The Monkey King

   At noon the next day, Monkey and his party arrived at the capital of Chechi Kingdom.

   It was a small city surrounded by densely packed houses on an endless field. The climate of Chechi country is cold, and half of the land is grassland, half of which is mountains and rivers, which makes this country have two completely different ways of life: farming and nomadism.

  In the season when the water and grass are lush, a large number of tents are set up around the capital, and cattle and sheep are everywhere. In the dry season, it is sparsely populated.

   Since the number of residents varies greatly with the seasons, this so-called capital city has not even built a large-scale city wall, so that most of the houses are actually exposed outside the city wall.

  The time when everyone arrived happened to be the dry season.

   Along the way, residents wearing thick robes and fur hats passed by, all of them staring at the monkeys with strange eyes.

  The canopy has been habitually transformed into a human form.

  Although the monkey maintains its original appearance and does not perform any illusions, the monkey itself has a personality, and its size is similar to that of an ordinary person. Except for the hair on its face, it is not much to be noticed.

   As for the black bear spirit, in order to reduce unnecessary trouble, it has already transformed into a human form early.

   Logically, it shouldn't be strange for such a team to walk on this trade road where East meets West.

   After wondering for a while, the monkey gradually discovered that the object of the surrounding residents was actually Xuanzang, and he could not help but sigh softly: "It seems that the trouble that should come, I can't escape."

   "Trouble? What do you mean?"

   "It's no big deal. It's just a bit of trouble you can solve. I'll go when you settle down."

   Looking back, Monkey and Tianpeng saw that Xuanzang was trying to ask for directions not far away, but all the passersby could not avoid it.

   Seeing Xuanzang was like seeing the **** of plague.

   Finally found someone willing to speak, and the man looked flustered. He opened his mouth and said: "Little master, I advise you to leave quickly. Maybe the official guards are already here. It's too late, but you can't leave if you want to!"

   "Government?" Xuanzang was stunned.

  The man wanted to say something else, but his friend beside him had already dragged him away, mumbling, "Why bother with that? Hiding people and monks are the same sins, don't you understand?"

   See you. Tianpeng frowned slightly.

   "Do you understand?" the monkey asked.

   Canopy shook his head slowly.

   for a while. Xuanzang finally gave up his plan to ask for directions and returned to the crowd in frustration.

Looking at the canopy and the monkey, Xuanzang sighed: "When I first arrived here, I heard that there are many temples in Chechi Kingdom, and the incense is flourishing. Can't ask."

  Monkey giggled: "You want to find a local monk?"

   Xuanzang nodded slightly.

   "Don't worry. You'll see you soon."

   Before he finished speaking, he heard a steady sound of footsteps in the distance, and all of a sudden, passers-by on the street consciously gave up an aisle.

   At the end of the passage, everyone saw a group of armored soldiers coming towards here in full armor.

   Xuanzang also wanted to step aside, but was grabbed by the monkey.

   "Come to get yours, I can't escape."

   "Take the poor monk? The poor monk didn't do anything wrong, why did they take the poor monk?"

   Before the monkey could answer, dozens of soldiers surrounded everyone.

  The passers-by all around looked at it from a distance, as if they had become accustomed to it.

   A man who looked like a general took a step forward with the long sword around his waist. Pointing at Xuanzang, he scolded: "Bold demon monk, how dare you disobey His Majesty's will!"

   Hearing this, everyone was blank.

  The monkey took a step forward with the golden hoop.

   Seeing that the monkey was about to make a move, Xuanzang hurriedly stopped him and said in a low voice, "I don't know if it's right or wrong, how can I hurt innocent people? Let the poor monk handle this matter."

   looked at Xuanzang. The monkey thought for a while, nodded, and took a step back.

Shaking his sleeves, Xuanzang stepped forward, folded his hands and bowed respectfully to the general, and said softly, "This benefactor, the poor monk named Xuanzang, has come from the East, and he has just arrived. Your land. I don’t know what the benefactor said of disobeying the will, what did he mean?”

"What's the matter?" The general smiled contemptuously and said, "Looking at your appearance, it does look like you just came from abroad. However, it doesn't matter. Anyway, His Majesty's will is for all monks. Since they have entered our country, they should Obey the law!"

   Hearing this, Xuanzang was about to ask what the decree was. But before he could ask the question, he saw the general stretched out his hand and shouted, "Come here, take down the demon monk!"

