Chapter 2: The Spirit Monkey Goes to Sea
Life is precious, and freedom is even more valuable!
The stone monkey is determined to resist, he wants to break free from the shackles of fate!
A few days later, the stone monkeys had the monkeys weave a bamboo raft full of fruits, and then picked up the bamboo pole and jumped on it.
"King, do you really want to leave?"
"Can you please not go!"
The monkeys are reluctant to give up on the stone monkeys.
Although the reign was short for a short time, the knowledgeable stone monkey quickly gained the respect of the monkey pack.
In this year, the Monkey King taught them a lot of things, taking them to Huaguo Mountain, staying in the Water Curtain Cave at dusk, picking flowers in spring, and looking for fruits in summer, I don't know how happy I am, but how good, the Monkey King suddenly has to go to seek immortals.
"Time is precious and I have to go. ”
The stone monkey was also reluctant to let go of the monkeys, but he did not change his mind.
According to the records in the Book of Heaven, Sun Wukong is a spirit monkey generated by heaven and earth, and he spent hundreds of years in Huaguo Mountain before he went out to learn art.
Now that he knows his future fate, how can the stone monkey wait a few hundred more years.
While he is young now, he has to find the three-star cave of the slanting moon as soon as possible.
"Guys, I'm going!"
The stone monkey said goodbye to the monkeys, held up the bamboo pole vigorously, and the bamboo raft fluttered and slid straight to the sea.
The monkeys looked at his distant back, and they all hid their faces and cried sadly.
Not long after the stone monkey went to sea, he looked ahead, the sea was boundless, the smoke and waves were rippling, and he couldn't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.
"Old tortoise. ”
He patted the sea with a bamboo pole: "The front is northwest, right?"
"Returning to the King. ”
A sea turtle emerges from the sea.
"That's the northwest side. ”
The turtle replied.
According to the records in the book, the stone monkey chose to go to sea on the day of the southeast wind, but I don't know how long it will take to reach the southern Ganbu continent.
The scenery on the sea is always the same, and the stone monkey gets tired of seeing it in a few days, and every calm day, he lies on the bamboo raft and sleeps, and reads in his dreams.
The turtles escorted the bamboo raft, but there were no accidents.
On the way, a shrimp soldier found a bamboo raft.
"Old turtle, why are you here?"
The shrimp soldier took the long sword and swam towards the turtle: "Didn't you go to Huaguo Mountain?"
This is an acquaintance of the turtle.
"I escort the king to the Southern Ganbu Continent. ”
The turtle said to the shrimp soldier.
"The King?"
The shrimp soldier came out of the sea and looked at the bamboo raft: "That monkey is the king of your family?"
The turtle nodded: "It is the king of Huaguo Mountain apes, macaques, horse monkeys, and all monkeys." ”
"The Monkey King?"
The shrimp soldier was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Old turtle, you have been cultivating for five hundred years in vain, your head is confused, you don't go to the Dragon Palace, but go to the monkey as a human being." ”
"There is no shortage of me in the Dragon Palace. ”
The turtle didn't care, and asked rhetorically, "Aren't you on an errand in the Dragon Palace? ”
"Alas, don't mention it! The little princess of the Dragon Palace ran out to play, and everyone was looking for her. ”
The shrimp soldier's face was suddenly full of sorrow: "The dragon king is furious, if you can't find it, I don't know how many shrimp soldiers and crabs will lose their heads." ”
"I can't be lazy, I have to go to the little princess, old turtle, see you next time. ”
After the shrimp soldier finished speaking, he took the long sword and swam away.
Looking at its distant waves, the old turtle shook his head.
"The king never wants a human head. ”
The turtle thought to himself.
He originally wanted to go to the Dragon Palace on an errand, but the masters of the Dragon Palace didn't take the life of a little demon like him seriously at all.
The Monkey King is different, he has only been the king for one year, but he is lively and lovely, with clear rewards and punishments, which makes people happy and convinced, and many wild beasts in Huaguo Mountain have cast under his account.
The turtle has lived for five hundred years, and has seen many big monsters, but none of them are as special as the Monkey King.
The Monkey King is naturally strong, not afraid of wealth wolves, tigers and leopards, once he finds a famous teacher, he will definitely shine, and his achievements will not be lost to those dragon sons and grandchildren.
With the certainty of the future, the turtle escorted the bamboo raft all the way to the southern Ganbu Island.
"It's finally here. ”
The stone monkey jumped ashore from the bamboo raft, said goodbye to the old turtle, and walked towards the seaside.
The time when the bamboo raft approached the southern Ganbu Island was at night, and the stone monkeys thought that they could not see people on the beach, but they found that there were still some people fishing and digging clams in the night.
It is recorded in the Book of Heaven that after Sun Wukong went ashore, he made a trick to scare human beings into throwing baskets and abandoning nets and running in all directions, Sun Wukong grabbed a man who couldn't run, stripped him of his clothes and put them on his body.
The stone monkey calculated the difficulties it would encounter in advance, so naturally there was no need to pretend to be a tiger.
He had the monkeys weave a tiger fur coat and put on a tiger fur hat before going ashore, revealing only a pair of round eyes.
The stone monkey asks a man by the sea for directions, and the man notices his clothes, tiger skins are not something ordinary people can afford.
The man thought that the stone monkey was the young master of a wealthy family, so he didn't dare to slack off, and answered him 1510.
The stone monkey said hello and was about to leave, but he noticed that many humans were gathered in the distance, talking about what they were doing.
The stubborn stone monkey walked over and heard someone ask for a surprising price.
It turned out that two fishermen caught a big stranded fish on the beach, but the fish was so big that no one dared to buy it.
When the stone monkey squeezed through the crowd and entered, he happened to hear an old man with a white beard say, "This fish is too big, can you cut it open and sell it for nothing?"
The stone monkey looked at the ground, and sure enough, there was a one-meter-long fish lying on the ground, caught in a net and unable to move.
"It was in tears. ”
The stone monkey saw two strings of crystal tears in the eyes of the big fish: "Let it go." ”
"Released?"
The two fishermen were very angry: "How can you let it go, if you don't want to buy it, get out of the way." ”
They picked up two meat axes and were to follow the old man's advice to chop the fish to pieces.
"Wait......"
The stone monkey stopped them, then took out a pearl from his pocket: "I'll exchange this for you." ”
At the sight of the pearl, the eyes of the two fishermen straightened.
"Okay, okay, let's change!"
The fisherman threw the axe away and took the pearl in ecstasy.
In order to adapt to human society, the stone monkeys asked the monkeys to find some pearls in advance, which are not scarce in Huaguo Mountain.
The stone monkey asked the two fishermen to release the big fish back into the sea.
The big fish touched the sea, made a splash with its tail, and after swimming some distance, it turned around and looked at the stone monkey with gratitude.
"Don't go ashore in the future. ”
The stone monkey waved at it, and a pair of innocent eyes shone in the moonlight like stars.
The big fish looked at the stone monkey for a while, seemed to remember him, and then dived into the sea and disappeared.
The stone monkey did a good deed, and walked towards the town in a good mood.
Shortly after he left, a small novice came to the beach.
"Strange. ”
The little novice looked around: "The Bodhisattva asked me to save a fish, where did it go?"
A gust of wind blew, and the little novice suddenly moved in his heart, and he spread out his palm, and the broken silver in his palm turned into a handful of incense ash, which was blown away by the wind.
"Come back. ”
The voice of Guanyin Bodhisattva reached Shami's ears.
"The dragon girl is no longer with me. ”
