Although it was their first meeting, the Great Sage thought that the Grand Master of the West Liang Kingdom was not a good person.
There were half truths and half lies in her words, no real feelings at all. She was frightened away just now. It was because the Great Sage did not expect that she would come out like this. Instead, he almost got himself burned.
Now that we have entered the palace all the way, we are naturally a little wary of the Grand Master.
When he entered the palace, he also saw the vision that his master saw. The sight of the precious light dispersing the demonic clouds was invisible to mortals... but it could not be hidden from the eyes of their master and disciples.
The Great Sage saw the gleam in his master's eyes and saw his footsteps that were about to turn towards the gathering of demonic clouds. He also paused and asked the master: "I dare to ask the master, is there any strange person when the queen ascends the throne today?" A foreigner comes to offer a gift?"
"Strange people and strangers?" The Grand Master glanced at the masters and disciples, as if to say: Aren't you the strange people and strangers?
"Alas -" the Grand Master suddenly said incredulously, "I had forgotten that when the holy monk came to pay homage to our Lord just now, a woman who claimed to be a woman from the mountains came to the palace and presented a pipa. The queen also praised her pipa music for being captivating and intoxicating. Just when His Majesty was about to ask her to play another piece, the holy monk came..."
"Then Pipa Girl stayed in the palace?"
The grand master recalled the scene at that time, and his face gradually became solemn: "The holy monk was coming, and your majesty asked her to step aside for the time being... and then she was nowhere to be seen... Huang Menguan..."
"Grand Master." Huangmenguan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hands in greeting.
The Grand Master asked: "Have you ever seen the Pipa Girl leave the palace?"
"Never seen."
"This..." Taishi frowned and said to Fa Hai and others: "The holy monk laughed. It was my first time to see that pipa girl, but I don't know who introduced her... Why did the holy monk ask? Is he an old acquaintance of her?"
The Grand Master has seen the appearance of his pipa girl. In terms of appearance alone, she is almost as good as Her Majesty the Queen. However, compared to the Queen's dignified and luxurious appearance, this girl is more charming and gorgeous... Could it be that this great monk...
The Grand Master kept his mind on his thoughts and only looked at Master Tripitaka's answer. How could such friendship with the Queen be wasted because of this?
The grand master was testing Fahai, but he didn't know that Fahai was also baiting him. Looking at the few people on the left and right, Fahai said softly: "The poor monk saw that a demonic cloud entered the palace today, gathering demonic energy... That's why If you ask this question, if what the Grand Master said is true, then Pipa Girl is most likely the demon who entered the palace."
"Hiss——" The Grand Master suddenly became worried when he heard this. Seeing that the guards around him were also a little surprised, he stepped forward and pressed Master Tripitaka one step closer, saying: "Is this what the holy monk really said true?"
"My master is a virtuous eminent monk. He has a pair of Dharma eyes that look up into the heavens and down into the underworld. How can a mere monster who enters the palace to cause trouble hide it from my master's eyes?" The Great Sage immediately understood what the master wanted to do. What, while making a name for the master, he walked to the grand master, separated her from the master, and whispered: "Don't make any noise about this beforehand. The demon has not seen any movement for a long time after entering the palace. Maybe he has other plans to prevent the snake from being alerted." , asking her to hurt innocent people."
"Amitabha." Fahai paid a Buddha salute to the Grand Master and said, "The poor monk came to the palace this time just to subdue the demon... I would also like to ask the Grand Master to do it for you."
"This matter is of great importance. I will report it to Your Majesty first..."
The grand master called the chief of guard and said, "Did you hear what the holy monk just said? Don't spread the evil things before the matter is settled."
"yes."
The Grand Master asked Huang Menguan and his captain of the bodyguard to lead Master Tripitaka and his entourage to the Royal Garden Palace.
He hurriedly walked to the imperial study room.
Wukong didn't need to be assigned by the master, he had already separated his incarnation, and then used the art of transformation to turn into a speck of dust and fall on the shoulder of the grand master——
Fahai looked at the direction in which the Taishi was walking, which was exactly where the Yaoyun and Baoguang had collided. He already had some guesses in his mind and was just waiting for Wukong to come and retaliate.
