Journey to the West: Don’t mess with that monster

Chapter 96: Xiaodao recites Taoist scriptures every night, and Xiang Liu debates Buddhism during the day

"Are you being more intense? The old Taoist heart is almost broken!" the old Taoist priest said angrily.

"Then you must have a fragile heart." The bowl of meat porridge in Emperor Zhang Qing's hand could not hide his strange aura.

The old Taoist priest was stunned for a moment. He took out his peach wood sword and was about to have a serious PK with Emperor Zhang Qing in the imperial city. In the end, the young Taoist priest persuaded him to go back to the room.

Erhei and the others were all in the backyard. When they heard the movement in the front yard, they didn't react at all. They just thought it was Master Qingdi who was helping the old Taoist priest condense his Taoist heart.

After persuading the old Taoist priest to rest in a quiet room, the young Taoist priest smiled bitterly and said to Emperor Zhang Qing, "Donor Zhang, my master is not a bad person, but our small temple spends a lot of money every year.

That’s why Master takes money more seriously. "

I don't know why Emperor Zhang Qing always looks down upon this little Taoist priest.

"Sure! For your sake, I won't mess with him anymore. Of course, the premise is that he won't mess with me either." Zhang Qingdi said after finishing the meat porridge in one gulp.

How could this little Taoist priest make the decision? He smiled bitterly and said nothing more.

When the master finished the porridge, the little Taoist returned the porridge container to Erhei.

"Second sister, did you see a sika deer last night?" Among these people, the little Taoist's favorite was Erhei.

He felt that this sister was gentle and virtuous, and she was also a good cook.

Erhei shook his head, "I've never seen it before. Do you still raise deer in this temple? I still have some dried deer meat here. Do you want to eat it?"

The little Taoist priest waved his hands repeatedly, "That deer is very spiritual. When I was collecting medicine with the master, I saw it almost being eaten by an evil tiger. After I rescued it, it often came to the temple at night to listen to the master's sermons."

Erhei was slightly surprised and said, "Could this deer have become a monster? Aren't you afraid?"

"There are good and bad demons, and so do people." The little Taoist priest said with a smile. This sentence made Erhei's affection for the little Taoist priest increase a lot.

"I'll tell them later. If they see the deer, they won't hurt it." Erhei said with a smile. "But as for Mr. Qing, you can talk to him yourself."

Erhei felt that he did not have such great respect with Emperor Zhang Qing.

"I talked to Donor Zhang, and he readily agreed." The little Taoist helped Erhei pack away the vegetables before leaving.

When passing by the old monk who was meditating with his eyes closed, he saluted the old monk.

The old monk opened his eyes and nodded to him.

Behind the small temple is a large mountain. At this time, a deer, a tiger and a sheep gather together in the mountain.

"Deer! What did you learn from the old immortal master last night?" The tiger has shiny fur and is the strongest being on the mountain. "Didn't that silly little Taoist give you something delicious?"

"Don't say that about him." Sika Deer said.

"He is indeed stupid. When we first met, I thought the eldest brother wanted to eat you, hahaha." The Aries laughed and interrupted.

If Emperor Zhang Qing were here, he would definitely guess that these three are the future great immortals of Tiger, Deer and Sheep.

"Lu, what did the old immortal master say last night?" Tiger asked eagerly.

"I didn't dare to enter the small temple last night." Sika Deer said in shock.

"What happened?" Aries likes to interrupt.

"A big demon has come to the temple!" said the sika deer.

"Great demon!" Tiger was a little envious, "A great demon in disguise?"

The sika deer nodded, "I couldn't see the base of that banshee, but I still accepted the invitation and felt her demonic aura. It looked very powerful. I just don't know what she was doing in the small temple!"

Sika Deer was a little worried about the pair of master and disciple in the small temple.

"What do you have to worry about?" Tiger said with a smile, "You can feel it, and so can the old god."

Sika deer doesn't think so.

He was rescued by a little Taoist priest. Tiger thought the little Taoist priest was too stupid, so he encouraged him to go to the temple and steal some scriptures.

These three little monsters are the kind of monsters who strive to make progress.

Although his strength is average, he always wants to make progress.

The sika deer promised and prepared to go there in a fool's errand.

As a result, he was discovered by the little Taoist priest as soon as he arrived at the small temple.

"I just figured out that the three of you should be together." The little Taoist priest's eyes were bright when he said this.

The sika deer was too scared to speak, but he asked nonchalantly, "What are you doing here? Are you here to repay your kindness? No! No need!"

The sika deer was so ashamed that the little Taoist priest smiled bitterly and said, "You are not here to do evil, are you?"

The sika deer was in a hurry and said, "We are devoted to the Tao, but we have no way out. We want to learn the Tao scriptures."

The little Taoist priest was surprised when he heard this.

