After being defeated by Qingmei, I became a top player

Chapter 539 Mental collapse

Wu Yunfei's mood has been up and down these days, but fortunately the final outcome was good.

With the income from paid posts, he can now read novels without paying.

Not only does he not spend any money, because he has earned so much Wan Gu coins from translating posts, he has now become a big moneymaker in Wan Gu Literature Network.

Whenever I see a book that is well written, I will give it some reward.

However, two days ago, Wangu Literature Network sent him another message.

Since the last time, Wu Yunfei has developed the habit of reading short stories on the Wan Gu Literature website.

The content of this short message is that Wan Gu has opened a new forum, the Wan Gu Forum.

And because his account has enabled paid posts, he can obtain a big-name certified account in the Wan Gu Forum.

Wu Yunfei was still somewhat interested in this, so he entered the Wan Gu Forum.

It seemed that because it was just being built, when Wu Yunfei entered, there were only some insightful book reviews that had previously appeared in the book review section of Wan Gu Literature Network.

When he first entered the Wan Gu Forum, Wu Yunfei felt it was boring.

However, because it was a new thing, he waited and watched for two days.

Wu Yunfei believes that there are many people who are watching like him.

Some are waiting and watching, while others naturally think this is an opportunity.

On that day, someone posted on the Wan Gu Forum.

Wu Yunfei read it and found that most of it was not very nutritious and was probably just written for the sake of writing.

But today, when Wu Yunfei opened the forum again, he found that there were many more people there.

And most of them were discussing the plot of "Journey to the West".

Wu Yunfei, who received the physical book, naturally knew where these people came from.

It was not until this time that Wu Yunfei discovered how useful his big-name certification was.

For those who were invited like him, as long as they posted something, the title would be in gold bold.
You can see it at a glance among so many posts.

Just as these viewers were pouring in, several big names posted.

It was like an appointment.

Wu Yunfei was also attracted by some of the post titles.

For example, "You thought it was a fairy tale novel, but what I saw was satire"

There was not much content in the post, but what it said surprised Wu Yunfei.

……

“After receiving the vernacular version from Muda, I finally posted this.”

"Originally, like most people, I read this so-called fairy tale novel with the intention of reading Mu Da's new book."

“I have to say that Mu Da’s writing skills are very strong. Whether it is the vernacular version or the classical Chinese version, one can feel the grand background of the book Journey to the West and the richness of the characters.”

"When I didn't receive the vernacular version, I was still a little confused. After all, the classical version is a bit obscure, and the translated version may not be Mu Da's true thoughts."

"That's why I waited for the vernacular version of Muda. As a result, I found that my previous thoughts not only did not disappear, but became clearer."

“Journey to the West is a satirical novel.”

……

When Wu Yunfei saw this, he didn’t want to watch any further.

From beginning to end, he didn't see the irony in Journey to the West.

But out of trust in him as a fellow big shot, he still held his nose and watched on to see where this so-called irony came from.

……

"Maybe everyone finds it hard to believe that a novel about a journey to the West to fight monsters can be associated with satire?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but after I read the vernacular version, I had to believe it."

"Because according to my way of thinking, it all makes sense."

"Next, I will talk about some of the points I found."

"According to the book, the system is divided into two types: immortals and Buddhas, which correspond to Taoism and Buddhism. Taoism still exists in Daxia, but Buddhism has disappeared. It can only be seen in literature. Those who are interested can go and have a look."

"And what I want to say is that Journey to the West uses the open and covert struggles between Taoism and Buddhism to satirize the intrigues and deceptions in the officialdom!"

"After reading the full article, I discovered a truth that made me uncomfortable."

"Everything about the Great Sage's life was arranged from the moment he was born. His existence was arranged by the so-called Taoism to be a pawn of Buddhism."

"At that time, there were more than just the Great Sage in the Flower-Fruit Mountain, but among so many monsters, no one discovered the Water Curtain Cave. It was a coincidence that when the Great Sage came out, he was pointed out by a monkey."

"What's even more coincidental is that when the Great Sage went to learn martial arts, the powerful Taoist figure Bodhi Patriarch of the Three Star Cave of the Slanting Moon never showed up again after teaching the Great Sage his skills."

"Could it be that he was waiting there specifically for a monkey to come and learn his skills?"

"Also, there happens to be a water source in Huaguo Mountain that leads directly to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, which is just the right place for the Great Sage to get the Dinghai Magic Needle Iron."

"The Jade Emperor recruited the Great Sage, who was capable of causing chaos in the Heavenly Palace, but he made him a horse keeper to raise horses?"

