[Journey to the West] The poor monk is a fake monk

Together with Zheng Yulang, the master and apprentice came to Jinping Mansion and stayed in Ciyun Temple.

When chatting with Chen Tangtang, the abbot of Ciyun Temple said: "The elder has a predestined relationship with our Jinping Mansion. The annual Lantern Festival on the [-]th Lantern Festival is about to start again. Tonight we will start trying the lanterns. Tomorrow will be the [-]th. , Elder, if you are interested, you may wish to take a walk on the street."

"Amitabha, thank you Abbot for reminding me."

At night, when the lights were on, Chen Tangtang was slowly sweeping the pagoda of Ciyun Temple with a broom.

The apprentices wanted to help her, but she said: "This pagoda is not very high, it is enough for Master to clean it alone. It looks sincere. If you have nothing to do, you can go to the street to look at the lanterns, and talk to Master when you come back." Said."

Since it was her request, several apprentices naturally complied.

Chen Tangtang scanned a few floors before climbing up to a high place. She leaned against the window and looked out. The streets and alleys were full of lanterns, reflecting the sky as if it were daytime.

A gust of wind blew, and the tip of her nose smelled a fragrance, which was rich and plump, like a beautiful girl who took off her clothes little by little to seduce passers-by who smelled it.

She couldn't help but mutter: "What kind of fragrance is this?"

"This is the aroma of Suhe sesame oil after it is ignited." A strange voice sounded from behind.

Chen Tangtang turned his head immediately, but the broom in his hand fell down in disobedience.

The man hurriedly bowed to support him, raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother Elder, did I scare you?"

Chen Tangtang looked down at him, but his bald head flickered his eyes.

It turned out to be a little novice.

Holding the big broom, he looked at Chen Tangtang with a smile on his face.

Chen Tang Tang said softly: "No, it's the poor monk's fault, the poor monk just lost his mind."

The novice blinked his eyes, "Brother Elder is so powerful, everyone else has gone to see the lights, and you are the only one here sweeping the tower."

Chen Tangtang shook his head: "The poor monk is not very powerful, and the poor monk is also attracted by the color of the lights outside. Tomorrow's [-]th, the poor monk must go to the lantern market to have a look."

"Then... shall I take elder brother with me? Elder brother probably doesn't know the way here, right?"

Chen Tangtang touched his nose.

To be honest, the poor monk didn't even know the way to Jinshan Temple where he lived for many years.

The novice said cheerfully, "Then I will make an agreement with elder brother?"

Chen Tangtang squatted down and nodded, "Okay."

Sha Mi rolled his eyes, and suddenly stretched out a little finger towards her, "Brother, let's make an appointment, shall we?"

Chen Tangtang looked helpless and gentle, she hooked his little finger with her little finger, "The poor monk will not lie to you."

The novice smiled and said, "I know elder brother won't lie to me, but I just want elder brother's agreement."

His expression was sly and full of the sunshine of a young man, even if he deliberately set a trap, she couldn't bear to be angry.

After Chen Tangtang made an appointment with him, she touched his bald head casually. When she looked down at his bald head, she suddenly found that there seemed to be something on the tip of his nose.

"You child, why did you eat something on your nose?" Chen Tangtang gently scratched his nose with his fingers.

The little monk didn't react at first.

Chen Tangtang wiped it several times, but still didn't wipe off the stuff on the tip of his nose.

"what is this?"

She pressed his shoulders, leaned closer to his face, and looked carefully, only to find that there was a touch of silver on the tip of his nose.

"Ah!" Sha Mi exclaimed, hurriedly took a few steps back, and covered his nose.

"Hey, let the poor monk take a good look at your nose, what's going on?"

Chen Tangtang took a step forward with a worried expression.

The novice took a few steps back in a hurry.

Behind him was another big window, Chen Tangtang didn't dare to let him retreat further.

"Okay, okay, if you don't like me going over, then I won't go over."

Her clear and warm eyes stared at him without blinking, "Then tell me, are you sick?"

"No." The monk hesitated, hesitating.

"Is there anything you can't tell me?" Chen Tangtang showed a sad expression.

