MTL - The Monkey King-Chapter 750 : Let's talk

  What is westbound?

   Westbound is Xuanzang's journey of preaching. That is the internal struggle of Buddhism, the struggle of Buddhism. It was a bet between Xuanzang, Tathagata, and Sun Wukong. This is something that everyone in the three realms knows. Although it has the aftertaste of the disaster more than 600 years ago, at best, it is just a local war.

   However, now there are two more players in this game, one is Subhuti and the other is Laojun. As a result, the nature has completely changed.

   In just a few hours, everything that happened in the Xie Yue Sanxing Cave has quietly spread to every corner of the Three Realms.

  The Dragon King of the Four Seas gathered his followers scattered all over the place.

   The Ten Halls of Yama sealed the entire Yama Hall like an iron barrel, and strictly controlled every soul entering and leaving the underworld.

   As the nominally highest administrative center, the Heavenly Court seals the Nantianmen tightly. Even the middle- and lower-level Buddhist practitioners scattered all over the place began to gather in Lingshan.

   However, these are all quietly carried out. Everyone's nerves are tense, but everyone is unwilling to be the first wave to be involved in the center of the vortex, even Buddhism.

  Monkeys are not scary, what is really scary... is Lao Jun, the "inaction" that can restrain all cultivators of the heavens. It can be like a yoke, binding everything firmly.

   In a short period of time, the figure who once controlled the Three Realms for 10,000 years after more than 600 years seemed to once again enveloped everything in the world, overwhelming everything.

   However, just as those pair of eyes were opening their eyes as wide as possible, carefully examining every move, the monkey in the center of the whirlpool was still at a loss.

   On the way back, the misty words Laojun said were repeated in the monkey's mind. In the end, the word "price" remained.

   "The price... what does it mean?"

   He muttered to himself, countless images flashed through his mind.

   For eight hundred years, he seemed to be paying the price all the time, willingly or forced to give up many things for what he wanted. However, in the end, it was just loneliness.

   But, even so, could he refuse?

  Thinking about it, the monkey couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What    placed in front of him has never turned back.

  The most terrible thing in life is not "choice", but "no choice". He knew he was wrong, but he had to grit his teeth and continue to go down. Keep walking, keep walking, until both legs are numb, still dare not stop. Just because once it stops, it will be smashed to pieces.

   In this case, Lao Jun did not explain it clearly, probably because the price was really heavy. So heavy that even in the current situation, the monkey will not necessarily agree...

  Thinking about it, his heart was already half cold.

   He suddenly had an idea, at this moment, leave everything behind, find a place to hide, and don't care about anything. It was as if he had been crushed under the Five Elements Mountain at the beginning, pretending to be crazy and selling stupid for more than 600 years, obviously he could leave at any time, but he did not dare to leave, and he lived a life like a corpse.

  Although it is sad, isn't it precisely because he did not leave the Five Elements Mountain that the Three Realms have been peaceful in these hundreds of years?

   It was a mistake, and everything was lost.

  Because of the glimmer of hope given by Xuanzang, he decided to gamble everything and fight to the death. However, in the end, the result seems to be worse than before... If he loses this time, he will probably lose his mind and disappear completely. Then, no one will remember him anymore.

  The monkey thought about it all the way, but it took a full hour to fly for a short distance of a thousand miles. It was already full of stars when we arrived.

   In the distance, he saw Xuanzang lit a bonfire and sat on the edge of a dry creek. The others all gathered on the other side of the creek, which was ten feet apart, whispering to each other, looking in the direction of Xuanzang from time to time.

   Seeing the monkeys come back, they trotted to meet them one by one.

"what happened?"

   "Master." Lu Liuguai said hesitantly, "Master Xuanzang let us go..."

   "Oh?" The monkey hummed and said leisurely: "I thought you wanted to say that he changed his mind and wanted us to stay. Shouldn't that be the case? When did he not let us go?"

   "This time is different." The Bull Demon King on the side interjected, but he just kept his mouth open for a long time without writing, and kept looking back at Xuanzang.

   Behind that, the demon generals also looked at the monkey one by one. Those eyes were obviously different from those of Leiyin County before.

  Probably...they no longer have confidence in going west.

   glanced at the silent canopy, and the monkey clapped his hands casually and said, "Okay, I'll talk to him. It's time to talk about it."

   said, he has already stepped forward and slowly walked towards Xuanzang.

   Seeing the monkey coming from a distance, Xuanzang couldn't help but froze for a moment, but he just blinked his eyes twice, put his hands together, and still sat motionless.

   Walking in front of Xuanzang step by step, the monkey bowed and sat down slowly.

   "I heard that you drove them away?"

   Xuanzang picked up a branch and threw it into the bonfire, saying, "Poor monk, just let them live their own lives."

   "Hey." The monkey reached out and rubbed his face: "They are my subordinates."

   "Humans are neither noble nor lowly, so are demons." Taking a deep breath, Xuanzang sighed softly: "No one should die for someone else's dream."

  Monkey looked up at Xuanzang, pursed his lips and said, "What do you want to say?"

   "Leiyin County, Lord Sage, several of your subordinates died unexpectedly. The poor monk felt that leaving them would only increase casualties."

   Hearing this, the monkey couldn't help but burst out laughing, sneering.

   "Is it interesting to say this? From the day I left Huaguo Mountain, my own life has been hung on my belt, and it may be gone at any time. In this world, there is no such thing as undead, as long as you want to live."

   Xuanzang lowered his eyes slightly and did not answer.

The two were silent for a long time, and the monkey said softly: "I know you want us to go. In fact, to put it bluntly, you have been intervening several times on the way because of us... I beg France, Leyin County, it's all like this. But you don't say it, because you asked me to come out at the beginning. Some words, once they are said, will tear my face. I understand this. However, I still have to ask you a clear question today, and I hope you can answer honestly. I. Answer directly."

   After saying that, the monkey glanced at Xuanzang quietly.

   Xuanzang said lightly: "Master, please speak."

"I don't want to bet any more, I want a solid answer. Westward journey, which step has it taken, and how sure are you?" He raised his head, and the monkey stared at Xuanzang with wide eyes, every word at a time. "Give me a letter of approval, so that I know what to do next." (To be continued~^~)
