Chapter 2: The Elaborate Conspiracy (2)

I saw that the monkey king looked no different from the great sage: he was also wearing a pair of chain gold armor, wearing a phoenix-winged purple gold crown, stepping on a pair of lotus silk steps, and holding a golden hoop stick in his hand. At this time, the great sage was furious, let go of the sand monk, raised the iron rod and scolded: "What kind of monster are you, dare to change my appearance, dare to occupy my monkey grandson, live in the water curtain cave, and do power and blessing here!" ”

When the Monkey King saw it, he didn't answer a word, and he also raised the golden hoop stick to greet him. The two of them were in one place, and sure enough, they didn't distinguish between truth and falsehood, and then they started fighting-

Two sticks, two hairy monkeys, this rivalry is not light. They must support Tang Sanzang and make a name for themselves with their own merits. The real monkey is really taught by Shaman, and the fake monster claims to be the Buddha's son. The cover is miraculous and varied, and there is no truth or falsehood. One is a mixed element and one qi natural stone monkey Qi Tiansheng, and the other is a long-refining thousand spirit shrinking goblin. This is the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick, and that one is the Wishful Qiankun Stick. There is no victory or defeat in the partition block, and there is no win or loss in supporting the enemy. The previous fight was outside the cave, and Shaoqing fought in mid-air.

The two of them each stepped on the clouds, jumping and fighting into the nine clouds. The sand monk was beside him, he didn't dare to start, seeing them fighting this battle, it was admittedly difficult to be serious, and he wanted to draw his sword to help, but he was afraid that he would hurt the truth. He endured it for a long time, and jumped off the cliff, made the demon scepter, hit the water curtain outside the cave, scattered the demons, overturned the stone bench, smashed the drinking and meat-eating utensils, and looked for his green felt baggage, and disappeared completely.

Then he swept the clouds and rushed to the nine clouds, holding the demon scepter, and it was not easy to start. The Great Sage said: "Sha Seng, you can't help, and reply to the master, saying wait for me - wait for the old grandson to distinguish the truth from the false before this demon hits the Bodhisattva of Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea." As soon as Wukong finished speaking, the other said the same. Sha Seng saw the two appearances, voices, and expressions, and there was no difference in the slightest, and it was difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, so he had to follow his words, turn the cloud head, and fly in the direction of Tang Sanzang.

I saw the two great sages, walking and fighting, shouting to the South China Sea, coming to Putuo Mountain, beating and scolding, shouting endlessly. Alarmed the Dharma Protector Heavens early, and immediately reported to the Chaoyin Cave and said: "Bodhisattva, sure enough, two Monkey Kings came from fighting. The Bodhisattva, the Hui'an Walker, the Fortune Boy, and the Dragon Maiden descended to the lotus platform and went out and shouted, "Go where the evil beast goes!" The two Monkey Kings said at the same time: "Bodhisattva, this guy really looks like a disciple."

Since the water curtain cave has been fighting, the battle has been for a long time, and there is no winner or loser. Sha Wujing is ignorant with the naked eye, unable to distinguish, powerful and difficult to help, it is the disciple who asked him to go back to the West Road to reply to the master, I fought with this fight to Baoshan, is to use the Bodhisattva's insight, to give the disciple a true and false, to distinguish the evil and the right. After that, another Monkey King also said the same.

All the heavenly immortals and bodhisattvas have watched it for a long time, and they don't want to and can't distinguish the true from the fake. The Bodhisattva said, "Let's stop fighting, stand on both sides, and wait for me to take a look." Sure enough, the two Monkey Kings stopped at the same time and stood still on both sides. Here's what it says, "I'm real! He said, "He's a fake!" I'm the real thing."

The Bodhisattva summoned Hui'an and Shancai to step forward and quietly ordered: "You two look at one by one, and wait for me to secretly recite the "Tightening Mantra", and see that the one that hurts is true, and the one that doesn't hurt is fake." The two of them immediately looked at one after the other. The Bodhisattva secretly recited the mantra, only to see the two Monkey Kings crying out in pain together, holding their heads, rolling on the ground, and shouting: "Mo Nian, Mo Nian!" The Bodhisattva didn't read it, and the two of them grabbed it together and shouted as usual.

The Bodhisattva had no choice but to ask the gods and Hui'an to come forward to help. The gods were afraid that the real great sage would be hurt, and they didn't dare to make a move. The Bodhisattva called "Monkey King", and the two agreed together. The Bodhisattva said: "When you were an official and worshiped Bi Ma Wen and made a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, the gods would all recognize you, and you would go up to the realm to distinguish the reply." The two Monkey Kings also thanked at the same time.

