The journey to the heavens starts from the underground station

"Can't get on the stage!"

Jiuling Yuansheng raised his hand and twitched. The nearest Huang Shijing was beaten and staggered, but he was still not convinced, covering the back of his head, and defended: "Old Ancestor, what's wrong with me? Grandson, you have always been obedient !"

"I asked you to prepare some meeting gifts, that's it?"

Seeing the anger of Jiuling Yuansheng, the seven lion spirits retreated immediately. Looking at the scene in front of them, Jiuling Yuansheng sighed leisurely.

The seven lion spirits were really obedient, and prepared some meeting gifts according to the customs of the human race.

Food and cloth, dried meat and salted fish, such as Huang Shijing, who sent the little demon to the market early in the morning, bought seven or eight pigs and sheep!It's still humming now!Of course, not only Huang Shijing's men and Snow Lion's little demons were driving the animals, but they also carried two cages of chickens!
The most amazing thing is, I don't know that the seven or eight little demons under the hapless grandson have made a bunch of gongs, drums and suona, and are eager to try it. Will they want to play chui da da later?
Basically, it is prepared according to the standards of visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year!

"Old ancestors, grandchildren, you are poor!"

"That's right, ancestor, you don't allow your grandsons to rob houses and plunder the human race, so you can get some money by relying on your little demons to work for others!"

"Old Ancestor, my grandson is so poor that he can't even support his little monsters. Poor grandson's Leopard Head Mountain, all the wild animals on the mountain have been wiped out! Just this pig and sheep, or the silver taels that my grandson usually saves. Bought it!"

It's okay if Jiuling Yuansheng didn't ask, but when he asked, the seven grandchildren burst into tears and became poor.

"Blame me! It's for your own good to let you keep yourselves in peace and not learn from other monster races, but it also makes you so petty."

Jiuling Yuansheng sighed again. He was in a hurry this morning. He used magic to capture seven grandchildren and a casual little demon. He drove over after driving the demon wind. He didn't have time to check. Now he has arrived outside the city. The Great Sage is on the opposite side, and it's too late for a temporary replacement!
Give these things to Da Luo Jinxian as a meeting gift, what a mess! ?Moreover, the learners are monks!These seven useless things make a bunch of livestock!
"Forget it, take your, uh... presents, and follow me, Patriarch!"

Jiuling Yuansheng can't help it, they are all here, can't let the grandchildren go back and replace them?Besides, sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away, the gift is light and the affection is heavy!I have heard that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is open-minded by nature and easy to make friends, so I don't think he would blame him.

At that moment, he gave an order helplessly, led his seven grandchildren, and a group of little demons with "gifts", and walked towards the Buddhist scriptures in a mighty way.

"Wukong, I think the monster in front of you isn't looking for trouble?"

Li Yu saw it clearly, and asked uncertainly.

What kind of clothes are those monsters walking over on the opposite side!

Agricultural heavy metal, rural killing Matt?

Lion spirit, with yellow hair, wearing ordinary clothes, followed by a little demon, driving pigs and sheep, carrying a chicken coop, carrying a bag, and blowing the suona!

Just like this, Li Yu would never believe that he was here to make trouble!
How could any monster race have such virtues!It looks like he just came back from the fair!
Wukong in mid-air also let go of his guard a little bit, lowered his cloud head, and stood in front of Li Yu.

A moment later, Jiuling Yuansheng led the crowd and stopped three feet away from the four masters and apprentices.

As soon as the seven lion spirits saw the place, they waved their hands without waiting for Jiuling Yuansheng's order, and the little demons under their command began to unload the goods.

The corners of Li Yu's mouth twitched as he watched.

Now Li Yu is even more convinced that this group of lion spirits is definitely not here to make trouble!
Sure enough, Jiuling Yuansheng arched his hands and said: "I am Emperor Qinghua of Dongji Miaoyan Palace, the seat of Jiuling Yuansheng under Taiyi Save Ku Tianzun, I have long admired the name of Master Sanzang and the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Master Zhi and the great sage came to the land of Yuhua, and specially prepared a small gift to pay a visit."

After finishing speaking, Jiuling Yuansheng smiled awkwardly, turned half of his body, pointed to the seven lion spirits behind him and introduced: "These seven are the grandchildren of the old man, they are the lions, the lions, and the elephants. Lion, Yellow Lion, Bai Ze, Fuli, Snow Lion and Seven Lions."

The seven lions also looked solemn and bowed.

"Uh……"

Li Yu was a little dazed. Although he just guessed that Jiuling Yuansheng was not here to make trouble, he really didn't expect that they came to visit him. Although they are a group of kind monsters, but... this little monster is rushing to carry Zhu Yangkun, are you here to be funny?
Well, reach out and don't hit the smiley man.

Li Yu arched his hands: "Amitabha, the poor monk Tang Sanzang, pay homage to the Nine Spirits Demon Saint."

Jiuling Yuansheng is the Daluo Jinxian. According to the tradition of the Yaozu, he has broken away from the category of the Demon King and should be honored as the Demon Saint.

