Mobile Meal Ticket as a Great Sage [Journey to the West]

Tao Zhen waited for a long time but did not see the Great Sage coming back, but she waited so hungry that she was sleepy.She turned back into her original form, ready to fall asleep and wait for the Great Sage to come back.

Before closing her eyes, she looked at her peach branches for a while.A lot of fruits were still hanging well, and although she tossed a lot of leaves, they were not bald anyway.

Tao Zhen felt relieved, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

After falling asleep, she had a dream.

A tall pillar was erected on the Demon Slaying Platform, which was so thick that five people could hardly hug it, and it was now wrapped with layers of chains.Thunder and lightning flashed among the layers of clouds, and in an instant, the dark clouds sank to the top.

The monkey tied to the Demon Subduing Column is dressed like a man, with golden chain mail, phoenix wings and purple gold crown, and lotus root silk walking on cloud shoes. Even if it is bound by iron chains, it is unruly.

The monkey sneered coldly: "Knife, ax, gun, sword, thunder and fire, Jade Emperor, what other methods do you have to deal with my grandson?!"

"If the Jade Emperor is trustworthy, then it's better to hand it over to the old Taoist. Put the monkey in the Bagua furnace and burn it with civil and military fire. In the end, it will only be reduced to ashes."

"In that case, I will hand it over to the Supreme Lord."

Seventy-seven days later, when the furnace was opened to take pills, there was a loud noise in the palace.

The red-eyed and golden-eyed monkey stood on the top of the alchemy furnace, waving a golden cudgel with a hostile look like a rakshasa from hell.

"Your gods and Buddhas are nothing but tricks."

The Dome of Heaven is in chaos.I don't know how long it took before the Tathagata suddenly appeared, and as soon as he saw the monkey in front of him, he smiled and said, "I'll make a bet with you, will you come here, you monkey?"

With a cold snort, he responded, "What are you betting on?"

Tathagata explained it in detail.

"Since that's the case, then my grandson will bet with you."

However, somersaulting clouds have never turned out the Tathagata's palm even for eighteen thousand miles.

How is this possible? !The monkey was so angry that he soared into the clouds again: "Come again!"

"I would like to bet." Tathagata stretched out his hand with a smile, and pushed the unruly and wild monkey out of the West Heaven Gate with his palms. His five fingers turned into a mountain, and he was about to crush the monkey under the mountain——

Suddenly there was a shout of anger and hatred from the bottom of the mountain: "Tathagata—"

……

Tao Zhen suddenly woke up from the dream.

She herself turned into a human form at some point, and she was lying on the ground at this moment, her chest still rising and falling violently.

...It turned out to be just a dream.

She sat up in a daze, and a gust of wind blew, which made her whole body chill.

What about the Great Sage?Where did the great saint go?Taozhen regained her composure and got up uneasy, and when she stood up straight, she burrowed into the peach forest and looked for it like a headless chicken.

Not in the peach grove.

Taozhen went to look outside the Taolin again.A bright moon above her head was enough for her to see everything around her clearly.She was going to another nearby mountain, but now she suddenly heard the sound of water.

Tao Zhen walked a few steps towards the river, and when she saw the scene in front of her clearly, she froze in place.

The sky full of stars falls on this river, flooding and sparkling under the night sky.

Without the golden chain mail, the purple gold crown with phoenix wings, and the cloud shoes of lotus root silk in her dream, the solitary monkey wears a simple white cloth short straight skirt and a tiger skin around it, with only a tight hoop on top of its messy head.

Standing motionless by the river, he didn't know what he was thinking, and his back under the moonlight looked a little lonely.

Tao Zhen was staring blankly at first, but now the tip of her nose suddenly felt sore.

She wants to cry.

Countless gods and Buddhas suppressed him and bound him with a magic spell, so he was trapped on the road leading to the Western Paradise, and finally defeated the Buddha in a battle.

Becoming a Buddha means more constraints.

Does the Great Sage really want to become a Buddha?

In the past, the Great Sage was just a character in the story to her, and no matter how much speculation and embarrassment was, it was like seeing flowers in a fog—she knew it was false.

But now, she finally realized that the omnipotent Great Sage in the story, who seemed to go up to heaven and earth, really existed beside her.

Tao Zhen couldn't help breaking the silence that made her worry.

"Great Saint."

Monkey King had heard the movement behind him, but he didn't turn his head.Hearing the peach tree spirit's voice at this moment, he moved, staring at the calm water in front of him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"On your way to learn scriptures..." Tao Zhen summoned up her courage and said, "Can you take me with you?"

The figure in front of her suddenly turned around, but because her back was facing the moonlight, Tao Zhen couldn't see his face clearly.

She couldn't help feeling uneasy.

"Why do you want to follow to learn the scriptures?"

"I...I can't stay in Taolin forever, but I don't know where else I can go."

In fact, she just thought, how great it would be if she could witness with her own eyes that their master and apprentice finally obtained the scriptures?The last time she met Tang Seng and the Great Sage, she had such an idea, but she dared not say it.

But this time, I felt like I couldn't say no.

After all, the Great Sage is going to return to Tang Seng to continue his journey of learning the scriptures. This time, he thought of her, the peach tree spirit, and came here once on a whim, but what about in the future?It took 14 years to learn the scriptures. At that time, when the great sage became a Buddha, he must have forgotten such a small person as her.

She wanted to actually witness it all.

So Tao Zhen hurriedly added: "Great Sage, I don't need to eat or drink, I won't hold you back, maybe I can—"

He was interrupted before finishing a sentence.

"My old grandson doesn't want to go to the West Paradise anyway, but you, the peach tree spirit, are rushing forward!" Sun Wukong took a few steps closer, his eyes gradually filled with anger, "What do you mean you don't know where to go? Can there be no place for you?!"

But the world is so big, the Monkey King with countless abilities could not even escape the palm of the Buddha after all.

Tao Zhen didn't dare to say these words, but felt sad in her heart.She said: "I'm just a peach tree spirit, and I can't get any benefits. Naturally, I don't want to go to the West Paradise. It's just because I admire you, the Great Sage, so I want to learn a lot along the way."

In front of him, Monkey King was silent for a while, and he turned his face away after a while, his tone was still very stiff, "This journey is difficult and dangerous beyond your imagination, if you say something on a whim, you will definitely not be able to bear this kind of hardship in the future and clamor to leave."

"It's not on a whim." Tao Zhen hurriedly explained, "I'm serious, Great Sage."

"It's useless for you to tell my grandson." Monkey King said with a straight face.

Tao Zhen thought that he was persuaded by her, so she was overjoyed immediately, "I can ask the elder again——"

Before the last word was finished, Sun Wukong snorted softly and said, "My old grandson won't go to learn scriptures anymore, if you want to go, just worry about it yourself!"

... Also, how did she forget this?The Great Sage is still angry.

Tao Zhen remembered that this time in the story, it was Zhu Bajie who went to Huaguo Mountain to invite the Great Sage back. She didn't think she had the ability to persuade people to change their minds, so in the end it still depends on Bajie?

But now that the Great Sage is with her, she has never returned to Huaguo Mountain!

Tao Zhen thought about it quickly, and finally said: "If you don't go back, the Great Sage, then I don't think it's very interesting to learn the scriptures along the way."

Sun Wukong snorted, thinking that the Peach Tree Spirit was just a whim and didn't have much determination.Just thinking about it, she heard her say, "Then where are you going, Great Sage?"

"Naturally, go back to Huaguo Mountain."

Tao Zhen laughed: "Can you take me with you?"
