The four masters and apprentices left the Xiaoleiyin Temple and happily went on the road.

The journey of the month is the time when the flowers bloom in the depths of spring.

"Several gardens are green, and it's dusk after a storm! Haha! It's almost time to get off work again. ”

Zhu Bajie, who was walking on the road, looked at the scene in the distance, and his face was very happy.

Zhu Bajie is a very cheerful person, and he didn't know where he threw the seed bag for a long time.

Zhu Bajie, who was walking, shrank his eyes and shouted loudly: "Master, there is someone in front." ”

As he spoke, he looked into the distance with excitement.

The two are only a mile or two apart, so you can definitely catch up before you get off work, just in time to make up for dinner.

For the food-loving Zhu Bajie, there is nothing better than this.

Tang Seng, who was riding on a horse, naturally saw it, but he didn't care.

As I got closer to Lingshan, I encountered a lot more villages.

Zhu Bajie, who was running in front, repeatedly urged Tang monks and apprentices to hurry up.

Tang Seng on the horse was still unhurried.

As we got closer, a small Zhuangzi appeared in sight.

Sweeping far away, there were hundreds of households.

Tang Seng, who didn't care, suddenly looked stunned, and looked ahead with a surprised face.

"Ding! Enter the 'Red Phosphorus Python' to learn from the scriptures, and ask to stay for at least three days. ’

"Accident! Accident! I didn't expect it to be difficult in a few months. ”

Tang Seng on the horse was very happy in his heart.

After a year without calamity, the mood that comes one after another is not ordinary.

"Wukong! Let's go faster!"

said a word to Sun Wukong, and Tang Seng gently clamped the white dragon horse under him.

The white dragon horse neighed and galloped out.

Glancing at Tang Seng with a little doubt, Sun Wukong and the two hurriedly followed.

A few people approached, and all of them had surprise in their eyes.

Before evening, the sky was still bright, and the whole Zhuangzi was quiet, and all the doors and windows of the houses were tightly covered.

"Master, how strange is this village?"

Zhu Bajie, who was walking in front, looked at the closed doors with surprise in his eyes.

The whole Zhuangzi is very neat, and there is still green smoke in the distance, which is obviously inhabited.

Tang Seng, who turned over and dismounted, glanced around, and said softly: "Wukong, go up and ask what's wrong with this village?"

"Okay!"

Sun Wukong answered, and ran towards the nearest house.

The firewood was closed, and Sun Wukong knocked on the door and shouted, "Open the door!"

"Who?"

Sun Wukong shouted a few words, and a low response came from the door.

Immediately Sun Wukong, I saw the chaimen slowly open a gap, and one eye looked over.

"Old donor, we are the people who come and go to the west to learn scriptures, suitable for your land, and we will make a special mansion for a night and stay overnight, and it will be convenient and convenient. ”

Tang Seng walked up, clasped his hands and said.

Hearing this, the old man slowly opened the firewood door, only to see the old man dragging a quinoa cane in his hand, stepping on his shoes, wearing a black scarf on his head, and wearing plain clothes.

Looking Tang Seng up and down, the old man's eyes were full of strange colors.

"Monk, you want to go west, but you can't go. This is the small west sky, if you go to the big west day, the road is very long. And it's hard to go to the road, and it's hard to go to this place alone. ”

With that, the old man sighed deeply.

Zhu Bajie, who followed behind, stepped forward and asked strangely, "Why are you sad?"

The scene in this village, coupled with the expression of the old man in front of him, Zhu Bajie vaguely felt that they might have encountered a goblin again.

There are goblins, and if they exert their strength, they will naturally have to eat again.

Originally, I just wanted to have a fast meal in the evening, but now it seems that I can eat a full meal.

Sweeping Zhu Bajie's appearance, the old man's face shrank slightly, but he still responded softly: "I go more than 30 miles west of Zhuang Village, and there is a rare persimmon with the same mountain name. ”

"What are the Seven Uniques?"

Sun Wukong, who was standing on the side, also asked curiously.

"This mountain trail is eight hundred miles long, and the mountains are full of persimmons. The ancient cloud persimmon tree has seven uniques: one longevity, two more yin, three no bird's nest, four no insects, five frost leaves to play, six Jiashi, seven branches and leaves are hypertrophied, so it is called seven unique mountains. It's just that no one has walked around in the deep mountains for eternity, and the ripe persimmons fall on the road every year, filling up the entire stone alley, and over time, it has already turned into a road of filth, and the smell is stinking. ”

The old man, who glanced carefully outside the door a few times, said eloquently.

Now it's late spring, and the southeast wind is blowing, so I haven't heard of it yet.

If the northwest wind blows, the whole village will have that stench, and the village will be miserable, but there is nothing to do.

"Cut! What am I here, it's just a stinky mud road, and I can just open another road with my ability. ”

I thought there was a goblin fight, but I didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter.

Zhu Bajie pursed his lips, feeling depressed for a while.

"You long-nosed and big-eared monk, you look strong, but there are rocks on both sides of the alley, stretching for 800 miles, how long will it take to open a road?"

With that, the old man shook his head again and again.

Seeing that the old man looked down on him, Zhu Bajie was suddenly unhappy.

How to say it, he is also a dignified marshal of Tianpeng, and now he actually makes a mortal look down.

"Old official, don't underestimate my old pig, how can you put it in our eyes. ”

Seeing Zhu Bajie's proud look, the old man asked urgently: "What kind of family are you, who is your surname, and what means do you have?"

