Preventing Horse Dropping Every Day
Chapter 13
After traveling for more than ten days, Cheng Mu and the other three arrived at a wide and large river. The river blocked their way, and there was not a single boat on the river.
Tang Seng sat on his horse and looked at the river in front of him, sighing, "The river is so wide, and there is no boat on it. How are we going to cross it?
“
Pigsy also echoed, "Yeah, if it were just me, Eldest Senior Brother, and Cheng Mu, we would be able to cross it with just a flip. But Master, you are a mortal, and you can't use magic to obtain the scriptures. This is going to be extremely difficult.
“
Upon hearing Pigsy's words, Tang Seng narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Pigsy, are you blaming me? Are you blaming me for dragging you guys down?"
Seeing that Tang Seng was angry, Pigsy quickly shook his head and waved his hands, "How can we protect Master? It is our duty to go to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures."
Even if Pigsy was complaining about Tang Seng in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud. If this monk went to Buddha to complain about him, he would be in deep trouble.
Tang Seng sneered in his heart. In the past ten days, he had figured out Pigsy's character. He was really a greedy, gluttonous, and lazy person. If it weren't for Avalokitesvara's order, he wouldn't have taken this fat pig as his disciple.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Tang Seng looked at Cheng Mu and Monkey King, who were standing in front of a stone tablet. He rode over on his horse and said in a bad tone, "Why are you two standing here instead of thinking about how to cross the river?"
Cheng Mu still felt uncomfortable about what he had done before when he heard Tang Seng's words. He didn't say anything and just touched the stone tablet in front of him with his finger. As for Monkey King, he still had to act on the surface. He knew that his lover was in a bad mood, so he held Cheng Mu's other hand to comfort him. He replied to Tang Seng, "Cheng Mu and I just happened to find the name of this river engraved on it, so we wanted to see if we could find anything."
Tang Seng fixed his eyes on the stone tablet. There were three big words written on it: Quicksand River. Quicksand River was the name of this river.
Tang Seng glanced at it and then stopped looking. Instead, he said to Monkey King, "I have an idea. Since there is no boat, why don't you make one? Then we can cross the river."
Monkey King smiled bitterly and said, "Master, it's not that I don't want to. It's just that this river is really strange. Nothing can float on it at all. Even a feather will sink immediately."
After that, Monkey King made a boat appear. Then Tang Seng saw the boat sink at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tang Seng was surprised and said, "I didn't expect there to be such a strange river in this world. Now it will be even more difficult for us to cross this river."
He was still a little skeptical about what Monkey King said and thought that he was lying to him. He didn't expect it to be true.
At this moment, there was a loud noise on the originally calm river. Then, a path opened up in the middle of the river, and a monster walked out. He looked fierce, with red curly hair, a blue face, and a pair of round eyes. There were nine human skulls hanging around his neck, and he held a stick in his hand.
After the Red Hair Monster came ashore, he ran directly to Tang Seng, who was still on the horse. Tang Seng was shocked and immediately turned his horse around and ran forward.
The Red Hair Monster was about to chase after him, but he was stopped by Pigsy. He raised the nine-toothed rake in his hand and spat at the monster, "Today, I will let you have a taste of my rake. I will let you know the power of Marshal Tianpeng."
When the Red Hair Monster saw Pigsy attacking him, he naturally wouldn't stand there and be beaten. Instead, he raised the stick in his hand and hit Pigsy. He also said sarcastically, "Marshal Tianpeng, but in my impression, although Marshal Tianpeng's appearance is not considered handsome, he is still a passable person. How did he become like a pig now?
“
When Pigsy heard the Red-headed Monster's insulting words, he raised his rake in exasperation and continued to hit the Red-headed Monster.
The figures of the two people immediately intertwined, but because their strength was about the same, the Red Hair Monster and Pigsy had already fought back and forth for more than 20 times, but there was still no winner.
Cheng Mu and Monkey King were sitting on the side and watching the battle in front of them calmly, but they didn't have the slightest intention of going up to help.
As Pigsy and the Red Hair Monster fought, they gradually began to fight. When he turned his head and saw Monkey King and Cheng Mu sitting there and watching him fight, he was annoyed and reprimanded without thinking, "Senior Brother Cheng Mu, why didn't you come to help? Can't you see that your junior brother is almost unable to hold on? If this monster escapes, let's see what you can do."
Monkey King transformed his Jingu Bang, stood up unhurriedly, and walked towards the Red-headed Monster. When Pigsy saw Monkey King coming, he retreated and then watched Monkey King and the monster fight. At this time, Tang Seng, who had already run to the front, also slowly rushed back on his white horse.
As for Cheng Mu, because Brother Wukong specifically warned him not to let him help later, this was his plan. He didn't know what a plan was, but as long as Brother Wukong asked him to do it, he would do it one by one.
The fight between Monkey King and the Red-headed Monster became more and more intense. Just when the Red-headed Monster couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, the man in front of him suddenly stopped. Although it was only for a few seconds, it was enough for him to escape back into the water.
Seeing the Red-headed Monster escape back into the water, Monkey King put away his Jingu Bang and did not chase after it. He flew down from the sky and returned to the ground.
Cheng Mu stood up at this time, took the handkerchief that he had prepared, walked in front of Monkey King, and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead.
