Monk Sha was overjoyed in his heart, and when he got closer, he saw Sun Wukong sitting high on the stone platform, pulling a piece of paper with both hands, and read aloud:

"Emperor Li of the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, before driving the imperial brother Holy Monk Chen Xuanzang, went to the Western Tianzhu Kingdom Suo Po Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple to worship the Buddha and seek scriptures.

"I invaded my body due to the promotion of illness, and my soul traveled to the underworld, fortunately, I was sent back to life by the Emperor of the Underworld, and I was able to build a dojo for the dead.

"Sheng Meng rescues the suffering and saves the golden body of Guanyin Bodhisattva, indicating that there are Buddhas and scriptures in the West, and they can live away from the seclusion. If you pass through the countries of the Western Countries, you will not destroy the good karma, and you will do it according to it.

"The thirteenth year of the Tang Dynasty Zhenguan autumn auspicious day before the imperial text. Since other big countries, the longitude of the states, halfway to the big apprentice Sun Wukong Walker, the second apprentice Zhu Wuneng Bajie, the third apprentice Sha Wujing monk. ”

Sun Wukong's words were passionate, he read it again, and recited it again from the beginning, it seemed to be very fun, and he was still unfinished.

The latter paragraph was added by the queen of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.

Monk Sha heard that this was a customs clearance document, and couldn't help but walk up and shout:

"Senior brother, Master's Guan Wen, what are you doing with it?"

Sun Wukong heard someone shouting, looked up, and ordered the monkey demons: "Take it! Take it!"

The monkey demons came in a hurry, and Monk Sha did not resist, and dragged him to Sun Wukong with the monkey demons.

"Who are you, dare to trespass into my fairy cave?"

Sun Wukong sat high on the stone platform and asked loudly.

Seeing that he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, Monk Sha had to bow upwards and said:

"Senior brother, last time, the master was too anxious, he cursed the senior brother several times and expelled him home, and the brother did not persuade him, it was the brother's fault, and I ask for forgiveness.

"Master was hungry and thirsty on the road, my second brother and I went to fetch water and fast, and the senior brother came back with good intentions, and blamed the master for not taking him in, knocked the master unconscious, and snatched the luggage.

"We woke up Master, Master ordered me to come and beg Senior Brother, and asked Senior Brother to stop hating Master, reciting the grace of liberation under the Five Elements Mountain back then, and taking the luggage back to see Master with Little Brother, and going to the West Heaven together to achieve positive results.

"If the senior brother is too resentful and refuses to go back, please give the burden to the younger brother, the senior brother is at ease in the fairy mountain, and it is useless to take the burden. ”

Sun Wukong smiled: "Senior brother, I don't like to hear what you say." I beat Tang Seng and grabbed luggage, not because I didn't want to go to the West, nor because I wanted to live in the mountains for a long time. You also heard me reading the text just now, and now I am familiar with the text, remember in my heart, I went to the West to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, sent back to the east, let the Tang monk return empty-handed, I succeeded alone, and then called the people of Nanbu Zhou to make me an ancestor, and pass on the name from generation to generation. ”

This monkey originally wanted to learn the scriptures by himself and swallow the fruits alone!

Monk Sha smiled:

"Senior brother's words are wrong! Where is the truth of Sun Wukong's scriptures? My Buddha came to create the Sanzang Sutra and asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to go to the east to find people to learn the scriptures to ask for scriptures. The three of us brothers were just ordered by Guanyin Bodhisattva to protect the people who learned the scriptures all the way.

"The Bodhisattva once said: The person who took the scriptures is the second disciple of Rulai, called Elder Jin Chan. It was only because he did not listen to the Buddha's decree and was careless of the Dharma that the Buddha demoted him to Lingshan and reincarnated in the eastern land. Tell him to go back to the West to obtain the true scriptures, promote the teachings of the East, and then get the right results.

"Senior brother went to learn the scriptures, without Tang Seng, where would the Buddha pass on the scriptures to you?

