Extra Chapter 7: Old Sun wants to make things right
The woman had known that Tang Seng was going to say this, so she smiled slightly and said:
"But you still have two disciples and protectors. You can ask them to go to the West to collect scriptures, and then go back with you on business when they come back. I guess you will have grown up children by then. This will not affect the responsibility of collecting scriptures and can also stabilize my family. How about killing two birds with one stone?"
As for being a monk at home, wherever there is a Buddha in your heart, there is a temple. Marriage and procreation are the virtues of heaven and earth. Western Mahayana teachings do not say that you are not allowed to have a family and establish a career. It is just that you take it for granted in Zen Buddhism. The so-called not being close to women is not that you don’t talk about it.
If there is no reproduction among human beings, then how can there be monks in Western religions?"
Tang Monk was at a loss for words. It is true that Western religion does not prohibit marriage and children. The so-called not to be close to women means not to be greedy for women. Just as the woman said, if you don't get married and have children, if you don't get married and have children, wouldn't that be an extinct way of thinking?
After a moment of embarrassment, Tang Monk lowered his head and said:
"The young monk promised the Bodhisattva that he must go to the West in person. The donor should find someone else."
The woman did not continue to pester Tang Seng. She smiled and said:
"Then you still have two disciples, how about letting them stay?"
Tang Seng looked at Bajie and Sha Seng with the mentality that he was not unlucky. If he were normal, Bajie's eyes would have shone brightly, but now he is steady and majestic. The most important thing is that Xiao Jiang is still beside him. He said with a righteous face:
"I also promised the Bodhisattva that I will not slack off on the way to obtain the scriptures, so I will never delay for the sake of beauty."
Sha Seng is very honest on the surface, which is what everyone who watched Journey to the West thinks, but if you think about his experience carefully, he ate countless people in Liusha River, and even wore the skulls of nine monks who went westward as necklaces, he would
Are you the kind of honest and honest person?
The purpose of Sha Monk is to go to Lingshan to gain a better status. As an old god in heaven, he has a lot of responsibilities but his status is not high. He was even found an excuse by the Jade Emperor to be tortured in the mortal world. Being able to go to the Western Heaven is a good thing for him.
Great opportunity.
On the journey to the West to obtain scriptures, Sha Monk, as an old god who has lived for millions of years, will behave honestly and courteously. That is, the time spent in obtaining scriptures is nothing at all. He only needs to endure more than ten years to gain a good identity.
Just like now, he has lived for a long time, and he has long looked down on the luxurious life and beautiful women in the world. After having status, he wants nothing. After Zhu Bajie finished speaking, he looked at the woman indifferently and said:
"My desire to learn scriptures is as strong as Mount Tai. No amount of swords, mountains or seas of fire can make me retreat, let alone talk about getting married and settling down."
The hint of approval in the depths of the woman's eyes instantly dissipated. She looked at Xiao Jiang and said:
"Guardian Sun, what about you? Are you interested in starting a family here? You are not a Buddhist practitioner, so you can definitely stay."
Xiao Jiang raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile:
"I really don't mind finding a few wives. Let alone your daughter, I can take them if you want. But I think if you marry me, do I have the final say here or do you?
If you have the final say, I am the strong one after all, and I can't do such embarrassing things. If I have the final say, then you have to sell your property and follow me westward. You must know that I promised others that Sanzang will learn the scriptures.
As a protector, I will accompany him all the way and I will never regret it.
You see, if what I say makes sense, I will make a decision. If you are willing, we will immediately get married and entertain the surrounding relatives, friends and neighbors, and then clean up the property and prepare to go on the road, or we will not talk about it, and don't waste my precious time."
The woman smiled awkwardly and said:
"Dragon protector Sun is really big-hearted. He can't help but think that my three daughters are not even going to let me go. You are making me unable to answer.
But since we are recruiting the head of the family, it must be the head of the family who has the final say, but I only want to marry a daughter. If Elder Sun only wants one, I can give you a lot of dowry to take you with you."
"One... God knows if your daughter is as beautiful as you? Madam, why don't you let us have a look at your daughter? What if Bajie and Sha Seng fall in love with one of your daughters? Even Sanzang might be tempted.
As for me, I have always had a big heart and I like anyone who is beautiful. I am even less interested in anyone who is not beautiful or whose personality does not suit me."
The woman chuckled and said:
"What Protector Sun said is absolutely true. I didn't see it.
No wonder the saintly monks, masters and disciples all refused. So, let me ask my three daughters to come out to meet the guests.
Zhenzhen Lian Lian Ai Ai, will come out to meet the guests soon..."
The woman shouted loudly, and three moving voices replied from the side hall:
"Okay mother, we are here."
Zhenzhen is gentle and sweet, Lianlian is charming and pure, and Ai'ai is playful and cute. When the three beauties appeared, Bajie and Sha Seng were surprised to see these three beauties even though they often looked at fairies.
"This is as beautiful as Fairy Chang'e."
Zhu Bajie grunted and whispered, Sha Monk nodded and said:
"She is much more beautiful than ordinary fairies. It is rare to find such a beautiful woman in this world."
As soon as the three women came out, they bowed to several people and stood behind the woman. Xiao Jiang glanced at the three women. In his eyes, the illusion of change of these three people had been seen through. Just like in the picture, the real bodies of these three people were exactly the same.
Manjushri, Samantabhadra and Cihang are the three great bodhisattvas.
"What do you think of my three daughters? You must know that my eldest daughter has just turned twenty and my youngest daughter is only sixteen. It is my luck to marry them. The most important thing is that I can give you a large dowry, and I can also go west with you.
, such good things cannot be found in the world with a lantern."
Xiao Jiang immediately agreed:
"The three girls are really beautiful and beautiful. Old Sun was so excited that he couldn't control himself. But it's really hard for me to choose between the three girls.
Well... Bajie, Wujing, Sanzang, do you want to choose? Lao Sun is very generous, you choose first. If I choose all three girls, I will reluctantly take your mother-in-law."
Xiao Jiang was talking loudly. Anyway, the Four Saints' Zen Heart Test has nothing to do with him. He just made trouble in the middle. If the task of the sub-system can be completed to the best, it doesn't matter if it can't be completed.
Just because Tang Seng became a monk since he was a child, it does not mean that he is not a man. Certain natural reactions come from biological instincts. If a man is a man, he will definitely react. If he does not react, he will be a eunuch.
Tang Monk looked at the three women and his face turned red. He didn't dare to think about it, but there were ripples in his heart. He could only lower his head and silently recite Amitabha to suppress his trance and said:
"Guardian Sun, if you are determined, I will not object. You can choose between Bajie and Wujing. I'd better forget it if you are a humble monk. This love affair between a man and a woman is a shackle for me. I vow to study the scriptures and attain enlightenment."
People in this world will never give up halfway."
Tang Seng is very determined, but it does not mean that he has no sexual desires, but he has his own persistence and can put aside matters between men and women. This is also possible for many people with lofty goals in reality.
Compared with Tang Seng, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng are not so determined. They also know that Mahayana Buddhism is not against marriage, so naturally they don't have much resistance.
