"The story of Journey to the West?!"
Sun Wukong scratched his head, wondering why Chu Xiao suddenly wanted to tell him a story.
The story of Journey to the West has never stopped.
Out of the monkey's inner curiosity,
Sun Wukong replied politely, "Alright! Alright! Although there is no shortage of fruits and delicacies in my cave, there is nothing interesting to entertain me. I think it would be interesting if you could tell me a story."
"Okay! Let's eat and talk at the same time," Chu Xiao said as he picked up a banana and broke the peel into four pieces, revealing the plump flesh inside. He took a bite and it was fragrant and refreshing.
"Good banana!"
Chu Xiao couldn't help but admire that in this world full of spiritual energy, even ordinary bananas have excellent quality.
Just imagine how delicious the Queen Mother’s peaches and the immortal Zhenyuan’s ginseng fruit must be!
"It's delicious, brother, please eat more. There are endless bananas and fruits in my Flower and Fruit Mountain. Brother, please don't just focus on eating. Where's your story?!"
"Haha, let me tell you right away."
Chu Xiao laughed loudly, bit off the banana in his hand, swallowed it, and spoke slowly.
"In the chaos before the world was divided, the vastness was invisible.
Ever since Pangu broke through the chaos of creation, the world has been divided into clear and turbid.
All the great beings look up to the Supreme Benevolence, and all things are created for the good.
If you want to know the power of creation, read Journey to the West. "
After saying the opening words of Journey to the West, Chu Xiao deliberately paused and looked at Sun Wukong's reaction.
Sun Wukong was seen squatting quietly on his throne, tilting his head and pondering Chu Xiao's words carefully.
His eyes kept moving around, as hazy as seeing flowers in the fog, and he was completely unaware.
After a long while, perhaps because Sun Wukong couldn't guess the meaning of the poem, he tried to smooth things over.
"Hey! This poem is interesting. Keep going."
Chu Xiao did not explain the meaning of the poem to Sun Wukong. Seeing that Sun Wukong wanted to continue listening, he continued to preach.
"Thanks to Pangu's creation, the Three Sovereigns' governance, and the Five Emperors' finalization, the world was divided into four continents."
"Four continents?!" Sun Wukong understood now and asked anxiously, "But Dongsheng Shenzhou, Xiniuhezhou, Nanzhanbuzhou, Beijuluzhou?!"
"Exactly!"
Chu Xiao nodded in agreement.
"Hey! Brother Dao, your story is exactly the same as the place names in this mortal world. It's very interesting. It's very interesting. Continue to tell me."
"Don't worry, just listen to me and continue."
Chu Xiao then waved his hand, and a 3D virtual projection appeared in front of Sun Wukong and Chu Xiao, shocking those monkeys who had never seen the world and making them chatter non-stop.
"Hey! Great practice!" Sun Wukong exclaimed, thinking that although he had learned a lot of skills from his master and understood the method of immortality, he had never practiced it. He was also surprised to hear of such a magical spell. "Children, don't be alarmed or disturbed. Just listen and watch quietly. Brother Dao's story seems to be getting more and more interesting!"
The reason why Sun Wukong said this was because he saw clearly that the place described in the phantom was very similar to his own Flower-Fruit Mountain, almost indistinguishable.
This greatly aroused Sun Wukong's curiosity.
"This story begins in the border of the small country of Aolai in the East China Sea of Dongsheng Shenzhou. There is a mountain of flowers and fruits. On the mountain there is a fairy stone. The stone lays an egg, which turns into a stone monkey."
"Idiot!" Sun Wukong shouted, interrupting Chu Xiao's words immediately. He jumped up and down, scratching his head and cheeks, and muttered, "Wait! Wait! Where did you get this story from? Aren't you talking about me?!"
I’d like to recommend a novel app that I’ve been using recently. It’s supported by both Android and Apple phones!
Sun Wukong was not a fool. Although he did not understand Chu Xiao's previous verses, he was very moved after Chu Xiao mentioned the four continents and the Flower-Fruit Mountain in Aolai Country.
How could Sun Wukong not realize that Chu Xiao's story was talking about himself
Chu Xiao was interrupted, but he was neither humiliated nor angry. After Sun Wukong finished speaking and his emotions calmed down a little,
Then he nodded affirmatively.
"The story I'm telling is about you, but it's not about you!"
"Huh?!" Sun Wukong frowned, not knowing the deeper meaning of Chu Xiao's words, and what exactly he was up to.
"How can it be me and not mine? The story you told is exactly the same, no matter the location, the name of the mountain, or even my origin. How can it not be me?!"
Chu Xiao took a deep breath and said,
"There are a hundred Journeys to the West in the eyes of a hundred people.
There are a hundred Sun Wukongs in a hundred Journey to the West.
The Journey to the West I'm telling you about is you, but it's not you.
