Chapter 154

Monkey King accompanied Tang Sanzang to set off again, and they traveled for a few days without incident.

One day, Tang Sanzang was on his horse, and he heard the sound of Hulala water in the distance. He saw a sound in the stream, and a dragon came out, pushed the waves, smashed out of the cliff mountain, and went straight to Tang Sanzang and Monkey King.

Seeing this, Monkey King hurriedly dragged Tang Sanzang off his horse, turned around and left.The dragon rushed to the front, swallowed Tang Sanzang's white horse including the saddle and bridle in one gulp, and still lurked under the water.When Sun Wukong saw it, he said to Sanzang, "Master, that damned dragon has disappeared and just swallowed our horse."

Hearing this, Tang Sanzang said with embarrassment on his face: "The road to the west is not far away, how can we do it without horses! Wukong, you used to say that you have supernatural powers, why did you let him take us away this time?" His horse was eaten!"

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "I want to protect you, Master, that's why that little loach took advantage. Hmph, my old grandson will make him look good today."

After finishing speaking, Sun Wukong lifted up his tiger skin skirt, held up the golden hoop and iron rod, cheered up, and drove the auspicious cloud on the water, shouting: "Splash the loach, give me back my horse, give me back my horse!"

The dragon ate Sanzang's white horse, and lay down in the middle of the ravine, submerging his soul and nourishing his nature.He could only hear someone yelling at Soma, he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, jumped into the waves and jumped up and said: "Who dares to hurt me here?"

Seeing him, Monkey King yelled, "Stop the evil dragon! Give me back my horse!" Turning the stick, he hit him head on.The dragon bared its teeth and claws to catch it.The two of them fought by the stream.

Back and forth, the dragon was weak and numb, no matter where it was Monkey King's opponent, it was beaten by Monkey King in a short while, and it was powerless to fight back.Sun Wukong put more strength in his hands, grabbed the dragon's tendons, and captured the dragon.

Although the dragon was captured by Sun Wukong, he still refused to give in and roared loudly. Sun Wukong was furious and raised his golden cudgel to beat him down.At this time, I heard the voice coming from the sky: "Wukong wait a moment."

When Sun Wukong heard the words, he stopped and followed the sound, but he saw that Guanyin Bodhisattva had arrived at some time.When Sun Wukong saw that it was Guanyin Bodhisattva, he thought of the golden hoop on his head, and naturally he didn't have a good face.But Tang Sanzang at the side saw the arrival of Guanyin Bodhisattva, but he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly paid homage: "I have seen the Bodhisattva, but I don't know why the Bodhisattva came?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva ignored Sun Wukong, smiled at Tang Sanzang, and said, "Sanzang, this evil dragon has some fate with you, and this poor monk came here for this reason."

After saying that, Guanyin Bodhisattva descended from the cloud, came to the dragon, and said to him: "You just swallowed Sanzang's white horse, and you owe him a karma. I wonder how you will pay him back?"

The white dragon said: "The white horse is in my belly, if you want it, I will spit it out and return it to you."

Avalokitesvara heard the words and said: "Evil Dragon, Evil Dragon, don't be rampant, I know your origin. You are the son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea. You only set fire to the jewel in the temple. Your father accused you of disobedience, and you were demoted to the earth." between."

As soon as the white dragon heard Avalokitesvara tell him about his origins, he knelt down and said, "Bodhisattva has boundless magic power, I implore Bodhisattva to point out a way for Xiaolong to return to the immortal way."

Avalokitesvara said: "It was your chance that you ate Sanzang's white horse today. How did the mortal horse from the east go through the thousands of rivers and mountains? How did you get to the Buddhist land of Lingshan? You must have a dragon horse before you can go there. As long as you are willing to worship Tripitaka as your teacher, make a foothold with him, and go to the west to seek the scriptures together, then you will pay off your karma, and after you succeed, you will surpass all dragons, and you will be rewarded with a golden body and a true fruit."

Upon hearing this, Bai Long thought for a moment, then knelt down and said, "I am willing."

Avalokitesvara heard the words, nodded and said: "Great kindness!" After speaking, a white light flew out of his hand and landed on the white dragon. In front of Sanzang.

