Chapter 492: Small Leiyin Temple

The Flaming Mountain was extinguished and the banana fan was returned.

Cheng Long, who once again joined the team, resumed his previous casual attitude. When faced with Tang Seng's orders, he basically did not move if he wanted to, and was too lazy to pay attention if he did not want to move.

But precisely because of this, Bajie, who seemed foolish but was actually smart, dispelled his doubts within half a day.

In the previous month, he had always suspected that Brother Sun had been swapped. Not only did he lose his storage ring, but he also didn't eat barbecue at night and only had barbecue every few days. However, it was Brother Sun's personal hobby that sometimes he would grill meat and stew soup for several nights in a row and never stop eating.

It would be fine if I just couldn’t eat meat.

But Brother Sun, who usually played a dominant role, suddenly asked the master about everything and even tried to please him, like a completely different person.

"Brother Sun's storage ring is back, and his personality has returned to his usual casualness, and he is indifferent to the master..." Looking at the 'Sun Wukong' walking in front, Bajie touched his exposed belly and thought to himself: "The familiar feeling is back, it's great!"

"Brother Sun, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so indifferent to me? Are you worried about something?"

Tang Seng was unable to adapt to Sun Wukong's sudden change in attitude for a while, and even felt a little annoyed in his heart, but he was a smart man, and even though he had previously disliked Wukong's servility and obedience to him, he had never shown it.

But sometimes I feel the same doubts as Bajie!
"Sanzang, it's only been a month since we last met, why have you become so nagging?"

Cheng Long turned around and looked at Tang Seng.

Tang Seng was stunned and asked in confusion: "Brother Sun, don't we see each other every day?"

"You don't really think that the Sun Wukong who obeys your every word is me, do you?"

Cheng Long raised his lips slightly and sneered, "A month ago, you and I had a quarrel because of a group of robbers. At that time, I flew back to Liangjie Mountain. The Sun Wukong behind was a monkey in disguise. In order to conceal the truth, the dignified Golden Immortal repeatedly promised that he would never kill anyone in the future. Even if the other party was a villain, he wanted you to nod your head. You really don't care about your face."

"..."

Tang Seng was confused for a moment.

Since the previous Big Brother Sun was impersonated by the demon monkey, why did Big Brother Sun come back?

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie could not help but complain, "Hey, Brother Sun, you are such a fool! The demon monkey pretended to be you and sneaked into the pilgrim team, but you actually let him do whatever he wanted. Aren't you afraid that the demon monkey will kill me?"

"Six-Ear pretended to be me and sneaked into the pilgrim team. He was too busy protecting you guys, how could he possibly kill you?"

What Cheng Long said was right. Liu'er pretended to be himself and infiltrated the team in order to obtain the fruit of Buddhism and get a lifelong position, so that he would not have to consider whether any small person he met outside had a backer.

"Why, Brother Sun?"

"Because he wants to achieve enlightenment..."

……

Cheng Long's return is neither good nor bad for Tang Seng. It's just that he lacks an obedient helper, and he has to listen to him most of the time, which doesn't feel very good.

After all, he was already used to the six-eared macaque disguised as Sun Wukong, and he could use him very smoothly.

However, Tang Seng was an accomplished monk after all, and within a few days, he had adapted to Cheng Long's presence.

Especially when he was forced by a group of monsters to marry Xingxian while passing through Thorn Ridge, and was rescued in time by Cheng Long, Tang Seng became even more dependent on Brother Sun.

Bajie and Sha Seng are often unreliable.

One day, a group of people walked out of a canyon and a towering mountain suddenly came into view.

"Master, there is a temple ahead. It is so magnificent!"

Zhu Bajie was suspended in mid-air, with his hands placed in front of his eyebrows, as if looking out.

The presence of a temple means that fragrant and delicious vegetarian meals are right in front of you. Bajie has been very craving for them recently. After Brother Sun was disguised as the Six-Eared Macaque and returned, he rarely grilled meat at night.

Even the tents stored in the storage ring were handed over to Sha Seng for care, making Sha Seng's burden heavier by at least one third.

Fortunately, Monk Sha was not an ordinary man, so he didn't care at all if his burden increased by a hundred or eighty kilograms.

There are just too many things, and it’s not easy to walk while carrying them.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. Cheng Long and Tang Seng have different ideologies. One believes that all evil must be eradicated, while the other is against killing and likes to persuade evil people to lay down their butcher knives.

The two people with different ideas had been trying to accommodate each other from the beginning, until they were about to reach the Huoyan Mountain and encountered vicious bandits, and the conflict completely broke out.

Although the relationship between the two sides has improved a lot after several months of adjustment, it is undoubtedly a pipe dream to think that it will go back to the way it was before.