  Suddenly, the soldiers surrounding him rolled up their sleeves one by one and walked towards Xuanzang.

   This means to forcefully take Xuanzang.

   In this situation, how can everyone naturally agree?

   Before Xuanzang could react, everyone around him had already displayed their weapons, protecting Xuanzang in the middle.

  Black tassel spear, nine-toothed rake, magic wand...

   Seeing the opponent move the sword, the soldiers who were about to take down Xuanzang were startled, and they quickly retreated one by one, pulling out the long sword from their waists.

   The two sides suddenly became confrontational.

   Xuanzang hurriedly put his hands together, bowed again, and said, "This donor, do you know what Xuanzang did?"

The general did not intend to speak to Xuanzang at all, and after glancing at him, he pointed at the monkeys and the others and said, "The general will only take demon monks today, and this matter has nothing to do with you. Do you understand?"

  The golden hoop stopped for a while, and the monkey tilted its head in front of Xuanzang, but lowered his head and picked his nails, not even looking at the general.

   "If that's the case, don't blame the general for being ruthless!" The general snorted coldly, raised his hand, and shouted: "Take these chaotic parties together!"

   "No!"

   "Slow—!" Xuanzang called out before the two sides could rush together.

  Salute to the general for the third time, Xuanzang said softly: "The general wants to take Xuanzang, can you let Xuanzang know what he has done first? If it is reasonable. Xuanzang is willing to capture him without hesitation."

   All the soldiers looked towards the general, and the general seemed to hesitate.

   Xuanzang's side, the monkey, the canopy, the roller blind, the black bear spirit, the little white dragon, plus a Xuanzang, a total of six people. And according to his years of experience. Including Xuanzang, these six people seemed to be good players.

   On his side, including himself, there are thirty-five people in total.

   Although thirty-five versus six, it should be almost certain, but the sword has no eyes. If the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry. There will inevitably be some casualties.

Squinting his eyes and looking at Xuanzang, the general touched the hilt of his sword, tilted his head and said with a displeased face: "Your Majesty has a plan, all monks in my country of Chechi will be sent to corvée. Do you think, Does this make sense?"

  …

Hell.

   The magic circle on the altar was still running, emitting golden light. A strange "humming" sound was constantly emitted.

   The three demon kings have long since left, and at this time, only Ksitigarbha was left standing alone on the entire plain.

   Dao Dao Guanghua reflected on his face, looking like a Buddha statue that didn't know how to cry or laugh.

   A ghost hurriedly landed beside him, knelt down on one knee, and reported, "Report to the World Honored One, Venerable Zhengfaming is here."

"welcome."

   "No!"

  The ghost turned around and left in a hurry, and after a while, he led Zhengfa Ming Tathagata to fall beside Ksitigarbha.

   saluted the two of them respectively, and the ghost messenger left.

   King Ksitigarbha said nothing. Zhengfa Ming Tathagata didn't open his mouth, and just followed him to watch the magic circle.

   After a long time, King Ksitigarbha turned his face to the side and smiled, pointing to the magic circle and saying, "How about this magic circle?"

   "It's ingenious, just..."

   "Just what?"

   took a deep breath, Zhengfa Ming Tathagata said: "It's just. The soul has been brought back, but there are still many things to do. Otherwise, the soul alone is useless."

   Looking at the array, King Ksitigarbha said softly: "It's fine to lead it back. As for the rest, let's go with the flow."

   "Go with the flow?"

   "Let's go with the flow." King Ksitigarbha nodded and said: "In two days, the poor monk is going to visit Lingshan Miansheng, and he wants to invite the venerable and the poor monk to go with him."

   "Why?"

   "You'll know when the time comes."

   Zhengfa Ming Tathagata glanced at Ksitigarbha King and sighed: "I heard that for the sake of the golden cone, the golden body was lost."

   "The gold body is something outside the body. If you lose it, you don't need to think about it." King Ksitigarbha laughed softly: "Besides, even if it is lost, someone will bring it back."

"Oh?"

   King Ksitigarbha lowered his brows and said lightly, "People, I'll be there in a while."

  …

   At this time, the sun is setting in the west.

  Monkey and his party were slowly walking towards the quarry in the western suburbs, surrounded by a group of blue-faced soldiers.

This line of    is not so much an **** as it is a coercion, and it is not the soldiers who are coercing the people, but the people who are coercing the soldiers...because they did not surrender the weapons of the monkeys at all.

