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

"Wukong, since we have tied up people, let's go quickly." Tang Seng said worried that he would hurt people's lives.

"Don't worry, master, you have to ask where they come from."

After Sun Wukong helped him to sit down, he blew his breath and untied the body-fixing technique.

"They can move again!" Little Stone clapped his hands when he saw the robbers struggling on the tree.

"Grandpa, please forgive me!"

"We have blind eyes, grandpa will forgive us this time..."

The robbers had seen Monkey King's abilities, and they were so frightened that they begged for mercy repeatedly, regretting that they shouldn't have troubled them.

"Be honest, where are you robbers? How many things have you robbed? Have you ever killed anyone?"

"Grandpa! We are not robbers, but children of a good family..."

"Nonsense, the sons of good people will come to block the road and rob? If you don't explain it properly, don't blame my old grandson for being rude!" Monkey King rolled up his sleeves and said.

Xiao Shitou nodded and said: "That's right, if you don't talk about it, Big Shitou will hit you!"

"We are really the children of a good family. We just ruined our family business by drinking and gambling, and we are short of money to spend, so we discussed how to get some money..."

According to the robbers, they did this kind of thing for the first time last night, and they robbed Kou Yuan's house.The robbers were originally dividing up the spoils around here, but when they saw them passing by, they recognized the monk who had left Kou Yuanwai's house yesterday, so they came to block the way again.

"What! Kou Yuanwai is so kind, you actually robbed his house!" Tang Seng stood up in shock when he heard the robbers' explanation.

"We also saw Kou Yuanwai showing off his family's wealth yesterday, so we became greedy for a while, but only seeking money did not hurt their family's life. Now that we know our mistake, I beg a few grandpas to spare our lives..."

"Where is the thing you snatched?" Sun Wukong asked sharply.

Compared with money, life is naturally more important, the robbers quickly pointed to the valley not far away and said: "Over there."

When Zhu Bajie heard the words, he immediately ran towards the direction he pointed, and Xiao Shitou followed curiously.

After a while, one big and one small came back carrying a cloth bag.

"Look at the big rock, we found it!"

Seeing that he was lifting it vigorously, Monkey King reached out to take the cloth bag and opened it to look at it.

The cloth bag is full of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as some valuable utensils.

"This is the pot from Grandpa Kou's house!" Little Stone recognized one of the golden pots and immediately pointed it out.

Tang Seng also looked down, and found several utensils that he had seen in the Kou Mansion.

"Amitabha." After clasping his hands together and saying "Buddha," he couldn't help sighing, "How could a good man like Kou Yuanwai encounter such a disaster?"

"Master, he can't break the money, so let's send him the things back." Sun Wukong said.

Tang Seng had this intention, and couldn't help smiling when he heard this.

But regarding the handling of the robbers, Sun Wukong thought that he would have to be taught a lesson if he said less, but Tang Seng thought that they were the first offenders, and he knew their mistakes, so he thought they should be let go.

The robbers didn't know whether it was real regret or fake regret, and they swore to God that they would never do it again.

In the end, the ropes on them were still untied, and a group of robbers kowtowed and fled in all directions.As for Tang Seng and the others, they returned with Kou Yuan's family's financial assets, preparing to return them to their original owners.

"Little Shitou, now you have something sweet to eat again." Zhu Bajie probably felt that after sending these things back, the Kou Mansion should treat them well, it was rare that he didn't complain about carrying heavy things.

The little guy was bouncing and walking beside him, he couldn't help laughing when he heard this, he stretched out his hand and said, "Then I want to eat three!"

"If you eat three, I will eat thirty."

"This idiot knows how to eat." Sun Wukong was very funny when he heard the conversation between the two of them.

When they turned back, the Kou family went to the government early in the morning to hand in the certificate.

The governor of Tongtai Mansion received the certificate and felt that the monks who eat fast and recite the Buddha would not do such evil things, especially when he heard that the few monks in the Tang Dynasty left yesterday, they were determined not to be pestered by Kou Yuanwai.

He originally thought that the Kou Mansion might have made a mistake, but the housekeeper of the Kou Mansion swore that he had seen it with his own eyes, and the governor could only send a team of officers and soldiers to bring him back for interrogation.

