Chapter 493 Sanzang Fishing and Law Enforcement on Thorny Ridge
The master and his disciples walked all the way and came to an open space on the third day when the Golden Crow was setting in the west. There was a stone pavilion on the road with the words "Bramble Ridge" engraved on it. There were also two lines of fourteen small characters on it, "The thorns climbed eight hundred miles. Since ancient times, there have been roads less traveled by.”Now that Bajie has raked a road out of this difficult place, he was naturally relieved, so he added two sentences below: "From now on, Bajie can break through, and the road to the west is completely flat!"

When Wukong saw Bajie being so proud, he came over and said a few words: "Idiot, you can't find the merit monument, so I specially made a note here for myself, so that I can ask for credit from the Buddha when I get to the West."

Bajie waved his sleeves, and the two brothers started playing around again.

He originally planned to rest here, but Bajie insisted on moving forward. He planned to take advantage of his interest and simply cross the thorny ridge. If he went over this hard, it would probably take some time.Seeing that Bajie's words made sense and that Bajie had to do his part here, the four masters and disciples continued on their way.

After walking for another three days and three nights, we came to an open space with an ancient temple in the middle.

Seeing the ancient temple, Bajie slapped his thigh fiercely, came to Wukong's side and muttered in a low voice: "Brother, I'm afraid we may get into trouble."

Wukong was puzzled and asked: "What do you mean by this?"

Bajie explained: "Brother, this place is called Thorn Ridge. Although there are traces of the road under the ridge, it is also blocked by thorns, probably to prevent passers-by from going up the mountain. Now there is an ancient temple here, which shows that this place was once prosperous. , it is so dilapidated now, I am afraid that there are evil spirits trapped here, and I am worried that people will disturb it, so I have laid layers of thorns. Now that we are here and have broken the thorns, I am afraid that the layout will be ruined."

While they were talking, an old man came out from behind the temple door, carrying a ghost angel with a dough on his head behind him. He claimed to be from the local land. He learned that Wukong was here and came to receive him.

For the old man's arrival, the four masters and apprentices were not surprised, Wukong and Bajie continued to discuss in a low voice, Drifting was there to pack his luggage, and Sanzang sat quietly and recited scriptures.

Seeing that the four masters and disciples did not take him seriously at all, they took the old man and turned it into a gust of cold wind. With a cry, they picked up the elder.

When this happened, the disciples did not panic at all. They only heard Wukong say: "Master is a little bored along the way and wants to have some fun."

When the heavenly protector heard this, he didn't know what to say.

Besides, Sanzang was carried by the old man and the ghost to a hazy stone house. He was respectful and showed no trace of evil spirit.He also gave an explanation for the abduction of Sanzang: "Don't be afraid, holy monks. We are not evil people, but the eighteen princes of Thorn Ridge. Because of the clear wind and clear moonlight, I specially invite you to meet friends to talk about poetry and entertain your feelings. Ear."

Sanzang didn't refuse, and looked around at the scenery. It didn't look like an ordinary fairy cave, but more like a fairyland, but this fairy was somewhat evil.

The old man claimed to be the Eighteenth Duke of Jinjie, and then invited three friends, Guzhi Gong, Lingkongzi, and Fuyunsou. When Sanzang asked them how long they lived, each of them recited poems and responded. Firstly, it shows that he is also an elegant person and will not pose any threat to Sanzang; secondly, he shows that he has practiced cultivation for thousands of years and is also a person with profound algorithmic skills; thirdly, he shows that he is high-minded and upright, and secretly conceals his identity.

Sanzang pretended not to hear this and continued to accept the flattery of these monsters.Since leaving the Tang Dynasty, he has lost many titles and has rarely been so praised by others.Especially when he was suddenly arranged to seek Buddhist scriptures when he was in high spirits, if he hadn't remembered the past, had the power to protect himself, and had God's mercy on him, this journey would have been doubly useless.

Therefore, Sanzang followed the wishes of these monsters and continued.

After talking about their life experiences, the four monsters began to interrogate Sanzang about his origins. When they learned that he was an eminent monk who had been practicing since childhood, they naturally refused to let him go easily and asked Sanzang to explain Zen to them.

Then Tripitaka said: "Zen is about tranquility, and Dharma is about attaining enlightenment. The attainment of attainment in tranquility cannot be achieved without enlightenment. ... I originally practiced the Great Enlightenment Zen, and only when I have the destiny and ambition can I remember enlightenment."

After all, Tripitaka has attained Taoism, and the Dharma he taught attracted the four demons to worship him. However, the demons are still demons, and the method they practice is different from Sanzang. Fuyunsou even refuted Tripitaka, saying that China is already the source of Taoism, so there is no need to obtain Buddha's fruit. I'm afraid I'm wasting my straw sandals and bamboo baskets to fetch water.In this regard, Sanzang just smiled and said nothing. He couldn't say that he had an unofficial position, unlike you, who had difficulty in establishing a staff.

The four demons did not embarrass Sanzang too much, and invited Sanzang to drink tea in the small nunnery, and the name of the small nunnery was "Mu Xian'an".After sitting down one by one, Sanzang began his fishing operation.

First, he used the beautiful scenery here to express his loyalty by saying, "The Zen heart is as clear as the moon and dustless", and then the four demons followed up with the next sentence.It’s just that the following verses have nothing to do with Zen. They are more like showing off their own style, or in other words, they are deliberately messing with Sanzang’s mind.

When Sanzang saw that the fish was biting the hook, he also changed his style when continuing the last sentence. With the sentence "Yan Huai is unrestrained and full of spring", he threw the fishhook further and began to let out a longer line.

