As soon as he saw Sun Wukong coming back, Tang Seng was naturally very happy.

However, on the face, he still put on the master's shelf and admonished him, first gave a stick, and then handed a sweet date.

"Wukong, I have prepared a set of clothes for you, you can try to see if it fits."

Inadvertently, the golden hoop was also wrapped in a shirt and handed over together.

Guanyin has long figured out Sun Wukong's temperament, if you suddenly take out a golden hoop for him to wear, he will definitely not follow.

But if he finds out for himself, he will think it is a treasure and will be eager to put it on.

In that way, even if you take the initiative to put on a tight spell on yourself.

But this time Guanyin miscalculated...... Because it is impossible for her to calculate a variable, that is, Gu Ming.

For this world, Gu Ming is a BUG.

He understands the direction and turning point of all the important plots, and also understands the true intention behind the scriptures of the West.

He arrived at the Five Elements Mountain one step ahead of schedule and secretly told Sun Wukong some things...... Among them, this golden hoop was mentioned, and Sun Wukong was instructed not to wear it.

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master."

Sun Wukong happily tried on new clothes, and the golden hoop naturally fell out.

"Huh? What kind of treasure is this? ”

Tang Seng pretended to be calm, but the corner of his eye kept observing Sun Wukong's movements.

Put it on, put it on......

But who knew that after Sun Wukong played with the golden hoop for a while, he actually received it in his arms: "This baby is good, Lao Sun will put it away first." ”

Tang Seng was in a hurry, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Wukong! ”

"What's the matter, Master? Are you thirsty? The disciple then went to fetch water for the master. ”

"No, no, no, that golden hoop just now......"

"Isn't it a treasure that Master gave to his disciples?"

"Ahem, that's ...... It was a treasure given to you by the Bodhisattva, didn't you notice that it was a headdress? Why did you put it away? ”

Helpless, Tang Seng could only remind him.

And so it was.

Sun Wukong sneered secretly, and he still had a hippie smile on his face: "Is it a headdress?" The disciple thought it was a great magic weapon. ”

And then what?

I know it's a headdress, but you put it on.

Tang Seng frowned and looked at Sun Wukong, feeling a little anxious about his disciple's IQ.

Sun Wukong sneered secretly: Want to trick my old grandson into wearing a hoop? Beautiful you!

After a while, Tang Seng couldn't help but say: "Wukong, since it was kindly given by the Bodhisattva, you might as well wear it and try it." ”

Sun Wukong said seriously: "Since it was given by the Bodhisattva, the disciple can't easily wear it, so you must treasure it with you, so as not to accidentally lose it." ”

"Don't worry, this golden hoop is tight, and it will never be lost......"

Tang Seng accidentally told half the truth.

The more this is the case, the more Sun Wukong refuses to wear it, but he is also lazy to entangle with Tang Seng again, and quickly opens the topic: "Okay, Master, it's not early, you have to hurry up, otherwise you will have to sleep in the wilderness again." ”

"This ......"

Tang Seng frowned and looked at the sky.

Anyway, if you urge him again, maybe this guy will be suspicious, so find another opportunity to coax him to wear it.

So, the master and apprentice continued on their way.

Although the next journey is not peaceful, with Sun Wukong here, it is not a big deal.

Tang Seng finally realized the benefits of accepting Sun Wukong as an apprentice, although he sometimes didn't listen to him much, but in general, he took care of him quite well.

The most important thing: safety!

This also gave Tang Seng more confidence and belief in learning scriptures from the West.

Unconsciously, the master and apprentice arrived at the Eagle Sorrowful Stream in Shepan Mountain......

"What, I'm really going to eat that white horse?"

The little white dragon hid on the mountain and said to Gu Ming with a sad face.

"Why don't you eat it? If you don't eat this white horse, maybe you won't have the opportunity to go to the west to learn the scriptures, is it possible that you want to stay in this eagle stream for the rest of your life? ”

The little white dragon shook his head quickly: "Of course not. ”

"That's it. If you want to go, you have to eat this white horse, and then turn into a white dragon horse. Moreover, you can change back at any time, and it's not a big deal.

As the saying goes, if you have to endure hardship, you will be the dragon on the dragon......"

Well, in order to be a dragon on a dragon, the little white dragon had to do this.

Besides, this white horse looks like it's delicious......

As a result, the little white dragon began to make waves......

"Huh? There are monsters, Master, be careful, I'll come when I go! ”

When Sun Wukong saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately flew into the air to check.