Over there, Tang Monk and his disciples were walking back, and here the officers and soldiers went out of the city to chase them, but the two sides collided not far outside the city.

"There are a lot of people in front, maybe the robbers are coming again!" Seeing the officers and soldiers with weapons, Xiao Shitou subconsciously thought that there were robbers again,

Tang Seng smiled and said: "That's not a robber, it should be an officer and soldier who catches a thief."

He did not admit his mistake, but it was a pity that he would never have thought that they were the "thieves" who were arrested by the officers and soldiers.

Sun Wukong noticed that the group of officers and soldiers speeded up when they saw them, and guessed something as soon as they rolled their eyes. Seeing Master, he could still laugh, and said softly: "I'm afraid it's Master's disaster coming again."

He is a smart monkey, if he didn't understand when he first learned the scriptures, later on he has seen that his master is in trouble every step of the way, he should be in trouble everywhere, and it is not unusual to encounter anything.

Sure enough, as he expected, the group of officers and soldiers immediately surrounded them as they trotted up.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Shitou couldn't help frowning when he saw them blocking the surrounding aggressively.

Sun Wukong reached out and hugged him into his arms, patted his back comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, it's fine."

While he was coaxing the little guy, the officers and soldiers had already snatched the conspicuous cloth bag from Zhu Bajie's hand.

"It really is a robber, take it away!"

The officers and soldiers checked and found that the cloth bags were full of gold, silver and jewels, and escorted them back to the government without saying a word.

On the way to the government, Xiao Shitou saw the serious expressions of the officers and soldiers, so he couldn't help whispering in Sun Wukong's ear: "Big Shitou, where are they taking us?"

"Probably have to go to the government for a walk."

Sun Wukong's tone was very relaxed, obviously he didn't take this matter to heart.

Sure enough, after entering the city, they were taken directly into the government.

The governor thinks that monks should not commit murder and looting, so the first reaction after getting the stolen goods is——

"You bandits are so brave, you dare to pretend to be monks!"

"Amitabha, my lord misunderstood, the poor monk and his disciples are not robbers." Tang Seng took a step forward and explained.

"If it wasn't a robber, how could the stolen goods on the ground be in your hands?"

"My lord, these things were taken back by my apprentice from the robbers. We know that they belong to Mr. Kou's family, so we are going to send them back to him."

"Where is the robber?"

"The robbers are first-time offenders, and they have all repented and said they will not commit another crime. The poor monk asked his disciples to let them go."

When the governor heard this, he sneered and said, "Do you think I believe it or not?"

Sun Wukong stood behind with the little guy in his arms as if he was watching a play. Hearing the official's rhetorical question, he couldn't help but look at his master with a smile in his eyes, "see if you dare to show kindness indiscriminately".

"Monks don't tell lies, but poor monks tell the truth."

Tang Seng didn't notice the gaze cast by his apprentice, he only wanted to explain clearly to the adults.However, the governor decided that he was lying and didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore.

"Look at this paper for yourself!"

Seeing the governor throw down the certificate, Sun Wukong felt that his attitude was not good, so he blew on purpose, so the certificate flew back to his hand.

Xiao Shitou saw that he was making trouble, so he couldn't help lying in his arms and laughing, covering his mouth.

"Hey?"

The governor tried several times but failed to throw out the certificate. He felt that he had seen a ghost, so he could only order the people around him to deliver the certificate to Tang Seng.

Tang Seng unfolded the certificate and looked at it, and suddenly his face turned pale with shock: "This..."

"What's the matter, Master?" Seeing his expression, Xiao Shitou couldn't help leaning over, showing a worried expression.

"Look, Kou Yuanwai is dead, and he said we killed him!" Tang Seng showed the certificate to his disciples in shock.

When they gathered around to read the case, the governor couldn't help but said: "You bandits, Kou Yuanwai kindly entertained you, but you will repay your kindness!"

"My lord, it's really not us..."

After Tang Seng finished speaking, he looked at his apprentice, hoping that he could explain.

