The Monkey King

In the cave, Qingxin wrote silently with a pen in hand.

Everyone else watched silently as time passed slowly.

In her life, she has never been questioned like this. It's ridiculous to ask her to prove her identity! The more I wrote, the angrier I became, and by the end, my face seemed a little unsightly.

After writing for half an hour, she silently wrote out all the thousand-word formulas.

Hastily rolling up the written formula, she raised her hand and threw it towards Cao Xiaohua, who was firmly caught by Cao Xiaohua.

After stroking her words, Cao Xiaohua looked at it carefully by the firelight.

Xiao Qi on the side stretched his head to watch.

After a while, Xiao Qi whispered: "It doesn't seem right. It seems like she is really a fake."

"No, hers is the right one." Cao Xiaohua shook her head, rolled up the formula, and said calmly: "The formula given to us by Our Lady has been modified several times. I have seen the original version when I was managing the warehouse. , this is the most original practice method of Xianyue Sanxing Cave."

Qingxin blinked her eyes, raised her head and said, "Now that it's confirmed to be true, can we release the restriction?"

"No." Cao Xiaohua replied without thinking.

"Why not!" Qingxin suddenly became furious and angrily shouted: "Since everything is right, what do you want me to prove?"

Cao Xiaohua and Qingxin looked at each other and smiled lightly. That smile falling into Qing Xin's eyes was like adding fuel to the fire.

At this moment, Qingxin was going crazy. It's a pity that I am trapped in a ban and my meat is on the chopping board. She couldn't help but clenched her fists.

After just looking at each other for a while, Cao Xiaohua said softly: "I believe you are really the Great Sage's junior sister. If not, at least you should be his junior nephew. Otherwise, there shouldn't be such a complete formula. This point , you have successfully proved it. However, there is no guarantee that you are not the traitor of Xianyue Sanxing Cave. So... what you have to prove next is that you have no malicious intentions. Or, you two put this on."

As she spoke, Cao Xiaohua took something from the hands of the little demon beside her and threw it towards the two of them from a distance. A "ding-dong" sound fell in front of the two of them.

When you can clearly see what the other party throws at you. Suddenly he became furious and looked at Cao Xiaohua in astonishment.

These are two pairs of Pipa locks, which penetrate the Pipa bone and can temporarily lock the cultivation level. Does the other party want them to abandon their cultivation and treat them directly as prisoners?

The corners of Qingxin's mouth twitched slightly, and her eyes were full of blazing flames.

She has never been humiliated like this in all her life!

However. Cao Xiaohua didn't seem to notice it, but looked at her quietly, smiling peacefully.

"Do you have a magic weapon for close combat?" A voice sounded in Nezha's mind.

"You are covered in melee weapons, what are you doing?"

"Kill out!"

"What?"

Before Nezha could react, a golden leather whip flew out from Qing Xin's sleeve like a long snake and was held firmly in his hand.

Staring at Cao Xiaohua angrily, Qingxin scolded: "Unlock the restriction, otherwise you will have a hard time when I get out!"

Cao Xiaohua and the other little demons took a step back, but they all adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

Nezha leaned slightly towards Qingxin. He whispered: "Hey... didn't you say this restriction is very powerful? Why..."

"It's probably difficult to escape unscathed. However, even if you can't escape unscathed, it's still better than being treated as a prisoner!"

After saying that, Qingxin gritted his teeth, raised the whip in his hand and whipped around.

The golden leather whip instantly grew to a hundred feet long, rolling against the wall of the underground cave like a slender snake.

In an instant, the entire restriction was activated.

Terrifying roars came from all directions. Everything seemed to be shaking, and fine dust fell from the ceiling.

Dark red runes spread quickly from several points on the rock wall, and in just an instant, every stone was covered. The dark red light turned the entire underground cave into the color of blood.

In an instant, all kinds of attacks came from all directions.

There is the roar of tens of millions of troops, shocking the mind; there are dark red shields that are difficult to identify in this space with the naked eye, pressing from all directions, dividing the entire space like a maze; there are blue lightnings flashing across these shields It bounces back and forth, it's weird and unpredictable... even stone thorns are protruding from the ground!

Qingxin watched helplessly as the whip in her hand was cut into dozens of pieces by the wind blade flying in the air.

