#1512 - Xitian is in power, and wants you to call a deer a horse
Guanyin Bodhisattva, confident of victory, calmly said:
"I already know what you seek. You suspect that the monkey at Flower Fruit Mountain is not the real Sun Wukong."
"Since that's the case, don't worry. I will go with you to Flower Fruit Mountain to see. If he's real, it's hard to eliminate him; if he's fake, it's easy to remove him. We'll know the truth when we get there."
"I will accompany you, and the Western Paradise will always support you. We must distinguish the true from the false and uphold justice for Sun Wukong."
The implied meaning of Guanyin Bodhisattva's words was already very clear: the Western Paradise and Guanyin Bodhisattva would be monitoring everything until the entire ordeal was completed.
If Tang Sanzang and the others didn't cooperate, then the one who would suffer would be Sun Wukong, trapped in the Avici Hell.
Tang Sanzang raised his head, gritting his teeth as he stared at Guanyin Bodhisattva.
"How is Wukong now?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva remained aloof and arrogant.
"Didn't I say? Sun Wukong is missing. The problem now is to find out if the one at Flower Fruit Mountain is Sun Wukong. If he is, all problems will be solved.
If he isn't, we'll have to keep looking, but we won't know where to find the real Sun Wukong. We don't even know if we can find a living Sun Wukong."
A threat, a blatant threat!
If they didn't cooperate obediently, they couldn't guarantee Sun Wukong's life!
This was the attitude of the Western Paradise.
At this moment, Tang Sanzang's face was as dark as ink, his expression concealing endless killing intent.
"You…"
Tang Sanzang's voice was trembling, as if he would rush up and beat Guanyin Bodhisattva at any moment.
Zhu Bajie tugged at the corner of Tang Sanzang's robe, anxiously saying:
"Master, calm down. This Guanyin Bodhisattva isn't worth it. You have to think about Senior Brother."
Sha Wujing also whispered:
"Master, now that Immortal Yu Shen is not here, it's obviously an arrangement by the Western Paradise. But we must believe in Immortal Yu Shen. He has unparalleled power and the wisdom to plan strategies. He will definitely not let the Western Paradise succeed."
"We might as well follow the words of the Western Paradise for now, take it one step at a time. At least, we can't let Senior Brother be in trouble."
Mentioning Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang slightly eased the anger in his heart. It wasn't forgiveness, nor obedience, but only because Sun Wukong was now in the hands of the Western Paradise. If something went wrong, Sun Wukong's life would be in danger.
However, a voice in Tang Sanzang's heart was telling him that this shameless Western Paradise must not be allowed to be so arrogant! Revenge, he must take revenge! He would let them know his power!
Tang Sanzang took a deep breath, not erupting, but only saying in a gloomy voice:
"Then please, Great Master Guanyin, go to Flower Fruit Mountain to identify the true from the false!"
Guanyin Bodhisattva burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha! That's right. Don't worry, there are many ways to identify Sun Wukong, and many people can identify him, but it also depends on your performance."
"If you say he's real, I'll be very happy. But if you say he's not real, we can only continue to look, look for a long time, look for life and death."
"Let's go."
Guanyin Bodhisattva was now confident of victory, completely disregarding the anger and killing intent on the faces of Tang Sanzang and his disciples.
Zhu Bajie was even clutching his Nine-toothed Rake in his hand, and even Sha Wujing had taken out his Crescent Moon Shovel.
But Tang Sanzang only said in an extremely calm tone, "Let's go."
As soon as they arrived, they saw a pilgrim, sitting high on a stone platform, drinking and making merry with a group of monkeys.
The Six-Eared Macaque sitting there at the moment had yellow hair and a golden headband, golden eyes and fiery pupils, wearing a brocade straight robe and a tiger skin skirt; he also held a golden-banded iron rod in his hand, and wore a pair of deerskin boots on his feet;
He also had a hairy face and a thunderous mouth, protruding cheeks and a separate Earth Star, wide ears and a broad forehead, with fangs growing outwards.
The Six-Eared Macaque was already very familiar with Sun Wukong's persona, and even his appearance and expression had become exactly the same.
At this moment, the Six-Eared Macaque saw Guanyin Bodhisattva leading Tang Sanzang and others to come, and he already knew that things would undoubtedly succeed.
Immediately, the Six-Eared Macaque flew over and bowed down to Guanyin Bodhisattva, saying:
"Praise the Greatly Compassionate and Savior Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, may I ask what brings Guanyin Bodhisattva here? If there's anything I… your old Sun can do, I will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation!"
The Six-Eared Macaque's flattering expression at this moment was like that of a loyal dog, very respectful and pious.
However, Tang Sanzang and the others frowned, their faces extremely unsightly.
The Six-Eared Macaque used Sun Wukong's appearance and even imitated Sun Wukong's way of speaking, making Tang Sanzang and the others feel disgusted!
If the dignified Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Monkey King of Flower Fruit Mountain, were so flattering and humble, what would he be called the Great Sage Equaling Heaven!
If the Journey to the West team had such a flattering person from the Western Paradise, what would it be called the Journey to the West?!
Zhu Bajie even cursed out loud:
"You beast, stop wagging your tail and begging for mercy here. Your Pig Grandpa brought the old hag to take you in!"
The Six-Eared Macaque didn't care at all, not even looking at Zhu Bajie, but respectfully said to Guanyin Bodhisattva:
"Great Master, could it be that you discovered that my master and two junior brothers have done some wrong things in the past, and specially sent them over? Please punish me, Great Master, Amitabha."
The Six-Eared Macaque bowed respectfully again. For him, Guanyin Bodhisattva was the spokesperson of the supreme Western Paradise. He only needed to please Guanyin Bodhisattva, and he didn't need to care about Tang Sanzang and the others at all.
Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing were surging with anger, but Tang Sanzang stopped them.
Tang Sanzang looked at Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing, shaking his head helplessly.
The two disciples understood and could only lower their heads, their fists clenched tightly.
If such a person were to be their Senior Brother, they would have beaten this damned thing to death long ago!
Tang Sanzang's eyes were full of sorrow, but he calmed down, and coldly said to Guanyin Bodhisattva:
"Please, Bodhisattva, identify him."
Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled, not caring about Tang Sanzang and the others' anger, but casually said:
"When I silently recite the Tightening Spell, the one who feels pain is the real one, and the one who doesn't feel pain is the fake one."
Then, Guanyin Bodhisattva casually began to recite.
She recited it very casually.
When the Six-Eared Macaque heard this, he quickly began to act, pretending to be in so much pain that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but while rolling around on the ground, he得意地gave Tang Sanzang a grimace.
Tang Sanzang and the others were furious, but they didn't say much.
Guanyin Bodhisattva said with a hypocritical face:
"It doesn't seem like he's fake, what do you say?"
Tang Sanzang said with a cold face, "If the Bodhisattva says he's real, then he's real. I have no objection. Now, should we release the fake one?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva laughed and said:
"Don't rush, my identification alone is useless."
"I want you to take him to the Heavenly Court, to find the Jade Emperor and the gods to identify him. Only when you get them to say he's real is he truly real."
The Western Paradise wanted Tang Sanzang and the others to call a deer a horse themselves!
In this way, the Heavenly Court would completely lose the opportunity to obtain the merits of the Journey to the West!
