[Journey to the West] The male protagonist is under a lot of pressure

He never thought that he could see such a scene.

Ever since he was pressed under his five fingers with his backhand and pasted with that paper post, all he can see is darkness, and the only thing exposed outside is a right hand that can barely shake.However, there is nothing that can be done with only this one hand left outside. In addition to the influence of the seven-seven-forty-nine-day samadhi real fire in the eight trigrams furnace of Taishang Laojun, it is impossible to break free.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, whose spirit is higher than the sky, felt his own powerlessness at this moment. He cursed the Tathagata in his heart, and did not close his eyes for a full 24 hours.

How did he get to where he is now?

Monkey King is unwilling to admit his mistakes, but there is no doubt that the gap in strength between him and Tathagata is hard to ignore.

If one day——

he thought bitterly.

If one day he comes out from this mountain, the first thing he will do is to hit the heaven again and make him turn upside down again.

"...Don't be discouraged."

He heard that voice ringing in his ears again, which made Sun Wukong even more irritable.The female voice that just came from the mountain on him not long ago was really inexplicable. He actually wanted the other party to shut up and give him some quiet time to let him stay for a while, but for some reason, he didn't do that, and he was still in the same place. At the beginning, answer the other party's questions.

Sun Wukong had some doubts about her identity—she might have been sent by Tathagata to watch him, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that something was wrong. Tathagata turned his right hand into the Five Elements Mountain and pressed him under the mountain. The original body was Tathagata's right hand, he should not have divine consciousness, but now that guy calls himself Five Elements Mountain...

He had a little interest in it.

In the next few days, he no longer rejected communicating with each other, but despite this, the two of them were always silent most of the time.Sun Wukong could also sense that the other party was trying to use his power. After all, after posting that post, the Five Elements Mountain took root. He and the other party were so closely attached, it was strange that he couldn't feel it.

Tathagata asked him to eat iron pills and drink copper juice, Sun Wukong himself didn't feel much about it, he just missed the fresh fruits grown on Huaguo Mountain and the flat peaches he had eaten secretly.But the one who claimed to be from the Five Elements Mountain really asked a stupid question at first, and it didn't matter whether he had a seizure or not.

He felt that the other party must have made him stupid too, so he would be idle to ask her such questions.

After going back and forth, he also found out a lot about the character of the other party.Her words and demeanor have no Tathagata-like style at all, and it's only been two days, so it must be impossible for her to have spiritual consciousness suddenly after she transformed into a mountain; on the other hand, Sun Wukong feels that this is just like an age For ordinary human beings who are not big, he had a guess from this—it might not be the soul of a lonely wild ghost attached to the Five Elements Mountain, but ordinary ghosts really can't feel a little bit of Tathagata's magic power And approach without authorization?

If nothing else, you will definitely be stopped by the land or the five directions.

There is another omission in this guess.

Judging from the content and tone of the other party's words, she never mentioned her own death at all. On the contrary, what she mentioned by chance were things that Monkey King had never heard of, and he could not infer the other party's origin from them .The more complicated and confusing it was, the more his curiosity was aroused, and he suddenly felt that it would be quite interesting to chat with her.

After that, he even occasionally taught each other how to practice.Judging from her clumsiness, she couldn't possibly be a character from Tathagata's side. Of course, having said that, he could also feel that the other party's aptitude was great—although it was not as good as him—this also proved it from another aspect. This is indeed the mountain transformed by the right hand of the Tathagata, not replaced by anything else.

No, maybe it was indeed a replacement.

It's just not a "replacement" in the usual sense...

Sun Wukong felt that he had already guessed the identity of the other party, but in fact he didn't, and the time passed quickly. He thought that he would live like a year under the Five Elements Mountain, but he didn't expect it to be winter in the blink of an eye.

The Five Elements Mountain was not as tightly integrated as he had imagined, and nearly a year was enough for him to earn it back, at least to expose his head to the outside—of course, that's all.At this time, it is already the rustling autumn, and all you can see is a piece of golden yellow, and the change from autumn to winter makes this golden yellow gradually dyed white.The climate in this place is much harsher than Huaguo Mountain, but the stone monkey that jumped out of the rock didn't think it was a big deal.

...It's a pity that he doesn't always feel so good, and he also feels a bit unbearable in the most severe cold.He began to swear and curse the old man Tathagata again in his heart, thinking that he must have chosen such an environment on purpose.

