Chapter Seventy-Three: The Dark-Skinned Boy

Sanzang laughed when he heard this, stepped forward slowly, pointed to an object on the door frame and said: "Don't believe you if you are stupid, people have lived like this for hundreds of years, and there is no one in the neighborhood who visits the patient, if you can't even solve this little problem, it will be in vain." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Look up, what is the thing on it?"

Bajie raised his head and followed the direction of Sanzang's fingers, only to find that there was a bell hanging steadily on the axis of the curtain, the old pig scratched his head, thought for a moment, and woke up like a dream: "Ah, the people in this place are smart, and they also use this bell to transmit information. ”

Hearing this, Sha Wujing stared at the bell tightly, puzzled, and said inexplicably: "Ya, what does this bell have to do with transmitting information, could it be that if you pull the rope, the people inside can hear it, this is also amazing, right?"

Angry at Lao Sha's consistent sluggishness, Wen Tianshu was very unhappy, and said with an expression of hatred that iron is not steel: "Wujing, just wake up, just a bell can't do anything, the inside of the door must use the axis all the way to the inner hall, and there is a bell hanging on it, through the action of force, as soon as you pull the bell here, the bell inside will ring, so the people in the house can hear it." ”

Wujing suddenly realized when he heard this, full of joy, clapped his hands and said: "Ah, so that's the case, this is fun, no wonder it is said that the thinking of the people in this place is miles ahead, in other places I have never seen such a way to call the door, even so, but I want to give it a try to see if the people inside can come out after pulling this bell?"

After Lao Sha finished speaking, he didn't say hello, and directly reached out to pull the rope with the bell, which was so powerful that everyone couldn't stop it, and they all held their breath, worried that the rope would not be broken by this brute.

Fortunately, the rope seems to be exceptionally strong, and it has not been broken when it is pulled so violently, but the bell seems to be a dumb one, even if it is pulled like this, but it does not ring, but since it has been pulled this time, the movement inside seems to have decreased in an instant, and it has become silent, and the needle drop can be heard.

Wujing didn't notice this, only saw that he didn't ring the bell, and felt very dissatisfied, so he scratched his head and stepped forward to pull the second time, so frightened that Wukong and Bajie stepped forward together, stuck his neck and pulled his arm to hold him down, and pulled him back to the team.

Wujing was very angry, he was a little out of breath when Wukong stuck his neck, stretched out his tongue, and protested with a hum: "What are the two senior brothers doing, let go quickly, you're going to kill me, girl, it's a crime to pull a bell, it's worth your kind of big fight, righteous and righteous killing?"

Wukong suddenly let go of his hand, let go of his neck, and snorted coldly: "There are some big fights, but I never thought of killing relatives with righteousness, Wujing, you can use this word inappropriately, it is not illegal to pull a bell, but you are a fool who has not pulled it once, you have to pull it a second time, and you have to tear this rope off?"

Wujing shook his head ignorantly, and said depressedly: "I don't want to see if the bell is not ringing, I wonder if it is broken, and I want to try it again." ”

Bajie couldn't laugh when he heard it, and sighed: "Ya, it doesn't matter if the bell rings outside, the key is that the bell inside rings, and the people in the inner hall are alarmed to open the curtain." ”

Tianshu nodded and added: "Yes, I think most of the bells in front of this door are dumb, but how can the bells outside rattle and alarm the visitors, which is too rude." ”

Sha Wujing waved his hand and asked a very important question: "But there doesn't seem to be any movement inside, didn't you hear it or what?"

Bajie listened for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes, it seems to be quiet, why don't you pull it again and try it, so many people are blocked by the curtain, it's embarrassing to think about it, but it's not the style of our Sanzang Army." ”

Wukong stretched out his hand to stop the two of them, and said solemnly: "No, no, no, they must have heard it, otherwise they wouldn't have suddenly become quiet from the noisy atmosphere, but I think everyone has already arrived, and our sudden rattle must have frightened them, and they are quiet at the moment, it seems that they are discussing whether they should send someone out to find out." ”

Bajie listened disdainfully, and said disdainfully: "This monkey thinks too much, listens to the noise of Fang Cai, and there are quite a few people who want to come to the banquet, but how can he be afraid of a few of us, and the people on this side are too timid and afraid, right?"

As soon as the words came out, Ao Bai, who was incarnated as a white horse, couldn't help but shake his head, and retorted: "Second Senior Brother, I think it's because you've thought about it, it's not that the people on this side are timid, but because the situation is forced to become so cautious, who doesn't know that there are monsters raging on the burning plain nearby, and they take advantage of the full moon night to come out to arrest people, but they also have to be more vigilant and cautious, and although there are many of them, they don't know what the situation is outside, how can they dare to come out boldly and recklessly to find out?"