At this time, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said to Tang Sanzang: "Sanzang, congratulations on adding another beautiful disciple."

Tang Sanzang heard the words and said, "Thanks to the Bodhisattva!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled, turned to Sun Wukong and said, "Wukong, come here, I have something to say to you."

Sun Wukong was dissatisfied with Guanyin Bodhisattva because of the golden hoop, so he pretended not to listen to Guanyin Bodhisattva's words.

Guanyin Bodhisattva knew that Sun Wukong did this because of the golden hoop, so he was not angry, but just smiled and said: "You monkey, if you don't come here again, I will recite the mantra of the tight hoop!"

When Sun Wukong heard that Avalokitesvara was about to recite the mantra, he immediately apologized with a smile and said, "Don't read, don't read! My old grandson is afraid that you will not succeed!" After speaking, he walked to Avalokitesvara's side.However, anyone who saw the expression on his face would know that he was extremely reluctant.

Guanyin Bodhisattva would not care about these things with Monkey King. Seeing Monkey King coming, she said to Monkey King: "This time you go west, you must do your best to protect Tripitaka. There will be many difficulties and dangers along the way. You have to rely on you to deal with it. This is also an experience for you. These three life-saving hairs are given to you by the Buddha. , I promise you to call Tian Tian Ying and Di Di Ling. In the future, if you need anything, all the gods and gods in the Three Realms will help you."

After hearing this, Sun Wukong was very happy to learn that the Tathagata Buddha gave him such a powerful supernatural power, and he quickly thanked Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"You Poor Monkey, you were so rude to me just now, why are you thanking me now." Guanyin Bodhisattva scolded with a smile.

Sun Wukong scratched his head and said with an embarrassed smile: "I was wrong just now, Bodhisattva, please be merciful, recite the mantra of loosening the hoop, and remove the golden hoop from my head!"

"Wukong, I know you are very dissatisfied with this matter, but this golden hoop was cast for you by your mentor, but I don't have the ability to take it off!" Guanyin Bodhisattva rumored to Sun Wukong.

As soon as Sun Wukong heard the words "teacher and teacher", his eyes flashed with joy, and he was about to ask Guanyin Bodhisattva what was going on.He didn't want to, but saw Guanyin Bodhisattva making a silent gesture to him.He nodded and said to Guanyin Bodhisattva, "Patriarch, is he alright?"

Guanyin nodded, and continued to spread rumors to Sun Wukong: "Wukong, I know what you think in your heart, but I advise you not to. He will not see you until you have completed this great task of learning scriptures. For nothing. The three hairs just now were given to you by him, and he has very high expectations for you!"

Sun Wukong heard the words, nodded, and said: "Bodhisattva, my grandson understands!"

"Good, good, Wukong is good to protect your master, and the poor monk is leaving!" Guanyin Bodhisattva said.

After speaking, Guanyin Bodhisattva left on a cloud.

After watching Avalokitesvara leave, Sun Wukong held back his joy and said to Tang Sanzang, "Master, let's set off!"

Tang Sanzang nodded upon hearing the words.So, Tang Sanzang rode on the dragon horse, and the two continued to go west.

The two master and apprentice walked the deserted road for another five or seven days. It was getting late, and they saw a village of people from a distance.Wukong looked at it and said: "Master, please come, it must be a good family in the village, and they can stay overnight."

Tang Sanzang smiled and urged the white horse to come to the entrance of the village. He saw a young man with a cotton cloth on his head and a blue coat. Monkey King grabbed him and said, "Where are you going? I'll ask you a letter, what is this place?"

The man had no choice but to tell the truth: "I am a family member of Grandpa Gao, named Gaocai. My grandpa has a daughter who is only 20 years old and has never been married. She was taken by a goblin three years ago. The goblin After being a son-in-law for the past three years, my father-in-law was displeased, saying that my daughter recruited a goblin, it’s not a way of growing up, one is ruining the family, and the other is that she has no in-laws. It will be locked in his back house for half a year, and he will not be released to see his family members. My grandfather gave me a few taels of silver and taught me to find the mage and take the monster. I have never stopped these days, and I have invited three The four of them are all bad monks and Taoist priests with pustules. They can't surrender that goblin. They scolded me just now, saying that I don't know how to do things, and they made money with me for five cents to teach me to hire a good mage to surrender him. .”

