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

Wukong pushed Bajie away impatiently, "You'd better not mess with me, idiot."

"Hey, Monkey Brother, don't move," Bajie immediately came closer, "Let me count how many monkey hairs you have."

This is a matter of life and death for them, so we cannot be careless.

Wukong...

After saying this, Taibai Jinxing planned to call it a day and return to heaven.

Tang Shan stood in front of him and said, "According to the old man, the road ahead must be very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may lose your life."

Taibai Jinxing nodded and said, "That's what I meant. Otherwise, why do you think I've been waiting for you to come?"

After receiving a positive response from Taibai Jinxing, Tang Shan suddenly turned around and mounted the horse.

"Disciples, since the situation ahead is dangerous, let's go home early."

As she spoke, she turned around and walked back the way she came.

Bajie didn't expect the surprise to come so soon. In the past, his master would ignore his advice and rush forward even when faced with danger.

Today he actually offered to stay.

Hehe, this can’t be said to be the old pig being afraid of death.

He quickly gulped down the remaining soup, turned off the engine and packed his luggage.

Taibai Jinxing was confused. No, why not go?

If you don't go, who will go to obtain the scriptures?

Now it was his turn to stop Tang Shan, "Are you not going to go over now?"

Tang Shan smiled, "Didn't you say it was dangerous up ahead? Of course, safety comes first."

Wukong was silent, his master must have something in mind.

"It's dangerous, but it's eight hundred miles long. You'll have to go around a lot!"

If Tang Seng had not gone to Lion Camel Ridge, he would have missed this difficulty.

No, we absolutely cannot let them go.

"You specifically said it was so dangerous, weren't you just trying to kindly dissuade us from going?"

Tang Shan smiled and said, "I have to thank you for that. If you hadn't told me, we would have gone there without knowing what was going on. It would have been so dangerous."

Bajie walked up to him with his load on his shoulder, smiling, "I didn't expect you to be such a nice person. I was a little louder than usual just now."

Boom——

Taibai Jinxing took a step back in a daze. What...what? This is not what I meant!

I want them to be mentally prepared in advance so that they can be on guard.

When did I tell them not to go?

If such a big blame is put on us and the higher-ups find out, it will be disastrous.

Taibai Jinxing stubbornly stood in front of the horse and said, "As the saying goes, only those who endure hardships can become the best. No matter how difficult or tiring it is, we must be brave and go for it, right?"

Tang Shan laughed out loud, "Old man, you are forcing yourself to endure hardship. People who like to endure hardships will have to endure hardships in the future."

Bajie: "I thought you were a good guy just now, but you want us to go into danger and then just walk away."

Sha Seng also felt that there was something wrong with the old man.

"You were the one who said it was dangerous, and you were the one who asked us to go. So you're planning to push us to our deaths, aren't you?"

Logically, this is true, but that is not Taibai Jinxing’s starting point!

He is now at a loss for words and has shot himself in the foot.

He had no choice but to transform back into his true form.

Tang Shan had never seen Taibai Jinxing before, and when she suddenly saw an old man with white hair and white clothes holding a whisk appear in front of her, she couldn't help but be amazed.

"Taibai Jinxing, it turns out to be you!"

Wukong and Bajie came over, and the three of them were familiar with each other.

Wukong even tugged at his white beard playfully, "You, why don't you just come out and speak for yourself? Why do you have to transform into an old mortal man?"

Bajie: "He must be too bored. Unlike us, we have to work in the wind and rain every day."

Taibai Jinxing: Just reminding you is blatant cheating. You have to deceive yourself a little and pretend.

"Great Sage, Marshal Tianpeng, although the road ahead is dangerous, we must pass it."

He explained to Master Tang Shan and his apprentice with a smile, "Please don't make things difficult for me, otherwise I won't be able to complete my mission."

Tang Shan didn't really plan to look back. She just wanted to find out who the person in front of her was.

"Master Xing, right?" Tang Shan dismounted. "It's fine to go, but since it's so dangerous, it wouldn't be unreasonable for us to ask you for some equipment in advance, right?"

She spread out her palms with a smile.

"This..." Taibai Jinxing was dumbfounded. He only had a whisk with him, so where did the equipment come from?

Even if he had it, he would definitely not be able to defeat the three from Lion Camel Ridge.

He looked at his two acquaintances, Wukong and Bajie, with embarrassment, asking for help with his eyes if they could drag your master away.

Wukong and Bajie pretended not to see anything, looking at the sky, the ground, and their toes, but not at him.

How dare they defy the Master's words? Good luck to you, old man.

So, Taibai Jinxing tentatively placed the only whisk in Tang Shan's hand.

"Is this...okay?"

He spoke without any confidence, and it seemed that he also knew that his whisk was useless.

"Alas~" Tang Shan gently placed the whisk back into Taibai Jinxing's hand, "How could I take away something that an elderly man cherishes."

What if you lose your balance while riding the cloud without your whisk and get bumped into something? Who will be responsible?

The main thing is that the whisk is useless!

"That's good, that's good. I'll go first."

Taibai Jinxing breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it would be safer to leave quickly.

After all, Tang Seng and his disciples don’t have a very good reputation.

Tang Shan interrupted him, "Master Xing, do you like gold?"

"Ah? Gold...gold?" Taibai Jinxing was puzzled as to why the topic suddenly changed so much.

"I like it" he was about to blurt out.

After all, gold is a symbol of orthodoxy, light, and imperial power. Even the pillars of the Lingxiao Palace are carved with golden dragons.

But he suddenly remembered that his old friend in heaven advised him not to mention the word "gold" in front of Tang Seng, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Although I don’t know why Tang Seng asked me this, I might as well just answer that I don’t like it, so there is no need to continue discussing this topic.

Taibai Jinxing made up his mind and said decisively, "I don't like it."

Tang Shan smiled happily, "That's great. I just saw a bag dropped at your feet. I don't know if it was a purse, but there was a golden glow inside."

"Ah? Where?" Taibai Jinxing hurriedly reached out and touched his waist, then lowered his head to check the things at his feet.

But, there is nothing.

Where's his wallet?

Tang Shan smiled and consoled him, "Since you don't like gold, I'll be more loyal and help you take it away."

She patted her cloth bag proudly and said, "No need to thank me."

"No, hey, don't leave yet——"
