Unknowingly, half a month had passed. Ye Chen, Tang Seng, and his disciples walked into a tall mountain. The mountain stretched for thousands of miles and the end could not be seen. Trees stood tall in the forest, and wild beasts roamed in the mountains. Wild wolves were howling, and tigers were rubbing their palms.
There were also unknown insects crawling around on the trees. During this time, there were also insects clamoring, as if they were telling something. There was a hint of strangeness everywhere in the forest, which made people shudder.
Monkey King asked Tang Seng and the others to walk slowly while he scouted the situation in front and chased away the wolves, tigers, and leopards on the side of the road.
They crossed the mountains and came to a plain. They could see smoke lingering in the distance, and there were faint pavilions inside. From time to time, they could hear the sound of bells and plates being struck.
They followed the sound and walked until they found themselves in front of a temple. They saw crows flying past the temple from time to time, and the surroundings were all very tall trees.
Monkey King took a closer look and found that there was a hint of fierceness in the Zen light. He felt that this must not be a good place. He turned to Tang Seng and said.
Tang Sanzang didn't really believe it because Sun Wukong always exaggerated things. So he rode to the front of the mountain gate and saw the words "Leiyin Temple" written on the wall under the thick branches.
Tang Seng thought that he had arrived in the world of immortals, so he immediately dismounted and wanted to pay his respects.
Monkey King said, "Master, open your eyes and take a good look at where we are and what is written on the wall."
Tang Seng calmed down and waved his hands. There was a flash of light, and the leaves covering the wall were cut down. Tang Seng then saw what was written on the wall. It turned out that it was "Small Leiyin Temple".
Tang Seng still wanted to go in and pay his respects, but Monkey King still tried to dissuade him, saying, "Master, you can't. Look at the dead atmosphere here. It's definitely not what a temple should look like."
"Master, there must be something strange in here. If we go in, we will be in danger, Master."
However, Tang Seng insisted that it was not a big deal to go in and pay respects.
Just as the two of them were arguing over this, a voice suddenly came from the temple, saying, "Tang Seng, since you came from the Tang of the East to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, why didn't you come in to worship our Buddha when you saw him?"
Hearing this, Tang Seng turned pale with fright. He quickly changed into his kasaya and put on his monk hat. After dressing up, he brought the Monkey King, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sha into the temple to pay their respects, while Ye Chen stayed outside to check out the situation.
Tang Seng, Zhu Bajie, and Sand Monk all walked into the hall step by step while the Monkey King did not take it seriously. He stood in the hall in a daze and did not kneel down.
When Tang Seng saw how frivolous Monkey King was, he reached out and tugged at the monkey King's clothes, hoping that the monkey King would kneel down and worship him. However, the Monkey King still did not move.
At this time, he suddenly heard Gautama Buddha, who was sitting high on the lotus platform, say, "Monkey King, why don't you worship Buddha when you see him?"
The Monkey King did not say anything and secretly changed to the Fiery Eyes of Truth. When he opened his eyes, he found that it was a monster sitting on the platform.
The Monkey King was shocked and thought, "Can any monster turn into a Buddha these days? I don't know what this monster is up to. It must be the same as the other demons, coming for Master. "
After thinking, the Monkey King took out the Jingu Bang from his ear and hit the monster without saying a word.
Suddenly, something strange happened. A cymbal fell from the sky and opened its mouth, sandwiching the Monkey King in the middle.
Seeing this, Ba Jie and Sand Monk immediately got up to get their weapons. Unexpectedly, all the Buddha statues around them moved and turned into the faces of monsters, baring their teeth.
They surrounded them all at once. Ba Jie and Monk Sha were unable to resist them. Thus, Tang Sanzang, Ba Jie, and Monk Sha were all tied up.
