532 , the mystery of Tang monk's life experience(1/2)
He seems to have been entrusted by someone else.
Tang Monk was in a state of confusion, and was not interested in chatting with Bai Gui.
Although the trip back to Chang'an is still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away, the four masters and disciples, together with the white dragon horse, have already left their mortal bodies and achieved enlightenment.
Tang Monk took off the shackles of his physical body when he crossed the river in Lingyun, leaving only his soul protected by the golden light of merit. Therefore, even if his cultivation was poor and his magic power was weak, his soul floated as if it were nothing, and it would not be too much of a drag on a few people.
leg.
While he was talking, a gust of wind suddenly blew by.
Bai Gui, Sun Wukong and others are not in trouble, but although Tang Monk has attained Taoism, he is not like Sun Wukong, who has practiced the seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques to protect him. The technique of Zhaoyun (one of the seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques, which can control auspicious clouds and soar into the clouds and mist)
If you are not yet proficient, your soul is fragile. When it is blown by the strong wind, you have to lower your clouds to prevent the strong wind from damaging the body of your soul.
The seventy-two transformations are Sun Wukong's way to avoid the three disasters. The three disasters occur once every five hundred years, and they refer to thunder, yin fire, and wind. After becoming an immortal, you are still afraid of these three disasters. What's more, Tang Monk only has a yin spirit.
When the strong wind blows, my body feels like sharp knives scraping my bones and flesh. Even though I have merit to protect my body, my soul will not be shattered, but this is still very difficult to endure.
After the scriptures fell to the ground, Tang Monk lowered his cloud head and stood on the earth. The pain eased slightly, "Disciple, this strong wind should be blown by the Eight Great Vajras. I don't know what the Eight Great Vajras mean. You and I should stop here for a while."
Zhu Bajie hummed a few times and said, "Master, we must be walking a little faster. King Kong means that we should stop here for a while."
He was more tired than Tang Seng when flying on the clouds. Tang Seng was a Yin spirit, so he could move countless miles with the force of the wind. But he was a pig fetus, with only Yuan Ling as an immortal, so it was quite difficult to support such a cumbersome body.
However, even though it was a pig fetus, it was still a body after all, and he would not let go of it easily.
With the physical body, he will have more confidence in becoming enlightened in the future. He comes from a famous family, and he will definitely not be so short-sighted.
"The Eight Great Vajras should have a deeper meaning."
Bai Gui knew that Tang Monk still had one calamity left, so he used Zhong Kui's incident to remind Tang Monk. This was also the reason why the Eight Great Vajras were doing this.
The reason why it is not explained directly is because once it is explained, this calamity will not be regarded as a calamity.
Both the Gradual Enlightenment School and the Sudden Enlightenment School of Buddhism emphasize the word "enlightenment".
This is not without reason.
"Master, if you listen to the sound of the water here, I guess there should be a big river nearby." After all, Sha Monk had spent a lot of time in Liusha River, and the sound of water could be heard in his ears, so he was much more sensitive than others.
"The sound of water reminds me of your Liusha River."
Sun Wukong rarely laughed.
The journey of 108,000 miles was finally over, and he had the opportunity to return to the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain to meet his disciples. He said that Sha Monk thought of Liusha River, but in fact, deep down in his heart, he thought of the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain.
"Senior Brother, the water veins and water sounds are different in different places. My Liusha River carries sediment and is heavy, and the sound of the water is like a dull thunderous drum. But this water sound is crisp and loud. It can be seen that it should be the sound of the water above us.
I’ve been to Tongtian River once.”
Sha Monk shook his head and talked.
The sound of water in mountains and rivers is not the same. The water in creeks and rivers is gurgling, and the water in springs is gurgling. The water in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River is also different. And the Tongtian River is not an ordinary river, it is also very famous in Xiniu Hezhou
. He is a "water demon". Hearing the sound of the Tongtian River, you will never forget it again.
As soon as I heard the sound of water at this moment, I knew I had arrived at the side of Tongtian River.
Sun Wukong did not hesitate. He jumped deep and climbed up to the top of the clouds. After a quick look, he arrived at the land again. "Junior Brother Sha is right. This is the west bank of the Tongtian River."
Tongtian River?
Tang Monk muttered a few words, "There used to be Chenjiazhuang in Tongtian River. When we came here that year, it was you and Bajie who saved their children by changing their magic. The villagers felt sorry for them and wanted to build a boat to send us off. It was an old white turtle that crossed the river.
, that brought us to the other side.”
"But the west bank of the Tongtian River is deserted, so what should we do?"
There was a strong wind in the sky, which Sun Wukong and others could not bear, but he could not bear it, so he could only take a boat to the east bank. But he had been to the Tongtian River and knew that there was no one on the west bank, and there was no boatman.
"Tang Monk really doesn't remember this?"
Bai Gui was puzzled.
Regardless of the fact that Tang Seng has now achieved enlightenment, Tang Seng, as a mortal, was able to become a Buddhist monk and serve as the main lecturer at the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. Tang Seng's memory of the scriptures is much better than ordinary people. In short, Tang Seng's memory is much better than that of ordinary people.
His memory is so good that ordinary people cannot match it.
Just like when he was a mortal, his photographic memory was just a small talent that was not worthy of praise for those who won the imperial examination. From ancient times to the present, it is not uncommon for memories to be remembered.
Not to mention that Tang Monk had previously stated that Chen Guangrui was a shell of his tenth life...
