[Journey to the West] Monkey, be good

I don't know what I am, where I came from, and where I'm going.

I seem to come from the sky and come down from the ground; I have met distant mountains and clear seas.

It seems that I am just a transparent drop of water, like the rain in the morning, following the wind, following the clouds, wandering to every corner of the world, and have heard every story in the world.

Until one day, by accident or not, I met such a person.

I have seen the most beautiful scenery in the world, but I have never seen a more beautiful person than him.Dressed in red, with blond hair and golden eyes, the corners of the mouth slightly turned up always have a bit of distressing loneliness.

His eyes seem to be more wandering than mine, I don't know what he is looking for.But he seems to have been looking for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, or longer.

I saw a bloody ring on the fourth finger of his left hand, with a bright red silk thread wrapped around it.When I was wandering, I didn't know who I heard by chance that the meridian of the fourth finger of my left hand was connected to the heart, and it was the most painful and tender there.Come to think of it, what the man in red is looking for is his beloved.

It was late autumn at that time, and there was a cold wind blowing on the street.I saw the man in red dwarf into a wonton shop by the side of the road, so I floated in too.At this time, I heard the owner of the wonton stall say: "Hey, why is it snowing?"

Snow?I lowered my head in a daze, not knowing when I was completely white and turned into ice crystals—even if it was an ice crystal, I was the most crystal clear and the most beautiful ice crystal—it wasn’t because I was overconfident, but when the man turned his head, I heard from him The suddenly sharpened eyes saw his own reflection, shining brightly, like three thousand lights.At this time, my heart seemed to be hit by something, rushed out of my body, and slammed into his eyes.

"My lord, please sit down, what do you want to eat?" The boss enthusiastically cleared out a clean seat and invited him to take a seat.

The man raised his hand and shook me lightly, holding me in his palm.I thought he was going to crush me and melt me ​​with this blow, but I never thought that his palms are cold and firm, and they are extremely light, so they are actually very comfortable to nest. "A bowl of three fresh wontons."

He said and took his seat.Because the weather was too cold, there were not many customers in the shop, and a few more left after a while, and soon he was the only one left.

The stove was burning hot, the hot water in the pot was boiling, and the boss put a plate of wontons into the pot.The man opened his hands while waiting for the wonton, his golden eyes stared at me for a moment, and the fatigue just now was replaced by a faint smile.

Not long after, an old man with white beard and silver hair appeared out of thin air.He cupped his hands and said to the man respectfully: "Great Sage, why did you call the little god here?"

The man never took his eyes off me, and said flatly: "Si Ming, the Jade Emperor sent you to be responsible for Cheng Xianyuan Jun's calamity, is that how you are responsible?"

Siming said, "What does the Great Sage mean?"

The man glanced at him, said indifferently: "Think for yourself."

Si Ming was stunned, and hurriedly lowered his head and said in great fear: "The Great Sage forgives the sin. The Jade Emperor did indeed order the little god to be responsible for the tenth life of the Yuanjun. But it is definitely not the little god who decided to turn Yuanjun into an autumn dew. It's—it's—"

The man stroked me gently with his fingertips, and said softly, "Huh?"

Si Ming Xingjun lowered his head even more, and said: "Everything in this world is the process from 'nothing' to 'existence', from 'death' to 'life'. This is the first life of Yuanjun, and it should be born from ignorance. , the senseless, lifeless autumn dew rises."

The man said "Oh?" and asked again, "In that case, when will he come back?"

Si Ming said: "I don't know what the Great Sage means by 'return'...? If you are asking when Lord Yuan will be able to return to heaven, naturally you have to wait for him to complete his ten lifetimes. But if you are asking when he will be able to To be reincarnated as an adult, it depends on the merits and virtues that Lord Yuan has accumulated over the years. When you have accumulated enough merits, you will naturally be able to be a human being."

"Accumulate merit." The man lowered his eyes, silently not knowing what to think.

At this time, a spark fell out of the furnace and landed on the tip of a small dog's tail, causing it to howl in pain.

Just a gust of autumn wind blew into the shop, and I didn't think much about it, I immediately jumped up with the wind, pounced on its tail, turned it into a drop of dew, and extinguished the little spark.The dew was heated and evaporated, and I saw a puff of green smoke, and in the blink of an eye, I disappeared.

At the end, I heard Si Ming Xingjun said dumbfounded: "Is this okay?"

The man in red smiled and said, "Saving a dog's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Why not?"
