[Journey to the West] The Poor Monk Xuanzang

The monkey squatted under the tree and drooled at the peach blossoms all over the tree: "Master, how many peaches do you think will bear this year?

I lay on the wicker chair and turned a page in the book in my hand: "It's only spring, what are you in a hurry for?"

The monkey picked a peach blossom and stuck it on his forehead. He looked left and right at the standing water on the ground, then raised his head and smiled at me: "Do you like it, Master?"

"...I like it." As long as you don't stick it in my forehead, you can play it however you want.

The monkey plucked a flower and pulled weeds, walked around and scratched my hair twice: "Master, won't you shave your head?"

I turned my head to avoid the monkey's hairy paw: "I want to draw a clear line with the Tathagata."

The monkey jumped up and down behind me, and scratched my shoulder-hanging hair like a chicken coop with its paws, and complained as it scratched: "It doesn't feel as good as a bald head."

I sneered, and slapped the monkey's hairy hands away: "If you mess around again, I'll shave off all your hair."

The monkey shook his body and said with a playful smile, "Master shaves himself?"

I glanced at him and closed the book in my hand: "Come here and let me try."

The monkey laughed straight: "Master, you must have thought that reading a few Buddhist scriptures would solve the curse."

"Who told you that I read Buddhist scriptures?" I rubbed my eyes, "I read the life records of the Buddha." Although I have read it before, I can't remember many places clearly.

"Oh?" The monkey got excited instantly, "There's this thing." As he said that, he wanted to grab the book in my hand.

I hurriedly dodged his hand and put the book in my arms.

This monkey has a perverse personality and doesn't know the seriousness. If he knows about the Buddha's past, he may cause big trouble.

If the Buddha became angry and killed Huaguo Mountain, I really couldn't deal with that bald donkey.

I held down the monkey and began to explain to him: "The curse is like a safe, you need a password to open it, and the password is usually related to the owner's life."

"Safe? Password?" The monkey was confused.

I whispered a name and asked him, "Maybe take it down?"

The monkey touched the tight band on his head, pulled it for a long time, and said, "Master, are you fooling me?"

"Hmm..." According to this bald donkey's character, it should be right.

etc--

The name in Sanskrit should be...

The moment the last syllable was exited, the tight hoop instantly shattered into dozens of pieces, fell to the ground, and then turned into dust and went away with the wind.

The monkey laughed wildly three times, carried the golden cudgel straight up to the clouds, and flew all over the sky.

...as if possessed by a fly.

I smiled and shook my head, and walked towards the Shuilian Cave, when suddenly I heard a person shouting something loudly.

I couldn't help but stop and make a careful distinction, as if I was calling that monkey.

I was about to look down the mountain, when I bumped into a woman rushing towards me like a gust of wind, oh, isn't that the peach blossom of the daughter country.

It seems that Her Majesty has not been able to get what she wanted after all.

I stared at the woman who tried to snatch the monkey from me again and again with an unfriendly expression.

Unexpectedly, she didn't even look at me, walked around by herself, went straight to the top of the mountain, stood on the rock and shouted to the sky: "Sun Wukong! Come down for me!"

The monkey swayed for a while before it wobbled down to the ground.

The excitement on the monkey's face hadn't subsided, and when he saw the peach blossom, he smiled: "Hey, little peach blossom, why did you come so early."

Seeing him coming down, Taohua sneered and threw an invitation card in her hand on the monkey's face: "Sun Wukong, what do you mean?"

The monkey sideways dodged the invitation, and said with a smile, "Taohua, how do you say that?"

This monkey has never had a good temper, and he didn't feel annoyed at being treated like this today, on the contrary he smiled like a flower...

I felt a little uncomfortable watching it, wanted to leave but was unwilling, so I just leaned on a tree stump and waited for the follow-up.

Who knows that Taohua sneered three times, and suddenly pointed at me: "You don't want to marry me, but you want to marry this bald donkey, don't you?"

"..." I really wanted to strangle this woman to death.

Monkey giggled and said, "How can you say that, Taohua?"

The woman said angrily: "You said before that you can't marry me if you want to learn from the scriptures, but now!" Tao Hua seemed eager to pounce on the monkey and bite him: "But you want to marry a bald donkey!"

"..." What's wrong with the bald donkey, do you look down on the bald donkey or something?I glared at the woman angrily.

The monkey said: "Taohua, it's not right for you to say that, my master has returned to vulgarity."

Tiaohua continued to be angry: "You two are still men!"

I was silent.

Is it wrong for you to say that, yes I am a man but he is just a monkey...

