[Journey to the West] The Poor Monk Xuanzang

elder.

elder save me

I beg the elders to save me.

I was sleeping in a daze when I suddenly heard someone calling for help. The voice was not too loud, but it kept echoing in my ears, which was very disturbing.

I had no choice but to get up and look around, but I didn't know if I was on the wrong road or something. The scenery around me became more and more unfamiliar.

Suddenly hearing laughter, I looked towards where the sound came from, and saw a woman galloping past me with a whip on her horse.

The woman turned her head and glanced in my direction. Her demeanor was truly indescribably heroic and fluent.

"Please elder, save me." The voice came from behind me, which startled me.

It was a woman in white, her skin was creamy, her hair was like black jade, her face was beautiful and very dignified, but there was an unresolved melancholy between her brows.

I took a closer look at her eyebrows and eyes, and there was a bit of resemblance to the woman who rode past just now, but the woman just now was like a nine-pointed arrow in the sun, which only reminds people of the first blooming flowers, the grass that just sticks out their heads, and the vast soup. The flowing water has unparalleled vitality.

And the person in front of him, although he is [-]% similar to the woman just now, is like a bright moon, like a lotus after the rain, cold and pitiful.

At this time, a gust of wind suddenly swept in, and the wind blew the sand and rocks, and in the sand and dust, a monster with a ferocious face loomed.

The woman's horse was frightened, and galloped away neighing, followed by the strong wind, and after a while, the woman was turned into the wind and disappeared.

"I was originally the third princess of Baoxiang Kingdom." The woman in white said softly, "I was taken away by that monster, forced to marry him, and gave birth to two evil seeds for him."

"Amitabha," my heart skipped a beat when I heard the word "Nie Zong", I put my palms together in salute and said, "Female benefactor, why are you talking about this to the poor monk?"

"The monster was afraid that I would leave, so he locked me in the cave every day and made me unable to return home. It has been 13 years now," the woman burst into tears when she said this, "I heard that the elder is going to the west. , I beg the elder to send a letter to my family for me, and ask my father to send someone to save me."

I woke up with a cold body, as if I had been soaked in cold water all night, my hands and feet were numb from the cold, and I looked in my hand, and there was a letter.

"Master! Are you sick?" The monkey jumped over and touched my forehead, "Why are you sweating so much?"

I grabbed his arm, leaned over and asked, "How far is Baoxiang Kingdom from here?"

"Master, you're still thinking about this!" He lifted the quilt and sneaked in, "You're clearly sucked by a monster."

"Monster?" I shivered from the cold and couldn't help but move closer to him, "You guys are guarding, how can there be a monster coming?"

"It's just a low-level nightmare," he laughed. "That thing was born of resentment. Although it is half a monster, it has no form. It often dreams of people, but it sucks people's energy. My negligence made this The ghost came running in."

"But the third princess of Baoxiang Kingdom is clearly a person." I said and took out the letter and showed it to the monkey.

"I'm afraid it's a ghost without knowing it." He smiled contemptuously, grabbed the letter and tried to tear it up, "This thing is full of ghost energy, which is unlucky."

I quickly reached out to grab it: "I promised to bring this letter to her father."

"I don't know how long she's been dead. What kind of letter did she bring?" The monkey pinched the letter in his hand and refused to give it to me. "Let me here, and return to the king of Baoxiang Kingdom."

I recalled the appearance of the princess of Baoxiang Kingdom, but I couldn't quite believe that such a beauty was already dead.After thinking about it, he fell asleep. This time, he slept peacefully and had no dreams all night.

On the second day, I went to Baoxiang Kingdom, switched Guan Wen, and handed the family letter to the monarch.

The aged old emperor finished reading the letter, put the letter aside with shaking hands, and said to me: "13 years ago, the prince disappeared, and he couldn't find it anywhere in the palace. He only said that he lost his way and had nowhere to look. I know it was taken by monsters."

After finishing speaking, the old emperor let out a long sigh, and asked the officials: "Which of the Qing family can lead the army to go to the Wanzi cave, catch the monsters, and save me Princess Baihua."

He asked three times and no one dared to answer.

There was silence all around, the old man on the throne looked to the right and to the right, only to see civil servants and military generals standing there motionless like wooden carvings.

An old man came out more and more, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, since this elder dares to go to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures alone, he must have the ability to subdue demons and demons. Why don't you ask him to lead the army to rescue the princess?"

"Elder, if you have the means to catch the monster, save my child and return to court, how about I sit on the dragon bed with you and share the wealth and honor?" The old man looked at me pitifully, without the majesty of a king, as if he was only thinking about his daughter father.

When I heard this, I didn't know how to answer, not to mention whether I could subdue the monster. Yesterday, Wukong said that Princess Baihua was dead, so I couldn't bring a dead person back.

Before I could refuse, the monkey ran forward, tugged at the old emperor's beard and said with a smile: "Old man, are you serious?"

The old emperor almost didn't let him be scared to death, and he didn't annoy him when he recovered, he just asked: "Little elder, maybe you can save my child."

The monkey chuckled: "I can't promise whether I can save the princess or not, but it's not difficult to get that monster." He negotiated the conditions with the old emperor, greeted me, and ran away.

I let out a long sigh, and I just felt that it was a bad idea to raise such an apprentice who wanted to find someone to fight all day long.

Not even half a day later, I saw Bajie and Drifting escorting Princess Baihua back. That Princess Baihua was beautiful and cold, just like the woman I had seen in my dream before.

The woman called her father and grabbed the old emperor's arm.The father and daughter hugged each other and cried.

At the end, she turned to me again, and bowed gracefully: "Thank you, elder and disciple, for saving my life."

