Volume 2 Journey to the West Chapter 40 The Return of Wukong & Monkey King
"Bold! The Jade Emperor said that if you made a mistake, you must have made a mistake, and you dare to doubt that Your Majesty is going to wronged you!"
Seeing that the purpose of beating Li Xiang and Sun Wukong had been achieved, in order to prevent him from being unable to contain the scene, the Jade Emperor stopped the conversation and said: "Okay! Although the two of you have made some mistakes in the Nether, I think that you are the first offender, and the circumstances are not serious, my Heavenly Court is magnanimous, so I will not care about it anymore." Of course, I hope that you can atone for your sins, use your skills to do things for my heavenly court, and protect the beings of the Three Realms, I only hope that you two will not live up to my expectations. ”
"Jade Emperor Shengming!" the ministers shouted in unison.
After the ministers' words fell, the Jade Emperor continued: "Wenxuan Immortal Official, Wuxuan Immortal Official, see where there is still a lack of official positions in the Heavenly Court, let the two of them go and do it first." ”
Wuqu Xingjun stood up and replied: "Emperor Yuyu, at present, there seems to be no shortage of official positions in all palaces and halls in the Heavenly Palace, all parties and everywhere, only the Imperial Horse Supervisor lacks a main hall steward. ”
There are two people, and there is only one official position left, the Jade Emperor couldn't help frowning and said, "Oh? this..."
Without waiting for the Jade Emperor to hesitate for long, Li Xiang took the initiative to stand up and said: "The Jade Emperor doesn't have to be entangled, I'm used to being carefree, if I suddenly go to heaven to be an immortal official, I'm afraid that I won't be able to adapt to it, it's better for the Jade Emperor to confer the title of Wukong first, and I will first go back to the Nether Huaguo Mountain to wait, and wait until the Heavenly Court Immortal Official is lacking, or the Jade Emperor thinks of a solution, and then it's not too late to summon me to heaven." However, it would be better if the Jade Emperor could give a common token first, and it would be convenient for me to visit Wukong in the sky. ”
As soon as Li Xianghua fell, before the Jade Emperor could say anything, Sun Wukong couldn't help it at first, and hurriedly said: "Big brother, I have been taken care of by you all these years, if you leave, how can my old grandson feel at ease to be an official in this heavenly court alone? ”
Hearing Sun Wukong's words, the Jade Emperor was even more dissatisfied, but there was no good solution for a while. At this time, Tai Bai Xing suddenly stepped forward and said: "Emperor Yuyu, the minister remembers that Huaguo Mountain is not yet guarded by the mountain god, and it just so happens that this monk Li is the second cave master of the Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, it is better to arrange him to be the mountain god of the Huaguo Mountain as a transition, and it will not be too late to fill in the other vacancies in the heavenly court in the future." ”
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor pondered for a while, and said happily: "Taibai's method is very appropriate, then the edict will order Sun Wukong to be Bi Ma Wen, and the monk Li Xiang to be the god of Huaguo Mountain, I wonder if you two have any objections to the arrangement?"
The Jade Emperor's voice fell, and Sun Wukong wanted to say something, but Li Xiang patted it on the shoulder, shook his head and signaled to Sun Wukong, holding back what Sun Wukong was going to say, and then Li Xiang replied: "Back to the Jade Emperor, this arrangement is very appropriate, and Wukong and I have no objection." Sun Wukong nodded helplessly, indicating that this was indeed the case.
Hearing that the two had no objections, the Jade Emperor did not delay, and directly issued an edict: "Order, seal the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave Sun Wukong as the imperial horse supervisor Bi Ma Wen, seal the scattered cultivation of Li Xiang, as the god of Huaguo Mountain, and give Li Xiang a passage order, he can freely enter and exit the gate of heaven and non-important places in the heavenly court." ”
The Jade Emperor's voice fell, and Li Xiang took Sun Wukong to make a gesture to the Jade Emperor together, and the two said in unison: "Thank you Jade Emperor!"
The Jade Emperor nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Mu De Star Army, you go and send Wukong to serve as the Imperial Horse Supervisor." The words fell, and the light in his hand flashed, and then a jade talisman fell into Li Xiang's hand.
Putting away the talisman in his hand, Li Xiang said to the Jade Emperor again: "Jade Emperor, I will first accompany Wukong to the Imperial Horse Prison to take office, and then I will go back to Huaguo Mountain first." ”
The Jade Emperor replied in a majestic tone: "Quasi!"
