A passing traveler through the heavens
Chapter 17 Life Masters Tang Sanzang and Wang Tianba
Located on a dreamlike island in the Maldives, in a villa hotel, Ji Lin comfortably wore a pair of cool sunglasses and leisurely lay on a comfortable beach chair.
After that incident where he restrained Sun Wukong, Ji Lin happily embarked on a grand global trip with He Lan, which also allowed him to enjoy a long vacation.
Ji Lin's eyes sparkled with curiosity as he watched with great interest He Lan, dressed in a sexy swimsuit, swimming freely in the shimmering pool like a graceful mermaid.
At this moment, the "princess" that was casually placed aside was making crisp sounds like an oblivious little fellow.
"Warning, warning, Wang Tianba is looking for the Flying Man..." The voice reached Ji Lin's ears. He was slightly taken aback, then a playful look flashed in his eyes. Looking at the illusory screen in front of him, he couldn't help but chuckle softly.
In the image, two deep wounds are clearly visible on either side of Wang Tianba's head. The marks look extremely gruesome, as if they were crushed by a heavy door, making one feel the tragic scene at the time.
"Lan'er, you continue swimming slowly. I have something to take care of here, I'll be right back," Ji Lin said softly.
Before He Lan could give any response, his figure began to shift like a ghost, transforming into a string of mysterious numbers in the blink of an eye, slowly dissipating into the air and heading in an unknown direction.
Meanwhile, in another faraway place, Wang Tianba waited anxiously, and finally, he met Lu Xiaoqian, whom he had been longing for.
However, when he saw that Lu Xiaoqian was accompanied by Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, who were already quite drunk, an indescribable despair welled up in his heart.
Wang Tianba sighed helplessly, his sigh filled with exhaustion and disappointment. He then quickly informed You of the hiding place they had carefully concealed.
Lu Xiaoqian took out a number key and threw it into the distance to check You Suowei and the others' movements. After steeling himself and devising a strategy, he then told Wang Tianba to wait where he was and had Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong provide support at the gate.
Without waiting for the two to hear clearly, he stealthily slipped inside.
Xiaoqian had just infiltrated and was about to smash a stool at the device that was copying the phone when Huangmei stopped her...
In the ensuing struggle, Xiao Qian pushed Huang Mei towards the electrical box, instantly rendering him unable to fight. You Suowei, on the other hand, hurriedly packed his things, preparing to escape.
Just then, Ji Lin arrived and helped You Suowei pack his things.
Xiao Qian wanted to chase after them but was held back by Huang Mei and was also electrocuted. The drunken Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie also stumbled in through the gate.
You Suowei had already finished preparing, and after Huang Mei arrived, the group traveled through time to the Tianjin Concession in 1904.
Back in the old Tianjin concession area, You Suowei and his group prepared to replicate Sha Niu here. Afterwards, You Suowei and Ji Lin sat on the sofa and started talking.
"Ji Lin, what brings you here?"
“Brother Wei, I was traveling abroad with He Lan when the princess alerted me, saying that Wang Tianba had contacted Lu Xiaoqian and the others. So I came over to help you out.” You Suowei patted Ji Lin on the shoulder and smiled gratefully.
...One month later in the Tianjin Concession.
Silly Girl finally succeeded in copying the disc, and thanks to Ji Lin's help in looking after the company, You Suowei and Huang Mei were able to stay in their hiding place without any worries. Therefore, Dongzi and Sun Feiyan didn't find an opportunity to steal the disc.
As everyone packed up their things, You Suowei fell into deep thought, preparing to "use Tang Sanzang to command Pigsy and Monkey King".
You Suowei planned to take Ji Lin with him and then have Huang Mei and the others return to the modern world to wait, but Ji Lin's next words greatly disappointed You Suowei.
“Brother, I am a martial artist. After obtaining the princess, I thought about going back to the past to cultivate immortality, but in the time tunnel, I can only enter the period from modern times onwards; I can't enter the others.”
