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

After the meal, the king and queen still pulled Tang Shan to sit down and refused to leave.

She now feels like she is being blocked at the toilet door by a bunch of relatives, many of whom she cannot name, during Chinese New Year, asking her when she will find a partner.

"Your Majesty..." Tang Shan took a deep breath, "Although I am rich, I have to sell my daughter..."

"Hmm?" The king blew his beard and tilted his head in dissatisfaction. He said he was selling his daughter?

Tang Shan: Did the real issue hit you and broke your defense?

"Oh, I want to talk about marrying my daughter."

"Hmm~" The king nodded in satisfaction.

"When judging a person, you can't be so superficial as to just look at whether he has money or not. The most important thing is his character."

Tang Shan added silently in her heart: Although money is really important, she can't say that.

The queen smiled and said, "Everyone knows you are a holy monk from the Tang Dynasty in the East. Your character is naturally excellent."

"No, no, no!" Tang Shan stood up, opened her arms, and turned around. "Don't be fooled by my gentle, refined, well-spoken, handsome, and wealthy appearance. Actually, I'm a complete villain behind the scenes."

"Oh? What do you mean?" The king immediately became interested.

The holy monk praised by everyone actually revealed that he has a bad character?

Tang Shan described it vividly, gesturing and using her movements to help, "As for me, not only do I make my apprentices carry heavy luggage every day, I also make them do all the dirty and tiring work, and I don't even pay them. When there's danger, they're the first to rush forward. Just look at how bad a master like me must be!"

She was afraid that her words were not credible enough, so she quickly nudged Wukong beside her, blinking her eyes like a dragonfly spreading its wings, "You said so, my good disciple."

Wukong raised his confused golden eyes, "But, this is what we disciples should do."

The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara asked them to accompany him on the journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures, wasn't it to ensure Tang Monk's safety and to make him work for him, so that he could get gilded for free and then go back to continue being a Buddha?

The king and queen also nodded, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

How could people like them, who were born into a superior position, possibly understand what Tang Shan meant by exploitation?

Tang Shan: Damn it, you asked the wrong person!

She scurried over to Bajie, who was enjoying his dessert, and snatched the cake from his mouth. "Bajie, tell me, does Master usually make you do all the work? Have you been feeling dissatisfied for a long time?"

Since Kong Kong thinks it's natural, let alone Lao Sha and Xiao Bai, who listen to her thieves, the only solution now is to rely on Bajie to say some bad things about her to lower her damn charisma.

The confused Bajie subconsciously answered "Yes..."

Tang Shan's smile was about to burst out, and Sha Seng suddenly bumped into Bajie, "Second Brother, don't you understand what the master is saying?"

Second Brother, I can only save you this far. Please don't speak ill of the Master in front of others.

Bajie suddenly came to his senses. He raised his hand and slapped himself, then quickly said, "Yes, yes, of course Master is very kind to us."

After he swallowed the last bite of food, his eyes rolled around. The master must be testing his disciple's loyalty to him.

If I tell the truth and say that I have something against him now, I will definitely be punished later.

Tang Shan's expression instantly turned cold. "Bajie, your master taught you not to lie but to tell the truth. Are you sure this is what you really mean?"

I was screaming in my heart: You are my only hope, you must keep it to yourself!

Bajie: Are you criticizing me? You must think I'm not praising you enough.

"Although Master makes me do this and that every day, it is also to train my mental willpower and hone my strong body so that I can reach a higher level in the future."

The rhetoric that had fooled his apprentice finally came back to bite Tang Shan like a boomerang.