Nezha on the side was already dumbfounded.

Here, there are at least twenty kinds of mechanism arrays interacting with each other, and each one is extremely powerful. If he is not careful, he has no doubt that he will be torn into pieces.

He has seen a lot of magic circles, but except for the time when Monkey broke into Huaguo Mountain on the eve of his wedding, he really doesn't do much research on weekdays. And that time, he only broke through the periphery, and was still far away from the core area of ​​Huaguo Mountain.

At this moment, he couldn't help but nervously tighten the fire-tip spear in his hand.

"It's not too late to put it on now. If you really don't have any ill intentions, there is no need to be afraid." Cao Xiaohua lowered her head and glanced at the two pairs of Pipa locks on the ground. The Pipa locks were immediately pushed in front of the two of them.

At this time, although the mechanism array was powerful, it was only a deterrent and did not directly endanger the lives of the two people.

Qingxin lowered her head and glanced at the two pairs of pipa locks that exuded silver light, her eyes widened, and her teeth were chattering slightly with anger.

"You won't know until you fight!"

With a wave of her hand, dozens of silver lights escaped from her sleeves and flew towards Cao Xiaohua. In the blink of an eye, they were all blocked by the shield built by the ban.

"The negotiation broke down." With just a faint sentence, Cao Xiaohua and the monsters took a few steps back and disappeared into the dark cave behind them.

Suddenly, all the attacks flew towards the two of them!

…

At this time, Xuanzang was already busy in a corner of Hezhou, Xiniu, on the other side of the world.

have to say. In such a remote, non-Buddhist village, monks are not welcome. But doctors are extremely popular, especially doctors like Xuanzang who do not accept medical fees but also subsidize medicinal materials.

Word spread. Soon, many villagers brought patients at home for consultation. For a while, the scene was very lively, and Xuanzang was even more busy.

Everyone else stood aside and watched from a distance.

In a small village, it didn't take long for Xuanzang to see all the patients who could be diagnosed and treated. Because there is no consultation fee. The villagers spontaneously gave alms. Suddenly the problem of alms was solved, and the problem of staying overnight was naturally solved as well.

Originally, the monkey thought that Xuanzang would be fine after helping people with the disease. Unexpectedly, before the diagnosis was over, Xuanzang started a new business - writing letters.

This remote village is not only short of doctors, but also of literate people. The nearest private school here has to climb dozens of miles of mountain roads. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Xuanzang is also responsible for delivering letters.

There is a shortage of literate people in this village. Other villages are also lacking. Occasionally, there are one or two married women, a son-in-law, or a relative from other places. Even if you find a ghostwriter to write a letter home, you may not be able to find a literate person to read it when you send it to them.

Xuanzang's place is good, it's a one-stop service. He has to go west anyway, so he ghostwrites the letter and sends it there, and then helps him read it.

Just tossing and turning. After working for a long time, until late at night, Xuanzang finished everything and earned enough food for the next few months.

In the monkey's dream, he also thought that one day he would accompany a monk to help a bunch of villagers see doctors and write letters in a small village, and eventually work as a part-time postman. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Perhaps, this is the way to Purdue. Purdue, can be big. It can also be very small, as small as something as small as sesame and mung beans.

After finally settling down in a small hut, Xuanzang lit an oil lamp and used the light to carefully plan the next route in order to deliver all the letters to their destinations.

The monkey couldn't stand it anymore, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Give me all the letters and ask Ao Lie to deliver them. They will all be delivered tonight. You should go to bed early."

Xuanzang looked up at the monkey, shook his head and said, "This is also part of spiritual practice."

Lowering his head, he continued to carefully study the map in his hand.

The monkey smiled helplessly and said: "What kind of practice is this?"

"This is called joining the world." Xuanzang sighed softly: "The poor monk is a monk. His six roots are pure, his body has nothing to grow, and he does not make a living. Along the way, all the money he brought from Jinshan Temple has been spent. Well, the next journey will naturally rely on alms. But if the poor monk does nothing and does not join the world, where can the fate come from? Every drought and flood in the Tang Dynasty caused hunger and death all over the land, and many people died. If the poor monk had nothing, Dharma door may be just one of them."

"Can we still starve you to death?"

