Journey to the West: The Rise of Martial Arts

Chapter 116
What happened last night has already let everyone in Gao Laozhuang know that Mrs. Gao has invited a truly virtuous mage to come and subdue the demons.

By the time Ren Qinglian and the others lowered their heads, the Gao family hall was already full of relatives from the Gao family, and Xuanzang was just talking about Buddhist scriptures with relish.

Ever since Gao Cuilan saw how powerful the monkey was last night, she has been worried all the time. She hid in the attic where she was staying and saw things and thought about people. She climbed on the window of the attic not far away and saw the pig demon being caught by the monkey from a distance. Close your ears and turn to the front of the hall.My heart tightened, and I ran downstairs with my dress in hand.

In the yard, everyone was full of praise for the monkey's ability.

The family that Ren Qinglian went to buy vegetarian food yesterday was also among them, recognized his identity, and came up to greet him, feeling a little smug.After all, there are so many families in the village, and the eminent monks and his party love their food. If they say it, it will be something to talk about in front of others.

Ren Qinglian grasped the nine-toothed rake, and secretly corroded it with various poisons and strengths along the way, and found that it was indeed a magic weapon.But this action frightened the pig, for fear that the kid would destroy his magic weapon unexpectedly.

During this period, Zhu Ganglu said in a few words that he was enlightened by the Bodhisattva and waited for Xuanzang's story, so he bowed down and called him master.

Knowing that it was arranged by the Bodhisattva, Xuanzang readily accepted it.

When Gao Cuilan came down, the simple apprenticeship ceremony was over.

Xuanzang heard that the pig demon said that he gave himself a Dharma name of "Pig Wu Neng", and said with a smile: "Okay! Okay! Your senior brother is called Wu Kong, and you are called Wu Neng. They are both sects in my Dharma sect." .”

Zhu Ganglu said again: "Master, I have accepted the Bodhisattva's precepts and cut off the five meat and three disgusts. I also kept a vegetarian diet in my father-in-law's house and never used meat. I have seen the master today, so I will break my fast? "

Gao Cuilan heard the words "My father-in-law's home" from a distance, and couldn't help but secretly sneered, "How shameless!" Seeing that he didn't seem to be injured, she finally calmed down and looked at him from a distance, neither coming forward nor far away. Going, I am really entangled in my heart, what should be the evaluation of this nominal marriage between the two, is it true that, as the pig demon said, they were a happy couple in their previous life?
Xuanzang laughed when he heard what Zhu Gangli said: "No, no, since you don't eat five meat and three things, I'll give you an alias and call it Bajie."

Zhu Ganglue readily accepted, glanced around, but caught a glimpse of Gao Cuilan, and was about to step forward to say a few words, when the old Mrs. Gao saw him from a distance, blocked his vision, and stepped forward to congratulate Xuanzang. Fan, he also asked the servants of the family to arrange a banquet to reward Tang Seng.

With this blink of an eye, when Zhu Gangli looked at Gao Cuilan again, he no longer knew where he had gone.

Feeling helpless, he stepped forward and grabbed Grandpa Gao and said, "Master Yuezhang, how about asking me to come out and meet all the father-in-laws and uncles?"

Gao Taigong secretly agreed to the marriage due to the situation before, but he had never been so close to this pig demon before, his heart shuddered, and his face turned pale, not to mention, under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could he really agree to it? This son-in-law's request.

Just because of hesitation, the monkey laughed and scolded: "My dear brother, since you have entered the Shamen and become a monk, from now on, you will never mention that humble Jing again. There is only one Taoist priest living in the world, where is there one?" The monk who lives in the house? Let's talk about the sitting time, have a fast meal, and walk to the west as soon as possible."

But I don't know that this Zhu Ganglu was taught by Taoist Lu Ya, and he entered Buddhism from Taoism. Not to mention that he and Gao Cuilan were destined by fate in the past life, it is the Zen method that he is currently practicing latently, and it is also the joyful Zen skill of Tantric Buddhism. said, but he had no intention of explaining to the monkey, so he smiled lightly, noncommittal.

After the banquet and leaving, Zhu Ganglian saw Gao Cuilan hiding behind the crowd from afar, and was overjoyed. He swayed forward and sang to Grandpa Gao: "Good husband, treat my wife well. After learning the scriptures, I will continue to live with you as my son-in-law."

The monkey yelled from the side: "Tamp the goods, but don't talk nonsense!"

Little did he know that Zhu Gangli's words were actually meant for Gao Cuilan who was behind him.

During this period of time, Gao Cuilan had already felt the strange eyes of everyone looking at her. After hearing Zhu Gangli's words, she made a decision in her heart. She planned to leave Gao Laozhuang and visit the place where the monks from the Tang Dynasty came. One is that there are rumors that there are outstanding people and that it is a good place to practice, and the other is that I don't want to stay in this village any longer and be judged and gossiped.

Ren Qinglian saw that Gao Cuilan's eyes suddenly became firm, so she knew that Zhu Gangli's words had finally worked, and said with a smile: "Second senior brother is afraid that something will go wrong on the road, and he will miss being a monk and marrying a wife by then. , both delays..."

Zhu Gangli was slightly taken aback when he heard his address, but he didn't think too much about it, thinking that this seniority was passed down from Zen Master Wuchao. After all, in his opinion, the two are actually brothers of the same school.

Little did they know that the title "Second Senior Brother" was actually just the title Ren Qinglian heard from the videos of her previous life, and it was more meaningful as a joke.

Xuanzang had taken in a new apprentice with high abilities, and he was in a good mood. The audience joked and said with a smile: "Stop gossiping, let's go early."

After finishing speaking, the second senior brother had already packed a load of luggage and followed Xuanzang's pace to the west.

"Second Senior Brother, why don't you put this luggage on the horse?"

Ren Qinglian was surprised and couldn't help asking.

Zhu Bajie already knew that the white dragon was transformed by Xi Hai's pretty face, and said with a smile, "Didn't Master say that we are walking monks, and carrying this luggage is a form of cultivation..."

Secretly, she sent a voice transmission to Ren Qinglian and said: "My dear brother, you don't know something. You have merit in shouldering the burden and leading the horse, but all the hard work you put in on the way to learn the scriptures is meritorious deeds!"

This is also because everyone is an apprentice of Zen Master Wuchao, Zhu Gangli will tell these secrets to Ren Qinglian.

Ren Qinglian opened her mouth, then looked at the horse she was leading, she thought that was the case, but she deeply admired the second senior brother for not forgetting to flatter all the time.

How could he know that Zhu Ganglu had been able to serve as Marshal of the Canopy for so many years, and he had long been familiar with the skills of shooting his boss's horses.

Sure enough, after listening to Zhu Bajie's words, Xuanzang even said a few words that children can be taught, and he became more and more fond of this new apprentice.

Because the Heart Sutra of Zen Master Wuchao had already been passed on to Xuanzang with the help of Venerable Longxiang, so the incident of meeting Zen Master Wuchao on the Futu Mountain Road will be eliminated.

The three of them ate and slept all the way, and the journey was safe and sound. Before they knew it, March in Yangchun had passed.
