The masterpiece Journey to the West

Chapter 5: The Great Sage Peach steals elixirs to rebel against the gods of the Heavenly Palace to catch monsters

The words show that the Great Sage Qi Tian is a monster after all, and he does not know his official title, nor his salary. High or low, but only in name. The two immortal officials under the Qitian Mansion were waiting in the morning and evening. They only had three meals a day and three meals a day, and slept on the same couch at night. They had nothing to worry about and were free. In my free time, I would visit the palace with friends and make friends. When meeting the Three Pure Ones, he is called "Lao", and when meeting the Four Emperors, he is called "Your Majesty". With the nine obsidian stars, the five generals, the twenty-eight constellations, the four heavenly kings, the twelve Yuan Chens, the five elders of the five directions, the universal stars, and the gods of rivers and lakes, they all treat each other as brothers and call each other. Traveling east today, wandering west tomorrow, clouds come and go, whereabouts are uncertain. Lord

One day, when the Jade Emperor came to court early in the morning, Xu Jingyang, the real person, appeared from the squad and bowed his head and said: "Today there is the Great Sage Qitian, who travels around leisurely every day, making friends with all the stars in the sky, no matter how high or low they are. We all call him friends. I'm afraid I might cause trouble in my spare time. If I don't deal with him, I won't cause any trouble." Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor immediately issued an edict. The Monkey King came happily and said: "Your Majesty, what kind of reward can I ask for?" The Jade Emperor said: "I see that you have nothing to do, so I will work with you. You can take charge of the peach garden. Sooner or later, I will take care of you." "The great sage thanked him happily, sang upwards and retired. Knowing

they were not too busy, so they went into the peach garden to investigate. There was a land in the garden, and he stopped him and asked, "Where is the Great Sage going?" The Great Sage said, "I am entrusted by the Jade Emperor to take charge of the peach garden, and now I am here to investigate." The land quickly saluted and called the group. The tree-hoeing warriors, the water-carrying warriors, the peach-culturing warriors, and the cleaning warriors all came to kowtow to the great sage and lead him in. But seeing that——knowing

The sun is shining brightly, every single one. The trees are filled with scorching flowers, and the trees are covered with fruits. The fruits are heavy on the branches, and brocades hang down from the branches, and the flowers are full of rouge clusters on the trees. It blooms at the same time and matures for a thousand years. There is no summer and no winter for ten thousand years. The mature ones have a blushing face and the raw ones have pedunculated green skin. The smoke-condensing skin is green, reflecting the sun and showing its beauty. Under the trees, there are strange flowers and flowers, which are in full color at any time of the year. The left and right balconies and buildings are often covered with clouds. It is not a common seed in Xuandu, it is cultivated by the Queen Mother of Yaochi. Zhi

The great sage watched and played for a long time and asked Tutu: "How many trees are there in this tree?" Tutu said: "There are 3,600 trees. The first 1,200 trees have tiny flowers and small fruits. Once ripe, a person will become an immortal after eating the 1,200 trees in the middle, with sweet and fruity flowers. The purple-striped kernels are ripe once in nine thousand years, and a person who eats them will live as long as the heaven and the earth, and the sun and the moon will have the same age." When the great sage heard this, he was overjoyed. He identified the trees that day, looked at the pavilions and returned to his home. From then on, I only visited once every three to five days, and did not make friends or travel with others. Zhai

