Journey to the West: Monks do not tell lies, they only rob

Tang Shan took the documents and left the country of Zhuzi, heading west.

Bajie couldn't help but feel curious when he recalled the Queen's expression of delight as she flipped through a few pages of the book.

He carried his load and walked quickly to catch up with the White Dragon Horse, stretching his neck to ask.

"Master, what is written in the book you showed the Queen?"

Tang Shan, who was drowsy, immediately perked up. "Well, I can tell you have good taste. Then I will tell you about this secret book of palace fighting."

Bajie was stunned. Why did his master suddenly praise him?

I usually work so hard that I don't even hear any compliments, but now when someone asks me about gossip, I get compliments.

The master's heart is as deep as the sea.

The golden hoop suddenly interrupted: Are you cueing me?

"This book tells the story of love, hatred, open and covert struggles, and the twists and turns within the palace walls."

Tang Shan's spirit, which had just been strong for two seconds, instantly weakened again and she continued to fall into a dozing state.

Bajie, who has been waiting for the next part: Hmm?

Is this gone?

Master, it's such a thick book, could you at least say a few more words...

When Wukong and his companions heard Bajie and Tang Shan chatting, they thought that walking was boring and it would be nice to have something to do to pass the time.

But it was over in less than half a second after I got close to it.

The white dragon horse gently lifted Tang Shan on its back and said, "Master, please get up and tell me a story."

He felt embarrassed by the focused looks from his senior brothers.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard, so I'll just say a few more words."

The disciples were shocked and walked side by side, deliberately slowing down their pace.

Tang Shan: Adding two more sentences to one sentence makes it three sentences, no problem.

"The heroine is called Zhen Huan. She enters the palace for selection and is favored by the emperor. In the end, she fights through the palace and becomes the empress dowager."

Okay, that’s the whole article.

Disciples...

Master, you really don’t have anything to say.

Bajie picked out the key figure from Tang Shan's words: "What about the emperor?"

What kind of person is he? Why does he like the heroine? You can go on and on about these things.

Tang Shan: Okay, since you are my apprentice, I will satisfy you again.

"The emperor had a white moonlight who died in childbirth early on. After that, he kept collecting white moonlight peripherals. In the end, he was cuckolded by Wanwan Leiqing and killed."

Perfect, still three sentences.

Bajie: Why three more sentences?

He nudged Wukong and said, "Brother Monkey, it's your turn."

He can't always be the one asking the master, otherwise what if the master gets angry and yells at him?

Wukong also derived a third key figure from Tang Shan's words, "Master, Bai Yueguang is dead, so who did the emperor marry as queen in the end?"

Tang Shan: Wow, you guys are putting these dolls here.

"Bai Yueguang's younger sister, Hei Xinlian, was jealous of her sister's favor and plotted to kill her and her unborn child. Ultimately, the emperor compromised and made her his empress."

That’s great, three more sentences.

Sha Wujing: "This queen is so cruel, she even killed my sister. So what happened to her in the end?"

The disciples walked slower and slower, their shining eyes waiting for Tang Shan to continue.

"After becoming the empress, she took on a part-time job as the captain of the abortion squad. She first competed openly and covertly with the powerful minister's sister, the emperor's favorite concubine, and then engaged in a fierce battle of wits and courage with the heroine. In the end, she was locked up in a dark room by her own husband, the emperor."

Bajie said angrily, "She deserves it. But locking her up is too easy for her."

Not willing to be outdone, Bai Longma followed the example of his senior brothers and chose another role based on Tang Shan's words.

"How much doting is this favorite concubine? How does she compare to the Empress of the Golden Saint Palace?"

Tang Shan: "She was arrogant and loved to smell the Huanyi incense, which the emperor ostensibly favored but actually meant to end her family line. Under attack from the empress, the heroine, and her best friend, she eventually learned that the emperor was plotting against her and, infuriated, she threw herself against a wall and died."

Disciples...

Does the master have any obsession with these three sentences?

Bajie chased after him and asked, "The heroine cheated on the emperor, and her best friend didn't stop her?"

Isn’t this a serious crime that will result in the extermination of nine generations of the family?

Tang Shan wanted to laugh when she thought of this plot, "It doesn't matter, anyway, her best friend also cheated on the emperor and got pregnant with the imperial physician's child."

"Ah?" The disciples were shocked. There was also green grassland on the emperor's head.

As expected, if he can play well with the heroine, there must be some similarities...

Wukong: "Then this imperial physician is..."

Tang Shan sighed softly. If she had known earlier, she would have given them a few more books to read on their own.

But if they are addicted to reading novels, how can they travel to obtain the scriptures?

"The imperial physician originally liked the heroine, but was seduced by the drunken heroine's best friend and made the same mistake every man would make."

Tang Shan let out a long sigh. That was great. The disciples should not be able to find other characters to ask questions.

She was still too happy, as Sha Seng's angle was unusual and very tricky.

"What if they get pregnant if they do this?"

Bajie nodded, "Exactly. Did they end up having a child?"

Everyone looked at Tang Shan again.

Tang Shan: If she said yes, and then mentioned Sister Mei’s child, then they would definitely ask about the child the heroine had with another man, and then they would ask who the other man was...

This is an endless cycle.

Tang Shan closed her eyes, fell directly onto the horse's back, and pretended to sleep.

Disciples: Master, your acting skills have deteriorated. Besides, he doesn’t snore when he sleeps.

The days passed one by one, and most of the journey west had been traveled.

At noon that day, the master and his disciple saw a few thatched huts beside a stone bridge not far away, and they thought of going there to get some vegetarian food.

Under normal circumstances, Bajie would have knocked on the door himself in order to eat actively.

But today it is motionless.

Tang Shan was puzzled, "Bajie, why don't you go to the front and get some food and water?"

Aren’t you usually the first one to rush up and beg for food?

After having the experience of being mistaken for a demon when he knocked on the door several times before, Bajie has learned his lesson and is no longer willing to go in person.

"Master, please let Monkey go, or he'll accuse me of scaring others."

This time he really wasn't being lazy, he was telling the truth.

Even though he is thick-skinned and shameless, he would be hurt if he heard people say he is ugly too many times, okay?

What's even more outrageous is that after listening to it, Tang Shan actually nodded in agreement, "What you said makes sense."

Bajie: Master, you know how to seriously injure me.

Wukong: "I'll go if I want to."

As soon as he left, Lao Sha and Xiao Bai took on the responsibility of protecting their master.

Four girls were sitting in front of the thatched hut, concentrating on sewing something with their embroidery needles.

There were three young girls laughing and playing in the pavilion inside the house, creating a beautiful spring scene.

If the girl in front of me is not a fairy.
