Chapter 136: Old Crow, You're So Daring ( Words)

Who doesn't like something that is beneficial and costs nothing?

"You are joking, Taoist priest. How can I change the cause and effect?"

After all, Sun Wukong is Monkey King, not Bajie, so how could he accept the consequences of human karma so easily?

The fact that debts of favor are the hardest to repay has been understood by Sun Wukong for hundreds of years.

Say.

Only a fool like a pig would dare to agree to such cause and effect that a hidden and powerful person like Taoist Lu Ya would care about it.

"Why should the Great Sage despise himself?"

You are such a disgrace!

Upon hearing what Taoist Lu Ya said, Sun Wukong was so angry that he laughed.

This method of both beating and praising is really despicable.

"The Taoist probably doesn't know that I was really frightened by the Western Heaven. When the big monk saw me, he just stretched out his hand, and a giant hand that held up the sky covered the whole area. There was no escape or avoidance, and he captured me in one fell swoop."

"If it weren't for the luck of heaven, I still have some means to save my life. I'm afraid I can only eat vegetarian food and pray to Buddha now."

"I can endure simple meals, sleeping in the open air, whatever. But if I have to live like a dead man every day, it's better for me to die."

Sun Wukong's words were very heartfelt.

In fact, these words were specifically spoken to Taoist Lu Ya.

"How can I, a useless monkey like this, continue the so-called cause and effect of the Taoist? It's better not to say it, it's better not to say it."

Sun Wukong looked so discouraged that Taoist Lu Ya felt his teeth itching.

Not really, he saw that Sun Wukong was deliberately deceiving him.

But Taoist Lu Ya always felt that Sun Wukong just wanted to make a big request, and even wanted to know the cause and effect first before talking about other things.

original.

What Taoist Lu Ya wanted was to let Sun Wukong bear the consequences before discussing other things.

As long as Sun Wukong agreed, and with the Taoist Lu Ya's magical power as a witness, some things could not be changed.

It’s a nice idea, but Sun Wukong doesn’t fall for it.

"Great Sage, do you know how many Arhats and Bodhisattvas have come to the Wuzhuang Temple, and how many Buddhas are hiding in the dark?"

"Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, I'm afraid you will have to bear the consequences for the sake of the Great Sage."

"If the Taoist priest hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known. It seems that I must come to Wuzhuang Temple more often in the future. It is so sacred that I must make friends with it. Thank you for your guidance, Taoist priest. I thank you here."

As he said this, Sun Wukong actually clasped his fists towards Taoist Lu Ya.

When Sun Wukong saw Taoist Lu Ya in this state, he had zigzag wrinkles on his brows.

"Great Sage, why should we be so secretive?"

Seeing that Sun Wukong couldn't get any words out of him even after beating around the bush and even using tricks, and looking at the outside of Wuzhuang Temple, where the immortal Zhen Yuanzi and Maitreya Buddha were already talking with smiles on their faces, Taoist Lu Ya became a little anxious, "The Great Sage has something to ask for, and I have something to ask for too, so why not just follow this fate?"

Sun Wukong is serious about pretending to be stupid.

After being played by a group of professional actors for hundreds of years, it would be strange if Sun Wukong didn't learn his lesson.

The more Taoist Lu Ya said this, the more Sun Wukong would not let go.

If it is general cause and effect.

Just speak directly, just like the immortal Zhen Yuanzi before. Sun Wukong can afford what he needs and asks for, and he doesn't mind leaving the willow branch in Wuzhuang Temple temporarily.

At most, it would just be a waste of some of the Three Lights Divine Water.

In exchange for thirty years of ease, Sun Wukong felt it was worth it. That was enough.

As for the Taoist priest in front of him, no matter how Sun Wukong looked at him, he felt that he was like Jiang Ziya who was about to be tricked, except that Lu Ya was just about to take out the Seven Arrows Book.

"Do you think that I can be compared with those Bodhisattvas and Buddhas?"

"Old Sun still has some self-awareness."

Sun Wukong considered himself incompetent, and all the words that Lu Ya Taoist had said became nonsense.

A moment of silence.

Seeing the Maitreya Buddha outside the Wuzhuang Temple, with Buddha's light shining all over his body and the faint shadow of Tathagata appearing behind him, Taoist Lu Ya knew that this was because Zhen Yuanzi had persuaded this future Buddha and was waiting for Tathagata to make the final decision.

Although he was reluctant to hear what kind of deal Maitreya Buddha and Zhen Yuanzi had made, Taoist Lu Ya knew that he didn't have much time left.

"Great Sage, do you know that there are nine extremely magical hot springs in this world?"

Without waiting for Sun Wukong to speak, Taoist Lu Ya continued, "They are the Xiangling Spring, Banshan Spring, Wenquan, Donghe Spring, Huangshan Spring, Xiaoan Spring, Guangfen Spring, Tangquan and Zhuogu Spring! These nine hot springs have existed since ancient times, and no one knows how many years have passed since then."