One day, he saw that the peaches on the old branch were mostly ripe, and he wanted to try something new. However, it is inconvenient for the land of this garden, the powerful men and the immortal officials of Qitian Mansion to follow closely. Suddenly he made a plan and said, "You go out and wait for me, and let me rest in this pavilion for a while." The immortal fruits retreated. I saw the monkey king taking off his crown and clothes, climbing up a big tree, picking the big ripe peaches, picking many, and enjoying themselves on the branches. After he was full, he jumped down from the tree, put on his hairpin and crown, and summoned the crowd. Wait for Yi to return home. Three or two days later, he went to try to steal peaches and enjoy them as much as he could. Once upon a time, the Queen Mother held a banquet, opened a treasure pavilion, and held a peach gathering in the Yao Pond, where the fairies in red, green, plain, soap, purple, and yellow were held. Fairies and fairies in green clothes each carry flower baskets and go to the peach orchard to pick peaches for a party. The fairies in seven clothes went to the front of the garden gate, where they saw the land of Pantaoyuan, the powerful men and the two immortal officials of Qitian Mansion, all guarding the gate. The fairy came forward and said, "We are here to pick peaches and hold a banquet on the orders of the Queen Mother." Tudi said, "Xian'e will stay here. This year is no better than in previous years. The Jade Emperor is here to supervise the point difference, and the Great Sage Qitian must be rewarded." The great sage dared to open the garden after learning about it. "The fairy said, "Where is the great sage?" Tu Tu said, "The great sage is in the garden and is sleeping on the pavilion because he is sleepy." The fairy said, "In that case, go find him. Come, don't delay." The land came with him. When he found the flower pavilion, he could not find it. Only his clothes and clothes were in the pavilion. He didn't know where he was going, and he couldn't find him anywhere. It turned out that the great sage played for a while, ate a few peaches, transformed into a two-inch-long man, and fell asleep under the thick leaves on the top of the big tree. The fairy in seven clothes said: "We came here with the order, but we can't find the great sage. How dare we go back empty-handed?" I went out to meet friends in the garden. You go and pick peaches, and we will answer for you." The fairy followed the instructions and went into the woods to pick peaches. First I picked two baskets from the front tree, then three baskets from the middle tree, and then I picked from the back tree. I saw that there were only a few flowers and fruits on the tree with hairy stems and green skin. It turns out that the monkey king ate all the cooked ones. The seven fairies looked east and west and saw a half-red and half-white peach on the branch toward the south. The woman in green pulled off the branch with her hands, and the woman in red picked it, then looked up at the branch. It turned out that the great sage had changed and was sleeping on this branch when he woke him up. The Great Sage appeared in his true form, pulled out a golden cudgel from his ear, held it as thick as a bowl, and said loudly: "You are that monster, how dare you steal my peaches!" The seven fairies all knelt down in panic. He said, "Great Sage, please calm down. We are not monsters, but seven-clothed fairies sent by the Queen Mother to pick fairy peaches, open a treasure pavilion, and hold a peach festival. When we arrived here, we first met the gods of the land in our garden and found them. The great sage is missing. We are afraid that we will delay the Queen Mother's decree, so we will pick peaches here first. Wanwang forgives me." Upon hearing this, the great sage replied with anger and said happily: "Xian'e, please get up.

The Queen Mother holds a banquet in her pavilion, who does she invite? "The fairy said: "The meeting has its own old rules. The people invited are Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, holy monks and Arhats in the west, Guanyin in the south and Antarctica, Chong'en Saint Emperor in the east, immortals in the ten continents and three islands, Xuanling in the north and the Yellow Pole in the center. Huangjiao Daxian, this is the Five Elders of the Five Directions. There are also the Five Dou Xing Lords, the Three Pure Ones, the Four Emperors, the Taiyi Celestial Immortal in the upper eight caves, the Jade Emperor, the Nine Bases, and the Haiyue Immortals in the middle eight caves; All the deities, big and small, from all the palaces and halls went to the Peach Festival together. The great sage smiled and said, "Can you invite me?" "The fairy said: "I have never heard of it. The great sage said: "I am the great sage Qitian, so why not ask me, my old grandson, to be your honorary minister?" The fairy said: "This is the old rule of the previous meeting. I don't know what to do now." The Great Sage said: "This is also the case. No wonder you and others." You just sit down and wait for Lao Sun to go get some news first and see if you can invite Lao Sun or not. "Lord

The great sage, twisting the secrets, reciting the incantation, said to the fairies: "Stay, stay, stay." This turned out to be a method of immobilizing the seven-clothed fairies one by one. Standing under the peach tree with eyes wide open, the great sage jumped out of the garden and ran towards Yaochi Road. As he was walking, he saw the wall room - Zhai.

One day. The auspicious light is swaying, and the five-color auspicious clouds are flying endlessly. The sound of white cranes is vibrating, and the purple zhizhi is divided into thousands of leaves.

In the middle, an immortal with a majestic and colorful appearance appears. Xiao, the treasure basket hanging on the waist has no birth or death.

