Chapter 376 The Monkey General

Zhang Xingye rolled up his sleeves, and the Qiankun in his sleeves took away the scorpion spirit.

"System, copy."

Zhang Xingye threw a copy at Sun Wukong. He didn't go out for a while, so he kept saving up opportunities to copy. Now that he met Sun Wukong, he just used them all.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the seventy-two skills of Earth Evil: Sitting on Fire, Tongyou, Carrying Mountains, and Transformation. Whether they are integrated or not. ]
"Yes."

It has to be said that with this frequency of replication, sooner or later, Zhang Xingye will be able to obtain the complete seventy-two earth evil techniques from Sun Wukong.

"Great Sage, I have subdued this demon. Then I will take the first step."

Naturally, Sun Wukong had no problem and watched Zhang Xingye leave.

Sun Wukong rescued Tang Sanzang and continued his journey westward.

Traveling westward, the four masters and disciples of Tang Sanzang came to a pavilion in front of an unknown town.

Inside the pavilion is a humanoid monkey statue wearing armor. Due to the age, the inscription on the pavilion can no longer be seen clearly.

Sun Wukong came to the pavilion and stood next to the statue. Zhu Bajie took one look at the statue and Sun Wukong, and immediately began to flatter him.

"Brother Monkey's reputation spreads far and wide, and even here there are people enshrining him in statues."

Sun Wukong had no choice but to say, "You idiot, look carefully. This statue has existed for at least a hundred years. Hundreds of years ago, I, the old grandson, was still under the Five Fingers Mountain.

If my old grandson guessed correctly, he should be one of the four monkeys in the world of Na Lao Shizi, just like my old grandson. "

At this moment, at the Maitreya Buddha Dojo in Xuedou Mountain, the Ape Monkey and the Yellow-browed Ancestor are doing the afternoon class.

"Then the Buddha told Shariputra: I am speaking to you now. Listen with all your heart, Shariputra. The four great waters of the sea gradually decreased by three thousand leagues. At that time, the land of Jambudvipa was ten thousand leagues long and eight thousand leagues wide. It was as flat as The mirror, famous for its flowers and soft grass, covers its land, and all kinds of trees are luxuriant with flowers and fruits. The trees are all thirty miles high. The cities are as small as each other, and chickens fly to each other. The life span is 84,000 years, with wisdom, majesty, virtue, color, and power, stability and happiness. , there are only three diseases, one is convenience, the second is diet, and the third is aging. A woman should get married when she is five hundred years old..."

As the sound of chanting gradually faded away, the monkey suddenly had a sudden impulse and sneezed.

"Ah!"

Maitreya Buddha and the Yellow-browed Ancestor stopped. The Yellow-browed Ancestor looked at the Ape with concern, and Maitreya Buddha frowned slightly at the Ape.

"Huang Mei, you go out first, I will talk to your junior brother alone."

Huangmei Ancestor exited the room, closed the door, and hid on the window sill to eavesdrop.

Maitreya Buddha waved his hand to isolate the inside and outside, "Three-armed ape, do you know the four monkeys in the world?"

The monkey nodded, "Of course, the red-breasted horse monkey, the six-eared macaque, the monkey, and the bright stone monkey.

And the disciple is none other than the Tongba monkey, and the one who is going to the west now to obtain Buddhist scriptures is the Lingming Stone Monkey. "

Maitreya Buddha was noncommittal, "Yes, but the red-breasted horse monkey was suppressed when Dayu was controlling the floods. He was rescued by Zhang Ziyang a few days ago and was freed.

The red-breasted horse and monkey have been trapped for many years, but once they are freed, they are considered enlightened.

The six-eared macaque is now young, does not distinguish between good and evil, right from wrong, and does not know what the future will hold.

The Lingming Stone Monkey escorted Tang Sanzang on his journey to the west. Once the journey to the west was completed, he would become enlightened.

In other words, among the four monkeys in this world, there are only you and the six-eared macaque, and their future is unknown. "

The monkey was not happy when he heard that Sun Wukong could attain enlightenment after obtaining the scripture.