"What if you weren't there?" Xuanzang said softly: "The poor monk is just the first one to understand the path to universal salvation. There will be thousands more in the future. Are you also by their side?"

After a moment of silence, Xuanzang said: "So, unless it involves gods, Buddhas and monsters, which are beyond human control, the rest must be done by the poor monk himself and cannot rely on you. Along the way, people in many places do not believe in Buddhism. , think that monks are just deceivers, and if the poor monks can do some practical things, maybe they can change their minds."

It seems that being a monk, especially a practicing monk, requires you to have all kinds of martial arts skills.

Just look at it this way, if the world was without these demons, ghosts, gods, and Western Buddhas, the monkey would really believe that the monk in front of him could walk from the Eastern Land to Daleiyin Temple alone.

No matter what, he is much stronger than his original self. Hunger, disease, and even bandits blocking the road, it seems that nothing in this world can stop Xuanzang from fulfilling his ideals.

After spreading his hands, the monkey stopped asking.

…

Huaguoshan, starry night.

With a loud noise, a huge hole opened in the ground. In the smoke and dust that filled the sky, two figures quickly sprang out and landed on the cliff in the distance.

Qingxin stumbled and almost fell down.

At this moment, many of her clothes were damaged, her left shoulder was injured, and her clothes were stained red with blood. The whole image was in a mess.

Holding her chest, she paused slightly, a mouthful of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and her face was extremely pale.

Seeing this, Nezha hurriedly went to help him, but she reached out to stop him.

In comparison, Nezha is a warrior in heaven who has been fighting all year round. Although he does not have as many magic weapons as Qingxin and is not familiar with various formations, he is fortunate to have rich combat experience and quick reactions. At this moment, he seems to be just suffering. He suffered some minor injuries, but his condition is much better than that of Qingxin.

"Are you okay?"

Qingxin slowly shook her head, her eyes closed tightly, and it took a while to recover.

"I'm going to kill them!"

With that said, Nezha turned around and wanted to fly towards the gap again. Qingxin quickly stretched out her hand to hold him.

"Are you...stupid? You and I don't know how complicated the passage down here is. Maybe there's more than one restriction...Besides, they are more familiar with us. If you want to hide, you won't be able to find it no matter what. "Yes." Qingxin frowned tightly, with a look of pain on her face, and sighed softly: "Don't... don't cause trouble."

Nezha gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, turned around and asked, "Then what should we do now? You are so injured, how about we go back first?"

Qingxin shook her head and said, "It's okay, you help me protect the law, and I'll just take care of it myself."

With that said, Qingxin sat down cross-legged, took out two pills, drank them, closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing.

Nezha also took out a few pills and drank them, then stood on guard with a fire-tipped spear.

Among the dark rocks in the distance, Cao Xiaohua looked at the two people from a distance, her brows slightly furrowed.

"It's like this, and they still won't leave?"

"Maybe I shouldn't have let them go just now." Xiao Qi said softly.

"Nezha is from the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm. Our restrictions can only seriously injure him but cannot kill him. On the one hand, he is a Taoist, and on the other hand, he has many magic weapons. As for Qingxin... his experience is still shallow. Although it is still unclear what her motives are, there is no doubt that she is a disciple of Patriarch Subhuti. If she really dies here, it will be difficult for you and me to explain to the Great Sage when he asks."

"Then what to do next? Are you going to keep staring at them like this?"

Cao Xiaohua was silent for a moment and then said: "Go to the East China Sea Dragon Palace and ask the fourth princess if Patriarch Subhuti really has an eleventh disciple. If so, what is the eleventh disciple who has entered the palace? What is the name of the disciple? Is it a boy or a girl? What are the characteristics of his appearance? By the way, let me know the current situation of the Great Sage, and... what is the current relationship between the Great Sage and Nantianmen? Is it possible that Nantianmen will send someone to take action against us? .”

"OK."

Not long after, Qingxin completely dissolved the swallowed pill, and the injury was quickly brought under control, but her physical strength had not yet recovered. I had no choice but to lie down and take a nap. But there is something on my mind, and I can't sleep no matter what.

Nezha vaguely heard Qing Xin's sleepy mumbling.

"These two damn old men... actually didn't come out to help me this time..." (To be continued ~^~)
