Chapter 287: On the Camel Village
The more dangerous the old man said about the Seven Peerless Mountains, the more disdainful the monkey became, and when he saw Xuanzang's shocked face, he couldn't help but step forward and shouted: "You old man is so unsympathetic! I will come to stay far away, and you will say so many words to bluff people! If you don't want to stay overnight, I will say it clearly, we will squat under this tree, and it will be over this night, why do we need to be so endless?"
The old man was not afraid of this hairy-faced monk, and pointed at him with a quinoa cane and said: "You guy, you have a flat nose and sunken cheeks, you don't know how thick the sky is, what are you doing to bump into my old man!"
"Wukong is rude!" Xuanzang shouted.
Only then did the monkey smile and said: "Master, don't blame, it's all this old official who has no eyes and doesn't know how powerful my grandson is!" After speaking, he couldn't help but say proudly to the old man: "As the saying goes, 'Describe strange, there is a treasure of beautiful jade in the stone.'" 'If you judge people by their words, it is very inappropriate, although my grandson is ugly, but he has some means. ”
Ren Qinglian's heart moved, the monkey is going to report to his family.
But what puzzled him was that in the original work, it was mentioned that when the Bodhi ancestor expelled the monkey, he once said: "If you say half a word, I will know it, and you will be skinned and filed, and your soul will be reduced to the nine secluded places, and you will not be able to turn over!"
But now, how can this monkey be open-mouthed again?
Ren Qinglian didn't know that in the difficulty of the six-eared macaque, the appearance of the Bodhi ancestor made the monkey suddenly understand that his expulsion from the master was just an illusion, and the Bodhi ancestor had actually been caring about him all these years, and even his master had a lot of relationship with Buddhism!
In this case, those warnings back then can naturally be ignored, this monkey is a guy who loves to show off, mentioning his origin and supernatural powers, he is a little unable to keep his mouth shut: "My old grandson's ancestor lives in Dongsheng Shenzhou, worships the spirit platform, and has magical martial arts all around, can stir up the sea and descend the dragon mother, be good at carrying the mountain to catch the sun, bind monsters and capture demons, move stars and change fights, steal the world and change the earth, and the changes are endless!"
It's a pity that the old man is a genuine mortal, the monkey said that he is the only one in heaven and earth, and the old man just sneered and disagreed, and bowed down to Xuanzang and asked, "Elder, please!"
Ren Qinglian laughed secretly when she saw it, and stepped forward to ask: "If it's just the poisonous miasma formed by some persimmon trees, I'm afraid there is nothing to be afraid of in these Seven Peerless Mountains, there must be some powerful monsters on this mountain, which makes the old man so afraid!"
The old man had already noticed this normal-looking young man, and when he heard his words, he explained while walking: "It's not a secret, we have been peaceful here for a long time, but three years ago, suddenly a gust of wind rose, at that time everyone was busy farming, the wheat was on the field, and the rice planters were in the field, all panicked, only said that the sky had changed, who knew that the wind was everywhere, but there was a goblin, who ate the cattle and horses grazing by the villagers, pigs and sheep, the goblin was extremely ferocious, and saw the chickens and geese swallowing, and all men and women were swallowed alive......"
Hearing the old man's words, he couldn't help but hum: "I think you are too stingy, and you are reluctant to go to the surrounding temples to ask a mage to come and subdue the demon!"
This place belongs to the small west heaven and earth realm of Maitreya Buddha, there are many temples and Taoist temples along the way, whether it is the Buddha or the Tao, offer some incense, you can always find a few monks with magic to come and subdue demons.
It's good not to mention this, but the old man listened to the monkey's words but complained bitterly: "Where haven't I been invited, the monk is also wearing a collar robe, first talking about "Peacock", and then reading "Fahua", alarming the demons, the wind and clouds, and the monster fought for a while, but there was no sound, we stepped forward to see, the smooth head had already been beaten into a rotten watermelon. ”
Ren Qinglian knew that the red-scaled python was the doppelganger of the Heaven Devouring Demon King, not to mention a few ordinary monks with a little Taoism, even monkeys and others, and it would take some effort to clean it up.
The old man became more and more angry the more he spoke: "After the monk died, more troubles followed, so we bought him a coffin for burial, and gave him some silver with his apprentice." His apprentices are still in their hearts, and they are still making a fuss to complain to the government!"
These people who wanted to come to Dhara Village were also tossed miserably by that group of monks, and the demon did not descend, and they also caused a commotion.
The old man talked about the Taoist priest he had invited, and the result was similar.
Xiao Xitian is considered the fief of the Buddha to acquiesce to the Maitreya Buddha, this Buddha from the east knows that he can have today's achievements and Lao Tzu sage is inseparable, naturally he also has the intention to please, so on this land, there are also a lot of Taoist temples.
Xuanzang listened, and even said to Amitabha, "The old donor can rest assured, the poor monks' apprentices do have some Taoism, and they can also subdue demons and eliminate demons, but we don't want gold, silver and copper money, and we don't want thousands of acres of fertile land." This is exactly what it is: to save the camel from the defilement of the Tao and to be pure.
Although the old man felt that Xuanzang looked like a monk with a way, he was still a little skeptical.
The monkey was already eager to try, and secretly thought: If you don't show some skills, you will really be looked down upon by this old man. Secretly let go of his breath, and soon he felt the presence of that monster, conveying a provocative thought.
At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, the black clouds were indifferent, and the lights were dull and gloomy.
Soon, the demon wind struck, and the old man went straight under the table in horror, Xuanzang, who was regarded as a great and virtuous monk, was not much better, even faster than the old man hid, and the two of them crowded under the table in the room, looking out tremblingly.
The demonic aura was pervasive, the night was flying, and in the midst of panic, I saw two lantern-like eyes appear in the sky.
"What a giant python!" Zhu Gangguan gasped, but Ren Qinglian knew that this was not an ordinary giant python, but a strange beast swallowing python.
Even with the help of the Nine Shadows Xuan Pupil, Ren Qinglian saw more, when the red-scaled python flew out of the Seven Peerless Mountains, the poisonous gas all over its body was permeated, and everywhere it went, the flowers and plants that had just emerged withered one after another, and a rancid smell of sulfur was also drifting away with the night wind.
The word "Swallowing Heaven" in the name of the Sky Swallowing Python has nothing to do with devouring magical powers, although this large monster can swallow creatures that are several times larger than its size. In fact, the reason why the Sky Swallowing Python dares to claim to swallow the sky is only because of a strange poison, which claims to be able to corrode everything, melt everything, and then swallow everything!
And the legendary Colorful Sky Swallowing Python is one of the most poisonous beasts in the wilderness!
But the monkey laughed and said, "'The night walk is with a candle, and the candle is without a candle.'" "This goblin is showing us the way, let's go over and have a look!"
Zhu Gangguan and Ren Qinglian followed, leaving Sha Wujing to protect Xuanzang.