The four demons mistakenly thought that Sanzang had been deceived by them, so they started to write poems again.

The four demons had a round of internal debate, but they still praised themselves vaguely and said how noble their qualities were.This made Sanzang a little unhappy, so he wrote a poem, but it was just to explain what he did, and at the same time, he also secretly said that he had an internal organization.However, the four demons did not understand the truth. They just thought that Sanzang was showing off his life experience, so each of them sang a song and praised themselves crazily. Every line of the words explained his immortal spirit, noble character, and full of arrogance and paranoia.

After hearing this, Sanzang already knew that these goblins could not stay.In today's environment, no matter what kind of life, it is allowed to seek immortality. However, those who are paranoid about their own way like these four demons will definitely go astray in the future.Moreover, he himself saw a lot of karma in these fairies.

So Sanzang started to play hard to get, saying that it was getting late and his disciples were still waiting for him, so he wanted to go back.The four demons would definitely not allow it. At this moment, two girls in green clothes lit up lamps and led a fairy holding an apricot flower to come.Seeing this fairy, Sanzang guessed that the real master had finally appeared.

This woman called herself Xingxian, and said that she heard that there was a distinguished guest here, so she came to visit.First served tea, Sanzang pretended to take a sip, and then put down the magnetic bowl; then he said that he wanted to take advantage of this good time to ask for a good sentence, and then recited a poem.The content of the poem is quite different from the previous four demons. If it was only the four demons who were praising themselves before, then this poem is extremely abnormal.

Xingxian wanted Sanzang to compose a poem for this purpose, but when Sanzang refused, he even approached Sanzang step by step, as if he was trying to persuade Sanzang.The four demons are beginning to reveal their true colors, and they bluntly say that they want to be matchmakers between Sanzang and Xingxian to make this marriage happen.

At this time, Sanzang felt that he could pull back the thread, so he refused righteously and angrily denounced them all as evil beings. Seeing that Sanzang was so "ignorant", the ghost said bluntly that if he didn't marry Xingxian, he would eat him.

While all the demons and demons were clamoring and arguing, Sanzang calmed down the whole audience with a Buddha's name.

"Everyone, Sanzang came here today just for fun, and also to see why there are no wild animals in the thorny thorns on all sides of the thorny ridge. Now it seems that the situation in the thorny ridge has something to do with you."

"You practice Taoism and I practice Buddhism. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has been going on for a long time. If you stop me, I have nothing to say. It's just another argument. After this point, you continue to cultivate your Tao and I will continue to take it. My sutra is enough; whether it leads me to indulge in pleasure or wants to undermine my practice, it is just a dispute over ideas, but the means are not very bright, and there is nothing wrong with that."

"It's just that I have seen a few people who are burdened with karma. They don't look like good people, and their actions are no different from bandits. In the final analysis, they are just monsters who occupy mountains and robbers. No matter what they are, no matter how much people praise them, what they do is inappropriate. His moral integrity is not much better."

"Amitabha Buddha, on this beautiful occasion, is suitable for reciting poems and composing poems, but a poor monk wants to succumb to demons here, so it can be considered a grand scene."

After saying that, the Buddha's light overflowed from Sanzang's body, and a Dharma image appeared behind Sanzang.With a wave of his hand, all the evil spirits were dispersed, leaving only a stone cliff.

When the Xingxian was about to die, he murmured: "Oh, the rumors have misled me. This Tang Monk is actually a true Buddha."

After the demon subduing was over, Sanzang sat on the edge of the stone cliff and meditated and chanted sutras.

At dawn, Wukong and the three of them came here.Wukong looked at Muxian Temple on the stone cliff and saw some trees beside the stone cliff. He already guessed what kind of monster he met last night.

So he encouraged Bajie to push down some trees on the edge of the cliff. Bajie understood what he was thinking, picked up a rake, and built arches together. Several trees fell to the ground, with blood dripping from their roots.Seeing this, Bajie shouted to Wukong: "Brother Monkey, I really made you guess, these trees are goblins."

When the tree fell down, it was no longer a matter of time, and the master and apprentice continued on their way.

On the way, Wukong asked Sanzang: "Master, what happened last night, can you tell us?"

Sanzang smiled and agreed. After all, he had an addiction to reciting poems and writing poems last night, so he naturally wanted to share his talent with his disciples.

"Okay then, I will tell you something, Master..."

……

In the void, Ye Longfei stared at the chessboard in front of him, undecided, reluctant to make a move.

Bibi Dong, who was on the opposite side, said: "I'm talking about Xiao Fei, I'm reciting poems, not playing chess. Isn't it too casual for you to just do it?"

Ye Longfei replied without raising his head: "That's not a good idea. It's hard to find someone who can recite poems correctly, especially those who are self-composed. Nowadays, everyone likes 'Wenzhao Gong'. There is nothing self-created, at most they are adaptations." "If you look at the tree monsters, it's even harder to find them. In my impression, most monsters are animals, and there are very few plants."

While speaking, Ye Longfei had a flash of inspiration, thought of something, bit Bibi Dong's face, and ran out happily, arriving at the river of time. A Pearl of the World appeared in his hand, and he murmured: "Although " "Si Teng" is also very good, but I haven't read it. When it comes to plants, this one has to be famous."

Speaking of throwing the Pearl of the World into the river of time, Bibi Dong came over, snuggled into Ye Longfei's arms, and asked in a low voice: "What did you choose this time?"

Ye Longfei replied softly: "Plants that can kill zombies."