The name is Barefoot Daluo Immortal. He specially went to Pantao Tianshou Festival. In ancient times, the Barefoot Daluo Immortal met the Great Sage face to face. He lowered his head and made a plan to win over the real immortal. He wanted to go to the meeting secretly, but he asked: "Where is the old man going? The Great Immortal said, "Queen Mother Meng saw the invitation and went to the Peach Festival." The great sage said: "I don't know." The Jade Emperor, because of Lao Sun's somersault, invited everyone from all directions, first to His Highness Tongming to perform a ceremony, and then to the banquet. The Great Immortal was an upright man, so he took his lie as the truth and said, "I have been performing ceremonies in Yaochi all year round to express my gratitude. How can I go to Tongming Hall to perform ceremonies first and then go to Yaochi to attend the meeting?" "Having no choice but to turn away the auspicious clouds, he went straight to Tongming Hall. Zhai

The great sage rode on the clouds, chanted a mantra, transformed into a barefoot immortal, and ran towards the Yaochi. Not long after, until Treasure Pavilion, hold the cloud head, move gently, and walk inside, only to see there - Zhi

The fragrance is lingering, the auspicious mist is colorful, the Bao Pavilion is covered with phoenix clouds. The flying luan is ethereal, and the shadows of golden flowers and jade calyxes are arranged on it. On it are nine phoenixes, red rosy clouds, eight treasures and purple neon piers. On the table are dragon livers and phoenix marrow, bear paws and orangutan lips. The delicacies are all delicious, and the fruits and delicacies are fresh and colorful. The place is neatly laid out, but no immortal has come yet. , Turning around sharply, I saw under the long corridor on the right wall, there were several immortal officials making wine, warriors doing the work, leading a few Taoists carrying water, and boys lighting fires. They were washing jars and brushing urns there, and the jade liquid had been created. The great sage couldn't stop salivating, so he wanted to eat it. But those people were here, so he used his magical power to pluck out a few hairs, threw them into his mouth, chewed them, sprayed them out, and chanted. A mantra called "Change!" "He turned into a few sleepy men and ran in front of everyone. Look at that group of people, their hands were soft and their heads were lowered, their eyebrows were closed, and they all went to sleep without the butler. But the great sage brought some delicacies and delicacies. After eating it, he walked into the long corridor, sat next to the jar, drank as much as he could, and after eating it for a long time, he got drunk and said to himself: "No, no!" After a while, the invited guests come and you don’t blame me? How can it be better to hold it for a while? It's better to go back to the mansion and sleep early. "Zhi

What a great sage, he was swaying, drinking, and rambling as he pleased. After a while, he lost his way. It was not Qitian Mansion, but Tusita Palace. As soon as he saw it, he suddenly woke up. : "Tushita Palace is above thirty-three days, and it is the place where the Supreme Master of Lihentian lives. How did he end up here by mistake? Whatever, whatever! I have always wanted to visit this old man, but I have never been able to do so. Now that I am disabled, I might as well pay him a visit. "I undressed and ran in. There was no Laojun there, and there was no one around. It turned out that Laojun and the ancient Buddha Ran Deng were preaching on the Zhuling Alchemy Platform in the three-storey high pavilion, and all the immortal boys, immortal generals, immortal officials, and immortal officials were there. The attendants stood around to listen to the lecture. The great sage went to the alchemy room but did not find it. He saw five gourds placed in the furnace beside the alchemy stove. The gourds were full of refined golden elixirs and he said happily. This thing is the most precious treasure of the immortal family. Since he became a Taoist, Lao Sun has seen through the principle of the sameness between inside and outside, and he also wants to refine some golden elixirs to help people, and he never expects to be free at home. Today I have a chance, but I bumped into this thing again. While I'm not here, I'm waiting for me to take a few pills to try something new. "He poured out all the gourd and ate them all, just like eating fried beans. Zhai

Danman sobered up and thought to himself: "No, no!" This disaster is bigger than the sky. If the Jade Emperor is alarmed, his life will be difficult to survive. Go, go, go! Why don't you go down to the next world and be the king? "He ran out of Tushita Palace, and instead of taking the old road, he used the invisible method to escape from the West Tianmen, then pressed the cloud head and returned to the Huaguoshan boundary. But when he saw the flags shining and the halberds shining, they turned out to be the four strong generals. The Great Sage was practicing martial arts with the Seventy-Two Cave Demon King, shouting: "Young men! I'm coming too! The monsters threw away their equipment and knelt down and said, "The Great Sage is so relieved!" You left me waiting for a long time without coming to see me! The Great Sage said: "Not long, not long!" "As he spoke and acted, he entered the depths of the cave.

