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

When Tang Seng and the others left at night, the little guy was already asleep and was wrapped in a quilt by Monkey King and held in his arms.

"I'm stuffed……"

In the dead of night, a little sound will be particularly obvious.When Zhu Bajie heard someone talking, he subconsciously thought that it was discovered by the people in the city, and then realized that it was the little guy's voice.

"Little Stone is awake?"

Sun Wukong lowered his head and glanced into his arms, seeing the little guy sleeping blushing, recalling what he said just now, and said with a smile: "I didn't wake up, I'm afraid I was too full these days, I remembered it in my dreams."

It's also because the people in the Bhikkhu Kingdom are too enthusiastic, rushing to invite them to a table every day, sometimes they have to eat five or six meals a day, and they are desperately persuaded to serve them.These days, not to mention the little guys with small stomachs, even Zhu Bajie often feels the feeling of being full and full.

They mainly went out of the city at night to avoid being found out by the people, so they didn't have to rush all night.

Not long after leaving the bhikkhu country, the master and apprentice found a place sheltered from the wind and stopped to rest.

On the westbound road, they had a lot of eating and sleeping outside, but there was nothing wrong with it.

"Get some rest, you have to hurry tomorrow morning," Tang Seng said.

Zhu Bajie was already sleepy, and he lay down before he finished speaking.

The next morning.

Xiao Shitou woke up a little dazed, rubbed his eyes and looked around and asked strangely, "Why are we sleeping outside?"

The memory of the child before going to bed was still in a family in the city of Bhikkhu, but this time he opened his eyes but was in the wild, his little face was full of confusion.

Sun Wukong deliberately teased him and said, "I'm ashamed to say, last night you slept soundly and suddenly ran out, we can only chase you out."

"Didn't I sleep? How could I run when I fell asleep?" The little guy tilted his head and asked.

Sun Wukong suppressed a smile and said, "I still want to ask you why you don't sleep and run outside at night."

"I don't know either." The little guy seemed to believe his words, shook his head innocently, then opened his arms and hugged him and asked, "Then shall we go back?"

Sun Wukong didn't answer and asked instead: "Why go back?"

"Brother Monkey, you are so boring, you have nothing to do to tease him." Zhu Bajie couldn't see it and said.

Hearing this, Little Stone subconsciously turned to look at him.

Zhu Bajie said: "He is coaxing you, obviously he carried you out last night."

The little guy originally thought that he would not run around after falling asleep, but when he heard this, he puffed up his cheeks and said, "Big stone, you are bad!"

"What's wrong with me? If I knew I would have woken you up last night and let you walk by yourself, why bother to hug you." Monkey King pretended to be displeased.

Xiao Shitou thought about it, and reached out to touch his face and said, "Then why do you say I ran out by myself!"

"Can't I just tease you?"

Probably Sun Wukong was too righteous, the little guy nodded subconsciously when he heard this.

Zhu Bajie couldn't help but came to Tang Seng's side and said: "Master, just look at the elder brother, you know how to bully children."

Tang Seng chuckled, signaling them to stop joking, wash up quickly, and use some dry food for their journey.

There is a water source nearby, which is convenient for washing.

However, it was a bit cold in the morning, and the river water was even icy. When Xiao Shi saw Monkey King approaching with a wet handkerchief, he ran away.

"It's so cold, I don't want to wash my face."

"Where do you have so many troubles?" Sun Wukong said disgusted, but he did not slow to heat the water in the purple gold bowl, pour it on the veil again, and then called him over.

The little guy ran back again and raised his face to cooperate.

After washing, Drifting cooked some porridge with dry food, and the group set off again after eating.

Xiaoxing stayed overnight like this, Zhu Bajie couldn't help thinking about the good days when he didn't do anything in the bhikkhu country and could eat several full meals a day.

Hearing his muttering, Sun Wukong couldn't help saying: "Then you just go back, they will definitely be willing to continue entertaining you."

Hearing this, Tang Seng couldn't help looking at his second apprentice: "Bajie, how can monks covet enjoyment..."

When Zhu Bajie heard the master talking, he quickly explained that he was just talking, and he didn't mean not to learn from the scriptures.

