The Monkey King

The morning sun rises slowly, and its dazzling light falls on the world.

After the violent turmoil, the river is receding bit by bit, and the land that was originally soaked by the river is gradually resurfacing.

After a few days of tossing, the Blackwater River matter finally came to an end. As the river calmed down, gradually, the canopy was finally able to unlock the shield.

Xuanzang and Xiaobailong squatted beside Miao Jie and carefully cleaned his wounds.

"Master Xuanzang...I'm sorry..."

Xuanzang shook his head slowly, still cleaning his wounds carefully.

Looking at this look, he is probably ready to forgive Miao Jie again. This made the monkey slightly unhappy.

However, there is nothing we can do.

After all, the protagonist of this journey to the west is Xuanzang, and we have to rely on him to prove the truth. Xuanzang's words earlier made Monkey stunned for a moment.

"How can you attain enlightenment if you don't have kind thoughts?"

Yes, if the Tao cannot be realized, what is the meaning of this journey.

Okay, look at Miao Jie's half-dead look. She is just a little fish and shrimp anyway. Xuanzang can protect him if he wants to. Next, keep an eye on him. Once he's almost recovered, just drive him away.

However, now it seems that in addition to this half-dead one, there is also a completely dead one to deal with.

Thinking about it, the monkey stretched out his hands to straighten his wet hair and looked sideways at the motionless golden body lying on the ground. But just as he was about to speak, he was stunned.

"Great Sage, what's wrong?" asked the black bear spirit on the side.

The monkey didn't answer. He frowned and looked towards the upper reaches of the Blackwater River.

From a distance, everyone saw something flying slowly towards here.

"Qingxin? What is she here for?"

…

Bagua slowly lowered its altitude and flew across the river.

In the twilight, the little crystals on the river pass by it, so gorgeous.

Agarwood closed her eyes. Holding Qing Xin's hand tightly.

"Your master is right in front."

"My master?" Chen Xiang was startled and quickly opened his eyes and looked at Qing Xin.

"That's the monkey, um... Sun Wukong, have you heard of it?"

Chenxiang nodded quickly: "I heard Mr. Shu said that he was so powerful that he made trouble in the Heavenly Palace and no one could defeat him! He was finally restrained by Tathagata Buddha."

"That's him. What if he doesn't accept you? Then I will accept you as my disciple. With your qualifications, if he is willing to accept you, you will be able to achieve something very soon. After all, no matter what kind of elixir is there in the three realms, He can get medicine. Of course, I can get it too."

"Then...will he accept it?" Chen Xiang asked cautiously.

Qingxin nodded her chin and thought for a moment, then said: "Logically speaking, he won't accept it. When he sees the hairpin, he should go to Huashan immediately."

Saying that, Qingxin smiled lightly.

The Bagua rotated and slowly fell to the river beach.

Everyone else watched silently.

The monkey stepped forward, leaning on the golden hoop.

He looked at Qingxin, then at Chenxiang, and lazily picked out his ears and said, "Why are you here? What a coincidence. You came right after we finished fighting. You came at the right time."

"I've been here a long time ago." Qingxin stood up from the Bagua, looked at the monkey with an expressionless face, and jumped off the Bagua. Then he turned around and hugged Chenxiang down, and said softly: "I'm not here, who do you think helped you stop the water upstream?"

"You stopped the water upstream?"

"Don't you feel it?"

The monkey rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Sorry, I really don't feel anything."

Turning his head, Monkey pointed at the others and asked, "Hey, do you feel it?"

Everyone else remained silent. Just looked at the two of them silently.

Monkey showed a rogue face, spread his hands and said: "You saw it, no one felt it. I don't know if I specifically found this opportunity to ask for credit. I'm really sorry that I didn't get it."

Upon saying this, Qingxin's face suddenly turned red.

Chenxiang looked up at Qingxin with horror on her face.

After glaring at the monkey for a long time, Qingxin gritted her teeth, took two deep breaths and said, "I'm not here to talk nonsense with you."

As she spoke, she took out the hairpin from her waist and threw it towards the monkey.

After steadily taking the hairpin thrown by Qingxin, the monkey spread his hands and looked at it expressionlessly.

At this glance, the monkey's expression suddenly froze.

How could he not recognize this hairpin?

Qingxin had no beef with Guanjiangkou. On the contrary, she seemed to have some friendship with Nantianmen. It is not impossible to find some connections and find some ways to meet Yang Chan. There is nothing surprising about getting this hairpin.

