Journey Starts From Wudang - Chapter 508
“The great emperor, the Monkey Sun Wukong, has been subdued by the Western Tathagata Buddha and suppressed to the foot of Wuzhi Mountain. Now a celebration banquet has been prepared in yaochi. Will the great emperor attend?”
Lu Zhi said, “I’ll forget it. I have to go to dourate palace. If you’re interested in the yaochi event, go and join the fun.”
After talking, Lu Zhi got up and went out of the hall, turned into a light and went to the dourate palace.
Although the monkey king has been suppressed now, in fact, the journey to the west of later generations is just about to begin. It is also time to seek advice from the old gentleman, plan in advance and prepare early.
Even if Tianting has now reached cooperation with Western Lingshan, it does not mean that there will be no disputes between the two sides in the Westward Journey in future generations. After all, both sides must seek the greatest interests for themselves.
This time, Tianting cooperated with the west, Taoism and Buddhism to promote the westward journey, but this westward journey is still an undercurrent. In this cooperation, the two sides must fight with each other, which is not only a dispute of Qi, merit and morality, but also a dispute between Taoism and Buddhism.
So some things have to be prepared as soon as possible.
When Sun Wukong got away from the Bagua stove, in order to vent his anger, he kicked over the Bagua stove, resulting in the fire pouring out of the stove, which almost ignited more than half of the dourate palace. Now the fire has gradually subsided.
“Then I met my master.” After entering the hall and meeting the old gentleman, Lu Zhi also said the purpose of this trip.
“Master, now the monkey king has been pressed by the Tathagata at the foot of the five finger mountain. Please give me some advice. What should I do?”
The old gentleman smiled at the speech and said, “the journey to the west is to make up for the damage to the earth vein of the West in ancient times. It is also a good fortune. Qingzhi, you should also participate in it and plan some good fortune.”
“Qingzhi, you are now full of three flowers and five Qi. It’s time to achieve the road, and this journey to the west is a great opportunity.”
Lu Zhi heard the speech and asked, “what should the disciple do?”
The old gentleman looked at Lu Zhi and said, “the gods and Buddhists all over the world have paid attention to the westward journey, and many parties have settled down. However… The 9981 difficulty on the westward journey is the result of the operation of the way of heaven. No one can calculate it accurately. We can only adapt to local conditions and follow the trend.”
“Qingzhi, since you have the first chance, you might as well plan from it, or you can get some merit.”
Lu Zhi vaguely realized the deep meaning of Lao Jun’s words.
I’m afraid all the gods and Buddhas in the West want to take a share of it and moisten some merit and fortune. However, although the west is a merit, it is also a disaster. Naturally, no one can fully calculate the details.
Moreover, no matter how far the journey to the west is, it is only 81 difficulties set by the way of heaven. Therefore, even if many people plan and prepare a lot, they may end up doing useless work and have no chance to participate in it.
For Lu Zhi, this journey to the west is his opportunity.
As Lao Jun said, he has taken the lead. If he has a far-reaching vision and operates properly, it can indeed bring him a lot of benefits.
With this in mind, Lu Zhi immediately bowed down and said, “thank you, master.”
The old gentleman nodded and said, “well, go by yourself.”
“Yes, master.”
After returning to Zhenwu hall and arranging the government affairs, Lu Zhi summoned the feather fairy and set foot on the lower boundary of pengbei He was ready to take the journey to the West in advance and make some arrangements in advance.
Two thousand miles to the west of the Han Dynasty, there is a mountain called Wuxing mountain. It is said that a sacred mountain came from the sky a few years ago and suppressed a demon monkey here.
The suppressed demon monkey is naturally the monkey king, and these two boundary mountains can also be regarded as the official beginning of the westbound road.
But even here Lu Zhi turned to look at the place where the monkey king was suppressed. Both Buddhism and Tianting sent people on duty to guard the monkey. It was impossible to make an article about the monkey.
So after Lu Zhi took a look, he simply didn’t go there to join in any excitement. He turned and directly crossed Liangjie mountain and went west.
