Bajie and the great sage in mid-air couldn't help laughing when they heard the leopard spirit's words. Bajie even had a look of disdain on his face, "How about you being a monster in the ravines? I haven’t seen any monsters in the countryside than that of Langlang Mountain... But you are really very thoughtful, that little cat boy... I have been born for more than five hundred years, and now I am following my master all the way to the west. You are still the first one. The goblin who provoked me to eat the master by calling me a pig."
"Seeing that your skin is beautiful, I will give you a happy one today. I will take a complete skin from your grandfather pig and make a flower-skin cloak for Master!"
As for whether Master would allow them to do such "cruel" things, Bajie felt that there shouldn't be any big problem. They all knew exactly where the tiger skin skirt around Brother Monkey's waist came from... Even a little envious.
Except for the eldest brother, none of them have such treatment.
Bajie thought to himself: If I take this piece of fur back home, maybe the master will sew me some clothes if he is happy.
"scare!"
Bajie's words and the rake hitting his back made King Nanshan's vision darken.
When he regained consciousness, the demon soul left his body and was held in the hands of a Rakshasa... It was Sha Wujing!
Immediately afterwards, I saw that there were still many souls of little demons in the cave floating around, some were confused, some were bowing their heads and begging for mercy, and they were all in a state of embarrassment.
Before he could react, he heard a rich Buddhist sound coming from Sha Wujing, and he didn't see him opening his mouth. The sound seemed to come from his abdomen, turning into golden light to kill all the demon souls like them. pack.
ah--
Although they were illuminated by the Buddha's light, these demon souls did not feel half of the compassion of the Buddha's teachings to save all living beings. Especially the King of Nanshan, at this moment, it was as if his body was burning with flames and his heart was in pain.
It was a thousand times more painful than when he was beaten to death by Zhu Bajie.
Who said everything is over after death?
It was also Xiao Bailong and Wu Jing who subdued all the little monsters on the mountain. When they came down the mountain with the young couple, they heard the sound and happened to see the second senior brother beating the Nanshan King on the head with the back of a nail. After Huahua, Wu Jing conveniently collected the soul of the King of Nanshan, and together with the demon soldiers who were beaten to death above and in the valley who were beaten to death by the second senior brother, they practiced salvation together.
Those who deserve to be ashes will go to hell.
Wu Jing, like his master, accepted the karma after freeing himself from demons and endured it himself.
After Junior Brother Sha saved the demon, Xiao Bailong came close to the Second Senior Brother. He looked at the Second Senior Brother who nailed the palladium in his hand and turned it into a skinning knife. He asked in a low voice: "Second Senior Brother, are you going to... "
The young couple behind Xiao Bailong saw this scene, and their hearts trembled with fear... Didn't they say that you are disciples of the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty?
Why so cruel?
Look at the knife-wielding pig demon in front of you, as well as the corpses all over the ground... Even the King of Nanshan was beaten to death by him with a rake... Now he is still holding a skinning knife, what is he doing?
The man held his breath and blocked his wife behind him... Although his arms were trembling and he was chatting his teeth and couldn't say a word, everyone could see his courage and determination.
The great sage above the cloud nodded secretly when he saw it, and said in his heart: "He is indeed a real man."
Bajie deliberately swung his knife and waved it a few times in mid-air... Seeing that the man became more and more unafraid, he stopped scaring him and revealed his intention to Xiao Bailong.
Then he walked up to the original form of the Nanshan King and prepared to strike.
"Second senior brother..." Xiao Bailong stretched out his hand and pressed the second senior brother, and whispered: "The tiger skin skirt of the senior brother is a wild tiger that was killed in the mountains... He has no intelligence. After all, the king of Nanshan Cultivated into human form..."
The knife in Bajie's hand paused for a moment, then he flicked it and stuck it into the ground. He was a little unhappy, but he turned to the demon soul of King Nanshan who was being saved by the light of Buddha and said, "Humph, I'll spare you a life."
Bajie is a person who listens to advice.
In addition, he didn't think clearly about it just now. He only focused on the beautiful fur of the Nanshan King, but completely forgot about this part.
As for the wild beasts in the mountains, if he occasionally saw them eating people, Master would just beat them to death, not like those demons, who would even have to save their souls.
Sometimes the meat of these beasts is also distributed to the surrounding people for consumption.
But for those fairies who have cultivated human form... there is no such link.
