Rebirth of the Great Desolation: I am Red Cloud

Chapter 249
But when Wukong and his disciples were walking, they suddenly saw a villa at the north end of the road.

Sanzang and the horse pointed with whips: "We'll go there to spend the night." After saying that, they beat the horses forward and went to the village on their own.

As soon as he entered the door of the cottage, he saw an old man walking out of the village, and Sanzang hurriedly dismounted to greet him.

The old man asked: "Elder, where are you from?"

Sanzang said: "The poor monk is an imperial envoy from the Tang Dynasty in the east to seek scriptures in the west. Passing by Baofang, it will be getting late, so I came here to spend the night in your place."

The old man was shocked immediately and said: "Look at the elder's whiteness and wealth, he actually waded through the water and climbed the mountain alone to the west of me!"

Sanzang said embarrassingly: "The old man was joking, the poor monk and three apprentices came with him. Thanks to their help along the way, otherwise we would not have reached your place."

The old man realized it, and immediately said excitedly: "Those three high-ranking disciples must be extraordinary, where they are, the old man knows each other."

Sanzang turned his head and pointed to the back. After a while, Wukong, Bajie, and Drifting appeared at the bend in the road.

After looking carefully, the old man didn't say a word, turned around and walked in hastily.

Sanzang didn't understand the reason, and immediately asked the old man, "Old man, why are you leaving now, the poor monk hasn't introduced them to you yet."

Hearing this, the old man immediately trembled, struggled away, shook his head, waved his hands and said, "Those three don't...no...no, they don't look like humans! They are fairies! What else do I know! "

When Sanzang heard it, he suddenly realized, and hurriedly laughed and said: "Don't be afraid, benefactor, my three apprentices have supernatural abilities, so they have visions, and they are ugly, but they are not goblins!"

The old man was surprised and said: "My God, a Yasha, a horse face, and a Lei Gong! They really are the disciples of the elders."

Before the old man finished speaking, Wukong had already stepped forward. He was still angry with Sanzang complaining and Bajie complaining, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Old man, how can they compare with the old grandson. Lei Gong is my grandson, Yasha It's my great-grandson, Ma Mian is my great-great-grandson!"

The old man was overwhelmed by Wukong's big words, and his face turned pale. He turned around and fled to the village again.

Sanzang hurriedly grabbed him again, accompanied him to the front of the thatched cottage, and said with a smile, "Old man, don't be afraid of him. I said a few words to him today, and he didn't like it, so he is so rude. Please forgive me, old man."

Sanzang was persuading the family, when a mother-in-law walked out, carrying a five or six-year-old child, and said, "Grandpa, why are you so frightened?"

The old man hurriedly said: "Honey, come and have some tea."

The mother-in-law had no choice but to leave her grandson behind, and went inside to bring out two cups of tea.After tea, Sanzang turned around and bowed to the old woman: "The poor monk was sent by the Tang Dynasty in the east to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures, so he came to your place and begged the Zunfu to stay overnight, because my three apprentices are ugly. The old man was a false alarm when he saw it."

The mother-in-law said: "It's a false alarm when you see an ugly person. What if you see a tiger and a wolf? How can you hunt!"

The old man said: "My wife, it's okay to have an ugly face. It's just that when you say that kind of big talk, it sounds creepy. I said he looks like Yasha, Mamian, and Lei Gong, but he yelled that Lei Gong is his grandson, and Yasha is his grandson." His great-grandson, Ma Mian is his great-great-grandson. After hearing what he said, how can I not be afraid when I look at his appearance?"

Tang Seng quickly explained to the old woman: "No, no, the one who looks like Lei Gong is my big disciple Sun Wukong, the one who looks like a horse face is my second disciple Zhu Wuneng, and the one who looks like Yasha is my third disciple Sha Wujing. Although they are ugly, However, they all teach ascetics and take refuge in good fruits. They are not demons and monsters, so don’t be afraid of them.”

The two old men heard that Wukong and other names are indeed disciples of Buddhism, so they reassured and said: "Then please come, I can stay overnight."

Hearing this, Sanzang quickly thanked him and came out to call Wukong and the three of them in. Before entering the door, he ordered: "The old man was afraid of you just now. Now we go in and meet each other. Don't resist the courtesy, you must be respectful!"

Bajie pursed his big mouth, and said in a low voice: "I am handsome and gentle, old pig, and I am no more rude than senior brother. Don't tell me!"