Sun Wukong didn't laugh angrily, and said: "Senior brother, what you said is reasonable, but you only know one thing, but you don't know the other." The purpose of Rulai is only to pass on the scriptures to the southern Ganbu Continent, but he doesn't have to be someone to take the scriptures, so he will pass on the scriptures.

"At that time, he said in the Da Lei Yin Temple: He has a Dharma and a Tibet, talking about the heavens, talking about the earth, a scripture and a Tibet, and a ghost, and a total of 35 books of the Sanzang Sutra, 15,144 volumes, originally wanted to send it to the East Soil, but he was worried that the sentient beings in the East Earth would be stupid, slander the truth, and neglect the Dharma, so he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to find a person to learn the scriptures.

"Let the people who learn the scriptures go through thousands of mountains, thousands of rivers, and go through all the hardships to find the true scriptures. The true scriptures are not easy to come by, and they will be cherished, passed on to the east forever, and persuade sentient beings.

"Besides, you said that you have Tang Seng, but I don't have Tang Seng? I have chosen another monk with Taoism, and Lao Sun will go to learn the scriptures with him alone, why not? I have already chosen a good day and an auspicious day, and I will leave in a few days.

"Don't you believe it, wait until I ask you to come out and take a look!"

Monk Sha heard that there was another Tang monk, and his face showed a suspicious look.

Sun Wukong shouted: "Little ones, please come out!"

A few little monkey demons ran in and pulled out a white horse, and immediately sat a Tang monk, followed by a Zhu Bajie carrying luggage, and a sand monk holding a tin staff.

When Monk Zhensha saw this, he was furious and shouted: "If my old Sha Xing doesn't change his name, he won't change his surname, where is there another Sha monk! Don't be rude! Eat me with a stick!"

rushed up, raised the demon scepter with both hands, hit it with a stick, and killed the fake sand monk with a single head, and fell to the ground, showing his original form, it turned out to be a monkey spirit.

Sun Wukong was furious when he saw it, picked up the golden hoop stick and jumped down to fight.

Monk Sha knew that he couldn't defeat him, so he hurriedly drove away from the clouds, thinking as he ran: "This monkey dares to do this, I'll go and tell the Bodhisattva." "Flew to the South China Sea.

Sun Wukong didn't chase after him, and asked the monkey demons to skin the monkey who had been killed, cut off the meat and drink it. I also chose another monkey demon who would change, and then conjured up a sand monk, just waiting for a good day and an auspicious day, and then went to the west to learn scriptures.

Monk Sha drove the clouds, left the East China Sea, flew for another day and night, arrived at Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea, pressed the cloud head, and went to find the Chaoyin Cave of the Purple Bamboo Forest.

As he was walking, he saw Venerable Hui'an coming over and asked him, "Sha Wujing, you don't want Tang Seng to learn scriptures, what are you doing here?"

Monk Sha replied: "If you have something to see the Bodhisattva, you will be introduced to the Bodhisattva." ”

Hui'an knew that it was for Sun Wukong's business, so he didn't say much, so he went in to report it.

Sun Wukong stood under the lotus platform, heard that Monk Sha was coming, and said with a smile: "It must be Tang Seng who is in trouble, and Monk Sha came to invite the Bodhisattva." ”

Guanyin ordered Hui'an to call Monk Sha in.

Monk Sha entered the cave and bowed down. After worshipping, he raised his head, and suddenly saw Sun Wukong standing next to him, and immediately became angry, raised the demon scepter and hit Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong hurriedly dodged sideways.

Seeing that the blow missed, Monk Sha scolded loudly: "You heinous monkey! The wicked man sued first, and came over to deceive the Bodhisattva!"

Guanyin stopped him and said, "Wujing, don't do anything, tell me anything beforehand." ”

Monk Sha didn't dare to do it again, took the scepter, bowed to the audience, and said angrily:

"This monkey has been murdering all the way, and it is uncountable. A few days ago, he killed two robbers in the mountains, and the master blamed him a few words.

