Journey to the West: The Ninth Life

"Monkey King, it's been 500 years, do you realize your mistakes?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva sat on the lotus platform, holding a clean bottle, surrounded by auspicious clouds, condescendingly looking down at Monkey King who was pinned down under the Five Elements Mountain, and a trace of compassion flashed in his eyes.

Hearing the voice, Monkey King was in a daze for a moment.

This Five Elements Mountain has been too long, and no one has been here.

In the beginning, there were monsters and gods who came all the way to humiliate him in order to see his desolate appearance.

In the end, not only the monsters and gods felt bored, but even the villagers living at the bottom of the mountain didn't dare to approach it at all because there was a heinous big devil crushed here.

Sun Wukong almost forgot how long it had been since no one had spoken a word to him.

Looking up to see Guanyin Bodhisattva, Monkey King stretched out his hand and pulled things like spider webs and branches in front of him, his eyes were vicissitudes, but he thought it was funny, he raised his thin lips and sneered, and he went up to Guanyin without hesitation Sight.

"Then you tell me, I should know what I did wrong and what I regretted."

Because he hasn't spoken for a long time, his voice seems to have been ground on sandpaper, with some indescribable vicissitudes, but the expression on Sun Wukong's face is very calm, even a little lazy, and the contradictions are extremely mixed. At the same time, it actually created an indescribable pressure on the aloof Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"You made troubles in the Heavenly Palace twice, killed countless heavenly soldiers and generals, and even held the Jade Emperor hostage in an attempt to destroy the heavens and the earth. Isn't this wrong? Shouldn't you regret it?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva's voice gradually became more serious, staring into Sun Wukong's eyes and saying, "If it weren't for the mercy of the Buddha, you should have been thrown into the endless hell as early as 500 years ago, and you will never be reborn forever."

It was as if he didn't hear what Guanyin Bodhisattva said.

Sun Wukong raised his head slightly, looking at the sunny blue sky above his head, he did not look at Guanyin Bodhisattva, as if he was talking to himself.

He asked, where is Jiang Liuer?

"I was arrested without a fight and was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years. What should the Tathagata do for me?"

"Jin Chanzi was reincarnated as early as 20 years ago, and now he has embarked on the path of learning from the Western Paradise."

Before Avalokitesvara finished speaking, Sun Wukong's eyes narrowed suddenly, vaguely dangerous, staring at Avalokitesvara's face closely, even though he is now being pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, unable to move, in a dire situation, belonging to Monkey King The coercion never faded away.

"Jiang Liuer is Jiang Liuer, what do you mean by Jin Chanzi?"

"Jiang Liu'er was originally the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi. You already knew it, so why bother sticking to one name?" Guanyin sighed.

However, Monkey King sneered, "He will always be Jiang Liuer, not some golden cicada."

"But he doesn't remember you anymore." Avalokitesvara looked down at Sun Wukong, and said lightly, as if to say whether the weather is good today, but what he said made the great sage Qitian who looked down at the world look down for a moment. Red, changed face.

"What did you say?"

"Jin Chanzi's tenth reincarnation, the memory of the previous life has disappeared, and I came here this time to pass on a message for the Buddha, asking you to protect him on his journey westward to learn scriptures and be his apprentice."

Sun Wukong laughed.

"Old Tathagata is very calculating, really calculating, he suppressed me for 500 years, but erased Jiang Liu'er's memory, and now he still uses him to restrain me!"

Seeing Monkey King's appearance, Guanyin frowned imperceptibly.

This monstrous monkey is stubborn by nature, if he refuses to follow Tathagata Buddha's arrangements, even she may not be able to convince him.

When Guanyin was thinking about what to do, Monkey King's expression quickly calmed down.

He said yes.

He said that he was just learning scriptures from the Western Paradise, whether it was Jin Chanzi or Jiang Liuer, I just went.

He smiled slightly and looked at the sky, as if looking at a person through the clouds, with focused eyes.