Wukong laughed and said, "Yes. It's not that he has a long mouth, big ears, and an ugly face, but he is really a handsome and gentle man."

The meaning of sarcasm in the words could not be more obvious.

Drifting listened to the bickering between the two, and hurriedly said: "Don't argue, this is not the place to play tricks, let's go in! Come in!"

The three of them took their bags and horses, went to the thatched cottage, sang together, greeted the old couple, and then sat down peacefully.

The old lady was virtuous, seeing Bajie and the others, she hurried back with her grandson and ordered the cooking, and arranged a vegetarian meal for them, the master and the disciples.

After the fast meal, it was getting late, and the lamps were lit again, and Sanzang, master and apprentice, all chatted with the old couple in the thatched cottage.

Not wanting this narration, Sanzang and the others were suddenly startled and felt uneasy for a while.

It turns out that this old man, surnamed Yang, is now 74 years old and has only one son.This son was so unworthy that he followed a group of suspected bandits and went up the mountain to become a bandit.

Wukong met a group of bandits before and killed two of the leaders, how can he feel at ease after hearing what the old couple said now.

This old couple has only one son, although they are unworthy, but someone will always be buried, if Wukong beats him to death, wouldn't it cut off the two old people's future?

At present, the master and apprentice, after talking to the old man, each got up and went to the backyard, resting restlessly in their hearts, just waiting for the dawn, and hurried on the road.

But he said that the gang of thieves was indeed Lao Yang's son.Since they were beaten to death by Wukong in the valley during the day, they all scattered and fled for their lives. Around four o'clock, they got together again and came to Lao Yang's house.

When Lao Yang heard the door knock, he immediately put on his clothes and said, "Honey, those fellows are here."

The old woman said: "Since he is here, you go and open the door and let him come home."

The old man just opened the door, only to see the gang of thieves shouting: "Hungry! Hungry!"

Lao Yang's son entered the house, called his wife, ordered rice to be cooked, and settled the robbers. Seeing that there was no firewood in the kitchen, he went to the backyard to get firewood into the kitchen, and saw Bajie's white horse tied in the yard. I was surprised, so I came back and asked my wife.

After questioning, he realized that it was Wukong and others. He walked out of the thatched cottage, clapped his hands and laughed, and said, "Brothers, good luck! Good luck! The enemy is at my house!"

The thieves didn't understand their meaning for a while, and said: "The enemy?"

The fellow said: "It is the monk from the Tang Dynasty who beat our leader to death during the day. He came to stay at my house and is now sleeping in a thatched hut in the backyard."

When the thieves heard this, they immediately cheered and said, "Very good, very good. Take these bald donkeys and chop them into meat paste one by one. One will get the golden stick and the white horse, and two, come and avenge our boss!"

The fellow said: "Don't be too busy, you go sharpen your knives. When I cook the rice and everyone is full, we will have the strength to start together."

The thieves thought it was reasonable, and those who sharpened their knives sharpened their knives, and those who sharpened their guns sharpened their guns, and got ready in front.

That old Yang came to see his son. Hearing what he said, he hurried to the backyard quietly, called up Sanzang and the other four, and said, "My unworthy son has brought all the bandits here. I know that you are at home and intend to harm you. You are grinding in front of us." Knife. The old man misses you coming from afar, and can't bear to be hurt, so pack your bags early, and I'll send you out the back door!"

Sanzang heard that he kowtowed tremblingly and thanked the old man, and immediately called Bajie to lead the horse, Drifting Monk to carry the burden, and Pilgrim took the nine-ringed tin stick.The old man opened the back door and let them go, but the old man came back and fell asleep quietly.

But the gang of bandits had sharpened their knives and guns, had enough food, and it was already five o'clock, so they came to the backyard together, but they couldn't see anyone in the dark.He hurriedly lit the lamp and set fire to it, and searched for a long time, but there was still no trace. When someone saw that the back door was open, they immediately knew they had gone through the back door.

They didn't catch up with Sanzang and others until the sunrise in the east.

Sanzang heard the shouts in the front, turned around to look, and there were two or thirty people behind, armed with guns and knives, and shouted: "Oh Wukong, the bandits are chasing us, what can we do!"

Wukong smiled and said: "Don't worry! Don't worry! Old Sun will stop them"

Sanzang reined in his horse and warned: "Wukong, don't hurt anyone, just scare them away."

