In fact, when the two of them made this decision, it was an impulsive decision without rational consideration.
When I saw the old mother's appearance in Yalongshan Cave, how could they, two sons, remain indifferent?
I also heard from my old mother that only by eating highly tonic things like Tang Monk’s meat can I regain my life. The two brothers stood in front of their mother and patted their chests, promising that they would bring Tang Monk's meat to honor their mother.
Afraid that the fight would affect the old mother, they set up a cave in Pingding Mountain in front of Yalong Mountain, put up demon flags, and gathered the surrounding little demons, who numbered five to six hundred people.
Just in case, the two of them even left Laojun's golden rope to my mother. Even gods can't escape the restraints of this treasure... It's not like the gourd, which is quite troublesome to use.
But this matter...can't bear to be considered carefully.
While the two of them "settled down" in Pingdingshan and waited for Tang Sanzang's master and apprentice to come to visit, their emotions gradually calmed down...it was inevitable that some regrets would arise in their hearts.
It's not that they are unfilial, it's just that... Tang Sanzang's master and disciple were so powerful that they boasted about them all the time, but how confident they were, in fact, the two brothers didn't have much confidence.
If it weren't for the power of Lao Jun's magic weapon, they wouldn't know how to pretend.
This day.
"Brother." Silver Horn King Xiaosheng said to his eldest brother: "The master and apprentice Tang Monk are not easy to mess with. I think... we might as well go to heaven and beg Laojun and ask him to give us a gift for the sake of our many years of service. The next life-saving pill.”
King Jinjiao thought for a while and said: "It's a good idea, but... you and I know all the elixirs in the elixir room of Tushita Palace. Where is the life-saving elixir? Master said he would not go back for three days. , it takes at least seven or forty-nine days to refine a furnace of life-saving elixir, one day in the sky, one year on the earth... Look at my mother’s frail body, how many years do she still have to live?”
"Alas -" King Yinjiao also sighed, "I am also unfilial. I enjoy the blessings in the heavenly palace all day long, but I don't know that my mother is suffering in the mortal world..."
"For the current plan, I am afraid that the only way to save my mother's life is to eat Tang Monk's meat." King Jinjiao said solemnly: "Calculate the time, Tang Monk and his disciples should be near our Pingding Mountain..."
King Yinjiao said: "Brother, brother, I have been bored in the mountains for a long time... so I personally took the little monsters to patrol the mountains. First, I went to find out where Tang Sanzang had gone, and secondly, I wanted to see if I could hunt. Get some blood food."
"If you meet someone, remember to leave him alive and send them to your mother."
"know."
The nine-tailed old fox needs to suck human blood and transfer human essence to maintain her current life.
...
It is said that the great sage and the little white dragon entered the mountain.
"What a steep mountain." The Great Sage couldn't help but sigh and said: "This mountain is filled with evil spirit. Fortunately, you didn't do anything without permission. If you did it rashly, I'm afraid I'd get you in."
The two brothers looked at the mountain.
I saw towering mountains and sharp peaks.
The momentum of the mountain peak reaches straight into the sky, but it is like a ladder to the sky. The gorges are deep and poor, and there are cuts and pits everywhere blocking the road.
If you take a closer look, you will see that there seems to be an anaconda turning over under the deep stream surrounding the bay; a forest tiger can be seen cutting its tail on the edge of the solitary steep cliff.
But how could these difficulties keep the Great Sage and the Little White Dragon away? The two of them walked freely through the mountains as if they were walking on flat ground. When they saw the little demon patrolling the mountain, they changed and lurked... After a while, they bypassed it. After passing numerous sentries, we arrived at the entrance of Lotus Cave.
"If you look at this mountain roughly, it can be more than 600 miles away." The Great Sage said to Xiao Bailong: "Our master and disciple have thought about it, it's quite simple... It's just that according to the master's temperament, if we don't save this group of goblins, , I’m afraid I can’t give up.”
"You said there are two powerful demons in the Lotus Cave..." The Great Sage touched the little white dragon's arm with his shoulder and said: "You still turn into a white snake and enter. I turn into dust and fall on you. Let's enter the cave. After carefully examining him, he found out that if he was a man-eating monster, he called the master to come and exterminate the monster together..."
What a coincidence.
The Great Sage and Little White Dragon came to the cave on a detour, just in the wrong direction from King Silver Horn who was out patrolling the mountains.
...
Here, Bajie saw his senior brother and his junior brother exploring the way. He touched his empty belly and said to his master: "Master, it's almost noon, why not take advantage of the opportunity between senior brother and Xiao Bailong?" Tanshan, disciples, let’s bury the pot and make rice... It’s time to eat when they come back. This fills their stomachs and will give them strength even if the demon comes down in a while, right?”
Come and try it quickly. 】
"Good." In this regard, Fahai always respects Bajie's advice.
Bajie looked around and said: "Master, the place where we rest is full of stones. It is easy to build a stove, but there is less dry firewood... I will go into the mountain to find some. Please wait a moment." "
"Bajie...be careful."
