[Journey to the West] The monster took me away again

They rode across the bridge, and there were dozens of gates on all sides of the city, and the surrounding area was more than a hundred miles away, with towering towers and colorful clouds and mist.

After the four masters and apprentices entered the door and watched, they saw six streets and three markets, where goods were grown and made rich, and everyone was dressed luxuriously. Among the crowd, dozens of monks, all wearing shackles and chains, begged along the street, which was particularly conspicuous.

Chen Wei got off his horse, walked up to them and clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, which temple monks are you? What crime did you commit?"

Several monks looked up at him, saw his familiar face, and knelt down in fear: "Master, the poor monk and others are the monks of Jinguang Temple."

"Golden Light Temple?" Chen Wei wondered why the name sounded familiar, but couldn't remember which plot in Journey to the West it was.

"Where is your temple? When did you make a mistake and kneel here?" Wukong tapped the shackles around their necks with his hands. It was so heavy that it was difficult for ordinary people to do things normally with this thing.

The monks looked at Wukong's frowning face and opening his mouth to speak human language, and answered him with fear: "It's just around the corner over there. I dare not say what crime I committed here. You can come with us."

They walked in front, and Chen Wei took three apprentices and led the white dragon horse to follow behind.

Sure enough, there was a mountain gate at the corner of the street. Chen Wei looked up at the horizontal plaque that read "Guo Guo Jin Guang Temple".

Stepping into the temple, one can only see the fragrance of the ancient hall, the verandahs sweeping the autumn wind, the cobwebs climbing the cage on the thousand-foot pagoda, the meditation hall is deep, and the dust on the golden body of the Bodhisattva is half a finger wide.

The monk in shackles pushed open all the six doors of the main hall, and invited Chen Wei to go up to the hall to worship Buddha.

Chen Wei took out the long incense from his suitcase, lit it and put it in the incense burner, and saw seven or eight young monks locked on the abbot pillar behind him, all of them looked twelve or thirteen years old.

"Why are these locked?"

Chen Wei walked around the Buddha statue, walked up to the young monks, and mentioned the iron chains on them: "What did you do? Why are you always wearing shackles and chains, and the young ones are still chained to this pillar?" .”

The abbot of Jinguang Temple heard strange voices outside the meditation hall, and came out in surprise. He saw a handsome and handsome monk in a red cassock standing among the crowd, and trotted over on the spot. Looking at Chen Wei's face, he knelt on the ground with a plop.

"My lords, did you come from the Eastern Tang Dynasty?"

"Old man, how did you know that we came from the Great Tang Dynasty?" Wu Neng raised his voice and asked, looking at the abbot on the ground with his head.

The abbot of the Jinguang Temple knelt on the ground and wept: "We are waiting here to bear the pain and cry every day. Last night, a god dreamed that there was a holy monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty who could save our lives. avenge this case.”

Chen Wei held back his little apprentice, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm afraid the local land did a good thing, why don't we stay and help them look at the case."

"If you want to stay, you can stay. If there are monsters, my grandson will protect you." Wukong asked him to investigate boldly.

Chen Wei, who received a lot of encouragement from his disciples, pulled up the abbot on the ground, and everyone found a meditation hall to talk about the case of the murdered monks being convicted.

"The mage doesn't know that this city is called Ji Saiguo, which is a big country in Xibang. Since ancient times, our Jinguang Temple has been shrouded in auspicious clouds above the pagoda. People outside have seen it, and the four nearby countries have all looked at it differently."

Speaking of the former Jinguang Temple, the monks in shackles and chains all had nostalgic expressions in their eyes, "But three years ago, at midnight on the first day of July, there was a bloody rain, and everyone was afraid. Our Jinguang Temple We also closed the door early to thank the guests, but who knows that the next morning, the auspicious clouds above the pagoda disappeared, Ruixia also disappeared, and in the middle of the night, it was even darker."

The abbot of Jinguang Temple said in a sad voice: "Someone reported to the king, saying that the monks in my temple stole the relics, which caused the absence of auspicious clouds and the disappearance of the rays of light. The small countries that paid tribute also said that the pagoda has no light. I am not worthy of offering sacrifices to Saiguo. As the head of the four countries, the four countries want to conquer."

"The king has no way, he directly killed my two senior brothers, and put these shackles on all the monks to punish them. Master, I dare to swear to the Bodhisattva, we really did not steal the relic! Master, please be merciful and merciful, and save our lives."

After hearing their stories, Chen Wei clapped his hands suddenly: "The relic must not have been stolen by you! But where is your pagoda? Can you take me there to have a look?" Go up and see if there is anything left clue.

