Chapter 208: Wukong accepts a disciple

Wukong and Xuanzang traveled westward.

We passed Liangjie Mountain and arrived at Yingchoujian.

A white dragon suddenly appeared and intended to devour Xuanzang’s horse, but Wukong was standing by, so how could he just let it do that?
With one stick.

The white dragon was subdued and fainted.

He didn’t kill her either.

Because he remembered that when his master first taught him the method of cultivation, the first realm, the Yi Ma realm, seemed to have mentioned Yingchoujian.

And that illusion.

He transformed into a white dragon.

Not long after, Bailong slowly woke up.

It slowly opened its eyes and felt sore all over. Standing in front of it was the majestic Sun Wukong and the compassionate Xuanzang.

Bai Long was shocked and tried to struggle to get up, but found that he was too weak to stand. He could only lie on the ground obediently, his eyes full of fear and vigilance.

Wukong crossed his arms, leaned down slightly, stared at Bailong with a sharp gaze, and asked:
“You evil beast, are you the Third Prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace? Why are you committing evil here and trying to eat our horses?”

When Bai Long heard what Wukong said, his body trembled slightly, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he still pretended to be calm and said:

“Yes, I am the Third Prince of the Dragon Palace in the West Sea. Because I violated the Heavenly Law, the Jade Emperor banished me to this Eagle Sorrow Gorge, where I have suffered endless suffering.

I was so hungry today that I wanted to eat the horse to satisfy my hunger. I hope the immortal will spare my life!”

After hearing what Bai Long said, Wukong frowned slightly and thought to himself:

This white dragon is indeed the third prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Thinking of this, Wukong grinned and said:

“I’ll give you a chance. If you’re willing to follow us and escort us to Lingshan, I’ll spare you this time.

If you can make meritorious deeds and atone for your sins in the future, you may be able to return to heaven and avoid these days of suffering.”

Bai Long heard what Wukong said, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he soon showed a look of hesitation and said:
“My Lord, I am willing to follow you, but how can I help you in my current state? Moreover, this journey to obtain the scriptures will surely be full of dangers. How can I protect you?”

Wukong laughed, patted Bailong on the head and said:
“Don’t worry. I, Old Sun, have my own way of making you play a role. You just need to follow our instructions and escort us forward.”

Xuanzang also nodded slightly, put his hands together, and said softly:
“Donor, the journey to Lingshan is dangerous, but as long as you sincerely repent and do good, you will be redeemed in the process.”

Bai Long listened to what Wukong and Xuanzang said, thought about it secretly, finally gritted his teeth, nodded, and said:
“Okay, I’m willing to follow you and escort you to Lingshan.”

Wukong nodded with satisfaction and said:

“Okay! Since you have agreed, then get up. From today on, you will be a member of our team. We will continue on our journey, so don’t delay the trip any further.”

After saying that, Wukong turned and walked to Xuanzang, who also smiled at Bailong and motioned him to follow.

Bailong slowly stood up and followed Wukong and Xuanzang.

The group continued to move forward. As they walked, Wukong glanced at the white dragon beside him. Seeing that its steps were unsteady and its breath was unstable, he could not help but frowned and said:
“Bai Long, you are too weak. In your current state, I’m afraid you can’t even deal with some small monsters, so how can you escort us to Lingshan?

Why don’t you take me as your master? I will teach you some skills that will be useful to you on your journey to obtain the scriptures.”

After hearing what Wukong said, Bailong was slightly startled, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that Bai Long was hesitant, Wukong grinned, revealing his two sharp fangs, and said:

“Why are you still hesitating? I am willing to accept you as my disciple. That is your blessing. Haven’t you heard of my name, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven?!
If you can learn the skills well, you can return to the Dragon Palace in the future and be proud of yourself, right?”

After hearing what Wukong said, Bailong pondered in his heart.

The name of the Monkey King is indeed well-known. He is a powerful man who rules over an entire continent.

Finally, he gritted his teeth, knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times respectfully, and said:

“Master, please accept my respect! From now on, I will obey your teachings, study hard, and escort you and Master Xuanzang to Lingshan.”

Wukong nodded with satisfaction, laughed, and said:

“Okay! Get up. From today on, you are my apprentice. I will teach you skills and make sure you will never be bullied again.”

Then, Wukong turned to look at Xuanzang and said:
“Xuanzang, although you are the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, your mortal body has many inconveniences after all.

