Notes on Journey to the West (Chapter 18)

Eighteenth time? Tang Priest in Kannonji can't escape evil spirits.

Monkey left Guanyin, pressed the cloud head and turned back to the black wind tunnel. Originally, he wanted to kill all the little monsters in the cave, but he didn't expect people to run away long ago, so he had to set fire to the black wind tunnel and go back to Tang Priest.

Xuanzang was overjoyed to see the Monkey King come back with his cassock. Just now, he was wondering if the Monkey King didn't come back for a long time and took the opportunity to run away. Of course, it is not only Xuanzang who turned this page beautifully, but also all the monks in Kannonji. They didn't need to be beaten by Monkey Brother, but they saved their lives and burned incense and worshipped Buddha. Because it was already night, they slept another night in Kannonji and continued their journey the next day.

When the master and his disciples left, the monk sent them far away before coming back. At this time, it is early spring, the scenery along the way is full, and it is evening before you know it. Xuanzang saw a village ahead and planned to spend the night. With previous experience, the monkey fixed his eyes on the beautiful scenery of this village. The villagers inside were simple and kind, thought it was a good place, and went.

At the entrance to the village, Monkey saw a teenager running away with a bag on his back, grabbed him and asked, "Don't go, let me ask you a question. Where is this? "

The man broke free and said, "Stop procrastinating. I am the only one in our village who can talk." You have to drag me. "

Seeing that everyone was unhappy, Monkey said with a smile, "Don't be angry. Convenient for others and convenient for yourself. Tell me where this is. You helped me, maybe I can help you, too. "

The man kept pulling his hand back, but it couldn't come back. He jumped up in a hurry and said, "Unfortunately, my family is not angry enough, and I have to be angry with you monk, damn it!"

Monkey said, "If you have the ability to break free yourself, I won't stop you."

The man couldn't get away from twisting left and right, and he was impatient. He hit the monkey with a turtle. Monkeys, with luggage in one hand and dragging him in the other, let him fight and give him popularity.

Xuanzang couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Wukong, isn't there someone else?" If he doesn't say ask someone else, it's over. "

Brother Monkey said, "Master, it's so boring. It's so funny to ask him out. "

The man was really helpless and had to say, "Come on, come on, I can't say enough." This is the border of Tibet. Most people in our village are surnamed Gao, so they are called Gao Laozhuang. I told you, get off me. "

Monkey put his nose to his face and said, "Look, you're going out of town." I won't let you go until you tell me where you are going and why. "

The man looked helpless and said, "I'll kneel down for you. I am a servant of Gao Taigong's family. That squire has a daughter who has just turned 20 and hasn't been betrothed to anyone else. Three years ago, a demon occupied it. The monster has been a son-in-law for three years, and the squire is reluctant to drive him away. But instead of leaving, the monster kept Taigong's daughter in the backyard for more than half a year, regardless of life or death. It's not fair. Let me find a capable monk to exorcise demons. I found a few before, but it was no use, and the monster beat me away. Just now, just after Taigong scolded me and told me to go out and look for it, you stopped me. It's really unlucky. "

Hearing this, Brother Monkey smiled and said, "You are so lucky to meet me. I won't eat for nothing. Go back and tell your old man that we are holy monks sent by the Tang Dynasty in the East, and we are going to the Western Heaven to learn from the scriptures. If you have nothing to do, just hit the monster to relieve boredom. We will help you get rid of it. "

The man looked incredulous and said, "Don't lie to me, I'm unlucky enough."

Brother Monkey said, "I'm old, so I won't hide it from you. Please take us to your home quickly. "

This man has no other way. Then he took them back to Zhuang and reported them to Gao Taigong. When Gao Taigong heard that he was from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, he thought that he might really have some skills, so he came out to see him.

When Gao Taigong saw Xuanzang, he called out "Elder" and bowed down. Seeing Monkey's fierce appearance, he dared not come forward to speak.

Monkey looked unhappy and asked, "Why don't you salute?"