"The mage can rest here first, and have someone serve you to enter and take a bath. After the pagoda was polluted by blood rain three years ago, no one has ever gone up."

Hearing that no one has ever been there before, Chen Wei waved his hand: "That's right, let's go to the pagoda now, and come back for dinner after watching the scene."

"I will also go up to the pagoda with Master." Wukong took out his Ruyi Golden Cudgel from his ear and asked to accompany him.

Seeing their insistence, the abbot had no choice but to lead them to the direction of the pagoda.

"These shackles and iron chains are uncomfortable to carry on your back, Wu Neng, please help them untie them."

Chen Wei called Wu Neng and asked him to remove the shackles and chains from everyone.

Once the things that had been worn for three years were easily taken off, everyone looked at the shackles that fell to the ground and sighed.

The foreign monk who walked in the front said indifferently: "Anyway, no one will see your situation when the temple gate is closed. Don't be so rigid in your life. You haven't made any mistakes. Why do you still wear those things when no one is around? It should be taken down."

The abbot nodded after hearing this, "Master is right. Master is worthy of being a holy monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. It is our fault."

Chen Wei rolled his eyes in disbelief, stopped and waited for the abbot to come up to him, patted him on the back hard, and let him stand up straighter with his shoulders relaxed: "The Buddha said that there is no hindrance to the heart, so there is no hindrance, There is no fear, you are thinking about the things on the pagoda all day long, so you are so afraid every day, and you didn’t go up to take a look for these three years, you did something wrong.”

Being wronged like this, no one can be bloody when begging outside every day, rushing to the pagoda to find out, this is their biggest mistake.

A group of people came to the Drum Tower, and the monks who followed them lit the glazed lamps, burned incense, and opened the gate of the pagoda to invite them in.

Standing in front of the pagoda, Chen Wei looked up at the house made of five-color glazed glass. The eaves were filled with beasts, the vase reflected the sky and the moon, white jade railings, and glazed windows. It was a magnificent building.

Looking up, outside the window lattice, in front of God, there are cobwebs everywhere.

"How many floors does this pagoda have?"

"A total of thirteen floors." The monk replied.

"In the past three years, no one has gone up there?" Chen Wei asked.

The monks shook their heads, pointing to the blood stains on the pagoda, "Since it was stained with blood, no one has gone up there again."

After confirming that the group of monks had no guts, Chen Wei waved his hands and picked up his sleeves, picked up a broom that no one wanted on the ground and walked forward: "Okay, I will go in with Wukong, and the rest of you should wait outside. "

Wukong followed him into the pagoda, and everyone could only see the pagoda with the door open, the stairs turned like a cave, and after a while, they couldn't see the figure of the master and the apprentice.

After entering the tower, Chen Wei swiped away the cobwebs blocking the way with a broom. The master and apprentice climbed up layer by layer, and soon reached the twelfth floor. Someone is talking.

"Hush..." Chen Wei grabbed Wukong and pointed to the top of his head. The master and apprentice lowered their footsteps, stepped on the stairs silently, and climbed up.

When I reached the thirteenth floor, I saw two monsters sitting in the center of the pagoda. There were melon seeds, fruits and vegetables in front of both sides, and a pot of good wine. One monster was dragging a wet fish tail behind it, and the other monster had several scars on its face. The long silver carp whiskers turned out to be two fish monsters.

Chen Wei's eyes lit up, and he motioned for Wukong to jump down and grab them.

Wukong obediently got out of the stairs, stepped on the clouds, turned the Ruyi golden cudgel into a fishing net bag, and stood opposite Chen Wei to lift the fishing net bag.

"Hey, look here." Chen Wei emerged from the stairwell, and his words aroused the idea of ​​the two monsters. When they looked over curiously, Wukong behind him threw himself out of his fishing net and trapped them directly.

The two fish monsters panicked all of a sudden, shaking their fish tails and whiskers, and were about to struggle.

"Don't move around, the poor monk has a few questions I want to ask you, if anyone can't answer them." Chen Wei hooked his fingers meaningfully, "Wukong, pull out a monkey hair and turn into a civet cat. Our ugly mermaids play together."

The author has something to say: Last night, I saw some unfinished glutinous rice balls and half a bag of dumplings in the refrigerator, so my culinary soul told me that a new dark dish was about to be born from my hands, so I Put them together and cook and eat.

The sesame-flavored glutinous rice balls are mixed with cabbage and pork dumplings. The taste is good. The disadvantage is that my stomach hurts all day long.

Ah ah ah ah ah
