Chapter 598: The Rhino Essence That Stole the Sesame Oil
At this time, the Monkey King looked helpless on the surface, but in fact, his heart was happy, originally he was still worried about how to deal with the Yellow Lion Spirit and other monsters, the monkey did not want to hurt their lives, but at this time, the gods of the five sides were hidden in the dark, if the Monkey King blatantly released these monsters, I was afraid that when the time came, they would report to Heaven or Lingshan, and the Monkey King would not be easy to explain.
When the Monkey King was embarrassed, he didn't expect the Bull Demon King to appear to save the demons, and someone sent a pillow just after he wanted to doze off. Now the Bull Demon King is a master of the pinnacle of quasi-saints, and in the eyes of everyone, the Monkey King is not the opponent of the Bull Demon King, as for the gods of the Liuding Liujia, well, let's wash and sleep, if it is really against the Bull Demon King, I am afraid that one will hit the stomach down, in this case, the Monkey King will let go of the monster, there is enough reason, the Monkey King can be said to have to compromise in order to protect Tang Seng.
In this way, the Monkey King and the Liuding Liujia and other gods watched as the Bull Demon King ordered the Yellow Lion Spirit to lead the six brothers and hundreds of little demons to dot the hole and gather together, and then the Bull Demon King summoned a gust of wind to sweep all the monsters away, and he didn't look at the Monkey King from beginning to end, and he didn't look at anyone in his eyes.
Until the Bull Demon King left, the Monkey King went into the cave to find Tang Seng and others, as for whether the Bull Demon King would hurt Tang Seng, the Monkey King was not worried at all, the Bull Demon King was not a fool, now Tang Seng is the fragrant bait of Buddhism, if something happens, I am afraid that if there is an accident, I am afraid that if you come, you will come to talk to him in person.
The Monkey King soon found it in the cave, Tang Seng, Sha Seng, Bajie, and Wang Huawang's father and son, untied their ropes, everyone came out, and the Monkey King set a fire to burn the demon cave. The Monkey King, Bajie thought that the three monks cast a spell together, and held up the Tang Seng and the father and son of the King of Yuhua, and returned to Yuhuazhou after a while.
When Princess Nayuhua learned that everyone had returned, she hurriedly led the officials in the city to greet her, and the husband and wife were overjoyed to see each other. And when they returned, they were tired, and went into the city to rest. The next day, King Yuhua set up a banquet for Tang Seng and his party, King Yuhua was very excited, after all, the monster in the Hukou Cave of Leopard Mountain has always been his heart disease, and there is a monster living next to him who can take his life at any time, even if the yellow lion spirit has no bad intentions, it is also unstable to sleep, and now the monster is gone, and he has gone to this big trouble, so he naturally has to celebrate.
The next day, Tang Seng planned to go west on the road and continue to learn from the great cause, but the King of Yuhua in order to express his gratitude, kept it again and again, and lived for a few days, then went on the road, King Yuhua sent gold and silver property, but for Tang Seng it was just something outside the body, not taken at all, only the Monkey King and Bajie secretly kept some from Tang Seng in case of emergency.
The group of four left Yuhua Prefecture and traveled west for five or six days, and then encountered a city, and inquired, but it was Jinping Mansion, a foreign county of Tianzhu, which was only two thousand miles away from their destination Xitian Da Lei Yin Temple, which meant that they were going to obtain the true scriptures and return to the Tang Dynasty.
Tang Seng and his entourage entered Jinping Mansion, some inquiry, and finally spent the night in a temple called Ciyun Temple, learned from the mouth of the monks in the temple, after two days is the Shangyuan Festival, Tang Seng only then remembered that since he learned the scriptures, he slept on the wind and ate along the way, and forgot about these festivals, so he wanted to wait for the Shangyuan Festival and then go on the road, anyway, this place is not far from the West Heaven Da Lei Yin Temple.
Rest for a night, the second day, Tang monks and apprentices play in the city for a day, turn the day is the Shangyuan Festival, in the evening, several monks in Ciyun Temple lead Tang monks into the city, watch the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, only to see the city everywhere lanterns are colorful, the drums are noisy, the sheng songs are continuous, so lively.
When Tang Seng passed a golden bridge, he saw that there were three golden lamps on the bridge, which were unusually bright, but the golden lamp was filled with three large vats to hold lamp oil, and the smell was fragrant.
