Chapter 233 A Mountain, a Stick, and a Flag
Tang Seng left, leaving Hu Xiao alone staring blankly at his departing back.
Thinking of the words that Tang Seng left before leaving, Hu Xiao couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"I'm Goku's master, but I'm also the one who owes him the most, so I'd love to do something and do something for him."
"Don't come to me again, fifteen hundred years have passed, even I have let go, what are you still stubborn about? He won't see you, even if I really take you into Lingshan and come to him, he won't see you, because he is no longer the Monkey King of your demon clan, and now, he is the fighting Buddha of my Buddhism. ”
After saying these ruthless words, Tang Seng turned around and left.
Tiger roared on his knees, the blood on his forehead stained his whole face, he listened to Tang Seng's words with tears in his eyes, looked at Tang Seng's figure leaving step by step, and finally, knelt on the ground.
"Holy Monk ......."
A moment later, melodious words came from the mouth of the back figure, awakening the desperate tiger roar.
"The Zhantan Merit Buddha in front of you may not be able to protect too many people, but you can still protect dozens of little demons, in the future, don't make trouble."
Tiger Xiao looked at it in a daze, and watched Tang Seng leave in a daze, until Tang Seng completely disappeared from his eyes, he kowtowed again and made a big salute.
"The tiger roared and thanked the holy monk!"
——————————
Walking on the way back to the hotel, Tang Seng held his hand behind his back, stared at the gray sky, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I wonder if the monkey will be happy when he finds out? Hehe, who knows, probably will, but that monkey has always been like a stone, and even if he is really happy, he can't see it. ”
Tang Seng's footsteps paused and stopped in place.
"But you said you let go, did you really let go? Even those stupid monsters refuse to let go, can you let go of the golden cicada? ”
"Actually, there's still a little bit you can't let go, right? If you really let go, why do you bother to come and see these poor stupid monsters tonight? Why do you need to protect them? Drinking a pot of spirits, indulging and laughing, and watching them die, isn't it really a let go? ”
"That's it, one last time, and in the future, don't be nosy."
Tang Seng was talking to himself, talking to himself.
He told himself that it was time to let go, that it was time to let go.
In a trance, a very familiar voice seemed to appear in his ears, and an old figure gradually appeared in front of him.
"Master, thank you."
The figure folded his hands, saluted softly, and said to himself.
Looking at the unreal figure in front of him, Tang Seng smiled lightly, as if he had returned to a thousand years ago.
"This is what a teacher should do, Wukong, why do you have to meet the master like this, don't forget, ...... for the teacher"
The evening breeze blew, the figure in front of Tang Seng disappeared, the sound in his ears also disappeared, and only a white stray dog slowly ran in front of his eyes.
Tang Seng's eyes sank.
Hallucinations? Probably.
But I saw the monkey who refused to admit defeat again, hehe, it's not bad.
With his hands behind his back, Tang Seng didn't want to think about it anymore, alone, lonely and lonely walking on the empty street.
"Wukong, you have a very bad master, this very bad master tricked you into going to a path with him that has little hope, but you still went, and you are still willing to gamble with him, but it's a pity that for the teacher, I lost you after all."
The evening breeze rose, the fallen leaves drifted away, and the thin figure disappeared into the darkness and walked forward silently.
————————————
"Hello."
"I heard that you are the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace back then, hello."
"Someone told me you're a stone monkey, so you can't speak, can you?"
The monkey who was crushed at the bottom of the mountain looked at him coldly, his hair was full of weeds, and only his eyes were still so violent.
He smiled himself, then sat cross-legged in front of him.
"Do you want to get out?"
"I can help you out."
The monkey doesn't like to talk, so he doesn't speak, only himself.
"My name is Xuanzang, I am a monk, I am going to the West Heaven to do a big thing, would you like to go with me?"
The monkey still didn't speak, just stared at him fiercely.
"This matter of mine is very big and powerful, so there are many people who want to kill me, but I don't want to die, I want to find a powerful person to protect me, are you willing to be this person?"
"I can't promise you anything, because I don't know if I can succeed, I have to go far, I want to use my own way all the way to the western heavens, but some people don't want to see me go there, because my way is different from theirs."
"Are you finished?"
The malevolent monkey finally spoke.
He shook his head earnestly.
"Nope."
"I'm being crushed here by Rulai."
"I've heard that it seems like you made a mistake, but I don't think you're at fault, so would you like to go on the road with me?"
"Let me be a dog for you in a different way?"
"It's a master and apprentice, I am your master, you are my first apprentice, and at the same time, you are also my first person in Pudu."
"Are you worthy?"
"Not worthy now, but will later."
"Get out!"
"You're scared."
"I'm scared a lot."
"Afraid of what? Afraid that those who follow you will continue to die? But have you thought about it, if you continue to stay here, there will be no change in Heavenly Court, they should still be killed, those people you cherish will still die, and the ending will not change in any way. ”
"Do you still have a choice? When you leave that mountain, when you pick up that stick, when you put up that flag, there is no way back. ”
"My name is Xuanzang, I am a monk, I am going to the West Heaven, this is a gamble, some people believe that I will win, some people do not believe it, do you want to believe it?"
The monkey closed its eyes and appeared to be asleep.
I sighed.
patted the dust on the monk's robe and stood up helplessly.
"Okay, then the poor monk won't force it, let's see you in the future."
————————————
The next day.
Looking at the emaciated monkey beside him, watching him boredly catch lice on his body.
He looked at the flat road in front of him and said with a faint smile.
"Or are you willing to believe it, not afraid that I will lie to you?"
The monkey is a rock, so he doesn't like to talk.