The monkey unconsciously recalled the past, and Sun Wukong and others also learned about the past of the monkey from the people.

Once upon a time, demons and ghosts were raging here. After learning about it, the monkeys came here to subjugate the demons.

After the emperor learned about it, he conferred the title of Monkey General on the Monkey King, and the people even built a statue for the Monkey General here and worshiped it sincerely.

However, the Monkey General didn't know that there was a bird fairy that was watching him silently when he was going on an expedition.

Until one year, a severe drought occurred here, and heavy snow fell in winter.

In order to accompany the monkey general, Quexian was unwilling to go south to escape the cold.

The monkey general couldn't bear the suffering of the people, so he asked the bird fairy to take away the gold foil from his body to save the people.

In the view of the monkey, there was a drought and snow disaster that year. In the end, only his golden body was gone, and only his best friend Quexian died.

Sun Wukong and others were moved by the story of the monkey, and even felt pity for the bird fairy's sincere friendship.

Maitreya Buddha looked at the monkey who had finished his memory and reminded him, "Do you know why you are still half Buddha and half immortal?"

The ape put his hands together in front of Maitreya Buddha and said, "I don't know, please master."

Maitreya opened the door and led the monkeys to the melon field, "Go and pick the watermelon you think is the sweetest."

Not understanding what he meant, the monkey stepped into the melon field, found the best-looking watermelon, and presented it to Maitreya Buddha.

Maitreya Buddha looked at the watermelon in the hand of the monkey, "Are you sure?"

The monkey became more and more confused, "Isn't the watermelon more beautiful and delicious?"

Maitreya Buddha did not answer. He entered the melon field and picked up an ugly watermelon.

Maitreya Buddha took the monkey and the watermelon he picked to the stone table next to the melon field.

Maitreya Buddha cut into two watermelons and said, "Monkey, come and have a taste."

After carefully tasting the two watermelons, the monkey had to admit that the watermelon chosen by Maitreya Buddha was more delicious.

Maitreya Buddha pointed at the two watermelons and said calmly, "The appearance is the calamity you cannot escape. Go and copy the scriptures, five hundred times."

The monkey ate the watermelon and left the melon field. After the monkey left, Zhang Xingye appeared in the melon field, picked up the ordinary-looking watermelon, and took a bite.

"It's really sweet. The Buddha from the east is so happy."

Maitreya clasped his hands in front of Zhang Xingye, "I have seen this fellow Taoist, but my disciple has no idea that a disaster is coming.

He also asked Taoist friends to help him overcome the difficulties. Get enlightenment as soon as possible. "

Zhang Xingye took a bite of the watermelon carelessly, "What good do I get?"

Maitreya took out the human race bag and handed it to Zhang Xingye, "This is the deposit, and I will give you a big thank you after everything is done."

Zhang Xingye nodded, "The deal is done."

When the thong-brachial monkey copied the scriptures, he felt restless and thinking.

Let’s leave aside the red-faced macaque and the six-eared macaque.

Compared with the Lingming Stone Monkey, he has been practicing for a longer time and has accumulated more merits.

But why did he need to continue to practice hard to achieve enlightenment? Sun Wukong obviously made a huge mistake, but he only needed to accompany a mortal to the West to obtain scriptures to become a Buddha.

What Sun Wukong can do, he can do as well.

The more the monkey thought about it, the more angry he became. He didn't know that the black energy was lingering around him, and a disaster was imminent.

Large areas of ink stains stained the pages of the book, and the monkey realized it later and hurriedly tried to remedy the problem.

After tearing off the page, Sun Wukong's face appeared on the page, making faces at him.

"Just a little bit, I can become a Buddha by studying scriptures in the West. If you want to become a Buddha, you are still far away!"

The Viper's anger surged, and he soon realized that the Yellow-browed Ancestor was joking with him.

"Brother! I'm not in the mood to play."

