When I came to the village, there was an old man who took in the master and apprentice, this old man's surname was Chen, and Tang Seng also had the same surname, and Wukong also recognized this old man Chen, it turned out that this person was more than 100 years old, but Wukong still remembered that this old Chen followed the adults to chop wood when he was a child, and gave Wukong fruit to eat.

Old man Chen stayed overnight with Tang Seng and his apprentices, and Tang Seng wanted to come to the needle and thread, and said to Wukong: "I will sew a tiger skin skirt for you." "Fortunately, Tang Seng learned to sew all the clothes before crossing to help Wukong, it seems that his skills are really not overwhelming. Tang Seng really sewed the tiger skin skirt very well.

Wukong was actually very moved and shed tears and said: "Master, although you are a mortal, you saved my life, and you treat me like this, just like my parents. ”

Tang Seng said: "You and I must work together, and we will definitely work hard to practice magic and Buddhism for the teacher, and do not be a burden to you." ”

Wukong said: "Master's words, if it weren't for Master, there would be no Wukong for me." ”

Tang Seng said: "Master has something to say, Master absolutely believes in you, but there are some things to remind you that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the world, don't underestimate all the heavenly immortals." ”

Wukong said: "Those people in Heavenly Court are all wine bags and rice bags, and I am not afraid of the Jade Emperor." ”

Tang Seng said: "Then how are you better than Erlang God and that Meishan brothers?"

Wukong said: "Back then, Lao Sun didn't practice King Kong is not bad, nor did he practice to become fiery eyes, he may not be able to defeat me in today's battle, and it is Taishang Laojun who sneaks up on me." ”

Tang Seng said: "Wukong, don't you think it was Lao Jun who saved you?"

Wukong said, "How is this possible?"

Tang Seng said: "Your strength is about the same as Erlang God, but you know that Erlang God's master is Yuding Zhenren, Yuxu Twelve Great Immortals, these twelve Great Immortals still want to call Taishang Laojun a master, do you think Laojun is so simple? You are the immortal stone left by Nuwa to make up the sky, but do you know that the mending of the sky was completed by Taishang Laojun and Nuwa together, when Nuwa was mending the last stone, her strength was exhausted, and it was Taishang Laojun who transformed into Nuwa to completely make up the sky, maybe on the top of Huaguo Mountain, that stone was left by Laojun. "This Tang Seng is not complete nonsense, but when the treasures of the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King were introduced in the original Journey to the West, it was said that Taishang Laojun once transformed into Nuwa to help mend the sky.

Wukong was a little displeased when he heard this, but because of what Tang Seng said, he didn't have a seizure, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made sense, his cultivation was just the level of the four-grade golden immortal in the immortal pile, just because he practiced Taiyi spells, also known as Taiyi Golden Immortals, or Taiyi Scattered Immortals, and ate a lot of elixirs, and practiced steel and iron bones, although some could not win, they could not die. Wukong thought that Tang Seng was a monk, but he didn't want to have such knowledge, it was really rare, and he really deserved to be the reincarnation of the golden cicada. This old gentleman may still be my benefactor.

Wukong said: "Master's words are reasonable, Wukong has written them down." ”

Tang Seng said: "The meaning of being a teacher is to hope that Wukong will continue to practice immortal law to improve your strength, so that you can protect yourself, and how big your temper is, how much ability you have to protect yourself." ”

Wukong said: "Then what does the master mean that Lao Jun deliberately released the water for?"

Tang Seng said: "Naturally, I want to cultivate you, as for why it depends on your own, you must not only look at people with your eyes, but also look at the square inch of the spiritual platform, that is, your heart." ”

Wukong said: "Lao Sun Pingsheng doesn't like others to talk the most, but what the master said is golden and jade, and Wukong wrote it down." At this time, Wukong put on a tiger skin skirt, and it was really majestic, and he really looked like it.

On the second day, the master and apprentice set off and met six robbers who were about to rob, and Wukong just wanted to kill the six robbers. Tang Seng knew that this was Wukong's six meanings. Tang Seng said to Wukong: "Wukong, you don't have to kill these six people, they are all six minds, these six people are yourself, as long as you ensure that Lingtai is clear, these six people will disappear by themselves."

Wukong calmed down and recited a section of the Bodhicitta Sutra, which was learned by Wukong and Bodhi Ancestor when they were studying the Dharma, at this time these six people slashed towards Wukong, Wukong did not dodge, but these six disappeared by themselves and turned into six rays of light into Wukong's heart. Seeing that the six robbers had disappeared, Wukong knew that what Tang Seng said was true, and after such a Wukong cultivation to make great progress, he was only one step away from the realm of Great Immortals.

Tang Seng also took advantage of this opportunity to cultivate, with the help of Wukong Immortal Qi, and his cultivation had already entered the level of Fangshi, which was also a coincidence.

Tang Seng said to Wukong: "You go back to Huaguo Mountain first." “

Wukong was very surprised: "I didn't kill these six either." “

Tang Seng said: "For the teacher to know, don't you want Huaguo Mountain? Back then, Huaguo Mountain was almost regretted by the heavenly soldiers, you go to settle the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain, remember not to hurt people's lives, as long as you set up an enchantment in Huaguo Mountain, even if you beg for the teacher." “

Wukong said: "Master said that Wukong will do it, but what if Master himself has a monster?"

