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

Xuanzang took Guan Wen and three disciples to the outside of the Donghua Gate, and asked the officials of the Huang Gate to recite: "The poor monk is a person who went to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. He wants to face the saint and change Guan Wen."

Seeing that his appearance was different from ordinary people, the Huangmen officer brought three monks with different looks and clothes, and asked them to wait a moment, and went into the hall to report by himself.

"There are four foreign monks outside, claiming that they were sent by the imperial envoy of the Tang Dynasty to the west to worship Buddha and learn Buddhist scriptures. If they want to see my king, they switch Guan Wen."

The king of Jisai Kingdom was overjoyed when he heard that, "The Great Tang Dynasty in Dongtu is tens of thousands of miles away from here, yet some Buddhist scriptures come here, please hurry up."

The decree was announced to bring in the four masters and apprentices who were waiting outside.

The leading monk, with a face like a crown of jade, wearing a brocade cassock and holding a nine-ringed tin staff, walked behind the Huangmen official neither humble nor overbearing.

Behind him, first there was a monkey with a triangular face covered in brown hair, followed by a fat man with a long nose and fan ears, and the tall blue-faced monk walking at the end walked through the place with his head lowered. Four feet high beams.

When all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty saw this strange combination of four people, they were all terrified, and they were all terrified, and dared not look at it for a long time.

Xuanzang brought three disciples to the front of the hall to salute: "The poor monk is the imperial envoy of the Tang Dynasty in the eastern land of Danbuzhou in the south. Guan Wen, check and let go."

The king of Ji Saiguo read Guan Wen again, and after confirming that what he said was correct, he rejoiced: "You, the king of the Tang Dynasty, can choose eminent monks, and you don't have to avoid long distances to worship my Buddha to learn scriptures. The monks here only concentrate on being thieves and defeating the country. !"

Thinking of the group of monks in Jinguang Temple, the king blew his beard and stared angrily, and before Xuanzang asked, he began to complain.

"The country of the widow is a state in the Western Regions. There are often tributes from the four countries. It is because there is a Jinguang Temple in the country. There is a golden pagoda in the temple. The relics are enshrined on the pagoda. The brilliance is so high. There has been no glory for three years, and foreign countries have not come to court for three years."

Xuanzang stood below and looked at the bitter king expressionlessly: "The poor monk stayed at the Jinguang Temple last night. After learning about the case three years ago, he led his disciples to the top of the pagoda. For the little thief who stole the relics, the two thieves are now in the Jinguang Temple, and the king can send someone to get them."

The king, who was still talking non-stop above, opened his mouth in embarrassment, "Catch... caught?"

"I caught it." Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said coldly, "I heard that three years ago, there was a rain of blood on the top of the pagoda. That little thief has lived there and never left. If someone was willing to take the initiative to investigate, This case will not drag on until today."

The king's face turned red when he was told: "The national teacher said that the blood rain was extremely filthy, and there might be monsters causing trouble, so no one dared to go to the top of the pagoda. The mage is worthy of being an eminent monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. Hurry up, hurry up! Let Jin Yiwei go to Jinguang Temple to arrest the thief, and I will interrogate him myself!"

Knowing the whereabouts of the treasure, the king was so excited that he sent someone to catch the thief.

Jin Yiwei ordered the captain on the spot, drank all the way to the Jinguang Temple, and saw the legendary thief who stole the relic. After seeing the two demon-like monsters, he directly took out the shackles and chains he was carrying, After being tightly bound, they were dragged into the palace.

Along the way, countless people saw with their own eyes that Jin Yiwei dragged out two strange monsters from the Golden Light Temple that had been defeated three years ago.

After some interested people inquired, they learned that the reason for the bloody rain three years ago and the lack of light of the pagoda was caused by this thief.

In a short while, Jin Yiwei came to the front of the white jade steps with two demons, and said to the king: "The demon thief from Jinguang Temple has been captured."