The novice was really nervous and said: "No, I like Elder Brother. I am not sick, I am... a little waste, an ugly monster."

He lowered his head, and the soles of his sandals kept rubbing against the ground.

"How come? You were born so icy and cute."

"But that's what other friends say about me. My nose is naturally different from ordinary people. They say I'm a monster, ugly..."

He lowered his head timidly, talking to himself clearly, but his bright eyes looked at Chen Tangtang from time to time, as if he was lying in the mud and waiting for his hands to pull him out.

Obviously just a child.

Chen Tangtang waved to him, "Come here."

The novice took another step back and looked at the window. The window sills in this pagoda are still short, and if he accidentally stumbles and falls, he can fall directly.

Chen Tangtang didn't dare to call him over again.

She asked him, "Do you believe what they say, or what I say."

Sha Mi whispered: "I trust elder brother, I know who treats me well."

Chen Tangtang smiled softly and warmly, almost pinching his heart.

"Okay, let me tell you, you are very beautiful, and your nose is also very cute, you are a little fairy, do you believe me?"

Sha Mi looked at her hesitantly, and finally whispered: "I believe..."

He sobbed and raised his voice: "Brother Elder, I believe in you!"

Chen Tang Tang opened his arms to him.

He wanted to run over, but somehow the sole of his foot slipped, and he fell straight out of the window and fell headfirst.

Chen Tangtang didn't have time to think about it, she picked up the golden light, rushed over, kicked her feet, and jumped out of the window.

She fell even faster, and her body seemed to be burning with golden flames.

Sammy stared blankly.

But she stretched out her arms and hugged him into her arms in the falling wind.

Just when Sha Mi thought he was going to fall to the ground with her, golden wings suddenly sprouted from her back.

Those golden wings were long and big, completely covering the sky in front of his eyes.

The golden wings flapped lightly, and the falling speed of the two immediately slowed down, but during the flapping of the wings, a piece of gold dust fell.

The monk stretched out his hand in a daze, trying to catch the golden powder, but the golden powder disappeared as soon as it touched his palm, without substance or touch, like shattered light.

Chen Tangtang stepped on the ground with both feet, and the novice in his arms was still clinging to her body, refusing to leave.

Chen Tangtang thought he was still afraid, so he reached out and rubbed the back of his head, and said softly, "Don't worry..."

The novice raised his head abruptly, with tears like pearls hanging from his eyelashes, he said with joy and sadness, "Brother Elder, are we two dead?"

Just as Chen Tang Tang wanted to speak comfortingly, he pursed his lips, with the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a contented smile, "It's great to be able to die with Brother Elder."

Chen Tangtang: "..."

She couldn't maintain the golden light for a moment, and the golden wings suddenly cracked, turning into pieces of golden light. Thousands of broken golden lights fluttered and fell from the sky, like golden snowflakes fluttering between the sky and the earth.

The novice was stunned, he stared blankly at Chen Tangtang's handsome and moving face in the golden snow.

"Are you a fairy?"

Chen Tangtang smiled, "It's not the poor monk, well, you should go back to sleep, don't think too much, just remember my words when you wake up tomorrow."

Sha Mi's face turned red all of a sudden, "Brother Elder likes me..."

Chen Tangtang: "..." How come you remember this sentence!

She was a little helpless, but he let go of his hands in panic, with his back behind him, looked at her timidly and said, "Don't be angry."

"No, I'm not angry."

"That's good." He laughed again, very innocent and cute.

"Brother Elder, I'm going to sleep, good night."

Chen Tangtang said softly: "Good night."

He ran out quickly, but before running two steps, he ran back again.

Chen Tangtang looked at him puzzled.

But he motioned Chen Tangtang to lower his head.

Chen Tangtang obeyed his will, lowered his head and bent his waist.

"Chirp—"

He kissed her loudly on the cheek, and then ran away covering his flushed face.

Chen Tangtang shook his head helplessly.

Is it a child after all...

The next night was the most important Shangyuan Lantern Festival in the city.

Bajie: "Master, are you going to have a look tonight?"

