The Monkey King

The one-sided battle began again. The monkey waved the golden cudgel and smashed it like crazy.

Mountains, rivers, everything was destroyed beyond recognition. The strong wind swept everything, and the terrain was reshaped over and over again. The sand and gravel were overwhelming, even the only moonlight was blocked.

But no matter how loud his movements were, how strong his efforts were, how much he roared, how much he struggled, Tathagata just watched quietly and smiled, with an expression as if he were watching a comedy.

The rubble falling from the sky hit the dilapidated roof of the temple, making a clanking sound like hail.

Looking at the two people from a distance, Xiao Xuanye carefully poked his head out with a confused look on his face.

Behind him, the old monk put a hand on his shoulder and stood beside him tremblingly.

"Master, is that the monster monkey you said is causing trouble in the East?"

"probably."

"What about the other one? The other one... looks like the Buddha in our temple... could he be the Buddha?"

The old monk was silent for a long time and said softly: "Maybe it is, or it may be a certain Buddha, or a certain Arhat."

The strong wind roared past carrying yellow sand, and the wild grass covered with a thick layer of frost on the ground in front of the temple trembled slightly.

Xuan Ye quietly stared at the seven-star ladybug that was frozen stiff on the grass blade and didn't know if it was dead or not. He frowned and seemed a little unhappy.

After a long time, he whispered: "That Buddha is forcing that monster monkey. He even said just now that he would take him to Lingshan..."

The words are not finished yet. The old monk had reached out and gently pressed his mouth, shaking his head to signal him to stop talking.

After a moment of silence, Xuan Ye looked up at the crazy monkey, blinked and said: "That monster monkey is not bad, the disciple heard it. He just hoped that the Buddha would not touch the people around him. But the Buddha did not agree. ...because he offended the Buddha."

Having said this, Xuan Ye lowered his head and rubbed his slightly red fingers, and said softly: "The demon monkey looks very painful. He can't put it away or let go. He is one of the living beings that the master said is sinking into the sea of ​​misery. But. Why does the Buddha add insult to injury? We ask the Buddha to bless us, but we rush to be the Buddha who doesn't want to bless others. We don't want to look back and look at the living beings behind us. Why is this?"

Raising his head, he stared at his master with wide eyes, expecting an answer.

Those eyes were so clear that it made people feel ashamed.

Faced with his doubts, the old monk could only smile faintly, stroke his little head, and let out a long sigh.

This kid never pays attention to Buddhist scriptures. But he seemed to know more than anyone else, and every time he asked a question, he could always make the old monk speechless.

Xuan Ye still stared at his master quietly, as if still waiting for the answer.

After thinking for a long time, the old monk could only say softly: "I don't have enough practice as a teacher to answer your question. When you grow up, if you have the chance, you'd better go find the answer yourself. Maybe you will be better than my teacher." It’s not necessarily good.”

"Where should I look for my disciple?"

"Go to... Lingshan Daleiyin Temple." The old monk said softly.

…

At the edge of Huaguo Mountain, Zhengfa Ming Tathagata suddenly turned his head and looked to the west. He seemed to be shocked by something. The fists tightened slightly.

In the distance, the entire Huaguo Mountain has completely dispersed.

The strength shown by Tathagata instantly pushed almost all monsters from the peak of their morale to the bottom.

The troops of the five demon kings ran away, and a large number of unsteady troops broke up and retreated, each fleeing for their lives. In the entire Huaguo Mountain, only those Monkey soldiers who existed when the Tianhe Navy Army besieged Huaguo Mountain remained. Their total number is only tens of thousands.

What's even sadder is. This unit has also been scarred for a long time.

On the deck, Bai Juan cried and fainted while holding the short-mouthed body, while Cao Xiaohua was busy taking care of it.

The Nine-Headed Insect, which was already injured and unable to move, was carried onto another battleship.

Lu Liuguai walked step by step to the dull-eyed Dajiao, looked back at the assembled monk army in the distance, and whispered: "Let's go, if we don't go, we really won't be able to leave. They may attack at any time... ...Even if the Great Sage comes back, he can't protect anyone. Hiding is the only way."

Dajiao slowly shook his head and said softly: "If I don't leave, everyone will leave. Who will take the lead? The one who can move here is the one with the highest rank... No one will take the lead. It will be easy for them to catch up."

"But……"

Staring blankly at the corpse of the spirit that was lying flat on the side and put back together again, Dajiao twitched the corners of his mouth slightly and chuckled: "I miss them. I miss them mother and daughter, I also miss Short Mouth, and Lao Niu, Old White Ape... I think there are so many of them, living is really tiring, I want... to be with them."

Looking at this big rhinoceros, which had always been careless and could fall asleep in meetings, but now burst into tears, Lu Liuguai, who had always been sharp-tongued, didn't know what to say to comfort him.

