After leaving Luoyi Town, the master and apprentice set out on the westward journey again. On this day, the people went to a mountain stream. Tang Seng saw that it was lunch time, so he said to the apprentices: "Apprentices, let's rest here." ”

Everyone should be, Zhu Bajie hurriedly helped Tang Seng off the horse and carefully led him to a rock.

"Master, you still understand my old pig, my stomach is actually growling with hunger for a long time. Zhu Bajie said while holding his huge belly with one hand.

Tang Seng smiled faintly and said, "As a teacher, I'm actually a little hungry." ”

At this time, Sha Seng took out a piece of cracked baked cake from his luggage.

"Master, we only have this left to eat. ”

Zhu Bajie saw that Sha Seng only had a piece of baked cake in his hand, and hurriedly reached out and snatched it over.

"That's all there is to ......it? How can this be divided, this ......" After speaking, he looked at the baked cake in his hand and hesitated for a long time, and finally handed it to Tang Seng.

"Master...... Let's eat it......"

Tang Seng glanced at the baked cake in Bajie's hand, and said softly: "Let's give it to Xiao Jiu to eat." ”

Seeing this, Sun Wukong, who was holding the white dragon horse on the side, smiled and said, "Bajie, don't think about eating alone this time." Anyway, you have thick skin and rough meat, and it's nothing to eat one or two meals less!"

Zhu Bajie rolled his eyes at Sun Wukong, and muttered: "Who has thick skin and rough meat? You yourself are as thin as a monkey." ”

"You're a nerd, do you want to beg for a fight?"

As soon as Sun Wukong shook the reins in his hand, he was about to rush towards Zhu Bajie. Frightened, the latter hurriedly hid behind Tang Seng.

"Master, look, Senior Brother, he wants to beat me again. ”

Tang Seng waved his hand at the two helplessly, signaling them to stop messing around.

At this time, Ruan Jiu walked over, only to see her wipe the sweat from her forehead and say, "Master, I think I should go and eat some fasting." Everyone is tired from walking all day, so you can't keep hungry, right?"

As soon as Zhu Bajie heard Ruan Jiu say that he was going to Huazhai, he immediately smiled and said to her: "This is good! The little junior sister is already good-looking, and this Huazhai rice will naturally be more than ours......

Before he finished speaking, one ear was pulled up fiercely, and he screamed in pain.

Sun Wukong pushed him away, and said angrily: "Just your point, why don't you say that you will go by yourself?"

Although Zhu Bajie has a grudge against Sun Wukong, he does not dare to be too presumptuous. I had to cover my ears and hide behind Tang Seng in a gray way.

Sun Wukong turned to Ruan Jiu and said, "With your senior brothers here, how can it be your turn to turn into a fate?" After that, Sun Wukong took the purple gold bowl in Sha Seng's hand, turned around and walked out. But after just two steps, I turned back.

"My grandson is going to have some fasting and come over, you guys are here to protect the master, don't be careless. ”

Ruan Jiu glanced at the high mountain in front of him and asked with some concern, "Senior brother, ...... here?" Will there be youkai?"

Sun Wukong scratched his cheeks and said to Ruan Jiu: "I have already seen it just now, the mountain atmosphere here is stable, and it does not look like there are signs of monsters." But you still need to be careful in everything, Master, he is not an ordinary person after all, you have to take good care of him. ”

Ruan Jiu nodded his forehead: "Well, I see." ”

After Sun Wukong left, everyone surrounded Tang Seng. As for the only remaining piece of baked cake, because Ruan Jiu didn't want to eat it, it finally fell into Zhu Bajie's stomach.

After these days of getting along, we have a deep tacit understanding with each other. Everyone did not deliberately distance themselves because Ruan Jiu was a woman. On the contrary, Master and several senior brothers were very doting on their little junior sister. This also strengthened Ruan Jiu's belief that he would travel west with them to learn from the scriptures.

Everyone was chatting when they heard a sharp birdsong in the distant sky. When I looked up, it turned out to be a huge goshawk.

I saw that after the goshawk circled in the sky for a week, it suddenly fell vertically downward. Due to the speed being so fast, everyone only saw a black shadow flashing through the sky.

Tang Seng stood up and said in surprise: "Apprentices, have you seen that eagle in the sky?"

"I saw it, but it seemed to have fallen. Zhu Bajie said.

Tang Seng was worried that the eagle would be in danger, so he said to everyone: "Which of you is going to take a look over there?"

Zhu Bajie snorted and said, "Master, what do you care about that eagle? If you fall from such a high place, you must have already fallen to your death." ”

Tang Seng glared at Zhu Bajie: "How do you teach you as a teacher on weekdays? How can a person with a heart like you go to Lingshan to meet the Buddha with a teacher?"

Zhu Bajie saw that the master was really angry, and hurriedly lowered his head and said with a look of grievance: "Master, I know it's wrong." I'm going to go over there, old pig. With that, Zhu Bajie grabbed the nine-toothed nail rake on the ground and ran in the direction where the goshawk fell.

Looking at Zhu Bajie's figure gradually moving away, Tang Seng sighed helplessly.

Ruan Jiu stared at the sky, and a faint light flashed in his dark eyes. She could see clearly just now that the black goshawk was falling directly vertically. There were no signs of arrows on its body. So there is only one explanation.

That eagle is going to fall by itself!

But why is that?

Ruan Jiu couldn't figure it out, but for some reason she always felt that something was wrong. It always feels like something bad is going to happen.

After another half a pillar of incense, Zhu Bajie, who went to check, still did not come back.

"Why did Bajie go for so long?" Tang Seng stared at the direction in which the goshawk fell, and asked suspiciously.

"Could it be that the second senior brother won't find it for a while?" replied Sha Seng.

Tang Seng spoke, but there was already a trace of worry on his face.

Seeing this, Sha Seng said, "Master, why don't I go over there and have a look." ”

Tang Seng was about to nod, but saw that the software on the side suddenly stopped Sha Seng.

"Senior brother, what will you do if you leave, Master?"

Sha Seng smiled: "Isn't this just a little way ahead? besides, there are still you here, and the master will be fine." ”

Ruan Jiu shook his head: "I always feel that there is something strange here, or let's wait for Senior Brother to come back." ”

Tang Seng glanced into the distance, and the worry about Bajie in his heart still prevailed over reason.

"Wujing is right, it's good that Xiao Jiu is here. Wujing, you go and see the Eight Precepts. If you find out that he is lazy again, the teacher will not spare him!"

"Yes, Master. ”

After speaking, the sand monk picked up the wand next to his luggage, turned around and walked towards the woods.

Ruan Jiu felt depressed for a while, thinking that his master was really the same as the legend. Now that Sha Seng and Zhu Bajie have left, there are only two people left here, him and himself. What if there is a monster raid at this time?

Thinking of this, Ruan Jiu couldn't help but raise his vigilance. Always keep an eye on the grass and trees around you. At the same time, I also secretly prayed in my heart, hoping that Brother Monkey could come back soon.