"My old pig used to be the Marshal of Tianpeng, my senior brother was the Monkey King who made trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago, and my senior brother Sha was a close attendant of the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court. ”

Zhu Bajie straightened his chest and looked angry.

When the old man heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly respectfully invited Tang Seng and his apprentices in.

The four people led their horses and carried their burdens into the house together, and saw the thorns and thorns laying on both sides, and the second floor door was a wall of brick and stone, and it was covered with thorns, and there were three tiled houses inside.

Tang Seng, who saw all this, didn't say much, and followed the old man into the inner hall.

"It's getting late, and the elders are definitely not eating, so I'm going to prepare a meal for the elders. ”

The old man who led Tang Seng and his apprentices in, said with enthusiasm on his face.

Tang Seng nodded and said respectfully: "Thank you to the old donor." ”

"Don't worry!

The old man waved his hand again and again, and after a while, he brought a lot of gluten, tofu, taro seedlings, radish white, fragrant rice and rice, and vinegar roasted sunflower soup.

After a full meal, Zhu Bajie looked at Sun Wukong with a puzzled face: "Senior brother, this old man refused to let us in at the beginning, but now he is fasting like this, which is strange." ”

"You idiot, you see that every house here is closed in broad daylight, and the courtyard is full of thorns, there must be something wrong with the village. ”

Sun Wukong, who was squatting on the bench, glanced at Zhu Bajie and said lightly.

More importantly, he faintly felt a faint demonic aura around the village.

"Ahh

Zhu Bajie had a guess before, but he was only diverted by the topic of the old man's Seven Peerless Mountains.

After that, his face was full of joy for a while.

On the way to learn the scriptures, no matter the country or village he encounters, as long as there is a goblin, there is a time when he eats and drinks.

Right now, there are goblins in this village, which is exactly what he wants.

Seeing Zhu Bajie's excited appearance, Sun Wukong rolled his eyes, and already knew what he was thinking.

Fighting goblins is such a thing, so naturally the other party has to take the initiative to mention it.

Zhu Bajie thought so, and Tang Seng thought the same way.

After a short time, it was getting dusk, and the old man ordered someone to light an oil lamp.

"Hey!"

The old man with the lamp in his hand sighed heavily in the room.

"Why is my husband sighing?"

Zhu Bajie's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly answered.

Glancing at Zhu Bajie and a few people, the old man said to Tang Seng: "I just heard that Ling's disciple is very capable, but I have a monster here, as long as the elder can get rid of it, I will be grateful." ”

Although I saw that Tang Seng looked white and pure, and looked weak, since he was the master of Zhu Bajie and several people, his strength was definitely not simple.

"Amitabha! It was originally the duty of my Buddhist disciples to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but now that I meet them, I will not stand idly by. ”

Tang Seng, who folded his hands, responded with a serious face.

"Elder righteousness!"

The old man didn't expect Tang Seng to agree so happily, and his face was suddenly full of joy.

"Old donor, I see that the terrain in this village is flat, and there are many families living in it, and it is not a remote place, what goblins are entrenched here?"

came forward to Sun Wukong, puzzled.

The old man looked emotional, and said softly: "I really don't hide it, I've been here for a long time." It was only three years ago that a gust of wind suddenly rose, and the villagers in Zhuangzhong panicked, saying that the sky had changed. Who knew that the wind was passing by, and a goblin ate the cattle and horses that people had grazing, and the pigs and sheep ate them, and saw the chickens and geese swallowing them, and they were swallowed alive by men and women. Since then, he has often come to the village to cause trouble. Elder, if you have the means, take it, and sweep away this land, we will resolutely thank you and dare not be disdainful. ”

The old man bowed again.

"Hey, hey, old man, the little goblin is no problem, just leave it to us. ”

Zhu Bajie next to him patted his chest and said confidently.

Seeing Zhu Bajie's expression, the old man was also happy in his heart, but then he frowned again.

"I've already helped you capture the demon, why do you still have a gloomy face?"

Sun Wukong obviously noticed the change in the old man, and couldn't help but ask strangely.

"That... A few elders, if you want to subdue the demon, you need to write a letter of guarantee?"

After hesitation, the old man still said cautiously.

"What, your old man is so unreasonable, I'll help you get rid of the demon, and you need to write a letter of guarantee. ”

Not only Zhu Bajie, but Sun Wukong and several others also looked at him in astonishment.

Along the way, they have helped many countries and villages to subdue demons, and they have to write a guarantee for the first time.

"Don't blame the elders!

Seeing that Zhu Bajie and the others were a little annoyed, the old man hurriedly stepped forward.

"Old donor, what kind of suffering can be said together. ”

Tang Seng, who was sitting on the side, said calmly.

It's still the master who is sensible and calm, and he really has some skills.

The old man who sighed in his heart quickly explained.

"In the past two years, I have also invited the mage and the Taoist chief, but unfortunately they all died at the hands of the goblins, and the village has already paid the reward, but the apprentices and grandchildren of the two still blame us and others, and we need to compensate for the lives of their masters, and they also went to the government to complain, and some time ago they were still making trouble in the village. So it's okay to subdue the demons, and the village will be heavily rewarded, but..."

Although the old man didn't finish his words, Sun Wukong understood them.

The faces of the few people who looked at each other were all weird.
