chapter 2(1/2)
The white mist is gentle and the purple bamboo is fragrant.
Chaoyin Cave is like spring all year round. When Fuyin came to the purple bamboo forest in the fifth world through the floating mirror in the Lotus Pavilion, the outside world here was just turning sunny after the rain.
He glanced at the sky covered with rainwater, and then moved his gaze to the martial arts arena in the southeast.
In a field paved with sand, a young man in red is wielding a metal mixing stick.
The young man has handsome eyebrows and a tall figure. Under the broken hair on his forehead is a pair of bright and tough light brown eyes.
Almost as soon as Fuyin looked over, the boy with his back to Fuyin stopped moving as if he felt something.
When he turned around and saw Fuyin, the boy's eyes instantly lit up, and a big smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The small tiger teeth on both sides and the two shallow smile pits on his face added to the air of a well-behaved and clean boy.
"Your Majesty," Mu Zha quickly put away the iron rod and ran to Fuyin in a few steps. When he spoke again, his voice was a little softer: "Are you leaving now?" His tone was respectful.
What a different kind of intimacy.
Compared with being calm in front of others, Muzha, who is already a Hui'an Walker, will appear much more lively when facing Fuyin.
However, this liveliness does not make people feel noisy. He is very smart and knows how to maintain an appropriate degree.
Fuyin nodded slightly and responded to Muzha's words.
So far, he has three disciples under his command, among whom Dharma Protector Mu Zha has the most outstanding comprehensive ability.
Mu Zha was not the first to join his army, but he was the one who stayed with him the longest among the three disciples, and was also the one who knew the most about things around him.
As a Hui'an practitioner and the second son of Li Jing, the King of Pagodas, Mu Zha has a relatively special status and has a good say in both Buddhism and Taoism.
Most of the time, Fuyin will take Muzha with him.
There were even times when he, who didn't like the excitement, would ask Mu Zha to attend some occasions on his behalf.
Mu Zha blinked his eyelashes and continued to ask: "Sir, do you need Jin Mao Hou to follow you?"
He knew that the Venerable Master wanted to fulfill the Tathagata's appointment and go to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain to enlighten the Monkey King who once made trouble in the Heavenly Palace.
The Great Sage Qitian was extremely powerful. Even if he was pinned under the Five Elements Mountain and unable to escape, Mu Zha did not want the stone monkey who knew no dignity to offend the venerable man with his unbridled words.
Although he disliked the grumpy, arrogant and unreasonable Golden Retriever very much, that guy's appearance...well...especially that primitive beast body looked quite intimidating.
With this golden-haired roar that no one except the Venerable takes much notice of, it will at least give him a more intimidating feeling that he is not easy to mess with.
Hui'an's idea was not difficult to guess. Fuyin looked at the young-looking Dharma Protector in front of him and replied calmly: "No need."
His voice was calm and calm. Although it was extremely pleasant, it was still like a calm lake: "You don't have to come with me. I can go alone."
Hearing the second part of this sentence, Muzha was a little disappointed. But he quickly adjusted his mood and asked Fuyin the reason without any words. He clasped his hands together and performed the Buddhist salute obediently: "Disciple, I will obey the master's orders."
...........
After leaving the purple bamboo forest, Fuyin walked with clouds and soon arrived at the Five Elements Mountain.
Sensing the location of Sun Wukong, Fuyin did not go down immediately. Instead, he stopped at a slightly hidden rock and watched quietly as Sun Wukong took a peach from a shepherd boy.
This peach is not particularly big. It is not comparable to the fairy peaches in the peach garden in the heaven, or even the average-quality peaches in the mortal world.
But the stone monkey was very happy when he took the peach. Under the messy hair, Fuyin could see the corners of his lips raised.
After the shepherd boy delivered the peaches, he went to herd the cows. Sun Wukong, who was holding the peach, did not eat it immediately. His eyes fell on the peach, as if he was remembering something.
The story of Sun Wukong secretly eating flat peaches spread throughout the world of immortality and Buddhism.
Fuyin didn't know if the stone monkey was thinking about this at the moment.
Compared with the peaches that can prolong life in the peach garden and this peach that is still a little green and astringent, if it is placed on a trapped person whose edges have been smoothed, he will definitely feel a huge gap.
But obviously, this does not apply to this stone monkey.
After being trapped under the Five Elements Mountain for nearly five hundred years, the Monkey King, who once caused great trouble in the Heavenly Palace and caused panic in the heavens, still remains as unruly as before.
Speaking of which, this is also the first time Fuyin meets Sun Wukong.
Although the human form of the stone monkey below has messy hair and dirty face, it is not difficult to see the handsome facial features.
It's not like a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek, but sharp edges and corners.
Although he is down and out, he is always proud.
At this moment, the position where Fuyin stood happened to be in Sun Wukong's blind spot. Fuyin could see Sun Wukong clearly, but Sun Wukong could not see him.
However, although Sun Wukong below could not see it, he could feel this unusual aura.
This aura is not the self-proclaimed and false noble aura of the Jade Emperor, nor is it the disgusting smell of Tathagata from the West, as thick as rocks.
