The demon king Mingtong said, "With the help of all the senior brothers, my disciples can hold off the Buddhist monk for a month and dare not rob him of his merits."

The panda nodded and grabbed the Mingtong demon king, who just turned into a grass in a moment. After a group of immortals were "rescued", the array of Yin and Yang in Gankun disappeared. After the Tang Priest was rescued, he lost two laps, and his sunken eyes made him look depressed. Another month of torture directly made him no different from a beggar.
The panda shook his head when he saw the Tang Priest’s miserable condition, and a real yuan entered his body. Tang Priest quickly recovered to his former appearance and grew fatter. Seeing that Tang Priest recovered to his white fat appearance, the panda said to himself, "This Tang Priest can’t be too thin. If he doesn’t have a few pounds of meat all over his body, who else will eat him along the way?"
Tang Priest was depressed when he was rescued before, and he only relied on that will to support him. Now he is helped by a panda, exhausted and full of strength. The Tang Priest had previously seen the panda pointing at a group of immortals, and the immortals were respectful to him and called on the real people. Naturally, he would not regard the panda as a monster, and bowed to the panda and said, "Thank you for saving the real people. I am grateful."
"Tang Xuanzang," said the panda, "there are countless demons and disasters on the way to get the scriptures. Now you have only met the first robbery. How do you feel?"

Chapter IV the Monkey King extricating itself from difficulties
The Tang Priest put his hands together and said, "The poor monk was instructed by Guanyin Bodhisattva to go west to learn Buddhist scriptures. Now he hasn’t left the Tang territory and didn’t get the scriptures, so he dare not return. At the beginning, the poor monk swore that he would never return. If he didn’t swear, he would go back to his promise. Otherwise, it would be against his true heart. Since he violated his true heart, he could not learn Buddhism. Buddhism could not tell the poor monk how to face my Buddha.
Panda quickly interrupted Tang Priest’s words and said, "Now I understand that the monk has a firm belief in learning scriptures. Just go west. Whenever there is a disaster along the way, there will be a fairy to help him. There should be someone waiting for him not far ahead. Just go west."
"Thank you for your advice," said the Tang Priest, "but I don’t know where my horse is. How to continue to go west? How can I get to the Western Heaven without horse baggage along the way? "
The Tang Priest’s remark came when someone brought him a package. The panda said, "The package is still there, but the horse has become the food of this pair of fork ridge demons. It’s a long way for a monk to go west to learn from the scriptures. How can an ordinary horse go to the west? I will send you a Bai Longma to help you go west to learn from the scriptures."
With a wave of the panda’s hand, a little white dragon flew out of his sleeve and turned into a white horse. Then the pandas all drove away. Tang priest was ready to say a few more words of thanks, but he didn’t have a chance, so he had to take the baggage and sit on a white horse and head west.
After the pandas returned to heaven, the Jade Emperor greeted them with a group of fairy officials. The Jade Emperor said, "I’m sorry that the real person surrendered to this demon, but I don’t know where this demon came from. Not even the three kings? "
The panda reached out and a grass stood in the palm. "This thing is a clear grass at the beginning of the mountains, and it is spirituality that is born with it. It’s just that it’s hard to be born, and it took years of practice to get the word. Luo Jinxian, who has great strength, is also defeated, and he has more help as he pleases. Naturally, it is not something that the three kings can win. Nowadays, there are few flowers and plants in Penglai, which is rare in the three realms of Ming Tong Cao. It just happens to be taken back for planting, so the Jade Emperor won’t mind. "
The Jade Emperor said with a smile, "Since this demon is surrendered by a real person, it should be handled by a real person. It is important for real people to help the Heaven to subdue the demon, so I will set a banquet. I’ve been waiting for a long time I still hope that real people will not turn away. "
Panda smiled and said, "The Jade Emperor is kind. How can I turn it down and go with him?"
