[Journey to the West] Jagged Tang San Burial

Here the monkey went up to the heaven to get the elixir, and Sanzang was guarding the king's body at the bottom. The yellow-haired monster saw the monkey leave, and came over again, thinking that if a monkey went to the sky, those two mortals are not my opponents. The red-haired one seemed a bit difficult to deal with. The other two monsters looked like wealthy sons, and their strength was unpredictable. The last monk was rumored to be very powerful, and he didn't know if it was true or not, so he pressed against the cloud and rushed towards the prince.

Before the prince could hold the sword at his waist, Wen Gongsun pushed it away first, but it was a pity, although Wen Gongsun's martial arts were ten times higher than the prince's, there are still mortals in the world The monk was hundreds of times, thousands of times, and thousands of times taller than him, and fell down with the prince in an instant.

The yellow-haired monster never expected that not only could he not beat the monkey, but even an ordinary monk could drag him off the cloud, and then the Zen staff was as merciless as running water and as hard as a boulder, and the sword in his hand flew away in a few hits, and a few more times With just one blow, he flew out horizontally, and was thrown to the ground by the monk's foot, with his face down and his limbs lying horizontally, and he could feel the fragrance of blood and earth soil in his mouth.The other three monsters behind him rejoiced: "Master is mighty! Master give him a good lesson!"

This is what the monkey saw when he came down from the Heavenly Court. He smacked his tongue, thinking that there is such a monster with no eyes. It stands to reason that there are rumors that the monk is killing the monster on the road ahead. Grandpa can forgive him for coming halfway. He didn't know his grandpa's reputation, so why was he still thinking about it so pitifully, so he lowered his head and shouted: "Master! The golden elixir has been obtained, master, should we save people first, or save people first?"

The yellow-haired monster was breathing weakly and was half dead. Sanzang was a little disappointed. Not all monsters could make good use of their natural brute strength. The one under their feet was a waste of themselves, enjoying the glory and wealth in the world. It was a pity, and said: "First Save people." The monkey responded, but he didn't know what to do with the golden elixir. He had no experience in saving people, so he suddenly had a whim and asked Sanzang, "Master, grandpa turned into a mosquito and flew with the golden elixir." How about going in?" Naturally, Sanzang should not, seeing that the yellow-haired monster was also dying, he ignored him, but asked Roller to find a bowl of water nearby, and asked the prince to come and take the golden elixir with it. Water to feed his father.The prince did as he did, but because the king had been dead for three years and his mouth was stiff, Sanzang couldn't help it, so he leaned forward, and Bajie asked in horror, "Master, do you want to feed yourself?"

Sanzang shook his head, he was skillful, easily removed the king's chin, pushed and delivered, the golden core quickly fell into his throat, and then he put the chin back.After the golden elixir fell into his stomach, about half an hour later, the king's stomach kept humming, but his hands and feet were still unable to move. Sanzang put his fingers under his nose, and he didn't feel breathing, so he guessed: "He died. After three years, it should be because the vitality in the body is cut off, and you need to take a breath to save him." The prince heard this and wanted to step forward, but Sanzang couldn't help but turned to the monkey again: "Have you ever eaten meat?"

The monkey's expression was calm: "I have eaten. Grandpa has been human flesh since he was a child."

Sanzang glanced at him with disbelief on his face. The monkey was defeated and said helplessly, "I haven't eaten! I haven't eaten!" He lifted his robe and squatted down beside the king, but Sanzang called him again. Wait, he bit his own fingertips, and wrote on the face of the monkey a resurrection spell used by Guanyin in the past. The monkey licked the blood on its lips, bent down, held the king's lips, and breathed into the mouth of the monkey. Inside, Du went down the heavy building, turned to the Ming Hall, and walked to the dantian, Du Na's exhausted vitality, the king's energy gathered, he suddenly woke up, turned over, climbed up, bent his fists, first knelt down to Sanzang, and called Master , but when he got up, he saw the yellow-haired monster behind Sanzang who barely opened his eyes.

When the yellow-haired monster opened his eyes, he happened to see a group of them around there, and suddenly he saw the man who had been dead for three years get up, speak in his mouth, kneel down towards Sanzang, but looked at him again, that is Unable to recognize him anymore, he asked Sanzang, "Master, is that monster over there?" The yellow-haired monster smiled miserably, and he called a monk from behind, and Sanzang really walked towards him, exhausting the remaining monster power in his body, rolling There was a gust of wind, enveloping Sanzang, and when the wind dissipated, two Sanzang suddenly appeared on the spot.