The four generals cleaned and rested, kowtowed and bowed their heads. They all said, "What role has the great sage held during the hundred years he has been in heaven?" The great sage smiled and said, "I can only remember half a year, so how can I talk about it for a hundred years?" Said: "One day in the sky means one year below." The Great Sage said: "I am glad that the Jade Emperor fell in love with each other. He was granted the title of Great Sage Qitian, built a Qitian Mansion, and established two divisions: Anjing and Ningshen. Later, when he saw that I had nothing to do, he asked me to take care of the peach garden. Because the Queen Mother held a peach gathering and did not invite me, I went to Yaochi first to give him the immortal wine. I ate them all secretly. After walking out of Yaochi, I stumbled into Laojun's palace and ate his five gourd golden elixirs. p>

When the monsters heard this, they were overjoyed. They arranged wine and fruit to catch the wind, filled a stone bowl with coconut wine and served it to him. The Great Sage took a sip and immediately said to his teeth: "It's not delicious, it's not delicious!" Generals Beng and Ba said: "The Great Sage was in the Heavenly Palace and ate immortal wine and delicacies, so the coconut wine is not very delicious. . As the saying goes, the water in the countryside is not beautiful. "The great sage said: "You are friends or not, people from my hometown. When I was enjoying it in Yaochi this morning, I saw many bottles and jars under the corridor. You have never tasted that jade liquid and fine wine. When I steal a few more bottles, you will each drink half a cup and you will live forever." The monkeys were overjoyed. The great sage immediately walked out of the cave, turned somersaults, and used the invisibility method to walk to the peach gathering. Entering Yaochi Palace, I saw that those who made wine, plated grains, transported water, and lit fires were still snoring. He took two big ones from his left and right sides, and carried two in each hand. Then he turned around and came back. Everyone was in the cave, and they had a fairy wine party. Everyone drank a few glasses, and they were happy. Zhi

But he said that the seven-clothed fairy had received the magic of the Great Sage, and she could be freed only after a week. Each of them carried a flower basket and echoed the Queen Mother's words: "The Great Sage Qitian used the magic to trap us. "That's why I'm late." The Queen Mother asked, "How many flat peaches did you pick?" The fairy said, "There were only two baskets of small peaches and three baskets of medium peaches. There were not even half of the big peaches. I think they were all stolen by the great sages." When we were looking for him, the great sage came out unexpectedly, tortured us, and asked who we were inviting to the banquet. After we told him about the meeting, he stopped us and disappeared. We didn't know where he was until now. Come back." After hearing this, the Queen Mother immediately went to see the Jade Emperor to prepare the matter. I couldn't say it, but I saw the wine-making group, together with the immortal officials and others, came to report: "I don't know who disrupted the peach gathering and secretly ate the jade liquid and fine wine, as well as all the eight delicacies and flavors." Another person said. Four great heavenly masters came to play: "The Supreme Taoist Patriarch is here." The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother went out to greet him. After the ceremony, the old man said: "In the old Taoist palace, I have refined some nine-turn golden elixirs and served your majesty for the elixir-yuan conference. Unexpectedly, they were stolen by thieves. I specially ask your majesty to know about it." The Jade Emperor was horrified when he saw the memorial. After a while, another immortal official from Qitian Mansion kowtowed and said: "Sun Dasheng did not obey the deacon's duty. He has been traveling since yesterday and has not returned yet, and his whereabouts are unknown." The Jade Emperor added to his doubts, and saw the barefoot immortal again playing on his font: "Your Majesty. I was ordered by the Queen Mother to attend the meeting yesterday. I met the Great Sage Qitian. He told me that he had a purpose for long live. He invited me to go to Tongming Hall to perform a ceremony before going to the meeting. Following his words, I returned to the outside of Tongming Hall. The long-awaited dragon chariot and phoenix chariot are not seen, and they are here to wait for you." The Jade Emperor was even more shocked and said: "This guy is pretending to convey the decree to coax the wise minister. Hurry up and check the spirit officer to find out where this guy is!" Lord

