My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 203 Rotten Peach Mountain

"Ask your heart?"

The words of Heishuihe God reverberated in Jiang Yuan's heart, making him lose his mind to sit idle. After drinking a few cups of tea, he got up to leave.

"I'm really sorry for the poor hospitality. I hope that the Immortal Elder will come to the humble house again after he obtains the real merit, and then let the little god make up for today's rudeness."

The Heishui River God sent him all the way to the shore from the Water Mansion. When parting, he eagerly held Jiang Yuan's arm and spoke sincerely.

Jiang Yuan couldn't resist, so he could only smile and agree, "After attaining the Tao, I must first thank the God of the River for his guidance today."

"Hahaha, it's just two nonsense, what kind of advice."

The Heishui River God liked this humble fairy more and more, and pulled Jiang Yuan to say something, before returning to the Water Mansion reluctantly.

"Ah uh"

Wuqian let out a happy cry, stepped on the clouds and swept towards the bustling city-states on the west bank, found the largest city, settled down in a hidden suburban field, and headed towards the city with high spirits.

"What a majestic beast, could it be a fairy?"

"Quick, hurry up and notify the city lord that a fairy is coming!"

"Immortal, Immortal, I have a wealth of wealth and treasures like a mountain. I would like to use a thousand pieces of gold to seek an elixir of longevity."

"I beg you to be merciful, Immortal, and save my seriously ill mother!"

Jiang Yuan was distracted by the "questioning the heart" that the God of Heishui River said, and suddenly fell into a turbulent noise. When he looked up, there were crowds of people in all directions, and more people swarmed in.

Glancing at the city gate in front of him, the three characters "Che Chi City" came into view.

Listening sideways, I learned from the few words from the turbulent crowd that there is no country here, only 36 cities, and Chechi City ranks among the top in terms of population and wealth, and is one of the leaders of the 36 cities.

"The city lord is here, don't retreat!"

A mighty team came galloping from the city with gongs and drums, and several knights waved their whips to separate the crowd.

Jiang Yuan glanced at a noble figure in the team, lowered his head, patted his mount, and scolded with a smile: "You made such a big battle, what are you doing, follow me directly to the sea."

With a face full of frustration, Wuqian raised his hoof and stepped out a wave of air that shook the crowd away, and stepped on the clouds angrily.

"Ride the clouds and ride the fog, gods and men!" The crowd below went wild in an instant.

"Fairy don't go away!" The noble figure in the mighty team hurriedly shouted, "Che Chicheng is willing to honor the immortal as the national teacher."

With a sway of the cloud, it turned across the ocean and landed on a cliff by the sea.

"Don't make a sad face, and go to play nearby, and come here to find me in five days. Don't make trouble."

Jiang Yuan flipped off his mount, and knocked that drooping big head.

Wuqian rubbed against Jiang Yuan happily, jumped off the cliff to have fun.

Jiang Yuan smiled, turned around, with the sun on his head, facing the sea, sitting cross-legged, watching the ebb and flow of the tide on the coast, listening to the roar of the huge waves under the cliff, his eyes were contemplative.

Does Fangcun Mountain exist?
"The square inch of Lingtai, the slanting moon and three stars" is the heart, and "Bodhi" is enlightenment.

Sun Wukong is a natural saint conceived by a stone egg fairy. When he was born, he could shoot a golden light straight into the Lingxiao Palace. There is a huge potential in its body.

Could it be that "Bodhi Patriarch" is Monkey King's own heart?
The so-called gaining the Tao is actually an epiphany, awakening one's own potential?
Sun Wukong escaped from the world for hundreds of years in Huaguoshan blessed land, and then developed his Taoism and crossed to Nanzhanbuzhou. After more than ten years of living in the world, he crossed the ocean and escaped from the world of mortals.

This time of being born, entering the world, and being born again is enough for the "heart ape" to find his original mind and realize Bodhi.

If this is the case, then there will only be a "Bodhi Patriarch" who belongs exclusively to Monkey King in the Slanting Moon and Three Star Caves on the Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai!
But what Jiang Yuan was looking for was neither that Fangcun Mountain nor that Patriarch.

But there seems to be something wrong.

