Tang Seng is a cook

Seeing that everyone was looking at him together, Bajie immediately became ashamed and hid behind the second senior brother, not daring to come out.

Wukong went to pull him with a smile, and said: "What a shame, come out and meet the old lady, my brother will seek justice for you!"

Only Zhuang Fan guessed a little, he stretched out to stop the two apprentices, stretched out his hand to rub Bajie's face, and Pangpang became that little monk with round face, big eyes, fair skin and tender face again.

Zhuang Fan personally led the listless three apprentices over, and said to Taiyin Xingjun, "Qianqian encounters a marriage robbery on the street. I was afraid that my apprentices' appearance would cause trouble, so I made some cover-ups to surprise the girls of Xingjun's family. .”

Then he said to Bajie: "Wu Neng, I apologize to my sisters."

When the girls saw this Bajie, they gave another wow in unison. One girl took the little rabbit pretending to be dead in Nishang's arms quickly, pushed Nishang, and said: "Sister Nishang, you will accept this apology on our behalf." Come on!"

The girls laughed and pushed Nishang out. Bajie and Nishang faced each other, and they looked at each other, their faces flushed with shame.

Zhuang Fan also said to Taiyin Xingjun: "Old Madam, why don't we go into the house and talk, let the children play outside for a while!"

Taiyin Xingjun agreed with a smile, and those girls also knew the fun, surrounded the old Taiyin, and entered the house first.

Zhuang Fan said he wanted the children to play outside, but he didn't pull any of them, and drove Wukong, Wuwang and the eager Wuyou back to the room. It was His Majesty the king who stayed in the corridor , also asked Zhuang Fan to politely invite him into the house, and Wuyou carried Rhubarb into the house.

For a moment, Xiaokua courtyard, the courtyard door was closed, everyone left, only Bajie and Nishang were left, looking at each other.

Oh, there is still a caramel cake tied to the corner, this guy knows the trick, he closes his eyes, turns his body, his ass is facing the two of them, his ears are raised high, and he listens intently.

The two looked at each other for a while, then lowered their heads in shame again, and remained silent. Ba Jie regained his appearance, gained some confidence in his heart, blushed, opened his mouth first, and said falteringly: "You, how did you recognize it? Where did I come?"

Fairy Nishang grabbed her belt, cast a sharp look at him and said, "Why don't I recognize your piggy appearance? Besides, when I came down just now, someone's eyes were like hooks, and they went right into me!"

Bajie laughed, scratched his head, and said embarrassingly: "I'm in the mortal world, life passes slowly, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm panicking!"

Fairy Nishang spat at him, and said, "Slick-tongued, don't think I didn't notice! I left from Yunzhan Cave in Fuling Mountain, so you went to Gao Laozhuang to be your son-in-law?"

Bajie hastily explained: "It's not that you're gone. I didn't eat or drink, and the Bodhisattva didn't tell me to kill, so I went to be a door-to-door son-in-law in name, but in fact it was a free long-term job! It's just a mess! Nishang, you Believe me, from heaven to earth, I have only worshiped heaven and earth with you! I never provoke other little ladies, if you don't believe me, ask my master!"

When Nishang heard this, her eyes turned red, but she still turned her head to ignore him, and said in her mouth: "You said you don't want to provoke others, so why did Su'e go down to earth for you? How did Yutu snatch a marriage in the street?"

Bajie was so anxious that he said, "I don't know who Su'e is! In my eyes, Yutu is a rabbit!"

Seeing that Nishang was still ignoring him, Bajie couldn't help taking a step forward, took Nishang's hand, called out his nickname when he was in Yunzhan Cave, and said, "Second Sister, trust me!"

When Nishang heard this, she couldn't help but shed a few tears. When Bajie saw her crying, he also burst into tears, choked up and said: "Second sister, we are a couple in need. When I was demoted to the mortal world, you were the one who secretly reincarnated into the lower realm." Come and see me, we are in the Yunzhan Cave, we have nothing, there is not enough spiritual energy in the world, there is no way to practice, there is no food and clothing, and you will die of illness within a year. I am concerned about whether you can return to Guanghan Palace smoothly, where did Fan Xin come from, and flirt with other women."

Seeing him like this, Nishang also choked up and said, "I know you, don't cry."

It's just that the two held hands in the end, stood in the courtyard and cried.

