Chapter 135: The Divine Monkey King's Dream of Sorrow

After the Emperor Taishang responded to the re-refining of the Nine-Toothed Rake, Lao Zhu and Lan'er happily bid farewell to him. Lao Jun saw that one of them was going to rush back to Journey to the West to obtain scriptures, while the other wanted to return to the world to repay his biological parents with filial piety, so he did not try to keep him.

After Lao Zhu and Lan'er came out of Tushita Palace, they did not leave the Heavenly Court immediately, but went to the mansion of Ou Yezi, the imperial founder of the Heavenly Court. It was because the Emperor Taishang said that it would take three days to refine the nine-toothed rake this time. One day in the sky and one year underground, which means that Lao Zhu would have to wait three years to get the nine-toothed rake. There were many demons on the way to Journey to the West, so Lao Zhu could not resist the enemy empty-handed in these three years, so he thought of Ou Yezi to build a nine-toothed rake to temporarily recharge the number.

Speaking of which, Ou Yezi is not simple. He was originally a founder in the world. Legend has it that when Ou Yezi casts his sword, the mountain of Chijin broke out, and copper came out of Ruoye's stream dried up. The rain master swept, Thunder drums were thunder, dragons held the furnace, and the Emperor of Heaven was equipped with charcoal; Taiyi, the spirit of the sky was under the spirit. Ou Yezi took the spirit of heaven and earth and casted three big, two small, five-mouth magic swords: one is Zhanlu, two is Chunjun, three is Shengxie, four is Fish Intestine, and five is Juque.

Of course, Ou Yezi is just a founder on earth, so naturally it is impossible for the gods in heaven to help him cast swords. Those legends were just made by the people on earth to praise Ou Yezi's exquisite casting skills and exaggerate their words. However, this also indirectly shows how high Ou Yezi's skill is.

It was because of his mastery of casting skills that Ou Yezi realized the method of urging spiritual cultivation in the process of casting divine weapons, and finally entered the Tao with his skills and ascended to become an immortal. After hearing about Ou Yezi's deeds, the Jade Emperor was surprised and met him in person. After seeing Ou Yezi's forging skills with his own eyes, he enthroned Ou Yezi as the imperial casting master, specifically for casting divine weapons for the Heavenly Court. In the past, when Marshal Tianpeng was not yet guilty and was demoted, he had dealt with Ou Yezi. Therefore, Lao Zhu wanted to forge a temporary divine weapon, so he thought of Ou Yezi.

After Lao Zhu came to the door to make a request, Ou Yezi did not refuse. After all, Lao Zhu was once Marshal Tianpeng. Although he had been demoted now, he had countless old friends in the Heavenly Court and had a wide connection, which was not something he could afford to offend, even though he opened a furnace and cast a rake for Lao Zhu, he integrated the many magic weapons and materials provided by Lao Zhu, and carefully forged a nine-toothed rake that was almost exactly the same as Lao Zhu's original rake.

Due to the limitations of refining materials and Ou Yezi's cultivation level, this nine-toothed rake has not been promoted to the spiritual treasure, and can only be regarded as the best magic weapon. However, the tough texture is definitely not inferior to that of ordinary spiritual treasures. It weighs more than 9,000 kilograms, which is a bit heavier than the original nine-toothed rake. Because the nine-toothed rakes account for the largest proportion of the casting materials of the nine-toothed rakes, it is named the Black Iron Nine-Tyed Rakes.

Lao Zhu was very satisfied after getting the Nine-Tooth Rake of Black Iron. After all, what he provided was not rare treasures of heaven and earth. It was just magic weapons he seized from the enemy in previous battles and some Nine-Heavenly Irons. It was not easy to cast a magic weapon of this level. Moreover, it was just a temporary substitute, so there was no need to be too picky.

After the casting of the nine-toothed rake of black iron, Lao Zhu immediately said goodbye to Ou Yezi, left the heaven with Lan'er, and returned to Gaolaozhuang's house in Fuling Mountain. He had a beautiful meal cooked by Lan'er in Gaolaozhuang, and stayed at home for one night, and had a night of fun with Lan'er. The next morning, Lao Zhu stood up and said goodbye to Lan'er, "Lan'er, it's time for me to leave."

Lan'er stood up and packed up Lao Zhu's clothes, and said warmly and politely: "Little Pig, I won't keep you anymore, but you must be careful on the way to obtain the scriptures and don't let me worry about you."

"Madam, I understand." Old Zhu stretched out his fleshy big hand and gently stroked Lan'er Ruyu's cheeks. Then he refused to let go. He turned around and used the magical powers of the world to travel through the void.

The next moment, Lao Zhu's figure appeared above Baihu Ridge. He glanced down and found that the place where Tang Seng and others were, Lao Zhu turned into a stream of light and flew into the mountains below and landed in front of Tang Seng and others.

"Bajie, you are back. I thought you would take the opportunity to go back to Gaolaozhuang to have a few days together with my brother and sister. Why did you come back so soon?" Sun Wukong's eyes were the first to see Lao Zhu and greeted him.

Hearing Sun Wukong's greeting, Tang Seng and Sha Seng also turned their eyes away from other places. When they saw Lao Zhu coming back, they also said hello and said, "Bajie, you are back."

"Second Brother, you are back, have the weapons been repaired?"

"I went to the Heavenly Court to ask the imperial forging master Ou Yezi to help me rebuild a nine-toothed rake. Because my heart was suspended and the cause of obtaining scriptures, I rushed back without stopping as soon as I built it." Lao Zhu answered the questions of the three of them, and then said, "Master, Brother Monkey, Junior Brother Sha, how are you? Have you been cured of your injuries?"