Monkey King didn't speak, but Xiao Shitou ran down actively and said: "We are not robbers, you talk nonsense!"

He had been hugged by Monkey King before, and the governor didn't realize it, but now that the little guy was standing on the ground, his eyes suddenly fell on him.

The little guy's eyes were clear and he was full of aura. The governor's first reaction when he saw him was that kids shouldn't lie, so he beckoned him to his side: "Come here, kid."

Little Shitou was not afraid of life, so he ran forward immediately.

"Let me ask you, are you all robbers?"

"We are not robbers!"

"Then who are you?"

"Didn't you see? Master, they are monks."

"Nonsense, you have hair, how can you be a monk. Children can't lie, tell the truth, who are you guys? Did you rob these things from the Kou Mansion?"

"I didn't say I'm a monk, I mean Master and the others are monks! The things were stolen by robbers. We met the robbers when we were walking this morning. The big stone tied the robbers up. The second senior brother and I..." Xiaoshi simply said Let me tell you what happened this morning.

The governor saw that he spoke clearly, it didn't seem like he was telling a lie, and he felt that such a young child should not be able to tell such a true lie, so he couldn't help frowning.

"Then tell me, where were you last night?"

"Yesterday we were at the Huaguang Institute..."

The dilapidated Huaguang Xingyuan is an interesting place in the eyes of the little guy. When he talks about it, his voice rises.

The governor is a local, so he naturally knew that there was a deserted Huaguang courtyard outside the city. Hearing what he said carefully, he couldn't help but think about it.

Tang Seng saw this, stepped forward and said: "Little Shitou's words are true, I hope you will learn from me."

The governor originally wanted to order someone to beat them dozens of times to make them confess, but now hearing what the little guy said, he felt that the matter was still suspicious, but it was not good for people to do it, lest they would be tortured into tricks.

But after all, with all the witnesses and material evidence, it is obviously impossible to let them go just like that. In the end, the governor waved his hand and said, "Lock them up first."

prison.

Xiao Shitou looked at the dark surroundings and said unhappily, "Why did they lock us up?"

"Don't be afraid, there will be a time when the official invites us out." Monkey King comforted.

The jailer who escorted them in laughed at this and said, "You robber, are you still dreaming? My lord is here to invite you out, and you can just laugh if you don't kill your heads!"

"You are the robber!" Little Stone retorted.

"My child, you are very courageous. You dare to talk to me like that when you are in prison."

After one jailer finished speaking, another guard patted him and said, "Okay, what are you fussing about with a child?"

They really didn't care about a child, and they took the rope to tie people up after they were all sent to a cell.

Sun Wukong saw the rope in their hands and blew it directly.

"What's going on? What the hell!"

Seeing the rope twisting in his hand like it was alive, the jailer was so frightened that he threw the rope out.

"Brother must have done it." Drifting whispered in Zhu Bajie's ear, Zhu Bajie also guessed it, and couldn't help laughing.

The two jailers still didn't give up, they turned around and found some ropes again.

As long as Monkey King is not happy, it is useless for them to exchange a hundred ropes.

"Hey, I still don't believe in this evil!"

One of the two guards was quite serious, and he didn't care about being afraid of getting angry with the rope, so he insisted on grabbing the twisting rope to tie Tang Seng and the others.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong could only say: "The ropes are already like this, let's not tie them up, we can't get out since the prison door is closed anyway."

"That won't work." The jailer turned around after speaking, "Unless you are filial."

"What is filial piety?" Little Stone asked.

The jailer said: "Just pay some money, so that we can be comfortable, and you can be comfortable too."

The little guy had money in his purse, and he wanted to take it out immediately after he understood it, but was stopped by Monkey King.

"I don't have any money, but I have a baby." After finishing speaking, Monkey King took out a bundle and handed it to them.

Tang Seng saw that it was a burden of colorful cassocks and customs clearance documents, and hurried over to stop him: "Wukong, how can you give these to them!"

The jailer wasn't sure if there were treasures in the bundle, but seeing his anxious look, he immediately went out with the bundle and closed the door.

"Wukong, what are you doing, oh..."

