"It's already very difficult to be alive."

Yes, for these remaining remnants of Huaguo Mountain, and for the group of monsters who raised the banner of rebellion in the past, it is really not easy to stay alive.

Listening to the words of this tiger monster, Tang Monk could completely imagine what kind of life these monsters had lived in the past fifteen hundred years.

He didn't speak, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.

What would the monkey do if he knew their situation over the years?

Will he be angry? Will he get angry? Will he overturn the whole world like before?

I don’t know why, but I really hope to see that scene again, to see that extremely angry monkey roaring to the sky!

It's a pity that I can no longer see it.

————————————

Tang Seng withdrew his gaze from looking at Hu Roar and said calmly.

"Why are you here?"

This time Huxiao didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, under Tang Monk's casual gaze, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

"If not here, where else could it be?"

As he finished speaking, a trace of deep bitterness appeared on that rough and demonic face.

At the same moment, the big trees behind Tang Monk swayed slightly, and some tender grass on the lawn also swayed feebly, like leaves falling in the wind.

"If not here, where else could it be?"

Tang Monk smiled and nodded.

"That's right, where can you escape to? Where are there no heavenly soldiers and where are there no heavenly generals? But what I'm asking is, why are you hanging out with those foreign goblins?"

"Thanks to the awakening of Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Court has not used troops against the mortal world for more than a hundred years. Our situation has been much better in recent years, otherwise even a small one would not be able to break through. But, I heard that the Heavenly Dao thing has ended

Yes, holy monk, you guys must have more strength to protect yourself, right?"

Crossing his hands, Hu Xiao explained nervously, but he never dared to raise his head.

Tang Seng looked at him deeply.

"You didn't tell me the truth."

Hu Xiao's body trembled, but he calmed down instead, staring silently at his toes without saying a word.

After glancing at the silent tiger monster, Tang Monk patted the folds on his left shoulder and said calmly.

"But I don't plan to ask so many questions. After all, the holy monk in front of you is no longer the same holy monk back then."

Hu Xiao pursed the corners of his lips and nodded, "I understand, little one."

Turning around with his hands behind his back, Tang Seng looked at the slightly swaying tree behind him and asked softly.

"By the way, why haven't I seen you before?"

Hu Xiao scratched his head and said, "When I was young, I was just a soldier. It is impossible for a holy monk to have seen me."

Tang Seng was silent for a while, then nodded and said to himself, "That's right. Most of the people I saw back then were dead... I forgot that you were just a pawn. Those who came to kill me back then were all flowers.

Are the generals of Guoshan still alive?"

Huxiao shook his head.

"The generals either died in the hands of the Buddhists, or fell on the road where the holy monks went to obtain scriptures. The few who were there were all absent on the day when the holy monks ascended the Lingshan Mountain.

Already."

Tang Monk calmly looked at the full moon in the night sky, his eyes showing no fluctuations, just calm, deathly calm.

Gradually, many scenes appeared in front of his eyes, scenes that had appeared when he was Xuanzang.

In the dark and humid cave, the beautiful woman struggled to tug on his monk's robe.

"Let him go, okay? The Great Sage is already very tired. Don't let him continue walking."

"Monk, why did you lie to the Great Sage!"

"Holy monk, we don't have to rebel. We can listen to the words of heaven. Please let the great sage go. He can't become a Buddha. He can't become a Buddha!"

Between the high mountains and ridges, countless monsters came over the mountains and ridges, and then one by one they knelt down in the middle of the road.

"Great Sage, you can't go! You can't go!"

Tang Seng slowly closed his eyes.

——————————

"Do you still hate me?"

Tang Seng asked gently.

Huxiao shook his head.

"I didn't know or understand anything about Buddhism before. I thought the holy monk wanted the great sage to be your Buddhist dog, so we tricked him into traveling to the West. Later we realized that the holy monk was really the holy monk."

"A holy monk whose thousand-year Taoist heart was broken by just one word?"

Tang Seng raised the corners of his mouth and lightly mocked the white-robed monk who had made great aspirations in the past.

"I'm not a holy monk, I'm just an ordinary person trying to gain fame,"

Hu Xiao looked at Tang Seng blankly, not knowing what to say.

After living for so many years, he also thought that Tang Seng only wanted to create Tathagata, but he had no idea about the doctrinal dispute between them and the great wish of the white-robed monk in the past.

It's just... the holy monk seems to have changed a lot.

Although he only glanced at Tang Monk from a distance back then, Hu Xiao clearly remembered that the expression on the face of the monk riding the white horse was not as wild as it is now, and his every move showed an easy-going and generous attitude.

At that time, he looked very calm and natural, as if he was integrated with heaven and earth. When he smiled, he was gentle and elegant, his voice was also gentle, and his eyes were filled with compassion.

Looking at the Tang Monk in front of him again, Hu Xiao had a question in his mind.

Will a holy monk become what he is now if his Taoist heart is broken?

Will do.

——————————

Tang Seng looked at Hu Xiao, who lowered his head. Perhaps even they themselves did not expect that one day they, with such a big gap in status, would talk together.

It's just that Tang Seng was pitying these monsters out of pity.

"Ask, since I'm here, I will try my best to say something, but don't be ignorant. Lingshan's formation has no shortcomings. Even if it does, it will be useless just for you and the dozens of goblins in this garden.

.I can tell you very clearly that even if the millions of demons from your former Huaguo Mountain swarmed up, they would never be able to enter Lingshan Mountain! So, ask something meaningful."

Hu Xiao ignored the second half of Tang Seng's words. In fact, he could only hear the first half, because tonight, he came here just for the first half of Tang Seng's words. Even if he risked being discovered and strangled by Heaven, he would definitely do it.

You have to ask about that half sentence!

Taking a step forward, Hu Xiao's hands were so nervous that they had nowhere to put them, and he asked in a hurried and urgent tone.

"Holy Monk, great sage, are you okay?"

Tang Seng smiled and said, "I knew this was the sentence. I said, can you surprise me once? Can you silly monsters do something that will surprise me?"

Hu Xiao said nothing, his yellow eyes just stared at Tang Seng who was teasing him.

Seeing this, Tang Seng withdrew his gaze from him.

"It's pretty good. He spends all day in seclusion and chanting Buddha's name. He is more pious than me. The murderous aura in his body is gone. He hasn't taken out the stick for many years. He is kind-hearted to people and people. But I haven't seen him for a long time.

It’s almost three hundred years ago, right?”

After saying that, Tang Seng looked at Hu Xiao with cold eyes.

"It's best not to have any inferior thoughts. Enough people have died, and the person who saved him is the Buddha, the World Honored One. No one can save him unless he can realize it himself and defeat the Buddha himself.

Be patient with him, otherwise, you will just add more corpses."

Hu Xiao stared at his toes in loneliness, without saying a word.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Huxiao still didn't speak.

Tang Monk sighed.

"Speaking of it, you are really hardworking. It is estimated that Liu Ding Liujia will return to heaven today to report his duties, leaving only a Taoist body in that hotel. I know that as long as I don't step into that hotel, nothing will happen."

Shaking his head slightly, Tang Monk looked at the full moon that was about to set in the night sky.

"But you should also know that even if you are a Taoist body, he has sensed your existence tonight. When Liu Ding Liujia comes back, it will be difficult for you to escape this disaster."

"Just to force me to come out to see you? Just to hear what I say? Is it worth it?" Tang Seng looked at him with a wry smile.

Huxiao's furry hands crossed subconsciously and said.

"Actually, I'm not sure that the Holy Monk is really here. I felt a little bit of the Holy Monk's aura before, so I just gave it a try, but I didn't expect that you are really here."
