Chapter 108 Try Zen, it's hard to walk
It is said that after Tang Sanzang accepted the three disciples of Sha Monk in the Liusha River, the four masters and apprentices continued to move towards the Leiyin Temple in the west.
Guanyin, Manjushri, Puxian and Lishan's mother decided to try the determination of the Tang monk and apprentice to learn the scriptures in the west. This was not only because of the original Tatha's order, but also because Muzha returned to the South China Sea and said a lot of bad things in Guanyin's ear.
Lishan's mother turned into a beautiful woman, and the three Bodhisattvas Guanyin, Wenshu and Puxian turned into three stunning girls, transforming a manor on the only way of Tang monks and apprentices, waiting for their arrival.
The four left Tang monks and apprentices to entertain them. During the dinner, they revealed the intention of recruiting their son-in-law from them. Tang Monk naturally refused. Sun Wukong was not interested at all, and Sha Monk was also indifferent. Only Zhu Bajie's face was pale. He had guessed that the four mother and daughter in front of him were extraordinary. After all, he had Taiyi Jinxian. Later cultivation has been able to vaguely sense the strangeness of the four mother and daughter. He guessed that it should be a Buddhist, but he was bold and planned to take advantage of it.
So when he woke up the next day, the noble villa disappeared, and there was only a forest. When Tang Monk, Sun Wukong and Sha monk woke up, they heard the wailing of Zhu Bajie in the forest. They rushed over and found that Zhu Bajie was hanging between the two trees and kept asking for help in a loud voice.
Sun Wukong naturally laughed, and Monk Sha's face turned red, and only Tang Seng announced a Buddha's name.
There was a simple post hanging on the tree, and the Sha monk took it and handed it to the Tang monk. It said: Li Shan's mother is not extraordinary, and Nanhai Bodhisattva, please go down the mountain. Puxian Wenshu is a guest and turns into a beautiful woman in the forest. The holy monk is virtuous and non-vulgar, and the eight precepts without meditation are even more extraordinary. From now on, you have to calm down and change your mind. If you neglect the road, it will be difficult!
Tang Monk still didn't understand that the four sacred people were testing the Zen hearts of their masters and disciples at this time.
Sha Monk and Zhu Bajie, who experienced this matter, are naturally much more clever. After all, after seeing the means of Guanyin and other great magical people, they are much afraid and dare not slack off at all.
The master and apprentice walked for more than half a month and came to the five villas of Wanshou Mountain. It coincided with the absence of Zhen Yuanzi, but he had already ordered the left-behind Qingfeng Mingyue to entertain the Tang monk and his apprentice, and beat the two people to taste the Tang monk.
This ginseng fruit, also known as Cao Huan Dan, is the spiritual root that existed at the beginning of the sky. Zhen Yuanzi, who was born with the earth book in his arms, was born under it.
The ginseng fruit tree is the earthen spirit root in the congenital five elements spiritual root, which is the top congenital spiritual root, and its level is no different from the four major lotus flowers.
This tree blooms in 3,000 years, bears fruit in 3,000 years, and can only mature in another 3,000 years. After ten thousand years, it will only get 30 fruits. This mortal can live 360 years old and eat one that can live 47,000 years. Its preciousness is far more precious than the peach in the heavenly court. Every time Zhenyuanzi has a good Taoist friend who visits, he will always treat him with this fruit.
It's just because the ginseng fruit is congenital and the five elements are afraid of each other. This fruit falls when it encounters gold, withers when it encounters wood, melts when it encounters water, scorched when it encounters fire, and enters when it encounters soil. When knocking, it must use a gold ware to knock it down.
The two people took two ginseng fruits like babies in the three dynasties to enjoy. Tang Sanzang's naked-eyed mortal fetus, and the unknown rare innate fruit refused to stop.
But Xia Bing, who was hidden in the dark, couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said secretly, "Poor I have been in the wilderness for so many years. Not only have I never eaten peaches, but I haven't tasted this ginseng fruit."
He comforted himself: "But it's just the desire of the mouth. I'll put up with it first. Sooner or later, these spiritual roots are mine, and I'm afraid it won't run away. Isn't there a saying that? Do those who achieve great things should starve their bellies first? I'll starve it first and grab the ginseng fruit tree later and have a full meal."
Xia Bing struggled to look away and no longer suffered from the fragrant fruit**.
When the two little Taoist boys, Qingfeng Mingyue, saw that Tang Monk did not know the fairy fruit and regarded it as a baby, so they no longer persuaded him. They would have their own room with the fruit and planned to eat it by themselves. On the way, they kept laughing at Tang Monk's naked-eyed fetus and did not know the fairy treasures, and were met by Zhu Bajie, who had just come back from walking the horse.
Zhu Bajie drooled, and remembered what his ancestor Taiqing ordered when he went down to earth. He turned his eyes and encouraged Sun Wukong to steal the fruit.
These five Zhuangguans are the Taoist place of Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of the immortals. The immortals with a little identity in the three worlds don't know. The Zhu Bajie and the Sha monks are even more aware of it. If it hadn't been for the power behind them, they would have been explained to them long ago, how could Zhu Bajie dare to pay attention to the ginseng fruit.
It's no different from the original Journey to the West. Sun Wukong stole the ginseng fruit. Finally, he was insulted by the breeze and bright moon because of the incident. He was angrily pushed to the ginseng fruit tree. Of course, with the realm of Sun Monkey but Taiyi Jinxian, how could he hurt the ginseng fruit tree, but the ginseng fruit tree is spiritual and has long been ordered by Zhen Yuanzi. It was just pushed by the Monkey King.
