Chapter 553

Finally, Manjusri Bodhisattva took the lion's body, bid farewell to Wang Fan in auspicious light, and flew straight to Mount Wutai.

Wang Fan packed his luggage with Tang Seng and others, and prepared to continue westward.

Tang Seng went back to Baolin Temple and told the king's soul what happened in the palace in detail. After hearing Tang Seng's account of his revenge, he calmly returned.

The king of the Wuji Kingdom did not come back to life in the end, and the crown prince succeeded him as the king.

The original prince and the current king kept Tang Seng on many occasions, but Tang Seng refused to stay, and gave gold, silver, satin and silk, but Tang Seng refused to accept it. go west.

Living at dawn at night, more than half a month later, a high mountain suddenly appeared in front of me.

Almost like a conditioned reflex, Tang Seng reined in his horse and stopped his whip, calling for Bajie Drifting Monk.

"Apprentice, apprentice!"

"Master, what's the matter?" Zhu Bajie put down his luggage and asked, holding a rake.

"There are big mountains and mountains ahead, I need to be careful, I'm afraid there will be evil spirits coming to harm me." Tang Seng said often, Zhu Bajie felt that his ears were getting callused.

"Master, just walk and don't worry too much. Old Zhu has his own plans." Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha said in unison.

Seeing the impatient faces of the two apprentices, Tang Seng turned his head to look at Wang Fan who had been silent all the time. He wanted to talk to him, but he saw that he was watching his eyes and nose, his nose watching his heart, and he didn't hear the outside world.

Helpless, Tang Seng had no choice but to swallow his words back into his stomach, and continued to drive his horse and whip to the mountain.

This mountain is extremely precipitous, with skyscrapers obstructing the sun, connecting to the blue sky at the top, and leading to the underworld at the bottom. There are white clouds and black mist floating on the top of the mountain, green pines and green bamboos grow in the mountains, and countless apes, deer, deer, tigers and wolves walk through it, which is shocking.

At this moment, a red cloud suddenly rose from the mountain valley, rushed straight into the sky, condensed into a ball of fire, and dyed the entire sky red.

Zhu Bajie was shocked, stepped forward, helped Tang Seng off the horse, and complained: "Master, don't go, you are talking about monsters again!"

Tang Seng was full of bitterness, but he couldn't teach Bajie a lesson, so he could only hide behind Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha.

Just when everyone was vigilant, the red clouds in the sky suddenly cleared, and there was no anger at all.

It seems to have disappeared out of thin air.

"Could it not be a goblin, but just a burning cloud?" Tang Seng waited for a long time, but no monster came to attack him. Looking up, the sky returned to azure blue.

Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha also felt puzzled and couldn't explain why.

Only Wang Fan was slightly taken aback, feeling that the scene in front of him was somewhat familiar.

"Help, help!"

Suddenly there was a voice calling.

"Bajie, Sand Monk, is there someone calling for help in the middle of the mountain?" Tang Seng asked in surprise when he heard the voice.

"No, never." Bajie laughed.

Tang Seng didn't care, and the four continued on their way.

"Help! Help!"

After walking for another mile, there was another voice nearby. Tang Seng showed suspicion on his face and said, "Seng Sha, I seem to really hear the cry for help, did you hear it?"

"I didn't hear the call for help. Master misheard it. I think it was the sound of the mountain wind." Monk Sha said honestly.

Both apprentices said so, Tang Seng had no choice but to move on.

After walking for a few miles, a pine forest suddenly appeared in front of him. On the top of an old pine tree in the pine forest, a naked and naked seven-year-old urchin was hanging, his hands and feet bound by hemp rope, and he was screaming loudly.

"Master, save people!"

When the child saw Tang Seng, his eyes lit up and he was extremely happy.

Tang Seng immediately turned his head and glared at the two apprentices.

Zhu Bajie looked down at the rake in his hand, while Drifting put down his luggage, leaned on Thoreau's staff and wiped his sweat with his head down.

"Which family are you from, and why are you hanging here? Tell the poor monk, so that the poor monk can save you." Tang Seng went up to the tree and asked the child with a whip.

"Master, there is a stream of dry pine trees on the west side of this mountain, and there is a village on the other side of the stream. I am from there. My grandfather's surname is Hong, and he accumulated gold and silver extensively. His family fortune is huge, and his nickname is Hong Million."

"After he passed away at an old age, the family property was left to my father. Because of his extravagant life, the furniture gradually fell into disuse, so the nickname was changed to Hong Shiwan. My father specially made friends with heroes from all walks of life, borrowed gold and silver, and hoped for interest. Knowing that those so-called heroes are all immoral people, they just borrowed but never repaid, and my father got nothing back, so I had to swear a poisonous oath not to borrow any money."

"At first I thought it would be all right, but who knew that those heroes couldn't get a loan, so they simply formed a murderous party, fought openly to rob, killed my house in the daytime, robbed all my family's wealth, killed my father, and abducted my mother to do business. Mrs. Yazhai, she wanted to kill me again, but thanks to my mother’s begging, the thief let me go, but then dropped me on a tree with a rope, and let me freeze and starve to death.”

"Those thieves took my mother to no one knows where. I have been hanging here for three days and three nights, and there is no one. I don't know which life I have accumulated blessings. I met the teacher today. I hope the teacher will be merciful and save me. , I will serve as a pawn and work hard to repay the teacher's kindness."

Ai Ai, who was a child, cried and cried, and talked for a long time before she said the whole thing.

Tang Seng listened carefully for a while, and when he heard "hanging for three days and three nights", he stepped back calmly.

When he finally finished speaking, Tang Seng returned to his original position at some point, and said to the two apprentices: "Oh, apprentice, I was tired from riding a horse, and just now my mind was dizzy and I had hallucinations. You are right, there is indeed no cry for help here." , I misheard!"

Then, Tang Seng rode his horse and walked towards the side of the pine forest, looking like he was going to bypass the pine forest and cross the mountain.

The child became anxious immediately, and struggled desperately on the pine tree, which shook slightly.

"Master, Master, save my life, save my life!"

Tang Seng still couldn't hear it and wanted to leave.

What a joke!
He is not stupid, which child still has enough strength to scream after being hung from a tree for three days and three nights?

Not dying of cold and starvation is not bad.

"Go, go!" Tang Seng urged everyone to leave quickly.

Snapped!
At this moment, something surprising happened.

The rope that was hanging the child suddenly broke, and the child fell heavily under the tree.

Then, he stood up unsteadily, and as soon as he stood firmly, he staggered towards Tang Seng. Tang Seng turned his horse's head and before he could leave, he was driven in front of the horse by the other party, blocking his way.

"Thank you, Elder, for saving your life!" The child knelt down, kowtowed in front of the horse with tears in his eyes.

Tang Seng had a helpless expression on his face.

It's obvious that he didn't do anything just now!

The child ignored Tang Seng's expression and said to himself: "Master, my hands and feet are numb, and my waist and hips are hurting. I hope that Master will let his subordinates carry me for a certain distance. When I arrive at the family's house, I will be rewarded a lot!"

While speaking, his eyes kept staring at Wang Fan.
