[Journey to the West] The poor monk is a fake monk

The five of them walked from spring to summer, from summer to autumn, and at night at the end of autumn, they were blocked by a big river again.

Sun Xingzhe stepped forward to inspect.

Bajie cautiously said: "Be careful, don't be like last time."

Sun Xingzhe snorted coldly, "Last time, it was because you were not vigilant enough."

Ao Lie who turned into a white horse said impatiently: "Hurry up, it's getting colder and colder here, Master can't take it anymore."

Sun Xingzhe finally found a stone tablet by the river, and he read the words on the stone tablet: "Tongtianhe."

Ao Lie chuckled: "You're so loud, do you really think this river can reach the sky?"

Sun Xingzhe read out the small characters on it again: "Across eight hundred miles, few people have traveled since ancient times."

Bajie said softly, "It's a bit weird."

Sun Xingzhe gave a cold "hmm".

Chen Tangtang moved on the horse, Ao Lie immediately exclaimed, and Sha Wujing, who was carrying the luggage, rushed forward and supported her.

"Master? What's the matter? What's wrong with you?" Bajie hurriedly asked.

Even Sun Xingzhe withdrew from the river.

Chen Tangtang shook his head: "Wu Jing is making too much fuss. I am hungry as a teacher, so I need to move around a little bit."

When the disciples heard that the master was hungry, they immediately panicked!

They have a clear division of labor, Sun Xingzhe rides the clouds to look for people around, Bajie looks for food to satisfy his hunger temporarily, Ao Lie carefully carries her, and Sha Wujing protects her.

Ao Lie was impatient, and couldn't help complaining: "Why don't you care about Master, and let Master go hungry."

When Chen Tangtang heard this, he immediately explained: "I don't blame you, in fact, as a teacher, I feel that being protected by you all the way is more comfortable than living in the temple, but, alas—"

Hearing her sigh, they tensed up again.

Chen Tangtang whispered: "The poor monk is just thinking, if the poor monk takes the scriptures and returns to Chang'an, how will he live without you."

What he said was so affectionate that several apprentices felt embarrassed.

"Master is also true. I always say things like this. I will not leave Master. From now on, Master will ride me whenever he wants." Ao Lie lowered his horse's head and flicked its tail quickly.

Bajie smiled languidly, and accused: "You are so dirty, you miss Master so much."

"Hey!"

"As long as Master needs me, I will always be there." Sun Xingzhe jumped down from the air: "I have already found a place to live, not far ahead."

"That's good."

Chen Tangtang's clothes were suddenly grabbed by someone, she turned her head to look, Sha Wujing didn't say anything, just smiled at her.

His answer is self-evident.

Bajie's fingers sneaked into Chen Tangtang's sleeve, squeezed her hand, and let go immediately.

Chen Tang Tang thought happily: Her apprentices really respected their teachers and respected and loved her as a master.

After thinking about it, she couldn't help sighing: "It's nice to have you by my side."

Ao Lie couldn't take it anymore, he groaned, and said shyly: "Master always likes to say things that make people blush."

"Huh?" Chen Tangtang looked frank.

blush?

Where did this start?

The apprentices who were already familiar with Chen Tangtang's temperament all shut up and refused to answer her words.

That's good, just deceive yourself for a while.

After walking for a while, he came to a Zhuangzi. Bajie stepped forward and knocked on the door to negotiate.

It was an old man who opened the door. After Bajie explained his purpose, he immediately opened the door and invited everyone to enter the room. When Chen Tangtang passed by him, he couldn't help but take another look.

Sun Xingzhe had sharp eyes and noticed it all at once: "Hey, old man, what are you looking at!"

The old man wondered, "Is this also a monk?"

Bajie smiled: "Yes, she is our master."

The old man stroked his beard and praised: "You are so good-looking, you are so good-looking that you have become a monk... Alas, it would be nice if you, a good-looking monk, came earlier, and you can catch up with our family's pre-repair work." Dead fast."

As he spoke, he welcomed everyone into the hall and ordered his servants to cook vegetarian meals.

Chen Tangtang had heard of Qingmiao Zhai and Ping'an Zhai, but had never heard of the pre-cultivation Zhai, so he couldn't help asking.

It was fine if she didn't ask, but when she asked, the old man started to cry.

"Elder, don't you know that there is a big river here called Tongtian River."

Chen Tangtang said: "We have already seen this river when we came here."

"Has the elder ever seen the turbulent waves above?"

"No."

"Has the elder ever seen monsters coming in and out?"

"nor."

"The elder should have seen the blood on the bank of the river, right?"

Chen Tangtang felt that it was too late to chat for the day: "...No."

The old man's eyes changed, as if he suspected that Chen Tangtang was lying to him when he said that he passed the Tongtian River.

