Journey to the West: The Rise of Martial Arts

Chapter 163
While speaking, Zhu Ganglian had already put down the rake, straightened his clothes, swayed, and greeted him with a gentle face.

It is not that he has never seen a woman more beautiful than this, but the beautiful village girl in front of him obviously has a unique style, which made him feel ecstatic and eloquent before he knew it: " Female Bodhisattva, where are you going? What are you holding in your hand?"

After finishing speaking, the thief's gaze continued to look at the girl.

Fortunately, this village girl is really an old monster with a shapeless shape, and I didn't see her shy, so she replied repeatedly: "Elder, I have fragrant rice and fried gluten in this green pot. I just passed by here because I want to repay my vows to become a monk. Unexpectedly, I met some eminent monks!" The so-called "vegetarian monks" are actually Buddhist believers who offer vegetarian meals to the monks to express their respect for the Three Jewels and accumulate merits to fulfill their vows.

After Zhu Gangli heard this, he couldn't help but swallowed, full of joy, and ran to report to Xuanzang: "Master is auspicious, and I feel hungry just now, so a monk came to the door!"

Xuanzang didn't believe it: "I know it's nonsense! We've been walking for so long, and we haven't met any good people. Where did this monk come from!"

After hearing this, Ren Qinglian thought to herself: This monk is not stupid after all!
Just as she was thinking, the village girl had already walked over on her own.

When Zhu Ganglian smelled the smell of rouge and gouache, he straightened his eyes and murmured: "Master, isn't it here..."

Xuanzang didn't notice the ugly appearance of Zhu Gang's mane, he quickly stood up, saluted and said, "Female Bodhisattva, where is your house? Where is it from? What kind of wish do you have to come here to worship the monk?"

Ren Qinglian knew that this was because the monk had been kidnapped by monsters many times to improve his memory, but when he saw Zhu Ganglian's expression, he was moved in his heart, and started to rotate the lotus formation of Liuhe Desire.

Soon, wisps of power of desire began to pour out from Zhu Ganglu's body, and slowly gathered in his dantian lotus array.

Zhu Ganglian slowly came to his senses, and shook his head in a daze.

Mrs. Bone's charm technique made the clothes seamless, and he has not noticed it until now.

I just heard the female bodhisattva and the master talk about the family affairs, saying, "Parents have no children, so they recruited a son-in-law for the slave, and they will retire for the rest of their lives" and so on.

Ren Qinglian was trying, wanting to use the power of the lotus formation in her dantian to absorb the power of desire from the bone spirit, so as to break her spell of charm and transformation.

It's just that Shiji Empress, as a disciple of a sage, has exquisite mysterious methods and profound Taoism, so how can a mere martial arts fairy like her be able to break through easily.

Taking advantage of this time, the village girl chatted with Xuanzang for a few more words, and finally mentioned that they would give the vegetarian meal to Xuanzang and the others.

Xuanzang, on the other hand, declined with some embarrassment: "Good! Good! One of my apprentices has gone to pick the fruit, and I'll be here soon. What's more, if your husband finds out that we ate your fast, wouldn't he want to scold you? When the time comes, blame the poor monk?"

Mrs. Bone was slightly taken aback, and secretly said: Why don't I make up the identity of a widow, and it will save so many twists and turns!Immediately, his face was full of spring, so he continued to make up stories to deceive.

But Zhu Ganglian over there couldn't help shouting: "The monkey doesn't know where to go to pick peaches and play tricks now, and he has eaten too many peaches. Just staring at the green pot in the girl's hand, swallowing hard.

When Mrs. Bone saw it, she handed the green pot to Zhu Ganglu, and smiled at Xuanzang: "Master, my parents are monks, but it's really nothing; my husband is even a kind person. He builds bridges and roads. Love the old and pity the poor, if you hear that this meal is given to a few masters, the relationship between him and me will be even more different than usual."

Xuanzang was still refusing, but the pig gangren was not polite. While complaining, he was afraid that there would be one more person to share the food when the monkey came back.

Mrs. Bone didn't care, and slowly approached Xuanzang while chatting with Xuanzang.

On the westward journey, every difficulty is a test for the learners.The number ninety-nine is taken by Buddhism, which means to go through all kinds of difficulties and dangers.According to their theory of cause and effect, anyone who participated in these catastrophes, whether they were helping or causing disasters, would gain merit and virtue.

As for the size of this merit, it depends on how much each of them contributed in the disaster.For Mrs. Bone, Tang Sanzang in the Three Plays finally made her hate the Monkey King, but she just wanted to magnify this merit.

Ren Qinglian naturally noticed the scene where the bone spirit was approaching Xuanzang, but he didn't find any killing intent on the other party. Moreover, even if the bone spirit was weak, it would be easy for him to attack Xuanzang at such a close distance.So, he was very surprised, knowing that the monkey was coming back soon, so he treated it as a show, and didn't try to stop it.

Sure enough, just when Xuanzang felt a little uncomfortable because the village girls kept approaching, the monkey finally came back carrying a huge peach branch and somersaulting clouds.

Mrs. Bone deliberately sold him a flaw, and from a long distance away, his piercing eyes saw that the village girl was a goblin, and he thought in his heart: I am so close to my master, I think she is a shameless ghost, if I want to suck the monk The boy's yang energy.

Immediately, with a cold drink, he pulled the stick and hit him.