As a result, he fell for the little white dragon's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, turned into a dragon body and flew down from the other direction, swallowing the doomed white horse into the dragon's belly in one bite......

"Hiccup!"

It smells so good!

The little white dragon burped with satisfaction, glanced at Tang Seng who was sitting on the ground in fright, pouted, flicked the dragon's tail, and flew towards the eagle stream.

Sun Wukong saw the little white dragon swallowing the white horse in the air, and couldn't help but be furious, waving a golden hoop stick and chasing after him.

"Bold evil dragon, dare to eat my master's white horse, eat my grandson!"

The little white dragon knew that Sun Wukong was powerful, and he had been plucked by Gu Ming, so he didn't love war, and plunged into the eagle stream.

Sun Wukong flew to the sky above the Eagle Sorrow Stream, but did not enter the water, but kept stirring with a golden hoop stick......

This is because he is not good at water, he is not good at underwater combat, whenever he encounters a monster in the water, he will let Zhu Bajie or Sha Seng go into the water to attract monsters, lead them ashore and fight.

In a word, his strength will be greatly reduced in the water.

In fact, there are still a lot of bugs in Journey to the West, and many settings are actually inconsistent......

For example, Sun Wukong is not good at underwater combat, you must know that Sun Wukong made trouble in the Dragon Palace, but it was in the deep sea, and as a result, he didn't even want to go down the river on the way to learn the scriptures.

When making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, how majestic is Sun Wukong? 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals can't descend on him.

As a result, on the way to learn the scriptures, he repeatedly suffered losses at the hands of monsters......

There are also Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, who were also able to fight with Sun Wukong before learning the scriptures, and then stopped eating as soon as they joined the team.

To what extent?

Not to mention those kings, even those little monsters, just take a bundle of rope, you can make Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng obedient, just like an ordinary person.

Of course, these are just superficial contradictions, and if you analyze them in depth, in fact, everyone is acting.

It depends on who has better acting skills.

Sun Wukong has indeed been working hard, because his temperament is relatively straight.

However, making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, there are so many great powers in the Heavenly Court, will he not be able to live down?

For example, Lao Shang Laojun, if he takes out a magic weapon casually, he can smash Sun Wukong dizzy and lose his combat effectiveness, and he can still use to dispatch 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals?

Even in the end, he ran to ask for help?

In terms of supernatural powers, I am afraid that the Heavenly Court side is stronger than Rulai, and I can't count it with one pair of hands.

Let's talk about Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, are they really cooking?

If they were really cooking, they wouldn't have been chosen to be part of the experience. You must know that the two of them were also brilliant for a while, Zhu Bajie was the marshal of the canopy, and Sha Seng was also the general of the heavenly court.

To put it simply, it is a person in the system.

Therefore, the two of them can actually be called old oilers, and they can guess some of the bends and curves that they learned from the West.

also understands that Tang Seng can't die, because Tang Seng is the one chosen by the gods, if he is really eaten by monsters, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the great god?

It is precisely because Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng understand these truths that they will actively cooperate with acting.

Since the end is already doomed, why bother doing something thankless?

It's okay to howl a few words, "Senior brother, Master has been captured by monsters again!" "It's kind of a bit of a responsibility.

As for Tang Seng...... He's an idealist who doesn't know anything but babble.

But it can't be helped, but the leadership.

There are privileges.

Speaking of which, only Sun Wukong is the most serious, the hardest-working, and the most fond of moving all kinds of gods......

But now, because of Gu Ming's early intervention, all this will undergo a subtle change.

"Evil Dragon, come out and fight!"

Sun Wukong made a fuss for a while, and the little white dragon finally appeared to fight with him for ten rounds, and then dived to the bottom of the pool.

repeated several times, so angry that Sun Wukong scolded angrily, but he was helpless......

At the same time, he was worried that something would happen to Tang Seng and had to fly back.

As a result, Tang Seng was a little dissatisfied and said: "Wukong, don't you often say that you have the ability to subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger?" Why can't you even clean up a dragon. ”

"Master doesn't know, this little white dragon is very cunning, and he doesn't fight his disciples head-on at all, and he can't fight if he can't run away."

"How's that for good? It swallowed the white horse, and the master had no mount. ”

"Buy one more horse and you're ......"

"It's easy to say, where did you get the money for the teacher?"

When he was distressed again, Guanyin appeared......

