Chapter Thirteen The Four Saints Test the Zen Mind

"Hmph, what a monk who is ignorant of politeness." The sister-in-law's face turned aside, "You don't want to do it yourself, don't you allow me to recruit one or two of you apprentices?" After she finished speaking, she looked at Sun Wukong. Wukong smiled and said, "Thank you for the good intentions of the owner. I, Old Sun, don't do that, let Junior Brother Sha go."

Sha Wujing was startled! The chest and rib areas that had been feeling well for two months seemed to be about to start to hurt again, so he quickly began to refuse with righteousness.

"Where is the words of the elder brother? I was inspired by the Bodhisattva and guaranteed that Master would go west to obtain the scriptures. I am determined to do such a thing that gave up halfway? I will never stay!" After Sha Seng finished speaking, he felt that there was no pain under his chest and ribs, so he felt relieved and did not look at the beautiful girls.

"What a group of ignorant guys. My family treats you warmly. Could it be that you are neglecting? Since that's the case, you can do it yourself!" After the sister-in-law said that, she took her three daughters back, and asked Zhu Bajie to beat her chest and stamp her feet, constantly complaining: "Oh, Master really can't do things. Wouldn't you be a little slick?"

Tang Monk's remaining energy was not gone: "Bajie, don't talk nonsense!"

Bajie said, "Then you can't say anything and offend people completely? We should be more contented and pretend to agree first, and have a good rest for a meal. Let's discuss whether it will happen in the future. This is better, they will leave us to clean up the dust and cold stoves. How can we live this life..."

"Hmph, you idiot!" Wukong heard this and jumped to Bajie's side, "You don't want to stay and be someone else's son-in-law, right? Don't forget that your brother and sister are still there." He said that, and pointed at Gao Lan with his hand.

"Ah?" Bajie turned around and forgot Gao Lan's eyes, as if he was embarrassed. "I'm just talking about some rights and interests. Who said he would be their son-in-law?" Bajie said, not daring to look at Gao Lan again, but he couldn't help but walk back and forth, saying to himself: "If this horse is hungry for a day, don't count on walking."

After looking at everyone, Bajie came to Tang Seng and said, "Master, have I put the horse on my horse?"

No one birds him.

Seeing this, Bajie hurriedly took the horse and went to the backyard to get crazy. Wukong approached Gao Lan and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, your husband is going to cheat, don't you care about him?" He covered his mouth and laughed secretly. Gao Lan said, "He has this kind of virtue. When he saw Chang'e, he dared to cheat, who can control him?"

As he said that, Gao Lan and Sha Seng went to the kitchen together and began to prepare supper. "This old pig who suffered from plague actually ignored Gao Cuilan on the shore of Daming Lake? Just wait and suffer!" At this time, Gao Lan was also waiting with everyone to see Zhu Bajie make a fool of himself.

Gao Lan was well-dressed and had already prepared before entering the village. He had made some things, so he prepared the meal himself and started eating with Tang Seng and his disciples.

After lunch, Bajie came back. Sun Wukong had already said bad things to Tang Seng, so before Bajie could sit firmly, Tang Seng asked angrily: "Bajie, have you let Malay?"

Bajie felt relieved and just hummed, "There is no good grass, no place to put the horse." Wukong rushed forward and sneered, "There is no place to put the horse, but there is no place to get married!" Bajie suddenly looked anxious and said, "You monkey, don't be me by your own silence. Everyone has this idea, just take my old pig to have fun."

Wukong smiled and said, "Mom has called me, just call me." Before he finished speaking, the sister-in-law had already walked into the hall and said, "Elder, your second disciple has promised me to stay and be my son-in-law. Let's have a good rest at my house today, and it's not too late to get on the road."

Tang Seng was so angry that he said angrily: "Bajie, you!" Bajie was stared at by everyone and couldn't stand up. Seeing that his sister-in-law had left, he didn't care much and followed behind and shouted: "Wait for me, mom!"

Wukong looked at Gao Lan and said, "This idiot doesn't want you anymore. Otherwise, you can just be a disciple and let that tamper stay here as a son-in-law?" He covered his mouth and laughed. Gao Lan also smiled, "If he really has a good home, it's his luck. My Gao family treated him badly, and I will definitely find a way to compensate in the future."

Afterwards, Zhu Bajie went to the inner house and played a marriage with Guanyin's mother and the son-in-law. Tang Seng sat on the chair and recited the scriptures silently, while Sun Wukong was playing with his own. Gao Lan was a person who couldn't rest. Whenever she was at this time, she would practice and didn't want to be a burden when she encountered danger.

"Xiao Gao, your iron spear is pretty good. It's made of black iron and weighs 800 kilograms."

In the backyard, Gao Lan was competing with Sha Seng's martial arts and moves. Sha Seng usually talked much, but he was more friendly with Gao Lan. Gao Lan also liked to deal with such kind and honest people. If Sun Wukong had changed, he would have ridiculed Gao Lan for being too low in magical powers and poor in weapons, but Sha Seng had many words of praise.

"Old Sha, your wand is a good treasure. It weighs 5,040 kilograms! It can be big and small, convenient and agile. Unfortunately, I can't move after just a few strokes." Gao Lan used a few moves with Sha Seng's weapon, and was so tired that her hands and feet were numb and her breathless. However, after visualizing the technique, she quickly recovered.

