The dao song was elegant as it transmitted over from the distance, carrying a carefree and unrestrained feeling. It was like the quiet sound of an empty valley, possessing a power that could cleanse one's soul.
Unknowingly, the stone monkey was engrossed in listening. It felt as if there were ten thousand monkeys throbbing in its heart, and it felt unbearably itchy.
Squeak squeak squeak! There must be an immortal here! " It was not very happy in its heart. It scratched its ears and cheeks, revealing its monkey nature. Unable to restrain itself, it ran wildly in the direction of the sound, its pair of golden eyes staring straight ahead.
The mountain path ahead was faintly discernible. It was covered in lush green grass, and a woodcutter was raising his axe to chop firewood. He looked like a farmer, but his attire was extraordinary.
The bamboo hat on his head was made of fresh bamboo shoots, the clothes on his body were made of cotton, the ribbons around his waist were made of silk from the mouth of an old silkworm, the grass shoes on his feet were made of dried sand, the Wootz steel axe in his hand was made of hemp rope, the loosening and chopping of withered trees, displaying his abilities as a woodcutter!
Such a familiar scene caused great waves to surge in Feng Lin's heart.
Had they finally arrived at Fangcun Mountain?
He was very curious.
In the Legend of the Journey to the West, although there weren't many records about the Three Stars Cave on Fangcun Mountain, as the place that taught Sun Wukong his earth-shattering abilities, how could it be underestimated?
What was the secret behind this?
Patriarch Subhuti, as the patriarch of a region, was at least on the same level as Tathagata. Where did these powerful immortals and gods go?
…
All kinds of riddles coiled around his heart like a tangled mess.
This was also the significance of the Mythology Deduction Method. It allowed one to be immersed in it and dream back to ancient times, tracing back to the source and exploring the mysteries of myths and legends.
Feng Lin continued to observe, quietly waiting for the wind to blow.
He looked like a woodcutter, but his appearance and attire were extraordinary.
Golden light flashed wildly in the stone monkey's eyes, and he couldn't control his excitement. He hurriedly rushed forward and kowtowed, saying, "Old immortal! Disciple is starting. "
The woodcutter hurriedly threw away his axe and turned around to return the greeting, "I can't accept it! I can't accept it! I'm just a woodcutter from the countryside, how could I dare to be called a 'deity'? "
The stone monkey said, "You aren't a celestial being, so how can you speak the words of a celestial being? Only an immortal could sing that kind of fairy-like Director's Eye. "
The woodcutter immediately laughed out loud, "I am just an ordinary woodcutter who lives nearby! All of this was taught to me by the immortals! "
When the stone monkey heard this, it said, "There are really immortals here? Where are the deities? "
It scuttled over, looking at its impatient posture. If the woodcutter didn't tell it, it wasn't going to leave today!
Woodcutter smiled and didn't hide anything, "Not far, not far. This mountain was called Mount Lingtai Fangcun. There was a Tri-Star Crescent Cave in the mountain. In the cave, there was a deity called Patriarch Subhuti. The number of disciples the Patriarch had sent out was uncountable, and there were still thirty to forty people cultivating under him. If you follow that small road south for seven or eight li, you will reach his house. "
The stone monkey jumped up and down as it listened, unable to control its excitement.
After wandering the world for dozens of years, he finally heard of a mountain immortal!
It grabbed the woodcutter and couldn't wait to go up the mountain. "Bro, bring me there. If there are any benefits, I won't forget your guidance. "
Woodcutter said with a helpless expression, "Why are you so stubborn! I've already made it clear to you. Go, go! "
After saying that, he forcefully broke free from the monkey's claws and went somewhere else to chop firewood.
The stone monkey could only give up and leave alone.
However, it didn't notice that the woodcutter's smile gradually retracted as he watched it leave. His eyes were filled with a mysterious light.
However, all of this was seen by Feng Lin as he sank into contemplation.
In the Journey to the West, heavenly immortals could be found everywhere, and immortals were inferior to dogs.
Everything seemed to be a coincidence, but things weren't that simple.
The woodcutter wasn't a real woodcutter, but the monkey was a real monkey.
