Journey to the West: The Ninth Life

The ten-thousand-year plan was destroyed in one fell swoop, and Tathagata was burned with anger almost instantly, burning away all reason.

His fists were crunching, and his eyes became more and more cold and crazy.

Looking up, he glanced at the seven-color light that was gradually dimming. He took a deep breath, moved his neck, and finally his eyes fell on Monkey King who was holding Tang Xuanzang's body and remained motionless for a long time.

"You ruined my good work."

"Now Tang Xuanzang is dead."

"Are you in pain?" Tathagata bent down, his voice was cold and unpredictable, and with a sense of revenge, he smiled coldly, closed his eyes and closed his eyes.

Curse.

This time, Tathagata activated the Tightening Mantra at an unprecedented speed. Correspondingly, the pain Sun Wukong endured also multiplied.

poof-

Sun Wukong had a painful expression on his face, and he vomited out a mouthful of blood abruptly.

But even if his veins were bulging, his whole body was convulsed and trembling with pain, and Tang Xuanzang's hands were embraced, he was extremely stable from beginning to end.

The pain made the teeth chatter together.

I was in a cold sweat from the pain.

It hurts so much that life is worse than death.

His expression was calm, and his eyes were like a dead pool of stagnant water, without the slightest ripple.

His muscles were trembling and trembling, even his soul was twitching and aching, but he bent down, found a clean place without blood, and gently placed the person in his arms on the ground.

Sun Wukong looked at Tang Xuanzang who closed his eyes and smiled.

He opened his mouth, but did not make a sound, but blood and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, which was shocking and terrifying.

"A curse..."

Sun Wukong closed his eyes, and a long, long time ago, Tang Xuanzang walked into the blacksmith holding the only coil, pursed his lips, and came out with a fake gold hoop in his mind.

He said to make his own armor.

Sun Wukong wanted to laugh.

In fact, so many times, how painful is it to chant the mantra, how painful can it be?How could Sun Wukong, the majestic Monkey King, be defeated by a mere golden hoop?

Actually in this world.

Besides him, who else can defeat him?

Monkey King laughed loudly, he felt the pain from his body and even his soul, and laughed loudly.

The curse is the number one torture in the world, and the victim is like falling into a boundless purgatory, suffering endless torture.

He raised his hand and gently stroked Tang Xuanzang's still warm face, his eyes were tranced and smiling, he wanted to wake him up and tell him.

Lose him.

It hurts more than this so-called tight spell.

Swallowing heart and bone, the pain is too much to live.

Really, it hurts, it hurts.

Sun Wukong took a breath and stood up gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing Tang Xuanzang's sleep.

His eyes glanced at the seven-color light containing Mahayana Dharma not far away, and then at the distorted face of Tathagata who was ferocious due to anger, and finally slowly retracted his gaze.

Raising his hand, he touched the gold hoop that had been worn for a long time on his head.

Hard.

That action was to directly remove the golden hoop from his head?

Seeing it in the eyes of the Tathagata, he laughed, almost a contemptuous ridicule.

"Sun Wukong, do you think you can take off the golden hoop? Without my spell, your life—"

Before he finished speaking, Tathagata moved stiffly and looked at Monkey King in disbelief.

The golden hoop binds the body and binds the soul.

But Sun Wukong actually endured the tugging of his body and soul, and abruptly took off the golden hoop from his head.

The scalp was lifted up by the golden hoop, bloody and bloody, a handsome and handsome face with deep edges and corners, at this moment, has been covered by bloodstains flowing down the scalp, flesh and blood turned out, and terrible wounds.

Like a demon born from hell.

Large chunks of scalp still adhered to the golden hoop.

Monkey King didn't take another look, as if he didn't feel any pain at all, he casually threw the famous things in the three realms on the ground at his feet.

He turned around and his eyes fell on Tang Xuanzang.

His pitch-black eyes seemed to have finally gained some warmth, and he slightly curled his lips, as if staring at the most precious treasure in the world.

"Fool."

"Didn't you always want to go to Huaguo Mountain?"

Sun Wukong's voice was very soft and gentle, and the cave was very quiet, except for his voice, only the sound of blood ticking, ticking, dripping on the ground could be heard.

He said that I will take you to Huaguo Mountain now, accompany you to see Shuilian Cave, and accompany you to watch the sunset, okay?

Hold Tang Xuanzang and go out.