It wasn't until he slaughtered a tiger and changed into a tiger skin skirt that he said a word sullenly.
"I don't believe anyone, but you're right, I really have no choice but to bet with you once."
The tiger's self glanced at the taciturn monkey and closed his eyes.
"Then let's go on the road together."
A monkey, a monk in white, walked down the road towards the place called Lingshan.
——————————
"I forgot to ask you, what are you doing?"
"Learn from the scriptures."
"What scriptures?"
"Take my scriptures."
"Do you have to go to someone else to get your scriptures?"
"yes."
"I want to kill you."
"You won't, because you're my apprentice."
"I used to have a master, but he never cared about me, and even hated me."
"I can't be a teacher, I like animals very much, and I will protect you as a teacher."
"Are you worthy?"
"Yes."
————————————
"Unworthy."
Tang Seng smiled slightly, then waved his right hand, and the scene in front of him disappeared.
This was the scene where he first met Goku, and he remembered it very well and kept it in his heart all along.
It was only later that he learned that only three people could open the seal of the World Venerable, one was himself, one was the World Venerable, and the other was the monkey.
He has been suppressed for five hundred years, and most of his Taoism has been damaged, but he was very powerful at the beginning, Lao Jun did not move, and the world ignored him, and there was no one in this world who could suppress him.
After the first hundred years, he was able to go, but he didn't, probably because he was disheartened.
It wasn't until he met himself and said something strange to him that the monkey came out.
Tang Seng didn't believe in the word fate before, but that day, when he saw the monkey crushed under the mountain for the first time, he suddenly knew what fate was.
This monkey will definitely go with him, definitely.
He didn't know why, but he had that strong premonition, so he talked to him a lot, and also told him his own sermon, maybe he really regarded the demon monkey who killed countless heavenly soldiers and generals as his apprentice.
As for whether the monkey regarded him as a master or not, he didn't know, but he knew one thing.
That is, he is really not worthy of being his master, he can't protect him, he will only say some specious truths, and only talk about those who think they are right.
That monkey must have believed him, right? Because he had piled up the last bit of his chips in front of him, and even gambled on himself.
In order to help him, he killed a lot of people he didn't want to kill, and those people were his subordinates, more loyal than the tiger just now!
He also released a lot of people he wanted to kill, in order to help himself Pudu.
But in the end, I was still defeated, and I was completely defeated.
The Lord didn't listen to him, didn't ask himself how many sentient beings had been purified in the past 108,000 miles, and how much Mahayana Buddhism he had enlightened, but that day, the Lord only pointed to the four bloodied disciples behind him.
"Did they put it down? Have they been crossed by you? ”
He was speechless.
The World-Honored One waved his hand gently, and the people he had crossed in the past appeared in front of him, and that was all beings.
The people he has sent are still the same as before, they continue to be troubled by calamities, they continue to be tormented by red dust, they have no clear mind, they can't see it, they can't see it, because the world is so ignorant, because the world suffers so much, because he has crossed for a while, and he can't get through a lifetime!
Finally, the Lord looked at him.
"What about you?"
His Dao heart was broken.
——————————
Tang Seng smiled, rubbed his hands and smiled, laughing so obscenely, laughing so pitifully.
"From then on, there is only Tang Seng left in the world, and there is only one Buddhist scum who only knows how to drink wine and eat meat, and is obsessed with red dust! But relaxed, relaxed, don't worry about anything, don't pay attention to anything, this kind of taste is really good. ”
Looking at the moon with his back hand, Tang Seng smiled.
"The poor monk finally let go, after all, he still let go of everything in the past, Tang Sanzang, you really lived up to my expectations."
After being crazy for a while, Tang Seng quieted down.
Continue walking on the deserted streets.
"It's over, it's all over, it's all over."
With a long sigh for the end, Tang Seng looked at the sky with his back hand, and nodded thoughtfully.
"However, that tiger spirit should have something to hide from me, although Heavenly Court has not used large-scale troops against the mortal world for more than a hundred years, but the Heavenly Survey Prison has never rested, although ordinary little demons are no longer besieged and killed, but the monsters in Huaguo Mountain are never in these lists that can be pardoned."
"Fifty-two little demons, most of them have just transformed, but there are also a few who have entered the realm of human immortals, and they all survived back then, but just because they want to avoid the heavenly soldiers of the Heaven Survey Prison, I am afraid that it is a fantasy."
"Someone must have secretly helped them, those vampire goblins shouldn't be, so who could it be?"
As he spoke, Tang Seng smiled.
"Why do you think so much, is there anything in this world that I care about now? It's the spiritual mountain collapse, the heavenly court is destroyed, what does it have to do with me? ”
With a loud laugh, Tang Seng walked away.
——————————
Not long after Tang Seng left the park, the white stray dog that had just flashed past his eyes walked back to the park.
Standing in front of the gate of the park, the white stray dog looked down and sniffed, blinking his eyes in confusion.
Soon, Tiger Roar walked out of the park, but Tiger Roar didn't care about the stray dog and walked away quickly.
The white stray dog stared at the back of the tiger roaring for a long time, and there seemed to be a trace of confusion in his eyes.
Tiger Roar sensed the stray dog's gaze on him, and also stopped, turned his head to look back, but he didn't see anything wrong, so he ignored it and turned away.
Looking at the figure of the tiger roaring away, the white stray dog lowered its head and sniffed the ground again, and then pricked up its ears towards the place where Tang Seng left.
Staring at the place where the tiger roared and sniffing the direction of Tang Seng's departure, a deep confusion appeared in the eyes of the white stray dog.
Five minutes later, shaking his head, the proud stray dog wiped his face with his paws, licked the corners of his mouth, and walked away with broken steps.
