The bright moon is in the sky and the clouds are floating. At midnight, the mortals in the small town have fallen into sleep. Except for the sound of "dog chasing fox" not far away, the fat pig sleeping soundly in the corner of the yard and the sound of Lu Dongbin turning the pages of the book in the study, the whole world
It was extremely quiet. At this time when the jade plate was in the sky and the breeze was blowing, a monkey and a crow were sitting on the high ridge of the house, enjoying the wine and communicating softly.
"Crow, how have you been over the past few years?" Sun Wukong asked, "I heard that you and the little fox are very busy, helping the underworld deal with various difficult cases of seducing souls and seducing souls. There is almost no time to rest, and you don't even go back to the Daughter Kingdom.
?”
"It's not bad." The crow took a sip of the wine and said, "The underworld is always busy. There are too many injustices in the world, and there are countless resentments and grudges. Naturally, it is too busy." The birdman doesn't like to talk about those ghosts who have suffered injustice.
He and Swing have seen too many things over the years, and they are too tired. "How are you? How are you doing?"
Sun Wukong drank at the moon, his eyes were cold, like an ancient well without waves, but he was vaguely tired, "It's not bad. In your words, 'the majestic Monkey King, the future demon emperor, isn't he free and happy, and having fun as he pleases'"
.'I should be okay?"
Crow smiled, not sure whether he was laughing at Sun Wukong or himself. "Monkey, why did you come out this time? Are you really just relaxing with Zhu Bajie?"
"Otherwise?" Sun Wukong said, "Do I have to have some purpose? Crow, why do you like to speculate on people's hearts so much now?"
"It's not that I like it, it's that I've seen too many human relationships, and I no longer want to believe in any pure friendship between people." After all, there is no way to avoid the crow and the little fox these years.
The feeling that seduces the soul, "Humans are just too smart, with many ideas and thoughts. Friendship and other things are far less important than interests - gods are smarter than people and have more ideas. There is no such thing as doing nothing, it will only get worse."
I’m thinking more and more about ‘more’.”
Sun Wukong laughed and said: "You guys have turned out like this. Don't you always do good deeds? Doing good deeds and accumulating virtue should make you happy, right?"
"What are good deeds? In most cases, when others are in trouble and need help, they lend a helping hand. In other words, good deeds are always accompanied by hardships, injuries, and evil." Crow said, "There are too many good deeds, so naturally I also read them.
There is too much misery, and no matter how warm your heart is, your heart will slowly cool down. Even if you originally had expectations for the world, enthusiasm for the world, and hope for people's friendship, you will inevitably turn into an indifferent and depressed person in the end. Man, rich
Compassion is good, but it’s also bad—it’s a consumable product, and as you use it less and less, it gradually disappears.”
"But as long as you have the little fox with you and friends from Qiu Bird Mountain, your consumption will always be replenished." Sun Wukong drank another glass of wine, "I really just accompany Bajie this time, I don't have any ideas. As for following you
Are you here to protect Taoist Chunyang... Haha, I have nothing to do."
"Tch~ I don't believe it." Crow lay on his back on the roof, staring straight at the pure jade moon, "Monkey, you must have been very hesitant when you were in the Ten Thousand Monsters Forest, right? You already knew where Hongtian was hiding,
Zhu Bajie’s daughter is also in the demon realm, but I don’t know if we should let her meet Zhu Bajie, right?”
"Yeah. That's it." Sun Wukong said, "Crow, I remember I told you when we went to the Wa Palace together that time. I really hope that Bajie can have a little pig girl. Haha, I didn't expect it to happen. It's really great.
.I like that child very much, and I really hope that Bajie and her will get to know each other, but I am afraid of delaying the idiot's fairyland. You are right, but I was very hesitant and finally did not dare to let them meet."
"Bajie said that your fate with that child is over, why are you still asking for trouble?" Birdman said, "Don't you hate Hu Tianyao very much? You are not afraid that he will use that child to get into your relationship and borrow your money.
Making trouble in the name?"
Sun Wukong did not answer directly, but drank another glass of wine, and then imitated a crow and lay on the roof ridge looking at the sky, "Crow, did you know that I once said 'many relatives'?"
