Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1513 - Tang Sanzang, we misjudged you

Pigsy grew anxious, "Master, we can't do this! My conscience won't allow it!"

However, Tripitaka took a deep breath, looked up to the sky, and said in a mournful voice:

"Let's go, let's go to the Heavenly Court for verification."

For the sake of his eldest disciple, Tripitaka was willing to go against his conscience and call a stag a horse in front of everyone!

Although, in doing so, Tripitaka would lose all face and even be resented by the Heavenly Court, there was no other way.

Wukong, this master is sorry for you, this master will definitely save you! Even if it means ruining my reputation, even if it means being spurned by everyone, even if it means falling into the Avici Hell!

Tripitaka resolutely turned and left.

Guanyin laughed loudly behind Tripitaka.

"Hahahaha! Tripitaka, so you have this day too! Take a good look, make sure you recognize him properly, don't mistake him!"

Pigsy and Sandy could only dejectedly lead Tripitaka, along with the Six-Eared Macaque, to the Heavenly Court.

......

Heavenly Court, Hall of Universal Brightness.

Guanyin, Tripitaka, and the others had already arrived at the Hall of Universal Brightness.

At this moment, the people in the Hall of Universal Brightness looked at Guanyin's arrogant face, and they obviously felt that something was wrong.

Moreover, the Jade Emperor also sensed the aura of Dipamkara Buddha outside the Southern Gate. He knew very well that Dipamkara Buddha was there to back them up.

The Journey to the West was decided by the Sages, and the Heavenly Court had no way to disobey, so the Heavenly Court was only very passive.

At this moment, the gods of the Heavenly Court, the civil and military officials, stood on both sides.

The Jade Emperor sat on the Hall of Universal Brightness, looked at the crowd below, and said coldly:

"What is the reason for you to disturb the Heavenly Palace and clamor before me, seeking death!"

Tripitaka was about to speak, but the Six-Eared Macaque stood up very domineeringly, snatched the conversation, and said arrogantly:

"I am now converted to the Buddhist faith, and I have been assisted by the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva. I dare not deceive the heavens anymore, only because this Tripitaka is blind and cannot distinguish between the real and the fake, and thinks that I am fake!

Therefore, I hope that Your Majesty will distinguish between the real and the fake, so that this Tripitaka and I can go to the Western Paradise in peace!"

The Jade Emperor frowned, obviously hearing the difference in the way this Sun Wukong spoke.

Moreover, as the strongest person, the Jade Emperor could tell at a glance that this was the Six-Eared Macaque.

It must be said that the Six-Eared Macaque's flattery to the Western Paradise, and his arrogant appearance of being confident and unafraid, made the Jade Emperor want to slap him to death.

However, this was a tribulation that the Western Paradise had long agreed upon with the Heavenly Court, so the Jade Emperor could only follow the plan.

The Jade Emperor said loudly:

"Bring the Demon-Revealing Mirror to see who is real and who is fake, and let the fake be destroyed and the real survive."

Soon, the Fire Virtue Star Lord ran over in a hurry and brought the Demon-Revealing Mirror.

The Demon-Revealing Mirror was in front of him, directly shining on the Six-Eared Macaque, however, the golden circlet and clothes of Sun Wukong in the mirror were exactly the same.

The Six-Eared Macaque chuckled coldly,

"Master, now you should know whether I am real or fake, right? Hurry up and go on the road with your disciple to worship Buddha and seek scriptures in the Western Paradise, that is the right way, don't make trouble here!"

The Jade Emperor was already very unhappy in the hall, but he just said coldly:

"Tripitaka, now that the Demon-Revealing Mirror has been used, but it cannot reveal the truth, with your understanding of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, don't you know the truth?"

The Jade Emperor also specially reminded him of the four words Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong. If the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, was here, how could he be so humble and flattering?

His first sentence should be to call Guanyin Bodhisattva an old chicken!

However, Tripitaka, under the gaze of the gods, could only take a deep breath, hesitating to speak.

Guanyin Bodhisattva coldly reminded:

"Tripitaka, you must distinguish carefully, what is fake must never be made real, what is real must not be falsely accused of being fake!"

Tripitaka gritted his teeth, raised his head, and in front of all the gods, used all his strength to slowly open his mouth and say:

"It's Sun Wukong, it's real."

After Tripitaka finished saying this, he closed his eyes tightly, his eyes glistened with tears, and he even lost all his strength, almost falling down, fortunately he was supported by Pigsy and Sandy.

"The matter decided that year, I think you all remember it? Since Tripitaka said it is real, you should not stop it, otherwise it is a violation of the words of the Sages!"

The Jade Emperor could only swallow his anger, snorted coldly, and said:

"Since it's real, then take Sun Wukong and get out!"

The gods present, including Nezha, looked at Tripitaka with incomparable contempt and disgust.

Some immortals even cursed secretly:

"Tripitaka, I thought you were already a person who was not controlled by the Western Paradise, and full of the concept of freedom and equality, a high monk with his own ideas.

But now it seems that you are just a follower of power, a disciple who calls a stag a horse! I look down on you!"

"With such a Great Sage Equaling Heaven by your side, don't you feel disgusted?"

"If Prison God Chu Hao was here, he would definitely be very disappointed that you are such a person!"

"The Emperor was wrong about you, you are still thinking about the Western Paradise, you have become a running dog of the Western Paradise, calling a stag a horse, not distinguishing between black and white!"

The Jade Emperor waved his hand to stop the scolding of the civil and military officials.

Tripitaka remained silent, closed his eyes tightly, and bowed respectfully to the Jade Emperor three times.

Watching their master being insulted by the civil and military officials in this way, Pigsy and Sandy were extremely aggrieved, and even their lips were trembling.

How much they wanted to open their mouths and scold that the Six-Eared Macaque was fake, that the Western Paradise was forcing them to call a stag a horse like this.

But they can't do this, the real Sun Wukong is still trapped in the Avici Hell, once they don't cooperate, the Western Paradise will definitely make Sun Wukong suffer!

Even Sun Wukong's life may not be saved!

For the first time, they felt so aggrieved and so uncomfortable.

Guanyin Bodhisattva laughed loudly, laughing incomparably triumphantly,

"Hahahaha! Happy, it's really too happy! Everyone, Tripitaka is just telling the truth, you don't have to be so excited."

"Didn't expect you all to have this day too? By the way, are you very curious about where Prison God is? He has already given up on your Heavenly Court, even if he is here, he can only admit that Sun Wukong is real."

The Jade Emperor and the gods gritted their teeth, looking at the smug, arrogant Guanyin Bodhisattva, but they were helpless.

Guanyin Bodhisattva also said triumphantly:

"Although the Heavenly Court has identified it as real, the Heavenly Court is only the Heavenly Court after all, a second-rate force."

"Let's go, let's go to the Avici Hell to find Ksitigarbha, Ksitigarbha will naturally distinguish it for us again!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva led the crowd away triumphantly.

At this moment, the Jade Emperor and the others understood everything. The Western Paradise was probably really going to kill Sun Wukong in person and let the Six-Eared Macaque take over!
