Chapter 37 Jewelry(1/2)

 Wukong asked again, "If this guy hadn't been for the sake of Bodhisattva, I, the old Sun, would have given him a blow, and how could I be grateful to him?"

"Old Sun has been a good man since he was a child, but he doesn't know how to worship people. Even if I meet the Jade Emperor or the Supreme Lord, I just hold my hand and sing."

"This mountain god Xiaoxiao, I dare to thank him, how dare he accept it?"

Li Fu said, "Wukong, don't say that. Do you really think that as a teacher, you have no eyesight? You don't know that there is a shrine here in this land with no villages in front and no stores in the back. Is it nothing weird?"

The puzzled monkey asked, "What about Master?"

Li Fu explained, "When you are alive, you have to look at face."

"If you give Him face, He will make it convenient for you."

"Disciple, please don't think that you are so powerful that you can't rely on anyone."

"If this is really the case, how could you have been suppressed under the Five Elements Mountains in those two realms for five hundred years?"

The monkey head is thoughtful.

Li Fu never urged him.

After a long while, the master and apprentice set off towards the west.

After one trip, two months passed.

The road here is the way to peace.

There were no demons, only some jackals, tigers and leopards, and bandits in the green forest.

Time also flies so quickly.

Winter turns to spring, and even early spring.

The withered grass and trees are rejuvenated and new shoots are sprouting.

The plum blossoms have fallen, but the willow eyes have begun to bloom.

Master and apprentice enjoy the spring scenery together.

Another day of heavy rain.

Li Fu stood on the hillside, reining in the dragon and horse and watching from a distance.

He saw the shadow of towers in the mountain col in the distance, and the vague appearance of the palace.

Li Fu asked, "Wukong, where do you see in front of you?"

The traveler raised his head, put up a pergola with his hands, and took a closer look, "Master! That's not a palace, it must be a monastery. The mountain road seems far away, so I'll save my legs and feet and go there to stay overnight."

Li Fu nodded in agreement.

He loosened the reins in his hands and let the dragon horse move forward as he pleased.

The master and the apprentice arrived at the head of the mountain gate. When they got closer, they saw that it was actually a temple.

This temple is very magnificent.

The layers of palaces and pavilions are scattered in an orderly manner, with stacks of corridors interspersed among them.

Outside Sanshan Gate, thousands of majestic colorful clouds are half-blocked.

In front of Wufu Hall, there is also a bright and dazzling red mist.

Look further into the distance.

I saw the bell and drum towers rising high and the pagoda very steep.

The chirping of birds here is sparse and the sound is loud.

It has the air of a pure land on earth and a famous mountain in the world.

Li Fu got off the horse, and Wukong took off his burden.

The master and his disciples were about to enter the door when they saw a group of monks walking out of the door.

They recited sutras, knocked wooden fish with their hands, wore pure clothes, and wore gold and copper earrings.

When Li Fu saw this, he put his hands together and saluted. He stood on the marble steps and asked.

The leading monk quickly returned the gift.

He smiled and said, "It's a shame."

He asked again, "Where did you come from?"

Li Fu said, "The disciple is the monk who was sent by the Tang Dynasty in the East to go to the Leiyin Temple in the West to obtain the true scriptures. When I arrived at the temple, it was getting late, so I wanted to take a rest all night."

Hearing this, the monk said, "Please come in and sit down, please come in and sit down! Please come into the temple and drink tea with the abbot."

Li Fu walked in a square step, gracefully and elegantly, without any hurry or slowness.

Sun Xingzhe led the horse and carried the burden, and followed him.

The monk who was chatting with Li Fu felt like he was taking a breath of spring breeze. He suddenly felt a little scared. He pointed at Wukong and asked, "What is that thing holding the horse?"

Li Fu said repeatedly, "Whisper, whisper!"

"He is an apprentice! He is my apprentice!"

"He has an impatient temper. If he hears you commenting on what he is, he will get angry and it will be difficult to deal with him."

The leading monk shuddered. He bit his fingers and gnawed on his nails and said, "How can we recruit such a weirdo-looking person as a disciple?"

"In our place of Buddhism, unless you have a good color, you cannot become a monk."

When Li Fu heard this, he looked around and saw that all the monks accompanying him were of good appearance.

He said, "My eastern land, where Buddhism is not manifest, is not like a noble land."

"Besides, although my apprentice looks a bit strange, he is also very useful."

The monk nodded with difficulty and allowed Li Fu and Xingzhe to enter.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw four big characters written on the main hall:

"Guanyin Temple."

Li Fu happily said, "It's fate! It's fate! I have repeatedly felt the Bodhisattva's holy grace, and today I met the Zen monastery. This is like the Bodhisattva coming in person. I am very grateful."

When the monk heard this, he immediately ordered someone to open the door of the temple.

Li Fu thanked him to express his gratitude.

Wukong was not very polite over there. He tied up his horse and placed his luggage.

The monks in the monastery began to pray.

They all kowtowed to the golden statue.

When a monk plays a drum, Sun Xingzhe rings a bell.

Congratulations.

The monk stopped the drum sound.

However, the traveler still strikes the bell without stopping, either quickly or slowly, and for a long time.

The leading monk said, "The prayer is over, why are you ringing the bell?"

The traveler casually dropped the bell and pestle on the ground. He smiled and said, "How could you know that I am just like a monk hitting the bell every day."

At this time, all the monks and monks in the temple were disturbed by the ringing of bells.

They all shouted together, "What kind of savages are ringing the bells here?"

Wukong jumped out and said "duh" before continuing, "It's my grandson and your grandpa who bumped into each other for fun!"

Those monks have never seen Wukong like this.

Everyone was so frightened that they fell down and fell down. They all fell on the ground and begged for mercy, "Grandpa Lei, forgive me! Grandpa Lei, forgive me!"

The traveler was still disdainful, and he said there, "Lei Gong is my great-grandson!"

"Get up! Get up!"

"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!"

"We are the masters from the Eastern Tang Dynasty!"

After hearing this, the monks dared to stand up.

When they saw Li Fu, they let go of their worries and were no longer afraid.

The host in the courtyard said, "Gentlemen, please come to the Zhangzhong in the back to drink tea."

Wukong took off the reins, led the horse, carried the luggage, entered the main hall, moved to the back, and arranged the seats in order.

The master of the hospital presented tea and arranged for a meal.

It's still early in the morning.

Before Li Fu wiped his mouth and thanked him, he saw two young monks at the back door of the house, helping an old monk out.

This old monk is dressed in jewels.
