The Reckless Life of Xiexie
Chapter 5
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Sanzang led the horse along the rugged mountain road. Although the journey was not smooth, he was determined. All he wanted to do was to go to the Thunder Temple in the Western Heaven and obtain the Mahayana Buddhist Tripitaka from the Gautama Buddha. He wanted to impart it to the world so that the world could escape from the sea of suffering and save all living beings.
Walking to the mountain stream, he took out the alms bowl bestowed by the Tang Emperor and filled it with water. After drinking it, he sat on a rock and rested for a moment.
At this moment, a peach suddenly appeared in front of him. The peach was pink and looked very tempting.
Following Tao Zi's gaze, he saw a young girl standing in front of him without him noticing. This girl was wearing a red dress and was talking cheerfully. Even the tips of her eyebrows and the corners of her eyes were smiling.
"Are you a monk from the Tang of the East?"
"I, Tang Sanzang, am indeed from the Tang of the East."
"Then are you going to the Western Paradise to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures?"
"This poor monk was ordered by Emperor Tang to go to the Western Paradise to pray to Buddha and seek scriptures."
Between the questions and answers, Xiexie also knew that this was the monk who could save Wukong. She stuffed the peach into his hand and said, "Come with me."
"Miss, men and women should not touch each other. Where are you taking this poor monk?"
Tang Seng was pulled along by the Suspension and ran a few steps. He was already out of breath and accidentally fell to the ground.
Suspension hurriedly helped him up. "Avalokitesvara of the South Sea asked you to save someone here. Come with me quickly."
"Miss, you have to take things one step at a time. If you keep dragging me like this, it will only backfire."
Tang Seng panted heavily. Suspension frowned. She did not know how to take things one step at a time. She only knew that Wukong had been suppressed for 500 years. If she took a few steps faster, she could save Wukong sooner.
But this monk seemed to be stubborn and insisted on taking things one step at a time. Suspension had no choice but to return to Monkey King's side. "Wukong, that monk is only 300 steps away. Wait a little longer."
Sun Wukong was originally anxious in his heart, but at this time, seeing Xie Xie like this, he was not anxious anymore. "Hehehe, I, Old Sun, have been suppressed for five hundred years. I don't mind waiting a little longer. Hahaha.

"Silly!" Seeing her silly smile, Sun Wukong was very disgusted.
"With you by my side, why would I be so smart? Don't you think so, Wukong?"

If he was too shrewd, it would not be easy to fool him.
Of course, Suspension didn't know what Monkey King was thinking. He chuckled. After Wukong came out, they could be together all the time again.
After about two hours, Tang Sanzang slowly came to the foot of the mountain. He saw a stone monkey being pressed down at the foot of the mountain. "This poor monk does not have the technique to move mountains and overturn seas. Secondly, this poor monk does not have a suitable tool to chisel the mountain. How can I save you?"
"Monk, don't worry. You don't need to move the mountains or drain the seas. You don't need to dig out the mountain either. You just need to pick up the Buddhist scroll on the top of the mountain."
Hearing Suspension's words, Tang Seng looked up at the Buddhist invitation at the top of the mountain. "In that case, this poor monk will give it a try."
Suspension used a spell to send Tang Seng to the Buddhist scroll on the top of the mountain. This time, she didn't tell him in advance and directly sent him up. Could he walk down and climb up again?
As expected, Tang Seng didn't come down. He took two steps forward to the Buddhist scroll, read the words on it, and reached out to pick it up. It was easy for him to pick it up.
Sun Wukong moved his muscles and bones, and the Five Finger Mountain instantly began to shake violently. His body was made of iron, and if he didn't have Tathagata's Buddhist Invitation, it would have been a piece of cake for him to move the mountain.
Because of the shaking of the mountain, Tang Seng lost his balance. He staggered two steps and fell on a stone.
Suspension quickly pulled Tang Seng down and put him a little farther away. She shouted, "Wukong, you can come out now."
Boom …
Big stones rolled around and broke into pieces, emitting bursts of white smoke. Monkey King jumped out of the pile of stones, just like when he jumped out of the extraterrestrial stone. This time, it was as if he was reborn a second time.
"Hahahaha, I, Old Sun, am free. Hahaha, free …"
Running in the mountain stream, he wantonly stretched his limbs. After being pressed down for five hundred years, it was time for him to exercise properly.
Hearing his words, she felt a little sad. "Wukong …"
Suspension threw herself into Monkey King's arms. When he ran, she could feel the wind on her face.
She liked this feeling very much. For the past five hundred years, she had been running by herself, riding the wind. The wind blew on her face countless times, but she didn't feel it at all. But now, Wukong was running with her. Even though this speed was far slower than riding the wind, and the wind even hurt a little when it blew on her face, she was happy.
This was the first time in five hundred years that she was so happy.
Tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably. She hugged Monkey King tightly and didn't let go. She hooked her arms around his neck and pressed her face against his, completely ignoring the discomfort of the furry monkey hair on her face.
