I talk about life with Wukong [Mythology]

Tao Zi had no way of knowing what happened to Tianpeng and Xuanting. After all, one of these two people didn't come often, and the other always avoided answering. He didn't ask about these things every day like an old lady.

The days passed day by day, early winter came, and ordinary people began to put on thin cotton coats. In order not to be too different from them, Tao Zi also put on thick clothes in a decent way, and often lay down on the balcony. Basking in the sun contentedly, Sun Dasheng imitated the example, and also lay down next to him. The two of them enjoyed this silent and warm moment just like they were on the mountain before.

The sun in early winter was very warm, and the cold wind had not yet reached the point of piercing. Tao Zi watched the thick maple leaves fall to the ground downstairs, and suddenly had the desire to go out for a walk.

When he had an idea, he had to act. Tao Zi pulled Sun Dasheng to change his clothes in a hurry and went out.

"The sun is so nice." Tao Zi said comfortably while walking.

Sun Dasheng agreed very much, as a monkey, he also especially likes to stay under the warm sun.They held hands and walked slowly out of the community. There were not many pedestrians on the road, and the whole path looked very refreshing. Sun Dasheng held Tao Zi's hand and looked at this clear and beautiful picture, and said with a sigh, "Fortunately, I didn't miss you in the end."

"Yes." Tao Zi nodded, "Sometimes when I look back at Shilu, I always feel like a dream. I don't remember many things clearly in the dream, but I think it's all about me."

Sun Dasheng pulled him through row after row of maple trees, "I will never have such a dream again, I will go wherever you go."

Tao Zi nodded and smiled slightly, "Well, good."

A long time ago, I never thought that one day I would meet you, Monkey King, Monkey King.

There is a large square near the community. Usually, there will be a fixed group of middle-aged and elderly women and uncles who gather here to dance square dances. Regardless of spring break, autumn and winter, they are never absent. Many people often stop to watch. Dasheng also likes to watch people gather together Jumping in one place, he thought it was interesting to look at it this way.

The two of them turned to the square where they often come at night. There are still a lot of people gathered here today, most of them are young artists or retirees. They may be rehearsing new dance music today, and many new faces came here. .

Tao Zi and Sun Dasheng sat leisurely on the chairs beside them, watching the spirited old men and women walk in unison, feeling very relaxed.Then, he suddenly saw a familiar person from the crowd.

"Master?" Tao Zi habitually used the honorific in surprise.

Sun Dasheng followed his gaze, and he was surprised to see an old man with a snow-white beard at the end of the line, struggling to keep up with the people in front, "Taishang Laojun?"

At this moment, Taishang Laojun seemed to have stepped on a wrong beat again, and was taught a lesson by a big sister next to him. He actually nodded honestly and admitted his mistake, not at all like he was high in the sky in the past.

Tao Zi was surprised.

The eyes of the two people were too intense, Taishang Laojun finally noticed this side, he turned around and saw the two who were looking at him with complicated eyes, and was also taken aback.

He said a few words to the old lady in front, and then came towards Tao Zi.

Out of perennial conditioned reflex, Tao Zi quickly stood up and was about to bow, but luckily reason stopped him, and he called out, "Master."

As soon as the word "Master" came out, Taishang Laojun's eyes became more complicated.

"Actually... I haven't done anything for you, and this master is ashamed of it." Taishang Laojun said, his tone was full of emotions that he knew himself.

Tao Zi shook his head, "Many things I did back then were voluntary, and had nothing to do with Master."

The two fell into silence. Sun Dasheng looked at this and then that, and cleverly changed the topic, "Old gentleman, what are you doing here?"

Laojun: "..."

As if the topic was more awkward.

"Hey, I'm...experiencing life." Laojun explained.

Sun Dasheng nodded as if enlightened, "Oh... I thought you were dancing in the square!"

Taishang Laojun blushed, "Yes, there is such a meaning, just take a look."

Tao Zi took a funny look at Sun Dasheng who was tearing things apart, his eyes were full of smiles, Sun Houzi was still as noisy as before.

Taishang Laojun and Tao Zi sat on the chair together, looked at the joy and tranquility around them, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I have been in the mortal world for so many years, and I realized that mortals are actually much smarter than we imagined. "

"They have faith, dignity, and ideas, and they will pin their wishes on the gods, but they will not only pin them on us. When they find that the gods don't really bless them, they will Find your own way out."

"They did it, and everything today is their achievement, and the gods can only look at the ocean and sigh." The Taishang Laojun was a little relieved, "In the past, we were high above us, and we put on an expressionless air in the sky all day long, and never took it seriously. Having seen these ordinary mortals, now, they are the ones we are ashamed of."

