Chapter 812: Dragons, Tigers, Deer, Sheep, and Fish
Leaving the dry pine stream Huoyun Cave, Tang monks and apprentices walked for more than a month, and one day they were moving forward and found a spacious river blocking the road. www.biquge.info The water of the river is pitch black, and the waves are rolling, forming water splashes, which is the Heishui River.
was worried that he couldn't cross the river, but he saw a person carrying a small boat down the river, and Tang Seng hurriedly asked Sha Seng to call the ferryman to dock. However, the boat is so small that it can seat two or three people at most, so it can only cross the river in two trips. Zhu Bajie helped Tang Seng to get on the boat first, and as soon as the boat reached the middle of the river, a big wave suddenly overturned the boat.
Seeing that Tang Seng, the boatman and Zhu Bajie fell into the river and didn't come up for a long time, Sun Wukong and Monk Sha realized that something was wrong, but they were afraid that there were monsters in the water and took Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie captive.
Sha Seng is good at water, took the initiative to invite Ying to explore the truth in the water, found the monster's cave house Heishui River Mansion, and happened to hear the monsters and demons inside said that they wanted to bring the steamer, cooked the two monks and ate them, and invited his uncle to eat Tang monk meat together.
Sha Seng didn't listen to it, and when he heard it, he couldn't resist the anger and smashed the door of the mansion, and was so shocked that the monster came out with a steel whip in his hand.
The two fought in the water for dozens of rounds without a win, and the sand monk deliberately lured the monster out and let Sun Wukong beat him. But the monster was also shrewd, and when he saw that the sand monk was gone, he did not chase him out of the water, but returned to the water again.
Sha Seng had no choice but to go to see Sun Wukong and explain to him the reality of what he was listening to below.
"Uncle, I don't know where this monster's uncle is? Since he is a monster in the water, what kind of marriage is there with the Dragon King? It's just that where is the Dragon King?" Sun Wukong muttered in confusion.
was muttering, only to see a dark, gray-haired old man emerge from the small ditch next to the Heishui River, bowed to Sun Wukong, said that he was the river god of the Heishui River, and said that the monster came to Heihe from the West Sea at high tide and forcibly occupied his water house. But the status of the river god is low, and he is soft-spoken, so he went to the West Sea to sue the people who ignored him, and he wanted to go to the Jade Emperor but it was not enough for that level, and he couldn't even enter the Nantianmen.
Sun Wukong listened to his sad words, and he was only slightly pitiful for what happened to him, but knowing the origin of the monster still made Sun Wukong very happy. It's good to have a background, save me the trouble of my grandson, and directly find someone who can cure you.
Instructed Sha Seng to take care of the luggage and horses, Sun Wukong went straight to the West Sea, found Ao Qin, the Dragon King of the West Sea, and explained the reason directly to him. When Ao Qin heard this, he secretly scolded the little beast who didn't know how to die, and immediately apologized to Sun Wukong, and sent his eldest son, the eldest prince of Xihai, Mo Ang, to order Qi Hai Dragon Soldiers to arrest the nephew.
A small dragon, although he has some skills and talents, but after all, his cultivation is still shallow, how can he be the opponent of his big cousin Moang. Although Xiaolong was unruly, he was easily injured and taken away by Moang and escorted back to the West Sea.
Seeing his unconvinced appearance when he left, Sun Wukong not only did not get angry, but was happy. Looking at this arrogant little dragon, Sun Wukong seemed to see himself who was making trouble in the heavenly palace like everything in the sky back then. People always have to experience failures and setbacks to grow, and it is not necessarily good to always have smooth sailing.
A person who likes to talk with a stick suddenly does not use force, and that line is undoubtedly deeper. This time, Sun Wukong just went to the West Sea, and naturally someone came to work hard to solve the trouble for him, and this means of taking advantage of the situation is more clever.
Obviously, Sun Wukong is also growing, and it seems to be growing up very fast!
With the help of the Heishui River God, the Tang monks and apprentices crossed the Heishui River and continued on the road, along the way, wind, frost, rain and snow, cold and summer, day and night hard work, and came to the border of Chechi in the early spring of the following year. In the distance, the master and apprentice heard bursts of shouting, as if someone was shouting neatly.
Sun Wukong went to inquire about the situation and found that a Taoist priest was supervising the work of a group of monks. This thing is really fresh and interesting, Sun Wukong saw it strangely, and even turned into a Taoist priest to ask the reason.
It turned out that when there was a great drought in Chi Guo 20 years ago, three Taoist priests came, namely Huli Daxian, Luli Daxian and Yang Li Daxian. Because they waited for the altar to ask for rain, and those monks chanted the sutra all day long and begged for rain, but not a drop of water fell. Therefore, the king of Chechi made the three Taoist priests as national teachers, and punished those monks for them as slaves.
Look at this westward journey, there are still strange things, one thing is more strange and interesting than the other.
In fact, everyone knows that the three national teachers of this Che Chi Country are all monsters. Supposedly, they don't have the ability to make the wind and rain master thunder and lightning mother! This tiger, deer, and sheep are not animals in the water, how can they travel clouds and rain, and the four gods of wind, rain, thunder and lightning are still so obedient?
