Seeing that his ginseng fruit tree was safe and sound, and even a little stronger than before, Zhen Yuanzi was overjoyed and couldn't help laughing.
What a blessing in disguise!
Tang Sen was also greatly relieved, this was really the best result.
Just now he was thinking about whether to use Tathagata Divine Palm to fight Zhen Yuanzi directly, and with Guanyin on their side, although they would definitely not be able to defeat him, they would definitely be able to run away.
Now, everyone is happy.
I have always respected Zhen Yuanzi, and it would be a pity if they really had a falling out.
What a sense of friendship it is for someone who holds the respected position of the ancestor of the Earthly Immortal to treat you, a young monk, to eat ginseng fruit. This was something they did wrong from the beginning to the end, although a large part of the reason was from outside the territory.
The demons invaded, but Sun Wukong became angry, and Zhu Bajie and the three of them became greedy, which was the root of the disaster.
Thinking of this, Tang Sen turned his head again and gave his disciples a severe look.
Sun Wukong and the others, who had been smiling just now, looked at Tang Sen and stared at him, and lowered their heads in shame, embarrassed to look at each other. They also knew that this matter had nothing to do with them, and they were quite embarrassed.
"Great Immortal, since the ginseng fruit tree is in good condition, the poor monk will take his leave." Guanyin Bodhisattva saw that Tang Sen was fine and that the trouble had been solved, so he wanted to take his leave and leave.
After all, as the face of Buddhism, I am very busy every day, okay?
"Excuse me, Bodhisattva, for making this trip." Zhen Yuanzi bowed his head and his tone was quite polite.
Since the ginseng fruit tree is fine, then of course it’s good for you, good for me, and good for everyone.
"Sanzang, it's a long way to the west. You have to be careful at all times and don't slack off." Guanyin Bodhisattva turned to Tang Sen and warned.
"Sister Guanyin, are you leaving now?" Tang Sen said in a rather reluctant tone.
"Yeah, let's go."
"Can you not leave?" he blurted out. This classic dialogue caught Tang Sen a little off guard. He swore that he just wanted to make a prank and didn't mean to say it.
Guanyin:???
Zhen Yuanzi:???There is something wrong with you!
"What I mean is that Immortal Zhenyuan is preparing a banquet to thank you." Tang Sen explained quickly, while giving Zhen Yuanzi a wink.
receive!
After receiving the signal, Zhen Yuanzi quickly smiled and nodded, "It's very, very true, why should I bother the Bodhisattva to make this trip in vain? This must give me a chance to fulfill my friendship as a landlord and express my gratitude.
"
Guanyin, who is skilled in this art, still cannot hear Zhen Yuanzi's polite words, but this cannot be revealed.
"No, thank you very much, Immortal, but the poor monk Nanhai really has important matters, and it is not advisable to delay. I accept my wishes. There is no need for a banquet." Guanyin also followed suit.
After saying that, an auspicious cloud rose under my feet, and I flew back to the South China Sea leisurely.
Seeing Guanyin's beautiful figure disappear into the depths of the white clouds, Tang Sen turned around reluctantly.
"Great Immortal, after wasting these days, it's time for the poor monks and disciples to say goodbye. Thank you for your warm hospitality. The bad disciples are ignorant and have caused a lot of trouble to the Great Immortal. I hope that the Great Immortal will be generous and have a lot of understanding."
Tang Sen also bid farewell to Zhen Yuanzi.
After all, it was really embarrassing to waste so much time and cause so much trouble to others.
"Hahaha, what did the holy monk say? I have always been good at making friends, not to mention that you and I were old friends in our previous lives, so why bother? This time, thanks to the holy monk, he saved my ginseng fruit tree. This kindness of poor Tao is
I have to thank Yi Er."
Zhen Yuanzi persuaded him to stay, and his words were sincere. He really valued Tang Sen. He was calm in times of crisis, knowledgeable, with a profound background and a bright future. This was the real potential stock.
"If the holy monk thinks highly of me, Zhen Yuanzi, how about we become brothers of the opposite sex today?" Zhen Yuanzi said with a sincere face.
Tang Sen:???Aren’t you sworn to Wukong? Why did it involve you?
Zhen Yuanzi was quite proud. He originally planned to become a sworn sworn disciple to Sun Wukong. Zhu Bajie was a member of Lao Jun, and Sha Wujing was a member of the Jade Emperor. After all, Xiao Bailong's status was low and could not be noticed by him. And Tang Sanzang
As a mere mortal, the best choice is naturally Monkey King, the Monkey King.
He knew that the two most critical positions in Journey to the West were Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang, and other candidates could be replaced at any time.
Most of the luck in the journey to the West is concentrated on the two of them.
And this calamity is destined for the great rise of Buddhism. Zhen Yuanzi doesn't want to use the mantis as a chariot. After all, it is just a sworn sworn thing. It can bring a lot of benefits to himself, so why not do it?
But now, he looked at Tang Sen with admiration, not only because Tang Sen saved his ginseng fruit tree, but also because he saw many shining points in Tang Sen. He never left his apprentice, was affectionate and righteous, and was calm and collected in times of trouble.
He is good at distinguishing pros and cons, and he is also the future successor of Buddhism with an extremely powerful background.
The best choice is to sworn sworn friends with such a person. Originally, the sworn vows with Sun Wukong were in name only. After that, no one knew each other. It was just a step up to the two sides. But now, the sworn vows with Tang Sen were carefully considered by Zhen Yuanzi.
of.
