Chapter Seventy-Eight: Twenty Days Without Food?

This, this......

In an instant, countless questions popped up in the river demon's mind.

Not at all expected!

There will be this scene again!

Why is there another group of bald heads!

There is also a mole on his head......

Could it be said.

These people are also monks?

The five who left just now may not have come out of the West Heaven to learn from the scriptures.

These are the ones!

...... Come to think of it.

The river demon got excited.

This shows that I still have a chance.

So immediately, I ran over.

came to the gang.

"I am a monk from the east, and I was ordered by the Tang Emperor to go to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. ”

A group of people spoke in unison again

The river demon was startled.

Immediately knelt down again.

"Take me away, take me away. ”

"I'm going to be a sleeping ...... for you, Emperor Yu No, on the orders of Guanyin, I am waiting here for the person who takes the scriptures...... In my previous life, I was a general of the shutters......"

The river demon explained.

However, the monks didn't listen at all, and walked straight forward.

The river demon was helpless, so he continued to run to the front and continued to kneel.

But.

Even if they are kneeling, these people will go around.

Keep going.

Until, the entire 'scripture learning team' left the quicksand river.

The river demon froze in place again.

I never expected that I would just leave.

Same as before.

During this period, the river demon also became angry several times.

I want to use the crescent shovel to kill it directly.

But what if you kill the wrong one!

I've made this mistake nine times in a row before!

You can't be guilty!

So!

Can't be killed.

Until these dozen people, after leaving the quicksand river.

The river demon is back to the quicksand river again.

Bitterly guarded.

See ...... again

Another group of people is coming.

It's all bald, too.

After approaching.

Again, this passage is unchanged:

"I am a monk from the east, and I was ordered by the Tang Emperor to go to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. ”

...... Firmament!

The River Demon has collapsed!

What's going on!

......

Xuanzang took Bajie, Sun Monkey, and the county order standing aside, standing on the high city gate tower.

Saw this scene.

laughed.

"Oh, Master Xuanzang is really unfathomable!

"This spell is amazing. ”

"I admire the county!

The old county magistrate gave a thumbs up and praised repeatedly.

Xuanzang smiled.

Zhu Bajie on the side was full of doubts.

Obviously, I don't understand it at this moment, why don't you say this sentence and be eaten?

There's nothing magical about that!

These passers-by with shaved heads are just ordinary people, and there is nothing strange about it.

Why is that?

"Master, what the hell are you ......?"

"Don't ask. ”

"Just look at it. ”

"Good. ”

Xuanzang nodded.

At the beckoning of the prefectural order.

I returned to the county office.

Arranged an exclusive room.

Wine and meat were all available, and they were entertained.

...... In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

In three days.

This river of quicksand is going to collapse.

Everyone who passed by was bald and looked like they had moles on their heads!

When I came to them, it was all the same sentence.

said that he was a monk from the east and went to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures.

Ask further.

It's still the same sentence.

Could it be that all these people are seeking scriptures and worshipping Buddha in the west?

Do you need such a large team?

But it's also.

In the secret decree given to him by the Jade Emperor, there was no mention of how huge the team of the Western Heaven to learn scriptures was.

But!

None of them bothered with their own!

Three days.

I always wanted to hold the crescent spatula and eat them.

But when I think about it, if I eat it wrong.

It's a big deal.

So I thought, if I can meet someone who is not a monk, I will eat it directly to satisfy my hunger.

But.

Three days passed.

The people who came over all said that they were monks!

All of them!

If you want to find someone to eat, you can't do it!

So, three days later.

The river demon sat limply on the sand.

Looking in the direction of the city gate ahead, he raised his head again and looked at the sky.

I thought to myself:

'Jade Emperor, why haven't you come to order yet!'

...... At this time.

In the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

Clairvoyant rushed in and told him what had just happened.

The Jade Emperor frowned.

I was puzzled.

This Xuanzang, I heard that there is a man-eating river demon in the quicksand river, so he came up with a way to subdue the demon, which is understandable.

But.

What is the method used?

Just read the words.

These passers-by are just ordinary people, and they definitely don't have any spiritual power at all.

So.

It was the general who heard this sentence and didn't dare to do it.

Think about it.

Also!

This guy has eaten too many people before!

The people who learned the scriptures for nine consecutive generations were all eaten.

If you eat the 10th life, you will definitely regret it.

He can't complete the task he gave him.

So.

He didn't dare to eat these people who claimed to be people who learned scriptures.

Right!

But.

What will happen if it drags on like this?

This Xuanzang, he can't keep hiding in this county office, don't come out, right?

"Pass the secret decree to the general of the curtain and tell him that this Xuanzang has not passed by yet. ”

"Just wait, wait, don't leave. ”

The Jade Emperor ordered.

Too platinum star to order.

Turned around and went out.

A moment later.

At night, the river demon, who was dozing off by the quicksand, received this secret letter.

After reading it.

Immediately invigorated.

Continue to die here and wait.

I didn't even dare to go to sleep.

I'm afraid that if I fall asleep, this person who learns the scriptures happens to pass by and happens to miss it, so what can I do?

Thereupon.

Lift up the spirit.

Dead begging waited in vain.

...... In the blink of an eye.

Another half a month has passed.

Half a month!

The Jade Emperor sits high on the throne.

Waiting for the clairvoyant to come to the wind.

But.

But there has been no news of Xuanzang going out.

On the contrary, day and night, he played in the county office.

Playthings are demoralized.

Eat meat and drink wine, and play games with the maids arranged for him by the county order.

also asked the county order to build a sedan chair for them, saying that it would be used on the road in the future.

Of course, the prefectural order will not refuse.

After all, as long as you can subdue the river demon, let alone one sedan chair, ten will do.

Immediately ordered someone to build it.

And Zhu Bajie is even more presumptuous.

There is no need to learn from the west.

Rest here!

That eating, drinking, and merrymaking, it never stops!

Half a month has passed.

Add in the previous three days, and it's already twenty days.

I haven't even been out yet.

"Report ......"

Suddenly, clairvoyance ran in.

I reported it.

"Outside this quicksand river, outside the quicksand river......"

Panting, he knelt in front of the Jade Emperor and said hastily.

"What?"

The Jade Emperor was slightly furious.

"River Demon, fainted!"

"What!"

"This ......"

"How could you faint!"

"It's Xuanzang who cast a spell......

"However, Xuanzang and his disciples have never gone out!"

In the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, all the immortals were surprised.

I can't imagine why this river demon fainted.

"Why did you faint? Did you observe it?" asked the Jade Emperor.

"It's because ......"

Shunfeng lowered his eyebrows, as if he was embarrassed to say this answer.

"Just a small observation, it seems to be a ...... that has been starved alive"
