[Journey to the West] Wait for me, big brother

Sun Wukong wandered around aimlessly on the cloud, sometimes he took out the gatha to look at, and sometimes he picked up the jug and drank a couple of mouthfuls, before he knew it, he became a little tipsy, lying on the cloud with his head stretched all over the place, thinking wildly.

I don't know how long it took to fly, but the sky was getting darker and darker, Sun Wukong half sat up with his elbows propped up and looked around.I saw a high mountain below, with beautiful scenery, green pines and cypresses.

"This, this is!" Sun Wukong sat up abruptly when he saw the mountain for the first time, and moved the auspicious clouds to move forward seven or eight miles, and saw a cave in the distance.I saw the cave door closed tightly and there was no sound.Next to it stands a stone tablet with ten large characters written on it.

"Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai, Slanting Moon and Three Star Cave..."

Monkey King jumped down from the clouds, walked up to the stele, looked at the words on the stele, his eyes were moist.

Walking to the gate of the mountain, he straightened his clothes and dusted off the dust before Sun Wukong put his hand on the door knocker and knocked a few times, loudly saying: "Disciple Sun Wukong, please see Patriarch Bodhi!"

After shouting three times without answering, Sun Wukong lowered his head and sighed, then opened the door and walked in.

Pass through the Yaotai where the scriptures are preached, walk through the corridor where you go to sleep, and follow the path in your memory to the bedroom of Patriarch Bodhi.

Pushing the door open, I saw that the futon that I knelt on that day was still in its original position, and in front of the futon was the sleeping bed of my benefactor, Patriarch Bodhi.

Sun Wukong took two steps and knelt on the futon, feeling countless grievances and tiredness welling up in his heart, slowly bent down, lay down on the futon and fell into a deep sleep.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult! The way is the most mysterious, don't take the golden elixir lightly. If you don't meet the best people to pass on the secret formula, empty words will make your mouth dry and your tongue dry!"

While I was sleeping soundly, someone suddenly chanted loudly in my ear.Sun Wukong didn't even think about it and said: "Master, I have been kneeling here for a long time." After saying this, he realized something was wrong, Ji Lingling shivered, turned over and sat up, and saw a person sitting on the bed.

I saw that person wearing a Taoist crown on his head, wearing a white Taoist robe, holding a dust whisk in his hand, whether it was the Bodhi Patriarch or something.

"Teacher, Patriarch!" Sun Wukong saw Patriarch Bodhi for the first time, feeling both sad and happy, and couldn't help sobbing, "Patriarch, are you willing to see your disciple?"

Patriarch Bodhi twirled his beard with his hand and said with a slight smile, "You hozen, why don't you sleep in your own temple and come to my side?"

Sun Wukong saw that Patriarch Bodhi's face was kind, just like when he was learning Taoism that day, he knelt at the feet of Patriarch Bodhi as if he had seen his relatives, and poured out all the hardships of the past hundred years.

Unexpectedly, the patriarch didn't say a word after listening, just took out a ruler from under the pillow, and lightly hit Sun Wukong on the head three times.

These few blows were not heavy, even if they were heavier, Sun Wukong's head would still be able to bear it, but he was stunned by these blows: "Patriarch, why are you beating your disciple?"

The patriarch pointed at it with a ruler, and reprimanded: "It is in vain that you made troubles in the heavenly palace and the peach feast; you went down to the underworld, privately destroyed the book of life and death; you proclaimed yourself the great sage equal to heaven. Even the Tathagata is not in your eyes, and now you have done it." Fighting and defeating Buddha, but this courage is small."

"Uh, what the Patriarch means..." Sun Wukong blinked his golden eyes, a little confused about the meaning of the Patriarch.

The Patriarch didn't continue talking, but changed the subject: "Do you know the meaning of Lingtai and Fangcun?"

Sun Wukong shook his head: "I don't know."

