I steal from the heavens

Chapter 122 Stealing the Lamp

Not far from the Jingtan Temple, Xiaoyu stopped suddenly, "It's too bad, Chen Xiang. My sister didn't follow."

Ding Xiang turned pale with fright, she shouted: "She must be haunted by the pig demon, let's go quickly."

Chen Xiang knew that with Xiaoyu's character, she would never leave her relatives behind and escape alone.He could only grit his teeth, "Let's go back and save Miss Xiaocui."

The four returned to the Jingtan Temple, but when they arrived, Li Gu and Zhu Bajie were chatting happily, and there was no sign of a fight.

Seeing the four people came back, Li Gu pointed at them with a smile, "Please look, envoy, it's them."

Zhu Bajie smiled all over his face, and looked at the four of Chen Xiang respectively. "What the benefactor just said, is it true?"

Li Gu nodded, "Of course it is true."

Zhu Bajie patted his stomach and agreed, "Then, the poor monk will accept the four of them."

Xiaoyu walked to Li Gu's side and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what's the matter?"

Seeing that they didn't understand the situation, Li Gu smiled at Chen Xiang: "Chen Xiang, I have already found a master for you. This one is Zhu Bajie, the former Marshal of the Canopy and now the altar purifier of Buddhism."

Afraid that everyone has never heard of Zhu Bajie's name, he added, "He is the junior brother of Sun Wukong who defeated the Buddha..."

After Chen Xiang and the others listened, they immediately stared at Zhu Bajie eagerly, and knelt on the ground to ask for a teacher.

"Hey, don't be in a hurry to ask for a teacher." Li Gu walked in front of them and said, "Xiaoyu and I don't need to be a teacher. But according to the agreement, we will stay with you during your studies here. However, there is another Require."

Now Chen Xiang just wants to learn a skill as soon as possible and rescue his mother, nothing else matters. "What request? I can agree to it."

Li Gu waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with you. For the sake of our sisters, the envoy of the altar will accept you as a disciple, don't worry. As for Ao Chun and Ding Xiang... Ding Xiang, if you want to stay, you can accompany Zhu Bajie After a hundred years, he will consider accepting you as a disciple."

Ding Xiang shouted in disbelief: "Me? Accompany him for 100 years?"

"Why such a big reaction?" Li Gu stared at her, "It's only natural for an apprentice to serve the master! Besides, he is a monk, so he can't do anything to you. Are you afraid of losing money?"

Ding Xiang expressed reluctance all over her face, "But, I... he... If you all finish your studies, you will all leave. How can I stay here by myself."

Li Gu dialed, "Chen Xiang has a heavy responsibility, so he must be here for a while. But Ao Chun is very free, you can let him stay with you."

"Me?" Ao Chun looked surprised, but secretly happy in his heart.

Li Gu ignored him, and continued to say to Ding Xiang: "If you really don't want to, go home. However, I can tell you clearly. Zhu Bajie, although he is not the opponent of Erlang God Yang Jian, but his strength is not too big. Weak, just teach you a few tricks, you can live forever and become a fairy instantly!"

Ding Xiang still hesitated, "Then if I become a teacher, will I have to go home and become a nun? Then can I go back to see my mother?"

Knowing that she was shaken, Li Gu smiled lightly and said, "You don't need to be a nun. As for your mother, she can come and see you."

"Alright then." Ding Xiang nodded in agreement.That's right, she suffered so much and almost died.Isn't it just to follow Chen Xiang, worship a god as a master, and learn the magic of immortals?

Now the opportunity is in front of her eyes, how can she not seize it.

Li Gu walked up to the smiling Zhu Bajie, and said in a low voice, "I left you alone, and the rest will depend on your own ability."

Zhu Bajie smiled stupidly, "The benefactor misunderstood. The poor monk is a monk, but he just has a heart for beauty. Just look at it, just look at it."

