my relatives are a bit much

Chapter 958
"Great Sage, your knowledge is not as good as that of a mortal like me!"

Tang Bohu glanced at Sun Wukong who was cheating and playing tricks, and threatened: "This purple gold gourd is a magic weapon refined by Taishang Laojun. As long as you put a piece of Taishang Laojun's order on it, you can make it as long as you want." It will also turn into a stream of condensed water within an hour."

Monkey King took a few steps back in surprise.

Afterwards, he stepped forward to Zijin Gourd and said: "Bohu! Is this really a magic weapon refined by Laojun?"

Tang Bohu said bluntly: "Not only the purple gold gourd, but also the seven-star sword, the mutton fat jade bottle, and the plantain fan that has not yet been revealed, and the golden rope are all magic weapons refined by Laojun."

"How do you know so clearly?" Monkey King was surprised.

"I guess." Tang Bohu raised his eyebrows.

During the conversation between the two, Tang Seng took Zhu Bajie, who was red and hot, and led the white dragon horse out of the cave. Seeing that Wukong was also rescued, he immediately smiled and said, "Wukong, you came out just in time, let's go on the road!"

"Where is Erlang God?" Tang Bohu asked.

"He said to stay and finish, let's go first..."

"Oh, let's go first."

After a group of people left.

Erlang Shen Yang Jian pulled out the Silver Horn King, confirmed that the other party was not dead, picked up the mutton-fat jade bottle on the Silver Horn King, and wanted to leave.

"Yang Jian!"

Not even a few steps away.

The elusive Taishang Laojun appeared in front of Yang Jian with a smile.

Yang Jian took out the jade purification bottle and said with a smile: "Uncle, this mutton fat jade purification bottle is similar to the style of Guanyin Bodhisattva. I thought she left it behind, and I was just about to send the jade purification bottle back when you came. If that’s the case, then I won’t bother with it.”

Taishang Laojun took the jade purification bottle and said: "This jade purification bottle was refined by me. Its function is similar to that of Guanyin. It's normal for you to be mistaken."

"Uncle Master, I'll leave first if I have nothing to do."

When Shun Baobao was caught, Yang Jian felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to leave here immediately.

"Well, let's go!"

Taishang Laojun didn't care about Yang Jian, he waved his hand and let Yang Jian leave.

However, when he woke up the golden and silver boy, gathered up the magic weapon, and was about to return to the heaven, he found that one thing was missing.

The purple gourd is gone.

Do the math.

Taishang Laojun understood the cause and effect, and couldn't help laughing.

"This Tang Bohu actually followed the old Taoist purple gourd."

"Forget it, I'll give it to you to give Dongjun some face."

……

With the help of Yang Jian, they survived the catastrophe, and the master and apprentice went back on the road. After a few days, they came to a place called Wuji Kingdom, and fished out the king's body from the well of the temple where he was staying.

Because the king's body was not decomposed and his soul was still there, the monk Tang sent Sun Wukong to ask for the elixir to help the king of Wuji Kingdom return to life.

afterwards.

Tang Bohu, together with his master and apprentice, expelled the green-haired lion king who pretended to be the king, slept the queen, and beat the prince out of the palace.

In fact, Tang Seng's original intention was to kill the green-haired lion king, but unfortunately he was not strong enough, so he couldn't help him for a while. In the middle of the fight, Manjushri ran over again, explaining the reason with a superior posture, regardless of Tang Seng and others. He waved his hand and took the blue-haired lion king back.

The practice of Manjusri Bodhisattva made Tang Seng doubt Buddhism.

The horse is a disaster for the world, sleeps with other people's wives, beats other people's children, and there is no accountability at all, which makes Tang Seng very sad.

I even began to doubt whether it was right for me to go to the west to learn scriptures after all the hard work?
Because along the way.

He found that the closer to the West, the harder people's lives were, and they were far inferior to those in the East and the Tang Dynasty...

