"Hehe, little monk, you don't have to worry about my matters!
I have my own place to settle down.
Who knows where your Longevity Town is?
You, a little monk, can go there to beg for alms, but how can I go there?
Do I have to walk there with you? "The boatman waves his hand and says," Let's bid farewell here! "
"Amitabha, Tanyue is right, this poor monk thanks Tanyue!"
The monk bows, but then he seems to have thought of something and hurriedly says, "Oh right, Tanyue, if you go to the Pure Land World again, you can go to the Jinshan Temple beside the Chen River. This poor monk is a monk there. You already know this poor monk's Dharma name, it is Chunzang. This poor monk has a junior named Mingshen, he will give Tanyue some compensation."
"Alright!
Little monk!
This old man already knows!
Go quickly!! "
The boatman stretches and says, "This old man is already old, this trip across the sea will be my last. If there are no accidents, this old man will not go to the Pure Land World again."
"Then …" Chunzang is a bit embarrassed and says in a low voice, "Then what can this poor monk do for Tanyue?
Otherwise, this poor monk will not be able to live with it. "
"How about this!" The boatman thinks for a while and says with a smile, "I wonder if you can meet Mahavairocana?"
"This poor monk does not know." Chunzang answers honestly.
The boatman says with a smile, "How about this, if you meet Mahavairocana, help me ask how many years I can live.
If you can't … then forget it. "
"Western Paradise?
Leiyin Temple? "
Hearing this, Chunzang's eyes flash with a trace of splendor, his fair face seems to blush, and he puts his palms together.
"That's right, this poor monk's goal in this life is Western Paradise. Don't worry, Tanyue, this poor monk will definitely go to Leiyin Temple in Western Paradise. When this poor monk meets Mahavairocana, this poor monk will definitely help Tanyue ask about this matter. However, what is Tanyue's name?
How should this poor monk tell the Revered One? "
"Just say that you are a fisherman on the river!"
The boatman turns his eyes and answers, "Mahavairocana has searched all three continents, he must know this old man."
Chunzang nodded. "I will remember. Old Tanyue, take care."
After saying that, Chun Zang put his palms together and bowed. He looked at the direction and walked away step by step.
His footsteps were firm, and his figure was vigorous, as if he had been walking for hundreds of years.
When Chun Zang was far away, the boatman's body flashed and revealed the appearance of an ape. However, this ape was wearing chainmail and held a magic staff in his hand. He looked very mighty. Wasn't this the Fire Ape, Yuan Tongtian?
"Strange!"
Yuan Tongtian looked at the almost invisible Chunzang and asked in confusion, "Why does Master want me to protect this monk?
It was really unreasonable!
Furthermore, this monk did not have the slightest bit of Buddhist cultivation. He could not even take a single step forward!
From the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss to the Hidden Immortal Continent, he had to rely on the sea boat alone. If it wasn't for my protection on the sea boat, this monk would have already been fed to the fishes.
Why did he come to the Longevity Town of the Hidden Immortal Continent instead of cultivating in the Jinshan Temple? "
"Also, the so-called Western Paradise, Leiyin Temple, isn't it in the Pure Land World?
Even I, who is not a monk, know about it. Why doesn't this little monk know about it?
Isn't he going to the Leiyin Temple in the Pure Land World?
Why did he come to the Hidden Immortal Continent? "
"Sigh, forget it, forget it. Master has given me a new life. Master told me to protect him … I will protect him!
As long as I didn't find the wrong person! "
Yuan Tongtian scratched his ears and cheeks for a moment. He gritted his teeth and rushed into the air. From afar, he watched Chunzang walk step by step into the depths of the Hidden Immortal Continent.
Isn't this Chunzang the Jiang Liuer that Xiao Hua brought from the Xiaoyu Continent to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss?
Chunzang naturally came to the Hidden Immortal Continent because of the Buddhist edict from the Leiyin Temple. However, as for the Western Paradise, is it the Leiyin Temple in the Pure Land World?
Or is it the Western Paradise in Xiao Hua's space?
That is not something that Chunzang can distinguish. Even more so, it is not something that Yuan Tongtian can know!
Who knows when Chunzang will be able to find it!
After walking for half a day, Chunzang saw a fishing village in front of him. A net that was more than ten zhang long was hung on a wooden frame to dry. A few fishermen were lying on the hillside basking in the sun while a few fisherwomen were repairing the net.
Chunzang licked his somewhat dry lips. He quickened his pace and walked forward.
Before he could get close, a group of children playing on the hillside on the left saw him. A few timid ones quickly ran back to the adults. The remaining bold ones quickly ran down the hillside and stared at Chunzang from afar. They looked at his monk robe and bald head.
"Little monk, you came from the Western Paradise?" A fisherwoman not far from Chunzang raised her head. Her hands did not stop working as she shouted again.
"Amitabha ~" Chunzang respectfully saluted and said, "This poor monk came from the Jinshan Temple in the Pure Land World. I want to go to the Immortal Town in the Xi Country of Yu Province. This poor monk encountered a tsunami on the East Sea. Right now, my mouth is thirsty. Can I ask benefactress to give me a bowl of water to drink?"