"Second senior brother, are you tired? Do you want to eat a fruit?"

The little guy bouncing in front heard their conversation, turned around and ran back and handed Zhu Bajie a wild fruit.

Zhu Bajie took the fruit and threw it into his mouth, then picked him up.

Little Stone hugged him with one arm, and with the other hand he was busy sharing the fruit with Sun Wukong and the others.

Tang Seng and the others only ate one and refused to take any more. They wanted to leave the rest for the little guy to eat slowly.

After walking like this for more than a month, a big mountain appeared again in front of him.

Probably out of experience, Tang Seng saw the high mountains and subconsciously said: "Wukong, are there any monsters in the mountains ahead?"

Sun Wukong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, thinking that it was rare that he also knew that evil spirits are easy to appear in the deep mountains.

"Master, don't worry, with my grandson here, even monsters can't hurt you!"

After he finished speaking, Xiao Shitou clapped his hands and said, "Yes! Big Shitou is the best at beating monsters!"

While speaking, they had reached the foot of the mountain, and Monkey King sent the little guy to the horse and went to explore the way ahead.

"Help me..."

Coming out of the mountain did not encounter any accidents. Instead, when entering a pine forest, a woman's voice for help suddenly came from nearby.

"Wukong, listen to someone calling for help in front of you."

After Tang Monk finished speaking, Monkey King turned his head and said, "Master, have you forgotten what my old grandson said to you back then? It seems that there is no one's house in such a wilderness, and most likely it is a monster playing tricks."

"The big stone is right~"

After the little guy finished speaking, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but said, "You think everything the elder brother says is right."

"Idiot, if you think it's wrong, save people yourself." Monkey King jumped in front of him and said.

"I didn't say I was wrong." Zhu Bajie was afraid that he would pull his ears again, so he stepped back a few steps, "Master, let's go quickly."

Although Tang Seng is kind-hearted, he is not a fool. Red Boy and King Yinjiao have used such tricks of pretending to ask for help.The former directly took Tang Seng away, but fortunately the little guy could cry and escaped; the latter turned into a Taoist priest, thanks to Monkey King who saw through it and was not fooled.

learn from mistakes.Tang Seng heard his apprentice say that it was a monster who asked for help, so he gave up the idea of ​​saving people in the past.

The monster yelled for a long time but didn't see anyone coming, so he couldn't help cursing inwardly, thinking that they were a group of fake and compassionate monks.

She gritted her teeth for a while, and could only shout again: "Master, what's the use of worshiping Buddha if you don't save yourself from death?"

These words were a bit harsh, Tang Seng stopped his horse instantly and said, "Wukong, saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If she is not a monster, it would be a waste of her life. Let's save her."

"Master, don't be stupid, we haven't even approached, how does she know that we are Buddhist monks?"

Listening to the melodious female voice, Zhu Bajie originally wanted to help with the conversation, but when he heard Monkey King's words, he immediately realized: "Yes, she doesn't have clairvoyance, how can she know that we are monks from such a distance. It must be a monster deliberately taking The words provoked us and tried to trick us into being fooled!"

After he finished speaking, he immediately led the horse and ran forward at a faster pace.

Tang Seng looked around and couldn't see the person calling for help through many trees. He immediately felt that what the two apprentices said made sense.

Knowing that there were monsters, Zhu Bajie ran faster than anyone else, leading the horse and leading the master and the little guy on the horseback away from the vicinity.

Feeling the speed, Xiao Shitou bent his eyes and shouted: "Second Senior Brother, run faster, run faster!"

Originally, Monkey King opened the way in front, but this will throw him behind.

"This idiot."

After he laughed and cursed, he didn't follow immediately, but flew away following the voice calling for help.

A weak and pitiful woman was tied to a tree not far away. When she heard the movement, she thought it was Tang Seng coming, and immediately called for help again.

"Help me..."

"Monster, you want to lie to us, but your skills are a little shallow!" Sun Wukong sneered.

When the monster found that he was the only one coming, he couldn't pretend. When he saw him hitting him with a stick, he could only run away bitterly.

Although he let the monster run away, but thinking of the angry expression on her face before she left, Sun Wukong was in a good mood.