After Zhen Yuanzi rushed back, he also entered the role directly into the play. He took the Tang Monk and apprentice and wanted to put it into the oil pot and beat him with a whip. Although he saw Sun Wukong playing some uncharacteristic little tricks under his eyes, he also regarded it as if he didn't know it. In the end, he forced Sun Wukong to seek medical treatment everywhere and asked him to save the ginseng fruit tree before he would let go. .
Sun Wukong visited famous doctors, but when he heard that it was the treatment of ginseng fruit trees, they all shook their heads and sighed. Finally, he remembered the words "If you have difficulties, find a Bodhisattva" and went to the South China Sea to ask Guanyin for help.
Guanyin had long expected that the monkey would come back and scolded Sun Wukong, to the idea of how powerful Zhen Yuanzi was, even if she did not dare to provoke him, and the Buddha did not dare to offend anything. Then he picked up the jade bottle with an indifferent face and went to Wanshou Mountain with Sun Wukong.
But his heart was dripping blood and scolded: the thief who killed thousands of knives stole all the three light divine water of this seat. This was just a drop, and it had to be used on the ginseng fruit tree. They were all these plagued monkeys, which caused me to lose their treasures one after another.
After coming to Wuzhuangguan, Guanyin met Zhen Yuanzi, and the two sides exchanged falsely. Then Zhen Yuanzi went straight to the point and asked Guanyin to save the tree. The obvious meaning was that she was to warm her ginseng fruit tree with three light water.
The ginseng fruit tree that ate Sanguang Shenshui was very cooperative and no longer played big. It stood up directly, and the ginseng fruit that fell into the ground also grew back.
Xia Bing, who was hidden on one side, sighed: "They are all acting skills. If it hadn't been for Uncle Xia's high ability, he would have been killed by these dark guys sooner or later. Haven't you seen Zhen Yuanzi, who is known as an honest person, be so dishonest?"
Zhen Yuanzi was very satisfied to see the ginseng fruit set up. He took Sun Wukong to worship him, and asked Qingfeng Mingyue to beat more than a dozen ginseng fruit and entertained everyone.
After that, the four Tang monks and apprentices continued on the road, and Xia Bing followed again.
Next is the famous Sun Wukong's three dozen white bone spirits, and Tang Monk expelled Sun Wukong.
But this white bone essence is not white bone essence in Xia Bing's eyes at all, but a certain hell god possesses it with a trace of soul and manipulates a resentful white bone.
It is an agreement between the witches and the Buddha in the hell. After all, when Sun Wukong made trouble in hell, the Buddha owed a favor. Now of course, they have to share some merit.
After driving the Monkey King away, Zhu Bajie, Sha Monk and Tang Sanzang continued to go on the road, while Sun Wukong returned to Huaguo Mountain to be his Monkey King and went happily.
However, the Tang monk and his apprentice walked to a black pine forest and saw a high tower in the forest. Tang Monk thought it was a pagoda and disliked Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk's ugly appearance, so he took the initiative to go to the tower to stay. As a result, when he came to the tower, he found that the plaque above the tower door had six characters written "Wangzi Mountain Boyue Cave".
Tang Monk didn't care. He still knocked on the door. Only after the door opened did he know that this was not a pagoda. It was clearly a goblin cave. The sad Tang Monk was naturally taken into the cave and tied up.
There is a yellow-robed old monster in this broken moon hole, which is transformed into the lower world of the Kuimu wolf in the twenty-eight stars of the heavenly court. It is also a chess piece arranged by a great power to increase the disaster for the Tang monk and apprentice and divide the merits of the journey to the west.
This Kuimu wolf is only in the middle of Taiyi Jinxian. It is not defeated by the cooperation of Zhu Bajie and Sha monks, but they are all people in the heavenly court. They know each other and know how to play. Naturally, they pretend to be powerful and can't beat them.
Later, Baihua, the princess of the Baoxiang Kingdom, who was reincarnated by the maid of the Xiang Hall in the heavenly court, begged the Kuimu wolf to release the Tang monk, who released the Tang monk according to the set script.
The Tang monk brought a letter to the king of the Baoxiang Kingdom for Baihua. When the king learned that his daughter had been captured by a monster, he begged the Tang monk to help him. Tang Monk did not want to agree. At this time, Zhu Bajie stood up and took a big package. The king was very happy to see it and warmly entertained the Tang monk and apprentice. After Zhu Bajie was full of wine and food, he went to the moon hole to fight. He pretended to fight with the Kuimu wolf, pretended to be invincible, and was deliberately caught by the Kuimu wolf.
When the Tang monk saw that Zhu Bajie had not known for a long time, he asked Sha Monk to help him. Sha Monk was caught by the Kuimu wolf. After that, Kuimu wolf turned into a handsome teenager and came to the Baoxiang Kingdom to recognize his marriage, falsely accused Tang Monk of being a tiger spirit and turned Tang Monk into a tiger in front of the king.
The king saw that he was convinced and ordered the Tang monk to be locked up.
The three masters and apprentices were all arrested. The white dragon horse turned into a war between the white dragon and the Kuimu wolf at night. They were defeated and escaped and rescued Zhu Bajie. Before he could save the sand monk, the Kuimu wolf was killed back.
Zhu Bajie used an exciting method to invite Sun Wukong back from Huaguo Mountain. Kui Mulang and Sun Wukong fought and pretended to be invincible and fled back to the heavenly court. Sun Wukong rescued the Tang monk. The two masters and apprentice made up as before, and the four people continued to go to the west.