Although Wukong didn't know the purpose of the sudden visit by Jiuling Yuansheng, Da Luo, who had never had any contact with him, but this monkey loves making friends the most by nature, so he also bowed his hands and agreed.

But it frightened the Yuhuawang family standing next to them.

Jiuling Yuanshengtuo's family came to visit with their mouths. Since it was good intentions, Li Yu couldn't shirk it, so he changed his itinerary immediately and borrowed the palace from King Yuhua to entertain a group of lion demons.

King Yuhua naturally agreed, and hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare the banquet and tidy up.

As soon as they heard that there was a feast to eat, the little demons brought by the seven lion spirits were overjoyed. They drove the pigs and sheep into the city happily, but scared the people of the city, thinking that the monsters had come in.

The wine and meat are ready, and the cups are exchanged, accompanied by King Yuhua, entertaining all the monsters.

Jiuling Yuansheng also made it clear that he just wanted to make friends with the Buddhist scriptures group. Li Yu naturally agreed to make friends with this group of monsters with a history and morality. Many friends have many paths!Maybe it will come in handy in the future—underground transportation stations can pass through swords, who knows if we will encounter a world derived from Journey to the West in the future!
What's more, Jiuling Yuansheng really gave a generous gift, not the seven lion spirits and those pigs and sheep who can't hurt the table, but the top-level cultivation method, the Yuqing Immortal Jue that explained the teaching, plus a five-thunder method!

King Yuhua is also considered to have gained a little. He saw with his own eyes that these lion spirits are different from ordinary monsters. They are all good fairies who abide by the law. I also drank a few more glasses of wine, and my brain got hot, and I invited those seven demon kings to become the worshipers of Yuhua County, so as to keep them safe and not be bullied by foreign monsters. Never short of money!
After a meal of wine, all parties have gained something, and they returned happily.

The next day, King Yuhua, who was grateful to the four masters and apprentices, left Yuhua County and went west again.

This walk is a winter, and after the beginning of spring, it is warm and cold, and far away, I have arrived at a big city.

There is a hill in front of the city, and a temple is built on the hill, with pavilions, towers, pavilions, pedestrians, and pilgrims in an endless stream, which is very prosperous.

Li Yu is a fake monk, and he is not good at Buddhist scriptures, but he is too lazy to read them. Therefore, when he encounters temples along the way, he avoids them from a distance, so as not to talk to those bald donkeys—not to mention There are always a lot of things to do in the temples on the way to learn scriptures!For example, Guanyin Temple, Baolin Temple, Zhiyuan Temple, Jinguang Temple, and Zhenhai Zenlin Temple.

Li Yu is well aware of this temple now. According to the process of learning scriptures, after passing Yuhua County, it is Jinping Mansion, and the temple outside the city is naturally Ciyun Temple.

Li Yu took his three apprentices and wanted to avoid going directly to the city. Unexpectedly, as soon as they passed the foot of the mountain, a sage monk came down and rushed to catch up with the four masters and apprentices.

But he was taken aback by the appearance of the three Wukongs!
It wasn't until Li Yu explained the origin of the Buddhist scriptures gang that the Zhike monk was still in shock, and tremblingly introduced the reason for blocking the road.

It turned out that it coincided with the Shangyuan Festival, and Ciyun Temple opened its doors for convenience. Those who entered the temple to offer incense would have a meal, and the monks who passed by were asked to place an order for a few days to talk about the Dharma together. Silver and clothes.

"There is no shortage of money, but it is rare that someone has good intentions. Master, let's go to the temple to have fun and try some vegetarian dishes in the temple."

Li Yu hasn't said yet that after hearing the monk Zhike's introduction of the famous vegetarian restaurant in this temple, Bajie couldn't hold back anymore. He was greedy and loved food, so he immediately begged to go to the temple for a walk.

"Forget it! Then trouble the Master to lead the way." Li Yu thought for a while, and agreed, there are no monsters in this Ciyun Temple, and it doesn't hurt to go there.

As for the catastrophe in Jinping Mansion, it was the three rhinoceros spirits who love to eat sesame oil, pretending to be a Buddha, and tricking the people of Jinping Mansion into offering crispy sesame oil every year, and the three rhinoceros spirits will keep the place in good weather.

He lied to his people, I took my scriptures, if the rhinoceros didn't come to provoke him, Li Yu didn't bother to call the door, but if the rhinoceros didn't have eyes, then three rhinoceros horns must be added to the collection in the portable space!
For rhino horns of this quality, if you get some bezoar from the Bull Demon King, some musk from Penglai Island, and make Angong Niuhuang Pills, you can jump up on the spot after eating it, right?

Under the leadership of Zhike monk, the four masters and apprentices entered the mountain gate and entered the Ciyun Temple. When they heard about the visitor from the Eastern Land Tang Dynasty, the host did not dare to neglect, and led a group of temple leaders to welcome him out.

