Early the next morning, the father and son of the old county king set off with Xuanzang.

In the heat wave, a horse-drawn carriage "babbled" towards the west, walking on the vast Gobi Desert. There are flying sand and rocks all around, and behind them, a large number of monsters are quietly followed, and the scene can be described as vast and terrifying.

Fortunately, the father and son of the county king did not know.

At this moment, they are still immersed in gratitude to Xuanzang.

The old king thought that it must be a monk who could summon wind and rain with every move, and the prince believed in his father's words. As soon as the two sang and harmonized, they almost held Xuanzang to the sky.

The embarrassment in this may only be known to Xuanzang himself.

In the midst of this praise, Xuanzang was always silent, looking towards the east from time to time. All the way to the west, over the years, he has been obsessed with the East for perhaps only this moment.

In the driest place, there was a well dug with his own hands, which would have saved many people, but now it will only be forgotten in that uninhabited corner, perhaps...... No one will ever use the water.

The carriage that was not firm was "babbling" in the ups and downs, and the old county king and the prince almost took turns to talk to Xuanzang, as if they were afraid that one would accidentally snub Xuanzang and offend the Buddha.

Faced with this situation, Xuanzang could only smile bitterly.

He didn't know who the "Buddha" of grace was, but it was almost certain that the kindness was indeed related to himself, but it was by no means because he "moved the Buddha" as the old county prince and his son said.

If the Buddha can really be moved, there is no need for him to go all the way to the west.

One hundred and eight thousand miles, that is far away that mortals dare not imagine. But now it seems that it is still too far from the path of preaching.

Slowly close your eyes. Xuanzang quietly waited for the moment to meet the Buddha in the mouth of the prince.

There is no doubt that Xuanzang's mood at this time is only two words - "helpless".

However, if you want to say helplessness, there is another person who is even more than him.

......

"Master, listen to the six-eared macaque, you promised to rescue the agarwood. Qingxin wanted to ask. When will the master make a move?" When he said this, Qingxin's eyes were like torches, and his tone was even a little unkind.

That smiling face was like a bitter melon.

Hearing this, Su Bodhi just sighed and looked up at the sky, without saying a word. The old gentleman on the other side wanted to laugh a little.

This performance confirmed Qingxin's conjecture at the beginning, and he couldn't help but have a bad breath in his heart, and he was even more panicked.

"Master, you won't be a perfunctory six-eared macaque, will you?"

Su Bodhi still didn't say a word, and the old gentleman on the side was about to laugh.

Qingxin immediately glared at Lao Jun: "Master Bodhi doesn't save it." Then how about the Taishang master's rescue?"

"This ......" was asked like this, Lao Jun was a little stunned, and hurriedly said: "He promised, what are you looking for me for?"

"He's also your apprentice!"

"Isn't he the three-star cave of the slanting moon that he entered? and not the old man's Tushi Palace. ”

"I'm still in the three-star cave of the slanting moon!" Qingxin suddenly became angry. She stood up suddenly, glared angrily, and shouted, "I knew it wasn't that easy! Now that the agarwood has been taken away, you still don't care! What use do I want you two masters to do?"

This glance passed. Lao Jun suddenly lost his temper, so he had to look at Su Bodhi, who was silent, quietly waved his hand, pulled Qingxin aside, and whispered: "How can you talk like that? Agarwood salvation is definitely salvation. But certainly not now. ”

"Not now, when was that?"

"When, God knows. Lao Jun spread his hands and said: "The person was taken away by the king of Jizo, although we are both his elders, but what should we take to talk to the Buddhism? This is a major event involving Xuanzang's westward journey, Agarwood, and an insignificant child. Do you want us to give up something important to get him back?"

"I still don't matter! Is it going to be that one day, you're going to sell me too?"

"How do you speak?

"Just talk like this, love to listen or not!" Qingxin folded his hands and stopped talking angrily.

Su Bodhi simply closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to care. Seeing this, Lao Jun had no choice but to pull Qingxin's sleeve, pull her farther away, and said in a low voice: "Girl." This agarwood is the apprentice grandson of the teacher, and the teacher is actually very concerned about his safety. ”

"Really?" Qingxin glared at Lao Jun with some suspicion.

"Of course it's true. Lao Jun smiled awkwardly, stretched out his hand and gestured and whispered: "However, isn't he not in danger? Besides, even if you die, it's a big deal to be resurrected. Even if the soul is gone...... Hehe, there's still a way to put it back, it's just a matter of time. It's just a matter of time. ”

"Doesn't what you said mean you didn't say it?"