Wukong was not willing to listen, and hurriedly turned his stick back to the Prime Minister and said, "Where are you going?"

The thieves scolded: "The bald donkey is rude! Give back my king's life!"

A group of bandits formed a circle, surrounded Wukong in the middle, raised their spears and knives, and hacked and stabbed randomly.

How could Wukong tolerate them now, he just used the golden cudgel, as thick as a bowl, to beat the gang of thieves to death, those who swung died, those who touched died, those who rubbed broke bones, and those who touched each other died. Skin wounds, some clever ones ran away, and some demented ones met Hades in an instant!

Sanzang turned his head on the horse and saw Wukong knocking down many people, he let his horse run away in a panic.Bajie and Monk Sha left behind the whip and stirrup.

Wukong asked the undead and wounded thief, "Is that the son of Old Man Yang?"

The thief hummed and said, "Grandpa, that's the one in yellow!"

Wukong stepped forward, grabbed the knife, cut off the head of a man wearing yellow, held it bloody in his hand, put away the iron rod, pulled away the cloud step, rushed to Sanzang's horse, raised his head and said: "Master, this is Yang The old son's son, the old grandson took the head of the general."

When Sanzang saw him, his face turned pale with fright, he fell off his horse in a panic, and cursed, "This hozen is threatening to kill me! Bury it soon! Bury it soon!"

Bajie hurriedly said: "Brother Monkey, why are you scaring Master." While speaking, he stepped forward and kicked the head off the roadside, using nails and palladium to build some soil to cover it.

Drifting put down his burden, supported Tang Seng by his arm, and said, "Master, please get up. The head is gone."

Unexpectedly, when Sanzang saw that Wukong was trying to scare him, he would give up, without saying a word, he immediately sat on the ground and began to recite "The Curse of the Tight Band".

When Wukong heard the incantation, his ears turned red, his eyes swelled and his face became dizzy, and he rolled on the ground, saying repeatedly: "Don't read it! Don't read it! This disciple dare not."

Sanzang recited the mantra more than ten times, but he still couldn't stop talking.

The traveler turned somersaults and stood upright, feeling unbearable pain, and only called out: "Master, please forgive me! Say what you have to say, don't read it anymore! Don't read it anymore!"

But Sanzang stopped and said, "I have nothing to say, I don't want you to follow, you go back!"

Wukong endured the pain and kowtowed: "Master, why did you drive me away?"

Sanzang said: "You are too vicious, you Poor Monkey, you are not a person who learns scriptures. Yesterday at the foot of the hillside, I beat and killed those two thieves. I already blamed you for being unkind. I went to the old man's home late, and he gave me a meal to spend the night." , and he opened the back door to let me escape with my life. Although his son is unworthy, he has nothing to do with us. You shouldn't just take his head. Besides, he killed many people, how many lives were destroyed, and how much harmony between heaven and earth was hurt. I've tried to persuade you many times, and I don't have any kind thoughts, what do I want you to do! Go away! Go away! I won't read the truth again!"

Wukong hated in his heart, but he was afraid, so he just yelled: "Mo Nian, Mo Nian! I'll go!" As soon as he said that, there was a somersault cloud, and he disappeared without a trace.

Wukong understood in his heart, seeing that he had reached the sixth kalpa in learning from the Western Paradise, and after another kalpa, he would achieve the right result. Now several people naturally have to fight for who is the first.

Bajie intentionally sued him without mentioning it, and Sanzang even took the opportunity to expel him.And he is also doing his tricks and leaving on purpose.It's also good to let them know that without him, Wukong, this Western Paradise would not be possible.

Wukong knew even more clearly that this sixth catastrophe was the layout of his teacher Hongyun.Where will others pass?

Without him, no one can get through this game!
If we don't have this opportunity now to reflect his achievements on the journey to the West, when will we have to wait?
Wukong had been instructed by Yunxiao and others last time, and now he is no longer a person who is ignorant and dedicated to learning the scriptures. How could he let Bajie who pretends to be dumbfounded, Drifting who pretends to be stupid, and Sanzang who pretends to be kind to be driven by swords and guns.

It's just that it's not really going to break up, so Wukong can't go back to Huaguoshan, but after a little calculation in his mind, he has an idea, and he is going to the South China Sea to let Guanyin know, after all, who can't do without who is going to the West to learn scriptures.
