Chapter 9 Chapter 09

antecedent five hundred years ago "Do you know that this sky is a desert." Zixia said, "It is inlaid with exquisite things, but when they become part of the Heavenly Palace, they have been deprived of their souls. Do you know?" No one answered because there was no one around her. If someone was around, she wouldn't say these words again.She always smiles, looks around with a smile, talks to them with a smile, smiles all the time.Until the strong colors of the sunset gradually died, the sky was no longer transparent, and the black sky separated her gaze from looking down on the world. At this time, all the gods returned to their palaces, and only she stood alone on the edge of the increasingly cold clouds , no one will come to tell her to go back, no one will pay attention to her, at this time, she starts talking alone.

"Did you know? They call me 'Zixia who always smiles, but no one smiles forever, except stone statues and fools. You know?" She said seriously, looking at the boundless darkness with her eyes.Did she ever think about one day telling those words to another person?Had she been waiting for the day when someone would stand by his side and listen to everything she had to say? "Just listen like this, don't interrupt me, I will tell you everything, don't laugh impatiently like Erlangshen, and don't retort like Tianpeng, they will definitely do this, so I only tell you what to say, only you can listen silently like this, in this world, only you can..."

She is still persistently saying that beside her is endless nothingness that has been condensed by the coldness of the universe at night. This day, Zixia had been standing on the edge of the sky for a long time. When she walked back, she thought that the silence had already attached to her body, so she hurried back, wanting to return to the dream by the fire in Luoxia Palace go. There are no stars shining in the peach garden, but why are they so bright? There is still sound so late?Like a woman crying? Didn't Ayao and the others go to Pantaoyuan today? Zi Xiafei took a closer look, and there were a few big stars hanging in the sky above the garden, they were the most beautiful ones in the heavens, but stars cannot move casually, who is so bold?

There is a girl in the garden who is crying at A Yao, what is that thing jumping up and down around her?a monkey? "Little girl, how long are you going to cry? I'm just joking with you." "Woooo...don't! You've eaten all our peaches, and you're still immobilizing others...Woooo...I'm going to sue you to the Queen Mother..." "Go and sue! My old grandson is not afraid...I'm afraid you won't go! You have been crying for hours...ah? The water is rising, help me! My little friend, my grandson is already very sleepy and needs to be shut down." The garden is gone, please come to visit tomorrow, cry outside, you will affect the old grandson's rest!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" "Stingy ghost! You have to do the same with a few peaches. If you go back to Huaguo Mountain with my grandson, I will pay you ten baskets!" "Wooooow, you only ate more than ten baskets..." "Okay! Twenty baskets... a hundred baskets! A thousand baskets? Are you too dark and want to blackmail me?" "... woo woo woo, I don't want your mortal tattered peaches! I didn't pick flat peaches, and I must have been beaten to death by the queen mother when I went back... Wow~~~~~" A Yao became more and more sad as she thought about it, and she simply grinned. burst into tears.

"If she hits you, you won't hit her? If you can't beat her, you can still bite her. Why cry?" A Yao's face turned pale with anger: "You... who are you? How dare you say such things?" "I am Sun Wukong." A Yao stopped crying immediately and stared at him blankly. Monkey King, the nightmare of heaven. This name often appears in those bloody stories. In the years of war between the gods and demons, the breath of blood rushed to the sky. The three characters Sun Wukong are always associated with the fiasco of the heavenly court, like a shadow pressing on the gods. on their heads.

Because no one has ever beaten him. Because the people who fought against him can come back alive, only Liao Liao, a few outstanding people in the heaven like the third prince, can remember. It is said that he eats ten thousand people every day. Legend has it that he is as tall as a mountain. Legend has it that where he walked, nothing survived. He is standing in front of A Yao now. So A Yao froze for a while, then screamed and disappeared. Monkey King said: "What's wrong with this little girl, is my name ugly?" Zixia walked out from the forest and said with a smile: "Who would not know the prestige of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven?"

Monkey King turned to look at her: "You don't seem to be afraid of me." "Why are you afraid of you?" Sun Wukong thought for a long time: "Yes, why are you afraid of me? If the gods in the heavens think like you, my old grandson doesn't have to stay in the garden all day to plant trees." "These trees are growing well? You must know gardening?" "Bah! Gardening? What is it? I only know that there are not many spiritual things in the sky these days. One is the trees in the peach garden, and the other is the horses of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. They need to be treated as friends."

"Trees and horses are your friends, and the sky is full of gods and Buddhas, but none of them have spirituality?" "Ha! If you have spirituality, you will not be able to realize this Tao, and you will not be able to become a fairy." "It's the first time I've heard of it." "It's what my master told me. To ascend to immortality and become a Buddha, you must first have no desires and no desires. I don't think that's like a dead person." "Hey, in the realm of the gods, there is no sadness or joy, how do you know. Who is your master?"

