The Monkey King

Under the shade of the tree, Agarwood, who had just returned to Xianyue Sanxing Cave, was tossing back and forth with great interest.

Qingxin just watched silently.

After a while, she raised her head and looked in the direction of Qianxin Hall.

The breeze blew by, and the trees blocking the front of Qianxin Hall were swaying slightly in front of them.

"Uncle Wukong is here." Yu Xuan, who was sitting across the table, reminded her softly.

"Which one is it?"

"The original one."

"Oh." Qingxin responded lightly and said nothing more. She just continued to lower her head and stare at Chenxiang quietly. The look in his eyes was as empty as being sucked into the abyss of memory.

…

In front of the Qitian Palace in the Shitu Kingdom, gifts of all sizes were piled up in the crowded square.

The six-eared macaque walked back and forth with the list of gifts, taking the trouble to count them, smiling from ear to ear.

"Do you think she likes this dress? It should be exactly the same as the Zixia fairy dress you mentioned, right?"

"Do you think she will like Ye Mingzhu?"

"The origin of this magic weapon is not simple..."

Listening to the chattering of the six-eared macaque, the goat spirit wanted to say: "Miss Fengchime is the disciple of Patriarch Subhuti and the beloved disciple of Taishang Laojun. She should not be short of these things." As a result. When the words came to my lips, they turned into: "As long as it's from you, the Great Sage, how can Miss Feng Chime not like it?"

That smile was very embarrassing, but it was selectively ignored by the six-eared macaque.

"real?"

"Of course it's true. When did I... deceive you, the Great Sage?"

"Yes, I think so too. Hehe, last time I sent Chenxiang back, even though I didn't say anything, I could see that she was happy. Come on, come on, let me order it from the beginning again. Don't miss anything. If you make her unhappy, none of you will have a good life!"

The goat spirit reminded carefully: "Great Sage... you have checked it three times."

"Huh? Already three times."

"The complete one has been done three times, and the individual sub-categories have been done five times."

"Uh... That's it." After thinking for a moment, the six-eared macaque waved his hand and said, "Okay, pick up the things, let's set off now!"

"promise!"

After giving the order, a large group of demon generals soon took on the task of porters, carrying all the large and small boxes on their shoulders, and set out in a mighty manner. From a distance, the team looked like a long dragon crossing the sky.

Seeing this scene, the demon kings who were left aside were all dumbfounded.

"Is this going to...welcome a bride?"

"No way? Didn't you just run away without looking back? Did you change your mind so quickly?"

"God knows, I don't follow him all day long. Besides, who can figure out the thoughts of our great sage?"

While several demon kings were discussing, Demon King Peng quietly distanced himself from the others, walked to the corner, and took out a jade slip from his body.

…

At this moment, in the Qianxin Hall, the monkey and Subhuti were facing each other silently. After eight hundred years of master and apprentice, now, when they sit together, there is only silence between them.

The sound of heavy breathing forced the atmosphere in the entire hall to an extremely tense state, as if if there was even a trace of fire, it would explode.

With his eyes slightly lowered, Subhuti looked meaningfully at the deep hole made by the monkey on the floor, and sat motionless, as if he had realized something. On the opposite side, the monkey's teeth were already clenching.

"What do you mean?"

Looking at the deep pit, Subhuti raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile whose authenticity could not be discerned. It looked like he was proud, but extremely bitter.

"What on earth do you mean!"

A palm hit the floor hard, and there was a loud "bang" sound, and the whole hall shook slightly. The monkey roared out: "Today, you must explain it clearly to me!"

Maintaining the forward leaning posture, the monkey slowly exhaled wisps of smoke from his slightly opened mouth, obviously in a state of anger.

Subhuti said calmly: "What do you want to make clear?"

"Tell me clearly what you have done over the years! Tell me clearly..." Gritting his teeth, the monkey stood up, looked down at Subhuti who was sitting cross-legged and said viciously: "Tell me clearly, why did you admit the six-eared macaque? !”

Hearing this, Subhuti calmed down a little and closed his eyes. After a while, he opened it again, but he still just stared at the empty floor, sighing nonchalantly: "As a teacher, did you do something wrong?"

"Is that right?" Monkey's eyes widened.

"Isn't it right? He just has less memory than you. Could it be that he is not Sun Wukong?" Looking up, Subhuti's eyes finally met the monkey. The expression on that face did not change at all from beginning to end, like a cold statue.

At this glance, the monkey was stunned. After a moment, he laughed slowly. It was a bitter smile with a complicated taste.

