[Journey to the West] Jagged Tang San Burial

Sanzang only felt that he was having a big dream.

He woke up from the trek through thousands of mountains and rivers, the last thing he saw in his eyes was the continuous waterfall of Shuiliandong, and then there was a light in front of his eyes, and he landed firmly on the ground.

Vajras on both sides nodded, and the voice was like thunder: "Amitabha, you all have passed the three gates of my Buddha, please enter the Mahavira Hall."

Inside the Daxiong Palace, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhats have manifested their true bodies. They are hundreds of thousands of feet high. Looking down from above, it is obvious that the Tripitaka and his party are as small as ants and insects.The Tathagata lowered his head and looked at Sanzang. The Buddha's body was so majestic and dignified that people dared not look at it too much, and the Buddha's voice seemed to penetrate all holes, coming from all directions, calling Sanzang together.

Sanzang bowed to the Buddha.

Buddhism has passed, and in this long dream, every thought and movement depends entirely on the subjective consciousness of the passer. After Sanzang has become a golden cicada, he still chooses the direction he wants to move forward.

With such a firm belief, there is nothing the Buddha can do.

"Tripitaka."

The Buddha's voice poured into his ears continuously.

"In your previous life, you were my second apprentice, named Jin Chanzi, with a stubborn personality and could not be moved. Because you didn't listen to the Dharma and despised my great teaching, you demoted your true spirit and reincarnated in the Eastern Land. Today I ask you the last question Again, why don't you want to build a golden body?"

Sanzang replied with his thoughts: "Amitabha, Sanzang is devoted to Buddha in this life, but he does not want to be Buddha."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and the sound of Buddha came to his ears again.

"This is a ray of thought. If you don't think about Buddha, Jin Chanzi must not think about it."

Tathagata snatched away a wisp of Sanzang's mind, hid it in his arms, with an indifferent expression, and then opened his mouth, and named Sun Wukong as the fighting Buddha, Bajie as the envoy of the altar, the rolling curtain as the golden body Arhat, and the little white dragon as the eight gods. Bu Tianlong, Sanzang and Honghaier were not mentioned for the time being, and Anuo and Jiaye were ordered to lead Sanzang to Baoge to collect the scriptures.

As soon as Sanzang left, the heavenly officials of that day's court came with the decree of the Jade Emperor, and behind them there were people wearing clothes, hats and socks, ordering Bajie, Juanlian, and Ao Lie to listen to the decree and repeat their original positions. The general of the curtain, he called back to the shutter department.Please change your clothes and hats, and then you can set off to return to the Heavenly Court to see the Jade Emperor.

The three of them put on their clothes and hats, and left with the heavenly officials, while the Taishang Laojun arrived on his hind feet, worshiped the Tathagata, and took his samadhi real fire womb, the red boy, back to the Tiandoushi Palace for divorce.

Sanzang finished collecting scriptures, 48 volumes in total, and King Kong carried them out of the treasure pavilion for him, but there was a monkey waiting for him outside the pavilion.

"Wukong, where are you going?"

The two masters and apprentices stood still, and Sanzang asked him gently, thinking that this might be the last time the master and apprentice met.However, the monkey looked bored and complained, "Monk, grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time. Where are you going? Wherever you go, grandpa will go."

Sanzang was moved, and the monkey took the volume of scriptures in Vajra's hand, and made a big package, which he carried on his shoulder.King Kong exhaled a gust of wind, blowing Sanzang and the monkey lightly into the sky.

"Holy monk—go to the east, where the wind falls, that is the way you came!"

It only took a moment to go back to the west, and two clouds fell on the head of Chang'an city in Tang Dynasty.The king of Tang came to welcome him, and all the people worshiped him.The Tripitaka is also chanting, the rare copies are stored in the pagoda, and the manuscripts are handed down to the world.After the water and land meeting, Sanzang left Chang'an with the monkey and returned to Jinshan Temple next to Jiangzhou.In Jinshan Temple, his two masters are still in good spirits, and there is an endless stream of incense in the temple.All three of them were filled with emotions. When they left, Sanzang was still a fledgling young monk. Now that he returned to Jinshan Temple, he already had his own disciples.

Sanzang stayed in the monastery for five days, talking to the two masters about the journey to the west. The monkey returned to Huaguo Mountain to visit the monkey grandson. Five days later, Sanzang set off again with his disciple.Not only going to the west alone, there are also countless monsters making trouble in the four directions of southeast, northwest and north.

A man and a demon also traveled westward together. They lived in the wind and slept in the open. When they heard that there was a monster, they went up to inquire, saved the monster, and saved the common people. Apprentice Xingzhe, wherever he went, the monsters were terrified, trembling and had no choice but to surrender and beg for mercy.There are those who have good deeds who transcribe their deeds and pass them on to the world, and there are also pictures of the two people, which are kept in the homes of foolish people and women, saying that they can be used to ward off evil spirits.

