Chapter 53: The Dragon Catfish Mountains
Sun Wumao took a step forward and said:
"Elder Tang, Wu Mao thinks that if the thousand-year-old dragon catfish is really one of the entrances to this world, and I haven't seen the master here, then the only possibility is that they were not swallowed by the dragon catfish!"
"Not swallowed?" After hearing this, Tang Sanzang shook his head again and again, sullenly, and sighed: "Alas! A teacher for one day and a father for life, these unfilial apprentices actually disregard the life and death of their teachers like this! Tell me, tell me, what kind of apprentices did the Buddha and his old man arrange for the poor monks? A monkey who only knows how to confront the poor monk all day long, a pig who only knows how to fight the poor monk all day long, and a natural fool who can't count on anything! Tell me about it, do you have a reliable one, you can tell me!"
Seeing Tang Sanzang complaining about his master like this, Sun Wumao felt uneasy for them in his heart, and replied: "Why did Elder Tang come to conclusions so early, maybe, your three disciples are fighting with that thousand-year-old dragon catfish in the outside world!"
"Amitabha, let's fight, let's fight, anyway, the poor monk is already dead on his tenth trip to the east this time! It is inevitable to be reincarnated, and it is inevitable to run the eleventh trip again!" Tang Sanzang raised his head and sighed, "Next time, the poor monk will definitely beg the Buddha to change me for some reliable disciples! At least, he should be handsome!"
When Tang Sanzang said this, a flash of inspiration seemed to flash in his mind, he turned his head, looked at the Monkey Cat and the Pig Eight Dog behind him with a smile, and said, "Are Sun Protectors and Pig Protectors willing to condescend to be poor monks' apprentices in the next life?"
Sun Wu Cat and Zhu Bagou were stunned when they heard this, this was too unexpected, they looked at each other, and said in unison: "Elder Tang can't help this! We are not qualified to take care of the Buddha's house with a cat and a dog, where does we get the blessing to be Elder Tang's apprentices!
"Oh, hahaha! Why should the two Dharma protectors be humble, rest assured, this matter has been written down for the time being, and the poor monk will definitely make a statement to the Buddha!" Tang Sanzang paced, walked backwards with the rattling nine-ring tin staff, raised his head and pondered, and said to himself: "Where did my three disciples go?"
This is also too domineering, Tang Sanzang outside the mirror is not like this! Sun Wumao was full of helplessness, so he had to pretend to appreciate it and said: "Then thank Elder Tang for your love! I and Zhu Bagou are really not that blessed! Hey, Elder Tang, I took a boat on this river today, and when I looked into the water, I happened to find a black fish tail, which was huge! The fish tail swept away, and lifted up the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river, but unfortunately it swam too fast, and disappeared before I saw the body, I don't know, Elder Tang has an impression of this fish?"
"Oh?" Tang Sanzang stopped, quite interested in this matter, and said, "The black fishtail is still huge, and I have no impression at all! The poor monk hasn't been out for a while, and he doesn't know when it came!"
"Elder Tang, do you think it's possible that it is the thousand-year-old dragon catfish? I have never seen it, and I don't know what it should look like. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Oh ha, Sun Protector must have been too worried, how could the thousand-year-old dragon catfish also come to this world? If he came, wouldn't it be ......?"
Tang Seng was stunned when he said this, he stared at his eyes in shock, and the more he stared, he looked at the nine-ring tin staff on the ground and "banged" on the ground, raised his other hand trembling slightly and shouted: "Shrimp soldiers and crab generals!
"In!"
"Hurry up, open the door, open the door quickly!"
"Yes!"
One of the shrimp soldiers took the order, bowed one after another, and with a single bullet swam under the red gate, which opened upward with a roar, bursting with clusters of bubbles.
Tang Sanzang hurriedly ran backwards towards the door, shouting at Sun Wumao and Pig Eight Dogs: "Two Dharma protectors! Hurry up and get out of the mountain with the poor monk!"
Sun Wumao and Zhu Bagou were made to stand on end by Tang Sanzang's sudden and inexplicable move, and they were puzzled, but they felt that the situation was not good, and they didn't have time to ask too much, so they chased Tang Sanzang and ran out, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals also followed, for fear that Tang Sanzang would take the opportunity to escape.
Running out of the cave, Tang Sanzang continued to trot backwards all the way, leaving Sun Wu Cat and Zhu Bagou behind, and then behind him was a group of shrimp soldiers who were marching and crab generals who were running sideways.
After running a long way, those shrimp soldiers were pulled in a row, and it seemed that they had stretched out the invisible net, and they were about to rush forward to trap him, but Tang Sanzang stopped.
He stared at the mountain range that had been left far behind him, stared at a pair of big eyes of astonishment, and couldn't help but say:
"Oh, yes, oh, the poor monk is a mother! This is a situation of a god horse?
Sun Wu Cat and Zhu Bagou also followed, turned around and followed Tang Sanzang's line of sight, but did not find anything surprising about that mountain range. Sun Wumao was puzzled:
"Why is Elder Tang panicking?"
