Red Cloud: Establishing Mahayana Buddhism as a Holy Spirit

Chapter 459
The spring breeze blows, everything revives, and the earth is covered with new green clothes.

"Amitabha, the poor monk is a monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. He was ordered by the king of the Tang Dynasty to go to the Western Paradise to learn scriptures. Dare to be a road ahead."

When Tang Sanzang and his party passed by a village, they saw an old man who went up the mountain to cut firewood and couldn't help but want to ask for the way. When the old man saw that it was the holy monk who came to their village to stay for the night, he respectfully returned the salute: "Holy monk You really have the perseverance to wake up so early."

Putting down the courage of his shoulders, the old man respectfully pointed in one direction and said: "Holy Monk, from this direction to the west of Zhuangcun for more than thirty miles, there is a mountain called Qijue."

After hearing this, Zhu Bajie patted his belly and laughed loudly, "My father-in-law, why did this good thing come up with such a name? What is so special about this mountain?"

Although the old man was a little afraid of the pig demon in front of him, after all he had experienced what happened last night, he knew that this pig demon was the disciple of the holy monk, so he suppressed the panic in his heart.

But the old man didn't say it to Zhu Bajie, but explained it to Tang Sanzang respectfully.

"The Qijue Mountain is [-] miles long, and the mountain is full of persimmon fruits. As the saying goes, persimmon trees have seven unique features: one is long-lasting, the other is cloudy, the third is free from bird's nests, the fourth is free from insects, the fifth is frosty leaves to play with, the sixth is fruitful, and the seventh is branches and leaves. fat, hence the name Qijue Mountain."

"Our land is sparsely populated, and the deep mountains have never been visited by anyone. Every year, ripe and rotten persimmons fall on the road, filling up a stone alley. After rain, dew, snow, frost, mildew and summer, it becomes a A place of filth. Commonly known as shit. Especially when the westerly wind blows, there is a filthy smell. Even the latrines don’t smell like this. Now it’s late spring and the southeast wind is blowing, so I haven’t heard it yet.”

After the old man explained it, Zhu Bajie burst out laughing, and even patted his big belly and said with a laugh: "This old pig's stomach can hold a mountain of food, and it happens that these eight hundred miles and seven mountains can make the old man Pigs fill their stomachs."

After hearing Zhu Bajie's big words, the old man shook his head and said: "The holy monk has great powers, and the little old man naturally knows it."

When looking at Zhu Bajie suspiciously, he seemed to be saying, your stomach is indeed not small, but how much can it hold? Only when you see Tang Sanzang will you show respect.

"Holy Monk, to tell you the truth, we have been here for a long time in Corning. It's just that in the past three years and June, a sudden gust of wind blew up. He panicked immediately when he saw the strange wind, and he only said that the sky had changed. Unexpectedly, where the wind passed, a goblin ate the cows and horses, pigs and sheep, and saw chickens and geese swallowing whole, and men and women swallowing them alive .”

Speaking of this, the old man said with tears in his eyes: "Holy Monk, since that time, this monster has been coming here frequently for the past two years, and this monster has been hiding in the Qijue Mountain. If the Holy Monk has the means, take After killing him and sweeping away the land, I will thank you very much and dare not be slighted."

"You old man, is it possible that you have hired one or two eminent monks or Taoist priests to eradicate this monster in the past few years?"

Zhu Bajie is not stupid either, after hearing about the environment here and the ordinary aura, he couldn't help showing suspicion. There shouldn't be a big monster here, after all, his identity doesn't match.

After hearing Zhu Bajie's words, the old man immediately shook his head and sighed, "I visited a monk in Shannan the year before last, and asked him to come here to get the demon."

"The sorcerer was also wearing cassock. He first talked about "Peacock" and then recited "Fahua". He burned incense and paper and held a bell in his hand. May the black mist fill the sky when the monsters are fighting. After the black mist dissipates in the blink of an eye, we wait Looking closer, this mage's bald head was beaten into a rotten watermelon!"

When he said this, the old man couldn't help but glanced at Zhu Bajie, then shook his head and said, "Later we invited a Taoist priest who subdues demons and demons, wearing a golden crown and cassock. When the token was struck, water was sprinkled all over the sky. I was able to drive away the gods and arrest the monster. This time is not bad, but I fought with the monster until the night. I thought that this time I would be sure, but I never thought that the next day, the Taoist priest would drown in the mountain stream."

