Journey to the West: Interpretation and Teaching Disciples

Chapter 140

Guanyin Bodhisattva took a few things from the Tathagata, took Mu Zha, and flew towards the Eastern Land Tang Dynasty.Because the Tathagata told Guanyin Bodhisattva to only fly in mid-air, Guanyin did not hide in the clouds, but walked in half cloud and half fog.

Avalokitesvara, master and apprentice, was walking when they suddenly saw Ruoshui Sanqian coming to the boundary of Liusha River.

Looking at the raging river in front of him, Avalokitesvara sighed: "Apprentice! The river is so raging here, how can a mortal body do it?"

Hui'an Walker heard Guanyin's words and said, "Master, how far is this river?"

When Guanyin heard Hui'an's words, he stopped the clouds and looked into the distance. He saw that the quicksand was connected to the moraine in the east, and reached Zhufan in the west; Ugo in the south, and Tatar in the north.It is eight hundred miles across, and tens of thousands of miles up and down.

While Guanyin Bodhisattva was watching, suddenly there was a sound of "噗嗤" in the quicksand river, and then a monster with a face that was not green, not black, and ugly, with red hair and bare feet holding a treasured staff, rushed out of the river and grabbed Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Seeing an ugly demon rushing out of the river to grab his master, Hui'an Walker, although he knew that his master would not be caught, still shouted: "Bold!" He rushed towards the monster.

With a mixed iron rod in his hand, Mu Zha met the monster's treasured staff that rushed out of the river.

"Dang!" After the sound of metal and iron clanging, Mu Zha and the demon each took two steps back.After looking at each other twice, the two rushed towards their opponents. After fighting for more than 20 rounds, the two were stunned to find out the winner.

There was another sound of gold and iron clattering, and the demon held the iron stick in Mu Zha's hand and asked, "Where did you come from, monk, you dare to come to be my enemy?"

Mu Zha snorted coldly, and replied: "I am Mu Zha Hui'an Xingzhe, the second prince of the Heavenly King of Tuota. Today, I will protect my master to go to the east to find Buddhist scriptures. What's wrong with you, dare to block the way?"

Hearing Mu Zha's words, the monster asked curiously: "I heard that you and Guanyin of the South China Sea were practicing in the purple bamboo forest. How did you come to me?"

After hearing this, Mu Zha said to the monster, "Isn't my master on the shore?"

The monster looked up and saw Guanyin Bodhisattva standing on the bank looking at it.After seeing Avalokitesvara 1, the monster was caught and brought to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva by Mu Zha.

As soon as he saw the Bodhisattva, the monster bowed his head and said: "Bodhisattva, forgive me, I am not a demon, I am the rolling curtain general who serves Luanyu under His Royal Highness Lingxiao." Then he told Guanyin Bodhisattva about himself .

After listening to Guanyin Bodhisattva, he told him about the Tathagata's request to find someone to learn from the scriptures, and then persuaded General Shulin to join the Buddhist gate, so that he could avoid disasters on his body.

After hearing this, the rolling shutter general agreed, and then Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva named the rolling shutter general 1, his surname was Sha, and his first name was Wujing.

After making arrangements for the rolling shutter general, Guanyin Bodhisattva continued eastward with Mu Zha.After walking for a while, Guanyin and his disciples came to a high mountain.Avalokitesvara saw that there was an evil spirit on the mountain, and was about to ride the clouds over the mountain. A gust of wind flashed by, and a pig demon rushed out of the wind and rushed towards Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

Seeing this situation, Mu Zha naturally picked up the mixed iron rod in his hand and blocked the pig demon.At the same time, he shouted: "Where did the monster come from, don't be rude!"

When the pig demon heard Mu Zha's words, red light flashed in his eyes, and he replied, "You don't know how to live or die, you monk, how dare you stop your grandpa pig, look at palladium!"

After speaking, the pig demon raised the rake in his hand and hit Mu Zha with a palladium.Mu Zha had no choice but to use the mixed iron rod in his hand to resist the rake in the hands of the pig demon.Unexpectedly, as soon as he came into contact with the pig demon's Dingba Muzha, his face changed, and his whole body couldn't help but retreated dozens of steps before stopping.But the pig demon stood there motionless.

