Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 192 Preliminary Training of the Dead
good water.

Everyone looked at it intently, only to feel as if they were at a loss like the sea, and they looked even more boundless.

When the wind blows, there will be turbulent waves, and there will be no fishing fire at the shore, which shows that the river is ferocious.

Bajie said to Xiaobailong: "Little brother, this monster in the water is usually a relative of your family, just call it twice, ask him to come out and treat us to a water meal, and then send us across the river tomorrow morning." , isn’t everything going to be fine.”

Everyone felt reasonable after hearing this, and the Great Sage also laughed and said: "It's very, very very, even if you are not a relative of the Dragon King's family, you will also be dispatched by the world. Junior brother, please go down and find out."

"Little brother will come as soon as he goes."

Xiaobailong entered the water to search the river, came back a while later, and said: "Master, it's not my relatives who are missing this time, and they are not under the jurisdiction of the world, but they say it is the water god of the Tongtian River. I wait."

The Great Sage asked, "Did you announce your name?"

"Naturally, I reported the name of the Third Prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea." Xiao Bailong spread his hands and said, "But I don't agree with it."

Bajie couldn't help laughing and said: "It turns out that your name of the Four Seas Dragon Palace is not easy to use in the water. The water god of the Tongtian River may have a long history, otherwise it would not be able to occupy such a wide river." Bajie was talking, but he pointed to the north side, "Oh~ Master, look, why is there someone standing on the shore?"

It was also at night that they couldn't see it clearly, and when everyone walked past, they saw that the Eight Rings was not a person, it was clearly a stone tablet, on which there were three big characters in seal script, and two lines below, there were ten small characters.The three big characters are "Tongtianhe", and the ten small characters are "Across eight hundred miles, few people have traveled since ancient times".

The Great Sage took a look at the turbulent waves, even those with powerful mana didn't have to argue about it, so he said: "Master, it's getting late, why don't you rest for one night and start crossing the river tomorrow, how about it? "

"Good." Fa Hai nodded in response, "Find a place to sleep in the open, and cross the river tomorrow."

Bajie had just walked two steps, when he suddenly raised his ears, he said: "Master, just listen, is there the sound of drums and cymbals? It seems to be someone who is doing vegetarian food, let's go and catch some vegetarian food."

Everyone was about to laugh at him, and they really heard the sound of drums and cymbals, Wu Jing also laughed and said: "Master, it doesn't sound like a Taoist musical instrument, is there a monk's house nearby?"

"Hey." The Great Sage said aside, "How many Taoist temples can there be in the entire Xiniu Hezhou? Although this place is still under the jurisdiction of Chechi Guoyuanhui County, it is almost at the border. Perhaps it is not uncommon to see a Taoist temple. If you go further west , I’m afraid they all believe in Buddhism.”

The crowd came after hearing the sound, and there was no avenue along the way, but all small roads with no high and no low. Over the beach, they saw a cluster of residences. There were about four to five hundred houses, but they also converged into a village.

Fahai looked at it from a distance, and said, "This place is extraordinary. Among the 500 households, more than ten households have received the protection of the Buddha's light, which shows that it is also a place of goodness."

The Great Sage also watched for a while with his Dharma eyes, and said, "Master really has good eyesight, he can tell the difference at a glance."

"In this way, we came to the right place." Bajie smiled and said, "Master, let's go faster, the old pig's belly is empty, he is already hungry."

Leaning on the mountain road, facing the river by the bank.

You can eat mountains by relying on mountains, and you can drink water by relying on water. Although the Tongtian River is wide, there are also many fish. A year cannot be full of storms, and there is always a time when the waves are calm.

It was night, the lights were sparse, the crowds were quiet, and the moon was like a hanging mirror in the sky.After everyone entered the village, they saw a family on the road with banners erected outside the door, bright lights and candles inside, and fragrant cigarettes.

Then I will not go back, it is this family's fate.

Bajie was in a hurry to call the door, and this time he didn't speak Fahai anymore, the Great Sage snuck back Bajie and said, "Idiot, why don't you have a long memory?"

"Oh." Bajie was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Forget, forget, I haven't seen anyone on this road for a long time, and I forgot for a moment that we are ugly and only scare people. If you scare people , I’m afraid I won’t be able to get in.”

Bajie went to invite Xiao Bailong, and said: "Junior Junior Brother, this is a door job, I still have to do it for you."

"Don't worry." Xiao Bailong patted his chest and said: "Just wait for me to knock on the door successfully, then come and call the second senior brother to enter to avoid the wind."

Xiao Bailong tidied up his clothes, went to the door, but saw that the door was ajar, when he was about to knock on the door, he saw a person came out first, and was about to close the door, saw Xiao Bailong outside the door, curious He asked, "Who is your Excellency, and what are you doing in my village?"

"The owner is very polite." Xiao Bailong made a salute first, and then explained the reason: "My five masters and apprentices were going west, and were blocked by a Tongtian River. After hearing drums and cymbals, they heard the sound and came here. Stay overnight, just wait for tomorrow to cross the river."

"I don't know whether your master and apprentice are cultivating Taoism or worshiping Buddha?"

"My master is an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty. I am a lay disciple under my master's sect. I haven't been ordained yet, so I don't pretend to be a monk."

"Eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty?" The owner of the villa was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "It is [-] miles from Dongtu Tang to me. Your master and apprentice really have great perseverance. I don't know where your master is. Please come to the village quickly. Take a rest, don't be negligent."

Seeing his appearance, Xiaobailong thought to himself: It really is a place to worship Buddha.

There were only a few steps away, Xiao Bailong bowed slightly, and let out the master and three senior brothers who were not far away.

The owner of the villa saw the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty at the head at a glance, and said in his heart that he is such a handsome master!

Another glimpse of the three disciples following the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty, his heart trembled, and he exclaimed, "A monster!"

Bajie and Wukong looked at each other, feeling quite helpless.

Fahai stepped forward and recited Amitabha Buddha, and the ray of Buddha's light surrounded the owner of the village, calming him down. Fahai said in a broad voice, "Don't be afraid, the benefactor, he is not a monster, but my disciple. It's just his appearance." It's ugly, but it has been enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva, and it does good deeds."

Guanyin Bodhisattva gives enlightenment! ?
Bajie leaned close to him, shook his ears, and said, "When people see me, they say that I am fat and fat, but I am also ugly and cute."

After Wukong and Wujing saluted the owner, they said in unison: "I have seen the owner."

The owner of the villa was doubtful, and said: "Since this is the case, I invite all the elders to come in and explain."

After entering, the owner of the villa called a servant and asked him to lead the guest room. Wujing and Bajie went to set it up and salute by themselves.

Xiao Bailong took it from the two senior brothers to salute, and said: "Take me there."

Only then did the servant dare to leave.

Going in this way, walking two steps and meeting a few people, they exclaimed in surprise, calling them all the word "monster".

The owner of the village felt a little embarrassed, and said: "We, the villagers, have no experience, and our words are meaningless, and we offended a few elders, so don't blame them."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Bajie laughed and said, "We were also spirits and monsters, and now we practice with Master to get a positive result. If you call out a monster and then go crazy, wouldn't it be a ruin for your practice?"

The owner of the villa nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "The elder is magnanimous."

After entering, there were several monks chanting scriptures in the hall. They had heard the commotion outside, subconsciously glanced back, and saw Bajie who was chatting with the owner at a glance. What kind of appearance is this?
With a long mouth and big ears, a thick body, a broad back and broad arms, the voice is like thunder. I saw the Great Sage and Wu Jing again.

The three disciples were a little innocent, they only blamed these monks for not practicing much, so they messed up the Dharma. But after all, they messed up the Dharma, and they only looked at their master, as if they were waiting for reprimands.

"Not in the way, not in the way." The owner of the village waved his hand when he saw it, and told the monks to disperse, and said to the master and the disciples: "Don't do the business of the three elders, so I turned off the lights, scattered the flowers, and the Buddhist service will be closed. "

"Come here."

The landlord called out.

Then some servants hurried forward to listen.

The owner of the villa ordered: "Clean the hall and invite the elders to sit down. By the way, I don't know if the elders can have the fast meal?"

"Never, never." Bajie said happily after hearing this: "Come to your house with Master, besides lodging overnight, I also want to break my fast."

The owner of the villa also laughed and said: "Since the Buddhist service is over, it's time to set up a full meal, and quickly ask the kitchen to prepare it to entertain the elders."

This manor is a person who often fasts, so he came quickly. Seeing that Ba Jie was already hungry, everyone didn't say much. After thanking the owner of the manor, they broke their fast.

After eating and drinking, we are ready to chat.

Fa Hai spoke first, and asked the owner, "The benefactor's surname is Gao?"

"List."

The Great Sage laughed and said, "Master, we are still in the same family as you."

"Master is also surnamed Chen?"

"The lay family's surname is Chen." Fa Hai nodded, and asked curiously, "Excuse me, benefactor, what kind of meal did you do just now?"

Hearing this question, the owner of the villa suddenly lost the joy on his face, showing a look of sorrow: "It's a pre-retirement fast."

"Practice the death fast?" Fa Hai frowned when he heard this.

The Great Sage also felt that something was wrong, so he asked the master for the root cause: "I always knew that there was a pre-study fast for sending to the warehouse, and a pre-study for filling and returning fast, and there was a pre-study for the death fast? Could it be that if you have not died, you will know your fate soon?"

"Alas—" the owner of the village sighed, unwilling to say more.

Fa Hai pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "The benefactor may have something difficult to say, but since the poor monk has received your fast, just tell me about any difficult things, and the poor monk will certainly not stand by and watch."

"Oh!" The owner sighed again, and led the crowd to one place, pointed to the two memorial tablets above, and said, "The pre-cultivation ritual of the Dead Zhai is for them."

Fa Hai glanced at it, and saw [The position of the youngest son Chen Guanbao] written on one, and [The position of the beloved daughter with a scale of gold] written on the other. The two are still alive, since they are the son and the daughter, why do such rituals? Could it be that they are suffering from some kind of disease? Even if they are sick, they should perform rituals to pray for blessings, relieve disasters, and eliminate disasters."

Seeing the distress of the villa owner, Fayan knew that he had other difficulties, so he said, "Why don't you take Mr. Ling and Qianjin out and ask the poor monk to have a look?"
