Chapter 464: Poor as Hell

After the master and disciples left Gao Laozhuang, they headed towards the west again.

It's just that this mountain road is extremely difficult to walk. Tang Xuanzang couldn't ride the little white dragon, so he had to get down and walk with a few people.

In another dimension, this is a divine cave!

A wisp of spiritual consciousness floated outside the cave.

Ao Chang, who was practicing in the cave, raised his eyebrows and then blew out a wisp of immortal energy.

Not long after, a ray of his consciousness also came outside the cave.

"Ancestor Hongmeng, how are you doing lately?"

The old man in front of him was smiling and stroking his beard.

"Changsheng, the calamity is progressing steadily, but the demons seem to be accumulating power. If they are allowed to continue to develop, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses."

"In that case, let's weaken the power of the demons during the calamity. You and I can do it together."

Ancestor Hongmeng laughed.

"It's good, it's good..."

After a group of masters and disciples crossed the mountains, they soon came to an ancient ruin similar to one.

This is a town, but when a few people arrived in the town, it had only been two-quarters of an hour.

Who would have thought that the town would be deserted in broad daylight.

Sun Wukong was exploring the way ahead, waving the golden hoop with one hand and pointing to the ancient land in front of him.

"Master, where are we?"

Tang Xuanzang was slightly startled, then quickly got off the white dragon horse and walked towards the gate of the country step by step.

Only then did he realize that this was a small town and he did not need to redeem the customs.

"My disciples, we have been tired from traveling all the way. Let's rest here for one night. It won't be too late to start our journey again tomorrow."

Zhu Bajie quickly patted his big belly.

"Master, this is very good. I, an old pig, can hardly bear it any longer. My back is sore from all this journey. I can finally find a place to have a good rest."

After saying this, Zhu Bajie picked up his nine-tooth rake and ran towards the city with excitement on his face.

Sun Wukong chuckled,

"This idiot, he was shouting the loudest just now, but I didn't expect that he would have more strength at this time!"

Tang Xuanzang smiled lightly.

"Wukong, you have to be patient with your second junior brother. After all, he was a monster who dominated the mountains before. Now he has sincerely converted to Buddhism. We have to use love to influence him. Do you understand?"

What Sun Wukong fears most is what Tang Seng said.

He nodded quickly.

"Master, I know it."

Tang Seng nodded with satisfaction.

"That's good. If you and I cooperate with each other, master will naturally not need the tightening curse."

After Sun Wukong heard what Tang Seng said, he suddenly felt that his head was full of black lines.

This master is quite bad!

Obviously he is threatening himself.

Do I have a magic weapon in my hand that can subdue you? Although I don't use it here on weekdays, you have to be careful, because I really have this thing!

After several people entered the city, they discovered that the city was desolate.

Tang Xuanzang frowned slightly.

"Logically speaking, this city has fertile terrain and no major droughts or floods. Why is it so poor?"

Tang Xuanzang said this unexpectedly, and Sun Wukong touched the monkey's face.

"Master, we don't know. According to my opinion, we might as well go to the farmer and ask him first. Then we'll know, right?"

Tang Seng nodded slightly.

"You and Bajie go find a place to stay, but remember to talk easily and never conflict with others."

Sun Wukong chuckled, and then patted Zhu Bajie's pig ears.

"Fool, follow me. I, Old Sun, will take you to find a place to live."

One monkey and one pig came directly to the door of an ancient house, and then Zhu Bajie knocked on the door.

But there was no one inside.

And not only that, the two of them knocked several times in a row but no one opened the door.

It was Sun Wukong who had quick eyesight and quick hands. When he saw a farmer trying to enter the house, he quickly ran over and stopped him.

The farmer turned his head subconsciously.

But the moment he saw Sun Wukong, the expression on his face suddenly changed!

Subconsciously, he took a few steps back, pointing at Sun Wukong with trembling fingers.

"Monster! This is a monster!"

Sun Wukong waved quickly.

"Little old man, don't talk nonsense, I am not a monster!"

Zhu Bajie also ran over.

"Eldest brother, look at how scary this is!"

"Why is there a black pig spirit here?"

After saying this, the farmer rolled his eyes and fainted.

After Tang Xuanzang saw this scene, he sighed helplessly and trotted over quickly.

The farmer's wife also came out, and Tang Xuanzang quickly explained.

"Donor, please don't be afraid. These are my two disciples, the eldest disciple Sun Wukong and the second disciple Zhu Bajie. Although they are ugly, you don't have to be afraid."

"My disciples are all kind-hearted and will never harm you."

Tang Xuanzang's attitude was very good, and the peasant woman nodded slightly.

"So good..."

"It's just that a few of me are passing by here, and it's getting dark soon. Can we stay here for one night?"

The peasant woman thought about it for a moment, and she probably couldn't bear it.

"Okay, then come in."

Tang Xuanzang thanked him repeatedly.

After a few people entered the house, they discovered that the house could be described as bare-walled. It was extremely poor!

This old house is pretty good in the whole city.

The gatehouse is well built, but why is the life in the house so poor?

And after the peasant woman brought the food, Zhu Bajie complained.

"What is this? I have no appetite at first sight."

Zhu Bajie said this with an unhappy face.

But Tang Xuanzang frowned.

"Bajie, don't be rude. Monks should treat people well. Besides, we want to thank this donor for letting us enter the house to avoid wind and rain."

Zhu Bajie looked aggrieved.

Sun Wukong laughed.

"Fool! You are different now. Now you are a Buddhist, you can't have big fish and meat."

Zhu Bajie shook his head quickly, and the pig ears fanned the pig face with a snapping sound.

"Big Brother, I don't mean that. I know that Buddhism forbids killing, let alone eating meat, but there is not even a drop of oil in this meal."

"We are exhausted from running around all day, how can we bear it?"

Sun Wukong patted Zhu Bajie's big belly.

"How dare you say that? With your fat body, you can make it to the West!"

Zhu Bajie suddenly became shy.

"Isn't it that the days before were too good, and suddenly I am a little uncomfortable? Sorry, Master, I will try my best to adjust."

It must be said that Zhu Bajie's attitude is quite serious.

Tang Xuanzang nodded gently.

"This is a good thing, Bajie... The days of poverty are still ahead, you have to accept it slowly."