Because the four health generals once told Jiang Yuan that when Sun Wukong came back from seeking the Tao, he personally told the monkeys that he was.

"Ugh--"

Looking at the vast sea, Jiang Yuan let out a long sigh. At this moment, his heart was like the eddy current under the sea surface, it seemed calm, but in reality it was turbulent.

"Why don't you just go to Longevity Mountain? Zhen Yuanzi is the ancestor of the Earth Immortal, he is on the same level as the Sanqing, and he can listen to the 'Hunyuan Daoguo'. He is an excellent teacher."

"Buddhism? It's okay. Both the Golden Immortal Buddha Fruit and the Celestial Immortal Dao Fruit are the avenues of longevity. But I don't know anything about Buddhism, and I have already cultivated the Ghost and Immortal Dao Fruit. Well, it's an alternate option."

"It's a pity that Taoist Patriarch Sanqing lived above 33 days, and he didn't open the Dharma door. Otherwise, he would go directly to the Taoist seat and bathe in the true meaning of the Dao. I'm afraid it would save countless hard work."

Jiang Yuan raised his head and looked up at the sky, his eyes wandering, "I don't know what kind of avenue is that 'Hunyuan Daoguo'?"

"I'm thinking too far. At least I have to be an Earth Immortal. Maybe I'm qualified to go to the seat of Yuanshi Tianzun and listen to 'Hunyuan Daoguo'. Let's look at it first."

Jiang Yuan withdrew his gaze, looked down at the rock pattern in front of him, and his mind turned.

"Oh, it's a pity that I didn't see Bodhi in this world."

"Ask your heart."

"Sun Wukong's desire in the past was to be detached and free from reincarnation, so he obtained the wonderful way of longevity, 72 transformations, somersaulting clouds and other great supernatural powers."

"And me?"

"The Dao of Immortals is naturally what I seek, and moreover, it is the hidden danger of the difference between the spirit and the flesh."

The sun sets and the moon rises, Wufei rabbits go away, and five days have passed.

When Wuqian came back with his mouth grinning, he saw that Jiang Yuan's body hadn't changed a bit when he left.

Wuqian's smile faded away, he fell to the cliff and lowered his head, leaned in front of Jiang Yuan and rubbed against each other, uttering low groans to express his concern.

Jiang Yuan exhaled dirty air, raised his hand and rubbed his big head squeezed into his arms, and said with a light smile, "I'm fine, are you having fun?"

Wuqian immediately bared her teeth and winked.

After understanding the meaning of the mount, Jiang Yuan couldn't help being surprised. It turned out that the gray donkey said that what he encountered in Chechi City that day gave him inspiration, so he went to a city to become a five-day immortal and enjoyed a handful of offerings from the people. .

In the end, the gray donkey also took credit for Jiang Yuan, saying how loyal he was to Jiang Yuan, and when the appointed time came, he resolutely gave up pleasure and returned.

"Okay, you are loyal." Jiang Yuan praised dumbfoundedly.

Wuqian yelled proudly, then blinked at Jiang Yuan, and asked Jiang Yuan what he had gained in the past few days, and what he planned to do next.

Jiang Yuan sighed suddenly, and slowly took out a monkey hair from his casket, "Try again, if you still miss, then find another way."

At the beginning, the old monkey begged Sun Wukong for three hairs for Jiang Yuan, one was to impart the Dharma, the other was to crush it and fled hundreds of miles away, and the other could manifest the phantom of the great sage.

The first one was used after leaving Huaguo Mountain, the second one was used when he escaped from Wujin Yaowang when he was fighting for Jiusuihe in Luoye Ridge, and the last one was never used by Jiang Yuan, and he kept it on his body.

Under Wuqian's curious eyes, Jiang Yuan crushed the last monkey hair.

The broken monkey hair scattered into the wind and turned into a mighty monkey king wearing a purple gold crown with phoenix wings, wearing a golden armor with chains, and walking on cloud shoes on lotus root silk.

The Monkey King leaped into the air, stretched out his hand, and the Ruyi Golden Cudgel fell into his hand, Xin held a stick flower in his hand, condescending, his sharp eyes made Jiang Yuan shiver.

"My lord, long time no see."

Thinking of Sun Wukong who was suffering in the alchemy furnace, Jiang Yuan sighed.