Monkey King Xidou heard that there were monsters making trouble, and said with a smile: "Your good fortune, I have a living, you don't need to travel far, don't waste money. We are not those bad monks, Taoist priests with pustules, who are used to taking money. Monster. Please go back and report to your Patriarch, saying that we are the monks sent by Dongtu to go to the west to worship Buddha and seek Buddhist scriptures, and we are good at subduing demons and binding monsters."

In fact, the monster here is none other than Marshal Tianpeng, who was deliberately demoted to the mortal world under the order of Zhunti.After Marshal Tianpeng was demoted to the earth, he was cast into a pig's fetus.Inspired by Guanyin Bodhisattva, he named it Zhu Wuneng, and waited for the Buddhist scriptures next time.After waiting for several years, no Buddhist monks came.I don't want to meet that young lady of the Gao family by accident one day, and my heart is moved, so this kind of thing happened.

Thus, everything developed according to the original Journey to the West.Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang came to Gao's house accompanied by that Gaocai.Later, under the design of Monkey King, after half a night of tossing, the pig Wuneng was captured by Monkey King.

After some words, Zhu Wuneng told Sun Wukong that he was enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva and was here waiting for the learners.Upon hearing this, Monkey King took him back to meet Tang Sanzang.

After Tang Sanzang found out, he accepted Zhu Wuneng and named him Bajie.

After being thanked by Mrs. Gao, this strengthened scripture learning group went to the west again.

Leaving Gaolaozhuang, Tang Sanzang and his disciples walked for more than three months, when suddenly they saw a raging flood and turbulent waves.When Sanzang saw it, he said happily, "Apprentice, you see the wide water ahead, why don't you see boats walking?"

Zhu Bajie saw it and said, "It's really a raging sea, and there is no boat to cross."

Wukong jumped in the air, put his hands on the awning to look at it, and said in surprise: "This water is really weird."

Tang Sanzang got off his horse, walked around the river, and suddenly saw a stone tablet standing on the spot.He turned around and called Monkey King and Zhu Bajie, "There is a stone tablet here, I don't know what is written on it."

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie stepped forward and saw that there were three seal characters on it, which was Liusha River, and there were small four-line characters on the belly: eight hundred quicksand realms, three thousand weak water depths.Goose feathers can't float, but reed flowers sink to the bottom.

At this time, one could only hear the waves surging like mountains and rolling like mountains, and a goblin slipped out of the river, with red flaming hair and two round eyes shining like lamps.Not black, not blue, with indigo face, like thunder, like the sound of an old dragon.Wearing a goose-yellow cloak with a collar, and double-stretched white vines around the waist.There are nine skeletons hanging under the neck, holding a treasure staff, which is very majestic.This monster is the rolling shutter general who ate the reincarnated body of Jin Chanzi's ninth life.

As soon as the monster came out, it turned into a gust of wind and went straight to Tang Sanzang. Sun Wukong was so panicked that he stood in front of his master. Bajie put down his burden, took out iron palladium, and attacked the monster. Fight in one place.

That monster's cultivation base is lower than that of Monkey King and Zhu Bajie, so how can they make the two join forces to fight against each other.After the three of you come and go through fifty moves, the monster has less attack and more defense.After one hundred moves, he was already defeated, and he was about to die under the cooperation of Monkey King and Zhu Bajie.

"Wukong, Wu Neng, stop quickly!" Suddenly, a voice said.

The three of them stopped when they heard the words.I saw Guanyin Bodhisattva falling from the sky.

When Tang Sanzang and his disciples saw Guanyin Bodhisattva, they immediately saluted and said hello.After some words, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva understood the purpose of coming.

As early as when Guanyin Bodhisattva fell down, the monster was fixed in place by Guanyin Bodhisattva.After Guanyin Bodhisattva explained the purpose of coming to Tang Sanzang and his disciples, he said to the monster: "You have killed Jin Chanzi nine times, Rolling Curtain, but you owe Jin Chanzi a cause and effect. Now you may wish to worship Jin Chanzi!" As a disciple of the reincarnation, protecting him to go west is also considered the karma."

