Tang Monk looked at Zhu Bajie and said, "We, master and disciple, have begged many people along the way. I just feel that they are all down this mountain. If I can do nothing, I won't ask for help!"
Elder Tang didn't know that he When I feel panicked, I touch my nose subconsciously.
After saying this, he put down the hand touching his nose.
Monkey and the others would not expose him. Monkey led Tang Monk and the three of them to climb Lingshan Mountain slowly and slowly.
Within five or six miles, I saw a stream of living water, with loud gurgling waves and flying currents. It was about eight or nine miles wide and deserted.
"Elder brother, this is a bad time. Could it be that that guy pointed the wrong way? The water is so wide and turbulent, and there is no boat in sight. How can we cross it?" Zhu Bajie asked worriedly.
The monkey glanced at the master, but he looked calm when he saw him.
The monkey laughed and said, "Why are you so anxious, you idiot? Isn't there a bridge over there? You have to walk across that bridge to achieve success."
Zhu Bajie looked at Tang Monk , but saw Master walking to the front.
When Tang Monk approached, there was a plaque beside the bridge, with the words "Lingyundu" written on it. It turned out to be a single-plank bridge!
"Wukong, do you want to become a Buddha?" Tang Monk looked at the monkey and asked.
“No!” the monkey replied without hesitation.
"I don't want it even as a teacher." Tang Seng finally showed a smile on his face. "No! I don't want to be an immortal Buddha like them."
"Master..." the monkey shouted worriedly.
Tang Monk looked at the water surface under the single-plank bridge. The water surface was extremely wide and the waves were fast and big.
Tang Monk fell into the water in one step.
"Oh my god! Master committed suicide!" Zhu Bajie shouted eagerly.
"Shut up!" shouted the monkey.
Sha Monk hurried forward, ready to save people.
As a result, Tang Monk put his hands together and stood on the water.
"That bridge was not my choice. That bridge is for people who have become immortals and Buddhas.
I, Tang Sanzang, am a monk and a living being. We should cross here!"
Elder Tang A faint golden light emerged from his body, and he just walked in the river.
At this time a small boat came from a distance.
The monkey knew who it was at a glance. It was Namo Baozhuangguangwang Buddha who came.
The people on the boat were somewhat shocked when they saw Tang Monk walking on foot!
The monkey said to Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, "Get on the boat and you can shed your physical body. I'm afraid you two are not qualified to become Buddhas, but you can be an Arhat and an envoy."
< br>"I want to go back to Gao Laozhuang!" Zhu Bajie said with a smile.
"I want to return to the Liusha River and become the river god." Sha Monk also said.
Tang Monk could actually hear what they said, turned his head and said to them with a smile, "Just wait here for the three of you to become teachers!"
The Buddha on the boat had no intention of caring about the three monkeys anymore, and directly caught up with Elder Tang.
"Sanzang, why don't you let me ferry you!"
"You should ferry the world, not just Sanzang." Tang Monk smiled and refused.
With a sigh, the boat and the Buddha on the boat disappeared.
Finally Tang Monk got ashore. As soon as he got ashore, the bridge and the river disappeared.
"Disciples, come on!" Tang Seng said to them.
The monkeys followed them.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng do not have the ability of monkeys, so they did not see that Tang Seng had become a golden body!
But Elder Tang’s body is still there!
The monkey was amazed. He looked at Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng and said, "Do you know what opportunities you have lost?"
"Isn't it just a chance to become a Buddha!" Zhu Bajie patted his belly and said, "I don't care about it at all, old pig!
Well, actually I'm still a little bit reluctant to give it up. But when I think about the wife at home, I don't Why can’t I give up?”
Sha Seng even said self-deprecatingly, “I’m afraid they’ll call me a fisherman.” Why didn't you get on the boat just now?" the monkey asked the white horse.
Baima smiled bitterly and said, "Obviously they didn't want to cross me, and I saw clearly along the way.
I got on that boat today, and in the end I just became a demon king in Hezhou, Xiniu. The demon king still wants to listen to them.
If it were before, I would naturally be willing.
But along the way, I have experienced so many things with my master and three senior brothers. Now I am no longer the self-righteous monster I used to be! "
Listening to what he said, even Elder Tang laughed out loud.
"Disciples, let's go! "Tang Seng walked in the front this time.
Outside the mountain gate of Leiyin Temple.
Two Vajras stood at the door to greet the master and disciples and said, "The holy monk has finally arrived?"
"It is the disciple Tripitaka who has arrived."
After answering, that's it. Want to enter.
Na King Kong hurriedly said, "Holy Monk, please stay here for a while. Please allow me to pass by before entering."
The Vajra sent a message to the four Vajras on the second gate saying that Tang Monk had arrived. The second gate then sent a message to the third gate, saying that Tang Monk had arrived. The three gates were originally offering sacrifices to the sacred monks. When they heard that Tang Monk had arrived, they were anxious. To His Majesty the Great.
The Tathagata reported, "The holy monks of the Tang Dynasty have come to Baoshan to collect scriptures." The Tathagata showed a smile on his face and summoned the eight Bodhisattvas, the Four Vajras, five hundred Aras, three thousand enlightenments, and ten One big sun and eighteen blues were arranged in two rows. At this time, the golden edict was passed and the monk Tang was summoned to come in.
Over there, one by one, in accordance with the Buddha's decree, he called: "Holy Monk, come in."
Tang Monk raised his eyes and looked, "It turns out there is no difference. ! ”
It turns out that there is no difference between gods and Buddhas and secular emperors!
