[Journey to the West] Tucao Emperor who was delayed by Buddhism

Huamo knew from the very beginning that he had two masters, one was good and the other was bad.

But Duxian didn't admit it. He said that there is only one master, but it's just good and bad. People in the world are like this, and people are so fickle.

Seeing that Huamo refused to believe it, Duxian asked him back: "Have you ever seen two souls contained in two bodies at the same time?"

Huamo shook his head, saying he hadn't seen it before.

But even so, he was not reconciled, and asked Duxian: "If there is only one person, how can it be so unpredictable?"

Duxian said, people are like this, sometimes they are very kind, sometimes they are very evil, sometimes they keep saying they want to treat you well, and sometimes they turn their faces and are ruthless, as if they have never loved you, this is a human being.

But they don't understand, because they are monsters, and monsters are too stupid to learn to love someone and hate someone at the same time.

So no matter how strange the master is, no matter how frightening he is when he becomes another person, Du Xian and Hua Mo decided to continue to follow him.

Master is not a master, sometimes he is a young man, he is full of expectations for the future, he likes alchemy, he will practice all kinds of weird pills that make people have diarrhea, he will do fun investigations, Take Duxian and Huamo around, looking for fun things all over the sky...

But sometimes he would collapse suddenly, dry up and grow old in an instant, turning into a sinister and terrifying old man.

Leaning on a cane, he stared at them with those dead eyes, as if he hadn't recognized them for a long time, and only asked who they were with his hoarse voice.

How can people be so strange?

The little master likes alchemy, and so does the old teacher. When the old teacher makes alchemy, he always adds some strange things into it. He doesn't let others see it, it's very mysterious.

He doesn't like Duxian, nor Huamo.He looked at their eyes, as if the two of them were not his good apprentices, but two little monsters.

When Master became an old man, he didn't like them anymore.

But fortunately, the old man only came out a few times a year. Every time Duxian and Huamo were disappointed with him, he turned back to that lovable master, and he didn't remember anything. He still loved them and took them around to play. Life seemed to be the same again.

Master is really strange.

As time passed year after year, Duxian and Huamo began to wonder: where did he go every time he quietly left?

Although the old man's master frightened them, they still tried to follow him to see his secret base.

Maybe we can find a way to change the master back?

They lost it the first time, and lost it again the second time. By the third time, Duxian had lost interest, and only Huamo followed.

It seems to be a desolate and quiet place at the end of the sky. Under the endless gray sky is a cave with never-ending flames. There are infinite passages in the cave. The magma covered it and turned into ashes in the air in an instant.

Huamo turned and turned in that terrible cave, hearing the endless wind and ubiquitous ghost cries.

Are there ghosts here?

Human children are afraid of ghosts, while monster children only think ghosts are fun. When they have nothing to do, they catch ghosts and play with them. Ghosts will always be frightened and run away screaming and screaming. When beasts are afraid, they will flee back to their lairs and transform into demons. Followed the terrified ghost to the center of the cave.

Wow, the cave is full of ghosts, Huamo is chasing ghosts everywhere, it's very fun to play for the first time.

The second time he brought Duxian here, although Duxian also liked to play with ghosts, he said to him: "The ghosts here are all broken souls when they died, how can you bully them like this?"

Huamo said: "I just chased them for fun, and I won't bully them or tear them apart. The ones who break them up when they are killed are the bad guys."

The master would come here every time, but after he became a little master, he knew nothing about it.

After the two of them played here for a while, they found that the broken souls were piled up layer by layer, and at the end was a huge heart.

What monster's heart can be so huge?

In the warm and humid cave, the heart kept beating, and the magma flowed through the middle, flowing in all directions like blood.

Hua Mo said: "No wonder the old man has been hiding here, how fun it is here."

The two of them were talking, only to see a young boy sleeping on top of the heart, his profile was very nice, his soft hair spread out like splashed ink, the two little monsters felt strange and walked over to look at him.

