Preventing Horse Dropping Every Day

Chapter 2

When the Monkey King finished eating, Cheng Mu took out the handkerchief he had prepared and carefully wiped his fingers.

"You …" Goku originally wanted to say that he could use magic to clean himself up, but when he saw Cheng Mu's serious expression as if she was doing something important, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

After wiping the Monkey King's fingers, Cheng Mu put the handkerchief aside and prepared to wash it. Now there was a more important thing to do, and that was to save his benefactor.

Cheng Mu asked the Monkey King, "Benefactor, tell me, how can I save you?"

Through what had just happened, the Monkey King had confirmed his previous thoughts. This person was indeed not an ordinary mortal. How could a mortal take out food out of thin air? It was possible that he was an immortal. If he was an immortal, he might really be able to tear off the talisman Tathagata had pasted. Thinking of this, he said to Cheng Mu, "Do you see the talisman pasted on the top of the mountain?"

Cheng Mu looked up. Sure enough, as the Monkey King had said, there was a bright yellow talisman pasted on the top of the mountain. There were strange symbols written on it. "I see my benefactor. What should I do?"

The Monkey King said, "Go up and tear it off. If you succeed, I can come out."

Cheng Mu nodded and said, "Okay, wait for me, benefactor. I'll get you out now."

Cheng Mu cast a spell to let himself slowly rise into the sky, and then when he was close to the talisman paper, he just stretched out his finger to touch it, but it was blocked by a solid defense line.

The pain from his fingers made Cheng Mu frown, but he couldn't give up. His benefactor, the benefactor who helped him become an immortal as soon as possible, was currently suffering at the bottom of the mountain. How could he continue to watch? This time, he stretched out his hands and gathered his magic power to hit the talisman paper, but it was hit down by the talisman paper.

"Ah …" Cheng Mu began to descend to the ground.

Monkey King's heart tightened when he heard the miserable screams in the air. He asked anxiously, "How are you? Are you alright?"

"Benefactor, I'm fine. It's just that I can't tear that talisman. I can't save you."

Just as Cheng Mu was about to fall to the ground, he steadied himself, so the Monkey King didn't see the scene of him falling to the ground. Even so, his body was currently very weak, and it would take a few days for him to recover.

Monkey King looked at Cheng Mu, who was standing in front of him with a pale face and a weak voice. He thought to himself, How can he be fine? He must be hiding it because he doesn't want me to worry.

Thinking of this, he blamed himself and said to Cheng Mu, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have been so impulsive as to let you tear that talisman."

Cheng Mu sat beside the Monkey King, shook his head and said to him, "No, how can I blame you? It's because my cultivation is not good enough that I got injured and couldn't save you."

Monkey King was silent for a while and asked, "What would you do if I wasn't your benefactor?

Monkey King knew that he was born from a stone. In the beginning, he was alone by his side. Later, when he became the king of Mount Huaguo, there were many monkeys around him. Later, in order to find a way to become stronger, he went to find a master and learned magic. Then, because he made a scene in the Heavenly Court, he was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain by Gautama Buddha.

Monkey's subordinates called him Great King because they wanted him to protect them and not be bullied by others. Those people from the Heavenly Court just wanted to play with him. They already gave him an official position. Would he be endlessly grateful? How laughable. Then what about this person? He called him his benefactor and said that he wanted to repay him. However, he didn't have any memory of saving him. Could it be that he recognized the wrong person? If there was a day when he realized that he recognized the wrong person, he would definitely quickly leave him. At that time, he would be left alone.

Cheng Mu was stunned by the Monkey King's sudden question, but it only took a few seconds for him to answer quickly, "My benefactor is my benefactor. I won't mistake you. And even if I did, I will find a way to save you."

Well, Cheng Mu suddenly felt very uncomfortable. It seemed that it was the aftereffect of the battle just now. He had to find a place to recuperate.

"You … What's wrong?" Monkey King asked carefully. There was nervousness in his tone that he didn't even notice.

He clearly saw that Cheng Mu was fine just now, but he suddenly covered his chest with his hand. His expression also looked very uncomfortable.

Cheng Mu looked at Sun Wukong's worried eyes and felt inexplicably happy in his heart. Was his benefactor worried about him? "It's fine. I just need to check it out. Benefactor, I'll be back soon."

Goku knew that the person in front of him was going to find a place to recover his body, but the feeling in Goku's heart told him that he didn't want this person to leave him, so he followed his heart and said to Cheng Mu, "You can just stay here and adjust yourself. Although I can't move my body, my hands can still move. I will also guard you by your side."

Cheng Mu obediently replied, "Thank you, benefactor." After saying that, Cheng Mu closed his eyes and sat cross-legged to recuperate.

