Chapter 180: Cultivate the monkey into his ideal appearance (Happy New Year’s Eve)
In fact, Lin Yuan did not have any distracted intentions at all.
For a innate god like him.
Born is the soul of the mind that is extremely pure.
All changes in the heart are the original heart.
There will never be any disturbances of the inner demon.
The so-called distracted mind and the breeding of inner demons are just things that only after the acquired spirit practices step by step.
But what is Lin Yuan’s problem?
It's actually him.
On the one hand, he developed a kind heart, but he didn't want to be too concerned about the common people, and finally became a fair and just thing like heaven.
On the one hand, as a human being, he did not want to completely fiddle with human desires.
In fact, Lin Yuan felt that he had reached a relatively good balance now.
At least compared to the past, he is definitely much calmer.
There will no longer be a world like the treasure lotus lamp, and you will feel that you have unparalleled strength, so you can only shake the rules of heaven and earth by hand.
But Lin Yuan felt that it was not perfect enough.
He always felt that his state of mind still needed to be tempered.
Organize it, through some other ways, establish your true heart.
And now.
He had some thoughts in his mind.
Just just right.
In the mountains of flowers and fruits.
The Monkey King seemed to be a little tired of the simple and ordinary play in the mountains.
The most important thing is that he has seen many birth, old age, sickness and death among monkeys around him.
At the beginning, the Monkey King was a little angry. Why did anger die? Then he slowly accepted it.
Accept this natural law.
But as time goes by, he began to panic.
Will you come to me if you panic and die one day?
Although under the method taught by that immortal, he swallowed the essence of the sun and the moon day and night, his body became stronger day by day, and his vitality was as strong as a monster.
He doesn't know much magic, but his body is so powerful that it's terrifying after hundreds of years of strengthening.
The demon king near Huaguo Mountain has been subdued by him with a pair of iron fists over the years.
But he did not kill.
He was ready to kill at first.
But when a monster hits it and blood splashes.
The bloody smell made his impure body subconsciously disgusted.
He then recalled the words of the immortal.
He is the foundation of the innate nature and cannot be tainted by acquired things.
The monkey king is talented and spontaneously thought:
"If I kill, will I get infected with any disasters and resentment? If I am entangled by them, will my body also want it. Being polluted? "
"When the immortal saw me, he would still scold me?" Although he had not practiced any advanced skills.
There is no expert guidance, it depends on your own exploration.
But being able to find such a truth is enough to prove his talent.
Anyway.
The Monkey King spontaneously realized the way of benevolence and righteousness, and conquered people with virtue--If there is a monster who causes trouble, he will beat him hard when he catches him. If he is disobedient, he will wait for him to recover. Keep fighting.
Fight until he is willing to be obedient and follow the rules set by him, the Monkey King.
In this way, around Huaguo Mountain.
For a moment, it was also stable and orderly, and there were no monsters that would cause trouble.
The Monkey King also taught his own method of breathing the essence of the sun and the moon and flying without hesitation.
But for hundreds of years.
Only a very small number of monsters can successfully practice and gain something.
Most of them are only slightly spiritual in such an environment.
This day.
The Monkey King came to his birthplace and looked at the sea in the distance.
He thought a lot, thinking about the ignorance he had when he was born, and the majesty he had been around the Huaguo Mountain for hundreds of years.
I thought of those monkeys and grandchildren who have been changing for several generations.
Finally, I thought of that immortal.
And maybe it was an illusion.
He actually saw a golden sky light flashing in the distance.
The sky light fell on the void before him.
The immortal actually appeared.
The Monkey King widened his eyes, rubbed his eyes again, and looked at the heavenly being disbelief.
"Immortal?!"
The Monkey King murmured.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, "You haven't seen the monkey for hundreds of years, but you can still maintain your impure body. I really listened to my words."
< br>
When the Monkey King heard this, he had an idea and said, "So." "Is everything before that a test for me by an immortal?" "Now the immortal is an immortal now." Want to formally accept me as your disciple and teach me the true way of immortality? ! ”
His eyes were filled with expectations.
