Guide to raising cubs in westbound [Journey to the West]

After Sun Wukong returned to the guest room, he signaled Drifting and the others that they don't need to look for it anymore, and they can get it tomorrow.

"Is it really a small stone to play with?"

After Sand Monk finished speaking, Zhu Bajie immediately said: "Little Shitou can play as long as he wants, he has his sense of proportion, and he won't play badly."

Monkey King didn't say yes or no, he just waved his hands to signal them to go to bed quickly.

The next day, it was just dawn.

Hong Hai'er coaxed the little guy to sleep last night with a lot of talk, and now he felt movement beside him, subconsciously stretched out his hand and patted it twice.

The little guy who was patted by him has opened his eyes, sat up with his buttocks pouted, woke up and began to crawl under the bed.

Hong Hai'er was awakened by the movement of him crawling out from under his arms, and while opening his eyelids, he subconsciously grabbed the fleshy little feet in front of him.

"Honghong, are you awake?" Xiao Shitou felt his feet being grabbed, turned his head and crawled back to him.

The light in the room was not particularly bright, and it was obviously very early.

"What are you doing up so early?" Hong Haier's voice was a little sleepy.

"I want to give the customs clearance certificate to the big stone."

Hong Haier couldn't help sitting up when he heard this, with a displeased expression on his face: "It's not that I can hide it and let them stay with you in my house for a while longer."

"But this is not good. The big stone and the master will be unhappy if they find out." The little guy lowered his head and grabbed his little hand.

Red Boy looked at him facing his black hair, and said coldly: "Then you are not afraid that I will be unhappy?"

"Honghong, you are the best, don't be unhappy~"

The little guy was naturally afraid that he would be unhappy, so he immediately threw himself into his arms to coax him.

Hong Haier kept a straight face, and told him that if he dared to return the clearance certificate now, he would ignore him.

The little guy coaxed and acted coquettishly, but he didn't let go. He fell back a little tired, and sighed a little while lying on the bed: "Oh..."

Red Boy was amused by his appearance, seeing that he chose to continue to lie down and sleep, thinking that he was giving up, he poked the dimple on the back of his hand in satisfaction.

However, he thought too much.After breakfast, Tang Seng just asked a "customs clearance document", a little guy who had just finished drinking milk and didn't even have time to wipe his mouth turned around and took out the hidden customs clearance document and handed it to him .

"I hid it. I was wrong. Master, don't be angry."

Tang Seng's master and apprentice have different personalities, but I have to say that when facing the little guy, they will try their best to restrain themselves and show their good sides in front of him.

It was their intentions that Xiao Shitou was taught very well even though he was young.When Sun Wukong came to the room to ask last night, he felt that it was not good to deliberately hide the customs clearance document, so he knew to admit his mistake.

Tang Seng thought he was just playing with it, but when he heard that he hid it on purpose, he was puzzled and asked, "Why did you hide it?"

"I don't want to part with Honghong, I want to hide it so that you don't leave and stay here with me." The little guy lowered his head as he spoke.

Hong Haier was very angry at his behavior at first, but when he heard that he was reluctant to part with him, and seeing his pitiful appearance at this moment, he hummed softly and said, "It was my idea, and I hid the things, it has nothing to do with him." .”

After he finished speaking, thinking that the little guy was about to leave, he turned around a little annoyed and annoyed, and turned his back to them.

The Bull Demon King and his wife didn't expect their son to do such a childish thing in order to keep someone. After looking at each other, they didn't know what to say.

Monkey King and the others felt that it would be good to find the customs clearance certificate, and it was not a big deal.Seeing the little guy bowing his head and admitting his mistake, they even wanted to hug someone and coax him.

But before they coaxed them, Tang Seng said first, "If you want to stay a few days longer, you can discuss with us, there is no need to hide things..."

After Tang Seng finished explaining the truth to the little guy, he stretched out his hand to touch his head and praised him, expressing that it was a good behavior for him to correct his mistakes.

Seeing that Master was not angry, Xiao Shitou finally showed a smile.

Tang Seng and the others are fine, but Hong Haier is obviously still sulking.

"Go and tell him, we'll stay for another two days."

After Tang Seng finished speaking, the little guy immediately ran over and threw himself on Hong Boy's back: "Hong Hong, Master said that we can stay for another two days!"

Seeing that he was still angry, Hong Haier threw himself on him, and couldn't help turning his head to stare at him.

