Laughing in Journey to the West

One Buddha, one old man. "Is it him? Does he look similar?" "It's a bit like it, but it seems like it's not? Why does it seem a bit like..." "Don't worry about whether he looks like him or not. I'll leave this person to you. Let him become a Buddha. Everyone, please take care of him along the way!" "Hey, can you not take care of me? If you don't give others face, you have to give it to yourself." "Leave it all to me to teach him martial arts." "Then what are you going to teach him?" "Look at the seventy-two transformations, the martial arts, the indestructible body, the somersault cloud..." "It's still a bit small, isn't it? Can't you give it to me with all your money?" "We can't let him be too capable. If he's too high and he's higher than you and me, wouldn't that turn the world upside down? Besides, I think he will be lawless in the future and no one will control him." "Hey? Where is your disciple? When we find him, wouldn't it be good to let this kid be your disciple's disciple, and then we can become Buddhas together?" "Yeah, by the way, I still have two good friends. See if you can take them with me..." "Hey, you opened your mouth, I have to think about it." This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