"Hehe, little monk, you are so soft and tender. You actually crossed the ocean!"
When the fisherwoman heard that Chunzang really came from the Western Paradise, she was not surprised. She smiled and said, "The tsunami a few days ago was indeed rare. In this small village, four people were killed.
However, for a Buddhist expert like this little monk, it is nothing! "
Speaking of this, the fisherwoman suddenly woke up. She asked in surprise, "Little monk, what did you say?
You … you want to drink water?
You monks with great magical powers … still need to drink water? "
In this fisherwoman's view, which monk who came from the Western Paradise to the Hidden Immortal Continent did not fly over the fishermen and fisherwoman's head?
Which one of them would come to this small fishing village?
Even if there were monks who would come to ask for directions, who would come step by step?
Who would ask for water to drink?
"This poor monk specializes in chanting Buddhist scriptures. I don't know Buddhist magical powers. I have a mortal body. Of course, I know that I am thirsty." Chunzang's expression did not change. He replied with a smile.
When the fisherwoman heard this, her eyes were immediately filled with respect. No one knew the dangers of the Eastern Sea better than them who made a living in the sea. Chunzang, a mortal, actually came from the Western Paradise to the Hidden Immortal Continent. Ordinary people could not imagine the hardships he experienced.
"Amitabha ~" The fisherwoman also said the name of Buddha. She hurriedly put down the work in her hand, squatted down, and took out a small black porcelain jar from the side of a stone. She took off the small bowl covering the jar, pulled a cloth from her head and carefully wiped it. She poured a bowl of water in front of Chunzang and said respectfully, "This monk is also an eminent monk. Please drink."
"Thank you, benefactress!"
Chunzang hurriedly took it over and drank it slowly, without spilling a single drop of water on the table.
When Chunzang returned the small bowl, he asked again, "Benefactress, this poor monk also wants to ask, how far is Yuzhou from here? Is this poor monk going in the right direction?"
"This …" The fisherwoman was very hesitant and said embarrassedly, "This servant only knows that this place is the border of Yangzhou. This servant does not know where Yuzhou is."
At this point, the fisherwoman hurriedly called out to the several children beside her, "Second Fish, Third Fish, quickly go and call your father."
"Yes, mother!"
The two children who looked very strong responded cheerfully and ran to the hillside. They also called out, "Father, father …"
The two children ran away, and the other children also ran away.
"Master, drink some more water!" The fisherwoman finally thought of a title and hurriedly picked up the jar again.
"Thank you, benefactress …" Chunzang licked his dry lips and said with a nod.
Not long after, a man with a naked upper body and clothes hanging on his waist quickly walked over. He looked at Chunzang with vigilance and then asked in surprise, "Second Fish's mother, what's the matter?"
"His father …" The fisherwoman rebuked, "Quickly put on your clothes. This is an eminent monk from the Western Paradise.
He wants to ask how to get to Yuzhou. "
"Just fly in that direction!" The man pointed with his finger without hesitation.
"His father … He's asking how to get there!" The fisherwoman poked the man and reminded him.
The man was stunned. He looked up and down at Chunzang and asked curiously, "Since the master can fly, why do you want to walk?"
The fisherwoman hurriedly said, "This master is different from the previous ones. He can't fly. He wants to walk to Yuzhou!"
"Walk?"
The man was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He almost jumped up and said in surprise, "You want to walk to Yuzhou?
This place is … less than 655,555 miles away from Yuzhou?
You … Won't you have to walk for … eight to ten years? "
The man naturally did not walk too far. Naturally, he did not know how long it would take to walk to Yuzhou. His words could only be guessed.
However, when Chunzang heard this, he smiled and still put his palms together and said, "Amitabha. No matter how far it is, this poor monk will go.
This is my Buddha's decree. "
"Amitabha!"
Chunzang had a kind of infectious power. It was a kind of propaganda that came from the inside out. Regardless of whether it was his actions or words, they were filled with a kind of heavy Dharma. People could not help but feel respect and worship in their hearts. The fisherman who was originally vigilant immediately chanted Buddha's name, "The master is really an eminent monk.
Second Fish's mother, quickly prepare some dry food and give it to the master. I'll go and ask for the way to Yuzhou.
Master, please wait here for a moment. "
"Thank you, benefactors. Just ask for the way. There's no need to prepare any dry food. This poor monk can just ask for alms wherever he goes!" Chunzang said amiably.
"That won't do!"
The fisherwoman hurriedly shouted, "This place is very far from the other fishing villages. If the master doesn't bring some dry food, I'm afraid he will starve to death on the way."
"No matter. This poor monk can also eat the wild fruits and other things on the way." Chunzang smiled and waved his hand, "This poor monk came from Jinshan Temple like this."
When they heard that Chunzang came to Hidden Immortal Continent by eating wild fruits, the two fishermen's hearts softened. The fisherman waved his hand domineeringly and said, "Master, if you don't take this dry food, I won't ask for directions for you.
How about I send you to Yuzhou … "
