Chapter 1860 Thieves on the Mountain Road
Sun Wukong and Xuanzang were traveling westward.
On this journey to the west, Xuanzang always chatted with Sun Wukong and asked many things. He was very curious about many things, but Sun Wukong didn't want to say much.
Now that he has come out of the Five Elements Mountain, he just wants to fly around the sky and enjoy the feeling of freedom.
He felt that Xuanzang was very nagging, and sometimes he really wanted to seal Xuanzang's mouth.
Of course, he did do this, but he couldn't keep doing this.
He found that as soon as he unbuttoned the seal, Xuanzang would keep talking. Sometimes when he was sleeping, Xuanzang kept talking.
This made Sun Wukong very helpless and a headache.
"Wukong, what do you think of the suggestion that Master said to you before?" Xuanzang rode on the white horse and looked at Sun Wukong flying in the air.
"What proposal?" Sun Wukong looked over.
"It's what I said before. I want you to teach me magic. Anyway, the journey to the West is still long and it takes a long time. Why don't you teach me some magic? Maybe when I arrive at Lingshan, I will become a master. And you teach me magic. If you meet demons on this journey, I can deal with it and help you share some pressure." Xuanzang said to Sun Wukong with a smile.
"You can't help but think you can become a master from here to the West? This practice cannot be achieved easily. If this is true, then all the creatures in the three realms will practice.
Also, when you encounter demons on the way west, you don’t need to share the pressure on this great saint. Where were you when the Great saint was so popular in the Three Realms? So you don’t have to worry about the demons. This great saint is enough for me!"
Sun Wukong was still very confident. Even though the demons were very strong, he was not afraid. Even if his strength was only in the realm of Xuanxian, he was not afraid.
Because he had that aura in his heart, whoever dared to be the enemy of most of the demons in the three quarters would dare not compete head-on even if they were stronger than him.
After seeing him, I was so scared that I was trembling and dared not speak.
Before walking to a mountain, Sun Wukong shouted into the mountain, saying that the Monkey King Sun Wukong passed by here, and the demons in the mountain would escape one after another, and he would not dare to appear at all.
"Wukong, I know you have a strong ability, but you should teach me a little too. I don't want to be a useless monk. I can only recite scriptures all day long. I also want to practice like you.
No matter what, I was appointed by Guanyin Bodhisattva and wanted me to be your master. Even if you don’t admit it, many people in the three realms know that if you meet some demons in the future, other people, or your friends, if you see your master so incompetent and cowardly, you will laugh at me, but I am nothing. I, a monk, are all empty.
But what do people want to laugh at you? You are the dignified Monkey King and the Three Pure Tathagata among the Three Realms. If they take this opportunity to laugh at your master, tell me, won’t this lose your Monkey King’s face?" Xuanzang said loudly as he looked at Sun Wukong in the air.
After hearing this, Sun Wukong frowned slightly. Although he was very annoyed by Xuanzang, what he said made some sense.
He has not admitted that Xuanzang is his master now, but many people in the Three Realms know that Xuanzang is his master, and he has also saved himself in the Five Elements Mountain.
If Xuanzang was so incompetent and had no power to tie a chicken, it would not only bring shame to Xuanzang's face, but also to his face.
Sun Wukong was a little hesitant about this matter, and it seemed that he needed to think more about it.
Just as Sun Wukong was about to respond to Xuanzang, he heard a sound.
The two of them looked over and saw several thieves holding weapons in their hands on the mountain road ahead, looking at them coldly.
Sun Wukong looked at the group of people indifferently and ignored them. These people were really looking for death and dared to come to them.
After Xuanzang saw these thieves, a light flashed in his eyes, as if he was a little excited.
"Haha, donors, good noon. Are you hunting after you entered the mountains with so many weapons?" Xuanzang asked with a smile as if he didn't understand.
"Hehe! What you, the monk, said is interesting, and we are here to hunt, but we are not ordinary beasts, but you!" A thief pointed at Xuanzang and smiled.
"This friend is joking. If you hunt, it is illegal. The government will arrest you. In this Tang Dynasty... in this territory, killing people is also illegal." Xuanzang said, and he actually forgot that he had already left the Tang Dynasty.
Several thieves were laughing, "In this deep mountain, there is no one in the desert, what can we do if we kill you? If you kill you, no one else will know,
Even if it is the government, you will find your body later, so what? They don’t know who killed us. If they want to capture us, we are not afraid of hiding into the deep mountains, and even if he can’t find us, thousands of troops will not find us.”
These thieves are right. They killed people in this deep mountain, and no one knows who did it. The government sent countless people to search the mountain, probably not to be able to search, because the terrain in this mountain is complex and the jungle is dense. When people drill into it, it is like a fish entering the sea. How can they be found?
Xuanzang was still smiling, "But you can't break the law just because of this kind of friends, right? Think about your family and your friends, it's a bit inappropriate to wander around the world because of these things.
Besides, you guys must just want some money, right? Is it worth killing someone for some money and committing a death sentence."
"Since you know we want money, why don't you take out all the money you have on you as soon as possible!" the thief continued to shout.
"This is nature, this is nature. I still have more than ten taels of silver here. I can take it to eat wine for a few friends." Xuanzang jumped off the white horse with a smile and took out some silver from his arms.
"Are you a monk sending beggars? We are thieves in the mountains at least. Every time we go out to rob, we are at least a few hundred taels. Are you mocking us with a dozen taels of silver?" The thieves were very angry. They felt that they were despised by a monk. Are they so badly disgraced?
"But I only have this silver left on me, and there is nothing extra." Xuanzang said.
