Journey to the West: Interpretation and Teaching Disciples

Chapter 164

Along the way, everyone had their own concerns and did not tell Xuanzang that Xuanzang was captured by the monster this time. In this way, everyone walked westward all the way again.

Although Zhang Xing felt that it was strange that Xuanzang was caught by a monster this time, but because he joined the team of Buddhist scriptures, which was a change in itself, he didn't think of anything, but what Zhang Xing was a little puzzled about was that Guangmou This is how the monk concealed the investigation from himself and Monkey King at that time.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xing also told Sun Wukong that Sun Wukong was also at a loss, so Zhang Xing could only guess what magic weapon or kung fu method this monk Guangmou had to conceal his aura.

I don't know how many years I have traveled. On this day, a high mountain appeared in front of Xuanzang and blocked the way to the west. Xuanzang saw this high mountain: birds singing wildly in the green bamboo, golden pheasants fighting among the wild flowers.The grass in front of the cliff is beautiful, and the plums are fragrant on the ridge.Dragons sing and tigers roar, cranes dance and monkeys cry.It is the blessed land of Xianshan, just like Langyuan in Penglai.

Seeing this scene, Xuanzang said happily: "National teacher, disciples, we have seen poor mountains and bad waters all the way, and now a mountain with such beautiful scenery suddenly appeared in front of us. Arrived at Lingshan."

Sun Wukong heard Xuanzang's words and said with a smile: "Master, it's still early to reach Lingshan!"

Drifting Monk on the side suddenly asked: "Brother, how far are we from Lingshan?"

"It's far away! It's far away! We have to travel a hundred and eight thousand miles to reach Lingshan!"

When Bajie heard Sun Wukong said that it was so far away, he hurriedly asked: "Brother Monkey, how long will we go?"

Sun Wukong smiled after hearing this: "If Brother Zhang Xian and I can reach these roads in just one day, and the two junior brothers can also reach them in ten days, it's just that Master has to go there in a mortal body, don't think about it! Don't think about it!"

When Xuanzang heard what Sun Wukong said, he said, "Wukong, tell me how long it will take me to reach Lingshan!"

"Master, you have walked from childhood to old age. It may be difficult to go from old to young. But as long as you are sincere and sincere, you will look back to the Lingshan Mountain." Sun Wukong had no choice but to answer when Master asked a question.

"Hehe, the Great Sage understands it!" Seeing Sun Wukong, Zhang Xing said, "Niannian looks back, that is Lingshan." ' I looked at Monkey King in surprise, but I didn't expect that the monkey's understanding is not low.

Xuanzang was also repeating this sentence of Sun Wukong. After hearing Zhang Xing's words, he smiled and said to Sun Wukong: "Seeing Wukong, you really have a destiny with my Buddha!"

At this time, the silent Drifting Monk said again: "Master, look at the scenery among the mountains. Even if it is not a spiritual mountain, it is a good place to go. How about we go and have a rest?"

As soon as Drifting finished speaking, Bajie agreed.Xuanzang hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.So a group of people walked towards the mountain in front of them.

But Xuanzang's luck is really good, there is really a Taoist living here on this high mountain in front of them.The name of this mountain is "Longevity Mountain". There is a Taoist temple in the mountain, named "Wuzhuang Temple".

In this Taoist temple, there is a treasure besides the extraordinary master. This treasure is a spiritual root from the beginning of the world. It is called "Cao Huan Dan" or "Ginseng Fruit".

This ginseng fruit blooms in 3000 years, bears fruit in 3000 years, and ripens in another 3000 years, and can be eaten in a short period of 1 years.It seems that in these ten thousand years, only thirty fruits have been produced.The appearance of the fruit is similar to that of a child under three dynasties, with all four limbs and five sense organs.If a person is predestined, if he smells the fruit, he will live 360 ​​years; if he eats one, he will live 7000 years.