"I told you earlier, but I can't give you the scriptures. If you sincerely follow the Tao, come here every night, and I will tell you what to do!" the little Taoist said with a smile.

The sika deer was moved by the sincerity of the little Taoist priest, and finally had to confess, telling him everything about the tiger asking him to steal the Taoist scriptures.

"Don't do this again. That tiger demon lied to me, so I will lie to him once. Just tell him that Master lectures every night.

Only you can listen, and you can tell the two of them. "

Naturally, the sika deer did not dare to have any objections.

Later, he came to the small temple every night, and the little Taoist priests gave him lectures. If the three of them have any doubts, the little Taoist priest can easily solve them.

It's just that the old Taoist priest's snoring is very noisy every time.

This sika deer has secretly observed the old Taoist priest several times. He is nothing like a master who can teach young Taoist priests.

He finally asked the little Taoist priest, who smiled and said, "Master can support me, which is already very powerful."

"Deer! Why are you so stunned?" The tiger roared dissatisfied. "Either we go and take a look, after all, we are kind to the old immortal.

If they are really in trouble, we will help them.

The old immortal master might really accept the three of us as his disciples. "

"This is a good idea!" Aries didn't have much opinion. Hearing what Tiger said, he immediately cheered.

"Forget it, I'll go take a look at the situation first. If you two go, the old immortal master will think that we are in the same group with the banshee and capture us together." Sika Deer said.

"What you said makes sense." Aries immediately changed his tune.

The tiger demon thought for a while, "That's right. If there is any danger, please come back quickly."

The deer nodded and walked towards the small temple with four hooves.

Emperor Zhang Qing did not provoke the old Taoist priest for a day, and the old Taoist priest did not dare to trouble him.

Everyone was in peace, and the old Taoist priest had a good sleep tonight.

When the little Taoist priest heard the sound of deer hooves, he stood up and opened the window.

"Why didn't you come last night?"

"There's something wrong with these people." Sika Lu said straight to the point, "That woman is..."

"You're talking about Sister Erhei, it doesn't matter what she is.

She is a very nice person and the vegetarian porridge she makes is delicious. "The little Taoist priest said with a smile.

Hearing what he said, Sika Deer whispered, "If you are controlled, just blink."

The little Taoist smiled and reached out to touch the sika deer's forehead.

"Thank you for coming to report. We will be fine. But I won't be able to give you lectures these days."

"Then please pay attention to safety. If there is really danger, run to the back mountain." The sika deer ordered.

Hearing that he could not listen to the sermon, the sika deer was a little disappointed. At this moment, he saw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with a radius of a hundred miles coming into a quiet room.

This sika deer has a good understanding, and now he can at least be angry.

He couldn't help but follow the spiritual energy to find out what was going on. The little Taoist reached out and flicked his head.

"Don't cause trouble," the little Taoist said.

The sika deer shivered and asked, "Is that the banshee?"

"No, Sister Erhei doesn't live there." The little Taoist replied. "Master Qing lives there." Sika Deer doesn't care about Master Qing or Master Lan, but the noise caused by this is too big.

What kind of monster is this?

The sika deer said a few words to the little Taoist priest, then turned and left.

Along the way, his mind was filled with the sounds of Emperor Zhang Qing breathing out his breath.

The little Taoist priest frowned slightly and looked at the departing sika deer.

"I wanted to have a good relationship, but I don't want it to be a bad relationship." The little Taoist stretched his body, and a spiritual energy came towards him.

He thought for a moment and moved his fingers slightly, and the spiritual energy went to the quiet room again.

next day

Erhei prepared meals early in the morning.

"Master, will you come with us to watch the debate?" asked the little toad.

"Isn't debating scripture just a quarrel? What's the point? When did you fall in love with this Buddhist tune?" Zhang Qingdi said and glanced at the old monk.

The old monk who was eating his vegetarian meal paused.

"The main reason is that I heard that there are a lot of snacks outside Hongfa Temple." The little toad said a little shyly.

After hearing what the little toad said, Emperor Zhang Qing said, "Then I will accompany you to watch the monks quarrel."

The old monk smiled and said, "Then let's go and have a look, too."

When they walked out of the small temple, the old Taoist priest and the young Taoist priest were also preparing to go out, wearing brand new Taoist robes.

"Donor Zhang, do you also want to go to Hongfa Temple?" the little Taoist priest took the initiative.

Zhang Qingdi nodded, "You are going too? Aren't the monks quarreling? Could it be that the monks and Taoists are quarreling together? That would be quite interesting."

The old Taoist priest snorted, but he knew that this guy was evil-mouthed and had a vicious heart, so it was best not to provoke him, so he just snorted coldly and made no other sound.

The little Taoist looked at Emperor Zhang Qing with a wry smile.

Mr. Qingdi gave the little Taoist a favor, and the little Taoist said quickly, "The person who is debating scriptures in Hongfa Temple is Master Liubian, a Buddhist monk. Master wants to see the grace of that great master."

