Chapter One Hundred and Seven, Back Pot Monkey(1/2)

The team of seeking scriptures was on the road again, and Tang Sanzang was still the same. He simply expanded his body several times and his appearance decreased a little.

These are all small problems. With the difficulties and hardships on Journey to the West, it is only a matter of time to lose weight.

Everything was as usual, Sun Wukong was leading the way ahead, Zhu Bajie was responsible for leading the horse, and Sha Wujing continued to carry the luggage load, as if nothing had changed, and it seemed that everything had changed.

After just one day of travel, Tang Sanzang felt physically and mentally exhausted, especially when he saw the pile of wild fruits brought back by Sun Wukong, he wanted to vomit.

In fact, this was the result of Sun Wukong's deliberate care. At the beginning, every time Sun Wukong went out to pick "peaches". Now, although it is still wild fruits, at least several options have been added.

Of course, you don’t expect anything like smell. It’s not easy to fill your stomach.

He selected a large nameless fruit and stuffed it into his mouth. A bitter and sour smell surged into his heart. Tang Sanzang, who was greatly stimulated, hurriedly spit out the flesh.

After being fooled, Tang Sanzang decisively chose to change to a different wild fruit and put it in his mouth to chew it.

This time the taste is much normal, leaving only simple bitterness. The one with bitterness on the eyebrows is most suitable for treating dental worms.

It was a wild fruit that was difficult to swallow several times in a row. It was a bite of it, and it was different.

After several twists and turns, Tang Sanzang, who was a good-tempered person, was also a little annoyed. He immediately asked Sun Wukong: "You splashed monkey, let you go out to find some wild fruits to satisfy your hunger. Why did you find it so weird?"

If you deliberately make trouble, it is purely abusing Sun Wukong... There are not many wild fruits that taste good. Most of the widely circulated fruits are slowly cultivated through artificial acquired training.

"Master, as the saying goes: One place of water and soil nourishes the other. The land here is barren and there is little rainfall, so the wild fruits grown are naturally dry, bitter and spicy.

Master, let’s be with him for three or five days. After these hills, the situation will improve later.”

Sun Wukong persuaded with great sincerity.

There is only one truth, that is laziness. As a passive and lazy monkey, Sun Wukong learned to be perfunctory early on.

As for whether Tang Sanzang, who has a physical body, can withstand it, it has never been within his consideration. Anyway, he is hungry and can eat anything.

As long as you ensure that the wild fruit is non-toxic and can fill your stomach, it is enough. To obtain the scriptures, you are destined to exhaust your muscles and bones, starve your body, and be empty...

Zhu Bajie, who was beside him, took a wild fruit and gave it to him. He could finish it with just two "clicks" sounds.

"Master, Brother Monkey is right. There is no one in this radius of a hundred miles. You can only find these wild fruits to satisfy your hunger. Let's fight it first!

Although the taste is a little worse, didn’t we all come here like this before?

You should just stick to it first. When someone lives in a place, I will go and make a vegetarian meal for you to improve it.”

Seeing Tang Sanzang's jokes is also one of the few fun in the team to obtain scriptures. The three disciples Yilong Horse are all among gods and have long been free from the trap of grains.

Eating is just something that is usually made for Tang Sanzang. It seems that Zhu Bajie threw wild fruit into his mouth, but in fact he didn't know which corner he threw it to.

For those who are ordinary foods in the immortal world, the meaning of existence is only to satisfy the desires of the mouth and has no substantial meaning.

"Master, senior brother, second brother are all right. Master, you can just do it first!

Otherwise, we will accompany you to a circle and distract you from the poker table, and you may not feel the wild fruit is bitter."

Sha Wujing took advantage of the situation and made up for a knife.

The result of one to three is obviously that Tang Sanzang was sure to eat these wild fruits. Although the accompanying Wufang Jiedi felt that they were playing too much, it was impossible for those who went through the sufferings to obtain the scriptures without experiencing hardships.

Anyway, if you just eat a few wild fruits, it would not take Tang Sanzang's life, so you simply turned a blind eye and closed your eyes.

They are all caused by the Golden Cicadazizi before reincarnation. As the second-ranked existence among the ten most dangerous insects in ancient times, the Six-winged Golden Cicada is known for its greed. As long as the heaven, earth, gods, Buddhas, ghosts and demons are found in the six realms of reincarnation, they are all his recipes.

