Rebirth of Erlang God Yang Jian

Chapter 130: Sacrifice to Saiguo

Seeing that Tang Seng was still so confused and helpless, Sun Wukong became impatient with the other side, so Sun Wukong said: "Okay, don't think so much, let's go on the road. If you have any questions, you can ask someone on the road for advice. And how is the matter?"

After we learn from the scriptures, the truth will come to light. Since so many years have passed, why bother to rush for a while? But according to the wishes of Emperor Ziwei, the rest of our journey will become relatively easy. Let’s hurry up. I believe

We will arrive in the West soon. The truth will be revealed soon, so don’t think so much now and go on the road with peace of mind." Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha didn't want anything to happen to Monk Tang, and they didn't want him to think about things related to Emperor Ziwei anymore.

So he quickly persuaded Tang Seng to go on the road. Tang Seng thought about it and realized that this was the only way to go, so the few of them continued on their way.

The flames of the Flame Mountain have been extinguished, and there is certainly no danger for them to walk. However, the Flame Mountain has existed for five hundred years, and the flames have been burning for five hundred years, so there is no grass growing within these eight hundred miles, and not a single living thing exists.

It looked very desolate and quiet. A few people walked through the 800-mile Flame Mountain in silence.

After walking through the Flame Mountain, the environment was completely different, and we found a place with people. Several people couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. During the hundreds of miles of the journey to the Flame Mountain, the relationship between them was simply too depressing.

Now that the environment has finally changed, maybe it will be better. A few people walked for a while. Tang Monk saw a city not far ahead, so he asked Sun Wukong: "What is in front of Wukong?" Since the Flame Mountain

Later, after knowing the identities of himself and Yang Jian, although Tang Seng did not explicitly admit his relationship with Tang Seng verbally, he already believed it in his heart, so he was no longer so afraid of Sun Wukong, the person who was ordered by Yang Jian to protect him.

, he was no longer so reserved in his speech and behavior. If he had never dared to talk to Sun Wukong like this before, Sun Wukong stood up and looked around, and said: "I don't know where exactly. There is no inscription on the city gate, but it must be somewhere."

The new country, this is their capital city." Zhu Bajie said: "Brother Monkey, how do you know this is a capital city and not an ordinary city?" Sun Wukong smiled and said: "The capital city where the emperor lives is different from ordinary prefectures and counties.

Naturally, it is different. It is not only the issue of Feng Shui, but also the distribution of imposing buildings. What's more, this small country in Xibang generally has one city and one country. If you look carefully, you will understand." Tang Monk nodded in agreement, and then rode on.

Riding a white horse, he entered the city first. Seeing the magnificence of the city, Tang Monk was about to admire it. Suddenly, many monks were begging in the streets in shackles and ragged clothes, just like beggars. Although Tang Monk had already developed the concept of Buddhism

He was doubtful and felt uncertain about his own future, but he still agreed with the general Buddhist disciples. Now seeing these monks like this, he couldn't help but sigh: "The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, things hurt their own kind." Then he said to Sun Wukong: "Wukong

Go and ask what is going on? How did these people fall to such a low level?"

Sun Wukong was happy from the bottom of his heart when these monks had such an encounter. He had no sympathy for Buddhism. However, he did not like to take pleasure in others' misfortune with Tang Monk, so he went up to ask. Sun Wukong wanted to ask the monks:

"Monk Wu, how did you become like this? If you have any grievances, can you tell me?" These monks saw Sun Wukong's extraordinary appearance and impressive momentum. Although they were a little scared, they also felt that Sun Wukong might give them hope.

So an older monk said: "Grandpa, where do you come from? You seem to be a bit kind. We don't dare to say anything here. If you don't mind, come to our temple and have a detailed discussion." Tang Monk

After thinking for a while, he said: "Well, we don't have a place to stay now anyway, so why not go to their temple to stay overnight and listen to what's going on?" Then Tang Monk and his group followed a few monks to a temple.

The name of the temple is "Lejian Huguo Jinguang Temple". Tang Monk and others were even more confused when they saw this plaque. From the name, it can be seen that this should be a royal temple, but how could the monks here be reduced to such a state?

?This is incredible.

This group of monks led Tang Seng to the Main Hall and served tea. After a while, the abbot arrived here with the support of several young monks. The abbot and the young monks then met Tang Seng. The abbot was also in shackles.

Several people asked: "I dare to ask some elders, you have different looks, but you are from the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty?" Sun Wukong smiled and said: "Oh, you monk actually knows that we are from the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty?"

