At night, there was heavy snow outside the house, and the fire was burning in the main hall.

The monkey sat cross-legged in a corner of the main hall, lighting an oil lamp, facing the stack of exercises.

The others were all on the other side.

With his eyes closed, he began to try to perceive the aura of heaven and earth according to what was written in the exercises.

The first step in cultivation is to perceive the aura of heaven and earth.

Perceiving the aura of heaven and earth, being able to absorb the aura of heaven and earth into the body and refine oneself is the sign of the realm of condensation. At this stage, we are actually laying the foundation for future practice. Although he doesn't have any supernatural powers, it is the most basic sign of being a monk.

However, even this first stage is now a great problem for monkeys. The most important thing is that he can't understand at least half of those exercises, so he can only rely on guessing, and there is no one to guide him, so he can only try desperately.

Fortunately, just a few days ago, he vaguely felt something different.

Closing his eyes, he could feel his surroundings, and in addition to the most basic sounds, the touch of his body, there was a faint, mist-like thing. As the mist flowed, he could even close his eyes and feel the things around him.

It was a world without color, only silhouettes.

The discovery made the monkey excited, but after that day, he never made it to that world again.

"Is there something wrong?" he struggled to remember, scratching his head.

Finally, after a few days of tossing, he finally felt that he was about to enter that world again.

Quietly, like flowing water, a white face unfolded beneath him, drawing the outline of the floor tiles.

Around him, he could clearly feel the white mist that was scattering.

The whole world was so quiet that only he was left.

The monkey closed its eyes, held its breath, and began to work hard to expand the range of its perception.

One foot, two feet......

The monkey felt his body tremble slightly, which was excitement.

Three-foot, four-foot......

"Hey, look, that guy didn't leave. Blacktail's voice came.

For a moment, the monkey's perceptual range trembled and shrunk by a foot.

Beads of sweat the size of beans slowly slipped down his forehead.

Desperately trying, finally the range of perception was only a little bit stronger.

"Hey, what is he trying to do?"

"I'll see, I'll see. "This time it's fat.

"Do you think he will freeze to death?"

After a bombardment, the monkey's entire perception shrank to the point that it could not be seen, exploded, and stood up all at once: "You guys are not finished! Can't you be quiet?"

There was a roar, and the entire main hall fell silent.

Xuanye and hoarfrost, the cow's head is roasting and the fire is burning, and the big red, black tail, and fat intestine are crowded in front of the window to look around. Everyone looked at the panting monkey with a stunned expression.

After a while, the monkey regained his strength and walked helplessly towards the window.

"Get out of the way, I'll see. Through the window, the monkey saw the Taoist priest kneeling in the snow, shivering from the cold.

Genba also got up and walked over.

As if sensing that everyone was looking at him, the Taoist priest, who was already frozen and almost stiffened, opened his eyes slightly and shouted: "If you don't accept the poor way, the poor road won't leave! Freeze to death here! Save people's lives is better than build a seventh-level floating slaughter, do you understand! The poor way dies here, and your Buddha is also cultivated in vain!"

Everyone in the temple looked at each other.

"Why don't you let him in?" Xuan Ye whispered.

"No, I can't. The monkey replied without thinking.

"He's going to freeze to death. ”

"Then freeze to death. ”

"But, but ......" Xuanye clasped his hands together and said aggrievedly: "Saving a life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, and those who seek Buddha should take it as their responsibility to purify all sentient beings." ”

"Okay, you want Pudu, right? You Pudu her first. As he spoke, the monkey had already pulled the white frost in front of Xuan Ye and said, "He wanted to kill the white frost before." You saved him, and the hoarfrost didn't live long. ”

"This, but this is Wanshou Mountain, he shouldn't be ......"

"Nothing is impossible. The monkey said coldly: "Anyway, master, is it okay to leave this matter to the disciple to deal with? The disciple will not let him die." ”

Xuan Ye frowned and hesitated, but finally nodded: "Okay, listen to you." ”

The little demons all looked towards the monkey.

The monkey pursed his mouth and said, "At the gate of our Xuanyin Temple, can anyone kneel if they want?"

