Chapter 910: Why bother!
After a short time, the two of them went out of the mountains and forests and came to a mountain villa with only a few dozen people.
Nie Changchuan followed Liu Boqin to his home and found that this Zhenshan Taibao was really not boasting.
In addition to an old mother and a wife, there are still four or five domestic servants and a large mansion.
According to Liu Boqin's own account, he is quite prestigious in these ten miles and eight townships, and these young and middle-aged domestic servants in the family are actually sent by the rural fathers and elders to serve his juniors, and by the way, he became an apprentice and learned some skills in the mountains and forests from him.
This is not only about hunting, but also about making money and making a living.
Nie Changchuan originally thought that this so-called livelihood was hunting, but when he saw the scene in the house, he knew that he was small.
Although Liu Boqin has never read a book, he really has a good brain, he actually knows how to raise some roe deer, tigers and leopards in the yard, and when they are domesticated, they will be taken to the Tang City to sell to the nobles.
Seeing this scene, Nie Changchuan couldn't help but be in awe.
No wonder people are well-off, this pattern is different from the hunters who only know how to peel skin and slaughter meat.
After that, Nie Changchuan stayed overnight at Liu Boqin's house.
After eating fast in the evening, Nie Changchuan heard that Liu Boqin's father had died of illness not long ago, so he volunteered to recite a mantra for his deceased father, and then prepared enough incense banknotes to do a complete set of rituals.
The next day, Liu Boqin's family waited at the door of the guest room before dawn, and when they saw Nie Changchuan walking out, they thanked them gratefully, saying that their father gave them a dream last night, and asked them to thank the holy monk for their excess.
Nie Changchuan had expected it, after all, since the water and land conference, he had a lot of face in the underworld.
When Nadifu Yama saw him reciting the "Mantra of Death" for others, he had to serve him well, so as not to anger the holy monk.
He smiled slightly, declined the gift given by Liu Boqin's family, and only said that he wanted Liu Boqin to lead the way for him today.
Liu Boqin repeatedly persuaded him, but Nie Changchuan was still resolute, and as a last resort, Liu Boqin had to withdraw his thank-you gift and promise to lead the way.
After breakfast, Liu Boqin's mother and wife hurriedly prepared some coarse flour oil cakes and gave them to the holy monk as dry food.
Liu Boqin himself carried a strong bow, brought a steel fork, and diligently escorted Nie Changchuan out of the villa.
On the way, Nie Changchuan looked at the mountains in the distance and couldn't help asking, "What is the name of this mountain?" ”
Liu Boqin sighed and said: "This mountain is called the Mountain of the Two Realms, the eastern half belongs to my Tang Dynasty, and the western half is the territory of Tatar......
Speaking of this, Liu Boqin showed a look of hesitation and embarrassment on his face.
Nie Changchuan knew what he meant, and immediately said with a smile: "It's okay, when I get to the Two Realms Mountain, I will leave by myself." ”
Liu Boqin was ashamed and embarrassed to speak again.
Nie Changchuan didn't care, and continued to ask: "The donor has lived here for a long time, can you know where the Five Elements Mountain is?" ”
Liu Boqin was slightly stunned, and then explained: "The elder doesn't know that these two realms of mountains used to be called the Five Elements Mountain, according to the old people in the countryside, this mountain fell from the sky when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, and a monkey was pressed under the mountain. ”
"In the past, when the Tatars were fighting chaotically and had no time to look east, I also went to the bottom of the mountain with my father to see him!"
"Oh?" Nie Changchuan's eyes lit up, "It turns out that it's right in front of you!" ”
Sure enough, he knew that how could this plain and unprovoked spawn an Orion must be an important plot NPC!
Nie Changchuan was full of interest, and immediately followed Liu Boqin to the Five Elements Mountain.
As soon as he got closer, he heard a thunderous cheer coming from the bottom of the mountain.
"My master is here! My master is here! ”
Nie Changchuan smiled knowingly, and immediately ignored Liu Boqin's dissuasion, went straight down the mountain, and came to the foot of the mountain, and sure enough, he saw a monkey head covered with weeds and dust at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing Nie Changchuan coming, the monkey's cheers stopped abruptly, and his ecstasy froze.
After a while, he blinked his fiery eyes and looked at the bald man in front of him who was nine feet tall, holding a wrought iron heavy soldier, and his robe was draped obliquely, revealing his strong pectoralis muscles, which could be called a bald strong man who could run a horse on his arms and stand on his fists.
“…… Who are you? ”
Nie Changchuan smiled and said, "You call me Master, and ask me who I am, isn't it contradictory?" ”
The monkey looked Nie Changchuan up and down, and asked suspiciously: "You are the monk sent by the King of the Eastern Soil to the Western Heaven to learn scriptures, how can this appearance be so far from my old grandson's imagination......"
