The Precious Kasaya Lost by Chance
"Could you please lend me your precious robe a little longer so I can look at it? I really want to see it; I haven't been able to sleep."
Just as Sun Wukong opened the door, the old monk grabbed his hand, tears streaming down his face, looking utterly pitiful. He said he had no other intentions; he simply wanted to borrow Tang Xuanzang's cassock.
These are Tang Xuanzang and Sun Wukong. Both of them are very fast. After seeing the old monk in this state, even though they were furious, there was nothing they could do about it.
So they could only give the old monk the treasure that Tang Xuanzang had given him so he could take it with him and admire it properly.
So the old monk got his wish and borrowed the precious cassock that Tang Xuanzang had wanted from both Sun Wukong and Tang Xuanzang.
After Sun Wukong handed him Tang Xuanzang's treasure, he excitedly Human Path them both repeatedly.
However, before Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang could respond...
Then the old monk, as happy as a child, skipped and hopped towards his house.
After the old monk opened his door, he placed Tang Xuanzong's cassock directly on his bed.
When Tang Xuanzang's robe came into his hands, the large gap in the old monk's robe was instantly sealed up. Although the robe didn't completely belong to him, it didn't affect his good mood at all.
After Tang Xuanzang's precious cassock came into his hands, his insomnia completely disappeared.
As soon as he touched the bed, he felt drowsy, and then he fell asleep holding Tang Xuanzang's precious cassock.
However, when the old monk woke up the next day, he found that the precious Gaza that Tang Xuanzang had been holding in his arms had disappeared.
He searched his residence thoroughly, turning it upside down and meticulously checking every corner dozens of times, but still couldn't find Tang Xuanzang's precious cassock.
The old monk was certain that he had slept with the precious robe last night, but when he woke up this morning, the robe was gone. This was simply illogical.
But even if it's illogical, it's already a fact. He begged and pleaded with everyone he knew last night to borrow Tang Sanzang's precious robe, all to fill the void in his heart. But this morning, Tang Sanzang's precious robe was gone.
How was he supposed to explain this to Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong?
"No, I need to find a way to gloss over this."
After the old monk discovered that Tang Sanzang's precious cassock had disappeared, the responsibility certainly lay with him; however, he genuinely didn't know how those treasures had been lost.
Therefore, he had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure: to fabricate a reason to convince Sun Wukong and Tang Monk of the truth.
"Old monk, old monk, please open the door! We agreed you could borrow that robe for the night."
"Now that a night has passed, you should return my master's robe."
Just as the old monk was racking his brains to fabricate the whereabouts of the cassock, Sun Wukong knocked on his door, urging the old monk to quickly bring out Tang Sanzang's precious cassock.
"Please wait a moment, I've encountered some problems here."
The old monk casually offered an excuse to buy time while simultaneously trying to come up with another one that would convince Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang.
"This old monk wouldn't be thinking of keeping my master's precious robe from us, would he? I knew I was right."
At this moment, Sun Wukong began to ponder in his heart what the old monk's intention was in doing this.
"I advise you to come over here quickly and open this door properly, otherwise, if I take matters into my own hands, it won't be as simple as just opening the door."
After realizing something was wrong, Sun Wukong immediately ordered the old monk to open the door and threatened him.
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, the old monk inside had no other choice but to bite the bullet and open the door to his room for Sun Wukong.
"Old monk, my master's precious cassock is here. Please bring it out quickly, as I need to continue my journey with my master today after I take it with me."
After Sun Wukong entered the room with the monk, he didn't follow the monk's instructions. Instead, he immediately asked the old monk to bring out Tang Sanzang's precious cassock.
"I, I..."
After hearing Sun Wukong's words, the old monk stammered and couldn't say a word.
"What's going on here? Did you lose my master's precious cassock? You'd better give me an explanation today, or I'll make you regret it."
Upon seeing the old monk's appearance, Sun Wukong immediately sensed that something was terribly wrong.
After looking around the old monk's room, he did not find Tang Sanzang's precious cassock.
So Sun Wukong immediately asked Tang Sanzang where his precious cassock had gone.
"It's true that your master's precious cassock is lost, but it can't be entirely said that it was lost; it was stolen by a demon."
After seeing how tightly Sun Wukong was pressing him, the old monk suddenly came up with this reason.
"You mean my master's precious cassock was stolen by a demon? Fine, I'll trust you one more time. Now tell me, which demon took that treasure, and where is that demon?"
After listening to the old monk's explanation, Sun Wukong was at a loss, because he couldn't be sure if the old monk was lying. He decided to go to the place the old monk mentioned to see if what the old monk said was true or false.
"No more than ten miles from my temple, there is a Black Wind Mountain, in which there is a Black Wind Cave, where a black bear lives. He is extremely greedy for treasure and comes to my temple to steal things from time to time."
"Moreover, he usually steals from my temple late at night when it's quiet, so I think your master's precious robe was stolen by this arrogant black bear."
When the old monk heard Sun Wukong asking him about the whereabouts of the monster, he decided to go all the way and told Sun Wukong where the black bear was.
He had already decided that once Sun Wukong left to search for the black bear, he would quickly pack up the things in the temple.
