Chapter Forty-Six: The Wise King

"Virtuous brother, ......"

In the Water Curtain Cave, Zhenyuan Daxian sighed for a long time: "That Golden Cicada Elder is really lost this time." ”

Sun Wukong glanced at him.

"Daxian, you deliberately didn't look for him, right?"

He didn't understand why Zhenyuan Daxian was dissatisfied with Jin Chanzi, but Jin Cicada was now on his way out of Huaguo Mountain.

"Brother Xian, I didn't let him get lost. ”

Zhenyuan Daxian smiled, and then said: "Elder Jin Cicada rarely goes to the lower realm once, and he can't stay in Huaguo Mountain all the time, he should go to the human world for a walk." ”

Sun Wukong thought to himself that this was right, he would occasionally go to the Dragon Palace and Aolai Kingdom, and the golden cicada had not left Huaguo Mountain for three years, and he was even more homely than him.

The incarnation of the golden cicada is bound by him, but after all, he is a disciple of the Buddha, and he will not have any problems walking around the world.

Sun Wukong doesn't care.

He continued to entertain Liu Heng.

At night, Zhenyuan Daxian, who didn't see the golden cicada, felt that his ears were clear, and hurriedly pulled Sun Wukong to talk about the avenue.

"Come along, too. ”

Sun Wukong saw Liu Heng's curious look at the baby, so he invited him to come over.

Zhenyuan Daxian didn't like mortals to interfere with their preaching, but he was in a good mood today, so he didn't say anything.

The three of them sat on the ground on the top of the mountain, and Liu Heng listened to the two people next to him talk about the fairy way, it was like a dream.

Of course, he didn't understand what they were saying, but Sun Wukong would occasionally turn around and point out a few words of mortal path, and Liu Heng woke up and quickly remembered it in his heart.

"I really want to be a Taoist!"

Liu Heng thought in his heart.

Zhenyuan Daxian seemed to hear his heart, and suddenly laughed: "You can't be it." ”

Liu Heng couldn't help it: "Monkey King, can I learn from you?"

Sun Wukong shook his head: "No, you are entangled in mundane things and can't get out." ”

He looked up at the night sky, Liu Heng followed his line of sight, and above the clear night sky, a ray of starlight gradually extinguished.

Liu Heng's heart seemed to tremble slightly.

Sun Wukong shook his head: "I'll make tea." ”

He learned the technique of the golden cicada, made a pot of tea for the two of them, and poured it into the teacup.

Liu Heng was flattered and picked up the teacup and took a sip, but the tea was not hot at all, but it was cool all over, and the sleepiness disappeared.

"How?" Sun Wukong said with a smile: "I brew this tea well, right?"

Liu Heng reacted and hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you, Monkey King Immortal Tea. ”

Sun Wukong smiled slightly, shining in the moonlight.

Liu Heng secretly admired, thinking in his heart that even if he was a real immortal, he would definitely not be as good as the Monkey King in front of him.

"It's a pity that I'm not a monster from Huaguo Mountain. Liu Heng regretted in his heart: "Otherwise, I will definitely be able to learn the Tao here." ”

"Youkai are no different from humans. ”

Sun Wukong saw through his mind and said: "People can also cultivate, but you have more important things to do." ”

He then laughed, "I'm actually very envious of humans, you have something that you're not a monster has. ”

"What's that?"

Liu Heng hurriedly asked.

Sun Wukong took a sip of tea: "Time." ”

"When?"

Liu Heng's face was puzzled.

Zhenyuan Daxian frowned, revealing a thoughtful expression.

The same time has different meanings for different races.

Sun Wukong told Liu Heng that human beings have a short lifespan, so they attach more importance to time and have extremely strong action.

Before Huaguoshan, the technology of this world was almost all invented by humans.

"Don't underestimate human beings. ”

Sun Wukong said.

He revered the human race, a small race that, in the Book of Heaven, could be industrialized in just a few hundred years.

