Chapter 37: The Three-Armed Ape

Zhu Bajie was originally the Marshal of Tianpeng who was in charge of 100,000 sailors in the sky, and naturally he also knew the identity of Tai Bai Xing. However, this person has always been the envoy of the Jade Emperor, and wherever he appears, the shadow of the Jade Emperor will be more or less involved. Although Zhu Bajie is very arrogant on weekdays, he is afraid of the Jade Emperor from the bottom of his heart. So as soon as Tai Bai Xing appeared, his heart began to tense inexplicably.

Tai Baixing walked in front of Zhu Bajie and bowed.

"Marshal Tianpeng, long time no see. ”

Zhu Bajie pursed his lips and said angrily: "Anyway, it's definitely not good for you to find me." ”

Tai Bai Xing smiled faintly: "Poor Dao came here to apologize to Marshal Tianpeng this time. ”

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "Old man, the watermelon on this table was really put by you." ”

Tai Bai Xing sighed lightly, and then told everyone what happened.

It turned out that the three-armed ape who was in charge of the Xi Palace some time ago sneaked down to the mortal world. When the Jade Emperor learned of this, he ordered Tai Bai Xing to go to the mortal world and capture it back to Heaven. However, the three-armed ape is extremely cunning by nature, and Tai Bai Xing has been looking for it in the mortal world for a long time but has not found it.

Because the three-armed ape loves to eat watermelons, Tai Bai Xing cast a spell here to lure it out. But I didn't want to make a mistake and was finally eaten by Zhu Bajie. That's what we had before.

Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized. After doing it for a long time, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

When Zhu Bajie heard that he was misunderstood as a monster, he not only suffered a crime in vain, but also made everyone see a big joke. So he endured the severe pain and scolded Tai Bai Xing angrily: "Okay, you Tai Bai Xing, it turns out that you arranged all this." Look at the good things you did, my old pig's stomach is about to explode!"

Tai Bai Xing bowed down and apologized again and again: "What Marshal Tianpeng taught is that he is indeed careless. ”

Sun Wukong on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he said to Zhu Bajie: "Why do you still blame others? If you weren't greedy first, how could you be like this?"

Zhu Bajie still wanted to defend a few words, but his stomach really hurt badly, and after a few words, he said to Tai Baixing: "I said, can you cure my stomach first, this old man, is it almost hurting me...... Oops, hey......"

Tai Bai Xing bowed down and said, "Marshal Tianpeng, don't worry, Poor Dao will help you unravel the spell." ”

After that, I saw him gently wave the dust in his hand. Then a blue light slowly entered Zhu Bajie's belly, which had been bulging into a ball. It is also miraculous to say that the moment that blue light entered Zhu Bajie's stomach, the latter's round belly began to retract rapidly, and soon changed back to its normal size.

Except for Sun Wukong, everyone felt magical, and they couldn't help but widen their eyes one by one.

"Marshal Tianpeng, does it still hurt now?" Tai Bai Xing smiled slightly.

Zhu Bajie touched his stomach, which had returned to normal, and said with a look of surprise: "It doesn't hurt? Haha! Master, my stomach is better!"

"Bajie, thank you Taibai Shangxian soon. Tang Seng reminded on the side.

Zhu Bajie pouted, although he was reluctant, but since the master said so, he had no choice but to salute Tai Bai Xing with a cold face.

Tai Bai Xing smiled and waved his hand: "At this time, it is indeed the fault of the poor road, and Marshal Tianpeng should not mind." ”

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Sun Wukong said to Tai Bai Xing: "Old man, you just said that the three-armed ape went down to earth privately. I wonder if it can do something harmful after it descends to earth?"

"According to the investigation of the Demon Division, although that guy fled to the mortal world in private, he did not harm anyone's life. It's just that it has been hiding in the mountains, and it is difficult to find it for a while. Tai Bai Xing said.

"Oh......"

Sun Wukong nodded thoughtfully.

"I see. ”

At this time, Tai Bai Xing's gaze suddenly fell on Ruan Jiu on the side.

"Huh, this is ......."

Ruan Jiu was slightly stunned, and was about to answer, but Tang Seng on the side had already said it for her.

"Her name is Ruan Jiu, and she is a new apprentice of a poor monk. Tang Seng clasped his hands together and said softly.

"She's also Elder Tang's apprentice?" Tai Bai Xing's eyes widened in confusion. It seems like a strange thing about this.

"I said, old man, why do you feel surprised that my master accepts apprentices?" Sun Wukong came behind Tai Bai Xing at some point, and suddenly asked.

Tai Bai Xing hurriedly snorted and said with a smile: "Where is this the Great Sage? Even if he is an apprentice accepted by the elder, he must also have something extraordinary. As he spoke, he turned around and saluted Ruan Jiu, who was standing beside the sand monk.

"Miss Ruan Jiu, the poor way is reasonable. ”

Seeing this, Ruan Jiu hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Immortal." ”

Tai Bai Xing glanced Ruan Jiu up and down, and an imperceptible light flashed in his deep eyes.

Since the magic circle was broken, Tai Bai Xing needed to go back to Heaven to report the truth of the matter to the Jade Emperor. After everyone said goodbye to each other, Tai Bai Xing disappeared into the clouds.

Before leaving, as compensation for the accidental injury of Zhu Bajie. Tai Bai Xing specially gave each person a large emerald green watermelon.

Embarking on the road to the west again, Ruan Jiu asked Sun Wukong, who was walking in the front: "Senior brother, do you say that three-armed ape will be very powerful?"

Sun Wukong glanced at her and smiled: "Do you know it?"

"I'm just curious about how I knew it. ”

Sun Wukong shook his head: "Actually, the so-called three-armed ape is just a monkey who has cultivated well." I've heard Guanyin talk about it before. It is said that in Danzhou, there was a giant ape with six arms. The giant ape was a hundred feet tall and powerful. The local people are all afraid of it. Later, when Heavenly Court learned about this, he sent Li Tianwang and his son Nezha to lead the gods to the Danzhou Ping Demon. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Wukong glanced up at the sky in the distance.

"What happened later?" Ruan Jiu quickly asked.

"Although the six-armed giant ape is naturally strong, how can it be the opponent of those gods? After several fierce battles, he finally couldn't hold on, not only was his vitality greatly damaged, but half of his six arms were cut off. ”

"It's so miserable......" Hearing this, Ruan Jiu couldn't help but shudder in his heart.

Sun Wukong said with a smile: "Those gods are just relying on the number of people, if they fight alone, then the six-armed ape will not necessarily lose!"

Ruan Jiu nodded secretly, his own strength that could fight with the gods to such a point would naturally not be much worse.

"The six-armed ape was caught, and the old man of the Jade Emperor originally wanted to correct it on the spot. As a result, he was seen by Guanyin Bodhisattva, who happened to be passing by. The Bodhisattva was merciful, and saw that the six-armed ape was quite spiritual. So he asked the Jade Emperor for a favor. So the Jade Emperor punished the six-armed ape monkey to go to the Xi Palace to guard the palace gate. In this way, it will grind away the demonic nature in its heart. Sun Wukong said.
