Chapter 140: Demon in Baoxiang Chinese Language (First update)
Lao Zhu snorted and said: "Stop talking nonsense and send my master out quickly. As long as my master is safe and sound, that's all. If my master hurts a hair, I, Lao Zhu, will bring the heavenly soldiers to level the demon cave of yours." !¡±
"Yes, Marshal, I will do as you are told." Kui Mulang nodded in agreement and turned back into the cave. After a while, he respectfully sent Tang Monk out. Lao Zhu noticed that a beautiful woman also sent Tang Seng away with Kui Mulang. She was probably Baihua, the third princess of Baoxiang Kingdom who was kidnapped by Kui Mulang.
"Master, are you okay? Have these monsters hurt you?" Lao Zhu walked up and asked Tang Seng.
"Bajie, why did you come here? I'm scared to death!" When Tang Monk saw Lao Zhu, he was like a child who had been abducted from home and met his relatives. He hugged Lao Zhu and cried bitterly.
"What, Master, did they hurt you? If they hurt you even a little bit, just tell me, and I, Old Zhu, will level this demon cave to vent your anger!"
"No, they haven't hurt me yet. It's just that those demons are so ferocious that they are really scary. I am scared in my heart. I have been looking forward to you coming to save me and escape from this sea of ??suffering. Now that you are here, I am very happy. of."
Lao Zhu said: "Since you have nothing to do, Master, let's go."
Tang Seng agreed: "Okay, we will follow you now. As a teacher, I don't want to stay here any longer."
Immediately, the master and the disciple left the Boyue Cave and went to the pine forest to join Sha Monk. Lao Zhu took out the vegetarian food he bought from the city and gave it to Tang Seng and Sha Seng. Both Tang Seng and Sha Seng were full of praise after eating it. Tang Monk also kept praising that the West is worthy of being close to the Buddhist land of the Western Heaven. The common people are different, and even the vegetarian meals given are so exquisite. Lao Zhu smiled and said nothing when he heard this. He bought this with real money and silver, how could the taste be so bad?
The three masters and apprentices had a fast meal, walked a few miles further out of the pine forest, found a flat and clean place to rest on the side of the road, slept in the open for one night, and set off on the road again early the next morning. After walking for several days, they finally arrived at the big city where Lao Zhu had eaten and bought food. I saw three big characters engraved on the city gate - Baoxiang Kingdom.
Only then did Lao Zhu realize that this city was the Baoxiang Kingdom. He had come to this city to buy vegetarian food in a haze and never left the city gate, so he really didn't notice it. If he had known that this city was Baoxiang Kingdom, Lao Zhu might have remembered the yellow-robed monster, and would not have had to search so hard after discovering that Tang Monk was missing.
The three masters and apprentices entered the capital city of Baoxiang Kingdom, but they saw that the avenue was wide and there were many shops on both sides of the road. There were many pedestrians walking on the street, and the whole city was bustling. The three masters and apprentices found the post house of Baoxiang Kingdom to rest after asking for directions. Lao Zhu and Sha Seng stayed in the post to rest, while Tang Seng took the customs clearance documents and other documents to the Baoxiang Kingdom Palace.
Although the Baoxiang Kingdom cannot compare with the Tang Dynasty in terms of size and national power, because there is only one capital city in the country, the capital city is quite prosperous. The palace in the city is naturally magnificent and magnificent. There are also the Tai Chi Hall, the Huagai Hall, the Burning Incense Hall, the Guanwen Hall, the Xuanzheng Hall, the Yanying Hall the golden steps of the Jade Palace in each hall are lined with Wen Guan and Wu Bian; there are also the Daming Palace, Zhaoyang Palace, and Changle Palace. , Huaqing Palace, Jianzhang Palace, Weiyang Palacethe bells and drums of the first palace wipe away the sorrow of spring. There is also a man wearing a crown and a girdle, wearing a fine appearance and riding five horses. There is also a man holding a bow and arrow, who can move the clouds and mist and penetrate the two eagles.
Tang Monk walked to the outside of the court gate and said to the palace guard guarding the door: "The poor monk is a monk from the Tang Dynasty. He came here specially to see you and exchange the customs clearance documents in the hope that he can convey them to His Majesty the King."
