At this moment, Tang Sanzang didn't know how to answer. Seeing the old woman staring at him eagerly, he felt panicked.

"Hey, it seems that you didn't see it. The old woman's eyesight is not very good. It's better to go home and wait." She supported the stone pillar and walked back. Tang Sanzang got off his horse and followed behind.

"Arch Master, where are you going?" The old woman turned around and saw them following them across the bridge and asked with a smile.

"Let's go to the country of Tianzhu in the west to worship Buddha and seek scriptures." Tang Sanzang bowed slightly, with a hint of softness in his voice.

"Oh, Tianzhu country, never heard of it." The old woman walked even slower without the support of the stone pillar, and slowly groped towards the front.

"Bajie, go and help the old man to prevent him from falling." Tang Sanzang turned around and said to his second disciple.

Zhu Bajie had something in his heart. At this moment, he was unwilling to face the old woman and said, "Junior brother, you go, you go."

Sha Monk nodded. He had no psychological burden at all. As far as he was concerned, what the senior brother did was definitely not wrong. If it was said to be a demon, it must be a demon.

"Okay" Sha Monk took the initiative and walked over. He was tall and the old woman was thin. Sha Monk supported the old woman and made the old woman smile from ear to ear and praised her repeatedly.

The old woman's mother-in-law's family lives near the water, and they have to cross a small bridge. However, this is a bamboo bridge with weeping willows on both sides of the bamboo bridge. There are three thatched huts, which are neatly tidied up.

"The old woman has bad eyesight. My Xiu'er takes care of everything inside and outside the house. Hey, her father and I have kept her at home, but we want to find a son-in-law. We have a daughter all the time, and we will rely on her to support her until the end of her life.

Woolen cloth"

When the old woman arrived at the hut, even though she had bad eyesight, she was familiar with the layout of the house. She quickly brought a kettle over and placed a few tea bowls. She found some old tea from somewhere and placed it in the bowls.

inside.

"This tea was just boiled by the old woman, and it's still hot. Thank you, strong man, for helping the old woman go home."

She smiled and thanked her while she was busy.

And Tang Sanzang glanced around the room. It was simple and refreshing, with no valuable furniture. There was a dilapidated square wooden table, a few benches, and a cupboard not far away. There was an earthen stove at the back, and people were eating and drinking.

There are two rooms next to here, which are probably the rooms of the old couple and their daughter.

"Sit down." The old woman asked Tang Sanzang, Sha Monk and Zhu Bajie to sit down. She smiled and went to the spinning wheel beside her and started spinning.

"Old man, you have bad eyesight, how can you still spin yarn?" Tang Sanzang asked with a hint of surprise when he saw the old woman slowly groping to the front of the spinning wheel and starting to work skillfully.

"This is the craft that the old woman has been doing for decades. Practice makes you perfect. It doesn't matter if you can't see clearly." The old woman was busy.

"Master, shall we leave now or immediately? Or shall we leave immediately?" Zhu Bajie whispered in Tang Sanzang's ear.

"Bajie, there are some things that you can't escape. As a master, I really can't bear to tell the old man about them. It's better for you, my disciple, to do it for you." Tang Sanzang looked at Zhu Bajie and couldn't help but said.

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he froze, Master, are you possessed by your senior brother, are you cheating your apprentice like this?

"Master, I, I'm stupid," Zhu Bajie looked helpless, unwilling to take the blame.

Tang Sanzang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The two disciples couldn't stand it any more, they had all learned to talk back.

The spinning wheel was rustling over there. While the old woman was spinning, she kept turning her head and looking out, "Why haven't you come back yet? Could it be that you two are already working in the fields?"

The old woman slowly stopped the spinning wheel, picked up a stick from the side, and leaned on it, "Arch Master, the old woman is going to find my old man and daughter. I'm afraid I can't entertain them. There is some rice and noodles in the kitchen. The Arch Master will go and get them himself.

"Some"

Tang Sanzang stood up and stopped the old woman in front of her, "Old man, your daughter and your husband are already dead."

