Chapter 752: Lotus Lantern + Journey to the West - Tang Monk's Flesh 12
Sun Wukong was still the righteous Sun Wukong. After hearing Ruyi's request, he did not care about her "using" him and agreed readily on the spot.
Ruyi took all the remaining ginseng fruits on the ginseng fruit tree and went back to seclusion happily, leaving behind Sun Wukong and his three disciples, who had picked the ginseng fruits and pushed down the ginseng fruit tree to "destroy all traces", and fled the Wuzhuang Temple in a hurry overnight, leaving behind a mess.
When the Great Immortal Zhenyuan came back from visiting his friends in Miluo Palace, he was furious when he saw the situation in Wuzhuang Temple. He then learned about the incident from the two Taoist children Qingfeng and Mingyue. He was so angry that he used magic to capture Tang Seng and his three disciples on the spot.
If Sun Wukong had not finally promised to find someone to help heal the ginseng fruit tree, the four masters and apprentices would have really been imprisoned to death by the immortal Zhenyuan.
Guanyin was the great enemy that Sun Wukong asked for help. He used up a whole bottle of nectar in the jade bottle, which made Guanyin so distressed that she throbbed with murderous intent towards Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong sensed Guanyin's murderous intent towards him, and a gleam of light flashed in his flaming eyes. On the surface, he still smiled awkwardly and did not forget to say some nice words to thank Guanyin, but Sun Wukong felt more and more bored in his heart.
"It seems that I am being looked down upon by others." These people probably thought that they had been locked up under the Five Finger Mountain for five hundred years and their cultivation had declined instead of improved. As long as they didn't obey, they could get rid of them at any time. "Humph, I want to see how these Western bald donkeys are going to get rid of me!"
Sun Wukong had the determination to become stronger, and he focused on practicing on the journey to obtain the scriptures. When he arrived at Baiguling, he met the White Bone Lady who had transformed into a village girl to chat up Tang Sanzang. Her attitude became much more perfunctory. Even though her Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils had recognized the White Bone Lady's true form, she would ignore him as long as Tang Sanzang had not been caught and had not called for help.
The most active and serious eldest disciple, Sun Wukong, began to slack off. Needless to say, the second disciple, Zhu Bajie, who was lazy and didn't want to work, only cared about whether the village girl was pretty when he saw her. He didn't have any guard at all. The silent third disciple sat there in even more silence without any reaction.
Tang Sanzang was praised by the village girl transformed by Mrs. White Bone, and he immediately stood up to go with her, "Wukong, Bajie, it is hard to refuse the kindness of this female donor, why don't we stay at her home for a night?"
"Master, this is a monster, not some female donor!" Seeing that the fool Tang Sanzang was really going to follow the monster, Sun Wukong lost his patience and directly took out his golden cudgel and hit the village girl. The White Bone Lady pretended to be dead and fell to the ground and then escaped. Not long after, she changed into the image of an old lady and came back.
The plot of "Three Fights with the White Bone Demon" took a turn and returned to the starting point, but this time when Tang Sanzang determined that Sun Wukong had killed innocent people and decided to drive him away, Sun Wukong, who had received the letter of demotion, no longer shed tears and explained and pleaded many times.
"Wukong, Master has said many times that monks should be compassionate and not kill innocent people, but you have committed murders time and again and have refused to repent. Now Master is sure that you are wild and unruly, and it is definitely not something that I can discipline. Today, our relationship as master and disciple has ended. I hope you will take care of yourself from now on."
"Go away!" Tang Sanzang's words were implying that Sun Wukong was disobedient and disobedient. Even Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing who were watching knew that the village girl, old woman and old man who were beaten to death were just excuses. After all, when ordinary people died, their bodies would disappear all of a sudden. These were just excuses to control Sun Wukong.
Unfortunately, things did not go according to Tang Sanzang's plan. Instead of panicking, Sun Wukong refused to admit his mistake.
"Master, are you sure you want to sever the master-disciple relationship with me, Old Sun?"
Sun Wukong suppressed his hands that were shaking uncontrollably from anticipation and confirmed with Tang Sanzang again.
"Yes!"
"Okay, in that case, Master, please announce to the heaven and earth that you will sever the master-disciple relationship with me today!" A letter of demotion alone is not enough. Tang Sanzang must personally announce to the heaven and earth that he does not want me, his eldest disciple. Only in this way can the cause and effect be settled.
Sun Wukong's tough attitude made Tang Sanzang's eyebrows jump. He couldn't help but feel nervous and reluctant to agree to Sun Wukong's request. But when he looked at Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing beside him, they had strange smiles on their faces, looking at him with expectation and excitement. Tang Sanzang immediately felt proud and said, "Okay!"
"I am Tang Sanzang, the great monk of the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty. Today I announce to heaven and earth that I will sever the master-disciple relationship with my eldest disciple Sun Wukong. From now on, there will be no more..."
As Tang Sanzang's words of announcement to heaven and earth came out, Guanyin in the Purple Bamboo Forest suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. Shunfenger in the Heavenly Palace and the Jade Emperor, the agent of heaven, also suddenly heard the changes of cause and effect in the dark.
"What is this...?" The Jade Emperor listened carefully, and suddenly heard the names of Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong. He widened his eyes in surprise, and looked at the three thunders that sounded in the sky after Tang Sanzang finished speaking. He murmured, "Three thunders, the heaven and earth recognize that Tang Sanzang actually took the initiative to understand the cause and effect of the stone monkey and Western Buddhism. This..."
“Damn it!” Guanyin also heard the three thunders, and immediately understood the cause and effect after counting with her fingers, “Tang Sanzang…” The spiritual stone monkey that they had finally managed to get was released by Tang Sanzang? ! !
You have to know that Sun Wukong was born from the stones left over from the repair of the sky by Saint Nuwa, and he himself has the great merit of repairing the sky and saving the world. Isn't it that Western Buddhism has spent so much effort just to "return" the great merit of Sun Wukong to Buddhism?
For this reason, he not only tolerated Sun Wukong for such a long time, but also helped him clean up a lot of messes. After finally obtaining the scriptures here, he was let go by "his own people"?
"Ah!" Just thinking about it, Guanyin was about to go crazy, and she couldn't even take care of him washing up. She was about to go over and stop Sun Wukong. As long as Sun Wukong didn't agree to sever the master-disciple relationship or to become his disciple again, this matter could still be remedied...
It's a pity that Guanyin arrived too late. As soon as Tang Sanzang finished his announcement to heaven and earth, she flew away happily, leaving behind Tang Sanzang, who was trying hard not to show any regret, and Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, who were also thoughtful and eager to make a move.
Ruyi was still in seclusion in the Flower-Fruit Mountain to refine the great amount of merit she had absorbed from Tang Sanzang, when she saw Sun Wukong suddenly come back with a smile on his face. The whole monkey looked as high-spirited as if he had let go of some shackles.
"Sister, I am free!"
"You are free?!" What does that mean? Ruyi was confused. Seeing this, Sun Wukong immediately told Ruyi about it. When he got excited, he even danced with joy. "If I hadn't been smart, I would have been put on the tight hoop. If I had been put on the tight hoop, even if the monk was willing to let me go this time, I would not have been able to leave."