Monkey King didn't get entangled with the monster anymore, but flew back to his master and told him that it was indeed a monster who asked for help.

"Amitabha." Tang Seng asked happily after speaking to Buddha authentically, "What kind of monster is that?"

"She ran fast, my old grandson didn't see it."

"Is it an elephant spirit? Or a lion turned into a monster?" Little Stone guessed.

Hearing the expectation in his tone, Monkey King smiled and said: "Then you may be disappointed, that female monster doesn't look like a lion or an elephant."

Because there were monsters nearby, Sun Wukong didn't dare to go to Huazhai, but kept guarding beside the horse.

Fortunately, there are still some fruits in the little guy's purse, so they can eat a little bit casually.

After walking out of the pine forest and continuing westward for more than 20 miles, the sky has darkened.

"There's a monastery in front, just a place to stay overnight." Zhu Bajie said happily.

When he got close, Tang Seng handed the little guy to Monkey King, and then got off the horse.

The name of this temple is "Zhenhai Chanlin Temple". After looking at it for a while, the Tang monk couldn't help sighing: "What a western temple."

"Master, don't look, let's go in quickly." Zhu Bajie was thinking about eating the vegetarian meal, seeing that he was still appreciating slowly, he couldn't help urging.

The master and apprentice had just stepped into the mountain gate, and the monks in the monastery had already heard the movement and came out to welcome them.

After the two sides greeted each other, Tang Seng expressed his intention to come.

Knowing that he was an eminent monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the headmaster immediately invited him in as he thought of spending the night in his monastery.

After the Tang monk entered the temple, he first went to the main hall to burn incense, and the master ordered the monks to arrange a fast meal.

At noon, I ate some fruit to satisfy my hunger. Not to mention Zhu Bajie, even Xiaoshi's stomach was already growling.

When the vegetarian meal was ready, the little guy picked up the bowl and began to eat.

Sun Wukong saw that he didn't need to be fed this time, he knew he was really hungry, so he didn't eat a bite, so he put vegetables in his bowl first.

"Hurry up and eat the big rock, or the second senior brother will finish eating." The little guy reminded him while he ate.

Hearing his words, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but let out a "hey": "You still think I eat too much, don't you?"

"No, I just let the big stone eat quickly."

But Sun Wukong glanced sideways: "You idiot who eats intestines, why don't you let people say that you can't do it?"

"I'll just eat it, and I won't leave it to you after eating it all!" Zhu Bajie immediately picked up the plate and poured it into the bowl after speaking.

Monkey King felt that he was asking for a beating, so he hit the back of his hand with chopsticks.

"Why are you still fighting while eating?" Tang Seng stopped them helplessly.

After dinner, the host seemed to have the intention of chatting and invited them to have tea in the hall.

When Tang Seng heard him ask about the experience of traveling west, he briefly told some things that happened on the road.

It's a long way from the east to the west, and it's rare to meet a monk from the Tang Dynasty. All the monks in the monastery gathered around and listened.

"As expected of an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty, a poor monk can't match it." The head of the hospital said in admiration.

Tang Seng waved his hand and said: "It is difficult for a poor monk to travel such a long distance alone. Fortunately, he has three apprentices to protect him, so that he can travel west smoothly."

After the two sides chatted for a while, the headmaster couldn't help looking at the little guy who was resting in Sun Wukong's arms after eating and drinking, obviously wondering why he was learning from the scriptures and still had a child with him.

After Tang Seng explained the identity of the little guy, the headmaster nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, he sent someone to invite them to rest in the meditation room.

Buddhist temple.

After Xiao Shitou washed and played on the bed for a while, Sun Wukong patted his butt to remind him to sleep.

"Master hasn't slept yet~" said the little guy who still didn't want to sleep.

Tang Seng did not go to bed yet, but sat behind the scripture table and recited scriptures.

Monkey King pointed to Zhu Bajie who was sleeping soundly next to him and said, "Why don't you compare yourself with this idiot."

Hearing this, Xiao Shitou couldn't help leaning towards the sleeping Zhu Bajie, covering his mouth and laughing: "Second Senior Brother sleeps so fun."

The little guy was also naughty, seeing Zhu Bajie snoring in his sleep, he reached out and pinched his nose on purpose.