Unexpectedly, the mountain on his body was more nervous than himself, and no matter how much he concealed the anxiety in his tone, he couldn't hide it from Monkey King's ears.

That doesn't seem too bad.

Up to this moment, he hadn't noticed any change in his thinking compared to the beginning.

So when exactly did you feel it?

Sun Wukong turned his head and glanced back at the guy who had a good chat with Zhu Bajie, and snorted.

In the spring of the tenth year after he was crushed on the Marble Mountains, one morning, he was woken up by a peach falling from the top of his head.

He pretended that he hadn't noticed the other party's small movements, and he pretended that he hadn't noticed the other party's frantic efforts to plant a tree.When he smelled the aroma of peach fruit, he couldn't pretend anymore.But this time, he pretended not to care and asked, "What are you messing with?"

"Peach, Great Sage."

She replied happily, and then began to narrate how she found a half-bitten peach on the back mountainside, how she rolled it here with all her nose, and how she tossed for a long time Only then gradually found the essentials of cultivation.Sun Wukong listened, and answered twice from time to time, wondering why he was so patient, listening to her rambling here for a long time.

In the winter of the same year, whenever the land and the others were away, there would always be an ugly stone slab on top of his head. Monkey King, who was once known as the "Monkey King", sneered at it, but he also knew how much effort the other party had spent Something that was barely made out.He accepted the other party's kindness, but on the other side, there was something subtle in his heart.

For no reason, why is it necessary to do such a thing for him?

He still remembers that she kept calling him "Great Sage" and "Great Sage" from the very beginning, which made him a lot of suspicious.Although he has not interacted with the human world for many years, when he first came here, he also met some villagers from nearby villages who came to investigate the situation because they suddenly descended from this mountain.

Also, the sound is quite nice.

Things have changed since Guanyin passed by.

Guanyin Bodhisattva is going to the Eastern Tang Dynasty to find a sutra learner. Along the way, he is selecting his future apprentices for this person to help him obtain the sutras.Although in essence, he is still the Monkey King who is not afraid of anything, but the time of more than five hundred years is enough for him to settle his mind and carefully reflect on what he did wrong back then. .

He thought he had done his introspection well, and stopped them when Guanyin passed by and recited poems.

He could hear the loss in her voice after Avalokitesvara and her disciples left, which Sun Wukong deliberately ignored.

—does he care?

No, of course not.

He shouldn't have cared.

Thinking this way, he accidentally opened his mouth one day.

"Wu Xing, are you willing to leave this place with my grandson?"

"What are you talking about, Great Sage?" The other party's voice was quite surprised, "How can I leave here, even if I want to, I can't help it."

"Didn't you say the idiotic words like 'want to become a spirit'?"

"...You still remember."

She said awkwardly: "But if you think about it carefully, you will know how it is possible, and at my level, I won't be able to do it in another 1000 years."

Both of them knew what this meant. Avalokitesvara had already traveled eastward, and it was only a few years after the arrival of the Buddhist scriptures, and the time left was extremely limited.

"I just want to hear a word from you." His impatient personality gained the upper hand again, "If such a day really comes, are you willing or not?"

After a moment of silence, he heard her let out a long sigh.

"...how could you not want to."

Although she answered in this way, Sun Wukong also knew that the other party might not take this sentence to heart, but if this day really came true, it would be more than that simple.

Of course, he never expressed this idea, and he didn't even intend to reveal it to the other party at all, but he just strengthened the intensity of guiding her without authorization.

Unfortunately, it is still too late.

In the end, he still chose the path of abandoning the other party and following the Buddhist scriptures.

The moment he broke through the mountain, even though he had lightened his strength as much as possible, he seemed to feel a little bit of the other party's pain. Companionship for 500 years, now in exchange for such an ending, Sun Wukong has some regrets in his heart, but this still cannot match his desire for the goal he has been pursuing from beginning to end.The agreement was originally made by him on his own, and it stands to reason that there would be no pity to break it.

He never thought that he could see such a scene.

When he walked across the border between the two countries with his master, he was no longer under heavy pressure. For the first time in 500 years, Sun Wukong really looked at the landscape he was in, and was amazed at the red-dyed maple leaves on the mountain beside him.Then, he thought of those words she had just said before the master came.

So, for the first time in his long life, he felt a heavy burden on his heart.

He never thought that he would see the other party really appear in front of him.

"Great Saint."

For the first time, her voice really sounded in front of him.