   It's not that the soldiers don't want to pay, but they simply don't have the ability to pay.

  The reason why the general wanted to take Xuanzang was naturally unreasonable, but Xuanzang insisted that mortal matters should be solved by mortal methods, and Monkey and others had to agree.

   As a result, everyone had to follow.

   Now comes the question. They were captured by officers and soldiers. Logically, they should dispose of their weapons first.

   But the question is, are these mortal officers and soldiers capable of taking their weapons?

   Not to mention the monkey's golden cudgel, it is the lightest, the little white dragon's sword, which is also a few hundred pounds. Even if a few people lift it, it may not be able to lift it.

   After discovering that he couldn't hold the opponent's weapon at all, the general immediately realized that he had encountered a bunch of extraordinary people, and had a faint hint of retreat.

   However, since the beginning of the matter, how to end it is up to them.

  So, things started to develop in a direction that could not be laughed or laughed.

They didn't want to take Xuanzang, but Xuanzang asked them to take him in custody according to the regulations. After some tossing, the monkey became annoyed, and he directly threatened, and even showed his hand intentionally or unintentionally, and scared the two soldiers on the spot. There was a commotion.

  The entire capital was shaken.

   Countless soldiers swarmed. After a short battle, the soldiers were so frightened that they fled, but the first general and a dozen soldiers were forced to stay behind.

   That's it, the general and the soldiers had no choice but to bite the bullet and "pull" the monkeys to the stone field in the western suburbs.

   Xuanzang finally got his wish.

   Of course, there were a lot of people who were sneaking around and watching.

   Far away, before the monkeys arrived, the soldiers guarding the quarry had already heard the wind, and they were all assembled and ready to fight.

   Those who were serving corvée also put down their work and watched from a distance, not knowing why.

   After a while, the general led Xuanzang and the others to the fence of the quarry.

   "General Xiao, open the door—!"

   No one answered, the door remained silently closed. Through the gap in the fence, you can see that there are soldiers in full armor.

  The monkey poked the general's back lightly with a golden cudgel.

   In desperation, the general had to bite the bullet and shout again: "General Xiao! Open the door! The last general brought the monk who was caught at the market today!"

   After a while, a voice came from behind the door: "No! Go back!"

The general    looked back at Xuanzang and saw that Xuanzang was still staring at the closed door, so he could only shout at the top of his voice: "No, I have to accept it!"

   "Did you think I didn't see what you did at the market today? Go back! Don't accept it! Don't accept anything!"

   Having said that, there was no response from the back of the door.

"It seems that he was at the market today and saw the situation, so he rushed back..." The general looked at the monkey helplessly. After confirming that the monkey had no intention of changing his mind at all, he swallowed helplessly, He wanted to shout again, but saw that the monkey was already dragging the golden hoop forward.

   Only heard a loud "bang", the gate of one zhang high and two zhang wide collapsed with a bang, and bursts of dust rolled.

   The spear formation behind the gate shrank back in fright, looking at the monkeys in horror.

   "Today, you have to accept it, if you don't accept it, you have to accept it!" After that, the monkey stretched out his hand and stepped on the door to walk in.

The people behind    protected Xuanzang and moved forward step by step. At the same time, the spear formation in the fence was retreating step by step.

   The bearded leader was so frightened that his face turned purple.

   "General Xiao, I've handed it over to you, I'm leaving!" The general who sent Xuanzang and the others over shouted, turned his head and ran away, even throwing away his saber. The soldiers who came with him also fled one by one.

  The soldiers guarding the quarry all swallowed dryly and looked terrified.

   "Don't come here! Don't come here!" the bearded guard shouted, waving the whip in his hand.

   However, no one was ready to listen to him.

  Monkey took two steps back slowly, and said to Tianpeng and Xuanzang: "It is estimated that the monks from the entire Chechi country are here. The defenders are just mortals, you can deal with it yourself."

   "Okay." Tianpeng nodded and said, "Bring your golden body. The underworld is the land of the Ksitigarbha King. With the golden body in hand, you also have bargaining chips."

   turned around, the monkey took the tightly wrapped golden body from the black bear spirit, and glanced back at the soldiers. Immediately afterwards, he clipped the golden body under his arm and rose into the air.

   All of a sudden, those soldiers will be even more dumbfounded.

  The bearded guard lowered his voice and said to the soldiers on the side: "Quick, go and invite the national teacher!" (To be continued~^~)
