Chapter 108: Gao Lao Zhuangzhong
Xuanzang was overjoyed, and the monks were also very happy, and shouted: "Okay! Okay! I'll wait for my life, and I will only get it all today." ”
The monkey handed the robe to Xuanzang, and then asked, "What about Ren?"
Liu Yue stepped forward and said with a smile: "The benefactor is on the side of the relics pagoda in the back mountain." ”
The monkey waved his hand and commanded, "You should prepare some food for my master......
"Master Sun is right!" the monks said, pouring their bags into the bottom, using the surplus money snatched from the fire, rectifying some fasting offerings, burning some safe and sound paper, and asking Xuanzang to recite a few volumes of scriptures to eliminate disasters and relieve misfortune.
The monkey walked towards the stupa behind him with a smile, and saw Ren Qinglian who was a little dazed from a distance.
Ren Qinglian had already thought of where she had heard the name of the female goblin at this time, and when she saw the monkey, she couldn't help but ask, "Great Sage, do you know a girl named Bai Jingjing?"
The monkey shook his head.
Ren Qinglian said again: "Actually, it's a female goblin named Bai Jingjing?"
The monkey shook his head again.
Ren Qinglian thought for a while and said, "What about the Zixia Fairy, do you know it?"
The monkey shook his head and said with a strange expression: "Ren Jushi, you want to inquire about Lao Sun's romantic debts......
Ren Qinglian couldn't smile bitterly, sneered, and pulled the topic on the black bear spirit.
The monkey didn't think much about it, and he couldn't stop laughing at the mention of the black bear spirit putting the forbidden hoop on his own.
Ren Qinglian opened her mouth and suddenly asked, "Great Sage, do you believe in the will of heaven?"
The monkey was stunned and said, "I believe it." ”
Ren Qinglian's heart sank: "If the will of heaven is doomed to fail and die, what should the Great Sage do?"
"Against the sky!" The monkey looked into the distance and said indifferently.
Ren Qinglian's heart was hot, yes, if the providence of heaven is destined to fail, then he will go against the sky, even if it disappears in the end, but at least he will live up to this life!
......
The next morning, the monks of Guanyin Temple specially painted the white dragon horse to send these old men away.
Ren Qinglian had a little grudge with Xiao Bailong, never mentioned the previous incident, and followed the monkey and led the horse seriously.
But he didn't have any intention of carrying the luggage or something, so he was all hunched on the horse, and he said: to be a monk to rely on.
Xiao Bailong secretly scolded this person for his personal vendetta, but the horizontal bones in his mouth were still there, and he couldn't speak, so he could only work hard and complain.
In the eyes of Xuanzang and the monkey, this matter seems to be a matter of course, after all, this is the legendary white dragon horse, which is not comparable to ordinary horses.
But how did they know that Ren Qinglian was full of suspicions - why did Monk Nasha carry his luggage all the way, did he regard this as part of the ascetic cultivation?
After five or six days of walking on a deserted road, the monkey saw a village from afar.
It may be because of Ren Qinglian's troubles, it was noon at this time, and I didn't see the servant Gao Cai who came out to find the magician.
The monkey looked at it for a moment and said with a smile: "Master, please go, the towering wild trees welcome the door, and the Qushui River Bridge reflects the household, this must be a good family in a village, and you can take some food and rest a little." ”
Xuanzang remembered that this monkey had scared people to death several times when he went out to fast, and now that Ren Qinglian was there, he said: "Let the layman go this time, your temper is too bad, I'm afraid you will scare others." ”
Ren Qinglian smiled secretly, this monk is also a talker, obviously his image is not as handsome as himself.
Thinking about it, he nodded, said hello to the monkey, and walked towards the village.
This place already belongs to the territory of Wusi Tibet, densely populated, just take this Gao Laozhuang as an example, it is no smaller than the medium-sized villages of the Tang Dynasty.
The bamboo fence is dense and the thatched huts are heavy. The smoke curls and the chickens and dolphins are beautiful.
Ren Qinglian found a house at the entrance of the street, knocked on the door, and ushered in a woman with a hat.
After staring at Ren Qinglian for a moment, he saw that he was dignified and well-dressed, and he was wary of it, and asked.
Ren Qinglian did not regard herself as a monk, saying that she wanted to buy some fasting food, and gave a certain amount of silver to the master.
Although the villagers are simple and say that they can probably get some fasting food, Ren Qinglian is rich and wealthy, and she is more willing to believe that money can make ghosts grind.
The woman had never seen such a large amount of silver, her eyebrows widened, and she smiled, and said, "It's just asking for a meal, what kind of money to give", but the person was more kind and enthusiastic, and introduced Ren Qinglian into the courtyard.
When the head of the family saw this mother-in-law giggling and leading a beautiful boy in, his face was a little ugly.
Fortunately, the woman knew that her wife was a vinegar jar, and said a few words in her ear, which made the man start to be happy.
Ren Qinglian doesn't know that oil and rice are expensive, so the silver must be enough for the family to eat for two months, how unhappy.
At the moment, it was needless to say that the woman went to clean up the fast, but the man took the initiative to gossip with Ren Qinglian.
"About three years ago......
The most noteworthy thing about Gao Laozhuang over the years is the marriage of Mrs. Gao's family three years ago, what the man said was full of eyebrows, and Ren Qinglian listened to it with relish.
......
Three years ago, the sky and the sun were bright, and the zodiac was auspicious, and it was appropriate to get married.
Mrs. Gao's house was lit up with lights and firecrackers. There are big red happy words pasted everywhere, and all the neighbors and people of the Gao family are happy to gather together, and they are full of praise when they talk about this rich black man.
The bridegroom also seemed to be so happy that he forgot the remains, and the wine handed by the villagers did not refuse to come, and drank it heroically.
At last in the afternoon, the bridegroom was already drunk, and seemed to be afraid that he would make a fool of himself, so he hid in a firewood room and went to rest first.
Gao's mother couldn't find anyone for a while, and vaguely heard snoring, so she took the maid to investigate.
Seeing that this cheap son-in-law was sleeping soundly, the master and servant couldn't help laughing.
Unexpectedly, the son-in-law's snoring became louder and louder, and slowly, even his ears seemed to be getting louder.
Several people rubbed their eyes, only to find that the son-in-law's nose was also arched......
A "monster" came out from afar, and it was a good wedding banquet that made chickens fly and dogs jump.
......
Afterwards, the pig demon locked Gao Cuilan in the attic, and the golden house was hidden.
Gao Taigong was naturally unwilling at first, and tried to deal with this pig demon.
But over time, secretly thinking that the raw rice had been cooked and ripe, he turned a blind eye and secretly promised this marriage.
As the saying goes: If one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.
Although this Gao Taigong's family said that he had recruited a monster son-in-law, after all, he was a big backer, not to mention, this backer was still a makeover Marshal Tianpeng.
Because this place is located at the border and surrounded by mountains, ghosts and monsters are not uncommon.
The people of Gao Laozhuang were frightened for a while, and found that the monster next door had never come out to harm people, and slowly accepted the existence of the pig demon.
However, there is never a shortage of good deeds in the world, and gossip has never stopped.
Gao Taigong didn't pay attention to it at first, but slowly, rumors of ghosts and ghosts came from the nearby villages from time to time.
People are panicking, and this spearhead is pointed at the well-known demon son-in-law of the Gao family.
The rumors spread to Gao Taigong, and the old man was so worried that he couldn't eat for several days, and the gossip made Gao Laozhuang the target of the public.