This monster's technique of transforming is really good, and the Sanzang he learned is exactly the same. The monkey sneered behind him, and was about to take a look at it, when he saw one of the Sanzang without saying a word, holding a Zen stick, and greeted the face of the one beside him, The person next to him tried his best to support himself, his skills were weak, and he was about to be thrown away by Sanzang's Zen stick, when a voice suddenly shouted from the northeast corner in midair: "Sanzang, absolutely not!"

The monsters below looked up together, and the real body of Manjushri Bodhisattva appeared on the cloud. The monkey clicked his tongue and said, "It turns out that Manjushri Bodhisattva is also like that Avalokitesvara, and he is doing this business to deceive us." The monkey said that sitting on the auspicious cloud, he held a demon mirror in his hand, which illuminated the original body of the yellow-haired monster, but in the mirror was a blue-faced and yellow-haired lion king with red eyes. He and Sanzang said warmly: "Sanzang, let go of my mount."

With the Zen stick in his hand, Sanzang stepped on the monster, and bowed politely to Manjushri Bodhisattva, saying: "Bodhisattva is not in a hurry. After the poor monk has finished liberating the monster, the Bodhisattva will definitely take the soul away." Manjushri Bodhisattva said: "... What Sanzang said is interesting, but this monster has received the Buddha's decree, so it shouldn't die." Sanzang gave a oh, expressing that he would like to hear more about it, and the king of the Wuji Kingdom also stood up and worshiped the Bodhisattva After getting down, he asked: "I don't know why the Buddha punished me? I ask the Bodhisattva to explain." Manjushri recognized him, suddenly fell from the clouds, changed himself, and asked him: "Do you still recognize this appearance?"

The king looked puzzled, looked at it carefully, and replied, "This... I don't know this."

Manjushri took back the image of a mortal, sat back on the cloud, and said: "In the past, when you saw me like this, you were only seven or eight years old. It is only because you have completed your merits and virtues in the previous nine lives, but due to various reasons, you have not been able to become a golden body and become a Buddha. The Buddha sent me to take you back to the west, because I couldn't see you in the same body, so I became an ordinary monk, asked you to make some fasting offerings, and asked if you would like to go to the west, but you still refused, so the soldiers tied me up with a rope I was tied up and sent to the Yushui River, where I was soaked for three days and three nights. Thanks to the golden body of Liujia who rescued me and returned to the west, I played with the Tathagata, and the Tathagata let me go down to earth, turning him into a Taoist priest, and pushed you down the well here. , Immerse you for three years, to repay my hatred for the three-day flood. One drink and one peck, just because of the pre-determined, and my lion did not do it voluntarily, so I can’t beat it.”

Before Sanzang said anything, the king asked in a trembling voice, "He didn't do it voluntarily? Did he push me down the well? Or did he make friends with me?" The monster under Sanzang's feet struggled to raise his head, and he was powerless to turn back into a human. He changed back to the handsome appearance of a Taoist priest, and now his strength is gradually losing, and the characteristics of a monster are revealed. His face is blue and his fangs are red, his eyes are red, but his voice has not changed. It is still the familiar tone of the past: "I... did not voluntarily... push you down the well."

This is what he said sincerely, and he couldn't help but go down to earth under the decree, the five-year limit, with two years to spare, he couldn't delay any longer.He was just a goblin in Mount Wutai, a hideous lion. Who would want to talk about Buddhism and Taoism with the lion? He has been a demon for thousands of years, but he has not lived in the mortal world for five years. He stands against others He has a superficial appearance, a fear in his heart, and never dared to show his true face to others. The king regarded him as a confidant and had a deep affection for him. He made up lies from Zhongnanshan. In order to fulfill this lie, he repeated one after another. , the identity is false, the origin is false, only the knowledge and emotion of poetry and calligraphy in his belly are true, the past two years seem to be stolen, when he was still the lion that rolled on the spot, he never thought of such a thing. Fan scene.But he had to do it. The Buddha's decree he received hit his back and penetrated into his body. The Buddha's light did not harm the cultivating goblins, but he descended to the earth and turned into a harmful monster. The Buddha's light eroded him day and night, Forced him, and finally made a move.

