Chapter 7 7. The god who proves the innocence of love

Xuanzheng Hall of Baoxiang Kingdom. In the center of the main hall is locked a colorful tiger. Tens of thousands of golden lotuses gave off brilliant light, and the two venerables descended from the lotus seat and stood in front of the tiger. "It was so easy to see him." "It seems that it is wise to transfer Sun Wukong." One venerable said to the other: "Brother Kasyapa, do you feel a sense of intimacy with the tiger in front of you?" "Brother Anuo, he is no longer the old second brother." Anuo saw a plate of raw meat in front of the tiger, and said with a smile, "Ha! Tigers don't eat meat."

As soon as the words were finished, the tiger's ears pricked up, and all of a sudden it lay down on the plate and began to gnaw wildly. "Okay! Tang Xuanzang, you broke the meat precept, what should you do?" "Naughty animal! Do you know that the Buddha's great compassion allowed you to go to the west to regain the righteous fruit, but you don't know how to repent, and you broke the precept of meat again! I will accept the supreme Buddha's decree and rectify you on the spot! You Can you realize it?" After they finished talking, the tiger also ate the meat on the plate, hiccupped, ignored them, stretched out his paws to scratch the itch, hiccupped again, and fell asleep.

"It's unreasonable!" The two venerables became furious and stretched out five fingers. Just as the Fa-rectification was imminent, two murderous auras suddenly struck from outside and above the hall, like a breeze cruising the earth, and like a bright moon sprinkling its brilliance. Unable to defend, the two venerables had no choice but to avoid it. "Qingfengmingyuejian? Are you from the Wuzhuang temple on Longevity Mountain?" "We are the chief second disciple of Wuzhuang Temple, Qingfeng." "Mingyue." The two boys with swords stood in front of the tiger, completely blocking the two elders.

"We came here on the order of the Buddha, and I hope you two will not interfere with our law enforcement." Kasyapa said in a deep voice. Qingfeng and Mingyue pointed at the sword, and said without fear: "If you want to hurt Tang Monk, how can you ask the sword?!" Anuo's eyes widened with anger, and he shouted, "Presumptuous!" With a wave of his hand, the Xuanzheng Hall was filled with swords, lights and swords. "boom"! "boom"!Two dull sounds. ——Qingfeng fell into the pool of blood under the pillar, and the pillar was dented; Mingyue lay on the tiger's body, the sword was gone, but her hands were still protecting the tiger.

——Anuo's monk robe was cut open; Kasyapa's shoulder was also slightly injured. "Stop fighting trapped beasts, get out of the way!" Kasyapa said. Mingyue ignored it and hugged the tiger tightly. "Stubborn!" Anuo raised his palm. "Wait a minute, don't worry." A gust of wind blew by, and a burly figure appeared in front of Mingyue. ——It’s Zhu Bajie. "Marshal Tianpeng?" The two venerables were a little surprised. "What? Did the appearance of the handsome guy surprise you?" "Marshal, we don't want to confront you, and you are not our opponent. Don't sacrifice your life needlessly."

"Wow! Do you still know the preciousness of life?" Bajie said, "Of course, your opponent is not me. If you also know that 'life is precious', I advise the two venerables to run away!" "What did you say?" "Ouch! Isn't this Anuo and Kasyapa? It's been a long time. Come, have some tea first!" A familiar voice came from behind their heads. The two venerables suddenly, as if struck by lightning, were stunned. "This voice... Could it be..." The two turned their heads stiffly, and saw the person they had been unwilling to see in their hearts—"Monkey King!!"

"Ouch! Don't look at people like that! I'm so embarrassed. You two, put your chins away, they all fell to the ground. How can you eat if you get dirty!" Anuo and Kasyapa looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what to do. "You two," Bajie said, "it's still too late to run." The two venerables looked at each other, joined hands and said, "Sun Wukong, you won't be so lucky next time!" "Alas!" Wukong sighed, "Why does every villain always say such a sentence before running away?" ——The turkey replied: "No way, it's just a formality, next time I will write 'I wish you good health', okay!"

