Journey to the West: The Evil Monk of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 16 The Baby of Wa Palace
There is no day and night in the nether world, and the gate of hell is broken.

Chen Xuan and the monkey entered the gate of ghosts, and he let the ghostly yin energy pour into the soul, the soul body was like being covered with clothes, and the movements began to have texture, not as ethereal as before.

"Monkey, you said that this body is for the teacher, how is it compared to the one in the yang world?" Chen Xuan moved his new body and felt that it was the same as the yang world, so he asked the monkey curiously.

"It's far away. This body made of Yin Qi has no roots and no basis. It's just a means that the great figures in this world have set up in the gate of ghosts considering the Yin wind to hurt the soul. The body." The monkey said disdainfully.

"But why do I feel the same, and compared to the body of the yang world, this body gives me a feeling that I can coexist with Yin Qi." Chen Xuan gently swiped his hand into the void, closing his eyes to feel the pleasure of blending with the heaven and earth , He felt that he was about to transcend the secular world and be with the heaven and the earth.

"Master, don't be obsessed with it. This is Yin Qi refining your soul. Although this method of Yin Qi transforming your body can prevent Yin wind from hurting your soul, it is easy to get lost. From now on, you can't tell whether Yin Qi is Master or you. Master is yin qi, so master don't let it go." Seeing that Chen Xuan showed signs of getting lost, the monkey quickly gave him a blow to call back his consciousness and re-condense it.

"Um, then let's go to the Hall of Hell." Chen Xuan hurriedly took precautions when he heard this, and secretly cursed in his heart why there are so many ways of ghosts, and he was startled every step of the way. First, he almost suffered the painting wall, and then almost It has become nourishment for yin qi.

"It should have been like this..." The monkey grabbed Chen Xuan's clothes made of Yin Qi, and when he was about to fight to the Hall of Yama, his expression suddenly became hesitant.

"Monkey, what's wrong with you." Seeing the strange look on the monkey's face, Chen Xuan suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Master, let's discuss something." Monkey smiled, put down Chen Xuan's robe, and pulled out the golden cudgel from his ear.

"What do you want to do?" Seeing the monkey pulling the stick, Chen Xuan immediately took a few steps back, while guarding against him, his mind also began to recall, maybe he offended the monkey recently.

"Master, please don't get me wrong. Every time my grandson goes to the Hall of Yama, in order not to cause trouble, he always calls in all the way. Now that I think about it, it may be inconvenient if I take Master with me." Monkey scratched his head embarrassedly, a little She smiled shyly.

Chen Xuan looked at the shy monkey, and really didn't know what to say. Although he knew that the monkey was not easy to serve, he didn't expect such a second majesty, and he began to complain in his heart. Could it be that all the children of Nuwa's mother's family are like this?
"Master, don't look at me like that. Those brats are really annoying. If you follow their procedure, you will have to delay a lot of things." The monkey couldn't help explaining again, feeling uncomfortable being watched.

"It's okay, you've come so many times, they should know you by now, let's be more polite this time, and they will treat you well." Seeing that it had nothing to do with him, Chen Xuan said in relief.

"Master was wrong. Every time the old grandson came, he would greet a gust of evil wind and push across the front of the hall. If those ghost soldiers saw them, if they hid, they would survive; if they rushed forward to show off, they would all turn into flying ashes , so none of those brats recognize Lao Sun." The monkey sighed, looking troubled.

"Then you should also take me as a teacher to ride the demon wind, and it will be fine if you rush over." Seeing the monkey's obedient appearance, Chen Xuan scolded him in his heart. Now that I understand why Journey to the West arranges Drifting Monk, it turns out that professional bodyguards are reliable.

"Master, your body is too weak to withstand my evil wind, so Lao Sun will draw a circle for you here, and wait for the eight big sedan chairs from the little devil to pick you up." The monkey drew a circle for Chen Xuan, Then without waiting for his response, it turned into a streamer and shot towards Yan Luodian.

Seeing the monkey go away, Chen Xuan was so angry, but he looked outside the circle again, and found that the wind was howling, and the Yin energy was fascinated, so for the sake of his own life, he could only wait cross-legged.

