In the early morning, fine raindrops sprinkled from the sky. Tang Sen still woke up early, made breakfast for his mother, and left a note on the table: "Mom, I'm going on a long journey. I'll call occasionally. Take care of yourself and eat well!"
He put on his backpack, which he had packed the night before, and got on his "Little White Dragon" bicycle, riding into the rain. The fine raindrops felt cool and comfortable on his face. Tang Sen didn't head west directly; he remembered that a girl was waiting for him at the school bicycle parking lot this morning...
When he arrived, the girl was indeed there.
"Tang Sen, I like you!" The girl shouted with all her might, the rain falling around her.
Tang Sen smiled and waved, saying, "Sorry, I only love otakus..."
"They all say... you... you like otakus because of your mom!" The girl said, her voice trembling with tears. "Could it be that you're a mom's boy?"
"Haha, of course not, I just respect her." Tang Sen waved his hand lightly in the rain and then left the capital city without looking back.
Bicycles cannot go on highways, so Tang Sen followed the old road. Soon, he left the city. For 20 years, to reduce his mother's financial burden, he had never traveled outside the city. This was his first time leaving the urban area, and he was surprised to find that the outskirts of the capital were so beautiful, with green mountains and clear waters...
It was indeed a good idea to go out for a walk!
---
In the Western Bull Demon Continent, on Mount Ling, at the Great Thunderclap Temple.
"Tang Sen has set off on his journey to the West!"
"Oh, we've succeeded!"
"Rulai can finally get married!"
The gods and Buddhas were overjoyed, some even hugging and crying. Only Manjushri Bodhisattva was in a corner, shedding tears silently. His pocket money had been completely spent in the recent剁手党 (剁手党 refers to a group of people who buy things impulsively and then regret it, often saying they want to "chop off their hands" to stop themselves from buying more) action, and now he only had 50 cents left in his bank account...
Puxian Bodhisattva suddenly said, "Don't be too happy yet. Although he has set off, it won't be easy for him to get here. From the capital city of the Eastern Victory Continent to our Great Thunderclap Temple, it's a distance of 108,000 miles. We don't allow him to use airplanes or modern transportation, so he has to rely on that old bicycle. How long will it take him to get here? There are countless bandits and demons on the road, and he could die at any moment!"
"That's true, we need to arrange some deities or demons to protect him!"
"Which deity or demon would be willing to protect a mortal? That would be a punishment!"
"We can't do it, but the extremely cunning Guanyin Sister is best at trickery. If she takes the lead, she can certainly trick some foolish deities or demons into protecting Tang Sen!"
"Right, let's invite Guanyin Sister..."
---
Tang Sen was riding his "Little White Dragon" bicycle on the winding old road...
He didn't know that the outskirts of the capital had a small mountain shaped like five fingers. The mountain was very steep, and Tang Sen had a hard time riding his bicycle up it. He used up all his strength and had to stop to rest, thinking it would be better to have a full meal before continuing.
Tang Sen left the road and circled around the top of the mountain, finding a winding stream. He took out a small pot and stove from his backpack, filled the pot with water, and placed it on the stove to boil. He then broke the instant noodles into the pot, stirred them gently with a stainless steel chopstick, and added the seasoning. The aroma of the instant noodles filled the air...
Just as he was about to eat, a clear female voice came from the mountain wall: "Guanyin, you wicked and cunning woman, don't try to trick me, Old Sun! I won't protect any bridegroom! I haven't even found a husband myself, why should I protect someone else's marriage? That's a great insult to me!"
Then, Guanyin's gentle and solemn voice replied, "Wukong, that's not right. I'm trying to help you, so why do you think I'm insulting you? You've been trapped here for 500 years, and it's time to change your stubborn personality."
Tang Sen, hearing this, felt a sudden urge to find Guanyin and ask her some questions. He didn't expect to meet her in this desolate mountain and hear her talking about a bridegroom. Could this bridegroom be me? I should eavesdrop.
Putting down his bowl of instant noodles, Tang Sen quietly crawled into the grass and moved towards the source of the voice. Soon, the view opened up, and he saw Guanyin floating in the air, talking to the mountain wall.
