On the Gobi, where strange rocks are strewn, a steep mountain peak stands alone, and the ravines and ravines below the mountain cover the vast land like the dead skin of a human being.

A gentle breeze blew, setting up yellow sand in the sky.

In the haze, a golden light fell from the sky and fell to the top of the mountain, turning into a monk.

This monk is wearing a beige linen robe, lined with white monk's robe, holding a golden staff, tall, dignified, and exuding a faint golden light from top to bottom, it seems that he should be a person who has cultivated the golden body of the Buddha.

After a while, hundreds of ragged little demons appeared between the mountains and rocks, watching from afar. The monk ignored it, but still stood quietly on the top of the mountain with his hands in his hands, with his back to the monsters, as if waiting for something.

Soon, a short, yellow-haired sable rat spirit in golden armor walked out of the demons. Seeing the monk on the top of the mountain, he took a deep breath, bowed down and ran forward around the strange rocks, and knelt down on one knee a foot behind the monk and said, "Disciple, see Venerable Lingji!"

This Lingji Buddha smiled faintly, glanced sideways at the yellow-haired sable rat spirit and said, "It's been so long, and you still call yourself a 'disciple'?"

The yellow-haired sable rat spirit smiled awkwardly: "This, when are the little ones all disciples of Buddhism, it depends on whether you recognize it or not, Venerable." ”

Lingji Buddha raised his head slightly and said with a smile: "It's not difficult to recognize, return the clear oil you stolen, poor monk, I will recognize you as a disciple." ”

"This ......" the yellow-haired sable spirit hesitated and sneered: "Venerable Lingji, you don't know this, you have eaten all the clear oil." How can it be repaid? The small ones who ate the clear oil have today's cultivation. If you don't dislike it, and accept the small one and give it to the Da Lei Yin Temple as a gatekeeper, won't the lost clear oil be equivalent to returning it back? In this way, the small one can continue to practice the Dharma, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"Noise. ”

was so lightly snorted by Lingji Buddha, the yellow-haired sable rat spirit was so frightened that he hurriedly leaned down and didn't dare to speak anymore.

Beads of sweat fell down the uneven forehead.

Facing the wind. Lingji Buddha looked at the floating clouds in the sky and said leisurely: "The dignified Great Leiyin Temple, where is the use of a little demon like you to guard the door? At the beginning, the poor monk let you live, but he didn't want to get bloody, and he just missed his cultivation." ”

"Yes, what Venerable Lingji said. The yellow-haired sable rat spirit hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Little thank you Venerable Lingji for not killing." ”

Turning around slowly, Lingji Buddha looked down at the yellow-haired mink rat spirit who was bowing to the ground, took a deep breath and said, "I heard that you now have a new name, called the Yellow Wind Great Sage?"

"This ......" the yellow-haired sable rat spirit stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat, and said tremblingly, "Let Venerable Lingji laugh." 'The Great Sage of the Yellow Wind' is just talking to my little guys, if you meet a monster of the same level on the road. It's just called the Yellow Wind Monster. With such a turbid name, how can it enter the ears of Venerable Lingji?"

"Well, from now on, the poor monk will call you Huang Feng, okay?"

"Venerable Xie gives the name, Venerable Xie gives the name!" The Yellow Wind Monster hurriedly bowed and bowed, and said loudly: "From now on, the name of the little one will be Huang Feng!"

Looking at the Yellow Wind Monster, Lingji Buddha took a deep breath and walked up to him step by step.

The Yellow Wind Monster raised his head slightly, stared at Lingji Buddha's boots and asked cautiously, "Does His Holiness have something to order?"

"It's really something," Lingji Buddha said leisurely: "If you do it, it will be a great achievement, and the matter of stealing clear oil will also be a low merit and a write-off." How?"

The Yellow Wind Monster hurriedly kowtowed: "The little one will definitely do his best and never disappoint His Holiness's high expectations!"

"That's very good. Slowly raising his head, Lingji Buddha looked to the east.

......

At dusk, Xuanzang and his entourage finally arrived at Gao Laozhuang along the long mountain road.

This is a village in a remote area, although it is a village, but there are hundreds of earthen houses, and it is roughly estimated that there should be more than 100 households.

Outside the village is a vast hilly field, where the wheat has just been harvested, and the straws piled up in the field are piled up, and it looks like this year will be a good harvest.

Strangely, when I stepped into the village, I didn't see half a figure, and I didn't see the people in the village lighting up the lights, and there was a dead silence, as if there was no one.

