While they were talking, Zen Master Wuchao arrived and asked Xuankong, "Brother Zhu, is this the master you have been waiting for?"
"Amitabha, Xuan Yan has met the Zen Master." Xuan Yan dismounted his horse and saluted.
"Amitabha, you are polite." Zen Master Wuchao sat upright and returned the courtesy.
Zhu Bajie was dissatisfied, "Zen Master Wuchao, although my master's cultivation is average now, he will definitely achieve great achievements in the future."
Zen Master Wuchao smiled and said: "I know, I know, Sun Houhou and Xiao Bailong have spread the news across the West Sea, Xuan Yan's previous life was... Phoenix Divine Fire! Who are you!"
Before he finished speaking, he looked into the distance.
It was Yamazaki who set a fire behind, attracting the attention of Zen Master Wuchao.
"In Shimoyamazaki, there are some things that are better not to be revealed in person. If the Zen master is here to finish the cause and effect, please do so, otherwise, don't be too troublesome!"
"Huh, you're from the mountains, right? I've heard of your name, but how did you know that I wasn't talking about cause and effect?"
"If it is cause and effect, then you are a fake monk, because Buddhism will not use this matter to determine cause and effect."
"Whether I am a real monk or a fake monk, you don't need to tell me!"
"If you are not a monk, but you dress like one, and you can do this in Xiniu Hezhou without being approached by Buddhists, it means that you have a great cause and effect with Buddhism."
"So what? What does it have to do with you!"
Yamazaki took the initiative to admit defeat, "That's all, it's me who talks too much. You can do whatever you want. What should come will come, and what should be known will be known."
"Huh." Zen Master Wuchao won the argument and turned to look at Xuan Yan.
"I have a volume of the Heart Sutra, with fifty-four sentences and two hundred and seventy-seven crosses. It is the general sutra for cultivating the truth and serves as the gateway to the Buddha."
After saying this and reciting it once, the Buddha's light really overflowed and all obstacles disappeared.
Xuan Yan was able to hear it once, but Yamazaki didn't listen at all, and even blocked the sound so that no one heard it.
At the same time, I explain to everyone that if you listen, you will owe cause and effect.
"With Xuan Yan's status, only the second ancestor of Buddhism and Tathagata Buddha can teach him scriptures."
"Now he is preaching sutras here, but Buddhism does not stop him. I am afraid that the sutras were passed down by the Buddha himself. They went through a complete circle and were indirectly passed on to Xuan Yan through the mouth of Zen Master Wuchao."
"In this case, the origin of this Zen master is very strange."
"Zhu Bajie just said that he once asked Zhu Bajie to practice with him. In this way, Zen Master Wuchao may also be related to the ancient heaven."
"He dresses like a monk, but his heart is not like one. This can only be caused by cause and effect. Even the Buddha could not transform him and could only make him half a monk."
"Then he may be a relic from the heaven who survived the war between earth and heaven, and there is cause and effect there. Only that kind of cause and effect can make the Buddha have no choice."
Everyone was thoughtful, but Gao Cuilan was dumbfounded. For the first time, she realized that the legendary mountain man had far-reaching wisdom.
…
After Zen Master Wuchao taught the sutra, he flew away. Xuanyan folded his hands and chewed on the spot. Zhu Bajie waited impatiently, rolled up the master and put him on the horse, letting him think while walking.
Xuan Yan came back to his senses and escaped from the state of enlightenment.
Yamazaki and others were speechless. Zhu Bajie really failed in accomplishing more than failing.
If Xuan Yan was allowed to turn around on his own, he would probably give birth to a trace of his soul.
Now, I don’t know that I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
People are cheating on their father, but Zhu Bajie is cheating on his master.
…
Yamazaki thought of another cause and effect, that is, Xuan Yan accepted Zhu Bajie as his disciple, maybe he owed it to him and wanted to help him become a righteous person, rather than Zhu Bajie owing Xuan Yan, so he became his disciple.
Or each party owes the other, and each has its own cause and effect.
