Seeing a holy monk misses life

The world is in chaos, and it's hard to rest assured.

Among the four masters and apprentices, apart from Tang Sanzang for the time being, whether it is Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, or Sha Wujing, all three of them have a dark side hidden in their hearts.

And this side that tends to be dark, almost everyone has it, it's like a beast in the heart.This beast can be some kind of desire, it can be some kind of greed, or it can be some kind of wanting.For a long time, the beast has been imprisoned in the deepest part of a person's heart, and is bound by the strong shackles called reason.

One thought becomes a demon, one thought becomes a Buddha.

The distance between Buddha and demon is very far, as far as the span between heaven and hell.

The distance between the Buddha and the devil is also very close, so close that it is only in the moment of one choice.

To become a Buddha, you need to get rid of distracting thoughts, eliminate your own evil thoughts and demons, and let go of the evil side, so that you can truly achieve spiritual detachment and become a true Buddha.

The ring of demons is something that the master and apprentice must go through.

There was a hint of deep meaning in the eyes of the Tathagata Buddha. He stared at Guanyin for two seconds, and said in a low and steady voice: "Will those who have cultivated a righteous body regenerate their demons?"

Avalokitesvara paused slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at the Buddha Lord sitting in the most important seat.With four eyes facing each other, Lord Buddha's gentle and somewhat calm and unpredictable gaze seemed to be looking into the depths of his heart.

Guanyin pursed her lips lightly, and replied, "I don't know."

Tathagata Buddha heard the words, smiled lightly, and didn't say any more, as if the question just now was just a casual statement.

After leaving the Lingshan Mountain in the West, Guanyin returned to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea.He stood by the lotus pond again, looking at the golden lotus blooming in the pond, Avalokitesvara was thinking about the words of the Lord Buddha in his mind.

Will those who have cultivated a righteous body be reborn with demons?

Inner demons are transformed by distracting thoughts, and there are too many reasons for the generation of distracting thoughts.

Guanyin raised her hand, looked at her palm, and then looked at her reflection in the water.

A few dragonflies flew over the quiet and gurgling pool, and the dragonflies skimmed over the originally calm water surface, causing a circle of shallow ripples.

Looking at the ripples on the water, Guanyin thought of the flat lake in his heart.Looking back now, it seems that ever since he became the guide of Tang Sanzang's master and disciples, the calm water has had many waves.

This is not a good thing.

Even if he is the guide of Tang Sanzang, master and apprentice, who went to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures, he should not pay too much attention to Tang Sanzang.

The words of Lord Buddha are asking him, and also...

remind him.

Human world.

After the four masters and apprentices said goodbye to Liu Qi, they packed their bags and set off from the farmhouse to continue westward.

On the road, Chu Qi, who was sitting on the horseback, looked at Monkey King who was leading the horse.I don't know the reason, but this big apprentice looks a little sullen, without the usual energetic spirit, he doesn't seem to be in a good state.

Intuition told Chu Zi that all this should be related to Monkey King going to the river early in the morning.

So out of concern for Sun Wukong, after thinking about it for a while, Chu Zi chose to ask: "Wukong, why did you go to the river early in the morning? But what's bothering you?"

Hearing this, Monkey King froze in his footsteps.

He looked back at Chu Zi, scratched his broken hair, and smiled: "It's nothing."

Chu Zi stared into Sun Wukong's eyes for two seconds, "Really."

Sun Wukong nodded, "Master, don't worry."

After the words fell, Sun Wukong thought for a while and said selectively: "I just had a dream last night."

After speaking, thinking of the charming and beautiful dream, and seeing the gaze of the person in the dream staring at him at this moment, the tips of Monkey King's ears couldn't help turning red.

Fortunately, his neat black hair covered his slightly red ear tips, so no one else could see it.

But Chu Zi is a very perceptive person after all, he caught a trace of shyness in Sun Wukong's eyes, and saw that Sun Wukong was avoiding his eyes intentionally or unintentionally at the moment, so he probably guessed that the big apprentice's dream should be with him He is related, and the dream is most likely of the more lingering kind.

Chu Zi laughed a little.

However, he did not show this emotion in front of Monkey King.Since the stone monkey didn't know what to say, he pretended not to know, and left the topic alone.

Seeing that his master stopped talking, Sun Wukong breathed a sigh of relief.If the master continued to ask, he might be seen through by the master.

Although he has expressed his heart to the master, he has kissed the master more than once, and the master knows his love.But the self in the dream suppressed the master below, entangled the master fieryly and violently, and the crazy feeling of wishing to integrate himself into the master's body was still Monkey King when he faced the gaze of the master's eyes , giving birth to a bit guilty conscience.

It was the self in that dream who unscrupulously tossed the master back and forth, but in this world, Sun Wukong could only obediently observe the master's face, cautiously probing, step by step to surpass himself and The distance between masters.

However, although compared with himself in the dream, he is a bit timid in this world.But the Holy Father thinks that this is a process he must go through, and one day, sooner or later, he will be able to put everything in his dream into action in this world.