After receiving the order, the Lingguan immediately went out of the palace to visit and get all the details. He replied: "The one who disturbed the Heavenly Palace is the Great Sage Qitian." He also told all the previous events. The Jade Emperor was greatly annoyed, so he sent the four heavenly kings to cooperate with King Li and Prince Nezha to point out the twenty-eight constellations, the nine obsidian star officials, the twelve yuan chen, the five directions, the four merits, the east and west stars, the two gods of the north and the south, and the four mountains. Du and the stars in the sky gathered hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers, laid out eighteen heavenly and earthly nets, and went down to the Huaguo Mountain to besiege him, and he was determined to capture and punish him. The gods became the masters and left the heavenly palace. When I went there, I saw that——Zhi

The rolling yellow wind covered the dark sky, and the purple mist covered the dark ground. He only deceives God for the monster monkey, causing all the saints to descend into the mortal world. The four heavenly kings reveal the truth in the five directions: The power of the four heavenly kings is the total system, and the truth revealed in the five directions mobilizes many troops. Li Tuota, the commander of the army, was in charge of the attack, and he was the vanguard of Nezha. Luohuixing is the first checkpoint, and Jiduxing follows. The lunar star is full of energy and the sun star shines clearly. The five planets tend to be heroes, and the nine-star likes to fight with each other the most. Yuan Chenxing Ziwu Maoyou are all powerful heavenly beings. The five plagues and five mountains are placed east and west, and the six dings and six armors are placed left and right. The four dragon gods are divided into upper and lower parts, and the twenty-eight places are densely layered. The horny Di Fang is the general leader, and Kui Lou's stomach is used to churning. The bullfighting girl is in danger of the walls of the room, and all the stars in her heart are capable. The ghost in the well, the willow star, Zhang Yizhen, the wheel gun, the sword dance show their power. The clouds stopped and fog descended upon the mortal world, and we set up camp in front of Huaguo Mountain. Lord

The poem says: Knowing

The natural monkey king has many changes, stealing elixirs and wine from Leshan's nest. Just because of disturbing the Peach Club, hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers set up a trap. Ancient

At that time, King Li Tian sent an order and all the heavenly soldiers set up camp and surrounded the Huaguo Mountain. Eighteen dragnets were deployed up and down, and Jiu Yao Evil Star was sent to fight first. Jiu Yao immediately led his troops to the outside of the cave and saw a large group of monkeys jumping and playing outside the cave. The star officer shouted loudly: "Little demon! Where is your great sage? We are the gods sent by the upper world to surrender your rebellious great sage. Teach him to come and surrender quickly; if you are half the way, "No" means you will all be punished!" The little demon hurriedly said: "Great Sage, it's a disaster, it's a disaster! There are nine evil gods outside, claiming to be gods sent from the upper world, and they have surrendered to the Great Sage. "Lord

The great sage was drinking immortal wine with the seventy-two cave demon kings and the four strong generals. When he heard this report, he openly ignored him and said: "There is wine today and you will be drunk now. Don't worry about the door. Yes and no.

Unable to speak, the little demon jumped up again and said, "Those nine fierce gods are shouting evil words and scolding and fighting in front of the door!" The great sage smiled and said: "Don't pick him." Poetry, wine and pictures of today's happiness, don't ask when fame will be achieved. Before he could finish talking, another little demon came to report: "Grandpa!" The nine fierce gods have broken down the door and are trying to get in! The great sage said angrily: "This hair-throwing god is so rude!" I don't want to argue with him, so how could he come to bully me? "I ordered the one-horned ghost king to lead the seventy-two cave demon kings out into the battle, and Lao Sun led the four strong generals to follow. The ghost king quickly commanded the demon soldiers to go out to meet the enemy, but he was killed by the evil stars of the Nine Obsidian and blocked the iron bridge. No way. Zhai

