Chapter 138 The Monkey Remains in Wuzhuang Temple and Won't Leave (4000 Words)
The primitive times without the intervention of Heaven were too barbaric and too bloody.
If there is no heavenly way, how can there be any truth and reason in this world?
As long as I want to, as long as I can, there is no one in the world that cannot be killed, and there is nothing in the world that cannot be returned.
One thought can move stars and drop the stars, one thought can kill thousands of miles away...
This led to large-scale fights among many star gods and sacred beings, which was all too common before the ancient times.
It's totally possible to say.
The primitive times before the ancient times were an era of great war.
even.
At that time, the innate gods and the myriad races of the prehistoric world did not like to display their magical powers or great arts, nor did they like to sacrifice their spiritual treasures to fight and kill. They themselves were the Tao, and every punch and kick was a magical power and great art, and even breathing was as great as magical power.
What else is needed?
Sun Wukong likes to listen to stories, and he is also curious about how many strange things happened in the ancient times that are difficult for others to know.
As long as Zhen Yuanzi was willing to talk, Sun Wukong could listen for three months without getting bored.
Anyway, he could just lie down and do nothing. What could Sun Wukong not like when there was a great immortal who was in harmony with the world and told him stories?
Sun Wukong was satisfied.
But the six-eared macaque who was waiting outside Wanshou Mountain, opening his six ears from time to time and listening carefully to the surroundings within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, trying to find Sun Wukong coming out of the mountain, was really getting annoyed.
I waited left but there was no sign of Sun Wukong, and I waited right but there was no sound of Sun Wukong.
Even if Sun Wukong revealed a little of his whereabouts, even if only a few words of Sun Wukong were heard, at least people knew that Sun Wukong was still there.
But there are no traces of these at all.
"That monkey, 99% of the time, has not left Wuzhuang Temple, but why is there no movement at all? Could it be that he has used some secret method to move heaven and earth away? Or has the monkey figured out that someone is waiting for him here, and he has the foresight to do it first?"
Waited for three months, then waited for four months.
The six-eared macaque waited so long that he really suspected that Sun Wukong had already left Wuzhuang Temple and wondered if it was time for him to leave.
Finally, I heard the voice of Sun Wukong "Great Immortal..."
This made the six-eared macaque's eyes turn red.
Finally, the wait has come!
This monkey has not left Wuzhuang Temple yet, he is still here!
After that, every day, or every few days, Liu'er Macaque could hear some words from Sun Wukong. Although they were intermittent and incoherent, they were enough.
Only half a year had passed and Sun Wukong still hadn't appeared. This really made Liu'er Mihou scratch his head.
"That monkey, is he going to stay in Wuzhuang Temple and not leave?"
"How can this be possible!"
As the protagonist of the Heavenly Palace Incident, Liu'er Macaque knew very well how precious Sun Wukong was to Western Buddhism.
If we don't take advantage of the time, before Sun Wukong joins the journey to the West and is pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, to completely take away his luck, there will be little chance of getting it back in the future.
"Why is it Wuzhuang Temple!"
The six-eared macaque was already a little furious when he could not wait for Sun Wukong to come. "That immortal rarely makes friends with others and rarely keeps outsiders in his cave. For countless years, Sun Wukong is the only one who can stay in Wuzhuang Temple. Why?!"
"What's so good about that monkey!"
After waiting for three to five years, the ancestor of the Styx finally disappeared and went to the Wuzhuang Temple to see what had happened to the Six-Eared Macaque.
When he saw that the six-eared macaque had become somewhat crazy at this moment, he almost couldn't help but throw down a blood demon of the heavens, which completely aroused all the delusions of the monkey and turned them into food for the blood demon.
This is also the time.
Sun Wukong, who had been lying down in Wuzhuang Temple, suddenly heard a system prompt.
[Ding, six-eared macaque detected. Because the host was lying down and playing rotten in a specific area, and could not wait for the host to come out, the defense was broken invisibly, allowing the host's ability to play rotten to be revealed, and a large amount of rotten gains were obtained. The system reward is being drawn. ]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining an innate mixed wind hammer! ]
Isn't it a monthly or annual flat reward?!
"Old Sun said that it seems that the time is not right yet. But where did this six-eared macaque come from?"
Looking carefully at the system prompts, Sun Wukong suddenly understood something.
It looks like someone is guarding the place!
Definitely no good intentions.
Sun Wukong vaguely remembered that someone seemed to have said that the Sun Wukong who finally reached Lingshan and obtained the true scriptures was no longer the Sun Wukong. As early as the difficulty of the true and false Sun Wukong, the six-eared macaque replaced the real Monkey King.
In the end, he enjoyed the fruit of fighting and defeating Buddhahood from Sun Wukong.
Blinking his monkey eyes, Sun Wukong thought about it and suddenly smiled, "That's good, you came out now. If you, Six-eared, hadn't come out earlier, I wouldn't have known that you were plotting against me. Those bald heads said very well, and they also wanted me to go to the West to seek the scriptures..."