Ancestor Huangmei jumped out of the book, "But are you happy now?" The monkey was at a loss for words, and Ancestor Huangmei continued, "Master and disciple Tang Sanzang need someone to embarrass them as a disaster.

The mounts of Bodhisattvas and gods are all descending to earth to occupy land and become kings. Why don't we also go and make things difficult for them? "

The monkey suddenly became interested, "Good idea, let's go."

The four masters and disciples of Tang Sanzang passed through an unknown town and continued on their way, trekking through mountains and rivers for many days.

On this day, Tang Sanzang was sitting on horseback and suddenly saw a temple in the distance. The plaque on the lintel of the temple said Leiyin Temple.

Tang Sanzang ignored the word "小" next to Leiyin Temple. If this word appeared, then the name of the temple would be Xiao Leiyin Temple.

Tang Sanzang approached Xiaoleiyin Temple and looked at the solemn and solemn temple in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in his heart.

After careful calculation, Tang Sanzang found that the Eighty-One Difficulties had not yet been completed, and he was filled with doubts.

But Tang Sanzang had made an oath in his early years - to worship the temple when he saw it, so he decided to step into Xiaoleiyin Temple and pay homage to the Buddha there.

The four masters and disciples walked into Xiaoleiyin Temple. On both sides, the Arhats sat down and the Bodhisattva appeared.

Sun Wukong recalled carefully and found that there was almost no difference between this place and the Great Leiyin Temple in his memory.

Tang Sanzang knelt down and worshiped Tathagata Buddha devoutly, "Disciple Xuanzang pays homage to my Buddha."

However, he did not realize that the Tathagata Buddha enshrined in this small Leiyin Temple was actually dressed as a monkey.

In order to cause trouble for Sun Wukong, the monkey used his magical power to turn him into Tathagata Buddha.

As a disciple of Maitreya, the Buddha from the east, the Tathagata has naturally seen the real Tathagata Buddha and entered the Great Leiyin Temple.

Therefore, the Little Leiyin Temple in front of Tang Sanzang can be said to be the same as the real Big Leiyin Temple.

The thong-armed ape pretends to be Tathagata Buddha and sits on the lotus platform with a solemn expression.

At this moment, Xiaoleiyin Temple seems to be the end point of Buddhist scriptures in the West and the place of Tathagata Buddha.

Sun Wukong suddenly realized something was wrong. With his sharp eyes, he could tell at a glance that this Tathagata Buddha was fake.

Sun Wukong helped Tang Sanzang, who was paying homage, and said, "There is something wrong, master. There is something wrong with this Tathagata Buddha."

Tang Sanzang was shocked when he heard this. He looked up and saw Sun Wukong's expression was serious, and he didn't seem to be faking it.

Although he was confused, he still chose to believe in his apprentice.

Sun Wukong asked the monkey, "Let me ask you, what is the reward Tathagata Buddha promised me after I go west?"

When the monkey saw this, he felt helpless. It was certain that Tathagata Buddha promised Sun Wukong to become a Buddha.

But if that's all, why would Sun Wukong ask again?

Seeing the silence of "Tathagata Buddha", not only Sun Wukong saw the clues, but others also felt something was wrong.

Sun Wukong took out the golden cudgel from his ear and smashed it against the monkey.

The monkey knew that things were going to be revealed, so he stopped pretending. He revealed his true form, and a thin sword appeared in his hand to block Sun Wukong's blow.

Sun Wukong was startled when he saw the true form of the monkey, "Are you the great monkey general, monkey?"

The monkey did not refute, and admitted generously, "Yes, I am the monkey. My master came from the east to be the Buddha."

Ancestor Huangmei got off the futon on one side and said, "Yes, our brothers and sisters are here just for you, Sun Wukong.

Let's make a bet, if you, Sun Wukong, can crack this Jinba, then we will leave.

If you, Sun Wukong, can't live without this Jinba, then my junior brother, the Monkey King, will pretend to be you and go to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. "

Huangmei Patriarch said as he took out Maitreya's Jinba and threw it to the ground. When it hit the ground, the Jinba grew wildly and in the blink of an eye, it went from the size of a palm to the size that can accommodate a person.

