Chapter 379: Subjugating Zhu Bajie
In the morning, Chenxiang, who had been busy all night, was still resting. He was ready to wait for his friends to come and help him find the elixir, and then activate the Lost Array at night to absorb all the medicinal power.
Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong were also ready and walked outside.
When they came to reality, as they expected, when they came out, all the immortals were ready. Guanyin Bodhisattva was shining with precious light and stared at them with a dignified face.
"Xuanzang, Wukong, where have you two gone?"
Sun Wukong touched his head, and the armor appeared instantly. He also took the golden hoop in his hand and prepared for battle.
Seeing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva muttered something in his mouth, and suddenly frowned, stretched out his hand and clicked, saying: "Is the tight hoop on your forehead fake?"
"Who told you that this is a tight hoop?" Sun Wukong took the thing off his forehead and said: "This is my gift!"
This is true. The golden headband is a gift from Guo Xiang and others to Sun Wukong.
When they heard that Monkey King was not going to wear the tight hoop, they always felt that something was missing, so they gave him a piece of jewelry similar to the tight hoop as his symbol, similar to the two small tufts on Nezha's head.
The immortals and gods present felt that the atmosphere was not right and retreated one after another. Except for the Buddhist guardians, there was no need for the heavenly gods like the Four Valued Officials to fight for such a thing.
Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned slightly, looked at Tang Sanzang with eyes open, and asked again: "Xuanzang, where did you go?"
Hearing the question, Tang Sanzang's bald forehead broke out in cold sweat. At this time, his heartbeat accelerated, and his eyes were already a little afraid to look at Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Tang Sanzang's personality is actually very timid. He is afraid of many things and will shout when encountering things, but one thing is worth affirming is that no matter how terrible the things he encountered, he did not give up the journey to obtain the scriptures, even when he was about to be steamed, he did not think of giving up.
"Ah~" Tang Sanzang took a deep breath, put his hands together, chanted Amitabha softly, and then said: "Bodhisattva, we went to a place called the Game House."
"Oh? Which immortal's temple is it?"
"He is not an immortal, just an ordinary person."
"Ordinary person?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva's first reaction was disbelief. How could they not figure out ordinary people? But looking at the expressions of Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong, they didn't seem to be lying.
Could it be the reincarnation of some powerful person? There is such a possibility.
Thinking of this, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked again: "What did he ask you to do?"
"He didn't ask us to do anything, but helped me a lot. The changes in the Tang Dynasty are also thanks to him."
"In addition, he..." Tang Sanzang hesitated for a while, but still said in a deep voice: "He also predicted everything that would happen on the way to the scriptures."
"All!" Guanyin Bodhisattva's tone was a little surprised.
Although the journey to the scriptures was a route planned by the Buddhist sect, they could not fully control everything, including the sudden situations on the road.
After all, they can't guard the pilgrims day and night, otherwise the disaster won't be effective.
But Tang Sanzang said that someone could completely predict the entire process of the journey, perhaps not even the Buddha, only the saints.
"I know." Guanyin Bodhisattva's expression became solemn, and continued: "You continue on your way."
After that, she turned and left, flying into the sky, and the four-valued officials and the five-sided Jie Di, the gods, looked at each other and left.
What a joke, Guanyin Bodhisattva has left, wouldn't they be looking for death if they stayed.
Tang Sanzang was a little confused, not knowing what the situation was now, how could he know what Guanyin Bodhisattva was thinking.
But leaving must be a good thing, and with a little relief, Tang Sanzang said: "Wukong, go and subdue Bajie, let's hurry on."
"Yes, Master!"
Sun Wukong responded, but his mood was obviously a little low. He hated the current situation of being both depressed and helpless.
It was a bit like knocking down a ginseng fruit tree, unable to heal, and unable to beat Zhen Yuanzi.
When he came to Yunzhan Cave again, Sun Wukong called Zhu Bajie out, and this time, he was serious.
He used to only like to use the golden hoop to defeat others with force, but now he used magic.
He directly opened his three heads and six arms, and at the same time he used monkey hair to transform two golden hoop sticks, he ignited the three-flavor true fire on his body and roared:
"Listen to me, you idiot! Today, I am in a bad mood. If you surrender obediently, I will spare your life. If you dare to resist, you will be reborn as a pig again!"
Gulp~
Zhu Bajie held the nine-toothed rake in both hands and swallowed silently. The Sun Wukong at this moment reminded him of the Sun Wukong who made trouble in the sky, which was really frightening.
Although there are many strong people in this world, it does not mean that Sun Wukong is not strong. Except for those few strong people who have not appeared in the world, there are indeed not many gods who can beat Sun Wukong steadily.
There are definitely some, but they definitely don't include Zhu Bajie.
"Monkey... Monkey, I..."
"Hey!"
The three golden cudgels were swung together, and Zhu Bajie's eyes widened and he shouted hurriedly: "Surrender! Surrender!"
But it was too late, the golden cudgel hit the nine-toothed rake, knocking it out and hitting the rock wall, and the whole mountain shook.
When Sun Wukong flew in front of him, Zhu Bajie quickly shook his hands and said: "Don't fight, don't fight, I am also arranged by the Bodhisattva to escort the pilgrims to the West. We are in the same group."
"Humph! Pack yourself up and follow me!"
Zhu Bajie nodded in agreement and staggered a little when he stood up. He was seriously injured in that injury. If it weren't for his good foundation, ordinary monsters would have been wiped out.
After bringing him to Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong said anxiously: "Master, let him escort you for a while, and I'll go out for a while."
"Yes." Tang Sanzang didn't say anything, but just said: "Be careful in everything."
"clear!"
After saying that, Sun Wukong somersaulted away from their sight. Tang Sanzang gave Zhu Bajie a Buddhist name and asked him to pick up his luggage and prepare to leave.
But when Zhu Bajie saw that Sun Wukong was gone, he started to be lazy. Tang Sanzang even rode out a long way away, and he was still walking slowly behind.
Tang Sanzang was not angry when he saw this. He knew Zhu Bajie's temperament, so he waited there for a while, and when he arrived, he said directly:
"Bajie, if you don't want to go get Buddhist scriptures, I won't force you to stay. Just go back to your Gaolaozhuang."
"Really?" Zhu Bajie looked very happy, walked up with his belly swaying, and asked in a low voice: "Then Sun Wukong..."
"Don't worry, I won't let Wukong catch you."
"Hey! That's great. Thank you for your generosity, master. I'm leaving now!"
Among the four monsters who learned from the scriptures, Zhu Bajie was the least motivated.
White Dragon Horse seeks scriptures because he wants to transform into a dragon again in the Hualong Pond.
Sun Wukong studied the scriptures in order to repay Tang Sanzang's kindness.
Sha Wujing studied the scriptures in order to get back on track.
The goals of these three are very clear, but Zhu Bajie is different. He likes to be a monster and does not look down on the Buddhist position. Learning scriptures has no temptation for him. He is completely forced to embark on this path.
Now that Tang Sanzang asked him to leave, he was still eager to do so.
"As long as you feel that you can escape the Bodhisattva's decree, you can leave on your own."
Hearing this, Zhu Bajie took a few steps and stopped instantly. His happy expression disappeared. He straightened his face and walked back again, saying bitterly:
"Master, let's go."
There was a hint of disappointment in Tang Sanzang's eyes, but he didn't say anything, except that the speed of the horse was slightly reduced.
