(Snail Watch Journey to the West No. 6048)

The biggest obstacle on the way to the scriptures is the yokai, these yokai want to eat Tang monk meat, but also want to live forever, according to the rules here, as long as the monkey brothers find the master of the yokai or kill the yokai, they can pass the pass, but there are exceptions in the sutra, and they can only survive by eating.
Sun Wukong is already familiar with dealing with youkai, especially after he knows that these yokai are the mounts of the gods, coupled with the cooperation of the land and the eight precepts of the pig, Brother Monkey gradually grasps the yokai, and his speed of finding the yokai master is becoming more and more skilled. When there are yokai, they can just find their master, so what should they do when there is no yokai to stop them?
At this time, the eight precepts of the pig came in handy, and the old pig never thought that one day he could eat the level when he ate, and the pattern was opened at once.
The Eight Precepts of the Pig had not eaten enough on the way to take the scriptures, before he was a long-term worker in Gao Laozhuang, Gao Taigong did not treat him badly, several large pots of steamed bread were eaten casually, a few pounds of rice were eaten openly, but after taking the scriptures, this specification was constantly shrinking, the Tang monks did not have much entanglement in their hands, they had no funds to buy grain, and they worked hard to find the people to make friends, and it was only enough for the master to eat, where did he dare to rob.
After Sun Wukong and the Eight Commandments beat the python spirit of the Seven Absolute Mountains to death, they came to the fellow villagers with the booty to report the good news, victory is ahead, they can escape after walking out of the Seven Absolute Mountains, but another problem is in front of them, there is a persimmon forest on their only way.
The persimmon forest of the Seven Absolute Mountains is a little different, the persimmons here can not be picked and eaten casually, because you have not been close to smell a bad smell, the smell of the sky makes them unbearable, the persimmons here are not temporary and a half, but accumulated over the years, the persimmons in the persimmon forest have not been picked, after the wind and rain, these persimmons have fallen to the ground, and then slowly rotted, here is a bit remote, so no one cleans up, but also developed into the current appearance. Therefore, there is only one way in front of tang monks, clean up the persimmon forest, and then they can continue to travel west, so that the place that has rotted and deteriorated, no one is willing to clean up, Tang monks they have to save themselves, Sun Wukong has seventy-two changes, but he is also a monkey who loves cleanliness, he is not willing to clean up here.
The work that the master brother is not willing to do can only be toppled by the second master brother, the prototype of the eight precepts of the pig is a pig, as long as he changes back to clean up this place where dirt and filth are hidden, and it is also conditional to want the eight precepts to work, Sun Wukong knows this very well, he promised that the second master brother will definitely help him remember the great merits, and the eight precepts will only start to nibble on these rotten persimmons after the eight precepts are ordered.
Therefore, Guanyin recruitment is not for no reason, I am born to be useful, and the Eight Precepts of the Pig are still very useful.
