Yang Jian and Sun Wukong

The room was a little dark, no candles were lit, only a few egg-sized night pearls hanging from the roof, emitting white awns.There are eight rows of seats on each side, and there is no one there. The Gathering Hall, which can accommodate 2 people, looks somewhat deserted because of its spaciousness.There are dozens of steps in the middle, and on the high platform is a large expensive and luxurious rosewood carved chair, and the Bull Demon King is sitting on this chair.He was wearing a brocade velvet armor and a military uniform, as if he was about to go to war. The Tian Mie Trident stood beside the seat, shining with a cold light.

Under the Bull Demon King's feet, there was an overturned table case, and a dozen or so crumbling wine jars. The carpet was dripping with wine, and it was a mess.

When Sun Wukong came in, he saw such a scene, as if he came to Jilei Mountain again in a trance, watching the Bull Demon King carefully wipe the banner of Monkey King and said to him, I just thought, one day I will have to do it myself Give it back to you, tell you, even if you are not here, but I have guarded this flag, and I have not insulted the reputation of the Monkey King. In order to return it to you, I have held on for 500 years, Qi'er, what are you doing? just came?

Yes, why did I come here?Monkey King has a sore nose.

The seven brothers knocked their heads on the ground, saying that they did not want to live together, but to die together.

When the second elder brother Demon King Jiao, the fourth elder lion camel king, and the sixth elder tamarin king died in the fire in Huaguo Mountain, Monkey King did not come.When the third brother Peng Mowang led his subordinates to surrender, Monkey King did not come.When the fifth brother Macaque King fought bloody battle against the enemy alone, Monkey King didn't come.Now, why does Sun Wukong still have the face?Thinking of the purpose of coming here today, Sun Wukong almost gritted his teeth secretly.

In the past, every time Sun Wukong came to the Juyi Hall of the Bull Demon King, it was always brightly lit and full of guests.This time it was different, the Bull Demon King was the only one in the huge Gathering Hall, this burly man lowered his head, his huge body was hidden in the shadows, he seemed to be much shorter all of a sudden.

Sun Wukong stepped onto the high platform.

The Bull Demon King played with the wine glass in his hand, without realizing it.

Monkey King walked only one step away from him and stopped.

The Bull Demon King still lowered his head and did not look at Sun Wukong, but quietly exerted force on the hand holding the cup, and the bulging veins on the back of his hand revealed the turmoil in his heart.

Sun Wukong picked up the jug and tilted slightly at the wine glass in Bull Demon King's hand, wanting to pour wine for him.

The Bull Demon King withdrew his hand immediately.

So the wine was poured on the ground, the sound of water ticking, and a small puddle appeared on the ground.

The Bull Demon King raised his head and glanced at Monkey King.Sun Wukong was shocked by this look, and his hands trembled.

Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King used to sing about wine so many times. The brothers reveled all night on the Huaguo Mountain, dancing swords and playing the flute. The passers-by passed away drunk, but now, the Bull Demon King refused to drink even the glass of wine touted by Monkey King.Time is such a cruel thing.

"Lao Niu, I offer you a glass of wine." Sun Wukong ran to the wine glass in Bull Demon King's hand again unrelentingly. "I can't think of seven brothers, until now..." Sun Wukong looked at the pouring wine and said, "Only you and me are left."

This time the Bull Demon King did not hide.He was so shocked by the pain in Sun Wukong's tone that he forgot to dodge.

The wine glass was filled to the brim with tiny ripples and shone silver.Under the mutual reflection of moonlight and pearl light, the figure of the Bull Demon King showed a somewhat gentle temperament.At this time, Monkey King discovered that the Bull Demon King had gray hair on his sideburns at some point.The appearance of a god can stop at the moment when Taoism is first formed, and it will not grow old unless it is over-thought and exhausted, just like Yang Jian back then.After a closer look, it turned out that not only were there white hairs on the sideburns, but also many fine lines at the corners of the eyes of the Bull Demon King. Monkey King knew that it was not just wrinkles that the years had carved on his face.The iron tower man who was indomitable and proud back then has aged to this point. "Brother..." Sun Wukong choked up after saying only two words.

