Chapter 221: Traveling Westward Against the Sky

Sun Wukong said: "We still want to go west?

Jin Chanzi said: "You must go west." ”

Sun Wukong said: "Step by step to the western sky?"

Jin Chanzi said: "You can only go to the western sky." ”

Sun Wukong said: "How could the gods and Buddhas let us go to the western sky." ”

Jin Chanzi said: "Going west against the sky, who dares to stop me?"

Sun Wukong said: "What good is it for us to go west against the sky?"

Jin Cicada said: "Heaven and earth don't care, gods and Buddhas are not afraid, they are at ease, and heaven and earth are roaming." ”

When Sun Wukong heard this, he smiled and said: "Old Sun is at ease, what is the use of this for me?"

Jin Chanzi said: "After dusk is night, when night comes, how can you still be free." Jin Chanzi paused and said: "If we don't go to that world, that world will come here, the order of the Three Realms will be chaotic, everything in front of us will no longer exist, where is your so-called freedom?"

Sun Wukong said: "The Three Realms are destroyed, don't the gods and Buddhas care?"

Jin Chanzi said: "They only care about themselves, why bother with the Three Realms? They don't have anyone they love, who do they love besides themselves? The world is destroyed, or the heavens and the earth are turned upside down, as long as they live, everything is still perfect." ”

Sun Wukong said: "The Buddha loves all living beings. ”

Jin Chanzi said: "All the way to the west, who did the Buddha love?"

Sun Wukong thought for a while and said, "I'll go west with you." ”

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also came up and said, "I'll go west with you." The little white dragon in the distance, who also took on the form of a human, stepped forward and said, "I'll go west with you." ”

The golden cicada is not surprised. After that night, he expected that the four apprentices would follow him westward, and said, "Even if the gods and Buddhas hinder him, they will follow me westward?"

The four of them said in unison: "God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, all the way west, who dares to stop me!"

Jin Chanzi said: "Okay, after today, the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism will definitely kill us with all their might, and we must not be careless." Not to that world. No one can die. ”

Sun Wukong snorted coldly and said, "If you want to kill Lao Sun, it's just wishful thinking." ”

Zhu Bajie said: "If I don't want to die, who can let me die?"

Sha Wujing said: "Some things have not been completed yet. So. I'm not going to die. ”

The little white dragon laughed. Said: "You are not dead, how can you let me die?"

Jin Chanzi nodded secretly and said to Mrs. Yan on the side, "Thank you." ”

Mrs. Juan smiled: "Thank you, we just want to live." ”

Zhu Bajie saw this. Hurriedly asked, "That Golden Horn and Silver Horn King look a little like Erlang God, are they really your biological sons?"

Mrs. Yan smiled and didn't answer, and Jin Chanzi hurriedly shouted: "Wu Neng, don't talk much." He turned to Mrs. Juan and said, "The little monk said goodbye, and later there will be a Taoist named Daxian looking for Mrs. Shang, and he will tell Mrs. why he did it when the time comes." ”

Mrs. Yan nodded in understanding.

Jin Chanzi said to his apprentice: "Go west against the sky and set off." ”

When the little white dragon heard this, he wanted to turn into a white dragon horse again, and Jin Chanzi said: "You don't need to pretend to be that weak Tang monk, naturally you don't need a mount, just 108,000 miles away, and you can walk for the teacher." When the little white dragon heard this, he was no longer reluctant, he was dressed in a white robe neatly and neatly, and set off together after everyone.

Mrs. Juan looked at the backs of the five masters and apprentices who were far away, and said, "What happened that night that made these four disciples with very different personalities follow Jin Chanzi with all their hearts. ”

Hu Aqi said: "I don't know, I just know that they spent a night in the Lotus Cave that night, what happened, I can't find out, the golden cicada set a very powerful ban around the Lotus Cave." ”

Mrs. Yan said: "Let's go, go back and see Nu Xiang, it's time to think of a way to save her." With that, the two disappeared on the mountain road.

Five masters and apprentices, sacrificing their lives to the west, the golden cicada Ziyue white monk's robe walked slowly, the little white dragon white robe sprinkled after, Zhu Bajie carried the luggage, the sand monk helped from the side, Sun Xingzhi took the iron rod, cut the road, and went down the mountain to advance.