He came a step too late, the magic of concealing the demon was quite extraordinary.
There was no trace of this demon when he entered the palace for the first time... This time he used Buddhist Dharma to operate his Dharma Eyes and looked in the direction where the demon cloud and the precious light collided, but he only saw the queen sleeping soundly on the couch... her waist The lotus purse was still shining brightly, so we knew that the demon came into the palace to harm the queen, but it failed to succeed, and immediately retreated after missing the blow.
Therefore, Fahai never traced her whereabouts.
This time, he deliberately informed the Imperial Master of the matter, mainly to make them more vigilant. He also secretly sent Wukong to accompany him... and also to test whether the Imperial Master had something to do with the demon.
If not, everyone will be happy; if there is...it will kill two birds with one stone.
In the inner room of the royal study, the queen fell into a dream, and she didn't know what she was dreaming about. She always had a shy smile on her face, and there were hidden words in her mouth. If you analyze it carefully, it seems that the "royal brother" is repeated in a cycle.
It was also because she didn't want to wake up from her sweet dream that she didn't know that there was a Banshee King who just came to assassinate her. If it weren't for the national treasure at her waist and the imperial energy of Ziwei she contained to protect her, I'm afraid that this time It has been poisoned.
The queen was sleeping deeply, and she was dreaming that she and her royal brother were holding hands tightly, leaning against each other, and talking to each other, when she stepped on—
Suddenly there was the sound of horse hoofbeats, and a black-armored cavalryman rushed in, holding a long sword and shouting loudly: "Tang Sanzang, you dare to return to secular life and marry a wife, which is against my will——"
The Queen was sweating profusely and had a look of panic on her face. Just when she was about to rush forward to make a difference, she saw her brother Yu holding her shoulders and said: "Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
The sound is getting louder and clearer——
"oops!"
The queen woke up from her dream and suddenly sat up, her eyes still a little distracted. Just when her mind was still uncertain, she saw the grand master holding her shoulders and calling "Your Majesty", and she breathed a sigh of relief——
"Your Majesty, did you have a frightening dream?" The grand master's eyes were full of worry. He held the queen in his arms and stroked her back... Why did he feel strange when he didn't see your majesty? Is it really a demon?
"Huh——" The queen calmed down, held the Grand Master's hand, and said: "Grand Master, I am no longer in the way. I can arrange for Yu Di's master... ahem... I can arrange for Yu Di's master and apprentice. alright?"
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
"But what happened?" The Queen's heart trembled when she saw the expression on the Grand Master's face. Could it be that her dream has come true?
The Grand Master stood up first, and after seeing no one outside the door or window, he replied to the Queen: "Your Majesty, when I led Master Sanzang into the palace, Master Sanzang said that he saw a demonic cloud entering the palace today, and he was afraid that some demon wanted to attack him. Your Majesty is in trouble...I was invited to the palace this time, specifically to slay the demon."
After listening to the words of the Grand Master, the Queen showed no fear for a moment and said: "My Imperial Disciple is an eminent monk appointed by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He has profound Buddhist teachings... Do you know the origin of that demon?"
"Master Sanzang said that it is most likely the pipa girl who performed the music." The grand master looked solemn, "If what Master Sanzang said is true, your majesty should be careful... When the pipa girl entered the palace, even I couldn't After discovering her real background, I am afraid that her path is not shallow. Thinking about it now, His Majesty praised her for her soul-stirring and intoxicating music...perhaps it is not the right path, but the art of bewitching the mind. Fortunately, Master Sanzang was there at that time. After entering the palace to see her, I never asked her to perform in the main hall..."
"Shi Caichen also asked Huangmen Guan, but he didn't see the pipa girl leaving the palace. She must be hiding somewhere in the palace at this moment." Seeing the national treasure on the queen's waist, the Grand Master also took a breath and said, "There is this treasure. , that demon can’t get close to His Majesty easily.”
"This treasure can only protect me. How can I be the only one in the palace?" The Queen looked at the Grand Master and said, "Do you think I have a way to get rid of demons?"
"This... Master Tripitaka has never explained this to me in detail."
"Excuse me, Grand Master... I'd better go and ask for advice in person."
