The Monkey King

In the abandoned courtyard, Xuanzang was sitting cross-legged under a tree, still talking carefully to the man.

At the beginning, they talked about the man's painful experience, and Xuanzang explained in detail. Then the topic turned to the king's decrees. Which decrees were good, which ones were inferior, and which ones were evil? Xuanzang used his own understanding to analyze and discuss them in detail. Gradually, the conversation shifted from the country's suffering to the method of universal salvation. From the origin of suffering to the universal value, Xuanzang explained each chapter in detail, explaining it in simple terms.

Every time he heard something wonderful, the man couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration.

In a declining world, people who have sunk into a sea of ​​suffering are always more willing to accept this detached concept than people who live a stable life.

The original questioning gaze disappeared and was replaced by a kind of admiration.

Gradually, there were more and more people in the yard. Late at night, people with no fixed place to live and no food to eat walked into this abandoned house one by one and listened to the eminent monk describing a universal and wonderful method that they had never heard of.

In this cold night, Xuanzang's words seemed to become a haven for them, making them forget the cruelty of reality and instead imagine a better future.

They sat cross-legged on the ground, surrounding Xuanzang in the middle.

The monkey, the black bear spirit, and the little white dragon stood far away, having been forced into the corner, and even behind them, they were even forced onto the roof.

Even the door was full of people watching.

At the beginning, the monkey couldn't help but think that Xuanzang was really a qualified magic stick, and he could actually rely on just one mouth. Fooling so many people. No matter how strange or childish the people's problems were, or even if they contained some hostility, Xuanzang could accurately grasp the key points and resolve them skillfully.

gradually. As those thin and yellow faces revealed a certain radiance of hope, the monkey couldn't help but sigh at Xuanzang's power.

If he is really a magic stick, having such a magic stick may not necessarily be a bad thing.

Gradually, no one asked any more questions. Xuanzang's voice was the only one left in the courtyard.

When Xuanzang looked up at the stars. Describe it to everyone for salvation. During all the wonderful moments of crossing the world of others first and then oneself, everyone present had a face full of expectations.

When Xuanzang lowered his head and talked about his confusion and worries about Pudu, everyone present was sad with him.

When Xuanzang stood up and clenched his fists to inspire their hearts to create a better life, everyone clapped their hands excitedly.

It felt like I had forgotten my hunger. Forgot the cold and all the bad governance of the king.

Yes, he successfully drove away the haze with hope and occupied everyone's heart.

Looking at Xuanzang surrounded by people from a distance, the monkey sighed lightly.

Although he had read Buddhist scriptures, he did not understand Buddhist teachings. Apart from his unbelievable desire to force Laojun to take action, he never thought about understanding it. In essence, he still goes his own way and does not accept the concept of "Buddha". Even if you go west. It was just to settle the grudge with Tathagata.

But, maybe, this is the Mahayana Buddhism, which is completely different from the Hinayana Buddhism of self-cultivation, and has not yet been truly born.

At this moment, for the first time, he felt that he was doing a good thing. For the first time, I felt that this incident was due to a personal grudge. The fact that I just got involved with him has some special meaning in this world.

While he was thinking boringly, the monkey was suddenly startled, stood up and looked out the door.

The originally quiet crowd suddenly became commotion, and many people who were sitting cross-legged on the ground stood up one after another.

A passage was opened, extending all the way from the outside of the courtyard to the house.

Not long after, the canopy and roller blinds came in along the aisle.

Someone pointed at the roller blind and said hesitantly: "This person... looks like His Majesty..."

"Yes, yes, it really seems like it. I saw him twice when His Majesty was traveling before."

"Could it be that it's not like that? The few people with Master Xuanzang have great supernatural powers. Maybe they went directly to the palace and kidnapped him?"

"It would be great if that were the case, we must burn him to death!"

"It's too easy to burn him to death. Cut him into pieces and then burn him to ashes!"

"Ling Chi is wanted! Ling Chi is executed!"

The original commotion suddenly became more intense, and for a while, everyone was talking about it. Even Xuanzang stood up and looked towards them.

After taking a few steps forward, Tianpeng quickly turned back.

Behind him, Roller Blind was already blushing. He lowered his head, listening awkwardly to the people pointing at him, and hesitated to move forward.

Helpless, Tianpeng had no choice but to turn around and walk to him, grab his hand and forcefully pull him in.

As he was walking, a stone suddenly flew from the crowd and hit the roller blind squarely on his forehead.

With a muffled groan, Roller Blind quickly covered his face with his sleeves.

"Kill him! Kill him!" someone shouted.

Countless stones were thrown at the roller blind.

"Kill him! Kill him!" Everyone waved their fists and shouted in unison, rushing towards the roller blinds.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Xuanzang quickly took three steps and two steps to block the rolling curtain.

