I transmigrated into Journey to the West and became its destined protagonist, Sun Wukong.
I thought I’d still spend my life as a puppet on strings, but from the start I awakened the Journey to the West Slacker System. As long as I slacked off, I’d grow stronger.
And so Sun Wukong’s whole vibe changed. He stopped leaving the mountain, stopped seeking the Dao, and gave up on the journey west.
Guanyin Bodhisattva: “I’m begging you, get off that mountain already! Do you have no desire to cultivate the Dao at all?”
Sun Wukong: “Why cultivate the Dao? Wouldn’t it be better to stay here on the mountain and slack off?”
The Jade Emperor of Heaven: “What’s so great about being Bimawen? Don’t you want to be the Great Sage Equal to Heaven?”
Sun Wukong: “Why be a Great Sage? There’s no job better suited to slacking off than Bimawen.”
Tathagata Buddha: “With a monkey this lazy, how are you supposed to accompany Tang Sanzang on his journey to retrieve the scriptures?”
Sun Wukong: “I’ve slacked my way into sagehood. What scriptures would I need to retrieve?”
