Journey to the West: Beginning with the Apprenticeship of Bodhi Patriarch

Chapter 31 Dahui's Death and Disappearance
The next day, Jiang Tong'er was meditating and resting when he was suddenly called by the master. He did not dare to delay and just walked out of the room and went to the master's meditation room.

"Master, here comes the disciple!"

Jiang Yuan waited for the master.

Not long after, a gust of wind blew, the door of the room opened, and the master was seen sitting on a cushion.

The master said, "The boy, go inside and talk."

Jiang Yuan heard this, walked into the quiet room, bowed, and asked, "Master."

The Patriarch asked, "Boy, do you remember Dahui?"

Jiang Yuan replied, "Master, Dahui is the second disciple you accepted, one generation younger than me, and a 'Da' generation. How could I have forgotten?"

The twelve words of the Patriarch's teachings are "vast wisdom, the sea of ​​true nature, and brilliant enlightenment."

Now it is the generation with the character "Hui".

He is the only one among the "Guang" generation in the sect. Dahui is the first among the "Da" generation. He practiced a side sect before, and his Taoist merits were complete. He achieved immortality and has gone down the mountain for a long time.

The master raised his hand, pointed outside the cave, and said, "Outside Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, fifty miles east, there is a mountain called 'Evil Wind Mountain'. In the mountain there lives a tiger demon who has cultivated his magical powers since who knows when. He has occupied the mountain and is doing evil. Dahui entered the mountain and met the tiger demon, who died. Boy, you should go there and subdue the demon and teach the people in the mountain to be free of evil."

Jiang Yuan sighed in his heart. After all, Dahui was his junior fellow apprentice. He never expected that he would die and his Taoism would be destroyed. It was indeed true that one could not obtain the true Taoism through a side door.

He bowed and said, "Master, I will be back soon and will subdue the demons!"

Say it.

He went out of the Three Stars Immortal Cave.

Now that he has obtained the Monkey King and Jin Gong's services, and with a little magical power at his disposal, why should he be afraid of the tiger demon?

When Jiang Tong'er left the Slanting Moon and Three Stars Cave, he saw the sky was getting brighter in the east. He leaped a hundred feet into the air, trying to fly, heading east to find the Evil Wind Mountain and subdue the evil demon.

After leaving Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, he realized that the area below the mountain had changed. He didn't know when a lot of people had gathered at the foot of the mountain, many of whom were from Jambudvīpa. They must have come here to escape the three disasters that occurred in Jambudvīpa.

In the early years, there were few people near Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

Later, due to the chaos in the Zhou Dynasty, people from Jambu Continent crossed the ocean and came here.

Jiang Yuan took a look and quickly headed towards Evil Wind Mountain.

……

The boy flew up in time for dusk and arrived at the foot of the Evil Wind Mountain. He looked around the mountain and saw many stone pillars and many mangroves covered with red vines. From a distance, the mountain looked like a demon's head, with 'fangs supporting sword blades and red hair messy and fluffy'. It was indeed an evil place.

Jiang Yuan has been training his eyes. Since he obtained the Golden Master, he can look up into the sky and probe into the underworld. However, he has just obtained the Golden Master and has not tried it yet.

However, he caught the demon easily.

Jiang Yuan took a look and found that this mountain was surrounded by black air, which was much darker than that of Yuzhu Mountain. It turned out that there was some secret.

He wanted to go up the mountain, but he suddenly saw an old man in front of him. He looked uneasy and paced back and forth under an old mangrove tree. He walked up to him.

"That dude!"

Jiang Yuan shouted.

The old man was frightened so much that he jumped and fell. He turned around and saw that it was a person. He was relieved and asked, "Why are you frightening me?"

Jiang Yuan stepped forward and said, "Brother, I see that you are uneasy standing here, so I came up to ask you, this mountain is uneasy, brother, why are you here."

The old man looked up and saw that Jiang Yuan had a decent demeanor and did not look like a roadblock. He said, "Why do you call me brother? I am eighty years old. How can you call me that?" Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Brother, don't you know that I am three or four hundred years old this year? If I don't respect you, I should call you brother."