"Second senior brother..." Xiao Bailong said again: "On the king's seat in the demon cave, there is a complete piece of spotted fur..."
This sentence was a complete turn of events. Bajie said: "Quick, lead the way from the front!"
Seeing Xiao Bailong's hesitation, he knew he was worried about the young couple, so he looked at the clouds and said, "Brother Monkey, stop hiding..."
The great sage lowered his head from the clouds and landed directly in front of the young couple.
I had also seen the leopard head of King Nanshan before, and now I have seen Bajie's pig head. Now I don't feel scared when I look at the image of the great sage like a furry thunder god.
"This is my senior brother." Xiao Bailong introduced the two of them and said: "As long as my senior brother is here, everything will be safe. He will come back when the two of us go, and then we will go down the mountain together..."
"Hey, thank you so much, Immortal."
This has been said before. This man knew that his mother was being taken care of by their master, Master Tripitaka, so although he was a little impatient, he could still wait.
The Great Sage looked at the two of them for a moment, then stretched out his hand to pinch the man's bones, then looked at the woman's spiritual roots with his fiery eyes, and said in his heart: "No wonder he was found by the King of Nanshan, it turns out that he is also A very spiritual person..."
After Xiao Bailong and Bajie left, the Great Sage jumped to a rock not far away and sat down cross-legged. He waved to them and said with a smile: "You two should get closer."
The two of them didn't know what this "eldest brother" was up to, but they didn't dare to go against it at all, relying on each other and walked a few steps towards the great sage.
"You two have already seen this kind of world of monsters..." The Great Sage looked like a fairy at this moment, and his voice was a bit ethereal. "It's so difficult and dangerous in this mountain, and there is still my mother at home... I can't think of my teacher." How will you live after you leave?"
The man was stunned for a moment, but the woman was so blessed that she stretched out her hand and pulled her husband to kneel on the ground, saying: "I and my husband are willing to worship under the immortal chief and learn how to protect themselves."
"Yes, yes." Although the man reacted slowly, he was not stupid. He quickly followed his wife and said, "Disciple, please accept the immortal and teach me the art of self-protection."
The Great Sage is not a harried person. Once he has made a decision, he will not procrastinate. Moreover, the couple are also quite smart, so it will not take much effort to teach them.
The ceremony of apprenticeship is simply kowtow.
"You two are just my registered disciples and have not entered my master's sect. You must know this... Therefore, there is no need for you to become a monk."
"Yes." The two of them agreed quickly.
"Although the skills I taught you are to give you immortality, they are not meant for you to bully the weak... If one day I find out that you two are doing evil by relying on the skills I taught you, I will personally take your lives, but Did you ever know?"
The two said in unison: "Disciple must always keep it in mind."
"Good." The Great Sage nodded, his face still serious: "If you succeed in practicing, I will not stop you from killing demons... But one thing must be clear, you cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately, because not all demons are evil. Bad ones, just like there are evil people among humans.”
The Great Sage does not ask them to treat humans and monsters equally, but when they meet some truly kind little monsters, it is enough that they can think of their own words and avoid hurting innocent people.
After all, they are human beings, and even if the master acts, he will always be on the side of the human race.
The Great Sage himself has no position. He is neither a human nor a demon, but an elf born and raised... Now he is traveling westward with his master, cultivating his true heart, and has gradually come to understand the word "justice".
He is a person who loves to fight against injustice by nature, and there is no room for sand in his eyes.
I acted recklessly in the past, but now I feel really ashamed when I think about it.
Fortunately, he was originally a naughty hozen, but now he has received the guidance of his master and is on a smooth road.
The great sage took two sticks, one was the same size as his ordinary golden cudgel, and the other was whittled into the shape of a woman's sword.
The stick was handed over to the man, and the sword was naturally held in the woman's hand.
A mental method of breathing and breathing, a set of stick skills and a set of sword skills were introduced into the world.
.....
Bajie followed Xiao Bailong all the way up the mountain.
Although it was a distance of twenty miles, the two of them flew there in the blink of an eye.
First, go up to the cliff and look down the cliff. Only then can you see where the cave is. It is hidden by cut peaks, jagged rocks, square ponds filled with water, and deep caves nestled against the mountain.
If it wasn't a demon cave, it would be great to be a fairy cave.
A group of little demons were going about their business when they saw the little white dragon and a big man with a pig face coming to the cave. They hurriedly came forward to pay their respects. The leopard spirit even said: "Little demons pay their respects to the White Dragon Bodhisattva!"
