It has been more than a month since Zhu Ganglie surrendered to the three demons, on this day, Tang Sanzang and others passed through a city, and the four masters and apprentices walked into the city, but they saw that there was no one on the streets of the city, and every household closed its door.

The most strange thing is that there is a bamboo cage at the entrance of each house, which is tightly covered with a red cloth, and the cry of a child is faintly heard in it.

Seeing this, Tang Sanzang had doubts in his heart, and instructed the monkey:

"Wukong, you go and see what this bamboo cage mouth is in, and by the way, ask why. ”

Hearing this, the monkey got the order, and used the golden hoop stick to pick open the nearest bamboo cage to everyone, only to see a baby about three or four years old sitting in the bamboo cage, looking at the monkey and others curiously.

Seeing this, the monkey stared at it, and continued to pick up the other bamboo cages on both sides of the street that were covered with red cloths, and found that all the babies were about three to six years old were imprisoned inside, and such a bizarre thing immediately aroused the monkey's curiosity.

When Zhu Ganglie, who was following Tang Sanzang's side, saw the bamboo cages on both sides of the street, he understood that this was the country of bhikshus.

"Wukong, you go and ask the people in this city why they put babies in this bamboo cage, isn't it cruel and inhumane to do so. ”

Tang Sanzang shouted a Buddha horn, his face showed a hint of compassion, and he hurriedly gave a word of advice to the monkey.

The monkey nodded in response, came to the door of a courtyard, knocked on the door, and after a long time, only to hear the door "squeak" open, and the head of a middle-aged man poked out of it.

The middle-aged man was frightened when he saw the monkey's monster face, and as soon as he moved his arm, he was about to close the courtyard door, but the monkey stretched out his feet and got stuck in the crack of the door, preventing the middle-aged man's intention to close the door.

"Demon ...... The monster is coming, help!"

The middle-aged man shouted loudly, fearful of the monkey.

"Don't shout, don't shout, I'm not a monster, I'm a good person. ”

After some explanation, the middle-aged man finally believed that the monkey was a good demon and harmless to people.

"My grandson, let me ask you, what's going on with the bamboo cage on this street, and why is there this child in it. ”

Seeing the monkey asking, the middle-aged man showed a painful expression on his face.

"This lord, do you know, our bhikshu king likes the art of immortality, three years ago, an old Taoist came with a stunning daughter, the king was immediately fascinated, named the old Taoist as the abbot, his daughter as the beauty, the abbot called the daughter a fairy, and the king can pick yin and yang, since then the king is happy every night, but so far it has been sluggish.

The national teacher said that as long as the hearts of 1,100 children were used as medicine primers, the king's immortality would be successful, so the king ordered the children in the city to be put in bamboo cages, and sent troops to fetch them three days later. ”

While speaking, the middle-aged man wiped his tears and watched his children being killed as medicine, and his heart must have been extremely uncomfortable.

After inquiring about this matter clearly, the monkey basically determined that the national teacher and queen of the bhikshu country must be transformed by monsters, and after telling Tang Sanzang about this matter, Tang Sanzang sighed, and discussed for a while, planning to go to the palace early tomorrow morning to change the official documents, if the national teacher and queen are really monsters, Tang Sanzang in order to save these more than 1,000 children, must get rid of these two monsters that have brought disaster to the country and the people.

The four of them found an inn to stay in, and at night the monkey and Zhu Ganglie cast a spell to rescue more than 1,000 children in the city, and entered the palace early the next morning to meet the king of the bhikshu kingdom.

In the main hall of the palace of the bhikshu country, the king of the bhikshu country sat on the golden chair, his eyes were scattered, his face was pale, his blood was empty, and there was a stunning girl sitting beside him, leaning on the king's side in a sultry posture, but his eyes looked at a Taoist priest in the hall, full of tenderness, it is not difficult to see that the two of them definitely have ulterior secrets.

"Your Majesty, last night for some reason, more than 1,000 children in the country of bhikshus disappeared overnight. ”

With a young face, the national teacher of the fairy wind and bones looked solemn, and secretly guessed that there were foreign monsters who had taken a fancy to these children, so they took the opportunity to rob them.

After hearing the report of the national teacher, the face of the king of the bhikshu country, who was originally vain in qi and blood, became even more ugly, and his state was already hanging by a thread.