The two of them tugged and pulled, shouting and arguing in their mouths, and after a while, they came to the Nantian Gate, and were shocked that the wide-eyed Heavenly King led Ma Zhao Wenguan to the four heavenly generals, and the gods of the gate, each made a weapon to block it: "Go there!" This is not the place for fighting.

Sun Wukong said: "I went to the west to learn scriptures for protecting Tang Sanzang, and killed a few thieves and thieves on the road, so Tang Sanzang drove me away, and I came to Putuo Mountain to tell Guanyin Bodhisattva the reason, I don't want this monster, when will I change my appearance, defeat Tang Sanzang, and snatch the burden."

Afterwards, Monk Sha came to Huaguo Mountain to seek it, and saw me who had changed from this monster, and then was beaten away. Sha monk had no choice but to go to Putuo Mountain to ask the Bodhisattva for help, unfortunately saw my old grandson standing under the stage, Sha Seng said that I drove a somersault cloud, and took the first step in the Bodhisattva to cover up. The Bodhisattva gave the old Sun Zhengming that he didn't listen to Monk Sha's words, and ordered me to go to Huaguo Mountain with him to find out.

It turns out that this monster is exactly the same as Lao Sun, the two of them fought on par, only to fight all the way from the Water Curtain Cave to Putuo Mountain to see the Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva saw it and it was difficult to distinguish the true from the false, so the fight to this place, the tired gods will show their magical powers, and help my old grandson know the truth and falsehood. After that, the other Monkey King also said this and that.

The gods will look at it for a long time, and they will not be able to distinguish the true from the false. The two Monkey Kings shouted at the same time: "Since you can't recognize it, get out of the way, and wait for us to see the Jade Emperor!" The gods will not be able to resist, the two Monkey Kings broke through the gate of heaven, until the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, Marshal Ma and Zhang Ge Xu Qiu Four Heavenly Master played: "There are two Monkey Kings in the lower realm, entering the gate of heaven, saying that they want to see the Jade Emperor to distinguish the true from the false." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the two Monkey Kings broke in noisily, so frightened that the Jade Emperor immediately wanted to drill under the table in the palace, and asked at the same time: "What did you two trespass into the Heavenly Palace Lingxiao Treasure Palace, I was scared!" The Great Sage said, "Long live! Banzai! The minister now takes refuge in Buddhism, listens to the teachings of Buddhism, and no longer dares to bully the king, just because this monster has changed into the appearance of a minister. ”

Explained the matter like this, "I hope you will tell the minister whether it is true or false!" Another Monkey King also stated the same. After hearing this, the Jade Emperor immediately sent a decree to the Heavenly King of Tota Li and said: "Take the demon mirror and take a picture of these two monkeys, who is real and who is fake, and the fake one will be destroyed immediately." ”

The King of Heaven immediately took a mirror and looked at the two Monkey Kings and invited the Jade Emperor to watch with the gods. I saw that in the mirror were the shadows of two Monkey Kings, with golden hoop clothes, and they were exactly the same. The Jade Emperor couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he immediately drove the two out of the palace. The great sage sneered, and Wukong was also happy, rubbing his head and wiping his neck, fighting each other out of the gate of heaven, falling on the western road and saying: "I will go with you to see Master, I will go with you to see Master!" ”

But it was said that the sand monk quit him from Huaguo Mountain, walked for three days and three nights, and returned to Tang Sanzang, so he told Tang Sanzang what he had seen. Tang Sanzang said with remorse: "At that time, I only said that Sun Wukong beat me and snatched the burden, but I didn't know that it was Wukong who was a monster and pretended to change!" ”

Monk Sha said again: "This monster has pretended to be a master again, a white horse, and another Bajie is carrying our burden, and another has changed into me. I couldn't help but be annoyed, and I was killed with a cane, and it turned out to be a monkey spirit. Therefore, he was dissipated and went to the Bodhisattva to complain. The Bodhisattva asked me and the senior brother to go to the bottom again, and the monster really looked like the senior brother. I can't help me, so I'll reply to Master first. ”

When Tang Sanzang heard this, he was shocked. Zhu Bajie laughed and said, "Good, good, good!" Fulfilled the words of the donor's mother-in-law! He said that there are several cases of learning from the scriptures, but isn't this another one? The old and young people of the family all came to ask Sha Seng: "Where have you been begging for the past few days?" Sha Seng said with a smile: "I went to Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou to find my senior brother to ask for luggage, and then went to Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea to meet Guanyin Bodhisattva, and then went to Huaguo Mountain before turning back here." ”