"Then it's even more outrageous. They let a monkey guard the Peach Garden? That's a monkey!"

"The subsequent havoc in the sky was also a little outrageous. I know some Taoist mythological figures, and the Jade Emperor is ranked above Tathagata. But the Jade Emperor did not take action, but let Tathagata take action to suppress the Great Sage?"

"What's the reason behind this?"

"I didn't understand it at first, but later I figured it out. The Jade Emperor wanted Tathagata to see that he and the Great Sage were in conflict. He didn't want to intervene, and couldn't intervene, so he asked Tathagata to intervene."

"And then he was pressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, so that the Great Sage could wait for someone to go to Buddhism to seek Buddhist scriptures, so that the Great Sage could become a pawn for the Taoists to step into Buddhism!"

……

Looking at what this big shot said, Wu Yunfei always felt puzzled.

What Taoism and Buddhism, what chess pieces.

Mu Linsen's book did not say that the Monkey King's rampage in Heaven was an act.

The fight has gotten to that point and the Jade Emperor has lost all his face. Even if the Jade Emperor wants to use the Monkey King as a pawn, do you think the Monkey King would be willing?

Wu Yunfei didn't want to watch it anymore, but after a while, he became curious about how this big shot would make up for it.

So he reopened the post.

……

"Some people may think that I am over-interpreting it, but I don't think so."

“You may think that the relationship between Taoism and the Great Sage has been severed by the Jade Emperor, but I say, no.”

"What is Bodhi Patriarch? The Great Sage's master."

"What is Tang Sanzang? He is also the Great Sage's master."

"One is a Taoist master, the other is a Buddhist master, but if you think about it, you will know which of the two masters is the real master."

"Bodhi Patriarch, when you teach the Great Sage the 72 Transformations, you teach everyone without distinction, and do not regard the Great Sage as a monster."

"The Great Sage pushed down the ginseng fruit tree, but instead of going to look for Tathagata, he went back to look for Patriarch Bodhi. The closeness of their relationship can be seen at a glance."

"But what about Master Tang Sanzang? Besides causing trouble for the Great Sage, what is his favorite thing to do? Reciting the Tightening Curse!"

"And the Great Sage was reprimanded for killing an ordinary person in order to save Tang Sanzang."

"I feel like this isn't a master-disciple relationship, it's more like a superior-subordinate relationship."

"So, even if there is a rift between the Jade Emperor and the Great Sage, the Great Sage is still a disciple of Taoism."

……

Seeing this, Wu Yunfei thought for a while.

It seems that this is really the case.

Compared with Patriarch Bodhi and the Monkey King, what Tang Sanzang did was more like the relationship between superiors and subordinates in a company.

It was great when things were going well, but once something went wrong or there were different opinions, the subordinates would suffer. Thinking of this, the four people who Wu Yunfei had originally thought were a good match for the journey to the West did not seem to be so compatible anymore.

"Do you want to continue reading?"

Wu Yunfei felt that if he continued watching, "Journey to the West" might not be the "Journey to the West" he had imagined.

But he was unwilling to stop reading.

With a sigh, Wu Yunfei continued reading.

After all, people can't live in falsehood, right?
……

"It was said before that Taoism had planted a pawn in Buddhism. Has Buddhism discovered it?"

"I think we didn't notice it at first, but we found it later."

“So, there was the plot about the real and fake Monkey King.”

"To be honest, I don't really want to talk about this because if I do, it might make everyone uncomfortable."

"I'm giving you a warning now. It's not too late to stop now. If you read the following content, whether you believe it or not, you will have doubts in your heart."

……

Wu Yunfei was stunned.

Is this persuasion or seduction?
Why do I want to watch it more and more after seeing what he said?

……

"Okay, why do I say that this episode of The True and False Monkey King is Tathagata's counterattack against Taoism?"

"Because of that six-eared macaque, there are only two people in the world who can identify him: one is Di Ting, and the other is Tathagata."

"But how did Di Ting do it?"

"After hearing the truth from the false, Di Ting kept silent and only said, 'The Buddha's teachings are boundless.'"

"Is this phrase 'Buddha Dharma is boundless' saying that Tathagata can tell the truth from the false, or is it saying that Tathagata's plan is too big?"

"Afterwards, the Great Sage and Liu'er came before Tathagata, and the real one was separated from the fake one. Then the Great Sage beat Liu'er to death with a stick!"

"Everyone, do you feel relieved after seeing this?"

"But what if the one who died was not Liu Er, but the Great Sage?"

……

hum!
Wu Yunfei was confused.

