Chapter 8: The Mysterious Taoist

"I heard that the national teacher went to the west to seek the true scriptures, and the merits were immeasurable, and Song Ye, the general soldier of the Hezhou Guard, specially led the soldiers to greet him, and the lower officials were ready to feast for the national teacher to receive the wind and wash the dust, and also hope to appreciate the light. ”

"Sure enough, he came back to life. ”

Tang Song slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the flattering black fat man in front of him in a daze, Tang Song, who had already had two rebirth experiences, was no longer surprised, but it was strange that the rebirth point set up after death this time seemed to have changed, not in Chang'an, there was no Guanyin Bodhisattva, no Li Yuan, and no good friend Li Jiancheng, but reborn to the moment when he first arrived in Hezhouwei.

"National Teacher?"

Tang Song blinked, looked at the cautious black fat man in front of him, and coughed lightly and asked, "It's okay, where did we just go?"

Song Ye also blinked, beeped the husky wildly in his heart, and forced a smile: "Xia Guan just said that he had prepared a vegetarian banquet for the national teacher, I don't know——"

"Ah! It turns out that just when I said this, the poor monk was also hungry, so what are you waiting for? Don't you lead the way quickly!" Tang Song waved his hand to interrupt Song Ye, and the old man's stomach was already hungry and thirsty.

A group of several people slowly came to the banquet hall, Tang Song sat in the center, looking at the various wild vegetables and fruits placed in front of him, he couldn't help frowning, you are feeding rabbits!

Tang Song coughed lightly, raised his head to look at Song Ye, and said solemnly: "This Hezhou Wei is my Tang border town, sparsely populated and limited in materials.

"Thank you for your concern, although the location of this Hezhou Wei is remote and sparsely populated, it lives by the mountains, there is a lot of game, and the food and accommodation have never been bitter. Song Ye replied truthfully.

Tang Song raised his eyebrows: "Oh, is there venison?"

"Yes!"

"Is there a bear's paw?"

"Yes, too!"

"What about the Tiger Whip?"

"Well, this one too. ”

"Just say yes, take it!" Tang Song slapped the table and said angrily, this is too ignorant.

Song Ye: "......"

"Although there is no shortage of game and meat here in Xiaguan, but the national teacher is a high-ranking monk, those are afraid ......" Song Ye beeped the husky again in his heart, wiped the cold sweat between his foreheads, and looked embarrassed.

Tang Song's face softened slightly, and then said with a pleasant face: "In fact, there are many misunderstandings in the world, people who believe in Buddhism, cultivate the state of mind, as long as there is a Buddha in the heart, naturally there is no evasion, those who ban meat and abstain from sex, most of them are not at home after practice, wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha has left in his heart, which is what he said." Amitabha, don't worry about it anymore, bring all that wild meat!"

Song Ye was shocked: This bald donkey not only doesn't seem to abstain from meat, but it seems that even women are not taboo in his obedience.

After a while, it was a table of delicacies again, with all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and everyone was silent during the banquet, looking at the monks in front of them who threw off their cheeks and ate with their mouths full of oil, and their hearts became more and more weird.

"Well, this carp is well cooked, everyone can try it. Tang Song sandwiched a large piece of crystal clear fish meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly with half-squinted eyes, savored it for a long time, and then stroked his palm and praised.

Song Ye was shocked when he heard this, he jumped up, his face turned red, and hurriedly said: "Master Mingjian, this is just an ordinary river fish, not a carp." ”

Tang Song was stunned, he just praised it casually, who thought that this chief soldier would react so much.

Wait – carp!

It turns out that the problem is here, Tang and Song were speechless for a long time, and sighed lightly, the Tang Dynasty Lao Li has a lot of family affairs, because your surname is Li, you are not allowed to eat carp, this logic is simply great, then the Zhou Dynasty should not be allowed to eat chicken, the Ming Dynasty should not be allowed to eat pork, fortunately, there was no bra in the Song Dynasty, otherwise wearing a mask is simply a contempt for imperial power.