Chen Guangrui can win the first prize, and his talent is definitely among the top.
If Tang Seng had forgotten something, it was still possible. However, he reminded him once, and Tang Seng still didn't know where it happened. This is a very strange thing.
"Chenjiazhuang, Jiangliu'er..."
"Chen Guangrui..."
Bai Gui muttered a few words and suddenly realized.
Chenjiazhuang on the east bank of the Tongtian River is actually not a small place worth mentioning, but the real place of birth of Jiang Liuer or Chen Guangrui. That the King of Inspiration is a goldfish raised in the lotus pond of Guanyin Bodhisattva, he must also know
Some secrets of learning from scriptures.
In the tenth life, Tang Monk was reincarnated in Chenjiazhuang, Tongtian River. If the King of Inspiration eats it, he will definitely be able to achieve positive results without being implicated in any cause and effect. At the end of the tenth life, Jin Chanzi's status as a Buddhist scripture seeker will be abolished. Therefore, this is also the King of Inspiration.
The reason why Chenjiazhuang must offer up boys and girls after a while...
Furthermore, the King of Inspiration asked Chenjiazhuang to offer boys and girls, but he did not let the people of Chenjiazhuang buy other boys and girls for him to eat. He only ate the biological children of the people of Chenjiazhuang. In terms of increasing cultivation, the boys and girls of Chenjiazhuang were not seen either.
They are better and more spiritual than the boys and girls elsewhere.
The only explanation is that the Inspiration King wanted to eat the reincarnated body of Tang Monk.
As for why Tang Monk went to the Tongtian River to obtain scriptures, it is not difficult to guess why the inspiration king was still like this. Monsters, immortals and gods spend one year in seclusion, which is similar to a mortal's day.
Tang Monk is Jiang Liu'er, also the tenth generation Jin Chanzi. Knowing this, he quickly escaped from the murder, so he used his magic power to escape from the trap and lived in the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty...
And the memory about this place was also deliberately erased.
If you become a monk and become a monk, you don’t have to remember your past life. Similarly, if a mortal remembers this, a great demon like the King of Inspiration can sense it secretly and hunt him down. Faith can sense it.
The same is true for hatred.
As a result... when Tang Monk came to Tongtian River, even though he had a good photographic memory, he could not remember the old white turtle's entrustment because his memory was erased when he was young.
…
"After talking about the mats on the fire table, Sanzang bowed his body, thanked the alms-giver, and then asked: 'Old donor, whose surname is Gao.' The old man said, 'his surname is Chen.' Sanzang put his palms together and said, 'This is my poor monk Hua Zong.
The old man asked: "My surname is also Chen?" Sanzang said: "Yes, the common people also have the surname Chen..." - "Journey to the West Chapter 47".
"Someone reported it to the two elders a long time ago..." Bajie said: "I no longer call him Sanzang, but change his name to Chen Jiji." - "Journey to the West Chapter 48".
In the forty-eighth chapter, Tang Seng was taken to the bottom of the river by the King of Inspiration. Zhu Bajie jokingly called Tang Seng Chen (Chen) to the end. And Tang Seng was also called Jiang Liuer...
…
Although Bai Gui roughly guessed these secrets, there was no need to mention them in a hurry until Tang Monk had passed this calamity.
"The same goes for these eight Vajras, who used strong winds to keep things safe..."
Zhu Bajie complained in disbelief.
"Second Senior Brother, don't be upset. Now that Master has gained the right path, there is no need to walk step by step to Lingshan Mountain. You and I can use magic to bring Master there with the Technique of Pot Heaven."
Sha Sengti suggested.
"No, no. This trip of the Eight Parts Vajra must have a profound meaning. You and I must not disobey the Buddha's Zen intention." Sun Wukong knew that one of the ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties was still missing, so he said deliberately.
He is a spiritually intelligent stone monkey and has been blessed with immortality, which is comparable to the two junior brothers. But he hides these words in his heart and cannot express them clearly, just like Bai Gui. But Bai Gui thinks more deeply.
He could only see the shallow layer….
While they were making noise, a giant turtle appeared on the surface of the Tongtian River.
"Tang Shengseng, Tang Shengseng, come here, I will take you to the other side." The old white turtle walked to the shore, stuck his head out, and asked: "Elder Tang, I have been waiting for you here for several years, why are you here now?
Just came back."
The group of people chatted and laughed and got on the back of the old white turtle.
The old white turtle spread its four legs and walked on the water as if it were flat ground. When he reached the middle of the water, he asked calmly: "Elder Tang, last time I begged Elder Tang to go to the Western Heaven Tathagata and ask me how long I have to live."
..., I wonder if Elder Tang has asked?"
He probably knew deep down in his heart that Tang Monk didn't ask.
If asked, Tang Seng would probably tell him if he saw him.
But Tang Seng only talked to him and didn't mention Lingshan to ask Tathagata about his longevity. He knew that Tang Seng had broken his promise. Since he gave Tang Seng and others a ride last time, this time... he was angry.
, which would make Tang Seng and others suffer a loss.
The monk in Tang Dynasty was too nervous to speak and kept silent for several breaths.
"You are so good, Elder Tang, but you are also a dishonest person."
The old white turtle was so angry that he turned over and shook Tang Seng and others down. They also fell into the river with their luggage.
Bai Gui had known this for a long time, so he quickly rose into the air and walked through the air.
