"You must have heard of his story..."

"Some people say that he helped Tang Seng obtain the true scriptures and sealed the Battle of the Buddha... From then on, he stayed in Lingshan."

"Some people also say..."

"That person who became a Buddha was not him at all."

"The real him... has long died on the way westward!"

"Someone said..."

The old monkey spread his feet and sat on the stone platform casually, waving his hands, "Journey to the West... has never happened."

"He was just a storyteller, a... monkey!"

"Oh."

"hehe……"

"But you must have never heard of the story I want to tell..."

"This story starts with a golden cicada."

The cave is a little dim.

The old monkey sat on the stone platform, hanging his head and twisting Buddhist beads, with thin and old, white bearded bald head.

Offstage.

A group of monkeys scratched their ears and looked around, but were attracted by the story of the old monkey and couldn't help but prick up their ears.

The beginning of the story starts with a monkey who learned the art of change on Huaguo Mountain and changed into a golden cicada.

This sounds completely different from the general Journey to the West story.

It’s a pity that the monkey is naughty. After listening for a while, a monkey could not control his stubbornness in his heart and scratched his head.

Sparsely Langlang stood up and walked out of the cave.

A group of monkey heads jumped up and down the stone wall, shouting boredom.

After a while, all the monkeys were exposed.

"I've finished speaking again..."

In the corner of the cave, a golden monkey slowly opened her eyes and looked at the dim old monkey under the dim light.

"Old monkey..."

"Great Sage?" Sun Fan shouted tentatively.

"Huh~~"

“Hululu~~~~”

A familiar snoring sounded.

Sun Fan shook his head helplessly.

This old monkey... fell asleep again!

This is the ninth time he has heard an old monkey tell a story.

It was a past event that happened in Huaguo Mountain, a curious and naughty golden monkey caught cicadas every day and gradually learned to change the art of cicadas.

But every time it only talks for a long time, it gets so tired that it falls asleep...

It is said that monkeys in the mountains are all legendary. I heard that the old monkey can learn magical powers and magic when telling stories. Although no one has gained anything yet, Sun Fan firmly believes that this old monkey is not ordinary!

Because he is a time traveler.

Since I traveled here, I have become a golden monkey.

At first, Sun Fan saw that he was wearing golden retrievers and heard that this place was called "Huaguoshan". He thought that his future would be the Monkey King who was rebellious and bold in calling the world to overturn the world.

I thought to myself that since I became a monkey, I would be a monkey with peace of mind.

He even thought about how to fight against that established fate in the future.

Until one day, I met an old monkey wearing a monk's robes in a cave in the back mountain.

He only realized that Journey to the West...had happened a long time ago!

He realized that this place was not a Huaguo Mountain at all!

Many years ago, Huaguo Mountain was destroyed, the monkeys lost their homes, had no place to live, and were driven away by various demons... They became a group of wild monkeys that were not even in their homes!

Whenever they go to a place, they call it "Huaguoshan", as if they are a kind of faith.

And here is just a fire that was once burned by a fire - Black Wind Mountain.

There is a place 1,200 miles east of Heifeng Mountain, known as Yingchoujian.

Sun Fan only knows this for the time being.

As for who the old monkey in the monk's robe is, and in the follow-up of his story... Where did the Monkey King, who was once a powerful figure, stepped on the sky and was not afraid of the earth?

He didn't know and didn't have the chance to ask.

Every time the old monkey finished telling a story, he sat tiredly on the stone platform and fell asleep.

Day after day, year after year.

He always repeats a story that only talks about the beginning and never communicates with other monkeys.

"What happened after Journey to the West..."

Sun Fan walked out of the cave, looked up at the sky, and sighed inexplicably.

In addition to his desire for magical powers and magic, he actually wanted to know what happened after Journey to the West five hundred years ago. Huaguo Mountain, the hometown of Monkey King, was actually destroyed...

What kind of scene is the heavenly court and Lingshan today?

Leaving the cave, Sun Fan jumped lightly onto the treetops and climbed the trees. Soon after, in an open space, he encountered an old monkey with patches and a strong figure.

One of the two monkey elders in Huaguoshan - Elder Tongbei.

It is said that he is over 200 years old!

"Golden Monkey, come and practice stick again!" Elder Tongbei laughed happily, with a kind face.

In the open space behind the monkey elder, a large group of monkeys and grandsons were scrambling to practice with branches and wooden sticks, and they were in full swing.

This is the simple martial arts training ground in the current "Huaguo Mountain".

"Hello, Elder Tongbei!" After Sun Fan nodded and said hello, he searched for a wooden stick alone, and practiced the stick technique passed down from generation to generation in Huaguo Mountain in the corner - the Spirit Monkey Stick Technique.

The stick dances with dragons and snakes, and there are many afterimages.

The wooden stick was in Sun Fan's hand, rolling like a wind wheel.

After a while, the shadows of the stick disappeared from his hand, but the long stick was still moving. One stick broke through the air and hit the air, as if the iron was hitting the solid, making a dull sound.

Suddenly I felt a look at him.

Sun Fan paused in his hand, and the tip of his stick was fixed in the air, and a harsh sound of breaking the wind was made.

"Okay, okay, it's only seven days before. You have practiced the Spirit Monkey Stick Technique to great success. It's really talented, so good!"

Elder Tongbei walked over with a smile, with an admiration on his face.

"Thank you for your guidance from the elders." Sun Fan stood with his stick, with no trace of lust on his face.

I have traveled through time until now, without a system or a golden finger, and everything depends on my own hard work. It is indeed not easy for him to practice the Monkey Stick Art to a great success in just one month.

But Sun Fan knew very well that this was a mythical world full of gods and Buddhas and demons everywhere. Cultivating a shallow martial arts is not enough to make him proud.

"The Spirit Monkey Stick Technique has been completed. Can you practice the Spirit Monkey Strategy?" Sun Fan asked.

"It's all right." The elder Tongbei nodded with a smile.

"A monkey-body is good at agility and good at opening up the orifices."

"It is in line with the human body and is sensitive to the human body."

"The six senses of eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind are trapped. Monkeys are born with nature and are self-purified without tranquility..."

"Human body is heavenly wisdom, monkey body is self-spirited..."

"... Finally, my heart is restored, and the six thieves are gone."

Sun Fan sat down with his eyes closed and carefully realized the passages of "The Monkey Skill" orally told by the elder Tongming. For a moment, he felt that it was extremely profound and fell into a state of not understanding, not understanding, not understanding.

I suddenly felt countless sudden enlightenment and fell into boundless confusion.

It's because he was not only a monkey, but also a man.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind.

"The mind is back to the right, and the six thieves are gone. So that's what it means!"

As soon as a thought arose, a dark moon seemed to rise in the center of my mind.

It seemed that countless forces emerged out of thin air in the limbs and were like earthworms, rushing into my mind like a zombie.
