In the Heavens - Vol 6 Chapter 104
Popular recommendation:
Thanks to the enthusiastic invitation of the village owner, Tang Sanzang, who was rushing the ducks to the shelves, was forced to participate in the first Mahjong Village – Que Sheng Hegemony Competition.
Although Tang Sanzang had worked hard, it was too embarrassing for a mortal to face three immortals.
There is no need to cheat, just keep card counting and counting within the scope of the game rules, and the two sides are no longer on the same level.
After a busy night, the hungry Tang Sanzang was finally forced to leave the battlefield due to lack of energy.
At the end of the game, the master of Dazhai, who was still unfinished, teased: “Monk Wu Na, your health is not good!
I couldn’t hold it all night, how did I get to the Western Heaven to seek the scriptures? I think you’d better go back home, to save you from dying in the middle of the journey and end up in a burial in a foreign country! ”
If ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, they have to get angry on the spot, but the good-tempered Tang Sanzang just endured it, and just said weakly: “Amitabha!”
Seeing this scene, the clever Sun Wukong knew that it was time for him to appear, and immediately jumped out and said, “Several kings, you are all masters with unique skills, and it would be too much to bully Master’s mortal body.
Even playing games, there must be an adaptation period. Master has only just come into contact with the game, but Er et al are a veteran in it, so this kind of competition is inherently unfair.
We might as well give some time. After Master is familiar with the rules of the game, we will have another test.
I can see that several kings are also generous and hospitable people. Our four masters and apprentices have traveled thousands of miles from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. All the way, they dined and slept in the wind, and the cars and horses were exhausted. The water was not exhausted overnight. Do you want to be the first to enter the friendship of the landlords? ?
Rest assured, all the kings, the four of us, master and apprentice, are all monks. They only eat vegetarian food and do not stick to meat and fishy food. They can prepare ten or eight vegetarian dishes, and it does not cost much money. ”
After listening to Sun Wukong’s words, Tang Sanzang couldn’t help but curse. . The fight last night had already exhausted his mind. Wouldn’t it cost him his life to do it again?
Especially when he heard that Sun Wukong begged the bandit for fast food, Tang Sanzang’s heart was even more raised, lest he would anger the bandit and cause a fight.
He didn’t doubt the abilities of the few apprentices, but the problem was that he was a mortal body. If a fight happened accidentally, it would spread to him, and it would kill him if he slammed into it.
“Fuck monkeys, don’t talk nonsense. As a king, our master and apprentices are not very demanding. As long as there is a temporary shelter, we can arrange the fasting meals at will!”
In the end, he couldn’t resist the protest, Tang Sanzang only lowered his standard, but did not completely reject Sun Wukong’s proposal.
Glancing at the four masters and apprentices, the third master sitting at the bottom waved his hand and commanded: “Let the kitchen arrange a fasting meal and entertain a few monks well, so as not to spread the word that my mahjong village does not know how to treat guests!
If you want to rest, the west wing is still empty, you can go. The legs are on your feet, and no one will stop you from passing.
But don’t think about escaping, here is our territory for hundreds of miles, any trouble can’t hide from our brothers.
Don’t say we bullied you, this pair of mahjong will be left to the four of you to study for the time being, and we will have a second fight three days later.
It’s still the old rule, if you win the game, let you guys continue to go west to learn the scriptures; if you lose the game, then continue to work hard to prepare for the next time! ”
Hearing this answer, Tang Sanzang was mixed. The happy thing is that after more than half a month of windy meals and rough sleep, hunger and cold, I finally have a place to rest and recuperate.
Just thinking of last night’s match made Tang Sanzang’s scalp tingle. Back then, he was also a top student monk in the temple, no matter what scriptures he could memorize after reading it once, but now he still feels that his brain is not enough.
Fortunately, the fast food is fast and the taste is also very good. Mainly because I have been hungry for a long time, and everything tastes delicious.
After a hearty meal, Tang Seng and his apprentice were in a daze around the mahjong table. After a while, Tang Sanzang Monkey asked, “Wukong, can you help your teacher win the competition?”
