Chapter 3 This peach has a great fate
Buildings such as mountain temples and land temples are quite common in the land of the Tang Dynasty.
Since Master Xuanzang retrieved the scriptures and promoted Buddhism, many legends of gods and Buddhas in the world have become more and more prosperous.
Whether it is a Buddhist temple or a dojo, they are all over the world.
Even places of worship such as mountain temples can be seen everywhere.
These semi-folk and semi-official temples, even if the incense is not good, can also be used as a post station and a place for displaced people at some times, and the more the better.
At night.
Yuan Kang looked at the mountain temple not far away.
The appearance of this temple is old, and it seems to be quite old. The main hall, the side hall, the broken courtyard wall and so on are readily available.
There are a few passing vendors at the entrance of the temple, and the lights in the temple are bright, and there are many passers-by resting.
Yuan Kang first fled to the remote courtyard wall, broke away from the spell, and restored his original appearance.
After tidying up his ragged clothes and smearing a handful of black ash to cover his face, he slowly approached the mountain temple again.
After entering the temple gate, many eyes looked over.
Yuan Kang looked at it silently.
There are about 20 people standing or sitting in the temple, most of them are passers-by and traders who are temporarily resting. Occasionally, there are a few permanent beggars and vagabonds.
There was a fire on the ground, and the wood crackled and burned, gushing out warmth.
Yuan Kang found a secluded corner and rested against the wall.
No "question mark" has been found in this temple, so we can only continue to look for the next one.
After the spell is restored, find an opportunity to get some food to fill your hunger.
The temple is quite quiet.
Acquaintances sat together and whispered, some were either sorting out their bags, or shaking their heads with books, and a few even washed the crockpots and prepared to cook soup and rice.
Yuan Kang watched all this.
Until this moment, looking at the ancient temple costumes and listening to the dialects and ancient languages, he really felt that he was indeed in the ancient Tang Dynasty.
"It is now the first year of the heir saint, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi died, and Empress Wu listened to the government. It seems that in history, within a few years, Empress Wu changed the dynasty to the emperor ......"
"Hey, why are there still stories of rebellion among the relatives and rebellions of the kings?"
Yuan Kang recalled his own historical knowledge, but when he searched the memory of the original owner, he found that history had changed. Now the government of the Empress Wu is unstable, the kings of the world are in turmoil, and the land of the Tang Dynasty is full of wars.
In other words, this is not the Tang Dynasty that I am familiar with......
Yuan Kang pondered silently.
Suddenly!
There was a commotion in the mountain temple.
Yuan Kang raised his eyes and couldn't help but be stunned.
At the table in front of me, I don't know when, an old monkey sat on.
The old monkey has a hairy face, a thunderous mouth, white eyebrows, and a human-like body. The shoes are ragged, the hair is sparse, and the skin is scarred. Wearing a string of filthy Buddha beads between the necks, he looks poor and destitute.
Its yellow, cloudy eyes, always open and closed, only stretched out its withered arms, sharp as the fingers of a bird's claws, and slapped them on the offering table.
Bang –
The temple is full of silence.
"You must have all heard the story about him......"
The old monkey's voice was low. Every word is sent to everyone's ears, as if they are being spoken in the ears.
The crowd was even more silent.
"Some people say that he helped Tang Seng get the true scriptures. Sealed the fight to defeat the Buddha, and since then, he has stayed in Lingshan ......"
"Some people say that it was not him who became a Buddha at all. The real him has long since disappeared on the westbound road and ceased to exist......"
"Some people also say that the story of Journey to the West is just apocryphal, and such a thrilling thing has never happened, and it is difficult to understand the falsehood......"
The old monkey's dim and cloudy eyes slowly swept past everyone, with a slight sneer, a slight sigh, and said slowly:
"But the story I'm going to tell, you must not have heard ......"
Its voice did not fall.
Bang Dong –
A broken bowl was smashed to the ground, splintering in all directions.
Several vendors stood up and scolded:
"It has been nearly thirty years since Master Xuanzang retrieved the true scriptures. We've already heard your story, so what's there to tell!"
"Now that the Tang Dynasty is at war everywhere, and the people are not making a living, who still listens to the stories of learning scriptures? Sanzang Scripture Town is in Chang'an, and there is no smooth wind and rain, you old monkey don't hurry up!"
"There are a lot of monsters in Chang'an City who cheat money! Since the journey to the west, the emperor has allowed some monkey demons to enter the city, don't you treat yourself as a demon?"
"Noisy ......"
"Go down......"
"Get out of the way......"
The crowd immediately started an uproar, and they didn't want to hear the old monkey continue.
