The Fifth Meng, Sun Wukong beneath the Five Elements Mountain

He tore the paper from his chest and focused his gaze; on the paper was written a line of strange golden characters: "Om Mani Padme Hum"

Xiniu Hezhou, Lingshan, Daleiyin Temple

Bicycles are not allowed on the highway. Tang Sen proceeded along the old road, and before long, he exited the urban area of the capital. For 20 years, in order to alleviate his mother's financial burden, he had never traveled. Now, it was his first time leaving the city, and he was surprised to find that the suburbs of the capital were filled with lush green mountains and clear waters, breathtakingly beautiful

Tang Sen, I like you! The girl confessed with all her strength, as the rain fell gently from the sky

The woman held her head high, her long hair parted to the sides, revealing a charming and lovely smile. She appeared to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. Although she was clearly trapped in the cave, there was not a trace of annoyance or anxiety on her face; instead, she exuded a playful spirit, bright as the spring light: "Hmph! Guanyin, don't try to fool me. I, the old monkey, am stuck here because of you Buddhists. Is that old fellow, the Tathagata, still around? Let him come and take a hit from me, the old monkey."

What is this? It looks quite impressive. Just as Tang Sen was about to crumple it up and throw it away, his expression suddenly changed: "Damn, could this be the seal? Since it has already stuck to me, how can it still seal the monster woman down the mountain? This is bad, I need to quickly stick it back to the stone..."

Putting down the bowl of instant noodles in his hand, Tang Sen quietly crawled into the grass, moving towards the direction from which the sound came. Soon, the view before him opened up, and he saw Guanyin floating in mid-air, speaking to the mountain wall.

Tang Sen has already set off on the journey to the West

With his backpack, which he had hurriedly packed overnight, he stepped out the door and climbed onto the "Little White Dragon". Riding through the fine rain, delicate raindrops sprinkled on his face, cool and comfortable. ... Tang Sen did not head directly west; he remembered that a girl would be waiting for him at the bicycle parking lot of the school this morning ...

Then, the gentle and solemn voice of Sister Guanyin resonated: "Wukong, this is where you are mistaken. I came here with good intentions to point you towards a clear path, how can you suspect that I am insulting you? You have been suppressed here for five hundred years; it is time for you to change that rebellious nature of yours."

With Tang Sen's intelligence, he had already understood many things upon hearing this. He shook his hand and crawled out from the grass, thinking: That strange woman down the mountain seems to be the mortal enemy of Miss Ru Lai! There is some kind of seal or something on this mountain that has trapped that strange woman. Tsk tsk, although I am not a suitor, it is clear that she is an enemy, not a friend. If she were to come out, I might really be in danger... I must be careful not to remove that seal or whatever it is.

No, it is not speaking to the mountain wall

The deities and Buddhas of the heavens were overwhelmed with joy and wept, with several even embracing each other and crying uncontrollably. Only Manjushri Bodhisattva sat alone in a corner, shedding silent tears. The pocket money had been completely depleted in the recent shopping spree, and now there remained only fifty cents in the bank account

How could one know if one does not venture out? In the suburbs of the imperial capital, there is surprisingly a mountain shaped remarkably like five fingers. This mountain is exceedingly steep, and Tang Sen had to exert all his strength to ride his bicycle up. Having exhausted all his energy, he had no choice but to stop and take a rest, believing it would be better to have a hearty meal before continuing his journey

Could it be that... the girl from the Tathāgata is extremely ugly, unable to marry at all, and not a single handsome man in the sky is willing to marry her, thus she has no choice but to marry a human? Suddenly, the girl trapped under the mountain burst into a thunderous laugh: "Hahaha, well done, she must not be able to marry, and she must not be able to have children, so the Tathāgata's lineage will be severed... Wahahaha... Old Sun will win without a fight... You actually dare to come and coax me, Old Sun, to protect the bride? ... Wahahaha... Old Sun will win without a fight... You actually dare to come and coax me, Old Sun, to protect the bride? Just wait and see if I don't smash him flat with a stick!"

Tang Sen felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this. He was just about to seek out Sister Guanyin for a conversation when unexpectedly he encountered her in this desolate mountain. Moreover, he overheard her speaking with another woman about a marriage partner. Could that marriage partner possibly refer to me? It seems I need to eavesdrop a little.

The strange woman smiled at Tang Sen and said: "Thank you, handsome, for rescuing me. My name is Sun Wukong, a resident of Huaguo Mountain in the Aolai Kingdom of the Eastern Victory Divine Continent. In the martial world, I am known as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Five hundred years ago, I was framed by the Tathagata and trapped here. By the way, I heard that someone is heading to the Western Paradise to seek a marriage proposal. Have you seen that guy? The first thing I, Old Sun, will do upon leaving the mountain is to find that person and knock him dead with a stick, so that old fellow Tathagata won't get his wish."

