Xuanzang entered the palace again.
But this time he took Chen Kang with him.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty felt helpless and said: "Master Xuanzang, the distance between Xitian Leiyin Temple and the Tang Dynasty is thousands of miles away. You don't know martial arts, and demons are rampant outside. How can you get to Leiyin Temple?"
Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said calmly: "Your Majesty's concerns are known to the poor monk. Therefore, the poor monk brought a disciple who is proficient in martial arts this time. Chen Kang, the lay disciple whom the poor monk accepted the day before yesterday."
Chen Kang took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "Chen Kang, a common man, has met your Majesty."
Tang Huang seemed to have no cultivation at all, but Chen Kang could sense some kind of Qi in him.
If Chen Kang dared to attack Emperor Tang, the person who would die would definitely be Chen Kang himself.
Emperor Tang glanced at Chen Kang curiously: "Are you the master's disciple? Are you willing to follow the master to Leiyin Temple?"
Chen Kang nodded and said, "The common people are willing."
Xuanzang said with a smile: "Chen Kang likes Buddhism. He has a profound understanding of Buddhism. If people like Chen Kang can't go to Leiyin Temple, then what kind of people can go to Leiyin Temple?"
Emperor Tang still hesitated.
Chen Kang said: "Your Majesty, how about the civilians show you their martial arts skills. The martial arts of the civilians may not be effective against powerful demons, but there is still no problem in dealing with some wild beasts that block the way."
Emperor Tang smiled and said, "Okay then. Let me see your martial arts skills, Chen Kang."
Chen Kang's boxing performance focuses on speed and strength.
Only speed and strength can demonstrate the power of martial arts.
What a combination of strength and softness.
What kind of artistic conception of boxing.
Emperor Tang was not a pure warrior, so he might not be able to understand.
Speed and power are the essence of violent aesthetics. Everyone can understand it.
In the main hall, Chen Kang exerted his speed to the extreme, and the amplitude of the power of his moves reached thirty times.
With every punch, Chen Kang hit a sonic boom, and his extremely fast movements caused clear afterimages to appear in the hall.
Xuanzang Gujing Bubo's eyes showed shock. He knew that Chen Kang knew martial arts, but he didn't expect that Chen Kang's martial arts was so strong.
Emperor Tang secretly said: "A land god! I never thought that Chen Kang is actually a land god. Chen Kang's martial arts is stronger than Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong."
Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong's fighting power is very powerful. In terms of basic strength, Chen Kang is on par with them, but Chen Kang's martial arts skills are better.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty had nightmares for a while, so he asked Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong to be the door gods.
With the protection of these two people, Emperor Tang had a peaceful sleep.
It is not surprising that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty compared Chen Kang's martial arts with Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong.
A set of boxing exercises is completed.
Chen Kang didn't blush or breath, and stood silently behind Xuanzang.
Emperor Tang still hesitated.
Right now.
A soft golden light emerged out of thin air in the hall.
Only a lotus platform appeared.
Sitting on the lotus platform is a beautiful woman wearing white clothes and smiling.
Her smile and gesture had a mysterious attraction that made Chen Kang suddenly lose his mind.
Chen Kang only felt that she was extremely holy and did not dare to blaspheme in the slightest. He even thought of being willing to die for her.
Fortunately, Chen Kang had a will of steel and a strong mind, and he recovered in time.
Chen Kang quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at her again.
Chen Kang was afraid that her every move would easily change his three views.
horrible.
This person is really terrible!
Xuanzang said respectfully, "The poor monk has seen Guanyin Bodhisattva."
Emperor Tang said: "I have seen the Bodhisattva."
The Emperor of Tang Dynasty was not overly enthusiastic about Guanyin Bodhisattva. After all, the Tang Emperor was a human emperor and had a backer in heaven, so he was not necessarily afraid of the Western Leiyin Temple.
Chen Kang lowered his head
He raised his head and said respectfully, "Chen Kang has met Guanyin Bodhisattva."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "Emperor Tang, Tang Sanzang wants to go to the Great Thunder Sound Temple in the West. Just let him go."
Emperor Tang nodded and said: "Okay. I will write the customs clearance documents to the master later. In order to make it easier for Master Xuanzang to travel west to Leiyin Temple, I can canonize him as his imperial disciple."
Yudi is the emperor's adopted brother.
It can be said that the Emperor of Tang Dynasty gave Guanyin Bodhisattva enough face.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "Tang Sanzang, you have many kalpas on your way to the west. I will give you three magic weapons."
Kasaya, Zen staff, and golden bowl.
These three things are indeed magic weapons.
But Xuanzang had no magic power or true energy, so he couldn't use it at all.
The Zen staff can be used as a walking stick, and the golden bowl can only be used as alms to hold fasting meals.
Guanyin Bodhisattva glanced at Chen Kang.
Chen Kang felt tremendous pressure.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "Chen Kang, are you very proficient in Buddhism?"
Chen Kang quickly said: "I don't dare. I just know a little bit about Buddhism."
Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded and said: "Since you like Buddhism, then follow Tang Sanzang on the westward journey. You must protect your master along the way."
Chen Kang said: "Yes."
With a smile on his lips, Guanshiyin Bo looked at Chen Kang again, then turned into a golden Buddha light and disappeared.
Chen Kang was not a pure Buddhist disciple at all. The Bodhisattva did not even perceive the slightest piety in Chen Kang.
Chen Kang is respectful on the surface, but deep down he is rebellious.
but.
Guanshiyin Bodhisattva did not reveal Chen Kang's little thoughts.