"Learn how other people make money?" Zhang Qingdi couldn't help but said.

"Bring me my peach wood sword! I will fight with him today!" the old Taoist priest said violently.

Master Qingdi didn't know him well, but they went to Hongfa Temple separately.

"Master, have you ever heard of the Six Bian Master?" Erhei asked curiously.

The old monk shook his head, but saw Zhang Qingdi's half-smiling look.

He still couldn't help but said, "Do you think Emperor Zhang Qing can know the name of the little demon under Qing Pheasant?"

"There are Hua'er, Xiao Hei, and a fox demon with body odor called Yushu!" Emperor Zhang Qing said with all his treasures. "A female fox with a tear mole at the corner of her eye is called Mei'er, and there is another one with a nice voice called Lingling..."

The old monk was speechless for a while, "Why do you remember the names of those little monsters when you have nothing to do!"

"You said you have nothing to do." Zhang Qingdi curled his lips and said.

There are huge crowds of people outside Hongfa Temple.

The little toad's eyes lit up immediately when he saw those snacks.

Emperor Zhang Qing threw a bag of silver to them, and Little Toad and Erhei went to play happily.

When the remaining monks and two demons arrived at the gate of Hongfa Temple, they were stopped by a young novice monk.

"You can't enter without a greeting card."

Emperor Zhang Qing turned to look at the old monk, "The little demon in Manshanquan dare not stop me."

The old monk really wanted to kill this damn little snake.

Fortunately, Emperor Zhang Qing stopped, "If there is no invitation, what should we do if we want to go in?"

"Give me money!" the young novice said directly.

Emperor Zhang Qing couldn't help laughing when he heard this, gave the money and they entered Hongfa Temple.

"Old monk, don't you care if they do this?"

"What qualifications does the old monk have to take care of it? Now the Buddha doesn't care, so why should I take care of it?" the old monk said calmly,

"It's really too much to ask for money to listen to Buddhism." Zhang Qingdi looked at him and asked.

The old monk said directly, "I think you, little snake, are destined to me. I will teach you Buddhism for free!"

Zhang Qingdi's head shook like a rattle.

Everyone walked into Hongfa Temple, which was the most magnificent temple they had seen along the way.

But the old monk took one look and shook his head slightly.

"There is no Buddha here."

Emperor Zhang Qing looked at the golden Buddha statue of Tathagata in the main hall, and he stopped talking about it.

At this time, Master Liubian in Hongfa Temple was wearing a cassock inlaid with gems. He was holding a five-treasure glazed Zen staff in one hand and a golden alms bowl in the other hand. His disciples were helping to tidy up the cassock.

This person's appearance is a proper eminent monk.

"Have arrangements been made for the person who will debate the scriptures with me?" Liubian asked his disciple.

"It's arranged! After three sentences, he will admit defeat." The disciple said respectfully.

"That's very good." Liu Bian said with a smile. "Amitabha!"

"How many people came today?" Liu Bian asked.

"Two hundred people entered the temple," the disciple said.

Hearing this number, Liu Bian had a bright smile on his face.

The little Taoist priest waved his hand to Emperor Zhang Qing in the distance.

The old Taoist priest said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you greeting him?"

The little Taoist priest smiled helplessly.

Soon the sutra debate began, and the six debaters took the stage as if the Buddha were alive.

Emperor Zhang Qing looked at the cassock on his body and said to the black bear spirit, "If you like it, we can make one too. Don't take other people's."

"Hey! I'm such a monster!" Black Bear Spirit has been following Master Qing for a long time, and now he has finally mastered it. "Then Qing Emperor, please make one for me when you are done. Then the monk can do that."

"Sure." Emperor Zhang Qing always kept his promise.

Liubian and the monk opposite bowed and the debate began.

The sound of Buddha suddenly rang out all around, and the two people on the stage could not hear clearly what they were saying, but soon they saw that the older, fat monk quickly bowed to Liu Bian and performed the disciple's ceremony.

"What did they say?" Zhang Qingdi asked. "I must have spent my money too much."

The old monk looked as usual, "It's really..."

He thought for a long time but couldn't find the right words.

Suddenly, several people in the crowd took the lead in shouting for the holy monk.

People followed suit and saluted one after another.

Emperor Zhang Qing can guarantee that they definitely did not hear clearly.

"Little Snake, go up and argue with him. If you win, I'll teach you a magical move!"

"I have a lot of magical powers." Emperor Zhang Qing said to Qiao.

"Do you want to learn how I use bags to carry heavenly soldiers?" the old monk asked.

"Master, I'm not doing this for magical powers. I just can't bear to see someone blaspheming the Dharma in your heart like this." Emperor Zhang Qing immediately pushed everyone away with righteous words and stepped onto the high platform.