"Isn't this place deserted?" asked the little white dragon in a low voice.

The monkey on the side replied leisurely: "It is impossible to be abandoned, you see this house, and the farmland just now, it is obvious that someone is taking care of it, how can it be abandoned?"

"What's going on? There's no one, and I can't borrow a place to stay, and it looks like I'm going to have to sleep in the wilderness again tonight. ”

"If you live in the middle of nowhere, you'll die?"

"Yes, yes, the Great Sage is right, look at my mouth. When the monkey said this, the little white dragon quickly collected his attention and slapped himself in the face.

In the distance, they saw an old man with gray hair sitting crookedly in front of his house.

The monkey turned his face sideways and said to Xuanzang, "I'll ask." ”

Xuanzang nodded silently.

Step by step towards the old man, the monkey shook and turned into a young man.

The black bear spirit behind him and Lu Liugui glanced at each other, and their bodies flickered, the black bear essence turned into a bearded strong man, and Lu Liugui turned into a hunchbacked old man.

"Old man, may I ask, where have all the people in this village gone?"

The old man was shocked: "Where have all the people in the village gone?"

He squinted at the monkey for a long time, until he saw the monkey clearly, and then the old man said in a hoarse voice, "Young man, you are a foreigner, right? I haven't seen you before." ”

"We are people from the east to learn the scriptures, we want to go west, passing by here, we want to borrow a night, and we look at the empty land in the village, so we just ask. ”

"Scripture learner?" The old man touched his forehead with his wrinkled hand and thought for a long time, and he didn't seem to understand what the scripture taker was, so he only said softly: "Tomorrow, Mrs. Gao will be a son-in-law, and the people in the village will go to help prepare, if it weren't for the old man's legs and feet, it is estimated that he would have gone." If you want to spend the night, why don't you go to Mrs. Gao's house, he has a lot of rooms. Besides, tomorrow's son-in-law, Mrs. Gao also wants to have more people. It's a little more lively. ”

said. The old man stroked his long beard and laughed.

It's a little different from what I said. The monkey couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Think about it. He still bowed his hand respectfully to the old man and said, "Thank you, old man." ”

After that, he turned around and walked back step by step, and while the old man was not paying attention, he flew into the sky.

Descending from the air, not far from this village, there is really a small mountain villa, which is now brightly lit. It's lively.

Falling back to the crowd, the monkey whispered, "Everyone has gone to the villa over there, and the local rich man is taking a son-in-law, and he is doing a happy event." Let's go, let's go spend the night. ”

"Going to the villa for the night?" Xuanzang couldn't help but hesitate.

"Isn't it good?"

Xuanzang took a deep breath and said: "It doesn't matter if the poor monk is poor, anyway, he is used to sleeping in the wilderness, and he doesn't have to have tiles to cover his head." Besides, people are already busy doing happy events. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to bother again. ”

Turn your face sideways. Xuanzang asked the rest of the people, "What do you think?"

"I ...... I don't really like to hang out with a bunch of humans. The little white dragon said in a low voice.

"Listen to the Great Sage. Lu Liugui arched his hand.

Saying this, the black bear spirit on the side also hurriedly said: "Listen to the Great Sage." ”

The monkey snatched the reins from the little white dragon, led the horse and walked in the direction of the villa, saying, "I will spend the night at the villa tonight." ”

"Why is that?" asked Xuanzang softly.

"Do you remember the eagle fishing for the dragon?" the monkey asked rhetorically.

Xuanzang frowned and pondered for a while, and asked, "Could it be that there is also a person who must be met here?"

"Yes, it's important. The monkey let out a long sigh and said, "Actually, I can't tell where he is important, but if it doesn't, I'm afraid that something will go wrong." Anyway, my idea is that it's better to bring it. ”

At this moment, the taste in the monkey's heart is really indescribably complicated.

Back then, he did everything possible to jump out, but he never thought that one day he would do everything possible to drill in.

"It's really thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. ”

Xuanzang didn't ask anymore, and the little white dragon on the side didn't think about it at all, and as for the black bear spirit and Lu Liugui who accompanied him, they didn't even know what "Eagle Sorrow Stream Fishing Dragon" meant.

......

The lanterns are hung high, and the fiery red words of joy can be seen everywhere. At this time, the whole villa was already immersed in a festive mood.

Although Gao Taigong will only accept a son-in-law tomorrow, the courtyard is already lively at this time, and the villagers who are both guests and domestic servants are smiling and celebrating one by one.

In the dark corner of the backyard, the canopy, who was the groom's official, seemed a little restless, pacing back and forth.