"But who knows how much filth there is in secret?"
For trivial matters like the Riots in Heaven, the old bald Tathagata could ask other monkeys to take his place. Sun Wukong really never thought about how much these bald Buddhas in the West liked him.
It’s possible that he really needs to be replaced!
"Just wait patiently. It would be best if I could wait until Old Sun's Nine-Turn Mysterious Art is perfected. Then I can beat him to death with a stick, that would be the best!"
It has been nearly ten years since Wahuangtian returned.
The tens of millions of cultivation experiences that Sun Wukong had accumulated intermittently had already been added to the Nine Revolutions Profound Art. Now, his profound art had already reached the upper level of the eighth revolution. It would only take another two or three years for him to achieve the ninth revolution!
In fact, Sun Wukong himself also sensed it, and his own cultivation had reached the peak of Taiyi, as if he could cross the boundary of Daluo at any time.
After nine turns and one completion, Daluo will surely be achieved!
By that time, Sun Wukong would be able to use the God-killing Spear once or twice, and it would not be difficult for him to kill the Six-Eared Macaque.
……
Western Heaven, Jiuyang Mountain.
Taoist Lu Ya, who was present here, waited for Mahavairocana for seven years before he finally saw the Tathagata and returned in the form of light.
The entire Lingshan Mountain in the West.
No one knows where this Tathagata went, not even Taoist Lu Ya could figure it out.
From Wuzhuang Temple.
After Taoist Lu Ya forced Sun Wukong to sell a cause and effect, he went to the outside of Wuzhuang Temple to meet the Buddha Tathagata and a group of Buddhists. He thought that certain things would come to fruition naturally, but in the end he still did not get any advantage from the Buddha.
The Tathagata Buddha only speaks words, and it requires Vairocana Tathagata to speak, and it requires the Western Paradise to respond.
Seeing that the World Honored One Tathagata had mentioned two saints, Taoist Lu Ya did not know what to say and had to go find Vairocana Tathagata.
But I didn’t expect that once I arrived at Lingshan, I would have to wait so long!
"… Tathagata, you are really a busy man!"
Seeing the Sun Tathagata descend from the clouds, Taoist Lu Ya's tone became a little impatient, "If you wait for a while, maybe I won't have to help you repay this karma."
"I have no limit to my Buddhahood! There are some things I cannot get rid of, and there is really nothing I can do about it."
Vairocana Tathagata and Taoist Lu Ya had a one-on-one relationship before, so naturally they understood each other's temperament very well.
I also know that Lu Ya can do what he says!
So it is.
Only then would the Tathagata put aside all the affairs of the universe and hurried back to the Lingshan Mountain in the West to see Taoist Lu Ya.
"Talk about it in the cave."
As he spoke, Mahavairocana opened the cave and lifted all the treasure restrictions. Then he asked, "But what happened to that monkey?"
Now in the ancient world, the only one that Tathagata cares about the most is Sun Wukong.
To be more precise, it was the cause and effect of the nine hot springs that were thrown to Sun Wukong!
Taoist Lu Ya has also been working hard on this matter.
Of course he knows.
"Not really. I have imposed the cause and effect on the monkey, so I have accomplished most of the task. What I need now is to convince you in the Western Paradise to give the monkey thirty years of leisure. If this is accomplished, even if the monkey doesn't want to accept it, it won't work."
"Thirty years?"
What thirty years of freedom? At first, Tathagata didn't listen carefully. Later, he counted with his fingers and found that Taoist Lu Ya didn't hide anything, so he understood it immediately.
Knowing is one thing, but wanting to do it is difficult.
According to common sense.
Zhen Yuanzi was able to convince the Buddha Tathagata, and Taoist Lu Ya is not bad either. At most he will have to pay a certain price. That's all.
But the Buddha wanted him to speak first. Taoist Lu Ya might not be clear about the matter, but Vairocana Tathagata himself knew it very well.
"Difficult."
Mahavairocana smiled bitterly and tried again, "Maybe we can convince that monkey to ask for something else? Even if he wants two innate spiritual treasures, we can give them to him."
"Go find the monkey yourself. He is now in the Wuzhuang Temple!"
Convincing a monkey? You must be kidding!
Taoist Lu Ya tried his best to convince the seemingly honest and simple-minded monkey, but failed. He could only force the monkey to do the deed and earned the money.
There is no possibility of going there now.
It’s hard to say whether the monkey is cunning or not, but he likes to be relaxed and free, which is absolutely true!
"If I go, when will the cause and effect between you and me be resolved?"
"Sooner or later."
Taoist Lu Ya had previously been eager to completely resolve the cause and effect with Mahavairocana, or with the Sixth Prince of the Golden Crow, so as to look for the chance of achieving enlightenment that he had finally found.
Now there is no rush.
It's not that I'm unwilling to give up the opportunity, but I'm in a hurry. I don't want to completely step into the cause and effect of the journey to the West.