"Ahem, national teacher, how should this be? ”

The king of the bhikshu kingdom sighed and sat down in his chair with no breath.

At this time, I saw an attendant in the palace to report.

"Your Majesty, Tang Sanzang, the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty in Middle Earth, with three apprentices, is now waiting outside the hall. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the national teacher of the bhikshu country flashed, and he muttered to himself, the holy monk from the Tang Dynasty in Middle Earth is none other than the rumored Tang Sanzang who can live forever after eating his meat.

"Your Majesty, your illness has been saved, and you don't need those medicines anymore. ”

The national teacher of the bhikshu country reported to the king with a look of surprise.

After hearing the words of the national teacher, the king of the bhikshu country, who had originally felt that he was terminally ill, suddenly came to his senses again, sat up from the golden chair, and asked in a speech.

"What is the recipe for the national teacher, please tell me quickly, so as to save the widow's life. ”

"Your Majesty, don't panic, that medicine is the monk who is preparing to meet outside the hall, that Tang Sanzang is the reincarnation of a great monk, and it is rumored that as long as you eat his meat, you will be able to live forever. ”

The national teacher of the bhikshu country squinted his eyes and explained.

Hearing this, the king of the bhikshu kingdom showed a trace of worry on his face, and said with some hesitation.

"National teacher, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to kill that Tang Sanzang! That Tang Sanzang is from the Tang Dynasty in Middle Earth, and the Tang Emperor has a vast sea frontier and a great reputation, so how can a small vassal state of this king be offended. ”

After hearing the concern of the king of the bhikshu kingdom, the national teacher's eyes flashed and he took it into account.

"The king doesn't have to worry about this matter, this Tang Dynasty is far away from my bhikshu country, how can the Tang king be angry with my bhikshu country for the sake of a mere monk, and besides, His Majesty killed this monk unknowingly, how can the Tang King know, compared with immortality, which is more important, poor Dao believes that His Majesty has his own decision. ”

The national teacher is good and seductive.

Being explained by the national teacher, the king of the bhikshu kingdom was instantly moved.

"Then, according to the words of the national teacher, quickly announce the Tang monk's visit. ”

The king of the bhikshu kingdom was shaken and commanded to the attendants.

The attendant took the order and left, and a moment later, Tang Sanzang and the other masters and apprentices walked into the main hall.

"Poor monk Tang Sanzang, meet His Majesty the King of the Bhikshu Kingdom. ”

Tang Sanzang clasped his hands together and greeted respectfully.

"It turned out to be a holy monk of the Tang Dynasty, and he was not welcomed, and the king was sick, so it was inconvenient to get up to greet him, and he asked the holy monk to forgive his sins. ”

The king of the Bhikshu Kingdom smiled reluctantly and said politely to Tang Sanzang.

At this time, I saw the monkey interject.

"Your Majesty, you are not sick, but you are overindulged, and your essence is absorbed by demons, which causes Your Majesty's qi and blood to be vain, and you look sick. ”

"This ...... This strong man, there are no goblins in this palace, this matter is pure nonsense. ”

The king of the bhikshu kingdom did not believe what the monkey said, and a scornful expression appeared on his face.

"Your Majesty, of course, mortals can't tell the truth of a goblin from a mortal, the beauty queen next to you is a fox spirit, and your national teacher is also a deer spirit. ”

The monkey squinted his eyes at the national teacher and the queen, and explained sharply.

After hearing the monkey's words, the bhikshu national teacher angrily rebuked:

"Demon monkey, you are talking nonsense, poor Dao sees that your group of people are monsters, come to bewitch Your Majesty, a monkey demon, a pig demon, uneasy and kind, Your Majesty's poor monk suggested that it be taken down. ”

"This ......"

The king of the bhikshu kingdom hesitated, and at this time, he saw the demon queen sitting next to the king fanning the flames and said:

"Your Majesty, that demon monkey looks so vicious, it must not be a good person, please take it down quickly, the concubine is scared. ”

Told by the queen that the king of the bhikshu kingdom suddenly turned his heart sideways and commanded the guards on the left and right.

"Come on, take this Tang monk to this king. ”

As the words fell, a group of soldiers walked out and rushed to Tang Sanzang and the others.