This way of eating is not good. Even after being enlightened by the Buddha Tathagata, the Jinchanzi who entered Lingshan would improve their food from time to time, and many Buddhist children and grandchildren entered his belly.

No matter how awesome it is, Jin Chanzi has never escaped the cycle of reincarnation of the heavenly way. "Those who eat people will always eat it."

The six-winged golden cicada engulfs all things, which is also a great tonic. It is one of its effects that ordinary people and demons can live forever and never grow old when they eat it.

"Cicada" also speaks of "Zen", "Golden" represents the West, and "Golden Cicada" means the nobleness of the West. If the golden cicada had not been born in response to the great fortune of the West, it would have been the son of Lingshan's fortune, and would have been on the dining tables of the Buddhas long ago.

Where did Jin Chanzi's body go? Let's not mention it for now. Jin Chanzi, who was reincarnated in the tenth generation, is a big tonic in the eyes of demons.

The demon kings are eyeing Tang Monk's flesh. In addition to the effect of immortality, the most important thing is to obtain the magical power of "Golden Cicada to escape from the shell".

The five directions of Jie Di did not stand up for Tang Sanzang, a large part of the reason why Buddhism believes in the cycle of cause and effect. In their eyes, Tang Sanzang's tragic experience is the atonement of the six-winged golden cicada ten years ago.

The crackling sound of mahjong sounded, and the wild fruits were stuffed into the mouth again. Tang Sanzang's feeling was much better.

It was late at night as soon as I played. There was no reason to be accidental. The exhausted Tang Sanzang got up one night the next day.

Just being lazy, no one took it seriously. I just didn't know that Pandora's box would never be able to close again.

It’s so cool to be lazy, I’m so lazy. Before I knew it, the team that was addicted to learning scriptures quietly shortened the travel time.

If you are clocking in to work, it is a typical example of being late and leaving early. Fortunately, the immortals and Buddhas have little concept of time, and they are used to using Yuanhui to calculate time, and they don’t care about the changes in the time.

There was a pair of mahjong, and the joy of the team on the journey to the west suddenly increased. The sun was too strong and stopped for two moves, the rain stopped for two moves, and the wind stopped for two moves...

Before he knew it, the most common words that Tang Sanzang said were no longer scriptures, but exchanged mahjong game with his apprentices.

The benefits are also great. The relationship between the four masters and apprentices who played mahjong together quickly heated up.

Even the fruits found by Sun Wukong were not so sour. Occasionally, when he was in a good mood, he even gave Tang Sanzang a bowl of vegetarian rice.

After more than a month of wind and dining, a mysterious Taoist temple building entered the eyes of the four masters and apprentices.

"The Immortal Palace of Immortality, and the Taoist family of Tianshou."

After reading the couplet on the plaque, the four masters and apprentices took a breath.

Unlike the ignorant fearless person in the original work, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing are both the masters who have heard of Zhen Yuanzi's Daming.

Even if you know, you know, but for Sun Wukong who wants to make things difficult for Buddhism, pretending to be confused is also an option.

"Master, don't take it seriously. This Taoist priest said something big and fooled people. When I was making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, the head of the Taishang Laojun's door never saw such words."

His arrogant and domineering look was vividly evident by the Romance of Sun Wukong. If he didn't understand him, he might have been fooled by this expression.

"Wukong, it's not our fault that the master carved words on his own door. As monks, how can we criticize others' strengths and weaknesses behind our backs?"

Obviously, Tang Sanzang also expressed doubts about the content on the plaque. There are so many immortals and Buddhas who live forever, but this is the first time that he has encountered this.

"Master, don't worry about so many of him. We should go in and take a look first, or this Taoist priest has some virtues, but it is unknown."

Zhu Bajie tentatively reminded.

I can say so much, because of the fact that everyone has a good relationship these days. If it really causes trouble, he will not stop him.

Although I don’t know the specific disasters in Journey to the West, my intuition tells Zhu Bajie that as long as I can encounter it, it will be a trouble for the team to obtain the scriptures.

The big men's plot was not something that he, a young pawn, could not know. However, in order to obtain the scriptures, he offended Zhenyuanzi, and Zhu Bajie still couldn't do it.

Not to mention Sha Wujing behind him, he was like a wooden man at this moment, standing there motionless, waiting for Tang Sanzang to issue an order.

The four masters and apprentices walked into the second floor of the middle of the view, and saw two boys jumping up and greeting him, bowing to Tang Sanzang's back and saying, "Master, I'm not welcome, please sit down."