Since his journey to the west, he has been appointed as the Envoy of the Purification Altar, and has been living alone in this temple.Occasionally, I would go to my master, Zhan Tan Gongde Buddha, or my brothers to sit for a while.He is lonely!
Thinking about it this way, it's not bad to have a few young apprentices, and the Jingtan Temple can be more lively.

This is the process in the original book, it's just that Li Gu pushed the boat along and sped up the pace a little.

"It's just that Chen Xiang's background is troublesome." Zhu Bajie said with a bitter face.

Li Gu resorted to aggressive tactics, "What's wrong? Could it be that the envoy is afraid of Yang Jian? If the envoy is unwilling, we will leave..."

"Oh, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid." Zhu Bajie said in a hurry.

Li Gu said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'll ask the envoy." He turned his head and shouted to Chen Xiang and the others: "You guys, come here to learn from me."

Chen Xiang happily pulled Ao Chun and Ding Xiang to kneel on the ground, "Meet Master."

"Okay, okay, three apprentices... Hey, where's your sister?" Zhu Bajie counted the number of people and asked suspiciously.

Chen Xiang also looked around, "Strange, where is Xiaoyu?"

Li Gu knew that Xiaoyu had been called away by Xiao Mengqi's grandmother pretending to be her.Now is the time for her to cover for it, "Don't panic. She's helping me with some errands and will be back later."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.Continue to complete the apprenticeship ceremony and kowtow to offer tea.

Li Gu watched this scene with satisfaction, and thought in his heart: "Xiaoyu, I have created for you the environment of stealing the wick in the original book. It's time for you to act..."

........................

After waiting until very late, Xiaoyu returned to the Jingtan Temple in a daze.

Seeing that she can come back, the others can rest assured.Now men and women sleep in separate rooms. Chen Xiang and Ao Chun live in the meditation room on the east side, while Li Gu, Xiaoyu and Ding Xiang live in the meditation room on the west side.As for Zhu Bajie, he slept in the big Zen room where they stayed the night before.

After parting from Chen Xiang and Ao Chun, the three girls returned to their meditation room.

Xiaoyu looked at Li Gu hesitantly, his appearance was really uncomfortable.

"Dingxiang, you go to sleep first. Our sisters are going for a walk." Li Gu said hello to Dingxiang, and then walked out of the Zen room with Xiaoyu.

After walking all the way to the gate of the Jingtan Temple, Li Gucai asked, "What's wrong? You've been in a daze since you came back?"

Xiaoyu sat on the steps, and said very dejectedly: "Sister, grandma told me something about you. She also told me to discuss everything with you... Sister, grandma wants me to steal the wick of the lotus lantern , and said that if she didn't steal it, she would come and kill Chen Xiang."

Li Gu sat beside her and comforted her: "Sister, grandma has already told me about this. You, tell me the truth, do you like that kid?"

Xiaoyu nodded shyly, and at the same time said worriedly: "What to do, sister. If I don't steal the wick of the Lotus Lantern, grandma will not let Chen Xiang go. But if I steal it, Chen Xiang will hate it." I'm dead."

Li Gu smiled disapprovingly: "Sister, you are wrong. You should steal the wick and give it to me. In that way, I will have ten thousand years of mana. Not only can I kill the enemy Sun Wukong, but I can also fight against Erlang God." protect Chen Xiang and help rescue his mother. Why not do it?"

"But……"

"Don't be so. Do you think that if Chen Xiang masters the Lotus Lantern in the future and becomes stronger, will he help us avenge our personal revenge? No! Because his mother Sanshengmu is an old acquaintance with Monkey King. Do you understand? Sister." Li Gu bewitched the innocent Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu thought for a while, and felt that what Li Gu said made sense. "Sister, will you really help Chen Xiang? Will you save his mother?"

"Of course. Silly girl, he is my brother-in-law." Li Gu fondly rubbed Xiaoyu's head.