"Honghong, Honghong, why don't you speak? Honghong, did you hear me?"

"Do you want to bother you!"

Honghaier angrily tore him off his back, and walked out of the cave with a little heavy footsteps.

Seeing that he was going out, the little guy turned around and told Tang Seng and the others, and immediately trotted to follow.

Knowing that he still had to leave in two days, Hong Haier was not happy, but she didn't ignore him all the time.

In the days that followed, the two little guys ran around Cuiyun Mountain inseparably, having a great time.

Two days later.

Tang Seng and the others really wanted to say goodbye this time, and the Bull Demon King's family personally sent them down the mountain.

Princess Iron Fan talked with her son in private, telling him that Tang Seng and his disciples are like family members to Xiao Shitou, and it is normal for the little guy to refuse to leave his family.

It was precisely because of this that Hong Haier finally stopped clamoring for Xiao Shitou to stay.

"Honghong, I will come to your house to play when I am free~"

Hong Hai'er thought that with their slow speed, he didn't know when he would arrive in Xitian, and when he was free, he didn't know when.

"Why don't you speak again?" Xiao Shitou rushed over and hugged him after speaking.

"If you have anything to say, go if you want to go."

"I won't leave immediately!"

The little guy told himself not to go before seeing him, but now he told himself to go quickly, puffing his cheeks.

Seeing his chubby face swollen like a steamed stuffed bun, Hong Haier stretched out his hand to poke him and said, "If one day you get tired from walking and don't want to go anymore, I'll let Uncle Sun take you to my house."

Xiao Shitou wanted to say that he would not be tired, but before he could speak, he cleverly changed his words: "Okay~"

On the other hand, the farewell between Monkey King and the Bull Demon King was much simpler, and he went straight on the road after speaking.

The Bull Demon King and his wife stopped at the foot of the mountain, but Honghaier followed him for a while, and they didn't turn back until they passed the Flame Mountain.

Xiao Shitou watched the red cloud go away again, and couldn't help reaching out to touch the gold collar around his neck.

Knowing that he was unwilling to part with it, Tang Seng and his disciples deliberately slowed down their pace, and did not speed up until the red cloud disappeared from the sky.

After passing through the Flame Mountain, the little guy who had just parted with his little friends was languid for two days, and was coaxed by Monkey King and the others to become lively again.

It was not easy for Sun Wukong and the others to make him happy, and they even took the initiative to play with him in mud several times.

Thanks to the Bull Demon King's family, Tang Seng and his disciples had a lot of dry food in their luggage when they left Huoyan Mountain, and the little stone purse was stuffed with delicious food.

When their dry food was about to run out, they encountered a city in front of them.

If you have a city, you don't have to worry about having no place to stay, let alone food.Zhu Bajie, who had been lagging behind, immediately became active and led the horse to speed up the journey.

"This idiot!" Sun Wukong couldn't help laughing and cursing when he saw that he was slowing down just now and now he was running in front of him.

Little Shitou was nestling in his arms, and at this time he was a little excited by Zhu Bajie, waving his little hand and saying: "Big Shitou, run quickly~"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong took him directly to the gate of the city.

This place is called Jisai Kingdom, and the city in front of it is an imperial city, with a towering gate tower, which looks very majestic and majestic.

When Tang Monk and his disciples entered the city gate, they saw people coming and going in the six streets and three cities, which were very lively.

When they were about to move on, Xiao Shi suddenly pointed to the side and said, "Why do they wear wood around their necks?"

Monkey King and others followed his line of sight and found a group of monks in ragged clothes wearing chains and shackles.

There is a saying that things hurt other people. Tang Seng couldn't bear to see this scene. When he was about to ask his disciples to ask these monks what they had committed, he saw a young monk who had just turned fast was pushed away by the officers and soldiers.

The little monk begged for a long time on the street and no one paid any attention to him. Finally, a poor woman gave him a sesame seed cake. As soon as she got it, the officers and soldiers took it away and threw it on the ground, and even beat him.

"This person is really bad!" Xiao Shitou frowned.

Sun Wukong couldn't see it either, so he picked up the sesame seed cakes on the ground and patted them clean, and waited for Tang Seng and the others to help the little monk up and hand them to him.

The little monk was probably very hungry. He took the biscuits and ate them while crying.

