I descend into the world of heaven

Gao Laozhuang was no longer visible. Master Chen Chu and his disciples were walking on the road, feeling inexplicably like seeking scriptures from the West. They saw mountains and rivers, and occasionally encountered a few little monsters.

Qingyuan held the dictionary in her hand and read it as she walked.

The CPU in his mind was almost spinning. When he was in Huaguo Mountain, he thought he had an extraordinary mind and a photographic memory. Why was it so difficult to remember the words in this booklet? It seemed that there was a resistance that prevented him from remembering yesterday. The words became blurry again today...

He followed Chen Chu with a grimace and said, "Master, I am really tired. Can you stop reading this book? In the future, I will definitely listen to the master and never go to the east or the west." West will never go east, Master, Master, okay?"

Chen Chu stopped and took out a book of ideological and moral ethics in the air and handed it over: "Yes, you need to read them together and learn and apply them."

Qingyuan's face turned even more bitter, but it was better not to say anything. After saying that, he picked up another book and took it tremblingly. Reading these things was more distressing than fighting with birds and beasts...

He didn't dare to talk about books anymore, so he changed the subject: "I don't know if that pig...Zhu Ganghye will tell my words to the king. He looks down on me very much."

Chen Chu smiled and said: "It's okay. If I didn't tell you, it would be the same when we meet..."

Without the King Kong Zhuo and the Immortal Binding Rope, it would be impossible to defeat the Zhugang Hyena. The road between Tang Seng and his disciples seemed to be in trouble, but in fact there were immortals secretly protecting them.

After more than fourteen years of collecting scriptures, the team has been setting out for half a year now, which means that Chen Chu still has fourteen years left to complete the mission. He needs to be cautious and improve his own strength. Even if the mission fails, he still has the ability to run away...

There are many immortals and gods in Journey to the West who are capable of turning the sun and the moon upside down, moving mountains and filling the sea, but their personalities are very down-to-earth. They get angry when they should be angry and take action when it is time to take action. For example, Patriarch Bodhi lives in Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai. .

The identity of this patriarch is very mysterious. The most scenes were during the time when Sun Wukong was apprenticed to him. It seemed that he appeared just to train Sun Wukong to become a talent, and then he seemed to disappear directly.

In Buddhism, there is Venerable Subhuti, a disciple of the Tathagata. I don’t know if he is related to the Patriarch Bodhi in Journey to the West. Because when Patriarch Bodhi teaches, he not only teaches Zen, but also Confucianism, and Taoist scriptures such as "Huang Ting". Like a co-cultivator of the three religions, he is also very down-to-earth. He lives in the realm of mortals and sees people who go up the mountain to chop firewood. The woodcutter was depressed, so he taught him how to sing to relieve his boredom.

I just don’t know why they only teach spells but not moral character. As a result, Sun Wukong went further and further away after he became capable, and was finally trapped under the Five Fingers Mountain...

If you have a chance, go and see if this great power is still there.

Chen Chu thought so.

At this time, Qingyuan suddenly shouted loudly: "Master, look, such a tall mountain is almost catching up with Huaguo Mountain!"

This monkey always spoke the words "Huaguoshan" every day. Chen Chu had already formed a habit of it. He raised his head and looked into the distance. He saw that there was indeed a very tall mountain peak covering a very large area. No wonder the team climbed over it instead of detouring. It seems that when we reach this point, we have passed the boundary of the Uzang Kingdom and entered the Baoxiang Kingdom...

Chen Chu's mind echoed what Zhu Gangxi said when he left.

He immediately changed into a more formal robe, and changed the monkey into a clean and tidy one, and then said: "This mountain is called Futu Mountain, and there lives a Zen master with a high level of cultivation, named Zen Master Wuchao. When we go up the mountain later, you must restrain your character and not do anything that violates etiquette..."

Qing Yuan put away her playful expression and said, "Disciple understands!"

