Chapter 750: Lotus Lantern + Journey to the West - Tang Monk's Flesh 10

"Stop!" If Guanyin had not arrived in time, Tang Sanzang would probably have been reincarnated again.

Guanyin originally came to enlighten Little White Dragon and to confirm that Sun Wukong was wearing the golden hoop and was under the golden hoop curse, but she didn't expect that Tang Sanzang was so bad at doing his job that he would be discovered by Sun Wukong.

"You naughty monkey, Tang Sanzang is your master, and you actually want to kill him! You are really wild and unruly, and you don't obey discipline!" After saying that, Guanyin cast a spell to pick up the tight hoop on the ground and put it on Sun Wukong's head. "It seems that only by asking you to wear this tight hoop and restrain you with the tight hoop spell can I teach you well."

"I'm so pissed off!" Sun Wukong was so angry at Guanyin's forced sales and blaming others that he was shaking all over. He kept dodging the tight hoop, but Sun Wukong's strength had not recovered yet and he was no match for Guanyin. Helplessly, Sun Wukong flew away.

He accidentally flew over the Yellow Wind Ridge and was spotted by Ruyi, who called out twice, "Great Sage, Great Sage!"

Hearing Ruyi's voice, Sun Wukong fell to the ground and saw that the person who called him was a strange little goblin. He asked curiously, "Why did you change your appearance again?"

"Oh, don't worry about it. It will be useful for me to become like this."

"But Great Sage, shouldn't you be accompanying Tang Sanzang on a journey to the West? Why are you suddenly flying in the sky?" Could something have happened? Ruyi didn't want any major changes to this part of the plot, otherwise her plan would be in vain?

"Hmph, what's the point of going on a journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures? I, Sun Wukong, am done with this!" Sun Wukong told Ruyi everything that had happened before. Ruyi raised her eyebrows and was a little surprised that Sun Wukong didn't wear the golden hoop this time. It seemed that it would not be as easy for Buddhism to subdue him as in the plot.

Ruyi did not persuade Sun Wukong to go back, because she knew clearly that the current situation was not to the point where Tathagata Buddha and others could not tolerate it and wanted to change the monkey. There would be others who would persuade Sun Wukong to go back without her persuading them. But not persuading did not mean that there could be no spoilers.

So Ruyi secretly told Sun Wukong about the disasters arranged by the second and third disciples Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, as well as some Bodhisattvas, immortal mounts, etc., and said, "Hey, Great Sage, this journey to the West is actually a show by a group of people, why do you take it so seriously?"

"It's no use running away with the Buddhist karma on your shoulders, so just pretend to be honest and finish the show with these people. Anyway, people in this world are either actors or spectators, you can't escape no matter where you hide." He has to go back sooner or later, but Ruyi doesn't want to meet a hardworking worker named Sun Wukong.

"So, girl, which type are you? An actor or a spectator?" It was the first time that Sun Wukong heard such a statement. Although he felt that it was a bit wrong, he thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense. The depression in his heart immediately dissipated a lot, and the anger on his face also dissipated. He was just a little curious about what type of person this mysterious Ruyi was.

"Me?" Ruyi pointed at herself, thought for a moment and replied, "I am neither. I am just someone who wants to take advantage of the situation and make a profit."

"Profit?" When Sun Wukong heard Ruyi say that the journey to the West could be profitable, his eyes lit up and he came over, "Sister, why don't you tell me in detail."

In the original "Journey to the West", since Sun Wukong was able to deliberately take away some monsters' magic treasures and refuse to return them, he was certainly not a naive person who was out of touch with the world. Now that he heard that there was a way to make a profit, he immediately became interested.

Ruyi was also very clear. Not only did he tell Sun Wukong about merits and causes and effects, he also listed the monsters and places with treasures that he might encounter on the journey to obtain the scriptures.

"There are some things that are inconvenient for you, Great Sage, to take, but it's different for me. As long as we work together secretly, no one will find out that I took those things away."

"Is this the reason why you have been secretly transforming into other people to interact with me?" Sun Wukong was not stupid. He immediately explained the reason why Ruyi had not revealed her friendship with him.

“Hehe…” Ruyi played dumb.

"Hmm..." Sun Wukong pondered for a while, then nodded and agreed, "I believe in your character, so I agree to this!"

Sun Wukong remembered all the elixirs and peaches that Ruyi had given him over the years, and how he had taken care of the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain. He was willing to believe that Ruyi would not lie to him.

With the "insider", Ruyi felt completely at ease. Not long after, Sun Wukong was persuaded to go back by the golden boy and jade girl beside Guanyin. When he met Tang Sanzang and the white dragon horse who had been enlightened by Guanyin, both sides pretended that the incident of the tight hoop had not happened, and set out on the journey of obtaining scriptures again in peace.

"Alas..." Guanyin held the tight hoop that had not been 'given away' in her hand, sighed and shook her head, "After suppressing him for five hundred years, this Sun Wukong is still not obedient..." Guanyin's eyes were very strange, seemingly compassionate, but always made people scared.

After returning to the team, Sun Wukong became much calmer for some reason. He led the way quietly all day long and would not interfere unless Tang Sanzang spoke. No matter whether the Guanyin Temple was burned down or the precious cassock was stolen, he just wanted Tang Sanzang to stay alive.

Even when Tang Sanzang asked Sun Wukong for help to retrieve his treasured cassock, he calmly advised Tang Sanzang: "Money and treasures are external things. A monk should not be attached to them." Tang Sanzang was left speechless.

Not only did he lose his precious cassock, but his other belongings were also burned up in a fire at the Guanyin Temple. The glamorous and handsome monk Tang Sanzang who had arrived at Gao Village this time appeared in front of Zhu Bajie as a thin and ascetic monk.

So this time, even though Guanyin still left behind the words of waiting, Zhu Bajie was unwilling to follow Tang Sanzang on the journey to the West. Sun Wukong had already learned of Zhu Bajie's identity from Ruyi, and after understanding his life in Gao Laozhuang, he did not force him to go with them. Seeing that the second disciple prepared for Tang Sanzang was about to be lost, it was Guanyin who finally came over and performed some chanting and fighting to persuade Zhu Bajie to leave Gao Laozhuang.

After leaving Gao Laozhuang, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and a white dragon horse quickly walked to Huangfeng Ridge. On Huangfeng Ridge, a strange wind blew and Tang Sanzang was immediately captured by the monster. Ruyi had been waiting in the Huangfeng Cave for a long time. When he saw the Huangfeng monster bringing Tang Sanzang back, he immediately greeted him attentively, "My king, congratulations on capturing Tang Sanzang."

"Yes. Take him down and wash him clean. I want to eat Tang Monk's flesh!"

"Yes, my king, I will go right away!" Ruyi excitedly took Tang Sanzang away from the Yellow Wind Monster. Seeing that he kept shouting, "Wukong, save me!" Ruyi, who was annoyed by the noise, put away his sword and knocked him down, and began to absorb the merits. Soon, the originally plump Tang Sanzang was sucked into a skinny appearance by Ruyi.

“You can’t suck anymore!” Fearing that the person might be sucked to death, Ruyi had to stop. He then ordered the other little monsters to take the person away and wash him clean.
