The Monkey King

Chapter 720: original appearance

  Lion camel country.

   is still the original courtyard and the original attic. Only this time, there were many more guards outside. Rows of long spears stood upright, and in the dark place, countless arrays were laid. Countless fully armed demon generals are ambushing everywhere.

   stood on tiptoe and saw everything outside the door through the window lattice, even a young Chen Xiang could already feel the strong killing aura in it, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

   "Master, is Master Wukong going to lock us up? Will he…"

   "No." Qing Xin patted Chen Xiang's head lightly, and said hesitantly, "Master, his old man... Since he has already asked, he will never put us in danger. Don't worry."

  Chenxiang nodded silently, feeling a little more at ease. However, Qing Xin's heart was still uneasy.

   In that battle more than 600 years ago, didn’t Subhuti lose all nine of his disciples?

   This time, will he really put his life and death first? Or... is he just a bargaining chip?

  Thinking, Qing Xin suddenly smiled helplessly.

   In her past life and this life, she hardly ever really grasped her own destiny, and she was always just a floating leaf in the frenzy.

  …

"What Buddhists do, naturally, they have their own intentions. You just need to remember that in their abacus, they will never consider whether you can survive or not. In the eyes of the Buddha, there is only the Dharma." Slowly getting up, Subhuti slowly Pacing the ground: "But!"

   "But?" The six-eared macaque widened its eyes.

   Looking at the six-eared macaque, Subhuti sighed softly: "However, as long as the other you still exists one day, and as long as Xuanzang's westward journey has not declared failure, Buddhism must be on your side."

   "Huh?" The six-eared macaque blinked incredulously.

"After the battle more than 600 years ago, Laojun's Tiandao stone collapsed, and Tiandao no longer exists. Heavenly Court has gone from its peak to decline, while the Monster Race has been torn apart. The most powerful force in the world. Nothing is more than Buddhism. If the Tathagata has the will to unify the three realms, there may be no Taoism in these three realms.”

   The six-eared macaque listened quietly, while Subhuti walked back and forth like a chattering old man. kept talking.

"Buddha, the four great things are all empty, only the Buddha Dharma remains. Therefore, if the Tathagata can cultivate the way of heaven without self, even if you reach the peak of the way of the pilgrim again. Restoring the infinite way of heaven is also helpless to him. Under the same level of cultivation, the disciples of Buddhism are even more Taoism is much stronger. But Buddha also has weaknesses."

"The four are empty, which means that ordinary weaknesses no longer exist in them. Fear, greed, and even pure evil cannot exist in them. They have no feelings, and it is difficult to make mistakes because they have become Innocent. The embodiment of reason. So their weakness is only in the Dharma itself."

   "Only by knowing the Dharma can you truly defeat them."

   At this point, the six-eared macaque's brows were already frowning. He stared blankly at Subhuti.

Seeing this, Subhuti's words changed and he sighed softly: "Buddhism is not your biggest threat at this moment, but for the teacher, you have to talk about Buddhism first. Why? Because they are your greatest help and your eternal threat. This. You must be clear first. Your battle with the other you, no matter who wins or loses, no matter who becomes the only Monkey King in the end, Buddhism will not allow you to live in this world."

   heard the words. The six-eared macaque shrank its neck slightly, thoughtfully.

The words    were also said by the monkeys during the first battle of the monkeys. At that time, he also understood it, but it was far from what he said from Subhuti's mouth at this moment.

Stroking his long beard, Subhuti continued, "The one who can defeat the Buddha. Only those who are familiar with the Buddha's Dharma. There was one Laojun who was at his peak in those days, and another is Master Xuanzang today. It no longer exists, so the only person left in the world who can defeat the Buddha and let you really get rid of the predicament is Master Xuanzang. In any case, you must ensure the safety of Master Xuanzang. Only in this way can you achieve the ultimate victory. possible."

   After hesitating for a while, the six-eared macaque bowed its head deeply and said, "This disciple is to follow the instructions of the master."

