Inside the Yellow Wind Cave.
Seeing Tang Sanzang soaked in the vat with his hands tied, Cheng Long couldn't help laughing. He stepped forward to untie him and said, "Sanzang, I didn't expect that you, who look so delicate and tender, can withstand such a deep soak. Even such a large vat of boiling water can't cook you!"
"Brother Sun, how dare you laugh at me? The Bodhisattva asked you to protect me as I went to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures, but you almost let me die!" Tang Seng, who was dragged out of the water tank, said with resentment on his face.
"You can't blame me for this. It's the cunning monster. If Bajie hadn't been tricked, this mountain god would have been worried about his safety, so why would he have given the Tiger Vanguard a chance to take advantage of him?"
Cheng Long never worried that Tang Seng would be eaten up by monsters. There were a bunch of immortals and Buddhas watching over this guy, so if he was captured, he would only suffer a little.
What's more, Tang Seng himself needs to go through hardships and cannot be protected too well.
I just killed the Yellow Wind Monster with a stick. The destined guardian of disaster, Lingji Bodhisattva, lost the chance to rescue me. Maybe he is suing me in the West!
"Brother Sun, Bajie is a cultivator, it will be okay if he disappears for a while. From now on, you should put my safety first." After escaping this ordeal, Tang Seng's personality changed. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely not say such selfish words.
Cheng Long smiled slightly and said nonchalantly: "Sanzang, it seems that you are really scared, but the journey to the west is full of uncertainties. I dare not pat my chest to guarantee that you will be absolutely worry-free. I can only try my best to protect you from disasters. Don't have too high expectations of me."
"..."
Tang Seng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to start.
After all, Brother Sun is not a Buddhist, so many things are inconvenient for him to say. If it were Bajie, he would definitely scold the other party for respecting his teacher and saying that not putting his master's safety first is unfilial.
There was some silence for a while.
The breeze blew gently, bringing with it a strong fishy smell.
After smelling the blood, the burning sensation on Tang Sanzang's body eased a little, and he finally had the energy to focus on things outside the kitchen.
"Brother Sun, have you killed all the monsters in the cave?"
Looking at the scene of monsters lying on the ground with red and white splashed everywhere, Tang Seng's voice trembled. There were thousands of little monsters in the Yellow Wind Cave. If they were all killed, what a huge sin it would be.
"That's almost it!"
Cheng Long shrugged his shoulders. There were really few monsters in the Huangfeng Cave that didn’t have evil spirits.
You do what kind of things you follow like the demon king. A demon who doesn't like to kill people and eat meat will never join the Huangfeng Cave. What's more, demons who like to practice in seclusion are rare, so what kind of good demons can there be in the Huangfeng Cave?
"This……"
Tang Seng wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, all the Buddhist precepts in his heart could only be transformed into one sentence "Amitabha". Buddhism forbids killing, and that is their business.
The mountain gods of the two worlds don’t care about these things.
Walking on the path stained with blood, Tang Sanzang walked out of the Yellow Wind Cave trembling with fear. Looking back, he found that Cheng Long had several corpses of little monsters in his hands.
Needless to say, these monsters will become dinner for Brother Sun and Bajie tonight.
"Amitabha!"
Tang Seng sighed quietly, and for a moment, he seemed to have realized something.
Monsters eat humans just like Brother Sun eats meat. In essence, it is a matter of the survival of the fittest. After they leave, the monster corpses in the cave will become dinner for the wild beasts to fight over.
After three to five months, the Huangfeng Ridge, which has been almost cleared, will give birth to a new batch of little monsters.
Just like a cycle, it goes on and on.
Monsters cannot be killed completely, just like the wild beasts all over the mountains, they can only be educated.
When he thought of this, Tang Sanzang felt that his journey to obtain the scriptures was long and arduous. On the way to the West, there were still many people and monsters waiting for him to teach.
……
A fire burned down the Yellow Wind Cave, and a few people led by Cheng Long and Tang Seng set out again.
That night, after Cheng Long finished eating the tiger meat selflessly given by Tiger Vanguard and left the tiger whip to Bajie, he was about to find a tree to sit cross-legged when he suddenly heard the voice of Sister Guanyin.
"Wukong~~"
On the top of the mountain, Guanyin, dressed in white, stood barefoot on a white cloud, dragging a jade bottle in her hand. Without the holy light special effect, she was covered with a layer of silver, which made her look particularly beautiful.
"Sister Guanyin, why did you suddenly want to come and see me?"
Cheng Long appeared here and looked at the cold and beautiful Guanyin Bodhisattva, his heart was slightly moved. It is undeniable that Kelly Chen's version of Sister Guanyin is really beautiful, no wonder the real person wants to get her.
Unfortunately, Guanyin did not agree to sign the contract, and missed a great opportunity in vain.
It’s not easy for him to hook up with Guanyin now.
If I succeed in hooking up with the female Bodhisattva that I failed to hook up with, it would feel... a little weird.
