Sun Wukong and Jiang Liu'er walked down the hillside, and sure enough, they found a path, and the two did not dare to walk in the middle of the road, for fear of being seen by the Dapeng bird, so they clinged to the trees on the side of the road and walked forward carefully.

Not long after the two left, they suddenly heard a whistle, and more than ten big men rushed out of the roadside, eight or nine brandished knives and guns, and four or five held bows and arrows, surrounding Sun Wukong and Jiang Liuer in the middle.

Jiang Liu'er had never seen such a scene, and said, "What is the matter with the donors? ”

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "Jiang Liu'er, this is for us." ”

Hearing Sun Wukong say that those people were sent to the plate, Jiang Liu'er was still wondering there, and a few people who stood in the way pointed at Wukong and smiled: "Look at this little monk doesn't look like a rich man, but this monkey can actually talk, and if he catches it, he can sell it for dozens of taels of silver." ”

Sun Wukong deliberately teased those people: "You guys don't know how to buy the goods, this little monk just bought me for a hundred taels of silver, and you actually sold it for dozens of taels." ”

When the thieves heard this, they were even more happy, and the leader said: "One hundred taels is better, this little monk can afford a hundred taels of silver, he must be a rich man, you leave the silver, and let you go, if not, I will call you a headless wild ghost today." ”

Sun Wukong pointed to his head and smiled: "My head is very hard, even if I die, I have a ghost, don't believe you come to try?"

With that, stretch your neck forward. When the gang of thieves heard Wukong say that his head was hard, one of them came forward with a knife and tried to cut it. The leader behind him shouted, "Light, don't really hack to death, and you will lose a hundred taels of silver." ”

The thief used only three points of his strength at first, and slashed at Sun Wukong's neck, and Sun Wukong shouted: "Too light, too light." The thief looked carefully, and there was not even a trace on the neck of the great sage, so he said, "This monkey's neck is really hard." It took seven or eight points of strength, but there was still no trace at all, the thief was in a hurry, and he slashed again with all his strength, and there was only an extra white mark on the neck of the great sage.

The rest of the thieves didn't believe it, and laughed at the one just now: "You must have had diarrhea a few days ago, so let's try it." The thieves surrounded Sun Wukong, picked up the guy, and crackled on his head and neck a hundred and ten times, so frightened that Jiang Liuer closed his eyes, thinking that this Wukong was really miserable, just out of the Five Elements Mountain, and didn't want to die here.

Unexpectedly, I heard the gang of thieves shouting, "This monkey is really hard-headed." Sun Wukong smiled: "You think you're tired of chopping, it's time for my grandson." ”

The monkey took out the golden hoop stick from his ears and eyes, and just thought about the result of this group of thieves, and suddenly said in his heart: "I have promised Nuwa Niangniang to have good thoughts, and the gentleman has promised a thousand gold, and today I spared their lives, only to scare them." So he made the golden rod the thickness of the mouth of the bowl, and set it up to the ground, and said, "I have a treasure here, and if you can take it, I will give it to you." ”

The gang of thieves saw Sun Wukong take out the golden hoop stick from small to big, and knew that it was really a treasure, so they came over together and began to work together, and in the end, more than a dozen people worked together, but the golden hoop stick was difficult to move.

Sun Wukong said to the gang of thieves, stepped forward and gently picked up the golden hoop stick, the great sage also intended to show off in front of Jiang Liu'er, so he played a stick trick, and the golden hoop stick danced dazzlingly, the gang of thieves actually forgot that they were here to rob the road, and couldn't help but cheer: "Good magic power, good means." ”

Sun Wukong finished playing with the stick and was about to fight, and the gang of thieves shouted: "Our head is not as hard as his head, and his strength is not as great as his. ”

When the great sage saw that they wanted to run, he made a fixation method and said, "Fixed!" and those people stood in place, and then they received the fixation method, and when those people had just run a few steps, he said "fixed". The monkey sincerely teased them, and tossed them a few times, and those thieves knew that they couldn't beat them, and they couldn't run away, and when Wukong solved the fixation method again, he begged for mercy: "Ask the great immortal to raise his noble hand and spare us." ”

Wukong said: "Rao, just spare us, but you have to lend us a little entanglement." As he spoke, he called the leader, took out a package from his back, and found about dozens of taels of silver in it, and handed it over to Jiang Liu'er.