So what if you are unruly?
No matter how unruly and lawless Chen Kang is, can he be as powerful as the monkey five hundred years ago?
Buddhism can save monkeys, but it is not easy to save a mortal like Chen Kang. As long as they are cultivators under the realm of immortals, to the powerful, they are all mortals, no matter how powerful they are.
After arriving at Leiyin Temple, Chen Kang will definitely become a Buddhist.
When the time comes, Leiyin Temple can just make Chen Kang an Arhat.
Guanyin Bodhisattva left, and Chen Kang breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Kang secretly thought: "Guanyin Bodhisattva's cultivation is so strong. It is simply unfathomable. I don't know when I will reach her level."
Until now, Chen Kang has not regarded Guanyin Bodhisattva as an unattainable deity.
Chen Kang just believed that Guanyin Bodhisattva had been practicing for longer than him and had a higher level of cultivation. As long as he keeps working hard, sooner or later he will be able to reach her level of cultivation.
Chen Kang returned to the small courtyard and sent the young man from Shura Tao away safely.
In a few days, Chen Kang will follow Xuanzang to the west, and he will definitely not be able to keep the young man around anymore.
As for young people encountering danger again in the future, they don't care about Chen Kang.
Chen Kang can only guarantee his safety this time, but cannot guarantee his safety for the rest of his life.
What's more, young people on the Shura path have teachers.
As long as he returns to the teacher's gate, he will be safe.
…
A few days later.
morning.
Outside the imperial city.
Chen Kang rode a black horse and Xuanzang rode a white horse.
The horse is a good horse and can travel thousands of miles in a day, but it is still an ordinary horse.
It is incomparable to the white dragon horse and the divine horse.
Chen Kang also brought several packages filled with things such as tents, pots and bowls, seasonings, kitchen knives, etc.
Even if he traveled westward, it was impossible for Chen Kang to really eat and sleep in the open.
Chen Kang would certainly not refuse if he could live better and eat better.
Hard training is about putting in hard work in training, not really about making people endure hardship. Making others endure hardship is not self-cultivation, but asking for hardship.
Chen Kang and Xuanzang were walking very slowly, which was equivalent to taking a walk.
Chen Kang wanted to speed up so that we could meet him soon.
Go to Sun Wukong and ask for advice on spiritual practice.
But Xuanzang's body couldn't hold on.
We can only walk slowly.
Fortunately, Chen Kang has a good temperament and is not impatient, but rather patient.
Chen Kang looked at the sky and said, "Master, we will camp here today. We will continue our journey tomorrow."
Xuanzang looked around and saw that there was no village or shop in front of him, so he could only camp.
Chen Kang first set up the tent, cut grass and fed the horses. After completing these tasks, he went to the stream to fetch water.
Xuanzang was surprised and said: "Chen Kang, I didn't expect you to bring so many things."
Chen Kang smiled and said, "Master, of course you have to prepare all your things when you go out. I don't have enough of these things."
Chen Kang didn't like begging for alms.
Eating other people's leftovers was unhygienic, let alone unhygienic. The little food he asked for was not enough to fill the gap between Chen Kang's teeth.
Chen Kang believes in self-sufficiency.
Food, find a way to get it yourself.
Chen Kang said: "Master, you sit in the tent and rest for a while, I will go to the woods to find something to eat."
Xuanzang nodded and said, "Then you should be more careful."
He thought Chen Kang was going to the woods to find fruit, but he never thought that Chen Kang was going hunting.
Chen Kang got into the woods and disappeared.
Xuanzang sat cross-legged in the tent and recited Buddhist scriptures silently.
Chen Kang's perception range is about five kilometers in radius. As long as he stayed five kilometers away from Xuanzang, Chen Kang could ensure his safety.
Chen Kang's sense of smell, vision, hearing, and skin perception are all beyond those of ordinary people.
It was very easy for Chen Kang to find his prey.
"Three miles away, there is a wild boar."
Chen Kang used his skills and came to the wild boar.
This wild boar weighs at least a thousand pounds.
"Good fellow, this is indeed a world with the aura of heaven and earth. Even ordinary beasts are still very large."
"This big wild boar is enough for a meal."
The wild boar discovered Chen Kang, roared at Chen Kang, and rushed over.
Chen Kang sneered and said: "A beast is a beast. It has no wisdom and can only act on instinct."
Chen Kang slapped the wild boar on the forehead.
The boar fell dead.
Chen Kang mentioned the wild boar and used his skills to leave.
A tiger pounced on Xuanzang.
There was no fear in Xuanzang's eyes. He was still sitting cross-legged in the tent, but there was a look of regret on his face.
He was regretting that he was going to die in a tiger's mouth and had no chance to go to Leiyin Temple to retrieve the scripture.
die?
Xuanzang had seen through life and death.
Sudden.
Buzz.
A branch as thick as an arm made a sharp sound, more penetrating than a siege crossbow.
The branches more than two meters long were like sharp spears, directly nailing the huge tiger to the ground.
It was Chen Kang who took action.
Chen Kang was absolutely sure that as long as Xuanzang was within the sensing range, he would be able to ensure his safety.
Of course, if there is a demon whose cultivation level exceeds that of Chen Kang, that would be a different matter.
When Xuanzang saw Chen Kang walking out of the woods carrying a wild boar, he clasped his hands and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha. Chen Kang, you and I are Buddhist disciples, how can we kill at will?"
People who study Buddhism often compare themselves to the Holy Mother, and they still cannot reason with them.