Bajie laughed out loud after hearing this and joked: "Well...Master hasn't become a Buddha yet, but you have become a Bodhisattva first."
Xiao Bailong has said it many times, but these goblins just don't listen... He has no way to force them not to call them this way. After several attempts to stop them to no avail, he just lets it go.
When Xiao Bailong heard the second senior brother making fun of him, he didn't care at all. Instead, he smiled and said: "Since they sincerely called me like this, they saw that what I did really lived up to Master's teachings... I think Master will be even more happy when he sees this." .”
Bajie paused for a while, nodded and said: "That's right...you are the big gift to Master...Old pig, I am still too small."
They are all fellow disciples, and no one can be said to be superior to the other. Moreover, Bajie always remembers that if Xiao Bailong hadn't insisted, he would actually be his senior brother... After all, he got started later than Xiao Bailong.
Seeing the opportunity, the leopard spirit stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what important business the two Bodhisattvas have come back to the cave? It's just a mission."
"Let's look for a piece of spotted fur on your king's chair."
"Yes, yes." The leopard spirit said quickly: "That fur was taken from a wild leopard in the mountains. When the king killed it, he also said, how dare a mere wild leopard have such fur? He will kill it. After taking off the floral fur, I put it on the chair."
When Bajie heard this, he immediately didn't want to move. He scratched his head and looked at Xiao Bailong, "I feel that this wild leopard is a bit pitiful... and it's too careless to just present it to Master like this... .”
Bajie didn't wait for Xiao Bailong to reply and looked at the leopard spirit in front of him.
The leopard spirit was immediately horrified and said: "Bodhisattva, spare your life! Bodhisattva, spare your life!"
Bajie glared at him and said, "I didn't plan to take your fur, but I wanted to ask you, what do you plan to do with this cave?"
The Leopard Spirit answered honestly: "We plan to move out the useful things inside, and the cave will be burned down."
"Burned? Where will you live if it's burned?"
"We are originally mountain spirits. Although we have transformed into human form, our habits are...where can we not make a nest?" Leopard Spirit said first, and then whispered to Bajie: "Besides, we just discussed something "Fan, prepare to build a temple in the mountains. I will become a serious practitioner from now on and will not be that goblin anymore."
Bajie's heart moved: "Isn't it going to build a temple for White Dragon Bodhisattva?"
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from you." The leopard spirit nodded repeatedly and said: "When we discussed it just now, we decided to build a Five Buddha Temple. All the true Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have a place to worship... Among them, there is naturally a temple for the White Dragon Bodhisattva."
To be honest, Bajie is not surprised by this.
Whenever they passed by, whether it was fairies or humans, they would start building temples to honor them after they left.
The most typical one is Baoxiang Kingdom. Not only does the Holy Buddha Hall in Baoxiangguo Temple enshrine the golden body of Master Tripitaka, but there is also the Holy Buddha Palace that was renovated from the Wave Moon Cave in Wanzi Mountain, and the Five Saints Temple is built inside. It was their five masters and apprentices.
Bajie stopped the leopard spirit and said, "Let's find some firewood and wild mushrooms."
...
A fire burned the demon cave, but Bajie returned empty-handed. The great sage didn't laugh at him, as if he had known the result.
Instead, Bajie himself joked: "Brother Monkey, do you think this is one of the eight sufferings in Buddhism?"
"Haha." The Great Sage laughed and said: "If Master knows that you use the word 'cannot' here, I will keep a few Zen rods for you to wake you up."
"Just tell me if that's what you mean."
The Great Sage glanced at him and said, "If you think about Miss Gao's family, then touch your bald head and feel the feeling...you will probably understand what it means to be unable to ask for anything."
Bajie:...
"What are the two of them doing?" Bajie looked at the young couple holding wooden sticks and wooden swords and asked the Great Sage: "This action looks like an ape playing... Brother Monkey, this is Did you teach them?”
The Great Sage informed Bajie and Xiaobailong about the recruitment of disciples just now.
When the young couple saw Bajie and Xiao Bailong returning, they knew it was time to go back and hurriedly stepped forward to formally greet them, "Meet Uncle Master."
Although they are only the registered disciples of the Great Sage and have not yet entered the Great Sage's sect, this still does not prevent them from calling the Great Sage's master their master and their junior disciples as their uncle.
Good manners are essential.
"Okay." The Great Sage stood up and said, "It's time to go back."
