Although the prestige of Tripitaka Buddha is even greater in the Tang Dynasty, Monkey King, the Monkey King, the Monkey King, who is the disciple of Tripitaka Buddha, is actually not low in fame in the Tang Dynasty.
Especially as various stories about the Journey to the West produced by Zen Master Wujing were circulated in the Tang Dynasty, the story about the five masters and disciples became even more popular.
Moreover, under the wonderful illustrations of Zen Master Wu Jing, the image of the Great Sage has become the favorite existence of children, especially the title of "Monkey King", which directly captures their hearts and is often used in role-playing. At that time, everyone was vying for the identity of the Great Sage.
Next is the little white dragon.
Master Tripitaka, on the other hand, could only be ranked third.
One of the main reasons is that adults often use the name of Tripitaka Buddha to intimidate disobedient children. A common saying is, if you are disobedient and want to be a bad child, be careful that Tripitaka Buddha will kill you. Transcendence. Just like the salvation of a monster, a fire will burn you to ashes.
Therefore, the reputation of Tripitaka Buddha has plummeted in the world of children. It can be said that the threat of demons has been eliminated. After all, even demons are afraid of Sanzang Holy Buddha. Isn't it more terrifying than demons?
Coupled with the deliberate exaggeration by some storytellers to enhance the drama of the story, the image of an indifferent and stubborn old monk appeared in the children's imagination.
As for Zen Master Wu Jing, he clearly painted the master's appearance vividly, but he still ignored it. Apparently, the children still had the preconceived image and it was difficult to shake it.
Therefore, a wonderful phenomenon has appeared in the Three Realms, whether it is human race or demon race. Whenever a child is disobedient, as long as the parents mention the name of Tripitaka Holy Buddha, the effect will often be remarkable.
Little Li Bai may not be afraid of the name of Sanzang Saint Buddha, but his love for the great sage comes from the compatibility of souls. When he heard that this was Huaguo Mountain, he put aside all the monkey wine. One leaped forward, his eyes full of surprise and expectation.
"Hahahaha——" The leader saw that the little kid was so excited when he mentioned his king, and he felt a little closer in his heart. He smiled and said: "You kid also knows the name of my king? Yes, this is Huaguo. Shan will be the patrol commander of Huaguo Mountain."
"Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty has met the commander."
Li Bai was also from a wealthy family, so his etiquette was naturally very considerate. Seeing that little Li Bai could come here alone as a baby, and seeing his extraordinary demeanor, the commander said to himself: I'm afraid he is not really from the Tang Dynasty. It seems that he is probably someone with a good background. .Absolutely an extraordinary person.
"Quick, go tell Commander Ma Liu that there are distinguished guests from the Tang Dynasty." The mountain patrol commander gave instructions to the little monkey on the side. The little monkey did not dare to neglect and jumped up the cliff in two or two steps. , nowhere to be seen.
No outsiders have been to Huaguoshan for a long time.
Especially when the Great Sage was angry, he led his monkeys and grandchildren to ambush many "monkey hunters", making Huaguo Mountain a taboo place in Dongsheng Shenzhou. Mortals did not dare to approach, and the monks were afraid of being misunderstood by the great sage, so they stayed away from Huaguo Mountain.
However, in the past few years, immortals from the sky such as Erlang Zhenjun, Nezha, and Taibai Jinxing came here. Then there were the king's junior disciples, and Zen Master Bajie even stayed in Huaguo Mountain for a few days. Frankly speaking, The comfort and pleasure of Huaguo Mountain made him happy and reluctant to miss Shu.
If he hadn't bumped into Zen Master Wu Jing who came after him, he probably wouldn't have known when he would come down the mountain.
In fact, in Master Tripitaka's view, these disciples traveling in the three realms are far more useful than staying in Daci'en Temple to eat fast and chant Buddha's name. If the consciousness-only teaching had not been founded now, he would have even thought of going to Jiangnan to see what Jinshan Temple was like during the Tang Dynasty. What a situation.
It didn't take long.
Little Li Bai and Miss Gongsun were invited to the Water Curtain Cave together. Although this was the king's cave, monkeys were not allowed to enter and exit.
"I haven't thanked Sister Gongsun for her support along the way."
Although Miss Gongsun did not show up, it does not mean that Xiao Li Bai really knows nothing. It is just that both parties have a tacit understanding and no one has exposed it.
"To be honest, I didn't help at all along the way." Miss Gongsun sighed helplessly, and then smiled: "Also, I am older than your parents."
"Sister is a practitioner. Mortals like my parents are naturally incomparable." Little Li Bai solemnly introduced to several leaders of Huaguo Mountain: "This Miss Gongsun is a female sword immortal who was born in Wuzhuang Temple. Gongsun Jianwu's name is now a well-known figure in Chang'an City."
