Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!

Chapter 20: Chapter 20 Let's eat meat!



Zhu Ganglie wanted to laugh when he heard this, but looking at the dark-faced monkey in front of him, he dared not. He had a feeling that the monkey was holding back a belly full of anger, just looking for someone to vent it on... He absolutely couldn't give him that opportunity.

So, while suppressing his laughter, Zhu Ganglie's eyes twinkled with mischief as he came up with a bad idea, "Why don't you continue performing? Master, go on, go on, ha..."

As soon as Sun Wukong heard this, he was about to say something when Tang Sanzang nodded in agreement, "Yes, continue performing, making money and indulging in a feast is the true way."

Sun Wukong's heart skipped a beat!

Joy surged in Zhu Ganglie's heart: "Humph, die monkey, today you made me embarrassed. Wait till you actually perform, I'll record it with the shadow-print stone and bring it to heaven, hehe...

It would be quite amusing to see the Great Sage Equalling Heaven being played like a monkey!"

Zhu Ganglie looked towards Tang Sanzang with great anticipation.

Tang Sanzang raised his hammer, and with a strike, the gong resounded shockingly!

Then, under Zhu Ganglie's extremely excited gaze and Sun Wukong's look of despair, he shouted, "Coming up next, monkey versus pig performance!"

Upon hearing this, both Zhu Ganglie and Sun Wukong were taken aback.

Then, their reactions were completely different.

Zhu Ganglie went from laughter to tears;

While Sun Wukong, clenching his fists, grinned viciously...

Then Zhu Ganglie jumped up high and exclaimed, "Hey hey hey... I never said I'd join your performance!"

Sun Wukong showed his teeth in a fierce grin, "Pig head, it's not up to you anymore? Watch out!"

As he spoke, Sun Wukong soared into the sky!

Seeing no escape, Zhu Ganglie summoned his nine-tooth rake with a wave of his hand, and while blocking from left to right, he turned and ran.

Sun Wukong quickly followed right behind, and the two of them disappeared into the distance.

Tang Sanzang looked up at the sky, and the White Dragon Horse came over, whispering, "Master, the performers have run away... Does this count as a failure for our first attempt at performing?"

Tang Sanzang nonchalantly said, "Who said the performance failed? Learn this!"

After speaking, Tang Sanzang raised the gong!

Bang!

"Ladies and gentlemen, I misspoke earlier, the first act is not about monkey versus pig but rather a pig-monkey long jump. You all saw the performance just now, isn't it time to pay?"

Upon hearing this, the White Dragon Horse immediately bowed its head as if it didn't recognize its shameless master.

However, to its surprise, the crowd not only wasn't angry but instead began to applaud and cheer, "Master, you are really humorous!"

"Are all demon-subduing acts done in such a way now?"

"We thought you were really playing with monkeys, but you were subduing demons!"

"You've driven away that demon, which makes you the benefactor of our Gao Village. We should pay you, we should pay! I'll start!"

"Me too!"

Rustle rustle...

Soon, a pile of copper coins and shards of silver, and even two or three large silver ingots, accumulated in front of Tang Sanzang!

The White Dragon Horse had an utterly dumbfounded expression plastered on its long face.

Only Tang Sanzang, eyes gleaming with avarice, was squatting there, joyously and laughingly picking up the money.

He had none of the self-awareness befitting a high monk...

Having secured the money, Tang Sanzang waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's eat the best and drink the spiciest!"

Although the White Dragon Horse somewhat looked down on his master, upon hearing about food, it didn't fuss too much. It started trotting along, wondering whether to eat roast chicken first or have a couple of good drinks.

Only to hear Tang Sanzang shout, "Boy, bring out all your best dishes and wine! Also, get some fine feed for this horse and take it aside to feed!"

The White Dragon Horse, upon hearing this, froze in place, its mind fixated on the words: "Get some fine feed, take it aside to feed... feed, take it aside!"

Damn it, that bald thief really treated him like a horse!

The waiter was also startled, "Esteemed master, are you sure you want wine?"

That was when Tang Sanzang remembered he looked like a monk... so he spread his hands and said, "I've returned to secular life."

The waiter finally understood and laughed, "It's not that, it's just all our wine was taken by that demon. Not just our inn, but the entire Great Tang Village doesn't have a drop of wine to sell."

Tang Sanzang smacked his lips, showing a face of regret as he said, "Well then... just bring the meat."

The waiter quickly agreed and then led the discontented White Dragon Horse away.

However, the waiter wasn't paying attention and the horse suddenly stood on its hind legs, untied its halter, and sneaked off towards the kitchen...

In the dining hall, Tang Sanzang had just sat down when he saw a man burst in laughing, "Boy, put everything the high monk eats today on my tab!"

Tang Sanzang looked up and saw an elderly man with a rosy complexion coming in.

Following behind him was a familiar face. During his monkey show earlier, this fellow had been present, cheering the loudest and clapping the hardest when Zhu Ganglie was being outsmarted.

The young man came forward to greet, "High monk, my name is Gao Cai, and this is my grandfather. Grandfather heard that you were here to vanquish demons and specifically wanted to meet you."

Old man Gao bowed and said, "High monk, I thank you."

Tang Sanzang was baffled and thought to himself, why is this guy thanking me for no reason?

But with free food available, he was naturally willing to eat without complaint, and so he replied with a gesture, "Amitabha, well... um... ahem... it's nothing. Would both of you like to sit down and eat something as well?"

Old man Gao repeatedly shook his head, "We have eaten already, high monk, please take your time. May I ask your Buddhist name and where you come from, and where you are going?"

Tang Sanzang reflexively answered, "This humble monk Tang Sanzang, from the Great Tang of the Eastern Lands, on my way to the Western Heaven to fetch scriptures."

Old man Gao didn't seem as surprised that Tang Sanzang ate meat as much as he did about Tang Sanzang's background, "So you are a high monk from the Eastern Lands, no wonder you possess such skills in demon-subduing, impressive, impressive!

To be honest, the pig demon you just drove away is my son-in-law."

Tang Sanzang was stunned. His son-in-law? He drove away his son-in-law, and he came to thank him?

Is this old man crazy?

Old man Gao hurriedly explained, "You see, high monk, the story goes back three years..."

Tang Sanzang, having nothing else to do, simply sat eating and drinking while he listened to the story, thoroughly enjoying himself.

It turned out that Old man Gao had three daughters. The eldest and the second daughters were already married, and the youngest daughter was reaching adulthood. Consequently, Old man Gao announced that he was looking for a groom from outside...

His idea was simple. With just three daughters, two had married far away, and he wanted to keep the last one home to take care of the old folks and to liven up the place.

Therefore, he planned to find a live-in son-in-law...

At this time, a dark-faced man came, claiming to be unattached and parentless from Fuling Mountain and not yet married, willing to stay and become a live-in son-in-law.

Additionally, this man was incredibly strong and capable of hard work.

Old man Gao agreed, but who would have known that this man could eat a meal meant for over ten people? That was bearable, but the key issue was his unpredictable temper.