From the beginning to the end, it was as if he completely regarded the Tathagata as air, turning a blind eye.

Walking to the gate of the cave, that step has not been taken yet.

Tathagata's sinister voice sounded behind him.

"Sun Wukong, do you think I will let you leave just like that?"

Sun Wukong paused slightly.

He closed his eyes slightly and exhaled lightly.

500 years ago, Jiang Liu'er died in front of him. He was angry and in pain, so he killed Nantianmen with a stick and made a second disturbance in Tiangong to avenge him.

500 years later, Tang Xuanzang died in his arms again, as he did 500 years ago.

The heart in his chest seemed to be dead.

Feel no pain, feel no anger.

There is nothing worse than death.

The voice was cold and desolate, without any emotion.

"Tathagata, I want to take Tang Xuanzang back to Mount Huaguo."

"Don't stop me."

"Don't want to stop you? Hahahaha, Tang Xuanzang is dead, you should die here with him too!"

Before he finished speaking, without giving Sun Wukong any time to prepare, he pointed at his heart and slapped him fiercely!

Monkey King turned around and raised his golden cudgel to meet him.

His eyes were calm and unmoved.

This time.

How could he be afraid of Tathagata after he took off the golden hoop?

When the golden cudgel met the Tathagata's palm and firmly gained the upper hand, Monkey King was a little dazed. He was distracted during the battle, lowered his head, and looked into his arms to be firmly hugged by him without being affected at all. A monk involved.

If only just now.

He can defeat Tathagata effortlessly like now, will all the endings be different?

It's too late, everything, it's too late.

bang-

The golden cudgel shattered Tathagata's mana shield with one blow, and knocked his whole body into the air, and then fell with a sound, dust flying.

Tathagata wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and was about to stand up, but the next second, he noticed that the blood dripping from Monkey King's feet mixed with the blood on Tang Xuanzang's sleeve, forming a trickle, flowing down The gully on the ground flowed all the way to the foot of the black mountain.

The colorful light shines brightly.

Tathagata is overjoyed.

He laughed loudly, staring wildly at Monkey King, feeling the shock on the ground, and said loudly: "Heaven will help me!"

"It's really God helping me, hahahaha."

"Did you see it? Mahayana Buddhism is about to be born, and Mahayana Buddhism is about to be born!"

"As soon as it was born, who in the world is still my opponent? Hahaha, hahahaha!"

The ground shook, and the black rocks began to make rumbling sounds.

Sun Wukong didn't listen to Tathagata's words, hugged Tang Xuanzang's body, and his eyes finally fell on the seven-color light group that became more and more radiant in the middle of the black mountain.

Mahayana Buddhism.

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

"What is there to go to the old Tathagata's land?"

"I heard that there is the legendary Mahayana Buddhism there. If you can find it, you can spread the Buddhadharma and save all living beings."

.. ......

.. ......

"Are you from the Eastern Land Tang Dynasty who went to the Western Paradise to learn Buddhist scriptures?"

"Exactly, why do you..."

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

.. ......

.. ......

Mahayana Buddhism, Tang Xuanzang, a fool, has been asking for ten lives, but he can't ask for something.

When Tang Xuanzang mentioned Mahayana Buddhism, his eyes were pious and determined, and Monkey King couldn't help laughing, but his eyes became more trance.

He lowered his head, and his eyes fell on Tang Xuanzang's face with his eyes closed.

"If you want it, the Great Sage will bring it for you, okay?"

At this moment, Tathagata has fallen into madness.

Just imagine.

He painstakingly planned for tens of thousands of years, and waited for another 1000 years. Before witnessing the death of Tang Xuanzang, all hopes were shattered. At this moment, he saw Mahayana Buddhism again and was awakened by the blood of Monkey King by coincidence.

How can he not like it?

How not happy!

The only thing he was waiting for was the moment when Mahayana Buddhism was born, and he integrated it into his body.

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

The entire cave was shrouded in seven-color light, which was dazzling, but the light was extremely soft, as if it could cleanse people's hearts, and it was as beautiful as a dream.

Mahayana Buddhism was born.

The entire western sky was shrouded in colorful light.

The Tathagata was overjoyed, laughed loudly, and stretched out his hand to take it into his hands at the moment when Mahayana Buddhism awakened.