Panda and Jade Emperor didn’t mention the banquet. The Tang Priest went all the way to the west and climbed mountains and mountains. It was easy for Bai Longma to sit down. It was only a day to reach the boundary of Wuxing Mountain. Now it’s getting dark, and Tang Priest can only find a place to spend the night. However, there is no cave in the boundary of Wuxing Mountain for the night, so the Tang Priest had to move on, hoping to find a family to stay overnight.
When night came, Tang Priest got tired after sitting on a horse for a whole day, so he dismounted and walked. Bai Longma is the White Dragon in the East China Sea, so he naturally follows the Tang Priest. The man walked to the foot of the mountain alone, but he didn’t find anyone else. He could only hope to spend the night at the foot of the mountain. Tang Priest put away his baggage and was just about to find a place to sit down. He didn’t want to fall into a pit with no weight at his feet. Oddly enough, Tang Priest only felt the wind in his ear. Never see the end.
After falling for a long time, Tang Priest naturally knew that his life was in danger, closed his eyes and meditated on the Heart Sutra, ready to die. Suddenly, he only felt that the world was turned upside down, and he just fell rapidly and became a rapid rise.
After a while, the Tang Priest was thrown out of the hole and landed beside the hole. Before he knew it, he heard a loud noise. Then a voice said angrily, "It was that blind man who dared to throw something at my old grandson’s underground hole. Tired of living? "
The Tang Priest was startled by the sound and looked back at the sound source. With the help of moonlight, he clearly saw a monster with hairy face and tripterygium wilfordii mouth glaring at himself. His eyes gave off golden light and looked ferocious and terrible in the moonlight. Just now, the Tang Priest was stunned by falling into the underground hole, and was startled by the sound. Now, he was startled by the ferocious appearance close at hand, so the Tang Priest passed out directly.
At dawn, Tang Priest slowly opened his eyes and saw a monster with a hairy face and a tripterygium wilfordii mouth staring at himself. How many Tang Priest hairs on the monster’s face can be clearly seen. "The devil. Monster. "
The Monkey King grabbed the Tang Priest who wanted to escape and pulled him back into the circle. "My old grandson is the Monkey King, the Great Sage of Qitian, not a monster. Are you the monk who went west to fetch scriptures?"
The Tang Priest shivered and said, "I’m the one who went west to get the scriptures. I wonder what the Great Sage means?"
The Monkey King said, "At the beginning, I lost a bet with the Tathagata, and I was trapped in this circle. Now that you are destined to come, get me out of here quickly. My old grandson doesn’t want to stay in this circle for another 500 years."
The Tang Priest looked at this one-foot circle, and below it was a bottomless pit. Now they are hanging in the hole, and last night he accidentally fell into the hole in this circle.
"Great Sage, you can get out of this small circle in one step. Why do you want me to save you?" Tang Priest is puzzled.
The Monkey King sighed, "You don’t know. At the beginning, I lost a bet with the Tathagata’s old son. He asked me to stay in this circle for 500 years and wait for you to save me out. If I go out by myself, it will be a breach of my promise. My old grandson is a great sage in heaven. How can I go back on my word? Now get me out of here quickly so that I can protect you from going west to learn from the scriptures."
Tang Priest heard the Monkey King say that he wanted to escort him west to learn the scriptures. Recalling what the real panda said that day, he was convinced that the Monkey King was the one who escorted him, and he was no longer afraid. He asked, "I am just an ordinary monk. How can I get you out?"
Hearing this, the Monkey King scratched his ears, but he didn’t know how to get Tang Priest to rescue him. Finally, he said helplessly, "Go out first and pull my old grandson out, so you can save me. If Tathagata goes back on his word, I will be justified."