"So, I suspect there was a version of me in the past, and this time you may have to fight Lu Xiaoqian one-on-one."
Although You Suowei was somewhat disappointed, he still asked Ji Lin to take Huang Mei and the others back to the modern world first. Even if they faced Lu Xiaoqian, You Suowei was still confident of winning.
Only five seconds had passed since Ji Lin and the others returned to the modern world. After settling Huang Mei and the others in, they went to find He Lan.
Meanwhile, Lu Xiaoqian returned to his residence in disappointment, accompanied by two drunkards.
Wang Tianba had hoped to seek protection from Xiao Qian, but he never expected that the two helpers he had invited would be so unreliable, and he immediately regretted his decision.
But despite the complaints, Wang Tianba, now acting as "Wang? Philosopher? Zhuge? Tianba" in Xiao Qian's camp, began to analyze the reasons for their defeat and offer suggestions...
"The Yellow-Eyebrowed King may not be as strong as Pigsy or Monkey King, but he's obedient. He does whatever Boss You tells him to do. Look at your two darlings, how much face they've shown and how much they've made a fool of themselves."
"Xiao Qian, there's a skill to asking for help. Do you know what Sun Wukong did most on his journey to the West? He asked for help."
Upon hearing Wang Tianba's words, Lu Xiaoqian immediately retorted.
"Nonsense, the most important thing is that they are very skilled."
"Sigh, it's true that he's very capable, and it's also true that he asked for help. If you don't believe me, go read Journey to the West..."
"Xiao Qian, do you know why the people Sun Wukong invited were all so dedicated to helping him?"
"First of all, the people Sun Wukong invited were all well-educated. Look at these two people you invited..."
Wang Tianba held up his fan, pretending to be profound, which startled Lu Xiaoqian. Lu Xiaoqian quickly asked, "And what about the second one?"
"Secondly, Sun Wukong has made a great name for himself, so of course those who help him have done their best. But you, my friend, you're just a foolish boy with a treasure in your heart and a heart full of enthusiasm. Without the silly girl, you're nothing. Why should anyone listen to you?"
"So, if you want people to follow you, you must have a reason for them to admire you from the inside out."
After a lecture from Wang Tianba, Lu Xiaoqian hurriedly asked Wang Tianba for advice and to think about what You Suo planned to do after copying the silly girl.
"Let's go find Tang Sanzang!" Wang Tianba said decisively.
"However, this time you may be facing two opponents, as You Suowei also has Ji Lin on his side."
“Ji Lin, although I haven’t had much contact with him, I can tell he’s a good person. He should be able to help me then.” Lu Xiaoqian dismissed the idea of Wang Tianba fighting two against one, but Lu Xiaoqian was wrong. Ji Lin couldn’t go, so this time they could only have a one-on-one duel.
Three days before the full moon in the ninth month of the thirteenth year of Zhenguan...
Outside Huasheng Temple, You Suowei and Lu Xiaoqian were facing off. Knowing that Tang Seng was not there, the two decided to see who could find Tang Seng first. What puzzled Xiaoqian was that Ji Lin was not by You Suowei's side.
However, what the two were unaware of was that their actions were being observed by a mysterious man using his divine sense.
Outside Chang'an City, Lu Xiaoqian and Tang Seng were walking side by side. As early as when he met You Suowei, Lu Xiaoqian had prepared to wait for Tang Seng outside Chang'an City in the manner of waiting for him to come to him.
You Suowei watched Lu Xiaoqian following Tang Seng from a distance, and then deliberately revealed his whereabouts to make Xiaoqian aware of it.
The two then chased each other, leaping over mountains and rivers, and unsurprisingly, Xiaoqian lost track of You Suowei.
At this moment, You Suowei returned to Tang Sanzang's side and slowly approached him step by step. Tang Sanzang also noticed him, but fortunately, Xiao Qian had told him about You Suowei.
“Benefactor You, as the saying goes, when the mind arises, all kinds of demons arise; when the mind ceases, all kinds of demons cease. If you harbor improper thoughts, you will surely bring disaster upon yourself.”
