Chapter 232: "Saving the Tree"
Jin Chanzi smiled: "The problem is that there are very few gods and Buddhas in the world who know about this. ”
"I wait for four people, enough to divide your master and apprentice five, with your condensed immortal roots, within the Three Realms, why can't you have a reputation? ”
"Do you want to keep the little monk and apprentice and get another chance at immortality?"
Zhen Yuanzi and Shouxing nodded without hesitation, their faces solemn.
Jin Cicada smiled slightly and picked up the teacup.
Zhen Yuanzi looked at Jin Chanzi's complacent appearance and said, "You think we are just joking?"
As he spoke, his body came out majestically, enveloping the golden cicada in it, and the birthday star also put on a posture, and he had the posture to subdue the golden cicada.
Jin Chanzi said: "Come to think of it, Guanyin is also about to arrive." The little monk did not expect it badly. It won't be long before the Queen Mother will come here, and if you wait for the four of you to join forces, it will be really difficult for my master and apprentice five to have a chance of winning. ”
Just as he was saying this, he suddenly saw Sun Wukong pressing his head on the clouds and shouting, "The Bodhisattva is here." Pick it up, pick it up!"
The birthday star and Zhen Yuanzi closed the formation, and saw two auspicious clouds falling in front of the door, it was Guanyin and Sun Wukong, who brought everyone out to greet them.
Everyone met and saluted each other, Sun Wukong's temperament was anxious, and he said to Zhen Yuanzi: "Daxian, don't be polite first, set up the incense case early, and ask the Bodhisattva to save the fruit tree for you!"
Zhen Yuanzi said to Guanyin Bodhisattva: "Some little things, even labor Bodhisattva's golden body!"
When Jin Chanzi saw Zhen Yuanzi's style, his brows couldn't help jumping, what kind of identity did Zhen Yuanzi have, and he actually bowed down to greet Guanyin Bodhisattva? You must know that Zhen Yuanzi and Sanqing are equal figures, and they only respect heaven and earth.
There is only one reason for doing this, Zhen Yuanzi has asked Guanyin Bodhisattva, or has some handle in the hands of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Guanyin said with a smile: "Tang Seng is my Buddhist disciple, and this matter is also Sun Wukong's fault, offended Mr., of course I have to compensate Mr. Baoshu." ”
The birthday star is also a smart person, and when he saw this, he continued to chat, but he was afraid of an accident: "In this case, there is no need to talk about it." Ask all the bodhisattvas to come to the garden and have a look. ”
Zhen Yuanzi ordered someone to prepare an incense case and clean the back garden, he led the way in front, Guanyin Bodhisattva followed, and the three stars, Tang monks and apprentices, and the gods and immortals in the temple followed behind, and came to the ginseng orchard together.
In the orchard, the ginseng fruit tree fell to the ground, and the rhizomes were out of the soil, and they were exposed in the sun, revealing a large soil pit, and the leaves fell and fell, yellow and yellow.
"Wukong, reach out!"
Sun Wukong stepped forward and stretched out his left hand, Guanyin asked him to spread out his palm, take out the willow branch, dip it in the nectar water in the jade bottle, and draw a resurrection talisman in Sun Wukong's palm, telling him to put his hand under the root of the tree.
Sun Wukong clenched his fist lightly, walked over and put his hand in the dirt pit, the back of his hand against the soil.
After a while, water gushed out of Sun Wukong's palm and flowed into the dirt pit. In a moment, the pit is like a clear spring, full of clear nectar.
Guanyin instructed: "This water must not violate the five elements, and the utensils of the five elements must not be used, but it must be scooped out with a jade scoop, and the tree should be lifted and placed upright, and then the water will be watered from top to bottom, and the natural rhizomes will enter the soil, and the tree will live." ”
Sun Wukong shouted: "Taoist priests, quickly take the jade scoop!"
"There is no jade scoop in the barren mountains of the poor road, only jade tea cups and jade wine cups, can they be used?"
