It is said that the three Tibetans left Chang'an City and headed west, and were first caught by the bison jīng, the bear jīng, and the tiger jīng, and were frightened.

Fortunately, there is Tai Bai Xing secretly protected from danger.

In fact, Tai Bai Xing is also a person with a heart, he originally practiced under the Silly Root Seat, and when he came to the Xuanhuang World, he became the person who communicated between the underworld and the heavenly court, and was very trusted by Silly Root and Hanzhen.

But he comes from the small world, his roots are shallow, his qualifications are limited, and it is difficult to improve.

Silly Gen did not hide it: "Journey to the West is a great opportunity under the operation of the Heavenly Dao, although you have the heart, I am afraid that you will not have this opportunity, you go and try it! If it doesn't work, I'll find a way!"

Tai Bai Xing saved Sanzang because of this, but when he wanted to beg Sanzang to accept him as an apprentice, he couldn't say anything anyway, and finally had to give up, just said: "I am the Taibai Star of the West Heaven, and I am here to rescue your souls." There is God's help in moving forward, and don't complain about hardship. ”

Looking at the lonely and distant Master Sanzang, Tai Baixing muttered: "It seems that there is indeed no master-apprentice relationship! ”

It is precisely because of this good karma that the reincarnation of Tai Bai Xing later received the help of the Zhantan Merit Buddha, and was able to walk in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, improve his qualifications, and have a great opportunity in the future to become the realm of Daluo.

Besides, after Master Sanzang was rescued by Tai Bai Xing, he was very frightened in his heart, and he was already timid about learning the scriptures, but he also knew that there was no way back, so he had to continue to move forward.

Just when he was frightened, he saw two fierce tigers roaring in front of him, and several long snakes coiling behind him, poisonous insects on the left and monsters on the right, which made Master Sanzang extremely sad, and said in his heart: "I will die, I really shouldn't be in the limelight at the land and water conference." ”

At this moment, a strong man with a steel fork and a bow and arrow hanging from his waist appeared, causing poisonous insects to run, demon beasts to flee, tigers to lurk, and long snakes to hide.

Seeing that he was approaching, Sanzang knelt on the side of the road, clasped his palms together and shouted, "King help, King help!"

This strong man, surnamed Liu Boqin, nicknamed Zhenshan Taibao, rescued Master Sanzang to his home to rest.

Looking at Zhenshan Taibao, recalling his majestic posture that made tigers and snakes fearful, Sanzang liked it very much, but he had the heart to accept him as an apprentice, so he asked: "Do you want to protect ......?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw an old woman, leading a daughter-in-law, to salute Sanzang, and Sanzang had to keep silent.

At this time, after getting the robe and the nine-ring tin staff, Sanzang already had some magical powers, knowing that Zhenshan Taibao had a father who suffered sins in the underworld, so he recited the scriptures "The Sutra of Death", "The Lotus Sutra", and "The Mida Sutra" to surpass Liu's father.

The spirit of Birchin's father was so recommended that he could get rid of the sinking, and the ghost came to the mansion early, and said to the elders of the house in a dream: "I am suffering in the yīn division, and I can't live for a long time. Now I am fortunate to have a holy monk, read the scriptures, and eliminate my sinful karma, and the king of Hades sent someone to send me to the rich land of China, and the old man took care of his life. Don't be lazy, don't be lazy, if my son is fortunate enough to learn from that elder, he will surely achieve positive results in the future. ”

The Zhenshan Taibao family was very surprised, and their mother and daughter-in-law both said: "The elder traveled west for many kilometers, and I don't know if I have to pay it back, you have an old mother and daughter-in-law, and you must not listen to your father's nonsense." ”

After the Zhenshan Taibao family thanked Sanzang, they had one or two silver as thanks, and Sanzang did not accept a penny, and said to Zhenshan Taibao: "You are willing to send me a ride with mercy, and I feel my love." ”

Along the way, Sanzang couldn't help but say again: "Boqin, I intend to accept you as a disciple, ensure that I travel west to learn from the scriptures, and I will give you a great future in the future." ”

Zhenshan Taibao promised: "Thank you for the elder's kindness, but there is an old mother and an ugly wife in the family, and I really can't let go." ”

Sanzang sighed: "Master and apprentice have a fate, and it is not up to anyone at all." ”

Master Sanzang had no choice but to leave Zhenshan Taibao, Zhenshan Taibao felt as if he had lost something, and he had to go back after pondering for a long time, but he didn't know that he had lost a great fate.

After that, Master Sanzang came to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain and rescued Sun Wukong.

At this time, Sun Wukong has been suppressed for 500 years, and the demons have been suppressed by Buddhism and Taoism, and his cultivation has also reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and he is almost one step away from reaching the Daluo Stage, achieving a true immortal and immortal true body.