The Bull Demon King didn't drink, he looked down at the wine glass for a while, then raised his hand suddenly, and poured the whole glass of wine on Monkey King's face.Then stand up, turn around and leave.

Sun Wukong wiped his face, laughed desolately and said: "Well done!" He hurriedly chased after him, "Brother!"

The Bull Demon King stopped, turned his back to Sun Wukong and asked, "What is your business here tonight? Has Erlang God already decided how to deal with me?"

The Bull Demon King has always been a straightforward person. Now that he asked, Sun Wukong gritted his teeth and said: "At the military aircraft meeting ten days later, Yang Jian will announce your crime. Brother, you committed the capital crime of disobeying the military order. There is no way to do it." ..."

The Bull Demon King interrupted Monkey King: "What's your attitude?"

"I..." Sun Wukong said cruelly, "I hope you plead guilty, so that Yang Jian and I can be punished lightly."

"Confession?" The Bull Demon King approached Sun Wukong, frowning and asked, "How do you deal with Niu Yao's death?"

Sun Wukong said: "We are about to attack the Heavenly Court. Personal grievances must be put aside at this juncture. Everything will be discussed after the battle is over, so the matter of Niu Yao... will not be pursued for the time being."

The Bull Demon King looked at the person in front of him, as if he was meeting him for the first time, sizing him up carefully.This man was his brother, the partner he had played with since he was a child, the person he had lived and died with, and the king he swore allegiance to for the rest of his life.At the beginning, this person said, "The emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year." The Bull Demon King desperately refused, and followed him against the sky without any complaints.When this person was crushed on the Five Elements Mountain, the Bull Demon King led his men to carry him to death on Jilei Mountain. After fighting for 500 years, no matter how many people died, the Bull Demon King never backed down for a moment.In a word, this person went up the mountain of knives and down the pan of oil, and the Bull Demon King would not frown.Now this man said to him, your son's death cannot be held accountable.

What is a brother?This is called brother.

The Bull Demon King should really get to know Sun Wukong again.

The childish Monkey King finally matured and understood what it means to "focus on the overall situation".No matter what, it is right to focus on the overall situation and not to act emotionally. This is the qualified demon king.The Bull Demon King believes that Sun Wukong, who can calculate the gains and losses in this way, will surely succeed.If Sun Wukong had learned this earlier, maybe he would have succeeded 500 years ago.So the Bull Demon King should be happy, he must be happy, what reason does he have to stop Monkey King from growing?It's just that a thought came to my mind at this moment, and I couldn't suppress it no matter how hard I tried: If I had known today, I would rather die in the Huaguo Mountain fire.

The Bull Demon King moved his lips, but did not make a sound. Thousands of words were crowded in his mind, and finally came together in one sentence: "You are becoming more and more like Erlang God."

After saying this sentence, I don't know what to say.

When Sun Wukong was a little monkey who couldn't do magic, the Bull Demon King knew him.Later, I got to know a lot of people, Tiger Amin, Snail Little Green, Dapeng Bird Little Ben, and countless partners, playing together every day, how happy those days were.Everyone, including the Bull Demon King, thought they could live their lives carefree like this.It wasn't until one day that Sun Wukong was caught by ghost messengers and taken to the underworld at the end of his life, that everyone realized for the first time that there is something called "rules" in the world. If you want to live in this world, you have to follow the rules.It's a fairy.Those who want to hold their fate in their own hands, the gods named them monsters.It turned out that they were all monsters.

Sun Wukong said, let's reverse it!

The macaque king wrote the poem "Just because he has a high heart and dislikes the narrow land, and he wants to break the sky", and made two big flags and hung them in front of the tent of the Chinese army.

Monkey King said, I am the Demon King not for fame and fortune, but to bring everyone together. I am the Demon King, and you must obey my orders. If I let you live in Huaguo Mountain, you will not dare to leave. Our brothers can Drink together every day.

No one left.

They all died in Huaguo Mountain.