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "You are a monkey, but you will climb up the pole. When did I say that it was a test for you, and you would teach you the true way of immortality? "
The Monkey King laughed and said, "If not, why did the immortals teach me the way I didn't get close to the acquired turbid things? Come to see me again hundreds of years later?"
Lin Yuan said:
"Hahaha, money, money, I know your mood, but if you want to obtain the true way of immortality from me, you still need to survive the last disaster."
The Monkey King was immediately overjoyed: "But follow the instructions of the immortal!" Lin Yuan pointed to the sea:
"From this way, cross the boat, if you can get by luck, go to Xiniu Hezhou , go to a place called Lingtai Fangcunshan, where you will get what you want. ”
The Monkey King was stunned: "Go ashore? Have you forgotten that you taught me how to fly. Now I can be said to be more capable than those birds!" Lin Yuan Shaking his head, he said, "You must not use flying methods, you can only cross the sea. If you can pass through such a sea of suffering, you will be halfway through the disaster." "If you rely on flying, you will be able to fly. If you take tricks, then immortality will have no fate with you."
The Monkey King scratched his head: "Immortal, I don't understand, why do you have to do this? Wouldn't you just teach me the magic of immortality?" Lin Yuan said:
< br>"The so-called Tao cannot be passed on lightly. Although you are quite talented, if you want to inherit my way, you have to prove your determination to me."
"If you don't have this determination, how can I pass on it easily Your advanced method? ”
The Monkey King nodded in enlightenment: "Immortal, I understand." Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Then go, mom, you The future is destined to be lofty, and this corner of the world cannot tolerate you."
After hearing this, the Monkey King felt an inexplicable sense of pride in his heart.
He remembered the majestic figure he saw in a trance wearing a golden chain mail, holding a golden cudgel, and holding a majestic one.
He couldn't see the figure clearly at the beginning.
But today, the fog of memory seems to suddenly dissipate a little.
He saw that figure.
It was clearly himself!
That's his future?
The Monkey King was excited and quickly wanted to worship the immortal, but when he looked up, he found that there was no immortal in front of him?
Only a wisp of breeze blew.
The sky is clear and white clouds.
Everything before seemed like a dream.
Lin Yuan stayed in the dark for a while, then took a step forward and came to Xiniu Hezhou.
Actually, at the beginning he didn't want to interfere too much in Shihou's affairs.
It is because if you always maintain a pure body for the stone monkey, and then practice it thoroughly stimulates the innate magical powers of the Lingming Stone Monkey.
What level can you reach?
Out of such curiosity, he intervened a little at the beginning.
At that time.
Lin Yuan didn't care whether Shihou would still go to see Master Bodhi in the end.
But now.
He wants to completely intervene and arrange the stone monkey well.
This is for verification.
What to verify?
Verify a new immortal system created by him that combines the immortal system in this world.
The system of immortality that focuses on the heart.
Verify some.
Other stuff.
For example, human nature and divinity.
Are they really two personalities?
Or
It's just that Lin Yuan himself is a little schizophrenia.
Yes.
Hundreds of years have passed, Lin Yuan has begun to examine the so-called balance between humanity and divinity that he has always pursued. He actually felt.
I have achieved this balance long ago.
Even.
In fact, there is no so-called human nature or divinity at all.
From the beginning.
It's only his own nature.
Everything is like the meaningless entanglement caused by excessive changes in his heart.
In order to verify these conjectures.
He then had a plan.
The fundamental reason for the plan is that Lin Yuan wants to cultivate the stone monkey into a very ideal appearance.
No doubt.
The stone monkey has a kind of freedom and unruly nature.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
If he is allowed to accept the influence of God's pity for the world.
Will his nature overpower divinity, or will his nature distort his nature.
Or.
The stone monkey found a balance directly in it?
Lin Yuan needs to be from others.
The answer that truly discovers hidden in your heart.
Although this arrangement of the stone monkey may be an inducing deception.
But compared to the original trajectory of the stone monkey.
