Chapter 926: Meeting with merchants at the Wilderness Road Tea Shop and Duanmu Huai’s encounter with

After passing Gaojiazhuang, this is Xiniu Hezhou. Along the way, Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong also had a great time traveling around the mountains and slaying demons.

Of course, for Duanmuhuai...

"That Tathagata is really talking nonsense and disturbing people's peace."

"Why did Master say this?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's complaint, Sun Wukong also asked out of curiosity. Following Duanmu Huai, he had already known that this man was not a devout follower of Buddha at all.

No, let alone piety, this monk has nothing to do with the monk at all. Not only does he love drinking and eating meat, he also has no compassionate heart for a monk. Every time he goes to a fairy world, he will never kill all the monsters inside. Give up. To use Duanmu Huai's words, "It is the Buddha's business to forgive them, and my duty is to send them to see the Buddha."

Well, as far as Sun Wukong is concerned, those monsters will simply end up in disarray under the power of Duanmu Huai. They can't even enter the hell, and it's impossible to see the Buddha.

However, Sun Wukong himself is not an honest person. When the two of them are put together, they have a kind of like-minded feeling - even sometimes Sun Wukong feels that his master is more ruthless than him. He thinks that what he was most proud of back then was making trouble. Tiangong, if this person comes up, I'm afraid the Tiangong will be demolished...

"You know, when I first learned the scriptures, the Tathagata once said clearly in front of everyone: I have appeared in the four major states, and the good and evil of all living beings are different from each other. Those who conquer the divine continent in the east should respect the heaven and the earth. The heart will be refreshed and the air will be calm; the giant in the north will be victorious. Although people from Luzhou like to have children, they only live hand to mouth and have a clumsy temperament. They don’t practice much. I, people from Xiniu and Hezhou, are not greedy and do not kill, and nourish their energy and potential. Although they are supremely true, everyone has a long life; but the Southern Gift Department People in China are greedy for sexual pleasure and happy for misfortunes, and they kill more and fight more. It is the so-called murderous place of words, a sea of ​​right and wrong... Huh, if you ask me, it's all bullshit!"

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai also snorted and dismissed it.

What Tathagata said was very simple. To put it simply, he was a beacon of freedom in Hezhou, Xiniu where he was located, where no one would steal or rob, and no one would pick up items on the road and never close their doors at night. However, the Tang Dynasty was an evil dictatorship characterized by greed for sexual pleasure and misfortune, and many killings and strife. So I have three volumes of the Scripture of the Lord of Freedom. You have to come and get it, and then go back and let your Tang Dynasty become a beacon of freedom like me.

The results of it?

"Since we entered Xiniu Hezhou on horseback, there have been monsters every day. I have never encountered so many monsters in the Tang Dynasty!"

At this point, Duanmuhuai became furious and cursed. This is what you, the Tathagata, say about not being greedy and not killing, nourishing energy and potential, ensuring longevity for everyone, and being the master of freedom, right?

Everyone has a gun, and shooting freely is the master, right?

You, like you, Xiniu Hezhou, have two monsters that go around catching and eating people for three days, and you want me to learn from your silly and realistic scriptures? If I don’t kill you to go to Lingshan, demolish the hall like you idiot, and chop off the head of Buddha like you, I will write your name upside down!

Before Duanmu Huai came out of confinement and went to Xiniu Hezhou, he only encountered two or three monsters and kittens. But after entering Xiniu Hezhou, the monsters were flying in the sky and crawling everywhere on the ground. Duanmu Huai even killed them. annoyed!

"When I get to the West, I will kick the bald donkey's lotus seat, pull it and ask it, you idiot from Xiniu Hezhou, do you still want me to learn from the Tang Dynasty? In the prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty, when all the nations came to court, I didn't pick up things on the road, and I never closed my house at night. . You Xiniu Hezhou is full of monsters and ghosts, running rampant, killing people and setting fires, doing all kinds of evil. What kind of post bar thing is this, and you want us to learn it? What a joke!"

That is to say, distance brings beauty. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was fooled by Guanyin. It was just that the Tang Dynasty was too far from Xiniu Hezhou. In this era, there were no live broadcasts on the Internet or TIKTOK. Hearing Guanyin boast so awesomely, he was also fooled. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was confused and suspicious of life, so he asked Tang Monk to get the Western Scripture.

After all, what they say is true, so there is nothing wrong with learning from advanced foreign experience.

What if you want the other party to talk nonsense?

It's just a loss of one or two people, so what's the loss?

"What Master said is not unreasonable..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Sun Wukong was also convinced. It used to be a ruthless child that caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace, but when Sun Wukong was in the mortal world, he didn't do too many evil things. Even if they went to the underworld to change the roster, went to the Dragon Palace to grab a stick, and then went up to the Heavenly Palace to play tricks, they were not like the monsters in Hezhou, Xiniu. They were really fierce in their folk customs, shouting and killing at every turn. It is commonplace to eat people and so on. Even he, the Monkey King, has never seen monsters in other places so rampant.

So Sun Wukong also began to wonder, you said that the Buddha was so compassionate, why didn't he go to cross so many monsters in his own realm, but he had to go to the Heavenly Palace to cause trouble for me? Look at this place where you see a little devil taking three steps and a big monster taking five steps. How can you pretend that even the Buddha and Bodhisattva didn't see you? Could it be that, as Master said, everyone is a blind man playing interstellar?

