Chapter 484: Donor, please respect yourself
Walking step by step in the treasure house of the Dragon Palace, the monkey looked around a little blankly, and Ao Tingxin followed behind him inch by inch.
The golden floor tiles, the vermilion pillars, the scattered gold, the precious stones shimmering in the light of the night pearls on the walls, all the qiē here looked so dazzling.
If it was hundreds of years ago, these mundane monkeys would not have looked at it with their eyes, but now he will look at everything carefully and look at it with fascination.
Six hundred and fifty years have passed, and the whole world has changed, and this East China Sea Dragon Palace, which has not been warn, should belong to the place that has changed the least. But for some reason, the monkey always felt that what he saw in front of him, even if it was a brick or a pillar, was different from what he saw hundreds of years ago.
Perhaps, he himself has changed.
All of them look so strange that people feel the urge to cry.
"Great Sage, the armor is stored here. ”
"Oh. The monkey hurriedly collected his thoughts, and the feeling was as if he had just been woken up from sleep, and he blinked awkwardly and said, "Got it." ”
Leading the monkey, Ao Tingxin slowly walked through a path vacated from the mountain of treasures in the Dragon Palace towards the depths of the treasure vault, always followed by a few shrimp soldiers watching from afar.
Before the two of them could reach the treasury where the armor was stored, Prime Minister Turtle had already bent down and trotted after him.
When he saw the monkey, he flew to the ground and kowtowed: "I don't know that the Great Sage is coming, the old minister has missed the distance, and he really deserves death!
At this scene, several shrimp soldiers behind him were dumbfounded.
Even for the Dragon King, he has never seen the old prime minister in this Dragon Palace who is above ten thousand people so in awe.
Seeing the turtle prime minister doing this great gift. The monkey just looked back and looked at it lightly. He waved his hand lightly and said, "Get up." ”
Hear the words. Prime Minister Gui Cheng said loudly: "The Great Sage does not forgive the old minister, and the old minister does not dare to get up. ”
"I'm tired and too lazy to speak, you know what I mean?"
This sentence was said very lightly, but the turtle prime minister trembled for a while, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva and shrunk back, until he saw Ao Tingxin on the side quietly giving him a look. only then did he tremble and get up. It's just that the head is still buried deeply, and from time to time it raises its eyelids and looks at the monkey cautiously.
After a moment of silence, he bowed his hand in a low voice: "Great Sage, the old minister has asked you for peace on behalf of my dragon king." ”
"Your dragon king?" the monkey was slightly stunned, blinked his eyes deeply, rubbed his temples, and suddenly said, "By the way, I haven't seen your old dragon king yet." I want to get something from your Dragon Palace Treasury, you Dragon King don't mind, right?"
"How can you mind?" Prime Minister Gui hurriedly put on a smiling face and said with a flattering face: "My Dragon King said that our Dragon Palace is from the Dragon Palace." It's you, the Great Sage. As long as you want, the Great Sage, you have to pluck his beard. And there are no complaints. ”
"Just don't mind. ”
As he spoke, the monkey was about to turn around, and Prime Minister Gui hurriedly said: "In addition, the Great Sage, my Dragon King has set up a banquet in the main hall to wait, and later, when the Great Sage has finished picking up the things he wants, he will also ask the Great Sage to move to the main hall, so that my Dragon King can do his best to be a landlord." ”
Before the monkey could answer, Prime Minister Gui's eyes purred twice, and then added: "Also, my dragon king has explained, if you want it, and my East China Sea Dragon Palace treasure house does not have it, as long as you say it, the world is underground, and my dragon king will try his best to search for you." ”
After that, Prime Minister Gui looked at the monkey with a flattering face, but the monkey was still expressionless, and he looked a little tired in his expression.
After a long time, the monkey turned his head to Xiang Ao Tingxin and said softly, "I'll talk about it later." ”
Ao nodded knowingly, took small steps and continued to walk slowly along the aisle with the monkey, leaving only the turtle prime minister standing in place.
Half-ringing, he hesitated to follow.
......
At dawn, a drizzle began to fall.
Xuanzang rode a horse, half-squinting his eyes and walking slowly along the rugged mountain road. The oncoming raindrops soaked all over my clothes.
Gradually, the road ahead became muddy and the rain became heavier.
