The Taoist priest and his three apprentices sneaked into an ambush at the entrance of the village, obviously wanting to retaliate against Su Yi for robbing his business. But they didn't expect Miss Duan to teach them a lesson for Su Yi.
In fact, they should be glad that it was not Su Yi himself who took action, otherwise their end would have been even worse.
When Su Yi returned to the base of the city wall, he found that the fat monk had painted the fish demon's past experiences on the city wall.
"Xuan Zang, the fish demon you met today was originally a very kind person." The fat monk said without turning his head. "In order to save a child who fell into the water, he was regarded as a human trafficker by the villagers and beat him to death.
He also threw his body into the river and let fish and wild beasts eat his body. He was so resentful that he turned into a demon and came back to take revenge on the villagers."
At this point, the fat monk turned around and looked at Su Yi seriously: "Xuan Zang, why didn't you use "Three Hundred Children's Songs" to inspire him, but instead used violence to subdue him like other exorcists? Xuanzang, you are
Don’t you have any doubts about our concept of exorcism?”
"Of course not!" Su Yi said with a serious face, "Master, I just have doubts about my own ability, so I caught him back and planned to let you, Master, demonstrate it to me in person!"
As he spoke, he took out the water drop and pinched it gently.
Wow!
As a large pool of water poured down, a man covered in red fruits fell heavily to the ground.
This is the human form of the fish demon. After transforming into a human form, it seems to have become much more honest. It lies on the ground shivering and does not dare to move.
"Master, please!" Su Yi took out "Three Hundred Children's Songs" and handed it to the fat monk with a solemn look on his face.
"You want me to show you how to use "Three Hundred Children's Songs" to exorcise evil spirits?" the fat monk asked with a strange look on his face.
"Yes, Master." Su Yi nodded, "I really don't have a clue, so I have to ask Master to give me an idea first. I will know what to do if I encounter this kind of thing in the future."
"But I'm very busy and don't have time." The fat monk didn't answer "Three Hundred Children's Songs" with a look of embarrassment on his face. "Besides, my method may not be suitable for you, Xuanzang, exorcism and subjugation of demons.
It also varies from person to person, and ultimately you still have to do your own things."
"It's better than this. I'll exorcise the demons, and Master will guide and observe." Su Yi said, "If I do something wrong or bad, or if Master you have any opinions or suggestions, you can always tell me so that I can let you know."
Disciples, please avoid taking detours."
"Xuan Zang, you have become smarter." The fat monk looked at Su Yi with a smile, his eyes full of meaning.
"It's all master's teachings." Su Yi said.
"I didn't teach you this." The fat monk muttered, "Then you start."
"Thank you Master!"
Singing to exorcise demons is as unreliable as asking a widow to give birth to a child. Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Su Yi doesn't believe it.
In the original plot, the fish demon was subdued by Miss Duan, the pig demon was subdued by Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong was subdued by the palm of the Tathagata that descended from the sky. None of them have anything to do with "Three Hundred Children's Songs".
Therefore, Su Yi extremely doubted that the fat monk asked Chen Xuanzang to sing to exorcise demons. In fact, it was a measure similar to the worldly practice of refining one's heart, rather than really expecting him to be able to exorcise demons.
So naturally he would not use such a ridiculous and funny way to exorcise demons. In order to put an end to this kind of thing, he decided to make it clear to the fat monk whether the fat monk came in person or in front of the fat monk.
I came here just to prove that this thing doesn't work.
Spreading the patched blanket on the ground, and spreading "Three Hundred Children's Songs" in front of him, Su Yi sat cross-legged, holding a hand-cranked music box, and smiled at the dull fish demon in front of him.
The latter hurriedly put on a flattering smile and looked at Su Yi's posture with twinkling eyes, obviously having a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
As Su Yi turned the rocker of the music box, an ethereal and soft melody sounded.
The melody of this music box is a fixed tune, and all the songs in "Three Hundred Children's Songs" must be sung to this tune.
"Child, child, why are you so bad? Why do you bully and deceive? Learn to be a good child and love each other; care is in the heart, full of colors. Darling, come back soon, my arms are always open for you; Darling
, you must truly repent, you will always be my favorite child..."
Su Yi sang very seriously. After all, he believed in his heart that he would only do such a boring and stupid thing once, so why not do it better?
But as he sang, the fish demon opposite him started to cry loudly.
The sound of his crying even drowned out Su Yi's singing voice, which made Su Yi have to frown and stop.
"Why are you crying?" Su Yi asked speechlessly.
"I'm so touched!" The fish demon sobbed and wiped his tears, "I'm so touched! Master, you have awakened the truth, goodness and beauty in my body. I am willing to change my ways and take refuge in my Buddha from now on. I will do good with all my heart and will not change until death.
!”
Su Yi was startled, then frowned deeply and looked at him.
He found that he had miscalculated.
His performance before was so great that he was so disgusted with this fish demon now. Not only did the latter not dare to make any resistance, but he also tried his best to cooperate with him.
He couldn't help but look at the fat monk, who looked at him with a smile and nodded with relief: "That's it, Xuanzang, very good, you have implemented our exorcism concept, although it is still a little bit behind, but as a teacher
I am very satisfied with you and I am proud of you."
"Master, he fears power rather than virtue, and surrender is just an appearance." Su Yi said.
"Xuan Zang, you're in trouble." The fat monk said with a smile, "In this world, every drink and every peck is determined by cause and effect. Only when the cause and fate meet, will the result be produced. There is never a result that can be achieved overnight. Just like you exorcise demons and subjugate them.
, and it cannot be achieved overnight. Does it matter whether he fears power or virtue? What is important is that karma and fate will happen, and the results will come sooner or later. The causes he sows now will bear fruit sooner or later in the future."
"Master, I don't understand." Su Yi sighed, knowing that his temptation had failed.
"So you are just a little bit short." The fat monk looked at Su Yi with a smile, "Go ahead, your path is not with me, you need to find it yourself."
"It's Master." Su Yi nodded and looked at the fish demon at his feet.
"Let him stay here," said the fat monk, "I will reform him for you."
"Thank you, Master."
In this way, Su Yi embarked on his second journey to subdue demons and exorcise demons, this time the target was Gaojiazhuang Zhugang Hyena.
Gaojiazhuang has long since become a wasteland, with broken walls and ruins everywhere, and only the ancestral hall on the cliffside is brightly lit.
When Su Yi arrived, he could clearly hear the bustle of laughter and laughter inside, and the air was filled with the rich aroma of meat and wine, making people want to stay here.
A flash of green light flashed in his eyes, and he had seen through everything inside. He held his breath with some disgust, opened the door and walked inside.
The ancestral hall is brightly lit, and the place where ancestors were worshipped has now been transformed into a restaurant.
The place where the ancestral tablets are placed has been turned into an oven, with golden-skinned "roast pigs" hung; the large open space in front of the oven has been built with rows of stone platforms, which has become a dining table.
The hall was full of guests at the moment, and everyone was laughing and chatting while eating roast pig, creating a lively scene.
