Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#2423 - Arrive at Lingyundu

Tang Sanzang and his disciples looked up, and after clearly seeing the figure, the joyful expressions on their faces immediately turned gloomy.

"It's Guanyin!"

Sun Wukong was the first to see clearly and said to Tang Sanzang and the others.

"What is she doing here?"

Although they discovered Guanyin, Tang Sanzang and his disciples still pretended not to see her, only their expressions changed.

It wasn't until Guanyin took the initiative to come to Tang Sanzang and his disciples that they casually greeted her.

"So it's Bodhisattva Guanyin, you are really leisurely," Sun Wukong said to Guanyin.

In fact, Guanyin was not coming on purpose, but was passing by here on her way back to the Western Paradise from the Heavenly Court.

Now that Chu Hao was not around, she took the opportunity to lecture Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

"Tang Sanzang, why are you and your disciples so lax? You are already approaching the foot of Mount Ling.

You should hurry on your way as soon as possible. Wouldn't chatting and laughing while traveling delay your journey?

As key figures in the Journey to the West, you should take the grand plan of the Journey to the West as your own responsibility and always remember your mission."

Guanyin hadn't enjoyed the feeling of reprimanding people for a long time, and now she was deliberately making things difficult for Tang Sanzang and the others.

"Bodhisattva Guanyin, why do you pretend to be ignorant? You say we are lazy and idle, but what about you?

Before, you sent Buddhas from the Western Paradise to pretend to be monsters and block our way, and you also used the Dream Tapir Beast to create dreams to trap us.

You even went so far as to instigate the Demon Clan to capture us. When you add it all up, how much time has this delayed?

Now you are blaming us instead. Since you accuse us of being lazy and idle, then we will be lazy and idle for you to see."

Now that they were approaching the foot of Mount Ling and reaching the end of the Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang and the others were not afraid of offending Guanyin.

"Disciples, let's not go. According to what Bodhisattva Guanyin said, let's be lazy and idle here for ten days or half a month," Tang Sanzang then turned to Sun Wukong and the other two and said.

"Master, ten days or half a month is not enough. I think at least a year or half a year."

"The scenery here is good, and the climate is pleasant. How about we build a wooden house and live here for a few years?"

"Whenever we are happy, we will continue to walk. It depends on our mood."

Sun Wukong and the other two immediately echoed Tang Sanzang.

Hearing what Tang Sanzang and his disciples said, Guanyin's face immediately turned ugly. She had wanted to take advantage of Chu Hao's absence to put on airs in front of Tang Sanzang and the others.

She didn't expect that Tang Sanzang and the others were not afraid of her at all now, which was a bit of a mess.

Now that the Western Paradise had completed its layout, Buddha Tathagata naturally hoped that Tang Sanzang and the others would reach Lingyun Ferry as soon as possible.

If Tang Sanzang and the others really stopped here, how could Buddha Tathagata give up? When the time came, if he found out that Guanyin had angered Tang Sanzang and the others, how could he let her go?

"Tang Sanzang, it was a slip of the tongue on my part. Don't be angry. I am also thinking of you, so that you can complete the grand plan of the Journey to the West as soon as possible and achieve enlightenment, isn't that right?"

"Even if I was wrong, even if I wronged you, you should still hurry to the west."

Guanyin had no choice but to put down her face and apologize to Tang Sanzang and the others, but she felt unspeakable anger in her heart.

In the past, how could Tang Sanzang and the others dare to be rude to her? Now, she was asking Tang Sanzang and the others to go west instead.

"Since Bodhisattva Guanyin said so, we won't argue with you, but we really can't walk anymore.

The four of us, master and disciples, are all hungry. How can we have the strength to walk without eating our fill?

Therefore, for the sake of the efficiency of the Journey to the West, please Bodhisattva Guanyin go begging for us, so that we can eat our fill first, how about that?"

Tang Sanzang said, taking out the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl and handing it to Guanyin.

Guanyin's face turned green with anger, but she had to endure it, took the Purple-Gold Alms Bowl, and went to beg for Tang Sanzang and the others.

Of course, for Guanyin, she didn't really need to go begging. After all, Mount Ling was already close at hand.

Suppressing her anger, she brought food and drink for Tang Sanzang and the others, letting them eat and drink their fill, and only then did she let them continue on their way.

Guanyin and Chu Hao basically set off from the Heavenly Court at the same time. Chu Hao's speed was much faster than Guanyin's, and he should have arrived before Guanyin.

However, Chu Hao did not come directly to meet Tang Sanzang and the others, but instead went to the Demon Clan.

Since he had reached a cooperation with the Demon Clan and the Monster Clan, then Chu Hao needed to tell the Demon Clan and the Monster Clan the information, both true and false, that Guanyin had said.

"Although Guanyin said so, the Western Paradise must have hidden conspiracies and tricks inside, so I must go and meet Tang Sanzang and the others as soon as possible.

And you, the Demon Clan and the Monster Clan, must also prepare immediately and pay attention to the progress of the Journey to the West at all times," Chu Hao said to Chu Jin and Fei Yi.

"Yes, we will make arrangements immediately," Chu Jin nodded and said.

After explaining the situation to the Demon Clan and the Monster Clan, Chu Hao headed towards Tang Sanzang and the others, and half a day had passed at this time.

Although there were only three days left to Lingyun Ferry, Tang Sanzang and the others deliberately slowed down their pace because they did not see Chu Hao arrive.

Therefore, they had not gone far in half a day.

It was not until Chu Hao arrived that Tang Sanzang and the others resumed their normal journey.

"Immortal Chu Hao, will the final layout of the Western Paradise really be as simple as Guanyin said?" Tang Sanzang asked Chu Hao.

"Of course not. How could the Western Paradise give up the karma of the Journey to the West? This final layout must be the Western Paradise's all-out effort," Chu Hao said to Tang Sanzang and the others with great certainty. This was also a reminder to Tang Sanzang and the others.

The Lingyun Ferry ahead must be a huge trap and conspiracy.

At this time, on Mount Ling, Guanyin was complaining to Buddha Tathagata about Tang Sanzang and their misbehavior.

"Tang Sanzang and his disciples are really getting more and more outrageous. The four of them have already clearly turned their backs on our Western Paradise!" Guanyin said to Buddha Tathagata.

"It doesn't matter. As long as our layout at Lingyun Ferry is successful, Tang Sanzang and the others will obediently be controlled by us, and the karma of the Journey to the West will naturally belong to our Western Paradise," Buddha Tathagata still seemed very confident in his design at Lingyun Ferry.

"But Buddha, there is also Chu Hao. Every time our plan is ruined by Chu Hao," Guanyin reminded Buddha Tathagata. Mentioning Chu Hao, Guanyin hated him to the core.

"Chu Hao, this time our plan will first target Chu Hao. Even if Chu Hao is at Lingyun Ferry, we will crush him to pieces. I will let the Three Realms see what the price of offending our Western Paradise is," Buddha Tathagata said, and killing intent immediately appeared in his eyes when he spoke of Chu Hao.
