Chapter 83: The monkey recognizes that the red-headed girl has returned to her true nature

Xuan Zang was helped out of the cave by the old pig Lao Sha. Lao Sha asked: "Master, you Come out, where is the senior brother?"

Old Zhu said: "Hmph, brother is very capable, did you stay down and replace the master?"

Xuan Zang stretched out his hand. Pointing at the belly of the banshee, he said: "Your senior brother is in her belly."

The old pig smiled and said: "Hey...it's so dirty, what are you doing in her belly?"

Brother Monkey shouted in the Banshee’s belly: “Open your mouth quickly, I’m going to come out.”

After hearing this, Brother Monkey immediately opened her mouth, and Brother Monkey crawled to her mouth and was about to come out. , I felt that this scene seemed familiar, and then I thought: "I can't just get out, otherwise she will bite me like a green-haired lion monster." So he took out a stick and supported the upper and lower jaws of the banshee before jumping out. , took back the stick and discovered the truth.

When the banshee saw Brother Monkey coming out, she swung her double swords and struck without saying a word. Brother Monkey waved his stick to meet him, and the two of them fought for a while.

The two of them were fighting equally, and Lao Zhu muttered to Lao Sha: "Brother, senior brother, isn't this nonsense? When he was in her belly just now, he could kill the monster, now this "How tiring it is to fight."

Lao Sha said: "Yes, but thanks to my senior brother for rescuing the master from the cave, let the master sit here for a while, and we will do the same. "Okay."

Lao Zhu waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, senior brother is great, we can't."

Lao Sha said, "What are you talking about, second brother?" The fart adds to the wind, no matter how bad we are, we can still help."

After hearing this, Lao Zhu picked up the guy on a whim, ignored Xuanzang, and followed Lao Sha. Fight that banshee.

The banshee and the monkey brother could barely resist each other. At this time, they were defeated immediately with one against three, so they ran away.

Brother Monkey shouted: "Brothers, chase!"

Seeing them coming, the Banshee repeated her old trick, took off the embroidered shoe on her right foot, and transformed into a fake body to resist. , turned into a breeze, saw Xuanzang sitting alone at the entrance of the cave, and pulled Xuanzang, his luggage and horses back to the cave.

Let’s say that the old pig knocked the fake banshee to the ground with a rake, and when he saw it again, it turned out to be an embroidered shoe.

Brother Monkey saw this and scolded him: "You two idiots! If you don't look at Master carefully, who asked you to help?"

Old Zhu was dissatisfied and said angrily: "Hmph! Lao Sha, did you hear that? I said don't come. This monkey is mentally ill. Let's help him catch monsters. Instead, he scolded us."

Brother Monkey said: "Catch him." Monster? Did you catch her? She used this trick when I fought her yesterday. You two came over. Let's go and see."

The three of you are in a hurry. They hurried to the entrance of the cave. Not only was Xuanzang missing, but the luggage and horses were also gone. The three of them were in a panic, scurrying back and forth like ants on a hot pot.

Brother Monkey's sharp eyes saw the half of the rein hanging down by the tree. He stepped forward and grabbed it, crying: "Master! You were here just now, why are you gone?"

p>

When Lao Zhu saw Brother Monkey crying anxiously, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

Brother Monkey said angrily: "You idiots! Are you thinking about breaking up again?"

Old Pig smiled and said: "Hey, brother, no, no. Master must be He was caught in the cave again. As the saying goes, it only takes three. You have been in the cave twice. You can definitely save the master if you go again."

Brother Monkey wiped his tears and said, "It's alright, we're here. It's no good if we don't go in now. I'll go down now and you two can take a good look at the entrance of the cave." After that, he jumped into the cave and came to the gatehouse again. He saw that the gatehouse was closed. He opened the door with a stick and there was silence inside. , Brother Monkey walked around inside for a few times, but there was no one there.

It turns out that this cave has a radius of three hundred miles, and there are many monster nests. Xuanzang was captured here before, but was found by Brother Monkey. This time the place was changed.

Brother Monkey was so angry that he beat his chest and shouted: "Master! Why are you so sad! Where are you!" As he was shouting, he suddenly smelled a fragrance wafting out, and he sniffed. He smelled it and thought to himself: "This cigarette is coming from behind. Master must be behind." After saying this, he strode over with the iron rod in hand.

The cigarettes were indeed drifting from the back room, but there were no monsters or Xuanzang. There was an offering table with a large incense burner on the table. , it says "Honor your father, Li Tianwang," and next to it, "Honor your brother, Nezha, the third prince."

Brother Monkey thought to himself that he had found a solution this time, and he stopped looking for monsters. He happily took the tablet and the incense burner and walked out of the cave.