Tang Seng asked the monk who was leading the way: "I don't know what kind of oil this contains? Why is it so fragrant?"
The monk who led the way replied: "This oil is called crisp sesame oil, this oil is worth two taels of silver for every tael, and each catty is worth thirty-two taels of silver, and each cylinder of the three lamps costs 500 catties, a total of 1,500 catties, a total of 48,000 taels of silver, and there are some miscellaneous uses, there will be more than 50,000 taels, so we can know the preciousness of this crisp sesame oil, which is used to worship the Buddha to express his heart." ”
The Monkey King asked, "Why do you need so much lamp oil, can you light it all?"
The leading monk said: "Don't waste it, just order it tonight, see the Buddha appear, and the oil will be gone tomorrow night." ”
Bajie said with a smile: "After the Buddha of so many lamp oils appeared, it was gone, presumably the Buddha took all the oil." ”
Bajie was just a joke, but I didn't expect the monk to say seriously: "That's what I said, people in the city, since ancient times are such legends, the oil is dry, it is said that the Buddha received the lamp, and the natural grains are abundant, if there is no dry year, the whole year will become a drought and the wind and rain will be unadjusted, so everyone wants this offering." ”
The Monkey King pouted secretly when he heard this, and said in his heart: I never knew that there was a Buddha who liked sesame oil in Buddhism, but I was afraid that there were monsters who were secretly making trouble, but this was their custom, and the Monkey King didn't want to worry about it, just as a joke.
It's a pity that the Monkey King doesn't want to be nosy, but the trouble will take the initiative to find him, at this moment, suddenly a gust of wind blew, and suddenly the sky was dark, and the oil lamp suddenly appeared three big Buddha phantoms, the Monkey King looked at it with golden eyes, but it was the three monsters that were conjured up, and the Monkey King saw through the real body of the monsters, but found that it was three rhinoceros spirits.
Although the Monkey King knew that the three were monsters, most of them were ordinary people with the naked eye, who did not know the truth, and when they saw the flashes of Buddha's light, they thought that the Buddha had come, and shouted the Buddha's blessing and knelt down.
Looking at the fooled people, the Monkey King sneered and watched the play on the side, but he didn't expect that at this time, Tang Seng actually took the initiative to come forward and wanted to meet the Buddha.
The Monkey King was in a hurry, and he wanted to pull Tang Seng back, but he didn't want the crowd to be too crowded and blocked by pedestrians, and Wang Shuai had a skill, but he didn't dare to use it on these mortals, otherwise it would hurt their lives, but it would be troublesome.
Just when the Monkey King was stopped, Tang Seng was already close to the golden lamp. The three monsters rolled up a gust of wind and swept up the vat containing sesame oil and Tang Seng and took it away.
The Monkey King didn't care about shocking the world, jumped into the air and chased after the somersault cloud, and soon came to a high mountain, and the monster was gone.
The Monkey King thought for a moment, recited a spell in his mouth, summoned the land, and asked, "What kind of place is this?"
The land hurriedly replied: "Hui Yu Great Sage, this mountain is called Qinglong Mountain, there is a cave named Xuanying Cave on the mountain, there are three goblins in the cave, the big one is called the King of Bihan, the second is the King of the Summer, and the third is the King of the Dust, this goblin has been here for a thousand years, they love to eat crisp sesame oil, become the essence here, pretend to be a Buddha statue every year, coax the people of Jinping Mansion to set up a golden lamp, the lamp oil is made of crisp sesame oil, and they become a Buddha statue to collect oil. ”
"Lead the way, I'm going to meet those three youkai. The Monkey King gave an order, the land did not dare to refuse, and led the Monkey King to a stone cliff by the stream, and the stone house under the cliff had two stone doors, half-open and half-hidden. There is a stone tablet standing next to the door, and there are six characters on it - Xuanying Cave of Qinglong Mountain.
"You can go!" The Monkey King waved his hand to the land, and the land quickly turned into a cloud of green smoke and went to the ground, he didn't dare to face the three monsters, in case the Monkey King couldn't subdue the monsters, and the three monsters were the way he led the Monkey King, take him out, he can't afford a small land.
The Monkey King also understood the difficulties of the land, and did not blame him, but waited for a while, and after the land was far away, he came to the door of Xuanying Cave, took out the golden hoop stick and put a pillar on the ground, and shouted: "The goblins inside listen, quickly send my master out, otherwise break your cave door, overturn your nest, and destroy your cave old and young!"
