Weird!

In this village, the doors of the houses are closed, and there is not even a dog on the road, which seems extremely abnormal.

The four masters and apprentices walked around the village for a long time, and finally saw a large mansion with an open door at the intersection in front of them.

There is a banner erected at the door of this house, and there is a faint Zen fragrance inside, and the sound of wooden fish and chanting is also coming from inside, it seems that there is a funeral at home.

Xie Yun stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper trotted out from inside.

He held the Buddha beads in his hand, chanted Amitabha Buddha in his mouth, and did not look at people, and when he opened his mouth, he complained: "You monk, if you want to do things, you don't come to ...... early."

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Xie Yun shook his head, his voice was like Huang Zhong Dalu, waking up the housekeeper.

"Dao Chief?"

"Poor road and eight wilderness, passing by here, I came to stay, and behind me are my three unsuccessful apprentices. ”

The housekeeper looked at Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, and turned around in horror to run, but was directly stopped by Xie Yun.

"Donor, the poor road came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty and went to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, this is the three apprentices I received, although they are monsters, but their character is okay and does not hurt people. ”

"Dao Chief, will you pray for blessings?" The housekeeper trembled and asked tentatively: "As long as you pray for blessings, my lord will not only take care of the rice, but also give three liters of cooked rice, one foot of white cloth, and ten copper coins." ”

"What are you praying for?" Xie Yun asked with a frown.

The housekeeper sighed and said helplessly, "Give my young lady and son a ride." ”

"Mourning, don't give to the poor, pray for free. Xie Yunji said.

The housekeeper hurriedly opened the door, happily welcomed the four of them in, and shouted, "Master, another Taoist chief has come to pray for the blessing of our young lady." ”

When they entered the hall, they saw seven or eight monks gathered together, chanting sutras.

Zhu Bajie stepped forward happily and asked, "What scriptures are you reciting?"

When the monks opened their eyes, they saw Zhu Bajie's mouth with long ears and big ears, thick body and wide back, and his voice was like thunder, and they saw Sun Wukong's sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, and the sand monk looked extremely ugly, and no one was afraid, and it was a mess.

"What are you running, I don't eat people, old pigs!" Zhu Bajie said depressedly.

When the monks heard this, they became more and more frightened, kowtowed, shouted monsters, and ran for their lives, blinking their eyes and running cleanly.

"What's the noise?" said an old man from the back room, with a cane in his hand.

After he saw Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, he collapsed in the Taishi chair, shouting that good people are not rewarded, and the monsters in the river have not been sent away, and there are new monsters.

Bang!

Xie Yun kicked the three apprentices out of the house, and explained to the old man with a dark face: "Donor, those three are poor apprentices, don't hurt people, what kind of monsters in the river are you talking about?"

The old man wept, took Xie Yun's hand, and said the words of grievance for a long time.

It turned out that this was Chenjiazhuang, Yuanhui County, Chechi Guo, he was the local patriarch, known as Master Chen.

Fifty years ago, a goldfish spirit ran down from the upper reaches of the Tongtian River, since the king of inspiration, built a temple on the bank of the Tongtian River, and enshrined the Guanyin Bodhisattva, as long as it is enshrined on time, he can bless a hundred miles in a radius, and the wind and rain are smooth.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Xie Yun was puzzled.

Master Chen jumped to beat his chest, and scolded with a cane: "What's good, that monster wants to worship a boy and a girl, and this year it will be my family's turn to worship him." ”

"I have done good all my life, but my children are difficult, I am nearly fifty years old, and I only have an eighteen-year-old young daughter under my knees, named Yiliang Jin, and I will send it to the mouth of the monster tonight, and my heart hurts!"

Bang!

Xie Yun slapped the table and said angrily: "Don't worry, the old donor, as a monk, if you encounter such an evil thing, you must take care of it." ”

"Dao Chief, that monster has great powers. Master Chen said worriedly.