Hearing Brother Monkey’s laughter, Old Pig and Lao Sha made way for the entrance of the cave, faced Brother Monkey and asked, “Brother is so happy, has he rescued the master?”

Monkey Brother smiled and said: "We don't need to save people, just let this brand ask for people."

"Humph! Brother, this brand is not a monster, how can it give us people?"

Brother Monkey placed the tablet on the ground and said, "Look."

Lao Sha came over and looked at it and asked, "What does this mean?"

Brother Monkey Said: "This is offered to the monster's house. The female monster must be the daughter of King Li Tian and the sister of Nezha. Sifan went down to the world pretending to be a monster and took the master away. Who does King Li want to ask for if he doesn't ask? You two guard At the entrance of this cave, I, Lao Sun, will take the memorial tablet to the heaven and ask Li Tianwang to return it to my master." Old Zhu said: "Hmph! Brother, that imperial certificate is not casual. You have to think of your words."

Brother Monkey said with a smile: "I have thought about it. This tablet incense burner is the evidence. I will write another complaint."

Old Pig said: "What are you going to write? You tell me and I will listen."

Brother Monkey cleared his throat and said: "The accuser, Sun Wukong, is Tang Sanzang who studied in the East and the Tang Dynasty in the West. Because the fake monster caught my master and came to complain, the current King of Pagoda Li Jing and his son Nezha have a lax family. Li Jing's daughter Sifan went down to the bottom of the world and turned into a monster in the bottomless pit of the empty mountain in the county, causing countless harm to people. The master took him away. The Li family allowed their daughter to become a spirit and harm others. Please let the heaven know and subdue the monster to save my master." After hearing this, Lao Zhu Lao Sha nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother, the accusation is reasonable and powerful. It will work, but you must come back early. If you are too late, the monster will kill the master." Brother Monkey said, "I'll go as soon as possible."

The great sage jumped up with the incense burner holding the memorial tablet and went straight to the Nantian Gate. When the guards saw him, they bowed and did not dare to stop him. When he arrived at His Highness Tongming, the four heavenly masters greeted him and said: "Great sage Come on, what's the matter?"

Brother Monkey said: "I want to file a complaint!"

The Heavenly Master said in surprise: "You want to say goodbye to someone else? "He led Brother Monkey to His Highness Lingxiao to start playing.

Brother Monkey met the Jade Emperor, put down the tablet and the incense burner, bowed upward, and handed over the petition. Ge Xianweng took it and presented it to the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor read it from beginning to end, regarded the imperial edict as an imperial edict, and ordered Taibai Jinxing to accept the edict and go to Yunlou Palace to announce the visit of Li Tianwang to the pagoda.

Brother Monkey stepped forward and said: "I hope the Jade Emperor will punish Li Jing well, otherwise he may cause trouble in the future."

The Jade Emperor ordered again: " The accuser, Sun Wukong, will go with Taibai Jinxing too.”

“Ah? My grandson will go too?” Brother Monkey scratched his head.

The Four Heavenly Masters said: "Long Live has decreed that you go with Venus."

Brother Monkey had no choice but to follow Taibai Jinxing to Yunlou Palace.

King Li Tian heard the boy's report that Taibai Jinxing was coming, so he came out to greet him. He saw Jinxing holding an imperial edict in his hand. He hurriedly ordered the boy to burn incense. When he was about to turn around, he saw Brother Monkey following behind. He was furious and couldn't bear it. He couldn't help but ask: "Old Chang Geng, what kind of decree do you have?"

Jin Xing said: "Ah, this is Sun Dasheng's complaint against you.

"

King Li Tian was angry when he saw Brother Monkey. When he heard the word "sue", he immediately became furious and said angrily: "What is he suing me for?" "

Jin Xing said: "Ah, I'm suing you for allowing fake monsters to go down to the lower world and catch people. Burn the incense and see for yourself. "

King Li Tian angrily set up the incense table, bowed to the sky to express his gratitude, opened the imperial edict and read it, then slapped the table table angrily and said: "You monkey head! He framed me! "

Jin Xing laughed and said, "Don't be angry. Now he is holding the tablet and the incense burner in front of the emperor to testify that the monster is your daughter.

The King of Heaven said: "I only have three sons and one daughter. My daughter's name is Zhenying. She has just turned seven years old. She doesn't fully understand people and things. How can they become monsters!" If you don’t believe it, I’ll hold it out and show it to you. You monkey are rude! Not to mention that I am a hero in heaven and have the right to kill first and report later. Even ordinary people cannot make false accusations! Come on, someone, tie this monkey up with a demon-binding rope! "

Below, the Giant Spirit God, the Fish Belly General, and the Yaocha Xiongshou swarmed up and tied the Monkey Brother up.

