Chapter 26. White Dragon Horse
After Lu Zhi turned around and left, only half a month after returning to Wudang Mountain, he sensed that Tang Seng and his disciples had arrived at Yingchou Stream, so he set up his escape light again and came to Xiniu Hezhou.
Above a deep stream, Tang Monk and Sun Wukong's master and disciple were looking at the rushing river below the mountain stream and worrying.
Just when they passed by this mountain stream before, the originally calm deep pool below suddenly burst into waves, the rapids surged, and a huge wave was set off. A huge white shadow suddenly shot out from the huge wave, and it was like a giant wave.
Swallowed the white horse under Tang Monk's seat.
If Tang Monk hadn't been protected by Sun Wukong and snatched him out in time, even Tang Monk would have been swallowed by the white shadow!
After rescuing Tang Monk, Sun Wukong originally wanted to chase the white shadow, but the white shadow in the pool was just a probe, and he got back into the deep pool below, and even Sun Wukong couldn't catch up.
"What should we do?" Tang Monk asked anxiously, "Our luggage and documents are all hung on the saddle. If we can't find the documents, how can we go west?"
"Besides, the white horse was eaten and will no longer have any leg strength. The journey to the west is long and it will be even more difficult for the poor monk to travel in mortal form... Wukong, do you have any way to retrieve our luggage and documents?"
The document mentioned by Tang Seng refers to the customs clearance document given to him by Emperor Tang Li Shimin. It is also equivalent to Tang Seng's identity seal. It contains his birthplace and Li Shimin's personal approval.
When Tang Sengtao and his friends passed through various countries along the way to the west, they needed to pay homage to the kings of various places and have their seals stamped, so that they could pass through various countries smoothly.
And if there is no proof of customs clearance, how can Tang Seng prove his identity in the future? How can those Western countries recognize him? I am afraid that before he reaches the West, he will be regarded as a liar and arrested.
Got it!
That's why Tang Monk was so anxious and ordered Sun Wukong to retrieve their luggage and customs clearance documents.
Sun Wukong also had a troubled face and said: "Master, to be honest, I, the old Sun, can go up and down in the sky and on the earth, but only under the water...my old Sun's water properties are not very good.
I can only use 20% to 30% of my effort at most, but it’s very difficult to do.”
Tang Monk was also a little dumbfounded and said hurriedly: "Wukong, aren't you known as the Monkey King? Why are you still afraid of water?"
In fact, although Sun Wukong is indeed not good at fighting in water, it is not to that extent. After all, he was also the one who broke into the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea back then. He just... simply doesn't want to work hard.
"Master, don't panic. If it doesn't work, my disciple will turn the golden cudgel into a thousand-foot-long rod and directly disturb the pond and mountain stream. I don't believe that the man under the water won't come out!" Sun Wukong deliberately made a bad idea.
Tang Monk quickly stopped him and said, "No, no! Our luggage has also been taken away by that person. If you mess up this deep pool, our luggage will be broken into pieces."
"Then I, Old Sun, have nothing to do."
Sun Wukong has made up his mind and will never go into the water.
Tang Monk could only sigh helplessly, and then thought of something again, and said: "By the way, Wukong, Emperor Zhenwu once said that if we encounter any unsolvable difficulties on our way westward, we can go to Wudang Mountain to seek his help. Wukong
, why don't you go and ask Emperor Zhenwu to come here and help us?"
When Sun Wukong heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't want to pay attention to it, but he couldn't really be lazy... After all, Tang Monk can recite the tightening curse!
Sun Wukong responded impatiently: "Then I will send Master back to the old man's house in the back first and let him accompany you, and then I will go to Wudang Mountain for a trip."
Although Sun Wukong has no enthusiasm for traveling to the west, he still respects Tang Seng. After all, he was the one who saved him from trouble, so before leaving, he thought of settling Tang Seng first, so as not to leave Tang Seng alone after he left.
Then, I was injured by something in the pool.
At this moment, Lu Zhi's voice sounded in the ears of the two of them: "There is no need to wait for the Great Sage to invite you, I have already arrived."
