At first glance, I saw that the person in the mirror was wearing a blood-red robe, with long hair flowing in the wind.
She looked down at the common people, her charming face as cold and arrogant as frost.
And she suddenly appeared in the mirror, and the divine light around her lingered endlessly with her every move, sometimes clear and sometimes blurry and distorted.
the other side! ?
A familiar name subconsciously appeared in Tang Sanzang's mind.
Yes, the woman who appears in the mirror is her old friend in the real world.
But she also appeared in his memories of the past nine lives!
But now, through the layers of divine light, she strangely appeared in the mirror and appeared in front of him again!
However, the other side that appears in the mirror does not seem to be an illusion.
She seemed to hear the movement next to her, but she slowly turned around and looked at Tang Sanzang with a pair of beautiful eyes.
"Tang Sanzang, I will wait for you on the road to the west. In this life... you will never escape my grasp again!"
She smiled, and the prohibitive coldness was like ice and snow melting in the warm spring.
And the voice that came from her, as familiar as the sound of nature, also lingered in Tang Sanzang's mind...
"Master? Master! Wake up!"
However, just when he wanted to say something to the person in the mirror, Sha Wujing's voice suddenly sounded from his ears, forcibly bringing him back to reality.
In an instant, the divine light receded from the depths of his consciousness, and the other shore that appeared in the mirror turned into clouds and disappeared before his eyes.
Like Zhu Bajie before, Tang Sanzang was also shocked into a cold sweat at this time, and his face turned pale instantly.
"It's nothing, it's just that there's something really weird in this mirror!"
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Tang Sanzang responded to Sha Wujing like this, but felt a lingering fear in his heart.
The current Mojiazhuang was transformed by four Bodhisattvas, and this strange mirror undoubtedly came from their magic weapons.
But what is the purpose of Bodhisattvas and others deliberately placing this mirror here that can induce hallucinations or reflect people's hearts?
Could it be that they wanted to use this to get a glimpse of something unknown in the hearts of their masters and disciples?
Tang Sanzang was suspicious, but under the urging of several disciples, he didn't think about it any further.
Then he walked through the gate and left Mojiazhuang.
"First Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother, what exactly did you see in the mirror just now? Why did you all look so panicked all of a sudden?"
After returning to the mountains and forests, Sha Wujing asked curiously while carrying his burden.
"I just saw a very scary white skeleton in the mirror. It scared me so much!"
In response, Zhu Bajie muttered, "I don't know what this Lishan old woman wants to do. She got this broken mirror for nothing and pretends to be a ghost to scare people!"
"White bones? But why did I see a fairy in purple?"
After hearing this, Sun Wukong was slightly surprised.
"What kind of fairy is she? Brother Monkey, why don't you tell her?"
Bajie suddenly became interested and asked him.
"Humph, it's just a lunatic!"
"What do you mean, I am an unparalleled hero. One day I will step on the colorful auspicious clouds to marry her!"
"I'm really sick. My grandson is the Monkey King. If he really wants to start a family, he should marry a female monkey who is only one in a million. How can he be interested in a woman who makes monkeys sick?"
Sun Wukong waved his hands as he spoke, looking quite disgusted.
"By the way, Master, what did you see just now?"
After saying that, Wukong looked at Tang Sanzang with great interest.
"Um... Disciples, it's getting late. We'd better hurry up and don't waste time talking nonsense!"
Tang Sanzang quickly changed the topic and chose not to talk about the other side.
According to what the two of them have just said, it is obvious that what everyone sees in the mirror is different.
What Bajie saw were bones, Wukong saw a fairy in purple, but what he saw was an old friend from the world of mortals.
It’s just that what the three people saw in the mirror, I don’t know what the meaning is...
"Master, Mother Lishan and the three Bodhisattvas came here in person to test whether our Zen hearts are firm. But the test has not really begun yet, and the few of us suddenly left without saying goodbye. Wouldn't it be too offensive? "
At this moment, Sun Wukong said to Tang Sanzang again.
Tang Sanzang nodded and found that his worries were justified.
The reason why everyone left in a hurry just now was because Bajie talked too much and they stayed away to avoid embarrassment.
But the Bodhisattva has the dignity of a Bodhisattva. Even if everyone has known their identities for a long time, as subordinates, they should cooperate with them and continue to perform this drama.
Firstly, it is to maintain the face of the leaders, secondly, it is to show the sincerity of the employees, and thirdly, it is to make the leaders feel that their decisions are wise and correct.
But now Tang Sanzang and the others left without saying goodbye, which somewhat made the Bodhisattvas feel shameless.
If one day I ask for something again, these Bodhisattvas may take what happened today as an excuse!
Oh, this damn workplace culture!
"In that case, we still have to send someone back to Mojiazhuang to finish the drama of the Four Saints testing their Zen hearts!"
Tang Sanzang rubbed his head in embarrassment, and then glanced at Sun Wukong.
"Wukong, since you raised this question, why don't I let you go back, so that you can give an explanation to the Bodhisattvas and win their favor?"
"No, no, no, I'm not going!"
Sun Wukong shook his head like a rattle, "If they turned into female monkeys, my heart might be moved for a moment. Women? Not interested, don't do it!"
"What about Wu Jing? How about you go?"
"I?"
In response to this, Sha Wujing stared angrily, "My disciple, I am a straight man, what I hate most in my life is women and wealth! If they turn into women and tease me again and again, I am afraid that I don't have enough concentration, so I will beat them down with a Zen stick... "
"Well..."
Tang Sanzang couldn't help feeling a chill down his back and glanced at Xiao Bailong again.
Under his malicious gaze, the little white dragon trembled for no reason, and immediately transformed into a white horse, gnawing at the roadside grass.
"Master, the little white dragon is your car. If he goes, it will not be a honor to the Bodhisattva, but a slap in their face!"
Before Xiao Bailong could respond, Zhu Bajie spoke, "Actually, among the five masters and apprentices, you are the only one who looks like a human being, and you are also young, handsome, and good-looking. In my opinion, it is best for Master to go alone!" "
"This is absolutely impossible!"
Tang Sanzang repeatedly refused, "As a teacher, I am naturally thin-skinned. I will inevitably have to meet with you Bodhisattvas frequently in the future. If I go today, how can I continue to work together in the future?"
"This won't work, and that won't work either. Master, tell me, who is the most suitable person to attend this Hongmen Banquet?"
For this reason, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but feel worried.
After hearing this, the other four people seemed to realize something, and they all looked at him in unison.
Zhu Bajie felt goosebumps suddenly appear all over his body, and he shivered for no reason.
"You...what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"
Looking at the malicious eyes of everyone, Zhu Bajie suddenly panicked, and a very bad premonition immediately came to his mind.
"Bajie, it was Old Mother Lishan whom you teased just now. Don't you want to atone for your sins?"
