The Monkey King

Chapter 514: Wuzhuang Temple

  A ray of sunlight filtered through the clouds to illuminate the rolling mountains below.

  On the long stone steps, Qing Xin, dressed in emerald green clothes, walked step by step under the guidance of a Taoist disciple. Shi Yuxuan, who followed closely behind her, was holding a plate with three volumes of scriptures on it.

   A group of three walked step by step to the main hall of Wuzhuang Temple, only to see that the door of the hall was closed.

  The Taoist stopped and thought for a while, then turned his head and bowed to Qingxin: "I'm afraid it's the master's guest who hasn't left yet, so please wait for a while."

   Qingxin nodded silently, and boredly paced in front of the gate of the hall, looking around.

  This Five Villages Temple is a huge Taoist temple located on the top of Wanshou Mountain. It has towering walls, magnificent halls, and vast squares. There is a heroic atmosphere everywhere. Even if it is a palace, it is not an exaggeration. Even with today's mortal palaces, unless they are emperors, they can't be compared with them.

   In addition, there is a small city-state at the foot of Longevity Mountain, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Wuzhuangguan. Most of the people who lived in the city were disciples of Zhen Yuanzi. If you really want to count, there are as many as 10,000 people.

  At the beginning, Wuzhuang View of Longevity Mountain, Xieyue Sanxingdong Cave of Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai, and Kunlun Mountain were called the three major schools of mortal Taoism.

   In terms of attainments, Kunlun Mountain is at the top, Xieyue Sanxingdong is second, and Wuzhuangguan is at the bottom. In terms of disciples and influence, Kunlun Mountain ranks first, Wuzhuangguan is second, and Xieyue Sanxingdong is at the bottom.

   In general, Kunlun Mountain is firmly ranked first, although the other two factions are also known as the three major factions. But when it comes to actual strength, it is much weaker than Kunlun Mountain, and it is not widely known in the mortal world.

   However, that battle more than 600 years ago. The nine sons of Lingtai fell, and the line of Xieyue Sanxingdong almost disappeared. The disciples of Kunlun Mountain suffered heavy casualties in the battle of Heavenly Court. Only the Wuzhuang Temple of Longevity Mountain, although Zhen Yuanzi suffered some injuries and exhausted his spiritual power, and the Taoist disciples also died and injured countless people because they went to heaven for refuge, but overall their strength is still there. after the war. It has developed into a major faction as famous as Kunlun Mountains.

   for a while. The door of the hall slammed open, only to see the real Taiyi holding the whisk in his hand, and walked out of the hall in a little dejection. Seeing Qingxin, both of them were stunned.

  Qingxin hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "Qingxin sees Daoist Taiyi."

   "Qingxin?" Taiyi Zhenren hesitated for a moment, and looked at Qingxin up and down. He stroked his long beard and said, "You seem to be kind, but... when have we met?"

   "Senior Brother Taiyi, you have forgotten things a lot." Qingxin smiled lightly, and said, "My teacher is Subhuti, you and I had a relationship at the Peach Banquet."

   "Subhuti?" Hearing this, the expression on the face of the real Taiyi suddenly turned a little colder, and he sighed lightly: "So it's the person from Xieyue Sanxingdong."

   said, he turned his head and glanced into the hall, flicked his sleeves, did not say goodbye to Qingxin, took a step and walked down the steps. Don't look back.

   For a moment, Qing Xin was stunned on the spot.

"Why is this Master Taiyi like this?" Shi Yuxuan on the side looked at Master Taiyi's back, and whispered, "Although Master Uncle is not as famous as him, but he is of the same generation, so why should we meet him? "

   "Shh...he'll hear."

   Shi Yuxuan quietly covered her mouth until the real Taiyi rose into the sky and disappeared into the sky. With a flat mouth, he said leisurely, "I told him that on purpose."

"well said."

   All of a sudden, the two girls covered their mouths and giggled, and the Taoist disciples on the side frowned.

   turned his head and asked the Taoist disciple on the side with a pure heart, "Why is this Taiyi real person here?"

   "I don't know." The Taoist shook his head and said, "Uncle Taiyi came early this morning and said he was in a hurry to find Master..."

   "Oh?" Qingxin rolled her eyes and said, "It seems that the so-called emergency has hit a wall. Come, take me to see your master."

   The Taoist nodded and made a gesture of please.

   Stepping into the main hall, the two of them saw Zhen Yuanzi sitting on the main seat and holding a scroll of scriptures from a distance.

   walked all the way towards Zhen Yuanzi, looking at the hall with a clear heart, intentionally or not.

  This hall is three feet high, ten feet wide, and fifteen feet long. Eight carved dragon stone pillars, which are fully embraced by four people, are arranged on both sides. The ground is covered with a smooth brown floor, and the top is hollowed out wood carvings symbolizing the sun, moon and stars.