The golden-armored monkey king just stared at Jiang Yuan quietly, without saying a word.

Jiang Yuan got up slowly, and bowed to the Monkey King in the air, "Jiang Yuan has been seeking the Lingtai for more than half a year. He has been running around in vain and has gained nothing. I hope the Great Sage will guide us!"

After all, Jiang Yuan looked nervously at the great sage Huaying, and his heart jumped into his throat.

The monkey king maintained the posture of raising his stick and looking down, his golden armor was shining, and his momentum was majestic, but he remained motionless, like a stone sculpture.

one breath, two breaths
Thirty breaths later, the golden-armored monkey king still didn't respond at all, but the divine light on his body began to dim.

"Oh," Jiang Yuan smiled wryly, "What am I imagining? That's all."

Shaking his head, Jiang Yuan cupped his hands again towards the Monkey King in the air, "Thanks for the great sage, please go back. I will definitely go to visit on the day when the great sage descends to the lower realms."

Jiang Yuan was sending him off in disappointment, when he suddenly saw the Golden Armored Monkey King's eyes flicker, Jiang Yuan's heart trembled, fearing that his eyes would be dazzled, he quickly stared at him with wide eyes.

However, the monkey king's lips squirmed, and he uttered two words in a low voice, and then jumped up, turning into a stream of clear light, and didn't look far away.

"Five thousand, hurry up!"

Jiang Yuan's hands trembled with excitement, he jumped onto his mount, pointed at Qing Guang who was fleeing and yelled anxiously.

At the same time, the words uttered by the Monkey King rumbled in his mind like thunder—"Lingtai, Bodhi"

"Ugh!"

With eyes puffed out, Wuqian stepped on his hooves vigorously, wrapped in clouds, and chased after the disappearing Qingguang with all his strength.

Qing Guang escaped across the sky, and the clouds desperately chased after them, passing by the mountains in an instant, and arrived at a deep and beautiful mountain.

As soon as the clear light fell into the mountain, it disappeared.

call!The cloud stopped suddenly, revealing the panting Wuqian.

Looking down, Jiang Yuan can see the steep peaks like euphorbias, the cliffs like sharp knives, the sun shining on the verdure, the old trees wrapped around thin vines, the exotic flowers and grasses all over the place, the bamboo trees and pines all over the mountain, it is really beautiful mountains and deep forests.

Such a spiritual mountain, there should be a real fairy!
Jiang Yuan couldn't wait any longer, he jumped up directly, the wind surged under his feet, and he fell headfirst.

Kacha, a few branches that fell in the forest were trampled off, and Jiang Yuan fell to the ground with a bang.

Looking around, the sun casts dappled light and shadows among the ancient pines and old trees. The leaves on the ground are fluffy, and the mushrooms are luxuriant in the shade. It is obviously a secluded mountain with few people.

Yun Qi chased after him and landed beside Jiang Yuan, splashing a few fallen leaves.

Wuqian leaned against Jiang Yuan, looking around with wide eyes.

"Go, explore inside."

Jiang Yuan raised his foot, stepped on the fluffy leaves, and his feet were light and light like stepping on cotton balls, which made him jump for joy from the inside out.

Going through the secluded forest, crossing the valley, turning up a hill, and walking for an unknown amount of time, I saw that the sky was getting dark, and I reached a cliff.

The cliff is bathed in sunset glow, as if shrouded in a cloud of colorful mist, the moss on the cliff is bright green, and an old cypress stands on the rock.

"Wow—"

With a clear cry, several white cranes seemed to be startled by Jiang Yuan's master and servant, and they spread their wings and flew away from the cliff.

The white cranes passed by, startling a group of elk, blinking their wet eyes and running away nimbly, and another group of white apes, chattering and tugging at the vines on the cliff, flew past.

Such a spiritual place should be the fairy cave!
Jiang Yuan lingered in front of the cliff for a long time, just now he walked around to the back of the mountain, and after walking for a while, the sunset glow gradually faded.

As the sky became dim, Jiang Yuan's heart slowly sank from the excitement and joy, his steps became heavier and heavier, and his expression became lighter and weaker.

Looking at Wuqian around with great interest, aware of Jiang Yuan's emotions, he carefully restrained his movements, and followed behind step by step.

