Chapter six hundred and ninety seventh, finally to the temple
"Oh~" Tang Sanzang sighed leisurely, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings! The incidents in the past two days are really hard to describe.
Zhu Bajie asked curiously: "Master, didn't you say that the temple is a holy place in the Kingdom of Women? How could she be willing to take you there?"
"I have introduced the Three Realms Mall to the Kingdom of Women and made a deal with His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Women."
Zhu Bajie said enviously: "Master, have you made a lot of money? First, you sell goods and then sell the Three Realms Mall. Have you robbed their merits?"
"No, I didn't make a single gold coin for my teacher."
Sun Wukong and others were all shocked and looked at Tang Sanzang. He didn't make a single gold coin. The little monk made a loss deal this time? This is not common sense! Didn't he always regard money as his life? Now that he has a daughter, he has changed his sex life?
...
Two days later, the king of the Daughter Kingdom left the palace under the escort of a group of guards, followed by Tang Sanzang's disciple.
The group walked towards the rear of Hou Palace and looked at the back of the palace from afar with a continuous mountain range, surrounded by mountains on three sides, forming a valley.
Zhu Bajie whispered with a big belly, "Look at the palace of the Women's Kingdom, it's really strange. It's actually built not far from the mountains. Are they not afraid of earthquakes and landslides?
Brother Monkey, have you checked that forest?"
"There is a small valley inside, nothing unusual. My old grandson came here when I was looking for a temple before, and my soul swept away without any abnormality."
Nezha next to him immediately turned his head and looked at Sun Wukong, and said in surprise: "Are you looking for the Temple of the Empress with the power of the soul?"
Sun Wukong said for granted: "Of course, how fast the power of the soul is. My old Sun has searched in the Kingdom of Women three times, but he did not find any trace of the temple. It can be seen that the temple is very hidden."
Zhu Bajie's mouth twitched twice, so he shouldn't have let the monkey go to the temple.
Nezha said speechlessly: "Don't you know that something involving powerful people, hidden by the secrets of heaven, cannot be discovered?"
Sun Wukong exclaimed: "The power of the soul cannot be discovered in the temple? Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Nezha said speechlessly: "This is common sense!"
"Why don't I, Lao Sun, know?"
Zhu Bajie said, "Brother Monkey, haven't your master told you this?"
"No!"
Zhu Bajie is no longer able to complain, and Brother Monkey’s master is really responsible.
...
Just as the sun was approaching, everyone came to the valley. The large army stopped. There were rocky rocks in front, strange vines and strange cypresses, and a difficult-to-get rocky path spreading inside. It was already difficult for the large team to move forward.
After putting down the siege, the king of the daughter country got off the siege with the help of the waiter, looking ahead and saying, "Brother Yu, there is a temple ahead, I will lead you there."
The old prime minister hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, no! The temple has not been worshipped for a long time, so there may be danger."
The king of the Kingdom of Women looked at Tang Sanzang with a smile and said, "Brother Yudi will protect me, right?"
Tang Sanzang hesitated for a moment and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, our journey may also encounter dangers, so you should go back first!"
"That won't work. The temple is the holy land of my daughter's kingdom. How can you let you go in at will? I'm going to see you and don't destroy it."
A burly general clasped his fists and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to go to the temple and watch over them."
The king of the Kingdom of Women shook his sleeves and said, "No, the temple cannot enter unless the king of the king."
The old prime minister thought for a moment, shook his head and said seriously: "Your Majesty, our country does not have this regulation."
"I added it, can't it be?"
The old prime minister and civil and military ministers were speechless. The king was not like this before! Why did these men become so willful when they came? They all looked at Tang Sanzang with hatred eyes, and you have ruined our king.
The king of the Kingdom of Women immediately said, "You are now back to the court and do not stay. This is my order!"
All the ministers had no choice but to bow respectfully and responded: "Abide by the order!"
The Prime Minister could only instruct Tang Sanzang: "Elder, please protect our Queen."
Tang Sanzang hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will do my best to protect Your Majesty's safety."
The old prime minister nodded and led the large army to turn and leave.
The king of the Kingdom of Women chuckled and said, "Brother Yu, you follow me!" He lifted up his skirt and walked into it step by step.
Master and disciple Tang Sanzang followed behind and moved forward carefully, fearing that Tang Sanzang and Zhu Bajie would not be able to collide.
On the mountaintop in the distance, a woman holding a pipa was staring at Tang Sanzang from afar, and a sneer came out of the corner of her mouth, saying to herself: "Jin Chanzi, you have today too. Wait until your true spirit awakens and see how you face your daughter."
The figure turned into a stream of blue smoke and disappeared without a trace. Although the Buddhist Bodhisattva ordered Tang Sanzang to be captured, this situation could only be given up. Tang Sanzang not only had Sun Wukong, but also the evil god Nezha, who forced Tang Sanzang to kill Tang Sanzang, and there was only a way out of death.
In the afternoon, the group entered the valley and came to a temple made of stones.
The stone walls are covered with moss vines, the huge stone portal is locked, and the mottled plaques are engraved with three ancient talisman characters, The Temple of the Holy Mother!
Before the king of the Kingdom of Women came to the temple, he sighed and said, "This is the temple."
Tang Sanzang said incredibly: "This... How could this Nuwa Niangniang Temple be so simple? It's even worse than a temple in a small town."
Nezha also snorted coldly, a rage arose in his heart, and he angrily said, "You are so brave. The temple of the Empress dares to be abandoned."
The king of the Kingdom of Women hurriedly said, "God forgives sins! There is a reason for this."
Tang Sanzang quickly persuaded: "Don't be angry at the gods. They must have had their own difficulties in doing this.
Her Majesty, why don’t you explain it to the God? Is there a demon who forces you?"
The king of the Kingdom of Women explained: "It's been too long, and I just know some legends.
According to legend, a long time ago, the people of our country respected the temple, and the kings of all generations were proud to guard the temple and built the palace not far from the temple.
Christmas conferences are held every year, and the whole country worships the holy temple. But later…”
"What happened later?" Sun Wukong asked curiously.
The king of the Kingdom of Women hesitated and said, "Later, the people of the Kingdom of Women gradually felt that this so-called temple had no effect on us. When natural disasters came, praying to the temple was useless, and when man-made disasters came, praying to the temple was useless. Gradually, the people lost their faith in the temple and gradually changed to worshiping the mother-child river and worshiping the spring of the fetus."
"Haha~" Nezha sneered and said, "The human race is really a realistic and forgetful creature. When the empress played chess with the heavenly way for the human race, she had the eternal protagonist in the world.
Later, the flood flooded your tribe, and it was the Empress who drew a finger into a river, blocking the flood, and also granting you the Yangquan of Creation. Yinquan of Creation as the foundation. In just so many years, you have all forgotten the kindness of the Empress, and even the Temple of the Empress was abandoned."
Sha Wujing couldn't help but say, "You are really in blessings and you don't know how to be blessed. The Xiniu Hezhou is full of demons. You can enjoy peace in such a dangerous area just because you have the honor of the empress."
