An Unexpected Situation

Before long, the woman's originally pale complexion gradually regained its rosy hue.

"A Chang, A Chang, where are you?"

After the lady received her loan, she called out the name of the homeowner and begged him to come over.

"I'm here, I'm here, A Qing."

A Chang circled around behind Tang Monk, grabbed A Qing's hand, and held it tightly as she spoke to him.

"I never thought you'd actually recover. I was thinking that if you didn't make it back, I'd dig a big hole and bury us both."

"Thank goodness, you've finally recovered."

The head of the household, A Chang, looked at his wife A Qing, with great excitement. I couldn't believe that my wife had recovered so quickly.

"A Qing, come quick! It was this eminent monk who used his Law Technique to cure your illness and save you."

We must thank him properly.

Finally, A Chang remembered that Tang Xuanzang, who had saved A Qing's life, was standing to the side.

He pulled A Qing along and began to thank Tang Xuanzang.

"Thank you, Venerable Monk! Thank you, Venerable Monk!"

The two of them then began to thank Tang Xuanzang repeatedly.

"There's no need for that. Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda. By saving you, I'm only increasing my merit, allowing me to go further on the path of Buddhism."

Tang Xuanzang accepted their kindness and then helped them up.

"Venerable monk, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go and make you something to eat right away."

Then A Chang thought that if Tang Xuanzang hadn't eaten yet, she would make him something to eat.

"No need, we already ate before we came here, and we killed the tiger after we had eaten."

"I'm already very grateful that you lent me your needle and thread so I could sew a tiger-skin coat for my apprentice."

Tang Xuanzang declined A Chang's offer of kindness and thanked him again for lending him his sincerity.

"Oh, A Qing, you just woke up, you don't know yet."

"This high monk and his disciple killed the tiger that ate our child, avenging our child."

At this moment, A Chang remembered the story of Tang Xuanzang killing a tiger to avenge his son, and told his wife this exciting news.

Is it true?

"Thank you so much, Venerable Monk, thank you for avenging my poor child."

Upon hearing this news, A Qing immediately got up, knelt on the bed, and thanked Tang Xuanzang.

"Please get up quickly, there's no need for that."

"The past is the past. Now you need to look to the future, live a good life, and fulfill the promise you made to A Chang to grow old together."

Tang Monk quickly persuaded him to rest and recuperate so that he could fulfill his promise to A Chang.

"Yes, I definitely will."

A Qing gave Tang Xuanzang a positive answer.

"Alright, A Chang, A Qing has just recovered and needs more rest. Let him continue to rest here, and we'll leave now."

Then Tang Xuanzang pulled A Chang away from the room.

After Tang Xuanzang left the room, he picked up the needle and thread that A Chang had given him and began to sew the tiger skin for Sun Wukong.

Unexpectedly, Tang Monk not only possessed Law Technique abilities and profound Buddhist knowledge, but he was also adept at needlework. In no time, the basic shape of a garment was gradually taking shape.

After measuring Sun Wukong's body, Tang Xuanzang determined the size of the garment and then devoted himself to making the tiger-skin coat for Sun Wukong.

Tang Xuanzang was skillful and quick at making clothes. Not long after the basic shape of the clothes appeared, he made a tiger-skin vest and a tiger-skin skirt for Sun Wukong in half an hour.

"Wukong, come and try these two outfits on, see if they suit you."

After finishing the two garments, they quickly called Sun Wukong over to try them on.

"Okay."

Sun Wukong came over, took the two garments from Tang Xuanzang's hands, and quickly put them on.

Unexpectedly, the first time Tang Xuanzang made clothes for Sun Wukong, the result was surprisingly well-fitting.

"Master, I never expected you to be so skillful. Thank you, Master."

After trying them on, Sun Wukong liked the two pieces of clothing very much and thanked Tang Xuanzang repeatedly.

"If you like it, then let's get going!"

After saying a few words, Tang Xuanzang pulled Sun Wukong along, preparing to continue their journey.

"Venerable monk, please wait a moment. It is already late. Why don't you stay here for the night and continue your journey the next morning?"

Just as they were about to leave, the homeowner A Chang, stopped them, wanting to let them stay the night to express their gratitude.

Zhao Quanzang initially wanted to refuse his kindness, but after seeing the sincere feelings in his eyes, he agreed.

Then A Chang invited them into the house, told them to sit down and do their own thing, and went to the kitchen to prepare food for them.

Soon after, A Chang brought them food, and after they ate, they quickly went to sleep.

He opened his eyes and the next morning's sunlight was already streaming through the window, shining on Tang Xuanzang's face.

After Xuanzang was awakened by the sunlight, he washed up, woke up Sun Wukong, and before A Cheng woke up, the two of them left the room.

They embarked on their westward journey.

Since the two of them left A Chang's house, they had been heading west, and nothing else had happened on the road these past few days; everything had been peaceful.

This made Sun Wukong a little uncomfortable; he felt itchy to practice his skills.

However, an opportunity for Sun Wukong to practice his skills soon came.

On this day, Sun Wukong led Tang Monk's white horse, which carried Tang Monk and his luggage, to this side of Eagle Grief Ravine.

"Master, please wait here for a moment. I'll go find you something to eat."

After Sun Wukong finished speaking to Tang Monk, he tied his white horse to a tree nearby and let it graze. Tang Monk then stood aside and waited for Sun Wukong to come over.

However, not long after Sun Wukong left, a giant creature flew out of Eagle Grief Ravine, flew up from below, charged directly at Tang Monk's white horse, swallowed the horse whole, and then flew away.

Tang Xuanzang stood to the side, completely dumbfounded. He hadn't even seen what it was that flew up from below Eagle Grief Ravine and snatched away his white horse.

Because this giant creature flew up from below and snatched away Tang Monk's white horse in less than three breaths.

His speed is exceptional; he's clearly a veteran.

"Um?"

"The noise is coming from behind! Something's wrong! Master might be in danger!"
