Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 216 World of Famous Works 5

After putting the fake golden headband on his head, Sun Wukong solemnly bowed to Lin Xiaoqian and thanked him.

"Thank you for saving me, fairy. I don't know your name, so I, old Sun, can also know my benefactor's name."

It seems they mistook Lin Xiaoqian for some fairy descended from heaven.

Lin Xiaoqian quickly waved his hand: "Brother Monkey, don't be so polite. I just can't stand how the Buddhist sect bullies people like this. My name is Lin Xiaoqian."

"So it's Miss Lin, thank you very much."

Lin Xiaoqian said somewhat shyly, "I'll call you Brother Monkey, you can just call me Xiaoqian. Also, I have a few companions who would like to get to know you. Do you think it's convenient for you to meet them now?"

Sun Wukong laughed heartily, "Miss Lin's friend is my friend too, so don't bother with any questions about convenience."

Lin Xiaoqian quickly called Mo Ying and the others out.

Sun Wukong suddenly saw three people appear out of thin air, and guessed that Lin Xiaoqian and the others must be the juniors of some powerful immortal, each possessing extraordinary skills.

Liao Zhuang waved to him, his eyes revealing a hint of admiration: "Haha! Great Sage, my name is Liao Zhuang."

Jiang Shuang greeted him with a smile: "Great Sage, I've heard so much about you! My name is Jiang Shuang."

Mo Ying nodded, her eyes revealing her appreciation for him: "Mo Ying."

Sun Wukong winked at Mo Ying and blurted out, "You're a demon!"

Mo Ying knew he had discerning eyes, so it wasn't surprising that he could tell he was a demon.

"Huh? Although you are also a demon, you are somewhat strange, and you also resemble a human immortal?"

Unbeknownst to him, Mo Ying possessed Primordial Purple Qi, which had reshaped his demonic body, achieving a strange balance between demon and human immortal.

"Great Sage, you have excellent eyesight." Mo Ying also called out to the Great Sage along with the others.

Seeing that Mo Ying didn't explain, Sun Wukong didn't dwell on the matter and laughed, "Haha, my three young friends, I, Old Sun, greet you!" Sun Wukong clasped his hands in a fist salute, his eyes gleaming.

With a pure heart, he could see through the good and evil in people's hearts at a glance, and he felt a strong sense of kindness from Lin Xiaoqian and the others.

Although he didn't know why these people were so kind to him, no one would have the heart to refuse such kindness.

"I'm extremely happy to have made so many new friends today. I should have enjoyed a few drinks, but I need to get back to Tang Sanzang's side as soon as possible so he doesn't notice anything amiss."

Lin Xiaoqian took out a communicator and handed it to Sun Wukong: "Brother Monkey, we will keep an eye on you. You can take this and contact us. You can also chat with us when you have nothing to do."

Sun Wukong looked at the communicator in his hand and fiddled with it curiously.

"what is this?"

Lin Xiaoqian taught him how to use the communicator. Sun Wukong was amazed when he saw his own and Lin Xiaoqian's faces appear on the communicator.

"Good baby!"

He was very clever and learned it in no time, and also mastered many other functions on his own.

"Thank you all! I, Old Sun, will be off now!"

After saying that, he somersaulted and flew towards the direction where Tang Sanzang was.

The clone found an excuse to go to a secluded place. Sun Wukong told the clone to return to Lin Xiaoqian's side, and then he returned to Tang Sanzang's side.

The reason he didn't restore his clone to its original form was because he was afraid that if the golden headband became ineffective in the future, Tang Sanzang wouldn't be able to detect it when he recited the Tightening-Headband Mantra again, thus revealing the secret.

When Lin Xiaoqian heard Sun Wukong's doubts, he strongly urged him to place his clone here with them.

It was at this moment that Sun Wukong learned through his clone that there was a huge house flying in the sky that no one could see.

Sun Wukong returned to Tang Sanzang's side, and the two continued their journey together, but this time they had already drifted apart.

He learned from Lin Xiaoqian that the Buddhist sect attached great importance to this journey to the west, and that he had no way to escape it.

Five hundred years of trials had worn away much of his once arrogant and unrestrained nature, making him much more composed. He no longer thought about running away, but only planned how to find an opportunity to settle this score with Tathagata in the future.

However, although he didn't run away, he wasn't as dedicated to his work along the way.

On this very day, they arrived at Eagle's Sorrow Stream in Snake Coil Mountain, when suddenly a dragon emerged from the stream and charged straight at Tang Sanzang.

He originally intended to do nothing, let the dragon simply tear off Tang Sanzang and eat him, so that he could live a carefree and happy life.

But remembering what he had overheard while chatting with Lin Xiaoqian and the others last night, he still leaped up and grabbed Tang Sanzang.

That's right, it was a lifting motion, a lifting motion by the back of the neck, so tight that Tang Sanzang's face turned red and the veins on his neck bulged out.

Lin Xiaoqian, who was watching from the sky, turned her head and asked, "Didn't the original story say it was an embrace?"

Liao Zhuang said, "Be content. After knowing the truth, it's already good enough that Brother Monkey can still go to save Tang Sanzang. It's just for show, to avoid the Buddhist sect finding out."

Sun Wukong put Tang Sanzang down, but Tang Sanzang was not grateful for his saving his life. Instead, he complained that he was being held too tightly.

Sun Wukong thought to himself: I'm being lenient by not strangling you to death.

Then Tang Sanzang became sad again, saying, "How can I travel through these thousands of mountains and rivers without flattery?" and then he started to cry.

Sun Wukong was annoyed by what he heard, rolled his eyes inwardly, and pretended to say to Tang Sanzang, "You wait here, I'll go find that white dragon."

Unexpectedly, Tang Sanzang refused, saying, "If you go to find him, what if he secretly tries to harm me again?"

Sun Wukong was so angry he almost laughed. He said irritably, "You want to ride a horse but won't let me go. Then you might as well sit here and never leave."

After saying this, Sun Wukong glanced sideways at the sky.

Sure enough, not long after, a group of immortals flew down from the sky, claiming to be sent by Guanyin Bodhisattva to secretly protect the chosen one.

Sun Wukong thought to himself, "If so many gods are protecting us, why didn't they come to our rescue earlier? We just watched helplessly as the monk's horse was eaten."

They're really treating me like a donkey.

Sun Wukong pretended to ask the gods to stay and protect Tang Sanzang, while he went to find the little white dragon.

In reality, they flew up into the sky to find Lin Xiaoqian and the others.

He plopped down on the sofa, grabbed a peach from the coffee table, and took a big bite.

"This is infuriating! The Buddhist sect's actions are exactly as you described. Tang Sanzang has a whole bunch of immortals secretly protecting him, so what use is he to me?!"

Lin Xiaoqian poured him a glass of peach-flavored juice: "Brother Monkey, don't be angry, don't be angry. Who benefits from getting sick from anger?"

Mo Ying said, "You can't stay here too long. I reckon Guanyin might be waiting for you at the entrance of the White Dragon's house. You need to hurry and find the White Dragon."

Sun Wukong sighed, "This little white dragon is quite a pitiful creature. He'll have to turn into a horse for that monk to ride on."
