Journey to the West: The Ninth Life

The cold light reflected from the sharp blade shone on the man's face, making Sha Wujing's eyes almost scarlet.

He slowly clenched the handle of the knife, and walked up to the 'six-eared macaque' step by step.

Sun Wukong slept soundly with his eyes closed.

He had a long dream. He dreamed that he took Tang Xuanzang back to Huaguo Mountain, took him to Shuilian Cave, and took him to see the peach trees all over the mountain behind Huaguo Mountain. .

Breathing evenly, his expression was rarely stretched.

But Sha Wujing saw all of this, but he became more and more resentful and disgusted.

For him, the six-eared macaque is the culprit who destroyed his perfect plan for thousands of years.

It even desecrated all his fantasies about that person in his mind.

Damn him.

He wants to get rid of him.

Taking a cold glance at Tang Xuanzang, who was also asleep not far away, Sha Wujing narrowed his eyes, lowering his eyes to hide the fleeting killing intent.

For Tang Xuanzang.

He also absolutely refused to let go.

How can he be treated wholeheartedly by the Great Sage, how can he be cared for by that man.But what did he do?He can't do anything well except being burdensome.

Just not now.

Sha Wujing sneered, lowered his eyes, still showing his usual honest and taciturn appearance, but without hesitation, the dagger in his hand stabbed viciously towards the heart of the 'six-eared macaque' .

The sound of a sharp object piercing the heart.

Dull, yet unintelligibly harsh.

It was so quiet that even the sound of leaves blowing outside the cave could be heard clearly.

The place where 'Six-Eared Macaque' was stabbed by the dagger sprayed blood on the ground and Sha Wujing's face.

Warm, salty, sticky.

Sha Wujing wiped his face with his hand, and wiped the blood stains on his hands, not only did he not feel uncomfortable at all, but after seeing the blood, his eyes became more bloody and excited.

Raise your hand, fiercely.

Another stabbing.

The sound of the dagger being buried in the hand came one after another, but it was only a few breaths, and the sleeping 'six-eared macaque' was already covered in blood holes.

Bloody.

Sha Wujing grinned, his smile was a little sinister and strange, against the crackling and burning bonfire, it was vaguely ferocious.

"You want to kill me while I'm asleep, huh?"

A slightly joking low-pitched male voice sounded from behind Sha Wujing. By the way, the owner of the voice even raised his hand and patted Sha Wujing on the shoulder.

Incredible.

Shock.

In just a few seconds, Sha Wujing's expression had changed several times.

By the end, his face was gloomy and terrifying.

Only then did he see clearly, the one who was leaning against the stone wall and fell asleep, and was killed by him with the dagger, where was the six-eared macaque?

It's just a piece of mud squeezed into a human shape.

But the 'six-eared macaque' stood in front of him intact, with a half-smile, almost sarcastically looking at him.

Sun Wukong found it very interesting.

He squinted his eyes and had a panoramic view of all the changes in Sha Wujing's expression.From the beginning when Sha Wujing pretended to be asleep, until he stood up and took a dagger to kill himself.

Sun Wukong is always awake.

He was just curious at first, guessing what Sha Wujing was pretending to be sleeping for.

But he never thought that Sha Wujing would take the risk and kill the identity of 'six-eared macaque'.

He frowned slightly, logically speaking, the six-eared macaque was sent by the Tathagata, if Sha Wujing was the one who tipped the news back then and made him and Tang Xuanzang have nowhere to go, then he shouldn't take the risk today. The risk is to shoot the six-eared macaque played by himself.

Look at his expression.

It was really killing intent.

But what is it for?

"Since you noticed it, I'm not as good as others."

Sha Wujing lowered his head, couldn't see his expression clearly, and spoke in a dull voice.

"Why are you killing me?"

Sun Wukong flipped his right hand over, grabbed the dagger in Sha Wujing's hand in the blink of an eye, put it directly on his neck, squinted his eyes, and asked sharply.

"Why do you ask so many questions?" Sha Wujing lowered his head and his voice was dull, without the slightest intention to let go. He looked at the soil under his feet and refused to say a word.

It's as if you want to kill or cut it, and let it go as you please.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense and murderous.

The dagger in Sun Wukong's hand was sharp, and when he placed it on Sha Wujing's neck, he could almost feel the sense of crisis as the wind blows his hairs.

All he needed was a little force with his right hand, and blood shot out, and Sha Wujing's life would be killed by him in an instant.

"stop!"

Tang Xuanzang didn't know when he woke up. He stood not far from the two of them, dressed in thin clothes, but pursed his lips and spoke in a deep voice.

Hearing the sound, Monkey King raised his eyebrows.

Sha Wujing remained motionless, not even the slightest change or fluctuation in his expression.

Sun Wukong, who noticed this, became more and more suspicious in his heart, and his mind turned sharply. He turned his head to look at Tang Xuanzang, his eyes were sharp and provocative, and his killing intent was awe-inspiring.