While Chen Xuan was waiting, the Dharma protectors also went to the South China Sea, and told Guanyin that Chen Xuan had entered the netherworld. He and others wanted to follow, but were blocked by Lord Yan, and told them that they waited quietly for Guanyin's arrangement.

"Hmph, I didn't expect the witch clan to be so concerned about this matter, and there have been so many changes since the beginning of the journey of learning the scriptures. It seems that we need to discuss with the Buddha again." Guanyin told the group of Dharma protectors to go back, Guarding Chen Xuan's physical body, he himself turned into a streamer and headed towards the Holy Land of Lingshan.

Not long after, she came to Daleiyin Temple. Although this temple is called a temple, it is a world of its own. There are mountains and peaks supported by clouds, springs and waterfalls pouring down into the world, and rivers converging to give life to all spirits. The pavilions are connected by bridges, the golden palace and the jade pavilion are hidden in the clouds. When the precious light is dazzling, there are occasional fairy beasts wandering around. There is also a huge square in the center. The Buddha sits on the reincarnation golden lotus like the scorching sun. , the golden lotus springs up from the ground, and all the Arhats and Bodhisattvas listening to the Tao under it are obsessed with it and cannot extricate themselves.

Avalokitesvara went up to the Buddha and said: "Buddha, there is a change in the journey to the west, please talk privately."

After listening to Guanyin's words, Tathagata stopped the Buddhist singing, waved his hand to signal the crowd to retreat, and said, "My disciple is holding my two spiritual treasures. The power, let alone the danger."

"The danger is not in the body, but in the heart, because reincarnation is difficult to understand, and it is also the rebelliousness of the golden cicada." Avalokitesvara suddenly appeared at the foot of the lotus, flew to the same height as the Buddha and said.

"Hehe, that's right. It's rare and rare to have the great samadhi of non-self Buddhism, but the arrogance of my teaching." Tathagata was not only not annoyed after hearing this, but smiled heartily.

"Senior brother, don't say such things. You and I both know the importance of this trip. The sage has already made plans for this matter. Could it be that letting Jin Chanzi play a small temper will ruin the sage's plan?" Guanyin was a little annoyed when he saw that the Tathagata was casual. Said.

"Don't say what you say, brother. I'm just a big brother intercepting the teaching, not the first disciple to explain the teaching, so don't mention it." Tathagata waved his hand and smiled.

"Red flowers, white lotuses and green lotus leaves, the three sects are originally one family. Why did you say such angry words, the master was also planning for the two saints of the West and misunderstood the Da Zi Zai Tianmo's way? Hasn't this matter been explained in detail?" ?” Guanyin sighed.

"Heh, let's not mention the past. Now that the golden cicada has changed like this, just let it develop. As for the merits of learning scriptures, they will be gathered in one place first, and distributed according to the sage's original design." How much bitterness is there?

"Forget it, it's just that Jin Chanzi made another request. He wants a treasure that locks the demon, and is willing to cross the demon all the way." Guanyin saw that the arrangement was reasonable, so he told the Buddha about Chen Xuan's broken story.

"It's rare to have a heart. Firstly, his thoughts are in line with my Buddhist teachings, secondly, they are also in line with my teaching teachings, and thirdly, they are also flattering Nuwa Empress. There is absolutely no reason to refuse." Tathagata's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he felt This apprentice is not simple. Not only did he not get lost in the reincarnation of the tenth life, but he also made a lot of progress in his xinxing.

"Since the senior brother has arranged it this way, then it's settled. Anyway, the sage said in Zixiao Palace that if there is any change in the matter of obtaining the scriptures, you will be the one to get the degree." After Guanyin finished speaking, she asked to resign and return to Na Nanhai.

"Let's go slowly, you hid the treasure I gave to my apprentice, don't you plan to do your best to practice the treasure of locking demons?" Tathagata suddenly thought of something, and asked Guanyin with a smile.

"How dare you shirk, I will search for the materials for practicing treasures carefully, please don't worry about it." Guanyin was a little ashamed and angry when he heard this, and then thought that there was still an old dragon that needed to be beaten, so his eyes flashed brightly, Drive away with a cloud.