Wukong has a rare good temper today: "So what do you want to say about Taohua?"

Tao Hua suddenly fell silent after hearing his question.

After a while, she suddenly raised her head and stared at the monkey: "Monkey King, let me ask you, how can I compare to this bald donkey!"

"..." I'm obviously not bald now, okay?

I stretched my waist and suddenly felt that it was boring to be so entangled: "You just left Her Majesty the Queen and came to Huaguo Mountain?"

"I—" Taohua suddenly turned her head and glared at me.

"The abandoned monarch, your people, came to Huaguo Mountain to find a monkey?" I rubbed my chin, thinking that this was simply unimaginable.

I just raised a monkey, why everyone misses it, Guanyin wants to borrow it, this one wants to snatch it, tsk tsk, so many people like monkeys these days, it's hard to understand.

"Don't worry about it!" Tao Hua's tone was blunt.

Of course I don't care about you.

I sneered in my heart, pulled the monkey and left.

Taohua rushed over and pushed me away: "This is about me and Monkey King, what does it have to do with you!"

"Peach Blossom, it's your fault," Monkey pulled me behind with a smile, "How can you make such trouble."

"You..." Taohua looked at the monkey with teary eyes, as if on the verge of crying.

I suddenly couldn't bear it, but after thinking about it, I couldn't bear it, but why was she ever polite to me?

Thinking of this, I simply turned my heart and pointed down the mountain: "When are you leaving?"

"I won't leave!" Taohua said angrily.

I looked at her coolly: "You go by yourself or I want to see you off."

Taohua looked at the monkey suddenly: "You let this bald man drive me away like this?"

well.

It seems I know.

I sneered and pursed my lips.

There was an echo from far away in the east, it was Qibao.

Qibao is one of the pets I kept a long time ago. This guy grows too big and eats too much. I find it troublesome, so this guy is basically released as an adult.

Qibao hovered in the air for a while, then swooped down with a scream.

A shrill scream suddenly sounded.

Qibao pierced Taohua's shoulder with one claw, and lifted her up high into the sky.

I watched all this calmly, turned my head and walked away.

"Master." The monkey followed behind me.

"Why?" I sneered, "You are reluctant."

The monkey giggled and said, "Master, aren't you jealous?"

I looked at him coldly.

The monkey suddenly said seriously: "Master, Peach Blossom—"

"Of course she didn't do anything damn." As I said this, I still couldn't help gnashing my teeth, thinking about it, still feeling uneasy.

I grabbed the monkey by the collar and asked forcefully, "If you hadn't seduced her, how could a daughter of hers pester you so hard?"

"Master, what are you talking about?" the monkey looked left and right, "I am a monkey and she is a flower, the species are different, what about seduction?"

I crossed my arms and looked at him coolly.

The monkey suddenly smiled: "Master, you won't kill her."

I said proudly: "I really don't need to kill her, but I won't stop Qibao from being a cannibal."

The monkey didn't refute, just looked at me like that.

Of course I know what he wants is just a promise from me, a promise not to kill that woman.

It's just that the more he behaves like this, the angrier I get.

Why.

This woman offended me several times and was still protected by this monkey, why.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and I wished I could pluck all the hair on this monkey.

"master?"

"master?"

"master!"

The monkey held my arm and shook it back and forth, as if to dislocate my arm.

"Master," he said pitifully, "Peach Blossom offends you, but you blame me. What's the reason?"

I let him ask speechless, just sat under the tree sullenly and didn't speak.

The monkey sat down next to me: "Master, you don't believe me."

"I didn't..." I subconsciously wanted to deny it.

"When did I ever have feelings for Taohua?" The monkey looked aggrieved, "You suddenly became so angry."

I felt a little guilty when I heard it, but I argued in my mouth: "When did I get angry..."

The monkey stuffed its head into my arms and lay sprawled on its back: "It's all like this and it's not angry."

I leaned against the tree trunk quietly and didn't speak.

The monkey rubbed the back of my hand: "Where did you throw the peach blossom?" He was sure that I didn't kill that woman.

I smiled and kissed his forehead, and said, "Guess."

"Where else can I lose, it must be the daughter country." The monkey took my hand and hugged it into his arms.

I affirmed the monkey's conjecture calmly: "Yes."

"Poor Peach Blossom," said the monkey, "her shoulder must have been hurt. She must have never imagined that you, Master, are such a hot-tempered jealous—hiss! Master, let go! Let go! Pain! Pain!"

I let go and smoothed his hair, proudly said: "What else do you want to say?"

The monkey smiled weakly: "Master, it's fine if you're not bald."

"..." What kind of words are these.