The lesson from last night told Tang Sanzang that he had no chance to fight for his strength. If you want to pass the customs smoothly, you can’t avoid taking chances.
“Master, you’re embarrassing my grandson. Mahjong seems to be easy to play, but there are many changes in it, and the routines in it are not understood by my grandson for a while!
Especially this pair of mahjong was also sealed by an expert. During the fight last night, my old grandson peeked at the opponent’s cards and wanted to remind you, but the sound transmission failed. ”
Sun Wukong scratched his ears and said.
It’s not that he wants to paddle, it’s just that the doorway here is too deep, and he can’t grasp it.
Since his debut, Sun Wukong has rarely been so aggrieved. The last time I encountered such a tragic incident was when Lingshan was suppressed by the Tathagata.
The monkey who was beaten by society is now a well-behaved monkey. Even if he knew that there was something wrong with the mahjong in front of him, Sun Wukong had no intention of destroying it.
Seeing that the eldest apprentice did not fail, Tang Sanzang turned his attention to the second apprentice again.
“Master, Brother Monkey is right. There is indeed a problem with this mahjong game. It seems that it has been blessed with a seal to prevent cheating. If it is forcibly broken from the outside world, I am afraid it will be backlashed by the seal and cause catastrophic disaster.
Last night my old pig also watched it. The kings of the mountain also won by their true abilities, and they didn’t play any tricks.
From the point of view of the old pig, there is no need to do other tricks. In the past few days, a few of us have accompanied you to practice your skills. With Master’s ingenuity, it is easy to defeat a few mountain kings.
Even if you lose, there is still another chance. Anyway, they are also entertainers with good wine and good food. It’s okay to stay for a few more days, just take a rest and relax. ”
Facts have proved that the most considerate second apprentice Zhu Bajie has never disappointed Tang Sanzang.
Running around all day, a few apprentices could stand it, but the mortal Tang Sanzang couldn’t. But he had the responsibility of learning from the past, making him embarrassed to ask for a rest.
In the past, when I rested, it was when the monsters took it away. You can fall into the hands of monsters, and you have to worry about it all day, how can you rest well.
In contrast, it is much safer in this cottage. All the bandits are masters with moral cultivation, not to mention all polite, at least no one wants to eat his meat.
No robbery, no robbery, good wine and good food, just inviting him to play mahjong, no matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem malicious.
Even if he couldn’t win the game, he was forced to turn his back in the end. With the skills of his three apprentices, it was not easy to deal with a group of mortals.
“Master, the second senior brother is right. You started from the Eastern Land Tang Dynasty, and you have been tired all the way to the present. Even your iron body can’t stand it!
You might as well take the opportunity to rest for a few days, raise your body first, and study Mahjong by the way. Anyway, in addition to technology, luck is also very important.
No matter how much luck is recited, it will sometimes come to a certain day. Participate in a few more competitions, and one day you will win. ”
The honest and honest Sha Wujing took the opportunity to make up for the sword.
They are all mixed in the heavenly court. Although they have changed their bodies, they still recognize the temperament that belongs to the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals.
Although I don’t know that this is a catastrophe set by a big man in Heaven, it is still my own after all. Both Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie know how to cooperate in acting, so Sha Seng naturally won’t smash his own boss’s place.
As for the delay in the progress of studying Buddhist scriptures, that is a small problem. The big deal is to speed up a little later, let the white dragon horse run wildly on the avenue for a few days, and then drive out the time.
If it really can’t catch up, the great master of Buddhism will naturally find a way to arrange it. In this mythical world, the time spent by the learning team is controllable. The big deal is to use the spell that shrinks into an inch a little harder, and the speed of progress will naturally be faster.
“Forget it, it’s just what you said. I haven’t slept all night, and I will take a nap for two hours as a teacher, and then we will study how to play mahjong!”
…
The crackling sound of mahjong kept ringing in the stockade. The group of heavenly soldiers and generals who turned into bandits did not go out to loot. They wandered around in the stockade all day, watching the liveliness of Tang Seng and his apprentices.
