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

#1038 - Sun Wukong: I listen to Chu Hao

The more Guanyin Bodhisattva thought about having Sun Wukong take action, and even having to pay him, the more her chest heaved, and she almost burst into tears.

However, seeing Chu Hao's appearance as if he was saying, 'Cry all you want, your tears only make me happier,' Guanyin Bodhisattva silently closed her mouth and resentfully looked at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong glanced at Guanyin Bodhisattva with extreme indifference, showing her no respect whatsoever.

"You old woman, my brother Chu Hao is here. Talk to him about anything. I listen to my brother Chu Hao!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva twitched the corner of her mouth, her face filled with gloom.

However, with Chu Hao present, Guanyin Bodhisattva shrank back again, thinking, 'Forget it, as long as Chu Hao is here, I have no chance to show off in front of Sun Wukong.'

But when she thought about having to give Sun Wukong benefits to get him to rescue Tang Sanzang, Guanyin Bodhisattva was immediately very dissatisfied.

Yet, she couldn't use coercion or enticement, so she could only stare at Sun Wukong and coldly say:

"Sun Wukong, since you came out from under the Five Elements Mountain, you already agreed to protect Tang Sanzang on his journey to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures. Don't you dare break your promise?"

Sun Wukong: "I listen to Chu Hao!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva twitched the corner of her mouth, her forehead covered in black lines, but she still insisted:

"You are the dignified Great Sage Equaling Heaven, such a powerful existence. You should have your own ideas!"

Sun Wukong: "My idea is to listen to Chu Hao."

Guanyin Bodhisattva: "…"

This was just like a rock in the toilet, smelly and hard!

Sun Wukong's face was full of calmness. He was able to take such a long vacation this time, so Chu Hao must have helped him a lot.

Therefore, no matter what, Sun Wukong wanted to repay Chu Hao. Moreover, Guanyin Bodhisattva clearly had bad intentions, so it was better to… listen to Chu Hao; that would definitely be right!

However, the truth was that Sun Wukong's departure was originally part of the plan arranged by the Western Paradise. To complete this part, Guanyin Bodhisattva had even been extorted by Chu Hao once.

And at this moment, just like at that time, Guanyin Bodhisattva was extorted again for no reason in order to let Sun Wukong come back on vacation.

Ah, so fragrant!

Guanyin Bodhisattva looked exasperated, gritting her teeth. She raised her clenched fist halfway, then lowered it, raised it again, and lowered it again.

Finally, in a state of extreme anger, Guanyin Bodhisattva chose to be extremely angry for a moment.

But life still had to go on…

Guanyin Bodhisattva looked at Chu Hao expectantly, her face full of pleading.

"The most compassionate and righteous Emperor…"

Chu Hao suddenly extended a finger, blocking Guanyin Bodhisattva's mouth.

"Be good, you need to be sensible."

"Add money, anything will do."

Guanyin Bodhisattva: "…"

Okay, you're awesome, I admit defeat.

Guanyin Bodhisattva took a deep breath and gritted her teeth as she handed a demon core to Sun Wukong.

"Now, will you obediently go and save his master?"

Sun Wukong closed his eyes.

"Ask Chu Hao, I listen to my brother Chu Hao."

Guanyin Bodhisattva twitched the corner of her mouth, feeling a little incredulous.

Was this Sun Wukong too persevering?

This was a demon core! As long as he accepted this demon core, he could immediately leap forward and have his strength soar!

What kind of will was this? What kind of disregard for wealth was this?

This Sun Wukong really had guts!

Guanyin Bodhisattva originally planned to bribe Sun Wukong at this moment, at least to warm up the relationship with Sun Wukong a little more.

Now, oh ho, there was no chance.

Chu Hao calmly and indifferently looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva from the side, not exposing her, just looking at her like an idiot.

As for Sun Wukong, Chu Hao was clear that this monkey was proud and arrogant. Especially after coming all this way, Sun Wukong already had a number for him.

What he wanted was never to belong to the Western Paradise and become a Buddha. What he wanted was to be the unyielding Great Sage Equaling Heaven!

How could a mere demon core possibly deceive Sun Wukong?

Guanyin Bodhisattva also pretended that the previous awkwardness didn't exist, and handed the demon core to Chu Hao instead, obediently saying:

"Please say a few kind words, Emperor. This mission cannot be delayed."

Chu Hao nodded.

"What you said makes a lot of sense."

"So, you still need to add money."

The smile on Guanyin Bodhisattva's face instantly froze, and a trace of disbelief appeared on her face.

"But, didn't I give you a demon core? A demon core is so precious. Isn't that enough?"

Chu Hao shook his head.

"Not enough is naturally not enough. Look at me, how much am I worth?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva's smile almost collapsed.

"But, a demon core is already, is already…"

Chu Hao waved his hand.

"Hey, the demon core is for hiring Sun Wukong to work, but I have to persuade Sun Wukong to work. Shouldn't I also need a little bit of merit divine water?"

"This matter is very reasonable. Sun Wukong can't work for nothing, and I can't work for nothing either. You're right, aren't you?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was about to cry.

"But Sun Wukong said he listens to you in everything. Isn't this just a matter of your words!"

Chu Hao looked disdainful.

"Why are you such an insensible woman? Whether Sun Wukong listens or not, doesn't that have to be said by me? Then, isn't my speaking also a physical activity?"

"I also have to rack my brains, try every possible means, search my entrails, and look for excuses before I can get Sun Wukong to take action. This is called paying for knowledge, do you understand?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva wanted to curse.

I really want to hammer you to death!

I see that you're racking your brains, trying every possible means, searching your entrails, and looking for excuses to cheat me out of money!

But Chu Hao just looked calm and composed. "Perhaps, you can find someone else more capable."

Guanyin Bodhisattva's teeth ached with anger.

Not to mention whether she could really find someone else more capable, even if she really did, wouldn't she be hammered to death by Chu Hao?

Forget it, forget it!

The sensible Guanyin Bodhisattva finally chose to compromise, and took out 50,000 merit divine water.

"50,000 merit divine water, this is all my wealth. If the Emperor doesn't allow it, I can only go and rescue Tang Sanzang and his disciples myself."

Just consider it as if I dropped 50,000 merit on the side of the road!

Chu Hao frowned, looking at the 50,000 merit divine water with great disdain.

But when he thought that he was only lacking hundreds of thousands of merit to advance to the Third Rank Quasi-Sage, Chu Hao could only sigh.

Forget it, life is not easy, the Prison God sighs.

Chu Hao was ultimately burdened by life, accepting the sugar-coated bullets of the Western Paradise, and doing some very arduous work for the Western Paradise.

Chu Hao helplessly accepted the 50,000 merit divine water and the demon core, and gave Sun Wukong a look.

Sun Wukong's eyes lit up instantly, "Bodhisattva, feel free to order me to do anything!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva was dumbfounded.

So, this is what you call racking your brains, trying every possible means, searching your entrails, and looking for excuses to persuade Sun Wukong?

It was just a look!

Chu Hao: Three sentences, and I got 50,000 merit from Guanyin Bodhisattva!