For more than half an hour, after everyone was full of wine and food, the chief soldier Song Ye stood beside Tang Song and said with a smile: "Master Guoshi, I don't know when to leave?"

Tang Song picked his teeth and said casually: "This is not in a hurry in advance, it is not too late to wait for the poor monk to rest for a while before going on the road." ”

The black fat man's eyes were dark, so he couldn't bear his breath, laughed twice, and hurriedly sent Tang Song to the guest room to rest.

Tang Song was lying on the soft big bed, but he was very distressed in his heart. This double fork ridge seems to have become an unsolvable problem, breaking through alone is pure death, but with the ability of the three demons, even if there are more mortals, it is useless, it will only add casualties, and at this time, there are no three disciples around to protect them, and there is no immortal help, can only choose to detour in the end?

Otherwise, buy a few more children's rhymes and try 300 songs, see if you can spell out the true scriptures of the Great Day, or learn the palm technique that falls from the sky, Tang Song smiled bitterly, simply stopped thinking about it, and fell asleep.

Time flies and time flies (so feeling...... In a blink of an eye, Tang and Song dynasties had stayed in the General Military Mansion for half a month.

On this day, the general soldier Song Ye came to greet as usual, staring at Tang and Song with a bitter face, and only after a long time did he hesitate to ask: "The national teacher is ordered to ask for scriptures, but why does he stop here? But what is the difficulty?"

Tang Song frowned, and couldn't help sighing, to this day, it seems that he can only choose the next strategy - bypass the Shuangjiao Ridge, as for what new disasters will be caused by cause and effect later, just leave it to fate!

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report, saying that there was a person outside the door, saying that it could relieve the troubles of the holy monks.

Dressed in a white robe, his hair is like a filament, his beard is fluttering, and he is holding a dust whisk, so he is a dusty monk.

The two good-looking monks and old Taoists met together, staring at each other with big eyes, but it was a pity that there was one less master beside him to accompany him, and this strange aura made Song Ye couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"But the monk who worships the Buddha in the West Heaven and asks for scriptures?" the Taoist chief looked at for a long time before slowly asking.

"It's a poor monk, I don't know where the reason for the long term came from?"

"It is the relief of the sorrow of your heart. ”

"Why does the Taoist know about the troubles of the poor monks?"

"It's just because you and I are destined. ”

......

Tang Song felt so tired, and he was most annoyed by this kind of person who spoke in a foggy manner, which seemed to be unfathomable, but in fact he had no nutrition at all, it was all special nonsense.

"Who is the Dao Chief?" Tang Song rolled his eyes and simply asked directly.

"Hahahaha!" The man laughed twice and shouted: "Poor Dao was originally a Kunlun guest, and there is an old house on the south side of the stone bridge. Cultivation is the beginning of the Tao and the beginning of the Yuan, and only then can you live forever and know the obedience. The purple gold pill in the Hugh Kua furnace must be known to burn jade liquid in the fire. Cross the Qingluan, ride the white crane ......"

"Stop, stop, stop the Taoist!" Tang Song felt his heart more tired, and hurriedly interrupted, saying that this person is a psychopath! Didn't he say it well just now? Why did he suddenly compose poems, is this showing me poetry and songs? It seems that this is going to fight poetry with me! I'll go, I'm still afraid of this when I have crossed over?! Li Shangyin, Wen Tingyun, Xin Qiji, Li Qingzhao, Nalan Rongruo, which one of them is not a well-known person, but I can't memorize their poems!

Tang Song looked up at the sky, his face was inexplicably filled with a trace of sorrow, and he paced a few steps lightly, and then slowly spoke: "When is the bright moon?" I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dancing to figure out the shadow, how does it seem to be in the world? Turn the Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, and shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”

After Tang Song finished prostitution, he squinted his eyes and savored it, then he looked at the Taoist with a smug face, and said that he wanted to play with Lao Tzu, you are still tender!