The Mahayana Dharma is his now, the Mahayana Dharma is his—

Even before the smile on the corner of his mouth spread, the next second, Tathagata convulsed and burst out countless blood lines, but in an instant, he had already turned into a blood man, which was shocking and terrifying.

"What's going on here? What's on—what's going on?!"

Tathagata tried to reach out to touch the Mahayana Dharma, but before he even stretched out his hand, he was already burned by the seven-colored light in extreme pain, and his muscles were scorched black.

His eyes were tearing apart, he was hysterical, how could he see a trace of the appearance of the Tathagata Buddha, the Lord of the Western Heaven?

"Because your heart is filthy."

Sun Wukong didn't know when he appeared next to Tathagata. He stretched out his hand, took over the seven-color light cluster containing Mahayana Dharma without fear, quietly watched the profound Dharma and patterns within it, and opened his mouth lightly.

"You think that the awakening of Mahayana Buddhism requires sacrifice."

"Maybe what wakes it up is the sincerity."

"The sincerity of people."

"You are talking nonsense, you give me back Mahayana Buddhism, I am the lord of the Western Heaven, I am the lord of the Western Heaven, this thing should belong to me, you give it back to me, give it back to me!"

Tathagata was hysterical and almost reached out to snatch it.

But it doesn't even need Sun Wukong to fight back, just the light emanating from this Mahayana Buddhism is enough to make his life worse than death.

"Why, why is this, ah!"

For Tathagata who was completely insane and collapsed, Monkey King no longer had the slightest patience, and continued to stay here to entangle with him.

What he is holding in his hand is the peerless treasure that countless people covet in this world, in the Three Realms.

What he held in his arms was just an ordinary monk who had cut off all vitality.

But he, as if he didn't notice the contrast at all, held Tang Xuanzang in his arms, as if embracing the most tender dream in his life.

He looked down at him and smiled.

"Look, you have prayed for the Mahayana Dharma for ten lifetimes, and I brought it for you."

"I'll give it to you, just give me a smile, okay?"

While speaking, Monkey King integrated Mahayana Buddhism into Tang Xuanzang's body.

According to this legend, the extremely mysterious and supreme Buddha Dharma was put into Tang Xuanzang's body by him just like this.

The light dissipated.

Mahayana Buddhism disappeared, Tang Xuanzang still fell asleep like that, his body was cold and his vitality was cut off.

Monkey King stood there and waited for a long, long, long time, so long that he even felt that the world was frozen.

Leave Xitian.

Along the way, wherever he went, all the passers-by got out of the way, seeing him like ghosts and demons, they dared not approach him.

Also.

His appearance is really too fierce and terrifying.

The armor was shattered, the body was covered in blood, and the eyes were dark.

Only the movements are gentle, embracing Tang Xuanzang's body.

Step by step, step by step, he walked back to Huaguo Mountain.

"My old grandson can fly you to Daleiyin Temple with a single somersault, why bother to rely on walking?"

"Great Sage—sincerity leads to spirituality. I want to get the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures. Naturally, I have to go step by step and go forward with devotion. You will accompany me through this journey."

One step at a time.

Monkey King walked forward step by step, eyes in a trance.

he was thinking.

It's a long road.

Tang Xuanzang is an annoying guy, he will only get used to him this time, and wait for him to wake up in the next life.

He doesn't care about him anymore.

Yep.

Never, never mind him again.

Cangshan Yangshui, the sun and the moon reincarnation.

On the way back from Daleiyin Temple to Huaguo Mountain, Monkey King had to walk for two years.

"Who are you who dares to trespass on my Huaguo—big...big...big king?"

The moment the monkey monster guarding the mountain knew Sun Wukong, his eyes almost lit up. The moment he called to stop the king, the other monsters in Huaguo Mountain heard it almost instantly, and quickly gathered around Sun Wukong. .

But when he saw Sun Wukong's appearance at this moment, he hesitated and dared not go forward.

The armor is very old.

The red cloak was dragged on the ground, tattered.

The scars on his body had healed long ago, but those eyes, originally black and golden eyes, seemed to be dead at this moment, without the slightest emotion fluctuation.

It's like ten thousand years of black ice.

Biting cold.

"Hurry up and bring the king back to the Water Curtain Cave to recuperate!"

"The king is back! The king is back!"

All of a sudden, Huaguo Mountain was buzzing with people and it was extremely lively. All the people came up to welcome him and surrounded Monkey King.