Her tears wet the Monkey King's fur on his face. Monkey King hugged her and looked at her tear-stained face. "You little vixen, why are you crying again?"
"I'm happy." I'm happy that you're finally free. Without the mountain on you, they can be together again.
Seeing that she was smiling so widely that her eyes couldn't be seen, her eyebrows and the corners of her eyes were still beautiful. "Okay, okay, I, Old Sun, am free. You can be happy in the future. Now, it's time to do some serious things."
Suspension followed Monkey King's gaze and saw a flash of golden light. She quickly chased after it.
Five hundred years ago, King Kong was sent by Tathagata to watch over Monkey King. Although it was said to be watching over, it was also to protect him. Monkey King was suppressed, so he could only use a little of his mana. If the people of Daoism came to seek revenge, Monkey King wouldn't be able to use his supernatural powers.
In order to prevent the people of Eastern Daoism from harming Monkey King, Tathagata sent King Kong. Now that Monkey King was free and was going to follow the Tang Seng to the Western Paradise to retrieve the scriptures, King Kong had to return to the Western Paradise to report on his mission.
But what was he going to say when he returned?
Those copper balls that needed to be fed to Monkey King every day, and her arrival here …
King Kong looked at the unfriendly woman in front of him. Her red dress fluttered in the wind, and she crossed her arms in front of her chest, as if she was a thousand miles away. He couldn't help but exclaim that a beauty was indeed a beauty. She was as cold as ice, but still so beautiful. "Why are you stopping me?"
"I'm just showing you something."
Suspension tilted her head and took out the token given to her by Maitreya Buddha. "This was given to me by my master. Do you recognize it?"
He knew about the token of Donglai Buddha even though his position was low. At the same time, he also knew that if it wasn't given to her by Donglai Buddha personally but was stolen, with the cultivation of this scorpion demon, she would be injured by the Light of Buddha on it.
Furthermore, when he was immobilized by Suspension, he heard her telling Monkey King that she had acknowledged Donglai Buddha as her master. She was now Donglai Buddha's eldest disciple.
"Of course I recognize it."
"My master keeps a low profile. Since I've become his disciple, I should keep a low profile like my master. Others don't know that I'm here, and I don't want anyone to know my whereabouts in the future. Do you understand?"
Vajra nodded and smiled. "There's one more thing. Back then, Tathagata made him eat copper-flavored iron balls every day for the sake of his body. Now, Wukong's body is already made of copper and iron."
"I will report to my Buddha that Sun Wukong has consumed all the Copper Liquid Iron Pills. That's why he has a body of copper and bones of iron."
Suspension nodded satisfactorily and waved him off. When King Kong disappeared into the sky, Suspension jumped twice in the clouds and stopped controlling her facial muscles.
"Hahahaha …"
It felt good to have a backer, hahaha …
She went down and saw Monkey King carrying the horse. Suspension jumped on his back. "Wukong, where are we going now?"
"We're going to Spirited Mountain to find Buddha."
"Spirited Mountain? Then let's go quickly. We'll go back to Mount Huaguo together at night. Those monkeys will be happy to see you."
She wrapped her legs around Sun Wukong's waist and hooked her arms around his neck. She thought that she must eat a few more peaches after returning to Mount Huaguo in a while. She hadn't eaten a proper meal for a long time at the foot of the mountain. There was no meat on her face, and her clothes were also loose. In a while, she would ask Sun Wukong to give her a few more clothes.
However, she didn't see Monkey King's expression because she was behind him. "You can go back by yourself if you want. I, Old Sun, am not going back now."
"Why?" Why not?
Huaguo Mountain was their home to begin with.
"Because we haven't reached Spirited Mountain yet. Even if we go back, we'll have to come back again."
Escorting Tang Sanzang to the west to retrieve the scriptures was not something he could do with just the Somersault Cloud. With the body of a mortal, if he wanted to walk to Mount Numinous, he would have to rely on this horse. It would take him eight to ten years.
She jumped down and looked at Tang Sanzang. She blinked her eyes. She felt a sense of deja vu towards this person, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
However, she couldn't remember. She thought that she might have seen him when she went to Chang 'an to find the monk. That was why she found him familiar.
"Master, let's go quickly. We'll reach Spirited Mountain today. Wukong and I will escort you together. What do you think?"
"Benefactress, you must be joking. Guanyin Bodhisattva told me that the journey from Chang 'an to Leiyin Temple in Lingshan is a hundred and eight thousand miles. How can we arrive today?" Tang Sanzang smiled, looking peaceful.
Suspension suddenly remembered that they were about to reach Spirited Mountain, but he refused to let her go. He even said something like, "We have to take one step at a time." Now he probably refused to ride the cloud with her.
But what should she do?
It was such a long journey. If she really had to take one step at a time, it would take ages.
"Wukong, is there no other way?" She looked at Monkey King. He had always been cautious.
Monkey King's eyes turned and he smiled. "You can try a thousand miles in one step."
"Really?" Suspension's eyes lit up.
A thousand miles in one step. As the name implied, one step could cover a thousand miles with magic. She knew how to use this magic.