Tang Priest hurried out of the circle and stood on the ground before settling down. Then he made a bow to the west, and then he reached out and pulled the Monkey King out of the circle. As soon as the Monkey King got out of the circle, he went straight on the cloud and did some somersaults. After a while, he returned to Tang Priest’s side and bowed to Tang Priest three times, saying, "Thank you, Master, for saving my old grandson’s suffering. In the future, my old grandson will escort the master to the west to learn from the scriptures. "
The Tang Priest was puzzled. "I just rescued you, but I didn’t accept you as a disciple. Why should I be called a teacher?"
The Monkey King said, "Master, I don’t know. At the beginning, my grandson had a bet with the Tathagata, and the person who saved me in the future had to grant him a wish. When Guanyin Bodhisattva came here, she asked me to be your apprentice and escort you to the west to learn from the scriptures. Therefore, my grandson will worship you as a teacher. "
The Tang Priest nodded and said, "It was Guanyin Bodhisattva who enlightened you. No wonder."
The Monkey King stepped forward to pick up the baggage and led the dragon horse towards the Tang Priest. Seeing his kindness, the Tang Priest really looked like a Saman. He asked, "Disciple, don’t you know your name as a teacher?" Wukong said, "My surname is Sun Wukong."
The Tang Priest was overjoyed and said, "It is also in line with our sect. You look just like that little Buddhist monk. I’ll call you Monkey again, okay? " Wukong said, "OK, OK, OK!" Since then, it has also been called Sun Walker.
The Tang Priest was so hungry that he didn’t eat for a day. the Monkey King naturally knew that he had to wait for a moment and drive alone. Moreover, he brought back many fruits and vegetables to satisfy his hunger. Then they went to the west. The master and the apprentice walked dozens of miles to stay in a family for one night, and then the Monkey King killed a group of robbers. The Tang Priest couldn’t bear to see it, so he began to say that the Monkey King didn’t come. Then the Monkey King was angry with the Tang Priest and left alone. Then Guanyin tricked the monkey into wearing a golden hoop. After reading it for a while, Tang Priest saw that the monkey was in unbearable pain, and he really couldn’t bear to read it again. He remembered that he had to do it when the old Zen master taught him.
"Wukong," said the Tang Priest, "I don’t want to use this spell to control you because of your wild at heart. This spell was handed down by Guanyin Bodhisattva. As long as you convert to Buddhism from now on, you won’t use it as a teacher."
The Monkey King said angrily, "It turned out that Guanyin’s thief wife hurt me, so my old grandson is going to get even with her."
"Wukong, this spell is taught by Guanyin Bodhisattva. You will only ask for it if you go, or listen to the teacher’s words. Don’t move and kill again. As long as you listen to the teacher’s words, you will naturally not read you with this spell. It is important to know that when I wait for my family to be compassionate, all beings are equal, and killing is the most taboo. How can you get to the West and achieve positive results if you are so reckless? "
The Monkey King listened to the Tang Priest’s words and said, "Since that woman Guanyin taught this monk to restrain me, I want to know this spell. I will only ask for it when I go. I might as well write down this revenge and pay it back later."
"Master, disciples know their mistakes, so in the future, they should listen to the master’s teaching and stop killing their minds. Remember the master’s teaching." The Monkey King pretended to be a convert, folded his hands and made a sincere pilgrimage to Sanzang.
The Tang Priest nodded and said, "Now that you know the truth, you are glad to be a teacher. Don’t kill at random in the future, knowing that killing is a sin, how can I, a Buddhist, make things up and kill evil and harm all beings? All living beings are creatures of heaven and earth, and they all have ways to survive. If you kill at random, you will break the way of heaven and earth, and you should not. Besides, people who kill things have too much thoughts in their hearts, and their nature can’t achieve the goal of nothing. My Buddhist people can’t kill things if they want nothing … "
As they walked along, Tang Priest preached to the Monkey King and told the monkey the whole Buddhist Zen machine, hoping that the monkey would understand his painstaking efforts. The Tang Priest naturally won’t believe that the monkey will convert in a moment and stop making mistakes, so he will keep talking.
