The river monster never thought about parting ways amicably.
He had been looking for the Imperial Master for twenty years and had been waiting for twenty years, but the result was that the Imperial Master had changed his mind.
This outcome was more painful to him than killing him, so he exploded desperately!
Outside the barrier, the huge Forgotten River was stirring up huge waves under his control, and the water was madly poured into the barrier through the barrier gate.
In the prison, Sun Wukong, sensing something was amiss, engaged in a fierce battle with the River Monster. However, his physical condition, which was a 50-50 match for anyone he fought, prevented him from ending the fight quickly. Even after Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing joined in, he was unable to subdue the River Monster for a while.
"Are you okay?" Qin Yao jumped off the white dragon horse and reached out to support the pale king.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy from the spinning," the king responded.
"A catastrophe, a catastrophe!" A yellow parchment appeared out of nowhere and shouted, "The Forgotten River is madly flowing back into the Kingdom of Women. Countless lands are being submerged. At this rate, it will reach the imperial palace in half an incense stick of time at the latest."
"Oh no!" Sun Wukong's expression changed, and he shouted at the river monster, "Are you going to use the entire Kingdom of Women to vent your anger?"
The river monster didn't answer, and its body suddenly turned into a huge water column, shredding everything in its path into pieces.
Sun Wukong's golden cudgel swept across the water column, but passed through it directly. The next moment, the entire sky prison was shaking under the attack of the water column.
"Let's go." Qin Yao grabbed the king's arm and quickly took her out of the prison.
"boom."
Not long after, the entire sky prison building was shattered by the impact of the water. The frightened yellow paper jumped directly onto Qin Yao, hiding in his monk's robe and trembling.
"All this is because of you." The river monster stared at the pale-faced imperial teacher not far away, his face full of brutality. Suddenly, he raised his head and roared to the sky. Endless waves immediately rushed over with countless people from the Kingdom of Women.
"No, no!" Looking at this scene, the national teacher screamed miserably.
Qin Yao's cheeks twitched. He resisted the urge to use time reversal. He sat cross-legged and said, "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Xuanzang requests an audience! No matter what, the subjects of the Kingdom of Women are innocent. They shouldn't die like this..."
Instead of using time reversal, which was not Xuanzang's magical power and would be exposed as a flaw, he, who was familiar with the plot, had a better idea!
"Swish~~"
In an instant, a huge white lotus emerged from the sea, freezing time and space, and also freezing the rebellious river monster, but it did not restrict the people traveling west and the Queen of the Kingdom of Women.
"Xuanzang, how do you know I am here?" As a white light descended, Guanyin, who looked like a beautiful middle-aged woman, appeared on the lotus platform.
Qin Yao clasped his hands together, and his body emitted Buddha light: "Because I am an extraterritorial demon, I am particularly sensitive to Buddha, and I can faintly feel the breath of Bodhisattva."
"What?!!!"
The knowledgeable Guanyin was dumbfounded.
Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing opened their eyes wide and were stunned.
Qin Yao said, "Your Highness, I was originally a demon from outside the realm. One day, I woke up and became a parasite on Xuanzang. At first, I was terrified and at a loss. Gradually, after adapting, I decided to take things one step at a time. As I walked, I came here. Now, seeing the river monster causing chaos and flooding the Kingdom of Women, I feel pity. No matter whose fault it is, these ordinary people should not pay for their mistakes. So, I summoned you."
Guanyin was still confused.
After a long moment, she said with a complicated expression, "Why do you want to self-destruct? I'm not afraid of your ridicule. I don't see that you are a demon. You can just carry on as Xuanzang."
Qin Yao said, "How unfair this is to Xuanzang."
Guanyin: “…”
Is this the way a demon should think?
etc……
After waking up, she suddenly discovered the Buddha's light on Xuanzang.
"Are you sure you are a demon from outside the domain?" Guanyin couldn't help but ask.
Qin Yao said: "The demons are just my race, but I have never done anything evil and I have a kind heart. I stole Xuanzang's body and during that time I couldn't help but steal his potential. This is already excessive enough. If I continue, my conscience will be uneasy."
The devil has a conscience...
This is something I have never seen before.
Even Guanyin didn't know how to evaluate this demon for a moment.
"Buddha, I don't care about what he did." Suddenly, a voice came from Xuanzang's body.
"Xuanzang?" Guanyin asked.
"It's me."
