Chapter 2 Hands can pick the stars
"Do you see the countless stars in the sky?"
"Hmm...... See, the stars are so beautiful......" The monkey stretched out his hand, and it felt like the stars were above his head as if he could take them off with his hand, but then he found that the stars were so far away, that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach them.
"Do you know how many stars there are in the sky?"
"I don't know. ”
"You count?"
"I won't. ”
"One finger is one, two fingers, two fingers, two or three fingers......"
"I know, it's three. The monkey stretched out three furry fingers, "Four is four, five is five...... Ten ......"
"And then?"
"Ten, ten......" After stretching out ten fingers, the monkey found that he no longer had any extra fingers to count, so he looked at Wang Chen a little blankly and quietly sold a cute ......
"You still have toes......" Wang Chen laughed, his smile a little evil.
"Yes......" The monkey looked at his feet and began to count again, "Eleven, twelve......"
But soon, the ten toes were also counted, and the monkey looked at Wang Cheng again in a daze.
"Why don't you count the stars in the sky?" Wang Chen laughed.
"Oh, yes......" The monkey patted his head and looked at the countless flickering names in the sky.
"Ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, billion......" Wang Chen yawned, "Monkey, count slowly, I'll go back to sleep." ”
Leaving the monkey with a chic and leisurely back, Wang Cheng lazily walked to the entrance of the cave in front of him with a wooden sword, while the monkey still counted carefully one by one as if he hadn't heard Wang Chen speak......
It's been five days since it was born, and it's never found anything that can be counted like that......
..................................................................
Huaguo Mountain is located in the country of Aolai in Dongsheng Shenzhou, which is a mountain in the sea. The four seasons in the mountains are like spring, and the grass and trees are evergreen but not yellow, prosperous but not decaying......
When the sun was in the middle of the day, Wang Chen slowly walked out of the cave, came to the cliff and stretched his waist habitually, and then touched the wooden sword in his hand and looked at the sky.
Today's weather is cloudy, the sea is filled with hazy fog, and some unnamed birds shuttle through the fog, sometimes spreading their wings and flying high, sometimes closing their wings and rushing into the sea......
"I don't know how my kendo will be compared to those legendary people, is it vulnerable, or can I compete?" There are too many monsters and mythological characters in Journey to the West, demons and immortals, Buddha and Tao, plus saints above Buddhism......
This world is not stable, as long as you enter the game, you will go step by step according to the route prescribed by the saint.
"The monkey has been born, and I am afraid that the Three Realms will be disturbed soon, and the grass and trees of Huaguo Mountain will also be destroyed because of this monkey...... Shouldn't I, a sword learner, do something?"
Before Wang Chen crossed over, the images of Sun Monkey in many works of art were different, or evil and resentful, or gritted teeth like ghosts, or disobeyed the world only for the Monkey King......
After the monkey made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, he was happy, but Huaguo Mountain was in trouble, none of those heavenly soldiers and generals were good things, just like a certain tube in later generations, they could be beaten, and they could be smashed......
"However, the monkey is destined to leave the sea to find the master, and what about me?" Wang Chen stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the boundless ocean in the distance, a little confusion flashed in his heart, he was different from the monkey, the monkey is now full of novelty in everything in this world to explore the world, but he knows a little bit of the essence of this world, and because he knows, he is a little bolder.
"Friend, what are you talking about?" The monkey jumped over from not far away, and saw Wang Chen looking into the distance with his hands on his shoulders, a little curious.
"It's nothing, it's just a little emotional...... "The tide rises and falls, time will not pass because of your blankness, it seems to be slow, but it is constantly passing......
"Don't sigh, friend, I found a very strange place next to the waterfall, I always felt that something was calling me in that place, but I couldn't jump in, is there any way you can make me jump over?" the monkey scratched his ears, and then looked at Wang Chen.
