Chapter 16 Bajie Was a Good Man
Chapter 16 Bajie turned out to be a good man
Sanzang knew that Wukong had magical powers. Since he said this, there must be something fishy. He stopped his horse first, turned his head and was about to ask, when he heard someone calling not far away:
"Lord Buddha, Lord Buddha."
It turned out to be a young man with his head wrapped in cotton cloth, wearing a blue coat, holding an umbrella and a backpack, with his waistband tied up and trousers, and a pair of three-eared straw sandals running towards him.
"Can Lord Buddha subdue demons?" The young man approached and asked loudly.
"What calamity do you have, why do you ask so?"
Hearing his reaction, the young man guessed that he was a monk with magical powers and said:
"I am a member of Grandpa Gao's family, and my name is Gao Cai. My Grandpa has a daughter who is twenty years old. Three years ago, Grandpa wanted a son-in-law, and he didn't want to attract a goblin.
The grandfather said that his daughter was betrothed to a goblin and was ruining the family, so he wanted to break off the marriage. The goblin refused to back off, so he locked the young lady in the back house and would not let her out to see her family again.
Taigong was looking for a mage, and he invited three or four people one after another. He was unable to subjugate the goblin, and even took his own life. Taigong taught me to go and invite a good mage, and I accidentally bumped into the Buddha when I went out!"
Sanzang had doubts after hearing this, and thought for a long time before saying: "Let's go to your house first and have a look!"
Gao Cai was overjoyed and led Sanzang and the two back. Soon they entered the house and walked up to the central hall. By chance, they bumped into Gao Taigong.
The Taigong scolded: "You unruly beast, why didn't you go look for me and why did you come back?"
"Grandpa, I am very happy. When I went out, I met an eminent monk. Please come in."
Gao Taigong didn't believe it and frowned: "Where?"
The daughter of the king was anxious to find Zhu Bajie and rushed up and said: "Here!"
When Gao Taigong saw this, he was shocked and scolded Gao Cai, "You guys, there is a pig-headed monster at home and you can't get rid of it. Why did you lead this monkey-headed monster to harm me?"
When the daughter of the king heard this, his face immediately darkened, "You have wasted your age, why do you judge people by their appearance?"
Seeing this scene, Sanzang hurriedly came to the rescue: "Donor, you are mistaken. Her name is Sun Wukong, and she is the best at subduing demons and slaying demons!"
Seeing that he was handsome and elegant, Gao Taigong relaxed a little, braced himself, and shouted "Please come in."
The daughter of the king knew that he was ugly, and she wanted to know Zhu Bajie's whereabouts, so she ignored him and followed everyone into the house.
As soon as he sat down, Gao Taigong asked: "You monkey, are you really good at subduing demons? I see that you are as skinny as a stick and less than one meter tall. You can knock down and kill any strong man. Can you subdue demons? Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
His eyes were full of contempt.
Gao Cai was also sarcastic. He originally thought that the one riding the white horse and holding the Zen staff was a capable person, but he didn't want the monkey to rush in front now. He was afraid of being punished by the master, and began to regret inviting them in.
Sanzang said quickly: "She is really tens of thousands of times stronger than me. Don't believe it, old donor."
Gao Taigong still looked unbelieving. He looked carefully and saw that Sanzang had thin skin and tender flesh and Sun Wukong was small. He had to say: "I'm afraid that you will be eaten by monsters and increase my sins. Hey, I'm not in vain either."
Please come in, my dear friends, give them some biscuits, and let them go!"
Old Mrs. Gao felt a little distressed: "You're even using coarse cakes to cheat people out of food and drink. A rotten bun is enough."
The daughter of the king was furious when he heard this. He took out the wish-fulfilling stick from his ear and threw it away.
The stick immediately became thicker, breaking more than a dozen big trees, and shattering a huge boulder ten feet high, before returning to the side.
She shouted: "Get bigger!"
The wish-fulfilling stick moved with the sound, growing high into the sky, and did not stop until it submerged into the clouds.
They were so frightened that their legs were so weak that Gao Taigong and his wife fell to the ground, exclaiming: "What a magical power! The three or five gods before us put together are not even as good as Elder Monkey!"
After saying this, he hurriedly got up and kowtowed to his daughter, the King.
Then she asked: "How many monsters are there in your house?"
Gao Taigong trembled when he heard this: "Oh my God! How much more? One pig demon is enough to make people panic!"
When the queen heard that it was a pig monster, she was extremely happy. She was about to ask, but Sanzang interrupted her, "I heard from your servant that the monster was your son-in-law. Why did you drive him away now?"
Taigong Gao wiped his tears and said: "I am unfortunate enough to have no children, but only a daughter. I need to find a son-in-law to support me in my retirement."
Three years ago, there was a strong black man who said he had no parents or brothers and wanted to be a son-in-law. Seeing such a man, I recruited him.
