The corners of Xiao Jiang's eyes jumped and a wave spread rapidly. He directly sealed some of Aishwarya's memories and at the same time guided Chen Yu and Sha Wu to run over. Aishwarya was stunned for a second and then suddenly frowned and looked at her hands.
The scimitar she was carrying and the portrait in the maid's hand said:
"Let's go back. It's too noisy here. Who are these people?"
After saying that, Aishwarya turned around and went back, and the maid followed her back with a confused look on her face. Xiao Jiang curled his lips and continued eating fruit and chatting with others.
They originally planned to leave today, because the king's banquet lasted only one day. They returned to the inn at dusk with the stamped customs clearance certificate, and Xiao Jiang and others began to make arrangements to go to Lingshan.
"Dharma protector, do you think it's better to leave the children in Tianzhu for the time being or take them to Lingshan? If I take them to see the Tathagata Buddha, he will probably think that I am disrespectful. It will be troublesome if he doesn't give us the scriptures then."
In the room, after Tang Seng put Chen Yu to sleep, he came out to discuss with Xiao Jiang. Xiao Jiang didn't care. There was nothing wrong with taking the children to Lingshan with his protection. At worst, they could just leave them at the bottom of the mountain. But according to Tang Seng's words, it made sense. If Tathagata
Deliberately trying to trouble Tang Seng, this is also a big excuse.
Xiao Jiang smiled and said:
"If you stay, you can let Tianzhu officials take care of you for a day or two. Besides, although Sha Wu is young, he has the blood of Wu Jing. He has also learned a lot of spells and martial arts over the years. He is not a threat in the world, not to mention that during this period,
No one would want to mess with me, their security is very high."
Xiao Jiang is not lying. In the world of immortals, no one is willing to provoke him at this time. The people in Lingshan are indeed dissatisfied with Monk Tang having a son. Tathagata has also considered it, but he knows that if he provokes Sun Wukong, then the three realms will be destroyed.
I want peace.
Others will not look for trouble on their own. Those who can offend Xiao Jiang will not need to touch the two children, and those who can't afford it will never commit suicide and die.
Tang Monk said:
"It's better to keep them here and take them back to the Tang Dynasty after learning the scriptures. I hope Yu'er can live a peaceful life in the future."
Sha Wujing said:
"Master, Wu'er has obtained one or two points of my true inheritance. Although his cultivation is still shallow, he can still protect his junior brother here. I hope everything goes well when we enter Lingshan tomorrow, so that our merits will be complete."
Tang Monk smiled and nodded. He had been a monk since he was a child, and he was originally very persistent in learning Buddhist scriptures and saving people. Since he had a son, he gradually understood that human nature is far more important than Buddha nature.
Among them, Tang Seng was the only one whose mission was to obtain scriptures. His attachment to the scriptures he had acquired had long been eliminated. Now he was doing it more for the mission.
Tang Monk could see that if the person who was most serious about learning scriptures was Sha Wujing, he was cast down by the Jade Emperor and suffered thousands of swords piercing his heart. Lingshan gave him a chance. Although he also had a son, he did not change at all.
That is to enter the Lingshan Mountain and achieve Zhengguo.
As for Ao Lie and Zhu Gangxi, they were both forced to join the team. Their attitude towards learning scriptures was dispensable. Zhengguo was just an identity to them, and they could still live without them.
The most unique thing is of course Xiao Jiang's Sun Wukong clone. The title of Monkey King shocks the three worlds. Leaving Five Elements Mountain is the result of negotiation and not a necessity. His status is aloof and in the eyes of Lingshan, he is more important than the missionary to the east.
Much more.
The two children were left behind because Xiao Jiang was never short of money on the westward journey. Although alms along the way were still the main purpose, in reality they only fed Tang Monk and the two children. In the original work, Zhu Bajie and others also had to eat.
It is purely fictitious. Gods come down to earth one after another. It doesn't matter whether they eat or not.
Along the way, Xiao Jiang killed a lot of monsters. To raise little monsters, these monsters needed a lot of gold and silver jewelry, so Xiao Jiang got a lot of them. In the Qiankun bag carried by Zhu Bajie, there was even the treasure of Shituoling, so after someone
Where they don't suffer from lack of money at all.
The richest scripture-seeking team arrived in front of a big river as if they were traveling. Zhu Gangxi and Ao Lie stood in front of a huge stone tablet and looked at it for a while. Zhu Gangxi turned around and shouted:
"Master, Protector Sun, this is Lingyun Crossing, but how can we cross there without a bridge?"
This is a large river hundreds of meters wide. The river is turbulent. The turbid water roars and rolls forward. Xiao Jiang stared at the river for a moment and his heart moved. However, he did not say anything and jumped to a prominent cliff. On the cliff
An iron rope as thick as an arm was stretched across the river ten feet in the air. He walked along the iron rope in a circle with a smile and came back and said:
"Master Tripitaka, are you brave enough? Why don't you just walk over here."
Tang Sanzang laughed dryly and said:
"Don't tease me. How can I get there in this mortal body? But there is no ferry here, which is really troublesome."
Xiao Jiang smiled and pointed at the center of the river and said:
"See for yourself, isn't there a ship coming to pick you up?"
A group of people looked towards the river, and sure enough, a small boat was coming through the waves. Soon they reached the shore. An old boatman on the boat laughed and said:
"If you want to cross this river, you can either walk on the iron rope with a narrow chance of death, or sit on my bottomless boat. Make your choice."
Tang Monk looked around and saw that the boat had no bottom as the boatman said. The turbid water in the river could be seen through the bottom of the boat. He looked at Xiao Jiang and saw Xiao Jiang nodded and said with a smile:
"Traveling hundreds of thousands of miles, over high mountains, dangerous shoals, deserts and yellow sands, since the Dharma protector said it was feasible, Tripitaka would not hesitate even if he stepped into the sea of flames."
Tang Monk said and walked straight towards the bottomless boat. Xiao Jiang glanced at the old boatman and smiled:
"You guys get on the boat and remember to bring your luggage. For those who can't get on the boat, I will follow you."
A group of people got on the boat, and soon the bottomless boat left the shore. Tang Monk looked back and suddenly he saw a body sinking near the shore. He was slightly startled when the old boatman laughed and said:
"Congratulations to Jin Chanzi for passing away from this mortal body."
Tang Monk was stunned for a moment, but Zhu Ganghe laughed and said:
"Oh my, I used to say that the master was born in a mortal body, but I didn't expect that after crossing this river, my mortal bones were washed away. Congratulations to the master for his rebirth."
Tang Monk narrowed his eyes slightly and put his hands together with a smile and said:
"Lingshan is really magical, Amitabha..."
Is it magical? Xiao Jiang, who was following the bottomless boat, didn't find it strange at all. All the illusions in his eyes had long been seen through. The bottomless boat originally hid Jin Chanzi's true Buddha body, and the one that followed
The purpose of Yinsuo's transformation into a boatman was to replace Tang Monk's mortal body. Because Jin Chanzi and Sanzang Yuanshen were already in the process of fusion, ordinary people would not be able to notice this body change.
But none of this could be hidden from Xiao Jiang, and Jieyin never thought that he could hide it from Xiao Jiang. All this was just a trick deliberately played by Lingshan, as long as it could deceive Tang Sanzang.