On the way forward, suddenly there were 6 strong gangsters who cut the path to rob the Sanzang master and apprentice, Sun Wukong Ye xìng did not get rid of it, and they were all killed, stripped of his clothes, and seized his coils.

The 6 strongmen are not ordinary thieves, one is called to see joy, one is called to hear anger, one is called to smell love, one is called to taste and think, one is called to be an opinion, and one is called to be worried.

Don't underestimate these six people, Taoists believe that these are the six thieves of the heart, these six emotions are the six major obstacles to human practice, and only by eliminating these six major obstacles can we practice without leakage and reach a higher realm. The so-called "if the six thieves are not eliminated, it will be difficult to succeed".

All the way to the west, Tang Seng and others want to get rid of the demons and subdue the demons, these demons are not only physical demons, but also heart demons, so the road to the west is also the road of cultivation and the road to achieve positive results.

In the end of the Journey to the West in later generations, why only Tang Seng and Sun Wukong achieved the Buddha's positive fruit, it is because they have a certain relationship with cutting off the six thieves, Sha Seng, Zhu Bajie, and Xiaobailong are because they did not cut off the six thieves, at most they have reached the Bodhisattva fruit level.

However, Tang Seng didn't understand the truth after all, and blamed him: "You are very troubled! Although he is a strong disciple who cuts the path, even if he gets a lawsuit, he should not be sentenced to death; even if you have the means, you can only retreat him, how can you kill him? This is the life of a person who hurts people for no reason, how can you be a monk?"

Sun Wukong couldn't stand the popularity in his life, he saw that Sanzang only cared about the chatter, and couldn't help but say angrily in his heart: "Since you are like this, you say that I can't be a monk, I can't go to the west, you don't have to hate me like this, I'll go back!"

Sun Wukong came to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea in a hurry, and after the Dragon King learned about it, he persuaded: "Great Sage, if you don't protect Tang Seng, don't work hard, and don't be taught, in the end you are a demon fairy. ”

When Sun Wukong heard this, he was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Mo Duo, Lao Sun will go to protect him." ”

Sun Wukong turned around and was willing to be punished, but Tang Seng recited the mantra of tightening, but he felt at ease.

In the Eagle Sorrow Stream of the Snake Pan Mountain, the mount of the Sanzang Master was eaten, which led to the Secret Blessing of the gods, who were the Six Ding Liujia, the Five Directions Jiedi, the Four Values Gong Cao, and the Eighteen Apologetic Garans.

Among them, the six dings are Ding Mao, Ding Si, Ding Wei, Ding You, Ding Hai, and Ding Chou, which are the gods of yīn, and the six jia are the gods of Yang, such as Jiazi, Jiaxu, Jiashen, Jiawu, Jiachen, and Jiayin.

Jiazi god name Yuan De character Qinggong, Jiaxu god name Xuyi word Lin Qi, Jiashen god name abbreviated word weighing, Jiawu god name Xiaoren character Ziqing, Jiachen god name Tongyuan character Yanchang, Jiayin god name fossil character Zimi, all belong to Yang xìng.

Ding Mao god name Wen Bo word Ren Gao, Ding Chou god name Wen Gong word Ren Xian, Ding Hai god name Wen Tong word Ren He, Ding You god name Wen Qing word Ren Xiu, Ding Wei god name Shengtong word Ren Gong, Ding Si God name Tingqing word Ren Jing,

Liuding Liujia is the servant of the god of the Jade Emperor, who can "act in the wind and thunder, and control the ghosts and gods", and you have the words benevolence, virtuousness, respect, respect, power, and Chang in their names, but they are the titles of Confucian children after they are gods.

The Five Directions are the Hercules who guard the five directions of Buddhism, which are the Golden Light Revelation, the Silver Head Revelation, the Pala Revelation, the Paratic Monk Revelation, and the Maha Revelation.

The four values of Gong Cao are the four gods of the year, month, rì and time in the heavenly court enshrined in Taoism, which are equivalent to the gods on duty in the heavenly realm. These four gods are Li Bing, the god of the year, Huang Chengyi, the god of the moon, Zhou Deng, and Liu Hong, the god of time.

The 18 apologists are the patron saints of the Buddhist monastery. Buddhism believes that there are a total of eighteen guardian deities in Buddhist temples, known as the eighteen apologetic garans. These eighteen garans are: beautiful sound, Sanskrit sound, heavenly drum, sigh wonder, sigh beauty, magic wonder, thunder sound, teacher character, wonderful sigh, Sanskrit sound, human sound, Buddha slave, praise virtue, wide eyes, wonderful eyes, thorough hearing, penetrating sight, and pervasive vision.

From these gods, it can be seen that they are not only people from the heavenly court, but also from Buddhism, as well as people from Taoism and Confucianism.

Not to mention these gods, and Master Sanzang accepted Zhu Bajie and Little White Dragon as disciples and devoured them
