34th back to the city of Pongseon County to pray for rain and save people
Tang Monk and his disciples had a good meal, said goodbye to the woodcutter and his son, and went down the hidden mist Mountain. After they had walked for a few days, they came to a town, where they saw a desolate scene. There were many soldiers lined up on the left and right at the entrance of the street, and a few men who looked like officials were standing under the eaves, but they did not give way when they came.
Tang monk asked an official to know that here is the Fengxian county of Tianzhu, because of successive years of drought, they were ordered by the county Hou to post the list here, asking for the master to save the country. The Tang Monk read the list and said, "Students, who will ask for rain, ask for a rain for them." Wukong said, "What's so hard to ask for rain?"
The officials heard Wukong say this, and quickly went to report the county marquis. County Hou immediately put on his clothes, came to the street, saw Tang Seng and other people on worship, said: "Please live Buddha great compassion, save our people!" He invited Tang monks and apprentices to his house. Tang Seng agreed, and they went to the county marquis house.
The magistrate of the county provided a feast for them. After eating, Wukong and Bajie, Sha sang stood under the hall, Wukong read a few words, immediately, just to the east of a dark cloud fell in front of the hall, the East Sea old dragon king Ao Guang turned into a human, to Wukong, and told Wukong, rain is easy, but must have the royal decree of God. Wukong had to let the old dragon King go back to the East Sea first.
Wukong jumped in front of the Tang monk and told him about the situation just now. Then a somersault cloud came to the temple of the Spirit and begged the Jade Emperor to order rain. The Jade Emperor said, "Three years ago, the county magistrate of Fengxian County knocked down the vegetarian food for the dogs, and I made three vows in the incense hall, and you took Wukong to have a look."
The four heavenly masters took Wukong to the temple of Incense, where he saw a rice mountain ten feet high and a chicken slowly pecking at it. A twenty - foot high noodle mountain, a pug slowly licking; From the iron frame hung a golden lock, and beneath it was a lamp, and the flame burned the thick-fingered chain. Goku did not know what it meant.
The Heavenly Master told Wukong that the Jade Emperor would wait until the chicken had pecked the rice Mountain, the dog had added the face mountain, and the lamp flame had burned the chain before it would rain on Fengxian County. But he also told Wukong that if he did something charitable and alerted heaven, the mountain of rice and noodles would immediately fall and the chain would be broken.
Wukong returned to the lower realms, and the county officials and officials of all sizes came to meet him. Wukong asked the county Hou three years ago to push down the vegetarian vegetarian offer, the county Hou said that with his wife quarrel, inadvertently pushed down the offer table. Wukong told him the three things that the Jade Emperor had decreed and said, "If you set your heart on doing good, recite the Buddha and read the Sutra in the morning and evening, and move heaven, it will rain."
When the county magistrate heard this, he swore to the Buddha with one heart, immediately summoned the local monks and began to build the dojo. The county marquis led the civil and military officials to burn incense and worship the Buddha every day. At the same time, it also sent out flying reports, ordering everyone in the city and outside the city, regardless of men and women, old and young, to burn incense and worship Buddha.
Wukong jumped up to the clouds again to ask the Jade Emperor for rain. The Jade Emperor asked people to go to the temple of incense, and the two mountains it stood on fell down and the chains were broken. At this time, Fengxian County land God, town God, community God to worship, said Fengxian County all people burn incense every day to worship Buddha, one heart to good, the Jade Emperor listened to very happy, busy ordered rain.
Sun Wukong immediately and Deng, Xin, Zhang, Tao four gods together to the Fengxian county border, in mid-air practice rain. It rained all day, more than three feet deep. Sun Wukong and let the gods appear in mid-air, let Fengxian County people see. After seeing the county marquis, the people in the county were summoned to worship the gods. It was an hour before the gods returned.
Sun Wukong landed at the head of the cloud, returned to the county hall and said to Master, "Now that the rain is over and the people are stable, we can go." When the county officials saw that they could not stay, they gathered all the officials of the county, played the drums loudly and displayed various flags, and sent them away for more than 30 miles, but they were reluctant to part. Finally, I still reluctantly watched them leave, until I could not see the figure before returning to the county city.