That face is still handsome and extraordinary, and he is no different from him when he was in the position of marshal, except that he has changed his military uniform into a cloth shirt, and he even looks younger.

In the distance, an old man wearing a brocade robe, a black silk scarf, and a white beard saw him, walked towards him step by step on crutches, and said happily: "Son-in-law, everyone is busy, why did you come here? Let the old man find him easily." ”

Tianpeng hurriedly calmed down, and hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Taigong, your legs and feet are inconvenient, don't walk around." ”

Mrs. Gao patted Tianpeng's hand and said, "Happy, if you don't leave at this time, when will you stay?" By the way, why do you still call me Taigong? Isn't it time to change your words?"

"This ......" Tianpeng hesitated for a moment, and arched his hand with some embarrassment: "Son-in-law, see father-in-law." ”

"Father-in-law?" Mrs. Gao looked a little unhappy, frowned and said: "I told you, just call me Daddy, whatever Cuilan wants, you can call it." You're good at everything, but you're too restrained. ”

Tianpeng nodded again and again, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Mrs. Gao said softly: "It's all a family, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Tianpeng gritted his teeth, fell to his knees with a thud, and bowed his head to worship.

For a while, Mrs. Gao was also a little panicked, and hurriedly trembled and wanted to reach out to help: "Virtuous son-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Tianpeng frowned and whispered: "Gang Jian wants to ask the old lady to take back his fate." ”

"Take back your life?" For a while, Mrs. Gao became more and more panicked, and hurriedly said: "It's all here, do you still want to take back your life?" Don't you think my Gao family property is not enough?"

"Don't dare. ”

"That's because you don't like Cuilan's girl?"

"Miss is gentle and lovely, and knowledgeable, how dare you not like it?"

The old lady blinked her somewhat dazed eyes and said, "Isn't it, because it's a relationship between the wealthy?" If that's the case, the old man promises you, if you give birth to two sons in the future, one can inherit half of the family property with your surname, okay? If you agree, the old man is willing to make a note. ”

Tianpeng hurriedly shook his head.

"So, why?"

Tianpeng blinked his eyes blankly, and thought for a long time before he whispered: "Gangguan is just a subordinate who has been taken in by the old lady since he was a child, how can he marry a young lady? If it is spread out, won't he become a laughing stock? Gangguan is afraid that he will miss the young lady's life." ”

Hearing this, the old lady couldn't help laughing and said, "You, you're the ...... I really don't know what to say about you, they all say that people have to do their duty, but today it seems that it's not good to be too responsible. ”

With a long sigh, the old lady said slowly: "The old eyes are flowery, but they are not stupid. Over the years, if it weren't for your internal and external management, how would I have the current property of my Gao family? Besides, the old man has no children under his knees, and it will be sooner or later to recruit a son-in-law to inherit the incense. ”

"Since you have to recruit, you say, where can I find such a good son-in-law as you? I grew up in this Gao Lao Village, but I haven't seen such a good talent as you. Besides, Cuilan has already secretly promised you, if you hadn't agreed, how would she have waited until now that she is not married? If you refuse, you will really mistake her for life!"

As he spoke, Gao Taigong raised his hand and pretended to fight, and landed on the forehead of the canopy, but only patted it lightly.

He said happily: "Don't think about it anymore, the villagers and tenants also unanimously think that you are suitable, where is the laughing stock? If you still recognize me as a grandfather, get up for me, do what the prince says, and give birth to a grandson to inherit the family business for the Gao family as soon as possible." ”

After that, Gao Taigong couldn't help but pull him, and walked towards the lively place on crutches.

Along the way, everyone congratulated Gao Taigong and Tianpeng, and Tianpeng also thanked everyone along with the old lady, but the eyebrows were still frowning, as if they were preoccupied.

Suddenly, Tianpeng was slightly startled, and suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the gate. The guests around were also stunned, and looked at the canopy with some confusion.

"Son-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Someone is coming. Tian Peng replied dumbly.

......

At this time, outside the door, Xuanzang and his entourage were slowly walking towards the gate of the Gao family.

The monkey's clothes are windless and unwinded, and they are slightly undulating.

"Great Sage, ...... are you?"

The monkey bar replied casually: "Let the people inside know that we are coming, so that the meeting will not be too abrupt for a while." (To be continued......)

PS: Today there are another 4,000 words...... I feel that the subscription and monthly pass are really good medicine, and the festival is resurrected with full blood all of a sudden.

Just got your support!!