But what does this girl mean when she comes to see him with a hairpin?

Seeing that the monkey had a strange expression, Qingxin immediately raised his head proudly.

After a short silence, the monkey put away the hairpin with a normal expression and said softly: "What do you mean?"

"I was asked to bring you a message."

"What words?"

Qingxin pushed Chenxiang forward and said word by word: "The Third Holy Mother said that you should accept him as your disciple. In the future, he can split Huashan Mountain and rescue the Third Holy Mother."

"Split... Huashan?" Upon saying this, the monkey's breathing suddenly became rapid.

Monkey naturally understands what Yang Chan means. But can he go now?

If he could go, why is he still here?

Even if he left the Five Elements Mountain, he did not escape these three realms. As long as Tathagata Buddha exists, it is as if there is a sword hanging above his head.

Not to mention that splitting Huashan Mountain to save Yang Chan was just to restore the cultivation of heaven. Monkey said it was unnecessary, but in fact he didn't dare to do it?

Any excessive behavior may give Buddhism an excuse. Any excuse may cause casualties to those around you. The disaster that happened more than 600 years ago, the helpless pain, no matter what, Monkey doesn't want to experience it again.

Should we pick Yang Chan out at this time and let her bear this risk with him?

The monkey is unwilling and dare not.

Blinking his eyes, the monkey said softly: "You left the hairpin to me. You can take this child back. I won't accept any apprentices."

"Then what?"

"What then?"

"What then?"

For a moment, their eyes met, and the two people froze at a distance of three feet.

Chen Xiang raised her head and opened her eyes wide, looking back and forth between them.

The people around him also watched silently.

A breeze passed by, stirring up the dust on the surface.

Qingxin frowned slightly: "Aren't you going to do something?"

"Do I need to report to you what I did?"

Qingxin suddenly became furious and snorted: "Can you speak properly?"

"I didn't talk well?" Monkey snorted coldly: "To be precise, it's not that I didn't talk well, but that I didn't want to talk to you at all. You heard me clearly, I hate you very much, I hate you very much , I hope you go away and don’t get involved in anything related to me. If you were not my junior sister, if it wasn’t for the old man’s sake, I would have killed you long ago. Maybe it’s not just as simple as killing you. Yes, you don’t have to worry about Yang Chan and I’s affairs. No matter whether you have good intentions or bad intentions, you don’t have to worry about it. This is our private matter and it’s not your turn to worry about it. Do you understand?”

In one breath, the monkey said a long paragraph.

After saying this, Qingxin was completely stunned.

She opened her eyes slightly and looked at the monkey in astonishment.

After saying that, the monkey raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, turned around and dragged the golden hoop towards the place where he was sitting, no longer talking to Qingxin.

At this time, even Xuanzang on the side quietly looked sideways at Qingxin.

Qingxin looked at the monkey blankly, tears already filling her eyes.

"There's no point in crying." Monkey turned his face away and sighed leisurely: "Those who hate me will look even more hateful if they shed tears."

Suddenly, tears fell down.

Chenxiang looked around helplessly. He carefully pulled Qing Xin's skirt.

"Sister...don't cry."

Qingxin reached out and touched his little head. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but he couldn't smile.

After a while, she took a deep breath, blinked her eyes and said, "It's okay, Chenxiang, let's go."

Agarwood?

The monkey's ears suddenly trembled slightly, and he quickly turned around with his eyes widened.

Qingxin glared at Monkey from a distance and hugged Chenxiang to Bagua.

Immediately afterwards, he also jumped on the Bagua, and with a burst of spiritual power, he flew away.

From the beginning to the end, the monkey didn't say anything to stop him, but his eyes grew wider and wider.

As soon as Qingxin left, everyone immediately became active.

Xiao Bailong walked to the monkey and sat down. He patted the monkey on the shoulder and said, "Why does this conversation smell so gunpowder? Great Sage, I think you two must have had a grudge in your previous life."

"Did she just call that kid Chenxiang?"

"What?"

Monkey turned his face sideways and asked very seriously: "Did she just call the child Chenxiang?"

Xiao Bailong thought for a moment, scratched his head and said, "It seems so. I can't hear you clearly. What's wrong?"

The black bear spirit on the side interjected: "It's Chenxiang, that's right. Great Sage, I heard it very clearly."

Hearing this, the corners of Monkey's mouth suddenly twitched. (To be continued ~^~)