"The old man said, don't mention his name." "I think there are not many people who can teach you such a supernaturally powerful apprentice who doesn't understand the Dharma, so it can be counted." "Oh, let's do the math." "In today's three worlds, those with the highest skills and spells are all in the heavens, and the Tathagata of the Western Paradise is the most important one. Of course, you will not be his apprentice." "It's not unusual for him to accept me." "The person with the second mana is Tathagata's second disciple Jin Chanzi, but he questioned Tathagata's Dharma, practiced a method by himself, and tried to surpass Tathagata, but was cast by Tathagata to make him go crazy, and his soul fell into the world. I don't know where. You must not be his apprentice either."

"Do you even recognize him?" "The third one is the Patriarch Sanxian Bodhi. Speaking of him, he is also one of the first ancestors of Buddhism, but his teachings are different from Tathagata. Tathagata majors in the afterlife, but he wants to practice this life. Living in seclusion overseas, he accepts disciples only to watch Aptitude, but don't ask about moral character, less people are accepted, and even fewer can become teachers. It's not like Tathagata has a lot of disciples. Except for these three, no one in the world can teach you. Then who is your master? say?" “……………………………” "Alas." Zixia sighed, "It's a pity that Bodhi taught you spells, but he didn't lead you to enlightenment. It must be impossible to enlighten you. It is for you to enlighten yourself, and I am afraid that you will be obsessed and go astray, so I ordered you Do not speak his name." "But it's not." Sun Wukong said, "It's just because the master said that I wanted to learn the way of indestructibility, but he didn't teach me, so I didn't get his true biography, so I can't say that I'm his apprentice, but also say The real master who can teach me is in the mortal world, and told me to find him myself. But I thought, this old man must be unable to teach me, so I used this word to coax me." "..." "Little girl, you'd better go and come with me, your parents are going to scold you!" "I don't have parents, I was transformed from the purple clouds in the western sky." "Oh?" Sun Wukong took a peach and took a bite, "Unlucky motherless child!" "Who are you talking about?" "Talk about myself, okay?" Sun Wukong turned over and lay down on another tree, "Come on, I don't have time to play with you." "I'll come and play with you later, okay?" "No! What's the fun with girls? You come here, aren't you afraid I'll eat you?" Zixia smiled and disappeared in the white clouds. Monkey King yawned a hundred times on the tree, but still couldn't sleep. "It's so boring, so boring! I'm going to find someone to fight with!" He jumped out of the peach orchard, but saw Zixia still sitting beside the clouds, her eyes lost in thought. "Little girl, you can't find your way home? If you want to cry, don't squat at my door. Others think I have a purple dog guarding the door!" Zixia stood up slowly and looked back at him. "I used to sit for ten thousand years, and no one would take care of me." "Really, I'm busy, so let's go." Monkey King disappeared. "Hey, this place is not bad, it's shiny, like the East China Sea in front of Huaguo Mountain." Sun Wukong said by the Tianhe. "Let me grab some and bring them home to play with the kids." So he began to fish here and there in the Milky Way.The silver stars in Tianhe were disturbed by him. "Quickly stop." But someone shouted. When Sun Wukong raised his head, he saw a tall young man standing in front of him, with a handsome face and wings growing behind him. "I thought the heavens were full of old men with white beards." Sun Wukong said. "The appearance of the gods in the Tiangong is determined by their own wishes. If they don't like old age in their hearts, people will naturally not look old. The canopy of the patron saint of the Tianhe River, and the silver stars in the river, have been carefully arranged for thousands of years to become like this. Shangxian Just don't mess with him." "Ha! What the old grandson hates most is being well-behaved. The more immovable something is, the more he has to move it!" The stars are scattered. "Stop!" Tianpeng yelled, and as soon as he jumped in front of Monkey King, he grabbed the golden cudgel with a slap of his hand. "There are really not many people in this world who can catch Lao Sun's weapon. Hey, my forehand is itchy. Even if you don't want to fight today, I won't let you go!" Monkey King shook his stick after saying that, and the two fought together. In this fight, only a vortex appeared in the Milky Way, which turned bigger and bigger, and had the potential to upset the entire Milky Way. Seeing that the entire Milky Way was thrown into chaos, the canopy was anxious and angry, and was afraid that the stars would be messed up even more, so he was swept down by Monkey King's kick in his heart, and when he got up again, the golden cudgel was already pointing to the top of his head. "Are you convinced?" Sun Wukong said with a smile. "Do you know what you did? You broke them apart, and it took tens of thousands of years of hard work to make it!" Canopy roared. "What kind of grains, a few grains