The old monkey's face was full of embarrassment.
A certain high-roller who was snorting melon seeds next to him drove the old monkey off the stage, approached and whispered:
"Not far from this temple, there is a fruit forest. If you go quickly, you may be able to catch a lot of fruit to eat. It's better than begging here and getting bored. ”
"Really!" the old monkey's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the melon seeds in the hands of the high-rollers, then lifted the corners of his tattered robes, and ran out.
Yuan Kang was dumbfounded throughout the whole process.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a "question mark" on the top of the old monkey's head!
The "question mark" is blue, looming over the old monkey's head.
Yuan Kang immediately made a decision, picked up a stick on the ground, and hurriedly chased out.
The old monkey was not fast, and not far from the mountain temple, he stopped and stopped under an old tree.
It turned its head, looked at Yuan Kang who had caught up with him for a long time, and arched his hand: "Donor, what's the matter?"
Yuan Kang clenched the stick, frowned at the old monkey, and asked in a low voice:
"Who the hell are you?"
"Humph......"
The old monkey seemed to be smiling, but also looked at Yuan Kang a few times, and continued to say in a low and vicissitudes of tone:
The old body has been wandering in Chang'an for many years, and finally waited for someone to ask this. ”
It looked at the night sky from afar, and its face was complex. In the dim and cloudy eyes, there seemed to be a faint golden light, and the whole expression seemed to be reborn, and he said in a deep voice:
"Yes, I am the Monkey King......
Yuan Kang was shocked!
"Marshal Monkey under the command of the Monkey King......"
Yuan Kang: ......
"The descendants of the old monkey man in the 99th road monkey barracks under Marshal Horse Monkey under the macaque general are also ......."
Yuan Kang listened and turned around and left.
"Eh, eh!" the old monkey beckoned and jumped to his feet, and hurriedly caught up with him, and said hurriedly:
"Someone who is destined, you listen to me!"
"Don't you go, where are you going?"
Yuan Kang didn't look back, and threw down a sentence: "I'll wait for the next monkey." ”
The old monkey scratched his ears and cheeks, walked like a fly, rushed to Yuan Kang to block it, and his face was full of wrinkles and squeezed into a pile of wry smiles:
"You are really my destined person, I don't lie to you!"
Yuan Kang held the stick, stared at the blue "question mark" above the old monkey's head, thought about it, and said:
"Why should I trust you?"
"If there is a fate or not, you will know it at first sight!" The old monkey's face became serious again, and he groped in the rags for a long time, took out a shriveled peach, and handed it to Yuan Kang.
Yuan Kang took the peach and looked at it suspiciously.
I don't know how long this peach has been left unfed, and it is almost green mold.
But at the moment when Yuan Kang came into contact, a line of small words appeared on the back of the peach.
Chinese characters!
Simplified!
It reads: "Who is Luo Tianyi's sound source provider?"
Yuan Kang blew up on the spot......
The ...... buzzing in my head
Thousands of horses galloped and ran over them......
What the hell is going on here???
Yuan Kang raised his head violently and looked at the sky, it was the sky of the Tang Dynasty. Looking around, it was the land of the Tang Dynasty. I looked at myself, and I was wearing the clothes of the Tang Dynasty.
"This peach, is, who, give, you, of?"
Yuan Kang gritted his teeth, stared at the old monkey fiercely, and clenched the stick, already grasping his five fingers white.
The old monkey still looked at Yuan Kang with a smile:
"Don't look at me, I don't know what's on this peach. Even if I sometimes see half a word, I don't understand it and don't know what it means. ”
"It was a senior who asked me to go to Chang'an to find someone who was destined, whether it was fate, I would know when I saw this peach. Don't ask who your predecessor is, he is also an old monkey, and he is already dead. ”
"And then?" Yuan Kang lifted the stick, with a murderous aura.
The old monkey hurriedly waved his hand and said:
The old monkey said that if there is fate, you will know the answer to the mystery at a glance. Then, tell the mystery to this peach, and there will be a fate. ”
"What if I don't say it?" said Yuan Kang suddenly.
The old monkey was stunned:
"Why don't you say it? This peach has a big fate! You just need to tell the mystery ......."
The voice did not fall.
Yuan Kang threw the peach to the old monkey, turned around and left.
"Oops!" the old monkey was frightened, angry, and anxious, scratching his ears and cheeks, and jumping to his feet, and was about to continue chasing.
Yuan Kang lifted the stick and said without looking back:
"I don't want this fate, you come with me again, and beat you with a peach blossom on your face!"
The old monkey immediately stopped.
