Chapter 471 Is Tang Seng's meat no longer delicious?
The Western Paradise, beside the Bade Pond.
There were two old men exuding a sacred aura, sitting cross-legged on a golden lotus platform.
These two people are Taoist Jie Yin and Patriarch Bodhi, the main and deputy leaders of the Western Sect.
There was a flash of golden light, and a golden figure descended here.
It is Tathagata Buddha.
He bowed respectfully to the two saints, Master Jieyin and Patriarch Bodhi: "Greetings to the leader and deputy leader!"
The Taoist leader opened his eyes, looked at Tathagata and said, "Forgive me!"
Tathagata Buddha then straightened up.
The Taoist priest continued: "Why did you come to see us today?"
The Tathagata respectfully reported: "To the leader and deputy leader, there has been a huge change in the matter of obtaining scriptures from the Western Heaven..."
The Tathagata then informed Taoist Jingyin and Patriarch Bodhi in detail about the disappearance of the little white dragon in Yingchou Stream.
After the two saints learned about this, they couldn't help but frowned and remained silent.
Tathagata saw the two great saints and did not speak. He did not dare to say more and could only wait quietly.
After a while.
The Taoist who received the guide waved his hand and said: "We already know about this matter, you can go back! From now on, you will solve the matter of obtaining scriptures from the West. You don't need to ask me for instructions again!"
The Tathagata Buddha couldn't help but be confused when he heard this!
The two leaders are just giving up and don't care about anything...
However, Tathagata didn't have much to say, he just waited to respectfully accept his orders.
"Yes, leader, deputy leader, I will take my leave now!" Tathagata said respectfully.
Master Jieyin and Patriarch Bodhi nodded.
The Tathagata then left the Bade Pond, leaving only two brothers, Jie Yin and Bodhi Master, here.
"Senior brother, the person who created such difficulties for Xitian to obtain scriptures must be Mr. Daolou of that day!" Patriarch Bodhi finally said.
The guide nodded: "Yes!"
After finishing speaking, the two senior brothers were speechless.
As long as Tiandao Tower is involved, the matter is beyond their control.
Last time, Patriarch Hongjun made it clear in Zixiao Palace not to offend Mr. Tiandaolou, otherwise, you will die without knowing it!
Concerning all the things that happened during the pilgrimage to the West, Taoist Master Jie Yin and Patriarch Bodhi could only let it go and could not intervene.
Mr. Tiandaolou is really too scary.
In the end, the two brothers looked at each other and could only sigh.
Unspeakably frustrating!
But I have to bear it!
…
Talk about the other side.
Under the protection of the six-eared macaques, Tang Monk had passed Yingchou Stream unimpeded, and then headed to the next place.
"Master, according to the current progress, I think we can reach the Western Heaven and retrieve the scriptures in a year and a half at most!" said the six-eared macaque who was leading the horse in front.
When Tang Monk heard this, he nodded with a solemn expression.
During this period of time, he felt that studying scriptures in the Western Heaven was just like traveling around the mountains and rivers, without encountering any difficulties.
I didn't even meet a robber on the road, let alone a monster.
Tang Monk still remembers that Master Guanyin once told him that it is extremely difficult to obtain the scriptures in the West, and one has to go through many difficulties to obtain the true scriptures.
But now it seems that there is no difficulty!
Tang Seng felt that this kind of Buddhist scriptures from the West was flashy and could not reflect anything!
Every day, apart from taking the golden bowl given by the King of Tang Dynasty to beg alms, get some food, sleep, and walk, there is nothing else to do...
Although Tang Seng was extremely confused, he still had to move on.
The ninth difficulty is to change horses in Doujian.
The tenth difficulty is to be burned by fire at night.
Losing the cassock is eleven difficult.
Conquer the Eight Precepts and Twelve Difficulties.
The yellow wind and strange obstacles hinder thirteen difficulties.
It is difficult to ask for Lingji fourteen times.
…
All these difficulties that should have existed are gone.
Master Guanyin and Tathagata Buddha, who were always paying attention to Tang Monk and his party, could not help but be anxious.