Lin Yuan consciously gave him more opportunities, and this will be the case now and in the future.
So.
It's not just an inducible deception.
It is better to say it is targeted cultivation.
Lin Yuan wants Shihou to become an ideal Monkey King who has the personality of fighting against the sky and the earth, and has a compassionate heart!
So
Lin Yuan looked at a good Taoist in Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai:
"Bodhi. I can only apologize to you first"
The Monkey King was full of excitement, turned around and rushed towards the depths of Huaguo Mountain with great strides.
The monkeys that were playing with him on weekdays were gathering together, combing their hair and basking in the warm sun. "Boys!"
The Monkey King shouted, and his voice echoed in the valley.
An old monkey staggered forward and asked with concern:
"King, what's wrong with you? Look at your expression, it seems that something is important."
The Monkey King took a deep breath, his eyes slowly swept across each monkey, and said in a deep voice:
< br>"Boys, I'm leaving."
As soon as this said, the monkey group exploded.
The monkeys chirped, expressing their confusion.
"King, where are you going?"
A little monkey asked timidly.
The Monkey King looked into the distance, his eyes flashed with a firm light:
"I want to go to Xiniu Hezhou to find the true way of immortality. Only in this way can I protect the flowers forever Guoshan, protect you."
After hearing this, the monkeys were reluctant, but they also knew that this was a major event related to the future of the King and Huaguoshan.
The old monkey sighed and said, "King, you must be more careful along the way when you go high and far. We will guard Huaguo Mountain and hope you will return soon."
Beautiful The Monkey King nodded and said no more.
He came to the beach, found vines and thick tree trunks, and with his strong body, he quickly woven a simple wooden boat.
He pushed the wooden boat into the sea and looked back at Huaguo Mountain. The familiar forests, streams, and the cute group of monkeys all turned into reluctance to leave.
"Boys, wait for me to come back!"
The Monkey King shouted, jumped onto the wooden boat, holding a branch as an oar, and rowed towards the west with all his might.
When I first went out to sea, the sea surface was quite calm, with a gentle breeze blowing, and occasionally a few seabirds flew overhead.
The Monkey King hummed a small song, full of longing for the future.
But not long after, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and the originally calm sea surface brought huge waves, one after another, slapped the wooden boat hard.
The Monkey King held the oar tightly, and his body shook violently with the wooden boat.
The sea water kept pouring into the boat. While he was rowing hard, he tried to maintain balance, and he also had to scoop out the sea water with his hands.
The strong wind whistled, making him unable to open his eyes, but he only had one belief in his heart: he must arrive at Xiniu Hezhou.
I don't know how long it took, the storm gradually subsided, and the Monkey King collapsed in the boat exhausted, soaking his hands and feet.
But he did not dare to slack off at all. After a short rest, he continued to paddle forward.
Fortunately, he was able to swallow the essence of the sun and moon to replenish his energy and replace food, otherwise this would be another huge trouble.
Once, the wooden boat was swept into a whirlpool by undercurrents and was about to be swallowed. The Monkey King tried his best and kept waving the oars made of branches before he broke out in a thrilling manner.
In this way, after countless difficulties and obstacles, the Monkey King finally saw the distant land.
He was so excited that he burst into tears. He used his strength to row the oars and approached the shore.
When the wooden boat finally touched the beach in Xiniu Hezhou, the Monkey King breathed a sigh of relief and he succeeded!
He stood up with difficulty, dragged his tired body and stepped onto the land.
He was filled with excitement and expectation.
Looking up, I saw a strange scene in front of me: there was a village with smoke curling from a distance, and dense woods and winding paths nearby.
He shook the water droplets on his body, took a step, and walked towards the village.
However, when he approached the village, the villagers were panicked when they saw him.
They had never seen a "person" like this - all over the body, with a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek. Although they were human, they were clearly a monster.
The villagers screamed and ran away, and some even picked up hoes and wooden sticks and stared at him vigilantly.
"Monster! The monster is coming!"
"Run! Don't let him get close!"
