Although the Great Sage vented his anger in Pingdingshan the previous time, the fight was not very smooth.
The first time I fought against the two demon kings of gold and silver, I ended up with a "defeat"; the second time I went to conquer the Dragon-pressing Immortal, I thought he was a more powerful one, but who would have thought that he would know that except for the gold The rope is difficult to tie, and other abilities are also very ordinary... He fights the Golden Horn King again, but uses a magic weapon to collect him, making the Great Sage feel that the victory is not possible.
On the contrary, later on the road, he listened to Bajie talking about the scene when his master surrendered King Silver Horn, which made him feel very itchy. Just thinking about the scene of holding a mountain with one hand made his heart agitate, and he wished he could relive it on the spot.
The Great Sacred Heart said: I don’t know how many skills Master still has hidden. I was afraid that when Master rescued me from the trouble at the foot of Five Elements Mountain, if I hadn’t said it first that I could break free, I would have been able to witness the scene of Master holding up the mountain with great strength.
"This demon has pretended to be the leader of the Wuji Kingdom for three years without leaking any flaws. It shows that he is good at changing." Fahai said with a smile: "I am asking you to make great achievements with your sharp eyes, don't let him get away."
The great sage was overjoyed to receive the master's promise, and he repeatedly bowed his hands to the master: "Thank you so much, master. If the demon is gone, the master will punish you as necessary, and the disciple will have no complaints."
Bajie joked at the side: "Senior Brother, don't say too much, be careful to make sure it comes true... Your mouth has always been good but bad."
"Go, go, go -" the Great Sage drove Bajie aside, thought for a moment, and said: "Master, you will deal with the prince tomorrow. Disciple and Xiao Bailong will go to the city first to inquire about the details of the evil way. , and let’s find out how much trouble he has done over the years by relying on his status as the country’s leader.”
"That's how it should be."
After a while, the east turned white.
It is the nod of the head that summons the Fuso Sun, and the jet of breath blows away the stars.
The great sage first went to find the abbot, the master of the temple, and asked him to discipline the monks of the temple and not to do anything without orders. He also asked him to call the prince to come to see the holy monk alone and not to follow him if he saw the prince coming to offer incense. bring.
Now the abbot, the head of the hospital, regards Master Tripitaka as the true Buddha, and he regards the words of the holy monk as the decree of the law, and immediately carries out the instructions.
As for the fact that the prince would come to offer incense today, how did the holy monk know... He was not surprised at all. After all, he was the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty whom the Buddha personally "welcome". Isn't such a trivial matter a matter of fate?
After the Great Sage finished his instructions, he and Xiao Bailong left Baolin Temple and went straight to the capital of Wuji Kingdom.
The two junior brothers said goodbye to their master, and flew into the sky on clouds and mist. The great sage opened his fiery eyes and looked to the west. He saw a city. He stretched out his hand and pointed, "Junior brother, look... isn't that a city?"
The city was only forty miles away from the mountain, and they could see it from a height. The Great Sage looked at it carefully for a while, and then said to Xiao Bailong: "The king is right. The sky above this city is filled with strange fog, gloomy clouds, and evil winds and resentments." One after another...it must be the devil."
Xiao Bailong also learned some Qi-gazing techniques from his master. In addition, he has the blood of a true dragon, so he can sense the dragon's energy. He is especially good at observing the fate of the country. At this moment, he also showed off in front of his senior brother: "If the true king ascends to the throne, The throne has its own auspicious five-color cloud; but now the demonic way invades the dragon throne, and the rising black energy locks the golden gate... Senior brother, when it comes to the little prince, you can faintly see the image of a king, and he also shows the emperor's dignity. "
It was also a coincidence that they came out and met the Prince of the Wuji Kingdom on his way out. He was riding towards the Baolin Temple. He was followed by many forbidden troops. It was unknown whether they were protecting his life or monitoring his whereabouts.
The Great Sage and Little White Dragon fell directly into the capital without alerting them.
I just walked around casually, but I also saw that the people were richer than Baoxiang. I asked a little bit about it. No matter in the past or now, when the people mentioned the king, they always spoke highly of him.
There are no exorbitant taxes or tyranny... Instead, the country is peaceful and clear.
He was afraid that the people had been deceived by demons, so he and the little white dragon soldiers separated. The little white dragon continued to inquire about the king's reputation among the people, while the great sage turned into a wisp of blue smoke and escaped into the palace to see the emperor. Sitting in front of the eucalyptus, he was writing hard, giving personal instructions for each memorial. From time to time, he would call hundreds of officials to ask questions about government affairs. Even though the great sage was not familiar with government affairs, he could still tell that he handled various affairs in a very orderly manner... He was clearly a diligent person. Zheng Mingjun.
"Strange thing." When the great sage saw this, he didn't know why this evil demon was so powerful. Why did Li Li replace Tao Zong... was it just to govern the country well?
When the Great Sage saw this, he did not act rashly. He knew in his heart that there was something fishy about this matter, and it was probably up to the Master to make the final decision.
This demonic path, Quanzhen, seems to be a lion demon, but inside it secretly embodies the light of Buddha. If it is not kept intact, which Bodhisattva's sect mounts the spiritual pet and comes to earth to block the way...
However, it is really rare for a demon to act like this. Although the country's leader suffered from floods for three years, not only did the state affairs not fall behind, the country's power also increased a lot.