Tang Seng hurriedly saluted: "Disciple see Guanyin!" ”

Sun Wukong saluted lazily, and said with a big grin: "Bodhisattva, you came just in time, the little white dragon swallowed the master's white horse, but you pleaded to save it." If you don't solve this matter, my grandson won't go to learn the scriptures. ”

"Wukong, don't be rude!"

Tang Seng hurriedly scolded.

Guanyin smiled and said: "You monkey head is so lively, you are not optimistic about the white horse, but blame this seat?" ”

"Of course it's to blame, the little white dragon was saved by the Bodhisattva."

"Okay, well, this is here to solve this matter...... Little White Dragon, don't come out soon. ”

"Wow~"

With Guanyin's shouting, the little white dragon burst out of the water, then turned into a human form and flew down, and bowed respectfully to Guanyin.

"Little White Dragon, now that the time has come, since you have devoured the white horse, you will turn into a white dragon horse and escort Tang Seng to the West Heaven to learn scriptures in order to achieve positive results."

"The disciple obeys the Bodhisattva's teachings."

The little white dragon was mentally prepared, and without saying a word, he immediately turned into a white horse.

"Hahaha, good, great!"

Sun Wukong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and stepped forward to pat the little white dragon.

"Amitabha, thank you Bodhisattva."

Tang Seng hurriedly thanked him.

"Okay, it's a long way, so you masters and apprentices can continue on their way."

With that, Guanyin's figure disappeared into the void.

On the top of the mountain, Gu Ming took in all this.

When Tang Seng and Sun Wukong started to hurry, Gu Ming said to Bai Suzhen: "Okay, if it is not bad as expected, there should be a courtyard not far ahead, let's go and have a look." ”

"Good!"

In the evening.

Snow.

"Great, Master, there's a mansion in front of us, let's go and spend the night."

"Well, go ask and see."

It's freezing on this day, and it's okay for Sun Wukong to sleep outside, but Tang Seng is bitter......

Fortunately, the host was quite enthusiastic, and when he heard that the Tang monk and apprentice were from the Tang Dynasty, he personally greeted him and introduced the other two guests who stayed overnight.

"Coincidentally, these two guests are also from the Eastern Tang Dynasty......

"Huh? Mr. Gu, is it you? ”

Tang Seng was taken aback.

Sun Wukong pretended not to know ...... This was the previous convention.

Therefore, I also learned from the master to call Mr.

"So you know each other?"

The owner was surprised.

Gu Ming smiled: "I have seen Elder Tang in Chang'an before, and I have heard him preach. ”

"That's ...... so"

Tang Seng asked with a puzzled face: "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Gu here, I don't know where Mr. Gu went on this trip?" ”

"Wandering aimlessly, traveling all the way, wherever you go."

Sun Wukong took the opportunity to say: "In this case, it is better to walk with us, and everyone can have a care." ”

"Well, that's fine!"

Not long after, the owner prepared some meals for Gu Ming and the others.

After eating, they chatted with each other for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

When the silence was quiet, Sun Wukong saw that the master was already asleep, so he tiptoed out of the door, and then disappeared with a "whoosh".

The next day, the owner enthusiastically gave the white dragon horse a set of saddles, and prepared some food for Tang Seng to eat.

Tang Seng bowed and thanked him, walked a few steps, and when he turned back, he found that he was empty behind him......

It was only at this time that Tang Seng Fang understood that the owner of the house was not an ordinary person at all, and most of them were immortals secretly helping each other.

By noon, the group found a leeward place to rest.

Sun Wukong watched his master meditate with his eyes closed, so he quietly came to Gu Ming's side and pulled out a few peaches the size of a sea bowl like a trick......

"Shangxian, this is a nine-thousand-year-old peach......"

"Huh?" Gu Ming was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Great Sage, is this...... Where did this come from? ”

"Hehe, Lao Sun quietly went to the Heavenly Palace last night and picked a few ...... in the Pan Tao Garden."

Bai Suzhen: "......"

This monkey really can't be idle.

Gu Ming subconsciously glanced at Tang Seng, and then asked in a low voice, "You're not afraid of being discovered?" ”

"Don't worry, my grandson is familiar with the road...... Ahem, only a few were picked, and those who guarded the garden would not find it. Even if you find out, it's impossible to fight for a few peaches.

You are kind to Lao Sun, and these peaches can be regarded as a little bit of Lao Sun's heart. ”

"But this ......"

