Chapter 66: Be Honest
"It turned out to be a rat ......"
Ruan Jiu let out a sigh and looked to his side again. Lu Yunyi was sleeping quietly on the hay, and not far away, Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie Sha Seng were also asleep.
Ruan Jiu glanced outside the cave, the silver moonlight sprinkled outside, and the ground seemed to be covered with a faint layer of silver sand. Thinking that Sun Wukong was still outside, Ruan Jiu had the urge to go out and have a look.
In order not to wake up the others, Ruan Jiu tried to keep quiet as much as possible, and tiptoed outside the cave.
The temperature in the mountains at night was much colder than during the day, and Ruan Jiu couldn't help but shiver as soon as he walked out of the cave. Looking around, I just saw Sun Wukong sitting on a rock with his back against a pine tree.
Sun Wukong also spotted Ruan Jiu, and when he saw her coming, he jumped off the rock.
"What's wrong?" Sun Wukong looked at Ruan Jiu and asked.
"Senior brother, why don't you go in and rest? I'll watch for you. Ruan Jiu smiled faintly at Sun Wukong and said.
Sun Wukong waved his hand: "It's cold in the mountains, what are you doing when you come out as a girl? ”
Ruan Jiu pouted, she was not sleepy at all now. Let her go back to the cave than blow the mountain breeze here.
"I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well chat with you for a while!"
Sun Wukong had no choice but to go with her. The two walked to the pile of rocks, and Sun Wukong gave up his previous seat to Ruan Jiu. I sat on the other side of the rock.
"Senior brother, do you think there is a magic weapon in this world that can travel through time and space?" Ruan Jiu asked softly with his arms clasped around his knees and leaning on the trunk of a tree.
"Time travel?" Sun Wukong frowned slightly. "As far as I know, even the Buddha can't do this ability to mobilize space, right?"
Ruan Jiu sighed and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
"What's wrong? Why do you suddenly ask this?" asked Sun Wukong.
"It's nothing, it's just a little homesick all of a sudden. ”
"You mean your family?"
"Hmm. I don't know how they're doing now......"
Sun Wukong looked at Ruan Jiu, and then also looked up at the moon in the sky.
"You're much better than me, I'm a natural stone monkey. Heaven is the father and the earth is the mother, if it weren't for the guidance of the Bodhisattva, I'm afraid I would still be crushed under the Five Elements Mountain. ”
Ruan Jiu was slightly stunned, and then realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing. So he hurriedly said: "How many people in this heaven and earth can be naturally conceived? How many people like you can't envy it!"
"Oh, is it?" said Sun Wukong.
"Of course, don't you still have Huaguo Mountain? Those monkeys and monkeys are all your relatives. There are still a few of us now, and we are already closer together than relatives. ”
After listening to Ruan Jiu's words, Sun Wukong couldn't help but smile and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at talking." ”
Ruan Jiu smiled. After thinking about it, he suddenly asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, if it's one day...... I mean if. One day you found out that I had lied to you...... Are you going to be angry with me?" said Ruan Jiu, who secretly looked at Sun Wukong, wanting to see how he would react.
Unexpectedly, Sun Wukong suddenly smiled mysteriously at her. Ruan Jiu chuckled violently in his heart, and secretly said in his heart that he wouldn't say anything wrong, right?
Sun Wukong said lightly: "Do you want to say that you didn't come to the Bodhisattva?"
Ruan Jiu gasped, and the whole person was stunned on the spot.
"Senior brother, I'm ......"
Sun Wukong waved his hand at her: "At the beginning, you said that you were instructed by the Bodhisattva to send Tang Seng to the West Heaven to learn scriptures. At the time, I suspected you were lying. It's just that because I don't know what you're trying to do, I didn't expose you. After speaking, Sun Wukong glanced at Ruan Jiu, who looked surprised, and continued.
"After that, I went to Putuo Mountain in person, and then I learned that the Bodhisattva had not arranged for anyone else to join the team except for the Eight Precepts and the Sha Sang. After learning all this, I also thought about asking you face to face. And yet I didn't do it, do you know why?"
Ruan Jiu shook his head, his heart was already pounding nervously.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong reached out and gently patted Ruan Jiu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "The reason why I didn't say it is because I didn't feel any fierce aura on your body. In other words, you don't want to be bad for Master or us. ”
Sun Wukong paused for a moment and continued: "Then you almost lost your life to save me, which also made me understand a little. Your presence may really be just an accident. Although I don't know exactly what your purpose is yet, I believe that you will never do anything to harm Master. This point of view is still there for my grandson. ”
"Senior Brother......
After listening to Sun Wukong's words, Ruan Jiu inexplicably felt his eyes sour. It turned out that her lies had already been discovered, and she was secretly happy because of the loss. I have to say that Sun Wukong's words moved Ruan Jiu very much.
Sun Wukong gently touched Ruan Jiu's head and said with a smile: "Since Master has accepted you as an apprentice, then you are my Sun Wukong's junior sister." That will never change. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Ruan Jiu finally couldn't hold back. The whole person burst into tears at once. This made Sun Wukong overwhelmed.
"Why are you still crying?"
"I ...... I was just so impressed...... Woohoo......"
Ruan Jiu sobbed quietly while wiping his tears.
Sun Wukong shook his head helplessly, and was trying to comfort her. saw Ruan Jiu take a deep breath and said to himself.
"Actually, I don't belong to your world. I traveled from another plane. ”
"Another plane?"
Sun Wukong frowned suspiciously, obviously he didn't understand Ruan Jiu's answer very well.
Ruan Jiu took a deep breath. Now that we've started, let's just finish it all.
So, Ruan Jiu told Sun Wukong how he crossed and how he inexplicably became a white snake spirit.
After listening to Ruan Jiu's story, Sun Wukong didn't react for a long time.
"Xiao Jiu, what you said is true?" Sun Wukong said.
"Really! If you don't believe me, I can swear to God!" Ruan Jiu looked at Sun Wukong with a serious face.
“...... I really didn't expect such a miraculous thing in this world. Before, I thought it was very strange, how could you resist the erosion of the blue fire with your cultivation of less than a hundred years? Now that I think about it, it may have something to do with your so-called crossing. Sun Wukong said in a deep voice.
Ruan Jiu shook his head: "I don't know this myself. At that time, I was only thinking about saving you as soon as possible, and I didn't think about anything else. ”
Sun Wukong looked at Ruan Jiu and sighed lightly for a long time: "You can tell me this, it is enough to show that my previous opinion is right." Don't worry, no matter who you are or where you come from? I believe that Master and Bajie will all think the same way as me. ”
