[Journey to the West] Monkey, be good

Although this immortal gentleman does not have a knife mouth, but for monkeys, he really has a tofu heart.

I don't know how it happened that day, I ate the fish made by the monkey, listened to a few words of love from him, and let him blow the pillow wind for a long time after returning to the room, and then I was easily fooled She agreed to his proposal to move in with this fairy and sleep in the same bed day and night from now on.

The horizontal and vertical beds are wide enough, and one more person is not in the way.

As for the yard bought by the monkey next door, because he stomped through the wall with one foot, it is very convenient to enter and exit, so it has become a holy place for children to play.The yard has been around for a long time, and there are many weeds in the yard, and no one takes care of it.There are crickets in the grass, and the group of children like to crawl through the hole in the wall and squat in the grass to catch crickets.

It took a few months for Ben Xianjun to realize that although the monkey bought the yard next door, he never planned to live in it at all, otherwise the weeds in the yard would seep into people Why didn't he send someone to clean it up?Perhaps the first thing he was thinking about was to move here with this fairy.

The monkey dug a few peach blossom trees from Huaguo Mountain and planted them in the yard of this fairy.When I remembered this incident, I was lying on a bed under a tree and reading a picture book I bought three months ago.The monkey sat beside him and massaged the back of the fairy.Since the monkey moved here, Ben Xianjun has been suffering from back pain recently, and is prone to soreness. He has no strength all over his body, and either wants to lie on his stomach or lie down.

In the drawing book, it was written that the demon king, who was still a mortal child, willingly dedicated his soul to nine thousand evil spirits in order to be with his sweetheart who had become a ghost, so he degenerated into a demon.But this fairy was moved to tears, and while wiping the corners of his eyes with the monkey behind his back, he asked: "Great Sage, you, are you not going to live next door at all, just, uh, just come straight to my side of?"

The monkey heard Ben Xianjun's choking, and after a pause, he leaned over and asked softly, "What's the matter, are you crying?"

Ben Xianjun shook his head, "It's nothing, it's because I'm getting older and I've become more emotional. The abuse point is low, and my eyes tend to get sour when I see some sad plots."

The monkey straightened the messy hair that the fairy spread on the floor, and when he was sure that he would not press the fairy's hair, he stuck it up.His chin rested on the socket of Ben Xianjun's shoulder, and he aimed his eyes at the drawing book, "Where is it? I read this book when you were in the hot spring, and I didn't think it was cruel."

"It's right here." Ben Xianjun sniffled and pointed to him: "The devil even sold his own soul in order to accompany his sweetheart who turned into a ghost. The moment when the ghosts devoured his soul, it hurt so much. And if his own willpower is not strong enough to defeat the evil spirit, he will easily turn into a puppet of the evil spirit, a monster that is neither human nor ghost. But you see, when he exchanged his soul, he still Laugh."

"Maybe," the monkey pondered for a moment, then said softly, "Maybe at this time he doesn't even have time to think about whether it will hurt or become a puppet. In short, I don't think it is cruel. On the contrary, I believe that if you really use affection for a person In the depths, the soul cannot be taken away. Because what has supported him to this day and made him make every decision is not from the evil of the soul, but from love. Love is hope .”

Ben Xianjun wiped the corner of his eyes again, turned his head to look at him: "Love, is hope?"

"Love is naturally hope." The monkey moved to the fairy gentleman's mouth and kissed it, and said with a smile: "It's just a picture book, and it's not real. Do you really want to cry all morning about it? And don't you think it's those Has the evil spirit been tricked by Ji Ye? Since he dared to exchange his soul for the supreme mana for the one he loves, how could he easily turn himself into a ruthless puppet? In my opinion, he is sure I did it so I wouldn’t fall.”

"..." After Monkey's explanation, Ben Xianjun felt a little relieved, but he still felt very uncomfortable, and sighed: "I know this is just a trick used by 'Unknown Guest' to use the devil as a gimmick to attract readers. The prototype of the story is different. It must be Halberd Night, and even the story may not really exist. But I am old, and maybe it is really not suitable to watch this kind of story in the future..."

The monkey was not happy anymore, pinching the tip of the fairy's nose, and scolding with a smile: "Why are you so old, how old are you? Is it as old as those white-bearded old men in the sky?"

"Great Sage!" Ben Xianjun patted his hand away, and smiled through tears: "Little Immortal is more than 2000 years old, isn't he still old? Even immortals don't need to look at age, but they should have more experience if they are not old. It's you who always treat me like a child."

"After so much, I hope you have never changed, and you are still as innocent as you were before 2000." Monkey said, his eyes were blank and he frowned as he spoke, as if he was remembering something.Then he carefully tightened his arms and hugged me.

Ben Xianjun followed with a sigh, and said in his heart: In the past, I was not called naive, but stupid, so I was kept in the dark by all of you and played around.

But after so many years, I have slowly looked away from many things, and I don't want to care about them anymore.Because it's not that I haven't been careless before, with monkeys, with golden cicadas, with gods and Buddhas, and with myself.But after thinking about it and thinking about it, it is myself who suffers and suffers in the end.That being the case, it is better to turn a blind eye and close one eye, and let everything go as it pleases.

If the fate is still there, I am still there; if the fate is gone one day, no matter how hard I try to stay, it will be exhausting, so I have to go along with it.Thinking so, Ben Xianjun closed the picture book and turned over, looking at the monkey who insisted on squeezing on the couch with me and almost fell off, smiled and said: "Great Sage, don't interrupt, I just asked you You haven't answered the question yet. Say, you didn't even clean up the yard over there, did you come directly to my side?"