Except for a few futons, the twelve-sided screen behind Zhen Yuanzi, two large black incense burners placed on both sides, and a few yellow-brown futons, there is almost nothing in this hall, but it is An extraordinarily majestic feeling.

   Walking all the way to Zhen Yuanzi, the two of them cupped their hands and said, "Qing Xin (Shi Yuxuan), meet the Great Immortal Longevity."

Until this time, Zhen Yuanzi slowly put down the scriptures in his hand, looked up at the two of them, smiled lightly, pointed to the futon beside him and said, "Sit down, I just mentioned your Xieyue Sanxingdong, I didn't expect you to come."

   "Mentioning about our Xieyue Sanxingdong?" Qingxin was stunned for a moment, and said softly, "The mention of the Great Immortal Wanshou... Wouldn't it be about Senior Brother Taiyi?"

   Zhen Yuanzi raised his eyes and said, "Do you know what he is looking for with the old man?"

   Qingxin shook his head and said, "I don't know. Qingxin was just ordered to send scriptures to the Great Immortal Wanshou."

Hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help laughing out, looking at the three volumes of scriptures in Shi Yuxuan's hand, and sighing: "I originally wanted your master to send it over, so I would like to talk about something by the way. In the end, he asked you to It's here. It seems that the old guy wants to stay out of it again."

   After saying this, Qing Xin and Shi Yuxuan couldn't help being stunned, not knowing why.

   Zhen Yuanzi beckoned towards the Taoist disciples behind the two and said, "Put the scriptures away."

   The Taoist nodded, took the plate with scriptures in Shi Yuxuan's hand, and turned around and exited the hall.

   "Sit down, don't stand." Zhen Yuanzi pointed to the futon again.

  The two of them bowed to thank them and sat on the futon.

   Zhen Motoko slowly sat up straight. Youyou said: "The real Taiyi is looking for the old man, mainly because he wants the old man to come forward to clean up your brother."

   "Huh?" Hearing this, both of them opened their eyes wide and looked at Zhen Yuanzi with a bit of astonishment.

"The old man is looking for the old man Bodhi for your senior brother's business. But he is good. He taught an apprentice to make trouble all over the world, but he hides and watches the play. Don't wait until everything is settled and then come out to clean up. Saying that, Zhen Yuanzi waved his hand and motioned for another Taoist disciple standing beside the gate to serve tea.

   "I...my senior brother?" Qingxin asked hesitantly, "Wanshou Daxian refers to my ten senior brothers?"

   "Otherwise who else would there be? How many senior brothers do you have left?"

  The two fell silent.

  Others may not know that the monkey is back, but they... the Jade Emperor sent people to Subhuti every three days, can they not know?

   At most, that is, you don’t know very well.

   Not long. The Taoist brought the tea up. They gave each of them a cup, and said, "Please use tea." Then they exited the door again.

   After hesitating for a long time, he asked in a low voice, "Then, what is the Great Immortal Wanshou going to do with my senior brother?"

   Zhen Yuanzi lowered his eyebrows and asked leisurely: "He is touching the foundation of my Taoism, you say, how should I deal with this old man?"

   "It must be a misunderstanding." Qingxin smiled awkwardly and said, "My senior brother is also a member of the Taoist sect. How can you move the foundation of the Taoist sect?"

   "Are you sure he thinks he is a member of the Taoist sect?" Zhen Yuanzi asked rhetorically.

   At this question, the smile on Qingxin's face was quickly closed, and she lowered her head, her scalp tingling for a while.

  The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became extremely awkward.

Not long after, a Taoist hurried in, knelt down and kowtowed: "Report to Master, that demon monkey group has already crossed the Liusha River from Prison Dragon Beach and came here on foot. It is estimated that they will pass by in another month. Longevity Mountain."

   "Oh?" Zhen Yuanzi was stunned for a moment, and quietly glanced at Qing Xin who was on the side. Said: "If you have nothing else to do, you can go back for the time being. I have some things to do here, old man, and it may be inconvenient to entertain. Please bear with me."

   "The Great Immortal Longevity is serious." Qingxin got up and bowed respectfully, saying, "Qingxin also happens to have something important to do, so it's inconvenient to stay for a long time."

   "Then, ask the old man Bodhi on behalf of the old man."

   "Qingxin knows."

   Another silent salute. Qing Xin took Shi Yuxuan out of the door and walked towards the gate of Wuzhuang Temple.

   Along the way, Qing Xin asked in a low voice, "Do you know where the prisoner Long Beach is?"

   "I don't know, but you can ask."

   "Okay, let's go see this troublesome senior brother."

   "Huh?" Shi Yuxuan was stunned.

  …

   At the same time, Zhen Yuanzi in the hall frowned slightly and said to himself, "This old Bodhisattva asked him to deal with the demon monkey, and he actually sent this girl to me."

