Red Cloud: Establishing Mahayana Buddhism as a Holy Spirit

Chapter 382: The King's Son-in-Law of Baoxiang Seeks to See You?
The auspicious smoke cover, the gurgling flowing water, splashed Qiongyao.The arable fields and fields, the young seedlings of Mihui with enough food, the nine-story high pavilions are like palaces, and the towering terraces are like championships.There are also the Taiji Hall, the Huagai Hall, the Burning Incense Hall, the Guanwen Hall, the Xuanzheng Hall, the Yanying Hall, and the golden steps of Yubi in the first hall.

The four of Tang Sanzang, his master and his apprentice, walked up the hillside and looked at the bustling and prosperous country full of Western Regions in the distance, and they suddenly smiled. After walking for so many days, they finally saw a figure.

Treasure Elephant Country.

When they came outside this exotic city, the guards on duty at this time also found the four masters and apprentices, and each of them was nervous. After all, the faces of Monkey King and Zhu Bajie were a little scary.

However, before they could inquire, Tang Sanzang, who was riding a white dragon horse and wearing that brocade cassock, looked holy, and he was completely like an out-and-out image of an eminent monk. The monks who were ordered by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to go to the west to learn scriptures from the Buddha of the West, these are the disciples of the poor monks."

After some self-introduction, although they had never heard of the name of the Tang Dynasty, it sounded like an awesome existence, and the Western Tathagata Buddha even pulled the banner. In an instant, the faces of the guards were solemn, Seriously treated the foreigner.

"I'll wait to see the holy monk."

Looking at the guards saluting, Tang Sanzang nodded with a smile and said: "Amitabha, it's not that the poor monk is bothering you, it's actually the emperor of the Eastern Tang Dynasty who specially ordered the poor monk to pass the customs. Please report to the king of this city. The poor monk carries relevant documents with him, and he needs to enter the dynasty and change."

"Holy Monk, please wait a moment."

They were just ordinary soldiers, and they suddenly faced monks from other dynasties, even monks with customs clearance certificates. With a flattering color.

After a while, a group of guards with distinctive armor came and led them respectfully towards the palace.

Entering the palace, looking at the joyful scene, Tang Sanzang couldn't help asking in doubt: "May I ask what happy event is going on in this palace?"

"Reporting to the holy monk, the princess of Baoxiang Kingdom has returned with her son-in-law. Our old kingdom is preparing for the wedding."

Tang Sanzang was stunned. Although it was strange that he didn't meet this yellow-robed monster on the road, he never thought that this guy came to the old man's house. What kind of rhythm is this?
"Wukong, Bajie, and Wujing, all be careful in the future."

First there was Tianwu Zuwu in Huangfeng Cave, and another ancestor Wu Xuanming came from Baihuling. At this time, he was really scared. Looking at the sudden change of the plot, Tang Sanzang couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Master, don't worry, we must be careful."

If Sun Wukong had been in the past, he would definitely have dismissed it. After all, what kind of powerful characters can be produced in this small place, but since he started traveling west with the monk master in front of him, he found that none of the monsters he encountered could beat them, let alone beat them. No, not even a chance to make a move.

Today's Monkey King can't help but nodded solemnly after hearing this. This time, he raised twelve hearts and was full of vigilance. , so that he can move the rescuers back to save his master.

After seeing Monkey King nodding solemnly, Tang Sanzang couldn't help showing a satisfied smile, proving that he trained this monkey, no!Well done.However, if he knew the true thoughts in the monkey's heart, he would not know whether he would recite the magic spell now.

Not to mention Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, one is afraid of death, the other is honest, they both nodded.

In King Baoxiang's palace, only one person came to the white jade steps respectfully, lowered his head and reported: "Long live, the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty, has come outside the palace to ask to see him, and change the documents."

The benevolent old king smiled and nodded immediately after hearing this, "Okay, quickly invite the holy monks of the Tang Dynasty to have an audience."

Although it is a small country, it still has the necessary etiquette, and the king is obviously kind-hearted, otherwise, in the original book, his daughter disappeared for 13 years, and his eyes were full of tears when he heard the news suddenly , and even more anxious to find her daughter.

Change to a talented and generous hero, even if it hurts, he will never cry face to face like this and make this matter a storm in the city. After all, this is an existence that insults the country's prestige. Naturally suppress it. If you still have affection in your heart, then look for it secretly. If it's gone, it's as if it never happened.

