City: The Dragon King Returning from Journey to the West

Chapter 108 Something is wrong with this monkey

East China Sea Dragon Palace.

Monkey King sits high on the dragon chair, with his legs crossed, holding all kinds of mountain and fairy fruits in his hands, eating and throwing them away.

A lot of peels and shells quickly piled up on the ground, making it a mess.

On the side, the Dragon King of the East China Sea carefully accompanied the smiling face.

Sun Wukong was full, patted his stomach with satisfaction and said: "That's right, old Dragon King, it is said that the Dragon Palace is rich all over the world. These melons and fruits taste good. I am very happy to eat them. Prepare more for me. I will bring them back to Monkey Monkey." Grandchildren eat!"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea laughed and said, "It's Xiaolong's honor that the Great Sage likes it. I'll arrange people to prepare it right now. Please wait a moment, Great Sage."

Sun Wukong waved his hands and urged: "Go quickly, the more the better."

The Dragon King of the East China Sea called Prime Minister Gui and told him to hurry up and prepare.

Afterwards, the Dragon King of the East China Sea carefully said: "The great sage has now corrected the evil and returned to the righteous, and protected the Tang monk to learn the scriptures. In the future, he will surely become a righteous fruit. Xiaolong congratulates the great sage first."

Sun Wukong lay lazily on the dragon chair, lifted his legs up to the old man, curled his lips and said: "Tang Monk has no fart skills, and he talks a lot of nonsense. I just killed a few thieves, and they kept talking non-stop, thinking I, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, have never suffered such anger. I am going to go back to Huaguo Mountain in style, whoever wants to go to the west will go, I will not suffer from that anger."

The Dragon King of the East China Sea persuaded Sun Wukong with the story of Huang Shigong's third test of Zhang Liang in the Han Dynasty, saying: "Great Sage, if you don't protect Tang Monk and don't teach him, you will end up as a demon fairy. Don't think about it. The Great Sage can't be free, misunderstood It's a future."

Sun Wukong laughed: "Future, what kind of future? To be a stupid monk, knocking on wooden fish, eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha every day is not comfortable, is the future? Or, if you are obedient, giving a Buddha position is the future? But this is not what I want."

"What I want is to be free, unfettered, and unaffected. The vast sky allows me to soar; the vast earth allows me to wander. Storms, lightning, brilliant rainbows, and endless mysteries allow me to explore!"

"This this……"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea is speechless, this Monkey King has been suppressed for 500 years, how come he still looks rebellious.

Didn't it mean that his wildness is almost gone, and he only needs to do more ideological work to make him firm in his heart to the Buddha and sincerely escort Tang Monk to learn scriptures?

But this monkey seems to have a lot of ideas.

Sun Wukong looked at the embarrassing Dragon King of the East China Sea, and secretly smiled in his heart, all of this was exactly the same as what Li Yu wrote in his book.

"Sure enough, it's all arranged."

"In that case, I'll play with you guys."

Sun Wukong was extremely angry.

His face was full of a relaxed and incomparable smile.

Not long after, Prime Minister Gui brought a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and brought in large and small packages of various fairy melons and fruits.

Seeing this, Monkey King was careful, and with a wave of his hand, he took all the melons and fruits into the inner world.

"Thank you, old Dragon King, come to have tea another day, and my grandson will go."

As Monkey King said, he jumped into the air.

Ahead, an auspicious cloud floated quickly.

Guanyin Bodhisattva sits on the lotus platform.

"Bodhisattva, why don't you serve the Buddha in Lingshan, what are you doing here?" Monkey King preemptively said.

Guanyin Bodhisattva was a little perplexed, and said in a deep voice: "Wukong, you promised me to protect Tang Seng to learn scriptures, why did you abandon your master and run around? If Tang Seng has any problems, I will take you as a question."

Monkey King laughed and said: "Bodhisattva, don't panic, I have suffered for hundreds of years in Liangjie Mountain, and the iron juice and copper water have corroded my intestines. Let me relax first, find old friends to catch up, eat and drink well, and come back Huaguoshan bid farewell to monkeys and grandchildren, bid farewell to the past, and it is not too late to go to the future, Bodhisattva, do you think so?"

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva was extremely uncomfortable hearing this, frowned and said: "You monkey head, why are you so glib? You can't delay for half a day to learn the scriptures, so go back to Tang Seng quickly, and protect him to go west with peace of mind. Only when he realizes Buddhahood early is the right way." Since you made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, Huaguo Mountain was surrendered by the Heavenly Court, those monster soldiers and generals were scattered and defeated, the monkeys were killed and injured, and Huaguo Mountain has long been in ruins, what are you going back for?"

"Ah, ah, ah..."

Sun Wukong yelled, tears streaming down his face, and fell from the clouds to the ground, kicking up smoke and dust all over the sky.

Guanyin Bodhisattva was stunned: "What's the matter with you?"

"My heart aches, Bodhisattva, so many monkey grandchildren, once they die, many of them are good monkeys. They have never done evil, nor killed! Just died like this. Is there any king law in this world? Retribution?"

Monkey King wept bitterly and wailed, as if mourning his concubine.

Guanyin Bodhisattva was dumbfounded, what's the matter with this monkey, does it have such deep feelings for those wild monkeys?
"Okay, birth, old age, sickness and death are all determined by God. The cause of the past life, the result of the future life, and the cycle of cause and effect are all retribution. The king follows the way of heaven, nothing more than this!"

"No, monkeys are monkeys. There is no past life or present life. I have eliminated their death status, how can they still die?"

Sun Wukong jumped up suddenly, "Bodhisattva, you go back first, I will go to the underworld to find out, my monkeys and grandchildren have no records of death, and now they are dead, where can I find them, I have to give me an explanation! "

Guanyin Bodhisattva was speechless, what is this all about, this monkey is just making trouble out of nothing, "What do you want to say?"

Sun Wukong looked at the gloomy face of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and the golden wheel of merit and virtue spinning slowly behind his head, and said with righteous indignation: "I don't care, this matter can't be left alone, otherwise how can I escort Tang Seng to learn scriptures with peace of mind? Someone has to help me Let me explain it, or I will go to the sky and ask the old Jade Emperor!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva's head hurts a little, and this monkey is just messing around.

But now learning from the scriptures is a big deal, and other things are trivial.

Those monkeys are not helpless.

"Okay, Wukong, I will tell the Buddha about this matter, and I will give you an explanation. You can't have two minds, and you can safely escort Tang Monk to learn the scriptures, and your merits and virtues will be completed as soon as possible!"

Sun Wukong stared at Guanyin Bodhisattva and said: "Bodhisattva, you said this, I will look for you in the future, my hundred and eight thousand monkey grandsons..."

"Stop croaking again, hurry up and protect your master, I will explain this to you." Guanyin Bodhisattva said helplessly.

This monkey didn't think so much before, how come it has completely changed into a monkey after getting out of trouble.

"Okay, it's fine for the Bodhisattva to accept his account, and the old grandson will go."

As Monkey King said, a somersault cloud disappeared without a trace.

Guanyin Bodhisattva frowned, then descended to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, and asked the Dragon King of the East China Sea what Monkey King had done.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea said with a sad face, "Bodhisattva, Xiaolong persuaded the monkey according to his instructions, but his words and deeds did not follow common sense, and he spoke wild and rebellious words. He is still wild."

Guanyin Bodhisattva listened to the Dragon King of the East China Sea describe Sun Wukong's words and deeds in detail, and frowned even tighter. There is something wrong with this monkey!
