Westward Journey into Dragon

Chapter 615 Monkey, where did you die
As mentioned last time, Tang Seng fell into the tiger's lair in Shuangcha Ridge, and was rescued by Taibai Jinxing, who guided the way, and pointed out that there were gods and disciples to help him on the way, so he pulled his horse on the road again.

It is said that the Shuangcha Ridge is really steep and difficult to walk. The frail Tang Monk walked for half a day, but within twenty miles, he felt sore back and hungry, which was really miserable.

When Tang Seng was secretly grieving, he suddenly saw two fierce tigers jumping out in front of him, roaring at him, and several long snakes climbing the mountain behind him, spitting letters and neighing at him.

There is a fierce tiger in front, a poisonous snake in the back, and the trees on the left and right are full of poisonous insects. As a weak monk who has no power to catch chickens, he can only resign himself to fate.

That horse has brute strength, but it was frightened by the tiger's might, its tendons and bones were weak early, and its feces and urine flowed out, so it couldn't be of much help.Tang Seng was really miserable, and he knew he was going to die, so there was nothing he could do.

However, Tang Seng is an indispensable protagonist for learning scriptures. As long as there is a disaster, someone will come to rescue him.Just when Tang Seng felt that he was going to die this time, those poisonous insects, long snakes, and fierce tigers gave up on Tang Seng, a prey full of fat and could live forever if he took a bite, and started to run away.

"It should be Zhenshan Taibao Liu Boqin. It turns out that Liu Boqin is not an ordinary person. He has the blood of the witch clan in his body, so he has extraordinary combat power. The witch's breath is afraid of ordinary monsters, let alone these ordinary beasts!" Chen Xian's heart skipped a beat. , I knew it was Liu Boqin.

Well, as in the plot, when Liu Boqin came, the beasts and poisonous snakes flew away and rescued Tang Seng. Then Liu Boqin chased a tiger with a steel fork to single out, killed it, and took Tang Seng back to his home.

The Liu family entertained him for a while, and invited Tang Seng to perform rituals, which relieved Liu Boqin's father's sins. The ghost dreamed, and the whole family thanked him, and let Tang Seng know that he is really a holy monk.
Everyone knows what happened next. On the second day, Liu Boqin escorted Tang Seng to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain. Tang Seng picked the Tathagata gold stickers and released the monkey. After the master and apprentice recognized each other, they bid farewell to the temporary bodyguard Liu Boqin, and both master and apprentice went to the west.

"This man is so pitiful. He has been crushed by the mountains for more than 600 years, and he has such long hair all over his body. He must have no clothes to wear. It's cold!" Wu Zetian said.

"Pfft!" Chen Xian vomited blood, and said speechlessly, "Didn't Liu Boqin just say that this is a god monkey. Are there any monkeys that don't grow hair?"

Chen Xianyi was following Tang Seng, and when Monkey King beat the six thieves to death and was angered away by Tang Seng, he asked the seventh elder brother to sit with him and let him be a guest for a few days.

Not long after Tang Seng and Sun Wukong were on the road, a tiger jumped out, and the monkey skinned it to make a skirt, and finally covered up the indecent place covered by the poop hair.

Then the monkey led Tang Seng for a day and came to Chenjiazhuang at night. Because Tang Seng was also surnamed Chen, the monkey was very powerful. The 130-year-old Chen warmly entertained the two of them. The monkey took a bath for the first time in more than 600 years. .

The next day, Tang Seng and the monkeys went on the road again. Some monkeys cleared the way, and the little monsters avoided it far away. There were also monkeys carrying burdens, leading horses, and begging for food. After Tang Seng left the border of the Tang Dynasty, he finally ushered in a good day.

Time flies, soon summer will leave, and autumn will come, the red leaves all over the mountains are carved with frost, and the thousand forests are thin because of the leaves falling.

"Six thieves, come out quickly!" Chen Xian was a little bored, but fortunately, there was Wu Zetian nearby who could teach her how to practice, and found a sense of accomplishment.

On this day, Wu Zetian was full of vitality, he succeeded in refining Qi, and successfully established a foundation. After Chen Xian praised him, he passed on the exercises that followed to the Nascent Soul stage and some methods of refining weapons and alchemy, and let her go to experience it by herself.Just let her go to Yong'an City to find herself after the Yuanying Dacheng, and then teach her follow-up exercises.

A few days later, Chen Xian looked at the road ahead of Tang Seng and the others from the cloud, and saw six suspicious figures in the dangerous place they must pass in front of them, and he immediately regained his spirits.

"These six guys with long spears and short swords, sharp blades and strong bows, and evil eyebrows and mouse eyes, they are supposed to see joy, hear anger, nose smell love, tongue taste thinking, desire for opinions, and worry about themselves. The name is so Zen. Could it be the Buddha? From the sect?" Chen Xian thought to himself.

After a while, the Tang monk and his disciples met the six thieves. The monkey spoke unreasonably and angered the two thieves.

The monkey was still as showy as before, standing still and letting the six thieves hack.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang" slashed wildly, and the six thieves lost their strength, so the monkey killed the chicken and took out the golden cudgel with a sledgehammer, beating the six thieves to death.