You Suowei didn't take it seriously when he heard it. Just as he was about to capture Tang Sanzang, a bull-headed monster rushed over from a distance and grabbed the two of them.
Just as the bull-headed monster was about to bring Tang Sanzang to its mouth, Tang Sanzang was so frightened that he fainted. It then turned to prepare to put You Suowei into its mouth.
At the critical moment, Xiaoqian arrived carrying a huge rock and threw it directly into the minotaur's mouth.
Old Niu, in pain, released the two. Xiao Qian took Tang Seng away first and sent him to a safe place, while You Suowei was chased by the bull-headed monster.
When You Suowei was killed when he was hit by a falling tree trunk while fleeing, Xiao Qian rushed back and took him away. She put the two of them in a cave and used Sha Niu to treat their wounds. Unfortunately, You Suowei's injuries were too severe and Sha Niu could not heal him.
The danger was not over yet.
Xiaoqian asked Tang Sanzang to take care of You Suowei for the time being while he went to distract the Bull Demon King. No sooner had Xiaoqian left than You Suowei woke up.
Seeing that Xiaoqian had left Tang Seng alone with her, she felt it was unbelievable for a moment, and then the "life master" Tang Seng officially appeared.
"Human beings are born to suffer. You can think about it, even if someone of noble birth like you tastes the flavors of life, is there more bitterness than sweetness, or more sweetness than bitterness?"
"Then what is the meaning of your life?" You Suowei asked, puzzled.
"In order to do things, to do things that benefit the people."
"As far as this humble monk is concerned, there is only one thing I want to do in this life, and that is to pray that I can help people see through the cycle of life and death, achieve enlightenment, and thus attain liberation from suffering and a deeper understanding of life..."
After being purified by Tang Sanzang, You Suowei, who had received higher education, understood these principles, resolved his inner conflicts, and faced his own desires squarely.
Having regained her long-lost "personality," she decided to no longer be Lu Xiaoqian's enemy.
Afterwards, You Suowei, still severely injured, returned to the modern world and was admitted to a hospital.
As the saying goes, "Everything arises from the mind; whether it's a blessing or a curse, it's all determined by oneself..."
On the other side, Lu Xiaoqian successfully lured the troublesome bull-headed monster to a secluded valley.
At this moment, in this tranquil valley, a man with a figure as upright as a pine tree stands quietly.
His eyes were like a bottomless pool, sparkling with a light as bright as stars, as if they could see through the mysteries of all things in the world.
A long, snow-white robe fluttered in the wind, further enhancing his otherworldly aura.
Lu Xiaoqian was slightly startled when he saw that the newcomer was so extraordinary. He was about to ask a question when the other party spoke first: "Don't worry, Lu Xiaoqian. I can handle that minotaur behind you. You should leave now; this place is not safe to stay."
Before Lu Xiaoqian could respond, the man in white leaped into the air like an arrow, his exquisite folding fan instantly unfurling, unleashing a blazing flame. This flame, like a giant red dragon, roared as it charged towards the minotaur.
Just as the flames were about to touch the minotaur, the minotaur finally saw the white-clad man's appearance clearly. His handsome face and deep eyes suddenly filled the minotaur with fear.
It turned around in terror and flew away as if countless evil spirits were chasing it, fearing that if it was even a little slow, it would lose its life.
"Hehe, at least this old ox has some sense." The white-robed man's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile, before he disappeared into the sky like a wisp of wind, leaving Lu Xiaoqian standing alone, his mind filled with great doubt.
"Who exactly is that man in white? How does he know my name? Could he be Ji Lin?" Lu Xiaoqian frowned, lost in deep thought, her mind a jumble of questions that she couldn't unravel.
Filled with doubt, Lu Xiaoqian returned to the cave.
Seeing that Tang Sanzang was safe and sound, he then learned from him that You Suowei had turned over a new leaf and that he himself had returned to the modern world...