"Don't cry, I'll treat you to some fruit~" Xiaoshitou thought of the last two uneaten fruits in his purse, so he took them out and gave them to him.

The little monk looked down at him, wiped his tears and took the fruit.

Seeing that he stopped crying, Tang Seng looked around and noticed a monk sitting next to him, and immediately stepped forward to ask.

The monk sighed and said that they were the wronged monks of Jinguang Temple.

The street is not a place to talk, and soon the monk and the young monk returned to Jinguang Temple with Tang Monk and his disciples.

In front of the gate of Jinguang Temple is written "Decree to build Jinguang Temple to protect the country", and you can tell it is a royal temple at a glance.

After the master and apprentice entered, they found that the huge temple looked very desolate, no one burned incense and worshiped Buddha in the temple, and no one cleaned the fallen leaves in the courtyard.

Tang Seng didn't understand how such a royal monastery could fall into such a situation, but when he was about to ask, he saw a wounded monk hanging in the temple.

Seeing this scene, Little Stone yelled subconsciously, and Monkey King quickly raised his hands to cover his eyes.

"What happened to the big stone?"

Before Sun Wukong had time to answer, Tang Seng said the Buddha first, and signaled his disciples to save him quickly.

Just as Zhu Bajie worked with Drifting to rescue him, footsteps came from outside.

The monks in the monastery knew that they were inspecting officers and soldiers, so they hurriedly led them inside.

Sun Wukong hugged the little guy and landed at the end, he pulled out his hair and turned into a fake monk and continued to hang there before leaving.

When the officers and soldiers heard the movement, they walked into the hall, made sure that the monk was still hanging there, then turned around and went out, but did not go any further.

In the apse, the monks in the monastery are already telling their grievances to the Tang monks and apprentices.

But it turns out that the country of Jisai is a big country in Xibang, which receives tribute from the nearby Siyi.And their Jinguang Temple has a Buddha treasure, which is placed on the top of the pagoda, and it emits rays of light at night, which is shared by the four countries.

Originally this was a good thing, but when the four countries came to pay tribute again, there was a blood rain that night, and then the Buddha treasure on the pagoda disappeared.The king believed that the monks of the Jinguang Temple were guarding and stealing, so he took down the monks and tortured them. Now he even said that if they don't return the Buddhist treasures, they will be executed.

The monk burst into tears after speaking, begging Tang Seng to save them.

It was late when the master and apprentice entered the city, and after hearing the grievances of the monks, it was already dark outside.

After Tang Seng promised the monks of Jinguang Temple to ask the king tomorrow, he turned to his disciple and said, "Wukong, go find a broom."

Monkey King was puzzled and asked him why he wanted to broom.

"When I left Chang'an, I made a vow to burn incense in temples and sweep pagodas on the westbound road." Tang Seng then added, "Before you face the king tomorrow, you must first find out the cause of this matter, and just go up and sweep the pagodas." , by the way, check it out."

Seeing that the injured monk was pitiful, Xiao Shitou had already moved over there to take care of him with Zhu Bajie, but Monkey King ignored him and turned around to look for a broom.

When Monkey King found the broom and came back, the group ate some dry food and boiled hot water for a bath.

After taking a bath, Tang Seng took a broom and said, "You guys rest first, and I will sweep the pagoda."

"I also need to go!"

The little guy hasn't swept the tower yet, and he wants to join in the fun as soon as he hears it.

Sun Wukong was worried about his master going to sweep the pagoda alone, so he simply brought a small stone to accompany him.

After the three entered the pagoda, Tang Seng first bowed in the pagoda, hoping that the Buddha would bless the monks in the temple to clear up their grievances.

Xiao Shitou stood next to him and bowed after him, then looked at him curiously.

"Don't run around." Sun Wukong thought that the tower was drenched in blood, fearing that there was something weird, so he directly brought him to his side.

The little guy saw that Tang Seng had started sweeping the pagoda, and immediately said: "Master, I will sweep, I will sweep."

"No need."

After Tang Seng finished speaking, he began to clean carefully with a calm expression, while Monkey King held the little guy with one hand and held up the candlestick with the other.

"Then I'll get the candles." The little guy probably wanted to find something to do, and if he couldn't help sweeping the floor, he wanted to get the candlesticks.

The stairs of the pagoda are not too wide, and Monkey King didn't dare to pull it for fear of being burned, so he could only let him take it.

"Be careful."

