It is said that after Ma Fan and his party crossed the Heishui River, they looked for the road and walked westward, because it had entered the winter, so they didn't walk for a few days, but it was snowing heavily in the sky.

The winter of Xiniu Hezhou is unusually cold, and the heavy snow is much larger than that of Nanzhan Buzhou, but fortunately, Tang Seng is not as weak as before, and none of the people in the group are ordinary people, and the white dragon horse has obtained the dragon ball, which is not comparable to ordinary horses, so everyone can brave the heavy snow to advance, and they can travel hundreds of miles every day, and the speed is not much slower than before.

On this day, several people were braving the heavy snow to rush the road, and suddenly the hooves of the white dragon horse seemed to touch something as hard, and everyone suddenly stopped, and it turned out to be a frozen corpse.

"It's a frozen corpse, it's dead, it's lifeless. Zhu Bajie said first.

Sha Seng was surprised and said, "Hey, it's actually a monk!"

"I don't know which temple it is, it's too poor, I only wear such thin and tattered clothes to go out this season," Zhu Bajie spoke here.

Sun Wukong nodded and said: "Yes, there is cultivation in the body, if the cultivation cannot reach a certain level, at this time you have to wear a coat, wrapped firmly, look at this monk does not look like a cultivator, wear such a little clothes, it is strange not to be frozen to death." ”

"Amitabha! It's really pitiful! Since we are both from the Buddhist sect, we met again, but we can't ignore it, Wujing, you dig a pit and bury him!" Tang Seng also spoke.

Sha Seng was really obedient and rotated the crescent shovel, used the mana, shoveled down, eradicated a big pit on the side of the road, carried the frozen monk into the pit, and then returned the surrounding soil and buried the monk hastily.

Tang Seng is more than eyes. After reciting a scripture and surpassing the soul, he saw that the snow had buried the land here, so he beckoned a few people to move forward.

In the wind and snow, a group of people and horses braved the wind and snow and advanced on the road. didn't go far, and Sun Wukong, who was walking in the front, said loudly: "There is also a corpse here." ”

With that, he hooked his foot, and a corpse was drawn from under the thick snow.

"Hey, this is also a monk, and his clothes are very thin, I'm afraid it's the same temple as the one just now, and I don't know what kind of temple it is, and it's so poor. ”

Sha Seng said: "It's a cold day. Why are these monks running out?"

Zhu Bajie said: "This still needs to be asked, seeing them dressed like this, there must be no food in the temple, and they must be hungry and panicked." ”

Tang Seng nodded and said: "That temple should not be far from here, you all pay attention to it, if you see it, we will go in and rest for the night, and by the way, leave them some clothes, money and food, so that they can survive this winter." ”

Zhu Bajie said: "Master." We're not rich, and you see my robe is old like this, and I haven't been able to change it. How can we have extra clothing, money, and food to help them!"

Tang Seng said: "Saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, we are also Buddhist disciples, how can we look at this temple in such a miserable state and not save it?"

Anyway, we are all cultivated, and we only need a little single clothes to cover our shame, so what do we need to do with so many clothes?

Besides, let's go to a distant place. It's much easier than them, give up money, food and clothing, and let's go forward and find a good family. ”

At this moment, Ma Fan suddenly smiled and said, "The master is really merciful, but I don't think it will be broken and sold unless Brother Monkey's golden hoop stick becomes bigger." Otherwise, you will give up all your wealth, and I am afraid that you will not be able to save those monks. ”

Sha Seng asked, "Weishenme?"

Ma Fan smiled: "Go a little further ahead, and you will naturally know." ”

"Forward?" Tang Seng said softly, then his eyes flashed with golden light, and he looked ahead, his face suddenly became ugly.

Since Tang Seng awakened the memories of previous lives and had a body of ability, Zhu Bajie knew that his strength could not be hidden, and he had also reached an agreement with Sun Wukong and Ma Fan, so there was no need to hide anything, but now he also chanted a mantra and cast a technique of insight into the wall in the thirty-six changes of Tiangang, his eyes penetrated the heavy snow, looked ahead, and his face suddenly showed a look of astonishment.

Sun Wukong's eyes also shot a divine light, but he used his fiery eyes to look ahead, but after seeing it, his face was extremely solemn.

Sha Seng didn't have the means of a few of them, but he couldn't see what was in front of him, but looking at the expressions of Tang Seng, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, he became more and more curious in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "Senior brother, what's wrong, what's ahead?"

Sun Wukong said: "It's some monks." ”

"Monks?" said the sand monk, "Is there any difference between these monks?"

Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "You will know when you get to the front." ”

Immediately, a few people continued to walk forward, but along the way they saw a lot of monks who froze to death, they were all like the previous ones, their clothes were tattered and thin, every time they met a monk who froze to death, Tang Seng let the sand monk dig a pit and bury it, and also read a scripture to spend a time.