They traveled like this for an unknown number of days, but Sanzang and the two met a big monster, a roc, whose back was thousands of miles away, with its wings spread out to cover the sky and the sun, roaring down from the sky.Pengniao led them to a place where goblins gather, which is called the northern goblin kingdom.Bi Fangsheng encountered countless kestrels and golden eagles, all of them hidden on the mountain, circling and rushing down, and surrounded the monkeys densely.That roc folded its wings, grasped the air with its claws, and rushed towards Sanzang.

Originally, there was a big difference between the size of a human and an ant, Sanzang held his breath, and was about to fight to the death with that giant claw, when suddenly he saw a golden light falling under the claw of the roc.The golden light turned into a colorful golden Buddha robe, and the black hair tied behind his head fluttered under the gust of wind on his wings, and then a golden hoop was put on the roc's paws.

The roc didn't expect this to happen, it croaked loudly, intending to fly away, the visitor turned over and stepped on the roc's back, another golden hoop strangled its neck, and ordered it to fall to the ground.

The monkey showed its Dharma appearance, and its body reached the sky. The golden cudgel shook off thousands of bird demons around him, and the feathers fell one after another, mourning. Look at Sanzang below.

The faces of the two are exactly the same, the upper one is more youthful and energetic, Sanzang is mature and stable, when the two approach, Sanzang only feels a slight pain in his heart, he thinks of the mind that was snatched away by the Tathagata.

"Golden Cicada."

"Tang Sanzang."

The two parties reported their names to each other, and the monkey waved a golden cudgel to block Sanzang with a vigilant expression, while the golden cicada looked thoughtfully at his golden armor and phoenix feathers.

"Guanyin just lent me a golden hoop to seal your golden armor, but unexpectedly the golden hoop will never be returned, let's go!"

Jin Chanzi stood on the back of the roc and directed the roc to fly west.

Monkey didn't know or care about how Tathagata revived Jin Chanzi's golden body, but what bothered him was that Jin Chanzi seemed to come to visit the monk all the time.No matter where they arrive, Jin Chanzi can always find them, and then come to talk to Sanzang for a while, monkeys often lean on a golden cudgel, look fierce, stare at Jin Chanzi, Jin Chanzi does not look sideways, pretending that there is no such thing as a monkey at all. the existence of the character.If the monkey annoyed him, he began to talk about the old account of the golden hoop.It is said that Jin Chanzi used to have three gold hoops, which were handy, but now that one is missing, it is inevitable that he feels empty and uncomfortable.

The two of them, or occasionally the three of them, went from south to north, from east to west, and the successive years were endless. Only occasionally they made the monkey somersault back to Jinshan Temple to see if the two masters Sanzang were safe and healthy.Before Fayi and Faming were about to die, they were driven by a monkey flying through the clouds and landed beside Sanzang.At that time, Sanzang had reached the extreme north, and there was a long ray of light, falling from the sky like a curtain. He sat with the two masters all night. Blend with ice and snow.

Perhaps because of the lack of a ray of mind, Sanzang aged faster than ordinary people. Not long after sending off the two masters, he was also getting old, with a bent back, and gradually changed from fighting side by side with his apprentices to relying on the backs of his apprentices. The face of the cicada has not changed, it is still in its 20s, and so is the monkey, but the arrogance of the past has been put away a lot, as if walking with Sanzang, the appearance has not aged, but the mentality has gradually become peaceful.

The monkey was going to the Heavenly Court to ask Sanzang for medicine. His juniors also followed the monkey down to the mortal world and met Sanzang several times. Red Boy even followed his uncle's example and stole a gourd of elixir for Sanzang. Sanzang couldn't laugh or cry and asked his uncle to teach He took his nephew and sent him back to Taishang Laojun.Sanzang himself realized that his life would last for a long time, the more he felt that life was passing by, the more stable his heart would be.

Afraid of his sudden passing, the monkey stayed by his side day and night, holding a golden cudgel in one hand and Sanzang in the other, secretly transporting some demon power to warm his hands and feet.Sanzang suddenly woke up one night, he struggled to get up, and the monkey was beside him without realizing it.

Sanzang felt something strange, he looked around, and found himself sitting under a plane tree covering the sky, the cicadas were singing constantly, and the golden cicada was standing on the top of the tree, it landed lightly, and bowed to him.

"Sanzang, your lifespan is over."

Sanzang responded, his expression remained unchanged, as if he knew that today was the end of the day.

He doesn't have much attachment to the mortal world, his apprentices are all beyond reincarnation, and the two masters have passed away. There are many monsters in the world, but there are always those who go forward to eliminate them, as if the only monkey left with him day and night, Sanzang didn't know where he was going after he died.