The Monkey King was stunned. He never thought he would Being treated like this.
He waved his hand quickly and tried to explain: "I'm not a monster! I'm here to seek immortals and visit Taoism!" But the villagers were reluctant to listen, and they hid in the house and closed the doors and windows. He was left alone at the entrance of the village, at a loss.
The Monkey King felt a little disappointed, but he was not discouraged.
He thought about it and decided to find a place to rest first, and then slowly find a way to integrate into human society.
He found a cave and settled temporarily. In the following days, he observed human life near the village during the day, and returned to the cave to practice the method of breathing at night.
Gradually, the Monkey King discovered that although humans were full of vigilance towards him, they also had many interesting things.
They farmed the fields, weaved cloth, sewed clothes, and traded, and lived in an orderly manner.
The Monkey King was envious and decided to try to imitate their behavior.
He first secretly observed the villagers' clothes, and then weaved them into simple clothes with leaves and vines to cover the golden retrievers on his body.
Then, he followed the human form and walked upright, trying to make his behavior look more elegant.
Although his appearance is still a bit weird, at least it is no longer as scary as it was at first.
One day, the Monkey King mustered up the courage to enter the village again.
This time, although the villagers were still a little wary of him, they did not run around like before.
He walked up to an old man selling fruits, learned human etiquette, and bowed and said, "Brother-in-law, how do you sell these fruits?"
The old man saw that he was respectful and his words were polite. , let go of the alert in my heart.
He looked at the Monkey King and smiled and said, "You monkey, are strange. These fruits cost one penny, do you want to buy them?"
The Monkey King touched his head. , said a little embarrassedly:
"I...I don't have money. But I can help you work and exchange some fruits, okay?"
The old man saw that he was sincere, and nodded:
"Okay, If you help me carry water, I will give you a few fruits."
The Monkey King was overjoyed and quickly agreed.
He was very strong and his hands and feet were quick, and he picked up the water tank in a short while. Seeing that he was diligent, the old man not only gave him fruit, but also invited him to a meal
The Monkey King was very grateful, but declined.
After all, he doesn't have to eat at all, nor can he eat these things.
He just used this to get to know humans more familiar with them.
He talked a lot with the old man and gradually mastered human language and etiquette.
Since then, the Monkey King often came to the village to help with his work, and the villagers slowly accepted him.
They found that although this monkey looks strange, he is kind-hearted, diligent in doing things, and knows how to be grateful.
Gradually, the Monkey King made many friends, and the villagers no longer regarded him as a monster, but affectionately called him "Brother Monkey".
One day, while chatting with the villagers, the Monkey King mentioned the purpose of his trip.
He asked: "Have you ever heard of Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai? I heard that there is an immortal there who can teach the way of immortality."
After hearing this, a well-informed businessman said with a smile: "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain? That is the fairy mountain in Xiniu Hezhou! I heard that there is a true immortal living on the mountain with endless magic power, and many people have Go and ask for the immortals. However, the mountains are high and the road is far, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach."
The Monkey King was overjoyed when he heard this and asked quickly:
"Where is the square mountain of Lingtai, he is in the middle of the mountain. ? How should I go? ”
The merchant pointed to the West and said:
"From here, cross three mountains, cross a river, and then pass through a foggy forest, you can see Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. However, there are many obstacles along the way, so you must be careful."
The Monkey King bowed to thank the merchant and had already made some conspiracy in his mind.
He said goodbye to the villagers, took some simple salutes, and embarked on a journey to Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai.
Along the way, the Monkey King crossed mountains and ridges, crossed rivers and forests, and went through thousands of hardships.
But he always had firm belief in his heart, thinking about the words of the immortal, thinking about his future appearance.
Finally, after passing through a foggy forest, he saw the towering fairy mountain in the distance.
The mountain top is covered with clouds and mist, and it is quite fairy-like, and it looks like it is not an ordinary place.
The Monkey King was very excited and murmured: "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain...I finally arrived!"
He took a deep breath and took a step. Walk towards the top of the mountain.