Out of grief, Bajie stopped crying and said: "I see that your appearance is the same as when I was in the Heavenly Court, and you are still by the old Taiyin's side. I think if you go back, everything will go well?"

Nishang sighed, and said: "How can there be such a good thing, it is not because of the mercy of Lord Xing. After I died, I saw Lord Xing waiting for me in the sky, protecting my soul from returning to my body, and then returning to the moon palace. I'm afraid I'm still a ghost in the mortal world!"

After hearing this, Bajie couldn't help being afraid, and said: "It's so dangerous! It's really thanks to Xingjun!"

Nishang nodded and said: "Xingjun, as the god of Taiyin, naturally cherishes our women the most."

Bajie let out a long breath, and sighed: "Since that's the case, I can feel relieved. Seeing you, my heart will be put back in my stomach!" But he remembered something again, and said, "You said that the jade rabbit , I came down to earth for me, so why did I hug her when I saw you just now, be careful that she gets jealous and hurts you!"

Nishang pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "It's not Jade Rabbit who has concerns about you. She came down to earth not because of you. She probably snatched the marriage, one is to scare you out of anger, and the other is to test you for me. "

Bajie wondered: "It's not for me? It's for learning the scriptures? Why did I provoke her and still scare me?"

Nishang said: "That's not the case. Yutu didn't have such a big heart. She came down to earth after Su'e and wanted revenge. It's because you touched the ears of Yutu back then, and praised her cuteness. That Su'e saw it, and when she went back, Su'e felt jealous, so she slapped her and reprimanded her for wishful thinking and seducing you."

After hearing this, Bajie laughed and said: "Then what kind of eyes does Su'e have? I was obviously going to see you that day!"

Nishang blushed, glared at him, and said, "That's right, the Jade Rabbit suffered such an innocent disaster for nothing, how can you not be angry? It just so happened that Su'e thought of everything later, and was reincarnated in this Tianzhu Kingdom as a princess. Jade Rabbit looks at you, too. I just happened to be passing by, so I left Guanghan Palace privately and became a princess in Tianzhu Kingdom."

Bajie was dumbfounded, and said: "Could it be that she wants to take the throne from the princess' father and destroy the princess' dignity?"

Nishang nodded and said, "Almost!"

Bajie couldn't help picking his thumb up, and said, "I've never seen such an ambitious little rabbit!"

Nishang said angrily: "Praise people indiscriminately again, be careful to bring trouble to Jade Rabbit again!"

Bajie had a good time, scratching his head, but turning his head, he said very seriously: "Even if the jade rabbit is angry with me, you should stay away from her. How do you know that if she is angry with me, she won't be angry with you!"

Nishang opened her mouth and wanted to argue, but then she thought about it, the two haven't seen each other for a long time, why bother to quarrel over these things, so she said softly: "Okay, I will listen to you."

Bajie sighed, and said: "You are in Guanghan Palace, take care of yourself, don't think about coming down anymore. Now that I have converted to Buddhism and become a monk, I will follow my master after receiving the scriptures, and I will not be able to go back to heaven. Even if I go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you again..."

After hearing this, Nishang burst into tears, nodded, and said aggrievedly: "I know, I am already satisfied to be able to be husband and wife with you in Yunzhan Cave..."

Bajie raised his hand, wanting to wipe her tears, but finally held back, lowered his head, and said: "After I met Master, I realized that in this world, women's survival is not easy, and reputation is important, so in front of others, Nishang is also Okay, Second Sister Mao, I never dared to mention your name, for fear of damaging your reputation. It’s okay for the old lady to know about our affairs. She is kind-hearted, sympathizes with women in the world, and will treat you well. Only you must not go down to the realm easily, do you understand?"

Nishang sobbed loudly, retracted her hands, took out her handkerchief, covered her face, and sobbed softly: "I know, I won't come again!"

Ba Jie's heart is like a knife, but in this world, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at them, and I don't know how many invisible etiquettes are restraining them. After all, he can't give the one he loves a warm support and hug. I was afraid that if I acted improperly, I would hurt her, a good girl.

Inside the room, everyone who quietly listened to the gossip couldn't help crying, and the girls in the Guanghan Palace repeatedly scolded the Jade Emperor, the "thousand-year-old Wangba" who ruined the marriage.

Zhuang Fan also sighed, he didn't expect that among his disciples, Bajie was the one who suffered a emotional injury first, when he left Fuling Mountain with Bajie, Bajie turned around and looked around for a long time , Originally, he thought that this little pig was thinking about Gao Cuilan, but Ba Jie pretended in his heart that it was his first wife, Second Sister Mao.