"Be careful to wake him up and beat you." Monkey King threatened.

Xiao Shitou withdrew his hand, and said confidently in his tone, "Second Senior Brother won't hit me."

Sun Wukong saw that he was dawdling but did not sleep, so he simply pushed him down on the bed.

The little guy who lay down passively moved his hands and feet for a while at first, and fell asleep after a while.

Sun Wukong waited until he fell asleep, pinched his little face lightly and leaned against the head of the bed to doze off.

As the little guy fell asleep, the meditation room became quiet in an instant, except for the slight sound of Tang Monk flipping through the scriptures.

At this moment, the originally closed window suddenly opened silently, revealing a face, it was the female monster who was beaten away by Monkey King during the day.

She looks beautiful, but when she appears outside the window in the dark, the picture looks a little scary.

After looking at Tang Seng in the room for a while, the monster opened his mouth and blew a gust of wind, and he immediately fell on the scripture table.

Before the monster could make any further moves, Sun Wukong, who was dozing against the head of the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and jumped off the bed.

"who?"

When he came to the window, the monster had already run away, and he could only see a piece of night through the window, so he closed the window again.

Sun Wukong closed the window and turned around. Seeing the master lying on the scripture table, he couldn't help asking.

Tang Seng sat up with his head propped up, feeling uncomfortable, "I'm afraid it's because of the wind and cold."

Sun Wukong heard the words and quickly helped him to bed to rest.

When he was taking care of his master, Zhu Bajie and Drifting were still awake, but the little guy didn't know if he fell asleep and felt that there was no one around him, so he suddenly rubbed his eyes and sat up.

There are three beds in the meditation room, one for Zhu Bajie and Drifting Monk, one for Little Stone and Monkey King, and one for Tang Seng alone.

The little guy sat up and looked at it for a while, and found that the big stone was not sleeping with him but beside the master's bed, so he couldn't help but climb down.

Sun Wukong was standing by the master's bed when he heard footsteps, turned around and saw the little guy running towards him barefoot.

"Why do you wake up when you don't sleep?" He said, reaching out to lift him up and hug him into his arms.

Xiao Shitou put his arms around him and said coquettishly, "I want Big Shitou to sleep with me."

Tang Seng opened his eyes when he heard the voice, only to realize that his apprentice had been guarding him all the time, and hurriedly said, "Wukong, take the little stone to rest."

"I will guard Master, if you want to drink water again, I will take care of you." After finishing speaking, Monkey King told the little guy in his arms, "Master is sick, so you can sleep by yourself tonight, or go to Bajie and the others to make do for the night."

Little Shitou immediately got out of his arms when he heard the words, looked at Tang Seng concerned and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, you go and rest."

The little guy immediately said: "I don't sleep, I also guard the master."

Tang Seng was not willing to let him guard him, shaking his head to coax him to sleep.

Monkey King didn't want him to bother him anymore, he hugged the little guy into his arms and said, "If you don't sleep well, Master won't rest well either."

"Then I'll sleep with Master."

Tang Seng was afraid that the wind and cold would be passed on to him, so he naturally disagreed: "Little Shitou is obedient, go sleep on your own bed."

The little guy was still a little worried, but seeing that he looked weak, he finally went back to his bed obediently and went to sleep.

"Wukong, you should go to rest with him."

Sun Wukong looked back and said: "He has already fallen asleep by himself, Master, you should go to sleep soon."

Tang Seng closed his eyes after hearing this.

Sun Wukong got up and went to help the little guy cover the quilt. When he came back, he saw tears on his face, and he couldn't help lowering his head to care if he was uncomfortable.

"Wukong, as a teacher, I'm afraid that this illness will delay the learning of scriptures..." Tang Seng held his hand and stood up slightly.

"Master, get a good night's sleep, and you'll be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning. If you don't sleep, I'm afraid that Little Stone will come over again when he hears the sound." Monkey King comforted.

Tang Seng nodded, looked at the bed opposite, saw the little guy lying obediently, and then closed his eyes.

The night passed, and the next day, the little stone woke up at dawn.

After the little guy sat on the bed and woke up, his first reaction was to climb down and run to Tang Seng's bedside.