Gao Taigong was afraid and pointed to the servant and said, "You are going to piss me off. There is a monster at home, and you brought another tripterygium wilfordii. Are you going to rebel? "

The monkey was even more unhappy and said, "I said, I am so old." How can you live such a big age in vain and judge people by their appearances? My old grandson has many skills. I will help you catch the monster and give it back to your daughter. See if you still call me ugly. "

Gao Taigong was scared, but he said "please".

Seeing that he was polite, Monkey led the horse into the yard, tied the horse at random, moved a chair to Xuanzang's seat, and pulled a chair himself to sit down.

When Gao Taigong saw it, he said, "You're welcome, little elder."

Monkey rolled his eyelids and said, "If you let me stay for half a year, I'll be even more rude."

Gao Taigong also found a place to sit down and asked, "How are you the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Jin Dynasty?"

Xuanzang repeated the classic line again: "I am a poor monk in the eastern Tang Dynasty, and I want to go to the Western Heaven to learn from the scriptures. It's getting late when I pass by, so I want to spend the night. "

"Oh, you want to spend the night, so why did you say you wanted to catch monsters?" Gao Taigong asked.

"I'm going to stay overnight," Monkey said. By the way, let's play monsters. How many monsters do you have here? "

Gao Taigong was startled and said, "Oh, my God! One is enough, not to mention. "

Brother Monkey said, "Then tell me where this monster came from and what skills it has, so that I can help you catch it."

The old man sighed for a while and said, "We have never heard of any monsters in this village. I have never given birth to a boy. I have three daughters at home. The eldest and the second are married, and the third is called Cuilan. I said to recruit a son-in-law to support the elderly. Three years ago, a handsome boy said that he was from Fuling Mountain, surnamed pig, without father or mother, and was willing to be my son-in-law, so I agreed. When I first came in, I was very diligent. I don't need cows to plow or knives to harvest. I work at dawn, but my face is slowly deformed. "

Monkey asked curiously, "What is this?"

Gao Taigong said: "I was a fat man when I first came, a little black, and then my face turned into a pig's head with a mane at the back of my head." And I'm especially good at eating. Eat three or five buckets of rice for a meal (ten liters for a bucket, one liter is 1.5 kg, and a meal is almost 100 kg of rice). I have to eat a hundred biscuits in the morning to be full. Fortunately, this is vegetarian. If I eat meat and drink again, my family's business will become his shit within half a year. "

Xuanzang even settled the venue and said, "Hey, it's ok to eat."

Gao Taigong said, "Eating is a trivial matter, and he can do magic tricks. Every day, the wind and fog come and go, causing sand and stones to fly, and the neighborhood will not do it. " I also locked my daughter in the backyard and didn't come out for more than half a year. I must find a mage to arrest him. "

"I'll take care of it," Monkey said. I'll arrest him tonight and let him write a certificate of divorce and return it to your daughter. "

Gao Taigong said, "Well, just because I recruited such an ugly son-in-law, my reputation was ruined and I couldn't see my relatives. (This is the point. If I catch him, I don't want to divorce him, so I will kill him. "

Monkey said, "It's done! See you tonight. "

Gao Taigong was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly asked someone to put the food on the table. After fasting, Taigong asked Monkey, "What kind of person do you want? How many people do you take? "

Brother Monkey said, "I have my own family."

Gao Taigong was shocked, pointed to Xuanzang and Zhang Xi and asked, "Is that all? Can you fight monsters? "

Monkey took a stick out of his ear and turned it into a bowl. He asked Mrs. Gao fairly, "Do you think this will work?"

"okay! How many people do you want? " Taigong asked.

The Monkey King looked disdainful and said, "Why should I call someone? Just let my master talk to some old men. Watch me catch that monster and kill it. "

It is said that Taigong took the monkey to the backyard. When he saw that the gate was locked, the monkey said to Taigong, "Get the key."

Taigong said contemptuously, "Look, do you still need a key? Then what do I want you to do? "

The monkey said happily, "Look at you, I'm joking with you. Stand back. "

The monkey broke the copper lock with a stick, and the room was dark, so he asked Gao Taigong to call his daughter's name, and sure enough, someone agreed. Monkey's eyes lit up and looked inside, only to see a woman with long hair and no color in her face. She came out to see her father, hugged him and cried.