"There's a temple? Then let's go and pay respects!"

After hearing what Bajie said, Tang Seng spoke.

On the journey to the West, whenever Tang Seng passed by a temple, he would go in to pay homage to the gods to express his piety.

Everyone was already used to it, so they didn't object.

However, Cheng Long still raised an objection and said, "Sanzang, that temple looks a bit strange. I think we should not waste our time there."

At this time, Bajie fell from midair and echoed, "Master, look at the architecture of that temple, it is a bit similar to the Great Leiyin Temple! And on the temple's plaque, there are a few words written as the Small Leiyin Temple. When I was on duty in heaven, I never heard of any Small Leiyin Temple there."

Upon hearing this, Sha Seng was surprised and said, "Brother, the people in this temple are of extraordinary status! They actually dared to use the name of the temple as Little Leiyin Temple!"

"Well, who says it isn't?"

"Then you have to go!"

Tang Seng decisively dismounted and slowly walked towards Xiao Xitian.

"Xiao Leiyin Temple!? So, I have arrived here without realizing it?" Cheng Long's heart moved slightly when he heard the name of the temple mentioned by Bajie.

He remembered the story of this small Leiyin Temple very clearly.

There is a monster in the temple, who calls himself the Yellow Eyebrow Patriarch. His true identity is a boy under the seat of Maitreya Buddha. He stole two treasures, the golden cymbals and the human bag, and went to the human world.

These two treasures were quite extraordinary and caused great trouble to Tang Seng and his disciples.

I guess they should be two innate spiritual treasures. As for their specific grades, you can only understand them after seeing them.

But what is certain is that it will never be an innate treasure or a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. At most, it will be a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, or even very likely a medium or low-grade one.

Because the reinforcements that Monkey King brought in were all using acquired spiritual treasures that were refined after birth, and they were trapped in the human bag, so they were also suspected of being slacking off.

Cheng Long and his group walked and stopped, chatting occasionally, and time seemed to pass very quickly. In the evening, they finally arrived at the gate of Xiao Leiyin Temple.

It's really like running a dead horse over a mountain!

In fact, halfway through the journey, Tang Seng regretted getting off the horse too early.

Ever since the little white dragon turned into a white horse to serve as his legs, he actually hasn't walked much. He has always been on horseback, and would only dismount and walk when his butt hurts.

Although it is said that one should take one step at a time, in fact, the Buddha still gave Tang Seng a lot of convenience.

"Little Leiyin Temple? I'd like to go in and see who is so bold as to use the name of Leiyin Temple!" When he arrived at the gate of Little Leiyin Temple and saw the temple which was almost identical to the Big Leiyin Temple in Lingshan Mountain, Zhu Bajie muttered in a low voice.

Before Tang Seng could push open the temple door, a breeze blew by and the temple door opened by itself.

"Master, be careful..." It could be seen that this temple was very strange. Sha Seng immediately put down his luggage, took out the magic staff to subdue demons, and protected Tang Seng in front of him.

Zhu Bajie also took out his nine-toothed rake and protected Tang Seng on the other side, also protecting the person in front of him.

Because the two brothers knew very well that if there really were monsters in this temple, and if they dared to use the name Xiao Leiyin Temple, then the other party must not be an ordinary person, so it would not be a big mistake to be careful.

Cheng Long took the lead and walked in front, directly entering the Xiao Leiyin Temple.

There is some darkness in front of my eyes.

However, it did not prevent him from observing the scene inside. The hall was indeed magnificent.

The statues of Buddha, Bodhisattva and Arhats from all directions stand here, looking extremely majestic.

Ordinary temples have their own statues of Buddha, Bodhisattva and the like.

For example, the previous Guanyin Temple enshrined Guanyin Bodhisattva!

However, in this small Leiyin Temple, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and even Arhats are enshrined?

Without saying anything else, just looking at the large number of statues, this temple is worthy of being called the Little Leiyin Temple.

"Master, this temple is not simple! If it is not a powerful person with supernatural powers, it must be a peerless demon!" After Zhu Bajie took a look at the scene in the small Leiyin Temple, his face was full of surprise.

Anyone who dares to act like this must either have a good background or be very capable.

It is best to be careful.

"Master understands!"

After hearing what Zhu Bajie said, Tang Seng nodded solemnly.

At this point, the journey to obtain the scriptures is already halfway through, and all the pilgrims have gained a certain degree of experience, including Cheng Long.

Tang Seng has been captured so many times, if he still doesn’t learn his lesson, he would be stupid.

Cheng Long, who knew the inside story, felt relieved.

The Yellow-browed Patriarch was a boy under the seat of Maitreya Buddha. This calamity was caused by the will of Maitreya Buddha. It was naturally harmless for him to build such a small Leiyin Temple.

