[Journey to the West] The male protagonist is under a lot of pressure

Chaixi naturally knew what she wanted.

Regardless of Sun Wukong's suspicious eyes, she insisted not to walk side by side with him, and instead just followed behind him.According to Sun Wukong's habits, although he may pay attention to her movements from time to time, he will not stare at her all the time.At this moment, for Chai Xi, it would make her more relaxed.

... Otherwise she would be too nervous.

When Zhu Bajie ran over, he didn't tell them where Tang San was hiding now, but looking at Monkey King's appearance, it was very clear, and he thought he had inquired again when he went to fetch water.

It is not too far from the front hall. After all, Baoxiang Kingdom is not a big country, at least it is far behind the Tang Dynasty in the east.As a modern person who lived on that land more than 1000 years later, Chaixi wondered if he should be... proud of it to some extent?

Compared with the subtle but erratic pride, Chai Xi felt more embarrassment and embarrassment.

Fortunately, she had cooled down with cold water just now, and her mood has calmed down a lot. At least when she recalled what happened just now, she wouldn't turn red all over again.

What happened just now...

Chai Xi unconsciously put her fingers on her lips and rubbed them lightly. The texture touched by her fingertips was dry and soft. She stared at the back of Monkey King in front of her, and suddenly recalled those two kisses.There is still something throbbing in my heart, and compared to the previous madness, the feeling it spreads at this time is extremely sweet.

"Five Elements," he turned around suddenly, she was touched by Sun Wukong as she was stroking his lips, his smile looked much more playful and proud than when he was under the tree just now, "What are you doing?" What?"

"It's nothing."

This time Chai Xi learned to behave herself, she pretended not to care and put down her hand.She put her hands behind her back, decided to pretend that she was not that nervous, and didn't care much about the close contact between the two parties. Instead, she caught up with Monkey King in two or three steps, completely throwing away what she had just said. in the back of the head.

It's a pity that the other party completely remembered that sentence: "Just now, didn't you tell Lao Sun not to walk beside me?"

"No, I've changed my mind now." Chai Xi was calm on the surface, but his heart began to pound again, "Sure enough, it's more at ease to walk next to the Great Sage, and...and I want to do it."

After she said this, both of them fell silent, and neither of them spoke first.However, the lingering atmosphere between the two is not embarrassment, but a completely different clarity and connection.They are indeed enjoying the silence, allowing other unusual things to slowly grow in it.

Then, they came to the place where Tang Sanzang was.

Long before Sun Wukong kissed her for the first time, Chaixi saw Princess Baihuaxiu hurried away with the child.For this, Chai Xi was of course somewhat fortunate in her heart, if they saw such a scene, she would really want to get into the cracks in the ground.But that's not the point. According to Chai Xi's guess, since the king and queen of Baoxiang Kingdom are not in this room, they should be meeting their dear grandchildren.

"...Wukong, female Bodhisattva."

There were only Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing in the room. When she and Monkey King walked in, the originally not so relaxed atmosphere seemed to condense even more heavily.The lightness of Sun Wukong talking and laughing just now is gone, he just stood beside Chaixi expressionlessly, facing Tang Sanzang's nod of greeting, and symbolically called "Master".

"The poor monk can sit here like this now," Tang Sanzang continued to speak in order to stop the stalemate in the atmosphere. Of course, it is not ruled out that he is really thanking them, "Thanks to the two rescuers. If not You repelled the monster and undid the spell on the poor monk, I am afraid that the poor monk is still imprisoned in that cage."

"The elder is in trouble, we should do a favor, and it's not in vain to take care of each other on the road for many days." Seeing that Monkey King had no intention of answering the words, Chai Xi answered the words with a smile on his face, "Fortunately, the oath was uncountable back then, and it saved the elder from suffering in the Avici Hell."

She directly brought up the oath Tang Sanzang swore in Baihuling to show his determination that day, and Tang Sanzang's face inevitably turned green and white.

She is undoubtedly provoking with these words, and she doesn't want to bear this situation any longer.Although Chai Xi is not a particularly tough character, how could she not be angry at all when something like that happened. Before leaving Baihuling, the reason why she didn't say anything too violent was because she was more or less concerned about Monkey King's feelings.

But at this time, Chai Xi felt that it was better to clarify some things.At least, you have to stab Tang Sanzang.

"At that time, it was indeed the fault of the poor monk." After a moment of silence, Tang Sanzang sighed, but admitted very frankly, "After thinking about it, the poor monk felt that even though there were books that were demoted first, the journey of learning the scriptures would be difficult." But Wukong and Miss Chai are indispensable, if you can go on the road with us—”

"No, my answer is still the same as before." Before he finished speaking, Sun Wukong interrupted directly. He glanced at Chaixi, as if worried that she would change her mind, "Since the demotion has been issued, Lao Sun I can no longer continue to go to learn scriptures together with a shy face. Wu Xing, I entrusted you with the depreciation book before, so it should still be with you, right?"

When the eyes met, Chai Xi understood, and she nodded: "I have been carrying it with me since Huaguo Mountain was punished. If necessary, I will take it out."

She made a gesture to reach into her arms. Of course, she did put the book in the middle of her coat, but she didn't really plan to take it out, there was no need for it.

Sure enough, within a few seconds after she just raised her hand, Tang Sanzang had already spoken to stop her.