Monkey King really did as he said. During Cheng Mu's recuperation period, he wholeheartedly protected Cheng Mu, causing all the wild beasts in the forest to flee.

When Cheng Mu finished recuperating, it was already five days later when he opened his eyes again. He exhaled and turned his head to see the Monkey King's red eyes. He was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Benefactor, what's wrong with you? Why are your eyes so red?"

Monkey King said indifferently, "I'm fine. I just didn't rest well. I will recover after a good rest.

Only Monkey King knew that when he saw that Cheng Mu had finally woken up, he could finally put down the worries in his heart. This person took five days to recuperate. During these five days, he didn't sleep well, afraid that something would happen to this person. If something really happened, the responsibility would be on him, because if he didn't ask this person to tear the talisman, he wouldn't be injured.

"Benefactor, you should rest now. This time, it's my turn to watch over you."

Cheng Mu felt that his benefactor's words didn't seem to be true. However, even if he asked his benefactor again, he definitely wouldn't say anything. Forget it, he would ask 259 himself and know what was going on.

Before Monkey King closed his eyes to rest, he said to Cheng Mu, "Monkey King, my name."

Monkey King, so his benefactor was telling him his name. Cheng Mu revealed a big smile and said to Monkey King, "Benefactor, my name is Cheng Mu."

Ah, since his benefactor had already told him his name, then he could call him by his name in the future. However, his benefactor was older than him and had saved him, so he couldn't call him by his name directly. That would be disrespectful to his benefactor. Then what could he call him? Cheng Mu frowned and began to think about how to address Monkey King in the future.

Monkey King hadn't rested yet. He opened his eyes slightly and saw the distressed look of the person beside him. He really felt that it was interesting, so he began to observe him.

Cheng Mu, who was being observed, thought hard for a while and finally thought of how to address Monkey King in the future.

Cheng Mu looked at Monkey King shyly and shouted, "Benefactor, are you asleep?"

Monkey King's low and lazy voice sounded, "No, what's the matter?"

Cheng Mu twisted his two slender white fingers together and his white face was tinged with a faint blush. He said shyly, "Benefactor, didn't you just tell me your name? Then I thought that since I already know your name, it would be a little inappropriate to call you by your name in the future. However, it's not appropriate to call you by your name directly, so can I call you Brother Wukong in the future?"

Brother Wukong. Cheng Mu's soft and shy voice made Monkey King's heart tremble fiercely. He turned his head uncomfortably and said, "If you want to call me that, then call me that in the future. I'm going to rest."

Cheng Mu's eyes curved and he said obediently, "Okay, Brother Wukong. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."

"Okay."

After dinner, Monkey King looked at Cheng Mu who was tidying up his sleeping quarters and asked, "Aren't you going home?"

Cheng Mu was setting up the tent that 259 gave him as he replied softly, "No, Brother Wukong. I want to stay here with you until Brother Wukong no longer needs to be under the mountain."

Monkey King laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Are you sure you want to stay here with me? I don't even know when I'll be able to come out. Maybe I'll have to stay here forever."

Cheng Mu didn't want to see Monkey King's expression like that. He took the blanket that he prepared for Monkey King, which was also provided by 259's friendship, and covered his exposed arms with it so that he wouldn't be cold.

"Brother Wukong, I believe that you'll be able to come out. If you really want to stay here forever, then I'll stay by your side. Don't worry, I won't go back on my words."

The comfortable warmth from the person in front of him and the sincere words from the person in front of him warmed Monkey King's cold heart. He looked at Cheng Mu and said firmly, "You said it yourself. If one day you dare to leave me without permission, then even if I have to destroy your cultivation and cut off your wings, I won't let you go."

When Cheng Mu heard Goku's words, he didn't feel the slightest bit of fear in his heart. Instead, he was extremely happy. He unconsciously softened his voice and said coquettishly, "Then Brother Goku, you can't drive me away, and you can't hate me."

Monkey King smiled, "I won't chase you away or hate you, as long as you're obedient."

Cheng Mu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll definitely listen to Brother Wukong."

To Cheng Mu himself, he was originally an intelligent mimosa in the sky. If it wasn't for the help of his benefactor, he wouldn't have been able to transform into a human so quickly. Moreover, in this world, he didn't have any family or friends like the humans in the sky. In his world, there was only his benefactor.

It was the same for Monkey King. From the time he was born to when he wreaked havoc in heaven, it was all because of loneliness. Now that he had someone who treated him so well and wouldn't leave him, Monkey King's lonely heart began to warm up. However, this was only for Cheng Mu alone.