"Tang Monk, Sun Wukong, you have come to the Little Leiyin Temple and seen the Buddha, why don't you kneel down!?"

Just when Cheng Long and others had their own thoughts in their minds, a majestic voice suddenly sounded in the hall where Bodhisattvas and Arhats were enshrined.

"Who are you, evil monster? How dare you impersonate the Tathagata of the West? Come out if you have the guts!" As this majestic voice sounded, Cheng Long slammed the golden cudgel in his hand to the ground, showing an attitude of "I'm here to fight you".

"Oh, I thought you were the Great Sage Equaling Heaven? You were banished to Liangjie Mountain and became a small mountain god for five hundred years! Even if you were a dog, you should have learned your lesson! In front of so many Buddha and Bodhisattva statues, how dare you be so presumptuous?"

In the Little Leiyin Temple, the majestic voice continued to sound, scolding Sun Wukong.

The words he said were very rough, and most people would not be able to stand it.

Cheng Long was not angry at all. Instead, he felt like laughing. Those who could say these words were just small characters who didn't know the inside story. The powerful people who really knew the inside story understood that the Jade Emperor demoted him to the mortal world, which was actually breaking the rules of the game and protecting him!

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't come out, I will destroy your little Leiyin Temple!"

Cheng Long pretended to be angry and yelled at the demons in the temple.

It was obvious that what he said was not just talk. If the Yellow-browed King hiding in the dark did not come out, he would definitely destroy everything.

The many Buddha statues and Bodhisattvas in the main hall were transformed from demons, and each of them was very brave.

It doesn't matter that Maitreya Buddha is standing behind the Yellow-browed King, but these demons in the Tribulation Realm and the Earthly Immortal Realm don't even have a backer. They are pretending to be Buddha and Bodhisattva, clearly seeking death.

As Cheng Long finished speaking, the person in the dark obviously knew his character and did not dare to hide anymore. He walked out directly from the dark.

A figure slowly emerged from the darkness. He looked to be about thirty years old, with yellow hair and eyebrows. He held a mace in his hand and looked down at Tang Seng and his disciples. He said, "Why don't you kneel down when you see me?"

"Is it really a monster?"

Before the Yellow-browed King showed up, Tang Seng still held out hope that the owner of the Little Leiyin Temple was a Buddhist master. Now it seems that he is clearly an extremely daring demon king!

"Since you have seen my Buddha, why don't you bow down to me?"

Suddenly, a sinister shout was heard from the right side of the hall.

"Since you have seen my Buddha, why don't you bow down to me?"

"..."

Immediately afterwards, the demons that had transformed into Buddhas and Bodhisattvas revealed their true faces one after another, grinning and shouting at Cheng Long and his group.

"Oh my god, there are so many monsters!"

Zhu Bajie was frightened by these hideous and murderous monsters, and subconsciously tightened the Nine-toothed Rake in his hand. There were too many monsters, and if a fight broke out, it would be difficult to take good care of his master.

"Brother, when the fight starts, I will protect the master, and you kill the monsters, don't hold back." Sha Seng also became nervous for a rare time, and his pair of tiger eyes looked around at the monsters with piercing intent.

"Namo Amitabha!"

Tang Seng silently chanted the Buddha's name to give himself courage.

"Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, old man with yellow eyebrows, do you dare to follow me out for a fight?" Cheng Long's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring at the Yellow Eyebrow King.

It was obvious that he was going to let off the demons that were blocking his way again.

It cannot be said that the boy under the seat of Maitreya Buddha cannot be beaten to death, but there is no need to do so. After all, he has only been on earth for a few days, and the demons under his command are cannon fodder gathered nearby, and no one will care about them.

Just leave it to Bajie.

"Why don't you dare?"

The Yellow-browed King, holding a mace, flew out without hesitation.

By the time Cheng Long arrived high in the sky outside the temple, the group of demons that surrounded Tang Seng and his disciples could no longer hold back and took action.

Since they were all demons from the Earthly Immortal Realm and the Tribulation Crossing Realm, Bajie and Sha Seng did not hold back and used killing moves. In an instant, broken limbs and blood were flying everywhere in the hall of the Little Leiyin Temple, which made Tang Seng's scalp tingle.

At the same time, the battle outside the hall gradually got into full swing. The two sides exchanged dozens of moves, but the old monster with yellow eyebrows still showed no signs of being defeated.

Being able to become the disciple of Maitreya Buddha, this Yellow-browed Patriarch must have some strength.

Of course, it was mainly because Cheng Long was releasing the sea. If the six-eared macaque could be immobilized, there was no reason why the Yellow Eyebrowed King, whose cultivation was not even at the Daluo realm, could not be immobilized... (End of this chapter)