I can't say that the water and the wind and food, the frost and dew, the masters and apprentices have been walking for a long time, and another mountain blocks the road in front of them.

The golden cicada shouted on that horse: "Apprentice, you see the mountains there, you must be careful to beware, I am afraid that there will be a demonic obstacle invading you." ”

Sun Wukong said: "Master, if you have anything to say, now we are five masters and apprentices, why bother to make that mystery." ”

Jin Chanzi said: "It's nothing, just sigh at the difficulty of the westbound road, I remember leaving Chang'an City, on the road spring and summer, autumn and winter solstice, there are four or five years, why can't you get it?"

When Sun Wukong heard this, he laughed and said: "Morning, morning, I haven't been out of the gate yet!"

Zhu Bajie said: "Brother, don't lie, there is such a gate in the world?"

Sun Wukong said: "Brother, we are still in the hall!"

Sha Seng said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't say big things to scare me, there is such a lobby house there, but there is nowhere to buy such a big beam." ”

Sun Wukong said: "Brother, if you look at the old grandson, take this blue sky as a roof tile, the sun and the moon as a window lattice, and the four mountains and five mountains as the beams and pillars, and the heaven and earth are like an open hall!"

Zhu Bajie heard this and said, "That's it! Let's just go back when we turn around." ”

Sun Wukong said: "Don't talk nonsense, just follow Lao Sun." ”

Jin Chanzi just saw that the road was boring, so he just talked about a topic casually, but he appreciated Sun Wukong's words.

The great sage, who took the iron rod and led the Tang monk, cut the mountain road, and kept moving forward.

The golden cicada is seen from afar, a good mountain view, it is really a mountaintop: the top of the mountain is a saga, and the treetops seem to be connected to the sky. In the pile of green smoke, I can smell the cry of the ape in the valley, and in the chaotic green shade, I can hear the crane chirping among the pines. The Howling Wind Mountain stands among the streams, teasing the woodcutters, and the adult fox sits on the cliffside, shocking the hunters. Look at the cliffs on all sides, and the perils are steep on all sides. The strange Qiao pine pan green cover, the old tree is destroyed and the vine is raised. The spring water is flowing, the cold air penetrates people's hair, and the peak is tall, and the breeze shoots the eyes and dreams are frightened. Listen to the roar of big insects, and sing every time you hear mountain birds. Muntjac deer leap back and forth in groups through thorns, and roe deer rabbits form groups in search of wild food, running back and forth. Standing on the grassy slope, there is no passenger traveler at a glance; There are jackals on all sides. It should not be the Buddha's cultivation place, it is all a bird and beast field.

Jin Chanzi said: "The scenery is not bad, let's walk, don't be too anxious." ”

Sun Wukong and others had no objections, they agreed at the moment, the masters and apprentices were playing with the mountain scenery, and when they walked, they didn't realize that the red wheel was falling westward, it was: the ten-mile long pavilion had no guests to go, and the stars appeared in the nine-fold sky. All ships from the eight rivers are in port. Seven thousand states and counties are closed. Six palaces and five mansions return to the official slaughter. The four seas and three rivers strike the fishing fiber. The bells and drums of the two buildings rang, and a bright moon was full. The golden cicada looked at it from afar, and saw that there were towers stacked in the recess of the mountain, and the palace was heavy.

Jin Chanzi said: "Apprentice." By this time it was getting late. Fortunately, there is a pavilion not far from the wall. Presumably it's an ankan temple, and we'll all go there for the night, and we'll do it again tomorrow. ”

Sun Wukong said: "Master is right. Don't be busy. Wait for me to see what happens. Then he asked, "Didn't Master see something?"