"The bullshit's magical powers are vast, and a single finger of the poor road can poke him to death. After Xie Yun comforted Master Chen, the fire of gossip ignited in his eyes and asked, "Why does your daughter call a scale of gold?"

"Dao Chief, little old man, when I do good deeds, I will keep accounts. What to repair the bridge and repair the road, build a temple and set up a tower, give alms to monks, use three taels here, use five taels there, and wait until the girl is born, a calculation, exactly use thirty taels of gold, thirty catties for a scale, so called a scale of gold. ”

"Who said that good deeds are rewarded, and after spending thirty catties of gold, he changed to a daughter, and he didn't even have a son. Old Man Chen was indignant.

Xie Yun was speechless, from a scientific point of view, the matter of giving birth to a boy and a girl is decided by the man, you ask God and Buddha, you really give birth to a son, do you dare to admit it?

"If there is a virgin, what about the virgin?"

Master Chen gritted his teeth and said: "My brother's family has a son, seven years old this year, named Chen Guanbao, who is also an only son and a single seedling, who has been smart since he was a child, but he has no choice but to be favored by the king of inspiration, so he can only give it. ”

"Tonight the monster is going to come to my house to take away the boy and the girl, and the two of us can't stop it, so we can only hold a supernatal puja for the child first. ”

"Tonight, it's still early, it's too late. "Xie Yun has taken over the heavy responsibility of catching demons.

Master Chen was overjoyed, and set up a banquet on the spot, with enough wine and food, to entertain the four masters and apprentices.

The Chen family is also one of the most wealthy families within a radius of 100 miles, with 40 or 50 hectares of paddy fields, 70 or 80 hectares of dry land, 80 or 90 pastures, thousands of cattle and sheep, and countless chickens and ducks.

The cooks at home are all invited with a lot of money, and their cooking skills are superb.

The four masters and apprentices were tired of Xiong Da's craftsmanship, and occasionally ate this mortal meal, feeling that it had a different flavor, and suddenly had a great appetite.

Especially Zhu Bajie, holding a red lacquered wooden bowl, a bowl full of white rice, covered with vegetables, poured it into his mouth, and swallowed it in two bites.

The servant next to him added seven or eight times in a row to the meal, and then he was blinded.

"This Taoist chief didn't calculate, if he didn't take the steamed buns, how could he cage white rice, and he wasn't afraid of dirty sleeves?"

Zhu Bajie patted his big belly proudly and said, "Who caged, I ate it!"

The little servant doesn't believe it!

"Look, let's fill another bowl!" Zhu Bajie had a big mouth, poured a bowl of white rice into his mouth, closed his mouth, and swallowed it.

Seeing this, several servants were about to pop out of their eyes, and said in unison: "This Taoist chief has a good amount of food, this is a brick-grinding throat, amazing!"

At the end of a meal, the empty plates and empty bowls were always one person high, and the cook and the servant serving the rice in Chenjiazhuang were tired and collapsed on the ground.

Zhu Bajie burped, picked between his teeth with a smaller nine-tooth nail rake, and said, "Master, Shutan, why didn't you say that I could eat today?"

"Eat other people's short mouths, take other people's soft hands, Bajie, today you are ready to be a sacrifice for Chen Laohan's daughter, let's go. Xie Yun said with a smile.

Zhu Bajie had a bitter face and said very reluctantly: "Master, do you want to feed my old pig to the monsters?"

"Master, otherwise let's change someone, the third junior brother has thick skin, and the monster is afraid that it won't be able to bite!" Sun Wukong didn't hold back and laughed out loud.

"Wukong, don't laugh, you will be a sacrifice for Chen Guanbao later, and accompany your junior brother for a while. Xie Yun poured cold water on Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong is stupid, retribution comes too quickly, like a tornado, not giving people the slightest defense!!

Bang!

Xie Yun looked at the two bitter gourd-faced apprentices, kicked them over, and scolded with hatred: "You two Da Luo Jin Immortals, afraid of a bird monster?"