A white-robed soul shone brightly within the ancestral orifice between Xuanzang's eyebrows. It smiled and said, "He stole my body, but he didn't dig deep into my soul to find it and destroy it. This shows that he is different from ordinary demons. He didn't take the initiative to steal my body. Otherwise, the first thing he would do is to replace it.
Secondly, I saw everything he did. His only sin was stealing some of my spiritual power from my past life. I have no use for it in this life, so I could give it all to him.
Finally, when he was willing to summon you for the sake of the people of this Kingdom of Women, he had already redeemed the sin of stealing. Therefore, I beg the Bodhisattva not to harm his life."
Guanyin was speechless for a moment.
After a full hundred breaths, she let out a long breath: "You, the victim, have already pleaded for him, what else can I say?"
Hearing this, Qin Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This situation was not part of his original plan, but it was the reward for his kindness.
If he had intended to take Xuanzang's soul from the beginning, and Xuanzang didn't have Stockholm syndrome, how could he have pleaded for him in the end?
"Please, Bodhisattva, cast a spell to pull me out of Xuanzang's body." Soon, Qin Yao bowed deeply.
Guanyin nodded, and a drop of water popped out from her hand and flew straight towards Xuanzang's body.
In a blink of an eye, the water droplets hit Xuanzang's head, knocking a soul backwards, but the next moment, the soul was sucked back by an inexplicable suction force.
"Huh?"
Guanyin was surprised and tried again, but still failed to drive the soul away.
"I understand." Guanyin now finally believed that this demon was not a parasite on its own initiative.
He had no strength to contend with himself.
"What do you understand?" Qin Yao asked.
"It was Heaven that sent you here. Perhaps this is also one of Xuanzang's tribulations," Guanyin explained. "And it's the most dangerous one. Wukong can see other demons and monsters with his flaming eyes, but he's completely blind to you. If you develop any greed while possessing Xuanzang, Xuanzang will be in real danger, and no one can save him."
Qin Yao: “…”
You really can imagine it.
But... I like it.
"What should we do now?" Zhen Xuanzang asked in the sea of consciousness.
Guanyin thought for a moment and said, "I have a solution that is not a solution."
Xuanzang: "What method?"
"Give birth to him." said Guanyin.
Qin Yao and Xuanzang: "Ah?"
Guanyin: "There is a spring of water in the Kingdom of Daughters that can form a baby. If you drink a sip of this water, the essence of your flesh and blood will condense into a baby. Then let his spirit enter the baby's soulless body and deliver it by caesarean section."
They both responded: “…”
This is outrageous.
The three disciples were also dumbfounded.
Qin Yao said: "How about you call on the Buddha and see if the Buddha can pull me out?"
"Okay." Guanyin nodded slightly and recited the mantra.
Soon, a golden Buddha's shadow gradually solidified in the air, and a loud voice was heard: "What's wrong, Guanyin?"
Guanyin bowed slightly and explained the cause and effect of the matter in detail.
This outrageous plot even stunned Tathagata.
I didn't just shake my head after hearing this, I was really stunned!
The incarnation of magical power was confused in the Kingdom of Women, and the real body was confused in the Great Leiyin Temple, and he was speechless for a long time.
"Please, Buddha, take action and drive the demon out of Xuanzang's body." Finally, Guanyin expressed her request.
Tathagata finally woke up because of this sentence. After a moment of silence, he said, "You, a demon, do have quite the Buddha nature."
Qin Yao said: "Thank you for the praise, Buddha."
Tathagata made a seal with his hands and pointed at Qin Yao.
The next moment, as a force of Buddha hit Xuanzang, Qin Yao's soul was immediately knocked out and suspended in the air.
"Thank you, Buddha." Qin Yao bowed in mid-air.
Tathagata looked at him deeply and asked, "What's your name?"
Qin Yao: "My name is Yao."
"Yao, are you willing to become a Buddhist?"
Tathagata said: "If you are willing, you can become my disciple."
Hearing this, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing all looked at Qin Yao with envy.
Being able to become a disciple of Tathagata is truly a step to heaven.
You know, judging from Xuanzang's generation, these three brothers are all disciples of Tathagata.
"Thank you, Buddha, for your kindness." Qin Yao did not answer directly. After responding, he turned his head and looked at the King of the Kingdom of Women: "Are you disappointed?"
The king shook his head, knowing what he was talking about, and smiled: "Not disappointed. It starts with the appearance, and is loyal to the soul."