"I know~" Xiao Shitou agreed, happily holding a candlestick to illuminate Tang Seng.

Not to mention, compared to Sun Wukong who had to bend over to hold the candlestick as low as possible, the little guy is tall enough to be able to illuminate the stairs clearly while standing.

Seeing that it seemed more convenient for him to hold the candlestick than himself, Monkey King simply let him hold it.

Being in the environment of the pagoda late at night is actually a bit scary, but Tang Seng focused on sweeping the tower, and the little guy carefully illuminated him; Sun Wukong stared at the little attention and asked him to hold the candlestick, while helping to clean the cobwebs on the top, Against the background of warm candlelight, the atmosphere is indescribably peaceful and warm.

Before they knew it, they had reached the seventh floor of the pagoda, and Tang Seng's footsteps gradually slowed down.

The candlestick has been taken back to him by Monkey King, and the little guy who has nothing to do is not being naughty, but slowly climbs the stairs beside them.

"Master, are you tired?" Xiao Shitou thoughtfully raised the gourd to give him water as he spoke.

Tang Seng took it and took two sips, then passed it out and said, "Wukong."

Monkey King also took a sip of water, covered the gourd and put it back into the little guy's arms.

"We have already swept to the seventh floor, how many floors are still left?" Xiao Shitou asked while hugging the gourd.

Monkey King didn't answer directly, but said: "This tower has a total of thirteen floors, you can do the math yourself."

The little guy hung the gourd back around his waist and stretched out his fingers to break it off.

Tang Seng looked interesting, so he simply stopped to rest for a while, to see if he could figure it out.

The master and the apprentice originally felt that ten fingers were not enough to break off, and he might not be able to calculate it. Who knew that the little guy lowered his head and lifted up six fingers and said, "I see, there are still six floors to sweep!"

Sun Wukong said "Hey", bent down and shone the candlestick on his hand and joked: "You don't have thirteen fingers, how can you count it as six floors?"

"Ten minus seven is three, plus three is six!" Xiao Shitou said while showing him his fingers again.

Tang Seng has always known that the little guy is very smart, just like before, he obviously didn't teach him specifically, but he came over to read the scriptures for fun when he was reciting the scriptures, and he already knew a lot of characters.

He looked at the little guy who was still holding his finger with a smile, and continued to sweep the tower after a compliment.

"Master, let me sweep for you." Sun Wukong saw that he was a little tired, and reached out to pick up the broom.

Tang Seng shook his head and refused, still sweeping slowly layer by layer.

After sweeping three floors like this, his back was sore and his legs ached, so he could only sit down and rest on the spot.

"There are three more floors~" Xiao Shitou raised his finger to remind.

It was almost three o'clock at this time, and Tang Seng felt that it was not good to stay up all night with the little guy, so he finally let his apprentice clean the remaining three floors for him.

"Big stone, I'll help you get the candle!"

The little guy is in good spirits. Seeing Monkey King taking the broom, he immediately went to pick up the candlesticks.

Sun Wukong made sure that he was not tired, so he gave it to him.

Compared with Tang Seng, Monkey King moved much faster, sweeping from the tenth floor to the twelfth floor in a short while.

Xiao Shitou likes to help with work, so he got the candlestick again and carefully illuminated it for him.

Monkey King scanned the twelfth floor for a while, and suddenly heard someone talking on the top of the tower.

He felt that there must be some kind of monster that appeared on the top in the middle of the night, so he put down his broom lightly, and silently gestured at the little guy twice.

Xiao Shitou also heard someone talking now, but when he saw his movements, he covered his mouth cleverly.

After Sun Wukong signaled him to stay here and not move, he went to the top of the thirteenth floor tower in stealth, and saw two goblins punching and drinking inside.

He guessed that this might be the goblin who stole the treasure, and thought it would be easy to beat him to death with a stick, but he was afraid that he would lose evidence when he met the king tomorrow.

Thinking of this, it was rare for him to be merciful, and he directly stopped the two goblins and dragged them down to meet the master.

"Big Shitou, who are they?" Little Shitou asked curiously when he saw him go up for a while but drag two people down.

"Go down and talk to Master."

Sun Wukong took him down after speaking.

The pagoda has ten floors.

Tang Seng was sitting and taking a nap, but when he heard his apprentice say that he caught the goblin who stole the treasure, he immediately stood up in surprise.

