The Monkey King

At noon, the sun was scorching the earth. In the cool room, Qingyunzi sat upright, seemingly no longer as depressed as before, and asked carefully about his wasted time.

Naxudu kowtowed and handed a list to Qingyunzi with both hands: "Master, this is the medicine Feng Ling picked up at Qilinjiao yesterday."

Qingyunzi took it and glanced sideways at Dantongzi, who was standing in the corridor with his back to him, and then began to look at it carefully.

"Looking at the situation, the monkey's injury is almost healed." He stroked his long beard and sighed, his tone a little more serious, as if he was speaking to Dan Tongzi.

"Okay, so what?" Dan Tongzi snorted coldly, turned his back to Qingyunzi, and said with a hint of disdain in his voice: "Okay, it's best to stay calm. If he still dares to act rashly, I will beat him until he goes back. Lie down for a few months.”

Hearing this, Qingyunzi smiled helplessly: "Senior brother, why are you bothering? After all, we are fellow seniors."

"Who is the same disciple as that wild monkey?" Dan Tongzi replied without looking back.

After that night, the menacing Dan Tongzi fell into trouble, while Qingyunzi, who was originally in a daze, suddenly became enlightened.

Cultivation is a long road, but cultivation of the mind is the first step.

If you are afraid of some things and take them seriously, you will lose.

If we really want to talk about it, whether we are happy, worried, angry, resentful, or hateful on the road to spiritual cultivation, they are all inner demons. To fall deeply into it is to enter a demonic obstacle, which will hinder your practice.

Dantongzi is in this state now. In comparison, Qingyunzi actually feels relieved. In addition to monkeys, there are also factors that lead to Dan Tongzi's deep fall.

Dantongzi fell deeper than Qingyunzi.

Xudu gently took out another piece of paper from his sleeves and presented it with both hands: "Yesterday, Master Ling Yun's new female disciple Yang Chan also came to Qilinjiao to collect medicine. Since she didn't have a waist card, she almost didn't get it. There was a conflict with the guarding Taoist disciples. This is the list of medicines she picked up yesterday."

"Oh?" Qingyunzi reached out to take the medicine list, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but feel confused: "This medicine list is unprecedented. Then Yang Chan previously studied under Yuding Zhenren, and his cultivation has reached the level of refining the gods. When I return to my true state, do I want to make alchemy? Have I reported to the alchemy room?"

"I've never been here before." Xudu replied respectfully.

Dan Tongzi, who was standing aside, clenched his fists and hung them on the fence, saying angrily: "This Yang Chan is not a peaceful person! She was there that night, I just don't want to point it out. Such insidious and cunning people, if it weren't for Ling Yun, Junior brother gave me the letter first, and I took it away a long time ago! I really don’t know what he was doing by taking such a person back, that’s all, why didn’t he put it in his Lingyun Pavilion and give me the Xianyue Sanxing Cave to do it? very!"

These days, Dan Tongzi was tired of being in charge of the internal and external affairs of the Taoist temple. Although it is said that he is extremely slack in his work, the fact that he cannot slack off is enough to make him upset and angry.

Instead of sitting and practicing meditation, he prefers the leisurely life of traveling like he used to do, and taking care of things is not his strong point.

Fortunately, Qingyunzi had recovered a little and stepped in to assist him from time to time. Otherwise, Dantongzi would have fled overnight.

Everything about eating, drinking, sleeping, sleeping, etc. is all related to him, and he also has the responsibility of preaching and teaching. It is really not something ordinary people can do.

Those tedious affairs, trivial things...he wanted to kick some Taoist disciples out of the temple just by looking at them. If he hadn't been entrusted by Subhuti, he would have beaten them several times.

This made Dan Tongzi suddenly admire this fifth junior brother who he had always hated.

The Taoist temple has been operating normally for many years in his hands, and only Qingyunzi himself knows the hard work involved. It's just that most of the second generation disciples living in Taoist temples, except for a few taught by Subhuti himself, have mediocre cultivation and few achievements, and have been criticized a lot.

After being silent for a long time, Qingyunzi said: "Senior brother, I have thought clearly about it these days. Let the master decide on the matter of junior brother Wukong. We don't have to worry about it."

"Hmph! You push it away without thinking about who I am helping!" Dan Tongzi turned around and pointed at Qingyunzi and shouted: "You didn't see the way he looked at me that night! That monkey is wild and untamable, and it will kill the master sooner or later!"

Qingyunzi hesitated for a long time and said calmly: "I think the master must also know this. After all, Sun Wukong is our junior brother, not an apprentice. It is better to let his own master make the decision. The master has not spoken yet. We also..."

Before Qingyunzi finished speaking, Dantongzi shouted directly: "I beat that monkey so much that night, but the master didn't say anything, which means that the master doesn't want to take care of it! If he doesn't care about it, I will take care of it! All the affairs in the temple are now But it's all on my shoulders. If he wants to stay here, he has to follow my rules! If he really wants me to stop, master will speak up, so there is no need for you to meddle."

After saying that, he fluttered his sleeves and flew out of Feiyun Pavilion.

Behind him, Qingyunzi sighed.

There were some things that Dantongzi couldn't explain, so naturally Qingyunzi didn't know either.

These days, Dantongzi kept thinking of the monkey's eyes that night, and she felt a trace of fear out of thin air, as if she felt guilty. So much so that in private Dan Tongzi frequently visited Ling Yanli these days.

Others can't see it, how could Dan Tongzi not see it with his cultivation level?

That night the monkey's cultivation had clearly reached the critical point of concentration, but now it seemed to have retreated. After careful consideration, you already know the reason.

Now, Yang Chan's collection of medicine was not for the purpose of making elixirs. She was simply hooking up with a monkey.

It seems that the next conflict is inevitable.

Just the way Monkey looked at him that night, he had no reason to back down!

"A wild monkey also wants to run wild here!" Dan Tongzi cursed fiercely after returning to his temporary residence.

Scarface, who was standing by, stepped forward angrily and asked: "Master, are you going to tell me that the Taoist disciples at Qilinjiao will no longer let these two people in?"

"No!" Dantongzi gritted his teeth and said: "Let them go inside to collect herbs! Not only that, if there are any herbs or minerals that they want and Qilinjiao doesn't have them, they can find them for me and provide them no matter what! I want them. Look what this monkey can do!"

In the next few days, Yang Chan suddenly felt that the search for materials was much smoother. If there was any material that he couldn't find, he could ask the Taoist disciples guarding Qilin Corner and he would see it in a conspicuous place within a few days.

The Qilinjiao Taoist disciples did not have the same cold attitude as when they first arrived. Sometimes they were even so enthusiastic that Yang Chan was a little surprised.

She also vaguely felt that someone was secretly interfering, but whether it was Subhuti, Dantongzi, Qingyunzi, Yang or someone else, she didn't want to go into details.

For her, as long as she can achieve her goal, she doesn't need to care about other things.

As time went by, and another month later, the monkey gradually recovered. Yang Chan has also prepared the required materials.

The breakthrough is close at hand!
