After taking a bath in a small stream, Sun Wukong changed into Tang Sanzang's monk robe. He looked much more pleasing to the eye. Although it was a little nondescript, it was still bearable. Tang Sanzang could finally accept the embrace of his eldest disciple.
Sun Wukong's excitement soon disappeared, because he had to deal with the endless questions of Tang Sanzang,"
"Wukong, you've been trapped under the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years. What have you been eating?”
"The Mountain God and Earth God will give me something to eat every day. Occasionally, the cowherd boy will pick some fruits for me to eat.”
"Oh, Wukong, you've been suppressed for 500 years. Don't you need to relieve yourself?”
"…Master, can you not answer this question?”
"Alright, then I'll ask another question. I heard that you have a scandal with Zixia Fairy in the sky. Is it true?”
"No, it's a rumor. It's completely a rumor!”
"I see. Disciple, aren't you called the Monkey King? How many Monkey Kings are there in the Flowerfruit Mountain?”
“……”
"Right, I heard…"
"Yes, Master, I'll go and scout the way!”
Sun Wukong couldn't stand it anymore and quickly rode his cloud to scout ahead. Tang Sanzang was left laughing. This move was much more useful than the Golden Hoop Incantation.
Not long after, Sun Wukong came down from the cloud with a tiger in tow. He smiled at Tang Sanzang and said,""Master, this beast was blocking the way in front and was killed by me. We'll have something good to eat tonight!”
Tang Sanzang looked at the poor tiger and said,""That's right, Wukong. When you peel off its skin and pull out its tendons, I'll sew a leather skirt for you. I guarantee that you'll be awe-inspiring! Oh right, don't throw the tiger bones away. They are good medicinal herbs. En, also, leave that tiger penis and the others for me to eat…"
Sun Wukong laughed and said," Master is really open-minded. I'll do it now!"”
After dinner, Sun Wukong burped and said,""I haven't eaten so much in a long time! Master, I didn't expect you to eat meat. Aren't you afraid that Bodhisattva will blame you?”
Tang Sanzang said as he shaved his teeth,""Wukong, that's why I said that you're not good enough. What do we Buddhists cultivate? It was the heart! As long as you have Buddha in your heart, why should you care about what we do? Didn't you hear that wine and meat had passed through the intestines? The Buddha left a saying in his heart. Buddha wants us to put down the killing intent and greed in our hearts. If we only look at the surface, it will be a dogmatic mistake..."
Sun Wukong was naturally confused,"Master is truly an accomplished monk. That's true. Master's body is mortal. It's definitely not enough to just be a vegetarian along the way to the west!”
Tang Sanzang chuckled." That's right. It's good that you've thought it through. We hold the hope of hundreds of millions of people in the Great Tang. It would be a great sin if we couldn't obtain the true scripture!"”
He suddenly thought of something and asked Sun Wukong,""Wukong, just now I saw that you rode the Somersault Cloud for dozens of miles in the blink of an eye. Can you bring me along?”
Sun Wukong thought about it and said,"That's fine."”
The more Tang Sanzang thought about it, the more excited he became.”
Sun Wukong complied and rode the Somersault Cloud, bringing Tang Sanzang to the sky.
Tang Zhong in Tang Sanzang's body had taken a plane before, but it was his first time flying on a cloud. The night wind blew, the air was fresh, and the stars in the sky shone on the mountains and rivers. From above, it looked unusually magnificent. Tang Sanzang was so excited that he cried out.
However, the good scene did not last long. The starlight was instantly blocked by the dark clouds, and a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down from the dark clouds. Fortunately, Sun Wukong reacted in time and blocked the lightning with his Jingu Staff. If he followed the trajectory of the lightning, even if he did not hit Tang Sanzang, he would have shattered the Somersault Cloud under him.
Sun Wukong felt a tingling sensation in his hand. Who asked his iron rod to be a good conductor of electricity? Wukong was furious. He raised his head and shouted,"Thunder God and Lightning Mother, come out. Don't you even recognize Old Sun?”
Two figures appeared in the dark clouds. The Thunder God and Lightning Mother looked similar. They both had bird faces and a pair of wings on their backs. The Thunder God said from the clouds,""Great Sage, we have been ordered by Rulai to monitor Tang Sanzang's westward journey. He is only allowed to walk on land and is not allowed to cheat!”
"Tathagata again!" Sun Wukong's anger toward Tathagata did not seem to have subsided. He scolded," Why is Tathagata so nosy!”
Tang Sanzang turned around from the lightning and asked curiously,""Thunder God and Lightning Mother, I only know that you are under the control of the celestial heavens, when did you start listening to the western paradise?”
It turned out that the celestial heavens and the western paradise belonged to different systems. The celestial heavens was the center of Taoism, while the western paradise was the center of Buddhism. Although the two factions had a good relationship, it was not to the extent that the celestial heavens would listen to the western paradise.
Electrolady shook her head slightly and said," You don't know. Ever since the Great Sage wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace last time and was subdued by Rulai, who was invited by the Jade Emperor, the forces of the Western Heaven began to enter our Heavenly Palace. Rulai's magic power was too strong. The Jade Emperor had no choice but to let him be. The Tathagata has ordered that only Tang Sanzang is allowed to walk to the Western Paradise with his feet on the ground. He is not allowed to go there with his mana. The Jade Emperor has given this task to the two of us. I'm really sorry for what happened just now!”She apologized helplessly.
Thunderlord also revealed a helpless expression and said,""Our magic power is weak and we are only following orders from above. We hope that Great Sage and Master Sanzang can cooperate.”
Tang Sanzang rolled his eyes. It turned out that there was a conflict between Buddhism and Taoism. Now that Buddhism was powerful, the Heavenly Court could only listen to Tathagata. Tang Sanzang laughed and said,"This is the old saying: It's easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away! Was Guan Yin Bodhisattva sent by Buddha to monitor you?”
Electrolady nodded and whispered," Although Buddha Tathagata doesn't interfere with the internal affairs of our Heavenly Court, he has sent four Bodhisattvas, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, Ksitigarbha, and Guanyin, to stay in our Heavenly Court. They have set up a dojo and their influence is growing day by day. Our Heavenly Court generals are also very dissatisfied!”
Tang Sanzang nodded and said," Since the Thunder God and Lightning Mother are acting on orders, we won't make things difficult for you. Wukong, it seems that you caused a lot of trouble when you wreaked havoc in Heaven!" Let's go down!"
Sun Wukong didn't say anything and lowered his cloud. "Thunder God, Lightning Mother, you can go now. This poor monk will not ride the Somersault Cloud again!" Tang Sanzang shouted towards the sky.”
"Thank you, Master Sanzang. If you have any instructions in the future, we will die for you!" Thunderlord and Thundermother said gratefully.”With that, he rode away on the dark clouds.
Sun Wukong said angrily,"This stinky Rulai, he wants to go against me in everything." And that Jade Emperor has become someone else's puppet. If I had known earlier, I would have been better off being the puppet!”
"Wukong, you can't say that," Tang Sanzang said with a smile."We still need their help to get the scriptures!"”He looked up at the sky and then at the west. This game was really fun!