Entering Futu Mountain, you can see towering trees everywhere, surrounded by the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, as if you have entered a fairyland. Even Qingyuan, the monkey who ranks Huaguo Mountain as the best in the world, couldn't help but praise it a few times. Sentence: "Not bad, not bad, it looks like the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits. There is also an indescribable and wonderful feeling in this forest. My disciple's mind is much clearer than usual."

The two of them walked inside as they talked.

With the strength of their feet, they walked for about half a day. When they were about to reach the top of the mountain, Qingyuan shivered, pointed forward and said, "Master, look at it, it's such a big bird's nest!"

There is a huge tree ahead.

There is a bird's nest on the tree made of intertwined branches, vines, grass and leaves, and the overall color is dark.

Chen Chu took a closer look and saw a Zen master wearing soap-colored robes sitting deep in the bird's nest. He was sitting cross-legged with his hands on his knees. He was neither doing mudra nor chanting sutras. He was just sitting like that, as if he was in meditation.

This is Zen Master Wuchao!

In Journey to the West, he is an absolutely important being. When the Buddhist scripture-seeking team came to Futu Mountain, they met Zen Master Wuchao. Zhu Gangxi, a former Marshal of Tianpeng who regarded himself as an awesome being, also admitted that Zen Master Wuchao did have "a few... Divide your abilities."

Zen Master Wuchao was friendly to Zhu Gangxi and Tang Seng, but he paid little attention to Sun Wukong, claiming that he had little knowledge.

Zen Master Wuchao not only passed down the Heart Sutra of Paramita to Chen Xuanzang, but also wrote a verse, the content of which vaguely predicted Chen Xuanzang's next disaster. In this poem, the old stone monkey provoked Sun Wukong. Talking about martial arts, he attacked Zen Master Wuchao secretly, but not even a hair was knocked off...

This is what the original book says: " Before Tripitaka understood what he meant, the Zen master turned into golden light and walked up the path to Wuchao. The elder went up to thank him, and the monk was so angry that he raised the iron rod and went up, only to see lotus flowers. Thousands of flowers, a thousand layers of auspicious mist. Even if a traveler has the power to stir up seas and rivers, he should not hold onto a wisp of vine from Wuchao."

Experts will know if there is one as soon as they strike. With this stick, Sun Wukong will immediately understand the gap between them. According to his fiery personality, he must gain something! But after the blow, Chen Xuanzang grabbed him and asked him to get off the donkey, as if nothing had happened...

Chen Chu and the other two arrived.

Zen Master Wuchao slowly opened his eyelids, stretched his muscles, poked his head out, looked down, and said with a smile: "Hospitable, hospitable, first there were monks who took Buddhist scriptures and brought stone monkeys, and now Taoist priests from outside the region bring horse monkeys. It's fate. , fate!" After saying that, he jumped under the tree, came to a man and a monkey, put his hands together and gave him a gift.

What kind of gift is this?

Chen Chu was also busy returning the gift.

Qingyuan behind him also bowed.

Zen Master Wuchao has a bald head and a strong body. His face looks like that of a man in his early thirties. He is always smiling. He has neither Buddhist light nor fairy aura around him. He seems to be an ordinary practicing monk with special behavior.

He clasped his hands together and said, "Wuchao, a poor monk, I wonder what the two of you are doing?"

Chen Chu replied: "Poor Chen San, this is my disciple Qingyuan. He was recommended by Tianpeng Marshal Zhu Gangxi to come to Futu Mountain to ask the Zen master for some advice on spiritual practice..."

Upon hearing the words "Zhu Ganghei", Zen Master Wuchao sighed slightly: "I see, since it was recommended by him, then if you have anything to ask, just ask..."

Chen Chu thanked him and went straight to the point and talked about the issue of the Thirty-Six Methods of Tiangang.

As he said, Zen Master Wuchao began to explain the Thirty-six Methods of Tiangang. Immediately, Futu Mountain was filled with the fragrance of wild flowers, golden lotuses sprouted from the ground, and mysterious sounds continued...