"Unexpectedly, at night, I borrowed the dormitory to be at the robber's house, and the robber's old father came to report the news, opened the back door and let us escape, but was chased by the gang, and the monkey beat all the people to death, and brought a bloody head to show the master.

The master was so frightened that he fell off his horse, scolded him, and drove him back. After the separation, the master was hungry and thirsty, so he asked Bajie to look for water, and after waiting for a long time and not coming back, he asked me to look for him.

"Unexpectedly, when the monkey saw that the two of us were not there, he ran back and beat the master with an iron rod and snatched the two green felt burdens.

"We came back to wake up Master, and Master told me to go to his Water Curtain Cave to ask him for his burden. I didn't want him to change his face and refuse to recognize me, so I read and read the master's customs clearance documents there.

"I asked him what he was doing when he read the papers, and he said that he didn't protect Tang Seng anymore, and he wanted to go to the west to learn the scriptures, send them back to the east land, count his merits, and ask the people of Nanbu Zhou to make him an ancestor and spread it through the ages.

"I said, "If there is no Tang monk, how will I pass on the scriptures to you?" He said that he chose a monk with a high degree.

"Please come out and take a look, sure enough, there is also a white horse, a Tang monk, followed by a Zhu Bajie, a sand monk.

"I said that I am the sand monk, where did a sand monk run out? I ran up, killed with a cane, and it turned out to be a monkey spirit. So he brought people to arrest me, and I ran away desperately to tell the Bodhisattva.

"I didn't expect him to somersault quickly, he came here first, and the wicked sued first. I don't know what kind of rhetoric he said to deceive the Bodhisattva. ”

Guanyin said: "Wujing, don't rely on people, Wukong came to me four days ago, I haven't let him go back, where can he invite Tang Seng to learn the scriptures by himself?"

Monk Sha was taken aback: This monkey has already deceived the Bodhisattva into believing him?

hurriedly defended: "The disciple saw a Monkey King with his own eyes in the Water Curtain Cave, how dare he coax the Bodhisattva?"

Guanyin said: "In this case, don't worry about it first, ask Wukong to go to Huaguo Mountain with you to have a look, it can't be fake, it can't be fake, and everything will naturally understand when you go there." ”

Sun Wukong heard next to him that someone had changed him, occupied his Huaguo Mountain, and pretended to be him to go to the West to learn scriptures, so he was so angry that he scratched his ears and cheeks. If it weren't for the fact that it was in the tide sound cave, it would have already jumped like thunder.

As soon as he heard that he and Monk Sha were asked to go back to Huaguo Mountain to see if it was true or not, where could he still hold it? Immediately bowed to Guanyin, walked out of the cave with Monk Sha, and rushed back to Huaguo Mountain.

Sun Wukong was anxious, he was fast in somersaults, and he was slow with Sha Monk Yun, and he couldn't wait, so he had to go back first.

Monk Sha hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Senior brother, don't play this trick! If you go back and make all the arrangements first, how can you prove your innocence? No! You have to go with your junior brother!"

Sun Wukong was anxious, and when he saw Monk Sha say this, he grabbed Monk Sha's hand and led him away in the clouds.

This time, it didn't take much time, and it didn't take long to arrive at Huaguo Mountain.

The two pressed the cloud head in front of the water curtain cave, walked over to take a look, and sure enough, they saw a Monkey King there, sitting on a high stone platform, drinking and having fun with the monkeys.

Looking at the appearance, it is difficult to argue whether it is true or false, it is also yellow hair, wearing a golden hoop, a hairy face and a thunderous mouth, with exposed fangs, a sharp ear and a wide forehead, flat cheeks, and a golden eye, also wearing a brocade cloth straight jacket, a tiger skin skirt tied around the waist, and a gold hoop iron rod in his hand.