In the chaos, there was a "bang" sound, and a stone hit Xuanzang's left shoulder heavily, followed immediately by a second, third...

The monkey on the roof suddenly stood up, tightened his grip on the golden cudgel and was about to attack, but suddenly he saw Canopy winking at him secretly, telling him not to move.

Gradually, the originally noisy scene calmed down a little. Those standing in the front row all looked embarrassed and avoided Xuanzang's gaze.

Xuanzang was seen clutching his chest, his throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of blood overflowed.

Suddenly, the whole scene became completely quiet.

Xuanzang frowned tightly, raised his head slightly and said: "Dear donors... If you can trust Xuanzang, please listen to Xuanzang's words."

Everyone looked at Xuanzang quietly.

After closing his eyes and finally regaining his composure, Xuanzang said softly: "Remember what the poor monk just said to you, everything. You must save others by yourself, and don't let anger blind your reason. Only by straightening out the reasons can you solve the problem. The problem is completely solved.”

Looking back at the shrunken curtain, Xuanzang continued: "It's better to follow the previous strategy. Let the poor monk talk to His Majesty first."

Everyone still looked at Xuanzang quietly.

Among the crowd, a few stones fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Xuanzang turned his head to the canopy and nodded.

Raising his head, Canpeng shouted to the monkey: "Come down, I have something to ask you."

"Looking for me? Why are you looking for me for such a thing?"

Tianpeng didn't answer, but the monkey quickly realized that Tianpeng was serious and nodded. Jumped off the roof.

The black bear spirit also jumped down. His huge body moved out. Even though I knew he meant no harm, it was still scary. For a moment, the people in the courtyard gave way.

Several people quickly entered the hall of the abandoned house. The black bear spirit guarded the door to prevent people from entering. He also threw two spells to cover the hall with air leakage on all sides to prevent their conversation from being disturbed by people outside. Hear it clearly.

Entered the hall. Roller Blind's face looked a little better, but he still looked out from time to time, with a look of panic on his face.

The monkey looked up and down the roller blind, patted Canopy's shoulder, and said: "As expected, he is really capable, and he is also a Taiyi Golden Immortal. But why are you looking for me? Wouldn’t it be over after you clean it up yourself?”

The roller blind looked at the monkey with some anxiety.

Tianpeng took a deep breath and said, "He is the curtain rolling general you have been looking for."

At this point, the monkey couldn't help but be stunned. He quickly turned his head and looked up and down the roller blind again.

Hundreds of years have passed, and the monkey has only seen the roller blind a few times. Moreover, the figure and appearance of the roller blind have undergone great changes. It must be difficult for the monkey to recognize it for a while. But with careful perception. I do feel that this breath is somewhat familiar.

After a while, the monkey asked with confusion: "Are you really a roller blind?"

Roller Blind nodded slightly.

"Then how come you came to be the king of the Wuji Kingdom?" Before the roller blind could answer, the monkey shook his head again, pointed at the roller blind and said word by word: "Come west with me, and you don't have to hide here and there anymore. After everything is over, whatever you want can be discussed. How about canceling the wanted order in heaven for you now?"

The roller blind looked at the monkey with some horror.

Canopy coughed twice and said, "I've already told him, it's no problem to go west, but you have to deal with the trouble he caused here first."

"Here..." Monkey looked back at the door.

This door is ajar. Due to the magic, the people outside the door looked at the door and it was pitch black, but the people inside the door looked outside and could clearly see the common people stretching their heads and looking around.

"Deal with them?"

"Yes, I can't solve it. Now there are uprisings all over the Wuji Kingdom and it's chaos. If you come..."

"How do you want to solve it? Kill him?"

Rolling the curtain whispered: "There are uprisings everywhere. I sent troops to suppress them and extinguished them here, but then there was another fire over there. It can never be extinguished..."

"That's because your soldiers are incompetent." Monkey chuckled and said, "It's easy to solve. I'll ask Lu Liuguai to call in the army later. Not to mention that there are fires everywhere, even if every civilian is a rebel, it can be solved. "

Tianpeng looked at the monkey meaningfully and said: "I thought you ruled a demon country as big as Huaguo Mountain and had some in-depth insights into these government affairs. The problem now is how to calm down the public anger. You were just such a demon in the first place. The king’s?”

"Otherwise, how can you do it? Do you want me to convince them one by one? I don't have the time." The monkey spread his hands and said: "Anyway, in the past in Huaguo Mountain, whoever made trouble dared to stumble me, I Just smoke whoever you want, it’s that simple.”

For a moment, the roller blinds and canopy were speechless. But in retrospect, that's exactly what the monkey did in the first place, and the effect was pretty good.

Maybe the positions of the two and the status of the king themselves are different after all.

After a moment of silence, Xuanzang said softly: "How about we let the poor monk make the decision on this matter?" (To be continued ~^~)