The village girl was strong and strong, and when Ren Qinglian was stunned, she turned around and hid behind Xuanzang, pulling the monk's sleeve and crying: "Monster, elder, save me!"

Ren Qinglian couldn't help curling her lips, now she knew that the monkey was a monster, just now she and Zhu Ganglian were flirting, but she didn't see the slightest bit of fear.

Xuanzang, however, didn't care about whether men and women would give or receive kisses, so he stopped the monkey and began to question him.

Houzi was furious, "Master, the woman in front of you is a goblin..."

How can Xuanzang believe it, pointing to the vegetarian food in Zhu Gangman's hand, said: "This female Bodhisattva is very kind, and she wants to give this vegetarian food to us. How can you say that she is a goblin?"

The monkey sneered: "Master, how did you know that when my grandson was a monster in the Shuilian Cave, if he wanted to eat human flesh, he would use such tricks: he could change into gold or silver, or become a villa, or become intoxicated, or become Femininity..."

Xuanzang just didn't believe it.

Ren Qinglian kept paying attention to Bone Demon, and even saw a playful look in the other party's eyes.

With a move in his heart, Tai'a sword stabbed at the village girl.

Unexpectedly, although Mrs. Bone's cultivation base is weak, her skills are not bad, she led Xuanzang around without a trace, and avoided Ren Qinglian's three swords dangerously.

Taking advantage of this time, the monkey, who couldn't bear it long ago, grabbed the golden cudgel and hit it whistlingly.

This time, Mrs. Bone didn't dodge, and performed an autopsy method, leaving behind a fake corpse, and the real spirit had already fled away.

The "Borrowing Corpse Technique from the Potential Spirit" is the unique technique of Skull Mountain, and the monkey's golden eyes actually missed it, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master, don't blame it, let's take a look at what is in this jar."

Sha Wujing helped Xuanzang, who was in shock, and when he looked closer, there was no rice fried noodles, but a jar of maggots, worms and frogs, crawling and jumping around.

Xuanzang had already believed three points in his heart, and the pig over there stared at a lazy toad in his hand, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and cursed: "Could it be that you, a plague-stricken monkey, purposely used blindfolds to come here. Disgusting me, old pig?!" As he spoke, he recalled the monkey's teasing of him in the difficulty of the Four Sages' meditation test, and added: "It must be so, Master, this plague-stricken monkey must be afraid of you Only by reciting the tight-binding mantra did you use a trick to deceive your eyes, so that you don't recite the mantra!"

Ren Qinglian murmured that something was wrong, sure enough, Xuanzang listened to Zhu Gangli's instigation, twisted the formula in his hand, and was about to recite the mantra in his mouth.

"Layman, save me!" Seeing Ren Qinglian's attack just now, the monkey knew that this mysterious layman Ren must have seen something.

Ren Qinglian stepped forward and persuaded: "Master, think about the skill of that village girl. Can an ordinary peasant woman easily evade my three swords?"

Xuanzang was skeptical, but he had resented the monkey for not listening to discipline for a long time, and now he just found an excuse to vent.With a cold face, he looked at a female corpse left by Mrs. Bone, and began to recite the Buddhist scriptures.

The monkey winked at Ren Qinglian, and came to Xuanzang again to make amends: "Look, Master, I'll let her show her original shape!"

After all, several formulas hit the body of the female corpse.

Everyone stared at the corpse for a long time, but there was no change.

Zhu Ganglian couldn't help but say: "Tsk tsk, you hunt geese all day long, but you're blinded by geese pecking at you. Now you're exposed!"

Monkey frowned, just after beating the monster to death, he was anxious to explain to Xuanzang, and didn't look at it carefully, but now he was a little embarrassed, of course, he was more puzzled.

Ren Qinglian saw it, and said: "The monster should be a hidden spirit, and it has borrowed a real corpse to confuse us!"

Xuanzang raised his head, and said coldly: "When did Layman Ren have such a research on monsters!"

Ren Qinglian secretly cursed that the monk really didn't know what to do, so she stopped interjecting immediately, just like Sha Wujing, looked at him coldly from the sidelines.

Xuanzang replied to Ren Qinglian, and then sneered at the monkey: "I have never seen any monsters. The monks are compassionate, sweep the floor and cherish the lives of ants, and are afraid of moths flying into the veil. You are so ferocious and wild. How can you become a monk and go to the Western Paradise, you... you... go back!"

The monkey said in a daze: "Master, where do you teach me to go back?"

"I don't want you to be an apprentice, you can go wherever you want." Xuanzang said coldly.

"You don't want me to be your apprentice, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the West." Monkey couldn't help reminding.

"My fate is in the sky. Which goblin should steam it or cook it? It's all predestined. You can't save me?" Xuanzang snorted.

The monkey also said that he wanted to repay his kindness, and when he talked about the saddle and horses along the way, his words were sincere and full of regret.

Xuanzang's heart softened when he heard this, and finally said with a straight face: "Since I said so, let me spare you this time, if you don't repent, then you can recite the mantra twenty times!"

The monkey laughed and said, "It's up to you even thirty times!" After finishing speaking, he offered the peaches he picked.

Ren Qinglian knew that the matter had only just begun.

Sure enough, after eating some mountain peaches, the group continued westward. Just as they reached the foot of the hill ahead, they saw an eighty-year-old woman walking tremblingly on crutches.
