Journey to the Heavens from the Mountain God

Chapter 222 Mrs. White Bones
Master Xuanzang and his disciples fled Wuzhuang Temple in a hurry. After a month's long journey, eating wind and drinking dew, they left the boundary of Wuzhuang Temple and came to Baihuling.

It wasn't until this moment that Xuanzang's tense mind relaxed, and his whole body suddenly collapsed to the ground, only feeling that his stomach was unbearably hungry and he didn't have any strength.

Xuanzang quietly looked at the three apprentices, Sun Wukong was a little less rebellious, and a little more high-spirited fighting spirit, as if he meant to be reborn.

Zhu Bajie, on the other hand, lost a little bit of sobriety in the world and a little bit more of a sinking dream, and he looked completely stupid.

As for Sha Wujing, it was a bit less pure in Buddhism and way, and a bit more magical, showing faint signs of being possessed by demons.

Obviously, although the catastrophe of Wuzhuang Temple has passed, it has left a deep impression on their masters and apprentices, making Wukong and the others more thirsty for power and practicing harder.

Xuanzang's eyes swept away, and finally stayed on Sun Wukong, only to hear him say slowly: "Wukong, I am hungry in the belly of the teacher, you go there to melt some vegetarian food and eat!"

Sun Wukong looked at the surrounding mountains and said with a wry smile: "Master, in this half-mountain, there is no village in front, no shop in the back, and no place to buy if you have money. Where can I tell my old grandson to make a living?"

Xuanzang felt unhappy when he heard the words, and cursed: "You monkey! I think you were pressed under the Five Fingers Mountain by the Buddha. You were hungry for iron pills and thirsty for copper juice. I rescued you. Disciple. Now..."

Before Xuanzang finished speaking, Wukong hurriedly said: "Master, don't blame me, don't ask for words, my old grandson will find someone to go to Huazhai."

I saw Monkey King jumping up to the clouds, putting on the awning with his hands, and looking around.But the Westward Journey Road is already sparsely populated, and there are not even half a family in a fierce place like Baihuling, so naturally there is no place for Huazhai.

After watching carefully, Wukong found that there was a high mountain hundreds of miles away to the south, and there was a peach grove facing the sun on that mountain, which was bright red, but ripe mountain peaches.

Wukong pressed the cloud head and reported the Taolin incident to Xuanzang.Xuanzang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and repeatedly urged Wukong to pick peaches.

Wukong heard the words, took out the bowl from the burden, set up the auspicious light, and went straight to Nanshan to pick peaches.

This auspicious light has alarmed the owner of Baihuling. Looking at Xuanzang's figure, Mrs. Bone Bone brings all the past events to her mind, and her affection for Jin Chanzi is quietly entrusted to Xuanzang.

The bone lady transformed into Bai Jingjing, dressed in red, graceful and charming.

Holding a green sand jar in her left hand and a green magnetic bottle in her right, she went straight towards Xuanzang.

The moment Xuanzang saw Mrs. Bone, his heart beat violently, as if some image was about to emerge from the bottom of his heart.

Although the woman in red claimed to be a village girl, her appearance and temperament were truly stunning, especially the bright red dress, which was so dazzling!
"Elder, I have fragrant rice in the green pot and fried gluten in the green pot. I came here for no other reason, because I also vowed to be a fast monk."

Mrs. Bone was holding the food basket, but her eyes were fixed on Xuanzang, as if she was expecting his response.

However, Xuanzang was in a state of confusion at this moment, he closed his eyes tightly, did not even dare to lift his head, and silently recited the Heart Sutra taught by Zen Master Wuchao in his heart.

In the past, as long as he recited the Heart Sutra silently, Xuanzang would enter a state where his mind was as still as water, as if he had been completely enlightened, and all troubles would go away with the wind.

But today, the Heart Sutra seemed to have lost its effect, the more Xuanzang recited silently, the stronger the throbbing in his heart.

Seeing Xuanzang's eyes closed tightly, his brows furrowed tightly, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans kept falling on his forehead, he was obviously extremely flustered.

After Zhu Bajie practiced the Great Dream Heart Sutra, he has been in a dreamlike state, but his spiritual sense is several times sharper than usual.

The moment Mrs. Bone approached, Zhu Bajie sensed her breath.Since Mrs. Bone didn't exude the slightest malice, Zhu Bajie didn't intend to make a move.