Oh yes, we have succeeded

Suddenly, Bodhisattva Samantabhadra said: "Everyone, do not be too quick to rejoice. Although he has already set off, it is not so easy for him to arrive here. From the imperial capital of the Eastern Victory Divine Continent to our Great Thunder Sound Temple, it is a full eighty thousand miles. To test his true nature, we do not allow him to take an airplane or modern transportation; he must rely on that broken bicycle. How long will it take him to arrive? Along the way, there are countless bandits and mountain spirits, and he could meet his end at any moment"

Which deity or monster would be willing to serve as a bodyguard for mortals? Isn't that just asking for trouble?

"Indeed, please welcome Sister Guanyin..."

They all say... you... you like homebodies because of your mom!" the girl said with a sobbing tone: "Could it be that you are a mama's boy?"

There are profound reasons behind this. Sister Guanyin felt a bit awkward

Just as I was about to bring the noodles to my mouth, suddenly, from afar, a woman's clear voice came from beneath the mountain wall: "Guanyin, you wicked and scheming woman, do not think you can deceive me, old Sun. I have no intention of protecting anyone's bride! I haven't even married myself, so why should I protect others in their pursuit of a wife? This is a great insult to me, old Sun!"

"You nameless woman!" Guanyin was furious: "Since you refuse, then continue to be trapped under the Five Finger Mountain. As long as no one helps you lift the seal, you will not be able to escape even after one hundred million years." After saying this, Guanyin transformed into a beam of golden light and vanished into the horizon

It is indeed correct to go out for a walk

Five hundred years ago, the Tathagata Buddha you were suppressed under was the 9829th generation. During the five hundred years you were trapped under the Five Finger Mountain, the Tathagata had already reincarnated several times. Now it is the turn of the 9835th generation, the reincarnation of the Tathagata, known as "Miss Rulai," who presides over the Great Thunder Sound Temple in the Western Paradise. Guanyin said: "It is easier to resolve enmity than to create it. If you are willing to protect and marry a person to the Western Paradise to wed Miss Rulai, I will let you out from the mountain and allow you to attain your true form... Our Great Thunder Sound Temple has already made arrangements. As long as you complete the task, the position of the Victorious Fighting Buddha will be yours. What do you think?"... Our Great Thunder Sound Temple has already made arrangements. As long as you complete the task, the position of the Victorious Fighting Buddha will be yours. What do you think?"

Tang Sen smiled and waved his hand, saying: "I’m sorry, I only love homebodies..."

In the early morning, fine raindrops were falling from the sky. Tang Sen still got up early, prepared breakfast for his mother, and left a note on the table: "Mom, I have gone on a long journey. I will occasionally call back. Please take good care of yourself and eat and sleep well!"

Just as he was thinking about this, Tang Sen suddenly realized that a piece of paper was stuck to his chest. Where did this paper come from? ... He turned around to look at the bushes where he had just hidden, and it dawned on him: this paper had originally been stuck to a stone in the bushes. He had crawled into the bushes and, after rummaging around, the paper had stuck to him.

She tossed her head, and the several meters of hair danced behind her like a fierce black dragon, reminiscent of the Evil King Enma's Black Dragon Wave from "Yu Yu Hakusho"

As the light and shadow faded, a strange woman appeared before Tang Sen. Only then did he see her clearly: she was less than 1.3 meters tall, with a distinctly loli figure, flat in the front and back, petite and delicate. Her clothes were tattered and worn... The most outrageous thing was her hair, which was incredibly long... trailing behind her for dozens of meters.

Miss Ru finally can get married

Tang Sen rode the "Little White Dragon" bicycle, cycling along the winding old highway

Tang Sen lunged at the stone, attempting to reattach the seal, but it was already too late. A thunderous roar erupted from below the mountainside, shaking the earth and sending rocks flying. The mountainside shattered into fragments. A strange woman trapped beneath the mountain let out a long, triumphant laugh, astonishingly lifting the entire Five Finger Mountain that had been pressing down on her. It soared into the sky, exploding into countless beams of light in mid-air, resembling shattered reflections and flowing light, breathtakingly beautiful

Tang Sen left the highway, circled twice at the mountain top, and found a winding stream. He took out a small pot and stove specifically for donkey trekking from his backpack, filled the pot with water, placed it on the stove, and slowly brought it to a boil. Then he broke the instant noodles into pieces and added them to the pot, gently stirring with stainless steel chopsticks, before adding the seasoning packet... the fragrant aroma of the instant noodles began to waft through the air...

"Haha, of course not, I just have great respect for her." Tang Sen waved his hand gently in the rain and then left the Imperial Capital University without looking back

At the bottom of the cliff, there is a small cave, with an entrance only the size of a dog door. A disheveled woman’s head protrudes from the cave, but her body is stuck inside, making it difficult to see her clearly

... ...

"Pfft!" The girl under the mountain burst into laughter: "Stop trying to fool people here. Why would a woman who is the reincarnation of the Buddha travel thousands of miles to find a human to marry? It's just nonsense!"

Indeed, this is a problem. It seems we need to arrange for a few deities or monsters to act as bodyguards for him

Upon arrival, the girl was indeed there

Of course, we have no way to do that, but the cunning and scheming Guanyin is exceptionally skilled at deception. As long as she takes action, she will surely be able to trick a few naive deities and monsters into protecting Tang Sen