He believed that Tang Sen was qualified and more capable as his brother.
Moreover, he is not as violent as a monkey and is not afraid of getting into trouble.
Then again, with Buddhism and his Zhen Yuanzi as backers, there really aren't many troubles that can't be settled in the three realms, unless... those people are offended.
Sun Houhou might be able to do it, but Tang Sanzang would definitely not be able to do it. Zhen Yuanzi was still very confident.
His mind was spinning, and in an instant Zhen Yuanzi had weighed the pros and cons and the consequences of thinking.
In a word, sworn sworn relationship with Tang Sen is a very good choice, whether it is out of consideration for the overall situation or personal preference.
Tang Sen didn't know that Zhen Yuanzi had already thought so much, and he was also thinking.
But soon, he figured it out clearly that there was no harm in becoming a sworn sworn brother with Zhen Yuanzi.
"Brother, what are you talking about? I will have to rely on my brother to take care of me in the future." Tang Sen said quickly, fearing that Zhen Yuanzi would regret it.
Tang Sen's title made Zhen Yuanzi stunned for a moment, but then he started to smile. This brother is quite good, very good!
Talking to smart people saves effort.
"Hahaha, my dear brother is too modest. If you need any help from me in the future, just ask, it's all my brothers." Zhen Yuanzi happily put his hand on Tang Sen's shoulder and laughed.
I like you as such an upright brother, Tang Sen silently gave a thumbs up in his heart.
"Qingfengmingyue, come here with 10 fruits. I will treat my virtuous brother well." Zhen Yuanzi ordered.
"Ah? Master, are you still going to fight?" Qingfeng Mingyue hesitated a little. The ginseng fruit was so precious that it was sent to these monks to eat. Besides, there were only 10 of them, so the two of them were quite reluctant.
"Ah, what? Go quickly. I am very happy today. A few fruits are nothing. Let's have a banquet. My dear brother and I will get drunk before resting today." Zhen Yuanzi urged.
"Yes." Seeing the master's resolute attitude, Qingfeng Mingyue did not dare to hesitate any longer and went to pick ginseng fruits and prepare for the banquet.
Seeing the two men leaving as ordered, Zhen Yuanzi pulled Tang Sen to the main hall.
I saw that instead of enshrining the common three pure and four emperors, Buddha and Guanyin, the main hall was enshrined with a plaque. The material was quite strange, neither gold nor stone nor wood. The two characters "Heaven and Earth" were written on the plaque in ancient sacred script.
The Taoist rhyme is permeated, as if there is light flowing, and it is extraordinary.
Zhen Yuanzi turned his hand and took out two sticks of incense. He handed one to Tang Sen, who held the other.
"Brother, what is this?" Tang Sen asked, looking at the incense in his hand.
Of course he knew about incense. Countless incense were burned in the temple every year, but this stick of incense in his hand felt completely different. Holding this stick of incense, Tang Sen felt that he was getting closer to the avenue.
"My dear brother, I don't know, this is Tao Xiang." Zhen Yuanzi said with a smile, looking quite contented.
"Brother, what is Daoxiang?" Tang Sen asked nonchalantly.
"Look, dear brother." Zhen Yuanzi pointed to the "Heaven and Earth" sign on the hall.
"My treasure is called "Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth". It can see the mountains and rivers of the three realms, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. The Three Pure Ones and the Four Emperors are my contemporaries, and Tathagata Guanyin is my junior. A poor Taoist only respects heaven and earth. This incense can lead directly to the way of heaven.
, our sworn vows will be deeply rooted in the rules of heaven, and from now on we will be connected by destiny, we will share weal and woe, and we will share weal and woe." Zhen Yuanzi explained with a smile.
"Brother, this..." Tang Sen was shocked.
He originally thought that Zhen Yuanzi's sworn sworn relationship with him was the same as Sun Wukong's sworn vows, but it was just a formality. He didn't expect that he would make such a big sacrifice. You know, in the eyes of the world, he, Tang Sen, is just an insignificant mortal. Even now
His cultivation level is a bit low, but this level of cultivation is naturally not worth mentioning in the eyes of Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of the Earth Immortal.
"Absolutely not. My brother is an innate immortal and the ancestor of earthly immortals. How can he do this? Absolutely not." After Tang Sen was shocked, he quickly waved his hand and refused.
"My dear brother, don't be like this. You and I become sworn brothers, it's all about loyalty and character, it has nothing to do with status, power or background." Zhen Yuanzi consoled him.
The topic changed, "Is it possible that your disciples of Buddha look down on me, the ancestor of the earthly immortals?"
"Brother, whatever you say, I just have to obey my orders." Seeing that Zhen Yuanzi had reached this point in his words, if he didn't agree, he would really look down on him, so Tang Sen had no choice but to smile bitterly and agree.
"Heaven and earth are above. I, Zhen Yuanzi (Tang Sanzang), and Tang Sanzang (Zhen Yuanzi) have become brothers of the opposite sex. From then on, their fates are connected, and they share weal and woe. Heaven and earth will learn from this."
The two people looked solemn and said in unison, then bowed three times to complete the ceremony.
The heaven and earth treasure mirror above flashed with clear light, and the green smoke from the two Taoist incense also surrounded the two people. As the last word fell, the green light flourished, and the green smoke around the two people also merged into one body.
divide each other.
Zhen Yuanzi and Tang Sen looked at each other. They had a special feeling that their fates were really connected. From now on, they would share weal and woe, and they would be closely related.