The gang of thieves begged for mercy: "Grandpa, life is not easy now, we have been in this mountain for half a month, and we have only gotten this bit of silver, and more than a dozen brothers have old and young in the family, waiting for the rice to go to the pot, ask the great immortal for mercy, and leave us some." ”

Jiang Liu'er also said: "Wukong, listen to what they say pitiful, just leave half of them." ”

Wukong said hatefully: "You see them pitiful today, I don't know how many lives they have taken on weekdays, if it weren't for Nuwa Niangniang asking me to have good thoughts, I would have killed them all today." Or take only thirty taels from them. ”

Sun Wukong took out thirty taels of silver, and returned the rest to the thief, saying, "You can't do this evil thing again in the future, go." The thieves slipped away as if they were under amnesty.

Wukong handed over the silver to Jiang Liu'er and said: "This silver has some weight, but my grandson has no memory of money, so you should take it, if you are tired of carrying it, tell me, I will take it for you." ”

The two were about to continue walking, when they suddenly heard a voice in mid-air say, "Wukong, Jiang Liu'er, stay for the time being." The two looked up and saw that it was Nuwa Niangniang, and hurriedly greeted her.

Wukong asked, "What's the matter with Niangniang?"

Nuwa Niangniang said to Wukong: "I saw everything just now, it's rare that you can let those people go, although they are evildoers, but their crimes are not to death." "It turns out that Nuwa Niangniang has been secretly observing Wukong and Jiang Liu'er.

Sun Wukong patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, when I was learning art, my master once taught me that a gentleman's word is difficult to chase a horse, and my grandson will do what he says." ”

Sun Wukong suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Niangniang, I just encountered a strange thing, the Dapeng bird came to catch Jiang Liu'er back to Jinshan Temple, I had to worship with him back then, but he didn't know me, he didn't miss the old feelings at all, Lao Sun was made by him can't do anything, he can't fly in the sky, so he has to walk step by step on the ground." ”

Nuwa Niangniang smiled and said: "Wukong, you don't know, when you made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, the Dapeng bird rushed to help you, was ambushed by Rulai, has converted to Buddhism, became a Buddhist protector, he was ordered by Rulai to take Jiang Liuer back to Jinshan Temple." ”

Wukong was still puzzled: "Even if you become a monk, you won't know me." ”

Nuwa Niangniang said with a smile: "He has eaten Rulai's 'Thousand Food Fruits', and he has forgotten the past, and he doesn't remember anything before, so he doesn't know you." ”

Wukong nodded and said, "I see. ”

Jiang Liu'er heard Wukong and Nuwa Niangniang talking about Dapeng Bird on the side, so she said to Nuwa Niangniang: "My master has been killed, I don't want to go back to Najinshan Temple, I just want to find my grandfather as soon as possible, avenge my father's blood feud, and hope that Niangniang will be fulfilled." ”

Nuwa Niangniang sighed and said: "Jiang Liu'er, your life experience is very unfortunate, I have instructed Wukong to protect you, you can rest assured, then Jinshan Temple will go back if you want to, and you won't go back if you don't want to." He turned his head and said to Wukong: "That Dapeng bird has obtained the will of Rulai, and will always pester you and Jiang Liu'er, and I will try to subdue him." Now the demons are making trouble, the world is about to be in chaos, it is a good time for you to make contributions, I think you do have the intention of reforming, and now I will give you three hairs to save your life, and I promise you to call Tiantianying, and call the earth and earth spirit. ”