"Of course." Birdman said, "That statement has been publicized by the Wa Palace and is known to everyone in the world. How could you not have heard of it?"
"But you know, I have many relatives, but in fact I have no relatives." Sun Wukong said in a sad voice, "I am a monkey that jumped out of a rock. I was born without any relatives, so I cherish all the family ties I got later. I
Cherish Empress Nuwa, cherish the monkeys and grandchildren of Huaguo Mountain, cherish Master Bodhi, cherish Master Xuanzang, cherish Wu Neng and Wu Jing... I love making friends the most, whether they are immortals, great gods, or little demons and ghosts, as long as they are
Even if they are not vicious people, I can call them brothers and sisters. I hope that I have friends and relatives, and I hope that my relatives and friends also have relatives and friends. Bajie is my junior brother and my closest relative. If he can have a daughter, then I will.
A niece, I... eh? Crow, you want the little fox to recognize me as his godfather?"
"Get out of here!" Crow scolded with a smile, "Why did you suddenly mention my daughter? Get out of here!"
"Hehehe..." Sun Wukong smiled and continued, "In short, I am a monkey who was born without relatives. I love liveliness, crowds of people, and the sincerity between relatives. Of course, I did consider Hu Tianyao.
Because of his despicableness and cunning, he didn't dare to let Bajie go see the child. But fortunately, Hu Tianyao was smart, knew how to measure, and respected me, so he didn't dare to make any suggestions and arrange for the two of them to meet by chance. Bajie was stupid,
Even if he knew that I tacitly agreed that Hongtian would stay in the Demon Realm, his non-turning head would not be able to figure out anything about that girl."
When the Monkey King was speaking, Zhu Bajie in the corner of the yard murmured in his sleep, "...Brother Monkey, don't pull my ears, old pig. You see, Brother Birdman rarely pulls Swing Girl's ears..."
"Hahaha... What a fool." Sun Wukong was amused and laughed. He reached out to touch the wine bottle and drank from it. "I went to the west to obtain scriptures and gained a lot, but the scriptures did not catch my eye, and the Buddha's statue did not touch my heart.
, what I care about is the friendship with the master and the junior disciples. Especially Bajie and Wujing, one of them is the apprentice of Emperor Donghua, and the other is the confidant of the Jade Emperor. They initially joined the Buddhist scripture search team for impure purposes, and often secretly
Sowing dissension, showing a vicious look from time to time. But later, as they went through life and death together, and worked together in the same boat, they gradually forgot about their mission and past entanglements, and were willing to enjoy a free and unrestrained journey with a new identity wholeheartedly - I
I'm very pleased. Bajie and Wujing have rarely contacted "outsiders" since they finished studying the scriptures, and they try their best to avoid suspicion. Although I am happy, I also feel that it is difficult for them, so this time I asked him to inform the Qunxing Hall about Chunyang Taoist. Between relatives
We need to accommodate each other, but not endlessly. More importantly, we need to understand and help each other."
"A mere monkey dares to talk about friendship with me. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the world has changed." The crow mocked, "But it's good. It's good if you can enjoy it."
After hearing what the birdman said, Sun Wukong, who had been smiling just now, immediately froze, "Oh~ It's fun, but it's also very tiring~ Master Xuanzang called me 'Wukong', and the three junior brothers respected me as 'senior brother'
As long as I'm here, Empress Nuwa granted me the title of Demon Emperor, the monkeys worshiped me as the King of Monkeys, the Heavenly Court granted me the title of Monkey King, the Buddha allowed me to fight and defeat the Buddha, and the Hongtian left by Master Subhuti, I
My identity is too complicated, messy, and difficult to sort out. No matter what I do, I have to think about it in every possible way, fearing that it will not be thoughtful and unsatisfactory. Alas, I am tired! I, Sun Wukong, am a carefree person, a free person, and I should deserve it.
I am happier than those so-called Qingliuxian, but the fact is that I am exhausted - and this fatigue is what Lao Sun expects, and what I look forward to is what I choose. I must have brought it on myself, hahaha...
"The Great Sage smiled bitterly, his voice full of complex emotions.
"Oh, you're just doing it on your own, you deserve it."