Seeing a broken pavilion on the side of the road from a distance, Xuanzang simply whipped his horse, rode the horse directly to the pavilion, and unloaded his bags to avoid the rain.
Looking at the gray sky, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
At this time, in the mountains and forests in the distance, Manjushri and a young monk were watching Xuanzang from afar.
After a long time, the monk laughed slowly and said softly, "The demon monkey didn't go west with him either. Is he able to go to Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple like this? I don't think he can even pass this level today. ”
Manjushri didn't answer, but just stretched out his hand to remove the blocked leaves and continued to look at Xuanzang carefully.
......
Walking into a low treasury, the monkey saw nearly a thousand sets of armor arranged like a military formation. Although that piece of armor may not be comparable to the armor worn by the Heavenly Court General, it is more than enough compared to the armor worn by ordinary Heavenly Generals.
Ao Tingxin turned around and saluted, and said softly: "The armor hidden in my East China Sea Dragon Palace is here, but if you want to be worthy of the armor of the Great Sage, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find it in this treasure house for a while." ”
"No, I think the armor here is pretty good. The monkey waved his hand and said, "After all, it's just a shroud." If the other party can hurt me, let alone the Dragon Palace, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a piece of armor that can prevent it in this world. ”
"The Great Sage is right. Ao Tingxin nodded slightly, and turned to Prime Minister Guicheng: "Go and get a few underwear for the Great Sage." ”
"No!" Prime Minister Turtle nodded hurriedly, turned around and walked out quickly.
Walking slowly down the aisle, the monkeys looked at them one by one, their eyes indifferent.
After a while, he stopped in front of one of the golden armors and reached out to stroke the engraving on which he held the breastplate.
"The Great Sage likes this one?"
"This one is a bit similar to the one you gave me when I returned to Huaguo Mountain from Heavenly Court. ”
Ao Tingxin smiled faintly along his mouth and said: "The Great Sage said that it was a joke, that one is the chain gold armor treasured by the West Sea." Is this one comparable?"
The monkey smiled as well. He rubbed his face and sighed, "When I was a bridegroom, I wore the ones you gave me. It's a pity that they were all ruined later. ”
Saying this, Ao Tingxin hurriedly collected the look on his face and didn't dare to laugh again.
After a little hesitation, she whispered again: "If the Great Sage really likes it, he can also order someone to reforge a pair, but the chain gold armor process is extremely complicated, even if it is all over the world." I'm afraid it will take more than a month to cast. ”
"No, I'll just talk about it casually. The armor here is pretty good, it doesn't have to be that one. Moreover...... Even if it's really cast, it's not the same as it was. ”
With that, the monkey turned and walked on. Ao Tingxin also hurriedly followed.
......
At this time, Prime Minister Turtle had already hurried into the main hall.
As soon as he saw the turtle prime minister, the old dragon king hurried up to greet him, and asked on the spot, "How is it?"
"Qi Yu Majesty xià. Prime Minister Gui frowned, swallowed dryly, and said, "Also...... It's not that good. ”
"Nothing?"
"yes, not much. ”
The old dragon king's brows couldn't help frowning. Whispered, "Are you sure it's him?"
"It should be true, even if the old minister looks away. How could the fourth princess follow suit?"
"Is it really him......" The old dragon king put his hands in front of him and rubbed them repeatedly, hesitated for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "You have conveyed everything this king told you?"
"It's all relayed, not a word for word. ”
"And he didn't say anything?"
"I didn't say it. ”
"Also...... Didn't you mention that after the defeat of Huaguo Mountain, my Four Seas Dragon Palace still surrendered to Heavenly Court?"
"I didn't mention it at all. He looked a little weird, as if he ...... I came here purely to borrow clothes to wear. ”
"Borrow a piece of clothing?"
"Yes, this is not surprising, you haven't seen it, these hundreds of years, I don't know how he has lived, there are only a few leaves left on his body to cover it. Speaking of this, Prime Minister Gui was excited, and hurriedly said: "It's broken, it can't be delayed any longer, the old minister has to quickly find him a few underwear and send them over." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and ran out of the temple.
"Lining?" the old dragon king hurriedly shouted: "Remember to pick the best! Give him the best, and take a few more!"
"The old minister understands!"
It was only at this time that the old dragon king slowly breathed a sigh of relief and sighed softly: "It's good that this monkey didn't make trouble, it's good that he didn't make trouble." At the beginning, the four girls were taken captive by her to Huaguo Mountain, but now it seems that it is a blessing in disguise. Somehow...... No matter what, there's always someone to talk to. ”
......