After saying that, he took the monkeys and the others into the Main Hall!
"Sanzang pays homage to my Buddha Tathagata!" Tang Monk put his hands together and saluted.
“Bold!”
“Unbridled!”
The Vajras and Arhats in the Mahavira Hall shouted.
How dare this Tang Monk neglect Tathagata like this?
Unexpectedly, Tathagata was not angry, but instead stopped those menacing Vajras and Arhats.
The monkey raised his eyes and remembered the ones with the loudest calls.
Let them try my old iron rod when they get the chance!
"Jin Chanzi, I didn't expect you to have achieved the true state of cultivation!" Tathagata said with emotion.
“Amitabha!” Tang Monk clasped his hands together. "The person in front of you at this time is not Jin Chanzi, but Tang Sanzang, a scripture seeker from the Eastern Tang Dynasty!"
Before meeting the Golden Summit Immortal, Tang Monk saw Jin Chanzi in his dream son.
They had a Buddhist debate in their dream.
In the end Jin Chanzi lost, so he gave his memory to Tang Seng.
There was no trace of sadness or joy on Tathagata's face, so Tang Monk continued, "Young monk came all the way here just to obtain the true scriptures.
Please also ask the Buddha to be compassionate and give the true scriptures so that we can return home as soon as possible!"< br>
The Tathagata opened his mouth of compassion and showed great compassion, and said to Tripitaka, "Your eastern land is the Nanshan continent.
Because the sky is thick, the things are vast, the people are dense, and there is so much greed and greed. Killing, excessive lewdness, deception and deceit.
Do not follow Buddhism, do not pursue good deeds, do not respect the three rays of light, and do not value grains.
Unfaithful and unfilial, unjust and unkind, and hiding one's heart from others.
Big fights with small scales, killing of animals, causing boundless sins, full of sins and evil, leading to disasters in hell.
So I will fall into the netherworld forever, suffering the pain of being pounded and pounded by many mills; I will transform into an animal, taking on the shape of many hairy and horned animals, using my body to pay debts and feeding people with meat.
This is the reason why he will always fall into the abi and cannot be promoted.
Although Confucius established his teachings of benevolence, justice, etiquette and wisdom, and emperors successively punished some by hanging or beheading, the effect was very little.
Now I have the Tripitaka, which can transcend suffering and explain disasters. There are thirty-five volumes in total, totaling fifteen thousand one hundred and forty-four volumes. It is truly the path to cultivation and the door to righteousness.
Everything from astronomy, geography, characters, birds and beasts, flowers and trees, utensils, and human affairs in the four major continents of the world is recorded.
You have come from afar, and everything will be given to you and you will take it away, but the people there are stupid village strongmen, slandering the truth, and do not know me, the ascetic..."
The monkey is already ready to taunt. .
Nanzhan Buzhou has been talked about so badly. If Monkey had never seen it, he would not say much today.
But they walked from Nanzhanbuzhou to Xiniuhezhou!
There is so much greed, so much killing, so much lewdness, so much deception!
How unfaithful, unfilial, unjust, unkind, and secretive!
Where are the big fights and small scales, killing of animals, causing boundless sins, and the sins are full of evil!
Not anywhere else!
It’s your Xiniu Hezhou! It's right at the foot of your spiritual mountain!
"I hope that Buddha will give me the true scripture!" Tang Seng was unmoved and said directly.
The monkey looked at Tang Seng puzzled, but Tang Seng gave him a look that asked him to believe him. Because of the trust along the way, Monkey swallowed his own rebuttal.
"Anuo and Kassapa, you two will lead the four people to him under the treasure tower and treat him to a fasting meal first. After fasting, open the treasure pavilion and take the three scriptures from my Tripitaka. Within the fifteen volumes, each of them will check a few volumes with him and teach him to pass them on to the Eastern Land and be filled with great kindness forever."
Tathagata thought that something unexpected would happen, but he didn't expect Tang Monk to just save himself.
But I still have the same thirst for the true scriptures as before.
According to the Buddha's order, the two venerables led all four of them downstairs. I can't see all the rare and precious treasures, arranged endlessly.
I saw the gods setting up offerings and preparing banquets, all of which were filled with fairy delicacies, fairy tea and fairy fruits. They were all kinds of delicacies, which were different from the ordinary world.
“Old neighbor, long time no see.” The monkey smiled at Nuo.
“Amitabha, compared with the time we have been neighbors, the time we have not seen each other is just a snap of the finger.” Anuo said with a smile. "You should fast first."
Tang Monk looked at the delicacies in front of him. It was the first time for him to see these things, but the rich fragrance made people want to eat.
But he couldn't help but think of the hungry people in Fengxian County and the people who were struggling along the way.
He suddenly lost his appetite!
Zhu Bajie didn’t care about that, he sat down and started to feast.
The pig's mouth was snoring as he ate, as if he wanted to use these foods to make up for the loss of his position as an envoy.
Kasyapa glanced at Zhu Bajie with some disgust. He turned to Tang Monk and said, "Where have you ever eaten these good things? Eat some quickly.
I'm afraid you won't have the chance to eat them again in the future!"< br>
“Don’t you eat these things often?” the monkey asked, holding a few fruits.
"Hahaha, we have eaten enough." Kasyapa said with a smile, with a little sarcasm in his tone.
"Where do these things come from?" the monkey looked at him and asked.
"Of course the offerings of mortals are not worthy of our enjoyment. These things were planted by believers in our small world." Kasyapa said with some showoff. (End of this chapter)