The temple coincided with a lecture meeting, and monks from all over the world gathered here. The host of Ciyun Temple invited Li Yu to speak on the stage, and Li Yu dealt with it with the Heart Sutra he got from Zen Master Wuchao. According to the tradition of the government, the lamp was tested last night, and until tomorrow's Shangyuan Festival, sesame oil was offered to the Buddha, and the lamp was not turned off until the [-]th or [-]th.

Wukong was curious and asked the host, and the host briefly explained the offering of sesame oil, with a pious expression, and invited the four masters and apprentices to the Jinping Mansion to watch the lantern festival tomorrow night.

"Master, the Buddha that the host talked about, comes with a gust of wind, and goes with a gust of wind, roll up the sesame oil and leave." After a full vegetarian meal, the four masters and apprentices went to the guest room. After thinking about it, Wukong put forward his own opinion: " This act of teasing the wind does not sound like a Buddha, but rather a monster's method, besides, my old grandson has never heard of any Buddha in Lingshan who likes sesame oil."

"Brother Monkey, what do you care about him?" Bajie groaned, went to the bed, patted his stomach, and complained: "Even if he is a monster, he never provoked us! He took the sesame oil to protect one side." Good weather, fair business, no deceit, you have the time to meddle in this business! If you mess with us, you can beat us to death!"

Wukong was complained, laughed and scolded and grabbed Bajie's ear as if he wanted to hit him. During the play, Li Yu told the situation of the rhinoceros in Jinping Mansion and his plan, and the three apprentices naturally agreed.

On the second day, the host of Ciyun Temple came to invite Li Yu to preside over the Buddhist meeting in Jinping Mansion. It turned out that the offering of crispy sesame oil was originally organized by Ciyun Temple.

Li Yu was also curious about what is the sesame oil that can make monsters greedy, so he agreed, took three apprentices, and followed the monks into the city.

The city is already crowded with people. At night, when night falls, all kinds of lights are lit up, and the streets in the city are bright red and bright. There are countless people, snack sellers, jugglers, one after another, all the way from the city gate. line up to the Golden Light Bridge in the city.

The four masters and apprentices were led by the monk of Ciyun Temple, and they were separated from the ordinary people in charge. They were close to each other and stood beside the Golden Lamp Bridge.

On the Golden Lamp Bridge, three golden lamps were lit, and the wicks were inserted into the vats. The vats were gilded copper vats, and there was a circle of exquisite attics made of fine gold wires on the outside, which was really beautiful; when we got closer, the lights flickered , It smells delicious.

Wukong, who turned into a human, jumped from mid-air to the front of the vat, and took a closer look. It turned out that the three-port vat was full of sesame oil, and the wick was burning with this oil.

"This is the crispy sesame oil?" Wukong took advantage of no one's attention, and made a trick, hooked his finger, dipped some sesame oil and tasted it, his eyes lit up instantly.

This thing tastes like an indescribable fragrance!When Wukong disrupted the Pantao Festival, he also ate the dragon liver and phoenix marrow in the heavenly court. This sesame oil is no worse than the dishes in the heavenly court!
Master still has some white deer meat, if it is fried with this sesame oil...

The monkey suddenly changed his mind: Anyway, there are only three swindling rhinoceros, and after the rhinoceros gets the sesame oil, my grandson will follow up and have a good "talk" with them, and divide them into two tanks.

How dare the Rhinoceros not give us the title of Monkey King?
Over there, Li Yu was also curious, and asked the abbot of Ciyun Temple to know the origin of the crispy sesame oil.

It turns out that this oil, named sesame oil, is not produced from sesame seeds, but from a kind of styrax collected from styrax. The oil extracted from styrax is made by complicated methods.

Calculated in human money, every tael of this oil is worth two taels of silver, and every catty is worth 32 taels of silver.There are three lamps on the Golden Lamp Bridge, and there are 8000 catties of sesame oil in each cylinder under the lamps. The three cylinders have a total of [-] catties, and a total of [-] taels of silver.

This can be considered a luxury!
The three rhinoceros will enjoy it!
Knowing about the sesame oil, Wukong suppressed his thoughts for the time being, and the four master and apprentice walked from the Golden Lamp Bridge to the market, made a detour, and returned to the Golden Lamp Bridge. It was almost midnight.

The monks of Ciyun Temple had already counted the time and estimated that it was almost time for the "Buddha" to collect the sesame oil, so they hurriedly invited the four masters and apprentices to take shelter in the attic beside the bridge.

In the attic, Li Yu leaned on the railing and watched from a distance. Bajie and Drifting took out the rakes and treasure sticks, and stood on the left and right sides; Wukong used the excuse of preventing goblins from attacking, and stood on the roof of the attic with a golden cudgel in one hand and a divine pestle in the other.

Not long after, there was a whistling wind in the air, which blew out an unknown number of lanterns, frightening the passers-by on the street to scatter to avoid them; dark clouds floated in, blocking the moonlight.

Wukong opened his eyes and looked into the dark cloud.

In the clouds, there are three solemn "Buddhas" sitting upright, with golden light all over their bodies, but the piercing eyes can see through the emptiness, and under the body of the Buddha, there are three clear goblins!

"My grandson's business is here!"