But seeing Xuanzang's reaction, Zhu Bajie's heart skipped a beat, as if he understood something.There is definitely an extraordinary story between master Xuanzang and this bone lady.

One is a Buddhist monk and the other is a pink skull. The emotional entanglement between the two makes Zhu Bajie feel a strange excitement.

Zhu Bajie opened his sleepy eyes and said softly: "Master, since this female Bodhisattva sincerely worships the Buddha, how can we live up to her good intentions!"

Zhu Bajie's voice was very soft, but it seemed to give Xuanzang a different kind of courage. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him carefully.

The woman was dressed in red, with an unpredictable smile on her face, giving off an eerie feeling.

But Xuanzang didn't seem to notice it. He looked at Mrs. Bone with extremely gentle eyes, and even couldn't help walking towards Mrs. Bone without the slightest precaution.

The smile on Mrs. Bone's face became more and more wanton, and there was a faint cold light in her eyes, showing even more murderous intent, and her goal was directed at Xuanzang.

At this moment, Sun Wukong's angry voice suddenly came from the air: "Monster, don't even think about hurting my old grandson's master, watch the stick!"

Before the words fell, the figure of Monkey King stood in front of Xuanzang, and the Coiling Dragon Stick in his hand hit Mrs. Bones on the head.

A shrill scream sounded, and the red-clothed woman transformed by Mrs. Bones fell to the ground, blood staining the ground.

Xuanzang's heart suddenly clenched, and an inexplicable sadness swept over him.He said in a complicated tone: "Why did you beat him to death?"

Sun Wukong didn't notice Xuanzang's strangeness at all, but said very proudly: "This evildoer wants to kill Master, so naturally she can't keep her!"

A nameless anger suddenly surged in Xuanzang's heart, he suppressed the anger, and said to Monkey King: "You go, I don't have you as an apprentice!"

Sun Wukong was taken aback when he heard the words, and quickly said: "At the beginning, my grandson made a disturbance in the Heavenly Palace and was suppressed by the Buddha at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain. It was Master who rescued me from the predicament. Such a great kindness has never been repaid, how could my grandson just go away!"

Sun Wukong's voice was like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, which made the distraught Xuanzang recover a little bit of mood, and agreed to give Wukong another chance.

Seeing Xuanzang angrily walking at the front of the line, Wukong's eyes were full of surprise. He always felt that something was wrong with Xuanzang today, but he couldn't tell what was wrong!
"What's wrong with the old monk today, he seems to be a different person." Sun Wukong asked puzzled.

While Bajie watched coldly, he saw a lot of clues.He is a werewolf who has experienced vicissitudes of life, so he naturally understands why Xuanzang is like this?

"Brother Monkey, you have practiced since childhood, how do you know the mystery of the relationship between men and women? This old monk is clearly emotional!" Zhu Bajie said in a faint tone.

"Impossible, the old monk is not that kind of person!" Wukong retorted immediately.

Xuanzang is rigid and serious, but Wukong knows it very well.How could the word "love" have anything to do with him!

"Who said it was his love? The old monk has been reincarnated for ten lives. Who knows which life caused the love debt? Can he not be angry if you killed his lover?" Zhu Bajie nuzzled.

"It doesn't matter, my old grandson can't just sit back and watch this monk be murdered by evildoers!"

The more Wukong listened, the more confused he became. In the end, he had to choose the method he was most familiar with and cut the mess quickly.

And Monk Sha acted like a transparent person throughout the whole process, just silently carrying the burden and following Xuanzang closely.Only the magic that flashed in his eyes from time to time showed his unusualness!

But it is said that Mrs. Bone's body was beaten to death by Wukong, but her soul escaped from her shell and returned to the cave safely.

I saw the real face of Mrs. Bone, just like a crystal-clear jade bone, with long black hair growing out of the skull, resting on the cold ground, and the dark blue flames burning in the eye sockets.

Mrs. Bones walked into the cave. On both sides of the cave were a row of potholes, and a corpse stood in each pothole.These corpses seemed to be alive, standing quietly in the pit, the scene was very strange.

Walking through the pothole, there is a woman's boudoir inside, decorated with red silk and satin, which looks extremely warm, and it is a bit out of tune with the environment in the cave.

Mrs. Bone wandered into it and sat down on the dressing table.On the dressing table is a bronze mirror surrounded by simple patterns. It seems that it has been around for some years, and it is very vicissitudes and simplicity.

Pale bone claws slowly brushed across the mirror, and a beautiful woman's face was reflected in the mirror, which was the appearance of Bai Jingjing.

