masters in the Three Realms to avoid the cold, the heat, and the dust!
……
Chen Jiangliu's master and apprentice went out of Jinping Mansion, ate and stayed in the water, and traveled all the way to Pingning, for more than half a month. Suddenly, one day, I saw a high mountain.
Near the holy land of Buddhism, there are no demons on the face of the mountains and rivers, but there is no way to know how many harmful and cannibalistic people are in the back.
When they had crossed the high mountains, they saw that the road was flat, and a great city stood on the plain.
And they walked a few more days, and came to the gate of the city.
The city is tall, and there are three big characters on it: Tianzhu Kingdom!
Tianzhu Country is very large, no less than the Tang Dynasty, and the previous Fengxian County is just a county under Tianzhu Kingdom!
The city in front of you is the main city of Tianzhu, where the royal family is!
At the foot of the Buddhist gate of Tianzhu country, controlled by Buddhism, it can be regarded as a religious country, and the monks have a high status in Tianzhu.
Chen Jiangliu's master and apprentice were few of them interrogated, and they entered the city.
When I entered the city, I didn't feel how prosperous it was, and it was not even as good as Jinping Mansion, which was full of the rotten smell of Buddhism's false benevolence and false righteousness to persuade people to suffer and reincarnate.
Most of the restaurants in the city are fasting restaurants, and there is very little meat, which is really boring.
After walking a few streets, Chen Jiang is popular in front of a temple, with glazed blue tiles, half new and half old, but it is also a red wall. Faintly see the pine cover, I don't know that it is thousands of years of antiquities to the present, the name of the Golden Temple!
Chen Jiangliu checked into the Bujin Temple according to the normal process, and then immediately wrote to the king of Tianzhu to change the customs clearance documents.
In this bird place, Chen Jiangliu doesn't want to stay for a moment!
At noon, Chen Jiang flowed into the palace to meet the king of Tianzhu, who said that he was a monk of the Tang Dynasty, went to the west to learn scriptures, and asked for a change in the customs clearance documents.
The king of Tianzhu also believes in Buddhism, knowing that he has traveled thousands of miles to learn scriptures and admires him to the extreme, and with a wave of his hand, he will take out the treasure seal to exchange it for customs clearance.
At this time, a eunuch came to see him and whispered to King Tianzhu for a long time.
The King of the Pillars showed hesitation on his face and put down the print again.
"Holy monk, all the way, thousands of miles, hard work, don't be in a hurry to change the customs clearance documents, let's eat a vegetarian meal first." The king laughed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Although Chen Jiangliu didn't want to be a vegetarian, he couldn't save the king's face.
Eating a fast meal is extremely painful.
When he had finished eating, the king proposed to go to the attic for a while.
"Your Majesty, the poor monk still has to hurry...... " Chen Jiangliu reminded.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, the scriptures are there, it doesn't hurt to be a few days late."
Chen Jiangliu was helpless, so he could only nod and agree.
The two maidservants led Chen Jiangliu to the attic to rest, but stopped at a splendid attic.
Chen Jiangliu was stunned for a moment, and asked the two maidservants, "Didn't you say that you led the poor monk to rest?" Where is this? ”
The two maidservants covered their mouths and snickered and ran away.
Creak!
I saw the door of the three-story attic slowly open, and a woman wearing a splendid golden gauze skirt walked out of it.
The woman wore a light veil on her face, a little red between her eyebrows, and her beautiful eyes flowed, staring at Chen Jiangliu below.
The woman walked to the front of the attic, raised the red hydrangea in her hand, and gently threw it down.
Chen Jiangliu watched the red sleeve ball smash towards him, his mind instantly turned a thousand thoughts, and finally confirmed, "Stepping on a horse, this is a hydrangea to recruit relatives?" This kind of pie-in-the-sky thing can also be smashed on the heads of poor monks? ”
"The poor monk practiced for the tenth generation, did all the good deeds, and was hit on the head by hydrangea, which is what the poor monk deserves!"
So, I saw Chen Jiangliu stretch out his hand and grab the hydrangea, and shouted in his mouth at the same time: "Don't! Don't, poor monk... Don't want, really don't, want! ”
Airplanes!
Chen Jiangliu firmly grasped the hydrangea.
The woman in the attic on the third floor watched Chen Jiangliu catch the hydrangea, her beautiful eyes flashed, and she was a little happy.
The woman slowly removed the light veil on her face, and her delicate face was displayed in front of Chen Jiangliu's eyes.
Beauty!
Beautiful!
A pair of big Kazlan eyes, a little red in the center of the eyebrows set off the endless enchantment, the beautiful long hair is tied up with a gilt silver hairpin to highlight the elegance and luxury, the cherry-like red lips are extremely seductive, and the earlobes look crystal clear in the sun.
The woman gently stroked her hair, not her hair, but Chen Jiangliu's beating heart.
"Chang'e in the sky, I guess that's it, right?"
The woman nodded slightly and chuckled, then closed the veil, and only then did she take it off so that Chen Jiangliu could deliberately see her face clearly.
The woman approached the attic.
Chen Jiangliu held the red hydrangea in his hand, and his heart was hot and difficult to press, "Such a big baby, just... Just look at the poor monk? ”
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
A team of forbidden soldiers ran out in an orderly manner and invited Chen Jiangliu back to the king's study for tea.
King Tianzhu put on a shocked look, "Is it the holy monk who took Su'e's hydrangea?" ”
Chen Jiangliu nodded subconsciously, "It turned out to be called Su'e, it sounds good!" ”
King Meng sighed.
Chen Jiangliu sighed and was a little frightened in his heart, "This emperor is an old man, he won't regret seeing that the poor monk is a monk, right?" ”
"Would you like to marry Princess Su'e?"
"Poor monks can return to the world!"
Chen Jiangliu and the king spoke at the same time, the king wanted Chen Jiangliu to marry the princess, but Chen Jiangliu was afraid that the king would see him as a monk and not let him marry the princess!
"Huh?" The king listened to Chen Jiangliu's words, and his eyes couldn't help but shine.
"I have no children under my knees, just the daughter of Princess Su'e, the little girl's vision is too high, and the entire Tianzhu Kingdom has not been able to see it, and just now the little girl threw the hydrangea to you, do you know what I mean?" The king looked at Chen Jiangliu with a solemn and serious face.
"Understood! Understand! Chen Jiang nodded again and again, shouting in his heart, "The wealth of the country, the wealth of the country!" ”
King Tianzhu chatted with Chen Jiangliu for a long time, and only in the evening did Chen Jiangliu leave the palace and return to the Bujin Temple, and when he saw the disciples, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and said: "Announce a big event for the teacher!" ”
"Big deal? What's the big deal? ”
"Could it be that there are monsters in this Tianzhu country?"
"Master, what's the big deal?"
Chen Jiangliu paused and said solemnly: "King Tianzhu is going to recruit him as a teacher and a concubine!" ”
"What?"
"The teacher is getting married again?"
"Why did you use another word?"
"Master, it's miserable to be a son-in-law, master, you are thinking about it." Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk, and Xiaobailong heard that the teacher was getting married again, they were not too surprised, and they got used to it.
"Shallow! That's shallow! ”
"Apprentices, if you are strong for your whole life as a teacher, how can you go to be a son-in-law to others? Unless the woman is good-looking! ”
"Let's get to the point, King Tianzhu has no heirs, just this one daughter, just one daughter, just one daughter!"
Sun Wukong, Monk Sha, Zhu Bajie, and Xiaobailong listened to their master's words, their eyes couldn't help but widen, and their breathing became more and more rapid, "The wealth of the country? ”