Tang Seng was still awake, and Sun Wukong was resting at the end of the bed.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Shitou couldn't help but turned around and hugged his quilt, and covered Monkey King with all his strength.

Sun Wukong woke up when he heard the footsteps, felt his heart warmed when he noticed his movements, and stretched out his arms and hugged him with the quilt.

"Big stone, you're awake." The little guy covered his mouth and whispered, probably because Tang Seng was still sleeping.

Monkey King didn't answer, but hugged him and lay down on the edge of the bed covered with a quilt.

The little guy leaned in his arms, patted by his big hands, and soon fell asleep again.

When they woke up again, it was already daylight outside.

At this time, Zhu Bajie and the two also got up, and they both blamed themselves for the news that Master was ill last night.

"Master, are you better now?" Zhu Bajie asked while holding his hand.

Tang Seng nodded and said: "It's better to be a teacher, you don't have to worry."

Zhu Bajie saw that his head was sweating from sleep, so he got up immediately and wrung a wet cloth to wipe his face.

"Master, would you like some water?" Little Shitou asked while holding up his own gourd.

"Let Master drink something hot."

After Drifting finished speaking, he got up to pour hot water.

Tang Seng saw his disciples and little fellows come to take care of him. Although he still felt uncomfortable physically, he was very happy in his heart.

Seeing that he was not fully recovered, Monkey King advised him to rest for another day.

"Yes, it's not too long to learn the scriptures." Zhu Bajie agreed.

Tang Seng wanted to leave today, but he couldn't get out of bed, so he could only agree.

While they were washing their hands, there were bursts of crying outside.

"Wukong, what's going on outside?" Tang Seng couldn't help but raise his head when he heard the crying in the temple just after drinking the water.

"Wait for my grandson to go out and have a look."

Monkey King walked out on his front foot, and Xiao Shitou followed him on his back foot. Following the sound of crying, he saw a group of monks crying together.

"Why are you crying so early in the morning?"

When the host heard his voice, he turned around wiping away his tears.

Monkey King saw the corpse on the ground with sharp eyes along the position he moved out of the way, and before he could speak, he quickly covered the little guy's eyes and hugged him.

"What happened to the big rock?"

"It's okay, just close your eyes obediently." After finishing speaking, Monkey King looked at the corpses on the ground and asked the homeowner what was going on.

The headmaster said sadly: "The monster came from nowhere and killed the monks in my monastery."

When Monkey King heard the words, subconsciously the window that was opened last night and the monster he met in the pine forest appeared in his mind subconsciously.

Damn it, I should have thought of a way to beat her to death if I knew it at that time!

Seeing that the monster followed here, Monkey King felt a little regretful.

"Big Rock, can I open my eyes?"

Monkey King didn't want to scare the little guy in his arms, so he took him back to the meditation room first.

"Wukong?" Tang Seng immediately showed a questioning expression when he saw him come back.

He was ill, and Monkey King was afraid that he would get worse if he was frightened again, so he told him that it was just two monks in the monastery who had an accident.

Even though Tang Seng didn't know exactly what happened, he recited the scriptures for the two monks with compassion, and lay down to rest after breakfast.

Sun Wukong watched him fall asleep, and whispered to the little guy: "I will discuss something with Bajie and the others. You sit here and take care of Master for a while."

"Okay." Xiao Shitou agreed without hesitation, and sat on the side of the bed seriously.

Sun Wukong beckoned the two juniors to sit down at the table and told them what happened in the temple and his guess.

When Zhu Bajie heard that a monster ran into the monastery to eat people, he felt that it must be an evil monster, and immediately said: "Then let's go quickly."

"Master hasn't fully recovered, how can we go?" Sun Wu gave him a blank look.

Zhu Bajie said: "Then what do you say?"

Sun Wukong lowered his voice and told them to take good care of Master tonight, while he changed his appearance to meet the monster for a while to see if he could get rid of her.

"What if the monster eats you up? If you want me to say, let's guard Master together, and hurry up when Master recovers tomorrow."

"That monster has obviously been eyeing Master, so there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days." Monkey King said.

Drifting felt that what he said made sense, and nodded in agreement with his idea.

They all agreed, and Zhu Bajie could only agree.
