Bajie and Xiaobailong walked in a hurry.
When Qingfeng and Mingyue reacted, their backs had disappeared.
Mingyue looked at the plate in her hand and felt that it was a hot potato, but she couldn't throw it away.
"Senior brother, what...what should I do?" Mingyue was a little stiff, as if she was really frightened by Bajie's words, for fear of dropping the ginseng fruit.
"What should I do, what should I do... The ginseng fruit is in your hands now, what do you want to do?" Qingfeng's expression and tone were even more complicated. Who knows what kind of emotional ups and downs he experienced in this short moment.
Mingyue saw that his senior brother was becoming more and more impatient. He knew that he must not lose his position at this critical moment. He took a few deep breaths and tried to calm down his mentality gradually——
"Is it useful?"
The breeze also followed him to soothe his emotions, but it didn't seem to have any effect.
Although the fairy fragrance of the ginseng fruit has dissipated a lot...but it is so close to them now! This alluring aroma makes people salivate.
Mingyue, who had just reacted, quickly put the ginseng fruit on the table nearby, and grabbed his senior brother: "Senior brother, you can't eat it, we can't eat it!"
Qingfeng's xinxing was a little weak. While wrestling with Mingyue, he asked loudly: "Why can't I eat?"
"Senior brother, think about it for yourself...if master comes back and learns that their master and apprentice returned the ginseng fruit to us because of mutual humility...we will still eat it openly..." Mingyue's voice increased. A few points: "Senior brother, maybe you think Master's whip is not strong enough!"
"oops!"
Mingyue's words can be said to have awakened the dreamer. After this sudden realization, Qingfeng broke out in a sweat. He was afraid. At this moment, he did not care about maintaining his senior brother's demeanor, and only said anxiously: "It doesn't work on the left, nor on the right." It doesn't work... but it makes us both miserable. It's all Master's fault. He insists on leaving us with such a problem. Or don't give it to us. If you want to give it, give it all, but only two..."
"Hush! Hush! Hush -" Ming Yue saw that her senior brother was so bold and dared to speak ill of the master, so she quickly reached out to cover his mouth.
Qingfeng also broke the jar at this moment. He held Mingyue down with his backhand and said: "What do you think we should do? Not eating is also against the teacher's order. Eating is still against the teacher's order. You can't escape a whip. ...I don’t care so much, I will die as a dead ghost.”
"Senior brother, don't do this!" Mingyue took advantage of his brother's release to get the ginseng fruit. He turned over and pressed him down with a tiger pounce, saying: "I have a way to ensure that everything is safe!"
"Do not listen!"
Peng!
Mingyue received a punch.
hiss--
Pass!
Qingfeng was kicked.
The abilities of the two people were actually evenly matched, and they couldn't tell the difference for a moment. They were both very impatient. After exchanging moves, there was a slight stalemate. They both said at the same time: "Stop fighting, and then fight again." You won’t win!”
After they finished speaking, they looked at each other, but no one said anything.
In the end, it was Qingfeng who spoke first: "You tell me your method first. If I don't agree with it, then I'll eat the fruit...I eat it, and you eat it too. We brothers will enjoy the blessings and adversities together."
Mingyue: Senior brother, you clearly want to drag me into the water...
"Let's enshrine the fruit to the 'Heaven and Earth Tablet'. Even if the master comes, he won't be able to tell us apart." Mingyue spoke very quickly.
"Didn't you tell me earlier that you had such a good idea?" Qingfeng had already let go of Mingyue, picked up the fruit plate with his hands, and urged: "Hurry up! Be careful if the fruit is spoiled, it will look dishonest if we go there again!"
Mingyue:...
In the end, he just sighed helplessly and quickly followed behind his senior brother.
.......
In the guest room of the five masters and disciples.
Fa Hai only had a slight understanding, but he was not in concentration.
Therefore, he listened to the words between several disciples. However, he did not interfere too much with these apprentices who wanted to cause trouble. He believed that they would have a sense of proportion. He couldn't just keep an eye on them all the time to feel at ease, right?
Besides, it's not something out of the ordinary. No matter how powerful they are, they plan to have Wukong recite sutras and chant Buddha's name in front of all the Bodhisattvas and true Buddhas in the Great Thunder Sound Temple in Lingshan?
In the past, Bajie and Xiao Bailong couldn't listen to Wukong chanting sutras, nor could they give him any adjustment suggestions. They had to rely on him to figure it out on his own; but now they have Wu Jing who is not afraid... It is said that they have discussed it in private. Several plans were made.
In the past, Fa Hai would arrange practice tasks for each of them during night practice, but recently, apart from occasionally reminding them of the Eight Precepts, Fa Hai rarely interfered with their respective practices.
They will adjust their training courses according to their own needs... everything is already on the right track.
Fa Hai thinks that he is still a compassionate monk. Although it is inevitable that he will look angry at times, he would not be like this if he did not see demons doing evil.
Moreover, compared to transforming evil spirits, he is just better at the method of salvation.
In fact, whether it is transformation or salvation, it is essentially about punishing evil and promoting good. The real difficulty lies in how to draw the line between control and transcendence.
He had learned this lesson and had also fallen into the devil's path. Although he finally woke up, it was not something he could easily overcome in his heart.
Therefore, while traveling westward, he seemed to be teaching his four disciples, so why not reflect on his past actions?