Among them, there is no doubt that someone is making a fuss, and the four gods of wind, rain, thunder and lightning are just beating the side drums.
You say that these three monsters have a grudge against those monks? This monster wants to pretend to be a Taoist priest for Mao, not a monk? And worship the Sanqing Patriarch, which is a bit interesting.
Actually, it goes without saying that these three monsters were sent by the Oriental Taoist Xuanmen to make trouble for Buddhism. As for whose order was received, we don't have to delve into it. It's just that the three poor monsters are really sad, they were used as guns and didn't know it, and they crashed into Sun Wukong and sent them to death. In the end, they died, but did anyone say a word for them? No! It seems that the three demons and Tang monks and apprentices are just fighting for their will, but is this really the case? With their little deeds, why do they dare to fight with Tang monks and apprentices?
We won't go into detail about this car Chi Guo's fighting method, on the surface, the wonderful fighting method is actually very boring.
Ji Sheng, who secretly came to Che Chiguo, watched all this farce as if he was watching a play. Before leaving, in line with the principle of waste utilization, I took some deer blood and took a tiger whip by the way. I heard that deer blood and tiger whip are both great supplements, these two demons also have some Taoism, their deer blood and tiger whip must be more effective, Ji Sheng is really interested in giving it a try, anyway, it's idle if it's okay, always find something interesting to do.
Take a bottle of strong wine and soak the tiger whip first, Ji Sheng, who tasted the blood of the deer, felt the heat rising all over his body, and couldn't help but secretly praise, good thing! Bai Yuniang was in retreat in the cave where Ji Sheng was carrying, and Ji Sheng, who was thinking about it for a while, directly teleported to the South China Sea.
Let's not mention the obvious bad things between Ji Sheng and Guanyin, but let's talk about this Tang monk and apprentice who changed Guan Wen and left Che Chiguo, and that one went all the way to the west, walked for a few months, and it was autumn in a blink of an eye.
At dusk that day, they came to a great white river, and it was by the Tongtian River that they had arrived. This river is 800 miles wide, and it sounds scary, is this a river or a sea?
Even if it is 800 miles of land, it will not be able to walk for a few days, and there is still a special river, how can this be crossed? Ferry over? The boatman must die of exhaustion on the way.
Seeing that it's getting late, the master and apprentice are all together, so let's find a place to live first!
When they arrived at a village called Chenjiazhuang on the bank of the Tongtian River, the Tang monks and apprentices learned about the situation, and it turned out that there was an inspiration temple by the Tongtian River, and the temple enshrined a king of inspiration. The King of Inspiration eats a pair of boys and girls every year, and if you don't offer a boy, the place will be flooded, and if you don't offer a boy, you will have a good year.
As soon as this clear-eyed person heard this, he knew that it was not a god, but a monster! Immediately, Sun Wukong discussed with Zhu Bajie, and the two became the boy and virgin who were to be enshrined, ready to deal with the King of Inspiration.
After the offering, the King of Inspiration came that night. He didn't see that Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were fine, and he was caught off guard by Zhu Bajie suddenly raised a nail rake and hit a rake, and was hit with two scales the size of a plate, so frightened that he hurriedly turned into a gust of wind and ran away.
The brothers chased after him, and found that the monster had fled into the river and disappeared. Because the Tongtian River is too big, I can't find it, so I can only go back first.
The King of Inspiration suffered a big loss, was angry, returned to the cave, and the mandarin fish essence in the Tongtian River gave him an idea, and asked him to cast a spell to rain down the frost and freeze the surface of the Tongtian River, leading Tang Seng and his apprentices to cross the river, and secretly attacked and captured Tang Seng. The King of Inspiration acted according to the plan, and it worked, capturing Tang Seng alive.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng went to fight with the King of Inspiration, but they didn't take advantage of it, and led it out of the water, Sun Wukong made a move, and the King of Inspiration was defeated, and he retracted into the water without a few moves.
Sun Wukong was a little depressed, he couldn't do anything in the water, yes, don't bother about that, go ask the Bodhisattva for help!
Sun Wukong, who told Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng to speak, went straight to the South China Sea to find Guanyin Bodhisattva.
When he arrived at Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea, Sun Wukong, who went straight in, had not yet seen Guanyin Bodhisattva, but saw the dragon girl of good fortune come out and stopped him, saying that the Bodhisattva counted him to come and asked him to wait here first.
Sun Wukong waited a little impatiently, and finally saw Guanyin, who was dressed in plain clothes without powder, and who was not yet familiar with the neatness, came out with a small bamboo basket. Sun Wukong, who was stunned, secretly said ashamed, the Bodhisattva came out before he dressed up, and it seems that he is in a hurry!
Sun Wukong naturally wouldn't have thought that Guanyin was resting with Ji Sheng in a stormy storm before, and suddenly Tang Seng had difficulty in getting through the Tianhe, so he couldn't take care of anything else, so he hurriedly made up a bamboo basket to collect the inspiration king and came out.