Miss Gongsun waved her hands quickly, "It's too exaggerated. It's just a humble reputation. Besides, it's not necessarily a good reputation."
The leaders of Huaguoshan did not ask any questions. This girl looked free and easy, but there were some things that were not easy to ask directly.
Miss Gongsun first became famous in Chang'an because she expressed her feelings to Xiao Bailong in the street. There were many people on the street at that time, and of course there were also those women who admired Xiao Bailong.
It's just that compared to Miss Gongsun, they obviously lack the "hero saves the beauty" segment. There is such a causal relationship between Miss Gongsun and Xiao Bailong.
That is to say, since Xiao Bailong became a disciple of Master Sanzang, he has never been lewd by women. He treats all the girls who fall in love with him equally and rejects each of them equally. Otherwise, if Miss Gongsun really has an affair with Xiao Bailong, What will happen to her reputation? I really can't say for sure.
Little Li Bai and Miss Gongsun were guests here at Huaguo Mountain, and Zen Master Wujing, who had already been here in his avatar, received a jade sword message from Jin'ao Island. It was the Holy Mother of Wudang who invited him to Jin'ao Island for a talk. .
Naturally, Wu Jing would not refuse. As for the safety of little Li Bai and Miss Gongsun, he did not need to worry about it.
Not to mention having the Qingping Sword to protect him, and no one dared to come to Huaguo Mountain to act arrogantly. Even if the jade sword of the Holy Mother of God could be delivered directly to him, it was obvious that even as far away as Huaguo Mountain, Xiao Li Bai is already within the scope of her protection.
Wu Jing was a very low-key person, and he did not go to Jin'ao Island from the sight of the monks on the coast of the East China Sea.
Instead, he hid his figure, entered the sea from the waterfall under the Water Curtain Cave of Huaguo Mountain, passed through the gate of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, and walked to Jin'ao Island by water. Although he has already saved the body of the general who rolled the curtain, his water nature has not diminished because of this.
"Namo Tripitaka Tathagata."
Zen Master Wujing clasped his hands together and performed a Buddhist etiquette towards the Holy Mother Wudang and the golden hoop horse on the edge of the island, "Little monk Sha Wujing has seen the Holy Mother and the Great Immortal."
"Zen Master, you are polite." The Holy Mother Wudang and the Golden Hoop Immortal also returned the courtesy.
Then, Wu Jing saluted the three brothers beside him and said with a smile: "Three national masters, long time no see. Congratulations to the three national masters for finding the master, they will be successful."
"You're welcome, Zen Master." After the three brothers returned the gift, Immortal Lu Li responded on behalf of the three brothers, "I would also like to congratulate the master and his disciples on their success in learning the scriptures. The name of Tripitaka Holy Buddha has shocked the three worlds. , is the mainstay of the Consciousness-Only Dharma, and we, as junior practitioners, must seek advice from the Zen Master for this."
"Hahaha——" Both parties are also old acquaintances. They also formed a good relationship in Chechi Country. The senior brother also taught each of the three brothers a magical power. That is the real earth evil technique. It can't be compared with "juggling tricks" such as beheading, heart-breaking, and frying.
The three brothers are naturally sympathetic.
Since they were acquaintances, Our Lady Wudang and Ma Sui exchanged a few words with Zen Master Wujing and then let the three brothers entertain their guests.
Because Zen Master Wujing has a special identity, it means that there is no difference between the clones of the original body. However, they default to staying with the master as the main body, and the other eight clones also have their own images. In order to make it easier for others to distinguish.
There are those who are tutu, some are painters, some are storytellers, there are also scholars, wealthy businessmen, beggars, etc. And the person who is on Jin'ao Island now is dressed as a painter.
Three national masters accompanied Zen Master Wujing to visit the sights on Jin'ao Island, while Ma Sui on the island couldn't help but admired: "I didn't expect that just a clone of Zen Master Wujing could have such powerful magic power. It is now widely spread in the Three Realms that this Zen Master Wu Jing is actually the one with the deepest Buddhist realm among the sect of Tripitaka Buddha."
"I have no interest in Buddhism." Our Lady of Wudang pressed the fairy sword in her hand, "I just want to see if this disciple of Tripitaka's sect has lived up to his reputation."
"Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, what do you think, Senior Sister?"
"It's well-deserved." Our Lady of Wudang gave her own evaluation.
That's what he said, but Ma Sui knew that Senior Sister Wudang had a relationship with Sanzang Holy Buddha in the Tang Dynasty. From the perspective of Senior Sister Wudang, if Sanzang Holy Buddha had not intended to fulfill his wish, would Li Bai, a disciple Whether it can be successfully accepted under the door is still a matter of two opinions.
