Chapter 800

The journey to the west has come to an end. In late spring and early summer, the four masters and apprentices arrived at Tongtai Mansion.

There is a Kou Yuanwai in Tongtai Mansion, who made a wish 24 years ago to give alms to 96 monks. So far, [-] monks have been paid, and only four people are missing.

Seeing this data, does it feel a little familiar?

That's right, to destroy the French king would kill 96 monks, and when Tang Seng and others arrived, they killed [-] monks, and there were also four people missing.

Tang Seng lived in Kou Yuanwai's home for several days, and then held a water and land ceremony and lectured on scriptures for three days.

In history, when Xuanzang arrived in Tianzhu, on the one hand, he went to major Buddhist temples to learn Buddhism, on the other hand, he debated with people and refuted fallacies and heresies.

Later generations evolved multiple versions based on this. In Journey to the West, this lecture was used instead. In the Legend of the Son of Heaven, it was said to be looking for Buddhist soldiers. In Di Renjie's Four Heavenly Kings, he was looking for a way to break the illusion of sealing the demons.

No matter which one, Tang Seng is worthy of being the number one eminent monk in the world.

I don't have four or two strengths in my body, and I don't have half a cent of cultivation, but when I talk about Buddhism and Dharma, I have visions.

Talk about a "Peacock Sutra", every sentence will eliminate disasters; light a pharmacist's lamp, and the flame will be bright.Worshiping water and repenting, resolving grievances; satirizing "Hua Yan", eliminating slander.

The monks in Tongtai Mansion were all dissatisfied, and the local people all praised them.

After three days of lectures, Kou Yuanwai's wish was fulfilled, and the four masters and apprentices continued westward. This place is only [-] miles away from Lingshan Mountain. Tang Seng can bear it for a few days, which is already a lot of understanding of the Heart Sutra.

Everything was fine at first, but the Water and Land Ceremony was held too big, causing a group of thieves to sneak into Kou Yuanwai's house on a rainy night, kill Kou Yuanwai, and plunder gold, silver and jewels.

That's all, but Tang Seng and his disciples met this group of robbers, took the treasure back, and sent it back to others.

What's even more unfortunate is that Kou Yuanwai's daughter-in-law was dissatisfied with Tang Seng and others' insistence on leaving, and falsely accused the four of them.

The big coincidence was not such a coincidence, so the four masters and apprentices were arrested.

Some people want to ask here, the original book is clearly "mother", shouldn't it be Kou Yuanwai's old lady?
No, this is just a title, or it shows her status as "parent".

There is a difference between ancient writing and modern writing. Have you not seen Wu Dalang call Pan Jinlian "Sister-in-law" in Water Margin?
Some places in modern times also have this name, such as neon, which was very common in anime in the early years.

In context, this person is Kou Yuan's wife.

This daughter-in-law's nickname is "Threading Needle", which doesn't sound like a good name, but she is very prosperous.

Kou Yuanwai used to farm in his family and put down accounts, and there was little harvest. After marrying his wife, he "farmed and collected, and lent money again, bought profitably, and worked to make money", and saved this wealth.

Some people also said that Kou Yuanwai and his wife are more "stingy". For example, their servants always carry scales when they go out to buy vegetables.

You can think so, but Lin Xuan thinks it is Mr. Wu's high-level gangster.

Only [-] miles away from Lingshan Mountain is the "good place". Not only are bandits rampant, but you also need to carry a scale to prevent being scammed when you buy vegetables.

This kind of thing also happens in modern times. Many people have the experience of "weighing the mobile phone" or "weighing mineral water" to check the scale when buying fruit.

The height of the road is one foot, and the height of the devil is one foot. If you weigh mineral water, I will make the scale a remote control, which can be manually controlled.

But no matter what, it is a very advanced irony to bring a scale when you go out.

Ordinary matters naturally cannot trouble Monkey King, and Monkey King went directly to the underworld to find the souls of the bandits.

After traveling west for more than ten years, Sun Wukong's cultivation has also improved a lot. This time he went to the underworld and slapped his head, revealing his aura.