Otherwise, if you lose one cause and effect of the deity and then get another cause and effect of Buddhism, you won’t know whether it is a loss or a gain.
"This... that monkey, is it really that hard to convince? Is there nothing in this world that he wants?"
"At least, I don't see it. Maybe, to be free and idle forever is what he wants..."
Vairocana Tathagata...
Such a monkey is really speechless.
There are more than tens of thousands of practitioners in the world. Who doesn't like elixirs, magic weapons, and scriptures? Even if they are innate spiritual roots and magic weapons, the monkey just doesn't care.
What can I do?
"I don't want to be a Buddha in the past, and I can't be one either."
After pondering for a while, Mahavairocana sighed, "If you take that step, it's almost impossible to turn back."
Taoist Lu Ya naturally understood what Vairocana Tathagata said.
There are three Buddhas in the West: the present Buddha, the future Buddha, and the past Buddha.
Even though the Buddhas of the past are equal to the Buddhas of today and are the only ones in the entire Lingshan Mountain in the Western Paradise, Buddhism still pays attention to the inside and outside of Nirvana.
Since the past is past, sooner or later there will be nirvana.
It really is that time.
The Buddha of the past is naturally no longer the Buddha of the past, but no one knows what he is.
As the good body of the Sixth Prince of the Golden Crow, if Vairocana Tathagata were to "pass away" one day, it would be impossible for him to return to his original form or to rebuild the great way to reach a higher level, no matter if he was reincarnated or cultivated in some other way.
The death of Taoist Lu Ya has already caused great harm to the Sixth Prince of Jinwu...
Once again, I almost wanted him to die.
How could he?
"Please go see the monkey again, and I will go see the Buddha, hoping I can convince one of them."
"What if I can't?"
Vairocana Tathagata remained silent and said nothing.
……
Inner chaos, the Queen Wa Palace.
One day, the goddess Nuwa was throwing the magical honey brought by a group of magical bees into a hexagonal jar, wondering whether she should make some fruit honey wine, when she suddenly sensed something.
After a slight sigh.
Nuwa waved her hand again, opened the door to the Wahuang Heaven, and brought a Taoist priest covered in golden light to her side.
The Taoist priest, who looked no more than 28 years old, bowed down and worshipped Nuwa as soon as he saw her.
But he never said anything.
After he knelt for a long while, Nuwa threw all the honey into the jar and then spoke, "What are you doing back here?"
"My Lady, Xiaoliu is really too embarrassed to come and see you, but..."
If possible, the Sixth Prince of Jinwu really didn't want to come to the Queen Nuwa Palace, and even more so didn't want to meet the saint in front of him.
It's not that he had any hatred or grudge against her, but he knew that what he did back then had greatly disappointed the empress.
He has no shame!
"Is it because of the monkey?"
Goddess Nuwa didn't even need to make any calculations. She only needed to take a look at the Sixth Prince and she understood.
He came to see her because he had something to ask for and had no other choice.
"Yes!"
"You know, I have promised my two junior brothers that I will not participate in the journey to obtain the scriptures."
Seeing the Sixth Prince's face suddenly turn pale, Nuwa sighed again, "Forget it, forget it. Who told you to be out of my palace? When you were still young, although you were a little noisy and willful, you still had some innocence..."
"You have grown up now, but you have lost a lot of things. This is not good for your practice."
It was a rare occasion, but considering the past, Nuwa still gave the Sixth Prince some advice.
Afterwards, the lady took something out of thin air from somewhere, and suddenly a seven-colored auspicious feather appeared in her hand.
She used her finger as a pen. I don't know what the lady wrote on the phoenix feather. She then threw it directly to the Sixth Prince who was kneeling in front of her.
"Take it, take it. And remember, that monkey called me mother, but I didn't treat him well. Don't go too far with some things."
Before he could finish his words, Nuwa spread out her sleeves and a breeze suddenly blew up, throwing the Sixth Prince far out of the Nuwa Heaven and straight into the sky.
At the same time, Nuwa looked towards the west again.
She sensed that the two saints from the West had just looked at her.
But so what.
That doesn’t count, it was she, the saint, who took action!
……
Wanshou Mountain, Wuzhuang Temple.
After a few days, Sun Wukong almost forgot about Taoist Lu Ya.
Finally, on this day, Taoist Lu Ya came to Wuzhuang Temple again. After exchanging greetings with Zhen Yuanzi, he met Sun Wukong in a quiet room in the temple.
"Great Sage, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Seeing that Taoist Lu Ya was so straightforward, Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "What are you disappointed about? I can't be nice."
To Sun Wukong, it made little difference whether those thirty years existed or not.
At worst, I can just continue playing the game of chase with the monk Tathagata.
More than twenty years later, Sun Wukong must have already become a Daluo Jinxian.
It really is time.
It would be even more difficult for Xitian to trap him.
"Great Sage, that ancient tooth is my apology. Great Sage, please take a look at it, okay?"
