It is said that Sun Wukong fell into the clouds and told Tang Seng that Lao Jun took back the five treasures and gold and silver boys, Tang Seng thanked him again and again, and strengthened his heart to go west, so he climbed the saddle and got on the horse. Sun Wukong still walked forward to open the way, the sand monk led the horse, Zhu Bajie picked up the luggage, and the four masters and apprentices continued to travel west.
After walking for a long time, another high mountain blocked the way(Still).Tang Seng shouted"Apprentice, you see that mountain is majestic, you need to be careful and careful, I'm afraid that there are demonic obstacles again! ”
Sun Wukong: "* Don't be cranky,."As long as qualitatively exists(When the mind is quiet, the body is safe)., naturally nothing
Apprentice, why is it so difficult for the West Heaven to walk? I remember leaving Chang'an City, this way spring and summer, autumn and winter solstice,It's been four or five yearsWhy can't you get there? ”
Morning! Morning! I haven't walked out of the door yet! ”
Zhu Bajie: "Brother, don't lie, there is such a gate in the world?" ”
Brother, let's still walk around the hall! ”
Sha Seng also made up his words: "Senior brother doesn't talk big and scary, ** there is such a big hall? There is nowhere to buy such a big lintel! ”
Brother, if you look at the old grandson, thisThe blue sky is the roof tile, the sun and the moon are the window lattices, the four mountains and five mountains are the beams and pillars, and the earth is like an open hall
Zhu Bajie: "That's it! That's it! Let's go back in a while! ”
Don't talk nonsense! Just follow Lao Sun and walk! Sun Wukong said, the iron rod crossed his shoulder, and continued to lead the way.
Tang Seng immediately watched and saw that the mountain was soaring into the sky, and the mountain wind was whistling in his ears, faintly mixed with the cry of a tiger roaring ape, so he stopped his horse and said tremblingly: "Wukong, this mountain doesn't seem to be a good place to go." ”
Tang Seng's dialogue is a miscellaneous lyric with the theme of Chinese herbal medicine in the original work. Sun Wukong sneered: "* Don't be anxious, and move forward with confidence, to ensure that you 'succeed naturally'!" ”
The four masters and apprentices walked for a while, until the red sun fell in the west, Tang Seng faintly saw that there was a tower and a temple in the col in front of him, and shouted: "Apprentice, it is late at this time, and the front place seems to be a temple, we will go there for a night, and we will go again tomorrow." ”
*That's right, wait until I'll see how it goes. Sun Wukong jumped into the air to take a closer look, and replied: "* Sure enough, it's a temple, let's go here." ”
Tang Seng rode his horse and walked quickly, until he came to the mountain gate and stopped, Sun Wukong asked: "* What kind of temple is this?"”
Hello, I don't know!The horse's hooves have just stopped, and my toes have not yet come out of the stirrups, how do I know what kind of temple this is?”
Your old man has been a monk since childhood, has read Confucian books, lectured on scriptures, and received the grace of the Tang King (gift, appreciation), you don't recognize such a big character on this mountain gate?”
You!I was riding a horse facing west, and I was blinded by the sun, and the word was covered with dirt, how could I see?”
Sun Wukong bowed his waist to a height of two zhang, and reached out to wipe the dust off the words, only then did he see the five big characters."Ejian Baolin Temple”。Sun Wukong took the Dharma Body and asked, "*Who went to this temple to ask for a loan?"(Built by the emperor.) There is a Baolin Temple in Shunde, Foshan, Guangdong).
I'll go for it,You are ugly in appearance, vulgar in speech, and arrogant in natureIf you collide with someone and don't give us a night, it won't be beautiful. ”
That's right. **Go, why say more!”
Tang Seng put down the tin staff, took off his cloak, and walked towards the temple with his hands together.
As soon as I entered the mountain gate, I saw a pair of King Kong in the red railings on both sides, with iron faces and steel beards, angry eyebrows and round eyes, the left fist skull protrusion (the bone joint is obvious) like pig iron, and the right palm (léng céng, uneven) red copper. Tang Seng couldn't help but sigh when he saw it: "If my eastern soil also worships such a great Bodhisattva and Buddha, I don't need to go to the west sky!."”
After entering the second gate, there are four heavenly kings, which are the four golden bodies of holding the country, hearing more, growing and wide-eyed, which means the northeast and southwest, and the wind and rain are smooth. Go further in, behind the four trees of Qiao Song is the Daxiong Treasure Palace, Tang Seng entered the hall and took refuge with his palms, and bowed down.
After worshipping, get up and come to the apse, only to see that the wall is carved with the inverted seat Guanyin (sitting south and facing north) Pudu South China Sea, fish, shrimp, crab, and Ao stretch out their heads and show their tails on the side, and jump into the sea to chase the tide. Tang Seng sighed even more: "Poor!."Scaly sentient beings are still vying to worship the Buddha, why don't I humans refuse to practice!”