……
Here, Li Xiang followed the interested Sun Wukong and Mu Dexingjun with a flat expression to the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and soon Mu De Xingjun arranged some handover matters for Wukong, and then returned to the palace alone.
Sun Wukong summoned the eunuch, deputy eunuch, pawn book, wrestler, and other relevant officials to figure out the affairs of this imperial horse supervisor, and also learned that this imperial horse supervisor manages thousands of heavenly horses, look at its breed list:
骅骝骐骥, 騄 (lù) 騏 (qí) 線 Li, 骕骦, 駃 (kuài) 騠 (tí) silver 騔 (gé), 騕褭 (yǎo niǎo) 飞 yellow, 騊駼 (táo tú) flip feathers, red rabbit super light, more than the light of the scene, Teng Wu Sheng Huang, chasing the wind Jedi, flying in the sky, Yi Piao Chi Dian, Tong Jue floating clouds, 骢 (cōng) Long Tiger, absolute dust and purple scales, four great Wan, eight horses and nine Yi, thousands of miles of peerless. Such good horses, one by one, can be described as neighing and chasing electricity, and their spirit is strong, and they have long strength to step on the fog and climb the clouds. The lightning and flint are galloping, after all, there are two more feet.
Sun Wukong read the book, pointed out the number of horses, and personally supervised the people of various departments to take care of these horses, only ten days later, these days the horses are fat one by one, and when he saw Sun Wukong, he leaned in kindly. Li Xiang, who saw it in his eyes, couldn't help but ridicule Sun Wukong, saying that he was raising a group of descendants.
Unknowingly, more than half a month has passed, and Li Xiang also returned to Huaguo Mountain a few days ago to wait for Sun Wukong to go down to earth. On this day, the officials of the Imperial Horse Prison arranged for Sun Wukong to have a banquet with them, and they were drinking happily, when Sun Wukong's heart suddenly moved, and asked: "What kind of official title is I'm 'Bi Ma Wen'?"
Everyone replied: "The official name of this official is 'Bi Ma Wen'." ”
Sun Wukong asked again: "Oh, how many products does this official have?"
The crowd replied, "There is no grade." ”
Sun Wukong asked happily: "There is no grade, presumably because this official is very big, right?"
Everyone didn't think much about it, and replied straightforwardly: "It's not big, it's not big, it can only be called an official who hasn't entered the stream." ”
Sun Wukong was puzzled: "Why haven't you entered the stream?"
Everyone shook their heads and sighed: "The meaning of not entering the stream is the last class, such an official is the lowest and the smallest, just to look at the heavenly horses." If you are a little lazy, you may be blamed, or if the horse is damaged, you will be dismissed and punished. ”
When Sun Wukong heard this, his head was about to smoke with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This Jade Emperor Lao Er's is not a thing, how can my old grandson be regarded as a king and ancestor in Huaguo Mountain, why is it that after coaxing me to come to heaven, he asked me to do the work of raising horses, is this looking down on my old grandson or bullying my old grandson? Hmph! Don't do it, don't do it! My old grandson is still the king of Huaguo Mountain!"
When the words fell, Sun Wukong held back his anger, smashed the wine glass in his hand, and walked angrily to the outside of the Imperial Horse Prison. As soon as he was halfway there, he seemed to remember something, Sun Wukong turned his head again, rushed to the stable, and led the sheep by the hand... led the horses, took hundreds of heavenly horses, and drove back to the lower realm Huaguo Mountain. This operation went smoothly, and there was no half a person on the road to stop it, and soon Sun Wukong returned to Huaguo Mountain with hundreds of heavenly horses.
"Big brother, children, my grandson is back!" As soon as he arrived back at Huaguo Mountain, Sun Wukong shouted impatiently.
Monkeys: "The king is back, the king is back!
Li Xiang walked out of the water curtain cave and walked a few steps to Sun Wukong's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a flat tone: "I'm back." ”
Nodding, Sun Wukong replied to Li Xiang, "Hmm." ”
The monkeys happily asked, "The king has been in the upper realm for more than 10 years, presumably this is a glorious return to his hometown?"