Everyone looked at the two monsters tied to the ground together, and saw that they had a black armor and a long tail, a slippery skin with a huge mouth and a long beard. Although they had heads and limbs like humans, they grew on that body. No matter how you look at it, it's awkward.

The king of Ji Sai Kingdom got off the dragon chair and asked the two monsters: "Where are you monsters? When did you start stealing the widow's treasures? What are your names?"

The two monsters were bitten all night by the orange cat transformed from monkey hair, and their necks were covered with blood. The monk and monkey who caused them to end up like this stood watching them not far away.

So I didn't dare to talk nonsense, so I had to tell the truth: "Three years ago, on the first day of July, there was a Dragon King who led many relatives and lived on the rocky mountain a hundred miles away from here. The nine-headed son-in-law of your family said that there is a relic that shines all the year round in the pagoda that you sacrifice to Saiguo, so he conspired with the Dragon King, stole the relic in a bloody rain, and asked his daughter to steal the queen mother Ganoderma lucidum, and now the Dragon Palace The night inside is as bright as the day all year round, and we two are not thieves, but young generals under the Dragon King."

"Bastard! The pagoda I sacrificed to Saiguo is an important treasure of our country. If you want to steal it, you can steal it, and you have wronged the monks of Jinguang Temple!" The king was furious, and called Jin Yiwei, "Take them two monsters into custody, and come again!" I went to release the shackles of the monks in Jinguang Temple, and I will hold a banquet in Guanglu Temple today, and I would like to thank the monks of the Tang Dynasty for their work in catching the thief."

"Your Majesty, you are being polite. The most important thing now is to send people to the Rocky Mountain to capture the Dragon King and the Nine-Headed Monster who stole the relics, and get the relics back." Xuanzang interrupted with a happy expression on his face. The king who wants to invite them to dinner.

Turning around with the nine-ringed tin stick in his hand, he looked at the people present and continued, "The poor monk has three apprentices, and they can all catch that demon back for His Majesty, as long as His Majesty orders it."

"Down, down, down! The widow will make an order now!"

Hearing that the disciples of the holy monk can catch demons, the king of Jisai quickly asked people to prepare a luxurious banquet. After the three apprentices of the holy monk were full, Wukong burped and patted his stomach. Pat belly: "Idiot, take care of Master, my old grandson is familiar with that place, so I'm going to catch the demon."

After all, he made a somersault cloud and cast a spell. All the emperors and ministers saw a gust of wind and mist, and the disciple of the holy monk had already drifted away.

They held their dropped chins and murmured in amazement: "Our mortals with naked eyes can actually see the Immortal Living Buddha who can ride the clouds and fog, and worship quickly."

From top to bottom, a group of people knelt on the ground and bowed to the direction where Monkey King left.

Wukong drove the wind and went to the Bibotan in the Luanshi Mountain to catch the demons. Xuanzang returned to Jinguang Temple with the remaining two disciples with the customs clearance document stamped with the imperial seal.

Throughout the temple, all the shackles and iron chains on the hands and feet of the monks have been removed. When the last batch of guards left the temple, everyone's eyes were still a little dazed. Many people touched their empty necks and couldn't believe it. They were actually exonerated and freed.

With a rosary wrapped around his wrist, Xuanzang led his apprentice into the gate of Jinguang Temple with a blank expression.

In the hall, countless monks who were rubbing their necks and looking at each other turned their heads to look at the sound of footsteps.

Seeing that the mage from Tang Dynasty had come back, everyone was so excited that tears filled their eyes and wanted to come over and kowtow to thank him.

"Stand aside, the poor monk will ask you for advice when he has something to do." Xuanzang stopped, took off the brocade cassock on his shoulders, and let the sand monk hold it, and the nine-ringed tin rod was also held by Wu Wu.

Holding the rosary in his hand, he crossed the crowd and walked into the main hall, looked up at the golden statue of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva covered in dust, picked up a stick of incense and lit it, put it in the incense burner, took a step back, and stood still.

