Chapter 45 Rob the Rich to Help the Poor

"Monkey." Seeing Sun Wukong kneeling on the ground with his head in pain, Li Mu's heart was blocked. He didn't know how to comfort this life and death brother. He hated that he had no strength.

"Wood, Brother Niu, you go. You don't have to worry about my affairs in the future." Sun Wukong was frustrated at this time and looked at Li Mu in frustration, and then at the Bull Demon King. It seems that he has accepted his fate and intends to stay at the foot of the mountain for 500 years.

Li Mu said urgently, "But..."

The monkey thought about it and interrupted Li Mu's words with a smile: "Don't do it, wood. It's not your fault. You don't have to blame yourself. If you have time in the future, just remember to visit my grandson often.

The Bull Demon King came forward and said to the monkey, "Monkey, since Buddha arranged this, there must be his reason. For us demons, 500 years is just a dazzling time, and it will pass quickly. After a few words of comfort, the Bull Demon King left first with the others. Only Li Muchi refused to leave and wanted to spend more time with Sun Wukong.

At this time, the Buddha did not leave, and his golden statue was still suspended high in mid-air. Li Mu happened to have doubts. You might as well ask him, so he flew to him and asked, "Tathao, you claim to know everything. I have a few things to ask you."

The Buddha still said in harmony, "What do you want to ask me?"

Li Mu pointed to the sky angrily and said, "Why did the Jade Emperor want to kill me several times? Will I really be a disaster star of the three worlds? Tell me where I come from and what is it?

Buddha smiled and said "Amitabha" without answering, "If you are really a disaster star in the three worlds, will you tie your hands?"

"Hmm!" Li Mu snorted coldly and his tone became cold: "Everyone has their own right to live. Whether it's good or evil, I will never tie my hands."

"Since you know it, why come and ask me? As you said, everyone has the right to live, so isn't it reasonable for others to kill you for their own survival? Buddha replied lightly, "Li Mu, remember that everything has cause and effect, and everything is doomed. When you find your real self, you will know how to change it.

"True self? Tell me what I am." Li Mu frowned and asked eagerly.

Why do others say that they are not human, not gods or demons? Can they really be demons? Li Mu has guessed in his heart many times, but it will soon be rejected every time. If you are really a demon, there is no reason not to find it. According to the hatred between immortals and demons, Tongyuan Daxian should have killed Li Mu early instead of raising him.

Everything, Li Mu hopes to find a satisfactory answer in the Buddha.

But the Buddha shook his head and said, "I don't know your identity. I only know that you don't belong to the three worlds and are not among the six sentient beings. But there are many such creatures, and I don't know exactly which category you belong to. Or you are a creature I have never seen before, and it is very possible.

"You don't know," Li Mu was stunned, and even the so-called ubiquitous Buddha didn't know his identity. Li Mu was a little frustrated. But at least I have affirmed that although I am not in the three worlds and six paths, I am definitely not a so-called disaster star.

Tathagata ignored the contemplative Li Mu, but prepared to cast a spell to merge the two peaks. At this time, the monkey didn't know which corner he was hiding in, and quietly did not fight for the last light.

Li Mu hurriedly blocked the Buddha and pleaded gently, "Tathagata, since the monkey promised to stay for five hundred years, you can't let him spend five hundred years in the dark. All anger is born from the darkness. Do you want him to accumulate 500 years of resentment?

The Buddha smiled and stepped back and said, "Okay, leave him some freedom." The Buddha gave a Buddha's name, and the Buddha's palm emitted a circle of golden light to reintegrate the broken mountain. Near the mountain, leave three small holes for the monkey to drill out of his head and hands. After doing this, the Buddha raised his big buttocks, the lotus seat turned and disappeared into the sky, and the sky returned to the blue sky and white clouds.

Although the Buddha gave back, the monkey could never leave half a step. But at least you can reach out to pick the wild fruit outside and drink the nectar outside with your mouth open. This is much better than before. The monkey took Li Mu's hand with joy and thanked him repeatedly.