"Alas." Bajie nodded repeatedly. Bajie, who originally went empty-handed, picked up the nail rake and said with a smile: "Master, this disciple is different from the past. The senior brother said that with this disciple's skill, he is better than those people." The generals of the Heavenly Court are all very powerful...even if they encounter some little monsters, even a rake will save them."
Fahai still didn't feel reassured about him, so he said to Sha Wujing who was standing beside him: "Wujing, you're going to come too, to take care of him."
"Yes, Master." Wu Jing stood up, first saluted to the Master, and then walked up to the second senior brother with a demon-suppressing staff. A wisp of obsession floated from his chest and said with a smile: "Second Senior Brother ,Let's go."
In fact, Bajie also had a guilty conscience, he was just being tough.
Now that Junior Brother Sha is going with him, he feels confident.
Maybe other people don't know the details of Junior Brother Sha, but as a senior brother, Bajie naturally knows it best... Not to mention that he is extremely powerful, and he doesn't suffer from fatigue or pain. Bajie fought with him once. Obviously the strength of the two people is not far apart, but I just can't beat him at all.
Even Xiao Bailong could barely hold down Junior Brother Sha, and it would be extremely difficult to defeat him.
Only those like Master and Senior Brother, who are far stronger than Junior Brother Sha, can easily crush him, otherwise... it will be like being dragged into the quagmire by him, draining his strength bit by bit, and finally being submerged. Among them, he died of suffocation.
Later, Bajie would rather spar with his senior brother than compete with his junior brother Sha. After all, he was thick-skinned and could withstand beatings. Taking a few sticks from his senior brother would help him temper his physical body, and he would soon become an Arhat's golden body, or maybe It's a Vajra body or something.
The two brothers were very straightforward and left their master behind without any worry at all.
Unexpectedly, the scene in front of him was clearly seen by King Silver Horn who was out hunting.
Because their brothers "settled" in Pingding Mountain and recruited five to six hundred little monsters, they had already hunted all the easy-to-hunt prey in the mountains during this period. In addition, the Silver Horn King was patrolling the mountain to the east, and he happened to land halfway up the mountain, which was just the right place for their master and disciple to stay.
King Yinjiao didn't seem to believe that his luck would be so good. He pointed in the direction of Master Tripitaka from a distance and asked the little monsters around him: "Look, there is a monk over there, is it Tang Monk?" ?”
Although he asked a question, he took out a painting from his arms. This was the handwriting of his elder brother, and what was painted in it was the appearance of the five masters and disciples of Tang Monk.
Now that the decision was made that day, King Golden Horn went to the Holy Buddha Palace in Wanzi Mountain in person, and carved out the physical features of the five masters and disciples according to the sculptures, and then asked the little demons in the temple for some details. , this is the success.
After being identified by the little demon at the Holy Buddha's Palace, he came back after knowing that what he had drawn was correct.
The Golden Horn King had already memorized the appearance and posture of the five masters and disciples, so this picture naturally fell into the hands of the Silver Horn King.
After some comparisons, King Yinjiao confirmed that the two who had just left were Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing... and the one left alone was Tang Sanzang!
"Second King, this opportunity is rare!" A little demon admonished from the side: "Second King, seeing that this monk is alone, I deserve this Tang Monk meat!"
"Peace!" King Yinjiao was still quite cautious. He said solemnly: "Regardless of why Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing left, have you ever seen Sun Wukong and Ao Lie?"
The little demons looked at each other in confusion. If they could notice this, their minds would be filled with a hundred ways to eat Tang Monk's meat...
"You guys, go find out the details of Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha, and act accordingly."
King Silver Horn pointed at a dozen little demons.
"yes."
The little demons hurried down the mountain and headed straight into the forest.
Not long after, a little demon came back and said, "Second Master, I have found out clearly that Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing went into the forest to collect some dry firewood to light a fire for cooking."
"Make a fire to cook?"
King Yinjiao was a little surprised when he heard this, and said curiously: "It's strange, this monk travels in the three realms, doesn't he always beg for alms... He walks all the way, and sees fate wherever he goes. They are so interesting that they even prepare their own cooking pots. .”
The little demon thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, maybe there are few people walking along this way to the west, and most of the mountain roads are full of demons... If they seek alms from the demon mansion, wouldn't they fall into a trap?"
"Hehehehe——" King Silver Horn chuckled secretly after hearing this, and said, "What's the difference between them and themselves falling into a trap this time?"
After all, it was a rare opportunity. King Silver Horn did not check the location of Sun Wukong and Little White Dragon, and directly told the little demon under him: "Little ones!"
"exist!"
"Capture Tang Monk!"
King Silver Horn waved his hand, and the little demons rushed down the mountain with howls, holding weapons each, and rushed towards Tang Sanzang.
But King Silver Horn himself did not follow him out immediately. He just hid in the dark and watched, not for other reasons, but simply to guard against the missing Sun Wukong.
When the little demons who were watching Bajie and Sha Wujing in the mountains heard the noise, they all jumped out, preparing to attack Bajie and Sha Wujing to delay their return for rescue.
Bajie and Wu Jing naturally heard the noise outside, but they were not worried about their master and even wanted to laugh a little. Where is the demon who is so clever that he immediately takes action to capture the master when he is alone?
