Preventing Horse Dropping Every Day

Chapter 3

Time flew by. Five hundred years seemed to be a long time, but it passed in the blink of an eye.

When Cheng Mu went to fetch water for the Monkey King to wash his face, the Monkey King had an uninvited guest.

The Monkey King looked at the luxuriously dressed woman standing on the cloud. He hid the disgust in his eyes and said excitedly, "Master Avalokitesvara, why are you here? Can you let me out now?"

Master Avalokitesvara looked at the monkey who had been suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years. He was not as miserable as she had imagined. Instead, he was living a good life. This change made her very unhappy. She also knew that all this was done by the person who even they could not find the real origin of.

However, the Monkey King was still useful, so she smiled at him and said, "You have suffered under the mountain for five hundred years. Your punishment is enough, so I will show you a way out. If you agree, you can come out. If you don't, you will still suffer under the mountain. It's all up to you."

The Monkey King was silent for a while and asked, "May I know what Master Avalokitesvara is talking about?"

Avalokitesvara said, "A month later, a monk from the Tang Dynasty will pass by here. As long as you agree to accompany him to the Western Paradise to get the Buddhist scriptures, he will tear the talisman and save you."

"What's the monk's name? It will be easier for me to recognize him."

Avalokitesvara saw that the Monkey King had agreed. She was happy and replied, "His name is Xuanzang, also known as Tang Xuanzang."

"I will remember it. Thank you, Master Avalokitesvara, for coming to tell me."

"Since you have made up your mind, I will leave first. You are on your own." Avalokitesvara then stepped on the cloud and left.

Sun Wukong knew that those disgusting so-called immortals in the sky were no longer observing him. His pair of black eyes did not conceal his annoyance. Heh, he was going to the Western Paradise to obtain the Buddhist scriptures. He and the monk were probably chess pieces in their game. However, he could only obey them now because he was not strong enough. However, it was impossible for him to be obedient.

"Brother Wukong, I am back."

Cheng Mu's soft voice came from not far away, which made the Monkey King's bad mood a lot better.

Cheng Mu was holding a wooden basin that the Monkey King had transformed into. It was filled with water. He walked in front of the Monkey King and began to wipe his face and hands with a cloth.

The Monkey King looked at Cheng Mu. 500 years had passed, but his face was still the same as when he first met him. He was delicate and cute, and his personality was still as pure. This was also what he wanted to see. During his time in the sky, he had seen too many people who said one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.

Immortals.

After Cheng Mu wiped the Monkey King clean, he found that the Monkey King had been looking at his face. He could not help but blush and asked in a cute and innocent manner, "Brother Wukong, why do you keep looking at me? Is there something on my face?"

The Monkey King shook his head and said, "There is nothing. I just feel that you are still the same as when I first met you. You are still as good-looking as before."

After hearing the Monkey King's words, Cheng Mu's face turned even redder. He said shyly, "Brother Wukong is also very handsome."

The word 'handsome' was told to him by 259. It was usually used to describe men with good looks.

The Monkey King burst out laughing. He looked at Cheng Mu and asked, "I have a monkey face now. Do you really think that I am handsome?"

Cheng Mu replied seriously, "Yes, and I think that when Brother Wukong turns into a human, you will definitely be even more handsome."

Especially that pair of black eyes. They were as dazzling as the black gemstones he saw. He secretly thought to himself.

The Monkey King smiled and muttered, "When the time comes, I will show you to your heart's content."

Bang. Cheng Mu thought that his face must be even redder now because he felt that his cheeks were boiling. However, he was really looking forward to seeing what Brother Wukong's human appearance would look like.

"By the way, Cheng Mu, I will be able to come out in a month. When the time comes, will you … leave with me?

Or go somewhere else? "The Monkey King asked Cheng Mu. He wanted to get the answer he wanted from this person.

When Cheng Mu heard the Monkey King's words, he said happily, "Does this mean that Brother Wukong can come out?"

"Yes." Then the Monkey King told Cheng Mu everything that Avalokitesvara said to him.

After hearing this, Cheng Mu became unhappy. He pouted his little mouth and said with some grievance, "Brother Wukong can come out. I don't know if you still want me to stay by your side."

When the Monkey King saw that Cheng Mu was sad, he felt bad and hurriedly said, "Why wouldn't I want you? Of course I want you. It's just that I don't know what you mean …"

"I didn't expect that after five hundred years, Brother Wukong still doesn't believe in my feelings. If I could leave, I would have left long ago. It's so sad." After saying this, Cheng Mu didn't look at the Monkey King anymore. He lowered his head and looked at the ground.

Seeing that he had made Cheng Mu even sadder, the Monkey King hurriedly explained, "I believe in you. It's just that I don't have confidence in myself. You stayed with me for five hundred years without any complaints. How can I not believe you? Cheng Mu, didn't you just say that you want to see me in human form? When I come out, I'll show you as long as you want to see me."

