Chapter 404: Tampered Books 5
Zhang Xintong left the old man's house and took out four wooden bowls with lids, one filled with shredded potatoes, one filled with tofu vermicelli, one filled with eggplant, and one filled with bok choy soup. There was no meat in these dishes, they were all fried in soybean oil, and they were too eye-catching for her to take.
Zhang Xintong also took out a new dagger and put it in her arms to cut the watermelon later, saying that she had it with her. As for the wooden bowl, it was given by the old man so that she could get things out later.
When Zhang Xintong and the monkey came back, Zhu Bajie saw the big watermelon at first sight and was extremely greedy.
"You are so awesome!"
Zhang Xintong......
Put the things on the big rock. Although there are no delicacies from land and sea, it is not bad.
Zhang Xintong wondered if Tang Seng and his companions had any rules against eating with women. Fearing they might find it awkward, she grabbed a bowl and scooped up some food herself, then sat down to eat with a pancake.
Zhu Bajie was the happiest and ate with a grunt.
After dinner, Zhang Xintong cut the watermelon. The White Dragon Horse and Zhu Bajie shared one watermelon, and Tang Monk, Sun Wukong, Sha Seng and Zhang Xintong shared one watermelon.
The watermelon was just as expected, red, sweet and delicious.
After eating the watermelon, Zhang Xintong came up to Sun Wukong.
"Big Brother, your hair is really useful, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bring back so many things, hehe!"
Zhang Xintong's eyes were sparkling, which made Sun Wukong a little confused. He pulled a handful of hair from his body and stuffed it into Zhang Xintong's hand.
Zhang Xintong's hands were covered with Sun Wukong's hairs, and she felt there were at least 1000 of them. She remembered that Sun Wukong had a hair, and since 1000 of them were not harmful, she reluctantly accepted them.
"Thank you, Big Brother. You are so kind!"
With Sun Wukong still there and the Yellow Robe Monster still absent, the master and his disciples quickly reached Baoxiang Kingdom. With customs documents in hand, Baoxiang Kingdom quickly processed their formalities, but they couldn't leave immediately. The king of Baoxiang Kingdom hosted a banquet for them. Unable to refuse such a generous offer, they stayed.
The king of Baoxiang Kingdom was old and in poor health. He was shocked when he saw Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie.
"Don't be afraid, King. Although my two disciples are ugly, they are not bad people."
The King of Baoxiang Kingdom had something to ask for and quickly calmed down.
"High Monk, my daughter Baihuaxiu has been captured by the Yellow Robe Monster. Could you please help?"
Tang Monk has the character of saving people. Although Princess Baihuaxiu did not let him go, he still chose to save people.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. These disciples of mine are all very capable and will definitely be able to rescue Princess Baihuaxiu."
The King of Baoxiang Kingdom was very anxious and didn't want to wait a moment, so Tang Seng had to let Sun Wukong set off immediately.
Zhang Xintong recalled the story of the Yellow Robe Monster and Princess Baihuaxiu.
He was originally Kuixing, one of the twenty-eight constellations in the sky, and a celestial official with great magical powers.
She was originally a jade maiden who served as incense burner in the temple of heaven, a graceful and elegant fairy from heaven.
The two fell in love freely, but the heaven would not tolerate adultery, so they resolutely gave up their status as immortals and came down to earth.
He wore a yellow robe and became the king of the mountain, becoming a man-eating monster, transforming from Kuimu Wolf into the Yellow Robe Monster.
She was reincarnated and became a princess of Baoxiang Kingdom, named Baihuaxiu.
One is a love-struck monster who can't forget his old love and is willing to do anything to rekindle it; the other is a mortal princess who has forgotten her past life and is waiting to be married.
This is destined to be a tragedy.
On a Mid-Autumn night, the Yellow Robe Monster forcibly abducted Baihuaxiu, married her in a cave, and lived together for thirteen years.
After marriage, the Yellow Robe Monster was a deeply caring husband, doting especially on Baihuaxiu. He said, "You wear brocade, you wear gold; if you lack anything, I'll find it. We enjoy each other year-round, and love each day." Later, when Tang Sanzang strayed into a cave, the Yellow Robe Monster naturally desired to eat the flesh of Tang Sanzang, but for no other reason than to be with his wife for eternity. Later, at Baihuaxiu's request, he disregarded his own prestige and the drooling of many other demons, and let Tang Sanzang go.