Xuan Yan was a golden cicada in his previous life, and it was Buddhism that owed Zhu Bajie.
The same goes for the Monkey King and the Little White Dragon.
From this point of view, Xuan Yan's trip became even more bizarre.
…
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed, and Xuan Yan finally walked out of the mountain.
Zhu Bajie felt sorry for his mother-in-law's scallion pancakes. He had finished eating them, but his wife was incapable of making them and was still trying to figure out how to make them.
In other words, it would take just a few days to walk out along the trade route and fly over a few cliffs.
Xuan Yan was stunned because he was walking around in circles, far away from the trade route, and he didn't know where he went.
It took fifteen days to get out of the mountain, and then I got lost and could only walk southwest.
No wonder Sun Houhou and Xiao Bailong don't serve them. This monk is so ignorant.
Fortunately, Xingchenyuan is following behind, so I can always eat enough. Otherwise, the life will be tiring, and I can't fly back to Gaojiazhuang every now and then to ask for alms, right?
…
"Aww!"
A roar of a tiger woke Zhu Bajie out of his thoughts, but he was also shaken to the ground by the frightened horse.
When Yizulu got up, he found that the master was gone, including his men and horses, only his frightened horse was running wildly.
Far behind.
Yamazaki was speechless, not because of Xuan Yan, but because of the horse.
Being a horse is full of misfortunes. Is this fate bad or good?
I won’t mention the bad ones, but the good ones mean dying early and being reborn early, and all of them have merit.
If the monkey wants to kill it, if the little white dragon wants to eat it, both will get merit.
But this time it is even more violent, I am afraid that Xuan Yan will suffer it and save his life.
Because the monster will eat the horse first and then Xuan Yan, this gives Xuan Yan a chance.
Otherwise, the main dish tonight will be Xuan Yan.
…
Zhu Bajie flew over to ask for help, and then the others knew something had happened and looked at Yamazaki together.
Yamazaki waved his hand calmly, "Don't worry, this is Xuan Yan's fate, it's not easy for us people to intervene right now."
"Otherwise, in terms of cause and effect, not only will you not get any benefits, but you will also have a grudge with Sun Monkey and Xiao Bailong. Since Zhu Bajie is here now, it is the right time for you to go to the West Sea to find Monkey Sun and Xiao Bailong to save people."
Zhu Bajie said angrily: "How can I, old pig, have that kind of magic power now!"
"Then, Li Yingqiong, you and I will take this Zhu Bajie for a trip, and take Yuan Xing with me. If there is a fight, there will be a protector."
Li Yingqiong suddenly became energetic, "What fight are you going to fight? Who are you going to fight with?"
"I don't know. There are many monsters on the islands in the West Sea, just in case."
"Okay, we'll come as soon as we go."
…
Li Yingqiong took Yuan Xing and Zhu Bajie and flew away in sword light. Yamazaki found a water source to set up camp, and used a water mirror to show everyone what happened in the monster cave.
The monster cave is quite large. Although the torches on the cave wall illuminate the surroundings, it makes the cave look even darker and more gloomy.
In the cave hall, a sharp-mouthed monster sat on a stone chair in the middle. It was wearing a scarlet cloak and seemed to show a bloodthirsty side.
Gao Cuilan couldn't help being afraid, and her upper and lower teeth were chattering.
Everyone smiled, and Yamazaki also put away the water mirror.
"That's about it. We'll wait until the monkeys come back to save people."
Shaoyao said regretfully: "It's a pity that the young lady came to the horse for alms, and I can't keep it."
Fan Zhen shook her head, "This time it is really doomed. If it doesn't die, Xuan Yan will die."
Zhu Ya smiled and said: "That's good. Go to reincarnation earlier. With the merits of following Xuan Yan and the merits of dying as a substitute, you will definitely become an adult in the next life."
Gao Cuilan didn't understand, "The little girl has an idea, I don't know whether it is right or wrong."
Princess Jingqing smiled and asked, "But ask us, why didn't we save Xuan Yan and Ma even though we could save them?"
…