Chen Tangtang smiled slightly, "I want to take a look, but I have already made an appointment with someone else as a teacher, so you can go on your own, my disciples."

"An appointment?" Bajie stroked his chin thoughtfully.

Sun Xingzhe: "Just..."

Ao Lie rushed to say: "Who is sneaking away and wants to take Master away, stand up if you have the ability!"

His eyes "swish, swish" like a knife, scraping towards Zheng Yulang.

Zheng Yulang squinted his eyes and said, "Could it be that the person you're dating isn't among us?"

"exactly."

Bajie seemed to think of something and laughed, "Okay, then let's go first, Master wants to have fun."

He pulled Sun Xingzhe, Sha Wujing, Ao Lie and others away.

Zheng Yulang circled around Chen Tangtang a few times.

Chen Tangtang was puzzled: "What are you doing?"

Zheng Yulang's eyes flashed, and he said inexplicable words, "I suddenly discovered that you are really good. Every time I think you are good enough, you will give me more surprises."

ha?

do not understand at all.

Zheng Yulang patted her on the shoulder and said softly, "I originally wanted to save you from these catastrophes, but you have decided to do it yourself, and I will support you."

"I'm different from them. I'm completely on your side."

Until he left, Chen Tangtang didn't understand what he meant, but his eyes seemed to say that the poor monk was going to seduce ~ lure monsters...

What has he been thinking all day.

Chen Tangtang waited alone at the gate of the temple, and the little monk ran out after a while.

Seeing the sweat on his face, she wiped it for him.

But he hugged her arm, looked at Chen Tangtang blankly, and whispered: "Brother Elder, you are so kind to me, I like you so much."

"Stupid boy." Chen Tangtang stroked his bald head which felt good to the touch.

"Come." Chen Tangtang smiled and handed him his hand.

In his eyes, that white and warm hand seemed to be emitting a bright golden light.

He tried to touch it, then grabbed it tightly.

"I don't want to let go." He lowered his head and said.

Chen Tangtang was helpless: "You shouldn't let go, there are so many people on the street, what will you do if you accidentally lose it?"

He smiled and said, "No, even if I lose it, I just want to..."

A flatbed cart with lanterns passed by, interrupting the novice monk.

"By the way, the poor monk still doesn't know how to address you?"

The novice narrowed his eyes and looked innocent, "My name is Pichen."

This number is good.

Chen Tangtang was dragged all over the street by Pi Chen, when a turbulent crowd of people rushed over, she let go of her hand, and then turned around, only to find that Pi Chen had disappeared in front of her eyes.

Too bad, the poor monk lost Pichen, how can he explain to the abbot when he goes back, and I don't know if Pichen will get lost.

Chen Tangtang no longer had the heart to look at the lanterns, and kept staring at the people around him, trying to find Pichen like a headless chicken.

She turned around, took a step back, and hit something on her back.

Chen Tangtang hurriedly turned around to apologize, but what caught his eyes was a rhinoceros mask.

She widened her eyes.

A muffled laugh came from behind the mask.

"Sorry, did I scare you?"

The man wearing the mask supported her arm with one hand, and put his other hand behind his head. With a slight twitch, the silk ribbon tied with the mask was pulled away by him, and the hideous mask fell off.

The lantern city is full of flowers like daytime, but the lanterns all over the city are not as bright as the face in front of me.

When he was not smiling, his face was already like a star. When he smiled, a sweet dimple appeared on his right cheek, his face was like the sun and the moon.

Zhaozhao is like the brightness of the sun and the moon, and Lili is like the journey of stars.

Chen Tangtang sighed in his heart, lowered his eyes and said: "Sorry, it was the poor monk who bumped into the benefactor."

The man said clearly: "Where, I should also thank you, elder."

Chen Tangtang was puzzled.

He said with a smile: "To be able to meet such a noble and handsome master like the elder on such a beautiful day, doesn't it mean that I will have good luck this year?"

He laughed loudly and leaned towards Chen Tangtang, "Thank you elder for bumping into me and bringing me good luck."

Although he was good-looking and well-spoken, Chen Tangtang really wanted to tell him—please stop holding the poor monk.

It hurts.
