The Monkey King left Huaguo Mountain, and he climbed several mountains in a row before finally coming to a big road leading to the outside of the mountain. At this time, there were not many people on the road, and when he saw a man in front of him hurrying on his way, he even ran and jumped to catch up with the man and ask for directions.

The Monkey King was about to open his mouth, but suddenly remembered what the old monkey had told him, no matter who he was, he must be respectful and polite to anyone. Thinking of this, the Monkey King walked up to the man and gave a salute.

Then he asked, "Excuse me, do you know how to go to Xiniu Hezhou?" ”

The man was about to answer, but when he turned around, he saw the monstrous appearance, and he was so frightened that he ran for his life.

The man ran and shouted, "The monster is coming!" Youkai are coming! ”

When the monkey saw the man like this, he was still wondering, this man was really weird, I just asked for directions, why did he run away? The Monkey King couldn't figure out what was going on, but when he saw the man running desperately in front, he chased after him.

They chased after each other to a village, where there was a market where everything was sold, and there were adults and children all over the street. Some of them were haggling, while others were playing in the bazaar.

The man ran and ran, still shouting, "Monster! Monsters! There's a youkai coming! ”

When everyone heard that a youkai was coming, they all flashed aside in fright. It didn't matter, the stalls on the ground were also in a mess, and melons and fruits were rolling all over the floor.

While everyone was looking for a place to hide, they looked into the middle of the street in a panic, but they saw a man howling and running desperately in front of him, and a monkey shouting behind that person and hurriedly chasing after him.

One of them had seen a monkey before, and the man who knew the monkey said, "Don't make a fuss, it's just a monkey, he doesn't hurt anyone." ”

The running man happened to run up to the speaker, and when he heard this, he hurriedly stopped, and the Monkey King caught up with him.

The Monkey King smiled contemptuously, "Yes! Oh, yes! What a fuss you guys guys are about! ”

As soon as they heard the monkey talk, they were amazed again, and it was the first time they had seen a talking monkey. So, they gathered around the Monkey King, and everyone looked at him curiously.

The man who ran just now was bold this time. He asked the monkey, "Hey! You ugly bastard, where did you come from? ”

Hearing such a question, the Monkey King was so angry that he couldn't cry or laugh, and he really didn't know how to answer such a question. So the monkey king grabbed the man forward, and after a few strokes he climbed to a branch, and even stood on the tree and urinated on the tree.

Then, he stood there with his chest puffed up and said to everyone: "You people who have never seen the world, I am the Monkey King on Huaguo Mountain." You still call me ugly, say I'm weird, where am I ugly? What's wrong with me? ”

When the Monkey King had finished speaking, he jumped down from the tree, and he ran up to the men, grinning and grimacing at them.

The Monkey King is like this, and people are starting to get tired of him. Out of curiosity, someone took the lead in playing the monkey king. Some of them poked him with branches and beat him, some fed him with food, teased him, and even threw stones at him. It made the Monkey King irritable for a while, and opened his mouth as if he was about to bite.

Thanks to a kind man, when he saw the monkey jumping around in an inhuman form, he told the monkey king, "Hey! Monkey, you can't do that. If you want to learn to be a man, you must first learn the rules of being a man. If you want to be recognized, you have to restrain your behavior. If you want to communicate with people, you have to be human. ”

The Monkey King innocently said, "Oops! I've finally met someone who is kind to me. You can see that these people are playing tricks on me, and I want to bite them a few times. ”

The warm-hearted man said, "I saw it, but you have to be more polite so that you can get everyone's respect." ”

So, the man taught the Monkey King some basic knowledge of being a man, and the man took off a coarse cloth shirt and a straw hat from himself and gave them to the Monkey King. He also taught the Monkey King some polite words, and taught him some etiquette for dealing with people.

The Monkey King thanked the good Samaritan and asked him again, "Ah! I don't know if it's right to call you brother, may I ask you, brother, do you know where Xiniu Hezhou is? ”

The man shook his head and said he didn't know, and the Monkey King put what he had just learned to use. He clenched his fists and apologized to everyone first, and then asked everyone the exact location of Xiniu Hezhou. But no one knows where Xiniu Hezhou is.