There was no master and apprentice on the poker table, and the four masters and apprentices of Tang Seng, who had a lot of fun, almost became good brothers.
The feelings of the team who took the scriptures sublimated, but Wufang Jiedi, who was protecting them with him, was anxious, and quickly contacted Guanyin Bodhisattva.
It’s just that the “Mahjong Village” at this moment has been shrouded in a huge barrier, and people who are idle can’t enter at all.
[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by both Android and Apple. 】
Even if Guanyin Bodhisattva wanted to interfere, he could only stare at the barrier in a daze. It’s not that she never thought about forcibly breaking the barrier, but she just told her rationally that it’s best not to use force when encountering such a thing.
The ninety-nine-eighty-one difficulties of the Buddhist scriptures team were jointly determined by Buddhism and the Great Master of the Three Realms. The difficulty in front of him, according to the rules, belongs to Emperor Gou Chen.
Outsiders cannot intervene unless the person who seeks the scriptures takes the initiative to ask for help. If you forcibly take away this difficult merit, then you will have a cause and effect with Emperor Gouchen.
One teaching is enough for Guanyin, if she offends Emperor Gouchen again, her life will be impossible.
What’s more, the barrier in front of you is not easy to break. Intuition tells Guanyin that this thing is very dangerous. Unless the life of the person who took the scriptures was endangered, she would not force it.
The current situation is very obvious. The mahjong village in front of me is purely used to test the minds of people who learn from the practice, and there is no danger at all.
It is acceptable for Guanyin Bodhisattva to just let the people who take the scriptures play cards for entertainment. If the person who takes the scriptures doesn’t even have the willpower, then change the person as soon as possible.
Seeing several village owners basking in the sun leisurely on the roof, the displeased Guanyin Bodhisattva immediately transmitted his voice and said: “The guard on duty, come and answer!”
Hearing Guanyin’s call, the three of them frowned. They don’t want to deal with Guanyin if possible. It’s just that they bumped into each other now, and everyone took the initiative to speak up. It’s not good not to say hello.
Of course, the most important thing is that Guanyin Bodhisattva’s fist is bigger. They are all just little monks who have not yet entered Daluo, and they have to bow their heads in front of the quasi-sage.
Jumping up, the three appeared in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva. However, the vigilant three stopped decisively at the gate of the barrier, not giving Guanyin Bodhisattva a chance to attack them.
“I have seen Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, and my brothers and sisters have set up a catastrophe test here at the order of the patriarch. I don’t know if the Bodhisattva came in exchange for my brothers, what is the so-called?”
It seems to be polite, but the meaning of rejecting people thousands of miles away is still revealed. In order to let Guanyin Bodhisattva retreat despite the difficulties, even the backstage moved out.
Seeing that the three of them insisted that it was the trial of catastrophe, Guanyin Bodhisattva’s grievances filled his stomach again. This was an appointment made by Buddhism with Li Mu in advance, and there was no reason to return at this juncture.
Even if this test is really a little out of the way, it is still within the scope of the rules. The most important thing is to give countless opportunities, not to be beaten to death by a stick.
Tang Sanzang could lose countless matches, and as long as he won a battle, he could take a few apprentices on the road to seek the truth, no matter how he looked at it, it seemed like he was deliberately letting go of water.
If Buddhism is entangled in this issue, the following catastrophe will be really uncomfortable. Unless it was a last resort, Guanyin didn’t want to turn against Li Mu.
“Amitabha!”
After uttering the Buddha’s name, Guanyin asked a little unhappily: “God general, according to the agreement, people can ask for help. You can block the cottage with an enchantment and prohibit us from entering and leaving. I’m afraid something is wrong, right?”
Hearing this answer, the “big master” laughed and said: “Bodhisattva, you have misunderstood. The Patriarch gave this barrier mainly to protect the safety of those who take the scriptures, so as not to be taken advantage of by children.
Its function is mainly to stop outsiders from invading, and people inside can not only enter and exit freely, but also bring people in, which will not affect Tang Sanzang’s apprentices coming out to ask for help. ”
There is no problem, the enchantment is so smart. If you are not convinced, just talk to the Patriarch. Anyway, the barrier has already been laid, so it will not be easily removed.