Gradually, the number of old vines began to increase, the mountain road was winding, and the ground was full of fallen trees and dead branches, stumbling and stumbling.

Jiang Yuan stopped slowly, looked back, his eyes passed through the forest, and landed on the previous cliff.

Wandering in the mountains for so long, only the cliff made Jiang Yuan feel like a fairy cave, but now, the farther he walked, the stronger the sense of loss in his heart.

"go back."

Jiang Yuan gave a low shout, turned his footsteps, and was about to go back, when suddenly, a gust of mountain wind blew in, and there was a faint scent of decay in the wind.

"Peach?"

Jiang Yuan, who had been in Taoshi Mountain for a long time, quickly recognized the smell, his heart moved, he turned around again, and walked quickly following the rotten smell.

After turning over the mountain, the rich and rotten fragrance suddenly hits the face.

As far as the eye can see, there are peach groves all over the mountains, the fresh peaches on the trees are huge, plump and attractive, and the rotten peaches under the trees are piled up, rotting like mud.

"Mountain of Rotten Peach?"

Jiang Yuan showed surprise.

When Sun Wukong entered the Sanxing Cave to learn Taoism, he was carrying water, looking for firewood, sweeping the floor and practicing calligraphy, until Patriarch Bodhi asked him how long he had been here. Law".

"If this is Rotten Peach Mountain, then the cliff in front must be the Three Star Cave!"

Jiang Yuan's heart beat wildly, and he wanted to run down the mountain, all the way to the cliff, but he stopped with great determination.

Taking a deep breath, the rotten aroma seeps into the nose and mouth, and a greasy smell fills the heart.

Jiang Yuan shook his head, found a leeward mountain depression, faced the direction of the cliff, and sat on the ground.

He just passed the cliff, but he didn't see the mountain gate. It would be futile to go again at this time, so let's wait here for the opportunity.

Wuqian drilled into the mountain depression, lay down beside Jiang Yuan, and watched the cliff with him.

The night covered the sky, the bright moon rose, and the cold moonlight poured down like mercury, covering the mountains and plains.

After a while, there was a sound of snoring in the mountain depression, Jiang Yuan turned his head and saw that his horse was asleep, he shook his head and laughed.

The cliffs in the distance became blurred in the night.

Looking at the blurred outline, looking at it, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt that his memory was also blurred, as if he couldn't remember the appearance of the cliff.

Before he knew it, his eyelids drooped, his body was tilted, leaning on Wuqian's majestic body, in a trance, like sleeping but not sleeping.

The forest is deep and quiet, and the sun is dappled.

There was a sound of trampling leaves, and a tall and thin young man emerged from the forest.

The young man was wearing a coarse cloth jacket, his appearance was correct, but his eyes were swollen and his complexion was gloomy. He was obviously a good young man, but he seemed lethargic.

"Huh, huh, huh, so tired."

The young man supported the old tree, panting like a cow, sweating like rain, finally recovering a little bit, his eyes showed a sense of confusion——

"What am I here for?"

In the forest ahead, a woodcutter with a load of firewood and an ax came out at this time. It seemed that he had harvested a lot, and his steps were brisk and smiling.

The young man hurried forward and panted and asked, "Uncle, where is this place?"

The woodcutter stopped and looked at the young man in surprise, "Little brother, you don't know where this is, why did you come here?"

"I, I..." the young man slapped his head vigorously, and said distressedly, "I forgot, there seems to be nothing in my mind."

But the woodcutter laughed and said: "My mind is empty, and I can rest from my troubles. My brother is very lucky."

"No, I must know what this place is!"

The young man suddenly grabbed the woodcutter and roared with a ferocious expression.

The woodcutter was taken aback, and threw the young man away, "I have an old mother at home, and I'm waiting for me to go back and cook."

As he spoke, he lifted the firewood behind him, and watched the young man slowly back away vigilantly, and when he opened the distance, he left a word, turned around and trotted away.

"Little brother, there is a downhill road behind you, go back."

The young man hurriedly chased after him, but unfortunately his body was too weak, his feet were weak and he stumbled.

"Don't go!"

Jiang Yuan woke up suddenly, and stretched out his hand to grab it, but it was in vain.