Although the Yellow Robe Monster was not an ordinary person, his treatment of his wife was beyond the reach of ordinary people. However, Bai Huaxiu, who had forgotten her past, did not think so and she wanted to escape all the time.
In front of her, the Yellow Robe Monster always spoke softly and obeyed her orders, so why didn't Baihuaxiu care about the Yellow Robe Monster at all?
The reason is that the Yellow Robe Monster is ugly. He has "an indigo face, white fangs, and a big mouth. The messy sideburns on both sides are all dyed with rouge; the three or four purple beards are as tall as lychee buds. The nose is arched like a parrot's beak, and the eyes are like the morning stars. The two fists are like monk's alms bowls; the pair of blue feet are like cliff branches. The light yellow robe is draped diagonally, which is better than the brocade cassock." How can people not be afraid when such a person is around?
After the Yellow Robe Monster was subdued by Sun Wukong, the tragedy slowly came to an end and Baihuaxiu returned to Baoxiang Kingdom.
The Yellow Robe Monster was also recalled by the Jade Emperor, who asked him, "Kui Mulang, there are endless wonders in the upper realm, but you don't want to enjoy them, and instead you go away secretly. Why?" Kui Mulang kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, the princess of Baoxiang Kingdom is not an ordinary person. She was originally a jade maiden who served incense in the Pixiang Hall. We fell in love, but for fear of defiling the holy land of Heaven, she went down to the lower realm first and was reborn in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace. I lived up to the previous dynasty, transformed myself into a demon, occupied a famous mountain, took her to a cave, and have been husband and wife with her for thirteen years."
The Yellow Robe Monster came to the mortal world for thirteen days without permission and committed all kinds of sins. The Jade Emperor demoted him to burn the elixir furnace for the Jade Emperor, and he was transformed from a star to a cook.
It is said that the Yellow Robe Monster brought this upon himself, harming others as well as himself.
But in his heart, he also had the most beautiful expectations for love. The Yellow Robe Monster said that he "did not disappoint the previous dynasty", which was such a beautiful word! Keeping promises is the most beautiful thing in love, but in the end, why did it turn into a tragedy?
The Yellow Robe Monster is undoubtedly affectionate. In his past and present lives, he only loves the Jade Girl, but his affection is too overbearing.
The Jade Girl was reincarnated as a human and had long forgotten her past life. However, she was abducted by a monster and became his wife for thirteen years. She stayed with the monster day and night and was not allowed a moment of freedom.
In order to renew his good relationship, Kuimulang went down to earth as a demon. After going through untold hardships, he finally found his beloved, but she was no longer the same person. They had once been in love and had made vows to each other, but now all of that was gone. It was a relationship that was destined to be fruitless. He gambled everything, but in return he only got a short thirteen years. It was really a great tragedy.
The Yellow Robe Monster could have lived a different life. With his abilities, he could have been a good general in heaven, and with his deep affection, he could have been a good husband.
But he couldn't let go, because staying together was their promise. For this promise, he even used extremely domineering means.
But he didn't know that in their emotional tragedy, forgetting was the original sin.
When the princess could no longer remember him, his stubbornness was useless, his persistence was useless, his domineering was useless, and even his affection was useless.
On second thought, if there was a magic weapon that could make the Jade Girl remember her past, would the ending of the story be different?
Baihuaxiu knew that she was once a fairy from heaven, and she also knew that the monster in front of her was Kuimulang, who had once been with her under the moon and flowers.
Perhaps she understood that now that they were human and demon, there was no turning back. The two of them understood each other, forgave each other, and kept the beautiful memories deep in their hearts. The Yellow Robe Monster no longer obsessed with rekindling their past relationship, but returned to heaven to become a divine general. Baihuaxiu devoted her life to Buddhism, spending decades in the ordinary human world.
Or perhaps, their love was so deep that it surpassed everything else. She was still a princess, and he, under his wife's teachings, was quick to follow her advice and used his magical powers to keep the area safe. He accompanied her through decades in the human world, and a love affair came to an end. The two had no regrets. She continued to reincarnate, and he returned to heaven to plead guilty and resume his post.
Buddha said that it takes five hundred glances in previous lives to get a chance to pass by someone in this life.
Zhang Xintong wanted to give Kuimulang and Yunu, or the Yellow Robe Monster and Princess Baihuaxiu, a chance to stay together for the rest of their lives in the mortal world.