Thinking of this, Monkey King turned around.

After this little episode of talking with Master, his state quickly recovered, and his expression was no longer gloomy.

Zhu Bajie, who was walking behind the white dragon horse, glanced at Monkey King's back, and then thought of the meeting between Monkey King and Master just now.Zhu Bajie felt a little heartbroken in the atmosphere where no one else could get in, and even the hand holding the nine-tooth nail rake tightened a bit.

And Sha Wujing, who was walking at the back, also clenched his hand carrying the bag a little bit.He could feel that under the seemingly calm surface, some strange undercurrent was slowly brewing between the four of them, master and apprentice.

It seems that as long as there is an opportunity and a fire, the storm can be ignited.

This is probably what the world often says, the calm before the storm.

Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

A few more months passed, and after the snow covered the branches, the three autumn frost scenes ushered in.

However, it is clearly autumn, and it should be an elegant season with cool breeze and continuous drizzle, but the air is filled with a scorching heat.

As the master and apprentice walked forward, the heat in the air became thicker.

While wiping the sweat dripping from his face with his hands, Zhu Bajie sighed, "What the hell is this weather? How can it be so hot!" The black monk's hat on top of his head was fanning himself with the hat.

Not only Zhu Bajie, but even Sun Wukong was covered with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead due to the heat.And Sha Wujing, who was carrying the luggage, even took off his outer shirt, exposing his chest.

Among the four masters and apprentices, only Chu Xun didn't sweat much, probably because Chu Xun himself was easier to calm down than the three apprentices, and he was wearing a monk's uniform in Chaoyin A gift from Avalokitesvara at the time of the cave.

The monk's robe woven from ice silk can well resist the rushing heat.Therefore, compared with the three apprentices, he is relatively more resistant to heat.

Zhu Bajie saw that there was no sweat on Chu Zi's face, so he couldn't help being envious: "Master, don't you feel hot at all?"

Chu Zi replied truthfully: "There are some."

After Zhu Bajie heard the words and looked ahead, he suddenly thought of something, and said: "Master, I heard that there is a Sihari country on the west road, which is the place where the sunset is, commonly known as the end of the sky. There it is!"

Upon hearing this, Monkey King sneered, "You're talking nonsense again."

Zhu Bajie retorted: "Why am I talking nonsense?"

Sun Wukong said: "From childhood to old age, from old age to three lives, you can't reach the end of the sky."

Zhu Bajie ignored Sun Wukong, but said to Chu Zi: "Master, you come to judge, if it is not the place where the sunset is what I said, why is the weather so hot?"

Listening to the conversation between Zhu Bajie and Monkey King, and seeing this desert-like environment, Chu Qi couldn't help but think of the difficulty in the original Journey to the West.

Although Chu Zi can't remember the memories related to the plot in the original book very vaguely, but this hot feeling still reminds him of the Flame Mountain.

Chu Zi thought for a while and said, "It's probably because the weather is not correct, and the autumn and summer regulations are in effect."

After Chu Zi finished speaking, the four masters and apprentices walked for more than ten miles, and the fattest Zhu Bajie couldn't bear it.

Sweating profusely, like Sha Wujing, he took off his outer shirt, unbuttoned his inner shirt, and exposed his chest.

However, this did not bring much coolness.

In the end, Zhu Bajie simply walked to a slightly shaded place and stopped. He sat on a rock and panted and said to Chu Zi: "Master, let's rest. I am really hot, old pig."

Chu Zi looked at the seemingly endless road ahead, saw the sweat on the faces of the three apprentices, and nodded slightly, "Then take a rest first."

In fact, his own body temperature was also rising, and fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

After Chu Zi dismounted, Sun Wukong quickly took out a cushion and put it on a rock, and led Chu Zi to sit on it. Then he took out a water bag from his luggage and handed it to Chu Zi: "Master, drink water."

Chu Zi didn't look at the water bag that Monkey King handed him, but looked at Monkey King.

The hair on Sun Wukong's forehead was wet with sweat, and beads of sweat rolled down his handsome and tough face, making his wheat-colored skin seem to be stained with a layer of honey-like luster.

Seeing that Chu Zi didn't answer, Sun Wukong asked, "What's the matter, Master?" His voice was lower than usual, because of the steaming heat, there was a slight panting and hoarseness.

Chu Zi shook her head slightly without saying much, and took the water bag from Sun Wukong's hand.But Chu Zi didn't drink immediately, but took out the handkerchief that he carried with him, and said to Monkey King, "Come closer."

Sun Wukong was overjoyed, he understood the master's meaning in seconds, he walked forward happily, then bent down, and brought his face closer to the master.

Chu Zi stretched out her hand and wiped the sweat off Sun Wukong's face with a handkerchief.

Sun Wukong half-closed his eyes, like a large beast being groomed, revealing a kind of intoxicated laziness.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Bajie frowned, but soon he adjusted his expression and walked over to Chu Yu and Monkey King, "Master, I think Master can help me wipe my sweat."
