Chapter 1961 Persuading the Great Sage to Apprentice
The Monkey King said angrily: "But it was you who destroyed Huaguo Mountain first. I want to go back and see how my monkeys are doing."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva shook his head, "Idiot, the six paths of reincarnation have their own fair judgment. Under the cause and effect, they will have their own place after death."
"If we are destined to meet each other, why should we force them to be monkeys with you?"
"If a monkey does not become a demon, its lifespan will be shorter than that of humans, and its wisdom will not be as much as that of humans. It will just waste its time in ignorance."
"Be a human being, enjoy the love of your parents, enjoy your childhood, marry a wife and have children when you grow up, and your family will be happy."
"Although it is tiring to take care of housework and worry about every detail, compared to when I was a monkey, sleeping in the open air every day, being exposed to the wind and rain, eating wild fruits and drinking cold stream water, isn't this a judgment of superiority?"
"Yeah." The Monkey King scratched his head and couldn't think of anything to say in defense.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva put his hands together and said, "Great Sage, all things have their own destiny. Letting go is for their own good. Let it go."
After all, the Monkey King has been suppressed for five hundred years and has been absorbing the Buddha's energy. His wild nature is no longer so full, and he still has some Buddha nature.
Guanyin Bodhisattva's words aroused his Buddhist heart, so he nodded and passed.
"Okay, I won't talk about the stupid things in the past, but I, Old Sun, don't want to accept this young monk as my teacher. If you spread the word, you will be laughed to death."
Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled and said, "Amitabha, the origin of this young monk cannot be said for the time being, but I guarantee that he has a great background. I guarantee that you will not regret it in the future."
The Monkey King waved his hands repeatedly, "The future is the future, don't try to fool me, grandson."
"Well, then you have to promise not to spread the word."
"Okay, I am very strict with my words."
"Amitabha, Xuan Yan, you'd better not know these things. I've blocked your hearing for the time being." Guanyin Bodhisattva said to Xuan Yan.
Xuan Yan nodded numbly, he was overwhelmed by the huge amount of information and couldn't turn around.
Pointing at Xuan Yan, his hearing was blocked.
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said with his hands to the west, "Xuanyan is sitting in front of Amitabha. The golden cicada on the Bodhi tree is also a demon like you."
Upon hearing this, the Monkey King suddenly changed his view of Xuan Yan and became less disgusted with him.
…
"He later sat down to practice Buddhism and became a disciple of Tathagata Buddha."
"You were pressed under the Wuzhi Mountain, and he suffered more than you."
"He has already become a Buddha. In order to be your master, he gave up his cultivation and entered reincarnation, suffered the sufferings of all the worlds, and accumulated the merits of cause and effect in the past lives, so that we can meet today."
"For example, in this life, his father was killed before he was born, and he became a river child when he was born. Fortunately, his master fished him out of the river, took him back to the temple, and raised him."
"Having no father or mother, being bullied behind your back, do you understand the pain?"
The Monkey King was greatly shocked, because he understood, really understood, that when he was born as a little monkey, although he was very strong, no one wanted to see him.
He knew the feeling of being helpless and alone.
As the feeling of sympathy for each other emerged, the Monkey King completely changed his view of Xuan Yan.
…
"You think it's his first time, no, he has been reincarnated many times, and every reincarnation will come, but he missed it every time before, because the cause and effect between you and his merits are not enough for you to meet.
.”
"It wasn't until today that you really met each other. This is fate."
The Monkey King was greatly shocked when he heard this. He thought about passing by him again and again, and finally he was convinced.
But he still couldn't change his stubborn words, "Okay, I admit it, so that others won't say that I don't mean what I say."
"Amitabha." Guanyin Bodhisattva breathed a sigh of relief and finally trapped the monkey.
…
Unlock Xuan Yan’s hearing and reintroduce the Monkey King.
Xuan Yan felt very confused, "Why should I let him become his master? How can a poor monk be his master if he has any virtue?"
The Monkey King pulled him to stand, "Why do you think so much? I have agreed, why are you still hesitating? Mother-in-law, stand still."
"Oh." Xuan Yan stood up and received the Monkey King's apprenticeship ceremony.
"Master, please bow to me, my disciple."
"Amitabha, this poor monk doesn't know how to be a master. If you do something bad in the future, please speak up."
"I know, I know, can my old grandson get up?"
"Ah, get up quickly. You don't have to do this big ceremony in the future."
"Okay."
Xuan Ji thought about it, "By the way, your real name is Sun Wukong, and Wukong can also be your Buddhist name. However, you have not yet become a monk, so you will first use a nickname and call yourself Sun Xingzhe to others."
The Monkey King scratched his cheek and said, "Sun Walker? It's okay, but it doesn't sound as good as Sun Wukong."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, everything is over. This poor nun will return to Lingshan to return to my life, Buddha Tathagata."
Xuan Yan bowed and clasped his hands together, "Best farewell to the Bodhisattva."
The Monkey King said carelessly, "Let's go, let's go, tell the fat man, I will definitely go find him."
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva just pretended not to hear, and together with Hui'an Monk, they put their palms together to Yamazaki and others, and while Yamazaki and others returned the gift, they flew away slowly but really quickly.
Xuan Gan was surprised, "Wukong, what did you say about the fat man just now?"
The Monkey King laughed and said, "Tathagata, that fat guy really had to dig a door to let him pass. I don't know how many white steamed buns I ate in the night."
"Amitabha, it's my fault." Xuan Gan was sweating and clasped his hands to the west, "Please Buddha don't care about Wukong's joke."
"Don't worry, the fat man has a big belly and is not so stingy."
The Monkey King continued his double-entendre jokes. He couldn't win in a fight, so he could just take advantage of him.
Yamazaki was amused, and immediately said with a straight face: "Okay, Xuan Yan, we have to go too."
"Donor?" Xuan Yan was stunned.
He never felt lonely because he was surrounded by people he had known since childhood, such as Yamazaki and others. Now that he was separated, his feeling was stronger than the separation from his master.
Yamazaki chuckled and said: "I originally planned to separate after passing Wuzhishan. You have your destiny. If we follow you all the time, it will only do bad things."
"Now that you and Sun Xingzhe have become masters and disciples, there must be cause and effect waiting for you to understand. The situation is unknown, so we shouldn't get involved, lest it be a disservice."
The Monkey King was convinced, "That's right, you can go."
"Originally I wanted to treat you to a drink, but this place is deserted. I'll decide where to meet you in the future."
Yamazaki waved his hand and said, "There's no need to drink. I gave you fruit for another reason."
"What's the reason?"
"I won't hide this from you. Back then, I was cornered by Buddhism and Heaven. I came to you to use you as a pawn to negotiate with them."
"piece?"
"Yes, if they must kill me, I will kill you."
"Why is this?"
"You have a big cause and effect with them. I don't know the details."
The Monkey King bared his teeth, "Ha, since I don't know, what else can I say?"
Yamazaki shook his head, "Have you never felt strange? With your ability, why did Heaven allow you to become the Monkey King?"
"Based on your ability, do you really think you can cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace without dying?"
