MTL - The Monkey King-Chapter 711 :Catfish
Digging a well is an extremely difficult task, especially when there is a lack of labor.
The county king is already old, and in the entire Fengxian County, Xuanzang may be left to do this kind of work. Naturally, the burden fell on Xuanzang.
So, as the sun rose and the sun went down, Xuanzang began to dig wells from morning to night, and the old county king was busy helping Xuanzang.
In the surrounding corners, a group of demon generals, monkeys and others just watched day after day.
"This place can really dig water? If it can be dug out, why didn't the previous people dig it?"
"Yes, people in the whole county can dig wells faster than Master Xuanzang alone, right?"
The time passed day by day, five feet, ten feet, twenty feet. Still no water.
"Should we help? If we do it, it should be no problem to dig a hundred or two hundred feet a night, right?"
"You're stupid, what's the benefit of helping? Have you forgotten what Master Xuanzang's attitude is? Once we help, there may be trouble again. It's thankless, why bother?"
Thirty feet, fifty feet. Still no water.
"If there's no water, he wouldn't plan to just keep digging, right?"
"What about the Great Sage's westward journey?"
A group of demon generals looked at each other.
At the same time, seeing Xuanzang digging a well every day, his body covered with loess, the monkey already hates it so much. Temper is getting more and more irritable day by day.
…
Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple.
"Xuanzang dug a well in Fengxian County? Can he be any more stupid?"
"There is indeed an underground river in that place. But the flow is very small. If the location is right, it is not impossible to dig out a little water. But, what can you do with just a little water?"
"It's not impossible. There are not many people living in Fengxian County itself. There is one more well. Even if the water output is less, it should be able to make the people live better."
"But what's the point of that? Is this his Purdue? Save a few people, not the whole county?"
The entire hall was silent, and the Buddhas looked at each other.
"Isn't it... We overestimated him too much? After he said that, Xuanzang was at the end of his force and entered a dead end?"
In the crowd, Lingji suddenly thought of something. Smile lightly.
for a while. All the Buddhas in the hall looked towards him.
"Does Venerable Lingji have something to say? You might as well say it."
Hearing the words, Lingji vibrated his sleeves, walked down the steps step by step, and came to the center of the hall. Put your hands together and bow to the Tathagata.
"The poor monk has a plan."
"A coup?"
"right."
"tell me the story."
Lingji shook his head, waved his hand, and said with a wide-eyed smile: "Don't say it, don't say it. Say it. It's not good. You can only do it."
After saying this, all the Buddhas present became more and more puzzled, and all of them frowned.
Lingji raised his head slightly and looked at the Tathagata.
After a long time, Tathagata nodded and said, "Then, let's try it."
"Lingji obeys." After saying that, Lingji bowed and retreated outside the hall.
After he left, the Buddhas began to discuss.
"What is this Lingji going to do? Why can't it be said? Is it possible that there is an inner response here?"
"Maybe it's just a clever trick."
"According to his temperament. It's not surprising. However, it is difficult to say whether this strategy is a good idea."
"I heard that he was teasing Xuanzang outside Gaolaozhuang that day. In the end, not only did he fail to get a favor, but he even offered to marry someone for nothing. This time's 'trick' should not be self-defeating."
While all the Buddhas were discussing, the Tathagata seemed to be inaudible, lowered his head and sighed softly, "Then Yang Chan's appearance. I am afraid that Venerable Ksitigarbha was also unexpected, right? In this way, the six-eared macaque is playing chess. It’s a waste. If there is nothing to do with each other, how can there be any legal defense?”
After saying that, his gaze turned slightly and looked towards King Jizo.
"That's not the case." King Ksitigarbha said lightly: "Since the day the six-eared macaque existed, it was doomed to be incompatible with that monkey, how could it be possible to live in peace?"
The Tathagata took a deep breath and said: "I heard that the fishermen in the sea put catfish in the fish tank to provoke other fish to run for their lives, so as to ensure their survival. Now it seems that I am afraid that it is to ask the earth Tibetan deity. The man put a catfish into the fish tank of the six-eared macaque. It is rare to be resurrected, and he can't spend his days in depression, and even the catastrophe is coming."
All the Buddhas were silently watching Ksitigarbha.
After a long time, King Ksitigarbha put his hands together, silently bowed to the Tathagata, and bowed out of the hall.
…
Meanwhile, Fengxian County.
"You said... the sweetheart is in the hands of the six-eared macaque?"
Lu Liuguai nodded heavily.
Tianpeng looked at the Bull Demon King in surprise.
The Bull Demon King also nodded heavily.
These two monsters, who would inevitably quarrel when they meet on weekdays, are looking at the canopy together.
Retracted a little, and the canopy hurriedly looked out the window.
Not far away, the monkey was sitting cross-legged on the roof, looking at the west with a look of resentment.
"This matter... haven't told him yet?"
"I don't dare to say it." Lu Liuguai whispered: "The Great Sage is in a bad mood recently. If he finds out, I promise to kill him immediately. So we can only come to you to discuss."
"I don't quite understand, why...why is the sweetheart in the hands of the six-eared macaque? He shouldn't know that the sweetheart is the wind chime. Besides, the sweetheart should be in the Xieyue Sanxingdong... How can..."