As soon as the divine light shines, it is like the forgiveness of heaven, and the darkness is everywhere, and wherever the light goes:
Thousands of sword trees are on the side, and the mountain of thousands of swords is as flat as possible.The ghosts in the dead city turned into charms, and ghosts were born under the Naihe Bridge.

The mountain of swords is flat, and the ghosts are supernatural.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made a vow that hell will not be empty, and vowed not to become a Buddha.

Once Sun Wukong's divine light shines, he can save countless evil ghosts from the underworld, which can be seen from his supernatural powers and high realm.

Not only that, in the past, Sun Wukong could only destroy the book of life and death forcibly, but now he can modify the book of life and death, adding 12 years of life to Kou Yuanwai.

This is also a high-level black, and it is related. Shouyuan can be added at will, fate can be changed at will, and the underworld can also talk about favors.

Take away the soul of Kou Yuanwai and revive him, this difficulty is completely over, and eight hundred miles ahead is the Holy Land of Lingshan, which I think about day and night.

There was no words all the way, and when they arrived outside the Lingshan Mountain, the Immortal Jinding went out to greet him.

Tang Seng knew that he had arrived at the Buddha's place, so he boiled water to take a bath.

She was originally handsome with red lips and white teeth, but now that she has completed her career, she has the appearance of an eminent monk.

It is advisable to take a bath after the completion of the meritorious deeds, so as to refine and tame the nature and innocence.The untold hardships are now over, and the Nine Precepts and Three Refugees start a new life.Sure enough, the demons go to the Buddha's place, and the disaster disappears, so they can see the recluses.Washing away dust and dirt is completely free of stains, returning to the original and restoring the body without damaging the body.

But, is this really the case?

Ninety-nine return to one, 81 difficulties are still short of the final dilemma, no matter what happens, it must be completed.

After climbing the Lingshan Mountain and walking about five or six miles, I saw a stream of flowing water, eight or nine miles wide, where the Buddha was already waiting.

This boat has no bottom, but it can take off the mortal shell for people and cross the sea of ​​suffering.

Tang Monk has karma for ten generations, Sha Monk can’t carry it, Zhu Bajie can’t carry it, Monkey King can’t hold Tang Monk to ride the clouds, only the bottomless ferry that guides the Buddha can carry it.

Originally, the four masters and apprentices punted across the river to shed their mortal shells, but Tang Seng was full of thoughts today.

The ferry boat can carry the cause and effect of ten generations, but it can't carry Tang Seng's trembling heart.

When the boat was in the middle, only a "plop" was heard, Tang Seng fell into the water and disappeared.

Sun Wukong exclaimed: "What happened to pick up the Buddha?"

Received the Buddha and said: "Sanzang still has dust in his heart, but my broken boat can't carry it. No one can help him in this difficulty."

After overcoming this difficulty, one can become a Buddha, but becoming a Buddha is not so easy.

Before Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva became a Buddha, he passed by a place and saw a fierce tiger about to eat a man. The man climbed a tall tree. There was no danger for the time being, and he did not know what would happen in the future.

When he arrived at Lingshan, the Bodhisattva wanted to save people, but he couldn't get into samadhi, so he simply gave up the chance to become a Buddha, saved that mortal, enlightened that tiger, and spread the praises to the world.

Now Tang Seng has thoughts in his mind, neither Sun Wukong nor Buddha can help him.

Not to mention them, even the Tathagata Buddha was a little startled at this time, for some reason, something went wrong when he was about to complete his merits and virtues.

To make Tang Seng have a mortal thought, that thought must be extremely strong.

What caused this idea was not the mirage, the king of the Daughter Kingdom, Wutian, or the Tathagata Buddha, but Sun Wukong.

Monkey King is Tang Seng's heart ape, only Monkey King can make Tang Seng completely moved.

"Master, the people of Fengxian County have suffered for three years. Ten families and nine households are all crying. Three times starved to death and two people died. Whose fault is it?"

"It's our fault, we can't escape, we can't hide."

 Original text: I saw an old man lighting a fire while a mother squeezed oars.The old man suddenly called out: "Mom, Mr. Kou has sons and money, but he doesn't live long."

  The original text of the Water Margin: Hold up Wuda with your left hand, and pour the medicine with your right hand.Wu Da took a sip and said, "Sister-in-law, this medicine is so bad!"