Bang, the stick in the old woman's hand fell to the ground, "What? You made it clear, the old woman didn't hear clearly."

Her hands were trembling, and the look of disbelief on her face was obviously because she heard something. The next moment, she looked at Tang Sanzang hopefully, "Say it again, say it quickly, say it quickly."

The voice was like the roar of an evil spirit. The old woman's hands, as dry as chicken feet, grabbed Tang Sanzang's monk's robe fiercely. "Tell me, tell me, what happened to my old man and my daughter?"

"They are dead." Tang Sanzang was shaken all over, but he still said it again.

"You're lying, you're lying, I don't believe it, I don't believe it." She collapsed on the ground and cried loudly.

Sha Seng said nothing and stared at the old woman. He also didn't notice any evil spirit in the old woman. The same was true of Zhu Bajie beside him. The two brothers looked at each other quietly and shook their heads.

"Who is it, you? Did you kill my daughter and my old man?" The old woman stood up, with disheveled hair, looking like a madman, picked up the stick on the side, and hit Tang Sanzang.

"Yes, he is my great disciple." Tang Sanzang finally told the truth.

"I'm going to beat you to death. How did my daughter and the old man provoke you?" The old woman no longer cared about it at this moment. The stick hit Tang Sanzang. Sha Monk and Zhu Bajie tried to intercept them, but they were directly stopped by Tang Sanzang.

The old woman was very strong, and she actually hit Tang Sanzang so hard that his forehead was bruised and bruised. Apparently, the old woman hit Tang Sanzang right in the forehead, causing a bulge.

"Master, don't hurt yourself," Sha Monk hurriedly advised.

"It doesn't matter, I can still hold on as a teacher." Tang Sanzang pushed Sha Seng away.

The old woman stood up slowly and sat at the table beside her. Tears and runny nose burst into her eyes. At this moment, she was really sad and heartbroken.

"I'm going to collect the bodies from them." The old woman stood up and stumbled out.

"There are no bones left," Zhu Bajie muttered at the side, unable to bear it any longer.

"What did you say? I heard it. There are no bones. Oh my God, what happened to our family? Who are you? Why do you treat my poor daughter and old man like this? My poor daughter."

The old woman seemed to be going crazy, stumbling out, falling down all of a sudden, then struggling to get up and continuing to rush towards the outer door.

"Bajie, Sha Seng, don't follow me. I'll go there myself."

"Master, here, we are not with you. What will happen if there is danger?"

"If I want to break the karma in my heart, I need to truly see everything clearly and go to Master. You guys wait here. If Master has not come back after half an hour, you go to the field. When the time comes, Master

If not, it means that your senior brother is right and my teacher is wrong. After all, he is really a human being with naked eyes. He cannot see demons clearly. He thinks he can see the world with his mind's eye, but the result is so ridiculous. If

This old man is not a monster, then it is your senior brother's fault. It is his fault. If he wants to kill him, if he wants to die, it will be given to him. If he cannot go to the West to learn scriptures in this life, it is also a fate.

, In the next life, I will still have a relationship with Buddha, I will still be enlightened by Bodhisattva, and I will go to the Western Heaven. For you, it may only be a few decades. How about waiting to become your teacher?"

Zhu Bajie almost cried "Master"

"Okay, I'm going to teach you. If I can't come back, remember to go find your senior brother and give him a message for me, saying that I wrongly blamed him."

Tang Sanzang turned around resolutely, and the old woman had already arrived on the stone bridge and was walking staggeringly towards the distant fields.

"Old man, let me help you go. I, the master, will pay for the mistakes my disciple made."

Tang Sanzang chased after the old woman, supported the old woman, and moved forward slowly.

"Junior Brother Sha, are you just sitting like this? If something bad happens to the master, you and I will wait until we separate. You go back to your Liusha River, and I will go back to my Gaolaozhuang. After we break up, I'm afraid we will be tortured by the Buddhists again."