"You good apprentice is going to kill me."

"Caught by me, now I'm just doing what he did to me, and doing it to him again, what's wrong?"

After listening to what he said, Tang Xuanzang's eyes naturally fell on Sha Wujing.

obviously.

He also saw that the six-eared macaque was not the work of the Great Sage.

That's why she wanted to kill him while he was asleep.

Even he could do this for the great sage, but he drove him away with his own hands.

He pursed his lips and looked away, his throat felt a little dry.

"Wu Jing is the envoy sent by the Buddha himself to accompany me to the west to learn scriptures. If you kill him, how will you explain to the Buddha in the end?"

"Are you pleading for your third disciple?"

Sun Wukong raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Sha Wujing's face. Still, he didn't see the slightest change in expression in his eyes.

lol.

The right hand holding the dagger was released, and the sharp blade fell to the ground.

Sun Wukong stretched his body a little, as if giving Tang Xuanzang a face, went straight to a little bit inside the cave and fell asleep.

"You are not my opponent."

"Don't waste your time."

He said these two sentences with his eyes closed, as if he was talking to himself, and after he finished speaking, he breathed evenly, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Wujing, the Great Sage is not here, don't—"

Tang Xuanzang tried to persuade Sha Wujing not to do some risky things, but before he finished speaking, Sha Wujing raised his head and gave him a gloomy look.

"You should know best why the elder brother is not here."

Passing Tang Xuanzang, with an indifferent voice and disgusted eyes, at the moment they passed by, Sha Wujing paused slightly.

"Master, you are not worthy of the kindness that Eldest Brother treats you."

Tang Xuanzang trembled all over, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a single word in the end.

Sha Wujing grinned silently, touched the blood stains on his neck that had been cut by the dagger, sat down at random, and fell asleep.

When Tian Peng came back, what he saw was such a situation.

'Six-eared Macaque' was fast asleep, and Sha Wujing was also asleep. Tang Xuanzang was the only one sitting on the edge of the cave, with his eyes open, wondering what he was thinking.

"Master, why are you still awake? You have to hurry tomorrow morning."

Tianpeng sighed, he naturally knew what Tang Xuanzang was doing, but the matter between these two people was too complicated and difficult, even he, an outsider who could see clearly by the sidelines, couldn't judge whether the choice Tang Xuanzang made today was right or not. Still wrong, let alone himself.

"Do you know what it is to learn from the West?"

Tang Xuanzang asked suddenly.

Tianpeng was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he answered, "The legendary Mahayana Buddhism?"

Unsurprisingly at this answer, Tang Xuanzang smiled lightly, without nodding or shaking his head, he was noncommittal, his eyes were a little dazed, and his emotions were unclear.

That appearance, Tianpeng saw it in his eyes, and for some reason, it was actually a little inexplicably desolate.

"The Great Sage will take care of everything."

Canopy spoke suddenly.

Looking at Tang Xuanzang's side face swearingly, he said such a sentence word by word.

"Master, you must trust the Great Sage."

Eye to eye.

Tang Xuanzang wanted to laugh, but his eyes were hot and sour. He nodded, "I know, I have always believed in him."

there.

'Six-eared macaque' seemed to be asleep, turned over and fell asleep in a more comfortable position.

With his back to Tang Xuanzang, he closed his eyes and smiled lightly.

Stupid stupid monk, who else can you trust if you don't believe me?

You need someone else to tell you.

How stupid.

Starting early in the morning, traveling day and night, there was almost no stop in the middle.

In a group of four, Tang Xuanzang and Sha Wujing seldom made a sound except for Tianpeng who occasionally spoke. As for the 'six-eared macaque', they often appeared quietly and disappeared without a sound.

But it is strange to say.

During this journey, I didn't encounter a single monster from the beginning to the end, and the journey was extraordinarily peaceful and smooth.

It was the same day as usual, and the 'six-eared macaque' was not there. Tang Xuanzang, Tianpeng, Sha Wujing and the others continued on their way.

When we reached the bottom of a towering mountain range, it was already sunset.

"Rest here for a night, and then we will start tomorrow morning, okay?" Tianpeng glanced at the mountain road, and after a moment of consideration, he turned to Tang Xuanzang and asked.

Tang Xuanzang nodded. He naturally knew that the mountain road was difficult to walk. If he had to climb the mountain late at night, he might not be able to get out of the mountain overnight.

Find firewood, light a fire, and cook.

The three of them worked together in a division of labor and were busy, but it was done very quickly.

When the vegetarian vegetarian meal was ready, Tang Xuanzang took a bowl out of the pot and handed it to Tianpeng, then to Sha Wujing, and left the last bowl to serve himself.

"I've been eating porridge for the past few days. If Eldest Brother is here, I'm sure I'm going to get angry again, haha—" Tianpeng smiled while drinking the porridge, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said , the smile froze on his face, he coughed, and was trying to remedy that, Tang Xuanzang waved his hand with a faint expression on his face.

