The moment she almost fell, the bird on her shoulder suddenly disappeared, and the next moment, a strong arm supported half of her body firmly.

Tao Zhen didn't fall into the stream, only a handful of water splashed up by someone who stepped on her suddenly wet her shoes and the hem of her skirt.

"... Great Sage, is that you?"

She asked softly with her face sideways, a little in disbelief.

Sun Wukong was looking down at his wet legs as if he couldn't bear it, his tail was raised high so as not to fall into the stream, when Taozhen asked, he turned his head slightly and said uncomfortably: "Yes."

Then he gave Tao Zhen's hand away, and let go after she took two steps back and stood on the shore.

For a while, the two were relatively silent.

The atmosphere was really awkward, Tao Zhen touched the tip of her nose with her hand, and said in a staggered way, "Great Sage... why did you come here? Shouldn't you follow the elders and the others to go west?"

Monkey King stepped ashore and found a clean place to sit down.

"...Master said that he hadn't thanked you well yet, so he was worried, so he asked my old grandson to come and visit your injury."

Although one shouldn't expect too much, after hearing what he said, Tao Zhen's heart was still empty, and then there were layers of disappointment, a little heavy.

"...I see." She forced a smile, "Tell the elders not to worry, I'm much better now."

Sun Wukong looked at her: "Can you see it?"

Tao Zhen was choked up by this question: "...Not yet, but it should recover soon."

can see?It's unlikely that she could see her inconvenient movement and nearly falling down just now... After the Great Sage turned into a bird, she should be able to see her movements clearly.Tao Zhen muttered a few words in her heart, but her face was flat, without any disturbance.

Sun Wukong looked at the girl in front of him with black braids hanging down her shoulders, and felt that his head was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say or ask.

"Peach tree spirit." He suddenly called out.

Tao Zhen hurriedly responded.

"You—" Sun Wukong paused in the middle of speaking, and couldn't help raising his hand to scratch the side of his face impatiently, "What is your origin?"

Tao Zhen thumped slightly in her heart.

After all, this problem cannot be avoided.

"Didn't I tell you my origin from the very beginning?"

"Then how can you know everything about the journey of learning scriptures like the back of your hand?" He had just figured out a trick just now, and his body was completely dry at the moment, but when the breeze blows, it should be comfortable, but now it can't make people calm, "Other things for now It can be said that you thought of a way to avoid the danger, but how did you know Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire and the Five Elements Car so clearly?"

Tao Zhen pursed her lips, took a deep breath and said, "Great Sage."

"...I can't say."

Seeing the struggling look on her face, Sun Wukong opened his mouth to say something, but before he could say anything, Taozhen turned around carefully: "Great Sage, thank you for making a special trip here, and thank you Elder Tang for your kindness and kindness. You have taken care of me recently. Go back quickly, the elder will be in danger after all if you are not by his side."

After speaking, he took steps to move forward.

"Peach tree spirit, my old grandson didn't doubt your intentions." A somewhat impatient sentence came from behind, "I just asked. At first I wondered if the Bodhisattva sent you here, but I didn't know that until that day."

At the end, I added dryly: "...It's not that I don't believe you."

Taozhen's eyes suddenly turned slightly sore, she blinked quickly, and then said "huh".Tears faded slightly, she closed her eyes and opened them again, when she was about to say something, her eyes suddenly lit up——

Green bamboo moss, scattered flowers and plants.

She can see!

Under such circumstances, the eyes turned better without warning.

Tao Zhen quickly turned around, facing the figure not far away.

Sun Wukong didn't notice anything unusual, he thought Tao Zhen was still sullen, but just as he didn't know what to say, he suddenly turned around, her eyes still red.

"Peach, peach tree spirit," he was stunned, "don't cry..."

As he spoke, he slapped the top of his head indiscriminately, not daring to look at her.Knowing that she "couldn't see" and didn't worry about losing face, she grinned angrily at a bamboo next to her.

Tao Zhen looked at the Great Sage in front of him with a messy monkey hair and a face full of discomfort, her heart suddenly seemed to be bumped lightly by something.

...It seems kind of cute.

All the depression in my heart seemed to disappear in an instant.

She turned her head and raised her hand to touch her face guiltily.

"I, I didn't cry." Tao Zhen found a lame excuse, "... when I turned around, sand fell into my eyes."

Then there was a long period of relative silence, Taozhen just felt that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet, and she didn't intend to tell him that her eyesight had recovered.

"Great Sage," she tried her best to pretend that her eyes were out of focus, and broke the silence, "Will the elder run into any danger when you come to Mount Putuo?"

"My old grandson has monkey hair, so he will know when there is any danger."

"... Oh." She replied dryly, and nodded again.

Taozhen pretended to inadvertently turn her head and gaze, then quickly looked away, and finally said something that had been brewing for a long time: "Great Sage, what you asked me just now... just pretend that I have some special skills, That’s why I can learn a lot of things. But when I think about it carefully, I’m wrong. Every one of the 81, [-], [-], and [-] tribulations has its own motives. If I try to be clever and help you, these tribulations will lose their meaning.”

She has figured this out these days.

Every time she comes up with an idea, it seems that the four masters and apprentices have suffered a lot less, but things will always have other unexpected developments, as if they always want to turn the ordeal back on track.

For example, the nine-tailed fox who saw Yinjiao's corpse came to make trouble, and the red boy captured her to threaten and deal with the Great Sage.

Elder Tang seems to be much safer, but she has shared a lot of bad luck.Thinking of this, Tao Zhen couldn't laugh or cry.

"Anyway, thanks to your help these days." At the end, Monkey King added, "What are you blaming yourself for? What can you do wrong?"

Tao Zhen smiled.

At this moment, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, and when his eyes met, Tao Zhen broke out in a cold sweat, but she didn't dare to look away, so she could only pretend to be looking at a certain place at random.

Sun Wukong didn't doubt it, but said hesitantly: "Then... my old grandson will leave now."

go……

Taozhen was originally reluctant to give up, but now that her eyes have recovered, she struggled even more: "My lord, wait a minute."

"I still have something to say." She spoke quickly, "You don't have to feel guilty. Since I made up my mind to go on the road with you, I have already planned what kind of hardships I will go through. Since going on the road together means sharing joys and sorrows, What else is there to be involved?"

"During this time, I have been very happy. Much happier than in Taolin."

The tail behind Sun Wukong curled slightly and then lowered. He turned his face and rubbed his ears, and finally made up his mind: "But this road is still very long... For you, it's better to stay in Taolin."

"My old grandson is gone, Peach Tree Spirit, take care." After saying that, she turned around and jumped onto the somersault cloud as if fleeing, and then glanced at Tao Zhen, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Tao Zhen stood there in a daze.

After a while, a wry smile appeared on her lips, then she raised her hand to her eyes, and sniffed again.

This time... is it true that we can't see each other again?

It took her a while to suppress the chaotic thoughts in her heart, and turned around wearily.

A flash of white came into view.

Tao Zhen was startled, then said in a daze: "—— Bodhisattva?"

Avalokitesvara was looking at her with a smile: "Has the eye healed?"

"...Yes," Tao Zhen said honestly, "he has recovered, thank you Bodhisattva."

After speaking, he thought of the Great Sage who had just left. He was a little guilty at first, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of what could be hidden from Guanyin in this purple bamboo forest?

Tao Zhen was relieved again.

Guanyin didn't mention who was here just now, but asked her with a smile: "Do you want to see me?"

After Tao Zhen nodded and answered yes, she nodded lightly: "Then follow me."