   "Master this is..."

   "It's nothing." Zhen Yuanzi stroked his long beard and said, "Let you come in and reveal the whereabouts of the Monkey Monkey, just push the boat along the way."

   "Pushing the boat with the current?" The Taoist hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "This disciple doesn't understand."

   Looking at the Taoist disciple, Zhen Yuanzi sighed softly, "You don't need to understand for the time being."

  …

Outside the Wuzhuang Temple, Shi Yuxuan put the jade slip in her sleeve, pointed to the place on the map in front of her where Xiniu Hezhou and Nanzhanbuzhou meet, and said, "Prisoner Long Beach is the narrowest part of the Liusha River."

After a slight pause, she continued: "However, the Taoist said that he had already passed the Prisoner's Beach and was heading here, not that he was in the Prisoner's Beach. How do you find it in such a large area? Shizun I told you not to run around... Otherwise, let's ask the Master before deciding?"

"What's so hard to find? They walk on foot, and there must be a place to stay. We'll just wait for them on the only way." Qing Xin put away the map and said with a smile, "Ask the master. , what would he let me do?"

   "If you run into a monster..."

   "If you run into the monsters, if they dare to attack, they will fight. Who is afraid of whom?"

   "Is this okay?" Shi Yuxuan frowned more and more tightly.

   "It's rare to get rid of the old man, so I didn't plan to go back directly after delivering the scriptures. Besides, when I see my senior brother, who else should approve it?"

   said, Qing Xin has already vacated and flew towards the southeast.

   Shi Yuxuan had to follow.

   Her uncle, in terms of age, is actually more than 400 years younger than her, but his cultivation is much higher than hers. What's even more peculiar is that the rapid progress in practice is not because of the aptitude of this uncle, but because she has a good teacher.

  For someone like Subhuti, who is a first-class master in heaven and earth, it is already a blessing from a previous life that other people can worship one and become disciples.

  She has two.

   One is Subhuti, and the other is the famous Taishang Laojun. And this kind of "blessing" is brought out from the mother's womb.

Shi Yuxuan still remembered that on that day, Subhuti suddenly brought back a baby girl who was just a month old from outside the Taoist temple, and publicly announced to all the disciples that this was his eleventh disciple who entered the house, and the new uncle of the disciples. .

   Before the words were finished, Taishang Laojun arrived and wanted to accept her as a disciple.

   The two were wrangling for a while, and the final result was that the baby girl was accepted as a disciple by the two great masters at the same time, and all the disciples in Xieyue Sanxingdong were dumbfounded.

Then, as the baby girl grew up a little bit, she began to run on both sides, and was taken to the 33rd Heaven to live for a few days, and then returned to the Xieyue Sanxingdong, where she was taken to the 33rd Heaven to live for a few days. Heaven, was taken back to the Xieyue Sanxingdong again...

She can use Subhuti's study as her own, she can take Taishang Laojun's elixir as much as she loves, and she can pull Taishang Laojun's beard and let Taishang Laojun praise her: "It is very powerful. Good." This was a treatment that no disciple of the two great masters had ever enjoyed when they sat down.

   is a collection of thousands of pets, this sentence is really not too much to describe this uncle.

  I really want to reveal her magical treasure house, I'm afraid that even a heavenly general like Nezha will only be jealous.

   What kind of virtue did he accumulate in his previous life, and how can he be favored by two great powers at the same time in this life?

   Shi Yuxuan really couldn't understand.

  …

   At this time, on a hillside more than a thousand miles away, Li Jingzheng personally handed the nine-toothed nail rake into the hands of the monkey, and then turned to his subordinate Tianjian to hand over the box containing the peaches to the black bear spirit.

Opened the lid and took a look, the monkey said leisurely: "It's been half a year, I thought you didn't plan to give it away, I'm just looking to see if there is time to go to the Lingxiao Palace to talk to the new Jade Emperor and teach him how to Being human."

"The Great Sage is joking." Li Jing wiped the sweat from his forehead, quickly bowed his hands, and said with an apologetic smile: "It's just that I'm busy with official business, because some things have been delayed, and in addition to this mortal world and heaven, the news also needs to be sent back and forth. Time, after all, these peaches and nine-toothed nails can only be sent by the Jade Emperor's order... I also ask the great sage to bear more."

   "Forget it, just send it." Turning around, the monkey threw the nine-toothed nail rake at the canopy standing not far away.

  The canopy caught the nine-toothed rake, danced twice, and then stood silently again, not saying a word.

"Who is this…"

"You don't need to worry about who he is." The monkey took a deep breath and said to Li Jing, "By the way, I still have something for you to check for me. The rolling blind general you wanted earlier, help me check him. Where is it now?" (To be continued~^~)