There are many monsters and demons along the way, and it is difficult for me, Old Sun, to be on my own. Why don’t you practice with me so that you can enhance your ability to protect yourself. “

After hearing what Wukong said, Xuanzang was slightly stunned and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

He clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and said:
“Donor Wukong, I understand your good intentions. But I am devoted to Buddhism and only wish to study Buddhism. I don’t have too many thoughts about cultivation.

Moreover, I believe that as long as we have good intentions, the Buddha will protect us and allow us to reach Lingshan safely.”

After hearing Xuanzang’s words, Wukong frowned slightly, scratched his head, and said:
“I am doing this for your own good. There are many dangers along the way. If you don’t improve your strength, how can I explain to the Buddha if something unexpected happens?”

Xuanzang smiled slightly, his eyes firm, and said:
“Donor Wukong, I have made up my mind. I believe that this journey to obtain the scriptures is a test for me, as well as a practice for me.

I am willing to use this mortal body to endure the hardships along the way, so as to understand the true meaning of Buddhism. “

Seeing Xuanzang’s firm attitude, Wukong stopped forcing him to do so. He sighed helplessly and said:
“Forget it, since you have made up your mind, I will not force you. But you must remember that if you encounter danger, you must call me in time, and I will definitely protect you.”

Xuanzang nodded slightly and said:
“Thank you, Master Wukong. I will be careful.”

After that, the three of them continued on their journey to Lingshan.

Keep going.

To Guanyin Temple.

Because Xuanzang did not have any colorful robes, they slept in the Guanyin Temple for one night and then left.

Continue on your way.

Not long after they walked, they heard that there was a black bear demon nearby, occupying a hilltop.

This black bear demon didn’t do anything harmful on a daily basis, but he would occasionally steal things from the temple.

Wukong had an idea and decided to meet the black bear demon.

After accepting Bailong as his disciple.

He felt the pleasure of being a master.

I also thought about what it would be like if I had disciples all over the world.

Let them all inherit their will.

Then wouldn’t it be easier to realize my wish of achieving harmony between humans and transsexuals?

So he thought.

Since this black bear demon has never hurt anyone, perhaps he can be accepted as a disciple!
He asked Xuanzang and Bailong to wait where they were, and he flew to the black bear demon’s cave with a somersault cloud.

“Hey! Black bear demon, come out quickly!”

Wukong shouted loudly. After a while, the black bear demon came out of the cave. It was huge, with black fur all over its body, and a majestic look in its eyes.

“Who are you? Why are you making trouble in my territory?”

The black bear demon looked at Wukong warily.

“I am the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong. I heard that you are devoted to Buddhism, but you are the king of this mountain. What’s the reason?”

Wukong crossed his arms and stared at the black bear demon with sharp eyes.

The Black Bear Demon was slightly startled after hearing what Wukong said, and then said:

“Although I occupy this mountain, I have never killed anyone. I am devoted to Buddhism, but it is difficult to find a good place to practice Buddhism in this world, so I will stay here for the time being.”

After hearing what the Black Bear Demon said, Wukong nodded slightly and thought to himself: This Black Bear Demon is quite interesting. Since he is devoted to Buddhism, it would be a good thing if he could join the team to obtain the scriptures.

“I’ll give you a chance. If you’re willing to follow us and escort us to Lingshan, I’ll forgive you for occupying the mountain. Once you get to Lingshan, you’ll get what you want and practice with all your heart.”

Goku said.

After hearing what Wukong said, the Black Bear Demon showed obvious hesitation on his face.

It lives freely and happily in the mountains. Although it has not yet achieved enlightenment, it has no one to control it and lives a very comfortable life.

Now it has to follow a group of people to the distant and unknown sacred mountain. It doesn’t know how many difficulties and obstacles it will encounter along the way, which really makes it worried.

“My Lord, I have been cultivating here for a long time and have long been accustomed to life in the mountains. Not to mention that the journey to obtain the scriptures is long, arduous, and full of dangers, even if I reach the sacred mountain, who can guarantee that I will be able to achieve what I wish for and achieve the right result?
I think I’d better forget it. I’d rather continue to practice in this mountain, where I can be at peace and at ease.”

The black bear demon said with his arms folded.

When Wukong saw the black bear demon refused, he grinned, revealing his two sharp fangs, and said:

“You bastard, do you know how many practitioners dream of such an opportunity? If you miss it, don’t regret it!”

