Chapter 4 (three)

According to legend, there is a spell called "returning dreams". After casting this spell, you can go back to the past along the road in your dreams. "Sanzang, why did you come?" Tathagata asked from the lotus seat. I kowtowed, "I want to ask Master to teach me the art of returning to dreams." "Where are you going back to?" "Back on the way to get scriptures." He smiled, "Have you ever learned scriptures?" My head paused heavily on the ground twice, and the blood flowed out, brilliant red, like a peach blossom in full bloom.

"You have entered the way of magic, Sanzang! Have you ever read scriptures?!" Tathagata shouted. I was stunned, and I saw that my life was slowly unfolding in front of my eyes like a long scroll.I saw myself getting out of a woman's body and crying loudly to the world; I saw myself standing slowly, stumbling, and babbling; I saw myself studying and practicing hard in Wuyue Mountain; Seeing my body weeping; seeing my soul leave the body, rising slowly in the white clouds, all the sun shines on me, I become a Buddha. "Have you ever learned scriptures?" ……… My heart was empty and tottering.

"Come on, come with me, I'll take you back." The boy next to Tathagata said to me. "What did you say?" I opened my eyes suddenly. "Follow me! I'll take you back!" Fairy Tao'er grabbed my collar. "I won't go!" I struggled desperately, "You damn fairy, I will definitely let my apprentice kill you!" Tao'er sighed, "It's up to you, but let me tell you, my sister is coming. You~, take care." After I became a Buddha, I was no longer the stubborn and impulsive monk back then. I knew that everything I saw in my eyes was an illusion, and when there was a gust of wind, everything would disappear without a trace.For three thousand years, how many kingdoms have been destroyed, how many cities have been barren, and the face of the secular world has changed after vicissitudes without leaving any traces.No matter you are persistent or give up, the final outcome is the same, the body is transformed into nothingness.

In the goblin's cave, demons danced wildly, and the peach tree spirit laughed heartily. "Immortal!" she cried. "Immortal! Immortal! Immortal!" Thousands of little monsters echoed in unison. I was chained to a pole and stared blankly at these ignorant creatures.Yes, I am about to die, but they will never live forever. Early death or late death, in the eyes of Buddha, there is no difference. Tao'er stood far away, looking at me quietly. If I were not a monk, I would definitely admire her beauty from the bottom of my heart. She is like a blooming peach blossom, fragrant and bright, and the whole cave is brighter because of her.She's neither ichor nor skeleton, and the scriptures aren't always right, I thought.

"Wash and peel Tang Sanzang, and carry it to the steamer!" Peach tree spirit shouted. "Hi! Hi! Hi!" The little demons cheered. Tao'er's body shook violently, and her face was flushed. "Look at her happy!" I thought bitterly. The two monsters supported me and walked out. The cave was rough, and my head hit the stone wall, causing severe pain. "Wait a minute!" Tao'er said suddenly. She grabbed my arm with a smile on her face, "Sister, these rough things must not be washed clean, I'll go!" "Okay!" Peach Tree Demon said, "You have done a great job this time, you can choose which piece of meat you want to eat yourself!"

"I want to eat his heart!" Tao'er said, biting her lip.Her teeth flashed, like the most precious jade in the world.