The monster also recognized Guanyin Bodhisattva, and he was originally a monster in the lower realm in order to sneak into the team of Journey to the West.Now that I have heard the words of Guanyin Bodhisattva, how can I not agree.

Seeing his agreement, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva untied the body-fixing method on him.The monster came in front of Tang Sanzang, knelt down and said, "I have committed a lot of crimes in the past. Today, I would like to worship under the master's door and protect the master to go west, so as to redeem the past sins. I hope the master will be fulfilled."

Tang Sanzang heard the words and looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva.Seeing Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded, he said: "Amitabha, put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately. Since you have a heart for good, how can the poor monk not agree."

Hearing the words, the monster kowtowed three times to Tang Sanzang, and said: "The disciple sees the master."

Tang Sanzang said: "Since you have entered my Buddhist school, I will give you a name as a teacher. After thinking about it, Tang Sanzang continued: "As a teacher, I will refer to He as your surname, and give me a Dharma name, called Sha Wu net! "

The monster listened to the words and saluted: "The disciple thanked the master for giving the name." After finishing speaking, he went forward to greet Monkey King and Zhu Bajie again.

After doing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva said to Sha Wujing again: "Sha Wujing, take the necklace around your neck, so that I can help you wait for master and disciple to cross the river."

Hearing this, Sha Wujing took off the magic weapon necklace that was made from the skull of Jin Chanzi's ninth reincarnated body from his neck.Handed it to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

After Guanyin took it, he knotted the nine skulls into nine palaces, threw them into the Liusha River, floated in the river, and put a gourd in it, and let Tang Sanzang ride on it.

Tang Sanzang got off the shore, boarded the Dharma boat, sat on it, and it was as stable as a light boat.Supported by Zhu Bajie on the left, and supported by Sha Wujing on the right, Sun Wukong led the dragon and horse in the back, half cloud and half fog to follow, floating steadily across the Liusha River, and crossing the Weak River with calm waves and calm wind.The real one is also flying like an arrow, and after a short time, they will be on the other side and get rid of the flood, and the masters and apprentices will be down-to-earth.Guanyin Bodhisattva took the gourd, and the skeleton turned into nine dark winds for a while, and disappeared without a trace.

At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva rode a cloud into the air, and said to Tang Sanzang: "Sanzang, now your master and disciples have gathered together. This also means that the real test is about to begin. The road ahead will be full of dangers. We can work together with one heart and one mind to complete this great cause of learning from the scriptures.”

"I understand, thank you Bodhisattva!" Tang Sanzang bowed.

"Okay, let's go on, I'm leaving too!" After finishing speaking, Guanyin Bodhisattva left on a cloud.

Seeing Guanyin Bodhisattva leave, Tang Sanzang said to several disciples: "Disciples, let's go!".After speaking, he rode his horse forward.Monkey King waited for a look, and quickly followed.

Besides, after the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva left, he did not go back to his ashram, South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest.Instead, go 33 days away.

Arriving at the ashram of the 33 Heavenly Outer Buddhist Sages, Guanyin Bodhisattva said to Zhunti and Amitabha who were seated high on the top: "Return to the two saints. Now Tang Sanzang's master and disciples have gathered together, but they don't know what to do next. Please ask the saints to clarify." tell."

Zhunti and Amitabha heard the words and nodded.I only heard Zhunti say at this moment: "Honorable Avalokitesvara, tomorrow you invite a few Bodhisattvas to test their masters and apprentices, so as to stabilize their desire to seek the scriptures. After you are done, you are going to speak That is to say, within the Three Realms, no matter it is a demon, an immortal, or an ordinary person, if they eat the meat of Tang Sanzang, not only their magic power will be greatly increased, but those who are not immortal can also live forever by this."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva heard the words, said: "The sage's ingenious plan, the disciples admire!"

"Okay, you go down and deal with this matter. Remember, you must protect Tang Sanzang well. The success or failure of my Buddhism depends entirely on him this time!" Zhunti said.

"I understand, I'm leaving!" Guanyin Bodhisattva said.

After finishing speaking, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva saw Zhunti and Amitabha Buddha wandering away with their eyes closed, bowed to them, then withdrew and descended to the Lingshan Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