Nie Changchuan smiled dumbly: "What do you think I should look like?" ”
The monkey smashed his mouth and said: "Kind eyebrows and kind eyes, compassionate? ”
Nie Changchuan shook his head: "Such a good and deceitful, how can it withstand all kinds of disasters on the way to the west?" ”
The monkey thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he nodded and said, "That's the truth." ”
After speaking, he said eagerly: "So that Master knows that I am the Monkey King of the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, and I had a little holiday with the Buddha of the West Heaven Rulai, so I was pressed here by the Buddha for five hundred years." ”
"Until not long ago, Guanyin Bodhisattva came here, saying that there is a scripture learner in the east who will pass by here, as long as I am an apprentice with him and protect him to go west to learn scriptures, he can save me......"
"I see." Nie Changchuan nodded, looked at the monkey's fiery eyes, and asked seriously, "In that case, are you willing to go to the West Heaven with the poor monk to learn scriptures?" ”
The monkey nodded again and again, and said eagerly: "I am willing, I am willing!" ”
Nie Changchuan looked at him fixedly for a while, then suddenly shook his head and said, "I see that you are just in a hurry to get out of trouble, and you have no sincerity." ”
The monkey was anxious, and hurriedly promised: "Master rest assured, my old grandson has always been grateful and repaid, and there is no lie, and I have promised the South China Sea Guanyin Bodhisattva, even if you don't believe me, you must believe in the Bodhisattva, right?" ”
"Guanyin Bodhisattva?"
Nie Changchuan shook his head and said honestly: "The poor monk once fought with her, I am afraid that she will be jealous and resentful, and I really can't believe it!" ”
“…… Yes? ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Sun Wukong, but even Liu Boqin behind Nie Changchuan stood on the spot.
Nie Changchuan didn't care about Sun Wukong's dull gaze, and continued to ask seriously: "Sun Wukong, the poor monk asks you again, are you willing to go to the West Heaven with the poor monk to learn scriptures?" ”
Sun Wukong came back to his senses, didn't care about the strange feeling in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Old Sun is willing." ”
Nie Changchuan nodded and said, "In this case, I will save you here." ”
Sun Wukong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Master, there is a golden post on the top of this mountain, you just need to go up the mountain and lift the golden post, and you can save me!" ”
Sun Wukong thought that his cheap master would respond in one bite, but he didn't expect that this guy would glance at the gold-lettered Buddha post on the top of the mountain, shook his head, and said calmly: "Why bother!" ”
After speaking, he flipped his right hand, took out a copper bowl, and threw it to his side.
In an instant, the copper bowl bloomed with golden light, enveloping Liu Boqin, who was bewildered behind him.
After protecting Liu Boqin, Nie Changchuan jumped up and flew into the air, his whole body bloomed with golden light, as if the Buddha was alive, traversing the sky, and the treasure solemnly overlooked the mountains and rivers below.
Seeing this scene, Sun Wukong and Liu Boqin were both stunned.
The former stared at a pair of fiery eyes, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Innocent golden body?!" ”
Before the words fell, Nie Changchuan's eyes widened angrily, and he slammed out a palm, shouting: "Open it for me!" ”
"Roar!!"
The golden light was shining brightly in the sky, and a faint dragon chant came from behind Nie Changchuan, resounding in this heaven and earth.
In Sun Wukong's dull gaze, he saw a golden palm as wide as a hundred zhang falling from the sky, and suddenly fell on the top of the Five Elements Mountain, colliding with the golden post with the six-character mantra of Buddhism.
"Boom!"
The golden post bloomed with Buddha light, but in front of the golden palm print of the same root and origin, there was no terrifying suppressive power.
In just an instant, the golden Buddha post shattered, exploded into golden points of light in the sky, and disappeared in the air.
And the huge golden palm print rumbled down, starting from the top of the mountain, splitting the Five Elements Mountain like a bamboo, and smashed all the way to Sun Wukong's body.
Fortunately, at this time, the golden palm print had no power, but it only made Sun Wukong feel a sense of oppression like a storm.
"Boom—"
In the midst of the deafening loud noise, the tall Five Elements Mountain parted from the middle section and collapsed to the sides.
Sun Wukong lay in the pile of rubble at the foot of the mountain, staring at the golden-bodied monk slowly descending in the sky.
In a trance, he seemed to have become the helpless little monkey in the palm of Rulai's hand again.
This scene was so deeply engraved in his heart that a hundred years later, in the Emei Mountain Fight to defeat the Buddha Cave Mansion, Sun Wukong still told this story to Agarwood with emotion.
"At the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, the master came to me, I asked him to remove the post and save me from the predicament, he smiled and said why bother so much, and then he flew into the sky, showed a golden body, and split the Five Elements Mountain with one palm......"
Hearing the words of Sun Wukong, who was already fighting to defeat the Buddha at that time, the young Agarwood had a look of longing and reverence.
But what Agarwood didn't know was that when he left the cave and was about to practice, Sun Wukong silently lit a cigarette and recalled the follow-up story.
At that time, the bald monk who had just split the Five Elements Mountain was covered in golden light, and fell in front of Sun Wukong, and then looked into his eyes, and asked him to think carefully again, whether he wanted to go to the West Heaven with the teacher to learn scriptures, or wanted to be sent to the West Heaven by the teacher......