The Great Sage went to the harem, hoping to find evidence of the evil cholera palace, and wait until he surrendered to him, so that he could be ruthless... But after eavesdropping, all he heard was that of a harem. Complaints, it turns out that the king who was transformed by the demon has been diligent and caring for the people for three years. Not to mention the cholera concubines, he has never been to the harem... Therefore, the concubines of the three palaces and six courtyards have no complaints at all. We were young, but we didn’t dare to have an attack, so we could only cry to each other in private.
The entire harem looks like a cold palace.
Such a situation made even the great sage a little confused. He could only sigh secretly: Everyone has his own ambitions.
Maybe...this demon transformed into a king and waited here to wait for the master to come. When the customs clearance document was changed, he took the opportunity to plot and eat Tang Monk's meat?
The Great Sage secretly became aware and prepared to find an opportunity to explore the tone of this evil way.
Here the Great Sage and Little White Dragon act independently.
Over there, the prince had already entered the Baolin Temple. Because the guards of the imperial army were wearing swords and guns, they were afraid that their murderous spirit would conflict with the purity of the Buddhist sect, so they were left outside the gate by the prince, and only led one of the chamberlains into the temple.
The abbot showed up to receive him and led the prince into the Mahavira Hall to worship Buddha and pray for blessings.
"Abbott, why are you alone here today and no monks in the temple?" After the prince worshiped the Buddha and burned incense, he asked the abbot, the master of the courtyard.
"Amitabha." The abbot, the master of the monastery, received the instruction from the great sage and naturally knew how to respond. He quickly replied: "Your Majesty the Prince doesn't know that a virtuous and eminent monk came to our temple. Yesterday, his disciples gave a Dharma performance to all of us. I have an understanding. Today, the eminent monk will open an altar to preach about Buddhism. The monks are currently burning incense, bathing, and purifying their hearts. Therefore, they have not come to see you. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
The prince was actually a kind man. He knew that for these monks, the Dharma was as great as heaven, so he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter...but where is this great virtuous monk? Is it possible for me to meet him by chance?"
"It can be seen, it can be seen." The abbot of the courtyard whispered: "This eminent monk is the imperial disciple of the King of Tang Dynasty in the East, who was specially sent to the West to obtain scriptures and offer treasures... He sent his disciples to me this morning to say that today the prince is going to The fragrance should be used as a recommendation."
"Did he know that I was coming?" The prince looked at the master of the courtyard, "Didn't you leak the news first?"
"Your Highness... How dare a poor monk speak nonsense in front of the golden body of Buddha... Amitabha!"
"Hahahaha——" Seeing him like this, the prince smiled and said, "It's Gu who made a mistake. Since we are destined, please take Gu to meet this eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty."
"Your Highness, please follow me." The abbot, the master of the courtyard, led the way. His Royal Highness the Prince stood up, and when he saw the chamberlain hurrying to follow... the abbot, the master of the courtyard, stopped, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said: "My companion, please stay. The eminent monk only sees His Highness the Crown Prince."
The prince said smoothly: "Just wait here."
After saying that, he and the abbot, the master of the courtyard, turned into the corridor and entered a Zen room.
The waiter looked a little confused. He stopped and waited for a moment. When he was about to take a look and follow him, he saw a strong and ferocious-looking monk guarding outside the meditation room. He did not dare to approach.
He also saw the abbot, the master of the courtyard, looking respectful when he opened the door and exited, which made him even more anxious. The king asked him to keep an eye on the prince's every move, but now something like this happened. But...if you just meet a monk from the Tang Dynasty, nothing will happen, right?
After the prince entered the house, he saw the eminent monk "sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai". He just closed his eyes and chanted Buddha's name. He didn't even look at him. He deliberately asked: "You monk is so arrogant. Why don't you come to pick up Gu Luan when he arrives at the temple?" That’s it, now that I’m walking in front of you, you still ignore me...are you not afraid of punishing you for being disrespectful?”
Fahai slowly opened his eyes and saw that the young prince was saying some words of loyalty. He only smiled and said: "The poor monk Dongtu Tang Dynasty has come to Tang Sanzang. Your Highness, please take a seat."
The prince saw that the monk was calm and confident, and did not show any panic in the face of his own questioning. Instead of participating in the driving, he invited himself to take a seat. He found it interesting. After he took his seat, he asked: "I heard that you are going to the West to seek scriptures." It's a treasure offering... What treasures do you have in Dongtu?"
"Hehehe." Fahai smiled, took off the Buddhist beads from his hand, and said, "Your Highness, how about taking a look at this treasure?"
His Royal Highness the Prince opened his eyes and suddenly felt happy: "When you go to Lingshan to offer Buddhist beads...isn't it just a simple ax? Looking at it alone, it's not that good...You should find some treasures that Buddhism has never had to offer, so that you can see your intentions." .”
Fahai nodded and thought to himself that His Highness the Prince had a fair temperament, was somewhat intelligent, and was a malleable talent. His father was right, and he could be entrusted with important matters.
It turned out that it was Fahai who gave him a little test. After all, it was the demon pretending to be his father. If he was reckless and impulsive, how could he succeed after hearing such information?
Fahai smiled again and took out the jade guide entrusted by his father, placed it in front of him and said, "Your Highness, how do you like this?"
"oops!"
His Royal Highness the Prince screamed in surprise, his expression changed slightly, his eyes were alert, but he did not attack immediately, he just asked in a deep voice: "Where did you get this thing?"
"Oh." Fahai asked knowingly, "Does Your Highness recognize this object?"
"This belongs to my family, how could you not recognize it?" His Royal Highness squinted his eyes and looked carefully at Master Tripitaka, not knowing what he was looking at.