There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Sun Wukong fell into deep thought. Chu Xiao's words were not without reason.
Moreover, what Sun Wukong is more concerned about at this moment is,
Since Chu Xiao is telling a story,
So what I just said is just the beginning of the story.
A complete story not only has a beginning, but also a process and an end.
Sun Wukong felt itchy in his heart and was very curious about what Chu Xiao was going to tell him about the process and results.
"Brother Dao, what you said makes sense. Then, I'd like to hear your story about Sun Wukong."
Chu Xiao nodded, adjusted his thoughts and continued,
"The immortal stone turned into a stone monkey and became the monkey king in the Flower-Fruit Mountain."
"That's right, that's right, I, Sun Wukong, will be the Monkey King." Sun Wukong was delighted and agreed.
"But there is no time limit in the mountains. After who knows how many years, the Monkey King will have troubles."
"Yes! Yes! What annoyed me was the art of immortality."
hey-hey!
Chu Xiao smiled, not blaming Sun Wukong for constantly interrupting him.
Keep preaching.
"So, the Monkey King went out to sea, looking for immortal mountains, worshipping famous teachers, seeking immortality, and longevity."
Sun Wukong's eyes showed hope, and he was obviously recalling the time when he was learning martial arts in the Three Stars Cave.
At that time,
He is still a simple and cute little monkey.
now,
He was already the Demon King of Huaguo Mountain.
"The Monkey King searched and searched, and finally entered the immortal gate. He was given the surname Sun and the name Wukong."
Sun Wukong's eyes were filled with tears. He thought of his master and recalled what his master had said before he left the mountain.
"Wukong, after today's farewell, I will never see you again. From now on, you are not allowed to mention my name to others. Remember! Remember!"
Chu Xiao saw the change in Sun Wukong's emotions and realized that Sun Wukong had brought him into the story.
Just continue preaching.
"Wukong learned the art of longevity and acquired life-long skills. He returned to his own Flower-Fruit Mountain and became a demon king. He went down to the Dragon Palace to look for the old Dragon King of the East China Sea and obtained a golden cudgel. He went into the underworld to take the Book of Life and Death and removed the name of the monkey clan, so that the entire monkey clan would not be imprisoned in hell."
When Sun Wukong heard this, his face turned red, just like a child who had done something bad and was found out.
Chu Xiao smiled without saying anything, then changed the subject and said.
"What I'm talking about is the current Goku."
Sun Wukong asked anxiously, "What's next?! What about the next Wukong?!"
Chu Xiao said seriously,
"Then, disaster struck!"
"Misfortune?!" Sun Wukong frowned and listened carefully to Chu Xiao's story with a worried look on his face.
"Wukong stole the treasure from the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and then went to the underworld to disrupt the order of the underworld. Naturally, the two of them jointly sued him in the Heavenly Palace, which offended the Jade Emperor."
"Hey?!" Sun Wukong's eyebrows jumped, and he said angrily, "You are so good, Dragon King of the East Sea, King of Hell, you didn't dare to act rashly when I was here, but as soon as I left, you reported my affairs to the Heavenly Palace."
Sun Wukong questioned, holding his golden hoop, "Brother, the disaster you are talking about is that the Heavenly Court is going to send troops to subdue me?!"
"No!"
Chu Xiao denied, "The Heavenly Court did not send troops to subdue you the first time. Instead, they sent Taibai Jinxing to Huaguo Mountain to recruit you to the Heavenly Court and promised you the position of Bimawen."
"Ah?!" Sun Wukong paused, a little confused. Not only was he fine after making such a fuss, but he even got a job as an immortal.
Interesting! Interesting!
"Bimawen? What kind of official position is that? Is it important? Is it powerful or not?"
Chu Xiao smiled and shook his head, "Not big! Not small either!"
"What do you mean?!" Sun Wukong asked in confusion.
"Bimawen is an official position in charge of the tens of millions of celestial horses in heaven, and can match all the celestial horses in heaven."
"Oh?!" Sun Wukong's eyes rolled and he said happily, "He's so powerful, he must be a very high-ranking official!"
"No!" Chu Xiao shook his head again, "To put it bluntly, Bi Ma Wen is a horse breeder!"
"What?!" Sun Wukong was stunned, then furious, scratching the back of his hand non-stop, "Raising horses?! Hehe! The Heavenly Court actually let me, Sun, raise horses. How abominable! How unreasonable!"
"Wukong, you're into the show!"
Chu Xiao reminded him, "I'm telling you about my Journey to the West. You can listen, but don't get too caught up in it!"
Sun Wukong shook his head, tried his best to adjust his mentality, and continued,
"Brother, please don't blame me. I am just fighting for the Monkey King in the story. It is absurd that such a capable person is assigned a position of herding horses. It is absurd. I would rather not go to such a heaven!"