When the well-wisher saw that the monkey knew that he was modest and polite, he said with satisfaction: "Ape, since our Aolai Kingdom is in this Dongsheng Divine Continent, I conclude that the West Niu He Continent should be in the west, right?" I think you'd better try to look southwest. ”

When the Monkey King heard this, he also nodded yes, the Monkey King did gain a lot when he met this benefactor, and he thanked the benefactor for his kindness, and hurried on the road.

On this day, the Monkey King traveled southwest for a few days and finally came to a beach. He saw an old fishman on the beach, who was sorting out his fishing nets. The Monkey King was very happy when he saw this, so he walked straight over.

The Monkey King respectfully asked the old fisherman, "Old man, I want to inquire with you, where is the West Niu Hezhou, and do you know there?" ”

The old fisherman smiled, nodded and said, "Hey! It turned out to be a monkey. You ploppy monkey, where did you learn these etiquettes, how do you know how to be so polite, yes!

Monkey, where are you from? Ask me, you're asking. Naxi Niu Hezhou is thousands of miles away, and there are indeed very few people who know about it, but fortunately, I know a little bit about it.

But to go to Xiniu Hezhou, you must have amazing perseverance, because it is far, far away and it is dangerous to go there. Naxi Niu Hezhou is in the deepest part of the sea, it is not easy to go there, it is not too late for you to give up now.

Monkey, you have to cross the ocean and risk your life when you go there, and you have to withstand the test of strong winds and waves, and if you don't get it, you will be buried in the sea. That place would have to be a dead life to get there, so I advise you to dismiss it as soon as possible. ”

The monkey said solemnly: "I'm not afraid of life and death, but I'm afraid that I won't find there, old man, thank you for showing me the way." ”

The old fisherman saw that the monkey was quite polite, so he said enthusiastically: "Monkey, since you are determined to go, you must first prepare a boat, and now I will help you build a boat." ”

So, with the help of the old fisherman, they went to a nearby hill to cut some bamboo. Then, they tied several thick bamboo poles together to make a large bamboo row.

When the bamboo raft was ready, the old fisherman found two thinner bamboo poles and let the monkey use them as pennies for the boat. Then, the Monkey King said goodbye to the old fisherman and threw himself into the vast sea.

The Monkey King walked in the sea for a day against the wind and waves, his hands had been blistered with blood from the penny, and his body had already been soaked by the sea. The cold sea breeze blew on his body, and the Monkey King shivered all over his body, and his heart was really cold.

At this time, the Monkey King heard his stomach growl incessantly. That's when he remembered, Ah! It's been a busy day, and I haven't eaten anything, and it's getting dark this day, what do I have to eat to satisfy my hunger?

Thinking about it, the Monkey King placed the penny on the bamboo raft and let it spin in the water. The Monkey King took a handful of seawater with both hands and brought it to his mouth, ah! It's bitter! It's so astringent! It's so salty! It's fishy! The Monkey King hurriedly spit out, but his tongue seemed to be numb.

With no food to eat or water to drink, the Monkey King lay down powerlessly on the bamboo raft, letting the wind and waves send him wherever he went. The afterglow of the setting sun has gradually dissipated, and the red waves of the sea are about to disappear.

Suddenly, a big fish jumped onto the bamboo raft. The Monkey King hurriedly pounced there, and he pressed the big fish under him with his body, and when the fish had no strength and no longer struggled, the Monkey King sat up.

The Monkey King sat on the fish, and he said happily: "Fish, fish, you are not strange, it is also our fate that you came to save me, without you I would have starved to death." So, you'd better help me through this first! ”

The Monkey King ate a delicious meal of raw fish, and soon he was full, and when he saw that it was completely dark, he fell asleep on the bamboo raft. I don't know how many days and nights the Monkey King has been adrift in the sea, anyway, after going through a lot of hardships, he finally came to a big island.

The Monkey King came to the island, but it was a different sight to see here. On the shore of the island is a small city, and the people of the city are bustling with people. As soon as the Monkey King asked people for directions, the people who came and went on the road were so frightened by his strange appearance that they turned around and ran.

The Monkey King was afraid of causing another misunderstanding, so he covered his face with his hat, and he wrapped his cloth shirt around his body, looking like a thin old man from a distance.

The Monkey King coughed dryly twice, and asked the passer-by about the situation here, and the man said, "This is Nanshanbu Prefecture." ”

The Monkey King thought, I was going to Xiniu Hezhou, why did I come to this Nanshanbu Prefecture? He looked up at the sun, and then at the direction of the wind, and knew that the southeast wind had brought him to this southern Shanbu state in the past few days.