What's more, these four disciples have very different personalities, with some good and some shortcomings. Fahai himself doesn't know what kind of person he can teach them. Fahai prefers to regard this as a discussion between the five masters and apprentices, to promote and learn from each other.
Because he did gain a lot of insights from the four disciples.
Buddhism and Dharma power should have both. Without the support of strong Dharma power, no matter how profound the Dharma is, it will be nothing more than a mirror.
From this point of view, Buddhism is the basis for persuading people to do good and transforming sentient beings; and magic power is the means to make those monsters, monsters, and evil spirits listen to the teachings of Buddhism honestly.
If we just blindly kill, what use is the Dharma?
But if you don't practice Dharma, no matter how profound the Dharma is, it seems that it is useless...those monsters and monsters will not sit down and listen to you reason with them.
Not to mention those monsters and monsters, what about these few of my disciples?
Just saying that this Wukong, if he didn't have both Dharma and magic power, it would be impossible to make him surrender willingly.
Let’s not talk about anything else. I just want to talk about the past few times when Wukong committed crimes and hurt people. If the original “Master Tripitaka” would definitely use Buddhist teachings to teach, then according to the monkey’s temperament, how could he listen to his words?
If he is provoked to a violent attack, he doesn't know who the stick will be directed towards.
Come to think of it, the rumored tightening curse is the magic weapon passed down by Guanyin Bodhisattva from "Master Tripitaka" to restrain Wukong. But now that he is walking to the west by himself, naturally there is no need for this tightening curse.
And if it weren't for him... Bajie might not be the Bajie he is now; Wujing wouldn't be the Wujing he is now; the little white dragon might also have his horns cut off, the dragon beads taken away, and become a white horse to carry Tang Monk on his back. Let’s seek scriptures from the West...
————
Time passed slowly, and the master and apprentice practiced independently without disturbing each other.
It wasn't until it was lighted up the next day that Bajie woke up first and packed up some toiletries on his own. After cleaning them, he went to the kitchen to prepare. While the Wuzhuangguan guy had everything ready, he started to eat A hearty lunch.
If nothing else happens, he will be walking in the mountains in the next few days, and I am afraid it will be difficult to find a home. Even if he finds a home, if he is not from a wealthy family, he will not be able to withstand his appetite.
As soon as Bajie made a move, the other masters and disciples also stopped their teachings. After getting up to wash up and tidy up, the three disciples were waiting to eat.
Master Fahai went alone to find the two fairy boys Qingfeng and Mingyue.
The so-called person who becomes an immortal never sleeps when he is full of energy... Qingfeng and Mingyue have been practicing with Immortal Zhenyuan for thousands of years, so becoming an immortal is naturally a no-brainer. If they don't even have this qualification, they probably won't be accepted by Immortal Zhenyuan.
Although Mingyue's method sounds very effective, the two of them did not complete the errands ordered by the master. It would be a lie to say that they are not worried.
This night was like sitting on pins and needles, with no peace at all.
The two of them wished that their master would come back in the middle of the night, so that they could just give them a happy ending and save themselves from such mental torture.
Hearing footsteps outside, the two people who couldn't sit still quickly stood up. When they saw it was Master Sanzang, they hurried out to greet him. The bright moon was a little better, but the breeze was a little sluggish.
"Why doesn't the Master take more rest?" Mingyue looked at the still foggy sky and asked curiously, "Is the Master about to leave for the west now?"
"My master and his disciples always practice when the moon rises, and when the sun rises they head west... Yesterday, I caused a lot of inconvenience to the two fairy boys by disturbing them all night. It was a discourtesy of the poor monks and masters." As long as the person he is facing is not the perpetrator. Monsters and ghosts, Fa Hai's self-cultivation cannot find any fault. Even if he meets monsters... he will greet them with a smile first.
Qingfeng and Mingyue looked even more ashamed when they heard this.
Mingyue simply came to apologize: "My master told me and I to entertain the Master well, but we never thought that we would almost cause an unpleasant incident because of two ginseng berries... I'm glad that the Master didn't blame me and my senior brother for being reckless. Do you want the Master to apologize?"
"That's right, that's right. It's time for the two of us to apologize to the Master." Qingfeng also quickly handed over.
"It's not an important matter at all." Fahai said with a smile: "If my master asks, just tell the truth, just say that the poor monk is stubborn and that's why he didn't eat the ginseng fruit... I just learned that some disciples 'unauthorized' last night 'I advocate that the ginseng fruit be returned to Fairy Tong..."
Mingyue waved her hand and said: "Master, don't worry. Since the Master and the Taoist brothers are humble to each other and refuse to eat it, we are not greedy people... After the Third Prince and Brother Zhu returned the ginseng fruit yesterday, my senior brother and I Enshrine them in front of the 'Heaven and Earth' tablet in the main hall, one to worship the sky and one to respect the earth, which is exactly what they are for."
"Amitabha." Fahai recited the Buddha's name and said in his heart: He is indeed a disciple of the great Taoist family!
Both sides admired each other, and the more they looked at each other, the more they liked each other.
"Bajie made some breakfast. If the two fairy boys don't mind it, how about eating some together?" Fa Hai invited them both.
"How dare you disobey your orders!"
The two of them thanked him.
On the way, Fahai asked again: "I don't know when the master will come back. It's really a pity that I don't have a chance to see him this time."
"Master didn't say a date... If Master is interested, he might as well stay in the temple for a few days. It won't be too late to wait until Master comes back to see him before leaving." Qingfeng said smoothly.