"Yes! That's right. When the Monkey King Bi Ma realized that he had been deceived, he gave up his official position and came to the mortal world, wanting to continue to be his own Monkey King."
"Well done! Very courageous!" Sun Wukong couldn't help but praise, "If it were me, I would do the same, and then what?! The Heavenly Court will definitely not let it go! Will they send heavenly soldiers and generals down to earth?"
"No! When the Monkey King came down to earth, he hoisted a large flag on the Flower-Fruit Mountain with four large characters written on it."
"What word?!"
"The Great Sage Equaling Heaven!"
"Hiss!" Sun Wukong's eyes shone with golden light, and he did not respond for a long time.
Then, he danced with joy and said, "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven! What a title! What a title! This Monkey King is really courageous! He dares to be equal to the Heaven!"
"This time, the Heavenly Court will definitely send troops!"
"No! You guessed wrong again!" Chu Xiao continued, "Instead of sending troops, the Heavenly Court accepted the Monkey King's title of Great Sage Equaling Heaven and recruited the Monkey King to Heaven again, making him the Great Sage Equaling Heaven."
""
Sun Wukong's mouth twitched. After a long while, he said sarcastically, "It's not that simple! How could the Heavenly Court act like this?!"
"Haha! It seems that those involved are confused, while those who are watching can see more clearly!"
Chu Xiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard what Sun Wukong said. Seeing that Sun Wukong was confused and didn't know what was going on,
Now I hear a story and see it so clearly.
It really proves the old saying.
"That's right! Although the Heavenly Court has granted him the title of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, it is only an honorary position without any authority. He is nothing more than an idle immortal."
"Humph! It's true!" Sun Wukong sneered. "If I were the Monkey King, I would rebel against the Heavenly Court and swear never to serve as an official there again."
"He has guts," Chu Xiao praised. "The Monkey King knew that he was deceived again and was humiliated during the Peach Festival. He then caused a big disturbance at the Peach Festival, stole the Golden Elixir of Taishang Laojun, and came down to earth again."
"Great noise! Great theft!" Sun Wukong gritted his teeth and said, "If it were me, I would smash the Jade Emperor's Sky Palace with a stick."
"No hurry! As you wish."
"After the Monkey King came down to earth, the Jade Emperor was furious and sent 100,000 heavenly soldiers to descend from the sky to bring down the Monkey King."
"Sun Wukong was silent, silently looking at his monkeys and grandchildren,
Most of them don't have the strength to fight against the heavenly soldiers and generals.
If a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals really came, I would have no problem.
I am afraid that it will bring disaster to my own monkeys and grandchildren.
Sun Wukong made up his mind that after listening to Chu Xiao's story, he would find a time to arm all his monkeys.
"That battle was so fierce that it was dark and chaotic!"
"Did we win?!" Sun Wukong only cared about the result.
“Lose!”
"Huh?!" Sun Wukong had a dejected look on his face, as if he was the loser.
"How's the Monkey King?!"
"The Monkey King was captured and brought to Heaven, where he was struck by thunder and burned by fire. The Heavenly Soldiers beheaded him in an attempt to get rid of him."
“Hehe! How can the Heavenly Thunder and Fire Soldiers do anything to the Monkey King? Did the Monkey King cultivate the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts?!”
"That's right!" Chu Xiao nodded and said,
"If it is the Eight-Nine Profound Art, these vulgar creatures in the Heavenly Palace cannot hurt the Monkey King. Then what? What method will they come up with?"
"Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace!"
"Sun Wukong was silent!
His eyes were filled with extremely complicated emotions, he simply couldn't understand why he was put into Laozi's alchemy furnace.
After a long time, Sun Wukong asked Chu Xiao.
"Ahem! Is this Taishang Laojun one of us?!"
"One of our own? Why do you say that?"
Sun Wukong hesitated for a moment, but still answered Chu Xiao's question, "Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace uses Samadhi True Fire, and that Samadhi True Fire is a treasure that allows the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts to reach a higher level. If Taishang Laojun throws the Monkey King into the alchemy furnace to practice for 49 days, not only will the Monkey King not be killed, but it will help the Monkey King practice the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts and develop a pair of Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils."
""
Now it was Chu Xiao's turn to be silent.
There are indeed so many mysteries and mysteries in Journey to the West, and the waters are indeed unfathomable!
Chu Xiao originally thought that Taishang Laojun used the alchemy furnace to train Sun Wukong in order to kill him.
But I didn't expect that I was actually helping Sun Wukong.
hehe!
The gods in heaven don't wear the same pants!
"If the Monkey King comes out of the alchemy furnace, few people in the heavens will be able to do anything to him."
“But there is one in the west!”
"Sun Wukong subconsciously looked towards the west.
"I seem to smell a conspiracy."
"You have a very good nose."