No, she wasn't talking to the mountain wall.
At the bottom of the mountain wall, there was a small cave, with an entrance as small as a dog hole. A woman's head, with disheveled hair, was sticking out of the cave, but her body was stuck inside, making it hard to see clearly...
The woman's head was raised, her long hair parted on both sides, revealing a cute and mischievous face, looking about 17 or 18 years old. Despite being stuck in the cave, she didn't look annoyed or anxious; instead, she looked playful and bright, like spring sunshine. "Ha! Guanyin, don't try to trick me. I was trapped here by your Buddhist people. Is the old Buddha still around? Let him taste my staff."
"For the 500 years you've been trapped under the Five-Finger Mountain, the Buddha has already reincarnated several times. Now, the 9,835th reincarnation of the Buddha, 'Rulai,' is in charge of the Great Thunderclap Temple." Guanyin said, "It's easier to resolve enmity than to create it. If you protect the bridegroom and help him marry Rulai, I'll release you from the mountain and let you achieve enlightenment... We've already arranged it. If you complete the task, the title of 'Victorious Fighting Buddha' will be yours. What do you think?"
"Pfft!" The woman under the mountain laughed. "Don't try to fool me. Why would a reincarnation of the Buddha need to find a human to marry? That's nonsense!"
"This... There are deep reasons for it." Guanyin was a bit embarrassed.
"Could it be... Rulai is so ugly that no male deity wants to marry her, so she has to marry a human?" The woman under the mountain laughed loudly. "Hahaha, that's great! Let her not find a husband, let her not have children, and let the Buddha's lineage be cut off... Hahaha... I win without a fight... You actually dare to trick me into protecting the bridegroom? I'll beat him to death with my staff!"
"You wicked woman!" Guanyin was angry. "Since you refuse, you'll stay trapped under the Five-Finger Mountain. No one will help you break the seal, and you'll stay there for another billion years." With that, Guanyin turned into a golden light and disappeared into the sky.
With Tang Sen's intelligence, he understood a lot from what he heard. He shook his hand and crawled out of the grass, thinking: The woman under the mountain is Rulai's enemy! There's a seal on this mountain that keeps her trapped. Although I'm not the bridegroom, she's clearly an enemy, and if she gets out, I might be in danger... I need to be careful not to break the seal.
Just then, Tang Sen noticed a piece of paper stuck to his chest. Where did this come from? He looked back at the grass where he had been hiding and realized: The paper was originally stuck to a stone in the grass. When he crawled into the grass, it stuck to his body...
He pulled the paper off his chest and saw a row of strange golden characters: "Om Mani Padme Hum."
"What's this? It looks pretty powerful." Tang Sen was about to crumple it and throw it away when his face suddenly changed. "Shit, this can't be the seal, can it? If it's already stuck to me, can it still keep the woman under the mountain trapped? I'm doomed, I need to stick it back on the stone quickly..."
Tang Sen lunged at the stone, trying to stick the seal back, but it was too late. A deafening roar came from the bottom of the mountain, the ground shook, and rocks flew everywhere. The mountain wall exploded into fragments, and the woman under the mountain, with a long laugh, lifted the entire Five-Finger Mountain off her body, flying into the sky. The sky was filled with beautiful, shimmering light, like a cascade of broken light, breathtakingly beautiful...
When the light faded, the woman landed in front of Tang Sen. He saw that she was less than 1.3 meters tall, a small girl with a flat chest and a slender body, wearing tattered clothes. Most shockingly, her hair was extremely long, trailing behind her for dozens of meters.
She shook her head, and the long hair behind her moved like a black dragon, making Tang Sen think of the Evil King's Flame Black Dragon Wave from "Yu Yu Hakusho."
The woman smiled at Tang Sen and said, "Thank you, handsome, for saving me. I'm Sun Wukong, from the Eastern Victory Continent's Aolai Kingdom, known as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Five hundred years ago, I was betrayed by the Buddha and trapped here. By the way, I heard there's a bridegroom heading to the West to marry the Buddha. Have you seen him? My first task after getting out is to find him and beat him to death, so the old Buddha doesn't get his wish."