"Such a hot spring is really magical."

"In the ancient times of witches and liches, ten suns rose and the earth burned. This angered a great witch of the Tuwu clan, causing his magic bow to fall for nine suns. The place where the nine suns fell later gained some luck and inspiration, and then there were nine hot springs."

"The cause and effect that I am seeking from the Great Sage now comes from these nine hot springs."

Hot spring? Houyi shooting the sun?!

Sun Wukong blinked his monkey eyes, as if he understood something.

Lu Ya Lu Ya, this name means old crow, Sun Wukong knew it long ago.

I just didn't think about it.

This old crow was looking for his own karma, actually for his nine brothers.

Could it be that those nine golden crows still have a chance of coming back to life, and that Old Sun could go and rescue them?

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong shuddered for no reason.

You can’t mess with the Golden Crow!

God knows how many prehistoric creatures were burned to death when they went out together for ten days, and how many people from the witch tribe and the human race were killed. It is possible that all the prehistoric tribes had a grudge against them.

If this is saved...

"The Taoist is saying that there is a treasure in the hot spring, and you want me to help you get it?"

"Of course not!"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Lu Ya's brows tightened. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Great Sage, you don't know that in those nine hot springs, there are nine drops of Golden Crow's divine blood, which can only be inherited by the spirit of De Tian. If you can obtain the nine drops of divine blood and refine it with a clever method, you will naturally have the power of the Great Sun."

"Of course, this place will also be affected by the karma of the sun."

"I want the Great Sage to refine the divine blood and resolve the cause and effect of the nine hot springs."

Taoist Lu Ya avoided the main issue and did not mention anything about the wizard-lich calamity, the ten-day cause and effect, the wizard-lich cause and effect, and so on.

The pros and cons were mentioned together in order to make Sun Wukong ignorant and willing to agree easily.

"This is not good. He has been dead for so many years. It is not right to rob his grave and dig up his grave."

"Although I don't understand any human etiquette, I know that this is not something I can do."

Old crow, you really dare to think like that!
Sun Wukong was convinced. He had never thought that the old crow was waiting for him here.

Sun Wukong is not really a wild monkey who knows nothing.

Even though Patriarch Bodhi did not teach him much, he did not learn any calculations from the Queen Wa Palace, and he did not know any cause and effect of the past.

But Sun Wukong knew it in advance.

I won't fall for it.

"Great Sage, don't forget that it is not easy to convince the Western Heaven to forgive you for thirty years."

"That ancient tooth is extremely rare! If you miss this opportunity, the Great Sage will never be able to find it again in the future. There is nothing you can do about it!"

Seeing that all his cards were revealed, Sun Wukong still refused to take the risk.

Taoist Lu Ya had an idea at this moment, so he captured Sun Wukong and sent him to the Nine Hot Springs to have a good bath.

At worst, he could personally perform the secret technique and refine the nine drops of divine blood into Sun Wukong's spiritual body, and that would be all.

But in this way, he might be able to inherit at least 30% of some causes and effects.

It's really not worth it.

"Great Sage, with that ancient tooth, it may take too long for you to become a sage... but becoming an innate saint is a natural outcome for you."

"Great Sage, do not underestimate the innate saints. Although they are both Daluo, only the innate saints have a 30% chance of connecting with the truth of heaven and earth. Practicing all the ways and methods, they can obtain the Hunyuan Dao fruit."

The Hunyuan Dao Fruit that Taoist Lu Ya was talking about at this time was naturally not the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

But it is the saying of quasi-saint.

"Great Sage, you know that there are countless primordial powers in the world today, and ninety-nine percent of them are innate spirits."

"To be able to achieve the state of Hun Yuan and to obtain some cause and effect, what does that mean? What do you think, Great Sage?"

"Well... Taoist priest, can you wait for a while and let me think about it carefully?"

Sun Wukong originally wanted to casually evade Taoist Lu Ya, but seeing the murderous look in his eyes just now, he could only use the tactic of procrastination.

There have been trips to the underworld, the East China Sea, and even a disturbance in heaven.

Sun Wukong has grown up.

These powerful men who come and go like gods, once they have plans for Sun Wukong, will resort to force if they cannot use words to solve the problem.

It can be said that the goal justifies any means.

"The name of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is known to everyone in heaven and on earth. It is really not pleasant for the Great Sage to be so coquettish. I will just assume that the Great Sage has agreed! Now, while fellow Taoist Zhen Yuanzi has persuaded the monk from the West, I will also speak a few words on behalf of the Great Sage!"

So saying.

Without even waiting for Sun Wukong to say anything, he disappeared in an instant with a flash.

The next moment, the old crow was outside the Wuzhuang Temple. He took over the words of the Buddha Tathagata and began to help Sun Wukong to persuade the two Tathagatas.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong suddenly felt that this life as a monkey was too difficult.

He obviously doesn't want the treasures and opportunities that are delivered to his door, but some people are willing to give them to him, which is like asking for his life.

