Chapter 13: Departure and Return
The next day, Sun Wukong realized and cultivated under a waterfall in the back mountain.
"Goku." The Bodhi Patriarch held the dust in his hand and appeared in the distance.
"Disciple to meet Master." Sun Wukong's figure flashed, and he came close to salute.
"You've been enlightened for a year, how are you doing with your Dao enlightenment?" Patriarch Bodhi asked with a smile.
"The disciple first learned from the master's teachings, and realized the stick way, and now he has a realm." Sun Wukong said with a smile, "In addition, the disciple also learned the archery method from the woodcutter who chopped wood, so he realized the law of archery, and after a year of enlightenment, he also has a realm." ”
Patriarch Bodhi waved his hand and paused for a moment, then stroked his beard and said, "Okay, okay, then I'll rest assured, you can go down the mountain." ”
"Down the mountain?" Sun Wukong subconsciously turned around, but quickly reacted, scratched his face and said, "Master, the disciple only came back from the woodcutter's house yesterday. ”
"Where are you from?" Patriarch Bodhi asked.
"The disciple is from Dongsheng Shenzhou, Aolai Guohua, Guohua, Guoshan, and Shui Curtain Cave." Sun Wukong hurriedly said, he already understood something in his heart.
Master wants to drive him down the mountain?
Before learning the way of killing last time, the wise Honghuang know-it-all predecessor had inadvertently revealed that he would be driven down the mountain by his ancestor because of his skills.
So he studied hard this year, and never showed his ability in front of all the senior brothers, why did the master still drive him away?
Sure enough, I heard the Bodhi Patriarch say: "Wherever you come from, go back, you have been here for ten years, and it is time to go down the mountain." ”
"Master, the disciple inherits the great kindness taught by the master, and has not repaid the slightest bit, how can he leave!" Sun Wukong said sincerely, "Besides, the disciple has not yet learned to perfection, how can he leave?" ”
"Talk about repaying the favor." Patriarch Bodhi sighed, "The teacher preaches and receives karma to solve doubts, I just did what I should do, you can learn well, and you don't use the skills you have learned to do evil, it is the best reward."
As for continuing to practice, you have achieved your skills, and I have nothing more to teach you.
As long as you don't forget your cultivation aspirations in the future, you will be able to reach the realm of mixed yuan sooner or later. ”
Sun Wukong saw that the patriarch was resolute, and there was no room for him, so he could only give up, probably this is the future that cannot be changed.
"Master's teachings, disciples take to heart." He saluted again, and his heart was inevitably sad.
After going up the mountain for ten years, although he only practiced with his master for three years, these three years made him really feel the kindness of his master.
The master gave him his name and never hid it from him.
Whatever he wants to learn, the master will teach, and he will not ask for anything in return.
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong was reluctant to say: "Master, the disciple will definitely come to visit often in the future." ”
"It doesn't have to be this way, we will meet each other by fate." Patriarch Bodhi said, "It's just that there is still a word to give." ”
"Master, please speak." Sun Wukong hurriedly said.
"I've said that before." Bodhi Patriarch Zhengse said, "I hope you can control your heart in the future, do more good deeds, and do not do evil, even if you suffer and experience great sorrow, you can't fall into the devil's way, otherwise I will not spare you!" ”
"The disciple has written it down!" Sun Wukong saluted seriously.
"Go ahead." Patriarch Bodhi waved the dust, turned around and disappeared.
"Master, the disciple is gone." Sun Wukong fell to the ground again, and it took a long time to get up, and then he raised a somersault cloud and went back to the East China Sea.
On the top of Fangcun Mountain, the Bodhi Patriarch and the woodcutter looked into the distance, watching the cloud disappear before retracting their gaze.
One of them was puzzled, and the other was surprised.
"It's just that he comprehends the law of the stick path, when will he comprehend the law of the arrow path again?" The woodcutter did not hide the surprise in his heart, "It's only been a year, it's been a year!"
He had even cultivated the two Great Dao Laws to the first level! ”
"I can't see through it either." Patriarch Bodhi shook his head.
Previously, when Sun Wukong wanted to learn the way of killing, he took advantage of the situation to introduce it into the way of the law and taught the cultivation of the stick method, thinking that this apprentice with excellent understanding would be able to enter the stick path in three or five years.
Unexpectedly, Sun Wukong's Dao cultivation far exceeded his expectations.
There are three thousand avenues, and each avenue has twelve realms.