Although the progress of supernatural powers is slow, Gao Lan is becoming more and more skilled in visualizing and practicing the Reincarnation Sutra. Moreover, she found that the cultivation of this treasure sutra is very good for the recovery of the body. At first, she thought that people in the realm of supernatural powers were like this. It has been four or five months since Gao Lan realized that the treasure sutra she had learned was so magical.

"Haha, I only have magical powers and magic powers, and I don't have magical changes in the immortal class, so I can't compare to the elder brother and the second brother." Sha Seng took back the demon-subduing wand and was modest. Since Gao Lan taught her to practice, she has mostly just fumbled herself. Now that she has met Sha Seng, she can communicate well.

"What are the levels of strength and weakness of gods and immortals? How should the authentic immortals be practiced?"

"It's hard to say this clearly. Supernatural powers refer to the power of the body, and magic powers are the sublimation of supernatural powers." Sha Seng said, waved his hand slightly, and saw an invisible wave of air blowing by, shaking a big tree in the yard.

"But people with supernatural powers may not have magic power, and people with magic powers may not know magic. Like me, I only have magic powers, and can use power to Feiteng, but I cannot use Tengyun spells like the elder brother. A somersault traverses all over the world. However, when the gods and immortals fight, they change rapidly. It is not someone's magic powers, but more magical magics are powerful. I am just an ordinary immortal lower world, and I don't understand the profound practice."

"So that's it." Gao Lan had some clues about cultivation at this time. But from Sha Seng's meaning, it seemed that his strength was not much worse. He was just low-key and based on the principle that it was better to have less than more things, he didn't like to show off. Others couldn't hear this meaning, but Gao Lan understood it very clearly.

Because she has this kind of personality, she is very terrifying.

"Then when can I condense my mana?"

"If there is no special opportunity, it will take at least several decades to practice by yourself, or more than a hundred years." Sha Seng said honestly, "The authentic method of Buddhist practice, the physical power must be at least 30,000 kilograms before the inner elixir can be refined and magical power can be condensed. However, if there is a magical elixir and a magical medicine, the Buddha will be awarded the gods, that's another matter."

"Hey, I really want to walk to Lingshan soon." Gao Lan felt cold when she heard this. According to her current practice progress, a pound of magical power of one or two pounds in a few days is a great fortune for mortals, but for her pursuing the path of immortality, it is too slow, and it is even more difficult than Tang Monk to obtain the scriptures.

Only then did Gao Lan realize how many people had not cultivated magic power until they died and entered the path of immortality. However, they had been involved in the team of seeking scriptures, and Guanyin and the others were not doing anything to them just now. They obviously turned a blind eye and acquiesced Gao Lan to get along. If they could get to Lingshan, they could not get the elixir of immortals, and they would have reached the sky in one step!

Achieve the immortal way and control the law to fly is something Gao Lan wants to pursue in her dreams.

"I will go to the scriptures together to obtain the scriptures!"

After dinner, Gao Lan returned to the room and saw Tang Monk and his group sleeping and meditating. He also found a place to sit down and practice exercises. After midnight, a sudden thunderstorm in the sky woke up Tang Monk. He stood up and said, "It's a pity that Bajie's heart has not diminished, and he can't go to the West."

Wukong looked at the heavy rain outside the window and smiled, "Master, don't worry about him, this idiot is probably dreaming."

In fact, the poor Bajie is now hanging on a big tree, blown by the wind and rain, extremely miserable...

The next morning, the rain stopped and the wind stopped. The group got up and found that the huge manor disappeared without a trace. Everyone was sitting in the wilderness. Tang Monk said in horror: "Wukong, what's going on?" Wukong smiled and said, "This family is too ruthless, so they don't say hello if they move, hehe."

Tang Seng suddenly understood something, and then heard Bajie shouting for help in the distance: "Master, senior brother, come and save me..." Everyone rushed to a tree and saw Bajie hanging on the tree by a net, and he was struggling with great grudges. Tang Seng then realized that this was a trap set by the Bodhisattva.

"Good son-in-law, did you have a good dream last night?" Sun Wukong walked under the tree and was extremely happy. "Bajie, why don't we let our mother-in-law meet and ask for a glass of wedding wine? Where is your demon?" Wukong only laughed at Bajie there, making Tang Seng secretly afraid.

If it weren't for the good luck, he would probably be the one who hung here today.

While Tang Seng was glad, he was even more ashamed: Sun Wukong had long seen the reputation, but there was no hint at all! When he thought about how if Chen was hung here, how could he meet people in the future? How could he have the attitude to take a few disciples to the West to obtain the scriptures? The more Tang Seng thought about it, the more annoyed he felt, and finally couldn't help but roar.

"Wukong, why don't you put Bajie down!"

When Sun Wukong saw Tang Monk getting angry, he had to stop laughing and put Bajie down. Tang Monk said, "Bajie was confused for a while, and now he was enlightened by the Bodhisattva. Wukong, you should forgive others, so how can you repeatedly laugh at your junior brother? Don't mention this matter in the future. It's important for us to hurry up as soon as possible."

As Tang Seng said, everyone packed up their things and went on the road. Along the way, they comforted Bajie and accused Monkey Head from time to time, which made Sun Wukong both depressed and puzzled. It was Zhu Bajie who made the mistake, but why did I always get scolded? Gao Lan and Sha Seng looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

Guanyin and his friends' plays are really not so clever. Not only does they not calm down on their Zen mind, but they have created a crack in the originally happy team to obtain scriptures.

Gao Lan even doubted whether they were the Infernal Affairs sent by the White Bone Demon.
