Chapter 442 Find two pairs of strong feet for the elders
Xun Yu said, "It's a long story, and I can't explain it in a few words. It's urgent for the mistress to go to the funeral. The carriage has arrived. The mistress should go first. Anyway, you will be back soon."
Luo Jiu said: "It's hard to say when I will be back. Maybe five, six, seven or eight days, or maybe ten days or half a month. Anyway, give me a name first, maybe I will know it."
Xun Yu said: "This man has been studying behind closed doors for a long time, so the mistress cannot know. His name is Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao."
Luo Jiu nodded and understood. This was the butterfly effect.
Guo Jia is a genius, and his military strategy is far beyond that of ordinary people. In the book, he is a person close to Cao Cao, but he went to Cao Cao because of Xun Yu's recommendation. Now Xun Yu is with Luo Jiu, so he naturally recommends him to Luo Jiu.
"Guo Jia? It sounds like a good name." Luo Jiu quickly brainstormed, "Wen Ruo, I remember that you were born in the Year of the Rabbit. Is Guo Jia born in the Year of the Rat?"
Xun Yu was stunned. "It seems so. Why would the mistress ask such a question?"
Luo Jiu said, "I dreamed yesterday that a rabbit brought a golden rat in its mouth. The golden rat spoke human language and said, "If you use me, I will help you pacify the world." Now that I think about it, this person must be Guo Jia."
Xun Yu: “Ah?”
Luo Jiu: "Let him come, Governor Cheng will make good arrangements."
Luo Jiu took Cheng Yaoyao by the hand and whispered a few words in her ear, then waved goodbye to Xun Yu and left the city.
The four found the woods, returned to the courtyard, rested for a while, and immediately rushed to the Journey to the West world.
Not far from the courtyard, the four saw a monk beside a mountain stream. The monk was holding a bundle, and inside it was a hat inlaid with gold flowers.
Luo Jiu immediately stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, are you Elder Tang from the Eastern Tang?"
Tang Monk stood up quickly and said, "I am honored to meet several female donors. I wonder how you know me?"
The four of them looked at each other, speechless.
Luo Jiu said: "We know your disciple Sun Dasheng, so we know you. May I ask, is this the golden hoop for your disciple?"
Tang Seng was surprised and asked, "How do you know? Even Wukong doesn't know this."
Luo Jiu smiled bitterly, "Don't worry about this for now. Well, you haven't eaten yet, right? We haven't eaten either. Prepare some vegetarian food for Elder Tang, and we can talk while we eat."
Tang Seng already had a disciple who could perform seventy-two transformations and had seen the world, so no one concealed the fact.
Feng Qi simply pulled out a folding picnic table out of thin air, and Fu Bao put out five stools.
Zhong Jialing placed rice, tofu with green onions, stir-fried lettuce, cabbage and radish soup and other vegetarian dishes in front of Tang Seng, while the four of them had a meal of pizza, steamed buns, sugar triangles, cooked meat with marinated sauce, and pickles made by grandma.
Tang Seng was really hungry, so he thanked him and drank half a bowl of carrot soup in one breath.
Everyone had almost finished eating. Zhong Jialing went to the mountain to pick mushrooms, while Fubao and Feng Qi went to pick fruits and hunt together. Only Tang Sanzang and Luo Jiu were left. Luo Jiu said, "It's not that I like to meddle in other people's business, but Master Tang, it's wrong for you to do this."
Tang Seng was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"Think about it, why did you seek the sutra? You did it to save all living beings, right? You believe that Buddhism can make people abandon evil and do good. Your Buddhism has such a great power, why do you still need to use the golden hoop? You have infinite compassion for evil people, why are you so cruel to your own disciples?"
Tang Seng was silent for a moment, "This is the advice of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Besides, I will only recite the Tightening Curse when he does evil."
Luo Jiu rubbed his solar plexus. "It has nothing to do with who suggested it. It's a question of whether the golden hoop is reasonable. Why don't you think about it from his perspective? He was originally a happy little monkey. What's wrong with pursuing freedom?
He is not a wicked person, he never kills innocent people. You put this golden hoop on him for no reason, what is the difference between that and the Five Finger Mountain that has been pressing him down for five hundred years?
He follows you, firstly without salary, secondly without benefits, no welfare benefits, and living in the open air. He wants to take care of you and protect you, but you still want him to obey you unconditionally. Don't you think this is a bit too much?
We live together day and night, and it is normal to have disagreements, different opinions, and different ways of dealing with things. Isn't it good for everyone to fully communicate and listen to each other's opinions? Why must he listen to you? If he doesn't listen to you, he will suffer, be tortured, and live a life worse than death...
Elder Tang, are you really a monk? "
Tang Seng lowered his head in shame, "That's not what I meant..."
Luo Jiu sighed, "Elder Tang, you lead a team, and I also lead a team, so I can pass on some experience to you. If you want others to follow you wholeheartedly, you can't just force it.
The closer the relationship, the more careful care it needs. Friendship, care, respect, trust, patience, communication, and empathy are all indispensable.
You are not perfect, why do you demand perfection from another person?
You are not always right. We all have our own contradictory thoughts. Why do you ask another person to obey you forever? "
Luo Jiu stood up after saying this and said, "I'll keep this thing for you first. Please try to use your compassionate heart to pity your disciple."
"Wait a minute!" Tang Seng hurriedly said, "You... it's useless if you only hold this. You need to use it in conjunction with the Tightening Curse."
Luo Jiu was stunned. "I didn't use it. You don't need it?"
Tang Seng said ashamedly: "You are right, I really can't give him anything. If I only give him this golden hoop, it would be too ironic. Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading, so I will give you this golden hoop. The spell to tighten the hoop is like this, I will tell you..."
Feng Qi and Fu Bao hunted a wild boar and left it in the space. When Zhong Jialing came to find them with a basket of wild mushrooms on her back, the two were sorting out pheasants and rabbits.
Feng Qi held the pheasant in his hand and said, "Call Jiu'er and let's go. Don't waste time talking to that bald donkey."
As a result, Luo Jiu ran over to tell them that Tang Seng had changed his mind and would not force Sun Wukong to wear the golden hoop. He also gave her both the golden hoop and the tight hoop curse.
Feng Qi's eyes lit up, "This young man is teachable, what a saintly monk!"
She walked over with a smile and said, "Well, Elder, we came here in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. I'll save these two chickens for you to eat on the way."
Luo Jiu quickly stopped him, "I don't eat meat."
Feng Qi touched his nose in embarrassment. Luo Jiu said, "Leave some daily necessities for me, Elder Tang. You must have had a hard time on this journey. I see your shoes are torn. Jialing, find two pairs of Zulijian shoes for the elder."
They left behind two pairs of shoes and two down jackets. Fubao also took out a package wrapped with tape and said, "This is for the Great Sage. Elder, please pass it on for me and remind him not to forget what he promised me before. Please give it to him. I will ask him next time we meet."
Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said, "Don't worry, little donor, I will never be greedy."
As the four were about to leave, Luo Jiu suddenly remembered something, "Holy Monk, you are the younger brother of the Tang King. Can you do me a favor? Please help me write a letter to the Tang King."
Luo Jiu took out a pen and paper, and Feng Qi whispered in her ear: "Why did you ask him to write a letter to the King of Tang? Do you want to take a photo with Li Shimin's autograph?"
Luo Jiu smiled and glanced at her, "It has its own magical uses, you will know when the time comes."