The old man didn't believe it: "You look about eighteen or nineteen, how can you be only three or four hundred miles?"

Jiang Yuan pointed to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain and said, "Brother, you must know that there is a Lingtai Fangcun Mountain here. On the mountain there is a Xieyue Sanxing Cave. In the cave lives an old immortal who is as old as the sky and has high moral character. I have been cultivating with the old immortal and I am now three or four hundred years old."

The old man was awed and terrified when he heard this, and said tremblingly: "I didn't expect that a god would come to see me. I am so rude, so rude!"

After saying this, he pretended to kowtow.

Jiang Yuan supported him and said, "Brother, don't be so polite. I am not a deity, but a cultivator. I came here on the orders of my master to subdue the demons of this mountain. I saw you wandering around, so I asked you a question."

The old man said, "Master, listen to me. I am originally from outside the Evil Wind Mountain. My family lives in Sanligumen Village. I came here to escape the disaster from my hometown, which is across the ocean in Jambudvīpa. The villagers are all victims of the disaster. Recently, we heard that the Evil Wind Mountain monster is fierce and threatening to eat people. The villagers collected a hundred coins to invite a fairy to come and subdue the monster and fight the evil wind. But after one day of entering the mountain, there was no news or sound."

When Jiang Yuan heard this, he immediately knew what was going on. He asked, "Does the immortal you invited have a name?"

The old man said, "That immortal, whose Dharma name is 'Dahui', has great abilities. I invited him to stay in the village for ten days. He didn't eat any grains and just meditated every day. He must be an immortal."

Jiang Yuan said to himself, "As expected, it was Junior Brother Dahui who got into trouble when he entered the mountains."

How come his junior fellow apprentice went to subdue demons? The master had long said that this school of thought is a way of 'resting from food and guarding grains, while practicing sleep and meditation'. One can achieve immortality by not eating grains and by sleeping and practicing meditation.

How could he be good at fighting? If he were really attacked by weapons, he would be turned into meat paste in an instant, let alone fighting against demons. Dahui really shouldn't have done this and lost his life in vain.

He said, "To be honest, brother, Dahui was my junior fellow apprentice. I received orders from my master to kill Dahui. I'm afraid he was killed by a demon."

After hearing this, the old man fell to the ground in fear, exclaiming, "What a terrible monster! What a terrible monster!"

Jiang Yuan supported the old man and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to subdue the demon. The demon in this mountain must not cause trouble again. Don't panic."

The old man said, "Your fellow apprentice has been killed by the monsters in the mountains. How can you be more powerful than them? Even if you are more powerful, you will probably be killed. Master, just leave. When I return, I will ask the villagers to migrate together."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother. I am much more capable than my junior brother. I will definitely subdue the monsters in the mountain. If you don't want to leave, you can wait here and watch me take the monster down the mountain."

Say it.

He jumped up the mountain, which was about 20 to 30 feet high, and he was really light.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan was very capable, the old man kowtowed repeatedly, chanting "Master, please get rid of the demon! Master, please get rid of the demon!"

……

But when Jiang Yuan entered the mountain, he saw gusts of evil wind coming, and he jumped towards the place where the evil spirit was.

When Jiang Tong'er first entered the mountain, he felt that "the cold air was so chilling that it penetrated to the bones, and the fishy wind was so pungent that it pierced his heart". How could the scenery in this mountain be so bad that it was an understatement to call it a bad place.

Jiang Yuan thought to himself, "The monster haunting this mountain is far more powerful than the old wolf monster from Yuzhu Mountain in the past. We should be careful, be careful! Don't fall for this monster's tricks or you'll lose your life and dignity."

He has a monkey mind and Jin Gong, so he has some abilities.

But the monster in this mountain seems to have eaten many people.

He had never met or fought with the enemy, and didn't know how capable the enemy was, so he didn't dare to be careless.

Now he only knew that the monster in this mountain was a mountain tiger, and he knew nothing else.

Jiang Yuan held the Yu Ding, and the Ni Palace was shaken. He called the Yuan Shen to help, and called Jin Gong and Xin Yuan to jump to the place where the evil spirit was...