Come from the Tang Dynasty, is it possible that you still have some Taoism and can predict the future? But if you have some Taoism, how could you have fallen to such a state?" The abbot smiled bitterly and said: "What kind of Taoism can a poor monk have? It's just that we have suffered a lot.

Our grievances cannot be vindicated, so we beg God to save us all day long. It seems that the gods have feelings for us. So, yesterday we dreamed that the gods had taken possession of us from the Eastern Land. The holy monks of the Tang Dynasty were coming here to help us vindicate our grievances. So,

We just recognized you." Tang Seng said: "Then what grievances do you have? How did you end up in such a state? If you have anything you can tell us, we might be able to help you."

The abbot thanked him, and then said: "This is called the Kingdom of Jisai, which can be regarded as the superior kingdom of the West. A few years ago, the people were rich and the country was strong. Our Jinguang Temple is treated with all the courtesy. It is a pity that the king is stupid and the ministers are treacherous.

Therefore, although it is regarded as a holy place by the four quarters, it is actually because there is a Buddha relic on the pagoda of Jinguang Temple, which shines in all directions, making people mistakenly think that this is the residence of gods. Unfortunately, there was a disaster here three years ago.

Blood rained and the Buddha's relics on the pagoda disappeared. When the four directions saw that our relics were missing, they thought that the gods had abandoned us, so they stopped paying tribute. The king originally wanted to conquer the four directions, but was persuaded to stop.

It is said that the relics disappeared because we failed to take good care of them, so the gods abandoned us. We committed a serious crime. So the king issued a decree to let us wear shackles and beg everywhere to make a living. But what does this actually have to do with us?

We are also innocent. How could we steal relics? But the masters of the previous two generations have been tortured to death. Now we can hardly survive. Please save us." Tang Monk sighed and said, "This matter is ambiguous.

The first reason is that the government is unclear, and the second reason is that you and others were already in trouble. But since there was a rain of blood and the pagoda was defiled, why didn't you report it to the king? If you had reported it in advance, you would not have committed this crime.

"The abbot said helplessly: "We are just mortals, how can we know the will of Shang Tai Di?" After hearing this, Tang Monk shook his head helplessly, and then said to Sun Wukong: "Wukong, what do you think of this matter?" Sun Wukong

He sneered and said: "You deserve it, monks, you really think you are superior to others. You dare to make random guesses about the government, and say that the king is stupid and the ministers are treacherous. This alone can prove your guilt. You are treated like this. It is really unacceptable."

It’s unfair. I must have thought that before the relic was lost, you must have been treated with courtesy by the king, treated with superiority, and proud of others. But don’t forget that the relic is not yours, it was given by God. Now that the relic is lost with you, King

Naturally, you will be punished for your sins. Not only did you not reflect on your sins, but you slandered the king and ministers. You just deserved to die." After hearing Sun Wukong's words, all the monks in Jinguang Temple were speechless. Although Sun Wukong's words were unpleasant,

, but it is not unreasonable, and they do have certain responsibilities.

Tang Monk said: "Well, Wukong, don't blame them. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. We still come in and want to help them." Sun Wukong sneered and said: "You said

How easy can we help? How can we help? These things have been going on for several years, and even if there are clues, they have disappeared long ago. How can we help?" Tang Seng was stunned after hearing this, and finally had to say: "What you said makes sense.

, but we can't just ignore death. When I left the Tang Dynasty, I vowed to worship Buddha and sweep pagodas when I met them. Today we will go to sweep pagodas together and see what's going on. Maybe there will be some clues.

"Sun Wukong shrugged his shoulders indifferently. When the monks from Jinguang Temple saw that Tang Monk agreed to help rescue them, they quickly thanked them.

In the evening, after Tang Monk and others had dinner, Tang Monk changed his clothes, picked up a broom, and walked into the pagoda with Sun Wukong. Originally, the monk from Jinguang Temple wanted to help break open the pagoda, but Sun Wukong just blew lightly.

The lock of the pagoda automatically opened. Tang Monk walked into the pagoda and began to sweep up the stairs one by one. Sun Wukong followed Tang Monk in the back very bored and swept slowly. By the time he swept the seventh or eighth floor, it was already the second watch. Tang Monk

I was a little tired, so I asked Sun Wukong: "Wukong, does this pagoda have a total of one floor? When can we finish sweeping it?" Sun Wukong estimated and said, "There are almost thirteen floors. Are you tired? I'll go in if I'm tired.

"Sweep it for you." Tang Seng shook his head and said, "You can only show your sincerity by sweeping it yourself." Then he swept three more floors. At the tenth floor, Tang Seng was really tired from looking at the other side, so Sun Wukong smiled and took the broom to sweep it up for Tang Seng.

Got it