This monkey seemed to have entered the Fangcun Mountain by chance, but there must be a reason behind it.
What kind of character was Patriarch Subhuti?
…
At this moment, the stone monkey didn't notice these. It was as if it could see the bright future of becoming a deity after becoming a disciple. Its face was filled with excitement.
It was like what the woodcutter had said. He walked out of the forest and headed up the mountain. Very soon, a cave abode shrouded in clouds and mist appeared in his sight.
The cave door was tightly shut, and there was no sign of anyone. There was only a stone tablet at the top of the cliff. It was about three feet tall and eight feet wide. There was a row of words on it: "Spirit Fangcun Mountain Crescent Cave".
"That woodcutter really didn't lie to me!" The stone monkey didn't feel happy and leaped over. But before it arrived, it heard a creaking sound and the door opened.
A handsome boy walked out. He wasn't surprised when he saw the stone monkey. He called out loudly, "Are you the one who came to seek the Dao?"
The stone monkey was overjoyed when he heard that. "It's me, it's me."
The boy said, "Come in with me."
The stone monkey tidied up his clothes and followed the boy into the depths of the cave. They passed by many pavilions and buildings, and it was a very interesting scene.
An old man with a long beard sat on the platform. There were thirty little immortals standing on both sides of the platform. They were neither buddhas nor daoists, exuding an aura of emptiness and nature. They had the same lifespan as the heavens, never aging.
He seemed to be near, yet he also seemed to be far away in the clouds. One could only look up and not guess at him.
(Is this Patriarch Subhuti?)
Feng Lin's heart trembled. He seemed to see the faces of all living things on this old man. There were a myriad of changes, but with a single thought, he could change them according to his heart's desire.
What was Fangcun? What was Three Stars? What was Subhuti? …
His heart!
Feng Lin seemed to have understood something. He only felt that the Daoheart Gene on his main body had been completely activated and was raring to go.
The mythological illusion was still evolving. When the stone monkey saw the Patriarch, he immediately kowtowed countless times and said sincerely, "Master! Master! My disciple pays respects with sincerity! Pays respects with sincerity! "
The Patriarch asked, "Where are you from?"
The stone monkey replied, "This disciple is from the East Victory Divine Continent's Aolai Country's Flower Fruit Mountain's Water Curtain Cave."
The Patriarch commanded, "Chase him out! He's a swindler. Why would he cultivate the Dao Fruit?! "
The stone monkey hurriedly kowtowed and said, "This disciple is speaking the truth. There's no falsehood in my words."
The Patriarch said, "Since you're speaking the truth, why did you speak about the East Victory Divine Continent? That place is separated by two seas and one South Continent. How did you manage to get here? "
The stone monkey kowtowed and said, "This disciple has traveled across the seas and ascended to the world. I've only arrived here after traveling for over ten years."
…
"Good, good, good!" After hearing the stone monkey explain his background, the Patriarch Subhuti let out a long laugh. His eyes were extremely deep as he stared at the stone monkey. His gaze changed, as if it was a myriad of transformations, crossing over the long river of time.
Feng Lin's thoughts immediately went blank after being looked at by the Patriarch Subhuti. In an instant, he had the illusion that the Patriarch Subhuti's gaze had seen through the stone monkey's shell and was looking straight at him.
A faint laugh rang out next to his ears. "Since you're a macaque! That's good! You're in the 'Wu' generation among my disciples. Then, I'll give you the name 'Sun Wukong'! "
What was Wukong?
At the beginning of the primordial world, there was no surname. To break through the stubborn emptiness, one had to Wukong!
It was as if divine lightning had split apart the chaos. Feng Lin's heart instantly cleared up, and all his perplexities disappeared. His will became transcendent, breaking free from the illusion and drifting toward the clouds.
…
Boom!
Feng Lin's eyes suddenly opened. It was as if lightning had flashed across the sky, cutting through the darkness.
The mythological genes in his body kept on jumping, completely activated.
Monkey King Gene + 1, + 1, + 1 …
Daoheart Gene + 1, + 1, + 1 …
…