He sealed off the imperial garden, set up traps on the glass well, and went to the well to grab the Dingyan Pearl from the Dragon King and put it in the king's mouth, just to preserve his face, and went down the well again and again in the middle of the night to draw out the king's soul. The sorcery confuses him, making him mistakenly think that he is not dead, and the corpse is never under his feet. Talk to him as in the past, stroll in the imperial garden, and talk about the world.

The world is vast, and it's hard to find a confidant, so how could he voluntarily push him down the well again.

The king knelt down to Manjusri Bodhisattva, kowtowed and said: "In the past, I did not know the true face of the Bodhisattva and offended the Bodhisattva. Now Lei Ming realizes that the crime is deserved. The Bodhisattva should blame him. I just ask the Bodhisattva not to hurt him."

The prince called out to his father, his voice was very sour, the king stretched out his arms to hug him, and tears fell: "I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for your mother, but I don't blame him for this matter... It all happened because of me. I'm leaving, you must be a wise king."

Sanzang loosened the shackles, and the lion struggled to get out from under his feet, but he couldn't even struggle to kowtow, and lay down on the ground: "Bodhisattva... I have fulfilled the Buddha's mandate, so I might as well go back quickly."

Manjusri Bodhisattva recited Amitabha Buddha in mid-air; "You were originally a lion cat in Wutai Mountain. You listened to the Buddha's voice every day and soaked in spiritual energy to become refined. If you want to practice to become a Buddha and an immortal, you are destined to suffer a calamity. Now this calamity has passed. It's time to go back with me." He said to the king again: "You are a man of the ninth world, and your life is precious, but you were punished for the temptation, and now you will continue to be the king in the mortal world. At the end of your life, you will be able to cultivate your golden body and return to Lingshan."

The lion and the king kowtowed to the Bodhisattva again. Manjushri recited a mantra, and the lion returned to its original body. The wound on his body healed. He sat on the lion's back, nodded to Sanzang, and stepped on the ground. Xiangguang left.

Putting up the awning, the monkey watched the auspicious cloud disappear from a distance, and suddenly said to Sanzang: "Those Bodhisattvas are really troublesome. They only say that ordinary people are wrong. Why don't they say that when they see ordinary people, they ask if they want to return to the west? Which one?" Ordinary people would answer him? If you ask Grandpa like this, if you don’t beat him to death, you will be called Monkey King.”

But Sanzang thought over there, if he compiles a scripture book in the future, he must use one of them to describe how various Bodhisattvas enlighten ordinary people. Although the methods are different, they are exactly the same. If he becomes a Bodhisattva, he will also What kind of enlightenment meeting should be held to teach those bodhisattvas how to communicate correctly with ordinary people.

Send it to Manjusri Bodhisattva, and the demons sent the king, prince, and Wen Gongsun back to the main hall of the Wuji Kingdom, where the queen was sitting in the hall, and all the officials were in a mess. They all thought that the king, the prince and the monster died together. What to do, seeing them flying over from the sky on auspicious clouds, they all knelt down, the king descended from the clouds, held the queen in one hand, and the prince in the other, sent them back to the palace to sit down, reorganized all the officials, and treated Sanzang again. Thank you so much, I personally led all the officials to send them out of the city gate. The two boxes and cages on the roller shutters were refilled with dry food. The king sent them straight for dozens of miles.

For the remaining ten years, he worked diligently to govern the country, and supported the prince to the throne. Wen Gongsun and the prince reconciled and took over his father's position as Minister of the Ministry of War. To make up for it, Lei Ming has been the Supreme Emperor for 20 years, and he has rebuilt the imperial garden, but the copper lock is still hanging, and he only goes for a walk in the inner room every day, and finally dies and dies.When he exhaled his last breath, he saw the Buddha's light coming from the sky, the auspicious clouds covered the sky, the Buddha's voice wafted, and Manjusri Bodhisattva turned into the appearance of an old monk, walking towards him, followed by a man with a strange face and yellow hair, Looking at him nervously.

Lei Ming raised his hand and said to him: "My little brother's surname is Lei, followed by the word Ming. I don't know what your brother's name is?"

The Bodhisattva stood still, didn't speak, and smiled. The man walked up to him and also cupped his hands: "My master, there is no word or name, it's just a lion spirit in Wutai Mountain."