Awakened by the sound of footsteps, the boy slowly opened his eyes and turned his head.

Rao Duxian and Huamo, who are used to seeing monsters, were also scared and screamed.

Half of the young man's face is human, very delicate, his lazy eyes are like cats, the corners of which are carelessly drooping, and the profile looks like a fairy; the other half of his face has no facial features and is as weird as a mirror. Opened his mouth, his mouth was full of sharp teeth, and suddenly jumped up from the heart, his posture was like a wild beast, crawling on the ground, with the huge fox tail swaying behind him, it was no surprise to anyone Freaks!

Duxian and Huamo were so frightened that they turned around and ran away. The human-faced fox hissed all the way behind, wailing terribly, and chased after him!

Huamo was terrified and shouted as he ran, "What the hell does he want!"

Duxian ran forward desperately: "How do I know!"

The two little monsters who were extremely powerful on weekdays were frightened terribly this time, and ran like crazy in the magma cave. Duxian shouted: "It's all your fault! I told you to run around! Now you know why the old man hid Stay here!"

Huamo also roared: "What's the use of saying this now!"

He ran forward as hard as he could, and roared, "I won't come here again!"

This magma cave is very strange, neither of them can fly in the clouds, but at the beginning they ran around and went the wrong way, and now they can't find the exit, lost their way in this narrow cave with infinite wrong ways .

After the two of them ran together for a while, Duxian said: "If we go around a dead end, we will die! Look at the road ahead is getting narrower and narrower. Maybe this monster just wants to drive us to a dead end!"

Hua Mo said anxiously: "Then what should I do! Brother, what do you think?"

Du Xian quickly tore off a corner of his sleeve, twisted it into a paper crane, and said: "You see there are many small eyes in the cave, we can't get out, let a paper crane go out to find Master to save us."

Hua Mo shivered: "No! Master has become that old man again, he will definitely be angry if he finds out!"

Duxian was about to be pissed off by him: "We're all going to die, you're still afraid that he'll be angry!"

Huamo still didn't dare, but said in a hurry: "Let, let go to the South China Sea, and let Da Hei Hei come and save us! There is also that fire-breathing child, he is so powerful that he beat Monkey King, Monkey King, to the ground. , Didn’t you give him your candy last time? He owes you a favor and asks him to come too!”

Duxian sent out the paper crane for help, and he could only say: "Who knows if they can find it or not! Maybe they came, and we are already dead!"

The two of them nestled in the corner, arguing and folding paper cranes, and suddenly found that there was silence behind them, and the monster seemed to have disappeared.

Huamo looked around in the magma cave, but there were jagged stones everywhere, and the field of vision was not wide. There was a faint uneasiness hidden in the sultry air, and the monster had disappeared.

Huamo tugged at Duxian's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Brother?"

Du Xian immediately said: "Hush!"

Huamo was terrified, and huddled on Duxian's shoulder, his whole body huddled together, and he was about to cry: "I'm scared."

Duxian hugged him, looked around vigilantly, and comforted him, saying: "It's okay, with my brother here, you will be fine."

It's really strange, the ferocious monster that was roaring and chasing just now is gone now.

It was so quiet that the two of them could almost hear their own breathing.

Huamo was about to cry: "Do you think it left? Shall we go back?"

Du Xian covered his mouth: "Shut up, it's very cunning!"

Hua Mo was covered by his brother, and he didn't dare to vent his breath. He just grabbed his sleeve tightly and looked around in horror.

Has that terrifying beast with a half face of a beautiful boy and half face of a monster like a mirror gone?

Huamo looked back in fear, then left and right, and suddenly felt a chill.

It was as if something was quietly waiting.

Huamo shuddered for a moment, tremblingly looked up to the top of his head——

At some point, the monster stretched out its shiny glass feet, and it was entrenched on top of its head like a spider. The human face was tilting its head slightly, its eyes were squinted, and its bloody mouth was opening silently. watch them.