Qin Yao smiled, turned around and bowed deeply to the Buddha: "How can I achieve both in this world? I will not let down the Tathagata and you. I know clearly how precious the Buddha's disciples are, but I cannot let down a young girl's most sincere and pure feelings."
Upon hearing this, the look the Queen of the Kingdom of Women gave him suddenly changed substantially.
If the previous one could only be considered affection, then the emotion at this moment is called love.
Tathagata said, "But she is destined to live only a hundred years. This was predetermined before you appeared. If you try to change her fate, the heavens will destroy you along with it."
Qin Yao smiled faintly and said, "When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it is better than countless things in the world. I believe that the best love is not eternal love, but lifelong love. In this life, I will accompany her until we grow old together, and repay her kindness."
"A foolish man and a resentful woman." Tathagata shook his head, and his body suddenly turned into light and dispersed.
"Thank you, Buddha." Qin Yao bowed deeply.
"A hundred years later, if you see through love and want to become a monk, you can come to the South China Sea to find me at any time." Guanyin said with a smile.
"Thank you, Buddha." Qin Yao thanked again.
Guanyin nodded, took out a round fish tank, turned the mouth of the tank downwards, and aimed it at the river monster.
A suction force was suddenly released from the fish tank, sucking the river monster and the endless flood it brought into the fish tank, turning it into a tank of clear water and a silver fish.
"Yao, we will meet again later." Guanyin said.
"See you later." Qin Yao said silently in his heart.
After a while, as Guanyin left, the people who were swept by the flood lay on the ground, and then stood up one after another with confused expressions.
Xuanzang looked at the figure in front of him, stepped onto the white dragon horse, clasped his fists and said, "See you later."
"Thank you, if it weren't for you helping me..." Qin Yao said.
Xuanzang waved his hand, smiling, and gently shook the reins: "Go."
"Master, wait for me." The monkey flew up and shouted loudly.
"Okay, okay." Zhu Bajie looked at Qin Yao, then at the Queen of the Kingdom of Women, and said, "I will come to see you again in the future."
Qin Yao said: "I will introduce you to some beautiful girls when the time comes."
"Really?" Zhu Bajie's eyes lit up instantly.
"Idiot, stop talking nonsense." Sun Wukong suddenly turned his head and said.
"Wait for me, wait for me to come back." Zhu Bahuan pointed at Qin Yao and then chased after him.
Sha Wujing stayed behind and said to the two of them, "I'll leave Shasha to you two."
Qin Yao: "Don't worry... by the time you come back, she should have grown into a young girl."
Sha Wujing bowed deeply, then left, looking back every few steps.
"It's finally over. It's all like a dream." Watching their figures gradually going away, the Queen of the Kingdom of Women let out a long sigh, and a bright smile bloomed on her little face.
Qin Yao stretched out his hand towards her: "Let's go."
Under the gaze of countless women, including the national teacher, the king placed his hand in his palm and followed him, slowly leaving the place.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?" asked the imperial teacher worriedly.
"Let's go to the palace! I'll trouble the Queen Mother to take care of the aftermath here." The king said without turning his head.
Imperial Master: “…”
"You chose me and gave up the chance to become a Buddha. Will you really not regret it?"
Half a month later, on the wedding day, the king, dressed in a red wedding dress, looked at the man in front of him and asked softly.
Qin Yao shook his head: "I can't become a Buddha."
Practicing Buddhist techniques is one thing, but if he really becomes a Buddha, it would be difficult to explain himself when he returns to the main world...
The king was unaware of this and was deeply moved: "My husband."
Qin Yao returned the greeting: "Madam."
"You should address him as Your Majesty," said a female official.
"Get out," the king said to her.
The spring night is short and the sun rises high. From now on, the king will no longer attend court early...
Sixteen years later.
A girl with light blue skin squatted in the imperial garden, watching a nest of ants working together to transport supplies. When they finally delivered the apple core to the doorstep, she reached out and picked up the core. Looking at the ants running around in circles, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Shasha." Suddenly, a voice came from outside the imperial garden.
"Uncle Yao." The girl returned the remaining core to the group of little ants, suddenly stood up from the ground, jumping and waving.
At the gate covered with morning glories, Qin Yao waved and said, "Come here quickly. I'll introduce someone to you."
Beside him, a heroic Arhat with blue skin and eyes like copper bells looked ahead nervously. Gradually, a beautiful girl with lively steps appeared in his field of vision.