Now I happened to meet Zen Master Wujing and followed Xiao Li Bai all the way to the East China Sea. It happened that the three incompetent disciples under his sect also had a relationship with Zen Master Wujing back then. Maybe it was just right to invite him to Jin'ao Island to witness Xiao Li Bai's initiation. This is Sister Wudang’s response to Tripitaka Buddha.
It is strange to say that Senior Sister Wudang does not have the slightest favorable impression of Buddhism. Even the Senior Brother who is now a Buddha in Lingshan does not dare to return to Jin'ao Island easily.
If this junior sister is really going to kill him with a sword, then it's not even a matter of fighting back, and it's not a big deal if he doesn't fight back. Until the misunderstanding is completely resolved, it's better to hide first.
Thousands of years have passed, and these days are not far behind.
Ma Sui had been to Lingshan, and he knew very well what his senior brother was thinking. The senior brother just wanted to take advantage of the Wutian Demon Ancestor's invasion of Lingshan, hand over Lingshan directly, and go through reincarnation himself.
If nothing unexpected happens, with the strength of Sanzang Holy Buddha, he can turn the tide and revive Buddhism. Then the reincarnated senior brother may not have a chance to be involved in the disaster, and the Lingshan Rebellion will be put down.
And at that time, hey, I'm afraid he will follow suit and say that reincarnating as a human is a human being, and that Tathagata and Buddha are all previous lives. Now he only has words like "I am so-and-so".
After finally coming down from Lingshan Mountain, how could Senior Brother be willing to go back again?
"Zen Master, please look, this is the Biyou Palace."
The three brothers brought Zen Master Wujing to Biyou Palace, and he naturally saw this famous painting of the Three Realms. The long-eared Dingguang Immortal was hung on the gate of Biyou Palace and suffered from thousands of swords every day. .
Back then, the general who rolled the curtains was in the lower realm, and he also suffered from the pain of thousands of swords piercing his heart. He was tortured to the point of madness. He simply lost his mind and directly degenerated into a monster, eating people to survive. And Wu Jing in this world is the incarnation of the obsession of the nine generations of pilgrims who were eaten by the Curtain God. It can also be said to be a cycle of cause and effect.
Although Zen Master Wujing was tempted to write, he still resisted the idea. This was not a good thing, and even for Jie Jiao, it was definitely considered a "scandal", otherwise it would not have caused undue consequences. The Holy Mother was so angry.
In addition to the pain of being pierced by ten thousand swords, his body was almost covered with golden hoops, which looked like Ma Sui's handiwork at first glance.
After they finished studying the scriptures, Guanyin Bodhisattva actually revealed to them that he was afraid that their master was an ordinary monk and in case they disobeyed discipline, so he borrowed three tight hoops from the Golden Hoop Immortal Ma Sui.
Unexpectedly, although their master claimed to be an "ordinary monk", he did nothing like "ordinary monks". Their disciples were even more loyal and did not dare to disobey the master in the slightest. This tightrope was of no use at all. , and asked her to give Ma Sui a favor for free.
What happened back then can only be said to be beyond the expectations of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Even after she saw what Sanzang did, she wanted to put a tight ring on Sanzang's head because it was obvious that the most restless one was him Tang. Tripitaka.
Beyond the East China Sea.
Although Xiao Li Bai was fond of wine, he also knew how to drink wine. He only tasted it briefly and did not stay in Huaguo Mountain for a long time. After getting acquainted with several leaders of Huaguo Mountain, he said goodbye and went down the mountain.
I'm going to pay homage to the Master soon. If I drink too much monkey wine at Huaguo Mountain and lose my composure when I see the Master, it will be more of a loss than a gain.
Of course, if he could have expected that he would never have the chance to drink again after arriving on Jin'ao Island, he might seize this opportunity to get drunk and drink to his heart's content.
Also going down the mountain was Miss Gongsun.
Originally, based on Miss Gongsun's thoughts, she felt that it would be better for her to just turn around and leave. A leader of Huaguo Mountain smiled and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. The girl secretly protected little brother Li Bai all the way. There is no way he can hide this matter." If the Holy Mother Queen goes with you, you will feel more magnanimous."
"But."
"Don't worry." The commander continued, "The Holy Mother Queen can give the Qingping Sword to little brother Li Bai, how could she turn him away because of such a thing? Besides, girl, you said it yourself, You didn't do much on this journey. The Holy Mother is wise and discerning, so she can naturally tell the difference."
In addition, Xiao Li Bai also tried his best to invite, "Sister, when I become a disciple, there must be someone from my family present, right?"
"good!"
Miss Gongsun nodded slowly, but she still had worries in her heart, "Although what you said makes sense, if this really makes you lose the opportunity to become a disciple."
