Chapter 10: Apprenticeship (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
Xu Wu penetrated into the jungle, and the deeper he went, he found a lot of strange things. The long snake wrapped around the branches of the tree spat out the letter, waiting for the opportunity to move. The sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves behind the bushes became louder and louder, and the occasional sharp gaze on the top did not know whether it was a fox dog or a wild wolf.
Xu Wu relied on his fast speed, didn't care about it for now, and suddenly braked sharply, not daring to move forward. Not far away, two lying tigers slowly stood upright and looked at themselves.
Xu Wu saw the two big cats blinking their eyes, sticking out their tongues and licking their faces, which looked as tame as they had seen in the zoo before. Maybe you're in a good mood, can you just pass by?
Xu Wu clenched the handle with both hands, and was pre-starting.
"Whew-"
One of the tigers opened its mouth and roared, and the thunder shook the heads of the snakes on the branches. The two tigers slowly approached, Xu Wu couldn't help but shudder, no matter how you look at it, the other party's mood is not very beautiful, and there is no master to mess with in the jungle.
Xu Wu didn't dare to move, for fear of escaping and angering the tiger. He began to think of ways to save himself, opened the system and exchanged the "weapon" that came to mind at the first time.
Xu Wu picked up a string of firecrackers worth 10 exchange coins and a lighter worth 1 exchange currency from the ground, lit the firecrackers, turned grief and anger into strength, and threw them out in the direction of the tiger.
As soon as they landed, the two beasts saw the red shape and thought it was a large skewer of sausages, and as soon as they got closer, the firecrackers began to explode.
"Crackle, crackle, crackle, crackle......"
The sound of firecrackers was no less than the roar of the tiger just now, fierce and long, and the billowing smoke and the pungent smell frightened the tiger to flee in the opposite direction.
Xu Wu stepped on the electric car and hit the road easily, not forgetting to glance at the system balance, and there was 1219 left in the exchange currency, and a faint sadness flooded his heart.
After driving aimlessly for half an hour, Xu realized that he was hungry, stopped the car, lifted a steel fork, and prepared to find a game nearby to satisfy his hunger.
"Gurgle. Gurgle. Boom ......"
From far to near, Xu Wu, who was bending down to search, heard the sound, and when he looked up, a shiny light bulb slowly rose on the horizon in the distance. After a while, he saw clearly that it was a large round bald head, which turned out to be a monk with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, who had come on horseback.
Xu Wu couldn't help but sound a childhood classic in his head: "The white dragon horse, with its hooves facing west, carrying Tang Sanzang and following his apprentices......"
Finally waited for you, fortunately I didn't give up, Xu Wu smiled and blossomed, who else could this single monk in the deep mountains and old forests?
The monk looked around on horseback, looking panicked, when the lone wolf looked around and the snake and insect approached. Even the horse was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground. It turned out that two fierce tigers walked out of the diagonal front, and the monk was so frightened that he rolled off his horse, and the horse couldn't beat it, and he couldn't pull it.
Xu Wu stood on a high place, looking down at the two tigers, one of whom had a red piece of paper stuck to its back. Xu Wu smiled, obviously the two just now.
"Smack!"
Between the tiger and the monk, there was a sudden inexplicable loud noise. The two big cats stopped and looked around, not knowing where they came from. Even the monk was so frightened that his legs couldn't stop shaking.
"Bang! bang!"
In the same place, three more explosions were made in a row. Directly scare away those lone wolves and tigers, snakes and insects are hidden.
Xu Wu snickered at the top of the hill, this time, it only cost 5 exchange coins in exchange for a box of broken guns. This thing is much more convenient to use than firecrackers, and it is inexpensive.
The monk looked up and saw a delicate man holding a steel fork on the top of the hillside, wearing a golden helmet, wearing white clothes and blue pants that he had never seen before, and a black belt floating on his chest. The monk's tears almost rolled down, this is his savior.
When he saw Xu Wu approaching, he directly "pounced" and knelt down, folded his hands, and shouted: "King help! King help!"
"Giggles!" Xu Wu couldn't help but laugh out loud with "Journey to the West" in his hand, Tang Sanzang's reaction was really the same as the first time he saw Liu Boqin in the book. He stepped forward to help Tang Sanzang up, and read directly into the lines of the book: "Elder don't be afraid. I'm not a villain, I'm a hunter in this mountain, surnamed Liu...... Not true!"
Xu Wu immediately closed the book, almost re-read the wrong name, and continued to speak: "The surname is Xu Mingwu." I wanted to hunt some game, but I met you, and there were many collisions, no wonder, no wonder. ”
Tang Sanzang saw that Xu Wu was white and pure, with a slender body, not like a hunter, but he was not suspicious, and replied: "The poor monk is a monk sent by the Tang Dynasty to worship the Buddha in the west and ask for scriptures. When I came here, I encountered some wolves, tigers, snakes and insects, surrounded on all sides, and could not move forward. Suddenly, I saw the Taibao coming, all the beasts left, and saved the life of the poor monk, thank you! Thank you!"
Although he knew the answer earlier, the other party said his identity in person, dispelling Xu Wu's last doubts. He stepped forward, picked up the horse, clasped his hands into fists and bowed, "Don't thank me. I'm also a Tang person, and I'm a fellow countryman. I am devoted to the Buddha, can the elders accept me as an apprentice, and let me walk along the path of learning the scriptures. ”
Tang Sanzang was surprised and delighted, happy to have this person by his side, the tiger beast was not afraid, surprised that this person was so idle, and still expressed his concerns: "This time, I don't know when I can return." The fast is three or two years, and the slow is more than ten years. Are you free?"
Xu Wu nodded again and again: "I am free and free, I have lived alone for a long time, worshipped devoutly, and I also want to contribute to Datang." ”
Tang Sanzang was overjoyed, such an active and capable apprentice, he walked to the horse, took out a black razor from his bag, and said, "Since you are willing to take refuge in Buddhism, I will help you shave your degree." ”
Xu Wu was so shocked that he covered his helmet and said with a wry smile: "I believe in Buddhism, but shouldn't I be a monk?" This is his credo.
Tang Sanzang saw that Xu Wu was like this, and he was afraid that his apprentice would run away, so he didn't force it, and said with a smile: "It's okay." I feel a little more shaved. With that, he put away the razor.
Xu Wu raised his head, saw the sun setting in the west, and hurriedly led the horse and motioned to Tang Sanzang to get on the horse: "Master, it's getting dark, let's go quickly." ”
Tang Sanzang sat down skillfully, and was ashamed to ride a horse alone, letting Xu Wu, who was thinner than himself, walk, so he said, "Xu Wu, you also ride up." ”
Xu Wu saw that Tang Sanzang still had a big bag behind his buttocks, and he was hard on it, this horse was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he smiled, pointed to the front and said, "I have my own horse." ”
Xu Wu led the horse, came to the parking position of the electric car, started the car, slowed down, and led the way ahead.
Tang Sanzang saw this large unidentified object moving, and because he was not familiar with Xu Wu, he didn't want to ask too much.
Xu Wu wanted to give up the horse and let Tang Sanzang also get on the electric car, but seeing his plump body, the sloppy brother's car couldn't hold it visually. If you give him another car alone, you will have to spend time training, and now we will get out of this mountain range first.
However, this mountain range is much bigger than expected, Xu Wu looked at the phone screen, it was half past eight, a little late.
"Goo-"
There was a sound behind him, Xu Wu turned around, and Tang Sanzang covered his lower abdomen embarrassedly.
Xu Wu pondered, how could he forget this? So he stopped the car and said, "Then let's rest." ”