"It's okay, take it."

Even so, Gu Ming no longer shirked, accepted the peach with a smile, and said, "Then thank you Dasheng." ”

"What are we polite about...... That's right......"

Speaking of this, Sun Wukong quietly took out the golden hoop: "You're right, my master urged me to wear it several times, but I didn't wear it." Do you want to throw it away, you say? ”

"You don't have to throw it away, you just don't wear it, and your master can't force you to wear it."

"But...... What if Guanyin Niangniang has to let me wear it? ”

"No, although this idea was made by her, but it was through the hands of Tang Seng, as long as you insist on not wearing it, they can't do anything. Once you put it on, it's hard to take it off. ”

Sun Wukong sighed and said: "I have to remind you, otherwise my old grandson will be fooled again." ”

"Actually, as long as you don't make mistakes of principle, they can't help you."

After talking, Gu Ming really couldn't resist the temptation of the peach, so he took out one and handed it to Bai Suzhen: "Suzhen, you can eat one too." ”

"No, no, no, this ...... It's too precious......"

Bai Suzhen naturally knew how precious the nine-thousand-year-old peach was, so she waved her hand again and again to refuse.

"Take it!"

Gu Ming couldn't help but say, and took her hand and stuffed one.

"I have five more here, and Xiaoqian and they also have them."

"Okay, thank you Childe, thank you Great Sage."

"You're welcome!"

Sun Wukong knew that Bai Suzhen was a woman, but Tang Seng didn't know, after all, with the naked eye, he couldn't see that Bai Suzhen was a woman dressed as a man.

This peach looks quite big, but when it is in the mouth, it is like a liquid, and it melts in the mouth, and a peach the size of a sea bowl was quickly swallowed by Gu Ming.

A warm stream of heat flowed down his throat, and he suddenly felt refreshed, as if his whole body was full of strength, and at the same time he became extremely light, as if a thought could fly into the air......

The nine-thousand-year-old peach is not something that ordinary immortals can enjoy, at least it must be above the Taiyi Golden Immortal to have a good mouth.

Of course, it's not just a blessing for the mouth, it's also very helpful for cultivation, and at the same time, longevity will also be greatly increased.

"When there is a chance, Lao Sun will go to Lao Jun to steal some elixir to ......"

Sun Wukong said with a smile.

After resting, the group got up and continued on their way.

Although there is a bull fork mount like the White Dragon Horse, the journey is still quite slow, and you can only walk forty or fifty miles a day.

After all, everything has to be Tang Seng.

After a while, he was thirsty.

After a while, he got tired.

After a while, he was hungry.

After a while, he was sleepy.

After all, it's just an ordinary person's physique, and it's the first time I've walked such a long way. Even if you ride a horse, you will have back pain and leg cramps.

However, Gu Ming doesn't care, just slow down, anyway, he's not in a hurry.

Counting it out, now is also the time for Nie Xiaoqian, Yu'er and others to retreat and cultivate.

For ordinary people, more than ten years may be a long time, but when it comes to a realm like Gu Ming, more than ten years is nothing?

If other people reach his level, maybe sometimes a retreat can be as long as a hundred years.

Besides, he can go back at any time...... Of course, the premise is that there are enough points.

But it's not too difficult at all, there are many demons and monsters in the Journey to the West world, and you don't have to worry about earning points, it's a big deal to go around and earn points.

On this day, the group encountered a group of robbers who blocked the road and robbed.

Gu Ming and Bai Suzhen didn't make a move, Sun Wukong stepped forward and killed one, injured three, and scared the rest away......

For this reason, Tang Seng was angry again, and kept scolding Sun Wukong, saying that his six roots were not pure, and he was prone to committing hatred and hatred, and he also committed killing and killing.

In the same temper as before, Sun Wukong was sure to be a confrontation again.

However, after communicating with Gu Ming a few times, I also learned to maintain a normal heart, what you say, I will listen.

As for whether you listen to it...... That's two things.

However, Gu Ming couldn't stand it...... To be precise, he was going to slowly start brainwashing Tang Seng.

So he walked up and said with a smile: "Elder, when you scolded Wukong, how could you not have committed the reluctance vow?" ”

"Uh......"

Tang Seng has always been able to speak well, but Gu Ming's words made him not know how to answer.

That's right, he was really angry when he saw Sun Wukong hurt people again, and shouted loudly, isn't this a hate?

"Amitabha, ashamed and ashamed......"