"That's not necessary," he discouraged, "after all, it was written by the poor monk himself, and the poor monk understands it better than anyone else."

After saying this, Tang Sanzang hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "It's just that if we meet again a monster as powerful as before, even though Wu Neng and Wu Jing are in front, I'm worried that we won't be able to resist it."

The implication is nothing more than wanting to seek a sense of security from Monkey King.

"Old Sun also spoke beforehand," Sun Wukong seemingly casually took over the conversation, "Even if I am Old Sun, I may not be able to really protect you. Even if I really go on the road with you, I will not I can't protect you all the time, I'm afraid that when Lao Sun is resisting monsters, someone else will snatch you away."

"That day, I asked to at least escort you out of Baihu Ridge because the monster in human form was not completely dead and could still come and harm you at any time, but you refused me, Master." He changed the subject, "However, After all, the master-student friendship is a relationship. As the saying goes, "one day is a teacher and a life is a father". The yellow-robed monster will go to heaven to receive punishment. Master, you don't have to worry too much. If you are really worried, the old grandson can send you off again. One ride, I will protect you for a day and a night."

After saying that, he glanced at Chai Xi, but Chai Xi shrugged indifferently.She knew Sun Wukong's intention to do this, and fully understood his feelings at this time, so she just nodded.

One day and one night is just a time limit for Tang Sanzang to continue to learn Buddhist scriptures with peace of mind, and it can also be regarded as a repayment for his kindness in rescuing Monkey King at the boundary between Datang and Tatar—although this knowledge makes Chai Xi feel a little uncomfortable ——And after that, the two of them can write off their grievances.

After this day and night, she returned to Huaguo Mountain with the Great Sage again, and then, then...

"Miss Chai?"

While she was still in a daze, she suddenly heard Monk Sha call her, and Chai Xi looked to her side after hearing the sound, only to realize that she had fallen behind unknowingly.

"Brother called you," Monk Sha said gently, Chai Xi glanced at Monkey King who was walking in the front, he turned his head, his expression seemed to be dissatisfied, so that she almost missed Monk Sha's next words In a word, "Miss Chai, why is your face so red?"

"...No, nothing."

However, she still heard it after all. Chai Xi lowered her head and patted her cheeks with both hands.She felt that her ability to restrain her emotions became more and more superb, and the temperature dropped after a while.She ran forward, trying to catch up with Monkey King.

After such and such an agreement, the king of Baoxiang Kingdom treated them with a vegetarian banquet. Chaixi didn't have much appetite, but just moved his chopsticks a little.After the meal, the group went on the road as before. Sun Wukong was still at the front to explore the way, but this time Chaixi only walked beside him. Now he accidentally fell behind, just because he was thinking about things. She was so engrossed that she didn't even hear Monkey King calling her.

"Great Sage, what do you want me to do?" As soon as he caught up with Sun Wukong, Chai Xi hurriedly asked, and she took it for granted that the other party suddenly thought of something to ask and was so eager.

"No," Sun Wukong denied, "it's just that Lao Sun wants to go with you."

Chai Xi: "..."

She felt that her ears were getting hot, and after forcing her head away calmly, the corners of her lips curled up uncontrollably.

Accidents always happen at unexpected moments.

There was a sharp sound of something piercing the air next to his ear, and then Chai Xi only heard a long whistling from the white dragon horse.She was startled, turned her head quickly, and saw an arrow firmly nailed to the roadside stone, the feathers on the tail of the arrow were still trembling slightly, as if to emphasize how much force the archer had used.

The voice and direction just now...was obviously aimed at Tang Sanzang.

"Old Sun is walking around here a few meters away." After waiting for a few minutes and finding that the enemy did not continue to attack, Sun Wukong frowned and directed at Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha, "You two protect yourself. Master and the Five Elements."

But he didn't leave just like that, but said two more words in Chaixi's ear, the voice was so soft that no third person could hear it.

"Self-protection."

Surrounded by forests, Sun Wukong first searched around—especially the place where the archer was most likely to be hidden, but after no results, he moved away from them.

They could have seen Sun Wukong, but he disappeared at some point.

1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes...

Half an hour, a quarter of an hour...

They waited here for nearly half an hour, but they didn't see Monkey King appear again.

Zhu Bajie had already made a small murmur on the sidelines, and at this moment he even opened his mouth and said: "Could it be that this Bi Mawen—"

"To shut up."

Chai Xi leaned against the tree and interrupted him directly.She straightened up and pulled out the seven-star whip from her waist: "I'm afraid I've encountered some trouble. I'll go find him first, and I'll be back in a while."

She was quite uncertain about this, let alone Zhu Bajie, Chaixi was also a little nervous at the moment.But unlike the other party, she trusted Sun Wukong wholeheartedly, so naturally she didn't think he would do anything to run away.

The Great Sage is really in trouble.

And Chaixi also knew clearly that if Monkey King couldn't solve it, then she couldn't even mention it.

But even so, she had to do something.

It was a bad choice to act alone at this time, but Chaixi had no other choice.

She was worried about Dasheng.

—so at least it was up to her to be sure.

She walked hurriedly up and down the woods, and her steps undoubtedly revealed her impatience.As she was walking, Chai Xi suddenly felt startled. She was practically nailed there and couldn't move, she couldn't even turn around.

Someone is standing behind her.

"Five Elements Mountain."

The person called out softly, her unusually familiar voice was full of endless compassion.