Jin Chanzi said: "But I remembered some stories from the past, if the teacher is not mistaken, it should have happened here." ”

The great sage jumped in the air, looked carefully, and sure enough, it was a mountain gate, but he saw that the eight-character brick wall was muddy and pink, and the doors on both sides were nailed with gold nails. Stacked buildings are hidden on the banks of the mountains, and the layers of palaces are hidden in the mountains. Ten thousand Buddha Pavilion to the palace, Chaoyang Building should be the main gate. Seven-story tower tun cloud Cebu, three Buddha gods are glorious. Manjushri is on the Garamsha, and the Maitreya Hall is on the Great Mercy Hall. Look at the green light dancing outside the mountain building, and the purple clouds are born on the Xuxuan Pavilion. The Songguan Bamboo Courtyard is still green, and the abbot's meditation hall is clear everywhere. Yaya is quiet and quiet, and Chuanchuan Dao welcomes him happily. There are Zen monks in the meditation place, and there are many instruments in the music room. Myoko on the platform of the epiphany, in front of the altar Bayeau. It is the land of the three treasures of the forest, and the mountain embraces the palace of the Brahman king. Half of the wall lamps are smoky, and a line of incense and mist is hazy.

Sun Dasheng pressed the cloud head and reported to the golden cicada: "Master, it is really a temple, but it is good to spend the night, let's go." ”

The golden cicada kept coming and walked outside the mountain gate.

Sun Wukong said: "Master, what kind of temple is this?"

Jin Cicada said: "My footsteps stopped, and before the toes came out of the stirrups, I asked me what temple I was, so I didn't know!"

When the little white dragon on one side heard this, he smiled but did not speak.

Sun Wukong said: "Your old man has been a monk since he was a child, and he must have spoken about Confucianism before he went to perform the scriptures, and then he was favored by the Tang King, and there were such big characters on the door, how could you not recognize it?"

Xiao Bailong and the others laughed when they heard this.

The golden cicada pretended to be angry and scolded: "I am now facing the west, and I am being shadowed by the sun, but although the door has words, it is hazy with dust, so I have not seen it." ”

When Sun Wukong heard this, he bowed his waist, grew more than two feet tall, and spread his hand to remove the dust and said, "Master, please see." There are five big characters on it, which is the Baolin Temple.

Sun Wukong accepted the Dharma Body and said, "Master, who in this temple will go in and spend the night?"

Jin Chanzi said, "I'll go in." If you have ugly faces, coarse speech, and arrogant nature, if you have a collision with the monks here, you are not allowed to stay overnight, but it is not beautiful. ”

The little white dragon heard it on the side and said, "I'll go with Master." ”

Jin Chanzi said: "I'm afraid that I won't be able to be eaten as a teacher, so I'll go by myself." ”

Sun Wukong said: "In this case, please invite Master in, there is no need to say more." ”

After the golden cicada left, Zhu Bajie said: "Master took off the disguise of the Tang monk, and he is not very likable." ”

Sun Wukong grabbed Zhu Bajie's ear and said, "You idiot, don't talk nonsense." ”

Zhu Bajie screamed in pain and said, "Senior brother spare your life, senior brother spare your life, the old pig doesn't say it." ”

But the golden cicada lost the tin staff, took off his cloak, put his clothes together, and entered the mountain gate, only to see a pair of King Kong sitting high in the red lacquered railings on both sides, pretending to be majestic and ugly: one with an iron face and steel beard seems to be alive, and the other has dry eyebrows and eyes like exquisite. The skull of the fist on the left is like pig iron, and the palm of the hand on the right is red copper. The golden armor is brilliant, and the bright helmet embroidered belt reflects the wind. The West really offers more to the Buddha, and the incense in the middle of the stone tripod is red.

Seeing this, the golden cicada nodded and sighed: "All beings in the mortal world, raise gold and silver, make great bodhisattvas such as clay fetus, burn incense and make offerings, but the gods and Buddhas do not have mercy on sentient beings, and endure to see sentient beings perish." "At the place of sighing, I went to the two-story mountain gate again, and saw that there were four heavenly kings, which were holding the country, hearing more, growing, and wide-eyed, according to the northeast and southwest winds and rain. Entering the door of the second floor, I saw four trees of pine trees, one tree was covered with green and fluffy, but it was like an umbrella, and suddenly looked up, it was the hall of the Great Hero. The elder took refuge with his palms together and bowed down. After worshipping up, turn the Buddha platform, go to the back door, and see the appearance of the inverted Guanyin Pudu South China Sea. On the wall are those shrimps, fish, crabs and turtles pretended to be made by good craftsmen, showing their heads and tails, jumping into the waves of the sea and playing tricks.

The golden cicada nodded three or five times again, sighed and said, "Pitiful! All living beings in the scale armor worship the Buddha, why don't you want to practice!" (To be continued......)