"I found it on the top of the tower. These two goblins are quite courageous. After stealing the treasure, they dared to go up there and punch and drink." After Monkey King finished speaking, he signaled the two goblins to explain the origin.

After the two goblins begged for mercy, they said that they were subordinates of the Wansheng Dragon King in Bibotan, Rocky Mountain. One was called "Benbo Erba" and the other was called "Babo Erben".

But it turns out that the Dragon King of All Saints has a son-in-law named Nine-Headed Insect, who has great supernatural powers.Nine-Headed Insect heard that there is a Buddha treasure relic in Jinguang Temple, and came here with the Dragon King. A bloody rain polluted the pagoda, and took the opportunity to steal the Buddha treasure.

The reason why Benbo Erba and Babo Erben are here is because Nine-Headed Insects heard that there was a man named Sun Wukong who went to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures and was nosy on the way, so he sent two goblins to patrol the tower.

Sun Wukong felt familiar when he heard Bibotan, and he remembered it after a little thought. When the Bull Demon King returned to the Banana Cave that day, he seemed to say that he had returned from a banquet at Bibotan.

The two goblins had just finished explaining, Zhu Bajie probably couldn't wait for them to come back for a long time, so he brought a few monks to find him.

"Master, why don't you go back to bed so late?"

After Zhu Bajie finished speaking, the little guy immediately told him: "The big stone has caught the monster who stole the treasure!"

After he finished speaking, the monks who followed us wept with joy. After leading them down the tower with lanterns, they hurriedly told the good news to the monks in the monastery.

At this time, it was midnight, and seeing the little guy yawning, Monkey King picked him up and put him in Tang Seng's arms: "Master, take him to rest first, and Bajie and I will tie up these two monsters so that they don't run away."

Tang Seng thought that tomorrow he could clear up the grievances of the monks of Jinguang Temple, nodded with a smile in his eyes, and went back to the room with the little guy who was already nestled in his arms and closed his eyes.

After watching them leave, Monkey King and Zhu Bajie started together, wearing two goblin lute bones and locking them up so that they would not hurt others if they ran away in the middle of the night.

The monks in the monastery refused to rest, and insisted on staying here to guard the goblin who could prove their innocence, and let Monkey King and the others go to rest.

The next day.

Tang Seng put on a brocade cassock, tidied up his appearance, and led his apprentices to prepare to enter the court to change Guan Wen, and to cleanse the grievances of the monks of Jinguang Temple.

Arriving at the gate of the palace, Tang Seng left Zhu Bajie and Sand Monk to guard the two monsters after receiving the news from the king. He only took Monkey King and Xiao Shitou to face the saint first.

All civil and military officials were a little frightened when they saw Sun Wukong's appearance, and they didn't dare to look directly at him.

"You are Lei Gongzui!" Xiao Shitou retorted unhappily when he heard that Sun Wukong was a monk of Lei Gongzui.

After Tang Seng patted his little shoulder to remind him not to be rude, he bowed to the king and said: "The poor monk is from the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty..."

When the king heard the words, he immediately gave them the master and apprentice to sit, and then took Guan Wen to look at them.

"Sure enough, he is an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty, who can travel thousands of miles to the west to learn scriptures. Unlike the monks here, he is a thief." The king sighed after reading Guan Wen.

Tang Seng asked knowingly, "Why did Your Majesty say that?"

The king then told the story of the monk in Jinguang Temple guarding and stealing himself, with anger in his words.

"Amitabha." After saying "Buddha," Tang Seng explained for the monks of Jinguang Temple.

The king was still a little displeased when he heard that he was complaining for the monks of Jinguang Temple, but he was surprised and happy when he heard that he had caught the goblin who stole the treasure on the pagoda.

"Where is the demon thief who stole the treasure?" His tone was a little anxious.

After Tang Seng said that he had taken it outside the palace, just in case, he signaled his apprentice to come and bring the goblin in himself.

When the two goblins were brought up, the king immediately asked where the goblins were from.

Benbo Erba and Babo Erben had already confessed last night, so naturally they would not resist at this time, and honestly said what they confessed last night in the hall again.

Hearing this, the king realized that he had wrongly blamed the monks of Jinguang Temple, and immediately ordered people to forgive them. He also asked people to prepare a banquet to thank Tang monk and his disciples for their work in catching the thief. He thought about asking them to help find the Buddhist treasure after the banquet.
