Journey to the West: Funeral Mission to the West

Tang Sanzan was worried that there was no place to rest when it was dark, so he agreed immediately after hearing what he said.

A group of people drove a few monks along the way, and soon arrived at the gate of a large monastery, with a large plaque hanging on it, and a letter was written--Decree to build Jinguang Temple to protect the country.

This temple covers an extremely wide area, with a towering main hall and countless towers. There is even a tall tower at the back. The tower soars into the sky and is very majestic!

It's just that this huge monastery has a sense of desolation at this moment, less fireworks, and more dilapidated.

But it is not difficult to see that this place has indeed been brilliant and lively before.

Everyone was seated, and the abbot came out from inside. This was an old monk with a haggard face. Hearing that Tang Sanzan and others were the saviors from the Tang Dynasty, the old monk immediately stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Eminent monk, please be the master for us." ah!"

Tang Sanzan wondered: "Talk about what fun you have first...cough cough, let's talk about grievances."

The abbot said: "Eminent monk, this city is called Jisai Kingdom, which is a big country in Xibang. There is Yuetuo Kingdom in the south; Gaochang Kingdom in the north; Xiliang Kingdom in the east; and Benbo Kingdom in the west. These countries recite to Jisai The country pays tribute to beautiful jade, pearls, concubines, and horses...in exchange for peace."

Tang Sanzan frowned and said, "The Xiliang country you are talking about is the daughter country of Xiliang?"

The abbot shook his head and said, "No, it's the Xiliang Kingdom, not the Xiliang Daughter Kingdom. Uh... is there a Xiliang Daughter Kingdom in this world?"

The abbot looked puzzled.

Tang Sanzan loosened his fist when he heard that it was not Xiliang Daughter Country.Otherwise, let him know that whoever dares to force Xiliang Nvguo to pay tribute to Concubine Jiao, he will kill her: "Oh, it's okay, let's continue."

The six-eared macaque asked curiously: "This Ji Sai country is so strong, presumably the king of the army is also a wise monarch, and he has a group of civil and military virtuous men, right?"

The abbot shook his head and said: "The eminent monk does not know that the civil servants and military officials of the Sai State are not good, and the monarch is not a man of benevolence and morality. On the pagoda behind my Jinguang Temple, there was originally a relic of an eminent monk enshrined. Every day, the auspicious clouds are shrouded, and there are thousands of auspicious colors, and the sun is even more generous at night, which can be seen for thousands of miles;

It is precisely because of this vision that the four countries all believe that Jisai Kingdom is a place protected by the gods and taken care of by the Buddha, so they surrender to Jisai Kingdom and regard it as the capital of Tianfu!

But three years ago, on Meng Qiushuo's day, at midnight, the sky was suddenly clouded with bloody rain.

At dawn, every family was afraid and every household panicked.

The public played His Majesty the King.

The king immediately invited Taoist priests to practice and monks to recite scriptures...

However, no matter what everyone did, the blood on the golden pagoda was still coagulated, and there was no more precious light.

Due to these two difficulties, foreign countries stopped paying tribute, and the country gradually declined.

His Majesty the King wanted to conquer the Quartet and force them to continue to pay tribute, but a courtier said: "The monks in my temple stole the treasures in the pagoda, so there is no auspicious cloud and auspiciousness, so foreign countries do not come to pay tribute."

That Hunjun didn't investigate at all, and directly ordered the monks in my monastery to be arrested, interrogated batch after batch, and beaten to death batch after batch... By now, two generations of monks of three generations in my monastery have died.

Hey……

Now, it is finally time to attack the poor monk and the youngest disciple of this generation.

In order to prevent us from escaping, they all put on shackles, and some were tied to pillars...

High monk, I beg you to use your magic power to save our lives.

"

Tang Sanzan gnawed melon seeds and listened to the old monk crying and talking. After listening, he clicked his lips and said: "This is quite interesting..."

Zhu Gangli said: "Master, this matter sounds quite troublesome. The point is that we don't know the reason for this matter. Why is there no relic, and who took it? There is no clue at all. I said, don’t worry about it, let’s eat and drink enough, let’s go west.”

Upon hearing this, the old monk quickly kowtowed and said, "Eminent monk, please save us!"

At this time, the monks outside also heard it, and they all knelt and kowtowed with shackles.

Sun Wukong said: "Master, this matter is difficult to say, and it is not necessarily difficult to say that it is simple. Everything has a cause and effect, and there is a clue to the end, why don't we look it up?"

Tang Sanbu said: "Yes..."

The six-eared macaque said: "Since this matter started from the golden pagoda, why not start the investigation from the golden pagoda?"

Tang San got up and looked at the pagoda. He thought it looked familiar, but he didn't remember where he saw it: "Wujing, you take Wufan to cook together, and take Wukong and Xiaoliuzi to have a look. .”

Sha Wujing said: "Master, just go, I guarantee you will have something delicious when you come back."

When the abbot heard this, he quickly thanked him and said at the same time: "Eminent Monk, among my disciples, there are some who are good at cooking, so I can help you. It's just that you need to spend some time to open the shackles."

When Sha Wujing heard this, he smiled: "This is simple."

Sha Wujing tore off a few shackles casually, released a few young monks, and took them to the woodshed to cook.

On the other side, Tang Sanbu came under the golden pagoda under the leadership of the abbot.

Looking up at the tower, Tang San said: "It's quite tall, Liu Zi, Wukong, go up and have a look!"

The abbot said: "Eminent monk, you have to be careful, the door of this pagoda has not been opened since it rained blood, it is said that there may be monsters inside..."

Tang Sanzan was not interested in going upstairs at first, but when he heard there was a monster, his eyes lit up, he grabbed the abbot and said, "Do you know what kind of monster it is? Male or female? What is the male?" Breed, are the girls pretty?"

The abbot was dumbfounded by the question. Looking at the handsome monk in front of him, he didn't look like a hooligan, but could the monk ask such a question?

But the abbot still replied: "I don't know, no one has been there before."

Tang Sanzan immediately let go, greeted the two disciples and went upstairs.

The pagoda has a total of thirteen floors, and Tang Sanzan rushed up like flying...

Seeing that he had reached the top of the pagoda without seeing a monster, Tang Sanzan murmured: "If there were no monsters, I would have to beat up that lying old monk... The poor monk didn't even eat, how could he stand up to such physical strength?" labor."

While talking, I came to the thirteenth floor.

The door on the thirteenth floor was closed tightly, and the sound of someone drinking and punching was vaguely heard inside!

Tang Sanzan's eyes lit up, he kicked open the big stone gate, and shouted: "Hey! What kind of monster!"

The gate was opened, and there was a big Buddha enshrined on the thirteen-storey tower. On the table under the big Buddha, there were two fish-head men sitting on the seats. Fisting and drinking wine.

Seeing someone come in suddenly, they were also startled.

As a result, when he looked up, he found that it was a stupid monk with two monkeys, and he immediately became more courageous.

One of them raised his hand with a knife: "Where is the bald man who dares to take care of your grandfather's business?!"

Chapter 107

At this moment, a monkey jumped up, slapped the big knife flying, raised its leg and kicked the fish-headed man to the ground, and then hit the fish-headed man with a stick, scaring him immediately. I dare not move.

On the other side, another fish-head man was also knocked down by a monkey, with a stick pointed at his head, and he didn't dare to move.

"Master, I caught both monsters, please send them back." Sun Wukong asked.