Tang Seng saw the jailer leaving with the bundle, heaved a long sigh and said, "That's the cassock given by Guanyin Bodhisattva, how can you just give it to someone else?"

"Master, a good man doesn't suffer from immediate losses, so just give it."

"Wukong, you are not like this usually, how can you be wronged like this today?"

"Then what can we do, they are all a group of mortals, and my old grandson can kill them with just a touch, so don't you have to talk about it again then."

Of course, it’s one thing to deal with mortals. The main reason is that Sun Wukong saw that this was a calamity he deserved, and thought that he was going to Lingshan soon, so he should stop messing around, so as not to fail to get the scriptures.

"Master, don't worry, we'll just get the cassock back." Seeing Tang Seng's frowning expression, Xiao Shitou stepped forward to hug him and comforted him.

Tang Seng lowered his head and touched his face, his tone was still puzzled: "Little Shitou still knows how to defend himself in the government office today, but your elder brother is usually so capable, but this time he is willing to suffer wronged."

"If you want me to say that it's not Master, you have nothing to do. You have to let those robbers go, otherwise there is no such thing." Zhu Bajie said.

"It's true that you are a teacher. I heard the robbers say that they didn't hurt anyone. Who knows that such a good person as Kou Yuanwai was killed by them. It's just strange, why does the Kou Mansion's certificate say that people were killed by us... ..."

Tang Seng thought that Kou Yuanwai died at the hands of the robbers, but he let the robbers go, and suddenly felt guilty.

Sun Wukong also said: "Originally, my old grandson wanted to kill the robbers. Master, you said that punishing them is a matter for the government. Today, I forgot and let them go."

"It's my fault. I'm going to come back. I should let you take the robber with him and release him after interrogation by the government." Tang Seng is not a person who never admits his mistake, but it's too late to regret it now.

The cell suddenly fell silent, Xiao Shi leaned against him and stretched out his hand to comfort him, patting him non-stop.

Zhu Bajie is a person who doesn't worry about anything, and has already found a place to lie down.Drifting didn't know why the elder brother came to jail obediently, he guessed that the master should have this difficulty, so he just honestly found a place to sit.

On the other side, the jailers unpacked their bundles immediately after they left, and widened their eyes when they saw the radiant cassocks.

"Baby, it really is a baby!"

The two admired it for a while, and suddenly found the customs clearance document under the cassock.

"what is this?"

"It's probably the book that those robbers used to keep their black accounts."

The jailers were not interested in the customs clearance document, so they put it aside after a glance, and started scrambling for the brocade cassock.

Their noisy voices attracted the prison officer. As soon as the other party came over, he saw the colorful cassocks emitting a glow, and immediately walked to the table.

Seeing that they were discovered by their immediate superiors, the jailers hurriedly offered their treasures and said, "This is the treasure that those robbers insisted on giving us, as well as the booklets they kept for black accounts."

Hearing what they said, the prison officer took the booklet after looking at the cassock.After all, he had better eyesight than the jailer, and found that there were many precious stamps in the book, and felt that this book did not look like a black account book.

After thinking about it, he simply packed the things in a bag and prepared to show the things to the governor.

As time passed slowly, Little Stone fell asleep next to Tang Seng.

As for Sun Wukong, others are still sitting in the same place, but the soul is out of the body.

He flew to the governor's mansion with his soul, and saw that the governor was taking off his clothes to take a rest, and deliberately made trouble so that the other party couldn't take it off for a long time.

The governor took off his coat several times in a row, and after blowing out the candles for a long time, he was finally able to lie down and rest, but there was a knock on the door outside.

It was none other than the prison officer who took the burden from the prison guard.

The governor felt a little annoyed, but he was afraid that he would have something important to do with him, so he hurriedly got dressed.

"My lord, what are these?" The prison officer opened the bag after entering the door.

As soon as the governor saw the Jinlan cassock, he felt that the person with such a treasure must be an eminent monk. After reading the customs clearance document, he slapped his thigh and said, "It's broken! They are really eminent monks from the Tang Dynasty, but they were locked up by us as robbers." !"

