Chapter 1517: The Taste of Peace

~4 min read 604 words

"On this trip, follow Venerable Kasyapa to the path that Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six must pass."

"Transform into four women and use beauty to test whether Tang Sanzang and his disciples have a firm heart seeking the Buddha."

"Amitabha."

Venerable Kasyapa, Bodhisattva Manjusri, and the others, hearing Maitreya Buddha's words,

all performed a Buddhist salute.

Such an action naturally expressed their meaning of accepting the order.

Faced with such benefits, as long as one is not a fool, one will not refuse.

A simple Four Saints Testing the Zen Heart does not require fighting with strong opponents, nor does it require paying any price.

They only need to pay a little bit of beauty to exchange for a share of merit.

Such a good thing, the group of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas around, looking at the four of them, could be said to be full of envy.

Therefore, after receiving this task from Maitreya Buddha, Venerable Kasyapa did not even care about his state of just returning to Western Lingshan.

He immediately took Bodhisattva Manjusri, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra, and Bodhisattva Lingji down to the mortal world together.

They found a path that Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six master and disciples must pass,

preparing to properly test their heart seeking the Buddha.

Venerable Kasyapa, Bodhisattva Manjusri, and the others acted very quickly.

After all, they were all cultivators, and they were all powerful cultivators.

Therefore, in just half a day's time, they had already found an extremely suitable location.

But on the other side.

Although the actions of Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six master and disciples were not slow,

they were limited by Tang Sanzang's mortal body.

Therefore, this journey took nearly two months.

Of course, in this month or so, although the journey of Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six master and disciples was arduous,

compared to the previous movements at Huangfeng Ridge or the Liusha River,

such a peaceful period of time could be said to be very rare.

In these days without tribulations of obtaining scriptures, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six master and disciples felt the taste of peace for the first time in a long while.

However, happy times are always short.

On this day, Sun Wukong, through his Fiery Eyes, saw a manor ahead.

Of course, if it were an ordinary manor, Sun Wukong would not feel nervous.

After all, along this journey, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, and the group of six master and disciples had not failed to encounter manors.

Even the six of them had borrowed lodging in quite a few.

But this manor placed before Sun Wukong,

even if Sun Wukong used his Fiery Eyes, he could not see through it.

Under these circumstances, Sun Wukong naturally knew that this manor before him was likely one of the eighty-one tribulations of the Journey to the West.

So Sun Wukong turned back and looked directly at Tang Sanzang, saying:

"Master, there is a manor ahead. Shall we go and borrow lodging for the night?"

While Sun Wukong said this, he did not forget to use magic power to transmit sound to let Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian pay attention.

"Idiot, Old Sha, the manor ahead is strange. We must be careful this time."

Marshal Tianpeng and General Juan Lian, hearing these words from Sun Wukong, also nodded at Sun Wukong calmly,

indicating that they already knew what Sun Wukong had said.

Of course, Sun Wukong had not thought about the idea of taking a detour. ===== CHAPTER 1519 =====