"Now, I like this place more and more. Immediately, the avenue is invisible, and some surprising things can be found everywhere in the world." Taishang Laojun smiled as he spoke.

Tao Zi listened to him carefully, nodded in response, "Yes, human beings are the most ordinary, but most respectable beings in this world."

The three of them didn't speak a word, looking at the joyful crowd in the square who continued to sing and dance. This was the result of peace.

Tao Zi and Sun Dasheng sat with Taishang Laojun for a while and then stood up. They planned to go shopping again and buy something to cook at home. Laojun looked at their backs and remembered for a long time. Previous things come.

At that time, he didn't know that the little boy who looked very ordinary under his family could become the future Demon King. For a long, long time later, he had been thinking about a question. If he stood up to protect him when he was beaten down, would the things that happened later not happen?

He sat on the chair and thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Time cannot be turned back, so naturally he couldn't think of an answer.

"Old man Li! Are you still dancing!?" The captain not far away was dissatisfied with the lazy Taishang Laojun. Everyone was rehearsing seriously. Why should this old Li, who is the worst dancer, hide in a daze?

Taishang Laojun came back to his senses, stood up cheerfully and ran over, "Here I come, I just want to rest..."

Tao Zi and Dasheng went to a small park nearby, but they didn't expect to meet another acquaintance.

"Master, master, master??" Sun Dasheng looked in horror at the monk who was meditating and closing his eyes in a corner of the park, and almost didn't cry out.

Sure enough, there was a young, handsome and refined monk wearing a gray robe and sitting cross-legged, with a broken porcelain bowl in front of him, with a few coins in it.

Hearing Sun Dasheng's strange cry, the monk opened his eyes and saw the two people in front of him, and greeted them calmly, "Wukong."

"What are you doing?" Sun Dasheng couldn't understand.

"I'm begging for alms." Xuanzang said concisely.

"Alms for fate!?" Sun Dasheng didn't understand even more, "You don't listen to Tathagata reciting Buddha's name in the Daxiong Palace, why come here to make a fortune?"

Xuanzang shook his head, "It is true that listening to Buddhist scriptures in the hall can gain supreme wisdom, but experiencing in the mortal world, I can hear more voices, and I can understand more things."

"What?" Sun Dasheng couldn't understand.

"Three thousand great worlds, Zen is not only found in Buddhism, as long as you have the heart, you can find wonderful opportunities everywhere." What Tang Xuanzang said is similar to what the Taishang Laojun said.

Sun Dasheng knelt down, "Then you don't need to ask for it here, I mean beg for alms, right?"

"Why not?" Xuanzang disagreed, "I can see many different people, and I can think about problems that I couldn't think about before."

As expected of a master...

Tao Zi admired it a little.

"You are the benefactor Tao?" Xuanzang looked at Tao Zi and asked gently.

"Ah... yes." Tao Zi was suddenly a little nervous.

"The villain is really causing you trouble." Xuanzang nodded slightly to him, expressing his recognition of his identity.

"No trouble, the Great Sage takes good care of me." Tao Zi replied, "Master, would you like to visit my house?"

Xuanzang shook his head, "No need, I'll leave later."

While they were talking, two people came from the corner of the park, a man and a woman, both of them were very good-looking and temperamental. With the support of the man, the woman walked slowly past them with her stomach upright and a happy smile. around.

Xuanzang glanced lightly.

She...is still the same as before, elegant, beautiful, gentle and calm, but she won't be like before, reluctantly following the white horse with tears in her eyes and whispering softly "Brother Yu".

That's fine too.

Xuanzang closed his eyes and said: "Amitabha."

Just looking at this, his thoughts of thousands of years have now been dispelled, and he has no regrets ever since.

Xuanzang counted a few coins in the bowl, just enough for two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge for lunch, and maybe a plate of pickles, enough.

"I'll go first." Xuanzang stuffed the broken bowl into his arms, nodded to them lightly, and brushed past them lightly.

Without hello, and without goodbye, Xuanzang gradually disappeared from their sight.

"Will we see you again?" Tao Zi couldn't help asking Sun Dasheng.

Sun Dasheng didn't know either, "I don't know either. My master...was like this before, he wouldn't say anything, and I don't know what he was thinking."

"Now, he is even more invisible than before."

The two stood at the place where Xuanzang had been just now and stood there for a while.

"Let's go, go home." Tao Zi held the hand of the Great Sage, "When we get tired of living in the mortal world, we will go back to the mountains."

"Okay!" Sun Dasheng nodded, "Anyway, it's still the same sentence, I will go wherever Silly Taozi goes."

They walked forward while talking side by side, and slowly disappeared in the maple leaf forest.

But the story doesn't end there, it's just that the text ends here.
