The handwriting on the scriptures was written by a special method. Once it encounters magic power, it will melt. Therefore, it needs to be dried in the sun, and it is not practical to dry it with magic power.

Of course, it's not impossible, but it's just that there are hundreds of volumes of scriptures, and the precise control of mana drying is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is not as simple as drying it directly.

Tang Seng wanted to refuse, but then he thought about his life experience and agreed.

The four masters and disciples began to lift up the scriptures that had been dried on the bluestone on the shore.

Seeing this, Bai Gui also stepped forward to help.

However, what I never expected was that the bluestone stuck to several volumes of Buddhist scriptures and tore them apart with a slight tug. The Sanskrit characters on several pages of scriptures immediately disappeared and turned into wordless scriptures.

Instead, some scriptures were left on the bluestone.

Tang Monk felt remorseful and recited sutras to repent.

Not to mention that this Buddhist sutra was given by the World Honored Tathagata. He went through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships and endured endless suffering before seeking the true sutra. Now that several volumes of sutras are incomplete, how can I not regret it at all? Let alone

He said that he believed that this Buddhist scripture was a panacea for relieving the disasters of the people in Nanzhan tribe.

"The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and one of them is Man Escape. There are a few pages of scriptures left on this bluestone, which are in line with the Heavenly Dao. Master Xuanzang, there is no need to worry too much."

Bai Gui advised.

This monk can repent, but he can sit quietly and recite sutras. Even half an hour is considered short. If it is long, such as such a "blasphemous" act, it is not impossible to recite repentance sutras for several days and nights.

He had to give some advice, both emotionally and rationally. He didn't want to stay here. It would have been fine if he hadn't been with Tang Seng, but now that he was with Tang Seng, it was hard to abandon him.

The three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism are integrated into one. Even though Tang Monk is a monk, he is also a Taoist. His expression softened slightly and he thought for a moment. The reason why this scripture is broken like this is that it does have its Zen meaning," said Taoist Master Bai.

That’s right, this bluestone will stay here for those who are destined to do it.”

Every volume of Buddhist scriptures has the key to practice. The few pages of scriptures imprinted on this bluestone are no better than immortals, but they are different for ordinary creatures. Listen carefully, and it seems that there is a monk inside this bluestone scripture.

Then recite the sutra and teach the Taoism.

"This is the beauty of Mahayana."

Sun Wukong understood the nature of Buddha well and talked and laughed.

"Several elders and Taoist priests, it's getting dark soon. If we don't leave, it will be too late." The fisherman urged. He was still catching fish. The fish were short of water and could not stay on the shore for a long time.

After packing the scriptures into the box and cage, several people followed the fisherman into Chenjiazhuang.

Before entering Chenjiazhuang, a few miles away from the village, some villagers outside the village saw Tang Monk and his group. Their unique appearance was unforgettable in their lifetime, and they quickly ran into the village to inform the villagers. Therefore,

When we reached the entrance of the village, village elders, wealthy households, and some common people set up incense burners and rushed to greet him.

The rich man Chen Qing thanked Tang Seng for rescuing his daughter earlier, so he prepared a meal for her.

"Donor, this poor monk doesn't want to eat."

Tang Monk waved his hand and refused.

He shed his fleshly womb and became a ghost spirit. Although he could eat again, eating would defile the Buddha's body. Moreover, without a physical body, he had no desire to eat or drink.

If he were to eat at this moment, he would only be able to stomach the Immortal Family's Immortal Banquet.

It is not an empty talk that gods eat their breath and live longer. This fairy banquet of the immortal family can be enjoyed by the immortals with flesh bodies and they will be happy. The gods without flesh can also enjoy their physical and mental pleasure by eating their breath.

"This elder pig, why don't you eat anything?"

It was okay for Tang Seng not to eat. After all, Tang Seng was a pure-hearted person, and everyone in Chenjiazhuang also knew it, but Zhu Bajie was not an ascetic person. After helping Chenjiazhuang last time, he wanted to eat and drink well. However,

A feast was prepared today, but Zhu Bajie refused to eat.

A very strange thing.

"Somehow, my spleen and stomach suddenly became weak." Zhu Bajie said casually.

He washed his Tao body at Lingyundu. Although he was still a pig fetus and could not purify his body, he was much stronger than before. If he eats ordinary food at this time, it will not be good if he misses the Taoist line.

Sun Wukong only eats wild fruits and does not eat vegetarian food.

As for Sha Seng, the role can be omitted.

"This Taoist Priest..."

The village elder looked troubled and asked Bai Guidao for instructions.

Tang Seng and his disciples all refused to eat, and no one used the delicious vegetarian food. This inevitably brought Chenjiazhuang's face down and Chenjiazhuang's favor...

Very inappropriate!