Hearing this, Sun Wukong and Tang Seng hurriedly turned around and saw a golden light falling, revealing Lu Zhi's figure.
"Emperor Zhenwu."
"Emperor."
The two of them hurriedly saluted, and Lu Zhi also responded before speaking.
"I already know the situation you two are facing, and I am here just to help you and others solve their problems."
Tang Monk put his hands together, bowed and said thanks: "Thank you very much, Emperor."
Lu Zhi nodded: "Don't be anxious Xuanzang, I will ask him to show up and apologize to you."
After saying that, Lu Zhi turned to look directly at Shen Jian below, and said through a message: "Xiao Bailong, the Buddhist scripture collectors from the East are already here. What are you waiting for? Why don't you show up quickly to pay your respects?"
"hold head high!"
An exciting dragon roar sounded, and a huge water column suddenly exploded in the deep stream below. A slender white dragon, like a white dragon made of white jade, instantly rose into the sky from the water column.
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes: "It turns out to be a white dragon?"
After the little white dragon surged and soared in mid-air, it suddenly turned into a plume and fell down. It turned into a human form and landed in front of everyone. He knelt down and prostrated and said, "Ao Lie pays homage to the emperor."
"Yeah." Lu Zhi responded and said, "Okay, get up."
After Xiao Bailong got up, Lu Zhi introduced him: "This Master Xuanzang is the pilgrim who traveled to the west, and he will also be your future master. Please come and pay homage to him first."
"Ao Lie pays homage to Master!"
"This..." Tang Seng couldn't react, and turned to look at Lu Zhi, "Emperor, this Aolie benefactor?"
Lu Zhi said: "His name is Ao Lie. He was originally the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea. Because he burned the pearl given by His Majesty the Jade Emperor, his father, the Dragon King of the West Sea, went to heaven to sue His Majesty the Jade Emperor for disobedience. He was then sent to
This eagle is trapped in the Chou Stream and is trapped here."
After a pause, Lu Zhi continued: "Before, he ate Xuanzang's mount, which was actually destiny. After all, the white horse was not of mortal horse blood, so how could it carry you all the way to the West Tianling Mountain?"
"So today, I will use his white dragon body to transform into a white dragon horse to support you all the way, carrying you up to Lingshan Mountain for a hundred and eighty thousand miles. This can be regarded as giving him some merit and washing away the sins on his body.
"
When Lingshan and Tianting set the time to go west, the Dragon Clan from all over the world also had the intention to participate in order to gain some merit and luck for the already declining Dragon Clan.
And this Ao Lie is the person recommended by the Dragon Clan, but unfortunately, the four destined scripture collectors have already been decided, so the little white dragon Ao Lie has no choice but to be a mount for Monk Tang.
Speaking of which, the Sihai Dragon Clan has really declined to the extreme now, and even if it means being able to be ridden all the way for the strength of its mount, it has to endure hardships.
Lu Zhi, on the other hand, was determined to provide convenience to Xiao Bailong and the Sihai Dragon Clan behind him, but the matter had already been decided and he could not change it at will.
Therefore, he could only win the status of a disciple for Xiao Bailong, so that he would not really become a mount without a status.
After listening to Lu Zhi's story, Tang Monk looked at Xiao Bailong and said, "This... you are the body of a divine dragon and turned into a white horse. Isn't that wronged?"
A gloomy look flashed in Xiao Bailong's eyes. If he wasn't helpless, why would he bother himself?
"Master does not need to worry about his disciple. The disciple is willing to transform into a white horse and carry the master all the way to the west. This is a long way to Lingshan Mountain. The disciple is willing to use his own body to carry the master step by step to the spiritual mountain in the west!"
Seeing the little white dragon turning his head to look, Lu Zhi didn't say anything more. He raised his hand and shot out a mysterious light towards him. As soon as the mysterious light flashed, he saw a divine white dragon horse stepping out of the mysterious light, carrying a
The luggage is the luggage and customs clearance documents of Tang Monk and his disciples.
"Okay." Lu Zhi turned to Tang Monk and said, "Xuan Zang, you are heading to Xitianling Mountain. The journey is long, so don't delay any longer. Let's get back on the road."
