Sanzang said, "Wukong, remember when I told you that I wanted to take revenge myself?"

"Remember!"

"I told you, I had an idea to get revenge, do you remember?"

"Remember!"

"Then don't you want to know what my idea is?"

"If the master is willing to speak, the disciple is willing to listen; if the master doesn't say, the disciple doesn't ask!"

Sanzang was satisfied with the monkey's answer. The monkey was subdued by him!

He smiled and said, "I'm actually going to learn the supernatural powers of Taoism from you. ”

"Master, do you want me to teach you my skills?"

"Exactly. The Tao preaches Buddha's enlightenment. Taoist supernatural powers, true transmission of a sentence, false transmission of thousands of books. It is not the same way that the disciples of Buddhism practice by reading the same scriptures and relying entirely on their own understanding. ”

The true transmission of Taoism, as long as the master says a word, he can pass on the real supernatural power to the disciples. Even if you read 10,000 volumes of scriptures, the comprehension you get is not as good as Master's true word. Not so with Buddhism!

Taoist disciples learn the arts, and there are many successful ones; Buddhist disciples practice, and there are few successful ones, and they completely rely on themselves to comprehend Buddhism from the scriptures, and once they succeed in practice, they can easily crush the Taoist practitioners of the same level. Taoist disciples know what they can do, and Buddhist disciples not only know what they can do, but they also know why they do it.

"Master, when I was studying art, I promised my ancestor that I should not tell anyone anything about my art, even if I caused a great disaster, I was not allowed to say his name. ”

"What if you break your vows?"

"If I break my vows, my patriarch will find me, crush my bones and scatter ashes, and relegate me to the Nine Shadows, where I will suffer forever and will not be able to be reborn. ”

Sanzang's heart moved, a master, said this to the disciples he had worked hard to cultivate, it can be seen that he is not a good person. Moreover, once an accident occurs to an apprentice, the master not only does not help, but quickly dissociates himself from any relationship with the apprentice and threatens the disciple to bear the trouble at his own expense, and not to implicate himself.

A very selfish and ruthless Master!

If not, then this master taught Wukong skills, and there is another big secret.

"Wukong, I have a word, say it, don't be angry. ”

"Master, you say. ”

"If you are calm and not angry, I will say. ”

"Master, I swear I'm not angry. ”

"Wukong, the master who taught you Taoist supernatural powers may not be a good person. ”

The ant really calmed down, but it was obvious that he was very unhappy, and the two front legs kept fighting with each other.

"Wukong, did your master only teach you mana and supernatural powers? But didn't teach you etiquette communication, human sophistication, and Taoist mind cultivation?"

"Yes, how did Master calculate it?"

Sanzang didn't answer, and said lightly: "Wukong, your master taught you the magic power of martial arts equipment, but why didn't he teach you a Taoist weapon that fits? ”

The monkey said angrily: "Master, my master is by no means a scheming and despicable person with your speculation. ”。

"Wukong, a really good master, preach and teach to solve doubts, but your master, only teach, not preach, let alone solve doubts, after you finish your studies, you go down the mountain and return to Huaguo Mountain, your master, as long as you swear a poisonous oath, don't say his name if you cause trouble, this has already shown that he has long known that you will cause trouble, your life and death, as long as he does not implicate himself, he is actually indifferent. ”

The little ant was silent for a moment.

"Wukong, the prohibition in your body, the greatest possibility, was quietly planted by your master when he taught you the Dao Heng Divine Power. ”

"No way!" the little ant raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth.

"I also hope my inference is wrong. Sanzang sighed and waved his hand, "Wukong, you go." It's almost dawn, and the gold-headed Jiedi and the silver-headed Jiedi went to Guanyin to tell you about the evil incident between you and me, calculate the time, and it is time to come back. ”

The little ant was silent for a long time, and finally said slowly: "Master, you are so wise and invincible, can you come up with a perfect solution?"

"What's the best solution?"

"I can pass on the Taoist supernatural powers I have learned to my master without breaking the oath I made in front of the Taoist patriarch, and this is a foolproof strategy. ”

Sanzang smiled and said: "Monkey, it's rare that you have a sincere heart, this is a way to get the best of both worlds, I have it, but now it's too late, you make some movement on the way to the east, so that the Bodhisattva can find you and persuade you to come back, at that time we will go on the road together to the west to learn scriptures, and I will tell you the best of both worlds." ”

The little ant said: "Master is really wise, and the old grandson will go." ”

As soon as the words fell, the little ant disappeared into the palm of Sanzang's hand out of thin air.

Wukong went by himself, and Sanzang did not rest, meditating cross-legged, chanting sutras and participating in Zen, refusing to waste a little time until dawn. In the good hours of the early morning, I practiced the fingers of the Phaseless Tribulation more than a dozen times, and the fingering moves became more proficient; It is mixed with some changes in yesterday's monkey stick method, and when I practiced it for the third time, I added the sword technique of Liuding Liujia to the staff method, and practiced it repeatedly until the sun rose, and Sanzang did not stop.

In the sky, more than 30 gods and generals all looked at Sanzang practicing martial arts on the ground with puzzled expressions, and a person who learned scriptures was not busy with hurrying, but was actually obsessed with martial arts and meditation cultivation.

I practiced martial arts and Zen to advance in this way, but I didn't hurry up, I just lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds.

The gods in the sky looked at Master Sanzang so ignorant, and everyone had a wry smile on their faces. This monk doesn't work hard to move forward, and if they are delayed on the road, they can only accompany the killing field, which is unimaginable.

After Sanzang practiced the Zen staff, the monkey fought with the gods yesterday, and he had a lot of insights into the wonders of his staff. He evidently felt that his staff had improved a lot, and he was happy at the moment, and he took out the dry cakes from his blanket, found the stream, and ate a few pieces of bread in the stream, even after breakfast. This eating bread is just a feeling of hunger on the stomach.

Sanzang has cultivated the second fruit of Buddhism, which is equivalent to the Taoist realm of Bigu, even if you don't eat anything for half a month and a month, you can also absorb nutrients from the air and moisture to nourish the whole body through meditation and meditation, and the same practice does not stop.

Sanzang ate and drank enough, and then slowly set off on the road. He chanted silently as he walked, and in addition to dry cakes and monk's clothes, there were several volumes of difficult scriptures in Hongfu Temple.

Since Sanzang was lit by the witch mirror and understood that his true appearance was the golden cicada, some things of the golden cicada Bodhisattva slowly remembered, among which there is one of the most important principles about comprehending Zen, that is, no matter how difficult the scriptures are, in fact, as long as the sincere chanting of the scriptures ten thousand times, its meaning will be self-revealed.

This principle is the same as the truth of punching a thousand times, and its righteousness is self-revealed. That is, as the saying goes, the fist does not leave the hand, and the song does not leave the mouth.

Sanzang chanted silently while walking, and before the sun was setting, there was a very old woman standing beside the mountain road in front of her, with gray hair, but she was in good spirits, with a compassionate face, holding a brocade robe and a flower hat on the brocade robe.

Sanzang saw that there was no village in front of this place and no shop behind it, and an old woman suddenly appeared, there must be something strange, and she was in her heart at the moment, and moved forward slowly, and she secretly condensed her breath without a phase.