Taoist: "......"

"Poor road doesn't mean that. The Taoist chief looked confused, feeling that there seemed to be some misunderstanding in the middle, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with this monk who was full of funny attributes, and said directly: "Poor Dao came here this time to help the holy monk cross the double fork ridge. ”

"Huh?!"

The words of the Taoist were like a thunderclap, which shook Tang Song's delicate body, thinking of the various hardships of the previous tragic death, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart for a while: Finally, when someone came to help Lao Tzu, this should be the original rhythm of Journey to the West! Could it be that the aura of his protagonist opened too late the first few times, so he didn't catch up? Tang Song thought wildly.

But I don't know where this person came from, you must know that those who can get involved in the Journey to the West are all immortals and Buddhas, looking at the image of this person, and then thinking of the original plot, Tang Song couldn't help but light up, clapped his hands and shouted: "Tai Bai Xing, why did you come!"

Taoist: "......"

"You misunderstood, poor is not the person you think. "Daoists have been cultivating qi for many years, so naturally they will not be angry because of this trivial matter.

"Tai Bai Xing, don't hide it anymore, can you still escape my old Tang's fiery eyes?" Tang Song laughed twice, pointed his eyes with two fingers and then pointed at the eyes of the Taoist, with a smug expression, looking like I had seen through you.

"Poor Dao is really not that too platinum star!" The smile on the Daoist's face was already a little stiff, and a cold light shot out of his eyes, and he said in an accentuated tone.

Tang Song frowned, isn't this person really too platinum?" "Then dare to ask who is the name of the chief?"

"The poor road was originally a Kunlun guest, there is an old house on the south side of the stone bridge, and the cultivation is mixed with the beginning of the Yuan, and only then does he know the ...... of immortality and obedience."

"Alright, okay, okay. Tang Song hurriedly interrupted, this person must be sick, "I already know the intention of the Taoist chief, and the poor monk has thanked him in advance." Tang Song directly gave up the idea of asking for the identity of the Taoist, who do you love, as long as you can help me avoid the Double Fork Ridge.

The Taoist nodded, and waved his hand to whisk the dust: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, why don't you go on the road with me now?"

"Couldn't be better!"

......

In the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple, the Buddha was full, Guanyin Bodhisattva stood beside the Buddha, and suddenly bowed down and said: "Buddha, the person who took the scriptures passed through the Shuangcha Ridge this time, and it was a death robbery, but it was broken by the land pressure man. ”

"Amitabha!" If the Buddha recited the Buddha's name, he was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "It's okay, you don't have to pay attention to the matter of land pressure, the matter of learning scriptures has already been determined, and it cannot be reversed by one person." ”

"The disciple knows. ”

In the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, the fairy aura was swirling, and the Jade Emperor sat on a high chair, looking at the graceful dancing of the fairies below, and was stunned.

At this time, Tai Bai Xing slowly walked into the hall and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the person who learned the scriptures has passed the Double Fork Ridge safely. ”

"Oh?!" The Jade Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the immortal fruit in his hand, stared at Tai Bai Xing with his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Tai Bai Xing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly said: "Originally, the minister had made sufficient arrangements in the Shuangjiao Ridge, and the monk was dead, but I didn't expect that the Lu Zhudao man would intervene for some reason, and the minister would not dare to act rashly. ”

"Lu Jian Daojun......" The Jade Emperor narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he waved his hand slightly: "You don't have to pay attention to this matter, see how the Buddha Sect responds, the heavenly court doesn't have to interfere, and there is - send the god who takes care of the demon monkey back, and the evil dragon will also be sent to the mortal world first, since someone wants to mix up this pool of water, the widow will complete one or two, I want to see what Lu Pressure has planned!"

"Obey the order, the minister retires. ”