That Yunzhan Cave, at first, was the home of Second Sister Mao and him...

Taiyin Xingjun took a sip of tea and said, "Holy Monk, I hear what this means. After you have learned the scriptures, maybe you won't go back to Lingshan?"

Zhuang Fan smiled, and said: "Mr. Xing is really smart, the poor monk really has unfulfilled wishes, after learning the scriptures, I'm afraid he won't live in Lingshan forever."

Taiyin Xingjun smiled slightly and said: "Oh, this woman is just careful. The older she gets, the more treacherous her eyes and ears are. From time to time, she is annoying."

Zhuang Fan smiled and didn't answer the question.

Taiyin Xingjun couldn't help it, so he had to say: "It's just that the old man feels that after the holy monk has read the scriptures and attained the true fruit, I'm afraid it's not good if he wants to cultivate into a Buddha body and not return to Lingshan?"

Zhuang Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know the old lady, what good idea can you give me?"

Taiyin Xingjun choked, and thought that your temperament of being ready for a pole is not something you learned from your apprentice, so he could only say: "Although I am not a worm in the stomach of a holy monk, I am concerned about your thoughts." I can guess one or two, and I can give you an idea."

Zhuang Fan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why don't you tell me, old lady?"

Taiyin Xingjun chuckled and said: "I say yes, but there is something I want to ask the holy monk, I don't know..."

Zhuang Fan rubbed his beard and said: "If what you say fits the pavement, then the idea is also feasible. If you ask me to do the same, then the poor monk will have nothing to say!"

The old lady said confidently: "It will be done!"

Zhuang Fan said: "The disciple is all ears?"

The old lady smiled slightly, and said in a voice transmission: "Jin Chan, do you want to come and go, go somewhere?"

Zhuang Fan was taken aback, thought over the words in his heart, smiled wryly, and thought that from the perspective of them, he didn't want to go there, so he nodded his head and said, "The old lady is really wise!"

Taiyin Xingjun saw that Zhuang Fan was not pretending to be stupid, and was satisfied in his heart, so he then transmitted his voice into the secret and said: "You know, at that time, Tang Sanzang came from place to place and picked you up again, but the Jade Emperor and the Buddha took the lead and gathered together. Almost all the powerful powers now have opened the space-time tunnel and gone through this wave?"

Zhuang Fan's heart tensed up, his face sank like water, and he also transmitted his voice into the secret way: "I have heard something."

The old Taiyin continued: "You don't know, after opening this tunnel, the Jade Emperor and the Buddha, together with all the great powers, have not recovered their power at this time, but only [-] to [-]% of the peak period. If so, you can know, you How difficult it must be to go back to that place!"

Zhuang Fan said: "Please Xing Jun give advice!"

Taiyin Xingjun didn't hide it, just said: "This matter must never be repeated. One mistake will cause time and space to be disordered, space will collapse, and it will be destroyed. It's not just this coming and going, two worlds. In the middle , Thousands of small worlds will be wiped out! At that time, not only the relatives you miss in that life, but also many creatures here, the sky and the earth, and even the underworld, will be wiped out, do you understand?"

After Zhuang Fan heard this, his heart fell into a deep valley. He sat on the chair in a daze, and muttered to himself: "Could it be that I really can't go back?"

The old lady shook her head, smiled and continued to transmit the secret voice: "Young man, it's uncertainty. I haven't finished talking yet, why are you so anxious!"

Zhuang Fan's eyes suddenly burst into infinite brilliance. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Taiyin Xingjun. The old lady touched the little rabbit in his arms, and whispered slowly: "I know you and that little guy who doesn't understand , is plotting to use the power of your great apprentice to open up a passage again and send you back, isn't it?"

Zhuang Fan asked anxiously: "The old lady made it clear, but what's wrong? Did it hurt Wukong?"

Taiyin Xingjun shook his head, and said: "This has never happened before. If Wukong can really become a saint instantly, with the power of a saint, not to mention traveling through time and space, it is not difficult to create another small world. I just want to remind you. It's something else!"

Seeing Taiyin Xingjun's serious face, Zhuang Fan couldn't help but feel nervous, he leaned over and said, "Please tell me, Wanwang is outspoken!"

The old lady stretched out her finger, pointed down, and said: "When crossing the river, watch your feet!"