Tang Sanzang ignored Sun Wumao, shook his head, and his chin was long, as if he was about to fall: "Oh, the poor monk is a mother......! Where is this mountain!"
Sun Wumao looked at Tang Sanzang's exaggerated expression, and had an urge to step forward to help him catch his chin, for fear that his chin would be washed by the water and fall to the ground, he said, "What's the matter, Elder Tang, if this is not a mountain range, then what else can it be?"
"Oh, the poor monk is a mother! Sun Protector! Take a closer look! Take a closer look! What the hell is this mountain range a magic thing?"
Sun Wumao had no choice but to follow Tang Sanzang's wishes, and carefully looked at the mountain range in the distance, only to see that the mountain was like a huge dragon head with a big mouth open, the two towering peaks on the head were like two dragon horns, the hole that could accommodate more than 100 people to pass side by side was like a big grinning mouth, the four white stone pillars in the cave were like two pairs of sharp fangs, and the eight aquatic plants growing around the cave were like two groups of beards the thickness of the human body...... Observing this, fear instantly filled Sun Wumao's eyes, and he finally understood the expression on Tang Sanzang's face, and exclaimed, "Elder Tang, this, this, this, ......this, this,
"Oh, the poor monk, a mother-in-law! Where is this a mountain range? Isn't this the same behemoth that swallowed the poor monk in his belly?"
After Tang Sanzang finished speaking, he immediately turned around, holding the rattling nine-ring tin staff, and continued to trot backwards.
This time he went around to the side of the mountain range, and looked all the way down from front of him, only to see that the mountain was like a huge black fish lying under the water, with no tail in sight.
"Amitabha live! Amitabha live! fall! fall!" Tang Sanzang was obviously frightened by this scene, so much so that his mouth was full, he rubbed his tongue and continued: "The emotional poor monk just walked out of this monster's belly, and then stepped on its back, trekking through mountains and rivers to send it back to its stomach in person!"
Sun Wu Cat as a cat, he did not lose his mind because of this, the cat's eyes were not white, he did not forget to observe and analyze while he was frightened, he calmed his emotions, and said to Tang Sanzang: "Elder Tang don't need to panic, as far as I can see, this thousand-year-old dragon catfish has been dead for some years, and it has been hundreds of years in less than a thousand years, and it has long been integrated with the bottom of the river under our feet, and at this moment it is just a mountain range, and it is no longer a thousand-year-old dragon catfish!"
After Tang Sanzang heard this, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his Adam's apple rose and fell, and he said uneasily: "Dead? Is it really dead? After being dead for a thousand years, why does it still appear in the outside world? Why does it still swallow the poor monk in his stomach?"
"Well...... It stands to reason that this shouldn't be?" Sun Wumao is also extremely incomprehensible, the same identity appears in two worlds at the same time, this can't be explained at all, if it just died, it can be explained, the problem is that it seems to have been dead here for a thousand years, and it has turned into mountains for a long time, how can it run to the outside world?
After thinking about it, Sun Wumao finally clapped his hands and said: "Could it be that there are two thousand-year-old dragon catfish, one male and one female?"
Tang Sanzang was not quite convinced, glanced at him, and said, "Are you sure?"
"Uh...... I'm not too sure......"
Tang Sanzang suddenly had an idea, he seemed to have a good idea, he covered his cheeks with his arms, and said, "Buddha, the disciple thinks that this dragon catfish in front of you that has been dead for a thousand years is not the only one!"
Everyone guessed his intentions, and they all held their breath and looked at him.
For a long time, Tang Sanzang didn't see anything abnormal, so he put down the arm that was protecting his cheeks, and said with relief: "Whether it's good or not, it seems that there is indeed more than this one!"
"Smack!"
As soon as he put his arm down, he was knocked over by a loud slap, and his hat fell to the ground. He quickly got up from the ground, picked up the Pilu hat and brought it back to him, and said in a panic:
"Oh, the poor monk has a mother-in-law! Sun Protector, have you seen it? The Buddha has whipped me! It seems that the poor monk is wrong! The thousand-year-old dragon catfish is indeed the only one!"
"How is this possible? there is one in the outside world, and there is obviously one in this world!" This is really incomprehensible, Sun Wumao racked his brains to think about it, and muttered in a low voice: "Huanyingjian, purple gold red gourd, thousand-year-old dragon catfish, hiss...... Pig Eight Dogs, Elder Tang, Millennium Dragon Catfish, hiss...... It died in this world, but it was alive in the outside world, Zhu Bagou was 'alive' in this world, but died in the outside world, and Elder Tang was also 'alive' in this world, but he also died in the outside world......"
"Oops!" Thinking of this, Sun Wu Mao suddenly opened, he slapped his head, and exclaimed: "Wrong, wrong!
"What's wrong, Sun Protector?
"Wrong! Mirrors, gourds, and dragon catfish are not the entrances to this world! Here, it is indeed only the world in the mirror, and there is only one entrance to this world!"
"Only one? where?"
"That's it—dead !!"