"How about Huaguo Mountain?" After a few words of joy, the monkey asked about Huaguo Mountain.

Li Mu couldn't bear to hide it. According to the truth, the monkey was gloomy after hearing this.

"Where's Xiaolian? Has she gone back yet? The monkey continued to ask.

Thinking of the gentle woman like water, Sun Wukong was a little anxious. She was the first girl she loved, but she hurt her greatly because of her waywardness.

"I'm sorry, monkey, I didn't find her, but don't worry, even if I look for all three worlds, I will find her for you." Li Mu had some apologies, but he couldn't bear to tell Sun Wukong that Bailian might die.

"Ai." The monkey sighed, "Let it go. I'm trapped here now. What if I find it? Will she stay here with me for 500 years?"

The five elements mountain has regained its appearance, the vegetation grows, the edges and stones are clear, and the mountain road is clear. But the pain brought to the people around can't be healed. Li Mu came down from Wuxing Mountain and walked in the nearby village, feeling sad.

Some families died and their bodies were still placed on the mourning hall; some houses were destroyed, and the remaining belongings had nowhere to be placed; some lay quietly on the street, but they had been choked for a long time, presumably a poor person without relatives. No one went to collect his body and took the most indifferent look when he passed by. When such a mess and demons are rampant, ordinary people can't even take care of themselves, and who will have the energy to take care of others?

Li Mu, who has been influenced by Taoism since he was a child, is a little guilty. He intends to do something to make up for the affected people. After thinking about it, only money is what they need most. However, Li Mu is now penniless, so he has to be a gentleman on Liang and do a job of robbing the rich and helping the poor.

The richest and least affected people in the county are Hu Youwei, the county magistrate, and the local snake. That night, Li Mu entered the two families and used the five spirit transportation to move most of their property cash out, and scattered silver from door to door.

"Uncle, what are you doing?" Just as a poor family was hiding money, a childish voice with a trace of sleepiness suddenly came from behind them. Li Mu turned around and saw a little girl rubbing her eyes with her little fleshy hands, and her eyes were full of doubts.

When the little girl saw Li Mu's face, she suddenly woke up a lot and shouted in surprise, "Ah, it's a fairy uncle!" This shout woke her parents up.

At this time, Li Mu was holding a bag of silver in his hand and lifting the cabinet with one hand. He couldn't figure out whether he was stealing or putting it. Fortunately, this family is honest, and there can't be so much money at home.

"My benefactor, what are you?" The man sat up and asked puzzledly.

Li Mu doesn't know why they called themselves be benefactors. He doesn't remember saving them when he first came to Wuxing Mountain a year ago.

Since it has been found, Li Mu stopped sneaking around and put the bag of silver on the table and said, "Today, because we have made the whole county suffer, I really sorry. I don't know what can make up for you, so I have to send some money. I hope it will be helpful to you.

The man was stunned. A cow died in their family and fell down a room. Compared with others, the loss was relatively small. Look at the silver on the table. At least a hundred taels, which is enough to buy ten cows and ten rooms. The family was immediately grateful. The man quickly pulled his wife and daughter to kneel on the ground and kowtowed to thank him.

Li Mu hurried to help and said apologetically, "Come on, I just don't want to feel guilty." Unable to stay here, Li Mu walked through the wall, leaving a happy and sad family.

For the people affected by the disaster in the county, the sky was slightly bright. Unconsciously, Li Mu was busy all night. Looking at the only 20 taels of silver left, Li Mu did not hesitate to stuff it into his arms as a little reward for doing good deeds.

The crisp chicken song came from afar, and after beating the five drums, people rose one after another.

"There's only so much I can do. What will happen in the future? You can ask for more blessings." Li Mu hid in the morning mist and was not going to see their happy expression after seeing the silver and was ready to leave.