"Great Sage, Great Sage, will you accompany me to the Western Paradise to learn Buddhist scriptures?"

In the distant memory, a noisy and haunting voice kept ringing in his ears, as if it didn't achieve its purpose, and it would always make him uneasy.

"Don't go."

"Great Sage, if you accompany me, I won't have to be afraid of those demons!"

"Is there anything good to go to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss in the Tathagata old man? Don't go."

"Great Sage, just go with me, come with me."

"Jiang Liuer, you are really getting more and more annoying."

"Hey, Dasheng, if you don't say anything, you will take it as if you agreed, Dasheng, Dasheng, you are so kind, you are the best and best person in the world."

Shaking his head gently.

Being pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, Sun Wukong's eyes were unexpectedly soft, with a little bit of vicissitudes, and he sighed imperceptibly.

500 years.

Jiang Liuer, you idiot.

It's actually going to bother me all the way again.

"Sun Wukong, if you don't want to break Jin Chanzi's fate and cause him to fail in his hard work in ten lifetimes, then don't try to awaken his memory of his previous life."

The voice of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva resounded in the sky, Sun Wukong's eyes suddenly darkened, and he raised his head to look at Avalokitesvara, "What do you mean by that?"

"You made a big fuss in the sky 500 years ago. In the final analysis, it was to avenge Jiang Liu'er. There are definite rules in the world, and part of the karma will naturally be borne by Jiang Liu'er."

"He is the second disciple of the Buddha, and the memory of the previous life was erased by the Buddha himself, and the karma was offset, so he was able to reincarnate smoothly. After the tenth life, he will achieve a positive result. If you forcefully wake up the memory, let him change back to the ninth life. Jiang Liuer, then, all the good fruits he has accumulated before will be wiped out, and Jin Chanzi will fall into hell and be punished by endless purgatory."

"Sun Wukong."

"You have transcended the five elements and the six realms, but Jiang Liu'er has a mortal body."

"Whether it's against the sky to see Jiang Liu'er's death and Taoism disappear with your own eyes, or to protect him all the way westward and obtain the Mahayana scriptures, it's only in your mind."

Avalokitesvara sits high on the lotus platform, her voice is serious, with a little warning.

"In three days, Jin Chanzi will pass by the Five Elements Mountain. What to do at that time is up to you to decide."

From the beginning to the end, Guanyin said so much, but Monkey King remained silent.

Even when he heard that Jiang Liu'er's previous memory was erased, if he was forcibly awakened, he would be punished by heaven, and he kept silent from the beginning to the end.

Until Guanyin was about to leave.

Monkey King suddenly raised his thin lips, and raised his head with a half-smile.

"Buddha."

"Old Tathagata uses heaven and earth as a chessboard and sentient beings as chess pieces. Isn't he afraid that one day he will lose nothing?"

Avalokitesvara's expression changed suddenly, and she stared at Monkey King closely, "What do you want to do?"

"Don't worry, I don't want to do anything."

A chuckle.

Sun Wukong said casually, "That idiot Jiang Liu'er is a nagging annoying person."

"But he has been with me for a long time, and he always has feelings."

He stared deeply into the eyes of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and said word by word: "I don't care what kind of scheme this old man Tathagata is playing, but, you tell him not to violate my bottom line." As soon as the words were spoken, the aura belonging to Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, rose suddenly. Even if he was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, he was full of energy, and the wind was blowing so that the trees were almost uprooted.

Guanyin's heart trembled suddenly, and she looked at Monkey King, but she didn't know what to say.

500 years.

He has been pressed under this mountain for a full 500 years. He thought that the edges and corners of his body would be a little smoother, and that he would become a little easier to control.

But it never occurred to him that Sun Wukong, Monkey King, not only has not lost half of his arrogance, but because of the 500 years of precipitation, he has become more and more dangerous and unfathomable.