Tang Seng said with a smile: "Wukong rest assured, how can the master of the Monkey King not have any ability." “

Wukong said: "Master, you and Lao Sun are too close to each other, thank you Master for letting me go back to Huaguo Mountain to have a look." Saying that, Wukong flew away with a fight.

Tang Seng watched Wukong leave, thinking that since he became Tang Seng, he must not let Wukong be wronged, in the original work, Wukong returned to Huaguo Mountain after three dozen white bone spirits, and saw the monkeys and monkeys fleeing in all directions, and the waterfall of the Water Curtain Cave did not flow, Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave is the ancestral vein of the ten continents, the dragon of the three islands, it is a blessed land, but it fell into such a field, and the monkey was still slaughtered by Orion, Tang Seng thought that it was better to let Wukong rescue the monkeys in the Water Curtain Cave first.

Tang Seng led the horse and continued to walk forward, and after walking for a short time, he saw that in front of the mountain road, there was an old mother, holding a cotton coat and a flower hat on the cotton clothes. Tang Seng knew that this was Guanyin Bodhisattva to send a mantra. Tang Seng didn't want Wukong to wear a hoop spell, not to mention that he might reduce his mana, the spell could be locked up for a while, and he couldn't control it for a lifetime, and Wukong was also a monkey with a personality, but he had a personality without losing his kindness, so why force it to restrain it, even if he wanted to restrain it, he had to explain it to Wukong.

The old mother came to Tang Seng and said, "Where are you coming from, this elder, and where are you going?" “

Tang Seng said: "I came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty and wanted to go to the west to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures." “

The old mother said: "I just died and want to be a monk's son, this set of clothes and flower hats will be given to your apprentice, and I will teach you to recite the mantra." “

Tang Seng suddenly had a bold idea in his heart, it is too slow to cultivate immortals step by step to obtain mana, I want to become an immortal system, since as long as I sweep the baby, there will be one more exactly the same, how can I join if I sweep the Bodhisattva's jade net bottle. Thinking of this, Tang Seng planned to use it boldly, Tang Seng said to the old mother: "Bodhisattva, the poor monk has recognized you, please show up to see it, the Bodhisattva didn't expect to let Tang Seng see through it and have to change back to his original face."

But seeing the solemn appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, auspicious light and body, sitting on the lotus platform, holding a jade bottle and willow branches in his hands, "The golden cicada can't imagine that you have such a vision now, worthy of being the second apprentice of my Buddha."

Tang Seng said to me in his mind that I wanted to become an immortal: "Scan the jade net bottle and the willow branch." “

The system said, "Scan 10 percent, 15 percent, 20 percent......." "It looks like the scan will take some time too.

Tang Seng recited Amitabha Buddha in his mouth: "The disciple sees the Bodhisattva, there are still a few places I don't understand about the mantra, please ask the Bodhisattva to advise." “

The Bodhisattva explained a few words and was about to leave.

However, the system has just completed 50% of the scanning.

Tang Seng continued: "The Bodhisattva walks slowly, the disciple has something unclear, how mortals improve the Dharma and cultivate to become a Buddha, what is the difference between Buddhism and Taoism, is the Buddha stronger than the Bodhisattva?"

The Bodhisattva said: "The general level of Buddhism, ordinary people, under normal circumstances, have to go through the cycle of birth and death, that is, to experience birth, old age, sickness and death, and the good people who are profound in the Dharma can be Hinayana saints, although there is no mana at this stage, but they can transcend themselves. Mahayana saints include reincarnation saints and nirvana saints, and these Mahayana saints and nirvana saints can experience the cycle of birth and death and transcend the boundaries of life and death. And above the Mahayana sage, is the Arhat of the Buddha, to this category is the mana, above the Arhat is the Bodhisattva saint or Venerable, the Bodhisattva can not only transcend himself but also the boundless mana of others, the highest state is the Buddha, the Buddha's mana is boundless and the function is complete. “

Tang Seng said: "Thank you Bodhisattva for your guidance, why is the Bodhisattva's mana better than that of ordinary Buddhas." “

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "The real Buddha, great compassion, save suffering, although I am not a Buddha, I have already become a Buddha in my heart, just because I have an obsession in my heart, I have never been able to let go of the suffering of the common people in the world, it is impossible to become a Buddha, but when it comes to mana, I am the ancestor of the seven Buddhas, and the mana can be ranked in the top five of the Buddha's family, the difference between our Buddhism and Taoism is that the greater the compassion, the greater the mana. “

Tang Seng said: "Bodhisattva, what is the stage of my Dharma cultivation? “

The Bodhisattva said: "Now that your Dharma has reached the level of Mahayana sages, you can see through life and death, and transcend reincarnation, but your physical body is still a mortal body, and you cannot obtain the supreme mana of Buddhism, but you can transcend sentient beings and get rid of the sea of suffering. “

A voice flashed in Tang Seng's mind: "The scanning is complete, and the jade net bottle and willow branches are being copied." “
