Time Against Heaven

Chapter 456 Fear of the True and False Monkey King Sun Wukong ()

After Sun Wukong left Tang Seng, he did not go back to Huaguo Mountain immediately, but went directly to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea to find Guanyin Bodhisattva.

The last time he was driven away by Tang Seng, he returned to Huaguo Mountain with the golden hoop, and he had already lost face in front of the monkeys. This time he was driven back again, and he could no longer go back with the golden hoop.

The last time it was Tang Seng who wronged him, this time it was also Tang Seng's fault. Anyway, Sun Wukong definitely didn't think he was wrong. Since he couldn't blame him, and the golden hoop came from Guanyin Bodhisattva, he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to take his golden hoop away.

Seeing Guanyin Bodhisattva, Monkey King first complained, saying that Tang Monk was wrong and insisted on driving himself away.

I thought Guanyin Bodhisattva would understand me, at least I couldn't tell why I was wrong.

"It's wrong for Tang Monk to drive you away, but you shouldn't just walk away!" Guanyin Bodhisattva has full authority to arrange the matter of pilgrimage to the West, and has been paying attention to the development of pilgrimage to the West, and has long been aware of it. Monkey King came What is the purpose of the purple bamboo forest, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has long known.

Going to the west to learn scriptures is related to the great prosperity of Buddhism. It is the biggest matter of Buddhism and must be achieved. Since Sun Wukong is the guardian of Buddhism, it is Sun Wukong's mission to protect Tang monks from the west to learn Buddhist scriptures and open up the great prosperity of Buddhism.

So, Monkey King doesn't want to go to the West to learn scriptures, is it possible?Not to mention that Guanyin Bodhisattva did not agree, the entire Buddhist sect would not agree.

Sun Wukong was very smart, and he heard the meaning implied in Guanyin Bodhisattva's words. He paused, and immediately changed his way of saying: "My grandson doesn't want to leave, but the old monk is determined to drive my grandson away. They even tried to threaten them by chanting a magic spell."

"This is all your fault, Bodhisattva. You have to wear this mantra. If there is no such mantra, no matter what the old monk says, I will not leave. I will continue to protect the old monk and learn from the West. So I beg the Bodhisattva to help me." I'll take this golden hoop away." He didn't even call him master, he just called 'Old Monk', thinking that he really didn't regard Tang Seng as his master anymore.

Although Sun Wukong's words are beating around the bush, everyone can understand the meaning, that is, he wants to use the removal of the golden hoop as a bargaining chip to continue protecting Tang Seng from the West to learn scriptures.

How could Guanyin Bodhisattva believe in Sun Wukong? Besides, Sun Wukong is just a peak of Daluo Jinxian. There are many Buddhist methods to make Sun Wukong honest, and Sun Wukong is not qualified to negotiate conditions.

Guanyin Bodhisattva only smiled lightly and said, "You want to go to this golden hoop? It's not yet time."

Not in time?
Monkey King is helpless, how could he not hear it, the so-called not in time, isn't it just that he didn't agree to pick it for him.With this golden hoop on his head, when he chanted the mantra tightly, he felt worse than death, and he still wanted to continue to pinch him.

"Bodhisattva, I don't want Tang Monk to go to the west to learn scriptures now, and this golden hoop is useless, so you can take it off for me." Monkey King continued to plead unwillingly.

If you say how high-spirited Sun Wukong was when he was making troubles in the Heavenly Palace, how humble and embarrassing he is now kneeling in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva and constantly begging to take off the golden hoop.

Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled meaningfully: "Wukong, don't worry, when you are young, someone will come to ask you to continue to protect the Tang monk to learn scriptures from the west."

Sun Wukong froze for a moment, but didn't quite understand.

Will someone come to invite him later?Ask him to protect Tang Monk to continue learning scriptures from the West?

Sun Wukong had no choice but to sigh softly in his heart, well, as long as Tang Seng took the initiative to ask him to go back, he will reluctantly go back and continue to protect Tang Seng to learn scriptures from the west, anyway, this is not his fault, it is impossible for him to go back by himself.

Sun Wukong thought that he could be very tough, and when someone came later, he would give him face and let him have a step down. He even thought about it. After returning, if Tang Seng didn't apologize to him, he would never pay attention to Tang Seng.

……

On Tang Seng's side, not long after Monkey King left, the six-eared macaque took advantage of Zhu Bajie's going out to beg for alms, and when Drifting went to fetch water nearby, he suddenly appeared in front of Tang Seng and promised to escort Tang Seng to the west to learn scriptures.

Regardless of his appearance, the six-eared macaque is dressed in the same way as Monkey King. Tang Seng thought it was Monkey King, so naturally he didn't have a good face. He didn't have to chase Monkey King away. It's not that you can't forgive Monkey King again.

The temperament of the six-eared macaque is just like that of Monkey King who was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain, even worse. Besides, he pretended to be Monkey King, and he did not really want to replace Monkey King to protect Tang Monk from the West. It was bad, and they started arguing within a few words.

The six-eared macaque suddenly jumped up, knocked Tang Seng unconscious to the ground, and took all the luggage that Tang Seng had taken to learn Buddhist scriptures and went away.

When Zhu Bajie and Drifting came back, they saw Tang Seng fainted on the ground and rushed to treat him.

Tang Seng woke up and said that Sun Wukong had beaten him, and also took away all the luggage for the Buddhist scriptures.

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he saw that the luggage was gone, he couldn't help secretly happy, this is a good thing, if you can't get the luggage back, then you don't need to go to the West to learn the scriptures?

It was Drifting who devoted himself to studying scriptures in the west, and was really anxious when he heard that his luggage was gone.

"Master, don't worry, it's useless for the eldest brother to take the luggage for the Buddhist scriptures. I'll go to Huaguo Mountain to find him and get it back." Drifting thinks that it's not impossible to get the luggage back directly. Besides, if Monkey King is really determined If he wishes to return it, then he can also go to the Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea, and it will not be difficult to get his luggage back in the end.

Tang Seng nodded: "Then go and come back quickly."

Drifting rushed to Huaguo Mountain at his fastest speed.

When I came to Huaguo Mountain, I saw a six-eared macaque pretending to be the Monkey King. Naturally, Drifting couldn't tell the six-eared macaque from the Monkey King. He thought it was the Monkey King and asked the six-eared macaque for his luggage.

The six-eared macaque snatched Tang Seng's luggage to Huaguo Mountain, but he didn't let Drifting take it back just because Drifting said something nice.

Every two sentences, the two clashed, and Drifting was beaten out of Huaguo Mountain.

Leaving Huaguo Mountain, Drifting Immediately went to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea to find Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Sun Wukong has been waiting for someone from Guanyin Bodhisattva to invite him back, and he was quite happy when he heard that the boy came to report that the Drifting Monk had come.

Compared with Zhu Bajie, Sun Wukong obviously has a better relationship with Drifting Monk, because Drifting Monk would always say a few good words for Sun Wukong when Tang Seng wronged Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong thought Drifting was here to invite him back, so he greeted Drifting happily, but when Drifting saw him, he accused himself of hurting his master, and even took away the scriptures to salute.

"Brother Sha, what are you talking about? When did I hurt Master and take away the luggage? I came to Guanyin Bodhisattva after I left Master, and I never left." Monkey King didn't know why.

The Drifting Monk was stunned for a moment, and asked a little uncertainly, "Are you really with Guanyin Bodhisattva all this time?"

"If you don't believe it, you can ask the Bodhisattva if it is true." Monkey King said.
