He didn’t bother with Monkey King kneeling on the ground and first kowtowed to Guanyin Bodhisattva, clasping his hands together and chanting:

“Disciple Tang Xuanzang, paying respects to the Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva!”

“Hmm.” Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded slightly and then said indifferently, “Tang Xuanzang, from now on, this monkey will escort you on your journey to the West.”

“This…”

A hesitation flashed across Tang Xuanzang’s face.

Originally, he didn’t care; having more disciples meant having more hands. However, after the recent incident, he felt that he would eventually die at the hands of the other party.

How could he dare to accept him?

However.

As a disciple of Buddhism, he dared not to defy the words of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

With this in mind.

Tang Xuanzang could only lower his head, sigh deeply in his heart, and then clasp his hands together and say, “I will obey Bodhisattva’s decree and do my best to teach him in the future.”

“Good!”

Seeing this.

Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded with satisfaction and then vanished into thin air.

In this manner.

Monkey King, with ulterior motives, and fearful Tang Xuanzang began their unique journey to the West.

Once out of the range of Two Realms Mountain.

The road became more and more treacherous, full of dense thorny forests and bizarre rocks, as well as countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

All the way.

Tang Xuanzang and Monkey King didn’t say a word and kept moving forward in silence.

The former was always worried that his newly accepted disciple would go mad at some point and accidentally kill him.

As for the latter, he was reluctant.

For him, who had once caused a sensation and even made the Heavenly Court give him the title of Monkey King-

Now.

He had to kowtow to a mere mortal, fearing the retribution of Buddhism and another five hundred years of imprisonment, he would have run away if he could.

As for repaying Tang Xuanzang for saving him?

What a joke-

imprisoning me, Old Sun, for five hundred years and then releasing me, can this also be counted as a favor?

In Monkey King’s view, Tang Xuanzang and Buddhism were in cahoots, and the other party’s act of saving him was just a performance with Buddhism.

This behavior is just like stabbing you with a knife, then healing your knife wound, and asking you to repay it.

Not killing Tang Xuanzang on the spot was just because he was afraid of being punished by Buddhism again; did he really think Old Sun didn’t understand?

Therefore.

That’s why Monkey King directly tried to overturn the Five Finger Mountain, intending to ‘accidentally’ kill Tang Xuanzang, and then escape, return to Flower and Fruit Mountain, and continue to be his carefree Mountain King.

Later, one plan failed and another emerged, trying to get excited and ‘accidentally’ hug Tang Xuanzang to death, but was unfortunately stopped by that annoying Guanyin.

Now.

Monkey King realized.

Escaping or playing tricks will definitely not work. Guanyin will obviously protect Tang Xuanzang in secret all the way.

There is only one way left for him: to escort Tang Xuanzang to the Great Leiyin Temple in Western Heaven with obedience and sincerity, to obtain the true scripture.

Having walked for about an hour.

With a tight mood and stuffy weather in the mountains and forests, Tang Xuanzang was soaked with sweat from head to toe.

Just as he hesitated, wondering whether to suggest to his monkey disciple that they find a place to rest for a while…

Suddenly.

Smoke from a cooking fire caught his attention.

“Oh, there’s a household over there. Apprentice…how about we go rest and ask for some water to drink?”

Tang Xuanzang was overjoyed and immediately said.

Hearing this.

Monkey King shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, “Sure, let’s go rest.”

Following the original plot.

One man and one monkey arrived at the entrance of a courtyard, and Tang Xuanzang knocked on the door.

Boom- boom boom

“Who’s coming? Oh, and how is there a monkey?”

An old man opened the door and was startled when he saw Monkey King behind Tang Xuanzang. He quickly stepped backward.

Though he had seen monkeys before, he had never seen one stand upright like a human.

Seeing this,

Tang Xuanzang hurriedly stepped forward, calming the old man, “Don’t be afraid, old man. This monkey is my disciple.”

“Oh, so he’s the elder’s disciple; he scared this old man to death; I thought I ran into a demon.” The old man patted his chest and then led the two of them inside.

Going into the house,

From behind the room beam, a half-sized little boy with a bun peeked out, secretly observing the guests who had come to his house.

“Child, go and get two bowls of water,” the old man commanded his grandson hiding in the room beam.

Afterward,

He turned his head and said to Tang Xuanzang and Monkey King, “Two elders, please wait a moment. I will cook two vegetarian meals for you.”

“Amitabha, thank you, old man.”

Tang Xuanzang quickly put his hands together, giving his thanks.

At the side,

Monkey King chuckled, highly interested in the little boy fetching water, thinking to himself… this kid, he’s just like his grandfather was as a child.

Speaking of it,

This old man had a connection with Monkey King. Decades ago, when the old man was still a child herding cows, he met Monkey King, who was trapped under a mountain.

It’s said that young children’s hearts are pure, and at that time, the old man wasn’t afraid and picked a few peaches to give to Monkey King, allowing Monkey King, who drank iron juice and copper water every day, to have a good taste.

In a while,

The old man brought over two bowls of vegetarian meals, enthusiastically inviting them, “I only have coarse grains to serve, I hope the two elders won’t mind!”

“Thank you, old man.” Tang Xuanzang thanked him once again.

However,

Monkey King at the side let out a hearty laugh and then teasingly asked, “Old man, do you still remember me, Old Sun?”

Upon hearing this,

The old man was stunned.

Not only did this monkey look like a person, but he could also speak like a human?

But,

Soon… A vague childhood memory surfaced in the old man’s mind, but with age, his thinking was somewhat blurred, and he couldn’t remember it at once.

Just as the old man was lost in his thoughts,

Tang Xuanzang chastised Wukong, “Wukong, don’t be rude. This old man kindly invites us. How can you call him ‘old man’?”

“Hehe, what’s wrong with calling him old man? If we go by seniority, I could be his ancestor!”

Monkey King laughed and then turned his head to remind the old man, “Old man, do you remember when you used to herd cows back then?? ”

With Monkey King’s reminder,

The old man suddenly realized.

He finally remembered, quickly moving forward to examine Monkey King, and then said happily, “It’s the Monkey King… Monkey King, right?”

“Hehe- Monkey King, my surname is Sun!” Monkey King scratched his chest, then pointed at the little boy huddled in the corner, saying:

“This kid is just like you were back then.”

On the side,

Seeing this scene,

Tang Xuanzang was amazed.

He didn’t expect his own cheap disciple to have such a background. Judging from the old man’s age, didn’t that mean… Monkey King had lived for at least a hundred years?

And., the title ‘Monkey King’ was too ostentatious. Heaven, Earth, Sovereign, Parents, and Teachers, this riotous monkey claimed to be equal to heaven, truly rebellious.

At the dining table,

Perhaps it was because of the memories of his childhood,

The old man talked a lot. He talked about his father, when he got married, and finally introduced his grandson.

Surprisingly,

The usually restless Monkey King, while the old man was talking, listened carefully from beginning to end without showing any impatience.

Although the monkey was naughty, he distinguished between love and hate. Dozens of years ago, he had experienced the old man’s kindness through wild peaches, so he had a good impression of the old man and was naturally willing to listen to him.

However,

This originally harmonious atmosphere was soon broken.

First, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps, followed by the voices of a few burly men.

“Hahaha- There’s a household here, let’s go in and borrow some money to spend, and see if there are any young girls.”

“Good brother, you’re right. We’ve been tired from running all the way. Let’s go in and have a look.”

Between their words,

The leading rogue kicked at the door,

Clang-

The door fell, and more than a dozen bandits stormed in like a pack of wolves, their faces full of excitement..