On this day, Zhenyuanzi received an invitation from Yuanshi Tianzun to preach in the Miro Palace in the upper Qing Dynasty.So Zhen Yuanzi took 48 of the 46 disciples to the Miluo Palace in the Qing Dynasty, leaving only the two youngest disciples.One calls for the breeze, and the other calls for the bright moon.

Before leaving, Zhen Yuanzi said to Qingfeng and Mingyue: "You two take good care of the house. I have a friend who is coming over in a few days. You give him two ginseng fruits to show my old love."

Qingfeng Mingyue asked curiously: "Who is Master's friend?"

Zhen Yuanzi said: "He is a holy monk under the leadership of the Great Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Land, his Taoist name is Sanzang, and he is now a monk who goes to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and seek scriptures."

The two boys laughed and said, "The way is different, so we don't conspire with each other. How can Master's friend be a monk?"

Zhen Yuanzi was afraid that the two boys would be ignorant and would neglect his old friends, so he briefly explained the relationship between the two of them, and after finishing his instructions, he left with 46 disciples.

Xuanzang and his party walked up the Longevity Hill slowly. From a distance, Xuanzang saw a Taoist temple not far in front, so the group rushed over to the Taoist temple.

When he came to the gate of the Taoist temple, a stone tablet stood in front of the gate. Xuanzang went up and looked at it, and saw that it said: "Longevity Mountain is a blessed place, Wuzhuang Guantian."

Xuanzang was a little pleased to see this line of words, and continued to walk forward, just in front of Guanmen, and there was also a couplet in front of the gate, "Immortal Mansion of Immortality, and the Taoist family with the same longevity as the sky." Seeing this couplet, Sun Wukong said with a smile: "This Taoist priest has such a big tone!"

"Hehe! Great Sage, you are wrong! This Taoist priest should have such a strong tone!" At this moment, a voice came from behind Monkey King.

"Oh! Brother Zhang Xian, do you know the Taoist priest in this Taoist temple?" Sun Wukong naturally recognized that the voice was Zhang Xing's voice, and asked when he saw him say that.

Nodding his head, Zhang Xing smiled and said, "I've heard of the master of this Taoist temple. This master is a person who existed when the world first opened. His Taoist name is Zhen Yuanzi, and he is known as the ancestor of the earth immortals." Seeing what Zhang Xing said, Sun Wukong was in awe of the viewer, after all, which one of the characters in the beginning of the world is not a great god.

At this moment, two Taoist boys walked out of the gate of the Taoist temple. When the two Taoist boys saw Xuanzang, they asked about his identity. After hearing that Xuanzang was a Buddhist monk from the Tang Dynasty, they brought Xuanzang to the room. take a break.Although Xuanzang didn't understand why the Daotong did what he did, he didn't worry about it.After arranging Sun Wukong, Bajie and Sand Monk to go out to do errands, Xuanzang sat up in meditation, and Zhang Xing followed Monkey King out.

Qingfengmingyue saw that Xuanzang was the only one left in the room. One day, they beat two ginseng fruits with utensils for Xuanzang to enjoy. Unfortunately, Xuanzang didn't recognize ginseng fruit with his naked eyes, thinking it was a child who was not yet full moon and refused to eat it. The two boys had no choice but to eat it by themselves.But all this was discovered by Bajie who was next door, and Bajie didn’t cook anymore. Sun Wukong and Zhang Xing had talked about it earlier. When Zhang Xing saw the stone tablet on the mountain, he knew it was the plot of Wuzhuang Temple Now, I naturally know what will happen next, and Sun Wukong is also a foodie. Hearing that there is a good thing called ginseng fruit, he agreed to Bajie's request and wanted to steal some for his brothers to taste.

Seeing that Monkey King agreed to his request, Bajie also explained in detail how to pick ginseng fruit.Monkey King listened carefully, then took the utensil for picking ginseng fruit and flew towards the ginseng fruit tree.
