Chapter 262: Journey to the West and Measure the Tribulation
Time flies, hundreds of years pass by in the blink of an eye.
Because the general who rolled up the curtain in heaven broke the glass lamp when he touched it, the furious Jade Emperor knocked him down to earth for a long time.
On this day, Tathagata Buddha demoted Jin Chanzi to the mortal world as a routine matter for the tenth life.
Sun Wukong has been trapped under the Wuzhi Mountain and cannot remember the years. He only feels that spring has passed and autumn has come and he has no sense of time.
Marshal Tianpeng, who has been famous for thousands of years, got drunk and went to the Moon Palace to molest Chang'e during a banquet. The goddess Chang'e was so angry that she was thrown into the mortal world and thrown into the fetus of a pig.
Marshal Tianpeng, who joined the pig fetus, did not give up, and still worked hard to practice Taoism and return to his original self. After achieving success in cultivation, his pig-headed body remained unchanged.
Marshal Tianpeng, who was thinking hard, used the art of disguise and worked diligently in a village called Gaolaozhuang.
Jin Chanzi, who was demoted to the mortal world, became an eminent monk this time and was deeply loved by the Emperor of Tang under the influence of various Buddhist cultures.
Liu Qiao looked at these familiar scenes and couldn't help but sigh, the correction power of time is so terrifying. It changes everyone silently and does not allow anyone to change.
Jin Peng had already been placed in the Shituoling disaster early, but because Liu Qiao strictly prohibited the practice of cannibalism, there was no big trouble.
Everything went on smoothly and orderly. After Liu Qiao saw Sun Wukong, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Sun Wukong, I wonder what your expression will be like when we two brothers meet, knowing that I am the Prime Minister of Heaven?"
Sun Wukong spent more than 400 years in the coming and going of summer and winter, enjoying the miserable life of being trapped under Wuzhi Mountain. When he was hungry, he would bring in distant plants and fruits to satisfy his hunger.
From time to time, one of his monkey grandsons would pick peaches for him. What moved him was that the first two monkey grandsons had become a big family.
Monkey and grandson live forever. Fruits and vegetables are offered to him every year. He is not the kind of stingy person. He gives all his skills to them, which are not allowed to be shared except by the master.
Liu Qiao and Jin Peng also learned a lot of good things from Sun Wukong. They did not treat Sun Wukong badly and gave him hundred-year flat peaches and thousand-year flat peaches in rotation, free of charge.
The two realized that Sun Wukong should have discovered something was wrong, but Sun Wukong had a clear mind and did not point it out, so the two of them just turned a blind eye.
Wearing the vest of Monkey Monkey Sun, they took turns providing Sun Wukong with heavenly materials and earthly treasures to warm and nourish his soul. Sun Wukong's injuries also recovered and improved visibly in their eyes.
As usual, it was the day when the two of them were supposed to give peaches to Sun Wukong, but on this day a kind-hearted monk came.
Sun Wukong felt a little strange, looking at this handsome and handsome monk. He only saw that this monk was wearing a bright red cassock, and his face was better than Pan An's. He was extraordinary handsome and had a kind and peaceful face.
The monk saw Sun Wukong and came forward and asked: "Amitabha, the poor monk Tang Sanzang, came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and came to find his disciples on the orders of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Does the donor know a monk named Sun Wukong?"
Sun Wukong rolled his eyes and asked angrily: "Don't you have eyes? I am the only one here for several miles, and I am the person you are looking for."
Tang Sanzang said with some confusion: "Donor, why are you pressed at the foot of the mountain? Have you violated any heavenly rules?"
Sun Wukong saw the monk's dull look, as if he had tricked him into climbing up the Five Elements Mountain and tearing off the seal.
He rolled his eyes and said pleasantly: "It's nothing, I just have some grudges with some Buddhist people. If you could climb up the mountain and rescue me from the Five Elements Mountain, I would be very grateful!"
Tang Sanzang didn't have any scheming or political ambitions, and his heart was full of Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist principles. Saving human lives was the most important thing, so he widened his eyes and asked: "Donor, how can this poor monk save you?"
After hundreds of years, Sun Wukong had already figured out the characteristics of this seal clearly. After being exposed to wind, sun and 500 years, the original seal had already been riddled with holes.
Sun Wukong pointed his furry right hand at the seal above his head and said, "Just climb up the mountain and tear off that seal!"
Tang Sanzang had the heart of a Bodhisattva, and his ears were soft, so he could not listen to the pleadings of others. Regardless of his mortal body, he listened to Sun Wukong's words and climbed up the towering Five Elements Mountain step by step.
Although Sun Wukong was coaxing Tang Sanzang, he was naturally a little unsure whether the monk in front of him was willing to help him break the seal.
After all, his illustrious reputation has already spread throughout the three realms, and countless versions of the mortal story have been sung, and his image of having great supernatural powers has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Anyone who has heard some rumors will know that he and Lingshan were in trouble, and even the Tathagata Buddha was forced to seal Lingshan for decades by him.
Looking at the Tang Sanzang in front of me, he is naturally a Buddhist. He speaks of Amitabha, so he naturally believes in Tathagata Buddha.
When Sun Wukong saw that Tang Sanzang really listened to his words and slowly climbed up the mountain step by step, he couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart.
He, Sun Wukong, never owes anyone any favors. Now that this monk has saved his life, he will do his best to help him if he has any difficulties in the future.
When Liu Qiao saw Sun Wukong's appearance, he knew that Tathagata Buddha and his plan had been successful. The palace would never owe Tang Sanzang any favors. If he did not repay the favor, he would not be Sun Wukong. He would not be the one with the great supernatural powers in the hearts of the world.
The Monkey King.
Sun Wukong's own heart could not pass this level, so he sent the rebellious Sun Wukong to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures. Only this gentle method would be effective.

Liu Qiao looked at the bustling young men in Gaolaozhuang preparing to marry their wives, and turned around, no longer watching.
Who would have thought that Marshal Tianpeng, who was once so famous in heaven, would now fall into the mortal world and have to marry a wife and have children.
Marshal Tianpeng, who was sweating profusely and feeling that his life was getting better and better, had no idea that the city was destined for disaster and quietly approached him.
Liu Qiao also thought about the combat power of Marshal Tianpeng and Sun Wukong and made a comparison.
Their cultivation, background and teachers are all top-notch in the world. Sun Wukong has the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, and Marshal Tianpeng has the nine-tooth rake made by Taishang Laojun himself using the fire of Liujia.
It was really difficult for two people to fight for a while, and they could compete. It can even be said that in some aspects, Marshal Tianpeng was particularly victorious over Sun Wukong.
Now that Marshal Tianpeng has laid a foundation in the world of mortals, he will soon have a wife, steamed buns, and a hot bed, and live a happy life.
Compared to Journey to the West where he was constantly facing life and death crises and various monsters wanted to make soup out of him, Marshal Tianpeng in Journey to the West in his previous life was constantly sending away his luggage, and it was not unreasonable to return to Gao Laozhuang.
Just like a person is about to become a landowner and start enjoying life. If you ask him to go on a journey where his life or death is uncertain, no one would want to?
Liu Qiao gradually understood what the second senior brother was doing. It turns out that we are all just the second senior brother.