He glanced at the little demons surrounding him.

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, and then looked away.

"Let's all go back."

"Your Majesty—"

"Your Majesty—"

"Your Majesty—"

The little demons didn't know what they did wrong, so they all hesitated and tried to stop Monkey King.

Before he finished speaking, Monkey King had already lowered his head, and his eyes fell on Tang Xuanzang in his arms.

The voice is flat, and there is no emotion.

"He's afraid of noise, he's still asleep."

"Elder Brother—"

Hearing Sun Wukong's words, the canopy who had been standing behind the crowd choked up almost instantly, clenched his fists, and took a step forward.

His throat was very hoarse. After two years, he and Chang'e waited in Huaguo Mountain for two years.

Monkey King finally came back.

But master...

Hearing the voice of the canopy, Sun Wukong's eyes finally fluctuated a little.

He raised his head, looked at the canopy, and then at Chang'e.

Smiled lightly.

"In a few days, Tang Xuanzang and I will witness your marriage."

Witness ah.

Sun Wukong gently held Tang Xuanzang's icy cold hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

His eyes were a little dazed, and what suddenly recalled in his mind was the appearance of Tang Xuanzang kneeling on the ground, raising his head and saying that he wanted to marry him in the small thatched hut by the lake, on the night when God's punishment came to the world.

"Disciple Tang Xuanzang, today he married Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. From now on, we will live and die together, and we will never lose each other!"

"Disciple Tang Xuanzang, today he married Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. From now on, we will live and die together, and we will never lose each other!"

"Disciple Tang Xuanzang, today he married Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. From now on, we will live and die together, and we will never lose each other!"

The voice was clear, as if it was ringing in my ears right now.

Monkey King wanted to laugh, but with a pop, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Canopy saw it, and was so worried that he wanted to go forward to help, but was stopped by Monkey King with a gesture.

He raised his hand to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth, and shook his head towards the canopy.

He said I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Thousands of people up and down Huaguo Mountain, including Tianpeng Chang'e, stood in place together, watching Monkey King leave step by step with Tang Xuanzang in his arms.

The man's back is broad, but lonely.

The setting sun sprinkled on him like blood.

Canopy stood there and watched like this, suddenly thinking.

Perhaps Tang Xuanzang died.

The Great Sage will never laugh again in his life.

After returning to Huaguo Mountain, Monkey King placed Tang Xuanzang in the Water Curtain Cave on an ice bed made of Wannian Xuanbing to ensure that his body would not rot for thousands of years.

He would sit next to him and talk to him every day, as if he could hear him.

Not long after, he also held a grand wedding ceremony for Tianpeng and Chang'e in Huaguo Mountain, which shocked the three worlds.

The Tathagata fell into a demon, was punished by heaven, and demoted to the human world, and only then could he return to the Western Paradise after suffering the pain of reincarnation for a hundred generations.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, has vaguely become the most supreme existence among the three realms, and this Huaguo Mountain has also begun to become a holy place, and no one, no force dares to provoke it easily.

It seems that everything is moving in a good direction.

But it seems that only the canopy, and only the closest people around Sun Wukong know.

He became more and more silent.

No longer irritable, no longer arrogant, no longer have redundant expressions.

Even when he went to the ice bed to accompany Tang Xuanzang, he began to be silent day by day, silent day by day.

Monkey King is immortal and has boundless mana.

Eternal life with no end in sight.

Tianpeng also wanted to speak out to persuade him, but before he could say anything, he was stopped by Monkey King. Up to now, Tianpeng still remembers the expression on the face of Monkey King who said those words to him. what does it look like.

"Tang Xuanzang will not die, he just fell asleep."

"I integrated Mahayana Buddhism into his body, how could he die?"

"He is timid and afraid of the dark. As long as I stay with him, he will wake up eventually."

The man's voice was calm, so calm that there was no slightest ups and downs, as if this simple sentence, understated, could cover up this aimless, even endless waiting.

perhaps.

The Great Sage does not need anyone's enlightenment at all.

In a blink of an eye, 500 years have passed.

How long is 500 years?

The dynasties in the mortal world have changed several masters, and the world has changed its appearance several times.

The little monsters in Huaguo Mountain have all grown into big monsters in their own right.

Chang'e gave birth to two children for the canopy.