When Tang Sanzang led three apprentices in, although the king of Baoxiang Kingdom had heard the report from the guards at the beginning, he couldn't help showing a look of shock when he saw the person coming.

The monkey spirit with the hairy face and thunderous mouth, the pig demon with the fat head and big ears, and the fierce and sturdy Sha Wujing, although they now have an honest smile on their faces, their figures are not deceiving.

When he saw the holy monk walking in the front, the cloudy eyes of the king of Baoxiang Kingdom suddenly lit up, and he saw Tang Sanzang wearing a brocade cassock, shining with jewels and exuding a holy aura, he immediately got up excitedly He smiled and said: "Haha, it really is a holy monk from the kingdom of heaven. Seeing you today, this king is really lucky."

"Quick, give me a seat."

The old king laughed and stroked his beard in satisfaction, as if he was full of appreciation for Tang Sanzang's appearance and attire, which is the demeanor that a Taoist monk should have.

When Tang Sanzang and his party sat down, the old king laughed politely and said: "Holy Monk, you really have supernatural powers, and you really surrendered two demon kings as apprentices. This king admires you."

After all, Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong, who are two monster images, have become Tang Sanzang's apprentices obediently. In his eyes, the holy monk has great powers and Buddhist teachings. Otherwise, how could even the monsters be subdued.

"Hehe, the king praised you."

With a smile on his face, Tang Sanzang first pointed to his great disciple Sun Wukong and introduced: "This is the great disciple of the poor monk, Sun Wukong. Five hundred years ago in Wuzhi Mountain, after the poor monk rescued the monkey head, he worshiped the poor monk as his teacher, and he was willing to follow the poor monk to the west to seek the scriptures."

This Tang Sanzang is really shameless, at first he praised his apprentice for a while, saying how awesome he is, but then he suddenly turned around, as if he and the monkey king were enlightened by him and voluntarily followed him to the west to learn scriptures.

Tsk tsk, this evasive introduction immediately raised Tang Sanzang's image even higher, and the old king was even more shocked when he heard it.

Then Tang Sanzang pointed to Zhu Bajie and introduced with a smile: "This is Zhu Bajie, the second apprentice of the poor monk. He used to be the marshal of the Tianpeng who was in charge of the Tianhe [-] water army in the heaven. .”

"Sha Wujing, the poor monk's third disciple is the general of the Heavenly Jade Emperor, and he also went down to the world to become the poor monk's third disciple."

Good guy, after Tang Sanzang's introduction, he completely avoided the important and ignored the trivial. Zhu Bajie said that he was the marshal of the canopy in the sky, without even mentioning that he was demoted to the earth because of his mistakes.

And Sha Wujing didn't mention the four big characters of rolling curtain general. On the contrary, he was the Jade Emperor's personal general. up.

At this moment, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, who were introduced by their master, were also stunned, good guy, and there are such evasive introductions?But the two of them nodded in embarrassment after hearing this.

I can't tell the truth by myself and say that one of them was demoted because he drank some wine and flirted with a fairy, and the other was demoted because he accidentally broke the Queen Mother's glazed cup, right?
This is so embarrassing, the two of them bowed their heads, what their master said was good, but they didn't tell their scandals, it's not a lie, it's not a violation of the precepts.

Hmm, it doesn't count, isn't he, General Sha Wujing, the general of the Jade Emperor?There is absolutely no problem with this.

"Okay, okay, the holy monk really has boundless Dharma, I admire it, this king admires it."

The old king of Baoxiang Kingdom has been fooled so much that he can't find the southeast and northwest, he kept gesticulating his thumbs excitedly, and Tang Sanzang, who saw the effect, smiled and slowly took out his gold-plated customs clearance certificate Handed it over to the guard who came.

After the guard handed it over to the old king, the moment he opened the document, the front page was the basic introduction of the Tang Dynasty, such as how big the territory was, how many people were under his rule, how many soldiers were there, good guy, this scene is very interesting The old king's eyes widened and he couldn't help but gasped.

fear!For his small country, he naturally couldn't understand the power of the Tang Dynasty, and the first seal was the big red seal of the Tang Dynasty.

"It really is the kingdom of the heavens, this king will switch the customs clearance documents."

At this moment, the old king really had an understanding of the Great Tang Dynasty. There are only two words, which are terrifying!It was also the reason for his sigh.

The two countries are incomparable at all, and then the old king solemnly turned to the blank page, and then he personally took a brush and wrote the three big characters of Baoxiang Kingdom on the customs clearance document, and wrote a basic introduction in a decent manner again.