When the palace guard heard that he was an eminent monk from the Tang Dynasty, he did not dare to neglect him and quickly reported it to the inside. When the king of Baoxiang Kingdom heard that he was a holy monk from a great country in the Tang Dynasty, he was very happy and immediately said: "Announce his entrance."
After receiving the announcement, Tang Monk came to the Jinluan Hall, put his palms together and bowed. When the civil and military officials in the court saw Tang Monk's appearance, they all exclaimed in admiration: "He is indeed a man of great power in the country, and his demeanor is indeed extraordinary!"
The king of Baoxiang Kingdom asked: "Elder, why did you come to the Kingdom of Ignorance?"
Tang's monk said: "The young monk came from the Tang Dynasty in the East. Following the imperial edict of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he went to the Buddhist land in the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. He carried a customs clearance document with him. When he arrived in your Majesty's country, he was supposed to change. Therefore, he did not know how to advance or retreat, and he rashly alarmed Long Yan, if you have done anything disrespectful, I hope your Majesty will atone for your sins."
The king said: "Now that I have the ultimatum from the emperor of Tang Dynasty, I present it to you for viewing."
Tang Monk immediately took out the customs clearance document he was carrying with him, held it up with both hands, unfolded it and placed it on the imperial case. I only saw the customs clearance document written: "The Tang Dynasty in Nanfangbuzhou was entrusted by heaven to carry out the ultimatum of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty: Qiewei uses Liang De, inherits Pi Ji, serves the gods and governs the people, and is in a deep and weak position, day and night. I am worried. The former ?I failed to save the old dragon from Jinghe River, but was condemned by our emperor, empress, and empress. He had three souls and seven souls, and suddenly he became an impermanent guest in the underworld. Because his life was still alive, he was grateful to Lord Ming for releasing him into another life. He organized charity gatherings and built a dojo to save the dead. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who was inspired to save suffering, appeared in a golden body, indicating that there are Buddhas and sutras in the West, which can save the dead and transcend the lonely soul. It is specially written that the master Xuanzang traveled to thousands of mountains and asked for sutras and verses. If he goes to the Western countries and his good karma is not destroyed, he will follow the ultimatum and let him go. Those who need to give an ultimatum. In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, on an auspicious autumn day, an ultimatum was issued in front of the emperor. "At the end of the document, there were nine seals including the Tang emperor's seal.
When the king of Baoxiang Kingdom saw that what Tang Monk said was true, he immediately took out the jade seal of his country, stamped the customs clearance document, and handed it back to Tang Monk again. After Tang Monk received the ultimatum and thanked him, he did not just leave, but continued: "Your Majesty, this poor monk came here to exchange the customs clearance ultimatum, and secondly, to send a letter from home to Your Majesty. "
Hearing this, the King of Baoxiang Kingdom asked in confusion: "What family letter?"
Tang's monk said: "This family letter belongs to your majesty's third princess. Your majesty's third princess was captured by the monster Huangpao King in the Wave Moon Cave in Wanzi Mountain. She has been there for thirteen years and has not been able to escape. The poor monk passed by Wanzi Mountain. I met her by chance at that time, and she learned that the poor monk was passing through your country, so she wrote a letter to the family and asked the poor monk to deliver it to His Majesty the King."
It turns out that when Tang Monk was imprisoned in Boyue Cave, he met Baihuaxi, the third princess of Baoxiang Kingdom, who was reincarnated by the fragrant jade girl of Pixian Palace in heaven. Because at this time Baihuaxi has not yet understood her past life and does not know her fate with Kui Mulang. She has always regarded Kui Mulang as a monster and marrying Kui Mulang is against her will. So after meeting Tang Seng, she asked Tang Seng to send a message to her father, the King of Baoxiang Kingdom, on the condition of rescuing Tang Seng. Who would have thought that before she could ask Kui Mulang for mercy and indulge Tang Seng, Kui Mulang would be forced to surrender by Lao Zhu and send Tang Seng away obediently. However, Tang Monk was a kind-hearted Buddhist. Although he escaped from the devil's cave without the help of Baihua Sha, he still got this letter.