Looking at the beautiful figure in the mirror, Madam Bone envied: "Bai Jingjing, you will always be so beautiful!"

"Give up! Jin Chanzi will be sad if she knows that I have become like this!" Bai Jingjing in the mirror said strangely.

"Bai Jingjing, don't deceive yourself, I saw that monk, the monk you miss so much, I put on your favorite red dress, but that monk has already forgotten you!"

Mrs. Bone said in a low tone, and the more she spoke, the more angry she became: "How could he forget you, how dare he forget you, it is unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable!"

An inexplicable sadness appeared on Bai Jingjing's face in the mirror, and blood and tears dripped from her eyes, staining the entire mirror surface with blood red.

At this time, the Bone Lady said in an extremely tempting tone: "Give up! As long as you and I are integrated into one body, the Bone Bodhisattva view will be great. At that time, that monk will kneel at our feet devoutly."

Bai Jingjing in the mirror shook her head, and murmured: "It's good to forget! Jin Chanzi is so funny, so compassionate, so kind. Seeing me like this, he will definitely be sad, and I don't want him to be sad! "

Mrs. Bone roared frantically: "For a heartless person, abandoning the Dao of Longevity, abandoning the Dao Fruit of the Demon Bodhisattva, is it worth it?"

In the bronze mirror, Bai Jingjing's eyes were full of longing, and she said with a silly smile: "You don't understand, this is love!"

"I don't understand, but I am you!" Mrs. Bone gently touched her spine with her bone claws, and there was a line of small words engraved there: Mrs. Bone.

In the bronze mirror, Bai Jingjing shook her head, and retorted: "You are not me, you are the magic in that beauty picture, a new life conceived with the help of my bone body!"

"Although I am not you, you are not Bai Jingjing either. You are just Bai Jingjing's obsession. As long as I kill that monk, you will have no basis for existence, and my Bone Bodhisattva view can still be accomplished."

After Mrs. Bone finished speaking, a burst of mana gushed out, directly sealing Bai Jingjing's obsession, and Bai Jingjing in the bronze mirror also disappeared.

In the beginning, in order not to make Jin Chanzi sad, and because she did not want to turn into a bone demon, Bai Jingjing gave up the Avenue of Longevity and chose to sit in Baihuling.

But the beautiful figure was tainted with the magic of the demon lord Bo Xun, and became very strange.Even though Bai Jingjing had died, the Bone Bodhisattva concept contained in it did not stop functioning.

Hundreds of years later, with the help of Bai Jingjing's skeleton, the magic in the picture of the beauty was resurrected and turned into the current Lady Bone.

However, although Bai Jingjing was dead, her love for Jin Chanzi was too persistent, and it turned into an obsession to stay on the bones.

This obsession is too tenacious, and no matter what methods Mrs. Bone uses, she still cannot erase this obsession.

This also led to the failure of Mrs. Bone's view of the Bone Bodhisattva, and it was even more difficult to improve her Taoism and practice.

But it is not easy to let Bai Jingjing's obsession dissipate.To untie the bell, the person who tied it must be needed. Only Jin Chanzi can dispel Bai Jingjing's obsession.

Ever since she knew that Jin Chanzi's reincarnation would pass through Baihu Ridge, Mrs. Bone has been staying here. No matter how the years change, she will wait here, waiting for the opportunity to come.

"Jin Chanzi, this matter is not so easy." Mrs. Bone said softly.

Afterwards, Mrs. Bones walked out of the room and carefully looked at the corpses standing on both sides, like a woman shopping, carefully choosing her favorite clothes.

In the end, Mrs. Bone chose the corpse of an old woman, and she walked towards the old woman slowly, blending directly into the corpse of the old woman, as naturally as putting on a piece of clothing.

After a while, the old woman's eyes began to roll, she raised her hands, moved her feet, and then smiled with satisfaction: "Jin Chanzi, you can't escape!"

However, Mrs. Bone obviously underestimated Sun Wukong's supernatural powers, and was directly seen through by Huoyan Jinxing, and her head was broken again by the coiling dragon stick, only Yuanshen escaped.

Xuanzang was already upset, but when he saw that Wukong didn't listen to his advice again and beat an old woman to death, he cursed him all over his head, and then opened his mouth to expel Wukong again.

But under Wukong's sincere plea, Xuanzang decided to give Wukong another chance, and Wukong nodded in agreement.