Seeing this, Tang Sanzang was overjoyed. Looking at the treatment, not only was there a resting place tonight, but a sumptuous vegetarian meal was also indispensable.

It is also Huazhai, and when it comes to wealthy families and ordinary people, it will be treated differently. Even if an ordinary person is willing to give alms, he has to check if there is rice in the jar.

When the two fairy children entered the hall, they saw the two characters "Heaven and Earth" decorated in colorful hanging in the middle of the wall, with a vermilion carved lacquer table, a pair of golden furnace bottles on the table, and a arranged incense beside the stove.

Tang Sanzang stepped forward, picked up the incense and poured it into the furnace with his left hand, and after worshiping for three weeks, he turned around and said, "Immortal Boy, your Wuzhuang Temple is really a Western fairy world. Why not offer to the Three Pure Ones, Six Emperors, and Luotian priests, and only serve the incense of heaven and earth?"

The boy laughed and said, "Sanqing is the friend of the family master, Liuyu is the old friend of the family master, Jiuyao is the junior of the family master, and Yuanchen is the guest of the family master..."

Although there is suspicion of being boasted, it is generally not bad. Both are guests from Zixiao Palace, Zhen Yuanzi and Sanqing do have some friendship.

I don’t know what I thought of, but Sun Wukong, who was pretending to be confused and wanted to make trouble, suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, he realized something was wrong. As a cautious and honest monkey, why did he just want to make trouble in front of the boss?

"Provoking a conflict between Buddhism and Zhen Yuanzi", if you think about it, you will know that it is not reliable. In this world of immortals and Buddhas, no matter how secret he is, he will inevitably be in trouble in the end.

The conflict may be able to be provoked, but the price is to lose a monkey's life. After a little analysis, Sun Wukong felt that this transaction could not be done.

Sun Wukong, who calmed down, chose to watch coldly. Even if the fruit of life was delivered to his mouth, he resisted the temptation.

If Sun Wukong doesn't come forward to cause trouble, the two salted fish, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, will not jump out to cause trouble. They spent the night safely, and the next day, the four masters and disciples said goodbye and left.

The disaster set in advance suddenly disappeared, and it doesn't matter to Zhen Yuanzi who returned from listening to the sect. For powerful people who have reached his level of cultivation, setting up a disaster to get some merits can only add to the icing on the cake.

But the influence on Buddhism is greatly reduced. The ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties are a common agreement between the Buddhists and the powerful people of the three realms, and each disaster is divided well.

Any disaster that was missing in the middle of the journey might have an impact on the subsequent rise of Buddhism, causing Guanyin Bodhisattva to rush to Wuzhuangguan to discuss with Zhenyuanzi.

After explaining the purpose of the visit, Zhen Yuanzi refused and said, "Bodhisattva, it's not that I am unwilling to help. It's really because Tang Monk and disciple did nothing. I can't let me make things difficult for no reason, right?"

As a good person among the powerful people in the Three Realms, Zhen Yuanzi was naturally not a simple person.

It will be a matter of time to cooperate with the rise of Buddhism, but if you have to pay your reputation, you will be exempted from the negotiation.

Upon hearing this reply, Guanyin Bodhisattva complained secretly. According to the Buddhist plan, Wuguanzhuang is a very important part, not the kind of disaster that can be replaced at any time.

The reason is very simple. As the ancestor of the earth immortals, Zhen Yuanzi has a very unique position in the prehistoric world. Especially after the founding of Gods and Killing Tribulation, he became the main force to reunite the prehistoric world, and even pushed Zhen Yuanzi to the altar.

It would be fine if it were just these, but Wuguanzhuang is still at the gateway of the East and the West, and the Earth Immortal lineage has already formed its own power.

It is not obvious in a short period of time, but with the continuous decline of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the role of the Immortal Avenue in the future will become increasingly heavy in the prehistoric world.

If you don’t take the opportunity to get involved in cause and effect with Zhen Yuanzi, how can Buddhism extend its hand to the Earth Immortal lineage in the future?

If the Taoist ancestor had not ordered the powerful people in the Three Realms to cooperate with the great rise of Buddhism, I am afraid that the Wuzhuang Temple would not have been opened to Tang Monk and disciples.

After performing it according to the established script, Tang Seng and his disciples were not caught. Theoretically, this disaster could be considered to have been barely over.
To be continued...