The one who died was the Monkey King, not Liu Er?
How can it be?

So the gods, including Tathagata, were there and had already recognized Liu'er, so why did he kill the Monkey King?
Wu Yunfei couldn't accept it and hurried to read on.

……

"Why do I say that the one who was beaten to death was the Great Sage?"

"On one hand, I think this is Tathagata's way of breaking the Taoist plot, because he knows that the Great Sage is a pawn of Taoism, and Tang Sanzang's journey to obtain the scriptures cannot be stopped. So, wouldn't it be OK to replace the opponent's black pieces with his own white pieces?"

"Also, since this episode, Tang Sanzang has not recited the Tightening Curse again, right?"

"Did Tang Sanzang discover that the monkey had changed, or was it because the tight-fitting spell was no longer effective?"

"Or something else."

"And what I consider to be stone hammer evidence."

"The Great Sage's true form is a spirit-bright stone monkey, who is able to transform himself, know the weather and terrain, and can move the stars and change the constellations."

"The six-eared macaque is good at listening, can understand reason, knows the past and the future, and understands everything."

"The abilities of both are similar, but Liu Er has an ability that can tell the future!"

“That is to know the past and the future!”

"Just think about it, if Liu Er knew that he would be beaten to death in front of Tathagata, why would he still go?"

"Go and die? I won't accept that."

"So, either Liu Er and Tathagata had discussed it, or Liu Er knew that he would not die. This makes sense!"

……

Wu Yunfei was silent.

If it was easy to fool Di Ting, then there was no way to fool Liu Er's ability to know the past and the future!

Since you know the future, why go and die?
Wu Yunfei was silent.

So, the Monkey King has already died?

Wu Yunfei, whose brain was a little insufficient, read the analysis of this big shot for a while.

After that, I closed the post and went away to feel depressed.

"If I had known, I would have listened to him and not watched it."

Wu Yunfei thought unhappily.

He can accept that "Journey to the West" is a satirical novel, but he cannot accept that the Monkey King is not the Monkey King!

With an unhappy mood, Wu Yunfei clicked on another post.

As a result, this time, he saw content that made him even more unhappy.

"The four masters and apprentices went to obtain the scriptures, but all the monsters without background died on the way, and all the monsters with background were taken away by the gods. Is this the scriptures?"

"There were so many powerful gods, but they didn't take good care of their mounts and pets, and didn't know they ran down. They only knew it when they were about to be killed by the Great Sage."

"The sins we have committed can be written off just like that?"

"Really, a background that goes far beyond the heavens!"

Wu Yunfei closed the post again with disgust.

Continue to read other posts on the Wan Gu Forum.

Not long after, a post titled "Watch Journey to the West backwards and you will open up a new world" came into view.

Although it is not certified by a big name, there are many people commenting on it.

Wu Yunfei took a deep breath and clicked on it.

……

"Haha, after reading the analysis of all the experts, I thought I should also do some analysis, but unfortunately my level is not good enough and I can't see the details."

"But when I accidentally flipped through the book from the back to the front, I discovered something interesting."

"If I reverse the plot of Journey to the West, what would it be like?"

"The Tathagata sat down with Jin Chanzi, Dou Sheng Buddha, the Altar Purifier, and the Golden Body Arhat, who were all carrying scriptures from the Western Heaven all the way to the Tang Dynasty in the East."

"They encountered various monsters along the way. The four masters and apprentices fought against the monsters all the way, but in the end, the scriptures were lost, and the monsters they encountered were all monsters with backgrounds."

"Sha Monk and Zhu Bajie were both disheartened. One went to the Flowing Sand River and the other went to Gao Village."

"The Great Sage was dissatisfied and was suppressed by Tathagata under the Five Finger Mountain. Jin Chanzi returned to the Eastern Land Tang to be the emperor's younger brother."

"Five hundred years later, the Great Sage broke through the Five Finger Mountain, rushed to the Lingxiao Palace, and made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace. Unexpectedly, the Jade Emperor summoned Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha to the Heavenly Palace to deal with him."

"Desperate and disheartened, the Great Sage threw his golden cudgel into the East China Sea, wasted his magical powers in the Three Stars Cave of the Slanting Moon, played around with the monkeys in the Flower-Fruit Mountain for a while, and finally cut himself off on the top of the mountain and turned into a stone!"

……

After reading it, Wu Yunfei wiped away his tears.

What the hell, looking at this netizen's random analysis, combined with the statement that the Monkey King had been beaten to death a long time ago.

Wu Yunfei actually cried after watching it.

"Mr. Mu, did you really write that?"