Monkey King: ......=_=
"Hey! Don't mention it, I'm really angry with my grandson! That Jade Emperor Lao'er sealed me to do what Bi Ma Wen, my old grandson didn't understand at first, looking at the dozens of people and thousands of good horses under his hands, I thought it was a very big official, but I never thought that I understood it later, this 'Bi Ma Wen' is simply the lowest and lowest official, to put it bluntly, it is a horse breeder, thanks to my old grandson at the beginning and diligently to take care of Tianma, the Tianma raised fat and strong, and later learned the truth, my old grandson was so angry that he almost lifted the table! So I simply quit and returned to this Huaguo Mountain to be my mountain king.
Hey, don't say it, don't say it, the more you mention it, the more angry you become. By the way, my grandson has only been in the upper realm for more than ten days, why do you say that I have been there for more than ten years?"
The monkeys replied, "You have not paid attention to the passage of time in heaven, my lord, but one day in heaven is a year in the earth." ”
Sun Wukong suddenly realized: "Oh, yes, that's true, my old Sun really doesn't care too much." ”
Suddenly, there was a roar of horses behind Sun Wukong, and then everyone noticed that when Sun Wukong came back, there were about hundreds of handsome Pegasus behind him.
Li Xiang asked curiously, "Wukong, who are you?"
Sun Wukong scratched his head, and replied with some embarrassment: "It's not that my old grandson wants to be fooled by the Jade Emperor in vain, doing the inferior errand of raising horses, and also raising so many heavenly horses to be fat and strong, and my old grandson brings back some heavenly horses as a reward, isn't it too much?"
Hearing this, Li Xiang was full of black lines, and replied speechlessly: "Well, not too much, not too much." "As for whether the Heavenly Court will be furious like thunder because of this? Li Xiang said that he was fearless, and the soldiers would come to block it, and the water would cover it. And Sun Wukong simply didn't think about it.
Seeing that Li Xiang also agreed with his opinion, Sun Wukong was proud again, praised his wit, and felt beautiful in his heart for a while, and then ordered the monkeys to prepare a banquet, first, to relax their mood, and second, to rush to the bad luck.
In the Water Curtain Cave, Sun Wukong was drinking with Li Xiang and the monkey monkey grandchildren, and suddenly a monkey ran in from outside the cave and reported: "King, there are two one-horned ghost kings outside the door, I want to see the king." ”
Sun Wukong replied, "Oh, let them in." ”
Soon the two ghost kings tidied up their appearance, followed the little monkey into the cave, and began to bow down when they saw Sun Wukong.
Seeing that the ghost king had come in, Sun Wukong asked curiously, "What do you want to see me?"
The two ghost kings said: "I have long heard that the king is virtuous, and I have never had the opportunity to meet, and recently I heard that the king was named a heavenly official, and the brocade clothes returned to his hometown, and I hereby present an ochre yellow robe, congratulations to the king." If the king does not dislike my lowliness and is willing to take in the villain, the villain is willing to pay for the work of dogs and horses to repay the king. ”
Hearing this, Sun Wukong was overjoyed, put on the clothes offered by the ghost king, and then announced in front of the monkeys that the ghost king was the vanguard of the former governor.
After the ghost king was relieved of Sun Wukong, he asked: "The king has been in the heavenly court for so long, I don't know what position he holds?"
Sun Wukong sighed and replied: "That Jade Emperor doesn't know talents, so he made me what 'Bi Ma Wen'." ”
When the ghost king heard this, he was furious and said: "The big netizen is so powerful, how can he only raise horses for him? ”
When Sun Wukong heard this, he recited the words 'Monkey King' in his mouth a few times, and the more he read it, the more he felt that this title was very suitable for him, and then said happily: "Okay! Okay! Four strong generals, you quickly make a flag for me, and the words 'Monkey King' will be written on the flag, and hang it immediately after doing it, and you will all call me Monkey King in the future, don't call me the king anymore." Don't forget to inform the demon kings of the other buildings so that they know about it too. ”
Sun Wukong was excited for a while, then he calmed down, and when he saw his eldest brother Li Xiang, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Li Xiang: "Big brother, if you have a skill like me, you are called Monkey King, big brother, you are so much stronger than me, why don't you also have a resounding name?"
Hearing this, Li Xiang was also interested, and couldn't help but start thinking in his mind: "What is your name? The Great Sage of Victory is unlucky, a bit like the Great Sage of Ascension, and the Great Sage of Breaking Heaven is not good." The Great Sage of Heaven ?pass. Hey, why am I getting up to the sky, if I jump out of this circle, I might as well call it this name..."