  Subhuti nodded silently.

   raised his head, and the six-eared macaque looked at Subhuti again and said, "However, Master, what this disciple is facing now is not this threat from Buddhism. It's another self, and... Heavenly Tribulation. Please also ask Master to point out the maze!"

   Seeing the six-eared macaque who sincerely asked for advice at this moment and was extremely obedient, Subhuti couldn't help but burst out laughing.

   On the platform, Lao Jun, who was holding a chess piece, also suddenly laughed.

   "Master..." The six-eared macaque said with a puzzled face, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, it's just a little thing, don't mention it." Subhuti shook his head slowly, and continued: "You have made clear what the teacher said before, then the next thing will be easy to handle. The weakness of Buddhism is that Dharma. Master Xuanzang is their dead end. The only reason they let you out is to deal with another you. To be more precise, it is to create disaster for Master Xuanzang who is traveling west. So…”

"so?"

"That's why." Subhuti looked at the six-eared macaque and said in a low voice, "It's not a good thing if you are strong. If you are strong, you won't get any help. On the contrary, if you are weak, you will. Think about how you got your current weapon."

   Hearing this, the six-eared macaque suddenly realized.

"The Way of the Walker is good at killing, but in the whole world, how many Ways of Walker actually reach the top?" Step by step, he walked to the front of the futon, and Subhuti bowed and sat down, and said leisurely, "If this world is like a chessboard, the chess player , what more than three or five? No matter how strong you are, you can’t help but suffer from multiple losses. And no matter how weak you are, as long as you are supported by multiple parties, you can still reach the top. Only by assessing the situation and strategizing strategies can you take advantage of the opportunities and be invincible. If there is a brute force, in the end, it is just a marriage for others."

   "Disciple understands! Master Xie's guidance on the maze, great kindness and great virtue, nothing to repay!"

   "dong dong dong", leaning down, the six-eared macaque is connected with three heads.

   "Understood, then let's go. If you encounter anything, you can go back to Xieyue Sanxingdong to find you as a teacher."

   "Master Xie!" He raised his head, the six-eared macaque's eyeballs twitched, but stopped.

   "What? Is there anything else?"

   "Hehe." The six-eared macaque grinned, scratched its ears and scratched its cheeks, and said a little embarrassedly, "Master, there is something else I want to ask."

  Subhuti raised his eyes slightly and said, "Speak."

   "The disciple wants to know...I want to know Qingxin and Yang Chan, is there any way to make them two..."

   At this point, Subhuti burst out laughing.

  The six-eared macaque didn't say any more, but just stared at Subhuti with wide eyes, expecting that Subhuti could teach him something.

   "The two of them only recognize the other you, why?"

"This…"

   "What are you worse than the other you?"

"memory!"

   "Where does memory come from?"

"This…"

Seeing the six-eared macaque looking dizzy, Subhuti supported his knees and said meaningfully, "Remembering, naturally, we can get along. Now both of them are in your hands, as long as you see the situation clearly and know what to do. Do, what not to do... without old memories, new ones can be created."

  …

   After a while, the six-eared macaque said goodbye to Subhuti and left the Xieyue Sanxing Cave. Compared with the excitement when he came, his face was full of smugness at this time.

   Laojun, who was still sitting in front of the chessboard, raised his head slightly and glanced at Subhuti, who had arrived late, and smiled faintly.

Subhuti returned to his seat step by step, grabbed a chess piece, and sighed softly: "This heavenly way is really mysterious and mysterious. Although the heavenly way stone is broken and the trajectory of the three realms has been disrupted, the word 'destiny' is still alive. exist."

   "What do you want to say?"

Grabbing the chess piece, Subhuti opened his sleeves, and while carefully examining the situation on the chessboard, he said softly, "I just want to say, if it wasn't for a spirit from outside the sky, this might be my ten apprentices. The way it is..." (~^~)