After hearing this, Zhu Bajie burst into laughter, this time he could almost judge that the monster here should be a little monster who has never seen the world, otherwise it would not be like this.

"Old man, don't worry, with my master and me waiting, I will subdue this monster for you when passing through Qijue Mountain."

After seeing Zhu Bajie's guarantee, the old man immediately thanked him excitedly.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Tang Sanzang, who was riding on the white dragon horse, smiled and put his palms together and said, "Old man, don't worry, when the poor monk and disciples pass by Qijue Mountain and encounter this monster, we will get rid of this evil for you."

However, there is indeed something in Tang Sanzang's words. If he can't meet this monster, he will naturally not waste time looking for monsters. Although he is a monk and pays attention to cultivating merit, everything has a spirit. cause and effect.

Tang Sanzang and his party headed towards Qijue Mountain. Sure enough, there was an unpleasant stench and filth in the air, and the road was even more blocked. After seeing the scene in front of him, Tang Sanzang couldn't help shaking his head secretly. , It's disgusting, this Western Buddhism really does everything in order to make up for the 81 difficulties.

However, after seeing the rotten persimmons everywhere in the Qijue Mountains had already blocked the road, Monkey King rolled his eyes and suddenly showed a playful smile, turned around and said directly to Tang Sanzang jokingly.

"Master, don't worry, eight hundred miles in the Qijue mountain area is nothing, and there happens to be Bajie, who can restrain this place."

Zhu Bajie on the side was shocked when he heard that there was something about him, and then turned his head to look at Monkey King and exclaimed in surprise: "Brother Monkey, why is there something about the old pig?"

"You idiot." Seeing the playful smile on Sun Wukong's face, he joked: "Bajie, isn't this just a good way to display your natural ability? Don't you often say that monkeys love peaches, and this old grandson admits, so you A pig can just open this way for Master."

Well, Sun Wukong joked, Zhu Bajie stared straight at his eyes, and then said angrily: "Brother Monkey, you are just burying an old pig."

This is almost like letting pigs come to the road.When Tang Sanzang saw the two making a scene, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright Wukong, don't make fun of Bajie."

After hearing this, Sun Wukong shook his head with a smile all over his face, "Bajie, look at what you said, didn't you misunderstand my grandson? My grandson means that your nine-toothed rake is not just right."

But Zhu Bajie stared and said unhappily: "Old pig is not stupid, Brother Monkey, what you just said was Gong."

"Bajie, are you going? Or are you not going?"

In the end, Sun Wukong even showed a malicious smile. At this moment, Zhu Bajie muttered aggrievedly and said: "Go, why not go, for the sake of the old master, of course the old pig will open the way."

Although he was full of grievances, Zhu Bajie was still unambiguous in his business. He slowly threw the nine-toothed rake in his palm and shouted: "Long!"

In an instant, the nine-toothed rake in his palm turned into a giant weapon about [-] feet long, and then Zhu Bajie yelled again.

"go with!"

I saw that the [-]-foot giant weapon flew directly into the air, and under the control of Zhu Bajie's magic power, he immediately began to plan it vigorously.

Throwing to the two sides respectively, the sharp rake directly penetrates the filthy thing, and penetrates several feet into the ground, and then a large piece of ground is turned up with force, just like the upturning of the ground, the difference is A muddy road has been opened up.

Seeing this scene, Sun Wukong laughed and went forward to hold his master's white dragon horse and teased: "Master, you see, we just say that Bajie is suitable, isn't it natural?"

One sentence made Zhu Bajie, who was manipulating his own weapon to do such things, speechless. He shook his helpless pig's head, and his pair of big ears swayed from side to side.

Tang Sanzang, who was sitting on the white dragon horse, smiled and shook his head after seeing this scene, and wrote the three characters of Qijue Mountain on the book of mountains and seas with a brush.

In the original book, it is indeed Zhu Bajie's credit to be able to cross the Qijue Mountain. The difference is that in the original book, Zhu Bajie turned into a big pig, and he really pushed it all the way.

However, now that Zhu Bajie is dignified in Daluojin Wonderland, plus some changes, how could he still do such things, so he wronged this "Shangbaoqin Golden Rake", and he really didn't kill you demon king along the way, right? But the work of opening the road was done at all, and it was a full eight hundred miles.

Tang Sanzang and his disciples moved forward for an unknown period of time. Suddenly, in the evening, a gust of wind blew in. At this moment, Monkey King, who was leading the white horse, exclaimed suddenly. When he raised his head, his golden eyes stared at him even more. With this black demon wind.

