Chapter Seventy-Seven: Inspiration Catches Tang Seng
Sun Wukong led the horse in front, and everyone accompanied him all the way, and walked out of a few miles under the moonlight, and sure enough, he saw a cluster of houses under the light. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 After walking into this village, I saw a family at the entrance of the village, with a banner erected at the door, and the lights inside the door were brilliant and the cigarette smoke was filled. Tang Seng handed over the horse to Sha Seng and led him, and he stepped forward to ask for help, wanting to spend the night and find a ferry to cross the river tomorrow morning.
Tang Seng recited the scriptures at the door for a while, and after a while, he saw an old man walk out. Tang Seng hurriedly clasped his palms together and asked, and introduced himself as a monk who learned scriptures from the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, explaining the intention, the old man hurriedly said: "Please!" Sun Wukong and they heard "please", so they all arched into the door with Tang Seng, scared a room of chickens and dogs. Tang Seng hurriedly comforted everyone, saying that these were his apprentices.
The old man hurriedly invited everyone into the back room. There happened to be a group of monks eating in the back room, and after seeing Tang Seng's three apprentices, they were so frightened that they ran around the house and just gave up the dining table. The old man was a warm-hearted person, and hurriedly arranged for everyone to eat, Bajie was very happy, saying that he had a large amount of food and wanted twenty to serve. The old man didn't believe it at first, but before Tang Seng finished reciting the Sutra of Qi Zhai, the old pig ate more than ten bowls of belly.
"Add rice, add rice!" Tang Seng and the others watched Zhu Bajie keep yelling, and they all wanted to burrow their heads under the table. Gao Lan was silently picking up the food on the side, simply pretending not to know, anyway, she had already pretended many times. It wasn't until after eating that Tang Seng remembered that there were still many monks in the house, and hurriedly asked the old man what was going on? The old man sighed sadly and said that this was a pre-cultivation of the dead fast.
Bajie smiled and said, "There are no dead people in your family, what kind of dead fasting are you cultivating?" The old man couldn't help crying, and told the matter of the Tongtian River Inspiration King. It turned out that today's New Year's sacrifice was coming again, and Chen Qing, the two old men in this family, and Chen Cheng was responsible for the sacrifice. It's just that Chen Qing has a son in his old age, and Chen Cheng has a daughter in his old age, how can he be reluctant, when it comes to sadness, he can't help crying loudly.
When Tang Seng heard this, he was angry and afraid, and said, "Why does this monster want to eat young children?" Gao Lan sneered: "The master doesn't know, this is called taking sacrifices, and it is a school of exercises in the Demon Dao to achieve the acquired saints." This old monster has eaten a lot of boys and girls here, and I am afraid that it is difficult to deal with it because of its supernatural powers. Sun Wukong was furious and said: "I don't care what kind of acquired saint it is, this kind of demon, I don't want to keep it." ”
As he spoke, he said to Chen Qing: "Take your son out and take a look." When Chen Qing heard this, he hurried into the inner room and hugged his son Chen Guanbao out, and couldn't help but shed tears again. But the boy didn't know what was going on, so he just jumped and asked for the fruit to eat. Wukong silently chanted a mantra and shouted: "Change!" Immediately turned into a child exactly like Chen Guanbao, holding hands and dancing in front of the lamp.
Chen Qing was shocked and shouted: "Guan Bao!" The two children agreed at the same time, and even Chen Qing couldn't tell the difference. Chen Qing was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said: "Please show your true appearance, don't break my blessing and longevity!" Wukong wiped his face and showed his original form, and said: "Old donor, how about I sacrifice for Guan Bao and leave you a queen seedling?" Chen Qing heard this, and quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowing.
Sun Wukong hurriedly helped the old man up, but Chen Cheng over there leaned against the door and cried again. Of course, Wukong knew his thoughts, and only said to him: "I think you can't give up your daughter." But don't worry, the old man, why don't you steam five buckets of rice again, and feed the elder with a long mouth and big ears, and ask him to sacrifice instead of your daughter?"
"Brother, you have to show your ability, don't climb on me! I won't change things!" But before Bajie finished shouting, Chen Cheng knelt down from outside the door and slipped to his feet and hugged the old pig's thigh. This action, Gao Lan's eyelids jumped: "Really, fake?" At the moment of life and death, the instinct of hugging the thighs can burst out of the power of the supernatural realm.
That's the potential.
Tang Seng saw it and said to Bajie: "Bajie, there is a way to save people's lives, and it is better to build a seventh-level floating slaughter." Since you have eaten other people's food, you have to repay it, so let's go with your senior brother to subdue the demon. After Tang Seng finished speaking, Sun Wukong had already clenched his fists, sighed a few times, and made a move to flatten people. Bajie had no choice but to say: "Master and senior brother have said so, then I'll go." ”
Chen Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly went into the back room and took out a little daughter and kowtowed to Bajie. When Bajie saw the girl's appearance, he also pinched the formula and drank "change", and as a result, she became a little girl as fat as a pig, which made Chen Guanbao and Yiliang Jin laugh.
Chen Cheng looked at this fat girl, and his face was full of tears. Sun Wukong walked to Zhu Bajie's side with a black face, and pressed his fist crackling for a while: "Idiot, if you don't change well, my grandson will use 'Return Me Drifting Fist' to help you." Bajie shuddered, and hurriedly drank "change" again, and sure enough, it became a scale of gold. When Sha Seng saw it, he couldn't help but admire: "The second senior brother has become like!"
Bajie looked depressed.