"Wukong, I came here to tell you that in the next disaster, you can let them off a little and give the immortals a sense of participation, otherwise you will offend a lot of people."
Guanyin said with a smile.
Her merits are very stable. Whether other people can gain merits depends entirely on Wukong. It has nothing to do with her, so she naturally won't be angry.
I came here to give a warning only to give an explanation to the immortals and Buddhas.
"If I just slack off the whole time and let Sanzang suffer all kinds of hardships, he will probably hate me to death."
Although Cheng Long guessed that his dedication and diligence would offend many immortals and Buddhas, he did not expect that Sister Guanyin's instructions would come so quickly. It seemed that Lingji Bodhisattva went to Lingshan to complain.
"This is easy. When you fight with the monster one day, pretend to be defeated and injured. Then you can just do nothing from then on." Guanyin smiled and gave Cheng Long an idea.
"Haha, since you all don't care about Tang Seng's accident, then I don't care either. I'll do whatever you say, Sister Guanyin!"
"So good."
After finishing the business, Guanyin, who was standing on the clouds, looked at Cheng Long on the top of the mountain for a while, and said slowly: "Wukong, do you have anything else you want to ask?"
"No more." Cheng Long shook his head.
"I'm leaving."
Guanyin didn't know what was going on, but sometimes when she was in close contact with Cheng Long, she was always fascinated by his unrestrained and uninhibited demeanor.
The feeling was not that strong before, but since Cheng Long cultivated to the realm of Hunyuan Golden Immortal before Tang Monk's journey to the West, the feeling has become stronger and stronger.
Perhaps it was the improvement of his cultivation that gave Cheng Long more confidence.
Now, he is not afraid even when facing old and powerful people like Zhen Yuanzi, Minghe Patriarch, Kunpeng Patriarch and so on.
After all, he has the support of seven saints behind him.
After watching Guanyin leave, Cheng Long quickly returned to the place where Tang Seng and his disciples stayed. Bajie was guarding the outer tent, sleeping like a pig. Tang Seng in the inner tent was also sleeping soundly, with his colorful cassock wrapped around him. Snakes, insects, rats and ants all tried to avoid him. The fragrance emitted by the cassock also had a calming effect.
If this thing were available for sale in modern society, it would instantly become popular on the Internet and attract countless people to bid up the price and scramble for it.
Nothing happened that night. After a simple meal the next morning, Cheng Long waved his hand, packed up the tents on the ground, and told everyone to set off again... The rolling Quicksand River stretches for thousands of miles and is hundreds of miles wide. Not even a goose feather can rise above the weak water.
The 800-li Liusha River is hard to find any human traces, and it is difficult for birds to cross. There are no human habitation for hundreds of miles on both sides of the river. On this day, Cheng Long and his party finally arrived at the Liusha River.
The one occupying this place is Sha Seng, the curtain-pulling general who was banished to the mortal world in the past!
When Sha Seng fell into this misfortune, he ate countless people, even the previous nine lives of Tang Seng were eaten up by him, leaving only a skull necklace made of skulls.
When Cheng Long saw Monk Sha, who was full of murderous aura, his first reaction was to beat him to death.
It has nothing to do with Tang Monk’s previous nine lives, but rather that this seemingly honest monk Sha has eaten too many innocent people.
Unfortunately, before he could make a move, Mu Zha appeared, went down to the river to subdue Sha Seng for him, and he easily survived the disaster.
Everything on the journey to the West had been arranged in advance, with only a very small number of disasters caused by demons, which were not arranged by Buddhism, but were also within Buddhism's calculations.
These are also the small group of demons killed by Sun Wukong in film and television dramas. Those divine mounts were all safe and sound in the end. However, Cheng Long has now replaced Sun Wukong, and it is not so easy for those divine mounts to finish doing bad things and get away safely.
The Yellow Wind Monster is the first, but definitely not the last.
After crossing the Quicksand River, the five-member team of Journey to the West was complete. Tang Seng rode the white dragon horse, Cheng Long walked in front to lead the way, Zhu Bajie was responsible for leading the horse, and Sha Seng carried the load.
The five of them talked and laughed as they headed west. They didn't know how many days they had been traveling when they suddenly saw a rather grand manor in the woods ahead. It was obviously a wealthy family's. Cheng Long's golden eyes could see the flaw at a glance.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
But he didn't say anything.
The stage where the Four Saints test your Zen heart is quite interesting. Maybe you can take this opportunity to get closer to Sister Guanyin.
"Master, there is a family ahead, they look wealthy, we have a place to stay tonight, I will go and beg for alms today." Bajie loosened the reins in his hand, took out Tang Monk's bowl, and was about to run to beg for alms when he heard a pair of words that pierced his heart.
"Bajie, you are ugly and rude, don't scare people, I'd better go by myself."
Tang Seng dismounted, took the bowl from Bajie, and walked forward and knocked on the door.
creak!