Sun Wukong does not reject this aura, but he definitely doesn't like it.
He knew the other person was looking at him, but he didn't bother to pay attention.
Might as well eat the peach first.
The owner of this aura will always show up on his own initiative.
With this thought in mind, Sun Wukong rubbed the peach and then took a bite.
The peach flesh in the mouth is not sweet, but it is not too bad either.
Sun Wukong ate the peach very quickly and finished the peach very quickly. He threw the peach kernel out and said to Fu Yin's direction: "What, you don't plan to come out yet?"
His tone was arrogant and wanton, and there was a kind of mischievous sarcasm in his deep voice: "Is it possible that you are fascinated by watching my old grandson eat a peach?"
Even though he was trapped under this mountain, Sun Wukong was still the same Sun Wukong. His words depended on his own mood, without any regard for others.
After saying two words in succession without getting a response, Sun Wukong frowned and suddenly became impatient.
Fortunately, in the next second, before he spoke for the third time, a light golden light flashed, and the owner of the breath finally appeared in his sight.
He is a good-looking immortal, with white clothes and silver hair, standing barefoot on a lotus platform, with a delicate golden Buddha crown on his head, a dot of bright red cinnabar on his forehead, and his brows are calm and peaceful, like ancient jade that has been deposited for thousands of years.
, there is a kind of calm silence all over the body.
The Yuan is clear and the jade is clear, the clouds are sparse and the moon is pale.
Sun Wukong, who doesn't like to be wordy, subconsciously thought of the elegant words he had heard from Patriarch Bodhi at this moment.
Even if he wanted to be picky, he couldn't find a single flaw in the other person's face.
This immortal was undoubtedly the most beautiful being he had ever seen.
However, compared to the perfect appearance, the unique temperament of the other person will be more impressive. It is gentle and friendly, but also cold and distant.
Sun Wukong paused for a moment, and after quickly coming to his senses, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Hey, isn't this the Master Guanyin of the South China Sea?" His tone of voice was as casual and casual as ever, but compared to just now, there was more of a naughty element in it.
Still a lot more restrained.
Although Sun Wukong had never seen Guanyin himself before, and almost all the statues of Guanyin he had seen from other places were in the form of a female body, but now, after just one encounter, he recognized the silver-haired immortal at a glance as the famous one.
Master Guanyin.
Fuyin was not surprised to be directly identified by Sun Wukong. His eyes fell on Sun Wukong, his eyes reflected Sun Wukong's appearance, and his expression was always calm.
Sun Wukong raised his eyes slightly and met Fuyin's gaze.
Seeing that the venerable man didn't seem to want to speak first, Sun Wukong raised his handsome eyebrows and took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Where does the Bodhisattva come from and where is it going?" He asked casually, like a casual conversation.
The tone sounded like the two of them were quite familiar with each other.
Fuyin watched the change in Sun Wukong's expression and replied: "In accordance with Tathagata's appointment, I went to the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty to look for people who went to the Western Heaven to obtain Buddhist scriptures."
Sun Wukong turned his eyes when he heard this, as if he had thought of something. He changed his boring and casual state just now, and spoke in a brisk and tentative tone: "The Bodhisattva stopped here to look at me for a long time, but I
Does Lao Sun have something to do with the Bodhisattva’s trip?”
Sun Wukong's cleverness made Fuyin's lips twitch slightly, and the light smile disappeared fleetingly: "You are quite smart."
Although there is no clear answer to this question, the meaning reflected in the words is very similar.
Sun Wukong's reaction is also very fast.
After mentally confirming that this might be a good opportunity for him to regain his freedom, he instantly became more energetic and said sweetly to Fuyin: "Bodhisattva, you are so kind and compassionate. Please show me a clear way to get out of this world."
Five Elements Mountain." He even rarely used honorifics.
Fuyin did not respond immediately, but quietly stared at Sun Wukong's brows and eyes that were stained with joy and smile for a moment.
Although he had known the cause and effect for a long time, and knew that it was the destiny of the four masters and disciples to go west to obtain the scriptures, out of some subtle psychology, Fuyin still asked: "For you, what are the five elements?"
The mountain means regaining freedom?”
Sun Wukong is not stupid, he is very smart. He only thought about what Venerable Guanyin said at this time, and combined with the other person's previous words, he guessed the conditions for getting rid of the Five Elements Mountain.
eight.
From the eastern soil to the western sky, the journey is not only long, it is hundreds of thousands of miles, but there are also countless monsters, monsters, beasts and birds of prey in the barren mountains.
A monk who devotes himself to preaching sutras and reciting Buddhist scriptures all year round must have a protector if he wants this journey to go smoothly.
All he has to do is act as the protector.
After weighing it in his mind for a moment, Sun Wukong quickly gave the answer: "Anything is good, at least it is better than being pressed here."
"Okay." Fuyin nodded slightly: "Since you have made your choice, in a few days, a monk named Tripitaka will come here. You can leave the Five Elements Mountain with his help soon, but
The premise of all this is that you need to escort this monk all the way west until he retrieves the Mahayana Buddhism from Leiyin Temple."