"I'm afraid that God was transformed by you again that day. Since you want the poor monk to save these monks, please don't appear here for a while."

The golden bodhisattva with a dusty face twitched the corners of his mouth silently, as if he had heard it.

It stood in the hall, watched the monk go out after offering incense, and called the group of monks from Jinguang Temple, from the abbot to the elders, monks and novice monks. When all the members arrived, they sat down cross-legged.

Drifting has brought over a clean futon and put it away obediently.

Xuanzang sat on the futon, looked at the forty monks in front of him, and looked expressionlessly from the abbot of Jinguang Temple all the way to the little novice sitting at the back.

"The poor monk will not talk to you today about catching thieves and getting rid of your crimes. I will talk to you about Buddhism. Abbot, tell me, which scripture says that if you are wronged, you must bear the pain of all the people who don't do harm?"

The abbot of Jinguang Temple has lived to be in his forties, but now he is being taught by a foreign monk in his twenties in front of all his disciples, and he murmurs with red face: "The monks are merciful, how can they do it for the sake of the world?" I lost my dignity for a little thing."

"laugh."

A sneer came from the front, and the foreign monk who was born with a sneer only wore a white uniform, casually twisted the beads in his hand and said: "Who is present here who thinks that what the abbot said is wrong, stand up."

The forty monks looked at me and at you. Finally, three of them stood up slowly, clasped their hands together and saluted: "Master, although we don't agree with the abbot's remarks, we still don't know what to do."

This is also why they couldn't find a reason to refute the abbot's words.

Searching through Buddhist scriptures, there is no such truth to be found.

The Tang monk said with a smile: "The poor monk was born 23 years ago. Before giving birth, he encountered evil people. After falling into the water and escaping, he encountered Jinshan Temple. When he learned that his parents were killed by thieves, the first thing the poor monk did It's blood debt, blood debt, and revenge, do you know how the poor monk's master taught me back then?"

The monks shook their heads. They couldn't guess the answer, but they felt an unusual sense of anticipation, as if they could hear some exciting news from that monk.

"My master led two senior brothers to help me avenge myself and kill my enemies. He told me that no matter who you are or what your status is, the first thing we have to learn is to be a human being. Only when you become a human being can you be qualified to become a monk." Be a monk"

"People are the darlings of heaven and earth, but they also have seven emotions and six desires, love, hate and sorrow. The thief killed my parents. If you don't take revenge, you will not be human. You have not done anything wrong, but you have suffered for three years. Why don't you get angry? Why do you have to forgive kindly ? Hatred proves that you are human, not grass."

"That's a good point! If the abbot didn't stop me yesterday, I would have killed those two monsters with a shoulder pole! Why should we forgive each other with hypocrisy after doing something wrong!"

A young monk jumped out from the crowd and voiced his doubts loudly.

"No, it's not like this... We can persuade them to be good. The Buddhists say that when they think about evil things, they turn into hell; when they think about good things, they turn into heaven. Their bodies are like glass, and they are clear inside and outside, pure and impeccable, bright and vast! "The abbot of Jinguang Temple turned pale with fright at Xuanzang's unreasonable reasoning.

The golden body of the Bodhisattva standing in the hall has long since changed into a more relaxed posture, looking at the debate outside the hall, wanting to hear Xuanzang's answer.

The Buddhist scripture learner from the Tang Dynasty said with a sneer on his face: "A monk, a person who is quiet, a person who is Dharma, who saves people, and an enlightened person, who cleanses his heart from vulgarity and dust, after being kicked on his nose by someone, still want to be quiet? Do you want to be saved? Do you want to change your mind? Everyone here, if you can really calm down and pray for the Buddha here, the poor monk will not be stopped and called for help just after entering the city. Abbot, you are clear inside and outside, and you are pure and innocent. How can a filthy person be thinking about getting rid of his crimes?"