But now he's a weight of gold, and he's very kawaii when he's depressed.
At that moment, the people of Chenjiazhuang hid the real Chen Guanbao and a scale of gold, and asked Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie to go and sacrifice. Gao Lan stayed with Sha Seng to protect Tang Seng, but she knew that Sun Wukong and Lao Zhu would also have a hard time getting this inspiration king. This old fish's own cultivation will not be under that grudge, and now he has begun to practice the exercises of the Demon Dao, eating the sacrifices of boys and girls, I am afraid that he also has immeasurable magical powers.
If it is on the ground, Gao Lan can still help a lot, but if she is in the water, she does not have a water avoidance charm now, and it is enough to deal with prison grievances, let alone this inspiration king. Besides, Guanyin's bureau, Prince Moang, they also saw a little way, and they all went back to the Xihai Dragon Palace early, not to wade into this troubled water. Gao Lan didn't want to be in the limelight and cost her own life.
Sure enough, in the middle of the night, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie came back, and the old pig triumphantly said that he had raked the two fish scales of the King of Inspiration. Tang Seng immediately praised the eight precepts, and the people of Chenjiazhuang also gathered around to thank everyone. However, in the second half of the night, the weather seemed to change from late autumn to early winter overnight, and the snow fell overwhelmingly, and the 800-mile Tongtian River was frozen.
Early the next morning, Tang Seng was so happy: "Apprentices, look! The river is frozen, you can cross the river!" Gao Lan couldn't help but remind: "Lao Chen, I'm afraid this is a method made by monsters." It's only been a few months now, it's so cold?" Sun Wukong also felt a little ridiculous, and said: "Senior sister said very well, everyone should be careful." The inspiration king has great powers, which left a deep impression on Sun Wukong.
Tang Seng listened to it and said disdainfully: "You two, say something that has no positive energy! I want to go east out of Chang'an, all the way to the west, in order to worship the Buddha and seek the true scriptures, like you are so suspicious, you are hindered, procrastinating, when will you be able to reach the West Heaven?" Tang Seng became more and more proud, and simply took Gao Lan and Sun Wukong as negative teaching materials. He hadn't been scratched by a youkai for more than a year, and his skin began to itch again.
Gao Lan pursed her lips and said, "Then you can please." ”
Sure enough, the group bid farewell to the villagers in Chenjiazhuang and set foot on the Tongtian River. As a result, when they arrived at the center of the river, the ice suddenly melted! Gao Lan and Sun Wukong were prepared and flew up on the clouds, but Tang Seng, Bajie and Sha Seng, along with the white dragon horse, all fell into the water. However, except for Tang Seng, everyone else was good in water, and the two of them swam back to the riverbank; Sha Seng couldn't help but shout when he saw Sun Wukong:
"Senior brother, Master has been captured by a monster!"
Sun Wukong glanced at Gao Lan, and couldn't help but hold his head and smirked: "Hahahaha, I knew it was like this! This old monk has been idle for a long time and has made mistakes, and there should be this calamity on the way west. You'd better find a way to save him. Sun Wukong let go of his hand, "I won't fight a water war!"
Gao Lan smiled and pointed at the old pig, "Isn't there one here?" The old pig listened, and was about to speak, but Sha Seng patted him on the shoulder: "Second senior brother, the little junior sister is right!" Bajie was furious: "Yes to your sister!" Sun Wukong sighed and said, "In this way, the senior sister will lead the horse and luggage back to Chenjiazhuang first." Bajie, I'll become a little worm and drill your ears, let's go down to Tongtianhe to investigate!"
Monkey King attaches great importance to the King of Inspiration. Although this old fish is not as powerful as Lao Sun, he is also a golden immortal Daluo, and he fights with Lao Zhu and Lao Sha, and there is a chance that he will suffer a big loss. Gao Lan looked at the senior brothers who jumped into the Tongtian River, and the white dragon horse beside her finally couldn't help but open his mouth to her: "Little junior sister, don't you go down to help together?" Gao Lan glanced at him, "Then why don't you go?"
"I think I should go to Guanyin Bodhisattva. The little white dragon smiled. Gao Lan also laughed together: "Each other, each other." ”
In this way, Gao Lan led the horse and luggage back to Chenjiazhuang. She said that the brothers had gone to get rid of the demons together, and she was going to stay here for a few days, and then she took a lot of silver out. Where are Chen Cheng and Chen Qing willing to accept it, only Gao Lan lives at home, and Bai Malone is also taken care of very well with good food and tea. Gao Lan also happened to cultivate well and impact the barrier of immortal qi.
She has been at the peak of mana for a long time, and she has comprehended it quite thoroughly, if she had changed to other immortal cultivators, she should have broken through in one fell swoop. But Gao Lan has been stuck in this realm for a long time, and she has not made progress, the main reason is because the exercises she cultivates are too profound, and it seems to involve the deepest meaning of Buddha and Tao. If he can break through, Gao Lan's strength can really reach the top.
It was completely different from the current half-hung Jin Immortal, and he couldn't even deal with the Grudge and Inspiration King.
"Patriarch Xianyuan once said that Confucianism and Taoism avoid the three calamities and nine tribulations, and Buddhism crosses the three calamities and nine tribulations, what is the difference between this, and what kind of connection is there?" After cultivating for I don't know how many weeks, Gao Lan reopened her eyes, and now she has finally come into contact with this barrier, and she has really come into contact with it! But the answer is still a little vague, so she doesn't know. At this moment, the people of Chenjiazhuang outside suddenly exclaimed:
"The youkai have landed!"
