Chapter 444: Benbo Erba and Babo Erben(1/2)
The country of worship.
When Tang Sanzang and his party entered the city, it was as sunset as the west mountain was setting, and there was also a strange prosperity in the city at dusk.
As people come and go, you can see the stability and prosperity of their lives from the smiles of the pedestrians. There are monks wearing shackles and locks on the street from time to time, begging for transformation along the door, which is really unbearable.
After Tang Sanzang and his group came in, the monk's outfit made countless local people look curious.
The monks wearing shackles and locks were constantly looking like they were begging along the streets, but they were a bit weird, especially the monks.
After seeing this, Zhu Bajie scratched his head and couldn't help but smile and asked, "That monk, are you from that temple? Why are you all wearing shackles and locks here?"
These monks were not afraid of seeing Zhu Bajie. After all, there were monsters everywhere in Xiniu Hezhou, so it was naturally not rare. Moreover, ordinary fairies were not very powerful. There were also many monks and martial arts people in the human race.
"Grandpa, we are the monk who was betrayed by Jinguang Temple." An elderly monk couldn't help but sigh after seeing Zhu Bajie asking.
Zhu Bajie was also very proficient in people's hearts. He immediately took out a few taels of silver from his arms and threw it into the bowl in front of the old monk.
The old monk was older, and naturally he was a human being. He had no trace of the broken bowl. The few pieces of silver had disappeared, but instead he had changed it to three copper plates.
The old monk looked at Zhu Bajie with a smile on his face and told him where this place was. After all, the money was not thrown away for nothing, and the other party's expression was obviously from another place, so he naturally came to inquire about the situation.
"Grandpa, this city is called Ji Sai Kingdom, which is a great country in Xibian. At that time, there were four barbarians paying tribute to the south, Yuetuo Kingdom, Gaochang Kingdom, East and West Liang Kingdom, and Xibenbo Kingdom. They pay tribute to beautiful jade pearls and beautiful concubines and horses every year.
If the Sai Kingdom does not fight and does not go to conquer, other countries will naturally become the superior country."
It is naturally not wrong to call grandpa. After all, the other party is born as a fairy at first glance, and the fact that the fairy can turn into human forms has been at least hundreds of years, so he is naturally older than him.
When Zhu Bajie heard this, he immediately laughed, but did not mock him. The mortals sat in the courtyard and did not dare to provoke tribute every year, and ended up becoming a great country in the Western State.
"Haha, since you are the Shangbang, I think you, the king, are righteous, civil and military, but why are the monks here all guilty?"
Zhu Bajie asked casually with a smile, but the old monk shook his head and sighed when he heard this.
"Grandpa, this place is not virtuous, not good at martial arts, nor is it good at martial arts, nor is it certainly a righteous king. We are all monks from Jinguang Temple. We used to be covered with auspicious clouds on the pagoda in the temple, and the auspicious mists rise high, and the rays of light are shining at night. Someone has seen it thousands of miles away.
Under the strange phenomenon, the four countries have no different views. Therefore, they think they are the gods of the Heavenly Palace, and the four barbarians pay tribute to them."
"However, three years ago, on the day of the Meng Qiuchu, at midnight, a bloody rain fell. At dawn, every family was afraid and every household was sad. The ministers reported to the king, not knowing that God had committed any retribution. At that time, the Taoist priests were invited to hold a ceremony.
The monk read the scriptures and replied to God. Who knew that the golden pagoda in my temple was dirty? Foreign countries have not come to pay tribute in the past two years. My king even wanted to conquer the four barbarians."
After the old monk's complaint, Tang Sanzang, who was riding a white dragon horse behind him, suddenly laughed in his heart after hearing this. The old monk was full of resentment. After all, when he saw that this monk was probably a respected existence in the temple, now
But at this point, how can we not be resentful?
The old monk shook his head and sighed, "All officials said that the monks in my temple stole treasures from the tower, so there was no auspicious clouds and auspicious mist. The four barbarians did not pay attention to the reason. They ordered the corrupt officials to pick me up.
Wait for the monk to take it down, and torture it in all kinds of pursuits."
When he talked about this, the old monk finally saw the dagger. He knelt down directly at Tang Sanzang behind Zhu Bajie, kowtowed and said, "Master is here, how dare we deceive our hearts and steal the treasure in the tower! Grandpa Wanwang
Only when you have mercy, birds of feathers gather together, and when you are in groups, you will give up your compassion, and spread your magic power to save our lives!"