They are all buried there.

72 monsters.

The scene of the tragic death of his brothers appeared in front of the Bull Demon King, and he fell into the abyss of memory and couldn't extricate himself.

"Brother." Sun Wukong's voice brought him back to his senses, "Are you trying to rebel?"

All the grievances and hatred could not be suppressed at this moment. The Bull Demon King raised his right hand high, swung it vigorously, and slapped Monkey King on the mouth like a volcano erupted.

Sun Wukong staggered from the beating, but he didn't fight back, shouting: "Don't rebel, don't withdraw from the Qi army!"

The Bull Demon King stepped forward, grabbed Monkey King by the collar, and slapped him again with his backhand.

Sun Wukong was beaten on both cheeks, blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, he didn't wipe it, he just said: "The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, I won't let Yang Jian punish you, and you don't kill Yang Jian, don't rebel."

The Bull Demon King gave him another slap without saying a word.

Sun Wukong had never been beaten like this before, but this made him feel happy. "Yang Jian's crime is only counted on Sun Wukong alone."

The Bull Demon King swung Monkey King with a backhand and threw Monkey King to the ground.He slapped him three times in total, and he slapped him once he said a word.Sun Wukong's face was swollen from the beating.

The Bull Demon King's tears had fallen at some point, his hands were trembling, his tower-like body seemed to have lost all strength, and he couldn't even stand up.

Sun Wukong really wanted to wipe the tears of the Bull Demon King, but he didn't go there after all.He had never seen the Bull Demon King cry like this before. His heart ached and he had difficulty breathing.The Bull Demon King didn't even make a sound when weeping. He really wasn't very good at crying. He was a person who only bleeds but not tears.

"You have changed." The Bull Demon King wiped away his tears and said.

"I haven't changed."

"It's really changed, Qi'er won't talk to me like that."

"I've never changed. If you think I've changed, it just means you didn't know the real me before. I just fell in love with someone, and I was just doing what I had to do. Is that wrong?"

Bull Demon King glanced at Sun Wukong fiercely, and said: "Fighting the sky is to earn a future for the brothers and let them be free. If the brothers are all dead during the process of fighting against the sky, is there any point in fighting against the sky? "

Sun Wukong stood up and said firmly: "When I made an agreement with Yang Jian in the Xuanguang Magic Mirror to fight the gods and monsters, I said that even if all the monsters die and monkeys become extinct from now on, I will fight this battle."

"If everyone dies, it will be for others to make wedding clothes, and it will be cheap for Erlang God Yang Jian. This is not the ending I want."

"That's why you didn't support Xiaotiangou and the others when they attacked Katuo Mountain?"

"Yes."

"But doing so will make more people on our side sacrificed."

"It's good that all the dead are my enemies."

Monkey King has a deep sense of powerlessness.It's not speculative, and he and his closest elder brother have somehow become like they can't talk to each other.He actually understood why the Bull Demon King did this. If he were the Bull Demon King, he would do even better than the Bull Demon King.He didn't even have the qualifications to blame the Bull Demon King, so he felt extremely sad.

"The monsters who died in the Huaguoshan fire can't die in vain. The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother Tathagata will kill them, and Erlang God will also kill them." A dead monster deserves justice, and I, the big brother, will give it to you."

After hearing this, Monkey King knelt down straight with a "plop".

The Bull Demon King was shocked.

"Sun Wukong never kneels to his parents, nor to the world, but to you alone." Sun Wukong bent down, lowered his head, put his palms up on both sides of his head, and performed the most important gift in the demon world, "I beg you, big brother..."

The Bull Demon King was stunned for a long time before he said: "Why do you do this? For that god, you can do this? In fact, long before you came, I had ordered my subordinates to obey your orders, and I also sent someone to deliver the military talisman. When I got to Erlang God, I didn't intend to rebel at all. I made an oath when I was married, and I will abide by it for the rest of my life. No matter what happens, you will always be my seventh brother."

This time it was Monkey King's turn to be shocked. He knelt on the ground and looked up at his elder brother, unable to say a word.
