Sun Wukong, with the help of Meng Po, broke free from the seal of the Judge's pen and prepared to go find the King of Hell for an explanation. The King of Hell was flipping through the files, suddenly became serious, and bowed to the void, saying, "Yanluo understands." Sun Wukong stealthily entered the Hell Palace. As soon as he entered, a beam of light from a Yin-Yang mirror in the Hell Palace shone on Wukong.
Sun Wukong was greatly surprised to find that his invisibility spell was directly broken by the reflection of the Yin-Yang Mirror, revealing his true form.
"Hahaha, what brings the celestial being here?"
King of Hell waved his sleeve, and the light of the Yin-Yang Mirror immediately disappeared.
"It's strange, these eccentric things didn't exist a thousand years ago. How come this time in the Underworld, it feels much stronger than a thousand years ago?" Sun Wukong's eyes kept moving, feeling that the Underworld was full of mystery. "Immortal?"
King of Hell saw that Sun Wukong did not respond, so he asked again, "Ah? King of Hell, I ask you, why did you throw the monkey from Flower Fruit Mountain into Yin Mountain?" Sun Wukong came to his senses and, seeing that King of Hell was more approachable, asked about the purpose of his visit.
King of Hell seemed to have known the purpose of Sun Wukong's visit long ago, sighed, and said, "The celestial being may not know that regarding this matter of the monkey from Flower Fruit Mountain, it is not our Underworld doing, but a request from the one in Yin Mountain."
" Yin Mountain? Could it be Ksitigarbha?"
Sun Wukong had a thought and spoke up.
King of Hell nodded and said, "The monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain are different from those elsewhere. They have once consumed elixirs and fruits of immortality, and have already given birth to their primordial spirits. If they were to be allowed to reincarnate, they would all enter the immortal path in their next lives. Therefore, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has cast them into the Yin Mountain, where they will never be able to be reborn."
"Ksitigarbha..."
Sun Wukong was so angry that he gritted his teeth and immediately wanted to settle the score with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
"Immortal, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is a great power in Buddhism. Although he is at the level of Bodhisattva, his strength may not be weaker than that of Buddha. When he speaks, how can my underworld dare not comply? Therefore, in this matter, I am also powerless," said the King of Hell when he saw that Sun Wukong wanted to find Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
"What? King Ksitigarbha is actually so powerful?"
Sun Wukong was quite surprised to hear that King Ksitigarbha could be compared to Buddha. In Sun Wukong's impression, King Ksitigarbha has always been a kind and gentle old monk, and his mount, the divine beast Diting, is very timid. When Sun Wukong fought with the false Monkey King, he had asked Diting to distinguish between the real and the fake, but Diting, although clearly able to tell the difference, dared not speak up. Therefore, Sun Wukong concluded that King Ksitigarbha's strength should not be strong. However, the words of the King of Hell made Sun Wukong confused.
The King of Hell nodded and said with respect, "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is indeed a quasi-saintly strong individual, who single-handedly suppressed Yin Mountain, which can be said to be immeasurable merit."
After experiencing the Ling Shan Incident, Sun Wukong's personality has become much more cautious. Seeing King of Hell praising King Ksitigarbha's strength, he realizes that he had underestimated him before. However, when he thinks about the souls of the dead monkeys from Flower Fruit Mountain suffering in the Yin Mountain, Sun Wukong feels extremely restless.
King of Hell strokes his beard and says, "Immortal, with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva guarding the Yin Mountain, the Yin Mountain are as solid as a golden soup, and outsiders cannot enter, so the evil spirits inside naturally cannot come out."
"King Ksitigarbha..."
King of Hell's words made Sun Wukong ponder. The only obstacle for him to enter Yin Mountain is King Ksitigarbha. If he can find a way to lure King Ksitigarbha out of Yin Mountain, then he can enter and rescue the monkeys and Monkey Sun inside, right?
"This matter requires careful consideration," Sun Wukong thought to himself. King Ksitigarbha had made a great vow that he would not become a Buddha until hell is empty. He had been sitting in Yin Mountain for thousands of years, never moving. It would be very difficult to lure him out of Yin Mountain.