What's going on with those monsters on the way?
He actually allowed Tang Seng to pass through without any intention of taking action.
Isn’t Tang Monk’s meat no longer fragrant? !
Yes, compared to death, Tang Monk's meat is indeed not fragrant.
The monsters wanted to eat Tang Monk's meat just to seek immortality.
Damn it, you’re going to lose your life, why don’t you ask for immortality!
Therefore, after the monsters went to ask Mr. Tiandaolou for advice, they all gave up their plans to capture Tang Monk and eat his flesh.
After all, life is too important.
Daleiyin Temple.
Master Guanyin met Tathagata Buddha and said with worry: "Buddha, if this situation continues to develop, Tang Sanzang and others will not be able to experience the seven, seven or forty-nine hardships in the Western Heaven!"
"Yes!" Tathagata Buddha nodded.
Master Guanyin is right.
However, there is nothing he can do about it!
Now, even the Taoist priests and Bodhi Patriarchs don't care about the matter of seeking scriptures from the West...
Tathagata's head is huge!
…
The Western Paradise, Bade Pond.
Although the Taoist who had received the guidance before said that he would not care about Xitian's Buddhist scriptures, he had been paying attention to the matter secretly.
Tang Seng went to the West without any hindrance, which made the reception a headache.
Finally, he sighed leisurely: "It seems that the seven or forty-nine difficulties in seeking scriptures from the Western Heaven are still too many, so let's make it 21 difficulties!"
Also in Bade Pond, Patriarch Bodhi who had not returned to Xianyue Sanxing Cave in Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai, heard this and turned his old eyes and said:
"Now, Tang Seng has experienced: the first difficulty of being demoted to Jin Chan, the second difficulty of being killed at birth, the third difficulty of being thrown into the river, the fourth difficulty of seeking relatives and avenging grievances, and the fifth difficulty of subduing Liu Er. There are still fifteen difficulties to go before the twenty-one difficulties!"
The Taoist Jie Yin nodded, and it was indeed so.
The Bodhi Patriarch continued: "The twenty-one difficulties should be able to be achieved!"
Soon, the Tathagata Buddha was summoned to the Eight Virtues Pond again to meet the two saints.
They told the Tathagata Buddha about compressing the disaster of the journey to the West.
The Tathagata breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the news. He thought that Tang Seng and his men should be able to achieve the twenty-one difficulties.
...
Dongsheng Shenzhou, Aolai Country, Huaguo Mountain.
This day.
Suddenly, there was an extremely dazzling light emerging, covering the entire huge Huaguo Mountain, which looked extremely magical.
At the same time, from the sky, there were strange flowers of light floating down.
The Flower-Fruit Mountain was filled with a strong sense of Taoism...
All the plants and animals welcomed the encouragement and grew vigorously.
The monkeys felt that their vitality was rapidly improving, which was a great feeling.
They were surprised and happy.
The little white dragon Ao Lie, who was practicing in seclusion, also felt that his strength was rapidly increasing, much faster than before.
He was also shocked!
All this was caused by Sun Wukong's impact on the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian (sage).
Sun Wukong's impact on the realm of sage made the spiritual energy and the rhythm of the Tao gather towards the Flower-Fruit Mountain, so that all the creatures here also benefited greatly.
However, all the strange phenomena were blocked by the barrier outside the Flower-Fruit Mountain.
The strong men outside had no way of knowing the changes in the Flower-Fruit Mountain.
In the small cave.
Sun Wukong sat cross-legged there, his body radiating light and the power he exuded was increasing rapidly in a situation like nuclear fission...
I don't know how long it has been.
All the strange phenomena in the world returned to silence.
Roar——
Suddenly, a long and earth-shaking roar came from the Water Curtain Cave and rushed straight into the sky.
This long roar deeply shocked Ao Lie and all the creatures on the Flower and Fruit Mountain.
However, after the long roar, it was quiet again.
Time passed bit by bit.
This day.
The tightly closed door of Sun Wukong's cave was opened with a bang.