……

Qiqiao Mountain, Fengyun Cave.

The six-eared macaque, who has always been low-key and patient, has been practicing in seclusion in the cave since he quietly returned from heaven.

This time, I followed the advice of Guanyin Bodhisattva and went to heaven.

Of course it wasn't a wasted trip.

After his true form was quietly hidden by the Buddha, he passed on a method called the Six Paths of Glazed Golden Body. As long as one could master it, one would only need to reincarnate through the six paths in the future to become a Buddha.

Just this day.

A streak of blood appeared from nowhere and fell directly at the foot of Qiqiao Mountain.

However, the blood light trembled and turned slightly, and easily turned into an old Taoist with a Taoist temperament, humming an unknown tune with a bit of ancient and strange air, and came all the way to Fengyun Cave.

All the restrictions on the road seemed to completely ignore the existence of this old Taoist.

It was not until he walked to the entrance of the cave and casually knocked on the tightly closed stone door that the six-eared macaque in the cave actually sensed something.

"Who? Who is it..."

The six-eared macaque naturally has more than one cave.

However, this Fengyun Cave is the cave that Liu'er Mihou has built for the longest time and is the most secretive.

There are more than 300 immortal caves in this mountain range, but no one knows that the Six-Eared Macaque is the owner of the Fengyun Cave, not even the Bodhisattva Guanyin knows.

What I want is privacy and stability.

With a change of mind, the six-eared macaque easily sensed the old Taoist at the entrance of the cave, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Can't see clearly, can't feel clearly!

The old Taoist was clearly standing there, but in the mind, he was like mist and wind, making it impossible to grasp even a trace of his aura.

"It could be a powerful person!! But when did I provoke such a person..."

After thinking it over for a long time, Liu Er Mihou still couldn't figure it out, but he also knew that it was impossible to run or hide when someone like this came to his door!

With a plan in mind, the six-eared macaque opened the door of the mansion and greeted him in person at the entrance, "Greetings, senior!"

"Six Ears is polite! I wonder what you mean, Senior?"

Very direct and straightforward!
Looking at the monkey in front of him and listening to its words, the old Taoist couldn't help but smile lightly, "You monkey, you have a lot of thoughts in your mind. I came here just to save you, are you willing to listen?"

"Please give me some advice, senior! Please come in, senior. I hope you can tolerate the dilapidated Han Mansion."

What is willing or not, what can be saved or not.

Liu Er Mihou didn't believe a word of it. He had lived for thousands of years and had seen all kinds of Taoists and gods. He had been cheated so many times that he naturally became ruthless.

But I understand it better.

Faced with such a powerful being, there is no other way but to obey and respect him.

Buddhism may be reliable, but it cannot quench a nearby fire.

"For those who practice cultivation, why should they be confused by external things?"

The old Taoist entered the cave of the six-eared macaque and was not shy. When the monkey invited him to take a seat, he sat down naturally.

He also reached out and pinched two spiritual fruits and threw them into his mouth.

After tasting it, he continued, "You, monkey, are a spirit born and raised by nature. According to common sense, since nature gave birth to you and raised you, you naturally have your own destiny. It's a pity that you offended someone you shouldn't have offended in your previous life, and that's why you're so reckless."

"In the end, he was infected with the bad luck of the West. He is really an unlucky monkey."

It would have been fine if the old Taoist hadn't spoken, but once he opened his mouth, the six-eared macaque was afraid to think or speak.

He never told anyone about the relationship between him and the West.

He also believed that neither Guanyin Bodhisattva nor the Buddha Tathagata could reveal any trace of him.

But the old Taoist in front of him said it all in one sentence.

What are you talking about previous lives?!

"Please teach me, senior!"

"What's there to teach? We are born and grow up... Everyone has come this far step by step. What's the use of what others say? What do their ways and laws have to do with you? Monkey, have you ever seen anyone who can achieve great things by learning from others' principles and causes and effects?"

"Today I will teach you a lesson. Some things cannot be obtained by waiting, nor can they be given by others. Instead, you have to snatch them away."

"When there is only one path and one law in the world, and they all belong to you, if you don't achieve enlightenment, who will? All those who stand in your way will be killed, and that's it."

The old Taoist dared to speak, but even the six-eared macaque didn't dare to listen.

The words were spoken lightly, but they were filled with murderous intent, as if he wanted to kill all the living things in the world to fulfill his own purpose.

and.

Liu'er Mihou understood, but didn't want to confirm it.

"Why, can't you hear what I'm saying?"

"Or do you understand and think what I said is wrong?"

The old Taoist smiled and pointed at the spiritual fruits on the plate in front of him. He said, "Monkey, tell me, if there are only a few spiritual fruits like the ones on this plate in the world, do you think they are worth money? Even using money to measure their value is all false!"

(Thanks to everyone for the resources. I got up from bed in the middle of the night to write. Today I will double the amount!! Enjoy.)
