The east turned white. A new day had arrived.
Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong packed their luggage and set off on the road to the west.
The conversation with Taibai Jinxing earlier allowed him to understand many secrets of Heavenly Court, it also allowed him to have a deeper understanding of the dangers ahead. He had some immature thoughts in his heart. He vaguely felt that there was something else going on in the Western Paradise, but he still had no clue as to what the specific inside story was.
The mountain was lush with grass and the air was fresh, but Tang Sanzang had no time to care. He was still digesting the harvest he had gained during this period of time. Unknowingly, he had already left the mountain forest and arrived at a plain. The road gradually became wider, and there were all kinds of crops planted by the roadside. It was obvious that there were villages nearby.
When they reached a fork in the road, two paths appeared. One was straight to the west, and the other was slightly southwest. They didn't know which path to choose.
Sun Wukong said,"Master, please wait a moment. I, Old Sun, will try to find out which way to go."”He rode the Somersault Cloud to scout the way.
Tang Sanzang was resting on a rock by the roadside.
Not long after, a figure appeared on the road to the west. The figure gradually approached. It was a woman who was extremely beautiful. She wore a plain white gown and an emerald green ribbon fluttered in the spring wind. The wild flowers in the fields on both sides seemed to be quite inferior in comparison.
This was a beauty that did not belong to the mortal world! Tang Sanzang clicked his tongue in praise. His eyes could not help but stare greedily at this woman. He no longer had the appearance of an eminent monk.
The woman walked to Tang Sanzang's side and stopped. Looking at Tang Sanzang's eyes, she frowned and made a silent rebuke.
Tang Sanzang immediately woke up and realized that he had indeed lost his composure. He stood up awkwardly, wanting to apologize but not knowing how to say it.
"Where did you come from, Elder?" the woman asked first.”Her voice was pleasant to the ears.
Tang Sanzang coughed and replied,""I came from the Tang of the East and went to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. I encountered a fork in the road here and didn't know which one to take. My disciple has gone to scout the way. This Penniless Monk is waiting here.”
When the woman heard Tang Sanzang reveal his identity, a trace of joy flashed across her face and she said,""So you're an eminent monk from the Great Tang. If you want to go to the Western Heaven, you might as well take this road to the west. My house is not far ahead. My mother believes in Buddha and will definitely treat you well.”
Tang Sanzang had sharp eyes and saw the change in the woman's expression. He felt that something was wrong and asked,""Female benefactor, do you know where this southwest road leads to?”
The woman replied," That road leads to a small village called Gaolaozhuang. Although we can walk through it, the road is difficult. It's better to take this road to the west. It's much smoother."”Then, she enthusiastically added," Elder, I'll bring you there.”
Tang Sanzang's doubts grew. He smiled faintly and refused,""Thank you for your kindness, female benefactor, but This Penniless Monk will wait for my disciple to return before making a decision. Furthermore, This Penniless Monk's intuition is guiding me that the southwest road is the best path.”
The woman looked sad and asked,""Elder, don't you trust me?”Her expression was bitter and heartbreaking. As long as it was a man, when he met such a gaze, more than 99% of them would be filled with pride to protect her and not let her be sad anymore.
The remaining 1% were either blind or perverted.
Tang Sanzang sighed. If he didn't know what kind of place Gao Laozhuang was, he would have left with her long ago. Even so, he had to make a big decision when he made the decision to refuse.
Tang Sanzang shook his head and could only expose him first."Female benefactor, this penniless monk doesn't care if you're an immortal or a demon. I won't ask why you're stopping this penniless monk from advancing. However, please leave quickly. Otherwise, when my disciple returns, it will be difficult for you to leave even if you want to. He is not a person who will take pity on women.”After saying that, she sighed and said," You're a beautiful woman. Why are you a thief?”
The woman revealed a surprised expression and softly said,"Master Sanzang, how did you see it?”
Tang Sanzang laughed." It's very simple. Your beauty is the only flaw. When I first saw you, I felt that you were definitely not from the mortal world."”At this point, his eyes revealed an intoxicated look.
The woman smiled bitterly." A beauty is indeed a burden. I didn't expect Elder's judgment to be so accurate." That's right, I'm not a mortal." With a wave of her hand, she returned to her original appearance and said elegantly," I am Chang'e of the Moon Palace. Do you know me, Elder?”
Tang Sanzang was shocked. The woman just now was already extremely beautiful. He didn't expect her to be even more beautiful now. Her otherworldly beauty surged out without any concealment, and the resentment in her eyes became even stronger. She was indeed a famous beauty.
Hearing Chang'e's question, Tang Sanzang came back to his senses and said softly,""Chang'e should regret stealing the spiritual medicine, the heart of the blue sea and blue sky every night! Fairy's reputation is like thunder in my ears. Today, I'm fated to meet you. I really didn't waste my life!”He deliberately addressed himself as " I " instead of " I " at the beginning, and his intentions began to show.
However, Chang'e didn't understand the meaning behind it. She repeated what Tang Sanzang had said,""Chang'e should regret stealing the spiritual medicine, the heart of the blue sea and blue sky every night! Master Sanzang is really good. Guanghan may be good, but who can relieve the pain…" Unintentionally, a gap appeared in her heart.
The thousands of years of loneliness had made her heart extremely depressed. Even with the jade rabbit accompanying her, it could only slightly reduce her loneliness. Wu Gang? He was just a servant. He only knew how to chop trees and did not say a word.
She had no way to vent her depression and could only bury it in the bottom of her heart. Tang Sanzang's poem, which was a pirated poem by Li Shangyin, happened to hit her bitterness, making her feelings uncontrollably vent for a moment.
Tang Sanzang looked at Chang'e and said casually,""Fairy Chang'e, if you're upset, you can say it. If you want to cry, I can lend you a shoulder.”
Chang'e glared at him with a reproachful look and revealed a smile that she hadn't seen for a long time, making Tang Sanzang's heart beat wildly.
Chang'e calmed down and said,""Master Sanzang, you are very different from what I imagined. I thought monks were all very solemn and solemn. I didn't expect you to be so humorous.”
"I am indeed very different from others," Tang Sanzang said with a smile."Fairy, you will know after a few more interactions." By the way, Fairy Chang'e, why did you stop me from going to Gao Lao Zhuang?”
Chang'e sighed." Master Sanzang, I didn't mean to lie to you. Although the road to the west is a little far, it can indeed lead to the Western Heaven." Chang'e is begging you, don't go through Gao Lao Zhuang, okay?”
When Tang Sanzang heard Chang'e's gentle plea, his heart softened and he almost agreed. Fortunately, he controlled himself in time and asked,"Fairy, may I know the reason?”
He had to go to Gao Laozhuang because his second disciple, Zhu Bajie, was waiting for him there.