Zhuang Fan was taken aback, what does this mean?Cross the river, cross what river?What are you doing under your feet?

It's just that he wanted to ask again, but he saw Taiyin Xingjun get up slowly, turned around and said: "Okay, aunts, we have stayed in the lower realm long enough, it's time to go back!"

Zhuang Fan hurriedly said: "Old Xingjun, you haven't said what you want me to do!"

Taiyin Xingjun narrowed his eyes, smiled kindly, and said, "Don't worry, holy monk, when the time comes, you will naturally know what's going on!"

After that, he hugged the rabbit and led a group of Heng'e, filed out of the door, went to the courtyard, pulled up the neon clothes, stepped on the colorful clouds, went straight up into the air, and went back to Guanghan Palace.

Zhuang Fan chased to the courtyard, raised his head together with apprentice Bajie, and watched the group of fairies go away, his apprentice was full of parting sadness, and his heart was full of doubts.

Wu Wang watched, and whispered to Wu Kong: "Elder brother, is Master fascinated by Taiyin Xingjun?"

Wukong waved his hand and said: "Go! What are you talking about! The old lady has a wrinkled face, who can fascinate her?"

Wu Wang hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that fascination! You see, just now the master and the old lady were muttering about sound transmission into secrets. They talked for a long time, but I didn't know what they were talking about. I was afraid of what she said. , Hooked away Master's soul!"

When Wu You heard this, she was startled, thinking that his father had really lost his soul, threw the rhubarb away, jumped in front of Zhuang Fan, and shouted: "Daddy!"

Zhuang Fan was taken aback, he lowered his head and rubbed Wuyou's forehead, and said, "What's wrong? Hungry? Dad, let's cook!"

It was already mid-afternoon at this time, and the master and apprentice had been tossing around for a whole day without eating a bite of food.

Bajie said listlessly: "Master, I'm not feeling well today, I want to go in and lie down for a while... I won't help you cook."

Zhuang Fan hugged the little fat man in his arms, said nothing, only said: "Go."

Wukong and the others were also very considerate, they didn't quarrel with him, only Wuyou hugged the rhubarb to Bajie, and said: "Senior brother, can you help me look at the rhubarb for a while? It just ate milk and should be asleep."

Bajie said listlessly: "Okay..." He took the rhubarb and walked into the room with a steady step.

Wu Wang said: "Wu You, why did you give the rhubarb to your third brother, he doesn't have the energy to take care of that little hairball right now."

Wuyou sighed, and said very maturely: "Second Senior Brother, you don't understand, Third Senior Brother is feeling so empty right now, and just needs to hold a little hair ball in his arms!"

Zhuang Fan let out a laugh, and poked Wu You on the forehead, saying: "The little thing is not big, but there are so many ghost ideas, you know what is empty!"

Just looking at Wu Wang and Wu You's eyes hurting, he said: "You two, change back quickly, I'm dizzy just looking at it!"

At this time, I only heard a trembling voice from under the porch: "Holy, holy monk..."

Everyone looked up together, ah, it was the king of Tianzhu!

Zhuang Fan slapped his forehead, thinking that he had completely forgotten about this one, hurried over, saluted eleven, and said: "It's really rude, there are so many people in such a mess, that you have neglected Your Majesty!"

Dazzled by all the fairies in the heavenly palace, the king who was fascinated by the gods smiled stupidly: "Where, thanks to the holy monk, Xiao Wang was able to meet the gods today! It's really lucky for three lives, lucky for three lives!"

Zhuang Fan said with a smile: "Your Majesty has a fairy in his family, why is that so?"

The king said: "Oh, isn't that fake? I just remembered now that I don't have any younger sisters at all! Oh, this fairy family's methods are really extraordinary!"

Zhuang Fan laughed and said, "What I'm talking about is not the fake eldest princess, but His Majesty's own daughter. That princess is also the reincarnation of a fairy from the Moon Palace. The Jade Rabbit just now is just a rabbit spirit. The one in Your Majesty's house is the real one." Where's the fairy?"

The king was overjoyed and said, "What the holy monk said is true?"

Zhuang Fan nodded, and said: "That's true! Your Majesty must educate the little princess well, don't restrict her temperament, the body of a fairy is extraordinary, and there will be no great fortune in the future."

Thank you so much for the king, and he pulled Zhuang Fan to ask non-stop. Zhuang Fan just wanted to remind him a few words. Don't ask him because he is just a daughter. If you train her well, she might be the next queen. , but how did he know how this fairy would eat, wear, walk, and travel?