When Mrs. Bone turned into an old man again, Wukong endured in every possible way, but the anger in his heart became more and more intense.

In the end, under the various provocations of Mrs. Bones, Wukong couldn't hold back after all, and beat her to death with a blow to the head.

Wukong, who suffered losses twice in a row, sealed off the surrounding space before the attack this time, preventing Mrs. Bone from escaping.Mrs. Bones had nowhere to escape, so in desperation she had to show her true nature.

"Amitabha!" Xuanzang closed his eyes the moment he saw Mrs. Bone, and proclaimed the Buddha's name.

"Why doesn't the monk dare to open his eyes to look at me? It's in vain that I, Bai Jingjing, are so infatuated with you!" Mrs. Bone said sarcastically.

"Bai Jingjing?" When Xuanzang heard this name, his heart ached like a knife.The name seemed important to him, but he couldn't remember it anyway.

Xuanzang looked suspiciously at Mrs. Bone in front of him, and asked eagerly, "Tell me, who is Bai Jingjing?"

At this moment, Xuanzang is no longer the holy monk of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, but a mortal with flesh and blood and feelings.

"Want to know? Come closer and I'll tell you."

Looking at Xuanzang who was getting closer and closer to her, Madam Bone showed a cruel smile on her face, she said softly: "You should ask Bai Jingjing yourself!"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Bone stretched out her bone claws, her five fingers began to grow, and she grabbed Xuanzang's heart.

"Monster, how dare you!"

Seeing this situation, Wukong couldn't bear it any longer, he raised his coiling dragon stick and hit him on the head.

A trace of panic flashed in Mrs. Bone's eyes. She knew that only by killing Xuanzang, and the Bone Bodhisattva attained great success, would she have a chance of survival.

But after all, she underestimated Wukong. Although her speed was fast, she was still inferior to Wukong.The moment her bone claws touched Xuanzang, Wukong smashed her head with a stick, and she fell on the spot with her consciousness dissipated.

As soon as Mrs. Bone's consciousness dissipated, Bai Jingjing's obsession emerged, and her body of bones instantly turned into Bai Jingjing's appearance.

She stretched out her hand to touch Xuanzang's face, and said with a light smile, "Jin Chanzi, I'm so happy to die in your arms!"

As soon as the words fell, Bai Jingjing's body turned into ashes and disappeared into Xuanzang's arms.

It turned out that in order to let Jin Chanzi remember her most beautiful appearance, Bai Jingjing used her last strength to cast a secret method to regain her flesh and blood, but the price was completely disappeared.

Even after ten reincarnations, the original memory has long been erased by reincarnation, but the beauty hidden in the depths of the true spirit has never retreated.

When the opportunity comes, memories will flood in like a tide, drowning the already numb heart, making people unable to maintain their composure any longer.

Because of this, looking at Bai Jingjing who disappeared, Xuanzang's eyes were full of madness. He grabbed Wukong's shoulder and asked angrily, "How could you kill her?"

"My old grandson didn't want to save you!"

Wukong suddenly became a little unhappy, the old monk Xuanzang really didn't know good from bad, and he saved his life with good intentions, so it's fine not to thank him, but to blame himself.

After a while, Xuanzang finally calmed down. He sat cross-legged and began to recite the mantra for Bai Jingjing.

After reciting the rebirth mantra three thousand times, Xuanzang looked at Wukong indifferently, and said coldly, "You go, I don't have you as an apprentice!"

When Wukong heard the words, his eyes were full of disbelief.He saved Xuanzang's life, but Xuanzang still wanted to drive him away, which made Wukong feel extremely chilled.

Wukong took a deep look at Xuanzang, then called out somersaulting clouds, and went straight to the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain.

In the City God's domain, Wang Mingzhen couldn't help but let out a sigh: "Ask the world, what is love, and teach life and death directly!"

To be honest, since knowing Bai Jingjing's final choice, Wang Mingzhen is still very shocked. Not everyone can give up the temptation of longevity, even if this kind of longevity will pay a huge price!

Thinking about the Qin Emperor and Han Wu in Chinese history, the price they paid for longevity, we can see how strong Bai Jingjing's heart is!
If it weren't for this, Wang Mingzhen wouldn't have spent all his energy and energy to gather obsessions for Bai Jingjing in an attempt to help her rebirth from Nirvana.

It's a pity that he underestimated the weirdness of the beauty picture, and even underestimated the magic power of the demon lord Bo Xun, which caused such a tragedy.
