Chapter 605: Tang Seng's Family Affairs
The next day, Tang Seng led three apprentices to the west, and soon came to the Tianzhu King City, all the way to inquire about the Tongwen Hall where the Tianzhu Kingdom received foreign guests.
After a conversation, I learned that Tang Seng traveled thousands of miles to get the true scriptures, and he also admired it, and prepared a meal to entertain Tang Seng and his party. During the banquet, the post officer asked, "Dare to ask the holy monk, I wonder how many years you have been away from your hometown?"
For this little thing, Tang Seng naturally would not hide it, and replied: "I left the Tang Dynasty in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, and now it has been twenty-seven years since Zhenguan, and fourteen years have passed unconsciously. ”
Hearing the silence in Tang Sengzhong's tone, the post officer was also silent, and after a while, he said: "The holy monk has worked hard." ”
Tang Seng came back to his senses and chuckled: "It's not hard, it is the wish of the poor monk to seek the true scriptures and transform the world, and it is worth it no matter how much you pay." I wonder if Your Majesty has any leisure? The poor monk is about to pay a visit, and I implore Your Majesty to exchange the customs clearance documents for us, and I will continue to travel west. ”
The post officer said to Tang Seng: "Holy monk, don't worry, today is the day of my Tianzhu country's great joy, my country's princess throws hydrangea and chooses a horse, it is very lively, the holy monk may wish to stay for a day, go to the street for a tour, feel the exotic customs, it is also a good thing." ”
Without waiting for Tang Seng to refuse, the Monkey King got up directly and said: "I didn't expect us to come so coincidentally, so prosperous, how could we miss it, master! ”
Tang Seng was pulled up by the Monkey King, and in desperation, he had to confess to the post officer, and then followed the Monkey King is out, Bajie, and Sha Seng followed.
Outside the hall, Tang Seng complained: "Why are you monkeys so unreasonable to me, what kind of fun are we monks having together." ”
The Monkey King didn't defend Tang Seng's complaints, but just asked: "Master, have you forgotten that you promised the old master in Bujin Temple to find out the truth about Princess Tianzhu, and now that the princess is recruiting relatives, isn't it just an opportunity now?"
Tang Seng suddenly felt that the Monkey King was reasonable, and immediately went out with the Monkey King, and crossed a few streets, but saw that the main road was crowded with people, so it was not lively.
The Monkey King led Tang Seng to walk forward with the flow of people, Bajie, Sha Seng left in the right support, passing by the outer window of the palace, the Monkey King looked up, only to see that there was an attic on the city wall, and the princess of the upstairs window guard was standing there looking down.
The Monkey King opened his eyes to see, and the princess's appearance was exactly the same as the woman in the Bujin Temple, and he guessed in his heart that this was a monster, but when the Monkey King wanted to see what kind of monster the princess was, he ran into trouble, because the princess actually had a layer of spiritual light outside her body, so that the Monkey King could not see clearly, and the view was not clear.
This scared the Monkey King, and there were very few monsters encountered on the way to the west that could not see through their fiery eyes, either they were guarded by supernatural powers, or they had spiritual treasures that had been harmed, such as the golden light of the sun of the thousand-eyed centipede, the diamond bracelet of the green bull, etc., no matter which one should not be underestimated. However, judging from the situation of this monster, the possibility of Lingbao is relatively large.
"Since it's a spiritual treasure, then ......" The Monkey King turned his head to look at Bajie, with a wicked smile on his face, and secretly transmitted a message to Bajie: "Idiot, your good thing is coming, that princess is a big princess, with a strange treasure, if you swallow that treasure, you will definitely be able to make your King Kong invincible body progress again, work hard, Sao Nian!"
Bajie was suddenly excited by the words of the Monkey King, and the eyes that looked at the princess upstairs couldn't help but become eager, although he knew that the Monkey King was hiding something from him, and wanted him to be a bird, but he couldn't extinguish the fire in his heart at all.
The princess seemed to have a sense in her heart, and looked up at Bajie, Bajie couldn't help but feel her heart jumping, "Can she sense my gaze." "But then I felt that it was impossible, it should have been just a coincidence just now, how could a monster be able to sense your own strength beyond that of an ordinary quasi-saint.
The four Tang monks were crowded by the crowd and walked forward, and when they passed the attic where the princess was, the princess grabbed the hydrangea and threw it down, and smashed it on the head of the Tang monk.
When the people nearby looked at the person who was hit by the leave, they suddenly exclaimed, "Hit a monk! Hit a monk!" and then bent down to grab the hydrangea, in their minds, the princess must have been crooked just now, accidentally hit the monk, and now whoever grabs the hydrangea is a colt.