The monkey and the pig saved Qingfeng and Mingyue. "Thank you for saving me. Here is Master's 'Immeasurable Grass Returning Pill', which can transform the world's evil spirits. Give it to Monk Tang! We have to go back to recuperate, and there will be a period later!" Using "Boundless Grass for Dan", the tiger became Tang Seng again. "Monk, get up, you've turned back into a human, why are you still lying on the ground?" Bajie called out. "Meow! Give me some time to get used to it. Meow!" Both the pig and the monkey fell down.

The four of them walked on one horse. "Why did you come to rescue me so late? Meow!" Tang Seng sat on the horse and asked - he hadn't slowed down yet. "None of them want to save you." Drifting said. "Clang"! "puff"! "Boom!"Drifting was kicked by pigs, monkeys and horses. "I've never thought about it that way. When Master is in trouble, I always take the lead!" Monkey confessed first. "puff"! "Boom!"He was kicked by pigs and horses. "Only pigs are honest." "Snoring!" the horse snorted.

"Oh, and horses are loyal too." "Ah! You finally understand that people are born by their mother..." The horse stopped, and the three looked at him silently. "Oh! The sun is shining and the team spirit is... great!  …" On the Westward Journey, the pig asked the monkey. "You finally understand?" "Don't you understand?" "You really want to do it?" "You do not want it?" "..." The pig looked at the monkey, and the monkey looked at the pig.Two close friends are closely united, working together, invincible, and using their hands to prove this truth.