However, in the world of monsters, despite Sun Wukong's urging, the growth of monsters is still a little slower.

The root cause here is actually the difference in the concept of time.

Liu Heng never thought that there were monsters in this world who valued humans so much.

Even the Heavenly Immortals and Buddhas may not respect them so much.

"If he were the king of men, he would be able to do good to my people. ”

Liu Heng couldn't help but think so.

With a single thought, the seed was planted, and the cause and effect were born-an important role in promoting Sun Wukong's rule in the world.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

The next day, Liu Heng bid farewell to Sun Wukong.

"Wait. ”

Before leaving, Sun Wukong called a teenager.

"You go and see. ”

He said to the boy.

The young man nodded, and turned to bend down to Liu Heng: "Please also ask the prince for guidance." ”

"No need to salute. ”

Liu Heng helped the boy up.

He then looked at Sun Wukong, his face full of doubt.

"This child is the one who sent the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" back then. ”

Sun Wukong said.

Liu Heng heard Sun Wukong talk about the origin of "The Book of Hundred Herbs", and immediately looked at the young man differently.

"Over the years, he has helped me compile the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" and has also learned a lot of knowledge. ”

Sun Wukong continued: "He is not finished, you take him back, arrange a job for him, let him increase his knowledge, and after he stays for a long time, he will naturally come back." ”

"No problem. ”

Liu Heng immediately agreed.

He said goodbye to the Monkey King repeatedly, and then left Huaguo Mountain with Liu Heng.

Watching the Huaguo Mountain gradually move away, Liu Heng, who was on the boat, couldn't help but sigh.

"After I handed over the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" to Lu, I took care of the aftermath, and then brought my mother to Huaguo Mountain to live for the rest of my life. ”

Liu Heng thought so in his heart, and his heart of seeking the Tao was still not extinguished.

Come to this Huaguo Mountain to cultivate, and the life will definitely be very lively.

Liu Heng couldn't wait to finish the work, but his return journey was not smooth, and it took half a year before he was able to return to Nanganbuzhou.

An official has been waiting for a long time.

"Lord Wang. ”

The official saluted and said, "Empress Dowager Lu has gone." ”

"What?"

Liu Heng didn't react for a while.

After reacting, his face immediately turned pale.

"Who's in charge now?"

As soon as the Empress Dowager Lu is over, won't the Lu family be in chaos?

"Don't panic. ”

The official continued: "Zhu Lu made a rebellion and was killed by Zhou Bo, the prime minister, Chen Ping, and Liu Zhang, the marquis of Zhu Xu. ”

Liu Heng was stunned.

How so.

"Then who is the emperor now?"

He hurriedly asked.

The official looked up at him: "The ministers of the DPRK and China have already discussed it, saying that you are benevolent, filial and generous, and hope that you can return to Chang'an and ascend the throne." ”

Liu Heng took a step back, and then suddenly came to his senses.

That's what the Monkey King said.

He remembered that Sun Wukong gave him a scroll before leaving, saying that it was a gift for Empress Lu.

Liu Heng opened the scroll, but only four words were written on it.

"The world is important. ”

After seeing these four words, Liu Heng sighed.

He completely understood that the Monkey King had left him for a few days, not to cultivate immortals, but to let him treat his people well.

Liu Heng's heart was complicated, he turned his head again, looked in the direction of Huaguo Mountain, and bowed three times.

Since the immortal path is not available, it should be based on the common people in the world.

Liu Heng took the words of the Monkey King to heart, and swore in his heart that he would do his best to develop technology.

Since then, Liu Heng returned to the Han Dynasty, ascended the throne as emperor, and promulgated the "Hundred Herbs Sutra".

As a result, Nan Ganbuzhou has superb medical skills, and at the same time, during Liu Heng's tenure, all walks of life have been further developed.

Everyone in Nanbu Zhou lives and works in peace and contentment, and praises Liu Heng as a virtuous king.