His complexion was unpredictable, Guanyin didn't stay any longer, turned around and flew away from the Five Elements Mountain.

Sun Wukong didn't say anything to stop him, and he didn't even look at the back of Guanyin Bodhisattva as he left.

He didn't know why.

Originally, he was very annoyed by that guy Jiang Liuer, who was pedantic, stupid, stubborn, and chattered all day long.

But in the end.

He turned out to be the one he wanted to protect even when he died.

If that idiot Jiang Liuer found out, he would probably bother him for a few more days?

Wuxing Mountain is very quiet, so quiet that only the wind blowing over can be heard.

I don't know who sighed.

It's just... I'm afraid he won't remember the Great Sage anymore.

That's fine, that's fine.

----

----

The entire mountain shape of the Marble Mountains is like a huge palm.

Because of this, the mountain is extremely steep and difficult to climb.

Tang Xuanzang wiped his sweat, and the white monk robe he was wearing was also hung in tatters during the climbing process. His handsome and elegant face was also dirty at this moment, and he couldn't hide his embarrassment.

According to what the Bodhisattva said, the legendary Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, should be around here.

Xuanzang couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart at this moment.

He looked up at the bright red sun that had just risen in the sky, and a look of anticipation flashed in his eyes. He wondered what this Sun Wukong, who had both reputations and reputations, would look like?

He paused, straightened his robes, pulled the tattered places, and patted the dust on his face, Xuanzang tried to make himself look neater.

vaguely in mind.

He didn't want that Monkey King to see himself in such a mess.

Looking around for a long time, there was still no sign of Sun Wukong, Xuanzang couldn't help but frowned, a little anxious, "The Bodhisattva is talking about this place, could it be that I went wrong?"

Just when I was about to continue walking, I stepped on it, and there was a click——

The sound of a dead branch being trampled off was particularly abrupt and piercing in such a quiet forest.

"You came."

"I've been waiting for a long, long time."

Sun Wukong had fallen asleep in a trance, but was awakened by the sound of a branch breaking. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a young monk in white robes, looking left and right, a little confused.

Exactly the same as it was 500 years ago.

There is no difference even in the movements, expressions and expressions.

There seemed to be a weak, long-simmering emotion in my heart, which was about to surge out almost irresistibly.

The blue veins on Sun Wukong's forehead twitched, he gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, his eye sockets were hot and swollen, and for some reason he wanted to yell at him, but he clenched his fists to hold it back.

"Are you the Monkey King Monkey King who was said to have caused a disturbance in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago?" Xuanzang asked tentatively, standing not far from Monkey King.

buzz-

Hearing Jiang Liu'er asking who he was, Sun Wukong's heart was steaming, surging, and all the entangled emotions, at this moment, seemed to be wiped out by a flood.

He doesn't remember himself.

Forcibly suppressing all emotions, Monkey King raised his head and laughed, "Yes, I am the Monkey King who made a scene in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago!"

To be honest, Sun Wukong's current appearance is really embarrassing to the extreme.

The exposed face was dirty, the hair was tangled together randomly, and there were even things like spider webs on the head. How could one see the majesty in the legend?

But I don't know why.

Although he didn't know why he suddenly laughed miserably, Xuanzang couldn't help but took two steps forward, wanting to get closer to him.

When he reacted, he was already squatting in front of Monkey King.

"What are you doing so close to me?" Sun Wukong frowned slightly, his tone a little displeased.

Xuanzang seemed to have not heard his impatience at all, and stretched out his hand to tear off the spider web on his face like a ghost.

When he finally realized what he was doing, Xuanzang couldn't help but feel that his actions were a bit disrespectful. The young monk who was revered as an eminent monk was actually a little at a loss at this moment.

"Amitabha, the poor monk just saw that your face is a little messy..."

Sun Wukong didn't speak.

Standing in place looking at Jiang Liuer, or Xuanzang, silent, his eyes are bottomless, unable to see emotions.

a long time.