As long as you can comprehend the first realm of any of the Great Dao Laws, and at the same time cultivate to the perfection of Daluo, you will have the opportunity to break through and become a quasi-Saint Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal.
This means that there is no difficulty in the quasi-saint realm in front of Sun Wukong, and it will be completed as long as Da Luo is consummated.
The woodcutter calmed the shock in his heart for a moment, and then noticed that a little worry flashed in the ancestor's eyes.
"Master is still worried?" He asked.
"He has his way to go, what am I worried about." Bodhi Patriarch said, "Besides, with Wukong's strength, in today's Three Realms, only he can bully others, unless those who are shameless want to bully the small." ”
"Master is worried about him falling into the devil, right?" The woodcutter is unsympathetic to expose.
"yes." Patriarch Bodhi sighed, "He is innocent and simple, his mind is still undecided, and he is more happy and angry, so he can become an immortal or a demon." ”
"I don't think I have to worry about that." The woodcutter shook his head, "Although the little junior brother has an undetermined heart, he has a clear distinction between good and evil, jealousy and hatred, and often acts as good as others, and takes pleasure in helping others.
What's more, if he doesn't go through ups and downs and tribulations, and he doesn't have a thorough understanding, how can he understand the chess game and turn over to be the chess player. ”
"You've seen it so well, I should have kicked you out too." Patriarch Bodhi glanced at him.
"I'm at ease now, Master spare me." The woodcutter hurriedly said goodbye, waved his hand to make a hole in the void, and left as if he had fled.
On the other side, Sun Wukong drove a somersault cloud, and in less than an hour, he returned from Fangcun Mountain in Xiniu Hezhou to Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Standing in the clouds at this time, I saw the Xianshan Island located on the shore of the sea from a distance.
Sun Wukong has dissipated the depression of the previous parting, and has become happy, and even more secretly complacent.
When I went, I held a raft, crossed the sea by the wind, traveled to seek the way in Nanbu Zhou, crossed the West Sea, and landed on the shore to seek immortals in Xiniu Hezhou, and finally arrived at Fangcun Mountain.
It took seventeen or eighteen years to get along the way.
Now it took less than an hour to come back.
He is immortal, and he has become stronger, and from now on he can truly be at ease, and he will share the wonder of immortality with his children!
Thinking of this, Sun Wukong pressed the cloud head, went to Huaguo Mountain, looked for a way, and went to the Water Curtain Cave.
Suddenly, he heard a cry of cranes and apes, and the voice was very sad.
Wukong was so worried when he heard this, he immediately shouted, "Children, come out, come out!" ”
"The king is coming, the king is coming!"
I only heard many voices, and there were tens of thousands of large and small monkeys jumping out of the cliff on the edge of the rock, among the flowers, and in the woods.
They surrounded Sun Wukong and complained about their grievances.
"King, why have you been gone for a long time, we often look forward to your return!"
"King, recently, a demon has often come to bully us and others, and he wants to forcibly occupy our Water Curtain Cave, and we are fighting to the death to keep the cave."
"Yes, my lord, that guy has recently robbed us of the house fire in our cave, captured many of our sons and nephews, and kept us awake day and night."
"King, fortunately you're back, if you don't come in a few more years, I'll be someone else's with the cave."
When Sun Wukong heard this, he was immediately furious: "What kind of demon dares to act so boldly? Tell me about it, and wait for me to seek revenge on him!" ”
An old monkey said: "Great King, that guy calls himself the Demon King of the Mixed World, and lives in a place that has been going north. ”
Sun Wukong asked again: "How long is the distance to him here?" ”
The monkeys were still frightened, and one monkey said, "When he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he comes, when he comes, when he goes, when he come ”
Sun Wukong comforted the monkeys: "In this case, you should not be afraid, and play by yourself, waiting for me to find him!" ”
Then he jumped up, raised a somersault cloud, and went straight north.
Halfway through, Sun Wukong stood on the head of the clouds, as if he remembered something.
He often consults with his predecessors in Zhihu's netizens, and now he is no longer an ignorant person without scheming.
"It's strange, Lao Sun has been away for more than 20 years, and I don't see any demons coming over to forcibly occupy Huaguo Mountain, but when Lao Sun is coming back, this demon king of the mixed world appeared?"
"Also, since this guy can attack the Water Curtain Cave, why can he only remove the worthless family fires such as stone basins and stone bowls?"
"Well, I remember a senior said that if you think this coincidence is not a coincidence, then it is certainly not a coincidence."