That day, while sleeping in the wilderness at night, Tang Seng got out of his tent, found Tang Bohu resting under a tree, and raised his doubts.

Hearing this, Tang Bohu smiled and said, "Brother Tang, you don't really think naively that a few volumes of Mahayana Buddhism can make the people happy and healthy, and live a happy life with no worries about food and clothing and complete children, right?"

"Is not it?"

Tang Seng's expression was a little confused. If not, why would he have made such a great wish to go to the Western Heaven to obtain the true scriptures?

Tang Bohu restrained his smile, and said solemnly: "Brother Tang, what Manjushri has done today is already a very obvious signal. Buddhism doesn't care whether the people are suffering or not. It only cares about incense and admiration, and preaches outdated teachings."

Tang Seng asked: "Why is it inappropriate?"

"Letting believers chant scriptures and chant Buddha every day, do not do production, and do not pay taxes, is the greatest damage to society. If everyone is a Buddhist and chant sutras and chant Buddha every day, who will plant the land? Who will weave the clothes? To maintain national security and order Who will pay the taxes?"

"This……"

The question directed at the soul left Tang Seng speechless.

Not producing, not paying taxes, and chanting sutras and chanting Buddha's name all day long are indeed the shortcomings of Buddhism. There is no way to correct this. Unlike Taoism, which only accepts disciples who are talented and talented, they want all kinds of disciples.

After Taoist disciples get started, they need to get close to nature.

In other words, people in Taoism need to be self-reliant and do not need believers to worship before they start bigu.

Of course, the Taoist sect will not stop believers from donating incense money, but the demand is definitely not as strong as that of the Buddhist sect. At least there is no need to give Buddha a golden body, which wastes a lot of social resources.

"Brother Tang, although Buddhism has various disadvantages, I refuse to deny that the Tripitaka of Daleiyin Temple has achieved great Dharma, which has a great inspiration for monks and believers in Datang."

"There is a saying..."

"By the way, that's what I said. If you feel that your home is not good, then find a way to build it and change it. The teachings of the Tang Temple have drawbacks, so when you go back to learn the scriptures, you can use the teachings of the eminent monks. Prestige, get rid of the dross, keep its essence, and change the Buddhism of the Tang Dynasty into a temple suitable for the national conditions of the East."

Tang Bohu's persuasion made Tang Seng gradually regain his fighting spirit. He bowed and saluted, and said gratefully: "Brother Bohu, listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. I know what to do in the future."

"It's good to understand clearly, it's not in vain for me to waste my time."

As Pan Haodong's avatar, Tang Bohu actually had a father-son relationship with Tang Seng. Therefore, he took special care of Tang Seng on the way to learn Buddhist scriptures. He told Tang Seng all the important principles and kept nothing to himself.

Tang Seng's talent was already excellent. After receiving the influence of Pan Haodong, he had a strong learning ability. Every time Tang Bohu taught a great truth, he could easily absorb it and turn it into his own knowledge.

This also made Tang Seng's cultivation level increase at an incredible rate every day.

I don't know.

August [-]th is here.

Tang Seng and his party voluntarily left their luggage and handed it over to Bailongma to take care of it. They took Monkey King's somersault cloud and rushed to the Temple of the Sun.

Maybe it was because Feng Dian had been sleeping in the open for a long time, and when they had the opportunity to eat a big meal and improve their diet, Tang Monk Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong woke up very early in the morning. When the sky was slightly bright, they came to the Sun Temple.

At this time, Pan Haodong was still sleeping on the bed with Chang'e's delicate body in his arms!

After working all night last night, the husband and wife had a bit of physical exertion and needed to take a break.

"Brother Sanzang, you are coming too!"

Li Lizhi, who had already lived in the Temple of the Sun for a day, walked into the yard holding her younger sister's little hand, saw Tang Seng and his party, and said with a smile: "Sizi and I are going to the kitchen to have breakfast, do you want to eat something together? "

"Will you want to..."