"It's okay, it's okay." I waved my hand, and thinking about Wukong saying that the princess was dead before, I couldn't help but feel a little worried, and hesitated: "Why hasn't my disciple come back?"

"The Great Sage is still dealing with that monster." When she said the word "monster", a murderous look flashed between her brows, "The Great Sage has great powers, and he will definitely be able to tear that monster to pieces!"

At this point, we dare to confirm that this woman is really full of evil spirits.

But I didn't see the monkey come back until night. I saw that it was getting late, so I didn't wait for him and went to sleep.

"Master!" The monkey shook me awake and said excitedly, "That monster in yellow robe is actually Kuimu wolf, one of the 28 constellations."

"Oh?" I suddenly regained my energy, lost all sleepiness in an instant, and grabbed him: "What should I say?"

"Princess Baihua was originally a jade girl who wore the incense in the Temple of Fragrance and had an affair with Mr. Kuimu Lang. After the girl went down to the realm, she was reborn as the third princess of Baoxiang Kingdom, but she forgot her past."

"According to the previous agreement, Mr. Kui Mulang, the lower realm was a demon, and he took Princess Baihua into the cave. That's how they were married for 13 years."

Hearing what he said, I just felt chills in my heart, how could the hatred and hatred in Princess Baihua's words be half false?Such a resentful couple was actually destined in the previous life, so I have to sigh that good luck makes people fool.

"But you said that Princess Baihua is already dead?" The one I saw is still alive and well.

"As early as 13 years ago, when the two met for the first time, they fell off the cliff and died," the monkey continued after drinking a sip of tea. Not corrupt."

"Now that Princess Baihua is neither a demon nor a demon, she is no longer a human being."

"Just follow her in Baoxiang Kingdom?" I asked.

"Kui Mulang has been recalled to the Heavenly Palace by the Jade Emperor, and the soul-fixing technique on her body will gradually fail. After it fails, the princess will naturally enter reincarnation, no different from ordinary people."

"Speaking of which, the kid is now sent to Tushita Palace to work as a fireworker. He heard that the princess hates him to the bone, so he decided to forget about his past and let me give that love to the princess for him."

I was curious when I heard it: "Love, can you still send it?" And there is no way to forget it.

The monkey was rare and serious: "It should be memory."

The second time, we asked the king to resign. Before leaving, the monkey said to Princess Baihua: "The yellow-robed monster is originally the Kuimu wolf lord in the sky. He has been recalled to the upper realm. , let me hand it over to the princess."

The woman in white didn't even ask what it was, she just interrupted Wukong and said, "No need, I don't want to see anything about him again."

But the monkey didn't seem to understand and refused. He took out a bead from his arms and threw it into her arms, then helped me onto the horse.

extra memory

"What kind of incense do you order?" The man leaned over and watched her busy back and forth.

"It's my new one. How's it going, okay?" The woman asked with a smile, her eyes fixed on the incense burner, but she peeked at his profile from the corner of her eye.

"It's okay," he sniffed, "it's quite comfortable."

He obviously didn't know how to be sweet, and he was talking nonsense, but she smiled and frowned at this compliment that was not much better than polite.

"I'll give you some if you like it?"

"Okay," he responded casually and suddenly felt something was wrong, "Why are you looking at me all the time? Is there something on my face?" He subconsciously touched his face, a little confused.

She pursed her lips and smiled, turning her head away.

"You said that Yuelao casually wrapped a thread and it became a marriage, isn't it ridiculous?" He joked about it.

She stared at him for a while, then lowered her head in panic: "Why do you say that?"

"It gives people the feeling that those love affairs are just a farce under the hands of that bad old man."

"Farce... Ah." She unconsciously repeated the evaluation from the man's mouth, not knowing what it was like in her heart.

"There are so many idiots in this world who complain about women, who love to leave, who can't get what they want, who are worried and fearful about their private affairs, and worry about them all day long,"

"The troubles like dust on the fingertips have caused some people to delay for a lifetime. It is really sad."

"It's better for you and me to be at ease in this heavenly palace. It's much better than that in the mundane world."

She listened to his eloquent talk, listened to his disdain for the mortal love in his words, and at the end, she didn't even dare to look at him.

She was afraid that her disdain for mortal love would turn into disdain for her.She didn't dare to let him know her feelings.

……

…………

"Mr. Kuimu Lang, let me ask you, do you love me or not?" She finally couldn't help it anymore, and asked him desperately.

"Shi Xiang, you..." He seemed to be taken aback by her, grabbed her and said in a low voice, "You and I are in the heaven together, how can we have such an affair."

"I don't care about these, I just ask you, have you ever treated me..."

"Shi Xiang!" He snapped, "Don't forget, you have gone through many disasters to get to where you are today!"

She turned her head away, tears streaming down instantly, her back was facing him, her voice was as calm as ever: "You are scared."

"...Shi Xiang," he said helplessly.

"If I became a mortal, would you be willing to be a husband and wife with me for the rest of my life?" Her face was full of tears, her chin was raised high, and she looked at him with great pride.

"One day in the sky and one year in the earth, you only need to give me a few days of the world, and it will be enough to end my love in this life." She smiled and jumped off the cloud head, "Shi Xiang, take a step first, Mr. Kuimu Lang, I wish you See you in the next life."

"Shi Xiang, don't act recklessly, how can you ruin your practice for so many years!"

"Servant!"

You and I have been husband and wife for 13 years, and the front end is here, forget about your infatuation for the rest of your life.In his sleep, the man bowed his head and smiled slightly, gradually drifting away, and finally turned into a star in the sky.