Just as he was sighing, one of the three doors came outTaoist(Vernacular "Journey to the West": Chapter 16 - Elder Jinchi of Guanyin Monastery explained in one episode that Taoism is not equal.)Taoist priest, also refers to the monks or lay helpers who do chores in the monastery), looking at Tang Seng, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "* Where did you come from?"”
* It is the Tang Dynasty of the East to send down to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, today to the treasure side (your land, your land), the sky will be late, and I came to borrow a night. ”
* No wonder, I'm a Taoist who sweeps the floor and hits the bell in the temple, and I can't call the shots in this matter, so I'll go in and report to the housekeeper **. If he keeps you, I will ask, but if he does not, I will not dare to hold on. ”
There is labor! There is labor! ”
The Taoist turned back to the abbot and reported: "Master, someone is here outside." ”
The old monk got up and changed his clothes, put on his robe, straightened his hat, opened the door and asked, "* Someone is coming?" ”
Isn't that the one behind the main hall? ”
The old monk saw that Tang Seng was bareheaded, wearing a twenty-five Dharma clothes (the dress of the monk when giving alms and meeting guests, ranging from three to one hundred and twenty-seven according to his status, and Tang Seng's twenty-five were medium), and pedaled a pair of muddy and watery Dagong shoes under his feet, and immediately became angry: "You are looking for a fight!" Don't you know that I am a monk, and I only come out to greet the priests in the city when they offer incense! If you are a monk like him, you will also report to me to welcome him? Seeing that he is dressed as a wandering monk, he should spend the night at the door, how can we abbots allow him to disturb? Tell him to 'crouch' under the front porch! After angrily reprimanding the Taoist, he turned around and entered the abbot.
Tang Seng wept when he heard this: "Poor! Wretched! It's 'people who leave their hometowns'! Since I was a child, I have never eaten meat and done evil, nor did I dare to slander the Dharma and hurt the Buddha. Belch! Wretched! Wretched! I don't know which life I touched heaven and earth, so that I will not meet a lover in this life! - Monk, why did you say such unpleasant things and make us 'squat' in the front corridor? (I don't understand the meaning of the word "squat" for the time being, but the monk usually squats when he only urinates.) In order not to add ordinary thoughts, the monk is not allowed to urinate standing up. If the monkey hears of it, come in and with an iron rod to interrupt you！..That's it! That's it! As the saying goes, 'people put etiquette and music first', so I'll go and ask him in person. ”
Before Tang Seng followed up with the abbot, he saw that the monk went back to the house and took off his coat and hat, and sat in front of the table in a huff, not knowing whether to chant scriptures or write the law, Tang Seng did not dare to go in, so he could only stand in the courtyard and bow down and say in a high voice: "Old courtyard master, ** inquired!" ”
The old monk was impatient, and half-ignored and returned the salute: "Where did you come from?" ”
* It is the king of the Tang Dynasty in the east who sent to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, passing by the treasure side, asking for a night to borrow, tomorrow without committing the light of the day to go, the master of the old courtyard of Wanwang is convenient. ”
Are you that Tang Sanzang? ”
Don't dare,**yes. ”
Since you have gone to the west to learn the scriptures, why can't you take the road? ”
* I have never been to your place, and I don't know the way. ”
There are seats four or five miles west of hereThirty Mile Store, There is a restaurant and post house in the store, and it is inconvenient for me to stay here, so it is not good to keep you monks from afar. ”
The master of the courtyard, the ancients said, 'The temple is the hall of our master, and there are three liters of rice when you see the mountain gate', why do you refuse to keep me? ”
The old courtyard master was furious: "You, a monk from the traveling side, are a little flamboyant when you speak!" ”
What does Flim Flam say? ”
The ancients said, 'When the tiger enters the city, every house is closed.' Although it doesn't bite, it has a bad reputation a few days ago'. A few years ago, a group of monks came to the gate of the mountain, and when I saw that they were all dressed in rags, bald and barefoot, I invited them into the abbot, and they were entertained and sitting, and they were given clothes. How do you know that they are greedy for freedom, and they live for seven or eight years, and they never think about getting up. Even if you live, you have done a lot of things like stealing chickens and dogs, and blocking the road along the wall! Destroy the reputation of the temple! ”
When Tang Seng heard this, he knew that he couldn't stay overnight, and said secretly in his heart: "Poor! How many of my masters and apprentices are the kind of monks who have no backbone? Thinking about it, I wanted to cry, but I was afraid that the old monk would laugh at it, so I secretly tore my clothes and wiped my tears, and swallowed my anger and left the temple.