"Thank you, King Yama. I know what to do now."
Sun Wukong calculated and realized that he had been in the Underworld for almost two hours, and it was time to return to the world of the living.
*Swoosh*
Sun Wukong disappeared, and the smile on King of Hell's face instantly disappeared, becoming imposing and awe-inspiring without anger.
"I didn't expect it, Tathagata is so calculating. It's a pity, it's a pity. Provoking Subhuti, it seems that Buddhism is in trouble this time."
A strange smile appeared at the corner of King of Hell's mouth. At this moment, King of Hell no longer had the humble appearance he had when Sun Wukong was present.
Naihe Bridge Before, Meng Po is still boiling Meng Po Soup, as if this pot of soup contains some extraordinary avenue.
"Meng Po, my friend."
A compassionate old monk walks slowly towards Meng Po with a step of golden lotus.
Meng Po smiled slightly and said, "So it's Ksitigarbha. What brings you to my place?" It turns out that this old monk is none other than Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who has just quelled the rebellion in the Yin Mountain. King Ksitigarbha put his palms together, recited the Buddha's name, and said, "Amitabha, Meng Po, I just noticed someone sneaking into the Underworld and was about to investigate when I was injured by you. I ask that you give this monk an explanation."
"Explanation? Ksitigarbha, this is Lethe, I'm Meng Po, do I need to explain myself to anyone?"
Meng Po's lips curled into a mocking smile, as if she didn't care at all about angering King Ksitigarbha.
King Ksitigarbha seemed to be very wary of Meng Po. Seeing her speak like this, he was momentarily at a loss for words, and his aura slowly approached Meng Po.
Meng Po smiled faintly and said, "So it's Ksitigarbha. What brings you to my place?" It turns out that this old monk is none other than Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who has just quelled the rebellion in the Yin Mountain. King Ksitigarbha put his palms together, chanted the Buddha's name, and said, "Namo Amitabha, Meng Po, I just sensed that someone had infiltrated the Underworld and was about to investigate when I was injured by you. I ask that you give this monk an explanation."
"Explanation? Ksitigarbha, this is Lethe, do I, Meng Po, need to explain myself to anyone?" Meng Po's lips curled into a mocking smile, as if she didn't care at all about angering King Ksitigarbha. King Ksitigarbha seemed to be very wary of Meng Po. Upon hearing her words, he seemed momentarily at a loss for words, and his aura fluctuated involuntarily.
Meng Po stirred the soup in the cauldron and said, "Ksitigarbha, it's not easy for you to condense a clone. Leave now."
"Friend, take care of yourself."
King Ksitigarbha hesitated, but ultimately didn't dare to confront Meng Po. In the eyes of outsiders, Meng Po was just a deity feeding the souls with Meng Po Soup at the Naihe Bridge. However, King Ksitigarbha knew that Meng Po's origins were far more than that. She seemed to be an incarnation of an ancient and powerful being, with a significant status. If she were to be provoked, the entire influence of Buddhism in the Underworld would likely suffer immense losses.
Meng Po ignored King Ksitigarbha, who sighed and then disappeared. Sun Wukong was unaware of everything that happened in the Underworld. He returned to the Water Curtain Cave feeling gloomy. By this time, dawn had already broken, and some of the little monkeys had discovered that Grimace had passed away. They couldn't help but show expressions of panic. "Ancestor has died."
"Ancestors... "
More and more monkeys were awakened, they moved Grimace's body, and the whole monkey group became restless. Grimace had long been a pillar of Water Curtain Cave, and his death caused great panic among all the monkeys in Water Curtain Cave.
"You... bury Grimace properly. From now on, I will protect you all. In the future, Flower Fruit Mountain will still be the territory of our monkey tribe."
Sun Wukong took a deep breath and said to the panicked the monkeys, then he looked around Flower Fruit Mountain and activated his magical powers, shouting, "I am the king of Flower Fruit Mountain Water Curtain Cave. All demon kings, come and pay your respects. If you hesitate, you will bear the consequences."
