Chapter 472
After listening to the self-introduction of the four people, Lin Yan suddenly understood.
In Journey to the West, he heard about the content of this section.
Mu Xian'an's talk about poetry can be regarded as a very unique difficulty among the eighty-one difficulties in Journey to the West.
Looking at the old men with white hair and white beards in front of me, they should be the four protagonists in this difficulty.
"The four of you brought me here, don't know what the purpose is?"
Lin Yan asked lightly.
"Haha, there is no other intention. I just heard the monsters in the mountains talk about it by chance, saying that a group of people came from the mountains recently, and they looked quite extraordinary. After observing it, I found that your weapon was majestic, but the water flowed deep, and it looked like a talented person. However, your apprentices looked a little difficult to get close to, so..."
"So I was helpless, but I was eager to get to know you. After thinking about it, this method would be the least harmful to the harmony."
Gu Zhigong and Ling Kongzi spoke to each other.
Lin Yan frowned slightly.
Just now when Sun Wukong came to the front of the team to open the way, he rode a white horse and was at the end of the team. A faint fragrance came from somewhere. When he came to his senses, he was taken to this place.
"How could a few of them be the thousand-year-old tree monsters in this mountain. What they see and know is far beyond me, who live for only a few decades, come up with this?"
Lin Yan asked.
"Hey, I can't say that, Lord Xuanzang, your reputation is not bad among the demon clan."
Gu Zhigong said with a smile.
"It's not that I, Tang Monk, have a good reputation, but that Tang Monk's meat is famous?"
Lin Yan sneered.
"Haha, please don't misunderstand that we are tree demons, so we are really not interested in the meat of Tang Monk who can live forever after eating."
"Yes, we are all old people who have lived for thousands of years. We have long been indifferent to things like longevity and boundlessness. The rest of our time is just to make ourselves live happily."
Fu Yunsou and Jin Jiegong also continued.
"When the demon clan saw me, Tang Seng, they all wanted to eat raw meat and drink blood, but they were unique."
Lin Yan smiled faintly and said.
"As the saying goes, Taoists are different, why isn't the case with the demon clan? There are bad monsters, good monsters, monsters that are rushing towards you, and naturally there are monsters that only covet the ink in your belly."
Gu Zhigong stroked his beard and smiled heartily.
"Your Excellency is exhausted all the way, so why not take a rest here, drink some sake and hot tea with us, and talk about the wind and moon."
Ling Kongzi said, adding some hot tea to the teacup in front of Lin Yan.
Lin Yan gently lifted the teacup with his hand, put it on the corner of his lips and felt the tea warmth, and then sniffed it with his nose.
“Good tea.”
Lin Yan sighed clearly and said.
After saying that, he drank the tea in the teacup in five times.
At this moment, a breeze came from the outside world, and it was slightly cool, but it aroused Lin Yan's long-lasting thoughts.
Looking out through the window, what you see is not a thorny land, but a wonderful scenery of mountains and flowing water.
Not only that, the scenery is still changing, just like this temple is constantly moving, sometimes with green peaks and green mountains on all sides, hills on both sides, sometimes with clear water like a mirror, green mountains floating in the water, reflections are graceful, and the scenery on both sides is like a gallery of hundreds of miles...
The only thing that remains unchanged is the apricot tree next to the temple, which seems to be parading among the mountains along with the temple. The petals and branches stretch into the temple, bringing in the refreshing fragrance.
“Where are we now?”
Lin Yan asked lightly.
“Haha, there is no place to live.”
Jinjie Gong responded with a smile.
"Not that, in the world, who is not entrusting the mayflies in the world, a grain of water is like swimming among mountains and seas, wouldn't it be so happy?"
Gu Zhigong also added, drinking the hot tea in his palm and enjoying the breeze that brushed across his body happily.
"The timing is rare, why not let me give you a riddle?"
Ling Kongzi stood up with a smile and said to the people.
"Hahaha, so good, what do you think?"
"Come out quickly, if you can't hit it, you will be fined."
"Hahaha, I'm afraid you won't do it? Tell me quickly. If you answer correctly, Ling Kongzi, you will be willing to accept the loss."
The four tree demons can be said to be a fairy who has lived for thousands of years. Happiness is that simple.
"Hisser Xuanzang, what do you think? Why don't you solve the puzzle with me?"
Ling Kongzi asked.
If Lin Yan did not join, he would inevitably be hurt, so he agreed silently.
"Haha, since that's the case, I'll give you four riddles, and each of the four can choose one to answer."
After a brief explanation of Lingkongzi, he released the riddle.
"The lotus in my chest is the autumnal jade of the West Lake; the clear sky is bright at night, and I have just entered the environment. I guess the four Chinese herbal medicines. Does anyone know?"
The three old men, Gu Zhigong, Jin Jiegong, and Fu Yunsou, all smiled and stroked their beards, and fell into thoughts.
Soon, Jinjie Gong took the lead in getting the answer—
"Haha, I thought of it!" Jin Jie Gong shook his white eyebrows and said, "The lotus in his chest is a heart-piercing lotus?"
"Haha, I am worthy of being Brother Jinjie, who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and has extraordinary literary thoughts."
Ling Kongzi smiled and praised, which was also the correct answer.
When he saw that King Jinjie gave one, Gu Zhigong rubbed his beard and quietly got an idea.
"Haha, if that's the case, West Lake Qiuying must have been a medicine related to Jianghang... Well, but Hang Baiju?"
"That's right! That's right! Brother Gu Zhi is also amazing, hahaha!"
Ling Kongzi smiled and poured a cup of tea for Gu Zhigong.
"Since that's the case, I'm not willing to fall behind. The sky is bright at night... Since it's clear, how can there be a bright moon?"
Fu Yunshu said carefully and kept thinking about it.
Suddenly, as if he had learned something, his hand trembled excitedly and said, "I seem to have understood one or two! The clear sky does not mean the day, but describes the sky without clouds and clear! Yes?"
"Haha, that's right."
"Even so, Ye Ming could easily understand... the answer is the starry sky?"
"Haha, although Brother Fu Yun has become a little late, it's very good."
Ling Kongzi smiled and patted Fu Yunsou on the shoulder.
Now, only Lin Yan is left, and there is no answer yet.
"How is it? Brother Xuanzang, do you have the answer?"
Lingkongzi asked with a smile.
"Does it mean the first time I enter a strange place?"
"Yes, that's what it means."
"Then, the answer should be very obvious..."
Lin Yan said, looking into the distance, and said in his heart lightly: "Just like this strange place here, the raw land, also known as the raw land yellow."