Brother Monkey said, "Cry later, cry later. I ask you, where did the monster go? "

Cui Lan said, "I don't know. Woo-hoo, he left at dawn and came back at night these days, woo-hoo. "

Monkey said, "You two go back to your rooms quickly. I'll wait for the monster here. I can't help it until it comes back. If there is, I will kill him. "

Gao Taigong was so happy that he took his daughter back to her room.

When Monkey saw that they were not here, he turned into an emerald. He went into the house and waited for the monster to come back in bed. The bed was not warm when I saw a strong wind. It's really flying sand and stones, and the monster returns with the wind. I saw a pig demon in mid-air, and it looked pitiful.

Monkey said with a smile, "I see." Brother Monkey is quite into the show, ignoring the pig demon and whining and pretending to be sick alone in bed.

The pig demon didn't know whether it was true or not, so he came and hugged Monkey Brother, and a pig's mouth was about to kiss him.

Brother Monkey said he really came to pick up my old grandson. He held the pig demon's chin in his hand and pushed it out of bed with a twist.

Pig demon got up and asked with a puzzled face, "Sister, hum, what happened today?" Do you think I'm late? "

"No?" Monkey asked.

Pig demon asked, "Then why did you push me?"

Brother Monkey said, "Look at your virtue. You will hurt me when you come back. I don't feel well today. If I'm okay, I'll open the door and wait for you to come back. Take off my sleep quickly. "

That pig demon is really obedient and really takes off his clothes.

The monkey got out of bed and sat on the toilet.

Pig demon touched the bed, saw that there was no one, and asked, "Sister, where have you been?"

Monkey said, "Go to sleep first, and I'll take a shit."

Pig demon lay down by himself.

Brother Monkey sighed and said, "Alas, it's really hard luck."

The pig demon was unhappy and said, "What do you want? Hum, why is it difficult? I ate a little too much when I came to your house, but it was also work. Didn't I do it all? Look at the beautiful clothes you wear, the gold and silver jewelry you wear, the seasonal fruits and fresh vegetables you eat. Didn't I get it all? Hey, how hard it is! "

"I'm not saying that. My parents threw bricks at me through the wall today. Throw it while swearing. " Said the monkey.

Pig demon asked, "What are you cursing?"

Brother Monkey said, "I was scolded for marrying you. It is said that you are a son-in-law who doesn't know any manners. That's it. You can't take him out to see his relatives. You come and go in the clouds and fog every day, and you don't know your last name and where you come from, which ruined their reputation. "

Pig demon said: "I am ugly, hum, but I can change if I want to be handsome." I told your father when I first came, and he agreed. Why do you say this now? " My family lives in Zhanyundong, Fuling. I look like a pig, so my last name is pig, Daming pig. Tell him if he asks again. "

Monkey exulted, so don't torture him. He confessed everything himself. Knowing the history, he is afraid that he can't hold you. Trying to stop pretending quietly, he said, "He also said that he would invite a mage to arrest you."

Hearing this, Pig Demon said, "Go to sleep! Don't pay attention to him. I have nine teeth in my hand and I'm not afraid of any mage. It was he who invited the demon Lord of Nine Days (Zhenwu Emperor, commander of the first generation of water army in heaven) to descend to earth. We are buddies and we are not afraid of him. "

Monkey replied, "He said that Monkey King Sun, who made trouble in Heaven 500 years ago, was invited to arrest you."

Pig demon panicked and said, "Really! Then I'd better go. We can't be together. "

"Why?" Monkey asked.

While dressing, the pig demon said, "You don't know. The monkey who made trouble in heaven is very capable. I can't beat him, so I'm not ashamed to be here. " Say that finish pushed the door and left.

Monkey's heart echoed with the word "Bi", showing his true colors and calling, "Where is the monster going?" ! Look who I am! "

Looking back, the pig demon almost knelt down and ran out like a gust of wind.

How could the monkey let him get away? He chased and shouted, "Run! I'll see where you're going. You run to the sky, and I will chase you to the bullfighting palace! If you run underground, I will chase you to the city of death! "

Listen to the next decomposition.