Huamo was frightened and completely froze, and he was covered by Duxian, unable to move or make a sound, and could only stare at the monster with wide-eyed eyes.

That ferocious and distorted face seemed to be smiling.

Huamo broke free from Duxian's hand and screamed: "Brother, brother!!!"

Du Xianqi said: "I'm not saying that you told you not to—"

When he turned his head, he saw that Hua Mo couldn't move. He looked up at the top of his head, and when he looked up, his eyes went dark, and he saw a blurry shadow reflecting the light with its bloody mouth open, and rushed towards him!

Huamo's whole body was stiff, and he slammed his head hard, crushing the monster's head with a crack, and several teeth fell off, which angered the monster instantly, and it was twitching and rolling on the ground, making terrible roar.

Duxian grabbed his younger brother and ran crazily over the magma, desperately saying, "It's over, it's over, we can't get out."

Hua Mo was dumbfounded, and asked in a daze: "Brother, do we recognize that person? It's not the monster, it's the monster's good face, do we recognize it?"

Duxian said: "You were so scared, how could we recognize that strange thing! Such a disgusting thing will never be forgotten after seeing it once!"

Also, that huge deformed mouth, that horrible nondescript thing spliced ​​together with a human face and a faceless face...

Hua Mo said blankly: "But that good-looking eye, isn't it a bit like the good fortune boy from the South China Sea?"

Duxian roared: "Stop talking nonsense, we're still pointing at that fire-breathing kid to save us! If it's really him, we'll all be dead!"

The two stumbled in front of countless intersections in the magma cave, circling like a ghost hitting a wall, but they couldn't find the exit.

Duxian kicked on the rock in despair, and shouted: "Why can't I get out!"

Hua Mo was still thinking about something, seeing that he was venting his anger on the stone, he quickly said: "Don't do that!"

Duxian grabbed his younger brother again and wanted to run forward, Huamo grabbed him and stood still: "Don't waste your energy, it must be very familiar with this place, we can't run out!"

Du Xianqi said: "That can't wait to die!"

Huamo said anxiously: "But why didn't it eat us just now? Did you see it? It hung on our heads without making any sound! It still looked at us and smiled, which means it knew we couldn't get out!"

Duxian was frustrated when he heard this, and said, "Then what do you say? Are we just waiting here?"

Huamo said: "Do you think it doesn't want to eat us? You just saw that its teeth can't bite our bodies at all. Master said before that we are harder than many weapons. It was killed by me. Knocked out my teeth!"

Du Xian stared at him with wide eyes: "If you don't want to eat us, you still want to play with us?"

Hua Mo said anxiously: "That cave is full of ghosts with incomplete souls, maybe it is a soul eater! It just wants to torture us first, force us to collapse, and devour our souls!"

Duxian's mind was in a mess at first, and he had no other way, so he had to say: "Okay, okay, let's calm down, we can't let it sneak attack us."

As he was speaking, he was suddenly startled, and found that one eye was exposed behind a stone in the magma cave, only one narrowed eye, as if a wild beast was calmly staring at its prey.

However, it wasn't this terrifying monster that terrified him the most.

But the monster's eyes are so familiar.

Huamo was right.

He had seen the owner of this piece of soul before.

It's very, very similar to that...

He looked very much like the quiet young man in spotless white clothes sitting peacefully on top of the lotus, with a pair of lazy eyes hanging loosely in the sun, looking at them casually with a smile.

They were young at that time and couldn't remember many things clearly.

But he was the only one who remembered.

The familiar voice sounded in the memory: "You two little things are in trouble again? This stick is the treasure of the senior brother. He knows that you two have gnawed it, and he will definitely hit the palms of you two little bastards."

There is a gentle smile in the young man's voice, and the gentle voice is like a clear spring, making it hard not to feel attached:

"I'll hide it for you. You will be a good boy in the future, okay?"

Duxian hugged his younger brother tightly, looked at the hideous monster behind the rock, and looked at the monster's eyes with a treacherous and terrifying smile.

How could it be like this?