"Yes or no, haven't I come here?" Monkey asked.Ben Xianjun didn't say anything, and heard him say sullenly: "But once I come here, I don't want to leave you again, happy."

"..." Ben Xianjun softened his heart, raised his hand to rub his head, and said with a smile: "Monkey, be good."

Ben Xianjun discovered a very interesting thing before. Many stuffed animals like to be touched on the head, and monkeys are no exception.Every time this fairy lord rubbed his head, he would squint his eyes in comfort, trying repeatedly.It's the same this time.No one said a word, just staying in such a quiet place, it actually felt very good.

It was extremely cool under the tree, and there was a faint fragrance of peach blossoms.After lying down, it was noon.Zitong led the group of children back through the hole in the wall, and showed us the fruit of his morning labor - an iron-black general cricket.

Ben Xianjun praised him twice symbolically, and he happily went to the cricket fight, saying that he would come back after lunch.Over the past few months, not only did Zitong get acquainted with this group of little beggars, but they also became friends with children from several nearby families.However, Shilipu is full of people, gods, demons, fish and dragons, so I still want him to keep an eye out when he is playing, and not to associate with anyone.

The monkey went to prepare lunch, and Ben Xianjun pulled up a small bench and sat beside him to watch.Hearing footsteps coming from the yard, he thought it was Zitong and the others coming back, but he didn't care.

After a while, he found that the monkey had put down the kitchen knife in his hand, straightened up, and stared at the back of the fairy with a serious expression.It's been a long time since I've seen him show such an expression. During the days when we were in Shilipu with me, he always laughed more often, and he was rarely so cold.

Noticing that there was a white figure reflected in the monkey's eyes, Ben Xianjun was taken aback for a moment, and finally realized that the person who came was not Zitong, and hurriedly turned around, only to see Jin Chan.

Jin Chan is completely different from usual.

The golden cicada in white clothes, the golden cicada with blue silk like ink, the noble and glamorous golden cicada, the golden cicada with faint sadness in his eyes.

I didn't expect that Jin Chan would shed her cassock one day, put on plain clothes, and tie up her hair with three thousand inks.It's just that he doesn't know who he is for.But it's not hard to think, from the way he looked at the monkey, even though he didn't say a word, this fairy already understood it all.

It has been a long time since the three of them stood face to face like this. The last time I went to the Xitian Zangjing Pavilion to look up the monkey's "Ge Zhuan" was the last time I met in front of the Daleiyin Temple.I still remember that the monkey and the golden cicada were both standing under the tree, and they looked surprisingly compatible.Now Jin Chan has tied up her long hair, which is better than before.

Ben Xianjun felt a little embarrassed.

The same is true for Jin Chanying.If it is said that in the small kitchen of this fairy, the only one among the three who is not embarrassed is the monkey.But he didn't speak, just looked at Jin Chan.

Ben Xianjun stood up, as the owner of the house, I should say something polite, but I was too embarrassed to break the silence.Jinchan had never seen a monkey cooking, so he not only stared at the monkey, but also at the pile of Chinese cabbage that the monkey had cut on the chopping board.The astonished look in his eyes has not been retracted for a long time.Ben Xianjun couldn't help thinking, if he knew that when the monkey was with me, he was not only responsible for washing clothes, cooking, massage, but also doing farm work, watering, weeding, weeding and catching insects, maybe he would not only be shocked, but feel distressed. .

This fairy seems a little inhumane to monkeys.I looked at the monkey with a guilty conscience, and saw that he had half rolled up his sleeves just now in order to work quickly, his arms were exposed, and the crumbs of vegetable leaves were still stained on his hands.I didn't really want the monkey to look so embarrassed in front of Jin Chan or any other outsiders, so my first reaction was to stretch out my hand to straighten his sleeves, and then took a rag beside him to wipe his hands.Unexpectedly, he was held by the monkey instead, and he couldn't help being taken aback.

The monkey held me with one hand, snatched the dishcloth I was holding with the other, turned his head to me with a smile and said, "I haven't finished cutting the vegetables yet, is it too early for you to wipe my hands now?"

Ben Xianjun glanced at Jin Chan and reminded: "Great Sage, there are guests at home, looking for you." Then he nodded to Jin Chan as a greeting.This fairy has nothing to say to him, even if there is, it shouldn't be said now.

Jin Chan looked away from our clasped hands, he looked at the monkey and said, "I have something to tell you."

Because of this fairy, there is already a gap between Jin Chan and the monkey.This time Jin Chan was able to come to the human world from the West Heavenly Court to look for monkeys, and she seemed to have tidied herself up on purpose, presumably because she wanted to tell the monkeys something very serious, that this fairy is here, maybe there will be some Get in the way.So Ben Xianjun took a step back to the side, wanting to withdraw his hand and leave temporarily, so as to make room for the two of them to be alone.

But the monkey secretly strengthened his hands and clenched this fairy.The corners of his mouth curled up a little, and his smile looked a little cold.It's just that I don't know if he sneered because he saw that the fairy wanted to hide away, or because of what Jin Chan said just now.He said "Oh" and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Jin Chan glanced at me, sighed, and said softly after a long silence: "Come back, Wukong. West Heavenly Court, I can't live without you."
