That's all I wanted to say. Do you have any other information to add?
“Yesterday, the heavenly general said that a year later, a truly destined person will come to rescue me. In return, I will protect him on his journey to the West to seek the scriptures. I only need to go back and stay for eleven more months. Otherwise, it will be considered an escape from prison, and 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals will come to hunt me down.”
It has now been confirmed that A-Jiang is not the person Little White Dragon should be waiting for.
Ajahn himself knew what was going on, but the White Dragon...
"So what do you think?"
Ah Jiang seemed to have disturbed the residence of some important people, and he was a little uneasy. He wondered if he should give up on stamping their documents and run away quickly.
“Heh,” he laughed, but his expression was hidden by the mask.
"A destined person will rescue me, and now that I'm out, aren't you my destined person?"
"...Those 100,000 heavenly soldiers?" A-Jiang looked at Sun Wukong.
He made that sound again, without replying.
I seemed to have understood, and I didn't ask any more questions.
He looked at Ajahn with his golden eyes, and the strange patterns on his mask seemed to gleam with a subtle golden light.
"Didn't you say it needed to be stamped? Go ahead and stamp it!"
A-Jiang took out the Bai Ze Seal: "This requires sincerity to succeed."
He nodded, indicating that A-Jiang only needed to stamp it.
Ah Jiang steeled her heart and covered his shoulder with her blanket.
A flash of golden light, and the contract was formed.
'It actually worked!' Ah Jiang exclaimed in surprise.
Then she looked at the little white dragon, whose eyes were full of confusion.
He had no idea what the two people were up to, and the things they were saying were strange.
"you... ..."
Ah Jiang was a little unsure how to ask.
“I’ll get my stamp too! I can go with you and look for him as we go. Or I can wait for him at the foot of Mount Ling, or... or later... In short, I don’t want to go back there and wait for someone who might appear at any time.”
Sun Wukong probably felt the same way, which is why he was unwilling to go back and didn't want to wait even a day longer.
A-Jiang took out the Bai Ze seal and stamped it on him, and it went smoothly as expected.
Having successfully completed his mission in this world, Ajahn is ready to return to his own.
"I'll go back first, then summon you all, and you can experience what it's like."
The two demons nodded, and A-Jiang left with a thought.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in his bedroom in his new house in Tianyu City.
She raised her wrist, revealing a faint golden line on it.
Ajahn Chah stretched out his hands and grabbed at the void, and a golden book appeared. With a thought, Ajahn Chah summoned Sun Wukong and the White Dragon Ao Wu.
Immediately afterwards, two figures appeared beside them.
"Wow, this is amazing!"
The little white dragon looked around, couldn't resist pushing open the door, and flew into the air.
It flew back a moment later and said, "But this is just a small world, and the spiritual energy is too scarce."
Sun Wukong nodded after looking him over.
"According to the rules of this world, the longest we can stay here is half an hour, and we can only exert 30% of our strength."
Ajahn was a little shocked. Was the world he lived in really that bad?
I was quite shocked when I first arrived.
After all, this world is many times larger than the world she lived in before, but it was originally just a small world.
"We can't stay in this world for long. Do you have any other plans? What if we encounter heavenly soldiers chasing us again when we go back?"
The White Dragon looked at Wukong.
Sun Wukong said, "I heard that they originally found a monk to go on the journey to retrieve the scriptures. Now we can go by ourselves. We'll find two more along the way, find them together, and then bring the scriptures back."
Ajahn nodded. "That's an idea."
Since she had nothing better to do anyway, and she wasn't a Buddhist, it didn't matter to her whether she went to the sutra recitation hall or who went. She didn't care at all.
Who knew Sun Wukong would say, "You have to come with us."
Ah Jiang blinked his eyes.
What did you say?
"The pilgrim is a great benevolent man with immortal flesh. There must be a reason for this arrangement. If this factor were missing, we might not have been able to succeed in obtaining the scriptures."
Ah Jiang wanted to curse; how could the story have developed like this?
She's a cultivator, for crying out loud! What's gotten into her thinking that she'd go on a pilgrimage to obtain scriptures?
"First, that monk was a man, and I'm a woman. We're not even in the same department, so why would Buddha recognize me? Second, I'm not a great philanthropist. I just drove my stepmother to her death."
Are these important?
Sun Wukong asked.
The little white dragon looked at Ah Jiang as if it understood but not quite.
"Isn't it important?"
"Whether something is important or not depends not on the thing itself, but on your perspective?"
A-Jiang frowned; she had never heard of such a saying.
"Then you must have read the Tao Te Ching."
Ajahn nodded.
"Existence and non-existence give rise to each other; difficulty and ease complement each other; long and short define each other; high and low incline towards each other; sound and voice harmonize with each other; before and after follow each other. You see, whether something is important or not depends on what you compare it to. All things in the world are born from existence, and existence is born from non-existence. With so many worlds and such a long history, if you put what you consider important into it, is it really important? The world is inherently illusory."
"It sounds reasonable, but it's not practical. I'm not going to seek the scriptures; I don't want to go."
Ah Jiang almost got caught up in Sun Wukong's scheme, but she didn't want to get involved in such a big undertaking.
I refused very bluntly.
Sun Wukong showed no displeasure, nor did he press the matter. He simply said, "Think about it some more. We'll head back now."
Then he turned around and disappeared with the little white dragon.
【Uh? Can summoned beasts return on their own?】
Ajahn was surprised; she hadn't expected this and hadn't tried it before.
If he suddenly doesn't want to continue fighting and wants to go back, there's nothing she can do.
[It seems that even contracts can't completely control demonic beasts; maintaining a good relationship is essential. It's such a waste not to unleash the immense power of Sun Wukong and the White Dragon!]
But I can't actually go on a pilgrimage to the West, can I?
A-Jiang felt conflicted.
The good thing is that there are Pigsy and Sandy to form contracts with, but the bad news is that these two seem to be just there to fill in the numbers, and they'll have to wait for Monkey King to rescue them.
[And there might even be eighty-one tribulations involved, with so many powerful monsters...]
So many monsters?
Ah Jiang's eyes lit up. Along the way, there were all sorts of demonic beasts: green ox spirits, jade rabbit spirits, fox spirits, lion spirits, leopard spirits... If only he could form contracts with a few of them and summon them occasionally to help out...
No, no, no, Ah Jiang shook his head. What was he supposed to do? It was unnecessary, not worth risking his life for those monsters. He could develop safely just by buying spirit beast eggs. Why should he go recklessly?
By the way, I should go check out the Immortal Alliance Market. I haven't participated in a large-scale auction in all these years. Now that I have so much money, I should spend it properly!