Tang Seng counted a few words, the monkey was not angry, and jumped somersaults away. Chen Xian smiled slightly, and flew westward on a cloud, just in time to meet the monkey.

"Monkey King?" Chen Xian questioned (pretend).

"You are?" After more than 600 years, the monkey's memory of Chen Xian is also a little fuzzy. In addition, Chen Xian's temperament has changed drastically, and Sun Wukong can't recognize him for a while.

"It's really Seventh Brother, I'm Old Eighth!" Chen Xian said with a smile.

"So it's the eighth brother, where did you come from?" Sun Wukong asked.

"I'm from Nanbuzhou." Chen Xian answered and said, "Just now when I passed by Wuxing Mountain, I wanted to bring a pot of wine to Brother Seven, but Brother Seven was out of trouble and was about to go back. It’s gratifying. Let’s go, my cave is nearby, big brother and the others are here, let’s have a few drinks together!”

The monkey also walked away in anger. Originally, he wanted to go back to Huaguo Mountain, but he just went halfway to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. He happened to see "Jiqiao Jinshoe", and after hearing the allusion of Zhang Liang picking up shoes three times, he broke his promise and became fat again. , He was also chased three times by Tang Monk (killing six thieves, beating the bone spirit, and punishing grass bandits).

Chen Xian just wanted Hou Zi to visit Huaguo Mountain for a while, and then took him to spend time and wine, and invited him to watch a very exciting show by the way.

"Very good!" The monkey has been trapped in the Five Elements Mountain for more than 600 years, and he became a monk when he came out. He ate bran and swallowed vegetables with Tang Monk all the way.

When he arrived in Yong'an City, Chen Xian immediately asked his servants to prepare the best food and drinks. By the way, he asked people to invite the Bull Demon King, Jiao Demon King, Peng Demon King, Lion Camel King, and Macaque King to gather together.

The Bull Demon King, Flood Demon King, Peng Demon King, Lion Camel King, and Macaque King are all bold people, and they are very enthusiastic and chatting. After a while, they chatted with Monkey King very enthusiastically.

Chen Xian quickly arranged the food and wine, and everyone moved to the garden full of exotic flowers and plants, had a meal in a beautiful and picturesque environment, and enjoyed the wine with the wind.

In the middle of the drink, the monkey king suddenly said: "I heard that after Lao Qi got out of trouble, he worshiped a monk as his teacher. What magical powers does this monk teach, why don't you try to show us!"

Sun Wukong was a little surprised, he waved his hand and said: "The monk is an ordinary monk, and the nagging all day is very annoying, and he is delicate, but he can call people, and he will be his apprentice and part-time servant!"

"Lao Qi, you were raised by nature, heaven and earth are your parents, how can you recognize a mortal as your elder, you don't need this master, lest your reputation be ruined, and we will be ridiculed by our fellow monster clan!" said the Bull Demon King.

"Yes, this master cannot be recognized!" Everyone booed.

"However, I promised Guanyin Bodhisattva to protect Monk Tang to go west, and he rescued me from the foot of the Five Elements Mountain. People have no faith, so I don't know what to do. I will continue to protect him later." Monkey King thought for a while. Think backwards.

"Seventh brother, you can't think that way! First of all, we are monsters, not human beings, and we don't need to follow human etiquette. People say that we are demons and tricks; secondly, do you know that Tang Seng It is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of the Tathagata. If the Tathagata oppresses you, and you worship his apprentice as your teacher, don’t you recognize the thief as your father? The most important thing is, in this way, you don’t recognize your enemy as your grandfather? In this way, Zhijiao Where is your great ability in this life?" Chen Xian shouted.

"This..." Sun Wukong held his grudge, and Chen Xian mentioned Tathagata, and was immediately annoyed, and then submitted his own bodhi, making him a generation shorter than Tathagata, which immediately shook the monkey's heart.

"The master-student relationship ranks last in heaven and earth. If there is a king who does not regard the minister as a minister, the minister can not treat the king as the king. This master-student relationship has no relationship between the monarch and the minister. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize it!" The lion camel is king.

Sun Wukong was still a little hesitant, Chen Xian said with a smile: "Let's take a look at the virtues of this master, Brother Seven, and see if he is a master of Brother Seven!"

After Chen Xian finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a picture appeared in front of him, showing Tang Seng's figure.

At this time, Tang Seng was looking around in a daze, alone, nodding his head and sighing to himself, with a sad and resentful expression, and suddenly said: "This guy is so uneducated! I just said a few words to him, but why is he invisible? Going back? Come on, come on, come on! It’s also my fate that I shouldn’t recruit apprentices and enter the population! Now if I want to find him, I can’t find any place, if I want to call him no, go come! Go come!”

"This guy is too pusty, a good boy, how can he be crying and crying!" Bull Demon King said contemptuously.

"Old Qi, this monk also said that he should not recruit apprentices, and he also said that he was entering the population, because he was afraid that he would fail to share his rations? Such a master, you still want to recognize him?" Lion Camel King also said.