"After the poor monk died."

Sanzang stood up and entrusted Jin Chanzi respectfully: "Now the only one who can't rest assured is Sun Wukong, the poor monk's great apprentice. He used to have the same personality as the poor monk, but now he has restrained himself a lot, and he is afraid that I will not be around in the future, causing trouble." What troubles, no one can persuade him. In this world, you and the poor monk are the only one with the same soul. I just hope that when Wukong makes some mistakes in the future, he can look at the poor monk and persuade him a lot, take care of him, and not let him He is alone, Amitabha."

Jin Chanzi didn't expect Sanzang to say these words before he was about to die, he was stunned for a moment, but then laughed again.

"Sanzang, do you think your six faculties are impure?"

"Amitabha. He and the poor monk are masters and apprentices, family members, relatives, flesh and blood, love and parting. He has never realized it, and the poor monk is willing to take care of it."

Jin Chanzi was indifferent, and suddenly said: "The Tathagata only gave you two chances, but now, I want to give you a third chance, Tang Sanzang, are you willing to merge into my golden body, so that your mind will never die?"

Sanzang replied: "How the poor monk answered the Buddha in the Daxiong Palace in the past, the answer is the same today. To the Buddha, but not to be the Buddha."

Instead of continuing to argue with Jin Chanzi, he walked up to the monkey, stretched out his hand, and stroked the monkey's hair with his fingers.The monkey seemed to feel something, and when he looked back, seeing that Sanzang was still fast asleep, he turned his face away again.

"Let's go, the poor monk is ready."

The monkey only felt that Sanzang woke up a little late today.He let go of Sanzang's warm palm, and went to get some water. When he came back, he was about to hold Sanzang's palm, but found that his palm was cold and his fingers were weak. Tripitaka breathes.

The aged monk was no longer breathing, but there was a smile on his face, as if he had left peacefully in a dream.

The monkey stood there dumbfounded for a while, not knowing how it felt in his heart, when suddenly he saw Sanzang's body gradually turning into ashes, those ashes were blown up by the wind, circled in mid-air, and headed west.

The monkey followed closely and went all the way to Lingshan. The ashes were illuminated by the Buddha's light and disappeared.The monkey hurriedly descended from the clouds, and wanted to rush into the three mountain gates to meet the Tathagata, but was stopped by King Kong, who said that someone was waiting for the Great Sage under the green pine forest.The monkey rushed to the green pine forest, and saw the golden cicada standing in the forest.

Jin Chanzi is no longer in his twenties, his expression looks a little haggard and old, and the Buddha's light all over his body has subsided a lot.The monkey rushed up and grabbed his Buddhist robe, and asked him where my master was. Before Jin Chanzi could answer, he saw Sanzang walking out of the green pine forest.

The monkey loosened the buddhist robe, and Jin Chanzi leaned against the green pine forest wearily, with a dazed expression, watching the monkey rush up suddenly, as if he couldn't believe it, looking at Sanzang who repeated his youthful face on the way to learn the scriptures in the past.

"Don't look at it, your master has absorbed my carefully cultivated mind now, but you have the power of a Buddha before you become a Buddha. I will split your mind with him, and I will be annoyed by my master. Come down to Lingshan."

In this short period of time, the monkey was both surprised and happy, and his mood fluctuated. When he descended the Lingshan Mountain, he didn't know where he was stepping or where he was.Seeing him like this, Sanzang showed a smile, waved his sleeves to embrace him, suddenly floated up, and drove away in the wind.

"Monk, where are you going?"

"Wherever you go, you will go there as a teacher."

There is a long time in the world, endless years, in which there are only birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, hatred, separation of love, and unrequited love.On the top there is a cycle of day and night, and on the bottom there is a dynasty that replaces the people from generation to generation. They don't want lingering love, but only long-lasting and eternal companionship. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

As a teacher, you are not afraid of the sky, you are not afraid of the earth, and you dare to disobey the will of the Buddha three times. I am afraid that the people will suffer from demons, and you will only be alone in this world.

Amitabha.

————————————————————End of the full text————————————————————

The author has something to say:

A slack monster like a monkey makes a promise to follow you

Jin Chanzi confirms that Sanzang's six roots are not clean

Sanzang promised not to leave the monkey alone

In fact, more important than love is companionship

Just like we are all getting old now, and the person who loves you may not be able to grow old with you, but the person who will accompany you when you get old must be the person who loves you

I hope little angels can have another person who will accompany them till the end like this

This is the end of the full text, there is no fanfare at present, the author has already killed the author all the way down, haha, if the author thinks of the fanfare, he will add it.

happy reading
