Journey to the West: Interpretation and Teaching Disciples

Chapter 157

After listening to Zen Master Wuchao's words, Sun Wukong said angrily, "Well, you Zen master, how many of our brothers are you mocking?"

Xuanzang asked in confusion, "Wukong, the old Zen master is talking about the journey to the west, how can you say he is mocking you?"

"Master, you don't understand. He said, 'The wild boar is the one who scolds Bajie for carrying the burden. The old stone monkey is the one who scolds my grandson. As for the one who is blocked on the westward journey, he is talking about Brother Zhang Xian?" asked sure.

"Exactly!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Zhang Xing replied: "But I don't know what the old Zen master meant when he said me, followed by the word 'Westward Road Obstruction'?"

Without waiting for Sun Wukong to reply, Bajie on the side said: "Master, senior brother, brother Zhang, this Zen master has some skills, he can know the past and the future, let's go westward to see if his words come true?"

Hearing Bajie's words, Sun Wukong didn't bother to find Zen Master Wuchao anymore, helped Xuanzang onto the white dragon horse and walked westward.

After leaving Futu Mountain, Xuanzang and his party walked for an unknown amount of time. Zhang Xing only knew that it was already scorching summer.

On this day, Xuanzang and his party were walking until the evening, when they saw a village at the foot of the mountain not far away, they couldn't help speeding up their pace a little, obviously wanting to rush to that village in the house.

A group of people hurried to the door of a village household before it was completely dark.When he arrived at the door of the village, Xuanzang packed his luggage and went up to knock on the door.

After a while, I heard a knock on the door, and an old voice asked in the house: "Who is it? It's so late?"

Then I heard that the closed gate was opened.At the same time, a white-haired old man came out.The old man opened the door and glanced at Xuanzang and his party.When he saw Xuanzang and Zhang Xing, he didn't say anything, but when he saw Sun Wukong and Bajie, he was startled and shouted: "Monster!" At the same time, he hurried back to the back of the chaimen and tried to close the chaimen.

Seeing this, Zhang Xing took a step forward, stopped the old man from opening his mouth and said, "Old man, we are not monsters! We are monks traveling west to learn Buddhist scriptures, those two just look a bit vicious!"

After the old man was stopped by Zhang Xing, he felt relieved when he saw that Monkey King and Bajie didn't make any moves.At this time Xuanzang also came up and explained to the old man.Seeing that both Xuanzang and Zhang Xing said this, and seeing that Xuanzang and Zhang Xing didn't look like any vicious people, the old man also let Xuanzang and the others into the house.

After entering the house, the old man called his family to meet Xuanzang and his party. At first, everyone was frightened by the appearance of Monkey King and Bajie, but they accepted it later.

The old man asked his family to deliver the food, and after Xuanzang and his party had finished eating, the old man chatted with Xuanzang.The old man asked: "I don't know why the mage wants to travel westward to gather scriptures? You can't walk this westward road?"

Seeing that the old man asked something strange, Xuanzang asked, "I don't know why the old man said that?"

The old man didn't hide anything, he said: "Twenty or thirty miles west of us, there is a Huangfeng Ridge [-] miles away. On this Huangfeng Ridge, there is a monster who calls himself Huangfeng Monster. This monster is powerful, and mortals are sad!"

Hearing the old man's words, Xuanzang was also a little scared. It was Sun Wukong who interjected: "Hehe, what are you afraid of, little monsters! We have a few brothers to protect us, so I can protect my master from the eight hundred miles of Huangfengling!"

After seeing that Sun Wukong is not a vicious person, the old man said after hearing what Sun Wukong said: "Little master, don't you disbelieve my words! That King Huangfeng is really powerful!"

At this time, Zhang Xing, who was resting at the side, heard the conversation between Xuanzang and the old man, and remembered that it was a yellow-haired mouse that blocked the way this time. Thinking of him, Zhang Xing frowned, because this mouse was not very skilled, but That mouthful of Samadhi Divine Wind was a headache, Zhang Xing thought about whether he should go to his master to borrow a fixed wind bead?

The fixed wind bead is not important to say, there are still a few people in the Three Realms who have it, but this fixed wind bead is only useful in special places, so the only one who has the famous fixed wind bead in the three realms is the current Lingji Bodhisattva, that is, the real person who crossed the disaster during the Shang Dynasty.But other people in the Three Realms also have them. Among other things, there will definitely be neutrons in Yunjiao.

Zhang Xing, who just thought about borrowing a fixed wind bead, happened to hear what Sun Wukong said. Seeing that Sun Wukong looked down on the yellow wind monster so much, Zhang Xing knew why Zhu Bajie was not blinded by the yellow wind monster afterwards, but was very capable. Sun Wukong's eyes were blinded.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xing said: "My lord, I have heard of this yellow wind monster before. This monster's ability is average, but it has the ability of a samadhi kamikaze. This samadhi kamikaze is not simple. The great sage should pay attention to it." !"

"Oh!" Hearing Zhang Xing's words, Monkey King looked at Zhang Xing and nodded. Monkey King said: "Brother Zhang Xian, I remember it!"

Looking at him, Zhang Xing knew that Monkey King didn't care too much, but Zhang Xing didn't say anything, because he knew that Monkey King had never experienced the Yellow Wind Monster, so he would not know how powerful the Yellow Wind Monster is.

Xuanzang and his party stayed in the old man's house for one night, and then they headed west while it was still dark.

When Xuanzang and his party approached noon, they came across a high mountain. Xuanzang did not expect that there was such a high mountain in the map of the Western Regions.Looking at the mountain in front of him, Xuanzang didn't urge him to go, so he started watching in front of the mountain.Seeing that a strong wind suddenly blew up, Xuanzang experienced many monsters along the way, and was a little scared in his heart. When he saw the strong wind, he wanted to hide, so he said to Monkey King: "Monkey King, this wind is a bit overwhelming. Strange, shall we hide?"

Who is Monkey King!How could he be frightened by the wind? Hearing what Xuanzang said, he said, "Master, there is nothing to be afraid of this wind. It's just a normal time of day!"

Xuanzang wanted to hide, but Sun Wukong was too embarrassed to say that. At this moment, Zhu Bajie said: "Brother, you have never heard that 'avoiding color is like avoiding hatred, avoiding wind is like avoiding arrows'! Let's hide for a while. It’s not bad for anyone to hide.”

Bajie’s words said that Xuanzang’s heart went up, and he was about to agree, but Sun Wukong said, “Master, wait for me to see if this wind is some kind of evil wind?” gone.

As soon as Monkey King walked away, the gust of wind became more urgent, and suddenly a striped tiger sprang out from the gust of wind.As soon as the tiger came out, it rushed towards Xuanzang, which made Xuanzang unsteady and fell off his horse.

Zhang Xing noticed the tiger spirit when it came out. Seeing Xuanzang fell off the horse, Zhang Xing went to help Xuanzang, but he didn't notice the striped tiger spirit for a while.Right here, a shout came from beside Zhang Xing: "Naughty animal, where are you going!"