I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life if I settle the matter with Heaven." Zhu Bajie saw Sha Seng sitting there blankly and shouted anxiously.

"Second senior brother, the master has said that even if he dies, it will only be a few decades of waiting for him. For us, decades are just a snap of the finger, so what does it matter? Anyway, it was all in the first nine lives.

If you are eaten by me, in this tenth life, even if you change to a monster, what will happen? Maybe that old man is not a monster after all."

Sha Monk had confidence in his heart that Black Locust Quasi-Sage had given him a magic weapon that would definitely protect his master's life. However, the master had a demonic obstacle in his heart and would not be willing to risk it with his own body.

"Senior brother, you don't have to worry, we will wait here for only half an hour."

"Hey, in half an hour, I'm afraid there won't be any bones left, Master Sha. Junior Brother Sha, no, I have to go take a look." Zhu Bajie pushed the door open and walked out without caring about Sha Seng.

At this moment, Tang Sanzang slowly supported the old woman and walked towards the distance. Zhu Bajie was far behind, watching the master and the old woman walking towards the field, no matter how they looked at it, they felt strange.

"What's going on? Why do you feel like there are ripples in front of you?" Zhu Bajie felt something was wrong. The figures of the two people in front of him slowly became illusory, as if something was blocking his spiritual exploration.

The two people here seem to be in front, but in fact they are probably gone long ago.

"No, senior brother is right, master really encountered a goblin" Zhu Bajie yelled hurriedly.

"Sha Monk, come out quickly. Master has encountered a monster." Zhu Bajie directly used the nine-tooth rake, and suddenly hit the rake against the illusory ripples in front of him.

The ripples were getting weirder and weirder, but they didn't break.

"Senior Brother" Sand Monk also rushed out holding a treasure staff.

"It's over, the master was kidnapped by the goblin, and we are going to separate." Zhu Bajie looked at the ripples in front of him, and hurriedly picked up the nine-tooth rake, "What are you still doing? If you don't want to go back to Liusha River to be a goblin, just smash it for me.

"

The two brothers struck wildly. They didn't know what the ripple was, but it was so strong. With their strength, they could smash it for a long time, but it still existed, swaying, but not broken.

"Too bad, the master and the goblin have disappeared." Zhu Bajie looked up and saw that Tang Sanzang was supporting the old woman, but there was no trace of him.

At this moment, Tang Sanzang had already walked a long way while supporting the old woman.

"Why did your apprentice kill my old man and daughter? Let him come out and confront the old woman. My family is just an ordinary farmer. I have never seen you. Why did you kill them? How did you let the old woman live?"

The old woman walked and cried all the way, which made Tang Sanzang feel unbearable.

"Old man, all the mistakes we made are our fault. My eldest disciple was a man of strong character. He escorted me all the way to Tianzhu Kingdom to obtain the true scriptures. Along the way, he also killed many demons and monsters.

, protected my life. This time, my eldest disciple mistakenly thought your poor daughter and husband were monsters, so he beat them to death."

"Monsters? How could they be monsters? Your eldest disciple doesn't know what's right and wrong. I'm going to take him to court. They can't die in vain. I'm afraid you, a monk, have a very vicious heart. You followed me all the way, right?

I want to go to the wild and kill the old woman too, so that I can kill everyone and silence them."

"Old man, I am a monk. How could I do something so harmful to nature and increase my karma? In order to protect me, my disciple hurt your husband and daughter. If you want him to pay with his life, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it. He will be driven away by me.

"Yes, and he is a god. He cannot be hurt by a knife or burned by fire. I am his master. I will bear all the sins. If you want to kill or cut into pieces, I will not hesitate for a moment." Tang Sanzang spoke slowly, but his expression was

Dignified and firm.

"What you said is nice, how can anyone not be afraid of death?" the old woman said disdainfully.

"Old man, this is the wrong way to go." Tang Sanzang walked, but found that the field was not far away, and there were farmers pulling plows there, but now as he walked, that person was gone.