Jin Xing hurriedly dissuaded him: "Li Tianwang, you are causing trouble! I was with him in front of the emperor to receive the decree to declare you. It would be very painful for you to tie him up with a rope. It would be bad if you trap him again. "

The King of Heaven said: "Go on, how can we tolerate such false accusations like his! You sit down for a while, wait for me to take the demon-chopping knife and chop off the monkey's head, and then I will go with you to see the emperor and return the order! "(The reaction of King Tota when he first saw Brother Monkey was extremely abnormal. The original text stated that it was because five hundred years ago King Li led a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and failed to do anything to the beam that Brother Monkey took over. This obviously does not make sense. Because before Brother Monkey fought against the Supreme Lord When Laojun was a Qing Niu Jing, he asked Li Tianwang to be a reinforcement. At that time, the relationship between the two was very harmonious. Li Tianwang even flattered Brother Monkey from time to time. This time, King Li Tianwang was so angry when he saw Brother Monkey. It was obviously because Brother Monkey reported on the female monster. , ruined King Li’s good deeds. So what is the relationship between the female monster and King Li, and what are their interests? We will continue to read in detail in the book review)

Venus. Seeing that Li Tianwang really took the demon-cutting knife, he was frightened and said to Brother Monkey: "Hey, look at what you have done. Ah, the imperial edict was filed casually, and you didn't Find out and file a lawsuit. Now that I really want to kill you, what are you doing? ”

Brother Monkey was not worried at all and said with a smile: “Don’t worry, old man, everything will be fine.” This is what Lao Sun does in his business, losing first and then winning. "

Just as he was talking, Li Tianwang swung his knife and struck Brother Monkey on the head. But there was a crisp sound of "dang", and indeed the third prince Nezha caught up and killed the demon. He held the sword at his waist and shouted: "Father, calm down! ”

Li Tianwang was shocked when he saw it! If his son and his father were facing each other with swords, Li Tianwang should have shouted back Nezha, so what was he afraid of? It turned out that when Nezha was just born, he had something on his left palm. There is a character for "Na", and there is a character for "吒" on his right palm, so he is called Nezha.

Nezha was very naughty when he was young. He went to the Dragon Palace and kicked over the Crystal Palace, and he caught the dragon and got cramps. Li Tianwang thought it would be a disaster to keep him, so he wanted to kill him, which also affected Nezha's biological parents. Nezha also had a bad temper, so he committed suicide on the spot and wiped his neck, returning his flesh and blood to his parents. , Yuan Shen ran to the west to see Tathagata. When Tathagata saw how cute the child was, he chanted mantras to bring Nezha back to life. Later, Nezha descended from the Ninety-sixth Cave Demon and wanted to kill King Li Tian when he saw no one. King Li Tian had no choice but to go to the Tathagata. Based on the principle of peace being the most important thing, the Tathagata gave King Li Tian an exquisite golden pagoda with relics and Buddha statues on each floor. When Nezha saw the Buddha and recognized his father, he followed Li Tianwang. The King of Heaven resolved the grievances.

Today King Li was idle at home without holding the pagoda. He was afraid that Nezha would have revenge, so he was frightened and hurriedly took back the sword and took the golden pagoda from the base. Holding it in his hand, he felt more at ease and asked Nezha: "My child, hold my sword, what do you want to say? "

Nezha also put away his sword and kowtowed: "Father, you really have a daughter in the lower realm.

"

King Li Tian said: "My children, I only have four of you children left, how can I have another daughter? "

Nezha said: "Father, you have forgotten that the daughter was originally a monster. Three hundred years ago, she stole Tathagata's fragrant flowers and candles in Lingshan and became a spirit. Tathagata sent us, father and son, to send heavenly soldiers to capture her. Later, when we caught her, she was supposed to be beaten to death, but Tathagata told her to spare her life and spare her life. Only then did she feel grateful. She worshiped her father as her father and her children as her brothers. She set up a tablet in the lower realm to offer incense. Unexpectedly, she was causing trouble again and framed Tang Seng. Only then was Sun Xingzhe caught the evidence and filed a lawsuit against her. It is true that she is not your biological child, but she is your sworn daughter. "

Li Tianwang slapped his forehead and said in surprise: "My child, I really forgot, what is her name? "

Nezha said: "She has three names. She is a white-haired mouse spirit with a straight golden nose. She stole the fragrant flowers and precious candles and changed her name to Banjie Guanyin; now she is called Mrs. Diyong in the lower world. "

King Li Tian finally woke up, put down the pagoda, and stepped forward to untie Brother Monkey himself.

