[Journey to the West] The Poor Monk Xuanzang

"Hey! Monster, where are you going!" The monkey picked up the golden cudgel and pointed it at the back of the black-clothed man's head.

The man in black pushed me, turned around and ran away.

I couldn't dodge in time, and I was pushed towards the bonfire by him and ran into it.

The monkey hurriedly supported me, and stomped out the bonfire: "This monster is so cowardly! He ran away in fright when he saw my grandson." The words actually had the meaning of boasting.

This monkey ran out of sight before, but this time he only talked about the monster and never mentioned his own mistakes.

I was so scared that I was covered in cold sweat. Hearing his words now, I felt annoyed. I pushed him away and sneered, "You don't have great abilities. Why can't you subdue such a monster?"

The monkey got angry but didn't like to get angry with me, so he just turned his back to me, looked out of the window and scratched his head ferociously. After a while, it seemed that he still couldn't calm down the anger in his heart, so he picked up the golden cudgel and was about to chase it out. , said in the mouth: "Look, I mishandled his lair!"

"Stop!" I quickly stopped him, "Let's rest today, and we will leave tomorrow, Wukong!" The monkey didn't care at all, its shadow flashed, and it ran away in the clouds.

What a terrible apprentice this is.

I stroked Sanbao's fur, and felt that the whole person had aged a lot. It was also a monkey, but my Sanbao was much cuter.

I sighed, and climbed to fasten the broken door. Although it looked crumbling and couldn't withstand the heavier wind and rain, it was still better than nothing.

The monkey came back in the middle of the night, and he kicked the already crumbling temple door with a loud noise, which made me sit up suddenly. The cold moonlight sprinkled the ground, and the mountain wind howled in. The wind was blowing cold on the face.

I was shivering from the cold, staring in shock and anger at the temple gate that was torn apart and dead on the ground, and looking at the monkey, I really wanted to strangle him to death.

But the bear monkey didn't take it seriously, turned his neck, twisted his body, sat down at my feet, and threw a jade pendant at me.

"The monster couldn't beat me, so it got into the water and disappeared. It refused to come out, but it dropped this thing."

I glanced at him, didn't ask him how he found the monster, and didn't laugh at him anymore. I just got up and lit a candle, and held up the jade pendant to look at the light.

The quality of the jade is not bad, but it’s not that good. It’s just what ordinary wealthy people wear on a daily basis. It’s just that the carving is so exquisite, and the thing the size of the bottom of a cup suddenly brings out a scene of a busy city. Dozens of characters inside are vivid and lifelike.

I couldn't help but think of the female gentleman that the man in black was talking about, so I handed the jade pendant to Wukong and said, "Keep this thing, and he will come to us again."

The monkey giggled, put away his things, and sat at my feet without moving, as if he was going to keep watch.

With a gentle face, I pushed him to the door, picked up the tattered temple door and stuffed it into his arms, and stuffed the monkey and the door panel at the door.

Ah, the size is just right, and sure enough, the wind is much less if the monkey is stuffed here.The monkey stared at me, eyes full of accusations.

I patted his head with a firm heart, and said righteously: "You kicked this gate because of the cause, and now guarding the gate here is the result. It is the law of heaven and ethics that sowing causes will reap consequences."

After the monkey was settled, I blew out the candles, and lay down easily to sleep.

Waking up from a sleepy sleep in the middle of the night, I vaguely saw the monkey obediently holding a broken wooden board blocking the door and not moving. The monkey had no expression on his face, and the cold moonlight shone on him. A little lonely.

Hearing the howling mountain wind outside the window, I suddenly felt distressed and wanted him to come in, but I was too sleepy, and fell asleep in a daze before I could speak.

The next morning we set off.

The sky in the distance is slightly white. I am riding a white horse, and Sanbao is lying on the monkey's shoulder, looking drowsy.

The horse didn't run too slowly, but it couldn't run faster than the monkey. This morning, the plague-stricken monkey was jumping back and forth, left, right, and right beside me, looking so bored that it was about to lose its hair.

He swayed from my left side to my right side again. Sanbao was already awake at this time, squatting on his head scratching his ears and looking around with his big black eyes open. The two monkeys, one big and one small, looked like Quite interesting.

"Master, your horse runs very slowly." The monkey shook his head and sighed.

I looked at him coolly, and couldn't help feeling a bit wicked, and put on a curious expression: "I heard that you once raised horses in Tiangong. Come to think of it, the horse was different from this ordinary horse that day."