When the king of Baoxiang Kingdom first heard the news, he burst into tears and said in a sob voice: "Since the princess disappeared thirteen years ago, the two groups of civil and military officials have been demoted to unknown extent. There are also many maids and eunuchs inside and outside the palace. Because of this, many people were beaten to death, but they just lost their way out of the palace. I once sent people to search the city, but after searching every house in the city, I could never find the whereabouts of the princess. How did I know that she was captured by a monster. If it weren¡¯t for the messenger from the holy monk, I¡¯m afraid it would be difficult for me to know the whereabouts of my daughter in this life!¡±
Tang Monk took out the book from his sleeve and presented it. The king took it. When he saw the word "peace", he felt a mixture of sadness and joy in his heart. His fingers became weak and he couldn't open the letter, so he had to send a message to the Hanlin Academy to study in the palace. The bachelor then went to the palace, opened the letter and read it aloud to the passersby. In the letter, Baihuaxi not only told how she was abducted by the yellow-robed monster to get married thirteen years ago, but also how she missed the king in the past thirteen years. Finally, she asked the king to mobilize his troops and generals to send an army to the bowl. Zishan captured the yellow-robed monster in Boyue Cave and rescued her from the devil's cave.
After the bachelor read the letter written by Bai Huaxian, the king felt sad and burst into tears. After crying for a long time, the king stopped crying, raised his head and asked the two civil and military groups: "Since the third princess went missing thirteen years ago, I have been sad and missing you day and night, but I can't find her. Now that I know the whereabouts of my daughter, everyone." My dear, who dares to lead the troops to the Wave Moon Cave in Wanzi Mountain to rescue my beloved daughter, Princess Baihua?"
But after the king asked several questions in succession, no one among the civil and military ministers dared to respond. They all bowed their heads and remained silent, as if they were carved from wood and clay. Seeing that the king was about to get angry and go to war, the prime minister had no choice but to stand up and say: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. It has been thirteen years since the princess disappeared. Now, although I have entrusted the Tang Dynasty saint monk to send a letter back, what is the inside story? I will wait. They all know nothing. Besides, I am all mortals, but the demon is a person who comes and goes in the clouds and calls for wind and rain. How can ordinary soldiers and generals predict and contend? It's not that I don't want to serve, it is really powerless. But Dong The Tang Dynasty is thousands of miles away from our country, and there are many obstacles on the road. This holy monk can travel thousands of miles here, so he must be a man of great power. Your Majesty, why not ask this holy monk to subdue the monsters and rescue the princess? Just right?"
After hearing this, the king hurriedly turned to Tang Monk and said, "If the holy monk really has great magical power and can capture the demon and save my daughter from returning to the court, he will not have to go to the West to pray to Buddha and seek scriptures. I will come with you." How about becoming brothers, sitting on the dragon's bed together, and sharing wealth and honor?"
Tang Monk hurriedly waved his hands and declined: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. This poor monk only knows how to eat fast and chant Buddha's name. He has no means to conquer demons."
The king didn¡¯t believe it: ¡°Holy monks, please don¡¯t deceive me. If the holy monks don¡¯t have the means to conquer demons, how can you overcome all the difficulties and dangers to reach my land? How dare you go to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures?¡±
Tang Seng was forced to do so and explained: "Your Majesty does not know something. The poor monk does not have the means to conquer demons. It is just that the poor monk has three apprentices, all of whom are powerful and powerful. It is because of their protection all the way. It was only then that the poor monk was able to overcome all the dangers and come here."
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?He hurriedly asked: "I wonder where the disciples of the holy monk are now?"
"My eldest disciple asked me for leave a few days ago to go back to his hometown to visit his family, but he is not here now. The second and third disciples were left in the post house by the poor monk to rest."
"This is your fault, holy monk. Since you are coming to this country, why don't you bring the two elders to see me?" The king was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly ordered: "Come here, hurry up and go to the post with your gold medal." Pavilion, please invite the two elders of the Tang Dynasty to meet in the Golden Palace."
