Chapter 195 Monkey Emo
Chapter 195 Monkey Emo
Why is it that even his cousin didn't know, but Wang Teng did...?
Thinking of this, Yang Jian became even more convinced of his idea that Wang Teng must be his cousin-in-law!
Wang Teng looked helplessly at the two who had been talking for so long without getting to the point: "Alright, let's get down to business. Qi Ye, didn't you mention a monkey?"
"Oh, a monkey? Yes, yes, Ah Jin, Nezha, what's your relationship with the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong?"
Yang Jian looked at his cousin with some surprise: "Cousin, why would you ask that? We're on good terms with Sun Wukong, right? But how do you know him? Besides, shouldn't he have known him for a long time…?"
Nezha nodded in agreement: "That's right, back then Sun Wukong stormed into the Forbidden Ruins, and then..."
Seeing Yang Jian and Nezha's expressions, Lin Qiye sighed and pulled the two into the fourth room.
Lin Qiye looked at the wooden sign on the door of the fourth room with a complicated expression.
Nezha exclaimed, "Hey, isn't this the pattern of the monkey's staff? Qi Ye, how did you know? Do you have the monkey's golden cudgel?"
Lin Qiye sighed: "Well, you should see for yourselves."
As he spoke, Lin Qiye pushed open the door to the fourth room.
There was no bed, no table or chair, nothing at all, only an ancient ape draped in a robe sitting quietly cross-legged on the ground.
Dark brown fur was visible, the ape's eyes were closed, and its hands were clasped together, like an ancient Buddha.
"Great Sage~"
At this time,
A soft murmur came from the side: "Monkey, what are you doing here!"
Sun Wukong, who had been expressionless, suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared straight at the person who spoke.
"Nezha! Yang Jian! What are you doing here?"
Yang Jian and Nezha stared in disbelief at the ancient ape before them.
In my mind, monkeys are absolutely fearless.
When he gets angry, he dares to cause trouble for the Dragon King of the Sea, the Underworld, and the Heavenly Palace, and he even made a bet with Buddha.
But the monkey in front of me looked as forlorn as an old ape in its twilight years.
"Monkey, what happened to you? You're the famous Monkey King!"
Sun Wukong stood up, staggered a couple of steps, and said with a sorrowful expression, "Where is the Great Sage Equal to Heaven? I'm just a monkey who can't even protect his own junior brother."
Nezha understood and stepped forward: "Monkey, what happened between Marshal Tianpeng and General Juanlian wasn't your fault, it was..."
"It's my fault for not protecting them. If I were stronger..."
Wang Teng looked at the disillusioned monkey in front of him with exasperation: "Bima Wen, what's wrong with you now? Don't forget, you are the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, the one who fought against heaven and earth."
Upon hearing the title "弼马温" (Bima Wen, a lowly official in charge of horses), the monkey's expression instantly changed. He then clasped his hands together, saying calmly, "Boy, you don't understand! I used to naively believe that some things could be changed by force. Later, I realized that it was all in vain. Perhaps, as that old Buddha said, under the turning of fate, everything seems so ridiculous! Avoiding destiny and karma, all sorts of shackles bind my true self. By following destiny and bearing karma, I finally know who I am today!"
Wang Teng laughed loudly, "Sun Wukong, if you're really scared by the enemy's power, then you should hand over the title of Great Sage Equal to Heaven to someone else as soon as possible. To be honest, seeing you, Sun Wukong, is really disappointing. The Sun Wukong I remember was arrogant and unruly in the face of the Heavenly Court's injustice, disdainful of the Heavenly Court's authority, punching 100,000 heavenly soldiers and kicking the Nine Luminaries and Ten Capitals..."
"But they're all dead, all dead!!!"
Wang Teng pointed dismissively at Lin Qiye and Yang Jian: "So what? Lin Qiye and Yang Jin, originally, during the Cangnan calamity ten years ago, everyone except Lin Qiye should have perished. But didn't I still reverse ten years of time and quell the Cangnan calamity? The people of Cangnan are still alive and well. Monkey, encountering calamity isn't scary, the problem is whether you dare to face it squarely, whether you dare to defeat it!"
The monkey exuded an awe-inspiring aura and roared to the sky, "I dare! Of course I dare!"
"That's fine! Let me tell you, if you're powerful enough, you can just manipulate the timeline and go back to the time when your junior brother and the others were killed, then descend like a divine being and save them from their predicament. Your current impotent rage can only stem from your lack of strength. Monkey, when you are strong enough, you will find that all kinds of difficulties in the world will eventually vanish with a single punch."
"If the strength of the main god is not enough, then you should improve to the supreme god! If the strength of the supreme god is not enough, then you should advance to the god-king realm, the heavenly venerable realm, the half-step ascending realm... What is the point of you sitting here for a hundred years? You might as well do your best to improve your strength and see if you can give your junior brother a chance to live."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Wukong's cassock began to flutter uncontrollably.
When Wang Teng saw the robe bulge out, his eyes lit up. This robe must be a tool used by the Buddhas to suppress Sun Wukong's demonic nature.
However, while suppressing Sun Wukong's true self, it also suppressed his emotional fluctuations.
The fact that this robe is bulging now, does it mean...?
Wang Teng immediately started singing: "What use is this iron rod to me? No, no..."
Lin Qiye and the other two turned to look at Wang Teng in disbelief. Wang Teng continued singing: "I want this iron rod to make you drunk and dance like a demon, I have this transformation to confuse and bewilder. I will shatter the heavens and be unrestrained and arrogant. The world is evil and the path is dangerous, but you will not be able to escape it in the end. With this rod, I will make you vanish into thin air."
Looking at Sun Wukong's increasingly bulging cassock, Lin Qiye couldn't help but worry and said, "Won't this cassock break?"
"The cassock, haha, the Victorious Fighting Buddha? These are nothing more than things used to seal away the Monkey King's demonic nature. In my eyes, the id, the ego, and the superego are all me. The Great Sage Equal to Heaven is the true Monkey King. The Monkey King in my heart will make the sky no longer able to cover his eyes; he will make the earth no longer able to bury his heart; he will make all the demons and monsters of this bright world vanish into thin air!"
Sun Wukong must have witnessed firsthand the scene of Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing being devoured by numerous monsters in the mist. Unable to eliminate all the demons in the mist, he felt a deep sense of guilt and depression.
In addition, the seal of this cassock kept Monkey King in a depressed state for a long time, which is why he suffered from depression.
In other words,
Great Sage, you're emo!
Since then, the once proud and strong-willed Sheng Da has never been able to lift his head again.
Wang Teng looked expectantly at the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in front of him, whose robes were constantly fluttering, hoping that it could break the shackles in his heart.