of silver sand, should be like this, but like a woman." "I'll fight with you!" Canopy pushed away the golden cudgel and pounced on it again. He was resentful in his heart, and he had no way to move. After a few moves, he was knocked down by Monkey King again. "Do you still want to fight?" "Why don't you fight!" So twenty-seven times. "I haven't seen you beat like this before." Sun Wukong panted, "If you can get up this time, Lao Sun will admire you!" "I'm going to stand up even if I die..." Canopy gritted his teeth and propped himself up. "Hey, why bother? Let's compete in martial arts. It's over if you admit defeat. You're going to be like an enemy!" "You broke my most beloved thing and ruined my home, I will not forgive you!" "Why can't we live in this place? Although it's a bit messy, it's no better than my old grandson's Shuilian Cave, so be careful!" "You don't understand...you don't have love in your heart, how can you know how to cherish the word!" "What a mess, you better hurry up, Lao Sun will be hungry when you get up!" At this time, a woman in white clothes fell into the Milky Way in the sky. With a scream, she rushed to the canopy and hugged him. "What's wrong with you? Why did you become like this?" the woman said heartbroken, with tears in her eyes. "It's okay, Ah Yue." The corner of Tianpeng's mouth was bleeding, and he smiled reluctantly.He looked at Sun Wukong again: "He messed up the stars of your creation, I will never spare him!" "Fool, fool, what does it matter if the stars are messed up?" "But, that was your painstaking effort for many years. You have been doing this all your life, but only one day... I am useless, useless!" Canopy felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to hit his head on the ground. Ah Yue supported his head and said: "I say you are stupid, in fact, I spent so much time making stars and galaxies, and you are the only one who appreciates them. I put them one by one, just because you are happy to see them... What do I really care about in my heart, don't you understand?" Tian Peng laughed, this time he smiled sincerely, he leaned against Ah Yue's arms like a child, Ah Yue stroked his head, tears dripped down his hair. Sun Wukong suddenly felt strange in his heart: "Hey, are you pretending that I don't exist?" No one paid him any attention.Wherever he went, people were either terrified or extremely respectful. This was the first time he had seen such a scene. "They don't care about me! They only see themselves." Maybe everyone thinks that this world exists for him alone when he is born, and when he finds out that he is wrong, he begins to grow up. "Monkey, you go, I don't hate you anymore." Canopy said. "Hmph! I don't believe it! When my grandson wants to hate someone, he will remember him for the rest of his life. Why do you say that if you don't hate, you don't hate? The change is so fast." "You don't understand!" Canopy said. "Tell me one more thing that my old grandson doesn't understand! I am skilled in seventy-two changes, and I am proficient in all spells. How can I not understand?" "This is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven." Ah Yue said, "I heard that you were born in a stone. I'm afraid that people's thoughts are different from yours. You may be missing one of them." "Are you scolding my old grandson for being short-sighted?" "You are not the same as us. People are born lacking, and they will feel uneasy when they are born. So they seek to make up for it all their lives. God is actually lacking, but God eliminates the desire to seek, so that the heart feels complete. I don't want to lie to myself, but you really don't seem to have such anxiety, because you are a natural thing. Maybe one day, you will understand that when you see... there is another shadow in your soul time," Canopy said. "I don't understand... I hate dumb fans the most! Back then, my master liked this too, and they all came to play tricks on my grandson..." Sun Wukong said to himself, turned and walked out of Tianhe.This time he didn't fly, but walked out slowly. Ah Yue looked at Sun Wukong's back, and couldn't help saying: "This person seems to be..." "What?" Canopy asked. "I don't know. Leave him alone." Monkey King returned to Pantaoyuan and saw that Zixia was still standing beside the clouds. "You've been standing all day, what are you looking at?" Sun Wukong couldn't help asking. "Why do you ask me?" Zixia asked. "How do I know why I'm asking you! I'm really unlucky today, and some weird people say weird things. It seems that it's not suitable to go out today." "Why don't others ask me what I watch? You ask me what I watch?" "I can't stand it! I'm a quick talker, okay?" "Do you care about me?" "Why do I care about you? When I was in Huaguo Mountain, I saw a dog on the side of the road, and I wanted to go up and say hello." "You really are different from them." "You just noticed? I have hair." "I've always liked to stand here. For tens of thousands of years, only you asked me what I was doing." "But I do want to know what you're doing!" "Why don't they want to know but you want to know?" "Why do you ask why? If I knew why, wouldn't I tell you why?" "Because you have 'thinking, you have a soul.' Zixia said. Sun Wukong was stunned again.