"As long as it's jade, you can scoop up water. ”
Zhen Yuanzi immediately ordered the Taoist priests to take out twenty or thirty jade tea cups and forty or fifty jade wine cups, and scoop out the clear water in the soil pit under the roots of the tree one by one.
Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Monk stepped forward together, using the magic power of the law and heaven and earth, all of them were 100 feet tall, and carried the tree upright. Then he carefully covered the soil and trampled it firmly, and then held the nectar water in the jade cup one by one to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Guanyin Bodhisattva is solemn, the jade hand pinched the net bottle of willow branches, dipped in water in the jade cup, recited words in the mouth, and gently sprinkled the nectar on the willow branches on the ginseng fruit tree.
The leaves of the ginseng fruit tree slowly change, slowly turning from withered to yellow, from yellow to green.
After a long time, the nectar water in the seventy or eighty cups of jade was sprinkled clean, and the ginseng fruit tree was as green and green as before, lush and green, and the whole tree was full of life. Under the large leaves of the plantain leaves, there are many baby-like treasures hanging in the crystal, which is the ginseng fruit.
The breeze and the moon counted the fruits, and there were twenty-three.
Qingfeng blinked his eyes and said suspiciously: "The day before yesterday, there were only twenty-two, and now that the fruit trees have regenerated, why is there another one?"
The day before yesterday, Lao Sun only stole three, and the other one fell to the ground and disappeared, and I also asked about the land, and the land said that this treasure would enter when it met the soil. Bajie loudly blamed me for swallowing one privately, and only then did I leak the news, and now the truth is finally revealed!"
'Haha. Zhu Bajie smirked.
"I didn't use the Five Elements Vessel just now, but I knew that the ginseng fruit tree and the Five Elements were mutually reinforcing. ”
Zhen Yuanzi laughed: "The dead wood is in spring, and the house is full of friends! The breeze and the moon are bright, go and shoot ten fruits! Do a ginseng fruit meeting!"
Qingfeng and Mingyue all said goodbye and went out of the park to get the utensils. The ginseng fruit tree came to life, everyone rejoiced, and everyone returned to the main hall with Zhen Yuanzi.
Zhen Yuanzi ordered people to set up tables and chairs, and invited Guanyin Bodhisattva to sit on the guest, Fu Lu Shou Sanxing sat on the left, Tang monk and apprentice sat on the right, and he himself sat on the master's seat to accompany him.
After a while, the Taoist priests brought the Dan Pan and placed it in front of everyone, and the Dan Pan was placed with the ginseng fruit of the Immortal Family. Zhen Yuanzi invites everyone to enjoy the ginseng fruit together, one Guanyin Bodhisattva, one for each of the three stars, one for the Tang monks and apprentices, one for Zhen Yuanzi, and one for the immortals in the Wuzhuang Temple.
Exactly, in the ancient cave of Wanshou Mountain, ginseng has been ripe for 9,000 years. The spiritual roots show bud and branch damage, and the nectar breeds all the fruits and leaves. The birthday star is happy to meet the old contract, and the four monks are fortunate to meet the front edge. From now on, I will serve ginseng fruits, and I am full of immortal immortals.
At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Shouxing each ate one, Jin Chanzi did not shirk at this time, and also ate one, Wukong and the three of them also ate one, Zhen Yuanzi accompanied one, and Benguan Immortal shared one.
After the ginseng fruit will be dispersed, Sun Wukong thanked Guanyin Bodhisattva and Fulu Shou Samsung, Guanyin Bodhisattva returned to the South China Sea, and Sanxing returned to Penglai.
Zhen Yuanzi had previously said that if he healed the ginseng fruit tree, he would become a brother with Sun Wukong, and now that the fruit tree is alive, he will not break his promise?
Zhu Bajie opened his belly and ate a full meal, and the four of them slept comfortably in the temple that night.
Early the next morning, Jin Chanzi asked his apprentice to pack his luggage and prepare to set off for the west.