However, when he wrote this content, his cheeks were a little hot. After all, the territory of Baoxiang Kingdom, how many cities there are, and how many soldiers there are are simply incomparable. In the end, he solemnly took out his own seal.

With a bang, the old king held the seal of Baoxiang Kingdom and directly stamped it heavily, and then put away Yuxi, the old king carefully blew on the imprint and pen and ink until he saw that it was correct and did not affect it. Slowly put it away and gave it to the guards again, who then handed it over to Tang Sanzang.

"Holy Monk, it must have been very hard for you to come here from the heaven. It just so happens that tomorrow is the big day of my precious elephant kingdom. This king will personally organize a wedding banquet for his son-in-law and his beloved daughter Bai Huaxiu. How about the holy monk resting in this king's place for a few days?"

At this moment, the old king was as polite as he wanted, and he didn't have the slightest majesty of a superior. It wasn't that he wanted to lower his posture, but it was because the Heavenly Dynasty was too strong, and if he sent tens of thousands of troops casually, they would be regarded as the king. It's a war, but for others, it is a painless existence.

Seeing such a polite old king, after the guard handed over the certificate of customs clearance respectfully, Tang Sanzang immediately smiled kindly and nodded: "The poor monk is planning to rest in your place for a few days, so that he can appreciate the beauty of your country. Customs and customs, just afraid of disturbing the king."

"Haha, the holy monk is too polite. It is my king's honor to be able to come to Baoxiang Kingdom. How can I disturb you?"

Speaking of this, the old king of Baoxiang Kingdom laughed and stroked his white beard and shouted to the guards: "Pass on the speed pass, and prepare the best room and the best vegetarian food for the holy monks in heaven. There must be no slack."

"Yes!" The guard respectfully took the order, and Tang Sanzang got up and respectfully put his hands together and said thanks: "Amitabha, such a poor monk is disturbing the king."

"Haha, the holy monk is too polite."

In this way, in the palace, the old king brought Tang Sanzang and his party to a banquet directly with a face full of joy. During the banquet, he kept asking about the governance policies of the Tang Dynasty and various customs, and Tang Sanzang would also speak in a humorous way. Immediately, the two chatted happily as if they had forgotten each other, and even laughed frequently.

As the night fell, Tang Sanzang and his party returned to the inn arranged by others in the past. The full Zhu Bajie patted his big belly and laughed: "Hehe, Master, this old king is really interesting. The population of the Tang Dynasty is a hundred times a thousand times larger than this In such a small country, he still wants to copy the national policy of other big countries, and he doesn't even think about how small his own population is."

Zhu Bajie teased Tang Sanzang and shook his head with a broken smile, "You idiot, everyone has curiosity and self-confidence, how can we generalize it."

The monkey with fleas almost all over its body jumped and squatted on the chair in the inn room, but covered its mouth and said with a funny smile: "Master, it's not that Lao Sun said that the king looks like a kind-hearted man at first glance, he really isn't that one!" material."

Anyway, Sun Wukong is also a demon king, how can he not know this truth, only Sha Wujing has been cleaning the bed and tidying up since entering the house honestly, he is completely a hard-working disciple, unlike the other two, a Delicious and lazy, one himself is the boss in the team.

Seeing this scene, Tang Sanzang shook his head slightly, but he was still a little worried, don't let a ancestral witch pop up this time, or his heart can't stand it, this Journey to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures is too difficult, fortunately The avatar, if the real body comes out, I'm afraid this is no longer a hell-level Journey to the West, and the Tathagata Buddha will have to kneel when he comes.

"Reporting to the holy monk, my son-in-law of Baoxiang Kingdom is asking to see you behind the door, don't you know the holy monk?"

At this moment, the post station outside the door, the station official, stood respectfully outside the door and asked politely, after all, the inside of this room was arranged by their king himself, so he didn't dare to be careless about it, and there was no mistake in the etiquette .

At this time, Tang Sanzang in the room was stunned when he heard it. If the son-in-law of Baoxiang Kingdom is correct, he should be a yellow-robed monster. Kui Mulang, one of the 28 star kings in the heaven, is also very capable. Fighting with Monkey King is evenly matched.

I just don't know what has changed this time!And Sun Wukong and others also looked out of the door curiously, only to see Tang Sanzang coughing and laughing lightly: "Since it is a son-in-law, why should the poor monk not see you, please hurry up."