"Three points appear like stars, and a hook looks like the slant of the moon. From here comes the fur, and he is also the one to become a Buddha." The patriarch stretched out his hand and stroked Sun Wukong's head. Xiaoyao Dao, the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are like one family. Everything is within the square inch of the spiritual platform in your heart. I let you practice the law that day, that is to cultivate the heart. Since you have conferred the title of fighting and defeating the Buddha, you should have your own method to go to universal salvation All living beings. What Jin Chanzi taught you may not be wrong. It was only because you were stubborn back then that you bound yourself with these things. Today you are able to distinguish good from evil and right from wrong. You already have your own way in your heart, so why stick to the situation .”

These words were like enlightenment, and Sun Wukong suddenly became enlightened, and the depression in his heart was swept away, and he was so happy that he bowed up: "Disciple knows what to do!"

When I raised my head again, there was nowhere the figure of Patriarch Bodhi.

"Patriarch? Patriarch!"

Sun Wukong yelled, opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that he was still lying on the futon, it turned out to be Nankey Yimeng.

Standing up, Sun Wukong walked around the bed three times without giving up, the bed was clean and tidy, without a single wrinkle, no one had sat on it at all.

"It really is a dream, why is Patriarch willing to see me?" Sun Wukong sat down on the couch with his head down.When I glanced inadvertently, I saw something seemed to be pressed under the pillow.

Climb up on the bed, open the pillow, and see that it is a ruler.

"This, isn't this the patriarch hitting my ruler in a dream just now?" Sun Wukong held the ruler in wonder whether it was just a dream of his own, or the patriarch really came.

Holding the ruler out for a while, Sun Wukong thought, since the patriarch met him in a dream, he naturally didn't want to break the oath that he would not see him that day. No matter what, it is good that the patriarch is willing to see him.

He stood up and was about to go out, but when he turned around, he saw a plate with a few peaches on the small coffee table next to the bed.

Sun Wukong just had a drink, his mouth was dry, he didn't even think about it, he picked up the peach and ate it.Unexpectedly, shed tears while eating.It turned out that the peaches were exactly the peaches on Rotten Peach Mountain that he had eaten when he was studying art that day. As expected, the patriarch had come here just now.

Sun Wukong knelt on the futon again, kowtowed three times to the couch: "Thank you, Patriarch, for instructing the disciples!" After finishing speaking, he reluctantly left the bedroom and walked out of the Sanxing Cave.

He waved his hand in the air, and the cloud floated over again just now, and stopped in front of Monkey King.

Just as Monkey King raised his foot and was about to go up, he lowered his head to look at the cloud, and suddenly became very disgusted, and scattered the cloud with a wave of his hand.

He put his thumb and forefinger to his lips and blew a loud whistle.After a while, I saw a cloud flying towards Sun Wukong, stopped in front of Monkey King, and even rubbed against his feet twice, very intimately.

Sun Wukong jumped onto the somersault cloud, lowered his head and said, "Old friend, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Today you have to drive Lao Sun to have a good time!"

Somersault Yun understood, and swished into the air, turned several somersaults in a row, and then flew forward at full speed.

"Hahahaha!!!" Sun Wukong laughed loudly, "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

Somersaulting Cloud ran with all his strength in the air, leaving the birds and some slow-flying immortals far behind.

Sun Wukong stepped on the cloud twice, and said loudly: "Do you still remember the way to the Heavenly Palace? Let's go up and meet old friends!"

Somersault Yun stood upright, flew high at full speed, and went straight to the Nine Heavens.

The author has something to say:

Zhu Wuneng: I'm not happy because I didn't appear in this chapter.

Author: In the next chapter, we may consider letting you appear in memories.

Pig Wu Neng:  …

Not being able to meet Patriarch Bodhi is probably the saddest thing for the Great Sage. I want to let them meet in this story, even in a dream.

PS: In the next chapter, the great sage Gaoshuai warns~