Bai Gui understood the reasons for Tang Monk and the four of them, nodded, took a bowl of plain noodles, and finished eating slowly.

He is an immortal with perfect merits and virtues, and this mortal thing cannot damage his Taoist body.

"I don't know where the growth comes from?"

The village elder breathed a sigh of relief, put on a smile, and asked.

It would inevitably make them a little embarrassed if their benefactor did not eat the fast food they prepared. But if you eat it in vain, even though you are not their benefactor, you are still a guest, so this welcome gift is considered complete.

When he saw Taoist Bai Gui dressed up, he knew immediately that he was not a monk who went to the West to seek Buddhist scriptures.

"Pindao came from the Tang Dynasty in the east and had an old relationship with Elder Tang. After being a guest in Lingshan, he went back to the southern continent with Elder Tang." Bai Gui introduced a few words briefly.

But when these words fell into the ears of everyone in Chenjiazhuang, they were horrified and could not stop for a long time.

What a Taoist could be a guest in Lingshan.

While the group was chatting, they had already arrived at the home of Chen Qing, a wealthy man in Chenjiazhuang. Chen Qing was financially powerful in Chenjiazhuang and could provide accommodation for several people.

"Old countryman, I want to ask you something."

After the villagers dispersed, Tang Seng asked the village elder to stay, and then said: "Thirty-two years ago, was there a baby missing in your village..."

He searched for Jiang Liu'er's few memories and asked them one by one.

"It's a pity that there is this child. At that time, the King of Inspiration had just come to Tongtian River and asked us to offer sacrifices. It was not this child. His family was poor... so we could only give up the child and throw it in the wooden basin.

.”

The old man replied.

His words were sincere, but the unfamiliarity in his voice made people shudder.

The clothes are simple and old-fashioned.

If the King of Inspiration asked the Chen Family Manor to sacrifice boys and girls, the first ones to be sacrificed would not be the children of the rich family, but the children of the poor family.

"Later, the child's parents jumped into the river and died!"

The village elder briefly told the ending.

After finishing speaking, he was stunned for a moment and looked at Tang Seng, "Elder Tang asked this little old man, but what's the important matter?"

When he said this, he felt that there must be something secret here.

But he didn't think Tang Seng was the first baby to be abandoned in the village.

One is in Xiniuhezhou, and the other is in Nanzhanbuzhou. The Tongtian River does not lead to Nanzhanbuzhou and the Tang Dynasty in the east. No matter how you think about it, this Tang monk has nothing to do with the baby.

"Amitabha."

Tang Monk twirled his beads and said the Buddha's name.

The village elder was puzzled. Seeing that Tang Monk didn't want to answer and just closed his eyes, he bowed and left.

"Master, repay retaliation. The Chen Family Village abandoned you back then. It's fitting that they almost lost their descendants and were eaten up by the King of Inspiration!"

Sun Wukong sneered.

He held the golden cudgel and thought it was ridiculous. In the Tongtian River disaster, he didn't expect that the people he saved were cannibal monsters. Previously, when the Inspiration King was still around, he even teased Chen Qing and made Chen Qing give up his family wealth.

He bought other people's children and sent them to die. But when this happened to Tang Seng, he suddenly felt a lot sadder.

"Amitabha, the great king of inspiration came because of the poor monk, and also left because of the poor monk. After all, it was the poor monk who implicated the people of Chenjiazhuang, no wonder them. With children in front of him, how could he give up his own flesh and blood to devote himself to that inspiration?

King."

Tang Monk was silent for a while and then said.

Now that he has given up his body, he has lost all the family ties in this life. In addition, as he said, the disaster in Chenjiazhuang was caused by him. After all, he has a great relationship with him. Everyone in Chenjiazhuang suffered an unreasonable disaster.

As for why the Inspiration King wanted to have his own flesh and blood after that, I'm afraid it has something to do with it.

Tang Seng does not want revenge, and everyone will not take matters into their own hands.

It is also Tang Monk who is kind-hearted. Although the Buddha forbids killing, he does not necessarily allow others to bully him without taking revenge. If he really wants to kill someone, he does not necessarily have to do it himself. He can just make some calculations and let others kill for him.

Chen Yuanwai's home is luxurious and has many houses.

Bai Gui lived alone in a wing room and meditated at night.

"Fellow Taoist Bai, you have come to Tongtian River, why don't you say hello to me?" Just as Bai Gui was adjusting his breath, there was a sound in his ears, and then a Taoist stood outside the door.

"Fellow Taoist Ruyi."

Bai Gui opened his eyes, left the wing in an instant, and bowed his head.

The two exchanged greetings.

"The old white turtle of Tongtian River has something to do with me. After he shook off the pilgrim, he was worried about the monkey head's revenge, so he hid in my Jie Yang Mountain."
