Chapter 35: The Serpent Coiling Mountain and the Eagle Worrying Stream
Tang Sanzang and Monkey continued to go westward. The further away from the border of the Tang Dynasty, the more rugged and difficult the road became. Not only did they cross mountains and ridges, but they were mostly cliffs. In addition, the cold weather in the twelfth lunar month and the north wind was shaking. In less than a few days, the agile white horse had fallen ill several times.
If it weren't for the monkey who had been good at some magical powers and used methods many times, this white horse would have died long ago.
But even so, this white horse that could not take care of itself would be unable to protect itself, let alone let Tang Sanzang ride it.
"How bitter..."
Tang Sanzang patted the soil stained on Subai monk's legs, helped the Vairocana hat that was slightly crooked under the mountains and ridges, and sighed.
"Walking like this, I don't know when I will arrive at the Xitian Da Leiyin Temple..."
I have to say that if you don’t know the magical powers and escape skills, it is difficult to fly by the clouds. Tang Sanzang, who walked through the air, experienced the uninterrupted crossing of mountains and ridges for several days, is already looking forward to the appearance of the little white dragon.
For Tang Sanzang, now with the all-round thug Monkey, the most important urgent task at present is to solve the mount problem.
Suddenly, Tang Sanzang had some understanding of why after Guan Erye had the Red Rabbit, he felt that everyone was a man who had the first place to sell the first place.
This example fully demonstrates the importance of a good horse to a man.
The monkey who seemed to be leading the way in front of him and was leading the white horse was not heard by Tang Sanzang.
After several days of work, the already clever and intelligent monkey reacted, and soon felt that he was afraid that he would be cheated by this master.
As the saying goes, one is two. The monkey who needs to wash the purple gold bowl almost every day in the past few days always feels that he is insulted, so he is holding his breath in secret and has no intention of answering the conversation.
Suddenly, the monkey's round eyes turned aside, recalling the suggestions made by Marshal Ma when he returned to Huaguo Mountain, and said.
"Master, what do you think of today's vegetarian meal?"
When the monkey mentioned this, Tang Sanzang subconsciously smacked his lips.
I have to say that for several days, I have been eating wild fruits and wild vegetables with natural dew. Even Tang Sanzang, who has been accustomed to eating vegetarian food for several years, feels a little boring.
Meat...
Tang Sanzang was already hungry and could not bear the idea of breaking the precepts.
But no matter what, Tang Sanzang finally attached great importance to his image as a master.
After all, a few days ago, in order to fool the monkey away, I still said with a firm word that I would rather starve to death than get any meat. Now, it has only been a few days since I have changed my words so quickly.
Therefore, even though Tang Sanzang had subconsciously recited the rumor in his memory of "Reporting the Name of the Dish": steamed lambs, steamed bear's paws, steamed deer tails, roasted flower ducks, roasted chicks...
But on the surface, Tang Sanzang still maintained his steady and calmness, as if he was not involved in the fireworks of the world. "There is no requirement for the vegetarian food, and Wukong just needs to do it."
When the monkey heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart and nodded as if he was unintentionally.
"Okay, Master has no requirements."
Tang Sanzang, who had never known the monkey's little thoughts, just nodded subconsciously at this moment, but his attention was completely attracted by a few big words on a dilapidated stone tablet on the roadside.
Snake coiled mountain!
My monk's mount, the authentic white dragon horse, is coming.
In an instant, Tang Sanzang's spirit was revived and he was very focused.
After walking forward for several miles again, Tang Sanzang looked at the Eagle Chou Stream under the cliff from time to time.
If Tang Sanzang remembered correctly, the destined mount of the White Dragon Horse would be below.
However, as he continued to walk forward, the eagle clay below still had no movement at all, just like a pool of stagnant water.
Where is the dragon?
Seeing that the Yingchou Curtain was about to pass, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Slow down, Goku!"
Tang Sanzang had no choice but to shout at the monkey.
"What?" the monkey, who was also secretly calculating, responded subconsciously.
"Plop!"
Suddenly, a crisp sound of falling into the water sounded.
"Amitabha, good, good..." Tang Sanzang said to the monkey with guilt on his face.
"Wukong, my master's hand slipped for a moment, but accidentally let Zi... cough cough... fall down the purple gold bowl. I have to ask you to help me pick it up."
Listening to this familiar tone, the monkey became alert subconsciously, and his pair of golden eyes blinked subconsciously.
However, in the face of the monkey's suspicion, Tang Sanzang looked at the monkey with an open and honest expression with a little guilt.
"Tsk...Please..."
The monkey retreated on the spot under Tang Sanzang's eyes, and immediately jumped towards the Yingchou Stream below.
Just as the monkey was about to touch the purple gold bowl, the whole snake suddenly shook.
"what happened……"
The instinctive monkey wanted to look back in the direction of Tang Sanzang, but when he saw it, a huge rock the size of a millstone smashed towards him with the falling meteorite.
"I……"
Before the monkey could say something, he was completely smashed into the water of Yingchou Stream, and even a roar could be heard from the bottom of Yingchou Stream.
Seeing this, Tang Sanzang, who was above the Hepan Mountain Valley, couldn't help but whisper the Buddha's name.
"Amitabha, good, good, I seem to have used too much force by accident, but Wukong's copper and iron bones are indestructible, and I don't expect to hurt a single hair..."
The next moment, with the roar at the bottom of the Yingchou Stream, the entire Yingchou Stream that lasted for several miles began to boil and turned into a turbid area, as if two wild beasts were fighting below.
Immediately, Tang Sanzang, who was just a physical body, led his horse and began to stay away from the battlefield, so as not to hurt the innocent.
However, before Tang Sanzang could walk away with his white horse and luggage, two crisp sounds of water suddenly came from the Yingchou Stream.
The first appearance was the Monkey King Sun Wukong who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago but had a poor water quality and was slightly embarrassed.
At this moment, the Great Sage of Monkey King was in a mess, not only wet, but even his clothes were damaged. He looked like he suffered a loss and was furious, which made Tang Sanzang feel heartbroken.
My monk's...good disciple!
But the next moment, Tang Sanzang's heartache expression suddenly disappeared, and his eyes lit up a little.
As the monkey appeared, a white and crystal clear white dragon followed closely behind. The elegant and beautiful figure and every move were traction with clouds and mist, adding a bit of mystery.
"This dragon can highlight the temperament of my monk, very good..."