Tang Seng was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but take a long breath, trying his best to make himself calm.

"Actually, I wanted to talk to the elders early in the morning. Take today's events as an example, Buddhism pays attention to the word cause and effect.

So elders, if they are people who do their duty, and they don't show up here to rob, that is, they don't have this evil cause, how can they taste the evil consequences now? ”

"Amitabha, my Buddha is merciful, even if they have such evil deeds, my Buddhist disciples should also educate them......

"Elder, education is also to be divided into objects, and it cannot be generalized.

According to your philosophy, all beings under heaven are equal, right? ”

"It's natural."

"Good!" Gu Ming smiled and raised his hand to the white dragon horse: "Then, the elder and the white dragon horse are equal, so why has it become the elder's mount?" Carrying you all the way to the west to learn scriptures? ”

"This ......"

As the saying goes, there is no circle without rules, everything in the world, all living beings in the world, all have their own laws of survival, and they all have their corresponding positions.

If everyone can be taught, what else is the law to do?

In the case of monasteries, if a disciple makes a mistake, will he also be punished? Or even evicted from the door wall?

In other words, this is actually the ritual and the law......

Just as you reprimanded Wukong, you are a teacher, he is an apprentice, so you are higher than him in status, so he must listen to you.

If you change it, and he scolds you, it will be disrespectful, disloyal, and unfilial, do the elders think so? ”

Tang Seng was in a cold sweat, and his thoughts were racing rapidly, thinking about how to deal with it.

If he wants to veto it, doesn't it mean that it is wrong for him to reprimand Sun Wukong?

Without waiting for Tang Seng to speak, Gu Ming said again: "Ask the elders again, can flowers and trees have life?" ”

"This ...... Naturally, there is. ”

"Okay, then the question is, you always say that you don't kill or kill all day long, so what do you eat? You've always eaten wild fruits, right?

Isn't the wild fruit life?

If you eat wild fruit, it means that you have killed......"

"This ...... This naturally can't be compared......" Tang Seng said anxiously.

"How can it not be compared? Didn't you just now recognize the equality of all beings?

Since they are all lives, why should they be divided into high and low?

Is the life of flowers and plants necessarily lower than that of animals? Elder Tang, you must know that there are many flower fairies in the sky, can you say that their lives are not as good as a rabbit or tiger? ”

"No...... Not so......"

Tang Seng was sweating profusely, and the rhythm was completely taken away by Gu Ming, but he didn't know how to justify the poor scriptures.

"No, that's in your heart. Because you only think what you think is right is right.

For example, a rabbit is a living life in your eyes and cannot be killed.

But a fruit in your eyes is not life, it is food.

In the same way, in the eyes of the people, rabbits, sheep, tigers, etc., may also be food.

If it's all food, why can't the elders eat it? ”

"We can't generalize about everything, we can only say that our two philosophies are different......"

"Isn't that enough, since you know that your ideas are different, then why does Elder Tang have to impose your own ideas on others?

Everything in the world has its own rules of survival, and if you forcibly break this law, the world will inevitably be in chaos.

Heaven and earth for hundreds of millions of years, nothing is immutable.

So, elders sometimes need to learn to be flexible, not to be stubborn, and to prioritize everything.

Your mission this time is to go to the west to learn the scriptures, not to be eaten by wild beasts and killed by robbers on the way.

Goku protects you along the way, whether it's killing beasts or robbers, all for the purpose of keeping you safe.

But you don't appreciate it, and if you blindly accuse, it will inevitably seem too pedantic, and if you say it seriously, it will inevitably give people a feeling of narrow-mindedness......

If even you can't have the world in mind...... If you don't take this scripture, you can return to Chang'an and recite the scriptures behind closed doors all day long. ”

Gu Ming's call was quite serious, which suddenly made Tang Seng feel that he couldn't get off the stage, his face turned red, and he couldn't find a good reason to refute.

At the same time, he was also reflecting on Gu Ming's words.

Although there are some strong words, it is not unreasonable.

Maybe it's true that he's too pedantic......

The journey was so difficult and dangerous that most of the dozens of guards who followed him at the beginning became dry bones.

Some were killed by robbers, others were swallowed by wild beasts.

What did they do wrong?

If it weren't for protecting him, why would this unwarranted disaster come about?

If you look closely, these people all died because of him, so what kind of karma should he bear?

At this moment, Tang Seng's mood finally began to fluctuate, and some subtle changes began to occur......