It wasn't until Xuanzang was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet that Monkey King seemed to finally react.

He smiled slightly, his voice a little hoarse.

"Are you an envoy from the Great King of Eastern Land to go to the Western Paradise to learn Buddhist scriptures?"

Xuanzang didn't know why Sun Wukong suddenly mentioned this, so he nodded, "Exactly, why do you..."

Sun Wukong looked at Xuanzang's face and smiled.

A pair of eyes seemed to have been precipitated by countless years, and the vicissitudes of life were beyond words.He exhaled softly, his voice low.

"I am the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, I would like to guarantee you to learn from the scriptures, and be... an apprentice with you."

Things are going unbelievably well.

To be precise, before coming to the Five Elements Mountain, even with the guarantee of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Xuanzang still felt uncontrollable and unspeakably uneasy.

It's not because of Monkey King's tyrannical reputation, but because of a vague feeling in his heart.

A character like him should not be bound by anyone.

Seeing that he was silent, Sun Wukong couldn't tell what kind of complicated feelings he had in his heart, so he smiled softly twice, showing patience that has been rare for hundreds of years.

"What are you thinking?"

Xuanzang was young, with clean and clear eyes, looked at Monkey King, and said sincerely: "The poor monk just thinks that you have been wronged by letting me be my apprentice."

"What a fool." Hearing him say this, for some reason, the turbulent anger in Sun Wukong's heart dissipated a lot, and his face still had the same lazy and unruly look. It was subtly soft. "Don't remember anything and still be so stupid, I'm afraid this is the only one in the world."

Xuanzang was taken aback, "What did you say?"

Sun Wukong waved his hand and looked at Xuanzang impatiently, "Hurry up and break the spell on the Five Elements Mountain. I have been suppressed for 500 years, and my whole body is almost frozen into a rock."

Only then did Xuanzang remember this important matter, and hurriedly went to uncover the talisman again.

Before reaching out to remove the talisman, Fang suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to look at Monkey King again.

"If you don't want to be my apprentice, I can talk to Guanyin Bodhi—"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sun Wukong casually. He seemed to be a little impatient, and urged him with a straight face, "Why are you so wordy? I will guarantee you to learn from the scriptures, but you are wronged." gone?"

"How could it be, poor monk... Poor monk absolutely didn't mean that."

What a fool.

After 500 years, he is still a fool.

While speaking, Tang Xuanzang stretched out his hand and removed the spell on Wuzhi Mountain.

Rumbling--

With a huge sound, the entire Marble Mountains shook instantly, and boulders rolled.

Xuanzang was obviously not aware of this situation at all, and he was stunned in place, watching the huge mountain with a gap in the middle, almost as if the whole world was about to be shattered, it was extremely terrifying.

The soles of the feet are shaking.

The whole mountain is shaking!

Xuanzang couldn't stand still, and before he could react, he saw a huge boulder coming down from the mountain straight in his direction.

The pupils suddenly contracted.

After all, he has no strength to restrain a chicken, his body is mortal, and the speed of the boulder rolling down is almost too late for people to react.

next second.

In the next second, he will be sucked under the boulder and die without a place to bury him.

thump--

thump--

His heart was beating violently, and all the blood in his body rushed to his brain.

Xuanzang stood there in a daze, opened his mouth, deep in his soul seemed to be surging strongly, wanting to call out a name.

"Stand around stupidly waiting to die?"

A voice implying anger and worry descended from the sky, and at lightning speed, it directly took Xuanzang away from the Five Elements Mountain.

Xuanzang stared blankly at the visitor.

Sun Wukong.

There was even rust on the dilapidated armor, half of the phoenix feathers on his head were broken, and a cloak behind him seemed to be stained with blood, dark in color and tattered.

It was obviously so embarrassing.

But I don't know why.

It was very much like the Monkey King as Xuanzang imagined.