"Six-eared macaques don't know, but Heavenly Court and Kunlun Mountains do. I guess it was the rumours that the old immortals deliberately let out in order to cause trouble for us." Lu Liuguai turned towards the monkey's location. Looking around, he said cautiously: "As for why the sweetheart left Xieyue Sanxingdong, I don't know. I always feel that this is a trap."
"Then what are you going to do now? You go to save people... Shouldn't you be able to do it? If you don't say anything, then something will happen to her. Your great sage's temper... You know it."
"This…"
Hear this. Lu Liuguai and the Bull Demon King were half counseled.
After a while, Lu Liuguai took a deep breath and said, "There is news that the sweetheart is with Lady Notre Dame, and it is safe for the time being."
"Is the news reliable?"
"surely reliable."
"It's good to be reliable."
said, the three people in the room looked out the window in unison.
at this time. The monkey had already jumped off the roof. Taking advantage of the gap left by the old county king, he quickly ran to the well where Xuanzang was.
He took a deep breath and shouted at the pitch-black wellhead, with only a little spark of light left in the depths: "Hey, it's me!"
There was no response from the well.
was silent for a while, and then he shouted again: "How long do you want to toss like this? How many days have it been, and there is no end to it? It's not far from Lingshan!"
At the bottom of the well, Xuanzang stretched his voice and replied, "Going west is for Purdue. Not Purdue. What's the use of going west?"
"Fuck! Are you **** called Purdue? In a word, don't talk about the well, I'll move the whole lake for you right away! You have to be so noisy, is it interesting?"
"The poor monk can ask you to move mountains and reclaim the sea, but what about others? This is only one's own efforts, not the way of the world!"
"Then what are you going to do? Do you have to dig into the water? Believe it or not, I'll take a rock and push you down. Let you dig enough?"
Down the well, Xuanzang did not speak any more. Only the cookie-cutter "clanging" sound remains.
As soon as he gritted his teeth, the monkey turned around and brought a big rock, and yelled at the well mouth: "Don't think I dare not, anyway, if you drag on like this, you won't be able to reach Lingshan in this life, so I'll just seal you inside!"
said, with a bang, the well was sealed with a large stone.
However, Xuanzang underneath seemed to know nothing and continued to dig silently.
The two were in a stalemate.
Not long. A demon general quietly poked his head out from the broken wall in the distance and said in a low voice, "Master, the old prince is back, I can't let him see you."
The twisted melon is not sweet.
In desperation, the monkey shook his head and moved the stone back to its place.
From beginning to end, Xuanzang didn't even complain.
…
at this moment. The six-eared macaque was sitting on his throne with a depressed expression on his face.
I don't know when it started, but the six-eared macaque found that once he faced Yang Chan's crying, he would unconsciously panic. That feeling, as if innate.
Could it be the relationship between memory fragments?
The six-eared macaque tried desperately to recall, the more he thought about it, the more his head hurt, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Helpless, I can only think about it.
After finally regaining his strength, he raised his head to face the demon kings and said, "You... who has a way to get that pure heart out of the Notre Dame Palace?"
Hearing the words, the demon kings looked at each other in dismay, and lowered their heads one by one.
"Get out! Useless things!" The six-eared macaque roared violently: "Get out of here!"
With this roar, the demon kings were so frightened that they hurriedly bowed out of the hall one by one.
The Lion Camel King quietly grabbed the Peng Demon King's hand and said, "He... what's the matter?"
"What else could it be?" Peng Demon Wang deliberately raised the tone a little and said: "I'm afraid of my wife. I remember it all. In the future, the matter of the great sage will be done if you can, if you can't... Reply and scold one by one. That's it. The matter of Our Lady, but you have to do it well. Now the resentment below is getting bigger and bigger, and there is only so much we can do."
After saying that, he glanced at the Nine-Headed Worm and several other little demon kings who were walking beside him.
Although the demon kings kept silent, they nodded unconsciously one by one.
At this moment, the goat spirit who first encountered the six-eared macaque came over in a Chinese costume from a distance, hurriedly brushed past the demon kings, and ran directly into the hall.
"Who is this?"
"Who else could he be? He is the new prime minister who is popular. He is lucky, otherwise, with his cultivation and knowledge, he can be the prime minister?"
"With such a person still serving as prime minister, it seems that this country of lions and camels is really not far away."
The Nine-Headed Worm glanced coldly at the demon kings and said in a low voice, "Be careful what you say."
After saying this, several demon kings closed their mouths.
…
In the main hall, the goat spirit put a letter in both hands and said loudly: "Qi, the great sage, just now, someone has stuffed a letter into the minister's mansion. It is for you, the great sage. The minister dare not neglect, I quickly brought it to you, the Great Sage."
The six-eared macaque opened the letter at will, glanced at the place where the signature was signed, and was stunned for a moment.
"Ksitigarbha?"
"Exactly."
"Where is he now?"
"It's in the courtroom."
"Go! Take me to see him!" Said, the six-eared macaque got up and hurried out of the hall. (To be continued~^~)