Sorry, the poor monk became blind because he was too hungry, so he didn't see anything.

Ao Lie said impatiently: "You old man has a lot of things to do, talk about things when you have something to do!"

Chen Tangtang glanced at him, and he immediately smiled obediently and shyly.

Bajie smiled and said, "Why are you pretending? Master already knows what you look like."

Ao Lie snorted: "I want you to take care of it!"

Chen Tangtang said patiently: "My father-in-law, we passed by there at night, maybe we didn't see it clearly, but, what about monsters... the disciples of the poor monk all have their own supernatural powers, and they will definitely be able to deal with them."

The old man looked at them suspiciously, and slowly said: "It's like this, there is a big monster entrenched in that Tongtian River. That monster is known as the king of inspiration, and he is very inspiration. If we want to sacrifice a pair of children, boys and girls every year, we must have our own, because he remembers all the birthdays of the boys and girls, and this time it's our family's turn... This..."

He said and shed two lines of clear tears.

At this time, Bajie suddenly got up and went out.

Everyone just thought it was convenient for him to go, and didn't care.

The old man babbled on a lot.

Chen Tangtang couldn't help but take a look at his great apprentice.

Sun Xingzhe said indifferently: "It's easy to handle. My junior brother and I will pretend to be boys and girls from your family, and we will deal with that monster easily."

The old man eyed him suspiciously.

Sun Xingzhe immediately took out the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, manipulated the stick to become thicker and bigger, and pierced the roof with a bang.

Only then did the old man cry and said, "Then thank you very much, abbot."

It was only here that a plan was decided, and Bajie Shi Shiran came back with a plate of pastries in his hand.

He smiled and said to Chen Tangtang: "I went to their kitchen to take a look before I got angry. It may take a long time before I can eat. Master, you need to make a bed first."

Chen Tangtang couldn't help admiring: "Bajie, you are indeed the most careful."

Sun Xingzhe, Sha Wujing and Ao Lie all looked at him sourly.

The old man suddenly realized: "Oh, I'm going to urge them now."

After the old man left, Chen Tangtang asked, "Who does Xingzhe want to go with?"

Sun Xingzhe wanted to call Bajie, but Bajie suddenly said: "I can't do it, I want to be closer to Master."

Sun Xingzhe hated secretly, so he glared at Sha Wujing.

Sha Wujing nodded, looking down-to-earth and willing to work without complaint.

Chen Tangtang smiled at him, and Sha Wujing also showed a silly smile.

Sun Xingzhe felt a little sour.

False, all are false.

The second apprentice who is considerate and considerate, the third apprentice who is down-to-earth, the little apprentice who is acting like a spoiled child... They are all charming goblins, each of them knows how to compete for the king's favor, only he is dedicated to fighting hard for the king's society. .

When Sun Xingzhe looked up, he saw Chen Tangtang pinching a piece of cloud cake with fair fingers and handing it to him.

Sun Xingzhe pursed his lips, his golden eyes were shining, he leaned over, opened his mouth, and bit it.

Chen Tangtang let go of his hand and stroked his head.

All the bitterness and complaints in his heart disappeared, instead filled with a soft and warm indescribable feeling, as if all the sweet pastries he swallowed had gone to his heart.

Because tonight is the night of offering sacrifices, so after they finished their meal, Sun Xingzhe and Sha Wujing turned into boys and girls to catch monsters, while Chen Tangtang stayed in Zhuangzi with Bajie and Ao Lie. inside.

The old man suggested: "The garden in my village is nice, why don't the elders go and have a look?"

Chen Tang Tang happily went.

She stepped into the garden with a lantern, and saw that the red maples in the garden were like fire, the yellow chrysanthemums were shining golden, the water in the rockery and pool had autumn colors, and the pavilions and small bridges were charming.

Standing on the bridge, Chen Tangtang looked down at the fish in the pond below the bridge.

"Master."

Looking back, Chen Tangtang saw Bajie, dressed in white, stepping on the red leaves.

"The apprentice also came here to enjoy the scenery?"

Bajie's gentle eyes were as hot as fire reflected by the maple leaves here, and he whispered: "Yes, I came here following Master's footsteps."

"It is now, and it will be in the future."

Chen Tangtang leaned on the railing of the small bridge, staring at him with clear eyes.

Bajie's smile is like flowing golden sand, beautiful and almost illusory, with a look of extravagance: "I just hope that Master will never say that you will be alone in Chang'an again."

"How come there is only Master alone?"

His voice is tender and gentle: "As long as I am here, I am the shadow of Master."

"Where is the master, I will be there."

The water in the pool illuminated by the lantern light was rippling, and a fish sneaked its head out of the water, staring at the people on the bridge.