The black bear demon remained unmoved.

Wukong said again:

“You black bear demon, since you don’t want to follow us to Lingshan to practice Buddhism, then I ask you, are you willing to take me as your master? I am the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong. You should have heard of my name!”

The black bear demon was slightly startled, and a trace of fluctuation flashed in his eyes.

Naturally, it had heard of the reputation of the Monkey King, and his magical powers in pacifying the Northern Continent were widely known in the three realms.

Wukong was delighted to see the Black Bear Demon’s reaction and continued:

“In that case, you can become my disciple, and I will teach you the supreme method to greatly increase your strength. Even if you practice alone in this mountain for a long time, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to make a big breakthrough.

Follow me, I will teach you the subtle method, so that you can make rapid progress in your cultivation. In the future, when you have the ability, you will be able to come and go freely, not only on this small hill, but also in the sky.”

After listening to what Wukong said, the black bear demon began to waver.

Although it is free and at ease while practicing in this mountain, it is well aware that its own strength is limited. It is extremely difficult to reach a higher level.

Now that Wukong says he can teach it the Dharma, this is indeed a great temptation for it.

“Are you serious about what the Immortal said? Can you really teach me powerful magic?”

The black bear demon asked.

Wukong patted his chest and said confidently:
“I, Old Sun, keep my word. How could I lie to you? As long as you sincerely want to be my disciple, I will not hide anything and will teach you everything I know.

Moreover, if you become my disciple, my disciples will be all over the world in the future, and as my personal disciple, your status will naturally be extraordinary.”

The black bear hesitated for a moment. Thinking of his solitary practice in the mountains and the possibility of his strength stagnating in the future, he finally gritted his teeth, made up his mind, knelt on the ground with a plop, and said:

“Master, please accept my disciple’s greetings! I would like to take you as my master, and I hope you can teach me more.”

Seeing this, Wukong nodded with satisfaction, laughed, and said:

“Okay! Get up. From today on, you are my apprentice. I will teach you well and make you a well-known figure in the Three Realms.

Let’s go, we will go back and meet up with your elder Tang and your senior brother Bai Long, and we will set out on the road to Lingshan together. Maybe I can teach you some skills along the way.”

Ever since he accepted the Black Bear Demon as his disciple, Wukong’s desire to accept more disciples has become stronger and stronger.

He thought that if he could accept more disciples, it would not only strengthen the team, but also allow his concept of harmony between humans and demons to spread more widely.

then.

Adhere to the concept of being a good teacher.

Wukong is preparing to recruit disciples on a large scale.

but.

Just had this thought.

But when he arrived at Gao Laozhuang, he hit a wall.

After experiencing some things in Gao Village, he learned that a pig demon was causing trouble here.

Wukong then prepared to subdue the pig demon.

to the place.

Wukong knocked the pig demon to the ground in just a few moves.

Then say:
“Hey! You pig demon! You actually harmed the people here. Now I’m giving you a chance to atone for your sins. If you become my disciple and do good deeds with me in the future, I’ll spare your life!”

The pig demon was unwilling:

“Who are you? How dare you meddle in Grandpa Pig’s business! I am Marshal Tianpeng who has come down to earth. I am not someone you can mess with!”

After hearing what the pig demon said, Wukong grinned and said disdainfully:
“So what, Marshal Tianpeng? You are nothing but a pig demon that commits crimes in the human world. I am the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, and today I will make you pay for what you have done.”

When the pig demon heard the name of Wukong, his heart was slightly shocked. The reputation of the Monkey King was naturally well-known to him.

But it was proud of its former status as Marshal of the Heavenly Peng, and said with forced calmness:

“So what if I’m the Great Sage Equaling Heaven? Even though I may have done something inappropriate here, why should I listen to you? You’re nothing but a monkey!”

“Haha, it seems like you really want to be beaten!”

Wukong taught him a lesson again.

The pig demon shouted, “Grandpa Great Sage! Grandpa Great Sage! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I, the old pig, will take you as my master!”

Wukong collects the stick:

“That’s right! You pig demon, if you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? If I didn’t think you still have some potential, I would never have let you go so easily.”

The pig demon lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

It raised its head, looked at Wukong, a trace of fear flashed in its eyes, and said:

“Master, I, Old Pig, will follow you from now on. I hope you can teach me more. I will definitely change my bad deeds!”