While shouting, the great sage arrived and shouted: "Open the way!" "Open the iron rod and use it to measure the thickness of the bowl and the length of two feet. Put aside the iron bar and beat him out. The one from Jiu Yaoxing dared to resist and was immediately repelled. The Jiu Yaoxing stood up and said, "You don't know how to live or die, Bi. Marwin! You committed one of the ten heinous crimes. First you stole peaches, then you stole wine, you disrupted the peach conference, you stole Laojun's elixir, and you stole the royal wine here to enjoy yourself. Don't you know that you are adding more sins to your sins? The great sage smiled and said: "These things are true, they are true!" But what about you now? "Jiu Yao Xing said: "I follow the Jade Emperor's golden decree, and the commanders are here to accept you and surrender. Please convert as soon as possible to avoid teaching these creatures to accept their fate. Otherwise, the mountain will be leveled and the cave will be overturned! The great sage said angrily: "How powerful are you, these hairy gods, that you dare to talk nonsense?" Don't leave, please give me a stick! "The Nine-Yao Stars were all excited. The Monkey King was not afraid of anything. He raised his golden cudgel, blocked the left and right, and fought the Nine-Yao Stars until they were exhausted. He dragged his weapons backwards one by one, fled in defeat, and rushed into the center. Under the military tent, he said to King Tota: "That Monkey King is very brave! I can't fight him, and I'm defeated. "Li Tianwang immediately mobilized the four heavenly kings and the twenty-eight constellations to fight all the way. The Great Sage was openly unafraid and mobilized the one-legged ghost king, the seventy-two cave demon king and four strong generals, and formed a formation outside the cave door. You It's so amazing to see this melee - Zhai

The cold wind is blowing, and the strange fog is overcast. The flags in the wall are flying, and the helmets and halberds are shining brightly. The rolling helmet reflects the sun, like a silver chime hitting the sky; the layers of armor shine on the rock cliffs, like icebergs pressing down on the ground. The whips are arranged in the forest; the bronze swords, the four bright shovels, the dense trees are arranged; the bows are hard and the arrows are carved; the short sticks and snake spears hold the soul; the great sage turns over and over to fight against the gods. Passing by, tigers and wolves are running around in the mountains. The sky is black, dust is flying, and the universe is dark. I can only hear the soldiers swarming around, shaking the world with their evil power.

This scene has been set up since the beginning of time. , fought until sunset on the west mountain. The one-horned ghost king and the seventy-two cave monsters were all captured by the gods, and the four generals and the monkeys were stopped and hidden deep in the water curtain cave. The great sage used a stick. After resisting the four gods, Li Tuota and Prince Nezha, they were all in mid-air and had been killing for a long time. When the great sage saw that it was getting late, he plucked a handful of hairs, threw them into his mouth, chewed them up and sprayed them out, shouting. :"Change! "Thousands of great sages transformed into each other, all wielding golden hoops. They defeated Prince Nezha and defeated five heavenly kings. Ancient

The great sage was victorious, collected his hair, and turned back sharply. At the entrance of the iron bridge, four strong generals led the crowd to greet the Great Sage. They choked and cried three times, and then laughed three times and said, "You have seen me again." Crying and laughing at the same time, why? "The four strong generals said: "This morning the handsome generals fought with the king of heaven, and the demon king of the seventy-two caves and the one-horned ghost king were captured by the gods. We escaped, so we should cry. Seeing that the great sage came back victorious and unharmed, he should laugh. The Great Sage said: "Winning or losing is a common occurrence for military strategists." An ancient saying goes: If you kill ten thousand people, you will lose three thousand people. The leaders captured were tigers, leopards, wolves, badgers, deer, foxes, and the like. None of my kind was injured, so why bother? Even though I used a clone to kill him, he still wanted to camp at the foot of my mountain. I will wait and defend closely, eat well, sleep peacefully, and nourish my spirit. At dawn, I will use my magical power to take revenge on these generals. "The four generals and the monkeys drank a few bowls of coconut wine and slept peacefully. Zhai

The four heavenly kings stopped fighting, and everyone reported their merits: some captured the tiger and leopard, and some captured the lion. Among the elephants, there were those who caught wolves, insects, foxes, and not even a monkey spirit. At that time, Guo set up his camp again and went down to the stronghold. He rewarded the generals who had made great contributions and ordered the soldiers of the heaven and earth net to raise their bells. With a shout, Huaguo Mountain is surrounded, waiting for the battle tomorrow morning. Everyone is ordered to be careful everywhere. This is exactly what happens after the monster monkey makes chaos, and sets up nets day and night to see how to deal with it after dawn. Back to decomposition.