Step by step back, after a brief laugh, he whispered: "Yes, he is Sun Wukong. Then I dare to ask the master, who am I?"

Subhuti did not answer, but looked at the monkey quietly. At that moment, everything in the hall seemed to be frozen, without any sound.

The two of them just faced each other. The monkey's gaze already seemed to tear Subhuti into pieces on the spot. However, Subhuti still maintained his cold attitude and remained silent.

Looking at Subhuti blankly, the monkey repeated the question just now: "May I ask Master, who am I?"

"He is Sun Wukong, and so are you." Avoiding the monkey's gaze, Subhuti lowered his eyes and said calmly: "You are...two sides of one body."

"Two sides of one body, two sides of one body, two sides of one body. Hahahaha!" The eyes that were looking at Subhuti were already covered with bloodshot eyes, and the monkey stepped back step by step, smiling. There was gradually a hint of madness in the smile: "It's been eight hundred years, do you know why I didn't listen to the Eighth Senior Brother's advice and insisted on leaving Xianyue Sanxing Cave? Why do I have to live alone outside, do you know?"

Subhuti slowly raised his head and looked at the monkey in astonishment.

"Because, I know you and I are not of the same mind. I know you want to use me, maybe... you won't harm me, but for your purpose, you will definitely harm Que'er. Otherwise, why don't you tell me the truth? "

Holding his chest, Monkey held back his breath and roared: "Because you know that once I know the truth, I will never listen to you——!"

This roar contained surging spiritual power and swept out violently. For a moment, it seemed as if the world was shaking slightly.

The birds in the mountains were frightened and flew into the sky.

Everyone in Xianyue Sanxing Cave, including Qingxin, stopped moving and stared blankly in the direction of Qianxin Hall.

It was as if the whole world was holding its breath and listening.

Inside the temple, the monkey panted slightly and glared at Subhuti. Every hair on the body stood up, and the fangs in the slightly opened mouth were even more vaguely visible.

This is the anger that has been accumulated for eight hundred years...

"You have been using me, you used me to rebel against heaven, and used me to break Laojun's way of heaven, just to build momentum for Jin Chanzi's journey to the west! You know what will happen to me if I go down this road, what will I lose? , however, you still pressed me onto your gambling table without hesitation and pushed me into the abyss!"

"I know all this, I've always known it, I just don't want to think about it or ask about it!" Monkey gritted his teeth, and almost every word he said was a hoarse roar. Every word spread throughout Xianyue Sanxing Cave, and every Taoist disciple, including Qingxin, Yu Yi, and Yuxuan, heard it clearly.

"I am still willing to call you master, and I still obey your wishes and accompany Xuanzang on his journey to the west! Although I have been holding back my anger for a long time, I have thought about killing Tathagata and Laojun, but I have never thought about it. kill you!"

"Because... because I have not forgotten that it was you who opened that door and let me walk in! Although you didn't teach me anything, you were always my master. Once a teacher, always a father! Although, you are always there They are all using me, but after all...I have always comforted myself, at least, you don't really want me to die, you are just for your...your purpose! But today...hehehehe...between him and me, But you can only live once! You should know this well!"

With his mouth slightly open, the dry laughter spread to every corner of the hall. What started as dry laughter turned into laughter, into wild laughter, and finally, into a series of heartbreaking coughs.

The figure was already shaky, as if it was about to be swallowed up by the anger.

From the beginning to the end, Subhuti just stared at the monkey quietly with no expression on his face. Staring at his face that gradually became ferocious.

…

Listening to the monkey's roar, the entire Xianyue Sanxing Cave was silent, leaving only the whistling of the wind.

…

The violent coughing gradually subsided.

After a short silence, the monkey panted heavily, looked at Subhuti, and said with a slight trembling: "Why did Qingxin get involved with him? I personally sent her back. Without your acquiescence, Qingxin would have never been able to follow her. He got mixed up together. Hehehehe... Do you still remember my nine senior brothers? Now that you have recognized him, is it true that I will be the one swallowed up by the catastrophe in the future? You said...!"

At this moment, even Subhuti couldn't help but be stunned. It was like there was deathly silence in the hall.

…

In the courtyard, Qingxin lowered her head, her hands tightly holding the hem of her skirt, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

On the balcony, Lao Jun stroked his long beard and laughed slowly: "Old Bodhi, you too have today. It's true... there is reincarnation in the way of heaven. Hahahaha."

…

At this moment, not far from Xianyue Sanxing Cave, the six-eared macaque was hovering in mid-air with a group of his subordinates, listening quietly. The corner of his mouth slowly raised into a smile. (To be continued ~^~)
