Chapter 917: The Immeasurable Dao Man is Caught
It is said that Tang Seng and Ma Fan said goodbye to Xiao Lei Yin Temple, not a day, after eight hundred Huang Feng Ling, on the way, Ma Fan chatted with Tang Seng a few words, and asked very curiously: "Elder Tang, if the Tibetan scripture building of Xiao Lei Yin Temple is not destroyed, they gave you Tang Seng the true scriptures, let you bring them back to the Tang Dynasty, will you really come back to marry that goblin?"
Tang Seng shook his head and said, "Naturally, it won't." ”
Ma Fan said: "But you have already promised others, if you take the scriptures and don't come back, isn't that just deceiving people?"
Tang Seng said with a serious face: "I originally planned to deceive the female benefactor, or the female benefactor woke me up, the monks should have the spirit of sacrifice, in order to obtain the true scriptures, in order to save the people of the Tang Dynasty from fire and water, I will sacrifice some reputation, why not break the vows and deceive people." ”
Ma Fan couldn't help but say, "Then why don't you sacrifice your hue?"
Tang Seng said: "Even if I sacrifice my hue, my reputation will not be guaranteed, and I am afraid that I will be forced to eat meat and drink wine in the future, and I even need to deceive people and watch killing, and break the vows more, so I might as well only break the precepts and deceive the female benefactor."
Besides, if the scripture is really taken back and widely praised, it will also accumulate immeasurable merit for the female benefactor, but I am deceived for her good, and I have a clear conscience when I deceive. ”
Ma Fan couldn't help but fall.
After a few people went all the way to the west, unconsciously for another two or three months, the weather was gradual, through the summer and autumn, I saw some cold cicadas singing and defeating the willows, but the road was also peaceful all the way, and I didn't meet any monsters.
After such a period of practice, Ma Fan's mana has recovered quickly, and it has recovered to the level of the late stage of the transformation of the gods, but Dan's body has recovered slowly, and now the rest are some stubborn diseases, if you simply rely on yourself to adjust with mana. Without the help of other treasures, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make a breakthrough for a long time, but Ma Fan is looking forward to the ginseng fruit of Wuzhuang Guan more and more.
Of course, Ma Fan also knows that Xiniu Hezhou is very big, and now it is still not a short distance from Wuzhuang Guan. But he couldn't be in a hurry, but Ma Fan estimated that after walking for so long, the quicksand river was probably not far away.
Sure enough, on this day, at the right place, I saw a big water raging, turbulent waves, and the river was very big. The water is wide, I am afraid that it is more than 800 miles wide, and the river is extremely turbid, and there is a lot of sediment in it.
Zhu Bajie was the generalissimo of the navy back then, and he was naturally familiar with the water system in the world. Naturally, he knew that this was the quicksand river, and he was a close confidant of the Jade Emperor. Knowing that there is a general who has been deliberately demoted down in this river, he is his own person, and he will worship Tang Seng as a teacher like him, all the way west, to assist him in destroying the scriptures, but he does not show it.
The two of them were silent. The others don't know about this river, especially Gohan, who used to be the king of the mountain, and rarely encountered water, let alone seen this kind of big river. When I saw this river, I felt comfortable and informed, but I was also faintly afraid.
Tang Seng immediately saw that the river was wide, and immediately shouted: "Apprentice, you see that the water in front of you is wide, why don't you see the boat walking, let's go from there?"
Sun Wukong flew in the air, looking around, he also said in shock: "Master, it's really difficult, it's really difficult! If this river talks about Lao Sun, he just twists his waist and passes; if Master, it is difficult to cross a thousand times, and it is difficult to travel for thousands of years." ”
Tang Seng said: "I have a boundless view here, how wide is the end?"
Sun Wukong said: "The trail is 800 miles away. ”
Bajie said: "How can my brother set a number of distances?"
Sun Wukong said: "Don't hide it from the virtuous brother, Lao Sun's eyes often see the good luck and evil on the road for thousands of miles during the day." But I saw in the air: I don't know how far this river is, but I see that this path is 800 miles. ”
"With such a big river and no human habitation, I'm afraid there will be monsters doing evil in the water. Ma Fan deliberately pretended to be nervous and kindly reminded him.
"How is this good?" After so many things, Tang Seng knew that Ma Fan was not an ordinary person, and he was still more convinced of his words, but when he said this, he couldn't help but feel worried and troubled in his heart.
At this time, Zhu Bajie suddenly said loudly: "Master, you see there is a monument in front of you. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look, but the sword really had a big stone tablet standing not far away, and when several people came to see it, they saw that there were three seal characters, which were quicksand rivers, and there were small four lines of true words on the abdomen: eight hundred quicksand, eight hundred quicksand boundaries, and three thousand weak water depths. The goose feathers can't float, and the reed flowers sink at the bottom.
A few people were looking at the inscription, only to hear the loud sound in the river, and then they saw the waves surging like mountains, the waves were like mountains, and a fairy came out of the river.
I saw that the monster was full of messy hair as bright red as a red flame, two round eyes were bright like lights, a blue indigo face, wearing a collar of goose yellow, the waist was tied with white vines, there were nine skeletons hanging under the head, holding a treasure staff very grandiose, and constantly yelling, the roar was as deafening as thunder, it looked extremely fierce, but it was almost similar to the sand roller blinds that Ma Fan saw in the sky back then.
