Of course, such a force must be eradicated, but this is where Rulai's genius lies, he did not personally destroy the Taoist goblins, but set up the territory of these Daoist goblins on the road to learn the scriptures, and as a result, the people who learned the scriptures passed by and just cleared them.

Why do you think that the people who learn the scriptures have such a high status after the end of the scriptures, Sun Wukong, Tang Seng became a Buddha, Zhu Bajie Sha Seng did not say, even the white dragon horse became a Bodhisattva, do you really think that you can gain so much by acting all the way? They actually cleared the opposition forces from Nanzhan Buzhou to Xiniuhe Continent, and opened up the connection between Lingshan and Datang. And the Thorn Ridge demons are obstacles that hinder the road, and they must be cleared regardless of whether they are evil or not.

Third, an attempt to change the ideology of Tang Seng, as we all know, Tang Seng is a cultivator of Buddhism, and letting Tang Seng learn scriptures from the West is just to make the Tang Dynasty upgrade from Theravada Buddhism to Mahayana Buddhism, and let Buddhism take root in the Tang Dynasty. However, the advice given to Tang Seng by the demons of Thorn Ridge is that there is no need to practice Buddhism at all, and Taoism can also cross people, this is an ideological dispute, so that Tang Seng can change his faith, which is not allowed by Rulai no matter what.

Maybe friends can't think about this idea, but it's more convincing to look at the original book:

Those who are also Taoist, intrinsically safe China, come to verify the West. Empty straw sandals, I don't know what to find? The stone lion gouged out the heart and liver, and the wild fox salivated to the bone marrow. Forgetting the roots and going to Zen, vainly seeking Buddha fruits, are like my thorny ridge kudzu vine riddles, Luo Rong nonsense.

Thorn Ridge Monsters

To put it simply, the Tao is your foundation, and it is ridiculous that you go to the west to learn scriptures. If Tang Seng listens to these words, he really doubts the Dharma, and even if his faith changes, will he be angry? Therefore, killing them is the best option. It can be seen that the 5 demons of Thorn Ridge did not die unjustly, plus they did not have a tough backstage, they just relied on their own efforts to become fine, so they were killed and no one saved them.

Do you think that's the reason?

Alas!

Su Jun couldn't help sighing, what a knife on the head of the color word!

It's not just men who are targeted, sometimes women are also killed by this color word.

You said that a good wood fairy, why did you fall in love with Tang Seng and the monk?

How nice it is to take a fancy to me!

It's going to make you want to die.

But if you fall in love with this monk, what a tragedy! Not only did he die, but he also affected the entire Thorn Collar.

As soon as he thought of this, Su Jun quickly fell from the sky. After entering Thorn Ridge, but Thorn Ridge is really full of thorns, let alone looking for someone.

It's hard to find your way.

Fortunately, Su Jun thought of a scene in the original book.

Tang monks and apprentices passed by Thorn Ridge and saw an ancient temple in front of them, Sun Wukong looked at it and said: "This place is less auspicious and more fierce, and it is not suitable to sit for a long time." ”

Sha Seng said: "Senior brother is suspicious, it seems that this uninhabited place, and there are no monsters and monsters, what are you afraid of him?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I suddenly saw a gust of cloudy wind, behind the temple gate, turned out an old man, wearing a horn scarf, wearing light clothes, holding a cane, stepping on mango shoes, followed by a blue-faced fangs, red-bearded naked ghost envoy, with a plate of flour cakes on his head, kneeling down and saying: "Great sage, the little god is the land of Thorn Ridge, knowing that the great sage is here, there is no way to receive it, specially prepare a plate of steamed cakes, serve the master, and invite each to have a meal." Eight hundred miles here, there is no one to eat, talk about eating to satisfy hunger. ”

Bajie rejoiced, stepped forward to relax his hands, and wanted to take bread.

Sun Wukong looked at it for a long time and shouted: "Stop, this guy is not a good person!" Hugh is rude! What land are you, come to the old grandson! Look at the sticks! ”

When the old man saw him calling, he turned around, turned into a gust of wind, and with a snort, he took a Tang monk away.

So, now it's just a matter of finding that temple.

As soon as Su Jun raised his hand, the Pure Yang Sword appeared in his hand. Then he pinched a magic trick, and in an instant, the Pure Yang Sword flew out, and the speed was extremely fast.

Constant shuttle between thorns.

Everywhere they passed, all the plants that stood in their way were cut off.

"Huh"

He hasn't found the temple yet, but Su Jun has found a strange place. Su Jun made a move, and the Pure Yang Sword immediately returned to his hand.

Then Su Jun immediately went in that direction.

"Brush Brush Brush"

But when he was halfway there, the trees around him seemed to come to life. The branches, or the roots of the ground, all wound around him like spirit snakes.

"Huh!"

Su Jun sneered, obviously trying to stop him from moving forward. But the more this happened, the more excited Su Jun became. Because in all likelihood, the core of the Thorn Collar has been found.

If there is nothing special in this thorn collar, he will not believe it if he is killed. There are so many youkai on a mountain.

The Pure Yang Sword flew rapidly around Su Jun, and it was getting faster and faster, forming a circular shield. Cut off all the branches and roots that tried to get close to him.

Obviously, it is impossible for these little tree demons in front of him to stop Su Jun alone.

"Stop."

Finally, an old man came out of the thorns. blocked in front of Su Jun, and looked at Su Jun with a solemn face.

"Huh?"

Su Jun stopped and looked at the visitor with a bit of surprise.

Because the monsters of the thorn collar are all plant essences. Therefore, they all have some characteristics of the ontology.

So, soon Su Jun recognized it. The one in front of him is the eighteenth prince of Jinjie in the thorn collar. That is, the pine demon.

"Interesting!"

To say that among these thorns, the ones he values most are the apricot fairy (apricot) and the whisk cloud (bamboo). Because as long as these two destroy their souls, he can get two spiritual roots.

Even if it is not as good as the innate spiritual root, it should not be inferior to the acquired spiritual root.

And these two, one blossoms and bears fruit. Flowers can be soaked in water, and fruits can be eaten.

The latter, although not able to blossom and bear fruit. But the reproduction is fast, as long as there is this one, it will soon grow into a piece like the purple bamboo in Guanyin.

Moreover, bamboo shoots are also edible, which is somewhat useful for spiritual practice.

As for the Eighteen Gong (Song), Lonely Zhigong (Bai), Ling Kongzi (Juniper), and Naked Ghost (Maple), Su Jun didn't pay so much attention to it.

Of course, this is also relative. These four, no matter how you say it, can also be big demons. Even if it becomes a spiritual root, it can be used to refine qi!

So don't take it for nothing, don't take it.

Besides, I want to come to that place. That will definitely be on the opposite side of this thorn leader all the monsters, and a fight is inevitable.

So he didn't talk nonsense, and raised his hand. pinched a sword duel, and in an instant, the pure yang sword flew directly towards the eighteenth gong of Jinjie.

Seeing this, the eighteenth prince couldn't help but stare at this, and his pupils were even more earthquake. Because, the speed of this sword is too fast.

Almost instantly, the Pure Yang Sword had already arrived in front of the Eighteen Dukes of Jinjie.

"Big brother!"

And at this time, two voices sounded on Su Jun's left and right. It turned out that this time it was not only the eighteen princes of Jinjie, but also the two demons of the lonely straight prince (cypress) and the volley (juniper).

Obviously, this was an intention to besiege Su Jun. It's just that I haven't found a suitable opportunity to make a move for the time being.

I didn't expect that Su Jun was so unparticular that he didn't say a word, and opened it directly. It really caught them off guard.