But Brother Monkey got excited and said shamelessly: "Don't, don't, don't! Let's see who dares to untie me! Let's go to see the Jade Emperor like this, so that Lao Sun's lawsuit can be won. ”

King Li Tianwang was so panicked that his legs were weak. Nezha felt that he was wrong and could not speak. All the generals did not dare to come forward. Brother Monkey made fun and made noises on the spot. See you. King Li Tian was really at his wits end, so he begged Taibai Jinxing to intercede.

Jin Xing said, "Wang Li, as the ancients said, I want to see you later. What he did was too much. He tied up the great sage and even wanted to kill him. This monkey is known to be a scoundrel. How can I persuade him? If it is true as Prince Nezha said, even if the monster is not your biological daughter, she is still an adopted daughter, and you will not be able to escape the blame if something happens. "

The King of Heaven smiled and said: "If Lao Xing intercedes for me, I won't be guilty, right, haha. "

Jin Xing said: "I also want to help you make peace, but the Great Sage may not listen to what I say.

The King of Heaven smiled evilly and said: "It was you who brought up the matter of the Great Sage's recruitment. If you tell me about it, the Great Sage will definitely appreciate it." "(Wang Li Tianwang means: I know what your plan was when you recruited me. If you don't help me, I will expose the matter.)

As soon as Jin Xing heard this, he stepped forward. He patted Brother Monkey with his hand and said: "Great Sage, for my sake, just untie the rope, ah. ”

Brother Monkey turned away and said, “Old man, there’s no need to explain, I know how to get out of here, so I’ll get over to Lingxiao Palace.”

Jin Xing smiled and said: "You monkey, you don't miss old feelings. I was kind to you in the past. Ah, why can't you give me some face, huh?" "

Brother Monkey asked: "Why are you so kind to me? "

Jin Xing said: "When you were a monster in Huaguo Mountain, God wanted to arrest you. It was I who reported to the Jade Emperor, and then issued an edict to recruit you and make you Bi Ma Wen. It’s me who will do my best to make you the Monkey King. It is precisely because of this that you have the opportunity to eat flat peaches, drink royal wine and take golden elixirs, and achieve immortality. Think about it, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be where you are today, ah?

Brother Monkey sighed and said: "The ancients are right. When you die, don't be buried with the old man. You will pick fights when nothing happens." I just want to be Bima Wen and go back to heaven to make trouble. Forget it, just for your sake, let him deal with me personally. "

King Li Tian then dared to step forward, untied the demon-binding rope with his own hands, and saluted Brother Monkey to sit down.

Brother Monkey said to Jin Xing: "Old man, how are you? I say lose first and then win, that’s what this business has to do. If you dare, urge him to meet you. Don't delay me in saving Master. ”

Jin Xing laughed and said, “Don’t be anxious, let’s go have a cup of tea.” "

Brother Monkey said shamelessly: "Okay, you drank his tea and accepted his selfishness. Do you want to release the prisoner privately? "

Jin Xing hurriedly said: "Okay, okay! If you don’t drink anymore, you’ll have to drink it too.

King Li, go quickly, go quickly! "

Li Tianwang really didn't dare to go. He was afraid that Brother Monkey would talk about running a train to accuse himself, and he begged Jin Xing to intercede.

Jin Xing said to Brother Monkey: "I have In one sentence, can you listen to me? ”

Brother Monkey said: “You don’t even mention the matter of tying me up and chopping me up because of your face, what else do you have to say?” You tell me, if it's right I'll listen to you, otherwise I won't care. "

Jin Xing smiled and said: "You see, that's it. You said that the monster is the daughter of King Li. If King Li doesn't admit it, even if you two argue in the sky, there will be no peace in the sky or on the earth. In one year, after you two have finished arguing, your master will not only get married, but also give birth to a child. Aren't you missing something important? "

Brother Monkey lowered his head to think about it and said, "That's right! I told Lao Zhu and Lao Sha that I would go back soon. I have been in the sky for such a long time. So according to you, what's going on? "

Jin Xing said: "What do you want me to say? Let King Li Tianwang order his troops and follow you to the lower realms to succumb to the demons. Ah, I will go back and repeat the order myself. "

Brother Monkey asked: "What will you say then? "

Jin Xing said: "Well, I just said that the plaintiff ran away, and there is no need to mention the defendant. "

Brother Monkey smiled and said: "Okay! I gave you face, but you told the Jade Emperor that I ran away! Ask him to order troops to wait for me at Nantianmen, and I will go with you to see the Jade Emperor. "

King Li Tian was scared and said to Jin Xing: "If he talks casually when he goes there, I will be guilty of deceiving the emperor! "

Brother Monkey said: "Who do you think my old grandson is! A man's words are hard to follow. Since he said he won't cause trouble to you, how could he say anything to frame you? ”

Seeing Brother Monkey’s sincerity, the Heavenly King thanked Brother Monkey, ordered his heavenly soldiers to wait at Nantianmen.