"Brother Wukong, is what you said true? Then you can't go back on your words. Let's pinky swear as proof."

Cheng Mu raised his head and stretched out his white little finger. Then the Monkey King also stretched out his finger and the two fingers intertwined.

Cheng Mu said, "Pinky swear can't be changed for a hundred years. Whoever doesn't keep his word is a dog."

The Monkey King looked at Cheng Mu with a doting look in his eyes that he didn't notice. "Okay, it won't change."

In the Tang Dynasty, thousands of miles away from here, a monk with a delicate face and big ears had received the guidance of Avalokitesvara and rushed to the place where the Monkey King was. This person was Tang Xuanzang, also known as Tang Seng.

A month later, the Tang Seng finally arrived at the place that Avalokitesvara had told him about. It was near the Five Elements Mountain. He walked forward slowly step by step with the Buddhist staff in his hand. The several attendants sent by the Emperor to escort him had already left when they arrived at the mountain. Now he was alone.

"Brother Wukong, someone is coming. It should be the monk who can save you."

Cheng Mu didn't slack off in the past 500 years. Instead, he worked hard. He practiced every day with the help of a cultivation book given to him by 259, so he could easily hear the unfamiliar footsteps coming from the mountain forest.

The Monkey King said, "Cheng Mu, go and bring him here, in case he gets lost and wastes our time."

"Okay, Brother Wukong, I'll go now." Cheng Mu then ran into the forest.

Tang Sanzang, who was in the forest, felt dizzy. This forest was too big. He couldn't even find the place where his disciple, who had accompanied him to fetch the Western Sutra, was.

"Master, are you lost?"

The sudden voice startled the Tang Seng. After calming down, he turned around and saw a handsome young man in a blue robe standing there. He looked like a young master from a noble family.

The Tang Seng asked, "Who are you …?"

"Master, I'm Cheng Mu. May I ask if you are the Holy Monk Xuanzang from the Tang Dynasty?"

"I am. How do you know my name?"

Cheng Mu smiled and said, "Everything was guided by Avalokitesvara. The person you are looking for is just ahead. I'm here to take you there."

As soon as he heard Avalokitesvara's name, the Tang Seng let down his guard and followed Cheng Mu all the way forward. Then, he saw a man with a monkey's face under a mountain. It should be a human, because the Tang Seng saw his hands.

After bringing the Tang Seng to the place, Cheng Mu ran to the Monkey King and reported, "Brother Wukong, I've brought him here."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Cheng Mu."

Cheng Mu smiled sweetly at the Monkey King and said, "It's no trouble at all. As long as Brother Wukong can come out."

The Tang Seng, who was standing behind, looked at the conversation between the two people in front of him. It seemed that the two people were very familiar with each other. He thought of his task and walked forward to the Monkey King and said, "I came here under the guidance of Avalokitesvara. You are my disciple, right? How can I save you?"

The Monkey King said coldly, "Master, as long as you tear down the duplicated talisman paper on the top of the mountain, I can come out."

The Tang Seng did not care about the Monkey King's indifferent attitude towards him, because in his heart, he felt that this disciple's duty was to protect him so that he could successfully go to the Western Paradise to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures. After that, they could go their separate ways.

At this time, Cheng Mu said, "Holy Monk, it will be slow and tiring for you to climb to the top of the mountain alone, so let me help you." After that, Cheng Mu took the Tang Seng's hand and slowly rose into the sky with him.

"Well, the Holy Monk's talisman paper is in front of you. Just tear it off."

The Tang Seng held Cheng Mu's hand tightly with one hand, afraid that he would fall. Then, he stretched out his other hand and began to tear the talisman paper. As soon as his hand touched the talisman paper, the talisman paper automatically fell off.

The Monkey King, who was pressed under the mountain, also felt that the gravity caused by the talisman paper had disappeared. Now, he was about to break out of the mountain again. He shouted to the sky, "Cheng Mu, take Master to a place farther away. I'm coming out."

Cheng Mu immediately replied, "Okay, Brother Wukong.

"Holy Monk, let's go." Cheng Mu took the Tang Seng to the other side of the forest.

On the other side, the Monkey King gathered all the strength in his body and then exerted his strength. With a loud bang, he successfully came out from the bottom of the mountain.

It was so loud that even Tang Seng and Cheng Mu, who were on the other side of the forest, heard it. He set up a barrier around the Tang Seng and said to him, "Holy Monk, I've set up a barrier around you. As long as you don't go out, you'll be fine. I'll go to Brother Wukong first." After that, without waiting for the Tang Seng to answer, Cheng Mu cast a spell and flew towards the Monkey King.