Seeing that the king's thinking was a little crooked, Zhuang Fan had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty just raise him like a normal son, so that's all!"

But the king retorted: "Hey~ how can this be so! My daughter's family is so precious, how could she treat her like a brat like a brat!"

Zhuang Fan choked, thinking that what you say is what it is!

Fortunately, at this time, a servant from the palace knocked on the door, saying that the king's dragon chariot and guard of honor had arrived and was waiting outside, waiting for His Majesty to return to the palace.

That day the King of Zhu Kingdom was reluctant to leave, Zhuang Fan said helplessly: "The poor monk has become a monk since he was a child, and he really has no good ideas about raising his children. Why don't your majesty go back to the palace and discuss it with the queen?"

When the king heard this, he suddenly realized, and said: "The holy monk is still wise!"

Zhuang Fan finally said: "Your Majesty, since the princess is a fake and has deceived His Majesty, it is normal for those mortals under her to be deceived. I hope His Majesty will not punish them. If possible, I hope His Majesty will arrange them properly." Those people can be regarded as doing good deeds for the little princess, after all, the root cause of this calamity lies with her!"

The king said: "Great kindness! Just listen to the holy monk!"

After finishing speaking, he hurried back to the palace to find the queen and see his daughter.

Zhuang Fan sent this great god away with great difficulty, let out a breath of exhaustion, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around, and saw the huge courtyard suddenly empty and quiet, he couldn't help stretching long, just Feeling more tired than ever.

Just now, the old lady Taiyin Xingjun was really scared!

It wasn't until the sun went down that the masters and apprentices had today's lunch, which was neither early nor late, and Bajie was still stuck in the house, and Zhuang Fan didn't call him, but told the little fat man to hide himself. Digest your mind.

After only two mouthfuls, Wu You gritted his teeth with the stones in the rice. Wu Wang ate a big salt in the dish, and Wu Kong didn’t run away. He touched a bun and gnawed it. Yes, the stuffing inside is not yet warmed through.

The three of them looked at each other, and looked at Zhuang Fan together, only to see the master blankly picking the chopsticks into his mouth, but there was nothing in his rice bowl.

Wu Wang whispered to Wu Kong: "Brother, look, what did I say, Master really fascinated Taiyin Xingjun!"

Wuyou leaned over and said, "Second senior brother, what?"

Wukong hissed, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, don't ask nonsense! Eat well!"

Wu Wang and Wu You pouted, and began to eat carefully.

Wukong leaned over to his master and called out, "Master, there is no food in your bowl, shall I fill you with rice?"

Zhuang Fan had been thinking about Taiyin Xingjun's words just now, and Wukong called him, and he came back to his senses, looked down, and sure enough, there was not a single grain of rice in the bowl, so he simply put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said: "Master is full. There is no more food, you eat slowly!"

After that, he stood up, went out, and went into the yard.

Wukong and the others got together and looked out of the kitchen, Wuyou asked anxiously, "Why did daddy go? Is he going to run away from home?"

Wukong took a look and said, "It's okay, just sit under the tree! Let's eat!"

It's just that there were only three people at the dinner table, and it was very deserted, and no one could lift their spirits. The three of them took a few mouthfuls and stopped eating.

After dinner, Wu Wang led Wu You to wash the dishes, so Wu Kong pretended to be indifferent and went to find his master.

Zhuang Fan raised his head, looked at the moon in the sky, and pondered in his heart. The old lady said, when crossing the river, look at your feet.

This river refers to Lingyundu?Or back to modern times, that river of time and space?

The author has something to say: Journey to the West has two editions: Egg Erjie and Mao Erjie

Here is the saying of the second sister Mao

Mao, Maotu, little rabbit, refers to the moon palace

So I wrote Sister Mao and Fairy Nishang as one person

(In the original book of Journey to the West, Chang'e is mentioned, and it is also called Chang'e, and it does not refer to a person, but a fairy of the Moon Palace. They are all called Chang'e or Chang'e

The Chang’e here is not the Chang’e from Houyi’s family

But for the Jade Rabbit, Taiyin Xingjun brought a group of Heng'e down to pick up the Jade Rabbit, and the person Ba Jie rushed to hug was called Nishang Fairy.

Bajie himself also said that he and Nishang are old acquaintances, which is the basis of the plot of this article)