Bajie was speechless, and was about to nod yes, when suddenly Wukong pressed his hand, made a quiet gesture, and said in a low voice: "Silence, someone is coming." ”

Bajie also listened sideways for a while, and muttered in a low voice: "Nonsense, your monkey ears are clever, why can't I hear it at all?"

Seeing that he dared to question his ear power, Sun Wukong was quite annoyed, lowered his voice and scolded: "This stupid person, he is tiptoeing and cautiously moving forward, like you have a big nerve, but how can you hear it?"

As a few people were talking, the curtain of the door was torn open with a bang, and a person came out of it trembling and hesitating, and everyone looked at it intently, and couldn't help but be stunned: I saw that this person was wearing filial piety clothes, wearing a white hat, a silk belt around his waist, white shoes, and a fist-sized multi-petaled white flower on his chest, as if he had just returned from the cemetery from a funeral.

And although he looks handsome, his complexion is dark, and with this white clothes, he is strange and looks indescribably weird.

Everyone was unprepared for such a strange person suddenly appeared, and they couldn't help but be taken aback, and their hearts were horrified, Sun Wukong reacted very quickly, and immediately pulled out the Ruyi golden hoop stick from his ear, shook it in front of him, and shouted: "Ah, what kind of demon are you, wearing this white clothes in broad daylight to come out to be scary, and don't open the yellow calendar to see, who are you meeting this time?"

When the strange man saw the monkey's Lei Gong face, he couldn't help but put it even harder, trembling for a long time, and then he spoke: "You monkey-faced monster, you come to my door to pull the bell for no reason, and you still say that I am a monster and want to fight, is there any reason for this?"

"If you want to arrest someone, just arrest me, and show mercy to my family. ”

When the monkey heard him say pitiful, he couldn't help but have some doubts, scratched his head, and wondered: "Good girl, so you are not a monster, but my grandson has also walked sixty or seventy percent of the 108,000 miles away, and I have seen a lot of people, but there has never been one as black as you, but it is really rare." ”

The strange man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and secretly said to himself: "Listening to the words of the master, although you look vulgar, you are not a monster. Grandpa, you are saying this but you are lacking in knowledge, since seven or eight hundred years ago, the people on our side are also like the old man behind (referring to Sanzang), the face is yellow and white, not as dark as this, only because of a night in a certain year, a huge ball of fire fell from the sky, smashed into the ground, ignited hundreds of miles of land in front of it, and formed the current 800-mile flame mountain that harms all people. ”

"Because of the heat of the flaming mountain, the heat is unbearable, all the year round, we and other people are subjected to the fire and sun, the heat suffers, and the complexion gradually turns from yellow to black, and it is passed down from generation to generation, one generation is as black as the generation, and over time, it has become so black. I don't feel anything when I get used to seeing each other on weekdays, but when I see you gentlemen, with yellow complexion and dignified appearance, I can't help but feel a little ashamed of myself from the bottom of my heart. ”

Hearing him say sadly, Tang Sanzang couldn't help but feel pity, and said with desolation: "Alas, you monkey still thinks they are ugly, but in the final analysis, it was all the trouble you broke into back then, and it affected them all at once. ”

When the strange man heard this, he said unknowingly: "You elder is nonsense, I have been blackened by this flaming volcano, but what does this old man have to do, and he can't set the fire on this mountain?"

The monkey was afraid that the master would bury himself with oil and vinegar, so he couldn't help but take a step forward and confessed to himself: "Although you are not all right, you are also reliable to the point of not leaving ten, although this fire was not put by my grandson, it is really related to this great sage." ”

"Just because when the great sage rebelled against the Heavenly Palace, he defeated 100,000 heavenly soldiers and became famous in the Three Realms, but he was captured by Erlang Zhenjun in the battle, the knife chopped and chopped, the fire burned and thundered, and I couldn't hurt half a hair of my grandson, the Jade Emperor couldn't, according to the words of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, I was put into the Bagua Dan furnace and burned for 7749 days, Lao Jun thought that he had refined the golden pill, and he had achieved great success, so he fanned out the furnace fire, opened the top cover, and unexpectedly jumped out of the furnace by my old grandson, and kicked over the Dan furnace, although the Dan furnace was strong, after all, it was still broken by me A gap, among which there was a red-hot furnace brick that cut through the sky, fell into the dust, and there was your so-called 800 miles of flame mountainTherefore, the master said that I had caused you a burden, but I was not bad. ”

The man was dumbfounded when he heard it, and said in shock: "You old man is talking nonsense again, it was all seven or eight hundred years ago, how can you still say that it is your story, look at your small appearance, and your age is only forty years, if you say such a big thing, I am afraid that no one who hears it will be willing to believe you." ”