Hundreds of miles away from Liangjie mountain, there is a black wind mountain. In the cave, there is a black bear monster who has been refined for thousands of years, and Lu Zhi’s target is him.
This black bear spirit will be one of the “9981” difficulties in the future, and he is one of the few “wild spirits” on the westbound Road, which is worth planning.
In the original work, the black bear essence was favored by Guanyin, took back the Nanhai Taoist temple and became a mountain Guarding God. However, this time, even Guanyin Bodhisattva was gone, and the black bear essence should naturally be subdued by Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi walked into the black wind cave all the way. The little demon on duty along the way couldn’t find him at all. Lu Zhi came to the depths of the cave unimpeded and found the black bear essence sleeping with a can of mead.
“Wake up.”
The black bear essence opened half of his eyelids and said impatiently with sleepy eyes, “uh… Who? Disturb labor and capital’s sleep? Tell me if you have anything…”
Half way through, he suddenly realized that the man in front of him was not a little demon in his cave!
The black bear spirit’s face changed with surprise. Without thinking about it, he directly smashed the wine jar in his hand at Lu Zhi. Then a lazy donkey rolled to the rear and raised his hand to call the big gun on the shelf in the room. After that, his tight heart was slightly put down.
“Who are you?!” The black bear spirit shouted at the long gun.
Lu Zhi put the wine can aside, then looked up at the black bear essence and said, “poor Lu Zhi.”
The black bear’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn’t know what he thought. First, he looked at Lu Zhi carefully, and then suddenly changed his face and said, “Zhenwu emperor!”
Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh, you black fellow, do you still know me?”
Why don’t you recognize it! It was Lu Zhi who personally led the lower bound demon to rush him from southern support to Heifeng mountain!
Lu Zhi may not have any impression of him, but the black bear essence can’t forget Lu Zhi’s appearance at all.
The black bear subconsciously clenched the big gun in his hand and said angrily: “emperor Zhenwu, why are you looking for me? I have left nanbuzhou and haven’t done any evil in recent years. Do you really want to kill them all?!”
Lu Zhi glanced at the black bear spirit who was so frightened that his hair stood up. He shook his head and said, “don’t be nervous. I’m not here to trouble you, and I won’t do anything to you.”
“On the contrary, I’m here to give you a good fortune. I just don’t know whether you want it or not.”
The black bear essence couldn’t help but stay for a moment when he heard the speech. Then he said suspiciously, “emperor Zhenwu, what do you want me to do?”
The black bear essence looked big and thick, but his mind was delicate. He reacted in an instant. Lu Zhi came to find him, I’m afraid he had another purpose.
“You’re smart.” Lu Zhi smiled and said, “in about 500 years, you Heifeng mountain will have a monk who comes from the East and goes to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. At that time, I want you to stop them and give them some hardships.”
“When it’s done, I can give you the position of bear’s best pioneer… Of course, I’m not unreasonable, you can refuse, but you have to let Heifeng mountain out and move to beigulu island.”
The black bear essence smelled the speech and his face tightened for a moment. Although he didn’t know about the journey to the West and Lu Zhi’s intention, he also knew that Lu Zhi must have a plan It’s hard to refuse.
Although he is not interested in the xiongpi pioneer promised by Lu Zhi and prefers unrestricted days, Lu Zhi has come to the door directly. Is there any room for him to refuse?
Even if Lu Zhi said he could refuse, but the black bear did not dare. After all, who knows if he really burst out half a word of no, would Zhenwu turn his face on the spot and peel off his bear skin?!
When Lu Zhi led the heavenly soldiers and generals to attack the demons in the lower world, he had seen Lu Zhi’s means with his own eyes. This nine heavenly demon ancestor, Zhenwu emperor, was definitely the most afraid person to provoke such strange demons!
Lu Zhi’s name among these monsters is really easier to use than the Jade Emperor and the Tathagata.
After weighing the pros and cons, the black bear monster chooses to be soft for the time being. If not, he will see if there is room for turning around in the future. Anyway, he dare not gamble.
With this in mind, the black bear essence showed a silly smile on his face and said, “emperor Zhenwu, you need my old gangster’s help. I naturally have nothing to say. What do you want me to do?”