As for whether Tang Seng and his disciples are willing to come out to ask for help, and when to ask for help, that is all the matter of the person who seeks the scriptures.
Anyway, as the founder of the catastrophe, the longer the time of blocking the team, the greater the impact, and the more merits and virtues will be divided in the end.
When you put water on hand, you actually let go not only Tang Seng’s master and apprentice, but also his own merits.
Otherwise, if you know that you are acting, why are there so many immortals, Buddha mounts, boys and the like in the lower realm, why do you work so hard?
…
I don’t know the little episode that happened in the outside world, Tang Seng and his apprentice are still fighting at the mahjong table. I have to admit that this game is really addicting.
In just a few days of work, the four masters and apprentices of Tang Seng fell in love with this little game.
The way to learn the scriptures is really too boring, especially when resting at night, it is even more difficult to pass the long night, and the appearance of mahjong just makes up for this lack.
Unfortunately, the more he practiced his skills, the worse Tang Sanzang lost. Being brutally abused by his own apprentices one after another, he really can’t raise his fighting spirit.
So much so that he participated in seven consecutive battles, and all ended in disastrous defeats. In a blink of an eye, in a small mahjong village, the learning team was delayed for two months.
Tang Sanzang, who was originally skinny and skinny, gradually gained back the flesh on his body. Maybe it was because the food was too good, or because of lack of exercise, Tang Sanzang’s body was slightly fatter.
If he continued to stay in Mahjong Village for a few months, it was estimated that Tang Sanzang, who was raising fat, would eventually become a big fat man.
Fortunately, at this moment, the seal on Tang Sanzang’s body by the blessings of the two sages of Yingyin and Zhunti began to play a role, constantly hinting to him in the depths of his heart – the importance of the great cause of learning scriptures.
Tang Sanzang, who was addicted to games and gradually lost himself, was pulled out of his comfort zone, and let him focus on the great cause of learning again.
This morning, after having breakfast as usual, Tang Sanzang summoned his three apprentices and said worriedly: “It has been two months since I came to Mahjong Village, and I have really given up my great career of learning scriptures for my master.
It’s all because the teacher’s qualifications are dull and unable to grasp the essence of it. After many competitions in a row, they all ended in failure, delaying the great cause of learning, it is really a sin…”
Before Tang Sanzang could finish his sigh, Zhu Bajie jumped out and poured cold water: “Master, don’t sigh blindly here!
Compared to the outside world where there are monsters and monsters, this Mahjong Village is simply a paradise. The bandits in the stockade seem to be extremely vicious, but in fact they are not very evil people.
We have been here for so long, and they have been entertaining us with good food and wine, and we have never been seen to go out to loot. It is estimated that most of them are righteous people who were persecuted by the world and forced to come here.
We agreed in advance to decide whether to stay or stay by winning or losing the mahjong competition. Now if we lose, we have to admit it. If I turn my face because I can’t afford to lose, I can’t afford to lose that person anyway.
With such a kung fu, you might as well study the mahjong strategy, strive for victory in the next competition, and take us out of here with great pride. ”
“Master, Bajie is right. The most important thing when going out of business is to keep credibility. As people who learn the scriptures, we represent not only ourselves, but also the Buddhists behind us.
Since it was agreed that the decision to stay or stay will be based on the mahjong competition, then the rules must be followed. Don’t make a moment of shame for Buddhism because of a momentary anger. ”
Sun Wukong followed suit.
Seeing Sha Wujing at the corner also eager to try, as if to persuade him, Tang Sanzang immediately waved his sleeves and turned away.
These disciples are really worried. As a master, his hints were so obvious, but not only did he not accept the tricks, but he used great truth to block him.
The reputation of Buddhism has been moved out, which makes Tang Sanzang what else to say. Turn your face and deny the account, and force it out from here?
Just think about it secretly, the three apprentices are unwilling to take action. Even if he dares to turn his face, he is a monk who has no power to tie the chicken, but he has no ability to play the capital out of here!