When the Monkey King saw the crowd of people coming from all directions, he shook his body, turned into dozens of feet high, opened his mouth and let out an angry roar, scaring everyone away, and then he recovered his body.
Soon, the guards who had been guarding the princess came over, saluted Tang Seng, and said: "Meet your nobles, you have been chosen by the princess of our country, that is, you are attached to the horse, please follow me into the palace to see His Majesty the King." ”
Tang Seng was flustered by this sudden change, and said to the Monkey King: "You monkey, why did you play so tricks on me, let this hydrangea fall on me, how should this matter end." ”
The Monkey King smiled: "Master, the so-called marriage of thousands of miles is a thread, this is the master's creation, you just go." The Monkey King said this, but secretly transmitted the voice to Tang Seng: Master don't worry, I have already seen it, although I don't know if the princess is a monster, but it is by no means an extraordinary person, it must be someone else's fake princess, the real princess is still in the Bujin Temple, you just need to talk to her and the snake's tail, Lao Sun has his own way.
Tang Seng heard what the Monkey King said, and looked at the sergeants around him, so he had no choice but to follow what the Monkey King said, and go upstairs to see the princess first.
However, it was said that the king of Tianzhu Kingdom heard that the princess threw hydrangeas and chose a monk, and he was a little dissatisfied, but he still decided to meet first, and ordered to summon Tang Seng and the princess.
Soon Tang Seng and the princess entered the palace to meet each other. Guoyu saw that Tang Seng was dignified and extraordinary, and the unhappiness in his heart also dissipated a lot, so he asked, "Where are you a monk?"
Tang Seng saluted with both hands, and replied: "Your Majesty, the poor monk is a monk from the east, and he went to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures on the order of the Tang Emperor. ”
The king's face changed, and he said angrily: "Okay, you are not a monk who is promoted, my princess Tianxiang Kingdom, and I recruited you as an attachment horse with the wealth of a country, can I still lose you? You actually insulted me Tianzhu so much!"
The king turned to the princess again and asked, "What do you think, Son, Son?"
The princess bowed and said: "Enlighten the father, the daughter has made a vow, throw the hydrangea and choose the horse, no matter who is willing to marry him as a wife, as the so-called marry the chicken with the chicken, marry the dog with the dog, and hope that the father will be fulfilled." ”
Seeing his daughter say this, the king said to Tang Seng: "You monk can hear clearly, quickly return to the world, and marry the princess tomorrow." ”
Tang Seng insisted on refusing, and only begged the king to let him go west. This finally made the king angry, and said with a murderous face: "You monk who doesn't know what to do, I will directly order someone to behead you to show the public, so as to restore the princess's innocence." ”
Tang Seng looked panicked, and when it came to this, how could Tang Seng object, so he could only delay the army, delay time, and said: "The poor monk is willing to marry the princess, but I still have three apprentices waiting outside the palace, and please invite them to come, let our master and apprentice get together, and exchange the customs clearance documents for them, and let them go west."
The king naturally didn't care about this little thing, and ordered the three apprentices of Tang Seng to see him, but the king was taken aback by the appearance of the three monkey kings, and didn't dare to talk to them more.
Tang Seng and the four apprentices came to the inner palace under the leadership of the servant, and prepared food for them, Bajie could see the deliciousness, and there was a lot of food and drink, but Tang Seng complained about the monkey king, "It's all your ploy to splash the monkey, and now I'm trapped here, but how to get out?"
The Monkey King laughed and said: "Master, I think it's a good thing to keep you, in the future, after a hundred years of the king of Tianzhu Kingdom, this throne will be yours, so why don't you call your master out and let us have a visit." ”
Tang Seng listened to the monkey king's teasing, and immediately became angry, and shouted: "You splash monkey, Hugh has to talk nonsense, seeking the true scriptures, and it is my life's wish to transform the world, how can you be greedy for glory and wealth, if you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for reciting the mantra unkindly." ”
"Mo Nian, Mo Nian!" Although the Monkey King has already broken the spell, but now is the last moment, seeing that it is the west sky, his greatest wish is to fight with Ru again, and he is about to reach his destination, how can he let the embankment of thousands of miles collapse in the anthill.
"Master rest assured, tomorrow is the day when the princess and you will be married, and when the time comes, I will secretly follow you and expose the identity of the fake princess, and the king will naturally not blame you at that time. ”
Under the repeated assurances of the Monkey King, Tang Seng put his mind at ease, talked for a while, and then rested. 9.