In this way, after walking a distance of about 100 miles, everyone had heard a faint noisy sound coming from the front, but listening to the voice, it was as if there were tens of millions of people shouting together in front, Sha Seng vaguely thought of something, and his face became complicated.

As the crowd continued to move forward, the sound in front of them became louder and louder, and after another thirty or forty miles, the sound was already like a landslide.

Sha Seng said: "It sounds like a shout of work, but this sound is like a thunderbolt, I'm afraid there are more than 10,000 people, such a cold weather, it's really evil." ”

Everyone did not answer Sha Seng's words, but walked forward silently, and after turning over a small hill, several people saw that there were dense monks not far in front of them, and they didn't know how many monks were pulling carts there to climb a big slope, and those cars were loaded with bricks, tiles, wood, adobe and other things, and they seemed to want to transport those things to the slope from the ridge path with a huge slope.

The voice that everyone heard just now was made by these monks who were all working together and shouting "Hercules Bodhisattva".

Seeing that those monks were all extremely thin, in such a cold weather, they were all wearing only blue and thin monk robes, although they were trying hard, but they were all cold and their faces turned blue.

Seeing this scene, Sha Seng said: "These monks want to build a temple? Even if they are in a hurry to complete the construction, they don't have to come out to work in such a cold day, and the management of this temple is too harsh, if you have the money to build a temple on such a large scale, why can't you come and add some clothes and food to these monks." ”

Zhu Bajie smiled: "Hehehe, junior brother, have you forgotten what those monks said in the Wuji National Treasure Lin Temple?"

Hearing Zhu Bajie's question, Sha Seng was slightly stunned at first, then shocked, and asked: "Second Senior Brother, are you saying that the status of monks in this country is extremely low like that of Wuji Country, they are not trying to build a temple, but they are forced to come out to do hard work and cover other things?"

Zhu Bajie nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, didn't you see those few Taoists in the distance, obviously they are monitoring the work of these monks, but the monks in this country are more difficult than those in the Wuji country." ”

Sha Seng listened to Zhu Bajie's words, followed Zhu Bajie's gaze, and sure enough, he saw several Taoists standing behind.

These Taoists wore star crowns on their heads, wore thick cotton robes, wore star crowns on their heads, and wore splendid colorful clouds. Stepping on the clouds, the waist is tied with familiar silk, and all of them have bright eyes, but they all have cultivation above the gods.

Whenever the eyes of these Taoist priests swept over, the monks suddenly trembled one by one, redoubled their efforts, and dragged the car fiercely.

"Amitabha, isn't this spiritual mountain in the West Niu Hezhou already moved to another place? Tang Seng couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, those not far away also found their group, only to see that two of the several Taoist priests suddenly flew up and flew towards Ma Fan and the others.

Soon, the two of them fell down in front of Ma Fan and the others, and then a Taoist asked coldly: "Seeing that your appearance is not like your own people, where are you monks from?"

Tang Seng said: "Amitabha, the two Taoist masters are polite, we are from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and we went to the West to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures." ”

"Datang came, but I seem to have heard that there is such a group of monks passing by. The Taoist priest muttered to himself.

At this time, he only felt the tightness of his robe, and knew that it was his companion who pulled his clothes, and was about to turn his head and ask his companion what he was doing with his clothes, when he suddenly saw his companion suddenly kneel on the ground with a snap, kowtow and said: "Disciple to meet the immeasurable Tianzun, the Tianzun has a long life." ”

The one who occupied it saw this scene, but he remembered that someone had instructed him before, saying that the monk who would go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures with the Tang Dynasty would come here today, so that all the Taoists would pay attention.

This Taoist person looked behind Tang Seng and the others, and saw that there was indeed a person with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, the eighteen-year-old Taoist was exactly the same as the immeasurable Tianzun enshrined in the temple, he only felt a "buzz" in his head, and the whole person was dizzy, and his breathing seemed to be a little unpleasant.

"Smack!" The man only felt a softness under his feet, and immediately knelt down, but he couldn't say anything, only kowtowed.

Seeing this, Ma Fan smiled lightly and said, "Get up!"

Only then did the two Taoists tremble and support each other to occupy them, and said to Ma Fan respectfully: "I will immediately go to report the news of the arrival of the family master Tianzun, and they and the king will definitely come out to greet them immediately." ”

Ma Fan smiled: "No need, we can go into the city by ourselves, but I have a few questions for you and so on." ”

The two of them said respectfully: "Tianzun, please ask, as long as we know, we must know everything." ”

Ma Fan asked, "I just arrived here, but I don't know what the name of this place is. ”

A Taoist priest said, "This place is the capital of Chechi. (To be continued......)