It turned out that the old monk, who was a man, saw that Tang Sanzang was extraordinary. After all, the one who could conquer the two monsters was definitely the holy monk. After all, they were all monks, so they were naturally considered to be the same type of people. Of course, he had to seize the opportunity to pray for this.
A glimmer of hope.
Zhu Bajie, who was standing beside him, squinted his eyes and looked at the old monk's thoughts, while Tang Sanzang smiled and shook his head after seeing it. Only real experience can he experience the style of various countries along the way of Journey to the West and the hearts of thousands of people.
There is no saying that monks are good people. People have seven emotions and six desires. If the treasures in your temple are lost, how can the king not blame him?
Moreover, the loss of this treasure has affected the status of this country, which directly allowed the four barbarians to find a reason to use these four small countries to join forces to stop paying tribute. How could this king not be angry? He was angry but could not let him go.
If you take the blame yourself, naturally these monks will become the ones who take the blame. Otherwise, wouldn’t they say that he is a fool in the future?
Looking at the old monk, Tang Sanzang, on the white dragon horse, clasped his hands calmly and said, "Amitabha, I came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures in the name of the King of Tang and Buddha Tathagata. Since I have arrived in your country,
Of course, I have to change Guan Wen with you."
When the old monk heard this, he was filled with excitement, "Since he is under the name of Western Buddhas, the holy monk should be a family. When he burns incense in a temple, worships Buddhas in a temple, and sweeps the pagoda when he sees a pagoda. The one I worships in the Golden Light Temple is the West.
Tathagata Buddha.”
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang smiled calmly and shook his head and said, "Although I am a Buddhist, I believe in all Buddhas, not a single Buddha."
In a word, please don’t use great righteousness to suppress me. I believe in the Buddha of Tathagata, but I also believe in other Buddhas. I worked hard to travel, and you asked me to sweep the tower for you, thinking beautifully.
After hearing this, the old monk suddenly showed a hint of loss in his eyes. He thought that the other party was a holy monk with magic power, but it came from the so-called Dongtu Tang Dynasty. If he asked the other party to go to their temple, then the king would be the one who could not tell the truth.
After meeting, we must not be better to them because of this.
I have to say that there has never been good for no reason, nor hatred for no reason, and everything has cause and effect.
Tang Sanzang glanced at the other party calmly and continued to rush forward with his disciples, and the old monk sighed helplessly. Now he could only hope that the other party could see that they were all monks and let the king treat them at that time.
Just a little punishment.
When Tang Sanzang walked towards the post station, he also saw the high tower of Jinguang Temple not far away.
I saw this tower, leaning against the Han Dynasty, suddenly in the air. It was called the Five-Colored Glazed Tower, which is thirteen stories high.
"Hehe, Master, look at the tower so magnificent and so high, it seems that the king has also put a lot of effort into it. Unfortunately, it involves honor. How could the emperor make himself stigmatized?"
Zhu Bajie saw the most thoroughly. No matter whether it was a treasure stolen by the monk, since it caused the small countries around him to not pay tribute, it was the fault of this generation of emperors. But will the emperor take his own fault on his head?
It is normal to take off your anger, and even Zhu Bajie smiled heartlessly. This king is pretty good. If it were a little more iron-blooded, he would just start killing him.
After leaving the post station, I looked like a monk with magic power, and came from the so-called Tang Dynasty of the Heavenly Kingdom. The postmaster immediately treated him respectfully and asked him to report to the palace.
After all, this already involves between countries, not individuals.
Tang Sanzang came up and moved out according to the orders of the King of Tang and Buddha Tathagata. The country must be treated solemnly between countries, and the Buddha is more cautious.
In the spacious and luxurious inn house, exquisite and sumptuous meals were served, and the postman was even more polite. At least no one wanted to lose his etiquette in the reception, otherwise it would not be them who were embarrassed, but their own country.
Under the moonlight, when Tang Sanzang and his disciples were eating vegetarian food in the room, Sun Wukong's eyes blinked and he couldn't help laughing: "Master, there is actually a demonic energy on the top of the five-color glass tower in the distance. It seems
Maybe it was the monster who made trouble and wronged these monks."