The old man asked, "How long is the round trip?" Sha Seng said: "About more than 200,000 li." The old man said: "Grandpa, in just these few days, I have walked so many roads, unless I am driving the clouds, I can do it!" Zhu Bajie said: "It's not driving clouds, how to cross the sea?" Sha Seng said: "We are slow, if it is my senior brother, only two or three followers, but you can go back." When the family heard this, they all said that it was a fairy, and Zhu Bajie said: "Although we are not immortals, the immortals are still our juniors!" While he was talking, he only heard the noise and shouting in mid-air, and they were so shocked that they all came out to see, but it was two Monkey Kings who came from fighting. When Zhu Bajie saw it, he couldn't help but itch his hands and said, "Wait for me to recognize it." Bajie jumped up in a hurry, looked at the sky and shouted: "Senior brother, don't shout, my old pig is here!" The two Monkey Kings responded together: "Idiot, come to fight monsters, come to fight monsters!" ”

The family was surprised and delighted: "It's a few arhats who are flying through the clouds and fog resting in my house!" Even those who make vows to fasting monks will not be able to fast such good people! He didn't care about the tea and rice, and made more offerings, and said: "These two walkers are only afraid that the fight will not be good, the world will be turned upside down, and the trouble will be there!" ”

Tang Sanzang saw that the old man was happy in front of him and worried behind him, so he said: "Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry." The poor monk ambushed his apprentice, and he returned evil to good, so he naturally thanked you. The old man replied, "Don't dare, don't dare!" Sha Seng said: "Donor Hugh, master can sit here, wait for me and the second senior brother, one by one to come to you, you will recite the "Tight Mantra", and see that the one that hurts is real, and the one that doesn't hurt is fake." ”

Tang Sanzang said: "It makes sense. Sha Seng then said in mid-air: "Stop and go with me to the master to distinguish the truth from the fake." The Great Sage stopped, and Wukong also put the golden hoop stick. Sha Seng hugged one and shouted, "Second Senior Brother, you also hold one." The two of them hugged one by one, fell from the clouds, and came to the door of the hut.

When Tang Sanzang saw it, he recited the "Tightening Mantra", and the two of them shouted bitterly together: "We are fighting so hard, what are you still cursing?" Mo Nian, Mo Nian! Tang Sanzang was charitable, and he didn't read it, but he didn't recognize the truth or falsehood. The two Monkey Kings broke free and still fought again. The great sage said: "Idiot, Senior Brother Sha, you protect the master, and when I fight with him in front of the king of Hades, I will break it to distinguish the truth from the fake!" That Wukong said the same, and the two pulled and tugged, and they disappeared after a while.

Zhu Bajie said: "Senior Brother Sha, since you went to the Water Curtain Cave and saw the fake Bajie carrying luggage, why didn't you grab it?" The sand monk said: "When the goblin saw that I made a treasure rod to beat him as a fake sand monk, he surrounded me and wanted to take me, but I took care of my life and fled." After telling the Bodhisattva, and the elder brother came to the entrance of the cave again, the two of them fought in the air, I went to overturn his stone bench, scattered his little demon, only to see a waterfall spring flow, I don't know where the door of the cave opens, I can't find the luggage, so I replied to the teacher's life empty-handed. ”

Zhu Bajie said: "It turns out that you don't know the cave door. When I asked him to go the year before, I met him outside the cave gate, and then I persuaded him, so he jumped down and went to the cave to change his clothes, and I saw him burrow into the water, and the waterfall was the cave door. Presumably, the monster has collected our baggage in there. ”

Tang Sanzang said: "Since you know this door, you can take advantage of his absence at home, you can go to his cave first to take out the baggage, and let's go to the west sky." He's coming, and I'm not asking for him anymore. Bajie said, "I'll go." Sha Seng said: "Second senior brother, there are thousands of little monkeys in front of his cave, I am afraid that you alone will not be able to get it, but it is not beautiful." Bajie smiled: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Then he went out, drove the clouds and mist, and went to Huaguo Mountain to find his luggage.

It is said that the two Monkey Kings fought behind Yin Mountain again, and the ghosts who were full of mountains trembled and hid. One of them ran first, crashed into the Yin Si Gate, and reported in the Senluo Treasure Palace: "King, on the Yin Mountain, there are two Monkey King fighting and coming!" "I was so shocked that the first hall of King Qin Guang sent a report to the second hall of Chujiang King, the third hall of the Song Emperor, the fourth hall of Bian Cheng King, the fifth hall of the Yama King, the sixth hall of the Equality King, the seventh hall of the King of Taishan, the eighth hall of the city king, the ninth hall of the official king, and the tenth hall of the wheel king. One hall turned to another, and in an instant, the ten kings arrived, and then they sent someone to report to the king of Jizo.

It's all on the Senluo Palace, gathering Yin soldiers and ghost generals, waiting for the real and false Monkey King. I only heard the strong wind rolling, the miserable fog was full, and the two Monkey Kings rolled over and over, fighting to His Royal Highness Sen Luo.
