Subduing Zhu Ganglie
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Ganglie felt as if he had been electrocuted.
He stood there, stunned, for a long time before he could react.
What did you mean by that?
Sun Wukong glared at him fiercely.
"What do you mean? The pilgrim you were waiting for is now my master Tang Xuanzang."
"Hurry back with me to see him. Luckily, you black pig talk fast enough."
"Otherwise, Old Sun, would have smashed this stick into your head."
Sun Wukong said this with a helpless expression, then turned around and left.
At this moment, Zhu Ganglie still had a completely bewildered expression on his face.
After a long silence, he finally realized what was happening.
"Hahaha, you've been causing Keeper of the Heavenly Horses for so long, turns out you're just my unlucky senior brother!"
Sun Wukong immediately lost interest in wasting any more words with the Black Pig Spirit.
Immediately afterwards, the two rode the clouds and arrived at the courtyard of Old Gao Village.
At this moment, the Squire Gao and Gao Cuilan were still embracing each other, exchanging pleasantries.
After all, the father and daughter hadn't seen each other for several years, so it was normal.
As for Tang Xuanzang, he sat on the other side meditating and recuperating.
But as soon as the two landed, the expression on the Squire Gao's face immediately changed.
They stared at the monkey and the pig opposite them with expressions of fear.
"Why is that black pig out again? Master, Master!"
Tang Xuanzang was startled by the Squire Gao and quickly opened his eyes.
Upon seeing this scene, he was completely bewildered and had no idea what had happened.
"My disciple, is this the big black pig that Squire Gao mentioned?"
Sun Wukong nodded.
"Yes, Master, this is the idiot."
"Squire Gao, don't be afraid. This fool isn't a monster. You can rest assured."
With me Old Sun, here, he naturally wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
Although the Squire Gao was filled with fear, he still obeyed Sun Wukong's words and nodded slightly.
However, he and his daughter Gao Cuilan hid in another corner.
Zhu Ganglie had been all righteous and indignant just moments before, but the moment he saw Gao Cuilan again, he couldn't take his eyes off her.
His gaze kept roaming over Gao Cuilan, which annoyed Sun Wukong.
Immediately afterward, Sun Wukong raised his hand and slapped Zhu Ganglie across the face.
Zhu Ganglie instinctively turned his head.
"You idiot!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Sun Wukong grabbed Zhu Ganglie's ear and twisted it.
"Ouch, stop it, it hurts!"
"You little Keeper of the Heavenly Horses, let go of this Old Zhu!"
"Do you want another blow from my Old Sun?"
Zhu Ganglie wilted after hearing Sun Wukong's words.
He fell silent, then looked at Tang Xuanzang Sun Wukong him.
Master, let this idiot tell you himself.
Zhu Ganglie naturally knew what he should do, so he quickly shook his head, preparing to put aside his personal feelings for his children first.
At the same time, Zhu Ganglie looked at Tang Xuanzang opposite him and walked towards Tang Xuanzang step by step without the slightest hesitation.
Tang Xuanzang instinctively took two steps back.
"This benefactor must have Buddha in his heart."
Originally, Tang Xuanzang wanted to use his own abilities to convert Zhu Ganglie.
But to everyone's surprise, the next second Zhu Ganglie suddenly knelt down on the ground with a thud.
This left Tang Xuanzang, Squire Gao completely stunned.
Even Tang Xuanzang himself was dumbfounded; was his skill in transmitting Buddhist teachings really that powerful?
He'd only said a single, simple sentence, so why did this Black Pig Spirit kneel down before him?
They completely defy expectations.
The next second, Zhu Ganglie spoke.
"Master! It was Bodhisattva Guanyin who told me to wait for you here."
He told me to wait for a pilgrim to accompany him on his journey to the Western Heaven, and that I should protect you!
Zhu Ganglie) across from them uttered this remark.
After he finished speaking, Tang Xuanzang was stunned on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Xuanzang subconsciously touched his head.
"Wait, what exactly did you mean by that?"
"You mean the Bodhisattva sent you to find me?"
Zhu Ganglie nodded.
"I was originally Marshal Tianpeng of the Heavenly Court, in command of 800,000 naval troops."
"He was banished to the mortal realm for harassing Chang'e while drunk, and has now endured thirty-six lifetimes of suffering."
"He could have been reincarnated as a human, but who knew that when he went to be reincarnated in the mortal world, he would accidentally be reborn as a pig."
Although it sounded like a tragic story, Sun Wukong couldn't help but laugh after hearing this guy reveal his family background.
"Hehe, Old Sun knew it when we attacked the Heavenly Court, where was Marshal Tianpeng, who commanded 800,000 Heavenly River Navy?"
"After all that fuss, it turns out he was banished to the mortal realm for harassing Chang'e."
Zhu Ganglie waved his hand at Sun Wukong with a look of disgust.
"Go away, that's all in the past, don't bring it up."
Then Zhu Ganglie turned his head and looked at Gao Cuilan beside him.
"Cuilan, you must believe me, I, Old Zhu, am absolutely devoted to you, it's just that I didn't know you back then."
Just as Gao Cuilan was about to answer Zhu Ganglie, she was pulled behind her by the Squire Gao.
"Daughter, remember, never speak to this Black Pig Spirit."
Zhu Ganglie didn't say much, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Tang Xuanzang opposite him.
"I was about to be slaughtered and eaten, but I was saved by the Bodhisattva at the crucial moment."
"But the Bodhisattva, in his great compassion, allowed me, Old Zhu, to wait here in Old Gao Village for the pilgrims."
"But I never expected that this wait would last for more than fifty years. I, Old Zhu, couldn't stand the loneliness any longer, so I decided to become king of the mountain."
"Master, please don't be angry!"
The Zhu Ganglie across from them spoke those words, enunciating each one clearly.
Tang Monk nodded thoughtfully.
"Wukong, it seems the Bodhisattva foretold something good will happen in this battle. I didn't expect them to send us another disciple."
Sun Wukong curled his lip, looking completely unconvinced.
"What's the use of such a fool? He eats more than others, does less than others, and has no real skills whatsoever!"
Just as Tang Monk was about to speak, a cloud of mist suddenly drifted in.
The group instinctively turned their heads and saw that it was indeed Bodhisattva Guanyin.
When had Squire Gao, Gao Cuilan, and the Gao family's guards and subordinates ever seen such a spectacle?
Upon seeing that it was Bodhisattva Guanyin, they immediately became anxious and knelt on the ground.
"Bodhisattva... Bodhisattva has appeared to us!"
They were, after all, ordinary mortals, and naturally not as composed as Tang Xuanzang and his companions.
Tang Xuanzang immediately knelt down on both knees.
"Bodhisattva Guanyin, Tang Xuanzang is right on this side."
The Bodhisattva Guanyin opposite nodded gently.
"Tang Xuanzang, this Zhu Ganglie is your second disciple. He will protect you on your journey to the Western Heaven Paradise to obtain the scriptures, and he will certainly be taught by you along the way."
"You might be capable of this important task?"