The gate opened and the owner of the manor came out, who turned out to be an old woman.
"Old man, I come from the Tang Dynasty in the East. I am a monk going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. I am passing by your place. I wonder if I could stay here for one night and have some vegetarian food?" Tang Seng asked politely.
"Of course, little wizard, please come in..."
With the old woman's warm hospitality, Cheng Long and his party entered the manor.
Since he had dealt with the Mother of Lishan in the Green Snake world, Cheng Long was quite happy when he met the Mother of Lishan who was playing the role of an old woman in the mountains in the Journey to the West world.
His own magical Fengming Sword and martial arts technique "Harmony of Dragon and Phoenix" were both given to him by the Old Mother of Mount Li, and he is still using them today.
I used to think that the Mother of Lishan was Nuwa, but now I realize from a closer distance that this is not the case. She is a female fairy with a very mysterious identity. Her cultivation is quite good, and she has reached the peak of quasi-saint status.
The three Bodhisattvas, Guanyin, Manjusri and Samantabhadra, who play the role of daughters, are only at the middle stage of quasi-sainthood.
It seems that the gap is not that big, but in fact, any small realm above the Taiyi realm is a world of difference, not to mention the quasi-saint realm.
A powerful being at the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm can easily defeat three younger generations at the middle stage of the Quasi-Saint realm.
This is also the reason why several Bodhisattvas are willing to be daughters.
After dinner, Tang Seng remembered that he had not asked the other party's name, which was quite unreasonable, so he asked awkwardly: "May I ask the name of the female donor?"
"My maiden name is Jia, and my husband's name is Mo. Unfortunately, my husband died early, leaving me and my three daughters behind..." At this point, Mrs. Mo sighed, "Alas, although there is a fortune and thousands of acres of fertile land, there is no one to take care of it."
"Oh!" Tang Seng sighed.
I don't know whether he was upset about not being able to marry into the family, or worried about Mrs. Mo and her three daughters.
"The four of us, mother and daughter, are looking for a husband!"
Madam Mo smiled and said, "Daughters, come out to meet the guests!"
"coming."
Three girls transformed from three Bodhisattvas, wearing colorful dresses, ran out from the inner courtyard chattering.
As soon as Bajie saw Mrs. Mo's three daughters, he almost drooled.
These three are much more beautiful than his Gao Cuilan. Not only do they have curvy figures, but their looks are also first-rate, comparable to the beautiful fairies in heaven.
"Mother, why are there so many guests?"
One of the girls, who had a lively personality, walked quickly up to Tang Seng and his group and looked them over openly.
"Lianlian, come back soon."
Madam Mo waved to her youngest daughter Lianlian, then said with a smile: "Elders, these are all my daughters, this is my eldest daughter Zhenzhen..."
"The second daughter is called Ai Ai..."
"My youngest daughter, Lianlian, is sixteen years old this year..."
When Mrs. Mo introduced her daughter, Tang Seng and Sha Seng looked very surprised, except for Bajie, who had a sneaky look in his eyes and subconsciously started eating his fingers.
As for Cheng Long?
This guy just watched the performance of several Bodhisattvas nonchalantly, as if nothing had happened.
Of course, his gaze would occasionally fall on "eldest daughter Zhenzhen". The Zhenzhen played by Sister Guanyin had a unique flavor, but compared to her original appearance, she lacked some charm and her appearance became much more ordinary.
"Elder, my family has enough grain to last for eight or nine years, enough silk to wear for ten years, and enough gold and silver to spend for a lifetime! If the four elders are willing to marry into my family, it will be free and easy, isn't it better than suffering on the way to the West?"
Madam Mo used extremely tempting words to constantly disturb the meditation of Tang Seng and his disciples. Tang Seng had been silently chanting "Amitabha" ever since he saw the three unmarried young ladies of the Mo family. At this time, Madam Mo pretended not to hear and continued chanting to herself, which made Bajie look anxious.
"Master, Master, that woman is talking to you? Why are you ignoring her?" Bajie couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade her.
"Go." Tang Seng turned around and glared at Bajie, "We are monks, how can we be tempted by wealth and beauty?"
“Uh, this, this…ah, just pretend I didn’t say anything…” Bajie retreated with a depressed look on his face.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Long stood up and said with a smile, "Sanzang, you are a monk so it is not convenient for you to marry into the family, but I can. Madam Mo, I really like your eldest daughter at first sight. I wonder if you can marry her to me?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Mo laughed and replied, "Haha, of course you can. The elder is handsome and has a very good appearance. I think he will definitely agree to marry you."
"This Goku... is so naughty!"
Guanyin, who had followed Manjusri and Samantabhadra back behind the scenes, was embarrassed and annoyed when she heard that Sun Wukong wanted to marry her. She wanted to rush out and give him a punch.
Others can't see it, so how can this bastard not see through his own identity?
Wukong is clearly teasing himself! (End of this chapter)