Sun Wukong looked at the raptor holding the rapier, "Are you sure?"

The monkey nodded, "Of course."

Sun Wukong and the Ape retracted their weapons at the same time, and the Yellow Eyebrow Ancestor made a patch, "In order to prevent you from cheating, we have to set a time.

If you, Sun Wukong, cannot leave Jinba within seven days, you will be considered a loser. How about that? "

Sun Wukong was full of confidence, "Of course!"

Ancestor Huangmei cast a spell to open the golden lattice, and Sun Wukong jumped into it. Ancestor Huangmei immediately closed the golden lattice.

Sun Wukong looked at Jin Ba without realizing the seriousness of the problem. He took out the golden hoop and smashed it hard.

"Dang! Buzz..."

When the stick fell, the golden cudgel made a loud noise without breaking the golden cudgel.

The violent shaking sound made Sun Wukong feel dizzy.

The Yellow-browed Ancestor and the Thread-armed Ape looked at each other and smiled, then started singing and dancing, "Oh la la la..."

Sun Wukong came to his senses and ordered the golden hoop to be extended, first upward. The golden hoop pushed the top of the golden hoop all the way into the sky and came to the Lingxiao Palace.

The Jade Emperor looked at the sudden appearance of Jin Ba and said softly, "My dear friends, the four masters and disciples of Tang Sanzang are in crisis again."

The voice was soft, but it echoed in the hall, and several expressions immediately changed slightly.

Sun Wukong saw that he could not move upward, so he ordered the golden cudgel to move downward.

The golden cudgel went all the way down to the underworld and all the way to the eighteenth level of hell, but it still couldn't penetrate Jinba.

Sun Wukong took back his golden cudgel and shouted, "Idiot, go to heaven for help!"

Zhu Bajie told Monk Sha, "Junior Brother Sha, protect the master. I will come as soon as I go."

Zhu Bajie came all the way to Nantianmen, but the four heavenly kings did not stop him and allowed Zhu Bajie to enter the Lingxiao Palace.

Zhu Bajie entered the Lingxiao Palace and bowed to the Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, "See the Great Heavenly Lord."

The Jade Emperor opened his eyes and said, "I know your purpose of coming. Dear friends, if you are interested in going to help, then go ahead."

The Twenty-eight Stars, the Eight Immortals of Shangdong, the Fire Dexing Lord, the Water Dexing Lord, Six Ding Liujia, the Turtle and Snake generals and the five great dragons, Prince Xiao Zhang and the four generals.

A group of immortals followed Zhu Bajie to Xiaoleiyin Temple. At the same time, one of the Five Fang Jiedi who was responsible for monitoring Tang Sanzang also received the news.

The five directions of enlightenment and the eighteen protective Jialan came one after another and met Zhu Bajie halfway.

We all headed to Xiaoleiyin Temple. When we arrived at Xiaoleiyin Temple, Wufang Jiedi and Protector Jialan all recognized Jinba and the Ape.

However, adhering to the concept of business matters, the Five Directions Revealed Truth and the Protector Jialan pretended not to know the Ape.

A group of gods and Buddhists showed their magical powers to Jinba, but Jinba remained intact.

The thong-armed ape and the Yellow-browed Ancestor laughed non-stop on the side, "Hahahaha..."

At this moment, Sun Wukong thought of a person, "Idiot, go to Tiantai Mountain to invite Zhang Ziyang!"

Zhu Bajie did not doubt that he was there, so he rode the clouds to Tiantai Mountain and asked Zhang Xingye to come to the rescue.

A kind of immortal god had nothing to do with Jinba. During the brainstorm, Sun Wukong thought of Zhang Xingye.

But it's not Zhang Xingye, but the diamond in Zhang Xingye's hand.

Both Jinba and Vajra are indestructible. It can be said that the tip of a needle is against the wheat.