Sun Wukong also likes to play tricks on people. He obviously regretted seeing him, and deliberately stretched out a big foot to pretend to be a wandering god, saying that they wronged the Buddha who learned the scriptures wrongly, and alarmed the gods of the three realms to let him go quickly.

The governor originally felt that he had caused trouble because he shut down the eminent monk from the Tang Dynasty, but when he heard that the gods were disturbed, he was so frightened that he quickly saluted and apologized.

"I know I'm wrong, so I'm going to zoom in on Tang Gaoseng..."

Seeing that everyone else was trembling, Monkey King left with a snicker, turned around and ran to the Kou Mansion again.

In the Kou mansion, the second wife, Kou Liang, and Julia are still guarding Kou Yuanwai.

When Sun Wukong came over, he blew a gust of dark wind directly, and pretended to be the voice of Kou Yuanwai to ask them why they wronged the good people.

Julia and Kou Liang recognized that it was their father's voice, and apart from being startled at first, they were not afraid anymore.

Hearing that "father" said that Tang Seng and the others were wronged, Kou Liang immediately said that he would go to the government office to deport the certificate tomorrow.

Sun Wukong thought that the governor would also go to prison to release people, and left Kou's mansion after achieving his goal.

Before he went back to the cell, Xiao Shitou woke up from a nap, rubbed his eyes and ran to him.

"Big stone, why don't you speak, big stone?"

Drifting asked: "Eldest brother, don't you want to fall asleep?"

"But the big stone has his eyes open!"

When Tang Seng heard the little guy's words, he couldn't help getting up and walking over, and found that the big apprentice was really motionless with his eyes open.

"Wukong, what's wrong with you, Wukong?"

Sun Wukong was returning to his body at this time, and said with a smile: "Master, I'm fine."

"Big Shitou, what happened to you just now?" Little Shitou stretched out his arms and hugged him tightly, obviously still worried.

"Master should have this disaster in prison, but at this time the disaster is over, my old grandson just went to find someone to invite us out."

When Tang Seng heard this and was about to ask in detail, he heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the cell.

"Hurry up."

The governor urged people to open the prison door, and apologized: "Your official has no eyes, and mistook the eminent monk for a robber. Please forgive me!"

"Now it's time for my old grandson to torture you. The case is unclear and the innocent are wronged. What should I do?" Sun Wukong jumped in front of him with the little boy in his arms and asked.

Xiao Shitou also imitated him and asked with a straight face: "What should you do?"

"It's the lower official's failure to judge the case that caused several eminent monks to be wronged. Please forgive me, please forgive me." Seeing his angry appearance, the governor was so anxious that his head was sweating, he quickly explained, "The lower official didn't feel that much at first. An eminent monk would do this kind of evil thing for money, and it was the Kou family who submitted the complaint and insisted that it was you who did it, so I wronged a good person!"

It was getting late at this time, the governor made apologies after explaining clearly, at least he asked them to go to the mansion to rest first, and then go to the Kou mansion for interrogation tomorrow.

After a day of tossing around, Tang Seng and the others only had breakfast, and finally had a late dinner after they came out of the cell.

It was already two shifts after they had eaten and drank enough to take a bath. However, the little guy who had slept in the prison before was not sleepy at all, and was rolling and playing on the bed.

"Little Shitou, go to bed, and go to the Kou Mansion tomorrow." Tang Seng reminded.

When Kou Yuanwai passed away, they naturally had to go to the Kou Mansion to worship and find out the truth by the way.

Little Shitou didn't want to sleep yet, until Sun Wukong raised his hand and slapped his butt, then he put down his raised foot and lay down obediently.

Early the next morning, before they went to the Kou Mansion, the Kou Mansion sent someone to deliver the petition.As the name suggests, the petition for dismissal is a petition to withdraw the lawsuit. Obviously, after the appearance of "Kou Yuanwai" last night, his son Kou Liang hurriedly wrote the petition for dismissal.

At this point in the matter, naturally the Kou Mansion's deportation petition cannot be ignored by the government, and the governor still accompanied Tang Monk and his disciples to the Kou Mansion as originally planned.

Tang Seng was a little reluctant to believe that Kou Yuanwai was really dead, but he didn't accept this fact until he saw the mourning hall.