"Huh? Are you playing with glass?" Drifting interjected. "Look for a fight!" "Let's hammer!" "oops!" On a big rock in the distance. "Brother, I told you to simply kill Tang Seng, look now..." "It's not my fault either, the superior ordered it so. Besides, when we wanted to act again, weren't we blocked by the Tathagata?" "It seems that I can only go out in person." "Go back and get ready to entertain the guests well, Brother Silver Horn." In each of you, there is something you love: love the vast night sky with whispering stars; love this rich and fertile land where all things grow; Love the unrestrained, chic and uninhibited life... But the most important thing is that you each love a person, a person who means a lot to you, just because you are with this person Together, you are sinners.Do you consider yourselves guilty?If so, then even if you go to the west and return to the fairy class, you will still be sinners.In order to prove that it is right, Jin Chanzi sacrificed thousands of years of Taoism and ten generations of practice, but he still does not have enough strength to prove it.go!Heroes, to prove that love is innocent, to justify your actions! Because... I used to love too. Luojia Mountain Purple Bamboo Forest. Avalokitesvara went to Putuo Rock, but she couldn't find Laojun Taishang. "He never leaves without saying goodbye, did he hear what I said?" Guanyin stood in the woods thinking. "Scissors, paper, rock!" "Ha! It's a pig again!" the monkey shouted happily. "What a shame! Why me again?" The pig walked up the mountain with a look of displeasure. "Bajie, do you want to patrol the mountains well?" Tang Seng lay leisurely leaning on his luggage. After walking for a while, Bajie suddenly pondered: "I'm a marshal, and I'm higher than a general in terms of position. Why do you want me to patrol the mountains? Wait a minute, let me think... I have it!" Bajie walked back again. "Pig head! Are there fairies?" the monkey asked. "Yes." The pig replied with certainty. "how many?" "have no idea." "What's the meaning?" "When I was patrolling the mountain, I found a shining golden hole called 'Gold Mine Golden Cave'..." "Gold Mine? Golden Cave?" Drifting was a little strange again. "I took a look, and it was resplendent and colorful inside, but I couldn't see the face of the monster." "Then what should I do?" Tang Seng said, "I don't know the details of the monster, and I always feel uneasy." "I'm not going to ask the monkey to go." "I want to protect the monk, I can't leave." "Hey hey haha... I'm here!" Drifting found a big cloth bag and a shovel from nowhere, "Don't go, I'll come!" A gust of wind blew past everyone, and Drifting disappeared. "Pfft! So fast!" The pig patted the dust off his clothes. "Rotten pig's head! This must be your trick." "Wrong! It's not a trick, it's resourcefulness." "But... can Monk Sha do it?" Tang Seng wondered. "As long as there is gold, he will do," replied the pig. "Ah—" Not far away came the scream of Drifting Monk. "Oops! Something went wrong!" Everyone hurried to the direction of the voice. Pingdingshan Lotus Cave. "Hahaha! The eldest brother has been caught." Yinjiao ran into the cave excitedly. "What?" Jin Jiao wondered, "What big brother are you arresting? Someone robbed me of my seat?" "No, no, Tang Seng, Zhu Bajie, and Bailongma were captured." "Did you fall into the trap I set in front of the cave?" "Yeah, yeah! One of them was holding a stick, one was waving a nail palladium, and the other was carrying a tin staff, they rushed over 'howling', but they all fell in! Haha..." "Wait, Monkey King is missing!" "He jumped up and ran." Yinjiao drank a glass of wine, "It's okay, kill Tang Seng first, and settle this matter." Yinjiao flashed out the Seven Star Sword, ready to strike. "Wait a minute," Bajie stood up, "I have something to say." "Why do people always stand up at critical moments?" "Because I'm the protagonist." "Then you say what you want, and I'll kill mine." Yinjiao stabbed down with a single sword strike. "Ah! Wait a minute!" Tang Seng screamed. The entire Lotus Cave shook amid screams, and everyone covered their ears. "You... what are you doing?" Jin Jiao asked with lingering fear. "Cough! He is the protagonist, you should ask for his opinion." "Ah! I've had enough! Tie them up first, and the monk hangs him up!" Silver Horn shouted hysterically. "Little San, so you are hanging here too." Bajie looked at Drifting Monk beside him. "No..." Drifting whispered. "Nothing?" "There is no gold...and no colorful lights..." Bajie was startled, "I'm sorry! I hurt you." His heart was filled with infinite guilt. In the evening, monkeys were also caught. "You lost? Monkey." asked the pig. "No, they tied me here with this 'golden rope' while I was watching the sunset." "Is it evening now?" "No, when I came in, the sunset had already set, and the east was already a silver sky." "Little monster! Little monster!" Bajie suddenly shouted. "Here we come!" A little demon rushed forward with a knife in hand, "Should I kill you first? Okay." "No, I want to go out and let the wind go." "Night is not the time to let the wind go." "But I want to see the moon." "There are cave rules, and prisoners are not allowed to be released privately." "I just want to see the moon!" Bajie raised his voice. "You don't need to look at the moon anymore." Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao came in: "Go to the underworld to greet the King of Hades!" "I just want to look at the moon." Bajie suddenly became gloomy. "Kill! No one will be left alive!" "Why don't you even agree to this minimum requirement! I just want to take a look at the moon! Why are you so cruel?!" With a loud roar, the rope snapped, Zhu Bajie showed a hideous face, and everyone and the monsters were frightened. Zhu Bajie jumped on the ground and said "Get up!" A big hole opened in the ground of Lianhua Cave. Bajie raised his hands to the sky, and another "shock!" The whole Pingdingshan began to shake violently.In the Lotus Cave, the pillars collapsed and the walls cracked, sand and stones flew, and the chaos was in full swing. "Quick! Get my 'Suet Jade Bottle'!" "Bottle... the bottle was shattered!" "Then take my 'Purple Gold Red Gourd'!" "coming!" As soon as Jin Jiao lifted the gourd, he called out, "Zhu Bajie!" "Huh! I am... Marshal Tianpeng!" Bajie slapped him, and Jinjiao was thrown heavily against the wall. "Run! Run away, everyone!" Silver Horn made a wise choice. "Ah! My lotus cave!" Yinjiao cried out in a crying voice. "Keng!" A stick hit him on the head. "Don't call!" Wukong said. "Found it!" Drifting came from among the gravel. "Okay, you brothers have caught them all," said the monkey. "It's not them, it's Zijin Gourd. Hehehaha..." The monkey fell to the ground. "Clang"!The stick hit Drifting Monk's head: "Be serious, okay?!" "Golden Horn is here." Bajie dragged the fainted Golden Horn from the pile of gravel. "Brother!" "Stop screaming, he's passed out." "hateful!" "You are not a mortal monster, and a mortal monster would not have such a mysterious artifact." Wukong said. "Hmph! Why did I tell you!" "Clang"!Another sound. "Did you tell me?" "I...we are Huo Fanzi from Lihen Tiandousita Palace." Yinjiao said in a tearful voice. "Did the Taishang Laojun tell you to go down to the lower realm?" Wukong asked. "No, we went down to the world privately." "Then who is in charge of you?" Bajie asked in a deep voice. "...We are the king of the mountain, no one will control us." "Keng!" "Oh!" "Tell the truth!" Bajie shouted. "Return..." Yinjiao was about to speak when suddenly dark clouds rolled in the sky, covering the sky and blocking out the sun, and thunder struck. "What's going on?" Everyone looked up at the sky. "It's windy! It's raining, pack up your clothes!" Tang Seng shouted immediately. "Wow!" Bajie said disdainfully. "Don't..." Yinjiao said tremblingly, "Don't kill me...I'm still young...I still want to enjoy youth...enjoy life...I don't want to die...don't..." "There is a monster, very heavy!" Wukong held the stick in his hand very vigilantly. Everyone holds magic weapons and protects Tang Seng in the center. After a while, suddenly the dark clouds cleared, golden light descended, and an old man in Taoist robes walked out of the light ball. "Too high?" "Marshal Tianpeng, salute." Taishang Laojun saluted. "Old officer, what's the matter with the dark cloud?" The monkey stepped forward and asked. "It's a group of evildoers. They only dispersed because of the poverty and went west." "Then what are you doing in the lower realm?" "I..." Without waiting for Laojun's answer, the silver horn grabbed Laojun's feet crying, "Father, you are finally here! I'm so worried! Why didn't you come sooner! Woo..." "Sinister! I only teach you Kunlun Mountain in the lower realm for an hour, and pick some elixir for me, but you went there for three days and stayed in the mortal world for three years! See how I deal with you when I go back!" "Old gentleman, be polite." "Holy Monk, be polite." "Old gentleman, children are ignorant, they are just being naughty for a while, please don't punish them physically! Now it is clearly stipulated that corporal punishment is a crime!" "..." "I see, I see, thank you, holy monk!" Laojun was about to take away the golden and silver horns. "Wait a minute." Bajie stopped him, "I have something to ask him." He pointed to Yinjiao. "What else do you ask? Don't hit me again?" "What did you say before you were dying?" "I... I'm still young, I still want to be young, and I still want to enjoy life." "Do you know what 'youth' is?" "Youth is about enjoying life." "Clang"! "Oh! You hit me again!" "Is there anyone who enjoys life like this?" Bajie exclaimed. "Occupying mountains as king, robbing and eating people, is this what you call 'youth'?" "Then what exactly do you want?" Silver Horn completely collapsed. "Youth is not understood in this way!" "Then how do you understand it?" "In a word, youth is..." Bajie put on a passionate pose and said, "Enjoy life." "boom"!All were knocked down, and so were the horses. "This...isn't this the same?" Silver Horn really wanted to cry but had no tears. "Clang"! "I mean, youth is to enjoy the life of infinite joy, infinite beauty, and infinite happiness." "Marshal..." Yinjiao looked at Bajie in surprise. "Go back and understand slowly!" "When they go back, they won't go down to the lower realm again." Taishang Laojun said. "My lord, you should let them know more about this world." "Master? Oh, you're still so rude, Canopy." "Heh, when did you respect us young people?" Bajie sneered. Taishang Laojun snorted coldly, held the golden and silver horns and looked away from Hentian. "Fulfill your mission seriously! The future will become more and more difficult." Lion Camel Ridge and Lion Camel Cave. In the hall, the group of monsters with swords and flags are in strict order, fully dressed.There are three demon kings sitting on the top of the hall. "Third brother, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao were defeated by the seventh brother." "normal." "Third brother, what should we do next?" "It doesn't matter, there are still ambushes on the second side." "Didn't it mean that if Jinjiao and Yinjiao were defeated, they would take advantage of the situation and kill Tang Seng? Sixth Brother." "Just as I was about to do it, suddenly old guy Li came down to collect the golden horns and silver horns. If the third and fourth brothers were there at that time, then the matter would have been settled." "It's not time for us to do it yet. Is there any movement from Tathagata?" "His two venerables were injured by people from Wuzhuang Temple, and there is no movement for the time being." "The quieter you are, the more you have to watch closely. Tathagata is very cunning, and you don't know when to make a move." "Then Big Brother and Fifth Brother..." "Leave them alone. Since they don't want to work with us, as long as they don't spoil my good deeds, let them go." "By the way, how is the gathering of monsters going? Sixth brother." "Fourth brother knows, all the notices have been issued, and we only wait for the moment when the demons gather." "Okay, good, hum..."