"Don't talk, everyone, let's take a look!" Chen Xian said with a smile.

Tang Seng sat there moaning for a while, but had no choice but to pack up his luggage, put it on the horse, and instead of riding a horse, leaning on a tin stick with one hand and holding the rein with the other, he marched desolately westward.

Not long after Tang Seng walked, he suddenly saw an elderly mother in front of the mountain road, holding a cotton coat with a flower hat on it.Seeing him approaching, Tang Seng hurriedly led his horse and stood on the right side to give way.

As soon as the old mother came out, the screen trembled for a while. Chen Xian knew it was Guanyin, and said, "This is a powerful person. The aura has affected the spell of Flower in Mirror, Moon in Water, let's see what he is going to do!"

But the old mother transformed by Avalokitesvara asked, "Where are you an elder, walking here alone?"

Tang Seng said: "The disciple is the one who went to the west to worship the Living Buddha and seek the truth according to the imperial decree of the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Land."

Avalokitesvara's old mother said: "The Western Buddha is on the border of Tianzhu at Daleiyin Temple, and there is a distance of one hundred and eight thousand miles. You are alone, without a partner, and without a disciple. How can you get there!"

Avalokitesvara almost said that monkeys, I came to put a magic spell on him, what about people?Tang Seng sighed: "Disciple, I took in an apprentice a few days ago. He was fierce and stubborn. I said a few words to him, but he didn't want to be taught, so he just left."

Sun Wukong heard that Tang Seng said that he was aggressive and stubborn, his face was full of anger, and his fangs were exposed. Bull Demon King, Jiao Demon King, Peng Demon King, Lion Camel King, Macaque King, and Chen Xian hurriedly told him to calm down and persuaded him to drink.

At this time, I heard Guanyin say again: "I have a straight cotton collar and a hat inlaid with gold flowers. It was originally used by my son. He only served as a monk for three days. Unfortunately, he died shortly. I just went to his temple. After crying for a while, he resigned his master, and brought these two coats and hats as a memory. Elder, since you have a disciple, I will give you these coats and hats."

Tang Seng said: "Accept the gift from my mother; but my apprentice has left and dare not accept it."

Avalokitesvara asked, "Where has he gone?"

Tang Seng said: "I heard a whimper, he went back east."

Avalokitesvara said: "Not far to the east is my home. I must have gone to my home. There is also a mantra in my place called 'The Mantra of Restoration'; also known as the 'Tightening Curse'. You can read it secretly Keep it in your heart, and don’t let anyone know. I will catch up with him and tell him to come back to you, but you wear this hat with him. If he refuses to obey your orders, you just recite this mantra silently. Don’t dare to go any more.”

"Tightening Curse? It is said that after being chanted, this thing can be twisted into twists even if it hits the head with an iron. I don't know if it is true or not?" Chen Xian asked.

"It's true. During the time of the Conferred God, the Huanglong Taoist at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal was caught by this thing and rolled all over the ground in pain. He was caught as a mount and made a lot of fools." Bull Demon King said with a smile. .

"It's a pity that this mantra is secret, so I can't hear it. Otherwise, if I learn it, I will steal the hat and let someone give it to the enemy. When I recite the mantra, it will be cool to blow his head!" King macaque said.

"There are three people who know about this hoop that Tathagata passed on to Avalokitesvara, and Avalokitesvara was passed on to Tang Seng. Whoever wears it will have to pretend to be a grandson when meeting these three people!"

Several demon kings spoke in a hurry, only blushing and thick neck, burning with anger in the chest, and took three gulps of wine.

But it is said that after Avalokitesvara passed the mantra, the Tang monk bowed his head in thanks, and Avalokitesvara appeared in his true form, turned into a golden light, and went east.

Seeing that it was Guanyin Bodhisattva who taught the mantra, the Tang monk hurriedly picked up earth and burned incense, looking east and earnestly worshiping.Come on, put away your clothes and hats, and hide them among the bundles.Sitting on the side of the road, recite the mantra for calming the mind (tightening mantra), and recite it back and forth several times until the recitation is familiar and firmly in mind.

"The Tang monk hid the luggage in the box, he must be planning to plot against Lao Qi. When Lao Qi went to find the box, he saw that he was wearing it. He has a sinister heart and is not a son of man!" the macaque king said.

Sun Wukong didn't say anything, just invited him to drink. He didn't drink well, and he hadn't drank for many years. This was Chen Xian's frightening fairy drunk. He got drunk after a while, and he probably slept for two or three days.

Chen Xian dismissed the mirror with a wave of his hand, called someone to put the monkey aside, and accompanied his five elder brothers to drink.

But Avalokitesvara chased Sun Wukong on the east road, and chased to Huaguo Mountain, but there was no one. She couldn't help being anxious, opened her spiritual eyes, and looked all over the three worlds, but she didn't see monkeys either.

"This dead monkey, I don't know which powerful cave has gone, but I can't find it. This is troublesome." Guanyin frowned, wishing to shout to the sky: "Monkey, where did you die? Did you make it?" , Sister found you so hard!"