"The Bodhisattva even said that?" Monkey obviously felt ashamed, "I'll find him!"

I squinted at him, lightly clamped the horse's belly, and walked straight ahead past him.

The monkey chased after him, and smiled maliciously: "Master, do you want to know how fast the horse was that day?"

Before I could answer anything, the plague-stricken monkey slapped the horse's rump. The horse was frightened and ran away like crazy.

"Wukong!" I hugged the horse's neck and gritted my teeth. Unexpectedly, the mountain wind poured down my throat before I could reprimand him, so I had no choice but to close my mouth tightly.

Sun Wukong stood at the back, looked at my distressed appearance, and laughed wildly. This energetic appearance, which was in need of a beating, did not look like he had just been released from the foot of the Five Elements Mountain.

I sighed in my heart and shook my head helplessly. This guy is probably the most arrogant monkey in the world.

The monkey found a flat stone, wiped it with his sleeve, and helped me to sit down: "Master, let's rest here. There is a family in front. I'll go and make some vegetarian food."

I watched him go away, closed my eyes slightly, and silently recited scriptures.

"Mage."

A pair of boots that looked very valuable appeared in front of my eyes. I raised my head, and as I expected, it was the man in black, or rather—the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea, Ao Lie.

"Xiaolong drank too much wine before and offended the mage, the mage atones for his sin."

I looked at this man and didn't feel like talking.

"The jade pendant is a relic of my wife, please return it from the mage."

It was too dark before, and I was a little scared, so I didn’t dare to look at it carefully. Now that I look closely under the sun, I can see that this person is really handsome. Even though such a face is thin and haggard, it still has something touching traits, just like a depressive sick beauty.

After looking at him, I still didn't want to pay attention to him and continued to recite scriptures silently.

Judging from the story he told before, this man is so cowardly that it is really difficult to make people feel worried. I am afraid of what he will do.

He looked at me for a while, then suddenly knelt down: "I beg the mage to return my wife's relics."

I looked at him calmly: "Your jade pendant is in the hands of my apprentice, you can go to him when he comes back."

Ao Lie left without waiting for Wukong to come back. The cold and bleak aura wrapped in the black clothes really made me more or less sick

some guilt.

I thought this matter would end like this. Originally, the dragon probably didn't dare to trouble the monkey. Since he didn't dare, then he can only resent, resent, resent and then resent, he can't do anything, he can't do anything. I dare not do it.

Unexpectedly, when I turned my head, Ao Lie came again. This time, he didn't say a word to me, and swept away my horse without a word. The speed was extremely fast, before I could say no, I saw a burst of flying sand and rocks, and my horse disappeared.

I was silent for a long while, feeling a little puzzled, is this guy trying to exchange a jade pendant with me?

And what happened next proved that my imagination was really limited.

Who is Ao Lie?He is the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea. If he wants a jade pendant, will he exchange a horse with me?

So this guy did a rather miraculous thing, he directly invited Guanyin.

Then I heard a very strange story. Ao Lie told Guanyin that he couldn’t help eating my horse for a while because he was hungry for many days. Come to atone.

What's even more bizarre is that the Bodhisattva agreed.

I almost want to listen to the smoke, what does it mean to replace my horse and follow me to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures, my horse can ride you, can you?I tactfully expressed my point of view, hoping that these two people can wake up.

But riding a dragon to learn the scriptures also sounds... nice?Well, at least it feels cool.

Then I realized that I was too young and naive. These two people showed me with practical actions that Ao Lie can really be ridden, not like a dragon, but like a horse Those who can ride.

...he turned into a horse.

I stared at the white horse dumbfounded, and felt that my three views were slowly collapsing in some weird way.

Oops, just thinking that the white horse under him is a dragon makes me feel so crazy!This dragon is obviously mentally abnormal, okay?

The Bodhisattva was very satisfied with this situation, and walked away with a smile, leaving me staring at the horse dumbfounded.

Sun Houzi laughed so hard that he fell down. I gave him a hard look and felt that the future was bleak.

"Wukong, you lead the horse." I ordered, and decided to walk temporarily.I no longer want to see horses in the short term, let alone ride them, not even a little bit.

The monkey handed the bowl to me with a smile, and winked: "Master, what a blessing."

"..." Whoever ate this gloating monkey, I want to change my apprentice.
