Chapter 37: Monks from Chang'an
The wrinkled old monk stepped onto the land of Huaguo Mountain.
"Elder Guanghui, you are finally here."
A group of monks greeted him in front of him and said, "If you don't come, you're afraid you won't be able to come."
"Why?"
Elder Guanghui asked, "Does the Monkey King not like monks?"
"No." The monks replied with a smile: "The Monkey King is friendly to monks, but this flower and fruit mountain monster is often troubled and has begun to restrict outsiders from coming in. If you are not a person with superb skills or a businessman, you may not be able to come in the future."
"I see."
The elder is relieved.
He looked around the monsters stuffed with the harbor.
"Good, good, good."
Guanghui said something and closed her hands: "The monsters here really don't have the energy to kill."
"Elder."
The monks helped him pick up the salute and said, "We will take you some food and then make arrangements."
“Okay.”
Guanghui followed the monks into Rok Fukushima.
On Rokufuku Island, monsters came and went, and a group of monks passed by them, and they were not surprised at all.
In the past twenty years, monks have been in Huaguo Mountain.
There are a lot of vegetarian food here, and many monks are reluctant to leave after staying there.
Several banshees walked past Elder Guanghui.
"I heard that some phoenixes are bigger than mountains. With the ability of the king, you can catch a phoenix, let it carry our royal city and sail around the sky. Isn't this easier?"
When Guanghui heard a banshee talking, he couldn't help but stop and looked back at the backs of the banshees.
"What are they talking about?"
Guanghui asked.
The monks replied: "What they are talking about the royal city, so the elders don't have to pay attention to it."
The monks took Guanghui into the restaurant and ordered some vegetarian food.
Guanghui noticed that there were groups of monsters enjoying meat on the table next door.
“Is there meat food here?”
Guanghui frowned.
"Huaguoshan is mainly vegetarian, but there are also meat foods."
The monks answered.
The dispute between humans and demons about food has lasted for a long time, but there is no answer.
Fortunately, not every animal can become a spirit. With the same life span, animals with limited qualifications cannot even be activated - the monsters in Huaguo Mountain also need to eat meat. Although the Monkey King prohibited eating people, it did not prohibit meat.
Although it was not prohibited, the monsters were not allowed to harm their compatriots, and eventually found a way to compromise.
That is an animal that has never opened its wisdom.
"Most of these meat foods are raised by people, or come in from Aolai Country."
The monks said.
"I see."
Guanghui sighed: "This is the fortune of heaven and earth."
How can the Monkey King solve the fortune that even the Buddha cannot change?
The restaurant was served, and the monks picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
"It's really the ultimate taste in the world."
Guanghui praised it endlessly.
The monks smiled and said, "Elder, are the oil pressing and cooking techniques in Huaguo Mountain far superior to those of Chang'an?"
Guanghui nodded. The Huaguo Mountain has abundant resources and is indeed well-deserved.
The monks were having a meal, and Guanghui suddenly felt a chill coming from behind.
He turned his head and saw a bear demon leading two monsters into the restaurant.
"What a strong black gas!"
The old monk was alert. The magic power of this monster was extraordinary, and he was so heavy that he had done so many evil things.
Fortunately, the bear demon walked directly past them and sat down at the nearby table.
"Congratulations to the King, congratulations to the King, you will be the general of Huaguo Mountain from tomorrow!"
The two demons of the Wolf Sable toast the Bear Demon King.
"Don't call me the king in the future."
The Bear Demon King said with satisfaction: "There are only two kings in Huaguo Mountain."
He took a sip of wine and said, "But I have become a general, why doesn't the deer demon sister like me?"
"The general doesn't know that the banshee in Huaguo Mountain is very particular."
The wolf demon said: "They don't like barbaric monsters. When the general was the devil king, he was stained with a lot of turbid air, so the deer demon naturally didn't like it."
"I see."
The Bear Demon King suddenly realized that the Deer Demon sister thought he was not clean enough.
That's right, the deer demon sister loves beauty and must like clean monsters.
"I met the king yesterday and saw his whole body clear air lingering." The Bear Demon King sighed, "What should I do to become like him?"
"Don't worry, big general."
Diao Yao said: "Occasionally monsters do evil in Huaguo Mountain. The general is now responsible for protecting Huaguo Mountain and protecting the country. In less than a hundred years, the turbid air on his body will definitely disappear and be replaced by a body of clear air."
"That's right." The wolf demon continued: "At that time, the general is full of clean energy, and it is not impossible to achieve the immortal path."
"There are such good things?"
The Bear Demon King was immediately angry: "Then I must work hard."
After hearing what he said, Elder Guanghui couldn't help but nod.
Sun Wukong is worthy of being a famous virtuous monkey, and he can actually make such a cruel demon change his evil and good.
"I want to meet the Monkey King."
After filling his stomach, Guanghui ordered the monks: "You must ask for the Monkey King for me."
However, when the idea was proposed, Sun Wukong would not have time to see him a few days later.
Guanghui met Sun Wukong in the water curtain cave.
When he saw him, Guanghui seemed to see a golden lotus blooming behind Sun Wukong.
"The Monkey King has Buddha nature."
Guanghui thought this way, Sun Wukong had great merits, a pure aura, and was extremely friendly to Buddhism.
However, intimately, Guanghui felt that Sun Wukong's Buddha nature was different from himself.
Sun Wukong asked, "Where did the monk come from?"
"I came from Chang'an, Han Dynasty."
Guanghui bowed and bowed: "I beg the Monkey King to give me a residence."
“It’s not difficult to give a residence.”
Sun Wukong looked at Guanghui carefully.
This is a monk who has attained enlightenment. His Buddhism is so profound that even the demon king cannot beat him.
After this eminent monk came to Huaguo Mountain, the monks consciously led him.
"I will build a temple for you so that you can practice with peace of mind and comprehend the Dharma."
Sun Wukong made a decision and said, "But I have a request, you must not teach Buddhism to the monsters here, and disrupt the quietness of Huaguo Mountain."
"Amitabha……"
Guanghui clasped her hands together and shook her head and said, "How can we disturb Huaguo Mountain when we teach Buddhism?"
Sun Wukong looked at him without saying a word.
Guanghui noticed that his gaze was getting colder and understood that he had to respond.
"Don't worry about the Monkey King."
Guanghui bowed and said, "I promised it."
“That’s good.”
Sun Wukong immediately ordered the four old monkeys to arrange for the temple to go.
His expression was slower and he said, "Since the monk settled in Huaguo Mountain, he can often come to the Water Curtain Cave in the future to tell me about Buddhism."
Guanghui was delighted and looked up, but saw Ao Luan's face full of anxiety.
"Brother." Ao Luan said loudly: "You can't contact these bald donkeys!"
Sun Wukong glanced at Ao Luan strangely. He had to understand Buddhism in order to defeat Buddhism.