"Haven't you said that yet?" Lao Jun replied pretending to be ignorant: "Isn't this what should be said? You see, he is not in danger at all, and when he arrives at the Buddha Gate, he must be well fed and clothed." Maybe it's ...... Whew!"

After finishing speaking, Qingxin had already stepped on Lao Jun's upper with a heavy foot, and Lao Jun screamed out when he stepped on it.

"You girl is getting more and more talkative, you're actually, my beard!"

Pulling Lao Jun's beard again, Qingxin turned his head and glared at Su Bodhi, turned around and left.

Behind him, Lao Jun hurriedly shouted: "This matter is related to the westward journey, you must not let the six-eared macaque know that the old man Bodhi does not save Agarwood!

Turning around, Qingxin picked up the stone on the ground and threw it at Lao Jun fiercely.

Lao Jun's eyes flashed quickly, and the stone hit Su Bodhi's head behind him.

Su Bodhi, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, was smashed so hard, but his body only shook slightly, and there was no movement at all.

Looking at the back of Qingxin leaving, Lao Jun crossed his waist and sighed long, and said with a wry smile: "Look at the trouble you caused, hey...... Pure-hearted girl, it's time to hold a grudge against the old man. In all these years, she had never lost her temper with me like this. What a disaster. ”

After that, he glanced back at Su Bodhi and said, "It's all gone, still pretending?"

Su Bodhi opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Lao Jun helplessly, and said slowly: "The little girl has a temper, and if she has it, she will be fine." I can't explain this, so I can only carry it hard. ”

Lao Jun rolled up his sleeves and walked to the original futon step by step, sat down, reached out and took a pastry, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and chuckled: "Why haven't I seen such embarrassment as you when I accept apprentices? As a result, when I look at it now, it was pure luck! What a waste of the old man's expectations. ”

In the face of Lao Jun's ridicule, Su Bodhi selectively ignored it.

After a moment of silence, he said with some concern: "You say, will she tell the truth to the six-eared macaque?"

"No, it won't. Lao Jun shook his head and said: "The innocent girl is spoiled by us and is bold, but she dares to do anything, but she doesn't dare to risk the monkey's thing." Once she gets involved with Xixing, she will definitely not dare to mess around. Of course, it's hard to say whether there will be other tricks. If you can't figure it out, I'm looking for help right now. ”

After that, Lao Jun laughed hehehe.

On the other side, Su Bodhi's face was slightly solemn.

......

At this time, Qingxin, who had walked away, quietly took out a piece of jade slip and held it in his hand, hesitating.

After a long time, he took out another piece and put it to his lips.

......

In just five days, with a carriage, sufficient water and food, after five days, Xuanzang and his entourage had already crossed the Gobi Desert, left the small Fengxian County, and came to a verdant wilderness.

When he saw this green space, the old county king almost thought that his old eyes were dizzy, and he kept blinking.

"It's ...... I remember that this place was a desert before, how did it ...... How did this happen?"

"The boy doesn't know. Shizi said happily: "It should be the Buddha's great powers, and when the child first came, he was also shocked." ”

From a distance, Xuanzang saw huts appearing one after another on the hillside, and smoke rising one after another. As we got closer, we could clearly see that more huts were still under construction, and the construction site was in full swing.

When many people saw the carriage coming along the path, they immediately put down their work and greeted them from afar. The old county king was also so happy that he poked his head out of the window and waved violently in response.

In the carriage, Xuanzang was still sitting quietly, looking up and seeing that Shizi was looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, he immediately nodded and smiled back.

Seeing this, Shizi immediately explained: "The villagers in the township all know each other. After all these years of wandering, I finally had a place to live, and I heard that my disciple was going to pick up my father, and everyone was very happy. There are still a few old people in Fengxian County, and in the next few days, let the carriage run a few more times so that they can reunite with their families. ”

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and said lightly: "The son of the world is generous." ”

The carriage continued slowly.

Soon we passed by a large area of farmland.

This is all freshly divided land, and the crops in the field have not yet had time to be planted.

As the farmland became denser and the roads were lined with more and more people, by sunset, a small town slowly appeared in front of the carriage.

The black tiles and white walls look new and neat from a distance, but they are also very simple. Unlike other towns, there are five seven-story floating towers built in the middle of that town.

The moment he saw the tower, Xuanzang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

The prince on the side said softly: "That's the tower of the 'Great Leiyin Temple' in the town. It was the wonderful method of the Buddha and was built overnight. (To be continued.) )