The only thing that remains the same seems to be the owner of Huaguo Mountain and Tang Xuanzang who has been lying on the ice bed for 500 years.

this day.

It is the day when Tianpeng married Chang'e's eldest son.

What he likes is the Xuannv who is nine days away. To others, it should be punished by heaven and calamity, but because he is the descendant of Marshal Tianpeng and the godson of Monkey King, the Monkey King, so everything Everything has become extremely simple.

They were in love with each other, so they worshiped each other and got married.

The location of the wedding, as it should be, is Huaguoshan.

Decorated with lanterns and festoons, beating gongs and drums, it was very lively.

The Huaguo Mountain, which was originally full of fairy spirit and beautiful, became warm and amiable because of this happy event.

Canopy and Chang'e sat on the high platform holding hands. The appearance of the two of them has not changed much, but the eyes are a little more vicissitudes.

There was happiness and joy in their eyes, watching a couple of newlyweds in wedding gowns walking towards them, they were all satisfied and at ease in their hearts.

This time, it was still Monkey King who witnessed the marriage.

To be honest, in the past 500 years, few people have been able to invite Monkey King to come forward.

He seemed to have disappeared into this world, without a sound and without waves.

If Tianpeng hadn't spoken in person this time, Sun Wukong would not have appeared in front of everyone for a long time.

He sat on a high podium, watching the two young and joyful couples walking towards him step by step.

Sun Wukong's eyes were in a trance, and for a while, he was actually distracted.

500 years.

In the past 500 years, he did not know how many times he remembered how he and Tang Xuanzang got married at the church.

I don't know how many times I saw that handsome face in my memory.

"The king has lost his mind again."

The monkey demon who had been waiting outside the Water Curtain Cave below saw it, couldn't help feeling a little sore in his throat, sighed, and spoke in a low voice.

"I don't know why, it's been 500 years... Our king looks so lonely, let us be his subordinates, I feel sore and flustered when I look at it."

"do not talk."

Another monkey monster quietly raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears, "You don't understand."

"Today is a day of great joy, and we must be happy too!"

Worship heaven and earth, parents, husband and wife.

After the completion of the ceremony, there was a wedding banquet, and all the people who came to Huaguo Mountain to congratulate were gods and demons who held great power in the Three Realms, but all of them drank drunk and reeked of alcohol.

The night is already deep.

Most of the guests were drunk, and were supported by the attendants to rest.

The wine jars were scattered all over the ground in a mess, and even the air was filled with a strong alcohol smell that could not go away.

Holding a jar of wine in his hand, Monkey King sat on the edge of the cliff, leaning against the stone, not knowing what he was thinking.

Looking at the wine jars piled up under his feet, it is not difficult to figure out how much he drank alone that night.

Smelly of alcohol.

But his eyes are clear.

He wasn't drunk.

How sad is it to feel like you can't get drunk after drinking so much wine?

Sun Wukong raised his head and gulped down a big gulp. He opened his mouth to laugh, but his mind was in a trance, but a very familiar voice sounded.

"My lord, monks are not allowed to drink alcohol."

"My lord, you're secretly drinking again!"

"Great Sage, you promise me that you will never drink secretly from now on!"

"Tang Xuanzang, you are so noisy."

Sun Wukong lowered his head, his voice was a little hoarse.

His eye sockets were filled with bloodshot eyes, he held the wine jar, smiled softly, and spoke silently.

Tang Xuanzang, you are so noisy.

500 years.

He has not heard that annoying stupid monk for 500 years, and he got up to say a word to him again.

around here.

Being quiet made him feel like he was dead.

"My lord, you're secretly drinking behind my back again."

In the valley, there are cicadas chirping, birds chirping, and even the wind can be heard.

Suddenly this voice sounded.

With trembling, crying, and the familiar tone that Sun Wukong has missed for 500 years.

He said, Great Sage, you are drinking secretly behind my back.

His back was stiff, and all the blood in his body rushed to his brain.

Monkey King's hand holding the wine jar froze for an instant, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

He stood up slowly, stood up slowly, and turned his head slowly, his movements were light, as if he was afraid that if he moved too much, he would disturb this hard-won dream for life.

All in white.

The face is clear and gentle.

His eyes were red, like tears.

A pair of eyes contains all the emotions, spanning the long time of 500 years and countless days and nights.

He looked at him and smiled.

He said, great sage, I'm back.
