Chapter 46: The Wise King(1/2)
"My brother..."
In the Water Curtain Cave, Zhenyuan Daxian sighed long: "The Golden Cicada Elder, I'm really lost this time."
Sun Wukong glanced at him.
"Daxian, did you deliberately not look for him?"
He didn't understand why Zhenyuan Daxian didn't like Jin Chanzi, but Jin Chanzi was now on the way to leave Huaguo Mountain.
"My brother, I didn't let him get lost."
Zhenyuan Daxian smiled and said, "Elder Jinchan rarely goes to the world once. He can't stay in Huaguo Mountain forever. He should go to the world for a walk."
Sun Wukong thought that this was right. He would go to the Dragon Palace and Aolai Kingdom. Jin Chanzi had not left Huaguo Mountain for three years and was even more homeless than him.
Jin Chanzi's incarnation was bound by him, but after all, he was a great disciple of Buddha, so there would be no problem when he walked around the world.
Sun Wukong didn't care anymore.
He continued to entertain Liu Heng.
At night, Zhenyuan Daxian, who had no Jin Chanzi, felt his ears clear, and hurriedly pulled Sun Wukong to talk about the great way.
"You come together, too."
When Sun Wukong saw Liu Heng's curious look on his face, he invited him to come with him.
Zhenyuan Daxian didn't like mortals to interfere with their preaching, but today he was in a good mood, so he didn't say anything.
The three of them sat on the ground on the top of the mountain. Liu Heng listened to the two immortals beside him talking about the great way, which was like a dream.
Of course he didn't understand what they were saying, but Sun Wukong would occasionally turn around and point out a few tips on the path of practice. Liu Heng suddenly realized it and quickly remembered it in his heart.
"The immortals are so uncomfortable when discussing Taoism. I really want to come here to seek Taoism!"
Liu Heng thought to himself.
Zhenyuan Daxian seemed to hear his heart and suddenly laughed: "You can't ask for immortals."
Liu Heng couldn't help but: "Monkey King, can I learn the Tao from you?"
Sun Wukong shook his head: "No, you are plagued by ordinary things and it is extremely difficult to get out of it."
He looked up at the night sky, and Liu Heng followed his gaze, and a ray of starlight gradually faded over the bright night sky.
Liu Heng's heart seemed to tremble slightly.
Sun Wukong shook his head: "I'll make tea."
He learned Jin Chanzi's technique and brewed a pot of tea for the two of them and poured it into a tea cup.
Liu Heng was flattered and picked up the teacup and sipped it lightly. However, the tea was not hot at all. Instead, his whole body was cool and his sleepiness disappeared.
"How?" Sun Wukong said with a smile: "I'm making this tea well, right?"
Liu Heng reacted and thanked him quickly.
"Thank you Monkey King Fairy Tea."
Sun Wukong smiled slightly, his figure was like a dream.
Liu Heng secretly admired him and thought to himself that even a real immortal had a temperament that would definitely not be as good as the Monkey King in front of him.
"It's a pity that I'm not a monster from Huaguo Mountain." Liu Heng regretted: "Otherwise, I'll definitely be able to learn Taoism here."
"Monsters are no different from humans."
Sun Wukong saw through his thoughts and said, "Humans can also practice Taoism, but you have more important things to do."
He continued to laugh and said, "I actually envy humans. You have something that monsters don't have."
"What?"
Liu Heng quickly asked.
Sun Wukong answered two words: "Time."
"time?"
Liu Heng looked puzzled.
Zhenyuan Daxian frowned and showed a thoughtful expression.
The same time has different meanings for different races.
Sun Wukong told Liu Heng that humans have a short lifespan, so they value time more and have extremely strong action.
Before Huaguo Mountain, almost all the technologies in this world were invented by humans.
"Don't underestimate humans."
Sun Wukong said.
He respected humanity, but this small race could be industrialized in just a few hundred years in the records of the Book of Heaven.
In Huaguo Mountain, despite Sun Wukong's urging, the monsters' growth was still a little slower.
The difference is actually the difference in the concept of time.
Monsters do not value every minute and every second as much as humans.
Liu Heng was surprised. He never expected that someone in this world would attach so much importance to humans.
Even the immortals and Buddhas in that heaven always looked down at them with high eyes.
"If he were the king of humans, he would be able to treat our human race well."
Liu Heng couldn't help thinking so.
With a moment of thought, seeds were planted and cause and effect were born.
The next day, Liu Heng bid farewell to Sun Wukong.
"etc."
Before leaving, Sun Wukong called a boy.
"You go out with the prince to have a look."
He said to the boy.
The young man nodded and turned to salute Liu Heng: "I would like to ask the prince for advice."
"No need to tribute."
Liu Heng quickly helped the boy up.
He then looked at Sun Wukong, full of confusion.
"This child was the one who sent the "Hundred Herbs" to the beginning."
Sun Wukong said.
When Liu Heng heard Sun Wukong talk about the origin of "The Hundred Grass Sutra", he looked at the young man with admiration.
"In recent years, he has helped me compile the "Hundred Herbs and Chronicles" and has also learned a lot of knowledge."
Sun Wukong continued: "He has not yet had a relationship. Take him back and arrange a job for him to increase his knowledge. If he stays for a long time in the future, he will naturally come back."
"no problem."
Liu Heng agreed immediately.
He bid farewell to the Monkey King repeatedly and took the boy out of Huaguo Mountain.
Seeing the island of Huaguo Mountain gradually fading away, Liu Heng on the boat couldn't help but sigh.
"When I handed over the "Hundred Herbs" to Empress Lü, I took my mother to Huaguo Mountain to celebrate her old age."
Liu Heng thought so in his heart, but his desire for Tao has not yet been extinguished.
When he comes to Huaguo Mountain to practice Taoism, his life will definitely be very happy.
Liu Heng couldn't wait to finish his work, but his return was not smooth. After half a year, he was able to return to Jamba Continent.
An official has been waiting for a long time.
"Prince."
The official saluted: "Empress Dowager Lu is gone."
"What?"
Liu Heng didn't react for a moment.
After reacting, his face turned pale immediately.
"Who is in charge now?"
Once Empress Dowager Lu passed away, wouldn’t the Lu family lose their reins and insist on turmoil?
"Don't panic, your prince."
The official continued: "Zhu Lu was in a rebellion and was killed by the Grand Marshal Zhou Bo, Prime Minister Chen Ping, and Zhu Xu Hou Liu Zhang."