......

With a bang, the door slowly opened.

The Taoist priest couldn't help but cheer up quickly, and the pig gang that was hiding in the distance couldn't help but raise his head slightly.

I saw the monkey striding out of the temple with a group of little demons, approaching the Taoist priest step by step.

"What do you want to do?" The menacing appearance frightened the Taoist priests. It's a pity that both legs are frozen, let alone running, it's hard to stand up.

"Tie it up!" shouted.

Suddenly, the monsters swarmed up and directly tied up the Taoist priest, no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless.

This scene made Zhu Gangguan a little dumbfounded, and was about to make a move, but turned his head, but suddenly found Shaoying standing not far away and watching him quietly.

The two fingers that had been stretched out had to be retracted and allowed to continue to develop.

Soon, the Taoist priest was tied up by the demons and carried to his shoulders.

Turning his head, the monkey shouted to Xuanye in the temple: "Master, are you still satisfied?" I will send him back to Wuzhuang Temple, just like him......

Reaching out and patting the frightened face of the middle-aged Taoist priest, the monkey grinned, and said leisurely: "Forgive him for not having the ability to walk back." If you die on the road, it's none of our business in Xuanyin Temple. ”

Right under the nose of Zhu Gangguan, the monkey and his party carried the frozen Taoist priest and walked away with a big grin.

......

In the woods, Zhu Gangguan and Shaoying were still silently looking at each other.

After a long time, Shaoying spoke: "I haven't asked this general for his name." ”

"Survey the heavens, pig just hyena. Haven't asked yet?", Pig Gang arched his hand.

"The three-star cave of the oblique moon, Shaoying. Shaoying returned the salute.

"Fortunately. ”

"Fortunately. ”

......

Overnight, the monkey and his party braved the snow and directly sent the middle-aged Taoist priest back to Wuzhuang Temple. When he arrived at the point, he didn't care about 3721, he greeted a few Wuzhuang Guan disciples he met, explained a few words, and directly left the middle-aged Taoist priest and left.

Looking at the swaggering monkeys from afar, Yin De, who was standing by the attic fence and watching the snow scene, asked softly, "They haven't left yet?"

"They worshiped the Xuanyin Temple as monks. Yin Xing on the side replied softly.

"Oh?" Yin De asked again, "What about the Taoist priest?"

"The Taoist priest is still injured. ”

Hearing this, Yin De suddenly laughed and said, "Senior brother, junior brother, are you stupid, or am I blind when you are senior brother?"

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Yin Xing silently.

Helpless, Yin Xing had to bow his head slightly.

......

At the gate of Wuzhuang Temple, the monkey stopped with a group of little demons, glanced at the attic where Yin De and Yin Xing were from a distance, and said, "Wait first." ”

"What are you doing?" asked Dahong.

Without explanation, the monkey quietly pointed to the side.

......

Soon, before the Taoist disciples of Wuzhuang Temple could take care of the Taoist priest, the figure of Zhu Gangguan appeared.

"Put him down. ”

Hearing this, those Taoist disciples all complied.

The Taoist priest, who was frozen and stiff, was lying on the ground, covered with snowflakes, and looked at Zhu Gangguan weakly. It's like it's hard to roll your eyes.

I saw that Zhu Gangguan stretched out his hand, and the little snowflakes on the Taoist priest's body suddenly turned into a puff of green smoke and flew away. The Taoist priest also seemed to be relieved.

However, it is only a matter of relieving himself, and his physical strength has obviously not recovered.

Regardless of the Taoist disciples who were still standing around, Zhu Gangguan said directly: "Go back and continue to kneel." ”

Saying this, the Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and tears came down in tears, and he desperately struggled to crawl over and hugged Zhu Gangguan's leg and cried: "Great Immortal, Great Immortal." I really can't kneel anymore, if I kneel again, the poor Dao's life will be gone!"

I saw Zhu Gangguan bowing slightly, choking the throat of the Taoist priest, and said viciously: "If you don't kneel, your life will be gone now." ”

......

Outside the gate, the monkey slowly retracted his head and whistled, "I see." Got it. ”