"Not good! It's a monster!"

I saw two golden lights flickering in the sky under the dark wind, Zhu Bajie exclaimed even more after seeing this: "What a monster, you actually went out with a lantern."

However, Sha Wujing, who was always taciturn, shook his head and said, "Second Senior Brother, these are the eyes of a monster, not some kind of lantern."

How could Zhu Bajie not know, he immediately glanced at himself, Junior Brother Sha, and sighed helplessly, he really has no sense of humor.

"What a monster, you dare to block the way of my old Master Sun, you really can't do it!"

Sun Wukong with piercing eyes naturally saw the monster's body, and couldn't help sneering, and the monster in the sky suddenly revealed its true shape, which turned out to be a beautiful woman. I saw that the monster was holding two guns and a gun hanging from his waist. Baojian, with a pair of eyes emitting a cold light, suddenly showed excitement when he saw the person riding on the white horse.

Tang Sanzang!At this moment, the monster shouted excitedly: "Stay with Tang Sanzang, and I will let you go."

"Hey, you monsters are begging to be beaten!"

Sun Wukong immediately cursed jokingly, and immediately held the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, which turned into a golden light and hit the monster above the nine heavens, and the monster started to fight back with a firm face, not to be outdone.

But it is said that Monkey King in the sky is majestic and majestic holding a Ruyi golden cudgel, while this beautiful monster is holding two guns to block and parry.

"This goblin is good at marksmanship! He actually used a soft-handled gun!"

Zhu Bajie, who was watching the excitement, suddenly showed a look of amazement. This monster was from Ye Luzi at first glance. Not to mention the surging and mixed monster energy, and the chaotic momentum, it was obvious that he forcibly raised his cultivation level. You know, nine out of ten things are caused by Western Buddhism, otherwise this monster would not have such a situation.

But even though he was from Ye Luzi, it has to be said that this marksmanship is really a school of its own, and its skill is incomparably subtle.

And Sun Wukong also developed a playful heart. Although he looked majestic, he was more careless, and the result of seven points of strength was returned to three points.

"You monster, with such a messy aura and such aggressive behavior, your life is not long."

At this time, even Monkey King could see something was wrong, the monster was so chaotic, it was obvious that there was a dead air in the soaring monster's aura, and after hearing what Monkey King said, the monster not only did not flinch but was ferocious shouted at Tang Sanzang below.

"Tang Sanzang, aren't you a holy monk? I've been murdered and now I'm dying. It's rumored that as long as I eat a piece of your meat, I can live forever. I don't ask for immortality, I just ask for help. If you are a holy monk, please pity me." Life, give me a piece of flesh and blood, and I will repay you in the future."

It has to be said that under the threat of death, this monster actually knew how to use the aggressive method. After hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately showed an angry face, and shouted: "Monster, you are looking for death."

However, the next moment Tang Sanzang, who was riding the white dragon horse below, smiled and shook his head, raised his hand and said, "Wukong, save this demon's life."

After Sun Wukong heard this, he stopped, but he still stayed in mid-air and stared at Negative, and the monster was out of breath not long after fighting, and his breath became more chaotic.

At this moment, the monster was staring at Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang, with a look of despair in his eyes. He knew that he was no match, but no one was willing to wait for death, even if there was little hope, or even Impossible, no one wants to give up.

However, Tang Sanzang, who was sitting on the white dragon horse at this time, smiled and shook his head with his hands clasped together: "Amitabha, I don't know when it was said that eating a piece of meat from a poor monk can make you live forever. If it is true, the poor monk can't help being greedy. Eat yourself a piece."

There was even a hint of ridicule in the tone, but the goblin said in a cold voice after hearing this: "The monsters in Hezhou, Xiniu have known about it for a long time."

It seems that besides, you monk, why don't you admit it.

However, Tang Sanzang shook his head with a smile, and slowly raised his hand to signal Sha Wujing: "Wujing, take a small bowl from the salute. Since it is said that a piece of meat from a poor monk can live forever, and a mouthful of blood can make you immortal, today The poor monk will imitate the Tathagata Buddha of the West and feed the eagles with meat to see if the rumor is true or not."

Zhu Bajie showed a surprised expression after hearing this, Sha Wujing seemed to be a little confused, and the monster in the sky showed an expression of disbelief after hearing this.