He smiled slightly and nodded.

"That's right, the Great Sage always said that porridge is tasteless and not as delicious as peaches."

Tianpeng was a little surprised that Tang Xuanzang would continue his words, and nodded in a daze.

"The Great Sage is a monkey, so naturally he likes to eat peaches..."

bang-

The two were still talking, when a pile of branches suddenly fell from the sky three steps away, and the dust was flying.

Both of them were startled by the sound, turned their heads to look, and there were plump peaches hanging on the branches?

The 'six-eared macaque' descended from the sky, glanced at the bowl Tang Xuanzang held in his hand, frowned, and spoke in disgust.

"What's good about white porridge?"

He pulled two peaches casually, rubbed them with his hands, and threw them into the arms of Tang Xuanzang and Tianpeng respectively.

I also picked one off, put it in my mouth and took a bite, leaning against the tree with a lazy look.

"Isn't eating peaches much better than porridge?"

While speaking, he smiled lightly and turned his head to look at Tang Xuanzang who was a little dazed.

"Your great sage is a monkey, so he likes to eat peaches."

"My body is also a monkey."

Tang Xuanzang and the 'six-eared macaque' stared at each other. At that moment, he felt as if he saw something else in his eyes. He wanted to see clearly, but he turned his face away.

I sucked it with water, put it in my mouth and took a bite, the juice overflowed, and it was extremely sweet.

The land where they are now has already passed the peach-producing season.

The peach taste is delicious.

Thinking about it, I'm afraid I have to go far, far away to get this peach.

Suddenly a little dazed, Tang Xuanzang smiled lightly, thinking in his heart that he didn't know where the great sage is now, maybe because of his extremely tricky taste, he might also like this peach.

The wind gusts.

The yellow sand is flying.

At some point, the four of them, the master and the apprentice, were completely enveloped by a black wind. The evil wind came quietly, but it was extremely powerful.

Tianpeng was the first one to react. He dropped the peach in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, a golden light flashed and it turned into a rake weapon.

Then came Sha Wujing.

The two stood at the front, standing in front of Tang Xuanzang, ready to fight.

It touches 'six-eared macaque', that is, Monkey King.

Still looking lazy and casual, leaning against a tree to eat peaches, as if watching a good show.

Jie Jie's laughter came from the middle of the black gang wind, sharp and ear-piercing.

"Earlier in the morning, I heard that the golden monk from the Tang Dynasty was going to pass by my place. After waiting for a long time, I had to come over, so I'm going to entertain him."

"I don't know if the holy monk will show you the face, and accompany me, a little monster who wants to live forever, to go back to the cave as a guest?"

"Bold evildoer!"

Tianpeng yelled, with a stern expression, "Is the holy monk something you can easily imagine?"

"Leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Speaking of this, it is natural to prepare for war.

The monster in the black demon wind sneered a few times, and challenged in a deep voice: "You are the canopy marshal who was in charge of 36 heavenly soldiers in the previous heaven? Now that you have become this monster with a human head and a pig face, you might as well recognize me and do it!" Your Majesty, I will give you a mountain to show off your prestige, hahaha."

Tianpeng gradually tightened his grip on the rake, and he was enraged by the monster.

With a loud shout, he slammed the rake fiercely towards the center covered by the black wind.

The black mist dissipated.

A man in a black robe with no face visible stands in the middle.

A pair of eyes that shone with a deep green light were particularly conspicuous.

Basilisk?

Tianpeng sneered, "It's just a mere snake demon who dared to attack. Master, today we can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people!"

Even though he said that, Tianpeng didn't mean to relax at all in his heart.

This snake demon is very powerful, looking at it, I'm afraid it's not easy to get along with.

Standing behind, Tang Xuanzang couldn't help sweating, habitually thinking of Monkey King, but realized in the next second that Monkey King was no longer there.

Canopy Sha Wujing went up together.

The black-clothed snake demon was not afraid at all.

The energy is overflowing, and the dust is flying.

The momentum is terrifying.

Dozens of strokes have passed in the blink of an eye.

After Tianpeng was reincarnated in the animal realm, his mana was not as good as before. Together with Sha Wujing, they even faintly began to show signs of fatigue, probably not a match for this black-clothed snake monster at all.

Seeing the canopy staggering back a step, being hit by the spell of the snake demon and spitting out a mouthful of blood, Tang Xuanzang's eyes turned red almost instantly.

Turning around, I happened to see the happy 'six-eared macaque' eating peaches. I didn't care about anything else, grabbed his arm and shouted: "Go up and help, hurry up!"

Sun Wukong raised his eyebrows.

His eyes fell on Tang Xuanzang's face flushed with anxiety, his eyes rolled away, he finished eating the peaches in his hands, wiped his hands, and then spoke slowly.

"Just give me a kiss and I'll go."