Gradually, the rain stopped.
Xuanzang stretched out his hand from the pavilion, looked at the sky, breathed a long sigh of relief, and led the horse down the stairs with only three steps. Re-tie your bags back to the saddle.
was about to turn over and get on the horse, but he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, holding the mane of the white horse and saying, "For more than a day, I forgot to feed you." Ay...... It's rare that you don't complain. ”
Shaking his head, he smiled, unpacked his bags again, led the white horse to a tree by the creek, and nibbled the grass nearby. He himself took out a Buddhist scripture from his bag and studied it carefully.
In the distance, the monk sighed leisurely: "Shelter from the rain, feed the horses, and have to eat, drink, and sleep, just like this, he dares to make a grand wish to purify all sentient beings? I didn't expect that a good Buddha would fall to this. Why bother?"
Manjushri on the side glanced at him lightly and said, "But don't underestimate it, it is precisely because of weakness that you dare to make such a grand wish, which is bravery." ”
"That's right, it's up to him to resolve it. Leave this matter to the disciples. If he wants to cross sentient beings, I will send a few people to show him the crossing. With that, the monk turned and walked off into the distance.
Manjushri hesitated slightly, glanced at Xuanzang, turned around and followed.
......
A short time later, in a cave in the distance, a bearded man suddenly woke up.
......
In the treasure house of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, Prime Minister Gui Cheng finally sent a shirt, and the monkey had already selected a pair of armor.
It's just that the armor is really beyond Ao Tingxin's expectations.
The black cuirass had a mid-part, a few simple clouds carved on both sides, and the bracers were completely brimmed with stripes, plus a pair of black boots that looked extremely simple......
Such a pair of armor, don't say the one that the Dragon Palace gave him before. It's the one he wore every day when he was in Huaguo Mountain. It's a lot worse. And in this treasure trove of the Dragon Palace. It's not a good thing.
Such a pair of armor, if you really want to pick out a good one, that is, this armor is rare and low-key in appearance among many armors, even if it is put in the mortal world, it is estimated that no one will think that this is a rare thing.
However, since the monkey has identified it, it is inconvenient for Ao Tingxin and Prime Minister Turtle to say anything.
After thinking about it for a while, Ao Tingxin stepped forward and held the underwear in his hand. Shaking straight, he slowly walked towards the monkey.
"What are you doing?" the monkey asked suddenly.
Ao Ting said hesitantly: "Obey...... Serve you to change your clothes......"
Hearing this, the monkey smiled helplessly and snatched the clothes from Ao Tingxin's hand.
"Come on, do you really think of yourself as a maid? Why didn't you see you so afraid of me when I was in Huaguo Mountain before?"
"It's no longer the case. Ao Tingxin said softly: "The Great Sage Master is now a Heavenly Dao cultivator. As a listener, I'm afraid you may not be able to be your maid. ”
"Hey, Heavenly Dao Cultivation? What Heavenly Dao Cultivation is when the Dao Heart is broken?"
"Dao heart broken?"
The two people present couldn't help but be stunned.
The monkey just smiled, tilted his head and said, "You can repair it at any time, but it's actually not bad." Anyway, even if it's repaired back. I can't figure out what to do with it. Even if I don't come back, there should be no one in the Three Realms who can do anything to me. I'll talk about it when I have time. ”
said. The monkey looked at Ao Tingxin and said, "Can you turn around?" Although I am covered in hair, I am changing clothes. ”
Ao was shocked when he heard this, and quickly turned around.
With all his hands and feet, the monkey quickly changed his clothes and put on his chosen armor again. But with this pair of armor on his body, it is a completely different style from the majestic Monkey King in the past.
If it is said that the king of ten thousand demons wearing gold chain mail is determined to swallow heaven and earth, then the one in front of him is just an ordinary monkey demon.
Even looking at the clothes, no one would doubt that he was a demon general in the God Refining Realm.
Looking at himself in the life-size bronze mirror placed on the side, the monkey looked lonely.
After staring blankly for a moment, he pursed his lips slightly and smiled.