Half a year ago, he suddenly transformed into a pitch-black pig-headed form, only then did he realize he was a monster!"
Hearing this, the daughter of the king asked curiously, "Then he has lived here for two and a half years, and you have never discovered it?"
When Gao Taizong was about to answer, Gao Cai said: "When he entered the house, he was very diligent. He not only plowed the fields and harvested wheat, but also opened up new wasteland, built canals, and built this courtyard with three entrances and three exits.
, In addition to growing food, he also grows fruits! The granary at home is full, and the family is getting richer and richer. Who would guess that such a diligent person is a monster? "
Gao Taigong glared at Gao Cai, stopped what he was saying, and said: "He is capable of doing things, but he also eats a lot. A meal requires three to five buckets of rice, and a hundred or so biscuits are enough for a morning snack. Fortunately, he is fasting."
As a vegetarian, if you continue to eat meat and wine, you will eat up all your family property and property, such as Lao Zhuo, in less than half a year!"
Sanzang said: "Just because he did it, he ate it. You shouldn't blame him so much!"
Gao Taigong sighed: "If it were just like this, he would just have to live a makeshift life. But half a year ago, he got drunk and a fat, black man suddenly turned into a man with a long mouth and big ears, and a streak on the back of his head.
The mane is rough, the body is rough and scary, and the head and face look like a black pig.
When he showed his true appearance, he never changed back again. People in the village were afraid of him and did not dare to associate with my family. That’s why I wanted to drive him away! Who would have thought that he got angry and locked up my daughter for half a year, and she didn’t even know she was dead.
It's alive.
The two elders must help Lao Zhuo kill it!"
Hearing this, the daughter king also heard something strange, and just said: "He has never killed you, unlike an evil monster, but you actually asked me to kill him! Why don't you take me to see your daughter, I will ask her first
.”
"My God, if I can take you in, why should I ask someone to subdue the demon? Besides, if you look like a thunderous man, you can't go to see my daughter and frighten her."
The queen looked unhappy, suppressed the anger in her heart, stood up, and transformed into a daughter: "Does this look like your daughter?"
"Yes!" Gao Taigong is from the Appearance Association. He was very excited when he saw the monkey look like this.
The queen didn't have a good face and asked Gao Cai to take her directly to the back house.
When I arrived at a courtyard, I saw a high wall and a strong door blocking people, and there was also a barrier set up by the pig demon. Ordinary people could not get in even if they climbed over the wall.
"Gaocai, please wait for me. I'll go in and take a look." After saying this, his daughter, the King, turned into a stream of light and slipped in through the crack in the door.
Gao Cai was surprised and happy when he saw it, and crawled back to report it to his grandfather.
The daughter of the king entered the courtyard and looked around, a little surprised.
The courtyard is hazy, with green flowers and trees. The roads are clean and the gates are neat. Birds fly with red stamens in their mouths and butterflies pass by.
It looks like a place where monsters imprison a girl, but it looks like the back garden of a fairy mansion.
In the corner of the yard, there is a wooden flower stand covered with wisteria, and a lounge chair is placed underneath. There is a young daughter-in-law on it, doing embroidery with needle and thread.
The young woman heard the footsteps, looked up, and exclaimed: "Who are you, and how did you come into this blessed land of Yunzhan?"
"Yunzhan Blessed Land?"
The daughter king was surprised by the young woman's words: "I have transformed into the wind and came in. I was entrusted by your father to rescue you and drive out the pig demon!"
The young woman was shocked:
"No! You girl can't listen to my bad father's words, let alone kill my husband!"
"The pig demon imprisoned you here, without any freedom, without seeing your relatives and friends, but you protected him. Is it really true that a husband and wife live in love for a hundred days?"
The young woman was furious: "My bad father told you this again! He lied to you! He picked me up just to recruit a son-in-law to support me in old age!"
The queen became jealous and started asking questions.
"My name is Cuilan. I was abandoned by my parents for some reason. Gao Taigong rescued me and raised me until I was 12 years old. I wanted to find a son-in-law to support me. But he wanted too many gifts and a fatherless man. Where can I find him?
, it was not until three years ago, when I was 17 years old, that I found my husband.
When my husband married into the Gao family, he was a hard-working and uncomplaining man. With his strength, he conquered more than a dozen nearby hills to clear up wasteland, and even built hundreds of miles of canals to irrigate crops.
In two years, my bad father has gone from being a humble family to becoming rich now. He not only built a courtyard with three entrances and three exits, but also hired servants and maids to drive him around."
"That being the case, why did your father still chase the pig demon?"
"Why else? Just because the family is rich and he doesn't need anyone to support him so he can live a peaceful life, he just found an excuse to drive away my husband, and he even wanted to disturb the general order and take me as his concubine!"
When the daughter of the king heard this, he became angry and said, "What a shameless old man, look at me and kill him to seek justice for you!"