Zhen Yuanzi refused to let go, and insisted on staying for a few more days before leaving.
This stay, just five or six days, Tang Seng since eating ginseng fruit, the body is becoming more and more refreshed day by day, it is really reborn, I feel more and more energetic, but I always feel that there is a trace of baby breath in the ginseng fruit. On the sixth day of living, the golden cicada refused to live anymore and must go.
Zhen Yuanzi saw that he couldn't keep it, so he arranged a meal trip.
The four masters and apprentices ate, thanked Zhen Yuanzi, went out of Wuzhuang Temple, and walked to the west again.
As he walked, there was another high mountain in front of him, and the golden cicada said on the horse: "Apprentices, the mountain in front is so high, everyone be careful!"
"Master, don't worry, we know!" Sun Wukong responded, took the golden hoop stick, swept forward, swept away the thorns on the mountain road, and led the golden cicada to the mountain.
This mountain is steep, the peaks and peaks overlap, the grass is deep and the forest is dense, it is the deep mountain old forest that has not seen the traces of people for 10,000 years, and you can see the tigers and wolves walking in groups on the road, looking at the four people while walking with their big mouths open, and the big python and long snake crawling in groups, spitting out a long three-pronged letter, which makes people feel cold.
The golden cicada saw it on the horse, and wondered in his heart, this place is not far from Wuzhuang Temple, how can there be so many murderous things?
Sun Dasheng gave a charity, dancing with an iron rod, and roared, bluffing the wolf worm and the tiger and leopard to escape.
After walking for a while, Jin Chanzi reined in the horse and called out to Sun Wukong and said, "Wukong, it's been almost a day, I'm so hungry, where are you going to find some fasting to eat." ”
Sun Wukong smiled and said: "Master, you are really smart! In this deep mountain and old forest, halfway up the mountainside, there is no village in front of you, no store in the back, even if you have money, there is no place to buy it, where do you tell me to find food?"
Jin Chanzi walked physically and mentally exhausted, and when he heard Sun Wukong say this, he remembered that Sun Wukong had caused a big disaster in Wuzhuang Guan and delayed his trip for six or seven days, otherwise he would have walked through this mountain earlier.
Jin Chanzi got angry and scolded: "You monkey! You were pressed by the Buddha in the stone crack in the Five Elements Mountain, and you couldn't move for five hundred years, thanks to me for saving your life, giving you the ordination of Moding, and becoming my apprentice." Why do you like to be lazy more and more now? I want you to find something to eat, and I don't want to go!"
"The disciple has always been very diligent, where is he lazy?"
"If you are diligent, why don't you go and fasting for me? I'm hungry, how can I walk? You see that this mountain is full of miasma, if you don't have the strength and spirit, how can you walk? You can't walk, how can you get to the West Heaven, to the Leiyin Temple?"
"Master, don't be angry, don't say any more. I know if I upset you, you're going to have to recite that mantra again! It's a little flatter in front, you get off your horse and sit there, and I'll find a place to fast. ”
Jin Chanzi stopped and followed Sun Wukong to the Pingyang place in front.
When he got to a flat place, he asked the golden cicada to sit down in the grass under the shade of the trees on the side of the road, and Sun Wukong jumped up and flew into the air, holding a canopy to look around.
As far as the eye could see, there was no one in sight, only a red place on a high hill in the south. When I opened my eyes, it turned out to be a peach forest.
"Master, there's something to eat!" Sun Wukong pressed the cloud head and fell to the ground.
"What's eaten?"
"There are no people here on all sides to fast, only a mountain peach forest hundreds of miles to the south, and I will pick a few to satisfy your hunger. ”
"The monks have peaches to eat, it's okay, you go quickly!"
Sun Wukong took the bowl and cup, and the auspicious light was raised, you see him fighting in disguise, the air conditioning was blowing, and in a moment, he went to Nanshan to pick peaches.