My old grandson just stole a peach, held a banquet, beat up hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals, and didn't even mention killing people or setting fires.

Could it be that the old bald donkey really had something on his mind?

While they were talking, a tea shop appeared in front of them. The two of them were thirsty and tired after walking all the way, so they dismounted and went to the tea shop to order tea and rest for a while.

While Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong were having tea, they saw a few businessmen sitting next to them, looking here frequently. After a while, one of them stood up, walked to Duanmuhuai, and made a long bow.

"May I ask if you two are the holy monks who went to the West to obtain scriptures and slayed demons along the way?"

"Oh? How did you know?"

"Where did the holy monk come from?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, the businessman suddenly smiled and said.

"The names of the two of you have spread throughout Xiniu Hezhou. It is said that the two hate evil and kill demons along the way. No matter how powerful the ghosts and fairies are, they will be captured by the two. And one of you is as burly as a mountain, with an angry look, and the other A furry-faced thunder god with a stooped body, and paired with a divine white horse, it’s hard to admit his mistake.”

"So what's going on?"

Duanmu Huai didn't reply, he just asked. You see, this is the benefit of having a good reputation. Unlike Tang Seng, that idiot, who has a good skin but is stupid and doesn't even have any skills. You are still a monk, don't you know that monks rely on their reputation to cheat money and sex?

"It's like this. Our group is planning to go to Baoxiang Kingdom. I heard that the road has been uneven recently, and there are often demons and ghosts coming and going. If the two holy monks don't mind, can we go together..."

"It doesn't matter."

Duanmu Huai didn't care too much. He had encountered similar things several times after entering Xiniu Hezhou. They were either farmers going out or businessmen selling goods. More importantly, if you follow them, you can actually encounter monsters.

This is also the reason why Duanmu Huai and others have become more and more famous along the way. When those people arrived safely, they would naturally spread the word, and people's words could be heard faster than a phone call. So Duanmu Huai hasn't reached Xitian yet. You see, this famous name has already spread throughout Xiniu Hezhou.

After Duanmuhuai agreed, the old businessman was overjoyed, thanked him again, and then turned and left.

After both parties finished having tea, they rested for a while and then hit the road again. The old merchant also introduced their group to Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong. In addition to the old merchant, there was also a young master of the merchant and a group of young merchants. According to the old merchant, these boys were the first Once I came out, I was going to Baoxiang Country to pick up the goods and then come back. Everyone was in high spirits - well, it's understandable. Young people come out to have fun. In this era, there are no computers, TVs, dance halls, or KTVs. They go out for an outing. It's quite a good pastime.

Hearing that the old businessman invited two monks to go with him, the young men were obviously a little unhappy. However, after seeing Duanmu Huai, they all fell into silence. They were not like the rogues in the book who were blind and ignorant—— - Nonsense, with a height of two and a half meters and a fist as big as a purple gold bowl, anyone who sees him will know that he is a mountain.

Unless it's a blind man.

This is also the reason why Duanmu Huai has never minded this kind of thing. After all, as soon as he stopped there, any normal person would know that this big man is not easy to mess with. It's not like those protagonists who pretend to be pigs and eat tigers. They are looked down upon by others and don't take it seriously. They wait until the crisis comes and then rebel and kill him - Duanmu Huai has no such intention. He doesn't hold grudges and will avenge them on the same day. .

But just when they were about to go on their way, they saw the young master walking out, accompanied by a woman. Although she couldn't be said to be like a fish, she was quite pretty. Seeing this woman, the old businessman was stunned.

"Master, what are you doing?"

"Hello, my lord."

When she saw the old businessman, the woman also bowed.

"My daughter's name is Cui. She was originally from Benyang. My parents were greedy for money and sold me to a wealthy family to be their concubine. But the eldest wife of that family was jealous and kept beating, scolding and humiliating me. She couldn't bear it anymore, so she took care of herself. I want to go to my relatives in Baoxiang Kingdom, but I am a weak woman, single, and the mountain road is dangerous. I happened to meet the young master, who is willing to take me for a ride..."

"this………………"

Hearing the woman's words, the old businessman frowned, while the young master stared at him.

"How's it going? Dad, this woman is really pitiful. She happens to be on the same road as us. It would be better if we go together so that we can take care of her."

"Ugh..."

The old merchant here was silent, but over there Sun Wukong took out the golden cudgel and was about to hit the woman, but Duanmu Huai, with his quick eyes and quick hands, caught her.

"Master, what are you trying to stop me from doing? That's a monster!"

"Of course I know she's a monster."

Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman. Even without his piercing eyes, he could still smell the strong smell of blood on the woman's body.

This thing...well, could it be the White Bone Demon?

"This guy is difficult to deal with. Don't rush to take action now. I'll wait for my teacher to think of a way to deal with her."

Of course Duanmu Huai will not let this guy go, but he also knows that if it is a White Bone Demon, this guy is good at disguising, and if he wants to really deal with her, he has to find a reason.

Otherwise, just look at these idiot brats, they might have been fascinated by the Bone Demon a long time ago.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai also made a decision in his heart.

"When they get on the road, we'll follow them to see what the monster plans to do."