"Oh?" Wang Cheng was stunned, could it be that the waterfall was the legendary Water Curtain Cave, "Take me to see it." ”
"Hmm. ”
The monkey jumped and grabbed the branch and ran forward, looking impatient, while Wang Chen slowly followed the monkey with a smile on his face.
After passing through a wooded path, Wang Chen heard the sound of a waterfall, accompanied by the sound of the waterfall and the noise of a group of monkeys, and the noise of the monkeys made Wang Chen more sure that there was a water curtain cave ahead.
"Little monkey, are you here, is he?" a horse monkey with a black body glanced at Wang Chen vigilantly, and then asked at the stone monkey.
"He's my friend, I'll take him to see the treasure here!"
"He's not a monkey?"
"Well, he's a hairless monkey......"
"......" Wang Chen was instantly dumbfounded when he heard the monkeys talking like this, but he didn't deny anything, didn't humans themselves evolve from monkeys?
The waterfall is like a curtain along the top of Huaguo Mountain until it is hazy below, and the splash is dozens of feet high
"Oh, friend, I just saw a flash in this hole, and there must be treasures in it, but none of us were able to jump over it and look at it...... If anyone can jump over, we are willing to call him the king!" the black horse monkey said slowly after seeing Wang Chen staring at the waterfall.
"Oh. Wang Chen just nodded, he didn't have much interest in the Monkey King, so naturally he wouldn't stupidly jump in to find the treasure inside......
On the other hand, the stone monkey is full of interest, and he looks like he can't sleep at night if he can't get in.
Watching the monkey try to jump, Wang Chen laughed.
"Want to go in and try it?"
"Hmm. ”
"Want to be the Monkey King?"
"I didn't ...... I just want to know who's calling me here......"
"Then jump......"
"I don't dare. The monkey shook his head as he looked at the bottomless waterfall below.
"Afraid?"
"Well, I'm afraid. ”
Wang Chen suddenly had the illusion that the monkey in front of him was not the Monkey King in the future, isn't the Monkey King not afraid of heaven and earth, how can he be afraid of jumping a waterfall now?
"If you're afraid, just give up. Wang Chen yawned and shook his head, he was going to go back to his cave to sleep.
Maybe this monkey is not the Monkey King?
"But I ...... I...... I can't give up. The stone monkey seemed to be unable to hear the noisy monkeys around him, and all he could see was Wang Chen's voice and the waterfall in front of him.
"Forget it, we monkeys can't jump over, let's scatter, it's useless if we can't get the treasure......" The horse monkey compared the distance of the waterfall and then compared the monkey's jumping ability, and then shook his head.
After the sound of the horse monkey, all the monkeys who were making a fuss felt a little disappointed, and they all felt a little disappointed, and they all had to do what to do, after all, there are too many novelties in this world for monkeys, and there is no need to worry about this thing.
Only the stone monkey stood in front of the waterfall, its legs trembling, and its heart seemed to be tormented by its fear of heights......
Give up, or skip over?
An hour passed, Wang Chen yawned and found a grass to lie down beautifully, the sun shining on his body, making him very comfortable.
Two hours had passed, and he woke up, and looked at the sunset on the horizon and the monkey that looked like a sculpture by the waterfall.
"Friend, am I going to die? Will it be endless darkness?"
"Are you afraid of death?"
"Well, I'm afraid. ”
"Then forget it, I'll go back too. Wang Chen stood up and stretched.
"But if I were to go back like this, I'd rather die!" the monkey gritted its teeth, its whole body seemed to stand up, and its voice was almost roaring, and finally, its feet arched slightly, and the whole person rushed towards the waterfall......
Flutter!
It crosses the waterfall......
It seems to see the light inside the waterfall, and it seems to see the hope inside......
It wins!
"Ahh
In the end, it was a pity that it did not grasp the stones in the waterfall and fell down the waterfall......
Perhaps, the step taken with all the courage is a failed step?
So is the attempt worth it?
Looking at the monkey that had no shadow below, Wang Chen fell into deep thought......