Seeing that this monster was about to come up, Zhu Bajie hurriedly pulled it out and greeted the monster, and Gohan also hurriedly went up to help, but because Zhu Bajie released water, and Gohan dropped his burden and hurriedly met it, he was not prepared enough, and he was easily broken through by the monster.
After the monster broke through the defense of Zhu Bajie and Gohan, he suddenly opened his mouth and made a whirlwind, and rolled towards Tang Seng, Sun Wukong secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly hugged Tang Seng and flew high behind, and immediately escaped, and the whirlwind suddenly fell on Ma Fan's head.
Ma Fan was watching all this with the mentality of watching a play, but suddenly saw a whirlwind rolling towards him, and he was also shocked, and hurriedly pinched a few tricks and made a few layers of protection for himself, and then he only felt a light on his body, and was swept into Hanoi by the monster.
When he arrived at the bottom of the river, the monster saw that the flowing water automatically separated around Ma Fan, and couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Hey, your water avoidance spell can actually drain the weak water, but it is extremely extraordinary, it seems that it must be from a famous family." ”
Ma Fan said with a smile: "Poor Dao is from a sectarian background, and he has been an official in heaven for a few days, so it would be good if he came from a famous family." ”
As soon as the monster heard that he had been an official in the sky, he immediately became interested, and asked, "When did you become an official in the heavens, and what is your official position?"
Ma Fan said with a smile: "More than three hundred years ago, I was named a purple gold Guanglu doctor by the Jade Emperor, but I was deposed within a few days. ”
When the monster heard this, he was immediately shocked, and hurriedly put Ma Fan on the ground to do a good job, carefully took him and looked at him a few times, and then bowed down to him and said: "Oh, I didn't expect it to be Lord Ma in person, I have offended a lot before, and I hope to forgive me." ”
Ma Fan was also happy to see that he had recognized himself, but he still deliberately asked with a puzzled look: "Who are you?
The monster said: "More than three hundred years ago, the villain was a guard in the sky, and after the adult was named the doctor of Zijin Guanglu, the villain was fortunate to wait for a few days, and then I heard that the adult and the Jade Emperor recommended the villain, and the villain was promoted to the general of the heavenly palace, I don't know if the adult has an impression?"
Ma Fan hurriedly pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and couldn't help but say: "It turned out to be Brother Sha, I hit you off at first sight, so I naturally remember you, but since you have been promoted to the general of the Heavenly Palace, why did you come to this river and become like this?"
"It's just that I accidentally broke the glass jar by mistake, violated the rules of heaven, was demoted from the heavenly realm, and became a monster here. Lao Sha said with a ashamed face.
Ma Fan nodded and said: "I see, then what are your plans now, do you want to be a monster here all the time?" Of course, I don't mean to be a monster a lot, but I look at you as a monster and seem to be a little cold, I just feel that this profession doesn't seem to be suitable for you." ”
Lao Sha nodded and said: "Over the years, I have made waves in this quicksand river, eating passers-by, but I also feel that it is not a long-term plan, just three years ago when Maitreya Buddha passed through here, he pointed me a famous way, and asked me to escort the Tang Dynasty Monk to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, and get a positive result in the future, and now I want to change my mind and follow the Tang Dynasty Monk to the West Heaven to learn scriptures." ”
Ma Fan smiled: "Haha, I still treat you as a big brother, and you deceive me like this?"
Lao Sha hurriedly said: "Master Ma can be said to have known me back then, how dare I deceive you?"
Ma Fan said with a smile: "Hehehe, there are no people all around here, I am afraid that there are few monks passing by on weekdays, and the clothes of the monks nearby are different from the clothes of the monks in the distance, I don't believe you can't see that the monks above are monks from the Tang Dynasty, since you have been enlightened, you want to protect the Tang Dynasty holy monks to go to the west to learn scriptures, why don't you start with them without saying anything, and directly cross Zhu Bajie and Wuhan, and move towards the Tang Tang monks?"
A hint of discoloration flashed in Lao Sha's eyes, and he turned back to his original state, and said with a smile: "Hey, is it the holy monk from the Tang Dynasty in the East to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, it is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple." ”
Ma Fan smiled: "Haha, I just want to ask you to see what your purpose is, and I may be able to help you in the future, since you don't want to say it, forget it." ”
Lao Sha suddenly said nervously: "My purpose is to escort the Tang Dynasty holy monk to the west to learn scriptures, where is there any other purpose, but adults can't talk nonsense." ”
Ma Fan said: "Well, I can't say it if I want you to believe me, you don't want to say it, but I want to tell you, in fact, I have a good relationship with the Jade Emperor, and I don't want to learn the scriptures will be completed according to the ideas of Buddhism. ”
Lao Sha smiled and said: "Haha, my lord said that I was joking, but if it is really the team sent by the Tang Dynasty to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures in the West, please take me to meet it." ”
Ma Fan couldn't help but say: "You are so boring, even more boring than that Zhu Bajie." ”
When Sha Seng heard this, he just smiled innocently, but there was a complicated light in his eyes. (To be continued......)
