Chapter 34: Breaking the Stubbornness Requires Wukong
For the arrogant words of the monkey, what else could Tang Sanzang say besides expressing appreciation and approval in his heart?
Let him keep up the good work?
He is worthy of being a Monkey King, and he is also worthy of being a good disciple of a poor monk!
Tang Sanzang sighed in his heart, and then handed the purple gold bowl to the monkey again and said. "Go, wash the bowl."
Suddenly, the face of the monkey who had just scolded Fang Xuan, pointed out the rivers and mountains, and regarded Guanyin Bodhisattva as nothing, turned black in an instant.
"Don't wash!"
"Wukong......" Tang Sanzang said with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. How can you be so unhygienic? Even the purple gold bowl that is a teacher is unwilling to be washed, what kind of big deal can it be discussed? Still want to achieve positive results? ”
"Nonsense......" said the monkey with one side of his body, his eyes twitching, disdainfully. You asked Monkey King to wash the bowl for you? Hmph, you have to go, you go by yourself! ”
"What an ungrateful monkey, sacrifice your life for the teacher to protect you in front of the Guanyin Master, I didn't expect that now I don't even want to do such a trivial thing as washing the bowl, if you encounter any dangers and difficulties in the future, don't you want to abandon the teacher and run away?" Tang Sanzang scolded sharply, as if the monkey was doing something rebellious.
"This ......"
For a while, the monkey always felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't find the reason.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that helping the master wash the bowl is really not a big deal, and it is an obligation for a disciple, but my grandson is a dignified Monkey King, wouldn't it be a shame to help him wash the bowl?
"Alas......"
At this time, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but sigh, revealing deep tiredness and sadness, just like an old father who was abandoned by an unfilial son.
For some reason, when the monkey saw this gold-inlaid hat, he was deeply attracted by it, and instinctively took it and spoke.
"Master, what is this for? A gift for my grandson? But even so, don't think about my grandson helping you wash the bowl. ”
"Gifts? No, you misunderstood, the always democratic teacher just wants to give you two choices, either obediently help the teacher wash the bowl, or, for the teacher to stuff the hat given to you by the Guanyin Master on your head, recite the mantra, let you survive and not die, and then obediently wash the bowl. ”
"What?!"
The monkey, who had an expression of indifference, immediately became furious, shook his head slightly, and blinked again and again with a pair of fiery eyes, and immediately noticed that this gold-inlaid flower hat that he loved was secretly magical.
"It's such a ruthless calculation, my grandson almost fell for the mother-in-law's ......"
Immediately, the monkey, whose chest rose and fell rapidly, and whose eyes were slightly red with anger, immediately took out the golden hoop rod from his ear and wanted to ride the somersault cloud.
"Good Nanhai Guanyin, my grandson will go to her to ask for an understanding, why do you want to calculate my grandson like this, if you can't say it clearly, today I will teach her to taste my grandson's golden hoop stick, and pound her South China Sea purple bamboo forest."
However, as soon as the monkey's feet left the ground, a slender white palm fluttered towards the monkey's shoulder.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, an incalculable force poured out, and the monkey was instantly pressed back into the ground, directly sinking into a huge pit.
And Tang Sanzang, who didn't know when the "Light of the Righteous Path" had faintly lit up behind his head, looked at the monkey who was pressed into the pit by his own palm with a pair of warm and peaceful eyes, and asked softly.
"Wukong, if you don't help wash the bowl for the teacher, what do you want?"
"Monk, let go of my grandson, how dare Guanyin calculate me like this, how can she spare her?" However, the angry monkey is constantly struggling.
"Wukong, look at ......" Suddenly, the light behind Tang Sanzang's head became brighter, pointing to the purple gold bowl in his hand, and his tone was full of gentleness and delicacy, quietly melting into the monkey's heart.
"Look at this bowl, it's big and round, do you know why?"
The monkey felt the tremendous force pressing on his shoulders by three points, suddenly sobered up a little, and asked subconsciously. "Why?"
In this regard, Tang Sanzang smiled and did not say a word, just let go of the hand that was pressing on the monkey's shoulder, and stuffed the bowl in his hand into the monkey's hand.
"Go ahead, help the teacher wash the bowl, so that I can have an enlightenment."
The monkey, half of his body pressed into the pit, hesitated for a moment, but finally shoved the golden rod back into his ear, picked up the purple gold bowl and ran towards the nearest water source.
Why is this bowl so big and round?
The monkey pondered the question as he crouched casually at the water source to wash the bowl.
After a moment, the monkey looked at the washed purple gold bowl in his hand in a daze, suspicious of the monkey.
This bowl, my grandson really washed it?
Suddenly, the monkey who fell into suspicion of monkey life, his eyes returned to Tang Sanzang's side with some distraction, only to feel that his brain was like a mess of paste, chaotic.
"Master, why is this bowl so big and round?"
"Very good......
Tang Sanzang, who took the purple gold bowl from the monkey's hand and stuffed it back into the baggage, touched the monkey's head and said. "Wukong, you must know that there is not so much truth in the world, and the same is true of Guanyin's calculations for you."
"The world is troubled, either you calculate against me, or I calculate against him, Wukong still doesn't understand? Insist on yourself, keep your mind clear, and all dreams will float away with the wind. ”
What the?
You say this bullshit doesn't make sense?
In fact, it is not true, if Tang San came up with it in the short time that the monkey washed the bowl, it was strange that it could stand up to scrutiny.
It's just that with the light behind Tang Sanzang's head, it is unusually convincing.
Moreover, with the cultural level of the monkey who clenches his fist and writes with a pen, he can study the loopholes in it to have ghosts.
As for the monkey, under Tang Sanzang's power that was difficult for him to resist, he understood that he did not have the ability to resist at all.
In the face of such a thing, in the face of Tang Sanzang is like this, and in general the same is true for Guanyin Bodhisattva, right?
"Hongmeng is sexless at the beginning, and it is necessary to break the stubbornness of Wukong......"
As Tang Sanzang's last leisurely words came into the monkey's ears, the monkey vaguely realized something, and remained motionless in place.
Tang Sanzang finally fooled this monkey completely, and it was estimated that he would never have time to think about the golden hoop stick again, so he began to pack his luggage, and continued to travel west on a white horse.
"Let's go, Goku......"
"Yes, Master." Some of the monkeys, still mired in the horns of the bull, instinctively responded.
"Wukong, that hat, since you don't want it, then return it to the poor monk......"
"Hmm......" said the monkey instinctively as he handed the hat over, and after a moment of silence.
"Master, thank you......"
"It's okay, this is what a teacher should do......"