Seeing this, Mu Zha knew that he was no match for this pig demon.But his master was watching from above, and Mu Zha couldn't be defeated, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and compete with the pig monster.

The Guanyin Bodhisattva on the side was moved when he saw that Mu Zha was not the opponent of the pig demon, and he was not slow in his hands, and threw a lotus flower at the pig demon.

Lianhua seemed to be slow, but in fact, she quickly arrived in front of the pig demon and repelled the pig demon's rake.When the pig demon saw a lotus flower, he fought back. He was startled, but although he was shocked, he didn't show it on his face.The pig demon said to Mu Zha: "Where did you come from, monk, to make a flower coax me?"

When Mu Zha saw that Lianhua defeated the pig demon, he knew that his master had done it!This is just when I heard the question from the pig demon, and said angrily: "You pig demon, you are so unreasonable, I am a disciple of Guanshiyin Bodhisattva of the South Sea, and the lotus flower just now belongs to my master!"

Hearing the monk on the opposite side say that his master is Guanshiyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea, the pig demon's eyes flashed, and he suddenly smiled at Mu Zha: "Hehe, brother, don't be offended! I don't know where the Bodhisattva is! Please introduce me!"

Originally, Mu Zha was a little angry at the pig demon, but after hearing what he said, he had to add that he knew the purpose of his master's eastward journey.He pointed to the position of Guanyin Bodhisattva and said, "Isn't that my master?"

Seeing the Bodhisattva, the pig demon hurriedly shouted loudly: "Bodhisattva, forgive your sins! Forgive your sins!"

Avalokitesvara came down to the pig demon and asked, "What monster are you? Why do you want to block my eastward journey?"

Hearing Guanyin's words, the pig demon revealed his old background. It turned out that he was Tianpeng Yuanshuai who was demoted to the mortal world!
After hearing what Marshal Tianpeng said, Guanyin quickly stated the purpose of his eastward journey, and asked Marshal Tianpeng, "I don't know if the Marshal would like to be the disciple of the Buddhist scriptures. , the Marshal can be full and become a member of my Buddhism, I wonder if the Marshal is willing?"

After hearing Guanyin Bodhisattva finished speaking, Marshal Tianpeng agreed without even thinking about it.This made Guanyin startled, but then ignored it.Just as the marshal of the canopy to get out of disaster as soon as possible.

But how does Guanyin know that this was discussed between Zhang Xing and Marshal Tianpeng?Long before, Zhang Xing told Marshal Tianpeng what he could say when he met Marshal Tianpeng.Now Marshal Canopy is just acting!
Afterwards, Avalokitesvara took a dharma name for Marshal Tianpeng, calling Zhu Wuneng!After arranging the marshal of the canopy, Guanyin continued on the road!Later, he rescued Xiao Bailong on the road.Let the little white dragon wait for the arrival of the Buddhist scriptures in Yingshoujian.

After accepting the little white dragon, Guanyin master and apprentice continued eastward.After a while, the two of them saw golden light and a thousand streams of auspiciousness in front of them.

Seeing this, Mu Zha said: "Master, the place where the light shines in front is the Five Elements Mountain!"

"Oh! But that monkey who disturbed the Peach Fair and the Heavenly Palace?" Guanyin said in surprise.

They didn't know, because the arrival of the two had already alarmed Monkey King at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain. After hearing Guanyin's words, Monkey King said, "Who is it that exposes my old grandson's shortcomings on the mountain?"

After hearing Sun Wukong's words, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva descended to the front of Sun Wukong and said, "My surname is Sun! I don't know, but do you still recognize me?"

Sun Wukong opened his eyes, looked at Avalokitesvara, and said with a smile, "I know! I know! You are the great compassionate and compassionate Namo Guanyin Bodhisattva. I hope Bodhisattva can save me from the sea of ​​suffering!"

Then, just like Zhang Xing's original work in his previous life, Guanyin took Sun Wukong into Buddhism and told him to wait patiently for the arrival of the Buddhist scriptures at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain.

After accepting Monkey King, the master and apprentice Guanyin came to the border of the Tang Dynasty not far away!After the two rushed to Chang'an, they turned into two lay monks and searched for Buddhist scriptures in the city of Chang'an.