On the side, Prime Minister Turtle finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed down and said, "Great Sage, since you are still satisfied, then please move the main hall." My dragon king has already prepared a banquet, and the whole dragon palace is also waiting there. ”
"Nope. The monkey sighed softly: "Thank you to the old dragon king for me, I still have something to do, so I won't stay." ”
Prime Minister Gui seemed to want to persuade, but one hand was already held down by Ao Tingxin, and he hurriedly swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
"You just said that you usually go to Huaguo Mountain if you have nothing to do?"
"Back to the words of the Great Sage, yes. ”
"Can you not be so reserved?" the monkey frowned helplessly, "I'm going to trouble you to take me around." I don't know if they still recognize me, but don't be swept away by them. ”
The Great Sage laughed. Although 650 years have passed, and there are not many youkai still alive today, there are definitely still many who recognize you. There is no need to worry about the Great Sage. As he spoke, Ao Tingxin turned sideways and said to Prime Minister Guicheng: "Tingxin wants to accompany the Great Sage Master on a trip to Huaguo Mountain, so I will bother Prime Minister Gui to tell my father." ”
"This ......" The turtle prime minister was so anxious that his eyes rolled, but he didn't dare to say half a "no".
Seeing this, Ao Tingxin had no choice but to look at him repeatedly, smile and nod.
Prime Minister Gui was a little relieved.
With Ao Tingxin, the monkey quickly left the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea and headed towards Huaguo Mountain.
......
By the stream, the white horse was still leisurely gnawing on the grass, and the world after the rain was wet, but there was a rare cleanliness.
Xuanzang paced back and forth in the pavilion with his staff in one hand and the scriptures in the other, sometimes raising his head, sometimes closing his eyes, as if he was constantly thinking about something.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps all around.
A group of thugs dressed in cloth and bare-chested and bare-chested came out from behind the trees on the side with swords in hand, and in the blink of an eye, they had surrounded the pavilion where Xuanzang was.
"Hey, there's a monk! I'll just say my grandfather didn't lie to me!" the bearded man laughed as he brandished a machete in one hand.
Xuanzang couldn't help but be stunned, glanced at the comer lightly, and said to himself: "There are six in total." ”
As he spoke, as soon as he let go of his hand, the scripture in his hand snapped and closed.
Anyone can see that this situation is not good.
The monk who was secretly watching from a distance couldn't help but laugh and sighed, "Isn't he going to purify all sentient beings? ”
Manjushri on the side was still silent.
I saw that the bearded man at the head stroked his belt, straightened his chest and said, "You are Xuanzang from the east?"
"It's the poor monk. Xuanzang casually threw the scriptures in his hand onto the bag on the side, took a step forward, and saluted them with his staff: "I don't know what the donor is looking for a poor monk?"
At this statement, the gang of thugs immediately laughed.
"It's fine. The bearded man at the head pointed at Xuanzang and said loudly: "So, your grandfather and I, introduce ourselves first." My surname is Wang, my name is five, and the people in the rivers and lakes call me the fifth king of the big sword, and the people in this area all call me the king. Usually it's fine, that is, the toll is collected here, and when he meets someone who is not long-sighted, he will be sent back to the west. Do you understand that?"
Xuanzang looked at the bearded man expressionlessly, and said softly: "That's ...... What do you mean by bandits?"
At this point, the gang of thugs burst out laughing again.
"Well, I haven't found a better word for the time being. Staring at Xuanzang, the bearded man said with a smile: "I was going to rest today, but just now my grandfather gave me a dream, saying that there is a monk named Xuanzang, and he will pass by here today." He also said, "You have a golden slab in your hand, which can gather the world's wealth, but if you have such a thing?" If you are interested, you will leave the golden shackle and spare you from dying. ”
Xuanzang replied expressionlessly: "The poor monk is Xuanzang, but there is no golden sword." ”
"No gold?" For a while, all the thieves looked at each other.
"You idiots, he said that if you don't have you, you really don't have it?" the bearded man stretched out his voice and said: "Even the name is correct, this golden shackle must also be there, search!"
Before the words fell, the two thieves had already rolled up their sleeves and walked towards Xuanzang's bag.
Just as their hands were about to touch the bag, they only heard a "bang", and one end of the staff in Xuanzang's hand fell onto the bag.
The bandits were stunned.
I saw Xuanzang holding the other end of the staff, staring at the bearded man expressionlessly and said, "Don't ask yourself, it's not a gentleman's doing." Donor, please respect yourself. (To be continued......)