Now Sun Wukong has also learned about the situation of Journey to the West. He no longer had the mentality of having less things at the beginning. Instead, he had to go to the scene when he saw things and quickly got enough of them.
Difficulty is enough.
Zhu Bajie, who was standing beside him, said happily after seeing this: "Brother Monkey, looking at the demonic energy, you can go and inquire about the situation first, and don't bother to provoke the ancient big old man again."
When Sun Wukong heard Zhu Bajie's words, he immediately slapped the Kuaizi in the other party's hand and scolded, "You idiot, you really can't spit out ivory from your mouth."
They are also tired. Whenever they come to an old age, they are just a foil. This is still a trivial matter. They are afraid that others are coming to find trouble. Although they will not be in danger, no one wants to be abused.
At this time, Tang Sanzang was also secretly gurgling. The Houtu Witch Clan did not arrange it here. In this way, it was either normal or belonged to the demon clan. After all, now only the two Lich clans have this confidence, so of course they cannot be ruled out.
Seeing this journey to the West is so lively, the People's Education and the Ancient Sect are mixed together.
Five-colored glass tower.
I saw Sun Wukong stepping on the clouds while looking at the night, and Zhu Bajie next to him grinned and smiled.
I saw two little monsters sitting in the heart of the tower on the top of the glass tower, with a plate of tributes and the like in front of them, a jar of wine and a small bowl in front of them.
It turned out that two little monsters were drinking with a stick-scissors. Zhu Bajie, who was covered by clouds outside, suddenly grinned and whispered: "Brother Monkey, these two little monsters are very proud. They are drinking with a stick-scissors, and they are drinking with a stick-scissors more free and comfortable than the old pig.
Wait for the old pig to scare you."
In the dim pagoda, the two little monsters were flushed and excited.
"Pengbo Erba, drink quickly, you lost."
"Okay, Baboer will be in this time. You are so good, I'll drink it."
The two little demons in the lake were drinking with excited smiles on their faces. Suddenly, the dazzling golden Buddha light flashed. The demons turned their heads and were stunned, their expressions became dull.
I saw a golden Buddha appearing in front of the two people under the Buddha's light. There was a swastika in front of the big Buddha's chest. At this time, he looked at the two demons with a majestic expression, and his golden lips began to spit out the majestic Buddha.
sound.
"The evil spirit, you dare to be arrogant in my Buddhist sect!"
After a quick look, the wine bowls in the hands of the two little demons blurted out and fell to the ground and turned into pieces. The two little demons even had pale faces and their bodies trembled and kneeled on the ground.
"Grandpa Buddha, please spare your life."
"The Buddha is merciful, the little demon really doesn't know, so spare my life."
"Woooo, we both dare not."
Benboerba and Baboerben never thought they would meet Buddha. The two little monsters appeared in front of him were stunned, and then they begged for mercy incoherently.
However, the Buddha, who was transformed by Zhu Bajie's technique, looked at the two demons calmly, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up as the two demons kept buzzing their heads.
"Monster, this Buddha passed by this place in Taixu, watching the demonic aura lingering, and the treasures on this pagoda were lost and harmed. So many monks in Jinshan Temple suffered. I guess it was the two of you who did it."
After Zhu Bajie turned into a Buddha, he immediately stunned the two little demons, and then shook his head in panic.
"Grandpa Buddha, how can we two demons have this ability?"
"Yes, it's not what we did, it's done by the Nine-Headed Worm Demon King. We're all wronged."
"Yes, I was sent by the Bibotan Hall of Halloween Dragon King from Lushishan Mountain. His name is Benboerba, and my name is Baboerben. He is a catfish monster, and I am a black fish spirit. Because of the old dragon of Halloween
He gave birth to a daughter, called Princess All Saint. The princess is beautiful and has twenty talents."
"A few years ago, a demon king with nine-headed insects came here, with great magical powers. The next year, he came here with the Dragon King, showed his magic power, and a bloody rain, which dirtyed the pagoda and stole the relics and Buddha treasures in the pagoda. The princess went to the pagoda again.
In front of the Lingxiao Palace in Luotian, he stole the Queen Mother's nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum grass and raised it under the pond, with golden light and bright sunshine. Recently, he heard that a Sun Wukong went to the West to seek scriptures, saying that he had great supernatural powers and was looking for people along the way.
