The old man behind the door looked at Tang Sanzang suspiciously through the crack in the door, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a monk? Which monk was wearing a tiger skin coat and a weasel felt hat? This is obviously a strongman in the Wuthering Mountains and Forest, the king of the mountain! You still want to lie to me, am I stupid?

Tang Sanzang showed an innocent and kind smile and said: "Old man, the poor monk is a monk from the Tang Dynasty in the eastern region, and he went to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. ”

The old man said behind the door: "Do you really think that I will be dizzy when I am old?! How can there be a monk dressed like this, and besides, the Dongtu Datang is far away from this place, and there are even beasts and strongmen in the meantime, how did you come here as a monk?"

Tang Sanzang explained: "Uncle, the poor monk did not come alone, there are three apprentices, open the road in the mountains, stack bridges when encountering water, expel wild beasts, and subdue demons to protect the poor monks, so as to get this." ”

The old man said behind the door: "Today, my family is doing things, and it is inconvenient to accept guests, so the elder should go to another place to stay!"

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "I have eyes that don't know the true sacred, but I worship the fake monk, and my grandson is going to live in your house today." Bajie, let's go in. ”

"Okay, Brother Monkey!"

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie jumped directly on the wall, crossed in, and for a time the courtyard was full of ping-pong noises, frightened crying, falling, and crashing, and there was also mixed with the laughter of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie.

Tang Sanzang shouted outside: "Wukong, Bajie, Hugh is rude~"

With a bang, the door was knocked open, Tang Sanzang was startled, and hurriedly got out of the way, and a group of monks stumbled out and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The old man in the door also sat on the ground in shock.

Tang Sanzang hurriedly entered the door, helped the old man up and said, "Uncle, are you okay?"

The old man clenched Tang Sanzang's arm, and pointed at Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, who were eating tribute in the courtyard, with a trembling finger, and shouted in horror: "Demon ...... Youkai!"

Tang Sanzang explained: "Old man, they are not monsters, they are the apprentices of poor monks, and they have the ability to subdue demons and subdue demons. ”

Sha Wujing also walked in and said with a smile: "What the master said is right. Senior brother, second senior brother is amazing. ”

The old man was dizzy for a while, and there was another one!!

After some explanation, the old man finally accepted the identity of Tang Sanzang and others, prepared a sumptuous dinner, and entertained Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice with dozens of vegetarian dishes.

After dinner, the old man's family sat in the house with Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice to talk.

Tang Sanzang asked curiously, "Uncle, what did you do before?"

Zhu Bajie said with a smile: "Master, what you are asking is too unlevel, what else can it be?" It must be 'Qingzhai', 'Ping'an Zhai', and 'Liuchangzhai'." ”

The old man shook his head and sighed, "No!"

The rest of the family also had sad faces.

Tang Sanzang asked curiously, "What is that?"

The old man said sadly: "It's a 'pre-cultivation fast'. ”

Zhu Bajie laughed and said: "Uncle, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, why bother to prevaricate us with lies? Buddhist fasting, there are only 'pre-repair and storage of fasting' and 'pre-repair filling and returning fasting', where is there a 'pre-repair of the dead fast'? Could it be that you can still predict that your family is going to die?"

The old man looked at the only little girl in the room, and with tears streaming down his eyes, he said, "This fasting is for her, and this is my daughter's weight of gold." ”

The two women in the room were also wiping their tears with handkerchiefs and bowing their heads and sobbing.

Sun Wukong looked at the woman and asked, "Could it be that this girl has some serious disease?"

The old man shook his head and said, "There is no evil disease!"

Sun Wukong said: "You old man, this girl is healthy and healthy, and she has no evil diseases. The Raush 'pre-fast' you did for her?

The old man said, "Elders can see the big river in front of you?"

Tang Sanzang nodded and said: "See, I saw a stone tablet with the words 'Tongtian River' written on it, 'Eight hundred miles away, and few people in ancient times' were written on it. ”

The old man asked, "Have you ever seen the Inspiration Dawang Temple upstream?"

Tang Sanzang shook his head and said, "This is not possible?"

Sun Wukong squatted on a chair and asked, "What is the King of Inspiration?"

The old man wept and said, "About 30 years ago, the Tongtian River broke out in a flood, flooding fertile fields and destroying people's homes. At this time, the king of inspiration descended from heaven and calmed the flood. After that, Shi Ganlin and Qingyun protected us from the wind and rain. ”

Sun Wukong smiled and said, "This is a good thing! What are you doing so sadly?"

The old man wept bitterly and said, "The inspiration king of that day was killed, but he asked for a boy and a girl as a sacrifice, and every year he had to collect a pair of boys and girls in the village. ”

Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice were suddenly shocked.

After that, Sun Wukong and they made a righteous move, Sun Wukong became a scale of gold, and Zhu Bajie became Chen Guanbao, replacing two boys and girls to make sacrifices, and suddenly shot on the night of the sacrifice, injuring the King of Inspiration, causing him to flee in a hurry.

Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong happily returned to Chenjiazhuang, and the family of Master Chen in the manor was anxiously waiting, and when they saw Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong coming back, they hurriedly surrounded them.

Old Man Chen asked anxiously, "Have the two elders ever subdued the Spirit King?"

Zhu Bajie shook his head and said: "That monster's subordinates have some means, and they actually let it escape and leave this." ”

Zhu Bajie had a palm-sized red scale in his hand.

Master Chen's family immediately changed their faces.

Master Chen hurriedly knelt down and said, "Two holy monks, you must subdue that monster! If you injure it, it will definitely come to Chenjiazhuang to take revenge, what can we do?!"

Zhu Bajie hurriedly helped Master Chen up and said, "Don't worry, old man, we will definitely catch it." ”

Tang Sanzang and his entourage were harassing in Chenjiazhuang for a few more days, and the King of Inspiration did not move, as if he was dead.

Until this evening, there was heavy snow in the sky, Tang Sanzang stood in front of the window of the room and looked out and said, "Wukong, Bajie, which of you has the supernatural power to catch this inspiration king? ”

Sun Wukong was lying on the bed with Erlang's legs crossed, and Hang Erlang said: "Little monk, you don't know that my old grandson is not good at water warfare. ”

Tang Sanzang turned his head to look at Zhu Bajie.

Zhu Bajie shouted: "Master, that monster is a creature in the water, and its strength under water cannot be underestimated, and my old pig is not an opponent." ”

Tang Sanzang sighed and said, "How is this good?"

Early the next morning, news spread in the village that the Tongtian River was frozen over.

All the villagers ran to the river, looked at the mirror-like Tongtian River, and pointed in amazement.

Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice also came to the river.

Tang Sanzang's heart moved, and he said, "Apprentices, this is a good opportunity to pass through the Tongtian River!"

Sun Wukong looked at the Tongtian River with fiery eyes, it was indeed frozen, yes, there was no trace of demonic energy, but with a trace of divine aura.