Lowering his head, Dajiao said softly: "I have really lived enough. I should have been dead in the Evil Dragon Pond. I never thought that I could become a general, have a wife, a daughter, and enjoy the blessings for so many years... … I’ve already earned it, and I have no regrets.”

Looking at Lu Liuguai, Dajiao wiped away the tears on his face and slowly smiled.

That look made Lu Liuguai stunned for a while, and he couldn't help but rush forward and hug him tightly.

"Take care...if possible, stay alive."

"Yes." Patting Lu Liuguai's back gently, Dajiao said softly: "You guys should leave quickly, I won't be able to hold you back for long."

Letting go of Lu Liuguai, he stood up slowly, leaned on the battle ax and walked forward tremblingly, facing the wind, holding on to the side of the ship, facing the only demon general in front of him, and said softly: "Give me the order, I have a wife." The sons and daughters will retreat with the army, and the rest... stay with me and be loyal to Huaguoshan."

All the demon generals stared at him quietly, silent.

Each one of them was already scarred and stained with blood, and the armor on their bodies was already in disrepair.

After a long time, one of them opened his mouth and said: "General Dajiao, I have... written a suicide note, can you stay?"

"Don't you want to retreat with your family?"

The demon general said hesitantly: "I only have one wife. I think...she won't like cowards. I want to be a hero, even if I die."

As he said that, the demon general smiled lightly.

The rest of the demon generals also laughed.

"General, I have already written a suicide note."

"Me too."

"Still standing in front of you at this time means that we will not leave. We can't even drive you away."

"You will definitely die if you stay. You should know this, right?"

The demons in front of them just smiled and did not answer.

Not everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, and when faced with death, not everyone only knows how to escape.

In a daze, Dajiao seemed to think of the little demon during the great escape on the way to the Evil Dragon Pond.

In this world, there is a spirit called courage, which is not only possessed by the truly strong.

…

"We are ready, why don't we order an attack? If we don't take action, they will all run away." The sword-wielding Buddha pointed at the demon army's fleet in the distance and said, "When the time comes, the world will be huge, and it will be troublesome to find them. "

"I'm wondering if I should attack."

"Should it be necessary? Didn't His Holiness give the order to attack?"

Zhengfa Ming Tathagata hesitated and said softly: "Perhaps, we Buddhas should find a better way to get along with the creatures in the three realms."

Hearing this, the Buddha holding the sword was stunned and looked at the Tathagata Zhengfa Ming with some doubts.

This way of speaking is very much like a person, an old friend, a person who has lost the light of Buddha.

"Where is he now?"

"He was reincarnated as a little monk, chanting sutras and enlightening in a small temple. Two lives have passed since the tenth life, and this is the third life... The world of mortals is rolling, and I don't know if he can bear it and maintain his original self. Manjushri, actually I really hope that he can comprehend a different Buddhist teaching. That’s why I agreed to help him take care of him in his last life."

The sword-wielding Buddha named Manjusri smiled faintly and sighed: "Let's talk about how to solve the matter at hand first. The Venerable has already given instructions for the attack. Isn't it appropriate for us not to give the order?"

Looking at the warships and the slowly retreating monsters in the distance, Zhengfa Ming Tathagata took a deep breath and said: "Laojun's 'inaction' has been broken, Subhuti's Taoist heart has also been damaged, and he will not be able to achieve the way of heaven in a short time. . Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Cult Master and Zhen Yuanzi were seriously injured. The Taoist power... The factors in heaven and earth that hindered us from practicing Buddhism no longer exist... That's it for the time being. We should also put things in order, and wait for them to think Now that they are gone, we will take action to fulfill the remaining ones, which will be considered as fulfilling His Holiness’s orders.”

"Okay, I'll listen to you. You are the commander-in-chief anyway." Manjusri sighed leisurely: "But don't think too much. If you become a demon and lose the Buddha's light and enter reincarnation like him, you will be able to speak by then. Wouldn’t it be a pity to lose one more person?”

After giving Manjusri a faint look, Zhengfa Ming Tathagata smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't ask you to take care of my tenth life for me."

"It's okay if it doesn't happen."

In the distance, the demon army's warships filled with wounded people raised their sails one after another. As they watched the demon army evacuate in waves, the monks just floated quietly in mid-air, occasionally adjusting their positions without any intention of attacking.

…

In the Nantian Gate, which was already in ruins, Yi Su slowly landed on the ground, breathing heavily, bending down to pick up a discarded Heavenly Army sword and holding it in his hand.

His face looked increasingly pale.

Stepping over the corpses on the ground, she walked step by step towards the Nantian Gate with her sword in hand.

The immortals along the way all dodge when they saw her two red ears, and no one actually made a move to stop her.

"The Great Sage...has he returned to Huaguo Mountain?" She thought, took out a pill, held it in her mouth, and jumped down. (To be continued ~^~)