The Monkey King sighed and said to himself, "It turns out that I have made another big detour, and let the wind and waves be brought to this other country. Ay! It seems that I will suffer again and sin twice. I can't help it, I'd better ask for directions and set off again! ”

The Monkey King said hello to the direction of Xiniu Hezhou, and boarded the boat again and sailed towards the Western Sea. This time he had been at sea for several more years before he came to another island.

It is a very peaceful island, with undulating hills and peaks covered with forests, as if dressed in a rich green dress. A gust of sea breeze blew, like layers of green waves rolling. It is not an exaggeration to call it a fairyland on earth, it is several times more beautiful than Huaguo Mountain.

The Monkey King tethered his boat to a large rock by the sea, and landed on the island, where he quickly climbed to a mountain. At this time, there was a golden sunset hanging in the sky, and the brilliant sunset shone with the last rays of light on the entire mountain forest, and the leaves were all clothed in the color of gold.

The Monkey King had been wandering in the sea and had not eaten for several days, so he was so hungry that he picked wild fruits from the fruit trees in the forest to eat. At last he had eaten a full meal, and the monkey was satisfied, so he lay down on a dry grass and slept beautifully.

After a long night's sleep, the day dawned, and the Monkey King had slept to his heart's content, and he regained his strength, and walked towards the depths of the dense forest full of energy. But the Monkey King walked for a long time, but he couldn't meet anyone, which made it difficult for him.

Suddenly, a melodious song sounded in my ears, and the song bent and turned from far and near to echo softly in the dense forest. The Monkey King followed the sound and looked into the distance, and saw a middle-aged man walking from the mountain road.

I saw that the man was dressed in a blue cloth shirt, wearing a large hat on his head, and carrying a load of firewood on his shoulder, and he came to the monkey as he walked, humming a song.

The monkey finally looked forward to someone coming, he was very happy, so he stepped forward and said, "This old man, I came from thousands of miles to find Xiniu Hezhou, is this Xiniu Hezhou?" Do you know if there is an old fairy living here? ”

The man laughed and said, "Where did you come from, monkey?" It's a long way to go, and it's really rare to find it. Monkey, although I am a woodcutter chopping wood, I still know a little about things in the mountains. ”

The Monkey King asked anxiously: "Presumably this is Xiniu Hezhou, right?" ”

The man gushed, "Yes! You've come to the right place, this is the largest main island in Nishiniuhe Prefecture. This island is called 'Sendai Island', and the mountain under our feet is called 'Mt. Genwai'.

I know that not far from here, there is also a 'Lingtai Immortal Mountain'. There is also a 'Fangcun Mountain' in Lingtai Mountain, and there is a 'Bodhi Cave' on Fangcun Mountain, and there is an old immortal called 'Bodhi Ancestor' living in the Bodhi Cave.

Monkey, although you are here to find the old fairy, and the old fairy is also here, it is not easy to find the old fairy. I'm telling you, if you want to find the old fairy, you have to climb over this mountain first, and then over the mountain to the south.

To the south of the mountain was a very wide cliff, which was cut like a broken wall, and it was difficult to find a way down the mountain. There's no way out on the edge of the cliff, so you're just waiting there. As long as you have perseverance, one day, someone will take you to see the old fairy. ”

When the monkey saw that the woodcutter was pleased to guide him, he thanked the woodcutter happily. He walked over the mountains for a day, and it was not until it was dark that he came to the edge of the cliff of the mountain. At this time, the Monkey King was tired, feeling exhausted, and sleepiness also hit, so he fell aside and gradually fell asleep.

In my dream, I suddenly heard the crow of the golden rooster, and a ray of morning sunlight shone warmly on my cheeks. The Monkey King jumped up, he looked left and right but no one came, although he was a little anxious, but he was still helpless.

I waited for a long time, but no one came here. The monkey thought, what if it was always like this? But when I think about it, this must be an old immortal who wants to test my endurance, if he hadn't saved my life back then, I wouldn't have known where my soul would be? I've got to keep going.

So in addition to going to the mountain every day to find some food, the monkey king is to entertain himself on the side of the mountain, he sleeps when he is tired of playing, and plays again when he sleeps enough. And so on day after day, year after year. The poor monkey watched the sunrise and sunset every day, waiting for the day when the gods would arrive.
