Chapter 870: Encountering the Demon at Thorns Ridge
Although Zhu Bajie was clearing the way, the road ahead was still difficult. After walking for half a month, he only went about 200 miles.
Zhu Bajie was so tired that he sat on a stone beside him and said panting: "Master, I, the old pig, can't hold on anymore. Senior brother, if you can't do it, just fly over this forest with your master on your back."
Before Sun Wukong could speak, Tang Seng said, "No, you must go through the West step by step to express your sincerity and seek the true scriptures."
Zhu Bajie muttered a few words, but no one knew what he was saying.
Sun Houzi said: "Master, our dry food is gone, so why not take a break here. I will go find some dry food, fruits and vegetables to satisfy my hunger."
"Yes, yes, yes, senior brother, go quickly. I have worked hard for a while, and now I am hungry. Look, I have lost weight." Zhu Bajie said quickly.
"You have lost weight, don't think about it in this life." Sun Wukong said with a thrust, then flew away with a cloud.
Sha Seng put down the box, helped Tang Seng sit down, and leaned himself under the tree stump next to him to rest. Zhu Bajie became more casual and lay directly on the grass, humming comfortably.
Suddenly a strong wind blew.
The trees were scraped and countless leaves fell.
Sha Seng said, "Second Brother, is it going to rain?"
"The wind is said to be wind and rain in the mountains. Who knows? No hurry. When it rains, it will not be wet under the big trees anyway." Zhu Bajie said indifferently.
suddenly,
A strong wind blew, causing Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng to squint their eyes. When they opened their eyes, they found that Tang Seng was gone.
"Oh, second senior brother, the master is gone. It must have been the demon wind just now. The master was captured by the monster." Sha Seng said anxiously.
Zhu Bajie was also anxious: "What should I do? Contact the senior brother to find the monster immediately."
Let’s talk about Tang Monk being caught in a valley in a daze. The flowers and plants in the valley are full of fragrance, as if someone is taking care of it. The scenery is very beautiful, not a wilderness. When he was surprised, a pretty maid appeared next to him, bowed to Tang Monk and said, “Elder Tang, several masters are invited.”
Tang Seng knew that this must be a place for monsters, but he didn't dare to move around, swallowed and said, "Okay, take me there."
The maid led the way forward, crossed a not-so-long road, and came to a place that looked like a manor. The bamboo forests were surrounded by screens, and various flowers and plants were planted around them. There were small bridges and flowing water in the middle, and several wooden pavilions in front, which were very different.
When I came to a pavilion, there were several old men in the pavilion.
Several old men bowed to Tang Monk, and the Eighteenth Duke said with a smile: "Elder Tang, don't panic. We are all practitioners of Taoism. We invite Elder Tang over here today, without any intention of harming each other. We just know that Elder Tang is a monk from the Tang Dynasty and goes to the West to obtain scriptures. We specially invite you to communicate."
Although Tang Monk didn't believe it, he was now imprisoned and could only give in vain. "I thanked several invitations, but the monks of the Tang Dynasty did not dare to be the ones. It is fortunate to be able to communicate with several monks."
Everyone divided the guests and the host and the host sat down. The Eighteen Duke introduced to Tang Monk, Gu Zhigong, Ling Kongzi, Fuyunsou, the naked ghost, etc.
As for Xingxian, she didn't come out at all. In the original work, she wanted to sleep with Tang Seng. Now she is Qin Guan's woman, so how could she do that?
Two pretty maids, Dangui and wintersweet were served with tea. Everyone started talking about poetry and lyrics. During this period, they communicated a lot. Seeing a few monsters talking well, Tang Seng gradually felt much more at ease.
When Sun Wukong looked for wild fruit in the mountains, he saw Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng waiting for him with an ugly look on his face: "Senior Brother, the master has been captured by the monster."
There was not much change on Sun Wukong's face and he got used to it.
Isn't this a routine all the way?
If you are caught, then find a way to save it.
Most monsters have territory, and they probably ran within a radius of hundreds of miles. Sun Wukong left the wild fruit and said to Sha Seng: "Junior Brother Sha is guarding the horses and saluting, Bajie, follow me to find the master." After that, the two flew away.
The moon is in the sky.
Because of the good chat, Tang Seng slowly forgot his fear and started chatting with several old men, as if he had become a friend.
Suddenly, a sharp scream came from a distance.
"Master, my old grandson is here to save you."
Tang Seng was shocked and then remembered that he was still trapped in the monster group. His friend's feelings just now were immediately discarded and shouted loudly: "Wukong, I am here."
"ah!"
Sun Wukong screamed and rushed over from a distance. When he saw a group of old men, his eyes flashed with golden light and he could see that it was a group of guys with not very high cultivation. Sun Wukong held a stick in one hand and pointed at the old men with the other hand and cursed: "A few monsters from unknown places, they dared to attack my master. Today, your grandfather Sun asked you to know what the word "death" is."
After saying that, he beat the stick.
When the Eighteenth Duke saw Sun Wukong hit, he swung his sleeves and immediately released countless smoke. When Sun Wukong's stick fell, the Eighteenth Duke disappeared.
"Wukong, save me!"
Tang Monk beside him screamed again.
Sun Wukong turned his head to look, but saw an old man grabbing Tang Sanzang's clothes and leaving. Sun Wukong was shocked and was about to rush over, but the next second, the old man grabbed Tang Monk and drilled into the ground and disappeared directly.
Earth escape technique.
Looking around, there is no shadow of a monster.
Sun Wukong was so angry. Unexpectedly, he took a look at it today and asked the monsters to escape in front of him. He told him where to put his face in the Monkey King.
"Take a lot of earth!"
Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations also had earth-moving techniques. Sun Wukong pierced his head, but after searching around for a long time, he could not see the shadow of Tang Seng and those monsters. He thought he had already run away, so Sun Wukong had to come out.
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother, have the master saved me?" At this moment, Zhu Bajie ran over from a distance.
Sun Wuqi said annoyedly: "The master was taken away by those monsters again. It's really angering for me, Lao Sun."
"Is those monsters so powerful when you snatch the master away in front of you?" Zhu Bajie asked.
Sun Wukong said: "But it's not very powerful, but they are all vegetation. They are born to escape from the ground. I was careless and asked them to capture the master again."
"Hmph, monks can't run away from the temple. Since they are monsters here, their foundation is probably around here. When I find them out, I will definitely break their roots and bodies, and I will never let them go."
Sun Wukong was slapping the spell, and soon an old man came out of the ground. It was the land in this place. Sun Wukong stepped forward and grabbed the land arm and asked, "Land, where does this monster come from."
The old man said tremblingly: "Great Sage, there is indeed a group of monsters in this place. The six monsters that are headed by pine, cypress, cypress, green bamboo, maple, and apricot trees. The remaining dozens of little monsters are also made of grass and trees."