Sun Wukong shook his arm and smiled and said, "Bajie, your healing elixir is far worse than the golden elixir of Taishang Laojun. Fortunately, Lao Sun is strong and has strong self-healing ability. Now he has recovered. Even if the tiger soul comes back, Lao Sun will dare to gesture with it again."

Compared to Sun Wukong's cheap and good-looking, Sha Seng seemed much more kind. He thanked him honestly: "Second Brother, thanks to the healing pill you gave me, my injuries have basically recovered now."

"Brother Monkey, listen to the words of Junior Brother Sha, that's also called a saying. It's not like you, you're still behaved when you get a cheaper one. According to your opinion, the elixirs given to you by Lao Zhu are not as good as sugar beans? If that's true, next time you are injured, rely on your strong body to hold on. Let me leave this elixir for myself, so I won't bother you." Lao Zhu said to Sun Wukong angrily.

"Don't interfere?" Sun Wukong smiled quickly and said with apologies: "Bajie, you know that no matter what monsters and ghosts you encounter, Lao Sun, I have always been charging forward. This gun has no eyes and is inevitable to be injured. Although your pill is not as effective as the Golden Pill of Taishang Laojun, it is still effective. When you take a few pills when you are injured, you will suffer less, right?"

"Hmph, this is still a human word."

Tang Sengdao: "Bajie, Wukong and Wujing's injuries have been almost healed. I have been resting completely in the past two days. I just don't know how your injuries are? Is it better?"

Lao Zhu smiled and said, "Master, you don't have to worry. My old Zhu's body is no worse than that of my senior brother. Now he has recovered almost the same."

Tang Sengdao: "Since everyone's bodies have recovered, the sun is rising again, and there is still a whole day before the sunset is dark. It would be a pity that it would be wasted like this. Why don't we go on the road now."

"Okay, I'll listen to Master." Lao Zhu was the first to raise his hand to agree.

"Okay, Master said we'll set off now." Sun Wukong turned over and got up from the ground, jumping and untied the reins of the white dragon horse tied to the big tree next to him.

Sha Seng said "um" and packed up the luggage load and picked it up.

Tang Seng took the reins from Sun Wukong's hand, turned over the horse, and the four masters and apprentices set off again and rushed towards the west.

However, the four masters and apprentices were hungry, thirsty, and they stayed overnight. After walking for a few days, they had not seen their house for a whole day, so they had to sleep in the woods. After sleeping all night, it was early in the morning, and a trace of fish belly was just revealed in the east. Sun Wukong, who was originally lying under the tree, suddenly shouted and woke up from his sleep.

Tang Monk, Lao Zhu and Sha Seng were all awakened immediately. Lao Zhu said angrily: "Die Monkey, why are you crazy in the early morning? Let's sleep well and don't sleep. What's your sudden name? If you encounter a bad heart, you will be scared to death."

Tang Seng also said, "Wukong, it's not a big deal about Bajie saying that you, what did you shout early this morning? He scared his master."

Unexpectedly, Sun Wukong, who had always been unreasonable, did not argue with Lao Zhu, but his eyes turned red and seemed to be about to cry.

On weekdays, Sun Wukong was rebellious and fought bravely and showed off his might. Never saw Sun Wukong crying like this? So when he saw Sun Wukong's expression, Tang Monk, Lao Zhu and Sha Monk were all shocked. Tang Monk hurriedly asked with concern: "Wukong, what's wrong with you? Why are you so sad and sad suddenly?"

Sun Wukong choked and said with a sob: "Master, I have been uneasy these days. After sleeping last night, I suddenly had a dream. In my dream, I turned back to the Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng, Shenzhou, Haidongaolai Country, but found that there were no flowers and plants on the mountain, the trees were scorched, the peaks and rocks collapsed and the water flowed dry up, and it was a desolate and dilapidated scene. I finally found some of the children and grandchildren under my former command, but I heard them say that since Lao Sun raised the flag and failed to turn against the sky and was caught in the Heavenly Court, Huaguo Mountain was burned into a ruined place by a fire.

The men with a lot of holes under my command were either dead or fleeing, and most of them were lost. Not only did the remaining half of them endure hunger, but they were often arrested by greedy hunters. During the capture, those who were killed and injured by hunters were skinned and boned, fryed, cooked and fried, and eaten by people. Those who were captured alive were trained to play with monkey plays for people to enjoy, and were humiliated. Lao Sun, I felt like a knife when I heard this! I screamed in anger in my dream, and then I woke you up.

Tang Seng was the kindest in his heart, and he felt quite uncomfortable when he heard this. He comforted Sun Wukong: "Wukong, you don't have to be too sad. After all, it's just a dream, and you can't think it's true."

Sun Wukong said sadly: "Master, you don't know that we practitioners usually don't dream on weekdays because they are full of energy. But as long as they dream, there must be a reason, and it will never be groundless. Lao Sun, I had such a dream last night for no reason. I am afraid that my children and grandchildren were suffering and asked me for help by dreaming."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he moved his heart and said to Tang Seng: "Master, since Brother Monkey is so worried about his hometown, why don't you give him a fake and let him go back and see it. In this way, if the dream is taken seriously, Brother Monkey will also be able to cast spells and save him. If the dream is not true, Brother Monkey will be at ease after seeing him, and he will come back wholeheartedly to help Master go to the West to obtain scriptures."
