Looking at Huang Mei, who still hadn't recovered from her previous sadness, and Lu Xiaoqian, who was already scared out of her wits, Qin Fan could only laugh.
In fact, Qin Fan really didn't lie to Huang Mei. The entire Journey to the West was really a conspiracy, a scam that was full of deception from beginning to end.
Journey to the West was just a plot laid out by Tathagata for the past 500 years. His intention was to let his eldest disciple, the Golden Cicada, quickly become a positive fruit. Tang Sanzang's status was not as good as Guanyin Samantabhadra. Even if he cultivated for another 1,000 years, he would not be able to surpass them. If he succeeded in learning the scriptures, he would be conferred the title of Buddha. The status of Buddha was higher than Bodhisattva. Therefore, when Sun Wukong was suppressed in the Five Elements Mountain 500 years ago, he began to plan.
First, he deliberately demoted Tang Sanzang to the mortal world and let him release Sun Wukong after 10 lifetimes (about 500 years). This way, he and Sun Wukong would have a master and disciple status (otherwise, Sun Wukong would recognize a mortal as his master). At the same time, according to Sun Wukong's ability and qualifications, he should be the last to be conferred the title of Buddha. Since Sun Wukong was conferred the title of Buddha, Tang Sanzang, as his master, should also be conferred the title of Buddha.
Learning from the scriptures was a shortcut, and it would be a positive result in fourteen years.(Compared to the other immortals, Nezha, who had cultivated for almost 1800 years, was only a military level. Laojun's disciples had cultivated for almost 1000 years and were still burning fires.) What was Buddha? He was equivalent to a member of the Political Bureau. The West Sea Dragon King was actually a fleet commander, and his son, Little White Dragon, was only a regimental commander. After learning from the scriptures, he became a member of the Central Committee.
Sun Wukong was quite smart and could see the mystery at a glance. He knew that learning the scriptures was a process. Fighting the demons was just a show to deliberately make the process so difficult.
Monsters were actually all afraid of Sun Wukong. It seemed that many of them were helpless against him. Back then, all the Heavenly Mountain Immortals in the Havoc Temple were no match for him. On the way to obtain the scriptures, any disciple of an immortal, or even the driver, could torture him to death. He also knew that these monsters all had owners. After killing them, it would be difficult to talk to them.
Even the little white dragon could see this. For example, the monster in the Black River was the cousin of the little white dragon. Its magic power should not be as strong as the little white dragon. The little white dragon's ability was even stronger than his own. He already knew who would appear in the end anyway, so why should I worry?
As for Zhu Bajie, as the commander of the military region, he was as greedy and lecherous as the modern officialdom. He was good at talking and flattering, but he was not good at fighting. He was captured by a few little demons several times.
Of course, he had been promoted from a military district to a central committee member. It was no wonder he was not convinced.
Monk Sha had been promoted from a guard (regiment level) to a member of the Central Committee.
If Tathagata really wanted to save all sentient beings, he could just find a random Bodhisattva to be in the Tang Empire. In short, all the demons were arranged by the higher-ups. If those immortals really didn't see the driver for a week, they would look for him everywhere. A few of them were about to be beaten to death by Sun Wukong's stick and rushed over to save them.
Some of them would come back on their own after they had told the others about it, such as the yellow-robed monster. As for the monsters without an owner, the outcome was different. Che Chiguo and the other two, Sun Wukong played with them to death.
From this, it could be seen that Journey to the West was a complete scam, a scam controlled by those in power. In fact, if you thought about it carefully, you would find that there were actually a lot of loopholes in Journey to the West:
For example, why couldn't Sun Wukong, who was wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace, defeat a demon? Why didn't the monster eat the monk? Why do you want to learn? What was the use of learning scriptures? Also, Tang Sanzang's mother had never returned to her parents 'home after she got married, and there was no letter between them! For eighteen years, she had slept with her husband's murderer every night. It was simply unimaginable!
Moreover, the five members of the Journey to the West actually represented their respective forces. Tang Sanzang was the reincarnation of Tathagata's disciple, the Golden Cicada Master, and represented the interests of Buddhism.
Sun Wukong was a five-colored stone left behind by Nüwa to mend the sky, representing the demon race.
Zhu Bajie was actually the disciple of the Grand Supreme Elder's disciple, Master Xuandu, and represented the interests of Taoism.
Monk Sand was the commander of the Jade Emperor's guards and represented the interests of the Heavenly Court.
The White Dragon Horse belonged to the dragon race and represented the interests of the Four Seas 'dragon race.
Therefore, it could be seen at a glance that the Journey to the West had actually been arranged long ago. Tang Sanzang and the others were actually just going through the motions. All the disasters experienced in the Journey to the West were just for gilding.
The demons on the Journey to the West were just abandoned pawns thrown out by the rulers to achieve their own goals. If Huang Mei really caught Tang Sanzang according to the script, would Tang Sanzang still have a good life when he became a Merit Buddha?
That was why Huang Mei was crying so bitterly after hearing Qin Fan's words. It was because he had been pushed to such a state by his own master. Of course, it was undeniable that he also wanted to eat Tang Sanzang's meat.
Therefore, Huang Mei, who had come to his senses, felt so uncomfortable.
Qin Fan had no choice but to express his sympathy and silently observe five minutes of silence.