Brother Monkey and Venus met the Jade Emperor, and Venus played: : "Long live, it was a golden-nosed white-haired rat spirit who captured Tang Monk, and he faked the memorial tablet of King Li Tianwang and his son, ah. The King of Heaven knew about it and had already ordered his troops to subdue the demon. ”

The Jade Emperor immediately stated that he would no longer hold King Li Tian accountable. (The Jade Emperor did not want to hold King Li accountable in the first place, so he asked Brother Monkey to follow Taibai Jinxing to the residence of King Li Tian to let them Solving it yourself is equivalent to changing from a legal process to a private matter. So why did the Jade Emperor turn a blind eye to King Li's connivance with the monsters in the lower world? We will also analyze it in the book review section) At Tianmen, I saw King Li, the Prince and the Heavenly Soldiers waiting, so I went down to the realm with them.

Old Pig and Lao Sha were waiting eagerly at the entrance of the cave, only to see Brother Monkey and the Heavenly Soldiers coming.

p>

Old Zhu greeted Li Tianwang and said, "Thank you! Good job! "(An old pig still knows how to be a human being)

Li Tianwang was a little uneasy and said: "Marshal Tianpeng, you don't know, she dared to do this just because my father and son suffered a stick of incense from a monster. You're rude, I caught your master, don't be surprised if we're late. Is this mountain the empty mountain? I wonder where the cave door is?

Brother Monkey said: "I know, isn't there a hole in the ground? It's a bottomless pit. There are more than three hundred miles in it. There are too many monster nests. Now I don't know where to hide my master." Went. "

Li Tianwang said: "I don't expect she can escape from this dragnet. "

When everyone came to the cave, King Li Tian said: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs. Who dares to take the lead! "

Brother Monkey said: "I'll come, I'll come. "

Nezha took a step forward and said, "I have been ordered to subdue the demon, and I will take the lead. "

The old pig also got excited and said: "Hmph! It's me, the old pig, who has to do the first thing. "

The King waved his hand and said: "Don't argue, I will arrange it. Sun Dasheng and the prince led the troops down together, and the three of us guarded the entrance of the cave, working together inside and outside to show the monsters what we can do. "

Everyone agreed: "Yes! ”

Brother Monkey and Nezha led their soldiers down to the cave to search everywhere, almost covering a radius of three hundred miles, but no monsters or Xuanzang could be found.

The heavenly soldiers discussed: "Would the monster have already left the cave and run away?"

It turned out that the banshee took Xuanzang and the little monsters and hid in the southeast. In the dark cave, I thought that Brother Monkey would not be able to find it, and after the news passed, I got married to Xuanzang. Just when it was time, there were a few unlucky little monsters who were poking their heads in the cave to observe the situation outside. They happened to be bumped into by a heavenly soldier, who shouted: "Here they are! Come here quickly!"

Brother Monkey became furious when he heard the sound. He broke into the small hole with a stick and saw a group of monsters nesting inside. They were all blocked by Nezha and the heavenly soldiers and generals who came in later. Xuanzang and the white horse luggage were also It's all here.

When the banshee saw Nezha, she knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

Nezha said: "I came here to arrest you on the orders of the Jade Emperor, not just because you said I would spare you. We, father and son, were almost implicated just because we accepted a stick of incense from you!" So he ordered: "Come here, tie up these monsters with monster-binding ropes!"

Everyone came out of the cave together, and the King of Heaven saw Brother Monkey coming out with a smile, and greeted him: "Great Sage, this time Rescue your master, go see him quickly."

Brother Monkey said, "Thank you very much!" Then he met Xuanzang and took him to thank the King of Heaven and Nezha.

Lao Zhu and Lao Sha only wanted to behead the banshee. The King of Heaven said: "You two, this monster was captured by order. I have to take her back to pay for it." Then they bid farewell to Master Xuanzang. Disciple, he took Nezha and the heavenly soldiers and generals and escorted the monsters back to heaven.

Brother Monkey supported Xuanzang, Lao Zhu and Lao Sha packed their luggage and horses, and the four of them found the main road and continued walking west.

Exactly: cut off the golden sea of ??silk and dried silk, open the jade lock and get out of the cage.

If you want to know what happened next, listen to the explanation in the next chapter.
